See Patreon for example. Or see the sex games that get banned from Steam, vs the ones that stay. NSFW is sorta allowed, but there's no real consistent rubric. Once you start actually organizing or tagging kinks, pretty much everything outside of vanilla pisses someone off. It seems like not really advertising kinks is the way to go for now.

And that 'someone' is usually the payment processor (paypal, mastercard, etc. etc.). So I recognize it's not Patreon fault per se (which is probably why it's so inconsistent).

Some of the most sex-negative people in my social circle are atheists btw. Sex negativity is shared on both the left and right.

And strangely enough, some religious people I know are strangely sex positive. (See the myriad of gentlemen's clubs in the south). It's not so cut and dry as just blaming religious groups on this one. Yeah, Church and sexuality don't really match up but its not like everyone believes 100% what the various churches preach.
You should make a poll about that.

Notice how accessing the locals is done via a separate Base Pointer register EBP instead of the Stack Pointer register ESP (in fact, ESP-based addressing mode is encoded really, really ugly on x86), so that pushing&popping of temporaries doesn't mess up the loads/stores of local variables.

Yes, the code quality is appalling but... it works. In fact, I think Nils M. Holm's T3X compiler uses a similar approach as well.

Of course, if you can allow yourself to use some IR, you can actually assign registers to variables and temporaries and do a much better job.

Because the rate of vaccination is still supply-limited at the moment. If everyone who would have received the J&J vaccine could get a safer alternative in the same time frame this might make sense. But they can't, so it doesn't. Do the math. It is all but certain that more people will die as a result of this pause than without it, even if you assume a worst-case clotting risk scenario under the current data.

The online argument about this is raging about whether this is a stupid decision and I’d like to side step that well-trodden path of vitriol to ask more broadly: what’s the deal with Covid and blood clotting?

I know personally a long hauler who has blood clotting issues and low platelets. They fall into the demographic of concern with the JJ and AZ vaccine. Anecdotally we have lost both a close relative and a young and healthy friend to Covid blood clotting related issues.

Again, I’m not weighing in on the FDA’s job. But just saying: as someone who’s anecdotally been hyper-aware of the blood related aspects of Covid, this thread has picked up my ears and I’m really interested in finding out what the linkage here is.

I agree. Also, I was intentional vague. When I wrote it I was thinking of more extremest discussions around people glorifying mass murder. Which doesn't necessarily fall under a nsfw tag.

> there are plenty of people just waiting to have their anti-vaccine confirmation biases triggered

You’re probably right, but if we keep trying to front-run people’s reactions to events over and over again, I’m not sure we’re going to get great results in the long run. I get the impression that anticipating how people will respond to news is engendering more extreme responses to future events.
No, just dangerous for your users.
It's unethical to give people a vaccines that can cause a blood clot without informing them first of the risk.

It doesn't matter that globally it could cause more deaths. It's not the job of the FDA or CDC to act as your parent and decide for you what risk is and isn't acceptable.

Informed consent is a cornerstone of medical policy.

What will happen is they will modify the consent form to let people know about the risk, and let them decide for themselves.

And here I am a world traveler at 40 loving French tacos. I guess perspective is everything. Maybe one just has to break out of their protective shell and not be a snob about "lower class" things.
I don’t know how I feel about calling tacos “French”. I mean, yah you can only find them in France, but the dish itself is anything but French. Kebab joints have them and their cuisine is typically halal. I’m not sure how/when kebabs grew in popularity here in France, but they are everywhere now!

I’ve been living in France for the past 8 years and I first noticed the word “taco” about 4 years ago. My first thought was: “Sweet, Mexican food it’s making its debut in France!”...nope, it wasn’t anything like a the tacos I’m familiar with!

Tacos themselves are pretty interesting, and highly customizable. Want a taco with sausage and cordon bleu? You got it. Want to stuff it with more meat? How about donor kebab with a hamburger patty and nuggets? Your options are endless. Its standard to have fries inside them (with some sort of white sauce). I have had some that are quite tasty. But make no mistake, it’s pure junk food. I’d love to know why they call them “tacos”.

One thing I will note, kebabs are always open. I equate them to your typical Mexican joint you go to with your friends for a midnight snack. Seriously, I have never seen a kebab restaurant closed. You gotta be careful, though. There’s little to no health inspection at these places and I’ve heard some bad kebab stories.
For many people the risk of serious complications from COVID is similar. I am a young, healthy introvert working from home and enjoying the social isolation in a location that does not have explosive spread right now. The product of "probability of getting COVID" * "having serious long term effects or death" is in the same ballpark for me.

I would still get this vaccine (or the AZ one) if offered because I consider it my duty to be part of the herd immunity. But not everyone will do that, and the moment you have people in privileged position refusing one of the vaccines, you start (1) exacerbating inequalities (2) fueling conspiracy theories, mistrust, and vaccine hesitancy.

If you assume that the world is perfectly rational, then you are right, but it is a running joke on HN to point out how economists used to make that same mistake and derive silly conclusions.
The Long Tail of Aphex Twin’s ‘Avril 14th’
Came here to say this too. There are thousands and thousands of companies that have built adobe based workflows into their processes for decades and rely on sending adobe files to other companies with adobe software... thousands of people whose professions are based on mastering their complex software... I don’t think a lot of people heralding their death here have seen how broad and deep they reach within specific industries.

They are certainty messing up their massive lead, but are more profitable than ever and could coast on their deep roots for at least a decade. I’ve been hoping to see strong competitors against them since I started my career... 15 years ago... and they’re just starting to get viable rivals for some of their applications now. No one’s really trying to compete with them in the print industry, which is shrinking, but not going to be gone soon.
New buildings do have to have sprinkler systems - it's the older ones that are the problem. You can add cladding to a 1970s building without having to update it to the latest fire safety rules.

Also it is illegal to put extremely flammable cladding on the side of a building. The problem was that if someone sells you "non-flammable cladding" and they are lying, nobody properly checks.
I love how people are complaining about this decision without addressing the fact that there are two other vaccines that don't have this issue that have been used orders of magnitude more.

Why wouldn't you pause J&J? It's just a drop in the bucket in total vaccinations anyway and the other two don't have this issue.
This is terrible and wrong. The middle class haven't gotten "poorer" for forty years, they've just grown less quickly than the richest - based on the phenomenon Paul pointed out.

What's happened is the uber-rich are becoming hyper-rich due to tech, and in RELATIVE terms everyone else is growing less quickly.

But that's literally exactly what you'd expect and it doesn't harm them one iota - the cheaper and more plentiful tech, however, helps them.

The moralistic decisions shaping parts of the internet and technology are getting pretty ridiculous. I'm not interested in making any grand statements or drawing parallels to Orwell or what have you here.

But sometimes I really just want to indicate my situation by pointing an emoji gun at my emoji head, or respond to a friend with a GIF some might consider offensive, and I really think anyone who can be trusted to use the internet should also be trusted to handle that ability somewhat responsibly, and eradicating it from our communications repertoire like this really does not serve anyone in my view.
Quiet no thinking allowed. Thinking kills grandma.
No, it's not "too dangerous", rather it's "we did not warn people about the known risks".

If you warn people about the small risk of blood clots from the vaccine, then you can let them decide if to receive it.

That's what informed consent is all about.
Non-Safari browsers (apparently) don’t and can’t respect iOS parental controls so of course they would be 17+.
Yes, we do, and a cursory Google search will confirm this. Stop spreading disinformation and FUD.
> Why would we pause a vaccine because 6 people in 7 million got blood clots?

Because J&J isn’t the only vaccine in the inventory, and the others don’t have that problem (or, IIRC, the same level of other adverse reactions), and because:

> Why would we do that and risk fueling anti-vaccine viewpoints?

What risks fueling anti-vaccine viewpoints is ignoring adverse impacts which are known and plowing forward, especially giveb that people often don’t have a choice of which vaccine they are administered.
All of these vaccines are approved under emergency authorization- the long-term effects are still unknown. At this same rate (6 in 6 million+), there could easily be unnoticed issues lurking in the alternatives as well.

What we do know is that the alternative to not being vaccinated is much worse.
On non-jailbroken iOS devices the only way to install apps is through the App Store or through some convoluted methods which involve having a developer account (which you must pay yearly for), and I believe the % of jailbroken iOS devices is much much lower than the % of people willing to install Android APKs outside of Google Play, anyway. Sure, they _could_ do that for few people who have jailbroken iPhones, but doing that is pretty much like giving up on their iOS app altogether.
So I recently found this too, but I found a loophole to get me out- if you change the plan to a more expensive one it gives you a 14 day free trial of that plan first.

I see, thanks. I'm asking mostly from a model airplane perspective, where you have a receiver, GPS, mag, transmitter, etc. Right now they use UART, with only the mag using I2C, but CAN sounds like a better solution, especially given the amount of electrical noise you get from the motors/servos.
The auto industry is also moving towards smaller geometry parts. Not least of all is the sensors, self-driving, telematics, radios and such. There are issues in terms of environmental conditions, aging and such, but it is happening.

Conversely, a lot of the trouble with 10nm and smaller manufacturing is that they shrank the transistors but didn't shrink the dies -- or rather, the ones that did succeed didn't "make a giant 5nm CPU" but they decided to make chiplets instead.

If you really could make the monolithic 5nm part it would crush the chiplets in terms of economics since advanced packaging is more like circuit board assembly than lithography. Maybe they can do it now with new pellicles, but today small geometry parts go good with small dies.

The UK did not go through with the porn block. You can perfectly well set up an account without any NSFW filtering, and as far as I can remember, it wasn't even 'opt out'. I'm with Virgin--oh the irony--and have never had any filtering.

J&J was the best option for those who didn't want to dabble in experimental vaccine tech. Now there is no choice.
ArrayBuffers aren't meant to be executable code either.

JS strings are not UTF-16, they are 16-bit chunks of (potentially) nonsense, and enforcing valid UTF-16 would break quite a few existing uses. For example, anything that stores encrypted data in a string. Which "shouldn't" be done, that should be a Uint8Array, but existing APIs basically force you to do it. And there's such a thing as backwards compatibility.

Your 3rd point is much more feasible. I doubt any "real" mangling would be good enough from a performance standpoint while still being too difficult for attackers to use. But I could imagine eg breaking any invalid UTF-16/UTF-8 string up into separate rope nodes, maybe even ensuring the nodes don't get allocated too close to each other and/or injecting disrupting hardcoded bytes in between them. (I work on SpiderMonkey, the Firefox JS engine, and we do at least make sure to allocate string data in a separate part of the heap from everything else.)

Software just rots like a smashed watermelon in a tropical jungle these days if you aren't actively developing it all the time.

From the post:

> Call options are a better model than debt for cruddy code (without tests) because they capture the unpredictability of what we do. If I slap in an a feature without cleaning up then I get the benefit immediately, I collect the premium. If I never see that code again, then I’m ahead and, in retrospect, it would have been foolish to have spent time cleaning it up.

> On the other hand, if a radical new feature comes in that I have to do, all those quick fixes suddenly become very expensive to work with. Examples I’ve seen are a big new client that requires a port to a different platform, or a new regulatory requirement that needs a new report. I get equivalent problems if there’s a failure I have to interpret and fix just before a deadline, or the team members turn over completely and no-one remembers the tacit knowledge that helps the code make sense. The market has moved away from where I thought it was going to be and my option has been called.
Thanks too lol a nice bedtime vibe
Please then, post your source and post the alternative that doesn't have the issue (orders of magnitude more).
As of today about 560,000 people in the US have died of COVID, or roughly 1 in 574. I think it’s safe to say the odds are higher than “1 in a million”.

> Not a doctor, but from what I've heard from immunologists, vaccines in general are incredibly unlikely to have long-term side effects on the scales that you think about.

Fair enough, but the comment I responded to said: "We know that there are no side effects that are common enough to be of real concern."

Given this statement is not qualified for timescale, I want to know what the basis for it is.

How does the person who made it know there are no side effects on the order of six months or a year that are common enough to be a concern?

Look I am all happy chappy with the vaccine, I will inject that sweet MRNA Pfizer or Moderna vaccines as soon as someone lets me at it, but I still think we need to avoid what Fauci does, which is knowingly lie in order to get people to do what we want them to do.

There is blood clotting risk from AZ? Great, tell me what the risk is and I can deal with it, but lie to me and we are done talking.
Indeed. And the Japanese invasion that lasted 8 years including WW2 isn’t that long ago. Nor the border skirmishes with the USSR, the war with Vietnam in 1979.

I agree that China has enough force to make any invasion difficult but it’s certainly a risk of being attacked at home.
> I'm not really sure what there is to learn here, apart from the fact that the EU has been a phenomenal success in its real purpose - keeping the peace in Europe.

This seems to have very little to do with the EU.

European countries that have experienced peace since 1945 did so because they were militarily occupied by a nuclear-armed hegemon—either the US or Soviet Union—and hence had their borders secured via mutually assured destruction.

France is clearly positioning itself to be the new nuclear-armed hegemon of Western Europe as the US pivots towards either greater isolationism or focus on Asia and the Pacific.
