> True. You can argue they were a net benefit to certain at-risk demographics but the idea that they were safe, necessary, or beneficial to give en masse to adolescents with prior exposure is just laughable.

There's legitimate discussion to be had, but how convenient of you to ignore that there's also a lot of misinformation being spread. Saying that vaccines are not effective when they are. Lying about the dangers or claiming that they'll turn you magnetic or turn you into a crocodile

From the article:
Unfounded claims included that the vaccines caused infertility, irreparable damage to one’s immune system, increased risk of developing a chronic illness for children, and a higher risk of cancer and death.

This is just plain old antivaxxer nonsense

> So, not even really a claim that outright false misinformation was spread here, just that they did not slavishly follow the FDA.

No, literal misinformation was spread claiming that drugs that don't work were effective.

Again, people can "challenge" whatever they want, they just can't make up bullshit. The doctors in the study were lying. They were making claims that wearing masks was actually harmful.

Hmm, is a heart just one type of cell? Surely there are muscle cells, and nerve cells? In which case, how do they get the nerves in the right place?

Both have their advantages though.

> how would you characterize "the sentiment of the headline"?

A lot of scientists are abandoning Twitter, and this is a significant development.

In reality, they could only talk to a tiny minority of people they tried to (which by itself causes selection bias - if I were ok with Twitter, I wouldn't talk to journalists about it, but if I had an ax to grind, I'd surely jump at the chance) - who are also a tiny minority of all Twitter users. And of those that did respond, they had about half using Twitter less (how much less? why? maybe they are busy doing, you know, actual science, instead of tweeting?) - what does it tell us? Pretty much nothing. But they are trying to build a narrative from it:

The survey from Nature asked whether people had changed their use of Twitter in the past six months and why. The reasons respondents gave varied, but many of those who had markedly reduced or stopped their activity on X mentioned Musk’s management of the platform. Many said that they had noticed an uptick in the amount of fake accounts, trolls and hate speech on the platform.
Žiga Malek, an environmental scientist at the Free University of Amsterdam, mentioned in the survey that he had started seeing a lot of “strange” political far-right accounts espousing science denialism and racism in his feed.

The message is clear: Musk removed the censorship and now far-right fascist racist trolls took over twitter and the scientists are fleeing from it. We need much more censorship - especially, political censorship - on the social media, or the science (especially female researchers struggling with inequity!) is doomed. That's the sentiment embedded in the message. That's why this article is written, actually.
Over 50 years ago my grandparents had a switch on the door from the garage to their house that automatically closed the garage door when they went into the house. They could disable it if they wanted to leave the garage door open for some reason. Their garage door (like most automatic garage doors) had a sensor setup so it wouldn't close if something blocked it. Something simple like that would probably work.

You will not, it's a fine choice for a software stack. There have been startup time problems, which Spring has been doing an excellent job of addressing. There's also been some silly performance problems which afaik have been addressed.

We personally use Quarkus and it's also pretty good. I think the Quarkus story has driven spring towards having a better story and both are pretty excellent stacks to go with.

For the record, I'm currently in Saigon, and whenever I order delivery from the local Tops Market (around USD 1.5 fee, within two hours from order placement) they call me to say that bananas are either too ripe or too green and confirm if I still want them.

In response to another comment, the pickers have access to the backroom and frequently deliver better produce than would be available in-store.
Spring is old. The negativity comes from the the time where ppl would jump to Rails or Django instead of dealing with the config explosion/unnecessary complexities for startups/verbosity of the java at the time.

Oh yeah, some days I was making $600-800 profit a day! But most days it was ~$100-$200/day.

> It's puzzling to me why police need to be involved at all

The police: "the civil force of a state, responsible for the prevention and detection of crime and the maintenance of public order."

If you gave this task to "transportation department or some such" they become the police. They become the civil force of a state, responsible for the prevention and detection of this specific crime.

Except of course if you boot up a brand new police force just for this task they will bumble around and make all the mistakes while they lean how to you know police.

It sounds like this can be seen in two ways:

2) Non-white people are over-represented in the company outside of leadership.

Both of these statements are true.

Which was ignoring my point above: "I've see people move into the middle of the lane for an approaching car so it won't pass, and when there would've been room to pass safely."

At least in California the law is:

"Any person operating a bicycle upon a roadway
at a speed less than the normal speed of traffic
moving in the same direction at that time shall
ride as close as practicable to the right-hand curb".

I get the safely part, but I'm talking wide separated lanes here, well over 14ft with weekend warrior-types trying to swerve in front of cars after having them behind them for a mile or two (no honking or tailgating). It's ridiculous and needlessly aggressive.
> It seems like there's no feature request they can say "no" to.

Well the opposite of this is the antiquated world of "old Java". My subjective assessment is that Spring is somewhere in the middle: reasonable conservatism of principles but eager adoption of beneficial new things. Jumping on virtual threads is a reasonable action.

> their call stacks between injected components are sometimes a couple dozen layers deep and it makes no sense.

We're talking big enterprise-y software, right? Things get huge over time, no way out of complexity. The major red-flag would be accidental complexity which Spring, compared to the rest of the Java world, generally manages well, I'd say.

> they don't provide easy upgrade paths between majors versions and they stop updating vulnerabilities on older major versions. I inherited some code that was using version x but had to be upgraded due to critical vulnerabilities. The vulns weren't fixed in x or y but only z. I tried moving over and their cryptic unit test fixtures stopped working. No docs on migration. Spring is sort of like cancer.

Well non-trivial upgrade paths is the essence of a "major version upgrade". The alternative is to let old ideas never die and either stop introducing new concepts at all (old Java) or introduce them and make the framework bloated (something you criticized in the beginning of your comment). It's a trade-off which I think generally is well managed in Spring. It's boring, but in a good way.
Spring boot has driven spring to be a lot simpler as well. Further other frameworks like Micronaut and Quarkus have driven spring boot to be better.

There's been some real symbiosis among the backend frameworks that has caused them all to lift in quality.

> The basis for song "reconstruction" claims [in the popular media] is the song-excerpt identification analysis

Not correct for the Dutch state news, at least. They make the same "reconstruction" claims while showing the audio fragments that don't use any input data (for 1 and 29 patients), while mentioning that it's not very accurate but at any rate still recognizable. https://nos.nl/artikel/2486771-computer-herkent-pink-floyd-n...

Use IP cameras to watch the garage door. A little Blink camera at the back of the garage will tell you if the door is open. There are IP devices that connect to garage door openers via two-wire and can be controlled via an app. The only thing about remote operation is that you're not present to ensure the door is clear of obstruction, and you're out of luck if the power/data goes down.

I used to think medicine shipped to my door was great too. That is, until I lost my job. My benefits were cut off immediately (the company did a layoff at the end of the month on purpose) and I could no longer access my medication. Despite having a script with the company and plenty of refills from my doctor they outright refused even if I paid cash. I ended up going 2 weeks without medication and having to get an ER doctor to write me a new script. my primary wanted an entirely new visit to rewrite an existing script because they didn't believe my story.

Between this and being treated like a junkie when I need a hold-over dose of a non-addictive non-narcotic medication makes me hate the cards I was dealt. Pharmacists are complicit in this even though they frame themselves as victims of the system as well. Those kickbacks from drug companies and doctors are just too damn good.

Anyone who actually deals with the medical system knows these services are not a universal good. I always advise people to stick with GoodRx and a local (physical) location for medication so you don't get you medication promptly cut off when (not if) you lose benefits.

> the redesign got rid of the menu bar

This drives me batty, and it just feels like an insult.

For decades, the argument for sticking with Windows was that it was a single stable UI/UX with lots of established conventions. The same menus in the same places, the same hotkeys worked everywhere, etc. Linux couldn't claim that, was the pitch.

Since human time is the expensive part, it didn't matter if the OS itself wasn't exactly performant, and we could afford to throw hardware at its ever-more-bloated footprint, because the investment in _human reflexes_ paid dividends whose value far exceeded some extra sticks of RAM or whatever.

Now that hardware is virtually free and it _should_ cost nothing to continue that legacy of consistency, they've fucked it all up! Teams is completely unusable by keyboard, the new UI skin got rid of all the menu bars, lately I've found GUI elements that're _hidden until you mouse over them_, like are they kidding?

I feel like I've been played for a fool. Every time I run into one of these insults, it pisses me off way more than the individual problem should, because it twists this 3-decade-old knife in my gut.
Depends on what you need, tbh. I looked into Vite briefly but esbuild seemed more obvious/ direct for hooking into the build system.
