TL;DR: up to a 6.1x rate of cardiac adverse effects from mRNA vaccination compared to Covid 19 hospitalization for teen-aged boys.

> Results A total of 257 CAEs [cardiac adverse effect] were identified. Rates per million following dose 2 among males were 162.2 (ages 12-15) and 94.0 (ages 16-17); among females, rates were 13.0 and 13.4 per million, respectively. For boys 12-15 without medical comorbidities receiving their second mRNA vaccination dose, the rate of CAE is 3.7 to 6.1 times higher than their 120-day COVID-19 hospitalization risk as of August 21, 2021 (7-day hospitalizations 1.5/100k population) and 2.6-4.3-fold higher at times of high weekly hospitalization risk (7-day hospitalizations 2.1/100k), such as during January 2021. For boys 16-17 without medical comorbidities, the rate of CAE is currently 2.1 to 3.5 times higher than their 120-day COVID-19 hospitalization risk, and 1.5 to 2.5 times higher at times of high weekly COVID-19 hospitalization.

If you look back on Mitchell's words about protecting Mozilla's independence from, e.g. Google: https://web.archive.org/web/20120105090543/https://www.compu...

... it would seem that 14 more years of eating out of Google's hands(with ever growing sums) has softened their resolve.

"The things that make Mozilla and Firefox a success [are] the product, and the community that cares about it."

First and foremost, we would protect those things," Baker said. "If the protection of those things would come into conflict with Google, or any of our search partners, we would opt for the community who built Firefox and love Firefox."

... would that it were so.

I'd guess it was for the families of sailors. They may hear through the grapevine that there was an accident, but think it would be good to get out in front of it to state there was an accident but there were no life threatening injuries so that no undue grief is caused. It seems like it would be a little nerve racking thinking about a loved one even just working on a submarine.

Even if the benefits outweigh the drawbacks for society you cannot make that calculation. You cannot administer a vaccine to a healthy person just because it doesn't increase their risk of dying as much as it decreases someone else's risk of surviving. Young healthy men should not be coerced into accepting an elevated risk because getting to herd immunity or whatever might save old and at risk persons.

For children and healthy young people below the age of 30, Covid is mostly harmless (https://www.bbc.com/news/health-57766717). The risk of vaccination may actually be higher since the vaccines currently used aren't fully researched nor fully approved yet. The situation is not black or white. Vaccination may be very useful for people aged 50 and above but at the same time counterproductive for children.

Incorrect.

It has been and can be done without JavaScript as well - with frames, it wasn't because of some z-index problem (so you needed JS to rewrite from hidden iframe) then XMLHttpRequest happened, isn't because lack of knowledge how to properly use them.

Yes, Baker had a high salary in 2017/2018 after the Yahoo deal where they improved revenue by over a hundred million dollars a year, though she wasn't "Mozilla's top executive." Her 2019 salary is not public yet, just a sum total paid to "management and administration."

>OP is obviously talking about CEX

Certainly -- I agree OP (arcticbull) was replying to a comment about DeFI by explaining the dangers of a centralized exchange! That makes it a confused, unhelpful response, not one that "obviously" meant something coherent if you squint hard enough and practice sufficiently strained exegesis.

>As for DEXs being manipulated, absolutely not sure why you believe that’s the case? This has nothing to do with DEXs and everything to do with margin (which are coming to DEXs).

Margin has "come to" DEX the moment smartcontracts offer collateralized DeFi lending, which they have, so I'm not sure what you mean here.

>DEXs and AMMs make it much more expensive to provide liquidity in terms of capital efficiency versus CEXs, and thus more vulnerable to manipulation.

The reason (I'm claiming) centralized exchanges are more vulnerable is that

a) they own the platform and are the word of god on it -- whence the stories of people getting margin called at flash-crash prices that don't exist on other platforms. If they say prices are trading at some level, you just have to deal with it. That's not possible when you have to trade how the algorithm says.

b) If someone "stupidly" buys in one direction on a DEX, "for manipulation", they've vulnerable to the entire universe of arbitrageurs who can exploit the resultant price differences. Inter-[centralized] exchange arbitrage is much harder.

I brought up the point simply to emphasize that, to the extent that there's manipulation, it does not look like the manipulation you'd see on CEX, which was how OP was basing his argument.

Furthermore, even the issue of more expensive liquidity from transaction fees wouldn't be true for the far-cheaper L2 sidechains.

(Btw, you might want to use the terms in their unabbreviated forms at least once just to make it easy on people who aren't up to speed.)

Is it likely that if both the vaccine and the virus cause it, that the symptom could be related to the spike protein itself?

In that case, I'd expect all of the vaccines to have a similar risk, and it's only been spotted in one so far

Australia's superannuation system is a disaster.

Compared to Norway's SWF:

- Fees are 20x larger as a proportion of AUM ($30 billion a year, nearly as much as the military budget, and 2x what the country spends on electricity)

- The assets are overwhelmingly owned by people who are already rich (Norway's SWF shares the wealth equally)

- Super has totally failed to prevent retirement poverty (elderly single women are the most impoverished demographic in Australia).
I personally know three persons that got some degree of chest pain. I had worse symptoms than they did, now 3 months later I can let my heart rate hit maximum, which is significantly lower than before.

> As for what the submarine hit, details remain limit. U.S. officials have reportedly said that there are no indications at present that the "object" was another submarine.

"No indications at present" does not mean the same thing as "did not." Neither gives a proper quote of whatever statement they're paraphrasing, but I can easily see the former being transmuted into the latter by a careless journalist.

I can see alot more companies moving out of California. I don't want to go into a california bashing comment as a 4th generation resident but there are some things that are going very wrong here.

- For the first time ever California has shrunk in population(2020 census), I expect in the next 10 years to see that accelerate further.

- Housing is at a level where a majority of residents can no longer buy a house, average home price is $850k. Newsom's plan to add 2 duplex's to a single family plot may help but its just not enough.

- Homelessness is atrocious, CA spends 15B a year on the problem and its gotten dramatically worse every year, This tracks with housing being expensive.

- Wildfires are out of control, I have lived in the state my entire life and have never seen such chaos in the past 3-4 years, the governor blames climate change but actual scientists beg to differ.*

Automatic Emergency Braking is amazing and it never gets talked about. I’ve logged 40k miles in my 2019 Subaru with Eyesight and it very reliably notices dangerous situations. Other vehicles hard stopping in front of me is the most common occurrence, and it always hits that sweet spot of me being glad it alerted me so I could brake before it had to.

I’ve had one instance where it went straight to braking - I took a right turn at low speed onto a neighborhood street and encountered a cyclist in my lane coming quickly and directly towards me, about 20 feet away. The car stopped itself. It was jarring but I wouldn’t say it was an overreaction.

I can only think of 1-2 cases where it’s truly given a false alarm - both at low speed on a city street with thick steam coming from a manhole in front of me, which Subaru says in the manual is a difficult situation. Both times I only got a momentary audible alarm; tap the brakes and it stops.

The reliability of AEB definitely varies by manufacturer, but I’m impressed by it.
Buying stuff you know you shouldn't eat is just present you finding yet another way to screw over future you.

Also serving size matters. It's cheaper 'per serving' to get the larger container, until you are honest with yourself about how big your serving is actually going to be, and how much time and energy (and possibly money) it's going to take to undo.

Buying the single serving chips or the smaller cans ends up being cheaper for me, overall. A serving of fancy chips is a treat. A whole bag of them is just self-recrimination in a crinkly bag.

Another way to think of these people are the most talented, highly educated pool and casting them as somehow less capable or more entitled is just pure political spin. (There's people from this pool that are right leaning, but just a lower proportion of them.)
Is it just me does this seem like some flimsy research?

I mean asking people to choose between two types of paper and observing that people who choose type A are more likely to choose type A the next time is hardly conclusive evidence of anything. It'd be weirder if it didn't happen.

And if you ask people for reasons why they shouldn't open a bottle of wine just yet they're obviously going to suggest that they're waiting for a better occasion.

For something that doesn't even seem like much of a problem, or at least hasn't been established to be a problem by anything other than the author's gut feeling, this all doesn't seem to amount to much more than just affirming people's preconceptions.

Maybe you can explain this message from the Federal Reserve [0] to me, because I must be misunderstanding.

> As announced on March 15, 2020, the Board reduced reserve requirement ratios to zero percent effective March 26, 2020. This action eliminated reserve requirements for all depository institutions.

I've been swayed by the MMT videos on youtube which I know are controversial, but it seems to me that when a bank makes a loan, its deposits on-the-books increase, they do not have to have deposits equal to liabilities, and in fact a loan is not a liability to the bank, it is a liability to the borrower. Am I wrong?

Doesn't gaining 600 points mean that you are able to beat the "old you" (or more precisely, people who you used to be even with) with 99% probability?

I don't know what it means in theory. In practice I win and then lose 200 points in lichess in a few days.

Some time ago I used to win and lose 100 around the day in a cycle. Maybe ratings aren't adjusted around the globe, so for the same points there are different skill levels as you go through time zones.

There's a fact that really annoys me: for my 2+1 bullet, it's harder to be at 1500 than at 1600. Once I'm at 1600, I can reach 1700 with a winning streak. If I fall into 1500, I tend to get stuck there.
It also takes incentive away from the scientist with an unpopular or unique hypothesis. That stifles innovation.
I think you’d find less confusion if you said “I am Japanese”. It’s not clear to me that “a Japanese” is wrong, it’s just not something I’ve heard before in terms of English phrasing. Similarly, I would likely say “I am Korean” rather than “I am a Korean”.

You doubt it because you aren't a compiler developer, so you aren't aware of the history. Try taking some of the classic Fortran scientific programming libraries, such as LAPACK, recoding them in C, and then see what happens when you need to generate code with a compiler that doesn't do any of the optimizations the article complains about and has no undefined behavior. Then you'll figure out why.
Personally, I don't think I'll ever need to hide crypto from the government and I pay my taxes. However, I figure that it could be regular thieves with guns, too. I get that this thread was going in the direction of government, but I think people with guns can be pretty general. What I think is cool is that technology like this has never existed. Banks were the only way to have this level of security. You don't get that with physical gold or physical cash. How do people not see how innovative this is? It's a way to store money outside of the traditional financial system, just like gold, except it's much harder to seize, much easier to transfer, is much more divisible, etc. You can literally store a million dollars in your head by memorizing a 12 word mnemonic seed, or hand a million dollars to someone via a paper or hardware wallet. How do people not think that is cool?
The initial contention was that tesla's autopilot was superior to humans, at a specific task. If this were true, it would be very interesting, and represent real progress in the self driving space.

I have went down to about 20 hour work weeks since I started working from home (1.5yrs ago) and am about as productive as 40 hour weeks in the office. In that time I have been marked as a top performer and promoted to lead a team.

The trick is to start working the shorter weeks and not ask for permission. As long as you fulfill your duties and are flexible when needed nobody will notice. No where in my employment contract does it say my ass needs to be in a seat for 40 hours a week so I have no moral problems with my arrangement.
Dystopian movies have obviously gotten it wrong. The attack drones won't be slowly scanning the forest for escapees above the canopy but will instead rip through the forest in large packs at 40km/hr. How uber-dystopian.
For liquid assets maybe. But if total assets -- liquid and otherwise -- are insufficient to cover all liabilities, then the bank is straight up insolvent.
One way out of this is if the special item somehow becomes worthless over time. A food item that spoils, clothing that goes so hopelessly out of style that you can never wear it, gadgets that are no longer compatible with anything.

Another is if you can convince yourself that it'll be just as special to some other person, then pass it on to them. But in that case, don't ask about it later, in case you were wrong.
I don't think so, the only thing that separates lawyers/Dr's etc vs. developers is there is no requirement for a degree or certification for a developer. With the other professions there is.

> It's super cool that their 5K turns into 6K in 10 years time

Ok, I get it. You’ve not actually looked at what other investments are like. 20% return over 10 years? The S&P 500 is on track to do that this year, after one of the biggest rallies in history last year. $5k invested just before the covid collapse would still be worth far more than $6k, and that’s 18 months through a global pandemic.

That said, your answered your own issue: homes are unaffordable. I’m with you on that: we turned housing into retirement plans for boomers. And now we don’t know what to do about it.

There’s an old adage in commodities trading: the best cure for high prices is high prices. The meaning behind this is that when prices are too high and people can’t or won’t buy, then prices can only go down. Over the next few decades, young people will either earn substantially more, or housing will become substantially cheaper.

You can’t sell anyone a home for $485k if they can only get a $166k mortgage. So these things will converge.

> Or, in other words, the "wrench" solution has significant drawbacks that make it difficult for current governments to implement.

No, it doesn't. Its literally what every government seizure of anything uses. It’s force or the threat thereof top to bottom. Sure, a lot of it is invisible because it is routine, but it is routine because society is adapted to the reality of the threat.

Even to the extent that you might be right, does “bitcoin disproportionately reduces the effectiveness of governments that have a strong evidentiary threshold for the application of force against those within their power” make it a good thing, likely to benefit the world by broad adoption?

I highly doubt that. It's tiring and frustrating to debate people who are not constrained by existing data or logical consistency. Such debates will not help making policy decisions, just slow it down.

If anyone has "nuggets of truth," it's their responsibility to read up on the current understanding of the climate, review their position, and build a persuasive case.
