>It's not factoring in how the vaccine reduces infections.

The existing covid vaccines don't really reduce infections. Vaccinated chances of getting infected is about 1/3rd that of unvaccinated if one looks at the official numbers of infections at those places where such numbers are available. Giving that vaccine decreases the symptoms it is natural to expect that all those hordes of asymptomatic vaccinated virus spreaders aren't accounted for (CDC wouldn't count breakthrough until it is a hospitalization). The precise estimates of those unaccounted breakthrough is a wild guess, yet ballpark estimation (based on asymptomatic to symptomatic ratio for vaccinated which is much higher that that ratio for unvaccinated) brings vaccinated infection rate on par to that of unvaccinated.
From what I've read it's more so the current state of cardiovascular health that leads to problems relating to COVID, e.g. comorbidities.
> libinput became the default because of political pressure from Red Hat

I don't know if this is true, but when comparing the KDE configuration screens for both, it sure seems like it must be true. libinput is missing much that synaptics has and doesn't seem to do anything better as far as I can tell. Unfortunately, just because a developer is working hard and pouring his heart and soul into something, doesn't mean the result is actually worthwhile.

In an org that named their servers after planets, we turned off "Mars" (which was actually completely and utterly undocumented) and discovered it was the bridge between the intranet and the internet. However, upon turning it back on... Nothing came up again.

The ecosystem around bicycles is much better than the ecosystem around trucks.

You are tasked with getting to and from work every day, in the beginning it's just you who travels, but over time you have more and more things to carry with you- shovels and such.

You buy a trailer.

You find that with your trailer it's more difficult to see what is coming up behind you, so you buy side mirrors.

You find that in the cold it's difficult to keep your hands warm, so you buy hand warmers, and lights on a dynamo.

Eventually your bike is quite heavy, you carry much and requires much more effort to operate.

But it has a lot of "features".

This is the sunk cost fallacy in action.

> Do you love broken userspace? That's great, choose a compositor that breaks your userspace? My mentality of having robust software is the opposite. Suprise!

My userspace is absolutely not broken. Arguably it's less broken than yours but you've patched around the issues or are blind to them.

Sway crashes for me less often than Xorg did; but I understand that Xorg and Wayland are not the same, and that took some getting used to, and indeed it was uncomfortable in the beginning.

You are passionately arguing from a place of absolute ignorance, I have used both. I have used both professionally. I have used both for years.

Yes, I replaced a lot of my normal programs.

Yes, Wayland has issues, many of which could have been addressed if people weren't conservative. Not that I begrudge them for it, I believe choice is good.

But, it's absolutely ignorant to claim that X11 has features. X11 does not have features, it has people willing to hack on it and an architecture that allows disgusting and ugly hacks to work.

You might like that, I absolutely despise it- because malicious software exists (and I use it), things like Zoom which if given the opportunity would love to run as root and capture all my keystrokes.

Things like Teams which on Android devices managed to block 911 calls.

Things like Chrome which is attempting to be my userland.

Ultimately, I trust my windowing system more than I trust random programs I may run to bind my hotkeys.

> I'll end by saying wayland is fundamentally broken.

Wayland is not "fundamentally broken" it's been working for me professionally for years. The "features" you cite so often are non-features "my cursor can change color!" which are not inherent in x.org at all.

Wayland "breaks" things that are designed to work exclusively with X11. Much like how graphics cards "break things" that are designed to work on a serial console.

I must conclude that you're a troll. Honestly.

It's coming whether we like it or not now :(

And you can be sure that others will follow. It will be in Android at some point and possibly Windows and MacOS too.

How do they know how many cases of myocarditis should be in unvaccinated people that didn't contract covid? They don't measure that themselves.
The study is “self-control” which means patients are compared before and after the exposure (vaccine or covid) for the outcome (myocarditis). So there is a control - the control for each person is their pre-exposure selves.

If you want to argue against the article I suggest considering the bias of being 1 year older after the exposure than before it. For a large population that might matter for myocarditis incidence. I suspect they have corrected for this however.
1. Way more likely to break because the user doesn't have the program installed or it isn't in PATH or whatever.

2. You have to do all communication through argv and parsing stdout which is extremely error-prone.

3. You're almost certainly not going to get proper progress reporting.

4. It can't be interactive (e.g. how do you implement the "This file exists, what do you want to do?" dialog?)

It's so obviously worse I'm surprised you even asked. I'm not sure what "D-BUS??" means but D-Bus mitigates a few of those problems at least.
Tell that to the idiotic surveys where you got your data from. Here's one: https://www.bankrate.com/banking/savings/financial-security-...

Scroll to the bar chart. To pay for an unexpected $1k expense, 41% would pay from savings, 13% would reduce their spending on other things. I think we can agree that 41+13=54 which is "most" would thus pay without any form of borrowing. What's left that's not unknown: 16% would pay with a credit card, 14% would borrow from friends/family, and 7% would get a loan. The article adds all three sources up to hit 37% and create a headline: "Nearly 4 in 10 Americans would borrow".
Feel free to leave the thread because you can’t handle these truthes. Wayland by itself is complete shit and will be enough to ruin the deck experience.
This is very, very nice. Because it styles elements, not classes, it seems very similar to the reset.css files that were very popular once. Both those files and this project aim to set the default appearance of elements before they are explicitly styled.

It was a surrender because they cared more about power than about PR in the end.

As it stands the Labour membership is overwhelmingly in favour of PR and it only failed at Labour Conference this year because the unions did not have a position, so odds are that before the next election Labour Conference will have mandated a pro-PR position for Labour. Given almost all the smaller parties also supports it, it will then be a real possibility.
> And with many countries moving away from gas in their electricity production, or at least moving it to peak-only, the price will go down.

If there is less consumption I would imagine the price would rather go up.
Curious enough, almost everyone I know who had COVID once at least thinks they got it at least one more time. Obviously anecdata etc., I’m not substantiating any argument at all with this, but this fact of my personal experience didn’t occur to me until reading your comment!
I don't think there is any proof of that - look at VT, or in fact most of the New England states - among the highest percent of vaccinated people anywhere in the US and yet for many of those states, the cases are at a much, much higher level than at any time during the pandemic.

Look at Florida, decent % of people are vaxxed, but nearly as many (as a %) as in most new england states and yet the spread of cases is much more muted on a population adjusted basis. These data anomalies need better explanation from non-political scientists - one is not an anti-vaxxer for pointing these inconsistencies out.

I agree vaccine seems to be keeping people alive and that is a good thing, and despite your snide remarks, it is actually possible to be in favor of people getting the vaccine (I am tripled vaxxed myself) and yet still valid to question the official (and always changing) narrative we are being fed that this is only a pandemic of the unvaccinated - the facts don't back that up.
This comment is not specifically about quic, which I believe is a solid idea and would love to see used and supported more, but about the topic of requiring super fast connections to do things that really shouldn't need them.

Accessing a page where all useful information I am interested in is text, should not require a new protocol developed by genius engineers to work without delay. If I want to read an article that is 50kB of text, it's not unreasonable to expect that information to be here before my finger leaves the ENTER key, regardless of how its transmitted.

Why isn't that the case?

Because said article is not transmitted with a dollop of html to structure it, and a sprinkle of CSS and JS to make it look nice. It's delivered to me buried in a mountain of extraneous garbage, pulled in from god-knows-where, mostly to spy on me or trying to sell me crap I don't need.

I am not saying "don't invent new protocols". But maybe think about why it was perfectly possible to have functional, fast, and reliable webpages and applications in the 90s and early 00s, despite the fact that our networks and computers were little more than painted bricks and paper-mache by todays standards.

https://idlewords.com/talks/website_obesity.htm

If we don't think about this, then neither QUIC, nor QUIC2 or REALLY_QUIC will save us from being wading through a pool of molasses slow crap. Because inevitably, following each techical improvement that could makes our stack faster, is an even bigger pile of bloat that drags it down again.

If you assume that you won't ever get covid, you might assume you'll never get any cold or flu in your life, even asymptomatic ones.

It's not a good assumption unless you are planning to die in about a year for some other reasons.
It's a difficult question to answer without knowing more specifically what exactly you're trying to do and what level you're at if you're looking for tailored recommendations.

Assuming you have some experience already I find the best way for me personally is to just re-implement something I'm already fairly comfortable with in X/Y/Z language / library you're trying to learn. The problem solving along the way of doing so will teach you much about the quirks of whatever it is you're trying to learn.

Without specifics otherwise it just comes down to the usual generic advice given - check out the official docs, take a look at interesting existing projects that interest you, etc...
I wrote the original comment, but I found that very difficult here. In my opinion, there are only 2 really strong statements in the letter.

1. She feels sexually harassed and is upset that HR apparently did not agree with her, or at the very least they did not take the action that she wanted them to take.

2. She has strong personal feelings about Elon Musk and is comparing him to her own past abusive relationship. She also has a history of very negative experience with family and relationships.

I'm guessing you would have wanted to hear "she was sexually harassed" but the entire point of my comment was to argue that the step from "she feels harassed but HR did not agree" to "she was harassed and HR didn't act" was not convincing to me. In my opinion, the letter contains many other complaints that to me appear unrelated (such as the "colonial past and incorporate indigenous expertise" plan) which gives me the impression that the person writing it is likely to complain in general.

Also, please consider that I originally wrote this as a reply to a comment which said "I already see comments downplaying this issue. [..] Quit systematically downplaying it. It's real and needs fixing.". That's why I finished my comment with agreeing in the abstract, but not the specific letter. So my intention wasn't to dismiss the letter, but to argue that if her goal is to improve the situation, then this specific letter and its phrasing might not work as well as a different way of reporting the same facts.
Edit: See comment below, I put the wrong column in. It's still dozens of deaths per case of myocarditis (just not as many dozens).

Prior to vaccination being widespread, in the UK, deaths among 30-39 year olds were 185 per 100,000.

So dozens of deaths for each case of vaccine induced myocarditis.

Well, you're comparing things that are not quite comparable then...

The store approach is all about how the app handles local UI changes. Whether the action goes and fetches data from the server doesn't matter. What matters is that the store gives you a single source of truth that represents the state of the UI, and that this state gets one-way-synced with its actual dom representation.
It's a lot easier than you think. If you made up your mind, then ok, think what you want, but for the rest of the people who are reading this thread: trust me, it's much more doable than you think.

Honestly, the barriers are not so great, and definitely finances are not at the top of the list of things to overcome. Without giving any numbers it's not clear what is required to be secure, but it also depends a lot on where you live.

That being said, I'd say language acquisition is more important than having a lot of money. Once you have enough money to reach escape velocity - again, this is personal, so I couldn't say what it is - more money doesn't really matter and just makes it more likely that you'd lose it because it's an easy button.

Language acquisition and learning how to meet new people are far more important, but fortunately they're free! (almost)

While I also have no reason to actually expect the Euro to disappear in such a timescale, there is a letter whose keywords I can’t remember well enough to Google, which went something like:

"""If you asked us what our biggest foreign policy concerns were in 1900, we would have told you to worry about war with the British Empire and keep close to France.

In 1920, we would’ve been friends with the British, and Germany would be crushed and humiliated.

In 1940, we’d be at war with Germany and it wouldn’t be a one-sided kerb-stomp[0], and we’d be allied with the Soviets against them.

In 1970, we’d be friends with the Germans and in an Armageddon race against the Soviets.

In 1985, the Soviets seemed unassailable but at least we weren’t going to blow each other into radioactive glass.

In 1992, the Soviets were gone."""

[0] None of this language is an exact quote, but especially not this bit. I think the original dates were aligned on either decades or 20s of years?
They just passed a similar (actually worse) couple of laws in California, allowing up to 10 units where a single-family house stood.

In a place like CA, this is a corrupt developer handout. It removes approval requirements for developers and targets already-residential neighborhoods. And this is in the midst of another epic drought. These properties will cover even more ground with concrete, worsening water loss and wiping out trees.

Meanwhile, massive former-anchor-tenant stores like Macy's sit boarded up in dying (or dead) malls. But did the California government target disused COMMERCIAL properties for redevelopment into high-density, walkable residences? NOPE. They didn't even try that before voting to destroy existing residential neighborhoods.
The study was “self-controlled”. That is, individuals before being exposed to vaccine/covid were their own controls. This is a fairly robust technique if done right. You automatically avoid issues of your controls having different attributes to your test group. But obviously if your whole cohort is a year older after being exposed then the risk of myocarditis is higher purely based on the risk factor of age.
Anxiety is exacerbated during times of stress. Covid is placing unprecedented stress on all of us right now. Getting a vaccine and then hearing it "may cause myocarditis" can be very stressful, and we lose the ability to internalize the caveat that it's attached to a 0.004% incidence rate.

Anxiety also causes you to perceive normal bodily sensations, that you otherwise filtered out, with heightened sensitivity.

"With health anxiety there is the misinterpretation of discomfort and normal bodily sensations as dangerous. The body is very noisy. Healthy human bodies produce all sorts of physical symptoms that might be uncomfortable, unexpected, and unwanted, but not dangerous." https://adaa.org/learn-from-us/from-the-experts/blog-posts/c...

That was my initial takeaway. I suspect that the outlier is the initial connection / handshake, and that all subsequent requests were much faster thanks to the QUIC / 0-RTT session ticket. But I can't see anywhere this is mentioned explicitly, and those outliers are a fair bit worse than HTTP/2.

The comparison isn't entirely fair because there's no reason not to use TLS 1.3 on HTTP 1 or HTTP/2 connections. The 0-RTT advantage of QUIC is also available to those protocols, which is one of the things the article claims make HTTP/3 faster.

The methodology section also doesn't say if 0-RTT was actually enabled during testing. I'd argue that any system or website with an admin interface or user account system should not enable 0-RTT without very strict evaluation of their application protection mechanisms, making it useless for many API servers and data sources. It's fine for static content and that can help a lot, but with the benefit of multiplexing I'm not sure how useful it really is.
