Not sure why you added the lower limit at 15. The two high risk age groups from influenza are 65+ and under 5. If I recall correctly, pediatric flu deaths are the only ones tracked by the CDC (for other age groups they just use statistical estimates).

There is data on comorbities with the flu from prior years. This article says half of deaths had no preexisting medical conditions.

And the deaths among healthy young people from both kinds of viruses is commonly blamed on the cytokine storm:

I still don't understand why people worship this book. Contrary opinion here but I think this book is actually below average.

I think it's good that it introduces the overall concept of Design patterns, but the book itself isn't really about the general concept of Design patterns.

The book is focused on OOP techniques and tricks. It makes the assumption that OOP is the most general way to modularize things and think about computation and design.

Additionally a lot of the "patterns" aren't actually good, they're actually really bad. Many of the patterns introduced by this book actually increase complexity of a program while giving only an illusory sense of increased modularity and reuse-ability.

The 'for all' statement is also an existential quantifier, as is the 'this one value' statement implicit on the imperative statements.

The entire meat of the article depends on this concept of "non-trivial" quantifier.

I’ve been an API-based CMS fan for a while but at the end of the day it’s a huge bet on the viability of the vendor, because good luck migrating away from an API-based CMS.

No way all of the myriad vendors in the headless-CMS world survive this downturn.

I think that needs to inform any CMS decision.

Ultimately I suspect there will be vertical integration at play with the companies raising money to be the Wordpress of the 21st century. Wordpress is a CMS after all.

> I am dead serious. Powershell should replace (bash) shell scripting under any Linux.

This probably means you don't have a CS background and/or very little experience with linux/scripting/etc and dare I say powershell itself. Scripting in linux/unix/etc is primarily text based whereas powershell is object based ( which is why powershell tends to be slow in comparison ). Also, the only thing going for powershell is it's tie-in with the .Net Framework along with Microsoft based servers ( such as SQL Server ). Like most Microsoft products, it's meant for their environment. There really isn't any real reason for powershell on linux.

> I find shell scripts terrible, I've learned to switch to Python quickly, despite the overhead. Powershell is very command-line friendly, with easy tab-completion of commands. I've worked with it extensively on Windows, creating large worklflows with it, it's very nice.

Sounds about right. I can't believe that's what you wrote in support of powershell. Linux, bash, etc was built from the ground up to be command-line friendly. Windows was built to be GUI friendly. But there is a reason why windows administration is viewed as a joke in the tech industry. I guess powershell may seems amazing when going from GUI based administration to actual script based automation/administration.

> Powershell even has a unit test tool called 'pester' which is funny to me because it means 'bully' in my native language.

Seems like a goalpost shift since I was just responding to your claim about "Taiwan sovereignty".

And since you brought up the December 31st email, that only amplifies my point about corporate media if you formed your opinion on editorials obfuscating the primary source rather than the primary source itself. Here's the actual email from Taiwan https://twitter.com/mohw_taiwan/status/1248915057188024320

"News resources today indicate that at least seven atypical pneumonia cases were reported in Wuhan, CHINA. Their health authorities replied to the media that the cases were believed not SARS; however the samples are still under examination, and cases have been isolated for treatment. I would greatly appreciate it if you have relevant information to share with us. Thank you very much in advance for your attention to this matter."

It's so embarrassingly not "a warning" from Taiwan that Taiwan has been busy deleting the original email from their press release archives and rerouting permalinks to their emails (still available on their tweet at.cdc.tw/23iq82) to a further obfuscating rebuttal.

Meanwhile, people who just read corporate media headlines and don't bother with primary sources or critical thinking goes around telling people "Taiwan emailed WHO in December warning about China lying about the human-to-human transmission".
Or, maybe you're right, and the market would have fallen a lot further (or at least not recovered) if the Fed had done nothing. And, on that one, we won't even find out, because that's not what the Fed did.

When I lived in Switzerland this dish made me appreciate what could out of come out of that blue box with some creativity:

The closest comparison is its like a Swiss take on a carbonara; gruyerre for the grautin and shaved emantaller to serve are the way to go after several experiments in my opinion.

The Apfelmus makes the dish, I personally like drinking Apfelmost while eating this dish, too.

You'll still need police, prisons, etc. But you could reduce their size as less people will require the attention of those state organs. People usually know that what they are doing is wrong, and would rather avoid doing it. Of course some are reckless, but that's what you still have police for.

HR is not an organization that should be arbitrating technical issues that they don't know anything about.

The solution is for technical managers - at all levels, from team leads up to the CEO - to actually provide leadership to their teams. This can consist of training people about why it's important to do things right and setting up incentives to do things right (e.g., don't promote people who get things done quickly by cutting corners). To me, this story sounds like a classical management failure (been there, done that myself).

Sure have seen a whole lot of, listen to us because this is what we say, without a whole lot of correctly collected data (emphasis on the correctly collected because data are worthless unless correctly collected, i've personally had to throw out hours of work because of sampling errors)to back anything up. Yet, I'm being told to accept lockdowns, police searches of homes and a whole host of human rights violations on the whims of some vague international appointed entity in the name of public safety.

This is why using WHO as the body for 'truth' is idiocy. They have a hundred different incentives pulling them in different directions. Automatically making it a poor 'source of truth' or, even worse, what is not okay to talk about.

It might be a good source of information for governments around the world looking to take the most neutral diplomatic and balanced stance on every issue.

Not sure why those same incentives should then be influencing what people are allowed to talk about on the internet.

why can't the two coexist? On Linux you can currently choose rather easily between bash, fish, zsh, ash, dash, sh, ksh, csh, tcsh, fish and more. Every script can use the one it wants easily with `#!/usr/bin/env <shell>`

If you're arguing that powershell should be the default that's a different argument. sh syntax is still in widespread use because of how portable it is and how widely known it is. It truly is the lingua franca of unixey OSes.

> Vox did a piece on this. Basically, if you're young, the risk of death is about equal to a kidney donation, which is a procedure we allow.

I haven't seen the Vox article, but if that's what they said, it's total bullshit and irresponsible journalism, and I'd request that you do your part by not repeating that.

The first kidney donation was in 1954. We have 66 years worth of data--plenty of time for many kidney donors to live out their lives and have the problems caused by kidney donation, so we have a pretty good idea of what the long-term effects of kidney donation are.

We don't know what the long-term effects of coronavirus are because nobody has had it and then lived long term. The first case we know of was in November 2019--five months ago. Vox can't say that "if you're young, the risk of death is about equal to a kidney donation", because we do not know what the risks are. If scientists infected a bunch of 20 year olds with Covid in 2020 and by 2050, 40% of them die of lung cancer before the age of 50, is that something you'd be cool with? Because that might be reality--it's impossible to know.

To be clear, I'm not saying Covid-19 causes lung cancer. I'm saying we cannot possibly know ANYTHING about the long term effect of Covid-19. We shouldn't assume that it causes lung cancer, but we also shouldn't assume it's no more dangerous than a kidney donation. We shouldn't assume, period. So statements like, "if you're young, the risk of death is about equal to a kidney donation" are lies. And I would implore you to not spread that misinformation because it potentially has deadly consequences.

Sounds like well-moded means: for given inputs, you get a definite answer, rather than something to be further computed around (like high school algebra with more than one unknown). Fits the context here.
I would say that the dollar had already lost a bunch of its value by 1968. It's just that the gold peg hid that when you measure the value of the dollar in gold. But if you look at inflation during the 1950s, the dollar was losing value then as well.

Now, sure, the dollar lost a lot of value between 1968 and now. I don't deny it. But it also lost value between 1935 and 1968. Measuring the value of the dollar in terms of gold makes it look like all that happened after 1968, which makes the rate look higher than it actually was.
