Personally, I found this book very useful and straightforward. It is written by the creators of Tailwind CSS.

For me, the main takeaway is something we all already know: that even though the CFR is low in younger healthy people, the hospitalisation rate is extremely high, and that's been one of the most important factors in this pandemic.

It's nice to finally see the hospitalisation risk presented clearly.

Unfortunately the number of ECMO machines is far cry away from what is required for this to work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracorporeal_membrane_oxygen...

Even if you manage to double or triple capacity unfortunately it is no match to the exponential growth.

I know someone that was on QA at a major international horn manufacturer, the minimum activation cycles before failure for India were ~10x-50x higher than for other markets.

The overhand [1] and double overhand are quite different knots. Actually, since you specify that you mean the "Euro Death Knot", it is actually a "flat overhand bend" [2].

The parent's statement is not false, it's just that one must be precise about naming, because casual use leads to incorrect assumptions by others.

Other than that, yes, you are correct.

Windy.com allows you to compare models, which varies based on the region you have zoomed in to.

This is really handy as national models can be much better for short-term and higher resolution predictions.

It has the widest range of models freely available that I'm aware of, including the commercial ECMWF model.

The article's author, Atul Gawande, has written four books. So far I've only read _The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right_ and have been applying it to various aspects of work and life (travel packing checklist, Engineering team runbooks, etc). I would strongly recommend it.

All his other books are on my "to read" list...

I would put it down to Nudge theory:

Dressing up as traffic signs might become a thing...

Short answer: Yes, it is possible.

Source: It's exactly what I do (0.6 FTE job + part-time MSc).

From personal experience, I would say it's harder to find something part-time up front. Telling your current employer that you want to reduce your hours, for the reasons you describe, is what worked for me. You need to be in a position where they are happy with your work, and you need to clear any doubts about this change having any negative effect on your team.

From my perspective, being part-time greatly discourages me from micro-managing: I just don't have the free time that might lead me down that negative path.

Finally, my employer gets way more than 0.6 FTE of work from me (and I don't do extra hours). IMO they get more "bang for their buck": I concentrate on what's important, and work through things more efficiently.

It doesn't say anything about token rotation and lifetime. Is there any information directly from Grammarly?

How long are those tokens valid for?

Did they invalidate all existing tokens?

Fun to connect the dots and see it posted here on HN :)

I would always recommend _Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?_ by _Frans de Waal_, it was a thoroughly enjoyable and enlightening read.

There's a decent amount of work that's been done already in this area, see [1] and follow up work by the same authors for a good example. While the approach is "cool" there are still many unanswered questions of what exactly it tells us about the brain. See [2], a critical review of [1], for an indication of what I mean.

- [1] http://www.jneurosci.org/content/35/27/10005 - [2] http://www.jneurosci.org/content/35/48/15769

And the consensus in the Neuroscience community, from what I understand, is that this is two things (1) a great feat of engineering and (2) a great demonstration of the brain's ability to learn and adapt.

I think you vastly underestimate the creative problem solving skills that even "unskilled" humans are capable of, which is required to cut hair.

Having recently read "Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?" [1] by the brilliant primatologist Frans de Waal, the whole introductory paragraph reeks of the "humans only" dogma.

Even the link to the Wikipedia article directly contradicts the statement of humans being the only species to bury their dead.

How counter-intuitive it is: so many aspects of evolution we accept as continuum with shared phenotypes (and extended phenotypes) all the way through, yet when it comes to our intelligence and specialness, we forget all of this.

There does seem to be an RSS feed: http://distill.pub/rss.xml Although it is not advertised on the website (I did view-source to find it).

Should you plug that in to IFTTT, Zapier, or something to that extent, you hopefully then have a weekly feed.

Though I do agree, an option to signup to updates directly on the website would be much better ;)

We have a stable backend written in Haskell, with a dash of Java for manipulating PDFs. The front-end is written in Javascript, mostly using React.

We need someone with a strong Haskell background to help maintain and expand our Haskell backend, find and fix performance problems, and help us maintain our Haskell packages (e.g. hpqtypes, happstack-static-routing, consumers). We are looking for someone who is in touch with the Haskell ecosystem and can make decisions as to what the best tools to use are, or to develop them when deemed necessary.
