Yes and how did those invasions go? Russia is a fortress due to its size and weather.

But when Russia invaded Europe towards the end of WW2, they grabbed all of Poland, half of Germany, and more. They could have gone all the way until the English channel if they wanted, if the US wasn’t there.

Eh, the easiest most effective arguments are also the most toxic. The people who disagree with me aren't just wrong but they're disingenuous liars with an agenda so terrible even they won't admit to it. The people who disagree with me don't even understand what they're saying because they're just mindlessly repeating things they have been indoctrinated to believe.

Neither of those will convince anyone of anything but it makes people who already agree really happy and it drives those people who disagree up a wall.
Drug Repurposing for Coronaviruses: Be Careful
.... making almost $3B in profit.

edit: in perpective - they owned about 0.55% of Tesla. Selling their share nets Panasonic a windfall thats worth about 10% of their own $27.7B market cap.
Are they even that anymore? That seems like it would be an improvement. Now it seems like they're just cast members doing product placement for someone else's manifesto.
<1% of market cap, around 5% of average daily volume.

Yet you believe this action should preclude the price from going up?

I'm not stating anything with certainty, but he said multiple times over the years that authorities were threatening him with exactly this, a staged suicide, to the point that he even got it tattooed on himself, because he knew the media would push a narrative claiming he was crazy and suicidal. People are going so far as to say that he killed himself to troll people. The lengths people will go to avoid facing the truth that their leaders are sociopathic gangsters is extreme.
I think there's something here about how dense countries are. I believe most of the reason the US looks higher is the extremely low density and correspondingly high transportation/communication/etc. costs.

I'm not sure how to factor density into this.
Just because they take credit for what they did in the past doesn't mean it will happen again. When did the ACLU last take the KKK's defence ?

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/06/us/aclu-free-speech.html

The ACLU actively advertised in the Kavanaugh nomination.

Then an ACLU trans lawyer stated: “Stopping the circulation of this book and these ideas is 100% a hill I will die on.”

Then in 2018 they covertly backed Stacey Abrams (democrat).

Then an ACLU editor wishes death on a republican senator.

and so on... The ACLU has very much been gangrened by the marxist.
Ye I understand that, but from a DevOp or system admin perspective all these small things adds up. 6 months deprecation is way too short to first realize this is changing and then fix all the scripts - and most likely still keeping backwards compability with older Go versions in the scripts for projects stuck in older versions.

The remedy in practice is pinning versions by project or even worse org. wide to be able to concentrate on the actual problem being solved if things are breaking too much.
Hm, right. It must be a corruption, because AFAIK the original proverb is "one bad apple spoils the bunch" (because of the chemical thing you mentioned).

Toxic workplaces increase risk of depression by 300%
If a child or a teacher at a school caught covid, the entire class was fully quarantined for a minimum of 14 days and two negative covid tests were necessary for anyone in that class to return. Classes were kept fully isolated from one another, and children had to wear masks in class for a significant part of the year.

No teacher at our school (~600 children) caught covid, and only 3 classes were closed.

What I'm getting at is: it was fully possible to open up schools, provided you have a government and a population that is willing to accept restrictions in other areas. _It's a choice to close schools and demand that indoor restaurant dining stay open_.

Maybe market share, but I can't see how the argument goes for technology or infrastructure.

As of now, none of the auto-driving tech is acceptable to go hands free, people have tried it and paid with their lives. The only difference between Tesla and traditional companies is that Tesla didn't seem to mind people testing unproven techs with their lives while the other manufacturers are more restrictive.

Describing the three scenarios in parallel is a rhetorical technique to raise the question of why some are protected by law and custom, and some are not, in roughly similar outcomes.

The article links to several studies purporting to show this effect in professions that ostensibly have nothing to do with attractiveness.

I get your point. It can be (often is?) reductive to generate a protagonist/antagonist sketch and then extend its implications beyond reason. I don't quite see that happening here.
What makes this even more revolutionary to me (retired anesthesiologist) is that the methodology allows for use of Theranos-style finger-prick-size blood samples rather than IV blood draw, since fragment identity is the indicator rather than level/concentration.
From what I understand, there is a good chance that the pool for variants is limited, and that vaccinations (or a past infection) give decent immunity for new variants. Even for a variant with an immune escape, ie. you are not immune and might even spread it, your past exposures will make a serious case with hospitalisation unlikely. Immune escape is not a boolean attribute.

I don't enough about heart disease treatment to comment on the degree it ruins your life.

People already get further testing. People already get second opinions. In the time you are changing your lifestyle (a good option for helping treatment, I agree) and increasing monitoring you could already be progressing beyond treatability.

You can argue about whether it's alright to tell sub-1.5 million people each year who don't have cancer that they have cancer (I don't think it is, but whatever). But again you can't disregard the non-insignificant number of people who get false positives.

edit: Actually, not "whatever". You probably shouldn't tell sub-1.5 million people each year who don't have cancer that they have cancer.
I think a subscription would be different in that you'd be able to easily switch to a different car on demand, for example if you needed a truck/van to carry some stuff.

And possibly work like electric scooters, you just park the car and it's not your problem, the next day you use a different one that's close by.
Reading between the lines, my guess is Panasonic is getting ready to work --and scale-up-- with lots of car manufacturers. Owning stock in any one company would create a conflict of interest. So, you either buy an equal amount (whatever "equal" means) in stock in every company you work with or you own no stock on any of them. The latter is the easiest path to eliminating any ethical questions.

It doesn't strike me as particularly new, politicians in days of yore were pretty durned hard on each other. and usually better read than the current crop.

Yeah "dumping" a winning trade isn't dumping. It's taking profits to move onto other investments.
Not to mention that the word "survivor" is completely meaningless for this dead ancient humanoid
The slogan caters to both sides. When campaigning to extremists, it's a dog whistle and means exactly what the words mean (defund or "abolish" police by virtue of removing their funding). Simultaneously, it's also "oh it just means defund, not unfund" for the tame and middle-ground activists that see problems in over-funded policing as well as for the apologists that want to legitimize the extreme "unfund" part of the movement.

The problem at it's core is that politicians (including activists) and their platforms are not held accountable and their words are meaningless because they have no definition. Like just look at this thread. "Unfund" vs "Defund". How on earth are we supposed to infer that specific meaning and trust the other side to do so as well? It's like a recipe specifically designed for conflict and misunderstanding. Also a perfect recipe for back and forth definition debates like this one, instead of arguing about the core issues.
Well. With a bad test, what is necessary is to improve the test. The argument "outcomes are worse off with more absent symptoms testing" is really saying that symptoms is more predictive than the test itself: test is positive if [symptoms & positive result] test is positive or neutral if [no symptoms & should have been screened & positive result] and test is negative if [no symptoms & should not have been screened & positive result] (notice that this does not change the outcome to not testing people without symptoms and without another reason to do so). Until the tests/decision protocols were improved to avoid false positive, this third case should be communicated to the person as a negative result of the test (if we are convinced that the overall outcome is better off if the test should not have been administered at all), but I would find that unethical and dehumanizing and I understand touches on lots of ethical issues: the stress of waiting for a result, the liability of not being an actual false positive, etc. So, I understand, that given the current state of the testing, the decision is to restrict when to do it.
They're learning from playing with other kids. I've seen more parents go for walks and kids playing outside than ever before. They don't want to sit at home all day. So they socialize and play sports more now. Pickup Soccer, Biking, and so on. It's great for their mental health and development to be doing things on their own, figuring out the world, without parental supervision. You can learn so much from team sports.

It's still unclear whether this is due to fundamentals like the ones you mention, or just an irrational stock market.

Now that more and more companies are coming out with their EVs, the truth might become clearer.

If you are doing FEC then you need to decide how many bits you are going to be able to correct. That determines the amount of redundancy you need. Media problems generally come in physical media sized chunks, often adjacent. Hundreds, thousands or millions of bits might be involved. FEC is not a magic bullet for data loss, particularly in this case. Usually the best you can do is to recover the good parts and age deliberately prevents you from doing that.
Toyota have been mass producing hybrid electric cars since 1997, and they practically invented the modern vehicle assembly line.

"The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."

And it will continue to go up until it doesn't. Maybe Tesla has a vault of unicorn blood and is just waiting for the perfect time to unveil it, but as a car company, their stock valuation makes absolutely no sense. It would take a miracle for Tesla to overtake more than all 3 top automakers combined. There is zero indication this has any possibility of becoming a reality.

Tesla's stock performance is in pure FOMO land now.

> make a rich man richer

While true, this can be a very self-defeating way of thinking about it. The reality is that we are paid quite well, and it takes an entity with lots of resources to be willing to take on the risk of a fulltime hire like us.

It's not easy to build a business that gets to that stage; believe me, I tried. So on the whole "working for the man" is a very rational choice, your end of the deal isn't too bad in the big picture, and you shouldn't feel bad about it.
Hi Throwaway - sounds like Bright Horizons at Genentech? My 3 year old was at Bright Horizons at UCSF and they were even faster (~5 days) to figure out protocols to keep kids in the program so their essential worker parents could fight this war. Hard decisions were made and tradeoffs happened.

The following paragraph:

> Karoline Leach's reappraisal of Dodgson focused in particular on his controversial sexuality. She argues that the allegations of paedophilia rose initially from a misunderstanding of Victorian morals, as well as the mistaken idea – fostered by Dodgson's various biographers – that he had no interest in adult women. She termed the traditional image of Dodgson "the Carroll Myth". She drew attention to the large amounts of evidence in his diaries and letters that he was also keenly interested in adult women, married and single, and enjoyed several relationships with them that would have been considered scandalous by the social standards of his time. She also pointed to the fact that many of those whom he described as "child-friends" were girls in their late teens and even twenties.[89] She argues that suggestions of paedophilia emerged only many years after his death, when his well-meaning family had suppressed all evidence of his relationships with women in an effort to preserve his reputation, thus giving a false impression of a man interested only in little girls.

It was a long time ago that I looked into this. It is nice to see that there are better studies now. (I always thought that the number of errors seemed suspiciously low).
Tesla MARKET VALUATION has grown like crazy, but their sales and profits are lagging behind. And you're wrong: Tesla might have an advantage in infrastructure (Supercharges) but their technology is not far ahead of others, and their market share is falling down (at least in Europe).

Also: Tesla is planning to open up their chargers network to other cars [1]. So either they have a plan to ditch car manufacturing and focus on chargers network (and battery production), or they are digging their own grave.

[1] https://electrek.co/2021/06/24/tesla-confirms-plan-open-supe...
That makes sense in the restricted context of what traditional makers did. Tesla has a way of broadening their markets. e.g. batteries. electric power storage, electric chargers. This can continue so possibly cut into petrol or logistics companies. Hard to quantify a limit.

I once cried in a meeting because someone on another team reused a bit flag in a struct for a different purpose than I had intended. Luckily this was the day before a three week vacation, my first in several years. Thankfully it was in the time before cell phones and ubiquitous email so it was a real vacation. The vacation didn't "fix" me but it did give me enough time to see that I was broken and needed to make changes.

The lesson for me was to never put in a day, week, … or year of work that I couldn't sustain because being able to get through the next day, week, …, year might be even more important than the current one. This was especially true as my startup started to grow. The first year had been stressful with just two of us working flat out, but once we got a payroll, yikes the pressure was multiplied. There are circumstances where a do-or-die effort is required but usually sustainability is much more important.

There are smart watches for kids, and as a parent I thought they were great (my kid is old enough for a phone now). They had a very limited set of features but my kid could call me or text me silly pictures anytime, and I could call him or text him back. And I could see his current location. They had terrible battery life though.

But I'm not one of those parents who things screens are inherently bad anyway. I think you would be hard pressed to find any credible evidence to the contrary. I grew up on screens and now I have a good job as a programmer where I can provide a good life for my kids.
Appreciating the irony that we've gone to all this trouble to create e2e crypto protocols so that now we can finally trust products like Ring and Alexa to spy on us.

The beauty of Wickr is it provided disposable identities and relatively strong anonymity, and fended off bulk interception using an end to end security protocol. The market for it was smaller because while everyone says they want security, I found that the risk/reward of anonymity is too risky for most people. The people I knew who did use Wickr were political staffers and operatives/activists on campaigns, law enforcement, and other fields where they had official recourse to protection.

The reason for AMZN to buy Wickr is that it is a trustworthy secure messenger product with a valuable and influential user base, and an evolution of the product without anonymity is probably the case for growth.

I don't see it being backdoored so much as just adapted to leverage its existing user base to fill out a feature need in a suite of AWS collaboration tools that will compete against Teams/Github, Zoom, Atlassian, etc.
