Well, supported by Windows and MacOS. Linux only if you happen to use zfs or btrfs, and also only if the backup tool you use happens to rely on those snapshots.

Until Thunderbird added support for Exchange there was a slight hole on Linux (no FOSS mail solution with support for it) but right now I'd say everything works more or less out of the box. SPAM filtering and categorization could be a bit more automated, but in general I'd say everything is covered.

Mail server projects are a different story though. There's no simple way to create a fully fledged mail server without weeks of pain to configure spam, routing, calendars, security... there are some preconfigured images in all major cloud platforms, but nothing like `apt install mail-server` that pops out a simple config assistant in an already existing server.
Don't think the corvette is a good example on that front, look into MT stats for something like the MX-5.

> Findings from the study show that the deoxy ribose sugar is as effective at regrowing hair as Minoxidil - an existing drug used to treat hair loss

Minoxidil is barely effective, especially for something that became widely available. It got approved in the 80s as a topical version of a hypertension drug, and IIRC the McStudy that supported it was funded by the original patent holder.

I don't think anyone had much of a problem with it, as the market was previously 100% snake oil, and this sort of thing happens even with drugs for serious diseases. If you benefit from the placebo effect and stop stressing out about it, then maybe the drug really "works"?

Since the discovery in the article is pretty much a mirror of the story of Minoxidil, I would default to being skeptical of the claims.

The 5-alpha-reductase (5ar) inhibitors [1] like finasteride and dutasteride do work. The 5ar enzyme converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT.) Over time, DHT causes sensitive follicles to shrink further and further and the hair growth phase to get shorter and shorter, until it reaches zero. People whose skin is genetically less DHT-sensitive go bald later in life or not at all.

However, the inhibitors have systemic reach, and their long-term consequences are hard to study. It is (was?) believed that DHT is not practically useful in adults, but this was partly based on research on people who are 5ar-deficient due to a genetic mutation. They also have a less-than-pretty clinical picture [2] because they had no DHT when it mattered (in the womb) so the safety argument has always been rather tentative.

If you're balding, you should ask yourself how much it really matters to you. Are you willing to take a serious drug for decades, with less-than-well-understood systemic consequences? No one will really be able to answer your what-ifs.

Some people really stress out about it, and I'd say they are good candidates. But if you don't really care all that much, you're much better off letting Darwin take the wheel on this one.

You are going to say what the app is, right? right?
I use Migadu, mostly for people who just want a couple of domain emails when we host their site. It works good for that and I like the accessibility of the logging. Needs a user-accessible out of office I don't want users emailing me to be their personal assistant. I did try to use it for transactional type emails, sending forms from Wordpress or scanners etc but it wasn't so good for that because the emails were too spammy and the accounts kept getting deactivated. autodiscover was a bit hit and miss, nobody likes talking people through imap servers over the phone, but it seems a bit better now.

If you can’t quickly collect data for a principal view, the data structure is incorrect. This doesn’t solve your problem cause it’s usually unlikely that one can refactor a data problem on sight in a shipped app, but doesn’t make this case normal too. Most apps don’t need such partial loading optimization and shouldn’t be designed as such. Normalizing it creates a web full of never-ending spinners, which already is a plague.

1. For example I am part of this mailing list that is like 30 years old. And it feels sort of like a small niche social network. There is alot of improvement that needs to be done in this space.

2. Alias generation. I really would like to subscribe to some news letters or place my email out in public but I don't want to do it with my real email for fear of being spammed.

3. Cataloguing & curating emails. It would be really nice if I could book mark different messages into different folders.

4. Read receipts. All email hosts claim to have this feature but I have actually failed to use them for every single service I am signed up to.

5. Make it easy to configure custom domain names.

6. Tagging doesn't work on Gmail's mobile app. It's so badly implemented on other services.

7. Have a good API why do I have to go to sendgrid?

I assume you meant VB-Audio's "Voicemeeter"? If so, yeah, that's solid software, and it's NUTS that Windows hasn't made it unnecessary yet.

(For those who may be reading this comment and wondering what the shit this software is, go give it a look. (I use it regularly and don't do Pro Audio stuff... I just want to be able to independently adjust relative volumes of groups of software (like Voice Chat and Video Games).) If the software's feature set looks intriguing, do give it a try and use Voicemeeter Potato. IIRC, all "flavors" of Voicemeeter have the same trial period, and I can't think of any reason to not use the the "flavor" with the most knobs and interconnects.)

Could it be that we have higher expectations today? (housing quality, technology access, not cooking ourselves, etc).

Part of it could also be that today, like it or not, you're increasing competing in a global market. And the best leverage you can find is having a long education.

I'm a little confused about the point-in-time restore functionality, I'm pretty sure there must be a way to not have to force those one minute WAL boundaries. DigitalOceans managed PostgreSQL for instance just allows you to specify a timestamp and restore, and when looking into the PostgreSQL docs I remember seeing an option to specify a timestamp as well.
I particularly agree with the second point. Having enough hours is absolutely necessary to grow into a pro. And the number of hours spent is a non linear function, in two perspectives, from my observation:

First, spending 10 1-hour session produces way less pro-ness than spending 1 10-hour session. Every programmer who attempts a difficult (pro) project can probably attest to this.

Second, not all X hours/days produce the same pro-ness. People have plateaus that seem to stuck somewhere. But you need those plateau X hours/days too. I have a theory that one can avoid as much plateau as possible by always challenging oneself with an almost impossible -- yet still doable project. But it's difficult to get right, so a lot of people get a very long plateau, or burnout, and then quit.

PS: So eventually, anyone who is serious about a career must spend his hours efficiently on high quality (aligned to the career path, while challenging, but not impossible) projects.

PS2: The freedom to spend one's time is absolutely important. Marriage and children could bring havoc to this freedom so people should think carefully before treading into the water.
I believe I do, though I'm not certain. I have whatever is built into my Asus motherboard, which seems like it is ultimately a Realtek chip. Not sure though.

Exactly. Lightning minimizes the use of the globally consistent ledger, which inevitably has to make trade-offs due to the "trilemma".

You set aside some funds on the global ledger and then you can use those funds to transact in a much more efficient, truly p2p manner, without touching the global ledger. Eventually, you net out everything and settle it all at once on-chain, utilizing its features to resolve any conflicts.

We should just drop all other time zones and use UTC
I don't think they missed this - the website does include those findings.
But there is no point in time without a location and I think this is the point of the article. The quirk is that the offset to UTC might not be static because of timezone changes, and saving UTC doesn't capture that.
I'm sorry you missed the point.

Work more in the busy months, less in the quieter months, it all evens out over the year so the company pays the same in the end, without paying extra for the busy months.

The most annoying case is when an event is already scheduled, and the timezone then changes. E.g. it is decided that from now on, DST will end a week later.

What to do with the events that were scheduled in that week before this change was known? One assumption is that the intent was to schedule it at the same time during the business day (the 9 o'clock meeting, lunch is at 12 etc.); but then you would've been better off storing local time with a location rather than even a timezone, as the (lack of) S in the timezone might not have been intentional.

I'm not saying you shouldn't use UTC though, I'm saying daylight savings is ludicrous and should be gotten rid off.

Ugh...the tax shit in the US is so annoying. At least your e-commerce system is meant for a single kind of transaction, I worked on a more multi-purpose system (that was also open-sourced! https://github.com/workarea-commerce/workarea) that handled everything from physical items to buy online pickup in store to digital items to subscriptions. It was a LOT of work getting that tax system in order! We usually recommended our clients work with a company like Avalara or TaxJar (which is now just Stripe) so they wouldn't need to take on the burden of taxes, but a lot of folks didn't and just used our stuff. It got confusing lol...
> even eg scheduled video calls take place in physical places, so in practice future events of any kind are best stored in localtime with the relevant user’s timezone attached

I was in London when I scheduled a video call with someone in New York. When we actually took the call, I was in Spain and he was in Chicago.

I can’t think of any timezone that could have been attached to that meeting to make it useful at the time of creation. I absolutely expect my machine to be able to tell me what the local time of the meeting is when its timezone changes.
Meta risks sanctions over "sneaky" ad-free plans confusing users, EU says
If you take a high enough dose of estrogen, generally referred to as estrogen mono therapy, it will knock down your T levels. But high estrogen levels have some risks as well, and different doctors have different preferred approaches. My doctor is willing to do estrogen monotherapy, but I would have to switch from oral pills to injections as the higher dosages taken orally would be hard on the kidneys. Before switching to injections, I just wanted to see how finasteride worked for me. It is okay, but not perfect.

It is hard to tell if what I am experiencing is a side effect of the finasteride unrelated to my T levels, or it is due to some reduction in the effects of testosterone because of the mechanism of action of the finasteride. If it is the latter, switching to injections and doing monotherapy to lower my T could have the same effects. The fact of the matter is the penis functions better with testosterone in my system but testosterone also leads to hair loss, so trying to get both is somewhat of an imperfect balancing act.

But hey, I'm having the best sex of my life and the people I am attracted to think I am hot as hell so I don't mind a little experimentation to see what works best! Actually its super cool what we can do with a little hormonal alchemy.

I once implemented the backend of a calendar and resource control for a low code platform.

The control is highly customizable, with a lot of views to chose from, daily, monthly, yearly... but also resource views (you can book resources with custom groupings, by plugin, by the resource-ID, whatever...), define "plugins" on the data sources, what's the from- and to- columns, the title column, what's the resource (may be from a foreign key / 1:1 relationship or 1:N if it's from a "child" data source or from the same data source/table).

Furthermore I've implemented different appointment series, to chose from (monthly, weekly (which weekdays), daily...), which column values should be copied. Also appointment conflicts (or only conflicts if they book the same resource). You could also configure buffers before and after appointments where no other appointment can be.

That was a lot of fun and also challenge sometimes regarding time zones and summer/winter time in Europe and so on :-)
