Totals are misleading due to each countries varied handling of the initial pandemic. Our peers are not still struggling with this the way we continue to struggle. I did some quick math based off the numbers here as an example[1][2]. The UK has had 3.0 COVID-19 deaths over the last three days per million people. The US has had nearly four times that many deaths with 11.8 per million people in that same 3 day time frame.

There are also these considerations:

1. Canada's immigration system is merit-based. Firms in Canada import skilled immigrants to fill tech vacancies in a way that US-based companies cannot. In Canada, it can take as little as a few weeks to get a temporary work permit for a foreign tech worker. Once they are in the country, they can apply for permanent residency through a provincial program and have PR status (this is like a green card) within a year.

2. Canadian tech firms are generally smaller. It is well known that smaller firms pay less across the board, in all industries, let alone tech.

> significant amount of engineering cost to continue to deliver static sites, even with reduced fidelity and a worse user experience

A few things to consider:

- The reputational damage of solidifying the narrative that Google drops projects without a good reason from the users' point of view.

- A bare-bones deletion/flagging UI does not seem like a huge undertaking (though as an engineer I realizing it's not exciting work); working things out with a non-profit such as the Internet Archive or a museum could be an even lower-cost solution.

- 90's websites are also hideous ("worse user experience") by today's standards, yet they have charm and are a product of their times. I don't think anyone would argue that they should be deleted on account of that, just like ancient pottery often has "badly drawn" human figures yet the value is in the cultural expression. There are digital conservation efforts by museums (e.g. restoring 80's arcade games); I'm sure that consulting with a digital conservator would have arrived at a very different treatment of this data.

That just suggests that building on top of proprietary internal infrastructure is a massive waste of value. If web app code were books, Google'd be burning the Library of Alexandria just because nobody else could read what the books were written in.

And that reiterates that breaking up Google would be good for Google's value. Not being able to rely on internal shortcuts means more dead products could be sold.
Yeah it's annoying.

Because I make lots of use of control, I usually map Right Command to Right Control, so I can easily thumb control, command or option at practically any time.

Is the implication of violence/aggression in said speech is a justified consequence?

> Said commenter has _completely_ missed the point

I'm I understanding this correctly, this is because it is against the principle of free speech, and people might conflate it with 1A? Isn't it preconditioned on everyone being on the same page about free speech? We've seen people having extreme opinions being shunned by the the rest of the cohort. How does this group then maintain cohesion, rather is it even possible to do so?

I really hate how sporadically these symbols come and go; it feels like they appear or disappear on new Apple hardware every other year. The old Apple Wireless Keyboard I'm typing this on just has ⌘. The laptop it's connected to has ⌘, ⌃, ⌥. I think I have an older laptop sitting around that has ⇧ and maybe even ⎋. I wish they'd at least start always including all the ones that show up in menus.

The issue is that by the time you learn you need that or that your X and Y didn't suffice, you've already got a hung connection. So, now you want to restart the connection, maybe adding those options, but Ctrl+C is not killing ssh because it's trying to pass that to the server, too. So what do you do? Terminate with `~.`, then you can add `-o ServerAliveInter=X`, etc.

Without the escape sequences, your options are to use another terminal to `kill` the ssh client, or kill the whole terminal and start ssh in another. The problem with the former is that it might imply having to login again into the machine that has the ssh client. The problem with the latter is that you might be in multiple nested ssh sessions after having jumped through various servers, and closing the terminal kills everything instead of just the one that got hung.

I don't think anyone cares anymore. Every ad network that slips through is probably propagating whatever data they get across all other ad networks instantly, so they are probably right not to care.

Plus, mine is but a grain of sand in China's endless beaches of data. Also, the only real solution is to use a shady VPN (that is probably owned by a government anyway).

It sucks and is terrible but I think that's just the way it is unfortunately.
> I've lived a year in such a place and, while there weren't genetic illnesses that I was aware of, I wouldn't use that place as evidence of how inbreeding is innocuous. Let's leave it at that.

So you... didn't see any genetic issues, thought that they were sub-par humans, and are blaming inbreeding? That's not a great look on your part.

I suggest we stick to studies and data, and leave it there instead.
I’m working at Lilt (lilt.com) right now, and this is exactly why I’m excited about the company ;)
The Dutch CDC (locally known as RIVM) concluded that risk to young children is very low, and Dutch schools have been open since early May based on this understanding.

In the Netherlands, 0.6% of the reported hospitalisations involved children under the age of 18, and 0 death have been reported under this age. Here's the summary page of the RIVM: https://www.rivm.nl/en/novel-coronavirus-covid-19/children-a...

Some googling reveals only corroborating reports that the case fatality (CFR) rate among young children is very low:

https://ec.europa.eu/knowledge4policy/sites/know4pol/files/j...

https://ourworldindata.org/mortality-risk-covid#case-fatalit...

https://www.publichealthontario.ca/-/media/documents/ncov/ep...

AFAICT if you just try to synthesize the existing research without prejudice, you'd have to conclude that the risk of young children dying from COVID-19 is very low.

Whether there is much risk of children -> adult transmission is more difficult to answer.
I completely understand a tax hike. But California is only proposing it on "millionaires". I say, lets raise everyone's taxes 1% to take care of this special situation. It seems immoral to vote to raise taxes on "someone else." We're all in this together.
I think that means you're using SO as a tool..?
AIUI the group size is a trade-off between the number of independently addressable vectors and the vector size. If the group size were always set to eight then you could only have four distinct vectors, whereas a group size of one would give you 32 vectors. You want to use the largest group size you can to take full advantage of the hardware, but you're limited by the number of vectors required by your algorithm. This is orthogonal to the size of an element within each vector.

The current RISC-V "V" draft standard requires the vector registers to be at least 32 bits wide (VLEN ≥ SLEN ≥ 32)[1], so a 128-bit vector with 16 8-bit elements may require up to four registers. Setting the group size to eight is a bit extravagant, but since the total number of elements was limited to 16 any extra registers in the group will not be affected. With a smaller group size you could potentially use those registers for something else.

P.S. I think you have the mask bits reversed. The instruction is "set if greater than" so v1 should be 0x0101010101010000 and v0 should be 0x0000000000000000 (corresponding to the |1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0| state shown in the article for the combined v1:v0 register group).

America has a lot of very expensive but not necessarily useful ships (see the Zumwalt-class clusterfudge). China has an inexpensive anti-ship ballistic missile system that can sink anything in the Pacific. America's Aegis system might stop some ASBMs some of the time with a favourable wind.

The prediction that "of course America will win this war easily, look at all the kit we have" does not have a good track record.

Ah, I see what you meant, I read it as implying that the "defund the police" people were driving the narrative I was referencing, not that the narrative I was referencing happened to fit the "defund the police" one.

Right, but communism has never been communism where it has been tried, that's the paradox of communism. trying to continually redefine the term to fit your narrative to that it's still pure is a boring exercise in bike-shedding.

I was fortunate to work for BBN briefly in the late 90s, and I visited their computer warehouse hoping to steal a hard drive for an old server. I regret not having a camera, because they had some pretty cool old hardware, including several long-obsolete IMPs.

That warehouse could easily have been converted to a museum; I hope someone preserved the hardware.
Names can be powerful. Owning a name like "fuse" implies that this is the thing called "fuse".

A flat "top level" namespace encourages treating names, especially short names, as something with intrinsic value. You end up with the same problems that the .com namespace has, such as name squatting and first mover advantage.

Qualifying all names removes this property from names and levels the playing field. There's no value in "owning" github.com/somename/blah. Or, to take the NPM approach, @somename/blah.
The perverse incentive is that people are forced to choose between the benefit and going back go a job that might not pay much more, thus distorting the supply curve for labor. If the benefit were unconditional like UBI, the supply curve would remain smoothly continuous.

> I've found Bazel and rules_rust provide a good alternative to Cargo, since Bazel can twist your build into any DAG you want, but most Rust users are unlikely to be excited about injecting 50MB of Java build system into the middle of their workflow.

If anyone is interested in another alternative to Cargo that doesn't involve Java, there is build2[1] and it's libbuild2-rust[2] module. It's a general-purpose build system so you can have mixed-language projects, etc.

Of course nothing is law. I just find this both an interesting perspective and good for entertaining a good conversation about programming languages and their longevity.
moreover, many office workers, those with seats roughly 6 feet apart or with a partition of some sort, don't even need the mask. the people who need masks are front-line workers of all sorts, from grocery clerks to medical workers, who interact with strangers for extended periods of time, not people sitting at computers for most of the day. sure, when you have a meeting, wear a mask, but an LED screen won't give you covid.
In the "LED Bulbs and Modules" categories at Mouser, there are no 670 nm LEDs.

In the "LED Indication - Discrete" category at Digi-Key, there are no 670 nm LEDs. (Digi-Key lets you filter on both peak and dominant wavelength. I assume peak is what we want here but it doesn't matter because there are no 670 nm dominant in those categories either).

In the category "LED Emitters" Mouser does list 670 nm in the filter, but checking out a few of those it seems they all actually specify peak wavelength is 650-670 nm.

I probably just missed it because I don't read German, but at led1.de I could not figure out how to filter on wavelength.

Assuming one is just looking for some through hole LEDs to whip something up on a breadboard, it looks like the closest readily available inexpensive LEDs are 660 nm peak and 638 nm dominant at around $0.40. Typical example [1] which is $0.41 for one, $2.95 for 10.

Since the article said 650-1000 nm, if we assume a peak of 700 nm works, then there are a lot of options, such as [2]. Dominant 635 nm. $0.29, 10 for $2.14.

I am shocked this isn't illegal yet. Basically what Google is doing in your example is selling Nike it's own trademark, with the subtle threat that if they don't, Google will use Nike's trademark to direct to a competitor instead.

The idea that Google can charge Nike to be the top result on a search for Nike is a form of subtle extortion, and I'd have to imagine trademark infringement. It's definitely a form of rent-seeking, as Google isn't actually helping advertise Nike: The people searching for it already knew where they wanted to go.
And thus taking it offline.

My concern isn’t that the files don’t exist any more,I think it’s nice to zip it and add it to the owners gdrive, my concern is that the files are no longer accessible on the web. So all the links are broken, no longer in search, etc.

This seems like a much larger issue than archiving and it would be cool to hear how you all decided to take the sites offline.

Is it a cost issue? I imagine hosting a billion static sites shouldn’t cost much.
