In my experience sadly few people really check its presence. Sure, there might be an aggressive spam filter in place that collects these mails. But this protection will almost always be removed once a customer or supplier couldn't contact you.

DKIM isn't hard to manage, SPF can be a pita. Although IP blocks are a very sensible network management tool (cloud provider and customers hate it), it is more difficult to administrate than setting up some domain keys. It will have to be managed whenever anything that is sending mail changes its public IP address, which very often happens if you host it in the "cloud".

This question is so strange to me! What dialect of English do you speak? Soda generally means like Coca Cola or some other sweetened, carbonated beverage. It doesn't mean soda water (though I can understand the confusion), which we can seltzer or sparkling water.

It absolutely does not include lemonade! I never in a million years would think of lemonade as remotely related to "soda". Our lemonades are not carbonated, and are just lemon juice, water, and sometimes sugar.

The question is so surprising to me. Where are you from? To you, what does "soda" mean? What does "lemonade" mean?
Great article!

Something the article doesn't mention is how much the exploitative ecosystem is visible in the final products.

A lot of games of the platform combine the monetization schemes of a Korean MMO with the production value of your average MarioMaker level. It's popular with kids because they don't have the money to buy actual games (and, cynically, they don't know any better), but what money they do have is aggressively sought after by the other kids who make games.
One of the biggest reasons to keep an older laptop running is that they're likely to still support the S3 sleep state. I had a 2016 XPS15 which had good sleep characteristics, upgraded to a top-of-the-line 2020 XPS15 and it just sucks (battery) because it will only use S1 sleep.
He said the lower bound was 0.5%.

So as a healthy 30 year you’re saying my risk of death is 0.5%?

And note the CDC said they’ll be providing data on who “died with covid” versus who “died from covid”.
For VITT the evidence is pretty conclusive as far as I know, but this is a side effect particular to the AZ and J&J vaccines. I don't think any of the other ones except Guillain-Barré on the list have occured often enough to be able to really investigate causality, and they're not on the list of known side-effects on the label.

This is a review, it's not even trying to quantify anything or judge risks. This is an overview of possible mechanisms for thes autoimmune diseases in this situation.
The points on immutability are incorrect. When Ethereum was rolled back to reverse the 2016 DAO hack the data was not lost, it continues on the Eth Classic chain - it is still immutable.

That chain is no where near as valuable today - that's true of most forks, one wins and the other loses. For most Ethereum users, and for the Polkadot users for which a similar fork happened recently, the early reversion to remedy loss caused by an exploit is considered a feature, not a bug and it was the community that decided which fork would win.

There has been much more money lost to similar exploits in various contracts since the infamous DAO hack, and the chain was not rolled back - if it ever was it would likely be a losing fork unless the community of users agreed on its value.

For Ethereum specifically this is more problematic as its full nodes are expensive to run and don't have much say compared to miners or centralized node providers like Infura, but this type of fork in principle isn't an example of immutability, and chains which do subsidize node costs to avoid the centralization seen in Eth's user facing nodes remain in control of the users.

In total, picking out the worst parts of the Ethereum network and generalizing it to 'blockchain' is lazy, and doesn't even fulfill the modest goal of the essay to "[discuss] how these technologies work in practice today," as it ignores the nascent systems whose developers were the first on scene to many of these problems and decided that they were solvable rather than bloggers with slightly deeper than surface level understanding seeing the same problems years later and deciding they were unsolvable.

The way the public conversation has unfolded in this crisis has been extremely disappointing to say the least and I understand your position. All the misinformation, conspiracy theories and politicising has made any real conversation impossible. Anything can and will be used to undermine confidence in vaccines. Unfortunately that means genuine issues get bundled in with the untrue in most peoples minds in my experience at least. I really don't envy anyone in the medical field at the moment when facts are twisted/discarded and people are dying as a result.

> That is one result, the bigger picture is that the strategies centralized owners of those items use to make profits at the expense of each user would go away.

It's the opposite. No real game developer would ever make assets tied to NFTs that have already been sold because they can't make any profit from that. The only thing the NFT provides is transferability, which most game developers also wouldn't want to support. The company makes more money if all consumers have to buy the same items separately. They build in scarcity by removing transferability.

Some companies might use NFTs to sell things no one would buy otherwise (like Disney selling pictures of R2D2), but that's pretty much the only use case for them.
> In June 2016, attackers exploited a vulnerability to steal 3.6 million ETH (then about $50 million) of the project’s 11.5 million ETH (about $160 million).

People love to tout this example, I did too, until that realized that one a one off event. There are regularly significantly more larger thefts of crypto currencies these days[1] and nobody is even willing to discuss a hard fork. I now chalk this up as growing mistakes which every project makes in early stages. I'm still not into this whole idea of crypto currencies, but don't think we can use this point fairly any more.

I looked at the statistics for the US and Europe

Europe: https://www.euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps/

Excess mortality seems to be way higher in the US than it is in the Europe, even though reported Covid deaths are in the same ballpark. In Europe, Covid deaths and excess mortality seem to match, more or less. In the US, excess mortality is several times higher.

I am unfortunately off by a long way on myocarditis, the reported rates are 5-6x. I was confused, my apologies. [1, 2].

The diabetes link is 3. After posting it in another post I was directed to some useful criticism.

My numbers are IFR rates in a pre-vaccinated world not controlling for age. I think you’ll have to refine your counter claim on mortality, certainly it is lower in children and young adults, but CFR from early in the pandemic (and I accept poor correlation between incidence and reported cases) was scarily high for young adults before we knew how to treat it.

My sister in law got blood poisoning from walking barefoot, if not for modern antibiotics would be dead or alive minus a leg.

It’s just natural to die from stepping on something nasty. Too bad for her but it makes the population stronger right?
Someone else, but my guess would be no. It's not too difficult to get compensated if your injury is on the list of known injuries. This being a new vaccine, there is not a lot of history to have produced a robust list.

If it's not on the list, you have to prove that it was more likely than not caused by the vaccine. You have to provide the theory for the underlying mechanism that caused it. So if it's really rare, you're screwed because there likely hasn't been much if any research on it. Then it will take a minimum of 3 years to into a courtroom because the government has left the vaccine courts severely understaffed.

Dealing with something similar in my family. I believe it's an autoimmune autonomic dysfunction issue brought on by multiple simultaneously administered vaccines. This presented a few days after vaccination and the doctors didn't even report it to VAERS! They had no explanation of the cause yet didn't care to report it as a possible event simply because it's not required by law or "I'm not the primary care physician".
Great work. Now you just need to get your hands on a Raspberry Pi...
I'm using X220 from 2011, it has i7, 8GB RAM and SSD, running Debian Linux.

I don't even feel the need to upgrade. It's in ideal condition, I love the keyboard and form factor, and for my daily tasks mostly involving terminal, text editor and web browser if feels snappier than many modern machines I have worked with.

I bought a new Dell laptop for my wife a year ago, and while the CPU and GPU are obviously way more capable for tasks like running games or encoding video, overall it just feels slower. It takes longer to boot, launch programs, even just switching between windows has some small delay. It probably would be quicker if I installed the same OS, but still - I feel better user experience from a decade old ThinkPad than new $1000+ machine out of box.
Chat apps are incredibly commoditised. It also seems natural that improvements to huge tech platforms today takes more time than anything previously.

But for smaller applications that innovatively solve a new problem, feature parity shouldn't be as important. I actually think now is the best time ever to build something, with all the tooling available. You can use Electron, Firebase, Auth0, GetStream etc to solve many of your points.
I check you, Rust static-size arrays that implement common traits... as long as they're no more than 32 elements long.

I have the same issue as author, and what you said was also my initial guess, but after a careful inspection i can assure you that there is nothing in the port (scrapped with end of zip tie to not damage anything inside) and cable is in fact applied fully in the port. I also tried different cables that fit correctly before and still fit in other devices, so in my feel there is very little chance that this is anything other that port fault. It's pixel 2xl if that's important for anyone.
Makes sense, thank you. I do figure elective brain surgery will be a thing at some point but we seem a ways off from that today.
The UK did lockdown somewhat harder than the US (but not some US states), but that mostly only affected hospitality and entertainment, and home-based activities made up for that to an extent. The debt is inconsequential (for now), and inflation is still nothing compared to the '70s.

US GDP is around 2.5% below pre-covid trend; the UK is far behind that. UK exporters (and importers) have taken a huge hit from the new trade barriers.

> There needs to be an accepting forum for people to report negative outcomes. Such statements provide necessary information on the risks associated with the vaccine, and how to mitigate these risks.

I definitely agree with this, and the risks should be known. Especially in the context of a spreading virus.
>Who cares how much it costs if your health insurance cover it?

At least under the current model, many people don't hit their deductible or max out of pocket. I know some older retired couples who are buying insurance on the market with 10k+ deductibles because they're generally in really good health, and the cost of insurance isn't absolutely insane with that level of deductible.

They would absolutely drive an hour rather than 5 minutes for non-emergency situations!
For >70% seroprevalence, with IFR 0.5 (best estimates pre-vaccination), and a population of 1.4 billion would still give around 5 million deaths. I would expect India’s IFR baseline to be lower than average western (younger population, low obesity), but surges would lead to healthcare collapse raising it.

> If vaccination does not meaningfully prevent transmission, as increasingly seems to be case with Omicron, faking vaccination harms only the fake recipient.

keyword being if and meaningfully.

Anyway that fake recipient may still need top notch expensive care to stay alive if he doesn't get mild covid. Are you suggesting that he should pay in full for those care since you state it only harms the fake recipient ?

Also, it increasingly seems that a third dose significantly increases protection against omicron.

I would guess that you are also including "anvullende verzekeringen", additional cover for e.g. dental/glasses/physiotherapy etc in your premium, because if you check a price-comparison site [1], then the majority of insurance policies are in the €110 - €120 range.

The extra insurance (dental/glasses etc) is also a bit of a scam, because the amount covered is often less than or just equal to the premiums that you pay in a given year, and you'd need to also be buying a new pair of glasses every year, always visiting the dentist, and so on. It's probably more economical to simply pay these costs out of pocket.

> You're combining the cost of care for the people who get care with an average outcome that includes people who don't get care.

Well that's the point, I think everybody should be taken into account in order to paint a comprehensive picture of the quality of the system at country level. The resulting stats reflect the health of a society as a whole not just of the part that can afford it. Not having universal healthcare is still part of the system, even if we don't like it.

I get it that health outcomes of those left out are probably very different. But leaving those numbers out of the comparison doesn't really work with these type of statistics.

At that point how could you compare it to the other countries that take everyone into consideration? The stats are GDP/capita percentages, should I remove the ones who can't afford healthcare from the GDP stats as well to not skew the ratio? I don't really like where I might end up taking this route.

I don't have any experience with US healthcare and I'm sure the quality of the services is really high, but the fact that you need to afford basic healthcare and it's not guaranteed by the government for everyone makes me see it as closer to just another "consumer product" compared to other systems.

Being a frequent on /r/thinkpads I was delighted to see a fellow ThinkPad enthusiast!

Can't remember how many TP's I've had over the years but I'll attest to the older models being solid laptops. The newer ones, however, are disappointing.

My last good ThinkPad was a T470s with an i5, 8GB, 256GB (UNIX/Windows). After several years of (ab)use, I wanted to splurge on a X1 Gen3 and the specs were more than enough for my needs with an i7 (hexa-core), 16GB, 512 GB, 1050TI, 1080p 400nits display. However, when I got it and started to use it hardware issues stared to pile up. I went back to my trusty T470s and sold the X1.

Now I have an MBP M1 Pro and it's great.
