I see, read too quickly. So after the POST we/user needs to create a DNS entry and then you guys will poll for that and kick off cert generation, right?
I consider myself pretty decently to the left, and from my perspective the difference is that the establishment left feigns to be for the people, while still being 100% for corporations. So in a sense, I consider it "false advertising" if that makes sense, when voters vote left, they get something they didn't actually want.
These man-made (mini) earthquakes have caused damage that in total could be measured in the low millions of dollars (if that much).

Intel wants $1,440 for its 10 core and $1,113 for a 8 core Xeon-W? Is Intel in self-destruction mode? 4 memory channel, less PCI lanes, 8 less cores, but $120 more when compared to Threadripper 1950x?

You really need to hate your hard earned $ with a passion to buy such rubbish with an Intel logo on it.

As typically understood, rationing is allowing each person to have a fixed amount of something no matter what. In the USA, if you want more healthcare, you have many options to increase your consumption. If you want to redefine rationing as anything that isn't yet post-scarcity, sure we have rationing.

Aside: Poor people do get health care in the USA. My brother was unemployed and received over $1 million in healthcare for his son with cancer, and hundreds of thousands of dollars in care for his dialysis treatment and eventual kidney transplant.
That's far from accurate. The U.K. currently represents around 15% of the EU GDP, which was around 15% higher than that of the US on its own (that includes Norway and Switzerland which are not member but allow me to pencil them in)

If by substantially smaller you mean 'pretty much the same size' then yes you're right.

That (i) is absolutely irrelevant to the discussion at hand and (ii) a completely fallacious argument, since Bitcoin mining amounts to less than 0.01% of the world's energy consumption, providing a useful service in return (compare with gold mining, which is actual mindless busywork and consumes way more energy than Bitcoin does.
Sure it just works well without good government. Keep believing those myths and you should go and live in the states run by the "proper" governments.

Generalizing from Few Examples with Meta-Learning
Kite's $12b acquisition by Gilead [1] on Monday may be a harbinger of anticipated success of these kinds of biotherapeutics.

Given the modularity of these CAR systems, I'd expect to see a cascade of more approvals as the therapeutic scaffold is perfected.
It's not just giant pharma working on these systems either. Younger companies like Cell Design Labs, Chimera bio, Nkarta are taking very novel approaches to further refining the specificity and precision of these kinds of treatments.

The cool thing about the CAR system is that it's amenable to rational engineering from modular, biological components. The CAR approved here was the product of low-throughput painstaking labor, but many companies are trying to boost the rate of R&D.

We're building digital infrastructure to facilitate the rational design of these kinds of biotherapeutics in hopes of speeding up the R&D cycle through an intelligent high-throughput development.

You can dig into the structure of the approved CAR therapy here: https://serotiny.bio/notes/proteins/car19/

And many -- perhaps most -- high school teachers have a similar "white list based" policy because they're unable or unwilling to a) admit that any graphing calculator makes cheating basically impossible to prevent without extremely careful proctoring; and/or b) emphasize learning even at the expense of weakening the signaling value of credentials.

IMO tests should be designed sot that calculators aren't necessary. I can't ever remember using a calculator in university, and that's really the only place I actually learned any mathematics in a classroom setting.

Medical billing would be a cost not a profit center, so I think this may support the idea, not reject it.
This takes a more restrictive view of medical billing and excludes said profits still: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4283267/

"Conclusions:

A simplified financing system in the U.S. could result in cost savings exceeding $350 billion annually, nearly 15% of health care spending."

It also says "Morra and colleagues estimated annual BIR costs in physicians’ practices at $82,975 per physician in the U.S. versus $22,205 in Ontario, Canada [5], i.e., 73% lower."

PS: I would say 100% of the insurance industry excluding doctor payments is medical billing and "Insurance carriers and related activities contributed $450.3 billion, or 2.6 percent, of U.S. gross domestic product in 2014, according to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis." http://www.iii.org/fact-statistic/industry-overview

The problem is not hosting, the problem is not slow speed, the problem is your audience being pulled from you without any legal due process. From listener's perspective, you are denied audience of the person you want to hear, because YouTube decided they didn't like what is being said and heard.

I find that more suffocating than an ISP slowing down my packets.

Google services were taken away, including youtube, gmail, google docs from paying accounts that Google didn't like. That's like Mead coming into your house and taking away the paper notebook they sold to you a week ago, because they don't like what you write in it.

I think on the plus side, if net neutrality is killed, and ISPs start gouging the major providers (e.g. netflix, amazon, google/youtube) then it'll give huge financial incentive for those content providers to break the ISP monopoly.

Google started to do so before (fiber), but the political follow-through wasn't cost effective. There is a tipping point where it is.
“We've covered our sponge up”: Harvey reveals problem decades in the making
I loved reading this.

Bitcoin is truly something worth more than the sum of its parts. I don't feel that the creative combination and implementation of existing ideas diminishes the achievement one bit. (Not that the article made it out this way, just my 2 satoshis)
Given the stasis of the TI lineup and the regression of the HP one this would be very welcome, but it seems intentionally crippled to cater to standardized testing (and I'm not going to be able to port a real CAS to it in my spare time).
I'm one of probably the larger JS fans, and even love working with NodeJS (don't shoot me please) -- but I totally agree with you. I would certainly not trust myself, I really wouldn't trust somebody else trying the same.

I don't see a huge problem using some JS blockchain library for some non-critical application if it somehow added to the end product, but something so highly critical... no thanks.

Except for the part about Tezos. I haven't looked into it.
> I don't see anything constructive about his tone, nor do I find any new ideas in his writing.

Umm... the article is making the case for how Oklahoma is failing it's people. A case accompanied with publicly available data. The tone seems mostly reasonable.

You seem to be the one who's conflating Oklahoma with red states.

If you think there's something wrong about the article, maybe critique something in the article. Right now, all you seem to be doing is lobbing ad-hominem attacks.
In my original comment I wrote "'namedtuple' has one good use - migration from a tuple object to a real object while allowing backwards compatability to the tuple API. For example, the old tuples once returned from os.stat() and time.gmtime()."

The two examples you gave are examples of that good use.

The time.localtime() used to return a tuple. See https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/770e4042db8a1c277b5d9... . The change to StructTimeType is an example of how to do that sort of migration.

Similarly, sys.version_info() used to return a tuple. See https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/193a3f6d37c1440b049f7... . Again, a good example of how to migrate.

However, the "this" in the "There is no reason for this to expose a tuple API" which you quoted refers specifically to the namedtuple that cache_info() returns. That did not replace a tuple, it replaced two attributes, as you can see at https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/234515afe594e5f9ca1... .

And returning a simple type with a couple of attributes while also (and needlessly) treating it as a tuple was never a norm in Python before namedtuples, if only because it was a lot of work.
Flood insurance policies in Houston plunged before Harvey
1968 was a particularly seminal year for political thought and action. There’s such a wealth of writings and histories to draw upon— Kurlansky’s 1968 provides an easily digested history, and the writings of The Situationist International, particularly Debord’s Society and the Spectacle, provide a great look at thought currents that drove some of the more tumultuous scenes of that year (and decade). Marcuse’s One-Dimensional Man (1964) fits squarely within the current of cultural critique that fueled the decade. I’d say a great many of the writings age eerily well—they’re often still poignant and relevant to issues we deal with today.

Of course it is net positive for the early adopters. Google gives preference to its AMP publishers and its search engine. Once we all switch over in pursuance of the huge gains, the benefits will disappear because the AMP will just be the new cost of entry.

And what freedoms will be lost when we are all required to run AMP website?

Well, that's partly true. A lot of the flooding is due to the fact that the entirety of Texas doesn't care about hydrology, and all that water is ending up downstream, in Houston.

There'd still be flooding, and it would still be bad, but a certain degree of flooding was avoidable.

I agree with this take. A big reason why other countries have lower healthcare costs is because they ration care. I moved from a single payer system (Canada) to the US and saw exactly that.

Want the best, experimental treatment for your cancer? A lot (not all) US insurance companies will pay for it. Canada? You need to wait until the gov't does it's review and says "yes". They often say no.

Now, rationing is not all that bad, as obviously healthcare outcomes in the US aren't X% better (X% being the extra amount we pay for healthcare).

The best analysis I've seen as to why healthcare is more expensive in the US is the McKinsey report.[1] It's a huge report, but what they did was breakdown spending in the US by category and compared it to the average across developing nations.

Interesting findings:

- 2/3rds of the excess spending are out-patient care (i.e. stuff that doesn't happen in the hospital). In other words, Americans get a lot more out-patient things done than in other countries

- In-patient care is barely 10% higher than comparable countries

- Health administration and insurance is ~50% higher, but it's not a big piece over the overall spending pie (~7%)

- The US spends about ~20% less on long term care and 50% less on durables (this is shocking to me)

- Finally, the US spends about 300% of other nations on healthcare investment (you'd need to look at the report to see what that means)

U.S. Economy Grew 3% in 2nd Quarter, Fastest Pace in 2 Years
About 20 years ago (Holy shit!) I worked in a potato processing facility. They had multiple belts all about 8' wide that ran through a machine that scanned 100s / 1000's of dehydrated potato flakes for quality every second and could hit a specific flake with a burst of air to blow it off one line and into another. 20 yrs ago. I believe they went under / were bought up by a more modern company 5 or so yrs ago.
You seem to be responding to an entirely different GP post to the one I read, which seemed pretty clear that the GP's company isn't doing the kind of tracking and analytics that a lot of people might say were "NOT OK".

It's easy to post bold privacy advocacy from the cheap seats, but I suspect you wouldn't like a world where these new rules really were enforced to the letter. Many of the organisations whose products and services make your life better in some way would most likely cease to exist, and the economy on which your personal quality of life depends would surely take a huge hit.
Should I really explain why that doesn't make sense? With GPUs or CPUs individuals can outweigh large organizations. With ASICs, the 'many' are far less because the barrier to entry is so high, so the many can't easily outweigh the few and centralization occurs.

Likely because they have monitored ever North Korean missile launch and they know these are ballistic missiles. That means they follow a parabolic trajectory, and that means that before they go very far, a reasonably accurate landing zone can be calculated.

The USA and Japan (and China and Russia) likely knew within seconds that it would land in the sea and they even knew how high it would fly over a low population area in Japan.

It's like a car full of young punks stopped at a red light beside a police cruiser and when the light goes green they burn rubber and peel away from the intersection first, but never exceed the speed limit. Very provocative, but the police have real crime to deal with, so they ignore it.
“click through rate from Google search went from 5.9% (Regular) to 10.3% (AMP), and average search position went from 5.9 (Regular) to 1.7 (AMP).”

So ranking #2 in search results on average correlated with an increase in click through rate. Oh, btw, just happens that you gotta use AMP to get the SERP gain.

1 million in heathcare is still rationing. If say bill gates kid had cancer they would likely spend more money on care in the same situation.

But, as you say until we are post scarcity there is going to be cost benifit analysis. All I am saying is our current system is inefficient, I don't expect we are going to transition before the next revolution.

PS: A lot of government money ends up going to healthcare independent of patient care. Ex: HRSA Grants for Rural Heath systems add up to ~16 billion and are not counted as Medicare Medicare etc https://www.hrsa.gov/ruralhealth/
Weston and KWin are Wayland compositors. Wayland should obsolete X11 (it's not a misconception, it's one of the primary goals), but it's a humongous task, especially from applications side. And Wayland is not yet feature complete to replace all common use cases. For example it's still lacking standard protocol for screen recording and screenshots, that fits its security model.
In that case it should be fairly easy to find the comment it's associated with.
