I would argue that for the US, the textually unqualified 2nd amendment right to bear arms is clearly a more exclusive right than a citizens ‘right to privacy’ in person, possession, or communication than what is granted by the 4th amendment.

The 4th amendment was written with the express intent that it only protects you when the government (embodies as the judicial branch) feels it should. Also, given the past 200+ years of jurisprudence on the 2nd and 4th amendments, I’d say that the 2nd amendment is absolutely a stronger guarantee than the 4th. There may be some right to privacy read into the text of the Bill of Rights, but that right is not universal and not inalienable by the government.

> In the modern financial system, risk-free debt is basically as good as cash on a balance sheet. If you need to turn it into cash, you just dip into the repo (“repurchase agreement”) market.

The global repo market is valued at $12T USD, and only 75% of it is backed by "pristine collateral", such as government bonds. That means that $3T of it is in equities or derivatives. The fed's balance sheet is only $4T USD in comparison. Additionally, $.5T is in private capital groups, which are entirely opaque, have poor lending standards, and there's no visibility into counterparties or volume.

Keep in mind, India's Yes bank that was just nationalized failed due to liquidity problems. There is a theory that global liquidity is being challenged, and central banks may not have the appetite to provide a backstop at the volume required.
Your Lancet link was testing against bacteria.

For viruses, alcohol rubs are considered better than soap+water because it's harder to screw up alcohol rubs and viruses are easily inactivated.

The big problem with alcohol rubs is that they're useless against spores, so you can still end up with a C. Difficile problem, but that's usually more of a hospital issue.

I didn't/don't think that's what the phrase means.

If the expected value is $666,666 then wouldn't be the risk premium be the discount you want for the risk of getting zero, compared to an investment that definitely returns $666,666?

I also feel like I read recently about a study showing that investors are empirically (at least to some extent and at least these days) willing to pay more for more "risk", kind of like lottery players.

I'm a little foggy about why, with the low cost of diversification, investors would demand a risk premium greater than zero, at least.
>Because the open source community is slowly coming to the uncomfortable realization that many eyes != security

The community has been aware of this for a very long time. Many eyes still provides better security than few eyes, which is why singling out free software as your concern seems misplaced.

>f I had to bet, then I'd bet both of those are modern day Crypto AG variants.

Though it's possible Signal is compromised, it's basically known that the proprietary offshoot WhatsApp is compromised. Free software is still your best bet, likely even better than doing it yourself for 99.9% of the world
You’re correct here. The long, low intensity type work lends itself to ketosis well, but power and strength not quite as much. This is because of the metabolic availability of energy from the two pathways.

To throw my own anecdotes in, I’ve done more than a few 24-48 hour efforts (backpacking, mountaineering, cycling, climbing) with a range of dietary strategies and so far I’ve felt the best with bacon, hard boiled eggs (with some salt and pepper), and water.
Probably a good idea considering the nature of the crime.

And: Reiser 4 didn't get merged into the Linux source, did it?
Oh, ok yes, I see.

Again it troubles me that even the language of Git is sometimes ambiguous.

I feel that there should not be a 'golden rule' of something that should never be done - it's a flaw in the product. It simply should not be possible, or at least not with someone without super-admin rights.

I feel Git is very much an administrative level tool, and that there should be something else for devs; something that is fairly obvious, consistent, encourages/forces the org. the policy and makes it so that devs don't have to think to much and really hard to screw up. Admins can give special privileges to the 'true experts' on an as-needed basis.
Thanks for your reference. I looked up Rhinovirus. According to wikipedia, it seems that:

> 99 serotypes of human rhinoviruses affecting humans have been sequenced.

Of which, one seems to be the most contagious:

> The human Rhinovirus Strain 1A (which was at the time held responsible for at least 30 percent of the common cold infections)

Since the 'cold' is something that about 10% of the population get, and since one strain of Rhinovirus once managed to account for 30% of common cold infections, it would stand to reason that the most infectious Rhinovirus managed to infect 3% of the population in a year.

Please help me understand how that allows you to 'deduct' that COVID-19 will have a near 100% infection rate?
I think I was able to instinctively touch the background when it popped up for me (I tend to do these things without thought now). Seemed to work on iOS.

> If the expected value is $666,666 then wouldn't be the risk premium be the discount you want for the risk of getting zero, compared to an investment that definitely returns $666,666?

Risk premium is something that connects future profits to the present, to create an expected value. It is in fact, typically, a yearly rate expressed in percent. Simple example: say the 10 year bond is 2%, you slap 5% risk premium on top of that and you get 7%, with which you discount future profits to the present expected value. Why 5%? Well that's why I'm calling it "intangible". It's risk, it's hard to say what risk is when often you could not have possibly anticipated all the problems. But you know that they're there. All of the recorded history of humanity confirms that trouble is always there.

> I'm a little foggy about why, with the low cost of diversification, investors would demand a risk premium greater than zero, at least.

Well that's up for everyone to decide [what risk premium do they want]. I'd personally stay on the side that assumes that failure, any level, size and scope of failure, is always possible.

Broad diversification was always possible and executed at the institutional scale. It really doesn't change all that much. All that changed is that the "small guy" can have it. In particular it does not mean that risk was somehow banished from the world by Jack Bogle's work.

I like how you put that “the crazy ideas you’ve had all along feel actionable”. This is the only way I can write anything- with caffeine all the crazy ideas in my head seem worth expressing.
>Insecure until proven secure" is probably a good motto.

So just always insecure, as no amount of testing can guarantee there isn't some heartbleed like bug in there still.
How reliable are these double blind studies? How do they know they are guaranteeing that only caffeine is impacting their abilities at that moment? There could be a ton of other factors that could be playing a part here. Can we be sure that x number of users is enough to remove those extraneous factors? These kind of studies feel very odd.
The judgement (Urteil vom 26.11.1963 VI ZR 221/62) which dates back to 1963 says that the employer needs to show general "good will" in issuing the work certificate.

It doesn't say that you are always entitled to get the best one though because another judgement says that the certificate needs to be the truth.

There are thousands of lawsuits every year because of that. In the end the employer needs to bring up solid proof for wrongdoing to justify a bad certificate. So usually, if you get an job applicant with a bad work certificate, you can be sure that he REALLY messed up on his last job. Unusually it would probably be better for the applicant to say he/she has been unemployed than show up with a bad certificate.
I guess everyone truly is a bag of preferences navigated by pure reason and an unwavering drive to maximize their utility functions after all.
For what it’s worth I’ve had blood tests recently after 3 weeks zero carb (pure carnivore)

Everything in the norm, high cholesterol but low triglycerides, glucose (HbA1c) bang on in the middle of the normal scale. Blood pressure going down, heart rate quite high that resolved itself after a few days (due to fat adaptation)

Eating probably 10g of salt per day, lower now that my body went past the adaptation phase. (My BP medication has a diuretic in it, so I need more than other people I guess)

No more stuffy nose, not feeling hungry at all, eating below or at my TDEE.

Surprisingly Vit D3 in the norm, and I don’t get any sun at all.

No palpitations I had when doing keto, no bloating, perfect bowel movements every 2 or 3 days.

YMMV.
Kinda interesting that they were bragging about capacity retention and accelerated charging then 85/90 packs started their combustion processes worldwide.
I’ve done it. I got extremely ripped and looked great, but actual performance suffered and I started feeling pretty terrible. I like how carbs solve those problems for me. However, if I’m doing 6+ hour efforts, I just eat fats and around hour 7 or 8 I’m still burning hot when I used to burn out when I was feeding with carbs.

How developers helped save Taiwan from the coronavirus
True. It would be interesting to analyze what others aspects are correlated.
Increasing prices on preventative medicine/devices is a great way to make sure fewer people use them and disease transmission/severity increases.
By letting prices rise, it may be worthwhile for factories that manufacture a similar product, or have manufactured masks in the past to retool back to mask production.

While it may be too late for this immediate epidemic, it also incentivizes middlemen to warehouse goods like masks which will help for the next epidemic.
Names Don't Constitute Knowledge
To be clear, at this time we only the “CFR” - known case fatality rate. Likewise, we only know the known case hospitalization rate.

What we do not know, and can only estimate, is the “IFR” or the overall infection fatality rate, and the overall infection hospitalization rate.

Imagine the flu was a brand new virus which we didn’t have any test for. In 3 months we would see 100,000 hospitalizations and 10,000 deaths from this new virus.

Only after testing became inexpensive and widespread would we come to realize that actually 32 million people were infected with this virus, but only 200,000 per year went to the hospital, about 20,000 of which end up dying.

My point is, we do not know the infection hospitalization rate, nor the infection fatality rate of COVID-19, but its upper bound is the CFR and it’s reasonable to suspect the actual value is at least an order of magnitude lower than the current CFR data might indicate.

It’s not reasonable to state anything definitively about the overall hospitalization rate of COVID at this time without the qualifier that it’s based on only known cases and therefore overstated by some unknown amount.

"Mental Models" is a wonderful rebranding of plain old wisdom and experience.

" The next helpful model is relativity, adapted from the laws of physics. This model is about remembering that everyone’s perspective is different from yours. "

The only mental model at play here is the idea that your mind benefits from mental models and that we need an easily-referenced ontology of models brought to us in blog posts.
> And that's a pretty grim outcome since it would be 10x worse than any virus we know. This basic back of the envelop math makes me think the figure of 147,000,000 dead (the logical implication to the Atlantic's estimates) is pure quackery.

You seem to be unfamiliar with the Spanish Flu, which killed almost 200k Americans in October 1918 alone, and travel has gotten much easier since then. SARS was contained, and COVID-19 looks like it won't be, so it is grossly misleading to pretend the total deaths will be in the same ballpark.
I wish I could experiment with it like you, but the risk that it'll send me into an anxiety episode that feels like a heart attack/food poisoning combo and which begins in the middle of the night in a sweat-soaked bed and leads with waking up in a colder, harder bed (the floor) because you passed out when you got out of bed because the blood pressure drop to your brain was too intense because your heart was beating too fast to pump blood quickly enough to adjust and continues with at least one day of zombified, ambient nausea and terror is just too high for it to possibly be worth it.

I'm surprised Oskar van Deventer (YT: OskarPuzzle, https://oskarvandeventer.nl/ ) hasn't done more than 10^9:1 reduction.

https://youtu.be/b_pbOCIg_nI

I think this calls for 10^10^2 reduction using a series of cycloidal drives (34x 1000:1 should do it just fine)
The two cases aren't really comparable. In the case of epipen, the price is high because manufacturer has a monopoly, and is using that monopoly to hike prices. With the masks, the prices are high purely because demand far outstrips supply. Those ebay sellers hardly have a monopoly, so I expect them to be priced close to the market clearing price, otherwise they'd be either be selling out (if below) or have zero sales (if above). In a perfect world, any profits would be redistributed back to society, but that's more of a taxation problem than a market one.
Taiwan Used Big Data, Transparency To Slow Down Coronavirus
How did you manage to ignore the entire part of my post about what slows the rate of Rhinovirus infections and why that doesn't apply to SARS-CoV-2? It is half of the entire sentence that talks about Rhinovirus.
Depends on the application. A lot of stuff, especially in CRUD world, doesn't need any. A lot of stuff really leans hard on it.

The least terrible one sentence rule of thumb is that the more SIMD could help make your code faster, the better at math you should be. It's a really weird rule, but for some reason it works.

Specifically regarding the generalized good at math, therefore good at problem solving, don't think too much into it. There's a lot of correlation/causation problems in there. A BS in mathematics will not make you a better programmer than a BS in computer science will. If you're going to do four years in college anyway, sure, pick up a few extra math classes. (especially linear algebra) If you're going the self taught route, (I couldn't make the transition without the piece of paper, ymmv) watch the mit ocw (or from whatever other college) series for the first semester of linear algebra, discrete mathematics, and calculus. You don't need the second semester.

I do GIS, which is a lot of spatial modeling. Linear algebra is an everyday thing for a lot of us. Many others don't need any, because they deal with networking, databases, static UI, etc. Don't think you'll be locked out of a certain field just because you don't know the required math, but also know that knowing the right math will grease the wheels.
This may or may not be good economics, but it's terrible health policy. If the goal was stopping the spread of COVID19 and masks were an effective preventative measure you would want them to be as cheap as possible to encourage use. This is a scenario where the magic hand of the market will get people killed.

To second this, on a closed loop track at constant 75mph, Car and Driver found that the Taycan Turbo S (EPA 192mi) and Model S Performance (EPA 326-346 mi) had similar range in real-world testing. You can probably argue with the methodology but achieving Tesla's 70% EPA range advantage would not have been realistic in that test.
Perhaps they’re behaving entirely rationally. Infectious diseases do not kill that many people compared to cancer in America.

We may have a bad “flu” year this year, with a spike of elderly deaths, but we have a bad cancer year every year.
You're right, took me a bit to catch up.
Of those recovered, what condition are their lungs in? Currently the data isn't capturing this but it's been suggested that covid-19 has a permanent effect on the condition of many who are "recovered."
For sure. US sanctions against various countries have arguably killed hundreds of thousands, over the past few decades. Maybe even millions.

It's just not a great article. Farnam Street is popping up on HN all the time these days. They had one article a while back which I liked enough to add their RSS feed to my reader (can't remember which one), but to be frank, I think everything I've read from that site since then has disappointed, and I've since removed them.

Seriously, there is no value to internalizing a rule like "think the same way that the theory of general relativity would." It doesn't even make sense. This is low grade pop psych.

When passions are running high, the first thing you should do before making decisions is cool down. You don't need a novel mental model you just need to take a break and wait for everyone's emotions (and the accompanying stress hormones, which suppress rational thinking) to subside. That's a better mental model than anything in this article.

This is because of the vastly different amounts of work involved on either end.

Knowing you browsed a product is as simple as firing a tracking image on the product page from the adtech platform. Knowing you actually bought it means having a connection from the ecommerce system back to your email then back to the id that used used in the adtech and then setup as an exclusion filter in all of the campaigns.

It's also usually not worth it since conversions are low and ads are cheap so better to keep advertising and get net new sales then worry about the people who already bought seeing the same ad.
