Grew up dodging scores of it as they flew over our bass boat flying down the backwaters of the Mississippi. Twenty years ago I wouldn’t be able to find a single person who had ever eaten it and I’m not sure that’s any…
We are preventing development of serious disease with the vaccine. At the end of the day, that’s what should count.
Immunity to infection ≠ immunity to serious disease. The epitopes that drive long-lived memory are fairly well conserved.
You might be happy with something like VSCode + sourcekit-lsp once that combo gets more mature.
First, this proves that investment in drug discovery for all pandemic potential viruses, fueled by basic science research, needs to be a huge priority going forward. Imagine having antivirals on the shelf for the…
I recommend checking out Juan Browne’s video [1] that contrasts studies from the aviation world and one from the telecoms. Spoiler: the former brings more technical analysis than the latter. I’d love to know why the FAA…
This is a bit of a tangent, but this is emblematic of the fact that, beyond Xcode Cloud, the Apple Developer Tools team seems more excited to work on toys like Swift Playgrounds than make the Apple platform development…
Prosecuting FSD claims, historical or present, seems like a slam-dunk case for the FTC…
Understanding (confirmation?) of memory T cell immunity might also tamp down the popular concerns regarding waning / lowering of of circulating B antibody levels. It seems we’re champing at the bit to get boosters going…
Easy to scoff at an obvious headline, but SARS-CoV-2 may very well be endemic now. Going forward pandemic preparedness will no longer be reserved for the Fortune 5s or 50s. New construction for a while at least will…
It’s definitely a pro-social, social platform. It shows that you don’t have to rely on polarizing or adversarial content to drive engagement (_ cough, like Facebook & Twitter cough)
The moderation is a definite net positive. Though those with political viewpoints opposite a given user and anti-vaxxers have abused the stringent moderation to wantonly get videos taken down or users’ live stream…
Calico seems like a vestige of Larry’s Google. Hope Ruth doesn’t Loon it. https://killedbygoogle.com
It’s definitely a fount of creativity! Maybe it’s all the Gen Zers but it’s also the least toxic social network around. There’s so much joyful content there.
ISDN still must be in heavy use in radio. Sirius XM has been using hardware IP codecs since the pandemic began, and once a three hour show you might hear garbled audio for a few seconds.
No. The RNA still needs to be fit in a lipid nanoparticle which is Moderna and BioNTech’s secret sauce.
Manipulating the source code leads to invoking the Swift compiler to generate the information required to drive the rich editing experience. I have found SourceKit’s performance in complex projects, especially those…
It’s worth highlighting that a ton of basic science work went into mRNA vaccine development, starting in the early 1990s: - developing the lipid nanoparticles that the mRNA is delivered in, so your cells could actually…
To correct the quoted assertion... There is little selection pressure on the virus for the spike proteins to evolve and change. SARS-CoV-2 infects human cells just fine using its current spike protein. [1] [1]:…
Apple has done a nice job of adding a lot of power user functionality to iPadOS, and iOS in general, but discoverability remains a huge challenge. Multitasking is a kludgy set of gestures and dragging things around.…
Automation can also go very far in saving lives. We hear about fatal plane crashes in the news, but don’t really hear about the times that automation and computer systems catch or report a pilot overspending the…
It’s also subject to frequent corruption and conflicts in them are irritating to solve. +1 to Bazel - though it’s best suited for monorepos where you are building completely from source.
I feel more guilty about our usage of non-renewable, GHG-generating power sources like coal or natural gas power plants, and about driving around in my car (even though it’s electric). Aviation accounts for just 2% of…
Whenever I interview engineers, my main priority, beyond grasping whether they understand the stack they’ll be working with, is gauging how well they can work in an organization of fellow engineers, designers, and…
> The iMessage team for macOS Given Apple’s frenetic propensity to be extremely resource conscious, I doubt that team even exists any longer. There’s likely some larger messages team that is itching to replace that app…
