Release is a process, not a single instant, so "hasn't been released yet" depends on which point in this process you like to call a "release". There is a non-rc release tag on github [1]. The binaries are not available for download (yet), so I assume that is your requirement for the "release", correct?

Sorry, I had no idea that there is a paywall. I use the extension[1] that removes majority of paywalls.

This is a very fascinating chart! It seems that over the five centuries the healthspan (probability of survival within the lifespan) increased drastically but the lifespan itself is more or less fixed at 90-100 years. The healthy plateau is much longer now but the following drop is much faster.

> the effects of tax loss harvesting are really only significant for a few years after acquiring the asset (since stocks tend to go up over time)

This is true only if you invest once in your life and then hold those assets forever. But if you invest every quarter then you can do TLH on those new lots individually. And since those new lots will keep coming, your TLH will always have something to work with.

Watch Gangs of London and The Punisher. Fighting scenes are much better choreographed and are more realistic and brutal.

> One tip if you are a resident of California, a lot of libraries allow you to get a Library card such as LA, San Francisco libraries etc.

I've just tried and this is what I got (I live in San Jose): "You must be a resident of Los Angeles to register for a library card."

You can always buy NFLX with cash in your brokerage account. It's not like you are going to get any discounts if you choose to receive part of your salary in stock.

No, that was a different developer.

Yeah, knowing the financial incentives makes me very cautions about installing any new extensions. And even for the old extensions I check the recent comments from time to time to see if there's any suspicious new behavior.

I don't think that would be useful, for two reasons:

1. What rules are being violated by these offers? It is what happens after the sale might break the rules but I can't report someone for having bad intentions.

2. I do not believe Google would be interested in spending even a minute of their precious human time to do any real investigation. If they can't automate the solution then they ignore the problem.

> In other words, there a great many developers who are likely to be open to someone else buying up their creation along with their user base.

As a maintainer of a relatively popular extension (hoverzoom+, ~360K users) I get business offers all the time [1]. A few of them are pretty good, actually. I'm not surprised that some developers eventually give up and take one of those offers. But I am surprised that there aren't more of these "under new management" extensions, or maybe we just don't know about them.

I wonder if Intel is also going to increase compensation across the board to be able to execute on this bold plan. Historically, Intel's salaries were among the lowest and it has been losing talent left and right to its chip-making competitors (Apple, Nvidia, etc).

Ideologically this aligns well with Amazon's general direction of encroaching into a personal space, like in-home deliveries [0] and police partnerships [1].

Are you suggesting "we lose money on every sale, but make it up on volume" approach?

I think you might want to read this[1] excellent series on Epic and their ecosystem. It covers most of your questions.

I'm actually surprised this is not already built into Shopify by default. This seems like a very basic functionality which can be added at any moment so what would that do with a startup?

From the article: "...the LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor will be available in Autumn 2020 from LEGO.com, LEGO Retail Stores and retailers globally."

You can actually do a sort-of pull request: suggested changes. When editing mode of the document is set to "reviewing" then your changes would appear as sidebar suggestions which the owner can accept or reject.

I'm in the same boat. My open source chrome extension[1] has just been taken down[2] after several years of no complaints because it apparently violated content policies related to nudity and pornography. Say what? Well, I guess you could view _any_ image using my extension, including nudes. Isn't that the problem with most other extensions which could be used on porn sites, like editing cookies, etc? I've submitted it for re-review but I'm not holding much hopes.

It was done on purpose, similar to how Pixar movies have obviously cartoony and unrealistic characters in an otherwise photo-realistic environment.

Does anyone know how to implement a virtual webcam in python on MacOS? I want to implement something like zoom's background replacement but I can't find a way to represent the output as a webcam that can be used as an input by various conferencing apps.

This deserves a larger blog post, perhaps with some more practical examples? I would love to understand this model better.

Where do you get metformin from?

You can substitute it with over-the-counter Berberine: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5839379/

You should normalize this by the company size. Larger company is expected to discontinue more products.
