Currently, each infected person seems to infect 1.3 others. Italy has it down to 1.15 now. So for Germany it's 10000 today, but 13000 tomorrow and so on. That's what exponential means. Let's hope it slows down now with the so

Clearwater did not obtain consent, so the data shouldn't be there in the first place. Each and every data protection Behörde here in Germany should be investigating this.

Why is there no arrest warrant against the managers and owners of Clearview here on the EU? They are using PII of hundreds of millions of Europeans without written consent. That alone should mean billions of euros in fines.

Very true. But wasn't it China who tried to blame the outbreak on "US soldiers" to protect the CCP? I think it's very justified for the US to counter that by clearly attaching the place of origin to the virus.

Here in the center of my city in Germany, it's only like 2% wearing masks, and that's only because we have about 2% East Asians here.

Hungary has a "very high" HDI (higher is better), a very low GINI (lower is better), and a surprisingly high GDP PPP per capita. At least that's what Wikipedia tells me. You may be a bit too pessimistic.

Just look at the past 100 years of human history and the damage that has been done because citizens had NO arms to defend their rights against a despotic government. The deaths are counted in millions. Insurgent groups will buy 5 dollar AK-

Honestly, Bavaria is the only State that implemented sane rules. The list of exceptions in NRW is completely crazy.

If the code base needs to be rewritten anyway, why not to a memory safe language. Can be converted incrementally to Rust, too, because in the end its all machine code.

Very true. The entire EU also failed to co-operate during this crisis. And I fear that it will have a very adverse long-term effect on the EU as an institution. It was shown that in times of crisis, each country is alone. Sadly.

If anything, nobody has ever accused her of being a good public speaker. Also, this is what she said, only then NOT to implement any mandatory stay-at-home policies.

I think it's great that they exist. The problem is when they get used unnecessarily. Push notifications are good when my Webmail tells me there's a new message or Gitlab tells me my tests passed. Not so good when some crappy newsp

That's another thing: I am pretty shocked that our government doesn't have emergency reserves not even for these kind of simple items.

I lived in East Asia for many years, and never understand why people here in Europe don't wear masks. Not even now. Really weird.

SARS1 didn't have this effect. MERS didn't have this effect. And a number of other recent viruses didn't either. But every time there were people "predicting" the worst. This time they were coindentially correct. No

Maybe you should have told every single government in the world, because none predicted that it would have this huge of an impact. SARS1 pretty much stayed in China, MERS pretty much stayed in the Middle East. It was only when a country lik

In fact, the US too once had a better welfare system. Uncontrolled migration is a thing that started in the 70s. Confidentially around the same time the welfare state was destroyed.

Yes, and I don't really want to discuss the pros or cons of open borders. But it is also notoriously complicated to get a million dollars.
