That happens with the current system

Some years ago, I met a doctor on vacation - bit of an ass, but whatever

Last year, I found out he’d gone to prison for “performing procedures” that he was mot present for, including some whilst he was on the beach in Fiji with me!

So, the federal government already has procedures to catch cheats at every level.
> I'm not so much arguing against your hypothesis. However, I worry that optimizing for life span might not mean that people are healthier.

I think that is quite a bold criticism that is 10 years ahead of its time.

The examples of euthanasia and expensive procedures being discouraged are statistically insignificant at this point in time.
Learning to write with a fountain pen is sort of like playing a violin but on a small scale. Presure, direction, speed, stroke, and technique all play a huge part.

Considering the tax loopholes and deals the super rich get, I actually have no problem with the small mom/pop shops doing what they can to get a break on the fees.

This is not possible without socializing the entire economy. At some point, you have to pay doctors, nurses, staff, equipment manufacturers, etc.
Speaking of liver toxicity, acetominophen/tylenol and alcohol can kill you. Not in the common case but if you are maxing out the acetaminophen for a prolonged period and drink and stop drinking, you should get educated on the dynamics and side effects. I was shocked to only find out about this midlife when my wife was on painkillers post surgery for an extended period and was using both painkillers and alcohol to self medicate. And her doc noticed some concerning liver results which later turned out fine. Be careful out there!
I'm curious why you don't carry cash?

There's probably nothing wrong with taking 800mg of ibuprofen at least for a short period of time. Ibuprofen can have some negative effects from long-term use though.

Regarding opioid based pain-killers... for all the negative attention they get, they're also usually fine for most people - when used as directed and, again, for a short-period of time.

Not everybody who takes a few Oxycodone tablets winds up addicted and then reduced to using heroin to get their fix.

>"I think what you are articulating is half true, or more so, half of the picture. People love big blockbusters more than ever. Game of thrones, The Avengers, etc. really show that it is a bifurcated market."

People still consume that sort of media, but the amount of time they spend consuming media like that is small compared to the amount of time they spend consuming independently produced media. Compare how many hours a month they spend watching Hollywood blockbusters and how many hours a month they spend watching independent creators on youtube or listening to independent creators music on soundcloud.

Some people, mostly older people are still stuck in the past. They avoid specialized independent content and instead consume corporate entertainment (engineered for 'universal appeal' by finding an LCD) with netflix, hulu, or even with cable subscriptions(!). But it's clear that times are changing. There was once a time when corporate media had a near total monopoly on people's attention, but those days are now long gone and will never come back.

Definitely varies by individual, and by the nature of the situation. My personal experience, as somebody who considers himself to have a pretty high threshold of pain tolerance, is that I never needed any of the Vicodin I was prescribed after wisdom tooth removal... but I can't imagine how I would have survived without Oxycodone in the first week after rotator cuff surgery.

With regards to sit-ins, if you block off public transportation, like to a bridge, it makes sense to me that some people may die for it. In a city people aren't independent and critically depend on infrastructure and services working, so a sufficiently inconvenient protest is in a sense rolling the die on a variety of bad outcomes.

It makes the ethics of protesting more severe.

While superficially similar, Void is not really close enough to Arch that it would make sense to have developed it as an Arch derivative. There is currently Artix Linux that fills that niche (comes with runit or OpenRC).

It's also a fallacy to think that not working on Void means these people would work on some other distro. They do it because they want to build Void, not because they want to build "a distribution".
Can someone explain this:

This configure test uses a C program to detect that #include <$try_header> works for some value of $try_header, like alloca.h: note angle brackets. After detecting it this way, why would we need to switch this to #include "..." for the sake of Musl, to get the actual program to compile?
> Sure, but adequate and auditable documentation need not involve the patient nor money. Just a "here is the medical care we dispersed, on this date, to this person, it took these resources, these people administered the care." No following up every record for payments, no arguing with insurance companies over the price.

This is naive. The source of income (whether it's insurance companies, the government, patients) are not the people who actually buy medical supplies for the hospitals. The simplest way to commit fraud is to charge the insurance company (in a privatized system) or the government (in a public system) for large amounts of care for fake patients in fake cases, which is only caught if an audit shows a mismatch between claims and supply, e.g. a hospital claims that it dispensed 5,000 doses of a $10,000 drug but can only show a purchase order for 100 doses (leading the hospital to fraudulently get $499 million).

You would think that the way to deal with that issue is to vertically integrate, i.e. the hospital issues orders for medical supplies which it doesn't pay for directly, and the medical supply company is compensated in some other way, probably by government funding. But this turns into a government-run market and it has all kinds of issues. Without pricing as a guide, hospital doctors over-prescribe supplies whose real price is far higher than older but similarly effective alternatives. Drugs which the hospital didn't order, but are absolutely crucial for patient X, are either completely unavailable (if the official supplier doesn't stock it) or tied up in medical bureaucracy (to get a special exemption for a special delivery of the drug). The quality of patient care suffers as a result.

Devs shouldn't have to spend hours setting up build configuration just to get started learning React, or every time you have a side project you want to try out. Granted, you _never_ needed Babel and Webpack _just_ to use React, but for a long time every React tutorial started with "First, we'll learn how to set up Babel and Webpack". Now, they can just say "Run `npx create-react-app my-app`", and immediately get a solid project setup that works out of the box.

Nothing prevents you from still writing entire Babel and Webpack configs by hand if you want to, but it shouldn't be a prerequisite for actually using React (or any other framework).
I appreciate it for sure. I can see how it impacts my Karma score. Note to self. Be nice.
Sounds ideal - they can even remind the doctors to wash their hands before touching the patient.
I found the VAT place of supply rules to be inconvenient but reasonably straightforward to comply with. Several billing platforms will collect VAT across the EU on your behalf, or there are third-party solutions that will integrate with your own payment gateway.

I have no idea what the situation is in Poland, but there's no such thing as a "felony" in my country; an honest mistake on my tax return is an honest mistake, not a criminal offence. I'd only be criminally liable if I was unreasonably negligent or acted with the deliberate intent to deceive. As long as I a) record the customer's country for each transaction and b) fill out my VAT MOSS return accordingly every quarter, the tax authorities (HMRC) are perfectly happy.

I have friends who don't carry cash simply because they realized that it has been years since they spent any.

I do carry cash, but the only time I recall spending any in Canada in the past couple of years was when I dropped some into a charity donation "hat" -- which I knew I would be doing, so I could easily have brought some along for that purpose rather than carrying cash around all the time.
How about this:

#define NOTNULL

If you're using Objective-C, then nonnull is your friend.
It hurts me to know that I can't cheaply buy a spectrometer, colorimeter, spectrophotometer, densitometer, spectroradiometer, turbidimeter, or similar. There are toys sold with essentially the same level of complexity that go for roughly 1% of the price. It seems that silly games are far more popular than chemistry labs.

Consider a 3-channel colorimeter. You need a pair of tri-color LEDs, a squareish glass test tube, a power source (a USB cable or battery holder), a chunk of black plastic, and a multimeter. In place of the multimeter, a USB interface can be had via a very cheap chip. Let the user move the tri-color LED, and you get a turbidimeter too.

The whole OLPC XO laptop, with that custom screen and support ASIC, cost only about $188 to make.

The problem is popularity. Almost nobody wants to study science. Meanwhile, we can get Pokemon Power Action Pikachu for $19.95, or Nerf Laser Ops Pro (2-Pack) for $41.25, Boxer (Interactive A.I. Robot) for $64.99, and so many other useless things.
It's also be a interesting way to steal gas and convert it to $ (Where someone else owns it) and pay no taxes and skip environmental regulations, no transport fees etc.

I'd be an interesting theft, setup a rig in a National Park or something.

In Mexico and Nigeria they do it the old school way.

I grew up in France, where schools don't allow you to use anything else but fountain pens.

They don't teach you how to use one - to me, it's always been the same thing as using a ball pen, except you trade the convenience (you have to change the ink cartridge) for practicality (you can erase the ink with special eraser) while keeping some style (it's still ink, not pencil, kept for drawing).

Getting a new pen felt weird at first, but just like a new pair of shoes, you end up accustomed to it.

So it's interesting to read about fountain pens in America, where people talk about having to "learn" how to write with a fountain pain. It's seen as such a special, luxury or just nerd thing, while in France, it's just something common nobody really pay attention to.
We already have a healthcare system within the US where billing seems to mostly not happen. So, presumably, it isn't completely alien and foreign and something America would need to steal from elsewhere.

last:: -- I assume, means 'most-recent'.

maintaining pre-calculated 'most recent' is very useful (as long as I can ask 'what was most recent, say, yesterday at 1pm').

Ask HN: How can I make the most out of high school?
I'm in high school. Soon, I will be in college. Before, I’ve focused mainly on studying and pursuing solitary passions, but not doing social activities. However, I now feel that I'm missing out on typical teenager life, and I'll have regrets when I'm an adult.

I just watched an anime following a group of close friends in a band as they pass through high school. I've seen people online state that the anime reminded them of their own high school lives, but it doesn't remind me of my current life at all; it's way too carefree and fun.

My online friends have told me that they don't have close friends either, so my life is normal.

Today, I saw this: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/aanfmf/whats_a_very_common_thing_that_you_just_cannot/ecuao12. Granted, the person is saying that they don't relate to looking back on high school. However, the topic is about common things that one can’t relate to, and some repliers said that their own HS lives were carefree. Now, I again feel I am missing something.

I like programming, and I've become interested in type theory. I doubt that other people in my school care about this stuff.

I take art class, but it's a solitary activity between me and my teacher, not together with other students.

I don't know how to make close friends. I can talk to people, but I can't suddenly form a close relationship with somebody. Friendship can’t be forced; it develops naturally. Yet, I've never made a close, loyal friendship, only casual friendships.

Before, I've been looking forward to college so I can study my interests. Now, I feel afraid of ending high school.

Is it normal that I don't have close friends and that I'm solitary? Am I missing out on anything?

What hobbies do you advise me to adopt that I can do in a group, with camaraderie?

Will college be the same or different than high school? Can I have the same kind of youthful fun when I'm an adult?
I wanted to make this submission longer to better convey how I feel, but I had to cut it down to 2000 characters (including the title apparently). Therefore, it may come across as terse and abrupt.

It comes from the OKR obsession of Google.

You "weight" your different outcomes so you can come to a single score were the outcomes are weighted based on their priority to the organization.
Sample size is related to the conclusions you can draw. If their goal is that ibuprofen has this effect, then 15 can be enough given the specific effects they are getting. If their goal is more complex, say that ibuprofen reduces fertility, that's be a lot harder if the effect wasn't massive and well reproduceable.

eh,

WEll - we had an ESB appliance which would tie into the various HL7 capable systems such that we could integrate for certain services, and provide interfaces/applications which turned an ipod touch into a quick duty/assignment/nurse-call/alert/control device.

Basically the intention was initially to integrate the ipod touch as effective a remote to the hospital.

Tie in with RTLS, assignments, results, orders...

So, yeah - it worked pretty well. Had support from nurses and doctors, but it was too early...

We were told by too many people it was too expensive and too small and nobody would want to interact on the phone.

We knew the ipad was coming... but failed to convince people.

About two years afterward, the iPad came out - we had already folded and released what did open source to OpenVista, and then Dr. Chrono was able to get traction where we couldnt.

We did, but Ascom were generally viewed as being ugly and the "blackberry" of handsets, and had their own issues. I can't recall the details too clearly now - but I think at that time, Vocera was also the new sexiness in the market and so most hospitals were going Vocera.
Yes, this is why my anecdotes are proof only I see reality accurately.

In seriousness, this is a lazy claim when you could have actually addressed the study in question. Since you did not, I assume you have no supporting observations.
Is opening all beaches to the public really in the best interest of...the public?

Should no natural spaces be private? We allow other parcels of land to be private in name name of conservation, why should a beach be any different?

Why can National and State Parks require entrance fees (and thus be operationally private though nominally public), but not privately owned land?
It's like the second name everyone comes up with. There are at least five build systems (or adjacent) named bake. Probably a few orders of magnitude more.
As an Australian I always struggle with the idea that healthcare would cost money above a couple of dollars for things that aren't essential.

But almost every American I've ever spoken to who hasn't experienced decent national healthcare seem to have a bizzare view that "if it's free then obviously it will be abused", not realising that it's just as open to abuse as a system where end customer are also involved because shockingly customers arent usually the ones committing the fraud.

It genuinely feels like theres a view that some people might not "deserve" healthcare, and the way we determine who "deserves" healthcare is not the very humane "well they need it, therefore they deserve it" but rather "capitalism. Definitely the answer."
