In the past I was a developer working on a EHR system.
I was laughing when I read
"There was a column of thirteen tabs on the left side of my screen".

This is a really sad truth. Not only for physicians but also for other workers who have to work with an ERP system. At least here in Greece I have not seen until now any EHR/ERP that has good UI/UX.

Most of the time we was just building copies of physical forms or simply expose most of the fields of a huge entity in openEHR. Without automating anything.

I think that a big factor thats data entry process takes longer is because instead of hand writing something, now they have to type it or search for a check box to check. At least here in Greece I don't know any physician who can type as fast as he/she writes by hand.
There's a lot of room for error in this study - I wouldn't draw any conclusions based on this.

The point is that people who already have a CC permit are more likely to vote a certain way, and the valid forms of ID are deliberately chosen with this in mind to get more of those people to vote.

One could make the case that the CC permit is more secure and this should be allowed, but that’s not how the decision is actually being made.
This is a good point, with the caveat that it's roughly 5 miles to two hospitals north of the Fremont factory. If traffic is terrible, an ambulance should be called; otherwise, a Lyft vs ambulance will make no difference.
Fair enough, I don't doubt they are trying to bullshit their way to riches, my comment was in reply to people who say it can't be done because of performance issues and such.
> There are times to discuss facts and times to discuss moral preferences.

Not in politics. Facts about politics are useless devoid of moral context. "The Republican Party is the party of Lincoln" is both true and utterly meaningless.

This is different from, say, sports, where you can talk about facts without invoking a moral context. Politics is different. Very very different. Elections have enormous consequences. Lives are at stake.

> I just chose not to share them in this venue, as it's beside the point.

It's not besides the point.

They're correct though. If we _don't_ want this information being publicly available, then we need to change the laws so that it isn't. Going after the app developers is the wrong approach.

Medical software still has huge rooms for improvement. Combining complexity with bureaucracy will just result in issues, never mind that in hospitals the sheer volume of porting things is a recipe for keeping legacy systems alive and plenty of technical debt. Good luck getting rid of you MUMPS system. Or dot matrix printers (AFAIK still required in Germany, as some forms require a literal carbon copy).

On the other hang, as with travel agents, it might be that the old mainframe-based legacy system is better than the Windows/Web-based replacement, UI-wise.

And never mind the software, against the ever-changing requirements of the state and insurance companies, the IT gods themselves struggle in vain.

Let's say you operate a low margin business, such as a gas station. All numbers are before tax.

For the year, you spend $1,000,000 paying for fuel, convenience store supplies, electricity, wages, etc. You get $1,050,000 in revenue from your customers, for a fairly realistic margin of 5%.

Now let's say you run a software business. You pay $500,000 in electric bills, computers, wages, etc, and collect $1,000,000 in revenue for a margin of 50%.

Would you rather live in a society where the gas station pays MORE tax than the software business? This would be the case if you taxed revenue instead of profit. If the revenue-tax rate were 4%, the owner of the gas station would be left with $10,000 at the end of the year, and the owner of the software business would be left with $460,000. Bringing these numbers back into normal, profit-based terms, the gas station owner would be paying an effective tax rate of 80%, with the software business owner paying an effective tax rate of 8%.

If businesses were taxed on revenue instead of profit, low margin businesses and capital intensive businesses would be punished disproportionately. Businesses often face unplanned expenses or loss of revenue. This would have the effect of forcing businesses to raise prices to compensate for the increased risk, and would force lots out of business. This reduced economic activity would be bad for consumers, producers, the government, and society as a whole.

Individual people's income taxes cannot be treated this way, because the closest analogy to "business expenses" for a person's lifestyle is their cost of living. If cost of living were deductible it would be highly gameable and ripe for abuse by numerous parties.

> What if I just can’t avoid that flight, or cut down on driving? If you simply can’t make every change that’s needed, consider offsetting your emissions with a trusted green project

> we are still decades away from commercial flights running on solar energy

Offsets need to be a bigger part of the conversation. This article buried it at #10, behind a bunch of changes no one is likely to do. It is so incredibly cheap, they should have brought it up earlier in the article and give exact numbers in order to result in more personal actions.

I'll quote you some numbers to show just how accessible offsets are for people who fly. A rough estimate is about 1% of the ticket:
- SF to San Diego: 68 cents
- SF to New York: $3.87
- SF to Paris: $8.43

Driving is similar, to offset a gallon of gas it is about 9 cents, tack on 2-3% more than what you pay at the pump.

I understand that it isn't ideal to pollute then clean it up [0], but this is a much more practical solution than asking people to stop traveling. The cost is so low that just about everyone who is doing the flying and driving can afford it.

The concern is that by putting a price to clear your conscience for a bad behavior you will induce more of that behavior [1]. I would argue that personal travel isn't very correlated in this manner. How many people cut back their travel now because of their emissions? Very few. Would the average person who hasn't cut back suddenly start traveling more? Doubtful. It's not like they will suddenly drive for fun or it was factoring in on their vacation decisions [2]. So while I would be hesitant to put a price on all bad environmental behaviors, I think travel is safe.

> Social scientists have found that when one person makes a sustainability-oriented decision, other people do too.

That's good news! First make it easier to take an action, then make it easier for it to be public. That's why I'm working on an app that is a personal pledge to balance the negative impact of your travel.

While carbon offsets exist, they are an infrequent action that cost a lot at once, and are opaque. We will make it more frequent for smaller amount of money, give a scoreboard of your continued impact, and help make it visible for inspiring others to join.

> Single-threaded performance is a toss up and depends on work load.

I would actually say the exact opposite is true. Single threaded performance is much more reliable and every single application can use it. Multithreaded performance is much more workload dependent, and there are many applications that can’t fully utilize it.
You're suggesting buying pre-charged sun juice? That seems less helpful.

TFA suggested you can have much less by recharging it, and did not suggest the fluid expires ever (suggested otherwise, actually). It holds energy for 18 years, but can be used in cycle forever.
>I think that your idea that this is illegal is pretty novel.

Tell that to the California Department of Heath Care Services...and the 49 other states who have similar regulations and regulatory agencies in place.

Lyft/Uber giving rides to people in no way means or suggests those rides are legal. And there is a differnce between non-emergency transportation and emergency transportation...but it is all highly regulated. Still doctors and drivers should both know these laws that affect them directly. If a doctor is dumb enough to put an employee with a workplace injury in a rideshare, the onus is on the driver to deny the ride and tell the rider they are licensed/insured to take a patient to the ER and they should call 911...that doesn’t happen because ride share drivers are not professional drivers who actually know the laws that regulate them.
Not sure “intended interpretation” can be used to describe anything in the Republic.

The Republic is written to guide human souls out of the cave. Can the curious readers find the truth themselves in the story of Er upon careful examination? Is Er a philosopher? Does a philosopher need rewards described by Er? Can a philosopher choose an inconspicuous life (especally after the disussion of the philosopher’s life earlier in the book)? Can you take a story given in a book as the truth without examination after prose was denied place in the Republic?

All is up to the reader.
Curious what the relationship will be like with Pivotal now. It would be a little odd if Vmware makes something that competes with PKS.
The threshold of required disclosure is based on what's material to the public company involved. This is an accounting concept that scales up as the company is bigger. But sure for many companies $84MM would be material.

I think the GP uses the MacMini as a "hack" to be able to back up the NAS cheaply with Backblaze's unlimited personal desktop backup offering (there's no official Linux client, imho):

And use their GUI program on MacOS and sync that remote NAS storage folder.
Anecdata, but I worked several years in infrastructure projects (and in the course of that cut numberless pipes, cables - both electricity and communications - and what not), the basic issue in my experience was the sloppyness with which the drawings of the utilities layouts were made or the use of "unreliable" references.

A typical one, is the indication (on the drawing) that a cable is 30 cm from the border of the sidewalk, but in the - say - 30 years since that cable was laid down the sidewalk has been enlarged by 40 cm AND a new cable has been laid down at 30 cm from the new sidewalk AND this other new cable has not been added to the drawing (or it has been added to another drawing by mistake).

So you go there, actually find "a" cable 30 cm from the sidewalk, believe in good faith that it is the one on the drawing, and next minute you cut the one now under the sidewalk.

It is only a few years that GPS positioning is used for cable and pipes layout (which should give better "absolute positioning") but the issues about mis-labeling and mis-reporting (given also the number of different companies, particularly telecommunications ones that may lay new cables) have not changed much AFAIK.

We once had a set of bored piles (Ø 1000 mm) for the foundation of a sustaining wall miss a high pressure large diameter (Ø600 mm) methane pipeline by millimeters (the drilling rig bit the steel pipe covering, making the actual metal of the pipe shiny).

The explanation was that the people making the drawing and maintaining the pipeline took as reference the milestones of the road (that were replaced because a curve was added some kms before and shifted by 100 m) and gave our project the green flag because we were almost 100 m away from the pipeline.

>Why should we care whether they are making a profit or not?

Because it is generally in everyone's best interest for companies to invest in themselves rather than increase margin at all costs. Growth is good. Many companies would simply go under if you tax them on revenue.

>There are so many ways a company can legally and artificially lower its profit numbers

Then you try to cut those off as much as possible. Like most things in the real world, there's no perfect solution, but we weigh the pros and cons and make a decision.

(My uncle is a shut-in with no ID, and a friend of mine didn't have ID for over a decade but otherwise lived a normal life, her husband had ID/driver's license, she took the bus everywhere, and was self employed, so she never felt a reason to get one until she got divorced)

Because there's nothing in the Constitution that requires you to be "connected to society" to vote. Nor is there any provision that says you must be "motivated" (motivated for what exactly??? The things that motivate me are different from the things that motivate you). The Constitution doesn't require you to be employed or even have shelter. The Constitution purposely doesn't say "only people who have HN commenter VLM approved lifestyles are allowed to vote" because the whole idea of "freedom" is allowing someone to choose to live as weirdly as they want to.

>yet they want to impose their active dis-motivation upon us all by voting

No they don't want to "impose dis-motivation" on anyone. Even if they did, that's their right to do so. I don't appreciate a Christian "imposing Christ" on me, and some may vote candidates that want to turn America into a theocracy, yet I don't arbitrarily decide Christians don't get to vote. I also don't want white supremacists candidates to get elected, but I don't arbitrarily decide that white supremacists don't get a right to vote.

Most people who live as shut-ins don't see it as a problem, not my choice to live like that, personally, but I don't tell other people how to live their lives.

It really starts to depend on the details. If there are 10,000 words and you use 5 of them, that is 1.1x more than 12 characters where you only use lowercase letters, numbers, and shifted numbers. Tweak the allowed symbols, length, and your dictionary and you can make either one look better than the other.

I think there are probably less than 10,000 words that people would choose for their password, and that people use capital letters... maybe, but don't use 12 character passwords (8 more reasonable) so it could really go either way.

I always find it grimly amusing that it's generally portrayed that the Soviets would attack first. Of course they thought that the West was planning an attack on them and given Soviet history they were just a bit paranoid about being attacked.
