It's about the overall system. If the man has a full sack, his body won't be utilizing its top-notch resources to replenish itself, making sure it is always at-the-ready. Once restocked, the resources devoted to that unique assembly line can be applied to repair and enhance operations.

Having to arm that legion of competitive swimmers is an energetic undertaking of no small measure and no small importance -- quite the opposite, actually. That is why fasting and exercise are effective ways to tamp down one's sexual impulses. Well, avoiding stimulation (visual and otherwise) can also help tame our more primal energies.

[[[ Also, the GP failed to mention exercising and avoiding the consumption of refined oils as other ways to keep the skin less clogged and infected. ]]]

Regardless, semen retention is a way for a man to keep his body burning less quickly through our molecular environment, both internally and externally. The old Taoist texts (IIRC) teach 60 or 80 drops of blood are required to produce a drop of semen, and some significant amount of food to create a drop of blood. Stem the loss and the pipeline backs up, in a good way, so long as the man doesn't become an unbearable ahole, but that's related to self-control via self-evolution of the ego combined with the amount of stimulation they must/choose-to endure.
This is a good answer. I've not been thinking in terms of two year olds - I've been assuming this debate is mostly about children who are elementary school and above.

One issue is that with exponential curves it's often difficult to make these big policy changes as local conditions change.

Sure in an ideal world as soon as hospitalizations or case rates went above some metric we'd introduce stricter local procedures, hopefully fast enough that the wave of hospitalizations 1-2 weeks later isn't too bad.

But so far it seems like we're too slow on that. Things get bad, then we start changing our behavior. Time matters and it's not binary. That's been the whole principle of managing this thing in the US at the beginning. If you let the spike get too big too quickly then it gets bad before we can take corrective action.

And how would we even manage changing these guidelines on a week-by-week basis in every zip code? How do you even disseminate that information to all businesses, citizens, parents?

Of course I don't think all restrictions make sense in all places, nor do I want them to go on forever. Vaccinations for a large majority of eligible individuals would go a long way to reducing spread and hospitalization load.

In theory we are trying to bide time until we get there (manageable COVID, not zero COVID) but in the US at least we're not heading towards "large majority" very quickly, and we are still having those exponential local spikes.
Could not proceed after the article, which is somehow actually really dang realistic.
It's so interesting to see how the pandemic hits different countries in different ways. This article talks about struggling bike shops. The truth couldn't be any more different in Germany. Bike shops were run over by customers because so many more people wanted to either go to work by bike instead of public transportation, or they had no work to do so they decided to go biking in their new spare time. Repair shops are super busy, but now there's a shortage in bike parts, too...
We're not planning to build something that's 600 feet long and costs hundreds of millions, we're building something that's 60 feet long and costs hundreds of thousands. Unmanned blimps of this size don't require the same amount of capital, so we can fly faster and get to market faster.

I once had a "Lead Frontend Developer" who mostly did HTML and CSS (and was quite good at it) and could get by with jQuery to do various visual effects. We had a large contract to maintain a site that used AngularJS, and he convinced all the higher-ups that writing all the frontend code was my job because "Angular is more of a backend thing."

I don't think I'd consider this guy a frontend developer given that he couldn't be bothered to learn a framework that falls within his job description. But we also had a UX team to actually design the visuals, so I don't think I'd put him in the designer camp with them either. What was he? "Lead CSS Guy?"

Doctors generally don't have doctorate degrees. That's a Ph.D which is a doctor of philosophy degree. A physician becomes a doctor by earning degrees as an M.D., doctor of medicine, or D.O., doctor of osteopathic medicine.

What you're describing is either an MD, a NP, or a traditional nurse/specialist.
The last part was a very nice touch
This thread is not discussing criminal invasion of privacy, but rather the more mundane "legally selling your info" invasions of privacy. Fortunately, that means we're working with a threat model don't include US citizens fleeing to other jurisdictions.

Illustrative example: Suppose I could get Visa to sign a contract that says they won't sell my personal info. The original parent asked why I would just "take their word" that they won't sell my info.

The answer to that query is that contracts or consumer protection laws with sufficiently punitive clauses are a perfectly fine mechanism.

You counter with Snowden. But... I'm not particularly worried about the CEO of Visa defecting to Russia so that he can tell the highest bidder how often I visit the liquor store. A sufficiently punitive contract with Visa prohibiting the sharing or sale of my information would likely be sufficient deterrent.

Now, figuring out how to get Visa to sign such a contract is difficult, of course. But the actual enforcement mechanism for mandating privacy is straight-forward and doesn't involve crypto foo nonsense.

But even if we were discussing criminal invasions of privacy, I'm not sure how digital tulips are supposed to prevent data exfiltration by an trusted insider. Or, for that matter, preventing the liquor store from selling exactly the same info as Visa by leveraging the facial recognition in their POS system.
Because the consequences of losing access to Twitter and your personal email are different, and we should treat them differently?

Email is much closer to a phone than say, Twitter or FB. Losing the ability to post on Twitter is annoying, but losing your email can have devastating consequences that OP delineated.
That line of thinking gets pretty interesting when you realize that African-Americans are one of the lowest vaccinated groups. Congratulations, you just reintroduced segregation.
That seems to be about making people pay for covid treatment, and unvaccinated people disproportionately requiring treatment.
You’re absolutely wrong about the last point. The people raising risks to childhood development from masking are serious people making serious arguments: https://healthpolicy.usc.edu/article/mandatory-masking-of-sc...

This is as an article by medical professors at USC and Stanford:

> At the same time, the long-term harm to kids from masking is potentially enormous. Masking is a psychological stressor for children and disrupts learning. Covering the lower half of the face of both teacher and pupil reduces the ability to communicate. In particular, children lose the experience of mimicking expressions, an essential tool of nonverbal communication. Positive emotions such as laughing and smiling become less recognizable, and negative emotions get amplified. Bonding between teachers and students takes a hit. Overall, it is likely that masking exacerbates the chances that a child will experience anxiety and depression, which are already at pandemic levels themselves.

I don’t know if you have young children, but facial expressions are a huge part of communication. My kids are constantly looking at my face to for “is this okay” signals. Kids learn to look at facial expressions of peers to understand what they’re thinking and feeling. There’s just tons and tons of research on this.

Masks for kids isn’t like masks for adults, where you can say “well even if they don’t work there’s no harm.” What we don’t have is research showing that wearing masks has persistent negative effects on kids, but based on what we do know that’s a real possible harm that has to be weighed against the possible benefits of masking.
> indebting himself, "to be sure he believes in his own idea".

Putting the French specific comment to one side because I don't have sufficient knowledge to comment, what I would say is that having "skin in the game" is no bad thing (it focuses your mind, and demonstrates your commitment to others).

That's one of the problems with the US funding scene.

On one side its great because people will throw obscene amounts of money at you if your marketing pitch sells well enough.

One the other hand, it does lead to the situation where your commitment to the business only goes so far because you've basically always got someone else picking up the tab.
It would only take a handful of transmissions to a community to have something like COVID spread like wildfire through the deer population. They may not interact with humans much, but only one carrier could infect several others and then that cascades to the entire population. Deer don't get vaccinated and don't wear masks.

The good news is that even if COVID is running rampant through the deer populations they shouldn't pass them on to humans very often, so if humans are good at identifying and stopping isolated outbreaks then we can live with the risk.
I don't understand why it took so long for them to build a prototype? 12 years?
Chickenpox _seems_ like a mild disease, until it develops into shingles, decades later. I sure wished I had gotten the chickenpox vaccine after I nearly lost my eye from shingles.
I was watching someone on PBS last week who claimed Pakistani intelligence created the Taliban and then fostered them into Afghanistan. Not to mention they pretty much hid Osama Bin Ladin for a decade or so.
+1 to those. I was shocked to actually have a repellent that really worked. When I bought two years ago, I had gotten a puppy and would work in my back yard so he and my other dog could hang around outside, chewing and messing around. Summer came and the mosquitoes were awful. Stick one of those under my chair, and I'd go from 10+ bites a minute to 1 bite per hour, if that.
TIL Microsoft/GitHub control NPM: https://github.blog/2020-03-16-npm-is-joining-github/

Impressive to think about how much data us developers are feeding them just by using NPM. Makes it super-easy for Microsoft to find other companies to buy based on package popularity, like how FB tracked users of their Onavo VPN to decide WhatsApp was a competitive threat worth USD $19B.
> What bull are you referring to?

The bull that was clearly quoted? "Influenza kills thousands of people under 18 every year". The linked data does not say that at all.

You're being difficult just to be difficult here.
The behavior of those in the former camp pushes me away from my medically hesitant "wait and see" position, into one of, frankly, staunch dismissal ...

You said you were less likely to get the vaccine because of how people in an out group were behaving. That's what I mean.
What are your goals? Where do you want to work?

General advise:

- Join clubs, be as active as you can be, but don't let your grades suffer (well, unless you somehow get to most coveted positions)

- Be social - seek out other people. They likely won't come for you.

- Interact with professors or similar faculty members. Not necessarily all the time, for more trivial stuff you have TA's and similar, but showing enthusiasm and passion will make people remember you.

- Leave your ego home. Ask people for help, help people, it's all part of the learning process - be humble. (Unfortunately lots of arrogant people in CS and Engineering studies)

- Attend career fairs and similar events. Get your resume or information out there. Same goes for club events.

- If you don't already do it, pick up some sport - most colleges and universities have TONS of options, not only the most mainstream sports. It's healthy, it's fun, and you meet all kinds of people.

- Partying is fun, but don't make it a habit to get hammered multiple times a week. I've seen many students fall to that lifestyle.

- Try to earn some money on the side. Most student start at rock bottom when they graduate, as far as their net worth goes. Working during summers and holidays can't help you a long way - because let me tell you this, financial stress during your education is not something you want - it can become all-consuming.

Other than that: Show up to all your lectures, do your assignments and projects - start early. Can't stress that enough.

Yes, but I won't because I find that posts like yours are only interested in performative argumentation for the sake of convincing some nebulous group of "future readers" that Linux Desktop is worth considering.

I'll save you the trouble: Dear readers, Linux Desktop is fine if you like the way it works. I encourage using tools you like. If you haven't tried it, it might work for you.

I don't like the way works, I've expounded upon the details many times, and I'm not interested in further performative argumentation on the subject.
Indeed.

I was once "detained" whilst going from France to England while the customs official searched my bag.

I complained to the UK immigration and the same customs officier called me back, searched my bag again, and said "unless you agree to withdraw your complaint, we are going to have to continue searching your bag until the train departs and you miss it".

i.e. costing me about £150 in expenses.

As expected, I withdraw it and went on my way.

However I now make a point to record the name / number of custom officials I make a complaint to -- in case they turn out to be jerks like the UK one was.
> There are a significant number of people on this site who are pretty vocally opposed to cars precisely due to the safety hazards.

No, they're not, otherwise they'd be on a farm and live of the land. Living in the city and being able to walk to the grocery store depends on other people with cars doing all the heavy lifting and delivering whatever they need by car to where they pick it up.

> I would posit that reasons why these risks are so underappreciated (and why we don't wear helmets in cars) is due to long-term concerted efforts to control how cars are understood and protrayed by those who make money from them.

I fundamentally disagree. Plenty of people die falling off of a ladder each year. Every time you use a ladder, there's a non-zero chance of dying. But ladders are great! They allow you to reach stuff you couldn't get to otherwise, so of course they're worth the risk. So do cars.

You can go over that for pretty much any topic. Want to live in a house? Construction workers are dying. Want to eat? People die in the process. But they're few, compared to the population of country, and houses and food are great.

If risk minimization is the goal, we'll all run around like the Michelin figure so we don't hurt ourselves. But we don't, because we want to get shit done, and for most things, there's a giant area where the risk is much smaller than the cost associated with avoiding it. The same is true for illnesses. Yes, it sucks, and of course nobody wants to die, but we can't go on like this forever because it could save lives.
These people tend to be intentionally aiming their lasers at planes, which is quite different from "point a laser the wrong way in the sky" which implies accidental. The headline example on your page also got a year of probation from a fairly understanding judge it seems.
The economics on small airships only work if they're unmanned, and now is pretty much the best time ever to develop unmanned aircraft.
>Not 26 per 100k population

I know people like to think that doing the per-capita calculation puts every country on an even footing for comparison. But it's kind of silly to straight compare countries with vastly different geographies and economies, regardless of population normalization.

>I think there's a fair chance they'll beat it again

If they are locked down, again, 16 months into this thing, they never beat anything.
This comment is every right wing talking point about the epidemic with a marked attempt to come across casually.
I think it does.

Ultimately it is a policy decision. There is no exact criteria what should be risk/benefit ratio before we can approve drug for unrestricted (but still doctor supervised) use.

If we as the society agree that, let's say saving 10 lives at the expense of 1 dead person (just hypothetical example, I am sure the actual benefit is much, much higher), then that's it. If we are more risk averse and demand that for 1 death there should be at least 1000 people saved, then we have a higher bar and that's also ok if the society agrees with it.

It feels like you're allowing someone to install malware on your computer but their mice are sooo nice tho. I don't play any computer games, but the deathadder elite is like a hand ferarri for work.
This is a neat concept - especially considering they are autonomous. However, I wonder about these risk scenarios:

1) Weather. Moving at 35 mph it seems that a lot of long term planning is in order for something that could be severely impacted by weather. This sounds like a logistical nightmare during a week of active weather across the country.

2) Helium availability - there have been reports that the costs of helium have gone up considerably since there are only a very few producers of the gas and this seems like it would be a huge consumer of such gas.

3) Vandalism. Never underestimate the power of stupid people. It's well known in the railroad industry that trains and their cargo often take bullets from traveling cross country. In fact, the 737 fuselages that travel across country on trains for Boeing often have bullet holes in them that must be repaired. Add in a huge cargo blimp that is unmanned and the urge for vandalism will be significant for some nefarious actors.
> if you can't make your product work with no fuss, your customers will buy someone else's

If Razor can't make their gamer mouse autoinstall drivers, then neither can Logitech. This would be an equal playing field.

> (or flee to another platform entirely).

If somebody can't type in their own password when prompted to install a driver, it probably isn't their computer in the first place. The computer almost certainly belongs to their school or employer, or at least another family member, and I think any of those would rarely be receptive to "Please replace your dell with a macbook because the turbo button on my gamer mouse doesn't work."

Furthermore, the gamer mouse will have basic functionality without the razor driver anyway, and from my experience I doubt most clueless computer users would notice the difference. If they can "click the internet button and the google shows up", then the mouse is working as far as most users of this sort are concerned.
As someone who started writing Javascript in 1997, when it came around, I would default to jQuery unless I had a very good reason not to.

Copilot didn't worsen the appsec story, it just highlighted it. If you have devs who don't know how to write secure code, and/or you don't have security engineering support (internal or outsourced), you were already failing (or probably more apropos, walking the tight rope without a net).

Was anyone checking the security of code copy pasted from Stackoverflow? Hopefully this work gets fed back into Copilot, improving it, which improves the experience (and safety) for its users. Lots of folks are still writing code without copilot or security engineering knowledge.
‘Fast compilation speed’? Nah, lol
Here's my current level of jade -- listening to repeated stories about hospital staff having to argue with a patient's family (all unvaccinated) about why they can't visit the patient (also unvaccinated) in the COVID ward, when care is being withdrawn due to organ failure.

At some point, it's like, "Jesus. Just stop talking, and please let me help you not kill yourself."
What makes you think it isn't worth the risk for young people i.e. what are the risks of the vaccine that you are worried about compared to the risks of covid for a young person?

Based on Israel's vaccine data, we would need to see 2/100k 20-29 year olds or 6/100k 30-39 year olds die or experience side affects worse than severe covid for it to make sense to avoid the vaccine.
Worst. Elite sequel. Ever.

I'm not french but spent a fair amount of time in the EU tech ecosystem and I think that "Notably french startups generally have poor execution." is a super general statement that isn't fair to apply. I mean Bernard Arnault, one of the wealthiest people in the world, built LVMH and the government has been working hard via the la french tech initiative and Station F to make the startup ecosystem much more friendly.

Something like Bootstrap is great when you don't need the custom design or you don't have a CSS expert available. For example, backend admin CRUD views and reports. It doesn't matter if it looks a bit staid or dated, the end users just need familiar and usable.
Same here; I've installed emost variations of Win 10 (and all server editions, etc.) and seen lots of bloatware but never Facebook. Though I'm in the UK if that matters.

I think the concept is awesome, and I'm excited to see it, but it raises so many questions about how this is going to work. First question that comes to mind is how are you going to handle weather- and not just crazy storms, but heat and pressure too. Blimps/semi-rigid airships face a less than ideal operating window, and while ballonets and ballast can help manage the buoyancy of the ship, inevitably you'll have to vent helium.
How are you going to approach the infrastructure the drones are going to need to stay topped up on helium and ballast, and how are you going to approach emergency situations where you end up outside of the operating window of the aircraft?
I am one of these with a background in physics, but have been out of the circle for the last 10y. I highly recommend the videos from PBS Space Time on YT. They have playlists on various topics and, if you are willing to put the mental effort, can give a solid foundation and allow to understand to some extent papers/theories like the one reported here.
Actually we are seeing the opposite to be true. Recent Israel data shows vaccine antibody counts can drop sharply in as early as 2-3 months: https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/coronavirus/1617185858-antibo...

Also, Most of the re-infected in Israel were from the vaccinated population, even after you adjust for vaccinated vs. unvaccinated population sizes: https://www.deseret.com/coronavirus/2021/7/20/22584134/whats...

On the other hand, with natural immunity, even after your antibody count wanes in your bloodstream, you still have your bone marrow and memory B cells to protect you:https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34030176/

It's looking more and more like natural immunity will be more long-lived than vaccine immunity: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-01442-9
