if I'm a priori suggesting that we surely need some restrictions although I can't commit now to exactly what we'll need for the course of the pandemic -- then you are a priori suggesting that we don't, right?

But we're not going to resolve this here.

I am curious about one thing specifically though, my one question you didn't respond to. The person you were responding to said we didn't need lockdown, but we did need some restrictions to nonsesential businesses.

But you replied that closing down nonsessential businesses was in fact "lockdown".

If that's lockdown, do you think Sweden's restrictions of gatherings over 50 people (with criminal penalties for violating) is also "lockdown"? If so, contrary to popular conception, it would turn out that Sweden actually engaged in "lockdown" all along after all, I guess? And do you think even Sweden basically over-reacted?
Excellent nitpick; history is full of fun surprises if you only look at the names folks use.

Hey, this checks out with the very thing that the younger generation complains about, correlates with social injustice in the grandest scale (homelessness), that is one influencing factor in major social unrest in the country (racial disparity in access to real estate). But let's ignore that.

Have you considered that the deflection in the economy caused by the inflation happened to manifest itself unevenly across various market segments, and the primary direction that the deflection moved into is the very one you're ignoring?
That's what they told me about my Apple Watch, and it is super scratched after only 6 months.

PetitFatFS was handy in a recent build. I was creating a box that could be placed on marine equipment to collect vibrations data, but to capture the modes of interest it had to read accelerometer data and write it to a microSD card at >=660[Hz]. I don't have a programming background and thus had trouble creating code which fit onto the tiny memory of the microcontroller being used. PetitFatFS worked beautifully, and saved a ton of headache on my end. It added the step of creating the storage files on the microSD card prior to inserting it, but that was acceptable for this project.
The big issue with data migration are inconsistent data in source, general news in structure and incompatibile approaches in original and destination db structure.

The last one may mean you are solving np-complete problems to satisfy new bd.

Even if done asynchronously, if the link is not present the moment you send the WebMention, it can still happen between sending it and deploying it. But you're right, if the two are close together and a receiver is actually processing them asynchronously, it'll likely go well.

Can't figure out whether you are a sadist or a masochist but I love how you ran with _that_ particular ball. Kudos to you.
Probably because I think the science on avoiding too many antibiotics in a population is pretty well settled. Too many antibiotics will lead to more antibiotic resistant bacterial outbreaks.
The frequency has much less to do with it than the absolute amount, at least for fat soluble vitamins like vitamin D. Taking 2000IU on 3 separate days isn't much different from taking 6000IU at 1 day.
We have a first-gen iPhone SE that runs iOS 14 fine but probably wouldn't fetch more than $99+tax, especially when the hassle factor is accounted for. Also, it's nice to have a backup phone around the house, in case something happens to one of our primary phones.
From the article: "Undeniably, further studies are needed to clarify the optimal supplementation of vitamin D, although it is uncertain whether a universal recommended dietary allowance is feasible."

So perhaps they've established the RDA is too low, but the article itself says they haven't nailed down what the new recommendation should be. That's probably more than a 3 year process (now massively disrupted) assuming that consensus is building in the direction.
I don't know if I would say massively abused.

Some people abused it for sure.

But how many people put more data onto it than you could fit into a relatively normal NAS? I would think one off-the-shelf NAS is firmly within the scope of an unlimited data storage plan.

Edit: Did I say something dumb? I don't think putting movie rips on this service is inherently an abuse, regardless of whether you ripped it yourself or pirated it. It's the amount that matters.

That turns out to be the answer I've been trying to figure out for years: regardless of the technicalities of "printing money", all this quantitative easing should have been causing inflation. And it is... in the stock market, which doesn't figure into the consumer price index.

The CPI, meanwhile, has been stable, or even under the Fed's target. Presumably because those are basics, and you don't really need to buy much more of the basics just because you have more money. (The people with newfound stock wealth, that is; the people without it don't have any more money to spend in the first place.)

It's still a little unclear to me why the S&P 500 has remained in the "inflated but not insane" through most of the past decade -- though for the past week or so it's trending back to "insane" (a P/E ratio well above 20). That means that earnings were coming from somewhere, and if not from core consumer products, then presumably from other things that the stock-market-wealthy were buying from each other, at presumably inflating prices, or at least quantities.
I encourage you to google “biological sex isn’t real” and acquaint yourself with this line of thinking.

Radical gender theory does in fact make the bold claim that biological sex isn’t real. That’s right, sex, not gender. The postmodernist underpinnings used to support these types of ideas are rooted in concepts like “objective truth does not exist” and “everything is a social construct”.
I did that, too, until I realized I tap the back of my phone when I'm thinking.
We knew this was coming we just didn’t know when.

If you have unlimited storage, the data hoarders will find out about it and abuse it. Maybe three years ago, there was a post by someone using Amazon’s unlimited free storage to store camgirl streams and had amassed a petabyte or so. Cloud storage companies all eventually learn this lesson, but depending on the size of the company they can prop up the free storage options for a while.

This is wrong thinking. Nobody can really control when someone takes a nefarious interest in them. Public identity is only fine if there's nobody out there who wants to harm you. But since you can't control who wants to harm you, you can't really decide in advance if having a public identity is OK or not. The answer isn't "stay off the Internet" which is tantamount to "don't leave your house." This is why Facebook tries to put controls in the hands of the tagged; they only did that after a string of teenage suicides related to cyber bullying. Surely these kids thought they had no reason to be so concerned. But it turned out they did, they couldn't control the damage done to their reputation, and killed themselves.

It's like if Jeff Bezos dumped a big chunk of his Amazon stock on the market. The price would collapse.
It smacks a little of "Well, we don't know how vaginas work, the only thing we know is they're powerful and mysterious and a little bit scary." That kind of superstitious ignorance is surprisingly big, but then I got to "he learned that several of the things she reported were outright premeditated fraud, but he wouldn't dismiss the other parts of her claim." Clearly not a guy used to meticulous reasoning.
Did both, can confirm.
Interesting factoid from the footnote:

iPhone 12 mini has not been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. iPhone 12 mini is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.
That's basically the only problem. The marketing pushed it way too early, as they tend to do, but just way too cheery for what the reality is going to be.

But otherwise it is a serious and legitimate leap forward.

Of course it's nearly impossible to tell the sales people to keep the expectations in line with reality. Which I'm sure Verizon/ATT/etc all had engineers who knew the reality.

It's just business from hyper competitive companies where most customers won't see much of anything for years.

Customers will figure it out down the line, the companies are just kicking the can to try to exploit it for now before the other guy.

It's cynical but predictable.
I'd love to see them put AirPort tech inside their smart speakers. That's one great way to differentiate from Alexa devices. We're still running AirPorts at my house, though I know eventually they'll die and we'll have to find something else.

In the meantime, they're super convenient for having my Time Capsule back up my Mac, and for piping audio via an Airport Express to the speakers I use with my projector setup.
It's not just Windows 10.

Remember that the average medical doctor does not take even ONE human nutrition course as part of their undergraduate or med school studies.

They clearly have enough background to understand the complexities of human nutrition, but most haven't studied it at all or kept up with the research. It's like asking an ophthalmologist about bladder cancer -- they just don't know.

Consider speaking to a registered dietitian, who actually are trained in this area.
Lightning cables break if the phone falls at a weird angle or if you pull while twisting on the weakest side.

Not really. It's the same question as the measurement problem: Schrodinger's equation predicts that a particle can exist in many places at the same time, with different amplitudes, and interact with particles in all those places. However, if we want to predict the particle's movement after it encounters a detector, we need to update the wave function to set its probability to 1 at the position of the detector and 0 everywhere else - otherwise, our predictions are measurably wrong.

Now, the question is: what causes this discontinuity in the equations of motion? Why is interaction with a detector different than interaction with another particle? Many Worlds simply reframes this problem, but doesn't get rid of it. In MWI, you would say 'the particle moves in all universes according to the wave function, until it interacts with a detector, possibly interfering with versions of itself in other universes. Then, when it encounters the detector, the world line of the detector splits - in some universes it passes the detector, in others it doesn't. However, it no longer interacts with other versions of itself,so we must update the wave function inside the universe where it passed the detector'.
Doesn't seem slow to me. Mine responds quite quickly.
I know custom allocators are important for tiny platforms and so on, but what's a reason C/C++ can't allocate memory in a satisfactory way by default on those platforms? And how do other languages get away with it?
It happens in minor monopolies, which are exploitable best at small scale, like location or temporality. I can flip the latest Nintendo mini on eBay pretty easily.

However, I can’t imagine the trouble that Nintendo would get into if they sold the same device at different prices based on zip code.

Not to say that doesn’t happen, because that’s half the point behind custom phone contracts, where the price you pay for the device over time varies widely from person to person. Though, because it’s individualized, it’s very hard for consumers to compare one another’s prices and identify minor monopolies or price discrimination when it does occur.
Norway does not need the region. Norway is part of the NATO pact. Russia knows it. Sticks and stones will eventually come into play, aka realpolitik. The US will intervene as long as that dipshit president does not manage to stumble into the way.

No, in fact it doesn't matter who opened the box first.

Imagine we both open our boxes at around the same time, and communicate each other results at the speed of light.

- From my point of view, I opened the box first, got red and caused you to get blue. Your message confirms my hypothesis.

- From your point of view, you opened the box first, got blue and caused me to get red. My message confirms your hypothesis.

We can repeat this experiment thousands of times, every time, we both get a 50/50 chance of red vs blue, and every time, the hypothesis is confirmed.

In order to know who really was first, the only way is to wait for the other person result. For example: when you open the box, start a timer, stop it when you receive my message. It the time is less than the times it takes for light to travel between us, I was first. But in order to have this information, you have to wait, so it is not faster-than-light anymore.

One of the strengths of capitalism is that it solves the "local knowledge problem" (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_knowledge_problem) by distributing the decision making to the consumers.

Cybersyn also attempted to solve this not by distributing decision making but by distributing information capture, in the form of the 500 telex machines at various factories.

Logistics networks show how this model can outperform the free market model, and anyone familiar with genetic algorithms should be able to recognize the local maxima problem. Each consumer might take the most rational action locally and result in a poor result overall.

Think about how at the start of the pandemic it made sense for each consumer to attempt to secure food, medicine, toiletries, etc. Toilet paper became a punch line for a while, but the logic was simple. Toilet paper is shelf stable, it's low cost for a large amount, it has guaranteed demand as long as you are alive, and the cost of needing toilet paper and not having any is high (for a nation like the US where alternatives like bidets are less common). Each consumer runs the numbers, if they have sufficient storage, the cost of buying and storing additional toilet paper up front is low compared to the potential cost of needing but not having it later. This resulted in a run on toilet paper and widespread stock outs.
Japan is the perfect example that a country with a sovereign currency doesn't need that nobody buy their bonds. They have been doing this for years and they don't have hyperinflation but the opposite.

But logic alone should tell us that already. When foreign countries buy US bonds can only buy them with dollars. You can't buy US bonds with another currency. Where are those dollars coming from?

Clouds are translucent to the UV light needed for vitamin D synthesis. Even so the days get pretty short up north.

Also you haven’t mentioned your skin tone. Persons with darker skin will obviously have a harder time synthesizing vitamin D from sunlight. Fortunately the PNW is rich in salmon, one of the few good natural dietary sources of vitamin D, which certainly helped earlier peoples to maintain their health.

I'm afraid I don't understand. In what way does contextualizing and centering human agency and humanity change how these questions are asked and considered in ways unavailable to us today?

Wouldn't we also need to weight the human work and labor that went into all that scraping, organizing, and making Google possible? Wouldn't we need to consider the humanity of the person making the query, who may not want what the human who controls a given website that was scraped by the humans at Google wants?
How is it different though? Doesn't Siri on your phone send your recording to its backend to figure out what you need anyways? So it's just an extra step?

I have hypothyroidism as well.

If you take 7000 IU it might take years for you to slowly develop vitaminosis. Get your blood checked regularly to keep track.

Vitamin D is fat-soluable and not flushed out by the kidneys. It sticks in the body fat and therefore accumulates.

Bodily regulation typically happens before synthesis after sunlight exposure but if you take already-complete vitamin D, a hormone, then no regulation can keep a check anymore as you have effectivly bypassed it.

7000 IU might be fine for a while but I'd definitely keep track of the values and if there is medical evidence that higher is necessary for hypothyroidism, keep kidneys and other values in check.

this doesnt solve the OPs problems though, if Vagrant is complex, so would be a docker image. the problem is the user doesn't know how to manage/configure the underlying complexity of the OS and needed services, which would still be a problem if using docker. unless you find that perfect docker image with every dep you need... but that would also be true with vagrant.

Yes, the police showed up at his door a couple times saying somebody called 911. He disconnected everything from his network, no more visits from the police. He plugged devices back in one at a time, leaving a day or so between devices. Within an hour of plugging in the Echo devices, the police were back. He unplugged the Echo devices, no issues since.

It's zero sum. The people who desperately needed hand sanitizer or toilet paper today had less money left to spend elsewhere, but overall averaged demand wasn't all that different. Traditional suppliers probably know that jacking the price of one item can lead to losses elsewhere.

Hoarders/scalpers are not aiding price discovery, they are manipulating the price by artificially changing supply or demand. They don't have to do so sustainably either.

And all of that is leaving aside that the goal of a society is to maintain the society over time and in aggregate, not to maximize value extracted from every individual transaction.
Maybe they added another $5 worth of hardware or cool features?
.. in addition to that, it's not like Norway is without controversy, when it comes to accusing Russia. I'm not making any claims here. Not about Russia being behind it, nor the opposite.

If Norway publicly accuses Russia, then it better have some very credible (and independently verifiable) evidence for it (just an IP address from within Russia certainly won't do).

After having seen a long chain of blatantly flawed and clearly political attribution to alleged Russian wrongdoings (in all kind of matters), I'd say not a single EU country (let alone the USA) still has even remotely enough credibility left for granting them any benefit of a doubt, whenever they come with yet another finger pointing exercise towards Russia. I'm not saying Russia isn't doing anything bad, they may very well be, but that's no excuse for making accusations without credible evidence.

It should pretty clear by now that both the EU and USA aren't much interested in ever providing actual proof. That alone should worry anyone, considering their own shoddy track records. When will people finally demand to either put up (the evidence) or shut up (with what mostly likely is rather dirty politics). Or maybe Russia should just start with somehow reciprocally deal with countries that make such accusations without a willingness to provide their proof. Maybe this game would stop, once it actually starts to hurt.

Sure, their email system was very likely hacked .. but what better way than to blame it on Russia, instead of the many other possibilities (probably including the possibility of embarrassing personal incompetence or a royal screw-up in their security setup). "I'm not to blame, it was Russia that ate my homework!"
