> Public health officials have the goal of maximizing public health

Partially correct, I'd argue they also have the goal of minimizing risk to themselves (things like criticism of policy, like what happened in Sweden, or anything that could jeopardize funding or tenure of the leadership). They are not there to make bold decisions, they are there to minimize flak. Also, like all bureaucracies, they have the goal of growing their influence and size.

But even that aside, "maximizing public health" is not the only goal function we have, and when policy decisions are made like that is all we care about, it disenfranchises and discriminates against people who rightfully have competing priorities. This is ine reason why we have a constitution, and there are limits on what government can do. No one entity maximizing it's one goal should be able to trump all other natural rights that we have. Additionally, this is the danger of technocracy overall. The technician is not a politician who negotiates compromise between public good and individual ambitions. He works only to maximize what is in his purview. As such, he's great to listen to for input, but should never be given free reign to dictate peoples behavior.
Can you comment on experience (or contact me) regarding implementation efficiency? We have recently implemented task-based parallelism in the J language with openMP[0]. Improvements or critiques are appreciated. SIMD instructions there have been coded directly rather than via pragmas.

i think that also can be interpreted as "it is the modern human and Neandertals hybrid which happened to be the winning combination that took over the planet" or "interbreeding with Neanderthals is what saved modern humans after the genetic bottleneck of 70K year ago" or "the modern humans who didn't bred with Neandertals got selected out".
Andrej's claim isn't that you need those maps, it's that using those maps is how today's LIDAR approach work.

Without the maps, you'd need to rely pretty heavily on vision to do the right thing.

What LIDAR gives you is a very accurate point cloud to work from. You can get a point cloud from vision (and indeed, that's what telsa is doing) but it won't be near as accurate as LIDAR is by default.
Well, what counts as existential? The paper isn't suggesting that climate change will cause humans to go extinct. There's no doubt that it will have very bad consequences if not mitigated, but to a lot of people, being unable to eat meat would itself be a climate disaster. This is kinda what I was getting at - their analysis of what we "have" to do has smuggled in a lot of assumptions about human desires which aren't universally shared.
Good point: I'm hit or miss at the end of the day: sometimes my brain is fried an hour before the end, and I need to switch to what I term "general housekeeping" tasks. Other days I'm so engrossed in a project that I have to set an alarm to make sure I leave early enough to not put all of the child care tasks on my partner, who usually gets home a bit earlier.
> The problem is, you don't know what you don't know until you break that barrier.

How does that follow?

There's two barriers. Knowing enough to look up the details, and knowing enough to vomit it on a whiteboard.

Now the latter is much more impressive, but the improvement in useful output for even the highest tiers of devs is marginal in my experience.

After all, what the average CS grade knows after 4 years isn't theoretical physics or PhD level CS something. It's not unknowns unknowns all the way down that you need years of study to get to the surface of what is unknown.

Rio Tinto (and the complicit governments of Australia and New Zealand) should give the land back to the indigenous people it was stolen from. An apology is clearly not enough. They have proven to be poor stewards of their holdings.
That helps with my final point but #1 and #2 are deal killers as well.

This also places an undue burden on the payment receiver as they have to get into the business of running enterprise audits to find out who is using what.

> how you would feel if you were an Arab living in Palestine?

Terrible. Either I'd feel terrible because I was oppressed by the Israelis or less likely I guess because I realized I was oppressed by Hamas and Iran.

Again: I see both sides. If everyone here where overwhelmingly denying Israel ever did anything wrong I could play another role.

That never happens though so I am relegated to always inform people about basic pro Israel facts.

A blow-torch works just great too, just the kind you'd use for a creme brulee to carbonize the stuck stuff (usually cheese for me) and scrape it off.
Have also made it back ashore when swimming by myself in the see after getting a pretty bad cramp in one of my calves. Lots of swearing as well, went into floating position on my back and tried to stretch it out to no avail. Finally just kind of half floated half swam back over what felt like 10 minutes or so until I could call out to a friend. Have stayed a bit closer to people after that
Everyone is free to get the vaccine and the risk reward profile varies between ages.

My body my choice but not for experimental vaccines?

Fauci admitted yesterday infection and transmission are still possible in vaccinated. CDC renewed their indoor mask guidance because this is now evident.

So if both groups can transmit, what does vax status matter personally to you? They aren't even a large enough size to overwhelm health care in most areas that have access to the vaccine.
Thank you for this. I am a lifelong swimmer but never a lifeguard. Took me a couple tries to get an idea what to look for and then I could reliably pick up on the cues. However, that's with someone staring at the video closely; I can only imagine trying to keep up a scan through a long hot day in the sun with hundreds of people swimming.
And yet it's the US that has >5% inflation rate and the long bond around 1%. Every country can become a banana republic, you know.

Also, I agree with the consensus on the risk level ordering, but it's not just the risk, it's the reward too. High priced securities offer no (or even negative) reward in the optimistic outcome scenario.
> Situational socializing can still be fun and it doesn't have to be this thing where you are going to have these people be your best man at your wedding.

Absolutely agree. This is why I mean more specifically that this shouldn't be relied upon entirely. If you stop being in the office, and your social life goes away, then maybe too much is coming from your work social life, whereas my opinion is just that it should be an augment. You may not need your casual work buddies to come to your wedding, but you probably want someone to come to your wedding, and it probably needs to come from somewhere else.

It's just a common thing I've heard—from particularly 9 to 5, somewhat more socially anxious people—that they have no idea how to make friends now that they realize their work friends don't necessarily want to go have a picnic. Work tends to usurp their personal lives in this sense, though I don't necessarily mean it to be so dramatic.

> That's an interesting approach - how do you even do that though?

It takes time and breadth. It's probably a better idea in general to just meet people through other means, but the big thing is simply forming enough of a connection with a small subset of your colleagues that they'd invite you to a party or something, then you might get to meet some other people, of which a small subset of those will vibe well enough with you.

It's just like meeting the friends of your current friends in that if they move away, you have redundancy. You wouldn't want 10/11 of your social group dependent on that one person you met them through, but that one person might give you exposure to the other 10. Ideally you get to a point with the other 10 where you'd invite them regardless of your first friend's availability.

Seeing snow when your eyes are closed or in darkness is fairly typical from what I understand. Visual snow as a diagnosis is visible at least in reading-level light and against light backgrounds.

I see snow against all colours in a typical office environment. It’s less noticeable in daylight but still there.
Several European countries have a white or yellow reflective border around traffic lights to help with recognition, especially for those who might be color-blind: with a bright rectangle, it's easier to see the position of which light is lit, rather that only rely on the color.

A couple decades later, I'm now noticing some traffic lights in the US starting to gain this feature. I'm sure it will help with machines trying to parse the traffic light state... and also humans.

I don't think that the suggestion was to tell people what to do, but to replace the downvote button with multiple buttons that represent different reasons one would downvote. One of the buttons could be "this is wrong and stupid."

If you're intentionally trying to restrict expression by eliminating options you don't like, you might as well just remove downvotes. If I'm reading it correctly, this suggestion would just add more signal to downvotes (even if irt karma they were all the same.)

You're leaving out a key aspect, which is "while it's happening". My mentally ill friends are some of the most introspective, self-aware people I know. They understand exactly what happens to them and how it affects them. They just don't have the ability to do a lot about it while it's happening.

I’m sure there’s some software that works on percent of sales or something. But it’s not common. I’ve worked on some fixed cost, percent value contracts and they had very distinct parameters unique to the contract and they weren’t very good for generalization (eg, “your foo process costs $50M today, I’m going to deliver changes that reduce that cost, I want 50% of the cost reduction” with tons of pages of caveats and details and stuff).

I’m not saying that PostOpen is impossible or can never be used anywhere. Just that it sucks and is not feasible for broad use.
I appreciate where you are coming from but I have seen cast iron that folks "did what they wanted with it" and it wasn't pretty. From rusted through holes to massive pitting that made them food safety nightmares.

Reinforcement Learning Through Theory-Based Modeling Exploration and Planning
A professor I know solves the quantum mechanical equations of metabolites to predict their MR spectrum to optimize their pulse sequence, and then does it directly on patients.

His QC simulation code in matlab would write the output of each iteration to a file because he didn’t optimize the object sizes. A simulation that should take an hour now takes 20 lol. It’s probably like in the Sherlock show how Holmes says he doesn’t want to waste neurons memorizing constellations.
Hang in there? Maybe you can find a primary care doc who can write you a prescription to hold you over for 3 months… Hopefully a psychiatrist will have a cancellation you could grab sooner.
My 2 cents: If your home has a garden, consider planting some *thorny* bushes. People love fertile and friendly varieties with high yields. To you, thorns might seem like an unnecessary annoyance, but plenty of birds and small animals like to build nests there. Little birds are often ambushed by bigger ones, like magpies or jays. A nesting box can be taken over by a woodpecker, who is very happy to widen the entrance. But both of them will stay away from a wicked mass of thorns. Birds nesting there won't be the same species as in a nesting box, but filling much the same role in the ecosystem (for example lesser whitethroat).

I think you could present medical records, same as how it works currently for public school vaccination mandates.

It's weird how many people are acting like this is some bizarre, novel thing. We've had mandatory vaccines for public schooling for decades now. Vaccines are also commonly required for some types of visas/immigration. Requiring vaccination in the interest of public health is not new.
Well, this is bascially what DDD proposes. To write code that reflects the domain, so even your manager understands it. But for some reason, when you call it by a name, people start saying you don’t need those dogmatic patterns. That’s my point.
1.1 billion fully vaccinated, maybe a few dozen deaths can be contributed.

200 million reported covid cases, if we go with typical estimates of 2-5X unreported, then we get to a similar number of just over a billion infected, with 4.2 million deaths, not to mention all the nasty "long covid" (hate the expression, btw) cases that are probably higher than that.

Those are facts.

You can say, without evidence, that the vaccines will cause your head to explode in 10 years, but I can say the same thing about Covid infections.

The reality is that people are still going to do those things on a global scale regardless of what some people do. Solutions have to take human behavior on a that scale into account. 50 years of thinking about the problem while technology improves and society adapts is reason for hope. Maybe in that time a lot more people will adopt a standard of living you suggest as part of that adaptation (with cities adapted to suit that lifestyle), while renewable energy completely replaces fossil fuels, and things like carbon capture become a reality, along with tree planting initiatives and other ideas being tossed around know to mitigate climate change.

> ROCm from AMD has its restrictions, but... it really is easier to program than OpenCL. Its a superior model: having a single language that supports both CPU and GPU code is just easier than switching between C++ and OpenCL (where data-structures can't be shared as easily).

Small nitpick but while aircraft engines cannot catastrophically fail at 460F, no one should be flying them that hot. Its basically guaranteed to shorten the TBO on the engine that way.

When I was flying a turbocharged cirrus (notoriously hot running engine) we always kept the cylinder heads to 380F. It limited our climb performance but was so much better for the engine.
Their argument is that (a) historically, to reach people interested in cats you would advertise in publications about cats and so (b) that it is now possible to advertise to an NYT reader while they browse another site hurts the NYT.

This is wrong: sites that provide general high-quality journalism do not give a strong signal about the user's interests. If I'm reading an excellent, well researched article about the origins of the fire crisis in the American West, there is no strong commercial tie-in. Highly commercial journalism is in good shape, it's local and in-depth generic reporting that's struggling.

Additionally, advertisers will pay far more to advertise on a prestigious site than to advertise to the same users elsewhere. The article is worried about something that high paying advertisers aren't interested in, because they care about prestige and association, and not just which particular users see things.

Also, your follow up questions sound exactly like the kind of questions an engineer who makes an Android phone would ask and not a product person who understands an average user and their expectations.
