Where does Dr. Paul's argument that the US funded that lab, and the lab's work was not allowed to be funded, go wrong?
Fauci holds enormous power on how research money is granted or withheld. You're going to hear very few professional scientists, which desperately need grant money, speak against Fauci. That is until Fauci is removed from his position of power.

I'm not following the Fauci situation closely either. But there are scientists of the opinion that the Wuhan lab, partly funded by US money via Fauci, was playing with fire. For example, in this tread someone else posted (in support of Fauci) an article that contains this fragment:

> Paul cited Richard Ebright, a professor of chemistry and chemical biology at Rutgers University and a critic of gain-of-function research, who disagrees with the NIH. Ebright has said that the EcoHealth/Wuhan lab research “was — unequivocally — gain-of-function research.”

They could, but again it's not just about the API, the client itself must also be secue enough. That means enforcing security in some way to third parties, or just blocking them until they've solved all issues.

This is silly. That's like saying that speed limits don't work because everybody goes over them. Even if people don't 100% comply with standards, the fact that they exist reigns in peoples' behavior more so than if there wasn't one at all.

> An EV is much less convenient than a conventional vehicle

Probably not true for a lot of people. I’d hit range limits maybe one or two days a year. In exchange I can have my car “full” all the time. It cuts out a lot of trips to the gas station, which aren’t always convenient.
If anyone is interested in number theory and would like to help some incarcerated people that are working on a number theory paper:

I'm a director of the Prison Math Project: http://prisonmathproject.org/

They have previously co-authored some papers from within jail eg

"Linear Fractional Transformations And Nonlinear Leaping Convergents Of Some Continued Fractions"

"Math And Art In Prison: A Collaborative Effort Across The Ocean"

please reach out if any interest in helping them.
I don't really understand why not use it on desktop though (besides the fact there are not much relevant desktop apps available). According to my feel QNX 6 was by far the best OS I ever ran on my desktop. Fast as hell, ubreakably reliable, visually beautiful and featuring an awesome Visual RAD C++ app builder out of the box. Ok, there are not much apps and games - that's a wicked circle.

But what seems really weird to me is why do nuclear power plants and critical oil infrastructure (as hacked recently) use Windows when there is QNX.
If this theory is true I guess it means she died at around 100, which is still honourable.

It would have been interesting if she had lived to 120 like a real supercentenarian, which means the fake age of 142. Then at least we would have been sure that something's off.

> Journalism very much has the idea of protecting their sources. The NYT, for whatever reason, didn't feel like protecting Scott.

He wasn't a source, he was a subject.

Think of it this way: if the NYT was writing a story about Trump, is he a source they should protect? No, he's the subject: they might give him a chance to comment, but they're not going to let him dictate their coverage. A source would be (for instance) some White House staffer that gives an account of some non-public discussion Trump was part of, and who could expect reprisal for the act of giving that account.

IIRC, Metz learned Alexander's name independently of Alexander (not surprising because he linked it to his pseudonym himself), so Alexander was not the source and the NYT had no reasonable obligation to him to hide it.

The great thing about social media is you cannot ret-con a narrative. It was very much an attempted coup. Failing doesn't change the intent.

That's why it was an "attempted" coup. Also, do you think if Trump actually was against the capital riot, the response would've been delayed by hours? Really? _Really_?

Per your original post, _one of us_ is definitely recounting events based off of a specific political alignment, but it's certainly not me.

> The climate doesn't care about per capita.

If you don't want to take per-capita emissions into account, and want to look at absolute numbers, then the US has an even smaller carbon budget to work with - and its way exceeding it.

But okay, let's look at per-capita development times quality of life, instead. (China is ~15% behind the US on the latter - does that mean that its per-capita budget should be dropped by a comparative 15%? It's still doing well by that metric.)

You must realize that development is only possible because of access to energy, services, and material goods. Cut the energy, transportation, and services available to the average American by a factor of 3, as a proxy for bringing it's emissions profile down to China's, and tell me - what will happen to its quality of life?

(My prediction is - a sharp decline, followed by a bloody revolution.)

Not to call anyone out but examples? Every time I look at packages I’m blown away by how much effort has gone into their docs. But people keep saying this kind of thing so there must be some packages they’re hitting that are under-documented.
It's worth noting too that that 4% diff is equally distributed across the genome.

Honey I shrunk the pooled SMD--Critical appraisal of meta analyses. [2015,pdf]
These toolbars were usually bundled with legit software (Heck, even Java installed Bing toolbar..) behind dark patterns where a computer beginner would, understandably, not realize they were also installing something else.

As long as the dialog for unlocking your phone would clearly state the risks and what it does, unlike those toolbars upon installation, I think it would totally be OK.

Imagine if you couldnt install Linux on any PC because Dell didnt give you the keys to prevent you from hurting yourself. Or Apple didnt allow sudo in macOS. Seems kinda absurd right? Yet this is the standard for phones.

Also Id like to point out that Android allows installation of external APKs (after activating) and it didnt lead to a super increase in malware, as user still prefer the Play Store, and APK are usually left for the more technically inclined user for niche purposes or often times Region lock circumventing.
Just for additional context: until around 2016, there was a FedRAMP requirement that services be run on DNSSEC-signed zones. They rescinded that requirement --- they tried mandating DNSSEC and decided, you know what? nah.

Two other big industry-wide things that happened vis a vis DNSSEC:

1. All the mail providers banded together and came up with an alternate SMTP transport security standard, MTA-STS, that says explicitly that it exists because nobody wants to deploy DNSSEC.

2. The DNSSEC people and the browser/TLS people got together and proposed a DNSSEC stapling mechanism as a TLS extension. That stapling --- which Geoff Huston once wrote was an existentially important feature for DNSSEC, since DNSSEC queries routinely fail when made behind random CPE equipment that won't forward weird-looking DNS messages --- failed and was withdrawn.

There are basically no positive signals with respect to DNSSEC deployment. We're belaboring it; your comment isn't really about DNSSEC. I'm just saying: even if you're very, very diligent about security, it's unlikely that DNSSEC would be a high priority item. :)

> If you aren't top 5% (~1900 FIDE) within the first year of starting to play, you don't have the talent

People will think this sounds insane, but it's so true. Honestly top 5% even sounds a bit low.

Everything gets exponentially harder the higher up you get. If you're not dominating immediately you're quite literally never going to reach the very top (Like >0.1% kind of top).

The caveat to this is that it's a year of dedicating yourself to the thing, not doing it on and off casually for a year.

Your example will throw a KeyError if "input" doesn't contain "foo", and an AttributeError if "foo" is some unexpected data type that doesn't have keys().
The implementation is in Haskell, which makes sense, but after looking at the code, I don’t think my Haskell skills are good enough to work on the implementation.

I think it is safe to say when both players have had the same level of training and same level of interest that the better player has better analytical ability. I can't see why else there would be a difference in chess ability at that point.
So someone discovered "leverage", and is convinced it's free money, which it basically is until the tables turn very quickly and you lose your shirt, a story which has been repeated ad infinitum for literally thousands of years.
> Honda says their upcoming generation is no more expensive to manufacture than an ICE vehicle.

A hydrogen vehicle from Honda (or Toyota) is an EV (electric motor, lithium ion battery) with an expensive fuel cell ("weird battery") and expensive fuel tank tacked on (and maybe missing an electric plug). An admission that they've got the cost of Hydrogen cars down to the same costs an ICE vehicle is an underhanded admission that they can build EV cars cheaper than ICE.

(The problem is with hydrogen vehicles. It's a funny red herring to just producing good cheap EVs.)

I doubt Houston suburbs will ever replicate a European walkable city. Europe had a heatwave recently and thousands died. Houston deals with that sort of temperature every summer. Then there's the humidity.

Meanwhile business offices in Houston continue to be aggressively air-conditioned, filled with people wearing full suits and ties, in blind imitation of European culture.
I just shopped around for an EV and Toyota had no compelling offer at all. Nothing, zilch, nada.

And for the first time - after having a 1984 Ford Escort as my first ride - I decided to go with a Ford.
They have the first real competitor to Tesla with the Mach-E.

With the Lightning coming out soon, the next generation of EVs with high speed charging arriving in Fall, there's a clear signal that EVs are the future.

And if you've ever done a test drive in a Tesla or Mach-E, you will hopefully disagree. These cars are not only practical, but plain fun!

I think it could be really amazing for some of your really big maps if you could walk into a room and go "whoa, that's a seriously detailed map" and then get handed the magnifier and go even deeper. Even if you only had super-resolution data for some of the big features stitched in.
> An EV is much less convenient than a conventional vehicle... Once electric vehicles can charge in comparable times to gas for comparable miles, then we can talk...

I wish this argument would just die. It's so ignorant and assine. The convenience is different, not less.

I haven't had to stop at a gas station to fuel up either of my cars since Nov 2018. I haven't used a charger outside of my home since last August to charge my Nissan Leaf, and in 2020 I only used chargers twice. That's 2 times since Nov of 2019 on a vehicle with an 80 mile range.

Our Model 3 was driven across country and kept time with a box truck moving all of our belongings.

I plug my cars in when I need a charge at home. I don't have to run out for gas the night before a trip or on the way. I don't have to make planned or unplanned stops at gas stations. I don't have to go to gas stations at all.

But EVs are less convenient because you can imagine scenarios in your head.

Not in IT, but Germany has quite a few market leaders in "old tech": Cars, logistics (DHL, Schenker), retail (Aldi, Lidl), and a whole lot of B2B niche products.

IT isn't a fair comparison, no country in the world can compete with FAANG right now, that's hardly Germany's fault. And still, there's SAP and Deutsche Telekom. Telekom has 50% of Google's revenue. Sure, the market cap is another story, but still.
Only the eventual outcome of this was not an accident.

Another train caught up with this runaway train, coupled to it, attached the air brake hoses, and applied the brakes.

This slowed the train to a crawl. Then an engineer was able to jump aboard and cut the power.

I feel like the pictures shown on the article demonstrate the opposite of the author theory.

When the author writes things like "undeniable", the resemblance is more questionable than undeniable when he tries to match the pictures of Yvonne with the ones of the 122 years old women.

Moreover in such a rich family in France, changing identity like this would have been spotted really quickly.
Handy for testing that your code doesn't have any endian bugs that might crop up if someone tried compiling it on older RISC hardware?

Or perhaps very slightly more efficient networking code, since big endian is the default order for many operations there?

I think it is an advantage, at least, for businesses which do a type of work which doesn’t require physical presence, and hires people who can function productively when remote.

USDC is attested monthly. It is not audited.

> Top five accounting services firm Grant Thornton LLP issues attestations each month on the US dollar reserves that back the USDC tokens in circulation.

Attestations were never intended to be used in this way, and are, in this situation, meaningless. The only reasonable purpose for these attestations is to confuse people who mistakenly conflate them with audits.

The fact that USDC is resorting to this behaviour rather than performing audits is not meaningless, however: it's a substantial red flag.
I have an M1 MacBook Air and I love it. But it's no replacement for my Threadripper 1950X / RTX 3080 for work/gaming.

Sure, there are folks working on getting Linux working on the M1, but there's no guarantee that Apple will let you keep running/installing Linux.

Worse: this is one of the most discriminatory issues in the criminal justice system. The prosecutor can and will use that "evidence" unless and until the defence challenges it. But poor people with overworked lawyers don't have the time to challenge anything so they go down based on BS.
