That's probably accurate-enough for the current case under discussion, but HIPAA absolutely does apply to law enforcement. Indeed, it specifically addresses disclosures to law enforcement about victim information in the regulation. 45 CFR § 164.512(f)(3).

Notably, these provisions require law enforcement to do certain things in order to receive some PHI. For example, under some circumstances, law enforcement must represent that they do not intend to use the PHI against the victim.

If they do so under false pretenses, fully intending to disclose that information to (for example) another detective working on a burglary case, they are guilty of a 5-year, $100,000 felony. 42 U.S.C. § 1320-d.

Again, for the current case, in which it appears the complaining witness provided the sample directly to law enforcement, your comment is true enough. However, it is misinformation to say that HIPAA does not apply to law enforcement or require them to handle data a certain way.
> but in fact to succeed in those spaces needs very hard work.

But that doesn't make it a job. You could do hard work in moving a mountain but that's not a job.

Needless to say, earning money off of your looks (something you didn't work hard to gain in the first place) doesn't qualify as hard-working job.
I’m not so sure about that. My mom posts on Facebook and gets a few likes with pictures of Jesus with text in them, and my wife posts every day with political hot takes, literally just text posts and gets hundreds of likes on virtually every post she makes with tons of comments and engagement.

My high school peers post pictures of their kids all the time. I like their pictures and they like mine. My grandparents all like my posts too, except grandpa who told me not to curse on Facebook so I blocked her. I’ll curse on Facebook if I want, damn it!

Edit: You know, I haven’t even posted this but just to verify I went to Facebook and… 90% was suggested pages and barely any of my friends posts. I swear it wasn’t like this yesterday. Did someone push an algorithm change and screw everything up in prod for Facebook?

I’ve witnessed the same. In addition, I’ve recently seen Facebook recommend posts that were outright racist and anti-Semitic. I tried reporting them to Facebook, but they weren’t removed since they didn’t call for violence.

One would think that a company that’s been under heavy scrutiny regarding its role in the growing political polarization of America with its negative social effects would make a better effort with its News Feed. It’s one thing to have a lenient policy regarding what people can post, but it’s another thing when I’m being recommended posts that encourage hatred and wild conspiracy theories that flirt with sedition.
The monsters only attack after their land is polluted:

But if they had started with a proprietary license, it's likely Akka wouldn't even exist today. So they are now piggybacking on the success brought by using an open source license.
This is such a privileged take. We stole proms, graduations, first dates, first days of school, friendships, relationships, social interaction, you name it… we stole it from our kids.

Maybe rich tech workers had it easier or are living in denial but the fact is what we did to the young is completely disgusting and it is shameful how quick some people are to dismiss it. What we did to kids was state sponsored child abuse. We absolutely fucked over their one and only childhood for a disease whose median age of death is higher than the average life expectancy for a normal person. The number of young ones who got seriously ill from Covid is a drop in the bucket.

Complete bollocks.
I worked for a network storage company that originally wanted to call themselves "Arraid" but discovered a small company already using that name, making replacement flash-based disk/floppy/tape drives for old mainframes and minis. Looks like they're still around in case you need something for your PDP-11!

I've heard the same, Meta for sure, and a few folks at Goog have told me as well they are coming. For google this will be the first time they have ever done layoffs in the company history(2009 had 200 folks leave so not really layoffs so to speak) so that tells you the scale of this tech downturn.
If you can compile code at runtime, then how are you not able to use macros at runtime via the same facility? Macros are just functions that operate on the data structures that define function calls prior to those calls being executed, symbols resolved , etc. So if you’re compiling new code at runtime via eval the that code will go through the same process, including macro expansion.
As a person working on big C++ telco codebases for a living, I'm fully aware that C++ is solving real problems and that -Weverything makes it somewhat possible to work with the language. At the same time, I'm appalled by the negative consequences of the "let's fix problems with the old and broken comparison operator by introducing a new, better comparison operator, since we need to maintain almost complete backwards compatibility" approach that C++ takes here.

I'm interested in solving real problems, but C++ deserves trash talking for this reason alone.
Yes I tend to agree, especially to your point about the long term effects.

How do you envision "dealing with Russia through force" going down just curiously?

I would imagine there is a similar point of view in many Russians regarding the West (and they can make arguments about abuses and how intrinsically evil the other party is and patriotic jingles and all that too).

So how, on that road, does this end?

I think we know the answer and it really and truly is awful and the end of the world we have previously known.
Typo in the title as well - although I like the idea that a programmer in the future will search for a contemporary feature called a 'compiler frond' and happen upon this discussion.
In fact the opposite ... one of the reason's Deere is popular IS there service coverage. In fact it is worth a premium.
Technically isolation is for the infected and quarantine is for the healthy.

I think quarantine orders were largely followed in major cities where the risks of a run away outbreak was worse. The goal was only secondarily to reduce deaths but primarily to protect the acute medical care system from collapse under a major outbreak. “Flatten the curve” didn’t mean end the local epidemics but to reduce the rate of infection to make the rate of people needing acute medical care lower than the rate the hospital systems able to service patients. Except for a few cases we succeeded. Death is a much more exciting metric to count, but it was never our objective in the public health response. Death was mitigated with the vaccine, and secondarily by the public health orders. (Note outside of China I don’t think there has been any actual lockdown or quarantines despite people abusing that word. Advice to stay home and business closure is not a lockdown. A lockdown means you’re forcibly restricted.)

Also - asking people to wear a mask caused hysterical backlash. Can you imagine if we had set up concentration camps for the elderly?
Meanwhile China kept pumping CFCs out all that time.

I've done a similar architecture as well a couple of times. Both setups use multiple haproxy instances (auto-scaling group), multiple backend app servers, and each haproxy server has a local nginx instance.

Nginx is used for serving some static error pages that live outside of the backend applications haproxy talks to (eg: "Customer domain not recognized"). There's some hacks to kind of make this work in haproxy but it's much simpler with an actual HTTP content server.

Nginx also works well as a caching proxy, and what's really cool with haproxy is it's easy to have most requests go directly to the application server (avoiding an unnecessary proxy hop), but just pattern match certain types -- eg regex match `.jpg$` -- to go through the nginx cache.

I've also used a similar technique to have per-domain custom images overriding specific URL paths (eg `/logo.png`), which was a really quick way to allow some customization of a multi-tenant application without having to make major code modifications to support it (only used for a tiny handful of customers).
Then why is it in law?

Your defense does not come across how you think it does, particularly because it's inherently absurd and devoid of reason.

"You there! Crop! Stop sharing genes! Stop adapting to your environment! This piece of paper says you can't!"

The idea that you can loose a reproducing organism on the world and then sue people when that organism does what reproducing organisms do is just... stop and listen to yourself. You're spouting nonsense syllables that resemble speech.

By comparison, Instagram - the other part of Facebook - still puts a "no new posts" item in the feed, so there's a clear indicator that you can put Instagram away and you won't miss out on anything.

However, Facebook has been slowly chipping away at it, by putting suggested posts afterwards (instead of accounts you actually follow) so if you're not paying attention, you'll still get ads / engagement. I expect the "no new posts" indicator will be made smaller and smaller, and eventually disappear.

> obnoxious about what?

Vaguely descriptive attacks that serve no purpose other than religious wars. When I see statements like that I see another person who thinks it’s simply fashionable to hate popular languages because they heard someone like Torvalds, Thompson, or Stallman say it. If you have a fundamental explanation like they do, then it's at least reasonable, disregarding the irrelevant context of a Linux kernel forum thread. But I rarely see that, instead I find mutter like "cpp is bloated, unstable, overcomplicated crap with ugly syntax, that's why I use rust, or nim, or any other pretty new thing that was conceived 35+ years later".

For instance:

Okay, how so, anything about C++ or just C in general?

Exactly and there you go. If you don't like it then you're free to move to another country that has a brilliant republic.

Must be going just fine in the greatest republic on the planet; The United States of America.
Russia and Ukraine are historically and culturally European. Russian expansion deep into Siberia is a relatively recent phenomenon. Sure, they're not Western European, but that's not what you said in your original comment.
Kid Friendly and played by kids is almost two different concepts.

I've a strong feeling it's due to wanting to return to our childhoods, when life had a lot less pressures.
I am holding both to same standard. Russian invasion is of course terrible, and it in fact undermined Russia's own goal of keeping Ukraine neutral, at the very least.

But I think everybody here agrees with that, so what's the point of stressing it? You think Putin listens to my opinion?

Yes, and the West should be careful with military intervention, and consider whether it won't lead to more escalation and more death.

In fact, I think the EU could do more with economic sanctions. AFAIK we still buy oil from Russia.

You'd be surprised how much efficiency an engineering team can squeeze out of their games with time and motivation. A lot of bloat happens just to get the game out the door and is then good enough.

While I didn't work on the port itself, the effort that went into the Doom Eternal switch port paid off pretty well.

I'm hopeful that working with Nintendo would provide the time, money, and expertise needed to put the effort into making this a solid port.
I didn't have c# exp and it took me a month to feel "productive comfort", and less than 2 months until i felt "native comfort". I've been using it for about 2 years now.

That said I:

• had zero C# experience and it was the C# interop that caused me the most pain. Its easy now but I didn't grok how to properly pass arguments to overloaded C# methods (i kept messing up parenthesis, commas, and didn't pass argument names to tell f# the right function signature)

• have been coding for 8 years

• have functional lang experience with elixir and elm.

Now f# is my primary backend language.
I feel you on that, but in these moments I remember a quote from Steve Jobs: "You can't connect the points forward, you can only connect them backwards".

Which for me means that you don't yet know what advantage these 'wasted' years could give you in the future. Just trust yourself to make the best decisions you can given the circumstances and you'll get to where you want in as little time as you can.
You just moved the goalpost from "European" to "Western European", excluding Eastern Europeans because they're inconvenient to your point.

> It’s not my job to prove masks work, lockdowns work, or vaccines work.

Can you stay on topic? This subthread is about a simple discussion. Do COVID19 tests detect the flu?

The answer is no.

Now if you wish to move your goalposts. Feel free to do so. But don't expect me to condone or accept your obvious fallacy. If you're changing the subject so intensely, I more or less take it as a discussion win in my favor at this point.

I think I've readily proven that your earlier discussion point has no data behind it. And I have no reason to believe you have data behind any of the other discussion points you're bringing up.

EDIT: Now if you start posting some data, maybe I'll start to listen again. But I'm not going to take or respect just wanton assertions in this subthread.
Tangentially, kudos to them for listing out past team members on the about-us page. I've never seen anyone do that before.
Not a single developer. The game itself is a product of a Factorio factory, the developer simply drags belts around and flips logic switches to produce new features. The automation has reached a point where it has developed Copilot-like AI skills and very little needs to be done by hand now.
I don't believe this assessment comes from a professional Clojurist. Emacs is common but not necessary -- you can easily reach for Calva in Visual Studio Code. Leiningen provides a tested and very accessible build environment. But I prefer the Cognitect tools deps toolchain instead, which does have a larger learning curve. Again, the developer can choose. The author and many in the comments decry JSON parsing pain in Scala. JSON is handled elegantly in Clojure -- while Jackson (neatly wrapped by Cheshire) has its occasional CVEs to wrangle, you can instead employ clojure.data.json which is performant and free of Java transitive dependency bloat and CVE surface. The transitive dependency hell mentioned in the article seems to be exacerbated by Scala tooling, though Java inter-dependencies can be complex and difficult to manage in any JVM language. I have found Clojure's tools deps toolchain to give the most elegant dependency management experience I have experienced on the JVM.
My goal with the transpiler is not only the transpiler, although my front end had to be created differently of an normal compiler and preserve more tokens that could be discarded during the compilation. This also can be useful for a tool that does refactoring.. like renaming variables etc.. so in any case it it useful.

The new C23 language has a lot of features that makes your code not compile in previous C versions like attributes digit separators etc.. Someone may wants to create a new project in C23 and soon regret because the users of the code may need C99. This would be one use case, you can create a C23 code and have C99 versions of the same base code.

Unfortunately my transpiler is not "production ready" yet and I don't have IDE plugins etc.. that is required to make the tool more productive.

The other advantage, if we had a production ready transpiler with a IDE support etc.. it that we could use C23 and compile to C99 without having to wait for compilers like msvc to implements the standards.

Also some experimental features (like defer) can be used and you can distribute your code in standard C99. We have more freedom to use wherever we want and distribute a "readable" C99 code.

By the way most of the C transpilers or compilers generates C code only for immediate compilation. CFront was like that.

My transpiler have two modes one is for direct compilation and other is to distribute generated code.

Each mode has advantages and disadvantages.
Interesting, I'm using Grafana Cloud for just a few Prometheus metrics at the moment and have found it reasonable so far so am interested in what scale up looks like.

I'm curious—what other sorts of services are you referring to in your comparison?
I think somewhere in the middle is a good place to start. This can be managed by limiting the scope of code a "language newbie" writes (until they get reasonably up-to-speed) -- if/when that is possible. It also helps if you have someone experienced in the language who can help point them in the right direction when they need help. That can be a challenging thing to do well. Deciding where to provide direction, and where to just let them figure stuff out on their own can be difficult. You can come off as being too picky, or just being a jerk when you were just sincerely trying to help. I think to do it well you have to be vigilant about keeping your own ego in check. It has been my experience that most people who are fairly good at something (present company included) can slip into the state of "thinking more highly of themselves than they should". That's always counter-productive, and in my experience good "mentors" (or whatever you want to call them) are the one's who excel at avoiding it.
> There is no tipping point. The premise of a tipping point means you're still thinking about category instead of degree.

Quite the opposite. I've asked about degree the entire time. "Opinion" does not mean the same thing as "Propaganda," but the scale of the former could transform it into the latter.

What's the degree here? That's what I'm asking.

> That's a boring discussion.

This is dismissive. If you want to discuss things in good faith, please avoid language like this. You're refusing to engage with an aspect of my reply - and that's fine - but don't pretend my thought are meaningless or boring as a response.
You don’t consider other negative long term outcomes like long COVID to be a broad concern?
I've read this here before, but will regurgitate it.

It's amazing that many software products still use the disc icon to represent saving. Many folks using computers now have never even seen one in person. To them it's the save icon, not a disc.
You can’t prove that what we did to children saved millions and millions of lives.

Frame your argument in terms of quality adjusted life years and the whole thing falls apart. The median age of somebody dying of Covid was higher than the average human lifespan. What kind of sick demented society steals two or more years of little kids childhood for that?
