Technically speaking, yes. But they're way off on the other side of the EM spectrum, giving them dramatically different properties. You can shield against radio with a shell of any conductive material -- even a wire mesh for longer wavelengths -- but X-rays are only absorbed by high-atomic-weight atoms, like lead.

My setup in the office is a screen dedicated to Outlook, a screen for my code, and a screen for documentation and chat.

I know some people in the office who made one or both of the side screens vertical, but that doesn't work for me. Vertical means I'm tilting my head or my eyes up and down which doesn't feel great. Also horizontal side monitors are in my peripheral vision, vertical side monitors extend too far up to be in my peripheral vision.

I wouldn't want my center monitor to be vertical because then I couldn't easily put code side-by-side. I'd need to take over one of the side monitors which then would mean looking between them requires looking off-center and with a gap from the bezels.
No democratic country is built to handle something like a pandemic. That much became clear the last two years. You need to be able to mandate strict laws that take away a lot of liberties that we have learn to consider as standard.

not true - infection rate grows sigmoidal and not exponential. that's why at the moment you can observe a stabilization despite few changes in regulation as of now compared to the summer. infection spread saturates periodically after suceptible clusters are depleted.

what would make sense is a steady and controlled Durchseuchung with specific protection of vulnerable people (like old and sick) - b/c the best immunity is gained by infection.

but Durchseuchung never sounded good - that's why that term got so popular. it sounds ugly and brutal. but it's what was happening all the time with many diseases in the past thousands of years.

CDK is absolutely brilliant. My eyes glaze over when I see lines and lines and pages and pages of CloudFormation/Terraform config... sometimes spread over multiple files and having to manually join them in them head to get the full view of the infrastructure.

But CDK reads so beautifully and gets rid of so much noise in these templates that I don't care about. Unfortunately... the devops people and those who hold they keys to cloud resources at my current company (and many other companies) are so all in on Terraform that most won't even consider CDK/Pulumi as an option despite the CDK/Pulumi paradigm being objectively better than CloudFormation/Terrform paradigm.
Me too, also other government mandated medical procedures like abortions, to combat the climate emergency!
This. People hate Meta/Zuck so much that they can't give credit for what was a brilliant rebrand.

Given that what makes a good brand is subjective perhaps a more objective measure is the value of the domains the companies rebranded to.

By this count Meta.com > ABC.xyz > Block.xyz. I'm basing this on data available via namebio.com, automated appraisal tools such as GoDaddy Appraisal and Estibot and thousands of hours of personal experience researching, buying and selling domains. Meta.com is worth six or more likely seven or even eight figures as a standalone domain. Block and ABC.xyz? Not so much.

Maslowski made that projection in 2007, a year when there was a huge drop in extent minimum over the previous year, and following successive years of lower minima before a recovery in 2008. He made the same mistake during the 2012 record minimum year (which is still the record minimum year), predicting ice free summers by 2016 if I recall correctly. He has since continued his research, but no longer makes these kinds of predictions.

So yes, sometimes there are overly aggressive projections and or outright mistakes, and on top of that there is hyperbole with the media going for the most extreme headline possible. But the fact that some predictions are overly aggressive doesn't mean the situation isn't serious. All trends based on measurement (not projection) are showing the cryosphere is in serious trouble. Glaciers are melting, permafrost is turning out to be not so "perma".
Such a relief to live in Sweden. No one is pretending to wear masks and we're doing just fine. If i wasn't reading the news i wouldn't even know there was a pandemic.

> This is in stark contrast with ARMv7's thumb, which was a literal separate CPU mode.

This is disingenuous. arm32's Thumb-2 (which has been around since 2003) supports both 16-bit and 32-bit instructions in a single mode, making it directly comparable to RV32C.

This is a really cool simulation. It makes me wonder if it maybe possible to somehow compromise these droplets mid-air to disable the virus before it reaches a host.
The vaccines were never proven to reduce virus spread, were they? I mean, the clinical trials were about reducing susceptibility, not infectivity. I don't think there were any numbers available on the vaccine's effect on virus transmissibility. It was implicitly assumed that fewer symptoms would translate to fewer transmissions, but was this ever proven?

Point being, we didn't know what vaccination rate would reduce the R-value below 1, and FAFAIK we still don't know. Not even for the original Sars-cov-2 virus, and not for any of the variants.
You must not be from a former communist country. The system worked for two-three decades during the initial industrialization phase. When that phase ended growth was hard to find (the whole system was based around factories and moving villagers to cities). That's when the numbers started going down and the system started faking numbers to give the appearance that all is well and nobody could disagree with them.

At a country level (not talking about Amazon) these systems are fragile and don't handle volatility well.

> Studies coming out that people who survived severe covid had over twice the risk of dying within the next year.

I'm curious how those studies would disentangle the effect of "COVID damages your health, and severe COVID damages your health more so you're more likely to die in the next year" from the effect of "if you are in worse general health, a COVID infection is more likely to be severe, and also you are more likely to die in the next year". Even if you try to control for factors like age, sex, smoker vs nonsmoker, BMI, etc etc you're likely to miss something. But maybe they did something clever with their control group that serves as a good proxy for "people who would have had severe covid and survived, but didn't get infected".

I'm interested to see which study you're referring to.
The death rate in Sweden is more like 2x higher (1.3% vs 0.6% for the other countries) [1], since its population is double the other countries. Still signficantly worse than its Nordic neighbors, though.

EDIT: I stand corrected - I confused the case-fatality-rate number with the mortality rate, which is much worse for Sweden than its neighbors.

My guess is that obesity plays a bigger role than many people realize.
Perhaps obese people who are vaccinated are still at a substantially elevated risk?
This also explains why Africa is doing pretty well in terms of low casualties: Young people and fewer obese.
That's irrelevant. I'm talking about what's changed since the pandemic began.
I’m sorry you are a racist.

How does your racism cause you to equate welfare Queen with black woman? I’d have thought that was more connected to the media using it that way.
Sorry to hijack the thread here. Why is your prediction that IBM gives up "hybrid multi-cloud"? Isn't hybrid multi-cloud exactly aligned with the future that you are portraying here (sans IBM's bet on k8s, which we could have another debate on) that what runs on top of cloud infrastructure will be available across multiple clouds?

Disclaimer: I work for IBM, and my opinions are my own.
Fully agree on column limit. I don’t have a hard limit set, but when I start to need to scroll horizontally on a file in a dual-pane 2560x1440 setup, it forces me to refactor things out into dedicated variables and functions, reduce nesting, reducing chaining, etc. On an ultrawide I think things would quickly get out of hand.
X86 doesn't have to go to microcode to have multiple uOPs for an instruction. Most uarchs can spit out three or four uOPs per instruction before having to resort to the microcode ROM. Basically instructions that would only need one microcode ROM row in a purely microcoded design can be spit out of the fast decoders.

> What is the breakdown of unvaxxed/vaxxed in hospital admissions and deaths?

85.6% of hospitalized in Denmark are either unvaccinated or "half vaccinated". See https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/aa41b29149f24e20a40... graph 2.

This means that if the vaccination rate grew from 90% to 100% the hospitalized number would drop to very manageable levels.

Even with a 90% fully vaccinated population, the remaining 10% are still enough to fill up the hospitals.
They'll be fine if they focus on their microarchitectures rather than the ISA (where IMHO they've already lost), and make the process for obtaining a license much more streamlined; I've heard it takes no less than 18 months of long negotiations to license anythin from ARM. That's not sustainable now that there's competition.
Implied volatility is typically overpriced compared to realized volatility. Theta Gang strategy is selling risk premium on stocks - cash secured puts/covered calls, wheel strategies. If you stick to stocks you’d like to hold for long periods of time, the downside risk is limited.
ARM64 has cbz/tbz compare-and-branch instructions that cover many common cases in a single 4-byte instruction as well.
I visited at the end of eighties a research institute in a former USSR. They had a whole room with computers put in a Faraday cage to prevent any data leaks with supposedly secret information. The cage was a mesh made of thin metal sheets with 1mm holes. As I remember the whole thing was done seriously, not a fake to please some inspector. It had double doors, all cables were put into metal tubes, all lights were outside I suppose to minimize the cabling.
Incredible statistic, would love to see the source on this
DuckDuckGo isn’t really a search engine, it’s a website that uses bing’s api.

That’s wrong information.

Twice-vaccinated people will have to get a booster shot and there are discussions about a six month expiry date if you don’t get the booster shot.

What happens beyond that we do not know right now since can’t look into the future. We do not know how effective the booster will be in terms of long-term protection.

All of that is not surprising. A bit annoying but not surprising.

> RISC-V is in fact the outlier among ISAs in many of these design decisions, so there's a heavy burden of proof to demonstrate that making the contrary decisions in many cases was the right call.

Genuinely asking, why? Do we think RISC-V should, or even could, try to compete against the AMD/Intel/ARM behemoths on their playing field? Obviously ISAs are a low level detail and far removed from the end product, but it feels like the architectural decisions we are "stuck with" today are inextricably intertwined with their contemporary market conditions and historical happenstance. It feels like all the experimental architectures that lost to x86/ARM (including Intel's own) were simply too much too soon, before ubiquitous internet and the open source culture could establish itself. We've now got companies using genetic algorithms to optimize ICs and people making their own semiconductors in the 100s of microns range in their garages - maybe it's time to rethink some things!

(EE in a past life but little experience designing ICs so I feel like I'm talking out of my rear end)
The one thing I would ask this person is how big and complex a system they've built like this.

Because if you optimize all the slack out of a system, you have no room to manoeuvre. In this case, you need to update all your code and dbs all at once if any type changes. Because it's all linked.

In my experience this is not feasible one you reach a certain size. You need to be able to upgrade parts in isolation while keeping the majority working without touching it.

For every disclosed HIPAA violation, there are at least 10x the number of violations that go unnoticed and unreported. When you give data to a hospital or clinic, it is being shared in unredacted form with third parties that have signed Business Associate Agreements with the healthcare provider. There is no oversight or concrete regulation that comes with a BAA, there is no "HIPAA inspection" similar to an OSHA or FDA surprise inspection, while the ramifications of leaking your health data have become far more consequential (to the point that you might need to pay into the Experian protection racket when it happens).

I didn't miss any part of that statement.

Everything I stated is factual, and I insinuated nothing else.

The person I was replying to clearly inferred that vaccinated individuals don't infect others, and that's dangerously wrong.

As for schools requiring vaccines, there is a lot to take issue with there - mRNA vaccines are different, with no long term data, for a different virus. The mandated vaccines don't require biannual top ups, and are for viruses that actually threaten children themselves - school agechildren have a near-zero mortality risk form COVID.

But the fact remains, regardless of all the weeds we could get into there, and NY state law notwithstanding, **human beings have a fundamental right to not be forced into medical treatment**.

As I said, civil liberties groups have written on this at length, and been largely ignored. I think ignoring them requires a level of stupidity bordering on evil.
