I can’t see how when Java predates JavaScript.
Because cops will use whatever absurdities they can find. Which is the bigger problem: frivolous copyright enforcement, or police abuse of power? Why would you focus on the first rather than the second?
Finland’s was quite light touch, apart from the start where bars had to shut along with schools and WFH, ‘lockdown’ here was not in the same league as say the UK or France. There never were and are not now enforceable mask mandates and the more empty parts of the country have been restriction free for most of the year.

Maybe it was luck, a sparse population or of course the often repeated ‘everyone always does what they’re told’ (hmmm). Also it started off well but things have become quite fragmented recently (different agencies issuing rules about different things at different times, in different regions, much to the dismay of anyone trying to plan anything). In short, whilst interesting, there’s not really any useful comparison that you can make between the US and Finland in my opinion.
That context changes everything.
Recommendation on YouTube is somewhat good but search sucks. When you search for something it throws at you random garbage on top of the thing you are actually looking for, think AltaVista vs Google yes Google you own the YouTube. There is no ability to search for videos in playlists and there is no ability to search videos' comments.

Also they say >borderline content—that is content that comes close to, but doesn’t quite violate our Community Guidelines.

TOS can not treat anything as "borderline"; borderline is akin to robbing a bank and then telling a judge your crime was "borderline" because you were out of money and you needed to get your financial situation straight by robbing a bank. My point is TOS and Law are binary either something is allowed or forbidden there is no middle ground.
Shouldn't everything created using tax payer money should be released for free - software, research, data collection etc
The immune system is a curious thing. There is e.g. a vaccine against pneumonia but you my doctor explained to me that you can only get it once in your life. There is another one which is not as good so you may get that some years later. The recommendation is - at least here in Germany - to take the vaccine only once you are older and have a higher hospitalization (and with it associated infection) risk.

Clearly a booster would reduce infections but that effect probably is dwarfed by vaccinating the un-vaccinated. Rolling out a booster across a large population takes resources (and the health sector is running very, very low on resources - Idaho gave up on normal standards of care now).

The question is also what is the impact of the booster on medium term development, medium term options and vaccination discipline of the general population. We also lack understanding of Pfizer vs. Moderna stats. Then the is the lack of understanding what repeated short term boosting does - it is not typically done. And last but not least the question is what is the best strategy to deal with the threat of new variants emerging. Reducing infections in the US will help reduce the chance for a concerning variant to emerge but possibly these resources are better spent fighting the virus globally as these variants tend not to stay in one place only.

Pushing for a quick approval and rollout for the first vaccine was a relatively clear cut risk - benefit trade-off. There are risks with the booster (small but there are with any medicine) and the benefit is vastly smaller. The trade-off is different and we should not pressure experts to come to conclusions on a shortened timeline.

Studying Up Machine Learning Data: Why Talk About Bias When We Mean Power?
"Research in machine learning (ML) has primarily argued that models trained on incomplete or biased datasets can lead to discriminatory outputs. In this commentary, we propose moving the research focus beyond biasoriented framings by adopting a power-aware perspective to “study up” ML datasets. This means accounting for historical inequities, labor conditions, and epistemological standpoints inscribed in data. We draw on HCI and CSCW work to support our argument, critically analyze previous research, and point at two co-existing lines of work within our community — one bias-oriented, the other power-aware. This way, we highlight the
need for dialogue and cooperation in three areas: data quality, data work, and data documentation. In the first area, we argue that reducing societal problems to “bias” misses the context-based nature of data. In the second one, we highlight the corporate forces and market imperatives involved in the labor of data workers that subsequently shape ML datasets. Finally, we propose expanding current transparency-oriented efforts in dataset documentation to reflect the social contexts of data design and production."

It’s only under EUA in certain populations, such as those 12-15 or as a booster in those immunocompromised.
In my opinion, that’s pointless. Reading ebooks is a cleaner and easier experience. I only read physical books so I can keep the books afterwards.
Your new chart overlays all ten years for each decade over each other with the same color. This is great for obscuring, but not much else. Is there a reason you don't like the more legible chart I posted?

Looking again at your original link, Hansen's scenario B predicts a ~1.45 deg increase from 1988. So, in answer to your question, not that.

> any time wasted by delaying it with promises of Geoengineering is criminal.

We know a lot about sulfur dioxide in the upper atmosphere, because volcanos.

We should really try all these things at a small scale, with science and R&D, so we can learn and reduce the unknowns. It isn't extremely dangerous.

For instance, the best geoengineering is cloud creation (marine cloud brightening) which literally just involves lofting seasalt into the lower atmosphere.

Why not? "Technology caused the problem, so it can't solve it", that sort of thing?
Well, no, and you can't prove that tomorrow you won't see a pig just start floating in the air.

The thing with the laws of physics is they they appear to predict 100% of what happens in nature. No one has ever seen something in nature, or in the lab, that either couldn't have been predicted by the physics of the day, or later after new laws theories were created.

So.. either your muscle fibers are controlled by your neurons, acting according to their understood biochemical operations, i.e. the laws of physics/chemistry, or they are not...

Free will says that your actions are not proscribed by the wiring of your brain and laws of physics - that you have a choice in what you do. Until someone observes a neuron not acting according to the laws of chemistry, that seems like an awfully long-shot belief, even if nothing can be ruled out. Perhaps someone in the future will discover the human spirit is controlling quantum behavior ?!

To me the ultimate key to avoiding superfluous comments like the ones you refer to, and resulting ones like yours, would be to add a tag into the subject line when presenting Software, like [Electron]. That would also be helpful for other categories, like [subscription], [ClosedSource], etc..
Here are a few examples of human figures from 30,000 years ago [1], and 35,000 to 40,000 years ago [2, 3]. For comparison, the eroded camel sculptures are from 8,000 years ago at best.

Moreover, beware of possible biases which could explain what we see today: there is a difference between what we observe and what was. Remember for instance the destruction of the Buddhas of Bamiyan [4], which happened less than 1,500 years after they were built. It is extremely unlikely that a work of art survives for 40,000 years, and some may be more likely to be destroyed than others, depending on location, weather, traditions, history, etc.

I spent the pandemic in a tiny apartment. Did laundry in the tub for a while (no w/d). Finding space to hang sheets to dry was a fun challenge. Quickly developed an appreciation for easy to wash and hard-to-stink-up items like singlets. Not going to lie, the laundry part sucked. But that is not inherent to urbanism. Most apartments can be updated to have a w/d. Many can be updated to have outdoor space. The parks are still there. From my perspective, the bargain you describe still exists and it was never critically important to own a house or car. Still in the city and not leaving any time soon. To each their own!
The sooner you realize that nobody is running the world from the shadows, the better off you'll be from a mental health standpoint.
This is just getting ridiculous. Get everyone who wants it the vaccine and then drop the distancing measures and masks so heard immunity builds and repeat exposure keeps peoples immune system responsive to it in perpetuity. Pharma companies are going to push boosters forever as they make money on it.

The missing piece in ALL APIs in the world
If you've ever designed an API endpoint, I have a question for you! How to handle business rule violations?

This is a missing piece in ALL APIs in the world, because it's missing in the specs.
People do handle the business rules violations, but do they handle them correctly? Why it's not handled the same way across different APIs? Where this inconsistency comes from
SI units ARE arbitrary in the context of humans. A foot is derived from a physical size of human feet. So the size of the units is human-scaled in ways that SI never are.

That said, in engineering school we never used imperial, only SI. And it was far easier. But that's not the general public.

Related to this:

Fahrenheit: Human-scaled temperature

Celsius: Water-scaled temperature

Kelvin: Atom-scaled temperature
> As for what this means for vaccines: It is by now widely accepted that a vaccination drastically reduces the effects of a COVID19 infection and all but eliminates the risk of fatal outcomes and that in billions of people vaccinated by billions of doses of various vaccines the side effects were negligibly small, and it is widely accepted that even in young healthy people, COVID19 can cause severe, even long-term cases. Therefore, the potential risks of vaccination are nowhere near as risky as risking the infection with the actual pathogen.

The vaccination discussion you're trying to have has already been settled. The panel was not revisiting the approved 2-dose course. It was considering the benefits and risks of a third (booster) jab for individuals aged 16 and above.

If you had listened to the panel, you'd understand the vote: there is not enough data at this time to conclude that the benefits outweigh the risks for a booster in such a broad group.

I don't agree with "No Silver Bullet". The idea that no single advance in software engineering can make an order or more magnitude of difference in productivity.

Software, like every other area of endeavor, contains no inherent barriers to major advances relative to regular advances.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Silver_Bullet

Many laws of "can't" are just dressed up pessimism. Many things never happened before they did.

I am not saying such an advance will happen. Just that it could.
No, but assuming a windows binary executing a Linux binary is somehow bypassing (some) heuristics, etc...

Aside from the specifics of the case, the contrast of headlines is interesting. CNBC says "FDA panel rejects ...". Bloomberg says: "FDA Advisers Back a Narrower Authorization for Pfizer Booster"

Reminds me of an old Soviet-era joke. Ronald Reagan and Leonid Brezhnev race the 100 meters, and Reagan, being much younger, wins the race. Headline in the Pravda: "Brezhnev places second, Reagan second-to-last".
On the contrary, France is royally screwed this time.
Tailscale without a central server is raw Wireguard, basically. You can do that but then you lose Tailscale's automatic NAT traversal and packet relay fallbacks for when UDP is blocked or NAT traversal fails.

Or you can self-host Tailscale with https://github.com/juanfont/headscale if you want.

I fell into a massive YouTube recommendation vortex two 1/2 years ago when my barista basically insisted I take all his Cafe's coffee grounds home and compost them. I had no idea how to compost (he was sick of telling customers it was going into landfill. every. single. day). I now have over 20kg's of worms spread over 30+ worm bins and I'm taking organic residue from all over the district and turning it into valuable soil amendments. I never thought 5 years ago I would now be on the cusp of leaving digital marketing and going into manufacturing soil amendments. Profoundly life changing experience.

In March 2021 the FDA authorized the Adaptive Biotechnologies T-Detect test which assays one aspect of memory T cell responses. It's disappointing that most recent studies still aren't routinely using that test in combination with PCR and antibody tests. It could give us a more complete picture of population immunity levels and changes following infection or vaccination.

The FDA as it is today is not up to the task of managing our medical system
This is a partial account of how the FDA and the medical establishment failed America in fighting COVID-19, and how the inherent structure of the FDA made the pandemic worse. They prevented individuals and companies from creating and providing timely drugs and tests to combat COVID-19, contributing to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans and trillions of dollars of lost economic output.

It's not a visible form difference, but women tend to naturally use smaller and weaker muscles than men for pull-ups. Men are more likely to naturally use the larger back muscles. Women's fitness magazines have articles about practicing engaging the right muscles.

I've seen intermediate women (amateur gymnasts) do 10x the number of pull-ups as truly novice men (20+ vs. barely being able to do 2). We probably have different definitions of novice.
> are the cars going to vanish if the debts aren't paid for a year?

No, but the retirees who depend on the income from bonds packaged from those debts will be screwed. Also, cars might not vanish but they do depreciate regardless of whether money exists. That's still a cost incurred by the rental company even though no money changes hands when it happens.

Ultimately the car companies were overleveraged and were forced to exit before their "positions" in cars became profitable. There's nothing short of the state propping you up that can solve that.

Even the Soviet Union had money and had to deal with economical realities. One of the reasons they collapsed was because of increasing grain production deficits causing an imbalance of trade. You can't legislate your way out of the market because the market's invisible hand will always show eventually, even if you can stave it off via state control of everything.

Many designs does this implicitly. At least one, the original iPhone keyboard autocomplete/suggestion algorithm, did it explicitly.

Ken Kocienda's book Creative Selection has a very good chapter on the algorithm being built piece by piece, but finding out words being created by surrounding keys was part of collecting all the candidates.

They even used this in marketing. One of the pre-original-iPhone-launch videos was focused just on the on-screen keyboard (probably because almost everyone thought it was a really kooky idea at the time), and used the example of explicitly pressing "O-U-Z-Z-A" but still getting "pizza" as the autocomplete because it was the closest recommendation.

One of the iOS versions a few years ago became incredibly fond of including the space bar and considering alternatives with slightly off key presses near the space bar split into two or more words. When you're using a language with a lot of compound words like Swedish, this yielded some almost postmodern corrections with one or more words often completely different (but close on the keyboard, of course). I don't know if this was a tweak to the manual algorithm going off the rails or an AI version that wasn't quite tuned well yet.
It also seems patently obvious that in order for the vaccinated immune system to destroy the virus, one must first have the virus in the body, i.e. be infected with the virus.

This will take a non-zero amount of time. Hence, a vaccinated person can in the interim test positive for the virus, even if the vaccine protection is working perfectly fine.

That 13.8 billion light years isn't a constant of the universe. It's a temporary condition, an accident of the particular instant in which you happen to be looking. There's nothing fundamental about it, so the fact that you got it out of an arbitrary arrangement of other values is a coincidence.

I see this a lot nowadays. It just keeps recycling the same things and feels stale.

I remember about a year ago, it got into a weird state where I watched an old Cat Power music video, then every time I looked at recommendations on other videos it was recommending it, again and again... I'd watch the video again to hopefully make it go away, and it would still keep recommending it. It was very strange. I ended up just choosing "Don't recommend this" on it.
That's just the title of the submitted article. If we'd seen it at the time, we would have vaporized it...but no one bats a hundred :)
