I think you just stumbled upon a one-off. I've lived here my entire adult life and never encountered this.

I got hayfever on my 3rd year of living here, and it seems like quite a common pattern among immigrants I've noticed. I have hayfever back in the UK too, but I guess I didn't have a Cedar allergy - so it took time to develop.

Idiotic and completely untrue statement. You get your waist and height measured as part of your routine health examination every year since you become a worker. Eyes, hearing, etc are also included. Its just your body's "metrics&q

While it's true a lot of people (particularly white Americans who've never experienced being a minority) will complain about minor things like just being treated differently, there are some obvious issues like housing discriminati

I left the UK after graduating at 21, fully intending to come back within a couple of years. Its weird watching it from the outside for 10 years waiting for a "good time" to move back and realizing that time isn't coming more

The variance for most traits is higher within races than it is between them. I assume OPs point is the division into categories "black, white, asian, latino" is arbitrary, and you could easily reduce or add more groups as you see

Does that have any legal basis? It sounds a lot like what Google did for their Java engine, which essentially rewrote the entire engine with the same APIs, while referencing the original source code. Didn't the courts decide it was fin

A lot of people dislike LLMs and generative AI (fairly) and are reflexively trying to reach for tools in our legal framework, claiming it's obviously already illegal. I don't think this is going to work. Generative AI is quite obv

I used to be one of these and honestly I'm so tired of Google as a company lately I'm really considering jumping over to Apple's ecosystem. Google just have an incredibly weak product team, across both hardware and software.

Only slightly related, I have a really bad thing with dental dams, clamps, and anything blocking my mouth - I get really paranoid im going to choke and die - and start overthinking swallowing my saliva and freaking out. Especially taking th

I thought after you take estrogen long enough you don't have to take t blockers or fin anyway? Once your body see's you have enough sex hormone doesn't it naturally stop T, even if the hormone is estrogen? (Sorry for the stup

Sorry to rant a little, but as someone who grew up with HIV in the family, this odd pressure against people who might be hesitant to sleep with someone U=U always feels uncomfortable and manipulative to me. I see it a lot around the interne

I wonder to what extent is hallucination a result of a "must answer" bias? When sampling data all over the internet, your data set only represents people who did write, did respond to questions - with no representation of what

Im guessing they used all those credits to set up those instances, but never took the extra step to add log ingestion or any kind of monitoring. Unique constraint violations peaking should have at least sent some kind of mail or slack notif

Can you give an example of this? Laravel is very modular - you don't have to use it all if you want to call out to something more complex.

I've seen this take quite a lot around Twitter recently, which is confusing to me. Do you read Her as a "AI assistants are bad" story? I thought it was a much more subtle exploration of what our world would be like if such th

I feel like the pacing was awful, and especially as its Netflix, I don't even trust they'll finish it. I really dug all the SF stuff, but the human drama aspect of it really ate a lot of time. (spoilers) - So much time was spent

The article touches on this at the end, but every time I've tried to jump over to a dumbphone, I've always been stopped by one thing - lack of messenger services. Maybe in America where these messenger apps are less prevalent its

Ironically this blog feels like it was written by an SEO bot. There's basically no meat to what it's saying and spends each paragraph rephrasing the title without adding anything.

That's not true though because most decision and execution processes in Japan are daisy chained. One person can't just make you send a tonne of money because you'd normally have to forward it onto someone else, who clears it

The regulation allows for apple to still do malware scanning and blocking on apps installed even by third party stores. Google also does the same thing, this point is a nothingburger. The human review part of the app store review does nothi

Crazily enough, the domain shown under the ad on google ads isn't automatically pulled. You can set it manually. Attackers exploit this by first using a genuine domain to get the ad approved, and then altering the info after the campai

Unless the battery is seriously improved I wouldn't pay it much mind. The pixel watch is one of my biggest purchase regrets and basically just sits off on my arm as an accessory.

"decentralized" isnt necessary to a block chain. However when people say "block chain" in everyday use, they're usually talking about that type. It's a case where the everyday use of a word is different to the

I'm wondering the same thing too. I have tried multiple monitor setups dozens of times now, but always end up coming back to a single display. I can't imagine having a tonne of widgets floating around my work space in 3D is going

Just a note on the amendment at the end: Storing hashes of passwords is the industry standard - but on the server side, not on the client. Even if some other key is derived from the original password, in the end that thing is going to hav

Honestly though, with no theory of mind or consciousness you have no way to assert in either direction. To borrow the religion analogy, there's the opposite fallacy of claiming the negative case "I know for a fact God isn't r

I mean we can only speak for our own bubbles. I live in Tokyo and most of my friends (20s) have some kind of automation in their apartments, mostly using Alexa or Google Home. Again, just another bubble, but its not all Silicon Valley.
