Someone get's hives around dogs. Perhaps the online version is better.

Depends on the need.

I want to learn about all dogs. Online would offer more. I want to learn more about this one dog perhaps locally observing is better.

Depends on the technology at the time.

Online might offer the same experiences locally in the future. VR might give you the chance to meet that dog and interact virtually.
Do notation considered harmful
The infection rate relevant insofar as it means the population will approach 100% infection [1],- and subsequent immunity or death - faster than other regions. Densely populated areas like New York will have a sharp spike and sharp decline. Loosely populated areas like Kansas will see a slower, steadier rise but also a slower and steadier decline. Social distancing makes areas behave more like rural areas, by virtue of limiting contact. But the same number of people are going to get infected eventually until herd immunity is achieved.

Faster infection doesn't directly result in higher total fatalities, unless medical care lacks capacity. This is a bigger problem for places like New York where the infection rates did put significant burden on healthcare facilities. On the flip side, places less dense than NYC can go without restrictions and this will not impact the overall health outcomes.

Deaths nation-wide have peaked more than a week ago. Deaths among developed countries have also mostly peaked over the last few weeks. Testing almost always under counts, both by virtue of not counting asymptomatic people, and by delays in forming antibodies in the infected. The latter also affects random studies. New York's 20% indicated infection rate likely means that the infection rate today is approaching the 50% or more required to achieve herd immunity.

1. To be more specific, it's estimated that the virus will spread to 50-70% of people before herd would diminish the ability of the virus to spread much further.

You're right, AWS does heavily discount at this price point (as do other providers).

Egress fees on the order of 40-50% off list are possible in my experience.
Epic Fantasy Books to help you get through Quarantine
Okay, fair point, but I don't think the usage of the term disinfectant makes the speculation any safer.
The positive cases aren't a representative sample, as has been said 30 times in this thread. So line 3 is bad statistical reasoning, and completely invalidates their conclusion.

The only people who are getting tested are those who believe they have symptoms. This is beginning to change as we get more tests, and as a result, the % infected by their reasoning is decreasing day by day.
per your #1, my school district is doing that. One designated teacher [per grade, per subject] is recording lectures that are posted to a central repository. this content is assigned out, along with supplementary work, via Google Classroom at the class level. Each class teacher, then, schedules their own class video meetings to "check-in" and offer support for students who need it.

My experience thus far, having 3rd and 5th graders at home, is that remote math learning is a piece of cake and the quarantine experience has really illuminated for me how slowly public schools move. It has also clearly demonstrated that teacher language arts & writing requires 1) skills I don't have, and 2) direct interaction with a competent instructor.

Note, too, that not all teachers have adequate internet access at home to effectively teach remotely. My 5th grader's teacher is quite rural and has 5mbps down, 1mbps up internet service. She can barely participate in online meetings and cannot effectively upload any video content.

#2: 100% agree, but some classes lend themselves this more readily than others.
The math does not reflect reality. Why do you think 12% of Californians have covid? What impact does that have on the chance of dying stat?

Also, I fixed the space on the fourth line.
I have no inside knowledge about this, but I'd assume and expect AWS to only use customer metadata like resource utilization for capacity management and planning. Much more and they run into compliance issues with things like HIPPA, SOC 2, and PCI.
Yes, the Internet is relatively easy to decarbonize compared to e.g. air travel.

But still, the energy consumed might be used for something more useful instead. Or binge watching Netflix replaces an even more energy intensive activity. Who knows.

Down votes are good. They help start the conversation of why your comment could be wrong.

I agree that people should comment better when they interact with a post.

Scaleway has 0 bandwidth fees and unlimited bandwidth.
It depends on the display technology. I, for one, is still using an old-fashioned IPS LCD, and a white background has less power consumption.
They build sites, but they also lease space from the same providers as everyone else.

It's also worth noting that sometimes when a company builds a datacenter in a green field situation, it may be working with a datacenter provider on that project. So the company may own it, but they're paying the provider to use their design elements and potentially to operate it.
Maybe it was an offhand remark, maybe it was sarcasm, etc. But that misses the point.

If you are the most powerful and widely-heard person in the United States, you don't get to improvise your press briefings or give dubious advice "as a joke". People often defend him with "well we've all said something stupid", or "maybe he just didn't think it all the way through". But he isn't you or me. He is the leader of the free world. He carries enormous responsibility, and he's demonstrated time and again that he can't be bothered to give a flying fart about it.
Its not even that I study with other people, it's the "what is he going on about" while in class that I miss the most. I am expecting to drop a full letter grade this semester from my average just from being online.
What are your recommendations for japanese, out of curiosity
My kid's class has a parent-organized "Zoom recess" three times a week for just this. There's always a volunteer parent moderating/hosting, but it's an oppy for kids to be themselves socially.
> the much-lauded, traditional, western liberal values of free speech?

Such as stopping people from saying bad words on radio/tv or stopping women from even accidentally showing a specific small part of their chest? We have a long history of direct censorship by liberal western governments for far worse reasons than saving lives.

I don't see all these "free speech" advocates stepping up to stop the ongoing suppression of comparatively harmless expression like showing the female nipple. Yet, somehow the suppression of this actively harmful content is the rallying cry that pulls in so much attention.

I am a free speech advocate, and I don't personally support the removal of this video, as I think the aims would be better served by alternate means, such as placing a strong disclaimer of inaccuracy alongside links to accurate rebuttals. However, I don't see how you stop Google from removing whatever content they want without creating laws that curtail other important aspects of free speech (e.g. creating a regulatory body that decides which groups do and do not have the right to control the content they publish).
And they cannot be local.

Even with physical goods borders are often abused for avoiding to spend money. Some Amazon warehouses for delivery in Germany are situated on Czechia and Poland in order to pay lower wages.
And this is how it's done unfortunately.
I understand you. All the long ours in preparation, planning, interacting, evaluating, and for me, the compensation for all that was quite ridiculous to tell you the truth.
Students only interested in the course's diploma, asking questions like 'why am I seeing this?', 'how to apply this in the real world', 'give me a practical example in your practice' (knowing that I was only a lecturer, not a practitioner in the field, the list goes on and on.
I don't miss being on classes - what I miss is interacting with good smart students, to tell you the truth. They were the ones I target my efforts.
Your reason may be other, mine was this.
I was trying almost every day including yesterday, did this and it worked. If it is required to be all caps it'd be nice if the site said so... I guess maybe they just finally loaded my data.
School could easily be considered a negative social experience. Unnaturally spending 6+ hours/day with kids of the same age under loose social guidance. A home-schooler has his neighborhood and extra-curricular time which are more than sufficient, but also one huge advantage: the potential to spend time in the real world with authentic relationships with people of all ages.

Do not believe everything you see on YouTube.
Honestly, the new redesign is terrible in so many ways. Speed is one of them. Another is the waste of screen space. Finally, the image driven format just changes the whole dynamic of the site, from reading to scrolling. You can still find quality discussion in the comments of some subreddits, but the way users interact with the site is far more "instagramm-y" it used to be. The site is, overall, less interesting, if more "engaging".
They are saying it now. Today. Attempting to change the subject to what was said 3 months ago isn't a great strategy.
> You cannot have a net-surplus of free speech by censoring

Of course you can. The government banning a platform from moderating content is a form of government censorship. Yet you believe that this would lead to more free speech.

Either a platform moderating is more free speech, or not moderating is more free speech. In either case, someone is being censored. So some form of censorship leads to more free speech.
Human Challenge Trials for Vaccines
I guess if you go through life with your eyes closed, or only listening to one side, then I can see how you'd think that. There's no place to start with someone as ignorant as you. Literally, I could list all of the ways the US left has helped improved the quality of living, and all the ways the US right has actively hurt people and you'd shrug and still spout the same ignorant comments. So all I have left for you and your type is contempt. Utter contempt.
My experience in learning math is that the textbooks try to provide what is right. And what is right typically becomes excessively verbose to the point that the main idea gets lost in the rightness. This is what in person coaching gets you. You get the intuition of the idea, ignoring all the nitty gritty and only when you have a firm grasp of the intuition do you explore what this intuition also means for different cases and hence the nitty gritties.

Having experienced this myself many times over, I now know exactly what to look for in a book when I am self learning. I don't know how this skill is to be taught but if remote learning was to succeed, different methods of learning needs to be outlined and taught to the students and get them to learn to select one appropriate for their learning styles and subject.
Your second statement is a far ways away from your first one.

de-googling: appleling
This is my experience, too, and I don't have an fully engaged adult able to help. The kids can obviously move 2-5x faster than they do during normal school, but doing so absolutely requires an engaged adult. There are just too many things an elementary aged kid doesn't have experience with yet for them to be able to solve their own problems (or stay focused).

My 5th grader got reprimanded today for spending 30min on fonts & colors on an essay that itself only took 30min... as a simple example. Another example: I regularly have to prevent both kids from accessing Youtube during school time.
Of course they should. Youtube isn't bound by any law to be the standard video hosting site. They are simply the most popular over the past 10 years. Zero government mandate or anything. They can remove all hosted content tomorrow if they'd like, entirely up to them. If you don't like it, feel free to build your own platform. That's the beauty of disseminated knowledge of computer science and the internet, after all.
It doesn't, or at least not yet. Increasing the money supply might eventually cause inflation, but it's not a mechanical link and doesn't happen automatically. For example, the money might be paid back, and that decreases the money supply again.

Also, for inflation to happen, people will have to try to buy more stuff than what's available, and merchants will have to raise prices. Although we've seen shortages for a few things, that kind of overall spending is unlikely to happen until the recovery phase when people are feeling confident again.

Other than the staggering amounts, it's not really different from any other bank making a large loan.
If an ETF is composed of junk-grade bond debt, should the ETF also be considered junk-grade? How can the ETF remain "investment grade"?
If this was only about getting the information out, then they would have just uploaded the video to a separate video hosting site. Instead they are complaining about how one site is attempting to ensure potential misinformation about a poorly understood virus isn't spread using said platform. The fact that the narrative of personal liberties is being focused on this while millions of poorly paid workers are forced to choose between homelessness and putting themselves at risk is a cruel joke. I can't imagine this is anything except narrative manipulation and not about presenting an accurate portrayal of the erosion of personal liberties.
Just curious, how do you deal with socializing the kids?
No,because in order for it to make a difference the student needs to be in a mental state for it to make said difference. It's just too hard for many kids to get motivated to self-teach, especially with no practical experience.
I got a 2016 iMac for free, and I have many times questioned if it wasn't an insult after all. It has given me nothing but grief. Had I not been able to fix things myself, I probably would have spent more money of this free iMac than I would if I had bought a decently specced computer to replace it with.

And now I have to deal with Catalina. Either it's a lemon, or there's something deeply masochistic about apple users. I have fixed enough inane issues with friends' macbooks to suspect the latter (these include: 2x broken SATA cables, 2 shitty solder jobs (of which one was "fixed" by Apple by pressing the chip down with a rubber pad against the chassi. It broke again), several things that just magically disconnected themselves inside an unopened laptop (with apple quoting several thousand SEK repair costs). All of this while providing arguably the worst repair experience of all time (the only real competition I have met is the previous gen MS surface). Yet the people I have helped still praise apple's superior quality.
You provide them access for free. That how it working locally here.
> I saw parents who were complaining about breaking 634x127 into (600+30+4)(100+20+7) because they didn't understand you can break it up like that and it makes it a bit easier to do the multiplication, then you can just sum the resuts.

That's just a more explicit explanation of multiplication in pre-common core math. It's just a different explanation for the same thing.
Traditional western liberal values of free speech permit and require private citizens to make decisions about which points of view they will support and which they will not support. Which is what YouTube just did.

There is not a “everyone likes your software platform so you’re not allowed to have an opinion” exception to the traditional western liberal values of free speech.
So many regional variations. Sounds terrible to have to work with.
First fix corona, you can't even model a virus that happening right now correctly but somehow know that you need to fix and how to fix some future maybe problem which might or might not happen. I'd rather have software than start throwing money down the pit to "solve" global warming. When global warming will actually cause issues to some area in the world we will deal with it, until then let people live their life. I just cringe of the thought what would have happened to the economy if we wasted this money on "green new deals" right before the corona crisis. The hubris of the scientific community assuming they can predict the future in such a complicated system is just amazing.
But if you're selling electricity you generally don't get to refuse service to anyone.
YouTube is most certainly not tax exempt. Section 230 is about liability for user-generated content. And that video is a dubious interpretation of it, at best.
That’s like saying it’s vanishingly unlikely that Google will get a chat app right.

It’s precedent.
It’s nothing to do with ego.

HN downvotes cause comments to become effectively hidden and unreadable, and while some that receive this fate are just throw away “useless” comments, plenty are not.

The idea that a downvote “starts the conversation” is just plain wrong - people are actively told not to ask why they were downvoted. That’s the opposite of starting a conversation.

I disagree with what you said, but I didn’t downvote you,
I replied and told you why. If I, and the other people who Top-commented so far all just downvoted your comment your comment would be literally fading from view, and you’d have zero clue about why people did so.
It's because he's so open about what does and thinks. He doesn't act like a typical politician and hide it.

He'll say things like "We are in Iraq for the oil".

Everyone knew that, but no president would admit it.

He's also incredibly self-centered, and he acts only in order to get re-elected, and/or praised. But that means he does what the people want, rather than what is best.

There are a lot of people who believe a politician should represent the will of the voters, rather than act in the best way they know.

Obviously you can argue which is better course of action, but at least you can understand why people vote for him.

Also: You would do well to ignore what he says, and pay attention only to what he does. He says everything and anything, just to gauge reactions. His actions are then based on what reaction he got. (Remember he's very self centered and wants praise.)

I've found that people who really hate him pay way too much attention to what he says, thinking that what he says has some bearing on what he's actually going to do.
Your 'very optimistic mortality rate' makes a number of assumptions about the rate of asymptomatic cases, the population which experiences asymptomatic cases, etc. It ignores data coming out which suggest that interventions like ventilators may be harming more than helping.

Making any assumptions about the mortality rate with the abysmal state of testing in the US and around the world is guesswork.

Making assumptions based on the horrific codebase that's spawned our most cited models should also give anyone in software at least a twinge of anxiety.
I see. The same was for me with app blockers.

> Was Yang planning to exempt any part of the GDP from his VAT?

A lot of GDP is exempt from VAT by design. It's easiest to see if you look at the expenditure approach to GDP. For a simplest example, government expenditure is effectively exempt from VAT. Exports are VAT-exempt (though it only matters if you export more than import, because imports are subtracted in expenditure approach to GDP calculation). Another part of GDP effectively exempt from VAT is capital goods: when a business buys a piece of equipment, it technically pays VAT on it, but it also gets the same amount they paid as a credit for the VAT due on their own sales. The business gets to "consume" the capital good by utilizing it in production process, but doesn't pay any VAT for it on net.
If you think your team is going to get laid off you could maybe try to volunteer for it and negotiate for a more generous severance package. Big cos like that typically set aside money for those things and how it gets distributed is discretionary.

It seems to me that the ESA is getting better value for money than NASA. They seem to have more projects completed or on the way than NASA. Is it just the fact that NASA is focused on a maned space missions that takes away from more general science projects?
Is that analogy sincere? YouTube itself has channels, no? Youtube is the TV. Wouldn’t it be fair to say you can exercise editorial control over your channel, but television manufacturers shouldn’t come with it’s own defined restrictions on content?
