This is the workflow when I want to watch something at night while I fall asleep. It would get lost in the sheets, or under the bed, or similar.

That doesn't happen to my £5 ear phone because it's connected to my phone, which itself is connected to the mains.
NYC has something like 15x the death rate per capita of the the US ex-NYC. Even if you think that NYC is approaching herd immunity (debatable), that means the rest of the country is only 5-10% of the way there.
I can’t say I have a decent justification off hand myself—this was the impression I had when digging through a comparison of the two softwares about a year back. Cgroups appears to have a much more detail laden implementation, but this could be explained away with my lack of Linux internals.
Yea. You can't beat the physics of big optics... but there ARE ways to get around some of the limitations of smaller optics.

You can fake depth of field, use image stabilization and image stacking to gather more light with a smaller aperture, utilize "super resolution" and/or neural network techniques to get or fake more detail, etc.

I'd love to see some of the awesome work being put into phones carry over into full-frame cameras before the whole pro-sumer market and a bunch of the pro market dissolve.
I haven't used teams, but from my experience Outlook's scheduling assistant just shows you a few open time slots. The biggest problem is when there aren't any acceptable open slots within a reasonable window into the future (e.g., this week), and the only way to make the meeting happen is to move stuff around. This then becomes pretty problematic if you have to start asking other folks if they can move conflicts around.

(I don't know to what extent Zynq resolves these issues.)
Yes, and more traditional culture heavily discourages oaths and swearing in trivial matters, not to water them down (and no to bother the deity). I think also the Third Commandment is interpreted in this way.

On the other hand, Middle Ages knew original oaths such as swearing on the roasted pheasant on the table.

At this early stage in attempts at even semi-autonomous driving, I fully accept that if I purchase a vehicle with the sensor array, at least that manufacturer is going to get a whole bunch of data on my typical route and driving habits. Since that data is going to ideally make the round trip into their training networks and back into safety updates for that vehicle, this seems like a fair exchange. I would be upset to hear about unethical handling of the data, but I'm not surprised that it is collected. This tech desperately needs large amounts of data for research and development. It's in a totally different space from, say, Windows telemetry, where the utility of the data outside of advertising is questionable.
I think DataDog does this. I've vowed to never advocate for their products because of their relentless salespeople and however they got a hold of both my business and personal emails.

We'll see with the U of Minnesota trial, which attempts to use it as post-exposure prophylaxis. Data (hopefully) will tell us.

On favipiravir, the data on the Chinese study wasn't exceptional, but wasn't that bad either. Perhaps the Japanese phase 3 study will be more enlightening.

Everybody knows this, but the US healthcare system was so unprepared for this that there simply weren't (aren't) enough test kits around to do a proper study. Even people who have the symptoms struggle to find a place that will test them in some cities.

He's talking about being continuously at sea, which is close to the limit for a fast attack.

The real limit is based on how much food can be carried. I was once out for 50+ days and we had to stack food up in the passageways before we left to make it that long. Near the end, it's just chicken nuggets and bread everyday.

On a normal fast attack deployment, you pull in every month or so to get more food.

You accept the validity of arguments based on who the speaker is, I accept them based on the documentation.

You can say he is bitter or a nutcase, it does not make it so.

About the video, so far you are only able to say that laowhy86 is a youtuber, and therefore he wrong.

So far I've said that the documents linked in the video description corroborates the theory, making this theory credible.

How long will you continue to shoot the messengers instead of listening to what is said? Apart saying gratuitously that youtubers cannot possibily be right, you have not addressed the content of the video. I guess when you can't criticize the content, criticize the form, it is easier.

I will stop now, because I believe you are not writing in good faith. If a youtuber's documented demonstration does not deserve anyone's consideration by nature, because he is necessarily wrong, then certainly by your logic, as stranger writing on hacker news, you don't either deserve anyone's consideration, and you are wrong too.
You are speaking with a representation theorist, too. It seems to me that we agree on the definition. (I agree that I was writing as if `R` were automatically commutative, after having made a big fuss about the possibility that it wasn't. Incidentally, if you feel insufficiently scarred, you might like to expand your stable of algebras: there is the notion of a coalgebra, which is dual to that of an algebra; and I believe that the usual notion of bialgebra is of a ring equipped with the structure both of an algebra and a coalgebra: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bialgebra ; but maybe it's different in the world of algebras over non-commutative rings, which is not my speciality. Then among the bialgebras are the Hopf algebras, etc.)

This is a question as old as religion, of course, with plenty of answers of all sorts: because He has a plan we cannot see, because He is punishing you/us/him, because He is testing you/us, because The Evil is really responsible, etc etc...

In the end, is it really that cruel, when compared to creating a universe that is effectively trying to kill us all every single day...? From animals and plants in the jungle, to solar flares and asteroids, everything in nature is to us what a garrison of armed Stormtroopers is to Han Solo: they might miss most of the time, but it’s not going to be for lack of cruelty or intent.
What a nice article, that touches on a couple of issues in solar physics:

o Because you have a big object, and a lot of photons, it's possible for amateur or less-equipped astronomers/departments to make a significant contribution. You can do a lot with a sub-1m telescope in a good location.

o The solar cycle is 11 years, so in the career of a solar physicist, they might see 3 full solar cycles. You might work for a decade to get an instrument in orbit to observe, and see a solar cycle that is kind of underwhelming (like the just-ended solar cycle 24).

o Given the above (time scale of instruments vs. Sun), there is a hard inter-calibration problem of critical time series like activity or irradiance. You need to keep consistent daily measurements over decadal time scales. This timebase spans the observing lifetime of telescopes, people, and even groups of people -- university groups come and go over a 30-year time span.

Sunspot and active region determination is automated now, of course -- but this kind of historical record is really important. And, just because it's automated for one instrument, does not mean this carries over to the next one with different spatial resolution and spectral/temporal sampling.

This whole debate is insane to me -- some people that so-called "experts" don't like mentioned HCQ as a possible treatment for coronavirus, and we've ended up in some bizarro world where everyone is shouting and fingers are being pointed over something that really shouldn't be controversial or perceived as some sinister plot to destroy clever society.

1. HCQ has been used for many decades

2. The side effects are generally known

3. It may have a positive impact on COVID-19, and it may not.

4. Nobody is suggesting long term high doses for anyone, COVID patients or otherwise.

5. If people are severe patients of COVID-19, this should certainly be tried as a treatment as long as the patient (or immediate family) is briefed on the potential side effects. The alternative, potential death, makes this a worthy discussion for a doctor/patient to have, with families being allowed to err on the side of right-to-try. HCQ is cheap, available, and has been used for decades.

The fact that "no evidence HCQ works!!" has 200 points of upvotes and counting when the sample size for this study is 181 patients only just shows how high the temperature has become.

Everyone just calm down. As capnrefsmmat has eloquently pointed out, "absence of evidence" does not mean "evidence of absence".

Results We were unable to identify any randomised controlled trials of parachute intervention.

Conclusions As with many interventions intended to prevent ill health, the effectiveness of parachutes has not been subjected to rigorous evaluation by using randomised controlled trials. Advocates of evidence based medicine have criticised the adoption of interventions evaluated by using only observational data. We think that everyone might benefit if the most radical protagonists of evidence based medicine organised and participated in a double blind, randomised, placebo controlled, crossover trial of the parachute.
Apple starts selling Mac Pro wheels for $699 and feet for $299
>>but not sure that'll be possible (maybe I can borrow somebody's iPhone 8).

My SE broke recently and I had to switch to iPhone 8 (They stopped selling SE by then in India). I am able to manage but the form factor is no where as comfortable as the old SE.

>> Price point is, admittedly, fantastic

True for the developed nations but still on the higher side for India and South East Asia. If they could price it at 299 in India it will sell like hot cakes here but iPhone always misses the bus here in India.
I would rather be on the ISS, I think. The ISS has (tiny) windows with great views and more room per person (about 150m³ per astronaut).

I also think its inhabitants have more of a sense of being blessed to be allowed to be there. That helps, psychologically.
COVID-19 is obviously very scary and I fully understand why we'd want to lessen some restrictions to allow novel treatments to be tried. But as bad as things are, I think people underestimate how much worse they could be if aren't careful when easing those restrictions. There seems to be a mentality that people are going to die anyway so we should be trying anything. That seems to underestimate the potential to make things worse, not just in terms of deaths but also in terms of quality of life for patients.
wow, I plan to study history at some point. Is it possible to study part time, do you think?
Or the majority were presymptomatic. They don't give a timeline of how long after the first cases in the cluster were detected that the testing took place, so these individuals might have been in the first week of the infection.
7 years in the industry here. Did not quit get but looking for a way out. My experience in the industry (France) is that I never met a company that seemed to know what they were doing. I feel like there is this whole industry of mediocre skills building software badly again and again and again. Same mistakes same "great ideas", same maturity as High schoolers. I mean I've worked with aircraft engineer, the difference in maturity and skill is astounding.

Well my case is biased of course by my limites experience but that experience really bums me out.
"Threat" is a one of the biggest weasel words I see used by the media to influence their readers. If the subject of the article is meant to be sympathetic, the media will instead use the word "warn" which is more neutral. If the subject is meant to be a villain, they'll use "threat" since it has a connotation of violence.

This headline could have easily been written as "Amazon states it may suspend French deliveries ..." but that doesn't portray Amazon as negatively as the author wanted. Amazon is meant to be the villain in this article.
I'm well aware of what the GDPR actually says, thanks. I was the one quoting it.

My point is that what it actually says, unlike the definition of personal data you gave, clearly goes beyond just the identifying information.

Moreover, there was also clear intent, reflected in the provisions of the GDPR itself and in statements by officials involved in writing and interpreting it at EU level, for the safeguards on data portability and erasure to cover exactly the sort of data we are talking about with a service like Trello.

I'm not aware of any action so far that has actually tested this, but if a national regulator chose not to penalise flagrant non-compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the GDPR such as we see in this case in response to a genuine complaint, it simply wouldn't be doing its job, since it would essentially be unilaterally deciding that entire articles of the GDPR are pointless.

This certainly isn't beyond the bounds of possibility. Indeed, the vague nature of the GDPR in many respects and the reliance on subjective interpretation by all the different national regulators was one of the big criticisms that I and others made at the time it was introduced. But if that happened here and the regulators chose not to enforce in a situation like this, it really would turn the GDPR into a bit of a joke.
Luxottica is an unusual case. Most monopolies aren't that durable and Luxottica has challengers now. Also, the law in the US which says you can't buy glasses unless you have had an eye-exam in the past year is an anomaly amongst nations.

The functionality delivered by products is not screwing people unless you're talking about surveillence capitalism ala Google et.al. Capitalism and the pricing of goods is how we incentivize people to bring things to market and more importantly how we allocate resources. No one, anywhere, through any scheme has ever replaced the market for performing these functions and thereby driving civilization and invention forwards.

People keep believing they can (socialism/Venezuela), or give up on the project entirely after decades of trying (communism/ China / Russia). Maybe one day someone out there qwill have a genuinely new idea which works. Until then you have a right to feel good about contributing, in whatver little customer support / feature adder / managerial capacity you do, to the forward progress of society generally and the amazing, rocket-like increase in wealth absolutely everyone on this earth is experiencing relative to the past 30,000 years.

This matches what I've read, too. It's less about the virus during the later stages and more about the infected person's immune system. If they've entered a state of amplified immune response, colloquially called a "cytokine storm," organs are damaged when their cells are mistakenly attacked.

If you can moderate the immune system's reaction you can prevent significant damage. HCQ is useful for this type of immuno-suppression.

Here's a pre-print of an article from a few years back which talks about HCQ and cytokine storms:

For those who don't recognize the author, he is a well-known biochemist working in pharmaceuticals whose blogs are generally very well informed and well worth the read.

We already have lots of data that says this is not true. For instance, on the Diamond Princess, widespread testing of a confined group initially found many asymptomatic infections, but the majority of those turned out to be pre-symptomatic, not asymptomatic.

Longer term follow-up found ~25% of infections were asymptomatic.

In the US, we're now doing significant amounts of testing, but we're still primarily testing only those with severe symptoms. Even limiting our sample to people presenting with severe matching symptoms of COVID-19, we're finding ~20% PCR-positive for SARS-CoV-2.

Beyond that, we also have good evidence that the Basic Reproduction Number is somewhere between 2-3. Given a seeding of cases in mid-to-late January, even without social distancing measures, it would be unlikely to have 10% of the population infected yet.
> "fairly useless" here is over 60 fps average in the heavy titles and 90-110 fps in the multiplayer titles

You missed the point. The point was UB claimed the 9100F was 10% faster than a 2700X. In reality the 2700X absolutely massacres the 9100F in gaming performance. Higher average FPS, higher min FPS, etc...

Even the 1600AF trivially beats the 9100F.

> with a similar ratio of minimums as the 1600 AF (so no more or less prone to stutter).

1600 AF in Battlefield V: 126 average, 91 1% lows

9100F in Battlefield V: 116 average, 49 1% lows

That's not a similar ratio at all.

> Zen2 made a ~30% improvement over Zen1 in gaming performance

No it didn't. You're massively misrepresenting (or mis-remembering) Zen1's gaming performance.

https://tpucdn.com/review/amd-ryzen-7-3700x/images/relative-...

3.6ghz/4.4ghz boost 3700X is ~11% faster than the 3.6ghz/4ghz boost 1800X in 1080p gaming.

Even at 720p it's a 15% gap between those two, not 30% https://tpucdn.com/review/amd-ryzen-7-3700x/images/relative-...

> Zen1 especially was hot garbage in gaming, those thread-heavy titles aren't representative of its average performance.

No it wasn't. It lost to the equivalent Intel CPU, but it was far from bad. You could easily pair a Zen1 CPU with just about any GPU and never see a significant bottleneck. The exception being the absolute top-end. And, critically, if you had an older Intel quad core, like a 7600K, the Zen1/Zen+ CPUs were still an upgrade in gaming performance.

See for example at 1440p the gap between Zen1 & Zen2 & Intel being almost nonexistent even with a 2080 Ti: https://tpucdn.com/review/amd-ryzen-7-3700x/images/relative-...

> Having 8 faster cores is still more desirable for gaming than 16 slower cores.

Of course, but you still need enough cores to avoid stuttering. Which means...

> And single-core performance is a good analogue of "per-core performance" so this number remains very relevant.

Is not correct at all. Single-core performance isn't an analogue of anything these days. You need a minimum number of cores and good single-core performance.

And it's not just HWUB with these conclusions that an i5 is no longer sufficient. Gamersnexus has the same recommendations: "In more games each year, we’re noticing the cut-down Core i5 exhibiting high frametime variability that counteracts its fleeting performance superiority with unreliable, stuttery behavior. The AMD R5 3600 is more reliable and consistent in its performance across all games we’ve tested, making it the better gaming option."

I love your mentality checkyoursudo. I started in civil/environmental engineering before getting into software development. For the past 5 years though I have been thinking about cognitive science in my free time and all of my idols are psychologists and neuroscientists. Might I ask where are you pursuing a masters in cog sci? This is exactly what I have wanted to do but the schools offering these programs are few from what I have seen. I'm in central florida currently.
I had heard 1/4 of the common cold are Coronaviruses. Thanks for clarifying here though. I tend to be very short on HN for practical purposes.
You're right – the iPhone 11 is larger than I understood. I haven't bought a phone since the SE so my Apple info is a little rusty. But for the other phones I mentioned, it's quite similar.

The tests might be inaccurate. Current antibody tests seem to conflate the common cold with covid-19, as they are both coronaviruses.
