Well, it's true that this popup was slightly less sleazy and misleading, but it wasn't that great, either.

Just for reference (since it is obviously needed), if someone really DOES want to slam readers in the face with a popup as the first thing they see, here is some non-confusing wording:

"Do you agree to be tracked using cookies by 134 advertising companies (link to full list)?"

Two large buttons: "Yes" "No".

Yes or No. Not "Configure", not "adjust my preferences", not "Leave" which doesn't actually leave, not "Settings" which takes you to a list of all the "partners" with individual switches, no dark patterns. Yes or no.

The box milk you buy in Europe can keep about a year when unopened. That stems from a combination of aseptic packaging and UHT pasteurization. I just peeked at a few containers in my house and they have expiration dates around early July.
It is always an option.

It starts with replying "I don't have Facebook and won't sign up to this thing" to everyone that explain that they are only on Facebook; even before you close your account. Just signalling that Facebook-only is not ok.

You're not so much being left out of everything as much as they are leaving people (you're far from alone) out of their events.

And that's part of the clever thing Facebook does to make you believe you have no option but theirs.

Ads don't just inform people that Scientology exists, that's widely known. They try to manipulate them into joining. The "real" problem here is that people can be manipulated like that. But until we find a way to remove that vulnerability we must stop Scientology from exploiting it.

Aha, hermeneutics.

The literal answer is probably found in the law of comparative advantage -- both Barry and Mark should do what they're best at doing. (Arguably this law is one of the handful of non-obvious insights from the science <sic> of economics.)

A lot of markets are extremely price sensitive, but, OTOH, there seems to be a growing ratio of informed consumers that are not racing to the bottom, but instead acknowledge that a) almost every action has an ethical component that can / should be factored in, and b) how you spend your money has a greater impact than how you cast your 3-5 yearly vote.

And I think your assessment is too pessimistic.

To address (1.) You and others are going to have to provide sources for why you think that China "probably has under-reported by at least a magnitude if not double that". I've seen the ill feeling and distrust towards China increase on HN and elsewhere in the last 5 years and this fits the bill.

You can explain the differences between Hubei and Italy by the differences in responses. As has been pointed out, China built two make-shift hospitals in ~ 10 days and quarantined 100s of millions in cities. Have you not seen the pictures coming out of China. Now that Italy is taking drastic steps we'll see the outcome in a few weeks and it will tell us if it is an effective strategy. If any of the reported numbers is suspect it is the total number of cases that the USA is reporting: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ It's completely out of whack with every other country. This implies the US has been under-testing, something which we have lots of evidence for. On the other hand we have no evidence China is under-reporting.

To address (2.) "Most Western countries won't impose the type of strategies that China undertook; they simply can't." Why not? Why can't they?

To address (3.) "Most of the world doesn't have good healthcare." But most of the world has soap, most of the world understands what it means to self-isolate, most of the world can implement quarantining. "If the pandemic keeps growing exponentially with a doubling period of 4 days," Looks like mitigation strategies slow the doubling period to three weeks, why pick the worst case scenario?

To address (4.) "Simple math." Yes! Times an unknown mitigation factor of ? This outbreak is scary because it's exponential (highly lethal and highly infectious), but the total fatalities is also highly susceptible to interventions exactly for the same reason.
You are correct, but it's far better to have expensive-by-default but safe operations vs the counterintuitive mess you end up with when comparing references by default.

The point is that you need to counter human nature, which is to not do work you can get away with not doing. If the worst case result of not doing the work (i.e. not creating an equals method) is slow performance, that's better than getting incorrect results. You'll have a much harder time designing a useable language if your understanding of human psychology is poor.

Besides, in 90% of cases, you won't have potentially recursive types, and so a smart compiler can optimize for this when generating a default equals method. In fact, many cases could just degenerate into a memcmp.

Naval nuclear reactors are stored deep within the internal structure of the vessel (i.e. a negligible heat signature from the nuclear reactor is not visible from the outside). The proposed micro-reactor designs will vent the exhaust heat out into the open through an open Brayton cycle (i.e. it'll be really easy to spot).

Ships can be abandoned at sea with little risk because the nuclear material is likely to be unrecoverable. This is not true for reactors on land.

Frankly, this actually surprises me. Either I always have had a distored view of the hacker culture, or some large scale manipulation is going on. Since I am not inclined to believe in conspiracy theories, I guess I was always wrong about the hacker culture and its people.

I never tried to imply that I feel like I have magical powers.

I just think that overcareful people wouldn't have needed to see a doctor in about 95% of the cases in their life. Granted, there are times when the medical system is really useful to safe your life, but in most cases people just get the reassurance they need, but would have been fine if they just stayed at home without seeing a dctor.
That is my personal opinion, and I have had this opinion since many years. i.e., it is independent of this coronavirus incident.

Talking about side effects seems a fair point
AB coordinates are a bit unintuitive, it's easier to visualize hues around a circle and have separate values for luminance and chroma, that's why people who work with color usually prefer LCH/HCL (Luminance, Chroma, Hue).

Chroma values in LCH differ between Hues, because each Hue has a different potential and max value. That's where HSLuv comes in, where chroma is a percentage value and therefore relative to the Hue, instead of an absolute one. This gives HCL similar usage ergonmics like HSL, thus the name HSLuv.
> I interpreted all of the things you listed as indications that statistics and scientific analysis have limitations and can't predict success or failure, not as indications that he would fail and die in the end.

I did so for the "heart beats". But every other point has nothing to do with statistics or scientific analysis. I really can't say definitively that he died on his way to titan, but the evidence is fairly overwhelming. It wouldn't have been hinted at so much in the movie and the movie would not have ended with that quote otherwise.

> And again, a major theme of the story is that the two men are more capable of achieving great things together than apart.

That's a bit of a reach but you are entitled to the view.

> You seem to have a thesis that the film is a tragedy and are working backwards from there.

No. I watched Gattaca as a kid and loved it and saw it as an inspirational movie. Everything you believed, I believed. Then I got older and watched the movie a few more times. My thesis changed from inspirational to tragedy. As I said, my view of the movie changed. And I love the movie more now because it is richer, deeper and more consequential than a good simplistic feel good inspirational movie.

> And remember that neither Vincent nor Eugene (Jerome) were in a good place prior to meeting each other.

They weren't in a good place at the end either.

Anyways, you are entitled to your view. I used to view it like you and I suspect it's most people's first impressions when they first watch the movie. But after repeated viewing, it's hard to watch someone burning himself to death and a man's looking into space and "going home" as inspirational. There are inspirational aspects to the film, but I don't think that's what the movie is really about. We'll just have to agree to disagree.
I'm increasingly of the opinion that it would be great to see operating systems provide filesystem APIs with blob storage semantics alongside the regular APIs, and extend this to storage devices. After all, even on the local machine, latency is a big deal and immutability potentially valuable.

This in fact leads to evolution of multi resistant germs which then leads to those germs landing on the meat products and finally on humans. If you are healthy this isn't a problem but if you get an infection by those germs, treatment options are greatly reduced.

The US has a massive resistant germ problem, and it's partly caused by laxer regulations aroud antibiotic application in industrial animal farms compared to the EU where there are strict regulations and the resistant germ problem is smaller.

So yes, if you eat that kind of meat you are directly exposed to a major health risk. People still die of sepsis today, limbs are still being amputated because of untreatable infections.
It seems like obvious decision during national emergency. The whole country is in quarantine. You can't expect household and small companies to pay interest like nothing has changed.

Nuclear is expensive because of design costs and regulations. Mass production would greatly lower prices. The fact is when I was a nuclear power plant operator the same WOG value you could buy at Home Depot for 10 dollars costs 300 dollars with all the certifications and requirements for safety need in a nuclear plant.

If we have tech a and tech b and tech a is cheaper and can be scaled up faster, while tech b has a lot of challenges and is clearly more expensive in every situation then we don't need tech b.

The only problem with that is that theoretical "tech a" doesn't exist. Every energy production technology has some drawback or trade off. Nuclear is expensive, wind and solar don't work all the time, tidal is limited to coast lines, fossil fuel burning makes the climate worse, and so on. In the real world we can't limit ourselves to one single perfect solution.
She (Caroline Kennedy-Pipe ) - and the Hamlet thing is mostly colour but it did send me down a clickhole of tracking down 'Stalin hated Hamlet'. That the "story of bloody intrigue in the court of Denmark supposedly reminded Stalin of Kremlin politics" sounded a bit off to me - after all, Stalin famously commissioned Eisenstein's Ivan the Terrible.

It seems around 1940 or so Stalin did stop a Hamlet production (based on a Pasternak translation) at the Moscow Art Theatre. Recollections vary somewhat but the most plausible explanation is that Stalin felt Hamlet (the character) was weak. Completing the circle, the Russian wikipedia page on Ivan The Terrible has a quote from a Central Committee critique of a different movie in which, as an aside, part two of Eisenstein's film is criticized as ahistorical and as portraying Ivan as too weak "like Hamlet". The second part was not screened until some years after Stalin and Eisenstein's deaths. Hamlet itself was not staged in the last 12 years of Stalin's life.
"Battlefield conditions" means they need it to run the air conditioning in forward bases in occupied countries. At the moment, this is astonishingly expensive, because it has to be done with fuel trucked in across dangerous supply lines.

The cooling system is also how you extract energy from the reactor. Anything you do to extract energy will have this effect; if it didn’t you’d have a perpetual motion machine.
But orthopedists can support hospitals elsewhere, freeing up proper resources for for stuff like pneumonia. It is not that because of corona nothing else happens at hospitals.

Also, pretty much in line emergency handling. There is a reason why national emergencies are getting declared. It is the sesantional, alarmist way this stuff is reported that is driving me mad. We should all stay calm and follow guidelines. Instead people buy toilet paper (still just finny) and masks (where gets less funny pretty fast). This kind of reporting, amplified by social media, is a huge part of the problem.

Which is a message much better way to communicate these things. Because now the official statement ment confirms Twitter. The other way round, when Twitter and social media is wrong, people don't believe official statements. Strange enough the wave around cases where officials confirmed social media to prove social media is right and thus officials, in the case they don't want to be true, wrong. Which is very, very dangerous.

Russians have, in development, an upscaled version of the reactor tech from Project 705 submarines.

Design goals include ability to just put a power/heating station reactor block on single flat rail car and ship it to and back. Lead/bismuth coolant, passive safeties, if the reactor fails it essentially entombs itself in lead preventing fissile material leak and making it easy to cleanup. And since it's a fast reactor, it burns fuel that typical light water reactors treat as waste.

Remember containerized DCs? It's that, just for nuclear power plants. With possibility to mass produce airliftable 100MW nuclear power plants.
