I don't believe any of the electoral fraud claims were actually judged... it's all been rejected for a lack of standing. People saying courts rejected the fraud claims are generally mistaken, because the evidence never got presented.
The bigger question I have is when will we be ready to confidently claim that the vaccine doesn’t just prevent symptoms but also prevents spread? (Edit: at the same or nearly the same 95% rate)

I can’t see a human trial being able to show this, and contact tracing is overall so poor how long will we have to wait to not see a case that can be tracked back to a vaccinated individual before we are willing to agree that the vaccine is highly effective at stopping transmission?

For example, by Feb 1 we will have millions of people who are effectively protected at least from symptoms due to vaccine. So e.g. by March 1, if we have no, or single digit, reported cases of 2-week post-jab transmission?

The corollary is how durable is the effect?

To fully reopen the economy you need some kind of consensus on where the truth lies to these two questions.

I wonder if public health agencies will never really admit, but just the case count will start to dwindle and mitigations will start to lessen, without ever really coming out and admitting vaccinated people don’t need mitigations 2-weeks-post-jab.

Similar to how we’ve never really admitted that people who’ve had COVID are immune and can no longer spread it.

I think fundamentally gov’t is too afraid of having two classes of citizens, and mainly, that one class (the antibody negative class) lying that they are actually the other.
It's uncommon, but the Supreme Court also has original jurisdiction, "In all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, and those in which a state shall be party." U.S. Const. Art. III. Here, Texas attempted to sue four other states over how they conducted their elections, so it fell under original jurisdiction.
"Turn on by default the tools to amplify factual voices over disinformation."

Who gets to decide which is which? Why would I want to tell people they are wrong about how they experience the world when they disagree with the way I do?
Besides from being more precise, what does this offer that SleepCycle doesn't? I am quite happy with it..

Why would you want to opt in?
Un-litigated or un-licensed patents still have value, even to smaller companies.

One huge use for patents is a like a nuclear arsenal between competitors. Competitor A has 500 patents, competitor B has 500 patent, both covering the product range they both make. Neither is going to sue based on it because it would be a huge mess. The Smartphone wars is something of a rarity. Usually industry leaders don't go at each other.

Google found this out because of their late development of patents related to Android. Not having the arsenal made Google weak. It's why Google acquired Motorola. Google paid billions for patents that never got used.

IP portfolios also are an asset you can borrow against.

Commercial litigation is always expensive. Doesn't matter if it is breach of contract or patent infringement. The little guy is at a disadvantage.
Who says that "slower" doesn't still remain within the realm of "fast", perhaps even with a capital F?

I wouldn't assume that the language as is is totally devoid of features that already complicate compilation -- that would probably result in some kind of polish notation proto pascal…

So it's all about tradeoffs, and the go designers just say that this isn't worth it, at least for the current time and the current Plan9-ish Thompson compiler. Whether this crosses over from the pragmatic to the dogmatic is up for discussion (cf. dynamic linking).
That's not how houses work. He is house wealthy now. Did you read the part where the previous owner paid 12m for it a few years back?
Why are we debating whether some programmers are better than others? Of course some are. What we should be asking is whether hiring 10X programmers is worth it.

Today it seems every open position requires a "rockstar" developer, even for simple work. The demand for "rockstars" is so great, CEOs of tech companies complain of talent shortages, and companies resort to talent sniping. I suspect most programming jobs could be done well by an average programmer, thus ending the so-called shortage of good programmers and giving inexperienced developers the chance to further their skills on the job.
Without even going into the technical side of things, what I really don't understand about these sorts of projects is: What are you trying to achieve, exactly?

Some of material that DarkLeaks is being advertised as "the best tool to trade" seems like it would be great to have publicly available, e.g.

> Proof of tax evasion, corruption

But most of these things, in my opinion, should NOT be publicly distributed! They are private/confidential for good reason - either for personal privacy, or even for national security reasons! E.g.

> (Recent) military intelligence, sex pictures, trade secrets, ...

I don't understand how anyone can wholeheartedly support a system that could help do so much damage to the world.

I'd appreciate a citation to back up your claims. I'm pretty sure I could also find plenty of economists on the other side as well.
My favorite features (that I've only seen implemented half as well in every other editor) is the pop-up Go To File dialog where I can start typing a file's name and it'll find the file in the open project, and the Go To Symbol dialog where I can start typing a function's name and it'll go right there in the current file.

The best part about the Go To File dialog is I can type something like "mess re pht" and it will find "message_report.phtml". The filtering is instant. Whenever I go to a fellow engineer's desk to work with them on something and they're using Zend Studio or vim it's so painful to watch them go through a gigantic project tree to find a file when I can open any file in under a second.

The full project search is fantastic, too. Once it's indexed, a full project search of a 500KLOC project takes only a few seconds.
Some tech pundits foresee a Facebook future where friend recommendations replace search

I don't even understand how anyone can think this would be useful.

Would it be helpful when shopping for a new phone to know if my "friends" have had better experience with Android or an iPhone? Sure.

But will a friend's recommendations help me find driving directions to a location, or help me search for the answer to an elusive error message from a piece of software I'm using, or help me find out more information on a historic event or disease I want to learn more about?

How often are these "tech pundits" correct in their prognostications anyway?
