I wouldn't be so sure about that. The difference between white hat and black hat is usually only determined once the destination of the results of the activity is known. Plenty of bug bounty programs appear to be one element in the marketplace for valuing an exploit. If the bounty isn't high enough your 'white hat' may well change the color of their hat.
Telling people the truth and not forcing them to get vaccinated will have a larger effect.

The trouble with that piece, is that it is contradicted by this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/China_Flu/comments/es21aq/wuhan_pne...

(Chinese original has been deleted, but I remember seeing it at the time and running it through google, scroll down for English translation in the comments)

which reports a case with symptoms starting 24th December, and reports of the hospitals in Wuhan already having multiple cases. Patient didn't visit the market, but did work near.

With what we now know of disease progression, and infectiousness, this pushes the initial date back at least a month, probably two or more.

As a developer who worked both with Windows Forms and React, IMO the only explanation for longing for the former could be that lovely nostalgia feeling when you already know what react offers.

I think people approach it with prejudice (ew, Javascript!) and never properly learn it.

There are projects where react would be overkill but many benefit from the clear separation of the front end.

Also configuring a react project is easier than many other projects I've seen in my career. People just love getting internet points by constantly talking about left-pad, node_modules size, config files etc. I personally know how crazy managing maven or gradle (.gradle folder hell) or nuget or composer or pip (venv or virtualenv...) or [name of your favorite package manager] can get, so I'm thankful for the great community that work on the problems with the npm.
Except that's not how Covid spreading actually works, and if you look at the relevant science it proves that vaccination status does not stop or slow the spread at all. It simply lowers the chances you'll experience symptoms, which renders any type of vaccine mandate as illogical and pointless. It actually shows that the vaccinated are the likely reason for the recent mass spreading...since while un-vaxxed are more likely to be in bed with symptoms away from other people while vaxxed are walking around town unknowingly spreading it to people at the grocery store.

Anyone that supports vaccine mandates that take away people's livelihoods while denying this science that PROVES otherwise is an absolutely terrible human being.

Or they simply don't have data to prove conclusively it was not leaked, because it wasn't logged correctly.

And being a paranoid communist autocracy, they'll naturally take the "limit information" approach over "release everything and let external parties determine a verdict".
The beta coronavirus class has a paucity of naturally occurring furin cleavage sites relative to the other coronavirus clades. I'm just saying that copying sequence from genomes a few species over is very common strategy for engineering projects.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7836551/

Irony is that this paper is highly doctored to make it look (from the figures) like the opposite point, without outright lying, like they loaded the dendrogram of beta coronaviruses with a ton of sequences that are distinct but "basically from the same collection", to make the pie slice of betas with furin cleavage sites look much much bigger than it should be. Also, the betas are excerpted from the dendrogram of all coronaviruses...

Do you believe the DRASTIC leaked document?

I can't imagine a group of nonexperts drafting this document - correctly - just to make up a conspiracy theory - I'm not a virologist but I am a molecular biologist and biochemist and skimming the leaked document all of the technobabble looks correct to my understanding of science.

Hi Max - Thanks for the good wishes. I wanted to clarify that one of the major benefits of the CocoTerra machine is that you CAN fully customize the chocolate. You can choose the type (white, milk, dark, % cocoa), choose the origin (cocoa beans from different farms taste completely different - much like coffee or wine), choose different roast profiles (much like coffee), use different sugars (cane, palm, allulose, etc.) add different flavorings (spices and oils) and add different inclusions (nuts, raisins, puffs, etc.). On top of that, you can decorate the chocolate (using transfer sheets) and we plan to support different mold designs. I hope that people will learn to savor their chocolate too!!
Progress happens when the incumbent interest is disrupted by something they couldn't see coming, or couldn't stop because of their own inertia.
Eh, correlation ≠ causation.

It takes a huge leap of faith to claim that their product went from main recommendation to upgrade recommendation (not really a downrank) because they don't have an affiliate program.

To me, the xdesk guy is reading extremely hard into two independent events to try to claim cause-and-effect where it doesn't really exist.

Their pricepoint is high and the standing desk space has commoditized a lot. There are plenty of good affordable options these days. It sounds like they just make a niche high-end product; I was surprised to hear it was Wirecutter's initial recommendation for most people in the first place — I don't know too many people that read Wirecutter guides and are also looking to spend $1,500 on a standing desk.

Exactly, app developers who opt for flatpaks no longer have to give a damn about downstream. App uses an ancient version of OpenSSL that downstream won't package? No problem, use a flatpak. App needs symbols from a dropped API in ImageMagick and downstream won't package the out-of-date library? No problem, use a flatpak.

When app developers needed to work with downstream, end users won because it forced app developers to keep up with the environment to meet the requirements of repo packagers. Flatpak is directly in contest with this, trading packaging efficiency and keeping apps up-to-date for app ossification and upstream convenience.
No, thank you. I thoroughly enjoyed the article. I also enjoy the title, although it caused some cognitive dissonance by implying that the primary thesis would be: to be careful trying to use trees, where meshes are more appropriate.

Instead the concluding thesis was: "Whenever Possible, Make a Tree" and due to my expectations I thought for a second that I may have accidentally skipped over some section which championed meshes.

Potentially, putting the thesis as a single sentence near the top would prime readers so they can accurately ingest the rest of the article with proper prejudice.
A VCR isn't like most other forms of visual recording media where it takes an image and records it in some other format to be converted back to an image later, it's actually a 1-to-1 analogue recording of the broadcast signal (minus any degradation from being an analogue copy). So by design it includes any tricks they used to include metadata in the normal broadcast signal.

The mechanics of how they worked are actually pretty interesting, I highly recommend Technology Connections' video on the subject [1], as well as the one on closed-captioning [2] (and his series on analogue TV in general [3])

They went through the numbers as realized it would be cheaper to build an equivalent product than buy your startup. This is always a risk founders and investors are aware of. There's nothing disgusting about it. I wouldn't even go as far as saying it was people "focused on their career." They were really just doing their jobs.
Never heard of SJC. Reading about it and their curriculum makes me happy and also jealous ;)

I haven't been following this super closely but I think you're missing an entire angle of this. The copying part is just a symptom, the real issue was that

1. McDonald's forced all franchise owners to use this machine that would break often, and could only be fixed by this other company McDonalds had close ties to.

2. McDonald's didn't allow franchise owners to allow this other tool that allowed franchise owners to keep their machines up and working

3. (What you mention) now the other company just copied this tool for themselves.

1 and 2 is much more problematic, given the close ties between McDonalds and Taylor Company.
Within a high level design there's often a lot of room for variations in the implementation such as code structure; though this freedom decreases significantly if you have a wide enough audience to need to consider Hyrum's Law.

Concretely, let's say I'm designing a term-rewriting system. The program will be inspecting an abstract syntax tree (AST) for certain patterns, and if it detects those patterns, rewriting them. (e.g. if we see the AST for "1 + 1" rewrite to "2"). I might write up a document on the architecture for the system, and a list of rewriting rules I need. How those rules are written can be left up to individuals on my team as long as it fits into the architecture, has the required functionality, and is of reasonable quality.
What does that have to do with cocaine? They're different drugs, don't confuse the two.
Thanks for the support, Sam. We hope to give you more than a couple reasons to pull it out of the cabinet!

Regarding price, the initial CocoTerra release is priced in the range of other new, breakthrough appliances. We expect that there will be a variety of price points over time, as we expand our product line and ramp our volumes.

Hopefully, we can make you into a chocolate maker.
Leaker conspiracy theories are almost never true in this field. E.g. I happen to know for a fact that the HDCP master key that "leaked" a few years back was computed from a pile of device keys (using an attack that had been known almost since HDCP's inception), not leaked from Intel.
From the article: "About 60% of Putrino’s patients have had to change jobs or stop working as a result of their illness."

Long covid seems like a possible explanation for at least some portion of the worker shortages in the USA. Which may mean some worker shortages will be long term (until the young take their place or if the workers eventually recover).

Given the virus is not going away and the vaccines are not designed to protect against infection is it possible there will be an ever growing number of people disabled by long covid because eventually everyone will have a breakthrough infection?
I don't think anyone is underestimating the difficulty. Even if we had boots on the ground one day 1 we might not know more than we do now. But NOT having boots on the ground at all, is negligence. For a year it was verboten to discuss the possibility of a lab leak. It was deemed fake news... If it is so difficult, then how did they KNOW? The answer was, no one knew, but it was still forbidden to discuss it

That is the problem here.

The fact that lab leaks have occurred, and that ground zero appears to be near one of the only labs researching this... Well that is enough suspicion to investigate. But apparently that was crazy talk.

> So even unvaccinated younger people (age < 30) are better off than the average vaccinated Joe

Of course you can only say this only for a big 18-29 age group viewed as an aggregate (regarding mortality), but can't say that generally of members the group.

Eg according to https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/meetings/downloads/slides-... the deaths in 25-29 age group are dramatically more common than among 18-24 year olds, and there are other individual traits that are big factors in death risk. So it's safe to say that lots of <30 year olds have multi-% death risks, not to mention lifelong or long lasting harm from the additional near death cases.

(But of course the most important thing is to reduce infections between people to keep riskier groups alive, so even without personal death risk it would be incredibly immoral to not get vaxed)

One part of this I don't understand is why would McDonald's benefit from their franchises constantly needing their ice cream machines serviced.
Consider these two statements:

A) The differences are mostly genetic for sports, but not for academics.

B) Many (most?) people would say the differences are mostly genetic for sports, but not for academics.

You seem to be arguing against A (about which I expressed no opinion).
Is there anything that specifically prompted you to live in London in place of other cities like Paris, Seoul, Tokyo, or areas elsewhere in the US and the rest of North America? Given what I've read on tax rates, incomes, and QoL (especially after Brexit) it doesn't seem economically advantageous to live there as a tax resident, especially with FATCA hanging over your head.
The problem with relying so heavily on argument from coincidences is that one then incurs the epistemic responsibility to seek out and explain alway other coincidences in the neighborhood putatively pointing to alternative explanations (a step people often forget, but is essential for the validity (insofar as one can speak of validity) of one's argument from coincidences). And such coincidences are always easy to find, since coincidences are cheap. (To take just one example, the pandemic happened shortly after the World Military Games, which US servicemen attended, at a time when the relations between the two countries were at their worst in recent times, and who came from a country one of whose household names novelists once publicly fantasized about all the world's nations coming together and use biological weapons to wipe out the entire population of China, based on none other than the desire to curb China's peaceful rise (cf. Unparalleled Invasion)) Do these "coincidences" need explaining away? Do they need to create a presumption in favor of the bioattack theory? If not, what is it about spatial proximity coincidence that gives it such power to confer that sort of presumption?

>Of course that group has a big house in the countryside among the birds and the trees, where they don’t have to deal with neighbours, traffic noise, or other distractions. But that doesn’t entitle them to make those decisions or project their opinions onto the rest of us.

To flip your argument, why does your decision to live in a crowded, noisy, high rent (= small living space) city entitle you to make those decisions or project your opinions onto the rest of us?
I’m pretty sure that’s more of an aspirational goal than a hard requirement at many churches. Though it frequently (usually?) is also pre tax, not post.

I've always been curious on this question because I don't have any physics background.

If you made something like a gravitron ride on the moon, would it take a slower rotation speed to reach perceived 1g than if you spun up a ring station in orbit? This calculator makes it seem like you could get pretty close to 1g with just a bullet train running on a 3.14 kilometer loop.

It seems like the main thing stopping earth trains from being faster is that most of our tracks were built a really long time ago and it's not worth the effort replacing them, but if metal is readily available and you're laying new track already, designing for ~300km/hr wouldn't be that much of a stretch no?
Why does it matter if it's significantly cheaper?

“Kytch points to documents from the time of Taylor's acquisition by Middleby in 2018 that show the company receives close to 25 of its revenue—from all its customers, not just McDonald's—via repair contracts with Taylor distributors, which Kytch argues provides an incentive to maintain the machines' fragility.“

The missing piece is the kickback to McDonald’s, or a similar financial incentive from Taylor to maintain the status quo. I imagine that’d be a component of discovery or information requested by a federal regulator.
Oh gosh, I've seen enough people use cocaine that I wouldn't call it a "mild" stimulant by any stretch of my imagination. It's basically a stronger form of caffeine.

One friend of mine with severe ADHD turns completely normal on it. Everyone else that I've seen use it becomes an asshole. I'm pretty open minded about letting adults choose what they want to do with their bodies, but I don't like being around people using coke.

Edit: If it wasn't for the cardiac issues, I'd wonder if it would make a better ADHD medicine.
A factor of 2.4 is extremely unlikely to be what makes the difference between a program being viable and not. You have to be in an extremely fine-tuned situation for that to make the difference, and unless your usage level is unusually static it's probably only going to make the difference for a few weeks or months.
As the GP points out the problem you're up against is the tooling - to be mainstream a new language needs to be supported by the main commercial ASIC tool chains - synopsys/cadence/etc, the tools from each of the FPGA, as well at least one high performance compiled simulator (probably running on both linux and windows) - then you need coverage tools, linters or equivalents, plus you need to be able to access IP libraries in all the tapeout synthesis targets (which probably means mix and match with existing verilog and vhdl libraries and IP generators).

It's not impossible, but it is an incredibly big chicken and egg problem where most of the pieces are out of your control - the best you can do is to make highly efficient (ie synthesises well, simulates well) verilog or vhdl and hope enough people start using your tooling that the big vendors choose to implement your language as a target.

(oh and My (system)Verilog has far more types than just wire, is accepted by the big guy's tooling and generate allows me to avoid almost all copying)
This is a baffling and backwards mentality to me. I don't want an "app" most of the time, I want a damn webpage with hypermedia.
...but that report doesn't contradict anything. The current earliest known case is a Huanan market seafood vendor who contracted the disease on Dec -11-. Dec 24 is way late in the existing epidemiological timeline. (And no one is saying the above is the provable first case, just the first recorded case.)
wow, guess due diligence wasn't in fashion at the time
If you capture the carbon to shortly after that burn it again you are not reducing the carbon in the atmosphere, you may be only reducing how much you add (maybe, if actually fossil carbon stops to be extracted).

And the problem is that how much is released already is what made global average temperature rise for 1+ºC already, and knowing how much time it remains in the atmosphere, will keep increasing that temperature.

So what is needed is to capture the carbon, at a rate bigger than the 50Gt a year that we are emitting it, according to the article, and not burning it again.

Of course, that doesn't mean that what will be done is what is really needed.
He's saying that data showing an entire vaccinated country that's spreading covid faster than anywhere else is useless because it doesn't align with his politically motivated opinion.

Another term for this is "cognitive dissonance", or "burying your head in the fucking sand".

Forcing your franchisees to do business with a company that you have a stake in for something that is considered a solved problem ('keeping things cold') is a fairly textbook anti-competitive move.

Back in the days, Processing was the only game in town and then P5 built on that reputation.

I found the programming model of these solutions to be rather convulted and think D3 would lead to a much better entry into coding.
