It’s not per se, otherwise Terminal.app and iTerm2.app would be among the most sinister signed apps ever. Signatures only protect the app bundle itself, not user-supplied code or code fetched to locations outside the bundle.

However, it’s bafflingly weird to include such a thing just to skip a button press or two in the installer.

Probably, though I wouldn't be so sure we'll know what to make of more complex computer-brain hybrids:

"These neurons are then embedded in a nourishing liquid medium on top of a specialized metal-oxide chip containing a grid of 22,000 tiny electrodes that enable programmers to provide electrical inputs to the neurons and also sense their outputs."
I understand these 3 solutions belong to European strategy: "Mitigation".

Asia is performing another strategy: "Suppression" tracing every one single positive case in their countries. In a few months they will be able to walk by the street knowing there is no even one single positive case out of quarantine in the whole country to be afraid of. This way they can wait two years or more to a global solution and minimal interference in their daily lives.
Theia does not target end users. It is IDE platform for product builders. Think if you want to build domain specific IDE which inherits VS Code UX. See who is using Theia and why here: https://dev.to/svenefftinge/theia-1-0-finally-a-good-browser...

For end users, we build Gitpod to provide continious development environment: https://dev.to/svenefftinge/continuous-dev-environments-the-... For instance try to run Theia: https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/eclipse-theia/theia After try to build Theia from sources locally.
Rude, and not good conduct for the etiquette of this community. Instead of backing up your statement you attacked the messenger.
That’s quite interesting. It would be great if you explain a bit more about it.

Namely, this is only used for locations close roads? Can other natural occurrences of sound give the same result? Can the same source that’s moving give a better picture of what’s below by that fact that it’s moving? Ie setup at different locations, so to speak.
Zoom video conferences are NOT E2E encrypted, but they claimed it is. That is the main problem.

I think you managed to find a bug in the GitHub syntax highlighter, as https://gist.github.com/juskrey/61148c98bdde871a8d3743f54b82... has no colors after line ~108.
Not very good for "traditional", dry scanning either. IR-based scratch/dust removal stuff in Nikon scanners didn't work on it. But at least if you don't project too often, the colors would last for a very long time.

Unfortunately Omni's software is pretty old and bloated at this point, although I've only used OmniFocus and OmniGraffle. The former is very powerful but this is a blessing and a curse, in that the UX is very cluttered and quite intimidating. I honestly think that Things has exceeded it now, being less customisable but also capturing the essence of what makes OmniFocus good without getting bogged down in too much customisation and verbosity. OmniFocus is the opposite of a productivity tool to me, it keeps you in the app for too long configuring and setting things up just right, instead of getting out of the way

OmniGraffle is great, and probably the best diagramming tool I've used, however it feels like it hasn't had a really significant update in a very long time and it's starting to show frankly

Ibn Tufail is one of the fathers of modernity. His book was translated by one of John Locke’s friends. In the context of history, this is early modern Spain. 800 years is a long time for an individual, but if the question is "did people always do this or is this a modern thing?" then finding a text at the dawn of modernity which was specifically influential on later moderns doesn't count as evidence that people always did a thing.

I’d need to read Horace to get a sense of the context there.

EDIT: Looked up Horace:

> We, who love the country, salute Fuscus that loves the town… If we must live suitably to nature, and a plot of ground is to be first sought to raise a house upon, do you know any place preferable to the blissful country? … You may drive out nature with a fork, yet still she will return, and, insensibly victorious, will break through [men's] improper disgusts.

I believe in context, this is about how country living is better than city living, so it's not really about "man vs. nature" at all. I think the metaphor is that like a farm where you're ploughing the soil, still little plants will do their thing, so too you may like the city, but little bursts of rural enthusiasm will burst through.

Ibn Tufail came up with a thought experiment of "What if a person were born on a desert island? How far could they build a civilization?" The English translated this in the early modern period, and it gave birth to Robinson Crusoe, which in turn gave birth to a million derivates which pit lone individuals against the wilderness. (Robinson Crusoe → Survivor → The Apprentice → Coronavirus disaster!) AFAICT, this is a purely modern phenomenon, but again, I'd be interested in seeing what predecessors there are historically that I'm missing.

> Thing is, this model doesn't explain "everything".

To use an example: If I go to work wearing a nice shirt that is cleaned and ironed, signalling theory would say I'm showing I can afford nice clothes, and to keep them looking nice. But if I go to work wearing a worn out tee-shirt I got for free from a vendor, signalling theory would say I'm signalling tech worker group membership, and that I have a modern trendy employer, or even that I'm so confident in my skills that trivial matters like clothes are inconsequential.

Likewise, I travel to work by nice car? Signalling wealth. By economical car? Signalling good financial sense. By running or bicycle? Signalling fitness and free time. By public transport? Signalling virtue and environmentalism.

If no matter the input, signalling theory would say "aha, exactly as expected" then can signalling theory ever be disproven?

It depends. Some people know their plants; other just want your data (aliexpress, ahem...), and will send you anything instead to justify the order. You could end with invasive species (just because there is plenty of them), or sowing canary's food.

Heat slows it (edit: ?), but exponential growth is still exponential growth. From the article, India's doubling time is currently about 5 days [1]. In 20 days, that means going from 200 cases to 200 * 2⁴ = 3200. In 40 days, 200 * 2⁸ = 51000, and 62 days is enough to pass 1 million. The US has been doubling every 2-3 days, so it will get there faster (probably in spite of the measures being taken). Even Japan and Singapore still seem to be following an exponential curve, just with a doubling time of ~10 days.

VS Code has a clear scope to be smart light-weight editor. It fits to mainstream needs indeed, but not for firms trying to build domain specific IDEs.

Theia does not have problems with VS Code. It embraces great tech and UX behind VS Code and makes it available to build custom products with ability to rebrand UI, get full control of developer experience, and so on.

There is no competition, but rather collaboration. So far Theia adopters were building own products by porting interesting tech from VS Code and contributing bug and feature requests back. Sometimes even by going and proposing fixes for them in VS Code.

Which means they can't be used for distributed set intersections, unions or cardinality estimations, a not insignificant side-benefit of bloom filters.
Most game designers understand that the act of play is an act of learning, and learning new things is exactly what makes games interesting. However, different games assume that you get to learn some things in that manner, and other things are just a neccessary alphabet that you have to get as fast as you can to get things up and running.

In a classical example, you can spend your whole life learning chess, but no one expects you to figure out how different pieces move by trial and error - it's explained prior to the game. It's not because chess game designers are lazy: it's because figuring out how pieces move wouldn't be a fun gameplay.

Wouldn't only specialised applications need to record ultra fine time resolution? My guess would be that those applications would use a more appropriate (larger) data format than the current timestamp, and the other applications would just use the standard 1 second resolution time stamp.
Smart idea, thanks.
If there are a significant number of deaths in India, it will not go unnoticed; whether they happen in slums or elsewhere. India has chaotic but functional healthcare reporting and oversight, and they're actively tracking the epidemic with whatever means they have at their disposal.

In short, infections may well go unnoticed because of limited testing. But deaths will be recorded.

Show HN: Lockdown dates overlaid onto Covid-19 charts
Hi HN,

Committing to lockdowns is a powerful way to fight covid-19. I wanted to show its (encouraging) effects so I overlaid the lockdown dates onto different growth charts.

The mental overhead of renting every piece of software I own would be exhausting, not to mention consistently expensive. Subscriptions come out of a different part of the my budget than purchases do, and it is an ongoing expense I have to factor is versus coming out of my funds once every few years, if I can afford it at that time. There are several pieces of software I would have gladly bought at 2-3 times their annual subscription rate, but instead simply moved on from. I get it. Software developers need to be paid, but I’m not renting every tool I want to use. I also understand I’m in the minority because I understand why there is a new version every few years and would gladly purchase those. Simply put, the overhead and uncertainty of a subscription model devalues the vast majority of software for me to make me find alternatives.
One example is enough to disprove the assertion that paid sick time would necessarily be abused any time it is given, which is what the original post asserted. If you’re going to be pedantic at least be correct. What you’ve done is move the goalposts.

If the workers in question really are taking this kind of risk, and if their jobs really are essential for the functioning of society, then.. maybe they should be really well paid?

The airplane cockpits I've read about have multiple screens, with knobs selecting the function of each screen (and which of the redundant flight computers control each screen), so a failed screen can be replaced by selecting its function on another screen. This makes more sense (and is simpler) than carrying a replacement screen (which would be dead weight most of the time) and designing a hot-swap mechanism (which would be yet another potential point of failure).
