Your initial proposal was that most of the Covid related deaths were due underlying conditions.

Now you propose that the underlying condition most present isn't really a condition.

"More than 99% of Italy’s coronavirus fatalities were people who suffered from previous medical conditions"

What were the most common pre-existing conditions?

"More than 75% had high blood pressure, about 35% had diabetes and a third suffered from heart disease."

How common are those conditions in the United States?

High Blood Pressure - 1 in 3

Diabetes - 9 in 100

Heart Disease - 1 in 10

It doesn't matter if it is IR, UV, or visible. Only the power and duration matter.

Lidar uses very short pulses and very low power and is very safe even en masse.

It is almost certainly someone using lazy-loading when they should have disabled it for that query.

Though... since it sounds like the query was returning the entire table at once eager loading will cause issues of another variety at some point.

Either way, I'd chalk it up to bad design rather than bad tools.

Grails / Tomcat

I'm not one to proselytize since I use a handful of languages every day, but when my Java hat is on, I double click a build target, my software is tested, built, deployed side-by-side with my current production build.

New users are automatically pushed to the new build, and users with existing sessions remain on the previous build. When I undeploy the previous build, the rest of the users start seeing the new build as well.

That's all out of the box with small config tweaks for our environment. It is truly torturous.

Of course it does.

Not that a little detail like that would stop someone from complaining about something that they don't put in the effort to learn.

Which isn't to say that 1550 nm light is safer -- the mode of destruction is just different, e.g. corneal damage leading to cataracts or surface burns rather than retinal damage.

Typically you select a class of laser safe for the environment it will be used in -- class 1 is typical of LIDAR systems for this reason which poses no eye damage risk.

The same way that Spotify doesn't just ham-fistedly show you all your Facebook messages... and other apps don't show you messages intended for Spotify.

Presumably messages are tagged in such a way that the source and/or destination are intended for Spotify. Using that same system, you should be able to specify "Spotify can only read & write Spotify messages."

Didn't downvote, but your premise that people don't understand that there are heating/cooling cycles is not really a thing for anyone even minutely interested in this area of study.

In fact, here's a very detailed page describing those cycles and why it appears we are deviating from the natural order.

That page indicates that you do need an M1 for motor driven cycles(less than 150cc), and an M1 or M2 for Mopeds(which is news to me).

It is insane to me that Microsoft hasn't already provided this. I get that you can't replace VBA entirely, or phase it out, without breaking a Lot of Things, and putting a lot of VBA programmers out of work. But every aspect of this being native to Excel would make macro work and data programming easier for a huge segment of the business world.

In other words, I like what you're doing and will probably buy a license. But... I don't see a license option that looks like it lets me test it out in a commercial environment without paying first. I might just be missing something there though. I'd love to test it out and be in compliance with your licensing.

Honestly, I don't think they get to make that call once the device is in consumer hands. In this case it was for "the greater good", but now the fence posts can be moved in a bit more the next time they feel justified towards remotely manipulating something that isn't theirs.

Their corporate/technical solution towards my exploding washing machine was to just cover up the Heavy Duty and Bedding cycle selectors with a sticker.

Their corporate/technical solution towards their exploding phones was to remotely brick them if they weren't returned by a certain point.

My enthusiasm for their entrance to this market is very low.

Still not remotely accurate... did you read the article?

Attention seeking behavior. Maybe a clever teacher asking students to create fake news to see how easy people are to fool. Boredom.

See -- Programmer Automates His Job Away for 6 years and then forgets how to program.

I don't think any individual aspect of the story is unbelievable, but when taken as a whole it stretches credulity.

Or... since no aspect of the story is verifiable, and much of it is nonsensical in the reactions of all parties involved, it is completely fake.

The debate is stupid because one side is taking an absolute position against a programming tool that has been used successfully by thousands(millions?) of projects.

The funny thing about the anti-ORM-ists position is that they are either:

1) Exclusively embedding raw SQL in their code, and accessing each query result by also hard-coding column names and value types in map look-ups. Maybe this is a "pure" approach, but it is also very brittle as models evolve.

Or,

2) They develop their own naive ORM implementation without the self-awareness to realize that is what they are doing. As zzzeek said, "If your application has objects, and talks to a relational database to marshal result rows into instances of those objects, you are using an ORM."

But you'd need to cut weight by getting rid of the batteries.

Ironic that their page crashed again but here's a cached version: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://...

This is from 2013 so in terms of recovery years it is a bit dated...

But the first three questions all posit that unemployment was rising, and that reemployment was not occurring which is(and was) belied by this graph -https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000000

Oh that is true, I meant fun and interesting for me. I'm sure every day is a slog for those poor souls doing the actual work.

I think bathing yourself in a tub full of nanowires is a bad idea.

I think experimenting to determine why and how cells do this, and if it is potentially useful is fun/interesting science.

I've been following the Rossi debacle since 2011 so it has been quite a bit longer than that.

As goes the software world, the majority of these "applications" won't exist in 5 years.

Conversely, for those that do still exist, the new developers can simply bash the old technology stack and code and demand to rewrite in the new flavor of the week anyway.

Well I hope you'll consider voting on it when someone proposes a law to make being a dick on the internet illegal.

Maybe you'll feel good about voting on one of the other 30 races or ballot initiatives that might influence generations to come?

There's no law against leaving an entry blank.... until one is introduced and you don't care enough to vote against it.
