I don't know what did you expect. That 1/1k died?

From 32,379 vaccine doses in Ottawa area they identified 32 cases that came to the hospital center. Hence it is likely under-reported.

> Time from last vaccination to presentation with symptoms was a median of 1.5 days

Seems statistically unlikely to be spurious correlation.

> Cardiac MRI confirmed acute myocardial and pericardial changes with the presence of edema demonstrated with both tissue mapping and late gadolinium enhancement.

Not really sure what it means, but doesn't seem like NBD.

AFAIU, COVID vaccines exhibits activity all¹ over the body, unlike typical predominantly injection-site localized vaccines. Hence issues are to be expected. Vaccine may be notably or even strictly better than getting infected, but it's not risk-free nor side-effect free. Downplaying negative reactions does no good. It only confirms antivax doubts about presented information.

Patients were OK when they left, but the vaccine clearly causes some level of issues. IUUC, and if study is correct, in this case incidence of heart inflammation was at least 1 in 1k, those being severe enough that people actually went to a Heart Institute - seems notable. And it may have long-term consequences.

No thanks. I really enjoy eating meat and can source it from environmentally responsible sources in addition to raising my own pigs for meat. The "Lets stop eating meat" is a hollow path forward. How about instead we eat more meat that is raised in ways that increase the fertility of the land and capture more carbon? it's totally viable if you are willing to spend more...
carbon taxes under most systems are revenue neutral. Here in Canada, most people recieve more back then they payed in, because the highest income brackets emit disproportionately.
This article could have sparked sympathy in me since I am gradually and slowly making my way to a full Linux dev workflow on a laptop with 2TB NVMe SSD, 32GB and a pretty good CPU (Ryzen 5500U) but... the kinda sorta ideological language the author used in the article is really unfortunate.

(And believe me, it's a huge cognitive dissonance to convince yourself out of using the iMac Pro as much as you can...)

Look, if it doesn't work for you anymore, alright. Move to Linux. Most of us the devs will eventually move to it anyway I think, since Apple just doesn't care about dev ergonomics -- especially with scanning each binary you run; try working under Linux for a week and you'll say to yourself "gosh, computers can be FAST!" -- but truthfully, many employers don't care about our ergonomics as well and they are OK with the lost productivity of waiting for tools to just... run, you know.

I agree Apple Music is a train wreck though, that's a fact.

In any case, I wish people learned to just make two small lists with pros and cons and be done with it. Using language like the quote in the start:

> I realised that my life while using Apple products is controlled by Product Managers/Owners who want to get a raise, rather than by technology people who share the same passion as me. And I wanted to change that.

...is true to an extent but it gives you exactly zero things that are actually and visibly wrong. (Obviously this is an exaggeration, e.g. they mention subscription model vs. paying for stuff once which is valid, but my overall point is about things that are technical, not business-level.)

So, good for him I suppose but the article could have been written in a much more compelling and factual manner.
Yeah. This title should be reverted to the title on the page.

A container-based approach to boot a full Android system on a regular GNU/Linux system like Ubuntu.

This could be simplified to:

WayDroid: Containerized Android for GNU/Linux

But as it is now, the title has been changed to be confusing.
I use linux+i3 at work, but personally have a mac. The main thing stopping me from ditching the mac is how convenient it is to swap files/photos between the iphone and mac, whether it’s through icloud or airdrop. Perhaps a nice solution exists for transferring files between iphone and linux, but I haven’t found one.
My point was that your comment was wrong as it only applies to the USA.

> the USA is a large country of >300M people. It must lead in humanity's work towards reducing GHG

Getting China to stop coal would be more effective than getting the USA to stop beef.
That's true for some countries, not all.
Yes, that article is nearly four years old. Since then, Swift has evolved considerably.

Steve Troughton-Smith has tweeted recently about his work in converting all of his apps to Swift over the last year [1]. "I will remember ObjC and the times we had together fondly, but after a year of being Swift-only I prefer making apps with it" [2]. "I also wouldn’t change the timeline in which I adopted Swift ... I don’t feel I lost out on anything positive by waiting" [3].

Marco Arment has talked about using Swift in new development for Overcast, although I don't believe he's rewriting existing code. He seems more open to Swift these days than when that article was written. (Can't find a quotable source at present)

Marcel Weiher has continued working on a language now called Objective-S, which sounds like the "more Smalltalk-y" language that other commenters have wished for: "Objective-S includes an Objective-C compatible runtime model, but using a much simpler and consistent Smalltalk-based syntax." [4]

Of course, "creepy" is relative and contextual. The way we interpret the morality of the ancient Greek gods and other such beings is not necessarily the way their native cultures would have seen them. Zeus being a profligate shapeshifting rapist was not a big deal in a society where women were granted the same degree of consent as cattle.
What I find most disturbing is that even after I've copied the character to vim to prove to myself that it shows its actual name, I then find myself looking elsewhere for a picture because I simply don't trust my fonts.

This might be case where I'd actually prefer a box, so that I am a little less confuzzled.

You won't find yourself by seeking distraction. You need to eliminate distractions and feel the pain of boredom, which will motivate you to try things.
It was great to finally get PlotAPI (https://plotapi.com) working with Jupyter Lab, Notebook, Google Colab, and VS Code...

They all have their own versions of packages used for displaying video/images/HTML, and how they handle the inclusion of external JavaScript, e.g. where Jupyter Notebook (classic) uses Require JS

I hope the Desktop App doesn't introduce another variation!
As pvg said, it's best to post such links to the original thread, to prevent thread splitting — and also because we often change URLs when we see such links - e.g. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...
They have the transparency to supplier costs but it's so variable and granular that it's not meaningful to discuss.

Drugs in a clinical setting are priced on a per unit basis (which might be per mL), usually with a flat markup over cost. In practice, that can mean a patient getting IV drug treatment could receive two different charges for the same drug in the same day. If it's a hard to find drug and they deplete batch 1 from supplier A, then administer batch 2 from supplier B, the cost per unit could change by multiplies.

Using the earlier airline example, it's like trying to say what the cost of a generic flight is. The answer is always going to be it depends.

Combining that kind of cost structure with a transparency requirement means you get unusable, and as parent commenter mentioned, laughable results. It's not malicious compliance driving this garbage price transparency, it's a fundamental misunderstanding of how the healthcare system works.
You don't need a math phd to code it either, you just need skill and motivation.

That might be correlated with having a phd, but it isn't mandatory.

EDIT: I physically cannot comprehend how what I have said is somehow worthy of a negative reaction.
I don't think that's necessarily always true. I do think that it can be very, very dangerous if your business doesn't _exaxtly_ fit whatever the prevailing thesis du jour is for how VCs decide that unicorns are made.

The reason I say that is because you're basically dealing with two classes of customers at that point. One for your product and one for your equity, and if there's gross misalignment with either you're going to have a bad time. If the latter fundamentally doesn't understand the former, you'll have a bad time.
They just mean juniors are having a harder time picking up skills from more senior people who have already been in the industry for a while because it's harder in a remote environment.
some things are less-great in the FOSS world. I used MetroWerks tooling that really, really was nice. I even wrote code for them once .. it has been a long while and the real win with Jupyter is the massive popularity I think.
Sure but reducing meat consumption is oversimplifying. If you reduce meat consumption of grass-fed cattle, there's no point.
It can do. Digital switching of analogue signal paths can absolutely be done. MAX335/336/337-type chips are one way of doing it, and they've been around for decades.

I don't think the metrics is always speed. I think it is efficiency (quality_of_work.hour).
You cannot feasibly provide any level of acceptable human support and remain “free” with a huge user base. Meanwhile, being “free” is crucial if your actual paying customer is the advertisers. If you stop being free, you (gasp) normalize paid service. Suddenly you are conflicted and fighting two fronts, you compete with other paid services, your users can actually demand things and vote with their money, etc.

> "I am proud of what the team has achieved, from unleashing the benefits of AI..."

I think almost everyone outside Facebook is seething with rage and worrying about the future of democracy because of the AI they unleashed.
100%. All the histrionics would be screaming ENLIGHTENEDCENTRISM! You support the status quo! You're alt-right/Nazi adjacent with your complicitness! etc. ad nauseam.

smoldesu's take is refreshing, even though he's absolutely be skewered for it if he dared to say it on the company Slack.
There is, very obviously. They're exploiting the fact that most people are lazy and dumb. "You don't need to look into the details. You don't need to give up eating meat when lab-grown is just around the corner. Invest in the future!" While in reality cutting down on meat consumption or even going vegetarian/vegan would be the better option. Plant based meat-replacement products are another promising option.

There are so many examples of such hype. Take the recent peddling of psychedelic drugs as a treatment for everything. Companies collect a lot of cash with the investment hype forming around this. But of course all your mental health problems don't magically disappear with DMT. It's this exploitative society and our lifestyles that make more and more people sick. It's ultimate the same Peter Thiels who also sell you the cure that are part of the problem in the first place.
Or better, support a grassroots movement. $500k/years is plenty.
Pretty much this. Also, I’m not sure most people realise how incremental LiveView can be. You can use it for a little widget on any page and later swap in a react component if you truly need one (which most apps probably don’t).

It’s not designed to run the NY Times. But it is a super useful tool that will benefit a ton of apps out there.
The nice thing about being an adult and going to church is that if you don't like it... you don't have to be there? There are many competing churches in the United States. The same cannot be said realistically of social media.
It's not a void though. It's a distraction.

And as much as I dislike the evils that come with alcohol (not in a religious sense, just the problems it causes), at least you get out and interact with real people.
Installing the language and trying to figure out if its working is a big hurdle to a lot of beginners. Getting an intuitive interface is too. CLI is not intuitive to a first time coder.

A single download with relevant packages, bundled python env, and a nice front end interface (jupyterlab) sounds like a great idea to me.
I agree that a regulation is needed for certain things. What I don’t agree is Epic bullying it’s way because that (assumed) they can.

BTW the %30 is fine considering the service they give. They handle the international trade part of the business, which is vastly different from what Walmart does. If you were to sell directly to customers, you would have to incorporate in each and every country there is(because you need to pay taxes and comply to the laws where your clients are), which is something that Epic can do but small developers can’t. Thanks to Apple, a kid with a computer can directly compete against international corporations. Also, Apple provides many if the technology that enables these apps. There’s no comparison between what a supermarket does and Apple does.
Can you imagine how many, very boring articles, there would be if everyone did write that article.

'I needed windows for some work stuff, so I went onto dell and bought the thing in the middle of the price range.'
I am not saying that the questions are outright harmful, just supporting another person's remark that "this comment reads really strangely".

There is no harm in asking whether the 1000$ car at the used car dealership comes with cars that open like wings either, but it would sound strange.
The point here is that investors are promised not "probable breakthrough in next few decades" but "in 2030s we'll feed the world".
I really wanted to use it at my last job, where we had a Go backend and a React SPA and a sprawling, ad hoc RESTish API in between that was only used by the SPA.

We were mostly split between Reactors and Gophers, and the amount of time we spent arguing about the API and implementing it... I'd say was easily one third of the word, if not more, that would have just gone away if we didn't have to worry about the details of the data we were moving back and forth.

My current job is a bit too front-end heavy for LiveView to make sense. But I still keep an eye on Phoenix. It really feels like it could be a secret weapon, at least until every one else adopts a similar pattern.
Meat is still a problem, for all the areas I've listed above. If you're willing to neglect that reality for something tasting good, you're absolutely right that food choices aren't logical (at least in your personal case).

You're also welcome to provide evidence that something like Beyond beef is less healthy than it's flesh counterpart. With zero cholesterol in any plant-based product, though, I have a feeling you're going to encounter some difficulty.
Many great ideas sound ridiculous at first. That's why most people don't build new things. Convincing people that insects are a good food source is far less of a challenge than what many successful companies have done (or hope to do).
Absolutely, but the difference is that no one church is dominant in the United States. Even if we were to claim that Catholicism (the largest faction, although not a majority by any means) were the dominant one, within that church there is also a lot of diversity of thought. As an adult, you can realistically pick and choose with whom to associate at these churches, unlike say Twitter or Facebook where are beholden to whatever religion they follow.
You get paid $28 to corona test people.

We’re actually in a shortage of both unskilled and skilled labour, or you could say, we’re in a shortage of people who are willing to work for $22 an hour in general.

It’s actually really hurting a lot of of the service industry. Covid forces their cooks, clerks and waiters into other jobs and none of them are coming back now that we’re done with the pandemic.

Places like McD get around this by using part time students. Which is sort of where the article also gets things wrong, because they don’t get the same benefits a fulltime employee gets, well not exactly at least.

no.

>If not what percentage of their life is on the feedlot?

about half.
I wonder how the amyloid plaques not being thought to be the cause of Alzheimers will affect the research of CTE (one of the many other tauopathies.)

For what it is worth, there seems to be a lot of internal debate around the causes, symptoms, and treatments of CTE. In fact, there are debates as to whether CTE is a distinct tauopathy or even exists at all (at least in the form the public understands it).
That would be a gift to every other country that doesn't follow suit.
>If I was someone with money like a celebrity I would want this phone.

I think this part is underestimated by most people. Celebrities are frequently under a microscope and having to live your life while worrying about somebody overhearing it and taking it to the press must be frustrating. Everyone has bad moments in their lives, but at least for most of us these won't be dragged up and published to the world. A device like this could help alleviate that fear a little bit.
> I realised that my life while using Apple products is controlled by Product Managers/Owners who want to get a raise, rather than by technology people who share the same passion as me. And I wanted to change that.

There is some truth to Apple's engineering being directed by product managers who want raises - which (given that Apple is a large company) would generally require directing it toward Apple's bottom line and promoting Apple's goods and services.

At the same time there are a number of smart people at Apple, in both product management and engineering, who work there in order to advance good design, ease of use, reliability, privacy, and the development of computing technology that benefits and empowers its users - and not just the company that sells it.

Moreover, pretty much everyone at Apple knows that you don't create transformative products by bean counting and risk aversion.

But if you want something built by and for a community of technical enthusiasts, hobbyists, researchers, and hackers/tinkerers, open source software and disaggregated systems may be a superior ecosystem for you, and that's a good thing because a vibrant enthusiast and free/open software and hardware community provides many benefits to the world.
Those businesses aren't sustainable then. A recent example given here was 24/7 gas station workers. The only reason they were working overnight was because wages have become cheap enough to capture the few overnight customers.

A higher wage means that the business is forced to have the employee on more productive work.
so true! I've been trying to figure out a way to get my social sciences student friend learn programming and I was dreading to install python/conda/jupyter ? on their computer. A single-click jupyter app with electron indeed sounds like a lifesaver.

Any recommendations for the DAC? I'm using a USB sound card right now on my Volumio Pi but haven't been thrilled about it. What I really want is SPDIF coaxial or optical output, on the cheap.
To be fair it probably works tho.
To be fair, I remember the story of the guy that designed the drug cartel's radio system[1]. And I share your dislike of facilitating bad actors.

That said, having met the "ad tech" industry[2] when doing a search engine I can say there are a large number of people who are perfectly happy to take the money from bad actors with a "perfectly legal" product and reasonable deniability.

But all of these schemes have a certain "addressable market" and an "expected return" which are hard to judge. Putting numbers to the "completely anonymous" phone scam was interesting.

[1] https://www.wired.com/2012/11/zeta-radio/

[2] And to be clear, there are legitimate folks trying to do ad tech in legitimate ways, but there is also a lot of fraud in ad tech which involves setting up networks to take money from advertisers and feed it to bad actors.

No it's not.

The article makes a bunch of points about economics, and those may be true now, but there are many products widely available today that were at one point considered impossible to produce at significant scale.

That said, I think the article raises a few fundamental limits that probably cannot be currently overcome: 1 - animal cell division times are far too long, and 2 - animal cell cultures would be highly susceptible to viral and bacterial contamination, which could completely kill an entire culture. It seems like we could genetically engineer our way out of these problems, but a tractable solution is probably decades away.
Any paid Google service with an SLA is perfectly fine.

The choice between Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace should mostly be a matter of taste.

Google Workspace is very straightforward and largely offers better finish and UX. I personally dislike Google's material design and find myself confused by it, but most people seem fine with it.

M365 Business Standard on the other hand is arguably a better deal if you value the macOS and Windows versions of Microsoft's office apps. The UI isn't always good and the web versions suck, but everything is also very flexible and intended to scale to almost everything the IT dept of a Fortune 500 companies with tricky compliancy requirements might require to control a fleet of Windows machines.
Glad it wasn't just me. How is it that slow with gigabit connection?

From the dictionary literally:

> to create an unpleasant or hostile situation for especially by uninvited and unwelcome verbal or physical conduct

If the situation is expressed(felt) by employees as hostile or unwelcome (those who were target of the political view), then by definition it can be considered as harassement, if it is visible somehow. It does not need to go the court to be.
