I get a flu shot to protect others and to protect myself. I was very clearly exposed to the H1N1 pandemic flu a few weeks after getting the vaccine, and, to the extent I got sick at all, I had minimal symptoms. I can’t know the extent to which my vaccine protected me or protected people around me, but, on expectation, it certainly provided a considerable amount of protection to me and others.

(For all that the H1N1 pandemic flu was minor compared to COVID, it still put a lot of people in the hospital. I’m quite glad I didn’t get a severe case.)

The point you're completely missing here is that there's no objective yardstick to measure "past" and "present" against.

Not quite the same thing.

The humanoids that populate the Culture belong to any number of entirely unrelated species that are capable of interbreeding through deliberate interventions (upgrades, really) that paper over the genetic, proteomic, biochemical, etc. differences.

None of those species are related to Earth's Homo Sapiens, or to any other species belonging to Earth's biosphere (though I think there might have been an allusion or two to panspermia insofar as origin-of-life goes).

So. When I say that Earth isn't part of the Culture, I mean to include anyone who has any Earth ancestors.

OTOH, the Culture has had observers, agents, etc. visit Earth (after being appropriately retrofitted to resemble Earth humans at least anatomically, and optionally biochemically and genetically) on occasion, to determine whether to continue with the policy of nonintervention. In the Culture books published so far, the policy holds.
The EEBDs are not primarily for the passengers. If there's a fire passengers should be evacuated. Unless the vessel is likely to sink or capsize imminently the safest place for the passengers is probably on deck. For serious fires the passengers will probably self-evacuate, humans are scared of fire. Correct operation of the EEBD requires training, the intent is that your fire response teams can use EEBDs to keep themselves safe while entering spaces without breathable air, particularly if using CO2 extinguishers (very common in machinery spaces on ships).

People will answer things like this:

* There is no free meal (even though food is abundant)

* Merit matters (while we know merit is a myth)

* If people don't work the world collapses (not all work is necessary and has value)

* Generally the idea stands that hierarchy matters, that the strong should dominate the weak, and that social darwinism is a worthy ideology. Since the end of the cold war, the world doesn't believe in equality. People still believe in alphas while its author retracted the paper.

There are a lot of stereotypes that humans integrate, which allows them to rationalize a flawed system
You’re quite right, the example given doesn’t have bad row estimates, and other cells are highlighted in red/orange/yellow for different reasons (proportion of time taken, in the case shown).

For an intro to this that goes through several examples, I highly recommend a conference talk[1] by Josh Berkus in 2015/16 that he gave a few times. It has aged pretty well and I’ve not yet seen the basics covered better.

My understanding is that rows in memory chips have thousands of bits in them. If you add 10-20 more to act as a refresh counter, then you can trigger extra refreshes if it gets high enough. Done right, that should give you immunity to rowhammer, while only costing a fraction of a percent in extra die space. And you won't be able to trick it like you can hash-table-based refresh counters.

This is a beautiful post. Thanks.
This is a great advice, but sales actually make sense for distribution partnerships such as gyms. To actually take on the point that you made around sales. I am an introvert who used to be nervous about people. There are definitely some people in this world who are naturally born salesmen and personally I hate these personalities :) It feels that they always hunt and they have an agenda.

Now where it gets interesting is that the other 99% of people who actually learn sales, some will realise that sales is rather about listening and seeing a fit in a potential customer. You wouldn't want to sell your product to unqualified customer (someone who won't need it and will churn anyways).

In terms of skills - you don't need to be pushy. After 8 years in sales I realized that at some point you will just develop a mental script and practice makes perfect. You will be nervous the first few times, but later realize that nobody will kill you for just a conversation. On the 20th call, you will realize its actually not that scary.
On the 100th call you will have a state of flow where you already know what works and how to "feel people".

On 1000th call, you will have a sense of empathy like 99% of people don't have. You will notice people have behavioural patterns and you will learn how to work with them as well as with people who are just negative from get go and how to cut them out early.

These soft skills are invaluable for relationships, dealing with colleagues and many more.

So the only advice I can give is: push through, get better, learn and continue doing so.

I am pretty much on the same route with coding now :)

> I can't believe what we're letting them get away with.

If you consider that billionaires only personally consume a sliver of their net worth, what are they actually getting away with?

For example, say a billionaire consumes $100K worth of food, $20K worth of gasoline and jet fuel, and $1m of clothing, entertainment, baubles, prostitution and medical services per year. What happens to the rest of her wealth?

It's tied up in investments:

$500m in shares of company X

$100m in shares of company Y

$100m in a mutual funds

$100m in real estate (houses and land for personal use)

$100m in a philanthropic fund

$ 98m in artwork

Yes most probably through trade. Check the provided video link on the ancient Pompeii, based on the archeological evidences they had trading activities with other Asian countries including India. It is already known that the Chams already settled in Vietnam during Pompeii time. Their ports popularity at the time probably similar to Singapore today and Singapore is currently the busiest port in the world. Another fun fact is that the Chams ancient capital city is called Simhapura or Lion City, and Singapore original name is Singapura. My gut feeling is that Champa was either playing the role of Singapore today or conquered Singapore, at the time of Pompeii.

My point is that for taxation or legislation you need exact numbers and the same number should be the result for two different people in the same situation. I agree that even huge margin errors could be perfectly fine (because some value + margin error still give you lower bound) but I think we're not even close to that.

Plus as much as I want it I just don't see how would you ever implement anything practical. Pure sophistication and obfuscation helps hide the wealth. Somebody rick can easily spend 10% of their wealth doing that (we're talking millions here) and tracing back these paths can turn out to be more expensive. Gov is at huge disadvantage here despite laws already helping it in a very questionable ways - like your need to prove where did you get some money from instead of gov proving that you got it illegally.
There certainly are aspects of academia that are overdue for improvement. However, for folks with a CS PhD degree, my guess is that moving out of academia has a high chance of you ending up contributing to surveillance capitalism.

2. Only a few pages still have some discussion, but then it seems to be not reflecting the scope of the subject [1].

Those are my own opinions as to why. Plenty of people are working on those systems, so obviously there are plenty of people that have different opinion.

They are too big, and well established projects.

I cant just plop down over a weekend and make some kind of meaningful contribution. Most of the low hanging fruit is already dealt with.
Those are great systems to work with, or if you want to build on top of. Not that great if you just want to hack on core system.

It's not that you can't because people definitively are. But expectations are bigger, scope is bigger, you need to keep multiple architectures in mind, people will use it on all kinds of hardware. You need to coordinate with dozens or more people.

Everything takes more time.

Let's define unikernels as running under a hypervisor.

I don't think this is a useful definition. Our unikernel Linux (UKL) can build a unikernel that runs direct on baremetal, and that's a fantastic feature and also quite different from embedded OSes.

unless you're running at massive scale

That's your opinion. We are intending to deliver unikernels to anyone who wants performance and/or real time guarantees. They don't need to be operating at scale.

> 2 of the 3 possible sums would lead to an even sum (odd+odd=even, even+even=even, odd+even=odd)

I think the conclusion is wrong, there are 4 cases:

odd+odd=even,
even+even=even,
odd+even=odd,
even+odd=odd
This isn't true of all unikernels. Ours lets you run regular programs like perf, gdb inside the unikernel. (Of course optionally, you can go "pure unikernel" if you want)

That's not surprising or particularly notable for a rapid antigen test, which is why they're not used as a full replacement for a PCR test in most countries.

The BD rapid test he used seems to be one which a paper [1] indicates has a lower positive percent agreement than a PCR test.

Rapid tests in general, compared directly to PCR, seem to do even worse with one paper [2] finding a symptomatic sensitivity of 72% and an asymptomatic sensitivity of 58%.

I have one serious one and one silly one.

Serious: I worked with a hot-tempered director from academia for a total of 3 months, at a remote lab for a large tech company. At this company, writing docs is more important than doing any work. This guy kept asking me to rewrite the doc and present it to the team over and over. Coworkers confided that they were confused as to the issue with the doc and didn't understand why he was acting this way. My direct manager tried to be all empathetic and work with me to improve the doc and said he didn't know what the director's problem was. Yet, each time I presented, I would get grilled and my manager would just sit there with a smirk on his face, not defending me. At our last meeting, the director tore up the report and said "I don't want to see another doc like this." I pretty much had a yelling session with my manager asking why he wouldn't back me up and he just sat there deadpan. The director walked in and I said "if you ever speak to me that way again, I quit." It happened again, and I quit on the spot. My two week resignation period was spent at home, with permission. I came in one final time to walk my clueless manager through all of the code I had written and he just said "Wow you really did a lot of great work here." I wanted to explode. My exit interview was cathartic. Two months later, the manager was fired.

Silly: I had been working at a startup and was in the process of leaving that startup (interviewing etc.) There was constant drama at this startup and the COO was a complete drama queen. The latest drama was that the COO was on a crusade to figure out who kept plugging the toilet and sent an email to everyone threatening termination. I went to wash my hands (not use the bathroom) where the sink was outside both bathrooms in public view. One of his lackeys told him that I had used the restroom last (I didn't). During the meeting where I learned this he started asking me about when I typically use the restroom and gave me a warning. I just looked at him and said "Are you fcking serious right now? You're meeting with me over a clogged toilet I had nothing to do with? I am so fcking sick of the drama at this company." I met with my direct manager, told him the situation and just said "I can't. I've learned a lot from you, but I'm about to receive an offer from another company, and I just can't anymore." I returned to the COO's office to resign and the COO asked me if I wanted to give him a hug. I just looked at him and said "Um, no, I am giving you my resignation. I know this is no notice, do what you need to do." I also missed stock options by a week. I learned that two weeks after I quit, the toilet plugged again, overflowed after hours and flooded the entire work area.

My career has been otherwise normal.
In that particular contrived hypothetical that's only ever existed in the mind of pro-abortion advocates: I apply triage.

The jar of embryos is a big pile of unknown, as preserved embryos have a high rate of non-viability, and that's before the conditions of storage are accounted for. And, and if the scenario requires me to pick and run, I don't have time to look for documentation. I save the baby, not because it's "more alive", but because there are no questions as to whether I'm actually saving someone I can help.

Same, I’m American in USA

I just tell people I travel alot and my friends English from all over the world rubbed off on me.

I would actually say that for a longer time I have consciously avoided regional slang, as American colloquial English is not usually any close to academic English and it is very easy not to notice. But Europeans have no clue what you’re saying if you are simultaneously slurring words, completely altering sentence structure, using idioms, and complete slang.

So maybe it just gravitates towards an enunciated and generic international form of English? Skip a syllable and there it is.

I think this is a good partnership. One of the goals of open source software foundations is to eliminate risks due to dependency on a small developer team. In this case, HIBP is a fantastic resource being maintained, and paid for, by one developer. That's not good for the maintainer, it's not good for the community, and it's risky to the community. If the sole developer wins a spot on the next flight to Mars or time travels to A.D. 802,701, the code becomes unmaintained and the site hosting payment expires. Software foundations governed by rotating teams and aren't dependant on a single individual. This is an example of something that's relatively low investment for an established software foundation - some legal fees and discounted cloud hosting from a sponsor - and benefits the whole community.
They differ very widely. It's instructive to look at unikraft which is probably the easiest to develop on (IMHO). eg: https://github.com/unikraft/app-helloworld-cpp

Our unikernel (UKL) lets you link your Linux program with the Linux kernel and produces a binary which run in a VM or on baremetal (essentially a custom vmlinuz). It's a bit laborious at the moment, one of many things to fix before release.
