I'm not an expert on what costs would do under a public healthcare system, but I think "self-evident that costs will go up" is very much wrong. You add new beneficiaries, but you also change major cost centers.

For example, the healthcare industry spends a lot of time and money on medical billing, on the side of providers sending bills and insurers paying them. Clearly some of this would be reflected in new and different bureaucracy, but probably less of it (and certainly not self-evidently more).

Also, preventative care can be much better than reactive care. Sure, a public health care provider would have to spend more money on insulin for diabetics when all of them are covered, but maybe it will spend less on emergency room visits for patients who suffer serious complications of poorly managed diabetes and can't pay the ER bill.

>Rwanda is known to be up-and-coming and is doing better at solving their problems than South Africa

I mean, South Africa certainly has its problems, that's for sure. But I mean, Rwanda? With its disappeared opposition, assassinated dissidents, and child soldiers securing Tantalum deposits in Congo?

I don't know man? South Africa certainly has its problems, but even under Apartheid, you didn't see them sending child soldiers into neighboring countries. (Not that sending adult soldiers to secure diamond mines is that much better than sending child soldiers to secure tantalum deposits I suppose? But it just seems not as bad to me.)

its so disingenuous to equate telemetry with tracking. The former is looking for app crashes, usability patterns and the latter is watching "what interests you" soas to serve you more of that. There is no reason to believe Microsoft is using Windows telemetry crash/threat data to shape Bing ad targeting. (Yes I understand browsing history is part of the overall telemetry. Microsoft would be smart to brand that separately than diagnostic data.)

The other main use of telemetry is to power active threat protection. Having it turned on on more machines makes everyone safer.

I remember reading about this also, but never really received a good explanation. Implementation-wise SCP is a lot cleaner to use especially in code. It doesn't support some things like resuming a file, but it could, and in any case it's less of a pain than SFTP.

There was a recent CVE about writing to wherever the server specified but that does not necessarily reflect poorly on the protocol.

It's the unfortunate fact that any privacy protecting program will also protect people generally deemed morally reprehensible. There's no way to make software tell the distinction between the two groups so it's something both programmers and privacy advocates are going to have to deal with because there will always be people both in and out of government who will use those cases to push for their abolition.

I know this wasn't really the point of the article but I wish I had more pixels in my phone camera all the time. It's not that it doesn't take great pictures. It does. It's that I often want to crop to a tiny portion of the image. I don't have a telephoto lens on my phone.

For example here's a portion of the image in the article I might want to crop. http://greggman.github.io/doodles/cropping-needs-pixels.html

I could stylize it or something to try to get around the fact that it's lo-res but if my smartphone camera was 10 gigpixels or something then I could maybe actually take the picture I want without needing a telephoto lens.

I believe confidence has everything to do with your willingness to try things that you might fail. You have to be confident that failure will not ruin you, and confident that you'll learn from your failures, and confident that the learning will lead to eventual success.

Self-esteem means believing (and having confidence) in your own abilities. That doesn't mean you people should say "you are great" for trying, but people can say "trying is useful" on the path to accomplishing what you set out to do.

It's a narrative that he can eat pizza. I don't think he really cured anything.

Amusingly, none of my research in gene therapy is relevant today. It was predicated on an already obsolete concept- designing transcription factors that can bind to a unique site in the genome to guide integration. CRISPR (which is what the article is about) made my approaches technically less viable, because they require extensive simulation, modelling, and experiment, while with a good CRISPR system, you just need an appropriate guide RNA.

Of course the really hard problem isn't the integration technique, it's knowing what to integrate.

“From now on, use this ground fill pattern” is a type of run length encoding scheme, but implemented as a tile-drawing command in the game engine, not as an image file format.

I’d speculate that the use of this run-length tiling command predates the RLE image format, since the Mario Bros arcade game that predates SMB1 (with some of the same programmers) and the RLE format patent both happened at the same time (1983) and run-length encoding schemes were already common before that.
What Are the Actual Chances of Being Buried Alive?
North American != American.

For that matter, many in Central and South America take exception to the term "American" being applied to USA citizens. So the term "American" can in some contexts be ambiguous. However "North American" is unambiguously referring to residents of any country in North America. It's wholly reasonable for somebody living in Canada to speak of living in North America. Arguably Canadians and Alaskans have more of a right to the term than anybody else!
I’ll take a stab at it, since I’ve done some migrations to Bazel (and also away from Bazel). The comparison to Make and makefiles is good because Make, unlike some other build systems, is mostly declarative. Most of your makefile is going to declare what the inputs and outputs are.

If you use Make long enough, there are some obvious improvements you want. Multiple outputs, rebuild when options change, and easier cross-compiling are the top ones. Various build systems attempt to add these features. In my mind, Ninja is the only build system that added these features well, and it worked because Ninja removed all the other features to focus on just the build process (as opposed to specification / configuration).

If you think about these problems with Make, you realize that it kind of boils down to one big thing: you want your build system to always rebuild when necessary, and you want it to almost never rebuild when unnecessary. (Plus the bit about cross-compiling.)

Other build systems rely on the developer writing the build scripts to just “get it right”. Bazel is different because it sandboxes the rules to enforce hermeticity. In Make, I can include "pear.h" which includes "orange.h", but let’s suppose that "orange.h" is actually a generated source file… now, try writing this out in a Makefile (if you’re a masochist, say you’re cross-compiling). Yes, "orange.h" should be declared as an input to anything that includes "pear.h", but in practice, developers are going to screw it up. At that point you can end up with a build that uses two different versions of "orange.h".

Bazel sandboxes the commands so that any rule not declared to depend on "orange.h" will not be able to open "orange.h" at all. The process won’t see the file at all.

This opens the door for all sorts of optimizations and query features that are simply unreliable if you have to trust that human developers are writing the rules correctly. These optimizations, for large projects, result in radical build time improvements. For most build systems, a shared build cache would come with a risk of bad cache entries, but with Bazel, the risk is substantially lower. It’s also easier to get reproducible builds, which make it substantially easier to do certain types of auditing.

>I wish we stopped giving Japan a pass for the things it does wrong.

I also wish people stop considering their country's morals and current fashions as the yardstick to measure the whole world...

(Especially if they don't have such a great, past or present, track record even by their own standards, to begin with).

Who are you to give or give not Japan "a free pass"? Who said Japan needs a pass from outsiders?

To quote Feyman:

"The next morning the young woman taking care of our room fixes the bath, which was right in our room. Sometime later she returns with a tray to deliver breakfast. I'm partly dressed. She turns to me and says, politely, "Ohayo, gozai masu," which means, "Good morning."

Pais is just coming out of the bath, sopping wet and completely nude. She turns to him and with equal composure says, "Ohayo, gozai masu ," and puts the tray down for us.

Pais looks at me and says, "God, are we uncivilized!"

We realized that in America if the maid was delivering breakfast and the guy's standing there, stark naked, there would be little screams and a big fuss. But in Japan they were completely used to it, and we felt that they were much more advanced and civilized about those things than we were."
It seems to me that the vast amount of water on Earth acts as an insulator against extreme temperature changes. I imagine that most of the issues surrounding climate change are going to be centered around us having to adapt to the new normal - costal cities flooded, mass migration across political boundaries, shifts in arability of land areas affecting food production, etc.

Yet a statements is what started all this in the video game world. Blitzchung was banned from making a statement. Tim Sweeney did a statement right now, in support to what Blitzchung did. This statement will have repercussion. You may not believe that the content of the statement is truthful, but it doesn't change that Tim Sweeney accepted the repercussion caused by that statement, which is already quite important.
It's an interesting conundrum. Many values held by the US founding fathers were flawed (IMO due to the period's sentiment). But how would they feel about a globalized economy that is manipulated by a tyrannical force to infringe on liberties in the US?
One of the mindsets of the bully is assuming that the victim has something that the bully doesn't. This leads to envy, feeling of self-doubt .... which leads the bully to find the weakness of the victim and punish them for it. After punishing the bully feels "good". The goal behind their bullying behaviour is to eliminate the competition.

Apart from this imitation of other bullies and impressing their peers are major factors.

Ex) A jock might envy the smartness of a nerd. A conservative might envy the freedom of a liberal.

If you feel bad about something that does not mean others have a moral obligation to prevent your feeling bad from happening. If there is one thing we are sure about is that we "are" and if someone wants to stop "being" but someone else doesn't think he should because he will be sad then that selfish fuck should respect someone else's decision about himself and do what he can regarding fixing his own feelings. The only time this doesn't apply is with parents leaving kids because they forced their "being" onto them and there's no escaping.

This is not an argument in good faith. Alabama has no precedence of self governance, and that precedence is not being actively threatened by the US government.

And I think I understand that’s because they’ve elected an Iranian favoring government which they believe is causing limited economic opportunities- or perhaps anger at the government due to its violent response to generic economic protests.

They create far more negative externalities?

They literally can and do pay for laws written in their favor, to entrench their interests, limit their competition, and adjudicate their behavior? See, even they agree they should "pay more."

And because obviously they have more to lose if government services decline. They are the primary driver of demand for government services. Many of them need a functioning military, aviation, infrastructure, law enforcement, patent office, and other services to continue to make their billions.

If all the highways, gas pipelines, airports, Internet backbone and the Pacific Fleet in America crumbled to dust tomorrow, I'd be greatly unhappy but WalMart, Amazon, and Facebook would be ... well let's just say disproportionately affected.
Tom Mahood - a UFO skeptic with an advanced degree in physics - gives a plausible argument that the Air Force has been testing particle beams designed to spoof radar for quite a long time at Groom Lake.

"The way it works is like this. When directed toward the sky, a properly tuned proton beam, focused by magnetic lenses, would pass through the first few thousand meters of air with no apparent effect. If the energy levels are adjusted right, the beam itself wouldn’t be visible. Then, when the energy of the beam dropped to a critical value, it would dump its remaining energy in a very short distance, ionizing the oxygen and nitrogen atoms of the atmosphere, causing one damn fine glowing ball of plasma."

"Assuming a circular beam aperture, the plasma would also take on a circular shape. Viewed from the side, the plasma would have a lenticular cross-section, and possibly even a different color from the bottom to the top due to the energy gradient of the dying beam. Very much like a spectral distribution). In short, it would look just like a glowing saucer. The beam could quickly be moved laterally, giving the plasma the appearance of instantly moving across the sky, much as a searchlight can jump 'instantly' across the bottom of a cloud."
They didn't. They can't have done, because there were at least two conflicting Leave campaigns! The two binary choices of in/out of freedom of movement and the customs union gave rise to four possible options, and I saw all of those being advocated by different pundits.
