Why is that? Does Cambridge Analytica-type stuff not happen with Google?

I feel the same way as you but not because I think one is less evil. Rather, it's because Google brings me much more value in its search engine and productivity suite.

the problem with this approach is you need to have knowledge about the circuit to make it happen, not only that, but you also need people, who can reconstruct the circuit digitally

this approach is not scalable (that's why the high cost)

the ML approach doesn't require any knowledge about the system (black-box) to produce the result
At no point did I say or suggest people not showing symptoms are incapable of infecting someone with cv19. I'm not sure where you've come to the conclusion this conversation was ever about asymptomatic spread. PCR tests have nothing to do with symptoms.

However, I am very familiar with the study you've linked. If you can even call it a study - it's more like a fantasy model based on the data of other studies the researchers appear to not even have read! They cite numbers from multiple papers that can't be found in those papers anywhere. There might not be a more embarrassing study I've read than this one.

There first citation to Lee et. al. claims the paper found 100% infectiousness of asymptomatic individuals, yes 100%.
here's a quote from the actual paper

> Although the high viral load we observed in asymptomatic patients raises a distinct possibility of a risk for transmission, our study was not designed to determine this

(you'll note at nowhere in the paper is there anything resembling 100% spread in asymptomatic compared to symptomatic...this number is purely fabricated from thin air)

another citation from that paper is a citation to char et. al. that says the paper claims 40-140% infectiousness for asymptomatic individuals...again let's read the actual paper they cite

here's a quote from the paper

> In the household setting, symptomatic case-patients had 2.7 times the risk of transmitting SARS-CoV-2 to their close contacts, compared with asymptomatic and presymptomatic case-patients

so the above paper deals with household settings and finds roughly 1/3 in a household setting...this paper very generously makes up numbers again to cite to this paper...embarrassing.

the cite mc evoy et. al. as having a finding of 40-70% which they got right! horray!

so 2/3 papers they use to determine their asymptomatic infectious number for their modeling are just garbage citations that don't resemble the findings of the source paper at all

this paper is worse than useless.

again, their model sets the infectiousness rate of asymptomatic individuals based on 3 citations - 2 of which are fabricated...garbage...utter garbage.

The Price Is Right: Modeling Economic Growth in a Zero-Emission Society
Do you find no place for ideology? Perestroika and the collapse of Soviet pieties as hypocrisies - these are mere effects of economic exhaustion, and America will experience precisely the same? What about the inefficiency of centrally planned economies? Could that be why the Soviets went “broke”? In what way do you predict the United States will go “broke” and what do you imagine of its collapse? A geopolitical collapse? Do you imagine Texas will become Belarus?

I believe you analysis is simple to the point of ineffectiveness - with respect.
Yeah, arstechnica.com is blatantly lying with the "hilarious and intense". This is garbage.
My position is that both sides have a burden of proof. It is incorrect to place that burden on only one side. There is no consensus on the validity of the claims of crypto proponents. I don't see either side meeting a burden of proof.
> IMO code quality of projects using REST-like HTTP APIs is usually lower than the corresponding projects using GraphQL APIs

> How many of HTTP APIs have a corresponding OpenAPI spec? And if they have, is it actually kept in sync with the code

Umm what? Is this specific to NodeJS or something? Cause Django and DRF allow one to very easily and very quickly creating high quality REST APIs that are self-documenting and trivial to maintain. Pretty sure rails and go have similar packages and methods to allow for making excellent REST APIs. In fact I've found it a massive pain and a huge performance cost to add GraphQL to such projects. It's far slower than the REST calls

Yes, though I think equally, and maybe the more effective aspect of the prohibition against chemical warfare was the general recognition that going down that pathway would be much more awful for everyone than sticking to conventional methods. This is partly why Germany pretty much avoided using them in warfare during WWII: Once the genie was out of the bottle they would lose any advantage obtained in their initial use. (I don't know if it's apocryphal, but apparently Hitler also disliked them from his own experience in WWI)
That still confusing and seems like something only a machine would produce.

What's my gross misrepresentation ? I said making 80k is not noteworthy at all (we are discussing CEO/exec compensation here not casheer salaries), you just agreed with me.

OP suggested that 100k$/year not being noteworthy is a uniquely SV/US thing - it is not. Any place worth living in Europe will take that much to live comfortably (note. 100k USD = 80k EUR)
My company modeled traffic before I sold it.

Roundabouts (or 'rotaries', depending on where you live) and yield signs could do a whole lot to reduce travel times and increase efficiency by a surprisingly large amount.

The problems are numerous, but mostly the urban areas weren't designed for such, the costs to switch would be large, and the American driver can take up to six years to adjust to a new traffic pattern.
So to clarify: Belarus forced a plane to land, the French try to respect the autonomy of both, now they're banning flights?

Your quote proves my point that Keynesians are the opposite of “statists” when he talks about “technique, taste, population and institutions” driving investment decisions. That’s what I want to see in my economy. Do you disagree with that?

Not sure you’re reading the rest as intended either.

This is not a prescription for the government to drive down interest rates to zero so that no investor makes a profit, ever. It just means that when sufficient liquidity, the marginal return on capital should be zero, like any commodity. What’s wrong with that?

> survived unimaginable changes and upheavals, such as the mass extinction that killed the dinosaurs and marine reptiles like plesiosaurs that it swam alongside.

It's generally my understanding that extant species have all continued evolving and while a creature may have strong morphological resemblance to its ancestor it is not the same species. Therefore, to say this creature "survived" the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event would be to say all extant species survived it. Am I misunderstanding this?
There's a reason everybody wants you to install their app instead of just using their website, there's much more opportunity of tracking.
Yeah I got that you think they're "overly complex" but they literally have nothing to do with each other.

REST is simple compared to GraphQL if you have no standards at all and just slap everything with ad-hoc CRUD resources at will. That's what you do, don't you?

Ever tried to implement OData or OpenApi or any kind of structured API covering HATEOAS at all? Do you actually define your own content types, with MIME and so on? My guess is no. You're not doing REST. You're doing JSON CRUD RPC.

REST is a quagmire of competing half-completed standards trying to do what GraphQL does in one step and with least amount of "maybe this maybe that" situations.
I suspect people know what they're getting out of that $4 cup of coffee. With a $1 app, it might end up being a waste of money.

Does the Apple Store have refunds? If a user could refund an app within 48 hours of purchase (no questions asked), might that increase sales? (An abrupt change in policy might negatively impact premium "one time use" apps though...)
It's difficult to make regulation for a specific line that actually does disallow tracking without leaving loopholes and does not put weird restrictions on everyone else.

However, governments (at least some) are trying; GDPR is a step in that direction, but it has ovious associated difficulties have been discussed here in HN for years; California is moving in with similar laws, so there is a trend, but it will take years for it to get anywhere. I'd guess that EU will make "GDPR v2" (however that will be called) with severe restrictions on tracking by 2025 or so.
We use this where I work and love it. It has the added benefit of letting you package preferred vscode extensions with the devcontainer as well.

Well, GDPR went large steps in making it somewhat illegal, while users may still "consent" to being tracked ... which lead to big cookie banners nobody understands. Steps are being done, but lobbies are strong in their fight against.

While this is great for people with a fundamental understanding of containers and your prod environment this will usually lead to some issues with developers that don't need to, or want to, have context in these areas.

In the past, to make a very similar workflow possible, I've built tools that automatically watch your source files and rebuild & restart only what is needed [0]. This was built for bazel + docker-compose but there isn't a reason one couldn't watch the "build:" contexts for what files are important.

At a previous company one of our engineers was a huge fan of this volume mount approach and every single time something broke (which was very frequent due to some prod/dev env magic we had) I had to assist quite a few more junior devs figure out what was wrong with their machine. For those with scripting languages, was it their system's newline endings? For compiled languages, was their system SDK different then what was in the container? For prod bugs, did they forget to rebuild & test the container before opening their PR (we had no automated integration testing)?

In my opinion, if you can make your build system in charge of building/packaging things you'll have a much happier time.

The metadata for some of my filew is total junk. If I used another tool to strip that bad metadata would it then use the datestamps in the filename? I think this was defeating the de-duplication also. In an ideal world I'd be able to configure everything from a particular source folder to use filename datestamps.

> There is some question on whether the one-child policy was even needed.

> The ghastly human rights violations that led from the policy were completely unnecessary.

No, this was entirely intentional. That was the whole point.

This is "the big lie theory" taken to its extreme. It was done to keep people, and party cadres preoccupied. If you were to speak to an adult Chinese at around late eighties, the 1 child policy would've been the number 1 thing on people's tongues, as if there were no other problems.

It was an entirely artificial crisis made to distract people from the total economic ruin, and destitution as a result of cultural revolution.

I'm reading the progression of this thread, and can't believe my eyes. You HNers, supposedly intellectual elites, got completely hooked by the same cheap diversion.

The point is not whether it was a legit, or not policy. The point is the entire conversation being completely pointless.

The real rationale was to not to let people talk about something having a point — the real problems in a starving, falling apart nation in a deepest crisis, which China was at the time.
> No. But, it does solve a very real problem, and all of this "waves hands" is part of the process of discovering where it's most appropriate.

Putin is betting Air France will put pressure on the French gov which will pressure EU.

Sadly, he's probably right. EU has a habit of "forgetting" about human rights when it gets in the way of profit.

So to clarify: Did you read the article?

> The French airline, part of the broader Air France-KLM group, was forced to cancel two Paris-Moscow flights last week after receiving no Russian clearance for flight plans skirting the territory.

> Obstacles to rerouted Air France flights appeared to have been resolved late last week, allowing Air France to carry out two weekend Paris-Moscow services.

Sounds like Russian Authorities just took an extra beat (maliciously, or incompetently), or maybe the initial requested plan came too close to some military facility that the Russians had an alteration request over.

Either way, the wire services immediately smelled news even though by the time it was ready to publish, the issue was already resolved... so what's the news here?

Nested objects are fine, making a custom endpoint to provide what the client just needs is not what you will find in real REST APIs in the real world. So a lot of n+1 type of requests are made and much of the data is discarded.

I wonder why this is even controversial now. APIs have been like that for about 15 years and GraphQL was created to address that and it does it very, very well.

Yes, Russia, like any other state, could intercept airplanes too. But so far, they have not. International air travel means, that you have to fly across many countries, if you want to fly in a somewhat straight line. There are a few exceptions, where flights are not permitted to cross a countries airspace, but intercepting approved flights is pretty much unheard of. That is why the actions from Lukashenko created so much outrage. It is one of the fundamental agreements of international flights that got violated. If Russia would start intercepting airplanes, they would be internationally isolated quite quickly.

> while users may still "consent" to being tracked

That's the problem, in my opinion. Users should not be able to consent to third party tracking because if they can, companies will use any dark pattern at their disposal to make them consent. Third party tracking in general should be banned.
I thought it was obvious my comment was tongue-in-cheek :-)
