High heels. Also in this specific case we are talking about metal spiked ice shoes.
It's pretty much fire-and-forget. I know a bunch of non-technical people who are running Pleroma instances: you don't have to worry about it that much.
I've mostly ran into issues where the host is not able to work out a significant issue (unresponsive for days, does not provide access to property, property smells so badly of smoke you cannot breathe adequately - as a former smoker this is a high threshold). This is not technically a cancellation but an "ended stay" and you are not able to leave a review once you have entered the property in my experience. That said, I'm sure it's improved (hopefully in the year+ I haven't touched it)

In general, it's been extremely difficult to read between the lines on reviews since they're all five stars, and sometimes you end up reading things unintentionally.
To be clear, I didn't downvote - my first sentence was only pointing out the potential thought process of someone who might have. My opinion is that some level of payout is a good idea, but it should be balanced with one's own prepardness.
I like your added protections. Allowing people to filter their reported data might be enough to convince people to use it even without additional security.

Don't use sha256 for the hash, we need a slow hash like bcrypt or scrypt. Since entries only need to be updated when moving between time boxes or space boxes we can in fact configure this to be quite slow.
I can find 2.25 clearly accountable hours without losing any academic content:

- Lunch and recess (45-60 minutes).

- Passing periods (27-28 minutes).

- Lifestyle activities: art, health, gym, music, etc. (45 minutes).

Now some fluffier ones:

- Suppose, like a typical Coursera user, I can understand the content at 1.2x classroom speed. There's 60 minutes.

- The door-to-door transition period is four minutes. But settling in, packing up, pleasantries, and administrivia probably put the lecture-content-to-lecture-content time at closer to 10 minutes. So there's another 42 minutes.

There. I just found 4 hours with losing a drop of college-relevant material.

And somewhere off the spectrum is the United States where individual property owners own the mineral rights. Not much worry of one entity selling a whole country full of oil for peanuts in that case.
I doubt anyone in their right mind views a KSA backed bond anywhere near as safe as the US.

The only meaningful revenues KSA has is from Aramco, and Aramco only has 40 years of oil reserves left at current production levels. Their 30 year bonds should have very high yields.
To be honest as time goes on the Smart piece of your device starts to get slower and slower.

Keep in mind that low oil prices also mean that EVs become less of a value proposition. Once petrol prices reflect oil prices, it becomes even harder to make a rational economic argument towards EVs.

They get that data the same way they always do, from people seeking medical attention. People who are symptomatic for anything ( flu, cold, etc) should always isolate themselves.

1- UAE seems to be doing well. Dubai has diversified beyond oil mainly as a finance (money laundering?) and transportation hub.

2- Kuwait has KIA which seems similar to the Norway model: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuwait_Investment_Authority and it has considerable market cap.

3- Qatar invested heavily on local infrastructure. They have world class universities, a new extensive metro system, an excellent airport, and well maintained roads.

Sure there are some failed examples: Saudi Arabia could have been much better especially that they make lots of money from religious tourism. Libya could have been another Qatar. Iraq could have been at least stable. So...
The Pinochet "economic miracle" is largely debunked at this point. Naomi Klein has covered this topic extensively in her book, The Shock Doctrine. Here's a relevant passage from her book:

“The only thing that protected Chile from complete economic collapse in the early eighties was that Pinochet had never privatized Codelco, the state copper mine company nationalized by Allende. That one company generated 85 percent of Chile’s export revenues, which meant that when the financial bubble burst, the state still had a steady source of fundsâ€¦. By 1988, when the economy had stabilized and was growing rapidly, 45 percent of the population had fallen below the poverty line. The richest 10 percent of Chileans, however, had seen their incomes increase by 83 percent. Even in 2007, Chile remained one of the most unequal societies in the world—out of 123 countries in which the United Nations tracks inequality, Chile ranked 116th, making it the eighth most unequal country on the list.”

You can read her go deeper into this subject in her 2008 blog post here: https://naomiklein.org/response-attacks/

The economy under Pinochet was actually quite mediocre:

"By the end of the dictatorship, Chile's average real per capita GDP had grown by only 1.6% per year, a result very close to economic stagnation; 18% of the population was unemployed and 45% below the poverty line. In 1990, Chile’s average GDP per capita, calculated on the basis of purchasing power parity, was only US $4,590, lower than Brazil’s, which at that time, after the “lost decade” of the 1980s, was $6,680. To define this as a "success" is, to say the least, intellectual impudence, if not contemptuous ideological propaganda."

Tens of thousands would be a great outcome actually. Tens of thousands of infections would mean only single to low double digit thousands of deaths - lower than the flu. 45 million people a year in the US suffer from the flu, and anywhere from 30 to 60 thousand die of complications. 30K dead, therefore, would be "business as usual", as strange as that sounds. Anything lower than that would be "better than usual".
The basics are easier yes, but the projects have become more complex. So yes, we can easily round corners instead of silly image slices, but like anything, making things easier just bumps up the expectations.
In this context, "preparedness" seems to mean "liquid savings," since we're talking about being forced to not work for a period of days to weeks. Are you saying DI should be means tested, and that people should have to exhaust their savings that they worked for before they're eligible for assistance?

Interesting. How are you deploying the server side environment?
Yeah that's not the issue. It's when an entire industry is set up this way and the people with the real money want their highly pair employees to be competitive and addicted to their high pay.

So what you are saying instead is find a better industry to be in and better people to work for.

Ultimately though distribution of wealth as incredibly unequal as it is limits that choice substantially.
Consider that instead of paying a big metro salary, your employer will do what defense contractors do... pay 120% of the median salary in Nowhereville.
I just got my tax information for the year. My insurance is pretty good. I pay around $100 a month for family coverage, my company pays $21000 a year to subsidize it.

But, I still think it’s insane. We’ve made all sorts of decisions because of employee provided health insurance.

My now-wife met at work. We knew that our company was on its last legs, she took a job right before she was laid off making less money just to make sure that she had insurance for her and her sons (we weren’t married at the time).

I was laid off when the company was sold but I got a contract with one of our clients. I first looked for insurance on the open market. No one would sell me insurance because of a pre-existing condition. My “condition” wasn’t anything like cancer and I was part time fitness instructor, and ran half marathons within the last year.

Sure I could get CORBA, which I did, but less than four months later the acquiring company cancelled their insurance plan and outsourced all development to India.

I proposed to my wife and we were planning to get married in six months. She thought it was crazy I was helping to support her (she took a lower paying job) and paying insurance. She said let’s go to the courthouse and get married so I can get on her insurance.

She now works part time for the school system mostly so we can have insurance while I jump back and forth between salaried jobs and contract jobs.
Keep in mind oil is not oil. The US produces some fairly top quality crude by global standards. This is both good and bad.

You don't want to be using WTI crude to produce bunker fuel - that's like using truffles to season canned beans - you could do it, but it doesn't make rational sense to do so. Better to export your WTI for uses that need such a quality crude (and pay accordingly), then import some low quality OPEC basket crude to produce bunker fuel.

I think Expert C Programming is a great book (really, as much a classic as the K&R), but I'm not sure I'd put it on the OP's list. At least not right now.

It says something about C (I'm not sure what) that it's possible to learn quite a bit about C from a book that was written in 1994. But it was written before C99, and it shows.

If you're a C hacker and you haven't read it, definitely do. It's great.

Remote vs. in-office does benefit certain personality types over others.

I believe versions of this parable you have happen a lot (in both versions), but the ultimate consequences are not exactly obvious. If you play it out the remote scenario over time, then what are the perceptions? Paper trails are dominated by virtual-loudmouth Person A. If anything, A might come out looking like the star of the team. Maybe Person B becomes disengaged and self-select out. Remote teams will start to look like a cult of Person A.

Generationally, forum culture is big. As a millennial, I was in lots of confrontational online discussions as a youth, and enough other people were watching for there to be an audience. The art of flaming involves more emotional intelligence than people give it credit for, it can be similar to traditional debate. Those skills get redirected into the professional world. This is often good for the individual, but bad for the whole. It's pretty to take a healthy online community and convert it into something that only full-time rule junkies can survive in.

If you're ever managing an online community, the most important feedback is what people won't share because of their filter. There are ways to get this information in-person that you lose going full remote.

I just listened to a BBC interview with a passenger on the quarantined Diamond Princess. She commented that within a month, covid will probably have spread to every city and household in the US. As a gornisht, I generally concur. As /usr/detaro mentioned, there do seem to be significant complications with covid. I just read a disturbing 'testimony' from a doctor at the front line in Italy[0] which would appear to advise against such a plan, and also notes the severity of the virus, which is not at all normal, it seems.

I think there will be no easy answers or solutions.

You might also consider the Chinese doctor largely responsible for initiating action and informing the public. He died, helping others. Repeat exposure might not have helped.
Google recommends that developers use AMP instead.
Datasets for Natural Language Processing
AMP and Chrome are Google's HTML "embrace, extend, extinguish". In twenty years the web will be nothing but silos and ad funnels.

Google is doing what Bill Gates wished Ballmer would have done. Thankfully the Justice Department stepped in to save the fledgling web. Will they be willing to do so to save it this time around?

Google needs to be forced to abandon Chrome and AMP.
If you can time it perfectly (e.g. directionality is constant), then UWT or GUSH are 3X crude ETFs. The 3X means you are exposed to decay so the return won't be as good if it goes down then up.

This is also assuming either ETF exists come Monday. The rapid drop (>30%) could mean the products are ended.

In that case it may be worth getting long-term XOM (or other petroproducer) calls.

The school shuffle starts at 4. For younger children, they often have a stay at home caregiver (stay at home spouse, family member, or in home nanny). It can be challenging to get work done with a two year old screaming around the house with no concept of boundaries.

For older children, if you aren't the designated pick up parent for the day, it can still be quite distracting with children coming and going and doing their thing without a lot of regard for others (as children are still developing that capacity).

Office can be a quiet refuge where you get to be around adults instead.
No they don't. Google "split estate". <googles> Hmm even better there is now a movie with that title. I know about this because the land my home sits on can be drilled for oil and gas because long ago someone (the railroad company who were given the land by the federal government, probably) sold the mineral rights. Also the federal government owns vast tracts of mineral rights.
Heads up: in English, "tablature" is an uncountable noun, it doesn't need to be pluralized.

> Just a month ago that subreddit was nothing but negative news about China, because China was doing a terrible job. Now China is evidently doing a good job and other countries are screwing up, so they're getting called out.

That explains the first two points, but not the last. It is also consistent with a "moderator takeover" that the original commenter claimed. As it stands, the subreddit hasn't gone full blown /r/sino so it's hard to definitively tell.

> Please don't turn every observation into the world into a conspiracy.

Actually I never claimed there was any sort of conspiracy, just a bias. /r/politics has a liberal (and probably bernie) bias, but I, nor most people would call it a conspiracy.

> It's possible for people to lack your nationalist fervor without being paid shills.

Sure. OTOH you don't seem to think it's possible for me to bring up this topic without being nationalist.
Or increase their market share. Saudi Arabia is among the countries who can produce oil cheaper. Under $20 the number of countries that can pump profitably is very small.
Extreme statements aren't useful.

GMail is a poorly built app, that's all. There are plenty of great examples. Both Outlook and Fastmail have fast and feature-rich email clients. Gmail was good back in the day and got carried away by project managers and feature creep.

Pet ownership is an overlooked driver of carbon emissions
I’m surprised to see this post getting so much traction here. To me it reads as a bunch of wild speculation, written as if it were factual, with no real supporting evidence given.

> Home ownership was a bubble that popped in 08. Health insurance is a bubble that may pop when AMZN gets in the market.

Both of these assertions seem ridiculous to me. Home ownership was not ‘a bubble’, selling high interest loans to under-qualified buyers and then creating and trading a bunch of securities around them was the bubble. And the idea that amazon entering the health insurance market will somehow transform the entire paradigm of American healthcare is absurd.
The plague is endemic in fleas on rodents and small wild animals
in the US Southwest. Most people who contract it are
first treated with antibiotics after presenting with
the typical symptoms, and only a few days later
do the test results confirm the presumed diagnosis.

The riskiest situation is exposure to plague and
then quickly traveling
to some other location where plague is rarely seen,
and doctors at the destination do not know to look
at the symptoms as possibly plague,
and to tentatively treat for plague
before testing confirms the diagnosis. Medical groups
in New Mexico have several time done public awareness
programs using the tag line: “Land of the flea, home of the plague.”

They are not talking about how they schedule and manage the family life. They are talking about desperately needing some time away from the family.

Managing Thoughts
Not living in the USA, I see this from another angle.

If I am healthy enough (imho) to go to work because a sneeze and a runny nose never killed anyone (until now) is something that people were/are/will do. If someone prohibits me to go to work and it is THEIR choice, then it would be only fair to support me so I can continue living. Not buying Prada shoes, but the "Essentials" (as defined by Dave Ramsey and/or the Minimalists). From my travels in the USA I remember that Silicon Valley and SF are crazy expensive (and people, I live in London).

So back to the point. You want me to keep away? Can I WFH? Then thank you I can continue WFH to support my family. If not, don't destroy me and my family financially, help me help the society. I know that USA has a small allergy on social provisions but this is literally "do or die".
Israel has a particularly close relationship with the United States via a decades long lobbying effort. Israeli media often debates whether or not the nickname "the 51st state" is accurate or not, and whether they are too dependent on the US. Israel has a program to fly Americans to Israel for free for two weeks as part of a cultural exchange program to build ties. They're heavily invested in this.

The UK and Australia are close allies too, but Israel is quite small (geographically the size of New Jersey) and only about 8 million - the total population of California's bay area, and surrounded by countries that often times are at best neutral. Israel has a strong incentive to win and maintain US friendship.

Yes, US citizens, permanent residents, and their immediate family members can return from China, with some conditions: "Americans returning from China will be allowed into the country, but will face screening at select ports of entry and required to undertake 14 days of self-screening to ensure they don’t pose a health risk. Those returning from Hubei province, the center of the outbreak, will be subject to up to 14 days of mandatory quarantine."
Rather I believe they are referring to the ability to prepare, i.e. we don't measure people's savings but look at their income level (and perhaps number of dependents) and decide what we think their emergency fund should be.

Which seems far more reasonable to me than actually measuring savings. We don't want to punish people for creating emergency funds.
Corruption is common in every country, some countries are just better at propaganda.

In the USA maybe we can bring back the pandemic response command chain in the executive branch of the federal government who were all summarily fired in 2018 because the president and his national security advisor didn’t want to keep “people who sit around doing nothing most of the time” (paraphrased) on payroll.

Jobs offer many benefits, of which healthcare is only one. Healthcare being used doesn't mean everything else is.

Things like food, equipment, travel perks, gym memberships, etc. could instead be spent on bigger paychecks, especially if you're already moving towards remote work.
I think the shift to WFH will also crash tech industry salaries, probably never to recover to present heights. Over the long term, there's every reason to suspect that a labor glut combined with better ML-driven program creation will change "manual" programming --- the direct writing of program logic in code --- to a low-pay, low-status profession.
Note: WFH = "working from home". Not all of us speak in undefined acronyms :-).
