My understanding is that lighter roasts can actually have more caffeine than dark roasts because the roasting process gradually removes caffeine from the beans. That’s from George Howell who is kind of a coffee legend here in the US north east. Haven’t tested this myself.
normally when you start nginx it will start another process, detach it from your shell and then exit. This leaves the other process running.

I wouldn’t say “most”, but it’s definitely true that a good number of third party “sellers” are in fact scammers. This isn’t a problem specific to Newegg, but online marketplaces as a whole. It’s basically come down to a game of whack-a-mole; platforms simply can’t ban these @ssholes quickly enough :/
Meh. This trend was in full force long before the virus showed up.
This point from the article is really important IMO

'Scientific consensus is important, but it isn’t uncommon when some of the most important voices turn out to be those of independent thinkers, like John Ioannidis, whose views were initially doubted. That’s not an argument for prematurely accepting his contestable views, but it is a sound argument for keeping him, and others like him, at the table'

In a free society information and ideas should flow freely, not be banned and originators punished as happens in closed societies. It is alarming the level of vitriol and blind adherence to 'the scientific method' aka accepted establishment viewpoint in some cases, particularly online.

For all the endless proselytizing about 'innovation' there are some remarkably closed minded people around, enabled and amplified by social networks
Those increased unemployment benefits are very unlikely to last as long as widespread unemployment.
"Creative", as a noun, in this context is a very specific term from the world of advertising (where I worked for a decade), which means both the copy and the image/video etc.

It's a shorthand term (think DSL) a bit like "code" in the world of developers, etc..

LTO I will grant you. I don't think you need to meaningfully inline the body of delete to get sized-delete to work effectively. You do want to statically link your sized operator delete body though, obviously. As of the last time I tried this, trying to inline the actual body was difficult to make effective, though.

Views still need to be backed by solid data and in this case, the Stanford study the article is highlight has a number of issues with its data:

"I think the authors of the above-linked paper owe us all an apology. We wasted time and effort discussing this paper whose main selling point was some numbers that were essentially the product of a statistical error."

"I’m serious about the apology. Everyone makes mistakes. I don’t think they authors need to apologize just because they screwed up. I think they need to apologize because these were avoidable screw-ups. They’re the kind of screw-ups that happen if you want to leap out with an exciting finding and you don’t look too carefully at what you might have done wrong."

That's not the claim GP made. They said their coworkers spent an amount of money that seemed crazy to the GP. There's nothing to refute! Repliers don't know the coworkers. They can't refute GP's personal metrics. And we already know that some people don't think spending money on coffee is ok, because GP's co-workers are doing it every week.
Your own post is "intellectual property." Can you be a bit more specific?
It’s definitely fair to disagree with the majority here. The written dissents also make sense, and as a 5:4 decision that wasn’t along party lines you’re in good company with Supreme Court Justices who think it was an incorrect decision.
After seeing some commenters here arguing how old people dying of the virus will be a net positive to the US economy, I don't think HN has the moral ground to deride other communities on this issue.
My worry with pieces like this is that they're meant to encourage intellectual diversity in scientific discourse, but some people will undoubtedly try to use them as "teach the controversy!" to justify any kind of crazy non-scientific idea. How do we teach people to draw that line? Or is that a lost cause?
Unless there's a state-mandated quota on essential businesses, what's stopping a store from adding some essential goods to their inventory and merchandising? This would reduce the burden on other stores, i.e. increasing social distancing in parking lots and within the story.

Laws exist with the consent of the governed. When laws are instituted under premises (e.g models, intelligence) that are later proved wrong (e.g. data, WMD inspections), consent should not be taken for granted.
Scientist should hold themselves to the highest ethical standards. The article seems to defend an article and opinion that sees economic consequences are more dangerous than human lives lost to COVID-19. In terms of scientific discourse, this sounds fishy to me. We don‘t know so much about the virus: long term effects etc.

If a scientist argues against saving human lives now, because of a man made economic systems inability to cope with the crisis might kill more people later, I say don‘t hear him, criticize him based on an ethical discourse. Save the lives now and adjust the system so people don‘t need to die.
Uh, there are plenty of laws to keep people in their houses. In my state, anyone outside w/o an excuse can be charged with disorderly persons offense at the very least.

And that foundation paved the way for Pittsburgh to become a world-class research hub instead of a declining industrial city like, say, Cleveland.
There's a good quote cited often on Strong Towns: "problems have solutions, predicaments have outcomes".

We're in a predicament. We blew weeks, maybe months ignoring the problem at the federal level, so now we don't have the PPE or testing and tracing infrastructure we could have had at this point that would allow some cautious, yet safe reopening in places. The stay home orders work, but they're devastating to the economy. Reopening in an unsafe way would be devastating to both the economy and public health: smart people are going to stay home anyway because they don't want to get sick and die.

There are no 'good' options at this point. Something like this plan seems like the best bet, but we need to get supplies and infrastructure on line as quickly as possible, and understand that the federal government isn't likely to be of much help.

The "definitive guide" title is an exaggeration, but the article mentions U.S. alternatives like Target and Sephora.
My wife is a certified social worker and knows just about everything there is about that. It’ll be cheaper but far worse in terms of coverage and deductibles. So it’s an option for stretching budget, but it’s not a good solution if anything significant happens. I’ll ask her if she knows what’s changed with regards to COVID-19 related cases, but my guess is that nothing in terms of coverage has changed. So given the current world circumstances, switching would be akin to taking a giant gamble on your health.
The USA has one of the most insane systems on the planet. There's 50 states plus DC. Each with their own laws which apply to anybody selling in that state, so if a business is selling in 50 states then they need to follow 50 sets of laws, and that's before we get to smaller jurisdictions. The tax system is byzantine and nightmarish even by the standards of tax systems.

What the USA has going for it is that it was very far away from its enemies during WW2, and so while European countries had to rebuild everything, the US economy went into overdrive. Plus it's the 3rd most populous country in the world and that has advantages.

It's certainly nothing to do with simplicity of doing business.

The gist of the government edict doctrine at hand in the majority's opinion is exactly this.

It is a precedent-based doctrine that says official works of officials whose work carries the weight of law cannot be copyrighted. This is because the law belongs to the people, from whom its authority derives. Thus, a lawmaker (legislator or judge engaging in lawmaking duties - official works) cannot be the author of their work, because their work (the law) belongs to the people. Copyright protections are granted to authors.

This was precedent established in the 1800s, and has now been upheld in this decision. It seems a quite significant decision in this area.

I usually find that if you have to make an analogy for any reason other than explaining something technically complex, your position is probably faulty. E.g. in this case, I'd call this a false equivalence. Rather than making an analogy, you should explain directly why YouTube's policy is immoral or dangerous, rather than indirectly pointing at some other scenario, which will always differ in many relevant and irrelevant ways by the simple nature of it being a different scenario. It needlessly complicates the conversation.
Out of curiosity, how would developers run git in a Xcode-on-iPad scenario?

UPDATE: Regarding the GUI git apps and Xcode's built-in git support, do you think that’s enough? In my anecdotal experience these are normally used as an accompaniment to CLI git, not a replacement?
The stated goal is to decay to 1 infection per million residents so that robust contact tracing works. Back of the envelope math puts that between 6 and 18 months of continued progress of the health order to get it to this level.

(60 or so in Santa Clara County ICU == ~6000 infections. ICU occupancy decaying by 40% per month; 0.6^15 months * 6000 = ~3 )
But why would the fee be quite large? Who would pay such a large fee when immediately after they publish the book, rival publishers who paid nothing could print their own versions. Even if it was a kickstarter model with decentralized payments from individuals, a large number of people would simply wait until the kickstarter was over and the book published to get it for free. Imagin that was the case with kickstarters now: How many people would pre-pay for products that have no quarantee of delivery if they knew that waiting would earn them the item for free? Again, even if there was a guarantee the product would be finished, those who wait would still get it for free.

I'm not saying this couldn't work, in theory, but I think in practice that the # of parasites has the potential to make such a model unworkable. But maybe not! I'd be perfectly happy if you're right and it worked.
The author’s employer was spending that money, not them?
Scientists who "express different views" are listened to, when they have convincing data to support those "views."

Ioannidis is the only real example provided in the article, and his opinion piece (and the related Stanford study) was criticized, not because he's an iconoclast, but because it was bad science (and especially bad policy). Not only that, but then, instead of engaging with the scientific community, his "expertise" was co-opted by the conservative media and its agenda.

Some people have them here, but it is not that popular. Most of the country has a mild climate and so you would still need an electric heater to keep the tempreture constantly high enough to kill legionnaires bacteria (over 60 degrees celcius).

I think over the lifetime of the system money saved in electricity would not be offset much due to installation. Most of the country is run off hydro so not much environmental benefits either.
” There is a high risk of infection and relatively little benefit. It is probably better, for society as a whole, to pay the unemployment payments and have long hair for a while.”

Citation absolutely required. We’re talking about people’s lives here, and there’s zero evidence for this kind of intervention.

Everyone says they’re “listening to the science” to make these kinds of decisions, but where is it? Why can’t we be letting people get haircuts while wearing masks?

Particularly in a place like San Francisco, where there have been 1,400 cases total and 23 deaths. It’s simply irrational now, and a lot closer to virtue signaling than anything with a scientific basis.

Don’t just downvote: provide affirmative evidence.

Visualizing state-level COVID19 data
A return to 19th century cafe culture is perhaps a bit optimistic.

I would be satisfied with a re-emergence early-90's (that is 1990's) chill coffee house. But those days are gone too. I'd say it's because of two reasons: Real Estate (rent too damn high) and no time because everyone is either working or not in the right head-space.

There was a time in 1990's where one could read about 19th-century flaneurs and actually think they were also a flaneur, spending all afternoon in a coffee house hanging out with random people, talking about cool stuff. I did it, for a very short while then -poof-, it was gone.
I'm not in the academic sciences but when my uncle published his thesis in a journal for his physics PhD, he got literal hate mail in his mailbox for going against the old-guard with his conclusions. It completely blew my mind that his peers who worked in the sciences got so wound that they sent hate mail to him. I think he still has the letters all these decades later.

I learned second hand that apparently a lot of scientific acedemia is like that. Crazy.

Point is there will be more than enough cases to overwhelm hospitals if the virus spreads in earnest. In this respect our population is potentially more vulnerable than, say, much of Europe or parts of Asia.

I don't know why my comment is even being downvoted. There is literally nothing factually incorrect or logically inconsistent about it yet every time I post anything regarding COVID19 I get immediate downvotes.

My friend who works at the airport in the Galapagos (GPS) was telling me that no one has gotten paid since the tourism stopped. Luckily she can work on farm, but many can't.

The US is struggling in many ways, but I can't help but think many other less fortunate nations are struggling even more. But the US doesn't show international news so you wouldn't really know unless you go looking for it.

The unibomber was an anarchist, therefore anarchists are bad, you don't see how that works? It's like how environmentalism is bad because of eco-terrorism and encryption is bad because Mark Zuckerberg is a jerk who has too much money and all Muslims are bad because of 9/11.
That’s why we believe that the bar to stifling or ignoring academics who are willing to debate their alternative positions in public and in good faith must be very high.

But the "good faith" part is precisely the problem. Though it is difficult to discern good faith from bad, those who argue in bad faith destroy the system entirely, and we need some kind of defense against them.
From what the SF and CA governments have been saying, that's definitely next. Part of the goal of having mask orders now is to get people used to it. But until our test-and-trace capacity exceeds the rate of new infections, putting more people on the streets is only digging the hole deeper.
Hmm, maybe that was what the plaintiff lawyer said to encourage the guy to drop a case he didn't want to do anymore after learning more of the details.

Often employee-side lawyers take cases based on contingency fees or shared/blended deals that mix hard money with contingency fees. If the case turns out to be a turd, some lawyers do just about anything to get out of it.

On the other hand, Disney's lawyers would have unlimited budgets and would be incentivized in stringing out the case as long as possible to get that sweet Disney money. They would have no interest in encouraging an early settlement unless they thought they would lose.
A little _too_ friendly.

A buyer screwed me out of 5 drone (DJI Mavic 2) batteries and $700. Two weeks after getting the drone, “none of the batteries work”. Really? All five? I was skeptical, but said I’d do a partial refund if he’d commit in writing that the partial refund was contingent on him returning the batteries so I could repair, or replace (at least two were still in warranty, if there was ever even a problem). At no point did he show any actual evidence of battery issues (DJI Go battery diagnostics, etc.), just "it's not showing anything".

He sent a message agreeing, via eBay messages with the text I'd sent him, even with "should I not do this, I understand that seller will dispute the transaction".

Not even an hour later he sent another message “USPS won’t ship damaged batteries so I am not returning them”.

I went to eBay with all this, and his agreement. eBay said he could keep the $700. And the five batteries.

I own the the regular keyboard folio that launched alongside the 2018 iPad Pro and have mostly enjoyed it so far. I wish it had more angles to tilt the IPad at (similar to a Surface's kickstand) but I realize that's not practical with just a case.

I would like to get this because it adds a trackpad, but $300 for a keyboard case is a bit too high, even for an Apple product. The fact that I'm even considering is goes to show just how much I use my iPad Pro in a variety of situations. It was a far better investment than my 13" Macbook Pro.
But is anyone seriously advocating keeping a $600/week around after the quarantine? If we can get out the other side without millions of bankruptcies, foreclosures, and evictions, certainly that will contribute to a faster economic recovery. Sure, some white collar workers will be disincentivized from working... as long as the CARES act stays in effect. And you don't get unemployment if you quit, so no one will actively leave their jobs under this scheme.
Reports from Scientists to Stop Covid-19 [pdf]
Sure..but what does that have to do with Bezo's paper net worth?
The recently stated goal is to decay to 1 infection per million residents so that robust contact tracing works. Back of the envelope math puts that between 6 and 18 months of continued progress of the health order to get it to this level.

(60 or so in Santa Clara County ICU == ~6000 infections. ICU occupancy decaying by 40% per month; 0.6^15 months * 6000 = ~3 )

If you look at hospital admissions, instead, it's a bit less than a 40% decay per week. So we get something more like 5-6 months.

I don't see either of these as plausible. And even if we have lowered Rt to this point of decay for most subpopulations, I'm better there's a few where it's higher and that will eventually shallow out the decline. Not to mention the risks from areas with lower controls.

The IMHE model is very influential, but it has been forecasting an unrealistically quick decline in cases that has encouraged public health officials to seriously consider trying to get to this minimal level of cases.
