This doesn't mean the WHO "agrees". A poster explained this above:
"
That is one "failing" but not the most important one. No intramuscular shot seems to provide protection against infection of upper respiratory aerosol spread viruses. They provide IgG antibodies in the body serum, and that seeps into the lower lungs to provide protection from serious disease. But intramuscular vaccination does not provide even medium term protection against infection of the upper respiratory mucosal tissues. And that's really unfortunate but not unexpected if you knew anything about how influenza vaccination works. Those muscosal surface tissues require local IgA antibodies and resident B and T cells to prevent infections. Intramuscular vaccination does not cause this (though it does train the T cells that will go there when you do get infected).

So, intramuscular vaccination is not preventing sars-cov-2 infection of the upper respiratory and spread of the virus to others. This does not mean intramuscular vaccination is not needed. It is the vital first step. The next step is an intranasal vaccination booster to provide resident T cells to the upper respiratory (as well as a brief period of IgA antibodies and B cell residence).

If we're gonna get through this both "sides" have to acknowledge their failings. Intramuscular vaccination is both not enough and a required first step. Intranasal is next. Then we can finally start ending this pandemic.

The difference between COVID and measles is that the measles vaccine is actually effective (i.e., people vaccinated against measles never need to worry about it or take precautions against it in everyday life again), and it's also been around long enough to be confident there's no long-term side effects.

Those downstream checks are easily defeated in most cars. They work fine as a signal that the converter isn’t working iff you’re like most people and not trying to defeat them.

If you’re trying to defeat them, a simple RC or other timer circuit on the signal pins and enough current flow on the other pins to stand in for the heater (if equipped) will result in the ECU concluding everything is fine. Presumably someone trying to work around a catalytic converter issue would be more likely than average to fall into this category.

I've found it interesting to note how folks who are pro-choice/pro-life on the issue of abortion often have a morally contradictory stance in supporting mandatory vaccination. So if you are pro-choice, you believe women have the right to decide what happens to their bodies, even if it involves ending a potential life (a fetus), while people do not have the right to decide what happens to their body with respect to vaccination, even if it involves transmitting a potentially deadly virus. And vice-versa for pro-life.

> that nature is there to be economically exploited. Does a species run up a loss? Extinction is its fate.

Nature will do what it wants, so I can't speak for the wolves. Humans on the other hand, at least in US and Canada, operate under North American Model of Wildlife Conservation, whose core principles are elaborated upon in the seven major tenets:

* Wildlife as Public Trust Resources

* Elimination of Markets for Game

* Allocation of Wildlife by Law

* Wildlife Should Only be Killed for a Legitimate Purpose

* Wildlife is Considered an International Resource

* Science is the Proper Tool for Discharge of Wildlife Policy

* Democracy of Hunting

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Model_of_Wildli...

IOW, humans in US and Canada are less likely than ever to hunt animals to extinction, mostly because `Elimination of Markets for Game` makes it illegal to sell wild game.

I liked the idea in the start. But in 2017 i didn't think it was a viable alternative anymore.

Many people say banks are bad, but they protect many people against fraud, Bitcoin doesn't ( eg. Chargebacks or losing access)

Banks are replaced by unknown platforms in unknown countries in many places. Which results in an insane amount of hacks ( internally or externally). Hence: https://rekt.news

If banks use it as settlement later, they won't adopt any of the existing solutions. Leaving all the current implementations of Blockchain in the dust ( the proponents of crypto don't understand this argument though).

Many non-tech minded people won't keep an offline wallet, since most people are lazy ( that's not a bad thing, it's just a fact). But in this case it can be very dangerous.

The people buying Bitcoin have no idea how it works and can easily get scammed by other people ( eg. One coin wasn't even a Blockchain and I knew people that fell for it and they couldn't be convinced that they were being scammed. They know by now though, the hard way).

Even the original premise of Bitcoin is gone ( decentralization) and is being replaced by workarounds ( eg. Lightning and offchain wallets).

It's the same story over and over again. Now NFT's and later probably something else. The only constant is pump and dump schemes from whales and that it's the preferred destination of criminals.

In the end, it doesn't solve much and perhaps the solution for the rare case "it solved something", is just increasing internet availability to enable banking for poor people in remote areas. So they don't need to drive 3 hours ( eg. The actual problem/ solution of El Salvador and Bitcoin as a solution was a fake dogma)
It's a mix for sure. Rich sociopaths and would-be rich sociopaths definitely love econ-style arguments for a whole bunch of reasons. But for people who are more technocratic, it can be handy. "X is better and cheaper" can be powerful.

Of course, we live in an age where the nominally "fiscally responsible" people show declining interest in intellectual consistency and coherence, so maybe this argument is moving into the "elegant weapon for a more civilized age" category.

> Mean white-tailed deer weight in table 3 here is circa 50 kilos for females and circa 60 kilos for males:

You're not wrong, but since it's not really made explicit in the paper, I'll mention that since they are measuring these weights at the check-in stations, these are almost certainly the "field dressed weights". After killing a deer, the hunter usually removes the internal organs from the chest cavity before moving the deer. The actual live weight of the deer is will be about 1/3 higher. A 55 kg (120 lb) deer at the check in station will thus actually weigh closer to 70 kg (150 lb) when live: https://www.pgc.pa.gov/Wildlife/WildlifeSpecies/White-tailed....

A whole article about people grappling with whether to make little copies of themselves when there are tons of kids that need adopted. The whole idea of having a kid just seems like a weird selfish ego trip. I know there’s underlying primal instincts at play - years of evolution driving you to breed, but we have the brains to take a step back and say is this the best choice I can make if I’d like to love and raise a human? Could I provide a better life for an already existing human? Or am I just on some ego trip to make a little replica of myself.
Less we forget about <FRAME>

But we're doing way, way more than putting up posters saying to get vaccinated. For example, imagine how you'd react if Alabama mandated that every worker with a BMI above 30 had to be fired.

Yep, but it hasn't been standard, and was a new feature for me in my new car. Believe it or not, so were the power windows.

The only thing it does for me is mean that it's now much easier to leave my keys in my car. I think this trend began when luxury cars started adding it as a high tech marketing point, and then it trickled down over time to most cars in cargo-cult fashion.

Vaccination-based "discrimination" is not discrimination at all.

Discrimination can only happen based on factors beyond your control. You can't control your skin color. You can't control your gender, sexual preferences, country of origin, etc. either.

Not getting the vaccine is a choice. Choices have consequences.

This logic also dictates further scenarios:

- vaccine not available to everyone? ⇒ yes, distinguishing on vaccination status would be discrimination since you may not have the choice.

- vaccine required or forbidden by law? ⇒ yes, now things get really complicated. Especially if you travel elsewhere with different rules.

No need for him to check out Alaska. That also happened recently in his state of Montana. If he finds that not to be a cause for concern I doubt he will find Alaska's mismanagement of COVID persuasive.

We are testing on .NET 6 now with a large LoC monolithic asp.net system and the results indeed again have improved. We already rewrote a lot when we moved to .net 5 core to be more idiomatic so I guess those things were optimized more. It is not a huge jump but definitely nice work!

Edit; will try to post some numbers when all tests succeed; it is closed source but for a large (millions LoC) codebase I think it is nice to see how it performs under the same conditions compared to our current prod.

How to React Thoughtfully
I suggest you visit your doctor. It could have been Guillain Barre Syndrome
a known rare, but possible, effect of COVID-19 vaccines.

https://www.shutterstock.com/search/guillain+barre+syndrome

"Although the cause is unknown, the underlying mechanism involves an autoimmune disorder in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the peripheral nerves and damages their myelin insulation.[2] Sometimes this immune dysfunction is triggered by an infection or, less commonly, by surgery, and rarely, by vaccination."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillain%E2%80%93Barr%C3%A9_sy...

It is currently criminally under investigated by the CDC, who just "noticed" the
258 cases in the US reported in the VARS system. You can also get it after after different types of infections including getting Covid. So not related to the vaccine.
Well, I guess I know now how not to write one ;)
I am Apple Music customer since beginning and not once has been shuffle turned on automatically.

it's not ego. It's the drive of your genes to get into the future. Helping someone else's genes (that have some overlap with yours) is also adaptive, but not as much as people more closely related to you.
You would have to have around 94% vaccinated to have 25% of deaths be vaccinated at 42x protection. No country has that.
You're arguing semantics. GP's point is that the compiler shipped with the platform may produce better byte code, which could have an affect on the benchmark results. This seems like a reasonable point to make.

I was generally OK with the speed of Prost, and making it faster was not the goal really. The goal was to make the generated code more Rust-friendly.

It is probably faster due to straightforward decoding, no tag switch. At the cost of not being able to reorder fields or remove in the middle.

With protobuf implementations, one always goes from schema to generated code, which means certain choices can not be handled without further markup:

- what to do with unknown enum values

- which fields become Option

- which string or bytes fields should be by-ref rather than by-value

- derive of other traits

I guess the alternative could have been to build all that into Prost, but that seemed unreasonable. I see this more as a replacement of bincode than as a replacement of Prost.
SigV4 is limited to symmetric HMAC-type signatures which require a shared secret; and many of the specifics are tightly linked to AWS concepts like regions, service names, amz headers and so on.

Conceptually, SigV4 is not a whole lot different from a symmetric implementation of this draft; but the draft has support for public key signatures and binds to fewer AWS specificities.

And what is the alternate reality where they don’t get the vaccine and also don’t ever get covid?

Some sickness and pain is going to happen, is a choice between minor, temporary side effects or gambling with a covid infection. The virus is not going anywhere.
That's the first time I've heard DHTML to mean "distributed HTML" — I always knew it to mean "dynamic HTML".
Maybe it would be a better comparison if they called obese people "fat and crazy persons that endanger society by using up capacity in the healthcare system" or similar. Because this kind of speech is used by officials to describe people that don't want the vaccination.
This is fraud. If it's trivially provable the product is not counterfeit, then what they did is criminal. Not civil.

If so, it should be documented. All the evidence with relevant vendor contact information, accounts, dates, events. Each state has their own consumer protection laws, so as this involves interstate commerce who to report it to will vary, but you can start by calling local police. They can tell you about jurisdiction, and escalate to stat consumer protection division. And states work together with the FTC on such cases as well.

Maybe it's only happening with local music, which I have ripped from CDs. But, since we're at it, I recently lost the ability to search for local music without my phone looking for it on the internet and offering to download what I already own.

Also, with introduction of Apple Music, Apple disallowed sharing music over LAN. I always found it useful to be able to play music that sits on just one computer on the network, from any Apple device. What once just worked, now became a subscription fee for iirc $20/mo.

You could just have dirt roads. The problem isn't the road per se it's the crazy fast cars on the road. If cars rode at 12mph like they do on dirt roads, at about the speed a deer can gallop, that's like 25x less kinetic energy and if you hit a deer it'll bump and keep going.
Why is there no curiosity here about cryptocurrencies?

Well, let's ask "what makes cryptocurrencies different from startups or programming languages?"

Crypto are financial instruments anyone can buy into. Does that explain the drought of curiosity somehow?

Startups are financial instruments but you can't buy unless you're an accredited investor -- When we talk about the latest startup, like it or hate it, close to zero of us have skin in the game. However, investors benefit from the work of curious conversations.

Articles are not financial instruments -- so when we talk about an article or topic, there's no financial aspect to it.

Driving the point home, I believe cryptocurrencies will bring that financial lens to everything, from whether an article gets read, upvoted, to whether a startup succeeds, individuals will have ownership and that will change the nature of curiosity.
> is there a better service with a similarly broad catalog?

There is not.

> I really wish it were possible to pay for a separate player/discovery app, in addition to my Spotify subscription, that had access to the Spotify catalog.

This is possible. The Spotify SDK allows you to do practically anything, the only caveat is that Spotify is in control of playback state, you merely request the desired state. In practice this means you can do whatever you want -- no shuffle, better discovery, write your own radio or suggestion algorithms, etc.
