> At night they lock the place up so tight there is literally only one door in the emergency room that is open to the outside.

As another commenter below said, the ER is an entire business model on its own. The goal of an ER is to treat your acute illness or injury and then proceed to push you into a dedicated room to maintain stability. Most (unsourced) emergencies that come into the ER can very likely be stabilized by RN’s and consultation from a MD/DO. honestly, most orders in a setting like these tend to come from the bottom up (RN to MD for approval) if there is a trustworthy relationship between them. Depending on the severity of the patient, of course.

For an example, on 12/30 @ 2345hr, I got extreme abdomen pain and ended up in the ER. On 12/31 at 0200hr, the DO came in and palpated my stomach and concluded I had appendicitis. @ 0300 I was having a CT scan done. @ 0400 the DO was on the phone with the on-call general surgeon to consult with him about surgery for acute appendicitis which led to the eventual rupturing of my appendix. It was then at 1100 when I was in the operating room. Up until this point, every aspect of pain management (morphine every two hrs) and IV fluids were completed by a RN.

For my case, there was no need for a specialist to be on the clock. One was easily in reach but up until that next morning, I had no real need for them besides the one DO who came and put their hands on me as a formality prior to doing a CT scan. I’m mostly just thankful they have specialists to call to begin with.
My last two surgeries were done by a doctor who only had Wednesday as a day for surgeries.
This relies on carrier cooperation. Given they are the ones that caused this shit-show in the first place I wouldn't trust them to make it right. An insider capable of SIM-swaps would also be able to override this mechanism.
Yeah, this caught my attention too. I like my watch to be semi-heavy - I like to feel it's on my wrist. A huge part of watch-wearing community like heavier watches.

The author used huge generalization, probably based on his own preferences.
Nope, not at all.

You and only you decide if a thing is worth doing. If you want to learn Mandarin, so what? You will probably never be a best-selling or critically acclaimed author of Mandarin books. You are unlikely to be the next star in a Mandarin-singing boy-or girl-band. You will not be a TV host reading the news in Mandarin.

What of it? Does learning even a little Mandarin give you pleasure? Do it!

It’s insane to judge everything in your life by whether you are going to be in the top one tenth of one percentile. That is a recipe for constant stress an unhappiness, for forever judging yourself by impossible standards and coming up short.

In another company, we tried rolling out RFID badges that could be scanned at any workstation to log doctors in rather than passwords. This proved to be too inconvenient for doctors as well, and the system had to be rolled back within a month because doctors kept forgetting to keep their badge with them and would then throw a hissy fit because they wanted to go back to the old system where all workstations were permanently unlocked.

Security IT is, in my experience, one of the most amenable in terms of trying to come up with new ways to serve customers because the customers require it (all customers require it, not just doctors), but doctors are on an entirely different level when it comes to resistance to change.

He did much better than most. This captioning task is extremely hard even for professional cartoonists. Few could have done better.

I admire Yang's intelligence, and think it is a shame that we do not filter our leaders more for cognitive ability, as Singapore does. This is almost enough to make me want to vote for the man.

However, his big policy item, BIG justified by Luddism, is confused economics. Comparative advantage basicly guarantees human employment until robotic labour is 100% as capable as human labour. True, after that point the value of labour declines below subsistence. But this implies human-level, or more likely, smarter than human AI. At that point, economic policy is pointless as all that matters for human welfare is the objective function of the AIs.

For it is they who will have the power to shape the world. Let us hope they are coded with care.

The lump of labour fallacy is itself a fallacy, as it would fail to be true if we had robotics and software that could do 100% of all economically relevant cognitive tasks. Economists who don't mention this limiting case when denouncing Luddism really do annoy me.

Still, in practice it appears to me to be a very good heuristic for the reasons mentioned above. Ironically, the Luddites are wrong for the "right" reasons, applying economic theory dogmatically to realms where it ceases to matter. And the Economists are right for the wrong reasons, ignoring a limiting case that is obviously possible and probably inevitable.
LOL, I actually grew up near Chernobyl and my parents STILL work on CHNPP. So I do know a thing or two about the tragedy.
One thing for sure is that it is very speculative to assume pretty much any death toll rather then immediate deaths by liquidators right after the tragedy (<100). I am not sure that cancer rates in Chernobyl are greater than average or, especially, near the vicinity of coal/gas plant.

And if you really have a degree in physics you should know that nuclear waste is a very manageable problem. Finally nobody advocates about building more ChNPP style reactors - there are plenty extremely safe alternatives. France is a good example on this

And more money in the investors' pockets.

Essentially, the summary of this article is that this dude thinks he can leverage these song catalogs better than other investors. He's literally a music fund manager for music.

His firm is "overpaying" for these back catalogs because he's essentially putting together a collection that might command more revenue than other "fund" managers, and possibly set up something of a targeted monopoly, and he's betting that they can extract more value than less competent managers and record labels.

It wasn't directly addressed in the article but I suspect that the general strategy is to own the majority the sorts of songs that are more suitable for generating Synch fees. A big corporation is going to look around for a collection of songs that tend to do well in a TV commercial, for example. Perhaps they find that Hipgnosis happens to own all of them, and now they have to pay a higher rate, and all of a sudden the high price paid for this catalog doesn't seem like overpaying.

I think you're being downvoted for having a negative viewpoint, but what you said is very accurate. I'm not French, but I've spent some time in France and loved it. France is a gorgeous country and people were generally friendly and welcoming, Paris is the exception. There are parts of Paris which are nice, but a significant chunk of the city is exceptionally dreary (partly due to architectural design, heavy use of brutalism, etc), dirty, and many people I encountered in Paris were very rude to me, even before I opened my mouth.

I've traveled all over the world, Paris is not anywhere near that bad compared to many places I've been, and generally I enjoy most places I spend time in because there's something positive to be found everywhere. But I wanted to reinforce your viewpoint, because it is not inaccurate, even though I find it to be somewhat one-sided. I don't believe sharing this deserves downvotes, especially in the context of the link.
Show HN: My Attic
I drive in smallish city. I never drive more than ten minutes for a ride. This means that at night (when I'm the only one on the road) some people don't get rides. I know it would be nice if we had people who could drive around on their own dime and give everybody rides, unfortunately that does not exist. I will happily go anywhere in a city where a ride will be worth my time and effort. We could increase the cost of short rides and pay the drivers (and charge the drivers) for the time spent driving to the rides. Then the drivers will come.

However, you are asking that drivers be willing to take 40 minutes out of their day to make 3 dollars. These drivers often barely make it by as it is. That is neither profitable or sustainable.

The title and one place in the body call it 500 acre, while one other place calls it 500 mile.

500 square miles is 320,000 acres. (500 miles) squared is 160,000,000 acres.

One other place in the body refers to 1,600,000 acres being viable to reforest.

I think it was just a typo for 500 acre.
Couldn't agree more. Consumer grade routers are all buggy or have some proprietary features that just don't work with Openwrt.

I've been using ASUS based routers for the last ~10 years (with Openwrt) and a few months ago decided to upgrade to something else.

After researching what routers are out there, I ended up getting a Turris Omnia [~320 eur].
It's running a fork of Openwrt. Can probably run vanilla Openwrt without too many issues.

There's also Turris Mox - a modular design from the same people, but I ended up getting Turris Omnia, since they pack 2gb of RAM into that router and it has 3 miniPCIe slots on it.

Some of the replies to Rowling's tweet are surreal - not wanting to see someone fired is framed as some horrible attack. There's no distinction made between Rowling opposing the firing, and trans people being hunted for sport on Hogwarts. Equivalent to a libertarian saying "A 1% income tax to fund the police?

It definitely alters my mood and I can feel it happen.

Apple did something similar with their ceramic/gold composite watch - there's some good info here:

https://leancrew.com/all-this/2015/03/apple-gold/

Unsurprisingly, paying a huge premium for a watch with less gold in it wasn't very appealing to people. Interesting idea though.
I think the interference that is caused by visitors to the theme park is limited, since the cell phone / WiFi bandwidths are around 800 MHz to 5 GHz and the operating range of the telescope is 70 MHz to (max) 3 GHz. I think the focus of most research will be in the lower part of that spectral range, i.e. the frequencies that are not emitted by consumer devices.

Edit: the directivity of such a large telescope is also big. Around 45 dBi at the lowest frequency (70 MHz). That means the telescope is not very sensitive to radiation from sources near the horizon and more sensitive to radiation coming from it's pointing direction (closer to zenith).
Another thing your examples of projects developed outside of the main repo have in common is that they're open source.

When I was working on an open source project at Google (mod_pagespeed) we initially developed it in the main repo with exports to GitHub. Then we moved our source of truth to GitHub to make it easier to work with external contributors.

(Speaking only for myself, not for Google)

There’s a global peer group called Entrepreneurs Organization I’ve been part of for five years that satisfies this for me. It’s for founders/owners with $1m+ in revenue. 14,000 members around the world broken up into smaller chapters. The NYC chapter has 200 members, for instance. eonetwork.org

YPO is another one, though for larger companies ($8+ million in revenue).

The number of unauthorized SSH attempts will also very much depend on your IP address.

I've hosted my own SSH server at home and from a university dorm room. At university, I'd get way more attacks (usually from foreign IPs) than at home. Also, on IPv6-only, I got zero attacks. I run everything behind a Wireguard VPN now, so I don't know how things have changed in the past few years.

It would be interesting to see an analysis of attempts based on IP address type (residential, business, various universities, various clouds). How does the number of attacks compare within and between these categories? Perhaps there could be a cool graphic with arrows (or some other indicator) showing where attacks are coming from and targeting.
That still sounds like a monorepo. Google is using external projects and has public facing projects so isn't mirroring the way you should handle it? In what way could it be more monorepo like?

I can’t really understand what’s happening here.

Getting good at surfing is hard.

Getting up on small, mostly foam waves is not hard. Typically achievable your first time out, nobody I know that is remotely athletic has struggled to do that in 2-3ft surf. Once you get that first wave you are hooked and then its all nailing the timing. Which takes time.

Practicing the prone to standing explosive move on the beach 10-15 times before hand is helpful.

No idea why these people are so bad.
Your argument falls apart where you claim something is abundantly clear, when you can't even clearly describe what you think is abundantly clear.

You're claiming red light isn't the perception of red. I can be on board with those semantics, but they are just semantics. In that case, I'd say the phenomenon described by the terms is that red light is the electromagnetic radiation in the long range of the visible spectrum, and the perception of red is the chemical cascade starting with the stimulation of L-cones and ending with the firing of neurons in the visual cortex.

You keep saying that red light and the perception of red are "highly correlated" with red, but I'm saying, there's no evidence for anything besides red light and the perception of red. You're saying that the brain and the mind are made up of qualitatively different material, but I'm saying, "qualitative" implies "observable", and you've yet to present an observable phenomenon that is clearly the mind.

Either the mind is indistinguishable from the brain, in which case we don't need a second term for it, or it's a distinguishable phenomenon that you've failed to actually demonstrate exists. It's not clear which is the case, because you haven't made it clear what observable phenomena you are calling "the mind".

A juice fast on chemo would kill you. It would throw your electrolytes out of whack and starve your body of protein. The lack of calories would leave you too weak to complete treatment. And cancer loves sugar. So you'd be feeding your tumors while starving your body of what it needs.
Yes they both have produced lots of refugees. The Bosporus is easier to cross than the Mediterranean, so more Syrian refugees have ended up in Europe. Lots of people died and had their lives destroyed in both wars. The Syrian conflict, even though it started later than that in Libya, is at this point largely winding down except for one location in which "rebels" still remain. The recognized sovereign government maintains public order and provides life-improving services. Libya OTOH is still entirely a hellscape of violence and privation. They have regular public slave markets, etc.

You'll see occasional media content stressing the horrors of Syria, but there's never anything about Libya. That's because reporters (justifiably) fear to go there.
