The NHS regularly has to cancel routine operations in order to free up space for flu patients during the flu season, which might be one reason why the bed usage seems so uniform. Obviously if they're already doing that for flu it leaves less slack in the system if something else comes along.

Not everybody is changing the phone or computers as often. Say if someone gifts me an old iPhone and the battery is getting old I do not have any Apple store around to replace it, I will be forced to trash a working phone because sending it to the country capital for an approved person to install an approved battery is probably more expensive then buying a new phone.
There is a shortage either way; there hasn't been a change in the amount of the drug or the number of people who want it in either scenario. If anything, the price going up will increase production and the shortage will lessen as fast as the logistics chain can manage.

Basically instead of people choosing where it goes a government agency/hospital system chooses where it goes. After the CDC testing debacle, hopefully people understand that giving control to the government isn't a clear cut win. It is good if people have some control over their own destiny.
Apologies, I misread you.
There is still plenty of ability though. I have a table saw in my garage, If I'm needed to stop my computer job I can make a couple jigs and turn out bed rails, someone else in my town can turn out legs, (repeat for a lot of other parts), then the whole kit gets sent to other people with just a screwdriver.

My own theory is that there is no entanglement and no link between the particles, it is just that the particle states are affected the moment they are created.

I also think that light is not a wave and that light particles are not fired in a straight line in the double slit experiment; they are fired at an angle, and then they bounce off the slits and create the interference pattern; and when we put a detector in front of the slits, it only serves as creating new light particles that do not have this angle in them and they go straight ahead, making the diffraction pattern disappear.

And it's not that quantum math is wrong; it's right, but my intuition says that any system can be described by statistics.

As for quantum mechanics applications, all the applications mentioned (from clocks to computers to anything the article and other articles mention) are not based in any QM specific property. None of those applications are actually dependent on entanglement and on collapsing the wave function, and entanglement cannot be used for any application despite what they write in articles because it would violate the principles of relativity. And none of those applications would cease to exist if light was not an actual wave and photons simply moved in wave patterns.

And about right to repair I have bad experience: broken cable is enough for lots of buyers to throw away electronic appliances. Let’s be honest: majority of users will cause more harm than do good when repairing something. Another thing is planned obsolescence when electronics die right after warranty period ends.

As mentioned, AssumeRole is a critical part of a multi-account strategy, which is considered an AWS best practice. In addition to that, it is an integral part of an SSO strategy. Ideally, instead of a pile of IAM users with separate credentials, user identities should be federated from your identity provider (like Auth0, Ping, AzureAD, whatever). There are a number of setups, but they all boil down to your users trading their corporate identity for temporary AWS credentials via something like an AssumeRoleWithSAML call. This is only slightly more complicated to set up than a good IAM user/group architecture, but has the benefit of not needing to deal with IAM users and multiple sets of identities for your users. You can also map particular roles back to something like AD groups to control who can assume what.

IMHO they simply (for one reason or the other, but not intentionally/with malice) underestimated the seriousness of the problem at hand and thought that they would have created panic/economy disasters/etc..

The issue seems to me that even now quite a few governments are failing to introduce adequate measures to stop the spread before the number of cases increases too much.
This maybe happens if the product is cheap or if you have the enough money so wasting your time sending a product to a repair person costs you more. But don't forget that a major issue is companioes like Apple using copyright laws to forbid sharing of repair manuals, sharing of diagnostic software and forbiding selling of components to other people then Apple.

Allowing people sharing a repair manual, a diagnose software won't harm any consumer.

SSO is based on AssumeRole which issues temporary credentials (session tokens) instead of using static credentials. SSO-like centralized access management is important to prove that when someone leaves your company that you cut off their access to all data and systems, much easier to do that when everyone uses SSO.

SOC2 doesn’t specify git branch logistics. In general you need to prove all system changes were reviewed, justified, and approved by another person. The goal is no single person can deploy unsupervised production system changes, and the justification for changes were approved and documented. How you do that is all in the art of IT.

> On many modern devices, you don't have "a battery", you have battery cells fit into every available space and wired together. You're certainly welcome to try replacing those. I just don't want to see that reverted to a discrete battery design.

Source for this. No device has unpackaged unprotected battery cells just floating around.

They may have many discrete batteries to use up all of the available space, but each unit is self contained with protection electronics and can be swapped independently of the others.

This effeciency doesn't simply go away, so. In the worst case scenarios we are discussing here, the relevant products are only asmall portion of global trade and supply chains. You could, for example, completely ignore Apple's operations under this scenario.

These critical porducts, and the coresponding manufacturing base, will be part of the critical infrastructure to be kept running. Automation is a huge benefit for this, as these operations can be run with a very limited number of people. Distribution and transportation is the same, it can be kept up for the essentials with a very limited amount of people. Even internationally, container ships continued to sail from Chinese ports. Granted, sometimes they sailed empty, but that was due to the shut-down of Chinese manufacturing.

In a true worst case scenario, dedicated ports will be kept running. again wth close to no people involved.

Administration for all this can be done to a huge part from home. Feet on the ground are by no means as important anyore as they used to be.

a situation like this should be avoided at all cost so. Hence the measures currently being taken.
This is one benefit of democracies. People can form alternate leadership structures with different strengths and focuses, without them trying to wrest power at unpredictable times.

One of the things I love about nethack is that these things effectively amount to magic. Arcane knowledge of how the (virtual) works underneath beneath that which is (virtually) physical allows you to manipulate the world in strange ways that seem logically impossible. Nethack developers are among the few who can claim that a bug is a feature and be half-serious about it :-).
I understand that the approach has some degree of internal consistency, but it requires a huge amount of trust in the underlying models, and in our ability to pull the right levers at the right time in the future. I can totally accept that any approach _must_ address what happens for the entire period from now up until immunity or vaccination - we know we can't keep everything shut down until 2021. But the government is hoping to tap the brakes when the outbreak is going at 100mph, compared to controlling acceleration from the standing start of lockdown. This is an immense and shocking gamble. I hope it works, although would mean every other country appears to be making a huge mistake by shutting down now.

>because according to Kepler's third law, it ....

Kepler's law is an approximation, and it most certainly does not hold over large time scales. Heck, it fails on short time frames too - one of the early successes of relativity was to explain the precession of Mercury's perihelion from Kepler style theory to observation.

Heck, even restricting to classical physics, Kepler's law fails as soon as you have three bodies, since the derivation is only for a two body problem. A third (or more) body makes his laws fail. Our solar system has well over thousands of bodies all interacting.

So this is only an argument for the invariance of the (incomplete) model of Kepler, but fails in real life. We have plenty of better models (i.e., that agree better with observation) that are not invariant.

It makes sense that vaccines need more careful assessment before rollout than treatment pharmaceuticals. When the medical infrastructure has reached triage grade saturation, even coin toss treatment candidates could become rational if they can run in parallel to conventional treatment. Exposing the still healthy to a vaccine is an entirely different risk calculation.

A reasonably opportunity to throw money at the problem would be to fund speculative production ramp-up for likely candidates ahead of approval, this should not be left to the invisible hand alone.

The intellectual property system may have been intended as a force for good. However, it's gotten to the point where everyone knows how to abuse the system and get away with it. There is no reason for anyone to recognize it as a legitimate.

Companies file deliberately vague all-encompassing patents that are very hard to understand and pretty much useless for the purpose of educating the public and advancing the state of the art. Patents are merely weapons to be used against competitors. Companies file patents despite the existence of prior art and not only are they granted by the patent office but they're also allowed to stand uncontested due to the prohibitively expensive nature of patent litigation.

Disney and its copyright industry friends lobbied the government and successfully cheated the public out of its public domain rights by extending the duration of copyright to ludicrous lengths.

The RFA source in the taiwan news mentioned the replacement took place in Feburary, and you can see that Zhong Nanshan remains in a leadership role up to yesterday [1].
A similar source [2] to the RFA one mentioned that Zhong was replaced on a post called "新冠病毒专家组组长" (leader of the COVID expert group); he's more commonly known as "国家卫健委高级别专家组组长" (leader of the senior expert group in national health commission; see [1]). Judging from the titles it's likely normal personnel changes.

I didn't miss the point; this discussion is conflating two separate ideas of ownership: physical ownership of an item (gold, dollars in-hand), and unrestricted (unrestrictable?) use of an item (bitcoin, and to a limited extent dollars in-hand and gold).

There's four things in play in this discussion, and they each fit those ideas differently. Paper dollars in the hand, digital dollars in a wallet, gold in the hand, and bitcoin. This discussion would be over if better definitions of 'ownership' were used.
To quote the article,
