I’m comparing the numbers from the DIVI registry:

2020-12-02: https://edoc.rki.de/handle/176904/7522
2021-12-02: https://edoc.rki.de/handle/176904/9047

I’m getting 24,949 beds for today, 27,543 as the year ago number (in both cases including a couple thousand ICU beds for kids which were later split out in the more current DIVI reports since ICU beds for kids aren’t helpful for this pandemic).

That’s a difference of 2,594.

Also, as the DIVI themselves explain: “Consequently, several factors play a role in influencing the number of beds that can be operated. A deliberate reduction of beds during the pandemic cannot be assumed. The reduction in available beds can be explained by the various points mentioned above, among others, and is supported by other data collected. The decisive factor for the operability of a bed is the medical staff.”

This is under a FAQ entry where they list five different reasons for the reduction in capacity: https://www.intensivregister.de/#/faq/18af7107-e098-43e7-a9f...

Staff themselves being affected by COVID-19 and becoming unable to work is just one of them.

The others are changes in how much staff is allocated per patient (this was increased), hospitals being more precise in their reporting and only reporting beds that can actually be staffed, changes in the criteria for a bed to be actually countable and the high effort ICU therapy of COVID-19 patients requires.

So this person found a pathological case for the RISC-V instruction set?
My workflow is:

- text editor with two columns in the middle

- terminal with two colums on the right, left is git, right is build

- terminal on the left for connecting to production, investigating things, and manual testing

I also have a web browser (which contains chat and email) in the middle that I can swap to, but that means no coding.

I've heard that a lot of people like to have a browser to look at documentation at the same time as they code, but I haven't really found this useful, in large part because most of the code I work with has no documentation (the code itself is the documentation).

They specifically say: “Our study does not provide information on infectiousness.”

That said, if people are equally infections while sick, but their sick for a shorter period then their less likely to infect others.

In fairness, this is Hacker News; flame wars^w^w respectful but intense debate over editors, operating systems, and, yes, ISA details, is somewhat expected. (Although, yes, I'm not sure that I would get too worked up about this particular detail; even if the stated claim is 100% true and unmitigated, it means some kinds of code will have potentially bigger binaries. I understand a math library person caring, I don't think I care.)
I don't think so; most of the users I know of for the integer side of GMP are compilers/runtimes. An apt rdepends on the gmp packages in Ubuntu only shows stuff like ocaml, and I know gcc vendors it.

Edit: Another place you see this kind of arthimetic is crypto, but those specific use cases (Diffie Hellman, RSA, a few others) don't tend to be vectorized. You have one op you're trying to work through with large integers, and there's the carry dependency on each partial op. The carry depdent crypto algorithms aren't typically vectorisable.
Everyone with strong passions on a topic feels like the mods are against them, the moment they see any sign of a post that they agree with getting moderated.

https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...

In reality, we ban accounts that do ideological flamewar from the other side in just the same way, and they feel like we're just as biased against them. They agree that we're terrible human beings though!

The striking thing is how the passionate partisans and ideologues resemble each other more than they resemble the rest of us. They see each other as bitter enemies, yet from my perspective they're close to isomorphic. (Edit: no, that's not a centrist defense of the squishy middle ground. It doesn't work that way.)

It is a paper from the US military detailing research on how to better run troll farms. It's pretty clear that they are actually running troll farms. Then from the same place that the research was taking place, unusually high traffic into Reddit was found. There is literally no better evidence you will ever get except for Milley coming out and saying "We are running troll farms".

JTRIG operated in alliance with the US at least two time that we know of for Iran and Afghanistan.
I have a suspicion that ICU training for a COVID specific nurse could be much shorter - if there were any will or basic common fucking sense among policy makers, and if there were fewer people making excuses for those who ghoulishly and cynically privatized healthcare for profit across the Western world.

They sometimes put "organism" in quotes, which I think is important. A far as I can tell, these aren't bona fide organisms, but appropriated tissue that has been treated in some way to incidentally behave in useful ways, sort of like if I sliced out your bicep and modified it somehow to flap about and therefore "walk" across the room.

The argument for RISC instructions (in high performance architectures) is that the faster decode makes up for the increase in instruction count. The problem is that a faster decode has a practical ceiling on how much faster it's going to make your processor, and it's much lower than 3x. If your workload is bottlenecked on an inner loop that got 3x larger in instruction count, no 15% improvement in decode performance is going to save you.
That's only partially true for Typescript and requires a lot of discipline.

TS is continuously getting better, but it's still possible to lose type safety with some constructs without the compiler warning you about it at all.

The third party typings for JS dependencies are also often not a 100% correct, especially for rare code paths and edge cases.

And due to how easy it is to fall back to any, there are also Typescript native libraries that don't uphold the guarantees they seem to give.

Typescript is great, but it's far from bullet proof, and it's extremely frustrating to deal with bugs that the type system supposedly should have prevented.
I bet a lot of people would sign up to pay lower premiums in exchange for not having their data be private. I probably would too depending on how much cheaper.

How did you and a whole bunch of other people apparently hear "95% efficacy against severe disease" and somehow decide that meant "100% efficacy against infection"?
You're conflating Western leftism with liberalism. Wikipedia defines liberalism as "a political and moral philosophy based on liberty, consent of the governed and equality before the law." [1]. Liberals are interested in individual rights and often are opposed to collectivist ideas such as those espoused by state socialists. Your position on global consensus is a more collectivist perspective, not necessarily a liberal perspective.

> We as a global society _need_ to agree to be productive. We need to work together to find the best solutions for as many people as possible.

I'm not sure how familiar you are with the history, but the process of forming a government is often _very difficult_. Even forming governments in relatively small geographic areas is difficult; Europe went through centuries of warfare before it settled on its current set of governments. The aftermath of colonialism has created terrible tensions in Africa and the Middle East which is making it terribly difficult for governments to form in those regions.

What you're asking for, to agree on broad sets of things to be productive, is essentially to form some form of limited government across the world. We're not even close. The UN routinely makes resolutions that are ignored by member states. Many countries still oppose the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights. I highly suggest you spend some time reading about, and if possible or safe, traveling in parts of the world with very different cultures than your own (again if it's safe, which can be challenging for certain demographics :( ). There's a lot of diversity in human thought.

> My opinion is that he had a gun he shouldn't have had, was in a place he shouldn't have been, causing trouble he shouldn't have been involved in, and killed two people who shouldn't have died.

He had a gun he had a right to have, in a place he had a right to be, at a protest that he had a right to be involved in as much as the protesters, and killed two people rightfully in self defense. What's the problem here? If people don't want to be killed, I would recommend they don't chase down an armed man and imminently threaten his life.
Well there you go, Wikipedia confirms that IP = PSPACE, and furthermore that if some assumptions hold about one-way functions, then zero knowledge IP = IP = PSPACE.

My biggest gripe with Chrome isn’t so much its tracking (though that’s not great either) but rather that for Google, efficiency is a ghost of an afterthought and all engineer time goes into pumping out shiny new web features to woo devs.

Only OS maintainers seem to give two hoots about efficiency… Google and Mozilla see no issue with turning your laptop into a battery destroying space heater, and the impact of Google’s part in this is outsize with every other app being built with Electron.

Right now in my province, unvaccinated individuals make up 11.2% of 12+ population but more than 66% of hospitalizations. I don't expect the ICU rates to be more favourable to the unvaccianted than total hospitalization rates. If there is a point of rapid diminishing returns, it is not at ~90% yet.

It will be interesting to see a comparison on power-efficiency as well as performance. RISC-V implementations have shown a pretty sizeable advantage wrt. power use in the past, and we don't quite know how this advantage compares in these larger, performance-focused designs.

Amazon and Coolblue reviews have been decent for me. With Amazon, the nice thing is that even if there aren't any reviews on your local Amazon, it will show reviews from other countries' Amazons with the option to translate. Combine that with professional review sites like Rtings or The Wirecutter and you can usually get a decent idea.

There isn't any scientific explanation for "incarnation", let alone "reincarnation". There is still no explanation for how a chemical reaction controlled by persuasive spirals results in "experience", is there?

Anyways: I accept Kant's argument for the evaluation of philosophical maxims ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorical_imperative
"Act only according to that maxim whereby you can, at the same time, will that it should become a universal law."

... and it seems that one can adopt any maxim as guidance for one's behaviour, so I choose to take as a maxim:
There is only one "subject" of reality, and that subject seems to be experiencing itself via this particular meatsack known as "me". Anything "I" can do to improve that experience via another meatsack known as "somebody else" is worth doing, because it is the very same "subject" experiencing that act. "Karma" means "action", because any action taken is experienced through another be-ing.

The truth of this is irrelevant, in the "will that it should become a universal law" sense: if everyone acted in this way, seeing each and every being as another aspect of their self, then we surely would all have fewer problems. That's how the categorial imperative applies.

To resort to argument by authority, there's always this:

"The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself." ­— Carl Sagan

I don't always (or even most of the time) follow this, because I'm not sure that the "universal law" makes sense when surrounded by self-centred automatons, so I resort to an even higher authority, Douglas Adams:

Slartibartfast: Perhaps I'm old and tired, but I think that the chances of finding out what's actually going on are so absurdly remote that the only thing to do is to say, "Hang the sense of it," and keep yourself busy. I'd much rather be happy than right any day.

Arthur Dent: And are you?

Slartibartfast: Ah, no. Well, that's where it all falls down, of course.
There is a gray area. I know a couple who live in SF who don't have a car. (They actually have a parking space but they sublet it.) They take muni some although my observation when I visit is that they use a lot of Zipcars, regular rentals, deliveries, and Ubers.

One of the things that's probably true as well is that many people adjust their lifestyle to what's convenient. If you need to rent a car to go somewhere on the weekend, you probably tend to favor other activities.
(RISC-V fan here) This is a real-world use case. GMP is a library for handling huge integers, and adding two huge integers is one of the operations it performs, and the way to do that is to add-with-carry one long sequence of word-sized integers into another. It's not synthetic; it's extremely specialized, but real.
Great even more reboots.

You need to broaden your view from American political culture. Conservatives exist in many different types of governments and many different cultures. This explanation makes no sense.
4 is just 1. Compromise inherently involves both parties giving something up. That only works for up to N parties. You can't achieve stable compromise with everyone ever because you have parties that are not rectifiable.

You could also read 4 as an example of 3. If you are going to force someone to say yes by social pressure or threatening to burn down their house, that's still authoritarian.

I work with the KDE virtual desktops grid with a 3x2 arrangement and wrap around on a 32" curved screen. I've found it very useful to put the same windows in the same grid squares and have hotkeys to easily go between. I know exactly the keystrokes ahead of time to get to the window I want and don't have to move my neck to get there. I can tile them, since I've got plenty of space on the one large screen, but usually the 6 virtual desktops are good enough. I've tried multiple monitors before, but couldn't get into it.

In the Waldo example, if Bob has watermarked the back of the puzzle and Alice shows him the cutout Waldo, what prevents Bob from comparing the portion of the watermark on the back of the cutout Waldo (provided by Alice) with the original watermark (say Bob chose the watermark to be a grid of cells where each cell is trivially identifiable and small enough to be contained on the back of the cutout), thus deriving Waldo’s location?
That’s still pretty fast.

... and this is where the analogy breaks down...
A recent submission[0] makes me think politicians, media and so-called TV experts should refrain from promising things that are misleading, deceiving and may have disastrous results in the short future. Vaccination shouldn't mean giving up on basic measures, but I believe it has been broadly advertised as such in this current year with, in a personal conclusion of mine, devastating results. In a few countries (such as Italy) in an ironic twist unvaccinated individuals were significantly more monitored due to mandatory testing every 48hrs for any work, while new spread and emerging variants seem to close the gap in transmission between vaccinated and unvaccinated people, as everyone minded their own business in overcrowded public transportation, gatherings et cetera. As others have mentioned in this discussion, hospitals and health services must still tend to a large pool of vaccinated people (significant majority of population in Western countries) that require medical attention and can overwhelm systems in place.

Even if everyone in these countries that are rolling third doses did get wholly vaccinated in a short amount of time to attempt to halt transmission in its tracks, the majority of the world where some of the latest VoCs originated (Delta, Omicron) are largely unprotected.

Everyone wants this to end but most people are also led to believe, willingly or not, something as basic as a vaccination will bring everything back to normal. It doesn't, it hasn't so far, has it?

> The CDC themselves state that viral load is similar in fully vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals.

You missed a pretty important bit of that statement.

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/variants/delta-var...

> However, like prior variants, the amount of viral genetic material may go down faster in fully vaccinated people when compared to unvaccinated people. This means fully vaccinated people will likely spread the virus for less time than unvaccinated people.

As for transmission, the CDC actually says the vaccines do help here. (Not stop, but reduce.) https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/keythings...

> And yes, people have the right to refuse medical treament; that's a human right.

Most states in the US require a variety of vaccinations to enter public school. New York requires it even for private/religious schooling (https://www.health.ny.gov/prevention/immunization/schools/sc...). Measles, DTaP, polio, etc. have widespread existing requirements predating COVID.

Ask HN: Audio-based content creation?
I was reading how someone made 6-figures PER DAY making Excel videos (https://www.theverge.com/22807858/tiktok-influencer-microsoft-excel-instagram-decoder-podcast) and started wondering if creators would benefit from having a platform where they could create content centered around audio.

Speech-to-text (STT): All your words are transcribed in real-time. This supports foreign languages as well. You can even edit the text in-place while you speak.

Text-to-speech (TTS): Supply the text and receive an mp3 audio file with a voice that sounds like yours reading the text. This also supports different languages.

This could be used to create video courses more easily, or add personal flavor to your blog posts. Whether it's teaching React or talking about any topic you're interested in, your voice dictates the creative process.
Western MSM narrative is Lithuania standing up to PRC. But reality is Lithuania and other NATO baltic buffer states with little trade with PRC trying to assert relevancy to US foreign policy after US retreat/pivot to Asia. US rewarding Lithuania with 600M in export credits as agent for US interest of elevating TW status in EU, and Taiwan rewarding Lithuania laser industry with preferential contracts for TSMC.

EU reaction over PRC always mixed. EU parliament likes to signal over human rights, EU commission more pragmatic, and so far large EU countries like France, Germany, Italy have been quiet / doesn't appreciate small countries like Lithuania starting shit on behalf of US interests that undermine their interests. Overall clever self-interested play by Lithuania foreign policy.

TLDR for background, PRC downgrading Lithuania diplomatic relationship over opening "Taiwan" instead of "Taipei" representative office (defacto embassy), which contravenes PRC interpretation of One China Policy. Now trade shenanigans of which there isn't much between PRC and Lithuania.
