A good webcam, in my opinion, is a device that provides a decent sound quality (from the article). Ehm, sure about that metric? Should a webcam not primarily offer good video? And why not having good audio by means of an external micropho

This is not a matter of incompetence. They even had auxiliary cables installed some time ago, one of these was the first to fail. All well-known best practices don't matter if structures cannot be maintained because the governing bodie

It is not binary in my experience. Most professional musicians know their instrument very well - and still know a man for the "hard" stuff, e.g. for thorough maintenance or repairs that require craftsmanship. And there are obvious

That's a very shortsighted view on the world. Particularly if you're working with other people. Once you are collaborating, there is simply more to good code than what you our your peers know about the code or the language. Workin

What I often experience (see also a lot of comments here): Some people, however smart, try to force git to do something in particular, without asking first "How can I do x with git" (I don't think I ever had a use case wher

There is a technical difference between an local repo and a remote repo (bare repository) - although I think you can clone from a repo and make this "authoritative", what you usually do is ( in your client, not the server ) - add

There is a approximate approach in Austria. Parties are allowed donations, but they can't spend more than x on election campaigns, no matter where the money is coming from. Time on public TV is kind-of regulated. TV ads are not really

Hm, let's dissect. Upgrade schedule for Fedora is twice a year, yes. Goes by without any issues, stuff still works. There is change and then there is change. Yes, I understand that some things don't need to change, and why do they

Running Fedora since I-don't-even-remember-when (around 2008?) and I was never annoyed (unless I try to run CUDA and the like, because they rely on e.g. an ancient GCC etc.). In particularly it was a significant improvement over the an

What I was trying to say is: I think in the thread above people are talking about different things. For the "danish mink mutation" - even if the exception to the rule - some of the above statements might not be true.

It was said (arguably in the news, so, nobody knows if true) that the mutation found in the mink populations in Denmark has a significantly different response to antibodies, in particular, they are less effective. This is why OP is asking a

I think someone should clarify the strands vs. genetic variations here. Because the reports from Denmarks Mink fiasco indicated that antibodies were not as effective on the mutation that appeared there short time ago. This would contradict

Maybe there is a slight semantic misunderstanding here, but in fact a "re-infection" is defined as such: A patient must present a infection and the particular virus must be sequenced , and then present with an infection later on

That's the part I was thanking you for ;), since I could not possibly know if you fixed it yourself. And I would not have expected you to write about something that needs to be changed (in that tone) and doing it yourself immediately a
