Just to clarify, by "high fidelity" I mean way beyond "if I click here, show this Artboard". I think we need much more powerful metaphors to define behavior as we move from prototype -> high fidelity prototype -> final, shipping software in production.
Same here. A year ago I got myself a X230 as a second laptop, and installed OpenBSD to it, testing NsCDE and the original CDE only to settle down to another installation of i3. It's a great laptop and OpenBSD is perfect for my use. I cannot live without i3 or sway though...

To answer your earlier comment, even if the cases dropped, are you arguing that we implement authoritarianism just because it's more convenient in this case? Classic "trains run on time" argument. Of course it offers some benefits, but the losses are far greater.
Yes, so you agree, masks hinder transmission by, in your understanding as presented, decreasing the ability of sick people to infect healthy people. That is, masks reduce transmission.
Attention to all Pale Moon users – possible bad news
Who knows the Palemoon team realizes pretty fast that when the developer is writing something like that here - https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=24004

that it has the meaning that they can't move forward or have serious issues in attempting to do so. Google-Web-components... The next BIG thing in web development which is used in Youtube and other big pages will be most likely Palemoons undoing. Without it - no more videos on Youtube! Media and business sites are no longer loaded and can't be used properly, buttons can't be pressed anymore so pages are partly or fully broken! This is what more and more pages adopt, as it is the NEXT BIG THING! The Palemoon team failed in the past to implement highly complex features and the only solution so far was in the end to adopt fresh engines from Mozilla on a regular base, something which is NO LONGER POSSIBLE as future Firefox engines have not the features the Palemoon team sees as vital! Get slowly ready to start the search for a new browser to which you can switch in the near future - the best and most logical time in doing so is NOW!

Additionally - regarding this whole topic: https://freenode.logbot.info/binaryoutcast/20200314

WHY it most likely will die... While we all should be grateful for Gaming4JC and his attempts to bring over some code lately - Google Web components is TOO BIG - Seamonkey guys don't have it inside their new new 2.53 - which is based on Firefox 56. Waterfox - using the same code - also has issues. And if it is already problematic with Firefox 56 based code... how big is the chance to succeed with Firefox 52 based code? With the help of only one skilled guy? My suggestion is try as much as other possible browsers now to make the switch when it is forced on you as less annoying as possible.

I don't know what Assange is experiencing. I haven't been paying attention. But I have heard from numerous criminal defense attorneys that pre-trial solitary can be _considerably_ worse than prisons with the "hardcore criminals".

As a recent example, the infamous Michael Avenatti, a purely white collar criminal, was being held at MCC New York (a jail that's literally downtown. It's crazy. Look it up). This is where El Chapo was held and where Epstein killed himself. At one point his attorneys begged the judge for relief as he was sleeping without any blankets in about 30F temperature, always in solitary, not allowed to have materials or even legal documents.

I imagine conditions in the UK _could_ be similar but I hope to God they aren't.

Washington State is also an outlier in that one of the first places that got hit was a nursing home and they didn't react quickly enough; several of their residents died fairly quickly.

This is a health issue not because of the disease being too deadly but by being a perfect combination of not being deadly enough and requiring intensive and long care for those affected by a severe case. This is not about you dying of COVID-19, it's about you dying because you got into an accident and didn't have enough ICU beds available to treat an injury you shouldn't die from. It's about avoiding crumbling to the pressure of the healthcare system which would trigger even bigger panics, even more social unrest and so on.

Thanks very much for the feedback. To respond:

- Is this in the list view or the graph view? I did originally have the list order reversed (i.e. root node at the bottom), but I found it very confusing. I could potentially add a setting to control the order.

- I've tried to avoid deleting nodes where possible. If you delete a parent node, its children will be automatically re-arranged rather than deleted. Could you re-name the root node instead of deleting it?

- Agreed, the graph view is very basic at the moment. I'm looking to make it much more powerful in future.

- I've intentionally ignored recurring tasks for now, because I want to get them right when I do implement them. I'm aware it'd be a nice feature, so I am looking to add it asap.

- Good idea
> No dissection of existing approaches to programming language evangelisation; no analyses of successful approaches and lessons drawn from those with lesser success; no examination of the correlation between a programming language's long term succes and strong community-based evangelisation and/or support from a major, well-known player in the IT industry.

That was your expectation, not mine. You were led to believe one thing; I interpreted this article differently.

Sure, for some people, the title could be seen as clickbait. I didn't see it that way.

The author did present information, just not the information that you wanted. He pointed out that most language evangelization depends on technical publications and GitHub repos, and that this hasn't produced the desired outcome. That's practically axiomatic! Just look at where Clojure, Crystal, Elixir, F#, Haskell, Idris, Julia, Nim, Pony, and Ring are. They're still struggling for relevancy.

In the third paragraph, he states: "I’m a Smalltalk evangelist and Pharo is one of these languages." There's nothing dishonest here. He's presenting Pharo and the programming competition as a sample case study.

Once you dive into the linked article, you learn all you need to know about the competition.

UBI is fundamentally right, my biggest issue with this approach is that this is the last step before eliminating support for the poor altogether. No longer hampered by the intricacies of providing a service, it now becomes a debate over "how much do people need to survive? Why do we need this in the first place? This is redistribution!" This is a battle "the people" not only have lost typically, but failed to even take up an interest in defending for themselves.

You have that a little backwards. The positive predictive value in the discussion is for CT. rtPCR is being used as the definitive test but it lacks sensitivity so it has false negatives. The 59% rate for rtPCR positive suggests that they are missing cases that CT might catch. However, the CT findings are not “pathognomonic” meaning that other conditions can cause the appearance of viral pneumonia (such as influenza).

The U.K.’s Coronavirus ‘Herd Immunity’ Debacle.
https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/03/coronavir...
Having used various streaming apps (Netflix, Watchever, Apple TV, the media libraries of T-Online here in Germany and various libraries of local TV stations), I am surprised that the interface, usability and stability of my basic home entertainment center (Kodi running on an old Raspberry Pi 2) are still vastly superior.

I, too, would happily pay 50 EUR / month for ANY streaming service with a decent interface and a movie library that covers the 20th century. The easiest and cheapest (and mostly legal) way to watch classics for me is still to go to the public library (with an extensive DVD / BluRay collection), rent the movie, rip it and watch it via Kodi. This costs me 10 EUR a year.

That being said, what we need is a standardized way to stream movie and music content, and handle payments. This would include a standardized API to list available content with descriptions, images and prices. This would make it possible to use a private home entertainment system like Kodi efficiently and legally and would get rid of the need to use / install 100,000 different apps for each streaming service. It completely eludes why the current level of abstraction between the different providers is the app, the only explanations I can come up with is branding, a total lack of collaboration between the providers and copyright protection.

We have UBI in France "RSA" (€556 with no kids, €839 with one kid and €1000 with 2 kids and then €223 per extra kids), we also provide free lodging (logement sociaux) with free healthcare, transportation, electricity and more. We still have a huge amount of homeless people. I believe it is more of a mental issue for people who chose to remain on the street, at least in France but I know it's the case in the US too. Most sane people can find a job and a cheap room to survive. Those who don't usually have mental issues no UBI can solve. I don't know how this can be solved, maybe force people to go to mental institutions? Doesn't sound super glamorous either. The only countries that seem to have solved this problem are either super cold countries or countries where they jail them away.

The fact is we don’t have any facts.

Then there’s the fact that everyone replying to me are wielding the unknown as truths and pointing at China and Italy while at the same time disregarding literally the other 2 billion people in the area who haven’t had any of the average-to-worst case scenarios depicted by people like yourself.

I’d love to see what the infrastructure looks like in Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand and the like and why haven’t we seen the large scale run on hospitals like everyone’s talking about.

Happen to have any sources?
"Supportive care" is not something I or most people know how to offer. That's my point. What does supportive care consist of? For example, I know from reading the news that pronating ventilated patients is considered preferable. What else?

But really, I think this "home care in case the hospitals are full" thing is a pipe dream. A uniquely American pipe dream. For one thing, how are you going to hydrate and feed your loved one while they're on your homemade ventilator? Do you know how to insert an IV? Do you have saline solution on-hand? Ventilated patients in the hospital are being sedated, to my understanding. Do you have an anesthetist on hand to manage that? Etc. The American impulse to independence and prepping is so silly sometimes.

The only practical use for these ventilators is in a hospital context, employed by real doctors and nurses. And then only if the number of available ventilators ends up being the bottleneck (as opposed to the amount of healthcare worker labor available or some other factor). Any other imagined use is just a safety blanket, IMO.
Again, absolve the poor of all personal responsibility.

Thanks. Too bad Ansible playbooks are not public. To be clear I'm not defending Hashicorp, as I have played quite a bit with their tools (only opensource versions) and getting deployments production ready, can be painful, especially setting up security correctly, with so many moving parts.

I know about Helm chart for Vault (btw also created and maintained by Hashicorp). It's quite handy for quick deployments, but getting it to production will require changes, as most security things are disabled. All Helm chart does, it gets Vault up and running, unsealing has to be done either manually or via third party (cool thing, if your use-case allows storing such secret on third party HW). Not to mention, that if you want to use Consul as storage backend, you will have to deal with that using separate chart.

Without knowledge what Ansible playbook does, it's hard to compare the two. If ansible is configuring host OS from scratch (updates/tools installation etc) then yes, it might take much longer, then deploying to fully managed K8s cluster.

This isn't a police action to prevent dirty immigrants from getting across the border, it's a quarantine measure.

99% of those travelers aren't going to row across a lake to get into Canada; if they are chances are they're doing something sketchy and would have been rowing across lakes anyway regardless of the enforcement regime.

More importantly disease transmission is one of herds and numbers -- a tiny handful getting across isn't a huge deal, it's the influx coming through ports and via plane.

As that points out, not all loans where paid back. The interest from those that did result in a nominal profit, but it’s far from what private lenders received for loans in that time period.

Thus opportunity cost, as it was a poor investment which is why it was called a bailout.
Buybacks are a way for companies to let the market know they are no longer capable of making efficient use of capital, and so they give the money back to shareholders instead. The recent trend of buybacks within various industries presents a difficult argument against the efficacy of capitalism in general. It would seem companies no longer need tax cuts, can sustain higher minimum wages, have limited incentives to foster innovation through research and development, since buybacks have exceeded FCF since 2014. With the effectiveness of shareholders use of capital being fairly limited (something we were able to witness following the Trump administration's tax reforms), the only other viable option is to give a greater share to the government. If we're so concerned about Main Street pensioners and 401K shareholders when it comes to buybacks, then perhaps they'd prefer a fixed UBI paid by higher corporate taxes rather than be subject to the whims of the market (now especially). If that doesn't sound like a good idea, than maybe companies should do their job and actually spend the capital. As much as people argue against public entitlements, they seem to support the private entitlements fostered by buyback culture, if one doesn't seem productive, why does the other?

>The assumes financial excess. The reason for UBI is that there isn't excess. If 78% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, then that's not excess. If 63% of Americans can't afford an unexpected $500 bill, that's not excess.

But if the core problem is that everyone is bidding away all their financial slack on rent, then they will still take any such windfall and do the same with it, pushing themselves right back to the same (low) level of slack they have today.

Earlier advocates for poverty alleviation noted this effect early on. Winston Churchill told of a time when they got the tolls on a bridge removed, and then rents advanced by the cost of using the bridge twice a day.

I’m not commenting on the efficacy of DRM.

For movies and shows, to me it’s a speed bump to try and keep people who don’t really mean to steal, but would gladly copy the disk and give it to all their friends as a favor.

Gaming and software is also pretty similar, it’s a speed bump. Maybe keep you from casually copying the software onto everyone’s machine.

Denuvo showed the game industry DRM can buy you some freedom from piracy in the most critical sales period, even if only for a few days, but yeah it’s not infallible (and is sold with that caveat)

I actually feel like on commercial software part of it is it let’s the nail you with DCMA if you circumvent their DRM directly, but I’m not a lawyer and that’s just my musings...

The Diamond Princess cruise. They were a major cluster, and coincidentally got forced quarantined and turns out to be a natural test case.

Notice how we only focus on the bank run on US hospitals. Are hospitals in poorer countries immune to these type of sudden rushes? Why aren’t we seeing millions of people in neighboring countries to China clogging up hospitals?

Is it slightly possible this is just a tad over done? What would you say are the chances of that?
Kind of related problem... A major city becomes an outbreak hot spot. The city enacts strict quarantine recommendations but they are not enforced by law and domestic travel is still permitted. People then flee the hot spot city and rapidly spread disease to other areas. This was a mistake Italy made that the US is repeating in places like NY, San Francisco, etc.
