However Michael Crichton imagined it would.

I find it odd that you would have commands in ~/bin but not have it be the highest priority in your PATH. I use ~/.local/bin, but would never type it because i wouldn't have bins that overlap shell commands and no other path would have priority.

Complications after surgery to remove a cancerous tumor?

Correct, the Peshitta translations of the Gospels were done in the 5th century ce. They were not closer to the Hebrew of the original as you suggested. If you like it better that's fine but it's not inherently better because it was earlier or had better understanding of original languages.

But the Peshitta is 300 years after the Septuagint and the verse you mention was written in Greek in a gospel, not the Hebrew Bible. I don't know how the translators of the Peshitta would have any special access to sayings of Jesus that predate the Gospels we have now. I don't know if there is any hard evidence that the Gospel authors had actual eye witness written sources in the language that Jesus spoke. So you have to assume that Jesus used Gamla in Aramaic and that the Gospel writer mistranslated it when writing in Greek but that the Peshitta gives special insight by retranslating it back to the ambiguous word. Then you have to make another leap to think that it is somehow possible to manipulate a rope to be the size of a thread. Sounds like a lot of histrionics to justify Abraham going to Paradise when the simpler explanation is that it's just a concept of difficulty rather than a logical word problem. This seems less plausible than the Eye of Needle gate theory which many Christian teachers often reference.

Everything is about X, because I can redefine X to mean anything.

I think you can if you self pay, but insurance only pays in certain circumstances.

It's only a problem if I have my browser set to use dark theme or system theme and my system theme is dark if I switch it to light theme. Everything looks good. So most likely he's using some kind of CSS framework that's automatically responding to the dark theme, but other styles that he's hand coded are not compatible with it

Also, you can spin up an ec2/azure/google vm pretty easy too. I do this frequently and it only costs a few bucks. Often more convenient to have it in the data center anyway.

I was sure the parent was being sarcastic, but maybe not.

So what person is running an SSH server and configuring it to use post-quantum crypto, but is using password Auth? Priorities are out-of-whack.

Not that this is a bad thing, but first start using keys, then start rotating them regularly and then worry about theoretical future attacks.

I was here about a year ago. Getting close to doing 5k 4 times a week, but the last 2k are more walk than run. I'm definitely more interested in getting endurance over speed, but both improve pretty steadily at this point. I guess once I'm doing 5k without walking I'll try to just increase pace. Pretty amazing how much better my quality of life is since exercising seriously for the first time in my late 40s.

I don't read it the way you say. The more restrictive terms are for use of services. If you use firefox, you have to agree not to use the Mozilla services for the prohibited categories, but there are many uses of the browser that are not using Mozilla services.

If you accessed graphic content using the browser, you are not violating the terms unless you put that content up on a mozilla service somewhere. The obvious issue would be some type of bookmark sync. If you bookmarked a graphic url you might violate the terms when it syncs to mozilla, but even then it would be hard to argue that you are granting access to your future self, so unless you used a bookmark sharing service provided by mozilla, I would say its a gray area. So disable bookmark sync. I typically disable all external services in my browser so this would not be relevant.

But my point is that even though you have to agree to the use policy when downloading the browser, it doesn't mean it governs all use of the browser.

IANAL

The use of the noun copy probably came from the act of copying, but both uses predated the word copyright, so that doesn't really help answer the question.

Forgery would require trying to pass off the copy as an original. As long as it is not pretending to be something it isn't, it is just a replica, not a forgery.

Any proof that the word copyright was intentionally referring to the noun instead of the verb? The British Statute of Anne in 1710, the first copyright statute, definitely referred to the act of copying a book, not some abstract concept of writing samples.

> Peter the Great waged the Great Northern War for 21 years. On the face of it, he was at war with Sweden taking something away from it… He was not taking away anything, he was returning. This is how it was. The areas around Lake Ladoga, where St Petersburg was founded. When he founded the new capital, none of the European countries recognised this territory as part of Russia; everyone recognised it as part of Sweden. However, from time immemorial, the Slavs lived there along with the Finno-Ugric peoples, and this territory was under Russia’s control. The same is true of the western direction, Narva and his first campaigns. Why would he go there? He was returning and reinforcing, that is what he was doing.

> Clearly, it fell to our lot to return and reinforce as well. And if we operate on the premise that these basic values constitute the basis of our existence, we will certainly succeed in achieving our goals.

Returning and reinforcing means restoring the USSR or Russian Empire's territory to Russia.

In case no one else noticed, Yyyy is not real. Its caused by automatic capitalization of yyyy in the HN title.

These articles both demonstrate Putin's desire to restore historical Russian boundaries. He usually references the Empire rather than the USSR.

Countdown until the nutrition influencers start pushing them.

Don't for heaven's sake, be afraid of talking nonsense! But you must pay attention to your nonsense.

I couldn't tell from the article but it seems the $225k was a settlement, and the release of all patents was additionally part of the settlement - I doubt the court could have awarded that directly. So they took $225k + the release of the patents, and I assume that the trolls would only have agreed to that if they felt the court awarded cash value would have been significantly higher.

I see the title was fixed here. The original said 30x more vitamins, but it is only beta-carotene. They created a version of lettuce that has a little more beta carotene than Kale, basically, but not as nutrient dense in any other way.

Yes - it's fun that its a bit messy, but it also seems to write the same letter in very different ways in the same session. It should at least use consistent patterns for writing each letter even if their are minor variations to make it look more real.

I can't say what MetFORMin did for me on its own since I also changed my diet and lifestyle significantly when I started it. But since starting it I lost 50 pounds, and got my blood sugar from a diabetic range into a normal range, along with many positive side effects such as increased energy, no more sleep apnea, blood pressure in normal range (was over 170/90). Again MET didn't do these things itself, but I do think it helped to achieve the weight loss and blood sugar control that would have been harder without it. I was on a low dose and never had any negative side effects, and am now off of it after 6 months and maintaining.

The word for stealing has been applied more broadly than your definition for millenia.

He was contrasting them. He was pointing out that the logic of the previous post falls apart when applying it to more noble subjects.

Same here - checked from multiple locations.

Technically "for cause" means anything other than when the position is eliminated. So usually "laid off" means that the total headcount is being reduced, or that being reallocated to other tasks, so employees that are no longer needed are laid off.

If you fire a 500 person team and intend to replace them with new people who do the same thing, it's not really a lay-off, but for legal purposes they probably have to treat it as a lay-off in terms of severance / unemployment compensation because I doubt they can document an actual cause for most of them.

I think the logic here is that the government has already subsidized them by granting privileges to use public infrastrucure that was built with tax dollars. There can only be so many wires running on the poles or under the streets so in return for that privilege, you have to provide this in return.
