When UW's own researchers had shown that there were likely to be at least a few hundred cases in the Seattle area and only tens had been found, the probability that the outbreak would end without reaching campus was already slim.
Not exceptionally good, now thinking of migrating to Canada. But that is because i do not have a big social circle, finding it difficult to get married in India too and just love nature and clean air a lot. It is the small things that make it difficult for me, the driving, the commotion but some people thrive in that scenario.

It is really a YMMV situation though. I know rich folks have some advantages in India (nannies, drivers, social status etc.) that they do not get easily outside. I do not think it is easy for someone who is introvert to adjust although big cities have changed a lot.

Perhaps it’s a gross oversimplification, but I imagine there will come a day when we can finally interface our brains directly with computers. When that day comes, what will prevent those in power from getting a warrant for your brain? This is the logical end of the road breaking encryption leads to. Just like the metaphor of opaque walls, this too should have an obvious answer to the layman.

If you really believe what you're saying, don't worry about timing the bottom. You're arguing that the current state of the markets is already a huge overreaction. Just buy into an index tracking one of the hard-hit sectors, and hold through the panic. If this is an overreaction, there's no way the panic's going to last many years, so you won't risk insolvency.
O_SPECIFIED seems like a strange solution to me.

Sure, I see why the kernel people wouldn't mind having people specify their own fd numbers, but doing the accounting necessary for that (to avoid conflicts) in userspace doesn't seem nice. Especially when there will be libraries that also may make use of the functionality.

Is there even any way to see what file descriptors that are open without doing a syscall?

The fact that there's a feasible market incentive for drug R&D suggests to me that that an actual competitive approach to health care would stimulate this sort of behavior on a more widespread basis.
Also possible that they know what will cause the eyes of the government to turn in their direction - anyone price gouging in a crisis must be evil, after all. And of course the first store to start doing this will get media attention, amplifying the negative impacts...

Those are some very subtle hints, would anyone reading these letters really analyze and interpret them in such detail? I do understand the German, even if it's not my first tongue, and i can tell the superlative is obviously stronger in the first version, but couldn't that difference equally be attributed to personal writing style? Compared side by side it's easy but if given just one how would you know?

From my experience a CV is usually skimmed through very quickly because you have a huge stack to process, so picking up on these hints would require significant effort and understanding of who wrote it.
> All of the coronavirus deaths have been people that were going to die anyway.

This is true of literally every cause of death. It's a meaningless tautology.
> One thing that jumps out at me is you seem to be saying what holds women back is that men don't trust them

Throwaway for obvious reasons.

As a man, I’m rather skeptical about trusting women in business. I will never have a one-on-one meeting with a woman (especially somebody under my management), and I will especially never interact with with woman I work with outside of the office. I will generally try to keep discussions with women in the office strictly about business and professional. I am incredibly cautious about mentoring a woman.

The risk of being accused of something untoward is just not worth taking. There’s little risk of my male colleagues taking some extreme level of offence at banter or any of the other normal interactions of friendship. None of my male colleagues are going to file a complaint against me just to spite me, or to further their career objectives. However this is a non-trivial risk with women. I know women who openly talk about having done this, and I know men who it has happened to. I don’t like it, but that’s simply the reality of the current political climate.
AMD's graphics DNA splits into two
It's been widely reported that there were no deaths among children 10 or younger (at least until a few days ago) despite a not insignificant number of infections among that age group, and even the CDC says that young children are low risk (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/specific-groups/ch...). This was also the case with SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. By contrast, children under 5 years old are at high risk for complications from seasonal influenza. (https://www.cdc.gov/flu/highrisk/children.htm). And there were quite a few deaths of children during the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic, both in absolute and relative terms. (https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5834a1.htm)

This isn't surprising because influenza is a completely different virus from coronavirus.

Of course the elderly and sick are far more at risk for any of these. All of these viruses kill by causing pneumonia--primary viral pneumonia in the case of SARS and MERS, secondary bacterial pneumonia in the case of seasonal influenza, and a seeming mix of primary and secondary pneumonia in the case of 2009 H1N1. People with cardiopulmonary problems are far more likely to succumb to pneumonia if only because their lungs are already compromised.

In my country (Indonesia) masks and hand sanitizers have disappeared from all brick and mortar stores (medical equipment stores, drug stores, convenience stores, everywhere you normally can buy them) because speculators are reselling them online for 20x the price.

He drank a lot of coffee.

The author is Bo Winegard.

RationalWiki at https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Bo_Winegard summarizes him thus:

> Bo Winegard is an American hereditarian psychologist[2], nationalist[3] and pseudoscientist[4] associated with the online "race realist" community.[5] He writes discredited racialist pseudoscience articles for the right-wing online magazine Quillette[6][7][8] and surrounds himself with white nationalists, but complains if he is labelled one.

The section "Fired from Marietta College" says:

> In March 2020, Winegard was fired from his job as Assistant Professor of Psychology at Marietta College. He later wrote an article for Quillette stating that "many people disagree with my views about human population variation, about conservativism, about immigration, about economics, indeed about almost everything" but complained his sacking was an attack on academic freedom.[10]

Assuming there is an external person arbitrating (which is usually the case when dealing with internal politics at least -- one or two levels up from you), it's so important in these cases to stay reasonable. Virtually every single time, the person that likes to fight will cross the line in the hopes of goading you into a fight. But it's exactly at that time that you win. You send a very reasonable email to the arbitrating person saying, "I'm really trying my best to get this working, but I'm having trouble. Could you please give me a hand." Since the arbitrating person really would rather do nothing, they will look at the situation and say, "A is completely reasonable. B is not. B, you need to change."

I remember one time where I was discussing a problem with a manager in another team. Every single email he sent, he CC'd the management 2 levels up. Every single email I sent, I sent directly to him only. My colleague was panicking. He felt that I needed to show my side of the story to upper management or else I would be in trouble.

Eventually the management 2 levels up got frustrated: "Why am I getting all of these emails? Why can't you people sort out this problem yourself?" To which I reasonably replied, "I'm very sorry that you've been bothered, and I'm not sure why this person is being so difficult. Now that you are here, would you mind giving us a hand?" Problem solved.
The reason the crucifix is the symbol of Christianity is related to what you're talking about, but the idea is that the normalization is to remind us we are not to fear torture. In particular, that we can be like Jesus and sell people out, even if under torture or the threat of torture, because we really do have free will. After all, Jesus could have cooperated with his denouncers and sold out the apostles, but instead he kept his silence and resolve and was tortured to death on the cross.

Supposedly the patron saint of the tortured is Epipodius (just looked it up), but in my faith I actually believe there is no patron saint of the tortured. If you're tortured that's a cut above every other predicament and the only saint for you is the patron saint of all patron saints, Jesus, because he was the original Christian to get tortured for his faith.
It is true of every cause of death, but I don't think it's meaningless. Some people's lives are being shortened, and in response we're making a much, much larger number of people's lives significantly worse.
I use `let` mostly and I only use `const` for special cases when changing the variable would break the program and I want to constrain future developers from doing that. For example, when I import some library references in Node.js using `require`, I will use `const` or if I need to define a magic number like `const HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT = ...`.

I don't see the point of using const everywhere though because I don't code in a pure functional style and I don't pretend to.

Often, it makes sense to re-assign a variable and I don't want to mislead future developers into thinking that it's not OK to do so if the requirements have changed.
Ultraworking.com, sign up for their activities and use goal setting and habit tracking tools. Works for me.
I disagree. When someone looks at an epidemic that just made landfall a month ago and compares those numbers on an absolute basis to a virus (seasonal flu) that's completely embedded in the fabric of the entire US, and concludes that since A<B, it's not a threat, they are indeed a complete fuckwit.
In many parts of the world, calling through traditional phone numbers has dropped to nearly zero.

As well as giving up my landline years ago, all the calls I care about go via WhatsApp/Facebook, and my carriers phone services are now relegated to outgoing calls only.

I checked my phone logs, and in the last 3 months, I have received 8 spam calls and 0 wanted calls. I've just switched off incoming calls entirely.

Phone networks doing voice are going out of fashion. Anti-robocall tech isn't going to save them.

If just a few percent of people like me switch off incoming calls, the entire phone system becomes less useful for everyone else, leading to a cascade of people doing the same.
Well said, thanks for the perspective.
You can use that single slide to dictate your response to the issue. That's fine and you have every right to.

I'll use the advice by the WHO which literally says not to panic since it hurts their response efforts:
https://www.who.int/news-room/detail/03-03-2020-shortage-of-...

Instead of panicking, I'll do what they recommend, which is what I do anyway since it works against all viruses and is really quite reasonable:
https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/331215/WHO-...

Also, the other article you posted from bedford.io seems to confirm this won't be a big deal. But even if it is, what do you suggest I do about it to improve the situation? I mean that question seriously.

Further more, I'm not saying that one slide doesn't exist. But maybe it isn't the end all, be all of authority? Maybe the other link you yourself posted also has some validity?
What will happen though, if the fd is already used by some other area of userspace? Like what if some lib you link to also happen to hardcore the use of the same fd. Sounds like unfunny problems to debug.

In the case of uring I suppose it is possible to link the calls to fail at the first failure.

Because people can respond to Slack messages immediately it enforces the expectation of quick back and forth dialogue, and anxiety on the part of those who want focus time and mute their channels and notifications. This is why it's more like IRC and less like a forum.

When I quit Slack I still feel the expectation of others at work for me to respond to messages in a timely manner and thus feel I have to check Slack periodically. This then enforces the implied importance of Slack in the workplace. Considering this, perhaps people do not love Slack but rather feel subject to it.

I wish Slack would have the option on a slack to make UI changes to make it a bit harder to post, and encourage full thoughts over quick one liners. In the meantime, we can try and reject writing quick responses ourselves.

In another Slack with a group of friends, there is no expectation to respond and therefore there is not the anxiety.
I read the two comments you linked and it does not appear that either of them are doing what you say they are.
If you regularly serve bigger files but have low traffic DigitalOcean S3 Spaces and a custom Cloudflare Workers CDN might be an interesting solution for you. Cloudflare Workers are based only on requests and priced at 5$/10M and if you cache everything heavily DO’s 5$ S3 plan should be enough for most use cases. (I’m not affiliated with either company)

An interesting question!

As a guess, there should be some slack and elasticity in the last two gears or so, which you could get out if you used enough force. Beyond that, the effective torque is reduced by 100x or 1000x already, which means moving any further gear even by the width of an atom would probably require more torque than the final gear can bear, and either the teeth or some other weak point would fail on the last gear. Of course, even what motion there is (up to failure) would be hard to observe. Moreover, putting this much torque on the end of the structure would also likely torque the entire machine end to end (like twisting a rope) and generally mess things up in uninteresting ways.

Putting all that together, I think an observer would probably say nothing is moving, right until the last gear and/or entire structure fails spectacularly.

The best way you can help is by not being contaminated and not contaminating others.

This virus is dangerous because it overwhelms hospitals with a lot of patients (death toll in Wuhan 6%, rest of China less than 1%).

In Italy:

"The national health institute said the average age of those who have died was 81, with the majority suffering from underlying health problems. An estimated 72% of all those who have died were men.

According to government data, 4.25% of individuals confirmed to have the coronavirus have died, the highest rate in the world."

It is really really important for people to understand the risk group and take that into account in their lives and interactions. For those that are young and health the risk is still low.

The panic level of the general populous does not fit the facts at this point.

Wrong side of the trade, buying puts is like buying insurance; it's a bet that the price will go down further, while OP wants to bet that an overreaction has happened. You'd have to write puts (thereby earning the premium) or buy calls to bet in the other direction.
