I'm curious if this will result in any popular CDN folding. After a decent chunk of users update, they'll be hit with much more traffic than usual - and possibly more than they can afford in some cases.
Various experts are predicting that the winter will be quite bad. See for example:

https://covid19.healthdata.org/global?view=infections-testin...

https://covid19.healthdata.org/united-states-of-america?view...

But notice, in the latter chart, that in the US the number of infections is predicted to peak in January and then start going down. It seems plausible that by March, we'll achieve some level of herd immunity, relative to the precautions that are currently being taken. We might have a situation like Europe over this pas summer, with small numbers of cases until a second spike in Fall/Winter 2021. That would buy us the spring and summer to roll out a vaccine.

Of course, I'm far from sure that this is what will happen -- but it certainly seems plausible to me.
You can still see which stages are taking a long time.

What's the use-case for tensorflow on web/mobile web? I thought tensorflow was mostly for training models, and my assumption would be that this is mostly relevant for the server/workstation context, but maybe I'm missing something
>post-hoc punishment is the only reasonable punishment.

Maybe a little charitable interpretation is warranted?

I clearly meant, post hoc rationalization for the punishment. Typically you punish when AN EXISTING law is broken. In this case, OP is arguing for new punishment based on new laws that were broken in the past.

>My guess, it was already illegal to poison the environment

No. The devil is in the definition of 'poison the environment'. We have coal plants that 'poison the environment'. We have solar panels, that through manufacturing, maintenance and decommissioning, 'poison the environment'.

>Corporations are not people. You can punish a corporation without any of that considerations.

Who owns corporations? This "corporations are not people" is such a cliché. All the rights that corporations have stem from the rights of the owners. Corporations have rights, because the owners have rights.

And who says the corporations are solely responsible? An unincorporated contractor may be responsible as well.
Probably because they have 1600 employees and the 2500 branches are the active ones.

I heard this from a senior colleague of mine that he's been working through the book "How to prove it: A Structured Approach"[1] that show how to prove things in mathematics, and has quite good exercises.

Perhaps a hands-on approach such as solving the exercises while working through this book will prove beneficial and is complimentary to watching, say, KA or 3B1B.

My laptop only runs Office 365 for email, calendar, and the occasional word doc. It also runs Slack and a browser for zoom meetings as access to Jira/Bugzilla web interface.

Oh, and RDP into XFCE on Ubuntu on the desktop that runs as a server.

Plus the server is cabled up to development platforms (serial ports, remote power, GPIO, JTAG, USB). So it cannot move, and even if it were a laptop, it could not move.

I don't require the laptop to be upgradeable or powerful, it is just the UI into the rest of the system.

It currently sits here with the lid closed cabled to a 27 inch display.

politicians are usually held responsible for stuff that goes on during their term, whether or not they could have done anything about it or even if it's a consequence of something the previous administration did. these kinds of nuances don't really come across to the voters, so it's much easier to just downplay everything bad that happens on your watch.
Yeah, last time I was sick I had the flu. I had lingering effects for around 8-10 weeks after. Eventually I had to go to hospital to get checked.

I feel a lot of Covid effects are being massively overblown because people aren't aware that other more common viruses that we don't worry about can have these "long term" effects as well.
"The alternative it to punish people before they commit a crime, and that seems immoral at best."

One vaccine doesn't even trigger the same immune response in different people, so it is not entirely clear to me what you mean.

The basic principle of a vaccine is that it contains proteins that are the same as (or similar to) some of the protein building blocks of the actual virus. Your body learns an immune response to these proteins, which it can reactivate when it encounters the real thing.

Many potential vaccines target the same spike proteins on the outside of the virus. I guess you could say those produce "the same immune response" in that sense.
They could already be doing that.

That is if we assume they copy google's philosophy of a single monolith repository.

> I don't think it's even relevant that "it was not illegal at the time"

The idea that a government can make something illegal and retroactively punish previous offenders is so colossally bad that in the United States the Founding Fathers wrote a prohibition against it into the Constitution.

It's not an amendment, such as the right to free speech. They wrote it into Article 1.

Disagree. "Control flow-affecting" abstractions aren't really anything special or extra difficult. You always have to understand what the arguments of a function/macro call mean. And random macros don't just randomly leak project-wide control flow decisions.
Depression, anxiety and chronic lack of sleep are usually comorbidity with ADHD though.

So if you have any of those AND you have ADHD then treating ADHD will almost always treat those as well. Since ADHD is the cause for those symptoms.

Depression/anxiety are often used as misdiagnosis before someone is diagnosed properly for ADHD.

For me, lisp macros can be a bit vexing, I prefer to not have too many unique, one of a kind, meta-abstractions cooked up by teammates on a big project. A good, widely adopted lisp macro can be handy, for example John Wiegley‘s use-package makes my Emacs configuration much cleaner. I’m not sure where the right boundary is.

Decades ago I was quite enthusiastic about macro systems, but the experience of TeX programming made me realize that sometimes plain old functional or applicative abstractions are better than macro based ones no matter how domain specific they are.
The biography is quite a tome. If anyone wants a taste of what it's like without committing to 1000+ pages, you should read the Journey to the Western Islands of Scotland first.

Johnson and Boswell toured Scotland together and then each wrote a short book about it. Well, Johnson wrote a book about it, and Boswell wrote a book about Johnson writing his book. It's pretty much the same style as the later biography but much more compact, and you can usually find both books published in a single volume (both book on the tour of Scotland, that is. )

Or better yet: Body cams for all politicians. Or camera + audio recordings of all government rooms and corridors. All encrypted, hashed and archived with a very specific and difficult to fake process that can "unseal" them.

I don't think I'm a genius or anything, but why aren't we putting really smart people on this problem and giving them plenty of funding? I constantly think we're just a few steps away from putting in a small set of technological solutions that would over time solve all our political/criminal problems.

E.g. Just imagine a world where all politicians, CEOs, major figure-heads are safely and securely recorded constantly. Think of all the ridiculous talking points and "Scandals" that would go away, be disproven, or never occur at all.

Let's not beat around the bush. There is inherent sexism in our vocabulary. The word "man" did uniquely mean "human" in the old English (and the words wæpman and wifman meant male human and female human, respectively), but it doesn't anymore. In the same way that males aren't the defacto representatives of the species, the word man should not refer to the species and the sex at the same time.

By the way, the verb to man, as in to man the decks, comes from military and nautical contexts, which used to be male-only occupations. To continue to use the verb "man" in that context is just unnecessary baggage.

COVID is special though in that if it were only as deadly to the young as it were to everyone, I don't think we'd be referring to this as a pandemic.

Literally, right now we are seeing case rates explode, but the number of casualties is paradoxically very low because it's mostly the younger cohorts getting sick - which is probably a social function of things like 'back school' and 'risky behaviours' among younger groups.

If we could get everyone 50+ vaccinated, we may be largely safe - maybe not 'back to normal safe' - but the combination of 'partial herd immunity', 'much lower rates of hospitalization' etc. may mean we can 'kind of get back to normal'.
Because by the time this passes clinical trials the Chinese vaccine will have been in mass production for months. The FDA will delay adoption of any vaccine in the US for many months in order to keep to the same standards they use when the world isn’t on fire.
Also the ESP8266 is smaller.

Practically, there's no difference for hobbyist stuff, but personally I mostly tend to use an ESP8266 just because using an ESP32 when I don't need the extra power feels like a waste, somehow.
> Most people would worry about 'long term health effects' as they'd usually assume that it's going to go on for years.

There are plenty of anecdotes to be found of people reporting debilitating long-covid symptoms for 6 months so far. That's "still sick since I had it back in March/April".

(It hasn't been around for a year so nothing can be said about that timescale yet.)

That's significant enough that public health officials are talking openly about it as a concern, so it's not just a few isolated anecdata.

There are some reports suggesting neurological impairment. Along with observed blood changes (thickening), which is concerning regarding long term damage for rational reasons. If that turns out to be true, that sort of damage tends to never completely recover. Rather you learn to adapt and live with it.
Sure, but that's not necessarily wrong. Any decision in the model will change Trump's odds in one way or another. The question is if it makes it closer to the (unknowable) real odds.

Just because intuition says it should be longer odds for Trump doesn't mean that's right.

...DKIM...

My understanding is that the purported emails were sent to Biden. He can't really do anything to control what is sent to him, so verifying that these emails were sent doesn't really prove anything. If he had forwarded the emails in a way that indicated his agreement, or if they had been sent by someone else connected to the candidate, that would be a situation in which DKIM would be relevant.

Not to mention you have to make enough money to qualify for unemployment. My wife was once denied because in the window of time they use to calculate unemployment her pay was too low.

Chrome Dark Mode Code
Where I work doesn't delete branches, because there is no reason to. Git branches have essentially zero overhead and deleting them is just extra complexity in the CI toolchain. Deleting branches also deletes context in some scenarios. When dealing with an old codebase its nice to be able to checkout the exact version of the code at some point without having to dig through the log to get hashes and then dealing with a detached head.

The example in the article is a bit of a special case. It is a huge, and old, monorepo. In the typical case, fetching everything and fetching master is equivalent because all commits in all branches make their way into master anyway. If you have a weird branching strategy where you maintain multiple, significantly diverged branches at once, but only care about one of those branches at build time, then this optimization would save you time.
It's easy to get outraged (as we should) when we hear about a developing country recklessly polluting the environment but it's important to remember that the West has been doing this on a very large scale for a very long time.

Given the low fatality rate for COVID, wouldn't you just want to concentrate vaccination on those most at risk? i.e. the elderly, people with underlying conditions etc.

You don't need to eradicate the virus, just stop it affecting the most vulnerable. Everybody else can then carry on as normal (albeit with a slight chance of getting a nasty flu-like illness).

One key thing that VSCode doesn't seem to have is an in-context REPL - what's the right term here? - that lets you run code in the same VM that the text editing stuff is running in, affecting the editor's state by executing the same routines that the editor uses to do things itself. You use this for anything you want, really, from just driving the text editor from code on an ad-hoc basis to writing new extensions interactively.

This really is the main thing that any competitor to Emacs needs to have, in my view, much more so than the prehistoric keybindings, devoted fanbase, wide range of addons, and nasty extension language. (VSCode has 3 out of 4 here anyway.) Without it, VSCode is much more just Visual Studio with Javascript instead of C++.

That's the responsibility of the FDA, EMA etc., to make sure all of the above is met. However to be open to vaccine injury claims, in the current societal climate (lots of malicious actos and antivaccine disinformation among the public), would risk the financial viability of vaccine makers.

At the time, when births first moved to hospitals, they had more newborn deaths. Mostly because hospitals at the time did not knew about hygiene yet and doctors would do births after treating other patients or doing autopsies without washing hands.
