I wasn't familiar with that theory, so leaning on others here (I'm taking out the cites since it really muddles the readability but they're in the source file). This all makes sense to me;

> A specific laboratory escape scenario involves accidental infection in the course of serial passage of a SARSr-CoV in common laboratory animals such as mice. However, early SARSCoV-2 isolates were unable to infect wild-type mice. Although murine models are useful for studying infection in vivo and testing vaccines, they often result in mild or atypical disease in hACE2 transgenic mice. These findings are inconsistent with a virus selected for increased pathogenicity and transmissibility through serial passage through susceptible rodents. Although SARS-CoV-2 has since been engineered and mouse-adapted by serial passage, specific mutations in the spike protein, including N501Y, are necessary for such adaptation in mice. Notably, N501Y has arisen convergently in multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern in the human population, presumably being selected to increase ACE2 binding affinity.

> If SARS-CoV-2 resulted from attempts to adapt a SARSr-CoV for study in animal models, it would likely have acquired mutations like N501Y for efficient replication in that model, yet there is no evidence to suggest such mutations existed early in the pandemic. Both the low pathogenicity in commonly used laboratory animals and the absence of genomic markers associated with rodent adaptation indicate that SARS-CoV-2 is highly unlikely to have been acquired by laboratory workers in the course of viral pathogenesis or gain-of function experiments.

Basically if you wanted to study sars cov2 in transgenic mice with adapted hACE2 receptors, there are obvious mutations that you would engineer into the virus to make it more stable and pathogenic. None of these mutations existed in the first samples. But importantly, when covid was spreading in humans, these same mutations naturally appeared through convergent evolution in several variants. Contrary to many claims, the virus wasn't close to being optimized for pathogenicity which would've been the ostensible purpose of GoF research. It really "acts" like it was recently passed to an intermediate host, then fairly quickly began to infect humans.

I can't handle the British Spectator editorial. It's pretty unashamedly what it is, which I suppose is the point, but it's too depressing. Given the past editors, you would want to think its tolerably accurate to the desires in the heart of the UK Tory party.

Perhaps I am alone in finding wry amusement that Michael Heseltine cannot but be considered left-wing now. Sure, he was always a "wet" but he was still a member of the Thatcher cabinet, and all it stood for. Well.. right up until the Westland Helicopter business.

The spectator doesn't like him. I think that speaks volumes.

Let's check the facts using Wikipedia:

"Thompson received a Bachelor of Science in 1965 and a master's degree in 1966, both in electrical engineering and computer science, from the University of California, Berkeley, where his master's thesis advisor was Elwyn Berlekamp."

"[Dennis Ritchie] graduated from Harvard University with degrees in physics and applied mathematics."

I think that an operating system where you can't rename or delete a file that is open by some process is idiotic beyond words, even without MS-DOS drive letter names thrown in.

To work around the problem by providing a function to schedule a file rename at the next reboot is ironically cynical: you expect the system to crash often enough that this is viable.

I have a bunch of renewable energy calculations here:

https://nextjournal.com/erik-engheim/renewable-energy-calcul...

They show that you need roughly 25 m2 to cover energy use of a family. That easily fits on most roofs. A regular apartment is at least 80 m2, so you only use a fraction of the roof space. That means regular roof could in principle cover a 3 story apartment building with all the needed power.

Of course industry and business also use power. But if every house had 50 m2 solar panels on the roof on average you would cover that as well.

Thus roofs are in principle more than enough for most countries. Sure this will not always work, but it actually works quite well to combine solar power and agriculture: Agrovoltics. It can actually improve yields and give extra income to farmer which can sell electricity.

These kinds of things is not taken into consideration when comparing land usage of nuclear power and solar power. Solar power can be mixed with residential areas and farms. Nuclear power can't. You are not going to place a fusion power plant on people's roofs.

Our home gym is between my office and the rest of the house, so I do things like 3 pull ups on my way to make espresso in the morning, or 10 kb swings after a boring meeting.

It's quite common, at least in the US (where I have most of my experience). It's generally not scary, pilots coordinate with each other on the radio, announcing their intentions. There are, however, some pilots who seem to not make more than the bare minimum number of calls or don't seem interested in listening to the other pilots near the airport.

Additionally, there are guidelines for how to enter the airspace of an uncontrolled airport to reduce congestion and the chance of a collision. There are a few exceptions, one of them being an approach during poor weather, which appears to have been the case in the incident mentioned here. In those situations, the approach controller usually coordinates arriving and departing aircraft to use appropriate runways. I'm not sure why that didn't happen in this case, but I haven't gone and looked for the ATC archives.

The younger women aren't actually interested in you. They're just using you as entertainment and keeping you around as a backup option. It's a common online dating strategy for people who are in high demand.

No surprise that women in their 40's are more responsive. There are less men alive at their age and less men interested in dating their peer age. Many men in their 40s want to date someone in their 30s. Men in their 50s want a 40s, etc. It's uncommon for men to want to date someone in the same age bracket as they get older.

I'd be more likely to use setjmp/longjmp to accomplish try/catch in C than goto. Goto is fine for error handling, but exceptions are a bit different, since they have the try/catch/finally structure. Personally I prefer to avoid exceptions, but if I were forced to implement them I'd not use goto!
You can easily throw solar panels in a land fill. It isn't a big problem. Slag heaps from coal is already a much larger problem than a solar panel landfill would ever be. A single coal mine has a bigger slag problem than all the worlds solar panels combined.

Yes, we should take the problem serious, but it is also grossly overrated. It is certainly not a reason to avoid solar panels.

It's descriptivism vs prescriptivism.

Prescriptivist "data" is plural because it comes from the cartographical term "datum". Descriptivists say it's singular because nobody in the 400 years has used the term in an information context while referring to the geodetic datum.

This is the equivalent of the Washington Post being snobby by saying that technically a tomato turns it into a fruit salad.

Obsession about equality as a central tenet in Christianity? You may want to read up on the crusades, slavery, the 30 year war, how even other Christian immigrants (Irish, Italian, etc) were welcomed into the US etc.

Also, just because some Christians share some of the morals of your humanist friend does not imply any relation whatsoever. There appears to be that desire from religious groups to often exaggerate and emphasize any such correlation as something more. When your friend meets with his family at the end of December and again at the equinox in spring - do you point out how Paganist he is? And, when you as a Christian presumably celebrate Christmas and Easter with your family - do you tell them they are just like Pagans as well? If not - why not?
> I mean, how many societies have a religion centered around some other ethnic group?

Plenty. Southeast Asia has religions centered around Indian or Arab religions. Same for Iran and much of Central Asia with Islam.

All these places have adapted the other ethnicity's belief system to their own culture.

It's no different for Christianity. Bertrand Russell described it as the combination of Greek philosophy with Jewish mythology and Roman societal/power structures.

I love Postgres and mostly agree, but there’s one caveat: Postgres’s full text indexing is better than most non-Lucene options, but it’s still a toy compared to anything using Lucene (eg ElasticSearch). If you need to support indexed search of documents, especially multi-language corpora, you need to use the right tool for the job and Postgres isn’t it.
You’re right of course - religion and tradition feed on each other. I’m imagining it as a dynamic system with feedback loops, etc. where organized religion plays the role of the mechanism that slows down change and provides stasis.

Honor killings happen because kinship ties are so strong. The individual becomes completely subsumed within the family. Anything that brings shame to the individual is imputed to the whole family. Moreover, controlling reproduction becomes extremely important because that is how kinship links between families are created.
same could be said to gentoo, from experience over 2 decades and at least 5 projects involved yocto(back then it was openembedded), for the same project, yocto will take 5x more time/efforts per my measurement. yes adding stuff is fine, building is the slowest but I can wait, however if something went wrong, be prepared to debug openembdded/yocto-itself for days, this does not exist in other alternatives: you debug your own code, not the framework there.

It's over engineered, over rated, great for consultants to charge hours, terrible for companies(except for big guns) to deliver product fast.

Watching the video someone else linked [1], the tail strike seems incredibly obvious. Why did the crew have to be notified at all? I know in some cases a tail strike can be slight, but here you can both hear it and see that it clearly affected the plane in some way as the cameraman dropped the phone.

Also, that the B350 crew was able to report it is also suspect. I'm guessing they thought they had right away as they were descending (I'm not a pilot, but someone here definitely had priority I'd assume) but if you can see a plane taking off at you well enough to see the tail hit the ground, surely you should go around?

Seems like the classic 'both parties were in the wrong' situation. Not reporting such a harsh tailstrike does seem rather wild though. Mistakes happen, ignoring them on the other hand is something else.

At a certain point its just high tech skeet shooting.

> Spare me the uneducated "tech bro" commentary that I've heard throughout. It's unoriginal.

Comedy writers make original takes, I’m just some rando on the internet sharing my opinion. Likely it’s gonna be an opinion you heard before.

> I'm eager to hear your ranked choices and what policies made so much more sense to you though than Yang's and what Yang's good ideas were.

Why?

Are you looking for five (5) opportunities to roast different politicians running in the Democratic primary that I think were better qualified for the mayoral position than Yang? No thanks, I don’t see the point. Pick anyone that ran. Chances are, I preferred that person over Yang.

You’re also casting the discussion strictly in terms of policies. Policies are only one of the reasons that I would choose one candidate over another—I disliked Yang for lots of other reasons besides policy.

> Yang made PR plunders sure, but it was completely disproportionate.

It wasn’t just “PR blunders”, he made mistake after mistake, and those mistakes betrayed unfamiliarity with basic stuff that a good NYC mayor should know. He proposed making domestic violence shelters (that already exist), he proposed having the MTA take control of various bridges and tunnels (which are already under its control), he made comments about the conflict in Israel and Palestine (with predictable results). And then when he (predictably) got some bad press, he whined about it like a schoolkid being bullied at recess.

It would be one thing if he actually were a little kid getting picked on by bullies. But he’s an adult, this is politics, and the reason he got picked on so much by the press is because he was a constant source of entertainment—either when he made a basic mistake, or when he whined about how he was being treated by the press. That kind of behavior gets clicks and eyeballs online.

> It's odd to me that you can be so complimentary towards Eric Adams though…

Maybe I was relying too much on subtext. “Say what you will about X” one of the most uncomplimentary ways you can introduce a subject into a discussion. Even though grammatically, it’s a request for you to talk about Eric Adams, it’s not actually a request for you to talk about Eric Adams.

I don’t know if the above explanation is appropriate or welcome to you, but I have started explaining subtext in direct terms, for various reasons.

> Yang talked about the mentally ill, homeless population, the need for enforcement of Kendra's law, psych beds, and the concern of ordinary New Yorkers.

Yeah, among other things, he proposed homeless shelters dedicated to domestic violence victims, which already exist. He talked about a ton of things, but talk isn’t enough. He showed that he lacked basic knowledge about the policies he proposed.
Sure, it may be too little, too late.

You don't know that until the failure is complete, though, and "it may fail" is a terrible reason to not try the best shots we have.
