Unfortunately until we get an antigen test, we will not know for sure. But there is no reason to believe at this point that it isn't anything other than a standard immune response.

This is an important question and it needs to be answered.

There needs to be systematic sampling of the whole population so the number of infected can be correctly measured and the policies should be based on that.

This is also what WHO is saying.
It's a form of insurance payment, wherein the insurer of last resort (the state) covers what private insurers don't because they can't.

No insurance policy covers war. This is pretty much like a war. It's uninsurable because it affects everyone.

Bailouts in 2020 are not gifts to the reckless rich like in 2008, they're like the Marshall plan.
OT but I wish we would stop refering to this as a once-in-a-century event. It appeared from a combo of coincidences that can reproduce very easily in the years and decades to come.

A lot of people are magnesium deficient too. Magnesium is known essential in over 300 enzyme pathways.
I was just thinking that this pandemic is freaking me out more then 9/11. I lived in California during 9/11, and while the event was certainly jarring, it didn't change my day to day behavior. At the moment I'm in Spain under quarantine, and it's not clear to me what will happen in a week or a month.

For me the most disruptive moment of my life was the 2008 financial crisis. I ended up homeless for a bit, and I was not prepared for that.
Let's face it. Microsoft is a business and at any point in the future it might change course if it has economic preasures to do so. It can only keep being "good" as long as it has a stream of money coming in that allows this to happen. So the important thing is how they make npm economically viable. They need to have a good business model. I can only imagine GitHub was economically viable when they bought it, hence they left it run indpendently since it provides a revenue stream.
I find these posts annoying that say we're anchored in past tech and we must be able to do better, but never suggest how.

Please make a suggestion or two.

Dr Raoult reports that after 6 days of treatment with Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine) only 25% were still carrying the virus. Without treatment, 80% were still carrying the virus after 6 days. This result should be published soon.
There is a paper that showed that the flu virus makes people more socialable.

It was done with students who took flu vaccine. They found people socialised more after they had the vaccine (and thus, were a little bit infected) compared to before.

A literature review looked at the study and came up with the negative explanation - that people felt more secure or relaxed after getting the vaccine as they felt safer. Or were more nervous about needles before.

Ancedote:

I think I have covid-19 and the days before symptoms I felt unusually anxious to get outside and amongst fellow humans. I'm usually an introvert and stay inside mostly so it was notable.

Suggestion:

Online interview people with symptoms now to collect data on peoples behaviour in the days before symptoms showed, when they were infected but not showing, compared to 2 weeks before.
That is pretty neat but it is nice to have a tool that had it built natively, rather than having to search through 30 different provider flags with Minikube. Hopefully there documentation has gotten better but I'd generally trust the innovation behind the Kind tool than the Minikube devs who are late to the game.

Ask HN: DIY Coronavirus Mask?
I'm a doctor in Tahiti. There is very few masks here in French Polynesia (in France also). In a few days I'll have to take care of patients infected with COVID, everyone is waiting this with some anxiety.

There is a lot of tutorials on the internet about "how to sew a mask", however there is little information about what you can do to make it really efficient (or... kind of)

Some people say that we should use polyester instead of cotton (it tends to be less wet with time) , and also to use vaccuum bags.

Hacker news is a community I love for its intelligence, inventivity and knowledge.

How can we sew a DIY hacker mask with everyday products ?

Thank you everyone. Take care
Where are you from? Where I live - I think I am even motivated to get sick leave. If I feel ill, I can get sick leave, with no time limits I am aware of [0], and as a reward I will get 80% [1] of my salary back for essentially doing nothing. IMHO it's a win/win. I will get well and be productive as soon as possible [2]. If it's a viral illness - my employer would be happy that I will not make dozens of other people ill.

[0] I have not read the law, but I have never heard of anyone reaching that limit. You can stay ill for months and still be compensated. Of course after some long time, you'll probably be moved from sick leave to some kind of disability program, which sucks, but we are not talking about disabilities.

[1] There's a cap for sick leave compensation, but unless you are earning _a lot_ it should be enough.

[2] Personal anecdata, but personally common cold takes couple of days of rest to go away, if I try to be tough and won't rest - it may take couple of weeks before I feel well again. Better couple of days of 0 productivity, than couple of weeks of work simulation.
They would also likely have been right in 2007, if it weren't for the CDS disaster. Same as LTCM in the 90s. Same with every crash -- they're right until something their models don't correctly model have a massive, outsized effect on things.

The swings, and combined with high leverage positions, can wipe out firms.
We all know that history, though, including the people who are trying to repeat it.
From the site:

> Fucking governments should institute Fucking price controls and ration Fucking masks

> That is a Fucking horrible idea. Price controls mean no Fucking incentive to make Fucking masks. They mean people will waste Fucking masks and no one will have Fucking masks. Take it from our experience in Hong Kong, rising prices mean supply will soon flood the market.

Oh, wow. So many wrong things here.

There's an assumption that there's extra idle manufacturing capacity in the factories producing masks. This is doubtful in the extreme, they're selling every single mask they can already.[1]

We've seen this with the depletion of stocks of toilet paper - manufacturers ramped up production within days. The mask shortages have been for weeks now, anyone with any ability to produce masks, is already doing so at full rate.

What about standing up new manufacturing facilities, or retooling other types of manufacturing facilities?
There's a huge amount of capital expenditure (let alone time) involved in such a thing. And this assumes that you can even obtain the equipment to do that manufacturing in a short period of time. I can't imagine there's a warehouse somewhere full of mask-manufacturing equipment.

There's no need for that capacity normally, so as soon as this pandemic is over, the need for that extra capacity will disappear.

Is there any medical expert who believes that this situation won't be resolved (one way or another) within a year?

All that we achieve with completely free-reign/uncontrolled market in this situation is to allow exploitation of the needy. As we saw with multiple cases over hand sanitiser, toilet paper and wipes.

> I suspect the true numbers are about 10x-50x the reported confirmed cases

I came to similar conclusion just looking at the openly available numbers: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries

If you compare the number of serious cases to the number of total cases for different countries you'll get a 10x difference. Norway tests more thoroughly then the other countries, so it has a huge number of active cases. But from those only ~2% serious. There may be different reasons for such a discrepancy but I tend to agree with your conclusion that we have a lot of asymptomatic cases around, higher then estimated R0 and lower then estimated fatality.
Unfortunately, these points are not exclusive.
I'm a great fan of kind, it's made my life so much easier for a couple of use cases.

1) I run a training course on container security. We moved from using straight kubeadm on the student's VMs to using kind clusters. the advantage here being we can customize different clusters for different scenarios by providing a kind config file on start-up. We can also have multiple clusters running on a single VM easily with no interferance between them.

2) when evaluating software or trying out a feature, it's really nice to be able to spin up a test cluster in < 2 minutes and try it out, then it's just "kind delete cluster" to get rid of it again.

when I compare it to other options (e.g. minikube, microk8s etc) it subjectively feels less "magic" to me, in that it's just one or more Docker containers, running kubeadm, so as long as you understand those two things, you can get a picture of what's going on.
One very common scenario where WireGuard fails - you have a WG persistent VPN enabled and you actually move into the network that has the VPN endpoint. The IP of WG endpoint changes from a public one to a local one.
> all those rules work only in an ideal situation.

If you cannot follow all the rules for PPE you increase, not decrease, your risk of infection.
Probably because they put in more effort.
You seem to be injecting opinions I don't hold into what I said.
Same here in Norway. Grocery stores are feeling pretty normal these days (didn't check for alcohol gel but toilet paper is bountiful).
It’s because fundamentally, when you get right down to it, we’re manipulating text files.

Text is a very dense way to represent logic and ideas.

This is not like legacy software that you can rewrite.

You can add a GUI based on ideas from the late 70s/80s if you like but you’re still unlikely to come up with a more succinct way to represent logic than can be held in a text file.

So it follows that small tools that deal directly with manipulating text will be useful as long as text is useful.
Nowhere in what I said have I defended similar feedback loops. They stink no matter what form they take, and two wrongs don't make a right.
What kind of masks are effective? The one I have seems weird, I just feel the water vapour touching my eyes when I exhale.
I guess the mask would block the sneeze/cough projectiles and small spits while talking but if I were sitting in the public transit the water vapour would float around.
> This analysis seems largely correct but for one thing, the author assumes that people who contract the virus will develop immunity that lasts long enough to bend the exponential growth curve as herd immunity develops.

I am not a medical professional, but I would have assumed that the body develops a immunity because otherwise why would they search for a vaccine?
Is this the same drug that was given to Harbert in Jule Verne's The Mysterious Island ?
Thing is, delivery drivers elsewhere actually do this by choice. UPS and FedEx drivers are paid for a set of deliveries. If they can do them quicker then they get the same money but for less time. In NYC finding a restroom can be a real pain and a waste of precious time. It’s far easier to urinate in a bottle on the truck and keep moving.

I imagine they eat while on the move too.

So I’m not quite sure this is the indignity you make it or to be.
> It's a problem everywhere. Sick leave is something you take when you have high fever or need surgery, not when you start coughing

Do you be any experience outside the USA? Your description doesn't fit my experience in the UK and Denmark, or my general understanding of the rest of Europe.

Europe will need to consider smaller changes — there are more gig economy workers than ever before, different countries have taken different approaches to closing schools etc — but I think the fundamentals are OK.
> What would you do in this situation?

Chuckle and move on. You cannot build a business on non-defensible stuff like website copy and introduction videos. Time spent worrying about this, or worse, fighting back, is wasted time and will only make things worse. As a startup you have more important things to worry about than this.

What makes you better than the competition? I assume it's the network you have built already? If it's your landing page copy, then you may be in trouble.

Though it's understandable that the people who created the content in the first place are upset about their work being stolen. I guess what they did was so good that others just wanted to use it :)
> Many hospitality industries are allowing coronavirus related exceptions to their cancellation and refund policies.

Mostly out of goodwill and fear of lawsuits, I think.

Smaller boutique hotels are probably less likely to allow coronavirus-related exceptions, because they're deprived of business as it is.
> Quinine is one of the most bitter substances in the world.

It is even used as the normalizing reference index for a common bitterness index, at least according to Wikipedia.[1]

> In capsule form it's not used much any more for malaria because the taste of the dust on the outside of the capsule made people throw up.

I would suspect that it is not used widely anymore for prophylaxis because there is chloroquine-resistant malaria parasites all over the (malarial) world.[2]

The sell coated capsules, which are't bitter; these have been around for a while [3]

It's a huge opportunity and I hope it'll become popular everywhere.

Like e.g. someone in my family has been noticing a rash on their hands recently and was getting worried. There's no way in hell I'll let them go visit a doctor now, and this kind of consultation is something perfectly suited for doing it over the Internet.
However, now hospitals have to contend with both the flu AND COVID-19

Masks are not effective unless you combine them with all the other PPE and have training in how to use them.

Without those masks increase your risk.

Don't wear masks.

Listen to literally all the medical advice telling you not to wear masks, unless you've been advised by people treating you to wear a mask. (eg one person in a family is infected and the family is self isolating).
Doesn't it bother you that the temperature rised first, the CO2 levela just followed it. To me if A happened after B, A could not be made responsible for B, i.e. rising CO2 levels for rising temperature levels.
Yes. I think the half-life is ~ 1-2 months
So automate away all the jobs? What are people supposed to do then?
I expect an interesting side effect of all this is a reassessment of our tolerance for the "usual" influenza death rate. It's shockingly high. Could we save thousands of lives a year by people stopping going to work when they're sick, not going to grocery store when they're sick, etc?

It seems you have done what you could. It's clear plagiarism and it should be called out.

But I don't think you should get too emotionally invested in it. Just keep doing what you're doing and use it to drive you into moving faster than them. I'd even try to be friends or proper rivals with them, as it means you can poach some of their staff (not the copywriters) if they fail.

>the implication behind that critique, that the poor should rather be kept poor until...

I think it's more that UBI will result in at best a brief reprieve from poverty. It won't be a long-term or even medium-term solution as it only treats the symptom, not the cause.

While I can celebrate anyone promising/implementing welfare programs such as UBI and the huge social benefits they bring, I am cautious of how these will play out politically.

>both sides seem perfectly happy to consider the lower classes as sheep when it serves their purpose

Just want to throw out that I disagree with this
What would reliance look like? People need a stable minimum amount to survive? Isn't that already the case for many? Isn't that the point of so many entitlement programs? Isn't that the reason for proposing UBI?

This is incredibly nebulous. All decisions involve tradeoffs. One or two people die because of a decision to go with one car brake over the more expensive? If "increasing greenhouse gases" significant harm? Good luck ever trying to make anything - there will be a non stop line of people trying to sue the executives of any company they don't like.
You might want to double check with Airbnb because they have put in place a special policy related to covid-19. I am airbnb host, we had someone scheduled for next week. They cancelled and they got a full refund including the airbnb service fees, even though we are normally on strict cancellation policy (50%). They also changed the way cancellations work from the host side, we can cancel without penalty and without loosing superhost status.
> dry eyes

Also no confirmed case here, but I attended a conference and later got an email that one participant tested positive. Since a few days, I also have dry eyes (thought it was because of dry heating air in our apartment first, but it didn't go away for days as it normally does, not even yesterday when we did not had the heating on because of the warm weather), dry cough and I am a little tired. 2 days ago I had an aching sore throat starting in the evening, but it went away during the night and after several very strong cups of fresh hot ginger tea. Also a runny nose. Yesterday I decided to work from home, my wife also couldn't go to work because she also developed a strong dry cough Sunday evening and she decided to better stay at home. Felt a bit tired while working yesterday (and also a bit confused), so my wife suggested I might also have a light fever, but I didn't take any measurement because I really felt fine. She herself had intermittent fever the whole day yesterday, going up to 38.7 degrees Celsius (101.7 Fahrenheit), so nothing really serious and she felt fine otherwise. Our 12 month old daughter woke us up several times two nights ago with an extremely scary cough, but it didn't seemed to bother her and she continued sleeping. Yesterday morning, though, she looked quite unhappy, was still extremely tired and then basically slept for the whole day, from the morning to the late afternoon. When she woke up, she was completely happy again, no fever, no cough.

I have no idea if we have the virus, but after reading some comments here, I think there is at least a possibility. So far it was really just a nuisance, any cold I had in the last years was much, much worse. Without the media coverage, I would've just shrugged it of and continued to go to work.

I have in-laws in Nigeria. We just tipped them off a couple of days ago that now might be a good time to buy some Chloroquine and keep at the house, in case the situation gets worse. This is a commonly known medicine down there, that you can get from pharmacies without prescription.

But based on what we're seeing so far, it seems plausible that this virus prefers cooler northern climates. So hopefully it will turn out to be an unnecessary precaution.
Besides security issues, scooter services have another big issue. They don't care about their customers.

I drove few times on a bird, and enjoyed the experience. Few months ago (right before the winter) they've changed the wheels to plastic wheels since many birds had a flat tire which cost the company a lot I believe.

The plastic wheel is likely to slide when you try to brake when the ground is wet.

Doing a move like this right before the winter starts showed me how money oriented bird is
Heck, almost everything anybody does related to the economic sphere is wealth (re)distribution.

Property rights are wealth redistribution away from the commons and towards a relatively small number of individuals. Does that make them bad? Well, I'd say maybe, it depends on the details...

We need to work against the effectiveness of this rhetoric trick where only some things are labelled "redistribution" to show them in a negative light.
If you delay, the only thing that happens is you need to resort to drastic measures for longer, more people die, and more economic damage happens.

The trick is to manage the economic implications. The government can hire those people, pay people to stay home, or whatever else. It will lead to inflation, but that's better than a million deaths.
