On the other hand communication during this pandemic has been littered with point estimates where confidence intervals should have been used. Based on the FHI announcement, I think the result is not significant, but the decision was made because the Moderna vaccine is now redundant in Scandinavia.

Exactly. I don't work in the video-game industry, but the local (Québec) programmer scene is pretty small and information travels fast.

I've been told by people that work there that the employer already pays the equivalent of a 4 day week and that many employees are quitting now that WFH has opened up the market.

My personal understanding is that instead of increasing the pay, they are betting that by cutting a day, people will stay and keep the same level of crunch time.
In sweden, this seems to be the "recommendation" from the government: https://www.folkhalsomyndigheten.se/nyheter-och-press/nyhets...

..which links to https://www.lakemedelsverket.se/sv/nyheter/covid-19-mrna-vac...

..which in turn seems to point here: https://www.lakemedelsverket.se/4a0b25/globalassets/dokument...

..which references EMA & EES which are European that states "145 cases of myocarditis out of 177M dosis of Comirnaty".

Have anyone else found a better source?

Great list!

I started with the Apple machines. Missed that apparently sweet TI era and went Unix, and Sgi IRIX. (Beautiful OS)

Going small again, all the little micros and home brew 6502/Z80 projects.

You are right. I could explore the TI. :D. I just may. This scale of computing is a lot of fun!
Contributors that can bill hours to the foundation are people that have been involved for a while and who have a history of quality contributions. The foundation doesn't assign projects, people tend to have an affinity for a specific topic usually, but they are free to use their billable time to contribute to any part of the codebase.
The Israeli study was on Phizer. Finland is recommending people people not take Moderna and instead take the Phizer.

Without a more detailed case behind this it feels like "just trust us".

I'd really like some trust but verify. The lack of ability to verify many of these directions, especially with some of them from different organizations contradicting each other, is bothersome.
This looks great but did ZSF opt-in or are you including them here in the hopes they'd take donations from you?

Likely the latter?

Also, skimming the terms:

If we do not receive your preferences before we must disburse the funds, then we may in our sole discretion select an alternate Nonprofit to receive the Donation. We will do our best to direct your Donation to a Nonprofit in a similar space and/or with similar goals. Except in cases of fraud, we do not issue refunds.

If I can get Andy or ZSF representative to say they'll claim it from every.org I'd consider that. I can't find any obvious disclosure about margin/overhead from Every.org but I might still consider it despite that.

I didn't say it was a scam, I said it was gambling.

There are only two killer use cases for crypto: speculation and prohibited transactions.

That's not snarky those are actually pretty great use cases that have massive demand and centuries of success behind them as a product category.

A large part of crypto is scams, but it's clear not all of it is. You couldn't really argue that bitcoin, in general, is just a scam for example.

But beyond that it's basically all gambling. People put money into crypto hoping to get more money out. Period.

That's a really fucking desirable product it should be pointed out. It's so desired by people that you can build an entire city in a desert on the concept, it's common to all societies in all eras of history. People just absolutely fucking love to gamble.

Every argument against this seems to be a variation on "Well sure, but one day they might..." and so on.

Which is cool. You're absolutely right to say that. One day it might not just be gambling.

But today, it is. That's why there's money in it.
it is hard to say...anecdotally, I've seen generally that the further the electrode is located away from the posterior subthalamic nucleus, the higher the PW is needed to achieve any effect. Maybe the electrode probably needs it to send current over further distances. But it may be helpful to map things out if imaging is available.

Targeting has probably come a long way too. I remember pulling old MRI's from cases done in 2003 or so, and they just look so fuzzy and crude compared with modern machines...
Cooking food that is good for your body is not menial - it's central to living.

Geez, as the real data behind the vaccine slowly drips out I'm happier and happier I didn't inject an experimental drug in me. Especially considering all the "studies" thus far have taken place during summer when covid isn't an issue anyways.
What we've learned since their release:

- the spike protein is toxic

- vaccine immunity is narrow, binding to only a few epitopes on the virus

- immunity wanes quickly

- IgA antibodies aren't produced by the vaccine, causing vaccinated to still suffer infection

- heart inflammation becoming more and more common

- the mrna accumulated literally all over the body, not just the muscle as we were initially told

- manufacturing of these vaccines are subject to frequent contamination

And that's just to name a few. Glad didn't take the jab for a disease that's not a risk to most healthy young people.

1853 is when Admiral Perry showed up in Japan with gun boats and said "You will trade with us." Whatever the confusing economics were of trade with East Asia, we were not only active over there, we were being rudely pushy about it.
Indeed. A little clicking, and I couldn't find numbers either. Luckily raw numbers aren't all that necessary for decision making because:

> The risk of myocarditis is substantially increased for those who contract COVID-19, and vaccination is the best way to protect against this.

So even if only Moderna is available to you, you are still safer getting it than COVID-19. I think these countries are just making sure that each demographic gets the safest vaccine for them which is great.

I'd say the "each block contains the hash of a previous block" property is the implementation but not the key aspect. (Unless you count a git repo as a blockchain too)

I think the key aspect is that it is a database that no single person or organisation can delete or alter - not even the developers or operators of the database themselves. The only operation possible is append.

But this property requires that the majority of nodes participating in the chain are not under your control. When the nodes are under your control, you could just order them to swap out the current chain with one you just made up. (Which is effectively how git's "history rewriting" features work)
This doesn't provide any more integrity than an ordinary database.

On the other hand, if you want an append-only database and you already have a central gatekeeper that you trust (as required for access enforcement), you also can use an ordinary database and have the gatekeeper enforce the append-only property. No blockchain required.
But we weren't talking of just changing the price and keeping everything else the same. We were talking of not having to pay Apple, and passing the savings along to the consumer. With your numbers, the revenue was not 600k/month to start with. Apple was taking 180k of that, leaving you with 420k/month. So you getting 500k and Apple getting nothing sounds like a pretty good deal.
I think its gone
It should go without saying, but just in case: If you happen to be on the other end of the spectrum - someone who tends to blame themselves and easily forgives others. If you find yourself constantly forgiving someone who is damaging you then you need to focus on getting out of harm's way first. Then, by all means, forgive them from a distance.
I climbed over a wall in a police station to get into the loo to pee at .25. Drank a litre of water, climbed back over, sat on a bench and waited for someone to give me the drill. Leaving out a lot of details, wound up buying a piano. I don't drink and drive, though. That's mad.
They don't because if they put numbers and also described the usual clinical course of these cases it would show the issue to be a nothing burger.

The numbers I saw were about 1.0 per 100k were hospitalized for 2-3 days. No deaths and half those recovered completely after a month.

I haven't seen anyone say this but that's probably the same risk of myocarditis you get from the flu. And 100 times lower than the risk from covid.

I agree that the regulation and oversight they seek will be a mistake. They'll help create a regulatory regime which only Facebook will be in a position to comply with and stifle all competition in this space. That is definitely a concern I have with all the vitrol I see here.
A separate reply on the gambling part (my other reply is about utility).

You're not listening. Crypto holders don't care about those concerns. They willingly gamble. You can ban and shut down all of crypto (in reality, you can't) and they'll move to meme stocks or betting on sports.

You can't stop it or regulate it. Because it's a culture. It's an entire generation that is fucked anyway. Even the modest ambition of a middle class life style is out of reach. So they have nothing to lose, and will bet it all.

They aren't dumb or ignorant. They are fully self-aware, and self-identify as plebs, degenerates and ape investors. They know what they're doing.

The "concern" is misplaced and fails to impress. From their point of view, "regulation" is the traditional system which is exactly the reason why they're in crypto. The traditional system failed them.

The real concern should be aimed at the economic conditions that young people face. For as long as skeptics don't get that, they will never understand crypto and its culture.
I really wish more 0% beer was available in the US, and at reasonable prices. I've been buying Athletic Brewing stuff lately and it's good, but at $11-$12 for a six-pack it's priced the same as mid-tier microbrews.

I can buy good local micros for a few dollars less, so the NA pricing feels a bit wasteful. But I haven't been drinking alcohol lately, so... this is my choice if I want something beer-y tasting.

I think 464XLAT is probably the better solution currently as you can interop with things like websockets etc / SIP? One problem is none of this was default, 464XLAT came out because folks were trying to solve this. That's much different than every router that supports IPv6 auto supports a NAT64 type solution. Other issues are created because of overall protocol differences etc.
I think they might do more good saying fossil fuels have unpriced externalities of $11m/minute. Otherwise economically literate folk look at the headline and say not true while the others won't understand what they are on about.

>I will totally admit a lot of ignorance as I don't work in kernel spaces, but hasn't Linux had Async IO in the form of `epoll` for like 20 years? It's not the default but I feel like it's pretty commonly used.

As an API, epoll is kind of... suboptimal. Of course, lots of great things have been built with it, but there's a reason it's being replaced with io-uring, which is a lot more similar to Windows iocp.
Not sure which I fall into - maybe both

but I very rarely get a hangover (yes this does encourage/ allow school night drinking - inc now)

I have to drink either red wine or over 8 (uk - 568ml) pints of 5%abv lager to start to get fraction of a hangover the next day (starting at a slight thick head level)

incedently for me, eating stuff with sugar and alchol = major acid reflux this took ages to figure out why sometime I was throwing up in the middle of the night (no other symtoms)

another thing that is fairly obivious to me now is how proportional the effect is of the amount of food eaten before drinking and the speed of which you get drunk. This can be used to great effect for big drinking days (eg stag do)

I could easily drink all day comsuming > 15 (uk - 568ml, 5% abv) pints if I keep a level of food in my stomache

> "No one wants to hear the things that the people I disagree with say, so laws preventing them from saying those things aren't really censorship."

There's a difference between protesting at a town square and kneeling at a paid game. Again I don't really support what these state senators are doing (though they said they WEREN'T going to btw, so what are we talking about?)

> "The things my opponents say aren't as important as the things I want to say, so censoring me is worse than censoring them."

Being able to jack off to a certain site online vs shutting down political dissenters can be compared and I can find one more important than the other. That being said, I don't support porn laws and it represents a minority in the party. Evangelicals have a lot less power these days.

> "My side always loses and the other side is evil and always gets their way, so even if there are dark instincts on my side we should be worried more about the other side."

That's not what I said. I said they aren't the majority, EVEN IN THEIR OWN PARTY. Yes some evangelical R's do cross the line with the puritan crap, that doesn't represent the majority nor can it be COMPARED TO SHUTTING DOWN POLITICAL DISSENT.
The study is preliminary - but they're being cautious and recommending young men switch to the Pfizer vaccine since the risk of myocarditis is lower.

But just so people don't get the wrong idea, they're finding that the risk of myocarditis in young men who've actually caught Covid is something like 6x more likely than in those who received the vaccine:

https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.23.21260998v...

So if you're a young male, the correct response to avoiding myocarditis (among all of the other downsides that come with actually catching Covid) is to get vaccinated with the Pfizer or J&J shots.
> Heroin is already way past a reputational point of no return, but people are still using it.

The key is only a fraction use it. Facebook's intake is way way more than Heroin's.
I assume that the numbers reported (one comment quoted 6/39000) are actually lowballed, since you constantly hear about cases where symptoms obviously relevant to covid/vaccines are dismissed as not connected.

I would guess decisionmakers take the reluctance to report into account when estimating the true risk factors.

Taken and translated from THL's website[1] (Finnish Institute for Healt and Welfare ) "in its study, THL has examined the incidence of myocardial inflammation requiring hospitalization in different age groups.
In boys and men aged 12–39 years, a total of 6 cases of myocarditis have been reported in Finland per 381,000 doses of Comirnaty and less than 5 cases per less than 49,000 doses of Spikevax in Finland.
A total of less than five cases of myocarditis have been reported in girls and women of the same age, and the prevalence of myocarditis in women and girls after vaccination has not differed from that normally seen in the general population."

The study is still ongoing in Finland, but as the early results seem to match with the other nordic countries the limitation has been placed.

>The same $1 in the hands of a minimum wage worker might have different economic value than if it was in the hands of a millionaire because how it is likely to be used in the economy is different.

It's clearly better off in the hands of the minimum wage worker. It's funny how people deride governments as central planners when companies and their owners are committing that very same central planning at a smaller scale. The only difference is that the government is much bigger and when it isn't then local governments will lick the boots of the CEOs. When people talk about trickle down they are basically advocating for more central planning. 300 million brains aren't good enough, there is no way they could possibly know what they want, instead some rich millionaire or billionaire gets to tell them what they should want.

> My larger point about pensions specifically is that there's nothing inherently less risky in pensions from a purely accounting perspective.

For the recipient of an earned pension, there is substantially less volatility in future payout (as compared to defined contribution plans). There is some value in that for the individual. For people who are capable to save more than the minimum required in a personal account, an annuity is on-average worse than their own diversified portfolio of mostly equities. But for people saving/earning the minimum pension, capping downside risk has a pretty large benefit and, at least in that sense, I would say pensions are "inherently less risky".
