> Their life expectancy has gone up which obviously means the amount of care to be provided goes up. Costs haven't followed suit

While their healthcare costs are much lower than eg the US, Japan is currently in the middle of a healthcare cost crisis in fact:

"annual health-care expenditure grew at a pace 40 times faster than the economy from 2000 to 2016." [2]

Their healthcare expenditures have more than doubled in the last ~27 years, while their economy hasn't expanded and their population hasn't expanded. While I don't consider a 100% increase over 27 years to be extremely alarming, especially in the healthcare field, it's a substantial increase given the context that Japan is dealing with (budget buried in debt costs, declining standard of living due to debasing of the Yen due to debt, aging population, zero population growth, net negative economic expansion over 25-30 years).

While the US has the ability to cut a lot of unnecessary fat in healthcare to bring down costs, I don't see how Japan is going to be able to do that without harming care (as their system is already well run). The US also has had dramatic economic growth during the time in which Japan has had none, including adding an economy the size of Japan to itself in just the last six years.

Prices for care in Japan are basically systematically set by government committees.

In contrast, in the US, there are 16 non-medical, mostly billing personnel per doctor.
I'm not aware of a single advanced-economy state (I usually shorthand this "OECD" but Singapore's not a member, AFAIK) that doesn't use price controls, explicitly or de facto (monopsony), in their health care system.

Price controls, non-profit status requirement for insurers, and a non-ruinously-expensive "public option" seem to be common factors in the most "free market" (relatively speaking) systems of our peer states. Despite Obamacare we've achieved zero of those, nor have we opted to go further "left" to mimic any other proven-to-control-costs-and-deliver-care system.
It keeps the microphone actively listening even if no apps are using it / have requested access.

This isn't something that any other app needing microphone does.

Case in point: if you use Chrome, and start a Google Hangouts calls, the website will request mic access. Only then will it activate the mic, and it will deactivate after the call.

Puppet is declarative, Ansible is procedural.

You may find Puppet obtuse if all you want is one time provisioning of new hosts. Sometimes you do care about procedural concerns like execution order, and in Puppet you have some influence (e.g. dependency relationships) but not direct control.

You may find Ansible backs you into corners with long lived mutable infrastructure. Configurations may drift, and your ability to run a playbook may depend on the sequence of playbooks previously run on the target. Ansible doesn’t really have a notion of converging on a goal state; it’s closer to scripting. You can have a single idempotent playbook that you run every time, but it’s not opinionated about that.

I added that after I read about it from mozilla. Is there cross-vendor support for that same canary? It would be nice if implementers standardize on that.
That’s true for ATX cases, but remember that this is the build machine for Excel 97 East Asian Languages. It’s probably an AT case.
Although it's number-only said numbers can be used to represent anything, really. If you can convert your data to number-friendly formats and back there's really no issue.

If you need strings you can use the native TextEncoder/TextDecoder and shuffle things around as UTF-8. If you need JSON-like objects you can look at encoding formats such as Protocol Buffers, Thrift, and the like. This introduces non-zero latency shuffling data between formats but that's largely what normally occurs over IO boundaries anyways.
I think is because they were captured, supposedly without much fight and failed to destroy sensitive information on the ship. NKs and soviets reverse engineered the communication system and were able to listen on to us communications for a while till the said systems were upgraded..
That being said, I think it's wrong to to not classify the crew as POW. They were tortured and starved...

All of the cloud drives solve this issue.

If you just want something simple for personal use, I'd look into the iOS Shortcuts app. Shortcuts can send files that were shared to it via HTTP or SSH (as STDIN to a shell command), and it can store files on your phone. You could use QR codes to exchange URIs, IP addresses or file paths.

For example, to send from Linux to iOS:

- Linux machine serves file over HTTP, displays a QR code with the URL
- You scan QR code and download the file

For iOS -> Linux:

- Linux machine displays QR code with its IP address
- On your phone, you share the file with a shortcut
- The shortcut scans the QR code, then connects to the machine via SSH.
It runs an application on your Linux machine (e.g. cat > /tmp/file-from-ios)
and passes the file in as input.
Where does that figure come from?
I think there’s an uptick at the moment of paid online services. We’re getting four models:

1. Free commercial services supported by advertising.

2. Ad-free commercial services supported by subscriptions.

3. Open-source distributed services.

Arguably there’s a fourth category: free, ad-free commercial services supported by VC money to grow until reaches critical mass and pivots into a paid/advertising model.

The second option caters to a smaller crowd who are willing to pay for a better experience, but a “smaller crowd” defies conventional wisdom about social network effects. It’s an interesting experiment though. There are now dozens of news aggregators, streaming media services, gaming platforms, etc., competing for our monthly disposable income, so it may be a tough sell.

The NYT covered the shift towards subscription services recently:

And that makes it a dogwhistle how?

The (((echo))) is a dogwhistle. "Globalists" is a dogwhistle. The USS Liberty incident is just another point on the miles-long list of war crimes committed by the Israeli military and pardoned by the American UNSC veto.

The accusation of antisemitism whenever misbehavior from the Israeli government comes up is itself antisemitic because it presupposes that "the Republic of Israel" and "the Jews" are the same thing.

Yep, been using Etymotic ones for both concerts and riding motorcycle, and I love it. It works just right, and for $15 feels like worth every penny (ER20XS; went with that one over the regular ER20 because of a lower profile shape). They are nearly indestructable and super easy to clean too (relevant if your ears tend to produce a solid amount of earwax). Had to replace them once over the years and only because i lost my original pair.

Really comfy, non-descript, very easy to put in and remove, and only blocks out the annoying stuff while making the necessary stuff more prominent (with music, it would be amplifying guitars/synths as well as speech, while cutting down a bit on drums; with motorcycle, it would be amplifying breaking sounds, sirens/horns, and, again, speech, while cutting down on wind and engine noise). I can wear them for hours, eventually forgetting that I even have anything in, despite usually being really sensitive to earbuds and not being able to wear them for prolonged periods of time.
Cool business model and something that makes sense for more online retailers to adopt. My question is how do you differentiate yourselves from Mirakl (https://www.mirakl.com) and F13 Works (https://www.f13works.com)
Some do. Mine doesn't. I work in an Indianapolis suburb, all devs have their own offices with real doors, and we work at home about 50% of the time (in our large quiet houses).

You can easily make 150k in this environment, where a 250k home is 3k sqft in a good neighborhood. I'm making quite a bit more in the management/director track.
> That comes across the same way as if I said "all romance movies end up with a couple, who don't get along, and there's some obstacle in their romance, and then they discover love, and end with smooching- end credits with some sappy music."

I find this to be a very good comparison. Most superhero movies and most romance movies follow a pretty strict template from which they don't deviate, so that you can usually very easily predict plot points and in fact can get frustrated if they deviate from the template, even if briefly. These genres of movies are (by the most part) made in a way you can get up, go outside to use the restroom or to buy more popcorn, come back and instantly understand the point of the movie you're at and resume your enjoyment.

This makes for very formulaic, predictable and (to me) boring cinema. Other people enjoy it and in fact get upset in the rare cases where this template gets subverted. (And thankfully, very occasionally it does get subverted)
Viewed through a certain lens it does; viewed more cynically it's a decadent utopia that engages in CIA-eqsue interference programs purely to stop a small percentage of dissatisfied citizens going haywire within the boundaries of the Culture. All controlled and directed by quasi-omniscient, paternalistic machines.

I think it's a very interesting exercise in exploring the space of post-scarcity, and Banks does a good job of looking at those consequences. It's telling though how little of narrative interest happens within Culture borders.

EDIT: But you're not wrong that it's at the upper end of the optimism scale!

Not all fintechs though. I currently work at one that has an actual banking license, does its own risk models, customer support, and so on - it's essentially a bank, just invests a lot on technology. "Fintech" is a big umbrella term, I believe it won't last much longer - the same way everybody used "DotCom" in the past.

Why is that even a word that would show up in the word cloud? I can't imagine it was entered a bunch of times. I can't intuit any correlation between the colors, sizes, or words themselves that show up in the clouds.

I meant more on the shipping side. It must be more expensive to ship 19 different shipments?
I don't know. Maybe I'm a miserable cynic by now, but too many big names have been burning my good-will. I've been disappointed by too many names by now. Blizzard, Ubisoft, Bethesda, EA. Valve hasn't done so by not publishing games. Why should I trust e.g. EA with a long-dead franchise like Lost Vikings because it's VR now? Lost vikings were pretty dope puzzles games.

At this point I prefer throwing $60 at 4-6 indie games and usually I'll find something with a couple of days or weeks playtime. Increasing the title's cost by an entire VR headset doesn't really improve my trust. Especially because a lot of the VR games I've seen on stream so far are just .. lackluster horror scare fares and entirely whacky things.
It is done as part of a broad effort to address health care costs and availability. You haven't seen any sign of this because anything favorable to Trump gets very little news coverage.

Robotics is a truly fascinating technical field - I was originally drawn to it because of its potential and its complexity. There is something alluring about having to understand mechanical, electrical, and software engineering expertly to create something unique.

What I quickly discovered though is it dominated entirely by technologists who believe that developing better technology will solve hard problems, without actually understanding the real intricacies of the problems they say they are solving.

There are so many brilliant engineers in robotics, and very few talented designers, product managers, and other necessary people to make robotics technology useful and ubiquitous for everybody. And that's probably why we have articles like this - because engineers only know about engineering (broadly speaking).

This was a really interesting read. In relation to the discussion of the predictive accuracy of a dataset with 13,000 features, I thought it might be worthwhile to bring up the idea of the "Curse of Dimensionality" for anyone unfamiliar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curse_of_dimensionality

The "tl;dr" is basically that more features is not necessarily a panacea and can actually cause more problems.

Originally the UUCP protocol was used, and most Usenet sites had no network connection other than a dialup modem (other than perhaps a local Ethernet, if that). Retention time was only a few days: available disk was very limited. Later, the NNTP protocol was developed to transfer Usenet over TCP/IP, which is what you're thinking of.
Proton team here. Regarding this claim:

> Everyone in Vilnius, Lithuania knows, that both, NordVPN and ProtonVPN, are being developed here by the people related to Tesonet

This is not true. Proton has staff in Geneva, Zurich, Skopje, Vilnius, and San Francisco. Years ago, we did sublease office space from Tesonet (one of the biggest IT firms in Vilnius) as alleged above, but there is no connection today.

ProtonVPN is fully developed (and owned) by Proton Technologies AG, the Swiss company that also operates ProtonMail. This can be verified in the Swiss commercial registry, which also lists all our directors: http://ge.ch/hrcintapp/externalCompanyReport.action?companyO...

Even companies like Facebook, Apple and Google employee humans to do work that people believe is done by "computers" and non of the companies seem keen on informing the public that they do in fact have humans scanning through massive amounts of data. So perhaps it is in fact cheaper, or the problems they face remains to hard for current types of AI.

Given the number of people Facebook employees to censor content and the mistakes they make I would label most of Facebooks AI claims as snake oil.

Which means either you add tracking data to the pages, or you look at the IP logs.

Along the lines of mister_hn elsewhere here, I don't do tracking. I had to insist that my web developer disable cookies, and Google Analytics. So that's out.

I look at my logs. Many are to google-proxy-66-102-6-174.google.com and the like. Many more are for local ISPs like host208-179-dynamic.233-95-r.retail.telecomitalia.it .

But even if I can get a company name out of it, that's not a lead. Which of the 20,000 people in the company should I contact?

To preserve my anonymity, suppose I make software to improve headlight beam designs in cars. (I don't know if that's a thing, but why not?)

Most of my clients will be car companies, or car part companies. Of which only a small number of people will work on that task.

So, if I get an inbound link from Renault, which of the 181,000 people should I contact?

Going to my business, it seems I shot myself in the foot. I have a no-cost/open source version and a commercial version which is significantly better (faster, more capable, etc).

The no-cost version, available via PyPI and elsewhere (that people unknown to me did) has decent market penetration, based on conversations with people at meetings. But they don't know about the commercial version.

I am far from the first to find that packaging/distro sites, which sit between the user and vendor, make it very hard for users and vendors to know about each other.

Launch HN: Dropkiq – Liquid Expressions Simplified
Hi HN!

I'm Adam and I'm on a mission is to simplify Shopify's Liquid markup language. My new product is called Dropkiq and you can find it at https://www.dropkiq.com/.

I'm so excited to be here right now! Two weeks ago, I had an amazing job (making lots of ) at a corporate job, and I just left to do a solo venture after about 10 months of going back and fourth if this was the right thing to do or not.. I won't lie, it's scary! I have some savings and I've done a lot of side projects the last 10 years, but this is the first one that I'm going all-in on!

At my corporate day job, I spent the last two years building a no-code Workflow tool where users could design logic flows and user interfaces all through the UI. We used Liquid, which is an open source library built by Shopify (https://bit.ly/2qrs6ve), to expose dynamic data so that users can choose what and how to display data. Much of my time was spent trying to teach users how to use the software that we created, and what I learned was that Liquid was the toughest part of teaching people. Even for people who we considered experts (that had used Liquid for years), there was a TON of guesswork and trial and error to arrive at a working solution... There had to be a better way...

The last two weeks, we created an MVP web application. This application was designed for Shopify designers and RoR applications who use the Liquid gem as a way to improve their process as they write Liquid. Dropkiq uses test data to give you instant feedback as you write Liquid, so that you know right away what data is going to be displayed to your users. No more guesswork or long iteration cycles to test what you've written! Additionally, we show you what data you have available to you so you can choose the data you need from a menu, rather than needing to rely on your memory (which is typical in my experience for quick-moving enterprise Ruby on Rails applications).

I would love your thoughts, feedback, ideas, etc.. Thanks!
Agreed. Unless you're moving around huge files, dropbox does this very well. Run the client on your linux and mac boxes and install the app on your iphone. Files are backed up to the cloud and available on all devices. All my txt notes, photos, and other files I care about are on dropbox and available on any device I want them to be.

And it's easy to share out individual files or folders from dropbox so others can access them.
It would be rational if you used an app that required the microphone, or if you allowed it permissions. By your logic it also seems rational if an android phone used it's microphone 100% of the time just in case you need to make a phone call.
There's an old book Functional Programming: Practice and Theory by Bruce J. Maclennan to learn this if interested, it uses standard math notation instead of being restricted to teaching an existing programming language.
