The major turning points were still more like battles from the Napoleonic Wars than WWI.

It's also much easier with hindsight to view them as precursors to the trench warfare of WWI. But I believe contemporaries viewed it more like classic siege warfare.

WWI occurred in a brief window where defensive technology/strategy was much more effective* than offensive technology/strategy.

*defense almost ways is easier, but it was much more than normal in that period.
I vouched for your comment. You're allowed to believe whatever irrational things you'd like and comment about them as much as you'd like as far as I'm concerned. Seems it got flagged to death even after the vouch, though.

Let's, however, consider your inane views on the RNA vaccines (note that not only is this what everyone refers to them as, it's also the case that they are very specifically NOT therapies as they are meant to be prophylactic to disease rather than treat disease).

> such as the Israeli pre-print from three weeks ago showing that The gene therapy is less effective than natural immunity by a factor of 13 to 27 times)

Do you really have no idea why that's a stupid attack on the vaccines? The idea that natural immunity is superior to vaccine acquired immunity says NOTHING about whether or not a vaccine provides immunity. If A > B, that doesn't mean that B = 0.

Not only that, but the same study showed that natural immunity + vaccine > natural immunity. So by your inane logic, natural immunity alone does nothing!

But even with this study by all accounts being valid, what policy decisions would you change based on it? It's not like we would stop vaccinations!

What's more you're concerned that people are ignoring these 119 studies but you yourself claimed there was literally no evidence of effect for the vaccines when there are hundreds of studies (including your cited Israeli study for God's sake!) showing their effectiveness!

Beyond all of that, I know of 1 good RCT for Ivermectin in the Together Trial (1500 patients unlike the comedy of many of the studies you quote) and uh, no effect. Weirdly, they do find really great effect from Fluvoxamine and yet you quacks never decided to pursue that for some reason...
Good point. Before I comment I usually read the article if I haven't.
Saying 'I Do' to Brands
As Selfridges, a UK based department store, gets in on hosting weddings, Saks Fifth Avenue begins its attempt to host the workday. Both attempts portend a future where a layering of branding will insert itself into lives where none previously existed. This article focuses on the repercussions of those efforts.
In everything except the most exceptional circumstances knowing what to build will be a blend of written requirements and shared knowledge within the team. You can advocate for comprehensive requirements which pushes the effort towards the written spec side, or you can advocate for "working software over comprehensive documentation" which pushes the effort towards using more shared knowledge. Depending on the nature of your project, one or the other might be preferable.

For most projects, both "knowing what to build" and "working software" will never be 100% clear.
Hopefully you've stumbled across the fact that one of the recent low-level simmering news stories is more supply line issues. So it'd probably be best to have a week or two of daily necessities handy, like during the pandemic, just in case.
One doesn't imply the other, but it is certainly happening. People are using (being led to use) ivermectin as a prophylactic against covid, an alternative to the vaccine.

> Couple that with mass and energy ultimately being limited then there is a strong incentive and advantage in becoming as large as possible.

Unless you can transmit power over infinite disctance without loss, you get diminishing returns as you expand. Eventually the amount of energy you can beam back from a new dyson swarm does not justify the cost of building a new dyson swarm. There is no incentive to expand beyond that point. For reasonable engineering estimates, such a range is still very small on galactic scales.
Would love to get some feedback on M1 for development.

I am used to work in Linux OS VM(Virtualbox and Vagrant in MacOS) and do most PHP/Python web development. It seems that Virtualbox won't be supported and There is only one Linux VM option available [UTM](https://github.com/utmapp/UTM)

I would hate to invest too much time for a new dev environment just for M1. How's your experience?
I've had junior engineers outperforming senior engineers, even counting the hours I had to spend correcting and guiding.

Some engineers are just slow. I don't think it's much correlated with experience. If your goal was never to be a super productive programmer, I don't think you'll ever become one.

This might also be why there is this spectre of agism in the industry. Everyone knows there's greybeards out there that would eat your lunch and get paid the big bucks, but at the same time older programmers have hard times interviewing. At that age most of the really great programmers have probably already been fished out of the pond.

Sure, but at a limited scale. And the Germans knew that a trench duel was unwinnable going into ww1, hence the Schlieffen-plan. The intention was to take out France in aug 1914 and then swing around before Russia was even fully mobilized.
It's especially a problem with motorcycles because many of your natural fear based reactions are exactly wrong for the situation.

Example: you come into a corner a little fast, see you are going a bit wide, fixate on the ditch/edge of road, get afraid and hit the brakes - which stands the bike up and drives you wide; sometimes right off the road.

The right response here is to look away from the ditch to the line you want on the other side of the lane and lean into it more. Easier said than done if you are afraid or anxious.
Depends on how you define the term.

Historically, the term came up in the verge of Web 2.0 and was distinct from other social online media in that a specific software was the basis for each respective SN.

So for example Twitter is SN because you had the app on the phone that was only Twitter so that was SN. But an online forum was not, because everybody could obtain the same software and run a forum.

So by that defition HN is social media.
So, it's better than US made spyware which cannot be removed from "our" PC CPUs? Best we can do is "disable" these features in the BIOS/UEFI and sleep well, even though we nothing's really stopped.

Sorry for the whataboutism but I am lot less concerned about Chinese spyware because I know for a fact that my government serves the EU and the US.

All this anti China propaganda is really tiresome. China this, China that. Someone seems really scared. Fuck this someone

An interesting and observable self metric I've been able to use to assess my mental acuity has been to look at my statistics on clearing 40 lines in Tetris. (tetr.io if anyone else is interested)

On fully rested, deep sleep days, I can drop the tetronimoes at 1.5 to 1.6 pieces per second (pps), while, sleep deprived states (4-5 hours), no matter how hard I try (and it "feels" like I'm performing very fast) drops to 1.2-1.3 pps.

There's also a bit of a qualitative measure on how difficult it was to sustain focus for the 1 minute to 1.5 minutes that gives me an idea of my ability to focus and perform.

I agree. I think the only plausible path forward is taxing digital advertising revenue. People wouldn't pay for this trash infotainment and it is only free because ads make it highly profitable. I think this is the great trick that the oligarchy has pulled off: they have convinced us that our neighbor is the cause of our ills and not them. I think the other problem remains that the world is too fast and complicated now. It is impossible to be up to date on a single issue let alone all of them. We are so fatigued by all the yelling and just want to be with our families and make it through the week. We don't have the energy left to be watch dogs or organize protests against injustice.

OK, this is increasingly off-topic, but I’m just getting into Eurorack and I’ve been become curious about analog computers… not because I know anything about them, but because they share a user-interface style.

Can you speak to similarities between them? You seem to know a bit about both topics.
"We discussed our concerns with the specialist doctor who has treated her for years. The doctor researched the topic and reached the opinion that she is at increased risk of severe adverse effects due to her condition. We presented to the authorities a note written by the doctor detailing my wife's situation and the conclusion that vaccination is therefore not worth the risk for her.

Our request was rejected. My wife will not receive an exemption from the Opportunity Pass restrictions. We received no explanation. As far as we know, there is no appeal.

We don't know what happened in her case. But in general, our government is opposed to medical exemptions. The authorities have announced that they only allow medical exemptions in cases where a certified allergist doctor finds, through extensive documented testing, that a person is severely allergic to the substance within the vaccine (anaphylactic reactions). In an interview, an official of the Ministry of Health stated that such an allergy is the only allowable exemption and the Ministry dislikes "the tendency to use medical excuses as a justification to not vaccinate"."

they have now undermined doctor-patient trust.
What's "decomposition analysis" and how can I do it at home?

Since others here are curious, how would one go replicating these results to find the MiAdBlacklistConfig file? Can I download the OS from a website and just search for strings in the MiAdBlacklistConfig file? I'm genuinely interested, rather than using this question to cast doubt on the 32 page research report.
I detest talking on the phone. I also accept that there are some people who I'm just not going to get around to arranging a meetup with, as there are too many demands on my time. I don't look at Facebook any more but I follow a lot of illustrators and animators on instagram so my feed is usually full of their interesting stuff. There are few enough people that I can catch up easily if I don't check for a day or two. I also follow friends who've moved to different part of the country and can see how their kids are doing, although I have never posted a pic of my boy on social media (and never will until he can give informed consent).

This reminds me how jarring it is to read a non-US-centric view on world news when I've habituated myself to US-centric sources.
I agree that that is a problem with the system back then (and even now considering how much military power is under the POTUS). Regardless, those are the ones that are in charge so I think it is fair to say we, as in the society was not prepared for those conflicts.

And this repeated itself in the second world war. The late battles near japanese homeland were the first to reach the United States population without the heroic and patriotic filtering, all thanks to the work of Tom Lea.

If Google privacy invasion is what you fear, then there are simpler solutions. Simply installing lineageOS on a supported android device yields a functioning, de-googlified phone. Install only open source apps (from F-Droid, for example) and you're all set.

Android itself containerizes/isolates apps, with better & better security features in modern versions. LineageOS also adds their own layer of security (ex-PrivacyGuard) on top.

Granted, not all phones are created equal, meaning some of them will have restrictive bootloaders/need more proprietary drivers. It's possible some of them have spyware built in their bootloader/recovery/hardware, although I haven't heard of it. And of course there's 0 fully open-source android hardware phones.

Which, speaking of... this would be excellent on pinephone, which runs linux. Would allow running android apps on it, which is very very useful of course. I might finally bite the bullet and buy it...

What's different between this and anbox (other than support, focus, etc)?

How good is the 3d support, ie: Does it support a modern version of OpenGL ES? Can it process that via host hardware support (a la angle or similar)? Can it do that headlessly without an window server running on the host? Can the video output of the app be easily captured by nvenc or intel/amd equivalent?

Is arm translation supported natively or does it require plugins for the abi translation?

Are google's libraries (play services, play store, webview) or alternatives easy to install/supported?

Can the app data and system volume be mounted externally?

Can the system details (cpuid/flags, device name/mfg/model, android OS specifics) be provided/spoofed?

Can sensor inputs (gps location, tilt, multi-touch gestures, battery level, network status, camera/s) be easily simulated or passed from host sensor to the guest app? Can bluetooth be passed through from the host?

Would love for somebody to crush this space and not pivot immediately into commercial offering.

yes, middle class is typically just well-off working class, but with some investments or savings that generate profit for them. I think technically, middle class is associated with small business owners and the self-employed who both own capital, and labour - but people with moderate investments who still work are also receiving capital gains; they're just not capitalist class because they still have to labour to survive.
No. People (like myself) are ultimately using it for a distraction from something more important or a dopamine rush when someone "likes" something you post. You're better off.
I get where you are coming from, but I think that there is a nuance that you have missed. Like many, many drugs - and vaccines - ivemectin has some unpleasant and dangerous side effects in some people rarely. You can see these if you look the drug up :https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/ivermectin-oral-ta... for example.

The point is that if this drug did help people make it through covid (like the vaccines do) then it would be worth the risk of these horrible things happening - if they were rare (they are). But unfortunately it looks like this is not true, so people are taking a risk of having a horrid side effect with no chance of the pill working.

On the other hand if you take the pill to avoid river blindness then the risk of the side effect seems well worth taking to me. But not for covid - 0 benefit for 0.001 risk is not good trade.

> a fab will loose the competitive advantage in just two years

Not really. First, almost all fabs for modern chipset structures are located in Taiwan which means China won't invade Taiwan for a fab but for all fabs.

Second, the market is glowing so white hot that - even assuming China manages to take over all Taiwanese fabs intact and with staff cooperating, which is quite unlikely - there will be more demand than supply for many years to come.

I don't think any of these politickers are lying. I think they start with valid critiques of pretty straightforward things, and then extrapolate them into ridiculous conclusions. In a way our polarization is a result of extreme left-brained thinking without the tempering of wisdom.

Listening to a 3 hour unfamiliar narrative doesn't give you many places to go afterwards. It's just a huge dump that binds together many various points, and whether you found it insightful or not has more to do with presentation and self-consistency rather than it making sense in a larger context.

two ^official^ sides
Consistency allows even the worst process to become familiar enough to be improved on and reduces the overload of having to context switch unexpectedly, and it's amazing how much time can be wasted by people not knowing what process to use and having to either waste someone else's time to find out or do whatever their best guess is, probably wasting time much later on.

If you've ever seen someone operating a terrible piece of old data entry software they've been using for decades it's amazing how fast someone can be even at jumping through pointless hoops to get the job done - often a problem when introducing a newer process that might seem more efficient from the outside!
