Problem with pure CSS is that when you work in teams very quickly you start getting a lot of redundancy. People reinvent already existing styles, copy/paste code all around with just minor differences, color/padding/margins inconsistencies are introduced, you get dead classes that no one dares to delete, etc. The solution is usually to have one person define all the core styles for all components, and then you mandate the rest of team to re-use them as much as possible - which basically boils down to the same thing these frameworks provide, just someone else did a lot of that initial work for you. And if you don't want to use all those utility classes directly in the html, you can use components and @apply to group them into more semantic classes. Still you get the benefits of having ready made utility styles, and also of using the system that a lot of people is familiar with and can quickly onboard the project.

Global Recession: What Are Risks for Bitcoin and Miners
From the UK...

'As of 9am on 19 March 2020, 64,621 people have been tested in the UK, of which 61,352 were confirmed negative and 3,269 were confirmed positive. As of 1pm 144 patients in the UK who tested positive for coronavirus (COVID-19) have died.'

So that 5% positive and 0.2% death rate of those tested. Seems likely that they would only be testing the worst cases.

When I see data like this but see estimates in the news of 1-2 million deaths in the US it makes me shake my head.

Also, if they legally own one, chances are about 100% they aren’t allowed to carry it, loaded.

Even if they carry a loaded gun, they’re less likely to use it against the police than in the USA because punishments are less severe. In the extreme, three strikes laws (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-strikes_law) makes even petty thieves with a previous felony conviction more likely to use a gun.

The USA has found a local optimum where cops have reason to be afraid of a large fraction of the population and vice versa, and doesn’t seem to be able to find a way out of it.

No need for ublock, the dev console is called your memory, your network tab is now something the entire os can understand, and you can even opportunistically block specific network calls.

Obfuscated javascript running in the console is no better than random apps, and webasm is going to make that even more opaque.

You are talking about features that are only needed for websites and why an app doesnt have those features, when they were directly bolted on to deal with the huge amount of complexity we've already handled in the OS.
Russia and the US are so similar actually.

Sure, true. Mobile browsers also tend not to support all these features, so on mobile, I don't object to a native app.
Except that litigation is expensive, slow, and tiresome and he'll probably be subject to threats to his person, property, and family from dirty cops.
The problem with native apps is they only work on platforms the developer supports. Web apps occasionally have this problem too, but native apps always have that problem.
So few are available because they are hideously expensive.

I would strongly advocate for browsers to strengthen the UI prompt for notifications so pages can’t do it on load. In fact, Google is doing exactly that with Chrome and I think Firefox already has.

At my last job, I had a need for high bandwidth low latency messaging over UDP - we started out with raw C structs over a home built reliable UDP library. We ended up laying protobuf on top a year after because it was honestly a headache not having a serialization library as message types got more complex. It didn't end up causing enough slowdown to impact the run speed of the application (all serialization was done on the app thread rather than the very performance sensitive network thread) as we had other bottlenecks, and the developer workflow (and additional message validation) made it worth it. SBE looks neat, though, I didn't know about that one.

This is so funny. It kind of reminds me warnings about anticipated dangers of early trains:

Critics of early steam-spewing locomotives, for example, thought “that women’s bodies were not designed to go at 50 miles an hour,” and worried that “[female passengers’] uteruses would fly out of [their] bodies as they were accelerated to that speed”—which, for the record, they did and will not.

Italy has a much better healthcare system than the US, and they had about 500 people die today. The US is going to be really hit hard.

I've read some of the literature on modeling the outbreak. In 45 days, the US will have no ICU beds available, basically no emergency healthcare available as it will be completely overwhelmed, and anywhere from 1-10 million will die over the successive pandemic waves within the next 18-24 months. Vaccine/s, prophylaxes and treatment protocols, in large numbers, are essential.

One of the largest dangers will be the premature reopening and lifting of shelter orders because the virus will not magically go away, and then people will abandon sensible precautions and cause a new pandemic wave that will kill untold thousands. Complacency and irresponsibility will kill many people.

Also, the Spring Break kids and the governor in Florida are beyond ignorant, they're reckless, selfish and liabilities to everyone else. One coastal Florida county's health department wasn't testing ILI patients to avoid coronavirus statistics, and preventing doctors from testing patients.

This isn't something to underestimate, because to do so would gamble your and your family's lives. Furthermore, young people are by far the greatest spreaders and also at risk for developing critical symptoms.

A friend became a police officer (in Australia) a couple of years ago at the age of 35.

He quite quickly became distrusting of what people say and would adopt a negative analysis of situations. Why? - because for the majority of his shifts he has to deal with people who _are_ lying to him.

Lots of domestic violence calls, drug dealers, thefts, reckless driving, people with serious mental illness (danger to themselves and others). The perpetrators inevitably lie and often the victims are not telling the whole truth (to protect themselves from incrimination for something else or to exaggerate what happened).

Prior to joining he was a well rounded and very grounded person. As far as i can tell, he hasn't resisted the power-tripping trap but I can see some racial and socioeconomic stereotyping creeping in to his world view. It's sad to see but it shouldn't be surprising that people's jobs strongly shape their world view. Some other examples I've encountered personally:

- emergency medical workers strongly against motorcycle riding as they see so many horrific injuries and fatalities from accidents
- a child services worker who assumed men interacting with children were pedophiles as her work involved re-homing children who had been abused

For the above occupations, the work involved exposes the workers to highly charged/traumatic situations often daily. A good place to start looking for a solution would be how to help these workers regain a balanced view of society.
From what I can tell this "Emergency Assistance Foundation Inc." manages programs like this for other companies. They seem to be legit but I don't know anything about them.

There's still a lot of UV that comes in through the cloud layer. It's one of the reasons it's recommended to wear sunglasses and sunscreen if you're hiking on snow on a cloudy day.

I don't have the right experience to give you a definite answer on this. All I can say is that my doctor had me reduce my dosage, which was 5K IU daily, because my levels were starting to get too high. So it's easy for me to see how someone reading this article would decide to take 10-20K ICU a day and quickly get to levels a doctor would consider out of healthy range.

Your numbers are far off. The death rate (CFR) isn't based on the number of people tested, but of people infected. That's currently at 4.4% for the UK. The UK has roughly 68M citizens. If 5% get infected, that's 3.4m cases. Of those, (assuming the current CFR), 150K will die. Additionally, over 600K will require hospitalization for around 2 weeks. The NHS has been stripped of funding for decades, and is in no condition to handle that load.

Smartest comment so far in the thread. The issue of cloud egress has been known and worked at NASA for a decade now, and the article treats it like an OMG moment.

Historically, data have been stored and processed on-premise but NASA has been migrating data and processing to the cloud where it makes sense. For instance, it makes a lot of sense to burst out to the cloud for near-real-time processing during and just after natural disasters like earthquakes and forest fires.

The large missions they mention (SWOT, NISAR - big radars in Earth orbit) are drivers of the shift of more processing + data to the cloud, because they will generate an unprecedented amount of data. They are pathfinders. By percentage, very little of that data will ever egress - it's low-level and uncalibrated - so a cached strategy could be valuable.

Here are some slides giving background on the SWOT/NISAR data system. They are from 2017, so more has happened in the meantime, but they touch on some of these issues:

It is quite well established that Vitamin D supplementation is effective in resolving deficiency for otherwise healthy, non geriatric children and adults.

However, when it comes to other populations you would have to consult the literature or a doctor to determine the efficacy of supplementation.

Also, supplementation for non deficient individuals lacks long term evidence supportive of utility. Although many think it holds promise as an agent that reduces all cause mortality.

"According to the Imec team, the most significant achievement is that the module does not require a crystal-based oscillator. Such oscillators are commonly used to precisely stabilize the frequency of radio signals and network protocol timing, but the Imec researchers instead created an on-chip mechanism that, in effect, uses the wireless network to calibrate itself. The lack of an off-chip crystal device made it possible to achieve the extremely small form factor needed for an ingestible."

Makes you wonder how many people are in jail or have criminal records because of corrupt cops.

If a cop plants drugs/evidence on you, how do you fight the charge without video proof? Especially if another cop or the cop's partner backs up the "planter"?

People programmed to trust cops, so your word vs 2+ cops would mean nothing. You are entirely at the mercy of corrupt cops, corrupt prosecutors, corrupt system. Lets be honest here, most of us here would take the cops' side without the video proof.

Essentially, your best bet is to plead guilty to lesser charges. But your criminal record will be an albatross around your neck and ruin your life.
> The officers walk away with no punishment

This has too much media attention, I doubt they'll get away with no charges for long, but it might take them some time to get to the point of charging them.

Ideally this would stay in the news until such time as the officers responsible were permanently removed from the force. They should never be permitted to be cops again and they should spend a long time behind bars as well.
