This is so shitty, imagine taking 30% from donations to creators. It should only be 30% from the money that Patreon itself makes off of subscriptions.

One thing that I think would dramatically improve the routine screening numbers at doctors' offices would be to try and take it after the patient has been sitting down for a few minutes waiting for the doctor after the other vitals hav

Luckily, we have *.test. I’ve used that one quite a bit.

I heard they wanted to change it to just ADD in the DSM5, but it would apparently cause a lot of trouble in various statutes that specifically reference ADHD.

I don't know, erythritol is the one where they found this alarming association when they weren't even expecting it. Couple that with new research showing that the effect occurred *in every subject* and I personally think there&#x2

After all the fiascos of companies changing the license on stuff, I’m a fan of what Linux. No copyright assignment and lots of contributors so relicensing is nearly impossible.

I tried writing in this "safe" way for quite a while, but I found the number of bugs I wrote was much higher and took way longer than just using railroad-style error handling via early returns. The problem with having an explicit

Their justification is here https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp/issues/720 However, I personally disagree with them since I think it's really important to have _some_ basic reproducibility for things li

I’m not really sure how you fix it. Considering it specifically calls out being the default option on iOS, we can assume that’s going to change. However, I could also see Chrome’s market dominance challenged. Maybe they’ll be forced to some

I had to fight with numerous doctors to finally get treated for scabies despite having extremely severe symptoms and despite my partner at the time having scabies. My immune system was apparently good enough to keep it from being easily det

Maybe for a basic eye exam, but they're also checking for things like glaucoma. Glaucoma in particular is tricky because you may not notice early on, but any damage done to your eyes before treatment is permanent. In my experience, the

I think you're reading "at this time" as "never" when in reality, they want to do that separately since that sort of conversion is a huge undertaking in its own right. Additionally, separating it into two steps allo

As someone who has written Java in industry, I'd rather dynamic checks only happen when I explicitly ask for it and have everything else done statically. Bean validation works great since while the object might be incorrect temporarily

There are legitimate reasons to pull in someone after hours, but it really has to be catastrophic. I'd 100% want to be called in if I deployed something knocking out 911 service for a whole state and I was the only one with the knowled

You would probably want to use RefCell instead of Cell. It allows you to safely upgrade into a &mut using only a constant reference to RefCell, but it dynamically verifies that it's actually safe using ref counting. The ref countin

There's another reason: we need to do string stuff and we absolutely can't stall. Malloc always has some chance of stalling due to heap fragmentation. The leaf function requirement is also not necessary. You just have to make sure

You should check out Scribble which uses Racket. It has a bunch of different renderers including HTML and Markdown. However, unlike Markdown, you can easily write extensions for it in Lisp, even within the document itself. https:/&#x2

There's a debate on how unsafe/unsound this technique actually is. https://github.com/ogxd/gxhash/issues/82 I definitely see the conundrum since the dangerous code is such a huge performance gain.

Unless you explicitly set your clock speed/voltage, it's overclocking, I can almost guarantee it. There has been extreme carelessness from MOBO manufacturers on top of Intel's problems.

To be fair, I think a lot of the benefits of public transit go to people who aren't even using it. When you make it easier to go somewhere, more people will go there which is good for business at that somewhere. There are also the bene

That's only true of macros created for the purpose of reducing boilerplate code. However, the best macros actually reduce errors and improve code quality by enforcing invariants more than can be done without macros.

Actually, banks use eventually consistent systems in many cases. They'd rather let a few customers overdraw a bit than stop a customer from being able to buy something on their card when they have the funds for it.

3 models and a bunch of sizes as well. The Giant Propel Advanced SL 0 has 6 different size options. Even for cheap bikes, it’s common to have a small, medium, and large frame size. As far as restricting technology, stopping at 70s tech seem

The trouble is that people have different preferences for different equipment and by mandating one particular bike, you disadvantage a lot people based on who does better on a particular bike and aren't judging people solely based on w

The first two require a lot more effort in video editing than creating a forum post. Plus, it’s just going to be digested and regurgitated for the masses by people much better at communicating technical information.

Interesting, I hadn’t heard about the Pentium overlocking issues. My theory on the current issue that running chips for long periods of time at 100C is not good for chip longevity, but voltages could also be an issue. I came up with this th

I’m not even sure Microsoft could actually restrict 3rd party code running in kernel mode like that from a legal perspective. There are a certain requirements about documenting interfaces in Windows from the 90s antitrust stuff.

One potential positive is that it may help foster actual cooperation between the parties when a new problem arises that really needs some solution not covered by existing law instead of just relying on the executive to fix things. Once you

Yes, sleeves weren't much of a thing until the 2000s and they do seem to make a big difference in my experience.

The other thing I don't like about it is that many cards will be flipped upside down which is very annoying for games like MTG.
