It might be arrogant, but not supremely. Maybe the line leaves me out of deciding the content I can consume. I'm pretty stupid out of my fields of interest anyway.

Joking aside, it's taken me lots of effort, but if anything is important to me, my life, or my loved ones, I double check it, even if I agree with it or I'm naturally inclined to believe it. I've also learnt to love to stand corrected, and to say that I'm wrong.

But that's unfortunately above what most people I deal with on a daily basis are able or willing to do, supremely so when you bring religion or politics in the mix. And that's normal, and thoroughly studied[0]. That also means that, in many subjects, people already made up their minds and aren't actually taking decisions, as you suggest they are, but having psychological knee-jerk reactions.

I just wish they'd gone for something that was easier to crimp.
If I have my numbers approximately right, getting the J&J vaccine is a bit safer than taking a plane trip, while getting COVID is about as safe as taking a trip in the space shuttle.
CCP shills do nothing to me.I hope CCP pays you well for spewing this "BuT We lIFt 300M ppl oUT of pOVeRty".
Showing a modicum of effort gets you far abroad. The Japanese gave me full marks for effort when I spoke to them in my very rusty Japanese language I'd mainly acquired by university classes and college-age weeabooism. Getting drunk and proactively looking up unfamiliar words/phrases in Aedict helped matters -- and I think I'd learned more Japanese in those two weeks than I did in three semesters of college. I can confirm: swallowing your introversion, just for a bit, and engaging the locals in their local tongue, pays dividends, regardless of how shitty you think your skill in the language is.
It doesn't have better resiliency, when you just need more RAM than it can offer at reasonable cost. I mean a comparable VPS is more than an order of magnitude cheaper. It is not the best advice to burn money on infrastructure, if you don't need to. Yes, start on Heroku and get some users first. Migrate to something else as soon as you cross the $50 mark or so, you will get much better performance and most likely stability for the same money.

Most companies I know wouldn't really profit from k8s much if at all. A handful of VPS's setup half automatically using Ansible and a few clicks will be probably just enough. You will know, when you need to scale out to many servers when k8s is probably the better approach. You will probably have people doing just that full time at that point.
That’s not really true, we give lots of drugs IM because the muscle is highly vascular so it generally shoots out all over the body really quickly. Ie want to take down a patient with Ice (crystal meth) induced psychosis? IM. Also, it’s hard to miss most of the time.

If you want something to sit around for a long time, you go for less vascular areas. (Ie insulin for diabetics, subcut abdominal fat)

IM is preferred because of the vascularity which helps in the immune response (ie quick immune response, antigen distributed around the body) as well as any immune reaction confined to the muscle rather than, say the skin.
(0) is a quick and dirty on mechanisms of administration.

To your earlier point about ‘into’ a vein, I’d never heard of Dr Campbell before you mentioned him, he seems to have great credentials, but I can’t easily explain why an accidental IV administration of an IM vaccine would cause CVST, my gut is that it’s a bit of a hand wave but who knows.

It's surely not a showstopper when it's on one line, but again the problem in practice is that those slices may be other operations or hidden behind other APIs, and happening at different depths in a complicated call tree, and you get an error only up at the top when what you're doing looks "clearly correct".

Yes, sure, the rule in question may be simple in the abstract (it's a compiler, after all -- they're just software doing straightforward things). But the ability for the poor programmer to detect which rule is being violated where is a lot more limited than the compiler is designed for. Thus the user with the upthread complaint, which is hardly unique.

I mean, at the end of the day if Rust wants to be an everyday language for this kind of everyday problem, the analysis paradigm needs to be communicated much better to everyday hackers (via docs, error messages, whatever). When Rust was new this seemed like just a technical problem to be solved with software maturity. I guess at this point after several years of regularly returning to play with Rust and being frustrated every time, I've mostly given up.
Okay may be lol is not really HN style. But how is the above comment flame bait. It just calls the article calling for Orwellian measures which it does by any reasonable standard (thought police?).
..or whether they can even pull a full career out of it.

To be fair, practically all people in their 20's go through a pachinko machine of decisions leading God-knows-where.
It's interesting to me seeing the direct data-based reactions to the pause on the J&J vaccine. For example, Nate Silver of 538 wrote (https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1381925025964515330):

> 6 cases out of 7 million people. What a disaster. This is going to get people killed. And it's going to create more vaccine hesitancy. These people don't understand cost-benefit analysis. They keep making mistakes by orders of magnitude.

I am seeing this argument from people of all political views this morning, but I am most surprised to see it from the political left. Why isn't the same data-driven approach used when we're talking about policing, or gun violence, or traffic deaths? In all these cases, the frequency of negative outcomes (policing deaths of unarmed black people, homicides committed with guns, traffic fatalities per mile traveled) is very low and when weighed with the positive outcomes, it is clear that people are acting irrationally when they try to defund police, or ban firearms, or restrict driving. And yet, the data is never brought up so directly in those conversations by either everyday people or news media.

The J&J vaccine issue is frankly less alarming to me than this open hypocrisy or disconnect in our societal discourse.
What do you like about Snyk above what GitHub provides?
Risk of... dying? Being injured? Being hospitalized? Developing a life-threatening clot? Also it's missing a word "from" but I worked that out. Thanks for your contribution.
"China is net food and energy importer."

Chinas wealth is based on neither. So what? Many rich countries import energy. BTW, China is serious about fusion and thorium reactors.

" China has an aeging population, and it's already a rapid shift."
Most countries do and this can still Change.

"- China's infrastructure isn't as well built as other countries and it will start degrading, and maintenance is a pain."

I am sure that the huge and extensive bullet train network in the US won't show any sign of aging very soon. Just kidding.

"- Supply chains are moving elsewhere."
Unlikely, the Chinese type of clustering is hard to replicate. Lower things like textiles and assembly might move to Vietnam. Owned by Chinese companies.

"The US controls space, and will solidify it's grip in the next 3 years. "

Yes, sure. Good luck with that. Sure the Russian will also we happy about it. If I remember right, the next version of the S400 System can even shot satellites out of orbit, but I may be wrong.

"What do you do about automation, if it wipes out jobs for all the restive angry young men?"
Chinese will be leading in automation. Not sure about the angry young man. A Chinese person seems to be happier and more able to endure things in my experience. Strangely, I found many very sensitive to hunger.

US vs China would be an interesting war. The US has very to no experience in fighting such a war. What most Americans don't know (and actually phrased to me in this way by my US professoer): The second world war was a German-Russian war in Europe. The US industrial might helped Russia, but the US fighting was negligible. Russia lost every two days as many people as the US in a ten year war against Vietnam. The US has never fought an equal opponent. Just as a word of caution.
>child of a burrito and a kebab than a taco

Isn't that a gyro?
Initially the cdc data pointed to about 2/3rds would have died anyway in the same time period in the US, but that was a few months in. Now if you pull total deaths from the cdc, subtract deaths tagged as covid and fit a sinusoid with a 52 week period and a slope for population growth you get a pretty solid fit with the exception of the 2018 and 2015 flu, and last summer. But last summer the sinusoid is under the total daeths minus covid deaths. Integrating the area between I think we undereported covid deaths by about 50k over the summer. We are back down to predictded deaths now without counting covid deaths. So I think all half million deaths are in excess of expected value, plus another 50k.
But as I pointed out in my other comment, those returns are already taxed. If you think those returns are excessive, the solution is to raise the tax on them, not introduce an entirely different type of tax, with plenty of collateral damage.
Your lesson should also include preparing interviews just like you prepare an exam. It sucks but it's a standardized process to evaluate some capabilities that decrease the risk of losing $$$ for the company that hires you.

Probably not that low. This study [1] says about 80,000. (There were about 420,000 excess deaths in the US last year.) That number isn't perfect in that it ignores any death reductions from accidents, say, that didn't happen because people were staying home. It also doesn't account for any deaths resulting from untreated conditions.

> Do you think the US has such influence over _any_ country to command it to go to war with another country?

They definitely have enough influence to suggest doing so. I remember Victorya Nuland openly supporting Ukraine revolution by physically being there, so obviously they supported them financially. And when US pays someone dollars, they expect something in return. Ukraine officials promised to their people that Ukraine will join NATO, so that's another leverage.

> One would think so, yes; but on the other hand, hasn't Russia annoyed the Western world enough over the last 6-7 years, with Syria, Skripal, or Navalny, despite its obvious need to finish Nord Stream?

I don't fully trust Skripal and Navalny stories, so that's more of western propaganda trying to paint Russia's black from my PoV. Not sure about Syria, probably there were enough geopolitical reasons for that.
Great advice, thanks. I agree we all have to do our part in safeguarding our way of life, big or small.
The same computer and Internet connection that you used to post this message of "genuine interest" will also allow you to -- independently -- search for tons of actual US government reports and independent academic studies of US white supremacist terrorism, the arrests made, deaths and injuries caused, etc.

In fact, I'd bet you can find 100 of those papers before you can find a single peer-reviewed study demonstrating any macroeconomic impact of "somebody said something racist on the Internet and everybody yelled at them!"
Short suggestion: If performance isn't critical, sprinkle some .clone()s in there on your strings and the borrow-checker will get off your back

Long suggestion: Working with strings in Rust requires that you have a C++ mental model of what strings are and what properties (in the abstract sense of the word) they have. Rust will make sure you can't misuse them, and it will make them as ergonomic as they can be within that C++-like model, but it's a fundamentally different concept from what you have in languages like C# and Java, and if you're trying to look at things from that other perspective, you're going to keep running into walls over and over.

More broadly, when you're using Rust you need to be in the basic mindset of a C++ programmer. From there Rust will make things significantly easier in many ways, but if you don't start with the right mental model, you're going to have a bad time. Strings are probably the most striking case of this because the way they get treated in virtually all higher-level languages is so wildly different from the way they get treated at the low-level.
I believe their concern is more of long term effects and not short term. A vaccine isn't meant to cause blood clotting, unless we know the specific mechanism of how that's happening it could be much more dangerous.
recidivism rates are applicable to rehab centers which offer multi-week in-patient programs. they're all legally required to provide them, and most are pretty sad (50%+ is typical).

no one claims attending a meeting with a few random people and talking is a "recovery program" by any stretch of imagination. they're completely different things.
Microplastics are too tempting of a carbon source for bacteria. I would be surprised if polystyrene and polyethylene degradation genes don't start to run rampant in the global bacterial pangenome via horizontal transfer in the next 100 years
People are diverse enough that with a few millennia, probably no need to troll.

There's an archaeological site near here, vaguely described in most publications. If you can get your hands on some of the original field reporting, you learn that one of the finds was a burial site where the head of the deceased was replaced with that of a canine.

Not a known practice, apparently.
This started during the industrial revolution when factories started to need a large workforce and then it continued with offices that also require a large workforce.

When people could not really commute you had company towns so that people could live right next to work, and also be controlled by their employer.

I don't think people want to live in company housing, surrounded by company employees, they also tend to change jobs more often, with both spouses working (so likely 2 different employers).

"Auto-mobilism" is not going anywhere as long as this is the case and I don't see any indication that it is changing. Remote work can help reduce the need for commuting but it won't make it disappear.
Very natural phenomenon that is caused by Chinese deforestation and exploitation of the country.

>4. Don't know where you have been. Shanghai and Beijing is full of young and ambitious people from all over the world. They look for the future, not for the past. I was an immigrant in the US myself (also have an US passport now). The US was always closed for me. Zero opportunities. In China it is a brand new world. Opportunities, ambition, money. I consider it my home.

How much does CCP pay these days? Do you get sponsored tours to Chongqing ?
Or give it to causes that, in your own estimation, make the world a better place.

There are lots of problems out there that need money to be solved.
To draw a parallel with filesharing:

"Of course, the more onerous the path the get legal movies, the more appealing illegal downloads become, so there's a profit-maximizing point somewhere along that integral."

We've all witnessed the war-on-piracy that the powers-that-be have been pursuing a few decades ago, and we've all seen it fail spectacularly. Similar to the drugs story, by going after the Napster-type filesharing systems, they created a much more lucrative black market where criminals made millions by being the first to crack protection schemes.

What reduced the problem to a manageable level? Apple Music/Spotify/Netflix. By making it legal to do entertainment in the confines of their own home, the harm to society at large was much reduced. And even better, because everything is legal now, production companies have much better insights into their market, and can better produce content that their users actually want.
Most Fennoswedic families moved ~400 years ago from Sweden to Finland. According to that logic, Americans would actually be native Britons? Sounds wrong to me.
> I personally don't believe that an unskilled worker in the US deserves to be paid 10X...

A full-time worker deserves to be paid enough to live, period. Unskilled or not. They deserve a roof over their head, food on the table, and basic healthcare. Cost of living varies greatly based on locale, and comparing that number to the poverty wage in Bangladesh is what the invisible hand does, yes, but it's absolutely not what's fair or what's deserved.
I just made this website to show you how really, really small the risks are for the AstraZeneca vaccine which also has this ‘issue’.

It compares the risks of dying from a blood clot after the AZ vaccine (about 1 in a million) to the risks we happily take every single day.

If you're not willing to take 1 in a million chances, it's gonna be pretty hard for you to get out of bed today
I did several overnights on the Pampanito as a kid!

We snuck out to get golden boy pizza at an ungodly hour, don't tell the parents. Played Risk and drank swiss miss cocoa till dawn. Watched sunrise on the deck. Very good memories. :)
I honestly wouldn't have the money to pay someone at your level. At best I can pay a college kid $30 an hour to maybe work on the business 10 hours a week.

Which if you remember being in college, is a decent amount

I've literally just received a delivery of through-hole ATTiny85s and a programmer, so I can dead-bug an I2C interface onto an analogue sensor. I have no idea where I'd start looking for an ARM in anything like the same form factor.

There has to be another step here that we're missing - such as malware that buys apps for you or subscribes to apps without your knowledge, or uses the App Store to launder money.

I can't see a scam app being a top grosser without something like that.
Or maybe someone in a position to influence this decision was heavily invested in a different vaccine. It's perfectly reasonable to assume they're not idiots at all.
Tarmak is what finally allowed me to switch away from QWERTY. Prior to tarmak I couldn’t deal with the massive productivity loss that I would initially encounter with Dvorak and I would eventually switch back.

The fact that initially steps are the highest impact really helps too.

It took me a moment, when reading the page, to realize this was the target audience.

Probably easier for kids to avoid feelings of claustrophobia. I went for a brief tour of a submarine and in about half an hour I was very happy to stand up straight again.
That a bad idea because when you are on a foreign server then you'll be quite lost
Isn't this what the cxx project is aiming to do? https://github.com/dtolnay/cxx
You aren't unemployable, you just need to study LeetCode problems.
I wouldn't say that thinking about ownership is "low level details". You are (or should?) always having to think about this when building APIs. The difference is that in for example Python you don't have a way to encode that information and enforce it. I would say that the "feeling" of writing on a high-level language comes from a few ergonomic features:

- Match ergonomics, so that you have to think about borrowing less in patterns

- The compiler providing suggestions for those cases where you must specify them

- Type inference

- Iterators letting you write fairly functional code

Things like having to write &*foo[..] or .as_mut_ref() are indeed "warts" when you don't care about those details, but they happen uncommonly enough that it isn't perceived as an onerous cost.
PJON is more an abstraction over a bunch of different protocols.

CAN is for off board comms.

I2C should really never leave the board.

I've actually seen a blend though, where someone hooked a couple CAN transceivers to bridge an I2C bus off board (a simple LED board had to be 3 meters away from the micro controller). At the end of the day they should have just put a micro controller on the other end and ran CAN over it, as they still had a bunch of glitches anyway.
The adoption of critical theory as a base for policy directions ("woke politics") is not what caused infrastructure to crumble. Infrastructure crumbles because it costs money to maintain while it does not return profit in the short term when maintained. In the long run crumbling infrastructure leads to a loss of profit or opportunities for such but by then those who decided not to invest in maintenance are long gone from their positions.

However, the adoption of critical theory does play a significant role in bringing about the decline of western society since it leads only to deconstruction of existing structures without providing functional alternatives.

Not as far as I know. It wouldn't make sense for them to push for more manufacturers to make more efficient bulbs but then try to prevent them from being sold elsewhere. What would they gain from such an agreement?

And there's not really anything special about these bulbs. I mean they have more redundancy and run the leds at lower current, but there's nothing special you could claim ownership to. There's no new coating or led technology or anything, so even if such an agreement was made it doesn't seem like anything would prevent another manufacturer from making them.

From Clive's video description on youtube:

>> These lamps are currently only available in Dubai. The likelihood of them appearing elsewhere is limited by the fact that they are designed to last a long time, which isn't profitable for the manufacturers.

It's profitable for Philips to make them for Dubai because regulations mean there's no one selling a worse but cheaper version. If Philips sold the bulbs for $1 more in your local shop you'd buy the cheaper version because both say "last's forever", you can't tell the difference, and you've never even heard of tDubai bulbs ('you' being an average shopper).

If other countries created regulations around the efficiency level and how long the bulbs had to last then we'd likely end up with a similar bulb. We'd pay a little more per bulb, but save over the long term. As it is now there's more profit from multiple angles on making worse bulbs.
The author had failed at launching two different products over the past few years, so it isn't a gimme at all.
What sucks the most about I2C for me is the fact that the bus can get stuck if the master device resets during a transmission. In which case the slave device will keep the SDA line busy while waiting indefinitely for clock pulses. Yes, you can probably send dummy clock pulses to finish the frame and get SDA released, but that's just a pain to code properly.

SPI is so much more reliable with just two extra pins, I usually don't even consider I2C anymore.
