If it's ever being turned into a string and stored or transmitted it's always better to use a standard base64 encode to keep the string to 22 chars instead of the standard 36/38 chars.

You can also use base85 and go to 20, but you get into some funky chars there.

Death rate peaks happen about three weeks after case load peaks. This has been very consistent through the pandemic (at least everywhere that has good test reporting), you can play with graphs at https://91-divoc.com/ or elsewhere to see the effect.

Certainly if omicron had the same behavior as previous variants, we'd know by now. Continued worries aren't about severity lag, but about whether or not there's something else different about omicron. It's worth being safe and cautious. But nonetheless the best evidence we have says that this is probably a very safe variant and a near-best-case outcome (i.e. everyone gets sick rapidly and we reach herd immunity rapidly with minimal severe cases, vs. everyone "eventually" getting delta with much worse outcomes).
Reasons Pistachios Are So Expensive
I've been looking for something just like this. Does it support migration from Confluence? I glanced over the features section and didn't see mention of that, but perhaps I missed it?
WhatsApp is 13 years old, like it or not, it is not a fad. I've seen it used on Nokia's with Symbian and series 40 candy bar phones 10 years ago. Outside the USA it dwarfs iMessage and will continue to do so for a very long time. Everyone in my extended family uses it, from 15 to 85 years old.
Those programs have certainly gained a lot of features in the past 10 years. But they're just as user-unfriendly as they were before. Look at OpenOffice from 10 years ago vs LibreOffice today. The window is more cluttered with buttons and toolbars, but the experience for a MS Office or Mac Write user who sits down for the first time is about the same.
There is no "worldwide conspiracy against nuclear power plants".

(1) It does not violate laws--it is all wholly legal, from beginning to end--so, no "conspiracy".

(2) It is mainly in the US, so not "worldwide". And,

(3) It is not "against nuclear power": nukes are the gravy train, how could they be against nukes? They love nukes, and want us to love them; just not enough so to complete them.

You would only lose access to music not saved in an accessible location (and purchased after DRM was removed unless you took the steps to get drm free tracks[1]) and also software bought on the App Store.

[1]funny story: I have one (or more) tracks in my music library that a friend shared with me almost 20 years ago when we were in college and he added me as one of the 5 computers that could play the tracks. Every time I’ve moved my library to a new computer it asks me to log into that account to approve that track, but it won’t give me a list of the tracks so I can delete it/them. It isn’t enough of an annoyance that I’ve tried too hard to find them.

For me, it was about ranking up. I'm harsh on myself when ranking up, these are the possible scenarios:

1. You play well, but your teammates play poorly. You lose the game, you feel bad.

2. You play poorly, but your teammates play well. Whether you win or lose, you feel bad.

3. You play poorly, your teammates play poorly. You feel bad.

4. You play well, your teammates play well. You win - the only happy scenario -, but even then there's going to be complaining and whining by everyone in the game.

If your win rate is something like 55%, you're going to experience a lot of the bad scenarios, even though you're ranking up in the long term. Once it's an addiction, you start the game already in a bad state of mind, as you hate that you're wasting your time on a pointless game anyway.

The point is, ink extortion seems to thrive on pricing tiers for different markets, just like content extortion does.
Well, the article says:-

At the beginning of all these craziness the reason for shutdowns is to flatten the curve. We did not have vaccines and hospitals were under stress. I think we did a right thing.

I’m not sure what is the goal now? We have vaccines and ICUs are not getting filled. Yeah, Covid can be though for some but oh well… we also have alcholism, drug addiction, flu, mono, etc. We cannot solve all.

I guess we all need to come to realization that COVID is here to stay and everyone will be eventually exposed to it. Vaccinated or not.

> if and when we make the transition to solar power and windpower

I love people who write about transitioning to full renewables as if it's something that's inevitably going to happen. Meanwhile, we still don't have the tech to make it even close to economically viable. Maybe we'll get there at some point, maybe we won't - but there's a whole subgenre of pundits who are already speculating about second-order consequences of such full-renewable world (in the same manner as in around 2017 or so everyone was speculating about the world in which self-driving cars are a reality, how many jobs it will cost etc.).

Also, the author is evidently counting wood towards fossil fuels, which shows that his understanding of what a fossil is is lacking.
Other ideas as I struggle to understand the current state of affairs: maybe the vaccine is really effective at preventing transmission, but only for some period, say 1 month to 6 months after vaccination? Maybe people in Canada received their vaccines between January and June of 2021, so maybe with boosters every 6 months, transmission would be under control?
In the UK everyone uses WhatsApp. Certainly everyone I meet my age or older. Maybe the kids are doing something differently, but I doubt it. iPhone usage just hasn't quite got high enough for iMessage to be seamless.

Maybe it's similar in Germany?

The question was whether the comparison was against OpenBLAS built with recursive LAPACK routines (not the default, I've now checked). I don't know whether that would use the same algorithm.

I don't see great attraction in "flipping" to MKL. (In general I switch BLASes by dynamic linking if necessary.) I'm puzzled by the value of "rather bad" for OpenBLAS, at least for BLAS [1], but it seemed OK against MKL for LAPACK-based R benchmarks I measured on sandybridge. That said, I don't understand why people avoid AMD's BLAS/LAPACK (BLIS/libflame with enhancements intended for merging) on AMD systems. In this context: BLIS studiously avoids Fortran for some reason, even for test the Fortran interface.

I have nothing against Julia, incidentally; I have the original Dylan book.

> That was before Ice Lake

My comment was about Alder Lake, where only P-cores even have AVX-512 units.

The i9 has 8 P-cores and 8 E-cores and users need to disable the 8 E-cores to use AVX-512. That's 50% of the cores gone for very niche use cases.

Considering that the PS3 emulator only got ~10% better performance on the highest end, it'd be better to simply get an 11th gen high-end part instead of a lower end 12th gen CPU for that use case anyway, so I really don't understand what the fuss is about.
Yeah this is what the great reset is about. It has advantages and disadvantages. Advantage is less incentives to produce short lived products. Disadvantage is that individuals have way less control over things.

It’ll scale like S3, et al.: replicated storage requires ongoing payments because sysadmins need to be paid, storage needs to be bought & replaced, network bandwidth is metered, etc.

It could be cheaper if someone can finally make a P2P network which becomes and stays popular[1] but it’ll always require more than a one-time payment. That could be donor funded (Internet Archive) but I’d be leery of assuming anything long-term unless you’re paying for it.

The PowerPoint deck found lately had the title “Options for Jan 6”. It proves that a ring of politicians were preparing to make some lemonade if enough chaos could prevent the expected transition of power. Their coordinated use of burner phones has proven they meant business.

Some of them joined media celebrities and relatives in a military command-style tent outfitted with transmitters. Venturing out of this hut, they lied to the clowns about accompanying them into the capital.

Some of the rioters were willing to die to breach parts of the building. We all know that, on a different day, some single disturbed individual trying to breach security is treated as a threat and maybe later described as disturbed. 2000 organized disturbed people.

Some of them are called Oath Keepers. You don’t get to call yourself an Oath Keeper without some manifesto.

And I’m sure in the aftermath many of the 10,000 or so would rather we not use the word manifesto. But, another word for manifesto is creed and the footage of bus rides on way shows more comfort with the word creed.

So, what was it? Well, when facing judgment the rioters say things like “I was listening to the President”. Maybe they also say “I’m sorry” but they definitely invoke one person they still think has power.

They don’t need a particularly long and flowery manifesto. People from these kinds of movements do best with short, pithy ones. Trump’s “American Carnage” speech was enough.

Our API [1] has recently matured to now support the different content types so that could be utilised for such a migration job although the API is still growing to cover more actions/models.

Have recently been thinking about possibly offering some form of paid service support service to help the process and help fund the project.

Why do 70% of families lose their wealth in the 2nd generation? (2018)
There are plenty of countries where the vaccination rate is too low to effectively prevent the healthcare system from being overrun. In Austria, we were in another lockdown due to this just a month ago, with a vaccination rate of about 70% at the time (IIRC). This is in a country with a relatively high number of unoccupied ICU beds, and we still peaked at a level just short of where doctors would have to triage patients (and well where the quality of care could be kept at its usual level due to i.e. fewer nurses and doctors per patient.)

So no, the unvaccinated aren't solely at risk personally, they could also prevent vaccinated people from getting treated at the standard of care that they would normally expect. I'm not okay with that, so mandatory vaccination with fines for non-compliance seems like the lesser evil to me.
No. It's about empowering the students with access to the mute button. It's a beautiful thing!

> Omicron is likely a much more effective inoculation against covid than the vaccines

That is my supposition too, based more on hope than facts.

> Omicron itself might be the biggest help we have.

I have come to that conclusion as well.

> Vaccines aren't helping. Masks and social distancing aren't helping.

This I don't agree with. Vaccines reduce the severity of an infection, and so the risk of hospitalisation, whether you are vulnerable or not. I'm confident that wearing a mask reduces the risk of transmitting the virus. And keeping your distance really can't hurt - the closer you get to someone who's transmitting, the more likely you are to catch it. That seems obvious. Maskless wonders going into supermarkets with clear signage on the door saying "MASKS MUST BE WORN" piss me off.
It's an interesting comparison.

I mean the easy reply is no: Fusion is not a solution in search of a problem. It has a precise defined desired output, and the engineering is being worked on to achieve that output.

(E.g.) NFT don't. Smart contracts don't. Even cryptocurrencies don't. If you precisely define what you want from a cryptocurrency, then you'll either end up with something that's better solved centralized (to a larger or lesser degree, but at least control), or you'll end up with something that nobody actually wants.

And if you launch today with something nobody actually wants, then you get rich. So who cares if eventually it solves a problem? And there's no incentive to make that happen.

The main difference is that blockchains are being launched before any thought has been put into what problems they solve. Because the money is made on the speculation. Solving the problem is incidental.

Sure, you could be super cynical and say that fusion, or indeed every single company in the world, is only there to make money, primarily. But they do that by solving (or trying to solve) actual problems.

Again on cryptocurrencies: Why do you think I'll have a hard time walking into a bank with duffle bags full of cash? Really think about that question. Really think about the hundreds of years of thought that has gone into it.

Do you think the main problem these generations of people were trying to solve was "intransigent bankers"? Do you think the bank doesn't "like" you as a customer if you walk in with duffle bags full of cash without explanation, and that's why it has rules and takes time, and you have to explain yourself?

Now cryptocurrencies just treat that as "that's stupid, let's remove all that".

Let's say a thief stole your TV. They catch the thief, and a court orders them to repay you. They have the money. They say no. Obviously you want a court order to be able to take their money.

A friend of mine was sexually attacked by a guy. The guy was convicted and ordered to pay a fine. He refused. The court ordered his safe deposit box opened, and they took the money.

And that's a good thing.

What "Web3 post"? If you want people to help you track it down you'll need to provide more information.

IPFS is famously slow/unreliable, not widely used, and you still need to pay for hosting of anything you don’t want to lose because storage, bandwidth, and operator time aren’t free and someone needs to get paid to deal with abuse.
> so you'd need to make sure any host you use to store the original absolutely never changes the file

Which is trivial, just download the file. The place where you bought the NFT would ideally have some facility where they guarantee you can download the correct file, otherwise why buy from them?

> But wait, that hash isn't guaranteed to be unique so really anyone could make another NFT pointing to the same URL and file hash, now they also own it? And anyone could just download the file, so they own it to?

Preimage attacks are quite hard to accomplish from what I understand against modern, secure hashes. If the hash used is later broken and a preimage attack is possible then yeah you're screwed. That's a risk you take.

As for exclusive ownership, I forgot in my initial reply to add another aspect I thought about which was the license. That is, some well-defined licenses should be specified, similar to the Creative Commons stuff, and the NFS should specify one of them. Then you know if you get copyright or not etc.

Enforcement of the license would of course be similar to other digital assets, ie hard to do unless you're big, that's just the nature of digital things.

Now, just to be clear, please don't take this to mean I'm advocating NFTs. I just think the way they're currently used seems to make them completely worthless, while in theory it might be possible to make them not quite worthless.
Better not watch YouTube in the process though.
