You cut the sentence in the middle: "though individuals who had received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine continued to be less likely to test positive for COVID-19, regardless of variant." Which does not mean the unvaccinated are more likely to get omicron like you originally claimed. Just that if they are infected it is more likely to be omicron. Which means the vaccine is less effective against omicron than other variants, which we already know.

.Net Core does not have the same API coverage as Mono. So some things are available, while others are not. (I think) Mono is integrating things from the open source parts of .Net, but you still have areas where you might be using something that isn't available in Core but is with Mono (non-win) or the full framework (on windows).

You are correct. You can also look at it as if I am going to unbundle, why would I need a cord? We (essentially) have a pipe from the internet to our TVs now, so just use that cord for the individual things you want. Maybe the author has that perspective, even if the terminology is incorrect.

Unfortunately, there are not many companies that make a living from the 4th & 5th. The gun companies stand to lose a good bit on 2nd amendment issues so they help fund the NRA.

Gives back a list of interesting people.

Not that I think it matters if you use Vim or anything particular for that matter.

There are two MS "JET" database implementations. One that runs access, and then this one. I think this one is commonly referred to as JET blue. The Access one is called JET Red. This is outlined in the wikipedia article linked in the parent.

"When life hands you lemons, make lemonade."

I thought the same thing. The unknown that I came up with was distribution channels. How would I get these great calendars that I created into the hands of the people? Certainly not unsolvable, but much more work and much more risk (up front capital) than just creating a calendar.

Besides a .Clear(), wouldn't the second most obvious be to have a count variable external to the loop that is initialized to the number of tabs before entering the loop? Then you still count up, and are able to reach the end of the list.

Either way, we have just come up with 3 much clearer solutions in what I would guess is at most 5 minutes between us. I would guess we have the luxury of it not being 9pm at night and working for our jobs. I was happy to see the author include note of that rather than just call the original programmer an idiot for not knowing how to write maintainable code.

The key thing that it looks like he is doing is using heredocs and string interpolation to change the way the HTML for the template is written. This is cool, but in my opinion the wrong place for HTML. I think the support of script tags with type=text/x-jquery-tmpl and an id are a better option than HTML in a string variable (http://api.jquery.com/template). At least then I feel like I am writing HTML in the right spot.

I Reflectored Reflector once and I found that the source was obfuscated. I don't think that would be a trivial task.

Although I am sure there is the opportunity for this kind of depravity among sea captains, for the majority of them it was probably a crime of convenience. It is easy to say "he is a criminal, let him die." It is much more difficult to say "I am going to take a free man from his life in order to make an incremental amount more in my business."

A sealed record of the number of prisoners on departure.

I have often thought that lua would make the perfect addition for client side scripting. There are some annoying bits of lua, but it seems like a compelling alternative to me.

It is probably personal bias, but I find this article lacking. I tutor once a week in a GED class and find there is definitely value for the students outside of the GED itself. My main responsibility is to help the students develop their math literacy. Sure, they might not use the Pythagorean theorem once they get out of class, but you can be sure that they will use the knowledge they gain about percentages the next time they buy something on sale. There are literally hundreds of examples where, IF the student takes the time to learn a concept, they will be able to apply it in their life regardless of whether or not they actually get the GED or not.

(Note: I tutor at a community center and not in a prison, so this probably changes the demographic a bit.)

There are people (who keep this stuff confidential) to talk to though. You have to pay them and it can be difficult to find one that just doesn't want to blame the past instead of helping you move forward. But these people do exist and are helpful. I suggest finding someone who knows something about cognitive behavioral therapy.

I agree with a sibling comment here that it is vital to talk through these things. If you can't trust your friends, first find someone else to talk to and then find some new friends.

If you look closely when it is folded, it only has one.

And I wonder how many of those that realize are willing to change their lifestyle based on that knowledge? To be honest, I am not doing my part.

In this case I would say the goal is improved user experience through further contact with the author. As in, how can I increase the ease of doing something that _I_ want the user to do? It is debatable whether this is actually improved experience, but I think that's how the UX people look at these things.

If we only measure ourselves (and our work) by the next best person, then only thing we can become is slightly better than them.

Instead of a registry hack (that SmartKeys does), I use Ctrl2Cap - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897578.asp.... I used to do the registry hack manually, but remember (although not specifically anymore) there were some issues with it not working at certain times or in certain programs.

I don't use emacs anymore, but still find that C-x, C-c, C-v, and C-anything is easier with this setup.

I would think it would be a feature matrix - you know features down the left column and the different apps across the top. It would be really useful to have a review of each app that explains how they might improve a particular feature, or how it is lack support for a feature in the list but how you can do it another way or something.

This is more of a subjective 'this is what works for me' review than an objective analysis of the various offerings. Not that worthwhile in my opinion. Try them each and see what works best for you - this article isn't going to help you much.

I would think that if both equals and hashCode are not implemented in a specific class, you would issue a warning like the parent says. I'm not sure of the details, but I assume you can disable warning for regions of code like you can in C#. So when you know you did things right, you can tell the compiler (and other coders that follow you) you know what you are doing. If you didn't do things right then the compiler reminds you to check things out. It's a win in both situations.

I think that the browser sandbox and SuperPreview serve different purposes. The sandbox will allow you to do the js checking, but SuperPreview allows you to look more at design elements through overlay and rulers. This is the same feature provided in Adobe browserlab (mentioned in another comment), but browserlab is currently closed to new users.

I really wanted to like this, and didn't mind the 250MB download, because I just got my coffee while it was downloading. But the first address I entered caused an error page about insufficient memory even though my system shows 800MB of free memory. It has a nice bug report facility, but wanted me to signup for Microsoft Connect in order to leave feedback. Which I did because I want this product to succeed. So a big "meh" overall on this one at this point.

This ignores the fact that there might be a fixed cost per book. If it is 10% of the current book price, then you are making no profit. Books don't just grow on trees. It also assumes that I have time for 10x as many books because they are cheaper. Currently, my time is more of a premium than my convenience or money.

I would agree. As an aside: Isn't the subservience part of what many employers are looking for? I think some are even looking for it legitimately. Of course those aren't the best place to work. I have always felt like there is a fine line to be walked here (as an employee).

I don't believe this is going to be a game changer for two reasons.

The first one is that the processor can't be that much of the total cost of a system. So these aren't going to be that much cheaper than a regular netbook unless they have a radical new form factor. If there is a new form factor, then it isn't really a netbook, is it?

The second is that it's all about software. Until we get to the point where everything is online, backward compatibility is still going to be very important and there are many things that people use that only run on windows. Or at least only on x86.

I wasn't responding to you directly. Your comment put forth the assertion that God said something. He didn't. It's not in the Bible and though some Christians claim it is true, that doesn't make it so. Sorry if I wasn't clear about that.

PS: You can't claim to pass over something while talking about it in a PS.
