> Maybe I don't see the full complexity, but it seems to me like an implementation detail, when setting up the routing tables to discover IPng capability, for example using a dedicated ICMP structure. Compared to upgrades required for BGP etc., this is trivial.

I don't see how you could ever discover a reliable route, because when a packet is routed to the right place you can never know whether it was routed correctly because all the hosts in between understood IPng or it was accidentally routed to the correct place by an IPv4 router - in which case packets following the same route will likely get misrouted as that router's routing decisions change in response to shifting load etc.. You'd have to have a kind of ICMP structure that was never routed by IPv4 routers - but then we're right back to having a completely segregated IPng network.

> IPv6 is in a way "naturally protected" against such a "short-circuit" due to the different structure and IP version of the packet, but fundamentally it's the same problem, you can't expect an IPv4 box to understand it.

Right, but that's much easier to deal with. If you have IPng as an extension of IPv4 then you're practically guaranteed nondeterministic routing loops that affect some but not all packets, and that's much harder to deal with than just not having a route.

> The fundamental complaint against IPv6 is that it requires operator intervention on each internet connected box to operate. Whereas a virtual IPng mesh over existing infrastructure could be automated completely, when a box is upgraded it will respond to ICMPs from peers and start seeing the extended space.

What's the part that makes a difference? People have experimented with things like silently enabling IPv6 on an OS upgrade; the reason it's a bad idea is that some percentage of IPv6 routers etc. will be misconfigured, and that would still be the case with IPng.

I would like to push against moral judgement being used to determine if treatment should be offered at all. (To be clear: I’m a fully vaccinated and boosted person that masks consistently.)

My understanding is that the field of medicine is heavily against this because they have historical cases where moral judgement to deprive care have resulted in human rights abuses and medical neglect due to bigotry. It might end up disproportionately affecting the homeless, those afflicted with addiction, single mothers, and the poor.
Wow, that is amazing. Thank you for creating it and sharing.

I'd ask you how it's so, so fast but I doubt I'd grok the answer.

Rip the nba has been decimated by the virus. At what point do we just accept it?
This is incorrect. Vaccines DO reduce (to different extents based on people and variant) infection and transmission:

1. It’s harder for the virus to enter your body
2. If it gets in, you will get less sick (lower chance of symptoms)
3. Your body will fight it off faster
4. The virus has a harder time replicating in your body

Due to 2, 3 and 4, the ability to transmit virus to others goes down.

> (...) my example was just designed to be something that might be somewhat more recognizable (...)

If your goal was to use that poor example to support the idea that people stick with subsets of C++ because of reasons, that example failed to support the assertion. Thus it makes no sense to stick with a patently wrong observation just because it's easier to recall.

Getting back to the topic, as far as I know there are only two features of C++ which are up for debate regarding their adoption: exceptions, and template metaprogramming. The exception-handling debate only makes sense in very low-level applications and refactoring legacy exception-less code, which in practice is not anyone's case. The template metaprogramming debate typically boils down to YAGNI and the need to avoid resume-driven development. Nevertheless, both features are used extensively, whether directly or indirectly (see STL), and in general there is no reason to bother debating whether people should use it or not, unless you have very specific requirements in mind (I.e., avoid generating magical code in embedded applications, or in very high performance applications where you feel you need tight control over everything down to which instructions are generated).
A year ago this would've been called a conspiracy theory. Saying that this would happen on Facebook or Twitter would've been called misleading or even got you banned.

There is no FPS message that allows you to unilaterally reverse a payment as a sending institution. It requires the consent of the receiving institution, and there’s no guarantee they’ll consent, or even have the ability to.

If the person receiving the money has moved it on, then it gone, FPS BER won’t save you. No receiving institution is going to voluntarily take on liability for another banks fuck up. At best they help you recover the money because the scheme makes them be helpful, but that’s no guarantee of actual recovery.

It was bugging me why I knew it was a famous novel when I hadn't read it in or out of school. When I woke up, I remembered - in my freshman psychology class many years ago, we were given a choice of literature to do a presentation on, and one of them (which I did not choose) was Siddhartha, also by Hermann Hesse. And the professor talked about Steppenwolf.

Hacker News is about preserving its culture and maintaining a high signal to noise ratio, as well as avoiding the Eternal September effect. It isn't a space for free organic discussion, it's a space for curated, thought provoking discussion.

Conversation here is steered and controlled aggressively on multiple levels in the name of quality control, including making it purposely easy for the crowd to censor anything they want, for any reason.

Think of it less as your local pub and more the water cooler at work, except HR posted a lengthy policy about water cooler conversations on the wall, which seems to get longer every week, and the boss is always glancing out of his office, and everything you say around that water cooler goes into your performance review. Also sometimes you'll find the water doesn't dispense but only for you, because apparently that's dependent upon a metric you weren't aware of and at some point you fell under the threshold and were never told but from now on you just have to stand there holding your empty cup like a shmuck.

I don't know what the "pub" equivalent of HN is. I don't think it exists and if it does it's probably already infested with incels and edgelord tools.

> I have ... extremely high standards for everything ... it causes me extreme distress ... to have to deal with things that are less efficient ...

That's somewhat of a curse when it comes to (most) software engineering, but doubly so for languages like C++ which:

1. Have many decades of baggage (40 + C's baggage from before).

2. Have backwards compatibility and non-breakage as one of their goals.

3. Are not designed by a single person or unified entity, but by a committee representing a diverse array (excuse the pun) of interested parties.

4. Have a slow evolution process which favors consensus and partial and gradual adoption of ideas.

Such a language will inadvertently fail to satisfy the author's sensibilities and expectations. He is certain to get frustrated about issues with the language which don't get addressed, proposals which come up and languish for years and years, limited changes which seem half-assed, etc. - and that's even without being active in the circles around the standards committee.

That's as far as the language is concerned.

---

I can't speak to what people in those circles are like personally; I've never been in touch with any of them except barely with one or two (and one was nicer while the other not so much). But I can certainly relate to developing a dislike for a programming language because you've seen "how the sausage is made" and have an aversion to it.

I've had this happen in other initiatives in my life. You want to give something your all, really take it forward, you have good ideas, which people even recognize, if pressed, as such - but it's like you're trying to push an elephant in one direction or another (or an Ent, I guess). It just won't budge, and when you try to hard you get chaffed at best and injured at worst. And there's often zero recognition of your effort.
Fraud would require prosecution. Is Edmonton going to prosecute Minister of Employment for the directive? Or the HR dept for the illegal classification (is it illegal if given a Minister directive)? Does this get challenged in Canadian courts?
Exploring trends on twitter doesn't work. I'm in Germany. There is a list of terms currently trending. I click on one. And if it is even remotely not superspecific in general or to German language then I will get shown tweets from whatever part of the world and that mainly. My trick is to add "lang:de" to the search but that is annoying and doesn't work reliably. They should have a way to actually explore a trend - if "Covid" is trending in Germany all of a sudden then this is likely not directly related to some tweet from India about "Covid". So annoying.

I mostly go on twitter to get perspectives from my professor of choice on Corona stuff:

“Doesn’t prevent” isn’t the same thing as “doesn’t reduce”.
In most places with seatbelt laws: yes
I can understand why the push for vaccines even though they don't stop spreading and catching it. They seem to improve chances of survival and lessen chances of severe disease.

That said, if the government takes away benefits, then it should give back all the taxes withheld on one's salary before it does that.

On another note, personally I don't see any other solution to the pandemic, other than everybody/most people gaining some kind of natural immunity. Places requiring some form of green pass are none other than VIP superspreader events, where the Green Pass is the VIP ticket. People holding the Green Pass, will then go to meet others who may or may not be vaccinated, but who will eventually catch Covid.

If you get enough, you can downvote but I'm wary of doing that outside of obvious trolling or maliciousness.

Also, what definition of "unlawful" are they using? If they are blocking installation of apps which are against the laws of the country it's being used in, I don't see the issue. On the other hand, using this as an avenue to extend reach outside the jurisdiction would be bad.
Twitter is good for a few things, but they all have alternatives.

My healthy uses for Twitter (as opposed to my using it as part of my studying of the impacts social media has on its users/trolling/shitposting) are:

1. Local events, governments, and establishments. It's a great way to get information on things like road closures, last minute weather adjustments, ideas for places to go around town, etc.

2. Professional orgs or academics in areas that I'm interested in. I prefer organizational Twitters because there's usually some sort of social media policy preventing them from Tweeting about politics.

Often, trains and subways will straight up not run because "there were leaves or snow on the tracks" or whatever. Like, OK? No other city I've ever lived has had that problem, lol? (let alone that often! it happens all the time)

Punctuality is pretty bad, which wouldn't be a problem if frequency was good, but it's not, so...

It can be pretty unsafe and unpleasant.

Basically, it's "OK" in inner city and immediate surroundings, but quickly gets a lot worse the further out you get.

Sure, that's 'normal e-commerce', even the price on it's own is 1910 times the median crypto wallet in the US. And to be honest, that's a pretty low sales volume.

I think I have plenty of e-commerce experience ;). The % of crypto interest for selling/buying goods is neglectable to zero for online shops.

The median amount of money in crypto in the US is 191 $. So "the new generation" you're talking about is really poor or just using it as a shot to the moon. Whatever you think is appropriate.

Wait, do I understand this correctly that because you have heard of cases happening in vaccinated people, without studying them as broad populations, you think there isn’t a statistical difference in vaccinated and unvaccinated people as a population?

Why?
It’s hard to say, maybe the vaccine didn’t work on you.

Or maybe it saved yours and your girlfriend’s life.

It’s hard to say on a case-by-case basis which is why we depend on population-level data.
lack of proper early treatment is why the virus has killed so many. The vaccines do not work as they were EUA approved to do.

It's a great analogy because the no-harm-to-others argument doesn't apply in either case.

In an incident, an un-seat-belted occupant can turn into a projectile and harm or kill others in the vehicle that might be wearing seatbelts.
You really don't see how you're playing into exactly the fallacy they're critiquing?
Why? Seatbelts greatly reduce deadly harm for people in the cars and outside of it.

There are many occurrences where someone died because the body of a person in a crash who wasn't wearing a seatbelt just crashed into them.
> The unvaccinated are banned as means to put social and financial pressure on individuals to get the vaccine. It is an unfortunate misconception that any of the currently-approved intramuscular vaccines reduce transmission to a meaningful degree.

Vaccination reduces the infection rate. [0] You can't transmit the virus if you aren't infected in the first place. Other studies have shown that people with breakthrough infections have a shorter period in which they can transmit.

And it turned out 93% was not coming from the study in https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/118/12/e2026153118.full.pd..., they just reference https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5863094/ , but that nowhere mention the number 93% and it’s abstract give much more sensible data:

Delivery of the two doses of vaccine needed to achieve >90% immunity is accomplished by routine immunization of infants at 9–15 months of age followed by a second dose delivered before school entry or by periodic mass vaccination campaigns. B
This is obvious dangerous rubbish. Most people contracting the virus don’t do so in offices anyway, so this can’t possibly be true even if it eliminated office transmission completely.
