Probably not if there is a +/- of 10% error rate.

Those cans would require storage for 6 years. Then someone would have to make sure they are used before they expired. Now compare that to cash the company could put the surge of cash into an account and buy the right food.

One could fuzz test the debug versions to ensure it's safe. And they really need the extra performance for prod. Perhaps they are confident that is enough testing? We know it can never be 100%

Most now aren't even done for religious purposes but just because everyone else does it.

This is what the article touched on. The culture has to shift to viewing drug addicts not as "druggies" but as someone with a problem who needs help. They changed the language they used to call them. Once this shift happened it's led the path to actually helping them instead of vilifying them.

Because that might add a bunch of code that may or may not be useful. It might be that this is inlined everywhere and so would bump some of code to a different alignment. Perhaps it's timing critical and this saved a few calls. Perhaps they use static analysis only. Or they might have debug versions where they do use the safety checks and then for production versions it's preprocessed out.

There could be plenty of different reason.

If they copied or used code that relied on using the safe memcpy_s, instead of having to change that code to use the unsafe versions, this could just be a proxy layer that lets that code run. This might be done so it's easier to keep the other code up to date if it's getting updated else where.

Wikipedia has a list of websites known to use this technique already: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_ETag#Tracking_using_ETags

Looks like KISSmetrics are getting sued with a class action lawsuit over using this technique.

Can generate etags for css files. Even normal html content can give an etag.

Amiga 500 had great graphics and music for it's time (1987-) Is there even a comparable PC at that time? I believe we had the Atari ST, Apple IIgs, and Acorn around the time.

Here was merely an example. Sometimes I might want to use a web based IDE like edit file on GitHub or GitLab.

I happily played Sierra and LucasArts' games on my Amiga 500. Here is a list of Amiga Games on wikipedia showing the King's Quest series: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Amiga_games_(I%E2%80%9...

Spaces always work online in a text box whilst spaces do not.

Pressing tab in here doesn't give me an indent but changes focus.

  But spaces always work

You forget that life expectancy for native populations aren't due to them to not living long lives, but more due to the fact they have more deaths at childhood (due to stuff like bacteria infections and other diseases we now prevent). So you have a big chunk of population dying young. Also these cultures can be more violent and often have wars killing a big chunk. But past that bump it's not as short as the average (it's far larger). For example the Native Americans if one of them lived to 40, he could expect to live to round 70. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/12o4py/what_...

70 is easily a cancer age. Going by the current research at https://scienceblog.cancerresearchuk.org/2015/02/04/why-are-... one can expect 3/4 people over 60 to have cancer. And it's increasing.

So yeah the not living long enough doesn't really hold water. Also juvenile cancers weren't really a thing at all until the modern world (more likely bacterial infections until we discovered penicillin were more likely for juvenile deaths).

Yes Egyptians started the "modern" diet of consuming grain/wheat etc. They also have records from those eating that type of food poor dental hygiene.

The hunter gathers tribes we all encounter have very low (if non existent) rates of cancer, diabetes, obesity, and other western diseases. Once they start consuming a modern diet of flour, sugar etc these diseases are now at extremely high rates. You can see this in the aborigines of Australia for example. The inuit of Canada, and so forth.

Your links about dinosaur cancers said they found cancers only one type of dinosaur. I would say that's a genetic thing more than an environmental. Then the other animal cancers mentioned underneath seem to have a human component involved.

I would say that further supports the theory.

That is in now way to make a valid point and convince people.

It might be true, but some guy who looks crazy making some youtube videos is going to put people right off any point you are trying to make.

Cancer is a fairly modern disease. You can even see from the accounts of encounters with native tribes, cancer is virtually unknown until they start consuming western food.

I don't like where this thought experiment goes. Replace internet with earth.

Why is it seen as an obvious truth that we should allow every single person onto the Earth, without ever being able to remove them?

What you speak about is tribalism and is a genetic trait that used to help us survive. But we can rise above our animal instincts and be better.

Safe is measuring how many deaths per user various power generations sources cause. Coal etc is less safe then nuclear because it causes more deaths. Yes when a nuclear accident happens, it can be bad, but that doesn't happen that often at all. Compared to the numerous accidents and deaths that happen every day with say coal. Also coal is outputting pollutants into the atmosphere which causes more deaths (a slower death but dead is dead). Cleaning up that air is also just as difficult as cleaning up nuclear waste.

Exactly, now how would you do a key that contained spaces?

It's basically dormitory style housing, but planned for adults/workers.

I would use something like this for sure in other countries, like London.

Instead of having to go into town every day, go in Monday and come out Friday.

That maths don't add up. If 200 countries need to do 989bn, then they need to do 4.945, let's say 5.

If we consider countries with more population are going to plant more (so trees per capita perhaps). We could go with landmass but it takes money/people to do this, so let's go with capita.

Pakistan being a highly populated country and so needs to plan more than the 5bn average (they did 10).

But there is a very long tail of small countries in that list of 200 so many more small countries. Most will go below the average needed and so won't stack up.

This actually taught me that the losing strategies win more often then we thought.

I got positive 2 our 4 times for the single 13 choice.

And for the strategy to double your bet to cover your loss actually worked for me!

Everyone would complain about the "dead pixel" in the middle of their screen.

Actually quite a few countries have a high net worth investment citizen track. You promise to loan/invest in the country above a specified amount and you can get a passport.

There is the USA EB-5 for example. Reading up, an investment of only $500,000 and creating 10 jobs can be sufficient.

The rank it gives is purely one dimensional yet comparing passport power is multidimensional. For example I compared Canada, Australia and UK. Canada got 166 just above the others but looking at the compare list some countries give visa free for fewer days than the others. Is that more or less "power"?

Yes I asked if I could get a pat down instead of the backscatter x-ray at Heathrow. Was made to feel like a criminal, questioned etc and put under pressure. And then to be told I don't have to get scanned but I can't get on my flight unless I do. There wasn't even an opt out.

9.6% not 50%

My favourite is that cancer and glucose are linked https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16892078 so removing glucose starves the cancer.

That site was really hard to read. Small and narrow fonts with a strange font face.
