This might sound a little callous, but I wonder if it's a long term net positive.

In the short term, it's a detriment; they will have to struggle more and will encounter more difficulties in socialization. But that's not necessarily a Unique problem, there have always been kids with these kinds of problems, if not at this rate. And on this short term we're decreasing mortality from covid and hopefully keeping hospital resources available to minimize mortality from other causes.

Over the long term, decreased mortality is generally a net societal gain. An increase of people with issues socializing will result in an increase in the market for solutions, tools, community, and support that help with this kind of problem. These solutions would help both the pandemic babies And those who would normally struggle, and would be available to future generations too!

I think the popularity of this notion comes from the fact that it's one of the few effects upon happiness that doesn't wash out over time. People adapt to changes in circumstance remarkably quickly, adjusting their expectations to the new normal and ceasing to derive any pleasure from it (the "hedonic treadmill"). A long commute seems particularly hard to adjust to, and thus the negative utility of a long commute often outlasts the positive utility of e.g. the higher salary you attain by the commute.

What's absolutely disgusting is you misrepresenting my views like that in order to smear me just because you don't like the fact that I have a different opinion about China. If you read that thread it is perfectly clear that I merely pointed out that different opinions about the situation exists without giving my own view, but that's not acceptable to you because you seek to doxx. To be perfectly clear, if that wasn't already so, I am against any kind of sexual assault and I support an investigation into corrupt officials. Thank you very much.
Your "obvious magnitude difference between the two" is an interpersonal wellbeing comparison claim, the thing you earlier thought impossible. Progress.

"A more interesting question from the utilitarian perspective is ..."

In general the intervention priority in actual health care is guided by utilitarian inspired health economics calculations. Because even if we would want to treat all migraines fully and prevent all premature death there are limits to time, labor and resources. Consult any health economics textbook for an overview, for example "Cost-Effectiveness Analysis in Health: A Practical Approach, 3rd Edition". Can you reply with specific critique of where such established methods run afoul and what alternative you suggest that we replace them with in day to day health care priority work? Focus on the sections about QALYs and, since your hypothetical involved a comparison with death, look especially at the value estimation method called "standard gamble" https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/...
Malicious script can (1) fingerprint and detect lab machines and therefore not do bad thing — this is arbitrarily easy if Google test lab is the first to ever execute their script, (2) over time build a graph of IPs, geos, test machine characteristics that essentially allow them to avoid the world’s entire test lab infrastructure (there’s only a fixed number of test lab providers in the world since it’s so expensive to set up this infrastructure), (3) yes, bypassing testing like this is a violation of ToS, but that is fairly meaningless as entities and IPs are cheap to incorporate, (4) not sure what you’re saying about permission policies across its domains? Google does have such policies unless I’m missing something.

The US _removed_ troops from Taiwan when they recognized the PRC. China has had every opportunity to bring Taiwan into its orbit by simply having enough sense to not threaten Taiwan so much as to to force it to seek out allies against it. Taiwan has shown that it clearly considered business interests to trump any differences in political philosophy. If China would simply declare that it wouldn’t attack Taiwan, then the US wouldn’t have an in any longer. The fact that Taiwan can be used strategically against China is due to China’s shortsighted thinking and nothing else. It’s complete inability to treat neighboring countries like Taiwan as anything but vassals is mind blowing. The PRC government is playing a dangerous game.

Then you clearly either haven't read enough of my tweets, or you don't know official CCP positions as well as you think you do in order to differentiate my views with official CCP positions. Do I need to copy a few links where I disagreed with CCP official position?

If you think my views are too much like CCP's, you should talk to more mainlanders. There's a way deeper rabbit hole out there.

Yes I have a different opinion than the mainstream western one. So what? I can have my own legitimate, independently researched opinion, of which some parts may or may not align with other actors because that's what I happen to believe in based on research results.

Who is "we" and "they"? The west vs China of course. This was, after all, the context to which I was replying to. Not sure how you missed that context.

Pluralistic ignorance is one of the ideas that comes up in the article, though not with that label. As such, it is a helpful starting point and it is easy to understand.

I thought the article made interesting points, but could have done so far more succinctly. By comparison, when I read Richard Stallman's stuff, I don't always agree with it, but I'm usually impressed by how concisely he is able to say things. SSC is too often the opposite.
Well thank goodness blessed Apple are so virtuous and privacy focused, otherwise this would be a real shit-show.
I am not done with university yet, so I don't speak confidently. But I'm afraid I have no special perspective, I just echo what I hear a lot: Learning by doing is probably the most important, but structured courses provide a theoretical and practical foundation that fills in a lot of important gaps that I would have had if I were only self taught.
Also the landmass referred to as “China” has constantly changed throughout history. For example today China _is_ unified, but Taiwan is not a part of it.

I am French as well, and proud to be one.

France weights exactly nothing in such politics.

Let's take an easier case: the hijacking of the Estonian plane over Belarus to imprison Roman Protasevich (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryanair_Flight_4978).

Everyone was outraged, Macron had his martial face to say that we will not tolerate this (I voted for Macron, to be clear). What happened? Exactly nothing. And this is against a clown regime backed by Russia who has vital interests in Europe. We dod not have the power to force Putin to do anything.

We are dependent on China like we are dependent on the US. Each of these countries will fuck us up the moment we get out of line (US did it many times already - the latest being the Australian submarines, but also our interests in Iran (the US said: either you move away from Iran or you will have problems. We asked the EU for help and eventually moved away as instructed)).

So our Napoleonian idea of a great country that everyone fears is just in th ehead of some people.

If we wanted to weight whatever, EU would need to be united. This is not happening with the current EU structure.
You can’t do hourly in London, the lowest you can go is a day rate, hours being 1:1 with fees is a great way to leave money on the table as a contractor. As a contractor you want to structure your deliverables on your terms so you can choose how the spend your time. Alan Weiss wrote a lot about this and his writings changed my life. Also, if you’re hourly in London you can’t claim to be independent and you’ll get smashed on tax as HMRC will treat you as a perm employee because your client controls your hours and activities.

How do clients get screwed with fixed fee? Clients should pay for value, not hours sat in a chair.
There are mechanisms that could cause that (“original antigenic sin”) and it does happen with dengue fever. Of course, it’s not true here, but it was reasonable to think it might be in 2020.

And covid vaccines being spike-only may be less effective against variants than whole-virus vaccines or actual infections. But flu shots manage to be ineffective a year later with whole viruses in them, so maybe that wouldn’t help.

I agree with Alan Weiss, lawyers are unprofessional and mostly terrible at maximising income. They charge 1:1 hours to fees which is a bad deal for a professional.

Multiple inaccuracies there.

Crick and Watson certainly didn't discover DNA as the substrate for Mendelian inheritance, that was known long before. They (in collaboration with Rosalind "don't talk to me about this woman" Franklin) discovered its 3D structure.

Africans do have Neanderthal DNA, up to 0.3%.

The post tries very hard to make it look like 'Out of Africa' is wrong and not the mainstream accepted by the majority of scientists. Admixture doesn't change that.

Also, isn't Razib Khan a "scientific racist"? (Protip: when someone's wiki page has a 'Controversies' tab it doesn't look good) I remember him being huge into 'HBD' despite not being credentialed in any way beyond dropping out of his PhD program to get in on the 'consumer genomics' grift. Not a good look imo.

I believe this comment says more about yourself than it does about others.
For me, the special part is truly viewing any job as just that: a job.

I no longer assess my worth as a person as a function of job title, salary, or anything else.

I take contracting work primarily and expect absolutely nothing more than a paycheck. Work is a transaction and I deliver what I can and am not a jerk.

Almost every disposable penny goes toward physical fitness. My spouse happens to be cut from the same cloth, which is a big plus.

We don't live extravagantly unless you count the money for fitness, but we consider that to be an investment and not a frivolous expense.

Satisfaction in life for me comes from every angle EXCEPT my job, and that's my secret.
I don't think we'll ever see eye to eye on this. You clearly forgot what life was like before the news scared us into shutting down and will never feel comfortable operating in society again. That's fine, but don't bring others down with you.
> Lithuania … got basically paid by the US to provoke the PRC

Any links on that?
That's because Taiwan had maintained the One China Policy. This worked very very well for decades. It's only recently when they are becoming more serious about true independence that things are souring.

Furthermore, China can no longer afford to use empty threats when US warships are inceasingly sailing in China's backyard. Things weren't so militarily contested before.

When an AirTag is assigned to an iCloud account, and a device (say an iPhone) is with you, then you shouldn't get these messages. But if one of you didn't bring their phone but, for example, the keys, you will get these messages, yeah.
Yeah, let's not hand that sort of data to the credit card companies. It might be a good use case for homomorphic encryption--where the transaction processor computes a go/no-go result without knowing why (and then you scan a QR code and decrypt on your device).

I was thinking of having it decoupled from payments, sort of a more customizable replacement for the ID-checks that we currently do when buying alcohol. I think you could do zero-knowledge trickery to avoid the privacy problems.

But then again, an API for a third party to cut off your access to resources might be too juicy of an abuse-enabler to be worth building.
One of the things I do know about my great grandmothers of several centuries far back (and maybe she is also one of yours if she is a common ancestor), is that she must have been an obese woman, even for the standards of the day. We’re talking late 1400s or so. This woman indeed must have been so fat, that at the time of her death the earth was flat, but when they buried her it became round.

We should just apply these same rules to driving, full stop. So many people are killed by inattentive drivers every year; even a short timeout from driving (15 min or so) in response to inattention would probably reduce these killings drastically.
> The pace of change is faster than the average person can keep up with and still be competent.

The pace of change is faster than the average person can keep up with each change, but because more and more new technologies and niches are being created, there are more and more opportunities to be competent in a certain niche.

It's also so much about your mindset. Seeing the difference in positive and negative mindset between you and the comment root is eye opening. When you think everything is "useless historical trivia" and is "depressing", of course anything you try to learn will be useless, tiring and depressing.

One of the things I'm trying to really improve in my own personal life is my mindset. I have/had a mindset similar to yours (I'm much younger too) and I've noticed how draining it is to my overall mental health. I'm trying to be more optimistic and positive about things. Life is too short to be depressed and upset about something you spend 1/3 of your waking hours doing.

Catching up is going to require a lot of investment from a lot of different people over a long period of time, and in many cases will probably fail, and from what the evidence in this particular study shows is that the high impact group so happens to be (predictably) those of lower SES - read that as the poor get poorer.

That does not sound hugely different from China and Taiwan, which, despite the bluster, also de facto recognize each other in all sorts of ways like having quasi-diplomatic representatives, issuing travel documents to each other's citizens, etc.
The logical conclusion is to move to the US, then.
But seriously, the software industry concentrates in the US. The high salary represents (in part) this concentration rather than something about the US itself.
Thus, it makes sense that companies are not looking outward - employees that are worth this kind of salary have already moved to the US. Similar to how other industries chose other places to concentrate. Any "market" of numerous agents requires an agreed-upon "marketplace" - not just geographically, but also legally.

\*.safeframe.googlesyndication.com is Google's implementation of the IAB's safeframe standard[0], which is basically a cross origin iframe with an API that's exposed to the embedded 3rd party code (the ad).
This is how its HTML looks like (some attributes removed for readability):

<iframe src="https://\*.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-38/html/container.html" title="3rd party ad content" sandbox="allow-forms allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation" allow="attribution-reporting"></iframe>

As you can see, it has both sandbox[1] and allow[2] attributes.
The former restricts certain behaviors of the embedded code (most notably, navigating the top window without user activation), and the latter restricts it from accessing certain APIs - this why the author saw errors in the console.

The script at https://cdn.js7k.com/ix/talon-1.0.37.js is an ad verification library developed by Verizon Media (formerly Oath), and it does, among other things,, fingerprinting for bot detection purposes (because they want to prevent ad fraud). It was served together with the actual ad media (so called "creative") into the safeframe.

This a relativity begin case. Iv'e seen much more terrible stuff, from fingerprinting for user taking to straight out malware being served in ads. It's a wild west (or web).
