I had some questions:

What about Winter? The paper (see sci-hub) shows a winter decrease in electricity use and an increase in water use. Both are smaller in magnitude than the summer increases, but not broken down by city.

But does Chicago already use more electricity in Summer than Winter? If it's the other way around, this would actually improve the consistency of demand and reduce the peak. I would expect a northern city to have higher winter use than summer, due to heating, no?

Was Chicago cherry-picked? No. Indianapolis is worse. Chicago was the biggest city in a region they looked at so it's a fair one to focus on.

Is this a problem? No. The issue is more about planning it right in advance, not that needing more water and electricity is a problem. If we now know how to plan more accurately, then this is good news, not bad.

I remember checking their packaging howto every few years to maybe really/properly/truly understand it, but just the sheer uselessness of the text signaled each time that it's just not worth it. Just google whatever you want copy from stackoverflow, and be done with it, don't try to understand it. (Eg. if I wanted a virtual package that provides some package so I can fake that so it won't get pulled in as useless dependency for other packages.)

I have the most critical eye towards psychiatry, but your claim about shootings being linked to previous antidepressant use would seem very difficult to prove true.

We would almost expect to see an antidepressants<>shootings correlation:

- mentally unwell people are given drugs

- mentally unwell people shoot other people.

That isn't causation.

The article says 'laboratory confirmed patients'. Because the large majority of cases are mild (this is also why the disease spreads so effectively), it makes sense to assume there are people who went through the disease and were never tested.
There are other “sacred” books:

- SICP,

- Concepts, Techniques, and Models of Computer Programming,

- Paradigms of AI Programming:
Case Studies in Common Lisp,

- Elements of Programming.

I got them all at some point in my career in order to become a top notch engineer. I have not finished any of them yet, 10 years later. I think they are great and you can learn from them a lot, particularly I found CTMCP to be very informative.

Problem is they require dedication, and I think one gets the most from them by consuming them sip by sip meanwhile coding a lot and integrating new techniques and mental models.

Here I don't agree.

> Sure different forms of violence do vary in severity,

Also this is not the point. Emotional violence can be definitely worse than physical violence, I am not ranking them.

I am often bad at analogies, but I will try making one anyway.

When driving you are held to a concept of strict liability; if you cause an accident it is your fault; every time you sit in a vehicle you silently agree that every damage caused by your car will be (by default, but can be proven otherwise) your responsibility.

This is not the case when walking; if you push someone down the stairs because of a sneeze it is not manslaughter, it is manslaughter if you drive over a passerby because of that same sneeze.

Quite few things are considered in the context of strict liability, in general to be responsible of a damage the burden of proof is much higher.

Similarly physical and non-physical violence are held to different contexts; if I punch you then I am at fault a priori (there can be enough context to subvert this) and the reason is that I am expected to understand that punching you will cause damage (this is why accidental deaths in a fight can incur in manslaughter charges).

threats of psychological violence should be a crime, the same as other kinds of threats.
On the other hand, with psychological violence there is not bright red line that can be as clearly crossed or not. It is much harder to argue that the abuser was conscious of the damage, or that the damage was done maliciously, or that the abuser should be held responsible for it.

It is not a matter of severity, it is just that one case of violence is significantly harder to judge fairly.

PS: > if there can be violent threats, then there can be emotional violence.

When I started, TCP/IP was in the process of vanquishing other network stacks.

C or possibly Fortran or Pascal were the main languages. Although, skill with assembly was often necessary to work around buggy or non-performant compilers.

Information was shared on dialup BBSs - access to the internet was rare or expensive.

If you wanted to know something, you bought a book or got a job at a place that did that thing and learned from others.

x86 was just one of many possible hardware choices.

Companies were so desperate for people who could write software, I knew people who were hired right out of high school because they could program. They instantly made more money than their teachers.

Upon discovering UNIX and X11, a whole new world opened up. Learning that ecosystem has really paid off as I've been able to more or less ride that wave for decades.

What do you mean by less efficient? If they're both done electrically, they're the same process, just moving heat in the opposite directions. If done with gas, you can't cool anyway.

Cooling in Chicago is through a lower temperature difference than heating. So heating will use more power. That's because the average temperature is below human comfort level. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_of_Chicago#Data

Constantly. Devlopment is a process, and artifacts fall out of it. The obvious artifact is the source code, but others include documentation, revision history, tickets and infrastructure configuration. We should be taking as much care of these as we do source code.

One example I don't think I've seen mentioned in this thread is that sometimes a change touches two widely-separated parts of the code. The commit message may be your only opportunity to comment both parts at the same time - to tie them together.

Bionic 18.04 LTS. Apt 1.6.12.

~# time apt update

real 0m5.059s

real 0m4.981s

Okay, adding Focal 20.04 LTS repo. apt install -y apt, got apt 1.9.10.

real 0m7.222s

real 0m6.924s

It fetches the InRelease files, all of them seem to have an ETag header, but probably Apt doesn't feel that it can rely on those for some reason.

But using `apt -o Debug::Acquire::http=on update` we see that it depends on the "If-Modified-Since" request headers. And many of the repos just return 304.

There doesn't seem to be a config setting for increasing the number of outgoing connections either.

So even if it gets just 304 responses it still does the "Reading package lists...

> Is the Catholic Church a cult? It's well known for not dealing either rape in a proper way.

And I assume they do so for very similar reasons. The difference between a church and a cult is its size & power, if you're large enough, you become a church and then a religion. If you're small, you're a cult that believes in obviously imaginary stuff.

I don't think we should have the Pope or some Hollywood star in charge of medical treatments, and everyone should be skeptical if musicians promise them a cure for cancer as well.

I can’t understand this either. I have a curiosity about heists too, but the max I’d do is watch an occasional movie or read an article. Ask for photos? What are they gonna do, frame and hang it at home?

Even worse is the public’s interest on serial killers, especially in the US. There are so many movies, books, shows on them!! Women write letters to these guys. It’s like these guys have celebrity status. This strikes me as weird.

For anxiety: xanax (small dose) and beta-blocker half an hour before presenting. Also, knowing every sentence you're going to say by heart (it might require 5-10 repetitions of the whole presentation during preparation). With such preparation, it's hard to fail.

As you gradually get better at it, you might skip the drugs and do less preparation. The thing is, at least within a single job, the presentations revolve around a set of subjects and with time you will just master talking about these subjects. That's how managers do it - their jobs are pretty much mostly talking, so they get a ton of experience quickly and become very competent at presenting and discussing relevant subjects.

Nevermind the video, but you're right to doubt climate change being the most serious issue. Nobody even knows if it will be as bad as World War II, and that itself was not as bad as 20th century communism when measured in deaths. So maybe unknowable future wars or political changes are a more serious issue. Or maybe all the people dying from disease, especially in the 3rd world. Or peak population where the world begins to run out of useful young people? Antibiotic resistance? Declining IQs? Society and culture making people suffer emotionally all their lives? There are so many candidates.

I'm not sure why someone created a whole video that didn't even talk about the basics. No mention of CO2 levels or global average temperature. Instead the focus is on some random cherry picked statistics that only have local impact. Wildfires don't matter to the average person because they are living in urban centers far away from a forest that could burn their house down.

The thing about CO2 is that it gets worse the more you have in the atmosphere. If you argue today that fear of climate change is merely alarmism then there is nothing standing in the way of burning coal or gasoline. So if we follow that logic to its conclusion we end up burning all fossil fuels and all of that carbon will be in the atmosphere one day. Maybe today's CO2 levels are not dangerous to us but what about in 80 years? Will it still be safe if we keep burning more and more fossil fuels as the people in India and China enter the middle class?

If you want to avoid burning all fossil fuels then you will need an alternative energy source and if you want to reduce the total emissions then you will need to start as soon as possible. If you overreact and reduce your CO2 emissions too early people may not appreciate your help. If you act too late then the future generation will blame everything on you. It's impossible to find a good solution for everyone.
Suicide?
Those hospitalisations cause pressure on healthcare systems, which means that people without covid-19 but with other life threatening respiratory problems are at increased risk of death.
re: The documentation, I found the standard Emacs docs good enough to learn high-level Emacs concepts and such, but whenever I went searching for the nuts and bolts of how to configure specific bits of functionality, the documentation I stumbled upon (it's rarely easy to discover) either a) assumed a high level of proficiency and understanding of Emacs internals, often accompanied by (or consisting entirely of) large snippets of Emacs LISP b) was written in a kind of reference style that failed to give much context or help the user along in any way, or c) would be contradicted or superseded by some other piece of documentation, usually because of subtle package incompatibilities (probably exacerbated by Spacemacs in my case).

The Emacs community does not seem to have converged on a particular documentation idiom so there is a wide range of documentation quality for various configuration use cases. Most of the time I ended up finding bits and pieces of answers on Stack Overflow or other message boards, and proceeding with a lot of trial and error. That is fun sometimes, but not all the time; it was a rare experience when the documentation really nailed it for me. There does not seem to be much thought to the user experience on the whole.

This study makes a comparison of the age distribution in reported Covid-19 cases vs. the distribution of ages in the Chinese population. I think this approach can definitely provide insight however, there’s one assumption that this study uses which will definitely bias the fatality rates being estimated.

> We chose to fix to 100% the reporting rate of infected individuals that have symptoms and are aged 80 and more, and estimate the reporting rates in other age groups relatively to that of older individuals. If further data, coming from a study in the general population, shows that this assumption is violated, this would lead to an overestimation of the CFR in our study.

I find it hard to believe that 100% of cases in individuals over 80 will be reported. It seems like any estimation of fatality rate at this time is going to be guesswork without more systematic sampling of the population.

I’m not trying to minimize the danger of Covid-19. It seems like caution to prevent further spread is absolutely necessary.

When you enable IPv6, there is no NATing. All of the IP addresses are public. You can use an Egress only Internet Gateway.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/vpc-nat.htm...

But technically, your EC2 instance never has a public IP address. You can see for yourself by assigning a public IP address to an ENI attached to your instance and doing an ifconfig.

An Internet Gateway is a one to one NAT.
