You are incorrect, they did not edit his tweet, they editorialized it. Completely different, and also covered under section 230, and confirmed in court decisions up to the 9th circuit court.

They do worry, and actively moderate, which is covered under 230 and has been proven repeatedly in court, including the 9th circuit decision.

On Feb 4th, Google said there were 20 million Youtube Premium users, and I believe the latest estimates put Youtube at 2 billion users, which would be a 1% subscription rate.

I always thought I enjoyed remote work as an engineer/architect, I did it for 6 months by my own volition before coming back. I am extremely unhappy. I really miss being in the office with my coworkers and friends. I've struggled

The genetic mutations are random, the survival of a lineage based on pressures and fitness can be "directional" by the human definition.

Software engineering salaries are not exorbitant. In fact, engineers may be consistently underpaid for the value delivered. A small team can create millions for executives and shareholders. Ping pong tables etc are a sad tool for managemen

There has also never been a massive global attempt at a coronavirus vaccine. Also many coronaviruses have wildly different behaviors and mutation rates. I think the answer right now is nobody knows for sure, but it will probably take at whi

As far as I know there is pretty high confidence in vaccine development and reinfection is completely speculative and in most cases it was the same infection. Do you happen to have recent reports showing either problem?

Your point is unclear to me, but you don't prove a negative, look up Russell's teapot: "He wrote that if he were to assert, without offering proof, that a teapot, too small to be seen by telescopes, orbits the Sun somewhere i

Although NY is probably seeing an explosion in infections, this doubling is probably not a true growth in number of cases overnight, but instead representative of massively increased testing in NY.

From what I understand, it is a very cheap and easy drug to manufacture, having been designed for mass production in a previous era, as well as being a relatively simple chemical formula (some hydrocarbons, amines, a chloride?).

This is very cool. I wonder how many great ideas need something like this, between $0 outside money and VC millions to take off. Side note: Tyk is an awesome company. I've used their API gateway for a few years. Awesome open source cor

Cars in the class of Koenigseggs are actually rarely driven, things like wear and tear are often not a concern at all, what's more important is exclusivity and exotic-ness. Maintenance is something a buyer in this class doesn't ev

Amateur, at least in common American English, is virtually never used in a positive or neutral sense. It should definitely be changed in anything marketing-related.

I take most claims by experts with a grain of salt or two. If you listen to the podcast, he basically covers the fundamentals of sleep hygeine (which are not controversial) and provides references for further study. He is also very careful

Matthew Walker, PhD on sleep - part I and II on The Peter Attia Drive podcast. It was really a wake up call for sleep hygeine, and prompted me to get a sleep study, which has changed my life after getting a sleep device.

You can create metrics and alerts from filtered logs in Datadog. The process would be: log data -> add index filters -> go to live tail and create a metric on a filtered log event -> create monitor on metric. edit: also, you log 24

I highly recommend Datadog's logging platform. One important lesson I've learned in my career is never to run your own observability platform if you can afford for someone else (whose entire product is observability) do it for you

There is nats-streaming-server as well which offers true durability (via file or SQL store) and a streaming model very similar to Kafka and Pulsar. It can also run as a raft cluster or in fault tolerance mode. It still has very good perform

Normal weed "flower" is 10-30% THC. So 1 gram of weed is 100-300ish mg of THC. A single prerolled joint is usually 1 gram of flower. So this dose is around 1 joint. Edit: importantly this info is for smoked flower, edibles and con
