> Surely the best way to examine the true impact of COVID is to understand the raw death figures

Is it though? As an example motor vehicle fatalities went up sharply in 2020. Is this due to the pandemic?

If anything the pandemic should have decreased car accidents, because miles driven went down. It seems there’s possibly an orthogonal force at work. Possibly the rising market share of monster pickup trucks, which are particularly deadly to pedestrians.

My point is the pandemic was obviously the biggest change that happened in 2020, but it wasn’t the only change.
I was in my teens when I started reading the Fountainhead. After 50 pages, I could see how she was heroizing Howard Roark and never finished it. One thing I could tell at that age was her worldview didn't seem to value mercy. So f- that!

I’ve been using dorik for about a year now, haven’t ever been disappointed. Incredible product, my go to for landing pages and even multi page sites, and I’ve tried a dece amount of others. They’ve continued to improve the product and have added a ton of sweet sweet features lately.

The customer service is also top notch - whenever I’ve needed help, I’ve gotten responses back within a few hours and the team goes above and beyond to help me do what I want to (integrations with other tools etc).

So yeah. It’s cool. Oh and check our their public roadmap, can add feature requests and see what they have planned for the future
I find that hard to believe - the opposite, resistance against the employee surveillance Office 365 enables, is a hot topic in most German unions right now.
The constitutional court in germany already made a ruling that specificially rules out removing the protections of article 79. (Correction: It was not the constitutional court, but it is the current interpretation among lawyers and judges.)

The logic is rather sound: The article already protects the principles of articles 1-20, not the articles themselves. So changing article 79 to remove the protections is already touching on these principles, and is therefore inadmissible.

Katakana, to me, is such a trouble. I really wonder whether I'm the only one who believes that Katakana is a big part of the reason, why it's very hard for native Japanese speakers to learn English.

In a Japan of today, you grow up with a plentitude of words taken from English and written + pronounced in Katakana. So you learn to pronounce "san-do-i-chi" for sandwich, "de-za-i-na" for "designer", "su-ma-ho" for smartphone, "ca-re-n-da" for calendar. And since you use and pronounce them wrongly on a daily basis you reinforce the Japanesified pronunciations. Then, actually pronouncing "calendar" in an English way becomes tricky.

So to me, the alphabets are a great example of a "historically grown" system, that's ripe for a "refactoring".
Japanese has this distinction of animate/inanimate although I don't think(?) it's connected in any way to Proto-Indo-European. Anyway in that language it's subtle and weird. Living humans and animals are animate and paperclips are inanimate. Dead bodies - inanimate - unless you're talking respectfully about a deceased relative. Dolls are inanimate sometimes, but I've also seen them use the animate version (haunted dolls?). Camels can, according to [1], be either depending on whether you look at them as an animal or a mode of transport.

Isn’t something like the MIT License open source but not “free software” in the rms sense because it does not encumber people who build on it to in turn produce free software themselves?

The open source page also says “ The license must not place restrictions on other software that is distributed along with the licensed software. For example, the license must not insist that all other programs distributed on the same medium must be open-source software.” which would seem to disqualify the GPL.

I think this is a factor, but not the major one. The major one is, you can prepay for delivery using a streamlined (and unified) interface that accepts just about any form of electronic payment you can throw at it.

The direct-from-restaurant alternative to that is to be sure you have cash in small enough denominations, or negotiate over the phone for them to take a card terminal - which may not be available, or may extend delivery time significantly (there's usually one or two terminals shared by all drivers, so they have to coordinate orders), or the driver may forget and cause an awkward situation (happened to me). Or you can hope that the restaurant has an online ordering/payment form (most don't) and that it works (many don't) and accepts your form of payment (it's a wash).

In my effort to not use the gig economy services, I now ensure I always have small-denominated cash at home set aside for delivery orders - which is a noticeable hassle over just paying with two taps/clicks during ordering.
Why, exactly, is one supposed to be respectful of - to put it mildly - people who are "not even wrong"? What is the purpose of that respect or, conversely, what is gained if we dismiss out of hand criticism because it is not respectful?
What specifically looks bad there? The only decision I see is that string handling doesn't need to be in the language and that it should be a concern of the standard library. That doesn't seem unreasonable to me. Or at least, not as unreasonable as you make it sound. It's true that Rust and Go have language level support for Unicode strings, but the actual language features for it are quite light. It buys a little bit of convenience maybe. But the vast majority of the burden of those string types is carried by the standard library.

I didn't understand your point at first, but I said “werċild”, with a “ċ”, contrasting “wīfċild”.

“Child”, not “gold”; “wīfċild” meant female child, but there is no “werċild” attestation for “male child”.
My bad, I didn't mean to include Redux then.

My commentary is more directed at React and Jest (as I try to steer away from that ecosystem, even though it's ideas aren't all bad):

- As GP indicates, React has had multiple API implementations to solve similar problems, feature bloat, leading to opinionated and differing best practices, mixed in with Junior devs can be a nightmare

- With Jest, I find the entire thing as a very aggressive wrapper and very tied to React itself, features like unit test `snapshots` are developer slack-off bait and have the benefit of further entrenching itself into the repository, arguably an e2e test would validate the same thing
Given that, I think we should change the acronym to GLOSS.

But "random farmers" have almost no bearing on the ACTUAL coffee supply chain. Starbucks doesn't use the local farmers market for their supply chain because it's not reliable. They have contracts in place that are fulfilled through obligation.

If anyone on this site has built a business that relies on wikipedia having accurate information at all times I'd call them crazy too.

In the same way I wouldn't call this "enterprise" as they have plastered all over the site. Using spare capacity on a bunch of random usb drives that users happen to have online gives me no guarantee of uptime. With a 20+20 they're betting that 21 users won't experience an outage at the same time, and that if a large portion experiences outages that they can rebuild faster than users fail.

Without knowing anything about where the users are coming from, or what kind of contract they've agreed to, you're just giving a company your data that has told you: it'll be secure, TRUST ME!

No. In Chinese it's 此处 (simplified Chinese) or 此處 (traditional Chinese).

Thanks for the context! There's a lot in here that I didn't know.

That said, I do think that as soon as you rename a branch (example Perl 6 became Raku), it stops being a replacement. It's not even a branch at that point, it a fork. It's a new entity entirely, with all the pros and cons that this entails.

If the goal was to replace Perl, it shoulda stuck with Perl 6 as the name. No?
Fixing the GtkFileChooser is not the main problem, it is getting your patches merged. Someone from the Gtk team needs to review them and put their stamp of approval on them. But the Gtk team are RedHat employees and they prioritize whatever the company wants them to prioritize. And if the company doesn't want them to prioritize the GtkFileChooser, your patches will languish on their bug tracker. If you are lucky, you'll get a message two years after you uploaded them asking you to rebase them to HEAD because the code base has changed to much that your patches can't be merged without them being significantly reworked.

I think that India bought that coal; China is now relying on Brazil, which is having its own problems.

Chinese sanctions on a broad range of Australian products were being supported by the Trump admin ("America First") but that is now changing. If conditions deteriorated and iron ore sanctions happened (by either China starting something in the South China Sea or some stupid Corona sanctions) then the Chinese economy would grind to a halt and metal prices globally would spike, and we'd be melting containers down for their scrap value.

What web server do you use?
I had thought that Bach (JS) was influenced by Handel, but then read they were born the same year and did not meet. In terms of the influence of early and baroque music on Glass, Bach's giant and diverse catalogue could contain specific influential pieces (Vivaldi also wrote a massive number of pieces in the same era that apparently influenced Bach), but when you listen to the Handel's styled and less formal music, that's the baroque music I would say has more in common with Glass' style.

The good news is, for your own GRID documents, they're going to be backed by a spreadsheet file you made or already have access to.

However, in the case of GRID documents made by others, it's up to them if they want to make the underlying spreadsheet model available to the users viewing the GRID document. You can see an example of this here: https://grid.is/@sigrid/scenario-analysis-user-funnel-P1yGUF... – at the bottom of the document, the document author has made the spreadsheet available for anyone.

Hope this helps.

I'm not really able to influence the DA. I've contacted them about rights violations related to a trooper knowingly holding a charge without probable cause, and they won't do anything.

The only reason they did something with this police department is because the grading was very clear in the statute and the police department posted false information about it on Facebook. So it was blatant and public. Unfortunately this false charge issue is only blatant and not public. So they just want to sweep it under the rug. Although I have contacted an investigative reporter to maybe change this. And maybe an injunctive relief civil rights filing with the FBI/DOJ.
Best way to assess the impact in terms of deaths, but don't forget that the impact will also be on those suffering long covid symptoms.

My wife was first ill with covid this time last year, and is still suffering now. She didn't get covid that bad, wasn't hospitalised, and prior to falling ill was working out 4 days a week and a damn busy person.

Now a 15 min walk can see her needing to sleep it off for 2 hours.

We are very lucky that she wasn't working before this, as there is no way she could have worked this last year. She knows of many others who have lost jobs, houses and even partners due to the impact of their long covid.

So I'm always a little touchy when people act as though deaths is the only factor to record.
Ooh... reminds me of a throwaway experiment I did a few years back - WebRTC for radio outside broadcasts. It never went far as we ended up going down the SIP path instead. Nice to see the idea going further though there are commerical products now that work on this basis (IPDTL is one that rings a bell).

Both approaches were a great improvment over the need for an ISDN line but you could run into problems running higher bitrates on "spotty" networks. Thankfully you didn't need more than 128/192kbps for broadcast quality most of the time and could get away with even less for voice.

What other sibling comments is true, but it's worth noting that there are cases where spoken Japanese can be ambiguous, and people disambiguate by... mimick-writing in their palm with their finger.

> Politics is about power, not laws.

This, exactly. I think constitutional guardrails are an effect, not a cause, of healthy democracies. If there is political will to do something bad the law can always be abrogated, edited, reinterpreted or circumvented. The existence of a loophole isn't surprising. The existence of a law without them would be.

(Same applies, mutatus mutandis, to smart contracts.)
I agree that the meaning of the word "free" is often subjected to the perversions that you mentioned. And talking about the meaning of words, I would be very grateful if you could also be careful not to dilute the meaning of the word "fascism" by using it as a stand-in for any politics against personal freedom, and not to distort the meaning of the word "liberal" by focusing it on a very narrow extreme interpretation of its base principles.

Beware of charging words, whatever the reason.
I generally agree but in this case the damage was already done. The Zodiac sent three mails to local newspapers and the San Francisco Chronicle was the first to publish the cryptogram (all of them was eventually published though). The Zodiac continued to send most subsequent threats and cryptograms to the Chronicle expecting quick turnaround, and I feel the Chronicle essentially fed the Zodiac Killer in midst of its battle against the Examiner.
Rand's philosophy has not held up well, given the strains of unfettered capitalism.

According to Rand, every comment on this forum is pointless because it doesn't gain us dollars, therefore we are doing nothing of value, unless this leads directly to employment (anyone want to hire me?)...In my view, her philosophy was very weak.
Yeah, there are things to consider. Everything also depends a whole lot on band size, country, city etc.

Regarding venues, being from a city with around 1 million people, it’s pretty much always a solvable problem. Theaters, movie theaters, music venues, gallerie, stadiums, rented stages... it is, in my experience, a very solvable problem. If it’s a big band, you throw money at the problem, if it’s a small gig, make something fun out of it. The concert only gets better if you put the act somewhere fun or unexpected. I’ve done shows in wine cellars, on ferries etc.

Still survivorship bias. We tend to assume that because they cracked it, anyone like them could've done that in the past. In reality, maybe even the author had a chance of 0.001% to crack it and they just got lucky in choosing the right paths and having the right intuitions.

It's the same in many parts of research. You obviously would've had no chance without their expertise but just because a researcher discovers something new does not mean there's no luck involved.

I think there’s a few important things to understand:

1. There probably wouldn’t be free or open software if not for Stallman. We could argue it was inevitable, but frankly, Linux (the OS) wouldn’t have been built when it was without his efforts. At the time of gcc development, even compilers were big money.

2. Stallman is definitely on the autism spectrum. Nothing wrong with that, but one of the primary indicators are social issue. It’s not at all surprising he’s rigid, pedantic, etc. having met and organized event(s) with Stallman, he’s definitely a character, but I’ve never really seen him be outright mean. Simply put, he can be off putting, not politically correct and argumentative, but that’s kinda his baggage.

3. Free and Open source are definitely not the same thing. As we have seen from Amazon jacking peoples work and not giving back. Exactly what Stallman argued would happen has burned a large part of the open source community. Not saying there’s not a lot of good, but the concern was definitely warranted
