You’re stripping out important context there. He was comparing it to SARS and MERS with CFRs of 9-10%, so saying COVID-19 would be closer to the influenza end of the spectrum if, and only if, some of the early info on the infection fatality rate was correct.

As a happy user of AWS Linux 2, it is extremely disappointing that they're no longer providing a drop-in RHEL replacement for EC2. I don't see any mention of things we and many large shops like ours care about - long term support and RHEL compatibility.

We've been very vocal to AWS product managers and solution architects about our needs for an Amazon Linux 3 that is a refresh over AWS Linux 2 (at least 5 years support with RHEL 8 compatibility, free kernel patching w/o reboots, official support from datadog, vmware images). Sad that we haven't been heard. We'll now need to plan to move over 20k instances to Rocky Linux.

I suspect that the move to using Fedora has something to do with changes to the CentOS project that AWS Linux 2 forked. Let's hope the beancounters at IBM doesn't have other plans for Fedora.

> why would they buy someone who does not so well?

IIRC, MediaTek is the largest SoC vendor by volume. Hardly the definition of "doing not so well".

Yes, the MediaTek quality is ... not exactly the greatest, I agree. But that is where Intel could shine... Intel would save the money to invest in starting in a green field, and provide MediaTek with a (desperately needed) injection of quality.

I didn't think I was stripping out important context, but I will add more for your:

If one assumes that the number of asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic cases is several times as high as the number of reported cases, the case fatality rate may be considerably less than 1%. This suggests that the overall clinical consequences of Covid-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of a severe seasonal influenza (which has a case fatality rate of approximately 0.1%) or a pandemic influenza (similar to those in 1957 and 1968) rather than a disease similar to SARS or MERS, which have had case fatality rates of 9 to 10% and 36%, respectively.

I don't think that really changes things. The orders of magnitude are 0.1%, 1%, 10%, and he's saying it may be considerably less than 1%, i.e., much closer in relative magnitude (and obviously far nearer in absolute terms) to a seasonal flu.

You are the one who is missing the larger context of this thread, which has been an unfair bullying of someone going back over what they had said 2 years ago about covid and claiming he should "sit this one out". Given this is the position that the experts had back then, clearly having an opinion that it was like a seasonal flu was not way out of line.

And my question to OP about Fauci stands too. Given that is what he wrote, and I provided the link for full context, what credibility should we assign to his current statements.

You mean this incident https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_bombing_of_the_C... ?

Quote:

>Large demonstrations erupted at consular offices of the United States and other NATO countries in China in reaction to news of the bombing. On May 9, 1999, then-Vice President Hu Jintao delivered a national televised speech calling the act both "criminal" and "barbaric" and that it "has greatly infuriated the Chinese people." He said the unauthorized demonstrations in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu and Shenyang reflected the anger and patriotism of the Chinese people, and which the Chinese government fully supported, but urged against extreme and illegal conduct.

>The protests continued for several days, during which tens of thousands of rock-throwing protesters kept U.S. Ambassador James Sasser and other staff trapped in the Beijing embassy.

There's zero evidence that the CCP censors pro- and anti- government information equally here. None. Only that, after first inflaming the rioters.... they eventually owned up to their internationally recognized responsibility to protect embassy staff.
I cannot recall where I saw this, but I recently encountered an infinitely scrolling list where a simple interaction (akin to a checkbox) would "bookmark" or "pin" the item for that session only. It created a very thin UI element with "next" / "previous" arrows and a count of bookmarks, similar to a Find Text interface. On hover (immediately, no hover delay) or touch-hold for next/prev the title of the item was displayed in a tool tip. It felt very natural and snappy, but for the life of me I can't find it again.

I agree with this.

I’ve often contemplated that given that the part of me that has a poor work ethic and refuses to get help has generally won out, I would easily be on the streets if I was born into a family of low socioeconomic status, rather than having lots of savings and living in a nice apartment. Also, I’ve spiraled downwards many times, and I’m lucky that food, isolation, internet are my vices, rather than hard drugs.

In the times I’ve finally “decided” to improve my life, I honestly have no explanation for why I did that, versus continue to spiral downwards.

On the web it can definitely become a performance constraint, unfortunately. Frameworks can fold under even this number of rows if you're, for example, re-rendering your entire VDOM tree on every keystroke in an input field. This part can be optimized around fairly easily if you know how, but then the next barrier is number of DOM nodes (specifically, the layout calculations that may have to be done on them when even something seemingly unrelated on the page changes). Depending on the complexity of your rows and what else may be going on on the page, you're probably still confined to the triple-digits if you want smooth performance.

One strategy I've used before to improve the user experience and help people miss Ctrl+F less is to load the full data set into memory, even if only a small slice of it is actually rendered at a time, and then do all paging/searching/sorting/filtering client-side. JavaScript has no issue handling six digits of items this way, and it keeps things really snappy.

When I hung out with a homeless guy in North Beach, SF for a good hour while he was painting his perspective on shelters was that the addicted folks were in shelters, and non-addicts that went to shelters were treated as if they were addicts. He felt rather de-humanized by the whole system and so he stays on the street.

I haven’t seen these videos yet, but I’m curious if they went to shelters or streets.
Build a time machine and invest more in the CDC and the NIH back in 1985?

Seriously though I can't think of a more reasonable strategy than that carried out by the US, Sweden, and China (each represents a different experiment).

China's extreme level of population restriction and high level of testing seems to have greatly reduced transmission and impact (I don't know how to interpret China's published numbers, and I don't really trust them that much). This is probably necessary in any area where population density is high enough that rapid transmission can occur. However, my guess is that it also led to a large number immune-naive people and I don't think that any current vaccine will be useful for more than a year, so I think they're at constant risk of explosive disease growth that they can only address through strict policies.

For countries with fairly small number of dense cities, like Sweden, I think what they did was excellent. They stated their prior beliefs and more or less stuck to them and, in my interpretation, they did not suffer any more than other countries, when population density is considered.

Finally, the US. The US did fairly well even though there is a large noncompliant population for a number of reasons. First, we've invested heavily in disease management infrastructure (research, hospitals, strong public health) which meant that we could deal with (to some extent) the massive surge of patients going to hospitals who then infected others nosocomically, and have industries that developed vaccines and other treatments quickly. Second, we actually have a well organized public health system that is relatively powered to implement unpopular but reasonable policies. But, I worry that our court system moves too slowly (for example I would really like to see the supreme court making an extraordinary decision that the US has full rights to mandate vaccines for its entire population) and we have a large number of people who seem to actively fight reasonable public health measures.

So in short, the best approach is to have a large amount of resources (public health researchers, medical folks) combined with excellent realtime knowledge about spread, a largely compliant population which is willing to suspend civil liberties in emergency situations, and political leaders who are willing to risk their long-term careers by providing cover for the researchers.

Finally, thank goodness that the US had the foresight to make and fund the NIH and CDC for so long, providing us with an excellent foundation with which to respond to diseases like this. I am in awe of the folks who pushed for the creation of a new field (molecular biology) in the 30s and 40s which led to the elucidation of the genetic code and development of structural biology, which ultimately provides the foundation for much of our understanding of viruses.

Reading some comments here and it does confuse me

Promises, async and await in javascript, coroutines and threads in kotlin, fibers in some language runtime (including this php 8.1 [0]), single process (nodejs), multi-process(php-fpm worker), single-thread, multi-thread, goroutines in go, multi-core coroutines

Googling the definitions and x vs y situation helps a little, the main confusion to me is why some people want this xyz feature in a language runtime and not the other, the pros and cons are seriously so confusing

I have probably used several, like promises, async, await, like others said async would be implement on fibers [1] (is php 8.1 implementation same as V8,spidermonkey,javascriptcore? or any other language runtime). And I have tried to understand kotlin coroutines as well

modern times to run php, people would use php-fpm with nginx, it is running multiple worker (single) process, so why would anyone [2], [3] wants multi-core coroutines in it? What does it even mean?

Writing this out ease my mind a bit yea, need to be able to communicate the confusion instead of just saying "programming is difficult"

We are talking about nonstandard notation that is often specific to the author or to a limited research subfield, for which there are no standard courses or books that would explain the notation. You’d need to take a specific course by someone in the respective research community. Or sometimes, as noted above, it’s possible to follow back a dozen or more papers to retrace the idiosyncrasies in an almost archaeological manner.
It’s also about ten years later than everyone else to get those splat and null coalesce operators so it’s not like that elegance is unique or even timely for PHP.
