Sometimes deficiencies in other parts of your diet can reduce Vitamin D uptake, i remember reading somewhere. something to consider
In this simple example, yes, but you are assuming that monetary value = utility. That's not always the case. People have all kinds of different incentives for participating in the markets.

Let's say I am a market maker offering to buy Apple shares at $99 and sell them at $100. Let's take an ex-Apple employee who owns some shares. He just had a family emergency and wants to liquidate his shares to get cash, and he needs it quickly. He doesn't care about paying a few dollars extra in exchange for a quick trade because he needs to pay a bill tomorrow. I buy his shares for $99. He is happy because he immediately got his cash.

On the other side, there is a a retail investor doing long-term investment and wants to add Apple to their portfolio. They also don't care about a few cents because they're holding the stock for a decade and love the new CEO. They buy my Apple shares from me for 100.0. They are happy because I can guarantee them a stable price for a decent number of shares.

All participants are happy. I just made $1 from the spread for providing liquidity, the investor got the long-term investment they wanted, and the ex-Apple employee got his cash.

Sure, both sides of the market could have made more optimal trades if they had put in more effort and "optimized" their trades with algos and somehow skipped the middle-man, but they would've sacrificed convenience and time, which may be worth more to them than the little bit of extra $ they paid. Aren't we all winners?

When you go buy bananas in your grocery store you also don't complain about them taking a cut for providing liquidity. You don't say the farmer has "lost" money because the consumer paid more than what the farmer originally sold for to the grocery store. The farmer is happy because otherwise he may not have traded at all or his bananas may have gone bad (= needs to trade quickly). This is no different.
...because we've done enough to slow the spread. Any responsible look at the stats show that clearly. Here's a link in case the entire internet wasn't enough:

Deletion is an easy mutation to occur in the process of replicating a genome. The reason these strains would be successful is because they dont kill or hurt their hosts that badly. If the infected person is bedridden, they're not going to be out and about spreading the virus, while a less severe infection would make it easier for them to mingle amd infect others to pass on the gene pool.
My doctor told me (as he was telling me I needed to take vitamin D) that really at most latitudes in the US (including SF), the sun light is too weak and you won’t get enough vitamin D from sun exposure. This was all to tell me that I should still take an oral vitamin regardless of how much time I was able to spend outside.

Anecdote, so take it for what you will.

I see a lot of good points here. Thanks for creating this.
I wish you the best. This debate has taken on all the fervor of a holy war, and putting out an contrarian position has been hugely unpopular.

One thing I'd add: employment and health insurance are tied together in the US. The lock down dramatically increased unemployment, the majority of whom will not pay expensive Cobra costs, and will soon be uninsured. The opposite of what was intended may happen: we are now less prepared to deal with an increase in demands on healthcare than we were a month ago, as uninsured people tend to avoid hospitals until they're absolutely necessary.
Hmmm, I have been a ardent Tesla supporter for many years and actually own 2 teslas (my post history would confirm that), but alas starting today I am done with Tesla and Elon. I have given him a pass for
- Promising autopilot in 15 days (after they abruptly terminated their contract with mobile eye) when I bought my model S in 2016
- saying FSD features are 3-6 months away in 2016 (some of these features launched this month in 2020)
- pedo guy tweet
- 420 tweet
- other absurd hyperbolic claims like battery swap, coast to coast driving in 2018, top line Model S loaner cars for everyone, blah blah blah
- a neural net driven rain sensor that barely works

I still believe that Model 3 and S are the two best cars I have ever driven. But I can't support Tesla anymore, which is not build for a mission, but seems to be build to squeeze workers and lie to customers.
That’s bullshit. FB does not stack rank.

A bank I did some contracting for had a problem where their Token-Ring network would crash at random intervals during the day in one of their branches. It would also crash at night, but the times when it would happen were more predicable.

And that was the clue they needed to solve the problem - it turned out that the wiring installers had run the cable up the elevator shaft. When the elevator stopped at a certain floor the door motor was sometimes interfering with the signal. The more-regular nightly disruptions were because of the security guard making his rounds.

It turned out that run was pretty close to the length limit for 16mbps Token-Ring, so they added a repeater in the middle to boost the signal strength.
And still people use @here or @channel without good reason. Every time I see this I'm reminded that social problems don't have technical solutions, not that that the technical solution was clever.

So is it a solution to a problem or is it just papering over a completely different problem?
Given the fact that vitamin D deficiency is really prevalent across the entire population, I’m not sure how much weight to give to this study...
Finally, they have started supporting the Edge browser, Many VPN services are still not supporting edge, it's still the biggest browser after firefox and chrome, other VPN services should also start supporting the edge browser.
He is right, people may be testing positive just because of
dead virus fragments, but to say they have fully recovered there must be no virus alive in their bodies - lack of symptoms may suggest it, then having antibodies may guarantee that eventually..

.. assuming the virus can not hide (and be able to leave) where they can't penetrate - like in the eye ?

.. and with weak immune system the outcome may be (how?)long undecided as the antibodies are not being able to fight the virus fast enough to finish it definitely?
The article is more about policy than epidemiology.
Babies are the worst. They just sit there and smile or gurgle, but they don't know anything about mathematical proofs or kubernetes orchestration.
my understanding standing is that the older you get the less that your body can metabolize from sunlight and it’s sunlight that occurs for a small period of time during the day based on the angle of the sun and the type of UV rays that are filtered. and you need to be naked

Sure, but people took those jobs in large part because of those pensions. It is part of the entire compensation package. They often times took less money up front in return for better pensions.

The problem is that this was not properly budgeted for when funding the pensions.

I have a fun story about the sun.

I used to work for an IPTV provider (who also happens to make a search engine). We received TV feeds from TV stations via satellite; we had an antenna farm, received their signals there, compressed/encoded the signal, and then sent them to customers over the network. Because we only had one antenna farm, we would have TV outages throughout the year -- sometimes the satellite happens to be directly in front of the sun, and the sun is a huge RF emitter that would overwhelm our receivers. (I asked if we can just move the satellites, but was told that we didn't have the delta-V budget. We eventually built another antenna farm. Another question I asked is why can't the TV stations just send us video files over the network. Apparently it simply isn't done; they have used satellites for decades, so why switch?)
Given the circumstances of C's birth, it was, in many ways, optimized to be ergonomic for the compiler writer. If you don't ever need to return structs, then you can always just use the same register to hold the return value. Similarly, if there are no struct-typed arguments, then each argument is either a register, or a single machine word on the stack (C did other things for the latter - e.g. consider the conversion rules for functions called without being declared).
To learn more about coronavirus, treatment and vaccine development from the perspective of doctors in S. Korea, try watching these interviews in order. Each is about 30 - 50 min long. I posted the links and the dates they were uploaded. The videos are excellent because the doctors are not interrupted with questions.

1) 2020.03.27

1st interview with Professor Kim, leading expert on coronavirus in Korea. In Korean with excellent English subtitles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAk7aX5hksU

2) 2020.04.14

2nd interview with Professor Kim, leading expert on coronavirus in Korea. In Korean with excellent English subtitles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwoNP9QWr4Y&t=1081s

3) 2020.04.25

Interview with the Director General of the International Vaccine Institute (IVI) about COVID-19 Vaccine. It's in English.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cYWd0N8nO4&t=120s

4) Note in the interview with Prof Kim uploaded on 2020.04.14, they were still not sure if a recovered patient testing positive again was due to reactivation/reinfection or not. They were still trying to confirm it as of 2020.04.14.

But it seems the yna.co.kr article posted on 2020.04.29 confirms recovered coronavirus patients may have tested positive again due to traces of virus fragments that have been inactivated.

5) I'm hoping the Youtube channel will upload another interview with Prof Kim about covid-19 soon.
Maybe we will end up putting this new vaccine research to good use and see if we can knock out some of the other coronaviruses. I'd love a combo vaccine that immunized against a bunch of common cold variants.
Toddlers and children will also take scissors and jam them into power sockets, or drink bleach. That kind of poisoning is really beside the point.
Yeah, that's just the flu or some other disease. It's a bad flu year.

If it was actually covid-19 community spreading in December, then we wouldn't be talking about a few thousand deaths now in April, we'd be talking about millions. The exponential curves don't match up.

Whatever you had, it wasn't covid-19.
Well being nice and polite is part of the guidelines here, which is not such a bad thing.

But the pretentiousness annoys me sometimes, at the end of the day it's another forum of people who don't think they're part of a hive-mind... which we definitely are
"
The entire point of a minimum viable product is not that you have a complete, flawless app, but rather that you get something up you can iterate on quickly."

Given that I agree with this premise, it's interesting that I come the exact opposite conclusion. If 99.9% of the work is in the iteration after the MVP, then when someone says "I could build that in a weekend" it's totally fair to say "'That' is only 0.01% of the work". Hard work that it may be to put out an application, none of that matters when no one uses it. Conversely, easy work that it may be to come up with an idea that has already been done before, if it's successfully marketed and developed into a product with traction and then ends up being the first of its ilk to be the runaway success, then you end up with Google instead of Lycos or Yahoo.

I think his point is that reducing successful companies and products to implementation is to miss the forest for the trees. Traction is hard. Execution is everything. If it was easy, everyone would be able to do it successfully.
If they really had an altruistic mission, then it was their responsibility to protect that mission, and they blew it. Pivoting their product to target kids was their own choice, and they are responsible for the consequences that were obvious to everybody.

A more straightforward explanation is that the altruistic mission was always fake.
the content is incredibly addicting. i was skeptical at first but don't underestimate people's creativity. they did a great job unlocking that with music.
It's a varying question and depends what you mean by an all-in-one experience. There's no one perfect language.

My answer would probably be Python, though.
> but whether it, and similar markets significantly increase the chances of a similar event in the future.

I’m not defending wet markets but on that theory we should also ban all pets. And ban all livestock. And ban all hunting and eating of hunted meat.
Thanks. So, is it possible that wireguard writes to tap and the bridge or another interface on the host reads from it? Why would one prefer epairs over tap, if that's the case?

And, I don't really get why wg-jail also needs default-router to be pointed to bridge0 when the author addms epair-b to bridge0 on the host (which file are the following lines added to anyway?):

----

cloned_interfaces="bridge0 epair0"

ifconfig_bridge0="inet 192.168.20.1/24 addm epair0b up"

ifconfig_epair0b="up"

----

And the explicit default-router definition for wg-jail, in vm/wg/etc/rc.conf:

----

defaultrouter="192.168.20.1"

I happen to have a friend in HVAC. I bought some gauges and basic tools and he trained me on troubleshooting the AC, its really helpful.

Having redundancy or at least a backup plan is better. You have to consider all of the risks and what is at stake and how much downtime you can handle.
Something like 0.2% of NYC residents have passed away from the virus. As of 2018 the MTA had 50k employees. 60 out of 50,000 is 0.12%.
That’s a popular point with the talking heads on the media but I’d encourage you to read up on it. Best estimates look like 1-4 years of immunity [1]

I don’t know what you’ve been smoking but the bulk of the Israeli army relies on reservists they literally cannot go to war without it having a major economic impact.

Also the benefit of having a mandatory conscription is that nearly every household would be affected all of a sudden propaganda doesn’t work anymore.
This seems to fit a couple other things. Functions to "get device capabilities" from device drivers are misguided to some extent. Also, web sites checking capabilities of your browser should be considered an anti-pattern.
U.S. coronavirus outbreak soon to be deadlier than any flu since 1967
I personally don't have a line. As I said, someone working at a dubious place means I'll start out more suspicious about their ethics. Good people sometimes end up in bad places. But I'll definitely be interested to see their answers around non-technical topics and I'll pay special attention to how they behave in the practical parts of things.

And I don't think this is about my particular ethical code. Any company I work at is going to be focused on delivering value to users, not harming them. Creating value for others is fundamental to commerce, so it makes good business sense to hire people who care about that.
This is cool because it shows Apple built a castle on a foundation of sand.

The author points to the sand, and Apple says "we're only interested in the castle."

In one sense, to agree with most of the comments here, thats the practical answer for Apple! Show us the problem with what we've built!

In another sense, I scooped the sand away from the foundation of your castle, and now I'm inside.
YouTube is not "just any business" and the idea of regulating what is otherwise legal behavior is well-established.
They were already open. It's expanded from "essential workers" to "businesses that are allowed to have facilities open". (not much of an increase?)
I think a bunch of the replies are missing out on the "why". Somewhat simplified:

Employer: Welcome aboard. You get 1000 shares vesting over 4 years. They're currently worth $1 per share, which will be your price no matter when you buy them from us. You can buy the ones that have vested at any time until you leave, but you can't sell them until we've gone public.

You: Great!

Employer: You know, there's a tax trap you could fall into when you leave, whether that be before the 4 years are up, or after. If we haven't IPO'd yet, but we've done a series C at $10/share, you will surely want to buy them as you leave. But you can't sell them yet, and the kicker is that the IRS says that the act of buying them for $1,000 when they're worth $10,000 means you have a $9,000 profit in the transaction, and they'll want to collect taxes on that (say, $3,000). And you may not have the cash to manage that. Even if you do, and then the stock craters later, and you've already paid the taxes, you don't get a refund of the $3,000 in tax the next filing season; rather, you get to subtract $3,000 from any other stock gains you have (in any subsequent year), should you be so lucky. Oh, and even if we have gone public by the time you leave, if you want to hold onto your shares, you've still got exactly the same problem: pay tax now, be out the cash, and lose big if the stock tanks.

You: Fooey.

Employer: But! Have we got a deal for you! It turns out that the IRS says it's fine if you kind-of buy your shares from us now, for $1,000. (Frequently at startups: We'll even give you a bonus to cover it!) Then, when you leave after 5 years, it's a no-op as far as the IRS is concerned, and you can hold the shares until you want to sell, and at that point you have a gain that you pay taxes on, which you can certainly pay out of your cash profits!

You: Super!

Employer: The only thing is, if you leave, say, after 3 years, really you would have only vested on 3/4 your shares, so what we'll do is only hand you 750 shares (that you vested on), and a $250 refund of the rest of the $1,000 you gave us.

You: Yes, that's more than fair!
This really seems like a stretch. The creative part of a simple reproduction of a Van Gogh painting is the Van Gogh part, not the shutter speed of the camera used to take a picture of it, the choice of the ink and paper in the printer, etc..

And Van Gogh's copyright has expired.
I would imagine it’s used for scheduling meetings in other apps.
Yes. There might be a state where someone holding a lien on a house can prevent a first mortgage holder from foreclosing, but I'd certainly recommend someone talking to an attorney before trying this.
To me, that's the absolute worst possible outcome: All of the important software use cases become owned by the existing players forever, because no other competitor can gain traction without Apple's marketing help by being in the App Store, but then they can't become powerful enough to truly compete with the big players by being outside the sandbox.

That's exactly what happened with Pixelmator, and it's happening now with the Affinity Suite. Before the sandbox, Pixelmator looked like it would one day be a real Photoshop competitor, but now they're mainly for people who don't want to pay for Adobe's subscription.

And, the real Adobe competitors are more likely to come from somewhere else, like the web with Figma. The funny thing is that now Figma is usable on an iPad, because it's a web app, and Sketch, which is an all-Apple technology AppKit app, isn't. Because web apps can avoid the sandbox, even on iOS. Some of the biggest beneficiaries of Apple's security strategy are poised to be some of the apps least invested in Apple's platforms.
That's an interesting observation. My experience was different: I learned how to program a bit and found the process so mind-numbingly boring that I gave it up entirely. A developer friend once told me, "I don't have a good feel for a project until I've written the first 1,000 lines" which is literally the moment I decided to stop trying to be a real programmer.

As for quitting smoking our experience is different there too. But glad we both quit. :)

Forgive my ignorance, but how would an IPFS gateway interfere here? If you have the hash of the js file you need, you can verify the gateway gives you the right one, correct? Or are you referring to the case where IPNS is used so the actually content at the address can change?
I suspect this would be facted on operators (trains, bus, etc.) versus support/construction/maintenance staff.
> This is a living document and we encourage contributions in the form of pull requests.

Who is "we"? I understand your use of "we" to speak from the perspective of us as a society through most of the article, but this makes it sound like there's more than one author.
>...which has a readability score (Flesch-Kincaid, etc) of around a middle school level...

This might not be the most condescending thing I've ever read on HN, but it's definitely gunning for one of the funniest.

Genuinely, what is the purpose of making an argument about a complex topic and then suggesting that skipping nuance and detail is an acceptable route to forming an opinion?

If you're so certain on this topic and think that your tl;dr section cuts to the quick of the issue so well that people with a middle school reading level should obviously understand and agree with your point, what is the purpose of the post as a whole?

To be clear, I think this is silly on multiple levels but the babytalk bit made me lol
I’m not sure if Netflix ever had market capitalization higher tahn Microsoft
I don't think Pascal pointers had to be implemented as location+size, since most operations that required checking the size were undefined or implementation-defined anyway. Some implementations might have used them to provide runtime checks, but it was certainly not the case in Turbo Pascal, for example.
I'm not sure this is necessarily a security issue, it is perhaps more of a social engineering issue. The user IS shown a suspicious dialogue "App wants access to control TextEdit".

What apple could do is perhaps add some sort of indication or extra step to help users make the informed choice.
> There are hundreds if not thousands of video sharing platforms.

You keep trying to gloss over the fact that RandomVideo has nowhere near the size or reach of YouTube. Monopolies DO NOT REQUIRE zero competitors, that has never been part of their definition. Some videos on YT have BILLIONS of views. There's literally no meaningful competitor.
It's not legal for a US state to declare bankruptcy. There are three relevant parts in the US Constitution that preclude this action. One says that US states are not allowed to abrogate their contractual obligations (pensions, debts, etc). Another says US states are sovereign in their own right. The Federal government cannot act on them directly. All bankruptcy procedures (personal, corporate, municipal) are dealt with at the federal level. Having a federal court process a state bankruptcy would violate state sovereignty, because the federal government would be acting on a state directly.

A law would have to be passed and there would probably be a challenge to it that would eventually go before the US Supreme Court.
I am spending more time in FireFox too and want to give it some love. It still has some catching up to do with Chrome. I find myself switching to Chrome for work related activities, namely developer tools, and that's pure habit. I didnt have time to experience the FF version. Is it comparable?? But since my company's only supporting Chrome I'll do development in Chrome. At home I am on FF and have been so far loving it. Some extensions have to do some catching up in FF as well.

When in FireFox I am still experiencing weird bugs but am willing to give her some slack and hope they get fixed. Come on Firefox, FireFix and Rock!
