The greatest misconception about exercise is this "if you're tired your best course of action would be to abstain from the thing that will make you more tired" train of thought. Exercise doesn't always work like this. Yes you'll have bad days, but you'll find yourself more energised most of the time and mentally more at peace. Thinking it will make you more tired can often be just a preconception.

It's like that classic sedentary worker ailment of the sore back. Many people take this as a sign to rest more, but these types of issues are often caused by weak musculature and the best thing to do is start resistance training. Obviously not a blanket solution, but one that definitely seems overlooked.
It’s a beautiful construction. It reminds me a bit of the “canonical” quicksort in Haskell [1].

Neither of these implementations is going to be displacing absl::btree_map or std::sort any time soon, but I do feel we have a lot of “room at the bottom” for making simple and elegant code practical on real machines.

GrapheneOS has a "reboot after x hours inactivity" feature specifically to prevent the scenario mentioned in the story. Otherwise leaving a phone powered on is a massive risk, especially if cops can keep it charged for months to wait for an exploit.
Isn’t it obvious that an animal that knows the sound of its prey (like a mouse scurrying or squeaking) can associate particular sounds with objects? Or as another example, I have a laser pointer that makes a sound when I switch it on. When my cats hear that sound, they instantly start scurrying around looking for the little dot of laser light to chase.
Cold weather creates the social and somatic conditions that increase the effective infectiousness of viruses.
I'm not sure if that's possible. What's the difference between that and someone sitting their phone on a metal cabinet?

I'm even more confident that Apple hasn't spent the research hours required to do that reliably, then incorporate the electronics and software needed into off-the-shelf phones, all to protect criminals from having their phones hacked under very specific conditions. That seems like a huge money sink.
> Slapping a pride flag on a jet engine isn't exactly a political bias, it's a marketing / reputation-washing gimmick.

Oat milk lattes and pride parades were your chosen example. Raytheon is there.

> You are implying that the Republican party is not also this.

In the Trump era they're not - the media/establishment has been firmly anti-Trump, and he's been loudly calling for scaling back overseas military activity.

> Voting or voter registration -- citation needed.

I mean the 70+ lawsuits are widely reported.

> Voter fraud is a criminal offense, the courts can do plenty.

Against an individual who voted fraudulently, if they can prove it was wilful and if they can even find the person, sure. Against an official who "forgot" to make a required check, or "accidentally" allowed someone to register past the deadline, or didn't manage to connect up a database that was supposed to be connected up? Very hard to prove anything, and hard to get past qualified immunity too.

> Or are you claiming that the irregularities only were irregular in the Democrats' favor, and that they lost in spite of committing widescale voter registration fraud?

No fraud of the sort that you'd find a smoking gun for - no-one directly lying, no orders to break the law in so many words. Just a bunch of procedural errors and mishaps, probably not even coordinated, that add up to nudge the vote a few tenths of a percentage point in one direction. Not enough to tip the balance when the margin is as big as it was this time around.

> as someone who has no clue what to expect from QNX

Apple doesn't have to explain on their homepage what they do. QNX, in some sectors, has been a very well-known brand for a few decades, which is probably why their marketing material is stuck in that mode.

The obvious fact though, as your comment demonstrates, they're now just another nobody.

I've had similar results with blood pressure, although a smaller weight loss (about 30 lbs) and smaller decrease. Another 10-20 pounds to go.

For what it's worth, I'm on a intermittent fast. I only eat between 5pm to 10pm, with no real restrictions on what I eat. I was surprised how quickly weight fell away, and how easy a diet it was to stick to. 'Eat after work' was a simple behavior to adapt to.

People are very individual, and this might not work for a lot of people, but it's doing great for me. I didn't want to spend the rest of my life on blood-pressure drugs.
Another option is that whatever bug cellebrite was exploiting to extract data from iPhones in AFU mode is now subtly not working, leading to unexpected reboots when attempting extraction.

If they do anything to Section 230, I assume it will be some kind of revision to handle the case of news feeds and page ranking algorithms, and potential fake users. If social media sites stopped manipulating content feeds and let things happen organically so far as provided by the First Amendment and relevant laws, no change would actually be needed. But if they want to assume a role analogous to Editor in Chief then they get to share the blame for what they push. That seems OK to me.
But is there a way to actually back up an installer (or the installed game) in a way that lets you run it on a different computer after, say, your Steam account has been closed for whatever reason?

On macOS an app bundle is usually self-contained, so if there is no DRM backups are simple enough; for Windows, it's usually not that easy, I believe.
Anecdotally, my cat's definitely know the word "Greenies" for their favorite treats.

Fairly recently, I was calling one who was napping to let her know I was about to dispense them. She woke up, lifted her head, perked her ears and watched me when I called her name. She was clearly paying attention but not moving from her spot. Then I said the magic word and the reaction was startlingly immediate - she leapt up and ran right to me, then followed until I got them out and poured some out.
>I have been allowed to consider myself a colleague (at best, ordinarily: an associate) by many cats - you do not get to be an owner of a cat: that's an affectation!

Yep, I found weight loss was pretty much the only thing that would drop my blood pressure. Though it didn't drop linearly like you're describing. From 215lb to 180lbs, it didn't really change much at all. Once I got down below 180lbs, it quickly dropped (from ~150/90 to ~120/80) and stayed there. When I slacked off my good eating habits and went back above 180lbs, blood pressure shot right back up to ~150/90. I'm back down again to about 172lbs and clearly get it now, I have to stay here.
This looks so awesome! Congrats on your launch. Eager to use it!

Yes, technically they are licensed. But what software is owned and not licensed? This is not new. Unlike most collections the ROMs here are out in open and easy to access.

The reviews here are complaining about Sega delisting the collection. People that already have it will still be able to play them and redownload them off Steam. They have already delisted some of them (e.g., Sonic 3) and they're still available to those that got them before they were removed.

I wonder how revisionist Gruber's memory must be to have plastered over Tim and Donald's friendly relationship during Trump's first term. Does he forget the Mac Pro factory tour Cook invited Trump to, the dinners they reportedly arranged together and the phone calls they admit they had over the European Union? Does he think all of this changed, because Trump is the bad guy and Tim Cook is always his superhero?

If nothing good comes of this Trump election cycle at least it will make Gruber question the moral basis of his career. The man spent the past decade of his life curating an imperative defense of America's largest company and now he's getting high off his own supply of bullshit. The real wonder is how anyone took Gruber seriously for so long. We really wanted our presumptions to be masturbated that badly, huh? Tragic.
Typically judge rejects the huge sums, and he gets more reasonable amount, if even fair. E.g. judge might award him only proven costs with receipts, and reject all the pain-and-suffering.

Genuine question, considering you can already do what you're talking about with ActivityPub what makes you stick around on ATproto/Bsky?
> The issue isn't about the woman's right over her body, it's about the woman's right over the fetus. And all the "a woman's right over her body" talk, to opponents, looks like an attempt to sweep that under the rug and ignore it. "But they want to control our bodies!" No, most of them don't. They want you to not kill the fetuses. It has the same result, but a different motivation.

I agree the democrats have long been screwing the pooch with the "pro choice" messaging extreme, but you're taking it too far in the other direction. Abortions past viability [outside the womb] are generally highly illegal in even the most "liberal" states, because that would indeed be murdering the fetus.

What the religious fundamentalists want is for everyone to have to pretend that a non-viable fetus, likely suffering from genetic defects, is actually a person (with a "soul" per their beliefs), for as long as can be done until the life of the mother is finally threatened. They are of course free to push this narrative to their own communities, but making that regressive anti-scientific regime the limit for "medical care" available to everyone is utter dark ages insanity.

And once again, I do completely agree with the overall point about the democratic party being a general failure - in both messaging and concrete policy. But I'm also not going to focus on this too hard right now because they're not the ones who actually pulled the giant self destruct lever. Responsibility where responsibility is due.
Wow, that's pretty extreme! It's hard to imagine how someone could write something more extreme.

I don't see how listening to someone in a different way, which is what I described in the GP, would cause someone to lose control of their physical health, lose their friends, etc. ?
You sound right on the money here. Occam’s Razor suggests they’re rebooting for a reason we know about rather than an undocumented security feature.
Well, I personally do not.

I was about to be put in blood pressure medication. Then I started a gym, with a trainer. I noticed that, after the exercise, blood pressure would immediately drop and stay low for a few hours.

Over time, the amount of time it spent lower than average increased, and it got lower and lower. It crossed 24h.

Now? I can go to the gym Mon/Wed/Fri and it will remain low at all times. I did stop for a couple of weeks and it started creeping back up so it's not a 'cure', but functionally, as long as I keep it up, I have normal BP.

I still have some weight to lose, that can further help things, most likely. And removing sugars also did help since I dropped a lot of liquid I was retaining.
Desire to have kids is driven by mostly fear, uncertainty, death.

This is partly why poor people with little social safety net have most kids.

The more safeties exist in a country, the less kids are there.

Simple as that.
I'm not an economist at all.

I'm just someone who is very good at their job. I'm better at what I do that 99% of the people. But in my previous job I wasn't. They did me a favor that they let me go. I was lucky and I found quickly another job where I happened to be a very good fit.

The experience of being laid off and then finding a much better job is not unique to me. It's not universal, but it's not that rare either.

In a world where the barriers for firing people are high, lots of people will find themselves stuck in jobs they hate. I'm sure you will disagree, you'll say that people are free to go and look for another job at all times. But that's just theory. In practice only a small minority of people do that. Most will just suffer through a bad job, because they have bills to pay, kids to feed, etc. This is just a fact.

The point is that cycling doesn’t have to be dangerous, it currently is due to external factors that can be fixed.
Modern "platforms" sponsor content and push what they want, much like magazines and TV outlets. So social media as we know it is kind of a new development in technology that needs to be addressed properly.
It's not pedantry when it's the root of the problem.

Cycling isn't dangerous, being on the street with cars is dangerous. Being on the street on a bike is dangerous, walking down a street is dangerous. Heck being in a compact car on today's streets with oversized/overweight vehicles is dangerous.

It's important to be precise about the source of the danger because it correctly identifies the problem.

There's a big push right now to ban people from buying and registering Kei cars with the argument being that they're too dangerous on american roads. If that argument holds, firstly, then it flows logically that they can nanny state people off of their bikes and motorcycles as well using the same argument. Secondly, Kei cars are not dangerous, getting hit in a kei car by an oversized SUV or "light" truck is.

> As you say yourself, those things are typically bullshit anyway (mostly targeted at disenfranchising minorities)

Maybe, but I do think it's a worsening of partisanship - time was when the civil service felt a responsibility to remain strictly neutral and implement the policies of our elected leaders, right or wrong. Now people put their personal morals first and are less willing to implement a law they disagree with, and while there are good sides to that, it's also reducing trust in government services.

> they're definitely not something that can substantially and continuously influence a presidential election in a single direction in a country of 400millions.

Could they overwhelm a popular landslide? No. Could they nudge the vote enough to tip the balance in a knife-edge election? Perhaps.

That's not a serious policy analysis, or even much of a debate exercise.

Currently, all code is executed server-side (on a Node VM Module created on Worker Threads, using Hono+Websocket to provide the ability to run it in Minecraft), so it is not possible to run Turtle inside the screen. However, if there is a lot of desire for such functionality, it may be possible to use a VM (such as scratch-vm) within the browser to run the code.
Aider very much does pull in the right files to create context for itself. It also uses treesitter to build a repo-map and then uses that as an initial reference for everything, asking you to add the files it thinks it needs for the context. As of quite recently it also supports adding files for context in explicit read-only mode. It works extremely well.

This is a good read: https://aider.chat/2023/10/22/repomap.html

A standard so standard you had to give two of the dimensions so as not to confuse it with something else? Like a 48 U tall data center rack, or a 23" wide telco rack?

Okay, so it is relatively standard these days, but the problem is you can change how many "U" or racks you need for the same amount of storage based on how you want to arrange it, for a given use case which will affect access patterns and how it's wired up. A single server could be a compute box hosting no disks (at which point your dataset at rest won't even fit) or 4U holding 60 SATA drives vertically, at which point you could get 60*32TiB, 1.9 pebibytes for your data in 2024, but it would be a bit slow and have no redundancy. You could fit ten of those in a single rack for 19 petabytes with no tor switch, and just run twenty 1-gig Ethernet cables out (two per server)
but what would be the point of that, other than a vendor trying to sell you something?

Anyway, so say you're told the dataset is 1 petabytes in 2024, is it on a single server or spread across many; possibly duplicated across multiple racks as well? You want to actually read the data at some point, and properly tuning storage array(s) to keeping workers fed and not bottleneck on reading the data off storage may involve some changes to the system layout if you don't have a datacenter fabric with that kind of capacity. Which puts us back at sharding the data in multiple places, at which point even though the data does fit on a single server, it's spread out across a bunch for performance reasons.

Trying to derive server layout from dataset size like asking about the number of lines of code used. A repo with 1 million LoC is different from one with 1,000, sure, but what can you really get from that?

Let me clue you in on a little-discussed fact about American manufacturing: it's highly automated and has been for the past 30 years. I should know, I worked for a company that was a market leader in automating manufacturing.

You can bring manufacturing back to America all you want, you're not bringing back jobs. You also aren't have any trading partners. Sorry dude. That era is over. It's as futile to bring back as trying to bring back chain mail to modern warfare.

Maybe, though in my experience beginner PhD students will often write like this in early manuscript drafts after they've been working on some project for a few months. Usually it's easily fixed by having someone more experienced proof-read it with comments explaining why that is bad style. Worst case, they'll learn the hard way (i.e., conference reviewers). But seeing this without any proof-reading on some public physics lab site just makes me cringe that they have unchecked write access to that site.
It's not the lock on the file, it's the lock on the directory. The common file dialog in Windows changes the current directory of the process to the file that was selected, and a Win32 process holds a lock on its current directory. So when you open readme.txt in a particular folder, Notepad.exe's current directory is changed to and holds a lock on that folder.

This is also why so many people run into problems trying to eject removable drives -- because the last thing they did was to save a file onto that drive, and now Outlook or whatever the program that did the save has its current directory pointing there.
A very disingenuous comparison.
