I don’t understand your reasoning. It seems like either astonishing naivety or arguing in bad faith...

Do you really believe that a huge organisation that has plenty of people that are fine with illegally assassinating people, kidnapping people and torturing them, lying to Congress, etc. would have any moral issue with planting some images on a suspect’s hard drive?

These are very much “ends justify the means” kinds of people.

There is plenty of precedent too. One of the largest child abuse web sites on the dark web was confiscated by Australian police and then they continued to run it for another year [1]. But not only that, they did indeed post additional content (that they had confiscated elsewhere I assume) to keep the site’s users believing it was running as normal!

I guarantee agencies like the CIA would have no qualms doing the same thing, or using some of those images to “help” get somebody they felt was guilty but didn’t have evidence to convict.

That’s not to say that it’s necessarily happening in this case, but I would be surprised if they hadn’t don’t it multiple times before.

What sort of effect would this have on loss prevention? To stop theft you need to have staff. Cops will not arrive in time, if at all.

Depends on what the issue is. Could be something that can be quickly fixed or not. Although going by the lack of a resolution I’m assuming it’s not.

Reality is, without knowing more about what’s causing this it’s impossible for either of us to say. If there is indeed some fundamental bottleneck that was previously not known, then I certainly won’t be surprised if it takes a while to sort out.

Now you can say they should’ve load tested, capacity planned etc etc. But we are where we are. Still can’t go back in time to turn this into a quickly fixable problem if it’s currently not.

Edit: also pretty disappointed that we don’t know more about the root cause. As an user I’d want to know what the issue was and what they are planning to do to about it to evaluate if I should trust them going forward.

> Calling this a "completely private healthcare system" is a bit misleading

The assets are privately owned. That’s completely private.

It’s not laissez faire. But those are different things. Subsidies and buying mandates are compatible with total privatisation, something often lost in this debate.

The SARS-CoV-2 test is or was $2000 without insurance. And now the private test clinics have it and get to charge whatever they want. In the past, such tests would be provided to the public for free. Instead, the poor and working-poor do without, have to go to work sick because they don't have sick days, and infect more people because they don't have a choice unless they want to lose their jobs, their housing, and become homeless.

I don't agree. There are three things that normal investors should be doing right now:

1 - Assess how you feel. Are you upset by the loss of value? Then you make be more risk averse than you thought. It might be wise to reconsider your asset allocation after this emergency is over. However, it's not wise to redo your allocation while the VIX is above 20ish.

2 - Check in with a financial adviser. This is a good reminder that your financial portfolio matters, and it is smart to use this as a prompt to check in on your financial health.

3 - This is the most important one, but you can't do it if you're not good on #1 and #2. REBALANCE YOUR PORTFOLIO. If you are allocated to risky and riskless assets then it is time to make sure that your allocation is still where you want it to be. It probably isn't. If your allocation to riskless assets is higher than you normally would like then you should sell riskless and buy risky.

Why is #3 so important? Because it allows you to collect a liquidity provider premium. Purchasing risky assets in volatile markets a) stabilizes the markets b) takes the advantaged side of the transaction. A lot of research stands behind this idea. Rebalancing in volatile environments is an easy and reliable way to outperform your peers over the long run.
Very true. Problem is that, while democracy to be effective requires people to be educated and informed, bad politicians aim to the opposite.
That seems horrible.

It will be GREAT.

Ok, maybe an overstatement. Fewer companies will be funded, many many will die. The market will viciously slaughter any weak business plans. But the few that survive will THRIVE. With brutal market pressure, only the best ideas will move forward... there will be a complete inability to hide from the reality of bad plans or execution. High quality employees will be more willing to join for less salary, extending runway. When the economy recovers, those scrappy survivors will already have market share and will be in the best possible to ride the wave upward to absolute dominance.

Seriously, if you want to join a startup, definitely consider looking for companies that seem to be doing well (or even doing pretty-much-ok) in the depths of the recession.

Speculation or do you have empirical data to back that up?
South Korea has been administering way more tests than anyone else: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/covid-19-testing/

There is plenty of evidence that many cases are asymptomatic or mild which means the true infection numbers for most countries are likely understated. So the true number of infected individuals in Italy is likely much higher than the reported number of cases.

The other thing to consider, is that with more comprehensive testing, quarantines become more targeted and effective. So South Korea might be having better success in keeping the virus away from at risk populations.
Google translate says:

I hate branding on glasses. I have a really old pair of Bausch & Lomb era Ray-Ban Wayfarers from back in the day. They have glass polarized lenses and 7-barrel hinges and they still look new, they've taken a beating over the years.

After Luxottica bought Ray-Ban and cannibalized their quality, introducing flimsy hinges and cheap plastic temples and lenses, they also started printing "Ray-Ban" not only on the temples but also the lenses. Yuck. Some people apparently love to display brands on their fashion no matter how cheap the quality is, but to me it makes it look cheap, tacky, and out of date (since in the time it takes for a brand to dominate in the way that Nike or Oakley and others do, they're already unfashionable).

This is false. "Catastrophic coverage" was ended because of the sheer wealth of data that these insurance policies did not in fact provide their customers with what the customers were expecting. That is: a person with such a policy who unfortunately suffered a major accident or severe illness would find the insurance company wriggling out of any financial responsibility.

The rules were tightened up, and without any explict legal language banning them, insurance companies dropped such policies because they knew they could not satisfy the new rules requiring actual coverage.

I get what you're saying, but there is a difference between discussing conspiracies that we know the CIA participated in, such as the overthrow of various governments, vs. theorizing about things such as framing someone with child porn. Both actions meet the definition of conspiracy, but we can discuss the facts of CIA conspiracies to overthrow governments without theorizing- the historians that wrote books about this aren't conspiracy theorists (well, not all of them). The second is actually being a conspiracy theorist- it's awful convenient to find child porn on someone's hard drive but we don't have any facts to support the idea.

In this case, the URL was invalid because the host component cannot contain a backslash unless percent encoded.

Now long would you maintain that quarantine? Is there some amount of time after which the virus will go away?

Any call for drastic measures, even when drastic measures seem like common sense to some people, need to explain why the measures should be implemented and under what circumstances they should be lifted.
Maybe he forgot about it? Maybe he made an opsec mistake? it can happen.

What you have is a conspiracy hypothesis not theory. "It is unlikely" is not enough, you gotta dig a bit deeper and find information that backs up motive ,methods and timeline after which you can try to independently corroborate that information to show it as fact
You're right that the president elected in 2016 wouldn't by themselves have been able to stop a pandemic or address major structural economic problems.

Grocery stores also use cameras to see how customers behave. I have not heard of them connecting them to face recognition systems, but I would not be surprised if they do.

I agree that this is another increase in the invasion of privacy that will probably end in a bad place. We need laws to prevent these systems, not just a few people holding on to scraps of privacy with desperate measures, like not buying a new car.

ok old blueyes.. you are not helping the argument here. In my opinion Lambda has an ex-employee who left under allegations of performance despite allegedly not being notified and yet being 5 months pregnant and now Lambda is suing her for 36k which is a trivial amount of money. What Lambda needs to do is IGNORE the negative press and FOCUS on customer satisfaction. Do not SUE former employees. It will not end well.
Are you saying we should stop blaming the other side because you think the other side isn’t to blame? What if there’s reasonable ways to explain how the other side is to blame? Or are you making an epistemological claim that the other side is never to blame? Or are you claiming that, even if the other side is to blame, we shouldn’t focus on that until we solve the problem?

> It might make sense to use something like memcmp() on structs to assert that they are exactly the same

No, actually, it doesn't make sense in general. Due to padding, structs may have arbitrary meaningless bytes between the actual data fields, and memcmp will break on those. It works because structs are often filled with zeroes on initialization, but it isn't required or enforced in any way. I was burnt by this problem more than once, not really fun to debug

Is anyone here aware of some research trying to quantify the death toll of such a large-scale quarantine?

For instance, closing universities could result many years later in ill-trained doctors and then bad diagnostics.

The economic downfalls could result in an increase of poverty and homelessness-related deaths and suicides.

do i understand correctly that this only works if all items in the store get an RFID tag?
i don't think that every banana and every tomato will come with an rfid tag, so cashiers at food retailers are probably safe, for now;

However they might create a special section in the supermarket reserved for the grocery and have everything else in a section with rfid tags, that would result in fewer jobs as cashiers.

however they might have to add people for adding rfid tags to each and every item in the store. Interesting how much every one of these options would cost them.

Office is React, because of C++.

Office and WinDev teams are the main reason why Longhorn failed, their collaboration with DevDiv wasn't particularly stellar.

They were pretty happy to redo Longhorn ideas using COM instead, then rejuvenating it into what is now UWP, naturally creating an incompatible .NET stack in the process, which might finally be done with when .NET 5 gets released.

Also Office team is so deep into C++ they even maintain their own VC++ branch.

You won't see those guys touching anything .NET beyond the absolutely necessary.

I'm not contesting that there were people who didn't understand their plans, there are people who don't understand their plans now. That doesn't change that they were low cost insurance products that could be combined with an untaxed HSA to produce a comparatively strong safety net at a low price for the consumer. It also doesn't change the all around price inflation that happened following the market consolidation that came in wake of the changes you mention.
