Well, I suppose I should be happy for others then. But working on my own project with no income kinda makes that sting a tiny bit. So goes the startup hustle I guess.
Then why is GP referring to 6E? Sounds like more alphabet soup, to me.
On the contrary, many see this a possibility to reduce quarantine measures.
The time to do that was a month ago.
This strikes me as tone deaf at a time when the focus should be on systemic failures and possible improvements, and the millions who will be impacted.

This is a defense in fear of Fauci being let go, given the patterns of the administration in many other areas.
Already most Americans support Medicare for all – it’s our bought elected officials who don’t.
It also seems like a job for MTurk.

Struggle under the weight of the debt, become impoverished and many may become homeless. All the while being told to just find a more lucrative job, like say, coding.
Really exciting! Well done
Do you pay for internet or electricity? Once you are connected, the marginal cost to send you another bit or electron is virtually zero.
I purchased a basic vps cloud instance from cloud.hetzner.com for €2.49 per month. 20TB of traffic a month is included, which should be sufficient. Hetzner has good network connections for European users.

Installation on Ubuntu is a breeze using an install script. It's important to complete the installation with some letsencrypt SSL certs and then you're good to go.

I created a subdomain (new A record pointing at ip address of my Jitsi server) on my business domain to make it easy for family members to go to the server themselves and create their own meeting rooms.
The market is just currently confused and will soon undoubtedly go down. 6.6m this week is just insane. Hopefully we'll see some good news regarding the virus soon.
So why not just use jQuery?
I have never used the dialog HTML element before, but I was playing around with adding an input type="password" this morning inside a HTML dialog and didn't see any problems.

VCs, possibly. The larger tech companies are selling 1 and 3 year deals for software, which will see some impact, but largely distance them from the deep V because of the length of the terms.
Is it jeopardizing voting process if college students wont have unnecessary obstacles to voting?

I struggle to understand why the sudden influx of new users would affect these security problems in any way. OK, more people are affected, but the problems are surely the same regardless of how many users they have.

To me it just comes across as an attempt to deliberately confuse the issue.
What are you going to shoot? Food or people?
Also I'm not sure if I'm in agreement with the tactic of immediately pushing employees to unemployment. Unemployment is funded by taxes which are largely paid by the same people being laid off. If you're promoting businesses push people to unemployment instead of first trying to cover them during hardship and also taking a loss (as everyone else is), you're pushing for more tax subsidies to businesses indirectly.

Unemployment is a safety net that needs to exist but it shouldn't, IMHO, be the first option to jump to. That's irresponsible unless of course you can't cover your employees at the rate unemployment can--then it's reasonable for everyone's sake.

You should look at supporting employees part time if possible, especially those who have many years association with your business that are valued players. Your first order should be to take care of yourself and those around you, not immediately jump to social safety nets and pass the hardship. Let's re-establish long term employee and employer relationships and get rid if this "everyone's constantly disposable" economic mindset.

If I'm laid off, I'll first look at my savings and hit the job market before I consider driving right into unemployment. I dont want to utilize that unless I need to and my other options fail. I expect businesses to do the same and be responsible contributors to society. If not, let's take a bit more of their stimulus money back and chuck it to other businesses and people that don't run away at the sight of a loss and try to persevere through difficult situations.
Example of healthcare apps with great UX/UI
I use it for quick meetings on Firefox and so far it works with the limited set of features I need, despite the warning.
The best situation all around here possibly is the concept of "Kurzarbeit", or short work system, that exists in Germany (Denmark also has a similar one, I believe). It basically allows employers to reduce hours they pay workers, while the gov't helps cover the shortfall to the employee, up to some maximum amount.

This prevents companies from having to layoff people, and allows them to pickup the slack and rehire everyone again when things get better.
Source? One of them said on twitter that they want to open source the stable version a few hours ago: https://twitter.com/gannimo/status/1245630618462867457

These folks also seem pretty open https://start.ito-app.org/ and cooperate / plan to cooperate with other initiatives.

There's a significant portion of any of these technical rundowns I don't get though. All of them seem to treat BTLE beacons, sprinkled with a bunch of hashing schemes, as some form of magic bullet for privacy. If your crypto was this great you might as well use my GPS with far better location accuracy, does anybody know the reasoning behind this (apart from the obvious "the public wouldn't want that")?

It's incredible how far we've fallen; the border exception is particularly terrible.

I was once driving along I-10, which is an 8-lane / 80mph interstate. CBP had blockaded the entire road, and were pulling every single car and truck off to be questioned and searched.

My truck had a canopy with heavily-tinted windows that could have easily fit a few people, but I don't "look foreign", so they waved me through without even glancing at my ID or vehicle. From the people who had been pulled off, it looked like their job was to hassle people with brown skin.

I can't fathom how it isn't a violation of the Constitution to (ostensibly) search every individual driving along a major highway. What ever happened to 'probabale cause'? Is living in the US considered evidence of committing a crime in the US nowadays?
I guess the sociopath that wrote that originally doesnt speak for everyone?
I recently built a small side project in vanilla js for fun. I just didn't want to break out webpack and waste an hour getting it set up.

I got pretty far, did all the design. I wanted to run a client side simulation in javascript though, and found I needed to host a local server as chrome refused to read modules from a file due to CORS permissions (running chrome with the usual arguments didn't fix it).

At this point, since I needed an outside piece of software to run things anyway, I figured I might as well switch to webpack dev-server and get the whole modern frontend ecosystem. I then quickly started replacing my home grown dom syncing with vuejs, and snowballed from there.

I definitely learned a couple things, so time well spent, but I'm also going straight to webpack next time. I know it'll only take a few hours before I start hitting the limits of what vanilla js can do, and while reinventing the wheel was fun and educational, it didn't result in a better wheel.
Cloudflare CEO pledges to double 2020 internship class
You know those signs we memed the hell out of last decade? They're so cliched that they don't mean anything anymore, but think of those.

Keep calm and carry on

You should relax. We're not the first humans to see some hardship. Everything isn't going to fall apart because the economy has a downturn. Society isn't going to collapse because of this. It didn't happen in the 1600s, nor the 1700s, nor the 1800s, nor the 1900s. It's not going to happen in the 2000s.

Two global wars, the use of nuclear weapons, and a 50 year cold war with the ever present threat of nuclear apocalypse didn't cause society to break down last century, a flu won't cause it to fall apart this century either.

Not quite. 1% of people who get it don't survive when healthcare resources are not strained. But when ICUs fill up, that number starts to skyrocket, because people who need intensive care cannot get it.

JS is probably the most viable programming language there is. There was one "starts with letter J" language I was thinking of (along with a few others not starting with J); very fashionable and touted here which is egregiously unviable and broken though. It ain't J or Java.
Great job Cortex team, Do you think this means Cortex will move to incubation in the CNCF landscape ?
I don't think the $1200 goes to everyone, though, right? There's an income threshold.

I mean, the number is almost irrelevant given the extent of the crisis. Might as well make it a million a person because some fundamental truths of the economy are going to completely change.
Ah yes, you are right, my previous comment is not applicable here.

A relevant datapoint here is the case of Webasto in Germany. The woman who infected employees of Webasto and thereby unwittingly created one of the first clusters in Germany was traveling, ate in restaurants etc. Yet the only known infections happened with her colleagues at Webasto, ie those with whom she sat in proximity close and over an extended period.

That indicates that infection „requires“ (or is favored) by extended proximity. It may also indicate that infection by aerosols is more „difficult“ and droplets may be more relevant —> masks!

I am writing this not to say all-safe but to caution against overexcitement/-anxiety/panic. Caution is good but it seems infection is not as easy or fast as mainstream media are touting atm.

Aw, shucks. I still haven't gotten around to watching that HBO documentary about Elizabeth Holmes.

At this rate maybe they'll have already produced something about the backstory of Adam Neumann + WeWork (who will at that point probably be in prison?) before I get around to watching the Theranos one.
> I also encourage to look at all the business rushing to have online presence/sales. When online suddenly becomes the only way to sell your stuff… When online suddenly become the only way for you to teach new skills...

True, but selling implies buying...
Takes practice and ideally having an extra phone that you aren’t scared of bricking although every mistake I made last time was recoverable from and it started to make more sense.
What a cruel thing to say.
Hey Tom!

Can you outline how Cortex differs from some of the other available Prometheus backends?
They address this specifically in the article:

> Dedicated journalists and security researchers have also helped to identify pre-existing ones.

Sure, you could translate that as "more eyeballs have uncovered our sloppy security" if you'd like, but it doesn't strike me as dishonest.
Mazda waves hi. Touchscreens auto- disable when driving but buttons/ knobs are still usable to control it. Last I heard they wanted to move to a HUD system.
I don’t understand the 600$/week? Does everyone get that? Will it be back paid if my state doesn’t process me for weeks?

I don't think you really need to distinguish between industries at this point. It's all bad.
You might want to try Janus Gateway instead. It works fine on firefox, and is stable and reliable.

The only difference between Google and any other private company is that Google publicizes it's "experiments" early, most companies have the same rate of experiments being closed or even higher, they just keep them private. It makes more sense when you look at Google as an R&D company, than a finished product company
The two halves of the mold are put back together and the concrete is poured into the bottom. Once it's set, the mold is removed and the result is once piece.

This requires a to completely trust people to carry along their cell phone ("oops I forgot it"), and to trust people carrying their OWN cell phone ("Let me visit some enemies with the cell phone of my coughing friend to make them go to quarantine as soon as my friend is tested positive").

sick of hearing this silliness: https://www.ecodibergamo.it/stories/bergamo-citta/coronaviru... so yeah, they barely test half the dead people (which are still double the normal deaths...). And A LOT of covid patients means a lot of deaths as well, bc. at 1.3% (Diamond Princess, where people are still not through it/dying) to 5% letality, the thing IS BAD.
Our daycare here in NC has now stopped charging fees and I assume laid off / furloughed some staff because of it. I've not heard of them getting assistance but I've not researched it either. They had not decided to do that out of the gate and we were OK with still paying because my wife and I were still being paid and the employees at the daycare work very hard.

I'm sure it's higher in NYC but at ~$750 / month average it's a significant budget item in our house.

I don't know how far back it will help with old browsers. I'd need to test that and it will take awhile.

This is not the instructions to install Python.

Those are the instructions to teach anybody in any OS with any configuration to install python and deal with 3rd party dependencies.

E.G: if you are a Windows 10 user, instructions are 2 lines:

- install from the store

- run "py -X.Z" to start python

That's it.

The difficulty is to have general instructions for all cases, including packaging. Which is a problem with every scripting languages.
I hope so! Goutham is apply for incubation as we speak..
Zoom also use the Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) architecture. Or a central server that kind of "mix" streams and send them to all participants, if you will.

Jitsi Videobridge does this by receiving simulcast streams from each participant. This server individually picks out streams and qualities that will fit in each recipient's downstream pipe based on measured bandwidth and configured priorities (e.g. you could choose to give more bandwidth to those who are actively speaking, or shut down all but the last N speakers video streams).

Yes, the available network bandwith on a Jitsi Videobridge could be a bottleneck. Each meeting need to fit on a single bridge instance. However, using common servers connected at 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps, it shouldn't be any problem to have meetings with substantially more than 2-4 people. Say a HD stream from most webcameras outputs 3 Mbps at full blast, with 50% overhead due to the simulcasting. That's over 2000 participants on a single server connected at 10 Gbps, all receiving all video streams in full quality.

For meetings with 2 participants the streams run peer to peer, so here you get the best possible latency and quality.

We've set up Jitsi on a VPS instance at a nearby provider, and have not seen any problems with meetings of 10-15 people. Stability and performance also outperforms all the other solutions I've tried. There's currently a bug in Firefox's simulcast implementation, so if you have any participant using this browser, this feature gets disabled for everyone. Even with this issue, I haven't noticed anything but excellent performance with this few number of participants.

The following article might also be interesting.

Not a bad article but Phoenix is not "hands down the best web development framework that is out there".

It's quite great at what it does, and it's obviously technically well done, but it's also very not "battery included" so you have to shop around for a lot of things like Authentification/Authorization, i18n etc.

Also templating feels a bit old school. After using extends and blocks with Jinja2 and Twig the "layout that includes your action view" model feels so rigid and limited. It seems you can use render_existing/3 that would be equivalent to content_for in Rails but that's not that obvious to me

It's unfortunate because LiveView puts back server-side rendering on the map and it's exciting.

Absolutely fascinating, high-quality, deeply technical article with a healthy dose of nostalgia. I'd love to see more of this (even though we often have quite a bit!) on HN.

There's a lot to unpack in your comment. I disagree that the western world either hasn't faced or isn't currently facing the above issues.

Conventional efforts to strengthen voter enfranchisement address many of the points without the added stakes.

I don't see how the threats of underlying issues of crime and corruption are mitigated by making voting electronic. If thugs prey on voting stations and voters, it seems there are more apparent options available sans the added inherent risks to the voting system itself.
I see your point, but that's not how the terminology is typically used in product management.
But if it's not open source...?
HTTPS is point-to-point encryption. It's good for client <-> server communication.

If you need to send data to another client through the server, then HTTPS won't suffice. The server decrypts the data and then sends it to the other client via HTTPS.

So if there's more than two points (client <-> server <-> client) you'll need end-to-end encryption.
In-person and mail-in voting, at least in the USA, is already quite insecure. Its amazing to me that with all the consternation about Russian bots influencing our elections we would even consider moving them online without strongly bolstering the level of identity verification. However, the argument has been that authenticating voter identity is racist and disenfranchises poor voters. I dont see how these two thoughts can possibly be resolved in a way that gives everyone confidence in the election outcome, so trying to do seems like a recipe for violent protests. I am not looking forward to the aftermath of this election if the voting mechanisms are changed.
What if they implemented e2e encryption and open sourced the client code.

This will also depend on SIG o11y, the creation of which is currently being voted on by CNCF TOC. TOC vote is looking good and projects which have been in sandbox for some time are obvious candidates for early review.
> What you are looking for are monotonically increasing version numbers, which code names are definitely not.

They are not, but given that Intel seems to put them in their public information / marketing material, it seems like the "codenames" are being used as version numbers. If they were strictly internal-to-Intel I could see that POV, but that doesn't seem to be happening.

And the Intel's model numbers / SKUs also seem to be created from a random number generator. :)
Touché on second point, but who forgets their phone these days, really? I haven’t forgotten mine ever that I can remember.
Correct. Todays number isn't even much of a surprise, although it's still shocking to see. I thought the consensus estimate was way too low. Some analysts have been kicking around 20%-30% unemployment before this is all over.
It still doesn't go POST in a nice way like the jQuery API does BUT it is not worth bringing jQuery to the page just for making requests with slightly nicer syntax.
