"Overpays" is relative, certainly there are no shortage of examples compared to which it underpays, but it does seem to be a trend that smarter (and physically harder) jobs have poorer pay. I wasn't even including the FAANG/SV premium and that's still true.

It's a pity. I would love to apply more brain power in my day job, but there's such a negative incentive for doing so that I can't stomach the cost. So I've got a hobby. Oh well.

People can and do pay for "free" web services like Firefox. They pay with their personal data. This is exchanged into regular currency via the advertising industry. Services that cannot or will not exploit this income stream will inevitably run into financial trouble.

Economically, spending personal data makes sense for a lot of people. Unlike money, you generate personal data continuously and effortlessly. You can spend it multiple times, many people spend it with little obvious downside, and the process is completely frictionless. Consider the effort involved with setting up, maintaining and eventually cancelling a subscription to a money-financed service, vs. a data-financed one, which you simply start and stop using at your leisure.

Some people do not like this situation. They object to the entire notion of personal data being used as a currency. They attempt to prevent it via advocacy and legislation. Advocacy does not seem to work, at least on its own. Many people, if you explain the situation to them in terms of privacy, will express a theoretical desire not to trade away their personal data. However, their behaviour is not consistent with this. Faced with a choice between using data-financed and money-financed services, the majority chooses the former.

Legislation attempts to resolve this dilemma, either by outlawing the use of personal data as a currency at all, or more often by making the spending of personal data more a onerous and explicit process, in the hope that a closer equivalence in terms of convenience combined with repeated reminders of people's stated preference to maintain their privacy will alter their behaviour.

Personally, I'm skeptical this type of legislation will succeed. Clicking a few checkboxes and cookie banners is still far more convenient than giving my credit card details to every single website or app I want to use. And most humans act in opposition to their stated ideals and desires in myriad ways, every single day.

The forced cadence of certain topics actually does have a part to play. Imagine if you could have skipped all those English classes back then. Guess what? You would be learning it all right now! Just like you're _re_learning it right now. Why? Because you now have intrinsic motivation to learn it. Having entirely skipped it, you might even have realized a lot sooner the actual need instead of limping along with whatever informational crutches you managed to walk away with. The fact that we leave little room to teach the need of a subject, and force feed it in a prescribed manner rather than allowing exploration, is all commingled together into the failure mode being discussed.

Allowing children to pick what they want to explore and modeling the education after exploration is part of the baseline for Montessori education.

The intuition is supposed to be that knowledge is on top of something like a mountain. It is easier to climb up a small hill than it is to climb up Mt. Everest. This is because (in the analogy, obviously in real life it's more than just this) Mt. Everest is steeper than the hill your house is on top of.

In other words, the issue with your intuition is that the speed at which you go up the curve is constant, but in the saying, you go up the steeper curve much more slowly than you do the slight curve.

Does that help?

I 'follow' these theories. Most are junk. Most have a hinge-pin of a idea that if pulled out the whole thing collapses. The supporting evidence is usually designed to make that idea stronger. I use the a modified mythbusters classification of them. 'busted', 'unlikely', 'plausible', 'confirmed'. I have never heard the snoweden is a totally made up generated person before. Other than he is a CIA actor theory. That just means I am not an expert on this. But it could be 'sorta plausible'. NSA is probably a good generation ahead of most of the world tech wise. They have the compute power for it and the brain power for it. So a deepfake from them is 'plausible'. But I lean towards unlikely in that case. As what we see from deepfakes is kind of weird and strange. Some bit of him 'popping' is probably a camera roll shutter thing. He seems like he is a guy who did something, because what he saw was bad. When something jumps from 'busted' over to the 'confirmed' category that is when you can raise an eyebrow. That happens very rarely. The 2016 email dumps of Hillary did that in a few cases. Which was surprising.

As to how you can end up 'there'. Well it mostly depends on what news feeds you let into your life, and do not go into them with a health dose of deep skepticism. Youtube can get a bit stuck on particular things as its alg feeds on engagement. Watch 1 video from someone and you have kind of exhausted your other threads of thought in their system and it will go hog wild and show you a different class of stuff if it is not on their 'do not show this to people list'. Remember ML/AI is basically very fancy cubic spline fitting across many nodes with some calculus thrown in and N stages. But if you end up between two points you can get strange results. But a computer does not know a garbage result from a good one. So it gives it to you with a 90% confidence.

If something jumps categories some people like that idea. They like the idea they can say 'Ive know about that for years'. I think it also gives comfort to them if they can not make sense of an idea. But my jedi mind skills are weak so I can not read minds :)
> Mozilla isn't just about the browser. It's about free and open internet.

Which is contradictory with what they have actually been doing for a decade, which is pushing, pushing and pushing again for Web-everything and everything-Web everywhere.

Even the items you list after, in Mozilla strategy, were meant be implemented inside and around a single piece of tech: a Web browser, over a single protocol (HTTP(S)); also replacing classical libraries with Web-tech (that's now new since the interface of their products has always been based on some form of it, but they kept on pushing the pedal of webisation).
Won't this take too long to run human trials on for safety/efficacy for it to really matter? My understanding is that a vaccine will likely come out within 6 months or so. They mention that it's an older compound, but sounds like they made some novel changes to it. Since this situation is so much a race against time, we are probably better off focusing on older, better-understood compounds that don't need to be tested for as long.
I think the assumption that tricks most people is that the host will never eliminate the door with the prize. Since this makes sense for a real TV show (it would kind of crappy from the host to eliminate the door with the prize) sometimes it goes unmentioned.

I would recommend this method for documenting all functions, processes, APIs. It can be seen as making explicit what intended inputs, and outputs are, and adding layers to describe input validation to eliminate (buggy behaviors), and testing/fuzzing to prevent introduction of risks, and enabling exception code to mitigate unavoidable error conditions upon process completion. The bowtie method really encapsulates software behavior quite well.

If you want to call Cromwell a hypocrite, the most tenable and intellectually honest but still ungrounded point of attack is that his support of liberty of conscience did not extend to Catholics.

His institutional anti-Catholicism and his suppression of the rebellion in Ireland were not aberrational by his context. That he was successful in achieving these objectives (e.g. defeating an insurrection and effectively criminalizing public Catholicism during the Protectorate) is the aberration. Cromwell was competent and that was his actual sin. He also happened to believe that self-directed (i.e. not dogmatic to a foreign power, e.g. Rome) conscience was a virtue to be established and maintained and for that should be seen as another facet of him as a human being.

That said, I don't disagree that the ethnically Irish have every reason to be livid that it happened, or that comparable events preceded and succeeded it through history, but to act as if Cromwell was categorically evil for what he did to the Irish is like saying America is categorically evil for firebombing Dresden in 1945. Yes, it was an atrocity given the perspective that distance and the luxury of time and peace provide, but it doesn't capture the whole provenance of the situation.

I wish people would stop focusing on crime as something to stop after the fact and focus on preventative measures.

There wouldn’t be demand for illegal firearms without gangs.

Why do people join gangs? Probably because of a lack of career and education opportunities, and family problems because of a lack of career and education opportunities.

Of course, I’m only guessing. I’m sure some very smart people know exactly why people join gangs.

I think the entire reason the UK voted for Brexit and the US “voted“ for Trump is because of increasing wealth disparity and decreasing standard of living for the bottom half of the ladder. People want to “shake things up” when they’re backed into a corner like this.

Until governments start thinking about working for making the life of the common person better, crime and gangs is what they’ll get.

> Please don't tell me you've never encountered post-install errors with Windows and Mac software.

I don't remember the last time that happened. Not that I'd exchange my ArchLinux setup against either but you gotta be honest - installing stuff on windows and mac is a solved problem.

However the number of times a Debian or Ubuntu update borked something... that I don't have enough fingers nor toes - I had at least 3 installs of debian that I fucked up enough that I couldn't recover them in the last ten years - in comparison the last time that happened for me on windows was in 98' era. Not that windows doesn't suck - I still get the occasional BSOD even on win10 while Linux kernel panics are... uncommon for me but that's just my experience).
This is a rather typical structure of the non-profit world.

Mozilla Corporation is a sub of Mozilla Foundation. Mozilla Foundation controls Mozilla Corporation shares. Mozilla Foundation should based on the bylaws of Mozilla Corporation either have the board fire the C suite or replace the board of the Mozilla Corporation with those that will fire the C suite.

Mozilla Foundation is not doing that because it is not interested in changes. Running a large non-profit is a low effort, low risk, super lucrative job. The only way to affect Mozilla Corporation and Mozilla Foundation is for donors refuse to donate for Mozilla Foundation until it addresses the governance issues.
You don’t think those are important?
It isn't the same thing (I hope!) but it reminds me of McIntyre Powder. Miners were told by their company to use a fine aluminum/aluminium dust they breathed in before going to work in a mine.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31532354/

"McIntyre Powder (MP) is a finely ground aluminum powder that was used between 1943 and 1979 as a prophylaxis for silicosis. Silicosis is a chronic lung disease caused by the inhalation of crystalline silica dust and was prevalent in the Canadian mining industry during this time period."

Cytokine production wasn't something I was able to include, simply because I was trying to cover a lot of ground in 1200 words! I alluded to it in the discussion about the cascade of events that occur when Vitamin D binds to immune cells. Cytokine production is one of those events. Still, I'm not completely convinced that Vitamin D deficiency directly leads to a higher chance of dying due to cytokine production. It's another one of those areas where we have a correlation, and a plausible explanation for causation... but it's not straightforward.
And yes, the lack of sunlight is one explanation for why we seem to have so much Vitamin D deficiency... then again, maybe we see so much because we are defining deficiency the wrong way. There are so many things to discuss, and hopefully I can get to all of them.
It's really annoying that press releases tend to overhype research so much. As far as I understand from skimming the paper, they created a synthetic antibody against the Spike protein of SARS-CoV2 that binds very tightly.

There is no clinical data in the paper, they measured how tightly the nanobody they designed binds to the Spike protein and they did some neutralization assays against SARS-CoV2.

The advantages of the nanobodies compared to full antibodies sound interesting, for sure. But this is still a paper pretty solidly in the basic research area, and quite far from clinical use.

I found an article about this research that puts it into a bit more context:

https://www.statnews.com/2020/08/11/scientists-create-potent...

> While the lab results look promising, experts in the field advise caution because important work has not been done to test the compound in animals. “The critical thing is animal data. We’ve found things that are very potent in vitro that do nothing in vivo,” said Dimiter Stanchev Dimitrov, a professor of medicine who directs the Center for Antibody Therapeutics at the University of Pittsburgh and has created antibody-based therapeutics for numerous viruses including SARS and MERS, two other coronaviruses. He said it can take months to collect the needed data in animals. “Once these are tested in animal models, then I can get excited.”

> I used the normal report button, I haven't picked anything special.

When you reported the tweet, you picked the "covered by Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz" option, which means you're demanding that Twitter comply with Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz to act on a violation covered under the German law.

It's clear you live in Germany because Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz reports are only available in Germany, and given that Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz reports have a legally defined scope that only applies in Germany, I'd guess that it's treated differently from reports for regular violations (like "It's suspicious or spam" or "It's abusive or harmful").

Other regular options like the "abusive" one is much shorter and easier than picking out sections of a law.
