Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly ties coronavirus outbreak to pregame meal, vomiting player
Notre Dame will resume team practices Wednesday after reporting 18 positive coronavirus tests on Monday, but the program has changed the way it will eat its pregame meals and will now have rapid antigen tests available on the sideline because of lessons learned from their outbreak, coach Brian Kelly told ESPN on Tuesday.
Kelly said team doctors determined that the outbreak, which resulted in 25 players in isolation and 14 others in quarantine, stemmed from two events surrounding the Sept. 19 game against South Florida: eating their pregame meal together, and one player who threw up on the sideline during the game and was treated for dehydration.
Kelly said the change in routine from summer camp to game week revealed new challenges that could have only been discovered with the start of the season.
"Throughout our entire time together, we had not had one meal where we sat down together," Kelly said. "Everything was grab and go. We get into our game situation where we have pregame meal together, and that cost us. Big. We had somebody who was asymptomatic, and it spread like wildfire throughout our meeting area where we were eating and then it got guys in contact tracing."

Don't underestimate WhatsApp. That shit is huge in the Spanish-speaking community, and its even worse than Facebook.
WhatsApp IS facebook, just with a different mask on. FB bought them back in 2014

Hey, I get it. Y’all hate Trump. Guess what, I think he is disgusting as well and will vote for a to be determined write in candidate. But don’t act like Biden is the answer to any question other than “who else is running for President and not named Trump”. You are either utterly and completely full of shit, disingenuous, or stupid beyond all reason if you think Biden is fit to be President...or maybe all three.
Two old fucks are running and one of them will be president. I want the one who can ride a bike, could probably walk down a ramp without assistance, and who I won't worry about withdrawing from NATO and nuking Germany because Angela Merkel hurt his feelings to be president.

That's not the issue at play. Using JavaAPI for compatility with Java is fair use.
Appeals court found the opposite actually, on the narrow (and IMO, specious) point that Google copied function and class declarations, which as we have covered at length are a purely functional and non-creative interface.
"We do not conclude that a fair use defense could never be sustained in an action involving the copying of computer code."

Back on topic:
QuoteBenjamin Jong Ren Hung, 28, is charged with conspiring to transport firearms across state lines and to make a false statement in acquisition of firearms. A judge on Monday decided to keep him detained without bail and Hung will not be released from federal custody.
Hung allegedly drove his white Dodge Ram adorned with flags associated with far-right extremist groups at the crowd of about 150 protesters in Pasadena who had been chanting "Black lives matter here" on May 31, federal agents allege in a complaint filed in Los Angeles federal court.
The demonstrators scattered as the truck accelerated toward them, and no injuries were reported in the incident. Hung was arrested by Pasadena police for attempted assault with a deadly weapon.
During a search of the vehicle, police found a loaded semiautomatic handgun, multiple high-capacity magazines loaded with ammunition, an 18-inch machete, $3,200 in cash, a long metal pipe and a megaphone, the complaint states.
The complaint alleges Hung acquired the handgun from a friend who purchased it in Oregon and then took it to Lodi, California for Hung.
Federal investigators say Hung was collecting weapons and turning his family's Lodi vineyard into a training camp.
"Hung purchased and then transported at least three firearms from Oregon to Lodi, California in March 2020. Hung also amassed other firearms and tactical equipment from suppliers throughout the United States and used his family's vineyard in Lodi, California as a training camp to prepare to engage in civil disorders.
"Hung communicated frequently with associates about creating this tactical training camp and firearms range at his family's vineyard in Lodi, California, and his intent to use the firearms in preparation for civil disorders," the complaint states.
The messages appeared to escalate in early March at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the far-right movement began to propagate the theory that the virus was a hoax, the document states.
According to bystander video and witness interviews, Hung's truck bore an Oregon license plate that read, "WAR R1G,'' prosecutors said. It was also modified with an elevated suspension, large tires, and an enhanced exhaust pipe, which expelled a large plume of black smoke as it accelerated into the crowd, the complaint states.
At the time of the incident, the truck was also flying three large flags: a Thin Blue Line'' flag, a Gadsden Don't Tread on Me'' yellow flag, and an original 13 states Betsy Ross'' American flag, prosecutors said.
Sure does seem to be an awful lot of overlap between the "self defense" and "max mad" crowd lately. Weird that they profess to love cops and law and order but keep breaking federal firearms laws and driving cars into crowds of protesters.

Small update: the AG's office will release recordings of the GJ deliberations.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A juror in the Breonna Taylor case contends that the Kentucky attorney general misrepresented the grand jury’s deliberations and failed to offer the panel the option of indicting the two officers who fatally shot the young woman, according to the juror’s lawyer.
The unnamed juror filed a court motion on Monday seeking the release of last week’s transcripts and permission from a judge to speak publicly to set the record straight. Hours later, the office of Attorney General Daniel Cameron granted both requests, saying that the juror is free to speak and that recordings of the session will be made public.

I won't speak for what the dev community thinks/understands because sometimes what the dev community thinks about a legal issue is divorced from reality.
Funnily enough, the same can be said of lawyers and judges who don't understand what they're arguing over lol.
An overly broad ruling (from Roberts?? Never!) will irreversibly damage the creative, collaborative, and derivative nature of software development. It may not change anything, but it gives a green light AND a mechanism for copyright and patent trolls to bleed software companies dry. If you don't think Larry Ellison and his army of lawyers known as "Oracle" aren't going to do just that, then I have a bridge to sell you.
I agree that Google did not do this the right way, but neither did Oracle. And neither are really all that good of actors in the space regarding IP.
Is there a "cut the baby in half" option I wonder?

Any idea what this is about? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nkhxCZkJb7_9wgJuYXBn3acxcC7tOebx/view Grand juror asking for grand jury evidence to be made public. I didn't even know you could ask for that. My best guess is the juror realized after serving on the jury that the prosecutors misled them/held back evidence.
NBC picked up the story, seems like a grand juror is actually calling bullshit
A member of the grand jury in the Breonna Taylor case filed a motion in Louisville, Kentucky, on Monday to have the sealed grand jury transcripts and records released "so that the truth may prevail."
The motion, filed in Jefferson County five days after the jury’s decision was announced, also asks that the jurors be allowed to speak on the case as a matter of public interest, according to the petition.
In the petition, an attorney on behalf of the anonymous juror notes that Kentucky Attorney General David Cameron made public statements that “attempted to make it very clear that the grand jury alone made the decision.”
“The citizens of this Commonwealth have demonstrated their lack of faith in the process and proceedings in this matter and the justice system itself,” the filing said. “Using the grand jurors as a shield to deflect accountability and responsibility for these decisions only sows more seeds of doubt in the process while leaving a cold chill down the spines of future grand jurors.”

It is pretty nuts how many problems we could solve (on paper at least) if we had a USA version of GDPR. These intricate voter suppression and propaganda efforts wouldn't be able to microtarget to get off the ground

Channel 4 News has exclusively obtained a vast cache of data used by Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign on almost 200 million American voters.
It reveals that 3.5 million Black Americans were categorised by Donald Trump’s campaign as ‘Deterrence’ – voters they wanted to stay home on election day.
Tonight, civil rights campaigners said the evidence amounted to a new form of voter “suppression” and called on Facebook to disclose ads and targeting information that has never been made public.
The ‘Deterrence’ project can be revealed after Channel 4 News obtained the database used by Trump’s digital campaign team – credited with helping deliver his shock victory to become president four years ago.
Vast in scale, it contains details on almost 200 million Americans, among more than 5,000 files, which together amass almost 5 terabytes of data – making it one of the biggest leaks in history.
It reveals not only the huge amounts of data held on every individual voter, but how that data was used and manipulated by models and algorithms.
In 16 key battleground states, millions of Americans were separated by an algorithm into one of eight categories, also described as ‘audiences’, so they could then be targeted with tailored ads on Facebook and other platforms.
One of the categories was named ‘Deterrence’, which was later described publicly by Trump’s chief data scientist as containing people that the campaign “hope don’t show up to vote”.
Analysis by Channel 4 News shows Black Americans – historically a community targeted with voter suppression tactics – were disproportionately marked ‘Deterrence’ by the 2016 campaign.
In total, 3.5 million Black Americans were marked ‘Deterrence’.

You're in the legal arena right now where words matter. They create precedents that have meaning to other lawyers if not to programmers.
I'm not sure how a narrow ruling on the concept of API's would have more impact on lawyer than on programmers lol. Yall will find something else to generate billable hours off of if not this. Allowing Oracle to assert an intrinsic copyright over the idea of the declarative structure to pass information is a ridiculously over-broad and dangerous precedent. It would fundamentally break the modern software world.
EDIT: and I appreciate you answering my question - IMHO you do not have modern software development experience, and your lack of knowledge (or reading the recommended technical background section, which it seems like you still haven't) is why you don't get it.
