But France revoked the Passe Sanitaire and mutated it into a Vaccinal Pass, meaning you can’t get it using a PCR test or a previous infection, only the vaccine will be accepted.
> wonder if it would be possible to do automated rewrites of recursive functions as iterative ones.

Of course.

> specifically for cases where stack memory that grows in a recursive implementation can be replaced by a few long lived temporaries... like the good ol' fibonacci function.

Rewriting a recursive Fibonacci function to use a loop with an explicit stack doesn't do anything about the growth of memory. You'll need just as many stack elements. It's just an explicit stack that you've assigned to a variable rather than being the function call stack.

Fun fact: Apples tries to prevent you from using virtual audio devices like BlackHole with macOS's dictation and speech to text features. I've been unable to get macOS to output the high quality Siri voice to a virtual audio device for recording. It forces a lower quality voice.

Sadly this derailed my plans to use it as a free audio transcripter... (but there's better alternatives and a workarounds)

For that to be meaningful you need to compare the per capita rate of vaccinated and prior covid infected. That’ll show you very roughly how much protection each provides in a way that’s comparable.
Only to the extent that ICU shortages cause additional deaths. If the healthcare system can mostly handle the surge in hospitalizations, then it wouldn't make a difference.

Another factor to consider is that every one getting infected quickly, and partial herd immunity being established sooner, could expedite the repeal of COVID control measures, and the dissipitation of the climate of fear, which are both incurring significant health, quality of life, and economic costs.

The World Bank estimates that COVID and its associated policies has already pushed 97 million people into extreme poverty. UNICEF says "Schools still closed for nearly 77 million students 18 months into pandemic": https://www.unicef.org/lac/en/press-releases/schools-still-c...

In the US, fentanyl overdoses during the pandemic have surged to become the leading cause of death for the 18 - 45 demographic: https://thenationaldesk.com/news/americas-news-now/fentanyl-...

Scientists have long known that social isolation is deadly, and if there's one thing that COVID control policies increase, it's social isolation.
The issue with Kodi is, in my opinion, the same as with setting up a mame cab for playing roms : Perpetual Work In Progress. Users are spending way more time configuring, optimizing, and eventually breaking the whole thing than actually enjoying it.

On my side, i'm playing my content with my AppleTV through a Plex server on a Nas, using wired network, and I couldn't be happier. Using a professionnal, closed, solution, sometimes make things better.
Of course it's highly subjective but here are a few examples:

There's too much syntactic sugar for my taste to the point it gets diabetic.

Callable classes really? For example you can write MyClass()();

Underscore to mark a variable or a function private, but you can still use an underscore to declare a variable inside a function so it muddles the comprehension.
Are we going to lose some precious milliseconds if we have to write private in front of a variable?

There's also the need to use buildrunner for almost everything since the language wasn't thought out for modern use cases.
It works, but this is very inelegant IMHO. When I peak at the generated code I don't feel fluent in Dart quite the opposite.

Then there's the ultra strict linter that won't let me add an empty new line where I want. The resulting code is very compact and is harder to read.
You could look into Estonian e-residency for setting up a company outside of Spain. You’re usually still taxable in your country of residence within the EU, so it’s not a tax avoidance scheme, but it might change your personal insurance status? Just an idea, those 400€ sound awful…
Every time I've shown this to the designers, (full design team at a corporation, single designer at a startup, small design team) everyone says it looks cool but then it never gets used because nobody on the team has any experience using After Effects and no one has time to learn for cool looking but ultimately superfluous animations.
Does anyone know if Kodi offers streaming media over local network or internet similar to Plex?
If it's banned, it's probably not good.
Your experience echoes mine to a certain extent.

When searching for a media platform, I tried various ones including Kodi (and the various forks/environments like LibreElec et. al), Plex and others.

I also have a folder hierarchy which Kodi doesn't respect (very annoying) and played around with Plex as well.

However, I am unwilling to log in and share telemetry about my own personal library with Plex.

As such, I went with MythTV, which isn't as slick as Plex or Kodi, but does most of the job (that is, manage my local media library). It lacks in streaming options, including podcasts and the devs seem much more focused on the DVR than anything else.

That said, for what it does, MythTV is pretty good, but there's a lot it doesn't do.

Your logic is flawed.

1)

"That some studies show similar viral loads" - does not tell us about the net transmissiblity of the different populations.

You have to get COVID in the first place in order to have a 'viral load', but that inference won't take into account those who don't get it.

2)

From BC's late August Report (it was the first one that came up when I Googled):

"From Aug. 13-26, people not fully vaccinated accounted for 81.7% of cases and 85.8% of hospitalizations."

FYI they had 75% of the over age 12 with 1 dose and 85% with 2 doses at that time. (Same reference)

The data is decisive and shows that the virus is overwhelmingly spreading among the unvaccinated part of the population - and clearly a factor in the R0.

At that point, the unvaccinated make up ~25% of the population and 80% of the cases.

3)

Hospital resources are being drained by the unvaccinated.

There are some people who legit cannot take it, and there are some people who are, let's just say, 'truly mentally deficient' who we can't hold accountable for their actions.

But the vast majority of the 'unvaccinated' are irrationally and irresponsibly making a choice that is not only creating a much greater burden to the Health Care system - but they are also materially helping the disease spread.

---> COVID mostly a plague of the unvaccinated and they are externalizing harm and cost to others.

Well, the idea is to just heat them past any temperature they'd experience naturally such that they don't bleed anymore. The wood itself would still be saturated in awful chemicals.

For railroad ties specifically, I imagine it would be deemed way too much cost. But for say, house framing lumber... guaranteed termite free forever, I think people would pay for it.

It's going to be interesting to see how the relations with the US changes as the US hegemony dissipates.

I think Russia is going to be the main trading partner of Scandinavian countries before the decade is over.
Now, seeing Tupolev over the fields in the area would give you chills.

What's severe? being on the ventilator for a few weeks or long covid for the rest of your life?

People need to stop framing death or ICU are the only shitty outcomes of Covid. Long Covid is far worse.

As a counterpoint from primarily experience with higher level languages, not being able to distinguish strings from just any blob of bytes is something that’s consistently put me off lower level languages. Sure you can just treat it as a blob of bytes but… you can’t do anything with it with certainty. That seems to be the class of bugs you’re describing? But this isn’t an issue in languages where a string is a distinct type (even if dynamic).
"for adolescents" is an important qualifier. Seems like the eligible population is still way under 50%.
I remember seeing a few open source projects like that, but the issue was Chromecast requires DRM for apps like Netflix. Some like Plex and YouTube would work fine.

Maybe you could run it through a capture card and pipe that to whatever, but it's a lot more expensive.
> after using Kodi and similar software for many years (and enjoying it!), I just gravitated back to the basics. Want to watch a movie? Navigate to it in my file manager and play it with VLC. Music? Just use Winamp 2 or Audacious.

I do the same on my PCs, however in my bedroom Kodi is king. I use it on a Raspberry PI which has a good CEC implementation, which means one can use both the TV and Kodi from the same remote: super convenient. I also have a Bluetooth keyboard with trackpad and a 2nd SD with Manjaro Linux ready, but they stay mostly unused. I'm in the process of replacing the RPi with a Chromebox, which has a much better desktop performance than the RPi, but have to wait for the CEC-HDMI external interface to arrive since the Chromeboxes don't support it.

I recently discovered tld-list.com - finally a way to sort by renewal price rather than the standard introduction price so many places show!

This led me to porkbun (https://porkbun.com) - which I am considering using for some .top domains to try them out - if anyone has any experience with them please enlighten me!

I do not like godaddy since they went stock marker years ago, and was moving all my domains to uniregistry - but then godaddy bought them out - and somehow made the support worse - and then gave all my .top domains to some company that doesn't do US wording and stuff very well - and jacked the price - so I'm letting them expire there and getting new ones.

Given all the activism for cancelling online, I might try to find where strumfrunt got domaining from - really feel that domain names, dns, and pipe to /from the net should all be dumb-pipe / immune to X Y and Z pressures, but some of these places put PR reputation in the MSM as more important than principals and it's lame to deal with sometimes.

my 3 cents
I use a beamer instead of a tv but it is not complicated to dedicate a small computer like a gigayte brix or an old laptop and use the tv/beamer as the screen. Be it with kodi or using regular apps doesn't make a huge difference these days. With the advent of hidpi monitors, all modern OSes support scaling the icons/text/widgets so it is perfectly viewable from a few meters of distance.

I use a wireless keyboard+trackpad combo as a remote which I leave out of the way inside my living room table when not in use.
> all the things

Include removing "all the things" from your vernacular. It's not 2010.
It wasn't "involuntary," no one forced me into taking the shower.
Oh the irony.

In the reserves for a given work weekend there is a budget to fund meals for soldiers. If a given unit has a meal preparation section there is also a budget to fund meal preparation, but if that given section cannot prepare meals they will just issue MREs for lunch.

The typical soldier would rather just go buy fast food. Those soldiers are required to pick up a MRE whether they want it or not to force them to sign for a meal which qualifies the meal budget. Unused money in the budget is not replenished in the next fiscal cycle so it must be spent to qualify it’s need. Then also for accountability and time limits many soldiers are not allowed to leave, depending upon unit leadership, to buy lunch if they have an MRE.

Officers, on the other hand, are required to buy lunch, because they make too much money. As a result they cannot sign for said MRE because they are not accounted for in the budget. This means officers must leave the unit to find lunch elsewhere.

The people with the most time flexibility who don’t MREs are forced to consume them. The people who are most busy and would prefer to eat them, so as to not waste the time driving around, are not allowed to have them.
I don't know, my experience of toddlers is that while they are good judges of character (as the article says), they are often hypocrites themselves! Lying seems to come pretty naturally, as well as selfishness.

Of course, their judgement of moral character is often distorted if it affects themselves. Deny them anything they want to do (like, no, we can't eat candy for dinner, or no, you can't touch the hot stove), and it can be basically as bad as the end of the world!
> Want to watch a movie? Navigate to it in my file manager and play it with VLC.

That's how I use Kodi on an (otherwise) headless HTPC (a RPi) connected to my TV. You don't need to build and maintain a content library, plugins, etc. Select Videos - Files, navigate to a folder, select the file and enjoy.

> What are people's favorite "killer apps" for software like Kodi? Is it just convenience and I've have had bad luck?

Control via a TV remote and no need to hook up my laptop to the TV every time is a killer convenience feature for me.
What a callous way to put it! Patients suffering from diseases & conditions aren't trying to swab some magic block-dust on problems. They have symptoms & are desperate for help. Their ability to invest time in & explore possible conditions doesn't match up to a medical degree, but it's still considerable, and in spite of there being a lot of fluff & misconstruable & useless information, there's a ton of real, valuable, & good information too.

It does have to suck to have a lot of badly informed people parroting silly ideas they casually picked up online. But to so callously write off everyone, to so easily disregard any opinion & information other than your own, with what limited time you've got to examine a patient? Detestable, just absolutely revileable: this person has deeply failed their oath.

I also don't think your scenario is fair. The customer isn't just showing up & ordering you around. As a doctor, the patient is the product. The product is speaking for itself, asking for help. It's also paying you fairly well for your time & services. And as I said above, there's a good chance the product is well informed about itself. To write this off as a case of idiots making pointless requests- I can not disagree hard enough about what a callous, disregardful view this is. There are plenty of times when yes, the patient has fed themselves garbage, the patient is way off base, but let them not be so easily out of hand dismissed, let not the workplace maintain such a sense of absolute smug over the idiot rubes of the world.

That is basically not true, by your own reference.

Did you mix up the colours on the chart?

Most of those hospitalized are unvaccinated.

Since June, by far most cases are among the unvaccinated.

Given a ~75% vaccination rate, the fact that >75% of cases are 'unvaccinated' implies strongly that this is an issue of unvaccinated - both in 'spread' and number hospitalized.

The only place the data diverges is in the last 2 weeks - i.e Omicron where the gap is closing with less vaccine protections, however, the data out is indicating the Booster shot is as effective against Omicron as it was against Delta.

As Boosters are given out, you'll again see the big gap of spread/hospitalzattions among unvaccinated, with the caveat that Omicron may possibly not be as likely to put people in the hospital.
Yes but the law already covers this case. so why call for a ban when the law must just be enforced?

Measles is way more infectious and does achieve herd immunity at around 95% vaccinated.

Question is, can we get 95% immunity to Covid, as opposed to “benign but still infectious”.
But if you are living with the current performance just fine, why do you have to seek a faster one.

However, it does become my culture once my entire city is plastered with posters for it, its music plays on every radio twice a day, my children play with toys based on its characters, and/or conversations with my friends refer to it years after the thing came out.
It's planned to have feature parity with all the intrinsics that are available in the wild, for any CPU architecture. The difference with C is that we want to make the intrinsics part of the language; not a compiler extension. So, while you could do compile-time CPU feature detection to check if an intrinsic will lower to machine code and choose a different implementation, you could also just express the code with the intrinsics and let the compiler decide how to lower it. It will use shims for any machine that does not have native instructions.

Anyway, please file feature requests for missing SIMD intrinsics!
