Independence of administration
Art. 2.

Sweden has a population density and urbanisation rate that is somewhat higher than Norway or Finland, but Denmark is far more dense.

However, Sweden's infection rate is far higher than Denmark's.

Of course here we are comparing a fairly small data set. But fortunately our friends at Our World In Data have collected a nice graph of it:

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/covid-19-death-rate-vs-po...

As you can see, it's not easy to draw a trendline that would show that a higher population density would produce higher covid infection rate. Basically, the pattern is what you get from a shotgun.

Can you include a link to the research from Stanford?

It feels strange to see vague claims that this is based on “model from Stanford” with zero citations or even attribution to the model.
> We are very much seeing a rapidly collapsing overton window, where any inquiry or worse the person that is at odds with a very particular liberal belief is immediately cancelled. It largely asks that ad-hominem attacks and slippery slope arguments be avoided and discourse around heated topics be civil.

I can’t see why you’d pin that on liberalism. This is just a totalitarian mob justice that is also prevalent in alt-right circles. Whining about how academics tend to be liberal is asinine, considering how anti-intellectual conservatives have become.

> siding with the hyper-liberal wing of politics in American discourse

There is nothing left-wing in American politics, much less “hyper-liberal”.

> Yann LeCun got chased away from twitter by Gebru. Anima Anand kumar's tweet displayed an active participation in cancelling and chasing out anyone who does not fall in line with a very narrow definition of equality in society.

That I can agree with, and it should not be tolerated. Calling for mob justice and encouraging your followers to “re-educate” people is utterly appalling (dammit, they even re-use the Nazi and Stalinist newspeak), and she should be treated the same way she’d be, had she called to harass anyone else.

> It is bizzare to see people of science fall in line with claims that don't satisfy even the basic requirements of rigor.

Completely agree with that. These people should also learn some history; it is rife with persecuted people who turn tormenters when the circumstances change.
I don't believe this is correct. Passing a function name to a C++ template doesn't mean it will be called by an indirection at runtime. The compare function will certainly be inlined. Wrapping it in a lambda is useless and would at best optimize to the identical code.
Stadia changes the math a bit. If you’re already targeting Stadia, which uses a Linux variant under the hood, the time to make it widely available might be worth it.
TLDR;
- it's not fixed -> but can vary over time with new jobs, new teams
- it's based on the measurement of what matters to you (your norms), not WHO you are acc. to a personality test
- it's also more recent research

16 personalities is a typical personality test, based on a trait-based approach: Myers-Briggs (originally based on Jung's theory). The Stanford model we use is based on the work of Prof. Charles O'Reilly, who was studying team and company culture and how that relates to performance and satisfaction at work.

So the model we used in the product basically measures more "what's important to you at work" and what your priorities are rather than "who you are" based on a pesonality model.

That also means that your mindset can change over the course of even just a few weeks, while personality is something more stable.
I remember thinking USB2.0 was over complicated, this is absolutely insane.
> So instead the traces are cut into tiny chunks and aggregated and only shown where there are more than 50 people at the same spot.

The same algo that does that could tell the field mapper to go look at roads that are barely used (or whatever criteria ends up being the best), it doesn't need to tell them how many people or who went on that road.

Sometimes I think that Google create their road maps solely using satellite pictures.
All that happens is that they have somewhat smaller protection for a shorter time.

Unless the vaccine or virus is very different from normal ones.

You can go live on an island in Greece, or Eastern Europe, or Columbia - and 70K in those places will GO FAR:

Cost of food: Check.

All depends where you want to live and lifestyle you want.

They just removed chargers from the iPhone box because 'everyone has one' - if they suddenly changed to USB-C on iPhone it would create a LOT of ewaste.

I still think they should switch, but I reckon it's because they'd get accused of hypocrisy if they deprecated it.
I am curious about a thing I read about Sweden, and would be interesting to hear your thoughts on this as a Swede: is it true that nursing home inhabitants per default (and regardless of a pandemic) do not get ICU level care anyway?

In Germany, you typically get 100% care unless you have specified that you do not want it (or your relatives make this difficult call). So the triage threat has been described by doctors as something along the lines of "we would effectively no longer try to treat a 90 year old nursing home patient with severe dementia in our ICU"
That's amazing! I had a C64 as a kid, and never learned any real 6502 because getting beyond "flash the border a different color" was tough: I only had a machine code monitor in a cartridge, and never figured out how to load/save programs.

Being able to inline assembly would have made it so much easier to experiment and learn!

No unsubscribe options as of now. For now, its left to the dev's discretion to not send annoying emails.

Though this sounds like a feature of a more managed solution. I know MailChimp has this out of the box (and possibly other providers).

Since this library is supposed to provide email automation capability, I'm not sure options like Unsubscribe should be part of the library.

What do you think? Definitely open to ideas.
No, I don't assume everyone will follow the rules. But if more people would follow the rules with a bit of discipline, things would be much better. As shown in Asian countries, which mostly don't have a Covid-19 problem. My list wasn't meant as preventing Covid-19 or similar diseases completely, but like things we can do to make the next pandemic a lesser problem in those months during which we wait for the vaccine. Not as a replacement for a vaccine, which always will the the one long-term solution to a pandemic.

One more thing towards rules: it really depends on a society agreeing. Like most societies agree that people should wear pants on the street, woman even shirts. There might be people breaking these rules, but overall society managed to make this a very infrequent thing.

I don't understand the hate systemd gets honestly, except around some very corner concerns. I remember the old init systems and don't want to go back. Piles of shell scripts with absolutely no standardization, each doing its own thing with zero consistency. Systemd has massively cleaned up that mess and yes it's more complex, but also more sane. I don't find the FreeBSD init an improvement.

Nobody is forcing SELinux on you, you can turn it off and that's that.

If you're on a Red Hat based system most of policy is there out of the box, providing you with pretty nice additional protection without too much tinkering.
In terms of COVID, what the Swedish system led to was over reliance on one person. Whose strategy, incidentally, was criticized by his predecessor from the beginning. So if this had happened a few years ago, or if the predecessor would have had a slightly longer term, the same “rational system” would have led to a 180 different response.

And the problem for that 1 person was that Tegnell dismissed asymptomatic transmission. Dismissing the possibility of asymptomatic transmission led to making a mockery of his plans.

Everything since then has been an attempt to save face, including coming up with nonsensical excuses about how Sweden cannot do some things because “free dumb” (which it has since proceeded to do anyways).

Ironically, the faceless bureaucratic nature of public health in most countries allowed them to change tacks when they were wrong. In Sweden, since Tegnell became so intimately connected with and responsible for the Swedish response (to the point that politicians would blindly accept what he was saying), it became difficult for him to accept where he was wrong and then change strategy accordingly.

The rest of the world had it easier. Politicians would blame the WHO and China, public health officials would anonymously blame the politicians, and vice versa.

Within all this blaming it was still possible, as various public agencies in the rest of the world have, to actually change and improve responses based on new information since no one individual was tied to the earlier plan.

Of course, in general, the Swedish system is a lot better. But the pandemic has exposed a flaw that it’s over reliant on a single source of expertise. They mah need to consider having a separate private source of expertise (for example, the UK has something called SAGE) that can step in if the original source is unable to make necessary adjustments.
80% protection for 2 people is better that 90% for 1.
it's not "unlearning" anyway, it's just "learning". I'm trying to imagine how many other things this person would have had to "unlearn" in tech since BBC Basic came out.
That's a really good question and I worry about that myself. I think it might be incorrect to think that there is a "true self" inside you. More realistically I think there are many autonomous modules in your mind that run when needed or called. Your ego is one of these modules. This fear of losing our drive is probably the ego doing self-preservation (for itself).

Meditation helps you to see when these different modules are acting "illogically". Being run or called when unnecessary. A good example is the fear of public speaking. Whichever module is running is based on instincts learned millennia ago. Now it merely hinders us. I very strongly believe that meditation will make you (anyone) more happy and content. I haven't gone as far as I'd like to with it because of this same fear of losing my drive.
While the nationality of the user is definitely questionable, there is no longer such a thing as a PAL or NTSC Switch, only first (easily exploitable) and second (much harder to exploit, has a longer battery life) generation Switches (and the Lite). In this case, my personal reading on this is that an American that tries to invoke "I do not violate DMCA because I bought this at another country", which is laughable if you are still in USA. Note that I despise DMCA as much as you are, but if you are in USA it still exists.

Edit: America to USA. However, Americans (as in people from the US) should note that there are similar provisions throughout Americas (especially Mexico and Brazil).
< 50 yr patients in hospital is definitely still a problem when you only have a finite number of beds, ventilators and staff.

But I do agree their risk is generally lower.
I'm sad you think that about a person you do not know, since it to me is a signal that you are not interested in having an open discussion on the topic

Bonds have an interest rate on them, that essentially equate to the government saying "X amount of years from now, we'll be printing this amount of money". It's a roundabout way of simply printing money directly

If a bond need to be realised the government switch on the money printer and hands it out (though it's not really a printer, since it's all digital). If they hadn't issued the bond they could simply create the exact same amount of money and have the exact same amount of "national debt". Sure it's called interest rates, but from the government's side of the table it makes no difference

The government can print infinite money at any time and there is literally no difference in the taxes needed, the level of national debt, or the government's ability to fund welfare whether they issue bonds or not. Bonds are a plan for how much the government expects to print in the future, not loans that requires taxes to be paid

It's your choice to put me in some box belonging to a "side". I don't see myself that way and you telling me which side I belong to is not really going to change that. It does however make me sad to read your message. I think the world already has too much conflict and the only way I can see out of it is with dialogue, openness, and empathy

Putting people in boxes, on a "side", or assigning them a label prevents all of those and will only create more conflict and more frustration

I'm guessing you're scared of the concepts in MTT, since you're comparing it to the tobacco industry.

My personal experience is that understanding people you disagree with is the best way to move past being scared. I hope you make a choice for yourself to approach disagreement in a more constructive way for your own sake

I'm fine with you having a different worldview than me, but I'm not really interested in hearing what you have to say if it's not done in a respectful dialogue, so I'm not interested in discussing this further with you
Perhaps, but it's not so easy to generate user submissions. Scraping would quickly get you a lot more data to work with.
I fully support the right to repair. I am a tinkerer myself. After looking into the details of a few of these cases I don’t believe Nintendo is in the wrong. A lot of these so-called hackers who have been targeted by Nintendo do this stuff in bad faith. They end up using the result of their efforts to build businesses based on pirating Nintendo content.

Once they get caught they will nearly always lie through their teeth about their illegal business activities and claim they are innocent open-source hackers or whatever. It’s really deceptive and more offensive to me as someone who legitimately likes to tinker. For the most part I disagree with the DMCA anti-circumvention law but in nearly every case I’ve seen the people being targeted were doing much more than just selling mod chips.

I have seen it claimed that, roughly speaking,

- The sale price of the Xbox itself pays for the per-unit cost of the machine

- The percentage Microsoft gets of the sale price of games, adds just about enough to pay for the development and marketing costs, so at that point, the business doesn't do much better than breaking even

- But when you add in the ongoing revenue from online gaming, that's where the profit comes from

Can anyone confirm or refute this?

>Because a private company has no right to tell me what to do with the hardware and software I legally bought from them.

Interestingly, Nintendo's explicit message was not that the hacking was wrong, but that the sharing of the hacking was wrong, because sharing the hack encourages piracy on a larger scale. It's hard to argue with that logic, TBH. And I actually admire their soft touch approach.

My sense is that this is not that big of a deal, to Nintendo or anyone else. The platform, the physicality of "normal" distribution, plus the general inability of people to successfully mod their stuff, all favors Nintendo naturally.

Seems like a tempest in a teapot, and if anything, I don't think it harms Nintendo's reputation at all (modulo sensationalist headlines).

This sounds like a well-run program with a full-time internal recruiter to manage details.

Good recruiting programs are very similar to sales processes and should be treated as such. Swap out the pair programming sessions with sales pitch meetings and this whole process would look like what the best sales people do, right down to using a CRM to note personal details like the applicant’s newborn child.

It also seems to stand in contrast to the author’s unusually bad interviewing experiences at other companies. I’m always shocked when people describe interviewing at companies with interviewers who act jaded or annoyed with the interview process. If your interviewers clearly hate their job or hate interacting with you, you probably don’t want to work at those companies.

On the other hand, currently the covid infection rates in Sweden are flaming red in the sparsely populated Gävleborg and Västernorrland counties which you can hardly describe as "urbanized". The counties in Finland (Österbotten and Sadakunda), across the Bothnian Gulf on the same latitudes, have higher population density, but have not had this high infection rates, at least so far.

But I agree with the point; urbanization rate in the sense of having lots of people using public transit might have significant bearance on the spreading of the epidemic, while population density in the sense of people/km² is utterly irrelevant.

These two options can work well:

1. The Radiohead model: download and pay anything from 0$ to X$ as you wish. IIRC with the Radiohead release X == 100$.

2. Sell Merchandise. If your game features a character like Lara or Mario, this could go very well.

There used to be a lot more of this in the early days of indy development. Postcardware for instance, were you would "pay" for the software by sending the author a nice postcard.

Population density is a red herring on it's own. Spain has a relatively low population density, but the cities are probably some of the most dense in Europe. Likewise 1/3 of Swedes live in cities, while there are huge areas that are very sparsely populated in the north.

Might be... but (I assume; I don't have any specific knowledge) that Stadia runs everything on a single known software stack, and quite possibly a single hardware stack. This would make it an easier platform to target than the wider range of general consumer hardware running Linux.

Personally, I run Linux as my daily driver and I hope game developers see the success of Steam's Linux support and decide that targeting Linux is viable and worth doing. But I wouldn't assume that building for Stadia necessarily has a big overlap with building for consumer Linux.
