No, they are our ally. We stand with Ukraine because we stand against tyranny.
What decline in soft power?
Since the vast majority of truckers are not part of this far-right convoy, this would probably work just fine.

That's probably because of the Nazi and Confederate flags people are waving.
In my opinion, they should cry it out or quit given Canada's 1 dose vaccination rate is in the 80% range.

Still making more money than GCP and Azure (both of which are worse to use, IMHO) so...who cares?
The last mile distribution wasn’t well considered at all. Between tweets denying he lost the election he just said it would be up to the states to furnish last mile.
I think the subtext is some people associated systemd opposition to right wing politics (not fully unfounded if I understand) so the maintainers wanted to get out ahead of it when releasing another distro without systemd
I sympathize with the author but I find many of these arguments lack a middle ground for trade offs that ultimately neglect the fact that the situation today is vastly different from the situation in march 2020. We have pharmaceutical interventions and know how to treat and prevent COVID. There’s no excuse for 99.9% of schools to go to near normal or at minimum be in person.
The idea that the sole global superpower would be 59th is absolutely silly, no matter the metrics used.
I think this is a perfectly valid opinion, far more defensible than his take on Theranos' coverage.
I mean, he's right about that though, even if his opinion on Theranos was 100% wrong
> Because you have a better understanding of this than they do?
I think that the vast majority of doctors that have taken the vaccine to protect themselves are probably smarter than the tiny minority that have refused, yes.
I don't know any school districts that have permanently been doing distance learning (though some, stupidly, are doing another round of it because of the omicron surge) and I have not heard of any restaurant capacity restrictions in my very blue, COVID conscious city.
> The game plan should’ve been built around there non-compliance.
That is correct, and that's why they proposed the OSHA rule for mandating vaccinations after months of incentives. I think some % of non-compliance is understandable, but the remaining unvaccinated seem to be doing it for political reasons over anything else.
> As far as lockdowns are concerned, we have had the mass shutdown of in person school and work, as well as the forced closure of many restaurants and entertainment venues.
Right, we had those last year. Not since, in America at least.
I'd say "overkill" over ineffective. I do think that if all of these scientists were dying of the virus it was extremely ineffective, but thankfully they are not.
> How are we not prepared with a plan to end lockdowns?
We don't have lockdowns, and haven't had lockdowns in America
> And blaming unvaccinated or anti-maskers is not a good answer
Blaming the unvaccinated, who comprise the overwhelming majority of those that get hospitalized, spread it and die, is a good answer. I think a lot of this is solved by deprioritizing them at triage time or letting them recuperate at home.
In all honesty I don't want people uneducated or conspiracy-minded enough to not take the vaccine treating me anyway even in a shortage situation.
If they are vaccinated and boosted their health risks are minimal.
I’m curious now because I don’t recall the episode - what was the episode title?
This sounds like a weird rationalization for an absurd case of technical ignorance. Like when people defended nuking hurricanes or using UV lights as a Covid therapy.
It’s all liquid. Base was around 165 with a target bonus percentage.
Anything? Remote boot camp is mostly Menlo Park teams is what I heard.
I'm not very smart and have 3 years of experience, but I got an offer for $265k recurring/$315k first year a few months ago for a full-remote position. I'm fairly confident I could have negotiated it up, but I ended up going with a pre-IPO company (because I didn't want to deal with their bootcamp process).
That is a correct interpretation.
Doctors, police, nurses and home health aides directly harm the public they serve by not getting vaccinated. They are themselves more at risk to spread the virus in higher viral load quantities over longer periods of time and are more at risk of death themselves. They should be fired and not coddled for taking a stance against modern medicine.
> To be totally clear: your employer cannot require you to have a medical procedure, and then fire if you do not comply
They can, have, and should.
They are also using resources that should be utilized by people that have done the right thing and taken a vaccine to prevent hospitalization.
In my opinion, the unvaccinated should simply not go to the hospital if they get infected and instead recuperate at home. Sadly, they’ll continue to leech off of the work of those that have taken the bare minimum steps.
I think the unvaccinated should face reality, not be coddled.
I don’t know if that’s liberal or not. I don’t really care about the ideological underpinnings to know it’s an asinine incentive design.
Well, public schools are still free everywhere. And in state public universities are still fairly affordable - the one in my hometown offers $1k tuition for the year now.
