Please provide evidence that sanitizing surfaces prevented you from getting sick.
> what about the bodily autonomy of people that don't want to be in close proximity someone who might have covid

They can choose to isolate themselves. The big wide world is full of risks, and COVID is but one.

If you choose to get vaccinated, you have little to worry about. You're not going to get sick, even if exposed. If I choose to not get vaccinated, I theoretically endanger myself and that's my choice.
>> From what I gather, Archegos had $10B of equity in total? Typically (sensibly) you don't put all your eggs in one basket as a fund, even a quite concentrated fund.

>> How big was the position?

I think you're trying to get to "how was the loss so big?" The size of the position is only part of the answer.

The other comments answer the size of the position. But there are several other factors here.

They probably liquidated too late -- they ended up liquidating with giant block trades. That unwind also cost a lot because the block trade is at a discount to market value. Further, the larger the unwind, the bigger the price hit you take.

Finally, these types of unwinds can spook others in the market and further drive down the price.
Agreed. This is why I created a library to render JSX through Django. See it here: https://github.com/silviogutierrez/reactivated/

Both my personal blog and business run on it in production. See my profile for links.

The biggest issue was deploying it since you need python and node. Still a work in progress, and docs are severely lacking.

But I did add a single-click deploy to Heroku:

It's actually a decent hiring process providing the new hires are made aware of it in advance.
It somehow still doesn't work. The repo microsoft/openjdk doesn't exist/is private.
Even worse when you're in an isolated zoom meeting with a senior dev, and they're talking trash about other developers on your team. There's constructive criticism, and there's macho posturing by fucking douchebags. Even worse when you mention it to management, and they do nothing.
On the bright side, it's probably a lateral move as far as government application security goes. And if they're migrating from, e.g. DotNetNuke, probably a net gain.
Wondering this amount of extra trees will help with global warming as well.
I agree. Where is the proof that the increase in cases is directly related to fewer vaccinations? I recently read a study out of South Korea that showed despite a 97% vaccination rate against chickenpox, the number of cases continue to rise.

The most fundamental problem with our healthcare system is that we all know that pharmaceutical companies primary goal is to make bank, so we can't trust them.
One of the lords responsible is Ian Blair, the former Met Police commissioner. The one in charge at the time of the De Menezes shooting. The one who was a close friend of the News of the World at the time all the hacking was going on.

Or put a nginx in front of the Apache, disable keepalives in the Apache server (letting nginx deal with keepalive from the clients), and reduce MaxClients so even if they're all active the server does not go into swap.

(I've done exactly that for a friend, it made a huge difference in how much traffic his box can handle).
Awesome haha !
It's not a nitpick. It's the difference between making stuff up and reading the documentation. It does matter when reason about how to configure your server.
Check the previous related submission (linked in this thread), there is the same comment as yours with answers.
Not surprised that it works, it looks like something fun to do on both sides. In fact, i believe people who love romance would sign up for a free service like this on both ends. (Since their niche is people who dont want to have the actual relationships, they could easily pair up their users with each other as pure conversation partners).

The sad thing is the reason that this app exists. Has it become so taboo to be single that you have to pay to hide it?
Google: "home ownership without mortgage"

There was a few pages with similar numbers. EX:"More than 20 million American homeowners own their homes outright. No mortgage." http://www.cnbc.com/id/100370046#.

I used under 21 because there seems to be diffirent definitions of home owner. IE if you get a reverse mortgage are you still a home owner, how about a small home equity line of credit, own 2 houses and have more than 1 house of equity etc.
Good to remind us that YPG has defended NATO quite valiantly from Daesh advancing on its borders in the past. And what happened next? NATO threw them to the wolves. The Afrin district that used to be the most peaceful place in Syria is now occupied by mercenaries and ethnically cleansed.

Yes and this has been my biggest complaint for literally years but whenever I say "Signal needs a top tier backup system asap" I get moaned at with responses like "Signal is a messaging app not email, if you want to backup a message just do that one message." or "Why would you want a whole conversation backup?!" as if I am some weirdo for wanting to have a backup.

Does my fucking head in. Yes Signal is about security but that doesn't mean it can't have a functional backup feature! Honestly it needs to be priority number one imho.

This bug shows just how important backups and importing conversations are. Whenever I setup Signal on a new system I hate when I see the message "For your security, conversation history isn't transferred to new linked devices."

Signal doesn't (or at least shouldn't) get to decide what happens here. If I am having to re-register because of a Signal failure my security is not effected by importing the conversation history as it was there two minutes ago before they corrupted the database. At the very least they should make it an option even if it is disabled by default.

Apologies for the ranty nature of this comment but I am fed up with this absolutely pathetic denial that backups are important because it is "just a messaging app". AHHH!

Edit: See this reply from when I complained about the lack of backup a month ago https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25687851
I use a DFI EC700-BT! It's been so awesome I've wanted to plug them forever but haven't found a chance! So thanks for this thread!

Fanless, ECC ram, space for a drive inside but I have it attached to a usb disk tower. I got it a handful of years ago so I'm sure it's aged, but I regularly stream video from it over an SSH tunnel. It has two ethernet ports too!

And the coolest part: I was having an issue with booting due to my buggy usb disk array, and it was a pain to move it over to my desk to attach a screen to troubleshoot. I contacted DFI support and asked if they could enable console port boot, and they built and sent me a new bios image to flash with the console port boot feature!
There is no substance for most of it.

But taking Rust as example?

Rust is the one language that delivered in terms of performance and safety.
Raw IQ scores aren’t very stable over time. At 90+ peoples raw scores have dropped significantly vs age 30. Trauma, Alcoholism, and other diseases can also lower scores dramatically. You can correlate adult IQ’s with tests taken by 2 year olds, but the individual raw scores again vary significantly.

It seems stable because of how age is adjusting for and the huge sweet spot where 64.2% of the population is grouped between 85 and 115. Basically people with significant developmental disabilities at 5 don’t suddenly become normal, but an IQ of 180 at 5 isn’t stable long term.
Do you build on tmpfs? I started doing that and it makes builds ridiculously fast. $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is perfect for this, I just make a directory there and symlink the build directory to it. Even added some makefile logic to ensure the link target exists:

build_directory_link := $(shell readlink $(build_directory))
$(if $(build_directory_link),$(shell mkdir -p $(build_directory_link)))
Boiler insurance. £100 a year, includes a service, if the boiler breaks down it will be repaired or replaced. Similar thing is available for things like dishwashers and washing machines, but I have never seen the need.
yes some platforms have problems with that, one should do their research and check if the artist promotes their art on social media, their blog or sth.
And this is exactly the sort of thing that I wish it included, so I could learn about it.

It's complex, I know it's complex, and I want to know what actually happens at that awkward fuzzy boundary between hardware and software.
Ah, then it's similar to Vue (for that particular feature)

What is the nadir of a wall? The baseboard?
My understanding is that his innovation was applying gauge theory to calculating the 'real' rate of inflation. But the only academic talk of his I've seen assumed a base level of knowledge which I don't have.
This article is ranked 16th on HN first page right now, and it has 80 points, was posted 4 hours ago, and has 16 comments. A different article [1] is ranked 8th on HN right now, and it has 31 points, was also posted 4 hours ago and it has 18 comments. They were both posted about the same time, they have the same number of comments, but the article that has significantly more points is ranked significantly lower.

If I understand the HN ranking algorithm, this means this submission is heavily reported. This is not the first time I observe this behavior for anti-Google submissions. Is there a different explanation for this phenomenon other than heavy reporting?

Calling a robot dog a weapon is a stretch without more context. Why can't this be used as a communication platform to replace no-knock raids? You'd just need to equip it with a loud speaker and a short range radio for the most part.
I'm looking to further my personal goal to maintain having a roof over my head, and food to eat, while taking care of chores at a place to stay and have the rest of my time to just to be remotely researching/involved in the investing, crypto, VC, startups related industry. I think my long term goal is to one day have a investor/advisor kind of role.

I'm open to recommendations/suggestions on what I should do to further this long-term goal of mine( given my current situation I really don't want to do school and much rather furthering my capabilities as a person).

Even a email or message would be greatly appreciated.

Regardless of any principles one may hold, how could banning Trump from Twitter achieve anything positive?

They're forcing Trump to join some more right-wing friendly site. Those are way more saturated with conspiracy stuff. In effect, Twitter is inadvertently exposing his audience to way more false information, achieving the exact opposite of what is ostensibly the goal here.
I've seen a lot of Big Tech engineers make this same quip to avoid having to take any responsibility for the horrible results of their maliciously designed systems.

I think this meme usually comes with the phrase 'dafuq?'.
I would like to believe the same. The prosody folks are awesome btw (as an alternative to ejabberd).

But there are still open issues. One big one, compared to all the FB/Google/etc. offerings is the ability to have a usable chat log. Current xmpp implementations/standards are more or less useless if you happen to use more than one device and want to look something up/want to see what you wrote to your brother yesterday, on your desktop, while looking at your phone.

Mandatory extensions in my world:
- Stream Management (easy)
- Carbon Copies (easy)

No.

Stripe charges a flat 3.0% + $0.30 for each transaction, regardless of the card provider.

The other child comment proposes the likely reason for the 3-5% ambiguity; that $0.30 flat fee can have a percent impact on smaller purchases.

Yes, but on the other hand, traditionally the point of dividends is that you don't reinvest them. You should still include them in returns though. But it seems unrealistic for anyone without perfect knowledge of the future to have reinvested every penny over 30 years including the depression, WWII, and the earliest, most paranoid part of the cold war and nuclear age.
I'm not inclined to believe things prisoners say about their conditions.

So while I agree the demands are reasonable, I'm not (yet) convinced that they needed to be made or that they are ignored.

(Except for the fruits/vegetables, because realistically while they may ask for it, they aren't going to eat it.)
That's not a problem we have with hash functions; it's a problem we have with naive password storage schemes.
This is a response to a great article "Dear Designer, you suck" http://forlue.com/item?id=340

That's what I said bro. I'm a Vim user myself (and have been for a year too many) and I think it's the best thing since hot chocolate bread. I just used a semi complicated macro to edit 800 lines of a CVS document, which took me around 3 minutes to record, but saved me hours of work I would have had to spend manually doing most of it in Textmate (which I think is a really good editor, just not in the same league as Vim or Emacs) or any other modern editor for that matter.

As a Vim user I feel compelled to mix a shameless plug for my editor of choice in a conversation every time the topic shows it's head. Anyway, I think you misread my comment. I love Vim and I don't even run Windows (to run Notepad++).
This might just be the first commercially successful mainstream application of augmented reality.

> Are we really short on land, though?

We might be short on land the majority views as attractive enough to actually live on. Rural Wyoming is by no means short of land, but it's dry, desolate, windblown, and hundreds of miles from any regions with, say, hospitals, or airports, or actual grocery stores, or land that can grow something other than grass, or other frivolities of modern living. The fact that land is divided up into huge ranches is, therefore, not a huge loss for people looking for a little spread of their own; the only way the land could possibly be economically productive is in those huge ranches. A lot of it's owned by the Federal government, as well.

So it's trivially supply-and-demand, and the fact is the US, at least, has a huge supply of land for which there is essentially no demand. It's been allocated about as efficiently as it's going to be. Canada has a similar situation. Does that mean we're not short on land? Technically, perhaps not, but realistically, if the land is effectively unlivable, it might as well not exist for our purposes.

On the gripping hand everyone has a different definition of 'livable', even to the point of some people being willing to live in rehabbed ICBM silos in the wilds of North Dakota.
From 'Software Requirements & Specifications' [0], by Michael Jackson (not that Michael Jackson, and not the other one either), published in 1995, a parable [1]:

'What do you think?' he asked. He was asking me to tell him my impressions of his operation and his staff. 'Pretty good,' I said. 'You've got some good people there.' Program design courses are hard work; I was very tired; and staff evaluation consultancy is charged extra. Anyway, I knew he really wanted to tell me his own thoughts.

'What did you think of Fred?' he asked. 'We all think Fred is brilliant.' 'He's very clever,' I said. 'He's not very enthusiastic about methods, but he knows a lot about programming.' 'Yes,' said the DP Manager. He swivelled round in his chair to face a huge flowchart stuck to the wall: about five large sheets of line printer paper, maybe two hundred symbols, hundreds of connecting lines. 'Fred did that. It's the build-up of gross pay for our weekly payroll. No one else except Fred understands it.' His voice dropped to a reverent hush. 'Fred tells me that he's not sure he understands it himself.'

'Terrific,' I mumbled respectfully. I got the picture clearly. Fred as Frankenstein, Fred the brilliant creator of the uncontrollable monster flowchart. 'But what about Jane?' I said. 'I thought Jane was very good. She picked up the program design ideas very fast.'

'Yes,' said the DP Manager. 'Jane came to us with a great reputation. We thought she was going to be as brilliant as Fred. But she hasn't really proved herself yet. We've given her a few problems that we thought were going to be really tough, but when she finished it turned out they weren't really difficult at all. Most of them turned out pretty simple. She hasn't really proved herself yet --- if you see what I mean?'

I saw what he meant.

The actual cost of constructing a house is almost meaningless in most areas people want to live. What your paying for is the infrastructure around houses. So, if we really want cheap housing find out how to make cheap roads, bridges, water and sewer systems, electrical systems, schools, hospitals, ... etc.

That said, people are also living in much larger houses with more amenity's like AC, and dishwashers.

PS: There is a completely reasonable argument that building a new house or apartment complex should pay their fair share of existing infrastructure ~10k-50+k/person in most areas. That this does not happen is simply a form of corruption as zoning becomes a quick way to massively change the value of land after purchase.
>No? I bet I've spent more years in Africa than you have
This sound like an appeal to non-authority. How does seeing someone fishing with a mosquito net discount the fact that malaria deaths have been decreasing for 20 years? (a point you chose to ignore, by the way).

Africa is not a monolith: it's 54-countries strong with a multitude of cultures (I'd bet you'd be hard-pressed to find a "local witch doctor" in Tunis).

You are entitled to your opinion, just because you live there doesn't automatically make you an expert. I too have spent my entire life in (southern) Africa.
In my experience: not really noticeable. I think people like the idea but in real use with a blind taste test I'd be surprised if people noticed a difference. Of those who could discern a difference, ask them how much extra they would pay or what other features they would be willing to give up (battery life, size, et. al.) You want stereo? Put your headphones on, and it will sound better to boot.

Besides, how important is audio fidelity when you're watching movies on a five inch screen? Can barely see the faces of the actors, but hot diggity does it sound good.
True, but the GPL wasn't widely used until Linux took off in the mid-90's, roughly 20 years ago. So I was off by a few years, you're right.

(But I'd say the idea of free/libre software certainly predates even the GNU manifesto.)
33% for each one + 1% for me :)

More seriously, as you said, software and hardware are never finished, so an equal split is better. Once you get users you will find thousands of small details that must be improved. You will need a version 2. If a provider close, you will have to redesign the hardware with the new components. If Apple decide to change the AppStore guidelines you will have to adapt the soft, ...

I'd recommend the “Joel's Totally Fair Method to Divide Up The Ownership of Any Startup”: now located in http://www.brightjourney.com/q/forming-new-software-startup-... (Note: I don't like the IUO very much.)

It's tough for me to think that Yahoo! didn't "understand security," and yet, their entire user database was ganked. I have to assume that they were doing everything they could to implement all of the white paper suggestions and consulting recommendations they could get their hands on. I also presume they were running the largest, most-expensive "security" products that they could buy. The depressing thought that struck me at the time was: if one of the biggest web properties to ever exist couldn't figure out how to secure their database, what hope do the rest of us have? (Maybe I'm being naive; I've never seen a disclosure on the nature of the intrusion.)

All of this sort of thing leads me to think that there is currently a huge mismatch between the security products industry, and how companies implement all the conflicting white paper snake oil, and what the ACTUAL vulnerabilities are. And I know how stupid this mismatch winds up making the average Fortune 500 worker bee's daily life. But that's a topic for another post.
