>> They're priced this way because they're 80-90% cheaper than the previous treatment.

Your statement is true. But it also hints at another problem, which is that the default is to price life saving treatments as high as the market will bear. It's a pricing model in line with extortion, the only exception being that the extortionist doesnt have to threaten to kill you - the virus or whatever condition is already making the threat for them.

I was about to summarize by saying "sometimes a free market can mimick evil" but I just remembered it's not a free market at all. These treatments have government granted monopoly status via patents. That's why they are priced so high.

I've looked at LUA, and it's possible I missed a flavor, but I have a long list of things I want:

-Static types that match C for seamless interop.
-No GC
-First class actors
-Ahead of time declaration/allocation of actors and messages, with automatic async-like passing on a coroutine/actor waiting for an allocation, and automatic disposal of the actor after prolonged allocation failure.
-Hot swapping actors from a running system in the field
-Over the wire debugging and inspection of a running system in the field

AtomVM, an erlang VM for small devices is closer than LUA to what I'm looking for. However, I really want to create an environment made for embedded development, not try to tack a higher level runtime onto something like an ESP32 and have devices drop every 2 months from a memory leak.
Well, I've held my breath for three hours already. Which one stayed?
Also the circular imports was the least of the problems I’ve run into with mypy. They still can’t model a JSON type because it is recursive.

You may want to check out Moddable's XS runtime[1], which is exactly that. It's written in portable C, and "XS in C"[2] makes it easy to interoperate with C code you may write. And even if you decide to roll your own runtime, there's tons to learn from the source code.

The same was true of hepatitis C in England - even though NICE, the body responsible for assessing what drugs should be available on the NHS, found that the new treatments were cost effective at the price they were being sold for, the NHS balked due to the total cost of curing everyone and refused to offer it to anyone except a handful of patients who already had severe liver damage.

One problem with this analogy is that a surgeon does not go into the operating room solo to remove your appendix. You would first be seen by an anesthesiologist, someone with a nuanced understanding of biology and pharmacology, just to get you prepped for the operation (the surgeon likely has only a surface level understanding of this, and doesn't need it to perform her job). Once in the OR, you would also be attended to by Nurses to monitor your vitals and administer any medications and perform any life-saving interventions should something go awry. There also may be a Surgical Technician involved in preparing tools needed to perform the procedure. Perhaps an ultrasound technician is present to make sure the surgeon's incision hits the mark, etc, etc. The point is, there is still a ton of abstraction happening so that all the surgeon has to focus on is performing the procedure. This is very similar to how Software Development works on large projects, except we often have multiple surgeons operating on different parts of the same body at the same time!

I think a better analogy for software would be construction. Multiple people of different specializations and skill-levels working together to produce a single artifact. As a framer, you don't need to know how to lay the foundation, you just need to know how to build on top of it. Furthermore, you don't need to know the chemical process of concrete to pour the foundation, you just follow the recipe that's been proven. You don't need to know the math required to determine the integrity of a structural load in order to frame a roof, you just follow a plan. Some projects may require engineers and specialists who do have a deep understanding of such things, but only to create the blueprints.
There are quite a few adults today who might not realize or remember receiving blood transfusions as young children. It's worth asking your parents, and when in doubt get tested.
If you are talking about a virus only affect small amount of population, I can understand this marketing strategy.

But Hepatitis C. is a virus infects 143 million, which means it even with a $10k profit margin for one in ten here should be at least $1 Trillion profits. A company like BMS do expanding like $20 billion annually. For me all most like they could afford to operate like half of century for just one drug. No way it is sold for almost $100k price for just breaking even.

Correct: Sorry it was Gilead Science developed Harvoni. So $22B revenue minus $8 operating incoming.
Onedrive is unbelievably cheap in India. I think I initially bought it for ~Rs. 3700 for one year. Every fucking year after that they've been raising prices and sending me an email about it. And every year I check up on competition and nothing else looks this good (you need a LOT of features to make up for not offering Office 365).

I've moved to the US after that, but I didn't bother changing the location on the MS account.

I've spent roughly 20 years going back and Forth between C and C++, trying to decide whether to add the missing pieces my way to C or strip away what I don't need from C++. I'm currently in a C phase after having spent quite some time writing interpreters in C++.

The most common issue I see in C codebases is excessive memory allocation. In most other languages, allocating a chunk per instance is the only way, though the implementation likely does some kind of pooling/slab allocation behind the scenes. In C you have the freedom to arrange your allocations any way you feel like, and treat any segment of N bytes as a value of size N. As an example, most collections (vectors, sets, maps etc); tend to only work with pointers; which is a huge missed opportunity.

My two favorite kinds of collections in C are embedded linked lists [0] and deques. One reason is they both provide stable pointers (which is the main disadvantage of vectors), the other that they minimize the number of memory allocations.

I recently implemented a pool allocated deque library [1] in C that uses embedded linked lists to keep track of memory blocks and provides value semantics, which I hope will make my interpreters easier to implement as well as increase performance. Time will tell.

That's cool. Any chance anyone's successfully built either of these? I eventually built mlvwm but it segfaults (in Xephyr on Ubuntu). I didn't get xap to build; after installing all the dependencies I get "/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: bad value" and I have no idea what that means. I might try mlvwm on FreeBSD next, since its home page implies that it was mostly tested there originally.
They probably didn't realize they were in the high risk group until the diagnosis since the transfusion was so long ago. Even just talking to a doctor about screening tests can still be helpful since they will likely ask "have you ever received a blood transfusion" if you are asking about Hep C.

> Are most of us just the kids in the middle trying to be the fast ones? Is self-acceptance, tempering of expectations and emotional growth a road to happiness or the silver medal of people who were just not good enough?

I used to race bicycles competitively, and our coach grilled into our heads: "It's you vs. the track. The other racers are just obstacles in your way. You are not racing them, you are racing yourself." I was a mid pack racer, but that mentality, of focusing on personal growth was huge.

You define success for yourself. And by your measure, others may be more successful on your own measure, but they are not you.

I'll also add the trite: "hard work will be talent if talent doesn't work hard." My brother was a natural racer, but he hated to practice and got beat by riders who were better conditioned all the time.

He never had to beat them, he just had to beat himself.

Think of all of the fourth generation people in the U.S. with some link to Italian or Scottish immigrants who still wear kilts, or fly the Italian flag in their homes.

It's pretty silly to Italians and Scots I'm sure, but maintaining some semblance of this distant cultural connection isn't the worst thing in the world.

And the reality is the large immigration waves of both groups in the past left as much of a mark on American culture as it left on them.

Assimilation isn't a one way street, immigrants should expect to change American culture as much as American culture changes them.
That doesn't really change the comparison. It would be better if we made more efficient use of the wireless spectrum, but if we did then people would just replace more copper and fiber with wireless. The wireless spectrum would still be in contention as a scarce resource in a very practical sense.

By contrast, people registering every possible domain name is never going to happen. Just the computational resources necessary to do that don't even exist in the world.

What makes a name valuable isn't that names are rare, it's that people know your name. Things point to it. So we don't really need to ration them but we do need to make it so that once a name is yours, it stays yours. Nobody should be able to hold your own name hostage from you.

That depends on exactly what the candidate means by "burnt out" but it is a red flag that warrants asking some deep and probing questions. If it's just shorthand for "I was tired of my old job", fine, that's not a problem, probably. If it's actually incapacitating or the candidate has a history of such, well, that would be very concerning. I've been in the throes of long-term burnout before and I know very well how hard it is to get anything done when that happens.
The lack of high level docs up to the point of open sourcing was partly due to prevention of copycats but mainly due to lack of resources (chiefly time) to spend time writing. We were a small team and time spent on documenting stuff we all understood pretty well was time spent not chasing customers or improving our product.

Later: well, there is a Hyperscan paper and there may be more material coming out later.

Also, not to be a jerk, but a lot of people claim that they will read/understand/use this kind of documentation and my experience was that only a fraction actually do, and of those fraction, most of them don't behave in a way that's actually useful enough to justify having made all those docs. One is more likely to wind up with people kibitzing and making inane tweaking suggestions ("use more NFAs! no, use more DFAs"); less likely is meaningful OSS contributions or using the software when they might not have before.

Depending on the nature of the content being scraped, you can use the `sandbox` attribute to the iFrame to prevent scripts from running.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/if...

This was useful for a brief period when I ran a news aggregator that used iFrames to display content from other news websites. Adding the sandbox attribute prevented scripts, ads, modals, etc.

For the purpose of scraping, unless you're always on the same domain(or running a proxy to add CORS), I don't see how an iFrame is better than either a web extension or a backend script using Puppeteer.
> C is basically it for embedded development though.

This is the entire reason for me. With the way IoT is blowing up C actually might be gaining market share. I've done my research and things like TinyGo exist, and you can sort-of compile Rust for microcontrollers if you use all of the right crates, but it feels pretty risky to do so.

The purpose of work is to live the best life you can live in pursuit of your values. Money is necessary component of work, but not the essential factor.

> I'm not gonna lose only vacation expenses

By framing spending on recreation as a "loss", you have foreclosed your mind from even thinking about it rationally. Recreation is essential to man's life.

> also similar amount in lost income for every day I would not work.

Again, you are framing the issue in terms of loss. Money you don't make while on vacation is not lost income--it is not a thing you have that you lose. It is merely unearned.

> unpaid vacation

There really is no such thing as "paid vacation". Vacations are never paid for anyone. Some people have "holiday pay" or "PTO" or "vacation hours" or "sick hours", but those are all misnamed--they are earned from working and are factored into total compensation (all benefits are paid for by the employee's wages; greater benefits mean lesser wages).

> As I see it now I will give family vacation, meaning wife and children can enjoy different place (beach) and I will work from hotel room, possibly finding few free hours in early morning or late afternoon and free weekend.

Why do you think you are unworthy of vacation, that it is something to only be given to others? And, in practical terms, your plan will almost certainly lead to resentment and regret between you, your spouse, and your children. You will be thinking of the experience as a loss and sacrifice, your partner will feel lonely (the purpose of vacation is to recreation and rejuvenation of oneself and one's relationships), and you will miss out on shared unusual experiences with your kids.

The first question isn't how to justify a vacation or what kind of vacation to take. The first question is: Why do you want to take a vacation?

Yes, they just need one feature which Amazon could never have in order to disrupt it. They also need feature/price parity.

I wonder if, to reach price parity, you would have to anti-sell as much as you sell. So people’s overall bills go down because they have less stuff but everything they have they really need.

The un-match-able feature could be personal attention from people in your local economy. That also increases the price so there would have to be excellent marketing to help keep your dollars in that economy: you’d get your beer from a local distributor, and they would also market other local products to you. This is extremely difficult to manage now, so part of the decentralized system would have to be helping make that easier.

Essentially, the killer feature is anti-McDonaldsificstion. McDonalds isn’t actually the best possible food in most people, but it is the best possible food you could sell most people and still channel the profits through one bank account.

Decentralized platforms, by not having that requirement, can offer something better.
Am in similar situation. Working remote as a contractor, nearly full time. However I do observe my local holidays and take at least a whole unpaid month off per year.
