My experience - primarily in healthcare data as a vendor... Employers & Insurance.

Client security teams have been very reasonable on deviations to their massive spreadsheet checklists.

On one hand, I think that if you, as a vendor, reply back with a few "well, we do X instead of Y in the same spirit" they will probably believe & trust your answers more than a spreadsheet returned in 2 hours with "yes/in compliance" for each question.
>Body shaming is not a valid method of making people get in shape

There's a lot of middle ground between body shaming and telling people with a BMI of 40+ that they are "fine the way they are", I think.
>portion sizes are gigantic

Statements in this vein get made quite a bit. But, as someone who lives in the US and (normally) travels around Europe quite a bit, I'm at least a little bit skeptical. Certainly when I'm eating out in Europe I don't think to myself "My, what small portions." (Admittedly, in the US some meals come with a lot of cheap carbs like potatoes but that's hardly unknown in Europe in my experience as well.)

>Even the strawberries seem to be bigger.

That's mostly industrialized farming for you. If you buy locally grown strawberries in, say, New England in season, they're both much tastier and smaller.
Perhaps corporations are not people, however "the press" is made of corporations. If there is to be no restriction on the press then what is to stop any corporate entity from advancing the cause of their politics as a member of the so-called press?

Furthermore, this is a binary line of thinking that isn't even fit for a children's book. The world is not split between those that want change, and those that are afraid of change. It is very much possible for intelligent adults to consider the details of what is being prescribed and conclude that "that sounds at least as bad or possibly worse than the status quo."

Sweden has 5x deaths of Germany. Not quite an order of magnitude. And as someone else pointed out, the US has more deaths per capita than Sweden.
Yes, there is a ton of science supporting not eating plants.

In fact, entire human societies have survived for generations on entirely animal-based diets but a human being cannot even survive on a diet devoid of animal-based foods (vegans have to supplement or else they die).

There is a list of books here: https://meatrx.com/resources/books/

I personally find the writing and lectures of Nina Teicholz to be especially compelling.
It had the opposite impact for me, honestly - no more eating out for lunch, no commute (which I repurposed for workouts), and less social meals/drinking. (I'm also young, was already in shape, and have no kids - so that helps lmao)

> Also, the death rate in the US is higher than in Sweden

Is Sweden comparable to the US? The population is more like a US state. Let's take Oregon as an example. About half the population of Sweden, and less than 10% of the covid deaths. We're not exactly locked down, either.

I think there are no plans because the risk the backup procedures create is high enough to make it more prudent to just shut down.

Miscommunications in hospitals are a significant risk, even with EHR (thus the original requirements for EHR). If we assume a full IT outage, then EHR is effectively a non-option. That means we're probably back to using paper. Except now, no one uses paper outside of emergencies, so the original risk of miscommunication with paper is now compounded by the lack of familiarity with it. That problem is going to get worse over time as the medical personnel who used to work entirely on paper retire and are replaced with younger people who have never worked on paper outside of emergencies.

Redundant systems are also harder to create for IT outages vs generators. Generators are simply providing an alternate source of a basic substance. In IT outages you have to consider supplying alternate sources of substances (Kubernetes is an example, as it manages many sources of CPU and network) as well as circumstances where the well of your substance is poisoned (i.e. someone put an infected file in an S3 bucket, or someone is running SQL injection attacks). Solving the first problem is easy, with things like high availability, Kubernetes, etc. The second problem still seems to be an open question; I've never seen a solution that really addressed it other than to backup frequently and try to make sure that your time to recovery is low.

I think the more sensible solution is to pursue what we're doing currently, and change your SLA from "hospital is available to patients" to "medical service is available to citizens within X minutes". We have redundancy in the form of multiple hospitals. Each hospital should be as reliable as possible, but a hospital failing is inevitable under some circumstances. Then we just need to focus on maximizing the efficiency with which we route patients to hospitals. The article says it took an hour to make a 20 mile drive. There has to be a way to improve that
Thank you, great tip.
Codecs and compression are another biggie. Much code gets rewritten to work around scorched earth.
COVID tests/PCR tests only test whether a person is actively infected. They look for viral RNA present in your system. Therefor, if you recover (10-14 days after infection, ~7 days after symptoms) then you will not test positive for COVID.

I don't think this is a nitpick, this is a valid point that actually plays even more into the concept of Rust's fearless concurrency.

You're not avoiding the runtime overhead of a second loop but being able to operate on both streams in parallel would be a far more complicated concept in C/C++. This actually reminds me of that influential Rob Pike talk about writing a concurrent parser in Go.
Society pays for it too. Less so than some countries given America's private healthcare system, but as an extreme example... what happens if America needs more soldiers? Overeating means more agriculture means more land used/more inputs required/more carbon burned. Illness and early deaths has an impact on productivity. No man is an island, everything you do has an impact on society.

There's a lot of good info free at https://www.greenbuildingadvisor.com/ . It's a Taunton site (Fine Woodworking, etc.) and they'd like you to buy a Prime subscription but there's many knowledgeable builders and building science people who really know their stuff. There's much good advice in the Q&A.
Not necessarily. I used to think that, but it's rather common for the person with the idea to just go and buy the domain on GoDaddy.

Then they'll search for technical people to implement their idea. So being hosted there is not necessarily connected with the people actually doing the work.

I think you may be used to cases where the startup idea generator and implementer is the same person. But it's not always that way.
I'm not saying that no human being has ever derived value from a SOC2. I'm saying that the process around SOC2 is a grift.

The fact that it also causes harm to small companies, and detracts from resources for companies that actually care about security, just makes it a particularly harmful grift.
Except financial capital isn’t getting a greater share of GDP than it used to: http://blogs.wsj.com/economics/2015/03/26/thomas-piketty-say.... The decline in labor share of income has come entirely from increased income from land and rents.

> Rognlie finds that when you account for depreciation properly, the capital share's increase has been entirely about housing.

The part that you’re forgetting is that capital accumulates, returns to capital go down. There is a ton of capital sloshing around the economy right now looking for marginal returns.
Yup. so is facebook (at least for me)
> Rust doesn't appear to have a way to say "give me the location of this &str in that &str" (even though it seems like it would be safe).

That's a fantastic idea. It seems like it would be not just safe, but quite efficient, too.

fn offset_of(parent: &str, child: &str) -> Option<usize> {
let cp = child.as_ptr();
let pp = parent.as_ptr();
if pp <= cp && cp <= pp + parent.len() {
Some(cp as usize - pp as usize)
} else {
None
}
}

(Edit: as can be expected, my hastily-thrown-together example code has several bugs in it. I think there's an off-by-one error in the ending condition, and I'm really not sure if it handles multi-byte characters properly.)

>governments grant rights

Perhaps a subtle point, but I think it has consequences... there is a difference between a government granting rights and securing them. The [US Declaration of Independence](https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/declaration-transcrip...) puts forth the opinion that governments are instituted "to secure these rights." I think the regulation of speech is an example where it makes a difference what you believe - if the government grants you rights, it can take them away. If our rights pre-exist the government, then the government can only succeed or fail at accomplishing what it was instituted to do.

You shouldn't be downvoted. Immunity is a spectrum, not a binary condition. If the pre-existing immunity hypothesis is correct then it probably doesn't provide complete protection in all cases. It might cause some patient to experience asymptomatic or paucisymptomatic infections instead of full blown clinical COVID-19. Those patients can still test positive.

The CDC estimates that 40% of infections are asymptomatic.

An underground earth bermed home built in California: The Steps
Wow this is amazing, I just checked right now and this same just happened to me. I searched a week ago on NameCheap for a name it was available, and now it is registered to GoDaddy.. Is there any way that GoDaddy would be able to see searches from NameCheap or is that just a really big coincidence?
There are definitely cases where speech can be harmful. It can affect people's livelihoods, personal lives... Rumours can (and have, many times) lead to actual dangerous events, from the blood libel pogroms to pizzagate. Bad information about covid can (and are) leading to deaths. etc. In wartime, there is a reason belligerents use propaganda. If effective, it can literally weaken a nation.

Freedom of speech is important, despite the dangers. In terms of political freedoms, danger & importance often go together. I don't think we should diminish the power of speech, and therefore its danger.

As to abstract justice... This has been a major societal and political concern since the literal beginning of history. That is, for as long as there has been writing (that survives), there have been such issues. Ancient law codes, religious texts and such are full of it. It's part of who we are.

Bike + trainer indoors, bike outdoors. Preferably away from busy roads. Make sure you have hills, otherwise 15 mi is a minimum.

I think the point is to have a free method of doing so. Since a &str is a pointer and length, it contains all the information already of where it is inside the parent &str. This also covers the case of when the same token is repeated in the text.

src = `let abc = "abc"`
token = src[4..7]
The 4 and 7 right there are the values we want. And if a str is a pointer and length, then those values should be retrievable with simple arithmetic, rather than a string search

The only issue is if the str isn't a substring. The signature would need to be either

`fn location(&self, &child) -> Option<(usize, usize)>` or
`unsafe fn location_unchecked(&self, &child) -> (usize, usize) `
My point to jaywalk was that combined COVID-19 + severe flu w/o mitigations like a lockdown, could be catastrophic. Their post was anti-lockdown comparing COVID-19 to flu.

I am not surprised that measures to avoid COVID-19 also reduces the spread of flu.
I believe the pc revolution was created two ways:

Microsoft became a software giant, and to sell more copies of its software, it had to drive the price of hardware to zero.

This is "complements" joel talks about here [1]

By the commoditization hardware, people bought more copies of windows, and we all benefitted by the relentless march of faster, better, cheaper that resulted.

(The thing is they caused linux to flourish as software got more expensive)

Then apple did the opposite.

Apple is actually commoditizing software to sell hardware. Before the app store, software - very good apps actually - were frequently $39.95 or more.

Apple drove software to zero. It gives away the OS with it's hardware, and apps on the app store started at a few dollars, then 99 cents, then all the top apps were free.

and now data has become the way these free apps can survive and compete. advertisers and data brokers are the ones who fund things, by monetizing our data.

The thing is - I think hardware vendors can be aligned with free software. it sells hardware.

My parents ran a restaurant, and my extended family run restaurants in different countries.

In most places I'd say you can get a doggy-bag, but unless it's because your kids won't eat, you won't. Unless you're going to take-away most of the meal, you probably won't need a box. People do sometimes not eat everything, but there's not a lot of point in saving two or three bites.

My sense is that most restaurants in the US could just charge more for the same, and people would just pay it. Perhaps the doggy-bag thing has changed expectations so that won't work, who knows.

I'm not sure cycling is going to fix obesity. If you're getting a meal that's 2x what it's supposed to be, which seems to be what happens in the US, and a normal meal at a restaurant is maybe 1000-1500 calories, cycling isn't gonna be enough to help you. For reference I can do maybe 10 calories a minute on my elliptical, and I can hold that pace for maybe an hour. And that's some workout, quite a lot harder than a bike ride.

I'm not sure what setting that is. I've tried hitting the "tap to edit" thingy to edit the command it head from "open Offie" to "open Authy" several times, and it doesn't seem to really help much.

It's not that much of a problem on my phone or iPad, because I can just ask it to open Authenticator (Microsoft's authentication app). When I set up TOTP for a site, I scan the QR code in both.

It's on my Apple Watch that it is annoying. Microsoft Authenticator on the watch doesn't do TOTP. It's just for authenticating with Microsoft sites. So on the watch I need to use Authy if I need a TOTP code for a site.

On the watch, I don't see any option to edit a command that Siri gets wrong.

Creator here. Bibcitation is a free online tool to help students easily create citations and generate bibliographies.

Last year, I came to realize that most of the citation tools that existed were outdated and had interfaces optimized for ad views, not for usability. They went so far into this that they became almost impossible to use.

I set out to develop my own citation tool that would be reliable and optimized for usability, both by not being designed around ads and by taking advantage of the latest advances in web app technology.

I'm still looking for more features to implement so if you have any comments or questions, I’d be happy to discuss them with you.
Hubble's New Rainbow View of Jupiter
I disagree entirely. 200 years ago we had herds of Bison roaming the great American plains that were so large it would take the herd five days to pass a camp site. We can go back to that kind of herding if we want to. It is agriculture that is destroying our environment with pesticides and destroying human health with carbohydrates. Meat is also not as big an impact of global warming as people think it is -- the health care industry has a far greater carbon emission problem and the health care industry would be decimated if our society turned to eating red meat in massive quantities and avoided sugar and grains entirely.

I had some domains registered through Gandi in the past, but they're prices are kinda high, and their web interface isn't that great.
