Well in Denmark with a high vaccine rate we have had ALL restriction lifted on sep 10.

I for one is almost daily in mass commute packed like 2019, and for a month, somehow the infection rate is basically flat, the hospitalizations is flat and the death toll is flat.

The danes enjoy our vaccinated "daily freedom" instead of arguing about (likely factful) technicalities about what exactly the vaccines do and does not protect against... As a citizen daily autonomy matters more to me than the mechanisms

EDIT: the infection rate might be underrepresented as we test vastly fewer now then in the summer, as the danish gov does not care as much about infection as bad outcomes (as we cannot eradicate the virus anyways)

The difference there is, I think, that the pragmatic argument of "not enough steel" doesn't prove the non-existence; while the argument about "there are no truly rigid bodies" does.

I haven't seen that Veritasium video, but it sounds like it makes the exact same point. It's not that we haven't found a material that's rigid enough; it's that a rigid disk is counter-factual to begin with, even in non-relativistic conditions.

In the apis that I am familiar with, there is typically generic, cross-cutting logging as a filter on all http requests, so you always log the "GET on /customers/123".

This is a given, it's typically done by "add the library, one line of code at startup to enable it"

While this technically qualifies as "Logging inputs before" it does not seem to be what the author is talking about. I was assuming that was present, and had been reached - cause if it had not, what request are you even debugging? Rather than some "«but it worked on my laptop» mentality" straw man.
> It is the second WORST voting system after first past the post

I dunno, I think random ballot is worse.

Its arguably the worst system that uses ranked choice ballots and ever considers more than the first position, though, which is why in should be called its proper name, “instant runoff voting”, and not “ranked choice”.

This is a fair counter example, but one also has to consider that (i) much of the referendum demand came from within his own party for ideological rather than practical reasons and (ii) he was able to implement it because the UK's electoral system and multiparty politics gave his party a clear majority with a minority of the vote .

Or put more simply: his personal standing within the party was threatened more than his party's electoral chances (UKIP votes were irrelevant in most Tory seats and took votes off Labour too in marginals), and he wouldn't have been in power anyway under a proportional system.

Ironically, EU Parliament votes being proportional probably played a major role in Farage deciding back in the nineties that he could try to win the Brexit debate from outside the Tory party too...

> So are the <T>, <B>, and <C> types ? Clojure has collections like [vectors], {maps}, '(lists/seq), #{sets} and a bunch of primitives that can fill up those collections, so I'm not certain how this relates exactly...

They are. It's the generic notation that you'll find in Java, C#, Rust, etc.. They are statically typed languages, so instead of just saying [vector] like in Clojure, you would say Vector<T>, where T is the type of the things in the vector. Vector<T> by itself is not a type. You can think of it as a function that takes a type and returns a type: with Int, you would get Vector<Int>, with String, you would get Vector<String>. This isn't limited to collections: Option<T> represents a value that may or may not be there, Result<R, E> represents something that can be either a result, or an error.

For the other collections, {maps} would be Map<A, B>, lists would be List<T>, sets would be Set<T>. Note that T, A or B don't mean anything specifically, they are variable names. Usually people use very abstract names for generics because they are very abstract. But you could also do List<Element> or Map<Key, Value>.

> Are promises and futures always monads?

Not all the time. For example, JavaScript promises aren't monads. There's a relatively popular discussion about it here: https://github.com/promises-aplus/promises-spec/issues/94.

As another example of a monads, there Option<T>, called Maybe<T> in Haskell. It's used for a value that could be there. Java has Optional that looks like it, but isn't a monad since it doesn't follow the monad laws: https://www.sitepoint.com/how-optional-breaks-the-monad-laws....

A good way to think about monads is to think about them as mathematical objects. They respect some rules, and thus have some properties. When you're implementing something in a language, like promises, you can choose to have them respect the monad rules, so that they can have the monad properties. You can also not do that (like they did in JavaScript), and so people won't be able to use them like monads.
I'd be fascinated to hear how it works in practice to have that many tabs active? Are you able to digest them in any reasonable fashion or even find content later on when you need it?

I can't relate to that amount of tabs, but do have an upper limit of around 100 at which time I start actively trimming them down (either dismiss as having lost importance, digest or bookmark for later digestion).

My bookmarks steadily grow, but are categorized, tagged and labelled in such a way that I can easily find and digest certain types of urls later on when I feel ready for it. They do grow faster then I can consume them though.
I would say that since I have spent time ensuring that exceptions are properly detailed, and those details properly logged (1), this is correct, but is not an invariant that makes exceptions useless. It is often something to fix.

No, its not. That would be a big advantage of the method equivalent to it but without loser elimination and instead counting each rank down on all ballots simultaneously, which is both easier to understand and much easier to implement.

Spherical cows, naturally, dream of spherical potatoes in a vacuum whilst grazing next to spherical chickens.
When I buy potatoes I am interested to buy 10 kg mass of potatoes, not the amount or potatoes of which has a gravity force of 98,1N. On mars you need to eat 10 kg of potatoes a week, not the amount of which has 98,1N gravity force.

The scales in the supermarket on earth automatically convert the weight into mass for my convenience by applying a constant factor of 1/9,81.

I am hardly far away enough from earth that the constant changed, so I did not need to distinguish between the two measures so far. When carrying the potatoes home I just use the mass of 10 kg as a proxy for the force I need.

And to determine the increased breaking distance of my car, I need to know the mass again.

> The right "diet" is the one you can consistently adhere to.

This is incredibly important. Having managed to lose a lot of weight, gradually, and then keep it off for several years, the key for me was finding something that fitted into my life and to which I could stick. I also gradually changed things, rather than doing a big-bang change.

My problem over the last few years has been the effect of having children. Between the sleep deprevation and the change to my schedules I found it a lot harder to stick to my previous routines, resulting in me falling back into old habits. I'm now trying small changes, starting with at 10/14 routine, which I'll probably make more strict (8/16) in the future once it's become habitual. If nothing else I'm finding I sleep better than when I ate later in the day, which improves my will-power, and having a period of being hungry makes resisting snacks easier during the eating period.

Good habits are hard to form and keep, and bad habits are even harder to break permanently. You have to be kind to yourself and take your time if you want those changes to be for the rest of your life. Losing weight is simple, but hard.

That is correct and should be highlighted more.

In a way the real numbers are a model (or maybe a 'language') to describe physical phenomena. They work exceptionally well at that, but they are not backed by evidence and do come with (theoretical) limitations.

This bachelor's thesis is a good starting point [1], search for 'finite precision physics' or 'intuitionistic math/physics'.

Sweden has an extremely complex system for tallying votes and very very few people can explain the exact algorithm that turns a collection of ballots into a list of names of people in Parliament. Even people that follow politics closely only have a vague idea of how it works. Yet most people feel the system is fair and reasonable and there is no real push to change it or make it simpler to understand.

I enjoy coming into the office, hanging with my colleagues and drinking the coffee.

Sure, my home-office setup is probably better in every way, better keyboard, better monitors, better chair, faster internet connection, the ability to blast music at high volumes...

But I'm not a social person, I have one friend, we hang once a week, and it's great, a weekly highlight. But I like that there are people around at the office, that I can optionally goof-off with, people with my kind of humor, people who know about endianness beyond Lilliput but also know about Lilliput.

Yes, I know in some theoretical scenario where the developers do everything exactly right none of these problems would exist. My argument is not that it's intrinsic to the technology, my argument is that my _experience_ is that the vast majority of (needless) SPAs are like this. Whether it's because frontend developers get all hot to re-implement standard browser features themself using redux, because the tooling is bad, or what, I can't tell you.

My only issues with command strips has been that I've had the paint come off the wall. This seems to be a problem with some types of paint but not others, where they don't bond as well with the wall/undercoat.

Obviously not a problem with the strips themselves, just something to bear in mind when using them.
SREs live in a dangerous world, unfortunately. It's entirely possible the "tool" in question is a shell script that gets fed a list of bad cells but some bug causes it to get a list of all the cells instead.

Some tools are well engineered, capable of the Sisyphean task of globally deploying updates but others are rapid prototypes that, sure, are too dangerous to exist, but the whole point of SREs being capable programmers is that the work has problems that are most efficiently solved with one-off code that just isn't (because it can't be) rigorously tested before being used. You can bet there was some of that used in recovering from this incident. (I'm sure there were many eyes reviewing the code before being run, but that only goes so far when you're trying to do something that you never expected, like having to revive Facebook.)

In Brazil a couple parties sprouted up in the past few years: Novo (New) and MBL (Free Brazil Movement). They both position themselves as being "outside" of the left-right spectrum.

And of course, it's a marketing trick to capture people who are 'fed up with the system' and don't realize it is an impossible proposition. If you're in government you'll inevitably have to position yourself on all issues, including labour laws, social safety nets, property rights and so on.

Invariably these parties sit on the right of the political spectrum. The current government already ran with this idea back then, made of "outsiders" who incidentally have really far-right ideas and associate with the military. But they see themselves as "apolitical", whatever that means...

One thing I find particularly concerning in these plans is how people want to use them. Lots of people inevitably suggest under these posts that we just use DAC as counterbalance instead of reducing emissions. This is very much impossible as optimistic reduction scenarios still need trillions annually from every country and a no-reduction scheme would lead to hundreds upon hundreds of trillions of global DAC funding, far more than the GDP of the Earth is right now. This is the scale of the megaproject we need to undertake.

The only way we can make these things viable is massive funding and incredible carbon emissions reduction. This is very literally the largest industrial project that ever has happened, a re-terraforming of our own planet. There is absolutely no way we are going to succeed without full effort from all countries.

It's not terribly easy to overcome.
