No. I was responding to the fact that JHU's website is absurdly resource intensive and it takes ages to look at anything on it.

Microsoft to require proof of vaccination from on-site staff, pushes back full reopening
The Vatican sky fairy is very much in favour of vaccination, and while there are no official figures, as far as I can see, the Vatican has given out more doses of vaccine per head of population than any oher country in the world. Gibraltar leads the official figures with 116% of the population vaccinated. Vatican looks like it is somewhere in the order of 500% to 1000%.

I'm feeling lucky: Google, Facebook say workers must be vaccinated before they return to offices
Re: Liability
From starting the research to vaccinating everyone is going to take, best case scenario, about 2 years. That's with two doses. For one dose, maybe you could do it in 18 months. That is using venues which would normally be used for other things. Not a problem in the case of coronavirus, because those other things can't restart until everyone is vaccinated anyway, but it would be a problem for a flu vaccine deployment.
Even so, 18 months is way too long for a successful flu vaccine deployment; so that's why I'm not sure it is viable.
Re: Liability
One of my qualifiers is “there is a vaccine available”.
Flu vaccines exist, yes, but is it possible to produce and administer enough in the required time frame to cover the whole population? If it is, then I would support doing it. Otherwise the limited resources have to be targeted where they are most effective.
Re: Liability
"Should I be vaccinated against every disease that could kill someone, just in case I pass them on too?"
Generally speaking, yes.
If, it is an infectious disease, there is a vaccine available, and the disease is in active circulation where you are.
Probably no need to get the Ebola vaccine if you aren't in a place where it is active and you aren't planning to visit such a place.
I don't think they do smallpox vaccinations any more, because it has been eradicated from the planet, thanks to vaccines.

HP Inc slurps Teradici to get better at delivering remote PCs
Having read various articles elsewhere on this site, I would be extremely nervous about selling my company to HP.
We have RPD for remote desktop access. That's what most people use. I'm sure if I asked people here what the problems with it are, they would be able to come up with something.
Does Teradici solve any of these problems? Would people be willing to pay whatever it is they are charging to have these problems solved? Does it introduce any new problems which might discourage people from going wtih this solution. How does it compare with the other alternatives to RDP? Does the expected and actual revenues justify the price paid for the company?

Re: Optimised in compiler
Or, it takes someone like Apple to sucessfully migrate to a new CPU architecture. They've managed it 3 times.
If Microsoft do manage to switch over to ARM, and get the rest of the developer base to move with them, it will most likely be due to lots of people wanting to run Windows in Mac virtual machines.

Why are they picking on Google?
Unlike Apple, you can install alternative app stores on Android, and you can sideload apps that you obtain directly.
Gambling apps used to be, and possibly still are, distributed this way, because Google wouldn't (doesn't?) allow them on their store.
[edit] I checked, they are now available on the Play Store. They weren't at one point.

The UK is running on empty when it comes to electric vehicle charging points
Maybe, but most of the miles driven in Britain are driven by people with high mileage, and most vehicles on the road at any given time are vehicles that do high mileage.
That's what matters, not what the average person does. I mean the average person doesn't even own a car. 32.7m cars in the UK, Population is 66.7m. Some people own more than one car.
I don't refuel every time I visit Tesco, whereas I think if I had an electric car, I would refuel more often.
Usually I go to an Asda that is just off the motorway between home and work to refuel.
My point is, with the current market share of electric cars, which is very small, 3 were using the chargers on a very quiet evening, so if I went there at a busy time, probably 4 chargers isn't enough for even current demand.
"The issue is not so much the general lack of charging points as there are more chargers than petrol stations already."
1. Petrol stations typically have more than 1 pump. My local suburban petrol station has 8. My local supermarket has 16.
2. Petrol pumps push out 50 litres per minute, which means that most people do their "charging" in less than a minute, or maybe a few seconds over. The rest of the time is driving into position, unlocking the cap, puting the nozzle in place, removing it, locking the cap, and paying, which is pretty much the same for an electric charing session. But, there is no way you could charge your car in a minute. You would need something in the order of a 10MW charger to do that. Tesla superchargers put out 150kW. Other chargers are a lot less. The ones at my local Tesco are 7kW.
"It's just been announced that as many as 800 Shell electric vehicle charging points are to be installed in up to 100 Waitrose shops across the UK by 2025."
1. Note the use of the words "as many as", and "up to". Both mean "less than".
So, less than 8 charging points per Waitrose. My local Tesco has 4 charging points, and about 500 parking spaces, and the aforementioned 16 petrol pumps. Last time I visited, on a very quiet evening when it was not at all busy, 3 of those charging points were in use. If we want to go all-electric, then all of the parking spaces need to be charging points. That would requite a huuuuuuuuuuuuge upgrade in the mains supply capacity to the store.

Reserve Bank of India official suggests country may soon have a digital currency pilot
Hong Kong already has a digital currency? It is called the Octopus Card. It is mostly used on public transport, but last time I was there, about 7 years ago, you could also spend it in places like 7 Eleven.
You could put it on Apple Pay, maybe they already have, Japan did it with their equivalent.
UKRI denies pulling funding from Newport Wafer Fab over Chinese ownership concerns
Sure, but we are talking about something that Intel discontinued 20 years ago;. Obviously others used it for longer, and some still do. Apparently Newport's output is mostly used to produce power management chips for cars, and I guess there would be zero benefit from moving them to a 5nm process node as the 180nm chips work just fine. But, I'm sure the Chinese are capable of producing power management chips that are just as good as ours. If you want them in a factory in Wales, shipping from China might most more than the actual product.
Subcontractors working on CityFibre's £45m Derby rollout threaten to 'rip up tarmac' in dispute over payments
I suppose the cronic shortage of materials for the workers to work on is disguising the fact that if the materials were present on all currently active sites, you wouldn't be able to find enough workers.
Of corse the cronic shortage of materials is due to a cronic shortage of workers further up the supply chain.
