Exactly! Those initial numbers were based on limited clinical trials because time was not on our side. We needed to get something out fast, so we didn't go through all trial options.

Battlefield had a slightly fresh take on WW1, and addition of new gamemodes, which made it more entertaining for longer. But seeing the cycle of Battlefield following Call of Duty, makes me worry about the future of the lifecycle for said games.
mRNA's mechanism of action is trivially simple. There's a known gene that codes for a known protein, and they create a snippet of mRNA to codify it. It doesn't change your DNA, it's not a virus, it's not able to replicate in any way. There aren't any unknowns waiting to be discovered. The mechanism is fully-understood and easy and safe.

The complications with mRNA vaccines like this have to do with keeping the mRNA intact during delivery and getting it into the cell so the protein gets built. That's the hard part, and the focus of all the patented engineering that differentiates BioNTech and Moderna vaccines. And the delivery mechanism, while complicated, doesn't involve anything genetic; it's a mechanical problem.

Hi,

I made this prototype in a month.

Tailwind CSS + Php 1 index.php + Mysql 1 table.

Crawlers/Scrapers for extracting events have been something interesting for me last years. I spent so much time working on tech to extract them, machine learning, crawlers, scrapers, etc.... Poor results or too much results ... other story.

September I rethinked everything, human+automatic sources, and I got this.

airovic.com
Availabe in USA: San francisco, Los Angeles, NYC and Miami.
And EUROPE: Berlin, London, Madrd, Barcelona.

I'm fucking happy. I just made and completed my proposal for a crowdsourced agenda of things to do. MVP done. In some ways I'm free. (Spend 5 years with other prototypes, I even added bayesian, spotify api, flights and airbnbs ...) I'm happy with this last version, based on an excel of 400 urls, ~40 urls per city recommended by locals.

Btw, Events are not fake!! all real. 5 people working on this curating events, + 78 custom scrapers have got 30k legitimate events. airovic.com/stats.php you see databases.

I would appreciate any feedback.
This is so frustrating when you think about it...
I read the article, I'm still not clear on why it's a problem. I'd have a very big problem if another user, using my machine via x forwarding, could capture my inputs, but that doesn't seem to be the case here? It seems that this is only for applications running on the same display.

So, to be blunt, this 'security feature' breaks a whole hell of a lot of use cases. If wayland wished to go down this route they should have displayed a prompt to the end user 'this application wishes to record the screen, that ok?'. The last time I made this point someone snidely informed me that 'this was not wayland's responsibility'. I'm sorry, if you break my use case you make it your responsibility!
I find it difficult to imagine a system of evolution where useless code is reliably removed.
Because rightly or wrongly, tons of existing Python code implicitly requires on the GIL to function correctly. Especially when you have C extensions that may not be thread-safe.
Pollution (most electricity production is still coal-based), raising electricity prices for everybody else, contributing to an ongoing energy crisis (electricity is going to start being rationed in Kazakhstan).

Electricity is a finite resource.
To quote a comment from Reddit: "I can't wait to never hear about this again."
It doesn't have a GIL because it's using a lot of smaller individual locks. That ends up being much slower in practice.
I don't think it's not considered real work by engineers, but by non-engineer product managers.
How is one supposed to debate with someone who thinks the sun rises in the west? If you can't even process the basic facts about vaccines - they don't reduce spread but reduce risk of complication - that logically make mandates and masks useless (which is now also being proven in real-world data), I mean, there's no point in discussion. You can say the sky is red as many times as you want, that doesn't make it true. Besides the fact that by your logic this is a new ridiculous equilibrium for life, with PERPETUAL quarantines, testing, masks, employer enforcement of personal medical choices, passports to do anything, and more broadly everyone hating each other's guts. Sounds fun!!! Totally worth it!!! Places like Sweden and Florida don't count!!!
Are you more comfortable with the implication that we won't?
API exfiltration is a common technique. One of the downsides of public APIs is that they're usually very enumerable on purpose. This leaks into how we design private APIs as well.

Others could be more traditional, like a dragnet that infiltrates common applications or exploits, then hunts for IAM credentials or a DB server.

Users checking tokens with public endpoints into repositories is also very common.

Also, the term is post-quantum cryptography. I don't think it can be declared quantum-safe or quantum-proof just yet.
It kinda reminds me of HP VEE (which I learned got renamed to Keysight VEE -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keysight_VEE).

Residential rates are not typically subsidized, they are regulated and billed at cost plus. The only thing that can be called a subsidy is a delay in raising costs. When local utilities are required to supply at a fixed price and that fixed price is less then cost + fixed profit margin, then they are losing money. The remedy for this is to ask their regulators to change the fixed price to account for both the higher expected base rate and their losses during prior periods. The utility commissions which regulate them almost always grant such requests. In extreme cases, CA power crisis, this can bankrupt utilities but in simple shifts of the demand curve most utilities have great credit ratings and can borrow to cover opex during the shortfalls.
You can add the 2FA authenticator codes to multiple authenticator programs. I usually add them on to 2 different devices at the same time.
Lest we forget, Call of Duty still tops charts in sales every time due to the popularity among middle and high school students.

I think the OP would agree that it was "early Asimov" but you can't blame the writing on that. The OP was making the point that his writing never improved.

Having said that there were cringeworthy aspects of the first Foundation book that improved over the subsequent books. I recently reread the series and came to the shocking conclusion that he must have been a virgin (or at least not exposed to women) in the first book.

She's very clearly described as the victim of what the article calls "data exploitation". I'm not sure how you could read this article and miss that. I also understand what the consent is referring to, which I've already addressed: she had consented to the sale of the image. And I also already noted that the image is not typically used in showcasing modern compression algorithms.

This. Also, even if aerogel tech improves drastically, there is another, more insidious problem.

Small-molecule gases diffuse through solid matter (search for "helium leak iphone" if you haven't read that fascinating story), so hydrogen will be slowly leaking out of aerogel, much like it does leak from a normal balloon.

Air diffuse back inside at a much, much slower rate - with net effect that pressure inside drops. This will crush/crumple aerogel, with no easy "top it off" option available for normal balloons.

I think you're a little too quick to let the US government off the hook here. It was well established that there would be supply chain issues as early as mid-summer 2020. Part of keeping the population safe and working is keeping the mechanisms for trade in place and working. This includes ensuring ports are cleared, staffed, and operational. It also includes not paying people to stay home. The constant threats of higher taxes and gigantic spending proposals also didn't help. Those costs get priced in at some point.
Thanks. I fixed it now, because my typo made the sentence very confusing.
That depends on what you mean by "just like." Zig does not make sound static guarantees about use-after-free, because those guarantees have other costs that Zig would rather not pay. This means that detecting the problem might requires some dynamic analysis. But that doesn't mean that it's "just like" such analyses in C, because Zig does make guarantees that are fundamentally different from C's. In particular, unless you resort to syntactically delineated constructs -- analogous to unsafe in Rust -- Zig does not have pointer arithmetic or arrays of unknown size. Unlike in C, in (the safe subset of) Zig every pointer is known and every object is known. This means that it's easier to build more precise and more effective mechanisms that detect such errors in Zig than in C.

In other words, if you mean that use-after-free is handled in Zig in a manner that's very different from how it's handled in either Java or Rust and more similar to the general approach of how it's handled by various tools for C, then that's correct. If you mean that that general approach is just as (in)effective in Zig as it is in C, then that is incorrect. Because Zig is fundamentally more precise than C, analyses of Zig, even if they are conceptually similar to those done for C, can be more precise and effective.
Not the above poster, but I also do and like the yesterday/today slack standups (with a proper zoom meeting once every two weeks to review/strategize/etc).

Usually the "yesterday I worked on X, today I will also work on X" for me are a sign that I need to grab a second team member to get a second set of eyes on something.

That is if X is specific enough, of course - but if working on something larger, I think it should always be if the standup message is to have any usefulness at all.

So I'll try to always write something more in way of "Yesterday I was working on X, so I made X_1 and started on X_2, but had problems so I've skipped over to X_3. Today I'll be continuing working on X_2", with the numbered ones being subtasks or subsets of X.

I'd probably do the same on actual spoken standups, but this is a kind of a meeting that could easily be a slack message, so I prefer slack :)
In the US, some things seem designed to sabotage parenting happiness - and kids' well being.

One thing: False messaging about stranger kidnapping risks; it creates unwarranted fear and that profoundly changes parenting.

Kids are generally very safe (per FBI's very diligent stats) on their own. However, LEO and media continually mash common custodial dispute and runaway numbers with super rare stranger kidnappings and present a level of risk that is nearly a lie.

Compounding this is news reporting of distant tragedies as if they occurred in our own community.

Another thing is the extinction of free ranging for kids and the critical life skills (independence, interdependence, problem solving) they learned there. We've replaced free range areas with walls of no trespassing signs and swapped necessary unsupervised time with a constant adult presence.

Elementary age kids need an increasing amount of time w/o adults to learn how to function. We've robbed them of ~all of that and opted to pointlessly exhaust adults instead. Why? Apparently to feed a patently false LEO/Media narrative that kids alone are in immediate danger of harm.

I've had a lot of various stand-up formats. Most are junk. Many are mainly for the PMs and managers at the cost of everyone else.

But my current format for over a year is:

- One day a week about 20 of us get on Zoom, the 6 "group leads" give 1-2 minutes of updates. The director gives big picture updates, chases down any critical issues. Anyone has a chance to raise anything. About 45 minutes long.

- Every day, a "stand-up" channel in Slack, everyone adds 1-4 bullet points of what they're up to, things they're fighting with, etc. Takes about 30 seconds to write, another 30 seconds to skim. About once a week I see an item I need to be more aware of and I follow-up on it directly.

It's... fine? I wouldn't call it great, or "the solution to stand-ups" but for once I'm actually feeling an appropriate balance between spending time and getting value.
This has been a popular defense for several years now. For awhile I too bought into it. But there are real questions about whether it can ever work and won't in fact be vulnerable to attack.

The best evidence for this is that PoS hasn't happened despite years of talk about it.
Yes, that's what I meant. And thank you for the explanation.
Racism is simple to Id: if the decision is based on the perception of race, it’s racism whether positive or negative. Positive racism is : “I see you’re [race] come over here, you get to eat right here”. Negative racism “I see you’re [race] you get to eat over there. Where + and - aren’t value judgements but effect on the recipient.
The last time I used wlroots, via sway, I encountered a bug where I experienced 'multicolored snow' when watching a video in firefox.

This has some meaningful consequences. It makes NSO and any money that has touched NSO poisonous. It's not illegal to touch, but few banks will want to work with you.

> I already have an rtx gpu. It nets about 8$ of eth a day. Uses 250w. So that's around 1$ of power a day. And enough wattage to heat my office. So I can get paid to keep my room at a nice temperature. This is why I mine now

Unless your office is the size of a closet, that doesn't sound like it's enough to provide all of its heating needs (at least according to the formula of the website I linked).

It's certainly practical to provide to exploit heat generated by computers to partially heat a space, but I don't think it's practical to use silicon as the main heat source.

People have already mentioned wlroots as a starting point, but there is a less opinionated and more compatible (NVIDIA-ready) library that I’m really quite fond of called Mir: https://github.com/MirServer/mir

One thing to note, Wayland, unlike X, does not support server side decorations yet, so compositor’s responsibilities are mostly just placing windows.
That's actually not the whole point of a backup in this context. It's important to remember that the Backblaze Personal Backup service is essentially an emergency extra copy, not a data archive. Once the client backs up a file (or more accurately a revision of a file), it checks every 30 days that the file still exists locally. If it does not, then it will be deleted from the cloud backup.

For example if you plug in an external harddrive and back it up with Backblaze, if you don't plug it in at least once every 30 days, then its cloud copy is deleted. So no, the intention of Backblaze is not to keep your offline machine from several years ago securely backed up.

That being said, you can pay for unlimited revisions which just stores your data in b2 and you pay per month on the extra storage. In that case then yes I would expect the data from years ago to still be present. But that's a recent addition, and not what the OP was using.
"This often involves the settlers dispossessing indigenous inhabitants, or instituting legal and other structures which systematically disadvantage them"

The Cholas did not do any of these. They only wanted to stop piracy and extortion which was making trade more risky. This was overall helpful to the economy of the whole region.

I was into Google Wave robots development at that time and I had trouble seeing how this could scale. There was a ton of data sent to developer's App Engine instance for every edit in a conversation.

It also was a privacy nightmare. IMO it was just a test from Google to see how reliably this would work, I doubt they had the intention to let it run as a product.

But I really loved it.
No, it's not. Have you tried crypto projects? Scams and rug pulls are rampart. It's a wild west, and really not a good way if you are trying to invest in anything that's not Bitcoin or Ethereum.
In my opinion, it's best to adopt industry practices for home life here. Schofield's 2nd Law of computing comes to mind: if your data doesn't exist in two places, then it doesn't exist anywhere.

Offloading reliable backups to companies seems reasonable. It's a lot more money than archiving to physical media, but it's also a lot more reliable. NAS systems also make it easy to have reliable, hot on-site data that keeps a copy of the data backed up to a cloud service. Many of these cloud backup services are also zero-trust.
Is this like Rmarkdown for Julia?
'we might achieve heard immunity with a smaller vaccinated percentage.'

It is crossing back and forth between humans and animals such as cats and deer. Therefore, there can never be herd immunity because it mutates and crosses back to humans. The possibility of herd immunity is not fact based. Some would call the continued presumption of a possible herd immunity to be anti-science, as it can not work.
I should point out that FIDO2 allows sites to require that visitors use a device from a specific whitelist of devices.[0] Google has already tightened the requirements by mandating 2FA, so don't be surprised when they start blocking "insecure" factors like shell scripts.

It probably wouldn't go down well if Google required an Android device to provide the second factor, but I could definitely see them requiring a device which does biometric verification of the user. That's a pretty good way of connecting online activity to a specific human (assuming the attacker can gain physical access to your authentication device, and has a model of your fingerprint/face, which governments increasingly do have).
