Isn't this endemic in beaches throught the country? I grew up in NY and one summer job I had was testing beaches for bacteria levels. Most beaches were one rainy day away from being closed down, and they were certainly nowhere near Mex

Ah, fair. Sorry, I bet I missed the context.

Hmm, that doesn't really seem fair. That's _a_ problem, and an incredibly difficult one. There are several other problems though, with git and other contemporaries that one could try to usefully solve.

Is git conflict resolution "intuitive and easy to use not just for programmers, but also for lawyers and artists"? Several programmers I know can barely manage it. I think we might be setting our bar a little high here.

People are always terrified of these microbes that are millions or billions of years out of context. It's like being scared that a trout is going to beat you in a foot race, when you're racing tigers every day. The things to be sc

I do the same on mobile, not sure I noticed any reason it's worse there.

I noticed that as well, the fix for me is pretty easy: just create the account in bitwarder first and then autofill it in the actual account creation page. No extra work, and becomes habit quite quickly.

There's no leads to follow that could reasonably get us there. What's the point spending time on it? NASA does engineering, not scifi.

That's not to mention delays in work too. Every time there's a "quenching" event at the LHC, that's days/weeks/months fixing everything and getting it back down to temp. I seem to recall they had to shut d

Not on a single magnet though, it has to be a shaped array.

The ingredients and tools aren't exotic, but chemistry is still a pain in the ass.

Every time Kingdom Hearts comes up, I have the same thought.

They left off some qualifiers. According to wikipedia, it's applicable to a continuous function mapping a nonempty compact convex set to itself. Which ends up making a lot more sense to me.

Ah, I see. I mean, the authors don't terribly seem to be worried about that. I thought we were talking about better for society or something.

> In theory you should privately invite someone to replicate your work, then publish it if the replication works. You'd probably get scooped though, so you have no choice but to arxiv it immediately. What are we optimising for here?

He's still being prosecuted for the more serious crimes. Prosecutors pick and choose which things to actually try to make stick all the time, it's basically their job.

I mean it's not even the same basic elements. How much more of a dramatic change were you thinking?

It's an easy thing to attempt to replicate, and it's probably _the_ single biggest goal in a particular field of science in at least decades. It's impossible that at least some people didn't drop everything to try it.

Oh I see. Yeah, unless the fines for that were going to be several billion, sounds like an insane reason to buy Twitter.

> You do need to buy Twitter to avoid running afoul of the SEC. Huh?

Less of a solid than he was already doing by turning it into a haven for extremist right-wingers.

The graphs and diagrams are more useful because they show what variables the tilt depends on, ie how to reduce the tilt if you want to.

Yeah, that's a good point. Mueller investigated only the dumbest possible theory really. And then what crimes he did find for Trump, he refused to state right out on the even dumber theory that the President is above the law.

Durham had years and his only goal was to discredit the investigation. All he came up with was bullshit. That's more than evidence of absense. It's not absolute proof that everything was above board, but it's very suggestive.
