> then that's on them for attacking, not on us for responding.

and if the other party applies this same reasoning to your response? if your epistemics are at all self-consistent, then after the escalation you’re responsible for the negative impact on about half of all the lives impacted. the easy out you present is just self delusion.
Great article. My father has a full harpsichord in his living room. Growing up, he and my mother would have friends over every week to play string quartet and classical music. In fact, that's how they met. My mother went to a party where he was playing viola. On their second date, he baked her a cake shaped like the bust of Bach. Game over!

I wonder what's your evidence of implying China's restoration is poor or bad.

Restoration in the forbidden City has been remarkable. https://youtu.be/avrRiNUmOlY it clearly has kept its original style and sentiment.
I listened this morning. Great interview, thank-you. Refreshing to hear someone with both an honest appraisal of their skill set (although perhaps a little too hard on himself) and also a willingness to make drastic changes for a happier life rather than just playing it safe.
Am I crazy or did we not use hemp ropes for fishing before we invented plastics?

Put fish tariffs on any country who doesn't use hemp rope for fishing.
Have you got any views on whether Avalonia might have legs?
As of like 2 months ago, sure. And even then it's still in beta now. We've been using Macs this way since long before Apple decided to grace us with their nonsense implementation.

Right, but the point is you still need more ICU capacity.

The analogy is “every house has sprinklers so no need for a fire department any more”.
Can't say we promote that anywhere though.

Did he rise to a high rank? Became a thought leader? He was reprimanded, and he considered according to him that he just did his job and nothing really (that is to his credit perhaps). I didn't see him getting a Nobel peace prize either, and it seemed it was the west that celebrated this years after he was retired his heroic decision.
What space plane does the US have? What counts as a drone? Satellites can be steered, are those drones? The article states that Russia is trailing US spy satellites with their own. You make no sense.
Forcing the rendering engine upon a browser manufacturer is just "cost of doing business" on iOS. It does not have as negative consequences as forcing an entire browser upon a user (like Microsoft is doing). Chrome on iOS can still do pretty much everything it wants, including telemetry, sync etc. The users are ensured to get a browser with a rendering engine that is carefully optimized for performance and battery life by the phone manufacturer, so I'd argue the user is actually better off.

Had this experience with several series on Netflix recently. It seems correlated to shows that also do a lot of really dark scenes where the screen looks nearly black. I really don't get it.
If you can substantiate your claims they would be interesting.
I have two 27" monitors and got a webcam between them. It works well if you aren't bothered by the hard border between monitors.
I dropped in to a local clinic this week to get my booster (no appointment, even) and was given the shot in about 15 minutes. Most of the other people there waiting looked relatively young. Seems that we're doing a terrible job of reaching out to the elderly to get them their boosters. Or they just don't want it.
A computer in another country is running SSH brute-force attempts and random port scans (which hit pretty much every IPv4 address at least once an hour) - quick, ask for several more billions in funding and claim Russia/China is behind it - your wish will be granted without a second thought.

You should get rid of your car and stop interfering with the life of an adorable sentient rats, their friends, family, coworkers as well as with their pet spiders, flies, worms, fleas and mosquitoes.

They been here first and deserve to live their life in the way they want and occupy places they want.

It absolutely unacceptable for any filthy capitalist car owner to interfere with little furry rats.
Thanks for listening!

I found his take on his skillset tragic. It's a downside of working with the best of the best, that you feel your own inadequacies very directly.

Perhaps if I had started out at a place like the OS team at Apple right out of school I would have left software engineering behind as well.
> people have been moving large quantities of food around without plastics for millennia

There absolutely have not been food supply chains for millennia that looked anything even remotely close to what has been enabled by modern sanitation and global shipping, in big ways enabled by plastics. For millennia the norm was malnutrition and risks of starvation whenever food was out of season locally.

I don’t know how you think eating a plant based diet is possible without plastic in a northern climate in winter.

And if you think food waste is a problem now, wait until supply chains can’t store food in airtight oxygen free environments or how many forests will have to be cut down to use wood instead of plastic or how much shipping fuel usage will increase when packaging that used to weigh grams is replaced with metal that weighs 1000x as much.

That probably?
Rockets and spaceplanes are not the only threat model. We build commercial satellites that have to contend with jamming attacks and other intentional interference. I'm not one to carry water for the military industrial complex - they hype up threats for more money all the time (see: Hypersonics) - but I can assure you that these attacks are occurring right now.
welcome to you're an idiot list.
>A space force general is not "one guy saying"

Yeah it was probably the CIA or another similarly reputable agency[0] that actually made the report.

While I don't disagree with what you are saying in the abstract, there are limits and the demands really should be rational.

I don't see that with this series of vaccines. They do not stop transmission. The ICU issue cannot be addressed fairly without addressing the other causes that put large numbers of people in ICUs.

We pay every year as a society in deaths for the assumption of some risk. We manage it, make laws, or just leave it alone and some people die (for example, we don't ban cars or eating too many calories or swimming pools).

In my estimation we are going a bit overboard demanding everyone take a novel injection, most especially when it appears the health authorities either didn't understand or didn't communicate the effectiveness over time of the injections.

There's a point were everything can't be all about what someone at the top proclaims is for the social good. Otherwise we wind up in corruption and dictatorship.
A bit of an aside to the exact article, but it makes me think about all the software attacks that might be made on satellites. It's kind of like they have an open port, small deployment, and no way to physically reset the machine. It seems inevitable that they have many serious and exploitable security flaws...
That's my mistake then, if it still allowed me to edit the comment I would do so to make that more clear.
Preventing timing leaks requires unsafe code because the Rust compiler lacks support for constant-runtime code [0]. Adding that support is one step in making it "good enough to use for everything".

What are several more of the "plenty of reasons to occasionally use unsafe code"? I can think of only one: interfacing with hardware or unsafe OSes that control access to the hardware.

This is money spent by a search engine not money collected from websites. People don’t ever want to be sent to a domain parking landing page for example.

More abstractly SEO is inherently a problem for search engines. Algorithms have no inherent way to separate clusters of websites setup to fake relevance from actually relevant websites. Personally I would exclude Quora from all search results, but even getting to the point your trying to make that kind of assessment is extremely difficult in the modern web. Essentially the minimum threshold for usefulness has become quite high which is a problem as Google continues to degenerate into uselessness.
Awesome, I love codesandbox. Thank you
What I really like about all these different threads and topics on COVID is the mastery of control that is shown. We have viable treatments that work and could be prescribed en masse. Not discussed, not mentioned. The sole discussion topic is "vaccines" and mask theatre. Totally ignoring any inconvenient data about either.

Everyone's focus is to tear each other apart about which level of destruction is best for the non-vaxed. They are the problem and need to be crushed. Just excellent demonstration of media control and emotional manipulation.

Here we see the Germans following the leaders of human rights: China, Austria, Australia in preparing further legal frameworks to make the non-vaxed into non-people. Their futures will be fines, imprisonment and hopefully their lives permanently ruined. With cheers from the vaxxed.

After this we will be imprisoning or maybe just hanging from lampposts those who don't get enough boosters. For the safety of the children.
Do you, though? I see lots of numbers around hospitalizations, but how many (vaccinated) people hospitalized end up in the ICU?
Not only it's real, it's how half of the nukes worldwide are made.

Used to work for internet video game companies at the infrastructure level. We were constantly under attack. I mean, out of 40 Gbps of bandwidth on internet spread over multiple data centers, a good percentage was just pure hacks and attacks.

I can't imagine to drop our firewalls, ips and all of the security gears we had for few seconds. The knowledge built to reach this level of maturity in internet security was several years of man power.

I'm not sure how bad are the attacks against the space force, but I suspect it's slightly higher than any other normal high profile entities on internet.

They probably deserve a good shake. Let's give them a good shake, shall we?
Isn't this rather a security theater for the more naive prospective buyers? Even if the device is verified to comply with high-level schematics, it still may not comply on the micro-level. There is the problem with all modem chips being able to access/control phone memory and being potentially controllable by the mobile network operator. How are we going to verify this vulnerability has been removed?

> The issue with centralized authorities that has to be mitigated somehow is that, once they appear, they tend to accumulate more and more power, and inevitably become a bad actor eventually, even if originally they weren't intending to.

Which is why we have a democracy so that rulers don't have to worry about getting killed in a rebellion and people can choose a new ruler when corruption gets bad enough.

This of course means that corruption tends towards the highest people can tolerate. So if you see corrupt politicians it is because people tolerate it, if they wanted they could vote them out but people as a group don't care enough to actually do the work necessary to do so. However if corruption grew large enough as you fear then people would start caring and things would change rather quickly.
Sit with your butt on the edge of your chair (don't use the back rest at all) ... Your back will be naturally straight and your core muscles will gain endurance. I learned this by using an exercise ball as a chair for six months.
There is also a cultural element though. The laws and regulations may encourage corrupt behaviour, but if there was a strong cultural expectation that the most upstanding people go into government to serve their communities - and if that were actually who was attracted to the role - that wouldn't matter all that much.
In a sense, yes - but even after adjusting to glasses for 20+ years I still find it far more fatiguing than working without glasses.

The are one of 15 companies that has an architectural license, which is the most flexible type of license. I don't think the details of the license are public (not even all 15 of the licensees are known). They were also an initial investor in ARM, so I suppose it is conceivable that they still own a small portion of it, together with SoftBank, although that seems unlikely.
yeah i remember that feature. was amazing!
SEO wars are at least part of it. Google's algorithm has evolved over time not just top optimize advertising views/clicks and take over more screen space, but also to battle the constant gamification of their algorithm by SEO that, once you eventually get to the real results, will surface less relevant/spammy/scammy etc results if Google doesn't constantly push back against the worst SEO abusers.
And nobody knows what else!

The classic ones that I'm familiar with are bakeries.

For example - https://justdane.org/just-bakery/

A recent article from NPR https://www.npr.org/2021/11/23/1056856357/former-inmates-are...

Another bakery from a bit ago - https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/04/15/469942932/th...

One that is more on the farming skills - https://www.npr.org/2021/09/17/1037594879/this-prison-teache... and another one - https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/local/wisconsin/2017/08/... and then for youth https://doc.wi.gov/Pages/AboutDOC/JuvenileCorrections/GrowAc... -- though these are more about teaching while incarcerated rather than jobs once they're out.

Even aside from the "do they accept charity or donation" the thing to do is to look at having your place of employment to say... get bagels from Just Bakery or have get pizza from Down North Pizza to continue to support the community and the people working at such jobs.

I'd also check with the state DWD (or equivalent) - Department of Workforce Development. They're often part of the set of departments that work to reduce recidivism and may have suggestions for either "these companies employ ex-convicts" so that you can help by patronizing them along with "these organizations help with reentry" - and that would be an opportunity for donations.

For that example - https://dwd.wisconsin.gov/press/2019/190403_new_hope_frostma... and https://dwd.wisconsin.gov/press/210729-reecc-job-center.htm
> As long as the R value is above 1 the spreading is exponential

No, this is only true if the R value is constant in time. Not all functions with a positive first derivative are the exponential function.
I mean, i just took that study from the Wikipedia page on long covid.

What you linked may be valid, but so far has zero citations and various critical discussion going on in the comments. Is this already published at all or is it a preprint?

I don't have enough time or knowledge to assess the validity of the claims, but based on that, the study I found on Wikipedia seems more trustworthy to me.

I hadn't used gigablast before, but a quick test had it find some very old, obscure stuff, as the top hit. Well done. However, the link on the front page to explain privacy.sh comes up with "Not Private" in Chrome. The root Cisco Umbrella CA cert isn't trusted. Oops.
Yet still the toll this is taking on the doctors and nurses in Czech hospitals is so sad. And to add insult to injury hardly anyone from the outside thanks them anymore & the antivaxers they often take care about are often very rude or even aggressive - often literally on deaths bed.
Semantically, it may be so. In practice, I fail to see how there would be a difference. If you are not presumed innocent and the burden of proof lies with you is that not the same as a presumption of guilt?

Plastics are necessary. Just as cars and airplanes are necessary to civilization. Cellphones and computers are also necessary. I just got a life saving operation two months ago. None of these things would be possible without plastics.

Civilizations grow on top of their earlier innovations and we can't just go back to the way things were without a collapse. How do you think the cell phone in your pocket could possibly be made without plastic? Or how about the Starship?

Someone in their marketing run a survey of which brand is more trusted and they are playing on that card. The question would be did the survey cover both consumers and enterprise users as I think the answers to these would be different.

It's not quite that easy. Have you ever tried it? See my post below. Basically, yes, I've done it, but i had to go through a lot and was lucky enough to even get them to listen to me. I just happened to know the right person to get me through. So, super lucky there.
Furthermore, they have an AI that takes you off the whitelist if it sees your bot 'misbehave', whatever that is. So if you have a certain kind of bug in your spider, or your bot 'misbehaves', whatever that means is anyone's guess, then you're going to get kicked off the list. So then what? You have to try to get on the whitelist again? They have Bing and Google on some special short lists so those guys don't have to sweat all these hurdles.
Lastly, their UI and documentation is heavily centered around Google and Bing, so upstart search engines aren't getting the same treatment.
Do you have a link to anything published about the prosecution of the arsonists? I can’t seem to find anything.
Too bad, your way of emotion driven arguments about the real problems the world faces is the threat to solving them and I am unapologetic for my hostility towards that attitude.

If these problems are going to be solved, they will be by people who can survive and continue to engage with people that think their ideas are stupid. There are a lot of bad ideas out there and if we have to coddle them we’ll end up in exactly the echo chambers we already suffer from. Only willingness to be around people that disagree with you to the point they think you’re crazy and not take your toys and go home because people aren’t nice about your opinions is going to enable actual progress.
> Environmentalists have always favored ideology over effectiveness.

I don't know if that's actually true or not (it would be worth a macro study). Unfortunately, this is often true for almost every group for whatever it's fighting for. It's ideology that brings people together. This is easily seen in NGOs, and is very well examined in Dead Aid [1]. I highly recommend reading it... emotion is what drives most giving, and almost certainly how people fight for a cause. It's hard to be rational all the time.

> Seventy years of environmentalists fighting against nuclear power is why most of the US is still powered by coal. Bad for atmospheric carbon, bad for the nation, but great if you make your money from NGOs.

Can you give evidence to support that environmentalists fighting nuclear is why we have so much coal? Seems like the coal lobby has been pretty strong lately for their own survival, independent of any environmental concerns.
