If you limit to just Taiwan or Hong Kong where SARS was pretty bad, you get 0.6 and 4.4 respectively. At that point, it's less of a good comparison as you should apply the same focusing in for influenza.

Also, that's looking at the US mortality rate for influenza which is particularly low. The worldwide average is 5.9, with regions ranging from 4.5-6.2 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6815659/).

Part of the value of having a relationship with someone is that they are a competent being in their own right. If they stick with someone when it is clearly not in their self interest (e.g. not caring for a disable spouse, but putting up with abuse), even if that abuse is at your own hand, the value of that person drops in your estimation.

BBC's quality is very shit "as of late" (more like the past 5 years at least).

This has been known for years if not decades(even more to actual smokers).It's not magic, it's the human body.

It's the reason why people still smoke even though they know it's bad (usually people with very high physical activity: drivers, etc).People with less physical activity can drop smoking faster because they're tenfold more affected by it.

Smoking is bad,especially if one does very little physical activity.There's a very deep psychological explanation for people's desire to smoke (besides entourage,desire to 'fit in',etc), which is that people literally forget to breathe in our societies.This is due to a long list of reasons: sedentary lives, stress, imposed 'time' schedules that force us to deny the needs of our bodies, less desire to breathe due to low quality of oxygen,etc.

BBC using the word magically here is very hypocritical, knowing that they'd jump to disprove any narratives that contradict their own agendas at any given time.BBC knows this is not magic, but then again mass-media in US and other places is thankfully dying, sparing our lives from the miserable, garbage tier articles of this kind.

I wish young people, under 25 or so, could live a couple of days in your shoes or my moms shoes. She was an alcoholic with a pack a day habit for 20+ years. She isn’t 60 yet and she has a litany of health issues: degenerative disk disease, hardened arteries (can barely walk), heart disease, chronic nerve pain, many secondary issues from there. No exercise and a poor diet, depression, etc. it seems so innocent like you have forever ahead of you. Then 5, 10, 20 years roll by and your body is fucked. It’s so hard to think just one cigarette, one drink, or one hit of a drug can ruin you, but for some people that is all it takes. Young minds just don’t have the tools to weigh the opportunity cost. I am not saying it should be illegal or anything (the opposite), but it really sucks and there are plenty of regrettable stories like yours and my mothers.

tl;dr: starlink and its competitors pose serious Earth-based observation problems across the spectrum (§§4.1-4.2) especially for faint variable objects which require long exposures and for which any missed pixels matter.

Somepeople definitely love the device. It depends on what these things mean to you. My iPhone is fine for reading for me. Paperback novels aren't as large as ipads. The column width in a print magazine and newspaper isn't as large as an ipad, it's about as wide as my iphone screen. Text wrap is important for comfortable reading. Therefore, in my eyes, having something larger than it needs to be to actually read is a waste.

Similarly, the web isn't any better on an ipad vs. an iphone; its the same mobile website but with more white space to fill the scale.

I could never stand gaming on a touch screen device, personally. I know people play fortnight on their phones these days, but I can't stand the lack of tactile response with virtual thumb sticks and the fact you have to block the screen with your thumbs to do anything at all. Games tailored to the device, like tap tap revenge, were fun but only for 10 minute spurts.

I get the merit of having a 12" light weight screen that connects to the internet, but apple hasn't sold me on the utility to make it worth dropping the couple hundred bucks, especially when my phone does it all while also being a phone.

Maybe for high resolution geoid / gravimetric data. But even it's starting to get publicly published. (Coincidentally starting around the time we began rolling out missile defense.)
Assuming all pictures are same orientation / angle - maybe use some facial dimensional metrics to decide by finding an expected mean for each distribution (cute / not cute) during round one. Then analyze each pets distance from the expected mean for each metric and combine the expected distances. Use the combined deviation from the expected value for cuteness to rank all the pets.. You could use confidence intervals to require further rounds if the metrics aren't conclusive.

Mainly geographic positioning due to lack of road infrastructure and reliable utilities.

> We're just frustrated because with a little bit of thought at the operating system level, the device would also be capable of doing a lot of other things well, without any sacrifice to the all of the existing apps and workflows that make the device popular.

I wonder how true this really is? Removing the need for files or composability was a “feature” of the iPad from the beginning. To simplify things. For example, add in more native support for a real file system from the beginning, and many of the apps that were designed without a file system /composability in mind now is designed completely differently, and may no longer work as well/simply as the current users experience them today.

I don’t pretend to have a crystal ball and know how things “might’ve been”, but I think saying that by supporting a native file system/composability, things would be “the same but better” may be a bit naive.

My Mum smoked a pack a day for 30 years, quit when she was about 50, and passed away a year ago from Lung Cancer at the age of 67.

The kicker with lung cancer is that it doesn't really have any symptoms, and most people don't know they've got it until the cancer has metastasized and shows up somewhere else. That's more-or-less a death sentence.

Please do yourself a favor and get tested every ~6 months. (I know there are a lot of people that say false positives do more harm than good, and I still believe you're better to get tested if you smoked a pack a day for >10 years)

Unless the comment has been edited, they never claimed they were "the average".

The claimed that most people aren't going to use 100 MB/s 24/7/365 and gave themselves as an example.

Their data point is useful, as the chance of the typical user downloading 263,974 GB a month when they download 4 GB is incredibly low.

Even if they were an outlier, it's far more reasonable to think that they are an outlier by using far more data, not far less data, then typical. Their data point remains useful even if they are an outlier.

To reiterate - they never claimed to be average or an outlier, in fact there is no claim like that at all.

One data point is better than none.

Political party elected for money reasons that ignores science is a symptom of the problem, it is not the problem itself. Outdated laws and electoral two-party system is the problem.

I disagree. Powerful people and institutions actively protect their interest. Laws and precedents are protected when there are interests that benefit from them.

IE, anti-democratic institutions survive because people protect them. They are the symptom and money driving the system is the cause.

The financial results from the link don't show a $800 million loss for this year.

From that document in the FINANCIAL SUMMARY section there are these quarterly profit/loss number:

Income (loss) from operations
Q1-2019 Q2-2019 Q3-2019 Q4-2019
-522 -167 261 359

So for the first half of the year Tesla did lose 689 million dollars.

But for the whole year that was only a loss of 69 million dollars.

I think what the market likes is the Tesla cash position.

If you look at those it would appear Tesla is no longer burning cash.

Cash and cash equivalents
Q4-2018 Q1-2019 Q2-2019 Q3-2019 Q4-2019 QoQ YoY

The fact that the year on year cash position grew by 70% would be pretty comforting to shareholders.
Yeah, it will be hard for Q1 to be as bad as last year, but it doesn’t look pretty from there.
My view is that while it shouldn't matter, collecting a database of such information is potentially dangerous enough to society to require regulation - particularly when it is most dangerous in the hands of the very same government you would ask to regulate itself.

"Functional programming" is a term with a few meanings.

Notably, the paper that (I believe) coined the term, "Can Programming be Liberated from the Von Neumann Style?" by John Backus, spent a fair amount of ink on specifically calling lisp out, and contrasting it from what he had in mind. IIRC, he felt that FP was preferable to the lisp model because lisp gives you too much power: Mutable variables, ways of composing functions that are potentially more error prone due to domain/range mismatch gotchas, stuff like that could all be impediments to ensuring the correctness of programs. I think that, to some extent, a sort of Haskellian fastidiousness about correctness is what he felt this proposed functional style of programming was all about.

Network authentication is not the same as application authentication.

If I plug a cable into your LAN, I am not subject to MFA to login to a server on your LAN.

If you have a lock on the network port that requires me to type in a PIN code and stick in a key to unlock, and expose the port, that then results in MFA to connect to your network. Your applications behind your network remain without MFA.

MFA VPN is essentially the same thing as the above, but for remote access to the LAN. Applications should still be properly secured.

I suppose it could be argued that this provides a client-side agent to authenticate the end user as well (mumble mumble 802.1x), and if so, then it's arguable whether or not you need another layer of authentication on the application, or if this qualifies as SSO to authenticate you to everything you have access to in the network (so passwordless login to servers, desktops, webapps, etc)
> I thought the Y was most similar to the X? Am I missing something?

The Y is a crossover SUV like the X, but based off the Model 3 platform/chassis; what I'm really surprised by is the notion that they will build these in Fremont!

I actually interviewed at the Fremont Factory in '17 in logistics, the factory was a at Max capacity even with the low 3 numbers being produced. In 18-19 they hit their stride and started to use auxiliary lots:

https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/found-a-lot-of-model...

They stated that at full capacity and with a successful ramp up 3 would overwhelm their storage capacity, so turn around was critical with little to margin for error; if anyone remembers all the Tesla employee parking lots were full and created a parking nightmare. Well, the outbound deliveries were equally bad. The shutdowns and refitting of the assembly lines showed just how drastic things were for a while.

They overcame this and I'm glad they did as they are now offering the 35k base model 3 as was announced in the beginning which was the 'game changer,' but I'm also glad I turned down the offer in the end, especially because they don't seem to be utilizing their Sparks and Shanghai factory for this model which would probably be best as S/X/3 are still being made in Fremont. Then again that stock price leap to 600 is pretty nice, just not worth the stress induced heart attack or stroke at 40.

I wonder where Semi/Roadster II/Cybertruck are being made then. I honestly thought they'd consider doing the Roadster II at Fremont for that extra 'Made in California' cache to match its price tag, but not the Y.
