A recent air quality comparison demonstrated that there wild fluctuations across most brands. Nonetheless, I think it’s still helpful to see the changes in the environment, and to understand and observe how leaving a window open, or doing some activity, or handling some volatile substance, or how seasonal dust and pollen can affect hay fever in your own little microcosm.

I think nobodyn is forced to engage with it precisely because it's not the popular currency. If it were, than the same would be true of bitcoin: its inflation would mean someone is stealing from you (your boss, for adjusting your wage too slowly).
I have, unfortunately, found "low speed" mode on air purifiers to be not very effective at improving air quality.

Measured with an Airthings sensor, in my 1970s house, low-speed mode just clears temporary indoor-source pollutants marginally faster than having no air purifiers. In the case of exterior-source pollutants (i.e. wildfire smoke), low-speed mode is insufficient to keep PM2.5 in an acceptable range.

And this is with five air purifiers throughout the house that are sized for a significantly larger space.

All things being equal, the simplest answer tends to be the correct one.

AI, Interest rates, economic this or that, are all complex issues with many different facets.

Software Engineer salaries were at an all-time high when the bottom dropped out of the job market for Software Engineers.

Paid too much. Explains the layoffs in companies doing well. Explains the sudden lack of interest in projects. Explains all of it. Simple.

Companies instituted a plan to drop the salaries of some of the most expensive tools they owned. Collusion? Unlikely. Lemmings is more likely. Well Company X did it. Maybe we should look into that ourselves. Do we need so many SEs?

Which is simpler? Earnings were too high and companies corrected, or some mysterious combination of economy this, AI that?
No sound on Chrome either.
The same can be said for many - maybe even most topics in engineering higher education. 99% of the stuff you'd learn in an advanced controls course ain't running anywhere, but it's a body of knowledge we want to maintain and grow because if it was applied everywhere, it could make everything better. Maybe the economics or the politics aren't there today, but you never know where it will come in handy.

I 100% get why you're saying it: the fear is that with all of these contraptions in mind, we send a generation of engineers out who immediately reach for their performance bazooka when all they needed was a pocketknife. But SOMEbody is doing actual high quality engineering and needs to reach for this stuff. It's MIT: there's a chance those people are in the room.
That people came together and said yes this is a good idea let’s do this - where are their spines? Why didn’t someone tell that dude with the weird huge hands that he’s got a stupid idea?

I did some online searching and yours is the only claim I’ve found that this variation is used in the current era of demonstrations. The article I just cited seems pretty sure that this old variation has gone out of fashion in favor of the current one:

> Friends and activists I have asked remember this phrase being used during the Oslo era, when it was adapted and developed as part of a critique of and complaint against a Palestinian leadership from Tunis that surrendered claims over historic Palestine. At some point, the phrase became the rhyming couplet that it is today: “Min al-nahr ila al-bahr / Filastin satatharrar” (“from the river to the sea / Palestine will be free”). It is this version—with its focus on freedom—that has circulated within English-language solidarity culture from at least the 1990s.

> For instance, some variants promote an Arab nationalist frame (“Palestine is Arab”), and others propose an Islamist frame (“Palestine is Islamic”). In contrast, the current version [emphasis mine] (“Palestine will be free”) expresses an open-ended but emphatic aspiration for liberation—this has allowed it to resonate with other freedom struggles.

Now I did find material for the Arab nationalist variation, including a rather catchy protest song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldX9UEVJo0g). I don’t speak arabic so it is possible that the older variation is still used and discussed on the arabic speaking web, however I’m not finding it at all on the English speaking web, I can only find it being discussed in the historical context.
Encountering someone with a serious anorexic eating disorder, or watching a loved one with cancer -- who was formerly slim and healthy -- whither away their insufficient fat reserves while under treatment... can put things in an entirely different perspective. My mild obesity doesn't seem so bad now. I'd rather have a little too much and be fine with it... than be psychologically tortured by it, or not have enough in case of health emergency.
I think you'll be amazed at the extent to which BTC will be able to be controlled by strong central governments. I'd be shocked if in ten years there's not granular control over which wallets contain "tainted" bitcoin and cannot be converted to fiat except through actual money laundering. There's been a lot of consolidation of the exchanges in USA, tons of KYC controls in place now, and old-school options like localbitcoins.com or craigslist have disappeared or been nerfed beyond recognizability.

If people no longer "need" to convert BTC to fiat, this would no longer be a point of a control, but until then, governments can already and will continue to grow how much they can control BTC flow.

Some of it is currently very ham-fisted, but there's a clear intent to devalue off-exchange wallets: https://www.coincenter.org/new-crypto-tax-reporting-obligati...

There's no evidence that Michael Rae has an unusual or wasteful metabolism. 1900 kcal/day really isn't very much. With his size and input level (CI), a moderate activity level (CO) would keep him in energy balance.

Note that there is no reliable evidence that caloric restriction to the point of having an underweight BMI will actually extend human lifespans. The experiments have all been done on smaller lab animals living in safe little cages where they are protected from injuries and infectious diseases. Under nourished humans are at severe risk of sarcopenia as they age.

ripgrep is not for me.
On form 1040, under “IRA distributions - taxable amount” (box 4b), TurboTax filled in the amount of my IRA conversion. It should have been left blank.

This caused my taxable income to be increased by the amount of the conversion. Not good. My biggest mistake was not being more diligent about looking over form 1040. I feel like it should have been a pretty obvious error.

>The US doesn't enforce this rule of course, and therefore it's not unusual to meet a female American with Polish roots with the surname "Kaminski" (or sometimes even "Cumminskey").

Also it's a common choice for translators of books written in those languages to give female characters the masculine versions of their surnames so readers won't be confused about who is related to who. Perhaps an extreme example is that some English translations of a particular Tolstoy novel have the title Anna Karenin.
> move large amounts of money untraceable.

paradoxically, bitcoin is the worse at this, since addresses are completely public. Unless you, like satoshi, keep the coin in the address and never spend it, any conversion to value that you can spend, such as cash, is going to be tracible.

> Is it a legitimate want?

yes. Unless you can prove criminality, there's the assumption of innocence.

my tool has some major differences with lolli Extention:

It will be a built-in tool on an e-commerce website to reward customers with cryptocurrencies using smart contracts. It aims at small businesses that cannot spend cashback on every purchase and want to create a temporary, short-term cashback campaign on their website.
People buy regular items using fiat; if they participate in a cashback campaign defined by the shop owner, at the end of the campaign period, they will receive crypto as cashback automatically.

It's not a third-party app like the Lolli extension, and it's not cash back on every purchase. It can enable the shop owner to define their own customized, built-in crypto cashback campaign on their website.

main features: low fee, customizable, automatic payment at specific date and time, and integrated into the website.
Just asking "Does that work?" can demonstrate this. Slightly contrived example (I've trimmed the ChatGPT output down - it gives some warnings about code readability and that it only has knowledge up to 2022 that might be useful if the code worked at all):

> User: how can I pass two parameters to a hugo partial as positional parameters (without using a dict)?

> ChatGPT: If you want to pass parameters as positional arguments without using a dictionary, you might need to work around this limitation. One approach is to use a custom data structure, such as a slice or an array, to emulate positional parameters. Here's an example:

{{/* In your main template */}}
{{ partial "yourPartial.html" "value1" "value2" }}

{{/* In yourPartial.html */}}
{{ $param1 := index . 0 }}
{{ $param2 := index . 1 }}

[ChatGPT has also suggested in other runs that the values can be accessed with {{ .Param1 }} and {{ .Param2 }}]

> User: Does that work?

> ChatGPT: I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. I made an error in the example provided. Hugo's templating system doesn't support passing parameters as positional arguments directly, and my previous example was incorrect.
By your logic then, Signal is just a method for terrorists and child predators to communicate? Do you hold that opinion of Signal?

Military hardware isn't magic unobtanium that exists in some parallel plane with unique physical conditions.

The choices being made for the F-35 have much more to do with government tender processes, military red tape, corruption, and general government incompetence than physics or engineering.

PS: It turns out I had misread the L3Harris info page. That spec isn't for the existing F-35 computers that are now about 20 years old, but for the TR-3 upgrade which will start rolling out in mid-2024!!! These new "flying supercomputers" will be 16x faster than before. This is equivalent to upgrading from a 1994 Intel Pentium to an Apple Watch Series 1 from 2015.

This ChatGPT/AI thing kind of freaks me out the more I peek at it.

I think what I am beginning to realize is that, regardless of what you think of ChatGPT right now, we've only just scratched the surface.

We're standing here poking at this new and curious thing.

I'm thinking back to when I first fired up NCSA Mosaic on a Mac Quadra (or whatever). What did I think of this World Wide Web?

Did I immediately see the disappearance of travel agents, the death of the newspaper, the collapse of the music industry, the slow decline of Hollywood and the rise of streaming services? Did I imagine the rise of digital commerce and the shuttering of brick and mortar stores? Digital currency? Digital navigation?

Of course I didn't.

One wonders what exactly will seem so obvious ten years from now when we're so fully ensconced in this brave new world we've only just taken a step or two into.

I'm kind of fascinated and frightened.
That’s a small fraction of BTC holders. The majority don’t care and leave their coins on exchanges, which act like banks but unregulated.

What do you mean by “diversity?” If you’re talking about superficial differences, then you’re correct. China is an example of a country that has different ethnic groups, but where they’ve managed to erase most sense of distinct ethnic identity and created cultural homogeneity. So you can have an orderly society with ethnic diversity.

But the US has cultural diversity—which is different than race. Diversity that actually makes people different—culture, religion, etc.—is a source of conflict everywhere. It’s not about race. On the subcontinent, we’re all “brown.” But we made different countries for the brown Hindus versus the brown Muslims, and then we split the brown Muslims into Urdu speakers and Bangla speakers. And it’s just easier that way.

In America, even the folks we consider “white” are actually different, culturally distinct subgroups. Appalachians are different from New England WASPs who are different from Italians, and the strife and disharmony between is the reason for a lot of America’s problems. And if Massachusetts was a country by itself and didn’t have to care about what West Virginia was doing, everyone would be happier.

The proof of the pudding is in the eating. Name me a socially harmonious country (like say Denmark or Japan) that’s also culturally diverse. The only one I can think of is Singapore, and that’s a very unique situation where you’ve basically got a strongman keeping everyone in line and working together.

What Bitcoin is really missing before it can finally take off is yet another layer of fees and rent seeking; can't wait to pay 1.5%(!) of my portfolio every year in expenses :)
> People are salty they work in tech and don't understand bitcoin.

i smell sour grapes from those people. They saw bitcoin very early on, and gave it the dismissal way back in 2008/9. That missed "opportunity" continues to bias them into thinking that their initial assessment must still be correct (for dismissing it early), otherwise they'd have to admit their dismissal as being hugely mistaken.
For personal finances, I use Microsoft Money 2004 edition, running in a windows 2000 VM. Once a month or so I go in and add all my transactions. I don't actually use it for anything, though. Spend less than you make and the rest solves itself.
It’s on mission to the degree you think it will help the public slowly and naturally become acclimated to agents.

It will track the price now that it is an ETF, that's solved. Fees are still insane so it will slowly dwindle as people sell it in favor of other options, but it will still exist for a long time because people can't sell their existing holdings without triggering huge capital gains taxes.
Some people are just like that. The same thing happens on the other side of the fence alarmingly often, where someone will claim Bitcoin is the second coming of Christ and sell their home before knowing basic technical details about the network. Or people who fully understand the system, and deliberately lie about a coin's functionality for petty gain. On either side there are people promoting altruistic regulation and acceleration, but at a larger scale we're mostly describing greedy businesses (on either side) and... put politely, "government dissidents".

So, as is the case with any meaningful investment, you have to ask "cui bono?" with cryptocurrency. Very plainly, you're risking normal money on a venture that doesn't promote anything other than greed and black market transactions. The hackers on this site will oppose it in favor of information freedom and a less money-influenced internet, and the greedy bastards will oppose it because they'd prefer one party owns everything from the start. It's a nuanced situation with lots of different people, good-faith or not, who will oppose or support cryptocurrency for the wrong or right reasons. It's straightforward and non-predatory to say that most people are better off keeping their pay-stub out of the alternative currency market.

GPT can be a fantastic time saver, but it is unable to check itself.

You absolutely need to do the research to check it and correct its output.

It's like a power tool: potentially very powerful, but it'll make a huge mess if you let it run out of control.
The Twitter case is a great illustration of how the media industry is not like mineral extraction, agriculture or manufacturing. The ability to steer public opinion, however gently, is so valuable politically that media is always going to be controlled by political and not economic forces. When the ADL puts political pressure on advertisers to boycott twitter it makes any talk about an "independent press" completely absurd. The press will do what those with political power tell it to do, or it will go out of business one way or the other. The collapse of X just means Elon Musk isn't doing what the people with the most power in the US want him to do.

See Wikipedia for a bit more detail[0] but induction cooktops use a magnet to directly heat your cookware. They can heat faster and more exactly while remaining more consistent over time. They are safer because the cooktop surface is not heated and is often actively cooled but also because they can detect the pan being removed or not really being on the burner and disable themselves after a bit. The magnet gives far greater control over the results for better range. With electric coils and gas, I rarely had the consistency or stability of the high/low temperature that is trivial on my induction stove which allows me to use it the same way I use use a slow cooker. You may need new cookware since it'll need to be magnetic/ferrous.

I've had a few issues with the Samsung we bought (not nearly as many as the other Samsung appliances we bought at the same time. So I wouldn't necessarily suggest that brand specifically and I don't remember the brand names I used in the UK before returning to the US.

Neither drugs nor gambling, in and of itself, harms anyone but the individual doing it.

However, said individual could harm others in the persuit of drugs and gambling when their own income or savings are unable to satisfy their own cravings. But how is that any different from any other forms of harm from crime conducted for other reasons?

What makes you think that the Chinese aircraft industry will not offer free pilot training and dumping prices to take over the market? If allowed will happen, have no doubt about it.

We as passengers will suffer it, costs over safety. have no doubt about it

China industry works as one entity, backed by the state. The model is to enter the markets and to dump the prices until the established industries are knocked down, and finish with a Chinese company buying the broken ones (when the different governments allows it, what not always happens).

Hawuei and ZTE was selling equipment at lower prices than manufacturing costs, and subsidizing antennas. In 2012 it was started to be investigated in the European Union, and finally was banned due 5G networks and the recent espionage suspicions.

Of course it would take less than 1900 to get there. But it would take around 1900 to stay there, according to our models of basal metabolic rates. And it turns out that this person stays there at 1900, so our conclusion is that the BMR model we're using fits this data point.

It's possible that for some people at such extremes commonly available models would break down, but clearly for this person, they haven't. And while BMIs of 16 are relatively rare, so are 6 foot tall males that eat an average of 1900 calories for years.

Ultimately if you're trying to use this case to show that the models are inaccurate, that's not what this case does, it's actually remarkably close to what is predicted and if anything would be better used as evidence in their favour.
