Yeah fair you can FOIA it, if you have the money and are willing to wait multiple years. But the data is never released without doing that. The point is there is no way for the average person to know whether the drugs they are prescribed ac

Unfortunately this is the status quo, not shenanigans. The data the FDA relies on to approve drugs and vaccines is considered a trade secret and is generally never made public.

I didn't read the study, but the article talks about the number of cases during a four month period.

Well if you have two groups, 100% of whom got the vaccine, versus 0.25% or whatever who got Covid, then sure that's not unlikely. But in a few years, 100% of those who don't get the vaccine will get covid. So this isn't exact

> The FBI doesn’t offer immunity. The DOJ does. Fair. But if the FBI gave someone a cryptographically signed offer of immunity and the person then confessed, you don't think the case would get thrown out?

by Alex3917 5y ago
If the FBI offers you immunity in exchange for implicating yourself in a crime, then they can't retroactively retract that offer after you've already confessed. This is true even in cases where the defendant was improperly offered

If you can send email from the FBI then you also have a get out of jail free card for any crime. Seems like a bad use of this access.

Or just garlic, pomegranates, hawthorne, beets, etc. It's not like there is any shortage of foods that boost NO, and don't have any major safety issues associated with them.

Well for one I can't run Python 3.10 in production because I use AWS Elastic Beanstalk, which currently only supports 3.8. And my development environment is Ubuntu, which also doesn't support it out of the box. So short of schedul

If it just required doing "pip install" then I'd try it to see how fast my test suite runs. But since it only works with Python 3.10 and .NET 6, realistically even just spending five minutes messing with it will require first

The typeface itself is subtly trippy and psychedelic, which is pretty interesting and unique; hard to think of any other typeface going for that.

I wrote a pretty similar blog post in 2013, based on my experiences learning to code in 2012. It's shocking how little has changed since then. Like probably there isn't a lot of reason to learn Jinja2 at this point, but even jQuer

Good advice, but anyone doing this now should be using: "Learn Python 3 the Hard Way." For whatever reason he renamed the book. edit: The Steve Huffman course is also how I learned. It's absolutely fantastic.

The issue is that they’d then have to pay for preclinical studies to determine safety, which would add millions of dollars to the budget. Whereas for psilocybin that work was largely done decades ago.

That sounds reasonable, but the comparison becomes an issue if there are vastly more people using React for small hobby projects that aren't meant to be businesses, or for things that aren't even web apps.

I'd agree with you if hitting the spacebar or the arrow keys made it scroll over a full page. But honestly this is pretty ridiculous.

FWIW AngularJS written in post-1.5 style (with components instead of controllers) is basically the same as Angular2, and the port from AngularJS straight to Angular13 is pretty straightforward and rote.

React isn't a framework. A more appropriate comparison would be Angular vs Next.js: https://www.npmtrends.com/@angular/core-vs-next But yeah, I wasn't trying to reply that React isn't still popular.

Super interesting. This would make a really good blog post, at least if you have more thoughts/info to share.

It's funny how everyone says they like React because "it's easier to learn", but employers only want to hire people with multiple years of React experience. Whereas with Angular, you just watch the 20-hour video tutorial
