Upon some reflection, I have decided that this is indeed art. It's clearly in the succession of Dadaism; a critique of art critique. It opens up for a very peculiar legal challenge. Every blank canvas sold after today can be seen as a derivative or blatant copy of this work. I'd love to see this artist sue a producer of blank canvases for royalties. Alternatively, if he didn't make the frame and stretch the canvas himself, the manufacturer can likewise sue the artist. Please let this make it as far as the courts. I'll make popcorn.
Got bit by a dog in Bali while on vacation there in 2013. I got a series of five or six vaccine shots in Indonesia and Thailand. It cost around $10/shot. I remember doing some research and I think it's fabricated differently than here in the USA. There was no difference in efficacy rates between the two types (basically 100% survival).
Well, I had been a moderate stoner for a few years, and I had no concern about the law. Then, I went through a phase where I had horrible panic attacks every single time I smoked. It seemed purely a chemical thing to me. Now, in middle age, I only ever feel mildly stoned and body high, no matter how much I smoke or what strain.
Thanks! I can definitely see the merit of the cartel argument. Also good point about putting down injured animals.

(I still think gun regulation is a good thing, with some background checks to reduce the chances of people with e.g. psychosis getting their hands on assault rifles.)
Have you watched Tucker Carlson? I would be pleased if they charged the man with murder after this is all over. Do you think it's odd he won't answer questions about his own vaccination status?

> Rabies virus is one of the deadliest viruses

Rabies is probably the only virus where a vaccine is given after you get exposed (technically not infected yet, because you need to get it quickly enough).

I was taken in for a post-exposure vaccination as a child, though they didn't give me one after figuring out I wasn't bitten really (I still am very unclear about what happened) and just had thorns all over my legs from jump into some bushes away from the stray dog.

Would've been a painful set of shots in the belly, which some other kids got.

And the dog was left in chains with a giant bowl of water to see if it drank any over the next week.

Rabies and Tetanus seemed to be the "vaccine magic" diseases of my childhood, with very different outcomes with vaccinations after exposure.
Glad to see you're still around!
Normally I would agree, but right now if I get in a serious car accident there is a decent chance there won't be an ICU available at my nearest hospital because they're all full of COVID patients.

How to gain conviction to work on a startup idea for 10 years
That creates a perverse incentive where you want your open source stuff to be hard to use so people have to pay you.

Plus there's no guarantee that the developers will be the ones making money. There's a lot of ire at Amazon because of that.
Most if not all of them. Especially during a downturn, all assets of all classes tend to correlate and produce negative returns. During big crises, stocks that before seemed uncorrelated/anti-correlated have a tendency to increase their correlation and go down together; at the extreme, even bonds cease to act as a diversifier against stocks plummeting.
That is true, but most people at home probably don't need anything like that. You are probably outside the article's 'target audience'.

> When the component needs to manage user interactions it needs state, and then if you need to update props you have to make a new instance of the component

That would suck and make React completely unusable, but it isn't true at all. Assuming that there are necessary state/prop interactions to track (sometimes the two arr largely orthogonal, so you don't need this) you might need to add additional state variables to do last value tracking for props, and then do (with useEffect hooks in a function component, for instance) state updates based on prop changes as needed, but you don't need a new instance on prop changes, generally.

Yes. There was that anecdote of someone bringing a painting and being told it was clearly a fake after examination because the real one was exposed in a museum. TL;DR: the one exposed in the museum was the fake, the real one was stolen, and that's the one the person brought.

Not that I disagree with you - but "can't yell fire in a crowded room" is slightly misconstrued. As those aren't the original words from the U.S. Supreme Court case. [0]

Additionally, the idea of 'clear and present danger' has been modified within the past 100 years since the said court case. The Supreme court since then has stated:
"The government cannot punish inflammatory speech unless that speech is 'directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action'". Said definition has changed and depends upon situations, where some action is imminent or "at some ambiguous future date".[1]

> First, how in the world did the Japanese invasion of Manchuria show that the elites weren't caught by surprise by 1929? I mean, you've listed two events, and one came after the other, but that in no way demonstrates that the elites had advance knowledge of 1929.

When a global war is planned, the money tends to flood out of speculative consumer goods because that money is needed to fund wars. Why do you think the markets collapse in 1929? Everything was running smoothly and it all crashed down just before the start of the greatest war in human history.

> Second, the amount of influence that western elites had over Japanese foreign policy in 1931 was very close to zero.

Japan has been a US "vassal" since the 1850s. We used Japan as an attack dog to protect our interests in china/east asia and of course to keep the russians at bay. If you are interested, go read about a bunch of black ships sailing into tokyo bay in the 1850s. Sure, Japan got off leash for a few years, but we corrected such "misbehavior" rather brutally. The idea that the "the west" had no influence over japan is laughable.

> I notice that you don't name any of these "elites", just "not Bernie Madoff".

I imagine the elites are people who I will never hear of. I don't know. The people who decide to sanction cuba, venezuela, etc. The people who decided to open trade relations with china in the 1970s. The people who decided to invade iraq. Certainly the people didn't decide any of it. Certainly madoff didn't either, but that's my assumption.

> You're sounding more and more like a conspiracy-theory nut case. If you've got an actual case, you need to do a better job presenting it.

What is "conspiratorial" about saying the elites set up any system - national or international. Who do you think set up the global order? Aliens? The people? Who do you think sets up governments? Who do you think starts wars. Who do you think artificial man-made systems are created and broken down.

Resorting to silly ad hominems doesn't make you look great. I'm not saying there is some crazy "conspiracy" for the elites to collapse the system to turn humans into batteries. I'm saying that artifical human systems are created by elites and usually broken down by elites. The exceptions being natural causes.
I suppose you could try to get “professionally immunized” each year and get paid for your antibodies and be protected from rabies.
I live in Poland. I just checked the vaccine prices in one of my town's private clinics. It's $57 (Verorab vaccine) or $73 (Rabipur) per shot. So next time when you're bitten by a bat in US, just jump into a plane to Poland ($800 round trip) and stay here for 2 weeks to get all the shots. The entire trip would cost you less than $3000. Still a lot but order of magnitude cheaper than vaccine in US.

This reminds me of the "worst way to ask a user for a telephone number" UI, after one UI forced the user to select each digit in a 0-9 dropdown.

The specific one I'm thinking of is just spit out a scrollable numeric string of Pi, and make the user scroll until their phone number was the digits of Pi that matched it.

My (7 digit) phone number occurs after digit position 9_000_000, and occurs 21 times in the first 200_000_000 digits.

Do you have any evidence that this was the reason for the claims?

> How about the initial censorship of the outbreak on social media and news media, on the grounds that the "fear-mongering" about an outbreak in China was racist?

What censorship? I heard about it quite early.

> How about the labelling by the news media of the initial travel bans as racist?

Did the news media label it, or were they reporting on people who were labeling it?

> How about health officials refusing to test anyone who hadn't personally travelled to China for months after the virus had been observed in the US.

AFAIK, there were lack of resources to test. Once the resources became available, testing was widespread.

“… it was exported from white supremacist America to Germany.”

Stumbling upon that particular panel in the permanent exhibit at the Dokumentationszentrum at the former Reichsparteitagsgelände (“Nazi Rally Grounds”) in Nuremberg was an eye-opener - I have a sharp memory of seeing it the first time. The Nazis borrowed heavily from the Jim Crow laws that were still in force in the US South.

Note: the Dokumentationszentrum is a completely different, though complementary museum to the Nürnberger Prozess Memorium (“Nuremberg Trials museum”). Though far less well-known, I think it’s the more important of the two (the other is worthwhile, don’t get me wrong!)

How does a “normal,” “cultured” Western country go from being a fragile democracy to Hell on Earth for many of its erstwhile citizens and neighbors? Relatively little space there is spent on post-1939; at that point, individual resistance was futile, and there are many other sites that cover the greater horrors of the second half of the Nazi regime, but focuses on 1931-1939, when it might have been possible to stop.

The display text is mostly in German, but the English language audio guide is good. If any of you ever visit Nuremberg, I will walk you through it.

Given the number of countries and institutions involved the scope of the conspiracy here would have to be vast. And there are plenty of powerful, vaccine-skeptical institutions (like the GOP) that would welcome this kind of data and venerate someone producing it. Indeed, some have already built media or political careers on COVID vaccine skepticism.

In addition, there's the J&J vaccine which was pulled after nasty side effects were found in a small number of patients. Where was the "they" who are supposedly creating the echo chamber in that case?
I also experience Deuteranopia. I am usually only impacted if I'm trying to read a chart which requires that I map the colors in a legend to the colors on the lines/bars. This is usually impossible for me to do if there are >2 colors.

I use IntelliJ for my IDE, which has a color blind mode plugin. Before I discovered this, there were shades of orange and red that made some of the syntax highlighting useless.

My company uses Bitbucket, and the red/green colors they use for "lines added" and "lines removed" in code reviews are really hard to see. I usually have to use the side-by-side diff instead of the unified diff. Example here [1].

Otherwise, there's no real impact IMO. If I'm working on front-end stuff, I just use the hex codes that the designers tell me to use. If I'm working with a designer that is particularly interested in accessibility, they'll often ask me "hey can you see the colors on this layout?".

Interesting tool. This looks like the Java equivalent of Facebook's Python taint analysis tool Pysa: https://pyre-check.org/docs/pysa-basics/.

From what I can tell by the documentation, it looks like Mariana's requires you to bring your own sources/sinks/sanitizers, so expect a lot of up front cost to integrate this into your toolchain. This as opposed to including commonly used rules or heuristics. Not a huge deal since users can write and share there own rules, but this looks like a framework for sophisticated static analysis and not a batteries included solution.

I appreciate your honesty in believing the public square is a center of inspiration for mass shootings.

I believe quite the opposite. It has been a place for the public to plan self defense, both to organize themselves in defense from natural disaster, hostile forces, wildfires, and anyone who seeks to do them harm. It is a place for the public to engage in the marketplace of ideas and inspirations, which ultimately leads to the saving of lives, prosperity, security, and bonding of the populace. Harmful ideas can be shamed and those espousing bad ideas have a chance of learning the holes in their ideas. The mass shooter espousing violent ideas in the public square is as likely to have alerted his neighbor to be alert for any evidence of crime, as he is to convince the general populace of his nutjob ideas.

I don't buy your hypothesis that Hitler came to power because of free speech, and quite frankly it is laughable to think banning Hitler from Reddit (were it to exist in his day) would have any effect whatsoever. You seem quite ignorant of the factors precipitating Naziism, including the economic situation of Germany at that time. It's also worth noting that Hitler was quick to stifle certain speech that went against his ideas, meaning he found free speech at odds or even dangerous to Naziism.

>How did Osama Bin Laden recruit extremists who were willing to put a bomb into the WTC basement? Propaganda, speech.

Bin Laden attempted to blow up the WTC basement with bombs, not free speech. Bin Laden lived in Muslim nations with more limited speech regulations than Reddit.

>Moreover you have to recognize that these isolated echo chambers would naturally self-segregate on Reddit if given free reign, and so in practice you haven't changed anything aside from giving these ideas more distribution. It's not like /r/88 or whatever would be interacting with the rest of Reddit thus helping their members deradicalize.

Some may, some may not. I've stopped using reddit because I was banned because I simply said things like I didn't believe forcefully shutting down a restaurant is an appropriate way to deal with coronavirus. Now maybe that is a very wrong and bad idea, but I'm willing to debate with others on it and learn their perspectives. Instead these communities said fuck you, you're banned, and now you have to go to some echo-chamber where everyone agrees with it. I'm not interested in an echo chamber, I'm interested in engaging with others so my bad ideas can be brought to light and shown to be bad, or my good ideas can be integrated. Your argument sounds more like one against having subreddits.
Microsoft also pays salary for several people who are core Python contributors, and sponsor PSF and PyCon.

(I'm sure there are similar arrangements for other projects - that's just the stuff I'm familiar with.)

However, Python is an example of a large and prominent OSS product. Generally speaking, stuff like that doesn't struggle to find sponsors. But there are all those countless small OSS projects that get used by for-profit companies without any financial support for their maintenance. There needs to be some arrangement to accommodate those, as well.
The R0 changed: initial WHO estimates were (1.4, 2.4); now multiple studies have a mean of 5.08 [1]. Thus the simple math changed. 60% likely does grant herd immunity at an R0 of 2.5; it does not for delta.

* The proprietary management interface listens to all VLANs no matter what.

* The VLAN separation is fake, multicast leaks freely across segments.

* The proprietary management protocol is obfuscated by a hard coded XOR string.

* Administrating the switch sends the admin password, "encrypted" only by the very same obfuscation.

* This most bizarre proprietary management protocol uses only broadcast for all communications, even though the switch has an IP assigned.

You do the math putting the above together... it's a mess bordering on genius, but there's more.

The switch will spew out various arcane, undocumented, probably providing more backdoors, not even IP protocols, including some Realtek proprietary protocol (0x8899), something used for HomePlug (0x893a) and TIPC (0x88ca), which sounds like the last thing you'd want a device of this caliber to use searching for more friends to talk to.

God knows what this monstrosity of a firmware hides and its reasons. It's just what I remember by heart, I have not had it powered up for some time.

I actually tried KDE Plasma on 20.04 LTS just a few days ago, and it has HiDPI bugs. When moving the mouse pointer over the desktop the pointer is drawn too small rather than 200% scale. I actually like the KDE taskbar better than Gnome's default. (I ended up installing the Gnome dash-to-dock extension to get a KDE-like taskbar.) I've tried Gnome, KDE, Xfce, and old-school window managers (mostly FVWM2) and Gnome has the fewest overall issues (particularly for HiDPI) but it still has a large number of bugs, especially when installing user themes, which I learned to just avoid for the sake of my sanity. (I actually tried KDE because I wanted to avoid installing dash-to-dock on Gnome, because of how often I've seen extension bugs on Gnome.)

Wayland still isn't 100% there for nVidia yet. "Well don't use nVidia then!" Well, for many machine learning workflows and other use cases non-nVidia isn't 100% there yet. But yeah, Linux users should avoid nVidia to the maximum extent possible.
