It's possible to die of "protein poisoning" but you really have to be in a survival situation with no sources of fat. Hunters and trappers are known to have died this way when only lean meat was available in far northern winters. Maybe this is where the idea came from.
I imagine that all states would have more trouble managing more roads than they currently do, and less trouble managing fewer roads than they currently do.
I'd like to see California consider reducing the total mileage of roads and focus on having a smaller amount of higher quality paved surfaces. My neighborhood street does not need to be 60ft wide, and our freeways do not need more lanes.
I don't mean temporary shelter. But I agree there is a subset of the homeless population that have more problems than just homelessness. It may be impossible to solve their homelessness without solving other problems first.
I think the author agrees but is dismayed that these organizations don't "solve" homelessness. I'll offer the suggestion that it might be _even better_ to donate that money towards somehow providing housing.
Even on the equator, sunrise and sunset times will vary by +/-15 minutes, because solar days are not of equal length. But yeah, close enough for imprecise use.
Well, there's also the rate of new drug and procedure discovery. I've heard it quipped that Americans are subsidizing the discovery of new medical techniques for the rest of the world. Whether that's worth a higher cost is arguable but I think the effect is there.
They're thinking about when you sample from the same noise distribution, averaging gives an unbiased estimator of the mean. But when you know one SNR is higher than the other, maybe this doesn't hold? But maybe if you transform the distributions to look the same, thus taking a weighted average? I'm not sure.
Most people don't work out enough, or don't eat well enough. If we had some kind of intervention that would easily cause people to work out, we would use that intervention. If we had some kind of intervention that would easily cause people to eat well, we would use that intervention. The reason working out and good diet are good is because of good health outcomes. If we have some kind of intervention that skips straight to the good health outcomes, we would use that intervention. It seems like Ozempic is _that_ intervention, so we will use it. I will likely choose Ozempic for myself once it is available to me.
It just makes one wonder, what is the point of categories of Nobel prizes? Should they instead hand out half a dozen or so prizes each year for whatever is most important to them?
Yes, and I'll also note that the secondary stress seems to be on the second syllable. That is, the second syllable is not reduced like in the UK. So it's pronounced most commonly in the US more like "Anne Chovy" than "Anchvy"
Is there a way snafu could be redesigned not to rename Error to Snafu in custom error variants? It's annoying for like IDE reasons, but maybe technically challenging to fix.
I personally have used it because it can provide backtraces in stable Rust. It also can be used either similarly to anyhow (with the `whatever` macro) or more like thiserror (with explicit errors as enum variants). I don't have experience with eyre so can't provide a comparison there.
Brainfuck isn't maximizing difficulty, it's just a turing tarpit, maximizing a narrow definition of simplicity. If you want to see a language that maximizes difficulty, take a look at INTERCAL or Malbolge.
At least visiting other parts of Manhattan -- I'm thinking for example LES -- there is definitely constant traffic and exhaust. Doesn't really matter if it's gridlock or not, moving cars emit more sound and fumes than idling cars do.
No, it didn't bother me; Oppenheimer himself never saw the devastation, he only could imagine it. It seems suiting for what the film was doing, to focus on his inner emotional state.
You might be confusing types and traits (typeclasses) here; it's not about `YourType` but rather when you want to make a Vec of heterogenous types that share a trait. That's when the question of object safety (and needing a vtable) arises.
The 1% worst human drivers are really quite unpredictable. You're never certain with any human driver whether they're going to drive like a maniac, but you do know you're not getting that with a Waymo.
They're the present here in SF, driving every day and more safely than the humans do. And as a human driver, I can testify that these streets are not particularly easy to drive on.
It’s prudish tendencies like outlawing apartments with no windows that force folks like me, who don't care for safety anyway, to compete for housing with families who do need safety.
but unironically; it'd be much safer than the street
