twomoon | Hackerato il Green Pass di Macron e divulgato in Rete sui Social...Qualche giorno fa era toccato al premier Castex = ? | 00:17 |
twomoon | i'm having trouble translating this using google | 00:17 |
de-facto | huh whats the problem? | 00:22 |
de-facto | %tr <it Hackerato il Green Pass di Macron e divulgato in Rete sui Social...Qualche giorno fa era toccato al premier Castex | 00:23 |
de-facto | %tr <it Hackerato il Green Pass di Macron e divulgato in Rete sui Social...Qualche giorno fa era toccato al premier Castex | 00:23 |
Brainstorm | de-facto, Italian to English: Macron's Green Pass hacked and spread on the Net on Social... A few days ago it was the turn of Prime Minister Castex (MyMemory) — Macron's Green Pass hacked and disclosed on Social Networks ... A few days ago it was the turn of Prime Minister Castex (Google) | 00:23 |
twomoon | i don't know what 'era toccato al premier castex' means | 00:23 |
twomoon | i don't think google is translating that correctly | 00:23 |
de-facto | i guess it means few days ago same happened to premier Castex? | 00:25 |
twomoon | yes, that must be it | 00:26 |
imaginary | en español existe "le tocaba" y significa algo similar | 00:34 |
imaginary | o "le toco" | 00:34 |
twomoon | i am surprised that italian uses the "personal a" | 00:38 |
twomoon | doesn't that seem odd to you? | 00:38 |
twomoon | i thought italian didn't use that special 'a' | 00:38 |
imaginary | i mean, if anything it'd be weird not to use it from our pov | 00:43 |
imaginary | we are spanish speakers after all :x | 00:43 |
twomoon | oh ok but ljl once said that 'a' is sacrilege or whatever the right word is | 00:44 |
twomoon | totally weird | 00:44 |
twomoon | so i'm wondering if i'm misinterpreting it now | 00:45 |
imaginary | could also just be a regular 'a' and not a personal one | 00:47 |
nixonix | there was quite a bit of expert discussion in several threads, about that recent leak (ecohealth, daszak etc), where role of furin site, spikes generally were discussed. because here some people were asking about furin etc, they are useful to read. like this one | 00:48 |

nixonix | a finnish virolog claimed in colomobia and ecuador a third and fifth of new infections are mu variant. they dont have recent sequencing data from those countries in outbreak, so maybe he has more information. but probably spotty data and not reliable | 00:54 |
nixonix | and didnt think it could replace delta's dominance | 00:54 |
nixonix | virologist | 00:55 |
nixonix | there could be micro-rna drugs some day, that would silence some genes of viruses post-transcription, like those deletions in orf8 in that paper, making it milder or even deactivate the virions | 00:58 |
de-facto | wouldnt that depend on seroprevalence and by what type of s-protein it was induced which variant gets more selected by evasion and breakthrough? | 00:59 |
LjL-Matrix | twomoon: that's not "personal a", that's when you use it for a direct object | 00:59 |
Brainstorm | New from COVID tweets: Eric Topol (@EricTopol): It's 2021, yet we have analog vaccine cards that are easily counterfeited. @DrTomFrieden lays out what a national vaccine certification program should look like @nytopinion nytimes.com/2021/09/21/opi… → https://is.gd/mNBqzc | 00:59 |
LjL-Matrix | I greet you becoming I greet to you | 00:59 |
nixonix | funny how evolution caused something like that to develop in viruses. probably some short leftover snippets first, then by a chance, some day some of them were useful for the virus increasing immune evasion or something | 01:00 |
LjL-Matrix | But le tocó is like "it happened to him" (not same meaning but same type of construction), you have "to" in the English one as well | 01:00 |
LjL-Matrix | imaginary: but no, twomoon is right, it's not weird not to use it, it's weird af to use it, objectively | 01:01 |
de-facto | yeah SARS-CoV-2 got some micro-RNA to suppress cellular mRNA so it can hijack the full cellular production capacity for its own proteins | 01:01 |
de-facto | among other functions, i think those NSPs deserve more attention as they probably control a lot of reproduction number (on cellular level) once a virion entered a cell | 01:02 |
de-facto | and if one cell is able to produce hundrets to thousands of virions it would be quite a relevant control mechanism | 01:03 |
de-facto | also fidelity etc | 01:03 |
nixonix | somebody wondered in those discussions, if the furin gets used when it steals a few atoms from furin site (if i recall) and breaks the convalent bond. didnt see if somebody answered, but probably. doesnt matter, those used furin molecules will be recycled and enough more will be produced from the remains apparently, since lack of furin doesnt seem | 01:03 |
nixonix | to slow delta | 01:03 |
LjL-Matrix | de-facto: it worries so much that they frame this as "his green pass was hacked". His green pass was... photographed, that's all. The message that the green pass must be secret is wrong, the green pass is meant to be used together with ID, and thinking otherwise will lead to lame excuses to justify obnoxious phone features like SafetyNet and mandatory apps to display the green pass instead if just using whatever can display a qr code for you | 01:03 |
LjL-Matrix | twomoon: and yes, "it was the turn of" is a pretty reasonable English translation of "era toccato a" given English doesn't have quite that expression | 01:05 |
LjL-Matrix | Okay these are my contributions for tonight bye now I'll get drunk | 01:05 |
nixonix | when the generation cap isnt decades but microseconds, theres lots of trial and error, and survival of the fittest. a third hand would be handy? no? how about four? we never had enough time to try it in mammals, i think... | 01:05 |
nixonix | gap | 01:06 |
de-facto | hmm so the headlines are exaggerated then, i would have understood "hacked" as gaining the ability to use a system in malicious ways such as signing a fake cert or such, but if its only a photograph of the QR code it is completely irrelevant | 01:06 |
de-facto | everyone knows the full name and date of birth of those ministers anyhow | 01:07 |
imaginary | LjL-Matrix: no u | 01:07 |
LjL | de-facto, they may have "hacked" it, i haven't heard/read about this event, but i'm extrapolating based on talk there was in italy of people using other people's green pass and that you should keep it to yourself to avoid having it "hacked" | 01:08 |
LjL | imaginary, you mean "no @ u" | 01:09 |
de-facto | yeah, in my experience here noone controls the validity of the QR code anyhow, so basically i could print out any sample QR code and use it (except i would risking getting into serious trouble (maybe even jail) if they control it one day) | 01:10 |
LjL | generally speaking, when you see LjL-Matrix speak instead of me, you can assume i'm either half-reading with just one eye opening, or crossing the street while looking at my phone | 01:10 |
LjL | (when it's 1am the former is more likely) | 01:10 |
LjL | de-facto, yes, and i guess it's not surprising that they do it like that in many circumstances, but we must keep in mind it's kind of an "informal" use of it and not the way it's *meant* to be used | 01:11 |
LjL | instead with terms like "hacked" for simply having a copy, you encourage people to think that's the normal and correct way | 01:11 |
de-facto | yeah people should get used to control those, otherwise we dont need QR codes | 01:13 |
de-facto | anyhow i am not convinced about all this vaccination passport thing, instead we should establish more testing | 01:16 |
dTal | what's actually the point of the vaccine passport? | 01:17 |
nixonix | reduce spreading and get more people to get a jab | 01:18 |
dTal | seems to me it's mostly about the illusion of control | 01:18 |
de-facto | yeah but imho it should not replace testing | 01:18 |
dTal | You know my boss flew to Lithuania the other day | 01:18 |
dTal | mandatory covid testing on arrival | 01:19 |
de-facto | thats very good | 01:19 |
dTal | no it ain't | 01:19 |
dTal | apparently the procedure there is they drip 15 drips on a lateral flow test instead of the usual 2, wait 15 seconds, then call it negative and chuck it in the bin | 01:19 |
dTal | complete theatre | 01:19 |
de-facto | ahm what? | 01:20 |
dTal | miraculously, no positive results with that procedure, in a queue with hundreds of people | 01:20 |
dTal | imagine that | 01:20 |
de-facto | that indeed does not sound good, they should use PCR | 01:20 |
dTal | my boss got a certificate and everything | 01:21 |
dTal | PCR!? and somehow house hundreds of people for many days? | 01:21 |
dTal | isolating? | 01:21 |
de-facto | lateral flow tests need 15 minutes in the right temp range | 01:21 |
dTal | the ones we get here say half an hour, in no uncertain terms | 01:22 |
de-facto | and PCR maybe three times that, if done at site | 01:22 |
dTal | but it sounds like they were doing it like passport control | 01:22 |
de-facto | they should not be able to issue a cert then if they do it incorrectly | 01:23 |
dTal | indeed, but there's no authority to say that | 01:24 |
nixonix | its just for show. what they really want, is mass infection of kids (ive been reading irene tosetti... | 01:24 |

Brainstorm | Updates for Anguilla: +1 deaths (now 1) since 17 hours ago | 01:29 |
de-facto | imho vaccination is for introducing the immune system to s-protein hence protection against (symptomatic infections) and even more against severe progressions, meaning personal protection and taking load from healthcare system, (proper) testing can end infection chains by preventing more spreading and also allows for monitoring breakthrough rates (important to estimate vaccination efficacy) | 01:29 |

LjL | dTal, because big earthquakes impacting many people may have effects on lockdowns and quarantines and containment and COVID procedures in general | 05:23 |
LjL | and that Australia earthquake was definitely unusual and i'm getting a slew of comments on Reddit about it | 05:23 |
twomoon | why does 'a' get used for direct objects ljl ? | 05:30 |
twomoon | isn't that a bit odd? i thought you said 'a' never gets used for direct objects in italian. | 05:30 |
LjL | probably because with human objects (which is what it gets used for, or sometimes personalized animals" it feels more like you're doing an action "to" them, as they're conscious, rather than directly operating "on" them. and there is already a lot of "a" used for what english calls indirect objects, when verbs involve people: i talk TO you, the difference between "i talk to you about something" and "i talk you about doing something" is subtle, you're still talking | 05:33 |
LjL | to the person | 05:33 |
LjL | in italian we call direct objects "complemento oggetto" and indirect objects "complemento di termine". you can probably understand these terms. in one, you're acting on something, in the other, your action as "terminal" effect on something, or, often, someone | 05:35 |
LjL | even in some southern italian dialects or just colloquial speech from those regions "a" is sometimes used the way spanish does | 05:35 |
LjL | "i shoot you" sounds like a direct object in english (although with english it's kind of hard to tell, but you can tell because "i shoot to you" would be ungrammatical), but in italian "ti sparo" expands to "sparo a te". i.e. i shoot at you, in your direction. the meaning is the same as "i shoot you", but in one language you're the direct object of being shot, in the other you are the person the action acts on, terminates on | 05:36 |

Brainstorm | New from ClinicalTrials.gov: (news): Association of the Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio With Pulmonary Complications and Mortality in COVID-19 Patients → https://is.gd/PslzZF | 17:59 |
nixonix | while maturating depends on follicular t-cells recruited to germinal centers, and thus if the vaccine induces right cytokines for that, it prob also depend how low the circulating ab titers have waned before the next shot (or infection) | 17:59 |
nixonix | so when moderna with 100mcg dose has 4 weeks standard dose interval, while its a bit longer than pfizer's, their titers are supposedly perhaps 2x pfizers, so they havent waned as low in 4 weeks, as pfizer's in 3 weeks | 18:00 |
nixonix | so while moderna's circulating titers may still be higher than pfizer's, after like 5 months, its possible that pfizer's germinal center b-cells have maturated more because of that, so when the protection might be better for moderna at 6 months or so, but that may well reverse after more time has passed | 18:02 |
nixonix | or become more even anyway. vs severe especially, when the circulating titers have gone too low to protect much vs infection | 18:02 |
nixonix | so for moderna, even longer dose interval would be better than for pfizer, probably | 18:03 |
nixonix | remembering their neut intervals have never been compared in the same study. only binding ab titers | 18:03 |

Brainstorm | New from StatNews: First Opinion: Opinion: Biden’s global summit Covid-19 targets are woefully inadequate and must be corrected → https://is.gd/0KwgEF | 18:42 |
nixonix | here's how i would improve these current mrna vaccines (they know all this, and way more, so if they are not doing something like this, there are reasons like production issues, approval and need for new trials, costs etc from the changes - im pretty sure they know what is the most profitable for them to get steady profits from new doses needed): | 18:46 |
nixonix | both should increase the interval between 1st and 2nd dose. moderna could reduce mrna to something like 50mcg to save it and also titers would reduce lower in shorter time, so 2nd would be more beneficial | 18:47 |
nixonix | pfizer should optimize its product since 100mcg gives a bit poorer neutralization than 30mcg, peak being perhaps at 50-75 or something. moderna doesnt have similar issue apparently. or pfizer could increase its dose for the 2nd | 18:49 |
nixonix | both should perhaps use two antigens, like delta spike and one with 484K - SA variant or some recombinant with that mutation. unless it decreases the production too much | 18:50 |
nixonix | both should test protein adjuvants like unmethylated CpG to induce cxcl13/il-17 for b-cell maturation and lasting protection. mrna for adjuvant production would be added in the vaccine | 18:51 |

nixonix | yeah i was thinking the same, maybe not true claim or just some suggested idea | 19:52 |
de-facto | is it about putting some artificial virus into serial passage of a natural reservoir? | 19:54 |
nixonix | it isnt described that clearly, but from the article it looked liked they had plans or ideas that they could vaccinate bats so that they wouldnt get infected by human coronaviruses, which could then combine in bats' ideal immune system creating recombinant viruses that would infect humans easily and would be already airborne infecting between | 20:00 |
nixonix | humans (and picked up something nasty when in bats) | 20:00 |
Brainstorm | Updates for Spain: +130 cases (now 4.9 million), +7 deaths (now 85990) since 22 hours ago | 20:02 |
nixonix | and the other plans were those chimeric viruses with added pathogenicity like cleavage sites in mers etc | 20:02 |
nixonix | those spikes generally prevent viruses to get back easily to the same cells where they were produced. but instead have a bit more diffucult time, and more likely to find other cells, that were not infected | 20:03 |
nixonix | but then if those spikes, especially if they are rigid (like having prolines in them), may have hard time to find receptors they bind efficiently, so further evolution with less flexibility helps the spikes to brush easily on cells surfaces to find the receptors | 20:05 |
nixonix | and then easy cleavage like furin site, makes many of them more flexible already in ERGIC where they are built | 20:06 |
nixonix | tmprss2 would cut both those cleavage sites afaik, but doesnt happen too often | 20:07 |
nixonix | i dont know mers, but maybe it has rigid spikes that are not cleavaged efficiently | 20:07 |
nixonix | P681R mutation makes furin cleavage even easier (as does P681H if i recall), in the beginning of PRRAR motif | 20:09 |
nixonix | some claim that PRRAR in ancient variants proves it was not made in purpose, since it isnt optimal. but they dont know necessarily what is optimal, as if you make it too easy, it will go back to the cell where it came from. its a balance game, and the fittest will survive (not saying it was necessarily added on purpose, even if it was a lab leak - | 20:12 |
nixonix | and if it was on purpose, you test and add pieces from other viruses, not trying to plan an ultimat virus from the beginning) | 20:12 |
nixonix | why do they have different numbers of S-spikes? average 26 or something like that, but it varies a lot. its by no accident, but evolution towards optimal, so they can infect easily different types of cells, with different sizes and densities of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 | 20:18 |

TurboTech | Regarding long covid or long term problems. If you have endothelial dysfunction or an immune system that is not at the top of its game, a vaccine will only do so much (probably keep you alive) but I do not think it can help with the exacerbation of the pre existing conditions. | 23:09 |
