Yes, but everyone else in the space sector has missed by a bigger margin.

How’s the Bush Mars mission coming along? Bush senior that is, initiative announced 1989.

You mean the rockets which are half the cost of any other provider including both government and private launch agencies?

Or do you mean the car company which turned electric cars from a hippy fantasy into a rich person fantasy and just made its millionth vehicle?
Maybe, maybe not, but I definitely wouldn't change gloves every five minutes. Squirting some hand sanitizer after every client in retail doesn't seem as onerous. And definitely if my nose itches, I would rather squirt some hand sanitizer, clean my hands, and scratch it; rather than take off my gloves, scratch my nose, than put on new gloves.
OP is right about CodeReady - I’ll unhesitatingly say it’s a pos. It’s way too heavyweight for even a high end laptop. It’s single node only. It’s falls over if you enable monitoring unless you can give it 8 cores and 12GB, then it sort of works but is too slow. The 3 times I tried deploying the provided samples - they didn’t work out of box. It also requires you to download new release every month I think - no in place updates I think.
What do you mean by this? I see they offer 10 workspaces for free [1], isn't that pretty good? What are they limiting/paywalling that you'd consider 'essential'?

Indeed. And when something like Corona hits, and the mass of poor people get sick all at the same time, then the boat stops moving.

We are observing the early stages of a correction in the way of life, and I daresay the near/medium term future will be quite different than things have been for the previous 40 yeras.
Ebola is different: It does not spread over air like the Corona virus.

The Ebola virus " spreads to people initially through direct contact with the blood, body fluids and tissues of animals. Ebola virus then spreads to other people through direct contact with body fluids of a person who is sick with or has died from EVD". [0]

Anybody who's dependent on their employers' paycheck is dependent on their employer for survival. How is dependence on the government any more dangerous than being dependent on a corporation?

We already have UBI, but only old people can qualify for it, and the dividend amount is proportional to how much money you made in your lifetime. It's called social security.

Extending this dividend to the rest of the population is the next logical extension of this.

I call it "Actionable". Here are the settings:

* Don't use project hierarchy
* Group and sort actions by: Project
* Filter by availability: Available
* Filter contexts: Remaining

I think the key one is to only show Available actions, since OmniFocus already supports dependencies for the most part (nesting actions).

Also note all my projects are parallel, not sequential.

In that interview it does seem that there’s spare capacity and that the CEO simply doesn’t wish to be burned by misreading the market as happened before in company history. The CEO goes on to note that he has warned the national government many times, and that an urgency on their part is no emergency for him.

So increasing taxes to pay politicians and their cronies who have been making those very decisions is the solution?

Wait, wait even better - making everything more expensive for everyone is going to somehow disproportionately benefit those who have less over those who have more? I've little doubt the absurdity of taxing ourselves to prosperity certainly sounds perfectly reasonable to people who stand to benefit from it, along with their parasitic electorate.

This is why climate change quackery keeps falling short - it's statist propaganda brought to you for the same people who created all current imbalance by the people aspiring to be their next crony beneficiaries

It's hard to see how you can focus on security _and_ implement something as a kernel module.

A kernel module give it the highest amount of privileges it can have. Meanwhile, we all know of the "principle of least privilege". Not to mention any potential bugs can kill the entire system.

While a kernel module may have some performance gains, I'm sceptical about the trade-offs here. And I definitely don't think "VPN" falls into what we usually think a kernel should be responsible for.

Neato has been doing localization/mapping based vacuum since earlier, so they're obviously more sophisticated. But anecdotally with the state of the floor as the metric, 622 seems to do better than XV-11 despite being horribly dumb.

They will still accept money to show ads for vitamins and other useless "supplements" I'm sure fake news will remain okay if you pay them to spread it.
If the current strategy of making telecommuting the default takes hold post corvid-19 the governments of the industrialized world is going to be forced to treat internet the same way it treats other core infrastructure like roads or railways which means that nationalization will happen if the industry fail to deliver high speed and low prices to the undeserved rural areas.
Not GP, but I think there’s a reasonable argument that taxing income for the purpose of funding essential government services is on stronger ethical footing than taxing wealth for the specific purpose of wealth redistribution.

The latter is IMO not ethical if it excessively punishes productive activity. In this case “impractical is unethical”, even as I’d prefer a UBI world in many ways.
Only 2 Ebola outbreaks have had more than 1000 infected people.

This thing is in the early stages still and there are already 7x more recorded cases than the largest Ebola outbreak.
In multiple cases the official information is (or was) definite lies, and you need to look unofficial rumors to estimate the truth.

Multiple regimes have intentionally manipulated facts during this crisis for political reasons. What is the cost of lies?
Yes, the situation on the video is accurate from when it was filmed. Just that the situation is also rapidly loosening up and variable from place to place. Also it was much more strict a couple of weeks ago. I think people want to return to normality as quickly as possible. I've seen a few people walking around in their living areas with no masks now.

One update would be that some deliveries (possibly postal or parcels) are able to come into the living areas - but again this is just this week. Some other delivery companies are not allowed in just yet though.

Tracking the coronavirus crisis in Europe using real-time economic data
Well ... kind of.

Stalin fleeced the Kuleks to pay for Americans to build factories just before WW2, after Ford's River Rouge industrial city was completed.

He did a good job on T-34 production, but around half of Soviet armaments came from the USA during WW2. The tanks were directly driven to the front - no parking lot needed! :)

Stalin is portayed as a monster because he was. But he was also the great leader his country needed at that time.
Sadly this won't work. Unfortunately, the capitalist system is very opportunistic and "[my country] first!" initiatives would quickly out-compete countries and trade blocks that heavily tax consumption or production in that way.

Just look at Norway, my personal go-to example for that kind of taxation. The country has an absurdly high "luxury"-tax on cars (up to 100% all costs combined). The only reason they can do that, though, is the complete lack of a domestic automotive industry. The high taxation simply doesn't affect their national economy in the slightest. Countries like Sweden, the Czech Republic,or especially France and Germany couldn't do that - they have a substantial automotive industry.

What unfair competition can do could be observed in Europe in the 1970s and the 2000s. In the 1970s, pretty much the entire textile industry moved to South East Asia due to absurdly low costs compared to Europe (one could name it outright slavery). In the 2000s, the Chinese government did the same to Germany's solar industry by undercutting prices using substantial government subsidies.

Proper taxation of goods depending on environmental impact would be able to fundamentally change the economy from focus on consumerism to a more sustainable and cyclic economy. But it only takes a few market actors that don't participate to render the scheme unsustainable overall... And the recent trend towards autocratic "alpha males" in global politics (from the White House, to the Kremlin, to the Bosporus, and South America) paired with increasing nationalism worldwide doesn't make me hopeful for the near future.

I heard a radio program about the life of a UK (I think) surgeon who worked in war zones and crisis regions like Syria, and one thing he found in a hospital was an intensive care unit staffed mostly by Skype cameras to a hospital in Washington, so the very few nurses on site could be directed to the patients most in need, and the remote nurses could watch the vital signs of many patients without having to spend time walking around.

If that was long enough ago to become part of a biography, it must be even more possible these days to get cameras and connectivity to remote hospitals anywhere on Earth with spare capacity of nurses.

I don't think a paper about SARS-CoV-2 and temperature has been written yet (that I've seen), but people are hoping it reacts like SARS-CoV. See here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22312351

Makers Spaces to fight Covid-19
Hey all,

I represent an organization that tries to put forward social innovations for improved citizens engagements (www.i4policy.org).

Given the COVID outbreak we decided to halt our normal operations and try contribute to figth this emergency.

We have contacts with innovation hubs and makers spaces across Africa.

I am writing here to crowdsource ideas on how these spaces could be leveraged to build simple and scalable DYI solutions that can be employed in poor and overcrowded areas, where it's soon going to be nasty.

My questions are:

1. What do you think is going to be needed the most (e.g. Sanitizers, ventilators, masks, stretchers, communication devices, etc. )

2. How can we build these leveraging makers spaces and possibly using scraps or overthecounter materials?

3. any other contributions on this (existing projects, ideas for partnerships, risks associates with this approach)

Looking forward to your ideas!

ksh itself was pretty powerful, and some of its programming features still haven't found their way into bash or zsh.

But yeah, the API is a rather direct translation of the somewhat verbose Intrinsics/Motif interface. Compare that to its contemporary Tcl/Tk.
The consequences of not responding proactively to the environmental crisis is orders of magnitude more serious than the pandemic. I can't think of anything more regressive than willfully destroying the planet.
I'll be amazed if things are permitted to return to normal afterwards. Environmentalists will scream the place down to make our vastly diminished lifestyles a permanent fixture.
The rich don’t have robotic AI slaves yet, and so of course it’s the poor who cut or raze down forests and jungles; they simply don’t have the political power to nom the majority of their fruits.
They wore medical grade mask in the first place. Hygiene and cautious about it. They stopped and block visits from China ( or any where else with COVID ) very early on. Instead of acting everything is going to be great despite all the warnings, they were mindful and kept social gathering to minimal. ( Comparatively speaking ). Citizens were also proactively reporting if they were having symptoms, and government are testing every case as well as tracing where they have been and issue warning.

Medical Mask also meant even though the case broke out in a city with very high population density, the spread is far lower ( again comparatively speaking ).
The Ultimate Gaming Bed and More
There is nothing inflationary about UBI. It's interesting how people think the onus is on UBI proponents to justify why their policy wouldn't cause inflation. Even if it did cause inflation, ultimately it's just a redistribution of wealth, and it still helps those most at the bottom.

You mention Venezuela which is a totally different scenario. They had an economy overly dependent on imports paid for by the revenue from oil exports, so when the price of oil crashed, so did their economy along with it. With resulting large amounts of foreign denominated debt, their only options were to 1. default 2. print money to pay off those foreign-denominated debts. They went with option #2, and their currency collapsed. Furthermore their country has extremely weak property rights (eg. businesses being seized by the government), enormously high levels of corruption, and ridiculous price controls.

Now what does any of that have to do with UBI?
Yeah, you're not the first to notice that. It is very apparent when you search on YouTube for a politicians name and especially if that politician has been involved in a scandal. For American politicians, American mainstream media outlets such as Washington Post, CBS, ABC, Fox News and CNN dominate the search results on the first few pages. Same thing with other countries politicians so for British politicians you get videos from BBC, The Telegraph, The Guardian and so on. This happens even as those videos are not the most watched, most highly rated or most recent.

Independent media outlets that live on YouTube's advertising revenue are completely furious about it but powerless to do anything about it.

I don't think it makes the public better informed either. The most powerful propaganda tool is not misinformation but misdirection. Positive news gets boosted and negative news gets suppressed. Essentially that is happening when YouTube boosts mainstream media. One actors view is boosted and all dissenting views are suppressed.
If its this, or triage, a bloody thump up should be sufficient. If the regulators dont like it, let them come down and out to review procedure.

Isn’t the point of the categorical exemptions to avoid it being regressive? I.e., it skews the tax toward those consuming non-essentials?

I agree that it may discourage consumption. It’s not clear to me that this is fundamentally a bad thing, at least in terms of conspicuous consumerism

> 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 you are not following the same logic. Mine was an honest question while you seem to pick a particular (mis)interpretation.

Complications of a particular illness are part of that illness. I'm talking about adding Coronavirus complications to already life threatening ones from other diseases. HIV/AIDS are considered the killers even if it's unrelated infections that cause the actual death.

Case in point, I was in the hospital when 2 patients with less that 1% chance of surviving (cancer, no immune system) contracted an antibiotic resistant bacteria. They both subsequently died and this was attributed to the cancer not the bacteria because it was pretty much a forgone conclusion that they would have died within days regardless.

So if someone with no immune system dies of Covid-19 can you reasonably say Coronavirus killed them? Or would any minor complication have done the same? If you have a heart attack while driving but it's the crash that actually kills you the cause of death is considered the heart attack.
For professionals, Kemper and the AX8 amp modellers. The Kemper has a huge community of professional users sharing their profiles.

There are also various plugins that emulate a single kind of amp, but they're not quite as convincing, or as popular.

flattening the curve also gives us more time to come up with a vaccine.
