Satellite.im | Project Manager | REMOTE (US/Canada) | website: https://satellite.im

About Us: We are a VC funded small team of remote developers, designers, and software testers. We are working on a p2p & e2e encrypted voice/video/text chat application built on IPFS and Solana. Our goal is to create something that is easy to use, secure, and private. We are working on our beta right now, and are launching soon.

We are looking for candidates who are self starters and interested in identifying and fixing problems. We are looking to build a culture from the ground up, as such there isn't a lot of formal process in place. An interest in helping to build and define that would be a positive. We are unable to sponsor candidates, so we can only hire people already authorized to work in the US or Canada. Candidates that are interested in blockchain and web3 are a huge plus. Non standard and diverse candidates are encouraged to apply. If you don't match the opening 100% but are interested and think you would be a good fit, or want to know more, please apply anyways.

Project Manager: We are looking for an experienced project manager who has led and managed software projects before. An interest/experience with javascript, rust, and crypto (we are using solana) is pretty important. Most of your duties would be PM related, but as we are growing and trying to figure things out there would be a lot of room to help in other areas.

Please email matt@satellite.im (founder/lead dev) or hogan@satellite.im (dev) with any questions, or to say HI and send your resume and start a conversation.

That’s not how mRNA vaccines work.

mRNA isn’t gene therapy, it induces cells primarily the dendritic cells of your immune system to produce antigens and their antibodies.

Dendritic cells are essentially your body’s CSI they roam around Hoovering stuff that is floating in your body and analyzing it.

The mRNA is picked up through phagocytosis, is decoded by the ribosome and the cell begins to produce antigens.

The cells in your body then attack the antigens with proteasomes, once the antigens are broken down they’ll be presented in the cell membrane of the dendritic cells for other immune cells to sample and produce antibodies for.

This is really not that different than how deactivated virus or protein based vaccines work, dendritic cells swallow them up analyze them, break down the antigens and present the evidence to the “cops” that then go and hunt down the baddies…

The mRNA vaccine doesn’t hijacks the cells of your body in the same way as viruses do, it doesn’t interact with your DNA or nucleus the same way that retroviruses or well actual gene therapy do.

I really don’t understand why you are spreading this misinformation.

I must admit that I've never used such a keyboard before, but it seems better to me than half-height arrow keys, or heaven forbid, half-height Up and Down arrows but full-height Left and Right arrows, what an abomination!

What I don't understand, if they're going to include a numeric keypad on the right, is why they didn't make the bottom of the numeric keypad the arrow keys. Looking at [1], 2 should be Up, 0 should be Down, Right should be Left, . should be Right. So Num Lock should be Insert, 7 should be Delete, / should be Home, 8 should be End, * should be PageUp, 9 should be PageDown.

I'd imagine that most techies use the arrow keys and Home/End/PageUp/PageDown keys a lot more than the numeric keys, why not make that the primary layout, and be numeric keys only when Num Lock is on?

Am I crazy? Or does nobody give keyboards one ounce of thought ever?

In my experience it gets more complicated depending on the days leading up to the event. Given good sleep for a good stretch of days up to the day before the exam, all-nighter can work out fine. But I guess there is a correlation between lack of discipline to get good sleep and not studying regularly so I can see that being a rare situation :-)

Hypnosis is a tool that is tremendously useful for the control of vegetative functions (I am an hypnotist myself), but unfortunately it has suffered from an abundance of charlatans, like electro-medicine.

My dream is to make hypnosis available to the general public.

> This is America. We don't learn from examples abroad.

So you're saying we won't therefore we shouldn't try? Somehow the Austrians and Hungarians and various Yugoslav republics and Latvia and Poland and Switzerland and basically every country in eastern and southern europe all can keep track of the people born within their borders even as the borders shifted but the US can't tell a black american? It just sounds like a very very weak argument to me.
Heh, you've asked an eternal question which I asked in my intro macroeconomics class, and which I suspect is being asked at the Presidential/Prime Minister and Central Bank levels in many developed countries now. I'll give you both the macroeconomic answer and the historical answer.

The macroeconomic answer is yes, assuming that you can control inflation and spend your money in a wise disciplined manner, you can do this. An inflation rate of 10% is basically a wealth tax on currency-denominated assets of 1/1.1 ~= 9%, collected implicitly. And it has many benefits. Administration cost is near-zero, the government just needs to print money and let price levels do the rest. As a wealth tax, it's progressive. It encourages consumer spending, and encourages people to hold productive assets rather than currency-denominated financial instruments. Aside from land & externality taxes, it's one of the best types of tax.

The historical reality is much nuanced, and negative. In reality, you never get uniform inflation across all prices; instead you get something called Cantillon Effects [1], where money pools at the places it's injected within the economy and at monopolies, and never makes it to ordinary consumers. This ruins a lot of the progressiveness of inflation: Google and Facebook shareholders will enjoy higher ad prices (which is happening now), but the ordinary service worker on the street still lacks the bargaining power to get a raise. And it's also easier to dodge than governments believe: instead of holding wealth in cash, wealthy individuals will simply hold stocks, cryptocurrency, art, NFTs, and other "floating" assets whose value rises along inflation (this is also happening now). Inflation also acts on a tax on the economic efficiency of businesses and consumers - instead of the government collecting the tax, businesses simply have to re-price all of their items, and consumers may need to find alternate sources if relative prices change.

The worst case, though, is that it's unclear whether it's possible to maintain steady, government-controlled inflation at appropriate tax levels (which would have to be about 50% to maintain government spending levels of about 35% of the economy). Looking at incidents of high & hyperinflation [2], it's very difficult to find time periods where inflation exceeded 20% but then did not go on to exceed hundreds of percent. Businessmen seem to have a binary approach to inflation - either they can think of a world of stable prices (where maybe they give 2-3% CoL increases each year), or they must grab all the money they can right now because all their costs are going up too and if they don't they'll go out of business. There are many historical examples where governments thought "Okay, we can tolerate just a few percent higher inflation to fund this one war, and the spoils will pay it back later" and instead they found themselves tipped into hyperinflation and unable to rein the economy back in.

To me the hole notion of junk DNA seamed wrong or even ludicrous the first time I heard of it.

I have a hard time understanding that anyone with a proper education in the field would ever believe the junk dna thesis.

Could it be that it has something to do with me being educated in computers before being educated in biology?
The analogy’s a person with computer knowledge would use might make it hard to see these things as junk.

> As I understand it, a university education was never intended to be a gateway to employment

It also wasn't intended for middle class people of average intelligence. Consider, before WW2 only about 10% of people attended college. You either came from money or you were a rather bright person. Today it is an employment gateway. People mainly attend to "get a good job", not for the pursuit of higher knowledge and "finishing". For those of humble origins that want to use it to discover themselves or become an "intellectual", well enjoy the 100k debt while slinging lattes.
Alternative Free Email Services
Hello,

can you tell me some non-commercial or non-mainstream alternative free email services for tech activism?

tell few alternatives to the popular ones like Riseup, Disroot or others...

Thank you
it really depends on the situation. the gold standard for retaining knowledge is short, active (ie, not just re-reading notes/books) study sessions spread out over many days.

but this takes a lot of time discipline. if you don't care about the material and just want to pass the test, I find dumb cramming methods like retyping all the professor's powerpoints the night before work pretty well. I got lots of As in classes I didn't care about that way. I forgot almost all the material later, but it left me with more time to study properly for stuff I was actually interested in.
This doesn't have to be hard to remember. Don't let the proxy being a server complicates the view.

What does the proxy look like 'to the internet', a client or a web server?
Yes, thank you for correcting this.

No, it doesn’t work like that mRNA isn’t a virus or virus like it doesn’t hijacks the cell. The mRNA fragments are picked up by dendritic cells and antigens are produced. The antigens (and the mRNA itself) are then attacked by special proteins within your cells that are designed to destroy foreign or malformed proteins and the fragments of those destroyed antigens are then presented in the cell membrane for T and B cells to inspect and produce antibodies against.
