Though note that the NHS to some extend does incorporate that idea, namely that doctors are paid by the state and not by individual sick patients. Hence, doctors don’t have an incentive to ‘keep their patients sick, but alive’, which could be argued to be the case in systems such as Germany or the US, where doctors are paid for each individual visit by each individual patient.
Commodore Amiga: Boxx 3 – New Amiga Game Released
Granted I live in Europe and have only been to SF once in my life, but from afar it looks to me as if the city's will to be 'tolerant', meaning homeless crazy people, gay BDSM-parades and human feces on the streets, makes it a lot less habitable to children and the elderly.
Example from: https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/32795

The Podestas' taste in 'art' is horrible in every way. A mild example: http://i.imgur.com/PMVvrRy.jpg
It is. You see, Python 2.8 cannot be compatible with 2 and 3 because some changes are mutually exclusive:

- you need to choose either bytes or str, you can't have both. And Python 2 API have many functions accepting and returning bytes while Python 3 have many ones with unicode.

- the C ABI and the byte code changed.

- built-in changed.

So you will have to choose between one behavior or the other and deal with it. This is what you do with the excellent six or Python-future libs. They let you write 2/3 compatible code, but the first thing they do is making you choose either the 2 or the 3 behavior.
Don't eat meat, eggs or dairy that use antibiotics in their normal rearing practices (organic is a good alternative, or look for antibiotic free foods, or minimise eating of those altogether). Talk about this with others, in a non confrontational and non judgemental way.

Also, don't take antibiotics yourself unless you are certain they are necessary; many infections are non bacterial, and even some bacterial infections can be fought off by your body quite well. Look after your immune system; it looks after you.

Ironically, taking antibiotics might negatively impact your immune system due to the impact of the antibiotics on your intestinal floral (mostly bacteria, a lot of which are killed during the course), which are increasingly being linked to healthy immune function.
> addressing your caching point

so from my understanding - the learning part isn't frequently used and caching, it's (attempting to be) generalized workload learning, the part of understanding that every DBA should do but usually doesnt.

If that is successfully and is even marginally able to predict workload skews, then the scheduling of operations can be significantly more efficient -- you're essentially reducing entropy in your database massively.

Well, this traffic is sent after link establishment, so at least in a WPA network, it's already encrypted (hopefully it doesn't do the same in unencrypted networks). Still, any member of the network could sniff the MACs of the last few APs the device was connected to, which as you said, it's a security/privacy leak.
They really went too hard with the whole proprietary software thing (but who am I kidding, telecom loves proprietary). Even though I know very little about Avaya, my assumption every time I have tried to look them up is that they are locked down and difficult to integrate with.

That's the most idiotic thing I've ever heard. When I entered high school (central Maryland), I already had two years of algebra under my belt, which allowed me to jump ahead in HS, which then allowed me to jump ahead in college and take more advanced courses than someone who had to start from the beginning would have had time for.

This is ridiculously short-sighted.
Minio is designed to work in conjunction with Kubernetes and Mesos like external orchestrators. GlusterFS, Ceph and Swift has builtin orchestration. So when you measure Minio's scalability, you should measure Kubernetes instead.

Multi-tenant cloud-native architecture requires each tenant to be intentionally kept small (limited by the failure domain). This way, when you scale from few hundred tenants to millions, your complexity doesn't scale proportionately. Million'th instance of Minio is as simple as its first instance. If you are looking for a global namespace, simply use ngnix like proxy load-balancers in the front. Orchestration tools are well understood at scale unlike Ceph and Swift.

Building monolithic distributed systems has a number of challenges. They do not scale beyond a point. Failure may take down the entire site. Troubleshooting is hard. No CI/CD. Entire system has to be upgraded at once with planned downtime. Security breach exposes the whole system..

Points 1 and 2 seem contradictory.
Quite nearly so.

You have to remember the time constraint on drug profitability (~15 years for a US patent on a new molecular entity).

A new antibiotic would be held in reserve except in exceptional circumstances. Even if it was put to use on day one for extensively drug resistant TB and the like, there are too few patients to find a functional price point. It's sort of like the situation with many rare diseases.

My favored approach for solving this problem is using some sort of prize system (Sanders had a bill to do this for all drugs last year if you want to see a model). Effectively, the government offers $X billion for a new antibiotic meeting criteria Y and Z, ensuring that the private sector has financial incentive. In most plans, the drug IP would become public, allowing for immediate low cost generics.

And then you start realizing that blocking all scripts is a pain. You want just this script to work, but not this one. So you start filtering and it takes so much time.

Then often, a site is not working exactly right, and you don't know no-script screw you. Sometime you realize it after 10 minutes looking for something no-script removed. Waste of time.

Why I didn't move to SF (even though pretty much all my friends live and/or work there):

Cost used to be a factor but I think I could afford to live in SF at this point in my career if I made a few sacrifices.

Really it comes down to:

_Homeless people_ They are everywhere. They are yelling (tourette?). They are drunk. They are falling asleep standing up at the bus stop (heroin). They have followed me, calling me a 'billionaire', demanding money and making awful comments about my wife. They pee in the street right in front of you. Half the city smells like urine, and EVERY enclosed space that homeless people can get into smells like urine.

Why would anyone want to have their children near that every day?
Maybe "insider trading" is often rebranded as "luck".
Probably not at home, but that's not when I want to connect faster. I use the Fonera network when I'm in the street, and there's often three or four APs near me, so this could be helpful. Another case is campus wifi, when I was in college. In both of these cases, I want to connect to a specific SSID, but not to a specific AP.
What would be a good tutorial for those that aren't familiar with this?
Suppose you have a new antibiotic that effectively kills multiresistant pathogens. The correct action in this case would be to hold it back and only use it when all else fails. This means you sell at very low volumes, and even if the prices are astronomical revenue is fairly low. Now, in addition, you can sell it on the side in places with a less moral or more weakly enforced regulatory regime, and you end up with overprescription, undercompliance, and use on livestock. As a manufacturer, you can recover costs and make profit much more easily in the second scenario, so it happens whenever the pharma companies can get away with it, which is every time. If you were to force them to hold back the new antibiotic for last resort cases only, it would indeed be guaranteed to be a commercial failure, since volumes are not sufficient to justify bringing it to market.
I'm not sure I'd say comfortable. Three 10'x10' bedrooms would leave you with 600 sqft remaining to play with, and that's not a lot of room for two bathrooms and a decent-sized living space and kitchen, not to mention closets and any kind of storage space (which the need for increases with the number of people who live there).

My 1BR is around 900 sq ft, and I'm having trouble envisioning how you'd carve two more bedrooms out of it and still have a nice space. One more bedroom, sure, but two more feels like it would be a stretch.
Well, I was being somewhat vague to avoid inserting my own story into the thread too much, but I'm going to be a first-time parent soon and I'm living in the same town I've lived in most of my life, which I often get fed up with and daydream of moving away from.

OP just made me realize how lucky I am in my current situation, is all :)

[edit] I'll add I've spent enough time in SF too to know what OP is talking about quite well

One thing to point out-- the inefficiency of Prop 13 makes it much more difficult for families to grow.

As this article[0] points out, only 30% of three-bedroom households in SF have any children at all.

I second your points, and I will add that it's not a surprise that a city full of liberal degeneracy is hostile to normal, traditional families. I don't even understand where this article is coming from, since "creating a city without children" sounds more like a feature of San Francisco, rather than a bug.

> First of all quite a bit of revenue becomes available to the state if debt repayment is suspended.

Good to know you completely disregarded what I wrote about Greece's primary deficit - their government could not pay for itself even before debt repayments. There would have to be very deep cuts, deeper than now.

> Second money markets will immediately be prepared to re-loan to said country.

No. When you look at Argentine's debt default in 2001, in 2013 their foreign currency debt was still only 8.3%, which means that money markets still don't believe them.

> Does that sound like reasonable and safe financial management?

I am not saying EU is in a good financial health - it obviously is not. But letting Greece go bankrupt could very well be a start to a European economic suicide chain-reaction.

> 8 years since the last recession

It's not 'since' - the stagnation still has not ended.

> The EU is even fighting (and fighting VERY dirty I might add) in organizations like the WTO against people insisting on more safety.

More safety of what? There are several currents of activities going on and yes, some are less than ideal, but on the other hand the EU regulations on e.g. food safety are among the best in the world.

> First of all, most countries never follow them.

No.

> The point is that the rules are selectively enforced

Yes

> The only countries that have not built up extra debt

That is not the point of the rules. The point of the rules is that public debt should be manageable (total debt less than 60% of GDP, less than 3% yearly deficit, ideally hovering around 0%).

> If that's true, why isn't every rule violator stagnating?

See above.

> because they lack the political power to force the ECB to inject billions into their economy.

France lacks political power? Please :)
Anyway ECB cannot do it directly, but through QE and other instruments it does exactly that, for years. Without that, Italy and France would be in a much worse state, probably bankrupt.

One could argue that happiness being so traditionally tied to a sense of family is a part of the biological imperative, or at the very least strongly encoded in our social and cultural mores. People get pressured by their friends and extended family to get settle down, get married, and have kids.

If you look at a place like Japan, they're starting to lose that social pressure. It's worrisome for their economy and for care of the elderly in the longer term, but I find it fascinating to see what people do (and don't do) when societal pressures change or go away.

Often more expensive in the Peninsula. And then you have situations like Redwood City where the schools are awful but you still have bad house prices and all you can do is hope that by the time a kid is old enough for school that the influx of new tax dollars from Prop 13 property taxes that were reset to market rates has given them enough budget so they don't suck as much when your kid is ready to enter. And don't forget that any new measures that help schools tend to try to be percentage based in terms of how taxes are assessed, so new owners disproportionately shoulder the burden of improving things while those who have been here the longest and arguably gotten the most value out of the system pay a pittance.

The whole situation is horrible.
Likewise, I have refused scanning in the US, England, and the Netherlands, for the last 8 years and don't have much to report. As much as I hate security theatre, I try to be polite and when asked for the reason I opt out I state that it is political, the devices don't make us safer, and I'd like them to hire more personnel instead ("just like you fine Sir"). In the US, apart from an occasional sigh, my worst experiences have been being insulted by an agent at SFO and an agent putting my shoes with the soles down on my laptop at ORD despite me asking him not to. I do however find that agents in the UK are much less cooperative with "nutcases" such as me, with one officer stating that I made her feel "uncomfortable" by standing as opposed to sitting while waiting since I insisted on seeing my belongings as they take no responsibility for them.

> If, just as a thought experiment, it was possible to treat a disease quickly with a cheap drug or intervention, for example a cheap herbal drug that is available patent-free and for mere cents per liter, there would be no business in it, so no company could viably pursue this.

At that level of cheapness, individual patients can buy it themselves. If it became popular enough, somebody would research it. That's already happened with many Traditional Chinese Medicine herbs. Of course, they turned out to be ineffective but one of them might have worked.

I tried to learn Q/KDB+ more than once with only online resources and I think this book is definitely something needed. The available wiki was always a bit spare and some parts didn't work in the free package you can download for personal use.

KDB is very interesting and I always had the feeling, if you stare long enough at the code you kinda learn a different way to express algorithms and a different view for how to write code. APL and its successors are probably one of those things that Alan Perlis talked about when he said that you should only learn a programming language that changes your way of thinking.

On the other hand:

I don't know why but it somehow bothers me that KDB+ is not open source. I'm not even someone that demands for anything to be open source and I don't actually use KDB besides thinking about learning it every now and then but it really keeps me off.

Still you aren't telling the truth when you say that you filled the harddisk with random data. Without headers the data is random, but you have a backup. Where do you keep that? Is it somewhere in the cloud where you can download it to restore it when in the US?
