Yes, precisely, they and many, many others. The Internet I want to nurture is the decentralized Internet that links millions of independent actors, rather than the walled-garden Internet of 3 cloud platforms. I am of course pleased to see also the big players supporting open technologies.

It is more difficult to measure the scale of deployments by individual domains with large numbers of users, as the numbers are not apparent in DNS, but these include comcast.net, web.de, gmx.de, ...

The inertia to overcome is enormous, and the deployment time scale will be comparable to IPv6, which is just starting to gain ground after 3 decades. No need to tighten your seatbelt, it's a long ride, but adoption is growing and even accelerating. It would be nice and not too surprising, to get from the current ~2.5% (11 million signed domains out of ~400 million overall) to >5% in the next few years.
Well I guess the question is: if desperate people might take the job, and the job is not sustainable for anyone but teenagers and retirees, should the job be allowed to exist seeing as it would not sustain the desperate person?
Just to clarify, the Apple/Google proposal discussed here does not require geo location (and I’d assume that you don’t have to give it access to location data).

The $40T Problem
Ah well, on Linux it really is night and day. One of my recent projects was to bring the no-change build time down from ~20 minutes. I managed to get it down to ~35 seconds and ccache was responsible for the majority of that speedup.
I took watched some of the lectures and did a few exercises when I had a similar course at University, it was great indeed.
But that's not at all a good fit for what he's doing with this.
Local impurity. The key insight is that mutation/impurity isn't necessarily bad in and of itself. The important thing is that it is guaranteed to not cross API boundaries -- this prevents abstractions from leaking at least one way, and lets you reason about the code as if it were pure. (And in fact, from the outside it is.)

This allows mutation to remain the performance optimisation it is, without allowing it to seep into the design of systems, which is where it causes badness.

As far as I know, Haskell is one of the few languages (if not the only one) that supports local mutation that is guaranteed to not be visible in any way to the caller.
They are using only d3
Yeah, sorry, I went for name recognition rather than accuracy or precision. You make very good points.
iPads do have a concept of multiple users, though only one can use it at once.
I can't blame the workers either. They are driven by incentives, so of course they'll fulfill their incentives. Expecting them to do the right thing without incentivizing them to do so doesn't effect any change. If you want to change them, change their incentives, whether through money, government regulation, or other.
I agree. It’s this simple. But it’s not so much playing politics as it is using common sense to work on things that make money or cut costs. Or writing code in a way that another team in the company can easily use.

Did this for two and a half years. My boss quit and took me with him to a better gig. Your network is your net worth.
See, you go into this thinking maybe "elbiahosting.sk" is a fluke, but no, "flexfilter.nl" and "tkservers.com" (whose home page redirects straight to a Roundcube login) are right there with them. Mailplatform.eu is DNSSEC-signed? Can Google Mail be far behind?

Essentially, you're going to be able to demonstrate that DNSSEC is widespread in Europe. I concede that readily. I absolutely believe DNSSEC has a long future as an idiosyncratic thing only European companies do.
The exponential curve is consistent with the exponential increase in testing.

If a stable 30% of a pop has X at any given time, and you test 10 people for X the first week, 100 the next week, 1000 the next week, etc. you will have a nice exponential curve of the number of cases while, in reality, nothing all that exciting is happening.

Have you seen a scary graph anywhere in the media that normalizes for the number of tests given? I haven't.
They changed their endpoints, too, i think.

The primary endpoint of the trial of moderate COVID-19 patients originally looked at the proportion of patients discharged by day 14. The trial of severe patients was assessing the normalization of fever and oxygen saturation through day 14.

Now, Gilead has changed all of those details. The trial of patients with severe COVID-19 has swelled in size from 400 subjects to 2,400 participants. Gilead dialed the enrollment target in the clinical trial of moderate COVID-19 patients up from 600 to 1,600.

The trials have new primary endpoints, too. In each case, Gilead has changed the primary endpoint to focus on the odds of improvement on a seven-point scale that runs from death to not hospitalized.

Create a Gauge with React.js
Right, but now you're talking about using mercenaries to fight a civil war and vie for power over a sovereign nation. That's much higher stakes than a cobalt mine. Mercenaries in air forces have existed, but usually in the form of hiring pilots and maintenance crews to operate aircraft owned by one of the belligerent nations. This is what occurred in the Eritrean-Ethiopian war. These countries brought up former Soviet aircraft and munitions following the end of the cold war, and also hired ex-soviet pilots and ground crews to operate them. But this is a significant war with hundreds of thousands of combatants on both sides.
Late, but wanted to point out: No, they can read but they also can't read too.
Just woke up (I am in Australia). I expect some harsh comments as the idea is controversial. To your specific points.

a) The post was intended for a lay audience, not other scientists directly. The reason I didn’t write a scientific paper on this is it would sink without a trace as most scientists and doctors are too conservative. It is quite a radical idea and while scientifically sound, it will take mavericks outside of science to see this done. For better or worse it will take the efforts of someone like on of the tech billionaires to push this forward.

b) If I had to choose one aspect that gets most commonly confused by people who read the idea it would be the reason for searching only mild/asymptomatic cases. This is purely an efficiency issue. In an ideal world we would sequence the strains in all cases, look to see if we can find mutants with deletions, and then see what was the clinical outcome of those infected with that strain. If we find that all cases of a particular mutant are mild/asymptomatic then we would have our candidate.

Because we live in a constrained world where it is not possible to sequence all cases, where should we first look? Since we are looking for a mutant that only causes mild/asymptomatic cases we can exclude patients with serious symptoms as a first pass. Once we find a candidate strain that has the right sort of mutation we can then sequence all cases in the local area, both serious and mild to get the full clinical picture. This will make the search much more efficient.

c) I am recommending that we put b) into action and get on with specifically looking for an attenuated (only causes mild disease) strain ASAP. If we find one then we can discuss what to do next, but the first step is to get started.

The good news is this can be done quickly and relatively cheaply provide we have the will and the support of someone with the clout to make it happen. It won’t be easy, but it can be done.
It's a great idea, although kind of pricey, like most E-Ink stuff. (E-Ink was supposed to be cheap, but that didn't work out.) You could probably sell some of these to executive offices.
I read this book few years ago:

I'm afraid that your post upthread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22834681) is an example. We don't need that sort of low-information, high-indignation arguing on inflammatory topics.
Besides the userspace oom killers mentioned in sibling comments make sure to run the most recent kernels. This issue has gotten some attention lately and improvements for specific workloads have trickled in over several releases and will probably continue to do so. Additionally some of the userspace solutions rely on the fairly new /proc/pressure interface.
You don’t need location gathering for this. All you do is store anonymous identifiers from people in the vicinity.
So you wrote a functional language... keep it that way.
Out of curiosity, what kind of syntax do you think would be better?
My goal is to find other freelancers to work alongside that have a similar work ethic. I want to find people who will collaborate and take ownership of a project on an equal level. Ideally people who aim to deliver not just a functioning "widget", but the best widget the client has ever seen.
Is there a difference between this and functional programming? It's odd that this article doesn't mention the entire branch of programming it is talking about.
I mean, just because you're technically exempt doesn't mean that building codes don't matter. It's still generally a pretty good starting point for how to build a safe structure that you shouldn't deviate from just for the heck of it.

Unless I misunderstood something, looks like Mark Begich bought KERX stock on 01/28/2013 for 1001$-15000$, sold at 01/30/2013 for 15001$-50000$.

KERX closing price on 01/28/2013 was 6.06, and 8.49 2 days later... Verified by looking at charts in https://www.barchart.com/stocks/quotes/KERX/interactive-char...

Indeed! Those HTREs in the lot were prototypes for this particular engine. The parking lot is for the Experimental Breeder Reactor I, the first reactor in the world to make electricity. It was cooled with sodium-potassium eutectic liquid metal. Really amazing museum now.
Many "obvious crisis" scenarios are only obvious with the benefit of hindsight from a view safely on the sidelines. Some people being sick in one city in China in November doesn't "obviously" lead to this.

If he had bought these on the black market, I’d say yes. But he didn’t, he bought them legally.
If they did PCR tests, and didn’t consider that N days (I don’t know the number) after infection you don’t have virus RNA anymore, they’re stupid. Really stupid. If they did think of it and now the guy claims this proves there was no virus flying around, he’s simply lying. Until shown otherwise, I will assume that the leading virologist in Germany and a respected public figure is neither stupid nor lying.
It doesn't bother you that you're checking `min is None` even after you know it can't be (i.e., after one loop iteration)? Python doesn't make it pretty to get around this issue:

def min(foo):
it = iter(foo)
try:
m = next(it)
except StopIteration:
return None

for val in it:
if val < m:
m = val

return m

They also mean "advertising opportunity in the face of ignorance."

Due to general systemic issues of incentives and disincentives to research (especially tied to profit driven entities but its everywhere) that are growing ever more problematic, successes are often painted more vibrant and failures toned down, usually through loose/generalized language in summaries or by adding so many quantifiable qualifiers to the situation/experiment at hand, the results become nearly useless.

Research is not incentivized to give unbiased truth of failures the way science should be. They focus on optimistic results and try to gloss over negative results (have to pay rent and keep eating).

The truth usually requires reading through a full paper because while forming narratives is commonplace, pure academic dishonesty is not. Research results typically do not forge or falsify results.

Even in a humanitarian perfect situation where Gilead is pushing the supply of this out for free, I can assure you managers and purse holders want to see positive results. If you're a research scientist working at Gilead, I highly suspect you're going to be encouraged to show positive optimistic results, not problems/shortcomings (as in most business environments). If you do show negative results, they won't see the light of day if they're even read by management.

ah thanks for that, haven't tested it in FireFox, will look into that now. Chrome works though.

The original bug report seems to be 12 (!) years old: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=440895
So the thing you put in your pocket with your hand has touched the door or button? That seems fairly not useful.

I figured it would at least have some sort of retraction mechanism that would hide the piece that touched the public surface.
Not a single one had one either :p
I most likely will write such a paper, but the first thing is to get those that can make this happen interested. They are not going to be reading a scientific paper.
He was asking about an issue on the Firefox bugzilla instance, not on the Jitsi side.

Not surprising to me, I've been using x2go for many years now and have hardly ever had it crash - I can't remember the last time but it is sure to have happened... I guess. I'm using it both within a LAN as well as over a VPN between countries. I'd say x2go make true on the promise of network-transparency which X11 gives in theory but which is hard to use in practice.
This press release has no medical significance. It is borderline irresponsible for Gilead to release such information, albeit they seem to have carefully qualified everything they say so as to avoid liability.
It very much comes off as a marketing piece. Heck, the name of the company splashes the page for several seconds before you even see the article. They say some things that aren't really wrong but also aren't really interesting, and it makes them sound like they Really Know What They're Talking About so that you'll pay them to build something for you.
Oh, I don't know; I think I can see what he means. The change would give additional point to the major theme of mortals taking on the burden of looking after themselves - of deciding their own course among the wonders, terrors, and banalities of the ever-unfolding future, instead of any longer relying on gods, demigods, and immortals to do so.

(If that's a theme you appreciate in LotR, then you may be interested to know it is also the theme closest to the heart of Babylon 5, and around which its story entirely revolves...)

Thanks for this response! And for what it's worth, I miss utopia, too - or utopianism, anyway. Blame the postmodernist insistence on engaging in dialogue with a work, if you like, or the wide contrarian streak in my nature; when I see something presented as if without cracks, I insist on looking for them all the harder, and always end up finding them, too.

Sometimes I wish I didn't; life would seem simpler that way, for sure. But Leonard Cohen was right: there is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in.
It’s absolutely none of those things. $300 for five years and a single executable to do the signing with.
If you personally weren't arguing that people should beware of a pandemic in November then for you hindsight is likely the entire time you've been discussing it.
How about adding keyboard controls? E.g. hold one of keyboard keys to talk, instead mouse button?
This is a great example of how people who use ad-hoc languages can get distorted views of how recursion should be denoted. No functional programmer in the universe would write something that looks like your recursive example.

Here are two recursive ways to write a min function:

Idiomatic and structured, using (Maybe . Min) monoid:

min = foldMap (Just . Min)

Incidentally, the above works on any data structure where this operation makes sense, not just lists, which is nice.

Unstructured, ad-hoc

minimum [] = Nothing
minimum (x:xs) = case minimum xs of Nothing -> Just x; Just y -> Just (min x y)

This latter doesn’t even rely on anything unique to functional programming ecosystems (like folds or principled algebraic classes).
As far as connecting to existing sessions goes, yes, RDP is closer to VNC to X11. In that respect only though: you can't also simultaneously use the same session locally unlike with VNC.

However, as far as the actual implementation goes, RDP is closer to X11 than VNC. VNC is basically a remote frame buffer, akin to streaming video. This makes it very cross platform friendly, but also IMO feels very slow, even on a local network. RDP is closer to X11 in that it sends display directives (AFAIK, please correct me if I'm wrong) so that it can draw them on the client as they would be drawn on the server. Think sending a "draw button" command rather than sending an image of pixels that are how the button would be rendered. This, combined with compression, helps make RDP feel very fast compared to VNC, and can be used very well even over the internet, unlike X11. I connect to RDP servers in Azure all the time and sometimes forget I'm not working locally, while with VNC you're always aware that it's not as performant.

I really wish there was something like RDP as a server for Linux. (OP seems to be a client AFAICT?) Given Microsoft's recent investment in Linux, maybe this will happen soon?
we're working on what you're describing with pingpong (https://usepingpong.com). all conversations are threaded, mostly geared for async but can be synchronous if desired. would love to get your feedback on it.
I wonder how would they do it? I believe the system would depend on human input.
That’s probably the worse example to use for your argument. Britain is a place where cops will come to your door to investigate over non-death threat tier posts on Twitter.
Do we know how they decided how to size the various stories?
Turning off overcommitting can break certain applications that relies on it. For example, the address sanitize allocates huge address spaces as shadow memory.

I do not think overcommitting is the problem. I believe the problem is Linux won't allow memory accesses to fail. It would stuck in a loop trying to free up memory, eventually triggers the oom killer.

It could have just let the memory access fail.
You could switch the order they're compared and due to short-circuiting the second eval would only ever take place once. Or initialize min to the zeroth item in the array.
Hey! Thanks for your feedback. The scripts aren't opensource. I'm a single founder, the project is 100% bootstrapped. Hope this answers your questions!
The fact that we nowadays attribute this to Bernays' shows how he was a master of his trade.
What was your actual point in this conversation? I took it as, "building is fun":

> No. I said building in general IS fun. That's my premise ;-)

Then I disagreed with that saying that building in itself is not necessarily fun, only building certain things is fun for certain people, which you seem to take issue with. I posed a counterfactual statement to your general rule, which means that your general rule cannot be true, as in propositional logic.

> Again, that's not been my direct experience nor the experience of other Software Engineers that I know who are building businesses.

> Most likely you think it's not fun for you. That doesn't mean it's not fun in general, to engineers. Maybe you've chatted about this, anecdotally, with other Software Engineers, maybe you've read some online threads and it's formed a cognitive bias. That's very typical. I can clearly see it in these very generic statements.

I said that in general, regardless of one's anecdotal experience, engineers tend towards building technology rather than business aspects like sales and marketing. Much as you disagree with me on anecdotal evidence, I also disagree with you. Whatever, seems to be a disagreement on principles, we can't convince each other.

But, regardless of our disagreements, please don't make statements like these:

> I'm sure you'll snap back with why I'm wrong. Maybe even sprinkle in some snark. Making sure to get the last word in. Please indulge yourself.

> It's now time for me to get back to having fun building my business as a software engineer :-)

When you engage in discourse, you are not above criticism or disagreement. Don't act holier than thou when someone disagrees with you. It harms the nature of argumentation, especially on fora like HN where it's expected more than other fora.
Fair, and thank you! Fwiw, I'd have aimed the shot at the 2003 Battlestar Galactica instead, where it is very much deserved. Wild that Ronald Moore, who wrote so much of what's best in TNG, could also produce something that's so grim for the sake of grimness...
Very nice. Testing on my iPhone 6s landscape, I noticed the prev and next buttons were not aligned with the book page.

Congrats ;) Yeah, that is very very different than what I've encountered over the years.
The reason why this should be able to advance faster than a normal vaccine approach is that we will have epidemiological data that it is safe in humans. Sure it would be nice to have double blinded placebo controlled data, but good epidemiology data is still data on which a regulatory decision could be made. In the current circumstances I think this will satisfy the regulators.
