I went in a few months ago to check that if I had a broken arm from a bad fall from a bicycle (I couldn't tell through the pain). I took an uber to the ER because I was scared of using an ambulance even though I was in screaming agony.

After a 4 hour wait they used a machine (that took 5 minutes) to do what amounted to a fancy X-Ray. Total cost to me was $1500.

Getting spit on is too good for them. I'll laugh when we nationalize the healthcare industry in the US and doctors start having to figure out how to live on a reasonable salary. Craven money leeches every last one of them.
There's hope for the future yet!
Show HN: I Made a Terraform Crash Course
Hi.

I made a video crash course about Terraform 0.12. It's one of four I want to do. I would love to show you what I've made so far and get your feedback and thoughts.

The course is financially free but does require an email to signup (a limitation of the platform I'm using): https://www.thecloud.coach/terraform-crash-course

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks.
Software is not a physical good in the same way a CPU or a car is. Also, as you seem to acknowledge, when you purchase software, you are technically acquiring a license. Remove for a moment that this is controversial for some (see FSF). I think it would be a tougher sell to say when you buy a car or a piece of silicon that you don't own it. (There is firmware and microcode, sure.)
If you don't want the company to access any of your notes, just don't enable the cloud features, don't even create a cloud account. Then you can sync between your other devices and the RM with some scripts making use of SSH for instance - it's not a very convenient solution but definitely works.
This seems like a strange thing to argue about.

Let's say it wasn't a country, does that change anything? Didn't he betray something, someone?

The question is still the same.
Was about to make that very comment. I think it probably has more to do with the drop in civility in western societies than anything US centric.
You shouldn't be surprised that people prefer to see doctors (and lawyers and plumbers etc) from their home country and speak their native language. Similarly, if you were living in a foreign country with a different national language, you'd likely prefer the same.
>just shares potential competitive advantages like this?

It is abit like Facebook Sharing their work on Servers Hardware and Database improvements. Ultimately they dont think any of those technology are their completive advantage , their core business is Social ( and Ad Tracking, but that is another topic ).

Similar to Netflix, and would be the same as Disney. Their core business is not in the delivery, but the content.

Having said that it is still very nice of them to share their work. FreeBSD, Ruby Rails, Chaos Engineering, there are lots of things I love about their Tech Stacks.

If you're looking at tiny boards, then I'd check out the ESP32 based boards right now. Cheaper. Personally, I think the R-pi Zero is quite attractive due to its lower barrier of entry.

Also, consider creating your synth/audio processor on your local machine first. Tweak all parameters. Make it perfect. Then port to hardware + UI. Not the other way around. The times of fixed points maths/DSP optimisations driving your algorithms are behind us.
With cars, there's a distinction between a "restoration" and a "survivor". A survivor hasn't had things done to it other than maintenance.

There's debate about where the line is between a "restoration" and a "replica".

No bible but mere history and tradition. That's where the original 'intent' came from.

>why should anybody care?

You shouldn't. This is just a comment on a certain kind of people that likely won't have any effect on them and that they are free to ignore.

Cool theory though. Do you have some links to dig into it? Also could it have applied to other naturally-occuring psychedelics (salvia divinorum, mescaline cacti, etc.)?
> It's amazing they are so profitable with 70's era technology running the business.

Without knowing any details, I would say that there are people who would argue that this attitude may be one of the reasons they are profitable. Why change a perfectly working system your customer does have no direct interaction with?
There is no such thing as a "detox". Flagged for spreading unscientific BS.
It’s my understanding that many organizations prefer *BSDs over Linux not because BSD is more performant ... but because you’re way more likely to get your organizations patch accepted into the upstream than Linux.
That's what I bought the first time, but unfortunately there don't seem to be good audio libraries for the Feather line, and the Teensy Audio library looks quite sophisticated. Or did I miss something?
They explain in the paper that the quantity plotted in Fig. 4 can also be interpreted as a probability of zero errors of running the circuit. You can see that it goes down quickly with number of qubits and number of cycles, showing the need for either error correction or much improvement in future devices in order to get any useful calculations done. The win here is that the probability of success is non-zero, as they say in the paper: "A
single bit or phase flip over the course of the algorithm
will completely shuffle the speckle pattern and result in
close to 0 fidelity". So the only way to get the right result is to have runs with zero errors.

“Quantum supremacy” should be taken as a mathematical term with a mathematical definition in the same way we have definitions for what it means for a problem to be “hard” in the complexity theoretic sense.
I know how absurd this may sound but I think it’s still rationally true.

We could remove all the bloat. There is a lot of bloat in modern systems that just causes unnecessary heat and energy consumption. I’m sure it adds up once we consider all the edge devices needing bigger lithium batteries and data centers needing air conditioning.

I do exactly the same kind of computing today that I did in the early 90s. The devices got way faster and way more energy efficient but my experience is fundamentally the same. Boggles the mind.
I’m trying to help teach the AI, but some options don’t have to do with privacy at all.

For instance, I got (option A):

The Games Press Web site can, optionally, store a Cookie on your computer in order to automatically log you into the site on each visit.

and option B:

Back to Top ^ NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES There shall be no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

It would be great to have a skip/flag option for cases like these.

Edit to add:

Some other notes:

- Mozilla, a tech company I consider ethical, is right down there with Netflix, LinkedIn and Waze
- The box under “Sentence Breakdown by Risk Level” is empty when my ad blocker is enabled (Adguard on iOS Safari)
- Telegram, a company I also consider ethical, has a score of 105%—is this an oversight?
People are also trying to figure out whether general anesthesia results in these same Tau tangles (with results still mixed: it could be that it is mostly due to hypothermia that sometimes happens during anesthesia, not the anesthetic itself) in an attempt to explain why surgery sometimes results in "post-operative dementia" in elderly people.

Sorry but i disagree, this is widely known. A neutral article says half of dealer profit comes from maintenance. It doesn't matter that a lot of maintenance comes from outside shops. At the dealer, lots of profit comes from maintenance and that's drastically reduced with evs.

It's from the service and parts department, which accounts for the other 49.6% of the dealership's gross profits, according to NADA."

MariaDB isn't.
RSS is more about spreading a workload over multiple cores to not overwhelm any single core, particularly in high PPS situations.

This is about PCI-E devices being hooked up to a NUMA node to avoid saturating the link between nodes. There's a limited amount of bandwidth, and crossing nodes saturates this and increases latency, both of which will have limiting effects on your total possible throughput.

RSS configuration doesn't need you to set up your hardware in any specific way, with this you need to ensure that the set of disks and nic are hooked up to coupled domains - e.g. if you place the two NICs on the same NUMA node, then no software configuration is going to fix that, and you'd have to go and physically rearrange things to fix it.

You might still use RSS to distributed the workload across multiple cores within that NUMA domain when using this setup.
In most jurisdictions, you need to sign policy protections (and pay a fee, except parties get the full set for free) to get voter data in bulk. That data can't be redistributed except under tracked conditions. The app made it available to everybody.

If you “produce random numbers”, against what distribution should they be generated? Usually RNGs produce uniformly distributed random numbers. The challenge of quantum supremacy is to produce them against another kind of distribution, called the Porter -Thomas distribution. If you run your quantum computer and you get uniformly random output (akin to what toy might do if you build an ASIC), you have a broken quantum computer.

Cool! I'm wondering if there's any possible way to automatically generate GUI's for command line applications. Including all the supported arguments.

Some type of crawler would interact with a program, parse its --help output, man page, or any other info available, to enumerate all possible options and their formatting.

It sounds like a really messy program considering how inconsistent CLI's are.

Anyways, a GUI could help massively with discoverability.

Such a tool could help bridge the gap a little between GUI and CLI.
For me, I started thinking in loops and got completely derailed. I became a bit manic, a bit depressed and a bit psychotic. There was also 2 hours of pure evil and 2 hours of equanimous love (which is awesome). I learned from these experiences that I am not my thoughts as I couldn’t identify with all of them, yet I kept thinking them. I also learned a lot about myself in general at the time. Ultimately, the whole experience was really educational. But at the same time, it was as crazy as a psychedelic trip yet much deeper.

But I don’t feel I experienced that I consumed my thoughts. If anything, I saw how I thought. I saw how I’m smart and how I’m crazy. And how being social keeps me sane since it breaks the loop.
Doesn't it? Neglect when you otherwise would take care is evidence of bias.
Not from US, have noticed this too. It’s to the point that I don’t even hit up most of my old US friends anymore, because to do so would feel like encroaching.

Looking at Wikipedia though: Karma, 5-precepts, sounds the opposite of what you're saying.

Also, fwiw, the Mosaic "ten commandments" are supposedly "thou shalt not" rather than "you must not": ie "if you walk closely with God you won't find yourself doing these things". The Hebrew is hayah in Exodus 20, so like "it will come to pass that you won't murder".

The idea in Christian terms, further expanded in the New Testament, becomes that your mind should be "renewed" leading to not, eg, being greedy.
The US and the UK (probably less so now than in the past) have a more extreme focus on the nuclear family than other countries.

As mentioned earlier, Plan9 is what UNIX research edition 8 grew into (as I understand it), it's possibly one of the best examples of the UNIX philosophy.

It's important to note that UNIX the actual implementation is a moving target because of the many versions, just because the designers didn't see something could be achieved in UNIX (resources, time, effort, etc.) or just plain didn't think about it, doesn't mean that it doesn't embody the UNIX philosophy :)

Really feels odd to invest in a computing device without a good developer experience - at least for the onyx i could just write an android app to scratch an itch.. :-/
I'd agree, but there's little reason to speculate.

Python doesn't _really_ have typing though. It's more a method of documentation really (right now, anyway)

edit: to clarify, I wouldn't say the type hints put Python in the realm of a statically typed lang (how could it ..) but it's a step in the right direction.
yeah, 64-bit types might cause problems (I found Rust's atomic module reference educative https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/sync/atomic/ (the source code doesn't do anything too special either)), but the post said "modern processors", so I guess it's rather accurate

The compiler is smarter than you think. Suppose one thread alternates between writing 32 and 33 to a 4-byte variable, while another thread alternates between writing 1024 and 1025 to the same 4-byte variable. You might think that the only possible values are 32, 33, 1024, 1025; but then you read the variable and find a 1056 or 1057 there. Why? Because the compiler noticed that the first thread, after its initial write of 32 or 33, only modifies the least significant byte of the value; so it generated a single-byte write to overwrite only the modified part of the value.
Thats not remotely close to being the only scenario or influencing factors of the business cycle
