It's true that you can't really run with the counterfactuals very easily, but it is entirely possible to have a high death rate and fast spread.

HIV is basically 100% deadly. It's not exactly easy to spread, since it requires super-close contact, but that kind of super-close contact is very common.

What is slow is its rate of killing you, so that you can be infectious for a long time while not having obvious symptoms.

As you say, changes to any of those comes with a complete change in the epidemiology. It's hard to extrapolate.

Maybe there is no such thing as clean code by following a set of rules. I know the author of the book never advocateshis book as a "bible" but it does give the reader such feeling.

There is only years, decades of deep experience into certain domains (e.g. game rendering engine programming, or, Customer Relationship backends), extra hours reading proved high quality code, countless times of reflection on existing code (that also means extra hours reviewing existing code) based on the reading and a strong will to improve them, not based on some set of rules, but based on common sense on programming and many trials of re-writing the code into another form.

I think ultimately it goes down to something similar to 10,000-hour rule: We need to put down a lot of time in X, and not only that, we also need to challenge ourselves for every step.
No it's not. Mailmeteor seems to be mail merge for gmail.

Obviously they might not be smarter, fitter and richer than people at the place they're arriving at, and that is one of the major reasons immigration is often restricted.

It really is fantastic... and for the non-Emacs folks like myself you can run it in Spacemacs w/ VIM bindings (aka evil mode).
Cherry-picking is amazing with magit. I use spacemacs so my magit has evil style keybindings.

I just open up a log view to the branch i'm cherry-picking from, move the cursor to the commit I want to pick, then if I don't remember what the key is I just press ? and it shows me all the commands, then I press A for cherry-picking, and it immediately populates it with the commit that my cursor is on in the log view. Easy-peasy.
Yes, I do appreciate the updates. But we're talking about repair here, so I'd like to discuss that. Repairs could be needed at any time during the lifetime of a phone. Its not just about being able to repair 10 year old phones.

A 50 cent component needs to be replaced on the main-board of an Apple product. Lets say I have found a qualified repair shop willing to do the repair at a price that I agree with. Why does Apple actively block the supply of parts?
This is a really interesting question. If I send a manuscript to a publisher, the publisher declines, but a clerk of that publisher attempts to republish the work under their own name, is that not a copyright violation? The wording in [1, and link to "fixed"] suggests to me that the work is covered by copyright because the author conveyed it to a publisher with intent to publish.

We use the motion detection to turn on lights and usually turn off manually. I've set up ours to remain on until a fair amount of inactivity. In two years it's only turned off once whilst we were watching a movie.
It's about balance. If you dive into real success projects you'll see hand in hand marketing and product improvement especially storytelling based on product development like in Tesla case.

The part of the laptop area is the "ultra portable" laptop and the key criteria there is indeed the "how much does it weigh". When optimizing for that, the dimensions of the device are influenced. One way to get a lighter device is to make a smaller one.

Apple went with making it smaller in one dimension and larger in others.

https://youtu.be/jDQmvAPYjms is the keynote where the Air was released.

So, Apple wanted a full size keyboard, larger display, and more performance. To get that set of targets, they needed to make the overall device thinner.
English subtitles are included. Found this history quite amazing.
I think the author's life + 70 years is a good default for anything not explicitly handled elsewhere, as by that point I and everyone involved will be dead (I suppose my grandkids will still be around at that point, but if 70 years of preparation for the publication of my list of Minecraft mods isn't enough, that's their problem).

We're not talking personal or private matters here, we're talking something that would have been published if a publisher had said yes at the time. There's obviously a remuneration aspect and the wishes of the author and heirs should be taken into account, but as some point those diminish.
As in, if you SSH into a remote machine, Fig can offer completions for that remote machine. Same thing if you are running an interactive terminal for a docker container.

Societies with high human capital respect the dead and won't seize upon the first opportunity to rob their graves (rationalizing as "learning" or whatever doesn't cut it). There's plenty of other material that was willfully published to learn from.

Well named functions are only half (or maybe a quarter) of the battle. Function documentation is paramount in complex codebases, since documentation should describe various parameters in detail and outline any known issues, side-effects, or general points about calling the function. It's also a good idea to document when a parameter is passed to another function/method.

Yeah, it's a lot of work, but working on recent projects have really taught me the value of good documentation. Naming a function send_records_to_database is fine, but it can't tell you how it determines which database to send the records to, or how it deals with failed records (if at all), or various alternative use cases for the function. All of that must come from documentation (or reading the source of that function).

Plus, I've found that forcing myself to write function documentation, and justify my decisions, has resulted in me putting more consideration into design. When you have to say, "this function reads <some value> name from <environmental variable>" then you have to spend some time considering if future users will find that to be a sound decision.
True, it is does not vanish. However, the stewardship is out of the hands of the labor that begot it. There’s a reason We have the military industrial complex, cushy public-sector union jobs, and DC/East Virginia as one of the wealthiest regions of the country. It isn’t because these people are sweating blood and tears trying to find good opportunities where they can carefully deploy the taxes taken out of the tip jar.

Federal Judge Says Christian College to Have Males Share Showers with Females
> The implementation of such a law is impossible as far as I can tell and opens up huge vulnerabilities to smaller companies.

Have you actually read the article from GDPR about "Data Portability"? (https://gdpr-info.eu/art-20-gdpr/)

It's easier than you think. Offer a endpoint that spits out a ZIP file with JSON/multimedia of all the data you have associated with the user. Now you're done, you don't have to do anything else.

If possible, you should provide a good format (see my other comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27278816) but you're not strictly required to.

The intent of the article is not to allow people to import Facebook posts into Twitter, the intent of the article is to force businesses to allow people to export their data in a machine-readable format. What that entails exactly is up to each company to decide, and court of law to determine if it was followed properly.
I read Clean Code in 2010 and trying out and applying some of the principles really helped to make my code more maintainable.
Now over 10 years later I have come to realize that you cannot set up too many rules on how to structure and write code. It is like forcing all authors to apply the same writing style or all artists to draw their paintings with the exact same technique.
With that analogy in mind, I think that one of the biggest contributors to messy code is having a lot of developers, all with different preferences, working in the same code base. Just imagine having 100 different writers trying to write a book, this is the challenge we are trying to address.
Congrats to the Fuschia/Zircon team! It's very exciting to see a freshly-architected OS appear on the scene, with a non-copyleft license, a big company behind it (so hardware vendors will actually write drivers for it), and direction set by one company (instead of 10+ as is the case with Linux/Android). Can't wait to play around with it :-)
And what of the wars?
If there is no coercion then what is the problem? Capitalism doesn't even need to be considered for this to be uncriticizable. They are not harming anybody other than some people's sense of moral superiority. If they choose to sell their sexuality that is their choice.
On the other way there is a power balance between sexes when it comes to access to sex. Lots of men would be sugar babies if it was possible. I can think of a lot worse ways to pay my rent.
This is why famously many artists will REFUSE to look at any unpublished works and why places like Disney will return scripts unread, etc.
Even better: "anchor tag for everything that takes a user to a url, button for everything else" (forms and other action/event initiators).
In the absence of capitalism there were more openly worse power imbalances such as slavery.

Serfs.

Selling of children.

Communism.

Give me the power imbalance that rewards me instead of forced labor any day.
Err... it is the Chinese government itself that admits their vaccine isn't as effective, and that a third dose may be required.

> health experts in China say that protection from the vaccines may not last after six months and that people who are at high risk of COVID-19 should get a third dose. Now, state-run media outlets suggest Beijing is on board with the suggestion and is preparing to offer the third doses.
Who says I want 'discoverability', after all we are talking about useless project born of a hobby no?

Not everyone wants to have to share everything that is useless with the world especially if it's only going to be you.

I also don't want people to have to bug me for feature requests as well on top of that.

There is a reason GitHub/Lab/Bitbucket has private repos for this purpose.

You can obviously choose to share it, but you shouldn't be whining if your 'useless' hobby repository suddenly becomes the focus of attention of developers requesting more features.
There have been a number of studies (e.g. [1], [2], [3]) published estimating how many years of life have been lost to COVID-19. The estimates vary between ~10-15 average years lost per COVID death.

Malaysia’s dominant ethic group is Malay, which is defined by the constitution as someone who “professes the religion of Islam, habitually speaks the Malay language, and conforms to Malay custom.” It is this group that the constitution favors. (Incidentally, it is illegal to convert out of Islam in Malaysia.)

The indigenous locals, Chinese, and Indians are all minorities.
> But then how does this explain that some people got covid twice?

DNA is really diverse and it will never be the case that _everyone_ responds identically to external stimuli. This is the problem with the "one size fits all" approach to drug and biologics development.
Thanks for this, very helpful points that i'll add to the log.

Definitely I agree the UI is the main functionality for a platform. But at this stage I'm trying not to build something beautiful for nobody. First set of users will get to have the ability to set that.

Interesting, can you expand on your workflow a bit more? I'm of the exact opposite opinion - I think Mac's window management is the absolute worst thing about using a Mac - so I'd love to know what I'm doing wrong.
macOS runs an older version of GPLv2 GNU Bash. The newer GPLv3 GNU Bash has much better autocomplete built-in and many useful features (like |& for unified stdout/stderr redirect). Install it like this:

Kubegres: PostgreSQL Operator for Kubernetes
Supabase is really such a dream. It’s obviously early days yet for them, but I love working with the little subset that I picked — it really goes a long way to making Postgres easy. I wonder how accessible it is to newcomers though - feels more useful for the “I’ve used postgres before and am doing a side project” crowd (eg me) versus the Firebase audience of “hello I want something called back end plz”
Thanks! Fig does a bunch of macOS specific hacks to find the cursor location, find link your tty session to a OS window id and determine your current edit buffer (the text you've typed).

We then map then look for a corresponding completion spec to generate suggestions!
:) The Chimp brain doesn't just sit around quietly gazing at the world with "open and neutral eyes". That's not in its nature.

Its nature is to meddle. And thats what changes the world.
That's too facile an answer. If you can't do it via "capitalism" you do it via corruption or repurpose other structures. Do you need more flour or milk for your family? Do you want your kids to get accepted at a university rather than trade school?
This is doing it the hard way if you just want to generate a sine wave, because WebAudio’s OscillatorNode [1] will do it for you, no WebAssembly required. It likely works in more browsers too.

You can also use setPeriodicWave() to have it iterate over any sampled waveform you like. There is enough in the JavaScript API to fool around with basic subtractive synthesis where you connect an oscillator to a filter.

I also recommend Syntorial [2] for understanding what subtractive synthesis is capable of. It won’t help you synthesize real instruments, but you learn what the various knobs on synthesizers do by trying to reproduce increasingly sophisticated synthesizer sounds.

Learning the basic math is useful too though.

nginx: 1-byte memory overwrite vulnerability in DNS resolver (CVE-2021-23017)
Kary Mullis on Fauci
I'm glad you've decided to let me arbitrate this matter. Here is my official misinformation heuristic, three questions to ask oneself before acting:

1) Is this misinformation likely to convince and harm a great number of people?

2) Could belief in this misinformation result in severe health or emotional damage, for a single person or more who believe it?

3) If yes to either, are you an expert on the issue, relative to the person or group making the claim?

If you're indeed an expert, try to save the person or people from their downfall.

If you're not an expert, read up on the issue before meddling. God forbid it's you who is wrong.

And, of course, if no significant harm is likely, ignore it.

Mocking anyone who might disagree with you is unlikely to help convince people.
I'm not sure you understood this change?

This Magit update is not renaming branches or telling you what branch name to use. Quite the opposite. It's a switch from assuming everyone uses only one of the many conventions out there, to having out-of-the-box support for all the major ones.
We should! Are you running into issues?

"He doesn't know anything, really, about anything". What a reasoned way to start off the discussion
A lot of countries in Western Europe haven't had a revolution since the early 19th century. Yes, many of them were briefly occupied by the Nazis, but after liberation the pre-war constitution was reinstated.

For instance, the Dutch still claim that their Constitution dates from 1815 (though it has been substantially rewritten several times, most recently in 1983).

The reason why courts in the Anglosphere rely so much on precedent and case law while those in Continental Europe and its former colonies don't isn't a lack of revolutions (except insofar as Napoleon would have replaced common law with the Code Napoleon had he made it across the Channel). It's that legal codes developed differently in England and in the rest of Europe in the medieval period.
We're hoping to get onto Linux and Windows soon! We opted to focus on a fast, macOS only version first. However, we built autocomplete in web technologies (html/css/js). This means autocomplete will be able to go cross platform, along with other apps we hope to build in the future!
Ah yes, I forgot the barrel shifter. Shift anything in no extra cycles :-)
In Germany we have the biggest restrictions of fundamental rights since the existence of the federal republic of Germany.

We are all on indefinite house arrest. Millions of people are not allowed to work.

And the constitutional court does not even want to hear cases objecting to this. They will make a decision in 1 or 2 years when it has become irrelevant.

So it seems we don't have any fundamental rights at all. So spare me the outrage about Hungary.
Good points.

> She was the subject of intense FBI scrutiny for her “leftist” writing and blacklisted by the “House Un-American Committee” so she fled to Mexico. She also dared to marry an Asian man as a white woman which was not just frowned upon at the time but illegal.

That's awful. :(
As soon as you export your project, Inkscape retains the path to the exported file so that you could overwrite that file when exporting whenever you reopen that project rather than going once again through the whole process of pointing the program to the right folder and submitting output file name.

How is any of this a shocker?
Why are you contrasting slavery with capitalism when it was, and still is part of capitalism?
Windows is also in the works! The core autocomplete logic is easy to port over - the tricking thing is building out all of the OS level integrations!

If you know any win32 devs, let me know :)
>These two fall under requirements gathering. It's so often forgotten that software has a specific purpose, a specific set of things it needs to do, and that it should be crafted with those in mind.

I wish more developers would actually gather requirements and check if the proposed solution actually solves whatever they are trying to do.

I think part of the problem is that often we don't use what we work on, so we focus too much in the technical details, but we forget what the user actually needs and what workflow would be better.

In my previous job, clients were always asking for changes or new features (they paid dev hours for it) and would come with a solution. But I always asked what was the actual problem, and many times, there was a solution that would solve the problem in a better way
I has a similar experience, and can also say it had a negative affect on me. Hearing that life isn't fair is very different than actually experiencing it. The hard part for me I think is, as a man, it has been hard to find sympathy or empathy. Which realistically I understand, that in A lot of cases men have the upper hand, but it is an unpleasant feeling when you have been beaten by someone demonstrably under qualified in comparison, and each time they fit a specific demographic inverse to your own.
Nice website, but I wouldn't switch to this from Fish/Zsh on account of:

1. Cannot identify any killer features above what I already have with forever free tools with much larger support communities.

2. Less trust in you as a YC startup. What if you fail? What if you sell out?

3. Requirement of email.

4. Telemetry and privacy concerns raised by others.

5. Not available for Linux, and I get the feeling that Linux would forever be an afterthought since you released for Mac first (presumably, this was driven by financial reasons).
