Regarding the "lack of information for those caring for the elderly", that sounds fairly implausible, because information about the epidemic has been abundant.

The proportion of old people among the dead is not much different in Sweden from other comparable countries; it seems to me that any strategy with "protect the elderly and let the younger people take the hit" is doomed to fail. The more infections there are in the general population, the more infections there will be among the old and weak. And of course even the young and fit will also have a proportion among them who get seriously ill.
This.

I'm about to go out bicycling for about four hours. Have been looking forward to it all week. It's a bit of a chore until I get into the flow, or perhaps until the traffic light density recedes as I leave the city, then it's so good.
My understanding of the political system in Sweden is that the administration is unusually independent and not very political. That leads to way more rational decisions compared to if politicians made the decisions. Also the infections were distributed very unevenly in the population with immigrants (Somali in particular) being disproportionally affected https://apnews.com/article/1d7916cf6e48b7a231b894ef9cda1a19.

There are some cases where squeezing every ounce of performance out of the hardware matters, but for most use cases there is a reasonable "good enough"; and these results show that BSD and Linux are comparable. I think the killer feature that the BSDs have, which Linux can't match, is how well designed, integrated, predictable, and simple they are. That is why I run more BSD servers than Linux servers. I do run Linux servers for some cases, and they work well for those cases, but I much prefer working with BSD.

Where's the terrain humans struggle with? At the most extreme it climbs a small mound of rocks and gets stuck.

It's cool we can build something that can do that semi-autonomously but it's lightyears from being as capable as anything biological.
I do. I remember adding a lot of buffer time just in case I wouldn't be able to find my way. It is much more convenient now with G-Maps and other providers. I also remember how expensive the maps for the early navigation systems were and how bad they were.
Now that you bring it up, I remember the port enclosure to be particularly treacherous.

You misquoted me for some reason.

I try to use Apple Maps when I can because the app is much simpler, smoother, and impacts the battery a lot less. I find the traffic data to be good. But it's still lacking in quite a few areas (in western Europe at least). Basically for now it's usable if you already know where you're going, and it's not a long road trip, and you're not cycling.

- Their data isn't as good. Easily half the businesses are missing, and most businesses don't have details like hours. Even the road type and quality is unreliable in some areas, leading the routing to prefer bad roads that are technically shorter in length but worse in time in reality.

- No reviews, although it's coming in the future it seems.

- Speed limits aren't indicated.

- Speed traps aren't indicated.

- No cycling directions even in major cities, although it's coming slowly.

- It doesn't display areas of interest, like Google Maps does in yellow. That is essential in a city you're not familiar with, to know where to go to find active streets.

- No street view in most places, although it's also coming slowly. I find it very useful quite often, like finding a street with free parking before navigating there.

- Transit directions use theoretical schedules, not real-time. Google Maps doesn't either, but Citymapper/Transit does.

- It doesn't have data on "busy times".

I wish there was a way to contribute more efficiently to the map. That app is improving slowly but it could be much faster with trusted local mappers (or local employed mappers).

In my opinion Apple Maps could "easily" get a significant lead on Google Maps if they added toll prices, especially if it optimized your route for time vs price. It's a major feature missing from every service now.
A map is a set of key,value pairs, and the set lookup function only considers the key in the comparison.

This is what it looks like if you just leave the rails in... less than 10 years after last use.

http://wandel.ca/pic.cgi?a49c9652

The absolute key is to still have the right of way. Bonus if the bridges are still sound. Putting the rails back is trivial and all the other infrastructure (signals, level crossings, safety fences etc) has to be renewed anyway.

In the case of disused (bike trail) rail corridors around here (Ottawa) I think the chief concern would be NIMBY pressure. Going from a quiet bike trail to a busy commuter train route... OMG property values!

> that doesn't mean writing a new browser engine is impossible, it only means that it doesn't make much economic sense for a company to do so. Those two are not the same thing.

This is basically what I said in my first comment above: it's always technically possible, but is it practically possible. One needs a certain small amount of economic support to continue any project (no matter how small) these days. Whether it's feasible via donations/etc. or whether some kind of commercial setup is required isn't really super-relevant. The only question here is: if it's the former, can the income support employing devs to work on it, or can voluntary developer contributions maintain the project long term (for which you typically need a large community, with which you typically get further scaling & cost concerns).

It's notable also that Flow is not open source, so Opera is actually a very good comparison here (and much of the above donation/volunteer-based thoughts are not options here).

Cleaning your plate when you decide how much to put on it is one thing, cleaning it when your parents decide is quite another and IMO harmful.

I've told my children that they should usually clean their plate. Not always, because noone's perfect, but if they make a mistake often it's time to think about what they put on that plate.
>It doesn't sound like there was a containment breach.

Trace amounts were detected in the melt water. Plutonium does not exist in nature, all significant amounts are man made. I think it's likely that that plutonium came from the lost RTG fuel rods. The article explicitly mentioned that the American climber was tasked with handling the fuel rods and loading and unloading the device. They lost it at their base camp, not where they intended to deploy it. I believe that would mean that most likely the fuel rods were not yet loaded and sealed into the device and were instead still inside whatever lead lined box they were transported in. I don't know what the actual fuel assembly would have been for a plutonium RTG fuel rod from the 60s but I have a feeling it wouldn't stand up to 60 years worth of corrosion in a wet
and warm environment outside of the generator it was supposed to be assembled in.

As for the radiation amount, I meant in the hypothetical scenario of comparing it to a lost but undetonated nuclear weapon which would be substantially less radioactive. I'm well aware of what a half life of an isotope is. The half life of Pu-238 is basically as bad as it gets because at 87.7 years it'll take a substantial amount of time for the radioactivity to subside yet as far as half lifes go that's pretty low and would still be highly radioactive. Pu-238 in a water source is pretty bad and while it might be trace amounts now, if the fuel rods are compromised after all that time they're only going to get worse and start leaching out more and more.

If we put aside the protocol failure (accidentally giving half dose then full dose), and ignore the fact that they tried to not discuss this for some time until called out on it, of course, you can't stress-test (injection of virus to actually test for immunity) as it's not ethical.

So the summary metric is the Vaccine Efficacy, calculated as 1-relative risk, where relative risk is the incidence of infection in the vaccine group relative to the incidence of infection in the control group.

So with N = 75 the targeted number of post-dose infections, and V = # vaccinated out of the N, P = # placebo out of the N, are they saying that 100*(1-V/N) is the efficacy ? Then if it's 50%, it actually means you have no benefit over the placebo.

I'm not versed in Chinese law, but in Germany there are states where you can be imprisoned indefinitely for being a (vaguely (un)defined) danger: https://www.sueddeutsche.de/bayern/terror-abwehr-bayern-will...

Of course there is some "due process" in that a judge needs to agree. But I guess some judge can always be found to agree to that vague stuff.

So even in western rule-of-law societies, I think the Chinese situation could be justified in existing laws.
Traditionally, Sweden has compared itself to other Nordic countries, which, as mentioned, share the same cultural/demographic/socio-economic factors.

Now the comparison points have suddenly switched to Italy and UK, or I've seen even Peru and Brazil. Which really screams "denialist".

https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus-data-explorer?zoomToS...

For the note, I don't think it is meaningful to compare these statistics between other countries than OECD members. For instance, the Wikipedia list you mentioned indicates currently 45,000 deaths for Russia, whereas the Russian deputy prime minister has now said that the figure would be 186,000.

The crims have obviously worked out that it's much easier to subvert the "users" rather than have a head-to-head battle with IT. If a user (even a careful one) clicks on a link in an email, should they actually be held responsible for what follows, or is it the fault of IT/Security whose security setup allowed an email with a dubious attachment to make it through to the user?

I know many intelligent, conscientious, non-techy users who'd be mortified to think they enabled a ransomware attack - but is it their fault?

Population density calculated is not really a meaningful measure if you want to figure out how "densely" most people in the country live and it's completely useless in this case.

Sweden has an urbanization rate of over 85% and if you only look at the density of the area where most of the population lives it's not that different from countries like Denmark or Austria and some degree to Germany.

The way I see it, you are just a single data point to the senior people. You mention something, they hear it from a couple of other places and they are now convinced that its a good path forward.

You can put your black hat and game this by making sure you suggest whatever you’re after to more people/sources of info that your target listens to. Bonus points for going through intermediaries that obscure the source of the idea.

At some point, your senior decision maker has his “epiphany” as what you want is “what everybody is talking about”.

Interestingly this is something we talk about with my partner as a lot of times one of us would suggest something, the other might be dismissive, but then someone else would suggest, it gets done and and I/she would get upset that “you listen to them but not to me”.

But in reality whats going on is that we are both waiting to accumulate enough data points to make a heuristic work.

Once that became apparent we’re much more understanding to each other.

As for managers, if they smart enough, they would notice that a lot of the things you’re suggesting ends up what being done, and at some point they would value your points a lot more. But hardly anyone would use only one source of input to make their decisions.
If that comes out, it will be a game changer, but I wonder why other manufacturers aren’t doing the same?

Sweden's neighbours share similar demographics, climate, legislation, administration, health care system and to a large extent also cultural traits.

Swedes do a bit more of greeting people by hugging and even cheek-kissing than Finns or Norwegians do, but they all are a far cry from Italy, France or Belgium in that respect.

Thus, with so much similarity in background variables, the policy differences towards the epidemic are highlighted.
