Looks like they only have a certain set of drugs related to overdose deaths

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/drug-overdose-data.htm

> Drug overdose deaths are identified using underlying cause-of-death codes from the Tenth Revision of ICD (ICD–10): X40–X44 (unintentional), X60–X64 (suicide), X85 (homicide), and Y10–Y14 (undetermined). Drug overdose deaths involving selected drug categories are identified by specific multiple cause-of-death codes. Drug categories presented include: heroin (T40.1); natural opioid analgesics, including morphine and codeine, and semisynthetic opioids, including drugs such as oxycodone, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, and oxymorphone (T40.2); methadone, a synthetic opioid (T40.3); synthetic opioid analgesics other than methadone, including drugs such as fentanyl and tramadol (T40.4); cocaine (T40.5); and psychostimulants with abuse potential, which includes methamphetamine (T43.6). Opioid overdose deaths are identified by the presence of any of the following multiple cause-of-death codes: opium (T40.0); heroin (T40.1); natural opioid analgesics (T40.2); methadone (T40.3); synthetic opioid analgesics other than methadone (T40.4); or other and unspecified narcotics (T40.6). This latter category includes drug overdose deaths where ‘opioid’ is reported without more specific information to assign a more specific ICD–10 code (T40.0–T40.4) (4,5). Among deaths with an underlying cause of drug overdose, the percentage with at least one drug or drug class specified is defined as that with at least one ICD–10 multiple cause-of-death code in the range T36–T50.8. Two additional categories were added based on CDC’s Opioid Overdose Indicator Support Toolkit (6): drug overdose deaths involving natural, semi-synthetic, or synthetic opioids, including methadone (T40.2–T40.4); drug overdose deaths involving natural and semi-synthetic opioids, and methadone (T40.2–T40.3). These new categories, which are a combination of existing categories, are not displayed on the default figure to facilitate ease of display of the main drug categories, but are accessible through the drop-down box that allows for selection of specific drug categories.
Just a reminder that Ronald Reagan got his start making up baseball games: he'd read the ticker with the bare bones of what was up (Joe X at bat strike ball ball foul Joe X on 1st Bob Y at bat) and then dramatically pretend to be at the game for the benefit of the listeners: "Joe X strides to the plate, swinging his bat. He swings...strike! The pitcher, impassive, looks at the ball...and like lightning throws another pitch, but the ref calls it wide."

Doing it mechanically doesn't seem any worse.
A couple of notes on the article, that I disagree with, backing it up by "appeal to authority" through my decades as a beek.

> These man-made hives have very different thermal properties compared with their natural habitat of thick-walled (150mm) tree hollows.

Bees, including Apis mellifera will build hives anywhere where there is sufficient cover, space, and ventilation, not just "thick-walled (150mm) tree hollows".

> On cold days in these thin-walled hives, colonies form dense disks of bees, called a cluster, between the honeycombs.

The presumption is that the human made hives are less thermally protective because they are "thin-walled". This is just patently incorrect. There are many, many hive designs and many are made out of wood, but many are made out of plastics or even styrofoam. Their thermal protection can be significantly higher than 150mm wood (later noted in the article
substantially insulating, such as 30mm of polystyrene".)

Bees do not form a dense "disks of bees". They form a ball, and rotate in and out with the queen around the center, just like the referenced penguins.

I could not identify the type of hives that were evaluated. From the picture, it appears to be a tiny apiary with Langstroth design, all with three full/deep/brood boxes. From the pictures in the paper, they evaluated eight hives.

I am willing to learn, but this single article provides insufficient details how the data was collected and in what context was done.

Most non-initiates think that beekeepers somehow control bee colonies like cows or chicken. Not so much. If a colony decides they want to leave, there is almost nothing you can do about it; they will leave. If they figure they did not like the winter, they will move. A hive will be just fine in a felled log, a hollow tree, or human made space for years without any interaction. It is more of a symbiotic relationship than a stewardship.

What benefits will I gain as a programmer by targeting D-Bus instead of something less complex and generally more portable?

D-Bus is how XDG and Red Hat software gets onto a Linux system. Without dbus, lots of software with braindead design can stay off of your machine.

PIDs, sockets, FIFOs, and other similar constructs can achieve IPC just fine.
Yeah. I think this is the real problem. Electronics let parents slack off on parenting but electronics do not replace socialization.
I’ve had the pleasure of contracting on a cloud migration project, and then a little while later an on-prem migration for the same project. I helped that company build a cost model for comparing their on-prem and cloud workloads, and they ended up moving quite a bit back on-prem. Even for the workloads they didn’t move, having a better way of comparing on-prem and cloud TCOs helped them negotiate much better pricing for their remaining cloud workloads.

One legitimate challenge is that it’s actually rather difficult to measure the TCO of each option. I’ve seen companies pushed to get better at that as they experience cloud sticker shock, and as large enterprise pushes more and more work to the cloud, I’d expect to see them continue to improve in this area.
This is cool and very useful!

Out of curiosity, what's your take on how to write "this item requires repair"?

"It needs repaired" is something I've seen, which to me is confusing, because it seems like "to be" is missing. When did "needs" run away from the words it's been associated with before?

> The vaccines really do work against deaths, and the newer variants are less lethal.

Non sequitur with no evidence. New variants being less lethal is the only consideration. Sweden famously had no lockdown, and the total death rate (feb2020-nov2023) is 25,590 despite no vaccines and no lockdown when it was most lethal.

This is a common problem, especially for "crime" datasets and very emblematic of the kind of data capturing processes for each reported "crime" (really, they're some of the worst datasets because of the extent of imperfect information and incentives to capture some "crimes" some vs others). Send it through a geocoder like geocodio to resolve most of that problem. It won't be perfect.

Amtrak owns most (all?) of the NEC track between New York and Boston. Most other routes are freight train owned and Amtrak has issues. Though the freights claim the issue is Amtrak is late for their assigned times and once that happens they lose priority, if Amtrak was on time they claim that they would let Amtrak through on time. (one fright that doesn't let Amtrak through on time will cascade to being late for all transfers, so the freights can overall be right and still wrong just because of the one exception) I don't know how to evaluate this claim.
As a temporary injunction, yes.
I just got a job through hired.com. It’s nice because your mom can post her resume and add a statement detailing what she’s looking for. Companies can then request an interview with her. There are similar sites such as ziprecruiter.com. Also, I’ve found that generative AI makes it much easier to learn new technologies. I would encourage her to use them. Hopefully she can retire before they put us all out of work.
I just spent the summer traveling Europe, visited 17 cities where 14 were by rail. 3 were day trips.

Got so used to how easy it it to literally walk into a station and be on a train in a few minutes that I almost missed Turin->Paris when a tram to the station was five minutes behind schedule. Average connection was 5 hours of travel time, but factoring in getting to/from the airport, early arrival, etc, it was mostly a wash in any time saved. All in all, total cost for transport was about $900 (not including going/coming back from Europe, which obviously exceeded that).
Yes, the desire to paint them in a bad light is the entire point of the article. It's political/social narrative manipulation, not journalism.

Somewhere you need an lox and methane inlet to the currently lit raptors that does not experience transient no fuel events. Such events would create situations of incorrect fuel ratios, and fluid hammer within turbo pumps. Ideally hot staging would be completed without a negative acceleration event, thus the fuel would not slosh .

A simple mitigation method might be to allow for cold stage separation, allow for a period of free fall, use a fairly simple and weak cold gas thruster to accelerate the body forward and thus the fuel to the bottom and then relight the raptors.
Some guy drove into the side of a truck. Tesla is highly aware that the system is not perfect, that's why it nags you, beeps and flashes at you, kicks you off autopilot for repeatedly ignoring warnings AND makes you acknowledge that if you use it you are completely liable for any crashes.

If I drove into the side of a truck I would not blame my car.

You could easily extend the line of thinking in this article to all cars. All companies are aware their designs are flawed, but they let people use their cars anyway.

>and a collective agreement would actually make thing worse as it puts some restrictions on the relation between employer/employee.

The collective agreement puts 0 restrictions, it's essentially just a form of safeguard to protect employees from abuse. They can still have higher salaries, bonuses, longer vacations etc.

> I haven't had a single transmissible illness since I started wearing KN95 whenever I'm around people indoors

You mean you haven't gotten ill since you started being hyperparanoid about getting ill? Sure, that's not really surprising. Tying the result specifically to the masking itself is still speculative though, as would be generalizing your specific case to the whole population, eg. as you say, "decently fitting N95" is probably key, but how many are going to be that vigilant?
Yep: this is by intention. Here's the logic:

- I wanted to ship fast to see if anyone liked the idea and would actually use it

- There are a couple of safeguards in place:

1. Since you can only sign in via Twitter, you get a good sense for the other person (buyer or seller), as well as the likelihood that they own the domain they are claiming to

i.e.

7 followers, 3 day old account... probably doesn't own 'google.com'

17k followers, 10+ year account, active indie hacker... I can believe they own 'dwarf.domains'

2. Any sales are escrow'd by me as a middle party, so there's not much room to scam someone anyhow

So this isn't a perfect nor permanent solution, but good enough to test whether or not it's worth taking the platform further
This is kind of my point. It would be refreshing to see the CEO that would like our industry to build on top of his platform to show some humility. Do you care to admit to making any mistakes in your interactions, or is it all because we are just a bunch of haters?

So you're saying "needs" is not doing the needful.
Probably not. Plenty of toxic proteins have a published structure and are quite easy to grow in a lab (i.e. an undergraduate could do it). The problem with using proteins to do evil things is that they tend to have short half-lives, aren't easily transmissible, etc. There are some exceptions to this, of course, but there's far more practical ways to do evil things.

It's arguably the problem with any attempt at high speed rail in the US. Or even low-speed passenger rail. There's so much freight moving on the rails that there's just not much slack in the system for things not running on time.

As the parent says, the solution would be to add dedicated high-speed rails, but then you loop back to the US density issues. How fast would the Acela have to be for it to justify the price you'd have to charge to ever come close to paying back the cost to add a whole dedicated train line between Boston and Washington DC?

YouTube does not remove purchased videos, those are yours to keep watching for as long as YouTube retains the right to keep distributing them (which is separate from the right to rent/sell them; generally the rightsholder agrees to indefinite distribution rights for sales as a basic contractual provision since it would otherwise render the "sales" right meaningless).

Note that it is the exceptional case that YouTube would lose the right to show Paw Patrol to purchasers. Given the popularity of the show, something like that would have made national news. Politicians would be talking about it right now.
It screams corruption to me, this definitely sounds like one political group has infiltrated the governmental services and has gotten enough power to begin publicly target people/groups that they oppose.
That is the point of lay offs. They are not saying you are bad they are saying they don't need someone in your position.

sometimes a company will let managers in a different department that is hiring know about coming lay offs and ask/force them to take good people. this is rare though.

N95 vs. KN95 seems like an instructive example: people equate the two based on the effectiveness of the filtering media, but the salient difference is in the attachment mechanism --- most KN95s are ear-loops, and don't achieve especially tight coverings (similarly: the reuse concerns about N95s are less that the filter media can't be "recharged" or whatever, but rather that the elastic gives out).

At any rate: masks as worn in the real world seem pretty performative, for a variety of reasons.

If you're wearing them carefully, that's great, and I appreciate it. Nobody should be messing with you regardless.

You can look epidemiologically at this stuff and see that states with laxer regulations fared pretty well in the early COVID years, and appear to have fallen off only with the introduction of vaccines, which really seem like the high-order bit of COVID control.

Striking is one thing, but targeting an individual company is another. They are not striking, they are selectively denying a critical service to force submission.

I even used Durandal some in those cases where we really did want a SPA, but Knockout was good enough. That was something I appreciated about Knockout too was that the SPA framework was around it, not a part of it or implemented inside of it. Same with routing frameworks like Crossroads.js if you wanted something lighter than Durandal for just boring hash-navigation somewhere in the boundary spectrum between full SPA and MPA.

It was something that was also attractive about early React that React was similarly just a view engine and could do MPA or SPA or things in between and it didn't try to have the full kitchen sink. I don't know exactly where React stopped being that, but it always feels harder to argue that current React is "just" a view engine.

In the larger context here with this article, libraries that are just view engines should be great for building the internals of Web Components. (I'm hoping the view engine I've been working on might serve that role well, though with a dependency like RxJS I'm not sure if it would be towards the top of the list for many developers. It will certainly feel bigger than Lit, for example, no matter how well it tree shakes.)
Late to the party, but: this unfortunately doesn't seem to be true. There's no subset of C++ (or C for that matter) which is both safe and practical to use. This is why, say, the Chromium folks are seriously looking at adopting Rust. Same goes for the Linux kernel and their adoption of Rust, although of course that's a C codebase.

To rework an old comment of mine: [0]

There is no subset of C++ which is both safe and practical for real use. The MISRA C++ subset isn't enough to provide solid assurance of the absence of undefined behaviour, for instance. For that, you need a full-bore formal verification system, akin to that of the SPARK Ada language.

This is in sharp contrast to Rust, where there really is a subset which is safe 'by construction' (called Safe Rust).

I'm assuming there are a lot more trailers than trucks in operation, so this seems less efficient than hybridizing the trucks themselves.

Also depending on the type of operation, the trailer owner may not care about how much diesel the truck owner burns.

One benefit though is that the trailers could slow charge off of a basic 240V charger while parked at a loading dock between uses.

There are pros and cons. The ability to lay someone off quickly means someone in the US can risk hiring a bunch of people on a risky bet - if/when they give up on the project they can let the people go and cut their losses. Some of those risky bets pay off though and the people are not laid off.

Note that I said lay off not fire above. There is an important legal difference.

Why is the MiSTer listed as "used to perfectly emulate and/or upscale analog signals?"

MiSTer doesn't just concern itself with analog signals, it simulates the entire system and outputs the original analog signal or can upscale it for digital output on its own. This description could make somebody think it's just a scaler.
