I don't think that is quite right, actually. There are facilities in emacs to do async things. Such that you can make a similar latency trade-off.

I agree the difference is emacs is done such that it is all exposed to all developers. There are no special parts, as it were. Such that a hello world looks like (defun my-ext () (message "hello, world")). If binding this to a key, you simply need to add (interactive) after the argument list.

Obviously, things ramp up quickly, but the point is it isn't some special framework to make extensions. It is just a function.

Apple’s supply chains and how they can apply pressure is massively underrated.

People still have this idea that “so and so actually invented it”. Or “Apple just combined X and Y”.

But they fail to see how truck loads of money and a customer willing to pay for something and making large pre-payments can change the trajectory of a company. Or even has impact on other players.

>>The so called “long COVID” really needs to be part of the vaccine calculus because the health consequences are very much worse than the purported side effects from the vaccine.

Here is a typical study purportedly showing evidence for long COVID:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/sep/28/covid-37-of-pe...

Anxiety is the most common symptom of long COVID.. All of the symptoms listed could be psychosomatic, due to fear around COVID.

Not to mention the prescribed two week isolation that is part of the standard of care for even an asymptomatic COVID infecion, which could have a profound negative impact on physical and mental health, given what is known about the health risks of isolation.

Not enough attention is paid to the dangers of over-reacting to COVID:

>>Great clip of Bill Maher citing a survey in which 41% of Democrats said that if you catch COVID, the chances of going to the hospital are >50%... (the correct answer is between 1% - 5%)
Maher says the "liberal media needs to take responsibility for scaring the sh*t out of people"

With regard to vaccines, my personal opinion is that they will prove to pose an extroardinarily low risk of producing a severe adverse effect, orders of magnitude lower than that posed by COVID.

People worry about vaccines not being tested for long term effects but covid is also not tested for long term effects. We can use common sense to deduce long term effects.

What we do know already is that COVID is not a retrovirus, so it doesn't have a genetic impact on cells that outlives the infection. We also know that the infection lasts a few weeks, then is cleared from the body.

Similarly, none of the vaccines change cell DNA, so will not have a genetic impact that outlives the vaccination's immediate post administration effects.

Therefore we can deduce that the only long-term impact of the COVID vaccines, and COVID, is from the damage done during the few days of immune response to the vaccine antigens, and few weeks when the COVID infection is active, respectively, and thus that the severity of the immediate-vaccine-response/infection can be expected to be proportional to the risk of long-term complications (i.e. long-term effects of vaccines, or long-COVID). So any vaccine that poses an extremely low risk of producing a severe immediate adverse effect, or any demographic which faces an extremely low risk of facing serious symptoms and death from COVID, should also face an accordingly low risk of long-term complications.

With vaccines, there is also the risk of 'antibody-dependent enhancement of virus infection', but so far, that hasn't manifested in any of the COVID vaccines.
Maybe you should go back and read what I quoted. In both cases, the people said that they did eventually find what they needed, and decided to do the vaccination.

These two people were complaining not that they couldn't find anti-vax information. They were complaining that they couldn't find anybody directly refuting anti-vax claims, because those anti-vax claims had (assumedly) been censored.

But let's assume that you're correct. Wouldn't it be better to let the skeptic find some posting from a person who wrongly believed that, say, the vaccine causes sterility; and when they go read that (maybe just to bolster their own beliefs) they also see the reply from someone who addresses the skeptic's incorrect beliefs? If we prevent our hypothetical skeptic from finding that page that made him feel safe, he wouldn't have gotten to the counter-argument at all.

It regularly happens in reality. I know people who have walked out of one job, crossed a street, and walked in to another less than a half hour later. With construction, bartenders, kitchen and waitstaff, bussers, and security it is ridiculously common.

It becomes more common the lower skill the job becomes, as the fungibility of the worker increases.
I'm not sure what you mean by not caring about underlying arch. With docker you use an arch-specific image. The author may transparently provide multiple arch versions of the image, but I wouldn't call it abstracting. (not in the sense fat-binaries do for example) Specifically, if you then make your own app image on top of the base one, it will again need to be built for each architecture separately.

Carriers are not vulnerable to a meter drop, but it's objectively true that ships are not built to the same standards nowadays as they used to be.

In WW2 ships were built to remain operational after multiple direct strikes. Nowadays ships are built to not sink after a single direct strike at the most like carriers, or only mildly though against such a hit because actually dealing with it would make them orders of magnitude more expensive and so heavy they'd be useless.

While a WW2 battleship could survive multiple direct hits and still fulfill its mission, a modern carrier would be lucky not to sink, and definitely won't be launching and recovering aircraft.

If a carrier in a war against a major power can't launch any aircraft anymore it's as good as dead, once it's off the AA ships will be targeted and sunk as they won't have AWACS and fighters to defend them and the carrier itself will be destroyed by enemy air power.

But the commenter is absolutely correct, ships are not expected to remain operable after a direct strike anymore. Weapons have gotten so good that defending credibly against them is not practical, so it's not really worth it to protect them nearly as much as it used to be.
It's less complaining about the existence of the text, and moreso there's a lack of a way to remind you about reading this later.
This isn't about who has moral high ground. This is about convincing people to take the damned vaccine. I'd think it's more important to find ways to reach such people, than it is to feel morally righteous about the skeptic being a parasitic moron who isn't researching hard enough.
I think it really depends on why you're leaving. If it really is simply a physical presence thing, then I do agree, one should be open about that. So consider this a partial retraction. Assuming you're sure of course.
I feel there are enough debates with flat-earthers, climate change deniers, covid-deniers, anti-vaxers etc. and it leads to nowhere. (at least in .cz) The same applies to other topics, for example some time ago there was Internet censorship in .cz widely discussed (a topic where I can be, given my education and job, absolutely sure what things are nonsense from the technical point of view), and I think the problem is arguments from the "objectively correct" side are indistinguishable to a layperson from the "crafted nonsense". For a layperson to make sense of such arguments, at least a several hours long lecture explaining the concepts would be needed (in case of vaccines: DNA replication, proteosynthesis, folding, antigens and immune reactions…; in the case of internet censorship: routing, DNS, HTTPS, SNI…), which is impossible to do in a "debate", we have "lectures" for this. Otherwise, they simply cannot get the arguments and why the other side is wrong, by other means than faith.

And yes, of course there are many websites, free online textbooks and recorded lectures explaining such concepts available to anyone willing to spend some time on it. Even in Czech, so no language barrier.

There is no clear sense of what you're saying because you refuse to answer any clarifying questions. If you want to participate in a discussion rather than just lecturing us about how we're being "reprehensible," tell us what you mean when you say untested. Because the clear meaning of that word is untrue on its face and you have so far refused to offer any explanation for what you meant. "Trials that take time" is likewise utterly lacking in clarity, because there were trials, and they took time.

I am honestly trying to understand your point of view. I really do want to know what specific difference between EUA and approval you're referring to. Not as a gotcha, not as some kind of rhetorical trick--I am taking you seriously. But you seem to be deliberately refusing to return the favor.

The complaint is that Merriam-Webster is not reflecting typical usage by "the people" here, but rather spin from a concentrated press campaign. John Q.

Hatches are essentially a downsized SUV. They are very different from sedan's when it comes to storage of goods. The positive is they generally can hold more stuff. The downside is that it is easier to access that stuff by unknown 3rd parties (break and enter).
To be fair, he (and many other people) consider significant quality and design improvements as “revolutionary”. I tend to agree especially when the entire industry makes garbage. For example the touchpad. It’s still one of the top reasons not to switch to anything else for me. Nothing else comes close to being as accurate and natural.
This is missing the last step of calculations as any degree of lower r0 doesn’t necessarily prevent endemic disease. My understanding is that at this point, vaccines are about keeping symptoms mild and ICUs at low capacity through reduced spread and more effective immune responses. This seems compatible with the view that we will have to live with this disease for a long time.

Some combination of death, natural immunity, vaccination, distancing, mask use, etc. What other forces are you suggesting?

Note that the more populous counties probably increased vaccination at a greater rate, like Miami-Dade went from 56% to 72% over the same time range.
Could it be that NYC is simply garbage to begin with?

Norway (lets ignore because oil, but really it's not oil), Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Iceland - also better? Longer vacations, better transit, definitely less hobos from what I remember, and no pervasive urine odour.

And bigger median annual incomes.

The weather is brutal in some parts of Nordics, I'll give you that. Not sure if I'd trade cold weather for urine vapours though. Very very difficult question, so I guess NYC isn't entirely hopeless just yet.

> because morale is low because of people leaving.

A broader point, here: Maybe in specific instances people are leaving for legitimate or systemic reasons, but it's still sad that humans still operate on the flawed basis of social proof in 2021.

One would have hoped we'd have advanced past primitive signaling, but I guess not.

Social proof is the perennial mind-killer of humans, everywhere.

I don't know what pro-vax people are saying "get vaccinated and your old life comes back", that seems a mischaracterization to me. The reason to get vaccinated is to protect yourself and others from the disease.

> The concept of pure functions is at the core of FP.

Only in the subset that you consider canon, not generically for all FP. Wikipedia is quite authoritative, FWIW.

I agree that the React team has made some flat out wrong claims (e.g. incorrectly calling hooks pure at one point), but you're engaging in exactly the same sort of "marketing" you dislike, by biasedly claiming your specific flavor of FP is the "real deal", when in reality there are many different cohorts within the larger FP community that prioritize different things.

If I had to criticize your purity-centric flavor, I'd say it's very reminiscent of the height of the OOP craze, with algebraic terminology elitism being similar to the one surrounding GoF pattern terminology. Also similar are the grandiose theories of maintainability, and the dichotomy between what loudmouths preach and what code in the wild looks like.

People log things from .map callbacks. They don't grok monads. It seems entirely arbitrary to me to deny the functionalness of some code based on some technicality (case in point, do you avoid promises and do you Object.freeze(Object.create(o)) all your objects?)

IMHO, there's no point defending some notion of an FP brand. Looking around this thread, you can see that people already view React's hot take on FP as problematic. Same goes for general perception of the more elitist corners of the FP community.

Sonarqube has, among other things, code duplication detection, where it detects very similar, but slightly different blocks of code.

It's possible to wire things up so that it runs when you open a merge request and notifies you via email the results.

It also has a linter plugin for vscode (and possibly other editors) that DID NOT work well, atleast the last time I checked which was before February this year. Just thought you should know, incase you decided to just use the linter.

The default expectation is: people are not going to stay long in your company. It's a given. What you can do to improve things it a bit:

1) pay a bit over market rate (5-10% is ok)

2) create a culture where approachability, kindness and responsibility are more important than anything else

3) offer (but don't enforce) specific workplace settings

4) offer (but don't enforce) work-from-home/work-from-office balance

5) periodically encourage people - feedback is very important
The reason that risk is important to quantify is because leverage could be used (in theory), to achieve risk parity between different strategies. So ideally you would pick the one that has the best risk adjusted returns (with enough diversification) and then leverage it to the amount of risk you would be comfortable with.

As a highly simplified, unrealistic example - let's say strategy A has an average return of 5%/year with max drawdown of 20%, and strategy B has an average return of 10%/year with a max drawdown of 50% (here max drawdown being a highly simplified proxy for risk). Theoretically, you could use leverage to go 2.5X long strategy A to achieve a return of 12.5%/year with a max drawdown of 50% (minus cost of the leverage - depending on how you do this, cost could be fairly small). This might do better, risk-adjusted, than just doing strategy B by itself.

> If we’re going to disingenuously compare smallpox and measles vaccines, perhaps we could start with their efficacy. Are there any claims from even the mfgs that Covid shots are in the same range?

Ain't nothing disingenuous from me. The COVID vaccines are some of the most effective vaccines ever invented.

Turns out, if you were the only vaccinated person in a house against smallpox, the efficacy was only 60-something percent. But vaccination also prevents you spreading to others, not just getting infected—so when everybody in a house was vaccinated, the efficacy rose to around 95%.

That's not unlike the COVID vaccines.
I would look into stats on social mobility by country.

Social mobility in the US is still pretty good last time I checked. Most European countries have have lower income income inequality, but less mobility. Eg, the difference between the bottom and top 25‰ is smaller, but your birth class is more predictive of your future income.
