Although I would normally agree with an article like this because I'm not a left-tarded liberal that typically infects the world, I don't think they really made their case.

No doubt the wikipedia is left-tarded as are most institutions but it doesn't appear to me that wikimedia has captured it yet. The two appear to be operating quite independently for the most part. The article talks a lot about wikimedia funding and its pretty clear that its fully left-tarded. But there is no indication other than one editor firing that wikipedia itself is being affected directly.

Its similar to Nature. The editorial pages and blogs are filled with social justice nonsense. But the actual journals are filled with just regular nonsense..they have yet to reach peak nonsense.


I think differently. If multiple users need to query the database directly then postgres. If no one is ever going to look at the db except one person or one application then sqllite. It's an interesting question as to whether micro services should be sqllite.

Postgres is recommended because it's free, easy to maintain, install and it's has excellent query features.


Awk doesn't load things into memory. It processes one line at a time. So memory usage is basically zero. That said awk isn't that fast. I mean your looking at "query" times in the range of at least 30 minutes if not more.

Awk is imo a poor solution. I use awk all the time and I would never use it for something like this. Why not just use postgres. Its a lot more powerful, easy to setup and you get SQL which is extremely powerful. Normally I might even go with sqllite but for me 6TB is too much for sqllite.


And why is that? How does resonance alter the fact that the radiation is non ionizing and therefore not cancer causing.


The comment you're replying to isn't debating that point, I think. They're saying "you got the precise acronym wrong, but what you did write is still technically correct".


Sure. This is in every single study using surveys or statistics and yet everyone thinks the paper is making a casual argument. The paper itself actually does do that. So the whole limitations part is just ass covering for the fact that the authors are lying.

Why call it anything else. I mean it's like me writing a long paper proving that thermodynamics is flawed and then ending the paper with some acknowledgement that one of the key arguments has a logical flaw which renders the whole proof incorrect. So then the whole paper is worthless.


They do adjust the results for certain lifestyle factors, in particular exercise and smoking. They are just pointing out that they can't correct for all lifestyle factors.


It's possible that sick weak people are just too tired to want to go outside. In which case it's ill health that causes less sun exposure not the reverse.


How does your manager figure you what you are supposed to work on? What information or ability do they have that you don't? Why can't you do what they do. Ultimately there is only one thing that is missing...responsibility. You aren't responsible. Your manager is. But there isn't any reason you can't be.
