If I can figure out the right button to press to get a human, I explain to the Chinese scammers that my Mandarin is really poor, but that I would love to hear what they think about the 6/4 Incident.
Wow the ignorance.

The AWS CNI which comes with EKS attaches ENIs (think of a NIC) to the instance. The number of these you can attach is dependent on the instance type.

Pods get an IP in the CIDR range of the subnet the instance is in. There's no additional network overlay which does any NAT when traffic leaves the instance.

If you want you can use your own CNI, but things can break.

This seems normal now in Israel. But you did have to ask for it not to be stamped previously, which rumour was it annoyed them, but in reality most people must have asked I think they were always cranky.

Because YouTube is already known as one of the worst cancers on the internet, and has allowed the stupid to herd and multiply.

Flat Earth. Pizzagate. Soros conspiracies. Chemtrails. Anti-vaccers. These were all laughable fringe things that the disturbed came up with. Then YouTube came along and suddenly the stupid were discovering one another, confirming each other's idiocy.

YouTube is probably a little tired of this. The fringe can of course create their own video sites, just as they made their own "Twitter" and their own "Reddit" (all abysmal failures when they learn how miserable and deplorable they are).

This is kind of a weird question, though I don't think it was meant that way. I work at Google, and recommended work (but not mandatory) work from home (which almost everyone I know did), happened way before anyone else. It felt a bit weird doing it, in fact, because everything was still functioning. Even the required WFH felt earlier than everyone else and there was a question in my mind, "will I be one of the only people in my community quarantining?"
Or... the Covid is not as fatal as it is widely assumed.
I fear that we'll come out of this with a warped, unreasonably negative perspective of several things that are actually very good and beneficial. Remote work is one thing that might take a hit, because people will think that this is what remote work is like. I've been remote for 2.5 years now and this experience is not representative.

I fear the same will happen to the notion of home schooling.

The stone was carved ~196 BC (Hellenistic period)

Circa 1470 AD the stone was taken (probably from the town of Sais) by slaves of Egyptian/Syrian Sultan Quaitbay for use as raw building material for a military Fort (Fort Jullien aka Fort of Qaitbey)

The French discovered it during Napoleon's Egypt/Syria campeign in 1799 AD

The British defeated the French and took the stone to London under the Capitulation of Alexandria in 1801 AD

> So far 200,000 people have died from the coronavirus.

No. We don't know the numbers because most countries don't have the numbers yet. This 200,000 number includes data from countries like the UK or US who are only counting confirmed covid-19 deaths. We know that deaths outside hospital make up about half the total, so we'd expect about 400,000 deaths.
> What is an "infinitely small" number?

What is an infinitely large number?

> What does it mean to say X is a number, if you can't subtract it from another number and get a number as an answer?

By that logic, 0.99 repeating isn't a number at all, and therefore can't be equivalent to 1, because you can't subtract it from 1. So my understanding that they are different is correct.
Aren't WebRTC calls mostly using Opus? If they enable a reasonable audio bitrate (64 kbps+) when the bandwidth is available, you should be able to get quite decent music quality. Certainly, this should always be enabled for video calls because it would be a small fraction of the total call bitrate.

(Of course, these are theoretical considerations, not a prediction for what actually happens in practice.)
Google/YouTube is moving from annoying to disgusting. If the claims are wrong, take them apart. Censorship is not the way.
Ah, this is hacker news - to me, an order of magnitude means double, 2^n where N=2 and N=>4, on deaths per 100k. Those are different countries, though, with much higher population density. This is the only case where culturally and demographically similar countries pursued different courses in a way that makes them eligible for direct comparison.
Don't need to look at other countries just compare New York with LA.
A bit off subject, but I'm curious if you've ever run across any information that indicates certain length genomic sequences (say 8 nucleotides in a row or so) follow some sort of "order" in their numbering in the entire sequence?

Take one afternoon of your time and just google information on how China identifies videos on their platforms for a variety of reasons and pulls them. Heck, if you make a dumb enough video saying certain things in China, they’ll pull it and give you a little visit. It’s a super slippery slope once you decide ‘we have to do this because we need to protect the public, we know better’.

Here is a larger scenario. I personally think a lab oversight in the Wuhan region could have led to a virus outbreak, enough to at least discuss it. This theory could be deemed by WHO, which could be heavily influenced by Chinese investment, to be lies. With YouTube’s blanket policy, they would be doing the Chinese government’s bidding by getting rid of this lab virus narrative from Youtube (all under the guise of following WHO guidelines).

Anyway, you cannot censor based on an organization or a government’s guidelines.

> Rust absolutely does not have the ergonomics of any of those languages because it has lifetimes. They are things you don't worry about in those languages.

You have to worry about them in any non-garbage collected language. There's just no compiler that checks that you're doing it correctly and is the primary source of security bugs for most software.
There are likely deaths that are collateral damage. Fewer people are going to hospitals for heart attacks and strokes. It seems unlikely that we actually have fewer heart attacks, but people are scared of the hospital - so don't go and are more likely to die.

I am in the end the lockdown camp; but even if we allow businesses to open, many people will still be legitimately worried or scared and stay home even when it is something important like medical care.

There is also credit risk for an established business that maybe heading to bankruptcy. Amazon is essentially extending credit by paying sellers for items that may not have shipped. Given recent disruptions they are likely on high alert for credit risk as well.
Not quite true because you can avoid overshooting herd immunity with the slowed spread we will hopefully see now.
This definitely works great. If you stop and give them an activity to use what they learned, or just quiz them to test for understanding it forces them to engage with the content and learn far better. This is basic active learning, and doesn't need to be live. Though it can probably work better live (e.g. zoom), say if you pause, then call on students randomly to embarrass the slackers into participating.
I honestly am not sure how to put the idea that this is not worse than the flu together with the death numbers that we've seen in New York City, Italy, and other places. Suppose the death rate had been inflated as Roussel et al. suggest, is there another more important metric by which to measure the severity of the pandemic or the necessary severity of reaction to a pandemic (though the death rate in NYC is definitely more than .2% because that much of the population has already died)?
I thought the general consensus was that the way that the craft was accelerating far outpaced any known tech by a large margin. I was hoping some aeronautics HNers could chime in with their 2 cents.
I imagine that would likely fall under a new trademark or fraud law rather than copyright.
Android has a similar feature in its Do Not Disturb mode. If you're not already in my address book, my phone simply does not ring. Everyone I need to hear from on a moment's notice is in there, and everyone else can leave a voicemail. It's maybe a bit sad that it's come to this, but the robocalls are rampant and this is the only solution that even puts a dent in the volume.

Heh, no worries -- mostly the same deal there:

- You can do it, but it's probably not a great idea if you need to do VPC peering (or attach multiple VPCs to one VM, see next).

- Does actually work, but it does not work if the VPCs you're trying to attach to a single VM have overlapping CIDRs.

- Same deal, almost. You cannot add or remove network interfaces from an existing VM.

What kind of weather event are you thinking of? I think airplanes are typically designed to withstand high winds. The weather in this region is dry, and that's really the only word that can describe it. On top of that, we're at the beginning of the dry season. It's more likely a landing plane accidentally crashes into these parked planes than the weather leaves us with a trillion dollars of mangled scrap.
> I also saw a medical worker saying that if someone dies before testing, that will be counted as a COVID death[1]

But this is what happens for flu too. You want to count them using the same methodology. You either use confirmed cases (Covid-19 kills more people than a bad flu year, and yes we do test for flu); or you use confirmed and suspected cases (again, covid-19 kills more than a bad flu year); or you use excess mortality (and this year we have huge increase in excess mortality).

There's no way to look at the data and come up with anything other than "covid-19 kills a lot of people".

Are social problems more prevalent amongst homeschooled kids, due to homeschooling?

We don't do education otherwise, we wanted to flexischool (UK) but the teachers vetoed it. However, we know quite a few families who homeschool and they have an incredible bunch of socially active, artistically skilled, intellectually capable kids. Socially, they seem to be ahead of other groups, to me, because (I contend) they get/got a lot of inter-age interaction. There's probably a lot of selection effects too.

My own kids seem, in contrast, to have gotten more out of clubs fitted in around schooling, as opposed to their socially fulfilling time seeming to be more co-terminous with educational experience.

One thing I'm concerned about with school is that up until 12yo the kids only regular day-time contact with men is the janitor ... it's a slightly orthogonal issue, but I guess in general "you can't pick your teachers" applies for most people and even in our pretty nice neighborhood a couple of the teachers have had lasting negative effects on our kids.
The content of the positive reviews is usually noise, but the percentage of negatives is generally meaningful, as are the contents of some of the negative ones.

On Amazon, you can still get some value from the 1-3 star review contents, but the average star count (which is similar to eBay's % positive ratings) is almost meaningless since any number of negatives can be outweighed by near infinite fake 5-stars. That doesn't seem to happen as much on eBay (although I'm sure it does still happen).
The new seat is an "observer" seat which doesn't have a vote.
Selectivity is near 100% for tests where I've seen data.* I don't know about the specific one LA used but selectivity isn't the problem usually.

The sensitivity is the issue, but that would tend to push the true infected % up not down.

There's no missing the point. Torvalds developing Linux rocketed productivity which as any economist can tell you is worth a lot, lot of money. The scale at which the Fed is pumping money into the economy hoping to get a fraction of that productivity should tell you how much its worth.

You disagree with economic principles and productivity. That's fine. There's nothing to continue to discuss, then.

What’s terrifying about this is that this is the one you heard about. It’s like seeing two bugs in your house: are there 20 more, or 20,000 more?

The insidious part about sometimes-censorship is that it is invisible and deniable. Everyone knows the press in China or under the USSR is/was censored 24/7.

YouTube is only censored sometimes. It’s like a seatbelt that works every day except the day you crash (emergencies/crises are the times when open and free communications systems are most critical to the functioning of society).

I believe this poses an existential threat to a free society, because everyone flocks to these censorship platforms

I don’t go anywhere and my kids don’t leave the street. “Sorry kids you can’t go outside for the next 3 months. I’ll keep the windows clean for you so you can look.” Tantamount to child torture.
Learning from, and teaching, other kids at different stages and with different abilities too. Peer-teaching doesn't seem to happen much in schools.
Well, sure, I guess. I suppose a great teacher can be a positive influence beyond academics in some ineffable ways. However, as far my kids are concerned, my wife and I can provide the positive influence and the teacher can handle the academics. And that aspect of the teachers job is much more quantifiable and there are definitely people who are much better than others at it.
And there's tons of academic research that is cherry picked and doesn't hold over in all contexts. And let's not talk about replicability. In all honesty, my experience with "best practices" research is that it's kind of a joke and any author can use it to support any point they want to make, just by tailoring their subjects. And then they assume what works well in, say, inner city Detroit would work just as well in BFE Kentucky, without taking into account any cultural differences, etc. Education research is a joke, in my experience of having to read it repeatedly during my MAT.

I apologize, there's a lot of numbers flying around and I probably did miss the thrust of what you were saying. I shouldn't have focused on the comparison with the 1918 flu.

Plus, as someone pointed out, drawing conclusions from the numbers we have so far in comparison with the 1918 flu is difficult.

I've been working with NYC numbers. The link you gave was for NY State deaths. NYC has reported about 12.3k deaths [1], has a population of about 8.4 million [2] and 21% of people appear to have antibodies at this time.

Doing some math with the above numbers I end up with .14% dead so far with 1/5th of people exposed. From there I assume the amount of dead would quadruple before we reach herd immunity. I also assume that antibodies provide at least a handful of years of immunity, just like for other coronaviruses, reducing the severity of future infections. A likely outcome is that this becomes another variant of several coronaviruses that circulate with the common cold.

I guess even for those who might agree with all of the above there still exists differences in opinion on what actions should be taken. I personally understand some people's comparison with the yearly flu, but realize that is most definately not an apples to apples comparison.
