> * A PhD in Denmark is a bit special, in that it is very short (essentially limited to 3 years) and thus has a slightly different scope.

I think 3-4 years is the norm in most countries where you do a (two-years) master's before you do a PhD.
You're the one talking about BLM. You're the one talking about "Black".

I happily said "anti-vax" was an identity marker.

The relevant comment here, and context, is the use of the term "discrimination" by the right wing. And indeed, see for example, the recent CIA advert using "equality, diversity" and various identity markers.

The unifying phenomenon isn't political -- even if we take BLM itself to be a purely political manifestation. The unifying phenomenon has to account for the alt-right alongside BLM.

What is occurring ACROSS the political spectrum is a new civic religious awakening.

This fervour you have, as a political hobbyist, is at base an identity fervour. Much more akin to a religious fervour. You are commenting on a website advertising your identity. You aren't on any barricades.

The US, and to some degree the west, is undergoing a religious revival disguised as a political movement. It may contain them ("BLM", "Capital Riot", etc.) -- but the social transformation is one purely in the space of "signification" (identity). The capital rioters, and the blm activists -- the TV evangelicals (fox, colbert) -- the CIA with its "diversity" -- celebrities with their metoo opportunism -- your local MegaCrop with its "heartfelt commitments" to the new dogma.

This is a religion. It isnt a politics. It exists purely in the space of identity, signification, public professing.

Trump is the perfect non-political president in this style: a person elected to do nothing political, and everything "religious" -- to be seen to be saying, not to be seen doing.

This is all of the same kind: the new activist left, the alt right, the CIA and Google. It's a religious awakening bordering on a hysteria.
Growing up, my grandparents' house had a biogas plant, powered by cowdung (they had anywhere between 6 and 8 cows and bulls at the time). Looked something like this: https://www.peda.gov.in/nnbomp

Most of the cooking and some of the lighting for the house was done using this thing. Most of the bigger houses in the village had one.
> At an individual clinical level they may not be at significant risk, but the justification for vaccinating them is not about individual clinical risks but public health.

This is a very serious mistake. The duty of a doctor is to the patient in front of them and no one else. The question they have to consider is, is this proposed treatment more likely than not to help this particular patient? If so, the doctor advises the patient to undergo the procedure. If not, they advise against it. If a doctor is considering anything other than the health of the person presently before them, they need to make that clear, that they are treating a herd rather than a specific patient.

> As far as I can tell, the potential risks of vaccinating children are overwhelmingly outweighed by the potential public health risks

That's not the calculus. The question is the risk/benefit for them individually. And, I will add, the risk for even just them as individuals is not known. Some people are advising that the vaccines could cause very significant injury, e.g. https://odysee.com/@OracleFilms:1/Dr.-Sucharit-Bhakdi-Oracle...
In this case, as mentioned in the article, Google is fined for not complying with a formal order by France's Competition Authority.

This is how it works in all countries. In the US, try not to take an order by the SEC seriously, for instance...
In a lot of organizations, the language in the descriptions doesn't matter. Over time it becomes a fact that a contributor at a certain job with a certain experience should be a given level. That's it.
If C++ constructors don't call allocation functions (1), don't initialize members which call allocation functions (2) and don't use features like RTTI which I've mentioned in a previous post, then they do not allocate. It's not trivial to ensure the above and while it's not usual for regular C++ projects, it's certainly manageable because C++ is used in some kernels and has a track record of being used in projects with constraints much tighter that the Linux kernel itself.

(2) seems the most tricky, but in reality, in a context like the Linux kernel where the libraries would be written from scratch or wrap existing C code, this can be controlled well. If one is including a new language in the kernel, it should be comparably low effort for example to write a custom vector container which exactly fulfills their requirements.

In the end I realize that C (and I assume Rust) makes it easier to reason about allocations in simple pieces of code which don't call functions, but this is not a deal breaker for C++ either.

So I don't think that allocations is the answer to the question of "Why Rust over C++?", as you claimed when you said "The allocations thing in particular". It's perhaps part of the answer, together with other technical reasons and personal likes or dislikes. And I believe that the latter are an important part of that answer that few if any are bringing up in this thread.
Copyright applies to all equally, maybe we will finally get some lobbying to change it if it hurts billion dollar companies enough. Until then they can suffer under it the same way everyone else does.
I feel warm to this idea, so I mean this question genuinely: if the paternal leave is funded by taxes, does it still match salary?

If so, it will not be easy to convince poorer voters to vote for a policy that gives more money to the rich than the poor.

If not, the incentives will still be imbalanced but in another way: lower paid employees will be more likely to accept the leave than higher paid employees.
>All information points the disease being worse than the vaccine.

No, at some point you are trusting some external entities. You trust the information because you trust the entities that provide it.

When you say that someone else is irrational, you are doing that because that person does not share your trust. And to that person, in all probability, what you are doing might be irrational.

In the end, I think no one have the right to impose their standard of trust on to anyone else.
There was a sizable rift after Elm’s 0.19 version. Removing synchronous FFI, especially to existing browser APIs that haven’t been rewrapped with a new API by the core team caused a lot of individuals and businesses to migrate mainly to PureScript, Reason, and/or Typescript—myself included. Couple with community hierarchy issues, lack of development/roadmap transparency, rotting merge requests to the core libraries (security, bugfix, and performance issues), and community libraries, Git hosting, and identity tied solely to Microsoft’s GitHub accounts, it’s not something I personally could recommend. I do however think it’s a great learning language—especially for first-time functional programming—but I would be very hesitant in your assessment for production if you need to scale to use browser APIs, i18n, l10n, etc. or like/need the ability to fork and contribute to the core.

I really don't think it's the communities on Reddit that are the problem. I mean, yes, some communities there are problematic, but way more are great.

The problem is the site owners. They are growing increasingly user hostile.
> Well, what should be payed with public money in your opinion?

Health care, education, police, infrastructure...

> Most people agree that children are a very important part of our society and future.

I'd say some. At the end of the line there will always be someone that will pop out some nonetheless, so why wait spend public money on it? Humanity is on an upward trend and is going to reproduce anyway. It has been like this for millennia, even before money existed.
Lambda development toolbox: Set environment variables locally
The genome is full of retrovirus remnants, so there’s a way for a parasite to piggyback on the host genome. Alu repeats in human genome are one such example. But there’s a hypothesis that these get “domesticated” by the genome and start serving a function.
> If it's virtually zero risk

It would be great if we knew that, but we don't. We usually have long testing periods, but we didn't this time, for reasons that remain unclear.

> Stop trying to make out like this is some sort of new or extreme position.

Please remind me, when was the last time that we gave people vaccines not to protect that person specifically, but to allegedly protect some unknown other person, somewhere?
Anyone running a business knows that fines at ~day's revenue of the business are at best nuisance (this fine represents ~1.2 days of Google revenue). Google should be able to afford order of magnitude large fines if it helps them buy time and find a "way" to relieve the pressure from news orgs of one country and come up with a more comprehensive answer to this 'threat' in general. Giving the French what they want would add to the streak of precedents that are much more dangerous for Google's bottom line.

Imagine if Google needed to have a revenue share agreement with every website it uses snippets from, anywhere in the world, proportional to appearances/clicks in results? This could be possible because there is nothing special in the laws about news sites as such, they are just more organized in their demands. This would be search 2.0, sustainable for the web, but would 'bad' for the search giant as we know it today.
Since the redesign Reddit has been putting a huge amount of effort into keeping people on their platform. They've went out of their way to make it impossible to send a link directly to a video without external tools like the savevideo bot, any link to click will load the entire thread and they even go out of their way to seperate audio and video requests and merge them client-side so you can't just open dev tools to get the video link as the video link has no audio.
> Personally I have been exposed to COVID-19 at the hospital on a regular basis, and I have been quarantined before with people who were positive. It does not seem to pose such a risk that you are talking about to me. I have an immunologic autoimmune disorder, too. This is my personal experience and case.

There's nothing scientific about any of that. You could have some natural immunity. You could also simply have been lucky. You might never be infected. You might also someday die from the disease. This is entirely anecdotal and basically useless information.

> Plus I do not know if I was talking against getting vaccinated, I merely said that more side-effects may come to light, which I mention because many people seem to have excluded it from the list of possibilities.

People shouldn't exclude that from the list of possibilities. But people _should not_ take it into account with their decision-making. If they are going to give weight to the future possibility of negative side-effects coming to light, they should also give weight to the future possibility that positive side-effects may come to light.

Said simply, there's nothing very useful in the statement "we might know more in the future than now".
Well I have a say on how public money is spent, and my idea is that public money for personal lifestyle choices is wrong.
>>My parents and grandparents have had to schedule surgeries with a government, though. They get a date, they show up, they get the surgery, they get discharged, no bullshit, no surprise bills, no worrying over whether or not you actually owe money, or are just getting shaken down.

Your parents experience, and my parents and grandparents (when they were alive) experience with medicare seems to be massively different. You do know that medicare does not cover 100%, and there is tangled web of Part B, Part D, Part E, Part Z coverage that cover some things, not others, and no one can ever tell you what is covered by who with private insurance and government all pointing fingers at each either....

and that is with getting into the fact that more and more private doctors are refusing to take medicare because of low reimbursement rates and slow reimbursement rates so you have to go into a big network or hospital network not a local small doctor office
Yes, that are good point and I stand humbly corrected. I was probably being too reductive in my comments above.

No doubt someone whose mommy told him that was the just the way things are.
I’ve been writing Elm professionally for the past 2.5 years on a large project. The language is a pure joy to use, unparalleled refactoring experience. Yes it’s a small community, but there’s many jobs posted on Elm slack.
My source of skepticism on such reports is my own Government that makes people lie about the COVID-19 cases (we have more reported than actual) because it funds our hospitals and our Government in general. We have a huge history of taking EU money in such a way, and it is pretty much incentivized. Our president told us a few months ago that COVID-19 will go away during summer (tourism), and will return in September. We are also going to produce our own vaccines, so they will be trash-talking others when it is done (again, we (or they) have done such things often).
But you're misrepresenting my comments again! I never said that training in
simulation is a "cop out" because I don't think it's a cop out!

I agree that simulation results can be real resuls. I concede that the LASER
paper made an original contribution to knowledge. My complain is that you
overplay the result in the LASER paper when you say that "with a couple of expert
examples and algorithm can learn to open a door effectively" but ommit to
mention that this happened in simulation.

There's more to say here that I'd like to put into words at some point, but I
don't think I'm in the right mood right now. I apologise if you were hoping for
some more insightful remarks from me. Thanks for the conversation - I appreciate
the time you took to give your point of view and share your expertise.
There where an article recently regarding Humios use of Elm:
https://www.humio.com/whats-new/blog/why-we-chose-elm-for-hu...

Using job postings isn't really that useful. If they where any indication then the two only language in existence would be Java and C#. That depends on where you live of cause. E.g. there are plenty of Python jobs around where I live, but they aren't frequently posted on the regular job sites. I'd suspect that Elm jobs are posted where Elm developers are to be found.
Equal paternity leave is a thing but it doesn't change the fact that women get pregnant and men don't which is why most employers still discriminate against hiring women and why the salary gap is still a thing.

Edit: Don't get why I'm downvoted for saying the truth on how many employers think when hiring. Is stating the hard truth bad or something? I don't like it myself but that's how our society works.
> The discrimination against people with AIDS was based on irrational fear of getting AIDS by touching or interacting with them.

Sorry but this is wrong and feels like it's straight from a telemovie.

It was around body fluids and how often people swapped them in practice. Could someone throw up on someones eyes. Do kids fighting swap much blood, this was addressed in 1990's Degrassi High as an unknown. https://degrassi.fandom.com/wiki/Bad_Blood_(2)

Countries today discriminate on HIV, not because they are afraid of touch.

"Some 59 countries, territories and areas deny the entry, stay or residence of HIV-positive people because of their HIV status only" https://www.unaids.org/sites/default/files/media_asset/jc173...

People with HIV are a risk especially in countries without adequate treatments, if America wants to discriminate based on risk, there's no reason other countries can't also discriminate on risk.

And if you want to do it based on intent, it opens up a Pandoras box of whether murders get blood transfusions, or hookers or junkies. It's a mess.

> And with SaveVideo you still spam and even reveal to everyone you are downloading the video in the process.

Unless the SaveVideo link is already there, in which case it's one click. Just because your workflow works for you, that doesn't mean others are morally compromised for doing things differently.
Or train the model on their own proprietary code base too?
IMO Reddit got a lot more hostile in the small communities I were part of when the PC stuff started and many negative subs got banned without warning. Could be selection bias.

But agreed the websites updates are horrible in every single way. I can't think of one new feature that did not make things worse, the only way I can use Reddit is adding the old. Subdomain manually every time
From a Darwinian perspective, those who do not have any offspring are complete failures. Dead ends in the gene pool. Don't worry about it: in just a few generations the problem will take care of itself.
Going by bloomberg they offered the same amount they pay for weather data[1]. As far as I understand offering to pay the same for something that involves a lot of manual work as you do for what should be a highly automated process kinda undercuts any possibility of this being a sane offer.

I love that they're downvoted so much, the information is easy to find, I have no problem calling out the outright dishonesty of not leading with "I made the thing I'm about to recommend"

And I have no issue being accusatory, in fact let me get more accusatory, how strange is it the other comment that I felt was weird came from a 4 karma account that made it's first comment in 7 years on this post!

It's funny because there are literally 6 ESP32 variants in my order history from the last month. There's one sitting next to me running the project I'm debugging.

TinyPICO just went from "It's expensive but if I want to have a USB C port, that's the one" to "I will never buy one".

I'm not saying that as some giant "gotcha!" I'm sure there's no shortage of people who will buy them, but I won't be one of them. Not going to support these kinds of games.

You don't have the right to simply ignore all the research going into this and be treated seriously.

I did both I guess. And because I could not share it, teachers never bothered.

Then you’ll have to request multiple people who run services that backs up every reddit post.

But that’s still way better than HN. At least on reddit you can easily delete posts and accounts.

> Sorry. I mean this, and this happens to children:

What source are you quoting there? I can find that line in an abc news feed, but no attribution and nothing much else about it. Every other source seems to be talking about inflammation of one sort or another (myocarditis or pericarditis), primarily in young men, very rarely and easily recoverable.

> The point is that we did not know this would be the case

We are learning all the time, that's true, but these side effects are very rare, and are becoming visible due to the large scale of the rollout. It doesn't fundamentally change the calculus, especially when we are now learning that the disease itself can cause lasting lung and brain damage.

> I asked the question twice with regarding to it so I am not going to do it again here.

See my other answers then.
Thats a great point. I've spoken to a few people who chose a microservices architecture because it seemed to be the only choice discussed online. Whatever regrets they had now are not useful, because its too late/expensive to change.
To choose an appropriate architecture, the business case and pros and cons of different architectures need to be considered using a well established method, such as the one described here http://markgreville.ie/2021/02/17/how-architects-make-decisi...
Water is the most powerful greenhouse gas because it’s so abundant. Because it is so abundant though, the absorption lines are pretty much maxed. Besides the available quantum states (1 and 2 atom molecules cannot be GHGs) which make CFCs more powerful, the main impact on GHG strength is relative abundance. Methane is rare, so every atom is important, CO2 is uncommon, and H2O is common. I guess that makes CFCs a foil, lol.
Does that make a difference? What I said was they are “supposed to be independent” in the broader context of saying the politicians shouldn’t censure the judges, but might anyway.
I'd probably compare it to patching tires or installing a replacement tire valve. The pressure in a car tire is around 2.5-3 bar, the bike tires go up to 4-4.5 bar.
Are men taking the time as much as women? So basically the difference is the 1-2 months (or whatever the average is) women take off before giving birth? Maybe the solution is to add that amount of time to male paternity leave?
> There's nothing scientific about any of that. You could have some natural immunity. You could also simply have been lucky. You might never be infected. You might also someday die from the disease. This is entirely anecdotal and basically useless information.

Not for me though it is not, and that is the only reason I mentioned it, that there are such occurrences, too. Whether or not you believe me, well, that is up to you, and you can do whatever you want with it. :) I did add "personal experience", so yes, of course, it is anecdotal.

> there's nothing very useful in the statement "we might know more in the future than now"

OK, time will tell regardless.
OK, that's fair enough, you're not interested in the engineering side of things – but then expect blowback if you decide to comment on exactly that.
Maybe this would be a good interim way to address global tax.
