The uncertainty is not exclusive to QM and is a property of any ‘wavy’ system, it seems. It is inherent. Here is the example: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MBnnXbOM5S4 — if you want to defeat QM, attack its wave-part.

It would be nice to have much better (deterministic, measurable) physics, but some properties just emerge from a fundamental level and you can’t do much about it (monster group etc). Nature and maths don’t care about our confusion and convenience.

>should have refuted it and looked for something better instead

Afaik, the time when theories were driven by ideas is over. Today it’s petabytes of data that you can’t really argue with over a mailbox, only discuss. (I’m just a layman physicist with deep interest, but shallow understanding, so please don’t quote me on any of this)
I have used famotidine as a prophylactic in the past(decades before covid year) when I realised there was a connection between my respiratory issues and GERD.

The GERD itself was seasonal. I initially tried ranitidine but famotidine(safe at low doses and no longer than 21 days at a time for me) was better. I tried explaining to my doctor who kept brushing me off. Eventually I quit telling her and sorted it out myself.

Worked fine for me. Having said that.. I am female. Frequent and very high doses of famotidine can cause ED for some. Cimetidine has the highest risk and ranitidine the lowest.

ETA for OTC ref in the US:

cimetidine aka tagamet, ranitidine aka zantac, famotidine aka Pepcid

This is not medical advice
Gentoo has USE flags to use gnutls+compat_layer rather than openssl. This is/was possible because they was a strong-ish push a decade ago by GNU aligned projects to force this down the throat of each package because OpenSSL had a problematic license exception deemed incompatible with GPL by some. The heathbleed fiasco helped this push. Then with LibreSSL, diversity survived a bit longer.

However, now that OpenSSL work to solve "all the problems" is starting to get into releases distribution actually can use (OpenSSL 1.1.1*) and will eventually be able use after extensive effort (OpenSSL 3), I don't think this support for TLS diversity will survive very long. The technical and licensing being solved, only the philosophical/political ones remain, which isn't enough for the large effort required to support multiple TLS libs.

FWIW, silent hypoxia can onset quite quickly. I was monitoring my oxygen levels following a positive test, and my O2 sats dropped from 95+ to 78 in about 12 hours (I'd more or less stopped monitoring it as I generally seemed to be recovering, hence the long gap between values).

As a parable it’s just about interesting.
As for the story it’s not very good and has to many holes which detracts from the meaning.
Old news dude, you got fooled by post date.
COVID is a terrible bioweapon. It's fragile, with an outer lipid membrane that has to be preserved. It's not very lethal to people of military age, and spreads readily between people making collateral damage inevitable.

In all fairness, lots of old stuff are being re-posted. Not that it is necessarily a bad thing.
Hospitals are running out of oxygen in a way: so much is going through the pipes that the upper floors have low pressure, and the oxygen pipes occasionally freeze from adiabatic expansion. In LA.
It might interest you to look into the "digital signage" market. It is displays made for hotels and conferences and the like and they don't have those smart features (yet). Picture quality likely isn't going to be top of the line, though, so it depends on what you value.
Distracting for sure.

It's also useless to the vast majority of readers, but since it is useful to some, a better option would be to have "X connections" (or "X colleagues") note that expands into a list on click. Color it gray, right-align and you now have a secondary info for those who need it, but out of the way for those who don't.
The problem was that for a healthy person, ventilation just moves your lung physiologically, but for very sick patients parts of their lungs are like inflamed tissue paper so the forced inflation could cause problems.
Can you describe how? Advanced Cardiac Life Support protocols (ACLS) are fairly standard in both pre-hospital and hospital settings. Specifically because it's critical, paramedics are trained in ACLS.

EMT-Bs aren't, but the BLS ambulances they staff shouldn't generally be assigned as the only responding unit for cardiac arrests, anyway. And given that, it's not clear why you think there will "absolutely" be excess mortality.
Well well well. Junkies banning junkies. I love it.
There are so many unreasonable assumptions baked into this parable that make it difficult to take seriously. Any amount of meaningful investigation by the aliens would yield more insights into the fact that the game is in fact not a random coin flip. Even recognizing that white has a slightly higher win rate [0] would demonstrate some asymmetry that suggests the existence of a deeper structure or symmetry-breaking.

With this we help to make renewable energies more accessible and affordable.

Currently, we are hiring in multiple roles and are looking for candidates from Junior to Senior with any background.

We are not fully remote but in a hybrid model, where remote work is possible but frequent office visits are required.

Our engineering headquarter is located in Aachen (Germany) a city close to the Netherlands and Belgium. As such we also have people from those countries work at gridX.

The open roles are:

- Backend Developer: Build software systems for the cloud that power our API servers, process data or manage the fleet of devices. If interested apply here: https://gridx.jobs.personio.de/job/62771

- DevOps Engineer (SRE): Keep the platform running, well monitored and alive. Help a small team to build software that supports our developers to build, test and deploy their code and assist them in questions about system architecture and reliability. Looking for candidates of all levels from junior to senior. If interested apply here: https://gridx.jobs.personio.de/job/62780

- Go-/Linux-System Engineer: Help us build a modern energy management system that is running on our Edge Gateway on customer's premise to locally connect to a large variety of renewable energies. This is a job at an intersection of multiple disciplines. You can work with experts in Energy Optimization and Management but also help build that software, release it and take care it is running properly on a very large fleet of devices out in the field. Apply here: https://gridx.jobs.personio.de/job/62843

My understanding is that some hospitals have a central oxygen system, no different from how we are all connected to the water system and water comes out of the tap.

If too many taps were open, nobody would get enough water. Well, too many oxygen taps are open.
Yes, and I suppose that's some of the point: a performant library ecosystem is one hell of a feature.

iirc, back in ~99, Unreal Engine was doing dithering on the u/v coordinates (!!) for texture mapping instead of bilinear interpolation. They used fixed Bayer matrix.

This was quite faster, visually pleasant, and was adapting nicely to viewing distance.

Try freezing some close-up frames around 0:45 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXA3360awec

Tim Sweeney called this technique "ordered texture coordinate space dither", apparently:

> Now they're trying to just use lots of oxygen, but that doesn't work either.

Do you have a citation? I was hospitalised with Covid-19, and that was my primary treatment (100% oxygen CPAP was required to keep my O2 sats above 90% - high flow nasal oxygen would cause it to dip below 90).
Why don't you try to get into ISRO? It has a Mars program. With the kind of work that they are doing, I think setting up a Mars colony will be somewhere in their future plans.

Ultimately Mars colonization could well turn out to be a multi-nation, public-private endeavour.
So being in some capacity at any of the global space programs will increase your chances of directly contributing to Mars colonization.
The way I usually phrase this situation is something like
"The goals of a strong government are in direct opposition to the goals of most modern cryptocurrencies", and this is yet another subset of those goals where we can see the forces fighting against each other. I find it hard to convince myself cryptocurrency can win out in the long-term, as the more rules they find ways to skirt around via technology and decentralization, the more they will be clamped down upon by regulations.

You can spend a decade developing a provably-anonymous cryptocurrency (which we have indeed now done), and all it takes to break your anonymity is a law that forces you to report all transactions on a form, or else face prison time.

FinCEN was particularly aggressive and quick to act here, so I do hope they change course, especially given the unusually short comment period. This is where cryptocurrency users should be thankful for some of the less-centralized bodies in the ecosystem (e.g. Coinbase) who will happily spend millions (if necessary) to help fight these actions legally on behalf of their users and business.

The website is not particularly well designed. I have to scroll down a 2/3 of the whole page filling _button_ first, to get to any readable content. Perhaps that is why it is treated as spam to Google. Reader mode in Firefox helps of course to repair the page.

Aside from that, yes, this is what happens, when we rely on Google traffic. Only advice I can give besides designing well (not necessarily according to Google wishes though), is to not get too dependent on Google.
Also, manufacturing, supply chains, and shipping have been impacted by the pandemic.
US Banks Now Able to Use Stablecoinss and Blockchain, Says OCC
Lots of sources. This one is from April 23, 2020:

Special Report: As virus advances, doctors rethink rush to ventilate - https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-ventil...

This is not even a good source, just something that I linked to in a previous comment here.

Remember how the governments were rushing Ventilator production, then those efforts got memory-holed? This was because the professionals realized they shouldn't try to ventilate every COVID-19 patient in their hospital.
It sold well also outside the UK and I remember fast mode. But I might miss the joke. Was FAST something / somebody in the UK back in the 80s?
Hmm, that's pretty interesting. Especially since even Matrix public channels (not sure if only by default or required but it seems like all public groups are plain text) are unencrypted.
I'm a little bummed that this repeats the standard apple-vs-the-FBI (in the San Bernardino shooter case) false narrative.

Apple provided all of the shooter's phone data, unencrypted and available to Apple thanks to the non-e2e iCloud Backup (on by default on every iPhone) to the FBI.

The whole "Apple is naughty and won't unlock it for us!" narrative was a coordinated marketing effort carried out by Apple and the FBI following the Snowden/PRISM thing.

Apple doesn't need to backdoor the phones. iOS uploads a complete backup of the phone's data, effectively unencrypted (in that it's encrypted to Apple and Apple can decrypt it at any time they wish without the user, their pin, their password, or their phone) every night when it's plugged in.

> OpenSSL turned out not to be as unfixable as it seemed

Well, clarly not, the LibreSSL developers seems to have managed.

I haven't been following OpenSSL, but to what extend have the library actually been cleaned up? One of the complaints the OpenBSD developers had was broken memory allocation (well, de-allocation really), heaps of spaghetti ifdefs, support for non-existing platforms, hardcoded randomness, exposed private APIs and other weirdness. If the LibreSSL team managed to yank out half of the code, wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that the OpenSSL developers have yanked out at least some code and rewritten thousands of lines?

Given the massive reworking of the OpenSSL code by the OpenBSD, I guess I just question whether or not the OpenSSL developers have been through a similar process.
I hope you don’t mind me asking but what’s the purpose of having a comment in the top to direct to different pages. There is already a more button on the bottom which makes the top comment kind of redundant.

Also a tip for others when HN is slow or almost down (like when Google was down): you can open a private tab and navigate HN from there. Since you’re not logged in, you’re served a copy from cloud flare. It’s usually out of date by 1min or so but good enough for reading in my opinion.
Although reasonable, one theory ("the bat coronavirus was transported by scientists to the lab that studies bat coronaviruses") involves no illigal activity. On the other hand the counter-theory ("there was illegal bat trafficking from a small mine in Yunnan") involves speculation that something happened that we don't know about. Strictly speaking, the lab leak theory has more observed evidence. Presumably the Chinese government would have identified and explained if they found bat traffickers.

We know the lab was aware of RaTG13 - they produced a sequence quickly that no-one else had seen. I know nothing about the situation but it would be interesting to know where exactly the sample was being sequenced. I doubt they did it in the mine, samples must have been transported to some lab.

I used to think 99% chance zoonotic, but the fact the similar virus was known to the lab was enough to drag me to thinking it is probably a toss up. Lab leaks do happen, this lab was studying bat coronaviruses. It is possible.
In emergency medicine, you've got patients who are dead, and patients who are dead dead.

Patients who are just dead might still be brought back. This isn't about them. Patients who are dead dead because they haven't responded to resuscitation efforts aren't going to be taken to the hospital, is all. And in a lot of places that's already the norm.

> Cheap mass testing at home, regularly, for the whole family. Even with less sensitive quick tests it should be possible to suppress ~50% of new transmissions this way, which could bring case numbers down to traceable levels in 1-2 months.

I agree it's a good idea, but doubt that it would bring case numbers "down to traceable levels"...we know that the vast majority of transmission (>70%) is happening in the home, and the vast majority of interactions (>90%) don't produce more than a single infection.

You essentially have to catch the connecting edges on a sparsely connected graph -- you don't have to miss very many for the problem to be unsolvable.

I do think it would go a long way to making life more normal. It's completely idiotic that we're killing restaurants (for example) when we could be making mandatory rapid testing a pre-requisite to indoor dining, instead.

The same goes for nursing home and hospital staff -- nosocomial infection has been a huge problem, and most fatalities are out of nursing homes. I get why you don't want to depend entirely on quick tests that have an elevated false-negative rate, but when it takes days to get back a PCR result, it's useless for screening staff.

> When one has too much power or capital, the ability for one to rewrite the laws that govern the taxation of the accrued private property (intellectual or physical) increases as well.

This is conflating power and wealth. When one has too much power, one is able to seek rents. Often this takes the form of government-sponsored monopolies. However, one's security costs increase faster than one's wealth, so wealthy people have an incentive to capture the government and outsource their security costs. This is actually contrary to private property norms as it socializes costs that are properly born by the private entity.

> This is why those with the most private property can essentially do as they please;

This is absolutely backwards, the rich have more money, this incurs benefits and drawbacks. For example, they have much more to lose in the event they are found liable for anything.

> the benefits they derive from their private property are disproportionately high compared to the cost that society incurs protecting their private property.

That would be an argument for expanding the scope of private property (because we are able to get disproportionately more benefit at disproportionately lower social cost).

> For instance, the workload that the government is tasked with to protect private property of these elites at home (e.g. the large amount of police resources that need to be available for large tech campuses or in rich areas)

One imagines that the benefits of a low-crime society might be extended to people who don't live on a tech campus or in the Hamptons.

> Either through taxes or government stakeholdership in corporations

Its probably best to spend more time identifying the problem before we grasp for solutions.

> has worked hand in hand with the elites to steal and pillage the private property of the common man (e.g. how Warren Buffet's secretary pays a higher tax percentage that he does).

I agree, working professionals are taxed to death. Taxes on wages and salaries should be lowered to match the ltcg rate.

> Things are getting worse in the US as public institutions are eroding or becoming more kleptocratic

Have you considered this to be a weakness of the way those institutions are structured?

> some libertarian wet dream of privatization of everything is the answer (private military and private firefighters come to mind

Tbf its probably better to have these institutions working for the people who enjoy their services and pay for them, rather than the current system.
