That's not so true in the UK, here is a map of electrification from 2010 [0]. The only major difference is the Great Western Mainline (from London to Wales) is now electrified as far as Cardiff. A lot of passenger trains are still powered by diesel, and for freight trains I believe diesel is used in even higher proportions.

I’m pretty sure I’m related to an honest-to-goodness flat earther. The first time he brought it up I countered by professing a belief in Last-Thursdayism[0] as a sort of absurdist ploy to get him arguing for the more rational position. I think I converted him to Last-Thursdayism instead.

Actually yes, the incident has had an unprecedented impact on the Internet. People have sharply criticized the actions of the Wuhan government and supported the doctor, and the central government has demanded an explanation from them. Finally, the Wuhan government also apologized. The whole incident is a lesson for China. If you want to know if people are aware of this or still be insensitive. I haven't done scientific statistics, but my 80 yr grandma told me that this doctor is a great man, we need to speak for him, and the government should apologize for it.
On the question of use of tests, and detection in individuals much less clusters, this note is from /r/AskNYC this evening:

Hello,

Just giving a heads up to what I and my doctor both considered a very fucked up situation. I just spent a week in Japan, a country at high risk for COVID-19. I wore a mask and essentially tried to stay away from most touristy places (not my first time there), but trains and stations are still packed with people, so there's really not much you can do.

On arriving back to America (3 days ago), I developed a 102F fever, coughing, and aches. I went to a local hospital in Brooklyn's ER. I informed them of my travel, they provided me a mask, and redirected me to a private room and followed infection protocols (full face covers, gloves, aprons, etc.). I had a chest x-ray and testing for flu/cold/pneumonia/and about 25 other viruses. They all came back negative.

At this point, the hospital called the CDC requesting permission to perform the COVID-19 testing. The CDC denied the request on the ground that I did not have the most life-threatening symptoms: chest pain and shortness of breath. According to everything I read it's very likely not to have these symptoms if you're in your 30's and relatively healthy.

And... that was that. They discharged me, said I don't have Corona virus, since they didn't test me for it, and said I can ride the subway, return to work, do whatever I want.

Of course my doctor disagreed. She said I should treat myself as if I am infected. My partner is currently staying in a nearby hotel since we live in a studio apartment. I've performed a self-quarantine for 14 days. Fortunately I can work from home and my partner can deliver me groceries if I run out.

But I don't think that many people are aware of the fact that they're actively not testing people for COVID-19, even people who have travel history to high-risk places.

Do I still have symptoms? Yes, Fever is current 101.6 (as of a couple hours ago), aches, and a cough that is persistent. I'm taking Tylenol and drinking a lot of water.

Do I just have the flu? Well, not according to my screens I don't.

Is this real? It's as real as I said it is. I returned from Japan. I'm sick. The symptoms are similar to COVID19 and I was refused testing.

You can believe whatever you want, I don't care.

A channel NY1 reporter reached out to connect with the individual, so perhaps if validated, it won’t “stay hidden very long”. And to your point, it’s not a cluster. But how would you have a cluster if each given patient is handled this way?

The individual case is less interesting than the protocol.

EDIT: Now reported by media: https://abc7ny.com/5974999/
Really, care to share any examples? Is California on the no-fly list?

The HIMSS protocol is basically PR B.S. with a bunch of half measures like:

- “Attendees should not travel to HIMSS20 if they are feeling unwell.”

- “HIMSS is providing guidelines and updates to conference attendee hotels on healthy procedures and tips.”

- “HIMSS20 will be a handshake-free meeting. We recommend the HIMSS elbow tap.”

- “There will be an increased number of hand sanitation sites available“

It is not preparedness. If you have active virus it stays on, get one of the staff as in the cruise and if he or she has no symptoms... it is not individual preparedness. It helps but not that much.
No... It's just a matter of empathy and common sense. You shouldn't need to solicit feedback for someone to tell you they have no idea what the pomodoro technique is.
That would bankrupt travel insurance companies.
Las Vegas is hosting it's third largest annual convention (130,000) on March 10 [1], though that has few international attendees. The fourth largest (100,000) in late April is notably international [2].

Worth noting that unlike GDC, both of these conventions feature equipment that is too expensive to demo at a customer site. Disruption of either of these two conventions will come at a cost.

And my whole response is that that notion of "shouldn't" reflects an aesthetic or moral argument and not a technical one. How Go is implemented says nothing about whether Go is a good language or not.

It's good to pay attention. Be alert, but do not panic.

Don't fall into the trap of thinking "it couldn't happen to me". It can happen to you, so pay attention, and figure out what your best course of action is while you are able.
You have, I think, accurately identified the problem which religions try to solve.

Also, please don’t think yourself above, as you say, “The vast majority of people”. You yourself are like this too (and me). It’s just that you have different things which you think are important. It’s only when we aren’t attached to any particular view that any of us can reason with any semblance of logic. Which is why, I guess, that some religions urge detachment.

Google hosts YouTube and the ads for YouTube on the same domain with obfuscated paths, so that won't work. About all you can do if you want to use the app is pay for premium or use something like Vanced which unlocks the premium features without paying.

The main reason content blocking works is because anyone can introspect webpages and the source is available for modification. When things become byte-compiled it gets exponentially harder, if not impossible.
At bsides this year they showed exactly that.

It does not appear he's uploaded slides yet but here is link to session: https://bsidessf2020.sched.com/event/Ybgu/break-crypto-like-...

He said he was going to check in his code to GitHub so may be able to find same with some detective work.

Essentially you could xor two encrypted images with the same OTP and see them sort of superimposed on one another.
> But how do you know they're using the same one?

You can easily discover reused keys if you can guess any part of either plaintext. From that guessed fragment, you can recover both plaintexts and the entire key (pad) using the "Zig Zag" method.

(P=plaintext, C=cyphertext, K=reused_pad, ⊕=XOR)

If we capture two ciphertexts that reused the same key

C1 = P1 ⊕ K
C2 = P2 ⊕ K

Then combining the ciphertexts cancels the key

D = C1 ⊕ C2 = P1 ⊕ P2

The resulting D is also the plaintexts XORed together. If you can guess any part of either plaintext - a standard header or commonly used words (like "weather" or "Heil Hitler") - then XORing that guess with D reveals part of the other plaintext at the same position. Once a plausible match is found, the rest of the decryption is relatively easy: zig-zaging guesses of neighboring words extending out from the original guess.

Professor Brailsford's explanation[1] of the method on Computerphile is nice introduction to this type of cryptanalysis.

It really depends on what you think the risk level is. The theater holds about 3500 people.

If you believe the numbers, about 1 in 35000 people in mainland China has the [active] virus. If you filled the theater with random mainlanders, independent of if they are obviously sick, you would get a sick attendee once in 10 events.

Historically OTP where shared as physical pads of paper with a different sheet of paper for each message. This is useful as lost messages did not stop communication. If a sheet did not decode the message then try the next sheet.

However, this meant there where leftover bits of each key. Though if you think of each bit as a different key then sure, just start each message with the offset.
I have flu right now and so does the rest of my family (got tested). We all had flu shots but I guess they aren't very effective this year. The illness has been very mild but that's likely because of the shot.

I don’t want to argue about magazines (or newspapers) in general, since it seems you have quite a cynical view there. I’d advise that you research common standards of journalism, including the concept of the editorial/advertising wall.

But I’ll tell you that the the existence of GNN itself, in 1993, was certainly not for the purpose of serving ads. Heck, as I explained, online advertising didn’t even exist at that time (besides a few misguided attempts on Usenet), so there was only conjecture that it might work at all, and lots of room to experiment.

Also, there was really no other economic revenue model accessible to us, other than sponsored content, as there were no online payment systems on the WWW of that era. Heck, there weren’t really any active websites at all — almost all sites (including GNN) were what we’d today call static sites. (As I mentioned, cookies came later, so there was also zero targeting of ads besides basic demographics of Internet users at the time.)
Really glad this was posted.

It is absolutely insane to be in the position where essential medical equipment is not going to be available in the US because of COVID19 quarantine in China.

What the absolute F are we paying US Pharma 1000% premiums for, if not in part to maintain control over supply chain.

Shameful.

Lots of people. I'm responsible for a few hundred dollars of consumption from my Instagram ads for festival gear.

We send each other concert ads over Insta far too often for it not to be effective.

Either way, though, neither of our experiences tell the whole story. The truth is in the metrics and I used to be in the ad tech industry. The metrics are solid. Especially on the guys who own the platform: Google w/ search and Facebook which just attracts users like nothing else on its properties.
Yeah, he's overlooking the entire field of climate science and all the associated environmental sciences that predict to an amazing level of detail the impact of climate change in each and every imaginable location in the planet.

We know exactly what the Arctic is going to look like and its impacts. We have known and are observing the melting of glaciers in the Alps, Andes and Himalayas to catastrophic effects in downstream environments.

Anything is subject to debunking if you're unwilling to look at the most sophisticated evidence available. Unfortunately, there is no model that will tell you that a 4 degree increase in average temperature won't end most of human society as we know it.
Many people who sysadmin machines/networks/routers in disparate places name them after their closest major/international three-letter airport code. I have a bunch of boxes named 'ewr{1,2,3}', 'sfo{1,2,3}', et c.

You will frequently see this in traceroutes, for router hostnames. Some people use the meta-airport-codes (e.g. NYC instead of JFK/LGA) too.

produces repayable archives in a format that doesn't have the issues of WARC. It's a work in progress tho and currently archives everything, instead of just what you select.

You can of course edit the archive by hand. it's very simple to do, but not as simple as being able to select only what you want.

I think there's a whitelist Domain option that works per archive.
People do not like having their plans disrupted, regardless of reasons. I'm not saying that they'd go regardless of safety, i'm saying they're looking for reasons to get refunded and/or reimbursed (or re-scheduled), so that they don't lose out.

That’s really disappointing to learn. It was the inter-satellite linking part that make it really interesting (to me) and which promised to provide big latency improvements over fiber (over longer distances). I wonder if it proved too hard in practice?
The one and only time I argued with someone about PHP, the forum the guy ran got hacked the very next morning and was running a botnet of some sort. I was smug but quiet, and I never really thought about it but the timing makes me wonder if he thought I was involved.

Anyway, there’s a patch release the next day, and somewhere I find the diff. Now I can’t read PHP but I know what string concatenation looks like, especially if someone does a diff on it. I’ll be damned if the diff didn’t fix one SQL string concatenation that was less than five lines from code with the same structure. Scsry.
It's a tricky one. If I flew around the world with expensive camera gear and edited up some kind of big budget travel video I'd be a lot more upset about seeing it free than if I had made a 'origami how to' video in 1989 that was very low budget...
Because they don't have 370 million N95 masks.
Atlanta gets about 140,000 tourists _per day_ and has one of the busiest airports in the world. A couple thousand for the Trials is a drop in the bucket of risk.
Because n95 masks don’t really help unless you use them perfectly and most people wouldn’t even wear it anyway.

What the government should be doing is drastically increase testing. Test anyone whose been to any country with a current case. And anyone they’ve been in contact with. And anyone whose been in an international airport in the last two weeks.

And then pay for all those tests.
Is there evidence many religions "try" to do anything rather than simply being amalgamations of stories? I heard once some developed more as a means of control by kings but I don't have any source. The only religion I know of that I'd say really gives a good counter to the problem in question is Buddhism. And frankly I would consider anyone able to carry out these virtues to be "above" a lot of people in a certain way.

They will all fly home to their places of origin a week later.

It has, at least if you mean the hypothesis that the wave function is collapsed by consciousness. This doesn't rule out theories of panpsychism and panprotopsychism (or even rule those theories in?), but I don't find the arguments in favor of them convincing. I think it's plausible, but I'm skeptical. I'm also skeptical that quantum mechanics plays an important role in consciousness (beyond the role it plays in the rest of biology, and everything else in the universe), though I think that's more plausible.

Dyson was a brilliant person, but I disagree with his quote there. I think we may develop a deep theory of consciousness (including solving "the hard problem") within the next century which will put some of these debates to rest.
The VDSO isn’t really any third-party code. It’s very surprising for it to do a stack probe. Though obviously it’s possible, and falls on the runtime to handle (so it’s a legit bug).

But.. nearly every “runtime” makes stack assumptions. They usually just have enough slack that it doesn’t matter. E.g. musl has an 80k stack by default — is it still “incredibly broken” if the VDSO needs > 80k? No.

While the VDSO doesn’t have an explicit stack requirement, it’s definitely implicit that it will use a small, reasonable amount.
