Technical people tend to overvalue their own contributions. User research, hiring, and leadership is a very real thing and has real value. Your friend recruited you, not the other way around... a very big value he provided is that he convinced you to join, and will presumably convince others to join in the future.

When you say I believe a fair split is where I have at least 50% of the company., you're saying that a split of 51%, 75%, or even 90% to you feels equitable. To state the obvious, if you have more than 50% it is no longer your friend's company, it is your company. That's not going to happen.

Let's turn this around for a moment: What if your friend got some VC money. Let's say he got a tiny seed round: $200k for 20% pre-money ($1M valuation). Now let's assume that you've invested 3 solid months building this app at $100/hr as a contractor (so, $50k -$60k dev work all-in). This implies that you've earned 5%-6% equity in the company for work already done. Your friend wants you to stay, to he offers an extra 5% for a round 10% equity. But wait you're a founder! you need more than that! You argue and thumb-wrestle or whatever and he agrees to 20% on a 4-year vest. This is probably fair.

By that analysis, 30% over 3 years is incredibly generous. But only you know your own situation.

COVID-19 CDC guidelines recommend droplet precautions[0], which means that the disease doesn't spread via the air. It spreads via droplets when you cough/sneeze. It's still bad, but it does mean that sharing air isn't a hazard by default.

If it was airborne, they would recommend different precautions[1].

If you know you have the covid virus, then you know you have a disease that is far more dangerous than the standard flu, and so you need to take much more stringent measures to prevent others from being infected. You also need to have to health dept trace out all the people you may have infected already.

> Does that mean that rhinoplasty should be covered by insurance under the same merits of sex reassignment surgery?

If someone's nose is causing as much distress as gender dysphoria, why not?

Sex reassignment surgery isn't easy to get, and presumably coverage for "corrective" cosmetic surgery would also take some evidence. Patients couldn't just make an appointment on a whim.
The bottom line is there isn't any quality data.
But there are a lot of clinical trials in patients going on, so there should be something more reliable in 4 weeks or so. The most relevant endpoint at this time is not viral clearance (which also has reliability issues), it is avoidance of severe disease requiring hospitalisation and respiratory support, in particular invasive ventilation. Also relevant is whether prophylactic treatment in people at high risk of infection, such as healthcare workers, is effective.

The treatment courses are short, so the side effects of hydroxychloroquine are largely irrelevant under the circumstances.
I'm avoiding most of the clickbait news sources, building more things with my hands (furniture from pallets for the terrace) and spending more time with my family. And I read a lot of fantasy books! That helps.

What I don't quite get is if a voter can verify that their vote was counted as they intended, how can they prove that it was not if it was not?

Or in other words if many people report that their vote was not counted correctly, can we trust them?

As a concrete example assume that Trump does not win the next election. But then a large number of his supporters claim that looking at the results online they can see their vote was not counted correctly. Can we prove that they are lying, if they are?
"The output executable is byte-for-byte identical with said release, which means that the source code accurately represents the original engine's behavior."

That seems crazy that someone could reverse engineer compiled code back into the higher level language it came from, and then have that code compile into the exact same executable. Obviously, you can keep modifying the code until it matches, but it's still impressive for anything other than a small program.

And there is also the possibility of foul game, that can't be discarded and would be difficult to prove. Is a low probability but real risk. Unfortunately angels of mercy appear sometimes, often enough to have their own category.

There's a couple ways that 'reinfection' could be reported right?

- The test may have had a false negative

- The viral load was low due to anti-virals, and subsequently re-surged once off them

- The person has a compromised immune system and cannot form proper immunity.

I wouldn't have a problem being chosen to be one of the "skeleton crew". But I'd have a huge problem with the leader not doing the right thing for the group, namely having most people not come in.

The issue isn't just peer pressure, it's giving people the choice at all, pushing them into a conflict of interest. Telling them to do what makes them feels best seems reflexively correct to many people not just Musk, but it's not.

I don't think ETF's are relevant to the discussion at hand, and of course liquidity doesn't change the number of shares, nobody's saying it does.

But your main point in this comment seems to be:

> If this is a truly capitalistic society - what should really happen is that all the bought back stock needs to be reissued (sold back) into the market...

But why should stock buybacks have to result in shares later being reissued, and what on earth does that have to do with "true capitalism"?

None of that makes any sense at all. The entire point of a buyback is to raise the stock price, as an alternative to issuing dividends. Saying that stock needs to be reissued later is like saying all dividends ought to be paid back by investors in the future. It doesn't make sense, indeed defeats the entire point.

The radius of curvature is much bigger than distances we daily measure, for a similar reason when dealing with small distances on the surface of the earth you can use flat, Euclidean geometry.

Isn't this exactly what happened on Instagram?
True, but the same was said for Instagram and Twitter. They both still have a public API for developers and then cracked down on the third-party apps and clients on the App Store with a policy change. Sure, developers can still use these public APIs as long as they don't release an app that is a full clone of their official apps.

If Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter and Discord can draw the line on third-party clones, with the release of the official GitHub apps, they can also do this too.

With a bit of creativity, you can achieve most things with the existing GNU make functions. Often the result is far from readable and relies on side-effects like sorting removing duplicates. But at least you don't need to worry about make being built with guile support.

Guile does give you access to most system calls. The most interesting thing I've done with this is have the gmake process create a fifo, fork and exec tee in the child process to save a copy of the build output. It doesn't entirely work if gmake re-execs itself after building included makefiles.

I've also tried doing a loadable module in C - to output timing to benchmark changes to my Makefile. I have a non-recursive setup which can take a few seconds at startup.

The guile scripts are mostly limited to running during the initial make stage where dependencies are all gathered. You can't avoid the shell forks during the build process. There are also limitations in the strings being passed back to gmake so it didn't help greatly with colourising output when I tried that.

Thats a good idea, for people that haven't opted out using privacy settings.

I think that Social Media should do what it does best and hashtag shame people not heeding the warnings, eg. If you see a person partying at the bar instead of staying home, share and shame them for their selfish actions. Same goes for people at the beaches.

Every now and then I read some far-out scientific paper, and I'm pretty sure it's real, but I get fascinated with the question of how I really know that it's not pseudo-science by some crank.

(from "The existence of topological edge states in honeycomb plasmonic lattices")

I like node for really fast productivity, at the cost of a little potential stability... not the absolute best performance, but usually good enough.

Up from there would imho be Go or C#, mostly because they're faster than node, but still very accessible, and really good support around them for web services. Certain workloads are still not great. I think Java is probably okay, I just personally don't care for it, apparently it's gotten better than when I last used it regularly over a decade ago.

Rust is when you want balls out absolute performance in a language with newer, higher level features and constructs. The unsafe escape hatch is really there if/when you need it, but should not be the norm. The final executable size on rust is also impressive and will work very well in some constrained environments, or when you need better execution performance and more control than the others provide (outside of C/C++, D and a couple others).

I've only built a couple smaller web apps with rust so far, but the output size is impressive. Being able to build to a bare container or with busybox if some in-container scripting is needed has been a great experience so far.
I did a similar calculation but came back more optimistically (although still on scale of a year to two).

You only need count over 18s as very few cases in this group. It is believed by the UK experts to have a lower fatality rate of 1% and likely lower admission rate due to asymptomatic infections (estimates at 16-75%). Ventilator capacity can increase with stopping surgery and CPAP/other measures can be used in some cases. Treatments developed later should improve efficiency of treatment. Extra ventilators should be manufactured and help ease burden. I think 80% is too high, likely more 60% given an R0 of 2-3. Finally, the chronically unwel elderly are unlikely to benefit from ITU care significantly and would never qualify. With these exceptions it gets down to 1-2 years depending on assumptions.

The way these laws work would not necessitate that. People who are old, disabled or queer are not required to carry a card or get a face tattoo. You are simply unable to descriminate on that variable, whatever the value is (old or young, able or unable, etc).
