I see a benefit to not getting sick. Even when it won’t kill you, catching a cold sucks. I have no concern that I’m going to die of Covid but I’ll happily get a booster to avoid getting sick.

My sisters caught Omicron days before their boosters were available and they missed ten days of University and work. The booster doesn’t guarantee you won’t get a breakthrough but every bit helps.

I will offer though that if we’re not seeing a massive public health benefit, as opposed to an individual health benefit, that should factor into how many doses you need when they create vaccination requirements. I don’t think a double dosed 20 year old should be told they can’t eat inside if their risk of death or hospitalization is less than a triple vaccinated 65 year old.
Last year me and my wife started talking about moving to a new, bigger, house. She then started to see some websites and prices, and I started to feel pressured because it would mean I would have to work much harder than what I do now. That pressure started to make me feel very anxious, and I do not deal well with anxiety anymore (too much pressure before, there's so much you can do with motivation self-talk). She has been very supportive before, etc., but her actions resulted in pressure anxiety for me.

This just to let you know that sometimes we feel the (subtle) pressure to move on faster, better, keep buying things, renovating the house (as you mentioned in your post), etc. What I did was to have a serious talk with my wife where I mentioned that all this talk was making me feeling pressured and anxious, and that to move I would have to work more hours, and that it doesn't meet my goals as I need free time for myself and my own things. Eventually she understood, stop putting pressure on me, and dropped that talk.

Of course, it seems simple (A => B), but I had to search inside myself which are some of my personal goals, what do I really need (vs want) in life, etc. Only after I defined these things (by lots of introspection and journal writing) did I feel confident enough in putting some breaks in this thing. For instance, you may want those 10M (you mentioned somewhere), but in fact you may only need time for yourself.

All in all, just to suggest that you should carefully do an introspection (search for articles on how to find your goals in life, things like that, and adapt to yourself). It will take you some time, and you may not be 100% sure of things, but more sure than you are now. Then, talk to your wife, and if she's a good one, she will understand and support you.
Depends how you look at it: relatives or absolutes. If the infection risk of an 18 year old is 10%, half is 5%. If the infection risk of a 70 year old is 40%, half is 20%. In absolute terms, the younger age group benefits less. This, however, is obvious based on all information we've known since almost the start of the pandemic, and is not useful at all.

Even if younger people stopped getting infected with these numbers, they could never have similar benefit compared to the older cohort.

It seems an awful lot like you're just declaring, without evidence, people who disagree with you as cranks. You think your view should be obvious, but you also aren't able to articulate it very well, or at all - beyond asserting your point and that those who disagree with you are non-substantive cranks.
The UCEPROTECTL blacklists self-clear after a while and it's not nearly as bad other "real" blacklists. Considering all the other hassles one must engage in for self-hosted mail, this one is not high on my list of worries.

But yes it's frustrating that my mailhost can be guilty by association despite being in good standing otherwise.

And of course the side-benefit for Gmail to enforce more anti-spam provisions is that it increases the reliability of the data they can mine from your mail, and my mail too since so many people still use Gmail.

Benevolent dictators are still a bad thing, even if you agree with 100% of their policies.

Precedent matters. And the precedent now is a governor can restrict vital freedoms (movement, congregation, commerce, religion, expression, etc.) for several years without restriction so long as he or she is of the same party controlling the legislature and courts.

This is a lesson learned over and over again by the parties. They are ok with massive overreach when their guy does it, but then suddenly learn to take umbrage the moment they lose power.

Thankfully some Democrats in Washington State recognize this and have introduced limits on his power to 90 days without congressional approval.
They continued to get repeated complaints about scalability, and it became more and more clear to them that they would have to implement their own agent, in the vein of Puppet and Chef.

They also got complaints about Ansible scripts failing in weird ways because of all the different shell versions, and their scripts weren’t written in a sufficiently robust manner.

That was a pretty killer one-two punch.

We should teach kids coding for the same reason we teach them woodworking or repairing stuff. It's a basic craft that may help you later in life. Of course you still have to apply the craft in the right situations. But just because you're not going to build a house right now, there's still sense in teaching you how do hold a hammer.

Kind of strange to call Lightning convoluted and then cite Ethereum as a foil. Lightning is much simpler than what Ethereum is trying to do, and evidently so when you compare progress on each so far.
> I guess what's going on here, the reason people are divided, is that on software that you dislike (or are forced to use) people generally hate settings and just want the thing to work. On software that people love (like a piece of software that helps you make music or edit video) then people generally enjoy being able to customize it further and further.

I don't think that's quite it. I think the ability to set the software to work the way you want it to can turn a piece of software from one you dislike into one you love. [EDIT:] Or, vice versa, the lack of the ability to do so can turn a piece of software from one you would have loved into one you dislike. [/EDIT]

Because "a city on Mars" is both just a pipe dream and convenient marketing for SpaceX. Throwing money at it would be like throwing money in a pit and lighting it on fire, unless of course, the game could be seen as a sales funnel for SpaceX investors or PR.

Mars is incapable of ever holding an atmosphere that humans could live in, the surface is highly irradiated and liquid water can't exist on it, and the soil and rocks are full of highly toxic perchlorates.

Assuming those facts weren't the case, a video game could never model the insane amount of variables a real "city on Mars" would need to factor in for success.

On the math side, the one thing that is supposed to make math real is story problems. And story problems seem to cause a lot of grief for a number of students (I know that virtually no one in my class liked or could do well on story problems). However without them I don't think I would have advanced as much in math studies, because they did have that effect on me of making the raw numbers actually mean something.
Media entry level wage is typically pretty good. The problem is it doesn’t scale as fast as most other professions. Look at mid-career salary and it is a bit different story.

Money is the gateway to "fun" for me. Working enough to afford the stuff I like and never so much so that I can't spend that money. Find the right balance. And if your job/company makes you miserable, hire someone else to do it, you will earn less, but will have more time to do other things more meaningful to you, whatever that is, spend time with family etc...
Just a guess, but it kind of sounds like machine code loop alignment could be the cause. Modern CPUs really like their jump targets 32 byte aligned.

If someone wants to "disrupt" the automotive industry, forget about electric or self driving, build a decent car with no computer in it and no data connection, that is easily maintained on the owners terms. That's all I want.

One more point: when you look at the pricing on most car company websites now, everything defaults to $/week or similar anyway (usually financing over 8 years). Deliberately or not, that is already setting the tone for how people think about buying cars, in terms of their periodic money outlay instead of total cost.
For the past five years or so at least 80% of spam that reaches my inbox is from Gmail, Yahoo, or Microsoft.

I've been running my own mail server for 9 years now and I don't use any blacklists.

Blacklists are the red line districts of the web. They are just a large blunt tool used in a very inappropriate way. The system of IP address space ownership assignment where the vast majority of the IP address users will never own an IP address. It's like renting a business suite in a large office building and being accountable for some unscrupulous neighbor.
The study of polynomials is motivating because it can solve an interesting class of practical problems in great generality. IME, most kids are sufficiently smart to grok that by the time the subject is introduced. This generalizes to the study of "abstract" math as a whole. Polynomials are a nice, "toy" example of mathematical abstraction, where the result is still, in some ways, concrete enough to be immediately accessible. It's sensible to expect that the same may be true of programming.

What is your concern regarding the booster?
Hello!

This 2019 paper touches on CSF while awake -- CSF tends to be coupled with the respiration cycle. We know that you can also induce CSF flow by changing respiration [1].

Recent papers have shown that there can be coupling between the hemodynamic response and CSF while individuals are awake [2].

Best one I've found is https://keypirinha.com/ which can be expanded via Python plugins (if I remember correctly). It also have Everything integration.
With the paranoidal view you're placing yourself outside the realms of sensible discussion.

You can't really think that some politicians are knowingly and deliberating proposing an existential threat to "free society and democracy."

I wouldn't say its forbidden. It's just that the antivaxxers have become the new "them", and "enemy". I'm not a fan of them, but ignoring the obvious problems in our healthcare system and blaming it on the action of a bunch of people who for multitudes of reasons don't trust the government is just liberalism in action.

But yeah, I'm really frustrated that we're ignoring the obvious problems here.
I used https://pypi.org/project/appdaemon-testing/. You can write a simple test file which does things like sets a device state, then asserts that services were called or whatnot.

It doesn't test that the service calls are correctly written, just that they were made. So, very useful for unit testing syntax / logic, but not a full end-to-end integration test solution. Still, with python being an interpreted language, this is super useful. I don't want to have to wait for it actually to be sunset to determine I have a syntax error in that branch of the code, for example.

I don't actually have the tests running on the HA device. I have them on my desktop where I develop the appdaemon scripts, and then I copy only the scripts over to HA. I'm sure there are multiple ways to do it.
If you're curious why it has taken Google accounts so long to switch over to webauthn, there was a fairly interesting discussion about this on the mozilla-dev mailing list back in 2019[0]. The tldr is: some Android OEMs baked U2F into their OS images that were then never updated. Switching to webauthn could have effectively locked users out of these devices.

> And story problems seem to cause a lot of grief for a number of students

Story problems are very badly taught in the U.S. schooling system. Other educational approaches use them more sensibly as gradual motivation for complex reasoning about arithmetic, and eventually algebra.

A good review article on the subject: Persson, Ulf and Toom, André: Word Problems in Russian Mathematical Education, available at http://toomandre.com/my-articles/swedish/ULFENG.PDF (Word Problems in Russia and America http://toomandre.com/travel/sweden05/WP-SWEDEN-NEW.pdf a more detailed article on the same topic, may also be worth reading.)
Why does that matter? Cops weren’t listening to those old face to face communications. That was practically impossible which is analogous to the technical impossibility of listening in on E2EE connections. Instead they were cracking cases in other ways (physical evidence, confidential sources, etc.)
Depends on whether or not one believes that we live in a free, democratic society today. In many ways, yes, we do, in many others, no, we don't.
Why don't they write/draw a Sankey diagram with something like 1 million people on December 1st 2019, with age bracket percentages, and then draw how some got COVID, some got hospitalized, some died, some got the vaccine, some got a booster, some died from things that are not COVID, all in proportion to how it happened in US population. The width of the flows would make it clear how effective vaccines are.
Consider what is collected today:

If you video chat with doctors, look at the privacy policies of the video chat platform. IME, it doesn't differ from most other applications: We collect what we want, including medical data; we share it with partners for marketing, etc. And of course the only clause that matters: We can change our policy at any time by posting a new one to this page (i.e., without notification, effectively), so effectively we have no policy and can do whatever we want.

Someone I know needed a prescription medication that they didn't want in public records, for understandable reasons (I would be concerned too). It wasn't a 'controlled substance' like a narcotic; what they wanted was perfectly legal and appropriate; it was just a prescription drug that implied a certain underlying condition and related events, and they wanted privacy. They asked me for suggestions. I suggested that the best they could do was to find a small, independent pharmacy; call ahead to verify that the pharmacy didn't share its data; and pay with cash (apparently ID was required to obtain any prescription drug). They did all that and reconfirmed all that at the pharmacy. The next time they were at a doctor in the giant local health co, the nurse asked about the drug, which appeared in the health system's medical records. Later, for unrelated reasons, they obtained their own credit report and it included the drug (!).

Epilogue: When I go to the doctor these days, as I'm signing in they tell me to sign on a small touch-sensitive pad. The pad is about the size of a signature line and displays nothing. What am I signing? That I received their privacy notifications. (I didn't omit a step - they never mentioned or offered them otherwise.) My pharmacy is similar - 'sign', they tell me.
Not certain. But there are a lot of implementations very similar to mine in tons of other languages and vms. None display this afaik. Also I get different behavior with JVM/JDK 7.
Why oh why can't we just settle on 'transparency' as the best word to use in this space?

Its more mentally simple than 'opacity' ('transparent' is a more common word than 'opaque' to hear used in the real world - as 'opaque' is the default of most objects/surfaces, having 'transparency' is a special property that needs to be described), more correct than 'translucency' (also used commonly including in this thread but in real definition means an object that passes light but not a clear image of what is behind, like a frosted window - light is not travelling in a straight line but is being bent) or 'transmissivity' which the author uses (needlessly making it more technical and opaque to the end user - and actually less specific as transmissivity could be translucency also)

Something I don’t do enough of and that seems like maybe the author might also benefit from emphasizing is getting way out of my comfort zone with my projects.

I tend to huddle in this distributed systems / commodity ML / tight C++ cluster: stuff good for scaling consumer websites but not really dead center for much else.

I need to do some hardware (or at least some embedded systems), some phone app stuff, some web stuff, and a zillion other things.

The author seems to be fairly tightly clustered around PHP/web/REST stuff. All that stuff is useful and important but focusing too much on any area can get stale.

At least for me.
> Well one could argue Google and FB services are not free.

I don't possibly see how. The services cost no money, thus they are unequivocally free. Perhaps one could reasonably argue that just because something is free doesn't mean the user isn't entitled to any rights, but torturing the definition of free to suit your argument strikes me as obviously fallacious.

> If they are providing their services for free, how can that be

Because advertisers pay them. This logic is like saying FM radio isn't free because it has ads, this is just not true.
Exactly. The author misses the point fiddling with a limited meaning of 'coding', while teaching kids to code obviously involves everything including motivation, play, solving the problem, breaking up a problem into manageable parts and coding.

By the way, our kids follow Python 101 in Minecraft Educational Edition, and have some fun with it.
I think the only benefit of teaching kids to program a computer (i hate the term code as a synonym) is that it teaches problem solving - assuming it's being taught well of course
Nothing to do with disagreement. It's pretty obvious from what the two of them have been saying on the public record.

Sorry to be blunt - if you take these guys seriously (let alone as "domain experts"), you're terribly naive. You're being played, and played very hard.
If you associate warm and fuzzy feelings with a company, you give them more business -- a very old advertising principle.

Knowing that Spotify doesn't want you to beat up Asians gives the majority of people warm and fuzzies. And I suspect the tiny minority of dudes that want to punch an an old Asian lady are unlikely to do what Spotify tells them to do anyway.
I'm going to throw a really wild idea out there at you. If you want to move residences, find some location that has particularly poor internet but is otherwise very desirable to live, probably quite rural, and build a small ISP.
