Are you thinking of dresses specifically? If not, there's a lot of places where you can submit measurements you do yourself with a tape. It works pretty well for shirts/trousers/suits. I've used http://tailorstore.com/ but there's a few others. I feel like an app for scanning would be more tricky / unnecessarily complicated.

Yep, that's it! I settled for generating the manifest.json through a script, since at some point adding something only supported by one browser would cause an error in the other, though I think that may have been remedied now.
I get it. But you can get similar data from the old-fashioned way of measuring circumferences, weight, height, pinch test, etc to get body fat percentages, or the VO2 max approximation tests. The other thing to point out, is the only people getting/doing any of these tests are already motivated enough to give a damn.

Yes, medical care should provide information. There are lower tech and cheaper ways to provide actionable information. But like you said, it's up to the individual. Either the will is there or it isn't. If someone knows they would benefit from the visual representation of a scan, they can ask for one.

Sandpile mathematics, something that is studied by computer scientists and mathematicians, would be an approximation. Its not so much the level of the spike that matters but how often they spike is what conveys the signal. The temporal behavior is supremely important. It used to be believed that the rate is all that matters, but now, no longer.

There are ANN models that model these spike trains (that's what these 'avalanches' are called), these do work similar to real neurons, but they are not part of the deep neural network popularity [0,1]. Besides, backpropagation is not what goes on in the brain, its known to be biologically infeasible.

So all in all the traditional ANNs are nothing like real neural networks. That's ok, aeroplanes do not fly like birds, but they do still 'fly'.

Real world roads and tracks follow the principle that the curvature changes linearly with the curve length. This has the advantage that at constant driving speed the steering wheel has to be turned with constant speed as well.

So, the curve should really be a clothoid, sometimes called Euler spiral, but a cubic Bézier can be a good enough approximation.

> I'm talking about banks. That's literally their business. You know, to lend money.

Their business is to make money. If the economy is in the toilet, it is usually because there is no demand, and if there is no demand businesses and individuals do not need loans to expand and operate, so no one is asking for credit, so banks have no one to lend to.

The banks don't want the/your money: while a savings account is an asset to you, the other side of the ledger is a liability for the bank. And if they are to provide x% to the saver, they have to earn >x% to break even (adding overhead), never mind make money.

Just a little while ago in Europe, there was all sorts of excess savings (especially in Germany) with no places to invest the piles of cash piling up, so you get negative interest rates on savings accounts:

The way that the bank system works is that banks first create a loan and second look for reserves:

>She routinely runs defense for Antifa, who is a violent political extremist group.

Oh my sides.

The aryan nation, proud boys, and most other right wing organizations are either directly or indirectly violent political extremist group. From imprisoned white supremacists all the way to president trumps inner circle. Violence follows American conservatives.

https://www.adl.org/resources/report/right-wing-extremist-te...

Antifa, short for "anti-fascist," is an ideology rather than a formal organization. It's a loose collection of individuals who oppose fascism and other forms of extreme right-wing ideology. While some practitioners of Antifa ideology have engaged in violent actions, it's important to note that violence isn't inherent to the ideology itself. Antifa's core principles center around confronting and resisting fascism through direct action, such as protests and counter-protests, as well as community organizing and education.

Antifascists that perform acts of violence do so autonomously. Aryan nation members that commit violent acts do so either at the order of a senior member or will face violent punishment from their seniors for unsanctioned violence because such orgs maintain their power through wanton violence.

I am always amused when people project their worldview upon others who actively practice sophisticated direct action instead of vague gestures at conservative political movements.

TLDR- you don’t understand what antifa is and have shown your hand - revealing the fact you uncritically and exclusively consume conservative propaganda.

I asked on the mailing list years ago if there was an AST that I could generate from my general purpose language, and the answer was no. It's SQL and then it's bytecode.
My theory is that excessive linter rules might be a symptom of trying to compensate for the weaknesses of a programming language. I see it a lot in Python and JavaScript projects where the language gives very litte guarantees about anything.

If you use a programming language that affords some guarantees like Haskell or even just C#, people seem to be less interested in linters.
> You could do this with a third-party cloud service (and pay subscription fees for it), but in this model it seems consumer-unfriendly to me to not allow me just to back up and transfer my own keys, especially when it's not possible on all sites to register more than one passkey in the first place.

I get this, but I think it needs to be acknowledged that export presents a risk and that needs to be balanced. We might disagree with each other on which is more important, but I can certainly see a perspective that disallowing export (for a specific implementation) is more important than convenience.

I'm also not sure to what extent the spec / implementers need to provide functionality to work around the fact that some sites are not implementing passkeys properly. That feels a bit icky.

The account thing seems to be an issue for people who buy e-scooters on the secondary market (i.o.w. used). Often, the scooter is still tied to the previous owner's app.

I've found forum posts of people resorting to using the email/password from the previous owner, or sending a registered letter to SoFlow asserting the new ownership.

So, and now I'm speculating, it's possible that this is less about deleting the account than it is about unlinking a scooter from your account, and it is a way for SoFlow to dip into the secondary market -- each transfer nets them another 20 EUR.

It's also possible that this is a way for the new owner to unlink their scooter from the previous owner, with an associated service charge -- the checkout page requires proof of ownership. In that case, it might be a way to prevent fraud, i.e. people stealing scooters and resetting them; thieves are unlikely to pay 20 EUR for that, nor are they keen on tying their real identity to the stolen scooter.

Like I said, this is speculation and I'm not saying this is a good way to do it, and it's not at all explained on the website, I'm just thinking aloud here. It just seems unlikely that anybody would attempt to charge 20 EUR for a simple account deletion.

> Which quickly collapsed into If I can’t work hard, where do I derive my value from?

This really jumped out at me. As a society we have really screwed up royally when so many people derive their value, or own self worth, almost exclusively from work.

People should enjoy their work obvious, that's better than hating it. But especially when you work for someone else, work should ultimately be the "how" behind the rest of your life.

Humans were built to derive value from community and relationships, both with your loved ones and with nature. The fact that we have effectively imprisoned the entire society into working 8-12 hour days 5 days a week just so they can rush to get chores done and do it all over is absolutely horrible.

If you're reading this and this sounds familiar, go for a walk or plant some flowers in fresh soil. Call an old friend or go have dinner with some family and leave your phones at home. Don't let work consume your life, it will never fill the void.

No we don't, only local roads, not fare-paying passengers on freeways, not in NorCal. In Phoenix AZ they are still testing self-driving on the freeway on employees, not fare-paying passengers on freeway.

Wait until you see self-driving taxis on freeway and to/from airports, with fee-paying passengers, in traffic, in bad weather, at night. See how many accidents there are per million miles. Then the discussion moves to "How many accidents/fatalities are acceptable per million passenger-miles?"
They like to call it nudging. If you or I did it it would be causing and abetting.

I understand the attractiveness of this tactic. It’s easy to get people to do things when you can fabricate a grievance for them — you can even get middle class college kids to rise up in support of terrorists.

Sometimes jobs aren't just boring, but one is constantly stressed by absurd deadlines or communication efforts with bosses/customers whose expectations are both in line with business practices and out of reality. You surely get back home with a nice check, but no energy or will to spend it on anything fun. Being good at forgetting the workplace and associated problems when one walks out of there is an art not everyone can master, especially among those who actually love their jobs.
I just looked on github (where I have 4 passkeys registered), and I noticed that the bitwarden one has a little "Synced" flag next to it. The tooltip says "This passkey is eligable for backup by its provider", so sites can distinguish between exportable ones and non-exportable ones.
This is a fair and, as far as I can tell, accurate response. There's a huge difference between new runner strategy and optimized runner strategy. Any optimized fitness/habit plan should be just complex enough that you will maintain it, and that's different for everyone.

Another way to look at this: "ideal" has different definitions depending on whether it's maintainable for any given individual, as well as a definition for "what's the best way to do this if you take willpower out of the equation?"
