Am not sure how you came to that conclusion of dishonesty in others. Did anyone ever claim that the only reason they were selling you crypto was because they love you, and wish the absolute best for you, and have nothing to gain at all from it other than seeing you happy? If they actually said that, they are liars, and you are a fool.
A good question... The trace looks like it is enclosed in ground up to that moment so isn't intended to radiate until after the SMD resistor, so removing that resistor should be as good as cutting the trace.

My hat's off to them though - that is some steady hand dremel/soldering work on something extremely tiny. Those little u.FL connectors are hard enough to mate with the connecting wire - I dread to think how difficult soldering them on by hand must be!
> The "scanning" feature that underpins this has been deployed for years

Yes, I agree that your phone has the ability to find stuff like this based on ML etc. However, if their algorithm finds something that matches a hash of child porn, you'll be reported (after notification or something, can't remember).

Can you imagine what that would do to people? The risk of fucking this up and destroying someone's life is far too high. It's a stigma that will never go away even if it's proven false.

And what if the government decides that they want to ruin a political adversary? The technology is there to report them, rightly or wrongly, for child porn on their phone and ruin them. Again, proving that it was false will not be enough if it leaked out in the first place.

In my opinion, it's my phone (yes, yes, I know they all dial home to the mothership, I only lease it etc.) and I should have complete say over it and this is one more step away from that goal.

It's on the dystopian highway imo.
I don't see how something can be both regrettable and necessary? Also, as well as the two wars that the US was on the 'just' side of, it's also been on the quite-hard-to-call-just side of many others, where it was not exactly defending itself either.
> not in studying books or even the industry at large

In fairness the author spends most of the article explaining the approach of the industry at large (it's a good explanation too).
This is honestly one of my concerns (double-vaccinated with mRNA, no issues and I am not anti-vax).

The thing is, before the COVID-19, the world had barely heard of mRNA vaccines and suddenly there are billions of people vaccinated across the world in 2 years. I have no intention of denying that these vaccines have saved millions, if not billions of lives by preventing hospitalization, death and further overloading of medical systems worldwide.

But still, a skeptic part of my brain can't seem to 100% accept the fact, even though it might be a medical miracle. It's that scratch on your back you can barely not reach, and it stays itchy for days and months.

On the other hand, vaccines that use inactivated or dead viruses to incite an immune response has been known for more than two centuries, whereas this feels... different.

Unfortunately, at the time of writing this, none of the other answers to this question in this thread have been proper responses that directly answer the question, except the one about "changing priorities from do no harm to optimize for least harm" that seems to make most sense.

So, I'd love to have a direct answer, no analogies, no "imagine how worse it could have been without vaccines", no "disease X kills more people than Covid and mortality for mRNA vaccine for Covid is negligible compared to that", no shifting goalposts, no guilt-tripping for being skeptic, just a straight, direct answer to this question of the OP.
The severity of the myocarditis after vaccines was generally described as mild.

I also strongly doubt your statements about spike protein distribution, all cells have lipid membranes. The vaccine is injected into the muscle in your arm. Why would it accumulate in the heart?

And it is not unusual that you can't do real placebo studies once you have a very effective treatment. Denying effective treatment to people just to be able to do these studies would be extremely unethical.
> equivalent features are not being misused on Google and Meta/Facebook's properties

The objections come when such systems are to be run not on corporate property, but on end user property. I don't see anybody objecting to corporations scanning content uploaded to the corporation's own computers. Scanning content on the user's computer, which is the user's property, is what unnerves people.

Furthermore, while Apple may have implemented this feature in a relatively safe way (I don't fully understand it so I'm not confident of that, but smart people here think it so I'll assume it for the sake of argument), I believe that the general public does not really understand this nuance and Apple normalizing the practice of scanning personal computers will clear the way for other corporations to implement scanning in shittier way. If Microsoft were to start scanning all documents on a Windows computer by uploading those documents to their own servers, is that a distinction that would necessarily be made clear to the general public? I don't think so. The rhetoric will be "Apple does it and that's fine, so Microsoft can do it too". The technical differences in the two implementations will be understood in forums like this, but not by the general public at large.
Funny enough, I was just reading about Aguero:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/59660727
That improvements are given in milliseconds rather than percent and charts aren’t anchored at zero tells me all I need to know.
Neither. An infection, which may or may not be symptomatic.
It's quite clear that the person who wrote the comment I'm replying to believes that "truly protective" means 100% protection, and that if the vaccine was "truly protective" you no longer need to worry about getting COVID.

This is a very dangerous idea and why there is so much confusion and misinformation.

By insisting that 91% is "truly effective" in conversations like this you are not helping.
I find it sad and funny watching folks use this tired argument that forget how filled with scams the current financial system is. A good 3/4 of dotcom, penny stocks, boiler rooms, and even highly regarded stocks like Nikola prove that it doesn't matter where it is, money attracts scams and the SEC and others do nothing to prevent it. Try not living in such a naive world longing for a nanny state that doesn't/can't exist at least to protect people before the fact. Try owning responsibility for your financial existence. We'll still be here growing and taking on the financial world that exists to leech upon the naive and empowering people to create their own wealth and comfort.
> Let’s give all your data to governments under the guise of protecting children

But that's precisely what Apple's CSAM implementation doesn't do. It compares on-device image hashes with hashes of known CP images. It affords more privacy than other methods, which Apple is probably using anyway and which other cloud services are definitely using.

https://www.apple.com/child-safety/pdf/CSAM_Detection_Techni...
The difference is that there is only 1 IF statement or local/remote config flag that will enable this scanning on your device even if you don't use the iCloud photo sharing feature.

It is super well documented that Apple ALWAYS follows the laws of the land, so the scenario is that a government adds some new hashes that might not be CSAM as you and I define it but might be political stuff(but the citizens can't check).
Also now that the code is there Apple can't refuse to add this hashes or enable the feature forcefully when a legal warrant for that territory is presented.

some more config changes and it can start scanning for text in documents too.
> but realistically the governments of the world will want this capability to scan people's data for things and will get it developed one way or the other

Sorry to burst your bubble.

But all of the photo/cloud providers including Apple have been doing CSAM scanning for many years. And will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

Apple actually tried to give users more privacy.
Raspberry Pi Zero is basically no longer available. Out of stock everywhere. With the chip shortage who knows how long till they’re generally available again.
Honestly the tooling in Rails for this is the thing I miss most now I don't get to work in it any more. Makes me wonder how anyone gets anything done without it.
Absent an on-record commitment that this surveillance has been abandoned, I don't put it past Apple to deploy it silently in a minor point-update and then reveal it later, similar to how they secretly converted iOS end-users' filesystems to APFS in versions prior to its official release. They could then point to nobody noticing the deployment as purported evidence that privacy concerns were overblown.
Why does this need a name? Isn't the C in CSS enough? Serious question, this seems to be exactly how CSS was designed to function.
Inlining passed function pointer is not really a JIT only optimization. As long as the pointer is a constant it only requires interprocedural optimizations and/or link time optimization.

The jit can help if the value of the pointer varies dynamically and in an unpredictable way (otherwise PGO would also help).
Myocarditis has an extremely high fatality rate. Why is it considered mild when getting it via COVID/Vaccine as opposed to the usual ways?
So a month worth of engineering effort for something, that you would use once a month ?

If you need to upgrade production stuff more than that you have problems elsewhere.
Ah yes killing dogs. Much less ethical than the animals that NASA used right?
Taking literally the first atrocity you list:

> The massacre at Huế came under increasing press scrutiny later, when press reports alleged that South Vietnamese "revenge squads" had also been at work in the aftermath of the battle, searching out and executing citizens that had supported the communist occupation.[10][11]

This feels like the classic 'barrage of bullshit' strategy, where a load of dubious claims are thrown out in the knowledge that it's near impossible to refute them all, and refuting part of them will come across as "well, this one might be contested, but look at all the others!".
Can't tell if sarcastic...

> This is not the case with Covid, and people rarely if ever get Covid twice.

Beta, Delta and Omikron just called to disagree. In particular Omikron seems to be (speculative at this point!) spreading well amongst the previously infected in South Africa.

As a reference point, we are re-infected with the other endemic human corona viruses every 1.5-2 years.
CPU on client or server? Client is probably negligible overhead while server is something that needs to be dealt with on an ISP level. Linespeed and latency live in different orders of magnitude to client CPU processing / rendering.
> 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.

Them the developers should do something about it, instead of calling a comparatively crippled compositor complete. If choice is good, respect everyone who says x.org is better, instead of trying to scare drums or use vague words like “progress”. Progress towards what? Lower Linux satisfaction?

If you think I’m a troll because I refuse to lie about how the useless wayland is actually good and don’t engage in an encho chamber of praise, you need to listen to complaints and respect opinions of others. Your analogy is of it being a truck instead of a bike, it’s hard to take you seriously unless you’re trolling, that is unless it’s a plastic toy truck. You bring up nonexistent threats like Android not calling 911, and demonstrate it’s being a no threat, and an irrelevant threat.

Don’t joyfully call everyone to switch from fine software and enjoy their new crippled and child proof space progress and applause the broken userspace for the sake of scaling, slightly smoother movements and colored cursors. Respect other people who don’t like the same thing you do instead of calling them wrong. You wouldn’t do this to a sexual preference, not Thor compositor.
So it's arbitrary then
Thanks for the field report. Wish we could organize a open-source data collection exercise for live trials and input parameters with regional/policy path dependence. That could enable retroactive analysis across inadvertent cohorts.
Nice. We have reached the point where hearing from your social circle is equivalent to data.
Why? It is the equivalent thing to download elf-files for Java.
curl already supports HTTP/2 and HTTP/3.

It's true that you miss out on "telnet example.com 80" and typing "GET /", but that honestly hasn't been valid since HTTP/1.1 replaced HTTP/1.0. To some extent this all sounds to me like "I hate screws, they render my trusty hammer obsolete". That's true, but there are also great screw driving tools.
Huge amounts of life and species have died out in the past and will continue to happen. This time we have an hand in it, but you don't see any other species aware or preoccupied by it, so it's also morality issue.

My response was in order to address this generalized anxiety and guilt that's mostly unproductive and in some cases quite maquiavelic.

So yes, "the planet" will be fine. Our coddled asses attached to our infantilized minds probably not, so instead of this schizophrenic attitude ranging from "We're doomed!" to "I want to talk to the manager", maybe we should be more productive and do our best while understanding we might not get what we want and that's "fine".
And your phone is what?

If it’s an Android it’s probable got something similar in place.

On an iPhone all you must to use disable iCloud sync to avoid CSAM

> Your memory is wrong.

I don't think so, you can still find the traces of it everywhere.

You can't deny the fact that the people in charge decided to misinform the public several times for specific reasons. It started with masks: people wanted to wear them and all the media was parroting that "there is no evidence that masks protect against COVID-19" (or was it called the "Wuhan virus" still back then?). While technically correct, it was against common sense and the aim was to limit the demand for masks used by healthcare institutions. Once they secured the masks, they turned 180 degrees and started to force everyone to wear the masks. What a great way to build credibility.

Regarding vaccines, more openness would be great. What we were promised was efficiency at the level of >90%. What we see now, after mutations and with time after taking the vaccine, the efficiency levels are much lower and it looks like - at least in some countries - people will have to take the vaccine perpetually 2 or maybe even 3 times a year in order to be able to work. In this case, we better study the possible adverse reactions well and assess the overall lifetime risk, especially for younger persons.
I don't believe that they'll slip it under the radar at all. I think they'll brand it as something awesome and magical and just add it anyway. People, for the most part, don't scratch the surface EVER, so they'll just think it has a cool scanning feature built-in now.
Yeah I think it's just the particular Bluetooth controller in my NUC being difficult. I didn't spend time investigating as I didn't need it anyway.

I never understood what's so special about TED. In my language segment of the internet it's always been portrayed as one of the things you'd learn English for. So I learned the language — more or less — and started watching it. Absolutely disappointing. The vast majority of presentations I've seen are a very light form of popular science — any decent book written by an actual scientist will serve you much better. It's usually a guy (or gal) clowning around before the audience and spending 40 minutes on a subject that can be summarized in two short paragraphs of text.

Have I just been doing it wrong? are there any decent presentations out there?
Wouldn't mixing significantly reduce your chance at legal recourse should you have a severe reaction?
I'd say you're missing the forest for the trees. You'd be hard pressed to come up with a realistic scenario where I would advise you that your odds are indeed better without the vaccine.

He explained why. Visit the old Bob Dole website, then visit a 2021 candidate’s website. The problem isn’t the protocol. It’s the internet obesity crisis.
> Then they should know even better that judges don’t make laws, they rule on existing laws, and their rulings get used as precedent.

Yes, and when those precedents are binding, they are called "case law" aka judge-made law. It's not a perjorative, most of the time. It's simply how the law works in countries like the US.

I know this is true for big multi-kilowatt power amplifiers.

But are there any on-chip silicon amplifiers which can be damaged transmitting into a short or open circuit? Logic to detect that case and power off is trivial and should make the manufacturing process easier too (for one thing, rework of a dry solder joint on an antenna no longer requires the SoC to be replaced).
Summary:

He talks about:

- His favourite products

- The worst designed product he owns

- His design heroes (and why)

- On the lack of experience when creating a product and turning that to an advantage (see below)

- On creating a prototype and patenting your physical product

- Speed of execution when creating a product

- Why hand dryers are not quiet

- Why he believes design and engineering is inseparable

An interesting opinion from Dyson on the lack of experience:

> "I think a lack of experience is a great help. An expert thinks he knows it all but he's also rather inhibited by his experience, his knowledge. He finds it difficult to steer off the well-known path.

> Whereas if you have a lack of experience, but huge curiosity, and you approach your new challenge with naivety, I think it's easier for you as inexperienced designer to come up with something different and to follow a different path."
their latest updates to their project management features[1] launched as part of the "new" issues are totally going in that direction though.

I'm unsure as to whether that's a good thing or not.

Why would you not want experts designing a protocol of such reach and significance?
Why would they do that when HTTP1.1 is perfectly fine and available?

That will be the explanation, I’m not too optimistic.

Because myocarditis is not myocarditis. The cases observed after vaccines were mostly mild. The myocarditis after vaccines does not necessarily have the same severity as myocarditis in general, and from observations so far it looks to be milder:

COVID has been great for telehealth. Talking to a doctor is so much easier over Zoom. I hope you're able to get it as well. The effect is orthogonal to that of every other anti-depressant out there.

The hardest part about finding the right meds is the patience/iteration/experimentation you need to finally land on the right thing and, knock on wood, I've finally found that stability.
How is running a detection algorithm on one’s photos not “scanning” them?
If congestion stayed the same then ~1.5x (slightly less in reality, since each lane does introduce some overhead) the people were able to get to where they wanted (still a win!) or there was a bottleneck somewhere else in the system (so go address that as well!).
The vaccines against Covid actually work, and (probably) come with a small risk. Sure, just getting Covid does too and probably a bit better, but comes with a great risk.

Now, does that warrant mandating? I'm not so sure, that's a much more difficult discussion swaying us (among other things) back and forth the between freedom of one person and the health of another.

Ummm if you keep on reading on, she is also describing someone feeling her out, also refusing to stop forcing touching despite being told to stop and keeping the relationship strictly professional.

None of that is ok, and should be dealt with.

That said she comes across idealistic and bit naive, HR is not to protect the (R)esources its there to protect the company's interest.
