It doesn’t really matter. With this simplistic view the hotel is breaching the contract. There is a mutuality of obligation. If the customer is obligated to pay for a room then the hotel is obligated to provide the service.
A substantial fraction of the complexity of IPsec actually is the fault of the various vendors and implementations -- and is technically the complexity of IKE rather than IPsec in most cases.

It's actually quite simple under the hood and frankly can't be made much simpler while still achieving the security objectives. The often wildly overcomplicated configuration syntax together with subtle differences in implementation defaults, cipher and parameter naming are what I see creating challenges for vendor interoperability.
Investing is just lending money to people who need to buy something, such as capital. That money is still spent. In fact it needs to be spent on production, in order to produce returns.

You can’t just store wealth in a vault and have it grow.
Terraform isn't equivalent to Puppet, Chef, or Salt. It's a tool for specifying cloud deployments, not a configuration management system.

DigitalOcean might be fine. So is Arch Linux. But if someone just wants to get on with what they're interested in with a minimum of fuss over time, it wouldn't be the right recommendation.
There's nothing unethical about a wealth tax. Billionaires made their fortunates on the backs of society and have only maintained that power and wealth through corruption and bribery. They should have never had that money to begin with.
There is no deployed serological test at present.
How is it fair for the hotel to pay for the consumer's gamble in booking a non-refundable room?

They just got unlucky and they should suck it up.

If the hotel has to refund everyone, it will either have to go under, or if it is too big to fail, be bailed out with my money.

I don't see why I should pay for someone's else gamble.
We (at least, in the US) have a strategic reserve of functioning ventilators. What's going to be worse is lack of trained operators.

We'd hit the ventilator bottleneck even if not for them, but the operator bottleneck will come much sooner.
In Europe many industries, including air travel are at or over capacity. Airlines operate at razer thin margins. We might see some consolidation in the market which could decrease the overhead costs, but not by much. There is simply no room to decrease prices that much. And there is not much evidence that the demand is very price-elastic either. Air travel has more competition by other forms of travel with less safety restrictions, less climate impact stigma, etc.
I've been using wireguard lately on my phone and laptop. I can tell that it's leaps and bounds faster than openVPN in terms of pure network throughput but also in terms how fast it establishes a channel. With such performance it is a viable always-on VPN solution. In other words, it's a game changer.

Regarding IPSEC: I have never been able to reliably configure and use IPSEC, and I'm in IT for several decades. Not that it can't be done, it's just too complex, so much so that it only makes sense for large companies to hire and train specialists who can do it. If wireguard offers similar throughput but eliminates complexity, I'd say it makes sense to replace IPSEC with it, if only to reduce complexity
QE added ~$3 trillion cumulatively to the money supply at its peak. And most of it sat on banks' balance sheets because in a $200+ trillion global financial asset market ($300+ trillion today), $3 trillion doesn't do much to change banks' incentive structure for making loans, it just propped up the existing incentive structures so the whole system didn't collapse.

I can't fathom how adding $2+ trillion every year directly to working Americans' wallets wouldn't lead to greater consumer price inflation than we've seen with QE. That doesn't actually tell us much about whether UBI is worthwhile, but I don't see the point in denying it. In fact, it's important to have that discussion because there are ways we could mitigate it. For example, most of UBI would likely get sucked up by supply-constrained markets like housing, so it's probably a good idea to combine UBI with housing reform, such as development as of right for missing middle multifamily projects.

I agree, we should have an exit plan. But we should also have an entry plan.
How coffee took over the world
The "wage slaves" are given the opportunity to leave and work at any other company that will hire them and yet willingly choose not to. That implies quite a non-traditional definition of slavery.
Well, maybe in the hopes it would give you weird dreams?
Not vouching for the suggested treatment but chloroquine acts as a zinc ionophere enabling increased zinc binding/intake in cells, inhibiting RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, which would theoretically ultimately encumber the replication of the virus.
The conservatives into UBI are hoping for that but at least with Yang's plan there was the choice of continuing with old benefits if they are higher.

Although this choice is probably pretty easy mathematically, it's kind of a terrible choice to have to make, so after a while the plan changed to saying it would stack on top of some other benefits.

(But none of this matters because whatever Congress might do would be different.)
An authoritarians' dream; trivially tied to some version of a social credit score.

It seems like it's time for them to move in together. The question of what one considers "family" is up for debate/exploitation.
Honest answer: No, because that would mean to return to Hobbesian world.

Taxes are a way to pay for communal goods. We don't pay enough of them - our obsession with cutting them is part and parcel of the disastrous response to SARS2-CoV.

I very much like having a government that can step in during emergencies and distribute the load. I like living in a society where we care about other people to.

Abolishing taxes is strictly "me first, fuck the rest". I suggest people who like this approach try living in Somalia for a while, that's their desired end state.
Looks great, Ivan. Congrats!
If I understand correctly you would use Spacy and some pre-trained models to validate human labels. Now my question is that what is the point of collecting labels for ML training if we already have a valid model for the same task that can complement human labels?
Capitalism can't provide housing, utilities, food, medical care and education for free.

People would just quit their job if they got all that with no effort. Then how would the government be able to pay for the free stuff if it wasn't able to tax workers?

Edit: It occurred to me the government could lock people up in work camps in order to be able to tax them.
But rather insoluble in water. Boil that stuff down, filter it, toss the sugary filtrate and eat the filter.

edit: might be able to do some acid-base work for better results.
There's an idea there, what if we turned empty hotel rooms into covid-19 care facilities? Then you can isolate a good number of infected in one place that you can keep an eye on.
Personally, I would rather fight for making the world a cleaner/healthier place to live without trying to sacrifice socioeconomic well being, especially of those at the margins of our societies who can barely make a living doing the most laborious and strenuous tasks.

Trying to take away/cut things people have come to expect and offer nothing of equivalent in return? Good luck with that.
If that is so then you should make your point without having to create a false story.
Hard to tell, this damn Virus couldn't have exploded at a worse time. Flu season, Pollen count is high, and Corona is around.

Is there a test to tell if you've had the virus? (i.e. you have the anti bodies)? I think that would calm a lot of people. Still can't find an easy to test place in the US. We are lacking with testing so much... If people could get tested to determine if they already had it, it would help to return those folks back to the work-force quicker.

80% of cases show mild to no symptoms, so basically I could have had it, but I don't know cuz there's no damn test!
Presumably companies that supply carbon free energy still get paid only when they actually supply energy. Even though they may not have to purchase fuel they would still make no money and have all of their operating costs. I don’t see why the effect of reduced demand on those generation companies wouldn’t be the same as the price or electrical energy went to zero - unless rate payers have taken on all the risk and pay whether or not any energy is generated.
The capsule for the 57 & the 58 are the same; it's the shell that ultimately determines the rejection pattern of the thing.
Yep. Also Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Billionaires skim like .5-2% in margins off the top of the companies and relationships they build. People get paid throughout. This is nonsense.
Much longer, but there is no alternative. If we don't, in a few weeks our hospitals are beyond breaking point.
My wife and I had these exact symptoms in late Jan in Los Angeles. I’m an educator and noticed very many more students getting sick during this period than normal. Had I not caught it myself, I’d have chalked this up to increased hypochondria due to coronavirus in the news. But I find myself wondering if it’s been here much longer than currently estimated.
True. But the 5 year holding period
doesn't start until conversion to a c-corp. So, plan accordingly.
The social contract didn't "evaporate" - it was never followed by the richer half, and at some point, people got tired of being shat upon.

I suggest we start addressing inequalities and maybe all cut back a bit and share the burden, instead of hoarding now and then being surprised that the people unable to hoard object to that idea when nothing is left for them, at all. That means taking care of the working class and the homeless, too.
Agreed! Even mindmaps fail at this when an idea is dependent upon a thought or observation in another branch. You have to add a bunch of notes, experiment with different less intuitive structuring of the idea, or MAYBE buy the premium version of the software!
Sure, but the parent posts are discussing (illegal) immigration which is the jurisdiction of ICE.

There's not much controversy over the people who cross illegally but stay temporarily and close to the border. Those are just traffickers and cartels.
Here is one. I have the experience, network and know how to make any medical device one would want. What do you want to make? Let's do it
I'd be very surprised if there was one ounce of truth to this.
I've worked implementing payment systems for large institutions. It's standard for the existing balance of the transaction to be taken into account when an amendment is made to a purchase that has yet to be settled.

Example: You purchase $100 worth of widgets, process the payment then 5 minutes later call up and add another $100 of widgets to your order prior to the order being shipped. Your original purchase won't get refunded. Your order will be amended and you'll be charged another $100 to settle the outstanding amount. I'd be a little surprised if something as sophisticated as a hotel booking system didn't implement a basic account ledger.
Yep, it's redistribution. To tell what's really going on (like how progressive it is) you need to combine it with the revenue side and what the net gain or loss for each person is.

Everyone getting the same amount is symbolic equality. Symbolism can be important, though!

UBI looks far more expensive than it actually is because for many people, they'd be getting some of their own money back, similar to a tax refund. It's still expensive, though.

General description of Mologic/Sherlock Bioscience technology:

"Mologic said it will invest a part of an expansion to its $4.9m grant from the Bill and Melinda-Gates Foundation to finance access to Sherlock's INSPECTR™ platform, which the Cambridge-based US company licences earlier this year from the Wyss Institute.

Under the agreement, Mologic will provide its lateral flow-based platform CARD, which has been demonstrated to provide a 1,000-fold improvement in sensitivity over current technology, and its immunoassay platform ELTABA for enzyme activity detection. Sherlock Bioscience will provide its synthetic biology-based INSPECTR™ platform, which consists of a DNA hybridization-based sensor that can be easily programmed to detect target nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) with single base pair specificity, coupled with a paper-based synthetic gene network that translates the sensor’s detection into a bioluminescent signal that is easily visualised or captured on instant film. Crucially, this process can be done at room temperature and does not require any instrumentation."

I don't think anyone is suggesting that we restart everything back to normal in 3 weeks.
Medium is a bit backwards. Their intention is to clean up commenting but all it really does is raise the bar of entry such that people often don't even bother regardless of intent.

A lot of medium posts/articles that should have opposing views as comments are often one sided echo chambers because of this.
the distinguishing benefit of reading, particularly more challenging works (of any genre), is improved reading comprehension and likely improved written ability as well, skills that have immense value in day-to-day life. Arguably video games and movies don’t have the same trickle over benefits. That being said I have an immense respect for the value of film and I imagine video games have certain benefits as well.
I think his most compelling policy is not UBI, but giving the people money to spend on politics. This country is suffocated by special interests, which create draconian laws for all of us to follow just so that they can collect a little bit ore money. Just filing the taxes alone is a monumentally frustrating experience. This needs to be streamlined, but it will never be until corporations are stripped from their lobbying.
Most startups on the venture track aren't profitable or reinvest any profits into growing the business. No profits = no tax. So double taxation usually isn't a problem.
Would taking signal or similar encrypted app and removing the ability to share files and images avoid the issues caused by the Graham-Blumenthal Bill?
Pleased add the "join"
This makes no sense.

For example, even with UBI, a startup will still tend to want to locate in Silicon Valley than in, say, Amarillo Texas.

The sheer ability to grab a drink with someone who can change you life in tech does not exist in the same proportion in Amarillo as it does in Silicon Valley. Hence, housing prices will differ.

This is also why there are more oil companies in Houston than in Atlanta, despite the roughly same size metro area.
My primary concern with UBI is not the concept itself, but the risk for people in power to use it against the people.

Once UBI exists, people will rely on it for survival. It will be the single most influential campaign topic.

Worse, if UBI were to get 'Obamacared' then we'd end up with a massive battle over implementation, followed by a much worse system than the one we had prior (worst of all worlds with numerous 'compromises'), and then followed by a repeal and whatever subsequent chaos comes out of it.

I don't want to imagine what would happen to the folks who find themselves reliant on UBI if it were to go down that path.

No, they are marketed as "non-refundable." As in, you don't come, you don't get a refund. End of story.

With that said, many hotel chains and airlines have suspended their typical non-refundable rules, so a simple phone call would likely suffice.
> But what does that have to do with anything? Wireguard certainly doesn't compete with IPsec ASICs.

I appreciate that you are not making that claim and I'm glad that we agree. However, that "WireGuard is faster than IPsec" is exactly what the authors are claiming without qualification, and supporting with controversial data, on the official website. As such I believe examination of the claim is justified.

> Unfortunately we live in the real world where this assumption doesn't hold true.

Yet we are in a rational discussion of the merits of the two protocols, in which outliers that introduce additional variables should be first discovered, then examined individually, rather than dismissing the first order effects out of hand on the supposition that outliers influenced by additional variables may exist.
We are not getting any economic growth right now.
Why would I choose to jump through bureaucratic and degrading welfare programs for vouchers and discounts when I can opt-in to a superior UBI program that gives me cash which I can use for anything? I'm the one who best knows how to effectively allocate those resources in my life. E.g. What good are food stamps when I have no gas (or car) to get to the store?

There are some social services that are necessary and beneficial but these should be built on top of a UBI foundation for maximum effectiveness.
You don't want to pay $1/month to store a single secret. You want a nicer workflow for creating ephemeral users and tokens than AWS themselves have. You want to do on-the-fly encryption of all sorts of things. You want a real PKI without every bit of know-how.
I just want to point out that while the author apologizes for his poor English, the entire github README actually explains the motivation, history and high-level architecture very clearly. I wish more projects covered all those points on their landing pages.

In the absence of taxes, a buyback is equivilent to a dividend with automatic reinvestment.

Nobody prices in a once in a century, global pandemic when looking for a hotel room: not the customer and not the hotel. If the room was booked more than 3 months ago, the agreement was based on false information and should be able to be renegotiated in light of the current state of the world.

Confirmed cases don't mean shit. Reporting is garbage because we don't have enough tests available.

South Korea has been testing en-masse for over a month now and was able to get ahead of the virus spreading, hence the low number of deaths, whereas Italy's reporting is mostly people who already had severe symptoms, and people with mild or no symptoms probably aren't even part of the reporting numbers.

"What is SHERLOCK™?

SHERLOCK is an evolution of CRISPR technology, which others use to make precise edits in genetic code. SHERLOCK can detect the unique genetic fingerprints of virtually any DNA or RNA sequence in any organism or pathogen. Developed by our founders and licensed exclusively from the Broad Institute, SHERLOCK is a method for single molecule detection of nucleic acid targets and stands for Specific High Sensitivity Enzymatic Reporter unLOCKing. It works by amplifying genetic sequences and programming a CRISPR molecule to detect the presence of a specific genetic signature in a sample, which can also be quantified. When it finds those signatures, the CRISPR enzyme is activated and releases a robust signal. This signal can be adapted to work on a simple paper strip test, in laboratory equipment, or to provide an electrochemical readout that can be read with a mobile phone."

Earlier versions of xfce (3.x?) had a distinctive CDE inspired look and feel. Having become used to CDE from using it on HP-UX at a summer job, I used xfce on my Linux machine at home for several years. It was a decent UI for the time, though the bar at the bottom used quite a lot of screen real estate on the 15" (?) CRT I had at the time.
There's some point between "take nothing" and "take everything including your family home, dog, and toothbrush" where most people would believe a wealth tax to be unethical. I think this is what GP was trying to say, without picking a spot on the continuum.
You're absolutely right — Brave's behaviour is entirely transparent. The part that's disingenuous is the comment I was replying to, trying to argue that the multiple calls to action are anything but an attempt at driving social media engagement.
I've seen chloroquine come up a ton and am hopeful for the efficacy of its use in treatment of COVID-19. It's surreal to be observing the global impact of a novel pandemic, and anything that can save lives or blunt the propagation of the virus feels like a gasp of hope.

Of course, chloroquine is not a vaccine, it's not a tool to contain the spread of SARS-CoV-2. We need massive and rapid propagation of testing, and meaningful progress toward a vaccine.
Shame they didn’t make this 64-bit only.
The paper says clinical tests used both chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine. In discussing the results, they don't seem to differentiate between the two, unless I missed it.
In a few days time we ran out of space in the hospitals so unless you're dying you don't really get treatment. Businesses will die and peoples life will be ruined.

Not to the point of being homeless though, maybe living in the slum being dependent on government payout. (Which is not a fun existence)

Sweden is talking about herd immunity just as the UK because we don't have the capacity to handle it.

It's literally not a UBI, did you not see the OP spell that out?

Means-tested welfare is misaligned with productivity because the money stops coming once you make more. A UBI is a more pragmatic, efficient approach to reducing wealth inequality.
> a history of making thoroughly unrealistic and unscientific predictions

I thought you were going to say "a history of making thoroughly unrealistic goals come to fruition" because that seems more accurate.
Hydroxychloroquine is currently used by the Korean CDC for treating COVID-19
