I thought there was going to be a two year control group because that was the plan published on ClinicalTrials.gov run by NIH.

> The moment somebody in a trial could get vaccinated via some other channel, they'd drop out and get unblinded

If this is such obvious common knowledge why wasn't it in the plan? Why isn't it in the training?

I am 100% open to fundamentally and drastically changing the way we test medicines and vaccines et cetera, but that's very different than just making decisions willy nilly that just so happen to align 100% with shareholder interests.

Yet another media piece we can safely put in the rapidly growing pile of material designed to drive a wedge between White people and Asian people.

You have to understand that this is a deliberate attempt to push Asian people who actually have successfully established themselves and their families in the West into taking part in this new Woke Mob. These articles do nothing to actually address the issues Asian people face here, which are often minimized away by people across the spectrum as simply being 'microaggressions'. The goal is purely to create anti-White sentiment amongst 2nd and 3rd generation children of Asian immigrants who are growing up more privileged than their parents and are in a prime position to be fodder for this movement.

Reject this. The fact that people of Asian descent have succeeded so well even _despite_ the fading vestiges of racism that persist in the West is a very, very unfortunate truth that many seek to bury. It's a problematic fact, because it shows that in reality, work ethic and intelligence have far more to do with success than prejudice does, at least within the last sixty years. The only way to bury this reality is to blow every possible incident out of proportion and drive a rhetorical wedge in between the races, for divide-and-conquer purposes.

There are valid racial issues that need to be aired out and addressed between White and Asian people, issues that can and are being solved generationally; all of this effort will be thrown out if Asian people give in to the media's push to skew everyone possible toward an anti-White style of rhetoric.
Change your job. I've been there, I'm currently there. The issue is not you -- it means there's a systemic issue with the company or your management (or both). I wish I'd learned this lesson earlier.
I like the concept of incentivizing storage through a self-governing decentralized system. I don't like that it's named "-coin" and that its website clearly trying to ride the wave of blockchain hype without explaining the basic economics of the system.
This is interesting stuff.

I'm trying to figure out how to refer to flatMap directly from the abstract function, e.g.

flatMapTwice(x, fun) {
return x.flatMap(fun).flatMap(fun);
}

or

chain(x, fun1, fun2) {
return x.flatMap(fun1).flatMap(fun2);
}

It should also preserve the type information (just like you did above). I don't want the caller to need to downcast from FlatMappable.

It doesn't need to be x.flatMap(f) - I'd be interested seeing a flatMap(x, f) version.
I thought macOS mail rules could also run a snippet of AppleScript. Wouldn't that make this an RCE?

Or maybe the script has to exist in some folder this vulnerability doesn't have access to?
I think it's possible that in some communities with high proportions of anti-vaxxers, Rt could remain at 1 and continue to cause deaths a little past May 15th before organic herd immunity is achieved.
A collective delusion that we can have our cake and eat it too.

In my early 20s I enjoyed challenging my friends on what they would do to make the city more affordable. Got a lot of proposals that essentially boiled down to “control who can live here, kick out everyone that doesn’t fit and cap the city’s population”. Don’t ask me how, I never got a straight answer whenever I pointed out the problems. People can express what they want, they can’t usually tell you how they would obtain it.
Please don't use "zero" and "vulnerability" in the same sentence, unless you mean a zero-day one. The author could have said "no click vulnerability" with the same meaning. Almost caused me a concern with that title! :D :D

Based on the descriptions in this link, I don't think crypto neatly fits into any of these categories.

It's not quite fiduciary money because there is no issuer that gives any promises of convertibility. Perhaps you could argue there is some implied promise of convertibility due to the prominence of fiat<->crypto exchanges?

It seems closest to commodity money, because it's value depends on asset scarcity, but it's not a real commodity with utility in and of itself. Then again, it's not clear that gold was actually valuable to people before they started using it as money. It's possible that use as jewelry emerged after use as money to peacock and show off wealth, and industrial use is a relatively modern invention.

Crypto is a novel invention of self-securing abstract scarcity. It's a scarce number in a database. Its scarcity is assured by the properties of the network, rather than trust in an issuing authority. It just doesn't fit perfectly in any of our pre-existing categories.

That seems crazy, especially considering Sia and others have functioning alternatives with no such insane requirements. Maybe they're trying to corner some certain performance oriented market, but that guarantees nothing about network performance which I suspect will be a much larger impact than any of it.
The Golden Age of the Video Game Arcade: 1985
No, it was released in 1992 and lots of pcs had more than that at the time. It required a 386 (ideally 33mhz) with 4 megs of ram (I found the installation manual on an abandonware site), and was super fast on a 486.

It's because racist Americans don't want to live near blacks, reducing demand, and because of perception of blacks as always being poor.

Here's an example of the same house in the same neighborhood being appraised much higher when the appraiser didn't know there was a black occupant:

Make does what you tell it to do. While some projects have the setup that you've described, many others do not. Make will only check the timestamps of the generated assets and decide to build (or not) based on that.
we're starting to hear it. Fresh air (part of APM/NPR and typically much less factual than NPR news) noted that drug overdoses were up by 26% last year although I'm not sure they attributed it to the lockdown.
If anyone has fiat lying around causing them problems I'd be happy to take it off your hands. I'm certified for proper fiat handling.
You'll find similar statistics in almost any city.
Once every adult has had the chance to get vaccinated, there is no reasonable argument for lockdowns.
"You can easily jam or overpower a faint satellite signal with a local ground-based antenna."

Not doable unless either you are in between the dish and the satellite, or have an extremely powerful transmitter with its directional antenna pointed to the dish, where all that power is needed to cope with the fact that the maximum sensitivity of the dish is towards the satellite, not your jammer.
Which also means that they need one jammer and its antenna for every dish they want to silence. That would not scale well.
Not really, no. The vaccines developed a year ago are mostly effective enough against the strains circulating now though, so it may work out for the better.

(the "spike" that the vaccines target is important to the virus, so changes to it often make it much less infectious or whatever, and we don't really know how much room is has to both escape the vaccine triggered immunity and stay highly infectious)
That definitely plays a big part, but banning high density housing is a major contributor to the problem SF is facing.

Crypto currencies might have space and maybe someday a good one might appear, but so far, it's all a Ponzi scheme.

Why not just build an application to mirror their data in a distributed manner using Torrent and let people support their efforts by downloading it?
Yeah seems like a weird combination of both PoS and PoW which gets the best of neither. Would've been cool to see a novel PoW here that actually translates into actual "work" for the network.
Bribery. The military has separate networks which it doesn’t shutdown and if you know the right people and have the cash, then it’s possible to get added to it.
> Depression, joblessness, separation of families, separation of bi-national couples, suicides, financial stress, hunger, a collapsing economy.. These things need to be taken seriously.

It seems to me as if many politicians have never taken those things seriously, before the pandemic or during it.

I've also noticed that some politicians suddenly say that they care about those problems during lockdowns, yet they haven't pushed for any legislation to actually help mitigate those deep-seated issues. It seems to me like they're just using those issues, and the suffering of others, as tools to complain about policy they don't like.
Bring me Dreamweaver back
This sounds like a case of blaming the user for poor UX design. If the users that the system is designed for are constantly making the same "basic mistakes", then the system isn't designed well for them.
Sweet! :) I think it has a lot of potential for sure. There are things we needed that none of the other "low code" platforms had, and it's been a lot of fun to build so far. And it's been great seeing people use it!
Yes, I like this. That's quite a fun way to get the point I was trying to make across indeed!

Hello, my name is Dillon. I like thinking about ways to make technology approachable. Put another way, I like translating nerdy stuff into tools normal people can use. Computers are magical to me and I want to contribute my work to something more meaningful than, say, advertising. Instead, I want to bring this magical-feeling to people through my work.

My career has manifested in digital design, but if given the chance I would love to try designing physical things, too. In my work I value simplicity, accessibility, and reusability (I was a front-end dev for four years and understand the value of designs that can be built easily).

I'm a boring designer. In my free time I design the most boring Mac apps. For example, here is a mockup interface I made for an open source macOS app that I love: https://dillonbrown.me/images/mockups/finicky-1.png. To me, boring is beautiful, boring is usable and reliable. I don't make dribbble show-ponies, I make workhorses.

Please take a look at my website (https://dillonbrown.me) to get a sample of the kind of work I can make for you.

Steps to get rich (millionaire) with No code in one year

Decentralizing it would be far more simple if they provided something such as an application you could download and partially mirror some parts of it, for example.

Eventually, given enough interest, they'd mirror everything. Maybe they could even build this on top of Torrent.

Just circumstantial:

* Politicians using it as a technique to divide people. It definitely ramps up around elections

* Bots on twitter and Reddit pushing it

* Meeting several "woke" people deployed by the state department in foreign countries

* The narratives are all usually very flawed and crafted to cause outrage rather than right previous wrongs or bring people together
Nocoiners have already lost all hope. They're not even trying to FUD anymore.
Great. No app should see anything besides what is logically necessary to fulfill their actual function.
As usual, HN is not one person. Also, I think most people are pretty skeptical of anything -coin / -blockchain - like AI and Cyber it sounds like a lot of the money is spent on marketing and there's a good chance the whole thing is just a cash grab or a pump and dump.

This is not against Filecoin specifically - I don't know it -, but if you tried to sell me "AI generated code enhancements", I'm going to be skeptical based on that name alone, as well.

It’s more of a desire to “keep housing affordable [for me without decreasing quality of life by attracting more people]”.
Yep. Plus, it's about as easy as it gets, and I get to conceal myself from facial recognition cameras. Win-win-win.
Wow - I can't even install dotnet on a linux machine because the packages repo is down.
The difference is that before you could try and do something about those problems, even if politicians didn't care. Now those problems still exist, but people are forced to stay at home because keeping a low infection rate is all people care about.

Around the turn of the century, I worked for the city of St. Petersburg (FL). More than sixty percent of the single family housing was non-conforming to base flood elevation requirements. Much of what wasn't in the flood plane was non-conforming to zoning because people built on the high ground first.

And then there was Isla del Sol. Dredged from Boca Ciega Bay, it destroyed the incredibly productive fishery and is the reason the ACoE became involved in reviewing projects for environmental impact.

That's they way cities are. They build and learn.

That Steem example is interesting. I wonder what the basis for the voting system they have there, though.

Anyway, when you have a democratic (or otherwise subject to popular influence) institution which can do things like "print more money", forfeit some part of existing money, levy taxes etc. - then indeed it's an interesting and potentially positive-in-my-opinion cooperative pooling of resources. Of course then you have the opposite problem, which is the tyranny of the majority, but "you can't grab the rope at both ends".

My comment was about how on-screen, software keyboards eat 1/2 the active screen.

The Priv had a slide out hardware keyboard, the optimal solution IMO. Full size screen on the device, hardware keyboard too.

I know what you mean, but the keyone didn't lose 1/2 its screen, to lose something, you have to have it first. If it lost 1/2 its screen, it would end up with 1/4 of phone's length with usable screen.

Agree with all you said about software keyboards.
