I think two things are being confounded here: (1) places most likely to contain people with COVID; and (2) places most likely enable COVID to infect someone. Many people go to supermarkets; they’re like central hubs in a network. It doesn’t

I don't live in Sweden so I can't claim to be an expert (I like in the UK), but I find it highly unlikely that your claim of a 61% tax rate in Sweden is correct. It's likely the highest tax rate possible (in the UK that'

Maybe that's just poor documentation on the author's part. If you simply try and go get the package (running Go 1.5 here): ~ $ go get -u github.com/otoolep/syslog-gollector warning: code.google.com is shutting do

Without meaning to sound snarky or anything, isn’t there something else at work if you have to externally block sites to stop you procrastinating? I would have thought getting to the root cause of your “HN addiction” would probably be a bet

Maybe I'm missing something, but do people actually see Twitter Cards in general? I mean, how many regular Twitter users actually use the web interface to interact with Twitter? I don't know anyone that doesn't use a third-party client. And

Hi, machine learning PhD here - one way you can start is by brushing up on some fundamentals. A book such as Machine Learning, by Thom M. Mitchell is a reasonable start. Also, in terms of applying ML, you could scoot through Andrew Ng's Mac
