Seems that you are agreeing with imagining and use debugger to verify is a lot more efficient. And for verification, print is more direct than orchestrating the breakpoints and then print with debugger's syntax (or gui navigation).

This comment sounds, to me, borne of hatred and scorn more than anything else. Carefully chosen words, like “ludditism” and “dogma” do more to evoke feelings in people, and less to inform us. This comment is a true disservice to the conversation.

There’s a mental cost to every tool you learn how to use. It makes no sense to try and learn every programming tool, you’ll never get any work done. I see no reason why we should scorn people who leave “IDE” or “debugger” off their own personal list of tools that they work with. Calling it “ludditism” is name-calling, same as “dogma”.

I’ve used Visual Studio, even for extended periods of time, with its fantastic debugger. I’ve used older IDEs that weren’t as good. I’ve used various text editors and environments. What I don’t like about using a debugger is how rarely it helps more than the alternatives—so every time I need to use it, I need to learn how to use it again in whatever environment I happen to be programming in. Perhaps if you’re writing code in the same environment, the calculus is different. But no need for name calling.

Same with IDEs. Somehow, by some series of accidents, I use Emacs for about 95% of my coding. There are a couple key bindings in Emacs which I’ve set to match the default keybindings in Visual Studio or Xcode. But because I’m often programming in different environments, using Emacs instead of Visual Studio means that I can get by with learning fewer tools, and spend that effort elsewhere. No need to call it ludditism.

So here was my take. Fitness influencing is a microcosm representative of the bigger picture on Instagram. IG is tailor made for advertising. It's visually sumptuous, low information density, one-to-many communication. Surfing IG doesn't engage the higher brain functions. It's all sentiment driven.

Marketers love that. So the platform has attracted people with marketing-oriented brains. So now we have this whole trend of influencers going on there, and basically just being marketers for one product or another, and making careers and businesses out of it. And IG is so good for that, that most of what you come across nowadays is turning out to be sponsored commercial content.

That's what I got from the article, and it's a great point, as multiple influencers actually say in the article, it's a great place to make posts that have commercial intent, but they don't even use social media, or consume Instagram, they just post their advertisements.

IG is basically becoming cable TV, one-way, minimal interactivity, people constantly pushing advertisements at you. All that's changed is some guy in a suit now assigns $X of his annual marketing budget to some roided up IG influencer and then gets on with his work day.

I'd love it if there was some platform where spending money actually reduces your reach, that's a platform I would use, specifically because it'd be a terrible tool for marketers.

Here is my fickle opinion of course not reflecting of market shifts.

A couple of years ago I was a CTO of a midsized company which had a misfortune of building the main product on top of Oracle DB (decision was made before me).

Oracle the database is great: performant, scalable. A bit pricey and complex to manage but that's acceptable for what it delivers.

Oracle the company is absolutely horrible. I've never dealt with anyone worse than Oracle.

Just one example: we accidentally turned on a feature called "advanced data guard" or some such. The DB is large and complex, it was a mistake of one of our DBAs who reported it right away. We never used the feature and could prove it with logs. Nevertheless Oracle demanded us to pay close to $1m or they would shut us down: we would have to discontinue the use of the entire DB in 30 days which was impossible.

The funny thing is that once ADG is turned on it cannot be turned off. Which made me suspect that such traps were created on purpose.

We ended up paying less than $1m but in the form of purchasing their cloud services. Apparently that's how their sales people get commissions.

But, dear Oracle, I've learned my lesson. Never again will I use anything with Oracle name on it. No company under my leadership will use anything Oracle. Not even Java or MySQL. Regardless of the technical merits of the product. Oracle is too underhanded to be trusted.

P.S. We also decided against using the Oracle cloud services we paid for. We just let it sit there, never even logged in. I'm sure Oracle reported their cloud as growing.
Which means that they shouldn't have used the word 'invariably'.

I'm also not keen on their use of the word 'survivor' in the same paragraph.

Single-stepping is just one use for a debugger. Breakpoints are far more useful. Inspecting local variables by clicking through the stack is generally faster than adding print statements.

A lot of people also have never used a debugger that isn't terrible to use. Most debuggers fall into that category.

As for all of this "read the code first and get a better understanding" talk - this is obvious highfalutin' bullshit. You're human, you made a dumb mistake somewhere, the debugger will help you find it faster than your brain going on an excursion.
I've read this for many years now but I've often wondered why The Orphan Drug Act is not used by Big Pharma. After all once a bacteria becomes resistant then that particular situation is similar to an orphan drug.

The Orphan Drug Act of 1983 is a law passed in the United States to facilitate the development of orphan drugs—drugs for rare diseases such as Huntington's disease, myoclonus, ALS, Tourette syndrome and muscular dystrophy which affect small numbers of individuals residing in the United States.
"Also, can anybody explain why the CDC doesn’t mandate reporting?"

Because a great deal of this is done at the state level. Working on these kind of problems, there's a very difficult balance of reporting requirements, agreed upon definitions (especially not just what you have but where you got it), various stakeholders, etc.

And the CDC collects a lot of data even if things are universally reportable. And there's a lot of ongoing improvement.

Thanks, reviewed. Sorry about the shilling comment. It was referencing to something the commenter themselves said, and others have also mentioned, given his recent comment history on several threads going back over a week:

Sorry, but I will not provide more information about myself than I have to. It doesn't matter anyhow since I will be accused of being a CCP _shill_ 50c poster anyway.

But I am confused about nationalistic flamewar as distinct from discussing the topic of the original post. Its veracity was actively questioned by the commenter in several comments, who asked for proof. Since the welfare of large numbers of people is at stake, it’s important to make sure whether this is happening or not. I am sure it would be the same conversation whether the nation was China, India, USA, and so on. If this is indeed not happening, that is very important also. In any case I thought I was directly addressing the topic. I am personally very far from nationalistic so I want to understand better how my comment comes across.
The corollary to how anger manifests itself in the one who is angry is how it's perceived to the one on the receiving end of the anger. I can't find the reference but I believe it was in Pinker's "The Blank Slate" where he discusses the effect, citing other research.

It boiled down to the fact that because an angry person is not in control of their actions the recipient's theory of mind about the angry person is effectively thrown out the window and thus one can't predict what the angry person might do. Consequently your best bet is to exit the situation as quickly as possible to minimize any risk to yourself or loved ones.

> I haven't seen evidence that their off-gassing actually accounts for a meaningful portion of harmful emissions.

I assume you read my post at the top and saw this:

A Carbon Tracker study in 2015 found that fossil fuel
companies risked wasting more than $2tn over the coming
decade by pursuing coal, oil and gas projects that could be
worthless in the face of international action on climate
change and advances in renewables – in turn posing
substantial threats to investor returns.

I also assume you've done research and seen these:

(https://www.theguardian.com/sustainable-business/2017/jul/10...

and

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2013/nov/20/90-compa...)

Just 100 companies responsible for 71% of global emissions, study says

and

"There are thousands of oil, gas and coal producers in
the world," climate researcher and author Richard Heede
at the Climate Accountability Institute in Colorado
said. "But the decision makers, the CEOs, or the
ministers of coal and oil if you narrow it down to just
one person, they could all fit on a Greyhound bus or
two."

Half of the estimated emissions were produced just in
the past 25 years – well past the date when governments
and corporations became aware that rising greenhouse gas
emissions from the burning of coal and oil were causing
dangerous climate change.

Many of the same companies are also sitting on
substantial reserves of fossil fuel which – if they are
burned – puts the world at even greater risk of
dangerous climate change.

So, assuming you have done that research and have seen those, would you mind clarifying what you are saying?

> But we cannot control that.

At the very least there should be accountability that the deliberate, malicious actions of these (more or less) 90 people have put the entire species at risk. The point here is that they had enough warning and time to diversify to nuclear and renewable energy, but instead of doing that they covered it up and put us in an impossible position.

Me, too. Diagnosed with chronic insomnia that I've had since I was born. Average about 4 hours of sleep a night. Longest I've been up is 4 days straight, and I also never feel sleepy. People are always surprised to hear that there's a difference between being "sleepy" and being "tired" and that even when you're absolutely drained sleepiness can escape you.

I'm still young and healthy so I feel "fine" most of the time, even when I'm extremely sleep deprived, but I am a little worried what the effects of my sleep deprivation will be on my body and mind in the long run. Without Zaleplon I can't sleep. I could lay in bed for days and never fall asleep.

Having seen her speak in person at IDWeek, I think an important thing to recognize is that the amount of work that went into treating her husband was pretty damned heroic - and it's not clear that that's not the standard for phage therapy.

I literally have a standard "Why phage are a problem", from the perspective of an infectious disease epidemiologist whose been super-interested in phage for like...a decade.

1) There's no such thing as a "broad spectrum" phage. They're organism specific, and that means not only would you need to keep a phage library on hand, but you'd have to do a lot of diagnostic tests. That's going to be both expensive and tricky. There are treatment guidelines for things like sepsis right now that are basically un-doable with phage therapy because of the time it takes to tune a phage library.

2) Phages are living things. Not only is that a weird regulatory framework to be in for a drug, but it also means that you need to be able to keep phage alive. In contrast, antibiotics are inert.

3) Phage therapy is also relatively new in the West, which means there's just less of a R&D infrastructure behind it.

There have been people working on commercializing phage therapy since I was in undergrad (I'm now a tenure-track professor). The problem is it's hard, and antibiotics are so much better as a treatment that there's kind of a ceiling on the excitement that they can generate.

Also, I would like to note that phage therapy wasn't only ignored due to unpatentability. A couple other reasons:

1) Antibiotics were superior in basically every respect. It's hard to justify decades of sustaining research into the fussy, expensive, edge-case alternative to something that works amazingly well.

2) Phage therapy was used in the West. Due to the technology at the time, it had a tendency to, well, kill people, due to contamination with bacterial endotoxins.

3) It's not clear phage can be turned into anything other than a pretty bespoke, custom tailored product. Even in the East it's not doable "at scale" in the way we talk about antibiotics.
The rest of that paragraph: most commonly transposition of the great vessels.

From my read, yes, sometimes not everything is mirrored. But, also, a problem with the cilia can be a cause of the organ reversal. This will cause additional health problems.

Indeed it is well-known (albeit apocryphally for most), mostly as the source of the rejoinder "the plural of anecdote is not data" which is rather more well-known among those who do analytics and is more correct at least in regards to the common definitions of "anecdote."
This is the major problem, in my view, with phage. You cannot treat until you've not only diagnosed the infection, but tuned the phage library being used. That's slow, even at major hospitals, and a major problem in places where diagnostic availability is limited.
> Why is this going to the public before being accepted by scientists?

The usual reason for someone doing that is that they know their model won't be accepted by scientists. That's what I'm betting on here.
