Could you give a recent example? Because your example is as pertinent as the overthrowing of Guatemala's democratically elected President in 1954 by the CIA.

Proxmox for 40k vm would be surprising also veeam support Proxmox.

There are 2 maple grove owner in my extended family (both are my uncles one on my father side and one on my mother side) so I never saw that as a luxury product and never had to acquire maple syrup at market price.

But I understand your point, if you grew on the fake stuff and considering how expensive maple syrup is, you have nothing to gain by training yourself to prefer the real stuff.

Something like the CDPQ in Québec ?

I predict that they will be as effective as Extinction Rebellion : lot's of noise, some protesters arrested and no results.

What's the grade of the maple syrup you tried ? (the new grading system is stupid everything is grade A with a color name)

In my opinion,

The A golden is light and subtle, I don't know what it's for; it's the variety we sell in tourists, and to peoples that likes fancy bottles and higher prices!

The A amber is great as a condiment in small quantities, for pancakes it's the best.

The A dark is the best for cooking deserts.

And the A very dark is my favorite for cooking meats like ham and ribs.

So if you only tasted the A golden I can see why you would prefer the fake syrup if you were raised on that stuff. But I would be surprised if you prefer the fake stuff to the A dark.

It's really an old problem, there were graffiti in Greece in 200AD !

You can but sadly most people ask for awnsers.

You could launch it as a systemd user target with OOMScoreAdjust=500 in the service section; weird and unconventional but wrapped in .desktop file it doesn't appear to be unwieldy.

That's reads like an egotic cocaine fueled rant mixed with a PBS pledges drive.

I understand why the author deleted it !

It's a Rust/ASM port, look there: https://github.com/memorysafety/rav1d/blob/main/src/ext/x86/...

I am not sure if it is that much safer than the C version when raw assembly is still required.

This thread made me think of this song/sketch from Kids in the Hall.

excellent article, great vulgarisation and human written !

Thank you

It's so cheaper that you can buy 2, disassemble one and inspect the electronic (spot thermometer and a cheap ESR tester). it's a charger not a nuclear power plant !

It really depends on the union, mine concentrate on less hours for a salary that follow inflation, parental leaves and a gold plated drug insurance. I work 32.5 hours per week in the summer, have 24 days off, 2 personal days and 12 statutory holidays; that's 36 paid days off !

Memory safety for existing C and C++ codebase.

But it was truly not urgent, I would have been ok with waiting 6 months!

And the scans are not scheduled months in advance. We complained that we were only informed of the date and time of the next scan a few days before it... The explanation was that they have a must not be done before and a must be done after dates but the actual scheduling is done just in time so urgent case are prioritized before routine care.

I live in Québec, Canada and the longest I had to wait was 3 months for a gallbladder ablation. And my wife, who is on her fourtht year of ribociclib to prevent her spinal metastasis (breast cancer) from coming back, have timely periodical CT-PET and IRM scans.

MAID is popular not because of lack of care but because Québécois values their autonomy and quality of life above being simply alive for the longest time possible.

Either it doesn't work or it's happening gradually and then suddenly, like bankruptcy according to Hemingway.

I had cable internet in 1997; it was wonderful in it's unmetered¹ symmetric 10Mbs glory.

1) wasn't supposed to be unlimited but the ISP didn't bother to mesure it until sometime in 2000

The concepts feature of Nim really looks like what your looking for https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#concepts

Thank you for posting that. I also read that on some less authoritative source I don't remember. It's truly scandalous. I wish ETFs will revolt and apply the old rule for inclusion, but I have no illusion it will happen.

just one: why it named System/4 Pi ? (the Pi part especially)

There a difference between overpriced and snake oil. If you claim that your cables "gives the breath-taking experience of ‘being there’ thanks to the purity of its conductors and their precise geometry" your firmly into the snake oil territory. If you sell an amp with hand picked components to achieve 0.001% THD at 100w on a 4KHz test tone, it's probably overkill and overpriced but unlike the cables it's not fraud adjacent.

As long as the garbage data is authentic and the method used to produce it is adequately detailed, I agree with you that: "it's better to publish the garbage data than to not publish it"

But fake data or garbage data without the method, is better left unpublished !

It's the inverse, here how you have to bet (unless you plan to be doing the hands on assassination works) : X will get re-elected. Company Y CEO will not change in 2027. This is not artist Z last tour. Athlete K will participate in this event etc.

Like I said elsewhere in this thread the bet have to be lost if you want your target dead.

If someone want him dead, someone have to bet that million on the target being alive at a specific date. Unless someone plan to do the execution themselves, the bet must be lost for the target to be unalive !

I too had esophagogastroduodenoscopy and the "sedation" I received as a barely noticeable dose of fentanyl. It was unpleasant to feel like I was drowning in saliva but it was quite bearable.

If I ever receive that procedure again, I will ask to skip the fentanyl microdose. The anesthesia and the buzz were not only underwhelming but for some reasons I started to feel the typical opioid warmth when the procedure was almost completed. Had they waited a few minutes after the IM injection I might have had another opinion on the usefulness on fentanyl during endoscopie because the last 30s were almost pleasant!

Because the cancers cells adapt! (fast reproduction and high mutation rate of the cancerous cells make that process quicker than antibiotics resistance)

from the article (pay attention to the part in italics):

FLASH radiotherapy flips the conventional approach on its head, delivering a single dose of ultrahigh-power radiation in a burst that typically lasts less than one-tenth of a second. In study after study, this technique causes significantly less injury to normal tissue than conventional radiation does, without compromising its antitumor effect.
