In some cases, this is just allowing providers to use the same software for telehealth, but now without paying extra for the edition that's certified as HIPAA compliant. Eg. Google's G Suite products don't function any differently if your organization signs a Business Associate Agreement with Google. So as long as healthcare providers are still careful, there doesn't have to be any weakening of privacy, just a reduction in red tape and a (temporary) destruction of the market for overpriced specialty telehealth software services.
Legal standards vary. In most of the USA, he probably could be shot.

In nearly all of the USA, he could be shot if he were in the victim's home. Most states do not have a duty to flee when in the home, and the attacker's continued presence is considered a threat. Only in Vermont and Washington, D.C. is there a duty to attempt to flee when in the home.

Outside the home, in most states he probably could be shot, at least if he weren't clearly departing. He can't just stay there being a threat. There is no duty for the victim to attempt to flee, even if outside the home.

An interesting case involves a purse snatcher in a Texas parking lot. A bystander pulled out a huge revolver with a laser sight, fired, and killed the purse snatcher to recover the purse. It was legal.
This is happening already - anyone who use Google map has their location data collected for the past 10 years with default setting. Police can issue geofencing warrant against the location/time and Google will share that data.

Not all masks are N95 people. It's crazy the amount of grandstanding and virtue signaling going on here. I have had a P100 mask for years with filters in stock, and I am wearing it out on town if I have to.

I can't say whether the work reported is defensible, but I can say that (1) chloroquine is not available over the counter in the US as it is in many places, (2) it can be dangerous, even fatal if misused, and (3) it is available in the US in pet stores for treating aquariums.

So, provided you only put it in the tank you swim in, you should be OK, but I don't know about the safety of chloroquine phosphate taken orally. Still, if you are on the down slide, it might be preferable to risk it, and also to have some on hand against such an event.

The opposite. In work-from-home situations, BS jobholders (which I generally define as managers with few actual skills other than managing) continually need to justify their existence, which they love to do via constant and excessive videochats with anyone and everyone. Meanwhile productive workers are more invisible than ever, lacking the random hallway, coffee machine, bathroom run-ins with top execs/mgmt.

People think this stuff doesn't matter, that they treat everyone fairly, but when the hard decisions about who to cut need to be made, that frequent visual reminder (along with all the tasks they insist they are managing, but which other people are actually doing) is a huge advantage in remaining employed.
This assumes that the US and Canada are homogeneous blobs, where closing a border is like pulling a piece of string across a small pond. Reducing any community transmission is good, which is why Italy closed off parts of their country as the spread got worse.
This counterargument isn't fatal to my point, though I tailored it to the parent comment (re: censors). There are people who can be more easily held accountable for their words, and people for whom it is difficult, or inappropriate, to punish for spouting false information. The responsible broadcaster amplifies the words of people that can be held accountable, and amplifies voices of people that cannot be held accountable only cautiously, and inside certain framed mindset (e.g. reported speech, call out lies, provide a contrasting perspective by a person who can be more easily be held accountable).

With respect to social media, it is clear that it is inappropriate and impossible to hold most laypeople accountable for spreading false information, and so it is responsible broadcasting to only amplify these voices to a limited extent.

I think that it is clear to you that I don't support unconditional free broadcast of factual claims in the Internet age, but one where one's reach must be matched by how much they have staked on the correctness of their information, proportional to the severity of the issue they are weighing in on.

~10K for an effective single-dose treatment is not that expensive. Admittedly this is a very crude calculation, but it's probably not too far off. Moreover, mAb production is a very mature technology, that can be scaled up by just growing more cells. I'm not saying we are close to getting this into the clinic, but it is a very interesting result.
I don't think that's a reasonable reading of the event. Ascribing good intentions to Westminster with regard to the famine is unjustified. Some wanted to help, others distinctly didn't. It would be beyond charitable to suggest that all their actions were designed to minimise Irish suffering.

but the N95 mask has to be disposed of.

In news footage of a drive through testing center, it appears that the nurse was wearing a surgical mask over her N95 respirator, and only discarded that surgical mask in between patients, not the whole N95 respirator.

She discarded her gloves too, they didn't show enough between-patient footage to show if she disposed of the blue (paper?) overcoat she wore over her scrubs between patients too.

I make bread all the time, I have never weighed out my water.
Anyways for those who don't know 1 gram of water equals 1 milliliter.
When it comes to the water flour ratio in bread making it's more of an estimate than exact measure, altitude,ambient humidity, flour type and age will all change the optimum ratio.
This recipe is a great starting point for beginners and learning to bake bread seems like a great stay at home activity it makes your home smell good too.
I suggest toasting your bread slices before eating if you are new to baking with yeast.
It might seem related, but your example doesnt discredit what above poster said.

This reminds me of a conversation I had at a New Year's party not too long ago - a gentleman I'd never met before and I got to talking, and in the process of getting to know one another (however much you can know someone after 4-5 drinks at a black tie party you go to once a year), he bemoaned the issues he was having trying to open a US branch of his company. Apparently medium scale sheet metal forming operations in the States have all but disappeared - everything is either outsourced to China, or is small scale, high precision work that can't meet demand of more than N hundred pieces a week. It's a boring issue - "oh no, there's no one to subcontract this work to, you have to buy from China for X percent of what it would cost to do here" - but speak volumes as to the loss of a critical component of that manufacturing ecosystem.

Best solution to this IMO is a special app which allows you to check in, prove your virus status (have it, had it, don't have it yet). Map of other users in the area so you know you're safe. You could then use that to check in to shops etc. and not be allowed in without showing status, those who have it have to stay home and check in for a given period. Uses biometrics to ensure a given user is using it.

Apple should be working on this.

After the virus is contained or has burned out everyone deletes the app. No feds snooping at location data required.

I am going to use recent personal experience to disagree with your conclusion that uninfected people in a house with someone who is infected cannot protect themselves and will end up sick.

This past December, in the week before Christmas, my wife had surgery that required an overnight stay. She was released with instructions to avoid laughing, coughing, no physical activity, etc. for several weeks. A couple days after she was home our son came down with an infection that turned into a deep, dry, raspy cough with sudden fever over 102*F. Since she needed to avoid any sort of infection and he was getting worse by the hour I took him to ER where he had a test for flu since people at his school had been down with it in the weeks prior.

The ER doctor told us it was a viral infection but the flu test was negative meaning that we either got there before there was enough viral material for a positive test or that it was something else causing it besides flu.

It became my job to keep his infection from spreading to my wife. To manage that I used sanitation instructions from my sister, a nurse, and I kept him isolated in his bedroom and my wife in our bedroom. I prepared all meals, etc. and cleaned the house, etc. I slept in a spare bedroom in case I was infected. I bought some cheap face masks, not hospital grade, just over-the-ear masks and made sure that she wore one every time she left her room and he wore one every time he left his room. I also wore one every time he left his room. Once he returned to his room I went along behind him and wiped every knob, switch, flat surface, etc that he could've contacted and put his used glasses and utensils in the dishwasher. Then I washed my own hands.

My son's fever broke after 4 days on Motrin and his cough went away too.

My wife never got sick and neither did I. We were all in the same house sharing the same air on days when the heater ran regularly due to a strong cold front.

No one wore a mask all the time. We wore them only when we had the opportunity to have contact with each other.

When the stories started breaking in China about this, I started following it all here on HN. I understood the challenges they would face having just faced similar challenges myself.

I found myself with part of a container of lysol wipes, a few cheap face masks that hadn't been used, some hand sanitizer for each bedroom, and the knowledge that one could beat something like this if they were diligent.

I realize that this is just my story but it is all true. Isolating the infected person, using PPE, sanitizing everything diligently can prevent everyone in the house from being infected if someone in your family does come down with an airborne infection.

My house is cluttered and disinfecting was potentially a chore but I made it easier by following each person along and watching carefully everything that they did while they were out "in public". Once they were isolated, I retraced their steps wiping everything down. I hope you don't have to share my experience but you can rest easier knowing that there is hope.

Hype will trample everything, marketing is just grabbing at its fur on the way by in hopes of being dragged along. This isn't like skateboard surfing a freeway; tho. Hype is a herd of rabid buffalo on PCP.

I was joking last month about "sealing ourselves into our apartments with plastic and duct tape" but it isn't funny when people are going to be advocating that later this week.

I'm "at risk" and keeping my daughter home from school this week even though they're staying open; the social panic is worrying me far more than the disease. People are ready to accept the unthinkable already and there's voices saying "data isn't important we have to act fast!" ... that could end badly.

Yeah, I've done work in iMovie and think it could be done without too much difficulty, so long as no animations are needed (which is not ideal, of course). Part of the reason for having slides big on the screen is that then you can have your face off-camera at times, in case you have to scratch your face or whatever. Being right in front of a high-res camera for 45 mins is not awesome...

This isn't the first time the topic of browser monoculture has been brought up. Why does it matter that it was Pale Moon that brought it up this time? If I or anyone else would have written the post instead of them, would then people focus on the issue instead of on who brought it up?

> It takes away from the point when it's untrue

What exactly are you saying is untrue? Can you quote the part?

There are comments[1] right in this same thread that confirm Pale Moon's statements about the inability to save or archive pages.

> Web Components is a standard. Multiple implementations exist.

Are you sure it's not Google that's controlling what's to become "standard" and Firefox that chases after them? And I say Firefox specifically, because, besides Safari, they seem to be the only other implementation on the market. Edge uses Chrome's engine. Indeed, with Chrome's 64% in market share[2], anything they do becomes "standard" automatically. With Firefox's 4.5%, I don't think they can do anything but chase after the Chrome guys to wherever they decide to take the web.

Isn't the point of a standard to help foster a rich ecosystem of diverse, interoperable implementations? I feel that a standard that evolves too fast (as made possible by an implementation monoculture) fails at fostering one.

This is what I believe Pale Moon is getting at when they say:

> The more additional "features" are tacked on to these components, the less likely it is for non-Google clients to be able to display sites in full or properly.

It gets harder and harder to make a new web engine from scratch. It's a step backwards from gaining a more diverse browser ecosystem.

The fact that Web Components specifically makes it harder to parse content (for archival or indexing purposes, etc.) is a separate issue, and for it, it doesn't matter if it's standard. In fact, it makes it worse.

> As long as the money is given to folks who need and/or will spend it, it feels like this is the exact situation where the federal government steps in for stimulus.

No, it's still a bad idea as stimulus.

It might or might not be the right idea from a humanitarian point of view. No opinion on that topic.

But if you care about nominal spending in the American economy, the Fed can do the job just fine. Just have them buy assets until total nominal spending (and thus also inflation) is up where you want it. Start with American government bonds, but if that's not enough, expand to other assets as well and keep buying.

You may ask: what if this doesn't work to raise spending nor inflation?

Well, that's the best case! Congratulations: that means the Fed just bought up all the assets in the world in return for some ink and paper. [0] And all that without devaluing the dollar, since we assumed no inflation would result.

Your negative example of people _not_ spending the money they are given turns into the best kind of person you want to be buying assets from, if you are the creator of said money.

Of course, in practice this will raise spending. Especially if you announce the policy in a clear and credible way, spending will increase almost immediately even before you implement anything. Markets are all about anticipating expected events.

No need to enlarge the government budget or the deficit.

Oh, and if you are looking for practical steps to raise spending in the economy and the above programme is too radical for you; then a simple first step is to eliminate positive interest rates on (excess) reserves that banks park at the Fed.

In the Fed's defense, they lowered the interest on excess reserves to 0.1%. But you can argue that they should lower it further, perhaps to -1%. Make banks pay to park money at the Fed, so that they prefer bringing that money into the real economy. Either by spending it themselves, or by lending it to people to spend it for them.

[0] To be more precise: in return for some even cheaper to create numbers in a computer. Nobody prints these sums of money any more.

Highly-automated, "clean" manufacturing is all well and good for billion-dollar highly-capitalized, politically-sheltered megafactories, but what about the other 90% of manufacturers?

Manufacturing is a dirty, dangerous, manual business. I think the small guys will tell you that environmental regulations killed manufacturing in the west, not labour costs. We've been living in lala land with it all offshore, out of sight. If US/EU-level environmental regulations got applied and enforced globally, we'd be sent back to the stone age. Not to mention the litigation risks, intellectual property risks, trade union cartels, needing to hire an electrician to change a lightbulb, etc. (All added up, it's hopelessly calcified, but whatever...)

Don't get me wrong - I really care about the environment - but most regs here are just to look good, not actually about stuff that matters. And pushing it into the third world, where they don't protect the environment at all, is counterproductive.

Thanks for sharing this! Can you simultaneously record your screen and your face, and then later splice the two together (while keeping audio synced, preferably)?

To clarify, basically the desire is to be able to sit in front of a computer, look through slides while talking to the camera, and then afterward go through and (easily) choose which segments should show the screen and which should show your face. And hopefully the audio would just auto-sync, so you don't have to fiddle with it to get the lips to line up when it's set to show your face.

Yes, the market cap of the company is lowered by the amount it spends on the buy back, however the value per share stays the same. A year later the profit from the new year is included in the market cap which is divided by a lowet number of shares. This means the value of a single share is now higher while the market cap is the same as in the beginning.
