Rice cookers are super lenient with water quantities. Sometimes they "beep" for being done a little early, I've found that leaving the rice for like 10 minutes in the cooker after it's officially done to help a lot with consistency.

Also are you sure you aren't using parboiled rice, which needs slightly different measurements?
Haven't magnetic drives (maybe even tapes ??) been a better option for at least a decade ?

IN PARTS of the country. In other regions (Catalunya, Andalucia) there is an ongoing drought which is severely impacting everyone and yeah, hydro-electrical companies had done some, let say questionable decisions regarding their water reservoirs.

> It isn't like two other random people that didn't want to be were accidentally divorced.

Arguably, yes, that is exactly what happened here: If the lawyer intended to do this for some other couple and only did it for this one by mistake, then the couple that were divorced now are the "two other random people".

(And as for "didn't want to be", isn't that what this whole system with preliminary application, waiting period, and final application is for? As long as you haven't made the final application, then no, it isn't regarded as, well, final that you really want to go through with it.)

If a passports are accepted it should not create a problem for most foreigners/immigrants. And Thai passport doesn't look too different from others: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_passport guess an untrained worker will not spot a forgery but that's true for no matter which country's passport do you use and something like an US driving license looks easier to forge than Thai biometric passport.

Is not the purpose of a model to interpolate between two points? This is the underlying basis of "hallucinations" (when that works out /not/ in our favour) or "prediction" (when it does). So it's a matter of semantics and a bit of overuse of the term "hallucination". But the model would be useless as nothing more than a search engine if it were to just regurgitate it's training data verbatim.
One other trick when the administrator had locked down the Registry Editor was to use the EDIT.COM program to modify REGEDIT.EXE and corrupt the "DisableRegistryTools" string, and save it in some directory you have write access to. Then it wouldn't read the value keyed by that string in the registry. If I remember correctly you'd have to open EDIT with a command line parameter that enabled binary mode, something like "/78".

Sometimes the Run box and the Command Prompt were locked down too, to get around that you could navigate to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 in Explorer and run FTP.EXE, then use the "!" command to run whatever other commands you needed.

If Microsoft Office was installed, another easy way to run whatever you wanted despite lockdown settings was to open Excel or Word and go to the VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) window with Alt+F11, and use the Shell() function from the Immediate pane.
> under what basis could the court rescind the divorce and compel him to become re-married?

They wouldn't really compel him to become re-married, he'd just never have been un-married in the first place.
This got me thinking, just looking at the number of entries on the nutrition label seems maybe a little misleading? Most natural "whole" ingredients would have hundreds of entries if you had to list all the constituent substances individually. How many different chemical compounds are there in an apple or an egg or a hazelnut or a cut of beef? In that sense, foods constructed in a lab entirely from stock proteins, carbs, food dyes, flavorings, etc, would be "purer" than home-cooked farm-to-table meals.

Not that that makes them better (I think they're clearly not) but it calls into question the appropriateness of "purity" as a metric. I'm mostly just musing out loud here.
If solar and wind can be used economically in the west then of course developing countries can also use them. In fact, most of Africa has more sun-hours than typical western countries. Solar and wind can also be used where there are poorly developed electricity grids as it can be produced where it is consumed.

I wrote a userscript that turns the links into a /v/ link. The whole "shorts" concept is sort of stupid. I mean the videos are fine, let people make whatever sort of video they want. the front page promotion is unwanted. But the thing I actively despise is the scrolling auto play interface. However youtube will play the video with a sane interface when the /short/ link is modified into /v/

Or I should say, I nearly wrote a userscript to do this, it mostly works but I still find myself manually changing urls. I am not good with JS.

"Kraken was initially built with a BitTorrent driver, however, we ended up implementing our P2P driver based on BitTorrent protocol to allow for tighter integration with storage solutions and more control over performance optimizations.

Kraken's problem space is slightly different than what BitTorrent was designed for. Kraken's goal is to reduce global max download time and communication overhead in a stable environment, while BitTorrent was designed for an unpredictable and adversarial environment, so it needs to preserve more copies of scarce data and defend against malicious or bad behaving peers.

Despite the differences, we re-examine Kraken's protocol from time to time, and if it's feasible, we hope to make it compatible with BitTorrent again."

We have something similar in Denmark. A government SSO. We use it for Banks, student loans, water bill/meter stuff, hospital and doctor bookings, taxes ..and probably more.

It's pretty neat. If you switch bank you still use the same login. Makes it also easier for elderly / not so technological proficient people.

Not sure how I feel about using it as age restrictions on private websites. I don't think DK is doing that yet.
I get it, self hosting is fun (until user count is > 1), but I wonder how long a $6 VPS would be able to handle the same load before you'd "break even" with the cost of 4 Pi's, as well as the ~12W required to run them, as well as the 5-7W required to power the switch.

Assuming it's 20W in total, that's 14.5 kWh/month, which even as US prices of $0.15/kWh adds up to $2.15 per month. In Europe you're closer to €5/month (€0.35/kWh)

I am nearly 70 years old.

I have been taking psychedelics for 50 over years. I am retired psychotherapist and I do not have a predisposition to mental ill health. I was also a substance misuse worker and methadone dispenser for over 10 years. I gave up smoking hash when I was 40 years old.

I did notice that with the introduction of skunk and the increase of up to 20% more Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), there were more and more people being sectioned under the mental health act with psychosis. Whereas prior to skunk when people generally smoked good old fashioned, Moroccan, Lebanese and Afghani hashish it was a rarity.

I know a range of people of different ages who partake in psychedelic use and have no trouble, like me, in holding down a professional job role and engaging fully in life.

As with all drugs there is a risk, however, the risks with Psyceedelics are very low in comparison with other drugs.

We must not use individual cases to determine the safety of any drug.

Here in the UK the media went wild over reports that a 18 year old girl (Leah Betts) had died from taking MDMA. Very rarely are the true facts given; The coroner said that "water intoxication", and not an allergic reaction to the drug, was the cause of death.

I have a great deal of respect for Professor David Nutt who is an English neuropsychopharmacologist specialising in the research of drugs that affect the brain and conditions such as addiction. His recommendations to the government to reclassify drugs were rejected and he was sacked.

Reminds me of this article by Dan Luu: https://danluu.com/cocktail-ideas/

> A line I often hear from programmers is that programming is like "having to build a plane while it's flying", implicitly making the case that programming is harder than designing and building a plane since people who design and build planes can do so before the plane is flying1. But, of course, someone who designs airplanes could just as easily say "gosh, my job would be very easy if I could build planes with 4 9s of uptime and my plane were allowed to crash and kill all of the passengers for 1 minute every week".

We tend to think that some problems are only as complex as our understanding of them.

Industrial emission of CO2 is the main factor; there's not much deindustrializing economies can do beyond deindustrailizing. And, of course, pat themselves on the back as they do so.

There's zero economic, social or political cost to western policies at the moment and they arent reducing CO2 emissions. It's very much "green theatre".

The goal is to stop the actual levels of Co2 ppm from rising. This is all fairly meaningless; it does nothing to change the actual outcome.
And 1945. Double whammy. Germany never made a comeback.

The anti-science culture revolution of the 1970s cemented this. It's cool to be bad in science in schools since then, every celebrity boasts about how bad they were in mathematics etc.
This makes sense only if this measures the power of the "empire" rather than the power/GDP of the region. "China" made roughly 20-40% of the world total population [1]. If you include nearby regions not under their control, Japan, Korea, Vietnam and also include India; you are pretty much looking at the population of most of the world. This is still true even today.

This region has the best geography to create massive populations. And massive amounts of people generally correlated with massive powers. The only exception to this was during the early periods of globalization that culminated in Colonialism.

Empires do wither out but their populations do not mostly disappear; which gives "re-birth" to other empires. China-India were always the center of the world but the same couldn't be said for their empires.

Basically, what's happened is that people aren't storing very much locally any more. Everything is on streaming services, stored on some server on the internet somewhere, and accessed on-demand. The only people who actually use lots of local storage are developers and pirates; everyone else only needs enough for their OS and installed apps plus some extra for cache and the the like. Most people just don't care about owning stuff any more, or having any real control over their data.

This. Everything or at least nearly everything is consistent and logical. The goal of the game is for you to piece out how all the element relates together.
I'm still digesting the full article, great different angle to look at things. My comment hence is purely focussed on the reply of mr_toad.
For me, the core of the mesh idea is the fact that everything is a people and cultural problem, that's the core of the paradigm. I do agree however, that too much content on the topic addresses the technological implications of it. It's (only) the means to an end.
And this people and cultural problem, needs to be fixed both bottom as up. Yes, you need to find developers who care about the data, but you also need management to not slap them right back. In fact, it should be managers to tell developers that it is their job to offer the data back to the organization in a reusable format. That's when you have reached a true data literate and data driven company.
What the mesh idea tries to resolve, is that a central data team can not understand all domains and business goals and data linked to it. Rather than pursuing this dream, it aims to explain to the domains, and in your example developers and admins, the value of data in general, which just might have a bigger chance of success.

The goal is to stop co2 ppm from rising in the atmosphere beyond dangerous levels, these arent policies to stop that happening, they're polices to replace minor sources of co2 emission (electricity use in developing countries).

I mean if people want to believe all this matters, so be it; but it doesnt. The goal isnt to replace coal power stations with solar ones, it's to stop co2 levels from rising. They're rising 20ppm/decade, iirc, and none of this does anything to change that. maybe it stops them from rising faster than they would have done.

Since the number of pixels on the x-axis of the canvas is typically much smaller than the number of samples, you have to reduce the number of samples. This is very prone to aliasing if not done right, especially if you end up just drawing a line between the points. I found a good way to avoid aliasing by taking the min/max values for each chunk of samples and then filling the area in between rather than drawing lines between points. If you zoom in to a point where the window is only a few values, this will converge to the same result as just drawing lines between the samples.
