Depends on who you ask. I’ve yet to see a study on this. I work as a consultant in a Swedish company and several of my colleagues stopped traveling to clients and insisted on working from home even before most countries shut down. This is now the policy for the entire company. Even if you don’t have an official lockdown many take their own precautions. Personally I’m not worried myself right now because of the precautions people take, but with more people relaxing and risk of more spread i do worry about the future and will probably have to do less of what I do now to reduce risk to people around me.
I'm not talking about a 10+ story apartment building in the middle of the city, I'm talking about replacing the low-density 4 bedroom houses in your safe suburban neighbourhood with high-rises, allowing for a much denser community which would enable you to walk to your grocery store, school, etc. instead of having to drive everywhere.

You could just as well surround the high-rise neighbourhood with a 5-metre high gate and have armed security guards patrolling everywhere if you'd like.

I've lived in both an American-style suburb and a development described above (minus the gates and security guard, Eastern Europe being exceptionally safe) and I much preferred the latter.
There is a global average infection rate. Of course it's just an average, but is representative of the growth of global cases. Of course you can arbitrarily divide this down from hundreds of epidemics to thousands of outbreaks, but we're talking about the global supply of the drug.

> It’s also dangerously wrong, but human nature, to look at the current state of epidemics and project their future state.

I'm sorry, but in the real world you have to make predictions in order to make decisions. If you never make predictions you can always be right, but then you'll always be useless.

> Epidemics that have been suppressed rather than extinguished resemble unstable explosives. Just because they’re sitting there nicely today doesn’t mean they won’t explode 3 seconds from now.

An "explosion" in that sense will still take weeks to become critical, giving you time to react, assuming you have testing and tracing capacity.

Of course it does, HTTP is never only server -> client - from preventing a passive eavesdropper from seeing what pages are being browsed on the server, cookies, UA fingerprinting etc. to active content modification in transit.
So you don't use the real deal (VS), naturally the experience suffers.
I have heard this reaction to this article a lot, but sorry, there is nothing in the C standard that says that objects should not overlap, except a rule that only apply to “lvalue = lvalue;” assignments and is not relevant here.

Plus on a some 32-bit ISA, a long long and a double only need to be aligned to 32-bit boundaries, so I note that in the made-up C rules that you are referring to, “basic type” is not very well defined.

> I believe this behavior is actually specified in the standard, actually,

> in the same section that defines the aliasing rules.

The strict aliasing rules are here:
https://port70.net/~nsz/c/c11/n1570.html#6.5p7

Go ahead and point to the rule that says that “basic types” cannot overlap with themselves.
I assumed from the headline that such was the case.

If the standard didn't allow this optimization then GCC would have to emit unaligned access instructions everywhere. If it did that then people who want C to be 'close to the machine' would be complaining about lackluster performance and calling for everything to be written in ASM.

The reality is that the abstract machine modeled by C is a long, long way from what modern CPUs actually do, and the C language standards committee seems to have little interest in extending their language

> Fundamentally, it looks like most cities are living "paycheck to paycheck" like a good part of US..

Governments in general (and the departments/agencies thereof) tend to live "paycheck to paycheck" specifically because they're typically discouraged from saving a whole lot of money; there's almost always a "spend it or lose it" mentality (whether informal or actually codified in budget policies) that instead encourages spending every last penny of funding received lest whoever's in charge of the budget decide "well they're running leaner than expected so let's slash the budget to what they're actually spending and turn that into a tax break".

I limit our employees work to 40 hours a week so we don't have burn out. I want people to work hard and then go home.

So far, so good: Our employees are constantly coming up with better ways of doing things - with less stress, hassle, and annoyance. Over the last three years, our works has gone from suffering 40 hours to an enjoyable but hard-working 40 hours. Our retention rate has gone from 40% to 95%.
Fine, change it to "has always" if that makes you feel better. I don't think we've reached the apex of our technological prowess so I assume our productivity will continue to improve, but if you want to make a different assumption feel free to do so

Could you clarify which clause of the C standard you are referring to when you say “due to aliasing, not due to alignment”?

I make sense of the C standard for a living (this is literally my day job) and I do not see what clause of the C standard you are referring to. It would be very useful to me to know which clause you are referring to, and I would be eternally thankful.
There is a strong recommendation that high schools and universities handle their education remotely.

This recommendation is followed. The Swedish government cannot order schools to be closed (a law was quickly put in place in the case that this be necessary. I'm not sure that it pertains to universities, though).
Running four processes with GOMAXPROCS=1 is strictly worse than 1 process with GOMAXPROCS=4. The difference is coarse-vs-fine grained parallelism. Notably, a WSGI+gevent system doesn't allow you to do parallelism within a request, not to mention configuring these WSGI implementations (especially for production) is a bunch of extra headache for which there is no analogy in Go.

In other words, the standard numbering has the nice property that two pins with a consecutive id number are always relatively close to eachother (whatever the package).
I would argue that this is a bug and should probably be fixed in a future C/C++ standard that allows declaring misaligned types. Something like "members of a packed struct have [[aligned(1)]] attribute and cannot be converted to a pointer type with different alignment except with a reinterpret_cast", so you'd have to do

uint32_t [[aligned(1)]]*intValues = myPackedStruct.intValues;

Would be nice if we also got e.g. float/intNua_t for unaligned types. Any code that gets broken by this change was broken to begin with.

Deleting a private repository

When you delete a private repository, all of its private forks are also deleted.

Deleting a public repository

When you delete a public repository, one of the existing public forks is chosen to be the new parent repository. All other repositories are forked off of this new parent and subsequent pull requests go to this new parent.

Well, yes, effectively. By turning all the incoming light (including red, green and blue, and the non-visible spectrum, given a solar cell that's sensitive to it) into electricity and using that electricity to power a grow light. I'm not saying that it's a feasible way to get more energy flux into the plants this way; I think it's unlikely. But that's theoretically a way to do it.

If on the other hand you emit light on the same spectrum as you receive it, then it's impossible to generate more flux, even in theory.
Thank you, so in the very end, you must go through a service of some kind to make this possible? Not arsed about security.
With asyncio, your whole app falls over if you accidentally call a library function that makes a sync API call under the covers. gevent (as I understand it; haven't actually used it) will patch all sync APIs and make them async. Also, if you do `aiohttp.get("www.example.com/foo.json").json()", you get a TypeError because coroutine has no method '.json()' (you forgot `await`) unless you're using Mypy.

> This is the government that did the Tuskegee experiment.

This is not even closed to comparable. So far off that I begin to suspect everything else you said.

The Tuskegee experiments were a limited horrible experiment undertaken by the US government fully aware of the fact that they were performing horrific experiments on the people in the study specifically to see how bad things would get.

The vaccines being rushed through trial are sourced from multiple labs in multiple countries with the hope they will help the entire population. The primarily role the US government plays is to ease the rules and to provide some funding. They are not pushing a particular vaccine, type of vaccine, the trial groups, or any of the other details.
Efficiently incurring is like having a high volume credit card that you constantly pay off: lots of cash moving through, but debt isn't building up.

Withstanding cumulative effects is like continually re-financing your home to pull more equity out: at some point you can't keep up, and the failure mode is catastrophic.
> In a survey of economists, only 8% supported legislation against price gouging. 51% were against. The economists opposing the proposal argued that such legislation would lead to a misallocation of resources and lead to lower supply and greater scarcity of the resources, or argued that the proposal in question was vague.

I wouldn't put too much stock in that survey. It was about a specific Connecticut law, it only included 40 economists, many chose not to answer, and many of the others took issue with some vagueness in the wording. Furthermore, I wouldn't blindly follow "economists" on any policy matter. Sure, their ideas have some merit, but their discipline has its biases, too.

> The advantages show the Soviet Union industrializing... while starving to death because the central planners did not have infinite knowledge, which the central planning idea requires.

Oh, please. Anti-price gauging legislation is not central planning. It's pretty weak to trot out the Soviet Union to refute anything but the purest capitalism.

We decided to take a year to go heads down and rework a lot of stuff, so we did get publicly stagnant but we're fulltime on the next version and should release a public beta soon. I tweet a lot about our progress if you can sort through my sillier tweets (@pfrazee).

Past year has had a lot of improvements

- Protocol moved to a hole-punching DHT for peer discovery (hyperswarm).

- Protocol now scales # of writes and # of files much better. We were able to put a Wikipedia export, which is millions of files in 2 flat dirs, into a single "drive" and get good read performance. This performance bump came from an indexing structure that's built into every log entry (hypertrie).

- Protocol now supports "mounting" which is a way to basically symlink drives onto each other. Good composition tool, esp useful for mounting deps in a /vendor directory.

- Browser now has a builtin editor that splits the screen for live editing. Feels similar to hackmd.

- Browser added a bash-like terminal for working with the protocol's filespace. It's glued to the current page so you can drive around the web using `cd`.

- Browser added a basic identity system. Every user has a profile site that's created automatically and maintains an address book of other users.

- We built out application tooling a fair amount. It's fairly easy to build multi-user apps now, where previously it was a bit of rocket surgery.

Some of the year was spent prototyping ideas and throwing them away as well. A bit inefficient, but helped us learn.
How do you figure? Go's packaging is wayyyy better than Python's. I've done considerable work with each and while Go's ecosystem has warts here and there, it's far from disastrous. I can't say that about Python.

If nothing else, Go lets you distribute a static binary with everything built in, including the runtime. Python's closest analog is PEX files, but these don't include the runtime and often require you to have the right `.so` files installed on your system, and they also don't work with libraries that assume they are unpacked to the system packages directory or similar. In general, it also takes much longer to build a PEX file than to compile a Go project. Unfortunately, PEX files aren't even very common in the Python ecosystem.
I'm pretty sure I had (have?) a mild case of Covid for 12-14 days or so. During the first week of symptoms I had wild dreams, which I remembered all of. I've taken no medication (that includes things like Robitussin, Nyquil).

I might remember one dream per month on average. It's not common for me. With this, I remembered dreams almost every night. And they were surreal, vivid, very strange.

I think it's because the body is reacting to an unusual infection. So called fever dreams from an infection are a normal thing. A high fever would explain it, however I never developed a high fever. There was a change in my sleep pattern, as for 4-5 of those days I slept for extended periods of time due to exhaustion (over two bad symptom days, I slept for 12 hours per day; normal is seven hours for me).

My symptoms were sore throat, mild fever, general sick feeling, some abnormal pressure in my chest, light congestion. I only had a light cough for two days. This all went on for two weeks, with gyrations in the severity (one day I'd feel ~80% normal, then stronger symptoms would return the next day; on and on it went; two of the days I felt sick enough to nearly go to the hospital (I decided to test only if my fever got to a certain line; now I might do a blood test after the fact)).

To put it into context, I haven't had a sore throat in six years; maybe one sore throat in a decade. I haven't had the flu in nearly 20 years. I get about one mild cold per year, which lasts a few days. I haven't been sick longer than roughly five or six days in my lifetime. Odds are it was the SARS-CoV-2 virus (I also had a prominent source exposure, a healthcare worker I know that has been xray'ing Covid patients).

The dreams have disappeared now and I mostly feel better. My dreaming pattern is back to not remembering anything.
So would I, to see the really out there suggestions. The obvious answer is some variation of "just put it on a boat", but come on folks let's get creative!

I like the Golden Ratio approach (b+a : b as b:a). So you get a simple 5-3-2-1 approach

for your pricing plans. Or I guess

125 - 74 - 49

It's just easier to remember a fibonacci sequence than worry about marketing research.

What surprises me however is the reverse ordering

'''Reordering the pricing table in descending order from fastest/most expensive to lowest/cheapest resulted in a 14.9% increase in overall orders.'''

I am not sure this carries from pricing - I recently bought a new ISP connection at home (lockdown, plus fibre to house suddenly became available). I went for the most expensive- partly because the feature set was easily rankable. I could get 300, 600 or 1Gb - so going for the top level seemed easy (plus lockdown panic).

But with features that don't rank (a book, a book with video course, a book with two hour consult with author), suddenly I am not comparing the same feature (download speed) but more of it, I am having to ask do I want this extra feature at all - i am in effect not making a pricing decision but making a feature choice decision, proxied by price.

So I am not sure the research carries over. And that leads me back to the easy version of use the fib.
This demo is not informative as to the readiness for scalable L4 deployment, for which it would be necessary to focus on the breadth/accuracy of perception features under the hood of intent prediction and what happens at the tail end with arbitrary situations that occur in urban driving environments.
The point is that the fault recovery is delegated up for handling at the array controller level, rather than being processed by the drive.

IMO this looks to by a symptom of lack of testing. Overall the ratio of tests coming back positive is unchanged:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lettergram/covid19-analysi...

Even though we are doing more tests. Meaning the reduction in speed-of-spread likely has more to do with lack of testing.

That being said, I’m sure spread is being reduced, we just don’t know to what extent because we don’t have enough effective testing.

It’s also possible (probably likely) our tests are not exceptionally accurate. It’s the best we have, but given all of this is <6 months old the false positive/negative rate can be high.

Generally, Testing isn’t an effective way to measure spread. Probably we should use “hospitalizations with flu symptoms“ as the best indicator.
