I don’t see how that can work. People in fear are going to be more risk averse, surely, and innovation is always risky.

I mean clearly the US is still a very innovative economy, it’s not like everyone is constantly in fear of starvation any second. But still, I don’t see how fear promotes innovation. There are many economic and societal factors in the US that promote risk taking and innovation, but fear of hunger in oppressed workers isn’t one of them.

Don't be disingenuous.

"Emergency powers" are not how a democratic republic operates. If you want a law to force people to wear a mask or mandate a vaccine it should be made a law through Congress or through the state assemblies - not by edict by an overzealous president, governor, or un-elected "health" bureaucrat (especially ones with no actual medical degrees).

We are now entering year three of the "emergency" so please spare us all your covidian bullshit.
One of the interesting consequences of water on Mars is the fact that it can be used to make methane and oxygen (used by both SpaceX's Raptor and Blue Origin's BE-4 engines). This potentially increases the amount of cargo one can carry from Earth to Mars as one no longer needs to bring hydrogen (for the Sabatier process for making methane) from Earth for the return trip back to Earth

Interesting. I guess this is getting mainstream adoption now.
I’ve used both extensively and fully switched from the Kinesis Adv2 to the Moonlander. I believe what gp is referring to is the (obvious) structural difference between the two. With the Advantage 2, your hands are largely resting on the frame of the keyboard. With the Moonlander your wrists are either poised above whatever surface you have the Moonlander on or resting directly on it. For me, and I suspect most people, that’s simply my desk. At that point the height of your arm with respect to your desk becomes very critical to avoid your wrists getting too far from a neutral position.
Very cool. Looks extremely easy to use which is the difference between people using tools or just reading about them :)

As an aside, I created some tooling for identifying memory leaks in Python apps. Once I started sending the results to Slack and formatting them nicely, I found people ran the tool more frequently. Usability is everything.

The solution is not to discredit BMJ but to explain how BMJ article doesn't mean what antivax is insinuating.

I totally understand that when BMJ writes that this clinical research organization did a mess is this trial, someone misreads it as all Pfizer vaccine results are false. But if you say that BMJ is hoax, then we have much stronger reason to distrust healthcare professionals. Do you see the paradox here?

BMJ is expressing concern about Pfizer and regulator's failures with the ultimate aim to fix them and increase the trust by showing that every fault is taken seriously. We cannot sweep unwanted things under the carpet and hope that nothing will happen. Bad actors should be appropriately punished.
Very interesting, I can't argue with your math, props to you!

I have however lived in cities in both the US and Austria extensively and can anecdotally tell you the homelessness doesn't even compare.

If all those numbers are correct, I would assume it's a distribution issue? Maybe there's a small percentage of homeless folks all over Austria, while they're a lot more segregated into certain cities in the US?

>Home IoT might be crap, but it really has a place in manufacturing and monitoring.

What will IoT will bring to manufacturing that hasn't already existed for the past few decades? I started my career in manufacturing at a pretty large company around 2010, and quite literally every process was being monitored over a network. I worked with a framework called XMII (formerly Lighthammer[1]) that integrated with SAP and allowed us to read from various sensors collecting data on manufacturing lines and built dashboards for monitoring.

Time series analysis, both univariate and multivariate, and modeling not just the conditional mean but the conditional co(variance). There is a rich literature of linear models used by statisticians and economists (ARMA, VAR, cointegration, GARCH) and also a machine learning literature (RNN, LSTM) that I know less about.

Along these same lines - I'm looking to leave Dropbox. Has anyone used Tresorit or SpiderOak? I use it basically for cold storage - just a place to store images, files, etc. that I only access very, very rarely. I generally use iCloud for accessing images taken on my phone. The files I keep on Dropbox are just there as a redundant backup.
That quote is slightly misleading. It only looks at the SAR of vaccinated index cases. That makes sense because the letter is about the epidemiological relevance of vaccinated people, but it's incorrect to say vaccines had no effect on SAR: The study those figures were taken from also states that "The SAR in household contacts exposed to the delta variant was 25% (95% CI 18–33) for fully vaccinated individuals compared with 38% (24–53) in unvaccinated individuals."

A study based on data from Singapore found a similar effect[1].

“On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.”

“With a flashlight.”

“So had the stairs.”

“But look, you found the notice, didn’t you?”

“Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.”
The thing that bothers me a lot about all the people fleeing and moving out of the bay area is that.. it just feels to me like giving up. These people complain about all the problems in the bay area, and the same people being the most vocal about the crime problems and homelessness and drug issues, also happen to be people that have the tools (financially, socially, etc) to actually help solve the problems. But instead they just choose to leave and join another community that they envision will be a new utopia.

If people thought Tech bro's were hated before.. just wait until all the tech people move to other states and work remote and just get up and move every time they disagree with whats going on in their new communities. Never truly becoming part of the communities and only taking advantage of policies and circumstances they had no hand in building or creating.

To me that is a toxic cycle and no community anywhere can evolve and get better if the communities members are not invested and are only temporarily aligned when it suits them.

Not strictly enforcing license terms only deteriorates the standing of the license. A tweet or blog post is fine, but unless someone is willing to take TikTok to court over this the takeaway is clear - violate GPL if you want and nothing will come out of it.
They're a warning that a tornado has been indicated by radar or actually seen by a person.

Where I'm from I only ever remember them being issued when seen by an actual person, where I am now it's mostly if radar is showing it, it seems.
Great point. Ultimately there are always coercive forces that put pressure on companies and individuals to comply, even if the legal system isn't directly invoked to force compliance. The case you're making is important because implies that Facebook is being puppeted by the will of the government. If this is true, then Facebook IS the government. If one entity is controlled by another, then the separation between them, i.e., private corporation vs. government, is illusory.
It is normal for ICUs to run near capacity, at least in the large city I live in. 8% of all ICU intake was Covid related at the largest 'medical city' in the world. This is increasing week over week, and will likely rise some more going into Winter.

That said, deaths are very low year over year and this is in a city where the majority of the population wears no masks, and has a very low vaccination rate. While Covid isn't 'over', it's perceived relevance is waning, despite the constant barrage of news articles.

The emphasis on the entropy generation kind of confuses the point from my POV. What's important about the nozzle setup is that, by construction, it generates the JT throttling process. That is, the procedure is isenthalpic. Focus on the thermodynamic consequences of that.

Sorry for butting in. It took me a long time to get comfortable with throttling. Non-equilibrium stat mech stuff can really throw you (well, at least me) off if you come at it too microscopically at first.

Edit -- H. Callen's thermo book has a great little section on it. Best book on thermo out there if you're into a real postulate-and-construct approach. One of my favorite books of all time. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamics_and_an_Introd...
You're describing a public good, not a right.

If housing was a right, the government would be compelled to provide it for everyone, not matter their income or wealth, as it would have to be nonexcludable.
Rising prices have nothing to do with whether it is a competitive market.

I agree with most of the rest of your comment, but none of that means that the landlords are price setters.

Nor does it show that discussing supply is a "deflection."
Characterizing a Ctrl-C Ctrl-V of a publicly available, open-source codebase as government-coerced theft is hilariously overdramatic.
It's not an emergency anymore. Either you have non-emergency mechanisms for dealing with it, or you wasted the last two years. If you have to use emergency powers to deal with Covid today, you fail at governing.

The work companies put into ETL is absolutely bizarre from a business standpoint.

Say you want to build a new kind of hammer. Normally what you do is you pay a company for access to some facility that has forging process, and you put your effort into designing the hammer, working with the facility to get it forged the way you want, and selling it.

Building ETL pipelines from scratch is like building an ire ore mining facility, building diggers, trucks, shipping containers, trains, boats, iron smelting and forging equipment, and warehouses, on top of designing and selling the hammer. People today are so brainwashed by the idea that they need to be writing software that they go to these extreme lengths to build everything from scratch, when they should almost always be paying somebody else to do most of it, and only spend time working on your business's actual problem. Building factories and logistics chains should not be a problem your business needs to solve if all you need to do is build and sell a hammer.
To be more clear, I do not want Facebook to be responsible for societal impact, but rather to not even be able to exist because any for profit company that tried to pull this kind of widespread power over communications would have its growth ground to a halt by having to constantly defend itself against legal charges.

Crusades, jihads, revolutionary communism... movements held together by magical thinking don't need all or even most of their members to lead long and healthy lives, as long as they do a good enough job of killing off skeptics.
Not OP but the issue for me moving from a scooped keyboard (Kinesis) to a flat one (Ergodox) was reaching the top/bottom row comfortably.

On a flat keyboard, hitting that top row (especially edge keys like the 5 and 6) required either moving my entire hand or doing some weird reaching motion. And I wear a 4XL glove so I don't even know how other people deal with the top row at all. Being able to not move your hands as much doesn't sound like a big thing but it helped a lot with my wrist issues because I can find a comfortable position when I get started and never leave it until I stand up.

I'm currently on a scooped and fully split KB from bastardkb.com which is kind of the best of both worlds (scooped for reach, split for my shoulders, and custom firmware so I can use less keys overall). But if Kinesis offers that out-of-the-box it's a pretty easy choice for my next keyboard.

So I thought this whole thing was bullshit, then I read the blogpost from OpenJ9

What you're looking at is allocation of multiple apps inside of nodes in a cluster. With a JIT Server in each node, the memory required for each instance of the app is reduced, such that the effect is more instances can be fit in the same node size than before.

It reminds me of "bonuses" on equipment in RPGs. You lose 1 equipment slot to have it taken up by the item, but in return the rest of your equipment gets a bonus that more than makes up for the slot you can't use now.

I'm not a big free market guy, but this is basically "the free market" in action. The supermarket knows it can get cheap beef from elsewhere, and knows that there is profit in taking a public stand against deforestation. The result is this and frankly it seems right to me.
But that's more of a short term blocker, isn't it? Fab capacity shouldn't be a roadblock to pursuing it long term. I could definitely see a desire to take all of the security and efficiency features and use them in the datacenter. E.g. it seems a bit silly that my Mac is encrypted with special hardware etc, but as soon as I sync my data to iCloud that security disappears.
At this point, why are we even taking NFTs seriously? Like the whole premise of NFT was like people can copy paste stuff as they like from and to the blockchain. The only thing that you leave with is bragging rights because you have something on the blockchain registered as yours. Platforms should not be using NFTs as a way to validate things.
Absolutely but every little bit helps. A thicker atmosphere also means less radiation, thus less radiation shielding required. I don't have numbers on hand but from what recall it is a significant enough of a difference to worthy consideration.

FatELF exists, though not widely used, and would make more sense than adopting Mach-O, which has worse tooling than ELF. Because of tooling, it'd be preferable for Apple to switch from Mach-O to ELF in fact (though they won't do so, because that would require a lot of work and Mach-O is working fine for them).

With no minimum wage, you create a race to the bottom on wages in jobs that are currently minimum wage. No matter how little you pay, you'll find someone who is so desperate for scraps that they'll accept less.

And with that, you create a drop in the standard of living, where even having your own bedroom is considered a luxury.

> Some laborers aren't worth paying a minimum wage, they wind up earning nothing from not having work instead of what their true worth is and being able to build up skills.

No, what happens then is they work 3 jobs to survive and die an early death.

> I think it could also remove some negotiating power from laborers. Businesses can peg their wages at the minimum and balk at those asking for raises, they pay the legally mandated price for that tier of work after all.

That makes absolutely zero sense whatsoever, that someone would make MORE money if there wasn't a legal minimum? What?

Laborers don't have negotiating power in the bottom end. As I said above, there are enough desperate people to create a race to the bottom. If you eliminate the minimum wage, then you're not giving them leverage, you're just creating more desperate people.
> Traditional media creating so much buzz to slow down and make tesla look bad.

That's a complicated conspiracy theory. The truth is more simple: Tesla is making itself look bad.

5 years ago Tesla said that all of its cars being produced at that time had "the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver":

https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now...

That was a lie.

> FSD name is clearly aspirational.

Super. So when will Tesla start refunding everyone who paid for "full self driving"? Until the "aspiration" becomes an actual delivered product giving refunds is the only honest thing to do.
>Private industry does not have an inherent right to censorship

Facebook and Twitter both enjoy the rights bestowed upon them by the First Amendment to remove content as they see fit. Requiring Facebook and Twitter to host content that they don't want would violate their First Amendment rights.

> "the delivery service partner's dispatcher didn't follow the standard safety practice."

Amazon, not uniquely, has a business model based around devolving blame and recourse in a way that insulates them from the normal downside risk a business would have. I don't know if this is a consequence of how risk averse the world has become, but I believe it's a source of competitive advantage.

You call amazon about a problem, the only feedback they ask for is about the call center agent, who almost certainly has the least agency or autonomy of anyone in the process but is subject to all the blame. Uber is the same, any problem you have or recourse you want is directed at the driver or restaurant, when both are basically cogs in a machine. But it could never be the company's fault.

Here it's the same thing. It was the "delivery service partner" that was the problem. I'd believe that legally this could be true, but the root cause is still amazon offloading responsibility for any downside onto the "delivery service partner".

I don't know what the answer is, but I think there is some gaming of the system going on where these companies have found a way to offload risk that is not really fair.
> I mean, yes, the sirens are technically just a warning. But they don't go off until things get really serious. If you hear them, you need to get to actual shelter as quickly as possible.

I don't live in a tornado area, but I had always assumed tornado warnings functioned similarly to other storm warnings -- a "watch" indicates elevated activity and likelihood of a severe weather event, while a "warning" indicates danger is likely and you should take appropriate action immediately to avoid danger.
