So you end up with an overpriced used Macbook Pro 2015 (looking at eBay) that is comparable to a Thinkpad T440 or W540?

Why would anyone pay 3x to 4x for a device that is a PITA to get most common Linux distros onto, and is challenging to repair? I don't see the value provided, even comparing weight and dimensions...
Is that relevant, if your apps only communicate with encrypted messages (https only and so on)?
It's quite difficult to simplify an existing language, even when adding a feature could theoretically simplify a language. For instance, higher kinded types are simple in principle: it's just removing an arbitrary restriction about what you're allowed to pass to a type constructor. However, when adding them to an existing language it doesn't always work that way. In the limit of removing type system restrictions you end up with dependent types, which are very simple in terms of the number of type system rules that they require, but try adding them to Java and you'll get a monstrously complicated beast.
This kind of comment might make one wonder why not just use a sessionId to begin with but JWT in this case is still useful in a microservice arch because a token which has been revoked from one high security microservice may still be valid for lower security microservices: It gives each microservice the option of deciding what kind of security they need to provide... They may not need any revocation list; maybe the JWT on its own is sufficient; they just keep accepting the token until it expires naturally.

The token expiry determines the baseline accuracy of banning across all services.

The differences in the prices you mentioned are astronomical...

I'm already getting angry here to be charged $50 instead of $25 when the doctor "touches" you during some basic evaluation. But at least they tell you about any massive amounts coming up before any treatment happens.
safer/exploitable by whom ?

Because if you are named Google, for instance you have a very big safety to know pretty anything from anyone thanks to your spy network everybody use, want to use, buy from you, more and more.

However if you are a "typical citizen" well... You have less and less choices, for instance you want a classic mobile phone? Good luck to find one. And even if you find it did it still can operate? In many developed country we start talking about cutting GSM/2G network leaving only 3G backups and invest in 4G massively...

Do you want a car that you and only you can control? Hum... Ok... You have few options: buy a history car (feasible if we do not need to move too much until we close gas stations transforming them to recharge stations) or create one from scratch and good luck not only for the technical part but also for the needed bureaucracy to get them legally usable on roads.

That's the problem.

Today dictators does not need strong power anymore: why forbid traditional non-connected, non-autonomous cars? You simply stop to produce them. With actual centralization is super easy.

We are NOT in a free market capitalistic society, we are in a kind of planned economy not much different than Soviet Union's one, only instead of a formal dictatorial government, with clear powers and symbols, we have a vague corporatocracy without symbols and formally "constrained" by some kind of "democratic laws". And that's is even worse than classic dictatorship because with them you know your enemy, now you can't really know it and you can't fight an enemy you do not really know nor see.

That's an interesting measure - wouldn't it be biased by the fact that household income in the US is "artificially" inflated compared to other countries, because healthcare costs need to be paid from income?
I think the knew it had to be built. If Windows lacked a word processor it would be fundamentally uncompetitive against Mac.

Some anecdotes related in the comments are scary. I'm wondering, how is the situation for a software engineer working in a big company (say GAFA in silicon valley). Suppose you broke a leg skiing, and need surgery and various medical exams. How much are you expected to pay? what's the administrative overhead? same question for dental care.
So you have insurance but it doesn't cover stuff when you are actually ill? Does your insurance policy actually spell stuff out so that you can predict what will or won't be covered?

Note: I'm from the UK and find the stories about US healthcare insurance grimly fascinating....

Huawei: 'Deep concerns' over firm's role in UK 5G upgrade
I haven't given up on it yet, but my hobby project is a portal for free live music gigs in my local area. It's working well enough on Wordpress, but real life always seems to get in the way of my attempts to move it to a standalone product. Probably because it's always my go-to project when I want to learn something new, so I've ended up with multiple unsatisfactory versions because I've not had any experience with the language/framework.
Those industries probably bake the cost of estimating quotes into the manpower cost already. Hospital bills would ostensibly be even higher simply to provide quotes.

But I believe his core point was up front. When your arm is off, you're not going to ask for, or even reject, a quote.

I would anticipate though that once quotes are known, and posted to glassdoor-like services, one could develop an app where you point to your arm, select "it's fallen off" and then you are provided the cheapest hospitals for your issue and their ratings.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to properly separate private and public? If hospitals can be either Medicare-only or no-Medicare (using Medicare as the name of a future broad/universal system much larger than Medicare/aid is today) then hospitals would chose to be Medicare in proportion to how many are covered. If everyone (including those who chose a private insurance) pays a full insurance premium for the public system on their taxes, the private insurers’ patient lists would shrink very quickly, and so would the number of hospitals that could survive by providing treatment to those patients.
So looking from outside it looks like “hospital prices” is just another one of the problems that would be solved by a tax funded public universal healthcare insurance?

Example (Sweden): I pay a full public insurance through taxes, and I have a private insurance via my employer that lets me cut some waiting times for certain procedures from 90 to 14 days. It’s an expensive way for my employer to make sure I’d be back to work quicker than I would otherwise be. Obviously, this is a luxury few use or need so the number of hospitals that provide this care is extremely limited (a few percent).
So, why do they have to cut the field in three pieces? Lack of a football-field-sized-and-shaped space outside the stadium? Doesn’t look like the reason, looking on iOS Maps (which has newer imagery than Google Maps for me); the new field is almost a full pitch length south of the old one so they could slide it away (but not fully out of the new stadium) to the position of the old field.
The spam filtering isn't perfect (can't think of any false negatives, but some false positives. I hedged with "potentially" above) but I receive very little spam so I just check the folder when I get one. And this is with an old school catch-all domain setting too.

It's not sane. With insurance, was hospitalized for a heart condition. ~$45,000. Found no problem in testing, so they kept ordering more tests, sending in more cardiologists. Kept hearing "I know you've said this several times already, but please repeat for me...". Each time I repeated the story to a different doctor there was a large bill. Clearly the hospital new how to pad the bill.

I eventually left "against doctor's advice" though there was a doctor there that agreed with me leaving. Pursued lower cost versions of remaining tests recommended on outpatient basis.

The funny part that time was there was a "patient billing advocate" in the hospital, who was magically never available over the three days I was there despite repeated efforts by us each day.
I think there's a balance to be found. Here in France people will go to the doctor for a common cold, and immediately load up on unnecessary medicine at the pharmacy. I'm sure that if they were asked to pay even 5E out of their pocket it would significantly reduce the shortage of GPs and the lower costs.

Beside the issue with human trafficking, I still wonder why the issue should be about Italy only. Europe is unable to take a stand on migratory issues, and Italy alone should bear all the burden.

The situation in northern Africa is horrible; is that Italy's only and sole responsibility? It's easy to blame my country, but it seems harder to help us. We'd be happy to host more people if we could share the burden. Old treaties don't work for this kind of humanitarian emergency.

On the phone in advance, was given some hint of what could go wrong.

Basically, it depends on how the provider "codes" the treatment. You can contest the code, i.e. say you should have been billed for something other than what they are calling it. There is apparently a very wide range of things similar visits could be coded as.

“The US” is not a entity unless you’re saying we should convert to a single payor system, then set prices based on rest of world pricing.

I can tell from first hand experience. Healthcare companies, set prices by market. Specifically, by what price that market will sustain. It just so happens that the US can sustain the highest prices. You know being unregulated and rich af and all.

This is how all industries/companies set prices btw. What you’re saying, It’s kind of like saying, I want New York City to base real estate prices off median home prices in the Midwest because as a buyer I like those prices better.

LDAP is really overlooked by many and I think people are surprised by the amount of software that offers LDAP support.
completely depends on your insurance plan...something like this will definitely be covered, but how much you will pay depends on your deductible, how much you’ve already contributed to your deductible, what copay or coinsurance you need to pay once you meet it, and your out of pocket max (max you will pay for anything in a given year)

I have supplemental “accident insurance” since I’m relatively young and healthy and the biggest reason why I’d end up in the ER is due to a physical accident. With this insurance it covers more of what I would pay in this situation than my insurance would alone.
Updated now.
Absence of evidence is only weak evidence of absence.
You don't need JWT in this case. You can use a normal token with short expiry and some mechanism to keep it fresh as long as the user doesn't exit the application.
It’s worth pointing out that even the author admits that the newer Stingray II has 3G/4G support. I think this is probably related to known insecurities in the AKA protocol, as researchers have recently found [1]. It looks like call interception isn’t so straight forward anymore, but IMSI capture and approximate location capture are alive and well.

So unless you can verify that only Stingray I is deployed in the vicinity, I think it’s a stretch to say that the Stingray product “doesn’t care” about anything other than 2G.

Show HN: SirixDB – Storing and Querying of Temporal Data (Java and Open Source)
I'm developing a storage system for versioning data at the subfile level, especially well suited for SSDs due to its log-structured COW nature. It implements a novel versioning algorithm called sliding snapshot, a diff-algorithm which makes use of our stable record-identifiers and optionally hashes, another diff algorithm for importing similar XML-documents as a versioned resource as well as novel XPath axis to navigate not only in space, but also in time. Recently, I've implemented a higher level, asynchronous REST-API with Kotlin (Coroutines) and Vert.x in a seperate module.

The system is heavily inspired by the filesystem ZFS.

My goal is to put forth the idea of a versioned, distributed storage system to easily support temporal analytical tasks, which are best applied to a series of revisions in order to analyse how the data has changes. Other tasks might simply include easy undo/redo operations.

This applies to quite a lot. Banking, legal, infrastructure, political systems etc.

It amazes me how the US is still arguing how archaic districting laws should work, how to have elections with integrity or manage without paper checks or fax machines.

I realize there are politicsl/historical and cultural differences but there is a combination of exceptionalism (“the US is so special we can’t just look at France and imitate”) and resignation (“yeah we want that but we cant have that because it would never work because X”) surrounding each of these discussions. The US is pushing boundaries in so many areas but when it comes to evolving society in a way that requires broad agreements, there isn’t much to report on
How much I would pay is depend on insurance plan. How much is payable can be stated. Even insurance needs to publish their payouts for each of published data of hospitals.

We had to pay our ~$8,000 deductible, everything above that was covered.
We paid by negotiating a one lump sum payment and got 25% off. Had a relative with more cash flow make the payment all at once then paid them in installments. Was told by a doctor later that they only get paid 75% of what they bill by the insurance company, and that considering that, the 25% discount made sense. Tried for a 30% discount but 25% was the best we could do. I pre-negotiated 25%, then had the relative with more experience in negotiating close the deal and try for 30%.

There was a substantial upside. The cardiac event happened early in the year, and everything covered by insurance for the rest of the year was 100% free. We were able to pursue some things we probably wouldn't have otherwise. Simple things like having more cough syrup on hand became a no-brainer as cost of visit and prescription was guaranteed to be $0

Although vague concerns aren't themselves actionable, the actions that could be recommended in both cases would be research. To look into whether "too many computers" is actually causal and what might be done about that. My guess is "No" but if the investigators thought we need to check that's what they'd recommend.

But most often what's needed is smarter machines, not less of them.

Inadequate engine performance during take off is a periodic cause of problems. Research was done into whether airports could add markers so that pilots could tell if their acceleration was less than expected. That went nowhere because humans don't have an accurate sense of acceleration or time passing. Today new Airbus jets integrate their position over time and will warn audibly "Check acceleration" if underperforming, long before V1 (maximum abort speed). Meanwhile a common underlying cause of inadequate performance is entering incorrect air temperature, modern Boeings will delete input temperatures that don't resemble the measured temperature at an air intake when the engines switch on. Pilots must enter a plausible temperature and try again, or perform a fully manual take off. So investigators now might recommend one or both of these countermeasures be adopted, or that the research be done again knowing these options exist.

What the EU could do to stop slave camps and deaths is to allow refugees (which most EU countries technically accept, but take a long time to vet) to come in through normal channels by applying in their place of origin or as close to it as possible.

Sadly, that would remove an important rethorical issue from politicians, and noone wants _that_.

I don’t know, in Germany, Spain, Italy and probably most other EU countries we have rules that forbid various types of hate speech. For instance in Italy you can be charged for spreading “fascist ideas”. Not exactly sure if US has that? That would provide an objective framework for these discussions. I do think Patreon has a brand to defend and they do what’s right for them, but then they should be much more clear and upfront about it. I don’t think banning individuals is ok, I think updating your policies, communicating them clearly and then banning those violating them with upfront anticipation would be the correct way here.

Also, looking from outside, challenging various ideas in US today seems to be tabu. For instance, nobody dares to even slightly criticize the current feminist movement/s. I don’t know, no movement I have studied in human history has been 100% right. But again, if Patreon does not want anybody to criticize feminism they can be upfront about it, put it clearly in their policies and that would be ok, they own their platform after all.

IMO any "old enough" and complex enough software suffer some kind of "age&complexity" problems... No matter how you design it, unix choose simplicity and we see that today no real unix exists anymore (yes, they do exists per name, but in fact they do not follow unix principles), ITS, Emacs, LispM, Alto, ... choose integration and completeness and except Emacs they are essentially dead... Modern software try to choose modularity and if you find a modern complex enough software you know well how messy pachyderm is...

Personally I choose (recently) Emacs as my main computing environment because even with it's many problems (there are and recent evolution solve some and add others) it's the most effective computing environment I have ever found.

So in conclusion I dream a "modern Emacs" with an EXWM that play nice with any kind of GUIs (it gets a bit worse recently for floating windows or floating windows apps change for the worse I do not know exactly), I dream a damn coherent and complete MUA instead of my actual super-spaghetti-code mess mix of mbsync+notmuch+afew+homegrown crappy scripts + ... just to have a damn good modern and efficient email solution NO ONE, web(cr)app(y) UIs included seems to provide... I dream a GuixSD in org-mode in my own personal config so I have an "my_desktop.org" that contain anything from OS to Emacs config and I can export, change, replicate it in a snap... But that's a bit of a dream for now. New nice stuff arrive (doom modeline is really nice, for instance) but change the entire ecosystem, perhaps re-writing it in Guile Scheme... Well It's unlike to happen more than a timid POC by few smart guys...
