<p>A few months ago, I was playing with msfvenom and wanted to experiment with making a payload designed to bypass the antivirus of both Windows Defender and an antivirus that my work uses(with my boss's permission). I worked on it all day, but I could not get around internet-connected Windows Defender. Any time a port was bound or web connection was attempted, it shut me down.<p>It made way more impressed with Defender. I was always told it's inferior, but its sandboxing and heuristics scanning are quite good.</p>

<p>On websites where covid vax hesitancy is rampant, I often see posts discussing antibody mediated enhancement, vascular damage caused by circulating spike protein increasing vascular damage and causing death from heart attack and stroke in a few years, prion disease development from misfolded protein propagation, and fertility issues. For most of these issues, long term data is needed to rule them out.</p>

<p>Expansion of covid wards is not overload. Mortality rates aren't skyrocketing, and people aren't dying in the streets like we saw in Italy and China in the first weeks.<p>Don't get me wrong, there has been an increase in cases and the R0 needs to be lowered. But draconian measures aren't necessarily required, as Greene County MO's recent infection rates have shown[1]. The R0 sits at below 0 now, and hospital case loads have stabilized.<p>[1] <a href="https://www.covidactnow.org/us/missouri-mo/county/greene_county/?s=21391063" rel="nofollow">https://www.covidactnow.org/us/missouri-mo/county/greene_cou...</a></p>

<p>> we can't let Covid-19 run rampant until we feel we've all the options we like.<p>What makes you say this? There is literally no other city in our country doing a lockdown like this. Many places are still opened up and not experiencing a surge. Even in Missouri, cases have dropped in many regions in the last few days without such lockdowns, and hospitals have not been overloaded.</p>

<p>You're 100% right. This isn't Ebola or SARS where everyone who gets sick has obvious symptoms and becomes gravely ill. Asymptomatic carriers and transference to other animals like birds and cattle will ensure that it will persist in our population permanently.<p>The good news is that viruses tend to get less dangerous over time. Death of the host provides selective pressure against those variants. Syphilis used to be extremely dangerous and rapidly fatal, but it has been around for so long that it has changed. But that process takes years typically.</p>

<p>In my job, I get exposed to the owners of plumbing, construction, and other blue collar industries. From what I've seen, their houses are huge, their spouses are gorgeous, and they live in regions where they get to have an incredible quality of life.<p>The owner of a construction company told me once that he makes a 15% profit per year, and he charges far less than the competition because he would feel slimy taking more.</p>

<p>Uber tried to compensate this independent contractor when they had no legal reason to do so. The contractors assume all legal risk when they work as an independent contractor, which is why many contractors in other industries often form an LLC so their assets are shielded from liability.<p>On top of this, NDAs are common in arbitration. They were under no legal requirement to sign.<p>Plus, compensating drivers a ton for carjacking creates perverse incentives. It would be trivial for a driver's buddy to "carjack" them on camera and seek a payout from it.</p>
