> Like the parent said, all of the currently-approved intramuscular Covid-19 vaccines have proven to have a negligible effect on transmission rate.

Multiple studies show that vaccinated people have lower transmission than unvaccinated.

> In studies conducted before the emergence of the Delta variant, data from multiple studies in different countries suggested that people vaccinated with mRNA COVID-19 vaccines who develop COVID-19 generally have a lower viral load than unvaccinated people.(157, 165-169) This observation may indicate reduced transmissibility, as viral load has been identified as a key driver of transmission.(170) Studies from multiple countries found significantly reduced likelihood of transmission to household contacts from people infected with SARS-CoV-2 who were previously vaccinated for COVID-19.(171-176) For the Delta variant, early data indicate vaccinated and unvaccinated persons infected with Delta have similar levels of viral RNA and culturable virus detected, indicating that some vaccinated people infected with the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 may be able to transmit the virus to others.(163, 164, 177-180) However, other studies have shown a more rapid decline in viral RNA and culturable virus in fully vaccinated people (96, 177, 180-182). One study observed that Delta infection in fully vaccinated persons was associated with significantly less transmission to contacts than persons who were unvaccinated or partially vaccinated.(181) Together, these studies suggest that vaccinated people who become infected with Delta have potential to be less infectious than infected unvaccinated people.

Did the antivaxxers lie about how the vaccines would make us reach herd immunity and stop transmission? Or that they would end the crisis? Or that there are no risks involved in taking them?

They may have over-exaggerated and come up with bullshit counter-narratives, but they were right about the core of the issue: we can't trust leaders who lie all the time.
It does not need to be. Softbank owning ARM is the status quo, the devil we know, and they have a track record of not running ARM availability/quality into the ground. They don't seem to have motivation to do so. Also, they are invested in telecommunications, so having healthy and strong ARM position for mobile devices is in their interest.

NVIDIA, on the other hand, is suspicious. It is in their interest to use and manipulate ARM to release/restrict products in such a way that will strengthen their already strong market position with accelerators, and push down its competitors like AMD and Intel.
It depends how often you use them.

Personally, $8-10K/year seems expensive unless you aren't trying to economize. I have an 11 year old ~$40Kish vehicle that I wouldn't typically pay $1K/year for maintenance and less on insurance.

But there is certainly some point at which it makes economic sense to just rent, especially if you are paying to park the car. In a city with difficult parking I wouldn't pay to own a car to use every couple of months.

But if you're going to be paying a few thousand dollars for local rentals for trips, plus some Uber, plus deliveries, plus some Zipcar, it starts to become pretty attractive to just own a car if only for the convenience.
AWS Amplify studio: low code framework to build apps

Billing limits, as in, a hard limit over which resources will shut down and I can be sure I won't be charged over that limit? I'm pretty sure that doesn't exist.
You can thank the CIA for justifying their suspicion of vaccination drives.
It’s about the right to expose others to a risk without their consent.

You don’t have the right to expose others to a deadly disease. If you undergo the “medical procedure” (an injection, not surgery, brain transplant or anything complicated, expensive or risky) you reduce risks for you and others, as well as you avoid the risk of using my taxes to pay for additional medical care you wouldn’t need if you just had the very minor inconvenience of two injections.
> We should isolate the unvaccinated for their own protection.

Didn't the Nazis say the same thing about the Jews?

> Try to deliberately infect someone with a disease such as AIDS, HPV, or smallpox and let me know what the law says about that.

There is a massive difference between deliberate spreading and not. You know this.

> You can’t, for instance, drink and drive. It’s not your personal decision the moment your decision endangers others.

There is a massive difference between not allowing people to do an action that makes others unsafe and forcing people to take an action that you believe makes you safer.
>I don't it's possible for a multi-unit apartment building to sell single units.

Ok. I own one unit of a 4-unit building, which was as far as I know built to sell, not rent, roughly 30 years ago. It is definitively not a condo, in terms of the ownership structure and the portion that I own. No HOA either.

So your point is that it's not an apartment? Empirically, it is true that people don't call it an apartment. But it has the same square footage and decor as nearby apartments. The only thing approaching a fundamental difference is that it's on two levels, with bedrooms upstairs.
Shitty in that there was literal shit, but I get your point.
If colds were unknown until 2019, and suddenly people got a cold, and then it mutated and many got a cold every year, but instead of getting on with life, we called each cold a new Greek letter, and obsessed over how each person got it, how long would this go on before people lost interest. At this point, what is the difference? I guess there is still lots of political and news value to be extracted. The sooner we move on, the sooner we can end this nonsense.

(Or for people that disagree, what is an appropriate length of time to remain hysterical about covid?)
Been using CDKTF(CDK Terraform) for a project. Been working well so far.
Not during COVID times...
Indeed.

The "C" extension is technically optional, but I'm not aware of anyone who has made or sold a production chip without it -- generally only student projects or tiny cores for FPGAs running very simple programs don't have it.

My estimate is if you have even 200 to 300 instructions in your code it's cheaper to implement "C" than to build the extra SRAM/cache to hold the bigger code without it.
You are equating not taking the vaccine to being anti-vax. That makes a nice slogan but that is not true. For instance it makes zero sense for people who already got covid to get vaccinated. By now that must be 20-30% of the population in most western countries. The benefits for a healthy 20-something are also spurious. This is not the population that will flood ICUs. So you can perfectly decline to take that vaccine without being anti-vax in any way.

There are many people who decline to be vaccinated who are irrational (and I think anyone over 60 who does is just not looking at their risks right). But you won’t convince them by forcing their hand or making obviously untrue statements.
> at which point any investors cashed out.

Well, actually that is also not true. At IPO preferred stocks convert to common but the investors can keep their ownership, they can but don't have to cash out or can only partially cash out.

Investors can also keep board seats in many (or most?) cases.
Yep, shut down energy production as well, these key workers will also stay at home. Just 2 months without electricity and internet, I am sure you will manage cowboy.
I know this is way besides the point, but

Is so funny to read. It’s like history never happened.

> but 30% are holding everyone back

If you truly believe squashing the number of unvaccinated people will result in any significant benefit for the rest of us you are undeserving of the first place in this comment thread.

You could wait a few months for those vaccine laws to go into effect in Europe for proof. Or you could just look at the existing body of data that's staring at you in the face and are deciding to ignore because faulting someone else is one of the most primitive endorphins kicks you can get.

It has all terminated in short order whenever and wherever executed, except possibly dodgy packages no one tries to install.
My problem with Linux for end users is that Windows and Linux break down differently.

When a Linux update fails (which can happen automatically; for example, Ubuntu 16 reserved a very small boot partition and upgrading it to the latest version leaves it with too little space to keep the normal amount of kernels available), you end up digging through files and configuration and terminal commands. This is different from Windows where you have four buttons to click, and if all of those fail, you either reinstall the entire OS or reverse engineer Microsoft's logic and directory structures.

When Windows fails, the OS usually detects the issue and reverts all the work. Their self repair is excellent. Sure, Windows Update may be broken for a while and the forced restarts make the whole process annoying, but the system still works.

Linux can easily leave the system unbootable while Windows has the necessary recovery options. Boot recovery and System Restore are some features that definitely improve Windows' stability. Timeshift with a CoW filesystem and some GRUB hooks can somewhat replicate the effect, but I haven't seen any distros enable all of those by default yet.

For example: I enabled encryption in the installers of both Ubuntu and Manjaro and hibernation simply didn't work. I managed to make it work with some config tweaks on both, but out of the box my laptop simply shut down and lost all of my work when the battery got low. My laptop also had no sound, stuttery video and no working microphone because of missing drivers for Nvidia, Intel and Realtek chips. Udev rules broke sound every time I unplugged my HDMI drive or let it go to sleep.

Windows sometimes breaks down because of shitty drivers, but I've never seen it happen this severely.

This was probably all related to the manufacturer's decisions about board configuration, drivers, and other proprietary crap, but the end user doesn't care whose fault that is and neither should they.
>Sorry, you're out of our depth on this one.

If you feel that's the case, provide evidence instead of attacking the poster.
I'm not surprised to find out they were breached I was trying to do a SEP around that time and finally gave up because their system was so broken. At least this explains the Apple ID reset requests I was getting in October!
> That doesn't cross a line to me, but saying "you absolutely must take this vaccine or we're going to use the force of government to make you" does.

You're absolutely right about that but there is a cost-benefit analysis here. If we don't want the government to be able to track our every move (to make sure that the unvaccinated don't violate the public interest) then it's simpler and probably more democratic to just mandate vaccination.
Before you dismiss this as not serious due to the fact that it needs a server to be compromised first: it isn't rare at all to see companies giving access to each others' servers for instance to help with the maintenance of bespoke applications, or for situations where systems administration is outsourced. And of course those are exactly the kind of clients that are at risk of having their infrastructure compromised in the first place, otherwise they wouldn't have to outsource this work. And once you manage to gain access to the support teams' computers you also now have a gateway into all the other machines that they support. So this has the potential to rapidly escalate to something far more serious.
I have thought about your comment.

And it's just a rant about ignoring crypto. Which has no actual value and use-case in a real economy where people need to spend money to keep people earning ( and spending) money.

I actually agree with those "old folks" and I'm only 33.. you're comment only makes sense from a greedy standing concerning crypto, not any other tech.

Additionally, your comment "in jest" is just immoral to 99% of the people. Yuk.
> If only we could apply such a black and white view to things like racism and LGBTQ rights.

You shouldn't read a pithy comment as a complete statement on any manner, and mine certainly indicated there's more complexity that wasn't being covered.

That said, in this case, the COVID anti-vaxers are the source of this division.
I’m referring to where the puck. Plenty of cash left in the Facebook cow, but its decline is terminal.
Because its a bad deal for anyone under 50. The risk potentially greater than reward. Also how many vaccines? Israel is on the 4th shot now. 30% of drugs get recalled due to safety. Natural immunity is the superior immunity anyway.
ARM hasn't been much better than Nvidia for GPU code.
Does anyone know of any software that allows people to edit decision trees? I have a use case where some non-technical people need to write a bunch of basically nested if-checks, and it would be good if they could do it visually.
Plastics that do actually sink to the ocean bed are actually carbon sinks, a good thing as long as they don’t do so much damage to the ecology on the way down.

The two major carbon sinks which really matter are building up global living biomass (i.e. replanting forests) and getting carbon locked in sediment on the ocean floor (by building up living ocean biomass that rains down on seafloor areas which are actively building up sediment.
Yes I know, it was clear early on. The study also says:

>Although vaccines remain highly effective at preventing severe disease and deaths from COVID-19, our findings suggest that vaccination is not sufficient to prevent transmission of the delta variant in household settings with prolonged exposures.

Which is what we're talking about here, preventing serious cases.
Every device will have 5G instead of Wifi. Remember Wifi dongles ?
Yeah, but then the unvaccinated would only be risking their own lives. The most prominent argument for compulsory vaccination right now is that they're taking away scarce ICU beds.
It's funny because NVIDIA used to work well on Linux, way back in the day. Then they just decided to not care, then they decided to be hostile. Now they're backtracking but only because they are forced to. I thought the amount of ML would have made them backtrack, but it seems that it is more AMD and Steam.
Occupy had a chance to maybe actually change something. Then one night, all the significant leaders were disappeared and nobody ever heard about it again, really.

<<Very clearly with smoking we've been moving towards a system where you can make whatever health choices you want as long as you aren't impacting the health of others - why should it be any different for vaccines of any kind?

I think we have long established that just me existing is not something people are willing to tolerate. Hell, just my presence impacts the life of others; sometimes even in a negative way. There is even a system to deal with issues like that. It is called civil law.

But why do we stop at smoking? Why aren't we going after farts and methane. After all, did you know that methane gas poisoning can cause death? Surely, if we researched it a little more, we would maybe find out that it causes cancer of something.
I'm sorry but your post is completely wrong.
>Before covid, nobody would recommend you to take a vaccine against something you are not in a risk group for
How about the Flu vax? I'm a healthy middle aged guy with no risk factors who gets a flu vax every year. Why wouldn't I?

>double doses and boosters were unheard of
Completely wrong. Gardasil, the HPV vaccine is given in two doses. The Chickenpox vaccination is I think three doses? Same with hepatitis B. You need a tetanus booster every 10 or so years.

>You get really sick from the second dose of the vaccine
Uhhhh myself, my partner, my kids and nearly everyone I know and work with has had two doses of the Pfizer covid vax. No-one I know has gotten really sick from either dose. A bit of a headache and sore arm and perhaps feeling a bit blah for half a day after is the worst I've heard of.
Your allusions to harming your fellow man over a mandate they didn't create or implement is highlighting some other, more pressing, issues.
Thay's why constitutions exist. So that any 1% cannot be abused by the 99%. Pure democracy means 51% can wipe out the 49%, Rwanda style.
Your post shows very well what the parent meant: you are blaming the other side for a horrible outcome. It is the Virus that creates a horrible situation and the very irrational reaction to it from all sides. We are in this mess together and everyone is spreading the virus, vaccinated or not.
Why would an IDE have a separate process for another window? At least, Idea does it right (iirc).

As for FF, I have 47 windows opened, but 11 processes running—one of which is a ‘master’ process. Meanwhile tabs that are in one window can still run in multiple processes.

That was the impression I had from the outside. They were clearly number 1 for a long time and I guess that’s when everyone made the decision and now the idea of migrating is not feasible for most.
I understand their point, I just don't think I'm being too dogmati. I'll respond to your other comment with my viewpoint.
You not wrong either, but I seem to remember that the Germans had a mighty neat, i.e., non-messy "solution" (some would say a "final" one) for a "problem" they thought they had.

Throughout history, making people second-class citizens has never resulted in anything good. If you can name one instance in history where making people second-class citizens was a net benefit, I will eat my words.
Well… some animals are dangerous. You can get deadly diseases from them, or simply be directly killed by them for lunch or the lulz.

So, I strongly suggest people get vaccinated so, at least, they don’t infect the bear that eats them.
+1 authentication is much smoother and quicker
And, additionally, with overwhelmed laboratories that are underreporting the infections because they can no longer test all samples.
Talking about majority ruling what happens to the bodies of a smaller minority... sounds like a good fascist principle. No matter your good intentions.
I’ve often thought Alexa.com top n sites Would be a good starting point.
So your argument is that people have to undergo a medical procedure so others have a greater chance of survival. While I don't fully believe this premise, let's assume it is true.

I then demand that abortion be made entirely illegal, since it is a civic duty to "take one for the team".
The initial estimate was that 70% of population (not only adult) would be sufficient to achieve herd immunity, but the problem is that while the initial virus had R_0 of 2-3, the Delta variant's is about 6.
That’s literally the opposite of a black and white view - why the minority is blocking the majority is what creates the gray area.

It’s the difference between small c conservatives who have reasonable concerns about how affirmative action might worsen the problem and flaming racists who think they’re fundamentally superior.
And I’m not even in an area that drains into the Pacific Ocean. Last i checked there wasn’t much of a problem at all of plastics flowing down the Mississippi, but I still have to drink out of godawful paper straws.
If you have to be a domain expert to configure it correctly, as is clearly the case with AWS since configuring it is a whole separate industry, then for all intents and purposes it is not there as far as a regular user is concerned. If it helps, imagine a Cessna pilot who's suddenly asked to fly a big intercontinental aircraft without any of the assistance features turned on. All the controls are there, but as far as the Cessna pilot is concerned, they can't fly it.
With the recent evidence of spiking infections and other events, I am no longer convinced vaccines are a good measure. The Netherlands is 85% vaccinated. They said we would get herd immunity at only 70%, and yet here we are with talks of "boosters", at the brink of yet another lockdown, due to yet another spike in infections. I think we need to simply get sick at large, get better and stay immune. We need to get it over with. Yes, some will die. People are mortal. Can we get over it and end this madness? It's nature. You are not going to win against it.

Let's get mass sick. It will suck for, what, 2 months at most? And then the strong have survived and we can get back to normal. Covid is inevitable. Let's face it.
Indeed, that makes me wonder how difficult for companies like Nginx is making profit from open source, well they were acquired by F5 a couple of years ago so probably they were doing quite well I think.
I was surprised to find the top gOggle hits for "RISC-V fusion" (because I don't know WTF it even is) point to HN threads. Is this not discussed prominently elsewhere on the 'net?

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25554865

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25554779

Is the Googrilla search engine really is starting to suck more and more, or is there something else going on in this case?

The threads read more like a incomplete explanation with a polarized view than anything useful for understanding what fusion means in this context.

Overall is give the ranking a score of D-.
As a partial subscriber to the idea that ARM is probably better than RV64 for high performance that probably might not be all that good.
Nvidia card....not sure about the rest, this has happened with the shortcuts at least.
CDK is quite great.

My only gripe I have with it: even though you can synthesize raw CloudFormation templates from a CDK project using `cdk synth`, you can't upload the artifacts without running `cdk deploy` (so you can't actually use the synthesized templates to deploy, because the artifacts aren't there).

This is in contrast to SAM which does exactly this with the `sam package` command. Generates raw CloudFormation and uploads all assets to S3 in the right place.
This paper seems to be about the Sinopharm vaccine.
It's Band 48 and there are 321 FCC approved devices as of today
Yet this seems like a nice smooth self-own. In fairly clear English, the abstract states that everything the vaccine causes, the virus also causes. Not that a hypothetical copypasta-seeking Facebook-warrior need necessarily read and understand that, but at least it's an easy dunk for one of their exasperated friends/family.
True. Thank you for acknowledging the point and adding further qualifications. Public discourse is rather disheartening. The options are either 100% vaccination or 0% vaccination, either strict house confinement or nightly clubbing, either masking while hiking in the woods or no masks ever. Life is a rich tradeoff of a myriad factors, somehow we reduced it to a handful of black/white binaries.
I am far away from Appleverse. Can anyone tell me few usecases for M1 EC2 instances?
Fairly certain you mean “a higher death toll” and not “fatality rate”, which is in itself absolutely meaningless and typical of the antivax nonsense.
