Meanwhile vaccinating anyone < 60 has a very small benefit and it should be up to choice. Myokarditis side effects from the vaccine are probably bullshit, you can get it from almost all infections, so I expect it to see for every vaccine. We probably have no data since we lack operation of this scale.

This isn't exactly true. People under 60 have a smaller risk to get to the Hospital/ICU but it's definitely not 0. There is also still a very real risk for Long-Covid and other complications from it. This gets even worse when said <60 person has obesity, smokes or other underlying health issues.

For your reference, in the Netherlands about 89% of 18+ people have been fully vaccinated. Yet the 11% unvaccinated make up 50% of Hospital beds and more than 70% of ICU beds. Looks at this image from our Minister of Health: https://twitter.com/hugodejonge/status/1466482208995164175

It's in Dutch but you'll get the message.

Furthermore, even if you are somehow not at risk of Covid, and you would magically know this about yourself it is STILL a good idea to get the shot because it reduces your chances of getting it (and passing it on!) and even if you get it your viral load is lower so the chances to spread it are reduced.

Stop making up arguments and get your bloody shot.
How do you know their intent?
This is sadly very typical behavior at this point. You don't have to fear unvaccinated people, the protection you get is from the vaccine alone. What you might want to fear is a triage for which healthcare funding is solely responsible. Perhaps unvaccinated take up more beds, I am not really sure we can trust the data though because there will be insane political pressure to keep that on the message.

I hope blaming people not at all involved in current miseries becomes a popular sport again.

The UK is already investigating as well, see https://www.theverge.com/2021/11/16/22785832/nvidias-arm-acq...

The EU is also investigating: https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/27/22266504/nvidia-arm-deal...

Any one of these regulators can both delay and/or stop and/or change the conditions of the proposed merger.

It's highly likely that any other direct acquisition of ARM would get the same investigation, no matter who the acquirer is.
Yeah, dbt snapshots do a row hash and update if anything in the row changes. We had a source table that had a bunch of daily changing timestamps, e.g. "load date", that we needed to ignore, and focus on a business key. Dbt was an utter torment to try get this going. Ended up building a more elegant framework without it.

This is a contradiction in terms...

Bitcoin promotes hoarding no more than gold does. And speculation no more than FX or commodities trading does.

If a payment currency was pegged to bitcoin and the backing ratio remained fixed things would be fine like they were when we had the gold standard or even the later USD reserve currency standard when the USD was backed by gold.

However history had shown that these arrangements did not hold as central bankers simply couldn't resist firing up the printer and breaking the peg with the scarce backing asset. Political pressures, wars, whatever the reason. Every peg was broken.

Human greed, misplaced albeit well-intentioned mistakes, and simple human fallibility will continue to tempt even the most honourable people close to the money spigot. It's happened throughout the ages and human nature will not change in this regard.

Bitcoin _algorithmically_ prevents this debasement and so it is literally the perfect base monetary asset. No one can fuck with it.

Automotive EE here. There is a big shit show with vehicle security right now.

There basically wasn’t any. Which guess what? WORKED GREAT! Until… some moron decided cars needed WiFi hot spots (3G), then OTA flashes, and etc. Wasnt hackable until you hooked it to the internet.

So of course they spend as little as possible, with the cheapest network providers. And there is a big public hack by two clowns that were fed info by a letter agency. A Wired article, bla.

Fast forward… most mfgs use approx the same firewall now. It blocks data access to between the radio/telematics and rest of car. That was their solution, not to harden the car, not to get rid of the fucking Internet, just put radio and garbage on its own network. Best part? The firewall isn’t a required part of the car. You can just unplug it and tie the bus wires together.

Next gen vehicles are using more busses, automotive ethernet, and a much more complex firewall, but still the same idea. Not sure if the new vehicles have checks to make sure the firewall is there. At least with automotive ethernet you’ll need a switch and can’t just jump wires together.

So… you aren’t far off with needing an OpenWRT. The issue is the custom hardware. IIRC, the next gen firewalls use a specific 90-pin connector (yazaki?) that only Bosch can buy, that’s the absolute minimum step / issue.

Best part though!? The immobilizer won’t be the firewall most likely, it’ll be it’s own module and by 2026 I really expect crypto secure MAC’d messages.

So… yea, good luck homie.
Polymer Capital Management | Software Developer | Onsite (Flexible WFH) | Full-Time | Visa Transfer Only | Shanghai, Taipei, Hong Kong | https://www.polymercapital.com

Polymer Capital Management is an Asia-focused private asset manager for institutional investors. Our headquarter is in Hong Kong, with offices across Asia.

I'm representing the Risk & Quant Analytics department here, our projects cover risk analytics, quant research, program trading, and streamline/automate daily operation (including middle office, compliance, trading desk, etc.). That's a lot of topics to cover, so we are investing tons of resources in technology, and continuously hiring developers.

Our organization is flat, we follow Agile & DevOps best practices, developers are expected to be self-managed, curious, and proactive.

Our infrastructure is cloud based, AWS & GCP, with a mix of kubernetes & serverless setup.

Our major languages are C# (Backbone), JavaScript/TypeScript (Front-End, Serverless), Python (Data Science).

We want developers with good coding practices (unit tests, test-driven, CI/CD, infra as code), different industry backgrounds (tell me the unique technical challenges you tackled in your fields), not limited to financial background (you will learn all the math, statistical and financial knowledge in no time).

Since we expect developers to cover projects end-to-end, we don't prefer developers who only want to do a single section, like front-end or back-end; who are not able to communicate in English, since you need to face users and discuss solutions with fellow developers (if you are really good, limited capability is acceptable)

It is the Virus that creates a horrible situation, and the situation is much worse than it could be. The problem has been compounded by the ailing health care system in Germany. As others have described, the number of ICU beds has declined in the last two years. And this is not only because there is a lack of (badly paid) staff. But also because the hospitals were initially paid for each bed provided (between 150 and 200 € per day) and now get a bonus only if they have over 85% occupancy. To repeat: hospitals are currently financially rewarded for working at the performance limit. This is a factor that is not talked about enough. There is currently no good reason for hospitals in Germany to build additional ICU capacity.
Every year in Germany 127000 people die from smoking. 74000 from alcohol and 25000 people died from the flu in 2017/2018. Our health system has a high burden all the time and Corona contributes to it. But it is far too simplistic to say that the unvaccinated would add to the problem to the point that the health care system is in danger of toppling over. There are many contributing factors and all of them need to be addressed with the right measures. We are thinking about forcibly vaccinating people who don't want it. Is that an appropriate response? I don't think so.
I believe the most promising route is to not try to do passthrough but to use a "virtual" gpu, aka a paravirtualized device. Thanks to the contributions of an open-source developer*, virtio-gpu has been ported to macOS (it already works on Linux but not on Windows and soon it will be on macOS). Apple is also reportedly working on bringing better support for macOS virtualized environments [2].

It means that users will be able to create any number of macOS instances with 3D acceleration, without having to care about trying to do complicated things (mediated devices or single-gpu passthrough or pci-passthrough of a second GPU).

As of now, the performance hit is high (more than 50%), but it will certainly improve over time, and many users might already find it acceptable (= people NOT playing recent video games).

Icing on the cake, thanks to the EGL-headless display (which is independent of virtio-gpu) and VNC, it is possible to connect to these instances remotely.

Shameless plug: I am working on Phyllome OS [3], a Fedora Remix with the goal to include the necessary plumbing to ease advanced virtualization techniques for end-users, and to offer curated virtual machine models.

I currently only use virtual machines as desktop machines, including locally, and even my poor x230 laptop can do it. I keep the host operating system intact (Phyllome OS), and use VMs as desktop machines. It has drawbacks (difficult USB access; displays models that were not designed for local use; sound support), but I firmly believe it will get better over time and, perhaps, one day, end-users will be able to easily deploy any modern OS on any modern hardware...

> Germany of all places should be absolutely allergic to such rhetoric.

It is the German gene.
It doesn't requires mass vaccination. It requires people to be a little smart.

What if we all respected the first confinement? 6 weeks everybody at home, period.

The disease would be gone.

But no, oh no. People just can't be reasonable. So instead of 6 weeks, we've been dealing with this shit for almost two years.

And now you blame those who are unvaccinated, while vaccinated people go partying and spread the disease.

No, you should blame unreasonable people.
As long as the code does what you want, you don't hope to receive any advice on how to do things, you expect no help in debugging the issues you encounter, and you don't expect to collaborate with others building on top of the same platform - then yep, community and momentum doesn't matter.
"Plenty of vaguely inspirational messages" I totally agree, but this a much bigger trend with job postings around the start-up ecosystem. Sorry guys, but nobody (or the majority of people) is really "on a mission to democratize X", or "to great the best customer experience in ..." It's really not exciting at all, because when you finally cut through the crap that is trying to sell you a "mission", the ultimate goal is to bring tons of profit to the VCs and founders of the given start-up. So, just don't lie to me on my face, in fact, I much rather respect the guys being completely honest "we created this company to get stinky rich, there's no mission behind it, nobody could really love to spend their entire day comparing insurance plans (for example)".
I also couldn’t just read stuff to “maybe use later”. It is very frustrating.

It also makes me worried to hear people fail to understand that the real time volatility of cryptocurrency trading makes it effectively gambling. Gambling with good odds of not losing your money in 5 minutes, but still far more like gambling than a classic investment in all but the most volatile stocks and commodities, I’ve seen gold move pretty hard when major world news happens, but I have never seen anything move up and down in value faster than a cryptocurrency.

Good point. But I was responding to someone who said "theoretically", which I took to mean ignoring psychology things like this and just looking at numbers. Of course "theoretically" can have many different meanings, and I might have been misunderstanding how that commenter was using it.

> it's more tangible asset + speculative future assets

When you sell a stock for $100 the tangible assets went up by $100. So the second equation is actually ($V+$100)/(N+1).

Bitcoin is a bit different because people believe Satoshi's coins are literally gone, lost. I don't think that happens with stocks.
Hackers Are Spamming Businesses’ Receipt Printers with ‘Antiwork’ Manifestos
They're "funding the israeli government/military" as much as a purchase from a US firm funds the US military - they're legally required to pay a tax and some of that money goes into the military.

Once released from the military these people have no additional obligation to pay for the military more so than people in more tame business - in fact, they might be seen as owed something for serving in the military, rather than the other way around.
The ones who lie to keep their job are the ones who get called 'charlatan'. Seems fair.
Example of a web developer:

Monitor #1: The page
Monitor #2: The code
Monitor #3: Mail, chat etc.

You can drop the third one, but at least two is kinda required. You can't just shove #1 and #2 on a single monitor or the page layout won't match the user's.

No, it was a good social network on paper, and they threw the whole company behind it. The issue was that it was meant to be a drop-in replacement for existing social networks. Except it didn't really solve any new customer issues, just solved the google issue of google not having a social space.
I don't have an opinion on the technical merits of the sRGB spec, but I do know fom experience that it's really limiting.

Modern screens are capable of an enormous range of colors that just aren't visible on the internet because of the sRGB standard.

Visit https://svija.love in Safari on a modern Mac, and you can see what Display P3 color, or ProPhoto RGB color can do.

Honestly, I will never forget the day a couple of years ago that I first saw what my monitor was actually capable of. I had been building websites in sRGB since 1995 and I was just blown away.

The sooner the new color profiles are widely adopted the better — I for one can't wait.
