I'm not sure I understand your point. Are you implying that those talking heads are not responsible for the statements they made and the repercussions there of?
I agree that we have huge amount of talking heads around with zero skin in the game and zero consequences when they are wrong, but I disagree covid-19 pandemics changed anything. There are literally dozens of politicians who have been disastrously wrong and gave advice in public which is diametrically opposite to what should have been, and suffered absolutely no consequences. And everybody's reaction to this is as tribal as it has ever been - if it's my tribe, "he may be wrong this once but it's an understandable mistake", if it's the opposing tribe, "yet another proof these vile creatures is literally the worst scum of humanity". Nothing changed. All tribes of American politics, at least, that I can see, are happily turning the epidemics into the fodder for their tribal causes, as they did with everything else before that.
I am in MV.

Unfortunately most online things are overwhelmed. They don't have enough shoppers. You can keep checking for a slot opening up, but its a challenge and hard to plan for. Are you specifically looking for fresh items, or are there particular things you need?

Staples are usually available, and you can sometimes get them from smaller vendors online. At least those you can plan ahead for a future delivery. For some staples I've had luck with Target and random online (usually specialty/gourmet) sellers.

For fresh items, its harder -- either get lucky with online or go =/. You can try the smaller chains as they are lower foot traffic or in some cases are better at rate limiting customers. I've had luck with Ava's downtown (they also have early hours for senior and/or immunocompromised). Nijiya is rate limiting, as is Trader Joes (expect 30+ min line though). Nob Hill has been OK, they also have special pre-packaged boxes for seniors and at risk customers. They are first come/first serve, and have mixes of staples/fresh foods. They say they're available via e-cart as well, but I haven't tried. I've had to book Nob Hill ~1 week ahead (and didn't get everything). Dittmer's is also rate limiting (but sounds like you're good on meats).

As a last resort -- the MV farmer's market opens an early for seniors and immunocompromised (so either 8 or 8:30, I can't remember and its not listed online). I've been ~9 and its busier than I'd like. They're trying to enforce line spacing and do limit number of people in booths. Some booths only sell pre-bagged items held behind the counter (e.g. apples from Rainbow).

As a last resort -- maybe a shared grocery need list with friends/neighbors? Someone can pick up an extra item or two when they're out. We've been doing that at times and following usual safety procedures afterward.

Take care!
Yeah. Brain fog. I've traced mine to the following:

+ Stress on uncertain situations

+ Lack of sleep

+ Lack of clarity of 'the next thing to do'

I can't solve the first, so I try to handle the latter two with the obvious solutions (sleep more, set next task) but also with other methods. I tried different Mg supplements, Caffeine + L-Theanine, -afinils, and Adderall under these circumstances. Adderall turbo'd my performance back up and past, the -afinils worked if sleep was the problem, and the others didn't help at all.

If you are a disciplined person, then maybe occasional Adderall use will help. I have no dependence issues (use is roughly once / 3 months) but if you have discipline problems, then don't do it, tolerance is easy to build and addiction is possible.

I am currently attempting CBT strategies. Going to give STOPP a shot.
From what I understand and looking at the supported opcodes [0] io_uring allows submitting certain "system calls" (and some other auxiliary operations you would normally expect in an async API) asynchronously. So, if you can interact with your device driver using those system calls, then you should be able to do so. I am personally not familiar with Linux, so I am unsure if those system calls are sufficient for normal operation, but it lacks ioctl, so it is not sufficient for total replacement in all cases.

Some days ago I stumbled on this page: https://www.unfoxmycablebox.com/. It says that Fox News finances itself largely by hidden subscriber fees which are part of a cable or satellite TV subscription. It proposes to write your provider that you do not want to support Fox News. For example, AT&T subscribers pay 24$ per year to Fox News.

What do you think about it?
Factual is probably the biggest vendor for selling user location data and audience targeting for advertising, and I would imagine adding in foursquare creates lots of new possibilities for both companies.
Sure you can find an edge case in my general statement.

> The evidence of people usually choosing to retire

The key word in that is "choosing". A huge number of people even in G7 countries comprise the working poor. They cannot, and likely will never be able to "choose" to retire. They work 40hrs/wk, often with two incomes and have no savings.

While we can debate the life choices of some of these people, it remains that working 40hrs/wk should not lead to an outcome where you can only just scrape by.
I get a 404 whenever I try to click on a game
For starters, if they had to make that choice they'd just use one of the many CPAP or BiPAP machines already available in the hospitals. Even though this would render the machine single-patient only (since they generally can't be sanitized to acceptable levels for re-use without being partially dissembled) we don't have a shortage of those devices.

When I visited Kenya in 2012, I was fascinated to discover that this existed, and had been going strong for years already. Meanwhile in the US, money transfer seems dated by comparison. Crypto offers some hope, but the ecosystem is so fragmented and dominated by shady people.
Interestingly there's a variant that attacks dogs that's a bit more severe and people have actually developed a vaccine for that variant. Well, it might also be that it's a lot easier, regulations wise, to develop a vaccine for dogs than for humans. It works great but your dog has to have a booster every year or two to keep full immunity.
Intuitively, if your request is handled by 1 service you have 1 chance that your request lands at the extreme end of the latency distribution. If your requests require 20 services, that's 20 chances.

In reality maybe someone is able to make each microservice so much more performant and is able to deal with slow or failed requests gracefully in the UX. Some sites do, but it doesn't automatically by any means.

I noticed this too. For me, diet was the main culprit in my inconsistency. My armchair theory is that either fluctuating blood sugar levels during sleep or imbalance of gut microbiome are the cause.

A mild ketogenic diet worked wonders for my sleep quality and mental clarity. Intermittent fasting too (on meal a day).

Those can be tough to follow, though. I also found that eating no carbs 4 hours before bed and no big meals 2 hours before bed can help as well.
It was unreasonable at that point. I'm no epidemiologist, but I understood exponential growth at that point to know that, because it wasn't being contained (no measures with a reasonable chance of containment were being taken at exactly the time when they really had to be taken), there was no stopping the exponential growth in the near term in the US. And especially once it was spreading in Italy, there was just not a credible reason to say "it cannot happen here." You should mistrust people's judgement in the future on similar such topics if they were dismissive of the possibility of this happening.

You should update your Bayesian priors about the credibility and judgement of those people on topics such as this. And that IS constructive.

Doesn't mean that those people are useless, but unless you've seen a mea culpa from them, you should look warily on future such predictions. You should note to yourself "this person may be prone to downplaying some risks and interpreting things over-optimistically, with some amount of wishful thinking."
Predictions on random internet sites are cheap, worth thing you risk is losing a little money or some imaginary Internet points. Politicians are in a situation where their predictions can cost lives, they are forced to make them - and in most cases, they have no information and no ability to make any proper analysis of the situation. So they just do what they've done most of their professional lives - they bullshit away.
I've noticed since sheltering at home and having fewer eating cues, I have been stretching my normal fasting until lunch later and later.
History and Risk
> I wonder if they collected data from the 3DS and WiiU and could tell that playtime on portable systems was orders of magnitude greater on portables.

My school took us on a tour of companies with west coast offices that were looking for data talent. Nintendo was one of them. We met with their data science team. It was... one guy. For all of Nintendo of America. He was trying to get it to two guys.

I think very highly of nintendo's management because they're very willing to try zany things and fail (ring fit, wii, wii u, switch, nintendo labo, two screen ds, 3ds, etc. etc.). I find their games to be excellent and their hardware to be way more interesting than competitors. They're not really a video game company so much as a toy company at heart. And they are definitely not data driven.
> Do you have some statistical data that shows hospitalization rates of young people _because of_ (instead of just _with_) corona virus?

Doesn't that require a study after the fact? So your proposal is to just wait and see?

BTW, how do you explain the unprecedented hospitalization and ICU rates in Northern Italy?

As an example, this report from European Society of Anaesthesiology[1] mentions:

> The number of intensive care beds in Italy continues to change. Initially, there were 500 public intensive care (ICU) beds in Lombardy, and 140 private ICU beds. However, now there are more than 900.

>his response was absolute sinophobia given that a couple dozen additional measures would have have to be shown to display competency in this.

You are blinded by your hatred. Half the country has become totally unable to evaluate anything the president does objectively.

What proportion of world governments are xenophobic now for closing down borders?

>It is the president the one who sets the tone and priority for these issues, and having been wisely advised, he obviously sat around, downplayed the issue

And so did just about every other world government. Including your "model" "democratic socialist" European nations - hell, Sweden is still betting on herd immunity.

Rational thinking ceases when anyone brings up Trump. I'd also caution anyone evaluating this crisis response to recognize the unprecedented smear by the media. How many "US commandeers masks" articles have been corrected over the last few days now? Look it up, I bet you didn't hear about the quiet corrections. This happens all the damn time.

Trump is a shitty president but much of the hate he gets is pure partisan hysteria. Look at how quickly the tide turned against Chloroquine simply because he tweeted about it. Pure idiocy.

There's an old saying that people deserve their rulers.

Edit: and by the way, on the subject of rising claims of sinophobia: the CCP is not your friend. The world is paying now for their lies. All the little trickles of COVID symptomology that we are still just getting today should have been officially announced by China months ago while they were trying to cover up and downplay the virus to a much deeper degree than our president. There is a propaganda war waging right now across the internet with China attempting to set a narrative and by ignorantly screaming "sinophobia!" You are playing right into their narrative.
This kind of list crops up pretty often, but again the implicit implication doesn't hold. These products are not "top" because they have good pricing pages, they have good pricing pages because they're at the top. I remember most of their pricing pages on their way to the top of their respective fields, and they were shitty.

I've had experiences where I've emailed people who left and received nothing in response, only to find out days/weeks later via other means that person left the company.

I've also experienced where I've emailed people who left and received immediate automated replies informing me of the change and providing me with a new contact person.

I've never, ever experienced a time where I've emailed person@company[dot]com and received a casual reply like "Hey man, I quit that place. Hit me up and we can grab beers!"

And I think anybody would be shocked if that were the case. Especially if you kept getting those emails as a former employee and no other current employees were getting them also. Nevermind mailboxes cost money or physical resources most of the time. To expend those resources to all former employees indefinitely is not practical. And I don't want to keep my mailboxes at former employers anyway. I have enough notifications on my phone to be batting away vendors and suppliers from previous employers.
Maybe calling them "shitty" is a little uncharitable. They were fine, but nothing special.
The times I've felt like this have been in conjunction with slow-burn stressful events. I've also felt my body sometimes seem to handle nutrition differently under stress, like I'm keeping the lights on but actually joints and muscles feel terrible if the stress lasts too long.

This is typically a retrospection thing, and not a revelation that occurs in the midst of the feeling. One day I'll wake up, make a huge breakthrough, feel great, and wonder if I've been asleep for a month. My memory of the period is also fuzzy.

I think our brains are way more nuanced than we appreciate.
Well why don’t you work a minimum wage job?
If all you want is food, a roof and Netflix, you can get all that for the minimum wage.

As a developer, you could ave your money for 3 years then live the next 10 in a country cabin doing nothing but watching movies.

This is the same choice faced by most people in the real middle class. Yet why do we want more? Not just entertainment, but better schools, and the chance to make an impact on the world.

Sure some people would take the money and do nothing, but many more will take this guaranteed income as a chance to take risks. Imagine, anyone who wants to can go to community college for free now, but can’t practically do it because they will starve without their job. Now anyone can do it.

There are two valid points in there, despite how easy a target "the media" is.

- People saying things with confidence that they didn't know to be true

- This happens all the time but with Coronavirus, the facts came to light within days of them saying this

I get what Paul Graham is saying here.
> Over the past few days, this has gotten less viable. We'd find ourselves driving 50 miles to pickup a $30 order.

You might consider making tiers of food. And maybe get a standup freezer if you have the space/budget:

Tier 1: fast perishable fruits/vegetables, e.g. bananas. You buy these in quantity at the store, but accept you’ll run out between trips
Tier 2: root vegetables and other long lasting produce. You buy in quantity and store in a cool, dark place. Should last a while
Tier 3: frozen meat, frozen nuts, frozen vegetables. Frozen sliced bread
Tier 4: canned fish, canned fruit, canned vegetables. Canned meat/jerky

I’m Canadian. My grandma had a root cellar in the basement. Tier 1 was basically out of the question every winter for a portion of her life

You more or less arrange things as a tradeoff between tier 1, and trips to the store, which are both costly and increase exposure odds.

You also then keep checking all delivery options and look for alternate qaya to keep tier up. But tiers 2 and 3 are fairly decent.

There’s also bulk meal cooking + freezing after a store run. This is where the freezer comes in handy again.

If you have a backyard, also a good time to experiment with gardening.

It sounds like you’re already doing a good job of having emergency stockpiles. Am hopeful this might give you some more ideas for how to make the long term stockpile more palatable in between orders.
I guess it depends on where you live. Eight hours exceeds the time from dawn to sunset for much of the year in northern latitudes. Also, the study doesn't say 16:8 doesn't have the same effects.
The WHO emphasized the lack of evidence for human-human transmission on Jan 14.
This is a really cool idea! My friends and I play games and watch movies through Zoom. We just screenshare one person's screen, and it usually works out.

I'm not sure if there's a way to create a platform to play any game through Zoom, but if you have a Google Form with game requests, I'm sure you can very quickly scale up your offerings with confidence.
First, all large companies have the ability to snoop on employee's emails and communications. It's also possible that managers have asked for this capability to monitor their employees. So no real surprises there.

Reason can always be found for termination. So it's probably not worthwhile trying to fight it.

People think that managers are super fair, but it turns out many of them are more like Trump, specifically with the fragile ego aspect. Simple compliments, undeserved or not, go a long way to help stabilize his ego, and his treatment of you. Ideally your ideas become his ideas.

I know it sucks, but you have zero power in this relationship. So either you play ball with the guy, or you quit and find a job that's more about the job and less about ego stroking.

Are there any games that you've found work particularly well this way?
Sure, but they handle it well.

I placed an order for a pair of 35lb dumbbells, and only one came, and the cardboard box around it was falling apart.

I called customer support, probably for the first time in my life, to ask wtf happened. And they explained the logistics issue (the dumbbells were shipped separately for some reason), and ended up crediting me half the cost of the dumbbells, even though the first wasn't really damaged.

Also their dumbbells were better and cheaper than Amazon's, so there's that too.
Many of these regulations explicitly require that the lender produce any and all communications between the lender and borrower on-demand--and for good reason.
