Sometimes you cannot help everyone and have to make hard choices, but be wary: atrocities don't happen in a vacuum. Behind every historical Red Terror or Holocaust is a narrative, and it almost always goes along these lines: they're a danger to us and they deserve it. Even the eugenicists had a (temporarily) convincing tale.

You cannot rely on "being right this time" to avoid participating in tragedy. The liars are too good. But you can refuse to hate and dehumanize those you are told to.

If you truly believe that medical care is a human right, then you should extend it to every human, regardless of how they wound up in the situation they're in. While you sometimes do have to choose, it is abhorrent to choose the rich over the poor, the socially well-adjusted over the outcasts, ideological friends over ideological foes. The standard we actually use is to do the absolute best you can for everyone you can.

You're right that it doesn't make sense to cause greater harm to avoid lesser, but rationing too quickly, especially from a place of moral judgement rather than medical triage, seems much more likely to be coming from a place of spite than a place of tragic necessity. We take care of enemy soldiers. We take care of people on death row. We take care of people who would see us dead, because this is what civilized and humane people do. If you are quick to deny care to people you perceive as not doing their part, you're coming from a perspective much, much darker than the general thought and ethics of this civilization.

I know everyone is angry and has suffered in the last couple years, and I know everyone wants to fight. There are people running around right now stirring up that anger and trying to direct it at their ideological enemies. By all means, fight for what you think is right. But if you find yourself indifferent to the death of your fellow man or even cheering for it, beware - it may make sense to you right now, but that will be no comfort in five or ten or twenty years if what you wish for comes to pass and you have to remember cheering for it.
Scaling does take time, but you would normally scale based on resource utilization (like if CPU or RAM usage exceeded 70%). So unless you had a really large and abrupt spike in traffic, the new container would be up before it's actually needed.

It's definitely not apples to apples with Lambda though--if you do have a very bursty workload, the cold start would be slower with Fargate, and you'd probably drop some requests too while scaling up.

If your app allows for it, a pattern I like is Fargate for the main server with a Lambda failover. That way you avoid cold starts with normal traffic patterns, and can also absorb a big spike if needed.
I think what people are complaining about is the fact that the linked project is not the project that actually solves the problem stated in the title. This linked project did not enable “using a raspberry pi as an airplay server,” it just packaged someone’s project that already did that.
>Abrahamic religions, OTOH, make claims that are, based on already collected data, demonstrably false.

What claims? There are so many denominations of protestant Christianity alone that I don't think you could even go so far as to say that "Abrahamic religions make claims." Maybe one specific sect makes a claim.
the headline is attention seeking since there are numerous pre-existing brain atlases that describe the anatomy/cellular/molecular parts in different ways. You can check https://portal.brain-map.org/ for many examples.

I think a good comparison to this kind of work is what has happened previously in astronomy, where scientists work to answer their specific questions using large open datasets acquired using shared infrastructure (fancy telescopes for astronomy, microscopes for biology).

I mostly have, which is the only reason I haven't taken my own (implicit) advice and become parasitic, like everyone else who's (personally) successful in large enterprises. That would have been a better move for my finances, for sure, but I don't really have the stomach for it.

OTOH I still think that complaining that people at or near the bottom of the org chart follow incentives to achieve better personal outcomes, because it might hurt the company a little, is naïve at best—at worst, it's propaganda in the class war. "Workers, please limit your own career trajectory to help out the company. Here, let me (deliberately?) misunderstand your motivations and, as is typical, present developers as akin to children, not like the fully-formed adults in management".

Haha. No.
Also Fauci in early March 2020 mocking the idea of people changing their travel plans as an overreaction.

Also Fauci shooting-down lab-origin theories in public, while his private emails – still heavily redacted! – imply contemporaneous discussion of such an origin as a serious possibility.

Also Fauci misestimating a vaccine as at least a year and half away.

Also Fauci helping to fluff Trump's lowball estimates of the pandemic ending by summer 2020 with "more like the 60k" dead. (Only off by 12x, and still growing!)

Also Fauci overclaiming the rushed EUA 3wk/4wk mRNA vax dose spacings as 'optimal' & important not-to-delay... when precedent from other vaccines was that 8wks or longer is better for stronger & more durable immunity. (Data from other countries with wiser spacing has now confirmed, as true experts would have expected, that longer spacing is better. So the insistence of Fauci/CDC on rushed 2nd doses now leaving vaccinated Americans with more, and more severe, breakthrough infections.)

A second Facebook whistleblower says she's willing to testify before Congress
With how governments have behaved I absolutely understand why people would distrust them and to be honest, I have absolutely zero trust in government right now too. They put politics and driving wedges between people to further entrench their positions (a bunch of provinces and our feds all called snap elections during Covid) over honesty and people. Even now instead of trying to assuage the fears of the vaccine hesitant, they just demonise and threaten them.

Personally, the only trust I have is that a bunch of PhDs making vaccines care about solving a hard problem, so I got the vaccine. Not that I was ever worried about Covid itself, I had Covid during wave 1, had contact with a bunch of Covid positive people in wave 2 without contracting it again, etc...
One problem is there really is some risk with the vaccine. At a population level its best if everyone takes the vaccine - there are huge benefits, but unfortunately a small minority gets hurt. Its best if everyone else gets vaccinated except for me. Of course when everyone wants to be that exception the vaccination doesn't stop community spread so people get sick.

The problem is the hard truth of "take the risk because society benefits" doesn't work in an American me-first mentality.

> The web was an absolute game changer.

In the fact that it made rank-and-file CRUD harder. The web's state-less-ness and screwy anti-wysiwyg UI "auto-flow" made CRUD into a convoluted whack-a-mole mess even its mother hates. It takes about 3x as long and 3x more code to develop a CRUD app in web now. We have to focus on tech & UI minutia instead of the domain. We de-evolved and nobody seems to care. The Jetsons were shot in head point blank, replaced with the Flinstone DOM.

The web may be is a godsend for e-commerce and social networks, but it sucks rotting eggs for office CRUD: the wrong tool for the job.

Honestly this is a pretty hand-wavy article from a respected journal and I think represents the kind of thing we need less of, not more of

His actual research is pretty sparse and comparing the Danish government to every other government glosses over any number of correlation/causation issues.

Yet it gets cited and quoted and everyone jumps on it as confirmation of everything they believed before they read it.

People need to start questioning the articles that they _agree_ with. If nothing in the article challenges your beliefs, if nothing in the research or conclusions surprise you or makes you consider things differently in any way, than it deserves more skepticism, not less.

A whole lot of sites are generating a whole lot of clicks and making a whole lot of money by the simple process of validating their audiences beliefs. It is unimaginably destructive.

The more I deal with various government systems/entities, the more I realize the level of incompetence and misinformation that exists. Also the lack of transparency and accountability.
This is just subjective value, again. He wants permission to continue, thus he wants profits. From there we can conclude that there is a profit motive.

Agreed. Take both seriously or neither seriously. From God, Cartesian skepticism, to brains in vats, to the simulation hypothesis—there are infinitely many unprovable metaphysical theories we could posit about the world. There doesn't seem to be much sense in favoring one over the other.

We have a good understanding of the origins of religion via archaeological, historical, and anthropological accounts. Insofar as supernatural claims about God from religious texts can be made sense of, they are inconsistent with physics (or if you prefer, false). This leaves room for a more abstract "God", or a God-falsified history, but even if we ultimately know the genealogy of the idea, we should consider the possibility.

We could say similar things about the simulation hypothesis. It arrives in the information age, at at time when the high-performance computing, The Matrix, and virtual reality are culturally salient. Out of context, the simulation hypothesis looks like just another metaphor/myth about the creation of the universe. Proponents of the simulation hypothesis suggest that the proof of the simulation can be found by examining inconsistencies in the universe's structure, as if that will eliminate all other improvable explanations. Hint: it doesn't, and even if you think it does, you can't infer anything about the "real world" without assuming it tracks with the simulation. Again, there is no reason to believe this.

Some would say the simulation hypothesis is testable and that this marks an important distinction. But are any conceivable tests specific to simulation, and not generalizable to alternative metaphysical theories or to misunderstood features of the universe? Either way, I predict the simulation hypothesis will live on after the "tests" have failed time, and time again. Sound familiar?
This is the exact thing I was wondering about. As far as I understood, they flashed GApps, even though GApps is not part of the default installation. I wonder what the findings would've been like on LineageOS without the GApps.
Definitely.

In fact, it's super easy to back up as it's in a SQLite database (for now).
What's tone deaf and patronizing about your responses is that you assume that your personal working style is the best and only one for every person. Imagine not understanding that different people are different, and as a result may have working styles that are different too.
Canada's Dr. Tam said at the beginning of the pandemic that we were in pretty good shape because we learned important lessons from SARS.

And then we promptly ran low on PPE.

And told everybody that masking was not important because there was no evidence that there was airborne transmission.
There’s still data sent to Google as part of Android except for currently obscure ones like /e/ and Graphene.

As someone trying to build a fusion reactor of my own design, I worry about this myself. I just have to believe that advancing the state of the art is a good thing, not a bad thing, and that my efforts will pay off.
This is such a silly mentality. Deciding to not do something that should be done just because someone who is incompetent tells you to is the definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

You aren't 'punishing' those in power by not taking the vaccine. You are punishing every other person in society.

Yep, this works really well and for directly accessing files in WSL 2's file system from Windows, @lenova's sibling comment goes over that process.

To expand on that, I also have this path in my Windows explorer "Quick access" list: \\wsl$\Ubuntu-20.04\home\nick

It's a shortcut to my home directory inside of WSL 2 for quick access. It's useful in the cases where I want to drag / drop a photo or something from Windows into WSL 2's world.
Being anti-nuclear is more like being anti-facebook. Nuclear is a giant centralized free-loading subsidized secretive toxic industry. Just like nuclear.

>Because nuclear is the only one with multigenerational risks

As opposed to continuing to emit carbon? this mischaracterisation of the threat is dangerous. The climate is changing right now. We literally cannot afford to bicker and wait for an indeterminate point in the future when entire grids will run on wind, solar and batteries.

We have a solution now. That solution is nuclear power and will buy us time to transition to a fully renewable grid.
They are talking about https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines
The lack of support for nuclear power is truly astounding, especially as we watch the slow motion car crash of climate change happening around us.

It's obviously unsurprising from anti-science Republicans, but the Democratic party as a whole should be deeply embarrassed that they're going toe to toe on irrationality with the other side on such an important issue.
> But the upside is that hopefully the govt/health authorities will learn a lesson and be better in the future.

But there's only so much they can do. Sowing distrust has proven to provide short-term self-benefit to many powerful interests (e.g. political factions, partisan media). Even if the health authorities have a perfect strategy, those interests will find an opening to subvert it (e.g. portraying initial confusion as lying).
I actually have a preference towards Nature Communications over Nature, as Nature Communications actually allows more pages for explanation and as such typically has more rigorous research.

On the flip side, Nature often has bolder claims with less convincing evidence, which often reads similar to pop-sci articles.

Yes, the reactor cores would have to be replaced every 12-15 years. But if the reactors are mass produced and designed to swap out the cores, it doesn't have to be too expensive.

I like Azure in general, but Function cold start times are really awful.

I regularly see start up times exceeding 10s for small, dotnet based functions. One is an auth endpoint for a self-hosted Docker registry, and the Docker CLI often times out when logging in if there is a cold start. I'm planning on moving these functions to Docker containers hosted in a VM.

I have other issues with Functions too. If you enable client certificates, the portal UI becomes pretty useless, with lots of stuff inaccessible. I have one such endpoint in production just now, and it's even worse than that, as every now and then it just... stops working until I manually restart it. Nothing useful in the logs either.
What do you mean? Posts don't have a downvote button.
None of those have had the global impact of COVID-19, so it think it's pretty easy to not count them as on the same level.
It usually happens when someone pays with a credit or debit card. If the confirmation is not given in the app within a certain time limit, the bank rejects the card transaction.

Edit: to clarify, my comment is about the UK, and it does not happen with most card transactions; "usually" here refers instead to card transactions being the usual trigger (in my experience) for this app-based authentication flow.
Nuclear can also directly generate heat, for residential district heat, or industrial processes heat
You increase carbon taxes, outlaw fossil fuels and subsidize alternatives. This kind of innovation doesn't work without government intervention.
We lost the sense of urgency and the connection between our decisions, what happens, and why we feel the way we do. It was also helped along by the ‘green field’ nature of Nuclear at the time (writing new code is easier than fixing a legacy code base, and making a new design when you don’t know and have to consider the bazillion regulations and gotchas since discovered is also easier), and a general ‘do it’ mindset after the massive destruction of the war and ongoing rebuilding.

Mostly now we’re not in a hurry because we ‘already have stuff that works’ because we’ve had so many of those prior projects ‘just work’ (hint: they didn’t, it took massive hard work to make them happen - but the people alive today were not the ones getting dirty on the ground there, so they don’t know that). And we haven’t had many big disasters around them yet (as in electric grid collapses for a month in winter and can’t be restarted) to give it more urgency and importance.

In some ways I think we’re in a classic ‘rich kid’ fallacy.

Hey, we have so much money, why do we need to be responsible right? We can be irresponsible because even if we crash the Porsche we got for our birthday, we’ll get a new one in a week anyway.

Well, we only have so much money because the prior generation worked so hard (and stole a bunch of stuff and murdered a bunch of people, but hey whatever - sometimes folks need their illusions), and while the inheritance might last
if we keep pissing it away, it usually doesn’t for very long. And one of these days we’re going to crash the Porsche and end up with life long medical issues.

It does tend to self correct, but oooof does the other side of the curve hurt. And sometimes whatever mindset or situation created the wealth in the first place just never is recaptured. Greece and Italy are certainly not on a trajectory back to world defining empire status anytime soon, and are more
