India. It is an enigma that why is India's response to Covid-19 gets ignored. India to date has vaccinated more people than Israel and has one of the least CFR per capita.
Now I will get downvotes from India, but let's try:
It is percent of population that matters not absolute number of vaccinated people. Israel is near 70%, while India is only 0.5% [1].
CFR per capita, while looks good (113.97 deaths per million) is not actually good compared to Mongolia (0.62 deaths per million)[2]. You know, who else is doing well - Belarus (195.31 deaths per million). I don't believe Belarus numbers as all countries around are burning (500+ deaths per million). Could it be that India is faking it as well? Based on corruption index [3] it is even worse than Belarus.
> It is percent of population that matters not absolute number of vaccinated people. Israel is near 70%, while India is only 0.5% [1].
Which is more commendable considering the vastness of the land itself. Israel == Delhi and surrounding reasons.
Given the economic parameters of the country, it has better CFR than US, Italy, Germany and UK. Thats pretty amazing considering the health expenditure and wealth of US, Italy, Germany, UK is enormously high than India.
As when number fudging that is not happening.You can look at data from independent foreign houses stationed in India.
Very proud of the great success of India here. Was very worried they would have a calamity but they have managed it better than anyone else in my opinion
I wanted to try zstd for a rust based application running as on Android. The cross-compilation and integration left me in pain and I am stuck with `zlib` which is also great IMHO.
I'll note that zlib and gzip are approximately the same, with the same algorithm under the hood (`deflate`) but different framing. But if it's working well for your use-case, that's all that really matters - especially over having to deal with C interop.
Super easy, they just have very, very few old people. Different population pyramids. Hence low fatality ratio. And low prevalence is just because vast majority of people are young and have it asymptomatically.
It may also play a role that asymptomatic carriers have lower chance of transmitting infection, so R0 in those countries is lower.
I work for a company dominated by non CS . They brought in contractor since the contractor's CEO is a good talk. This contractor is full of full-stack JS devs. Now we have their ideas implemented on edge devices. Noice.
Edge devices are usually those operating on the edge of your network, topologically speaking (e.g. end-user devices which only have one connection to the network).
Noice is just an awkwardly phoneticized spelling of the word nice intended to convey a sarcastic tone.

True

You are wrong here, mate. If borrow checker prevents mass adoption, I am okay with that. I have dabbled enough problems in poorly written code by "full stack" developers who write code by combining different blog-posts from Medium without any thoughts to underlying memory model, that I am happy that some language feature prevents these folks to take up a Language.
