Four bit binary converted to integer, though 4 bit bytes are also tty (teletype) code and the first 64 characters of 8 bit ascii.

Edit: me fug up it's 7 bit bytes to come up with 128 permutations used by teletype and email, the first 128 characters of ascii

You're right, knucklehead.


The talking heads on this site pounce on the naive pea-brains.


You certainly know what to expect. :lol:

Just get vaccinated and protect the kids from the new more lethal variants, it will be awhile before they are protected and they will depend on responsible adults who care. The Brazilian variant is a kid and infant killer, 1,300 babies died of it in Brazil already with many more to come.

1111 1111 is FF in hex

I worked with HP2116B mainframes in 1982- they were programmed in octal so the highest number was 7
I used a similar HP mainframe for data entry and time keeping functions back in the 80's, never dealt with the mainframe, just the dumb terminals. Back in them days only genuine nerds entered the airconditioned room and if the AC went down it wasn't long before the mainframe did.

Dr. John Campbell has been providing reliable pandemic news and analyses since this shit started and has a PhD in public health. He explains the risks and benefits of vaccination with the latest data broken down so mere morals can understand it. He's worked in undeveloped nations, teaches and is the author of several medical texts.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Infections and deaths after vaccination

Vaccinated people who become infected = 5,800
About 1 in 13,275
At least 14 days after their final dose
Asymptomatic, 29%
Required hospitalization = 396 (1 in 194,444)
Deaths = 74 (1 in 1,040,540)
CDC currently investigating factors

May be more cases to report due to reporting lag
From 77 million fully vaccinated
(Fully vaccinated as of today = 80.6 million)

From trials

Pfizer/BioNTech, 95% effective in preventing symptomatic disease
Moderna, 94% effective in preventing symptomatic illness
Johnson & Johnson, 72% from US data
Characteristics of breakthroughs so far
40% of the infections were in people 60 or more
65%, were female

CDC is monitoring reported cases for clustering by patient demographics, geographic location, time since vaccination, vaccine type or lot number, and SARS-CoV-2 lineage

CDC also continues to recommend people who have been fully vaccinated should keep taking precautions in public places, like wearing a mask, staying at least six feet apart from others, avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces, and washing their hands often

Dr. Carlos del Rio, Emory University School of Medicine
Less transmission means fewer breakthrough cases
There is currently a lot of transmission in many parts of the country
Vaccines will help decrease that
Get vaccinated as soon as you can and help control this pandemic

National Institutes of Health Director Dr Francis Collins
Allow more time for scientists to investigate links between the vaccine and blood clots
and whether or not certain groups of people are more susceptible

India, double mutation variant emerge

Hey john thanks for the update. I am from Delhi, India and I have contracted the virus. Situation in India is very bad. Most of the hospitals are already exhausted and many people are dying without treatment.

The India variant, B.1.617

E484Q and L452R

First reported in India, late 2020

Aparna Mukherjee, Indian Council of Medical Research

has not been stamped as a ‘variant of concern’ so as to say that it is more lethal or more infectious

But

...

Very low prevalence in January

April, 52% of samples sequenced

Maharashtra state, 60%

Has been detected in 10 other countries, US, UK (77 cases) Australia and New Zealand

(L452 from US data, 20% more transmissible, reduces antibody efficacy by more 50%)

William A. Haseltine, former professor, Harvard Medical School

The B.1.617 variant has all the hallmarks of a very dangerous virus

We must do all that is possible to identify its spread and to contain it

Brazil

...

Trying to get more drugs from Spain

Rio de Janeiro, health-care workers forced to intubate patients without sedatives

Mechanical restraints and neuromuscular blockers

Doctors Without Borders

More than 12 months into Brazil’s covid-19 emergency, there is still no effective, centralized and coordinated public health response to the outbreak

The lack of political will to adequately respond to the pandemic is killing Brazilians in their thousands

From the article:
"A breakthrough infection is defined as a positive COVID-19 test taken more than two weeks after finishing a vaccine course. Such cases are very infrequent, thanks to the astonishing effectiveness of the available coronavirus vaccines. Instances like Washington's, in which someone requires hospitalization or dies, are even more rare.

As of April 12, South Carolina's health department said it had identified 155 cases of breakthrough infection, which is less than 0.02% of about 950,500 people in the state who have completed their vaccination course. That's a similar rate to that reported in Washington state, where, as of March 30, 102 breakthrough cases were reported out of more than 1 million fully vaccinated people. Eight people, or 0.0008% of those fully vaccinated, were hospitalized. Oregon's experience is also similar, with about 0.02% of 700,000 fully vaccinated Oregonians experiencing breakthrough infections so far. Three out of those 168 people died".
