Exhibit A on why I looooove movie screenings

Imaging seeing a bunch of quirky short film misses from amateur producers that at least take initiative, to seeing Akira. in the early 90s. an advanced style in a medium nobody had really explored with a cohesive well thought out message. And you’re like “and this story and director came out of where? Japan?”

today that would share similarities to the idea of something wholly unexpected in the entertainment world came out of Iraq, but without any fanfare just an exhibit at a small industry event in your town

> This isn't a question of 1937 versus 1939

You have decided this 2 years difference allows you to entirely dismiss the significance of this being the first retaliation after centuries of Arab attacks. I don't blame you. I wouldn't address it either if I were you. That it was in 1937 vs 1939 still entirely undermines your central thesis that Israelis are pure, unadulterated evil and Palestinians are their innocent victims. Why are you like this?

It's also interesting how they protested against nuclear for many decades but not against coal or gas, especially the one coming from Russia.

It's as if they're fueled by ideology and not reality.

Edit: yes I know they also protested against coal mining last year with that wizard, but had they kept and invested in nuclear they wouldn't have needed to revert to coal

I'm working on upping my production capacity with the help of a professional bottling facility and private chef, so sometimes stuff is sold out when people want to buy it. I'm also developing a D2C platform to sell to people who want delivery, but that's a few steps ahead of me right now.
Downloading lists of addresses sounds too close to reselling Google Places data which would be against their terms-of-service. I deal a lot with geographic data and data licensing, Google Maps/Places is pretty strict. Maybe FourSquare, Yelp or other brokers allow reselling. Maybe you get around by only selling access to a too where the user assumed the legal responsibilty of download data but I wouldn't build a business around the data source.

"you must not pre-fetch, index, store, or cache any Content except under the limited conditions stated in the terms." (https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-...) The limited conditions are basically to only display the result on a Google Map (not even other map providers are allowed).

If an emergency happens with my parents, they're going to CALL ME. And the fact that I won't know about it if I happen to be in the shower or down the hall doing laundry or working outside for a few minutes is absurd and stupid.

> Self diagnosis is not reliable

Professional diagnosis is not reliable either. ADHD and autism are often misdiagnosed as one-another, especially in girls.

> If you don't have an official diagnosis you can't be certain you really have ADHD

A lot of the time, the mental health professional making the determination doesn't have specialty in ADHD/Autism. All they're doing is looking at symptoms and making their best guess. Which is exactly what people are doing when they make a self-determination. In many cases, people with high-functioning autism know more about autism than the people who are supposed to know. And it's not like the diagnoses can be validated when we're still figuring out what autism even is.

Just so we're all clear, no one has any idea how life could have emerged on Earth without external help.

It's a long way from amino acids to life -- like the distance between the squiggles that make up the letters of the alphabet and Milton's Paradise Lost.

I mean, why not just declare Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen to be "precursors for life" and then declare "the ingredients were already there!"

> so in some sense they are the are same object.

My understanding is that this is only the case if they’re isomorphic—even a pair of homomorphisms between the objects is not itself sufficient to identify them as the same. But I also don’t know any category theory, so I might be spouting nonsense :-)
When everyone is individualized and alienated from each other, you wind up with a deep emptiness in a population looking for community and organization to fill the void. This is exactly the methodology Stalin and Hitler took to get people on board with totalitarianism. People are fundamentally social animals who need community and social structures, and making everyone into an individual creates instability and allows for sociopaths to rise to power to fill those gaps.

I suggest reading the book The Origins of Totalitarianism by Hannah Arendt.
Yeah I get that point of the UX. Since almost all PKMS out there have their own way of handling info and all need like a manual or tutorial to understand how the tool works.

That's like the intelligent design argument. If life couldn't form on Earth without external help, how did it form anywhere else without external help? It makes no sense.

Turns out we do have an idea: Amino acids, nucleotides, and lipids have all been experimentally shown to spontaneously form and assemble in extreme environments. They were forming and bubbling around before the oceans even stopped boiling. After hundreds of millions if not billions of years of bumping around, they finally assembled into something that could self replicate an encapsulated cell and life took off.

It's a lot more plausible the same way that general relativity is more plausible than Ptolemiac astrophysics.

No worries! (It would be quite reasonable to think that we hit this a lot in development; I just wanted to clarify it for anyone who came by the thread.) And it does sound pretty off the wall to anyone who might not understand the context of Hubris, but (to bring it back on topic with Unix terms), I would liken REPLY_FAULT to SIGSYS, which would be seen under similar terms (i.e., grievously incorrect application) and has the same disposition (i.e., core dump).

To be fair, those rural communities were largely self-sufficient. You didn't need a car to drive into the city to do anything. You could do everything right at home. This kept the community fairly tight-knit.

In fact, with respect to the topic of third places, I was recently looking at an old township map of where my family's farm is located from the 1800s. What really stood out was that there was a church found approximately every mile.

A little surprising by today's standards, but stands to reason when you think about it. I mean, what else were those people going to do? There wasn't much else to do other than socialize with your closest neighbours, providing sufficient concentration for a third place to emerge. Now imagine putting some kind of social centre every mile in those suburbs today. I don't see it working out too well.
Yea, and at the Plank's scale resolution as a logical extension of the nanoscale with their "modern" measurement methodology this cheap monkey headset just disintegrates, haha.

As someone from Arizona I learned relatively late in life that ~15F is when my nose hairs start to freeze.
So there is a clear result found and then post hoc there is an explanation made for why this makes sense. That's a bit of a red flag since you preferably hypothesize first, but let's look at the analysis. If I'm not mistaken, then these are the most important parts:

- 467 measured metabolites (features)

- 136 males and 69 females = 205 (data points)

- "To minimize overfitting, only correlations with q values < 0.05 were tallied."

Then the predictive performance in Fig. 3 looks very promising with a 0.88 AUC score. However, according to the methods: "Classifiers of 4–7 metabolites were selected and tested for diagnostic accuracy using area under the receiver operator characteristic curve and random forest analysis."

Then, those AUC scores do not provide so much value since they first used the data to select the best features and then used the same data to fit the model on the best features.

It also looks a bit like the authors have thrown the kitchen sink at these 200 samples since I see R, GraphPad Prism, Python, CIRCOS, Cytoscape, and MetaboAnalyst being used.

And the statement "Fifty (50) random samples at each subsample size were taken to estimate the population statistics based on the central limit theorem." is a bit weird because the central limit theorem shows up throughout many analyses including confidence intervals.

So all in all I'm not 100% sure, but I am skeptical. Anyone here who knows more about "Metabolic network and hub-and-spoke analysis" or "network growth" analysis? Or why it is reasonable to use so many metrics instead of being more selective?
Using also no longer requires inheritance from IDispose, it suffices that the type does support Dispose pattern, which is great when coupled with extension methods.

There's quite a number of different theories for how life could've emerged on Earth.

Currently most popular, as I understand it, is the hydrothermal vent hypothesis, which uses the energy gradient provided by the heat from underwater hydrothermal vents as the motive power for the kind of self-assembly required and uses things like RNA, which still today creates its own transcriptive mechanism as well as several other utility enzymes, but the basic requirement is an energy gradient - beyond that, an awful lot of the chemical precursors to life seem to be self-assembling in the right conditions.

Now, if you want to argue about where exactly that transitions from self-propagating chemistry to actual Life occurs, that's a question for the philosophers - things get a bit muddy at that scale, but mechanistically, I'm not aware of a "missing link" in the early story of life.
In practice the lines of each issue are placed very close together. Other than Rust, there are no popular memory safe languages that use manual memory management.
I think that there is something else happening. We as a society don't really recognize industrial design. Some Youtube channels like 'Technology Connections' does.

Perhaps in the future we'll spend more time recognizing the mastery of craft that industrial designers put into creating household lamps and such. Especially since the history is pilling up and ready to be mined for interesting content.

You've made effectively the same argument used against white students who went into the Deep South US in the 1960s to help the civil rights movement.

While those white students benefited from being raised in a segregationist culture - it gave them the time, money, and freedom to protest segregation - those benefits don't justify continued segregation.
