Well, one thing you might want to do before doubling down on the Oksvold study is work out the percentage of those papers that were likely to have misused western blot images (it's the bulk of the paper, impossible to miss), and then read the part of the Ars article (again: the bulk of the article) that discusses reasons why different experiments might have identical western blot images (one obvious one being that multiple experiments might get run in the same assay).

Instead, you're repeatedly citing this 25% number as if it was something the paper established. Even the author of the paper disagrees with you.
Indeed, the claim needs to be adjusted to be correct. One of the worst recent years was 2005: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doping_at_the_Tour_de_France#2...

There, the claim is that of the top 10 finishers, all but one participant were either stripped of result in that race or failed tests/were sanctioned for doping in another race.

(The remaining participant, originally #8 Cadel Evans, was a documented client of Michele Ferrari.)
honestly, with mocks and good type checking, I don't see why it wouldn't be valid testing
Not even employees at FAANMG companies would sit around in SF and burn their salary to live in a tiny 3 bedroom apartment. Or let alone 'millionaires' over-leveraging on mansions in SF and using their stock as collateral to live there.

These houses might as well have been made of quick sand for your money. It seems a crash is on the horizon for those unable to pay such prices.

Seriously though I do like the workflow you've put together with KeenWrite. I have a potential application where it might be a great fit to replace some markdown->pdf workflows I have built. In my case, I use a Front Matter header to pass structured data along with the markdown to generate templated HTML which can then be "typeset" with the extensions provided by HTMLDOC or wkhtmltopdf.

Thanks again for posting and replying. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Ooh I'm excited to hear a pianist who compares to Brad Mehldau.

While we're at it, just in case there is -- is there any classical composer you know of comparable to Lowell Liebermann[1]?

There's been some interesting stuff about cooling the body for exercise performance, and they've found that the soles of the feet, the palms of the hands, and the cheeks are the locations that are most efficient in applying the cooling.

So perhaps just "cool boots" might be enough.
Thing is, the dark tint isn't that great at blocking IR. It's blocking more visible light than IR.

So, yeah -- the stuff that actually blocks IR is more expensive. But if you really want to block IR, then that's what you should be getting.

Otherwise, if you're getting the dark tint, then you should be honest with yourself about what it is that you're primarily blocking.

> why people (especially in the US) have a desire to split everything into two opposing sides

Fundamentally, this is a typical strategy for the human mind and even organisms in general, to understand the world by categorizing it into opposing pairs: light/dark, hot/cold, life/death, up/down, left/right. This is often discussed in Buddhism, for example, there is a whole school of tradition called "Not Two" that focuses on going beyond this illusion of duality.

About how polar opposition seems to be stronger in the U.S., in my opinion that's due to the weaponization of culture in the country, how the media is used to manipulate the public into outrage and conflict. It's a form of social control that's pretty much everywhere, but it seems to have especially reached a boiling point in the U.S. in recent years.

It's a primitive, simplistic and reductive way of looking at the world, ignoring the spectrum in between the opposing sides, which are arbitrary anyway.

Maybe there are introverts, extroverts, various mixtures between, and even hyperverts or transverts who prefer one side or the other depending on their mood or life stages.
Please don’t call this the "correct" solution. It might work for you; it's not a general rule or widely accepted best practice.

Generating a key per host is just a different security model than key forwarding, and arguably a worse one if key forwarding is done defensively (i.e. forward a separate key, with only those permissions you would give to a key present on the connected host itself).
You just did it again, trying to steer the conversation to something that not at the heart of the discussion. This is the parent:

It's clear by now this isn't the case of a few bad apples - our scientific institutions are systemically broken in ways that promote spreading fraudulent results as established scientific truth

This is a concern about the corrupted institutions, with the downstream concern that science itself may be under threat. The primary concern is the systemically broken institutions who promote the fraudulent to the top of their hierarchies. Not sure why you insist on straw manning this thing, but clearly you have some person reason for doing so, and I wish you luck in that endeavor.
One of the earliest incidents I worked on in the late 90s involved students DDOSing a university webserver in anticipation of exam results being posted. The server load was so high we had to pull the physical plugs on the server. :/

We're no closer. Like you say, we're showing that more and more of what we do involves no actual intelligence, but it's in the margins that real intelligence exists. We're no closer to simulating (or even describing) the unique aspects intelligence than we were in the 50s. We just have Eliza with 200 billion parameters.
Sure but Microsoft isn’t really offering a coherent solution for general company data and processes. They have the power platform, but because there’s no happy path, best practices, laid out it requires a lot more buy in from actual engineers who don’t have a lot of love for nocode platforms.

It’s totally feasible to build a IT ticketing system in power platform. And then to build a sales/CRM solution and then also build a bunch of analytics and compliance and such for finance, but because Microsoft doesn’t have the barebones platforms there it’s a lot more work to stand up, and you end up maintaining a very custom product that is totally dependent on Microsoft not suddenly changing their pricing or deciding to kill the platform due to lack of revenue. At that point you may as well just build your own thing in actual cloud products instead of depending on the “baby proofed cloud”.

How does Svelte differ? I’m somewhat familiar with SolidJS, and had always assumed Svelte was somewhat similar.
You misunderstand: all 3 were present in each of the scenarios I used it. They were in a bad spot, I did my best to help, no exploitation involved.

not saying those papers are wrong, but 136 years and millions of speakers from _most_ countries and Esperanto's speakers seem just fine without adding irregular verbs.
> I think it's written by someone who finds pipes and awk too awkward to work with.

Actually it's exactly the opposite, it's born out of a love for pipes, and shells, and tools like awk. If you know anyone working at Amazon, ask them to search "11 years of work in a weekend" for a tale of shell heroics that I wrote about while I worked there.

dt is intended to be a new tool in the "shell one-liners" category, just with concatenative FP semantics. :) It will not be everyone's cup of tea, and I will still love and use awk when appropriate
I disagree entirely. Scientists are highly trained professionals.
>The goal is to maximise profit

No, it isn't. Profit is meaningless, money is inherently worthless.

Capitalism exists to encourage the production of (new) goods and services. The system is set up to encourage people to take their capital and invest it for this purpose.

Investments help business ideas that would otherwise never have been made, because the person with the idea couldn't afford it. In return the investor gets a slice of the potential future profits. But the goal of the system is the products the company creates.

Money is worthless. It only carries value based on what you can trade that money for. If I have $10, but a cup of coffee costs $1000, then my $10 are meaningless. But if a house cost $1 then my $10 is very valuable. And what you can trade your money for are the goods that are produced by the economic system.
Haha, if we were able to replicate the notion experience in 2 months that's a great compliment! The difference will come from the fact that we hold structured data. Notion doesn't know that a person is a person and a company is a company. That makes it impossible for them to build robust integrations CRM have. You can build rules to replicate some behavior, but once you have more business logic, it becomes too limited.

Next month we'll be shipping some features around email (log/send) which should help you see the different direction we're taking.

I definitely spent a lot of time wandering through every aisle of BlockBuster, looking for something to rent on VHS. Without suggestion algorithms, and rotten tomatoes scores just a click away at all times, the box art was hugely important for deciding what to watch.

Box art no doubt misled me countless times. But I was a kid, my standards were low, and I was generally happy just to be lucky enough to go to BlockBuster with my dad, and pick out a movie to watch. Those were simpler times.
The cases I was using it for involved internal applications, so you're right, there was a lot more clarity about "what to do when user click button b" than random people on the internet bouncing around a store and adding things to a cart.

There were also a lot of cucumber scenarios and suites involved. Like think dozens of printed pages in relatively small font. Concise it is not. But the people involved wanted verbose and clear over concise and easy :)

It can be a very reassuring way to develop software for stakeholders - "We added 8 scenarios, and made a further 4 failing scenarios pass this week" - as opposed to "our developers spent 6 months and then quit without delivering any code"
I like to call "not being afraid to look dumb" "weaponizing my own stupidity." I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but if you aren't worried about looking like a dope from time-to-time, you can help the actually smart people in the room agree on stuff.
All of the videos on that channel are great - it’s one of my favourites on YouTube. Some of them show horrible accidents ultimately caused by extremely silly process issues (including nobody being responsible for cleaning in a factory, or failure to label the input pipes for a factory, or everybody in charge of monitoring a system skipping out on work).

Also, it’s impressive how dramatic the quality increase is between the old videos and the new ones.

I realized that halfway through typing that too. As well as the absurdity of trying to create AIs that exceed a human in all tasks.

On a serious note, most of these AIs are bad at math but good at writing code for calculators. So what you'll be benchmarking is their ability to create and use tools.

that's not enough evidence. while i would generally agree that it is true and matches my experience that the better i know people the less drained i get interacting with them, i have interacted with people i have never met before without being drained and i can get drained by people who i otherwise trust. in both cases what mattered was that i had to focus on them and not on myself. where i don't get drained with total strangers is when the topic of discussion is one where i can contribute a lot, vs a topic where i feel less secure. naturally interacting with best friends, partners and other close family, topics are often familiar and comfortable, and, uncomfortable topics are easy to avoid. at a party on the other hand it can be hit or miss, and usually hits are rare. out of several dozen events i can count two where someone i never met before and me found a topic so interesting that we were talking about it for hours. going home from those left me full of energy, when most others didn't.
I like that approach. With a lot more indexing and UI magic, that's essentially what we do behind the hood.
Yes, but canada is pretty and the people are friendly. Salaries are low because people will work for less to get to live there. Housing costs more because people will pay more to get to live there. Plus the immigration policy is much more relaxed than the US.
Another issue there is how the polulation is concentrated in a handful of cities near the US border. More cities in the colder more northern canada would be ideal. People want to migrate there, so make more cities for them or invest in city infra/planning in exisiting northern cities
I always figured it's because there isn't a real definition of "spam domains". Google can't come up with a set of rules with the right error rate.
One can be a good general but a bad politician and vice versa. I don't see any contradiction here.
I'm talking out of my ass here and know nothing about how search actually works in 2023, but I feel like their search problems really are solvable with their scale.

Like you said, a first step would be blocking spam domains.

Another would be a return to how the algorithm used work, prioritizing results that are frequently linked to elsewhere using the relevant keywords. In the '00s, this was quickly gamed by companies setting up endless blogs to link to their own products, but I feel it could be mitigated by assigning some kind of trustworthiness score to the sites doing the linking. It shouldn't be hard to recognize that a site being recommended a lot on Reddit or some other well established repository of user-generated content is going to be more genuine than "recommendations" from some random blogspam site nobody's heard of.
What thread? I go to that page and I see the question and nothing else.

As I moved across my country (US) I stopped at a hotel for the night. As I got out of my car in the hotel parking lot, an emaciated, twitchy, and frankly quite unattractive woman approached me and explicitly offered me her mouth to "release that road trip stress". I said no, thanks for the offer but I have to get some rest, sorry, maybe next time. Certainly not my first encounter with the hallowed and empowered sex worker caste, and my response was met with apparent grace. She moved along to the next family pulling up.

Between the time it took for me to check in to my $25+tax/night room and get back to my car to park closer to my assigned room, 3 of my 4 windows were smashed and 4 of my 6 Rubbermaid bins and suitcases full of personal belongings were gone. It was full daylight and there were many other people going in and out of the area. There were cameras. It was the middle of a built up suburban area that appeared nominally safe.

All I got from the hotel was a 20% discount for the night. All I got from the experience was an increase in multiple forms of prejudicial behavior that I still struggle with daily.

I also have a lot of... experience with the sex industry, from multiple angles.

I say this just as a anecdote, but my overall take is that people in this industry are not necessarily "just trying to get by". There are at least some participants whose primary goal is to harm others in some way for their own enjoyment -- on all sides.

And that's fine, a lot of sounds are hard to distinguish if you're not familiar with that language. For English, here's a dictionary entry: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/moment
Showing IPA for both US and UK: it's a slightly different diphthong. For German and Italian (I think), it shouldn't be a diphthong at all. Not everyone will hear a difference, which makes it even more helpful to precisely define what the sound should be. Or just don't put any rules in your instructions, or tell people that it's flexible or whatever.
I love those slow-mo bullet impact videos!

Also, be aware that most primers usually have some kind of heavy metal in them (lead azide, lead styphnate, mercury fulminate) though there are newer compositions using strontium and tetrazine starting to get traction. [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury(II)_fulminate]

Additionally, non-jacketed bullets (common with rim fire, low power pistol, blackpowder, and some other random stuff) will blast lead off the back of the bullets at the muzzle or forcing cone and into the air.

If the area is adequately ventilated it’s not really an issue. Some indoor ranges are not! Sometimes significant amounts of fine particulates can end up at shooting stations from it, or be inhaled.

That said, just wash your hands and don’t hang out in ranges that get Smokey and you’ll be fine. If you’re cleaning up a range with bad ventilation, wear a respirator rated for metal dust.

I’ve done all the high risk activities (including a decent amount of soldering with gasp leaded solder) for over 3 decades, have done that, and have tested ‘non-detectable’ for lead and mercury every time I felt like checking.

I’ve had friends who didn’t that ended up on Chelation therapy. Don’t be like them. They’re miserable.

> Consistent use of a face mask or respirator in indoor public settings was associated with lower odds of a positive SARS-CoV-2 test result (adjusted odds ratio = 0.44). Use of respirators with higher filtration capacity was associated with the most protection, compared with no mask use.

I'll take a reduced risk, even if it's not perfect. Would you prefer to get covid one time, or five times? It's like arguing "why bother wearing a seatbelt, when it doesn't prevent injuries in accidents?"

Also, are you suggesting masking does not help with preventing influenza infection?

ConTeXt probably has tweaks for this as well. Keep in mind, I typeset Jekyll and Hyde in 2020 and am not a ConTeXt expert; ConTeXt has had countless improvements since then.

> adopt the superior text-layout algorithms of latex

Pretty sure ConTeXt is capable of producing the same quality of document as LaTeX.

There's another, often ignored differential factor for frameworks and that is ergonomics. All of the frameworks here require specific domain knowledge to pick up and understand. That knowledge typically involves confusing concepts (Svelte and Vue aren't too bad here) that waste a ton of developer time just to wrap their head around [1]. When I look at Angular, it feels like one of those contortionist boxes at a magic show.

This is why I ended up building Joystick [2]. The amount of time I was wasting trying to reason through how a framework wanted me to do something vs. actually building what I wanted was driving me nuts (not to mention, having to watch people I was mentoring who had less experience struggle even more).

[1] Meaning, beyond a trivial interface, any sort of complex UI is often (not always) burdened by the framework's lack of clear ergonomics. There's a lot of having to learn "why it did that" in the way of getting stuff done.
