> What gives is that the Fed isn't printing money and lacks the authority to do so.

This is narrowly literally true of physical currency (the Bureau of Engraving and Printing prints the Federal Reserve Notes that are US currency, the Fed just distributes them), but it otherwise completely misses the point of money creation via monetary policy.
This is anxiety inducing. I love it.
Sounds like Hipsterism via social platform. Not trying to be unecessarily insulting. Just trying to identify the value. Reintroducing fleeting, ephemeral, scarcity of accessibility but but not in an arbitrary formulaic way in large scale tech platforms is interesting. It is inherently the value of "I found the band" and "oh yeah I liked cream cheese avocado salad on macaroni toast" sorts of things though.
Silver tarnishes, so you better figure that into you longer term plans. Buy "real" coins not bullion. Gold its less important who minted the coin.

It's great for me. It runs for months as a daily driver without any issues. No crashes. In HiDPI also.

However I run it on a desktop NUC with wired everything. I don't use WiFi, Bluetooth or Suspending. I'm not sure if the more laptop-related usescases will be ok. For example I had to turn off my bluetooth controller because it hangs the boot process. I think this is just a peculiarity of my particular controller though.

Also I have one weird key repeat thing I still have to investigate :) But I think my Apple keyboard is just a bit funny.
Wait, what ? Mozilla is taking already more than 8 years to add SHA-2 support to mozilla::pkix's OCSP implementation ? This saddens me, the devs seem overloaded. As the only other open alternative to Chrome based browsers I hope they can stay current.
> The biggest benefit is that you can use drivers with actually correct acceleration curves

I just checked, and libinput does have the correct "flat" acceleration curve as an option, so I think we're good. ;-)

https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/pointer-...

Being more serious, that document has a bunch of graphs of libinput's acceleration curves for different devices. I'd love to see a write-up of the curves you've implemented and why they're superior in your opinion.

The Moderna booster is only 50ug RNA.

There is a whole bunch of trials now on mixing vaccines, but of course the number of specific combinations is very large. It does look like mixing works well, and there are some indications that mixing leads to a better response, this has been observed in particular for AZ/Biontech.

I got three different vaccines, following the recommendations at the time. So at least here in Germany we do freely mix them.
In reality/history nuclear has often been the reason to introduce time of use pricing, to encourage people to move loads to the overnight demand lulls to better match nuclear's flat output.

So I guess that's one more flaw in the extreme anarchist case for more nuclear power.

The 787 has its share of problems, but at least it's newly designed and has to conform to the latest safety regulations, not an over 50 year old design like the 737 MAX. If it wasn't such an old design, the odd placement of the engines which couldn't fit under the wings and therefore the "workaround" for the issues caused by this odd placement (MCAS) would not have been necessary...

For some yes, for many, no.

At one point I was working out 4 days a week, was absolutely ripped, and salsa dancing multiple nights a week; but I was still depressed.

It really depends on what kind of depression you have, often it’s a consequence of something else (in my case, probably an anxiety disorder and a genuine difficulty forming lasting social bonds).
Ask HN: Have you ever taken a 'How Not To Be a Jerk' training class at work?
This, I guess, would be pretty close to, or inclusive of, any anti-sex/whatever harassment training.

In this case, though, it would actually include training on how to do things like:

- how to ask again/remind someone of something they said they were going to do for you but have not yet
- how to communicate non-violently -- e.g. you would learn _not_ to say things like i heard a jerky coworker tell others repeatedly in the not too distant past, "I already told you yesterday, blah blah blah".
- the appropriate way to deal with situations when they're going sideways -- i.e. remain polite, at a minimum, e.g. another recent experience had a co-worker basically going off on a customer because the co-worker was impatient and incompetent.

Lots of thoughts behind this, but a couple are:

- people don't know how to act *even when* they want to act correctly. the world is complicated, we don't all grow up in the same cultures, same happy/broken homes, etc.
- postive reinforcement in small drips/snippets, say, at the beginning of each day, can help not only train people properly, but also actually improve behavior
- this type of training _could_ greatly reduce worker suffering, whether at the hands of managers or non-manager co-workers

There are a few ideas here, but that's the gist of it. It's like morality training for the workplace.

I think a lot of the School of Life site/store/school/whatever:

https://www.theschooloflife.com/

I think of them a lot because I often think to myself, 'man -- we need a school of _life_ or something'.

And then i look them up again and see how they're doing some of the things i think are cool, and some that are less than.

but in these times of civil society breakdown, i feel like this type of training could 'help the centre hold' -- in this case, the centre of the company, or a single worker's professional and/or personal life (as affected by what's happening at work).

so, maybe you're about to tell a co-worker to f-off, but...your 'keepin it real' morality lesson this morning told you how to deal with bottled up frustration -- e.g. go chill, take some time, wait until tomorrow to ask/say/do anything, ask co-worker if you can chat over coffee in the breakroom, break out the non-violence communication skills, talk it over, etc.

Benefits would in theory accrue to company bottom lines, worker happiness/satisfaction/dignity, etc.

Nope. Markets require just a couple of free participants willing to exchange goods or services. No governmental involvement there.
Summary.

>We estimated extra myocarditis events to be between 1 and 10 per million persons in the month following vaccination, which was substantially lower than the 40 extra events per million persons observed following SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Vaccination reduces the risk of myocarditis relative to not getting vaccine.

(risk increased only among those younger than 40).
Well you installed an always on microphone in your house, attached to a processing unit connected to internet all the time.

Would a change of behavior/lifestyle change the depression?

Yes. Clearly I disagree with others here.

The problem is that it's a vicious circle so it's difficult to change your behavior/lifestyle. But if you can, maybe with external help, it surely helps except maybe in very hard cases.

By the way, I'm not sure the term clinical is being used correctly in other comments. Could someone with relevant knowledge confirm?

The worst obstacle to break the circle are negative thoughts, that hide where the exits from the labyrinth are.

Most middle class has loans, which inflation helps, and don't hold savings in cash, but in assets like houses and 401k, both of which inflation helps.

Who holds lifetime savings in cash? That would be a terrible idea.

Employers generally are forced to increase wages, although lagged, else people start to leave.

Inflation isn't a tax on the middle class. It transfers effective wealth from lenders to borrowers.
We'll get on this tomorrow to help make this right. It's hard work dealing with all of the complexity that comes from parsing and patching Java packages!

If you're doing a update/delete/insert in prod because you really have to (I had this a couple times in the last few months):

- reproduce the issue and fix locally, with prod data copied over if needed (better than guessing)

- save (back up) all data that is being changed somewhere, even if it's on your local machine temporarily (again, better than not having it)

- if your datastore has transactions, run the change and a confirmation query in a transaction/rollback several times before committing

- don't hide what you're doing, tell everyone who will listen that you're mucking about in prod

- if someone will hop on a screen share with you, let them

Main theme here, when making data changes, is test as much as you can and make sure folks know it's happening. If you're making data changes, the code has already failed, so don't feel bad doing what you need to do, but mitigate loss as much as you can. Shit happens, deal with it, but don't make it worse if you can.
I thought that's how too, but maybe I got my mental model messed up.

Thank you for posting this.

I received my 1st Pfizer vaccine in June and around 3 weeks after the vaccine I started experiencing frequent irregular heartbeats. Sometimes it was every day, then sometimes once or twice a week. I still experience ectopic heartbeat now (although much less frequently) as a result of the vaccine 6 months later.

I used to drink lots of coffee, but quit all caffeine in my life due to the risk to my heart! I reported this to the yellow card scheme, but I'm very glad to see more research being done and awareness.

> Vaccination increases the risk of myocarditis.

Relative to the base-level in a pre-covid world?
In a corporate setting he's probably right. Java came of age in the early 00s when a new generation of programmers were seeking a revolution, and there was a Cambrian explosion of interfaces, modularity, and pluggability, first with J2EE and with Spring being the second wave. The pendulum of change is always in swing, and with time some people grew tired (but many didn't) of enormous "enterprise" application frameworks and sought minimalism again in their systems (see also [1] in general and [2] for something in this vein relevant to the bug in question.)

I am just not sure that investing in a secondary property (Which is by far a much greater investment than I had in mind) would be MY best choice at this time.

Is it useful to have a grounding in history of any subject, absolutely. It is no different from any other subject. Some are more helpful than not.

Reading The art of War or reviewing wartime procurement and supply chain management from the vietnam war are likely to help in times of war. Deep expertese based on the WW1 comprehensive guide to digging parallel trenches will probably be of no use when launching drones against the enemy.

The british army, based on all their experience, send troops off to the desert in iraq (iraq 1) with all the equipment they needed for what they saw yesterday - cool to cold northern european climates. Plenty of warm clothes and heavy black boots with soles that litterally melted on hot roads or sand.

Times change, some lessons are persitent, many are not. Some periods of history the lesson is "buy train stocks", more recent "buy tech stocks" and those from the turn of the century "do not under any circumstances buy tech stocks no matter how many people say it will keep going up forever".

Australia has been reporting 1 in 10000 rate for myocarditis in 11-17 year olds and is ramping up their campaign to get more high school kids vaccinated.

Table 2: https://www.tga.gov.au/periodic/covid-19-vaccine-weekly-safe...

The article linked in another reply (https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/ontario-recommends-pfizer-covid-1...) for Canada suggested they stopped the Moderna Vaccines at a rate of 1 in 28000.

I wonder, what rates determine when action is taken?

This is rather vague.

Let's take a more concrete example:

Let's say you want to add a button somewhere that hides/shows another widget. Surely you don't want to go to the backend to do that? So how do you do it? With the store approach, clicking the button creates an action, that modifies the store (changing a visibility parameter somewhere) and repaints the UI.

In the diagram there is no flow back from the "API" box to the widgets. Though it still something that needs to happen.

The "API" necessarily contains some state, at least to track which component needs which data.
>Vaccination reduces the risk of myocarditis relative to not getting vaccine.

only when covid gets to 25% of population. Until that the vaccine results in higher risk of myocarditis than covid. And if we use cut-off of 40 years age, then the risk is even more worse with vaccine.

I am a little confused about the test methodology.

The post clearly explains that the big advantage of HTTP/3 is that it deals much better with IP packet loss. But then the tests are done without inducing (or at least measuring) packet loss?

I guess the measured performance improvements here are mostly for the zero round-trip stuff then. But unless you understand how to analyze the security vs performance trade-off (I for one don't), that probably shouldn't be enabled.
SARS and HiV are certainly not examples where a human virus has evolved to become more contagious but less deadly. SARS was not contagious enough to escape our control efforts, and HiV is mitigated by our anti viral drugs.

Indeed it would be nice if a less severe strain out competed current COVID, but such a thing has never happened before (as far as we know) - and as you point out there is no selection pressure for mildness when death/disability occurs some weeks after the infection has been cleared.
When the rates become higher than for the virus itself.

Last year, I experimented with developing a literary programming approach based on MarkDown where you do not need to use special markers. I wrote a 'compiler' which takes a list of MarkDown files, analyses all the C code and put them in an order in which they can be compiled. It also allows you to 'extend' types and function, where '...' is used to indicate previously defined code.
See: https://github.com/FransFaase/RawParser#documentation for a collection of MarkDown files and instructions on how to process them.

I can't wait for all the HTTP/3 -> HTTP/2 -> HTTP/1 tunneling and other exploits that will appear in all the rushed implementations. We already saw how that worked with HTTP/2 and people tried to rush OpenSSL into adopting an experimental implementation of QUIC while Google was still hashing out the spec. .

I would suggest disabling HTTP/3 for the next 10 or so years and give everyone else the chance to burn through the exploits.
