Outcomes are worse. While we had a pandemic of flu last year (really!) the death rate among those hospitalized with pneumonia was something like 10%. This one is 14% among some groups, and not just those sick enough to be hospitalized. Those stats are for the elderly (who also matter). Its a similar multiplier for other age groups.

Keep in mind that the market for "retro hardware" is not limited to amateur tech archæologists. It also and probably mostly includes users of industrial equipment. Their useful lifetime can span decades even if the computers controlling them are beyond obsolete long before that, and replacing them can be nearly impossible or not economically viable.

I believe the OPs point is that using HAProxy with a floating IP is a bit of anti-pattern in Kubernetes. The idiomatic Kubernetes way would be to use an ingress object. Both HAProxy and Nginx have ingress controllers for Kubernetes which use a load balancer in front of them. The article then goes on to talk using corosync and pacemaker which are cluster technologies in their own right. This is really bizarre. Running a cluster on a cluster would not be many people's idea of "optimizing for quick recovery."
Maybe because the virus was downplayed from the beginning and the doctors who discovered it, were punished and told to be quiet instead of getting support?

That's something I've often thought is a real ace in the sleeve of CSS and also SVG, that ability to basically have artistic parameters as code and change them, animate them, etc.

Obviously you can do that offline so to speak in image applications, but the iteration time is hugely longer, stuff like caching becomes a problem, and you definitely can't automate it based on runtime inputs etc. It's almost like having that image application running in the browser, rendering whatever changes you need in real time.

That's not ignorant on his part, it's just a silly analogy to get the point across; and I think you're missing the point by thinking of what happens after the network is trained; the point made is about the initial state of the network, not the outcome.

The neural network will have preconceptions on how to play no matter how, even if you wire them randomly; the difference of making them random is that you'll have no idea what those preconceptions are, not that they don't exist. The original story on which the koan is based might make it clearer.

[1] https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_koan#Uncarved_block

If you still want this to be about the final state, the point would be that, if the training process works well, it shouldn't make any difference whether the net was wired randomly or orderly.

This happened to a really talented Indian engineer on my team who was dependent on the company for her visa. Her work was stellar and she often worked 60+ hours when the rest of the team worked 40-50 regularly. Our manager was kind of a jerk who wasn't particularly fond of showing appreciation for ones work. Eventually I and several other people went to a new manager who was also Indian (I'm white, fwiw). She moved over a short time later and was promoted quickly. Obviously not everyone has this option so I would suggest you do everything you can to highlight your coworker's contributions.

Thank them for their help in standup, highlight their work in your 1-1s with your manager and tell them that you think this person deserves a raise or promotion. Tell higher ups that you think this person has been doing really well, etc. One thing that can be helpful is showing how much work that person did. In this case she compiled the numbers of how many stories, incidents and defects she closed relative to other people on her team, which showed her at almost double the average. Of course this is an imperfect metric and can be gamed, but having data is valuable. Good luck

> > The fact that millions of people are still racists nowadays doesn't mean we should accept that either.

> You do have to share a country with them, and may rely on them some day to save your skin, so it would probably be a good idea for you to treat them like equals, unless you're looking for a civil war.

See I actually think that it's a good thing to call for, say , "stamp out racism". Cause I don't think it's real healthy for a population to just accept racism because, well, you gotta share a country with them.

Would you say this if you believed there was an actual possibility that, one day the target of their racism would be you?

Just imagine that you're living in your country, born there etc, but the brewing racist population happens to not include your particular ethnic group, and it may not be right now, but there is really no reason why they would not continue being racists, well you know, they per definition don't like sharing a country with anyone.

Everywhere in the world and history where such a situation occurred, it happened with some amount of tension and suffering (ranging from economic inequality to holocaust).

I can only imagine someone saying "well they may be racist but you gotta share a country with them" if they were certain to expect to come out on top, given such tensions.

There will also be groups that come out on the bottom, badly. But apparently it doesn't matter if you treat them as equals and share a country with them?

> There are no Nazis today. There's a tiny smattering of people that go around playing dress-up, probably mostly undercover government agents or informants, but the NSDAP is a defunct political organization.

Isn't the preexisting conditions table incredibly uninformative and heavily confounded by the fact that a lot of these conditions are far more prevalent in elderly people?
Yup. Corosync + Pacemaker can and will implode in a spectacular fashion exactly when you don't want it to. And 2 node cluster will split brain sooner rather than later. I'd rather use keepalived if required, since it's a lot easier to understand and manage.
They are far from existing. Right now the only workable test for the virus is a genetic fingerprint via PCR. This takes time and needs both a lab and some very specific reagents which the CDC is presently having trouble producing.

If you develop severe symptoms, wear a mask (either sterilize it or use disposables), call the hospital and talk with them about it. If they tell you to come in, they will take the necessary precautions to make sure you don't infect anyone else.
They are so not all worth it. A couple efficient properties (yellow and orange) are worth any number of the others. Own a monopoly on yellow or orange, and you will likely win the game. I auction everything else, which depletes my competitors and raises my chances.
Yes, most of those new bigtech/startup employees are getting compensation in the local band. But they are in the very top of that band, and gradually shifting it up as US companies compete for talent, and
VC-funded local companies start competing more seriously as well.

It’s a gradual process but in my experience it’s very real.
> their interest is still to report factual trends and overall situation

Unfortunately it isn't. They are trying to put people back to work and reopen trade because of the damage it is doing to their economy, and massaging the numbers is one crucial element of making that happen.
It also makes sense that we eat more heavy, carb-wise, in the winter and lighter foods in the summer, with spring and autumn being the transitional periods. Its to sustain our body fat, or move it into the direction of the next season. A lot of body in the summer makes it hotter (undesired; already hot), not much body fat in the winter makes it colder (undesired; already cold).

And it isn't only that. Squirrels even harvest so they got food in winter. We've also learned to maintain foods, such as sushi with rice, or with salt or acid so it wouldn't go rancid. Plus, like I said, there's "winter vegetables" which are high on carbs, low on water.

Some art you need to know how hard it is to make in order to appreciate it.
Next time you are stuck with a CSS problem, you might think that if this guy can paint freaking Simpons in CSS why can't I get this simple curve to look like I want!? Then you solve the problem in SVG instead. And start to appreciate the art even more.
You can however cheat in CSS "art" by creating lots of div's with absolute positioning, where a SVG solution would be more elegant.

No, its probably the 14% death rate among the elderly and lung-compromised.
The mortality figure being shared in this thread is a baseline of 2 per mille. That's not what I'd call negligible.

And that's with proper healthcare, and functioning food/water/electric .. if 40% of is need hospitalisation and the rest daren't leave the house; how long until food supply chains are broken?

I think it helps point out that there is probably an underreporting and selection bias in the cases of coronavirus that get reported, precisely because healthy patients with coronavirus probably won't go to the hospital, and if they do they just treat for a pneumonia without doing coronavirus testing (what's the indication to make the cost worthwhile?).

The postalveolar approximant (r in "red" in General American) is so weird linguistically.

Also it's always amused me how dog noises are onomonopoeitized in GA English as "bark" or "woof", when dogs lack lips to make a labial plosive, and their tongues can't really form proper postalveolar approximants or velar stops. I think it has to do with how we hear the third formant.

I guess I'd transcribe it like...

/ɚa◌˞'/

It's almost like "rorch" but more glottal less velar.

Your coworker can and should ask for a raise. Your boss may say no, but no one gets fired for asking for a raise.

Either way, you should limit your helpfulness here. I understand how you feel, but your coworker's pay and your boss's desire to pay him are not your responsibility.

You will work with many underpaid and overpaid people in your career. Underpaid people will teach your kids and pick up your garbage.

If you want to help your coworker, put the energy into systemic change (donations, political activity, voting) rather than trying to take the steering wheel of his career. It may be less welcome than you assume (or he lets on).

Yup, and a term of services isn't above or equal to existing laws. If a law contradict a line in the TOS then you have the option to ignore it, and fight back against the company of they take action that is against that law.
In particular, since the number of binary strings of length n exceeds the number of shorter strings, there must be a string of length n that's not described by a shorter program, i.e. that's incompressible.

More generally, the fraction of strings of length n that can be compressed by k or more bits is less than 2^{-k}.

>you need to understand every possible input.

This is often not possible.

When I talk to developers about this, I point use database storage as an example. There may be computations behind the scenes that mangle the nicely input-sanitized database contents. Concatenation with other values, string work, data from some other system. Thus, data that was sanitized upon input is now questionable for output.

This is well-intentioned, but leads to a false sense of security, and sometimes mangles perfectly good input.

And in some applications, for example, ones that must process data in a forensic environment, any change to the input is prohibited.

Thus, the only useful way to think about this is that the contents of the database is toxic and must be sanitized on output. Simply working with the input gives the programmer no useful idea about what is in the database when it comes time to output it.

Frameworks these days help significantly with providing tools to properly parameterize SQL. However, it is unlikely that they handle all the cases. Consider an example where user input from a web page is used to build a column name or table name. This isn't covered by frameworks. That needs to be carefully processed in the code.

>Ultimately, "Filter outputs not inputs" is incomplete advice that kinda sorta works well for the most part in web apps. The correct advice is, again, "carefully specify the semantics of your sources and sinks".

It is in fact the primary advice that should be followed.

So sanitization of input is a good idea, but if output is not properly encoded, somebody else is likely to profit.

This is FUD.

They are not in a vacuum. Business and travel will resume only if the situation is demonstrably resolved, or close to.

They cannot afford to fake it and re-open factories and lift quarantines just for mass contamination to occur, which would be very public and screw them internationally for good.

Edit: Everyone, from all impacted countries say that they are still open for business because they don't want everything to stop and people to be spooked. The country is not all under quarantine. That has nothing to do with faking numbers.

Not an expert on the subjet, but what I saw is this: old houses and churches (400+ years) with big stone walls tend to be rather cool in summer (my parents house ground floor always stay under 25°C when properly used, even with temperatures reaching 40°C outside) and have little temperature fluctuation overall (a piano, which is very sensitive to that and need yearly tuning in most places, can stay tuned for 10 years without intervention). I suspect the biggest factor is insulation due to having having a lot of mass that doesn't easily change temperature, but again I'm not an expert.

Incidentally, you cannot have it all: this architecture is not cheap, not fast, and isn't designed to withstand earthquakes or floods. But you'll never need air conditionning.

Servers never accessed? Then how was the client list stolen? Was a paper copy stolen from a filing cabinet? I find this posture somewhat arrogant and dismissive. Also, the article is light on technical details- does anyone have info on what flaw was exploited and patched?
