I think it is great that omicron can propagate like this. The severity seems to be quite low. That means that everybody will be immune and we can move on.
We should remove as well those mask and vaccine coercion, but I don't think that will happen.

I personally look at the raw data of death. I believe that most data you would get around COVID have bias, and only overall data speak the truth.

Look at what happened in Europe: https://www.euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps
(This does not include hospitalizations)
First of, you realize that the pandemic is not at all what we have been told. We can observe an increase in death in the winters, but somewhere like peaks with 10% more deaths than the years beforehand.

You realize that for the 0-44 age group, there has been NO PANDEMIC.
So from the beginning, we should just let this age group live normally. (no mask, no restrictions, no mandatory vaccine, no pass, no isolation)

Then comes the other age groups > 44, that did have excess death especially during winters. We should focus on the care to them and allow them to have a better access to their doctor, even when positive. Equip all of them with early treatment pack (antiviral and antibiotics for the first phase, anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory for the second). Provide them access to vaccines, only if they want to take them as it is an experimental treatment.

The main reason why the hospitals got over populated is because we told people to isolate and not see their doctors. They wait to be really sick and have no choice than going to the hospital.

Then come the health structure. We should just double the wages of all the nurses, auxiliary, GP, emergency doctors.
Allow quick formations for unemployed and military to become auxiliary.

And if you think we cannot pay for that, think about the cost of a single day of nation wide lockdown.
I can't seem to find any info on how the linux enviroment interfaces with the minecraft world. Is there a minecraft.ko or a minecraftd running inside the vm?
I do know ARC is also a garbage collector, but is there an agreed name for the other GC's? There is a significant difference and performance implications with ARC vs. the other ones, that's what I meant.
But something is happening, the SP500 is increasing (which in USD would be a meaningless statement), but it is also increasing in all (didnt checkk all) other currencies in the world, isnt it?
I have never been able to make good with thr lighting + camera + background trifecta for my vids. One is always off, and it drives me nuuuuuuts. Hoping the vid linked to in the article will help, even though it's about the 100th I've watched <sob> <sob>
The request for the other poster to "actually respond to what you have written" is somewhat ironic given that you didn't do the same for them. They specifically said they wanted data on the "long term side effects" which you then completely ignored in your reply, and instead talked about how it had been "administered to a couple of billion people".

This is something that I see authoritarian pro-mandate people do all the time and it genuinely confuses me. Why do you do this? Do you think that testing with a billion people for a year will give you the same data as testing a hundred million people for ten years? Or is it just a genuine mistake?
I know this blog post is niche but title could be edited to simplify what "deep blue YouTuber" means here. For HN readers I mean.

"...planted pro-China advocate for 'man on the street' opinions on Taiwan"

> For those who don't know, "deep blue" means very pro-KMT, generally favoring Chinese identity, closer ties with China and eventual unification with China.

Sounds optimal for PHP where 99% of scripts are short lived.
In theory most university courses, especially common ones on the undergrad level such as most mathematics, physics and engineering, could all be replaced by standardized tests. Long tests, sure, but tests you could simply sit for a small fee.

This is not likely to happen though.
Are these client-side only extensions that are manipulating the DOM, or are they somehow feeding parameters to google to exclude domains (by e.g., automatically suffixing a series of "-site:blah.com"s to the query)?
Because you never heard of it you assume I’m lying?

If that’s how you conduct yourself I’m not surprised you can’t find a good job.
Can't wait for:

- Pattern matching in switch statements (done horribly wrong)
- If, while, and switch expressions
- Inferred type system
- Consistent array method argument order
- Actually usable higher order functions and reflection

Big reminder: Php is a fractal of bad design, and I intensely hated using it at work for many years. The only good thing in Php is Symfony2 framework.

As a complete outsider, what I don't understand is why there's so much NIMBYism in CA and such strong (and laudable) support for easy immigration. If not for immigration the US population growth would have slowed to a crawl and there would be much less pressure.

I guess housing prices wouldn't rise as quickly, but I doubt that's a big part of the motivation.
This. My own "invasive is bad" epiphany was with honeysuckle in a SE Michigan park. They had grown so thick that nothing was able to grow in the soil under them - which had turned to dust, like the surface of the moon.
> talk about these things with your doctors

Maybe, but at the end of the day it is your decision. You absolutely can read a pile of papers on your specific issue and invest hours into it. It will without a shadow of a doubt be more attention than the GP has for you (at ~10 minutes per appointment), or even a specialist who might invest an hour into you if you're lucky. Unless you're dying, in which case it's still not certain.

For me, being prescribed increasingly higher doses of steroids in the beginning of the lockdown we had here because of my asthma was not nice. After about a year of this, I realised it got a lot worse after staying indoors for 1.5 years. It sounds obvious and in hindsight it was, but my doctor knew all of this and never ever addressed the fact that maybe I should spend more time outside (with absolutely 0 mention of testing for vitamin levels or prescribing something along those lines). Doctors come in widely varying qualities and some of them are really bad.
Theory you citing is not that credible. Smallpox virus was with humanity for at least 3500 years. In XX century it's lethal rate was about 30% for adults, more for children.
I have an Intel Realsense camera, which sometimes reports the error "Failed to recconect" (there being a typo in the drivers) [1] - that's a pretty unique error, so in combination with the product name that should be a very easy keyword search, right?

But no, when I search for realsense "failed to recconect" Google returns pages that contain neither realsense nor recconect [2]. They offer me a supreme court opinion, a review of a car dealership, and a facebook church service.

Correcting the spelling of a query is one thing - but also completely ignoring other keywords? I can see why there are so many people posting about the poor quality of Google's search results.

Reeves was paid 10 to 14 million for this movie. That is base salary before other stuff, before his costs. So in terms of the budget, he alone is probably about 10% of the total cost to make this movie.
It seems that PHP (or at least the community) is taking a lot of inspiration from hack for its newer additions, and giving very little in the way of credit or comparisons.

It is weird than an article like this shows nothing for ctrl+f "hack"
And has population density of 2,631/km2 compared to Bay Area's 431/km2.

No, because I never claimed that preventing suffering is the only goal. Just add one more goal which is potentially experiencing pleasure then you can justify most lives, well except that of those pigs

>So if you want to actually treat climate change as an important problem, why would you shutdown non-emitting source of power that you already have?

In Germany's case because they saw what happened in Japan and made an adjustment to their projected risk assessments and decided it wasnt worthwhile.

It may have been the wrong decision, especially given the difficulty in measuring the risks involved but it wasnt an irrational decision.

Nuclear power has a small chance of going wrong but when it does it goes very wrong.

And when it did, Japan had to fire up all of its coal and natural gas.
I've being used PHP since it was Personal Home Page (3.x or something). The reason I moved away from it, is it is language make up. Some point around 4 it try to become Java OO style (ok ES6 is trying to do that too). The main reason moving away from it is because would like to have language that has function as a first class citizen, and JS seems to fit the bill. Once I found the joy of developing with proper closure and using function as a first class citizen PHP just doesn't appeal to me. The best things about PHP is it's templating system. And with EJS or similar there is really no reason to use PHP anymore.

No, but we have plenty of other policies designed to prevent construction. Like having needlessly complicated and subjective lot coverage rules where simple objective ones would work fine. Or nerfing SB-9. Our town government also extorts conservation easements out of folks in exchange for permits.

I've been struggling for two years just to fix a leaky roof. When my town fails to get an approved Housing Element, I'll probably build condos out of spite. And move to a red state so I have some property rights and better ROI on taxes.
It would be better to measure response times in percentiles. Not saying you will get a different result in your particular case, but it's a more accurate representation of what is actually happening.
What part of „insensitive“ did you read as misrepresentation of danger?
There is still a huge difference between a one-time thing and an everyday action.
I disagree with this methodology. At the very least it should be called out as the reason for the 'fail'. Yes, it's less than ideal to not follow the standard. But I would far rather an N95/KN95 mask that didn't have it correctly printed but otherwise passes the criteria than none at all.

If it's a filtration test and it filters correctly give it a pass with an asterisk.

This is great, and thank you for going out of your way to do this.

There seems to be some minor issue (I think) with the table you present on the page.

I just watched the test done on the Gerson N95 Model 3230+ mask, and in that video you mention that you had just done a test on the Gerson N95 Model 3230.

However it does not seem to exist in the table. Perhaps there are more missing?
Huh. I deploy a lot of stuff to GAE and love it. But my approach is to just write regular Django apps, add a half dozen lines of GAE-specific stuff to the settings and that's it. No trouble at all running the same apps somewhere else with only trivial changes. That's worked really well for me for work where we're already on GCP and GAE lets us run our lower traffic services reliably for very little money.
But utterly fails to address the Euler puzzle as I Euler was not asking about quantum mixture of ranks and regiments.
Part of what makes it fun is that a random guess can be a lot stronger against a puzzle than the common word guess.
I'm glad the community around modern PHP is thriving, but filler articles like these are getting on my nerves. Reiterating a bunch of content that has already been covered extensively on the web in the past months (and in 10+ previous posts on your own blog), slapping a misleading title on it and filling it up with call-to-action's for your own personal video/newsletter/courses isn't good content. The author had some really good articles in the past, but this reads like fluff just to fill up his blog. Quality over quantity.
I actually have several such lists already, but if the actual list of candidate words in this game is a subset of the ones I have, I imagine solution can be arrived at quicker by excluding guesses that couldn't possibly lead to the solution.
XMPP is about choice.

I use OMEMO everywhere. However, I do know of people out there who simply do not see the point of OMEMO as, when they are the server admin, OMEMO adds no value over TLS. OMEMO also doesn't make sense in large public groups, cause you're not going to go and verify 100+ people's encryption keys one by one.

OMEMO and end-to-end encryption are also incompatible with keeping a reliable server-side archive of your messages - which will be accessible to all future XMPP clients that you add to your account - which apparently some people want. You can see this at the table at https://conversations.im/omemo/

Meanwhile, you occasionally find people on the Signal subreddit bemoaning that they lost their entire message history with a loved one because some backup file got corrupted and failed to restore or; they lost some device. Here's an example: https://www.reddit.com/r/signal/comments/rbtdtb/

As I said: XMPP is about choice.

Somewhat agree, however I think it's because building redstone actually requires some materials science type knowledge. i.e. how different materials and physical structures affect the redstone signal.

Redstone blocks vs redstone torches, and their relative strengths/purposes. Torches on sides of normal blocks with signals entering the side of the block. Using normal blocks to prevent redstone signals from connecting (particularly when going up or down stepped inclines). Space requirements to allow a signal to drive a block and not just terminate the signal next to a block.

These are all game analogues of laying out P and N state semiconductors, or conducting signals from one area of a chip to another and maintaining their signal quality, when designing ICs. Granted, these processes are hugely automated by tooling, but someone has to know, learn and understand how the materials science works in order to develop those tools.

This is why I'm surprised I've not yet seen a VHDL/Verilog compiler for minecraft redstone. Converting a gate array and netlist into a minecraft world feels like a relatively simple challenge for anyone with the knowledge, but I guess it's too niche of a project? Or I'm just not looking hard enough for it.

I guess you might be able to say that ICQ is still around? And one of the largest messaging platforms around, if not the largest?

Of course I'm talking about the QQ variant, which is probably so far from the original ICQ that I have no leg to stand on making the above claim. Still, a very interesting story to follow.

I disagree... All the infrastructure scales with the population supported. It doesn't matter if it's 2000 people living in a huge 500-flat skyscraper or 2000 people living in 10 streets 50 houses long.

They're all gonna need the same amount of parking, parks, shops, employment, education, entertainment, etc. They'll also pay the same taxes to fund all that stuff.

The construction effort or materials of a skyscraper probably isn't much different to 10 streets of 50 houses either.
Given the lack of rigor of many studies bantered about, the commercial incentives of the pharmaceutical industry, filtering and censorship of information from inconvenient sources, questionable methods of tallying Covid deaths, and politicization of Covid policy, why are you so surprised that people would over-value their anecdotal experiences?

US Space Force solicits debris removal proposals from industry
It's pretty obvious from recent well recorded history that leaders with the necessary skills, motivation and right time/place fitment to actually do world changing things are incredibly rare and when those kind of people do pop up we get world changing events that would have never otherwise happened or if they did would have happened with vastly different details and consequences.

The great man way of describing history leaves a lot to be desired but the "somebody else would have done it" crap is even worse. Remove key figures from history and then try to judge what would have happened had someone else filled their shoes and it becomes painfully obvious. Imagine 9/11 happened +/-20yr. How would the second half of the 1900s played out had Chaing Kai-shek gotten control of mainland china? Would we have gotten the napoleonic wars if Louis XVI kept the throne another 10yr? What would european history look like if church had waited another 200yr before cooking up the idea of the crusades? Imagine if the US hadn't elected an abolitionist sympathizer in 1860 but instead waited until 1872? How would recent European history look without Stalin? Etc. etc. Key details regarding when and the order in which events happen have a huge impact on history and the whims of individuals (like Alexander) massively influence these details.

I'm not here to defend the great man theory of history. I'm here to put the "it mostly would have happened about the same" theory of history in the dumpster where it belongs.
