Here is the Standard calling her one of the Queens of England. It does later point out that she was technically the Queen of the United Kingdom, but the headline is content to use the Queen of England shorthand:

https://www.standard.co.uk/news/royals/all-queens-england-ho...

Here is an article from the Sun that directly refers to her as the Queen of England without any sort of correction whatsoever:

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/3352901/queen-elizabeth-birthd...

Most people would simply say "The Queen" without clarification, but if you're going to say what she was the queen of, I suspect a lot more people would say the phrase "The Queen of England" than "The Queen of the United Kingdom", simply because the former phrase rolls off the tongue more, and we're all used to learning about the kings and queens of England in history or from those rulers sold at gift shops.

I think it's worth reminding people of Occam's Razor, and the point of it is: a simple explanation is often better than a complicated one.

The US has had water fluoridation for 65 years, affecting 346 million people. That's a pretty big god damn sample size and long amount of time in which to observe effects. If we still have no proof of significant negative health effects, it's probably not bad for you.

That said: you can always lower the amount of fluoride if it turns out the local area already gets a lot of fluoride from other sources. You don't need to ban it, you can just lower the levels.

So please don't defend this decision by Utah. They're being children.

> The fractional retention or balance of fluoride at any age depends on the quantitative features of absorption and excretion. For healthy, young, or middle-aged adults, approximately 50 percent of absorbed fluoride is retained by uptake in calcified tissues, and 50 percent is excreted in the urine. For young children, as much as 80 percent can be retained owing to increased uptake by the developing skeleton and teeth (Ekstrand et al., 1994a, b). Such data are not available for persons in the later years of life, but based on bone mineral dynamics, it is likely that the fraction excreted is greater than the fraction retained.

> The bitch about scientific studies is you can’t find what you don’t know to look for.

This is only true if you assume that all effects are too small to notice. If you run an experiment on adding fluoride to water, declare an interest in enamel thickness, and then observe that 30% of the experimental group died within six months, you just made a finding that you didn't know you should have been looking for.
For me, there are a lot of applications that I want to be able to load regardless of whether I have a connection to the Internet or not: calendar, notes, mail etc. They can sync/send/whatever whenever I am next online.
"They are technically operating within the laws created by democratically elected officials, though."

Two issues: first, they may be technically operating within the law but if the legislation which enacted the law was achieved by processes/means that were biased/not truly democratic (i.e.: ones that benefit them) then citizens are disadvantaged. Unequal representation is undemocratic.

Second, laws may be on the books but if the State does not prosecute when they are violated then it makes a mockery of the law. Big Tech/Business has used political power and influence to stop the State prosecuting. For example, Sherman antitrust (and its successors) have been on the books since the 1890s and the State has done essentially nothing to reign in monopolistic practices of these companies.

That's just for starters. By any objective measure democracy in the US is essentially non functional. One only has to look at the polarized political divide which is widening further by the day to see that.

The article / leak authors said that the leak resulted in the exposure of highly confidential protos.

I was saying that the article was wrong for saying that, but I was half wrong about that.

I thought that the thing they were talking about was something that the AI got from a public source, in which case the AI didn't disclose anything it was given in confidense. It just republished something that it itself got from a public source in the first place.

Except I think I had that wrong. The stuff was already published elsewhere, but that's not how the AI got it. The leak caused the AI to disclose some of it's own internal workings, which is actually a leak and does "result in the disclosure of something confidential" even of something else elsewhere had already also seperately disclosed the same thing. That other leak has no bearing in this case.

Perhaps, sadly, because if the State doesn't have to pick up the costs in health care, as in large parts of the developed world, then they lose their incentive to be proactive in addressing health issues.

In countries with some form of universal health care, simple proactive health interventions can save the State large amounts of money.

We do; fluoride tablets are common.

Brushing your teeth does a lot of things besides applying fluoride to the surface. It's mostly about getting stuff that's already there off the surface.

I recently discovered the usefulness of msgpack with a fixed scheme. Wrote a library for encoding/decoding msgpack based on structs. Like protobuf, it's compact and possible to evolve, plus I actually find it easier to deal with, since it decodes to native types, not protobuf wrappers. And you can read it in basically any language, which makes is super easy to debugging binary files/streams.
I looked in to this recently.

Turns out that carbon filters do filter fluoride, but only on the first few X litres of water, where X is in the first 0.01% or so of their expected lifespan. So, they do, but not really usefully in any sense.

My filter that I wanted to know about (so that my kid is getting fluoride) is a 2-stage filter, with the other stage being a particle filter, but fluoride is very small and unaffected.

Your filter might be different of course.

FWIW, in my city, the water has essentially zero fluoride if it isn't added, and it has been a great intervention.

I played with ReactOS a few months ago in a virtual machine, and even in that relatively controlled environment it still crashed a lot.

I’ve been hoping that ReactOS would be the thing that truly murdered Microsoft Windows, but that really hasn’t happened; it seems like that’s happening via combination of a lot of applications moving to the browser and compatibility layers like Wine and Proton.

Linux has pretty good driver support nowadays, and outside of drivers Wine will have as good or better support for applications, so I am not completely sure what that says about the future of ReactOS.

Like someone already said somewhere, it will come in steps.

Windows S Mode was already a test.

The nagging, warning and outright "blocking" (while hiding the "run anyway" button under "more info") is the first step. This already is a warning to software vendors that something will come.

The next step will be blocking unsigned exes on Home Editions (not on Pro or Enterprise), so that software vendors and most of places depending on unsigned old software can move on to signed software.

Then Home and Pro Editions of windows wont be able to run unsigned software anymore and if you need unsigned software to run you'll have to use an Enterprise Edition.

The last step would be no windows can run unsigned software anymore and if you need unsigned software running, you'll need to run that one on an Azure instance of Windows which can still run unsigned software or (if you can't / don't want to run your software in the cloud) you will have to contact Microsoft for a special Windows version, costing lots of money. But if your business depends on that one single unsigned exe file, you might be ready to pay for that one.

> I can't comment on DB because that is quite far out of my wheelhouse but regarding game engines, I've almost universally seen people revert to storing objects in arrays and passing around "handles" which is literally pointers with extra steps... But I guess at least you are protected from some issues there.

Regarding game engines, the empirical evidence shows that Bevy has been moving at least as fast as, if not faster than†, comparable C++ engines. I listed all the features I landed in the past year here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42945730

We love to argue on message boards about theoretical or anecdotal productivity of programming languages, but at the end of the day the only thing that matters is what people have actually been doing with the language, and for Rust the answer is "quite a lot, actually".

†In my view, Bevy has been moving significantly faster than comparable C++ engines, but I don't need to argue that to make my point.
Agreed, I lives in the Netherlands for a couple years and can agree there isn't much patriotism so much as pragmatism! (I actually mean that as a good thing, I was a very fond of NL and the friends I made there).

I found the aforementioned elements of Blue Velvet to be very uncomfortable to watch, but I also don’t think it was necessarily a work of obscenity on Lynch’s part. It always struck me that the film’s violence was intentionally framed in suburban noir. Or, that way the audience might wonder about the darker parts of 20th century Americana around them, much like Lynch did as a child.

That said, I’m on the fence if whether or not the violence in the movie felt earned to me or not.
It could, what do you have in mind with regards to chemical composition that may require fluoride in some circumstances?

And are those conditions manmade? If so, would we be better off reversing the proximal issues rather than adding fluoride to try to fix it?
