Good testing from Phoronix, as usual. I do wish they’d focus more on practical benchmarks up front like kernel compiling instead of the more synthetic or obscure benchmarks like mining Monero.

It's interesting to see the i5-12600K beating the AMD Ryzen 5800X in both performance and power consumption in the benchmark on page 2: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=intel-12... .

The i5-12600K also leads in many of the performance-per-watt tests on page 12: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=intel-12...

Also interesting to see that they used a mid-tier air cooler with 92mm fans and it was fine:

> The Alder Lake processors were being tested with a Noctua NH-U9S heatsink with dual fan configuration while using the Noctua NM-i17xx-MP78 mounting kit. The Noctua U9S was also used for cooling the other processors under test. With the i9-12900K pulling close to a 200 Watt average during this demanding benchmark, the average core temperature on air cooling was 81 degrees with a peak of 98 degrees. The Core i5 12600K saw a 63 degree average and peak of 72 degrees during this NAMD run.

That 92mm Noctua cooler is good, but it performs significantly worse than the much larger 140mm fan, dual-tower coolers like the NH-D15 that enthusiasts will likely be using. Yet it worked just fine.

The CPU consumes a lot of power, but it’s not as big of a deal as many people make it out to be. If power consumption is a concern you could get the i5 version for a lower power consumption and thermals. It still performs very well and is a good value.
No, that has nowhere near the same efficacy.
Centralized control always has an information problem. The people at the edges know what is going on but can’t communicate that up to the people in charge without overwhelming them. This is where market economies shine, the people near the edges make the decisions which avoids the communication bottleneck.
Researchers in pharma are working extremely hard and almost always in good faith. I know this is probably tongue-in-cheek but it's not true.
Do you have a source for R0 being _absolutely equal_ in vaccinated vs unvaccinated?
Genuine question: is it necessary to get vaxxed if - all else held the same - the cost is not significantly higher for the antiviral? Wouldn't that cut the risk down so significantly that we can safely say, "Vaccinate if you're at-risk for your own protection, and have negligible risk otherwise"? This changes the entire risk calculation.
the info you give them allows them to make more money off you or close faster.
Brit here. When I was young whistling kettles were common - partly because they didn't have an auto-off-capability . If you ignored the whistle they boiled themselves dry and the room filled with steam.

The same antivaxxers who ”refuse to take experiemental drugs from big pharma Pfizer” will gobble this pill down no questions asked.

Being scared of vaccines should be considered the same thing as having a fear of dentists. Or pets hating going to the vet.

Issues of proprietary codes/services aside, tools like Mathematica and WolframAlpha are great for solving actual problems.

IMHO, a big problem with math education in general is that it focuses on formalisms and equations first while leaving the big picture as just an addendum. That's not so great for those having a hard time keeping motivated without seeing a real life application that is relevant to them.
If everyone was vaccinated it would make a big difference.
What a shame! In my opinion publicly accessible API is simply public. The can attempt to block access from "un-approved" clients server-side but that's it. It is like saying my website is accessible only from Firefox and it is illegal to access it from Chrome or Safari.
You've put one of my biggest frustrations into words very well. Someone trying to learn about serverless architecture is immediately going to run into the serverless framework which will often have nothing to do with what they're trying to accomplish.

Or trying to learn about the CLI (Command Line Interface or Common Language Infrastructure)

A group is trying to propose a standardized language for querying graph databases, ala SQL. They decided to call it Graph Query Language. This has nothing to do with the GQL spec, which itself has nothing to do with graph databases.

The biggest obstacles in this field really feel self erected sometimes.
I don't think either of those sources justifies "does little to prevent spread." The language used in them is considerably more hedged, eg:

"But growing evidence suggests that, with the Delta variant, fully vaccinated people can still transmit the virus."

And this:

"Unfortunately, the vaccine’s beneficial effect on Delta transmission waned to almost negligible levels over time. In people infected 2 weeks after receiving the vaccine developed by the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca, both in the UK, the chance that an unvaccinated close contact would test positive was 57%, but 3 months later, that chance rose to 67%. The latter figure is on par with the likelihood that an unvaccinated person will spread the virus."

Is also not super relevant— what most people want to know is not whether a breakthrough infection is capable of spreading it, but whether you're more likely to get a breakthrough infection. I think most vaccinated people (which is most people in rich countries now) care much more about the unvaccinated -> vaccinated transmission and the vaccinated -> vaccinated transmission than they do about vaccinated -> unvaccinated.
BC calc in high school, I probably leaned on Mathematica a little too much, but mostly to check my work. Once, I got stumped on an integral and what Mathematica churned out wasn't even close (this was '94). Got a nice little note about that in the margin from my teacher. 0 points. Might still be some Mathematica pitfalls for teachable moments.
Next.js has `next export` which generates a client-side only bundle. It's really neat, as it saves you a lot of manual setting up and maintenance of configuration files, assuming your app fits in the boundaries of Next.js's use cases - which most do.

That it's unethical to continue giving half the participants a placebo makes sense.

I am curious though: do they ever continue with the trial, with the patients on the actual drug? Might that be useful for monitoring rare-ish side effects, even if the drug is highly effective?
The vast majority of conflicts were won with pre-modern weapons, but despite that overwhelming statistic, if I had to fight I'd prefer a rifle and modern armour.

Maybe historical data alone without other context isn't the best way to predict the future -- unless you're trying to make it look like the past. IMO much of the open-source world appears to function entirely without "some form of coercion"...
In my college classes either calculators were permitted (physics and chemistry tests) or were irrelevant (upper division mathematics).

When I taught high school in the 00s, I had to impose rules about what sort of calculators were permitted to avoid cheating, especially as devices which could be used for communication like network-connected palm pilots were available.¹ I also wanted to have the kids avoid buying a $99 TI-89 when a much cheaper calculator was sufficient for the work they were doing.

People like to parrot this but I've literally never had a breaking change from an upgrade in ~5-6 years of Arch usage. At least, if I did, it didn't take more than a couple minutes to fix, because I honestly don't remember having issues.

On the other hand doing a dist-upgrade on Ubuntu has burned me more than once. I fear having to do it on one of my home servers, and should really get off of it.

I'd argue that updating more often is more safe, since anything that goes wrong will be incremental and likely easier to deal with if it does. (Not appropriate for a production server though, you don't want things to change on that unless it's deliberate and likely infrequent)
Yeah it's not really researchers that I'm worried about, it's their bosses.

Unfortunately, it's expensive. The cost of R&D to bring a new drug to market is around $1 billion, and this doesn't include the cost of marketing (though it does include the cost of drugs that fail the approval process)(see https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2762311). At these numbers, it's hard to raise the money unless you think the drug is gonna be profitable.

It took me about six months to recover from Covid post infection. I got it in the early weeks of the pandemic; it took from around mid April to October of 2020 to get back to normal. I've felt fine since. I don't know what exactly they're calling long Covid these days, but the parent comment is pretty obviously ignorant.
Imagine both the vaccine and the drug offer the same protection, and both come with a risk of 0.00001 that you will die from taking it.

Considering not everyone who gets infected gets symptoms, would it be illogical to not take the vaccine, just in case you get infected and get symptoms, but to take the drug once you do get infected and get symptoms?
I would not generalize things like that because that competence is very much limited to very specific competencies and widely varies between the departments/Services. In some ways it's not that different to how it varies in the civilian world, even though it is also very much different. Like I tell people, in many ways, especially the US military is essentially a whole different dimension/universe from the civilian sector, a whole different world and civilization in many different ways.

How much, exactly?

Plausible, but your sources don't appear to support that, other than the claim from Mr. Pollard. Is there anything I'm missing?
Stop spreading disinformation. This has gone through studies showing significant positive benefits. Ivermectin has small studies with dubious methodology showing possible effects and larger studies with better methodology showing no benefit, along with substantial side-effects.

Why would knowing Haskell be an advantage in the task of ensuring safety in Rust? It's for sure worthwhile to know many languages, but I don't know why knowing Haskell is considered a badge of honour. It's just another language. For ensuring safety of Rust, knowledge of type theory and Rust sounds like should be enough.

Tangentially, Haskell itself is unsound. It's also a messy kitchen-sink language in practice, giving me C++ vibes (yes, a bit ironic in the context of Rust, but still true).

As for productivity, the number of widely-used programs written in Haskell does not convince me. Unless we're talking about languages whose purpose is implementing compilers.
Researchers need funding.

The problem with "Big Pharma" is generally not with the intentions or capabilities of the researchers - it's with the funding.
And how are we to be definitively sure that bounty leads to the arrest of the true culprits? It is easy to manufacture a fake digital trail and some very large companies have gained famy (or infamy) for attestations that they later backtracked under oath during congressional testimony.

While a vaccine is not 100% effective in preventing the spread of new cases it is at least somewhat effective.
I think it's related to wealth inequality. Social Security only taxes the first ~$150k you make in a year. If a million dollars is redirected from the poor to the rich, we lose Social Security income.

In theory, that decreases the Social Security we have to pay out, but in reality, that would mean letting those people die when they get old, so we'll pay for it one way or another.

Plus, you know, people not having kids. Social Security isn't pre-funded, so it kind of depends on the labor force growing indefinitely. That was a terrible idea, but I can't see any way to fix it now.
A macbook pro used to start at $1,999 back in 2007. Which is over $2,600 in today money.
It would be somewhat ironic if antivaxxers latch onto this drug, because it actually has a possibility of turning out to have bad side effects that will only show up much later (increased rates of cancer), which is a major reason that is given for people not wanting to get vaccinated.

Edit: Actually I was confusing this with molnupiravir; this drug is presumably perfectly safe.

> No, you may not in this case :) That is why people keep emphasising the way in which the data was published. This is Sweden, not the US.

Here is the relevant paragraph:

"För dataintrång döms den som olovligen bereder sig tillgång till en uppgift som är avsedd för automatisk behandling eller olovligen ändrar, utplånar, blockerar eller i register för in sådan uppgift"

The requisites are: "olovligen", "bereder sig tillgång till", and "uppgift som är avsedd för automatisk behandling". Christian's app full fills the requisites.

API means "Application Programming Interface" and if you think the city created or intended to create such a thing you don't know what an API is.

> If you cannot reasonably be said to have circumvented any technical measures to secure the data (cryptographic keys, some sort of login, IP range blocks, etc) it is not a breach.

You have no idea what you are talking about. There are several precedents that show that circumventing technical measures is not required for data breach to have occurred.
Soo, kinda like for a vaccine?

(And to clarify what I am saying, even though the vaccine does prevent death, there is still considerable push back. Not sure why it will be different for this drug)
Sounds like the consequence of not taking it is a 0.5% chance of death, so probably not a lot of running for those who understand COVID death rates.
While it's true that it's a Node framework, NextJS can totally function like a client-side React framework. NextJS just bakes a lot of basic and common functionality such as routing, built-in support for CSS modules, as well as optimizations (it's not premature if it's baked in already).

The server-side mostly just takes place if you utilize the following:
- Built-in API
- Server-side Rendering

I'd go with a Pixel phone. Samsung phones are great too but a bit of extra software you probably don't need that takes up space.

Any Android phone is 'mostly open' in the sense you can sideload apps super easily. Google apps are functional. There's some 'truly open' options out there but they're typically expensive for the specs and the included apps are less useful than Google apps.
> I still enjoy doing a pencil and paper derivation for fun sometimes, but mostly I do math at a computer. The world does math in Excel.

Doing mathematics on a computer is pretty darn tricky. It's not impossible but tools like Mathematica tend to lack the flexibility that pen and paper grant you.

Of course computers are better at computation, but I don't think that counts as 'doing math'. That would be like saying a loudspeaker composes music.
Then they’ll just spoof it like they do now. I’ll never happen. Fuchsia might change it by being a different OS though.

The pinephone will never be more than a Linux enthusiast or developer device who doesn’t need their phone to properly function. It’s just a developer’s test device that will eventually make a version of mobile GNU/Linux that works better on newest more powerful formerly android devices (probably Qualcomm) that get mainline support in kernel.

The type of person in the future who will buy a $150 phone that was underpowered at launch in 2014 or one that wants a $400 720p LCD phone with a stronger 2018 chip that runs mobile Linux is a niche even now.

This is not true for all hardware configurations or true for all packages combination(including weird AUR ones) in the world. For sure if we Google if this really happens in the real world you will see that indeed update break things.

Also keeping up with upstream does not mean you only get the new features but also the new bugs, especially if you were using GNOME3 a fee years back at each new GNOME release the forums and reddit was filled with new memory leaks issue, new plugin/extension breakage issues and even GNOME not starting up.

They are Navy, they can't be scared to go somewhere because they have no charts. Also this might have been on Chinese territory so maybe that is a reason for missing charts. Or maybe they had some mission that required them to go there.

But that this doesn't mean there couldn't be precautions. I expect there is some procedure to use when running in those conditions. Knowing Navy, they have a procedure for everything. They can't be mapping ocean bottom by crashing nuclear subs into it until they have enough data points to build an accurate map.

One of the axed people is a sonar guy. This suggests to me (keeping in mind I have no knowledge of submarine operations) that people responsible for the sonar were probably not doing what they should be doing. So maybe there is a procedure to use sonar to help them avoid obstacles. I don't know how this exactly works in an enemy territory.
FWIW I've had this work out of the box for several years. Could be a case-by-case thing, but I've only ever had to configure it to my preferences rather than surprise-discover that it didn't work.
