I'm in Canada and we do have an official way primary care doctors and public health officials and report and have adverse conditions investigated. The problem is that when a patient presents with symptoms that started shortly after the vaccine administration they are often dismissed by their primary physician. Often the doctors even do scans or blood work and they find "nothing" and deem the person being okay. Rather then doing further investigation the patient is often treated like they are making up symptoms or exaggerating. Basically they treat them like an anti-vaxxer instead of properly investigating their condition. They just tell them not to worry "it'll go away".

We have people who come in to get additional doses and they'll mention having some pretty serious symptoms after their last vaccine and we will be so surprised with how often we are told they went to both the hospital and their family doctor and got zero resolution and the doctor did not report it to public health.

In many cases we just seem them medically inelligble in these cases and tell them they need to go to their doctor and followup more to ensure they will be safe to get another dose.

And this is where I think a lot of the problems with vaccine mandates and pressure from employers can lie. You end up with people who feel like they have no choice to get the vaccine, they have a bad reaction to it, and then doctors treat them like they are lying or that it's no big deal. Then they go for their next dose feeling even more untrusting of science and get another vaccine.

We are ruining a lot of people's trust in science and medicine by how hard these things are pushed. Because of how much push back there is against anything negative with vaccines, it means doctors also often end up with this same bias. They are afraid to attribute any problem a patient has to the vaccine.

I have no problem with vaccines and have 3 doses currently. But I can empathize with these people who feel hesitant and I myself definitely have lost some faith over the last year of doing this work.

It really seems like a lot of scientific and medical standards have been tossed out the window because of politics.
It seems that they pass everything through an autoencoder first, and a different network tries to predict from a partially masked input the "correct" autoencoder latent space representation of the unmasked input. If it works, the decoder of the autoencoder can generate(guess) the unmasked data from the latent space.

It might also be worth comparing to the stdlib's `container/ring` implementation of a non-generic ring buffer, to see how your code might differ between `RingBuffer[string]` and how the `interface{}` version of container/ring works!

The casting back and forth from T and `interface{}` is expensive, boilerplatey/extracode, and panic-prone.

Any explanation how it affects the asteroid detection? It is not a manual sky search it was decades ago, but a completely automated process with a computer controlled telescope, orbit calculation software, check against a database of known objects and a submission of the new findings.
Some of these seat boundaries just seem ludicrous. So, a serious question asked with best intentions and in good faith: is there any kind of rational justification for this kind of thing? Am I missing something about geography or demographics that would make me say “Aha! I hadn't realised that.

At least for me I enjoy my job but it’s usually being on conference calls talking about tech with business people. I like to take a 5mg edible every hour or two while working. Everyone always comments how chipper and patient I am with people. So maybe I’m not at my cognitive best but at least on calls it seems to improve my ability to convey my message.
I used one of the variants of the Nokia 100s model for 3 years. (2017 - 2020). After using these dumb phones my habit changed and I don't exclusively rely on my phone anymore. Even though I have a smartphone now, it is practically useless when I am _inside_ my room. I use my phone to just communicate and occasionally read PDFs. It doesn't have any social media apps, so the worst I do is browse the web once in a while.

But one huge advantage smartphone has is the camera and the maps. These are really the killer feature for a smartphone. Everything else is a bonus!

The bonus includes mobile banking, receiving important emails, and so on!

Life is simple when you throw away the cancer apps from smartphones. Then proceed to use it as it should be used i.e. just a phone!

this is exactly the kind of sweet spot of weed consumption that i’ve been trying to hit lately.

a couple of years ago, in my first year of university, i had developed an unfortunate weed addiction (it really is quite convenient for those who want to escape painful lives into fantasy), but after a couple years of cold turkey, i found myself missing the refreshing change of perspective that weed can genuinely provide when used responsibly.

these days, i try not to smoke more than once a week, and when i do so i try to make sure it doesn’t bleed into the rest of my life in all the same ways you do. clean room, coffee, music, notepad.

i am wary of relying on psychoactive substances to be creative, but whenever i’ve hit a dead end with a project, weed has a way of inspiring me to find new ways to solve a problem — be that aesthetic or technical design.

music is godly when high, and i have had many genuinely transformative moments listening to new albums under the substance.

for those wanting to “microdose” weed (as opposed to smoking blunt after blunt to get blitzed), i can highly recommend the DynaVap, an analogue weed vaporiser. the extraction of THC is significantly more efficient than combustion, and because the chamber is relatively small, it promotes consuming the substance responsibly.

(semi-tangent, but microdosing LSD has also been life changing, and i think delivers similar benefits to “microdosing” weed but with less brain fog, more clarity and more reliability)

The ironic thing would be if we detected a large asteroid and had no way of deflecting it in time because we had shutdown SpaceX in an attempt to better find smaller asteroids.
True, but I'd posit that the irritation and anger are effectively withdrawal symptoms; eating to avoid those symptoms is similar to keep lighting cigarettes because your hands tremble when you go without.

(Of course, it's not that black&white, and not eating at all will quickly deteriorate your health -- I'm just saying that hangriness is not the same as hunger, and learning to differentiate between the two is important)
It really drives me crazy how "study finds" just means that somebody built a hypothetical model to confirm their opinion.
> I don’t think SpaceX needs any ground stations

It is not magic. You signal from the user terminal has to reach a ground station / gateway connected to the Internet. Either there are inter-satellite links and the signal can be routed to a gateway far away. Or there are not and the gateway need to be at most a few hundred kilometers away if you satellites are in orbit at 400km.

A problem with open and free projects (to oversimplify the ideological differences) is the source of time and purpose.

The production cost is subsidized as a Hobbie not as a profession, so it's hard to expect a 'consumer product'. When you put external money and corporate interest in your hobbies, something breaks.

Not saying open products don't have to exist, we all love them. They cover different creative needs, and usually are a gift for the community.

If you have to remove the streaks, you're losing data behind those streaks. It's possible that in that frame, you miss the data that would be needed.

The US has multiple such systems that serve different purposes. We have a passive monitoring system (VAERS) that you might be referring to in data quality issue. It’s for identifying side effects for further study, and it’s explicitly but for estimating risk. That doesn’t stop people from publishing studies based on data they try to filter and verify validate from VAERS.

We also have the vaccine safety datalink, which is intended for causal and quantitative studies of the things surfaced in VAERS, etc. it’s based on electronic health record integration across a network of hospitals covering I think about 3% of the US population. It is public as in publicly funded I guess, but not as in public access. You can read the first report here: https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2021.15072

I am reasonably sure the UK has a similar setup, with some passive monitoring system and a much better health record integration story through NHS.
Well there’s smart and there’s smart. It seems to drive obsessive and paranoid tendencies in people which can be a positive impact on work and a negative impact on social behaviour at the same time.

I have seen the same lack of association before as well. A friend’s relationship has broken down due to his paranoia but that according to him doesn’t come from the 25 years of smoking cannabis but her behaviour. She doesn’t smoke and is perfectly normal in any way and I feel really sorry for the poor woman.

OpenBSD does have pledge, on the other hand. And yeah, different systems have different features and tradeoffs; some people could legitimately say to take "Linux does everything that FreeBSD used to do for me" with a grain of salt, because that has not been true for them (say, if they like ZFS + boot environments, which is a relative pain on Arch).
Too me all those words are over exaggerated. Nothing close to that has been done to Bukowski. His work is being misconstrued, and that's bad enough. Turns out rights holders are usually scum.

Just a piece of unsolicited advice: do not reply personally. Take your time and let people just say their thing and leave it at that. It is not so important.
That's not what the published article says at all.
We've already detected all asteroids with that mass in our solar system [1]. There are smaller ones that won't end life on Earth that are still concerning, but the quandary is we have almost nothing to do even if we detected a threat from an asteroid.

I think there are several factors why server-side software has taken over:

1. It's easier to charge for, holding the software hostage in a way. Also gives a nice excuse "Look! Need to pay for server costs!".
2. Greater choice in programming language and libraries. If you want to do ML of any kind for example, that's most convenient using Python + libraries. Moving inference client side is still a hassle.
3. No out of sync client versions
4. Faster release cycle and iteration speed
5. If you have a need to store lots heavy user data like images, videos etc, you need to charge anyway, so might as well get the benefits of 2, 3 and 4.
6. If you need interaction between users, which many apps need today, you probably need centralized severs anyway.

So it's pretty clear to me why it's happening, but that doesn't make it right. Personally, I'm going for a client-side-as-much-as-possible approach for my own project. This should allow me to scale a mostly free product to as many users possible without incurring much marginal cost. I'm hoping that I can then sustain the project on smaller revenue streams, since I'm not really interested in more than replacing a regular salary.
Sadly that is what happens when you blindly follow someone without ever questioning their doctrine.
I still can't believe they removed the ability to dock to the side of the screen. Even the Mac taskbar they are trying to emulate can do this.

IMO on laptop widescreens, putting the taskbar at the bottom greatly reduces the most precious screen resource - vertical space.

> What has the world come to, where technology has been appropriated and we are left paying rents every month and companies are increasingly becoming user-hostile and predatory and monopolistic!

This is the expected outcome of Capitalism and was only a matter of time until it happened. If you let for-profit companies run wild, power will consolidate, allowing them to enact whatever policy has the best ROI at the cost of being user-friendly. Hoping for such an individualistic system that rewards greed to be nice is, to put it gently, naive.

The only way to ensure that users are the priority of a software is when users collectively have the power to make decisions. This can either happen when they own the whole process, or if it is run under a license that gives them the power to keep the admins in check. The Copyleft model is the only one that can give those guarantees, and it doesn't prevent admins from earning money

The whole point of SpaceX is to make the cost of payload to orbit 1000x cheaper. At that point you can build a much better monitoring system that isn't dealing with the atmosphere.
One big problem with one time payment model is that you at some point after shipping and fixing bugs need to start doing other things (next paid version or another product). In this period you will accumulate a lot of new features/functionality that isn't exposed to the users for a long time. This causes two problems:

1)Users who would love to have new stuff quickly have to wait, often for years until new version is ready

2)You unload everything in one go with the release and that means tons of bug reports/feature requests/urgent work at this time. This is stressful and counterproductive.

Subscription solves those problems and aligns incentives so developers ship new stuff as soon as it's ready which is better for everyone. I agree it's very nice to have a standalone one time payment option but that has to come without free upgrades (or only for limited period) or otherwise it doesn't make business sense.

There is not an easy way to implement buy your software and get limited subscription for upgrades model as you need to solve the problem of "what if they don't prolong the subscription for a few months but then want back on it". What Jet Brains has done wouldn't fly in consumer market. It's just not an easy problem to solve.

My own experience is that a few years ago people were thankful we don't offer subscription but these days more ask for it as they don't want to front the bigger cost and would be happy to get updates faster. As a consumer I want subscription for everything that may get new useful features.
From the article:

> The undersea FALCON cable carries internet into Yemen through the Hodeida port along the Red Sea for TeleYemen. [...] Land cables to Saudi Arabia have been cut since the start of Yemen's civil war, while connections to two other undersea cables have yet to be made amid the conflict, TeleYemen previously said.

Internet was designed to survive in case of a few random nukes here and there, but I guess that nuking every single connection will do the trick.

I think it's actually the version that you started your paid period with, so usually a slightly older version. I think this is fair though.

WASM gets you faster performance than JavaScript, sure, but it's not native, either. Sandboxing & byte code aren't free to have. See the extremely long history of existing byte code VMs here - WASM isn't really doing anything new.
In a way that proves the point as well though - not only are there inconsistent rules there are also seemingly under-determined rules where you can use one of many options (but only sometimes!)
