He’s also put up a page with translations into Chinese, French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Persian and Turkish and a handy matrix at https://svr-sk818-web.cl.cam.ac.uk/keshav/wiki/index.php/HTR...

Why would Floridas numbers start to decrease if not for herd immunity? We know they aren’t being more careful. Disney land reopened and there is a police sheriff who literally made a rule that police officers and people going into the station were not allowed to wear masks.

This is idiotic. Rather than “herd immunity” one could, in fact, be seeing the impact of large numbers of people having been scared straight simply avoiding further contact.

The author’s conjecture could be correct but they offer no proof.

Which of these apps, if any, used the Google/Apple Privacy-Preserving Contact Tracing approach? Why didn’t the Times mention that? Did I miss it?

Credit for creativity but my hunch is the only people who will get money out of this are tax lawyers

“Yuval Levin is director of social, cultural, and constitutional studies at the American Enterprise Institute, editor of National Affairs, and a senior editor of The New Atlantis.” Useful context before the click.

More Modi-fake-news; you can't out-Xi Xi. Good luck guys.

Yep, they're the one that I've seen so far. Beautifully designed.

These daily updates on r/supplychain have been interesting and, from what I can see, well sourced: https://www.reddit.com/r/supplychain/comments/fbcc9h/covid19...

Mice clap don’t clap get clap Alzheimer’s.

They have neural plaques, artificially, chemically induced, that are coincident with Alzheimer’s in humans.

Crap. Open office cargo cult.

Payday Loan business. #savedyouaclick

Mice don’t get Alzheimer’s. Inducing plaques is not the same thing as giving mice Alzheimer’s.

That’s an amazing, if terrifying mini series that I finally watched earlier this year.

How will this play out as the workforce ages? Will Chinese employers engage with older tech workers more effectively than their U.S. counterparts? Or will they continue to be ageist and complain loudly about a talent gap?

Hacker News desperately needs a "Saved You a Click" feature.

What does that even mean?

To me that sounds optimistic. A bearish view would be that they limped to enough revenue to cover the costs of operating a solid recruiting and contest site; non recurring revenue of, say, $15MM without a strong growth or margin story.

Kaggle was a great recruiting play; given that Google bought them, and not a recruiting company, I would bet that this is an acquihire.

I agree; it would be great to hear from developers who've experimented with switching from macOS to Windows 10, and use Ubuntu userspace on Windows.

I switched about a month ago and, to be honest, I've been pleasantly surprised with Windows 10, with modern, top-of-the-line Windows hardware, and especially with Ubuntu on Windows.

Why announce this 3 months ahead of the scheduled opening?

Even when it comes to blowing up, Apple beats Samsung, hands down!

Correct headline is "The tragedy of the Arabs"; omitting the definite article makes the lede significantly more offensive :)

It's good to see Mountain View PD earning that overtime ;)

Someone should try using it with this: http://sicomail.com; automatically encrypts all of your incoming email.

Or you could use ettercap to redirect all DNS requests for any device on your local network. That's how I test iPhone, iPad, and Android applications when the services needed don't have DNS entries: http://joseph.by/post/83414951259/effectively-edit-hosts-fil...
