Iron supplements are often used, so it would be interesting to know if they also might be significant risk factors.

TypeScript can be great, but in practice I have seen teams lean on it as a way of taming data models that are overly complex and changing at rates that strain the ability of developers to keep up. Sometimes it might more sense to control c

Statins are a good comparison because most end their use after one or two years because of the side effects.

He had a great life. Is dying at 86 really unexpected or sad? It seems to me like an expected end. Exactly how long should he live for his passing to be normalized?

That argument collapses pretty quickly. Attempts to build Communist nations failed so completely from the start that all involved high levels of confiscation of property and forced employment and work rules which closely resemble slavery.

Meta analysis because scraping a bunch of studies about mental health is a robust way of understanding risk? This is really shameless and implies the writers have no connection with children who use social media.

Going from pregeometry to spacetime as information with observer participation might in ways relate to the law of increasing functional complexity. What if observers start as other particles but join together to iterate in increasingly lar

Wow, a bunch of neg votes because I tried to summarize my experience. I should just hide instead? Sure, I may have misunderstood that part. So not a dev. Which means we have what? Get excited about a web site that implements a cool idea.

Really like them in general and did my best to correctly submit information about media in my collection. Then everything went bad in an unexpected way. I was using Firefox on a Mac to interact with the site. Apparently they added a bunch

How about "Could sports betting be banned?" People are strongly motivated to do this and often spontaneously form networks to share bets. How exactly would the state put a stop to this? Even with really thorough access to all f

This fits well with some of what Ray Dalio has been saying. The are business cycles and also cycles of those business cycles. At this time we appear to be in a long term transition downward following a long period of relatively strong ups

Typically building from source is done to include optional components such as with the ./configure --with-pydebug option. With many projects make doc is an option because so many prefer to skip that part of the build in favor of onlin

It's happening. Cameras everywhere all the time. No more anonymity in public soon. Hopefully this will improve behavior generally, though at possibly great cost.

The prices asked were way too high. Several people tried to make this work but the cost for the most basic usage would be huge. They basically slammed the door shut.

These numbers are calculated, at least initially, as statistical constructions based on trends. That means that when markets changes abruptly, such as in the most recent months, the actual job numbers fall much farther than predictions.

These numbers are calculated with a lot of statistical inference. That means, among other things, that the numbers calculated at the start of a downturn end up being way off because the markets change quicker than calculations of trends.

This is misunderstanding basic elements of marketing. Early microwaves were a failure because they were huge and expensive machines promoted for institutional use. It was only after much study that smaller, cheaper, and easier to use mode

This argument is limited to use of CCS to support fossil fuel use. Unrelated projects such as using algae to sequester atmospheric carbon as are being tried in Israel and South Africa are showing great promise. It is unfortunate that oil

Opinions about automated driving systems vary. Just from my own experience doing business all around San Francisco I have seen at least a half dozen instances of Waymo vehicles making unsafe maneuvers. Responders have told me and local gove

Windows 11 is an insane resource pig, so for the short to medium term stick with Windows 10 by using modest hardware. This approach can save money and frustration. Windows 10 is still pretty bad and full of spyware features, though.
