It is irrelevant to the conditions of the time which the Nakba was carried out, and irrelevant to the topic:

>If 2 families solely inhabited (owned) an island, since pre-history, and Family 1 sells the entire island to newcomers, while Family 2 takes no part in the deal or its approval, and does not cede their land to the purchase, then any court in the land will, quite rightly, hear Family 2's case that they are still the owner of their regions of the island.

Which describes the Balfour Declaration if Family 2 accounted for over 90% of the territory.

The current Likud party also recognizes their claim to the territory "from the river to the sea" does not involve the will of its other residents, as in the Family 1 & 2 story:

> Judea and Samaria will not be handed to any foreign administration; between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.
Harada Says Tekken 8 Costume Cheats Will Be Banned
Strong second for wishing they tried physically testing some model output. The importance of "model that makes outputs AlphaFold thinks look like Cas" is very different from "model that makes functional Cas variants".

For design tasks like in this paper, I think computational models have a big hill to climb in order to compete with physical high-throughput screening. Most of the time the goal is to get a small number of hits (<10) out of a pool of millions of candidates. At those levels, you need to work in the >99.9% precision regime to have any hope of finding significant hits after multiple-hypothesis correction. I don't think they showed anything near that accurate in the paper.

Maybe we'll get there eventually, but the high-throughput techniques in molecular biology are also getting better at the same time.

Who is going to pay for the telescopes? Are the constellations going to fund them? Who is "someone"? I say that the constellations are responsible for messing up the sky and should pay for the fix.

The cost of Webb wasn't the launch but the telescope itself. Folding it up to fit in rocket cost a lot extra but it would still have cost billions. The Hubble-sized Nancy Roman telescope, with much gifted by NRO, is going to cost $3 billion. The extremely large telescopes being built on the ground are almost as expensive.

It might be possible to build and launch a bunch of say 1m telescopes cheaply. But "someone" would need to fund it since it isn't something that company would do.
Maybe one hack would be to have a binary "restricted" flag communicated through the ISP's reverse IP lookup (probably very slow). It wouldn't put any personal information at risk, but it would probably open Pandora's box, except that Pandora's box had hope inside of it.

1) IP address from "Restricted Region" connects to website.

2) Server attempts a reverse IP lookup and waits for reply from ISP's DNS.

3) If DNS reply contains "restricted" (on behalf of the subscriber), server has to restrict access, etc.
Depending on how they treat oversubscription, Wireless ISP's cant really offer this speed reliably, so they would lose their subsidy.

So building housing in a remote area only served by a WISP gets more expensive.

Launching several doesn't solve the issue of needing a design and construction that actually works. For something nobody has ever built before and we can't really test in zero g without launching etc.

Unfolding the heat shield was a relatively minor design issue compared to say the instruments, we just had less ability to actually test it on the ground.
Indeed. Which makes all his subsequent contortions all the more absurd.

tl;dr: metabolism is all you need.

while potentially interesting work, very shortsighted and premature to say this is a "GPT" moment in biology. ML people in bio need to think hard not only about what they are doing, but why are they are doing it (other than this is cool and will lead to a nice Nature publication). Their basic premise (learning from DNA is the next grand challenge in biology) is shaky. Imo, the grand challenge in biology is determining what the grand challenge is, and that is a deep scientific/philosophical question.

If you're looking to reupholster, I've had great luck with https://www.slipcovershop.com/. They make custom slipcovers and sell affordable cloth by the yard that you can use to easily reupholster stuff yourself if the shape is not too complex.

Other than that, I wish this article went less into things that don't matter (properly sized brackets are no worse, and sometimes better, than joinery, etc.) and more into the ergonomics, types of foam and other materials that actually matter. Like, how do I tell how long a cushion filling or fabric will last, or tell if there are springs that will sag without taking it apart.
> My experience is that only a few applications will max out my 115Mbit/s connection, and given I have semi-decent kit and a decent ISP using the full bandwidth doesn't have a big impact on latency so I can be streaming, downloading, and have multiple people video-calling and that's fine.

My experience is that people rarely feel constrained by bandwidth because everyone is fighting to optimize every last bit, often using varying techniques that sacrifice quality. Not a single video calling app that I’ve used recently feels like it’s actually delivering good video to me. They're all bitcrushed. They work for some meetings at work, but I would really love a much higher bandwidth connection for screen sharing on Discord and practically every streaming app.

Latency is also important: don’t get me wrong about that. But the fact that I have 1Gbps and I can’t get high bitrate video down kills me.
Broadband was usually differentiated against dial-up. Today it may be compared to cellphone service, but 4G and 5G nowadays are plenty fast enough.
I think a burden of proof lies on you if you believe California's claims are wrong. Show me a case when such a case was thrown out.
Thanks! But, quadratic time complexity (which I had heard that attention requires, which doesn't surprise me) is not exponential time.

I acknowledge that they related this to the assumption of the SETH (which surprises me a little). But, this doesn't mean that transformers take exponential time. I don't think I understood what you meant by the "with a reduction in expressability" part of the statement, so maybe that is the reason behind me not following.
>There is usually not much point in making more than one tablespace per logical file system, since you cannot control the location of individual files within a logical file system. However, PostgreSQL does not enforce any such limitation, and indeed it is not directly aware of the file system boundaries on your system. It just stores files in the directories you tell it to use.

seems like the limitation is the logical file system. Which probably will work for most users.
I recall a popular rails gem[1] once upon a time that provided multi-tenancy via postgres schemas.

As it turns out, even the company the initially developed the gem ended up ditching the approach due to some of the issues you outlined above.

Managing separate schemas feels like one of those nefarious decisions that make things simple _initially_ but get you into a world of hurt when you need to scale. The company is since defunct but they have an article where they discuss why they ditched the approach [2], TL;DR it's too difficult to maintain and scale

The thing with ADHD(maybe I am a special case) is that my focus tends to shift quickly and freely. What I might enjoy for a few months will no longer be fun, and I will move onto another subject that catches my attention, preventing me from fully delving into learning a craft, to the fullest extent. I envy people who can dedicate a majority of their time and focus into one particular thing, like programming or art. I've done both, enjoyed them, but moved on again. I still do enjoy them, but I would leave them for months, and when I come back, I am back to square one.
Their rationale for this choice is covered in the article somewhat extensively near the top.

> Additionally, over the past few years, we’ve developed a lot of expertise on how to reliably and performantly run RDS Postgres in-house. While migrating, we would have had to rebuild our domain expertise from scratch. Given our very aggressive growth rate, we had only months of runway remaining. De-risking an entirely new storage layer and completing an end-to-end-migration of our most business-critical use cases would have been extremely risky on the necessary timeline. We favored known low-risk solutions over potentially easier options with much higher uncertainty, where we had less control over the outcome.

TL;DR they were working in a short timeline, with a limited team size, and wanted to minimise any risks to the business.

Clearly cost is an issue for Figma, but downtime, or worse data loss, would have a ginormous impact on their business and potential future growth. If your product is already profitable, your user base growing fast, and with your ARR. Why would risk that growth and future ARR just to save a few $10Ks a month? A very low risk DB migration that lets you keep scaling and raking in more money, is way better than a high risk migration that might save some cash in the long term, but also risks killing your primary business if it goes wrong.

You don't have to. Every IKEA store has shortcuts to quickly go to the section you want. And at the start, after the stairs usually, you can go directly to the restaurant and to the small stuff section, if you want to skip the furniture show rooms completely.

In my opinion, this is a failure of due diligence on behalf of the Mozilla Corporation. I'm sure their legal team is jumping into incident response mode right now.

The same terms page you agreed to which both limited their liability to $500, and granted them indemnification from liability.

> Firstly, I have read in the past that mushrooms must be boiled before eating to remove toxins.

Not sure where you read that. Some mushrooms can be eaten raw. Some should not be eaten raw, but can be eaten cooked. _Many cannot be eaten even cooked, and may kill you if you try._

The article’s generally talking about single-cell fungus, not mushrooms, in any case. As a concept, mycoprotein for food has been around in a while; notably quorn showed up in 1985.
This would probably hit the childcare industry very hard. Overtime-exempt employees would still need 5 days of childcare per week, but the employees of childcare facilities are much more likely to be non-exempt. So those childcare centers will have to send their prices even further into the stratosphere to either staff up, shell out for overtime, or convert their staff into salaried.

This would make life a lot worse for salaried parents.

The significant thing that makes this less challenging than the bizarre and inflammatory fears in your last paragraph is that FNs are simply seeking jurisdiction over land use on their lands and over their people that are part of their FN.

You seem to be dreaming up scenarios that FNs themselves have not been advancing.

The day to day reality of someone who is not part of a FN that lives in an existing municipality doesn't change at all.

The most significant changes are for resource companies that seek to make use of crown land that now have to have additional conversations with a FN about resource projects instead of just the Province, and this is pretty much already the case and they're already doing this.

Maybe the worst case scenario for a typical British Columbian is that a backcountry enthusiast could find a potential activity limited by some FN that seeks to limit access to their lands.
I haven't watched it but surely, hopefully pathological lying in court can get someone in real trouble regarding perjury instead of just the case being lost
