> That's why we have airbags, because no one will wear a helmet in their car.

Airbags are much superior to helmets, allowing for deceleration to occur over ~10 inches rather than over the ~2 inches provided by a helmet. That allows for a much smaller force to be applied to slowing the head. It would be a massive reduction in safety to replace airbags with helmets.

Rather, we (still) use helmets because motorcyclists can't take advantage of airbags.

> "It is just that this c19 vaccine is a bit different: did not yet stand the test of time and it is in many cases a whole new therapy (mRNA therapy's debut)."

At this point, surely the various c19 vaccines are the most highly scrutinised and widely administered vaccines developed in the past 50 years or so. More than 6 billion shots administered, and counting. How much more time do you need?
Fees weren't great, but I used one of these for cash on an international trip when I forgot my atm card.
Doesn't this exclude negative numbers?
> Who cares if they do more than 150 FPS, when humans cannot see more than 60 FPS

Things in 120 FPS feels smoother than in 60 FPS. Less than 60 compared to 30, but it's still noticable. I don't know the exact mechanism, but I suppose that's because the real world has no concept of FPS and what we see is continuous, so our eyes are used to seeing something like this.
It is hard to overstate how much influence Stripe had on the financial services online. Great job Stripe!
You are right, this was due to another statement by Trump. But Trump saying something about a vaccine had that big of an effect. As soon as Trump started talking about getting a vaccine out to the people Democrats started to think that an FDA approved vaccine would be a bad thing while Republicans started thinking it was a good thing. As you see in the graph after that statement both groups were almost equally willing to get vaccinated.

> Democrats' reduced confidence follows President Donald Trump's Labor Day announcement that a coronavirus vaccine could be ready in October, as well as subsequent news reports stating that Trump is eager to see a vaccine delivered before the election. Trump's accelerated timeline does not align with that of many government health experts, and this disagreement has raised concerns as to whether a vaccine distributed that soon would be effective and safe.

You're sketching a number of false equivalences. Left-of-center-in-the-US and Right-of-center-in-the-US each have their problems but that's bad argument for those being the same problems.

I don't think it's a conspiracy theory to say a substantial portion of anti-vaccine arguments have come from profit-driven fraud. That's pretty well document. That was the point of origin of the original study and various fraudsters have ridden that 'till today. Of course, there are those with nuance positions on the vaccines this will hurt them and hurt informed. Oppositely, the liars have effectively killed many people at this point.

There are a few actual fraudsters on the left but most active health-craze fraud is concentrated on the right in New Age circles (which can generally no longer be considered left).

Which is to say, the left-of-center has a number of problem (absurdist moralistic posturing, say) but straight-up-lying isn't equally divided here, among the politically respectable, it's concentrated on the right.
Hope that works :) I have this set up to an AT&T fiber gateway trashcan in pass-thru mode, so technically the RPI's vlan port has a public IP address. Otherwise I couldn't get upnp/etc to work when I wanted to.

I also want to be able to set up a DMZ'ed VLAN to hook up an old NUC to host something like a valheim/minecraft/whatever server if I wanted. So having the VLAN be safe was a goal for me.
I told my Doctor that I was using over the counter CBD ointment. He told me that prescription CBD + THC ointment would be more effective, and he was correct!

This is a great way to capture my view on the topic. How do we draw the line between hate speech that should be controlled, vs somebody's personal problem? If we call a rich white guy a cracker and he has a breakdown, I don't expect many anti-hate-speech people would mobilize a twitter army to defend him. That to me looks like an issue with "speech I hate" vs "hate speech", as you said.
I did this as well on a small laptop. I had trouble reaching gigE speeds (with cake qos). Took a bit of learning and careful configuration of the managed switch beforehand, otherwise it worked fine.
> Someone want to throw out there a better way to combat disinformation than just armchair criticizing their decision? I almost feel like people are siding with the anti-vaxxers out of "principle".

Social networks seem to be unable to optimize for anything other than "engagement," which inevitably leads to amplifying compelling but technically incorrect and outright dangerous content.

The thing to remember is that YouTube is essentially designed to boost disinformation. As implemented they have no effective counterbalance to this.

Is it also "censorship" when the YT recommendation system effectively buries factual and useful information for some people just because it's less engaging than the misinformation they currently consume? Maybe so?

The solution seems pretty obvious to me. There's a middle ground between banning and allowing to run rampant - and that's to add human reviewers to counterbalance the terrible job currently being done by their automatic recommendation system, and manually down-rank disinformation so it is less likely to be surfaced automatically in peoples' playlists.

Google will never do it, because it would 1) require paying humans to do work, which is expensive, and 2) it wouldn't drive engagement and generate clicks.

So they just take the easy way out, so they can keep on doing what they do.

You might make that argument for vacines that prevent you from passing the disease on.

That is not the case for covid.
After reading about this, I’m convinced that it’s mostly marketing.

He’s supposed to return the money in 2022. If he doesn’t, I’ll be convinced that this wasn’t just a marketing stunt after he thought up an alternative.

He thought up a fun way to play with this concept of being handed so much in cash… the museum then went along with this idea.

The resulting publicity, and that fact that the money is supposed to be returned… really seems like brilliant marketing.
I didn't cheer. I don't cheer unless the videos are snuff (a beheading) or pornographic (not in ISIS' case).

For the later I wouldn't even erase such content from the internet. All I demand is a proper age verification system for viewers and the actors. More guarantees that the actresses aren't, in fact, being abused by their situation would be nice - what can I say, I dare to dream.
If you have a GPU and use a GPU-rendered terminal, then I'd beg to differ. Kitty is much faster than st especially when I'm tailing fast-moving files. suckless tools are certainly simple, but simple is not always fast. They _can_ be fast due to dispensing with aspects of complexity, but when compared to software that is designed to be fast, they're not as fast. One could argue that suckless tools form a good balance of simplicity, ease of interoperability, and speed that come from their ruthlessly simple perspective, but to say it's globally faster or more feature-rich is heavily overstating the truth.
This is a very strange approach to discourse. What action do you think was taken and where's the documentation?

The administration was openly showing support for the Arab Spring mobs and even built up a military coalition in its support. Lack of knowledge on current events isn't the same as taking a skeptical stance.
I think price is part of the calculation of "best" and this vehicle is about 10x more valuable than the rusted old trucks with plow attachments I see around here.
I have a strong memory of using an IDE that behaved like this - using size and font to communicate structure - at a job around 2005. I can't currently remember the name but think it it started with 'source'?

If someone else remembers this and the name I'd appreciate it. I could be remembering wrong too about how far it went with such decoration.

It seems like your Ivermectin study is the type of information Youtube would be banning. It showed statistically significant improvements in symptoms and viral loads, which is the kind of information that walks a fine line between getting banned instead of just mocked.
North American tribes kept the forests burned off to provide forage for game animals, particularly the bison, which ranged all the way to Louisiana. When Hernan de Soto released pigs during his exploration, initiating a continent-wide smallpox epidemic, the practice was perforce abandoned, triggering a little ice age as the new forests absorbed a huge slug of CO2. A century later, forest stretched from the Mississippi River all the way to the east coast.

This is not to assert that they lived out of harmony with nature, whatever that might mean, but it does mean they had a different relationship with it than is commonly assumed.
Yeh. It would be more accurate to say something like this:

A retail trader will usually be trading with some sort of market maker. That market maker will also trade with informed traders, and sets their bid-offer spread accordingly to offset this adverse selection. So the retail trader is paying a bid-offer spread that is the result of other informed traders in the market.

Of course, as a retail investor you may have access to a broker (e.g. Robinhood) that tries to exclude informed traders so it can set a lower spread.

How about "The safety of Covid-19 mRNA vaccines: a review" (https://pssjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13037...)

Which has the amusing paragraph:

"Notably, a recent survey conducted by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that 29 % of healthcare providers themselves expressed hesitancy about receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. The same survey found that among the general public, the group that reported that they “definitely will not get vaccinated” may be the hardest to reach via most traditional public health means. Only two emissaries were reported as trustworthy sources by at least half the people in this group: their personal health care provider (59 %) and former President Trump (56 %). These findings suggest that individual health care provider endorsement and support may be one of the sole avenues for reaching this group with reliable and timely vaccine information [60]."
I don’t think that’s quite right. Otherwise, you could just follow the opposite of your unprofessional trade strategy as a cheap proxy for a professional trading strategy.

I think the market is dominated by front-running trades and randomness.
You can be either pro-nuclear, pro-fossil or pro-magic.
Still, I could not have painted like Monet or Sisley. I can, however, pick a marker and a canvas and write "I just did that" to reply to the "I could have done that" asshole. Then I'm sure someone will come up and retroactively insert some meaning into that piece of shit "Ah, yes... That is the purpose of that piece. It is to be discussed in a world where meaning itself is to be discussed. You understood it perfectly".

How about someone take a massive literal dump just under that metaphorical crap that says "I could have done that". Technically, someone looking at the two together could say the same thing about both, or mistake the piece of canvas as a label for that actual steaming piece of art.

> The actual key difference is the person, then, right?

And perhaps, for this reason, drugs shouldn't be a part of the workplace at all. Go visit Japan if you want to see what social pressure to drink after work does to a person's health.

I don't even want to consider what marijuana would do to an intelligent person's focus and clarity of thought, if subjected to social pressure to smoke after work.
The 24-pin ones used to advertise themselves as being almost indistinguishable from a typewriter. If you didn't look too closely, they actually were.

Thanks for pointing that out. I’ll have to try again. Maybe ipv4 got disabled in the configuration somehow by accident.
It isn't too early to /think/ they are safe (a subjective judgement since they do harm a small percentage of people, just like the debate whether the virus is 'bad' or not). It is impossible to know with certainty if there are long-term effects, and predictions made from past events are obviously uncertain.
He lied about the required levels to reach herd immunity too. Ends justify the means I guess? But it’s hard to take him at face value about anything anymore.

“In the pandemic’s early days, Dr. Fauci tended to cite the same 60 to 70 percent estimate that most experts did. About a month ago, he began saying “70, 75 percent” in television interviews. And last week, in an interview with CNBC News, he said “75, 80, 85 percent” and “75 to 80-plus percent.”

In a telephone interview the next day, Dr. Fauci acknowledged that he had slowly but deliberately been moving the goal posts. He is doing so, he said, partly based on new science, and partly on his gut feeling that the country is finally ready to hear what he really thinks.

Hard as it may be to hear, he said, he believes that it may take close to 90 percent immunity to bring the virus to a halt — almost as much as is needed to stop a measles outbreak.”

I don’t know if that’s a technical accounting term but “integral” is the key word there. Massive expansion is not integral to the normal operations of a business. R&D and literal billion dollar ad campaigns are tools to expand and grow into whatever space is open from lack of competition. Amazon filled their space, Tesla theirs and one of the computerized taxi companies will fill that space. Until they do, they will spend money on expansion. So that’s the key. It’s a temporary state. “Integral” is a completely incorrect term for the cost of that growth. The viability of a business is based on how much it costs them to actually carry out their core business.

And maybe Uber has already gotten as big as they will get. It doesn’t change the fact that they don’t need one billion dollars in advertising. And also, what you are asserting is that it’s impossible for a computerized taxi company to exist. So do you think it would be cheaper to have a human dispatcher? Obviously you can run a profitable taxi company. It’s been a thing for a long time and the computers aren’t making it any worse or more expensive I can assure you.
romwell, I'd just like to say your comments here on this topic are stellar, relatable, and 100% true for me.

>* Paradoxical reaction to stimulants (in particular, amphetamines, anesthesia, caffeine). In practical terms: coffee can make me sleepy if it's very strong, so does Adderall.

:nods: My psychiatrist was waffling between cPTSD and ADHD as a cause of my concentration issues until I told her that one time I tried cocaine and promptly took a nap.

>* Feeling calm in emergencies: that's the situations where ADHD people thrive in. Particularly, jobs like EMT seem to be a great fit.

Oh hey, I've worked in tech support for the past 20 years where high profile clients are freaking out when their servers go down, everything is an emergency, and every day is different. :)

There's one thing that's been left out of this discussion thus far, relating to this comment:

>> I can roll down the entire list you posted and pick out one thing after another that might be related to CPTSD ... it can get really hard to differentiate, even with experienced professionals diagnosing people.

ADHD is caused by a dysfunctioning pre-frontal cortex. [1] cPTSD is caused by ongoing chronic trauma.
I had a QEEG done and it was clearly apparent my pre-frontal cortex was low-activity.

I also agree with the theory that cPTSD and ADHD/ASD can go hand in hand, because the ADHD or ASD can cause mal-treatment. I was severely abused as a child precisely because of my (un-diagnosed at the time, because girl) ASD and ADHD.

Ah, fair. I stated an opinion as a matter of fact. My perspective came from the concept of a sugar crash. Which, to be fair, similar effects can happen when you eat too many simple sugars.

Your response made me wonder if sugar is considered a "legal drug" anywhere in the world. A Google search came back as negative or at least inconclusive.

The topic is the subject of scientific study [1] - "intermittent access to sugar can lead to behavior and neurochemical changes that resemble the effects of a substance of abuse".

> The devaluation of aesthetics in favor of meaning make it unapproachable to those with no context on the subject, and unappealing to even those with context.

Your description of this phenomenon is perfect to me. I find it interesting that nearly the opposite has happened in some areas of music, but you still hear that the lack of “meaning” is what makes modern music terrible.
occasionally I like to view the internet through a translating service. It's fascinating how different the world becomes outside Western European languages.

Try it.
What a ridiculously formulated sentence.
You could use the same reasoning like

> Making bad things illegal seems like a decent idea until they make something you like doing illegal

Therefore just have no laws, I guess?

Sometimes an imperfect, abusable system is better than no system. In fact, I'd wager that's usually the case.

Either you don't care if I get it, or they're ineffective.
VLANs absolutely can be considered security boundary. Sure, you can misconfigure switch and expose something unintentionally. But as a technology VLANs are pretty battle-hardened. Random reddit discussion on the topic https://www.reddit.com/r/networking/comments/opmjol/vlan_seg...

That BH presentation is 20 years old now, and almost completely Cisco specific. I would not make security decisions on such data alone.
What do you expect to happen? You ultimately have to store the state somewhere. Either it lives in the component, or outside of it, or you figure out some strategy to combine the two.
Apart from the special interest for TikTok, the article has very carefully misleading wording: there is no actual evidence of military projects, military facilities, military personnel, secrets, and violation of secrets. It is only suggested.

The marked "video viewpoint" looks like a generic parking lot/courtyard, accessible to any visitor; the object could be a radar-only Lockheed experiment, not a next-generation USAF project; the "OPSEC violation" is probably placing guards close to interesting things in the buildings instead of severely bothering visitors at the entrance to keep cameras out.
The tradeoff is always the benefit of getting vaccinated weighed against the potential harm of side-effects. The only strong claim made on behalf of the efficacy of the vaccines is that they will greatly reduce the vaccinated individual's chance of hospitalization and death. Those chances vary due to a number of factors, age and obesity being just two of the most important. An otherwise fit and healthy individual in his or her twenties or thirties already has a low chance of being hospitalized or dying. But, for the sake of argument, let's agree that the benefit outweighs the risk.

That benefit to risk ratio changes if that same young, fit, and healthy individual has already been infected with COVID-19. So, now what's the tradeoff? My original point is that in the current environment, there are some people who would rather not only that this not be discussed; some would rather that discussion—and perhaps even research into the question—be shut down.

Let's not pretend we're being governed by scientists. We're being governed by bureaucrats. No matter their credentials, the function of a bureaucrat is gaining compliance and expanding his or her department. That's what's behind calls for censorship.

Recently I spoke with two senior scientists with decades of experience who specialise in pharmacology, biology, and vaccines, who both work at high-level labs that inspect all types of drugs.

They both were extremely sceptical of the vaccine, with one being openly antagonistic towards it.

YouTube's new rules allow them to post content, but they both say they've been warned by their jobs about speaking out - that they will lose their careers if they say anything against the vaccines.

Where is the room for their opinion? Because they are the top of the tree scientifically. What the hell is going on when we are silencing senior scientists who are extremely worried about an experimental drug that we're giving to the entire world??!

To clarify - the first scientist told me that her lab is not allowed to look at or test the vaccine, even though they test every other drug that comes into the country. She has only found a report from one other non-Pfizer lab that has looked at it under a microscope. To me, that is really scary.

I dont understand why everyone thinks they are fascists.
At least one of the points in this article isn't true. The article states "RISC-V is not affected by the Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities... [because it does] not perform any speculative memory accesses" -- but that's only true for some designs, not anything done by the ISA.

Many of the higher performance RISC-V designs do, in fact, do speculation. RISC-V BOOM[0], by Berkeley, is vulnerable to Spectre[1][2]. One of the attempts to create an extension to the RISC-V ISA that has integrated security features (CHERI, [3]) itself was shown to be vulnerable to Spectre-like attacks[4].

The fact that most RISC-V chips were not vulnerable to Spectre is simply because they hadn't implemented a particular kind of performance optimization, not because there was anything intrinsic to the ISA that prevented them from being so.
