That antibody timeline was an estimate derived from data obtained from the "original" SARS virus, but it isn't accurate with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. IgM antibodies are present within hours of the onset of symptoms, and IgG antibodies after a few days.
"every bag of groceries is going to be covered in COVID"

Just as a random factoid, somewhere I was just reading that someone was doing testing of surfaces in a hospital, and on average they found maybe 80% contaminated with the virus, but the floor of the pharmacy was 100% even though no patients had been in there...
I'm not sure many people believe they are grassroots, but they certainly present themselves as grassroots. Each site claims to be an independent association of local businesses rather than a centralized organization from one bankroller.

Is it "grassroots?" Surely we can less authentic than if it was organized by genuine residents of that state's population, no?
Ok, so your claim is that one org representing two states could not poll and get local comments from actual people in those two states?

Edit: can’t reply to claim below but have yet to see any evidence this isn’t an authentic org that represents two states. Why can leadership of this org not be people from these states?
Would that have made all the sites not be opened by one actor?
Are the images super small for everyone else too?
Why countries can’t meet the demand for gear against Covid-19
I would love to bound the death rate, both lower and upper, ideally by age group. Right now I'm torn between 'it's a nasty flu, soldier up' vs. 'it's a supernasty disease that's going to severely upend life once it becomes endemic'. With the caveat that, given how easy it spreads, we might not be able to realistically do anything to prevent it becoming endemic.

Would you please be able to expand on the 'seasonal flu' point you made?
Now if only I could actually find a webcam somewhere to use with my desktop that has a 2080 Ti.
Looks like you're right. From an article in the Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/film/1999/jan/05/features):

"Aronofsky was inspired by such real-life pi-chasers as the Russian mathematician brothers Chudnovski who built a supercomputer in their own cramped Manhattan apartment and calculated pi to two billion digits. But most people don't look for patterns in pi, he says: 'You basically use it to test the speed of a supercomputer. The brothers called me a quack - they told me there's no pattern.'"
I completely agree with you that the culture isn't for everyone. Many towns lack basic government services like trash pickup and public utilities, likely due to the reduced taxes (I haven't done a comparison, so this is just a guess). I was mostly addressing the original poster. If he/she lives five miles from the border, I suspect that the culture doesn't differ much.

I guess Facebook has done some calculation about the potential fines/time sitting in congressional hearings in the aftermath of this versus revenue.

I think it is strange to criticise this move as suppressing free speech. If you value free speech you wouldn’t be using facebook, a for-profit venture controlled by a few people with their own agenda.
Is it for advertising or to create a "brand"?

I would outsource it a photographer or not be so hard on yourself because it takes copious amounts of effort for little return. Or you could seriously have fun with it and make it feel like a personal account which people would be more receptive to. Everyone knows an ad when they see an ad but every time you generate organic content, people watch because they like you as people. Does that make sense?
There's a certain limited amount of qualified research capacity representing a bottleneck. So, urgently doing more studies to refute one that has flaws and bias by the author isn't the right type of action to take if it will take resources from other, more productive endeavors.

Theorizing and gathering data is fine; going on to write a WSJ op-ed pushing it in a way you hope will influence policy goes a far step beyond proper scientific research protocols.
You answered your own question. When comparing estimated flu deaths to the overinflatted corona reported deaths. Do I really need to be so pedantic?

Vaccines existing for the flu is the point, COVID is way less deadly considering we don't_ have a vaccine.
This is so wonderful, as devloping rich interactive Slack apps can be a pain. Thanks for the work!
There's another version of this involving a whole lotta coal:

I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were also backed by the same organizers. It would match the push-pull dynamic I imagine I see with online controversy. Not to mention the reported activity on Facebook and elsewhere around the 2016 elections.
There is wide understanding it's a mess and that nations use different methods of counting Covid deaths. These are obvious things at this point in the pandemic.

It's not meaningless. The 20,000 death count in France is not likely to be missing another 50,000 deaths. If they're missing 5,000 deaths, the 20k scale is still extremely useful. In many of the hardest hit nations we can use these counts as floors if nothing else and go from there. It provides a very reasonable ballpark understanding of what's happening in many (not all) nations and states.

If a nation is reporting thousands of deaths, we know they're being hit by it - regardless of +/- counts - and can pay closer attention accordingly.
On the other hand, there’s some potential good that could come of it. Some people who’ve felt trapped in dead end jobs are getting new opportunities. Who knows if the good changes that result will outweigh the bad, though.
> there eventually won't be any children by the traditional racist definitions of white, ie, with white. no interbreeding with non European ancestry.

A very cool approach, well done.
Oh jeez, it's sanity-inducing to hear someone say all this. 100% agree. I'm jealous of all these people who rave about remote work. But every time I've tried working away from my coworkers, I've felt like a massive failure.

I'm mostly going to write this next bit in case it resonates with someone else, because reading your message made me feel validated, and I'd love to pay it forward :)

Back when I used to work in an office, even one day WFH would make me start to feel unhinged from my normal office reality. I'd come in, expecting people to be mad at me or disappointed in me for some minor thing -- or having something I'd felt frustrated with that I now needed to resolve -- all things that never happened when I'd work in-person. But when I'd come in on the day after, no one would ever be mad or disappointed with me as I'd thought they were, and if I asked, they'd say there was absolutely nothing to worry about.

It's something about my propensity for cycling on async communication when I can't get realtime feedback -- I'm so proud of my soft skills in-person, and I'm very tuned and empathic, but working remote... I freeze up, or misread signals or just feel apprehensive and make myself frustrated in seeking clarity, to the point of being a pain for myself or others.

Also, I'm much more accountable to myself when people are walking around me, and interrupting my distractions. Every mild "disruption" (even just a person passing through the room behind me) actually gives me a chance to recalibrate and refocus on my desired task.
There is also self-serving corruption.

Loyalty is required for any systematic, organised, group-based corruption, however.

If a country is unwilling to make reasonable accommodations for working people to vote, defending in-person protests during a global pandemic as necessary for said country's democracy is beyond parody.
The problem is that snopes is actually leftist so the "folks who need it most" would see right through their agenda.

Just like you see the obvious agenda of foxnews and others see the obvious agenda of msnbc/cnn/etc. But you are blind to the bias of msnbc/cnn/snopes/etc just like they are blind to foxnews/etc.

It's hilarious seeing the most brainwashed and biased people thinking they are on the side of "truth/logic/science/etc".

Whether you like it or not, all media is about pushing agenda/propaganda/etc. No media exists today and has ever existed to produce truth/facts/etc. The ones claiming to be the least biased or the ones you think are the least biased are actually the best at lying to you or deceiving you.

Media is about control. If you think there is a media outlet that is honest, then you are one of the duped individuals.
Sort of a difference without distinction given it still has the Fed part, which is a pretty common shorthand for things that are, well, federal.
Go in with an open mind and say "please tell me everything you hate about this product" and if they're shy keep poking. Could this be better? Is this easy to do? Would you naturally think this sequence would happen?

Inflammatory language is appropriate to describe an ongoing attempt to end the lives of millions of people.

It's necessary to point out that we live in a failed state because some of the solutions being presented are assuming some kind of capability which we have not come close to demonstrating.

It looks like we're going to have to kill quite a few poor people is fundamentally inflammatory, even when you act like you're discussing the best fruit flavor.

These are people being killed, right now, all around you, for no fucking reason. These are people whose lives have marginally MORE value than yours, we're talking about snuffing them out.
You must be new here. Usenet was already full of trolls in the 1990's. Trolling is shitty behavior and not to be condoned. But legally there is no victim unless they are specifically libelling or advocating violence against someone. I certainly wouldn't want law enforcement to chase trolls, because that would be a 1st Amendment violation and a waste of tax money.
Get a restraining order.
Starting a conventional or nuclear war with Russia is in the "not possible" category. Sorry if it wasn't clear that I'm not totally insane.

I am angry, however, and permanently dissuading Russian leaders from screwing with U.S. politics should be possible by both our intelligence services as well as overt policy.

People will literally be dying in the U.S. because of this latest Russian misinformation campaign. If we had a capable leader in the White House, this would be acknowledged and dealt with appropriately.
If the same thing did happen again a month from now, you'd surely make a lot of profit. But it might not, and that's the risk.

> I have no skin in this game and no strong opinion, but let's be honest -- lots of people were expecting total disaster in Sweden since they decided not to implement lockdown, but so far their daily cases chart looks not that different from other nordic countries.

For most people in NY that would have effectively been quarantine already - ignoring entirely that many essential workers in NY have to use the subway even now.

The general theme is everyone should have shut down earlier, and not let people say “the economy!”.
This is probably going to be unpopular, but whichever stack helps you ship fastest. If you're deploying microservices as a brand-new startup, you're absolutely doing it wrong.

Like others have mentioned, React+TS on the frontend is a great start. On the backend it depends on how technical your team is but Laravel/PHP or Node+TS is easy.

The best stack is the one you can actually ship fast. If your v1 isn't a messy disaster, then you're moving way too slowly.
We should add the fact that a lot of people in Sweden live alone.
Any futures market provides calendar spreads as well, which represent a price differential between two dates (think: CLK0 is the May contract, CLMO is the June contract, and CLK0-CLM0 is the difference between the two). CME's systems should trivially handle negative prices because they already have spreads, which are frequently negative.
I'd actually be interested in engaging with people who are able to point out logical errors in my statements. It's educational. If you think I have logical errors, you're welcome to point them out. But your emotions may prevent you from being able to have a productive discussion.

Your professor is right that it's not nice for any single party, including the NPS, to have overt control over a company. The same logic would apply to a chaebol having overt control too. The point isn't whether a prominent professor says something. It's whether the logic and data make sense. This guy's logic and data made sense to me. How is Korea supposed to create a new world class company like Apple, Amazon, Tesla, you-name-it if the chaebols manipulate and raid them before they have a chance to grow? Apple, Amazon, and Tesla all once were startups, but they were allowed to compete. Besides many other success stories.

If Korea is unable to replace an unprofitable chaebol with profitable companies through natural competition, Korea's people are less capable than I'd believe them to be. If a company is unprofitable and the government needs to prop it up, it is not a net positive for the economy. This is simple math, and I fear you are letting your emotions and political preferences prevent you from understanding that. Profitable competent companies are always better than unprofitable incompetent companies.
Maybe I am too dumb or naive but for me, all these cases of censorship/deplatforming etc come down to answering one simple question? Is this post/tweet legal? Yes? Carry on.

Interesting tip, I will try it.

The worst thing about the inner voice is it's not just when reading, it won't be quiet at bed time. And I have a tendency to complete thoughts as words. Even if I know where it is leading, and what the conclusion is, it feels like I have to see it through and phrase it correctly in my head. I feel very uncomfortable leaving it hanging.

This is crap, it's extensive farming that's the problem.

How could you think a 'factory' where all variable are measured and industrialised is worse than small hold farmers who run animals over large areas mixed with wildlife?

Could you image small hold farmers being able to do random testing at appropriate intervals compared to a factory with $100 million on the line.

What Explainable AI fails to explain (and how we fix that)
I hate that the word “conspiracy” is now lobbed at others to immediately invalidate what they have to say, even with evidence.

Did you skim through Bogan’s op-ed? He references the study without ever mentioning once that he played a role in it (no matter how small it was).

You don’t need a tin foil hat to ask yourself what incentives a hedge fund manager would have in downplaying the severity of the virus by participating in the creation and media distribution of a study that does exactly that.
The market is much more interested in Linux/Windows versions. But I guess they still want you to buy the hardware/OS to get the full living-in-the-Apple ecosystem experience to inform what you create for your users.

You're talking about this as if a "calculated risk" is limited to that individual, but it's not. Someone's "calculated risk" is literally death knell for others.

In this case, the health of the society as a whole is at stake. Therefore, people need to collectively follow rules, and understand that minor inconveniences such as not being able to get a haircut will only affect them for a few weeks or months.
Oil deposits are permeable rock with a mix of oil and water in the pores. Pumping oil down into such a formation would be slow and expensive. It would also take different equipment from that which is there at the wellheads now, so you couldn't get started right away.
It looks like Anki cards. I also value spaced repetition to help me store valuable facts in my long term memory.

I personally use my Todoist for that (Project called "Anki" where every todo is a question and the answer is in the comments. And I can manage intervals by using the task scheduling feature to have them appear later (depending on the ease to remind the answer).

But I like the simplicity of your app and the logo is kinda cool also. +1 for the command line interface. Good idea.

> People who want to work remotely are going to want everyone to work remote so that they aren't disadvantaged when it comes to those things, but then we are left with the problem of one group forcing their way of working on the other group.

Ah, really great point. Hadn't considered that
Is it though? Why declare publicly at all then? You’d just be giving the impression that when you do collect the data you’d be cherry picking, exactly like what’s happening here.
Citation? I believe you of course. I just would like to see the evidence for all of this.

Edit: no, apparently no citation is coming. Wild claims, no sources. Just blame Fox News the one mostly conservative outlet compared to the hundred counterparts like it’s still 2008
On top of raw counts, we'll surely discover that somebody is using a tanker "unfit for purpose" because of the high demand for tankers.

Yah, Julia follows the lisp-y tradition of defining numerical in the language. All the built-in types are defined in Julia. Check out https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/381693d3dfc9b7072707...

Still for interactive things it can be a bit slow still. I’d recommend using repl/notebooks. Good luck!
That's true for the OS, but as an application vmware products are perfectly happy to be interacted with via PowerCLI. And if you're still running an older version with that godforsaken flash interface it's really preferable.
Fundamental JavaScript Concepts Explained Simply

They want money and aren't as socialized as you.
1 month of salary for a phone!? Wow, that sounds really expensive. I would think people would prefer to buy used phones from US/Europe instead at a discount.
Standard scientific research protocols are heavily biased towards inaction. We can't afford that bias in the middle of a global emergency; it matters a lot if necessary action gets delayed for a month or even a week. Imagine how bad things would have gotten if we had made the same demands a month ago - if we had refused to institute social distancing until randomized controlled trials proved it helped for this disease.
Clever, nice work. Always fun to see JSX being used for more than rendering DOM nodes.
Facebook is a corporation that can make decisions based on what they believe the shareholders would want.

To simply throw out their rights to control their platform is anti-civil liberties and anti-democracy as well.

If you and others do not want to visit Facebook that's your right and your right to publicize, they do not owe you or me, anything.

If it turns out more people agree with you, Facebook will feel it with their stock price and most likely make adjustments. To say that they owe the public a free-space, is a leap if not a huge jump..
There’s clearly a lot of false negatives produced by the PCR testing we’re doing nationwide.
I read the links, and like I said in the original comment, I think it's very disingenuous to equate "national political organization with real human supporters" with "artificial or paid shills"

You could use that logic to brand the ACLU or other civil rights organizations "astroturfers", because they are trying to coordinate or bootstrap local movements. Do you think that Black Lives Matter protests have to independently, randomly coalesce in cities for them to be real movements? Obviously not. Social change is hard, and claiming "oh, but there's someone out-of-state helping them organize" is just a cheap way to invalidate any protest you don't like.

It's no better than Putin branding all NGOs as "foreign agents", to trash any civil society the Kremlin doesn't like. We can do better.
Pelosi blocked that.

The workaround is to cheaply rent out the reserve as storage space, with the hope that someday a better congress will allow purchasing the oil.

Secure by Default Postgres Docker Container for Development
In this post I will explain how to provide a secure postgres server docker container. This is useful when developing certain applications, for example a Django application. You can only run a this script and it will automatically detect if an old version of the container exists, delete it and deploy a new one. Or just to deploy a quick and secure by default postgres docker container. The limit is your imagination!
