Pretty soon, what happened to anesthesiology (one physician managing multiple extenders managing lots of technology in multiple places) is going to happen to the rest of medicine.

Physicians will adapt by carving out even narrower niches ("I only specialize in the LEFT eye..." ;). But I really don't see a they-took-our-jobs moment until people are allowed to file lawsuits against AI. Companies will never put out an AI M.D. in the wild unless there's a flesh and blood counterpart to shoulder the liability (+1 job right there).

Don't get me wrong though, I eagerly anticipate the day when going to the doctor/machine is not such a miserable soul-sucking experience... (I'm a physician.)
"I wouldn't say Firefox was leading the way or the biggest innovator in the last few years"

That's the thing for me. Before Chrome, Firefox was the big innovator (trailing only behind Opera, and even then).

Then Chrome happened, Firefox took a bit of a backseat (not as bad as IE or Safari, but enough of one to let Chrome become the big innovator), and Opera became a reskinned Chrome.

It'll be interesting to see how Mozilla approaches the next few years. Firefox still offers features that the other major browsers do not (for example, and critically to my own use case, it's the only major browser that supports any semblance of an equivalent to Tree Style Tabs), and the emphasis on an open and standards-compliant web could reinforce the historical reason why practically every user agent under the sun includes the word "Mozilla".
I work in enterprise, and our use case for JIRA is so utterly complex to meet all of the requirements / standards that I cannot even imagine how a migration to Trello would work.

I see this acquisition as both a) a smaller alternative to JIRA that is much easier to use (but fundamentally different) and b) a way to prevent Trello from growing into something bigger, more complex, and become a big competitor to Atlassian.

I use Trello with my fiancé to organize our wedding planning, house chores, and projects, but I cannot even imagine how awful it would be for my work's use case.
> I cannot think about an use case, but there should be few.

Once you're used to having them in the toolbox you use them all the time.

> You see it like a problem, I see it like a good practice. You should do whatever you want with code that wasn't meant for something else.

Would you say your classes shouldn't have fields that are third-party library types? Having variants that are third-party library types is just the converse.

> I see this in Python, Ruby and other languages.

I can't speak to Ruby but I have Python experience. springpython is seen as a joke. Python decorators are actual Python functions written in normal Python, not hints to some magic framework that does the actual implementation. Metaclasses are problematic but they don't break the rules of the language to anything like the same extent as happens in the Java world.
Source?

I doubt that is true anymore. Maybe 1/3?
Of course, caveats about trusting Github also apply. (If Github got hacked, the page https://github.com/[github name].keys would serve the public key of a fresh attacker-controlled key and would trigger shortly afterwards an SSH login attempt with that key towards the client IP to do evil stuff.)

Interesting. So ioeventfd is also handled in userspace, I guess.

A couple years ago I measured a huge slowdown on userspace vmexits for guests spanning multiple NUMA nodes, because of cacheline bouncing on tsk->sighand->siglock. Maybe you're not using KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK.

Yes, I read the article. All the handwaving about maybe land on the fringe... but maybe that would actually be more expensive because of land use restrictions... and utilities would have to happen somehow but not clear about the costs.

>Affordable housing requires affordable land. Big cities almost by definition do not have affordable land, therefore the housing will never be affordable in the way the author is asserting.

I agree. My assumption was that, given this context, he was talking about the outlying areas of cities people were interested in. Of course, otherwise, land prices are not the issue and housing construction prices aren't really the issue either.
I have been "requesting" such a tool for a long time.

Why? Because most of the circuits designed today are mostly digital, and they include IC which are very integrated: lots of functions, and often lots of pins.

So, in the end, you have IC that you cannot represent properly, meaningfully, on a schematic (they have too many pins and many of them can bear a different function depending on configuration); and you spend your time connecting buses or other digital signals... with a non-negligible percentage of error.

What do you use 90% of the time? Straight connections from bus to bus, a few pull-ups/pull-downs here and there, and a good amount of decoupling capacitors, of just 1 or 2 different values, between the same pins. A RC filter on some inputs, a crystal oscillator there. That's almost all, the real analogue circuits parts are
generally small, so even if they are more painful to write and read compared to a schematic, there will still be an overall gain in describing the circuit by text.

Being able to do that (writing those elements and links) in some descriptive language (HDL) would be great. There's a reason why we switched from schematic to HDLs for FPGA / ASIC design. And this reason become more and more meaningful for PCB design too. (Also it would make diffs much easier.)

I had written some syntax example for such HDL, but I suck at compilers and stuff.

I will have a look at this project, even though I fear it won't satisfy me and won't implement what I want. I generally find languages that are piled upon an existing one cumbersome, verbose and unfit for the specific purpose . Especially a descriptive language upon a programming language.
> I've yet to meet another person who is intentionally ambivalent on the issue

I can see why circumstances make you feel that there's a special something about a fertilized egg, but we're really all in the same situation - but for a tiny difference someone else would have been born.

If your grandmother had a weapon she might have been able to prevent being raped, which would have been a positive spin on the same result as an abortion - you not being born.

> I'm neither pro-choice nor pro-life. I've chosen to remain neutral on the issue

Neutral is pro-choice. No law.

To justify a law, present a reason and a rationale. Otherwise why pass it, right?

> But to suggest that this issue is one where science and logic makes one position definitively correct and the other incorrect is wrong. It is an issue of morality and philosophical beliefs and, as such, science cannot decide it any more so than religion can.

That's a fundamental misunderstanding of what science is. There's no reason you can't apply science to religion.

If there were gods, and they had an impact on us, it'd be scientists who noticed it and performed experiments to quantify it. We'd even be doing cohort studies to see if the gods disapproved of being monitored, etc.
If the problem is people leaving their car there for hours, is a $24/hr fine really that small? Yea, it might increase the number of people who leave their car there for 10 extra minutes, but it seems highly likely to address the real problem, which is low turnover at the Superchargers.

Even then, Tesla can very easily just increase the fine (or do something like a steadily increasing fine) to address this concern. They could also charge additional fees to anyone who leaves their car at a supercharger for too long serially (and my guess is that these are the real problem).

Seems to work for big scientific theories as well, more or less. Although an alternative explanation is that after 50 or so most of the original group of people driving the development will be gone, and as a result you end up with several loosely connected but separate developments. Which isn't really a sign of maturity, but merely a lack of coherence.

Interestingly, CodeWeavers appears to be part of the reason in 2002 why Wine changed its license from MIT to LGPL. They were concerned about the fact that CodeWeaver's fork of Wine was proprietary.

(Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_(software)#History https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2002-February/00...)

CodeWeaver's Wine variant still seems to be proprietary according to Wikipedia -- I wonder what made the relationship between CodeWeavers and Wine evolve.
I'm not saying that they can't do it. I wouldn't even be particularly surprised if Trump does it - he is, allegedly, a big fan of Andrew Jackson, the only president to date in US history who openly defied the Supreme Court ("John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it").

I would be somewhat surprised if the Congress ended up doing it, but seeing how spineless they already are wrt Trump even where he contradicts them, not super surprised.

My point, rather, is that, should such a thing happen, it would be a bona fide constitutional crisis. If two branches of government are openly in defiance of parts of the Constitution, it becomes a free for everyone else, as well. Secession would suddenly be on the table for real - after all, the Constitution is what makes the Union, so if the Constitution is no longer the supreme law of the land, then the states could reasonably argue that they aren't bound to the Union in any sensible way. Or they could simply state that per the Emoluments Clause, they consider the president illegitimate from there on, and so no EO and no act of Congress signed by him has force of law on their territory. Or even invoke the 9th and the 10th Amendments in a full-on literalist vein (stealing the book from fringe factions of the right), and just claim that the feds simply don't have most powers that they claim as well.

This is all very far-fetched, but in the event of an open defiance of SCOTUS by the other two branches, we'd already be in the realm of far-fetched things, so the impossible becomes possible, and unlikely becomes probable.
CoverMyMeds gets acquired by McKesson for $1.1bil
Here's one proposal for affordable housing in San Francisco: modular units that are extremely cheap to assemble and can be combined into a much larger building.

The developer can have them here instantly and wants to build on a plot near Cesar Chavez and rent to the city. The city's not interested because the buildings are not built here and they'd be a little more expensive than existing SRO's.

> I am consistently baffled how a political party can make so many decisions that are objectively wrong and still garner support of roughly 50% of the population.

No party in the US has support of "roughly 50% of the population"; the two largest are around 25% by polling [0]. With turnout at the last election around 55%, the voting in the last election is also consistent with each major party being supported by around 25% of the population eligible to vote.

It's not functionally equivalent to slavery. Slavery has nothing to do with being resource poor. It has to do with threats of violence being used to compel one person to work for another.

There is a fundamental moral difference between using violent threats and physical confinement from using offers of payment to compel work.

Taking a job because the alternative is to starve is still a consensual interaction. We need to work to survive. We can go out into the wilderness, and live off the land, which would let us survive at subsistence levels, or we can go into civilization and work within an employment contract that gives us a much higher standard of living.

The freedom to choose ensures that generally speaking, people in a market economy are choosing one of the better options available to them, rather than one of the poorer ones. It also ensures that when people DO interact with others, it is because it is generally mutually beneficial. This basic dynamic leads to an emergent property of actions carried out in markets generally being a net-value gain for the economy as a whole.

Well you can define the word "theft" that way if you want, but I see a big difference between punching someone in the face and picking up an object, whatever words you use for it.

So you can't use the moral weight of the former to make responding to the latter with actual physical violence seem significantly more necessary to me than responding with physical violence to people who don't pay taxes.

One of the things the old expert systems like MYCIN could do was answer the question "Why", as in, why did you come to that conclusion? And it would show its reasoning. I may be mistaken but I don't think that the new, neural net based systems can do that. Interesting regression if true.
You didn't say whether the medication was declared at the initial admission. Nonetheless the thing I took away most from your remark is a reminder to be aware of side-effects.

Since your question is about visualization -- the kind of schematic this is good for looks like this:

Facebook is copying yet another popular Snapchat feature: Stories
"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."
Dense, incredibly difficult to parse, with a non-standard use of "front" as a verb and what seems to be a triple-negative. If I said that sentence to you, out loud, I doubt you would catch the meaning of it on the first pass. The book is filled with stuff like that.

I don't think that's difficult for educated native English speakers. Walden was written in 1854, and most people who went to high school in an English speaking country would have some exposure to Shakespeare which is 250 years older than that - so I really don't think it's very archaic. Are you a non-native speaker? You write English completely fluently but if you've had no real exposure to the literature I can understand why you might find it hard going.

I haven't taken English since high school, and had no "liberal education" at university, and I did just fine with the audiobook (ie the whole thing was read aloud to me). I am not going to pretend it's easy to understand as modern, informal speech but it certainly wasn't arduous.
In places were housing is expensive, land will be the majority of the cost. In places where land is cheap, housing is already not expensive.

All of these changes that Trump is making in his first week are making me wonder: what's the population limit, really, for a well functioning democracy? I'm no historian, but didn't the United States go around saying how great democracy is? I don't know about you, but to me it definitely feels like it doesn't work quite as intended.

As for the article at hand, all I can offer is this" Trump's blatant distrust for climate change is just mind boggling. What exactly is he afraid that'll happen? [1] Why all of the resistance? These aren't rhetorical questions. I'm genuinely curious.

ScalaZ is trivial once you have the concepts, I can and have reimplemented all the parts of it I need (repeatedly in fact). The same goes for Shapeless - it's good to have a standard definition of these things, but there's really not that much to them, they're actually very small libraries. I need HKT because now that I have HKT in my mental toolkit I'll think of solutions to my requirements in terms of them, and it's really painful to have to manually expand out if the language doesn't let me write down the description I have.

How spystealth.orggmail.com saved me from my wicked wife
I'm disabled after a fatal accident. My wife abused me and neglected me by hitting me in my sleep, switching my medication and stealing my pain medication I have a brain injury so she would tell me I was hallucinating or making it up that I was beating her in my sleep because I was having nightmares and hating myself but the doctors told me it is impossible for me to dream anymore and that injuries are permanent. I got rushed for brain surgery after all my money is gone and I lost my business and she told me I’m going to be alone forever because I’m retard. I just needed to go into her facebook because she is in mine and messaging people bad things and has left me nobody talking to me. so i went online to start my search for a professional hacker then i found spystealth.org@gmail.com. i mailed him and told him what i needed him to do for me. He helped me at a more affordable price, and even faster than i expected. He helped me gain the evidence i needed to win the case against the wicked woman i called my wife. Thats how she got out of my life for good. Since then i have promised spystealth.org@gmail.com to always give good reviews about him anywhere i am. spystealth.org@gmail.com is legit and the man for the hack job. Thank me later.

Holding aside for a moment current capabilities, would you prefer: Human interaction with more fault or no human interaction and less fault?

The obvious rebuttal which is common is: "why not have a compassionate human read the machine results/analysis/interpretation/prescription?"

Yes. Closures add quite a bit of complexity and footprint.

Yes I prefer the simple Trello over Jira but, only for my own personal projects. Trello is completely useless where I work and, is in no way, disruptive to the Enterprise.

My point was that, if you can't figure out where a Kanban board is in Jira you should probably stick to Waterfall development. The author either didn't spend a few minutes looking at Jira or has no clue what the real difference between the two products are.

I highly doubt Trello would have replaced Jira at the pace the article suggests. Either Trello would become overly complex or Jira would adapt and become simpler and add even more needed features. I don't believe Atlassian bought Trello out of fear that Trello would innovate them out of market. That dilema just doesn't apply here IMO.
Maybe, but I don't think FOIA will last long, to be honest, given the steps the current administration has taken in the first 5 days.
> No doubt it's simpler than QEMU but I wonder if adding tests to QEMU, even if they're only for the specific architectures they're running (most likely x86-64) would have been just as usable.

There are some folks who have this view, but doing it from scratch also has the advantage that it integrates much more cleanly with Google's global shared codebase. There's a huge body of existing work that I can leverage more or less trivially. This includes things like Google's internal metrics and monitoring framework, our RPC framework, etc. Yes, you could bolt these onto the side of qemu, but qemu is a C codebase and most of Google (including the custom VMM described in the article) is not.

Additionally, when software is built using the same style, tools, and best practices as the rest of Google's codebase, it makes it easy for other engineers in the company to contribute. We benefit from Google-wide code cleanups, *SAN analysis tools, codebase-wide refactorings that make code easier to reason about the correctness of, etc.

Several years ago I think the question would've been a lot more difficult to answer, but today I the advantages of the route taken are unambiguous.

No and no. Those are just standard (albeit colored) bricks and it was using a vacuum clamp to pick them up.

If you're thinking, "there's no way you can pick up a brick with a vacuum; it's too porous." Think again. The hottest thing in woodworking right now is Festool's new vacuum clamp. I've personally witnessed it holding on to a cinder block so strongly that I could not pull it off with all my might.
