I have a positive antigen test for celiac disease (I had 2 elevated antigens actually, both associated with celiac disease). The gastroenterologist told me I have celiac disease. Yet I've never experienced symptoms.

I stopped eating gluten and the associated antigens went down to normal levels. I don't feel any better or worse though.

The literature says there are false positives, and I've always wondered if might be one of them. I've searched celiac forums and I've never encountered anyone with a false positives diagnosis. Lots of false negatives or non-celiac gluten sensitivities though.

I do have the gene required for celiac disease, but most who have this gene do not have celiac disease.
The issue of accounts being banned after a password change is quite common, especially outside of China. This isn't related to the content of the new password.

Additionally, it's unlikely that the protocol has government-mandated vulnerabilities, as such weaknesses could potentially allow foreign governments to spy on WeChat users that are abroad. The Chinese government doesn't need such weaknesses, as they have access to the servers.
"Boring" cesium atomic clocks can do 50 ps per day with the best cutting edge optical clocks coming in at ~739 fs per day. Optical clocks would only need to resynchronize once every ~ 135 days while cesium clocks would need to do it every 2 days to get 0.1ns of accuracy.

I think the bigger challenge may be how you would transport the clocks after synchronization to maintain it across astronomical distances since they're very sensitive to any kind of acceleration. Since you have to regularly re-synchronize them in space anyway, that feels like the engineering problem you'd have to solve - how do you synchronize two atomic; the current record is synchronizing to within 0.32fs at a distance of 300km [1].

That's not a tax. That's just a payment they make for goods and services (in this case, ad services).

> [...] the consumer, end up footing the bill for; a dollar that does not go towards improving the product you receive in any way whatsoever.

Huh? You could make the same argument against providing free coffee for employees. Every dollar the company spends on coffee is one that they didn't spend on anything else..

And, obviously, ads go towards improving the improving the product I receive: without ads, I might have bought a different product or none at all.

Not all ad spend improves my experience, obviously, but neither does all spend on everything else. And I don't have to buy a product, if I don't like the ads.

Important precision: the async part is absolutely not python specific, but comes from CUDA, indeed for performance, and you will have to use cuda events too in C++ to properly time it.

For ONNX the runtimes I know of are synchronous as we don't do each operation individually but whole models at once, there is no need for async, the timings should be correct.

Any sources for that? From all the studies (and anecdotes) I've seen, MNCs are vastly more competent that most local companies, and the latter are also _usually_ still more competent than government.

That is strange. I have had a Kindle for years (probably around a decade), upgrading mutliple times. I am using a Paperwhite Signature for the past year or so and I have not experienced this with any books. I have probably 70% Amazon purchased books, but that still leaves a decent amount of side-loaded books (mostly epub).

The only annoying thing I experience is that the cover art will unload on the side-loaded books where you just get the generic cover with the text of the book. But once you click the book it loads the artwork, which seems to last a few days before quickly going back to the generic cover. But the book itself never leaves the device. I can't say I have experienced this ever (except for once, mentioned below) and I have over 150 books on my 32Gb device.

Just some random thoughts I am wondering:

- Is it an ads-supported model (mine isn't)

- Are the books in a broken-DRM .mobi? Not judging, i've done it too, just curious if Amazon has some sort of "signature" in mobis that allow it to detect a book that had DRM removed?

- Are they standard .epub?

- What is the size of the device? (Maybe smaller 8Gb devices will clean up and prioritize non-Kindle content to make way for "official content)

- Which device is it? (Scribe, Oasis, Paperwhite, older paperwhite, etc)

The one time I had it deleting my book was a large book (it was 400Mb) and it was on an older 8Gb paperwhite. I still had PLENTY of storage space available (I was using around 4Gb) but it kept deleting that book. This was the only time I have seen it happen and it was with this one specific book. That was many years ago and I haven't seen it since. That book was a DRM-removed book I got through "shared" means. Which has led me to question if the Kindle removes it because it could detect that the DRM had been removed or because of its large size. But this was a one-off experience for me. The book was readable by the device. It would download for several weeks at a time before being removed. You could redownload it and it would work for weeks again before dissapearing. I never could figure it out.

I've used both C and Pascal. The simplicity of C comes through to me (less so Pascal - the verbosity gets in the way). I never thought of it as "as natural as a branch of mathematics", though.

I mean... I guess you could think of it as having its own set of self-consistent axioms, and from them you can build things. It's a lot larger set of axioms than most branches of mathematics, though.

I guess, if Hofstadter meant the same level of naturalness, well, yes, C did feel pretty natural to me, so... maybe?

Roads should be privately provided: they aren't even a public good.

> OpenTimestamps alone can not currently prove anything because TLS session keys are symmetric.

Timestamps can prove that the data existed prior to there being a known reason to modify it. While that's not as good as direct signing, that's often still enough to be very useful. The statement that OTS "can not currently prove anything" is incorrect.

A really good example of this is the Hunter Biden email verification. I used OpenTimestamps to prove that the DKIM key that signed the email was in fact used by Google at the time, by providing a Google-signed email that had been timestamped years ago: https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/hunter-dkim/tree/main/o...

That's convincing evidence, because it's highly implausible that I would have been working to fake Hunter's emails years before they even came up as an election issue.

They haven't lost their funding from Google yet, and the case ruling was only what? a week ago? Did you expect them to see into the future and predict this turn of events or something? I imagine they're very busy talking about this stuff right now, but 6 months ago they probably weren't too worried about suddenly losing their Google funding because of government action.
Just as a counterpoint to your anecdote, I actually took a course of antibiotics for a week a few months ago and my stomach issues went away completely. Then they came back when I stopped :(

Probiotics didn't help either. Even the refrigerated ones.

Then I started drinking a half cup of unflavoured gelatin before each meal. Take half a tablespoon of the powdered gelatin, mix with half cup water, wait two minutes to dissolve a bit, down the hatch. It's helped like 75% of the way there.

Also, I started taking anxiety meds because my stomach issues get more triggered when I go out and it's early days but that may help.
Similarly, I saw someome on social media yesterday post about buying "Monopoly Go" boardgame at the store. The box says "Based on the popular mobile game".

Even the Webgl signature check is resilient, and is the new tracking cookie on many sites like YT etc. It is a robust unique property of a specific system, and GPU. Not just the serial number...

Indeed, duplicate salted-hash signatures on multiple active users mean shills, and immediate bans issued for both accounts tainted by the black list.

The trick is to randomize a mix of easy and difficult signature checks daily.

i.e. the exploit writers will have to spend time cleaning up bugs, redistributing the patches, and dealing with angry people that have a GPU that is on the blacklist for a game. The more hardware details collected, the more difficult it is to prevent tripping the admin alert.

This is already done by some studios... "Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes" as they say... =3
I couldn't sleep on planes my entire life until one year I did Europe-Korea 8 times and it became so routine it started working.

The routine part, I think, is what took the "I won't sleep on this long flight" anxiety away somehow, because I started learning the rhythm of the flight. For example, there is no point to try and sleep until the initial meal is served, you'll just get woken up anyway. So now I just spend that time thinking and daydreaming and being bored, then I quietly eat my meal but stop at feeling overly fully, and by the time it's over I start to get tired.

I also realized that a sleeping mask is a great aid for me (on the other hand, I don't need earplugs/earphones). This came as a great surprise, as I don't typically need darkness to sleep well, but something about the sensory deprivation in the plane setting seems to do the trick.

What I'm saying is, I used to describe myself as the "I don't sleep on planes" guy for a good decade, but then it started working; don't give up yet.

BTW, to give this a software dimension: I was recently on a flight with an airline I hadn't used before, and I really liked a UI in their in-flight infotainment that showed the entire flight as a timeline with all meaningful events penciled in (when the meals are, etc.) and a recommendation during which blocks to sleep. That was really nice and thoughtful.

Thanks for the feedback. What you've encountered is a type error— basically a programming language's compiler telling you that your code is invalid. It's not a bug per-se, although sometimes it is caused by our nodes not being as general as they should be. We just fixed an issue where the Stroke and Fill nodes only applied to vector data but didn't apply to group data (where the group contained one or more vector data). Those kinds of problems, when sensible, should probably get issues filed against them.

The red error message does tell you where to look:

> Check for error details in the node graph, which can be
> opened with the viewport's top right _Node Graph_ button.

So in the top right of the viewport, and it's the button labeled "Node Graph". Is it possible your window was very small and the button got scrolled out of the way by other buttons? I'm open to feedback about how you may suggest improving the text of that message. It would currently be hard to make that dialog more visual or interactive, unfortunately, but that'll be something worth building towards improving in the future with improved diagonstics all around.

Britain used to have "Ordinary level" (O levels) at age ~16 and "Advanced level" exams (A levels) at ~18. Students usually studied 5-8 O levels and then either left school to pursue a career or went on to study (usually) 3 A levels and go to university.

O levels got replaced back in the 80's. A levels never got renamed.

Egregious? The policy is literally "free returns". In my experience, they could cut it down a lot by not constantly playing pricing games and also getting rid of their slow spiteful shipping. Like if I'm in the market for a type of thing, and they have one of their sale days where two or three options are all 30% off, I'll order a few options and then decide later. Or if I'm in the middle of project I'll order extra parts that I merely might need so that I don't get interrupted waiting for another shipping round (especially if I don't currently have a "trial" of their sunk cost fallacy program). If I already have to do an Amazon return sometime, then taking more items is basically free. I know their system is wasteful as fuck, but that's on them for setting up such terrible policies. I'm certainly not going to validate the business model of letting companies cheat customers based on making us feel bad about how much they waste. (all the repeatedly damaged items from Target having no clue how how to pack items is another example that spelled out this larger dynamic for me. at least Target lets you keep the salvage much of the time)
If you have a military enemy that blatantly hides itself within civilian areas and builds its underground infrastructure underneath civilian infrastructure, and that military enemy kills 1200 of your citizens in an attack, that creates a fair bit of moral ambiguity.
I had the same perspective. This seemed more like a running "who was bombed today" news feed. Those events are important and meaningful, but it's not something I would come back to frequently as I have found it is not healthy for me to bombard myself with sad news which is outside of my sphere of influence.

I do like the simplicity and interface, however.

I agree. The better answer from my view is to handle passkeys like passwords and manage them the same way.
Israel's two largest borders are with Egypt and Jordan, both of which it has shared peaceful relations with for decades. It shares a complicated border with Syria, where it has for more decades held a salient into Syrian sovereign territory (the Golan), but until recently there has been little military activity involving it. It's the Lebanese border where all the action is at.
Good question! IMHO, it's a spectrum, of course, not a binary concept.

But if we have to define a criteria... I guess, integrated just enough so it can't be trivially removed, making it more of a "body part" rather than a "tool".

Point is, it'll certainly spark a discussion and re-evaluation of what's "fair", potentially shifting the consensus from somewhere around the current "glasses are fair game, but a programmable mouse is not" to somewhere more accepting of differently-abed individuals.
I don't think the Biden administration gets enough credit for its very consistent pro-consumer and anti-monopoly stance. It's not a top-of-mind issue to most voters, as it's something most people only think about when they're annoyed, but I think aggressive enforcement in these areas is ultimately much better for the economy than the free-for-all scam ethos offered by the MAGA candidate.
Isn’t that escaping too? You could be engaged in the real world forming real connections but instead have self isolated.

Probably the point is that there are many mindstates to be in and maybe we should just let folks do their thing.
I get the joke, but color has been present in books (manuscripts, before the invention of the printing press, even) basically since their inception, many centuries ago, so just adding color wouldn't make these devices more similar to screens as much as it would make them more akin to... well, books.

> You are "forced to pay taxes" to have schools and roads and rescue services and law and everything else that makes the United States still a mostly habitable place to live.

I don't live in the US, and don't pay taxes for that. Most of the things you mention aren't even public goods. (See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_good_(economics))

In any case, I grew up in Germany and have adopted Singapore as my home. And in comparison I am very happy that my overall tax rates here are perhaps a third of what they would be in Germany, while the services provided here are at least three times as good. (But the latter is subjective.)

Not incidentally, Singapore is perhaps the most well run city on the globe, and the place most run like an MNC.
