Despite the illogical nature of your assertion “they only slightly reduce the risk of infection and transmission”, actually studies show that circulation rate and infectiousness ARE reduced by the vaccine.

I doubt you'd be able to get up to full thrust with the covers on though. If it wouldn't be sucked in and shredded/burned (in which case it wouldn't be seen floating in the sea), it wouldn't be possible to get the amount of airflow you ned to get it up to full thrust for takeoff.

Which has a different failure mode to disks/NAS/fileservers.

AWS/Dropbox/Google/BackBlaze et al. are all at risk from credit card and/or financial failures. I can go broke and be unable to pay my bills, but my hard drives will still store my data.

Google and AWS (to a lesser extent) are also occasionally subject to arbitrary and capricious account revocation. Google specifically worries me there, there are way too many stories of people have problems with, say, they Google Play developer account or their YouTube account, and finding they're cut off from their gmail and google drive access, with pretty much zero way if fixing it unless you have a million twitter followers or a Google insider to go to bat for you.

It can be as loud and purposely unsound as it wants. That won't stop me from thinking it's a bad tool.

The problem is that function parameter variance is still wrong, even with all the strict flags. You just have to wrap the Dog/Animal in an Array or object. Pass in an { pet: Dog } to a function that accepts a { pet: Animal }, and the function can replace your Dog with a Cat, and TypeScript is perfectly happy to let you call `o.pet.bark()` afterwards.
Typical red LEDs used for displays have a peak emission somewhere in 600-650nm range, but it's bell curvish so yeah you can expect a small amount of 670nm light out of it.

Does getting exact 670nm light matter? It's just the wavelength that this particular study investigated. They do not offer conclusions for other wavelengths as they did not test them, it's as simple as that. But a lot of other researchers did, especially in red/infrared part of the spectrum and generally with positive results - http://bitly.com/PBM-database. So I would guess you should be able to get some of the described effect at nearby wavelengths as well. 670nm seems to be near an absorption peak of cytochrome c oxidase, a molecule believed to be involved in the mechanism of light therapy action, which is why I suppose it appears frequently in research.
Lol, I know for a fact you have never once done street photography. Everything you just said proves it. I didn't just make this shit up and my singling out men was my intent. I don't really give a shit if you believe me or think I'm biased, it the facts regardless if you can deal with it. For the record I considered myself male and yeah men fucked it up for everyone. Deal with it.

Also I've been through this very thing after I took photos of people reading books from out on the street at Powell's books in Portland. The company seen the photos on Instagram and re promoted the photos. I was attacked senselessly by angry women who took issue with photos without consent claiming they were creepy and offensive. https://500px.com/photo/253650727/portland-street-photograph...

There was nothing wrong with anything I had done. I just fell victim to a valid concern by people who have been pushed to their breaking point because of other men who abuse the public domain. So I have a personal issue with these men as they have cause me and countless others problems and yeah they fucked it up for me. I know some of these men personally and I don't care for them one fucking bit. Oddly they placate the issue just the same as you, saying similar things as you. go figure.

On the other hand, there are far too many examples of identical twins adopted by different families that even ended up in the same profession and even chose similar spouses to be ignored, It's frustrating that many people intentionally conflate eugenics (which called for sterilization or worse for people deemed "inferior") with simple acknowledgement that humans, like every other organism on the planet, have genes which influence their traits including behavior.

Seconded. Currency debasement plays an instrumental role in real estate speculation. If investors could just count on their cash to retain and increase in value over time, their insatiable appetite to own real estate as an inflation-resistant asset would relent.

Fix the money, and fix the housing affordability crisis. Slash the demand to buy housing as an investment.
As you mention, our brain adapts pretty easily to varying lighting conditions in the real world, and that could also work on a screen[1], but the ambiant context is what matters: if you look at an image “A” in your said “undefined color space” after having spent quite some times looking at sRGB images for a while, then your image “A” would look absolutely horrible until your brain starts to adapt, like when you put sunglasses on or off for instance. The big difference being: with sunglasses, we have no choice but wait for our brain to adapt, but on a computer all the user would do is close the image.

I've got a while to go yet before I'm worried about capacity there, and 12TB drives are already available, and will easily be in the right budget soft spot for me when I need them.

> OK. So why are governments going to mandate these "vaccines"? Remember the CDC had to change the definition of vaccine to account for these not preventing illness.

Keeping people out of hospitals and ICUs so that they can be used for other sick people is good enough to keep mandating the vaccines.

> Remember the CDC had to change the definition of vaccine to account for these not preventing illness.

No, almost all vaccines have prevents rates that are well below 100%. The flu vaccine, for example, is only about 60% effective, and it doesn't take the bite off anyone who actually gets the flu (one reason it probably isn't mandated). The CDC probably changes language because there are lots of people out there that interpret language differently from other people. They want precise meaning on vaccine precise results, whereas vaccines have never provided precise results. Such literalists are really becoming the bane of society these days.

I live in the PNW and I recently read in this book https://www.amazon.com/Razor-Clams-Treasure-Pacific-Northwes...

My point is, until we ban the immediate popping up of these figureheads on Big Pharma boards (something Trump tried and failed to do, and Biden won't even try), there's a massive conflict of interest, and everything they say and do should be regarded with a lot of suspicion. Pay them twice as much,
but then say "you can't take money from the companies you're charged with regulating, directly or otherwise, for 5 years or you go to jail". The situation we have right now is just dumb and corrupt AF across the board. Fauci generated somewhere near half a trillion dollars of revenue for Pfizer just on COVID alone, and there's nothing whatsoever in US law preventing him from collecting a de-facto deferred bribe after he leaves NIAID. Happens to every single one of these figureheads, without any exceptions. I strongly suspect that's why they take these relatively unexciting jobs in the first place - for the potential to earn something more "exciting" that they wouldn't be able to get otherwise.

If you think they have your interests in mind, I suggest you reconsider. At best, your interests might sometimes align with those of their true masters. But if they don't, who gives a shit - Pfizer has legal immunity now.

Very recently I used an icecast [1] output (mpd can have multiple audio outputs you can switch or use parallel on demand) on my headless server to automatically cast the stream to the inbuild chromecast of my onkyo receiver to listen to audiobooks.

Homeassistant uses its own MPD integration to check the state is changing (play/stop), when it changes to play it sends the shoutcast url to the chromecast.

Also stuff like this on the terminal makes me happy:

I have hired a number of EAs before. Some general suggestions:

* if you are flexible about location, consider areas other than the Bay Area. Top talent here is expensive. A top flight EA might run 125k/year in the bay.
* great EAs tend to have long stable tenures. Ideally they have at least a few roles with 4+ years in role.
* For the same reason, EAs through temp agencies tend to be weaker. You can find some gems there but it is usually special circumstances - like they took time off for health or the company folded. (Effectively much worse signal to noise ratio)
* Good EAs have the core part of the job (time management) completely down pat and often are hungry for additional projects and can talk about them. Another sign is that they have successfully supported multiple execs simultaneously. They have strong opinions about how they work and the tools they use.
* when possible, call references. You should get absolutely glowing ones for great EAs.
* interview to make sure they are a culture fit too and aligned with your values. I’ve had EAs who were competent but really brusque/rude and that impacts their ability to be successful.

Less a hiring signal but more of how to think about them: A great EA should see around corners for you. Reach out to me in my profile if you’d like more tips about managing them.

Your Haskell example doesn't actually violate its own type system, though. 1/0 is Fractional or Double or whatever, so it gives Infinity. 1`div`0 is Integer and Infinity is not an Integer, so it explodes, instead.

Simple question: what is the "ground truth"?

If you author an image on Display A and save its colours, then how does Display B know to render colours correctly that looks consistently with Display A?

You have two options:

1.) Tag Display A's colour space into the image, then convert colours to match Display B's colour space when rendering;

2.) Convert colour data from Display A colour space into a generic colour space (like sRGB, Display P3, ACEScg, etc) and embed that in to the image, then convert colours to match Display B's colour space when rendering.
>Why not? Isn't that most jobs?

No. In most jobs, employees know specifically what their employers' requirements are, they have specific tasks and itineraries and boundaries. "Know what I want before I want it" isn't an appropriate expectation to have of any assistant.

The Year Ahead for Covid. Will We Finally Toss Our Masks?
Spanish flu of 1918 caused over 50 million to die and it infected around 500 million people when there were 1.8 billion people in the world. That’s almost 30% of the world population. Realistically, the number should be over 50%. Interestingly, the flu never went away and it became a regular disease losing its virality. Some experts believe that we will have the same for Covid-19 and we have strong reasons to believe that considering what we have seen in 2021.

Compare the DIAAS scores (see a short overview of DIAAS here — https://www.arlafoodsingredients.com/the-whey-and-protein-bl...). Plant-based sources of indispensable amino acids are lacking; that, combined with the sheer amount of water and energy necessary to produce & process them make them a very bad choice indeed, especially set against pastured ruminants, as (primary) protein sources.

"No dedicated hardware"; but for best results you'll need a wired ethernet connection, wired headphones, a good microphone and an audio interface, and on Windows an ASIO driver.

"For the lowest possible latency, FarPlay establishes peer-to-peer connections between users": Except when the peers are on different ISP networks and the packets are forced to travel to some distant node, introducing latency at every node along the way. In my experience with this issue using Jamulus, having a server in the cloud at a suitable location reduces latency. Minimizing "the distance travelled" isn't important if there are few nodes introducing latency. The speed of light along wires is orders of magnitude faster than the speed of sound through air.

"the faster your connection, the better your results will be"; Misleading; it's latency not bandwidth that's critical and a "fast" connection normally refers to bandwidth.

We will keep seeing graphs that go up and down until this pandemic somehow ends. Looking at a graph where the cases keep oscillating every few months is really demoralizing.

> * Balkan countries, which had an early wave, and are on a recovery course. Note how their case numbers didn't go that high, most likely because they are poor and testing penetration is not that high.

And...if the graph keeps looking like it has, we will have spikes followed by drops followed by spikes again, wash, rinse, and repeat. Florida has a different cycle (maybe AC related as people get cold inside during the hot summer, and the fall comes along and weather is nice, and then a cold snap might happen in January).

>it misses the bottom percentiles overlooking, it overlooks them; as e.g. the French revolution shows, it may become untenable, for good reasons, at any moment.

The French Revolution was precipitated by large scale starvation, conditions that the US is extremely far from. This is, ironically, a case of bias looking at successful revolution-- most revolutions historically aren't successful and certainly not to the extent the French Revolution was(influencing later revolutions and the political thought). Looking at recent revolutions across the Middle East and Africa in the past decade, most of them largely fizzle out when the ruling party pushes back with force. Even when everyone want a revolution, most people aren't willing to put their own life on the line for it. Not unless the alternative is worse-- bringing us back to the conditions that started the French Revolution
