That's just over a quarter of the annual deaths due to malnutrition.

Is it okay for me to just shed the equal amount of tears, or are people then going to accuse me of being emotionally stunted?

The reason is that people should not feel additional pressure to do amazing things right now. If they don't have the energy to learn Cantonese and build an app while their relatives are in ICU, that should be fine.
LOL! Good one. Though, don't give them any ideas ^_^
99.4% is the current best estimate.

If you're under 50 or healthy, it's effectively 100%.

That's not to minimize the very real human tragedy though. Just a bit of context. Remember that 650,000 people die of heart disease every year, and a lot of those deaths are preventable.
Hate all you want, you know an American company will probably invent the vaccine.

Actually, that's exactly how words work. Your definition of dinosaur is very narrow, the etymology fits with what we know commonly as dinosaurs:

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dinosaur#Etymology

"Mighty reptiles"

But this article isn't about dinosaurs so it actually doesn't matter at all.

Describing the device in the article as a "wireless telephone" seems reasonable to me. It allowed voice communication at distance without wires.

Your question is answered by the rest of the sentence you didn't quote.

Describing the device as a "radio voice transceiver" might be more technically correct but I'm not sure how it makes the headline any better. Nobody uses that kind of language to describe a CB radio or cell phone, even though that's technically what they are.

The device fits within a reasonable interpretation of what we understand as a wireless telephone and how the device was used.

The headline could have been written "WWI pilots had CB radios" but then our pedantic argument here would be about what spectrum was used.
So you're saying I can pull an SSD with a working Windows 10 installation from another computer and plug it into a GNU/Linux system running systemd-boot and it will boot Windows 10? (Ignoring any potential driver issues that may arise from the difference in hardware and [most likely] violating the Microsoft EULA)
The problem with this reasoning is that it misses the key ingredient that might have helped people achieve great things: solitude.

Solitude is almost impossible to reach with today's attention economy (mostly social media), people will most likely spend their quarantine watching countless videos on the internet.

What the plague removed are distractions, we can't say the same for covid-19, unless you're trained to resist the attention economy, but then you wouldn't need a pandemic to do deep work.
It's amazing how people here are managing to find fault in a 3 paragraph long inspirational post. You don't have to do any of this stuff, it's not a mandate, just a person on the internet arguing for something positive.

Again, this is one element that is very easy and extremely effective for the amount of effort it requires. You can still change DNS on individual devices if you want. You can still use local adblockers. You can still make individual devices use dns whitelists.

Hear Hear. I look back at supporting Netscape 4 in late 90's as equally painful as supporting IE6 in late 2000's. It's difficult to imagine, but Internet Explorer was superbly superior during that time. For example, the Netscape4 window couldn't even be resized without needing to reload and redraw the page from scratch.
The difference is a phone has never been a general purpose computing device. So saying that we need to make them one so that laptops remain one sounds to me akin to “if we don’t have full control of the software our watches run, we might one day end up not having full control of the software our laptops run”. It’s a bizarre comparison to make in my opinion.

And and just be clear on what 2G speeds are on the T-Mobile plan with included "international data" its 128 Kbps! [1][2]. Try to open an email attachment or render a tile in mapping app with that. It's a non-starter.

It's quite amusing to me that sharing my experience with a specific carrier's international roaming plan would upset someone. Are people actually T-Mobile fan boys? I mean it's a telecom company for heaven's sake. Telecom is one of the sleaziest industries there is. Who cares?! They're all different degrees of shit.

For a little context during a 3 years period I was spending a little over 200 days a year on the road internationally with a work issued T-Mobile phone during that time. My experience is not unique either. You can check https://community.t-mobile.com/

I just started up a project using this. It’s pretty good so far. The documentation on common tasks is a little bit lacking. VS Code integration is sort of broken in a few random ways (for example if I try and do a find all function definition it just hangs). I also wish there was a npm style script section in the definitions. I do think it really just works though and I think it’s a great solution compared to requirements.txt.

It's OK. Leibnitz[1] (who independently invented calculus) would also have had to be doing pull-ups for calculus to not have been invented. Although Newton not having invented calculus might also have hampered his contributions to physics, which would have been a great loss.

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gottfried_Wilhelm_Leibniz

----

Something I just learned about Leibnitz from that Wikipedia article - he was also a pioneer in computing:

"He became one of the most prolific inventors in the field of mechanical calculators. While working on adding automatic multiplication and division to Pascal's calculator, he was the first to describe a pinwheel calculator in 1685 and invented the Leibniz wheel, used in the arithmometer, the first mass-produced mechanical calculator. He also refined the binary number system, which is the foundation of all digital computers."

I'm optimistic. Overall they got basic technology and market fit right in a very competitive market. They have had security issues but don't seem anywhere near the worst offender. That honor probably goes to Windows OS releases of yore.

The security problems seem fixable if they put their minds to it. Other companies have messed this up but later regained trust.

That's GDM's fault, although XRandr doesn't make it any easier to implement.
I think that telling the millions of people living in poverty -- many of whom still have to go into the world and work in the face of great risks, others who will be out of work and struggling to feed their families -- that this is an opportunity for them to be like Isaac Newton is pretty tone deaf. A statement like this only works if you are only talking to people who have the privilege of a safety net.

There are approximately 40 million US citizens living in poverty. Try going to their houses and telling them that Isaac Newton invented calculus during the plague, so they should look at this as an opportunity for them to learn a foreign language or program an app. You might want to plan an escape route before you do so, though.
by this time i think these are covert reverse-psychology marketing pieces. I mean, despite the bad press, facebook kept increasing in usage.
We use it, it's fine. Although it gets some hate with the executives because we can't have more than four people on screen at any one time. I think they lament they can't have a panopticon of everybody at once? There's a blog post from Microsoft with a nebulous commitment to increase it to nine.

Honestly I don't care about seeing who's in the meeting beside who's speaking so four is plenty.
The paragraph you omitted between the cherry picked quotes explain that this month is a good time to try and do things you normally can't because you're normally too busy, like calling family, or cooking a new food.
What about Google? Google Image search? Are you going to whitelist those or not?

Hostname based blocking can never be accurate.
Sure, use Ed25519 keys, but their cryptographic strength and convenience are only some of the reasons: they also enforce the new style OpenSSH key format (which should be the default in current releases of OpenSSH, after we released that ranty blog post that one time :-))
This is correct. There were 1.9k new cases on the first of March. The dashboards I checked were out of date, but the latest is 75k new cases on the 30th. The curve ramped up around the 12th. And that's only people who were able to get a test. We have no idea how big this thing is.

Anyone would recognize that kind of growth as a breakout success if it were users on an app, but somehow they don't recognize the pattern with a disease.
Since the X-rays are being refracted rather than absorbed, will this technique make them much safer as well?
> So dinosaur can be reasonably interpreted to mean "mighty reptile".

I don’t think you understand - they aren’t reptiles, mighty or otherwise. They’re lepidosaurs, but they aren’t reptiles.
This guy is saying take the silver lining if you can. This is a positive call to action, take it and be inspired to do something. This general sentiment applies to life in general.

There’s a lot of comments here focusing on the negative. I think we’re all well aware of the things that aren’t going well. I have empathy for all those impacted by the pandemic, it does suck.

But, forgot glass half empty, go for half full! There are all kinds of opportunities out there (not equality distributed of course), and it is up to you to get creative and leverage those opportunities available to you no matter how mundane they may be. Do it!
> Completely at a loss at how to contain the spread of this dangerous information during a pandemic.

This is the reality of free information and free expression, it's a problem that has to be addressed at a cultural level, trusted community and family leaders need to guide the ignorant, you can't prevent exposure to bad ideas.

Is it normal for a man to tag an infant picture he posted #hotard? What are #chickenlovers?
Probably because they don't employ native English speakers for this sort of work. Also, no QA. You'd expect these errors in a 3 person startup, not a public company worth almost 40 billion USD.
I'm pretty much full stack - UX work is typically "post a prototype or sketch or plan, wait for feedback". I think this works better when one has strongly structured design protocols though.

I've worked through a lot of different fields getting to where I am now - for instance, warehouse inventory and paperwork handling raises the importance of accurate warehouse inventories (and they weren't low before) - but a lot of the paperwork could easily be done remotely these days. (sometimes I miss forklift driving - it was a lot less stressful than programming in many ways, although it required a much more immediate care and caution and physically higher risk)
I suspect that crosses a lot of other varieties of work - paperwork could be more offloaded or moved digital, while the key actions still require people, mostly.
And someone always has to maintain the infrastructure.

Knuth's TeX is somewhat widely used, yet has the similar characteristic of approaching stability.
This looks great, but just wondering if you have looked at something like Airtable (https://airtable.com/) to solve this? I had a couple custom tools that were similar, but I've been able to replace them w/ Airtable and it has been nice to not maintain those anymore.
Despite the downvotes you make a good point.

The paper does not address the underlying assumption: jobs are fixed in number and type and we can only change the location.

In reality, job markets are extremely elastic.

Case in point: millions of jobs in the world exist only because a human worker is slightly cheaper than a machine at a given task.
> execute a lot of men

I had to search that on Wikipedia. This is referring to the men Newton prosecuted for counterfeit coins as part of his Master of Mint appointment.
This is a real shame, wish they would continue to support their Android App, it's my go to for weather.
I totally agree with this. Don't forget all the bespoke systems that companies end up implementing because they either aren't aware of those other projects or they started doing it before some of those other projects existed or because they aren't a fit.
With regards to using ssh-agent, this is what I have in my .bash_profile:

export SSH_ENV=$HOME/.ssh/environment_${HOSTNAME}

function start_agent {
echo -n "Initialising new SSH agent... "
touch ${SSH_ENV}
chmod 600 ${SSH_ENV}
/usr/bin/ssh-agent -s | sed 's/^echo/#echo/' > ${SSH_ENV}
echo "succeeded."
. ${SSH_ENV} > /dev/null
}

# Don't use Gnome keyring for SSH
if [[ $SSH_AUTH_SOCK =~ /run/user ]]; then
unset SSH_AUTH_SOCK
unset SSH_AGENT_PID
fi

# Source SSH settings, if applicable
ssh-add -l > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ $? -eq 0 -o $? -eq 1 ]; then
echo "SSH Agent found."
else
echo -n "Looking for SSH Agent... "
if [ -f "${SSH_ENV}" ]; then
. ${SSH_ENV} > /dev/null
ssh-add -l > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ $? -eq 0 -o $? -eq 1 ]; then
echo "found pid: ${SSH_AGENT_PID}."
else
echo "not found."
start_agent;
fi
else
start_agent;
fi
ssh-add -l
fi

This starts up a new ssh-agent if it can't find one, but uses the same agent if it is already running on this machine (I remote into a bunch of systems). So even if I use a bunch of screen sessions, or remote in to a machine multiple times, it will always try to use the same agent.
What is your opinion on using a secret management system?

There is no way to delete an account???

Have you seen these last links? They are far from being positive. Also the author has some pretty extremist stuff on twitter.
Huh? They must have been joking. There are many cases with models that are good enough that you can calculate the gains depending on the desired response. I have done it many times.
Whatever magic is powering the ability to just run ``systemctl kexec`` and have it automatically reboot into the same kernel you selected at boot without going through UEFI again.
My wife and I are trying to manage a 6 year old and 3 year old and the original comment made me try to imagine what the theoretical hardest age to try to work from home with would be. 5mo and 2yr is roughly what I came up with in my head.

Not that it helps much, but you have my sympathy. If it feels like it's really, really hard, stressful, and frustrating it's because it is. And that's okay.
