Possible Dupe? Just searching "vegan" I see this 4 times in the last few days.

I am really curious what exactly "high meat" means. I am very curious since the difference between "low meat" and vegetarian is minimal at best and even between low and vegan is still not that drastic.

I would also really like to see how the dietary enviromental impact relates to a persons entire environmental impact (as in, ok we see a 30% impact change based on dietary impact but how much of a change is that on a personal level really?)

There are just a lot of information missing here that would paint much better (or not better depending on what you are trying to argue) picture.

I am also curious how this changes based on where you live and how far your food has to travel to get to you within the same country. Like rural vs urban in the US.
The custom snapshotter sounds interesting, potentially a good selling point. On recovery end, in my designs I have also found it useful to have synthetic events so in breakage of CDC I can stitch logs together and not just start from scratch and lose history. I can see you are in the depths of it, more than I’ve been for a while. Wish you the best.
I wish more places ran Nomad. I haven't used it myself but it seems so much simpler than Kubernetes (and, like the author, I have extensive experience operating Kubernetes clusters) and HCL is a dream compared to drowning in OpenAPI docs and Golang structs to figure out how the hell to define the MySuperCoolCR resource that x.y.x-k8s.example.com/v1beta4 offers.
The implication was that you could boot a malicious OS, then boot into a different OS with the same processor and get pwned. As other commenters mentioned, this mechanism doesn't create that risk because the update has to be applied each boot.
It's fun an games until you have to debug an Erlang RPC call that is timing out w/o log messages in a blob of Elixir micro services.
This is probably what the author meant to say but elided. I can see why it looks off though.
> What isn't obvious but should be is that this isn't the way to save the environment

It is very probable that this is the most important thing we could do. There are possibly hundreds of studies proving that. Ask, and I shall provide. Animal agriculture is the leading driver of environmental destruction, eutrophication, deforestation, and biodiversity loss.

As for villains...hmm... every year, over 92 billion land animals are killed, up to 3 trillion marine animals, 1 million species are facing extinction. Meat and dairy are not even a necessity, not in this day and age, not for the majority of people consuming most of it.

And vegans and scientists are the villains? ;)
> it does not have an "ego" the way scientific papers tend to have.

What do you call it when somebody takes the time to write about "a big discovery" they've made, but don't take the time to check if somebody else already did it? It's not like it's in some forgotten paper nobody has seen. It's in Pytorch itself.

Also this: "I’m 99.44% sure that it will resolve the outlier feedback loop that’s making quantization the subject of cascades of research."
There are a range of non-lithium storage technologies that are much more suited to the task. As you say, lithium batteries are only suitable for diurnal mismatch and dealing with curtailment. But there is a lot of investment going into non-lithium batteries, electro-mechanical, etc to solve the bigger issues of seasonal storage and resilience. A lot of people like vanadium flow batteries for their unique properties but that may create a supply chain issue. I also like iron based solutions. But they will take a long time to validate and lithium LFP is ready now.
to whomever downvoted this, you clearly need some more independent voices in your life, but fear not, Mozilla got you covered: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-news/in...
As another poster has already mentioned, Zen 4 supports one half-precision FP format, BF16, which was first introduced in Intel Cooper Lake.

Sapphire Rapids has added an alternative format FP16, which is not supported by Zen 4, because Zen 4 was launched before Sapphire Rapids.
I guess its end by hyperinflation followed by nazis is not something people would be proud of.
I think that's certainly part of it, and it happens on all sides of the political Spectrum, but I just wonder why
Design flaw would be if the specification implied that manipulation of cookies through non-HTTP APIs could affect the HttpOnly cookies. But it only says: "the attribute instructs the user agent to omit the cookie when providing access to cookies via "non-HTTP" APIs". So, the browsers really should "omit" it, that is, not affect it directly by scripted manipulation of cookies in any way. Yes, "omit the cookie" feels a little vague, but I'm also not sure that the specification authors should be blamed for this wording.

After fucking over Canada on the Keystone XL pipeline, I hope the Biden administration sticks to their “principles” and shuts that down too. It will be interesting to see.
I've seen (and used) \mathbb{P} and \mathbb{E} for the probability & expectation operators (so not really a "concrete" object in your sense?)
So what? The same logic still applies.

There just aren't that many unusually desirable neighbourhoods, most are clustered around the average. Obviously, most average families can't actually end up living in neighbourhoods of above average desirability by definition.
No, society does. Blaming technology is stupid.
Perhaps the more reasonable/descriptive way to represent the potentially no-value result of the computation is with a sum type, not a union type?
I’m now running a small air purifier in my home office. This has helped some, but it’s not a perfect solution.
yeah fair enough. am just trying to be super diligent with the cleanliness since investing in a kinesis product
Not saying I disagree with you, but I do want to note that the specific example of unzipping a list using `zip` has been in the official zip docs [1] as long as I can remember, and as such, should be commonly understood by Python developers.

I mean, that's exactly what I'm frustrated about. I wish I could ignore him, but like Trump before, he succeeds in constantly grabbing media attention and plastering himself over all the headlines.
A good part of the article is about a non-realistic microbenchmark (nobody spawns empty threads)..

Also measuring the performance difference with threads making some work would be more interesting IMHO.
AT8024 with the stock dead cat. It isn't as good for pinpoint sound isolation as dedicated parabolic mics, though.
This is absurd. This is just as much as indictment of ridiculous American courts as it is the corporations prosecuting such a case. What is happening in that clown country that a civil case against a person who wasn't even involved in the infraction can be judged liable when they are not even present to defend themselves? America is a bully nation.
No mortal man would have been allowed to register a trade mark this similar. I tried.
Where is $592 coming from? That doesn't sound right to me for Premium, esp. since the Lifetime option doesn't even have a trial phase. Which plan, billing frequency, and currency are you looking at?

On the trial topic, I'm using Paddle for subscriptions/billing, and when you add a free trial stage to a product in Paddle, they do charge after the trial ends. For anyone who forgets to cancel in time, I'm happy to issue a refund.

I also offer general discounts and extended trials on request (per the pricing page).

But if there's still a concern, the easiest way to try out the basic features without worrying about any of this is to just hop into the sandbox, which you don't even need to create an account for.
I wonder what kind of developers (i.e. demographics, place in career, tec preference etc) want to use a set up like this. I like my local development to be very local with as few links in the chain/surprises as possible, but maybe I'm just a crusty luddite.
It is not clear to me how desperate the need is. It is not hard to find examples of things that, at first glance, seem clearly nonsensical. But some examples may be miscoded and corrected later, while other examples are simply misunderstandings of the common use of the code. This seems to be the primary strategy for election deniers. But even if a tree is actually a large bush, forests still exist. We can predict with reasonable accuracy how many people will die of the most common causes, because the numbers are big. That is the strength of excess death estimates. I do not think there is much disagreement over most of these statistics by people who understand the estimation process.
Situations like these keep bringing me back to the idea that important actions should require an actual, in person, human notary seal.

Contract signings, online court service, title changes, etc should not be valid without an offline record examiner who affirms under threat of perjury that the parties involved are who they claim (or are claimed to be).
More dystopian nonsense by the totally not evil company
> Ripping up these ecosystems to grow nuts and beans would be "worse" for the environment.

No, you could reforest/rewild those lands and stop droughts and and biodiversity loss and repair microclima and soil health etc. etc.

And by growing nuts it would be worse for the environment? Growing nut trees is co2 positive. How could forests with nut trees be worse than pastures with dried out grass?

If the world adopted a plant-based diet we would reduce global agricultural land use from 4 to 1 billion hectares (and free up an area as big as Africa for rewilding / reforesting)

We could not even get the world to fully transition to the superior Atom format.
It depends, maybe ? I live in a country where energy come from 69% nuclear power, and about 10% hydro, 10% solar/wind, 10% gas. The nuclear plants are evenly spread over the populated area.
Exactly, the record is 19 minutes (Air Transat 236).
Twitter has not been some revolutionary (in the political sense) device since long before Musk bought it, if it ever was. Actually the opposite, it was shown to act as an arm of the states that support the status quo.
TL;DR, the App store has evolved from your computer and smart phone, onto your car, and some people miss fiddling with their knobs.

Google is rolling out tech to websits to stop people using web blockers, but this might just create a new type of dark web.

And technofuedalism is killing capitalism and democracy, so now might be the time to learn to program or design circuitboards for the masses.
Default arguments are evaluated and created when the function definition is evaluated, not when the function itself is evaluated. This means that the scope of the default argument is actually the entire module, not just a single invocation of the method. This is what throws people off.
Are there people writing about this?

Minoxidil simply extends the anagen (growth) stage of the hair follicles by strengthening them and improving blood flow to the scalp.

If your head was a bathtub, this would be like turning up the tap.

However, male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia) is usually caused by the hormone DHT, which is a byproduct of testosterone. DHT can shrink hair follicles causing hair loss, and that’s primarily what you’re fighting against.

You can help prevent testosterone from being converted to DHT by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase. The typical prescription for this is 1.25mg of finasteride, taken orally.

Back to the bathtub analogy, this would be like putting in the plug.

When taken together, this treatment is fairly effective for most people, although side effects can be somewhat common with finasteride (eg low libido) so do more research if you go down this route.
Ah yes, the “they were asking for it” defense.
The once hilarious, once satirical, r/pyongyang subreddit is now unironically an influential bastion of Communist propaganda. Its contributors are no longer ironic or ban-posting - they are true believers, and they're indistinguishable from the moderators of most all major subreddits & the corporate overlords who tacitly support them. At this point, none even bother to pretend they believe in "free speech" as a human right.

The "you have now been banned by r/pyongyang" punchline is now far more relevant to any subreddit, thread or comment that is not sufficiently left wing (as defined by current date/time).

Reddit is "democratic" insofar as the most upvoted thread/comment makes it to the top, right? No. Around 2016, something happened. (Won't speculate here). Now every default subreddit is run/moderated by explicitly far left wing activists. All non-default subreddits with any level of popularity is similarly run/moderated by explicitly far left wing activists. If it ain't far left Tumblr leftist, it's right wing, and it shall be either annexed by a left wing mod and converted or outright banned.

I'd love to hear HN's strategy to combat this. It is truly nuts. But at this point, we all expect it.
An open wifi network is akin to having the shades open or your door unlocked.

You can take advantage of it, but almost everyone is going to feel like it's not right unless they have consent.

An open house would be akin to have an open wifi network labeled "PleaseUseMe".
I don’t understand what the companies hope to gain out of this aside from loads of bad publicity?
Record Linkage and the Universal Identifier (1972)
Saying "your car has a flat tire" isn't blaming your car, and saying "Mastodon has a CSAM problem" isn't blaming Mastodon.

This article seems to do a pretty fair job of pointing out that they investigate this issue on many platforms, but that they've seen higher rates of CSAM on Mastodon than others. They also specifically call out, accurately, that decentralized platforms have different challenges with addressing these problems when compared to a platform with a central arbiter.
I walked into this one thinking it might be about a/b testing. Pleasantly surprised.
Aside from the purpose described here, hoarding/accumulation beyond a certain limit should also be discouraged/eliminated for all kinds of assets using a mechanism similar to expiring money. Any unused asset should expire

That’s the logical thing in the context of this domain. In a broader data domain there are other considerations, not always logical, so if that ends up configurable it’s a feature that broadens application scope.
There’s a good chance that Twitter is being destroyed intentionally; it has been a very useful tool for people organizing against the political- and billionaire-class. Egypt really hated its influence; Saudi’s aren’t too thrilled, etc. Powerful monied interests financed the buy-out.
Running the numbers on this, it seems as though one cow produces as much methane as 7000 of you (500L per day vs .07 L methane if random internet sources are to be trusted)
Not totally related to the above but I have to say I love the vscode dev containers experience.

I am working on a few projects in the clinical research field with complex combinations of languages ,stacks and dependencies and love that we can bundle a complete development environment into the repo along with infra declared via docker compose.
This is a large decline. It does not correlate well with the rise of LLMs, which have shifted my own habits away from Stack Overflow recently. Looking through the graphs, the most dramatic shift was the large drop in new visits in the first half of last year, by two thirds or more. That seems late to be a Covid effect. There were some political controversies, but it would surprise me if they had such a large effect.

What accounts for this?
phonetically misspelled names, while kinda weird, aren't really on the same level as this tbh.

I guess my point is naming someone isn't really the place for wacky creativity.
This is a cool idea - it could be tested it by seeing whether W_V tends to map <bot> to 0, and whether <bot> tends to get attended to.

There are interesting things to said whether or not this turns out to be the case.
I've worked on traditional cattle ranches with open pasture grazing and am roughly aware of what goes on in the factory farms, feed lots, and dairies that were nearby us. Even traditional ranching has certain brutal aspects to it - dehorning and castration are quite painful even with some effort to minimize pain. But the cows suffer less and for a much shorter time than they would at the hands of a natural predator or their other natural ends such as starvation or exposure. I'm not sure what lead has to do with anything.
> Getting people to distinguish between these concepts is probably a lost cause.

I think people here of all places should distinguish between these concepts.

There are big performance and security implications of the two approaches.
I was promoted to one of those "mod" type people who reviews new answers, first posts, etc, a few years back.

I can tell you that I quit in the last 6 months. All new answers are answers on questions from first time posters, answering questions that have good solid answers from 8+ years ago (mostly 10 years), and it is pretty obvious, they are just doing it to get points. The question/answer is not something that has changed in the last 8+ years, they are just doing it to get reputation or whatever.

Most good solid questions...I just do not see too many today. I am not saying this is the reason for the decline, but there is a deluge of posts answering very old questions with a slight modification of an old answer. I quit putting effort into it, as it was just non-productive.
In some cases you can also do:

x = x or []

Your method is best when you might get falsy values but if that’s not an issue the `or` method is handy.
My guesses:

- People who don't own a computer, e.g. university students who only use the school's computers (or K-12 students even), but who still want their editor settings to be automatically saved and used, and who don't want to deal with installing things on the computers they use (or can't install things).

- People who own multiple computers and who don't want to deal with syncing configuration such as installed tools, editor settings, etc.
?? embedded/iot, customized[1], or stock OS??

?? does text display/command line only useage count as usable (vs. gui interface).

"Linux from scratch"[0] provides a way to experiement what what 'still have a usable OS' is.

IOT/ebmedded/customized OS (linux & windows) can be setup to act as a relay between local screen and remote server/cloud. There would be no backround processes/services/daemon on the local box.

It's been a while since I saw this one. Pepsi universe, lol.
wow! That's a level of personal financial analysis that I've never contemplated doing. It's fantastic that someone has built such a great tool for others, and you get so much value from it.

For me personally, I fail to understand the point of doing this level of analysis, at lest for some of the things you listed that seem highly hypothetical and uncertain (e.g. raises, IPOs, even future mortgage rates). I guess that's the nature of any financial forecasting, but this just seems like it's taken to a level that I would not find helpful. Take for example the kind of mortgage to choose, a decision that all home buyers face and can be daunting (there's so much mortgage/lender lingo that is foreign to most people). The "right" answer is to go with a shorter-term, variable rate, because on average you'll pay less interest than longer-term/fixed rates. But that's also the wrong answer for some people who don't want, or can't handle variability in their biggest monthly expense. Layering those factors into an overall retirement calculator/projector just seems like overkill and over complicated for that decision. MHO...

1. Plenty of animals get killed in the creation of vegan diets so that isn't an argument you want to make.

2. I think maybe you missed the point I'm making about dealing with reality as it comes. Food is as inexorably connected to human identity as religion; no top-down law, rule, or diktat will ever work – and anybody who tries it will be overthrown.
It's probably subjective, but I don't see the need to wrap your code in a try/except block as an improvement over an optional sum type, and I really don't see the use of a magic value to indicate no value as an improvement over anything.

an EV has a near future potential for being fueled by green energy, especially since during peak power production for types such as solar, most of us are at work with cars potentially plugged in and ready to make use of that abundance.

a fossil fuel ICE on the other hand is decades if not centuries away from workable green alternatives.

It's worth noting that the FSF consider that supporting microcode updates makes software "un-free". This is a great example of what an inordinately stupid and harmful position that is.
To me this is the buried lede:

> It was challenging to get the details right, but I used this to teach my fuzzer to find interesting instruction sequences. This allowed me to discover features like merge optimization automatically, without any input from me!

What happens when AI can start fuzzing software? Seems like a golden opportunity for opsec folks.
Those are honestly pretty high correlations for something like this. High is subjective of course. I feel like the question you want to ask is how well can you predict an MBTI score knowing only someone’s FFM.

Well if a correlation value is .7 (squared to .49) then you would expect to guess correctly about 75% of the time with just the univariate relationship (naively assuming that the underlying distribution is 50/50 to begin with, without which we would need to refer to something like a RoC AUC score…).
