Note this is specific to England. Other countries in the UK are following their own course -- the Scottish government agreed in principle to introduce vaccine passports as of a week ago and will require them for entry to large venues from October 1st:

The NHS is a fully devolved issue, with separate NHS organizations in Wales, England, Northern Ireland, reporting to the devolved parliaments and legislative assemblies, and Scotland, leading to differing outcomes in handling COVID19. Vaccination and COVID19 control is not quite as crazily politicized as it is in the USA, but the conservative (right wing) government in England is handling it rather differently from the SNP/Green (left wing) government in Scotland.

Likely because DNS worked just fine without EDNS client IP (and indeed DNS) for decades. For example, I remember the use of the 4.2.2.2 server, which was globally accessible but US-based. The responses though were 100% usable wherever you were on the planet. Equally, a national ISP running DNS servers would get you a country at most; a /24 gives you city or better location, carrier-grade NAT aside. Latency between the client and server may be slightly higher, but that's the end user's problem and not an issue for the site. In any case, it sounds like the Cloudflare source IPs for recursive DNS lookups are locatable via GeoIP, so I fail to see the problem.
Very interesting! I especially like the expressed interest in logic-based approaches for reasoning about graphs. Quoting from the article:

"Logic-based and declarative formalisms. Logic provides a unifying formalism for expressing queries, optimizations, integrity constraints, and integration rules. Starting from Codd's seminal insight relating logical formulae to relational queries, many first order (FO) logic fragments have been used to formally define query languages with desirable properties such as decidable evaluation. Graph query languages are essentially a syntactic variant of FO augmented with recursive capabilities.
[...]
The influence of logic is pivotal not only to database languages, but also as a foundation for combining logical reasoning with statistical learning in AI. Logical reasoning derives categorical notions about a piece of data by logical deduction."

This interest could be good news for vendors of logic programming languages such as Prolog and its syntactic subset Datalog. These languages enable very convenient reasoning about graphs and allow both storing and querying the database with the same simple language elements that can themselves also be analyzed and reasoned about with the same formalism.

Imagine how convenient it would be to have a large graph database represented as a set of Prolog clauses that can be queried, run and analyzed with an efficient Prolog system! The data itself, queries, and any desired transformation and augmentation could be uniformly expressed in this way.
I have a friend who "just doesn't care that much about it"... to the amount that it is straining my ability to continue the friendship (unbeknownst to him). (He's not a techy person, and is in(to?) Apple's walled-off gardens.)

And, because of people like him, anti-privacy micro steps are continuously made, and Overton windows slowly but continually shifts... until one moment when he/they start to care, but then it's too late. And then they're usually greatly surprised and astonished that "that's allowed?!".

Yeah, it is, buddy, it is. Because you "just didn't care that much". Now you have to live with consequences that the rest of who "did care" have lived (and fought) with since the [metaphorical] beginning.
Along the same lines, it could be due to people having windows open or closed at night.
In a niche community, even to be stable you need slow growth, even if at a trickle pace. The simple reason is that some formerly active people grow disinterested and move on, some grow old, some die.

You need such a stream of newcomers that within their first, say, 500 contributions they get savvy enough to fit in and carry the momentum. You also need enough people who understand and tend to the spirit of the community so they can successfully oppose a famed veteran who may suddenly go renegade.
> It's very contagious if you come in contact with certain bodily fluids

Yeah, IF you come in contact with certain bodily fluids. We don't do that everyday, but we do it everyday with airborne diseases when breathing. So, it's not THAT contagious. I've heard stories of doctors being infected when trying to help some junkie who started being aggressive.

I'm not scared, I'm vaccinated and still use mask. I'm currently self-isolating because I've got some mild cough and don't want to spread whatever I have, I've cancelled todays dinner with remote (other country) coworker who I would see live first time since a year, but that could mean spreading some flu to him and others in restaurant.

> In fact I see most of the problem being with the vaccinated thinking they're totally safe, and not using a mask.

I'm 100% with you about this. They should isolate more. Now, what was your argument again?

A family member of mine has one of these. Of course, being a good grandson, I tell him to use it for phone calls only and never sign into anything. Soon after setting it up he started complaining that it was showing him ads; I was confused because he had barely touched it but turns out the phone has a hidden carrier “app updater” (read: remote installer) that had silently downloaded several adware packages to his device. It is outrageous that we push these devices to older, frequently technically illiterate people. There has to be a better system behind this than “we gave them a free phone, who cares if it’s actively unsafe to actually use”.
My comment about "incorrect" concerned your presumed mechanism, which implied a lack of respect for user privacy by the researchers and IT staff.

My first experience with the JVM classpath was when I started using Clojure with zero Java experience. I quickly understood it more or less works the same as UNIX $PATH (although the devil is in the details, they are not identical), and since then I haven't really hit any issues. nodejs/npm does something similar by instead of being user set by default, it defaults to "./node_modules && ./node_modules/*/node_modules" (recursively).

Most languages deal with paths in mostly similar ways (except Go until recently). What precisely is your issues with the Java classpath that someone who have been writing Clojure code for years haven't hit yet?
I'm fascinated by Wyntoon.

Occasionally I'll meet someone who works for the Hearst corporation - at the San Francisco Chronicle newspaper for example - and inevitably when I ask them if they've been to Wyntoon (now owned by the corporation) they will say something like that their boss's boss has been once but they're not yet high enough up the ladder to score an invite.

There is, the number of vaccinations in France jumped remarkably after vaccine passports were made mandatory for cinemas, theatres, restaurants, etc. Considering that's the main goal of such policies, it seems like a success.

And yes, the main point is to limit hospitalisations, because they're the main limiting factor ( at least in France, but probably in most other developed countries as well).
As others have said Mastodon might be what you want. You can self-host it, either "at home" or "in the cloud", and you can choose not to federate at all, or choose to federate only with instances you choose. You can choose to run as "invite only", or to allow anyone, and then eject people who behave poorly.

So you can set it up as an "invite only social network where I choose who can join", as you say.

With the disclaimer that I'm not an expert: that's wrong. The vaccines are extremely efficacious in preventing hospitalisations and deaths, and are moderately efficacious in reducing transmission.

Do they have screens or components? I tought they only have modular components that you can then integrate in your project - sort of like material or ant but a bit more complex. Am I wrong?
As they should be, considering that the vaccines do not stop people from getting infected and infecting others. Making sure there are only vaccinated people in a bar does not mean the people inside can’t get infected so this measure does not help achieve that goal.

The Central Planning Committee decided that Soviet people need arcade machines (there were some lobbying, of course, and the idea was probably suggested by an official who visited Western countries and have seen them before). After the idea was approved in principle, the task was given to engineers to develop them: some were copied from Western devices, others developed from scratch. Then, factories were upgraded to mass produce these machines. Then, they were everywhere: in every large (government-managed) store, looking exactly the same. Soviet economy was strange and surreal.
It makes sense if vaccine reduces infection rate.
> Using this logic, why did we isolate prior to having a vaccine?

To prevent hospitals overrun by sick people.

If more people get vaccine, I'm for ending with isolation or other pandemic safety measures. Those who didn't want to vaccinate can die if they want to. The problem AT THIS MOMENT is that there is too many unvaccinated people, so when covid spreads, hospitals will be overflowed and other people will die from other preventable diseases from lack of care.

Wild guess... but this sounds like the drive letter isn't really a feature but actually an implementation detail leaking through that they are trying to dress up as a feature. At least that would explain their insistence on users hiding the drive instead of removing it.

I believe, previously they just had a daemon running on the client PC that synced a local folder with the cloud storage. (Like Dropbox)

Now they seem to have switched to some sort of "fuse-but-on-windows" virtual device driver that accesses the cloud storage directly and presents it locally as a virtual drive. (Like OneDrive)

Would this make sense?
The same brand of ‘successes’ can be achieved by banning alcohol, tobacco, fast food or whatever vice you want.
Well, if the large majority of your population is already vaccinated, I guess these passports could potentially be dismissed, if masks are still mandatory, but for some countries - like Portugal where we have +80% of the pop. vaccinated - the main concern are tourists that completely disregard any etiquette or measures in place.

So I think keeping passports is a good measure, not perfect due to breakthrough infections, still better than nothing.

Configuration adds complexity and is a huge source of confusion for users

This is overstated, and blown out of proportion these days.

Many of the studies stating so are 30 years old, at a time when virtually everyone was new to computing.

As well, an "advanced" menu item makes it simplisticly clear, don't monkey here novice, even an option for 'expert'.

And these can all be hidden away, so the novice / confused cannot find them easily, such as a pref "show advanced option".

This had worked well for decades. No confusion.

The real reason this "confusion" narrative exists, is options cost money, time. It fits the preference of less work.

If the patient is conscious and starts exhibiting symptoms indicative of a medical emergency then there's the possibility of treating it. If they're unconscious you might not know about it until you start seeing cardiac or respiratory symptoms, at which point you've already waited too late and they could die, be left in a comatose state, or suffer from brain damage. How is improving the odds of preventing that not "for the benefit of the patient"?

Clearly only true solution to stop spread is permanent lockdown. And ban bars, restaurants, events and any sort of gatherings forever. I believe all pro-vaccine people already agree that no sacrifice of freedoms is too big for greater good.

After all, why wouldn't they support keeping the vulnerable safe? Cost is only small sacrifice in bodily autonomy and clearly most effective thing to do.

Dr. Drosten [0], maybe Germany's most well known virologist at the moment, recently commented on rules to only allow vaccinated/recovered (but not unvaccinated but tested) people into restaurants and venues [1]. The reasoning behind that is a lot different than you would expect. It is not because unvaccinated would pose a threat to others but because they are at risk of catching the disease from a vaccinated, infected but asymptomatic guest (you would only find these if everyone would be tested).
