I think we are saying the same thing in slightly different ways. Agreed, they found fewer cases of Covid, the disease not the infection, based on self report data from the two test populations. They did not test the entire population fo

For one thing, I still don't understand Meta as a business. It seems like Zuck refused to accept owning a boring ad business and keeps trying to act like a tech business. For another, this seems like a move that happens when the bubble

The paper I shared actually doesn't support the claim of preventing infection. The trials showed a minimal risk of adverse responses to the injection itself and what appeared to be a reduced rate of symptoms. The trials didn't cov

Okay got it, I didn't expect that was what you were taking issue with. At least in the US, we were constantly being told by our government leadership that we all needed to take the vaccine to stop the spread. Fauci, for example, claime

Is your concern with what the studies tested or whether it was acknowledged? I can find you links, though it will be directly to the original studies done for the covid vaccines. The studies were well written and clearly called out their me

Don't worry, once we achieve post-scarcity they will have more tokens than they could ever dream for spending.

Its reasonable to agree a problem exists and that we don't yet have a solution worth implementing. Until there's a solution that actually addresses the problem without creating more, we should just try to make sure more people a

Are you proposing this convoluted system is how a govenerment regulated internet would function?

What type of roles are you considering? Look into their manufacturing, for example. They make all kinds of heavy machineryat costs much lower than US prices, as far as I understand a big contributor is labor costs. Its also worth noting tha

This is far from a new challenge though. Another recent example, China has an advantage on cost of labor and manufacturing, and lack of enforcement of IP rights. They can produce for much cheaper than many other countries but it hasn't

I wouldn't trust governments, today or in the future, to keep such a system private and I don't see a foolproof way of building some kind of audit mechanism into it to make sure the data is always truely private. I've also al

Not a misconception, just a discrepancy in what we were describing. I well understand that you shouldn't hit 0% for battery health and that the last 10-20% charge takes much longer than the middle of the charge cycle. I was responding

We did something similar, but used a dedicated server we already had on the network instead of another dev's machine.

That makes sense, its seemed to me for a while now the competing product is the harness not the model itself.

Yeah that's always possible. I only remember seeing the change after Russia escalated their war a few years ago, but maybe my memory is failing me there.

Nightly storage depends on being able to recharge to full capacity every day. That isn't a risk they could possibly accept, they would have to have an alternative source that could sustain when the sun doesn't come out or equipmen

You can't replace batteries with more solar, additional solar only increases the energy produced while the sun is out. That can help on overcast days, or the middle of winter when days are shorter, but you still need battery capacity t

by _heimdall 4mo ago
Interesting to see the general opinion on nuclear swing so far from environmental and safety concerns (whether warranted or not) to pretty broad support for energy independence. I can't help but think its a sign that those concerns wer

Oh I can't say I like XML and XSLT for the syntax or (lack of) terseness. I appreciate how it handles templating via selectors, logical operations, and runs as a first party templating engine in the DOM without depending on the JS runt

They would have access to IDs and whatever photos or real time video/audio is requires to verify. That's a big step towards building quite a large dataset for ID systems used for surveillance, for example. There's also always

Personally I'm of the camp that HTNL schema data should only represent what's visually displayed, much like how accessibility is usually done. In that way I like Microdata because it reinforces that if there isn't a DOM node

by _heimdall 4mo ago
Microdata is also a thing, and if I'm not mistaken supports the same vocabulary as JSON-LD (schema.org is a good resource). That said, JSON-LD has the default for a while now, much like how we largely abandoned REST for RPC. I'm n

That wouldn't change anything in this case. Either way you would need to (a) be able to know the state of billing in band before executing a request or (b) accept a slight out of band delay where cloudflare may allow a few extra reques

We did this in front of out old house in Scheveningen. The hofje had a very small shared space behind us so we pulled up the first foot of bricks in the street side of the house and planted flowers.

I'm surprised to see Ted Cruz co-sponsoring this bill given Trump's proclivity to pressure TV networks into silencing and/or firing hosts.

Market regulation and protection of property rights are quite different though. Protecting rights agreed upon by a strong majority of the population isn't really heavy government intervention in my opinion.
149.
by _heimdall 4mo ago
Both numbers matter though. Something is unaffordable only when you can compare the price and income.

by _heimdall 4mo ago
The definition matters for sure. IMO, markets (like speech) are either free or they aren't. We have a lot of government intervention in markets today. From subsidies to tax incentives to regulations and import tariffs, markets are much
