I had a really bad bout of systemic c-diff causing colitis among other symptoms; and at one point I honestly felt like I was on deaths door. This occurred a few weeks after I was on antibiotics for something else. C-Diff is very resistant to antibiotics so if you kill off the other bacteria it outcompetes in ones system very quickly.

There have been a ton of articles and studies that show fecal transplants (FMT) from a healthy donor are one of the most effective ways to cure an overgrowth of c-diff. I couldn't get a doctors appointment at a specialist for weeks and was desperate so read the studies and methodologies in detail and did it myself. The key is finding a healthy donor. I decided my 8 you son would be perfect as he is super healthy and generally has the same diet as I do. I won't go into all the details but suffice to say the basics involves a mixer, sample, and enema which you then retain for as long as possible (2+ hours ideally).

It was the single most transformative medical treatment I have ever tried. Within a day or two symptoms were down I'd say 80% and within a week I was 100% better (which was confirmed a few weeks later when I finally got an appointment for blood testing and colonoscopy) Not only that I actually felt better than I had in years; consistent brain fog and ADHD symptoms alleviated as did some of my allergies. I was absolutely blown away.

I strongly believe this will eventually be viewed as a go to treatment for all kinds of neurological and other pathological diseases. I could imagine donor samples being further refined to increase or decrease specific micro-organisms contained to better target specific illnesses. There are several companies that have developed fecal transplants that are conducted via pill form in which the outside is sterilized in order to get rid of the ick factor.

>"It's entirely possible gut microbiome is a causative factor (even partial) in the obesity epidemic too. Everyone is obsessed with the CICO idea, but humans are not a blast calorimeter and the actual absorption, satiation, or metabolic paths all have obvious links to the gut microbiome (much more intuitive than the links to neurotransmitters)."

Absolutely. In fact as I was researching fecal transplants I came across a couple of interesting medical case studies in which obesity from the donor was passed to the recipient (which also underscores the importance of donor screening) [1]

A lot of people here seem to be missing a critical point: the government are actively using this information to alter the narrative and create a chilled environment.

> Cases have also surfaced of the Department attempting to silence voices critical of government policy. Early years specialists Ruth Swailes and Aaron Bradbury have previously faced attempts from the Department to cancel their conference due to their earlier critiques. Similarly, Dr. Mine Conkbayir, a renowned early childhood author, was allegedly threatened with funding withdrawal for a conference she was scheduled to keynote, due to her criticisms. As she recounts, the Department also attempted to curtail her talk duration and verify her speech contents, pulling the strings of academic dialogue.

... People here seem to think all this creepy data is just getting shipped into a box, rather than being deliberately acted upon.

But it's very clear that is not the case. The reality is far more disturbing. We're looking at primary school teachers suffering in their career (!!!) for the 'crime' of criticising policy. That's insane.
This will be one of the signs that I've won the lottery, all my benches will be from Proline :-). The radio lab at work had them and I was quite impressed both with the fit and finish and the flexibility.
One take I have when this topic comes up is that older, more efficient programs and assembly language instructions are the nanotechnology and atomic level of software. We just are making the same progression, backwards, that hardware technology made from bulk materials to computing with the smallest number of individual atoms. So when you see a 500 MB app doing the same thing that used to be done with 50 MB, 5 MB, or 500 KB it's kind of like looking at a 10 micrometer process CPU from the 1970s and marveling how much atoms it wastes to make a single gate when we could do the same thing with just a few atoms or fit many gates into the same footprint with 2020's era tens of nanometer processes.

Of course "progressing in reverse" is the same thing as saying we're regressing.

I think I like the idea. This is easily stated as having different framings, though? Similarly, I could ask what makes this different from "affordances, features, and constraints?"
That depends a lot on the flight phase. Losing all engine power seconds after take-off is very often not recoverable.
Part of me likes this approach, but another part of me is hesitant putting the local government in control of all of the network infrastructure. It could conceivably allow local officials to turn it all off during a protest or something; similar to what we saw during the Arab Spring events.
I hope these ARM chips are Apple-level ARM designs. Apple has an ARM license that allows them to completely design their own cores. Only Apple's ARM designs have cutting edge performance. Everyone else (Qualcomm, Samsung, etc) uses stock, or nearly stock, ARM designs off-the-shelf that, performance-wise, aren't at all competitive with AMD/Intel. I'd love a Surface Pro with an M1/M2 chip, but the Qualcomm ARM chips are dogs.
No one who's considering buying a house is only intending to stay there for 1 year.

Using this timeline for equity comparison makes 0 sense. This is more of a reply to the GP, than your post.
Yes with mixed results.
I'm grounded for life by the FAA due to a history of mental illness.

Here's what I would accept: a stipulation/restriction on my medical regarding how often I go to therapy, when, and maybe even giving the therapist power to ground me temporarily.

But it would have to apply to only people like me with that restriction.

And that's for a history of depression. I don't really deal with clinical depression now.

Instead, the FAA wanted me on antidepressants, with all of their side effects, and I could not justify that. My wife has never known me on antidepressants (we met over a year after I got off), and I don't know how it would affect my marriage.

But constant therapy and checks? Yeah, I would take that in a heartbeat. I even grounded myself one day after a night where I had to deal with external problems; I wanted to be safe.

IOW, the FAA treats me like a problem; I would love if they treated me as a professional, and I would respond in kind, by being the kind of professional they want.
Ye ok I was too young at the time to notice. I agree with the phenomena though. Unless you look you don't notice really. It is like if someone presses a switch and the consensus changes for no reason at all.
> Nvidia has quietly begun designing central processing units (CPUs) that would run Microsoft’s (MSFT.O) Windows operating system...

> Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.O) also plans to make chips for PCs with Arm technology...

> Qualcomm plans to reveal more details about a flagship chip..

(That would be the Nuvia core, I assume)

Really, just read the whole thing. Its a brief but juicy report.

Anyway, I wonder if Nvidia is going to make an SoC or a discrete CPU. Seems like an either-or proposition, as a big CPU with a small IGP (like AMD/Intel) doesn't make much sense for Nvidia.
> This makes zero sense. Terrorists call for terrorism, ergo anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism? You'll have to put up a better argument than that.

The same people calling for antizionism are also calling for attacks on Jews. But anti-zionism is just antisemitic on its face: it means "I don't want Jews here in the middle east" (despite it being their historical home where they've maintained a constant presence). Here in the west (in the US and much of Europe, anyway), we generally reject the idea of using ethnicity as a reason to reject people from moving here. Imagine if we refused Native Americans from repatriating, but we called it "antitribalism" or something instead of the obvious racism that it is.

> The actual history of the conflict starts with a bunch of European Jews turning up in West Asia and claiming that it was their land on the basis of a story book.

There actually is a long history of Jews in the middle east, well supported by historical and archaeological evidence, and genetic studies (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_studies_on_Jews and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_and_Judais... , you can find endless books and studies on the subject). They were exiled by multiple wars with the Romans, Arabs, and others. There were also ~600,000 Arab Jews who were exiled from various Arab nations in the middle east in the mid 20th century as well, who overwhelming went to Israel.

Early Zionism (late 19th century to 1948) was all Jews purchasing land in the area. They didn't just come and take it. Of course, there were plenty of socioeconomic issues here: Jews were buying land from wealthy landowners who lived or moved to other parts of the middle east, which often disrupted Arabs who lived or worked on that land prior to it being sold. Conflict with the Jews was thus twofold - partly based on the ancient religious strife, partly a socialist uprising (which was ultimately usurped by fascist populist groups like Fatah and Hamas). The Ottoman empire had controlled the land for hundreds of years, the population of the area had plummeted to a fraction of its historical population, and out of the Ottoman empire's fall, new national identities began to form, and with them, new nations - Palestine and Israel amongst them (also Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon...), and some of the Palestinian identity arose as a response to the rise of Israel. I'm going to refrain from going into further depth here, as I could write a novel. Recommended reading: "Palestinian Identity".

But to say the conflict starts at the point where there were the least Jews there is, at best, inaccurate, though it is convenient for antizionist narratives.

> European anti-Semites were more than happy with this arrangement because it meant their Jewish citizens would leave. Even the Nazis worked with the Zionist Agency to enable some 60 thousand German Jews to emmigrate to Palestine.

No argument here.

Love the acerbic humor style as well.

Lots of great lines. Enjoyed the highlight of the cognitive dissonance in citing the benefits of "transparency.

>"The retail experience consumers want and deserve," Cooler Screens says on their website. I would admire this turn of phrase if it was intended as a contemptful one. Cooler Screens promise to bring the experience of shopping online, "ease, relevance, and transparency." "Transparency" seems like a poor choice of language when promoting a product that infamously compares poorly to the transparent door it replaces.
I am happy for you. Now, what do you think, was the ability for you to delete accounts worth the fact that the mayor of my town keeps winning elections in spite countless corruption charges and scandals - all conveniently wiped off the internet?

Regulations are usually well intended but second order effects are rarely thought out at all.
I'm moving from NYC to CA next week for exactly this.
That's what they do here in Utah: UTOPIA (the municipality) runs its own fiber lines, and leases its network to private ISPs. That way, there is a single physical network with competitive pricing.

Of course, that doesn't stop Comcast, Centurylink, Google Fiber, etc. from running their own networks, and UTOPIA's coverage generally doesn't overlap where these other ISPs already have infrastructure.
You didn't feel it two years ago when crypto and Web3 were going to fundamentally change everything?

I'm glad they're taking some action, but how about using some of that big business money and lawyers to try to get the law changed? Why haven't some of the big companies gotten together to lobby for fixing the law so it can't be abused so easily? I get that the rights holders are much, much more powerful and have many, many more lobbyists, but with enough funding we could do public-facing ad campaigns and start trying to raise awareness for the general public.
Ha, that does sound somewhat un-smart. Of course, when I imagined clever, it would include enough state and timer-based behaviors to recognize a bad trend and protect the traction battery too.

It should be feasible to monitor voltage levels and rates of change and signal an error condition rather than silently destroy itself...

The Walgreens a five minute walk from me put these in ~ a year ago. Even though everything was fully functioning at the start, I already knew it was a terrible idea and it would only get worse.

The one, single thing that could be a positive over glass doors is that if someone holds a door open too long, condensation builds up and obscures the view. But in every other respect these LCD panels make the experience worse, often dramatically worse.

As for the contextual ad part of it -- I never saw ads, just pictures and prices of what supposedly was inside. If there were ads I would have only resented them. But in fact the panels are often down, or show the wrong information due to them not tracking inventory well.
For the work they do.
Huge technical and communications skills requirements.
The trust required.
And shortages.

Pilots seem to very underpaid and overworked.

I'd think twice about flying on any airline if I thought or new they were anything less than pampered.
As it happens, this is very close to the original Catch 22: only crazy pilots would voluntarily fly missions during war, and crazy pilots are not allowed to fly, but if you realize that it's crazy to fly, you're obviously not crazy and thus have to fly.
How long until we get AI politicians? All over the world, the human ones provably suck[1], we need something better. It's no longer a metaphor that democracy has failed, it really has.

You hereby have permission to organize code as you would like!

I think your complaint is fair but I'm not sure it is a fault with Rails so much as I've rarely seen anyone interested in organizing their Rails code more than the default.

Personally, I think it is really helpful, especially when it's as easy as using modules or having interfaces between modules. If you want feature-based structure, I'm pretty sure you can do it but that'll be a bit more involved. There are some gems out there that support those efforts.

I've found with Stimulus/Hotwire/Turbo that separation of concerns and finely composed partials can help a lot.

Thank you for replying!

To be honest the next phase could well be described as old and boring. It’s certainly a phase in which the positive side is being more confident in oneself, but on the other hand being much less malleable to the dynamics of the world around you.

The next change will come from within so one could argue it’s almost deterministic from here onwards. Set your course well!
> Not only is this a lie you've been willingly sold, it appears you've bought it and taken it home.

That was unkind. I didn't think we behaved that way, here, but I'm often wrong...

It certainly can be done, but that usually means the shareholders need to hold off on that second lambo. That doesn't often play well, in the boardroom.

That was the charlatan crap that took over in the last 10 years. Once upon a time, people actually cared about tech for it's own sake, and spent time geeking out and having meetups for the fun of it. Not everything was a "networking opportunity" to grift into a 6 figure PM role. I'd say 2014ish was about the time those things started becoming >50% nontechnicals and recruiters, which was about the same time that every last drop of real culture in that city made an exodus to the east bay.
This is great, the amount of boilerplate it takes to write an iterator is a bit cumbersome right now. Looking forward to see how this fares as it moves towards stable.

There might even be a slight benefit to it, via the deadheading pilot being able to passively observe another crew at work, as well as being able to possibly support the crew in case they start making poor decisions.

I've listened to a couple of flight incident investigations, and it doesn't seem to be uncommon for experienced deadheading pilots to offer helpful suggestions in case of trouble.
Naruto run. Don't even need to read the article.

"Without external energy (but with external device attached)" is ... a bit disappointing. At what point does it cease to be running and start to be run-assisted catapulting? Or catapult-assisted running? It seems like more than just running.
It's changing, though. There was an FAA rep at OSH'23 that held a forum and admitted they're not prepared to handle an entire generation of young pilots that were exposed to ADHD medications as children. He's working to change the system but it's going to be a while.

There have been some small changes here and there. One example is the fast-track change to ADHD history. From first glances you can skip the CogscreenAE if you've been off the meds for 4 years and pass some other criteria.

First off, 45% of the population of Gaza is below the age of 15.

Secondly, https://theconversation.com/hamas-was-unpopular-in-gaza-befo...

> Support of armed resistance was not always present. When Hamas openly fought the Palestinian Authority – which governs the West Bank and questioned the legitimacy of Hamas’ victory – and seized control over the Gaza Strip in 2007, over 73% of Palestinians opposed that seizure and any further armed conflict.

> At that time, fewer than one-third of Gazans supported any military action against Israel. Over 80% condemned kidnapping, arson and indiscriminate violence.

> If read over time, polls of Gazans from 2007 to 2023 tell a story. They help make clear that Gazan support for armed resistance grew alongside increasing frustration, anger and a sense of hopelessness with any political solution to their suffering.

What are we protecting our kids from?

If we coddle people too much we risk people not... talking to other people. That's already happening. Maybe instead of tech the world should be focused on physical things, like new innovations in building technology. We have so many homeless people, in my opinion, because we're constantly focusing our attention on tech - which is a skill that a smaller percentage of the population has a brain for.

The trades need to come back, we need to beat SA in projects like "The Line" - and in the words of Joshua Weissman - But Better.

We're at risk for just continued class divisions and potentially a war because we're turning a bunch of coddled spoiled kids into a millionaires that are being looked at with massive disdain.

Maybe the internet should move back to being a background resource, not a precursor to ADHD.

First step is convincing Windows development community that Windows on ARM actually matters.

No, this is a different sort of spring-loaded mechanism that allows you to put energy into it when you retract a leg, then unleash that stored energy when your foot next hits the ground.

"However, the current top speed of augmented running, 11 m/s, achieved using a spring prosthesis in series with the legs (13), is 10% below the top speed of natural running. A spring in series with the legs can mitigate collisional energy losses but requires the legs to provide a large force to support the body, unlike the wheel of a bicycle (10, 13, 14)."
I've loved Forestry as it was just enough. Tina is a bit more complex but still great. I've migrated some sites to Netlify CMS when they've depreciated Forestry only to have Netlify spin out the CMS as Decap (horrible name) which was on ice for some time. Why can't we have nice and simple things anymore? Constant escalation of complexity is just tiresome.
I'm a little doubtful about that second argument.

I find Shorts annoying, but at least on the web YouTube and on the app version that is on my streaming devices Shorts are grouped together making them easy to ignore. It's not like they autoplay or are animated. They just take up a little space on some pages.

In fact, the shoe was not banned and it is one of the most widely used marathon racing shoes out there. Nearly all other running shoe companies followed suit and made more efficient racing flats with carbon plates and high energy return foams. Some restrictions did come out, including limits on the "stack height" racing shoes and more stringent restrictions on the track. The current generation of these, the alphafly 3, were just used to break a world record in the Chicago Marathon by Kelvin Kiptum. Those are unreleased as of yet.
Because the best chip designs in the world are made by Apple, Intel, and AMD. ARM's chip designs are years behind those three. Apple has shown ARM can have excellent performance, but they are the only ones to do it so far. Android users have shown that they don't care about buying new phones with CPUs that are slower than 3-year-old iPhones.
