My whole family got Omicron. For us it was no big deal. All of us were vaccinated, I was boosted about two weeks prior. Vaccination did not stop us from getting it but it may well have modified the course of the disease.

People had no idea the highly transmissible Omicron variant was going to come along. Against prior variants the mRNA vaccines really looked like a miracle in that you could really get people vaccinated before the disease got to them. Moderna said they could have an Omicron vaccine ready in 100 days but I (I think the median person) got it 45 days after it was discovered.

I am sick of the armchair quarterbacking. In our family we had our own model for how it was going to progress last summer and we thought that the seasonal effects would really drive it, the Delta and Omicron variants broke all our assumptions.

The new battle is over variants it's a global problem. China has kept the virus out with strict but targeted lockdowns. Even if they achieve "zero COVID" that won't stop variants from being bred in the rest of the world. Even if the US controls it will spread in Africa and other developing countries. Even if the blue states do everything right than the red states will breed new variants.

Stricter controls in better controlled areas are going to have a limited impact, what will make a different is stricter controls in less controlled areas.
I am in a similar situation. I would love to purchase one, but my current laptop works fine and I don't need to make more e-waste due to cool new shiny thing! But they will stay on my mind.
This reminds me of https://glitch.com
I assume they're going to expand their laptop offering either way, but adding a larger model is probably not want they mean with more ambitious :)

The tension between "Follow the Law" and "Drive like a human" is interesting.
On the one hand, humans violate the law all the time: Rolling Stops, Speed Limits, Driving without Registration / Insurance, Passing on the Right, Left Lane Camping, Carpool lane violations, Stopping after the white line at a stop sign / light, not using turn signals properly, following too closely.

Any FSD System that drives on the freeway and follows the speed limit is doomed to failure. Likewise, as evidenced by the crazy amount of "right on red" fines in cities, humans don't come to a full 3-second stop.

"Drive like a human" seems a reasonable goal for now.
It actually is incredibly complicated. You can tell, because every individual person you speak to will have a different interpretation of which rules are there for safety and which ones can be ignored.

The fact that you start your post about how an AI can make such a determination with the words "it's not complicated" discredits you.

They point of having 2 drives is being able to better isolate your secure system.

If you physically unplug your secure drive then you know for sure that no fun stuff is going on behind your back.

I'm not entirely sure about secure boot when it comes to validating the boot loader of an installed system so I can't vouch for that but I do know that UEFI kits aside, unless you have a proper way to validate the secure systems boot loader it could be tampered with if the disk is accessible by a compromised system.

IMO the point is not to get rid of windows but to isolate whichever insecure system you use in a way in which it can't hurt the secure system (it could even be a secondary Linux system where you use Wine if that's what you want)
I've more than once asked a cold-call recruiter how they got my number where the answer has been a rather candid, "there are markets for such information".

Kinda makes me regret the few years my LinkedIn profile had my phone number public, but I do wonder how successful these questionable personal data marketplaces are. I certainly haven't had a conversation get beyond "this is spam".
Oh, good. The first comment there references my closed issue from 2017, but it's nice to see this being given some more consideration.

The law is just a tool. It routinely does not permit the optimal choice for neither yourself nor society as a whole. Like other tools, sometimes the best choice is to ignore it.

----------

>The comment you are replying to said nothing about the law.

>> Why bother?

>Because you're operating heavy machinery that regularly kills people.

The context of the quote by globular-toast is from this paragraph:

>When driving I follow the spirit of the law, not necessarily the letter. If I'm approaching a stop sign and I can see clearly there are no other vehicles, bikes, people, etc, I slow down to very near a stop, but not a full stop. Why bother? The spirit of the law is to make sure I'm correctly yielding to other vehicles.

There's no doubt there was reference to law.

Once I learned this gesture, dragging with the touchpad went from "horribly frustrating" to "so easy I can do it without thinking". Would be curious if/how it doesn't work for some folks.
This has nothing to do with the article really, but stupid signs will always be a problem as long as they exist. In Austria, there are signs on the highway that allow electric cars to obey a higher speed limit (130 Km/h instead of 100 Km/h; https://autorevue.at/ratgeber/ig-l-immissionsschutzgesetz-lu... ) provided they have (optional, but now standard) green number plates. My car doesn't know that it doesn't have the green plates, so it cannot know what limit to use. Also, it can't look up the paragraph quoted on the sign to read the current version of the law, presumably.
And yet a couple years ago, they claimed Autopilot was full self-driving.
This is great news! Congrats to Framework!
In Germany, most contracts (and any regular job has a contract) say something like 1 month notice for the first six months on both the employer and employee’s side, and 3 months for the employee after that trial period, and possibly longer for the employer after you’ve been around for several years.

My colleagues were shocked when I confirmed that offering more than two weeks’ notice in the US is super nice to your employer, and two weeks is not considered unprofessional.

I've always wanted a slightly less draconian version of this- a speed limit setting that makes the throttle pedal harder to push down once you've hit the a given speed. Sort of like a natural cruise control. This would keep you from accidentally creeping up over the limit, which is certainly something that I do, but still allow you to go faster if you make the conscious choice.

Much less radical is just to use the command line options to create a new profile and see what happens. I have fixed obscure problems in firefox by blowing away the profile. 99% of what I need is stored in firefox sync so it's an easy process to delete an old profile and sync back up. Sounds like OP wants to get to the bottom of this though as a haX0r-ng project.
> Companies always prioritize a strong referral, ignoring mediocre interview performance, and will even skip the reference checks

I wish this were always true. When I worked as a recruiter, I saw referrals routinely get tossed onto the stack of resumes with no special preference. How candidates are treated completely depends on the preferences of the hiring manager & corporate red tape, even at smaller companies.
FSD might be a complete joke at this point. Tesla should open source all of their data, code, and documents at this point. Clearly Tesla or any of this vulture capital funded companies cannot get the job done.

It's worth a try, though Firefox has discontinued support for NPAPI plugins since version 52 (March 2017)⋮ https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/npapi-plugins

The only plugins in the Plugins section of about:addons should be the OpenH264 plugin and the Widevine plugin (only if DRM is enabled). Both can be disabled there.

Yes. I made the question, given the discussion is being treated as much wider, beyond GA.

I always wonder about security with these cloud management companies. Instead of the KGB/NSA/hackers trying to break into AWS etc, they go for a cloud management company and get access to lots of companies. I’m not sure how it could be helped - it’s the nature of the beast, but I personally have concerns.
It wasn't my first search, but after few failed attemps with torrent, I did, which had better results[1], but the app stopped transfering, and she was unable to select more then one item at the time. Since I use Android I usually try press and hold to mark an item then use the option menu to select all. But she said that she didn't find that option and the pressing and holding just showed her the image.

Few hours of trying different stuff and apps later, I decided to google how to select multiple items on iPhone (You have to drag with two fingers), but by then we were already trying Mega.nz which for her kept interrupting.

I mean, their goals seem very understandable given the current abysmal status of C++ (with regards to insane language complexity, historical cruft, and ergonomic issues like compile times and build systems). My only skepticism is that the thing they want might be better achieved by making a fork of C++, since there are just too many things to rip out of and replace. (Ideally something which can easily interoperate with existing C++ code, but make some huge breaking changes that simplifies and streamlines the language).
Wow, this is super quick and easy. It will definitely be replacing draw.io for my cloud architecture diagrams immediately. The only feature I would request is text boxes for notes.
Yes, the wrapper generators would not be built into the compiler, they're just little pieces of software that generate the relevant code (anyone could develop one in their own language in a couple of days).

The language exists merely as a way of directly interfacing with the ABI, a way to get the libraries out the door so interest in the ABI exists (same as how VSCode made LSP popular).

The problem with doing Python <-> Swift is that you cannot (and should not) try to expose the entirety of Python and Swift to either side. So you need an "extern ABI" solution to expose your Swift code, except this is not built in to the Swift compiler so now you are in trouble.

If you go the external route you end up with SWIG, which is something you only use when you have no other option (CVC4 moved away from it for example).

Having a language that directly supports the ABI sidesteps this issue. All code written in the language works with the ABI directly so you get the wrappers for free without thinking about how to implement them. A lot of libraries are written in C directly for this very reason!

Once it becomes popular enough, languages would implement "extern ABI" directly, and can now talk to each other over it without the middleman. Same as how a compiler with LSP support can be used in editors that are not VSCode.
Well, most Rust vs C++ comments, like the one I was replying to, tend to lack a perspective of what the market actually uses, and how Rust is dependent on C++ toolchains (at least for now), so.
I think that's a little strange. You haven't maintained a single relationship after having been coworkers?

Try messaging someone you used to work with to check in - you may enjoy catching up or even stumble into being able to give or receive help.
This. Elon is all "move fast and break things"; "things" in this case being Teslas and the people inside them. And why wouldn't he? The federal government barely pays attention to wanting to audit self-driving technologies as it is.
I've been using the OneModel beta for a couple months now, watching as it matures.

Personally, I'm a huge draw.io fan, and I use the desktop app for many things. While draw.io is great for many types of diagrams it's certainly perfect at none of them. At the end of the day I find myself creating boxes of the same size, formatting lines to be the same style, and routing arrows all around the place.

That's what I love about OneModel: it's currently built as a tool to design system diagrams. I don't have to muck around with box sizes, OneModel knows that a box is a service. I don't have to muck around with line widths and arrow styles, OneModel knows that an arrow represents a service relationship. I don't need to route arrows, OneModel knows that an arrow shouldn't overlap a service icon.

I'm really looking forward to some of the obvious places this tool can go. Attach metadata to a service that points to a GitHub repo and get deployment status. Attach metadata to a line to specify protocol, jump to a firewall rule, or consume Prometheus metrics. Maybe we'll even be able to export a diagram as a Terraform script one day!

Yes, totally exhausting.

Most of what you describe are people issues / classic bike shedding.

You should be able to find some ways to shut this down fairly efficiently.

"A talks to service B and it should instead be talking to service C":

* Yes, I agree! Let me know when you have a PR to look at!

* Yes, it really should! Please create a work item for it, and we can prioritize it in the context of our other initiatives!

* Should it? What problem does that solve? How will our customers tell the difference?

* Let's review our product roadmap and mission statement and see which heading this falls under?

* This is our daily standup where we briefly touch on all of our work in progress, please set up a dedicated time for a deep dive on your idea!

Those are some polite ways to shut this stuff down and move onto whatever you want to talk about. They might work, and if they don't, you can be sure you have some major personality problems to contend with.

I'm no psychologist... but I think a lot of people that indulge in this stuff just want to be heard, and in some cases want to rearrange deck chairs so it looks like they're taking action and getting stuff done.

Ultimately you need to find a way to move the discussion whatever you find important and stimulating, and not let these folks set the agenda.

The WDC model (WUH721816ALE6L0) seems to only be available in Europe, not the US. It was 549,00 EUR last time I looked back in November. I believe the last digit is about data erasure with 0 being "Instant Secure Erase", 1 being Bulk Data Encryption (SATA), 4 being Secure Erase (overwrite only). We only have reliability data for the model listed.

This sounds exactly like the issue I've been having with my company's instance of Nexus Repository 3 for the past several months.
