Dell Latitude 7390: it's basically a better XPS13.

Same size, same small bazel, weighs meaybe 100g more, but has all of the ports you could need and ram, disk and battery are easily replaceable. Probably has better thermals too, since less compromises were done in head dissipation.

I can't really understand why people are buying the XPS13 when the Latitude 7390 is available (probably for less money).

<edit> the size is 13", basically the size of an A4 sheet of paper. My 7390 from work is equipped with an 8th gen i7 (4c8t) and 16gb ram and an nvme add, more than enough to do most things. Lower end models exist too of course.

I noticed that ginger and turmeric became totally unavailable in Ireland two weeks ago (which was when the government started telling people to work from home if possible and introducing restrictions). I suspect because people have been claiming (incorrectly) that they help with coronavirus. They're back now, but it really doesn't take much change in consumer behaviour to cause shortages.

I was not referring to any game in particular. Once you have a very good solution to a real problem, or a game that a few people think is really fun, it's no longer a design/engineering problem it's a selling/marketing problem.

When you have few users it's not the time to water it down to suit the general public, you should only do that once you have the ship in motion. eg. million of users.
A discourse vacuum was produced by lack of proper channels. I myself wouldn't have been so engaged in reading those papers and sifting through videos from obscure sources had I felt that the officials were not sleep at the wheel.

I'm still dumbfounded that China is let off the hook for delaying information a whole month, but even after declaring mass quarantines the west's officials took more than a month to take notice.
The army core of engineers would have to heavily modify them. We do have hospital ships. I am not sure it'd be possible though to get negative pressure in the HVAC.. maybe.
Kitty 0.17 – GPU-accelerated terminal emulator
I also deployed a Jitsi instance and was surprised how easy it was. I have two questions for you:

1. Do you see high CPU usage when there are multiple conferences with a few participants happening simultaneously?

2. How did you set up conference recording? I know Jibri exists but the installation instructions are quite confusing. It seems you need a VM per conference you want to record. Is that the case?

No it’s even easier and better than that. There is a built in Linux container internally called crostini, you just turn it on and it’s a fully featured Linux install with admin privileges and a terminal.

choosing what not to say isn't censorship. Censorship is when the someone with power forces you to refrain from saying something - not just in a particular forum, but in any effective way. This place tells you "if you want to spread certain ideas on the internet from the comfort of your chair, consider twitter or wordpress". Censorship is when the government tells you "if you want to to spread certain ideas on the internet from the comfort of your chair, please consider the gulag or child porn charges". The difference is stark.

Diluting words of meaning doesn't help maintain free speech. It helps destroy it. If we don't know what free speech is, we can't defend it.

(The fact that you can't post illegal content is a form of censorship. But that's not hackernews censoring you, it's the government. The fact that some content is illegal is literally the definition of censorship.)

Commands for Autonomous Vehicles Workshop
Dear Researchers,

We are happy to invite you to join the first ‘Commands for Autonomous Vehicles Workshop’ (C4AV). The topic of the workshop is multi-modal learning - language and vision - in a practical setting. Participants are invited to share their work as a poster or oral presentation during the workshop (see call for papers - https://c4av-2020.github.io/).

Additionally, we want to invite you to compete in the C4AV challenge. Given a natural language command that expresses an action that needs to be taken by an autonomous vehicle, participants need to develop a model that identifies the referred object in the scene. The challenge is based on the Talk2Car dataset (EMNLP 2019), which extends the nuScenes dataset for autonomous driving with a visual grounding task. Participants can, and are encouraged to make use of the full sensor suite of an autonomous vehicle to tackle the visual grounding task. Top performing teams can win prizes and will be invited to present their work at the C4AV workshop at ECCV2020.

For more information visit https://c4av-2020.github.io/ . We are looking forward to seeing you on the leaderboard.

If you'd like the lockdown. the 2020 MacBook Air is finally an Apple machine balancing it all for developers.

The Lenovo Carbon X1 is also a power machine.

Main advantage choosing non-Mac machine is ability to replace key components.
Most PCs even the slimmest, allow replacing at least the NVMe so you could get even 2TB for ~200$.

Smallest size you could go imho is 12".

Didn't his rule turn into an actual dictatorship only when growth was slowing down, his popularity was waning, and he had a close call in the democratic elections?

A couple of examples of successes that can only very debatably be attributed to dictatorship in itself don't make it inherently successful. Not more than China's successes prove that communism is successful and sustainable. Why are you ignoring the overwhelming majority of cases where dictatorship failed? Democracy had far more consistent and successful examples.

Using dictatorial-like power to escape a dire situation is not the same as successfully ruling a country. Dictatorship is like a slap. It's useful if you're chocking and need to get out of that pinch but treating all emergencies with a slap is a misguided approach.
> buying equity at a steep discount

the gov't "loans" should be the same as the amount of equity obtained. For example, if the book value of the company is $100 , and the debt is $80 (so they need a loan of $80 to cover their debts), then the bailout will dilute all existing shareholders 80%.
They had to take the "server" term from TeamSpeak and other similar software. That's what gamers call the communication spaces.

As a "libertarian type" well out on the left, I see the simple resolution to this that if you're prepared to risk the health of others, you're free to do that as long as you do it with other consenting adults apart from the rest of us, and expect not to be allowed contact with the rest of us until its safe.

Freedom for everyone also means freedom for people to band together and decide not to want anything to do with those who don't want to follow their rules.

Especially in this case, where the health risk arguably makes it aggression to try to force contact on others.

On a more personal note: "fearmongering" is preferred over loss of life here. We will never know if we did too much to prevent this. But we will definitely know if we did too little.

Obviously I'm not asking people to panic, in fact, the opposite. Calm, reasonable and responsible actions do not preclude worry and having a healthy amount of fear for you and your loved ones.
It seems fine now, but cough has returned, was getting worse but a really good deep sleep seems to have helped (5htp + zinc + phosphatidylserine + 1mg melatonin).

Isn't the average age on a cruise ship far older than in the general population? I would've thought the people on board would on average be far more vulnerable.

That's still one key short.
> The only reason why Taiwan has been so successful in battling Coronavirus is that there is national pride in acting as a whole and doing what's best for society

I disagree. There are idiots in Taiwan that can ruin it just like anywhere. One nightclubber violating quarantine was just fined the amount cited in this article ($30k USD).

Taiwan has been able to control the virus as a direct result of electing Tsai Ing-wen in January 2020. Her Vice President managed the SARS outbreak for Taiwan in 2002-2004, and since Taiwan was not allowed to participate in the WHO, they had to figure out for themselves how to deal with that outbreak. They are now better prepared.

Tsai Ing-wen's opposing candidate, Han Kuo-yu, wanted to unify with China. He appeared to have momentum from winning the mayoral election in Kaohsiung, which is the 2nd largest city in Taiwan. Prior to his win there in 2018, Kaohsiung had always had a DPP mayor, DPP having been founded by people who fought for an end to martial law and the beginning of elections.

In fact, the elections in Taiwan were on January 11 and may have played a role in China's delay in notifying the world community about the outbreak. The doctor who wanted to share the news (and has since died due to contracting the virus) was detained on January 1st, and China did not announce the outbreak until January 20th.

Chinese-backed media was pushing Han Kuo-yu very hard during this election, spreading lots of fake news, and it was not clear whether or not he would pull an out-of-nowhere win like the other right-wing nuts who've been elected all over the world. Had he been elected, things would be different. I doubt he would have shut down flights to China. Fortunately, the Taiwanese people gave Tsai Ing-wen the biggest margin of victory Taiwan has ever seen in a presidential election.
as I said, seldomly, but I did have to spend several days recently looking over webpack output to figure out what was wrong.

Also I remember one time in a previous consulting job a developer who was not very good had used an instruction to not show something if env was prod, but forgotten to end if, which caused module compilations using the horrendous babel/gulp setup to break in the middle of one module but finally start working again in another one, meaning that there were parts of the applications that were trying to refer to a module # 31 or something like that which was no longer present in the big object that was put out of compiled modules. (this is like 3-4 years ago now)

Since it was not showing something if env was prod, if env was dev no problem.

That meant I had to take the output of the prod build and walk through comparing with dev build to figure out what modules were not compiled in, and then figure out from that were the likely error was and then looking in those places with git blame to say what was done wrong.
In the solo category, I've heard that the Lord of the Ring card game is fun, but it might just be the licence appeal (I haven't played it yet).
OpenPandora, the Pyra would be better but not readily available immediately. Fit in pocket easily, keys might be a tad too small for you?
Another pocket sized device is GPD Win, which I believe you can install Linux onto the first version.
Just some options, leaning more on the small form factor side/.
They have to show up at work by law, but there are unscrupulous people making a lot of money with shady nursing homes that simply have shown their lack of any human decency with this.

I'm pretty sure they'll get their due retribution, people are aghast at this criminal behaviour here.

Absolutely, the opposing candidate was very pro-unification with China. With Tsai they got sensibility and a former health minister as VP.
or redirect cat to /dev/null and see how fast that is
bankruptcy does mean the people who worked there would lose their jobs. They will have to be re-employed, if the new buyer of the assets sold to cover the debts, decides to continue running a cruise liner. This certainly takes some time, and in the interim, all the employees will be fired (or at least, not paid).

If the gov't bails out the cruise liners, they may be able to force them to continue paying the employees in the intrim, and so "save" them from being unemployed and "save" welfare. The gov't can also end up owning equity in the business (which is not a bad thing - it's basically extra income for the state/treasury in the future).
I confess to have really enjoyed his books. At the beginning of Homo Deus, he starts precisely comparing how pandemic illnesses were treated today Vs 100 years ago.
Now that I'm confined at home and everything looks grey to me, I still can compare against Spanish influenza and see the differences.
Take a look into a few chromebooks. The models with crostini have a full built in Linux dev environment complete with a terminal and the ability to run standard Linux apps like vscode. The pixelbook go had my favorite keyboard and is a nice size. You might like that! The discontinued slate is really nice too.
Personally I think 640 sheets is enough for anyone, however, rationality isn't rational at the moment.

Since The Thing is exponential there is a worst-case-scenario that everyone on the entire planet will have it by the middle of May, if not before.

So correctly assuming that you are the last person to get it, then you will need eight rolls of bathroom tissue. This will see you through to the calamity and through two weeks of self isolation to either recover or die.

If living in a house of two adults with two point two children, one dog and two cats, then you are going to need four of those nine roll packs to see The Thing through.

This has some contingency for problems of localised flooding in your bathroom, a stomach bug or children that are secretly selling your supplies.

Plus this allows for extra supplies in case vulnerable locked-down Baby Boomers run out in your neighbourhood and need the folding stuff.

Given that the hoarding mentality is growing at an exponential rate and that every tree on the planet could be cut down for bathroom tissue in a month's time, the people buying dozens of rolls are arguably behaving in a rational manner.
Give it another two three weeks at least
As long as they own a smartphone, I'd categorize it as pretending. It's like a slave owner who goes vegan. It's clear that they do not give up their own benefits, but merely pretend to, by making choices that do not really infringe on their core benefits.
Whilst its great that people are iterating on existing products out there, I feel slightly sad that we just have a load of "alternatives" that don't play nicely with each other.

It would be much nicer if I could use FaceTime, whilst speaking to someone on Hangouts, plus someone else on Jitsi. Apart from discovery, what is stopping that? I'm assuming they all use basically the same underlying codecs, of course!
Icky!
> What might be combined with surprise in the future?

From what you say, a chemical weapon would be pretty surprising today.
And a related question: How far is too far and/or impractical?

I just recently was working on a backend application and was modeling the database entities. The project uses UUIDs as primary keys. Should each entity have its own primary key type? `Location` gets a `LocationId`, User gets a 'UserId', etc, etc, where they're really all just wrappers around UUID?

Honestly, I thought about doing that a bunch of times during the start of the project, but I was pretty sure I'd get some harsh, sideways, glances from the rest of the team.
In that case, the best use might be the "isolate mild cases" approach: everyone who tests positive goes on the ship, even (especially) if they don't have symptoms. If they deteriorate to severe, move them to a real hospital. This has been a big part of the Wuhan campaign.
Thank you, this is very helpful.

Virtual Travels in the Pandemic Age
Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin seem to be a promising cure for COVID19
0.3% & 0.9% are optimistic.

South Korea's naive case fatality rate (CFR) is already 120 deaths/9037 cases = ~1.3% today, gradually going up from ~0.5-0.6% a few weeks ago. Why? People in a functioning healthcare system take time to die and these people were infected during an expansion phase of spread which rapidly increases #cases (denominator).

SK's cohort CFR is even higher. More properly, we should use the infection number from 3 weeks ago because it takes 3-4+ weeks from exposure to death: 120 deaths/4335 cases = ~2.8%

Germany's current naive CFR at 0.4% will also rise in a similar manner for the same reasons. (You can bookmark this.)

South Korea has the 2nd highest number of hospital beds per capita in the world and 4 times the US number. Germany: 4th and almost 3 times.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_hospital_...

South Korea's and Germany's hospitals were never overwhelmed in the same manner as Italy's. A major reason Italy's fatality number is so high is because doctors there cannot save everyone anymore.
Yours is an argument against tourism. Sure a lot of people dislike tourism but it’s a major source of income in many places where there are few other industries. When people pay local businesses then at least money stays where they are spent, helping locals who don’t work in the tourist industry by providing funding for services etc. Thats why hotels and restaurants are a good way to spend money.

Cruise tourism usually pays very little to local business but the crowds and pollution is there anyway.
