The narrative is accurate.

There are many, many, many examples of people who go to a hospital and ask at every point whether the services being provided are "in-network" for their insurance company, and yet still find themselves being billed for "out-of-network" services because of some assistant to a doctor or someone who was consulted outside the patient's presence. It's a minefield, even for people with patience and a clear head, which doesn't describe the majority of people seeking medical care.

A quick search turns up a few examples:

This is a very common issue, so common it is receiving legislative attention.
I worked in another industry with an effective monopoly in a subset of the market. When setting our prices, we evaluated behavioral game theory, and determined that we could claim 60% of the gains produced by our technology innovations without upsetting our customer. As we planned for that financial model, we realized that GMO seeds had a similar ability to extract fractions of their productivity gains. We planned to investigate just what fraction they were extracting, and expected it to be a much higher percentage, as Monsanto doesn’t need to worry about upsetting a single customer, they could extract 90% of the gains, and any farmer who didn’t settle for those remaining 10% would be our competed by their peers. Does anyone know how much GMO seeds cost relative to their standard cousins, and how much the cost of growing each and the productivity of each type? The Tractor companies are simply following the seed companies models.
> This is all well-settled in the automotive world, why is JD 'different'?

Because laws were passed in the US that specifically allow these kinds of things (like customer repairability and modification) for cars. Those laws do not apply to tractors.
I use digital notes. If I need a sketch or graph, I draw it on paper then take a picture on my phone.

What constitutes a "road sign"? Do they mean traffic-related signs only, or also street markers, or billboards as well?
Something still changed. League of Legends at its peak wasn't quite as popular as Fortnite, but it was still roughly in the same order of magnitude (at least last I checked), and while people went "oooooh!" at some of the fancier or rarer skins, no one gave a flying duck if you used the defaults.

So something did happen. Could be as simple as a different target demographic, though.
Physical spaces are much more limited real-estate wise, whereas Google has as much space as they do page loads. Surely with so many consumers and producers, a much higher breadth of news can be exposed than is currently.
Not very related, but I found this excellent yet sad news story via HN search half a year back: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/christinekenneally/orph...

It's a long read but IMO was worth it.

It seems to be a long-running trend for Churches and similar religious organizations to do this sort of stuff.

One of the popular free-to-play tablet strategy games I tried a few years ago had a different variation on "bullying", and presumably known to the developers. There, you could use small free amounts of the numerous different currencies/resources/boosts (also purchasable with real money), spend hours designing bases in a multiplayer world, and... then pay-to-win griefers would come along and destroy everything you built, and violate whatever you were actively controlling. I imagine there were a lot of angry/frustrated deletions of the game, and also a lot of impulsive spending of money to be able to rebuild and defend what you'd just created.
Nowadays it's more valuable to create custom nodes to enrich the node-based editor library. Sometimes we write shaders from scratch if we need to implement some original lighting, materials, etc

I expected an article about how the JS environment is out of control and you should just use HTML. Instead it looks like another call to action to migrate the JS herd to something more shiny.

I'm hoping we have an anti-JS revolution and go back to HTML-only unless JS is absolutely-without-a-doubt necessary.

I was under the impression DP was usually used for getting the exact answer to certain classes of problems faster than exhaustive search. I usually see approximations compared to the ground truth dynamic programming answer.

Whether to use pub/sub or rest is entirely domain dependent.

So, who cares? Its an implementation detail. Just do whatever makes sense. The most sane systems I've seen make use of both.

> In an architecture driven by a message bus it allows more ubiquitous access to data.

Please stop mistaking design details for architecture. Lots of things allow more ubiquitous access to data.

Talking about this stuff in this way is just going to wind up with you replacing MySQL with Kafka and never actually solving any real problems with your contexts/domains.
"They don't need to make more, they're public servants."

That's pure tyranny. Stop it. People are paid what the market dictates, not what some government bureaucrat decides.
Also, it can be useful to remember that if you find yourself playing Devil's Advocate a lot, you should maybe check your pay stubs from the Devil. Even if you don't believe in the arguments that you are making, you still might be persuading others towards those causes. There are things to consider when advocating for opinions you do not personally hold.

Relatedly too, getting called in a lot to play Devil's Advocate by other people for sides/opinions that you do hold and care about can be an indicator that those people do not value your opinion and think you may be in the Devil's employ already. While they may not mean harm by it, it can be important to realize the emotional investment you are putting into the work will not be returned in how it is perceived, you might not be well enough "compensated" for that work, and should maybe renegotiate terms (or stop agreeing to it).
Exactly. And the Heritage Society goes out of its way to cultivate a bunch of peers, current Supreme Court Justices being the first and foremost of those peers.
>Why does hitting the enter key not "go into directory" or "open file"?

Because it has it's own shortcut for it, e.g. Cmd-O.

>I can't even see a path tree to know where I am in the filesystem out of the box

That's some kind of complain? There's a two clicks away setting to enable said path display, plus a one click away viewing mode (NeXT-style) that shows all previous directories up to where you are.

>Search, by default searches the entire system not the directory I'm in

Again irrelevant. I, for one, like it that way. Besides, there's a setting to make it search only the directly you're in (and a third, to make it stick to what you've selected before, either global search or "current dir" search).

>The default presentation is some weird list of random stuff from my system, recent files and temporary files and assorted irrelevant garbage.

Irrelevant, and not really random. Sounds more like a complaint from somewhere coming from Windows and wondering why things aren't the same (ignoring the fact that OS X did things before Windows, and has its own users to please by keeping its own way).

>What the hell are all these colors? Why would any sane person want to group their files by color?

For the same reason people use colored post-it notes and bookmarks, and color code things. Immediate visual identification. And "those colors" are part of tags, which allow arbitrary, not folder based, grouping of files.

In general, whatever...
I had a similar qualm, but this summarizes it better: "The story of the tulip bubble boils down to a story of fools and greed, Goldgar says. And that’s why it sticks with us." There's something about reducing this to just greed. What I personally want, is a story that can contextualize that greed better, explore it more, and not just end with "that's greed for you" (paraphrasing).
I don't know about tractors, but there's nothing legally preventing you from fixing your car. The problem is technical: the diagnostic tools may only be available to authorized dealers/repairpeople.

That said, despite all the crying about people not being able to work on cars any more, I just don't see it. I change my own oil on my 2015 Mazda, and I can easily change other parts on it too. Maybe there's certain brands that intentionally throw up roadblocks? But I don't see it with mainstream Japanese brands; these cars are very easy to work on.
Regarding tracking, I work for rural electric utilities, and we're looking at LoRaWAN for tracking. $30 chip, 15+ mile range in rural environments. Plus it's low power (can run for a year on a battery), and it should meet your low radiation requirement since it doesn't transmit often. Just food for thought.

That's one of the things about tuple spaces[0,1,2] that was described in the book Mirror Worlds[3]. The author gives a lengthy description of a tuple's life. In practice, it really depended on what pattern you used to process the tuples.

My impression is that, at least partly, it's a result of the trim wheel being connected through a very long mechanical linkage to the tail, while the motor is right there. The pilots also don't have great mechanical leverage to turn a fairly small wheel in the direction they have to.
Automation and mechanization have always been about replacing dehumanizing, backbreaking, mindless toil. Maybe not intentionally, but that was the result.
That's not a symptom of health care being a natural monopoly. That's a symptom of a lack of price transparency.

1. Laws can correct this.

2. A large segment of consumers paying out of pocket would also result in competitive pressure for hospitals to disclose prices.

Fwiw, I don't have this problem with smaller medical clinics.
The irony here is that you already propose to disturb this layer. Even though the technology is pretty new. Despite that you already not only want to penetrate this layer, you want to drop radioactive waste in there.

Btw what about Countries like Japan. They can't do that for obvious reasons. Will the US take this waste? I mean, they will keep producing it. And what about the next country that comes along. I'm sure they can pay good because it won't be every country that can afford this procedure. What about the former soviet republics (currently already used as dump by France for example)? They can't afford that. Will the US take that too or will they pay for it? Maybe the EU because they are closer and are more afraid?

And yes I agree with you that it's irresponsible to store that on the surface. It's even more irresponsible to produce even more of it. But hiding it away in the hope that some later generation in the future will still remember where it is and not touch it, not do anything to the terrain around it or dig it up to misuse it is not only naive, it lacks imagination. You should read more SciFi. It teaches you to think in time frames that are relevant here. Looking back at our own short history may help also.

> I think it would be more interesting to read about people who know how to use it, have used it, but now choose not to.

I use react all the time, particularly at my job, and it's not that I choose not to use it now, I just choose not to use react for some projects. For simple UI I reach for server side html templating, with a sprinkle of CSS and Vanilla JS. For UI library code that could be shared with React and non react projects, again I use vanilla js. For big complex UI like a dashboard with graphs and charts, and bunch of options and nobs, etc. I will use something like React. There's a time and place where each tool shines or is the better choice.
Vitamin A: widely available in plants not sure why this is listed.

B6: also widely available in plants

B12: Should be supplemented, most people get this from fortified foods.

B12 deficiency is common across both vegans and those who eat animals.

D3: main source is the sun. again, deficiency is common across both vegans and those who eat animals.

F: This is common outside of the animal kingdom

K2: Found in soy

Amino acids: also found in most non animal foods.

Creatine: For most people your body produces enough of this to function. This can be supplemented.

Carnitine: your body uses the amino acids lysine and methionine to create carnitine.

Taurine: not essential

Heme iron: not essential and actually may be detrimental

CoQ10: commonly found in vegan diets

CLA: True, not found outside animals. CLA is controversial as there isn’t clear evidence on wether it is good or bad. It is not essential however.

Cholesterol: Your body makes it.

The most common deficiency among vegans is B12 I believe.

There are millions of people thriving on a vegan diet. They consistently test with better biomarkers than non vegans.
Many of your favorite celebrities are vegan, many athletes as well.
The largest associations for both the U.S and E.U recognize vegan diets as safe and adequate for a healthy life.

Yes we evolved to be able to eat many things and thrive. That doesn’t mean we need to.
> I personally struggle with embracing immutability. Maybe that's because I'm more of a performance guy. Even though I really want to make my code more maintainable, and thus I started reading a lot more about FP in recent times.

Honestly performance is a non-concern for me. I worked on a React app that ran on IE9 without any major performance issues and almost no code tuning. It's not even worth thinking about. However, avoiding immutability for the sake of maintainability and developer experience is something I would never give up.

“The greatest shortcoming of the human race is our inability to understand the exponential function”

https://www.albartlett.org/presentations/arithmetic_populati...

“Growth” as the politicians and the lobbyists push it is simply not sustainable.

But both “the left” and “the right” have their agendas not to let you discuss or act on that.

"Bacteria grow by doubling. One bacterium divides to become two, the two divide to become 4, the 4 become 8, 16 and so on. Suppose we had bacteria that doubled in number this way every minute. Suppose we put one of these bacteria into an empty bottle at 11:00 in the morning, and then observe that the bottle is full at 12:00 noon. There's our case of just ordinary steady growth: it has a doubling time of one minute, it’s in the finite environment of one bottle.

I want to ask you three questions. Number one: at what time was the bottle half full? Well, would you believe 11:59, one minute before 12:00? Because they double in number every minute.

And the second question: if you were an average bacterium in that bottle, at what time would you first realise you were running of space? Well, let’s just look at the last minutes in the bottle. At 12:00 noon, it’s full; one minute before, it’s half full; 2 minutes before, it’s a quarter full; then an 1?8th; then a 1?16th. Let me ask you, at 5 minutes before 12:00, when the bottle is only 3% full and is 97% open space just yearning for development, how many of you would realise there’s a problem?"

Note that the before that point in the talk he explains that for any "steady growth" you can find the period in which what you observe doubles, i.e. any "steady growth" has its "doubling time."

Everyone agrees that this is a problem. The debate is about how to solve the problem. One side says, "the government should just make our decisions for us." The other side says, "the government should intervene enough so that consumers have the information they need to make informed decisions on their own."
It turns out that the problem isn't capitalism or communism, it is arseholes, and they are evenly distributed across all economic systems. What we need to develop is some sort of arsehole distraction system to keep them away from anything important or fragile.
No they don't.

The fundamental challenge in search is that you have two limited resources: display place and user attention span. Google won vs other search engines because they were better at figuring out what users were looking for and putting it higher in the listings.

Anyone arguing the reverse - that Google is driving opinion, not the other way around - is saying that they're massively sabotaging their core feature yet no competitor has been able to exploit this.

Fox News obviously has a large TV audience, but I'd be curious how that demographic maps to google usage. And it's worth remembering that it's not a "fox news vs cnn" comparison vs a "fox news vs the sum of the less-right-wing channels" comparison.
So, I'm nearly certain that I've not touched that setting, so the default is then "This Mac", which again, is what the parent is pointing out.

Without saying that the parent is right, that you've customized your setting does not invalidate the point the parent is making: that it is a bad default. (In fact, your customization might be proof towards it being a bad default.)

I'm not sure James Stevens Curl is a good person to go to for compelling images of architecture. Check out his website: http://www.jamesstevenscurl.com/james-stevens-curl-architect...

He can sort-of draw buildings and architectural details but basically he doesn't really have a great eye for architecture. If he did, he would think twice before making the tedious old right-wing arguments in the book. He's an example of someone who is conservative in way that's not grounded in practicality. Disliking the way 20th C architecture played out is one thing, trying to convince us to return to pre-modern architecture is something else.

By the way, it sounds odd to describe the content of a book as "one level down" from a review of that book.
I lived the first 18 years of my life as a healthy child that ate no meat. I now eat meat. Why? It's tasty and everyone else does it. Should we stop mass murdering sentient beings? Probably[1]. Is hunting and killing on an individual basis okay? I think that should be left to every individual to decide for themselves. If you don't want to kill animals, then don't. But don't stop me, a fellow animal, from doing it.

I don't know about correlating output with commands, but if you're looking to correlate output with input, one option is to stick an ID on every message, and, for messages that are created in response to other messages, also list which one(s) it's responding to.

I would say that loosening requirements is also a reasonable option. You can't assume that anything downstream will be up, or healthy, or whatever. On a system that's large enough to benefit from a message bus, you have to assume that failures are the exception and not the norm. And trying to get a system that acts like that is the case is likely to be more expensive than it's worth. For a decent blog post that touches on the subject, see "Starbucks Does Not Use Two-Phase Commit"[1].

My best guess is that you'll have to pay and register with Apple to create NFC tags which will be attached to the payment.

Of course, it's up to Apple to implement and administrate it, they are generally pretty sensible about this kind of stuff.
Your assertion doesn't even make 1st base by simply considering cashier = owner, as is the case of many small businesses; it conflates one possible usecase as the only valid usecase.
That article is just a wordy sort of high level view of React with almost nothing about why someone might not use React.
A couple of big reasons don't like message buses (but open to hearing about why I'm wrong):

-All "requests" will succeed even if malformed

-Couples producers/consumers to the bus (unless you put in the extra work to wrap it in a very simple service)
