If she moves around a lot she could do 90 days of Australia, 90 days of Thailand, and then she might be ok again to stay in Australia. Or go somewhere else, e.g. Indonesia allows 30 days stay and it resets whenever you leave, people can just fly to Singapore and back every 30 days (although after a few times the authorities do ask to check that you're not working in the country without a work visa)

For the EU (I think Schengen, but don't quote me) you're allowed* to stay as a a tourist 90 days inside 180 days (so if you stayed for 30 days, and stayed away for 50 days, you're allowed to stay another 60 days the rest of the 100 days)

* For "first world" people who can come Visa free.

Japan also allows 90 days for first worlders...

Not everybody needs / is fit for long studies so I don't think it should become the baseline. I still think it should be free to avoid preventing people who are but could not otherwise afford it from attending it.

PC laptops are now budget machines so they compete on price. Anything that competes on price tends to become a deflationary race to the bottom.

This is part of why people feel almost stuck with Apple. Their hardware is a lot better than most of the competition, though it comes with a price premium, and while there are privacy concerns they are less than with these shitware-loaded machines. You can also install Linux on them if you really want no telemetry at all, even with M1 Macs.

I've read a fair bit of Stephenson, and have never felt _satisfied_ by any of the endings. I enjoy reading his stories enough that I still read (and have re-read) them. Maybe it's that I want more from the characters, or an epilogue lunch at shawarma palace (or, more appropriately, Uncle Enzo's Pizza) where they show things returning to normal.

The closest thing I've encountered to that in film is the end of Hitchcock's North by Northwest. (SPOILERS) It's _very_ abrupt. And yet, when I think about it, it feels masterful -- there's nothing that could have been added between the climax and the ending that would have made it better. Objectively it seems really good, but it's _shocking_ in how abrupt it is, and as a viewer it took me some time to reconcile between "I hate that" and "that's probably brilliant".

ISS's reason to exist went away when the Shuttle was mothballed. The ISS was, in turn, the reason to keep flying the Shuttle. They tried to come up with a similar dodge for SLS, in the moon orbit base, but SpaceX pulled the rug out from under that. That would have been a boondoggle of dven more epic proportions than STS/ISS.

We still need to find a way to shut down the F-35 without needing to cancel all the subcontracts let for parts of it. Without saving those, it will never be allowed to die. (Using the afterburner destroys parts of the rear control surfaces, that have to be replaced at a cost of, what, tens? hundreds? of $thousands after the flight... if it lands.)

If we look at a maxed out dell xps 13 with ubuntu, the cost is $1,909.00 and I can probably squeak out some additional cost with my business account.

If we look at a maxed out M1 Macbook Air it's $2,049.00 with 2TB of drive space.

The maxed out frame.work costs $1,917.00 with a 100 dollar deposit and that doesn't have a drive in because I don't trust WD with my data. If we add a 2 TB drive the cost is $2,316.00 or $2,416.00 with deposit.

Granted there are some trade offs. Take for instance the frame.work has more memory, but the dell xps has a 4k screen. I don't see any costs savings here and I still have to open this thing up, source a drive and put it all together which means I'm spending additional money on this.
the other side of this coin is that ssh key access is controlled and recorded more carefully, with more options to disable and ban.
I found this: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3848041/

For whatever it's worth, I heard about this like a decade ago, and nothing more has come from it, so perhaps you are correct in that the connection is speculative (the study only had 24 participants and more research needs to be conducted with large samples), but it's an interesting study none the less.

I'm afraid I don't have that much info on PowerBI so I can't speak about its ease of use. I know for sure it has more analytics feature so it's better when it comes to digging deeper in your data.

The pricing is a bit strange since you apparently pay by the hour you show users the dashboards and monthly, it starts from $700+/m which is much more than Chartbrew as a service (which is also free to self-host).

Another thing I'm not sure PowerBI has, are templates so that you can replicate dashboards for separate clients. In Chartbrew you can create your own custom templates or use the ones already created in the platform.

But before starting to use any of the services, make sure you data sources are supported by the platform.

By way of metaphor:

When you hand your friend a letter and ask them to mail it from their mailbox, that friend acts as a forward proxy. The post office doesn't know from whom the letter originates, only that the friend sent it.

When you go to the post office and hand the clerk your letter, that clerk acts as a reverse proxy. You don't know what happens to the letter from that point on.

Common cases:

Say your friend provides this service for your entire town, then they're acting as a privacy VPN (since now the post office can only say a particular letter is from the town).

Say you want to send a letter to that celebrity but the celebrity's security team will toss any envelope not on the approved list. So you ask your friend, who is on that list, to put your letter in their envelope so it'll get through. Now your friend is acting as an access VPN.
Or the system (laws or computers, take your pick) will be updated to make it harder to get assistance which will impact the individuals who genuinely need it while not having much of an impact on the massive organized fraud operations.
Glad to see in the past two weeks your only comments have been to come here and speak only with me, on two completely unrelated threads. I'm sure this will be a genuine discussion.

You've schooled yourself, as you just told me education is discretionary spending. Sounds like you're arguing against taxation for education. In your words, my kid's education is a "private" matter that has "NOTHING" to do with taxes.

If you're paying $1200 for your own fire brigade because the taxpayer funded one doesn't go to your address, I'd say it's pretty foolish to be paying taxes on the expansion plan for the fire brigade going to most of the rest of the county (but not your address!).

And yet we probably don't know why they have so many copies. Maybe it's a crude method of regulating the ratio of activation on genes. If a few genes are either on or off, and you want to have ratios other than 1:0 1:1 or 0:1, maybe independently activating N of the M copies can achieve that. Just speculating as to how multiple copies might be useful.

You can't prove that they are "extra copies" until you understand pretty much everything about them and their interactions with everything else.

> We included nine trials (of which eight were cluster‐RCTs) comparing medical/surgical masks versus no masks to prevent the spread of viral respiratory illness (two trials with healthcare workers and seven in the community). There is low certainty evidence from nine trials (3507 participants) that wearing a mask may make little or no difference to the outcome of influenza‐like illness (ILI) compared to not wearing a mask (risk ratio (RR) 0.99, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.82 to 1.18) [1]

The effectiveness of masks is complicated. It is not a black or white situation.

I'm actually not quite sure what you mean by breaking down into two-dimensional operations. We use operations on pairs of vectors, but nothing is assumed to be two-dimensional, and I don't think we suggest imagining anything as a plane? The vectors can be arbitrary and there's no assumption about curvature. Happy to clarify if I can help.

It's not just the paradox of thrift. The general concept is the paradox of competition. There are macroeconomic statements that always apply but as individuals optimize their local statements they actually end up "deoptimizing" the global statement. Basically a race to the bottom or a continuous form of the prisoners dilemma. In other words, the idea that local decision making will always reach a global optimum, the very foundation of free market economics, isn't even true in theory given our current money system.

See this in the case of Greece vs Germany. Germany is trying to boost exports by cutting back on imports. If Greece would retaliate by following the exact strategy there would be less trade between them overall. Meanwhile if both countries tried to boost imports, then both of them would be better off.

How exactly does Germany do it? The government is simply enacting policies to destroy the bargaining power of labor. Yes, Germany is trying to compete with Greece based on labor costs. It's trying to pass off a questionable economic policy that destabilizes the eurozone as strength because of moral attachments to export industries and saving money while blaming the other side for importing its products and borrowing to pay for them. This is why the eurozone is a failure and every country should have its own currency.

Regarding WebRTC-type leaks probably the best answer on Linux is to have a separate network namespace with only wg0 inside of it and then run your browser in the network namespace. Then the browser does not get to "see" the real egress interface/its IP and thus can't leak it even if it wanted to. Or, if you want this to apply for everything, move physical interface in its own namespace so all apps from the default namespace only see the WireGuard interface.

> Considerably greater risk of myocarditis and other heart issues from infection than the vaccine.

Citing your source:

2.7 events per 100,000 persons (vaccinated)

11.0 events per 100,000 persons (SarS-COV2 positive)

This already doesn't look that great, considering that the risk of a PCR-confirmed infection is not 100%. More importantly, it doesn't take into account age.

The age group at highest risk from Myocarditis following vaccination is 16-17 year-old males, latest numbers from the CDC[1]:

5.1/71.5 events* per 100,000 first/second Pfizer doses administered (within 7 days)

This has a strong bias towards the second dose, it's not clear yet how booster shots fare here, which may need to be administered at 5 months intervals.

It stands to reason that the Myocarditis risk from COVID infection in that age group should also be higher, but it's not clear whether the benefit outweighs the risk in that age/sex group, considering that both infection count and side-effect cases tend to be under-reported.

*) It's not clear whether that number includes the cases "under investigation". If so, this would further raise the risk by up to 66%.

This way you can get the 9 evenly spaced aproximate numbers

1.28 = 128/100
1.6 = 16/10
2
2.56 = 256/100
3.2 = 32/10
4
5.12 = 512/100
6.4 = 64/10
8

Do you have any more tricks?

Edit: Searching my memory I now remember the fact

2^16/3^8 ~= 10

which can be used iteratively to pen-and-paper generate another 7 evenly spaced numbers

2*2/3 (1. number) *2*2/3 (2. number) *2*2/3 ...
It of course depends a lot on the scope of testing you want done (code audit, probing your running SaaS, some light breaking & entering [1]…) and how much time you want to give them to probe.

And how well organized you are in providing them info/how much trouble it seems like you're going to be for them.

And how well known the vendor doing the work is.

And lots of other factors. Possibly somewhat discounted for OSS or high-profile projects, this is also an advertisement for Cure53 to some degree.

But as a random guess for a random project, at least low 5-figures.

A better way of getting the point across is “spend time with people who can help you grow”. And since no human is the best at everything, two people can both help each other grow.
I remember talking to my colleagues about 15 years ago about trying to do research on some noncoding polymorphisms and was ridiculed. The basic response was something along the lines of "those are noncoding, why would you look at those?" as if I was an idiot who didn't understand current genetics.

It's been long ago enough that I don't remember all the details, but my perspective was that it was naive and arrogant to assume we had a good handle on everything about DNA, especially then as it was all new, and there was evidence then that a lot of the noncoding DNA had function.

Dogmatic attitudes are surprisingly prevalent in academics. There's definitely a weird hubris accompanying published findings that goes something like peer reviewed -> established fact as if the point of academics isn't to understand things but to score points like on a test. Some skepticism about certain things seems warranted but other times there's really nothing but overly simplistic models that were really never evaluated to begin with. I wish there was more awareness of the topography of uncertainty in research findings.
> The risk of suffering long-term damage from getting covid unvaccinated is way higher than the risk of any long-term side effects from the vaccine or getting Covid vaccinated

Honest question, there were studies about the effect of the vaccine on hospitalizations. But is there any studies about the effect on long covid ? And especially is there studies showing that people under the age of 40 in healthy condition have any benefit regarding long covid by taking the vaccine ?

> I really just don't understand the risk-benefit analysis where the vaccine is too risky but catching Covid isn't.

Well, some people don't like to take drugs, so if they know that their immune system can cope with it (even if that means difficult time for a short time) they would prefer it. It is not risk-benefit positive. It is just more aligned with some people feelings. Some people make preventing death as the almost most important things in their life, so they will take drugs, be careful in life and so on. While some people are just ok dying in certain conditions, and are not willing to engage in risk-free life
