I had intestinal bleeding after double ibuprofen dosage over several weeks for back pain. Definitely watch out for any prolonged and heavy use of NSAIDs.

It's amazing these projects began over 50 years ago in 1972 when 8-track tapes still dominated cassettes for music delivery.

Am I the only one who would pay micro transaction fees to read specific high quality articles? I guess so since so many companies just died instead of trying that model.

From the headline this also seems to violate the CCPA in California.

So Proton is like Debian, Proton Next is like Debian Testing, and Proton Experimental is like Debian Sid. Got it, thanks!

Maybe I am missing something, but isn't pushing this way usually possible by one-time BillPay?

When both the government and the advertising companies have an aligned incentive to spy on us all, Why would the government pass either privacy or advertising laws?

Thanks for the perspective. The closest western way of thinking to be is, "It is not the about the destination but the journey". The whole concept also reminds me of Eckhart Tolle's "Life is the dancer and you are the dance?", which is a very different way of thinking about yourself as the changing and moving thing instead of a fixed person.

New comment by cybersol in "Implementation plan for speeding up CPython"

The people who made psycho decided they needed a JIT to really make Python much faster. So they created PyPy and developed it instead.

The terms are often the same, but the percentage is more like 1% than 0.1%. Also the easy way up the management chain is to be a warm body in a rapidly growing company.

New comment by cybersol in "Coming to Chrome: a new way to use tabs"

cybersol — Thu, 14 May 2020 10:00:38 +0000

I have a dream. What I really want was likely not possible when tabs were invented, but should be now.

I want least recently used tabs to automatically fade away, but still be fully known and searchable the way that 'search my computer' or 'google search' works. With search filters like last hour/day/week/month. And it seems like history should be kept per tab, not altogether.

This way I keep a minimal-to-medium number of active tabs, but have all those magical things-to-do, pseudo-bookmarks, or other things that cause open tabs to grow and grow available via a quick search interface, auto-magically.

The follow-up blog she linked at the bottom is even better at describing the mindset of a technical leader, which will take you far in any organization no matter what your current title is.

Parking spaces at both at home and work can easily be more than that in a major city. That is more limiting than even the car costs.

On the other hand, as someone who reads other peoples code just as my as I write my own, maybe by the time your lambda is many lines it should have its own name. And maybe the name should be really informative about what the function does.
