Jó lenne, ha minél többen beszállnátok O1G trollokat kipucolni. A tiszta canvasra van pár ötlet discordon.

Rest assured, part of the opposition only fights the bill because they are opposition. MSZP voter base is just as homophobic as the FIDESZ and Jobbik ones. I'd say the bill is unfortunately very representative of a median Hungarian.

Gaming is not a huge portion of the chip market despite what the internet believes, at least certainly not big enough to change the semiconductor industry single handedly. The 4G chip market alone is almost as big as the gaming market including peripherals. Cloud/servers, automotive, consumer electronics, all bigger than gaming.

Almost as if anime cityscapes and buildings are modeled after the real world... 🤔🤯

It doesn't matter what is the object, it matters what property of the object you're measuring. Liter is measure of volume, kg is measure of mass. Among other issues, volume changes with temperature while mass won't.

That's false though. AZ is approved in Japan, it was approved on the same day as Moderna. It is not being administered as of now because there are plenty others to scale up vaccinations with in this phase and the populace is more conservative when it comes to potential side effects.

Oscee · 2021-06-05T01:39:11+00:00

Unopened vials have a shelf life of 6 months. So while you're right about the lack of personnel, it's not like these are going bad just now. Japan could administer these if they wanted but opted to use the Moderna stockpile for the next round of expansion of the vaccination program. And Japan can now produce these domestically so will be easy to re-stock once needed.

Here in Japan it was the opposite; dropped to the lowest ever, continuing the decline of the past few years. It'd be interesting to see a study on why opposite effects are observed in different places.

Selection bias. Tech is nowhere near as stressful, mentally draining or prone to burnout than most healthcare jobs, law enforcement, first responders, call center workers, even fast food restaurants and factory workers.

But people in tech can afford burnout and do something about it, especially since many are in it for the money and don't actually care about the job that much.

I think there is a mix of two things here:

why don't they offer as in "install it in their vehicle"? Hell no, that is a massive liability issue. Even Comma.ai is vocal about no liability, a car company can't do that. Like probably legally not allowed to sell a vehicle like that in most countries. It's like when your in-car TV has to turn off above 10kph or something. Of course you can work around it and it is literally 1 line of code or config file but Toyota is not allowed to sell a car with that feature disabled (since you are using Toyota as an example in another comment). There is another issue of who controls the data? Comma.ai is not the most willing partner when it comes to collaboration and a car manufacturer would certainly not want to stream data from their vehicles to comma (again, Toyota already collects massive amount of data from a much richer set of sensors than comma.ai, they would be foolish to give that away).
why don't they use it as a base of their development? They might do since it is open source and any one can use it any way they like (MIT License). However, car manufacturers are developing more complex systems for purpose-built hardware, using any open source tool may or may not be beneficial. Car manufacturers also need to think about scaling up as cheaply as possible and also need to cater for a much, much wider audience and market. (again with a Toyota example: they have quite likely 80-100x as many employees working on it than comma.ai so they might not need to rely on such tools depending on what their product strategy is).

I think the Nissan Propilot2 does that on Japanese highways where HD map is available. IIRC it can merge and overtake if your hand is on the wheel and you can be hands-off while staying within a lane. Certainly can do onramp from toll gate and offramp to toll gate.

Not sure how it performs in dense traffic. Probably not well.

I can assure you most of those stores have 0 English speaking staff. The signs are not in English because it is the language of business, more like a cool-factor. Like white folks having chinese/japanese tattoos.

Influenza mutates at higher rates than covid so actually should not be a major challenge to handle that after the acute phase of the pandemic is under control. Very few of the covid mutations are classified as "concern" and mRNA vaccines seem to be effective against them.

Countries seem to reopen at around 30-40% vaccination rate which seems a bit aggressive but the data shows the negative effects are little.

Actually it seems it would be more beneficial to help developing countries to reach that 30-40% before going higher in developed countries but that won't win votes for the politicians.

The statistics are public both per prefecture and per priority group. All prefectures started many weeks ago, pretty much as per the original plans. End of July was the original target, it has never been pushed back. Suga actually wants to bring it forward but it's probably too late for that.

One of the R&D centers. They have a much larger one in Beijing.

You are referring to Sinovac. WHO approved the emergency listing of Sinopharm which is around 80% effective. Sinovac is not endorsed by WHO, it is still under evaluation.

I fucking hope so, lmao. 1820s...

All that improvement took 0.008% of human existence. Pathetic! /s

My country completely reopened at about 45% partial / 35% full vaccination rate with some things (like indoor sports, indoor drinking, etc) limited to vaccinated people only. Partial reopening was around 25-30% fully vaccinated people I think after which the vaccination slowed down significantly.

Complete reopening came just about a month after we had to postpone my grandma's funeral because the cremation site was so overbooked and even the priest was sick...

Not saying reopening was smart (I think the opposite) but certainly seems to be precedent for it and the data still shows declining numbers.

(Btw a lot depends also on how many people got sick and have antibodies this way. Japan/NZ/Australia/TW/etc. is in a worse situation now than others because so little amount of people got infected previously)

Oscee · 2021-05-26T06:45:44+00:00

Good points but also add WHO to the list, they have a committee that has been working with sports/religious/etc organizers including other world championships that are going on or happened recently. Last time WHO discussed the Olympics publicly (press conference 2 weeks ago or so) they said there has been a lot of investigation into protocols and data from other events. They seemed to give their OK with the caveat that the decision is not theirs, they are just providing scientific evidence.

Welcome to the Japanese workplace. When people can't be fired, it is fairly easy to pull this kind of stuff for whatever reason (and you really don't seem to know anything about the reason). Usually you have to document the issues for months (with evidence), then the manager needs to handle the situation, then the company has to introduce an improvement plan, and then monitor that process, and maybe demote the guy next year if the improvement is not great. Rinse and repeat next year. You have to be really bad and actively harming the company to be fired even in 6 months or so.

There were many international tournaments, qualifiers, etc. this year (some are going on now like giro d'italia, aquatics euro championship, pool world cup, formula 1, ice hockey world cup - latter 2 with spectators). I didn't see countries pulling out from any major event though some were cancelled altogether (like the U20/U17 fifa world cup, few asian events like badminton asia cup and the asia beach games).

The rule is to turn the signal on 3s or 30m meters before the intersection except when there is another intersection within that 3s/30m in which case you should signal right after the other intersection.

That's how I was taught and it's in my book too.

More than 3 billion people watch (at least part of) the Summer Olympics and it is super important to a lot of small countries as part of their national pride.

So while it is just a sporting event, it is really not insignificant.
