Outside of the US is prescribed quite often. It is in the Mexican Health System Protocol ([1] page 6) and has been widely researched [2] in there. Also, in Mexico Ivermectin was widely available (without prescription) before Covid19. It is commonly used in children against lice, and also in the general population as a dewormer once a year (in Mexico, people are used to take these type of medications once a year).

I understand the hesitation Americans have against it, given its lack of availability (I would never consume a medicine made for animals) but from my outside perspective, the issue has been politicized so much that both "left" and "right" Americans get blinded by their views and are not open to even talk about it (it's either, you eat dewormer antivaxxer! or muh freedom!).

I got my two vaccines as soon as I could (I had covid in march 2020 and had a terrible time, and I am totally pro vaccines, shit in Mexico we get a heck of a lot of vaccines haha) but given the safety profile of Ivermectin, I am 100% in favour of people taking it if they get COVID19.

People often categorise themselves as middle class just because they have a decent job and a mortgage - they are in fact just labour. None of their income comes from capital.

Middle class is mostly a myth, unless you can quit your job and maintain your lifestyle, you are labour, not capital.

What Is Evergrande and Is It Going to Blow Up the Economy?
But the point is that renting is significantly cheaper than owning a home- so you take the difference and put it in the market every month. That's the key point- that the monies invested in the market over time will beat however much your house appreciated (minus the costs of owning a home in that timeframe, minus the costs of selling, which are usually very significant). If you're in a market where renting is more expensive than owning a home, of course it makes more sense to own.

There are calculators out there for comparing rent vs. buy options in various metro areas. That's one mistake Bruenig made, what's true for his area might not necessarily be true in a different city
I don't know how I feel about the whole, locality pay thing. I still feel it is not ethical to pay developers in Eastern Europe what we typically pay them.

I don't see easy solutions to this problem when I look at it from both hiring and hiree perspectives. Capitalism...........

But they lack a navy sufficient to control the open seas. They can control their territorial waters well enough with their anti-air and anti-naval systems but beyond that they don't have the reach. Basically neither the US nor China can hit each other well enough to make a decisive war so there's no real incentive right now. But I can imagine Xi and company coming up with some nonsensical patriotic reason to get people mad enough to at least embargo the US even if it hurts them more in the long run.

Ask HN: Where do people house internal jobs
Teams I've worked with often have a few scripts that are needed by other non-technical teams or team members. These scripts do things like make a couple of API calls to our backend, or run a SQL query, or generate a monthly report. Typically, we tell these folks to make the calls from Postman. If we're really nice, there might be a Jenkins job they can input a few params into and run (we usually want to keep it simple and avoid building UI's).

Has anyone else run into this problem? It feels weird giving non-technical team members this much access and I'm wondering if there's any better solutions out there.
This is often called "target fixation". The natural inclination is to head towards where you are looking - this can cause a fear driven feedback loop driving you right into an obstacle.
Or you can continue to fight the policies. You don't just bend "a little" for the betterment of the society when the policies aren't actually "for the betterment" of the society. Literate and otherwise-intelligent people will question whether a policy makes sense rather than just blindly follow it. I am more surprised that literate and otherwise-intelligent people who don't even try questioning policies and take whatever the government feeds them.

Rent does not necessarily include a profit margin for the owner. There is a rental market rate and if the landlord's expenses exceed that rate, they can and do rent out the unit at that rate. It's still better than leaving it empty. Loss-making business ventures are common, and if we're talking about owners who have a separate source of income than property ownership, loss-making side hustles are exceedingly common. (there's a lot of complexity that sometimes does incentivize big commercial-property landlords to leave office spaces empty in some cities, but, I think that's a different market yet again)

The nationwide report that everybody talked about, pertaining to poison control centers receiving endless calls about this was completely fake. It turned out that rather than 70% of calls it was actually 2% of calls and over half of them were simply people asking questions about dosage.

The other nationwide report about the hospitals in Oklahoma being crowded with ivermectin victims to the point where they could not even get gunshot victims in to see a doctor... well, at least one of the hospital systems responded with an open letter stating that this was completely fake and that they had not seen even a single patient. I find it hard to believe that one hospital system would not see a single patient while all the other hospitals in the state would be completely flooded with them.

How to Create the Right Content Marketing Strategy for Your E-Commerce Business
Why would you think you have the arbitrary power to walk out on your job, and not have them let you go?

This is why you rarely hear about individual workers going on strike. An individual is expendable. It’s quite another thing when the entire workforce shuts down production by walking out. Sure, you could just fire them all, but your production is still shut down.

The question of legality is not a question of whether an individual worker has the right to walk out (of they do; they are not slaves), or whether employers have a right to fire them (they mostly do). It’s a question of whether workers have the right to organize and coordinate the walking out, or whether this constituted a criminal conspiracy.
The main issue is that people think in terms of USD. The prices on the page would still be USD. Every currency is talked about in terms of it's price in USD.

Why have the extra coins and conversions, as a consumer? Even if the companies want to use them like DerpCoin (see Hermitcraft), they will still have to take USD. So will they really ever gain sufficient usage to warrant the company time / people investment into supporting them?

I also suspect most people are involved in many more economic microsystems, which sounds like a business I transact with by another name.

Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying. Read your sentence back to yourself.

Yes. Of course it is. Regardless of what the copy on some obscure CDC website says, mRNA vaccines have been in development for decades.

>Very strange to see this being mandated by the government in this day and age.

How exactly is this strange? Government mandated vaccines have been around forever. The Supreme Court ruled in the 1905 case, Jacobson v. Massachusetts, that it was within the police power of a state to provide for compulsory vaccination, and ruled again that schools could require vaccination in1922. All 50 states already require vaccinations to attend public school and have for decades. Employers have been able to mandate vaccines for decades.

The government mandates every aspect of vehicle transportation, from road design, to vehicle design, driver insurance, seat belt compliance, and driver impairment, for something that kills 35k people a year. Right or wrong, for a virus that is killing over 400k people a year, I really just don’t understand how this could be seen as surprising in any way.

We decided we wanted to derive cars, but without the harmful effects of being in crashes, so we decided to create safer vehicles. I like some drugs, and a lot of them are okay in some situations with some boundaries... even if a lot of the users are using them for unhealthy reasons in situations that make the drugs problematic.

I like social media-- I'm literally using it right now to communicate with you. But I do that because I value your thought (even though I disagree with it) and I am able to interact with you in a space that both moderates my behavior by giving up/down vote feedback and which doesn't have a lot of tolerance for poor discourse habits.

If you apply those same rubrics to other social media and don't tolerate them when it violates those boundaries, I believe it's possible to use them in healthy ways.

Today I read this post instead of reading further into a book. If I practice reaching for the book instead of HN I may thank myself later, as this forum post is satisfying to complete but otherwise has a low ROI (I tend not to check back soon enough to be part of any discussion). I generally enjoy the life I have, and one action that will make it more enjoyable is to be reading more often, as I find engaging with longer stories over days and weeks to be gratifying.

A Stalkerware Firm Is Leaking Real-Time Screenshots of People's Phones Online
It's all covered in the 32 page research report:

Xiaomi system applications (Security, MiBrowser, Cleaner, MIUI Package Installer and Themes) have been found to regularly download the manufacturer’s updated configuration file MiAdBlacklistConfig from a server located in Singapore. This file contains a list composed of the titles, names and other information of various religious and political groups and social movements (at the time the analysis was performed, 449 records were identified in the MiAdBlacklistConfig file). Analysis of the Xiaomi application code showed that the applications have implemented software classes for filtering the target multimedia displayed on the device according to the downloaded MiAdBlacklistConfig list.
This allows a Xiaomi device to perform an analysis of the target multimedia content entering a phone: to search for keywords based on the MiAdBlacklist list received from the server. When it is determined that such content contains keywords from the list, the device blocks this content. It is thought that this functionality can pose potential threats to the free availability of information.

> He is not sneering at education itself, he is pointing at the (assumed) cultural and political background of that person

You can't untangle those things.

Education is seen as the cause of the "(assumed) cultural and political background of that person", and therefore education becomes the target.
Great way to put it. Hahaha

No, I don't think anyone is, because there are also studies that show no benefit: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3...

However, I've also heard there's a new study coming out from Gilead that demonstrates Remdesivir is highly effective when administered in early treatment.

So perhaps the efficacy depends when treatment is given. And if that's the case, then meta-studies actually become very important, because they can reveal hidden factors like dosage, demographic, when to administer treatment, etc.

China has no qualms invading privacy of anybody. They will try any and every way to get whatever they need and they are pretty effective at it.

Ever read about making business in China? What we call cheating or stealing is a standard business practice there. If you point it out they will back off and try somewhere else, ad nauseam. It is practically part of Chinese culture and upbringing.

Why do you think "chinese" is practically synonym to "cheap and most likely defective"?

With all the criticism of the mRNA and other COVID vaccines, which actually do have science backing them up, what is the science that would make ivermectin actually work? It's an antiparasitic drug. I see a lot of criticism of the COVID vaccines, especially from the right, but then they are fine taking hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin if there is any glimmer of hope that they will work. I just don't get it. Maybe, just maybe, it's not all some big conspiracy, and the vaccines were actually designed to help people? Is that so far fetched? Doesn't taking something random like hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin seem more far fetched? It does to me.
> China understands that wars of expansion rarely have worked since WWII.

Wars of expansion can and do still work, all it needs is for the rest of the world to stand aside just as they did in 1933-45 - and the signs don't look good, given that the reaction for Russian and Chinese annexation projects was nothing more than a couple ineffective sanctions.
Something like this will never be profitable to assemble by hand. It's not a matter if it being a small quantity or not.
...But not over stalling the mRNA vaccines for half a year
This is a colossal strawman of an article, suggesting that a 10x engineer is someone who simply churns out features faster with a high degree of technical debt. It also talks about the "science of 10x engineers" being shoddy, and tends to regress to the mean under "controlled environments".

This entire discussion is deep in pointy-haired boss territory. First of all, creation and derivation of value from software is not "a controlled environment". Attempting to define things such that you can measure them means that whatever individual strengths and abilities people have will be washed out along with whatever advantages they could confer to the organization. As much as management wants to commodify programmers and treat it as an assembly line, programming remains a craft. It's not construction to a blueprint, but rather architect, engineer and builder all rolled into one—and the output is data and UI interactions with abstract purposes and mental models, not physical buildings with very straightforward goals and constraints.

The truth of the 10x engineer (or 100x or 1000x) is not that they code the same thing faster, it's that they find a better path. There are many different archetypes of this, you can't measure it, and you certainly can't hire for it, but with experience you can definitely see the impact of the smarter abstraction, the better anticipation of future requirements, the judicious application of YAGNI.

As an engineering manager the size of what you can accomplish is limited primarily by how you structure the team and give everyone the opportunity to play to their strengths. It's not about adding process and bureaucracy to ensure everyone feels equal, it's about setting up shared goals and fostering a sense of camaradarie so that natural leadership can emerge and everyone can do their best work.

I can't speak to all markets, but in my experience in a HCOL city in the U.S., this is not true, at least anymore. Buying a place never broke even with renting an equivalently sized one, even in the long run. Yes, there are lifestyle advantages to homeownership, but at my current place and time, not financial advantages.

he said mostly renting but then say 25% go to your principal. So it’s as if it’s 25% cheaper assuming you pay same monthly amount.

But I agree If you have HOA burning your money overpaying on useless stuff renting could actually be cheaper.
Author of MultiMC says any “unofficial” build is trademark infringement
One of the hard lessons I've learned in software is that force of will can make any development or management process work for a little over 12 months before the cracks really start to show. By then people (and by people I mean folks who don't think the way I do) have cemented that process in their heads as working and they want to ignore the data that says it doesn't.

If you are up or out as a manager, then any changes you didn't make right at the beginning of your tenure are going to unravel under the watch of your replacement. You not only don't have to reflect on them, but lots of people nominate someone else as the person who needs to fix it/take the blame. If there's a better recipe for willful ignorance, I don't know what it is, and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to.

No, quite the opposite actually. Just that it doesn't mean anything if a random Xiaomi user in Europe can type words Xiaomi is monitoring. Since that user most likely isn't the reason why Xiaomi is doing that kind of stuff.
