Yes. It is true. If I got a penny for every time Larroccha gets mentioned in the discussions about small hands and alt sized keyboards I would be a millionaire. First of all, nobody, ever in their right mind would bring up Larroccha when ta

Yeah, every time I hear stories of those "great pianists with small hands". Somehow those "small hands" always translate to "can comfortably reach 10ths or 11ths or more" and not octave at most. Which just driv

It's one thing to point out how women have especially hard time competing due to hand sizes. Which is true and a fair argument to make in favor of among other things (such as sizes accessable for children, etc) But saying that it'

I don't think this is exclusive to deadlifts either, the main physical benefit from weightlifting (strength training in particular) is that you can lift heavier things. Yay!? Any outdoorsy activity is vastly superior to it due to expos

None of these articles ever come to mention compile times, which are crucial for productivity on both large and complicated projects, and those are absolutely attrocious for Rust. Which is why I would avoid rust for anything where productiv

A lot of people that shouldn't and wouldn't have died are dead. Even more are unemployed, starving, homeless and in severe distress as a direct consequence. I sincerely doubt that it would amount to a net win, after everything els

If the virus hasn't been stopped completely all you are doing are dragging feet indefinitely (with all the catastrophical damage that comes along with it). It hasn't worked - literally nothing had qualitatively changed since day 1

I kind of doubt that people who have been struggling with depression for 10-20 years will share the sentiment. No doubt they will experience some sort of hardwired survival instict which kicks in as they are about to go, but that's abo

Ryzen 2nd-gen 2700 is out of stock currently, but it used to go for as low as $135-150, it's absolutely not a $290 CPU (perhaps you're looking at 3rd gen ryzen? 3700x?). I haven't looked at what a GPU equivalent would be, but

by Johanx64 6y ago
I suppose you are referring to having R0 below zero. Now then the question becomes what kind of measures are necessary to keep it there and if those measures are feasible long-term. If those measures are not feasible long term (this seems t

I frankly don't get where the misunderstanding is. If you take 1000 deaths and spread them across a 6months or a year instead of 2weeks, no lives have been "saved". Similarly the act of spreading it out via general extended q

If I recall correctly, from the people that get put on ventilators only half of them live. Secondly, why is nobody ever talking about the amount of deaths, starvation, homelessness and impoverishment that will result from economic damage of

Delaying deaths (slowing the spread) doesn't mean that "deaths" are prevented - they are still going to happen just spread across significantly larger timeframe, however, the extreme measures taken to slow down the spread hav

No, the argument doesn't distill down to "corporate profits and bankers". It goes down to - do you want to save lives of wealthy - usually old middle class people in 1st world countries who can "afford to quarantine&quot

The problem with "pro-quarantine" arguments is that they miss that: a) they are not going to "save hundreds of thousands of deaths", because quarantine doesn't stop the virus it only slows it down, in other-words qu

Do you question the premise that: a) economic depression will directly or indirectly kill people b) lockdown doesn't "solve the problem" - it merely slows it down We can argue all day about exactly numbers of how many people
289.
by Johanx64 6y ago
Your whole argument relies on the faulty notion that the lockdown prioritizes "saving lives" over the economy. This simply isn't true, and I'd argue that lockdown will directly or indirectly kill more people than it will
