Sure. Are you going to stop using the terms "non-sterilizing vaccine" and "sterilizing vaccine", outside of any publication you may make in a medical journal?

> experience of a vaccine like the MMR vaccine, which is one and done

No, it absolutely isn't!

I have personal experience.

I had to get mumps booster shot in college because of a local outbreak.

https://www.cdc.gov/mumps/vaccination.html points out under "Mumps Outbreaks Still Occur" that "As most people are not routinely exposed to mumps, there is less immunologic boosting" so "During a mumps outbreak, public health authorities might recommend an additional dose of MMR vaccine for people who belong to groups at increased risk for getting mumps."

It also points out that mumps vaccinations require two shots, not "one and done".

People are regularly advised to get a tetanus booster every 10 years. Which reminds me, my last one was 10 years ago.

And some people get yearly flu shots.

Can I like magit if I don’t like emacs?
Very, very cool!

I've set up a dual-GPU system in the past using two nvidia GPUs and whilst I found the trek towards PCI passthrough to other virtual machines rewarding when it finally worked, I also found the arrangement to be inconvenient.

What you've achieved here, seems the ideal. Well done :)

I will either patiently wait for an Arch Linux version of the install, or I'll eventually end up impatient and see if I can rustle up something - an install script is an install script, it should be just a matter (famous last words) of altering the install script/procedures to suit.

Do you have evidence to suport this? (Geniunely curious)

Why do you think that is the case? Just the fact that they are more likely to be part-time or not able to be fully committed into their field while also being a mother does not warrant them enough time/energy/x to achieve those breakthroughs?
And thanks to all that effort the Chinese now likely have all the blueprints. The only reason why they still don't have EUV is because this stuff is difficult to bring up even if you have all the documentation - screw something up even a little, and it's not going to work. But it certainly isn't going to take them 20 years to replicate it.
I was pretty skeptical about magit at first because I know all the basic git commands for my daily workflows by heart and I don't find them to be very difficult or slow to use. But since I am also an Emacs user and everybody kept telling me to try it out I finally forced myself to use it. And I must say it is very easy to pickup and use productively. It is way better than most of the git integration features you get with your typical IDE (like VScode for example) because magit supports most git workflows pretty seamlessly. It integrates itself nicely in Emacs' keyboard driven UI. So now I don't need to drop to a shell anymore to interact with git.

But does it make me much more productive? I don't know.

While developing typically I add some debug code mangled with the actual stuff. So when I am ready to commit I've got to remove that first. I had done this manually in the editor before, now from within magit I can just select the lines I'd like to stage and press "s". Then proceed to commit pressing "c". Finally, by just selecting the remaining lines and hitting "k" ("kill") I get rid of all debug code. That's pretty nice and I will never ever forget to remove debug code again. Similarly, you can manage your git stash with a couple of key strokes.

Branching and merging works well, too. But I don't think magit makes it much easier as you still need to type in branch names. Autocompletion is supported, but git provides this as well.

Merge collisions are still a pain. And for more complicated tasks like interactive rebases, reflog rescues or bisecting I still keep dropping to the shell. I actually like the expliciteness, here, because it prevents me to stupid things in dangerous maneuvers. And "git help" is always there to remind me on all gazillion command line arguments.
I live in europe, and I'm used to standard 40h workweek (and usually not an hour more than that)... but I've also worked (in my younger years) some crazy hours, especially with college lectures+work1+work2.

I don't think the "i'm too tired to have sex" is the problem... I know it's anecdotal, but during that time, the bigger problem was trying to find someone to have sex with (actually going out there and meeting new people). The second problem, with so much work, adding aditional work (a child + extra cost + extra work for childcare + extra time needed) was not a pleasant thought.

The latest roadmap from TSMC now points to 2023 for 3nm. This actually put Intel in the same time frame as TSMC. So incidentally both Intel and TSMC will be on 4nm in 2022, and 3nm in 2023.

Note: Intel 4nm is a Full, new Node while TSMC 4nm is an optimisation of their 5nm.

Of course the roadmap and time table from Intel is often not a reliable indicator and also doesn't tell you whether it is product shipment or if they are only ramping. My guess is that Intel is running as fast as they can to reach those target. That is also not including capacity difference with node from both companies.

I think Intel under Pat Gelsinger is making the same transition as Andy Grove did to during his era.
I don't really see people doing this in the UK anymore. Cars can be bought with a debit card if you have the funds, sometimes a call to the bank is required for verification.

When I've bought 2nd hand kayaks from someone's home, I've been able to transfer the money on my phone through the banking app and they've seen the funds arrive in seconds. Is this not the case in the US?

What's the latest data on this? I had also assumed this was still the case.
Thank you for thinking along, all your points are valid and have been considered, there are fairly obvious drawbacks to doing it this way but simpler options are - alas - not on the table.

This is the bike (image ripped from an ad, not that bike but the exact same model):

http://imgs.advertentiex.nl/upload/Te-koop-prachtige-christi...

So you can see that in the back there are no options other than to either completely change the frame or to go for a single speed and neither is feasible. I could maybe expand the space between the forks in the rear so a wider hub with a motor + cassette would fit but that risks cracking the aluminum frame.

The bike has a rear hub that is geared, so there is no space there and this being a cargo bike means that an after market mid-motor can't be placed (it would run right through the middle of the main spar. That leaves the front wheels for the electric drivetrain. I'm not afraid of slipping or sticking, electric motors tend to be pretty well behaved in situations like this, the difference in speed between inner and outer wheel in a turn will be readily absorbed by the motors and discarded as heat, and they won't be overpowered to the point that they will start turning independently, each motor will run at a leisurely 125 Watts or so. The one situation where that might happen is if one wheel comes off the ground but in normal use that should never happen.

This is the kind of kit that I'm eyeing to do this conversion with:

This is a pretty common thing here in NL and rather than build the whole drive train from parts I'd go for a kit.

Right, so the trend is always to invest in the emerging market category. Steel, oil and railroads were new when they boomed. Financial services was a new new thing when it boomed. Tech is currently booming. Renewables is another one coming in big, so is space, and yeah biotech, Moderna and co, I wouldn't be surprised to see a boom there as well now that people saw the potential.

Those things will corelate, because the 100xers aren't 100x because they can make anything happen, they are 100x because they choose the right battles and have the energy, know how, motivation and connections to deliver on it.

So I think the booming markets and the 100x entrepreneurs will almost always align.
Awesome looking guitar!

I noticed you use the Planet Waves tuners. I love those as well, they're much more practical as they cut the strings for you. I wonder why they don't make them in more traditional colors, or why other manufacturers don't provide similar solutions. Everyone else makes just regular and locking tuners, not the locking-and-cutting tuners.

For a performing amateur musician, the ability to change your string quicker and without having to carry extra tools is certainly beneficial, and people spend a lot of time fretting about much less important details in their guitars.

I do like the current trend in youtube guitar videos talking more about playability, usability and reliability, and doing things like switching jacks or nuts, instead of endless pickup sound comparisons.

I agree that it is a good name and evaluating this on "ML tasks" was novel. However this and subsequent papers did a really poor job in delineating what is novel, from what is well known. Moreover this is a pattern in almost all subsequent papers, where people literally pretend that they were the first to consider parameter gradient computation of controlled differential equations, hybrid dynamical systems, etc., while in fact this has been worked out in full generality since essentially the 60s.

The US banking system is still dog shit by comparison to the UK/EU.

That said, Faster Payments in the UK are not guaranteed to be instant and can take up to 2 hours. Also, some banks will arbitrarily downgrade them back to slow old BACs if it flags up as risky on their systems or if it's someone you haven't sent money to before.

In general I agree it's not a problem though, you're not going to let the buyer take the keys until the money is in your account.

It's a Go channel based quicksort. It sorts a channel of ints using O(n) go routines! Interestingly it doesn't need to know how many ints are in the channel at the start.

Not a practical sort method but fun to see the Go concurrency primitives in use.

You should read more about evolution. I think you misunderstand some of the fundamentals.

Although there are some interesting hereditary environmental epigenetic changes, evolution (as we understand it) is driven by selective pressure.

Your soldier analogy is great because it perfectly describes what evolution doesn't do. We know that an armless veteran is not more likely to have an armless child.

As for the elephants, the way poaching causes evolution is by killing (not maiming) only elephants with tusks.

So in the past, it was an advantage to have tusks. An elephant with tusks was more likely to survive and reproduce.

But with poachers killing elephants with tusks, it has reduced the likelihood so much that it may be better to be an elephant without tusks.

Because tusks/tusklessness seems to be heritable, this combination of circumstances leads to an increase of the ratio of tuskless to tusked elephants.
Magit is unfortunately so slow on Windows that it's unusable. This is a real shame, because the UI is fantastic. I think a better architecture would use libgit2 calls rather than launching multiple git processes for every single magit operation.
I guess I was looking in the wrong places ... or the wrong construction. 20 mm thick sounds like it was only the core with more layers.

> It took humanity thousands of years to come up with calculus.

Depends on how you see it. During most of humanity's existence, we were hunters and gatherers, with simple and small societies - there wasn't much need for advanced math and there was not really a possibility for a society to feed a thinker. Only when complex societies like ancient Greece and Rome were possible thanks to early industrialized farming, there was a possibility for people to do nothing "productive" towards the society itself surviving but instead invest resources into advancing society.

Everything That Went Wrong With Donald Trump’s New Social Network in the First 24 Hours

> Truth Social will be a lot like Twitter, with the primary interface consisting of a feed of short posts from users you follow. However, these posts will be called “truths” instead of “tweets,” and reshares will be known a “retruths.” While the platform wasn’t supposed to have its soft launch until next month, users found a way to access the site and were setting up accounts within hours of the announcement. (One vandal claimed the @donaldjtrump handle and posted a picture of a pig with extremely large testicles.) Truth Social eventually cut off access, though screenshots of the interface taken before then suggest that the platform is basically just a fork of Mastodon, the open-access software that allows users to make spinoff social media networks. Mastodon founder Eugen Rochko has said that he will be seeking legal counsel since Truth Social appears to be breaking his product’s terms of use by not sharing the code or license with the public. Truth Social’s terms further claim that the source code is proprietary, which could also violate Mastodon’s license.

If you're talking to the proxy separately, it's no longer a proxy right? It's as good as part of your infrastructure. As long as you're able to talk to the entity directly, is there a need to allow for something like this in the standard?
Tip of the day: you can have `magit` as a fast and standalone tool by using this script (require emacsclient to be setup properly):

#!/usr/bin/env bash

emacsclient -c --eval "(progn (magit-status) (delete-other-windows))"

This will open the repository under the current path in a maximized magit window.

The only downside I have for now about magit is when using `pre-commit` it can run for long sometimes, so it would be nice to see the progress/output of pre-commit while waiting for the commmit message buffer to appear. If you know a way I'm all ears.

For over 15 years I've been collecting vinyl and turntables. Ready-to-go mass production turntables with entry level cartridges, wobbly tonearms and built in phono stages make records sound worse than any digital format. Clicks, noises, inner groove distortion - some people like these imperfections.
Things do change with a better playback system (turnatable (tonearm), cartridge, phono stage) when it is properly fitted and set up. Building a record playback system and collecting and listening to vinyl records - are not the same things, most people don't care what stylus compliance and tonearm resonant frequency are. Carefully built vinyl systems sound totally different comparing to digital sources and the format disadvantages are much less apparent. I guess it's safe to assume that spending $2.5k+ on a record player isn't that common thing, though.
With today's popular turntables we mainly speak about format sound differences, records don't sound better than CD, they sound different, MP3 sounds different, AAC sounds different. While differences between digital formats are less apparent, difference between digital and analog formats is much more noticeable. Vinyl sound different, handling experience is different, whole 'listening to a record' process is much more involved compared to touching screen for Spotify.

I think we need to put some more effort into existing digital tech, PCM and DSD are great formats, cheap, decent converters are still a problem. Considering latest trends with digital assets, collecting physical items may become thing of a past pretty soon.

If you follow the link he provides to himself, then follow that link to it's cite, then follow that link to the source he's trying to cite you'll see they actually updated their numbers and now show nuclear as behind wind and solar (though obviously still far ahead of gas and especially coal):

https://ourworldindata.org/safest-sources-of-energy

I'm not even sure they ever had solar and wind, around that time it was fashionable to say "nuclear is safer than any other power source" and link to studies that didn't even include renewables. edit, actually confirmed this as the intermediate blog still has the old table screenshoted which shows nuclear in the lead, but only against coal oil gas etc, no renewables other than biomass (some of which is good and some of which is bad, it's a wide category).

But regardless of that, there were a few studies calculated around 2012 that showed solar and wind as slightly worse than nuclear per TWh as they hadn't scaled up and been producing for as long and the deaths are generally front loaded, while the generation is constantly growing and the stat naturally biases against new tech that has a construction phase before generation starts.

I did this a couple of months ago (in the UK) - bought a car and did the bank transfer on my phone, sat in the guy's front room.

However, I did need to borrow his card reader/code generator thing - put my card in, enter the PIN and the amount and then type in the code it generated into my phone to authorise the transfer. Presumably because of the large amount going to a new payee.
Is the launching of processes on Windows so much slower than on Unix-type OSes that it would cause it to be "so slow" for that reason?

Maybe the reason is another? Personally, I once had Magit act real slow at times because git-annex had added some git hook for something that I didn't need. Just removing that hook improved performance massively. Perhaps something similar is happening.

Also, I'm not sure Emacs Lisp can interface directly with C libraries, so using libgit2 might not be an option.
