I believe estimate of infection date is by MOH data, which tries to estimate infection date in patients by clinical data. As for other effects, the idea is to "present the full range of reasonable scenarios and show how they affect the estimation of effectiveness."[0].

I'm not saying the analysis is right (I lack the credentials to say that) but I can tell you Israeli HMOs have been disappointed by 1st dose efficiency and have been vocal about it in media.

Soon there'll be a published preprint by Clalit alongside Miguel Hernán and Marc Lipsitch (so not some Israeli-only effort, there's external review), and that is likely to be definitive. For now, Clalit is keeping a 2 dose regiment and applying no pressure to change it.

Broadly, a couple reasons:

- Tax prep companies like Intuit have a vested interest in keeping tax prep difficult.

- Grover Norquist (Americans for Tax Reform) believes that making filing taxes easier will make people more okay with paying taxes, and as a result, many conservative policymakers won't bite. (It's slightly more complicated than this, but I believe this assessment to be accurate.)

Here's a Planet Money podcast: https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2017/03/22/521132960/epis...

And a ProPublica series on Intuit: https://www.propublica.org/series/the-turbotax-trap
You're completely right, this wasn't a complicated attack at all. The two most notable items here are, Solarwinds has horrible security practices and those customers who were affected by the attack, also have horrible security practices. In a correctly secured environment it wouldn't have been possible for a infected Solarwinds server to connect out to a C2C server.
I think you need to catch up with the investigative reporting on just how hard Intuit has lobbied to limit free filing, and how entrenched the deal is in IRS leadership.

> He's not bashing React

I quote him

> React sucks

How do you call it? a constructive criticism ?
> React sucks

If it sucked nobody would be using it.
Its not hairsplitting, maybe you read the FRP papers by Conal Eliot.
My biggest mistake was not vetting companies enough when interviewing. Not catching big warning signs and thinking naively that I can work 60+ hour weeks for 1+ year with a significant amount dedicated to coding in tight deadlines - while I made most deadlines fine (the one I failed was due to no planning allocated to estimating the time to complete my team's work by product), it has seriously burnt me out & I've had to reduce my work time to ~35 hours a week (at least to no complaints)

I need to trust my instincts more & be more cautious with such big moves.
Actually you are wrong. Follow him and others on twitter and you will see that they are some of the most forward thinking people on these types of frontend technologies.

om and elm.are the future, which is functional and immutable. React is the gateway to those technologies, which have a long and strong academic foundation.

The days of hacking together things on the frontend are over, more sound approaches are needed, and those developers who embrace them will have their pick of jobs and a fistful of cash.
You should check pacmatic[1], which checks the official website for you and informs you about breaking updates. Along with this, it informs you of any config files (*.pacnew) you have to manually update.

Which brings me to my second problem with Arch: every other update I have to manually inspect the changes on various config files and merge with my personal changes.

Note that the plan for Matrix is to implement support for full decentralisation by bundling a lightweight server with a client. A longer term plan is to also decouple accounts from servers, so that you can migrate an account to a different server even after creation.

Both of these will probably have a further decentralising effect.
I have no idea why Twitter didn't use PubSubHubBub but isn't it fair to say PSHB is all about making it super easy to push the data around, subscribe to it, create a new PSHB node etc..?

...Those are all things Twitter (rightly/wrongly) DON'T want you to do. They want to make it difficult for you to sign up, they don't want you to push the data on etc -- this is based on their terms of use for this product (you can't even publish the tweets).

Ok technically you can do what you want with the data, but they presumably want to do everything from the Ts & Cs down to the architecture to ensure you stay as a leaf node and not easily become a super node.
It's hard to differentiate from being lazy though. That's what I struggle with most.

[EDIT] Jeff Bezos said it best: "The thing about inventing is you have to be both stubborn and flexible. The hard part is figuring out when to be which!"

Turning your own car into a driverless car for less than $200 would be quite novel. (I don’t think the Kinect is ideal or all that useful for this task, it would be very revolutionary if it were, though.)

Price is important. Price can be the only thing that’s different about something and it can still be revolutionary.
He talks about it as a nightmare wich implies that storing emails/hashes is worse.

I think that storing them is not more difficult, it is more convenient and secure (of course this is relative). But maybe I am missing something about the security of this scheme.
Megalomania, always a great excuse.

AI and ML users are massively benefiting from open source but too often refuse to release their data. It's like we're back in the middle ages and alchemy is back in style.
IMO, their general results are close enough my preference for DDG’s UI is a major factor. Where Google wins is better parsing of math and conversions. ex: “37 * 5 gallons in liters”
Don't even try. Use docker, there are official pre-built images. It's easy:

docker run -p 8888:8888 -v ~/Code/actual-project/:/home/jovyan jupyter/datascience-notebook

Note ~/Code/actual-project/ is a git repo or a mounted Google Drive folder. Moving from one machine to an other is pain-free.

With more of an FP background (erlang / haskell) I was a little confused regarding when you would need to inspect variables outside the lambda. Won't the external variables be the same as they were before you called forEach? Why do you want to check that each iteration?

Then I realized that mutating variables is fairly common in a loop in procedural programming and that if you were to translate that to a forEach it would be useful to see what was going on.

I think the introduction of FP concepts in Java 8 is going to be interesting when it is not accompanied by immutability and other foundations in the language (or at least idiomatic usage like in Scala). I can't tell if that will cripple them or make them more accessible.
There's also a method for true-color lossy PNGs that blurs instead of dithering: https://speakerdeck.com/pornel/lossy-png-for-true-color-imag... (https://github.com/pornel/mediancut-posterizer). It's not as efficient as PNG8, but still better than nothing :)
I vote both "good contribution" and "agree" on your comment.

Your two metrics pretty much nail what I want to know to quickly skim a dense comments page. They don't even need to be numbers, a small graphical representation might work even better.

Just give my eyes something to lock on, from there I will likely read the sub-thread regardless of votes anyways.

The current state is awful. Just take this thread, with currently 180 comments. No chance am I going to skim even half of them to pick out the good ones. I read the top few, scroll down a little, and then quickly lose interest. - That's the new HN for me.
Are peeping toms hurting people?
A frivolous lawsuit can still be dismissed without qualified immunity, and they regularly are, but the problem is that serious wrongdoing is also regularly dismissed, creating a catch 22 where the lack of existing case law and the requirement that wrongdoing be in violation of clearly established law (which generally means nearly identical facts) leads to cases being dismissed before they become case law.

That's not conducive to good governance, which is why you get conservative Libertarians like The Cato Institute joining with the NAACP to argue against it.
Then bittorrent is transcendent p2p?
Often the developers have very little choice. They're handed a spec and told "go make this" and what they make has to be pixel perfect. Personally I think that very very few businesses actually need to do this, and adopting this way of thinking is backward and counter-productive (especially when perhaps more important things like accessibility are not even a consideration), what I think isn't the point.
That is an impressive aircraft, but far too large and expensive for these purposes.
Everything is easier to talk about when freely lying is allowed.
Chromecast doesn't because it doesn't support MHL-HDMI which added a power over HDMI option (HDMI does have power but it something like 50mA). The newest version of MHL-HDMI does 2A. I'm not sure if that's enough to power this Intel stick however.

For mass hosting of web applications written by untrusted 3rd parties I like PHP better because I can restrict what they can do via php.ini and there seems to be better support for static analysis.

That said most of the stuff I write myself lately is in Python.
False positives are okay. Google gets scathing posts because they suck at customer service. Hire people to do customer service like everyone else does already!
I'm still confused, is it a single multiprocessor machine, or is it a 'cluster' in the sense that each node has a single processor? (You used both threads and inter-process, but also implied multiple nodes...)
Larry Page told his advisor that he thought it would take 2 weeks to index the Internet. His advisor knew it would take a lot longer but didn't say anything.

In the UK, there have been quite a few TV ads from Facebook recently.

Yesterday, after watching another one, my girlfriend commented: "Even Facebook is making ads now - this tells us a lot about how well things are going for them."

Internally TS is a two pass compilation. First type check, then transpile to ES5.

The type check step should be available to run on its own. IMO they should not even worry about transpiling, just be a type checking engine.

The API for TS, last I used it, was extremely limited. It has always been viewed as a black box compiler by the authors- they need to expose more flexibility.
Ugh.

At least the world has managed to have "Email" as a standard, a medium, that is not controlled by any huge corporation's grubby claws.

Why not with chat? What happened to this? Why is there a war for my data with these big companies, who do NOT have our best interests in mind, and never will?

Why can't we have a federated standard for chat, controlled by no one? It seems that we have come close at various times but it has never happened. Will it ever happen? Or is it already too late?
While I agree more work is done by computers there is quite a bit which involves making judgment calls that computers have not been coded to make. There is also a lot of busy work, unnecessary work, and the like, done in offices daily.

Still I find that in many areas the amount of office work needing to be done is related to the amount of regulation the industry is burdened with. I know what because of SOX deal with two sets of auditors quarterly whose staff size alone is dozens of people. There is still a great deal of paper work that is required to be in the files of overlapping government agencies in different forms and even at specific times of the year. All that takes people. People to create, people to review, people to certify, people to validate the certification, and people to validate a process that creates the documents is all observed. Then we can add in all the outside agencies which act on or in parallel.

So, pare down regulation and you will pare down office
> Uber, Palantir, Airbnb, Dropbox, Pinterest, and SpaceX are currently worth just over $100B

The reason that most these companies (excluding SpaceX) are "bubbles", is that their value is based on marketing only: anyone could start a next Uber or Airbnb in their basement.
Unfortunately they pretty much dumped the class syntax early on in Vue 3's development, so you'll probably find it quite hard to transition to Vue 3 if you Vue 2 codebase is full on class components. I had a similar issue having adopted the class syntax and I think rewriting is probably the only way out.
As someone who works close to the SO office. No. I’d expect everyone to be home asleep at that time.
Agreed. The submitted link is to a list of book covers. Dang, can we change the link to this one? This page actually matches the title.
Two vouches, in my case.
I wish I had the confidence of a software engineer casually disregarding medical research.
I don't think most places let you swipe anymore anyway. But yeah, I'm also wondering why there are no contactless cards here. Probably the most annoying part of gassing up is getting all your cards out to get rewards, etc, putting your info in and how much gas you want.
In a way they're very similar, but I think of the situation similarly to my main computer: an 11" laptop with a 27" display that it spends about half the time attached to. Sure, the ultimate would be something that could fit into my pocket but fold out to wall-sized... but until that's available, I'll continue to want devices of varying sizes and levels of portability.
It's a good product nonetheless.
I'm always surprised when people do this - I don't see people compulsively clearing out their Recent Items. I wonder if the only people who do this are people who are used to closing apps on a computer to conserve resources.
Scientific American is a monthly print serial. I assume "today" means the official December publication date.
Well, I don't think it's a question of whether salaries should be kept secret or not, I think it's a question of whether one should access data he's not supposed to just because he can.
I agree, the ideal candidate, particularly for a startup, would have a wealth of knowledge and experience in addition to the drive to challenge themselves and the ability to learn new things. The problem that startups face is that they can't usually hire those people because someone like Google or Facebook is paying them with truckloads of gold. Not always of course, sometimes startups can attract those people and it's great for them. But when they can't they must compromise; and if you have to choose between someone with knowledge and experience, and someone with drive and the ability to learn you're better served in the long run taking the latter. It will require some sacrifice in the beginning to bring them up to speed, but eventually they will overtake the candidate who stands still content with what they already know.

The attitude that I see coming through in that post is that they value what people already know more than what people can learn, which I think is backwards. On top of that they just came across sounding like assholes. I could be wrong though, it's hard to read people's intention through text.
I'm definitely eating more than 1200 calories a day, that's the point. I just do it all at once. I'm basically sedentary so I get plenty of calories for what my body requires. Also, speaking to a nutritionist, males can safely lose up to 3 lbs a week depending how high their starting weight is (I was right on the borderline of medically obese).
One of the first textbooks on PL/1 also stated: "you should avoid using subroutines because they they create extra overhead" ;)

40 years later and we still there ...
The lack of insulin, food, and housing is the problem. That really has nothing to do with how much money somebody else has. You could give everybody fee insulin, food and housing and not take anything away from the 1%. We the 99% simply choose not to.
I pay $150/mo to be a patient of a local "concierge" doctor in Sacramento. This is a D.O. that previously had a regular insurance-based practice. Appointments are free, usually on time, and can run 20-30 minutes. Labs and prescriptions can still go through my regular health insurance.
I found it interesting that the last time I was in Berlin, about a year ago, I kept finding the same stickers everywhere being used for vandalism, initially with an anti-fascist message and then just as many cleverly scratched over to change the message to anti-Semitic hate speech.

Equally interesting was that these things were everywhere and none of the locals I was with had ever seen them before. Out of sight, out of mind.
Trump stoked the anger and insecurities of his followers and left them to make the final decision about what actions they would take.

You're leaving out that politicians who have encouraged people to attend BLM protests often encourage people to assembly peacefully but to make their voices heard. I haven't seen anywhere prior to the attack on the Capitol building where Trump urged his followers to be peaceful. He has done the opposite, which allowed his followers to infer that he would support acts of violence.
I read a rendition of that Evil Genius How To and never understood that point until now: as someone evil, I want my minions to be faceless and threatening, and above all I don't want their targets to see the fear behind the mask and get hope that they could defeat my minions.

Looking at it from an opsec point of view and it makes total sense, however, so long as your minions can all recognise each other. Failing that, its the information age so just use facial recognition - not as biometric locks, but to identify unique individuals and alert security of unrecognised people or people with face coverings. Uniforms and battledress could even incorporate body-worn cameras in order to identify individuals both to the minion wearing the device, and also as a remote "eye on the ground" to the security team.
Check out thedonald.win and voat if you want to see what you're missing. People saying things like this are sugar coating it.

Huh.
This is a culture war. This is not a battle of logic.
Because they are not liberals like you, they are leftists.
could have convinced millions more people that they are trying their best to apply policies evenly

Twitter is never going to convince everyone that they are being fair, and that isn't their goal here. A better way to think of their timing is: "You come at the king, you best not miss."

If Twitter had banned Trump pre-election and Trump had won anyway, the political battle afterwards for the US government to censor social media would have been terrible. Now that Trump is a lame duck and top Republicans have criticized his actions, Twitter is acting from a position of strength.

So, it's certainly taking advantage of the moment. It's a brief period when the Republican party will be unable to strongly push back against banning Trump. If they successfully pull this off, not only will Twitter get rid of an annoyance, they will set a valuable precedent that they have the right to ban the US President from their platform.
At least in 2018 I was able to.
A lot of people recommended goruck. They are great, but they don't gave much in the way of organizational compartments.

They are built very well. They are expensive but on patriotic holidays they usually have good sales. If you are a veteran sometimes you can get them for less than half of retail.
Why do you think so, I am thinking for example of some on topic subreddits like r/DaystromInstitute , any post that would try to go offtopic and politicise stuff will be removed. As a non US citizen it is a breath of fresh air not to have all topics devolve into republicans vs democrats.

IMO if you have rules that current politics is off topic and moderators that can enforce the rules, a community that respects the rules and polices them themselves you can get a clean , on topic, meme free forum.
I can't share this sentiment that it's all to track and sell you shit. It probably started out as a good idea, a virtual assistant that can tell you stuff by you just asking it with natural speech. But since this is capitalism, sadly someone asked "But how can we make money out of this?".
The problem is that statement is completely ignorant of the audience. An engineer might understand "jquery" as an explanation for slow delivery speed, but it is not the right explanation for the standard exec (notice that you inferred a lot of information from that statement that someone unfamiliar with front-end technology would not).

What the exec needs to hear is "this is built on out-of-date technology that is slowing us down and to fix that we need to be given time to migrate the application to a modern technology".

Problem + proposed solution + no irrelevant details like the name of the technology.
> You also didn't specify what country the "average person" is from, whose footprint you're comparing a pet to. Either way, it's not that big - barely 1.5% of the human population in terms of impact.

speaking for "First-world" countries mostly. I live in France, there is as many pets as inhabitants roughly (63M-66M), figures say 21M of cats+dogs, other European countries are comparable. I compare pets footprint to their owners' basically, and a 10% larger footprint in developed countries is a problem, even 3%, even 1% is something to work on, there is always a start if we want to clean up the planet

About your 1. and 2.

Not specially, I could argue the exact opposite points in return, I'm just pragmatic about it. I'd also want to address the cigarette smoking problem more seriously (my mom died from that), to ban a bunch of cosmetics, all of insecticides, plastic wrappings... Pets seem like an easy lever to deal with, 'seem' because I understand your reaction, people get attached to them, they react with passion more than reason about it, but they must understand the consequences: ecosystem and pollution damages, neutering/spaying doesn't seem enforced in Brasil like showed my previous 'impact on ecosystem' link. Of course, we really can't put every pet owner in the same bag, I'm mostly targeting the way pets become a trend, a norm, e;g. the Shiba trend, the way pets have become so "normal", so present everywhere, internet, TV, young generation are kinda educated with that.. I mean, they wouldn't really question their existence later or their environment footprint, so I'm just here trying to have a critical, in a positive sense, view

"if you suggest to people they have to put Fido to sleep right now to save the planet."

I didn't say that either, I said "cut down"

You were right about arguing against my initial argument about "pets eating one fifth of the world's meat and fish" [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pet_food#Impact] but I hope you understand all the other "invisible" pollution cost for processing, delivering those food, and all the other pets services pollution costs (vet, beauty, ...). So my point stands with their significant environmental impact, even if pets were fed insect-based food like they suggest in the wikipedia link, there would still be a significant background environmental impact
