165,854 | null | null | I agree with parent's point to focus on defence, because a) defence is where the US leadership, but arguably also large parts of society, horribly failed and b) defence lies within your locus of control.<p>Before the pandemic, the US was actually rated #1 for endemic preparedness. No one had imagined that wearing a piece of cloth to protect others would become a political statement. No one was dreaming of the loss of half a million (!) American lives being remotely acceptable.<p>I would even go so far as to argue that from a psychological perspective the situation is similar to losing a war.

The latter has been banned a few times due to the risk (see below). Both A and B were happening in Wuhan.<p>"In 2014, after a series of accidents involving mishandled pathogens at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the NIH announced that it would stop funding gain-of-function research into certain viruses — including influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) — that have the potential to unleash a pandemic or epidemic if they escaped from the lab.

165,859 | null | null | That was a really good read. I see this happening all over the Tampa Bay area. But I also see the opposite, where once-blighted structures are transformed into beautiful establishments. Grand Cathedral Cigars [1] is one I like to mention, as I have close ties to the area that's been an extremely high crime area for decades. It's turned around quite a bit recently, and seemingly abandoned structures like the old church which Grand Cathedral occupies, are being repurposed rather than torn asunder. There's a running joke about "up and coming neighborhoods" in the Tampa Bay area, but there is visible progress and fewer parking lots being created in place of structure.<p>[1] <a href="https://grandcathedralcigars.com/" rel="nofollow">https://grandcathedralcigars.com/</a> | null | andrew_ | null | 1,627,085,226 | "2021-07-24T00:07:06Z" | comment | 27,937,180 | 27,930,128 | null | null | null |

165,869 | null | null | > This kind of article is basically saying "I have reset my expectations so that I accept a higher risk of death so I can go to the movies".<p>Correct. This is a rational stance, even if you disagree.<p>Over the decades, I've observed that US society starts to break down when there is a danger of an unknown origin or bounds. People become irrational and panic, resulting in all sorts of defensive behavior in the face of uncertainty (some of these rituals are helpful, some not). This is true at both the macro and micro level; eg fear of getting sued, fear of computers, fear of selling collectibles.<p>US society has an expectation of informed consent. Crossing the street has inherent dangers. Juggling chainsaws has inherent dangers. Skydiving has inherent dangers. If US society has been largely convinced that there is codified information that both sets relative-risk and laws regarding liability exist, activities are considered "normal life" with whatever inherent dangers are "known".<p>I would call this known state, a narrative, but it's more like the meta-narrative across all areas. There are constant changes to these qualities, over time and space, so this affects it; eg It used to be illegal for a vehicle to turn right on red in some areas of the US, without prohibitive signage. Is that still true? The meta-narrative says that laws between states are kooky and you might want to look it up. Spoiler: it's legal in all 50 states since 1980ish. edit: not in NYC, among other cities as tootie has pointed out.<p>For now the meta-narrative around COVID has stabilized to: We know it's a virus. We know it's communicable by air. We know the risk groups (or can look it up). We know the defensive protocols. et al.<p>> Personally I think the Omicron wave is still extremely serious and we need to wait a few more months.<p>This doesn't require a retooling of society, reaffirmation of doubting the science, or theorizing about potential worst case scenarios. A large portion of the US public is done with the handwringing and fearmongering. You can wait as long as you want. It won't change anything about the world you adopt as the new normal. Life is more dangerous than it was a few years decade ago because there's a new vector. There is no end, much like if you get cancer or lose a limb. Life is just harder now, for everyone for the foreseeable future. | null | Supermancho | null | 1,642,000,669 | "2022-01-12T15:17:49Z" | comment | 29,907,497 | 29,906,841 | null | null | null |

165,897 | null | null | Our use cases are almost certainly different, but I can think of no ways I’ve had to workaround or deal with scaling. AWS seems super happy to let you use as much data as you possibly can (obviously).<p>Yes, registration can be complex! JIT reg, JIT provision, PSK reg at birth, certs, keys, tokens. We’re even doing something really goofy because our device never touched the internet directly, always through a middleman, so it’s been double complex and revolves around custom authorization and temporary tokens. I see how we could simplify by doing JIT-R with PKI but don’t have the resources on the device. I don’t fault the providers for making it seem like it’s complex, it definitely can be!<p>I suppose it’s annoying that a “job” in AWS costs $0.03 per device, and that can be any issued job using their API. So you “could” use their setup to reset() but mostly it’s their OTA Update agent which is good, but when you’re looking at 100k eventual devices, every firmware update is $3k. Which is also fine if it’s an update you need. If it isn’t, you threw away $3k. The OTA Agent is very good though, rollbacks, logging, canary rollout, etc.<p>I worked right with AWS on this project so Azure or GCP wasn’t an option. And now I know the system so it’s unlikely as a small team I’ll look into Azure next time. But I guess that’s how it goes. | null | SlowRobotAhead | null | 1,588,182,286 | "2020-04-29T17:44:46Z" | comment | 23,021,979 | 23,021,808 | null | null | null |

165,910 | null | null | I've only used GraphQL at my last two gigs, and didn't work with it full time. So there's a massive grain of salt. I think GraphQL is _mostly_ fine as a technology, but it seems incredibly easy to misuse and abuse. Particularly the fact that you can write arbitrary resolvers for specific fields and include any amount of business logic you like. It blurs the line between GQL being an interface to your API and actually being the API, and invariably it seems that too much logic gets put into resolvers because it's so easy.<p>As far as I can tell, one of the best ways to use GraphQL is as a sort of RPC framework. At which point, my question becomes why not just use an actual RPC framework? Personally I find the field filtering and reduced network I/O to be overblown. Anecdotally, most of the GQL queries I've seen request HUGE amounts of data up front to reduce the number of overall requests that need to be made. Obviously not saying that's everyone's usage, but in my experience GQL has never really been much of a value add. | null | soggybutter | null | 1,660,054,640 | "2022-08-09T14:17:20Z" | comment | 32,398,304 | 32,366,759 | null | null | null |

165,942 | null | null | Q10 was a great form factor... and BB10's swipe methodology and permission control were great. Sadly they couldn't compete with Android and were really headstrong.<p>Give me a Q10 with a higher resolution display, better camera, USB C, and you got yourself a banger.<p>Sadly the Key2 physically was a step back from the comfort of the KeyOne. I hope this device actually stacks up, or they finally decide to make an official physical keyboard attachment for some other popular devices | null | Lorin | null | 1,597,881,878 | "2020-08-20T00:04:38Z" | comment | 24,218,368 | 24,212,959 | null | null | null |

165,944 | null | null | But the setting doesn't have to get rid of a warning, we're discussing requiring the right-click to even show the option of running the software.<p>Gatekeeper right now won't even allow you to run an application unless you somehow know and remember to right-click. This is sadistic. Many well-informed users won't even know about it and even more will forget to right-click on the first try. This is far from "forcing the user to make a choice about each binary". It's clear Apple doesn't want users to even be aware that there is a choice. | null | themacguffinman | null | 1,597,881,830 | "2020-08-20T00:03:50Z" | comment | 24,218,364 | 24,217,709 | null | null | null |
