I read that too but actually the case augmentation is not statistically significant yet (comparing d1 and d2 after the reopening is not enough). You'll have to wait until at least d4 to have a better idea and i think they can manage to wait until week two to decide to either go for herd immunity (at R0 ~ 1 this is viable, deadly but viable for healthcare workers) or lock their country for a month again.

I would argue that meaning is whatever you find meaningful (people can find profound meaning in very arbitrary things), but it certainly helps to have some biological tailwinds on your side.
The practice of stirring up controversy to get attention, especially in online venues, and viewing it as a positive rather than a negative, is something I learned a lot about from "Trust Me I'm Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator."

If this popped up after the Disney tweet made it to the top of Hacker News and went viral on Twitter, then I suspect this was entirely intentional.
You don’t.

Whatever tool you want people to collectively use, everyone should have their own account to authenticate, there’s absolutely no need to share a password ever. It’s a lazy insecure solution implemented by people who either can’t be bothered to do it the correct way, are too cheap to pay for a multi account subscription and rather compromise their own security or simply unskilled and don’t know that everyone can use their own account.

Amazon has a famous love for what they call “two-pizza teams” and you can find writeups about the philosophy by searching the term. The joke is that a team should be small enough that you only need to order two pizzas to feed them all. The philosophy is about the number of participants in the decision-making process. Keep teams small and give them total ownership of decision making so that decisions can be made by a small group of people who work with each other every day. That way no meetings (and certainly no cross-team meeting) need to happen for most decisions to be made.
> I ended up creating my own framework that was much easier to understand and manage, but is obviously not generic enough to publish.

You lost me there.

Cute for a solo/learning project, but when other people are touching the project or you're trying to build a business, you have to answer for why your project was so special that it needed its own ad hoc framework. As opposed to, say, a framework with real documentation. Or one with an ecosystem so you can escape this culture of NIH.

When I hear someone building their own JS framework, I see someone who wanted to procrastinate the hard part (building a business, shipping a product, appealing to users). Like when game developers decide to build an engine and never make the game, aka the hard part (https://www.voxelquest.com/).
The author is a well known government hands-off libertarian, so keep the bias in mind.
Conversely, when I was in 6th grade, I begged and pleaded with my parents to try a new distance learning pilot program our state was doing. They allowed me to do it for 7th grade, and the lack of oversight and discipline led to me being a complete year behind in mathematics when I went back to regular school for the 8th grade. I never recovered, and ended up dropping out 2 years later.

Sure there is redundancy in elementary education. But middle and high school kids missing out on a year of math can be fatal. Smart determined kids can make it up. But the vast majority will be completely lost.

Edit: Be careful not to misinterpret the flawed study comment. The "this is a flawed study" comment is not with regards to the NIH trial. It is in regards to the lancet trial, the one that did not show benefit to remdesivir.

It's not working in severe populations, but that study wasn't fully enrolled so we don't know if it was powered enough, which the study in the lancet states. And, it doesn't need to be a magic bullet to be a major step forward in the fight against the drug? The NIH sponsored placebo-controlled trial met its primary endpoint - how is stating that just an attempt to goose the share price? If they are lying about that, then their credibility will be killed. If they are not lying about that, then there is now statistically significant evidence that remdesivir does work in treating COVID-19 patients, likely in less severe patients.
Ask HN: What do you write about?
I've set a goal for myself to improve my writing by actually writing everyday. However, I'm not entirely sure what to write about. I'm curious to hear what fellow hacker news readers write about.
A couple reasons: with the probable decline in numbers of students (particularly international students) I see furloughs and firings in the future at my former university. Pay cuts and furloughs are coming in my industry as well, but because the base pay is higher, there is farther to fall -- and I mean that in a good way, because I'm still living as if I made half my salary.

But more than that, the part I actually liked about teaching was that person-to-person engagement. The arguments, the exploring, the discovery. Seeing people (students) rise to challenges and do things they didn't think they could do. I've done a lot of online teaching, and certainly some of that can happen, but especially with struggling students -- they just don't log on. They slip away. At least if someone's sitting in your classroom you can provoke them or cajole them or charm them into a reaction that you can tease into engagement.
Password managers are a godsend, but it’s still very challenging getting the older generation to use password managers. Anyone who says otherwise hasn’t given it a try.

I am not advocating lowering any bars. I'm just saying that those kids are as screwed now as they have ever been, and that this particular misfortune will not play in their favor in the future, as employers, government, and nongovernment institutions will be just as unsympathetic then as they are now.

A sufficient proportion of the US is willing to let those kids fall by the wayside, rather than do whatever can be done to boost them over this hurdle. It won't be adding another school year, and it won't be lowering the bar. It might be by providing housing, food, and petty spending allowance for over-18 kids still attempting to finish their high-school diploma.
Most shitty deal flow gets ignored and it doesn’t serve founders well. The best approach is to spend time to research the firm and the partner you’re looking to seek investment from. You’ll get results when what you’re building matches what the partner’s thesis or perspective is.
Unfortunately, CC-NC does allow that kind of thing, even though to my eyes it's clearly commercial.
As an American it surprises me. I'm in the top 13% in terms of income/household and I've never bought or leased a new car in my life. It's well known (at least to people I know) that if you want to save money you buy used, ideally with cash, although you can sometimes save a little money with financing if you get lucky.

The issue seems to be in previous generations cars were more of a status symbol for many (as well as being generally more affordable), so lots of people were raised with that expectation. So they buy/lease flashy overpriced German maintenance money-pits and scoff at used Toyotas because they're boring.

That or they're just trying to put on a veneer of financial success as part of their "hustle".
C++ has no notion of a borrow checker and I am not aware of static checkers for the language that provides a coverage close to that of the Rust compiler.

As I continue to see how very experienced C++ programmers make exploitable bugs that passes all reviews and that are compilation errors in Rust saying that Rust is C++ with a different syntax is very naive.

Go find the others who are friendless, childless, powerless, weak, and ugly[1]. Among them, you'll find plenty of opportunity for virtuous activity.

> There's no need for half of the word to exist.

Yes there is. A service is a very generic concept to the point it's only relevant as a high-level concept.

The concept of a microservice makes all the sense in the world if you look back to where we came from: web services. When compared with all the work and requirements and complications of using SOAP and WSDL and UDDI and everything around, just sending small JSON payloads around, and the ability to peel off smaller services leveraging that architecture approach, was a far lighter and uncomplicated way of doing business.

I mean, the name microservices becomes obvious once you look back and all that you see is macroservices.
Also, in the near-term (~1 years), you may see dramatically falling home prices as people lose their jobs and the supply of buyers dries up, and you may have difficulty collecting on rent with all the rent strikes going on and tenants who do not have the ability to pay.

Long-term these problems should work themselves out and real estate (particularly in hot coastal metros) should start going up again, but 2020-21 is going to be rough.
I am pessimistic with regards to virus but optimistic with regards to economy.

I think people underestimate how difficult it is going to be to fight the virus. I think it is pretty much too late now. Only early and very decisive moves would have been able to stop it, the way China did, but it is way past that point.

But, I think we underestimate how people can learn to live the new normal. There will be people hit very profoundly, but overwhelming majority will adjust. We have maybe stopped spending for a bit fearing the worst, but now it seems we already reached the worst and so people are going to learn and resume their lives.
> hotel was restricting the availability of rooms/rates to us, but not disclosing that.

not disclosing to you, perhaps, but well known practice across all hotels. clearly instigated by one of the first online hotel room marketplace sites. "just feed us 3 rooms at a time ... we'll promote them as running out ... wink wink". as a competitor to booking.com you should have known about this practice.

you're going through some contortions to justify vile practices on behalf of the online booking agents.

I really wouldn't trust that KDF.
I'm using Backblaze to hold my backups for both my home server and my production server. For almost half a terabyte of data I'm currently paying $1.89 per month for around 300 GB, which is down from the $2.04 I was paying when it was around 400 (fixed an exclusion directive in my backup script to store less files). It is absolutely worth that trivial price to know everything digital I give a crap about has an automated offsite and encrypted backup in addition to my other backups.

I'm using the B2 storage (https://www.backblaze.com/b2/cloud-storage.html) since I'm backing up multiple machines and arbitrary sets of files, and it works on a pay-for-what-you-use basis. You can get more storage (they say unlimited, and I couldn't find anything in their literature to contradict that assertion) in the basic backup plans, but you don't get as much choice: https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-backup.html
Maybe this is just true of all advice, but I think this one's going to vary substantially from person to person. I find that setting an alarm in the morning helps keep my sleep cycle from drifting, so I get tired at the right time at night instead of staying up later than I'd prefer.

What does what you have in your 401k matter if your house and car are being repossessed? I suppose you could pull it all out at penalties and with a bunch of taxes, but that's going to be work, and assumes you have enough in there to make it worthwhile.
This is just bending over backwards to try to justify companies and people playing fast and loose to obscure what they actually have.

If someone says "I have a brownstone in Manhattan" and they actually mean they rent one of seven rooms, it's just a lie.
-There is no mention of eugenics in the film I was aware of.

-The film is largely about the Sierra Club's involvement with condoning biomass burning of natural gas and wood to create electricity

-EV vehicles are minimally recyclable and made out of multiple toxic materials.

Where many modern cars are made out of aluminum, including EV's, in previous ICE generations predominantly steel vehicles were easily recyclable. Modern alloys have made cars throw away items rather than recyclable. We are arguably going backwards.

Because C is a thin layer above assembly language. A pointer fits in one register, { ptr, count } would require two registers. Also if the count is being passed around, it should surely be checked when doing ptr + i, which slows things down further and is unnecessary if the caller knows what they are doing. If you start trying to make C safe and idiot-proof you also make it slower.

My kids don't really learn without some form of supervision and/or encouragement - what I have seen times and times again is kids learning from textbooks on _some_ subject, which it typically after a good teacher created interest for said subject.

> I know that by the time our child was in 2nd grade he was already doing most of his lessons without any adult intervention,

You're very fortunate. For my kids that kinda/ sorta true for the high-school one. And from what I've seen, they're not the exception. It even gets worse with teenage children, because they'll challenge your authority - so while they may work on stuff that teachers gave them, they won't easily take suggestions from you (e.g. what to study, for the high-school exams).
There is a difference. OOP is just one of many tools to help accomplish a task. Many other tools as well. It is up to the people how to use tools for a job and what tools for what job. You equating OOP with the dangerous things that should be kept away has no basis in programming.

I suspect you already understand that novelty is not the only goal of creative work, so I'm just going to go on past your first bit. Let me know if you truly don't get it.

He didn't say that debuts are usually the best art pieces. One, you have the flow wrong. He's more saying that the best art pieces were debuts. But two, he's not saying that either, because "things" is broader than art, and "best" is different than "really amazing".

As an example, look at Hamilton. I'd call it both amazing and great. But it wasn't done by somebody with decades of training and experience. Miranda started work on it when he was 28. It was not his 10th or 20th rap-influenced historical musical. It was his first. And only his second produced musical period.

The good thing about experience is that it gives us habits that work quite well. But that's also the bad thing, because it's very hard to approach the top fresh, to do enough things that don't work on the way to finding something novel that does work. So a lot of great creative work is done by the relatively young and inexperienced. And as Kelly says, we should give them the room to try.

But that also for input handling, formatting or simple business libraries? Sure you could implement that as services but that would probably result in up to a hundred service calls for one customer interaction. Maybe it looks clean from an architecture perspective but I can't imagine how that'll result in a good user experience.

Weird that it wasn't mention yet, but you should NEVER share passwords between people at work.
