A very strange comment, which is far from the experience of anyone I’ve ever heard of.

I have an iPhone, but I communicate with my friends using WhatsApp,
Facebook Messenger, Signal, and Skype as well as iMessage.

Some of them have android phones, and some of them have iPhones. And some of the iPhone users use Facebook messenger,
Signal, and WhatsApp, to communicate with me

I only use FaceTime to communicate with certain in-laws, and the some of my extended family and some local friends use Amazon Echos for video.
Norway is not famous for it's innovation or industry - much less than equally-populated Denmark and twice-as-populated Sweden with which it shares most culture, weather, genetics (and essentially also language). Neither are Belgium or Spain, and Switzerland, though more established, is no industrial powerhouse.

I do not claim that this is a result of the wealth tax, but it definitely doesn't attract innovators and industrialists.
Furthermore, over the long term it can change the texture of the Reddit community.
What sort of person quits using Reddit after becoming frustrated with yet another imposed hassle?
What sort of person stays, or is retained by pop-up notifications and whatever other tedious blandishments their app/redesign provides?

There are other sites with similar features and layout to Reddit (Voat, Ruqqus, Saidit, Raddle, communities.win, etc.) but none are really in competition to be "the front page of the Internet".
This is because Reddit has a huge community with varied interests which provides self-perpetuating advantages.
For example: the activity level is generally higher; if you start a subreddit for a niche topic you have a chance at finding an audience; great comments/submissions will garner thousands of upvotes rather than a few dozen (smaller sites have a proportionately tinier vote ceiling, making it hard to differentiate between "good" and "amazing").

I can see increased retention/monetization maybe leading to a larger user-base in the short term, but if it makes good content less likely to crop up, or leads to less discerning users (ingenious effortposts lose out to low-effort pandering memes), or even if it just narrows the interests/hobbies represented on there, then over time it will destroy Reddit's main source of value.
Live steam is another alternative, also used in industrial applications.
I believe the parent commenter's logic is that reducing the frequency of the presentation increases the amount of decision making the viewer goes through when it is presented. The commenter's belief is that the added decision making effort would be more annoying than the benefit from the reduction in frequency.
If we just didn't subsidize its production, that would be a start.
Did no one just notice the worst collapse in March since the great depression?

This is stupid. nothing's real anymore.
We haven't evolved to constantly evaluate our actions against things we cannot see right in front of us (in this case a virus). Nothing actually happening during this pandemic is surprising in the least.
Dato: Better menu bar clock with calendar and time zones
There are rare long-term side effects from many infectious viruses

So it's all perfectly fine then? Because there are other viruses that do harm, we should allow this virus to run rampant.

Guess how I know you're not a doctor.
IEEE 754 handles all the cases you mentioned - it doesn't always prescribe Inf.
This is absurd. Humanity isn't going to go extinct from climate change, and the causes of climate change are fossil fuels and how they allow us to support a large population. If everyone stopped eating meat you'd still have tons of unhealthy people and you'd still have climate change.
This was my reaction as well. It seems to be a fundamental shift from showing human boundaries (parks, etc.) to natural clime changes. Forget "more colorful"—that's a massive change in the intent of the data that seems to be glossed over.

Personally, I care much more about knowing where parks and public spaces are vs. whether the surrounding land is "arid, icy, forested, [or] mountainous".
I think it's pretty misleading to characterize "no going to the gym, ever, until further notice" as a simple action.
The gulf kingdoms have a tiny fraction of the wealth in silicon valley alone.
Yes, emphatically. The statistics clearly show that deaths from flu and other infectious diseases and lung conditions have dropped to nearly zero over the past several months. This doesn't pass the most basic smell test: People didn't stop dying from those things simply because of a new virus. The only reasonable conclusion is that those deaths were misattributed to the Wuhan virus because of political, economic, or other pressures.
It's kind of like how you can read a post on the internet that mentions two economists and draw any kind of conclusions about the work they've done without even taking a cursory look at it.
Enter Air orders 4 new Boeing 737 Max amid cancellations
I wouldn’t worry about trying to filter the air on the way in. Your house won’t be sealed up well enough to prevent smoky air from getting in. Instead, you can set the air to recirculate and augment your home filter with an air purifier. You want one that filters a large volume of air per hour. There’s a lot of snake oil with regard to air purifiers out there; I generally try to stick to high airflow HEPA filter units to remove the smoke particulates. Some units also have an activated charcoal filter on top of the HEPA filter. These help with removing some of the VOCs that cause the smoky smell, but a lot of these filters are thin and don’t last very long. (I’m not actually sure if the smell of smoke is bad for you or just the smoke particulates, but I prefer to get rid of the smell if I can.)

There’s also some DIY solutions out there involving box fans and air filters. I don’t think most box fans are actually powerful enough to move large volumes of air when combined with an air filter, but I did see one guy on Reddit who put a high MERV filter and a squirrel cage fan inside a wooden box enclosure and that seemed to work pretty well.

Also, if you’re going to order an air purifier, do it soon. I suspect they are about to sell out very quickly.
Did you not notice the trillion or so dollars added to the money supply since March, with 2-3 trillion more expected over the next couple of months?
You’re an exception and you are more than welcome to join a secret gym. I was just pointing out to others that outdoors is a good option for exercising, at least during the summer. If you want to look like an ogre you probably don’t want to be seen outdoors anyways.
National Assessment of Adult Literacy (2003)
You're thinking about this wrong. P/E 40 is comparable to an interest rate of 2%. Would you rather take 0% from bonds?
>I also don’t want them to shut down gyms, or voting, or churches, or any other peaceful reason (dumb) people wish to assemble.

You are attempting to equate assembly for the purpose of fighting racism or exercising vitally important activities like voting, with "assembly" for the purpose of "sick gainz bruh". This is such a false equivalency that it's laughable, and honestly also a little insulting.

The difference is, now, thanks to humans, there are 1.4 billion cows. And a lot of the cows are fed things like corn, which makes them produce a lot more methane than a more natural diet would. A million years ago, you wouldn't have anywhere near this many ruminants.
I gather you mean an actual dependency graph, since that's what you said. :) Most task software with dependencies don't support graph data structures.

I regularly use Flying Logic for this sort of thing - I make a huge dependency graph, and then I create a collapsible group that encompasses the stuff that is active. The part of the graph that is "below" that window is stuff that is already done, and the stuff that is "above" that window is stuff that can't be started until I do stuff in the active window.

("below" and "above" can be reoriented to "left" and "right" if you prefer)

They are completely dependent on ads. 95% of their profit comes from ads. Compare that to Apple’s revenue mix. I know it’s not exactly comparable (revenue vs profit), but no one can argue that Apple doesn’t have margins on all of its products.

Toronto police pay $16.5m to protesters wrongfully held at 2010 G20 summit
Yes, that is correct. Learning to draw things realistically is done by purging your mental symbolism and trying to see the scene in two dimensions. You also need to unlearn what colours you think things are and actually look.
I’m not sure the tech literate professional is the right group there. Plenty of us pick Apple products because we’d rather use our time and skills to make money instead of tinkering with gadgets.
Sorry but this is not the state of things if you are under 50 years old. If you are under 50, you are probably better educated but have much less wealth than your parents did at the same age. Your health suffers from years of having no health care. Your teeth are bad. Climate change is going to change your life imminently, and nobody in a position to do something about it cares. You are putting off having kids, or choosing not to. You’ve seen three economic crises in your lifetime and expect more. You’re not so much hoping for things to get better as much as you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop. There is just little reason to be optimistic right now.
It's not, though. A savings account that might temporarily lose half of its value in a recession isn't a great option for lower income folks.
There is a crossfit gym that I pass by every morning on the way to work. It is full, and never stopped during this pandemic. Even at 7AM, it is full of patrons.

I would call the "proper authorities", but since there is a State Police car parked outside every morning, and he is in there working out, just like before the pandemic, I doubt calling anyone would do anything.

Adding to the post, I read it earlier... it is really strange that people feel they have to go work out in groups. Or get together, or go to bars. I find it amazing we can not see short term sacrifice for long term gain.
Spreading virus is an act of violence. Intentionally spreading disease is in the law books as a violent crime. Is the casualty rate of police encounters higer than the casualty rate of COVID-19 encounters?
Yes, but to put it in context, heart disease and diabetes cause a lot more deaths [1] and obesity has been shown to increase the risk of those conditions.

Companies that are more profitable have higher value stock - increasing the demand for it, no?

>I think quarantine should be down to the individual and the rules they'd like to implement on their private property

Too bad most people leave their private property and interact with people in public spaces where their personal rules are moot.
yep, i've been going to a gym + sauna of a friend of mine the whole lockdown. this is a thing :)
in the US the term isn't used this way. Takeout restaurants, Starbucks, etc. have always remained open as "essential businesses".

Not where I live. All restaurants were shut down, even for take-out. They were only allowed to offer take-out food when restrictions started being lifted.
These studies don't really prove anything.

Common arguments in favor of these studies -

"They prove people don't quit work on UBI!"

- No, they prove that people who are in a program that is very clearly temporary will not end their careers for a short pilot program. This means nothing.

"They prove people won't spend it on drugs, booze, and lotto tickets!"

- No. If you make $1k from a job and $1k from a pilot program each month, you spend the $1k from the pilot on legitimate bills and now you have $1k to spend however you like. The study can't trace that money. (This isn't to say everyone on UBI uses it for drugs, rather, it's to point out that you cannot deduce they don't just by tracing the way the transfer payments are spent)

"The studies prove people's life and happiness improved because of UBI!"

- No kidding. You gave someone several thousand dollars no strings attached in a situation where neither taxes nor inflation would rise as a result.

What UBI skeptical people want to know is where is the proof that we can afford to tax ourselves to pay ourselves, where is the proof that it won't hurt long term productivity, and where is the proof that it doesn't cause inflation. A 120 person 36 month trial program cannot answer any of these questions.

I was primarily responding to "what's the harm in selling data?" generally. I don't know about DPPA specifically but it's hard for me to imagine the DMV selling data to a broad subset of private companies in a way that is notably different than just making it public (eg, I know that companies have done soft pulls of my credit report even while I had a freeze, so it actually seems like the info in my credit report is nearly-public despite protections similar to DPPA).
“In a pile of crap, even copper shines like gold.”
Thanks for the meaty comment! I was expecting a bunch of stuff in the "fancier type system" category and was pleasantly surprised.

Do you have any references to share to learn more about potential practical uses of categories? Assume the knowledge of someone who isn't intimidated by the wiki page on categories but who learns by reading it.
I look forward to the day when one of these makes an appearance on one of those prototype/collector forums.

"So my friend who used to work at the DOE was getting rid of some stuff and he had this iPod, and it looks like a regular iPod but I took a look inside and does anybody know what the hell this is...?"
My point was that if you're buying a box to work around the problem of having a TV with ads, but now the box has ads too, things have gotten pretty bad.

The problem with RPi solutions as far as I'm aware, is that the content services now have DRM that prevent content from running on RPi. Is that no longer the case? Can I use RPi to watch Netflix and YoutubeTV for instance?
I don't even see anything on the page. I'm guessing this is their anti-adblock tactic? If so I'm fine not viewing their content.

Absolutely! We're planning to implement movements like burpees to give users the possibility for High Intensity full body workouts!
We've chosen not to do Vr based on user feedback: people seem to not like it. They find it cumbersome, heavy, sweaty and annoying, and we want to provide a seamless fitness gaming experience! We will still explore porting to VR in the future, of course! :)

Regarding lower body workouts, we'll start by adding sensors to the legs if we reach that specific stretch goal. We'd love to add resistance too, if it's feasible! :)

Thank you for your input!
That's because the landlord still expects rent to be due.
Unless Germany has a secret fleet of human-level AIs that can do anything a regular German worker can for free, this will fail. Even worse is that this failure will make them think UBIs will never work.

Corporate America seems to run on Diet Coke.
Wrong. Apple succeeded because they managed to tap directly into the newly printed fiat money by borrowing vast amounts of money to avoid tax all over the world and benefiting directly from international currency inflation and doing stock buybacks.
If you are in Chicago, think 6k rings, 60k cars and 600k houses.
Indeed. This seems to be a natural progression of yin-yang where these processes will unfold as part of an education process, and then once policy is implemented to counter the two party system then I can only imagine society beginning to thrive immensely relative to before; ranked choice voting, $100/year budgeted for each eligible voter to contribute to politician of their choice, etc - a few ideas Andrew Yang was running on.
It's exclusive, with a gatekeeper, and no workaround. It just works. It has payment processing built in.

Like most Apple things, they weren't the first. Their genius isnt being first, it was spit polishing things to be simple for the masses. Over the years, they have lost a bit of that vision and turned googly with new products not quite replacing old products (how many times has photo sharing and backup been redesigned) but comparing the whole suite to components is a bit unfair.
So I went back and thought about whether you could extend the X approach to streaming of 3D games. I came up with the following walls:

* Licensing issues
* 3D games can max out the PCI bus, network traffic wouldn't stand a chance
* How the heck do you keep up with the frames on less powerful hardware?
* You'd need a properly portable 3D graphics API

So the White Queen would probably think it's fairly doable before breakfast.
I'm not ignoring it, everyone else has commented about that so I have no need to repeat it here.
It's called "rugged invidualism" here, not narcissism, thank you very much. And the answer is yes.
In the US, there's been 172k death in half a year for Covid. And if using the worst case data for flu season, it's 61k per year. So it's looking like for a full year, it'll be 344k death for Covid versus 61k death for the flu.

That makes Covid 5.6 times more deadly than the flu.

But, the Covid numbers here are from a complete lockdown, where people are social distancing, wearing masks, schools are closed, everyone is working from home if possible, etc. And even with those level of precautions, it is at best 5.6 times deadlier.

That's why the estimate from the CDC is that Covid is 10 times deadlier than the flu.

The other thing is, this only measures immediate death. But there are unknown long term risk. Other type of SARS virus are known to cause long term issues to people that recovered from it. Hopefully this doesn't turn out to be the case for Covid but it could, and we don't know yet.

The last problem is mutations are possible. There's already one known mutation that makes it even more contagious. And the more the virus spreads, the more likely it mutates as well. So containment is important for that as well.

Now, that's the risk of it from the data today. You can decide that it is a risk worth taking or not. That's kind of a personal thing. But it is absolutely much higher than the flu.
Happy to hear this might help you out! :)
You think a disease with a case fatality rate of like 0.05 (probably like 0.01 for 20-30 somethings) would actually going put evolutionary pressure on anything? These people are looking at the risks and making rational decisions that its not worth shutting down your life.
People get so upset when the monetary expansion is pointed out. S&P is headed to 4k within the next couple of years as the monetary expansion shows no sign of changing.
So you also refuse to own a Tesla?

Other than GDP cratering in Q2 or massive unemployment, with incomes only remaining stable because we gave the vast majority of Americans $1,200 checks and $2,400 income boost if they were unemployed?

We're not even in the first inning of this crisis - We're still in batting practice. The ripples and waves of this crisis will probably (just my arm chair opinion) last for years, if not the next decade.

But, hey, who knows! Maybe it'll all be over and done with next spring post vaccine. We'll be back to 4% unemployment and it'll be like it never happened from an economic perspective. Seems unlikely to me, but I'm not an economist.
I may be wrong, but for me it looks like it was their goal to begin with. Google analotics knew they have to chance to compete with Apple in that regard so they went with other profitable options.
At least from outside it looks like a sane decision.

I know it's in vogue to blame everything on America, but Mexico has a thriving domestic junk food industry too. And frankly, many of their snacks are much better than anything America makes (Takis in particular, I think I'm addicted to them...)

Anyway I support this law. Banning junk food/drinks for kids is long overdue. It's little different from banning the sale of cigarettes to kids.
