Hi, Ankit here. Try once again perhaps? Might be a one time error.
Funny, my coworker convinced our workplace to build and stock a coffee bar with an espresso machine by the exact same reasoning. Top of the line equipment and sending him to barista training still cost far less than we were all spending at our local shops each month.
You could use the algorithms, just not their implementation of the algorithms. If you rewrote it from scratch, following their text (not their source code), you were fully allowed to use it.

Doesn't bluetooth give too many false positives anyway (with its range that is far greater than the required 6ft, and its ability to pierce walls?) And how will the general public respond to these false positives? I fear that the effect of a covid app will be somewhere between chaotic and useless.

What? Why? It literally is one.

People have experienced nearly full recovery from traumatic brain damage (pieces of brain missing etc) by quaffing Nordic Naturals Pro Omega 2000. The case I know of (used that brand) was under the care of medical professionals and documented (though I couldn't turn it by a quick search).

This might point you in a good direction though:

One thing I don't see mentioned and may have missed: if this is all (at least allegedly) anonymous and infection status is self-reported, what is to stop trolls and pranksters from marking themselves as "infected" and then going about their day in public/crowded spaces?

Seems like false connections could be spread more easily than the actual virus, no? I would hope this has been addressed somehow but if not, have you ever met people? People* will always figure out a way to break stuff given the opportunity.

Going one level up to https://adactio.com/journal shows a sparkline (with author's activity perhaps, the latest posting is entry 2666!) which has a feature I have never seen before: an audible graph. Clicking on the sparkline plays tones matching the data. Not particulary useful, but make me thing about using audio for presenting data (apparently "sonification" is a thing!)

The thing with Bloom/Cuckoo filters is that you can play around with the parameters and, for example, provide a set of filters for a day in such a way that the app users can do a binary search.

It never provides a false negative so all positives can download their set-up filters until they're satisfied.

The filter that DP3T are describing isn't that much bigger than the DTK set anyway.

It sounds like they were trying to do something, but it's just really hard to keep ahead of this thing. I think food work is just fundamentally less safe right now.
Indeed! I guess I was confused by the organization of the example[0] for that section. The physical section being first obscures all the examples of the logical block style so all you see is variations of:

border-top-color: tomato;
border-right-color: limegreen;
border-bottom-color: dodgerblue;
border-left-color: gold;

Looking back, my comment was more due to my own inability to visualize the simplicity of the logical properties as presented vs. what I've seen in other demonstrations and realizing that I lost sight of a resource that I think would be a helpful reference for myself as this new method becomes commonplace.

> hooks don't have an obvious context.

I mean, that's the whole point of hooks... they get the context of whatever host function scope they are in. That's why the 'reusable logic' spiel. So if you create a useLocalStorage hook, for example, you can then plug it into any function component and it will use. It's as if each function was an invisible class, with an invisible this.state

Look into firejail, see my sibling comment.

It does have a gui similar in spirit to what you are asking for but take a look and see if you can pitch in and help.
If my memory serve, we are talking about a government that would love to kill or backdoor crypto - all in the name of "stop the terrorists" and "protect the children", arguments that are also about saving lives.

People worry about their own privacy, but they should worry about the protection of people engaged in politics - not (only) political activists but (also) "professional" politicians.

These data is an absolutely fabulous weapon to ruin the public credibility of, say, a competitor for the next poll. Or you can use them for blackmail. If you can't blackmail your opponent directly you can always look at what their family members are doing.

The possibilities are so numerous that it's hilarious. The irony is that the MPs who vote those laws seem not to be aware they are shooting themselves in the foot.

Privacy is a human right. Before given up on it, you have to make sure that a) it is temporary and b) the benefits are real (is it an effective way of preventing something bad etc.)
Even if copyright law wasn't perpetually extended for Disney, it would likely change little. People want original Disney movies, theme park experiences, etc. That's part of "the magic". Plus, Disney has many works that aren't anywhere near entering the public domain. They seem to have positioned themself for the situation where the extensions do not continue.

Probably true for meat-based food production.

The big question is: did he ask permission to each person who contributed to this? One thing is to have your words in a web site, another is to have them included in a ebook that someone else is profiting off.

It shouldn't be surprising that some people think that. Most people still feel that way about most narcotics.
I would say performance is so contingent on wiring quality that it cannot be reasonably assured. I tried out a TPLink system that claimed to be able to deliver 300 mb/sec and only managed 10. The fundamental problem is that you tend to want to place the units in areas with the highest potential for noise (eg near lots of electronics).

I suppose today it would be impossible for something like this to unfold the same way that it did in 1955.

If a user is in close confinement with someone they fear will lash out at them if they test positive, for one. Off the top of my head, lets say you take an Uber home and the driver now has your home address, you don't know if they will try and attack you.

This is an example off the top of my head, as other comments in this thread have explained, violence against people who have the virus is happening around the world and is something that must be accounted for in these protocols.

Yeah, so my thought when I bought it was to offer to sell it back to Disney for $25k or something. I could most likely get a pro-bono defense while Disney would pay a lot more than that in a lawsuit which I would most likely win. Most likely. I still haven't acted on it yet.
I can’t see anything about a ban.
>but for the average coffee connoisseur, excellent equipment is attainable for a few hundred dollars.

I think this is generally true of most hobbies (jokingly it's what I use to define a hobby, something that you can, but don't have spend at least 1000 USD on).

To pick one I recently started on you can get started brewing beer for under 100 dollars. You can get perfectly acceptable, even excellent beer using basic equipment. Then, if you want you can go out and spend thousands of dollars on pressure transfer equipment, kegging tools, stainless steel fermenters and etc.

But you don't have to.
Used here in a more metaphorical sense, for sure. There are more precise idioms for what I intended to say, but they didn't come to mind in time, so I went with what I had.

Before COVID happened, I was actually in the process of starting a new sort of meet-up site, aimed at solving this problem. My initial thought was to have an online discussion board but have mandatory monthly meet-ups in cities around the world. For example, in order to be a member of the site, you have to physically come to a meet-up once every six months. Often enough to become a part of the community, but not too much to feel like a burden.

The core idea is to take the best of the Internet discussion format and combine it with the strengths of an in-person community.

I’m certainly open to any suggestions or thoughts on the idea.

Coffee has a good number of health benefits - plenty of antioxidants and its good for your liver. Naturally, overuse can be bad for you because of its dehydrating effects. I've had conversations with some people who mention they're on their 4th or 5th cup a day, and I've said that I found that 1 or 2 cups a day coupled with plenty of water are much more effective.

Just like anything, a little bit can be good for you, but don't take too much - and stay hydrated! Preferably with plenty of sleep but I understand thats not always realistic for some.
The only thing stopping the robot apocalypse is the power problem. We have every technology necessary to enable mass casualties from commodity robots except long battery life. We don't need AI. We need decent enough pattern recognition that can pinpoint a weakness in the human body.

I often use my 'Stabby the Robot' diatribe to convey this to people. Imagine a robot that moves too fast to evade, that doesn't rely on expendable, limited ammunition(i.e. a blade or sharp surface), and can locate the jugular vein of a human. You could make one now out of a commodity drone, but it wouldn't last very long because of the power problem. AI would obviously make it more dangerous, but it isn't necessary.

We've already placed very dangerous tools into the hands of humans. Maybe it helps AlexeyAB sleep at night to stop working on YOLO, but his idle hands are not holding back the future.
That will just be filled with more Internet (see people who have tons of leisure time (and are still being paid) due to the virus).

I’m genuinely happy for you, that you’ve figured out, that coffee was bad for you and that you were able to overcome using it.

However I also think it’s being unkind to your fellow humans, who’s metabolism may tolerate or even benefit from coffee (or whatever other substance) to extrapolate from your experience to our entire species.

And it seems maybe we’re not the only animals enjoying stimulants [0].

> Most of my utilities are console command line utilities instead of full GUI. As a result, I have a bunch of command-line utilities that are very cumbersome to use. That's because I prioritized the dev experience over the UX.

Same here, although lately I don't even bother writing a full CLI utility. Instead I just write a few functions to call from a REPL.

(On a side note, why is the REPL experience so bad in JavaScript? How can Clojure have a better REPL to the JavaScript ecosystem than JavaScript itself?)

What is rich about calling coffee a mind altering substance? Sensibility varies across people, but as an occasional drinker, if I drink a cup of coffee (especially on an empty stomach), I get a strong buzz going for a solid 30 minutes or so. Not so different from a hit of nicotine (which I do not consume with any regularity either).

As far as my own body goes, I have no problem working and focusing while drinking a beer. For coffee, I may have to wait until the caffeine buzz subsided before I can really focus again.
I'm drinking one cup every 1-2 hours. But my coffee is not usual, it's a very hard coffee from moka pot mixed with fresh milk in proportion 1:9, so it's not a lot of coffee actually, but rather a lot of milk. I'm really addicted to the taste of this beverage and caffeine makes me feel a little bit better.
Picking the best allocator was not my goal. I was writing about how to correctly use any allocator. I agree that mimalloc is worth evaluating. Note that Microsoft says this in their docs, which agrees with what I am driving at:

"""
For best performance in C++ programs, it is also recommended to override the global new and delete operators. For convience, mimalloc provides mimalloc-new-delete.h which does this for you -- just include it in a single(!) source file in your project.

It is absolutely mind-altering. If you'd like to hear more, you can just check out the work this is based on, Michael Pollan's Caffeine: https://michaelpollan.com/books/caffeine-how-coffee-and-tea-...

Raku and Rakudo are different words.

“Raku” is the anglicized form of “楽”, which means “easy”. (It is also a form of pottery.)

“Rakuda do” is supposed to be “way of the camel”.

“Rakudo” is “Rakuda do” but shortened/portmanteau.

“Rakudo” is also supposed to mean “paradise”.

---

I want to know how “easy” and “paradise” are not considered different words.

And “Rakudo Star” is the “Rakudo” compiler combined with a bunch of useful modules. So it makes a lot of sense for it to contain “Rakudo”, because it does indeed include “Rakudo”.

---

It also makes a certain amount of sense that “Rakudo” is a thing which you use to “do” "Raku".
Caffeine is incredibly benign compared to alcohol and nicotine, and so far research has shown that it may actually be a net positive in moderate amounts in terms of cardiovascular health.

If you're worried about gastrointestinal problems, you can switch to tea. Much less acidic and harsh on the stomach, and some varieties have enough l-theanine to counter the negative effects of caffeine. If you're worried about the caffeine content not being concentrated enough, you can even drink matcha, which typically has more caffeine per ml than American filtered coffee.
