> The Minor Planet Electronic Circulars contain information on unusual minor planets, routine data on comets and natural satellites, and occasional editorial announcements.

I assume it's being tracked elsewhere. But not here.


Just to clarify -- we already knew about the washing, right? But this refers to the specific mechanism where the blood vessels contract to cause the washing?


Yes.

And to further qualify the conclusion, the research was done in mice so it's premature to say whether or not human brains operate identically. (Mammalian anatomy between species is often similar, but just as often is found to be different in unexpected ways.)


I'd like to learn more about the washing. Do you have a link or word/phrase to Google?



And more specifically that norepinephrine waves are highly correlated with and perhaps causative of that pumping.


Correction: Bedrock is not freemium. There's also nothing wrong with Bedrock. It allows for cross-platform play. The minecoins/purchases are available in the menus, but they're never pushed in-game. The experience is very similar to Java.

Also, Java and Bedrock both have Realms (the managed "server" option you referred to).


> Isn't it more the case that all actors audit all software? Open source just has potentially more "auditors" than closed source?

Perhaps bad actors don’t audit more than good actors, but this doesn’t address whether there are more good or bad actors doing the auditing. I think this is a more valuable comparison if we’re talking about risk mitigation and the safety of open-source software. Do you know that there are more good-faith auditors than bad?

Very much related — we should probably acknowledge the disparity between the two groups in terms of motivation, sustainability of said motivation, financial resources, and time.

The idea of burnout among open-source maintainers is long-known and endlessly discussed. They often/mostly volunteer their time — to some thanks, but also to a deluge of “doesn’t work” tickets with no repro, as someone pointed out on this recent post:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41579591

Bad-faith actors tend to be highly motivated, with ideological or financial goals. They have more and perhaps better resources, more so if state-funded, and more time to commit.

This doesn’t mean there’s a constant and unmanageable risk to open-source software, and I certainly don’t agree that open-source OSes are a bad idea. But it’s not as simple as having actors auditing on each side or the difference in numbers between closed and open-source.


It’s perfectly fair to call this gimmicky and niche (note the commenter you’re replying to didn’t call it an outright gimmick). Sure, a groove box on its own isn’t niche, but one loaded with samples of medieval instruments is arguably quite niche.


I'm using the latest Firefox on Windows 10. It doesn't work. "Your current browser isn't supported. [See Supported Browsers](https://support.apple.com/120585)" and on that page is says:

Or at least an accordion for each row of checkboxes, with the first row expanded but all others closed by default.


The UX team recommends to make it infinite scrolling… improves user “engagement”.


Love it. Would it be possible to speed up the animations?


Will add an ability to speed up/outright disable animations in the next update! Was a bit of an oversight on our part as once you start amassing a decent amount of items you encounter the new item animation less frequently - but in the early game it's definitely quite irritating!


They greatly enjoyed the pasta. They didn’t say they “greatly enjoyed spending so much more money”.


Sounds like they're asking questions and you're making assumptions.


Fair, but questions posed in this manner are often statements.
