    1. As the lead agency for anti-corruption treaty reporting, the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs and Governance coordinated this review cycle.

      With Gail Texiera1 at the helm.

    1. There’s a family of increasingly sophisticated sequential models that puts us on a steady climb to the attention model and transformers, the core of today’s LLMs.

      So, word2vec is /not/ the state of the art -- at least, not anymore, as of this article's writing.

    2. adequately capture the reader’s preferences

      Do the Dimensions of our space correlate to features? This seems counter intuititive, since you always generate the same number of dimensions, don't you?

    3. pre-calculate the embeddings for your targets

      Does this imply that you're calculating an embedding for your search term?

    1. Depending on the algorithm of choice (Continuous Bag-of-Words or Skip-gram), the center and context words may work as inputs and labels, respectively, or vice versa

      I wonder if this choice, of whether the context word, or center word, decides what your search query will match against.

    1. The core idea of embeddings is to represent a block of text as a point in space (specifically, a vector in high dimensional space).

      You're representing a block of text as a point on an n-dimensional space -- like a point point on a two dimensional chart. In practice, you'd have hundreds, or a couple thousand, dimensions, instead of just two.

    2. The embedding function (which I took from one of their cookbooks) takes in a text block and outputs a vector.

      Can I build my own embeddings function?

    3. Removed Obsidian backlinks

      I wonder if I can make mine do something useful with these links.

    1. the only way we can figure out what the system is is if everybody says what they did

      The way Mandela, and Tutu, did this was via the TRC1.

    1. In part the phrase refers to Eichmann's deportment at the trial as the man displayed neither guilt for his actions nor hatred for those trying him, claiming he bore no responsibility because he was simply "doing his job." ("He did his 'duty'...; he not only obeyed 'orders,' he also obeyed the 'law.'")

      Perhaps, it is the system itself that is evil. This evokes thoughts of Mandella treating those guilty of corruption in his new South Africa not as perpetrators, but as victims, of a system that allowed corruption to prevail. See Dave Chapelle's "The Bird Revelation", around the 22nd minute, for the only time I've heard this information mentioned.

    1. 5.x is the leading edge of Linux kernel development; the kernel uses a rolling development model which is continually integrating major changes

      This implies even more supported versions than six. The official documentation says "several" are supported at any given time1.

    2. Every 5.x release is a major kernel release with new features, internal API changes, and more

      Does this mean the linux kernel supports a maximum of six versions at a time?

    1. several main categories into which kernel releases may fall

      Are these categories analogous to branches?

  3. May 2025
    1. These groups should be responsible for respectively 40-70%, 10-35% and 20-40% of the calories in your diet

      So 45/35/20 would be really high protein with almost no fat. Interesting. If you keep this in mind, you can probably ensure every meal meats your macronutrient goals.

    2. red blood cells, the brain and nerve cells can only use glucose as energy source

      You literally cannot function without carbs -- hence the brain fog, headaches, and nausea, caused by ketosis1.

    3. the main energy deliverers in our diet.

      So, not the only energy deliverers!

    4. the thermic effect of food (TEF) is the energy required for disposal, digestion and absorption of the food consumed

      I think protein requires more calories for digestion.

    5. the amount of energy required to keep your body functioning when it is at complete rest, is called the basal metabolic rate (BMR)

      How can one calculate one's BMR?

    6. the energy will be stored in the form of body mass

      Is unused energy not always stored as fat?

    7. gram of carbohydrate and protein both yield 4 calories, while a gram of fat yields 9!

      Fat is expensive! What does a gram of carbohydrates yield?

    8. he energy in food is delivered by macronutrients

      Macronutrients themselves provide a certain number of calories.

    1. Carbohydrates are divided between simple carbs (monosaccharides and disaccharides) and complex carbs (polysaccharides). [1, 23]

      Why does this difference matter? Because complex carbs can leave you feeling fuller, longer1.

    1. The hyoid bone, a U-shaped bone located at the base of the tongue, and the thyroid cartilage, part of the larynx or voice box, still retained a significant amount of surrounding soft tissue and muscle.

      What does this imply? That it wasn't damaged? Would it have been damaged in the case of a drowning?

    1. raise Exception(f"Not a Git repository {path}")
    2. responsible for processing and validating them before executing the actual command.

      I believe argparse can validate the input to each command, with some tinkering.

    3. We also need sys to access the actual command-line arguments (in sys.argv):

      Doesn't argparse take care of this?

    1. Based on the Markov Rule

      What is the markov rule?

    2. a strong momentum that persisted during the day would continue even when the markets were closed and not being traded

      Where do you get that idea?

    1. Mr. Maduro has rejected the court’s jurisdiction over the issue.

      Very interesting; I suspect his tone would change, were they to rule in his favor.

    2. Nicolás Maduro, analysts say, is seeking to legitimize his rule abroad and also within his deeply dissatisfied nation, where the military’s loyalty is reportedly fraying

      Why is the military's loyalty wavering?

    1. values 111 when the return is positive (and significant), −1−1-1 when negative, or 000 when the return after two days is roughly around zero

      Just a classification problem, then

    2. In supervised machine learning, we try to learn a function that maps input feature vectors (independent variables) into known output values (dependent variable):
    1. This is the ab muscle that will most likely be (erroneously) taking over the action when you first try to brace/do deadbugs

      These are the muscles I'm using right now.

    1. The second charge alleges that  between the same period and at the said location the businessman conspired with other persons offered to abstain from publishing defamatory libel against Afras Mohamed with a view to extort the sum $150,000 from Mohamed.

      Did Bess offer some people money to abstain from publishing this libel? Or did he threaten those who abstained?

    2. Bess was implicated by two reporters, who were on September 16, caught in a sting-operation attempting to extort money from an auto dealer for the removal of a ‘news story’ published on a Facebook page dubbed Guyana News Network (GNN).

      I think I recall hearing about this. I am having trouble recalling the names of the "reporters".

    1. Create Check-in Guest Event

      This flow should already exist; it was created by the orgfarm people.

    2. Knowing the Reserv-o-matic ID [2], query the reservation data to find the latest reservation details

      Query where? In some other esoteric Salesforce object?

    1. Since version 9.5, Org has first-class support for citations. Org-roam supports the caching of both these in-built citations (of form [cite:@key]) and org-ref citations (of form cite:key).

      So it allows you to use citations in ROAM_REFS -- I always thought it generated the citations, for some reason.

      See here: https://orgmode.org/manual/Citations.html

    1. although Django has special conveniences for building “CMS-y” apps, that doesn’t mean it’s not just as appropriate for building “non-CMS-y” apps

      I now wonder if I can build a powerful CRM on Django.

    2. not necessarily how the data looks, but which data is presented

      As in, JSON vs HTML data?

    1. Claims, on the other hand, are basically transactions: they are schema blobs which reference a permanode and say things like "set the field foo to value bar" or "delete field foo"

      These sound useful for monitoring data integrity.

    2. the purpose of Perkeep is chiefly to archive an individual's data, which can include both traditional files, as well as data that is not exactly files, like online posts

      ...and websites?

    1. If you’re selling your technology to repressive governments that you know have a dismal record of human rights, you know that your technology will end up being abused

      This puts the onus on sandvine to be discerning in their business practices. Maybe that's good.

    1. mvn verify

      The "command" here, is a build phase's name. Maven will run all the previous build phases, finishing with this one.

    1. use a Git hook script to automatically build and roll-out our software to our production servers everytime there was a commit on master

      I've never considered git hooks as the basis for a CI/CD process, but it makes so much sense that it seems almost silly to use anything else.

    1. My demonstration is also shared at the end of this blog if you are interested in trying it for yourself!

      I was expecting a github repository with code, but sadly that wasn't the case.

    2. domain will act as a placeholder. This will change dynamically based on your new API name

      I used appName, but I think I like domain better.

    1. sometimes describe Bluesky as a browser with a whole marketplace of extensions, made possible by its open network

      "Open network" -- not open API, or open codebase. I wonder what this means when you're building something to use this network. I have wondered if it'd be possible to build an alternative to hypothesis itself, using atproto protocol. I had found memex, which seemed like it might do that, but I now think it only supports login via bluesky, and doesn't actually use the atproto for anything.

      See [here] (https://atproto.com/) for the answers, maybe.

    1. Israeli authorities have provided conflicting accounts for the cause of the fire.

      One account claims the fires were started by Israeli settlers in Palestine.

    1. Modern slavery is an under reported crime and I hope that the bravery of the victim in this case encourages other victims of modern slavery to come forward

      So, the victim reported the crime, did she? Also interesting, as the prosecution said she didn't understand her situation.

  4. docs.getpelican.com docs.getpelican.com
    1. If, on the other hand, you specify a PLUGINS setting as a list of plugins, this auto-discovery will be disabled.

      This page doesn't make clear where I should define this constant, but I found one example of it being defined in pelicanconf.py.

    1. If run inside an activated virtual environment, pelican-quickstart will look for an associated project path inside $VIRTUAL_ENV/.project.

      I thought this was some file that'd tell Pelican how to structure the project during quick-start, but no -- it seems like it's just a file to tell Pelican where to put the project's files, when I invoke the pelican-quickstart command in some other directory. Since I'm using venv, this isn't that interesting.

    1. Usually, the input files are reStructuredText and Markdown files, and the output is a blog, but both input and output can be anything you want

      Literally anything?

    1. both guest and contact are mapped to common Data Model Objects

      Does this mean they're both mapped to the same DMO?

    2. putting a reservation related list right into the Contact page layout

      I wonder if this pulls the data out of reserv-o-matic using data federation, or a DLO.

    1. By default, secure connections (using protocols like TLS and HTTPS) from all apps trust the pre-installed system CAs, and apps targeting Android 6.0 (API level 23) and lower also trust the user-added CA store by default

      Does this imply that it's not possible for the user to add their own CA in Android versions higher than 6.0?

    2. Safely debug secure connections in an app without added risk to the installed base

      Very interesting that this is supported.

    3. Customize which Certificate Authorities (CA) are trusted for an app's secure connections

      Does this mean I might not have to install a custom CA certificate to use a self-signed certificate?

    1. In such dilemmas, what is needed is for the parties to have a common commitment to rules of engagement that preserve and promote the collective good, even as they continue to pursue their partisan interests.

      This sounds like international humanitarian law, to me. Maybe the rules could be enshrined in the constitution.

    1. most messaging is transient and vapor-like by default

      Maybe this is why we build software like Jira.

    1. Unlike messaging apps where important details or past discussions can be lost or muddied in the chaos of all our other communication, email is elegant and keeps it all nicely ordered, searchable locally, and is platform agnostic.

      To be fair, there's no reason one couldn't follow the same format in a messaging app like Telegram. The advantage email has here is that users don't need to be onboarded to the platform.

    2. Ctrl-A (select all) and Ctrl-C (copy) the entire last post, create a new email (Ctrl-N) and Ctrl-V (paste) it all in there, make your changes and send

      Again -- this is just an email client thing: the client could be configured to include the original email body when replying-all. Then you simply make your changes, and send. I think this was even mentioned in an RFC, IIRC.

    3. if three people must create an itinerary for a customer visit, the drafting and collaboration can all happen via email until such time as it is agreed upon and needs to be published externally to the email thread

      This makes sense to me, as I've often seen people lose track of which version of the document is the latest one -- even when using Google docs! At least when drafting directly in the email body, the latest version of the document is always clear.

    4. Aside from professional project management, planning and collaborating on personal things – like trips and vacations, family reunions, summer camp options for the kids, or even advice – is best done by email, not specialized collaborative software tools online.

      Does this mean the author endorses the use of tools like Jira instead of email, for project management? I suppose the advantage Jira et al has is that it gives you a dashboard where you can see the latest version of the project, without having to do any work to figure that out. That'd be nearly impossible in an email client. But doesn't that just mean you need a better email client?

    1. If we search for a particular query string, that string needs to be encoded as an embedding using the same bi-encoder as before. Then we can compare it to the notebook embeddings.

      Does this mean that whether a string matches some content in a notebook is a question of where on the plot the encoded string lands?

    1. Eric Benfield, Edward Fullerton and his wife, Kathleen, were all hanged

      What about Eric's wife? I'm surprised to hear Guyana had a hanging as late as the 50's!

    1. travel’s dehumanizing effect

      I would say *tourism's" dehumanizing effect; we've already established that travel for work, duty, etc, is not the same, and has a different effect on one's self, and one's destination.

    2. They get lost, drive for hours on a rocky mountain road, and eventually, “in a tiny valley not even marked on the map,” stumble upon a village celebrating a religious festival. Watching the villagers dance, the tourists finally have “an authentic sight, a sight which is charming, quaint, picturesque, unspoiled.”

      I think this is what I hope to experience when I go anywhere -- then I take a tour of some distillery.

    3. Tourists are less likely to borrow from their hosts than their hosts are from them, thus precipitating a chain of change in the host community

      So Tourists tend to contaminate the places to which they travel -- I feel as though I heard from someone a worry that this might happen to Guyana. I know I have wondered what tourist destinations were like before becoming such.

    4. Let’s define “tourism” as the kind of travel that aims at the interesting—and, if Emerson and company are right, misses

      The kind of travel that fails in an attempt at being interesting.

    5. One sign that you have a reason to be somewhere is that you have nothing to prove, and therefore no drive to collect souvenirs, photos, or stories to prove it.

      I've always had a problem with collecting souvenirs, but couldn't articulate it. Turns out it is this: I disdain the collection of "trophies" for the purpose of showing I have traveled.

    1. To use our system safely, we need to create at least one unprivileged user

      How can I define a privileged user?

    2. Inside this mapping, we pass the name of the environment we want to install as the value of the id key

      I wish I had a reference for all the possible values.

    1. I tell the media that me daughter was in there and the media was listening… (but) the Police come and chase me from here last night

      A corroborating report says the GPF attempted to move people away so they could "sneak" the body out.

    2. whatever specialized resources are required… will be provided

      It sounds to me like he doesn't know what resources are required.

    1. Though the owner’s son and a hotel worker were initially charged in that case, both were later freed

      I wonder why.

    2. the Guyana Police Force continues to urge anyone with information to step forward as investigations intensify.

      This gives me the impression they have no leads, aside from the owner of the car.

    3. Surveillance footage obtained from nearby establishments is currently under review

      As of this comment's writing, it is still under review.

    1. A breakout strategy aims to enter a trade as soon as the price manages to break out of its range.

      A "range" being a trend where the price tends neither upwards, or downwards -- it goes "sideways".

    1. if your strategy is based on range trading, you might want to pick a currency pair with low volatility such as EUR/CHF instead of a volatile pair like AUD/JPY.

      Surely, there must be a way to calculate the volatility of an instrument.

    2. The key principle behind technical analysis is that the price of a financial asset reflects all the available information about the particular asset.

      Maybe there is some way to map the price back to the fundamental data? Maybe you could "calculate" the price using the fundamental data?

    1. I want to suggest an alternative to all the approaches above: what you read is good and useful and very important, you’re just reading it at the wrong time.

      Not necessarily that you don't have the time to read it now, but that the knowledge gained is not useful right now.

    1. I'm using judell/Hypothesis python wrapper to access and back up this data

      This link is dead, as of this comment's writing. I use gooseberry to download my annotations one-by-one, but it should support a way of downloading everything -- kind of like syncthing for hypothesis, but with a templating language.

    2. Annotations layer should be loosely coupled to the underlying content

      I wonder if PDF "annotations" are decoupled in this manner. I doubt it.

    1. A common allegation against Islam and the character of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is that he committed an evil act by marrying Aisha while she was 6 years old and consummating the marriage when she was only 9 years old.

      I have seen one person indicating that they believe this to be true. If true, does this mean Islam itself, and all Muslims, believe this is good, and right? I don't know.

  6. Mar 2025
    1. Ali insists the country can balance climate leadership and fossil fuel exploitation. The new oil wealth will allow Guayana to develop, including building climate adaptations such as sea walls, he has said.

      This is a local workaround to a global problem.

    1. two kids got in a fight a third party would often say “Hey, don’t do gyaku gire!” and that would shut the person who is doing gyaku gire up because they realize they’ve exposed a weakness

      In Guyana, you'd tell the person that they are "wrong and strong", but that almost never has the effect described here.

  7. Feb 2025
    1. Each parent, to revert to the same example, is commonly thought to be permitted (at the least) to save his own child even at the cost of not saving two other children to whom he has no special relation.

      So a parent is morally permitted, maybe even obligated, to save their own child before attempting to save another's? That makes sense... I guess...

    2. certain actions can be right even though not maximizing of good consequences, for the rightness of such actions consists in their instantiating certain norms (here, of permission and not of obligation)

      My problem here is that the Right is subjective.

    3. norm-keepings are not to be maximized by each agent

      So traditions are not to be blindly obeyed, even by the deontologist?

    4. will not legitimate egregious violations of ordinary moral standards

      Neither argument so far has considered whether the one deserved death.

    1. providing a platform for public discourse does not absolve the host of responsibility to intervene when statements verge on criminal conduct.

      Did Amsterdam not intervene? What did he do?

    1. illegal mining in Chile (63) and Colombia (39)

      Note that even in a country with a score as relatively high as Chile, to ours, anyway, this can still happen.

  8. Jan 2025
    1. When we were a smart country, in the 1890s … this is when the country was relatively the richest it ever was.

      Also when it was it's most corrupt, wasn't it?

    1. he never showed anger or any other passion, but was entirely free from passion, and also most affectionate

      This is a new kind of "freedom" that I had not yet considered.

    2. to endure freedom of speech

      It is interesting to think that freedom of speech must be endured -- perhaps by the listener, if then it is enjoyed by the speaker.

    3. learned how to receive from friends what are esteemed favors, without being either humbled by them or letting them pass unnoticed

      I wish I knew how to do this.

    1. inflows from Guyana REDD+ Investment Fund (GRIF), the Natural Resource Fund (NRF), and Carbon Credits, amounted to $437.7 billion, experiencing growth of $55.6 billion or 14.5 percent above the 2023 level, while revenue collections from the Guyana Revenue Authority amounted to $420.2 billion, while total non-tax revenue totaled $17.5 billion

      What exactly is "non-tax revenue"?

    1. special emphasis on men

      That seems arbitrary.

    2. GBV Policy, GBV Framework, and GBV Model

      Implies some kind of best practice for defining these documents that I may be able to grok. See here, maybe.

    3. 14,000 calls

      14,000? Since when? As of September 22, 2024, the number was "over 4,000", from 2020. Has the hotline received an additional 10,000 calls or so in the last 4 months?

    4. Guyana’s first comprehensive model to respond to GBV.

      Which is what, exactly?

    1. Since 2020 to the present, over 4,000 calls have recorded and matters dealt with, bringing relief to families and other victims

      I wonder where this number came from.

    2. posited

      Small sidebar: the minister did not posit anything; she did not make an argument for debate. She made a statement -- a statement I believe she wants to be taken as fact.

    3. And the police have all the power now that they didn’t have before

      The police, or the courts?

    4. the legislation which had deficiency has drastically changed from 1996 to present, catering for the protection of everyone within society.

      Is he talking about that law that was changed to include men? I think a law concerning rape was changed to allow men to be classified as victims of the crime.

    1. Equanimity is the voluntary acceptance of the things which are assigned to thee by the common nature

      I wonder what his definition is of what is "natural".

  9. Dec 2024
    1. ClusterIP (default) - Exposes the Service on an internal IP in the cluster. This type makes the Service only reachable from within the cluster.

      Probably useful for a load balancer.

    1. Bob Pastor

      He was head of the Carter Center.

    2. These issues had been hotly debated for almost thirty years and were very difficult for the ruling party to accept.

      The PNC still fights against these election regulations in 2024.

    3. major political parties are largely separated along these racial lines, as are many of the basic professions.

      That is interesting. I wonder what the Indian, and African, professions were.

    1. In a deeper network, there may be multiple hidden layers back to back before the output layer

      There is a method for working out how many layers may be best. I think there is also a way to work out how many nodes may be best in each layer, too.

    1. Phone connections are generally direct connections. That’s very different from the internet where we use single packets.

      That is to say, phone connects were kind of like websockets: connects that remain open to transmit data.

    1. Gods change sex or manifest as an avatar of the opposite sex in order to facilitate sexual congress.[

      I'm pretty sure Zeus did this, too.

    1. The unrecoverable costs for a homeowner are property taxes, maintenance costs, and the cost of capital

      Here, the interest for financing the purchase of the house is the cost of capital.

    1. improperly designed fuel colume could make matters even worse as a simple circular internal cavity will result in an increase in thrust as the fuel is burned

      Changing the shape of the inside of the fuel tank is not something that would have ever occurred to me!

    1. active records are stored in the repository

      It is therefore possible for records to be "inactive"? What does this mean?

    1. I wonder whether the protocol can be used for web annotations.

    1. the trucks ensure to make their stops at the Chinese supermarkets and sell goods to them

      I wonder whether the Chinese shops are bribing the truck drivers, or even the sales rep. i wonder if anyone at DDL would help me find this out.

    2. can't prevent competition or this is a free market

      i wonder if this is truly a free market.

    1. has everything a contractor needs to start construction

      I wonder if CHPA provides BIM LOD 400 models for their homes.

    2. contain a detailed overview of all the components and materials a construction team needs to estimate a project and get it constructed

      I wonder whether it is possible to define a "wall" that is comprised of custom defined "bricks".

    1. Bluecast (an audio app).

      Like discord chat, or more like one of those social audio apps?

    2. no-code way to create custom feeds? Try out SkyFeed or Bluesky Feed Creator

      This seems interesting. Do I still consume the feeds on the Bluesky application?

  10. Nov 2024
    1. try asking questions that lead the person to question what they believe.

      Have done this -- it works.

    2. Moreover, in situations of high stress or distrust, your body releases another hormone, cortisol

      This is why debating is a skill; your body actively hampers your ability to think critically when presented with contrarian information.

    3. It’s a feeling many people want to have more often.

      It can become an addiction like any other!

    4. In just one two-week period spanning the 2016 election, both Republicans and Democrats drastically changed their opinions about the state of the economy – in opposite directions.

      Shouldn't they have reinforced their positions on the economy instead?

    5. how your brain functions

      As in, by physical imperfections in the brain? Or brain disorders?

    1. unlike your phone you can't ignore your watch it is always in the peripheral of your vision edging you on to be present

      Not smartwatches though...

    1. some Python code from PyHSS that does it for you

      I had chatGPT port this to dataweave:

      ``` %dw 2.0 output application/json fun TBCD_special_chars(input) = if (input == "*") "1010" else if (input == "#") "1011" else if (input == "a") "1100" else if (input == "b") "1101" else if (input == "c") "1100" else do { // log message "input " ++ input ++ " is not a special char, converting to bin " (input as Number) as String {format: "0b"} // converting input to binary }

    1. This page sold me on clay bricks; they are easier to build with, and provide better strength, and insulation, once construction is completed. These benefits outweigh the increased cost, for me.

    2. Though, it is recommended to account for expansion around doors and window openings

      How, though? What would happen with clay bricks around a wooden door?

    3. When it comes to cement bricks, due to their tendency to shrink, these structures may be more prone to cracks

      Have seen this first-hand.

    4. Standard clay bricks weigh about five pounds each, while an eight-inch cement brick can be as much 43 pounds

      Is a standard clay brick about eight inches as well?

    5. The power of a brick to absorb water is measured by the rate of absorption

      You don't want your bricks to absorb water.

    1. However, the notes don't have to be textual, nor do they have to be something which is mergeable.

      Can I have binary files in my notes??

    2. Overwriting existing notes for object 056ca11c01b47e2bfe1e51178b65c80bbdeef7b0

      It seems that you're able to make notes on commits. Since a commit can be referenced by a tag, or branch, you can make notes on those, too -- kind of.

    3. I have wondered if git's notes function would allow one to keep some kind of issue management system within the repository itself.

    1. SDK uses a method from a Software Development Kit (SDK)

      From any SDK? Surely they can't mean you can stick an arbitrary "SDK" somewhere in Salesforce, and use it as a data source?

    1. In graph theory, such a layout is known as a complete graph

      I wonder what a "fully connected" brain would look like.

    2. five links that can break one at a time while leaving all nodes indirectly connected with each other

      I count two, but okay

    1. deletes stale data records that are missing data to clean it and make it more usable

      Does this thing enable me to version my Salesforce data?

    2. DataPacks API

      Is this an alternative to the Metadata API?

    3. Product2 DataPacks

      Wait -- DataPacks aren't just for Omnistudio components?

    4. lib/querydefinitions.yaml
    5. The automation server uses IDX Build Tool and the SFDX-CLI (Salesforce Command Line Interface) for automated deployment

      Why both?

    1. Orgs configured in each project

      So a single project can be configured with multiple orgs, even though they are sObject records? How does this work?

    2. The OmniStudio Tracking Service is an event-tracking service that captures details of actions that users perform

      All actions? Does it require configuration to be useful?

    1. The problem is not Explicit TLS but rather the opportunistic use of TLS for the sake of backward compatibility

      If one's email service did not require TLS, would one be unable to email with another who's service did not support TLS?

    1. Urban Consumer Price Index (CPI) year-to-date inflation stood at 1.6 percent,

      I wonder what my income should be, knowing the CPI.

    2. The Bank of Guyana has reported that food prices have increased by 3.2% during the first half of the year,

      First half of 2024.

    1. we recommend checking the inside of your car’s fuel door

      The inside of my fuel door has some Japanese business.
