It does feel like every organ system and every disease has at least one research group trying to connect it to the microbiome. It's reminiscent of the hype cycle around oxidative stress and antioxidants 20 uears ago. There was a core of solid science there, but in terms of connecting specific diseases to oxidative stress, it seems like the research community has largely moved on.
One of the first things I did after getting my driving license was fly to Lisbon and rent a car there. At the time, you left the airport by merging onto a four lane roundabout with essentially no lane markings with people driving like maniacs and 5 or so exits for different highway directions. At the end of that vacation, I was driving a lot more confidently. But I wouldn't recommend that Darwinist approach to learning how to drive in the real world.

When done properly, multi lane roundabouts can be quite efficient. They are common in Europe as an alternative to just having a lot of traffic lights at any junction. Some of the bigger ones can also have traffic lights.

A good guideline is that if you need to go 3 quarters around, you probably want to be in the left most lane when you enter and move right as you progress. In case of doubt, just go around a second time. If you are too far right, merging left is something you want to be careful with and not necessarily legal in some places. But it's not that different from sorting into the wrong lane for a crossing. You kind of commit to where you exit before you enter. Usually the signage should help.

The most annoying thing about roundabouts is the navigation endlessly going "At the roundabout take the second exit" (i.e. go straight on), which gets really annoying if you are on the ring road of some city that has roundabouts every few hundred meters. Which accurately describes a lot of smaller cities across Europe these days. Safe and efficient. But also tedious. If in the Netherlands, beware of your right hand dead angle and be on the lookout for scooters, e-bikes, etc. when you exit a roundabout. You are supposed to yield to them and they can really come out of nowhere.
I generally prefer a well-designed roundabout when either cycling or walking, but I see how they can be non-ideal when done improperly.

KQL has some good things, pipes is one of them I think.
To be fair, most of the gridlocked traffic is caused by drivers not understanding that they shouldn't enter a yellow box junction until their exit is clear and similarly, they shouldn't be nosing out onto a roundabout when their lane is already full - that's what tends to cause the issues.

Some systems in the past exposed the ability to directly generate microprograms, but these days it does not really provide much benefit, especially given how different chips can be that you run on.
We love a good roundabout in the UK, however it can be taken to extremes. The Magic Roundabout[1] in Hemel Hempstead is basically a roundabout made up of 6 mini-roundabouts. When it was first built locals used to sit in the middle watching the crashes.

Strong disagree, a well designed roundabout is both safer and faster for both pedestrians and cyclists. See this roundabout [0] from Delft, Netherlands for a good example. Pedestrians have right of way over everyone, then cyclists, and lastly there's a set of traffic lights to give trams and buses right of way when they come by. Cars come last and traffic flows smoothly and safely.

I was going to make the same point. With that slight modification it's an everyday thing for many U.K. drivers and fairly easy to navigate when one is used to such.

Most of the good ones will tag themselves in the user agent and follow robots.txt.

The ones that don't are the ones people are trying to block the most. Sometimes Google or Bing go crazy and start scraping the same resource over and over again, but most scraping tools causing load peaks are the badly written/badly configured/malicious ones.

That’s a dealbreaker in many situations.
I worked for a short time on SearchGPT, and I can tell you OpenAI does respect robots.txt , at least when I was there and does now. They are also careful to shard per domain and only crawl each domain at a small rate (~1 qps) as to not ddos the site. OpenAI also uses User Agent strings to identify itself: https://platform.openai.com/docs/bots

They have dedicated user agents for search crawling, when a user directly asks about a site and for training data.

> However don't you fear to get to a kind of CMake state with a "old" and "new" way to get things done being both available for the sake of backwards compatibility becoming quite a mess ?

Right now there is support for dynamic configuration through commands executed through a script at startup (like bspwmrc etc), and declarative configuration through a static file which can be hot-reloaded.

Basically all new features and documentation are declarative-first, and there is a command that can generate a declarative configuration file from a running instance configured using a dynamic configuration script.

So if you're new to the project, you probably don't even know that the older configuration method is a thing, and if you come back to the project with a very old dynamic config script after a long time, everything you remember still just works, and you're just a command away from migrating to the format that everyone else is now using.

That being said, there is definitely a whole bunch of code that I would love to get rid of some day :)
I saw an asphalted road on the mountain ridge, along the E-3 hiking route, in a national reserve territory, with a EU funding sign saying that it was built "for the benefit of the local species".

The road leads to a chalet, and the only one who it benefits is the chalet's owner, making it easier for his drunkard customers to drive right to it on the weekends, with zero walking involved.
This really is the big failure mode of roundabouts, it essentially becomes "live-locked"

What's your point? If you disable all remote and interactive stuff you get a fast page render? That's exactly what i criticize here. The page should be considered loaded when all is fetched and usable. And not "loaded" when the main parts from his server are transferred.

But yes, the Disqus takes the longest loading time starting at 4s. Scripts start at around 1 second to load. So yeah, you COULD argue the page is loaded after 1 second, but the point is, that it is not _RENDERED_ and functional and not all parts have been fetched yet.

Ofc your mileage may vary, i don't block disqus but use uBlock and the page is most likely hosted on another continent which makes latency another issue.

To make things fair i took to https://tools.pingdom.com/ and selected american and german servers respectively, which show 140ms for my page (Frankfurt) and still 800ms for his (from NA) which i think is mostly due to the use of http1.1. and ignores all remotely added scripts and tracking.

I'm not sure what your point is as roads become invisible when it snows. Is there something unique about a mini roundabout versus any other road markings? It's almost as though you're implying that drivers will speed towards a multi-road junction when it's snowing and not bother to slow down, despite the signage.
This is not a part of any of the official upcoming Wi-Fi standards/specs, unlike how the title of the article makes it seem.
I do write JavaScript by hand directly for the browser to consume. I am no web developer though and I dislike the toolchain that webpacks my imaginary TypeScript project.

To me a scripting language immediately loses its best features. I understand why large JS projects get implemented in TypeScript. I do visualization for the browser and don't need it and frankly, most sites I see wouldn't need it either.

The most complicated JS code is some shitty advertiser tracking anyway.

But with a toolchain like that, I don't see why you wouldn't want to compile a program if you have all the drawbacks anyway.
I've been trying to come up with a similar pattern in TS many times but I think you cannot do this due to the lack of moves (bindings do alias, pass by reference).

But TS has so many dark magical patterns that I'm still hoping to be proven wrong.

It's a nice sounding quip, but I don't agree at all. The pilot putting themselves in risky situations will acquire a superior skill. Which will partially, but not nearly fully, compensate for the risky situations they put themselves in.

It probably is, with purges (including backups) happening a few months later. Otherwise they're setting themselves up for fraud lawsuits (see also: the recent incognito browsing lawsuit which arguably has less merit than a straightforward "we told you we'd delete it but didn't").

> and they have to provide all data they capture to intelligence agencies.

1. Source?

2. If your threat model is intelligence agencies operating extrajudicially, you probably shouldn't be trusting googles delete functionality at all. At the very least they can pull up a copy that they captured before you deleted it from google?
I get the "everyone knows what was meant" approach... but not everyone knows.
Awk is meant for short scripts (often one liners) that get some piped input. A JS program could be used in that manner, but I'd guess it'd be more like an exception than the norm. Different tools for different needs.
Total nonsense, there are no studies that link colic to formula feeding. Some newborns have digestive problems with formula; some newborns have digestive problems with breast milk. Formula digestive problems can sometimes be helped by switching to a different formulation, while breast milk digestive problems can sometimes be helped by changing the diet of the breastfeeding parent.

And there are sources of colic that have nothing to do with digestion - a quick perusal of WebMD lists noise/light sensitivity, nervous system misfires, and baby migraines (poor babies)!

Colic certainly might be an indicator that something is not quite right, but that doesn't mean there's always something you can do about it. As I write this with my exhausted newborn son sleeping in my arms, sometimes you just have to wait for them to grow out of it.

EDIT: I looked into this a little more since I'm pinned by a sleepy baby and as with everything with babies it's complicated. Here's a study that shows that formula-fed babies cry more at 2 weeks than breast-fed babies, but less at 6 weeks: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10193923/

This is probably also hindered by the fact that "colic" is an imprecise term - all babies cry, but at a certain point if they cry enough you call it "colic".
When I was 10ish I helped a couple in a bookstore pick out a book for the their nephew. The husband liked me and bought me a copy of his favorite book from when he was my age: The Time Machine. It kicked off a lifelong passion for speculative fiction that I still read now 30ish years later.
Hello! I’m the maintainer of the Gleam OTP library. It is not abandoned or an afterthought.
The advantages of a language like Rust where most interactions are blocked on either user input or network IO are fairly limited. Rust shines when things are CPU or memory bound primarily. Web applications are mostly IO bound. Which is why people have been getting away with fairly poorly optimized interpreted languages for decades. Even when computers were a lot slower than they are today, this worked fairly well.
If you were a nonprofit medical service or a for-profit insurance company, you could do AI analysis of gut microbiome eDNA against electronic health records with potential for significant value if you could get a stool sample every so often.

The reasons listed in the article are spot on. Ridiculously high repair costs is enough. With ridiculously high repair costs come extended repair times (rental car and claims management). There comes a point where just increasing the premium price can't offset risk.

No one is forcing people to use a bank, it’s just the “easy default”. Related: quoting from “Ditch Banks — Go With Money Market Funds and Treasuries”⁽¹⁾

”Many people don’t realize that there’s a fundamental difference between the roles banks and brokers play. The fundamental difference is that banks and credit unions offer a two-party private contract while a broker serves as an intermediary between you and the public market. … When you have a two-party private contract, your interest is in direct conflict with the other party in the contract. … A broker acts as an intermediary. They get you the market rate and take a cut. A broker doesn’t set the rate. The market does. The broker only sets its cut.”

Punitive measures.

Narrow tariffs, competitive subsidies, sanctions, divestment, export restrictions are all viable deterrents.

Aside from this behavior, China has been subsidizing industries and dumping products into economic rivals for years. Never mind all the IP theft. It’s absurd the US has responded so weakly for the last 30 years.
It is not abandoned, I am the maintainer. The documentation covers the APIs of the package but not the “zen” of the wider OTP framework, for that the official OTP documentation and existing books are recommended.

> Could you say something about the cases where you did need to write Erlang code?

Sure! For one of my most used packages (https://github.com/giacomocavalieri/birdie) I needed to get the terminal width to display a nice output, that has to be implemented using FFI based on the specific runtime (erlang or js) so I had to write it in Erlang, that was just a couple of lines of code.

But now there's a Gleam package to do it, so if I were to rewrite it today I wouldn't even need to write Erlang for that and could just use that!

> What kind of cases?

Usually it is when you need some functionality that has to rely on specific things from the runtime (like IO operations, actors on the BEAM, async on the JS target, ...) and there's no package to do it already.
Most of the common things (like file system operations and such) are already covered

> Were you already proficient in Erlang and its ecosystem?

Not at all :) I knew very little about Erlang (basically nothing behind the syntax), Gleam was my introduction to the BEAM ecosystem and it has worked out great so far!

Hope this is helpful, happy to share my experience here
> in terms of connecting specific diseases to oxidative stress, it seems like the research community has largely moved on.

As someone who knows someone at UNC Chapel Hill who was researching this starting about 15 years ago, the research community did not move on, the news just stopped talking/hyping about it.

Here is a recent paper:
Oxidative stress: The core pathogenesis and mechanism of Alzheimer's disease

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35395415/

It is fundamentally true that oxidative balance is crucial to health, and that nutrients play a large role in maintaining that balance; Manganese (SOD2) zinc/copper (SOD1/SOD3), Selenium/Riboflavin/Pyridoxine (Glutathione).

Deficiencies will not cause one disease, but many different ones, depending on the persons risk.

I think oxidative balance plays a large role in controlling the microbiome.

Nutrition, oxidative stress and intestinal dysbiosis: Influence of diet on gut microbiota in inflammatory bowel diseases

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35395415/
This right here.

Consider it a opportunity to learn from other people going through their own struggles and try your best to make the time they spend with you a highlight of their day.
Looks like they are using molecular methods on post-mortem brains - all sorts of bugs can grow post-mortem and molecular methods can give false-positives as well as detect non-viable microbes, etc. But that's also based on a quick skim / haven't read the full paper yet.

Culturing from CSF in general will depend on the concentration of the microbe, whether they are viable, if antibiotics/antivirals were already initiated pre-collection, whether it's plated on the appropriate media (e.g. a rare microbe that only grows on one specific type of agar plate), etc. Culturing viruses is also hard/many hospital micro labs have moved away from that.

I think this study may suggest that we are failing to detect certain brain infections (and many are notoriously hard to diagnose if you don't catch them in the right window of time). But a brain microbiome sounds far-fetched. We even plate from brain tissue directly at times and aren't growing a bunch of organisms. I'd approach that claim with a healthy dose of skepticism.
I thought that that was the test, stuck here, help.
