I was just going through and adding ratings to all the Metallica songs I have in Google Play Music the other day.

Not a single other album gets all thumbs down. It's shocking that not only are their worst songs on that album, but also that there's not a single gem in the rough.

I mean, I thumbs upped several songs on Load and Reload, and those albums are rightly considered pretty bad.

Glad you asked, I forgot to mention that. He did explain that if the bone is broken, the broken ends would vibrate against each other, and that would be as painful as it sounds.

Could you elaborate on this? I couldn't see anything in that article to back up that statement.

More like a case study on how the top levels of academia are susceptible to blatant corruption from industry.

I don't see how mandating clear pricing is supposed to address medical inefficiency. If it threatens your life, you're going to pay no matter what, or in other words, demand is inelastic. Insulin is often used as an example of an inelastic good in Economics 101. I'm not sure how people are supposed to comparison shop for hospitals in an emergency situation and even for elective procedures, lots of hospitals in an area are often owned by the same overarching company and it's not difficult to collude. For "the market" to work, we would need to let people die, which is not very popular among society at large.
Unions fight to protect their members. If taxpayers arent willing to fund enough compensation to attract quality candidates, it is gaurenteed to create a bad situation. Unions protecting bad teachers is a symptom not a cause.

as for "content of character", you have been presented with the mechanism of the oppression and still argue vehemently against remediation or protections.

Juust so you are aware, this all extends far beyond questions of race, not sure why you are so focused on that, but it's probably pretty telling.

Also, I'm not at all sure what you see as a distinction between these protections and "founding fathers already gave us ways to protect the minority's rights via the judicial system...".

We are discussing implementation of that Founding Father Judicial system stuff in this thread, please expand on why you think it serves as an argument against modfying or creating laws to protect abused classes?

That doesn’t work for emergency care - where the patient really doesn’t have the time to go window-shopping while having a cardiac arrest.

And while greater transparency is good - not everyone in the public is able - or willing - to understand a medical price-sheet and might opt for a cheaper but medically-inappropriate procedure with similar-sounding-name to the procedure they actually need.
Nor should people be awarded karma for being right for the wrong reasons.
That's just an argument for lowering taxes.
I took my 4 year old to the ER because he had a 103 fever. The doctor put an ear thermometer to him and told me to give him some childrens ibuprofen. The visit lasted all of 5 minutes. The cost: $756.00.

I refused to pay it. It was the first time I did not pay a debt and the first time I was sent to collections. I refused based on principle, and not because I couldn’t afford it. Collections called me for about 3 months, and every time someone called and said, “is this John Wheeler”, I would never confirm and then go about asking why they are calling for John Wheeler. Eventually, the calls stopped and the collection agency wrote it off to their unpaid reserves (I’m assuming), I never received a ding on my credit report.

Everyone is always asking why US healthcare is so expensive. People blame it on the insurance companies and the hospitals, but my theory is it’s the providers.

I worked at Vanderbilt on their payroll system, and I would regularly see general practitioners making $350,000 a year, and this was 15 years ago! It wasn’t uncommon to see teaching doctors getting paid a million dollars.
I could easily seeing that happen. Watching my kid grow up, it's actually pretty interesting to see how frequently stuff like this occurs.

- To those who were around when the icon was created, the floppy disk is associated with storing a version of a file. So the action that occurs when pressing the icon can be intuited via transference. To those who have no knowledge of a floppy disk (like younger people), it's purely idiomatic and that the icon represents saving the current state of a file is an idiomatic definition that needs to be committed to memory by rote.

- "Hanging up the phone" (and it's associated icon of a horizontally-placed or forward-tilted handset) is also decoupled from the current reality of disconnecting a phone call. When she finally made her confusion known, we had to explain to her that it meant to end the call (i.e. press the red button on the screen). Before that, she was really confused and thought we were trying to tell her to do something weird with the charging cable (what else would she "hang" it from?).

- # is an incredibly common symbol nowadays. It's referred to as a hashtag. Not a pound symbol, number symbol, or even a hash symbol. But "hashtag selfie" is said in speech to represent the hashtag "#selfie". "Press pound" or "Press the pound key" is not an intuitive instruction to a huge swath of younger people or non-native speakers that picked up a lot of their vocabulary from modern movies/tv/Youtube.

- Alarm clock, stopwatch, and timer icons also tend to be the subject of rote memorization rather than transference learning, at least earlier in life. Representative objects are around (either sold as a retro analog device, TV/movies, grandparents, etc), but not nearly ubiquitous enough to have exposure to the device before the icon.

The list goes on. It's far more common than you'd think for iconographic elements and instructions to be entirely intuitive to those that understand the origins of the icons, while being purely idiomatic and non-intuitive to others.

For someone who has only ever been exposed to a floppy disk in the form of a save icon, assuming it's a 3D printed icon or novelty toy/paperweight/thing is a pretty logical conclusion. Even more so as older movies get phased out of common circulation, so they don't even get indirect exposure that way.
I don't understand why you have to approximate straight scanlines by using a fraction of a really large disk. What's the disadvantage in using a smaller disk and letting the scanlines be curved?
Just google "roleplaying forum". There are more popular ones as well.
great anecdote

and when you're having heart arrhythmia, since it is too expensive to send you to a specialist and hook you up to one of those EKG devices, why not just do a series of 20 pushups and 20 squats and see if you'll collapse?

alternatively, we could have a system where patients are entitled to some basic care, but hey..

I mean, think about it: many people who were born in the 80s and 90s know about phonographs despite them being long obsolete by that point, thanks to the references in cartoons, movies and other forms of media they consumed as children.
Wow, again, last time I looked at keybase I just remember it being identity verification. Glad to see they're expanding on that.

I am - unfortunately - picky :D as you mention, they haven't released their server code and don't seem particularly interested in doing so (which is their full right). Good thread for that here: https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/6374

I get that some people aren't too fussed if the cryptography is done right, and you could reverse engineer the protocol and interop a la Amazon S3, but...yeah. Just not me I guess.

I'm new to the limitations you mentioned (# of devices, phone no. Auth, etc.). I'll need to take a good look before I jump ship. But first thought is I think I'll take those downsides as part of the current status quo of messaging apps for a fully open platform I can support and possibly get my parents to use without too much trouble (yep, my principles have priorities, lower ones get sacrificed when absolutely necessary ;))

Public Domain projects that subtly argue for an extensive view of copyright in ambiguous (in the best case) situations make me somewhat suspicious.

Editing is a lot work, and their efforts are appreciated. But most of that involves the application of existing rules (curly quotes etc.) and therefore doesn't meet the creativity standard of copyright.

I guess the texts are out there anyway, and it doesn't make much of a difference. But I'm reminded of the art world, where many a painting is long out of copyright, yet only the Museums have access and the insist setting up a lightbox and taking a photo is a creative endeavour worthy of protection from the prying eyes of the non-paying public.
That's what I'm saying, the ad exchanges say they know how to detect the cheats, but they don't actually do a good job of it. And it's not really in their interest to do so. They get paid equally for ad-fraud as they do for legitimate impressions. The person actually advertise the product or service gets shafted. But as long as there is a long tail of people like me when I first got started who don't understand the issue of ad fraud (and the complicit people who sing the praises of advertising to boost the idea that it's a good path), the ad exchange will keep raking in money, just like the people committing the fraud.

It's easy to look at this as "Farmers vs. Google AdWords" or whatever other ad exchange we might consider. But Google is just a middle-man. And as long as the system works for some definition of "works", they can capitalize on asymmetric information about the ad industry to bleed money out of small actors.

With online advertising, it's exceptionally easy to end up in a situation where everyone gets paid except you.

Depends on where in the west. In California there are lots of black bears but no grizzly bears.

BTW in case it isn't clear to readers:

brown bear === grizzly bears and are massive

black bears are relatively much smaller

Black bears can be either black or dark brown in color and that doesn't make them a brown bear.
Maybe! I've worked with some SiC FETs, but the issue I ran into with FETs in amplifiers is that they're typically made with switching in mind. If you run most FETs in linear mode, you get some pretty interesting failure modes[1].

But, Wolfspeed's SiCFETs /do/ have a published SOA (see fig 22[2]), so maybe I should revisit this...

It is not hard at all if they are willing to pay big bucks. They want to game the visa system, suppress the wage, and get cheap labor. Just take a look at all the profits Apple, Google, Microsoft make every year. And yet, they still collude together in order to suppress wage, given the high housing prices in the bay area [1].

This is why you need to have Senior and Principal engineering roles. As a programmer or operations engineer you should be able to choose between a management or engineering track for advancement.

The managers work as an interface between the management hierarchy and the individual contributors.

The top engineers work across teams to steer technical solutions and provide cross team focus and continuity. Your principal engineers are charged with breaking down the silos and sharing and setting technical standards and encouraging the reuse of existing services and systems.

Tech managers and team leads don't have time to do the technical leadership and work properly with business. Workplaces without this structure invariably fail to have well articulated, cross team technical decision making capabilities. Everything winds up fragmented and reimplemented.
> it doesn't seem likely that wellbeing causes trees

Why not? Maybe people who feel well are more likely to care about their environment, and e.g. organize protests when someone wants to remove trees from their neighborhood. Meanwhile, depressed people will watch their environment deteriorate, and do nothing about it.

(I am not saying this is how it is, just proposing a possible causal mechanism.)

A possible common-cause explanation could be that some places are designed "for people to feel happy", and those contain trees, but also other things (parks? accessible sidewalk? or perhaps those are simply places where many nice people live?) which make people happy.
The "insured price" contributes to your annual out-of-pocket maximum. Care providers want insured patients to hit their cap as soon as possible so that the patients' marginal cost of care drops to zero. Once this happens, they can get patients to keep getting expensive treatments "for free" while the care providers can continue to bill insurance companies whatever they can get away with.

Fix sexism in air-conditioning, save the planet (2015)
As mentioned below, the price doesn't matter when nobody is available to see you.

Also, the opportunity cost of sitting around with a broken hip waiting to be seen can be higher than going to a privatized country/province and paying for the surgery, in which case you're a super-sucker who paid extra taxes for decades just to end up paying out of pocket for surgery anyways.

Anyways, the US system is probably worse overall but it can work quite well (better than socialized medicine) for upper-middle-class people and above which is why it's still around.

This analogy doesn't work so well for AC, which involves both pushing and pulling on electric charges.

It's more like pipes full of a gas like air. The power plant has a big reciprocating piston that is pushing and pulling on the gas, creating a pressure wave. One side of the cylinder is "aired," meaning it is in contact with atmospheric air. These pipes make their way to clients, who attach the pipes to equipment of their own, for example a piston that converts this wave back into mechanical energy. Again, one side of this piston is in contact with atmospheric air, which is the reference pressure for the piston.

Sometimes the pipe develops small holes, and if a hapless worker gets too close, they can either get cut from an out-blast or hurt from smashing against the equipment when the air is sucking in (both being from the difference in the pipe's pressure relative to atmospheric pressure). As a safety protection, everything is enclosed in another layer of air-proof material, and when a leak is detected the main air supply is shut off.

Special attention is made to make sure the average pressure in the pipe is the same as atmospheric pressure, since the piston motors depend on this to function.

(In real life, steam plants use direct current since there are a lot of losses due to condensation, and also since a lot of the point is transmitting thermal energy.)

At 35, I finally had real, full control over multiple languages, could pick up CLR and understand and implement any algorithm in it, finally understood exactly why concurrency was so damn hard and how to mitigate that, and would pass practically every interview with flying colors. I could finally drive my tools with some facility and started to realize gdb was my friend.

You may be an expert in multiple languages but as the article said, if the company is looking for Ruby developers to write a CRUD app, they no more care that I spent years doing C than they do the years I spent doing 65C02 assembly in the 80s.

No matter how many subdomains you are an expert in, if the company doesn’t need that experience, it doesn’t matter.

I don't quite see the connection. It seems unlikely that my doctor and his assistant would treat heart arrhythmia the same as a sore finger.

And no one said I couldn't have an X-ray. They merely offered me a faster and less expensive diagnostic procedure at my own option.
Unfortunately none of the formats given work with Amazon's "email to kindle" system, which is the most convenient way to load books-- it allows you to download a PDF on your phone and send it to a special email address associated with your Kindle device. Considering all the work this site has already done preparing the book files, it seems like they might as well ought to generate PDF files using a page size roughly equal to that of the most common Kindle readers.

It's very cool to see this idea. Most notably because I had it myself! I thought about it between 2014 and 2015. For me your post is a case study as to why I didn't go through with it and you did.

What I'm noticing is the following

My issues:

1. Not being able to find a good business model for the markets I identified

2. Not being able to identify all markets

3. Not testing it out or simply starting it

4. Uncertain whether I'd be able to amass a pool

My successes:

1. Identifying the same pain point for researchers

2. The ability to create the web app (not that I did this, but I was confident back then that I could and in retrospect, I think I was right)

It's funny as I'm currently prepping for becoming a strategy consultant (first round at MBB firm, never got a reply by FAANG in Amsterdam) and I'm already much better at the conceptual thinking regarding my issues -- though strategy consultants simply scratch the surface when it comes to identifying markets, so I have a lot to learn there. And since this is just all interview prep, I've got a long way to learn business skills anyway.

An unusual tip if you are 'suffering' the same fate as me. Look on YouTube on how to do new market entry consulting cases and you'll get an idea on how to think about it from a high level.

I still wonder what good resources are to learn marketing though.

Of course you can discuss his motive. But it is a logical fallacy to use his motive to disprove his statement. The person I responded to said that since he showed motive, his ad hom attack wasn’t fallacious.

If someone without his proposed motives had made the same statement, the statement wouldn’t be more or less true.
