The lockdown is not the problem, but it a problem. A new and novel one, as the article explains. My girlfriend works at a non-profit which provides shelter and support to domestic violence survivors. She counsels people in all stages. Some of her clients are dealing with this exact problem.
They're not. Corporations are not places where friends socialize, or where families support each other. They are workplaces and corporations have to look out for themselves. Doing what they need to do, not prioritizing individuals, is what they do and should be doing and employees should never mistake them as some kind of social support system.

They are both amoral corporate acts, neither bad nor good.

The difference, though, one form of an equivalent act raises pitchforks. And you wonder why executives care about "optics"? This wasn't a bad move by Image Consulting, but it was a dumb one.
A power surge here where I am may kill the power supply. It's low probability that it would kill everything.

Tin whiskers aren't the result of lead free solder. They are a result of the tin coating on component leads. If you take a close look at that nasa page you'll see that every photo is of just a component lead/termination.

Tin plating has largely been replaced by tin alloys at this point which has more or less solved the whisker issue at a large scale.

Ask HN: Looking for abstractive news summary based on machine learning
I noticed that I don't read the entire news article anymore. I look for most important details, but they are scattered and not always crisp. I have looked around for APIs and toolboxes. They aren't at par with what ML stacks (NLP/BERT/Deep Learning) has to offer. Can anyone suggest what is the best package/tool/API to do summarize news articles, say in 5 bullet points.
This is the most HN comment I've seen in a week. You tried not to blame the victim and acknowledge poverty is the trap but then came off as doing that in the context of personal responsibility shaming. Poverty or the fear of poverty is the real decision maker here; the math is as unforgiving as orbital mechanics.

And please don't reply, "But there are programs!" Governments and NGOs convince voters and donors that they are doing something by creating programs for domestic violence and then make those programs so difficult to enroll in that they spend half of their funding creating labrythine beurocracy. Anyone already at their mental capacity with abuse struggles even starting these processes.

Antimalarial drug no better than standard coronavirus care: study
Probably a lot worse than our average quarantine: no view of the outside, no fresh food, no way to 'escape' temporarily by going for groceries.

> Communism and capitalism are economic systems, not governmental systems.

Radical economic egalitarianism implies a (strong) governmental system. If capital can be sold/transferred, capitalism (i.e. concentrated control of the means of production) will naturally recur. If capital cannot be sold/transferred, someone has to decide how it's distributed, and the only body that can do that is a (governmental) central planning authority. That gives the government enormous power, whether it's a dictatorship or not.

> You can have a dictatorial communist system. You can have a democratic communist system.

This is unrelated to what I wrote. The US is essentially an oligopoly, but it's also a democratic republic.

A governmental system is affected by the dynamics of the economic system. After many generations, the governmental system may be utterly different from what was originally established or intended (as is the case in the US).

The easiest way I can think of is to got commit your AWS keys to a public repo.

(This actually happened to me a while back - a new employee created a 201st repo, which our private repo paid limit was 200, so the new repo was automatically made public and he had keys in his code. We had thousands of bitcoin mining instances launched using the keys and cost $75,000 super fast.

We caught it really quickly and AWS dropped the cost.
While the ideal of capitalism -- the freedom of capital -- may not be everyone's ideal, its proponents often say that it also leads to the freedom of individuals. I disagree, but it's definitely possible to have a regulated capitalist society with high levels of individual prosperity and freedom (e.g. Denmark).

This is really a very good point. The iPad still has a hard time looking for its killer app. And the pull to make the iPad more capable is, at its heart, “Why both an iPad and a laptop? My phone absorbed so many of the devices I used to carry; why can’t the iPad do the same?”

When it’s not trying to be all things to all people, Apple has a good story: there’s a single computing surface that spans the edge and the cloud, and whichever device you pick up should give you a window into it, though not always the same window.

So I can read web pages and send mail from my phone, but in many contexts my laptop is superior. The iPad is great somewhere in between but doesn’t leave the house. What the iPad did let me do was switch back to a smaller phone.

Another way to look at that last issue: the phone is hyper mobile. I can open an excel spreadsheet on it, in a pinch, and even edit it if it’s incredibly necessary. But never would I use it as my primary spreadsheet interface. And that’s OK. Likewise it’s a pain to pull out my laptop to look something up when I’m standing up someplace outside my office. That’s OK too.
Where I am, the second paragraph of the executive order establishing the "lockdown" explicitly states that victims of domestic violence are exempt and are urged to leave for a safer location. It makes clear further in the order that services provided are considered essential and should remain open and that transportation is also essential and should remain available.

The news media simply does a terrible job of communicating what exactly these "lockdowns" mean.

People that had a daily respite because their spouse left for work, or (as the article mentions) the stress of the situation is causing alcoholism and relapses into violence are people that need help and that the system in place most likely doesn't have the capacity to handle. This is where additional resources need to be made available.
Hope so.

This is also just a fantastic introduction to async/await in Rust, regardless of the OS bits. Another amazing article by Phil.

> The only requirement is that we use at least nightly 2020-03-25 of Rust because async/await was not no_std compatible before.

There's some fun stuff here that's omitted (which makes sense, of course). It was always a design constraint of async/await in Rust that you could use it without the standard library. However, the initial implementation required thread local storage. The future trait's poll method took a &mut Context, and generators didn't support passing context in to them when resuming. This meant that the context would be placed in TLS, and would pull it back out when needed. Generators are unstable, partially for this reason. However, this was fixed, and that means TLS is no longer a requirement here! See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/68524 for more details.
Startups Using Artificial Intelligence in Drug Discovery
Odd, though, how recently the market determined that an increase in every Amazon's base wage to $15 was suddenly fair, without a commensurate increase in labor skill or decrease in supply having taken place. And how the market also determined RSUs were no longer fair once the stock price rose high enough.

It's almost as if these things aren't really determined by the impartial, invisible hand of the market at all.
This is just making a stronger argument for not bailing out corporations at all and giving out more of the money by sending checks to individuals.

If companies need money they can sell shares, and then people have more money to buy the shares with. If that's what they want. If everybody has the money and nobody thinks a particular company is worth saving, why are we saving it?

I think you can recognize that when you see victims get out of abusive situations, it is the victim is the one who ultimately took the decisive action (abusers just generally don't stop doing that on their own...) as a fact, and still recognize how difficult it is, and you can even call for MORE / better programs (that's what I was working in ...), and there isn't any inherent blame or conflict there.

Used to work at a startup aiming to create a similar type of network. AWS joining was refreshing for validating the market and providing a big target to work against.

AWS / Lockheed made a good call with phased array antennas (SpaceX too on the satellite side). Can't scale to many different users if your ground stations can only serve one satellite at a time, similar for a satellite providing internet. I suspect there might still be challenges getting enough gain for high bandwidth, but I'm sure it'll improve with better tech. A dish is just physically stuck pointing at one angle.
