It took over a decade to confirm the Sverdlovsk anthrax outbreak was the result of an outbreak. In that case intelligence did suspect an accidental cause although scientists argued contaminated meat was the cause. Information can be tightly controlled under authoritarian regimes. Recall those who even reported the outbreak in the community faced recriminations.

What is known is the nearest relatives to SARS-CoV-2 are found in Yunnan and Laos. Both areas WIV sampled and they refuse to share their records with WHO or the NIH.
This always happens in summer IMO.
As a Java developer for 15 years and as a language enthusiast myself I'm curious as well. Because I definitely don't see many places where I would use pattern matching in my code or even records. Recently I wrote like 10k LoC and I used record once: in test code to return pair of values.

May be I'll replace some `if`-s with pattern matching, just like I use `instanceof` pattern matching today, but that's absolutely minor thing which is hardly worth mentioning.

I would even dare to say that lambdas and `var`-s for me are questionable features.

Actually as I grow older, I appreciate ascetic nature of Go and sometimes I think that using Java 1.4 might actually be preferable for many codebases.

I understand that for code which manipulates trees like compilers with their ASTs, pattern matching might be god send. The thing is... 99.99% of developers don't write this code, so optimizing language for it is strange goal.

Sometimes I think that some language features are driven by hype, even with Java.

I always happy about runtime improvements, though. And Java delivers in that front, so I can tolerate pattern matching and streams if I can get virtual threads and struct values.

There are well paying stable jobs, but you don't get to decide where the jobs are, so as a result of globalization companies follow investor money and that money is in NYC or the bay area instead of where the people live so the young move away from their hometown to some big city.
Do you even use reddit? I'm genuinely curious because your post comes off as someone who doesn't know how it works. To be a mod I would have to cozy up to the current mods and play politics to become one.
I was banned from r/news years ago for saying the migrant caravan existed in response to a comment saying there was no evidence that migrant caravans existed and linked one of the multiple videos. The message was simply "get out" followed by a presumptive muting so I couldn't respond to it. I was also blanket banned from ~70 subs because I made one post correcting someone in r/nonewnormal.
On the other hand, AVIF smoothes out the fine details. It struggles to preserve the texture of the receipt and the tiny specks on the inside of the cup blend together.

Haha totally. I had to keep in mind that my perfect is someone else's average.
That's true.

The worst parts of Spring is Spring. Nest lacks the IDE, the performance in the JVM, etc... there is nothing to gain.
> this article has little advice

What about this part:

> The war on drugs we have been fighting for almost a century now has made everything worse. Instead of helping people heal and getting their life together, we have cast them out from society. We have made it harder for them to get jobs and become stable. We take benefits and support away from them if we catch them with drugs. We throw them in prison cells which are literally cages. We put people who are not well in a situation that makes them worse and then hate them for not recovering. […] We have to build a society that looks a lot more like Rat Park and a lot less like those isolated cages. The opposite of addiction is not sobriety; the opposite of addiction is connection.”

That seems like pretty solid advice to me.
I am not so sure that I agree here. What's interesting about reddit is that it is one site with very different UIs. The official reddit app has a focus on video/images and looks to be in competition with TikTok. old.reddit.com and Apollo are very much text centric apps. From my understand, reddit has a traffic breakdown of 50/50 on the text centric vs. visual centric UIs. With the UIs like Apollo being killed, and old.reddit.com eventually going away as well[0], I think users will genuinely leave as they have killed the text based UIs.

[0] Despite any promises, the writing is on the wall.
Feature soup is kind of meaningless. The open source community has whatever it needs now.

Many "alot" of java programmers in the US cant code to JDK8 already. I love the JVM but these Java releases are not being adopted on any real scale for a reason. They break things. And syntax sugar is boring and unnecessary for a crew of software engineers that have no real ethos surrounding records or any of these features.

They are just being rolled out to appease devs from other ecosystems. They will not form a new or better method for building systems or improve performance.
Needlessly complicated.

If someone asks how to make money to pay the rent, the answer is to get a job and an income. There are some niche ways to make money otherwise but that's the path.

Usually going to work sucks. You have to set alarms in the morning, keep a schedule, go every day without fail, etc.

But you do it because you want to pay the rent.

That's fitness. You don't need a hack, you just need to recognise that you have to restrict your caloric intake. Everything above that is an optimisation that has barely any impact in comparison.

A lot of people don't do that because it's optional. It's not even that important in the grand scheme of things unless you're, say, 300lbs+, and that doesn't happen by just eating normal meals and foods.

As far as I understand it, crushing/injecting it makes it more likely to induce pronounced euphoria and other side effects that encourage abuse. But it was known from the start that it was addictive (causing a physical dependency) even if used as intended, simply because it is an opioid. Here's an older package insert:

https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2009/02...

Among other things, it says “Physical dependence and tolerance are not unusual during chronic opioid therapy.” I'm no expert, but I think that explains why warnings about dependence weren't more pronounced. The drug was supposed to be distributed in a tightly controlled fashion due to these risks, after all.

In retrospect, the warnings at the start, and the information for patients read like recipes for abuse, though.
Not an expert, but from what I saw: fancy peaches sold individually and melons. These are supposed to be good gifts to bring as a guest.
The difference is that here I've been able to see many opinions expressed and given a fair shake which would've resulted in a ban on most of Reddit. The title moderation also helps with keeping them neutral and/or informative (biased titles set the tone of the conversation).

The tone policing is far stricter, but the actual content policing is a lot less absurd. The result is that controversial topics and opinions don't result in as much of a toxic cesspool of name calling. On top of all that, here you can enable the display of deleted and flagged comments.
I saw this recommended in some of the recent threads as a good short story.

I don't notice any of the things you mentioned. As a user, I haven't felt much difference before and after Musk's takeover. If anything, I think Twitter is a little bit better and more vibrant now, because the censorship is not like before.

One of the most talked about qualities of the Vision Pro is the amazing resolution and definition of the pass through mode. I just can’t see Apple sacrificing this in order to lower the price.

The other suggestions make sense such as switching materials, remove the audio speakers and using AirPods. But if they are focused on building this spatial computer headset that is dependent on how you view the world in the headset, there is no way they will go for lower quality displays.
I worded that poorly; durability in the sense of being resistant to attack by bad actors, not in the event of a crash.
I think its important to remember that digg was changing the way content was generated and promoted to users. They kneecapped the entire democratic principles of the site, and reddit, a site entirely based on democratic promotion, was waiting in the wings.

Reddit on the other hand is changing how content is accessed on their site, but not changing the visibility or generation of that content. And if 3rd party apps are very important to those users, it's hard to find an alternative to plug in to.

I am beginning to think all the management posts are bullshit to some degree. Management is nor an easily definable skillset, and neither is it a well-defined role.
Of course you as a user don’t care that is profitable. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m not picking sides, but if you were the ceo/owner, you’d probably care about its profitability. If you were the owner of such a big site, wouldn’t you be thinking of ways to get yourself a -very comfortable- early retirement?
It's about specialization, as far as I can tell. A full-stack dev is very appealing to smaller firms that want to get as much value out of an employee as possible, but someone who just specializes in packaging may be more attractive to a "large scale" employer.

A friend would wear his winter parka with 6 massive pockets on budget airlines. Even to warm destinations. Each pocket contained travel pouch that he'd move into a bigger pocket molled to his main backpack. Folded up parka made for nice pillow.

> First one is annoying, but it makes sense, to some degree. You say the default is this particular instance that gets created when you define the function.

Could just as easily be an expression that's reevaluated on each call. In fact it's what most other languages do, making it twice as bad a decision. Even Javascript gets it right:

function fn(arg=[]) { return arg; }
fn() === fn()
// false

> Second is just how things work, the function is a closure that evaluates the non local variable when you run it.

That's again a decision made by Python. Some other languages behave as if each iteration had declared a different variable. Here's Javascript again, you can even use `const` for the iterating variable:

const fns = [];
for (const i of [1, 2, 3]) {
fns.push(() => console.log(i));
};
fns.forEach(fn => fn());
// 1
// 2
// 3

> Third one... Iterating over the generator does NOT yield an empty list, it raises StopIterator.

Sorry, my phrasing was imprecise. It's not doing 'yield []', but an exhausted generator does behave like an empty generator. Maybe they could have made it so the first exhaustion raises StopIterator, and subsequent ones a different exception? Like reading from a closed channel.

> I don't get the 4th. Comparison operators have the same precedence, so yeah.

It's not precedence, it's Comparison Chaining, the same feature that enables '1 < a <= 10'. If the operators had simple precedence, it would be equivalent to '(1 < a) <= 10' or '1 < (a <= 10)', but Comparison Chaining evaluates it as '(1 < a) and (a <= 10)'. Useful for specifying ranges, but a foot gun in other scenarios, like in my example.
> Surely not raw CPU, memory, or network bandwidth on the machine?

Why not? It gets worse and worse as we aim for more abstractions and layers of tooling.

Where the latest hype is server rendering React in NodeJs for what instead code by a static site...
I had a feeling someone would try and do this calculation. :) I would calculate it instead based on the number of flights rather than the number of airmen. It doesn’t make any sense if the units for the numerator are “number of successful suicide flights” and the demoninator is “number of airmen”.

I would not count the four flights in 2001, personally. Those are not suicide by flight personnel.

If you look at an average of say 25m flights per year since the year 2000, then you would have about 550mm flights. Even if you include the 4 tragic flights of 9/11 in the numerator, my 7 nines are very conservative.

As I’ve continued to repeat, a change in user preference (mostly from one ideology) is to blame for this.

Reddit went from pretty much complete free speech to one of the most censored websites in existence.

Huge portions of America now prefer censorship so Reddit has in essence created a moat for themselves.

If Americans were more accepting of all speech like before, Reddit clones would be easy to switch to. Now, you’re not only battling new censorship standards, but good luck getting on the IOS and Android store as a free speech forum.

On top of that, there are political benefits to this censorship. So that adds even more defense to the moat.
Mods are not fungible. It’s tempting to feel that they are, but they have an enormous influence on their communities.

Yes, the whole virus hunting grift that Peter Daszak's EcoHealth Alliance and PREDICT tout has been exposed as ineffective. Now they are doubling down with further funding and blanket denials that it could have come from a lab accident. They never mention the nearest relatives to SARS-CoV-2 are found in Yunnan and Laos. And that happens to be where WIV sampled.

The podcast (and audio in general) thing annoys me way more than it should. FFS, just use Opus, it is supported on virtually all devices out there and is massively smaller
I'm guessing the reason is that for predicting video frames hallucinating detail is undesirable, so you would rather remove detail than add non-existent detail. AVIF also seems to have some kind of deblocking filter which JXL lacks, to my surprise.
Wouldn't this add more cluttered boilerplate? Annotations are pretty clean looking but the backlash is from the "magic" they provide, not the clutter.
I'm surprised more people aren't talking about this. I'm active in some video game subreddits and I even mod a video game related sub with about 25k subscribers. And on multiple occasions I've had terrible interactions with those big multi-sub moderators. A particularly infamous multi-sub mod (whom you can probably figure out) has threatened me for my subreddit on multiple occasions, making statements like "I'll have you blacklisted from modding other subs". That same exact mod on multiple occasions has deleted my posts from subs he mods, just to reupload them for karma himself. I don't even care about the karma, I just wish mods wouldn't delete my posts that don't break any rules in any way, shape, or form, especially when it's for blatant karma farming.

If you look around Google you can even find several posts of subreddits getting "liberated" of this particular multi sub mod... Something needs to change so this stops happening
You know, by this metric since every historical journal has hosted papers from the greatest scientists we should just believe their word forever
I think that thinking of HN as anything close to being free speech though is a really wrong take. Sure it’s less leftist biased which is nice, but for example the title changes aren’t just to reduce controversy, they consistently favor the in-group. If you believed the HN homepage and comment section as anything close to the zeitgeist you’d be doing yourself a disservice.

Hi, thanks for your feedback.

Maven integration is not there yet. Gradle makes it easy to generate a POM, but I have honestly never published anything to central, and I don't even know what is necessary for that. I have added this to my to-do list.

HTTPS is something I won't have to deal with myself, because I'll be running it in a context (Cloud Run on Google Cloud Platform) with external HTTPS termination. If you have any chance to do the same, I'd highly recommend it, because you can use standardized solutions. Other than that, the current version runs on embedded Jetty, but is actually just a servlet code-wise, so any servlet container would do. Again, this is not possible out-of-the-box (unless you don't mind cloning grumpyrest and modifying the code), but likely will be in the future. Once you can use a standard servlet container, such as Tomcat, you can just follow the normal how-tos on how to add HTTPS.
