Here is a public health official (Surgeon General of the United States) saying quite as much as OP was saying:

Seriously people- STOP BUYING MASKS!

They are NOT effective in preventing general public from catching #Coronavirus, but if healthcare providers can't get them to care for sick patients, it puts them and our community at risk!

> There is little doubt they know what they're doing. The bigger question is whether it's in your best interest.

They knew what they were doing. But they did not know what they were doing. By not being honest and showing leadership, by politicizing science into scientism, by covering their asses for not buying enough PPE for the medics and soldiers, they heavily reduced trust in public institutions, and had to deal with the PR backlash of reversing an official stance mid-Pandemic, while whining about lab-leak "disinformation". Definitely not in our best interest.

Same general was made aware by email (FOIA released) two weeks before taking to Twitter to complain about people wearing masks in an airplane, and that the real risk is the flu. Probably did not read it. The ones who did, got sidetracked by Trump, and warned their friends to wear masks and avoid cities, days before even notifying the public of the "potential" for community spread... but let's not assume evil, where no-skin-in-the-game suffices (who ever got real consequences for wrong or dumb stuff on pandemics, before 2020? You could grow solely through Powerpoints and grants and Nature articles.
I’ve mostly decided to take normal precautions and not to live in fear. I’ve also decided to wait for more information before getting vaccinated. I work from home and have little risk of contracting the disease. I’m taking a break on social gatherings and travel for a few years and then I’ll see what I do.

No longer true.

> All the tools require me to do so much bullshit to get them to even compile

Tooling has changed quite a bit. Especially with tools like ViteJS. You don't need to configure practically anything and get a project off the ground with develop/build times in milliseconds. I am happy that it is moving in the right direction. This churn was required so the industry could figure out what the pain points really are.
You are missing something. You linked to the article that was accepted. The author mentions that his previous article for December 2018 saying that life for minorities is the best it’s ever been, and the editor required him to revise one article prior that that challenged some views on child sexual abuse. I’m sure there was some energetic discussion between them and he didn’t just quietly take the editor’s notes.
Worst: I’ve seen people biking in parks with a mask on, but no helmet.
Get 20x the staffing and see if these questions resolve themselves. It's not a challenge to hire more than 10 people, and training time is going to be significantly less than 55 years.

This library can be dropped into the headers of a html file to be used, rather than a compile step via Create React App. Create React App is likely one of the issues.
On a similar note, if I’m not mistaken, Monzo stores customer passwords (?)/keys used to access their bank information from other bank accounts (through monzo plus?).

I wonder if Monzo has done a similar deep dive into how they structure their architecture/security practices to protect against the threat of this information+encryption keys being stolen.
It’s OK to be completely wrong, but you should reflect on why.
This was particularly maddening because, technically, they were right about it not being "airborne". By definition it wasn't "airborne". Unfortunately the definition of "airborne" was completely nonsensical.
"Airborne" required the droplets to be below a certain size, when that clearly had nothing to do with whether or not it travelled long distances through the air. It took a lot of frustrating work by scientists who knew what the hell they were talking about to convince the high ranking officials to stop killing people.
Or … they could contribute to the OpenSSL project. Didn’t we find out a few years ago that the project was underfunded and d very few maintainers. Seems like they could benefit from help and licensing aside could have a better chance getting it working 100% with apk and alpine.
Things that are one step for you may be way more than one step for others. I want to avoid complication whenever possible. When I need to write JavaScript, I just want to write JavaScript instead of doing so much bullshit to get it to fit into Nix or `go build` or whatever.

`create-react-app` is great for other people, but other people have different constraints and you cannot expect your experiences to be universally understood and accepted as fact.
Don't get me wrong. I'm happy to see type declaration support in Ruby and have sorely missed it working on long-lived Rails codebases. But it is pretty funny that after years of rah-rah about how static typing was a pointless barrier to productivity, all the "duck-typing" languages have eventually added it after all.
Fragment issues aside, the kind of stuff I'm thinking about is somewhat like homomorphic encryption at a genetic/biochemistry level to side step regulations.
A lot of effort, but besides the nostalgia effect I don't see how anyone could take something like this seriously for everyday use. After using a multitude of window managers on Linux, it just doesn't make much sense to me to go backwards rather than forwards.

This is silly. We don’t need fewer time zones, we need more of them: one for each major metro. It’s not 1870 anymore. Time should jump by a few seconds every night at 3 a.m. so that sunrise is always at seven a.m.—no daylight savings nonsense. Humans would once again wake with the dawn, the way nature intended, which would be a boon to health and mental well-being. If you need to know the time in some other area, just ask Siri, Google, or Alexa.

"LookingGlass is an imaginary-web (𝑖web) browser. It allows lets you visit websites that do not exist concretely, and also also allows you to treat any text as having hyperlinks."

Sounds neat! Your webpages could use a thorough review though as there are a few errors in the text. Allows/lets and also/also here in the first paragraph.
Congress passes all sorts of laws that need enforcement or implementation, yet the agencies are not staffed to enforce/implement them accordingly. Still, we clammer for more laws to "fix" things, even when the current ones are impossible to handle.
You can get away with that if you're writing something for immediate delivery, though I think it leads to a lot of not-my-problem thinking in teams that have to scale. On the other hand, I write a lot of libraries, both for internal and external consumption, and there are a lot of operations, in that context, where you won't get a `NoMethodError`--serialization, for example. You can happily serialize an integer if it's passed instead of a string. That doesn't mean it makes sense, or whatever is consuming it is going to be able to make heads or tails of it, and having to run code in order to know whether you've made trivial mistakes is shitty and demoralizing to an end user when they have to divine what a `NoMethodError` means when it's thrown deep inside of a library.

It can also then create security issues around untrusted input; you should be sanitizing at module boundaries any time something might be sensibly used with rando input, IMO, rather than relying on web developers who may or may not be competent enough to duplicate other consumers' effort to do it.

Having to do less work to enforce sanity at module boundaries, and having it tied in with the type system when you do have to do it, is a powerful force-multiplier. For example: I use `runtypes` to create validators in TypeScript when I must handle untrusted input and it's smart enough to take the validator I specify and create a type of the same shape for use at compile-time, so users who aren't dealing with untrusted input just have the nice computer cross the T's and dot the I's for them.
The freedom patriot trolls were spreading masks designs before they committed into increasing the pandemics levels.

That's the most difficult thing to accept. Those people were just contrarians, "freedom" (however stupid one may think their concept of it is) or "truth" were irrelevant.
The key is they're _retroreflective_.

From this paper:

> Specifically, the hiddencamera embedded in the object reflects the incoming laser pulses at a higher intensity than its surroundings due to an effect called lens-sensor retro-reflection. This occurs when almost all light energy
impacting an object is reflected directly back to the source (see Section 2.2). These unexpectedly high-intensity reflections from hidden cameras cause certain regions of the ToF sensor to be “saturated” and appear as black pixels. LAPD processes these saturated areas to automatically identify the hidden camera and its location and displays it on the user’s smartphone screen.
Yeah, political dissidents don't dissapear - yet, I'll give you that. That's mostly because the system is rigged so that they don't have much impact anyway, they're organically lost in the noise.

In times where there's more fear about dissidents, you get McCarthyism, blacklists, and people fired from their jobs, Hoover's FBI blackmailing politicians and journalists, and so on. And even in more benign times, from MLK to SDS members, and from human rights activists to Kent State students, had taps on them, police records in the tens of thousands of pages, intimidation, and attempts to frame them with drugs, snitches and other BS. Heck, even John Lennon, a harmless famous pop culture figure if I ever saw one, had FBI records the size of a small library.

And this goes all the way to modern OWS members, environmental and political activists, black rights activists, character-assasinated journalists (from Garry Webb to Greenwald), and so on.

And if we extend it to the "but they deserve it, no?", war on terror, I don't see much of a difference between a state with black sites, extra-judicial drone killings, and off-shore off-due-process camps, with people exposing state crimes like Manning in prison and Snowden in exile...
Probably they got sick of having to read a function body (and maybe a couple levels of indirection from there) to figure out what the hell a method returns while doing maintenance programming on a hoary old Ruby codebase.

> I am free to license the whole thing to anyone as GPL.

This is what you’re getting wrong. You can “distribute GPL software that includes BSD components” but this is a misstatement of what actually happens. You are distributing your own software as GPL code and at the same time distributing the BSD components. The license to those components (or their source code) does not change. You absolutely can’t blanket apply the GPL to the whole thing.

> This does not "change" the licensing of the original component - but I am not providing the original component.

You absolutely are. If I ship a book full of Sci Fi stories I wrote, and happen to include some classic Philip K Dick stories, I have absolutely included the original. The fact that I wrapped it in my own work changes nothing.
I care about the issues I care about, not the issues people tell me I should care about. Anybody who has a problem with that should ask whether I should have a problem with them caring about their issues.

People just assume that their issues are the right issues, and everybody else who doesn't care about them is evil, blind, or lazy. That's... pretty arrogant, actually. It's good to have people who care about some of the other issues, too.

A, the old, "Everybody that disagrees with my obvious truth must be a paid shill (or idiotic contrarian)" argument.
It’s all about what you’re measuring… Ebola is less dangerous than the Flu in terms of deaths per year, but it’s disingenuous to measure it that way, and that’s what I think is frustrating people in this thread about the comparison to the Flu.

But I am with you - I think this will settle in at some point, and it will be as back to “normal” as we can, with just some people dying of COVID instead of Flu or Pneumonia or whatever would have eventually taken them before.

The vast majority of people don’t want to be super-spreaders. No one thinks they are actually being a super-spreader, but COVID presents as either asymptomatic or as mild allergies for a portion of the population. Which makes it really hard to wrap one’s head around and a wicked problem from a public health standpoint - “It’s not so bad it’s like a mild cold - why should I change my life for that?” or “Wait, you mean my slight cough can end up killing the people I might infect if I go out tonight? But to me it just feels like seasonal allergies. It’s probably not covid”. Ideally the vaccinations will reduce the number of people who die from a mildly symptomatic person going out by some factor of x. Because we can’t have everyone with seasonal allergies shelter in place forever.

It’s impossible to determine how many people will die from the infection that a mildly symptomatic person has if they go to the mall. In aggregate, it’s not zero (otherwise the pandemic would run its course and not be a problem). Sure, even if it’s a 1% chance someone with mild symptoms transmits COVID if they go to a busy shopping mall, that person has a 1% chance of death. But then they may spread it. So maybe it eventually results in .01, 0.1, 1, or 10 people dying per mildly symptomatic person going shopping? There are so many variables it’s nearly impossible to model, and every variable is now a political issue (contagiousness, are deaths really caused by COVID, vaccination rate, masking and distancing). And if the virus mutates and becomes the next more contagious variant in that person, then it could be hundreds of thousands of people.

But at some point, we have to say “OK - can’t test everyone, we have enough vaccinated people to be good, and this is reality - we need to accept a 0.01 “death factor” for this disease when a mildly symptomatic person participates in society. And I do think (or hope) that eventually that factor will line up more closely with the Flu - or ends up better than the flu’s factor (which is non-zero, but it’s a fact of life so we just keep it moving through Flu season).

To be fair, we don’t know if the population of people at the mall would die at the same rate as what COVID is doing overall with the population.
I'm definitely not saying we'll have a colony by 2050.

I just think 80 years is a massive amount of time and we'll have feet on Mars by then, which is what my comment was specifically referencing.
> Everything FDA should be presumed public.

Naively, it seems to me that a regulator requires trade secrets to be disclosed to it in order to do its job well.
Look them up on Amazon and then buy directly from the publisher, it’s usually significantly cheaper.
Lowering the density of surface co2 could result in a reduction of the cognitive impairment caused by the already-increased co2 levels. It would also mean combustible fuels of all sorts would burn more efficiently.

Even just interstate full self-driving (if it were really full, i.e. no supervision) would be a big win for a lot of people. I live about an hour from a major city. I could do most of the drive on interstates (and probably 75% on non-urban roads). And that would be a huge win relative to driving myself.

For actual long distance mostly interstate drives? A huge win. While there's been some focus on this at specific car manufacturers, probably more interesting overall than the urbanite who wants a ride home from the bar.
> No longer true.

If this is the case, I admit I fucked up and will go correct the post with an addendum.

> Tooling has changed quite a bit.

I just wanna pull in a JS file from `go build` via `go:embed` and have it work lol. I'm not doing rocket science here, I just want thing to go. If it is not less effort than putting static files into a binary then I'm sorry but you've lost me.
A, the "it's OK when it happens to the bad people, especially on my opposite side of the potitical spectrum" argument.

"Trump conspiracy theories": Bad.

"WMDs, video with prostitutes in Russia, and the Steele Dossieur": Good.

(plus, we'll self-critique ourselves, several years down the line, when it doesn't matter anymore, e.g. after the war was declared, the elections over, etc., so that makes us legit).
How to Build a 360 Customer View
When it comes to code, I'm fairly certain "correctness" is in fact an irrefutable advantage.

The argument has always been whether or not the price of that correctness is too high.

But at this point if you're using a modern IDE / code editor (e.g. VSCode), it's actually easier to write statically typed code because the inference / auto-completion / etc is so much better when you do.

At least with TypeScript in VSCode.
To be clear, I don't approve of these "cancellations".

Public universities are not well-protected in the United States from conservatives seeking to defund programs with which they disagree. One might be well-protected against being fired directly for saying something controversial, but if your whole department is closed, you can be gotten rid of, even with tenure.

https://www.boisestatepublicradio.org/education/2021-04-07/l...

There's an echo chamber out there that amplifies the notion that there is some sort of epidemic of "woke cancellations" and critical race theory etc. - this is heavily emphasized by conservative media. There's plenty of ridiculous behavior by students - e.g. at Reed College - which I am aware of a massive amount of left-on-left cancellation - someone I know had their career upended by the unlimited claims of the rather stereotypically woke students there. But stupidity at places like Evergreen and Reed will beget endless think pieces and have left cancellation magnified endlessly.

Meanwhile, conservatives' own role in cancellation is minimized to the point of ridiculousness: so Bari Weiss can straight-facedly claim to be a fan of academic freedom.

There's a quieter, but considerably more effective, campaign to defund entire departments among conservatives - the model is a narrow "university as career prep". This means getting rid of the humanities and social sciences in favour of business/law/engineering/CS (good for us, I guess?).

In Australia, the conservative governments have been fairly unabashed in raising the cost of a humanities degree (paid for via our "HECS" scheme) in a way that seems pretty much
Amazingly, this gets considerably less press in the echo chamber than some jackass left students acting like jackasses. I wonder why...

I'll agree with you that most of the noisiest and embarrassing cancellations are left-on-right or left-on-left, but this a narrow slice of "actions taken against academics", and their noisiness is not indicative of their effectiveness. Some of these cancellations are simply part of right-wing grift: schedule a talk from someone with credentials designed to enraged the "woke left" somewhere on their home turf, then enjoy the newfound credibility when you get cancelled and get to be a Free Speech Martyr.
I think people remembering to test all the typing-related corner cases is never going to come close to being as effective as something enforced by static checking -- and even if it did, it seems like I've lost all the time I saved and then some, if that's the price of not having to write the declarations.
I am much too young to remember her (Nicks) reviews, her popularity, most of it, was before I was born.

But I find it interesting that two of the people you highlighted as having no talent are known for being songwriters as much as performers, or actors as much as dancers. In any case Nicks songwriting talents helped propel the groups success, and her vocal abilities were a pivotal component of their sound, and quite arguably a driver of their success.

Incidentally, most great male dancers are shorter, its an aid in becoming great at dance. Both Kelly and Astaire were under 6', 5'7 and 5'9 respectively - yet both were considered handsome men by the standards of their time, in part yes, because of movie magic.

And yes, I grew up near Los Angeles, when Angelia Jolie steps out to Starbucks, she while pretty, does not look like a great actress of the screen, she looks like a nice looking woman stepping out for coffee.

You're talking like that's rare and not something people constantly do when writing tests in Ruby.

Your account has been rate limited. At some point, you did something wrong, and noone in administration could even be bothered to warn or tell you about it. That cryptic error message is what gets shown to you instead of anything descriptive. The only way to get it lifted is to email them and pinky promise never again to do the thing they didn't tell you you did in the first place. See this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29024255
I don't understand this criticism. Which other language lets you get away without compilation or build of some kind? Every language I have used has some form of build or compilation step before running the program. Unless you are building absolutely trivial programs like a "Hello World" you have to do some amount of build/compilation/orchestration (whatever you may want to call it).
I think it's less funny and more an endorsement of how good tooling has gotten over the last few years. Intellisense et al. have changed the game so that you can actually be more productive from the start with statically typed languages because the inference (and UX/DX to utilize those inferences) is so much better than with dynamic/duck typing.
I really don't think so. The point I was trying to make was, it is the court who will tell the government what is a reasonable time period to produce the data and how much is a reasonable amount of money to spend. For the purposes of the court case, what congress has appropriated is meaningless if the court decides that the government is dragging its feet (which it clearly is).
Thank you! I have made the corrections. It's still fresh!
Or in this case, make companies submitting to the FDA file a sanitized version of the report along with the full one.
