>Results: Women with active sun exposure habits were mainly at a lower risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and noncancer/non-CVD death as compared to those who avoided sun exposure. As a result of their increased survival, the relative contribution of cancer death increased in these women. Nonsmokers who avoided sun exposure had a life expectancy similar to smokers in the highest sun exposure group, indicating that avoidance of sun exposure is a risk factor for death of a similar magnitude as smoking. Compared to the highest sun exposure group, life expectancy of avoiders of sun exposure was reduced by 0.6-2.1 years.

It's listed after Cabal as an "alternative", so a lot of people will presumably ignore it if they don't see any reason why they'd want anything else.

I personally wish that page were even more opinionated, but it's politically tricky.
The problem in this particular case is that the sensor may be confidently telling you there's something in the way, but in reality it's just a plastic bag. Hard braking at 70mph on a highway as if you were about to hit a concrete wall is probably not a great outcome in this scenario if there's somebody behind you.
Maybe the planet, or locality on the planet, has resources that permit continuous chemical processes to happen without cell (maybe no breeze). Maybe it doesn't need to be continuous.
Statistics like this never mention that the "gaming" market is mostly Android/iOS.

A response like this was exactly the reminder I needed to upgrade my Catalyst license. My opsec can be a little on the paranoid side, so while I believe y'all have the best of intentions and would build sync with the expectation that my data is safe, I would prefer to not use your sync service. But I use Obsidian so regularly that it's definitely worth supporting good work done by folks that align with me. Keep up the wonderful work, both as a software company and as a beacon for how to be a good steward in an increasingly cynical industry.
Every critique I’ve seen hasn’t really attacked the core thesis of the work, mostly dismantling ancillary supporting examples.

I’ve certainly not seen a refutation of the fact that the natural attributes of living in one place provide advantages over other places.

I haven’t looked into this in a while though, so if you’re aware of some more comprehensive rebuttals, I’d like to see them.
Darwinian evolution explains how self-replicating entities can evolve into the sort of life we see around us today, but it does not explain how those self-replicating entities got that way in the first place.

It is not clear to me from the article, however, that this theory goes so far as to explain the latter, either. It seems to be saying that if you take something like what we believe the primordial earth was like, then one might expect life to emerge, but it does not seem to have suggested specific processes leading to that outcome.

Nor does the article give any example of how it has led to a satisfactory non-Darwinian explanation of an allegedly problematic case of evolution. If that has changed since the article's publication in 2014, I would be very interested in hearing about it.

That doesn't change the fundamental character of sandbox being one part of a defense-in-depth strategy instead of being the first-last-and-only line of defense. When you begin using and relying on a security-related feature in a way it was never designed to be used, then you are playing with fire and arguably already compromised. Browser vendors can change their implementation at any time on the basis that newer releases still satisfy the intent.

There has to be some limit on radiation resistance for these microorganisms. At the end of the day, DNA is a fragile molecule and it can be degraded. Maybe the rover could be overbombarded with radiation on this journey, if the background radiation in space is insufficient.
Cool! I've followed your instructions and your blog quite a bit as I've experimented with running local LLMs as well as stable diffusion. It's been especially helpful, as python is not my language or usual environment. Your patience at hacking your way through each new iteration and presenting what's important about them is astonishing; I personally think I'd have gone mad, but you've done great work in charting the territory.

Ask HN: Report company sending out marketing emails without unsubscribe link?
A VC backed company (I don't want to name them because they don't deserve the exposure) is sending out emails without an unsubscribe link that are clearly marketing.

The dilemma is that as thing become more abstract, making a "self explanatory" icon requires prior knowledge of other abstract concepts from the user.

For example the cloud "obviously" means something on the internet, something like online storage, and you can derive a lot of "self explanatory" icons from there. But what about those who don't understand it?

Funnily enough, I once saw a cloud icon on a piece of software, I thing it was mapping software, I instantly though about something about the internet. It took me a bit of time to realize it was for the weather, I mean, actual clouds.

Because the guy is literally parroting waffle from right wing propaganda machines as if it's well thought out commentary. When it's not. It's just blatant propaganda with disregard for the truth.

> Easy: he thought the coup would be the action with the highest chance of success at the point when he had committed himself to going ahead with it.

From some of the post-coup reporting (Washington Post?), there were comments from the US intel community that the coup had much wider support past Wagner, but was set to launch several days later.

Russian intelligence caught wind of it... and decision was made to launch it prematurely.

Granted, the US intel community is far from an unbiased party, but it would explain Prigozhin's calculus is a more believable way.

How I made a QWERTY “keyboard walk” password generator with ChatGPT
Instagram banned my business account today because they say I'm not a real person. I'm not trying to be. Nothing in my account said I was a real person. All the personal information in my account is real, though. I tried to appeal it which involves uploading a selfie. I've now learned this was my fatal mistake. You are not supposed to appeal it, that simply auto-perma-bans you. You're supposed to fill out a form which took me an hour to find about 27 levels deep on Meta's site. Which I can no longer fill out because I am perma-banned.

The point of this is: I also lost my Threads account.

If you lose your Instagram account, you lose your Threads account too.

I guess I should be lucky (?) that my Facebook account still works.

If you're stuck in the same situation as the author, DO NOT hit that Appeal button. It is a trick. It will not get your account unlocked, it will do the opposite and will get you perma-banned.

> Other human drivers certainly aren't implementing a LIDAR-based sensor fusion strategy and you have to share the roads with them

humans are absolutely doing sensor fusion, brains are bayesian inference machines. do not underestimate the power of the visual system.

and no, that the brain does is not an argument in favor of LIDAR-less cars. the eyeball + visual cortex system is alien technology compared to our feeble models. beware the hubris of a man who has learned to classify golden retrievers.
This is an oversimplification. You absolutely can make and sell art depicting other people. Photographs in public, even if people are identifiable and don't consent to being photographed, can be sold [1]. Likewise, paintings depicting real people can be sold, even if the depict people in less than flattering scenarios, for example [2].

Defamation is a non-issue if people are transparent that it's a fictional work.

Protections on one's image are actually quite narrow, mostly limited to advertisements and non-consensual photographs taken in private.

The real value of mandatory voting has little to do with how people actually vote. Even if 95% of voters submitted blank ballots or wrote in "Mickey Mouse", I strongly suspect you'd get a better outcome than we see in countries with voluntary voting.

The main value of mandatory voting is that it makes it very hard for politicians to reason about which demographics they should cater to and which demographics they can ignore. Even if only 5% of voters vote honestly (the real number, of course, is vastly higher than that, as we see in Australia), politicians don't know who did and who didn't.

When only a portion of the population shows up to the booth, their demographic data is freely available. This means that politicians focus on the needs/desires of demographics that vote the most.

Also, voter suppression is not a thing in places with mandatory voting. Legislators don't bother writing laws to make voting harder for some demographics than others when everyone has to vote anyway.
Germans would type on a QWERTZ keyboard (Z and Y are swapped). This may theoretically considerably open up the space of possible top-row-only German words, as Z is very common in German (especially after T).

>The problem with sensor fusion is what do you do when the sensors disagree? You have to decide which sensor to trust.

There are two cameras in this computer vision system. If one of them goes offline, is obscured, becomes dirty, or malfunctions you lose stereo vision and depth perception. So you'd obviously need 3+ cameras. And now we're right back at sensor fusion challenges again.
There's MAD and there's MAD. Nobody is going to invade NK, because even a few nukes make it a horrible idea, but I also don't consider NK launching it's weapons to be a fundamental, serious threat to global civilization.

Oobabooga is a great tool but it still has a long way to go in term of user-friendliness. It's absolutely not plug and play the way that chatgpt is; It requires research, trial and error, and knowledge of the tech to make the model work to its full potential. It's great once you finish setting it up, but it does not compare to what you would expect from a commercial product aimed at normal end-users.

Things like bad default values, no tooltips, an no curated model list to one-click download is what separates a tool like Oobabooga from a paid commercial product. These things require time/money and it would be very unlikely that an open source tool could find resources for all the testing and R&D.

I think there is a big market for products where you pay and can just start chatting with the model without having to ever go to the settings tab or google anything unless you need to do something out of the ordinary.

Is that more than someone might think of? Maybe, but it's not that far fetched if it's something you want to do.

What's hard to get a normal person to do is distrust Google or Facebook et. al.

Edit to point out that normal people who are marginalized by society actually know about this stuff and already do things like this, like having pre-warmed backup accounts on social media platforms avoiding most major banking platforms or diversifying payments platforms to limit impact and hosting their own websites.

There are a lot of simple things you can do to become less dependent and people who tent to find themselves in those places can seek these things out.

> It is pretty beautiful how such small, centuries-old traditions seem to abound in Japan, where the condition of the west seems to be a state of persistent impermanence.

Orientalism at its finest...

First of all, "the west" is not a single monolithic block, but dozens of countries, each one with its own peculiarities.

Second, Western countries also have plenty of traditions, in the case of Europe going back centuries or even millennia. The thing is that the environment you grew up in doesn't seem fancy to you, it is just normal life.

Third, some Japanese people care about traditions, some do not, same as Western people. Heck, to me it seems like Japan lives in a state of permanent consumerism, always catching the latest popular anime or idol group.

TAIT stands for `type Alias = impl Trait;`, which would let you do something like

type Alias = impl Display;
fn foo() -> Alias {
42
}
fn bar() -> Alias {
0
}
fn main() {
let x: Alias = if rand() > .5 {
foo()
} else {
bar()
};
}

If you changed bar to return a &str, for example, that would be a compile error.

There's also the related

- RPIT, "return position impl trait" (we already have this)

- RPITIT, "return position impl trait in traits" (the foundation for async unctions in traits, `trait T { fn foo() -> impl Trait; }`)

- AFIT, "async functions in traits"

No, you shouldn't need to know what these things mean, beyond them "just working" in terms of what you would expect from writing impl Trait in different places.
