I remember writing the following about the AstraZeneca vaccine in Nov 2020 when concerns were raised with it.

Two things can be both be true:

- the vaccine is safe and effective

- parts of approach in running studies weren't as good as they should have been

Seems to perhaps apply here too.

They shouldn't be most of what you eat, since they have a lot of digestible carbohydrates compared to the amount of fiber, fat, and vitamins, but they are certainly not bad for you.

Your calories (unless you're a genetic outlier) should be relatively evenly split between carbs and fat. If whole grains are where most of the carbs are coming from, that's fine. Science says so.

> Meanwhile Telegram hasn't seen such problems since they were starting out

There is no point of even looking into Telegram's code - it is not encrypted. Why would researchers waste their time?

Encrypted one-to-one chats is not really a feature. It is rarely used since parties need to explicitly request such session. And even than it's clunky as hell.
the impact of these sorts of redirections is limited. in Maryland, casino revenue ostensibly funds schools. but if casino revenue drops for some reason (eg, covid), the deficit is made up elsewhere. funding for important state organs is always somewhat fungible.

if for some reason the revenue can't be made up elsewhere and the schools come to depend on revenue from fines/seizures, that still leaves the police department with a lot of leverage.
Just that their support rubbed me the wrong way. I wanted to use their commercial offering but it had a bug which stopped my site returning any telemetry. They basically refused to do anything about it, and that was a big red flag. With Javascript analytics you need to know that it is returning for 100% of compatible clients with JS enabled, otherwise you are missing valuable metrics.

Google Analytics worked fine on my site. Plausible's script causes a script error which killed it dead. It's only a bug in their commercial system. I spent hours debugging it myself and found the bug in their system. Seeing as it's a bug only in their commercial offering (not their open source one) I said "throw me some free credit for my time" and they said "no thanks, I'm sure we'll figure it out ourselves one day, don't worry about it". After that I didn't want to touch their product.

I also pinged Marko (co-founder) on Twitter and no response there either. So, honestly can't recommend their paid service at all.
Yes, but the underlying point you're willfully missing is:

You can't engineer around AWS AZ common-mode failures using AWS.

The moment that you have failures that are not independent and common mode, you can't just multiply together failure probabilities to know your outage times.
At this point the original phase 3 trials are pretty much irrelevant, we have so much more data now from the actual use of the vaccines. They really play no role at all now. In terms of effectivness we're three major SARS-CoV2 variants further, and for looking at rare side effects we have billions of doses now compared to tens of thousands in those trials.

I'm all for putting pressure on everyone in Science to publish more raw data. This kind of data is likely more complicated because it's really hard if not impossible to anonymize the actual patient-level data. It still should be as accessible as possible to other scientists.
In the NFT/crypto world, you will see more liquidity mining in the form of wash trades in the hope of amassing a bigger share of a future platform airdrop (e.g. the much awaited but so far not happening OpenSea airdrop)

Oh, it's just for email. That makes sense. Seems pretty weak since it relies on the user noticing the absence of a security feature.

I'd probably prefer the emails have no links and train people to never click from an email. Make them log in the same way they usually do to take any actions.
During a recent AWS outage, the STS service running in us-east-1 was unavailable. Unfortunately, all of the other _regions_ - not AZs, but _regions_, rely on the STS service in us-east-1, which meant that customers which had built around Amazon’s published reliability model had services in every region impacted by an outage in one specific availability zone.

This is what kreeben was referring to - not some abstract misconception about the difference between AZs and Regions, but an actual real world incident in which a failure in one AZ had an impact in other Regions.
Makes sense. I wouldn't assume it'll work until someone reports back after trying it -- these legacy free G Suite accounts are often treated weirdly by google, and not available for various kinds of integrations.
pretty much the same :)
We're not talking about breaking down social cohesion in the sense of total chaos in the streets. We're talking about neighbors knowing each other and taking care of each other. Loneliness and depression are at all time highs despite the largest social safety nets in history.

Cherry picking a few of the wealthiest countries in the world that are racially and culturally homogeneous is not very helpful. One of those scandi countries just announced suicide pods where you can go kill yourself because so many people want to.

It's fine to say the social programs are worth the cost, but don't deny the cost.
For code, git has won out among the other options. As per ML data+model versioning that area is still evolving and what the right choices are there depends on ML frameworks as well as your approaches to deploying new models.

Generally I'd view data and trained model versioning to be separate, but linked to the training code versioning. In an ideal world you end up with a system where data version+training code version is in the metadata of a given model version, but there's plenty of other aspects of the data science themed addons to consider.
Hah. An acquaintance did a computer game on a DG mini, which I saw and played in early 1975. I think that he must have written the game in Nova/Eclipse assembler. I assume that he figured out wiring up the joysticks himself.
Imo with every single thing that’s not your businesses core advantage or differentiation, you should go with what you’re familiar with. If I was in your shoes i wouldn’t let myself turn it in to a decision to decide. Whatever I was already using would win by default.

To do otherwise is bike shedding. Every comment you read in this thread, every faq you open, free account you create to poke around. It’s time and energy that could have been spent working on the product. Far more importantly though, is the false sense of achievement you’d feel having spent time choosing bitbucket or whatever wins out, while having not progressed.
I'm just imagining government agencies running pledge drives for three months out of the year.

In this system how would we manage a situation where some organizations are over funded to a drastic degree (though who decides that?) and other vital services (and who decides what is vital?) are underfunded? I'm not convinced that the American people could come together and vote with our wallets in a way that results in a balanced budget.

Edit: I shouldn't have specified American, I'm sure plenty of countries would struggle with this :)
Of course this also misses the entire point of #defundthepolice.

Back in the 80s social services were heavily cut under the Reagan administration, on the assumption that the police could serve that purpose instead. But the police are trained to deal with potentially violent criminals and applying those techniques to the homeless or mentally ill only makes the problem worse and leads to tragedy.

So the idea is you claw back the extra money the police departments need to handle cases like that (poorly) and greatly increase the funding for social workers and state mental health institutions.

In reality the second part is a huge amount of work to set up and few if any governments have really tried to take it seriously. Most have not even freed up the money from police departments, and a few that have ended up giving it right back when they realized how much extra work it was going to make for them.

The underlying theory is that if you fix the social safety nets then you won't need much of a police force, and in fact the social support programs are much cheaper than police and jails in the long run. But they are also "socialism" so we can't have that in this country.
It’s a Canadian website, and it’s pretty clearly written with a Canadian audience in mind. Presumably the intended audience can drum up some mental images of what buildings look like in their own country.
Nobody in the art space has a worse experience when using NFTs (except maybe in transaction fees on some networks). It is either the exact same experience or a better one.

So, "yesn't"? It would improve the same aspects of the fine art world if thats what some market participants like art pieces for. You can move more money faster with crypto so if you want to rationalize those movements with NFT purchases - or just attract the people who want to do that but found crypto unrelateable before NFTs - then thats available too.

A lot of these questions evaporate when you use them yourself. Its fun to imagine everything is a wash trade, but when a bot or person bids on your own NFTs and you use that money to pay rent or buy a car, you personally will then understand that the assumption is simply irrelevant. Its like "yeah, sure the NFT space is ripe for money laundering and wash trading, there are also other people buying and selling, the distinction doesn't matter"

Even if the bots are money laundering, hoping to resell art they buy to someone else, are they successfully money laundering? We don't know and its not our problem, so who cares? People worried that the bids will dry up on artwork they own if they attempted to enter the space for investment? Who cares! Thats a risk for everyone in any asset class. Take the risk or don't.
> Serious question: if the raw data could potentially undermine public trust in the US government, can it be classified as a matter of national security?

No, probably not. The government doesn't really have the authority to classify information generated by private entities like Pfizer barring specific legislation.

The closest you'd likely come is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invention_Secrecy_Act, but that allows (temporary) suppression of patents, not clinical trial data.

The article is about much more than that movie.
Note that where it says:

> A mini PCI Express 4G LTE modem. I used a Quectel EC25-A, but there are some from Sierra Wireless I've heard recommended too.

This is actually just a mini-pci-e adapter board that exposes the USB pins to the USB type A connector seen in the photo. It's not an actual pci-e bus device LTE modem. As shown in the example, it appears to the kernel as a USB device.
You're not going to legislate or regulate a platform into existence. Apple and Google didn't appear on the scene yesterday. They both started at zero users amid a market full of competitors. They are the competitive upstarts that actually competed and and were successful.

Before the iPhone and Android there were a number of mobile platforms that all sucked in their own special ways. The mobile market was the incumbents' market to lose and they then lost of their own accord.
Whenever I see that, I question whether I should even apply. It signals that the company will play games and implement these gimmicky things.
> Also, how can Pfizer claim that their "study" ends in 2023?

Because it does. https://beta.clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04848584

> Several hundred million people have already received their vaccine, unaware that it's part of a study

Because it's not. Use under the EUA and subsequent approval is separate from and in parallel with continuing studies.

It's rare to see shade thrown so overtly in the Times, because it's so rare it can be done this deniably, and always makes me chuckle when it does.
I’m surprised no one has made a series of adapters for this so you can use any battery on any tool.

> Everyone needs these things to work, but no one is working on them

A few people do seem to be working on these critical things, just not together towards any common goal. The way GP puts it, the Pine64 communities are ideologically opposed to reducing development friction because that would mean people could start thinking about doing useful things to do with these devices. Who would want that? The suggestion that the status quo is working out positively is completely baffling to me.
Totally agree. JS has closures why do we need the private keyword?
I think it's resolved as I don't have any issue with storing excerpts of scripts and code.
I'm so sick of comments like this. I'll read the goddamn information presented to me and use my own critical thinking skills to determine what I see as useful. Whatever past the person has, if there is a potential issue with something, it's someone like this who has been paying attention with a focus on the matter who will alert us first.
Now you may have a bad example, here is a except of letter from Albert Einstein to his wife where he outlined the conditions for their relationship:

"B. You will renounce all personal relations with me insofar as they are not completely necessary for social reasons. Specifically, You will forego:

1. my sitting at home with you;

2. my going out or travelling with you.

C. You will obey the following points in your relations with me:

1. you will not expect any intimacy from me, nor will you reproach me in any way;

2. you will stop talking to me if I request it;

3. you will leave my bedroom or study immediately without protest if I request it."

Further:

"Einstein prized his solitude greatly. Another remark shows his difficulty with personal relationships. While he eventually fell in love with his cousin Elsa and finally divorced Mavic to marry her in 1919, that marriage too was troubled. Elsa died in 1936 soon after the couple moved to the U.S. Not long after her death, Einstein would write, “I have gotten used extremely well to life here. I live like a bear in my den…. This bearishness has been further enhanced by the death of my woman comrade, who was better with other people than I am.”[0]

I don't argue that their aren't exceptions, but I believe my point is true in the general sense.

I actually had a similar type of dreams as mark_l_watson when I took quantum chemistry (that's not a drug... for most people). Since I switched to performing more mundane tasks for a living, my dreams shifted to me hopelessly trying to navigate the very real, although warped and endlessly labyrinthine, dim interior landscapes of my university's library which I last visited more than 10 years ago. It was built around 1970 and it is a kind of trip during waking hours already.
Glock ships their Glock 19 from Austria to Smyrna, Georgia, with adjustable target sights to have enough points under US import law and then an armorer changes those sights to their fixed self defense sights to be sold in the US market. Presumably the sights get shipped back to Austria for the next batch.

Alcohol can be part of having a fun time, and having a fun time occasionally is good for your mental health (as opposed to the physical health of your brain, which appears to be what you're talking about).
The article does not reference cultures where alcohol has been consumed for several millennia without any significant harmful effects. Consider, Italy and middle east where the cultures have consumed wine for thousands of years and is even partaken during religious ceremonies. I am confused.
For my purposes, because their short lifespan and particular needs make them pretty bad pets IMO. Never mind the moral arguments for keeping such intelligent animals in captivity.
These are great, thank you.
How many potential future Elons would give up on their efforts to "benefit society" if, instead of being able to amass a net worth of $270 billion, they could only reach, say, $135 billion because of a wealth tax? It seems like you're saying there would be 50% as many future Elons if an Elon could only earn half as much, but maybe you have some other calculation in mind.

Anyway, plenty of other people manage to be motivated enough to benefit society without ever earning a single billion (and some people manage to earn or inherit billions without having a net positive contribution to society whatsoever).
Not op, but I can imagine it would be easy to be in the 'bottom' tier of an industry by revenue/sales/etc - if I want to be credited, just make a tiny barely functioning company and collect the credits

1) Ah, so your step 1 was "fire the employee". (As predicted.) And you still don't get why no rational employee would start down that path?

2) Look at what script? Step zero, you will recall -- before writing the script -- was to open the discussion with the employer.
The competition turns inward when you have a monopoly. Instead of different companies vying for market dominance you have middle managers trying to post the biggest numbers to get that coveted promotion.

Actually, that happens in a Free Market too, but companies have more incentive to tamp down on inefficient behavior if it makes them less competitive. In a monopoly the inefficiency is much harder to prevent.
> Classical activists like Rosa Parks, MLK, and Frederick Douglass were careful, articulate, and thoughtful -- and they had far more of a positive influence because of it.

If we’re being honest about history it’s because these are the people that some choose to celebrate and elevate. They are certainly worthy of praise and remembrance, but especially with regards to the civil rights movement it was not all of even mostly pretty. Even then some people choose to ignore words from the “articulate” people mentioned that make them feel uncomfortable.

I think it’s pretty rich to deny good education and then complain when the neglected don’t speak in the preferred manner. There are plenty of educated and articulate people who have been making the same point for years and nobody listened.
But I just pointed out there's no evidence that policies are in effect. Your provided study is alarming but not at all supporting the specific language of your claim. Potentially the intention, but not the language.
BoltDB author here. Yes, it is a bad design. The project was never intended to go to production but rather it was a port of LMDB so I could understand the internals. I simplified the freelist handling since it was a toy project. At Shopify, we had some serious issues at the time (~2014) with either LMDB or the Go driver that we couldn't resolve after several months so we swapped out for Bolt. And alas, my poor design stuck around.

LMDB uses a regular bucket for the freelist whereas Bolt simply saved the list as an array. It simplified the logic quite a bit and generally didn't cause a problem for most use cases. It only became an issue when someone wrote a ton of data and then deleted it and never used it again. Roblox reported having 4GB of free pages which translated into a giant array of 4-byte page numbers.

I wonder how much of that is due to subsidies for culture (are they considered as such?). Don't really need to attract readers if the government check keeps coming in every month.

Architecturally speaking, I had to go to Ottawa once (for an acquisition that ended up not working out) and the contrast with DC was spectacular. It looked like there was no clear plan for the city, despite it being an artificial one (they decided to build a capital there in the 19th century if I recall).

Quebec city left me the feeling that every stone had a story to tell. Also a lot of wedding photography.
