This has nothing to do with "liking" or appeals to emotion. The fact is that paper does not have a control and the methods are not sophisticated enough to determine causation. "The other citation from the second link seems to

This does not question all knowledge. Bacteremia and cardiac disease have been linked for years (see upvoted comment above), which is why these studies were done in the first place. This study isn't ground breaking , it's extendi

Spontaneous mutations? Which no matter how much you carve out modifiable risk factors will always be a thing. At least 5% of cervical cancers are HPV negative, so it's not even all the uncommon (not I would call "vast, vast"

POSIX AIO on “Linux” is implemented in glibc with userland threads using regular blocking syscalls behind the scenes. It basically works properly, it just doesn’t gain any potential efficiency benefits, it adds avoidable overhead, prone to

It wasn’t even discovered until 1997, so no that wasn’t exactly early in the Pentium lifecycle at all. There were multiple models and millions of devices affected.

It does not stress the liver at recommended doses. Plenty of people get frequent headaches and other aches that have no other severe stuff going on, or really anything that needs to be treated more than symptomatically. Scheduled tylenol is

Tylenol itself is not toxic to the liver, the metabolite of glucuronidation is what is toxic. Which means paradoxically impaired liver function can actually reduce the effective toxicity of Tylenol.

by epcoa 1y ago
Without chronic ingestion of medications that compete for glucuronidation or certain CYP450 inducers like antiepileptics, FOUR GRAMS even as a single dose is virtually impossible to cause any harm. One gram every 2 hours is 12 grams which i

Mass produced dual layer DVDs came out early on around late 1997 (maybe confusing with DVD recordable?), it’s not like the spec changed. There were some low cost distributors that couldn’t afford the equipment but the majors were stamping e

Because it is way more dangerous. Guaranteed liver damage is nonsense. Aspirin and other non selective NSAIDs are much more likely to cause GI bleeding, kidney and heart problems. An aspirin here or there is probably fine but multiple day d

ibuprofen and similar are also much more likely to destroy your kidneys as well and exacerbate heart disease. Intermittent regular dose use is unlikely to cause kidney harm but people get in trouble in two ways: chronic extended use of high

Just to offer an alternate perspective. While technically a PIC12 is a computer since it has I/O, tiny storage, a PC and an ALU - it’s hard to even think of it in the same category as what most think of as a computer. IMHO the takeaway

Correct, divide by zero is one of the original five defined IEEE754-1985 exception. But the default behavior then and now is to produce that defined result mentioned and continue execution with a flag set ("default non-stop"). Fur

If dividing by zero has a well defined result that doesn’t abort execution what exactly does “can’t” even mean? Operations on those sentinel values are also defined. This can affect when checking needs to be done in optimized code.

Nobody calls them that in most places in the US, but towns and villages usually have “highway departments” and they’re not the ones managing the interstates and state highways.

They’re still county highways, at least according to the person interviewed in the article. It’s even called the Wisconsin County Highway Association.

While not going to argue that vim is niche, I don’t think it is. StackExchange surveys are likely highly unrepresentative and lack external validity. I do not believe 40% of developers use vim based on such an unvalidated and likely biased
