I ran into that too. Turns out that you need to add in the path you want to search when invoking the command. If it's your current working directory, use `.`


https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/...

(I'm just going on Googling here, not an expert)

From reading that link, I think it works like this:

A hazard ratio of 1.0 means "no hazard, or no difference from the control".

A hazard ratio of 1.21 means "21% more hazardous than the control"


In C64 Basic, "$" declares that a variable is a string, like this:

``` A$ = "Hello World ```

So you say this as "A-string equals Hello World"

I still pronounce "$" as string however many years later


There are many people still living who were teachers and administrators at these schools.

If we believe that this was genocide (and I think it's pretty obvious that it was), then they should be held accountable for their crimes.

The fact that they haven't been speaks volumes.

I'm one of the founders of Leanpub (https://leanpub.com), and I'm looking for something new (don't worry, Leanpub is just fine). Leanpub is a well-loved, profitable company that has paid over $8 million in royalties to authors, and I was one of the people who built it from scratch.

At Leanpub I was responsible for the book generation engine, our Markdown parser, devops and infrastructure and the main Rails app. I jumped in on the React side of things when needed. I figured out requirements, talked to customers, did support and wrote documentation.

I have more than a decade of experience in software development with a wide variety of technologies. I'm interested in finding a position where I can have an impact on the company, learn constantly and be a part of a great team. I'm looking for a remote-first or extremely remote-friendly company.


I had wondered what happened to his videos, as I hadn't seen an update in my RSS feed for a while. Turns out he's just stopped updating his blog!

I've got some videos to catch up on :)


If it is of any help, you can get his latest videos via the feed at https://youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCAL3JXZSzSm...

The channel_id can be changed to retrieve videos from other channels.


Yeah, I have both feeds in my reader, YT is the only one that gets hits anymore. Here's the YouTube RSS feed (best way to subscribe to any YT channel): https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCAL3JXZ...


There's a book coming out (advert at end of this video), which has probably sucked up his writing time / attention.



Yes, it is, thank you!


Another, more human, take on this from Barista Hustle:

TL;DR (I watched this a couple of months ago, so this is an attempt a remembering the thesis. I also don't know if I agree or not that this is a good future, but it is the future presented in the video) -- the robots are coming, which is going to give us push-button coffee. There will still be people there to give you a human experience, and they'll get to focus on that experience instead of being split between making coffee and talking to you.


Skipped the intro, watched 10 minutes on my break as a part-time barista and it's great so far.



Telus, the big phone company and ISP in British Columbia, does this in downtown Vancouver[1].

IIRC, I first heard about this in Work Like Nature[2][3]

[3]: I have a double conflict of interest here. The author is my wife, and Leanpub is my startup.
