Page 5 of the data from Walgreens gives an explanation:

"All results, including the positivity rates by vaccination status graph, are unadjusted. The team has observed that the positivity rates among unvaccinated individuals seen on the bar graph appear to be lower in comparison to vaccinated individuals. Furthermore, repeat testing among those who were previously positive in the last 90 days appear to confound the results. The team conducted additional analyses examining characteristics of the patient population by vaccination status and the impact of excluding recent COVID-19 cases (5.0% of total tests). Findings show that the unvaccinated group are typically younger and healthier, less symptomatic and less likely to report direct COVID-19 exposure or recent travel compared to vaccinated groups. Controlling for recent COVID-19 cases, results show that the unvaccinated group has a 17.1% higher positivity rate compared to the 3-dose group. Controlling for additional factors leads to a larger difference between groups."

So basically, if you take out the negative repeat tests that were associated with a previous positive test, the phenomenon that this entire Substack post is based on disappears.

I’m surprised this wasn’t flagged as something pretty silly.
I ran OpenSolaris on my laptop back in the day; I thought it worked very well. Note I'm not some old-style Unix greybeard who used Solaris back in the 80s: I was just playing around with various systems and ended up sticking with OpenSolaris.

To be fair, from my casual observations it didn't seem there was that much inertia around the system, and Oracle killed OpenSolaris before I had a chance to put it on any servers, but I definitely think there was some potential there.
I think one of the reasons for vinyl’s reputation is that it’s often played on old sound systems. Ones with real bass and treble controls!
I haven't heard of S7 before—it looks like a great project as well. Thanks!
I should have gone into more detail for sure.

The problems with the JVM are more cultural or political and not necessarily technical, although at the time clojure on the jvm did require quite a bit of memory and the cold startup times weren’t great for a simple, “watch this file in development and restart the server” workflow.
I don't live in US and never have, but I now work there remotely.
It is more like 30x.
That's still the wrong syntax.
Hmm, wasn't getting at that aspect, not yet anyway.

Rather, I'm looking for information on what languages/libraries are required, setting up a build environment, getting familiar with the GUI libraries, etc. Where are the config files? Glibs? I think that's a thing. Dbus? Styling has completely changed a few times, for example. Basically an up-to-date tutorial. I used to do GUI programming about twenty+ years ago, so wouldn't be a complete newbie.

Once done with that, I'll think about focusing on the maintenance or greenfield work I'd like to do.
The board has declared the price offered to be too low. You say it's high enough, but I doubt you own as much stock as the people on the board.
They’re attempting to do just that. This tax would be paid by the consumer, just as state sales taxes are. However companies must keep track of the relevant taxes for each consumer, charge them appropriately, and remit that to the appropriate government. It gets complicated real fast.
There is that deep problem that there are three ways to represent inheritance relationships in SQL and they are all flawed.

Other than that though my feeling is that ORM implementations have improved dramatically in all languages if only because of hard experience. I don't think it is like the Vietnam war anymore.

You get in trouble with ORM if you thing that "object is greater than relational" not because one is better than the other but because when relational is persistent and object is transitory, relational is the "real" thing and the objects are an abstraction of the real thing.

Jooq turns it around by being a "relational-object mapper" that lets you write relational queries in a Java DSL that plays really well with the autocomplete features of your IDE. I think it compares favorably to what Microsoft tried to do with LINQ.
Use the ellipse selection tool while holding down Shift (uses fixed 1:1 aspect ratio) to select a circle, then fill or stroke selection via the Edit menu.
That’s how I read it too. According to the founder of Franz Inc. in OP, the language was “so named to induce feelings of false familiarity stemming from a wide awareness of composer Franz Liszt”.
Ok, longer descriptions from the tools' man pages:

---

chronic runs a command, and arranges for its standard out and standard error to only be displayed if the command fails
(exits nonzero or crashes). If the command succeeds, any extraneous output will be hidden.

A common use for chronic is for running a cron job. Rather than trying to keep the command quiet, and having to deal with
mails containing accidental output when it succeeds, and not verbose enough output when it fails, you can just run it
verbosely always, and use chronic to hide the successful output.

---

combine combines the lines in two files. Depending on the boolean operation specified, the contents will be combined in
different ways:

and Outputs lines that are in file1 if they are also present in file2.

not Outputs lines that are in file1 but not in file2.

or Outputs lines that are in file1 or file2.

xor Outputs lines that are in either file1 or file2, but not in both files.

The input files need not be sorted

---

ifdata can be used to check for the existence of a network interface, or to get information about the interface, such as
its IP address. Unlike ifconfig or ip, ifdata has simple to parse output that is designed to be easily used by a shell
script.

---

lckdo: Now that util-linux contains a similar command named flock, lckdo is deprecated, and will be removed from some future
version of moreutils.

---

mispipe:
mispipe pipes two commands together like the shell does, but unlike piping in the shell, which returns the exit status of
the last command; when using mispipe, the exit status of the first command is returned.

Note that some shells, notably bash, do offer a pipefail option, however, that option does not behave the same since it
makes a failure of any command in the pipeline be returned, not just the exit status of the first.

---

pee:
[my own description: `pee cmd1 cmd2 cmd3` takes the data from the standard input, sends copies of it to the commands cmd1, cmd2, and cmd3 (as their stdin), aggregates their outputs and provides that at the standard output.]

---

sponge, ts and vipe have been described in other comments in this thread. (And I've also skipped some easier-to-understand ones like errno and isutf8 for the sake of length.)

---

zrun:
Prefixing a shell command with "zrun" causes any compressed files that are arguments of the command to be transparently
uncompressed to temp files (not pipes) and the uncompressed files fed to the command.

The following compression types are supported: gz bz2 Z xz lzma lzo

[One super cool thing the man page mentions is that if you create a link named z<programname> eg. zsed, with zrun as the link target, then when you run `zsed XYZ`, zrun will read its own program name, and execute 'zrun sed XYZ' automatically.]

"Just don't use windows" is not a solution. Ameliorated works, whether you believe in security whataboutism or not.
That’s not an exit code; that is a fake exit code which your shell made up, since your shell has no other way to tell you that a process did not exit at all, but was killed by a signal (9, i.e. SIGKILL). This is, again, not an actual exit code, since the process did not actually exit.

See here for why you can’t use an exit status of 128+signal to fake a “killed by signal” state, either:

The KLF were just ahead of their time. Now they could launch a DAO and everyone could own a share of the burnt wonga and they could sell NFTs of it and open a fast-food chain where everyone can pay with burnt twenty quid notes.
The "Quantum threshold theorem" is what you care about here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_threshold_theorem

Basically, if the error rate on an individual gate is low enough, you can use the gate to construct larger (less efficient) gates with arbitrarily low amounts of error. 99%, as you say, is a bit low and you'd need impractically large circuits to use these gates.

You want error correction with classical computers too, it just works differently.
There are places that just have way fewer stop signs. Seattle has a lot of local residential street intersections with no stop signs (or yield signs either). When I was living in Munich, same deal.
Both are advertised as being effective against high elevation threats, both Trophy and Iron Fist have been tested against missiles launched from helicopters when during their acceptance testing by the Israelis.

Trophy has a +- 38 degrees of elevation firing, Iron Fist can do -40-+60.

At least against something like an NLAW that flys above the tank both would have a firing solution.

The US when evaluating the system for both the Bradley and the Abrams tested it against the Javelin and other modern anti tank threats.

As far as non-western weapon go Trophy has intercepted fairly modern ATGMs like the Russian Kornet-E and it’s licensed Iranian clones which also employ a top-attack attack profile.

> There are many mentally deranged people who have published papers and are "scientists".

That's true, but it could be interpreted as a distraction from the fact that you haven't provided any evidence to support your claim.

In my experience, few mentally deranged people have a good understanding of physics. Even fewer have published in 'Nature'.

The Economist wears its prejudice on its sleeve and acknowledges them.

It was literally founded as a propaganda organ for the liberals in England. In opposition to the "Corn Laws"

It is also "where the Queen goes, go we". So if England (not Britain, England) declares war they are in, boots and all. They cheer lead the Iraqi debacle then years later talked of "those mistaken supporteds of the Iraqi invasion including this magazine".

It is what I like about them. Most media does not admit it bias, the Economist admits it every day.

"FROM A CYNICAL European perspective, Viktor Orban’s election triumphs are like covid-19 wave" it says. Because it has always been anti Orban. Always called on the Hungarian voters to rejected him.

I disagree with many of their priors (I find the emphasis on individual rights as opposed to collective rights unbalanced. Collective rights exist an often conflict with individual rights and I put the balance in a different place) But I have huge respect for the honesty.

You can label it "propaganda". It is not incorrect. But it is unsubtle and very honest.

Compare that to Fox News or the Guardian both of which do not recognise that their views are prejudice at all.

Many other countries get by with far fewer stop signs and have far fewer traffic fatalities. Not sure if there's a causative relationship there, but it doesn't seem to be hurting.
I agree with the part of RDBMS.

As for your suggestion about ODMantic, I was actually planning to use an ORM at the begging, but I couldn't find a stable one with asynchronous features. So, I decided to use motor for now. ODMantic may be worth studying.
Absolutely! Why on earth would you test a dumb way of doing things on a user-facing service?! slams hand on desk Irrelevant!
The downvoting here is the equivalent of getting shamed for “asking a stupid question at work.”

Yes I should have done a bit more homework but shaming for asking a clarifying question is unreasonable. Those of you who have the downvote trigger-finger can and should do better.

I mostly rely on fzf for stuff like this nowadays.
You can replace vipe with fzf —multi for example and get non-inverted behavior with fuzzy search.

More to it, not in a pipe (because of poor ^C behavior), but using a hokey in zsh to bring up git branch | fzf, select any number of branches I need and put them on command line, this is extremely composable.

It's been a very long time since this happened, but in my early days of using Linux, I experienced naming collisions with both sponge and parallel, and at the time I didn't know how to resolve them. I don't remember which other sponge there was, but I imagine most Linux users are familiar with GNU parallel at this point.

According to your logic, any offer to go private above market value must be accepted. That's not the case. Stockholders might be interested in owning Twitter stock for a long time. Elon's offer might not make financial sense for them.
>> The goal in the US Constitution is to prevent the government from abridging people's right to free speech

Preventing the government from abridging people's right to free speech is the strategy, not the goal. Preventing large corporations from dictating what political views can effectively be expressed is another strategy towards the same goal.
Right. You should always test the command first. If the data is critical, use a temporary file instead. I usually use this in scripts so I don’t have to deal with cleanup.
I think anyone on this thread who hasn't already, needs to go read Antony Sutton's Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler.

"PREFACE

This is the third and final volume of a trilogy describing the role of the American corporate
socialists, otherwise known as the Wall Street financial elite or the Eastern Liberal
Establishment, in three significant twentieth-century historical events: the 1917 Lenin-
Trotsky Revolution in Russia, the 1933 election of Franklin D. Roosevelt in the United
States, and the 1933 seizure of power by Adolf Hitler in Germany.
Each of these events introduced some variant of socialism into a major country — i.e.,
Bolshevik socialism in Russia, New Deal socialism in the United States, and National
socialism in Germany.
Contemporary academic histories, with perhaps the sole exception of Carroll Quigley's
Tragedy And Hope, ignore this evidence. On the other hand, it is understandable that
universities and research organizations, dependent on financial aid from foundations that are
controlled by this same New York financial elite, would hardly want to support and to
publish research on these aspects of international politics. The bravest of trustees is unlikely
to bite the hand that feeds his organization.
It is also eminently clear from the evidence in this trilogy that "public-spirited businessmen"
do not journey to Washington as lobbyists and administrators in order to serve the United
States. They are in Washington to serve their own profit-maximizing interests. Their
purpose is not to further a competitive, free-market economy, but to manipulate a
politicized regime, call it what you will, to their own advantage.
It is business manipulation of Hitler's accession to power in March 1933 that is the topic of
Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler.

Education tech – how to fund?
We built an AI tool to help graduate students learn and professors teach.

Profs at two universities keep reusing it and it surveys well with students.

I can't figure out how to get a school to pay for it. Admins dismiss it as a toy. The profs say they would pay, but that there isn't a budget. Students don't get a vote.

The application could be massively improved, and is already helping students learn important topics.

How do I figure out how to pay for development?
Guaranteed profit at the point in time is great for speculators. If you're doing long term investment, realizing profit at random point in time, isn't really that attractive.
On particularly boring work days, I give myself like an hour to play some intense video games, and then just start with a small task again that you'll feel good about getting done. Instead of trying to jmcut out time sinks, just make them more deliberate. Rather than blowing it on mindless Twitter that isn't actually all that stimulating, spend it doing something else that you want to do for a while, and find a way to hard cap that so you can get back to the task. Also drugs.
If you found out about such a ring and got visibility into what they were doing, and used what you discovered to profit at their expense (without doing any of your own manipulations, i.e. just buying and selling), would you be in trouble?
This is the same line of thinking as "someone should set up an alternate social network where users don't get banned". Except that 99.9% of bans at Facebook, Twitter and the like are completely justified, and so that's what the dominant content on your new platform will be.
People still moving to lower cost areas, so houses in those areas likely to not change much until inventory improves imo.
Fair amount of irony in the exhange at the end. Twitter needs to be privately owned, so it can help usher in an age of cryptocurrency when everyone can own a piece of everything...
Wow. What a great example. Thank you!
It's incredibly difficult to get people without anxiety to fully appreciate just how debilitating and "costly" it can be for a person and I suspect the damages awarded reflect the public/jury's lack of understanding and empathy.
I am not aware of a TV that requires internet access to show a picture, but I haven't looked in a long time. I don't think a TV will try to hack nearby networks, but it is possible that it strongly suggests you to connect to the internet, for example by showing nag screens, locking out essential features, or fixing breaking bugs that should never have been allowed to ship.

What I meant that you can buy a smart TV and take advantage of the lower prices but you should make sure that you can actually use the TV without a network connection (and yes, that it doesn't try to hack your wifi).
So just today I was wondering if there was a cli tool (or maybe a clever use of existing tools...) that could watch the output of one command for a certain string, parse bits of that out, and then execute another command with that parsed bit as input. For example, I have a command I run that spits out a log line with a url on it, I need to usually manually copy out that url and then paste it as an arg to my other command. There are other times when I simply want to wait for something to start up (you'll usually get a line like "Dev server started on port 8080") and then execute another command.

I know that I could obviously grep the output of the first command, and then use sed or awk to manipulate the line I want to get just the url, but I'm not sure about the best way to go about the rest. In addition, I usually want to see all the output of the first command (in this case, it's not done executing, it continues to run after printing out the url), so maybe there's a way to do that with tee? But I usually ALSO don't want to intermix 2 commands in the same shell, i.e. I don't want to just have a big series of pipes, Ideally I could run the 2 commands separately in their own terminals but the 2nd command that needs the url would effectively block until it received the url output from the first command. I have a feeling maybe you could do this with named pipes or something but that's pretty far out of my league...would love to hear if this is something other folks have done or have a need for.
Most ECS implementations realistically are high-performance in-memory columnar databases, where systems use granular mutation patterns. Hell, the main access pattern is literally a called a Query. It's become quite a meme to call bevy_ecs "turning games into SQL databases". If you've used BigQuery or Redshift, you've basically just used a super-scaled up ECS engine.

Not for Twitter's board. They want more, and good for them. In the history of hostile acquisitions, the first offer is never the final one.
I swear there's something in the water. This entire thread has a ton of nastiness/bitterness in it.
That is a helpful summary - thanks!
people will immediately reverse engineer it to find what criteria give tweets the most engagement. if it's something like "joke tweet at 7 am" then millions of people will do whatever that is. Not to mention it will open it up to spammers, scammers and software hackers.

There may be common sense solutions to mitigate those problems. but I haven't heard them from Musk

> “watch this file in development and restart the server” workflow

Fortunately, no one in the Clojure ecosystem works like that, thanks to the REPL :) You fire up the server, send code straight from the editor to the server and evaluate everything on the fly, no restarts needed.
The problem with Nim is that it doesn't follow the Zen of Python (nor does Python anymore but Python doesn't need to compete as a new language).

Basically, it's just too complicated and all over the place.
This is exactly what I experienced too, the tidy clojure ecosystem can come undone pretty quickly
Thanks for all the links! This is certainly helping me get a feel.
