CrowdStrike wasn't hacked. Their mess was entirely their fault. What I have a problem with is blaming developers when hackers break into a system using some vulnerability. Can you sue Master Lock when thieves use bolt cutters to break into your shed?
So: if you are a young woman, and know you have a 1 in a million chance to die to stroke if you take the vaccine, are you gonna take it?
Hmm...using US statistics, death rate from covid is about 0.14%. So, no vaccine, chance of death is 0.14%. Take the vaccine (assuming 1 in a million chance of death), chance of death is 0.0001%.
Yeah, that's a tough one alright. 0.14% vs 0.0001%...which to choose....
Or are you, by chance, trying to suggest that young women are, in general, idiots?
In my age group and location the chance of dying if I get Covid is something like 5%, while my chance of going to jail if I knock off a CVS is 2%. That makes it an easy one. Especially since everyone is wearing hoodies and masks right now.
The governments that made the decision to put AZ on hold were being advised by scientists.
So either the scientists said hold it, or the politicians decided to against their advice. Going against the scientific advice could look bad when each country comes to review its response, usually through some kind of public enquiry.
Either there is some data we aren't seeing that has lead scientists to a temporary pause for further investigation, or politicians are being overly cautious. My guess is the former, and in a few days they will announce that a review has cleared it.
Politician: Is it conceivably possible that the vaccine is responsible for clotting?
Scientist (sweating): Conceivably possible? Err. maybe
Politician: OK, shut it down.
I agree that quantum theory is pro-simulation evidence. The idea that the Universe updates in discrete steps based on probability? Hmm. The world is just a complex version of Conway's Life.
It would also be interesting to find out whether anything they've learned has actually led to a conviction, or whether they are just scooping up lots of information on the theory that it might be useful.
There's luck, and there's luck you make. Here's DrDrunkenstein (Carlsen's speed chess name) beating a GM after losing his Q on move 10. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Why would I run a Linux desktop? Windows 10 makes a great platform for running Cygwin-X so that I can log into a real OS. All my programming and development is done on Linux seamlessly with business apps like Outlook and Excel.
“The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.”
First the first is twice as first.
I was going to blast you for bringing up a company that's long gone, but turns out that it is not: atari games

I used to be Management and hated it. I was hospitalized from stress once. I was willing to take a $30K pay cut to be a software engineer. 8 years later have not regretted it.
The other reason is that oppressive governments can block, filter or record DNS over TLS, but DNS over HTTPS will be buried in the traffic.
Firefox DOH is configurable and disabled by default. You can enable it under Network Settings.
Lots of IP addresses support multiple websites. If you don't see the DNS request, you don't know which one is being accessed.
I cannot draw a cart, nor eat dried oats; If it be man's work I will do it.
