I’ve heard the evidence is mixed for lockdown but I believe most of that evidence is very fuzzy comparing various (poor) degrees of compliance from ok to bad. Didn’t NYC peak almost exactly 2-3 weeks after the lockdown just as would have been expected? And at the extreme of everyone isolated in their apartment 24 hours a day the virus could not really spread.
This is uncalled for. Lot of exercises cannot be done at home without required equipment unless you are a Hollywood actor and have a huge mansion with private gym and equipment. Think of weight lifting, power lifting etc. Impossible to do at home for most people (meaning not rich 0.1%).
> People should be able to decide if they want to die from Coronavirus or live a semi-paralyzed life in fear. If you are that concerned, then you can confine yourself at home until everything is over.

The amount of nuance that you refuse to integrate with your worldview is staggering. I'm shocked to see people write comments like this on Hacker News of all places.

I know this point has been beaten to death already (which contributes to my surprise that you'd even make a claim like this), but have you entirely forgotten about people who rely on younger, more able bodied people AND probably wouldn't survive a full blown coronavirus infection? How do these people "decide if they want to die from Coronavirus"?
GCE uses this tool to allow a central metadata server to manage users: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/guest-agent#account-m...

The host VM had this running. Since they had access to the host's network (due to running in a `--network=host` container), they were able to spoof the response from the metadata server to say a new user should be added to `.authorized_keys`, with their supplied public key. The guest agent automatically adds the new users to the `sudoers` group, also giving them sudo access.
The use case is checking for malware.

macOS is, in fact, susceptible to malware. (A notable example hit HN just the other day [1].) I don't think Apple has ever literally claimed that it isn't susceptible, though they may have sort of hinted at it (especially at the height of the "Get a Mac" campaign). To be fair, there has not been very much macOS malware then or now, though it's questionable how much that has to do with macOS's design as opposed to factors like the size of the target userbase.

It is monetization.

A guy I know worked for a PC manufacturer years ago. The offered a windows version of a machine, and folks asked why they didn't offer a linux version.

A linux version would cost more money, because they made a non-trivial amount of money by loading up the PC with shovelware.

I've seen this countless times at companies. The decision makers do not want to greenlight projects that do not make money, or worse that cost them money.

So I think if you follow the money you'll find a mobile app makes them more money.

Yes, I curated their content, but I do believe too much of any one thing is bad. We didn't get a phone until I was a 11 or 12, not because of beliefs, but money. I became a real bookworm to the detriment of getting outside and exercising for a few years. I try to mix everything up a bit. I also believe in a diversity of intelligence. Each one of my children has a different angle on intelligence. It's amazing to see the different manifestations even within the same family. I think what we think is good content evolves every 5 to 10 years; a study comes out refuting a solidly held confidence in a technique or manner of raising children. I think if you keep it diverse, and try and challenge yourself, your kids and you gain tremendously.
I feel the biggest problem with economics is that it's very infused with ideology, which makes it even harder to say what's true or not. There's a lot of what I would call "arm-chair economics" – entire government policies are based on nothing more than conjectures, guesses, and ideological preferences of so-called "economists". Okay, maybe guesses and conjecture is the best we have to go on, but at least be honest about what it is.

This is the case for some other social sciences as well, but I have the impression it's (much) worse for economics. The effects are certainly a lot more impactful.

I have been using clarity.fm, they offer a subset of these features. Overall I really like Clarity, primarily because the product is very simple and doesn't try to do too much.

I have two problems with Clarity though, and I'll be trying out epihub for these reasons. The first is that the conference bridge that Clarity provides is just a voice bridge, which I actually really like for simplicity's sake, but it's POTS only and sometimes international callers have a hard time connecting or have audio problems. The billing is based on the length of the conference call, so it's not super easy to back out to a Zoom call. Second, Clarity doesn't really support anything like a 'class', only one-on-one sessions, and I'd like to start doing classes.

Looking forward to giving epihub a shot!

Can anyone from outside the US chime in on whether the equivalent situation can happen in their country?
There is no problem to reach a big pressure by itself.

There is problem to reach it for this amount of fuel using the same amount of fuel as energy source. The flow is fixed, so pressure is proportional to pump power, which is a part of turbine power, which takes energy from that fixed flow. To get more energy, bigger temperatures are needed - on both fuel-rich and oxidizer-rich turbines, and that's limited by existing materials.

Of course, there are many complexities with efficiencies, balances (spinning, two turbopumps), thermal expansions and contractions (LOX is about 90K), cooling of turbine blades, if any, control of pressure feedbacks (e.g. the bigger power on turbine - the bigger pressure on pumps, which supplies fuel to gas generator and then to turbine, so we have a positive reinforcement loop here)... No, the problem isn't the pressure - it's the pressure given all the constraints of the leading edge rocket engine.

This could go wrong very quickly if the customer solely relied on the instance being isolated from the external world, and didn’t protect it with a proper password.

Anyone care to expand on that? Would that be common practice?
That concept of exploitation makes zero sense on a microeconomic or macroeconomic level. If there is any money available to expand that is charging more money than they need to survive. A company could always pay their workers more unless it brought them to precarity - even the actual workers wouldn't want that and they are the direct beneficaries of said excess! That would be like your drug dealer staging an intervention.

Those are essentially the same thing, as long as the CEO makes the same as an entry level worker. Because the keyword is equal share. Nobody is elevated financially above another.

You could still have surplus, but workers get to vote on how much that should be, and a flat-style management system still could have managers over others who manage projects, they could pitch budget proposals and vote. Then at the end of the year whatever is left over goes out equally to all (or based on # of hours worked), as a bonus or dividend payout.

But most factories the CEO makes 50 million, the worker might get a 3% match in a 401k, and $15 an hour. In other words the ceo is making 300x more, and is definitely not worth that much. Why are today's CEO's better / worth more than 1980's, by 3-4x as much, when the average worker is not, even though productivity of workers has skyrocketed since the 80's?

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I think you're misinterpreting what kindergarten is in the States. Kindergarten here is the first year of schooling, and is associated with primary schools. Generally, 5 is the minimum age to start, with a cutoff month. Thus, the kids are expected to be taught in the structural way of school.
That should probably be an option, but I'll take ownership of my hardware and data not you or Apple. I don't mind having the checks in there as long as I can overrule them. Otherwise you just get the Epic treatment and you don't really own your hardware, you're just loaning it from Apple and you can only do what they let you do. That, to me, is a losing proposition in the long haul.

When herd immunity is reached new cases don't hum along at a lower but steady rate, as they are in New York State. Herd immunity means that infected individuals can't find enough non-infected people to infect, R0 is well below 1, meaning that cases exponentially drop to zero. Check out the chart for New York's new cases, it isn't happening.

I don't think we are approaching the total death toll of World War II.

> Around 1960, Lisp and ALGOL changed that.

It was later than 1960 on many platforms, including IBM mainframes, where Lisp and ALGOL were always fringe languages, primarily limited to the computing research community, while the vast majority of mainframes were instead being used for business and government data processing, and numerically-oriented scientific computing. On IBM mainframes, it really started when PL/I decided to borrow a lot of concepts from ALGOL, but PL/I wasn't generally available until at least 1966.

A number of later developments increased the demand for reentrancy/recursion: transaction monitors such as CICS; the advent of C and C++ on mainframe platforms (which didn't happen until the 1980s); the decision to add ALGOL-style features to COBOL and FORTRAN.
You're conflating two things, currency exchange rate changes and inflation.

Inflation to a first approximation is wage rises. "Too much money chasing too few goods" is the traditional formulaion.

Western economies have split. For the majority wages are not rising. For the affluent minority incomes are rising sharply. So we see little inflation in the goods and services bought by poor people, but steep price rises in goods bought by rich people.

The latter are mainly collectibles: stocks and bonds, real estate, artworks, gold and jewels, cryptocurrencies, etc.

We won't see Zimbabwe-style hyperinflation unless there is massive redistribution.

> But if the receiver moves away from you fast enough (I think 0.5c should do it, but don't quote me on that one), then, from the receiver's perspective, the transmission will happen instantaneously.

Why? I mean, I get that time is progressing more slowly for the receiver because it's traveling at relativistic speeds, but instantaneous arrival of anything doesn't seem to follow from that, and therefore...

> If the receiver moved even faster than that, the signal would seem to arrive before it had been sent(!)

...neither does this.

Further, the whole point of wormholes (in the context of superluminal travel/communication) is that neither the signal nor the receiver is actually moving at relativistic speeds, but rather that the signal is instead taking a shorter path between two points in spacetime specifically to avoid having to move at such speeds from a local perspective.

This is abhorrently flawed logic. These mortality rates are a sum of your chances of dying from literally everything that can kill you, including cancer and heart disease. We're talking about a disease right here right now that has similar rates of mortality, that is currently active and being spread in our communities, could have even larger long term mortality rates and yet people are making excuses of why it's ok to possible expose other people so that they can avoid working out in their living room.
I think people need to dial back a bit and mention that just because you didn't die from infection - doesn't mean you are 100% the way you were pre-infection.

I rarely see mentions too that just because the mortality rate is lower for younger/healthy people - why does that exclude them potentially transmitting it to older folk?

> We really need to tell kids to get up and do jumping jacks, come back in 15 minutes with milk and cookies.

Honestly, in my opinion we need to do this at school still, especially elementary level. We're expecting too much out of these kids, even when they're in the classroom, and it's no wonder we're seeing a rise in issues. Let the kids be kids, give them longer than 30 minutes of recess (if they even get that anymore!), give them naptime still, etc.

I'm generally against charter schools (being a high school teacher myself), but man, I wish I had the funds to start a charter elementary school. There's so much I would change.
My above comment isn't even the worst thing I noticed in the last year or two before I graduated HS. (I went to a small school, with K to 12 on the same campus).

I ran tech for the big "Christmas Program", which consisted of "song and dance" (loosely speaking) from kids aged pre-K to second grade. It was fairly nice, because I got to skip class. What was less nice, was hearing a pre-K teacher yell "Why did you do that!?! Doing that is going to ruin the program for your grandparents, after they go through all the trouble to come see you.", in response to a child stumbling on a line.

Public education is necessary, but many implementations are flawed.

If you're comparing relative returns, you need an accurate benchmark. Otherwise it's comparing apples to oranges.

Would you compare returns of a cash portfolio against the S&P500? That would be ridiculous.

I don't know the weights of this portfolio, however the article states "CU’s diversified portfolio" so I'd imagine it's more than the S&P.

> abysmal investment performance, which could have been significantly improved by simply investing in broad market U.S. equity index funds and not being over weighted in actively managed investment and ‘alternative investments,’

Everything's easier in hindsight.

This is not a question of the investment managers, but of the board of trustees of the fund. The investment managers simply execute the board's wishes, hopefully with some useful back-and-forth on how best set and do this. How the investment managers can be assessed against the goal set to them by the board. How wise the board's strategy is, is a separate question.

This seems more a request of the board to only invest in the S&P500, and to do so passively. For a large fund, in my opinion, this is folly - and this is without going into an active/passive discussion: Over the long term larger companies simply don't survive all that well. Growth and change comes from newer or reborn companies, see: FAANG, and this is equally true outside of internet companies. To stay passive in the S&P ignoring smaller companies seems short-sighted, and a university endowment should look longer, decades out.

Looking longer comes to investment strategy, which is essentially at a minimum matching future liabilities against assets. For this I'd suggest a composite of Russell 3000 instead of S&P500, an MSCI Global Index (this is complex - Anglo markets have a high level of market capitalisation vs. GDP, but in non-Anglo markets, take Germany, China) funds are mainly not raised via equity, and listed companies have a huge skew not representing the economy... or even something radically different. Something including forests at least.

I could go on but feel this could turn into a ramble. The above should be enough.
I was a special education teacher for a decade in both private and public settings. I worked with children of all school ages who had difficulties keeping up. I'm also a parent.

A thought: students are expected to learn to function together in classroom settings over the course of their first few years in school. It's a gradual and often tedious process for everyone involved. How many children say they like sitting in class? It's a heavily researched subject. Some students never really get the hang of it. Other students learn to keep their place, but have trouble following the pace, and compensate otherwise. Or don't. Suddenly requiring teachers and children to respectively teach and learn under vastly different circumstances, EG teleconferencing from home with family around, appears a bit unrealistic. Glhf
