I would ask a doctor but I'm waiting for the authorities to confirm my residency before I can register for one and it's been a month already. Can't afford a private one either as of now.

Like I said in another comment

> I have been taking cold showers for months due to my financial situation and I have gotten used to them. At worst I'm curious about the gravity of long-term negative effects on my health. On the other hand, I would be relieved if there weren’t any. At best, the potential health benefits are just a bonus for me, but not necessary, to be honest.
For 40% of global use cases there’s probably probably little to no risk.

The rest is probably a mix of good, bad, ‘just enough’.
One of the best CSS feature to be ever added in my opinion ! Also, what happens if an app ships nested CSS to some user who has not yet updated his browser ? Does the app brakes ?
Continue as an open source project by building features and refining the product. Once you have enough users you can start offering premium features and support to organizations. Maybe even apply to an accelerator? Good Luck!
We have lab data showing that microplastics also disrupt metabolisms. So this is not quite the escape hatch we might wish it was: we have good reason to suspect that microplastics are also contributing to obesity.

(Of course this doesn't fully remove our extremely sedentary lifestyle and highly unnatural food supply either)
That's my question to you. Why did you omit the first part in your quote?
See above, public apology to everyone. Meant to reply to "Stirlitz, the Russian James Bond" specifically. I read most "good" sci fi I can get my heads on. To me it goes something like Stephenson, Vernor Vinge, Gibson, Harry Harrison for the "campy" stuff, Asimov very much in that order, though I know I will be crucified for putting Asimov last. Then there are good one-offs like The Forever War, Ender's Game, the Oumuamua book (whatever the actual title is). I specifically dislike The Three Body problem and the fact that modern Nebula awards can no longer be trusted. Out of historical fantasy, the Merlin Trilogy by Mary Stewart is absolutely amazing, at least as a teenager. Which reminds me that "The Nine Princes in Amber" is horrible. Hopefully someone recommends something.
Both work, but I think the range elevators simply have no exits for the unsupported floors and can go high speed to the first supported elevator. They probably do have exits though, in case another elevator breaks down.

Taller buildings will require you to transfer to a different elevator once you've reached a certain floor; one because else you get cables that are hundreds of meters long (with the weight to match), and two because else you'll need more elevators and -shafts to service all hundred+ floors in a timely fashion, which takes up real estate / floor space.
The installation experience for PWAs is still pretty poor. I've seen very few good examples of PWAs (probably because of this). And I've even bothered implementing a few. My conclusion after doing that: waste of time, users mostly ignore PWAs.

There are many additional features a web app is capable of when installed, like native notifications, file system access, file associations, etc.
"Slow": I removed Windows on a freshly installed laptop less than 6 months ago. Its latency was noticeable in spite of running a 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12850HX. This is not a case of Windows "becoming slow", but of Windows "being slow". You could argue that my point of comparison is unreasonable, because I disable so many things in my operating system that I don't use that it's no wonder. Before starting my browser, I use less than 200MB RAM. My UI response time is lower than what my eye can perceive. I don't know exactly how fast that is, but I think gamers begin to care at around 10 ms.

Diffusion of atoms through solid materials is one of those things I intellectually know happens, but still don't really grok. Sintering is one of the weirdest things.

Why does squishing things together AND warming them up cause the particles to stick together more than when you just squish them together or just warming them up?
I don't know how much this is present in US culture, but in the UK the prospect "beating" Germany in any form makes politicians and media outlets of a more nationalistic bent very excited indeed. That they are also very fond of references to Britain's "finest hour" in World War II probably gives away the reason why. It probably also helps that Germany has the kind of onshore manufacturing economy coveted by those same people(even if this is now turning into a problem) whereas the UK is actually more service orientated.

There is no football match that an English football fan will more willingly talk about than Germany's 5-1 home defeat against England during the 2002 World Cup qualifiers!
in the actual example, from the information given, I think the engineers were indeed trying to patent something obvious to them, or else they wouldn't have explicitly said it was obvious to them (speaking as an engineer)

I guess I need more convincing, 1st that there is indeed full context exonerating the "obvious" quote from meaning what the words mean, and 2nd that it wouldn't work to just provide that context to resolve the matter (e.g. if it truly is exonerating context, why wouldn't providing the context exonerate?)

when I asked for that detail, I just got a snide, uninformed remark about the answer being obvious, from someone who clearly could not come up with an answer
A few years ago I realized we passed a threshold and that voice recordings had been “handled” (meaning you could conceivably use compression to record audio 24/7 and store it without too much cost since 1 year was about 1TB and multi-TB drives had dropped in price).

Then that fact sat in the back of my head for a bit and I wrote it off since “yes you could record it all, but then what? It takes so much time to filter and edit that you’d have to make the choice between filtering and actually living”.

But now, we’ve reached the edge of a different threshold: AI will be able to do the filtering and sorting.

I suspect that this means those who stored everything they were even remotely interested in will have an advantage. They will be able to have AI reveal the gems that others will have lost completely.

There is a lot of desert where desalination is typically used. Seems like putting problematic water soluble in places where the main problem is lack of water would work out ok. Unless they are also blown around by wind in some problematic way.
What features are built and playable at this point?

Both that headline and article are cringeworthy. You can’t extrapolate a bunch of flawed experiments like that to anything real.

If you're hardcoding it sure, but at that point you should consider just using a module with bare functions. This pattern is for when the lookup value comes from somewhere else, and to use it with attributes requires a more awkward getattr() call, and it has a less obvious error message if the value isn't in the lookup.

The tunnel-vision on this subject is truly astounding. I can't think of any subject that is treated in the same way.

Say that someone was failing at university because they have no motivation. And they have no motivation because they have depression. Then a vocal minority would always butt in with the following truism:

- Failing university courses is caused by not studying enough. There is no subverting the fact that you need to study the material in order to not fail the course.

This is of course a completely useless advice/truism.

Now say that someone overeats because they have depression. Or because of some pathology caused by microplastics. Or let's just say that there is a possibility that a different environment (no microplastics) would lead to them not overeating. Do you still want to derail this conversation with irrelevant “thermodynamics” truisms?

You sure about that? There are several EVE battles that involved multiple thousands of players at once.
Absolutely I do. It's an excellent experience to me. I've never enjoyed e-ink.

First up, excellent ergonomics. The screen is on a natural stand. I hate holding up a tablet/e-reader and always trying to rest it on something. I can change page with space-bar/cursors/touch-screen/touchpad which helps avoid my hand cramping unlike a device that supports a single grip with your thumb hovering/doing the same action repeatedly for hours.

Split-screen notes and ebook on either side with any OS chrome like top-bars, task-bars on auto-hide is beautifully minimal. With a proper keyboard, it's a wonderfully productive setup for technical reading. Navigating e-books efficiently, copy-paste sections, cross referencing multiple books and related web-searches are all vastly easier on a proper computer.

I don't experience any eye-strain with a screen set at minimal brightness with some off white/black e-reader colours.
True you can’t just assign it a complex task and expect a perfect result in the first answer but using it like Google e.g. one query and one response is not the best way to use it. It’s a chat bot, it’s been optimized for multi turn conversations so use it that way. Pretend you are messaging someone on slack, discuss the issue with them, explain things, ask for feedback, point out mistakes etc. For more advanced use leverage its initial training as a text completion engine and give it several examples of prompt and response up front or write the first part and ask it to complete the rest.
There's a massive set of articles pertaining to the topics. You won't be able to grok all the terms from a simple graphic, it's a massive project.
Thanks for submitting the article! Let me know if anyone has any questions. If you are wondering how Apple obfuscate its software, the answer is simple: they built some extensions for LLVM that applies code transformation directly to LLVM IR. LLVM IR is an intermediate language to represent the code that will be copied in binary.
The researchers claimed that they had first tested it with a few different vendors' routers without any issues, but they had not included FRR in those tests [0].

I work at a major research institution with a canteen and literally all of the Germans in my research group eat at the canteen. When I walk past it is very full.

Germans have a meal called Abendbrot which means "evening bread".

When COVID hit, Germans struggled to cook food at home, even leading to house fires https://www.dw.com/en/coronavirus-pandemic-reveals-germans-p...

My wife's startup does not have a canteen, so the Germans order in fast food. She is British like me so she has a small lunch and a big dinner.

> How expensive is food in Germany that people have no independence to buy and prepare food?

It is cheap but the work canteen is also often cheap. People have independence to buy and prepare food, they just don't want to.

> vast majority of people won’t agree with that nonsense. Leave it in the 1900s.

I don't think this is worthy of a response.
Ok, fair. Mac resources, including CODE resources, could be modified by the running program and unless marked as read-only were saved to disk by the relevant Manager before unloading. Photoshop was noted for its unusual use of disk, which was said to work like a virtual memory system.

Due to lack of protected memory, a few programs, especially on the earliest machines, with the least memory, 'abused' the display buffer by using it as RAM. Of course, this corrupted the screen, but it would all just be drawn again as soon as the program yielded time to the OS. Back then, only one user program could be running at a time, and it mostly had the screen to itself, so why not use it to copy floppies with less disc swapping?
It’s odd to me that you don’t like the phrasing “America is using…” and want it to read “The Southwest portion of America…”. Millions of people live in the Southwest and it is part of America.

It’s not a problem for just the Southwest. It’s a problem for the whole country. Massive amounts of food derive from the use of groundwater in the U.S. and we can’t just shift production easily. This would cause huge disruptions in the food supply and for the economy. It requires federal solutions. It’s a problem for America.
If only we could use something to transport large amounts of liquids long distances.
Of course they run statistical analysis, but you cannot apply those methods to a case by case evaluation. The stats just let 3M know how hard they are gonna get screwed, and it's not like they are totally innocent anyway.

>At that point everyone who was exposed to that phenomenon DOES deserve the payout

That's the crux right there. The only evidence of being exposed in many of the cases is simply the person's word.
I was going to say, most Electron apps (as opposed to say, VS Code) offer the user no benefits over just using the website they're wrapping.

They do offer benefits to the app purveyor, because apps have access to your system that you'd never allow a web site to have.

You appear to have misread the part of my comment that you quoted. I said:

> the main cause of climate change

You for some reason thought I was talking about the "main cause of climate". What an odd misreading.

But at least you're not making wildly inaccurate claims about climate change, just missing the point. You do believe in the accepted scientific consensus on climate change right? Now that we've established we're talking about climate change, and not just the climate.

Yes, it should work in Cloudflare, you'd just need to use the JS adapter for whichever APM you use (Datadog, Honeycomb, Lightstep w/ more coming soon). The library provides import functions you pass into your module instance, and as long as the Wasm was instrumented before you deploy the Worker, you should have no issues. Please let us know if you hit any though!

This is aimed at people who lack the ability to do that. Lots of not so technical people that operate small websites that don't employ developers.

If you know what you are doing, making websites is easy. But most people don't and that's why things like wordpress, squarespace, webflow, tumblr, medium, substack, etc. exist.
Mozilla seems to see potential for abuse with this, which is why they are not offering an API for this.
> After taking a compiler course in uni I found the emphasis on dealing with syntax mostly a waste of time. To begin with, do yourself a favor and use S-expression syntax (like Lisp) for your language. They're dead simple to parse. With the syntax out of the way, you can get to meat and potatoes of implementing a language. Later on you can always define a "look" for your language, and you can spend an inordinate amount of time on that.

I maintained same attitude for years.

I've changed my mind now. Anything feature I want already exists in some programming language. The only distinguishing feature I can offer when designing a new programming language is "very readable", so syntax matters more than I used to think.

Whether you get traction or not depends a lot on syntax - if your syntax is too much of an outlier compared to mainstream languages, your features don't matter.
Python is the second best language for everything. Even with its warts (which any language gets after 30 years), it's a very solid, defensible choice.

However, it does not have a great concurrency story relative to languages that were built concurrency first (Go, Erlang), and it's fair to acknowledge that.
No, these are very unrelated things.
I can definitely see it being a lot harder when it's 'not tonight thanks' versus 'I don't drink'. I've never heard anyone try to persuade someone teetotal to start, and I assume in a group there'd be voices of reason stepping in.

At just 3-4 times a year though you could probably get away with the latter? Even if the same people present they'd probably just be briefly confused and forget or move on I'd have thought.
Apple Realizes It’s Swimming Upstream, Supports California Right to Repair Bill

Why is everyone so angry and skeptical in these comments? I agree the article is operating on old information, but what's going on here?
I will concede that "I suspect you have lived a very privileged life" was overly focused on you, and should have been something like "Nobody should seriously consider these options unless they are living a very privileged life". Your actual personal history is not relevant my argument at all and I shouldn't have brought it up. I maintain that most employees have basically zero leverage to negotiate their worker-hostile contracts, and that it is not a good idea to saddle yourself with $300k of non-dischargeable student loan debt in order to try to avoid a practice that is pervasive in the U.S.

> anti-“corporate overlord” conspiracy

It's not exactly done in secret. Would you call a feudal serf a conspiracy theorist if he was ranting about how the Dukes and Kings hold all the power? I'm lucky that I have more leverage than an Amazon warehouse employee but it's awfully hard to compare their working conditions to Jeff Bezos's situation and not call him a "corporate overlord".

> Oh, and apparently you really love your job after all despite all the prior ranting about how much you hate your job.

This is just getting boring. Yes, I both love and hate my job. So?
I would argue that the NY Times writing about "America" as if California + New York == America far predates the magnitude of economic importance California and New York now have. There has long been a coastal bias in the US, which predates the migrations of business and population to the coasts, where everything in the middle is disdained and not due any consideration.

The reality is, when it comes to groundwater anyway, all you need to do is look at land area vs mountain ranges and you can form a pretty intuitive understanding of water flows, since water flows to the lowest spots until it eventually reaches the sea or seeps into the ground. The parent to your post is very correct, California because most of the state is between the sea and a close-in mountain range has minimal ground water outside its direct watersheds, and must use intentional irrigation and pumping to move and use water. Consequently, they are one of the primary users of water originating in other parts of the country. As someone residing in Colorado, we are /well/ (no pun intended) aware of how water is used and how water rights work, and the reality is that California has an out-sized usage compared to other states, and frankly takes more than its fair share.
When trn says that I/O is handled by the FNP, he actually means terminal I/O and communications I/O. Actual disk, tape, and other peripheral I/O is performed by the Input Output Multiplexer (IOM) — yet another hardware component in the DPS8 hardware suite. The CPUs. IOMs, SCUs, and FNPs are emulated by the DPS8M simulator. And yes, the DPS8M simulator supports multiple of these components for a single Multics system.
