Thus why I don't engage in gatekeeping. I'm just pointing out the obvious hole in your view.

There's no hole in my view because I believe that experts are right more often than not, but I also believe that they can get things wrong, or fail to see the ramifications of certain policies.

Thus why so much of the discussion seems to be optimizing for a single variable - COVID-19 deaths - while ignoring plenty of other dimensions that we care about (deaths from all causes in the long run, quality of life, etc).

In particular quality of life is absolutely missing from the analysis in many who claim that the lockdown is justified.

>You're basically saying that whatever the price is, the market is right.

Op said that the markets are priced based partly on expectations of the future, I don't see any claim that those expectations are necessarily correct.

In terms of the Fed's effect: Both the Fed's immediate actions as well as expectations of future Fed actions have an effect on prices.
Any idea whether a COVID-19 vaccine can be added to the annual flu shot cocktail or are we going to be asking folks to get vaccinated twice each year? If 2 vaccines, can they be given at the same time or would we need to space them out for a period?

This is what I meant by a little more risk.

I think the potential gain in transaction fees would be worth this risk, particularly for companies which know both the customers well (e.g. already process all their transactions).

Cryptocurrencies don't address this, they simply pass the risk to the merchant instead which is far worse.

> "organ kundabuffer" was a specific organ that excreted some kind of drug (in Gurdjieff's pre-history.)

So basically you have to be on board with his sci-fi extended universe in order to grasp the cause behind the central tenet of the Fourth Way: that man is asleep.

> "being-partkdolg-duty" is the task and operation of remembering oneself.

Defining one Gurdjieffism in terms of another Gurdjieffism. Nice. "Remembering oneself" is, roughly, what Hackernews knows as mindfulness, but seems to involve a lot more following Gurdjieff (or one of his disciples, or his disciples' disciples, there must be an unbroken chain to the Master you see) around, scrubbing his floors and latrines, and doing his silly dances. Giving him your money also seemed to help.

> "the sacred Rascooarno" is death of the physical body.

So why does Gurdjieff say "the sacred Rascooarno" and not "death"? Because the Gurdjieffian concept of death is alien to anyone outside the Work. As you say, Rascooarno is the death of the physical, planetary body, but a person (or "three-brained being"), in the course of their life, has or develops other, "finer" bodies made up of even smaller particles than the matter which makes up their planetary body, like the body-kesdjan, which is often equated to the astral body but isn't really. One might say, in other religions, that a person has a soul. But for Gurdjieff even this is wrong: it's more like a person has the potential for a soul. Thanks to -- you guessed it -- the maleficent consequences of the organ Kundabuffer, a soul can only be attained through 20 or 30 years or so in the Work... do you see where I'm going with this?

Anyway, if you had a true friend in the Work, that friend would rebuke you for doing what Gurdjieff specifically enjoined his followers not to do: attempt to interpret his works to outsiders, lest you transmit wrong information and cause those outsiders to be crystallized in the wrong hydrogens.

That's the theory.

Expectations have been all over the place. If you sold in February you saved a lot of paper losses in March. If you missed out on April you lost a lot of gains as expectations improved.

For now, I'm keeping 5-year money (college tuition starts in a little over a year) really conservative. Retirement is staying diversified mostly in stocks and I'll try not to obsess over it too much. A little bit of "fun" money may go into play if I feel like a gamble.

According to Latest Intelligence Reports
According to latest intelligence reports, I have one good news, and one bad news;

1- The good news is that, terror organizations had stopped making mass suicide attacks against large crowds because of the great overreaction given by the common public.

2- The bad news is that, they are planning to make the attacks in front of tens of thousands of people BUT, not directly to those people; instead, they will direct an operation to one person only, the player of a football game, during an important match.

The proposed name of the operation will be “Maradona goal”, inspired from famous football star Diego Maradona. The principle of the system is very simple; inside the football, there is an inner liner which also contains valve stem for air inlet.
In normal conditions this inner liner is filled with normal air. But in this proposed system, inner liner is filled with a mixture of; approximately (50% pure Oxygen + 50% pure hydrogen). Which are reltively quite easy to find commercially; since pure hydrogen may be purchased from welding equipment shops, while pure oxygen may be found in hospital equipment markets.
Under normal conditions, this mixture is stable forever and never explodes, but if the effect of a specific catalysor is introduced, system will explode instantly. The required catalyst is black platinum sponge . Chemical proprties of platinum sponge for catalytic reactions is given at the following link https://bit.ly/2xmfrgM . Catalytic material is introduced in hermetically sealed Mylar plastic bags, where the properties of mylar materials is also given at link https://bit.ly/2KNaYXm So you can scrutinize the whole resultant chemical reactions.

HOW DOES THE EXPLOSION COMMENCE. The hermetically sealed mylar capsule which contains black platinum catalyst is GLUED inside the inner liner, so that it looks like a small patch inside the inner layer of foot-ball. Under these circumstances,

Not exactly, the fact that a NoSQL database doesn't enforce a data scheme doesn't mean you don't need a clear scheme which your app use, even if the schema is as simple as just take whatever the format that the frontend use.

Because if you don't your database essentially becomes a write-only vault since you don't have any idea of how your data is stored or was stored in the past.

The problem is fundamentally different, we need tech that are more open and transparent.
Community Advocate from GitLab here! If I understand you correctly, you are looking for a way to aggregate analytics across GitLab, so that users can view information across multiple projects and groups in one place.

Yes, I can, that is how it was originally prototyped and due to pressure of Go advocates on the team it got rewritten in Go.

Making the connection is the hard part. The vast majority of computers and mobile devices basically do not have a routable/public IP address.

Teredo tunneling was one of the coolest solutions to this problem, providing both NAT-busting and IPv6 support but unfortunately it never gained popularity.

Just check the original context. "Best single core performance, which is what matters". There are no hypotheticals. Single core performance exists.

Look at the other replies. People who don't understand the difference between concurrency and parallelism. These people actually think multiple cores are a good thing.

What you don't seem to understand is that CPU manufacturers could have scaled up performance while still delivering a single core. They went the multi core route because it's much easier for them.

Their marketing departments have won, though.

Cyberstalker Please Help
Needing help with disabling a malicious hacker who has not only uploaded, transferred,deleted mine and my son's personal info on my pc, but now he is in 2 phones remotely. How can I completely disable him from gaining access again after hopefully with the help of you, getting him disabled from everything? He has access to my emails, he opened up an online checking account with my sons I formation. He is my neighbor that lives 6 ft away from me. I had screenshots and videos when he hacked I to my computer, then they all got deleted off my phone?? I went and got a new phone from a different carrier, new number, did not install or enable ANYTHING on the new phone and he is in it. There are "fake" icons for play store, messages, phone, gallery, just to name a few. Please help. I contacted the police department and they said they were not knowledgeable in cybercrime so they could not do anything.
By massive excess I was referring to vents/tents. Estimates of vents needed were far too high due to the models being relied upon (i.e. not because we surprised ourselves with how flat the curve got given the seroprevalence was not expected from policymakers as far as I can tell).

Still, I _don't_ know about how we are doing in terms of healthcare workers. That's almost certainly the bottleneck and it may be that it's still a bottleneck. I'd have to do some research to say for sure. It's very possible my statement was not correct in that light.

This is also the sign of the kind of plumbing that is baked into the US system - protect capital when things go belly up and allow labor to hit the reset button through unemployment and wage cuts. Flood the market with cheap credit and then eventually growth comes back. It’s a rehash of the financial crisis response because it’s the only sort of response the USA is configured for.

cons lists are kind of slow because they don't play well with CPU caches. Are there any ideas how to adapt Lisp (or LISP) so that it plays well with current CPU architectures?
Hmm, I consider that paper to be pretty weak evidence -- as elsewhere, it shows a hypothesized connection via some intermediaries: they show Vitamin D inhibits inflammatory cytokines, but then presume that this inhibition must therefore help avoid hypercytokinaemia (cytokine storms), despite hypercytokinaemia being an edge case/failure mode of the immune system that is not particularly well-understood.

The paper I shared in my previous post cites work showing that Vitamin D promotes other kinds of inflammatory cytokines.

So, yeah. Vitamin D might reduce the likelihood of a cytokine storm, and circumstantial evidence relying on mechanism-of-action suggests that it does -- but this hasn't been demonstrated conclusively.

What is known, however, and which this paper reiterates, is that if you're deficient in Vitamin D, you're more likely to suffer from respiratory tract infections. Take a supplement!
It is very much software – all modern trackpads are capacitive touch surfaces.

A MacBook’s trackpad hardware is differentiated because it is covered in glass, larger than most trackpads by a lot, and it clicks using a force sensor + haptics (so it is more reliable / has an even click across its surface).
A mix of both. MacOS's multitouch privateframework has a number of states to cover when a finger is just landing, ellipsoid data, palm rejection / resting thumb states. The ability to provide this data is presumably done by their touch hardware.

I encourage looking at the earlier discussions since much has been talked about this before.
Throughout this I've tried to focus on the number of deaths. It's certainly not a perfect measure due to undercounting in some areas and localized epicenters but it seems to smooth out the noise between regions far better than number of positive tests.

The big deal is that you've nicely brought me back to my point.

>Even so, I don't think I understand even half of it. The part I do understand makes me think that Gurdjieff was a genius

By taking something relatively simple, combining it with other nonsense you heard or made up, wrapping it all in deeply nested layers of made up BS and obscurantist terminology, definable only in terms of itself, you too can develop a complex, seemingly consistent "system" that looks to the unwary like a work of profound intellect! And all you have to do next is pitch it with a hot take about something that everyone knows about and relies on (e.g., "the default state of man is sleep"/"the internet is broken"), to which your system is the only solution!

You both should try "Compiler Construction: Principles and Practice" [0]. Theory is interleaved with substantial examples and exercises. You create an entire compiler for a tiny language called TINY (hah.) You write it in C and generate code for a portable virtual machine -- the book also goes into detail on the VM, with source code.

Lastly, the book's appendix has guidance for writing a compiler for a subset of the C language.

A close friend of my S.O. is a German woman, who moved here about 15-20 years ago to marry an Aussie bloke who speaks with a very strong "Strine" accent (which is not so common here in Melbourne).

It's one of our greatest delights to hear her use, in her still-strong German accent, the Australian slang words/phrases she's picked up from him. Like the time we dropped into their house, and she greeted us, ushered us in, and said (if you can imagine this being said in a thick German accent) "Mark will be with us soon, he is just on ze blower".

In California private employers and state/local are unconditionally prohibited from requiring employees or prospective employees take a polygraph. It's actually a crime for a California employer to turn someone down for a job because they refused to take a polygraph (which is also why you should always refuse to take a polygraph for a non-federal employer in California).

Presumably your example was for a federal job.

There is also a similar federal law but it exempts government jobs.
