The information suppression is incredible.
Even the inventor of the mRNA technology Robert Malone isn't allowed to speak about concerns.
Truly in an Orwellian society of tyranny.
Thus the vaccination requirement.

I don't agree with Google on returning to the office (at all, irrespective of COVID), but frankly at this point, almost anything that improves vaccine rates is fine with me. The sooner we're all vaccinated, the sooner we can return to normal life.
It simplifies aspects of address configuration, network renumbering, and router announcements when changing network connectivity providers.

It simplifies processing of packets in routers by placing the responsibility for packet fragmentation into the end points.

The IPv6 subnet size is standardized by fixing the size of the host identifier portion of an address to 64 bits.
> The good news is that what is good for humans is to maintain biodiversity and what's good for biodiversity is good for animals.

Exactly, which is why I'm generally in support of building things in a way that maintains biodiversity. But we should be doing it for us as the principle driving this action, even if the outcome seems the same.

> But you are wrong that animals don't have, or cannot conceive of, having rights and that we don't "owe" them anything. The truth is that we owe all living things the right to exist in the same way your rights are granted by the constitution.

Which animal can grasp a philosophically grounded conception of rights? If they can't do that, they do not know of rights. Certain species of primates may react to what they perceive as fair and unfair, but this is founded in emotion and social habits, not reason, which is required for a conception of rights. You will never see an animal respecting your rights, they simply happen to act in a way that doesn't directly infringe on them, but only sometimes. Also, I should clarify, just because animals don't have rights doesn't mean it is good for us, as individuals, to do anything we want to them at any time. Unnecessary cruelty is not good for an individual psychologically, in addition to the fact that it does not add to your life in any way.
I'm only guessing based on my personal interpretation of azangru, but I think the concern is delivery mechanisms that have never, or only rarely, been used before.

Regarding evidence for "spooky things", well, by their nature there is no or little evidence for them. They are black swans and the means by which they are addressed is the precautionary principle. In particular, by their nature, there can be no evidence about presence or absence of long term effects of novel delivery mechanisms.

Personally speaking, I suspect I'm a lot better off being vaccinated than not but some of the credulity around vaccines is rather surprising to me (especially the fact that many people don't seem to know that J&J uses a novel delivery mechanism too).
You could mandate it at the office. As more people get vaccinated, more are eligible to return. Eventually you could add in mandatory attendance as the vaccine is more available.
There was a post in the scaleway user forum(~2020) asking 'Who has access to the data on the disk' to which the founder or CEO replied that the Engineers do have access but the datacenters are very secure as it's thoroughly monitored.

I remember this because I used fscrypt after seeing the post, Scaleway seems to have removed the entire user forum sometime last year.

I stopped using their service after they removed their ARM severs with short notice, But this is more scary.

Unfortunately this is the reality when it comes to AWS[1] or other top-tier cloud providers vs inexpensive ones. The cost saving has to happen somewhere.

Breakthrough infections with Delta remain relatively low amongst fully vaccinated people, with most cases not resulting in serious infections.
I want to also add this to my parent post above. There are several vaccinations. Not all are equal. Sinovac was given to my Turkish relatives and they now have to get a 3rd or even 4th shot as Sinovac's efficacy was found to decline after some amount of months.

That no one mentions each shot may be different is more proof (to me) that there is a lot of politics (as opposed to thoughtful analysis) going on here.
> They could have at least let ipv6 only folks talk to ipv4 more easily.

And how do the IPv4 hosts talk back?

464XLAT is one solution, but it requires infrastructure to be in place to perform the protocol translation. The protocol alone isn't enough to allow interoperation.
Your risk (really, your blast radius) is coupled with your broader society's risk. This has always been the case; I suspect that with increasing population density, this is unavoidable.

ETA: not all unvaccinated are by choice. This is not now and never has been purely an issue of choice.
That's interesting; I've been getting health insurance through my employers since that time as well, and never had to provide any health history. I thought that was part of the value of a group health plan.
Yes, I'm just saying that the more time passes, and the more people see that their friends and neighbors are suffering no side effects, that this particular concern/objection will decline.

It was very naive to think that 100% of the population would enthusiastically be on board with getting this vaccine. That never happens. I am too young to remember but I would guess there were holdouts on the first polio vaccines as well (though maybe not as many, as it affected mostly children and the diesease had much worse outcomes).
Those conditions don't overwhelm hospital capacity because they don't produce exponential growth of illness, so I don't think you could make the same argument.
Mononoki is my recent favorite (unmentioned yet, but surely popular).

Monofur is a wild font I'm mildly surprised was omitted. I did use it full-time for a while maybe 10 years ago, but it's maybe not the best daily driver.

Moreover: no statement on conflicts of interest (at least not readily available), possibly because it is “only” a letter (wish I could get one published in the lancet…).

What do you find unreasonable about having concerns with taking a vaccine that was rushed through testing, using a technique that has considerably less historical evidence than other vaccines, and that didn't even meet the original definition of vaccine (at least in the US)?
Natural areas can increase property values. Look at the property values of the houses abbuting griffith park or anywhere along the san gabriel mountains vs those in south central LA. The difference in price for an otherwise identical 3br home might be $1.5mm between areas with easy access to nature and those without. I'm sure this is true in just about any city, where neighborhoods near parkland are generally more valuable than areas far from parkland surrounded by development.
Huh I didn't know the obese were no longer a heavy weight on the cost, availability and quality of healthcare. Good to know! Looking forward to my insurance premiums coming down once you pass that info to the insurance companies and socialized gov medicine!
Many universities, entities in the healthcare system, events, NYC, etc. Personally, I expect the floodgates to open at least moderately wide as putting requirements in place is increasingly normalized.

Some jobs actually do require a car, either explicitly or because no other form of transportation would be practical for an area.

Since higher vaccination rates protect other people, I'm hopeful that vaccines become as mandatory as possible. That this bothers anti-vaxxers doesn't bother me, because why should it? I'm not more bothered by this than the vaccine requirement to enter public schools for kids.
I do care because if enough people refuse to vaccinate we won't get rid of this pandemic, with all it consequences, and we make it easier for variants to develop, which could be even resistant to vaccines.
> And? Why aren't people allowed to take risks anymore?

Because they are taking risks with other people's lives, if they spread it. I'm not sure why this is so hard to factor in - if you get Covid, you are more likely to give it to someone else.

If people take the risk, they should also be responsible (collectively, since we apparently can't do tracing very well) for the results. That means they cover the financial costs, and (in my more extreme moments), I think they should face charges of negligence where we can directly attribute to a source.
It isn't though.

Sure if you got sick and crawled into a ditch and died then more power to you.

Instead you would end up going to a hospital and wasting a bunch of peoples time, and in the event your dumbass dies from it - some poor man/woman has to hold your hand while you gurgle out your deathrattle.

Being selfish with your own life in a society never just affects you. That's why it's a society. Someone will always have to clean up your shit when you make poor decisions with your life.
You can choose to be vaccinated (minus the obvious medical exceptions), you can't choose your minority status.
They discontinued this offer quite a while ago, now there's only the usual $5 instances.
I usually change my phone to airplane mode for long drives or hikes through signal-less wilderness, otherwise they'll thrash around searching frantically for signal until they drain the battery outrageously fast. It's really quite annoying.
Peter Daszak, conflicts of interest, Ecohealth Alliance. That is why.
I'm pro science, pro medicine and vaccinated, but as far as "the sustained attack on the idea of government" and "the concept of authority"; you don't think the fairly obvious and rampant corruption in the government, itself has something to do with that? Political donations have become a "buy your senator" campaign for corporate influence without the need for subtlety or subterfuge, and we've been at a state of declared war for 30 years, with expanded governmental control, with no end in sight. This doesn't seem like an attack on the idea of government, but an attack on the idea of a corrupted governing body.
Antibodies from the vaccine are a lot more numerous and longer lasting in one's body. Apparently having had it only gives you a shorter duration of immunity.
Colorado Grain Chain
The vast majority of the world does not have effective mRNA-type vaccines, and have outbreaks following mass vaccination of ineffective ones (and in some cases, fraudulent locals use saline). Kids cannot receive it yet, as much as they want to, and there are numerous parents explicitly refusing their kids the consent to be vaccinated. The more spread, the more dice get rolled on creating further deficiencies in vaccination success.

Honestly, my opinion - if everyone could be vaccinated and the vaccine was always 100% effective 100% of the time without exception, I would not care at all about "individual choice" or "I don't want to take it", I would not care about the extra mutations being created, I would not care about being next to an unvaccinated individual at all.
The HP & DPS explanation only goes so far :

I think it’s absolutely expected for Toyota to attempt to protect their financial interests.

What do you mean "anymore"? Collective rule to fight contagious disease is literally as old as civilization. There are rules for it in the Old Testament.
I was referring to Hacker News' lack of support for IPv6, however it is nice to see that ipv6.watch does support it.

To elaborate: I feel that the irony comes from an apparent desire by this website's users towards supporting IPv6, as evidenced by a few articles about the topic on the first page today; Raising awareness of IPv6 support on a site that does not.
Lead tetraethyl is not elemental lead.

I think you are mixed up.

Lead tetraethyl (the component found in lewded gas) is easily absorbed, it even diffuses through skin to the blood!
I concure. Am down to 3 to 7 from 17 to 23 self rolled a day since maybe 15 years. Thin, long XXL filter, 6mm diameter. Should be two thirds of a commercial filter cigarette at most. Also with pauses of 3 to 5(sometimes even weeks) days without any, at all. I can live with that. The used papers play a big role also. I like them slow burning, but not slow like the transparent stuff one would use for a joint/reefer. Tried vaping. It's not the same.
That is not an argument. It is extremely plausible because the epidemic started next to the lab. Look at the size of China. Take a map of the country and throw a dart at it. Now consider the probability of it landing within 1 mm of Wuhan. Let's call this dart Occam's fléchette.
You have to prove natural infection, and at least 2/3rd of those natural infections never got tested at all, and then there's the piles of people who swear up and down they caught it in November of 2019 and other self-diagnosis.

And the virus is basically just an mRNA vaccine with extra stuff to self replicate. The virus RNA genome is its mRNA so its the same thing as the mRNA vaccine. You know you can beat the vaccine because you know you beat the virus. You might still benefit from antibodies to the rest of the genome, which is great. Natural immunity just comes at the cost of a pile more side effects and a bunch of actually self-replicating virions that might put you in the hospital if things spiral out of control.
I appreciate your response, even if my question was perhaps 50% rhetorical.

Of course I can understand the psychological part of it, but that's what I contest here.

You write an insightful message in a forum. Perhaps 5,000 people read it, 100 upvote it, 200 downvote it, and let's say that 5 reply with disagreement or trolling.

So in the end you find yourself frustrated with the 100 downvotes and the 5 trolls. It's irrational.

I can understand how people who profit from likes, upvotes and comments in forums and social media can care about their "Internet points". But for an individual person to care if their post has any kind of vote or to track the number of likes, sorry, I don't think that rationalizing it is any beneficial, productive, sensical.
But isn't it true that most cases don't result in serious infections, regardless of vaccination status? I recall reading at one point that 80% of infections are asymptomatic or very mild.
Exactly. This is idiocy. There is already Delta-plus and other variants.
It is now spreading more in the vaccinated than the unvaccinated.

> Can you articulate in a scientific manner why an adenovirus would be treated differently as it relates to the creation of vaccines and the body's response to them?

For whatever reason that is not the prevailing method when it comes to regulating new medical interventions.
I think we're mostly in agreement?

When you disable wifi/bluetooth via the control center, pop-up text appears saying exactly what that means. I'm not sure how they could make that more clear. It still may not be your (or my) desired default, but I at least understand the reasoning.
In Germany the Paul Ehrlich Institute has received 871 reports of deaths after vaccination.

Most of them are from elderly people, but there are also a bunch of young people who have likely died from side effects. PEI reports 21 people under 40 who died from thrombosis after Astra Zeneca.

Biontech and Moderna had other side effects (myocarditis for young men), and also a bunch of young deaths.

Johnson is not common enough in Germany to make any reasonable judgements.

Severe side effects (not deaths) are around 0,2 per 1000 shots. (reported side effects, actual number may be higher)

Probably around the same time you can shit yourself and walk around the office like that all day everyday.
I think those utilitarians are called "public health officials" and I do trust their ability to estimate- not fully calculate- those costs.
You're probably right. I think I will honestly just get a landline phone with a few different extensions and a tape recorder. 1st extension for closest family, another for friends, another for business and so on. Corded of course. Patiently awaiting the day I see "Launch HN: <Company> (YC 2030) – never have to deal with text messages again"
Nope. Ever thought about gardening instead? ;-)
However there are many more studies of variations for vaccinated people than for natural immunity. It may be because the laboratories themselves are interested commercially for those studies, while natural immunity doesn't bring them any commercial benefit, but this doesn't change from the information we have right now.

So TL;DR, it is just better to be vaccinated right now.
I would guess that the first two chapters would be useful.

Honestly, if your first thought isn't "oh wow, I would love to learn how to plan out IPv6 networks", it might not be worthwhile.
> If they force you to disclose doesn't that break HIPPA?

No, HIPAA prohibits, say, your insurer or medical provider (even if it is employer-funded) from disclosing info without your consent, including to your employer.

It does not prohibit the employer asking and you disclosing it. Nor does it prohibit adverse consequences by the employer for your failure to disclose, or for the facts thereby disclosed (though, for some medical information, the ADA or other law might do that.)
It might be because of all the reverse-osmosis and other purifying processes that give you some ratio of ultra-pure-water:slightly-unpure-water, which gets even more unbalanced for the smaller node sizes.
First off, congrats on graduating and getting your career started. You have some exciting times ahead of you.

I've had quite a few friends and family members ask me the same general questions, which became the basis for a book I wrote titled "Junior to Senior: Career Advice for the Ambition Programmer." I'm currently revising it and it's due to be published later this year.

https://www.holloway.com/b/junior-to-senior

While you'll certainly learn new technologies and sharpen your technical skills in your first role, there are plenty of other things you'll need to learn to navigate your career. Things like:

* Self-confidence
* Learning to work with your manager
* Recovering from mistakes
* Reading unfamiliar code
* Ways to add value
* Identifying and reducing risk
* Communicating effectively

My advice to you: Don't put off the soft-skills until later in your career. There's a lot more to being a software engineer than just writing code.
She's lying. Notice how she links to no actual datasets.

On the contrary, all the big datasets show clearly a long lasting, low risk of reinfection for the recovered. Here, I include an actual dataset (https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.03.06.21253051v...) unlike "Virologist Sabra Klein".
Because your risk becomes everyones risk. The vaccine is becoming less and less effective against variants and people talk as if dying or hospitalizations is the only bad outcome. Long term health problems from even 'mild' COVID infections is a thing and the efficacy of vaccines at preventing that is not clear.

So getting a vaccine does not make the vaccinated isolated from the risks the unvaccinated choose. Your choices affect what I can do and the risks to my health.
Tesla Moving Out of the Mall and into the Parking Lot in Retail Shake-Up
Wikipedia is cool (so is stack overflow). However I prefer to engage in arguments that do actually terminate at some point.

Actually, though I think there's something to be gained by reading something that is explicitly phrased as a back and forth argument, rather than an explanation. Arguments between informed people usually bring up objections that I wouldn't have thought of, or that somebody writing an encyclopedia entry wouldn't want to deal with.

Though many airplanes can, the working airplanes (that burn a lot of fuel) mostly cannot and if the FBO is faced with being able to sell fuel to all airplanes or just some with a tank and dispenser, it's a pretty easy call.

The promise of G100UL is that that FBO can (eventually) sell this fuel to all gasoline-fueled airplanes.

The regulations seem reasonable. They are limited to regulating the amount of power used while desktop systems are at idle, not while "in use". They take into account the potential for accessories to be added by the end user, the "Expandability Score". This means "bigger" computers can consume more power at idle. The CEC defines 4 idle states; short-idle, long-idle, sleep and off. Each state is well defined -

* Short Idle is system in S0 state, display on, no applications loaded or running, after a fresh re-boot.

* Long Idle is the same as Short Idle except the screen is off.

* Sleep is Power State S3 (or equivalent if the system doesn't directly implement S3).

The regulations also specify the required default timeouts for transitioning between idle states, e.g. the screen should be turned off after 10 minutes without user input, it should enter S3 after 15, etc. These don't apply if the system ships without an OS installed, they explicitly say that an end-user is free to change the defaults.
Well, NO, lead tetraethyl is not naturally present. It's a human-made metallo-organic molecule.
The FDA decides what counts as an emergency, and if they wanted to manipulate the approval process then that would be the least of our problems.

Further, if we can't react to a pandemic which could be even quicker spreading and more deadly than covid because we're unable to lower the risk tolerance for a cure/vaccine then that seems to be complete against any common sense.
