Median will almost always above mean when it comes to life expectancy. But I fully expect median to have dropped almost as much as mean in this case, since the pandemic affected the older adults more, hence it should have shifted/compressed the entire right side of the death frequency over age graph.

Anyway, in terms of measuring overall society, mean is better than median for life expectancy, since it gives effectively more weight to earlier death. Median/mode would be more useful for individual.
>Healthcare systems can only do so much to compensate for a bad lifestyle.

And this right here is my problem. Healthcare doesn't only begin when you get to the doctor or the hospital. There's no reason that healthcare officials/leaders/experts/whatever can't recommend baseline levels of fitness for Americans, and provide help for getting to that standard. I don't know, maybe Healthcare plans should include subsidies for gym memberships by law.

This is wonderful to see.

I often see apologists claim that supporting old products is SO MUCH WORK and companies can't afford the developer time and money to support them, as if supporting an older device requires several full time people to do nothing but constantly pore over source trees in a never ending loop.

Apple did something similar when they had Airport updates for devices going back to the Airport Express from 2008.

Kudos for not cutting people off after three years, like Google does with Android.
Vague embarrassment ten years on when you look at something from 2023 that’s filled with obvious machine-made art, the same way looking at old rave fliers full of MANDELBROTS!!! feels faintly embarrassing.
obesity isn't a crisis of the healthcare system, it's a cultural crisis at a macro level. You don't need 'healthcare advice' as if giving individual people recommendations has any meaningful impact, you need to tackle it a social level. Living designed around movement rather than cars, prices up on high calorie foods, nationwide exercise programs in schools, put a ban on all ads for sugary drinks like Singapore did, etc.
Alternately, you could model it the other way ‘round: mutable tables, like OP has, but with change-data-capture (Debezium et al) attached to them, exporting to the logs-at-rest as a secondary format. Probably easier to pick up / add on, if you’re not already modelling anything else with a CQRS/ES approach. (Though just doing CQRS/ES from the start is always going to get you much cleaner code with many more guarantees that can be made about it.)

"However, whether reinfection adds to the risk incurred after the first infection is not clear."
The thing is even with Kreb's article, and subsequent reports from both sources at Ubiquiti and their partners from current and past employees in prior conversations on HN (can't recall the ex-employees handle but I spoke to an ex-staff member at Ubiqitui on HN a while back, it's in my comment history, found the comments see [1])

Ubiquiti had a part to play in their compromise, their products have demonstrably gotten worse and it was clear from everything that came out in the wash. Ubiquiti's market value has gone down for a multitude of reasons.

Sure, Krebs has a part to play in being socially engineered to push a criminals MO. But Ubiquti's market cap also went down because:

* Ubiquti are huge, and it's clear they don't have a good engineering culture, or have one at all and that had a part to play in their compromise with or without Krebs being a willing participant in it at all

* For a several billion dollar company, they don't have appropriate risk strategies or security controls in place that are expected of a business of their size

* Their products have gotten significantly worse over the years and as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic and supply chain markets, they haven't got product out the door as quickly as prior

The question isn't if they deserved to lose $4B as a consequence of the hack, it's a question of how much of that $4B market loss is because they're not a well ran business as evident by the hack. Vs. how much of that $4B loss was directly because of Krebs? That's a much harder line to define.

Why do so many of these video editing products try to be web-only? A browser/"the cloud" is the last place I want to be if I'm wrangling 400GB prores blobs... I'm surprised the upside of locking their customers into using company hardware (excuse me, "the cloud") outweighs the inevitable shittiness of having to upload massive video files and try to wrangle them in a web browser which inevitably can't handle high-quality video.
The use cases he cites are corner cases, as others have argued.

In my mind, a far more common use case calls for memory pools, where memory can be allocated and not explicitly tracked by the application. The memory pool gets freed at the end of some unit of computation. This interface is already nicely supplied by an Apache memory pool library.

I think the post you were replying to was agreeing with you. "I don't see how they aren't comparable", i.e. they are comparable.
Kinda yes.

To start, why Taiwan exists?

Its roots are related to how China became a republic in first place, when the Emperor was booted from power, China quickly became the land of warlordism, with generals treating their subordinates as personal army, and each warlord promoting a different ideology.

Although officially in history books people separate the period as many smaller civil wars, the fact is that China is having a single civil war that started back when the monarchy ended.

Taiwan itself originated when one of the groups in the civil war (The right Kuomingtang, beacuse by the way, the "Left Kuomingtang" is a thing and one of the few legal parties in China) was losing the war on mainland China, and had a golden opportunity in Taiwan:

Taiwan had been conquered some time before by Japan, and after WW2 ended, it was returned to China, the governor of Taiwan was very corrupt and ended pissing off the population that rioted, so Kuomingtang sent soldiers there to massacre the rioters (alongside a lot of random people). After a while they ended just sending everyone over and basically conquering the island by force.

So in a way, communist party "won" the civil war, they had almost the entirety of Mainland China, and started their communist dictatorship.

Meanwhile, Kuomingtang as they arrived on Taiwan, concluded the Taiwanese were too "japanified" and weren't "chinese enough", and decided that the right thing to do is murder people and terrorize them until they become Chinese, similar to what Mao was doing to "not communist enough" people. People call this period of time the "white terror"

So currently there are three positions about this:

1. Mainland government and a lot of people living there, support the idea Communist party must finish winning the civil war and erase Kuomingtang from the face of the earth, and take Taiwan.

2. Kuomingtang still exists, and their supporters among Taiwan's population believe they should prepare and then fight back, and win the civil war, wipe communist party out of the face of the earth, and re-take mainland China.

3. A variety of people, including a lot of native Taiwanese and pro-japan Taiwanese, want Taiwan to be a real country, that is not China, those that are more dictatorial in views want both the Communist party and the Kuomingtang gone.

Views 1 and 2 are both called "one china policy" and is how you manage to have strategic ambiguity. View 3 is what communist party is accusing Pelosi of spousing.

As for Taiwan current views: officially the government mostly claims there is one China, to avoid resuming the hot war. But pro-independence parties been making gains in elections. It might be just a matter of time until someone officially declares independence and the temporary (even if long lasting) truce ends.

I know a little some Taiwanese people, and can say they have a variety of views, one of the most obvious ones is a guy making indie games that put flag of Taiwan on his games splash screen with the phrase: "If you are not in favor of Taiwan independence you aren't human, and fuck Kuomingtang". I won't say name of games don't ask.
Yes I think it's broad too but your reply is helpful. Thank you.

Is anybody worried about the security of a Python linter?

Did anybody have even a hint of doubt that a compiled linter would be at least tens of times faster than one in Python? (Either Python has got faster in recent years, or it really ought to have been hundreds. Or maybe the others rely on compiled libraries for their own heavy lifting.)

The sentence you’ve quoted, from the abstract of the paper, refers to the state of knowledge before this paper was written/published.

The results section of the paper updates this knowledge. It says:

“Compared to those with first infection, those with reinfection exhibited increased risk and excess burden of all-cause mortality, hospitalization, and at least one sequela in the acute phase and the post-acute phase of the reinfection.”

“… the risk was higher in those who had two infections (HR 2.11 (2.07, 2.15); burden 234.58 (227.08, 241.92)), and highest in those with three or more infections (HR 3.00 (2.71, 3.31) …”

Look, it makes sense to diversify that's fine. That isn't what I'm poo-pooing at all. It's fine to spend some of your time and money on random side projects. The problem is priorities.

Anyhow, if it helps, the problem I'm really ranting about isn't the move to mobile but the latter part of the comment, which is the chasing of hype. People are so intoxicated with free market ideology that they really believe every move a company makes is really some invisible hand wisdom and they forget businesses are groups of people, that is human people. They underestimate how many moves are really just what I said, some people in management chasing hype. And chasing hype or better diversifying is fine and wise, it just needs to be done within scale to the threat currently faced and the resources at hand.

Dropbox is a one-trick pony so they are right to be worried. Sony is literally one of the biggest most diversified technology companies in the world. It probably is wise to have some presence in mobile if they really have none (although I doubt the article), but if you just read gaming media like the OP you think it some crime or deadly threat to Sony for it not to be a leading mobile IP owner yesterday. It's just the language is out of scale of the actual risk to Sony, and language of a media piece might not matter, you bet your socks some 24 year old fresh MBA somewhere in Sony USA is going to read this then start flinging slide decks to management about how they need to start dropping half a million on some mobile start up that is barely alive or something.
Even if a way to decompose plastic is found I think we'd still need to gather it so we can process it. People are dumping plastic everywhere at this point and it's really hard to make people's habits to change.
It's just a different audience. Mobile gaming is huge in places like India where phones are more available than desktops or consoles.
A lot of libraries are published along with various types of bundles and non-bundles, including usually the source, so the user can pick which one is best for them. For example, you can import just one Lodash module at a time so you don't have to bloat your app with the whole library. This seems like the best of both worlds

We're converging on better norms for JS dialects/module systems, but we're not all the way there yet, so I don't see much purpose dropping support for multiple formats when some people might still need some of them

Great resource. Thank you so much.

How much price difference are we talking about here between the two approaches?
your assumption was correct..genuinely curious and it's interesting to see how polarizing the topic is in every sphere, especially one such as this which is more than full of critical thinkers
The entire reason they are mostly focusing on getting DDoS protection services to drop KF, is it's seen as the most promising approach to kick the website offline. Most other things you need to be on the Internet are either already utilities, or are reasonably possible to maintain yourself or find one provider among thousands. DDoS protection is not like that, you need an unreasonable amount of equipment and money to do it.

If CloudFlare folds, either the website will get knocked to DDoS, or it will find another of the few remaining DDoS protection services, which will be also invariably pressured to drop them, and as smaller players they will have an even greater incentive to fold to avoid a PR disaster. Repeat until they run out of DDoS protection services willing to protect them.

But, as far as I can tell both the owner of KF and its associated companies are located in the US and what they do is technically legal (they've not been convicted as far as I know). So, if they are unable to get on the Internet, that'd make a fantastic argument for regulation of DDoS protection services, which I guess is what CloudFlare is trying to avoid here.
Or you end up like Nintendo, who isn't going anywhere any time soon.

The problem for Kodak and Dropbox is that they made easily replicated products; whereas every great video game is unique in its own right.

In any head-to-head competitive sport higher win rates (wr%) do not translate to specific wins, obviously why underdog or upsets happen.

Play style matching matters.

Separately, in video games definitely the concept of winrate stacking/smurfing. Definitely not at the olympic level, but wr% does not necessarily mean a specific win.
Even if the other methods prevented MiTM attack, it is still DoS attack (as the expected service is not available).
What the Olympics is about has always been subject to debate. The tension between its modernist ideals and realpolitik was present at the start, with individualist and postmodern criticisms joining the chat later. It’s hard to imagine some starting a similar institution today, but it seems at least somewhat effective at its goal of world peace, if only by giving nations an easy, institutionalized way to gain prestige without going to war.

Better to know for certain (up to confidence and security in the encryption/authentication and key management scheme(s)) than to have faith in the unknown processes and systems of a third party.

Yep, I don't watch it anymore because it's not a game between human beings anymore.

You may not be aware of just how much money the mobile market is worth. Nintendo's entire annual revenue for recent years is around 12-15 billion. The single mobile game Genshin Impact made 2 billion in one year. Tencent, which owns a lot of mobile games, has an annual revenue of around 30 billion. Also remember that this is revenue, not profit.
