The 1-indexed arrays can sometimes be nice, but I've run into bugs so many times when translating the code into a language with 0-indexed arrays.

Not 100% sure, but I think the access to contacts is so that you can split ride fares with other people.

Yes, they're both text editors, but they're completely different classes of text editors. MS Word is also a text editor, but it would be ridiculous to fault it for not having a CLI. It's nice that Emacs and Vim have GUI modes, but I doubt they're the primary way users use those editors. Emacs/Vim and VS Code/Sublime/Atom fulfill different needs and preferences.

I'm curious about your answer to this: would you argue that MS should combine Word and VS Code into one text editor?

You're asking for VS Code to be a completely different product. VS Code is a GUI text editor like Sublime and Atom. There's no reason for it to run in a terminal. Vim and Emacs are classical CLI based text editors. Are you asking for an alternative to those?

You're still missing the point. Users who know little to nothing about the law NC passed will be made aware of the issue. Some of those people will take action against the lawmakers and/or people that support the law. Overall awareness of the issue will rise and hopefully cause a real discussion.

Really? I haven't found that to be the case. Everything that I've set to specific privacy groups (me only, friends, etc) has stayed the same.

Technically it's not holography, but using the term is the simplest way to convey the idea to the average person. What would you suggest calling it instead?

That's also true for most major breakthroughs like this one.

That's exactly the problem the parent comment suggests we focus on fixing. Once a library is published, npm shouldn't allow anyone to use that name even if the library is pulled.

I think you're seriously overstating the issues with Xcode. There are bugs and annoyances, but things have gotten better over the years. It's not as great as Visual Studio, but it's far from horrible. Remember, we live in a world with Eclipse.

I'm studying for these boards right now, and these equations do show up. However, it's not the curriculum (at least not at my school) pushing the rote memorization of drugs, side effects, contraindications, microbes, etc. It's the board exams. A huge component of the exams is raw memorization of random facts that have no relation to anything (did you know rifampin makes your tears turn orange?). Unfortunately, there seems to be no incentive for the board examiners to change their exam.

That's not how type 2 works. The resistance is developed for unknown reasons and it continues to build over time. For a while, your body can compensate by producing more insulin to overcome the insulin resistance of your cells. You don't become symptomatic until your cells are almost completely insulin resistant. Your pancreas will continue to make insulin at crazy high rates, but eventually the cells that make insulin will die off (presumably from hyperactivity). This is the point at which type 2 diabetics need insulin.

As far as cutting sugar out of your blood - you can't. Your body tries to maintain 80-110 mg/dL of sugar in your blood. You NEED sugar. It's energy. In fact, sugar is the ONLY energy source your brain can use. The problem is when you're a diabetic, your body's cells can't take that sugar out of the blood to use it for energy. That's when you try to minimize your sugar intake, because if you don't, you can do irreversible damage to your nerves and vasculature.

Hell, I'm only in my second year of med school in the US, and I wouldn't recommend young people go into this profession.

You'd rather share your phone number or home address than your email address?
