> It sounds reasonable in closed spaces (like in the examples you gave). But I'm reluctant to wear a mask outside in low-density area (I would if there were strong evidence it made any difference).

I agree with this. 100% mandatory outside of your home would mean I would have to wear a mask while running, which seems unnecessary when I see a grand total of 1 or 2 people on my entire run (and cross the street to keep plenty of distances between us).

This is one danger of applying a solution for 100% of everyone, everywhere without taking into account any nuances.

That said, mandating masks indoors + outdoors when you can't maintain 6 feet of distance seems like a no brainer. Perhaps in higher density areas it could be worth requiring them 100% of the time, even outdoors, but I'd like to see the data first.

Sounds like what you're saying is that those bonds and investments carried unrealised or unrepoeted risk.

That's the lenders' (and regulators') responsibility.

Fixed-income investors are still granted emergency income. Their previous lifestyles may no longer be sustainable, but they'll be able to afford food, clothing, shelter, and other true necessities.

SEEKING WORK - Remote / SF - Full stack developer who is exceptional in design as well and has built many startups over the years (probably about as good as you can do in hiring in terms of bootstrapping a new project).

More importantly - extremely experienced in React and have put together numerous large apps with it, I can pull a lot of stuff off the shelf that would take months of work for most teams. This isn't just a few snippets, but an entire React Native + React Native Web shared architecture, with UI kit designed to work well on both, all the glue code that takes forever to write, all put together in a (large) monorepo with Kubernetes, CI, CD, etc etc.

If you want an idea of what I'm capable of, [here's a repo](https://github.com/motion/orbit) from a very large project I worked on for a couple years and [here's the unfinished but mostly finished site](https://tryorbit.com). This repo isn't the one I'd help you use, we restarted and have improved it quite a lot.

Basically - if you need one person to take you from 0 to launch, including helping refine your idea, breakthrough on the design, and actually get the damn thing all the way working, get in touch. I can make the difference.

Just play that out. What a mess.
Thus, don't compress it.
That's good. The last time I had a look at Matrix clients it was a mess. IIUC the E2EE isn't enabled by default for the old Riot client, only RiotX and Riot web have it.

What happens if someone with old Riot client creates a room and someone with e.g. RiotX joins it, will it force E2EE on? Or will it fall back to non-E2EE messaging?

Pensions are earned when the work is done. They are paid in the future. It's easy to imagine a pension scheme that overpays to the point where the work becomes uneconomical but because the costs are delayed and/or borne by someone else it exists anyway.

Whether it is representative of the average scheme I have no idea. Anecdotally, my grandfather received a 100% of wage pension from the government after 10 years of service started in his mid 30's (Australia). The expected value of that would far exceed any self contribution scheme, even with tax advantages.

There is so much bullshit and lies about Qt5, I won't bother finishing that piece of crap:

Erik Engheim: Qt5 is 5GB
Actual fact (on arch linux): qt5-base = 64.07 MiB, qt5-declarative = 24.72 MiB, qt5-quickcontrols2 = 8.56 MiB

> Try having somebody look at a Qt design you made. “Oops sorry you need a 5 GB download to do that. Oh and btw you need to register an account on a website, login and search really hard to find the free version.”

...blatant lie, etc. I won't bother, this guy is nuts. Thanks god for Qt, it has its quirks but on the desktop it's the best we can do to dev cross-platform

Erik Engheim: Consider Qt Creator IDE which is quite minimalist, without Qt which it requires to run, requires over 200 MB
Actual fact: 108.03 MiB

> Surely as a species we can find the resources to buy these children some pills

We did: it's called universal healthcare - and many of our species' nation-states already use this system and have been seeing the overall positive results for about a century now - but some societies, for a variety of reasons, do not.
I wouldn't bet against MS regarding backward compatibility. I'm sure that everything running on x86 runs or will soon run on ARM. Perhaps a little slower yes, but your average consumer will be unaware of the difference beside that, so for every practical purpose Windows will have 'more complete suites of software available'.

There's one Windows software sector that this is not good enough for - games (really care about performance+latency, unlikely to ever port to ARM), but that sector is the least likely to want to switch to ARM in the first place. Gamers will go Windows+AMD anyway.

The bigger problem for Windows-on-ARM is that non-Apple desktop-class ARM processors are right now rather weak, and that affects all applications, even ported apps.
same - done with applying. has only consumed a massive amount of time with no results. perhaps im just from the island of misfit candidates but shifting focus for now to work on a reset as you mention. feel like im just too stale to continue that path. diving into perhaps some of the things @keenmaster mentioned, perhaps working on some certifications. either way, opportunity ebbs and flows (imo) just need to be better prepared to take advantage.

best regards to both of you (and anyone else reading feeling similar circumstances).
Poe's law I suspect despite the dripping sarcasm pointing out how stupidly exploitable and violent to the truth said "solution" would be.
It should have been standard from the beginning, since it likely would have prevented both crashes.
I'm not sure "richer than their parents" alone, is a fair metric for social mobility. If you're born in the top 20% and stay in the top 20% (not advancing higher), is that really a social concern? I mean, Bill Gates kids are unlikely to do better than their parents, but that's ok.

From what I've read, most social mobility metrics are from low quintiles to higher quintiles.

So if in 1984, 50% of children do better than their parents, and that 50% is mostly the bottom half (I have no idea if it is), then you're doing pretty good in terms of social mobility, no? People making below the median are doing better.

And I would also expect that social mobility would decrease as an economy "matures". If you're in a developing country seeing 7-10% GDP growth, then you'd hope mobility is higher than an economy growing at 1-2% per year.
Although I understand the rationale, lumping vague probability words like "may", "could", "might" as antagonyms (auto-antonyms) doesn't seem valid.

Whether you use "may" or "may not" would indicate the leanings of your null hypothesis / default assumption.
> The prevailing notion today is that your skin color, your chromosomes, your sexual orientation, and other markers of identity determine how you think.

Beautifully said.
"when they accepted new owners/investors."

IMHO we should be able to determine the amount of trust we can put on the app from the client alone. If FOSS client uses E2EE, no matter what the server starts doing when the service changes ownership will have an effect on it. Of course the new owner could e.g. start selling user metadata, but that's something you should kind of assume the service is doing anyway (just because they can), and if you can't take the risk, you should use something that prevents it by design (like Briar/Cwtch/Ricochet/TFC).

I wonder what you believe the word "feature" means.

I really like this one. It's similar to another one I've used: Just commit to doing the task for an extremely small amount of time (e.g. five minutes or even one minute). That dramatically reduces the perception of pain in your brain associated with the task, since you're containerising it down to a level where it cannot possibly not be achieved.

For particularly anxiety-inducing tasks I have been known to use a 30 second time box ;) Safe to say, this always tends to build the requisite momentum to follow through with a much greater bracket of time, even if it's not a conscious decision to do so (this is probably the key point - the mental shortcut).

Another tactic which can be useful when the procrastination is driven by perfectionism: embracing the notion of "wrong action". Simply by initiating some kind of action in the interests of the task at hand, and it doesn't matter how "wrong" you think that action might be. Obviously, since you have a base level of expertise, even your so-called "wrong" action will in fact be a useful step towards the goal. This is a bit like the "beginners mindset": stripping preconceptions that are obstructing any kind of progress.
One supposes Kenya and other, poorer nations in Africa will appreciate this advice, and then they'll snap their fingers and all will be well...
It's not constructors per se. It's what people put in to them. So MyType t also allocates in C, right (it'd be a stack allocation of sizeof(MyType) bytes)? But the difference is in C++ that could cause a bazillion heap allocations.

The problem gets magnified when you pass around these objects by value, thereby invoking copy constructors that also do those allocations, and doing value assignment, where you could have all those allocations happen again.

His comments predate r-value references, and a lot of stuff that r-value references have improved would be exactly the kinds of things where he saw a problem (though he'd hate the r-value solution).

I've been developing software professionally for a little over 12 years, and believe myself to be a fairly component. About a year ago I was flown in for an onsight interview for a fairly high level Sr engineer position at upstairs Amazon. During this interview I was handed a blank piece of paper and a pen to implement a fairly trivial programming task. I couldn't even put a couple nested for loops together. I guess over time it just becomes musscle memory. I was totally befuddled even just trying to write a curly brace.

I bet came across to them as totally incompetent fool... "Slipping through the cracks of multiple pre-screening technical interviews before the onsite..."
>> In contrast, a plain old filter is likely to be extremely effective. A HEPA filter will catch almost all particles big enough to contain a virus, and a MERV 13+ or better filter is quite good. All you need is a filter with enough surface area that a good filter has low pressure drip.

The problem with installing a MERV 13 filter in a normal HVAC system is that the pressure (usually) isn't rated for it and can cause serious damage to the motor(s) as you noted, which is more common than people think (definitely the case in my home system).

UV-C installation is fairly simple; though I agree they are power hungry and you need to keep them on most of the time with maximum one power cycle per 24 hour period. They're cheap upfront and do work on normal coronaviruses, though.

Still the real problem is very little state-funded research on the topic, or development of some mitigation techniques for businesses that must run indoors. It's once again fairly useless bureaucracy.
Right, for now.

We're not even a year into a multiple year pandemic. Yes, it's great those countries have it under control now, but I don't feel comfortable assuming it will stay that way.
What's wrong with being connected with communist party? In Western countries IT companies like Google, Dropbox or Facebook also cooperate with governments and even give high-paid jobs to government officials.

> New York sits at the bottom of the per-capita Covid charts in the US.

If New York were counted as its own country, it would have the highest per-capita COVID-19 death toll in the entire world. And yes, that's because Cuomo and DeBlasio refused to listen to their own public health departments and refused to learn the lessons of other countries that had been hit earlier[0].

> Were mistakes made at the beginning? Perhaps. Hindsight is always 20/20. However, data was scarce.

There was copious data - both from other countries and from other US cities - that indicated that New York needed to issue a shelter-in-place order at least a week before Cuomo agreed to. Even San Francisco had already shut down before Cuomo agreed to shut down NYC[1], despite San Francisco having fewer per-capita cases at the time. And even then, Cuomo waffled on whether to shut down the public schools.

There's plenty of evidence that Cuomo and DeBlasio ignored the scientific evidence that they had at the time, so you can't chalk up the high death toll to a lack of data.

> And shutting down a school district like New York's takes a lot of time.

It doesn't. Once Cuomo finally agreed to do it, it happened immediately. Where do you get the idea that it "takes time"?

There is also a lot of legacy 32 bit code and industry specific tools which are getting left behind. Plus a lot (most?) of Pro tools and games use C++ or something a bit lower level.

I know Adobe is dragging their feet supporting Windows ARM and there is very little gaming support for it either. Both Adobe and Unity have announced "Apple Silicon" ports, Adobe has been dragging their feet on Windows ARM support and I don't even think Unity has announced they will migrate to Windows ARM.

My comment about Zork comes from Don Gentner and Jakob Nielson's "The Anti-Mac Interface", which mentioned a simple search bar that could take more-or-less natural language instructions such as "make a new document called outlines" and the computer would make a new word processor document with that file name and maybe automatically title it for you. It sounds like it may be a similar thing to your command palette, or maybe something like the Unity HUD or those Rofi launchers I keep seeing i3 users showing off.

Come to think of it, I usually type into my Google Assistant app on my phone, rather than talk to them with voice, so there's no need to make these voice exclusive.

The DSLR captures pictures and then you post-process them. The phone can dynamically adjust what it captures, and potentially capture way more data (quickly slurping a gigabyte of image data into RAM) than a DSLR can push to persistent storage in an acceptable timeframe.

Together with the phone always being in my pocket, while a DSLR is bulky, I've gone completely with the phone. I just wish the computational photography developers and the camera engineers would come together and make something that uses the far superior hardware of the DSLR combined with the far superior software originally designed for phones.

Central banks are the originators of money, itself a socially and legally recognised measure and transactor of debts. There is no resource constraint on supply.

Trust may fall, inflation may occur, there may be too much money chasing too few goods and services. But it's largely axiomatic that a central bank cannot run out of money.

Regionally, some preferred currency may emerge, but given that a pandemic is literally everywhere, there are no regional banks which are entirely unaffected by the situation. (Some may be to a greater or lesser extent, and regional trust shifts might occur.)

But addressing your hypothetical; that's definitionally impossible:

A central bank, reserve bank, or monetary authority is an institution that manages the currency and monetary policy of a state or formal monetary union,[1] and oversees their commercial banking system. In contrast to a commercial bank, a central bank possesses a monopoly on increasing the monetary base in a financial crisis.
