You’re being downvoted, and I don’t agree with the conclusion you’re drawing or the framing of it as a positive thing, but I find it surprising how many people are uncomfortable with the notion that global warming is fundamentally about population control. I don’t think there’s a realistic long term solution to global warming that doesn’t implicitly include mass sterilization (through policy and incentives) and, as a result, what amounts to genocide. The earth can’t support an infinite amount of people, and if the natural tendency is for the earths population to grow beyond what the environment can support, that means that the right to exist on this planet will become a limited resource that’s subject to all the same economic rules as any other limited resource. Don’t forget that the main contributor to global warming is agriculture, not SUVs.

I think it’s morally cheap of people to talk about the seriousness of global warming and the necessity of solving it without thinking far out about what sort of world they’re imagining. There must be global one child policies. They must be enforced strongly. Consumption must be limited. And it’s all dependent on the idea that all governments are unified enough to enforce policies against their people that run against basic human desires, while also holding every other government accountable for enacting similar policies, and none is corrupt enough to break the rules.

I agree that global warming is real. I agree that it’s an incredible danger to humanity. But when you consider the type of world necessary to actually follow through with fixing global warming, you come to the conclusion that it’s a world that’s best ruled by a totalitarian global government where the norm is that most are robbed of basic human experiences like eating well and having children. Is that even a world worth saving?

So to those responding that this parent comment is in bad taste, I agree, but I am someone who is doesn’t believe in trying stopping global warming to begin with, so I’m allowed to not see a silver lining in mass death. Are you? If you’re not okay with my parent comments reasoning but you do believe that global warming must be stopped, I have to wonder what you think solving global warming is going to be like in a few hundred years, and if you’re prepared for the moral hazards much worse than this.

> This won't happen here because the severe strain will die out.

Can you please elaborate why this is the case? What if mild cases stay home while patients with severe cases go out looking for medical care, spreading it around? I know nothing about epidemiology, virology, etc. so I would appreciate a little hand-holding.
I have followed the news closely, the CFR might decrease a bit in Hubei because China has reinforced it with 20,000 medical staff and hospitals. They also have found some better treatments (not a cure, to be clear).

The approx. 20% hospitalization figure is the elephant in the room. Even if reduced to 10% or 5%, it would still overwhelm medical resources of any country.

The point is if a country gets complacent, it could be too late to contain it without drastic measures and mass sufferings.
Maybe a PAPR?
Exactly, these product-spotlight ads are always designed to pull people into the site, not just sell individual products.

Quite cheeky, considering Etsy itself is really made by it's sellers - what is it otherwise, than just an e-commerce enabler like shopify etc.

That sucks! But the real lesson should be that you do not expose your database on the internet (0.0.0.0 vs 127.0.0.1). That way it doesn’t matter if you leak your .env via your webserver. Never expose sensitive services.

A 193-Amino Acid Fragment of the SARS CoronaVirus S Protein Binds ACE2
Not surprising that a guy with a username of a company that shills for China is spouting apologist nonsense. Imagine praising a government that has not been transparent with a deadly disease not just once with COVID-19 but with SARS many years back leading to so many unnecessary deaths. Not to mention - how do you expect people to take action when the CCP actively withheld crucial information about the virus and to this day refuses to cooperate with the CDC?
I'm confused about the Coronavirus mortality figures. The published numbers appear to be computed as deaths/cases. But cases is growing exponentially and deaths take time.

If you use deaths/(deaths+recoveries) you get a much higher figure, but presumably recoveries take longer than deaths.
Incarcerating the uncooperative is how we enforce most laws.

And yes, there is a Memex extension for Firefox and yes it is Open Source IIRC and yes they have a funding model that doesn't need to include spying on user data.

I'm still somewhat careful though: as recent experience has told us being a paying user doesn't necessarily mean you aren't also sold as a product. In my case I have a research browser (a Firefox instance) and another mail, timesheets and internal apps browser (another separate Firefox installation).
It seems like this depends on your types? If you are storing user input to a database using a text field, it's best to assume the field can contain arbitrary text, since the database allows that. But if you're storing the input into a number field then it must be parsed as a number and you can assume it's a number. If you constrained the number field to a certain range then you can assume the number is in that range.

Storing arbitrary text is common, so we usually need to know how to render it correctly. There are fancier types and constraints, though.

That's exactly why people will ignore the symptoms till they fall dead. This virus will be an interesting lesson for both China and America: China will learn the cost of being too authoritarian, since people there are afraid to seek help, and America will learn the cost of greed, since people here are afraid to well.. seek help, but for financial reasons.

> To the contrary, modern C++ has solved very few, if any, of the problems described in the article.

The author, after a long and dubious appeal to authority, claims that:

* C++ exceptions are outright evil and should be avoided

* C++ string class "is so utterly godawfully stupid" because it has no garbage collection or refcounting, and in short doesn't precisely match Python's implementation. He also felt personally insulted by the fact std::string is a template class.

* He feels C function pointers are fine but believes function pointers in C++ weren't extended to support pointers to member functions, which he then backtracks and says they actually exist but they are "so horrendously ill-conceived that absolutely nobody uses it for anything", thus showing his ignorance and lack of experience.

* For some reason he criticised std::map for the way it's std::map::operator[] returns a reference to the mapped value, eventhough that's what it is supposed to do by design and by the principle of least surprise.

* The author made other claims, but the text grows so much in the style of "foaming from the mouth" that it's just better to stop reading after a point.

In short, this article is just a rant where someone vents that a programming language other than Python is not Python at the eyes of the author. It's a pretty unconvincing rant and full of logical and rational holes, but a rant nonetheless. So the author loves Python and his personal take on C++ does not match his view of Python. That's fine. It's just weird how this sort of text floats up in a technical forum after over a decade after it has been published, as if it's expected to add or say anything of value.

Trim Fast Keto
Getting into ketosis requires some investment – from a couple of days to about fourteen days. Your body contains a ton of put away sugar as glucose, and you won't have the option to enter ketosis until these stores have been drained. Put away glucose is called glycogen. Glycogen is simply glucose and water bound together. Your body stores some glycogen in your liver, and the rest is in your muscles. The normal human can store around 500 grams of glycogen, which is equivalent to around one pound.
At the point when you cut carbs from your eating routine, your body will begin running down your stores of carbs, yet you won't yet be in ketosis. You won't have enough glucose for vitality however won't have changed to utilizing ketones for vitality either. Being stuck in a tight spot frequently brings about an assortment of reactions called the keto influenza.

> I feel like we need some form of regulation

That's crazy. Etsy is not the market, it is a market. If you don't like it, you move somewhere else.

We already have too much regulation that for some fields it's impossible to start a business without jumping through many hoops. Last thing we need is to start regulating on a per-business basis.

This is really a case of giving up your store brand/independence for convenience. Starting an online store is not hard these days, everybody should host their own if they are serious about their business.
The claim of no dependencies isn't there as some grandiose statement about reduction of complexity, it's there to describe how self contained the project is and our ability to change things. I'm going to refer to a comment I already made elsewhere in this thread:

> Considering this is just a source code dump and call for possible contributors I'm disappointed it was even posted to Hacker News. Rome is not ready at all for public consumption. I wanted it open sourced so I could work with other tooling authors and contributors.

Those things you are asking will come at a time when Rome is actively being marketed as a tool for users rather than an experimental project for contributors.

The other issue is they claimed to be hands off to customers, obviously within the bounds of the law.

The sad truth is this - distasteful as DS/Anglin is, he was not running afoul of the law. Matthew Prince unilaterally decided to reverse 200+ years of 1A jurisprudence for one of its customers because he disagreed with their views.

These Matthew Prince types are the same assclowns who sue Christian bakeries for refusing to adorn wedding cakes with 2 male or 2 female figures when they exercise their 1A rights to discriminate based in faith preferences.

Typical nonsense from Doomers like you, with nothing substantial to add to the conversation.

They’ve shared plenty of information, including the damn genome of the virus itself, immediately after it was discovered to have an unknown signature.

And what is the CDC going to do that will be helpful anyways? Are they going to send a bunch of English speaking scientists into Wuhan, to communicate with people who speak in Chinese? How will that help? They’ll need to be babysat, and provided a translator, and special accommodations, when China is in crisis mode.

It's one of the option greeks. The original definition is basically the partial derivative of option price wrt time, i.e. it's the amount by which an option would lose in value per unit of time, when all else is equal. It's always negative.

Theta gang just means someone who sells options and expects that option to expire worthless, thereby profiting from the slow decay of option value due to theta. It's a legitimate strategy in the options world for professionals, not just for WSB autists. Here's a random example of a finance professional running this strategy successfully in his personal account: https://earlyretirementnow.com/2019/03/27/passive-income-thr...

Disclaimer: I don't know this person, nor do I recommend copying his strategy if you don't know the options greeks; actually the amount of money you would need to execute his strategy would probably make most options beginner uncomfortable anyways.
