I don’t think the original title was misleading.
It says on the page:

Who will be offered vaccination against covid-19?

People aged 50 years and over will be offered vaccination.

People aged under 50 who are at a higher risk of becoming severely ill from covid-19 will also be offered vaccination against covid-19.

It doesn’t say people under 50 who have had 2 or fewer shots.

The comment you responded to seems to be a partial if not total fabrication.

I don’t see indication of any sort of “roll over eligibility”.

And I don’t think the official recommendation would be 2 shots for everyone since the linked page clearly states it is no longer offered for under 18s, and Søren Brostrøm, director of the health authority, saying it was a mistake to give it to any under 18s, and if you read between the lines and look at the data it was probably a mistake to give it to any under 50s.
This spring I left a job working with payments in a SaaS for the self storage industry. I don't remember exact numbers but the overwhelming majority of the card present payments we processed were either keyed by hand or swiped with a magtek reader. A great many self storage companies are mom and pop operations that only have one or two locations, often run by retirees to supplement their retirement income. Needless to say they (and the industry as a whole) are highly resistant to change.
Yeah... They fought against apartheid in South Africa while US fought to keep apartheid... They fought for Africa independence while the west wanted to keep their colonies... It's Cuba exporting terrorism and misery... Not forgetting how US recently destroyed the country with highest HDI in Africa, how CIA is a terrorist organization that blows up people with impunity around the world...
Try east europe, pays better and lower taxes. Standard of living is improving and accommodation is way better. You have room for growth as well. At least that’s what i see among software engs in Romania. Net pay is lower but take home is better. Heard poland and bulgaria arent far off. Ukraine was also good before the war.
Major boon to AI
Lemire's technique is really nice, in general a good thing to learn about, since it's a bit mind bending how it's playing with intervals. Sadly last time I benchmarked it in code on x86-64 for cryptographic purposes, it wasn't faster than rejection sampling, or just using a large value and a modulo reduction: in all cases what is actually taking a lot of time is the call to get good quality randomness out of a CSPRNG, the rest being negligible in comparison.
You have to create a google family to do it, but yeah that's the way to go.
Hold him, breastfeed him and co-sleep with him and he'll be fine. Otherwise you're doing something wrong.

It's basic common sense, if babies evolved to scream for no reason for long hours in the wild, early humans would have been killed off by nocturnal predators ages ago.
I didn't see any study demonstrating that Toxoplasmosis alters the brain of humans. Do you know any to share?

The "entrepreneurial tendency" is just a correlation.

We need to be careful in drawing such conclusions, especially when we call for broad societal changes based upon them.
Highly paid as a developer means you're making $400k+ with less than 10 years under your belt. Those people don't generally live with roommates unless they're aiming for aggressive FIRE.
> How would you describe the much worse lives of those people in their countries of origin?

I was born in one of those countries, and personally know people who have made the choice to work in these counties. Do understand that people are not choosing to be quasi slaves because their lives are better as quasi slaves. No, more often it's a choice to create better lives for their families, and sometimes rarely it's a choice by their parents to ship off one out of their seven children to generate income. This quasi slavery is only possible through the insane arbitrage generated by petrodollars, and because we only selectively choose to be morally outraged at human rights violation only when it's done by the villain of the week.
You're not citing your source, but it's likely "Taming the energy use of gaming computers" which is a problem: it's from 2014, it's a rough estimate, assumes that you turn off your computer only for 8h sleep, includes all the other work done on a PC if it's at all used for gaming, is based on hardware before we got massive frequency scaling, double graphics (like optimus) and before everyone moved away from CRTs... and finally before a massive exodus to laptops. (their follow up report discusses moving away from CRTs as a way to limit power usage) It's really not a good source today, it was a disputable one at the time, and doesn't even match the question - it measures gaming computers usage, not gaming usage.
E.g. United States have withdrawn their signature from International Criminal Court and will refuse (and actively oppose) being bound by ICC sanctions.
Nobody is talking about asbestos nor saying "natural" is inherently better. That's just silly to bring up and a clear strawman

We're saying in the case of clothes, natural means breathing less plastic and less plastic going in to our water.
End of the line for Adobe XD if this happens?

I like Figma a lot, but I'm glad I have an old copy of Sketch to fall back on. Adobe and its forever subscription model will eventually get applied to Figma.
So Okta and the US in general should also enforce similar sanctions on pretty much half of the planet, starting with Saudi Arabia. :o)
It should also be said that the biggest entities are staking pools/providers. If one of those act up, people can unstake and leave. It's really not that different from mining pools in PoW.
> As far as I know they traveled both ways routinely but returned voluntarily every time.

That's of course per-24-feb open russian invasion of those regions. There's been some people such as visiting their elder relatives during winter holidays and now stuck there.

I wouldn't say for removing ocuppied regions of Ukraine from the list but instead adding aggressor to it.
> it's quite grim to live in Western Europe on regular dev salary

No it's not. We still earn above average and (very) generally life in Europe are not grim.
This is the difference between a self-signed SSL cert and one that is issued by a trusted company.

An argument in trusting trust is meaningless. The whole point is that they can be trusted. If you don't believe you can trust them, then nothing is going to change that.

The goal isn't to make such scams impossible, but instead to make them too risky and expensive.

If you're going to do a scam like that on a business level, there's a lot of logistics involved. A mom and pop shop isn't going to be a suitable target, so you're going to be targeting a franchise where you can easily move operations to reduce costs. You have to spend a bunch of time building out a fake website. You have to put multiple boots on the ground to go around changing hundreds of QR codes to improve hit rates.

QR certification means you have to create a new business to apply that makes a paper trail. Creating something very close to an actual franchise is also going to run the risk of setting off alarm bells and getting busted by the FBI. It doesn't make this scam impossible, but adds a big enough hurdle to reduce profitability and increase risk to the point where there are easier scams to pull off.

The other kind of attack is one-off scammers hoping to trap people. In this "QRL" certification scheme (sorry for the bad pun), their scam would never get off the ground because it wasn't certified.

So assuming you want 5 to 10 years of storage for your NAS. At what point will the TCO of SSD be lower than HDD?

I still think digital storage in the modern era is a bag of hurt.
Have you considered moving to those countries for better pay? It sad to hear pay is so bad in germany, probably getting quality education in romania or turkey might help? At the end of the day you are also free to move in to any of these countries.
2 ways to make money - bundling and unbundling. unbundling works until a competent enough founder actually makes a good enough bundle. its an enormous undertaking to rebundle an unbundled industry, which data eng basically is
I really struggle with finding good quality clothes that last. Price is not a strong indicator but I do find fabric weight a fairly good indicator.

Any other tips?
No, I think the sanctions came from expropriating US property without restitution.
True. But you're not committing to it, you're just waiting for the evaluation instead directing resources into a change which might become obsolete soon, should the new option be a viable one.

In this case, where the code is coming from Cloudflare, you can be sure that they know what they're doing, that there is a high chance that it will be very high quality code.

Apart from this, it's an interesting article from a technical perspective due to the various topics it touches.

Also, in my case, where I'm looking for an new language to program in, where Rust and Go are the my main options, articles like these help me with the decision process on which one to choose.

There's much more value to this article than it just being an announcement that sometime in the near future they will be releasing an open source project.

It almost sounded like a "give me the code or shut up"-message.
> You can look at the countries titled with the euphemistic "developing markets" which have historically had extremely high risks AND a much lower return than in lower risk countries.

Hmm? Not sure what you mean. High-risk countries' bonds pay higher interest than low-risk countries' bonds. E.g. Ukraine was paying 10% interest in USD when US was paying 1%. Of course, expected value might be lower if you average over all such countries, but we are talking about a "happy case" here where a bad event did not happen.

> how can you price the risk of anything in the Blockchain space, like say Ethereum getting completely wiped out by a hack, etc?

Well, you can't calculate the risk but you can get 1000000% return (the actual return over 7 years for ETH presale). Or you can calculate the risk and get 5% return. It's your choice.
Banning automated enforcement is also the end of free and maybe even cheap services on the Internet.
Of course they aren't really scaling to hundreds of thousands of nodes. At any given time only 120 nodes are involved in consensus.
Just because it's not very useful today, it doesn't mean it's not useful ever.

Reminds me of people that were sure the Internet wouldn't go anywhere in the 80s. Technologies don't have to necessarily be useful on day 1 or even 1000 to be eventually successful.
It’s not about expense, it’s about safety and efficacy, the shots aren’t safe.
Never being a fan of purple, I do feel Ubuntu get it just right as a background colour - over grey and black as defaults. The screenshots in the article highlight this. While it of course can be changed, kudos for whoever did that. Having given up on Ubuntu over Snaps and going with Debian for everything, this is one of the first settings I changed - back to purple.

Small things are important.

A welder in london charges 700£ plus per day. A bit difficult to reach as a software engineer.
My view on this from the United Kingdom: I have no vested interest in any of the territories listed nor do I support them in any way, but my business should not be subject to the whims of overseas powers and foreign policy.

In response to this announcement I've closed down my Auth0 experiments. I refuse to be held to US enforcement when I operate outside US jurisdiction. I know other SaaS will follow suit, but we have to oppose this somehow.

As far as I'm aware, the UK does not have any sanctions imposed against Cuba for example, so Auth0's active stance on this is inappropriate for those outside US border.
I bought a shirt which is 50% bamboo (not cheap cheap - about $80). It's horrible to wear, like it's been heavily starched. I still kick myself for not reading the label properly, as it's quite a nice shirt
> however for light crashes, your hunk of 50's-70's metal will often end up with significantly less damage

I don't get your point - yes they have less damage, because they're not soaking up the energy. That's like saying "a motorcycle helmet made of solid steel won't damage as easily as a modern one". Sure, but that's exactly the point of a modern helmet

> Any service that forces a telephone registration for verification is crap in my opinion.

I agree with you, but it does dramatically cut down on spam registration.
I absolutely love overdraft fees. I've never used a bank that didn't have some ridiculous scheme of their own which you had to internalize or pay a monthly fee. Banks offer some guarantees, but they're not really helping most people.

Neither is Ethereum, maybe you'll say, but I didn't come here to argue about that. This is a day to celebrate because the #1 top complaint of all crypto detractors has been addressed by Crypto's second largest collective. Now that is finished we can move onto #2 top complaint, whatever that will be.

I certainly do not imagine, foresee, or desire to live in a world in which people must protect their private keys or forfeit their house to a hacker. But can you really say we aren't headed there now? Is the alternative better, (that you have to trust the bank's security? Are you in the US? Oh god, I have some bad news...)

Acting like scams began in 2008 when Bitcoin was first invented is the ultimate scam. I grew up in NY, we've all been getting scammed our entire lives, by the government too.
I had this happen with a new account (I didn't post anything yet), but in my case they responded pretty quickly to my appeal and re-enabled my account.
Thank you, I really appreciate the support, and I will pay it forward.

You can I believe forge DNA from scratch with enough effort or just pick some up that we perpetually shed everywhere.
Good catch! That seems to be a problem with a library we're using. I'll create an issue on Github and will try to fix that. Thanks!
I have found Copilot useful while writing compilers and virtual machines all the way up the chain to CSS grids and media queries.

Are you telling me there isn’t a fair bit of boilerplate in bog standard implementations of OP_ADD or in a grid layout with a sidebar and a footer?

The irony here is that the level of abstraction necessary to remove all boilerplate means that you’re removing the descriptive nature of the boilerplate and making your code difficult to understand.

Boilerplate isn’t necessarily a bad thing but sometimes it can be rather verbose and it is very nice to offload that typing to a tool.
It's not how it was spelled out in the Bitcoin whitepaper, but how it was sold to the public - privacy was among the biggest draws initially if you remember.
I've been hanging on to my "dumb" 4k TV for the past 8 years.

I had no idea that I'd have to prepare for something similar with a car.
In otehr words: You have "faith" that cryptocurrencies are a fad, right? Some people spent dozens, maybe hundreds of hours understanding everything behind it, and those people colectivelly made Bitcoin worth what it is today. You can continue to have "faith" in this having no value. But if everyone around you start using Bitcoin, would you rather switch your faith to what the others around you believe? Or you rather chase knowledge of why this is the case?
Surely being on Steam is much more important than being on Twitter. I play a ton of indie games but have never used Twitter and even if I did use it can't imagine looking for new games to play there.
If being an asshole was a crime, we wouldn't have enough prisons to keep all the convicts, yourself included.

Infants especially sleep BETTER when there is noise and people around. For an adult noise means something is possibly coming to harm you and your family at night so it awakens you. For an infant, lack of noise means abandonment and the response is to cry as infants are helpless without their parents

If you're talking about the Iraq war, this was one of the most disapointing things the west ever did... i mean... I totally expected them to "accidentaly" find something with a CNN crew just randomly being there.. like one of those "we just 'liberated' this iraqi building, here camera crews, you can go inside with us, so we all look in the basement together, who knows what's in there, might be barrels of radioactive fuel, that we totally didn't put there ourselves, promise!", and not even that...

But somehow, american still speak about "fighting for freedom" and act as if they're the "good guys", while they go and destroy another middle eastern country.
Well, the brain is not a back-prop NN, that's obvious. It's also obvious that a part of it is pre-wired for essential "life support", such as generating a heart beat, breathing, walking, sucking, etc. It's interesting to consider how deeply instinctive our knowledge of water is, but since our lives depend on it, I suppose quite deep, and thus related to that of other mammals.

Curious... Soviet union were completely right when criticizing US for lynching black people... But it is interesting how propaganda works... It's like nowadays when you point hypocrisy in the Internet, but people just yell "whataboutism" as a way to always ignore criticism and do not accept responsibility for double standards and hypocrisy in the propaganda that they spread. Of course, this happens only for criticism against US and the west, never against non-aligned countries. Nobody creates a wikipedia post about "And what about Stalin/Tiananmen Square/Whatever" trying to take away importance from criticism against communist countries calling it a "demagogical trick" like described in the above wikipedia page.
Are there any statistics on how much higher the survival rate is in a larger car rather than a smaller car? (assuming roughly equivalent safety technology).
Vector search is incredibly powerful on matching on context or similarity. For example, automobile and car are semantically similar and, and one will rank well for the other in a search.

Vector search, though, isn't as good on handling typos and not good at all when it comes to as you type searching. Vehic won't match on auto, for example.

We believe that there is use for each of these approaches and a use in a single search, rather than choosing ahead of time or through heuristics after the fact which to choose.

They have been doing this since iPhone X. Somewhere along the line "Computational Photography" took over. And the old iPhone where they value true to life photo style turns to HDR high contrast smooth looking Instagram photos.

I remember the old Apple guards used to trash the Samsung / Android photo as being unrealistic. How the tide has turned.

The new Apple resembles very little of the old Apple.
I have more than 4 kids

Interesting book, thanks for sharing. Is there a PDF available anywhere?
Or let’s talk about just how about the Garmin is actually a rugged device and usually clipped directly to an individuals clothes/pack. I can’t imagine iPhone is as durable and that typical protective case can be or will be attached to the individual hiking.

There are still situations I think sos on iPhone 14 does make sense. Like driving in middle of nowhere without signal and having car troubles.

I would also though agree people may get this false sense of safety, but I’m sure having something is better than nothing and having 2 options is better then 1 and maybe someone else hiking may find an someone who needs emergency help and doesn’t have inreach and able to help. The iPhone isn’t useless as sos device, but I will know I’ll be counting on my inreach on my adventures as my emergency beacon even if I did have iPhone 14.
Yea my point is more along the lines of crypto would call this like “staking” instead of “collateral” and act like they’ve invented a new financial concept.
One should factor in taxes, vesting times and what % is actually yours of those shares. Two websites i quickly used for calculating take home pay showed 8000-9000 usd per month.

Their claim was that adversaries are spreading vaccine disinformation. This is backed up by evidence. The only claim being made is that adversaries are doing this.
Personally I've only ever gotten close to making $$ off of stock once, but got fired 2 weeks before my first vesting period because I took 2 weeks off after my father's death.

Every other start-up I've worked for either went under, never exited or had an exit only the founders profited from. This is probably true for 99% of all start-ups.
Why would that push salaries down? Should they be even higher in that case?
There is often a disconnect between management and lower levels. I suspect the store would probably get in trouble for this behaviour.

Not least because it opens the company up to fines for false advertising (e.g. Australian Competition and Consumer Commission regularly polices companies operating in Australia, which H&M does)
I simply struggle to see it as an 'especially egregious' act of sexual predation when the facts are on the ground, or rather, obscured and unknown. I'm saying that the assumption that a difference in power is enough to turn a relationship from 'weird but OK' to 'egregious sexual predation' does not always hold, and it's hard to see where it does hold without removing all agency from the 'victim'.
It sets a good precedent, the shots aren’t safe or effective. Does everyone have amnesia about how these things were sold? They were supposed to stop the virus cold. So much for that.

It’s a very good precedent. It wasn’t supposed to be an ongoing thing. The risk benefit just isn’t there except maybe for the most comorbid.
Beautifully structured and implemented post! I'd love to see a book with 20-30 such articles of various lengths.
