> As for my examples, they were hit by COVID a month before vaccines were made available to them

I'm sorry for your relations that caught it, but my question was rhetorical. Using unvaccinated people's suffering doesn't help the argument that we should force people to get vaccinated against their will, if the vaccines work for people who want to take them.

If you suffer when you are unvaccinated-by-choice, then that is on you.

> 1. Less reservoirs for viruses to mutate into more harmful strains.

As opposed to the population that has taken the vaccine, but is still capable of catching it due to "break through cases"? Wouldn't a "leaky" vaccine cause more mutation due to evolutionary pressure than people catching it and building immunity?

> 2. There are people who are immunocompromised , who cannot take vaccines . They are protected by those who are healthy and have been vaccinated.

Why are they "protected", and the people who aren't vaccinated by choice not "protected"?

> 3. >90% of all recent COVID deaths in the US have been of unvaccinated persons. A non trivial percent of the vaccinated dead by COVID were immunocompromised who were infected by unvaccinated folks.

What happens when an vaccinated person has a break through case and gives it to an unvaccinated person who is immunocompromised?

> If these reasons cannot convince you, I don't know what can.

I'm not convinced. This seems more like an ethics litany than a reason we should a) create two classes of citizenry (the vaccinated and the unvaccinated) or b) violate people's body autonomy "for their own good".

Just ignore the douchebags that came up with that rebranding strategy and the journalists that indulge them.
It's all a massive show put on to get the investors money.
It's wrong to reduce a country of 60 millions people to be "good chef and good designers".
Don't lean into stereotypes of other countries and don't listen to people that try to use stereotypes to market you products from that country.

Fear is a pretty useful motivating factor to quit smoking as well. I'm not sure why you would quit, if you weren't afraid of cardiovascular disease, emphysema, cancer, and so on.

A lot of these things are nuanced by history - when computers had limited memory and disk everyone wanted to use shared libraries.

However now the pendulum has swung to totally ignoring performance and focusing on reducing staffing costs which is higher than buying faster hardware - essentially everything now is just the equivalent of a static binary which makes development and deployment easy, but chews up memory and disk.

It has downsides however, every time a vulnerability comes out you don't just update a single library, you have to update every app.
The graph is that bad. the scales start at 80 and 70 which make random noise looks like significant information.

There must be around 4-5000 registries and registrars out there. That seems like an ungodly amount of work..
Exactly. The real "problem" is how easy it is to install and upgrade packages.

They took the painful part out of library management, and now they expect breaking changes should magically be resolved.

The funny part is that there is no comparison to other development ecosystems. "Oh yeah, in C++ we don't have this problem, since everything is even more painful"
In the comments he describes the issue in more detail. In this case the word "poof" is being flagged for comment deletion and other people were encouraged to try posting it and their comments were also deleted.

I wanted to copy-paste the comment here but for some reason YouTube makes that difficult on my phone.
I also find it strange. I find the algorithm incredibly good. I did link it with iTunes back in the day, so it started off knowing what I like, and I always Like tracks when I like them. Now I often find myself pressing like on most tracks on Discover Weekly because it's so good at recommending things I'll enjoy, and quite a lot in Daily Mix and Artist Radio too.

This is really interesting. My grandparents were born in near London Bridge around the turn of the 20th century, and their accents were nothing like London/SE accents are now, even my parents (if you consider current London accents to be Thames Estuary / Eastenders / Danny Dyer).

Just typing this and watching that, makes me think, who would be the 60 year mid point for that (1900-2020), and the most obvious London actor I can think of is Bob Hoskins, and his accent was different to what we have now. Recognisable as a London accent, because we're familiar with it, and that generation is still around.
I would also give Cataclysm DDA my warmest recommendations. Such a refreshing game after year's with nethack and DCSS.
Finally a roguelike ditching the fantasy setting for an apocalyptic world.
After ten years or so it's still in very active development and it's a pleasure to watch the github repo for what's new every week.

Some recommendations; play it as an open world game and not a roguelike, aka save cheat whenever you want to. It's a very time-consuming game, so loosing a character does not feel like a lessons learned like it does in nethack and dcss, because you basically loose hours spent on training your characters soft skills
(reading books, practicing skills). To get the gist and get you through the first days please check out the YouTube channel of Vormithrax, he had some amazing tutorials. And if your stuck the official discord is filled with nice people willing to help out.

Last recommendation (bit controversial) is to check out the tileset undeadpeople. It has been removed by the creator due to him putting out some statements not accepted by the community, but you will find mirrors all over reddit, but the tileset is just one noch above the rest imho.

Good luck and watch out for the hulk :)
I reject that premise and think that your mention of that IRS scandal is actually an example of how the IRS has been hobbled in their investigations of the ultra rich, who use BS non-profit schemes to avoid taxation AND use those vehicles to generate more power and lobbying to their advantage.

As an example Koch s were big in that saga. their few tens of millions spent through shady non-profits has generated billions for them from the Trump tax cuts alone. Hell that right wing movement changed the judicial enough so that those once shady hidden politics non-profit schemes became legal.

The IRS used a spreadsheet of keywords to pick out targets for further scrutiny. Both Republican hits like 'tea party' & liberal ones like the at the time liberal 'boogey people' ACORN. [1] Republicans at the time were innovators in those org structures so there were more of them.

Higher ups in Obama admin didn't put out some edict to bureaucrats in the IRS to attack Republicans.

I do agree that IRS and lots of government has too much executive control.

Congress should retake control and attach law to direct IRS to perhaps automatically spend % of budget on .01% earner audits.

or ban 'auto-audit' that contributes to those big unequal IRS stats because they can automatically harass poor people about EITC or child credits.

Also untrue. Random sample testing is a thing.
Java is like C and C++, there are plenty of implementations to chose from.

Each has their own set of strong points regarding JIT, AOT, GC capabilities, which one to select is usually based on the use case.

Unless doing something special, you are pretty safe using a regular OpenJDK distribution.
I've definitely seen this before many times.

Inkjet printers that use ink tanks are more "honest". In fact, such kind of Inkjet printers are fast replacing the cartridge-based ones in my country.

The ink is very inexpensive, you can purchase individual ink bottles (about $3 per bottle, and on average will last about 1000-2000 pages) and not the whole set, and the printers actually were built quite tough.

Sure, they're more expensive than the cartridge-based ones (4-5x the price), but one gains economy of operation + more well-built devices.
I hear they had a decent empire going at some point also. Somebody should let this journalist know.
Everything about this app is about as dystopian and stupid as you’d expect. It’s run by a former Facebook exec who was part of the group that proudly got rich “gamifying” and ruining everyone’s lives with what late-2000s Facebook was obsessed with (which, as we all know, they are now unsuccessfully attempting to scrub from memory). I can’t understand why someone who made millions creating mental cancer decides to double-down on the damage he inflicts on society.

There will be a list of “distinguished” Facebook alumni one day, as a watch list for people who cannot be trusted to use their intelligence and privilege for anything beyond personal gain. Some people never learn.
I decided that I had to work in science or technology when I was 14 after reading his memoirs. (I didn't get into programming until later.) I think many on this site are in the same boat!
They also edit them to something more detailed after a few hours sometimes, slightly devious.
IIRC we had to move to Corretto when using AWS CodeBuild, because AWS dropped support of AdoptOpenJDK in their CodeBuild container images.

So basically we use AWS distro to run tests and build our docker images, and those images use AdoptOpenJDK; which is not ideal, but so far we have been OK.
Nope, it's because of the word "poof"
Previous GIL removal attempts hurts single thread performance and it isn't that scalable, so people are usually by default dismissive.

Most of Python codes depend on subtle details of CPython internal. For example sometimes it is just convenient to assume GIL exists (i.e. simplifies concurrency codes because "you know there are at most one thread running").
They already have this family plan though?
Either you move slow and keep things stable, or you move fast and break things.

> their goal is [...] minimizing the unprofitable thing (song plays).

If that's the case, how do you explain those two features :
- the repeat button
- the "automatically play similar songs" option

In the first case, since I don't know how it works, maybe they have to pay only one time for a song per user listening to it during a period (say a month). But I doubt it.
In the second case, it's Spotify explicitly saying : "here are songs you don't intended to play but that we picked automatically and are playing to you".

If you look at Netflix, sure they have the feature that automatically launch the next episode. Or they try weird stuff like live or play anything... But they also have the "Are you still watching ?" feature, to make sure that they don't display content to an empty room.
Spotify doesn't have that, it can just play songs indefinitely without any human interaction.

So, I don't know.
How does she manage? Any particular techniques you learned from her? :)
Funny how the intercept didn’t care about this in 2018 when Joe Manchin was running for re-election for the senate. Regardless of the merits, this is basically just a “shot across the bow” for doing what his constituents want instead of what the national party wants. But you won’t be hearing about it in 2024 when he runs for re-election and his winning might be the difference between a democrat or republican senate majority
I'm sure they can take that into account.
Italian Software Engineer here.

Yes it seems it's a rebranding and downsizing operation.

The articles have very strong nationalist and arrogant tones masked as pride. Please remember that is the product of some marketing guy trying to attract your attention.

It saddens me to discover that acronym for Alitalia.
I was aware of the FIAT one.
It shows the stereotypes of Italian being good only at good and clothes.
Italy is a country of 60 millions people. There are a LOT of people good and bad at many things.
As an Italian Software Engineer I personally struggle through life because of this. It's a constant battle to fight stereotypes imposed on me by both foreigners and other italians that just think "fuck it, if they think we are only good at that then we'll dress up and give them a show".
Last.FM would have worked for you 17 years ago because it did most of that, until they mismanaged it into obscurity.
it’s very sad. on a somewhat related topic, i think some media tech firms are violating this law

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payola

but indirectly

when an algorithm censors one form of content over another, then it is indirectly supporting the alternative. which is tuned based on biases, those biases pad the pockets of like minded people within their social sphere, their circle of influence.

but the perception is there that this is what everyone wants, so a percentage of people (competition in many cases) gets censored.

if this was like a small corner bar and someone was advertising their business inside someone else’s bar, then yeah i get it, your house, your rules, but censoring someone on a platform that is larger than many nations put together seems dangerous.
Yes and imagine an intense level of stress when your partner asks what kind of movie you want to watch. Because, your brain just cannot process a single new decision.
A chicken and egg situation. Tourism campaigns, of which the branding of national airlines is a cornerstone, is where we get stereotypes.

British airways promotes itself as the stable luxury carrier. Ryanair promotes the "frugal Irishman" image. The asian airlines usually promote their cabin crew's attention to customer service. Even Westjet promotes the "friendly Canadian" stereotype through their various christmas stunts.
Yes, yes, yes and I hope the alternate timeline will start now.

IMO the reason that we have so many ways of doing concurrency in Python (fra asyncio, curio, trio to gevent, multiprocessing etc.) is that it was never properly dealt with.

It has to be built into the language, a feature of the language, like fx. garbage collection. The model of Pony or Erland, where are execution thread is started per core could also have been used in python, instead we got the async/await mess, which almost created a whole new language, where every library has to be rewritten.

It saddens me to think that the ugly cludge that async/await is got added to Python almost without any discussion, whereas the insignificant walrus operator got so much heat that GVR quit.
> Now imagine driving. You see where your line of reasoning does not make sense anymore? Everything we do in life carries risks.

According to that analogy antivaxers and antimaskers are drunk drivers, making things more dangerous for other people through their own stupid decisions.

(Except drunk drivers are considerably lower in number, and not contagious... you can take an analogy too far.)
I'll tell you a secret. Even if they do have a big war chest, they aren't going to go after those targets either. Those targets _write laws_ nowadays, including the _tax laws_.
This could be for multiple reasons - a cache consistency issue, the user could be blocked by that channel, or the comment could contain a channel blocked word.

I'd guess that if the automatic comment approval system isn't immediate then YouTube shows the comment to the poster so they can validate it was submitted and they haven't made typos but other users don't see it - and when the comment is checked (~20s later) and found bad it gets deleted.
I agree, but then it shouldn't be brought up as something relevant to preventing catastrophic climate change.
Who are those "we"? I do not associate myself with YouTube, Facebook, Apple and other censorship giants.
1. Runs Linux.
2. External Display Support - USB-C
3. Fast storage.
4. 1080p screen.
5. Small.
4. Cheap.

I really dislike using Laptops since they tend to be slower, have worse ergonomics, and are more expensive than a 'equivalent' desktop. I just don't 'like' working if I don't have at least 1 large 4K screen and I prefer 2 (and more probably wouldn't hurt).

Since a laptop is necessary sometimes I just want to have a 13" standard Dell XPS that's small enough I'll actually take it places. If I start traveling more (I am already WFH) then I might start wanting something with a larger screen + a decent portable second screen option. Although at that point I'd probably just put the effort into using a VR type screen system.
> What happens if someone's creating a script that will shell out simultaneously to multiple Go programs? Do they all inherit the parent's environment variables?

By default, every process inherits the environment of its parent process. So if you set an environment variable (eg. with the EXPORT command in bash), then every process you launch from the shell will have the same value for the environment variable.

However, you can set environment variables for each command that you execute.

So for example in a shell script you could do something like this:

# set the environment variables value to 4
# valid for all subsequently executed commands
export GOMAXPROCS=4

# run syncthing but limit it to 2 processors
# defining the variable like this it will only affect this command
GOMAXPROCS=2 /usr/local/bin/syncthing

# run some other go program
# the environment var will be set to the value 4 again
/usr/local/bin/other-go-program

The beauty of using environment variables is that they are much more flexible than command line options.

For example, assume I execute a script from someone else, who did not set GOMAXPROCS. Then I could just set the GOMAXPROCS variable and then execute the script. I could change the config without needing to edit the script!

Proof of work is computing. Like any computing, like your home PC or laptop, running an application costs electricity, and perhaps slightly warms its nearby vicinity. A gallon of gas or a battery in a car may have a similar impact. A gallon of gas may have further negative externalities like the destruction of the atmosphere etc.
> What if I cancel my subscription?

The try button seems to take you to a working version of the app, is the intention to make this paid at some point later?

I don't mind paying but I object to those applications that make it appear like they're free and then once you've started using them ask you for payment on the basis you were only on a "premium trial" when you start.
One of those articles where I read and read and think, get to the point already. What a tedious read.
You can "reject" it all you like, the facts are not up for debate: 83% of nonprofits targeted by IRS were Republican "tea party" nonprofits. Whether that was ordered by Obama or just done to please Obama and the DNC is irrelevant. The fact of the matter is, IRS was used as a political cudgel, which is a disgrace and an indelible stain on its already quite frayed reputation. With the rabid ideologues controlling at least two branches of the US government at the moment, there's no doubt whatsoever it'll happen again.
25 page X 10 is a total of just 250 pages, a desktop Inkjet printer (the kind that uses ink tanks, not cartridges) can handle it no sweat, if a bit slower. Probably takes half an hour to complete.

When you hit 100 pages for 20 people though... ;-)

But I agree with the general gist of your post. Desktop personal printers are simply not built for _regular_ high load.
Makes perfect sense :)
