What is Google if not a website that openly flouts copyright law? I don't remember Google getting license to store my website in their index or to show my images in Google Images.
I don't mind, of course, but it goes to show that the whole thing is bogus and a different set of laws apply depending on how much money you have.
74% backing sounds pretty good for a cryptocurrency. I wouldn't touch tether myself as USDC is better in every way, but I don't think there's going to be the fireworks that people predict if the peg falls only to 74 cents.
Theoretically Pfizer has higher efficacy, especially with variants. Giving Pfizer to the old and AZ to the young probably saves more lives than the other way around. If you decide that you don't want to give AZ to the young any more, it doesn't follow that it's then a good idea to give it to the old, especially if you have enough supplies of Pfizer to vaccinate the old.
>Hospitalization data for 129 of the fully vaccinated cases is incomplete, Sutfin said. But for the 117 people for whom hospitalization records are known, 11 were hospitalized.
"However, since February 1, eight people with vaccine breakthrough have been hospitalized. DOH is investigating two potential vaccine breakthrough cases where the patients died."
You should be careful comparing numbers from vaccines as they are collected in different environments; there were fewer variants present when first vaccines were on trail.
You can bridge through JavaScript. It's not a big deal in practice. WASM is still very immature. You do not want to build your whole app in WASM if you want to keep a full head of hair.
It does limit a lot of use-cases from being viable in WASM.
Anything that needs to do a lot of DOM access will probably see a big performance hit if you rewrite it in WASM because there will be too much overhead from crossing the JS-WASM border.
This is what worries me. I have had the AZ vaccine. Will I be at risk of this syndrome every time I am exposed to coronavirus? In other words, is the risk cumulative?
It is relevant to the discussion because the AZ and JJ vaccines are for the "rest of the world", so comparative differences in the cost of IG between US and other healthcare systems is relevant.
GPU have high latency. For a chess engine like stockfish which is designed to search as many positions as possible, the latency of a GPU is a big problem.
Engines like LC0 that do use the GPU work by searching fewer positions but with a heavier eval function. This makes the latency less relevant because it is a smaller percentage of the GPU time.
Board game AI works by searching through the state space, and evaluating each state with the neural network, then picking the move with best expectation.
So it needs to load the comparatively tiny game state (chess board) into the GPU for each evaluation. The more game states it can evaluate per move, the better it is. It can be in the order of millions.
Every culture has certain principles that are taken as axiomatic. The prioritisation of those principles is also axiomatic.
For example, where I live, nearly all people wear clothes, and they generally think that wearing clothes is important - even if the weather is mild enough that you won't get cold or sunburn if you dispensed with them. Moreover, they will get upset if other people dispense with theirs.
What I find funny is that people will ridicule organised religions for prescribing certain clothing (such as Mormonism, Sikhism, Islam), blissfully unaware of their own quasi-religious attitudes towards clothing.
And sometimes these attitudes can be quite extreme. There is a man in the UK who has been in prison for years for indecent exposure. Every time he is released from prison, he strips off outside, and they call the police to re-arrest him.

I agree that this is true about human communities.
However, what each community chooses to affirm is important. Do they believe themselves to be the Master Race? Do they believe narcissistic creation fantasies? Do they assert an understanding of electricity, physics, evolution?
Only some of the above "principles" are true, regardless of what the community prioritises.
There's a difference between wanting to ban something because it is a threat to your autocracy and wanting to dissolve something because it is too powerful and abusive. Punching down vs punching up.
I think most people of that persuasion just want to break up large tech companies though, not ban them outright.
I don't mind, of course, but it goes to show that the whole thing is bogus and a different set of laws apply depending on how much money you have.
