The typical remark in Pascal discussions.

When Assembly is part of the picture in Pascal projects, it is always pointed out as it being the case.

When C projects make use of inline Assembly all over the place, it is C, even though it isn't part of ANSI C standard, there isn't any reference to inline Assembly support, and not every C compiler does support such extensions.

For anyone looking to experience this in Japan yourselves, be sure to research where to go before showing up.

Some onsen will find a polite-sounding excuse to deny foreigners, and most onsen will not let anyone in with visible tattoos.

The tattoo bias was originally intended to discriminate against criminals/yakuza and is now used to discriminate against foreigners.

Source: My wife was kicked out of one onsen after undressing, and I saw several signs against tattoos.
Emotional responses aren't invalidated because they don't magically solve the problem that originated them. Not understanding emotional responses, on the other hand, has a very real and damaging effect in society. It fosters political polarization, ableism, harsh 'tough on crime' policy making, poor mental health, etc.
I own a projector and good surround-sound setup, and have a circle of friends who call themselves cinephiles. Sometimes they will suggest some film for me to put on for everybody. Nevertheless, virtually the moment the film starts, they take out their phones and then keep only half an eye on the film. I don’t even bother mentioning this out loud as a problem, I feel like it would just make me look like an out-of-touch weirdo.

IgE tests can detect allergies without exposing the patient to the allergen. But they are imperfect. The only true test is exposure.

The test counts as a first exposure. But the reaction can only occur on a second exposure. I've often wondered if allergy tests can cause an allergy and while the allergists I've talked to don't seem to think so, I honestly don't see why not. So I would not suggest getting any unnecessary allergy tests.

Although this is no solid ground to act cruelly, science is often going against the obvious consensus.

But clearly, it's not what is going here. What you see here is human being outrageously denying the obvious wherever some information is inconvenient for whatever goal was currently set in its mind.

There's some endogeneity though (sorry for the big word).

Wood houses are cheaper because the lobbying got the other cheap ways to build housing made illegal.

For instance, if you can't build anything more than one story, can't make an apartment, or can't run a corner store out of your house, then it's not productive enough to pay for the construction costs of anything else.

Fire codes are also a lot of it. That's the kind of thing that seems reasonable, then you go back and look at old speeches and they're just saying stuff like "we must make up expensive safety laws for apartments or else black people will move in".

But you need a way to identify people. If there's no good way to identify real people (government issued ID number), those that need them will invent bad ones (SSN, phone number, maiden name, maybe more). And companies like Google have their own identifier for you already, anyway. And you can't travel anywhere without a passport that is another identifier, anyway.

I'm impressed how much Americans dislike the idea of a mandatory government issued ID. I don't mean it in a bad way - this sounds like a very principled and idealistic stance. I just really like my government issued ID, and consider it a reasonable tradeoff.
And when somebody does defend the store and the situation becomes violent, will you feel the same way?

When I started mudding around 1990, the first server's TCP port number was chosen by its wizard/admin as a significant office room number at CMU. I believe it was his own office, if I'm not mistaken. And, not long afterwards, the other great well-known MUD port number was chosen by its administrator as 6250, which was the data density of the tape reels he worked with as a backup operator.

Of course, MUD admins the world 'round have always chosen interesting and diverse port numbers for their servers, which were quite often rogue and unsanctioned. Even a server admin would choose a "non-privileged" port above 1024, because the server didn't need to run as root.

Another interesting factoid I recently learned is that Wikidata, with its integer assignments for item IDs, has a few Easter-egg type items such as: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q42

My recent visit to a mental institution was an interesting game of room numbers. I was in a ward where they were all 3-digits beginning with 6. My father over the phone said "You must be on the sixth floor!" and I said "no, dad, I'm in the mental ward." And the room numbers counted right up to 665, followed by a mysterious unnumbered door. We chatted about what this could mean in the day room. The other hospital I've visited, I decided, is straight-up satanic in architecture and numerology. As I measured out the rooms and counted all the numbers, I decided that it was having the desired effect, and tried not to think of it anymore. But, I'm confident that these are deliberate architectural decisions by the builders, for whatever purpose, whether to convince us of our own sanity, or remind us of the dire situation we've got into.

If Room 404 really does not exist at CERN, then that makes it logical and appropriate, yes?

How does this relate to the article and how does it support your assertion the author accused Newport of inciting violence?

(To make my ethical position explicit, I believe in nonviolence and I don't believe in theft. But I don't think that's relevant to a discussion about a turn of phrase.)
Lutron actually has a switch package that can detect people even if it can't "see" them. I believe it uses ultrasound. Either way, you can poop and bathe with the lights on, and it knows your there

It too bad there has been so much disinformation and half truths and suppression over the past couple years. I live in a region that is experiencing these fires and many people are choosing not to heed the warnings because the people and outlets issuing them have not been held to account.
Two nights ago several firefighters were trapped and barely escaped while rescuing those who chose to stay despite the evacuation orders. This is a serious issue but sadly the media and government chose to villainize those who stayed.
Above and beyond those that chose to stay because they did not believe the risk, others made the choice because of the unintended consequences of the current catch and release policies of our criminal justice system. Especially in the Kelowna, British Columbia area, petty crime and theft are rampant and there is a real fear of leaving our property unprotected from the small minority of opportunists who seem to face no consequences for their crimes.
I do not want to discount the severity of this years fires but having lived a while and a good memory, I find this declaration of it being the worst in history very convenient for the climate alarmists, sorry.
Here is some data I found that puts things into context, although there were even greater fires going back to the 1800s and in particular 1910.

Ah, trying a trick question?

But are you sure you aren't just trying to be contrarian and fishing for data?

Vaccinations were as early as the late 1800's and the first widespread programmes for yellow fever in 1930's.

Most of the allergy/asthma incidence begins to spike in the 1970's.

Excessive use of disinfectants, and excessive use of antibiotics is a much more likely mechanism.

Antibiotic resistance was precipitated by excessive antibiotic prescription in both humans and the animals humans eat.

coincidentally the increase in antibiotic resistance rising from the 1970's onwards is very much aligned with allergy anaphylatic reactions rise from 1970's onwards.
Regularly. Sento and onsen are part of life and travel here in Japan. Some are better than others but they're always welcome, especially when on a bike camping trip.
Lark supports, and recommends, writing and storing the grammar in a .lark file. We have syntax highlighting support in all major IDEs, and even in github itself. For example, here is Lark's built-in grammar for Python: https://github.com/lark-parser/lark/blob/master/lark/grammar...

The rationale is that it's more terse and has less visual clutter than a DSL over Python, which makes it easier to read and write.
I've wanted to do something like this, but I'm not sure of the 'public viewing' licensing / permissions / royalties required. I looked it up a while back, but life got in the way and so the idea was mostly lost (thanks for the reminder).
6 months may not have been long enough for them to work. And allergy shot protocols are not standardized. Your allergist may not have used a large enough dose or the right updosing schedule. I've had shots at three different allergists (I stopped the first two treatments for personal reasons unrelated to the treatment), and this third one seems to give larger doses (which unfortunately makes the shots more painful), and is also the most effective one by far.
Just put a time adverbial like last year today tomorrow later "in a bit".

Call me surprised. OK, fair enough.
> Spears are extremely effective and deadly.

And continents are big, and people very unevenly distributed. 13kya there were few humans on any continent. It takes more than spears to eliminate mastodons, mammoths, short-faced bears, dire wolves, sabretooth cats, cheetahs, camels, horses, giant sloths in one blow.

Humans did not drive 30+ genera to extinction in the Americas all in under a century, after coexisting for millennia; and did not lay down a film of dust enriched with platinum over the whole continent, or torch it. They did not wipe out their whole material culture at the same time. Nothing Clovis, or any of those genera, are found anywhere above the layer of platinum-enriched charcoal and ash dust.

Horses and elephants did not become extinct in Eurasia, where people hunted far longer. You might notice Africa still sports plenty of megafauna.

> the most dramatic and visible increase has been the rise in global incidence rates for food allergies, which began in earnest in the 1990s and has grown steadily ever since

Modernity has being going on for a lot longer than the 1990's, so if the data indeed show a well defined break at that time, then at least for some group of allergies there might be a simple cause and effect relation.

But the broader pattern of modern civilization modifying the environment at scale on the assumption that nothing can wrong in the long run if it is not obviously toxic in the short run is indeed the root of many of our growing problems.
Problem with Solidjs is lack of mature ecosystem.
CPAP causes a sense of suffocation, nasal congestion, face masks are weakly effective while nose masks often run into the issue of switching to mouth breathing during resistance. It also prevents total airway collapse but not increases in effort. Basically it's way less effective than people assume, while introducing its own sleep disruption

Serious question because I haven’t had time to dig into it and I have gotten some great answers to biology questions here in the past.

There is a theory going around the internet that the adjuvant component in vaccines which enhances the learned immune response to the viral matter in the vaccine may sometimes (unintentionally) also enhance the learned immune response to other materials in the body around vaccination time, which results in an “allergy” to those other material(s).

Logically speaking this doesn’t sound crazy. Has it been studied and disproven? I’ve seen a few “debunkings” but they all seem to misunderstand the theory and dismiss it out of hand.
I might cancel premium over this. However, having a subscriptions feed is still usable. If you want to get sucked into the algorithm, there are still recommendations on actual video pages.
I keep hearing complaints about NVIDIA driver issues under Linux, so they must be real.

Nevertheless, I have used for twenty years many different NVIDIA cards under Linux, both GeForce and Quadro models, on many different desktop and laptop computers.

I have never seen any problem with the NVIDIA drivers and libraries, everything has worked fine after installation, without needing any special action beyond choosing to install the NVIDIA software. The same was also true under FreeBSD.

The only exception to this was some years ago, on a laptop with NVIDIA Optimus switchable GPUs, where I have lost a couple of days until succeeding to configure how to select between the Intel GPU and the NVIDIA GPU.

I also have some AMD GPUs, older models which still had great FP64 performance, so they are used for computational applications, but with those I had greater problems under Linux, when used with many monitors.

Therefore whether problems with the Linux NVIDIA drivers are encountered must be dependent on complex combinations of hardware and software, so it is impossible to predict whether they will be encountered or not.

Unexpected problems may always happen with any piece of hardware under an open-source operating system, because the manufacturers typically do not provide technical documentation like they did before 1995 and most of them test their hardware only with Windows. NVIDIA certainly provides much better software support for Linux and FreeBSD than the majority of the hardware vendors.

So my point is that it is incorrect to attempt to discourage the Linux users to use NVIDIA due to supposed driver problems, because many of them, perhaps most of them will never encounter any problem.

Only the Intel GPUs can be said to have better Linux support, and they also have the best GPU technical documentation, much better than that of AMD. While NVIDIA has the worst documentation for their hardware, they have excellent documentation for the huge amount of software that they provide freely for their GPUs under Linux.

What is wrong with NVIDIA is neither their software support for Linux nor the documentation for that software, but their pricing policy that always seems based on a greediness that is excessive even for a profit-oriented company.
> A lot of people take their allergies for granted

This bit get me perplexed.

Severe allergies usually means pills and an Anapen prescription from a specialist that needs to be renewed at least every few years due to the experiation of the pen. If between two visits there was new ways to deal with a specific allergy I'd expect the doctor to guide their patients (at least ask if they're willing to give it a shot).

Are there people out there followed by a specialist for years, subject to a deadly condition that affect their daily food choice, that never got asked if they'd want to get rid of their allergy as a cure was available ? That feels unethitical, borderline criminal to me.
That seems a lot worse than a 2060 SUPER with PyTorch in A1111.

Isn't it fairly probable that nobody remembers folks with as many deadly or serious reactions simply because kids just died of them?

Like the WWI "helmets cause more head injuries" kind of thing, where it's true head injuries go up, but that's because without the helmet they would all have simply been fatal shots.

What are the odds we're just keeping more kids with more problems alive better than previous generations did, and so the rates of these problems are going up as the kids aren't dying off before they hit five?
No one said they were required, just that words may help induce mindfulness of these sensations
There's a solution to all of your problems: kashikiri (private / reserved) onsen.

These are smaller, private onsen designed for families or couples (or, I suppose, the shy foreigner). They're fairly common.
I'm not sure what your big-O expression is supposed to mean, but if a sequence is decreasing and bounded below (which runtime is) then it has a limit. Since the sequence is discrete, it can't get arbitrarily close to the limit without reaching it. So at some point the runtime will stop decreasing.

You can approximate the runtime with a function that decreases forever, but the actual runtime will be constant for large enough n.
Lack of full device encryption is also a no-go for me.
