The paper you cited actually states that existing vaccines are less effective: “However, neutralization by 14 of the 17 most potent mAbs tested was reduced or abolished by either K417N, or E484K, or N501Y mutations.”

I had that thought, too. That’s the reason that stopped me from implementing sth like that. I think a definitive solution to a cat-and-mice game would be an automated reverse-engineering of the chat apps.

I guess it’s only a matter of time until Facebook et al fight the bridges in form of lawsuits and API changes. Some years ago Facebook’s chat was accessible via the Jabber protocol. I think they won’t like users switching away from their apps and miss the control and ad revenue.

Is anyone aware of an open source alternative for Kibana and Logstash (based on lucene)?

And cache build outputs: https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/remote-caching.html

It doesn’t IIRC. But, you can combine it with ccache which can use a NFS share. If you use clang, that might be of interest: https://github.com/yrnkrn/zapcc

Running it locally will always be faster as long as your machine is not a bottleneck (#cores, ram, ...). I think the use-case for distcc et al is to enable less-powerful machines to run builds faster by levering other machines. That’s exactly what we use it for at work. Our developers have not-so-powerful laptops and with distcc/icecc they can utilize the power of our build agents in the server room.

Also interesting to read: https://github.com/StanfordSNR/gg

1) It’s one of the biggest car manufacturers 2) It’s in the US 3) It’s in public roads (with a special testing permit and safety drivers)

UX design. Just looking at modern web tools like AWS, I don’t understand why they can’t make it a bit more intuitive.

Have you though about using a pseudonym instead of your real identity for this? My contract even forbids me to contribute to OSS. You can’t advertise with any of your OSS work on your CV though.

that video hits my uncanny valley

I can confirm this. We had to install virus scanners on our self-driving car Linux boxes which are disconnected from any networks... Fun part is that the AV scanner sometimes takes so much CPU time that the pedestrian detection algorithm fails and the car has an increased chances hitting them.

Is that a GPT-3 paper generator?

I stopped reading and started puking when I read “chip-to-cloud security”

Looking forward to all the bugs and problems this will cause. At least some over-sensitive ppl (or trolls?) will be happy. One more to add to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_name_changes_due_to_...

Free advertising for Github/Microsoft. Sweet. If they would fight for developers they should verify any takedown request imho.

missleading title. Not the build time was decreased by 99%. Only the git checkout step was.

Had to look up that word as a non-native speaker. Didn’t find anything but this article. Anyone ever heard of this term?

How do you prevent people stealing other’s ideas? I feel it’s risky to post your possibly-millions-worth business idea in the Internet.

The most important part to achieve this: Have a lot of luck

Pfff... beginners mistakes. There’s a TOR hidden service where you can trade insider information.

I see this everyday (before COVID) when my Indian colleagues go to lunch but don’t ask that one guy bc he’s from a lower cast.

Conspiracy theory: The US did it to piss of the EU against Russia. I strongly disbelieve that the Kremlin is that stupid. There are way easier ways to kill someone without leaving a big red sign like an UDSSR poison. Ofc I don’t have any proof, but that’s why they call it a conspiracy theory, right? :)

security by obscurity - The companies detecting deepfakes will certainly not publish their methods/networks.

I want to see Java on mission critical computers in space!

The obligatory xkcd: https://xkcd.com/927/

Why doesn’t Apple sell mechanical camera covers for a tremendous amount of money!

Even better: Don’t use bash. I started using Python instead of bash. It’s way better to read and more maintainable. If I need the performance of native-Unix commands, I can still use them using subprocess.

so... why google and not a privacy-concerning alternative?

My first thought: oh no. M$ likes Rust and will probably contribute and demolish it. Just look at the Github system status history since M$ took over. Or Azure, Windows 10, ...
