I was in the process of recovering from some serious medical issues when I lost access to my doctors from covid.
It was a scary set of months. Thankfully the last attempt at medication, after 3 years of failures, actually helped with out extreme side effects. If covid had been a month earlier I would have died.
As it is I had to start replacing prescription blood thinners medications with OTC meds. Since appointments were so hard to get.

Actual covid was scary and upped my clotting and stroke problems for a good six months.
I find part of the issue is how fleeting opportunities for intimate conversation are. It's been a long time since I've sat down with a drink, a friend and a few hours to kill. I have friends and do a lot of things, but they're all activity based. I do love that, but it can make conversation pretty shallow.

Another part of the issue is the internet, for many reasons, but specifically related to this is that it's killed people's curiosity and their ability to discuss a topic for fun. The internet gives people their opinions, and answers any ambiguity in an instant. Want to know what the best tire for your bike is? No need to discuss it, the internet told them what's correct, case closed.

This is incredibly ridiculous and nonsensical reasoning. In that case breastfeeding is unnatural because you stop doing it after infancy.

Beyond that, kids are around mixed age groups plenty. For me it was at afterschool programs, summer camps, dance classes, bowling, family (sibling, cousins), and playing with neighborhood kids.

That's a pretty bizarre reading of history. The Soviet Union declared war on Japan because Stalin had promised Roosevelt and Churchill at the 1943 Tehran conference, so this was not some sort of surprising or unwelcome development.
I agree - it’s shocking to me how immature any open source CRM out there is. Chatwoot is fantastic but only solves half of the equation. Chatwoot + a lightweight CRM would be a killer product for small B2B startups.
How much of these deaths are caused by COVID and how much are caused by anti-COVID measures (economical and emotional stress, isolation, depression)?
At the least, it is a self-reinforcing tragedy. ("Look, all the big players use framework xyz as well, it cannot be that bad then!") JavaScript being thrown at problems, for which it is not so well suited with all its warts. Web developers being thrown at problems, with which they do not have experience, because "Now we can use JS in the backend as well!". In many cases it sets organizations up for getting stuck at local maxima or for straight failure.
Vaccines had / have controlled groups where an increase in mortality can be observed. We don't have anywhere near that ability to track long-term outcomes of COVID.
Are you upset by all ads? If so, you might want to find a place to spend time online that’s not an ad/content marketing project for a VC firm.
The legal result of the settlement is that Musk can call himself a (co)founder, and so can Straubel & Wright. Even Eberhard agreed to that.

You may personally feel he's not entitled to the title, but that's just it, a personal feeling. He's literally legally entitled to have this title. Why contradict people on the internet, and say "actually, Musk is not a founder of Tesla"? If anything, it is (right now) disingenuous to claim he is not a founder, given that maybe not all people know the full history and some may believe that he didn't (legally) earn the title.
The atom bomb project was initiated out of a fear that Germany would get it first.

FWIW, I sent the email below (largely cribbed from the EFF).

Dear :

I am a constituent. I urge you to oppose the EARN IT act, S.3538. It does not strike a reasonable balance between fighting crimes and the rights of users to privacy and encryption.

The bill empowers every state or territory to create sweeping new Internet regulations, by stripping away the legal protections for websites and apps in Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996. The states will be allowed to pass whatever law they want to hold private companies liable, as long as they somehow relate their new rules to online child abuse.

The bill’s sponsors have stated that EARN IT will pressure Internet companies to do widespread scanning of user messages and photos. This scanning is incompatible with strong encryption. Consequently, the act allows states to pass laws that will punish companies when they deploy end-to-end encryption, or offer other encrypted services. This includes messaging services like WhatsApp, Signal, and iMessage, as well as web hosts like Amazon Web Services.

The sponsors have falsely claimed that the act would protect children. But abusive images are already highly illegal under federal law. Any Internet platforms that knows about child sexual abuse material being distributed or received are required to take action on it, and can be severely prosecuted if they do not.

EARN IT would lead to penalties for people and companies that use encryption. The harm done by this will fall on vulnerable people. Once we allow encryption to be compromised in order to scan for one thing, authoritarian regimes will demand the same capabilities to track information shared by activists and journalists. Another example is that people subject to domestic abuse, including children, won’t have secure channels of communication to report and reach out for trusted help.

Once again, I urge you to oppose the EARN IT act.

Thank you,

The international committee (ISO/IEC JTC1 SC32 WG3 Database Languages) that is responsible for the database language standards SQL and GQL is pretty good at writing standards and not as good at taking about the work in progress. SC32 WG3 is developing two related standards to support property graphs:

1. SQL/PGQ (ISO/IEC JTC1 9075 part 16) -- This adds language to create property graph views on top of existing SQL tables and write property graph queries in a GRAPH_TABLE function in an SQL FROM statement.

2. GQL (ISO/IEC JTC1 39075 Database Language GQL) -- This is a full declarative property graph database language to create, maintain, and query graphs. This includes support for both descriptive and prescriptive schemas.

The Graph Pattern Matching language is identical between the two standards. For more details about GPM, see https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.06217

The ISO process has a defines series of milestones. I will spare you the details at the moment.

SQL/PGQ will start a Draft International Standard (DIS) ballot in July 2022 and so will be a published standard next year - 2023.

GQL will finish a Committee Draft (CD) ballot this month (February 2022) and should be ready for a DIS ballot in early 2023. However because GPM is shared between SQL/PGQ and GQL, the GQL Graph Pattern Matching will be stable when SQL/PGQ goes to DIS ballot.

For a little more detail on the GQL standards process and content, take a look at the talks from the LDBC TUC meeting August 2021:

>They why are those US tech companies so successful in the EU with no viable local competitors, if nobody wants them?

US tech has too much money they burn it on shit. So any potential competitor is bought, you see some UK AI company pops up then Google buys it and 1 year later you read how Google made huge progress in AI. IMO EU needs to first fix the illegal US companies tax tricks, also fix the Apple software tax or apply a similar tax on closed platforms, "the closed platform tax" , this would mean less money for US SV devs to waste on shit ty stuff and more money for EU devs to try do something better.
I think you're completely wrong. This shows that the model learned a lot about at-a-glance math. Sure if you sit down with pen and paper you can get the answer, but few people could do these reliably in their head. But what you can do is figure the order of magnitude, and get a rough answer for the first few digits and last digits, each with their chance of being wrong. If anything, this shows that it learned math deeper than any normal computer calculator.

I understand the rationale behind this and admit some of the most contented times of my life were associated with wanting less in some sense.

But when I've struggled the most too, this advice has always came across as rationalizing failure or sour grapes of "I never wanted that anyway", which has never been never helpful to me.

I also sort of wonder if the phenomenon is about being satisfied rather than wanting less per se. That is, if you're successful in obtaining what you want, it might seem as if you're wanting less but it's really just that you don't feel the need for more.

I guess I just think this all is unhelpful at some level, because awhile it's true that "not wanting" in the sense of "not having lack of fulfillment" is good, its unclear how that always applies.

There's also the issue of looking back and feeling pain of regret from lost opportunities, which it seems would be of increased risk from this approach to life.

"Similar" is an inherently semantic property.
Why would the vaccine have any side effect that COVID itself doesn't also have?
I'm not sure it makes a lot of difference unless you have hundreds of snapshots. The way changes work to BTRFS is that every change without snapshots does most of the same stuff that a change with snapshots does. If however you have many snapshots (more than 500 according to rumours, I've seen it with over 1000) performance can get really bad. If your script to make snapshot backups works and the script to remove old ones doesn't work properly then the system runs fine for months and suddenly goes ridiculously slow.

A VM with a BTRFS filesystem running on a host using BTRFS gives serious write amplification. But if the real storage is SSD then it's not too bad.
A lot of movements turn out to be wrong while simple solutions to problems just succeed.

I used some lambda functions, but punching code in a proprietary environment does nothing aside from making you dependent on it. It seems to be not as smart solution to anything. if I integrate Alexa to an IOT device it can make sense. Otherwise you will create an unmanageable monster.

How do you test the code, how to you version it? What are your specifications on the environment the code is run in? It never sounds like a smart idea and proponents did not really elaborate too extensively. It makes sense for the provider of cloud solutions for obvious reasons. So are those that advertise serverless just poor victims?
"Risk" has been almost exclusively defined in terms of hospitalization / death throughout the pandemic. Long term effects are poorly understood and not considered in risk calculations.
People seem to be confusing birth lottery with determination. Working hard is table stakes. But you seem to imply that anyone who isn’t poor can do it, if only they work hard enough.

I think this mindset is mistaken.
It is personal. As long as people around me are vaccinated, why would they care about my health? The vaccine doesn't prevent transmitting

In case you are talking about burdening the medical system, why not apply the same rhetoric to smoking, drinking, being fat and riding motorcycles?

This may be one of the reasons for the uproar. The CS employees far outnumber the rest of the company, and the in-house customer service was one of the moats B.com had against the competition. To have them suddenly transferred to a third party is shocking.

It’s hard to imagine the same level of service can be provided by call centers tending to multiple brands/products at the same time.

Doh. Typo "Stockholm"...
If the context wasn't WWII then the meeting might have gone very differently. A high level of crisis can tend to focus things a bit. It will, by necessity, bias things towards action when some action is definitively required. At that point the hope is that you stumble upon a moderately effective (or better) course of action and not just one that says, "we have to do something. $X is something, therefore we have to do $X"

In my workplace during the pandemic I have seen this bias towards action play out. New (barely MVP) systems and integrations build in a week that would have been a year to get to the same point normally. A yes, there were a few nonsense "$action must be done" as well, but we managed the crisis too.
> Ardehali cautions that the study’s observational nature comes with some limitations. For example, people in the contemporary control group weren’t tested for COVID-19, so it’s possible that some of them actually had mild infections.

Let’s just say that there are some statistical issues with this study design.

They're discussing the infiltration of pro-Nazi demonstrations, which definitely did happen. COINTELPRO for example devoted 15% of it's resources to targeting White hate groups, leading to things like an FBI agent bombing a Baptist church and murdering a civil rights activist.

I've done some migrations and there's no perfect solution. Currently I'm split between netlify and vercel. The downsides I know for each:

- Netlify doesn't support Range headers which means you can't host clickonce installers for windows apps there

- Vercel doesn't support IPv6 which really is table stakes these days

- S3 + CloudFront are very low-level and the bandwidth is expensive

- CloudFlare supports targeted harassment so dropped for moral reasons

Not Quite.

Your are confusing the current status-quo which is a cumulative development and a standardization for ease of teaching, with the Original Discoverer's process of arriving at his results. They are very different.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Math : In his book, Why Johnny Can't Add: The Failure of the New Math, Morris Kline says that certain advocates of the new topics "ignored completely the fact that mathematics is a cumulative development and that it is practically impossible to learn the newer creations, if one does not know the older ones." Furthermore, noting the trend to abstraction in New Math, Kline says "abstraction is not the first stage, but the last stage, in a mathematical development."

What is being taught today is merely a statement of results and algorithms to mindlessly apply them. Hence the failure of "Mathematical Education" (eg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Mathematician%27s_Lament). By following the Original Discoverer's writings, even if it is outdated (in the light of later discoveries) you understand the What and the Why being explained Organically and Coherently by a single Mind towards one particular set of "Results". This is the crux of "Understanding". Once this is grasped, it becomes easier to follow later developments on the evolution of the same set of "Results" to current-day standards.

That is an inherent difficulty with wind turbines, because the most efficient places for wind tend to be the places of optimal sound broadcast.

Though location wise, one big point would be: "Alongside the motorway? Ok, consistent. // In the middle of paradise? (...Speechless.)"

To place wind turbines where busy infrastructure already is would facilitate energy transport.

To clarify, the "way out" was simply a new filing for an interim order based on the novel fact that a potentially lethal complication had just occurred in connection with the case. I substantiated this with medical and research evidence.

This was a very simple thing for her to grant, and in my view she was required to do so based on constitutional principles.

I would more likely than not have let the previous incident slide. Why she did not take this opportunity I have no idea.

Android requires Location permissions to scan for Bluetooth devices because if you can scan for Bluetooth you can sometimes get the user's location from various online databases, so the permissions would be functionally identical if they were sperate anyway.
Thanks for that. I've played around a little bit.

In all fairness, the faster, better, cheaper argument sounds too much like marketeese to me, and I have not yet seen that effect in real life. You can find dedicated people who are sufficiently good to manage some Linux server infrastructure relatively easily - all while AWS consultancies seem to pop up all over the place like mushrooms after a rain.
Well, it's impossible to prove that no murders were committed for this reason as opposed to any other reason, so you're going to stay unhappy.

But I looked up what individual liberties it curtails, and there's something that may interest you.

The individual liberty curtailed is this: If something's banned, and someone sets up a replacement organisation, then merely being a member is punishable. The prosecution has to prove to a court that the new organisation is a replacement for the banned one, and any factual or dejure leadership may go to prison for up to five years, any other members for up to three.

The bit that will interest you is that this is quite similar to other laws. You don't have to kill anyone to have your liberties curtailed in this manner, mere economic crime will do. If you're convicted of economic crime, that may curtail your liberty to be Geschäftsführer etc.
But that's just an assumption. Many people seem to have pre-existing immunity. A study was done in which unvaccinated, non previously infected volunteers actually lay down in bed for a while with SARS-CoV-2 infected liquid in their noses (eww). So they were unequivocally exposed to a massive dose but only about half got COVID. There is no explanation for this within the bounds of the assumptions made by authorities.

In reality, even if you get Omicron now it's so mild it's unlikely to cause any more heart damage than any other common cold. The danger has passed. Except that, almost everyone decided to massively expose themselves to spike protein over and over. So if spikes cause heart damage and they do, especially when the vaccine gets into the bloodstream, then the vaccines will do more damage than the virus could ever do simply because nobody has pre-existing immunity to it.
Excellent explanation, thanks for sharing!
Please note that this release announcement is from 2017. I'd suggest adding that to the title.

Actually while not preferred, yes altering metadata is possible by either linking tokenUri to off-chain http server or having the ERC-721 token's smart contract's functions modify state and tokenUri returning some base64-encoded dynamic data based on the on-chain state (which I personally implemented and works pretty great).

Though it brings a less-technological yet more philosophical question about NFTs and what they represent being forever the same/frozen, or not, though I don't think it's the discussion for here.
>unlimited bandwidth doesn't really exist.

True, when there is no deliberate cap stated, it's unmetered, not unlimited, meaning you can use what however much fits through the pipes (usually best effort instead of guaranteed bandwidth), and that's the natural limit. A 1 Gbit/s link for example will get you close to 300 TiB in each direction in a 30 day month if you are able to saturate that link 24/7, while a 100MBit/s link will get you a tenth so "only" close to 30TiB.

The Scientific Virtues: Stupidity, Arrogance, Laziness
Ask HN: A non-OCR service to create digital copy of hand written notes?
I am looking for a service where I can send (text ideally) a picture of a page out of my physical notebook and a human will organize and type them for me in Notion, Google Doc, etc. When I search for something like this all I can find is OCR tech or digital note taking solutions. I don't want to use upwork etc. because of the variability in the load. One week I may need 10 pages next I may only need 1.

I know this is an old school problem but I have tried digital note taking and it just doesn't work for me.
