In the U.K. there’s no evidence of any change in suicide rates in 2020 (it’s normally about 6,000 a year). Registration delays means that we don’t know the numbers for 2020, but early indications are not much change (suicide has been increasing though and is at a record high)

A much bigger issue is the lost of QALYs from lockdown but not from deaths, including the socio-economic impacts.

> The clients are open source

But you can't verify that the open-source matches what's on the Play Store, you can't link to the official server with your own build, and you can't run your own because the server is no longer open source. (Last released a year ago)
> I never really understood why Matrix invented their own thing instead of building on an already existing IETF Internet Protocol.

Indeed. For sure XMPP has ugly corners (disclaimer I never implemented anything, mostly read some XEPs). I believe parts which are quite clean are the pub/sub part and the message archive (MAM). Afaik the current group chat extension (MUC) isn't so great (once you try to add history multi-device) and some people are trying to refactor it on top of pubsub (MIX) but it's not very active.

The matrix team clearly had precise ideas about the right way to do federated group chat and in fact (again afaik, my matrix knowledge is dated) their "rooms" seem to be quite flexible by not being completely tied to a particular server (several servers participate in hosting a room). Imho matrix has an edge in designing this from scratch and already knowing what the hard parts are from the beginning and i hope the good ideas will come over to XMPP. Perhaps some day an XMPP server will support matrix, making more clients available to the network (well integrated clients on every plateform is the real hard part for every distributed network).

Politics.

This is how hospital software is handled (at least in Finland). The one making the decisions is the head doctor in the hospital, because they have the most power.

They know fuck-all about software and fuck-all about the day to day work of the nurses and doctors who need to use the product every day.

And this is pretty much how we ended up giving Epic Systems 774 million for their MUMPS-flavoured piece of shit rebranded as "Apotti". And the project - started in 2015 - isn't even done, nor bug-free yet. The American model of everything being cost first didn't fit the Finnish model of medicine - to the surprise of no-one outside of the organisation.

It was so bad that other cities refused to use it and went with their own solutions instead of using Apotti.

Isn't the issue that health insurance often doesn't cover everything. And that it's very difficult to get health insurance at all if you have pre-existing or chronic conditions (exactly the people who need it the most).

NumPy is incredible to me: it serves not only as a critical bare-metal layer, but also an essential tool in its own right, and I can’t imagine using Python without it. I do numerical work—ML/data science/statistics—and I simply couldn’t accomplish any of what I do without the functionality provided by NumPy. np.array alone is worth all the king’s gold.

It is interesting to me that in many respects it serves as “guts”. I definitely drop down to use numpy directly with regularity. But it’s also possible to do 80-90% of the job without ever explicitly using the module itself. It’s baked in everywhere, to the point that it feels like just another standard library.

Exciting to see progress! Keep up the good work, numpy team :)

> I will push whatever I want to, thank you.

Let me rephrase that: When making an emotional appeal, you aren't making a sound argument. It's effective, but also intellectually dishonest.

> Insurance is supposed to provide healthcare.

Healthcare providers provide healthcare. They need to get paid. Insurance providers offer the insured the possibility to spread the risk of large individual healthcare costs among many participants.

If you have the opinion that health insurance should be a universal right, you will also have to consider that those countries who have such systems also put strict limits on the extent of end-of-life healthcare.

> I shouldn't have to pay extra for care that I was always paying for because you're mad your rates went up.

If costs go up, rates go up. As your individual risk goes up, your individual rates go up. The more you pay, the better your insurance is going to be able to cover you. You're going to pay extra either way.

What are you going to do if you can't afford insurance anymore, except the most basic plans that are capped at the top? You're not going to be able to afford that last round of chemo.

> Don't like it, don't buy the care.

So... let the prices rise until nobody can afford insurance anymore, then blame the people for not buying it? Medicare-for-all? I'm afraid that won't pay for everything either.

> Ridiculous assumption to let society decide when people should live and die.

That's the way it works either way. If you lived in a hypothetical society that goes to any length to extend everyone's life to the maximum extent possible, then that society decided that.

> On the populations we are talking about, individual cases like people living long on chemo in miserable lives to die are counteracted by people who died way younger.

People who died way younger also stopped paying way younger. It's also rare. The chance of developing cancer in your lifetime is 1 in 4.

Furthermore, in many cases, the effectiveness of chemotherapy is quite low, especially considering its severe impact on QOL. Many doctors refuse chemo after receiving a terminal cancer diagnosis, opting for palliative care instead.

> It's easy to calculate the risk and spread that among insurance holders.

It's easy to calculate the cost, it's not so easy to actually get it paid. Suppose your cost rises by 10%, so you raise prices by 10%. As a result, revenue goes down 5%, because people drop out of insurance. You need to raise prices again, or reduce coverage, increase co-pays, and so on.

I don't see why the USA or Canada can't do what NZ did. If you are serious about stopping travel into the country by closing the border to travellers - and actually quarantining the residents who come back home - then you only have the relatively minor flow of illegal land crossing. Neither Canada nor the US have even tried.

A few weeks ago, I tried doing this with the LADSPA version of RNNoise and ALSA, but couldn't get it to work reliably.

I have also experimented with NoiseTorch which routes the microphone through LADSPA using Pulseaudio but it didn't work reliably either. The biggest problem with this is that Pulseaudio will load one CPU thread 100% even when no audio input. This makes it a deal breaker for laptops.

I will definitely check this out. RNNoise is truly amazing tech, but it is not as accessible as I would like. The best use if it is in the Mumble client where it is an optional setting.

It is a shame Nvidia has taken over this space completely with RTX voice. RNNoise does a comparable job without the need for an Nvidia GPU. But I guess it is because RNNoise is just not as easy to setup.

Why ecommerce needs product diversity
I wonder if this is some sort of an organised thing. I think there are services that sell a take down service so that they upload questionable content on the competitors apps or websites and then report it.
The federation is chatting around the clock. Remember, joining a Matrix room means that your server needs to handle all of the room's traffic. And 25 users can easily be in a lot of large rooms. However, each room only needs to be handled once, so if more of my users join a room in which my server is already participating, the cost doesn't increase.

That said, this isn't an average but a spot value. It frequently falls below 8% (though typically stays above 5%). Note that this is a cheap and relatively weak VPS.

I'm not saying Matrix is terribly lightweight. I'm saying you can easily run a small personal instance on a cheap machine without any performance problems.
Yeah I agree there are no other western countries with zero covid except a couple island nations. There's also no other countries which have seriously tried to get covid to 0 except some island nations - which is interesting.

I'm convinced the most important difference is policy, but I wonder if there might be some psychological effect of living on an island all by yourself which makes you think "Well, can we just pretend the rest of the world doesn't exist?". Those thoughts might be harder to think in Europe.

> It’s basically like saying the state of New York could have been able to drive COVID down to zero while other states had it exploding.

I think Canada could drive covid down to zero by closing the US border, then enforcing strict lockdowns. (And apparently they have closed the border to the US.) I think the US or the UK could do the same if they wanted at a national level. Well, at least in theory. I acknowledge it would be much more difficult to do the same in a small european nation. At least, it would be difficult to do it alone.

In the 1990’s I compiled a rather large set of cliches and stock phrases intended to help users avoid them in their writing.

I later discovered the compilation was in demand to help users accurately select their cliche of choice—exactly the opposite of my intent.

Decades later I am content that these widely used catchphrases are not damaging our language since they have a broader semiotic purpose of, for example, to show tribal affiliation, e.g., “diamond hands,” and not merely a basket of denotative glyphs.

But that is not to say that a writer is not enriching the language by using a fresh metaphor that adds another sharp facet or just the right amount of bokeh ambiguity to the discussion.
theoretically, the economy overall may not necessarily be zero-sum.

Even fewer funding available for Series-B. zero-sum.

This principle should be applied to all sectors. Basically capitalism is still young and we didn't have situations in the past were small companies could consolidate indefinitely so that they can at some point get so big they have more money than some countries.

Is it? (genuinely curious) Can't one see the matrix server-server state synchronization protocol as a transport layer for MAM archives? And pubsub nodes in XMPP are very matrix-room-like. This could be an XMPP extension allowing to multi-home pubsub nodes.

Also, there are recent matrix proposals [*] for representing several things (groups and user profiles) as rooms. Given the analogy room=pubsub, the user-profile-as-room seems to be the same thing as XMPP's PEP (used to share personal data, like public keys or avatar). And the group-as-room would be the MIX proposal.

> Preliminary support for the upcoming Cython 3.0.

Type annotations seem the biggest deal to me. I'd say if you care a lot about SIMD and the performance issues, you should be thinking of moving to Julia: it's still a valuable technical achievement.

Hey, thanks for building this! There are multiple options like this for Pulseaudio, but last I researched it nothing for pure ALSA. On a system without Pulseaudio this is obviously better, great to have.

The pulseaudio plugins like noisetorch have the issue of significant system load even without current sound input (something about how the loopback works iirc), will this alsa plugin share that issue or will the system load be lower when currently there is no sound input?
