They don't get along with any animals, and the problem starts well before they're butcher weight. It's not uncommon for an entire hen house to wind up murdered if you don't sex your chickens.

McDonald's was negligent. The coffee was hot enough to cause immediate lasting damage, having it that hot didn't benefit any party involved, reducing the temperature would have fixed the problem, been as simple as turning a knob,

Depending on the mass they may have been able to remove it manually. A colleague used to use paperclips to study the field lines, and those had very little force.

That's mostly true, but we're still finding new and interesting ways MRIs can kill people. E.g., non-magnetic metals are often safe, bit there was that guy who had his brain cooked as a spinal implant was the wrong length and focu

If we're considering current-gen LLMs, approximately zero. They're bad at this sort of thing even with a human in the loop.

John Daly Blvd onto Skyline southbound, where the two left turn lanes continue into two highway lanes.

Quite certain. The two left lanes can both turn left, and the middle lane can also go straight. It's well marked (though a bit tight if you try to take it fast). https://maps.app.goo.gl/n2kUUHmDKaSURFqx9

Waymo came close with me. There were two left turn lanes, and it migrated from the inner one to the outer one in the middle of the turn without a blinker while I was next to it. It got lucky that I'm young and wasn't too tired and

The whole "problem" is that pointers are being compared when people expect value semantics. What, exactly, do you mean?

The first third of this seems to just be complaining that it's not obvious when two objects are actually the same object, and that if you mistake identity-related operators for other operators then you'll have a bad day. That'

You can pay with cash. You usually can't stay without a credit card. Even debit often doesn't suffice.

The big problem is the power imbalance. There's a reason they start your stay by putting a hold on a credit card. And even if you could charge them, they can afford a legal battle better than you.

Thank so much Mr. Roberts. The status quo looks dangerous in the US even for born-and-raised citizens. With ICE targeting people based on skin color, what should a citizen do to protect themselves?

The aquaducts and viae were built block by block too, but they're, I hope we agree, clearly not buildings. In my mind at least, the pyramids are too close to not having an inside relative to how big the outside is -- like how you would

A pyramid stretches the limits of what it means to be a "building" though. I don't know that it's a crazy thing to ignore it.

One flaw I've seen in "Parse, Don't Validate" as it pertains to real codebases is that you end up with a combinatorial prolieration of types. E.g., requiring that a string be base64, have a certain fixed length, and be p

The usual trick is to use domain-specific knowledge to translate that asymmetry to uniformity. E.g.: Suppose the data has high-order structure but is locally uniform (very common, comes about because of noise-inducing processes). Compute an
