Was very fortunate to meet Darren, Shannon, and Patrick Norton at Defcon in 2019.

It was surreal to see them and even though I probably acted all nervous around them (still kinda had a crush on Shannon even after all these years) they were beyond nice and friendly.

They were super busy selling their kits (these OMG cables were being sold unofficially as well lol) but they took the time to chat about the history of Hak5(TechTV in the case of Patrick) and to take pics. All around a superb bunch of folks.

Its crazy to think they have been doing Hak5 for like what 15-16 years now?! So many great memories all thanks to their hard work.
Are you talking about US?
Morality is the difference. That's not exactly "norms" but somewhat on an adjacent path. But in terms of interest and participation in our club, *they are us*. That's the true terrible reality.

A more accessible idea which is quite different but allows some truth to shine in similarly is to consider how many of us are utterly dependent on advertising in our careers but we all adblock personally.
That's not even mentioning the fact that most receptors are quaternary structures in which the subunits can be switched out. This allows a single receptor to have many variations which means many variations on receptor behavior. Pardon my language, but the complexity is fucking mind boggling. It's beautiful.
There are two sides to this: enhance human decision (by accelerating it) or try replacing it.

I played around with a number of image segmentation models a couple of years back and I can only imagine how much more subtle densitometry stuff can be, but overall I'm not surprised accuracy can be way off because _any model_ can be way off depending on what it's presented with.

Most commercial Machine Learning doesn't actually learn on the job, and is actually positioned for the triage/faster handling scenario. It will spot what it was trained for, but _most likely only in the conditions it was trained for_. Change the angle, change the patient's age, add any other visible medical conditions, etc., and ratios are likely to drop.

Then again, maybe the study could be a little more systematic (as other comments point out). I'd like to see larger numbers, if only because it would help statistic significance.
There are interesting threads from some years ago here on HN that I found by searching for "domain negotiation". For example:

University of Illinois – Master's of Data Science Review
Women are working in Japan, but structurally speaking they do not work in great jobs. i.e. many Japanese companies operate dual employment tracks with career and non-career tracks; women are hired disproportionately into non-career tracks with lower job security, promotion prospects, training and pay.

Women are substantially under-represented at both middle-management and senior level (i.e. boards); and face the second-largest pay gap vs their male peers in the OECD nations.

Japan's tax and social security systems also create penalties for dual-income households with large benefit cliffs and other similar structures so many types of part-time employment are economically discouraged.

Lately, the Mexican ones have some characters in them speak in half-English, half-Spanish sentences

Pre-pandemic, part of my job included face-to-face time with poor Latin American immigrants in the southern part of the United States (Mostly Mexican, plus a lot of Colombian, Guatemalans, and the occasional Venezuelan).

90% of the first generation people I'd work with would only speak Spanish. But their kids would flip back and forth just as you describe it: fluidly, and without apparently noticing. Those kids are now in their 20's and 30's, so I'm not surprised that the TV stations are going after that prime demographic. But even if their parents didn't speak English, they very often understood what was said. They just didn't have the confidence to speak aloud. So, another market for programs that use both languages.

There is no question about it, english is eating the world

My father was one of those international businessmen stereotypes in the 1970's, doing deals from London to Chicago to Sydney. (His two teletype machines in the den were what got me interested in computers.)

He always said that English is the international language of business.

He told me that if I wanted to be a businessman, it was important to master the English language more thoroughly than my competitors. He said if I wanted to be a diplomat, learn French. If I wanted to be an engineer, learn German. If I wanted to be a scientist, learn Greek.

I took Latin.

On a workstation, I don't see so much problems. Considering that most people uses an user account that just by typing sudo (or of course spawining a process that invokes sudo) you become root without a password (because we are all annoyed inserting it, but even if we require one, it's trivial to intercept.

If it's a system you use interactively you have other problems. For a server yes, unprivileged containers are a very bad idea, not doubt.

"By Malcolm Foster, The New York Times"
I understood that each EU country can only declare one language to be an official EU language (to put a limit on the number of language combinations between which translations are needed). Because of this, there was some talk that English might be dropped as an official language when the UK left the EU, since Ireland puts forth Irish (Gaelic) as its official EU language. If so, since Finland can only propose one language, I suppose that will have been Finnish, not Swedish.

Well, the article says 78% of people 12 yo and older are vaccinated in Israel. Not sure what percent if you drop it to include everyone.

87% of those who were hospitalized were 60 or older (which doesn't match the general population). I imagine that vaccination rates are much much higher than 60% among those over 60. In the US its around 80%. But also, hospitalizations are much more likely the older you get. Moreover (and this was the point of the paper the article was discussing), the effectiveness of the vaccine may dwindle with time, and the 60+ crowd were among the first to get vaccinated.

So, no, I don't think you can do so simple a calculation and conclude that.

Instead of back of the envelope estimates, I think I'd just point to this study: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2108891

Abstract:

Background

The B.1.617.2 (delta) variant of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), has contributed to a surge in cases in India and has now been detected across the globe, including a notable increase in cases in the United Kingdom. The effectiveness of the BNT162b2 and ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccines against this variant has been unclear.
Methods

We used a test-negative case–control design to estimate the effectiveness of vaccination against symptomatic disease caused by the delta variant or the predominant strain (B.1.1.7, or alpha variant) over the period that the delta variant began circulating. Variants were identified with the use of sequencing and on the basis of the spike (S) gene status. Data on all symptomatic sequenced cases of Covid-19 in England were used to estimate the proportion of cases with either variant according to the patients’ vaccination status.
Results

Effectiveness after one dose of vaccine (BNT162b2 or ChAdOx1 nCoV-19) was notably lower among persons with the delta variant (30.7%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 25.2 to 35.7) than among those with the alpha variant (48.7%; 95% CI, 45.5 to 51.7); the results were similar for both vaccines. With the BNT162b2 vaccine, the effectiveness of two doses was 93.7% (95% CI, 91.6 to 95.3) among persons with the alpha variant and 88.0% (95% CI, 85.3 to 90.1) among those with the delta variant. With the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine, the effectiveness of two doses was 74.5% (95% CI, 68.4 to 79.4) among persons with the alpha variant and 67.0% (95% CI, 61.3 to 71.8) among those with the delta variant.
Conclusions

Only modest differences in vaccine effectiveness were noted with the delta variant as compared with the alpha variant after the receipt of two vaccine doses. Absolute differences in vaccine effectiveness were more marked after the receipt of the first dose. This finding would support efforts to maximize vaccine uptake with two doses among vulnerable populations. (Funded by Public Health England.)
Yeah, I think these DIY filter plans are great and I've built them myself, but I switched to commercial purifiers because of the sound. I don't have measurements but the box fan is substantially louder than either the Blue Air 211 or the Levoit Core 200 that I have.
This is essentially arithmetic encoding to do base conversion from binary to n-ary. Once you have enough bits, you're almost certainly not on the boundary of a bucket. Funny how the same thing seems to have been reinvented...
Maybe not trivial but these are all solved problems - media queries, http get requests and history state manipulation are all mature and well understood. In common with 90% of the web twitter’s performance and memory usage is utterly abysmal. We’ve been trained to accept this kind of thing but it doesn’t have to be this way. Im prepared to accept that there are complications that i don’t know about but Twitter is not that complicated a front end and it shouldn’t be beyond the wit of a tech company the size of Twitter to make something that y’know actually shows a tweet when you click a link to see a tweet.

Early AOL didn't give you access to the broader internet, you got access to the content they allowed you access to. That was far, far worse than today when individual platforms choose not to host certain content whether by force or choice. Your ISP isn't curating a tiny subset of the internet for you.

While I don't want blame OFF the Sacklers, there's an enormous point there. If society is willing to JUST blame the Sacklers, we're pretty much fucked.
Are you advocating for some form of extrajudicial punishment here?
I can basically agree with this, and I was being slightly provocative. On the other hand, it's become accepted wisdom that the Sacklers are Literally Hitler, and I guess I don't think puffery in marketing is really that horrendous of a moral crime. I also don't really believe that anyone who became addicted to opioids did so specifically because of their marketing practices, and would never have started without said marketing- sorry, I think that's patently absurd. We have centuries of human beings becoming extremely addicted to hard drugs with no marketing campaigns required

> It's the same problem I have with self-driving cars. We are teaching cars to behave around (and like) humans, instead of just fencing off the highways and inventing an autonomous system of vehicles ... to redesign existing systems around AI, instead of trying to replace the humans ...

Of course, fencing off existing roads to exclude human-driven cars is an economic impossibility, like converting all our electrical systems to use compressed water instead.

Regardless, today's autocars are clearly NOT ready to fly solo in the absence of humans, as the Tesla that crashed into an overturned truck on a clear day a few months ago so clearly demonstrated.

Technically, it just means extra paperwork. Tell their compliance department to hop to it.

Just because it's uncommon, doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. In fact, the justification for these types of controls is normal people don't do those type of transactions.

Think about that carefully, and you'll start to smell the rat decaying under the floor. In a way, the system is architecting itself to keep the fiscal freedom of the populace low to catch outliers that may just be criminals.

I've just never been able to convince myself that there isn't some economic reality shaping going on there that people don't feel comfortable either talking about or admitting. If I can't easily do a transaction, but that transaction would be an example of good business that everyone wins from; I'd possibly be dissuaded from even trying.

That seems counter to incentivizing good business to facilitate economic mobility.

At this point it is widely recognized that viral evolution is undermining the effectiveness of the current vaccines at preventing infection (~91% to ~66%) [1] and symptomatic illness (~95% to ~65%) [2].

Still, the benefits of vaccination remain significant - vaccines are helping prevent severe outcomes like hospitalization and death for many people.

Researching formulations that are more robust to viral resistance is already becoming a top priority. Diversifying viral elimination strategies at the population level will also be critical. Mandatory nonpharmaceutical interventions such as lock-downs and masking may help slow the spread of the virus, but at this point those measures will not stop the spread, because SARS-CoV-2 is highly contagious and primarily transmitted through the air (as acknowledged by the WHO and CDC) [3].

Yes. Laws made vague enough so they can arbitrary claim something is a "data breach" or "antitrust", despite not being able to quantify the harm of these violations.

It requires a kernel that allows unprivileged user namespaces.

Docker images that run as uid 0, which many of them do, could potentially exploit their way out of the container, since kernel code running as (actual or namespaced) uid 0 hasn't been extensively tested to be safe and bug-free.

You might have to experiment with different "drivers" to get the overlay filesystem and cgroups components to work on any given host. (These are not hardware drivers, but something more like docker subsystem plugins.)

By default, it expects a dbus user session, which a headless server might not have. You can either enable one or configure a different `cgroupdriver`.
Israel went very heavily with Pfizer which ended up rather ineffective against Delta. With a more balanced mix they would have probably fared better.

That's (almost) exactly what I did and without prior docker experience. I must admin it was less hassle with docker, but still docs for particular containers had to be read to understand configuration options.

+ setting up for external access, letsencrypt and tying that everything within docker-compose. I didn't manage to do it in 20minutes, but more like full working day maybe?

Anyway, HA is recommended. Haven't tried ESPHome, but Tasmota is an alternative that also does the job, if you someone ever wants to research the options.
