Are you saying that the USPS delivering a handful of advertisements in addition to the odd package has greater demands than UPS/Fedex/Amazon delivering the bulk of the large packages in our society?
The choice of color here is not obvious to me. For example, greener could mean more money, i.e. more expensive. Also red connotes debt/negative in accounting, while black is surplus/positive. If you're eating a tomato, red is good and green is bad (unless fried I guess).
C is great for its basics, but at some level, when you gain awareness of all of your unpunished pointer lifetime sins and how annoying the lack of basic data structures is in stdlib, then you realize that biting the bullet and learning something like Rust is the way to go. Maybe a better stdlib would help, but I've found that the pain of becoming proficient in Rust has paid back multiples over the continual toil of doing certain repetitive tasks in C.
This is the clear-headed take. As a point of clarification, I don't believe Dotcom has anything to do with Mega anymore, and the service Mega has gone legit and provides quite a nice a service similar to Tresorit -- end-to-end encrypted cloud storage.
They probably could if the host country agreed to it. It's just a matter of diplomacy. The US certainly doesn't have any special status, just better relationships, especially with the English-speaking countries.
Wait til you hear about this new startup called Google. They are going to launch yet another search engine. I doubt there's much money in it, though. They'll be lucky to make a few million.
One is necessary to have a legal transaction, while the other is rent-seeking. People buy cars all the time without agents. We have excellent websites to educate us about car features and locate cars for sale. Realtors keep their racket going by working with each other to get houses sold, while ignoring FSBO homes. In fact, buyer's agents have a conflict of interest in that they get paid more if you pay more for the house. How people accept this befuddles me.
This is quite an old problem. A quick search of PubMed yields 4834 results for "noninvasive blood pressure monitoring". Caltech has a weird definition of "first".
Edit: To clarify, plenty of things have been tried besides the cuff, but most patients who need something more sophisticated than that are already sick enough to be in the ICU, where an a-line can be placed. This is really a solution in search of a problem.
Not just yes men, but an entire monoculture of people who don't see how exceptional and different they are from the vast majority of humanity. Unfortunately, their culture is being reinforced by fat, soulless advertising money and not any philosophical or moral superiority. With their collective finger on the AGI button, this may be our downfall.
In Table 3, being white is a very significant predictor (p=0.007) of being able to wait at least 7 min, but in Table 7 they don't report white among the races at all. Does this mean the difference among white kids is entirely explained by SES and other covariants? Conversely, does this mean being black has an effect not explained by other covariants? That seems pretty controversial.
Exactly. It's not appropriate for this type of question. LLMs can summarize the global internet sentiment about something pretty well, but they aren't the right architecture for answering precise scientific questions, nor will they ever be. It's like asking an old, experienced physicist to guess answers to things instead of solving equations.
Your kettle's power cable is sized to handle the relatively tiny current put into it, but even then it does warm up slightly. Try to run a million amps through it, and it will vaporize.
This type of laser carries so much energy that even a tiny fraction of a percent absorption will add up quickly, hence the propensity for injury.
That's amazing. I was just about to comment that hooking this up to Lean [1] would be killer. This must be the way forward for higher math, as proofs are getting so complicated that almost no one understands all pieces of major proofs.
