Yeah, except the kid mentioned in the parent article which divided clinicians as to whether or not their quality of life allowed for their decision to pull the plug.

He was 'seriously sick', but he had a certain quality of life that was unusual for ECMO patients.

...The boy was fully conscious, doing homework, texting friends and visiting with family. But after two months of living in the ICU, he was diagnosed with untreatable cancer that made him ineligible to receive new lungs.

Clinicians were deeply divided over what to do next, Truog said. Some wanted to stop ECMO immediately because its original goal — a bridge to transplantation — was no longer possible.

Others argued that even though he couldn’t survive outside the ICU, the boy seemed to have a good quality of life on ECMO, and his family and friends “derived benefits from his continued survival,” Truog wrote. They argued that the family should have the right to continue this form of life support, just as with dialysis, ventilation or an artificial heart.

A third argument arose, Truog said: If leaving this patient on ECMO was appropriate, then in fairness “why don’t we put everyone with respiratory failure on ECMO?”

For the parents, Truog said, it was “unbearable” to choose a day or moment to turn off ECMO, because they knew their child would immediately die.

Clinicians devised an alternative the family would agree to: They decided not to replace the ECMO oxygenator, a part that needs to be changed every week or two when it develops blood clots. After about a week, the oxygenator gradually failed and the patient lost consciousness and died, Truog said.

The solution “allowed him to die in a way where we didn’t feel like we were choosing the moment of his death,” he said....
That's good and valuable, and it's laudable in its own right in a way that basketball isn't (since open source is a contribution to the intellectual commons) but it's not the same thing as working with someone. A lot of people only publish the projects where they were happy with the results, and often it's hard to tell how long someone took or what kind of help they had when they were writing something.
Do you have any documentation?

That's the thing so often misunderstood about the term "toxic masculinity" - it's not about what it means to be a man, it's about what society at large expects men to be.

Wouldn't it be more manly behaviour to stand up for yourself, and go home on time? It surely wouldn't be very masculine to sacrifice time with your family just because you get a bit of passive-aggressiveness from middle management.

I'd say the concept of what is and isn't masculinity is almost too nebulous to assign it good or bad qualities.
This has been seriously grinding at me lately. Google is pretty much useless for me personally as a search engine lately. I find it so frustrating that I just end up not wanting to search for things.

- It ignores that I tick "Australia Only", and shows me endless US results and international results despite me KNOWING there's Australian results for the thing I'm searching for, eg products in a store. I have to use site:.au in nearly every search.

- It insists I mean some other word that my query was close to, and doesn't give any way to say otherwise. Sometimes it shows a "Did you mean ____?" but a lot of the time it just doesn't.

- The sheer amount of spam in the results now is mind boggling. Searching for lots of common products or projects now is like trying to find that one email you know is in your spam folder in Gmail. Pages and pages of crap until you get the page you're after.

- and so much more I could write a book

I feel like Google Search is no longer about giving a user the page they want as quickly as possible, but to get a user to click through as many bullshit ad-filled content farms as they can BEFORE giving them the real result purely to make more money for Google. Or at least some point somewhere between Hanlon's Razor and "We know it's broken but we won't fix it because we make more money this way"... and closer to the later.
How should you do your job so no employee has access to that information? I’m sure they could have been more careful, but the risk cannot be completely eliminated without going to impractical extremes...

The page mentions providing a compatibility build:

> “The proposed APIs are all new additions and can theoretically be introduced in a completely backwards compatible way.”

One thing they want to avoid is the whole Python 2 vs 3 distinction that went on forever. I’m not entirely sure these differences are that significant but having to merge in all of the data/computed/watch etc options into a single setup() function would require quite a bit of refactoring.
the logic of your argument was " Wealth redistribution doesn't work and never has.". there wasn't much subtlety in that. Are you saying that Western societies don't work and never have worked?
"Google Maps seems to be stuck in this sad state of being almost, but not quite, good at being a map"

Perhaps this is a general phenomenon of our society that is increasing, being almost but not quite competent, because producing the "minimum viable product" is the most economically efficient approach and due to general improvement in data analysis and optimization, companies are getting better at substituting some exploitation of cognitive biases for unnecessary competence.

> Right, but you're mitigating an extremely marginal attack (a purely passive interception of a login) and enabling a somewhat more realistic attack, and for what? If you're just doing it to fake out 2FA requirements, sure, do whatever. But otherwise, just use 1Password passwords and skip the TOTP theater.

Passive interception is not the only possibility. How many password dumps show up each year? Having TOTP enabled, regardless of where it is stored, helps mitigate that threat unless the password that is leaked can also access whatever is storing your TOTP secrets. But if you're using a password manager and reusing passwords, I don't know what to tell you.

Personally I use a TOTP implementation that lets me move the backing store as a file. It's not stored in my password manager, but it's available to me should I need to change phones. That seems like the best of all worlds.

The problem with the way doc hours are handled is: there's zero back-up. Whether private practice or group or hospital, everyone is utilized at maximum. I had a colleague once get terrible food poisoning - and had to come in anyway. They crawled in. We saw them, stole a bed from the trauma surgeons' on-call room, stuck an IV in him, and told him to sleep.

When he emerged two hours later, clinging to his IV pole, we were grateful for the manpower.

That's not counting all of our "unofficial hours". You officially work, whatever, 9-6. You're packed with patients for those hours, though, with almost no time to chart, so you go home and chart ... and on a daily basis at home, you're catching texts from colleagues for informal consults and requests to see patients the next day. Your "off" hours aren't off - and if you have to take call, and end up driving back to the hospital...

EM "handles it better" (a phrase I'm loathe to use) because they have legit shift work, with no continuity. No one calls them for a consult; they're not responsible for anyone after they leave because all their patients are short-stay, they don't have to see "every patient on X roster," they just have to manage their ER while they're in it. They manage shifts because of features more-or-less specific to their specialty. A handful of other specialties share those features, and manage to do the same. But not most.

Hell, I chose to pursue my specialty specifically because it lacks emergencies. I never wanted to wake up in the middle of the night post-residency; no one pays you enough for those hours (you're generally not paid for those hours.)

Sure, you could write one line of code to read it in as maps and arrays, but at some point you need to validate your input from the outside world to convert it you your domain objects. Using a dymically typed language doesn't magically make that problem go away.

Yes, they can? An HOA is added to the deed agreement. A typical HOA will be allowed to put a lien on the house if you do not pay them the agreed upon fee, and -- crucially -- whatever other fees they determine. Thus, if an HOA wants to kick you out for any reason, they mostly just have to continue to fine you until you can no longer pay, at which point they ask a judge, and take the house.
It's Angular all over again.
Svelte is really nice because it makes the mundane easy (some say magic) and the tough stuff like reactivity and animation manageable.
Why don't they just call it a new framework if its undergoing such a major overhaul. This only makes me feel better about picking react at my current company as now I view this framework as dangerous for building anything long lasting.

Ask HN: Software to annotate web pages with stylus?
Maybe it's just me, but when I read things like [1]. And then read the HN discussion about it [2] and see more notes about it [3]. I just want to save all the three tabs (+ more I found via searching on DuckDuckGo), get the materials locally and potentially edit the text by typing, be able to highlight it and to be able to use my stylus for writing and doodling in the margins.

Right, this is another downside to renting - landlords will tend to optimize for cost. So when a refrigerator or dishwasher breaks, it will be replaced with something reasonably priced. In my house, when the dishwasher breaks I can choose to replace it with something inexpensive, or I can spend a little more and replace it with a really quiet one that I can’t even tell is running (BOSCH are whisper-quiet, and totally worth the extra $$).
No. It was 1 GB:

"after considering alternatives such as 100 MB, the company finally settled upon 1 GB of space, a figure that was preposterous compared to the 2 to 4 MB that was the standard at the time.[3]"

"On 1 April 2005, exactly one year after the initial release, Gmail increased the mailbox size to 2 GB, advertising it as 2GB plus"

There are too many loopholes with holding property. You can create and diversify among enough companies and eventually you won't have to pay tax at all.

No politician will vote for this because they know where their bread is buttered. It would be suicide as they would find out when they lose every large donor. I doubt we'll ever get people into office that would vote for anything to disadvantage property holders.

Even if you vote it in through a referendum, I expect a judge will crush it through some weaselly interpretation of the constitution or other precedent. California in particular has had several major referendums reversed by the courts. Will of the oligarchy, not that of the people.

I've never quite understood the notion that languages like Python and Ruby are amenable to fast prototyping. Ultimately, you wind up just having to carry complicated type information in your head rather than write it all down in your code, all whilst the compiler utterly fails to help you in any way in case your memory ain't what it used to be.

I'm sure those languages and their ilk have advantages for prototyping, but I agree, mandatory typing in other languages isn't a burden. If you already have to reason about what arguments are acceptable in functions, what objects can receive what messages and what those messages should contain, you already have typing — just inefficiently stored in short term memory.

Those who are the biggest proponents of these languages as useful for prototyping are also not the ones who rewrite their code in type-safe languages, so being able to add type annotations for the sake of their colleagues who eventually have to turn these prototypes into code upon which a team can collaborate can only be a useful thing.
Code gets parsed too!
I think they're asking for a source on the specific claim about Microsoft employees selling bugs on the black market, which is what I would also like to see.

I don't need to be convinced that security bugs should be on a need-to-know basis during the responsible disclosure period, that seems obviously prudent. Anyone not working specifically on security can learn about the details at the same time as the wider public.
> If you doubt it's possible for a _mature_ product, remember Kinko's?

Yes: it's now called "the copier place" - still frequently shortened to "Kinko's" - because FedEx is where one goes to ship packages (or where one avoids going when they want to ship packages, if they've had any experience there).
The current stock price is the value of one stock, selling on a specific date, at a specific time, with a specific number of shares outstanding, at a certain trade volume, as compared to other options one can purchase in the market.

Multiplying that stock price by the number of outstanding shares provides a number known as market capitalization, but it is not THE value that an organization provides to society.
Generating data this way is extremely difficult. The true population characteristics of prices are unobservable, we can only with with samples of the population. This means that any attempt at generating data is highly likely to add errors that are difficult to quantify. This is a fundamental difference to disciplines where ML is most successful: in finance you can’t meaningfully generate new data, you can only work with what has been historically recorded, and that is often not relevant to how the market will behave in the future. You can always generate more cat images for a ConvNet to learn, you can feed it photos from multiple angles or even 3D imagery. None of this is available for market data unfortunately.
Yes, and, just to keep this clear: that debugging (or unit-testing-for-typos) time is coming out of your prototyping budget. Your Ruby program will fail to run for stupid reasons the first time you run it, which is not the experience Java and Go and Rust programmers have. I just remember when I first picked up Go, after about 5 years writing Ruby exclusively, how amazing it was that all my Go programs "worked" the first time I ran them. Obviously, they had bugs. But they didn't blow up for stupid reasons.

I'd been a C/C++ programmer for about 10 years! I guess I just forgot that compilers can catch typos if you let them.
Your comment made me think of how astonished I was at the numbers of elderly in the South Bay when I relocated here. You'd think those folks would have cashed out and moved to a tax friendly state with better weather, but for some reason they've stayed put.

I think you can get the vocabulary from online sources now (Norvig's talk alone is a pretty good starting point). I agree about its cultural importance, but if you wrote GoF'y code in 2019, in any language, people would look at you AbstractFactoryFunny.

This is one of the things that made me dislike angular. If your are changing the entire API and syntax then it's a new framework. Don't steal the name of an existing framework just to steal the SEO. It's dishonest and makes it harder for users of both frameworks to search.

except the shareholders

And the boss, who looks good because his team works so hard.

The real story here is the issue of incentive structure and coordination games. If one company sends their workers home early, they risk being outcompeted by another that keeps workers late. Companies could attempt to coordinate in order to mandate sending people home early, but then a defector stands to profit immensely.

Even if we were to pass laws mandating shorter work days, companies would find ways around it using contracts or temporary workers.

You might point out that some companies do offer a lot of flexibility and relaxed hours. These companies can do this because their productivity isn't strictly tied to hours worked. Other companies don't have that luxury, however, and the pressure to work overtime will always be there.
When I was a youngin', I used to create meaningless shortcuts all over the desktop using those PIFMGR icons (https://i.stack.imgur.com/I1YqC.jpg).

I think kids and adults aren't so different; we all just really want to collect and stare at colorful juicy berries—er, "apps"—on our screens (re: the research that turning them greyscale makes us look at them less.) Adults just have a greater need for rationalization toward practicality on top of an entirely aesthetic desire, and thus download apps with nice icons (or toolbars containing nice icons) that seem like they'd do something useful... and then just never use them.
Well, with React you can "opt in" when searching by simply adding "hooks" to the search term. Such wasn't possible with Angular back then

IMO the problem is that web development education is often very informal, if not just straight up on the job. A lot of accessibility is to make links <a>, buttons <button>, tables <table>, lists <ul> or <ol>, etc. Append alt text as needed.

The problems come up when people see default <button> styling and then go off and make it a <div> instead. Nobody really teaches why this is a bad thing, you certainly won't find it in some random web tutorial on a blog from Google search. But if enough kludges like this happens in a code base it becomes pervasive tech debt in lots of tiny places, which is possibly the worst kind of tech debt.

I don't think it's impossible to educate engineers to do this, the problem is that we don't really educate about web development in the first place.
There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what a JavaScript framework is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
