> What’s driving this reassessment is a baffling observation about Covid-19: Many patients have blood oxygen levels so low they should be dead. But they’re not gasping for air, their hearts aren’t racing, and their brains show no signs of blinking off from lack of oxygen.

> [..]

> An oxygen saturation rate below 93% (normal is 95% to 100%) has long been taken as a sign of potential hypoxia and impending organ damage. Before Covid-19, when the oxygen level dropped below this threshold, physicians supported their patients’ breathing with noninvasive devices such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP, the sleep apnea device) and bilevel positive airway pressure ventilators (BiPAP). Both work via a tube into a face mask.

> [..]

> But because in some patients with Covid-19, blood-oxygen levels fall to hardly-ever-seen levels, into the 70s and even lower, physicians are intubating them sooner. “Data from China suggested that early intubation would keep Covid-19 patients’ heart, liver, and kidneys from failing due to hypoxia,” said a veteran emergency medicine physician. “This has been the whole thing driving decisions about breathing support: Knock them out and put them on a ventilator.”

> [..]

> To be “more nuanced about who we intubate,” as she suggests, starts with questioning the significance of oxygen saturation levels. Those levels often “look beyond awful,” said Scott Weingart, a critical care physician in New York and host of the “EMCrit” podcast. But many can speak in full sentences, don’t report shortness of breath, and have no signs of the heart or other organ abnormalities that hypoxia can cause.

> [..]

> One reason Covid-19 patients can have near-hypoxic levels of blood oxygen without the usual gasping and other signs of impairment is that their blood levels of carbon dioxide, which diffuses into air in the lungs and is then exhaled, remain low. That suggests the lungs are still accomplishing the critical job of removing carbon dioxide even if they’re struggling to absorb oxygen. That, too, is reminiscent of altitude sickness more than pneumonia.
I took a spacecraft mission design class in college. Every time I tried to search for information, the first 6 google results were from KSP before I got to something based on a real spacecraft.

Thanks for sharing that article. Reading that awhile back contributed to my interest in “non-destructive testing” on animals, or rather, learning through observation and safer, more-ethical interaction. Learning dolphin languages rather than imposing ours feels better, and if we go into it thinking beyond our own lifetimes we might reduce ego and ecological disruption, and be more patient. Too often we investigate on our terms, in our controlled settings, rather than going to their natural environment. We do this to ourselves, to, with IQ tests and other standardized tests that value X over Y, when Y might be something my culture reasonably valued as intelligent.
> If you consider Mighty to be a cheap supercomputer, not an expensive browser, it makes sense to pay $30/month for that

For sure, but at the moment it definitely is not that, and it's going to take a long long time before we get there. People have wanted thin clients for decades!

If I wanted to burn a hole in my wallet, I'd pay for Mighty, sure. The average user won't see a big benefit to this for a long time though.

The price point is too high for cheap users and the feature set is too small for power users, IMO.
Nobody was saying that.

When Mozilla was trying to get their OS for mobile phones, I think they stepped in too early. Right now it's probably a better time for an alternative.
Yes, I agree with that. But it also takes a lot of software work. Getting decent performance on a GPU for an existing scientific application requires something closer to a full rewrite than the usual porting effort to a novel CPU architecture. That is one of the reasons that people are writing new scientific applications to target GPUs from the beginning rather than just adapting mature older programs to GPUs. (Though there is some of both approaches.)
Randomness is not the same as free-from-physics. The former is required for quantum physics, the latter is required for free will.

These are things you can easily google. The composition of the PCE, CPI, and other metrics is public information and publicly documented.

Both CPI and PCE are both up slightly in the past year. Both are measures of inflation and clearly indicate slightly higher prices.

To me this was all "boy who cried wolf" stuff. I certainly remember media fear porn about SARS, about the expected severity of the next upcoming flu season, etc. It never amounted to anything significant in reality.
Their revenue goes up as their search degrades in quality.
Looks like a ripe opportunity for someone to take on the long tail search market. Duckduckgo seems poised to do this. Or perhaps some kids in a garage?
I guess it's not black magic apple is doing right here. From my experience with big companies, Intel just got buried in its processes, approvals, middle-management etc.pp.; they still got the talent, and in the past years there wasn't any serious competitor to them.

The dual wake-up call from AMD and from Apple (ARM), combined with the money Intel has in its pocket will have a serious influence on the cpu market. Unsure if they'll come out ahead, but it will get interesting and probably cheaper, not only for consumers.
Not really, because the variable length instructions have consequences - mostly good ones because they fit in memory better.

Also, the complex memory operands can be executed directly because you can add more ALUs inside the load/store unit. ARM also has more types of memory operands than a traditional RISC (which was just whatever MIPS did.)
Great idea! This looks really handy. I just tried installing it but when I try to click "add command" or "see command" it just redirects to the home page.
My point is not what has or hasn't happened to you. My point is that, if someone tells you your marriage is political, they are wrong. They don't know what politics is and the law is on your side. I don't see what else you can really ask for (besides approval).
If you've ever hiked up and down mountains doing trail fixing work, carrying 10-15 pounds of saw, plus tools and files and a couple gallons of fuel and a jug of bar and chain oil, gets really old really fast. And if you've got a chainsaw, you really ought to be wearing kevlar chaps and boots, and a helmet with hearing and eye protection, and now you're lugging an entire pack-frame of stuff.

Not really worth it unless you're doing some real felling.
Out of interest, why didn't you just bridge the two interfaces? Did you want everything on a separate subnet? (maybe I missed that but but you mentioned before how everything used to be directly plugged in anyway)
I'm glad to see that you can link to the execution of a particular cell. Just to clarify, if the cell had the execution for the Age of a particular person, I don't know if the link to the cell is of the age of that person as of the particular day and time when it was executed, or if is stored in an unevaluated form, the execution would yield an age dependent upon the calculation and using "Now" as the value that is compared to the Date of Birth to find out what the age may be. (IE: is the "NOW" evaluated lazily to the date+time of execution, and thus the age will change as time passes) OR (is the "NOW" evaluated eagerly to the date+time of when the execution first occurs, and the value of the age of the person as of that date+time is stored unchanging as the value of the AGE cell ?
The change of mass of the spacecraft due to the use of fuel should not be discounted.
> their search degrades in quality

Are you 100% confident that this is the case? I personally have a completely different experience (their search results have gotten much better than they used to).
Fair point. I'm not really thinking of it as little squares, I'm more just thinking in terms of integer coordinates in a 2-d Cartesian space. But I do think I'm inherently abstracting the "screen" as a grid of square pixels because it's a serviceable abstraction that is substantially simpler than "here is the whole signal processing pipeline that sits between my <image> tag and some phone user's eyes."

I suppose you're right that what I'm describing is just the lack of conscious mental model for what the pixel represents, versus when I'm writing a shader, where I'm actively thinking through the mental model of a pixel.
#3 especially, most people don't really understand science and think statements are absolute so the first time they heard "no masks necessary with what we know currently" became "no masks" and "well we've discovered that masks will help" and people heard "we lied to you before, now you need masks because we're trying to control you and take away all your freedoms" at least that's what happened with the Trump crowd.
But $30-50 feels really high.

Pricing is a good example of something that most people are intuitively wrong about. What you think people will pay and what people actually will pay are rarely congruent, and most of the time people guess far too low. Literally every bit of advice and writing about pricing I've ever read boils down to "Charge more than what feels right; you'll be surprised at how high you can go before you lose customers."
The post isn't mentioning DHCPv6-PD[*] (prefix delegation.) I feel like murphy's law is kicking into effect right now and the ISP-provided router actually supports PD to give downstream routers their own /64.

(Or maybe not. Who knows. I feel like the post would've mentioned PD if they tried it.)

Also:

Anything on a broadcast/multinode segment that isn't /64 is heresy ;)

JavaScript is allowed on iOS and Android already. So if Goole or Apple do not allow you to run some scripting language you want then the reason is not security(the sandbox and permissions should be enough and if is not enough then it means the sand boxing is a lie).
> You can certainly use new without exceptions, see https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/memory/new/nothrow or https://stackoverflow.com/a/15292148

You can use new without exceptions, but you can't detect OOM then, if I'm not mistaken.

> I think RAII is more about destructors (which must never throw exceptions). You can certainly write RAII style without throwing constructors. Generally, exceptions depend on RAII, but not the other way round.

The whole idea of RAiI is that you Acquire a Resource in the constructor (during Initialization), so that the destructor can guarantee it gets de-allocated.

If you construct your object and then acquire a resource in it later, from a function that can return an error without throwing, then you introduce complexity in the destructor and may risk errors more.

But that wasn't people waking past each other in the street, that was people working with each other in poorly ventilated spaces.

Public health officials during the early stages fully expected all the other recommendations they were making to be taken up: proper lockdowns, vigorous test and trace with good quality supported isolation.

If you're looking at "late lockdown with poor test and trace" then yes, you're right, not pushing masks doesn't make much sense. But it's odd to focus on the mask advice and not the late lockdowns.

Well, the world was changing and new opportunities arose. I think it's different now compared to then.

In 1968 there weren't that many computing devices around. When video games and home computing came around, there were massive opportunities and the entrenched players missed some of them.

Same with mobile phones, same with the internet, same with smartphones.
To some degree there's always data loss risk... A backhoe could cut a line, you could lose power to a PSU, rack, data center, a meteor could destroy the willamette valley, etc. What you want your system to provide you with is the framework to understand the risks and what the recovery looks like and when recovery is a lost cause.

Those who followed first sentence instruction did correctly one question. And ignored all the others in test that was supposed to be graded on completeness.

He also claimed the goal was to gauge their knowledge. Again, that was lie. And those who scribbled were literally trying to fulfill stated goal of test.

In overwhelming majority of situations, of you sabotage goal of event due to following likely faulty mutually conflicting instructions, you will be blamed for it.

I'm sure the cost is worth it to a specific segment of power users of, say, Figma. And maybe cloud gaming? But I'm curious if there's really a larger market for this.

It's assumed that little ones are the most efficient mass to energy converters, via Hawking radiation.
> Instead of two masses providing a continuously varying force in both direction and magnitude, you have one mass providing a continuously varying force plus a static offset.

Ah, so the force vector is constant/infrequently updated, not the position of the second body. My apologies for the misunderstanding.

I'm honestly a bit curious what an that would look like. For example, what would an orbit around the Earth-Moon L1 look like? What would an Earth -> Moon low-energy transfer look like?

I feel like depending on the system you might need to update the "fixed" force vector relatively frequently to get anywhere close to approximating n-body results, which basically sounds like regular integration.

I suppose at some point the question becomes how much fidelity are you willing to sacrifice in the name of decreasing CPU usage.

> I wasn't suggesting swapping between the methods.

My mistake again. Sorry about that.

> If you're in the middle of nowhere, then while the Keplerian portion of the model will be a smaller factor, it won't harm anything.

Wouldn't that arguably be where the most significant errors would be, as that's where the relatively unphysical constant force vector would have the most significant influence?
The app looks great! I appreciate the native Mac design, and the tab picker at the top is well done.

The intro video was helpful to see the app in action, but it was hard for me to understand the actual process of how I would "create a palette from a single color". It might be helpful to have more of a tutorial video with voice over that walks through starting with a color, and getting to a full palette.

The tagline of creating a palette from a single color is very compelling to me (as a developer with a modicum of design talent), but I was confused/overwhelmed by all the options and it was hard for me to piece together what was happening in the preview video.
Well, the other wrinkle here is that the "singularity" is a mathematical approximation. There's no such thing as hitting it -- from the outside, you just move asymptotically slower as you approach it.

> The median age of riders is ~50 while the average age of fatalities is 42. People over 50 make up significantly less than half of fatalities.

I'm not sure if you were trying to imply there was some connection between those sentences? You could easily have more than 50% of fatalities over 50, and still get an average of 42 (for example, deaths clustered mostly in either twenties or fifties).
That's officially above my pay grade. :-)

This is wrong in a lot of ways. Here are the top four:

1: If you don't want entitled folks with big egos, create a hiring funnel that roots out entitled folks with big egos. Compensation has very little to do with it.

2: H1B folks often work very hard, but that's not always because they're just incredibly humble. H1B visa holders often don't have as much career choice as US citizens or green card holders, and their visa status is tied to their employer's sponsorship. They can't easily hop to a different job if the workload starts to crush them. Employers know that, and adjust workloads accordingly. Call it what it is: coercion.

3: Squeezing work out of underpaid engineers is a great way of accomplishing a subset of tasks (like staging and applying software updates to cloud VMs each week), but it's a terrible way of accomplishing other tasks (like designing and implementing an automated system to replace those manual updates). People who are underpaid and swamped with work will often go into "survival mode" and just ask for a very detailed spec and implement the spec by rote. That style of work leaves little room for ideation, autonomy, and creative thinking, which is essential for some tasks.

4: It's plain shitty to knowingly underpay engineers and think that gives you the right to squeeze more work out of them.
