This post directly addresses each point that Ptacek raised in his "Against DNSSEC" blogpost and FAQ.
It seems obvious that this plays a role, but I expect a large proportion of guns to be illegally owned, so repealing the 2nd amendment won't magically solve the problem (and it seems unproductive to try either way). I think the fundamental problem is fear, whether justified or not, it's what causes cops to react with disproportional violence.
I actually agree with you; I was just poking fun at the "high price good, low price bad" tone of the article. Notice the author's apparent relief that a few commodities have "managed to stay out of the bear market" because of bad weather and supply problems.
"And I know that you stated that you don't consider saying no to a low priority case as negative treatment, but again, I promise you, PLENTY of people do."

And I'm on the practitioner's side here. And yes I can see that this influences ratings. My quick one liner about evaluation of facility vs. independent doctor may be confusing in that the rest was not addressing evaluation but rather treatment of patients.

"Have they ever had someone hit them because they didn't get their turkey sandwich fast enough? Spit in their face because they were made NPO? Pee on them on purpose? I sincerely doubt it."

Yes and worse. But given that, I can certainly see that this is the status quo for nurses/techs and not for doctors so I can certainly sympathize. I'm not defending these actions.

"'If you can't handle the stress, get training or change departments'. That's exactly the response that causes nursing to have such a high turnover and burnout rate."

Yes, it is easy for me to say, but my ease by no means releases someone from their responsibility to control their emotions under stress. And I'd like to hear more about that being the reason for high turnover.

"I'm advocating ... more patient education on the other side of healthcare."

Ha! In the U.S. this is a lost cause. I do agree with you completely, but the system is set up in such a way that medical knowledge is abstracted away from normal life/people to a ridiculous degree. And both parties, the lay and the physicians, seem to prefer this. Incredible!

"And frankly, I think that sometimes, it should be okay for healthcare workers to interact with a patient like they are an asshole because THEY ARE."

('you' used in the third person below)

If that means reacting in kind then I disagree. If you're rude to a rude person then you're a rude person. If you decide that somehow a rude person deserves a lesser degree of care then you should get reacquainted with medical ethics.

You did add "You'll get the same standard of care." So the above is a general comment and not 'aimed' at you personally.

DNSSEC got PKI wrong, but what it got right was building authentication (DANE, etc) on a standard protocol (DNS) for exchanging key/value data.

Like DNSSEC, whatever protocol comes next ought to support offline signing of k/v data, so that it can be served securely by organizations that can't afford HSMs. And it should be used in a similar way to DANE -- for bootstrapping other protocols in a general way.

Agreed — to me, the ability to compile my OS X projects for Windows is a far, far more interesting proposition than being able to port my iOS projects. To be quite honest, I don't really care that my iOS apps don't have a Windows Mobile port.
A few thoughts on your comment...

The SV scene isn't like the dotcom days without a business plan. There's a lot of startups now that have revenue from day one, and are cashflow positive. The value is tangible in many cases (not all).

Second, I wonder what impact the tanking China economy will have on the US real estate market. Wealthy Chinese have been parking their dollars in real estate here for a while, and with the stock market seen as more risky now, I wonder if that trend will increase and drive up home prices further.
Considering Elon Musk's public statements about the risk of advanced AI, perhaps he finds it helpful to cultivate a sense in society that "Terminator-like" AI is starting to happen now.

... for some values of "very". German police don't shoot much at all.

That said I'm a former Norwegian King's Guard, and we were told to aim for the legs first if shooting was absolutely necessary. Admittedly, since we were shooting with 7.62mm NATO rounds at the time, a shot in the leg would basically be a very crude amputation. They use 5.56mm NATO now, but I bet getting hit in the leg is still not much fun. We were stationed at posts including the palace and the fortress, which are both in the centre of Oslo, so if you're really looking for trouble the threat is not academic. I've never heard of a guard firing at anyone since ww2 though (except themselves in suicide).
Agreed with Ectoplasm here. My mother was a psych nurse and this was par for the course. She did not enjoy this part of the job.
Beyond being able to handle almost arbitrary orientations and alignment between the car and charger, Elon is probably planning on reusing this tech at SpaceX for docking or other purposes (just like they share battery tech).

He's a pro at coming up with "synergies" between his companies.
I agree that we should reconsider what situations call for the use of a SWAT team. But when that situation arises, it's perfectly reasonable for SWAT teams to always have their weapons drawn no?
it's not without good reason. there's no point in over engineering something when a simpler design can do the trick.

Not exactly what I meant, but that's a good point too!

Yes. Switched to iPhone. I like the access to the filesystem, available on some Android phones, but the iPhone is a superior product in my opinion. The two main advantages are 1) not having to care about which kind of memory an app is sitting in, and 2) voice control. I also find the iPhone less buggy overall, but I haven't used Android in about a year.

> Can you guess what happened next? The dot com crash happened, and shares of Cisco plummeted to $12/share.

Yes you need a portfolio.
Well, yes, but you cannot do any useful math on months with that fact. Late in January, plus one "month", gives you early in March; early in July, plus one "month", gives you late in July. I can't imagine what useful intent could lead to this code being correct.
I don't think that comparison is valid.

* On a carrier 100% of the people are well trained professionals. Not so in a hospital, were patients have never been trained to be good patients.

* Not only are people not trained to be patients, they are, especially in situations of distress, usually not helpful at all. As a rule, you do not trust a diagnosis provided by a patient (even if a doctor!) because the person might exhibit an acute stress reaction (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_stress_reaction) - avoiding this state by prior exposition is one of the reasons why pilots train emergency situations in flight simulators.

* Managing "hospital ED patient flow" is something that has improved a lot (see your example of direct transfer to trauma units), but it still is the attempt to manage the inherently unmanageable: On a carrier you know how many jets you have in the air and how long their fuel lasts and thus you can coordinate, in an ED you can only, if such a system exists in your region, have incoming ambulances diverted to other hospitals. But you still have no idea who will stumble through your door the next moment, brought by friends or taxis.

I am all for collecting data and applying metrics to make a process better, but there are some areas where the collection and evaluation should be done by professionals who understand what they are grading, not by amateurs who either entered that area involuntarily (actual emergencies) or who just try play the system for their own advantage (getting prescriptions).
And? Did you stop?
> Huh? That is what a PKI consists of....

How do you sign a key/value data set with a certificate from Verisign? Are there tools that can automatically follow this delegation?

In DNSSEC once your zone is signed, you can upload an entire signed tree of subdomains. With current CA's, you get one certificate signed for xxxxxxx.com, and have to go back to Verisign for any subdomains (keys) you decide to add later.

I can't add a signed value for __custom_protocol__._wellknown.me.com that uses the existing x509 infrastructure. If I add another server, I can't delegate to it.

> DNSSEC was, from the outset, designed to support offline signing.

Yes... that's what I said. The replacement should support it, too.

Exactly but you will get downvoted to the oblivion because there's too many japanese,anime lovers that would hit you in the face if you would defend the bombing.

But these are retarded westerners who have no clue. They deserved every shrapnel from the bomb and still have not paid the full price to all of the victims.

HELL THESE japanese denied the free health-care to non-japanese victims. 20 000 koreans died in the bombings. But nobody cares.

Japanese people were and still are a terrible nation. I hope they sink to the oblivion.
One of the worst effects of it that I can think of, is that sleep apnea in general can lead to a slowed metabolism which can make weight gain easier, which leads to more severe sleep apnea causing a runaway condition that causes all of those other illnesses to get worse.
That's a terrible idea. Now on top of an already stressful situation, the cop has to remember whether the round that is about to go off is a blank or not. Also if the suspect is quickly approaching the cop, the blank round would only serve to slow down the officer's reaction time.
> Dashrath Manjhi (c. 1934 – 17 August 2007), also known as "Mountain Man", was a poor laborer in Gehlaur village, near Gaya in Bihar, India, who carved a path through a mountain using only a hammer and chisel. After 22 years of work, Dashrath shortened travel between the Atri and Wazirganj blocks of Gaya town from 55 km to 15 km.

Apparently he lived off the charity of people hoping for a 40 km reduction in the route.
I think the way children were taught about World War II changed significantly over time in almost every one of the countries mentioned, in general from very simple good vs evil view to a more nuanced one.

Because of that, IMO, this list has little value without information about when the commenters were taught about the bombs.

It's very clearly not in our best interest to be involved in the TPP. The Canadian position should be: HECK NO! regardless of your position left, right, or center. We have nothing to gain, and quite a bit to lose if we join this, so under any terms it is in the best interest of every Canadian that no deal goes through.

Tom Mulcair is the only one championing these proceedings. Harper is involved because he's our current PM, but I don't think he's terribly enthusiastic about the situation.

Do you know where the Liberals stand on the TPP (including and excluding Trudeau)?

Two related ideas in Japanese culture relevant to the discussion:

Ichi-go Ichi-e, 一期一会, is a 16th century Japanese phrase saying that we meet each other only once in a lifetime. (Opportunities are scarce.)

And then there are the stories of the three samurai and the songbird.

The samurai are Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, and Ieyasu.

Each of them encounters a songbird and wishes to hear it sing.

Nobunaga says, if you do not sing for me, then I will kill you. And he takes out his sword to slice the bird.

Hideyoshi says, if you do not sing for me, then I will make you sing. Then he offers the songbird something sweet.

Ieyasu sees the bird and says, if you do not sing for me, then I will wait until you do sing. He then sits and waits (forever).

There were many ways the allies could have ended World War II in the Pacific theater. The United States, with the dropping of the atomic bomb, chose to follow Oda Nobunaga's philosophy. Whether that is right or wrong is its own debate.

The philosophy of the 16th century samurai is a big thing in Japanese culture and often an interview question for candidates applying at a company. I have a limited knowledge of the samurai from visiting Nisshinkan in Aizu when I lived there. That was a samurai school where young fighters trained who fought in the civil war.

Do they really intend to release this, or is it just an experiment? Because there's no way that thing is going to save enough time to be worth the cost.

'Dropbox for Business' multiple accounts have a dismal implementation. What they did is let one personal account pseudo-merge into a business account, so now both are sort of in the same place, no matter how unrelated. Oh and tough luck if you have multiple accounts, multiple businesses, try to disentangle the accounts, use mobile devices and a whole host of other issues.

What they should have done is just taken the google approach. You can login one or more times concurrently, and can choose your current user view by switching users in a dropdown somewhere. There was some drivel about how non-paying customers could then combine multiple non-paying accounts, but making your service hostile for the paying customers is stupid, and the simple solution is to allow at most one unpaid account.

Dropbox is very lucky that their competition sucks, and that they support Linux. (While you may not need Linux support, others you work/play with may, amplifying the Linux support needs ignored by pretty much every other vendor.)

I wish services would just adopt the google multi-account approach. I'm looking at you Trello.
I'd have to know more too. All I know client services to be was like copying, etc from a firm I worked at years ago.
Ask HN: Former Startup CEO in Eastern Europe. Career Path Suggestions?
Hi HN, need some advice here. I'm working since 2005 in online companies in an unnamed Eastern European country, been a (really successful) performance marketing director of an ecommerce company, CEO of a mildly successful startup, which I had to leave due to personal reasons, then CMO at a very successful startup and currently a head of product at a BigCo in Eastern Europe.

I want to move to work in US, but I am stumbling to find a good career path for myself. I am a good engineer, a good marketer, a moderately proficient data scientist, good at designing product, and generally good at solving business problems. Out of all jobs I've had, holding a generalist executive role has been the most personally rewarding, yet it seems that SV really favors specialists. Any place for (senior-level) generalists or any specific niche I could reasonably get in from across the ocean?

Any comments would be appreciated.
Upvoted. Japan can shove their lotte icecream up their butts.
I agree with you in regards to the SV scene, but it's important to remember that even established firms could sink under the right economic conditions. Sure, there's no obvious pets.com.

As far as the US real estate market goes, I'd say it's possible that people parking their money here in even greater numbers will accelerate the current drive for luxury real estate while causing a shrinking of the middle value real estate market. You also see this in London right now, with tons of new luxury buildings being built and sold off, only to sit empty and used as a value bank. The general effect is that real estate values in general rise sharply and people are forced out of middle-value areas so that they can be redeveloped into ultra-high value areas. These are geographically centered effects, though. I'm really not sure how much it could drive the larger real estate market, which is already as hot as it's been since the crash.

Alas, I see the strawman version trotted out at least as frequently as the more reasonable version.
Very surprised that there was no statements/discussion from the Chinese perspective, as the Chinese probably suffered more attrocities at the hands of the Japanese than any other country during WW2.

What surprised me most in school (and same with this article) is how much focus there is on the atomic bombs, when aside from the significance of the decision itself, the destruction/lose of life is eclipsed by US firebombings. Here is a website with nicely compiled/displayed statistics of the 67 Japanese cities the US firebombed and the resulting destruction: http://www.ditext.com/japan/napalm.html
I just talked with a driver. He said the 80% is correct, gross. Because everyone is a contractor the government takes another 30% on top of it. Plus they have to pay their own insurance, repair, gas, etc. so after everything is said and done, he makes about $13/hr. (This is inside San Francisco.)
Yeah that makes a lot more sense! Thanks for clarifying.
>This is of relevance to the question because there are a lot of people who think the bombing of Hiroshima is justified, but when you get into the question of Nagasaki it gets more murky. Three days is not adequate time for a government to make a major decision; it is not really even adequate time for a government to assess what has happened (whether it was really an atomic bomb, what the damages were like, etc.).

> What if machine learning systems come up with results that agree with "evil" stereotypes and "biases"?

This is already the case, and shouldn't be surprising. That is why the legal system can veto popular opinion, to protect minorities from the prejudice of the majority. The problem is that many people still don't realize that algorithms reinforce popular prejudice and institutionalized bias against the uneducated and the poor.

I'm all for parables that shed light on complicated situations, but isn't that one kind of sweeping everything that made it a difficult decision under the rug? When it comes to the decision of whether to drop the bomb there is like horrendous death any which way you go, but with killing a songbird as opposed to waiting it is more one sided.
