People generally say that over-prescription leads to harder opioid usage because it does. I have had co-workers familiar with the neurological effects of the drugs they've been given balk at it. I've also known community members who had injuries slide into the obscurity of addiction.

A very real factor of this crisis is the pain aversion, people working in dentistry have higher rates of depression and suicide due to the psychological effects of inflicting pain on people (unless the dentist is played by steve martin ofc) and it's a problem without clear solutions. Legalization of marijuana would probably help reduce the mild-moderate pain classes in a non-addictive manner, but for extreme pain there isn't a good solution.

Anyways... there are plenty of first-hand accounts and plenty of studies showing the connection here, please do a little research before posting unsupported claims.

Not just an NFL problem: Brain damage in Richmond-area high school football
I grew up in them Scandinavian countries, and my brother and I often spent the entire weekend outside out of sight from my parents. My earliest memory of that is when I was 7 years old.

I now live in the US and have kids about the same age.

The issue is not homogeneous culture or any other thing people with no brains come up with, but traffic density, at least in my case.

Where I used to live we could roam without having to cross dangerous streets. Where I live now, there's traffic everywhere and cars don't give a shit about people on foot, so my kids do not roam.

When I was a kid, we used to have vast areas to play safely. I just looked on Google Maps and the cross-country ski route we used to regularly take on weekends is 4 miles long. We had to cross ONE street. I used to bike about 10 miles one way, by myself, when I was a little older and keep on bike lanes the entire trip.

We also used to have large play areas in the backyard of every home I ever had. The bigger ones were the size of a typical New York borough block. We didn't have to leave our homes to get to a playground, or a park...we had one right outside of our door.

Obviously this sort of thing is easier to do / plan for when the entire country has less people than the city of New York.
Why do you assume that I am a straight white male?

Why do you assume I lived a life of priveledge because of the color of my skin and my gender?

This is exactly what I'm describing. One cannot fight racism with racism.

Now I'm being threatened with a ban for expressing such an opinion. At what point does it become acceptable to discuss this topic? When straight white men become a minority? If we allow threads like these to be posted repeatedly, why is it ok to suppress the other side of the discussion?

I'm finishing up an application that's built around a Kafka Streams topology. Kafka Streams is quite nice and I am excited to put it into production to see how it works.

All mutations run through the Kafka Streams application. A Relay webapp client communicates with a graphql-java server which resolves GraphQL queries against a gRPC service layer. This service layer either queries Kafka Streams state stores, other state stores, or writes mutations to Kafka, wherein they are processed by the Kafka Streams topology. Another Kafka Streams topology indexes topics to Elasticsearch. Having separate topologies seems to make it easier to reset them independently in case I want to replay state. All of this is glued together with Protocol Buffers, which are a great complement to both Kafka and Elasticsearch.

It is really nice to see Redis join this scene and to see more people getting excited about building applications this way. Looking forward to checking this out.
Not true at all. The security of the bitcoin blockchain is fundamentally based on mining; after the inflation schedule runs low enough that it's not the major component of mining rewards (which won't be for decades), miners will continue mining, but for the transaction fees instead.

One big hole in his claim is that a real problem for successful, and really all hedge funds to some extent- is scale. Yeah you might find a microcap out there that looks great but if the ADV on it is 100,000 shares with a <$200M market cap, its going to be really hard to invest a significant amount of money into it if you have even $100M in assets under management (which is considered to be a small fund).

As an individual with orders of magnitude less in funds, there are a lot more opportunities out there picking up the "pennies" that the bigger guys are just too big to get into. I have a strategy that mostly picks up small and microcaps, and have had market beating returns since I have run them the last 4 years. I can't find a reference to it now, but Warren Buffet in an interview talked about some of the ways he could easily invest up to a million dollars and have a margin of safety that should easily allow him to beat the market. The closest thing I could find describing it is this: https://valuebin.wordpress.com/2011/01/27/warren-buffett-on-...

This link, while it doesn't go into the methods, at least directly quotes Buffet on the subject: https://www.sovereignman.com/investing/warren-buffett-its-a-...
So... One thing I missed is, how do you mine Chia? Do you mine it? How much will there be... these are the questions, is it technically a cryptocurrency or just a digital currency?
Precisely so. At least for the Intel machines that have IME features. So all the enterprise, data-center boxes but not every laptop.

Edit: I read some more. It looks like this is going beyond what I thought and affects way more machines.
Hey HN, I made Float because I love discovering cool new links and websites.

I'll often save my favorite links somewhere in my bookmarks or in a note and forget about them, so I figured I wasn't alone in this and it would be better if everyone had a public profile to share them so that we could all enjoy and browse other people's finds.

This is a first version, but the basics are here: you can save your best links, tag them, follow people and get their links in your feed. Going to add "lists of links" soon.

I tried to design the site to encourage content and user discovery as much as possible, and will continue adding features going that way.

Let me know what you think!

Still a lot of implementation details to be revealed, but looks really interesting.
Can't really argue with the idea that people should make informed decisions–and part of this process should include discussing things that have happened to others in similar situations.

On the other hand, that's quite different from publishing personally-identifiable information (and the identifiably does seem to the sticking point here) about someone's health. You could, for example, present aggregate data, or ask the potential employees to sign some kind of data-use agreement if you want to show them individual data.
But a good education system should include not-so-demanding civics and ethics parts which mean attitudes, habits, and behaviors. This will decrease the competitiveness and intensity in the society in the first place.

Sure - in my case this would be a load balancer on Google Cloud configured through a Kubernetes ingress. All the public paths available on the Auth microservice would have to be listed explicitly. You have to be very sure in this scenario that only the public URLs are reachable.

I see the motivation for sending user passwords straight to AuthN, but I do wonder if on balance the dangers of correctly configuring a shared public/private service don't outweigh the dangers of relaying the password through your front-end (which has to be able to access private endpoints on the AuthN service anyway). If you really didn't want your front-end to touch passwords, you could have a tiny sidecar service that only exposes the public endpoints and speaks GRPC to AuthN.

Anyway, this is well into debatable "matter of opinion" territory, and I don't want to waste your time. Thanks for publishing AuthN - I'll keep a close watch as you progress.
Really??

The tone and focus of the two statements are entirely different and communicate completely different impressions of the creators relationship to the question/criticism.

I mean I don't really want to get pedantic here, but... I will anyways, weird mood I suppose:

My statement implies an understanding of the value of WARC and an intention to implement the feature, but tempered by a desire to understand the needs of the customer before taking on the task.

Their response indicates a lack of understanding of the technology (some of the honesty that I appreciate, fyi) and offers a non-commitment to implementing it, even IF they were able to understand it.

I'll admit my impression is also colored by their other responses, not simply this one in isolation.

Taking them together, the impression is that while they're willing to take money and start allowing you rely on them for archived data... they aren't going to guarantee they'll be around unless they make enough money to make it worth it for them to even both.

Again, honesty I really do appreciate, though I can't agree with the approach.

You may say that's what everyone would do, but I disagree, I think great products come from a focus on customer value and a willingness to do the hard-work to provide that value. I believe my statement communicates that far more than theirs.
> A same-datacenter round-trip takes 5,000 times longer than a main memory access, and 1,000,000 times longer than an L1 cache access.

This is a ridiculous comparison though. When have you ever seen a situation where a micro service was accessed over the network to fetch something that would have been in L1 cache? And yes, having a value "in memory" is faster, but in most cases these days things aren't "in memory", they're "in memory in memcached, somewhere in the cluster, probably not on the local server so you have to go over the network anyway".

Just out of curiosity though, I tested on our network. Our RTT between servers is less than half a millisecond. Our fastest service can get a cached reply back to the calling service in 35ms, whereas many calls are >100ms and some are much longer (e.g. initial login calls). It would take a lot of external login calls to noticeably (to the user) increase even the fastest service.

We also use Redis and memcached, and spread those across other services. Excluding specifically HTTP overhead and just looking at network latency, a few memcached calls which hit non-local servers in the cluster cost us as much in latency as one HTTP call would.

I am on the platform, and yeah they post frequently about looking for market neutral strategies.
It it really a free market though...

"in which the laws and forces of supply and demand are free from any intervention by a government, price-setting monopoly, or other authority."

It would be awesome if we actually had a choice of provider, however you're generally limited to whatever ISP's 'turf' you fall into.

EDIT: I just reread you comment and you're not claiming it's a free market <apologies>
or, maybe some folks just want an escape from stress / real life.

or, maybe they got hooked after being perscribed painkillers for an injury

or, maybe they're suffering from some mental illness

or, literally any number of other reasons besides some evil nation flooding the US with drugs and somehow 'forcing' citizens to take them.

The point is, you can choose to go after the suppliers, but the underlying problem is still there. Until that's addressed (mental healthcare, serious punishment for over-perscription, etc), we'll just see a new drug take the place of the old.
`r` is a little weird with its wide flat top, otherwise it's a great font. Would love to see Greek and Cyrillic support too.
I think a good place to start is principles.

Y'know, like if you're a nation who is always going on about democracy and freedom (who even starts wars that kills 100,000s of people for these ideals), maybe don't subjugate the majority and centralize socio-economic power into the hands of a tiny minority.
So why not just buy something safe, like a US bond?
The opioid rise is a problem, but the fact that we do still have tight regulation is what distinguishes US pharmacies from pharmacies abroad.

I can't (yet) walk into CVS and arbitrarily buy Vicodin, Xanax, or Ambien in the US because we know how dangerous it is and regulate it. In other countries, it's shockingly easy to get.
When I was a kid Aldi was for Gummibaerchen and Mirinda. Now you can buy a 3D printer - maybe I should get one and compare to the ones we make...

Is this referencing outside the US? I travel very frequently to both rural and urban areas in the US and have yet to find a place where I could not Lyft, but could Uber.

In fact... I have only been to one place where I could not Lyft, and it turned out I also couldn't Uber (very rural).
The UK was an example of consolidation resulting in terrible quality and limited choice. The "CAMRA" (CAMpaign for Real Ale) group is a result of push-back against this, and has been very successful: http://www.camra.org.uk/key-events-in-camra-s-history

Distribution all the way down the chain was consolidated — i.e Pubs — and was only remedied through legislation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guest_beer

The US is nowhere near the same setup, though, so it's doubtful it would end up quite as bad. For beer at least, every time there's a consolidation, there's an opportunity for a new player to enter the market they just left behind.

I don't know for sure, but is it appropriate to use gross GDP numbers instead of GDP/capita? When one is choosing which metrics to use, bias is introduced.
She 'makes' several aspect of her physique herself. I believe she has had plastic surgery, and I assume she works out and keeps a particular diet. Her moniker containing Cyborg suggests she sees this in relation to technology as well.

But most importantly is that she has the full freedom to do what she wants, and decide what is valuable to her. She does not have to ask anyone for whether a thing is 'questionable' the eyes of others, when it hurts no-one. This is a value that is quite strong in 'maker' communities.

Making is about you deciding what you want to do, and just getting it fucking done. How is entirely up to the person who does. Why is entirely up to the person that does.

The End of the Cult of the Founder
OK great. I was just afraid you were not aware of that effort and thus duplicating it.
It will be interesting to see how "discrete" thses GPUs will be. I'm assuming they will only be "descrete" in the sense that they are not on the same chip, but rather same package (via EMIB).

Either way surely this is a move by Intel to take away from Nvidia's consumer share (which makes up the vast majority of their income) as Nvidia make inroads into the data center market?
Sure. But also look up all the dark markets the FBI busted.
The link is incredibly light on actual content but this seems to be good news for AI enthusiasts as perhaps now we'll get a reasonable competitor to CUDA/CUDNN and their associated hardware for running GPU accelerated machine learning. Intel seems to be taking the ML/AI space seriously and this move seems very likely to be related. Yes I'm aware of OpenCL as I am also aware of it's level of support with libraries such as PyTorch, Tensorflow, Theano -- it isn't the first class citizen that CUDA is. While those libraries aren't perfect they offer the experience of writing the experiment on your laptop without a GPU, validating, then running the full experiment on larger hardware.

In my ideal world competition from intel would force NVidia to play nice with OpenCL or something similar, and encourage competition in the hardware space instead of driver support space. Unfortunately the worst-case looks something more like CUDA, OpenCL and a third option from Intel with OpenCL like adoption. :(
Isn't it cheaper to buy the server with that much RAM and colocate?

I went through open heart surgery two years ago April and opioid over-prescription was already a concern. After discharge I received a six day script for the lowest dose of fentanyl and a month of Lyrica. I have a freakishly high pain tolerance so I managed to 'stretch' the fentanyl patches out to nearly one month (each patch lasted roughly three days). Hindsight being what it is - I obviously made it through. Being down in it though, it was far far less than pleasant. Especially that I was supposed to be active and all the usual recovery stuff. It was a bit of no joke as far as pain load goes. I didn't expect to be completely pain free as that isn't life as far as I am concerned, it would have been nice to have taken a little bit more of the edge off. Round the pain off some.
Finally! Intel has a lot of catching up to do.

As GPUs continue to evolve into general purpose vector supercomputers, and as ML/deep learning applications emerge, it seems clear that more and more future chip real estate (and power) will go to those compute units, not the x86 core in the corner orchestrating things.
There will always be the hardcore who will not, or cannot overcome their addictions. But this is few.

Why not give them free medical grade heroin, in a safe environment?

* Keeps them off the streets.
* They no longer need to resort to crime to fund their addictions.
* Besides their appointed time to get their dose, they can lead relatively normal productive lives.

It will save $$$$ and also keep money out of pockets of organised crime.

Thank you for your kind words. To me that is a compliment of the highest order.

I will read the Mark Twain story you referenced in the other post tonight, and will share my thoughts with you on it later.

It seems we both see the forest for the trees with this issue, and I appreciate the quotes you've left me. They've given me something to chew on.
Diversification. The Chinese Govt. already holds trillions of dollars in US bonds.

I think if Snap goes south and wants to get acquired, Tencent would get first dibs. It would be in a better position to gobble up the company and get all those engineers who already have a ton of messaging app experience for cheap.
These engineers and C-levels of this company should be punched in the face.
Or domestically. White House Press Releases serve to inform, not propagandize.

>Abstract. In recent years, deep artificial neural networks (including recurrent ones) have won numerous contests in pattern recognition and machine learning. This historical survey compactly summarizes relevant work, much of it from the previous millennium. Shallow and deep learners are distinguished by the depth of their credit assignment paths, which are chains of possibly learnable, causal links between actions and effects. I review deep supervised learning (also recapitulating the history of backpropagation), unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning & evolutionary computation, and indirect search for short programs encoding deep and large networks.

Reading http://www2.lauterbach.com/pdf/dci_intel_user.pdf, there are two ways to debug over that connector; one using the USB protocol and the other using a proprietary protocol. If this uses the latter, that device, technically, wouldn’t have to be a USB device (but of course, it could still masquerade as one)

That PDF also says your BIOS must support this kind of debugging, and, for the ‘OOB’ protocol, your hardware must support it. So, your BIOS may be configurable to make this attack impossible, and your hardware may already be protected against it.
I can't wait for the twist in tomorrow's episode.
My understanding is that your computer computes the answer to a difficult calculation ahead of time and stores the output up to a specified size (ex. 1GB worth of digits of pi) . Proof-of-Space asks you to respond with a segment of the output at a certain offset. The amount of time given to respond is less than the amount of time it would take to calculate the output, and so by replying you prove that you had it stored already.
