Maybe it's time for the US theater industry to reload the whole Saturday film-adventure thing ... revive THE FUN without the bleed-em-dry ethos. Charge kids $1.00 ... popcorn $1.00 ... dig into that loveable, cornball era sitting in the vaults. Maybe some old anime.

And ... no guns allowed.

AM I crazy? Well if they put an adult-only section in the back (they have to stay until all the kids are gone) I'll try it. Sure miss that big screen.
> Rabies is a lot more lethal

which virus are you talking about?
There are different insulins. It might be that the expensive ones are still under patent (and genuinely work better than the old ones for many patients).

Also, it might be that some or all of the insulins are just naturally costly to manufacture, so that when competition is not prevented by patents, the price stays high. (This would be the case for example if the insulin must be extracted from pigs and if each pig yields only a few doses of insulin.) That doesn't contradict the fact that many drugs still under patent sell for 100s of times their cost of manufacture, then when the patent expires the sell price drops to close to the cost of manufacture.
Thanks for looking. It is entirely possible that my middle-aged memory on books read 25 years ago is...not entirely reliable. :-)

I'm surprised there is more noise about her story than about the content of the leak. "Is it fair to prosecute her? Was she wrong? Should there be laws to make this information public to the people?" Shouldn't the question be: What about the content of the leak?

Same thing with Snowden. The question turns from how is the government spying on you, to is it fair to prosecute him? Is he a hero? Should he be pardoned? What about "is the government still spying? Did we shut down the program?"

I think this is a perfect example of information control.

If that’s the case, the mandate is equally unnecessary.
I usually read "People don't want to work!" statements as a sentence fragment. It's the first half of a whole statement. The second half of the statement is a variation on: "for the shitty wages or conditions I'm offering and will rescind at a moment's notice for any made up reason I can imagine".

The idea I get from the Cato echoing types is if you have a job you should beg and scrape and genuflect for your betters to thank them for their grace in employing you.

I think this meme accelerated after the 2008 financial crisis. Companies contracted but demanded more work from their remaining employees. Feeling fortunate to be employed they increased individual output to cover for the reduced head count. Companies screwed over employees then shrugged their shoulders with the "it's the economy" refrain.
Ordinarily, yeah. Dunno whether bats do the same thing other mammals (including humans) do when they're symptomatic with rabies, though. Might get paranoid and aggressive like the rest of us. Still, agreed that being bitten in one's sleep doesn't seem super likely. Regardless, I'd bet the knowledge that we (effectively) cannot cure rabies once it's symptomatic and that it's (more or less) a slow, horrifying death sentence isn't as widespread as one might hope. I'd expect there's a greater risk of someone being bitten and not knowing they absolutely need to go get treated ASAP, than of someone getting bitten and not realizing it.
Use the concept of paradoxes in Taoism as a metaphor for nondualism:

> The paradox is that by talking about the Tao, and by attempting to define the Tao, we ensure that the reader does not actually grasp the concept. At its heart, the Tao is nonverbal in its essence, beyond the confines of language. The Tao is an experience rather than definition.

Each tradition has their own version. For the west, it's the coincidentia oppositorum of Nicholas of Cusa. This goes beyond definitions because language can't describe it. This is not a failing, this is the essence of its impossibility.
There are so many countries, hard to tease out which countries are still allowed. Their alphabetized lists grouped in odd categories are not very user friendly. From what I gather these are the allowed countries:

- Canada and Mexico

- Chile, Argentina, Uruguay

- All of western Europe, most of Eastern Europe except Ukraine (and Turkey if that's EE)

- Israel

- Japan, South Korea, Singapore

- Australia, New Zealand, Fiji

The FTDI debacle may be old news, but lots of companies are probably faced with similar risks now, having been forced to turn to unfamiliar Asian brokers and other unofficial sources for parts that used to be commonly available but now have lead times of a year or more.

That includes me. :( Do I recommend that the company order thousands of STM32 MCUs from a place in Shenzhen that they've never heard of, and that our EMS facility won't have anything to do with? Assuming the parts even show up, will they be counterfeits? Recycled? Handled and stored inappropriately?

Is it OK to ship hardware built with dubiously-sourced parts to customers? Can we rationalize the quality risk away? Or is it more ethical to sit around and starve because we can't ship products for a year...?

Human skin temperature is considerably lower. (Or to think of it from another perspective, the system which is insulating your core temperature includes layers inside your body – skin, etc. – in addition to clothing, blanket, etc.)

I believe those are the reasons in the sense that they are result of [thing-we-can't-change] + [best-decision-under-the-circumstances]. But it's an example of the "a bunch of reasonable seeming decisions adding up to something preposterous" system that is quite common today.

Notably, if Seattle wanted a light rail could spend what it cost. Spending over thirty clearly has all sorts of problems - their supplies could go out of business in the middle of the process etc, etc.

I'm sure I find someone who could make the 3 billion dollars of planning money that went the California high speed rail sound sensible too.
Fascinating piece! You have a beautiful site.
Makes complete sense, and like you said, this information is key for security researchers who routinely trawls CT logs looking for discrepancy. And failing on CAA shortly after issuance is quite a huge red flag. If the scenario of rogue national state managed CAs was an issue we'd have pretty good evidence of it by now.

Another, somewhat unrelated, benefit of CAA records is that it allows you to keep tighter control over who and what inside your organization is allowed to issue/control certificates.
So you feed the power to the grid and the grid charges your car at work.
> But Christianity isn’t the default, secular is the default.

Says whom?

Not-strongly-denominational non-to-weakly (note the “a”; not a typo for “weekly”) practicing Christian, or similarly weakly-attached Jewish, seems to be the norm, outside of showed focussing on a distinct and different subculture.

> When there are identifiably Christian characters, they are often some cringey stereotype

I don't think that's really all that much more true than other identities, and it tends to be most true in the same genres and places that there same thing is done with other, including nonreligious identities. I mean, its probably true of most identities in most of TV and film, but that’s Sturgeon’s Law, not a particular problem of Christian characters.
According to eurosport commentary they do change wheels and tires based on the race. That said they use rim brakes so probably never go over 28m tires.

A lot of the people I hear about who get exposed to rabies in the US is because they are ignorant. I've seen and heard of many people picking up baby animals, like raccoons and later being required to have post-exposure prophylaxis treatment.
This was Synmat. Should probably have had a repair kit with me but as I recall there were multiple leaks. And have several older Thermarest products. But there are definitely tradeoffs between weight and durability.
Eta alone can mean ‘the’, ‘she who’, ‘either/or’, ‘indeed’, ‘than’, or ‘I was’, with the accent helping to narrow it down. Eta+nu is ‘her who’, ‘he/she/it was’, etc.

Also, for example, tau+iota is either an interrogative or an indefinite pronoun, and it is the accent which tells you which without having to scan further through the sentence.

The 1918 flu left about 675k fatalities in the U.S.

The 1918 flu had much higher fatality rates elsewhere in the world.
It’s maybe $40 for my cat to have a 2 year rabies vaccine. In the US we do a good enough job of animal vaccination that we don’t need to do human rabies vaccination, as another poster down thread said, 2 deaths per year per 350 million, the vaccine itself is more likely to cause death than the disease.

I'm also a big fan of Quectel, but I prefer the BC66, with pure NB-IoT, no Linux, no PI, baremetal firmware.
This thing runs 10 years on a battery. For meshes we did our own protocol, similar to Zigbee. You can control various optimizations much better.

The faster BC660 with LTE is also nice if you can power it and need the transmission rates. But I trust NB-IoT more, which runs on the empty ex-3G frequencies. LTE is pretty loaded
It helps to expand the gene pool of specialized breeds if you seek mates internationally. This is necessary to continue to select for desired traits without resorting to inbreeding or drastically reducing the amount of breeding that's done.

Correct. There have been no long term studies, no MRNA vaccines have been fully approved, and the COVID vaccine is the first MRNA vaccine to be given to the general population.
So much for the better.

We shouldn't subsidize unlivable business models with human misery.

If that (the closures) also result in misery (of the unemployment kind) that will also be a good thing. It will signal stongly that we depend on broken business models and need to update them.

What you want is a compromise that perpetuates substinence-level wages and working class people needing 2 jobs, for the benefit of keeping alive zombie businesses.

> Kraken intends to invest your deposits in fixed income assets

They don't source this claim at all, they just assert it and expect you to follow along.

It's always easy to craft a just-so-story that sounds reasonable. We could find theories all over the internet about why existing banks today should collapse any minute. What matters is the expertise and credibility of the source.
For people who like that kind of thing, that's the kind of thing they like. There actually are such people. They aren't me, and it sounds like they aren't you, but they exist in greater numbers than you seem to suspect.
All of them? Per the CDC, "to date less than 20 cases of human survival from clinical rabies have been documented"
Our vet told us that there was no reason for concern when the dog caught a visibly sick bat. He was current on his shots, and he said vaccination was exceedingly effective to prevent rabies.
I get what you're saying, but expecting police officers to stand-up to their colleagues when they are breaking the law in their presence is not unreasonable.

Citizen review and oversight it definitely important and necessary. The police themselves are also radically failing their responsibilities in this regard.

Hoisting someone up to get humiliated on national TV is giving them equal credence? It's impossible to give equal credence to Flat-Earth equivalents, except by engineering things so that they get to talk about their "persecution" without saying anything about what they believe. (That is a common trick, watch out for it and you'll see it in many fringe subcultures.) Get them talking about their beliefs on a concrete level and the credence goes out the window. Putting its head on a stake where everyone can see it will do nothing to assist it.

As it turns out, apparently it's easier to develop an exact protocol-level clone of an existing USB to serial chip which already has working drivers than it is to write reliable, high-quality serial drivers for a new chip. This may say something about the state of software these days.
The rabies vaccine is the most intimidating/uncomfortable shot I've ever had - it's a huge vial of bright pink/purple fluid!

It also doesn't provide full protection - you still need to get multiple shots if you're ever actually exposed to rabies.

Ripgrep uses one of Hyperscan's string search algorithms. In general, Hyperscan isn't wonderfully suited for a "grep use case", as it's not focused on quick compile times. It was built for cases where the regex sets (and it's usually sets, sometimes large sets) are known in advance and where it's worth doing "heroics" to optimize scanning of these sets on a precompiled bytecode.

It's not a direct comparison with Rust's regex crate or with ripgrep, but this article shows the comparison with re2. Notice that on average it takes 140K worth of scanning to "catch up" with RE2::Set with 10 patterns - the situation would be even more marked with 1 pattern.

https://www.hyperscan.io/2017/06/20/regex-set-scanning-hyper...

Personally, I'm dissatisfied with the approach to regex scanning in Hyperscan (too heavyweight at construction and too complex) but not much more pleased by the Rust regex crate or RE2 (frankly, the whole compile-a-giant-DFA-as-you-go isn't that great either). I feel on the verge of taking another crack at the problem. Lord knows the world needs another regex library...

Is the use of adjuvants in vaccines meant for humans a normal thing, now? I had the impression that since it was not clear how the adjuvants attained their effect, adjuvants were not yet considered safe enough, although they have long been used in vaccines for livestock and pets.

Are there certain specific adjuvants now considered safe, or is it open season? What other vaccines for people are adjuvants used in now? When was the first one approved?

The main reason to allow dog imports is probably to accommodate people relocating or returning to the US.

As a matter of fact, though, the reason the ban has been introduced has been a consequence of a dog shortage. Because many people are spending more time at home alone, demands for pets has gone up. Apparently there aren't enough dogs in the US to fulfill current demand.
This sounds similar to the people who would refuse to upgrade to automobiles because horses were better than cars.

Induction is better in almost every way over gas. There are a few minor things you can't do it with it, like wok cooking or charring peppers etc. But for those instances, there are easy workarounds, I just use my turkey fryer for wok work, and use a handheld blowtorch for charring.

Uh, a “short round” is an artillery shell that falls short and lands on friendly soldiers. I don’t know how that could possibly be an ethnic stereotype. It seems to me he was named (edit: nicknamed to be clear) for being chaotic and disruptive, much like an unexpected artillery shell landing in your midst.
