It's not about wanting someone to see something arbitrarily cruel, but about knowing the raw truth about how the world works.

> the dog meme is a coping mechanism for professionals in dealing with a domain that will always throw problems at them that push them beyond their local knowledge

I think most memes are meant to express ephemeral events and feelings, not serious summaries of someone’s career or wishes.
I can't speak for everyone. But I definitely think that a lot of people are put off by buying a house next to a Beware of Dog guy even though they know that one could move in tomorrow. Also, in California, a lot of people are in neighborhoods who could never afford to move in but own the home and don't have to worry about increasing taxes.
Interesting, I never thought about allergies.

I've had not one but two turbinate resections, each time with a different ENT. From memory, neither had even bothered to really stress some of the risks others have pointed out.

I think my quality of life improved rather substantially after the first I had. To my disappointment, it didn't last. This eventually prompted me to seek out another several years later. Again, some improvement, but this time that time window was even shorter.

I'm now at the point where I've given up and just learned to live with feeling of being completely blocked through one nostril. It's frustrating.

I find the feeling affects me most when sleeping (I've tried CPAP to get restful sleep without much success) and during heavy aerobic exercise (having to constantly blow out mucous build-up as I'm running).
I don't consider it a fork unless it includes the state. For example, ZCash is based on Bitcoin code but nobody considers it a fork of Bitcoin and there are various chains like Avalanche that support EVM but they aren't forks of Ethereum.
That may be the case, but the immunity you got through infection also involved you getting sick once.
$35 per day for me. 1.5x for the first 3 hours. 2.5x for every hour after.

Minimum call out fee of 2 hours regardless of the length of the call.

Also in Australia. This only started when I joined as an SRE.

Prior to that the Devs just said no it'll stay broken till we come back to work and that was largely acceptable. The on call rates only started as our reliability became more of a business need.
It doesn't imply that at all. There could be a number of ways the virus delays early immune response while still creating more problems later at a different scale.
Not really. There have always been smartphones that supported both GSM and CDMA. The three major carriers not only use different LTE bands, but also Verizon and shortly AT&T (in February) have adopted a whitelist model where only select handsets can be activated on their networks. It's a much less open marketplace than it was five years ago.

Fourier, 200 years ago showed you can create a curve of any shape you can imagine by adding Sine Waves. The synth applies that to music and speech.

But the concept is applied in hundreds of fields as you move from curve, to planes to volumes.

The key magic is the sine wave which unlike other curves on differentiation any number of times always produces a sine way due it's deep connection to anything in nature that Repeats.

> Sure there are things like DRM, but that is just an abstraction on top of a fungible thing that tries to make that thing non-fungible.

I'm not being deliberately obtuse, here, but how is that any different from NFTs?

It's weird because I understand the tech, but not what makes this application compelling.

> we are just starting to figure out how to actually give a digital thing ownership

Isn't copyright already doing that? Certainly the movie and music industries have a strong sense of digital ownership without NFTs.

NFTs so provide an easy path to transfer ownership, but that does nothing to keep the material from being copied any more than copyright does.

What am I missing?
They’re referencing a bit from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
I find comments like this interesting - what is so implausible about this? It’s just a bit of radio chatter, nothing amazing happens, just a funny anecdote that a pilot tells when speaking to an audience.

Maybe because it’s a polished story that he told over and over? Maybe one of the planes was an added embellishment to make the story longer?

The last part is the most plausible- that they would do an unnecessary speed check as a joke to tweak a pilot of a different armed service.
Are you not also the foreigner pushing out locals? Couldn't you have that sense of community back where you moved from?

As a biologist looking at comments like these make me concerned that the general public has not learned its lesson on pandemics yet. It is far more concerning our destruction of the environment and our encroachment of habitats will lead to way more pandemics.
Houses built with wood will place the wood at regular intervals. Walls are usually built with the boards at 16 inch intervals while floors are usually 12 inches and roofs may be 12 inch or 24 depending on loading conditions.

In order to be able to type a house you need to know the multiples of 12 and 16 up to about 30 or 50 x 12.
I have seen it. My expectations were incredibly low and I have to say, it was better than I expected by a little but in my mind, still full on cringe.
Hi, yes, I assumed it would be the case. And it is not always easy to explain word terminations/cases. Especialy if you do not use it regularly or is limited to family interactions. I would guess your pronouncian might come from either some parts of Lika/Dalmatia or Bosnian part closer to Croatia. Is it the case?
You say that like it is a bad thing...

Mostly kidding, I grew up living at a rural property that had mint all over the place. I loved it, but I do understand how much trouble invasive plants can cause.
Also bought it and works great. Minor caveat is that it seems to be unable to get a 4K stream, so it’s capped to 1080p. Likely this is a YouTube limitation though.
When reading this I like to imagine the caveperson who made this pendant and how they would react to seeing entire teams of humans 40,000 years later using vast swathes of incredible space-age technology to analyze every microscopic detail of its creation.

Spending money on stuff that's valuable in itself is positive-sum. Spending money on stuff whose value is scarcity is zero-sum at best.
Does weaing a mask so often have downsides?

I'm not "anti-mask". I'm just wondering whether we will see studies in 10-20 years about a bunch of children with lung problems from restricted airflow or weird fibers or chemicals, or other pathogens that grew on the masks, or something we haven't thought of yet.

Or who knows? Maybe kids will all have super strong lungs. Or maybe lucky ones will have stronger lungs and others will suffer. I just don't know.

Anyone studying this (potential) issue?
The treaty would be great, if we forget and forgive some missteps of the WHO, besides this point. This is the single most important point. Who in the hell is going to actually enforce the treaty? Most of the UN security council are permanent members who all have some ideological bent against each other. Not to mention, the US doesn't really allow itself to be accountable to international courts. Why would any other country? An international treaty is only effective if it can be unilaterally enforced regardless of the offending country. Not saying the US is the only bad guy here, but I know for a fact the US doesn't abide by international courts. Chances are Russia and China might say the same.

On the contrary:

"If it’s in the public interest, the Commonwealth Government can intervene in these cases on the side of the defamed person against the social media company.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison said the government would proactively search for such cases to intervene in."

This likely mirrors what happened when we moved from analog to digital. CDMA versions of phones like the Motorola v60 came with pull out antennas and were still capable of latching on to analog signals. It would drain the battery pretty quickly, but it worked.

Most people, most of the time, were riding digital signals and their phones never saw analog, but yet it was still there. A few things came into play:

1) The CDMA chipset in the phone had analog capability, so it was basically "free" to utilize.

2) Analog signal still worked well in rural/mountainous areas where it carried better.

3) It was still in active use with regional carriers they had roaming agreements with.

My guess is that similar conditions are why it is still in play in today's phones.
Thanks, I remembered incorrectly.

Thanks. Licensing for tiny areas looks interesting.
This is mostly about drama around Boost Mobile. T-Mobile wanted to shut down their CDMA network on January 1, 2022. Boost (now owned by Dish) doesn't want to upgrade users that have handsets that don't work with VoLTE. Upgrading users involves sending them notices, giving them options of free handsets, shipping those handsets, getting the users to actually activate them, etc.

While T-Mobile gave Boost nearly double the required time, Boost complained that it wasn't enough and regulators don't like the idea of customers losing access. T-Mobile delayed the shutdown for three months to quell the situation.

Dish is notoriously cheap. They're supposed to be building out their own 5G network, but it's looking like they don't want to spend the money to do that. Dish has also been losing the wireless customers it acquired and so they might be souring a bit on the business.
It’s not hard to come up with solutions that seem likely to work (build a ton of new housing, tax unoccupied housing, etc). It’s hard to come up with solutions that seem likely to work and will be selected democratically by the voting populace.

This is true in general; it’s completely obvious how to end the COVID pandemic and stop global warming (universal vaccination and massive reduction in burning fossil fuels, respectively). But people will just not choose these obvious options.

If you can figure out why, and how to change that, you’ll have an incredible life ahead of you in politics.
>There's no reason you have to live at the ski areas.

For you maybe.

There is lots of good reasons to live there if it's your passion. As in, you expect to be on-hill three or more days a week. Not to mention: Just getting there before the crowds arrive is a game changer.
At my previous employer we got $4/hour for every hour on call outside normal business hours. So $64 per work day or $96 on a weekend or holiday or $512 for a typical week. Paid quarterly.

One of my reports pointed out that he made more from on call each year than the difference between an average and outstanding performance bonus. He wasn’t wrong.
Really the big one here, I feel, is the open sharing of information. This is probably the single most effective thing there is. Free and open information that anyone has access to. If there is one thing WHO should be, is an international database for medical researchers, advisers and professionals around the world.
Isn't this how epidemics normally end? A mild but very infectious variant becomes dominant, as part of the disease fading into the background à la the flu?
Not sure why this is downvoted. Given all the google hits for "transmissible viral vaccines", people have surely thought about it. I'd honestly be more surprised if people in power hadn't at least tried to look into the feasibility
This looks exciting. If anyone knows how to, perhaps they can report how much space this uses in the browser? Some benchmarks? Someday soon I hope we can use this for developing code on the browser to aid with web applications.

It's mostly a lot of creative (though crass) sexual innuendo.
>I've had windshield wipers not go as fast as I want them to. I do like automatic headlights though. Maybe you would prefer automatic blinkers too?

sounds artificial, you ultimately want a clear view, with least possible frequency of wipers. if automation works good, you don't need any settings, same as light.

>There are many cars with better traction over EVs. I think you're forgetting about the extra 1000lbs of weight batteries add. This is just blatantly wrong on so many levels. EV's can have good traction, but be realistic on this.

Nope, gas engine is limited by physics. It's the frequency you can adjust the torque. electric engine is just better suited for such task. Even with battery penalty which is improving little by little over time.

>On my cars with buttons I can change temp, airflow, etc without looking away from the road. With my EV/touchscreen car I need to look at the actual panel, which for me is downwards. Profile are rediculous. You've never been in a situation where it starts raining and the weather gets colder? If I have to click a screen to pull up another screen to change something, the UX is bad.

Yep, invention called climate control. You body doesn't like constant changes of temp. If it's get colder outside, a smart car adjust heat/cold automatically to the temp you like. if you really want to change your preferences, you're saying with voice "i'm cold" or "i'm hot" or how you want to adjust temp. Knobs, vents settings, adjusting air flow, that's not UX, it's just a tech limitation of the past.

>Do you watch movies while you're driving? You should stop

Nope, I can wait for someone while parked and watch a movie, so yeah. I can be a passenger and play game. I also do camping in the car. You know modern car is not only for driving from point a to point b :)

> I do appreciate how I can complete customize my touchscreen! Oh wait....

it's called settings :)

> You have to pay for a lot of these, upgrades also don't work out that great. Conversely, I would gladly pay to "upgrade" my vents to not be controlled through a touchscreen.

For the last upgrade i paid $115 including work, including service traveling to my home and hardware , they added a boombox speaker, to play sounds, that improve security of pedestrians, and adding some fun features. Software was already available. It's an official price, in one of the most expensive city in the world, New York, car company name is Tesla. There are other upgrades that doesn't cost you a lot.

>I don't leave important things like this in the car, so....

You required by the law to have some documents with you.
I used to grow blue-green algae (spirulina) in my window for consumption. If I remember correctly the blue color comes from anthocyanins, and it is now used as a blue food colorant. Perhaps I should start that project back up again?

Who knows. But we do have large parts of the world where wearing masks during cold season is normalized, without any massive evidence of adverse effect.
I’m very much concerned with our government funding gof research in a foreign and adversarial weapons laboratory. Stopping that research would be a very important lesson to learn in this pandemic because it might actually be able to stop the next covid 19.

I don’t think it’s unusual to say you can have calls on iPad with google voice or FT, or to assume people actually use phones for calls anymore. I use only VOIP applications and I wouldn’t have calling if it wasn’t cheaper to have a plan with calling with unlimited data.
Yes, when my wife or I were in the front passenger seat we would still need to stop the car in order to set a destination. It's also possible that the occupancy sensor was disabled as the rental car wasn't exactly in pristine condition.
Unless you're AT&T, then it takes a couple hours.
As written, the First Amendment restricts Congress, while the Second restricts at least all parties to the document, both Federal and State levels. Obviously, such plain readings aren't popular.
Healthy people will generally continue being fine. However, people who are at high risk have a new reason to be concerned. I'm not sure what you mean by 'how it's suppose to work'.
If the WHO actually prioritized "sharing information" over the political machinations of the Chinese government, you wouldn't have the spectacle of Bruce Aylward pretending to have technical difficulties when someone mentions the word 'Taiwan' on a call, and the fear of political oppression by committee would be a lot less credible.

This situation is, of course, a tragedy, but it is also what we have.

I'm sure plenty of authoritarian regimes would love to have information on all sorts of things that health agencies could be made to collect by treaty. How about just "travel?" Let's track the movement of every person from place to place. It's for the pandemic! It's definitely is not part of a surveillance apparatus meant to stifle dissent, not in the slightest.
It's like when apple said "Do you want to opt out of internet tracking?" and 90% of people said yes (rest were bots anyways). This is like saying "Do you want to opt out of us reading your conversations and selling everything you say?" Who wouldn't opt out, and it would only diminish saleable assets further. Ask a bank to loan money with no interest while at it.
That sounds like a feature rather than a bug.
All those points are taken out of context and are misleading.

Been looking through the Vail annual reports. In FY 2010 Season/Epic passes were 35% of ticket revenue, FY 2019 it was 47%, FY 2021 61%. I think your theory has legs.
There is no evidence that anything has changed. Moon et al. figure enough time has passed that they may resume the grift. Let's look at some of the top line items:

> They also point to conflicts over the lack of transparency and information sharing, particularly by China.

Right. The problem is not the actual lack of transparency but rather "conflicts over the lack of transparency." And no, I do not allow that NPR writers are somehow oblivious to the distinction; they mean exactly what is written.

> Some countries were accused of hoarding of medical supplies.

WHO shall decide how little medical supply the US is allowed to buy or keep.

> Then when vaccines were finally developed, poorer nations have complained that they weren't shared equitably.

WHO shall decide how long the US is made to wait for vaccine.

> A final concern, the experts say: The global response to the crisis is led by an underfunded World Health Organization that has no power to force any nation to do anything.

Give WHO more money. Give WHO more power. No assurances that performance will be any less abysmal are to be expected.

Should make a nice photo op when Biden signs it.
I don't want E2EE because I don't care at all whether or not Facebook has the plaintext of my chats, and I don't want to make any of the usability tradeoffs required for E2EE to work.
I feel like this argument is still in bad faith. A co-worker last year was talking about how a mask mandate was the biggest violation of freedom ever in American history. So I kindly reminded my co-worker, internment camps for Japanese-americans were less of a violation? Lincoln suspending Habeas Corpus during the civil war? Those are just two examples of many. These were all moves made by emergency powers that were...... given up by government when the situation ended.

Do you have more information on this (Hammond) effect and how to simulate?
One potential outcome of the treaty would be a reformation or replacement of WHO. I don’t know if there is political will to do that, or if it’s even a good idea. But something needs to be done, because when times got tough every country chose to “defect” instead of “cooperate”, even with their closest allies.
Very good point. It appears to many observers that it has been subverted by the Beijing regime, so any new initiatives are naturally going to be treated with suspicion by much of the free world.
Are they legally required to offer replacement phones? Or is it just customer retention?
Peak deaths lag peak new cases by 2 weeks. Given that testing takes some time (about a week?) deaths most usually lags infection by 3 weeks and in 90% of cases less than a month.

This is probably the most economical option. Semrush and Ahrefs have APIs that may be of interest, but they have a monthly subscription vs just purchasing credits.
Centralization is a surefire way to fail at pandemic response. You will necessarily be pressuring the wrong intervention measures on people who don't want them when they could stand to intervene in a better way for their own region and serve as a datapoint for the rest of the world to learn from.

You can't sacrifice the superior computational power of decentralized peoples acting in their best interest and substitute it with some truly wishful thinking that there will exist some superior knowledge that just needs centralized power in order to control a pandemic.
