The BBC should 'reissue' these paying the rights holders accordingly. Right now musicians are not getting revenue from PRS as no pubs/shops are playing music right now.

Some 'Peel Sessions' got released on 'Strange Fruit' including the seminal 'the orb' epic track "A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules From The Centre Of The Ultraworld (Loving You)" that was put together by Jimi Cauty, who subsequently left 'the orb' to be one half of The KLF. Hence the Peel session of The Orb and the original pressing of the aforementioned track were the only truly awesome stuff they released.

Incidentally this excellent blogpost of Peel Sessions does not include this particular 1989 classic.

Note that first time round you would wait until Thursday 11 p.m. to tune in to John Peel on FM radio and record the good stuff with a spare cassette. You might record over that cassette a week or two later. Everything could be ordered through an independent record shop if you wanted it for real, expect one of a thousand pressings though.

You would need to remember names of artists and their tracks from the radio, no rewind unless you had that tape running. Discographies didn't exist like now so you never knew if an alias of an artist was the artist you knew already or a new one.

I respect people that piece all of this together today, however, somewhere in the BBC they have this archived and they could sort out the licensing problems the way it works on streaming platforms.

Licensing problems are mostly due to defunct labels and who gets the royalties. For instance, if in 1988 'A Guy Called Gerald' was part of '808 State' on the 'Creed' label, then, in the Peel session, if it get replayed, where does the money go? The other members of the group went to be signed by ZTT leaving A Guy Called Gerald to do his own stuff in a different direction. The Peel session fell in-between albums with tracks from the old and the new. Sorting out the monies is tricky for the BBC to do but YouTube manage monetisation easy enough.

The reddit post still describes an intrinsic value theory. All intrinsic value theories are discredited, not just this or that formulation of the LTV.

It's fairly trivial to reason from any given intrinsic value theory to absurdities, this is basically the foundation of marginalism and the last 150-odd years of economics.
County officials were ready to let them open a week from today, but wanted a little more review and input into Tesla's plans. But apparently they ran out of patience.

Musk's previous defiance of the health order (without all these super-special controls) likely -does- encourage health officials to make extra-super-sure Tesla is in compliance, though.

It appears from this that the county has simply said Tesla’s reopen plan is insufficient. They aren’t opposed in principle to Tesla reopening.

I understand the immediate pragmatism, but if a gov't wants to make laws / rules it's on them to staff it functionally. We dont tell a restaurant they have to close because there are no health inspectors available. (I am assuming here, correct me if that's wrong)

Arrests just concentrate people in jails and cost the city/county money.

Instead, cite them for the $1000 violation. Frequently.

> The chief executive announced the plans on Twitter Monday: “I will be on the line with everyone else,” he wrote. “If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me.”

Translation: my employees now must weigh the consequences of losing their jobs on the one hand vs. being arrested on the other.

What guarantees, if any, has Tesla has given its employees in the event of prosecution and or other consequences of violating state law?
You would not be arrested. At most you would be cited. It’s also on public lands where there is existing precedent for fining for something along the lines of trespassing.

This is instead on private property and probably protected under free assembly.

Efficiency always drives out competition. There's still room for small merchants for anyone who doesn't mind paying the premium to shop there. But not many people are willing (or able) to pay that much extra to be greeted by a familiar local face.

And no, I don't think the supply chains are actually more robust for local stores. I've had better luck at the local Wal-Mart than at other stores for TP and other hard-to-get items. If anything, early on, some people weren't checking the smaller stores, but after they got wiped out, they've yet to recover and yet Wal-Mart has.

There are still supply chain issues, don't get me wrong, but mostly they're upstream a bit from the customers. Think of things like meat packing plants having trouble finding any way to operate safely or having a lot of production that had to shift from commercial packaging to retail packaging and distribution.

Over time I think it became clear that Bitcoin was misnamed. If it's like any coin, it's a $1700 1 oz Gold coin - not the nickels and dimes people generally think of. It's a great store of value (if you have a strong stomach to short-term fluctuation) but not great for small transactions.

Nope. An honest man of integrity already knows how to play the bagpipes and doesn't need to lie or name-drop to seem important. Bullshit is only appropriate to save the face or lives of others, or as entertainment amongst people already savvy enough to see through it.

Your link doesn't agree with your text. The TESLA documents explicitly say that they are not providing PPE to everyone, but that people can bring their own masks.

If Tesla has not provided you with one, you may bring or make your own following the Center for Disease Controls guidance
Rightly or wrongly, many people are avoiding testing due to stories of health officials removing children or other people from homes where someone tests positive.
Just to put this in some context, but the Quest Diagnostics and other tests currently available are good but not great. For example, from their website there are the following disclaimers:

This test has not been reviewed by the FDA.

Positive results may be due to past or present infection with non-SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus strains, such as coronavirus HKU1, NL63, OC43, or 229E.

Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly in those who have been in contact with the virus. Follow-up testing with a molecular diagnostic should be considered to rule out infection in these individuals.

Results from antibody testing should not be used as the sole basis to diagnose or exclude SARS-CoV-2 infection or to inform infection status.

https://www.questdiagnostics.com/home/Covid-19/HCP/

Other sources state the following, however its important that not a lot of research has been done to validate the manufacturers specifications, of these tests such as specificity. Only over time and independent review will these numbers be more accurately quantified:

"The company started out using the Euroimmun AG Anti-SARS-CoV-2 ELISA IgG antibody test and then added the Abbott IgG antibody test. It is continuing to use both tests, although the Abbott test has become the primary platform. Euroimmun is a division of Perkin Elmer.

Both tests have received emergency use authorization from the FDA; only 10 serology tests have received this designation from the agency. The Euroimmun IgG test has a reported specificity of 96% and sensitivity of 65%, while the Abbott test claims a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 99.5%. The FDA has just cracked down on serology tests requiring supporting validation documentation to be submitted within 10 business days of an initial notification."
Where would the climate crisis be if we diverted all the energy spent on Bitcoin mining into carbon sequestration?
All the work in Bitcoin mining is going toward making it harder for someone to rewrite the history of Bitcoin transactions (which would allow them to take back sent Bitcoin). More miners means it's harder for any attacker to rewrite the transaction history. The protocol incentivizes people to mine (and simultaneously solves the problem of deciding who to distribute newly-minted Bitcoin to) by distributing the fixed amount of newly-minted Bitcoins between the miners every ten minutes.

Bitcoin's security relies on the true blockchain having more Proof of Work in it than any attacker could create. A Proof of Work value is a proof that you had a computer spend about a certain amount of processing time tied to a specific input value. Someone with one computer can't produce Proof of Works as fast as someone with multiple comparable computers. Someone trying to take-back a Bitcoin transaction and create an alternate blockchain with their transaction removed can't create Proof of Works as fast all of the world's Bitcoin miners working together (unless they have a secret god-tier supercomputer, or somehow convinced most of the world's existing Bitcoin miners to work for them instead).

Arresting the factory workers (who quite legitimately want to be paid, and will have a tougher time getting unemployment if they refuse to work) seems to not really be the just answer here - it's not their decision.
The focus is not on how we can make this safe, it is how can we control and lock this down.

Different approaches, maybe similar outcomes, but one involves much less economic activity.
It's not immediately about whether Tesla's precautions are sufficient, it's about government asserting its control during a public health emergency, which seems pretty reasonable. It's a public health emergency. 80k are already dead. The fact that Elon Musk doesn't believe it's serious (although his precautions indicate that he does), says that he just doesn't believe the law applies to him, which is grandstanding at best. Other places that have lifted restrictions too soon are seeing immediate resurgences.

It’s only for volunteers.
Except that walking outside and getting groceries are a choice and calculated risk, with VERY limited exposure given most shopping trips are brief...by contrast, Tesla opening their factories means workers are forced to choose between losing their jobs (and presumably healthcare) or going to work in a potentially risky workplace for hours at a time, and trusting that their employer (who doesn't believe covid is that bad) is implementing safe measures to protect them, while blatantly flouting the law?

Not at all. This order is like saying “unless you have a driver’s license, you’re not allowed to drive.”

> There's nothing special about walking outside or getting groceries that make's it more/less safe than building a car, when sufficient protections are in place.

Presumably workers have already been notified of this and sent their shifts with a stern "if you're a no-show for your shift, this is your punishment".

I expect we'll see it soon, considering how many thousands of workers there are.
A better example would be if the government hired health inspectors who say "I saw a rat, you need to shut down" without also saying "Here is my peer-reviewed article about why rats are bad" - which they absolutely do.
Not every useful distinction need be relevant to moral judgement.

> You want to see him in jail even though you're not sure that he has done something that is both illegal and (ethically) wrong?

You missed the conditional "If".

> You want to see him in jail

I think a lot of people are sick of seeing companies that break the law get by with just paying fines. Frequently on HN you see comments calling for Mark Zuckerberg to face jail time over privacy violations. It's stated that jail time would change his stance, whereas fines do nothing to curtail Facebook's behavior.

The thought is that companies view fines as a slap on the wrist. Fines also tend to be smaller than the opportunity cost of making violations.

Now that there's a disease going around that kills our old folks, it seems appropriate to call for punishment of those in power that knowingly violate the orders. This disobedience could actually take lives. This is a time when health and local government officials should be able to wield power.
How should an employee react in this situation?

Your boss tells you to come to work, and the govt is saying your workplace should be closed.

Can you fire someone for refusing to report when the county is supposed to be closed?

What an awful spot to put your employees in. If you come in, you might get arrested, if you don’t, you might get fired.
Beaches are not closed where I am, and there is almost no risk at the beach. I'm much more worried about the 80 people in my complex and the shared laundry, elevators, stairs, door handles etc.

Does logic / science no longer apply in public health?
Hello. I'm Leonard Nimoy. The following tale of alien encounters is true. And by true, I mean false. It's all lies. But they're entertaining lies. And in the end, isn't that the real truth? The answer is No.
1. There's too many people violating local orders across the United States to arrest them all.

2. Putting them in jail is actually worse for their health than almost any other activity.

3. IANAL but I doubt many of the local orders would hold up in a higher court.
>>> ..they're exempt from movement and mask restrictions ...

There's a negative repercussion of people around such folks getting a false-impression that masks are not a serious need (if this is in question, that's a different discussion).
It also creates a possibility of visible 'haves' and 'have-nots', which can cause trouble.

I think having uniform messaging for movement/masks irrespective of antibody presence will remove variability in response from people.
That’s great. Most people probably haven’t spotted it (took me a few years to clock the connection) but Tom Ravenscroft (on radio 6) is his son. As you’d expect, he has a fairly encyclopaedic knowledge of music and you’ll always pick up good stuff on his shows.

It's an important question whether we want to live in a world where government has power to close access to beaches, and everything else.
There's two components to tests:
- random testing to discover new infections and to gauge how effective your measures are
- targeted testing done as part of contact tracing - this is limited by how many people you have doing the legwork tracking down people and testing them - then quarantining anyone who's found to be positive

Here in NZ we've reached the point where random tests are finding nothing, we're contact tracing at least 3-4 deep (a friend's family was tested who's spouse worked with someone who had a contact who had tested positive). At this point we're getting a couple of new cases per day for a couple of weeks, all from known sources already locked down - we started opening up (from a much deeper lock down than California) about 10 days ago, in 2 days we'll be opening restaurants, schools, most stores (but not bars for a week) crowds will be limited to ~10 for a while
That is really cool. I had no idea anyone was still using it.
Just a reminder Musk said this virus was no worse than the common cold. Musk also said the new cases would drop to 0 in April.

How many times does someone have to be wrong before we can stop accepting their input on a subject?
This is crazy high standard to invoke during a public health emergency--the gov't would have to suddenly increase staff by orders of magnitude on short notice, causing huge amounts of inspections at a time when preventing non-essential contact is the most basic action than can be collectively taken.
How would you be doing your part by getting tested? Shouldn't you quarantine either way to "do your part"?
Thanks for giving it a go! I think the lack of a tutorial really makes learning the game tricky, but I appreciate the effort nonetheless.
Which is actually quite valuable as transparency from decision makers makes it much easier to evaluate the quality of their decisions and to understand whether they are being foolishly capricious or they are using facts and reasonable judgement about what should be done about an ongoing crisis.

Then if you disagree with the government's position, you can base an objection on facts (e.g., one of these metrics is not set at an appropriate level or is not impactful enough to guide decision making) instead of just yelling that the government is wrong and should change what they are doing.
As far as I see, your link has nothing to do with 1.11.4 release. May be you wanted to link to a specific page?
Personally, I don't think we should arrest nearly as many people as we do.

That said, if Elon were arrested, he may actually spend some of his time and resources to affecting change in the legal/justice sphere that he has largely avoided/flaunted thus far.
I'm hopeful on this as well. Having lived both in NYC and rural areas (and places in between), I think that people shouldn't have to live in a place like NYC just for the money.

Not everyone can be remote, but my job seems to be doing okay with it, and I'm inclined to include a 100%-remote requirement for future job hunts. And to move to a lower-density area next time that comes up.
On the flip side the feds might pick a sub-optimal solution, as opposed to 50 separate independent actors who can try different things and converge on a best answer.

You wouldn't treat a retailer differently based on the goods being luxury. But this is manufacturing, not retail. Also, they're not asking to be allowed to continue manufacturing because they sell high-end goods, but rather because the goods they sell are automobiles, which are (as a category) considered necessary.
The amount of rulemaking differs substantially in normal times, and in a crisis like this. So does the amount of time available for review. For them to be able to do what you want, we'd need the government to be big enough to vet everything properly in a crisis. A government that big is going to find ways to occupy itself in normal time, to make use of all that extra capacity.
