> Arguably, having a ton of unvaccinated kids going to school and swapping the virus back and forth constantly and then infecting their families could have been a big contributor to how long this pandemic lasted.

Vaccinated kids did this too. "The pandemic," to the extent one ever really existed, was ended by Omicron being so infectious that even the "careful" ones were forced to face Covid and see that it wasn't really that bad, and that all their assiduous efforts to avoid infection were largely for nought anyway.

I got my first infection from my kids attending school during the Delta wave. We were fine (although I didn't just sit at home and do nothing which was what the treatment advice amounted to at the time). Much like school shooting drills, the stress that was caused by exposure notices, testing, and the like was all a problem of the overreaction in response to the underlying phenomenon, and not the phenomenon itself. Certainly none of it could have been reduced by a higher rate of vaccination, since the vaccines were thoroughly ineffective against transmission at that point.

> Are you disputing that Covid itself was known to cause myocarditis at an even greater rate than any vaccine was said to?

I do dispute this, yes, given that a huge Israeli population study found no increased risk of myocarditis in Covid-recovered subjects in 2020 pre vaccines. I also dispute that the comparison would matter at all even if it were true, because the risks of myocarditis from the shots and from the virus are cumulative, not mutually exclusive, since the shots do not prevent Covid.

There is not some tidy choice to be made between mutually exclusive outcomes of "myo risk from the shots" and "myo risk from the virus." In every case where someone has developed heart issues after both vaccination and infection (including in a friend of mine who had 3 shots of Moderna), their doctors will invariably attribute it to the virus, and usually won't even report it as a potential side effect of the vaccine, so they seem to have zero confidence at all in vaccination's ability to reduce myocarditis risk from COVID infections.
Why is JS even relevant to this discussion?
Thank you for response, I also find some tips here https://designmodo.com/email-subject-lines/
""Yeah, because a common bodyguard mainly creates visibility."

Indeed, but even ignoring that (and the cost which is usually not a problem in these circumstances) there can also be quite a few more drawbacks that you didn't mention, but again, I don't really want to get into it."

I actually worked a bit in security and so I can tell that some of the other disadvantages are, that most security guys are treated badly, get very lowly paid and their morals are low - so their motivation to potentially sell you out (or not wake up when you need them) is actually quite high. Some high profile companies might be different, but I know I would not trust a common security company with anything (And the company that I worked for had a good reputation and was involved with securing government buildings, but I was a bit shocked to look behind the facade, it all only works, because most criminals are unprofessional as well)

Otherwise you do sound reasonable that you take the appropriate steps, but like you said, it is all about the right balance and yes, you have to accept some risk in life.

But of course, now I am really curious about your risk profile. Seems to be quite an unusual one.. but I can understand, that you don't want to share details. Because unlike often cited here, Security through obscurity is a real thing.

edit: but I have to relativate about the security guys I worked with: some of them were quite bad, but probably none of them would have actually ignored when a child was in danger, or activly helped an attacker for money. They just didn't give a shit in general, so maybe would miss the alarm.
And miss doing maintainance in alarm systems etc.
And not follow safety protocols (in theory there were actually too many of them, but even the simple and useful ones got ignored)

It's 2023. Pretty much everyone is using Unreal Engine, Unity or Godot for the bravest. Custom renderers are a thing of the past. The reason game developers don't release on macOS and Linux is the costs of testing and supporting the platforms, not the availability of the renderers.

"Safety costs too much. The fda should make the decisions based on what would be best for the billion dollar corporations!"
Or maybe they should have the US distribution rights seized and testing paid for and then the product profited on by tax payers instead of a private corporation? Win win for everyone but the billion $ corporation.
don't really see "fuck it, make us less safe so corporations can make more money" as rational policy.
And if you don't think drastically reducing the barriers to entry for products in to the us would make us less safe I'm certainly open to hearing how.

I never understood why AWS has so much appeal when it comes to cloud infrastructure. Why not cheaper clouds? Is it about scalability, reliability, speed, modernity of equipment, customer support, UI, speed of networks?

Let's say the requirement is to build a platform like Twitter with 100mln daily active users. Wouldn't cloud like Hetzner with AWS/GCP/Azure failover, survive this?

I worked with AWS as a developer for a long time, but in pretty much ever case 10 was more than enough.

Would be very grateful if someone could share some insight into it!
I do tend to think 30% is rather excessive but it's still standard across multiple things.. and I remember this talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stxVBJem3Rs years ago from an indie guy, just a minor remark around the 27 minute point on how when you factor in the cost of doing everything steam does for you on your own, it suddenly isn't such a terrible cost. I have quibbles with that suggesting an all-or-nothing environment when that isn't the case, but the deal only gets even sweeter if you can take advantage of more of steam's offerings besides just being a place to host and sell your game.

On the consumer side too, steam makes things pretty frictionless. I can't say literally all of my budget on games is through steam, but it's over 95%. I was also happy that their steam deck I got recently, in addition to helping the linux ecosystem in theory, is actually not a piece of junk like the librem phone I finally got delivered this year and so helps it in reality too. (Though in the librem case that was expected even at pre-order time.)

You are equating "bad person" = "sleeps around", which tells me everything that I need to know about your views on sex.

I don't think that's true. At least not for rare diseases. There are thousands of them and they impact very small populations. The current cost to develop a drug and get it through trials is > 1 billion dollars.

Professor Kevin Anderson: There’s no hiding from carbon budgets [video]
Talk abstract:

As climate change increasingly exacerbates extreme weather events around the globe, so government leaders are increasingly using the language of a “climate emergency”.

But look beyond the fine words, and it is quickly evident that behind the relatively recent framing of ‘net zero’, many governments, companies and institutions are planning for little more than incremental adjustments to business-as-usual.

But “nature will not be fooled” by empty rhetoric, subterfuge and unsubstantiated optimism – and nor should we.

The challenges we face in delivering on our Paris climate commitments beg fundamental questions of almost every facet of modern society. This presentation will seek to lay bare the sheer scale, scope and urgency of emission cuts now required to meet our Paris climate commitments. It will conclude by offering an outline of the key characteristics delivering on such commitments needs to entail.

Please note, for those with a more sensitive disposition, this is very much a “red pill” presentation.
Yeah that would be nice, but pretty hard to enforce.

4) useful bipedal robots - this one is probably just around the corner (see boston robotics).

5) programmable matter / nanobots - the applications of a swarm of nanobots or even microbots are pretty much endless.

Show HN: Custom Haskell handlers for Nginx
This is rather a mature project. It began out of curiosity: I wanted to test if Haskell FFI was powerful and expressive enough to interconnect C and Haskell code flawlessly. Particularly, if C strings generated inside Nginx can be shared within Haskell code and what must be done to respect their lifetimes etc.

Recently, I released version 3.2.0 with revamped README (with a lot of examples) and a new approach to building Haskell handlers using the modernized cabal v2-build for dependencies.
Not really, no.

>>> How lucky I am to be her 23rd partner?

I actually think OP has a very valid point and the opposition/criticisms have it too. However, I think both sides may be saying the same thing, but express it differently:

Question: "How many partners have you had?"

A- The OP side asks the "question" -> doesn't like the answer -> breakup.

B- The counterOP never bothers to ask the "question" -> doesn't like the relationship -> breakup

Meaningfully, both parties are doing the same thing. The only meaningful difference is that (A) is making Type I errors, while (B) is making Type II errors.
Google copied it from Firefox and called it "Chrome Downloads", so it's only logical that when Microsoft copies it from Chrome, they will call it "Edge Downloads".
Is it possible at all that we moved from apples to oranges, or is it important to you to feel like its "better"? Because, I get it, something like optimism is important, but that means you end up being forced to argue this way, which leaves you in possibly a worse kind of fatalism than the one you are pushing against: that economic and societal oppression is baked into the fabric of humanity, that we can only look at degrees of oppression, rather than the structures and first principles that sustain them, and say "yeah its good enough for me that I don't have it as bad as the last guy".
ADHD is not a true or false thing, which is what leads to the "everyone is a bit ADHD" myth.

Some people struggle in some situations, but with behavioural management can control it. Some people will find any excuse to not do what they're supposed to do, and have to fight the urge all day every day.

I personally had a bit of the latter, in that I often found myself just unexpectedly walking off mid work and finding myself across the building for no reason. It was just a physical urge to get up and do anything apart from work
by going to lower hanging fruits as the justification for why that argument is wrong, you have already lost the argument, imo. The correct response is they aren't consuming resources at the expense of everyone else, they are collecting a tiny fraction of the resources owed to them for foregoing consumption in the past in order to invest in capital that has made everybody's life dramatically better. The people that got rich through theft is pretty small just because so many people have turned good ideas into good companies over the last 100 years growing the economy by a staggering amount and drowning out the royalty and other thugs that got rich extremely unjustly.

Ok, I think I understand your position better now. However, I think maybe you misunderstood mine in my original comment:

>When I enter a relationship, I cannot reliably predict what her behaviour will be during or after the relationship. But I can extrapolate what her current and future behaviour will be from her previous behaviour.

This is the point I was trying to get at. Past behavior is the best predictor we have of future behavior, which is why it is valuable to date people who have a history of behavior for us to examine. It makes it easier to weed out bad matches from good matches. When people have no history of behavior (i.e., they are young and don't have a lot of life/dating experience), there is really no way to know what their future behavior will be.

My main thrust is that early-age marriage is not actually a good thing. It is better for people to marry after they are more experienced, even if that experience reveals that maybe some people shouldn't marry at all (i.e., it is better that they never marry at all than that they get married young and later realize they shouldn't have).

>The number of partners must equal the number of breakups.

Yes, they are the same (I guess outside of ongoing polyamorous relationships). I just used that wording to emphasize the breaking-up aspects of these previous relationships.

Tips for avoiding this that have worked for me:

Go early in the morning. The 10:00 am Sunday showing of Oppenheimer is likely full of movie buffs.

Go midweek. An emptier theater reduces the impact of phone screens if someone uses one.

Go to nicer theaters with higher numbers of staff.

Go to niche theaters. The non-profit place with the weird snacks is likely filled with movie buffs.

Go to classic movies you missed the first time around.

I once got a Chromebook to see how far I can go with running Linux programs on it. As soon as I discovered that its keyboard (and most of other Chromebooks) don't have F11 or F12, and window management is a mess, I got rid of it. I guess the latter isn't really a problem if a "real" Windows/Linux is running on it, but the keyboard issue is quite annoying.

Talking to a bunch of Germans. They all require weeks in advanced to plan any kind of social activity, and if you ask them they admit they would rather just stay at home, and they are really cold to you for a long time (even years). Granted this is mainly scientific people but it’s still way more extreme than anything I experienced in the UK, and all of them also say it’s a general problem with the German youth too. They all value their personal time more than social time
Zig can and does win plenty of those benchmarks, but ultimately it boils down to who is it that gets nerdsniped into working on a specific challenge.

For example in this case Zig won big time over what C/C++/Rust people submitted:
https://youtu.be/pSvSXBorw4A?t=1075

Zig is in the same ballpark as the ones mentioned above, so flohofwoe is right. But nevertheless I do think that cztomsik's point also still stands: how hard it is to make something fast will end up impacting the performance characteristics of the average program and library out there, and Zig does make it easier to write performant code than some other languages.

Which is basically what happened here: https://zackoverflow.dev/writing/unsafe-rust-vs-zig/

In truth the same applies to correctness, which is also a point that the blog post above touches upon.
My advice to myself and many of my friends have exactly based on that type of reasoning.
