The CDC's explanation "interpreted to mean that vaccines were 100% effective, which has never been the case for any vaccine, so the current definition is more transparent, and also describes the ways in which vaccines can be administered" is totally on point and correct. People didn't really think about vaccines before and it wasn't a political thing where people are looking for gotchas like "They changed the definition of vaccine!" Before this age, you could just simply say "Yeah, vaccines give you immunity" and didn't need to be hyperacurrate but now everything is scrutinized, even when they provide a better definition apparently.
The "impossible" part is trying to imagine a "flat" ADFC face.

There is no such "ADFC" face that can result in a triangle in the shape of DEF.

-------

To imagine what "ADFC" could possibly look like, I suggest trying to visualize the ABC-base at first, and then trying to imagine different "ADFC" faces to match the ABC-triangle with the DEF-triangles.

The only way you can get this shape to look like this, is if ADFC is bent or twisted somehow. No "straight/flat" ADFC could possibly connect the bottom with the top.

There is a way around it for people subject to a background investigation. The 4A gets suspended for them by EO12333. Technically not "the law" but you don't see Congress doing anything about executive overreach.
Hopefully you aren't equating "eigenvectors" to "complicated linear algebra question".

20 $50 million donations to various groups and $1 billion dollars is gone. You could probably do that in 5 years and still not come out as effective.
Is it though?

Was it malice when maintainers started adding those posinstall scripts asking for funding? which lead directly to the creation of `npm fund`, for instance. Was that also malice?

Given all the evidence we have - I think its murky. That's my point, at the end of the day.

Arguably, I could say that making millions of dollars off an open source library and not contributing back is malice - yet that argument is rarely given the same open and shut approval.

Mind you, this is bigger, IMO, than `faker.js`, this raises questions around open source software as a whole, that are relevant in this case and beyond

There's nuance in this conversation that is missing so far.
"Vaxxed and done" is a strange label for this sentiment:

"For more than a year, I did everything that public-health authorities told me to do. I wore masks. I canceled vacations. I made sacrifices. I got vaccinated. I got boosted. I’m happy to get boosted again."

I was expecting the article to be about people who, like me, are vaxxed and boosted and not really interested in getting more shots for this every six months perpetually.
They’re not making the pig more human, they’re removing the markers of ‘foreign’ that would make it an immune target. So it’s a nice vanilla organ that minimally attracts the attention of the immune system.
Covid also happened at the same time as a bunch of other political/media holy-wars, which is why it's so bizarrely an us vs. them issue in the US. If seat-belts had been advocated by people half the country considered untrustworthy for unrelated reasons, they wouldn't be so universal today.
> I haven't seen any evidence anywhere that deciding against getting the vaccine puts anyone else's health at risk.

How would you square this with unvaccinated people filling up hospitals preventing those with unpreventable health issues from getting care?

I wonder if it's possible that a pig heart might actually be better than an artificial one? I don't know enough about the state of the art in either to even guess myself.
Thank you. I've also been trying to get this across to other people as well. And here's the worst part. If and when another high-spread virus emerges in the future, there will not be a vaccine available at the beginning, which is also when hospital overwhelming is most critical. So we will be in the exact same situation. I can't believe no one is talking about improving the hospital infrastructure to handle the inevitable next virus. Are there things happening in this regard and I am just out of the loop?
I think your opinions are so high-minded and naive in the extreme as to be effectively useless. We have to operate in the real world, not some frictionless, utopian ideal that is never going to happen.
I dont think you are properly equipped to understand this reality etc...

Nation states send nuclear submarines to the bottom of the ocean to tap into communication cables.
You dont think there going to hack a couple of routers if the opportunity presents?

There just appears to be a remarkable complacency on national security issues in the west.

I wonder if its because every time the issue comes up, somebody always comes back with the predictable "we're just as bad" comment.
As if the idea that competing great powers using whatever resources they think will give them an advantage is some incredible insight that hasnt occurred to anybody else.

And no I'm not suggesting the west should stoop to the level of China.
There is a happy medium. But I am suggesting we deal with national security issues effectively rather than doing nothing because "we're just as bad".

Anyway regardless, I'm sure the CCP appreciates your naivety (or loyalty perhaps?).
To be fair, you could make the same argument that TLS is moot because everything at the other layers (routing, application, and even hardware) is extremely vulnerable to attack. MITM is still a very real thing.

If anything makes it moot, it's not other technology; it's social engineering attacks.
We just need to grow the organs in the lab.

For children it's close. In any case, the order of magnitude is 1 to 10,000 (for children)

I'm trying to think of a case in which Apple has used public opinion in this way. The closest I can come up with is Adobe Flash, but Apple was the one blocking a product on its platform then.

I have been working as an ML Engineer for a few years now and I am baffled by the bar to entry for these positions in the industry.

Not only I need to perform at the Software Engineer level expected for the position (with your standard leetcode style interviews), but I need to pass extra ML specific (theory and practice) rounds. Meanwhile the vast majority of my work consist of getting systems production ready and hunting bugs.

If I have to jump through so many hoops when changing jobs I'll seriously consider a regular non-ML position.
> For your second question, yes, Rust handles that well. If you depend on ">=1.0" and ">=1.1", you end up with a single copy of 1.1. If you depend on "=1.0" and "=1.1", you end up with both copies of the library. Every crate uses the version it requested.

IIRC rust only does that for MAJOR versions (1.1 and 2.0, or 0.2 and 0.3, since cargo consider releases before 1.0.0 to be major ones).
Sure, but the carrot has to be compelling from the distro end to do that.

For example, my distro (Fedora) has its own RPM packaged for Firefox that often runs a few days/weeks behind Firefox upstream. I believe this is because Fedora Firefox has its own QA that sometimes catches distro-specific bugs. I'm not positive. The "carrot" in switching to, say, the official Firefox flatpak that comes straight from Mozilla is that I might get the latest-greatest version faster from release, rather than waiting for Fedora QA.

But for Mint, it seems like they previously derived some revenue from having default search providers that differed from Mozilla's default. So the carrot that Mozilla is offering Mint would probably need to be better than "We think your users will like using a version closer to upstream." They'd presumably need some agreement in place to compensate for the revenue lost from having Yahoo or DDG be the default search provider.

Based on a comment from Clem in the page's comment section, it looks like they might either be getting some revenue either from Mozilla or from Google directly in switching the default search back to Google.
A young child faces far more risk of dying in a car crash on the way to pre-school or Chuck-E-Cheese than they do of covid, but I'll wager you didn't give up driving your kid around. Your child could get struck by lightning, or get bitten by a rabid racoon, but (hopefully) you don't dwell on the risks and live your life paralyzed in fear by them (yes, these risks are the same order of magnitude of a child dying from COVID). The same goes for having your infant or young child injected with experimental vaccines, whose long-term effects are just as unknown and unknowable as COVID.
> Is it, though? We've got here an article about a multibillion dollar company using its money and influence to peddle a view that's beneficial to them and trying very hard to make it look like it's not actually coming from them. This is absolutely not always the case.

Every multibillion dollar organization I'm familiar with has a PR team who's responsible for shaping news coverage in ways that benefit the company. We just don't normally think about it this way. Nobody looks at the coordinated release of reviews about a week before video game launches and says "aha, Nintendo has dishonestly manipulated the media once again".
They're constantly retooling their factories. My dad worked at several GM factories for nearly 40 years. I feel like every year or two GM would announce a huge spend per factory to retool/upgrade/etc.

For me, the thing that sucks most about IBS is the medication. The link between mind/body/pain/inflammation is pretty obvious when you start taking strong anti-inflammatory drugs, at least for me! Evidently, everyone in my family tree responds really poorly to steroids and other anti-inflammatory drugs - a relative of mine committed suicide after taking steroids for IBS with absolutely no evident mental problems before treatment, leaving behind his young family. Personally, I'd rather die early from my gut diseases than go back on anti-inflammatory drugs, even the modern biologic ones that supposedly have no side-effects. There's just no way to target inflammation with drugs without severely impacting the brain (at least with me and my family's biology).
> As a guy on the street, I only see a value of selling fake wife certificate. I do not see value buying it.

You just described the whole NFT scam. I would love to produce pngs I can sell for thousands of dollars. I won't buy NFTs not even for a penny.
Yes, adding in a second data point as well. Verizon directly is great in this one area nearby, but using Visible in that same area was painful for anything data related. Would show full signal bars with Visible, but actual data rates were throttled and/or strongly deprioritized.

You genuinely get what you pay for when you spend the extra dollars for the direct carrier relationship with AT&T and Verizon. All of the MVNO's as well as their own prepaid plans will not compare if the towers are busy.

I can't relate at all. The progress in artificial intelligence in all categories is fascinating and is in the modern day what electricity was at the turn of the century, during the time of Tesla and Edisson. It is not even fully understood how some state of the art AI achievements actually work to achieve the results, and what it has been able to solve in terms of previously unsolvable problems in computation has been fascinating.

The rapid consumerizaton of AR/VR tech is also pretty amazing given what the expected timeline for it was back in say 2015, when everyone was connected to a $2000 computer with wires and two sensors to play the one or two demos available.

A person's view of the world is usually just a rorschach test for their personal life. If you think the tech industry is slow/useless/uninnovative at the moment it likely just means you aren't personally doing the interesting work. You could change that by spending time learning the interesting tech and switching jobs to it, but the cynicism isn't relatable for those of us who deliberately work on interesting problems and continue to learn new and complex new things, rather than collect easy paychecks for boring work (they chose to do) then complain that life isn't exciting enough.
> the answer is a very clear "No" almost everywhere - those plug in inverters aren't permitted under NEC

Of course plug in inverters are not permitted under the NEC, just as kitchen appliances aren't permitted under the NEC, nor are the power lines outside your house permitted under the NEC. The NEC applies to premises wiring, which none of those things are. Plug in devices sold on the consumer market are regulated by UL/ETL/etc, and the power grid is designed by power company engineers working to some other standard. If you look at your service entrance you'll see the wires coming from your house are nice and thick as dictated by the NEC, but connected to a smaller aerial feeder that doesn't meet the sizing requirements of the NEC.

Your power company might have some private contractual prohibitions here and you may be opening yourself up to liability from the results of your actions - similar to them getting perturbed if you use a "suicide plug" to power your home from a generator. But it's not generally a priori illegal like you're making it out to be.

(Your point about overloading branch circuit wiring is very important though. I'd be more worried about feeding in between the panel and a large load, thereby putting extra current into the intermediate wiring.)
Increased density could help with packaging. You can already see this with the Lucid Air, which has a very deep frunk and trunk, as well as deep footwells. The Air also has full-size interior volume but with the vehicle length of a mid-size car. Better packaging enables sedan-shaped EVs, and also can enable crossover EVs with better ride height (since their skateboard can be thinner).

This could also enable removable battery modules. I could envision an EV with 150-200 mile range for everyday driving, with additional batteries kept at home connected to energy storage (like a Tesla Powerwall). When you want to go on a road trip, you just disconnect the modules and install them in the lower part of the frunk and trunk. The packs could also have other uses - you could load one into an electric motorcycle (much like the Zero Motorcycle already can). If you're desperate for a charge but don't have a plug near a parking spot, you can lug a module to a wall outlet. And we've seen how additional batteries enables additional current (and therefore performance), so EV sports cars could be lower-horsepower "daily drivers" until you install the batteries for a weekend drive.
The vertical integration of Amazon in the past 10 years or so makes me think those monopoly dogs can't hunt.
> I got bronchitis from my young daughter

Bronchitis is not a communicable disease.

Bronchitis is inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes which is typically caused by either smoking or viruses.

If you don't smoke, then what you got from your young daughter was almost certainly a virus.

Could have been influenza, or the common cold, or covid again.

I reviewed the available data on both the vaccine and the disease and decided that given my children’s medical history and my family’s medical circumstances, the risk/benefit calculus was firmly on the side of vaccination.
Has anybody ever thought of something like a real world NFT? Imagine if you took a bunch of dried plant pigments and mixed them with oil and smeared them onto a canvas. Because it is physical it couldn't be duplicated or double-spent and it has a simple materials-based minting cost. I don't think anybody has done this before and there is probably a large market for buying and selling something like this. These are early days.
Also, while pigs are naturally curious and definitely aren't dumb, I suspect our primate cousins are closer to us on the conciousness scale.

And yes, bacon. Combine the transplant with an offer on cheap pork, and we'll soon have heart transplants and bacon deliveries as a service. :D
On the other hand (and I am being flippant... Slightly) how do you know that removing this one gene doesn't unlock consciousness?
Personally, I think the risks from the Pfizer vaccine is low enough that it’s worth it simply to reduce the severity in case of reinfection. A free and very safe shot that did nothing more than reduce the time I felt like garbage by 1 day on average is easy an choice for me.

That said, quite a few people that had COVID before end up suffering far more the second time. As long as we are talking about individual cases, the first person do die of omicron was in their 50’s and had COVID before but never got vaccinated. But again even if we are talking about a 25 year old athlete you only get ~70 * 365 days, why spend more of them sick than you need to?
Why should I have to not drink and drive? If you're worried about car accients, you should stay off the roads!

Nobody had to upgrade. Anyone who accidentally upgraded because their dependencies had sloppy programming practices should be mad at their direct dependencies.

"deltacron" is pure memery just like "flurona" was a few days ago. something that comes and goes in the news cycle, people consume the fear porn, then a day or two passes and everyone's forgotten about it and moved onto the next thing while the fear instilled remains. I haven't kept up with this stuff because the whole thing is a joke at this point but a day or two ago when "deltacron" was announced, it was already being announced before the day's end that whoops it was a mistake... but it could still be coming!!
And the anti-discrimination morons look at that sort of thing and think it's discrimination against women and minorities.
Google Fi is an MVNO of T-mobile/Sprint (last I checked anyways). so if T-mobile blocks the private relay for their network, it could affect them too.

Also, Google Fi kinda sucks. They used to be the cheapest, but nowadays you can get better prices from other services. For example, Google charges $10/gb/mo, whereas Mint Mobile (another T-mobile MVNO) charges 4gb for $15/mo, or $30 for unlimited.

Google Fi is only cheaper if you use less than 1.5gb of data per month, and the service quality is probably the same.

...and that's not even mentioning all the privacy concerns attached to Google.
> It's the responsibility of "svgo" to make sure it's direct dependencies are alright.

No, it's your responsibility to make sure your dependency tree is alright.

Your personal definition of 'alright' may be more easily satisfied if the packages you choose to depend on autonomously practice some level of responsibility towards their own dependencies. Choose wisely.

But there is no way to dictate your requirements to dependencies, or impose some kind of responsibility or demand some kind of warranty. You can accept what is offered, or not. In fact, if you are using svgo, even indirectly, you have agreed to this: https://github.com/svg/svgo/blob/main/LICENSE

>THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

So svgo doesn't have to care and you can't make them. Even if they do care, there's no guarantee they will meet your standards - and you still can't make them.

If you want someone to blame, find someone willing to sign a contract that says you can blame them.

Efforts within NPM and github to control this situation are simply the bare minimum of case-by-case disaster mitigation, in the interest of reputation alone. If you're using their infrastructure, you apparently find this acceptable.
Define "outside".
