try it with something more "obscure" like e.g. creating an OPC/Ua Server from scratch.

It fails spectacularly - the code wont even compile and there are many things missing to get a working solution.

probably not a good paper ...

has been criticised by several sources

one interesting comment :

Only about 65% of Japanese people have received 3 doses.

Cancer patients are more likely to receive 3 or more doses than the average person since they have more contact with the healthcare system.

Who’s most likely to die of cancer? Cancer patients.

There’s your correlation...

"... when examining only those who passed the exam (i.e. licensed or license-pending attorneys), GPT-4’s performance is estimated to drop to ∼48th percentile overall, and ∼15th percentile on essays ..."

so this means that ChatGPT is right in the middle of the performance of licensed or license-pending attorneys.

and for essays its still better than 15 percent of the humans.

Still quite impressive ...

from their website ".... can now enjoy the milestone innovations of the 11 Alexandria Pro edition.."

which means that you cannot use "Client-Server" databases (Mysql, Postgres, etc.), only localhost access is supported.

you can use ZeosLib etc. but its just one more hurdle to take.

apparently based on very flawed arguments

according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Music

there are lots of countries where you can not buy DRM free music from amazon (afaiu what the OP was referring to)

so the problem is how to find a shop where you can buy your super rare tracks ...

(i assume some will also be bootlegs or other fan-made recordings - you wont find those in a shop)

tldr version:

Principles are like rules:

you are either compliant or you are not. This gives rise to “bounded sets” of rule-followers and rule-enforcers rather than “centred sets” of people with shared values.2

Instead, I started thinking about properties:

qualities or characteristics of code rather than rules to follow.

Properties define a goal or centre to move towards. Your code is only closer to or further from the centre, and there is always a clear direction of travel.

.....

and then he gives a list of five properties that good architectures can aim for.

if you look at this tweet

..." The series in which this is published does not peer-review, and contains all of the last authors' work... ... that major papers are omitted in this "meta-analysis" "

So no peer-review,

written in a journal that has close ties to one of the authors

and omitted major papers that should have been included.

zettlr is also missing - opensource and really nice (also goog for zettelkasten)

https://github.com/Zettlr/Zettlr

at least in 2020 suicides in the US actually decreased ..

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2778234

15 years after Scrum was invented and 10 years after the Agile Manifesto someone writes such an article ?

I agree that knowledge about Agile was not widespread enough in 2011, but this reads like something from the early 90s.

Missing from the list is Zettlr https://zettlr.com/ which is opensource, looks very nice and is built for the Zettelkasten method and has LaTeX integration.

Was quite useful for some university classes.

I agree about the insane pricing.

If you want to use the Prof. version and still have DB-access then there exist some open source components like https://sourceforge.net/projects/zeoslib/

OTOH my 20-year project is still trucking along using D2010 and Dbisam as the DB-layer...

am i the only one expecting the article to be about Service oriented Architecture ? :-)

according to Tyler Black (1) who compiled all official numbers he could find there is no evidence of an increase in suicides for the US

https://twitter.com/tylerblack32/status/1357765466601775106

1) MD, Suicidologist, emergency psychiatrist and pharmacologist

I always thought that we still use a trie or (to save memory) ternary search trees for that..

here is some commentary from an epidemiologist https://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1316511734115385344

fyi from the website :

Since version 9.0 released in January 2020, SageMath is using Python 3.

finally : major Delphi Code Insight improvements using an separate LSP service.

HighDPI should work also better now (hopefully, they promised that already)

some new language features - custom managed records

and a breaking change (for the mobile editions) - unified memory mangement (aka no more ARC)

and lots of cross-platform and mobile updates which i dont use ..

from the article :

To calculate excess deaths, the FT has compared deaths from _all causes_ in the weeks of a location’s outbreak in March and April 2020 to the average for the same period between 2015 and 2019.

so they are not counting only coronavirus related deaths but all

just heard this on https://peterattiamd.com/peterhotez/

apparently Dr.Hotez has a Sars-1 candidate vaccine antigen which could be repurposed for Covid-19,

https://grantome.com/grant/NIH/R01-AI098775-03S1

but they don't have funding to move it to clinical trials ..

sorry but remote database = postgres, mysql (or any relational db server)

that is ridiculous in 2020

and you only get that with the "enterprise edition"

"professional" only gets you embeded and localhost DB ?!?

I still have my old separate Firedac licence for an old project i support, but anybody new coming to this mess will just have a good lough and move on.

maybe something like https://pi-hole.net and/or some firewall rules could be used to stop all the offending traffic ?

Sounds easier than cutting physical lines..

Anybody using this and having success ?

was expecting to see a "april fools" banner to pop out any second during the segment (for the look, not the specs which seem quite interesting though (very) pricey)

If inside-out tracking is ok then why not go WMR -

the new HP Reverb sounds actually nice ..

2160 x 2160 px per eye - 114 FOV 90Hz LCD

but the price is also high ~599$

unfortunately "Enterprise DBs" means also Postgresql, Mysql, SQL Server etc. (anything Client/Server)

you can probably just use another Framework like (free) ZeosDB (http://zeoslib.sourceforge.net/)

or some paid ones e.g. from Devart (https://www.devart.com/dac.html)

but still, its frustrating to have to use something else for such basic functionality ...

Sorry (even as i am tempted to do this quiz), but ...

<paranoia mode on>

Is this sponsored by (the defunct) Cambridge Analytica or some similar entity ?

Isn't this exactly how many of those companies operate ?
