> The standard offers no interpretation of any undefined behavior, that's literally what meant by undefined

Correct.

> There is no execution of a program that contains UB that could be considered 'valid' by the standard.

That strikes me as backward. It would be more correct to say There is no execution of a program that contains UB that could be considered 'invalid' by the standard.

Even this isn't quite precise enough though. If there's undefined behaviour in a function which is never used, that doesn't cause the program to have undefined behaviour.

> The compiler has no choice, it has to define its own interpretation.

No, it doesn't. That's only true of implementation-defined behaviour. In the case of undefined behaviour, the program doesn't even have to behave the same way every time.

I like that this approach doesn't measure money, but energy usage. Energy always feels to me like the real currency and form of wealth. Normally, we want to increase the amount of energy we can spend, alas we need to find better ways of doing so.

>>This trend of measuring what resources rich people use compared to everyone else just snacks of jealousy.

It's interesting that you bring up jealousy as argument on the distribution of a limited resource. There are reasons for people to be jealous of others. e.g. Not having enough or people getting more than their fair share through having won the birth lottery or other types of luck.

>>Who cares if energy distribution isn't "equitable"??

I personally don't too much, because I'm lucky enough to have a relatively well paid job in a generally stable country, that is unlikely to bear the brunt of climate change (unless the gulf stream switches off and we start experiencing European Winters), should my circumstances be different, I might be more inclined to care a lot more than I do.

But you know all of this
It's not the consumption of resources that's the problem, it's the unnecessary, totally out of bounds consumption of resources while other people pay the bill for said boundless consumption.

It's fine to eat as much as you want, it's not fine to force other people to deal with your excrements.

I'm not sure if I'd call "My crop is failing and me and my family are starving because of climate change and the resulting changed weather patterns" and argument from jealousy though.

I feel like the quote you pulled out of Youtube is slightly unfair in the extent to which he endorses the idea. In my opinion, it sounds like he full-throat endorses the general method and aim of the idea just not the exact transfer amounts and the method to raise revenue (sales/VAT tax vs carbon tax). Here is the quote in more context:

"The plan is just a version of the negative income tax. Milton Freedom first proposed it...and as a student 40 years ago I thought it was a pretty good idea. And it turns out I wasn't alone in that judgement...In 1968 a 1000 economists endorsed a negative income tax along these lines. What Andrew Yang is proposing is a version of what these 1000 economists endorsed back in 1968. Could 1000 economists all be wrong? Laughs Well yes they could. But I don't think in this case they are. My own view is that a universal income financed by an efficient tax, something like a value added tax, might well be worth considering. And I'm one of the signatories...of a plan to do something similar with a carbon tax."

> it can define it as to not to be an adversary to the writer of the code.

We see peculiar things happen when there's undefined behaviour, because of the way compilers' optimisers work. It would be possible to tame the way undefined behaviour manifests, but this would trade off against the compiler's ability to optimise. If that weren't the case, everyone would be doing it.
Yeah, sure; I'm equally appalled Poe's Law hasn't been considered, especially on a site like HN.
> Reddit has been a very good source of information in this crisis.

Got to be joking right? Reddit is pretty much the battleground of misinformation. It's run by think tanks, ngos, intel, media, etc. Most of the threads and most comments are pretty much anti-china propaganda along with some pro-china nonsense. That's it. Every gilded and boosted thread and comment are of a particular propaganda bent.

> That's not as big of a problem in Reddit because of moderation and voting, compared to Facebook and the likes.

The problem with reddit is precisely the moderation. It's why you have garbage echo chambers like r/politics, r/the_donald, r/worldnews, r/news, r/china, r/atheism, [do I need to continue]. Even the coronavirus related subs are heavily politically driven.

Because of the rise of moderation, reddit has turned into hives of extreme echo chambers. Whereas in the past, most major subs allowed all viewpoints, now each sub moderates toward a particular worldview and you get the worst echo chambers.

You get the worst echo chambers due to moderation and censorship. Moderation and censorship doesn't prevent echo chambers and extremism. It promotes it. It's why nazi germany, soviet union, north korea, saudi arabia, silicon valley, etc love moderation and censorship.

Coronavirus is hitting back hard on behalf of nature.

Pollution levels in worst hit areas have come down. Industries have shut down and economic activity has subsided.

Coronavirus is in a way a ironic fk you to Humans. Its the kind of enemy that we as a civilization are worse prepared for.

Even after all the technological breakthroughs, we are still nowhere.

With our current technology we can easily tell whether there is a cat or a dog in a picture, but can't tell quickly enough whether a asymptomatic person standing right in front of you has Corona infection.

I'd love to see the EU to start addressing this by setting higher environmental standards, putting them in force locally and apply such taxes to imported products.
> Some of the oldest books are written on bamboo stripes, and others on clay tablets.

exactly. there used to be physical scrolls too before the romans invented the paginated codex. all of those older tech died later because it was hard to beat direct access, referential accessibility and format-ability of the modern physical codex book. our current tech emulates the physical scroll too and is therefore not able to compete with dead tree books.
I do not see what the problem is. People with small children get sick leaves many times per year, because children get ill in kindergarten very often. I know women who will get 5-10 one to two day sick leaves per year due to menstruation cramps.

People are not robots, people get ill. I have very good employer which would never question employees job security due to illness. If you do not - search for a better one, join a union and/or inform your colleagues that their rights are protected by law.

The horror stories I hear about evil employers - usually the employers themselves would be the first to take sick leaves or have luxury long lasting holidays that the employees cannot enjoy. Such employees are conditioned to slave away and forget that their rights are protected by law.

"Also there are plenty of entitlement programs already and replacing them with UBI would probably yield less total cost from simpler implementation and less bureaucracy, while making it more available."

This is a fundamental flaw in the argument.

1) That a 'single program' will be cheaper. Maybe, but maybe not. My government spent more than $1 Billion implementing a simple 'gun registry' for police to store gun records.

(They spent $100M on a 'judicial assessment' of Aboriginal community's historical crimes - not a single study or dollar was spent on scientific analysis, research. Just lawyers.)

2) That any way shape or form those 'other programs' will disappear or a single government worker will lose their jobs.

The most powerful bodies in the world are Public Sector Unions. Tell me, what is the turnover rate for such jobs? How often are people laid off? Fired? What salary do they earn compared to private sector peers? How often are government agencies that have lost their material relevance shut down?

So aside from all of the regular arguments about UBI, social impact, cost, redistribution ... all of the arguments about 'efficiency' are completely moot. Government projects are generally extremely inefficient - they tend to work best through regulation, and/or competitive bidding for work that can be independently assessed, or when there's a social element. For example, road work and construction: we can roughly estimate cost, there are many bidders, and it's outsourced, not done directly by gov staff. This is efficient. Public schools are roughly efficient. Garbage collection. etc.
I still don't think we can put out the fire by pouring more fuel.

For instance, rents are proportionally related to the income of the population. How can we prevent the extra cash flow from being translated into higher rent/housing prices? If I have that extra cash, I would certainly 'leverage' it to expand my real estate portfolio :)

That said, I don't object to UBI per se and I agree that the Fed's policy would lead to some undesirable consequences. But without addressing the problem systematically, UBI would go nowhere better, I am afraid.
I don't think anyone knowledgeable is assuming reported cases make up all or even a significant proportion of infected cases (I myself am in recovery from moderate lung inflammation which is probably COVID-19, but even with very-obviously-not-regular-flu symptoms don't figure in my country's stats because tests are reserved for those requiring hospitalisation)

Even if it was actually the case that nearly everyone in Italy had it in which case the casualty rates would be much lower than current estimates, the proportion of cases needing ventilators is sufficiently high to overload Italy's healthcare system (so the risk is similar, we're just looking at different risk factors i.e. the disease being less deadly but much more efficient at spreading than current estimates). Knowing that would make it easier to shift from containment to building more ventilators as a strategy, I guess

To be fair to them they do comment that this is unproven and it may not be viable. I can't see that a 6mth lockdown will work either though.

I guess that what will happen will be a muddle - increase healthcare surge capacity, infection control with new tech (phones and reporting), better testing and tracing - and use of limited amounts of vaccine when it becomes available... even 10k shots would make a difference I suppose.

I don't brush my teeth because other people word.

I'm doing it for the feeling of freshness and believe it's good for me because of what I believe to know from science and personal expeirience about existence and influence of microorganisms.

I try to avoid putting qtips in my ears even though people are doing it because science says that it has higher probability of doing harm than good.

> Other people can also say the craziest things and pass it off as science.

That doesn't make it science and you should base your decisions on science not things passed as science. You should use your critical faculties and knowledge of scientific process to tell what science is and what is not.

You definitely should verify every single thing that informs your decision proces if the decision you are about to make is an important one.

> ... Sometimes those heuristics lead people to do something different that ends up being the better way to do things than what science at the time entails.

Science offers heuristics to guide your decision process. If scientific heuristic exists and you are using your own instead, you are doing wrong (even if by chance it ends up well).

If there's no scientific heuristic for given problem ( you need to check! ) then by all means make up your own. You won't be wrong unless you make "let's ignore what science established" a part of your heuristic.

You'd be amazed how much of the things you consider instincts filling gaps in science was actually researched for very practical fields. A lot. When money is on the line people suddenly get very interested in actual reality and they do the research. Some of those instincts get confirmed, some get thoroughly debunked. There was no knowledge untill science properly investigated it. Just self propagating ideas, right or wrong.
The low energy availability of people in the third-world means they don’t have nearly the same level of access to safe food sources, safe shelter, and healthcare. This means they suffer and die in horrible numbers compared to the rich.

1. I don't see how this would "demise" industries long term. Maybe flight and travel will take a hit? Big whoop, maybe they should have had a contingency plan for stuff like this? Travel is kind of to blame for this epidemic, so its only fair that these companies gets a dose of karma. There is something wrong in this world when people can only get a sense of fulfillment if they travel all over the world, its just a decadent, polluting form of escapism.

2. Im sure this won't stop global warming long term, humanity will be back to being good little wage slave consumers in no time.

3. Your reasoning is build on fallacies. Not only 85 year olds are affected by this outbreak of SARS. Even healthy young adults can get ARDS like conditions that will seriously affect quality of life and age.

> how does the choice of live mixing console vs audio interface affect production?

1) A mixer "mixes" multiple inputs down to one output. An audio interface maintains separate channels.

2) Prosumer mixers don't have MIDI-in. That's often ok for just guitar or vocals, but add a couple of synths and the routing gets complicated fast. Hope your computer has lots of USB ports!

3) The dedicated audio interfaces have adequate DACs, no idea about the prosumer mixers.

Most people doing recording want to keep the channels separate and mix in their DAW, so they don't use mixers for recording.

In this case with the AG03, there's only one or two channels, so he's really just using the pre-amp feature in isolation.

So technically he's using the wrong device, but the AG03 is so limited it doesn't matter. :)

I have a Yamaha MG10XU 10-channel mixer, and I wouldn't use it for recording since the 10 input channels get merged into 1 stereo output channel, so there's no way to individually adjust gain or effects in the DAW, only using the physical knobs. I always use my Focusrites, Steinbergs or synth interfaces for recording.

I wouldn't want them to care about missinfo to be honest and see this road as a mistake. Education should provide answers, for why reddit cannot be a place for medical or any relevant information. And I don't think there are many users that treat it that way.

I am opposed to the view of some moderators want to paint the site as something different than it is. Reddit consists of user generated content. Users have a right to be wrong. And it is not a place for moderators to distribute their opinions or any official information.
You'd be surprised how many fake news artist and disinformation agents have pleasantly designed websites. The problem isn't so much that anyone can post something on Reddit, and people believe it as fact. It is that they read it on Reddit, then their browser history curates their recommended videos on YouTube to validate what they read using real people who make money off these ideas, then they send money to their Patreon to get the exclusive information which includes access to a nice looking website.

The Western official media was strongly denouncing the Chinese authorities when they were doing similar things a month or so ago in Hubei. Following that same logic I guess cancer is not the number one killer in the world, it's either the respiratory failure caused by that cancer or the related infections. But this is just Western hubris in play, as in "our numbers can never be wrong, reality be damned", and I say that as a guy from the Western "side".
Pandemic Apps – A list of free apps to help with Remote Work during this Crisis
The point GP was trying to make, if I understood it correctly, is that large policy changes have social costs you need to factor in even if you're going to do them anyway.

If a government doesn't keep that in mind it may bite them back somehow (see the beginning - as opposed to the follow-up - of the "gilets jaunes" movement in France).
> The reason it wasn't escalated sooner is that through January China was still withholding and delaying the release of data.

The reason doesn't matter (especially when it's waiting for China's trafficked data), the institution knew about the very likelihood of pandemia and still denied it for longer than needed. That allowed various national governments to hide their own lack of counter-measures behind a "reputable" source. And finally the media gave voice (at least in France) to a lot of "experts" that implanted a false sense of security in people's mind. Fake news all the way down, and people are now paying the price for it.
When it comes to these estimates, the WHO seem to be really bad at their job.

But the reality now is that no matter what the estimated CFR is, Covid-19 guarantees that without containment there will be significantly more people in need of hospital care than there will be beds and support staff. And that will affect the final mortality rate, and push it higher than a normal flu season.
I don't get why they don't close airports for all but cargo traffic. That way they could close off all terminals, probably saving ~90% of personnel. With cargo only, just warehouses and a minimum of security and air traffic control would have to be on site. Keeping terminals staffed when people aren't supposed to travel anyway doesn't seem logical.
