Are you sure that you don't actually mean "weird strings sent to web applications" when you write "web application attacks"? Sending a weird string to web applications is not an attack in any particularly relevant sense unless there is an actual vulnerability--other than when akamai wants to sell you snake-oil against all the danger of weird strings.

Wait, what? This doesn't follow at all. And expanding LHR will naturally increase the amount of ground traffic, including diesels?

The UK's increasing immigration tightness is difficult to reconcile with airport expansion, and an economic contraction is likely to hit demand for air travel. As is all question of global warming: from building a new runway you could estimate e.g. one plane landing every 5 minutes 12 hours a day is how much additional CO2 emissions?

Facing climate change fills you with dread . . . until you act. Then you see all the reasons not to act as self-serving rationalization. When you find the joy, community, and connection of acting on your environmental values.

When you realize that stopping all this polluting activity improves your life, you want to do more. People will comment that what one person does doesn't matter and other self-serving rationalization, but they miss that it improves your life.

I talk about this in my TEDx talks http://joshuaspodek.com/my-second-tedx-talk-what-everyone-ge... and will treat it more in the one I'm giving this weekend, as well as my podcast, but the bottom line is that the more you act the more you'll stop navel gazing and the excuses not to act will melt away.

Avoiding packaged food led for me to avoiding flying, which led to a podcast, which led me to work with some of the world's most renowned and influential people (more to come!) http://joshuaspodek.com/podcast, which led to a practice of environmental leadership executive training, where I train corporate executives in the specific leadership skills relevant to the environment, which leads to cultural change (and, for the executives: promotions, higher morale, attracting talent, and so on, which happens when you meet the demand everyone else is ignoring).

A 1% death rate in people without known complications (even 0.2% which seems pervasive in every age group) is orders of magnitude higher than for instance flu. And it spreads easily and is contagious before symptoms. Sounds like something you should be aware of.

They might be 'massaging' the numbers, or maybe they aren't, but considering the importance of the issue for China and the world, and how many eyes are watching, their interest is still to report factual trends and overall situation. At this point they cannot afford to claim that everything is fine if it isn't.

What are you talking about? The symbol table has 100 symbols. A phoneme is a symbol, not a letter. Just because a symbol comprises 2 ascii letters does not make it base10. That's like saying 1 and 0 are symbols in Manchester code.

It's more severe and the ease of how it spreads is what is alarming.

That's fine if your business can survive like that.

This is the email I sent my team last night.

We should consider working from home.

You may all have seen the news by now. A patient was just diagnosed with COVID-19 at UC Davis after having no known contact with anyone travelling. Importantly, they were diagnosed after being intubated already for 7 days. It is suspected that this is the first known case of public transmission of the virus in the US. From what we know about the incubation times and progression of the illness, that means they contracted it sometime between 14-21 days ago. This is the letter UC Davis sent to their staff.

If the virus has already been in the wild in California for 3 weeks, it seems likely to me that it has or will reach the bay area, and given the limited testing capability that has been reported, we may not know until the first cases end up in the ICU, weeks after exposure.

The death rate for young healthy people is relatively low, around 0.2%. It is much higher for older people, who it kills in double digit percentages. Still, 20% of the people it infects need intensive hospital care. Many epidemiologists now suspect that it is likely to become endemic, and that 40-70% of the world's population will contract it. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/02/covid-vac...

So what can we do?

The most important thing to keep the death rate low is to reduce the burden on the hospital system so that they don't end up with more cases needing critical care than they can handle. And the most important thing for reducing the burden on hospitals is to slow the spread of the virus, so that even if it ends up infecting all of us, it doesn't infect all of us at once.

We're fortunate enough that aside from impromptu collaboration and whiteboarding, all of our concrete tasks can be done at home. Most workers will not be in this situation, and will have to come to work to keep the economy running. For those of you familiar with random graph theory, the average number of edges in a graph has an exponential effect on its diameter, and so the best thing we can do is to avoid as much contact as we can. https://www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/~novozhil/Teaching/767%20Data/ch...

The governing construct has nothing to do with race.

A government that detains initial sources of ‘rumors’ of untreatable pneumonia should be trusted about as, say, a social network company governance that deletes non-proganda-aligned informational posts about spread of that pneumonia, or an election year government that reduced infectious disease control budgets and says nothing to see here move along.

Nothing to do with race.

I'm attracted to the idea that acting makes you feel better. But how do you take part in the economy, for instance, without adding to the catastrophe? How do you socialize without emitting carbon? I feel like I'd have to join some sort of cult if I were to both take care of my material and socializing needs, and live a carbon neutral lifestyle.

And then again, would I feel satisfied with a carbon neutral lifestyle? When there's a fire burning, is it enough to tell yourself you're not adding fuel to the fire? Shouldn't you take part in throwing water?

For a long time it felt good showing virtue. Right now panic is kicking in again and I have no idea how to handle it.

> Why exactly would you distrust China, besides racism?

Because, historically, they have not been trustworthy with this sort of thing?

Not trusting the Chinese government is way different than not trusting a Chinese person.
Another aspects not so much raised is that, where people can afford it, most people at risk are vaccinated against the seasonal flu.

Take a nursing home with people in the 80 to 100 years old range, all residents and staff are vaccinated against the flu. Even if the protection is not perfect there is some sort of herd immunity at play<

Now take the same nursing home, and for some reason someone from the staff is bringing the Coronavirus in, you are likely looking at a very high death rate.

Whatever the estimation of the death rate is, this is not a flat 1%, this is highly non linear depending on the context.

I would be really interested in getting some take-home test packages that could be done for situations like these.

It would be irresponsible to go to a doctors office where elderly people could become infected.

Does anyone know if they exist ?!
The mortality rate may seem very low, but the symptoms are far more severe. When you get the flu it's rare you get pneumonia, not so much with this virus. The biggest problem is that it spreads without symptoms. That is, you can be infected & contagious for days (some Dr's suspect up to 3 weeks) and not have a clue because you seem perfectly healthy. So this has the potential to spread like wild fire. Further, 2 days ago some numbers out of China stated that up to 14% of previously infected became infected again. Lastly, a recent report also mentioned that detections in hospital were only able to detect 45% of the cases on the first try. So many are given clean bill of health and go on to infect many more.

Watch Italy and South Korea carefully, this thing is about to spread like crazy, even if mortality rates are negligible for young and healthy.

Lastly, SARs supposedly left some people with lung and brain lesions, it is unknown what the long term effects of this one will be.

However, the idea here is to be vocal about what society we want.

The goal is to say, as an individual:

- I know data collection had negative impacts on individuals and society
- I can, and we should live without collecting so much data
- Individuals and society should come before companies

And I definitely relate...
I don't know why but for some reason everyone loves to shout "NIH" complaints on HN. I don't believe in the success of MLIR but there is no reason to not attempt a fresh start. LLVM is a gigantic project that would have to be significantly rewritten to make MLIR possible. Your development team would need a lot of LLVM expertise even though it doesn't care about LLVM. The end result would be something completely different from LLVM so what benefit is there to base it on LLVM? It's not like the rust compiler will automatically update to MLIR just because MLIR is a descendant of LLVM IR.

LLVM IR is also clearly not suitable for anything other than LLVM. It failed in the browser (Webassembly won), it failed for GPUs (SPIR-V is its own thing) and now it might fail again when it is replaced by MLIR. There is clearly demand for something that is better than LLVM IR.

Oh let me see, perhaps it has something to do with China being a one-party state with a ripe history of human rights atrocities and pervasive censorship.

Just look at SARS for an example of where trusting the official information from China made for a terrible idea.
Feigl-Ding has been fearmongering since the virus hit the mainstream, including tweeting out non peer reviewed preprinted papers claiming the R0 of the disease was far higher than it is, with commentary that was sensational (“HOLY MOTHER OF GOD”) and simply wrong (claiming the R0 was 8x higher than SARS, when current estimates are that it’s similar). He’s had to walk back lots of claims and has been so irresponsible that he has been called out by fellow epidemiologists and has had an entire article written about him as an example of how misinformation spreads[0]. Take anything coming from his mouth with a huge grain of salt, even with the “Harvard” label trailing his name.
