Yup, as I type ( and { and [ and " and manually close them in every other language and inevitably turn that stuff off if the IDE has it enabled. vim default has enough support -- when I type ) et al., it highlights the matching opening. Typing '%' in command mode jumps to the corresponding open/close bracket. Occasionally if I know I'm done with a function, and have a bunch of closing parens to insert, I'll use slimv's ctrl+x+0 to close them all for me. I'm a fan of rainbow parens which makes things nicer to look at too, but really, this Lisp meme becomes true after not very long: https://www.thejach.com/imgs/lisp_parens.png Or at least one tunes them out, just like one does with the syntactic noise in other languages. Editing them is natural.

Speaking of noise, here's some out of context JS code from the first random file I opened in a really old project:

}
});
}
).on('error', function(e) { console.log('Error: ' + e); response.json({error: 'data_fetch_error'}, {}, 400); }).end();
}).then(function(next, urlstr) {

Yup, all of those () and {}s and commas and semicolons and single quotes were inputted manually. I say to my editors, "just let me type".

For Lisp, "sensible editor support" to me means something like slime support that enables REPL development. Lacking that in editors besides emacs (or not knowing about the support for alternate editors) has probably hurt adoption, sure, but I don't think the presence or absence of other editing tools that most every editor has (like keyword highlighting and other colors, auto-indentation, auto-completion, auto-bracket insert, intelli-sense stuff...) is a factor.
If you're that concerned about getting the "wrong" vaccine, you could just lie about your race when you sign up (of course, that would only deepen the racial divide in vaccination statistics)
Make a list of the companies/positions you would like to work at, with the crappy/boring ones at the bottom. Apply for interviews in some of the later and record them in video. Fail their tests but get to the end. Deeply study the topics of the tests. Apply for the interesting jobs in ascending order.
Sure it was about slavery as the wedge issue over which to decide whether you can leave the union. This sort of reactionary rhetoric just skirts over the surface.

It's not like the confederacy was fighting for slavery and to be part of the union. Both Kentucky and Delaware were happy with the status quo. The confederacy wanted both slavery and to leave the union, which they perceived to be their right.

The federal government at the time was much smaller than the current one and much less empowered.
Look away is the most solid advice here. Pain from vaccination (at least immediate pain) is mostly in our heads. I hate needles but I always tell about it to the person giving me the shot (or take blood) and look away. If you ever got stung by a bee or got a paper cut, those are probably a thousand times more painful and you don't even see those coming to be prepared.
Yes, it is really bad. A government welding people into their homes is bad, no matter the situation. I am surprised there are people in the civilised world for whom this is not obvious.

T cell responses are important for viral infections. However, we see that T-cell responses are significantly decreased in vaccine group, compared to natural immunity.
This isn't a medical procedure. You are certainly not allowed to make someone go through a medical procedure, since, you know, it doesn't affect you. Not being vaccinated affects everyone, so your choice of whether you get it or not is now going to have consequences on what you can do publicly. I've still not heard a single good argument for not vaccinating despite reading most anti-vax comments on this post.
Volume aside, a lot of the annoyance comes from the unnatural sound of four motors running at slightly different speeds, going in and out of tune with one another.

I really have to wonder why Apple chose to do this.

As far as I know, this kind of scanning is not legally mandated. So, either they think that this will truly make the world a better place and are doing it out of some sense of moral responsibility, or they've been pressured into it as part of a sweetheart deal on E2E ("we won't push for crypto backdoors if you'll just scan your users' phones for us"). Either way it doesn't thrill me as a customer that my device is wasting CPU cycles and battery life under the presumption that I might possess data my current jurisdiction deems illegal.

For all the acclaim privacy-forward measures like GDPR get here, I'm surprised there isn't more outright repudiation of this frankly Orwellian situation.

Landing pages are so common now that I'm skeptical. A good portion of Product Hunt tools do this.

I'd rather see a survey form than a landing page. If you want to collect e-mails, be honest about it. When a page has a sign up button that goes into a "waitlist", I assume it's bullshit. It falls into the overpromise, underdeliver category and I won't buy it when it comes out.
Both are true. The original TypeScript v1 was a lot more like C#-in-JS and was very class-oriented, however over the years the type system has grown into a mature ML-like structural type system as a side effect of trying to type the wide variety of dynamic JS out there.

Anybody who last looked at TypeScript a few years ago and dismissed it needs to have another look.
The replies are so typical of these discussions. The media float a narrative without bothering to support it with any evidence. When someone actually looks and finds the easily available evidence says the exact opposite, that evidence is attacked and nitpicked as not rigorous enough to overturn the completely unsupported narrative. Where was all this skepticism before?
The phrase “establishment of religion” has a specific meaning: official state churches that existed at the time: https://constitutioncenter.org/interactive-constitution/inte...

Jefferson was a Francophile that had a radically different view of the first amendment than the other founding fathers. The constitution meant to create a society of religious pluralism, not French style secularism. See: https://scholarship.law.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?articl...

Not true. Delta is showing increasingly worse numbers for younger people. Some children's hospitals are full from it. If you have another argument besides that one let's discuss.

You do whatever you have to - within the law - to provide a defense for your client, and you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. I also like to think they have a keen sense of the absurd.
A reasonable hypothesis, though I somewhat doubt it.

Blue-green algae are aqueous. Diurnal temperature changes in even reasonably shallow bodies of water are fairly minimal.

Early Earth had much lower solar insolation than today (by about 25%), though an atmosphere largely comprised of greenhouse gasses (CO2, CH4). That would probably have also had a levelling effect on any short-cycle termperature variation.
The uncertainty at the beginning likely helped them. At the beginning it was thought of being another SARS there while later in the west it was downplayed with the narrative of it being “like the flu”.

Death tolls in China were covered up according to citizen media. There were reports of crematoriums running at full capacity in Wuhan in January 2020. It’s hard for people to die of covid if they haven’t even been tested.

Before Wuhan locked down and covid tests became a thing face masks became mandatory in public. Police would arrest people who refused to wear a mask. They were temperature checking people in their homes and in public and quarantining them in camps too. They didn’t have an issue with PPE because they soaked up supplies even going so far as to request citizens in other countries to buy up local supply.

While all their efforts have appeared to be effective their vaccine hasn’t been shown to be as effective as the alternatives so there is still a chance for things to go wrong though.

It is definitely not reasonable for a healthy young person who hasn't had COVID yet to skip out on the vaccine, given that the long term complications from COVID are almost certainly going to be worse than any (if that) associated with a vaccine, and getting COVID eventually is pretty much guaranteed now.
Yes vaccinated people can pass it on, but not as easily (study released today). Yes getting vaccinated will end the pandemic sooner because A) it won't be transmitted as much, and B) hospitals won't be at capacity for milder cases. Just get vaccinated
That is a big market, I believe.

>Well, mRNA vaccines have been in human clinical trials for over 10 years now, so if 10 years is your metric you may want to look in to that.

I've tried. I have not found any hard data from sources I would trust. I've found lots of opinions penned by people I have no reason to trust.
ID scans at bars have been normal for at least decade. Have you really never had your ID scanned? I find that hard to believe.

I hate it. There's no good reason to scan my ID when I'm very obviously of legal age. Some of the bars do this for tracking data and to sell your personal info. Some of the bars are lazy and it's a relatively straightforward way to validate your card.

There's a good reason to validate that I have a vaccine, though, because my presence there affects the life of the staff and other customers. I'm not giving up freedom here, because it's not my freedom to put others at risk, and they shouldn't have the freedom to put mine at risk.

Your slippery slope arguments are also really bad. You can already be (and already are) tracked by your cell phone at all times. We don't need vaccine checks to do it. If the scary government was going to come get you, they have more than enough at their disposal currently to do it.

That just raises more questions - do you have some complicated automatic battery swap system, or have an extra human on-board to manage the drones? At least if it was a person they could also load packages onto the drones as you drive, else you'd need to automate that as well.

Do you charge batteries on the van, or just swap trays of them each time you return to the depot?

How much of the van's internal volume are you trading for drone-related subsystems rather than cargo storage?

It seems impractical.
> Yes, this theory was always ridiculous. Like many other things we hear from the prestige media, it barely merits an eye-roll, let alone a full refutation. Nevertheless, I appreciate Bruenig taking the time.

I don't think that's fair. I find Bruenig's analysis reductive. It doesn't even look at Black vaccine hesitancy over time, which a halfway decent analysis would have done. What you see is that there is high hesitancy early on, and that hesitancy drops faster than many other groups as time progresses. It could be the case that skepticism, given the history of healthcare and the Black community, drove initial hesitancy, and then that waned as people saw millions of others do just fine. Bruenig's analysis would entirely miss that.

He also takes a huge leap in equating skepticism of healthcare more broadly in the Black community with skepticism of the vaccine in particular. There are so, so many assumptions he is just completely skating past here. E.g., it could entirely be the case that there is broad skepticism of healthcare in the Black community at all educational levels because of issues that persist to this very day (e.g. it's pretty well known that many people working in healthcare believe Black people are less susceptible to physical pain than white people). So, it's entirely plausible that you can start with a higher level of skepticism with respect to anything healthcare related within the Black community (e.g. because of both historical and/or current problems), but see decreasing vaccine hesitancy as education levels increase (e.g. because that correlates with better understanding of the vaccines and the trials it goes through). All of this would be entirely consistent with the data Bruenig presents, but would be entirely inconsistent with his conclusions.

What I am fundamentally getting at is that his analysis is reductive, and could potentially be explained by scenarios that are 100% counter to his conclusion.
Same here. I won't spend money anywhere where it seems likely that I'll have to encounter unvaccinated people, especially without masks. They can infect each other if they want, but leave me out.
This has already happened. There's a world organization distributing millions of vaccines, and soon billions.
Agreed! Employees have to realize this is a very unique opportunity where the Companies have lost much of the strong arm wrenching used by what Human Resources has become. (basically, a way for companies to remind employees they are number and replaceable at any second.)

Companies are terrified that employees will flex some of these desires and flexibilities as not benefits, but open to as many jobs as possible. It removes their ability to keep employees focused on groveling in appreciation to be allowed to be in their presence.

If they let this go, employees may begin looking around and realizing why are the top 1% being paid ridiculous salaries with millions of shares given annually while whinning to unions, employees and anyone who can hear they have to continually cut benefits, pensions (what are those?) to barely keep profitable. (Question how can foreign companies continue to pay good benefits, have employee long term retention, etc. and not have it cause such damage to company profits?)

Employees have been trained and brainwashed for so long that only a scant few find the behvior described above as bonkers. Rather most have grown numb and believe it is normal for companies to tell them they deserve only what the company decides to toss their way.

It is bonkers they are pulling that line out, unfortunately it works very time.
Sure now your only recklessly endangering those who can't get vaccinated and those who opt in. So maybe at steady state the numbers do work out in favour of it being less dangerous than driving proportionally(excluding the people who opt in to this danger). But you realise we're talking about driving, an activity that actually accomplishes something, as opposed to not getting vaccinated which accomplishes at most nothing. If driving accomplished nothing you can bet you wouldn't be able to do it in the city were you are involving others it'd be relegated to tracks.

> Sex is observed, not assigned

Various indicia are observed, sex (more accurately, “socially ascribed gender”, but the established terminology is “sex”) is assigned based on some subset of sex-related indicia.

The modern understanding of the distinction between sex, ascribed gender, and gender identity may be new, but the things themselves aren’t modern constructs. Biological sex (or at least the individual traits that make it up), socially ascribed gender, and gender identity have always existed.

I'm not sure what you are saying. But there are black people who are refusing the vaccine because of what the government has done to blacks in the past.
You say "caused", but it seems that the research points to a weak correlation at best. Given a potential incidence of 1 in 50,000 in a disease/condition which is hard to diagnose, I think this rather points out again how extraordinary sensitive the whole vaccination vigilance system is.

Given the increased focus on the Covid vaccines, correlations as these would have already been found.

> By the same logic brain effects of long COVID on asymptotic cases is impossible

No, not at all. The virus binds to ACE2 receptors on cells, where are all over you body and in your circulatory system. You could be infected and fight it off without acute symptoms and still have enough systemic damage from the virus and immune response to have lingering effects.

> when we don't even know the mechanism behind the long COVID sideffects

We do, it's cellular damage from the infection. This is well studies with the flu and various other viruses. What we don't know is why it seems to effect some people and not others, the risk factors, and we're still parsing through symptoms to put together a full picture. There's no mystery as to how this happens. When researchers say they don't know why brain fog is a symptom, it doesn't mean they have no clue how it happens.

> I'm saying given the surprising sideffects of COVID on asymptomatic cases it's not really unreasonable to check this kind of things

It isn't surprising though. Plenty of viruses can cause lingering systemic damage without sever acute symptoms. The long covid cases were appearing as early as late April 2020 in the US, and clearly wen't caused by the vaccines that weren't available for a year. This whole what if scenario is just baseless FUD.

if you have developed drones with the ability to return to a van and autonomously pick up the next package to deliver, picking up a battery at the same time shouldn't be a difficult step on top of that.

there's lots of things about drone delivery that seems impractical, but not sure that battery swaps are one of those things.
