It's not hate speech. In Canada, there is actually a definition of hate speech, and it has to be something a reasonable person would consider to be an incitement to violence. Nothing he says would count as that. In America, there is actually no such thing as "hate speech" - free speech is absolute. So either way, there's no reason he should not be able to speak in a normal venue.

We've found that standing on a soapbox in the park doesn't go so well either, as Antifa protests can cause violent conflict (virtually always started by the Antifa side). Ironic.
How does this relate to GNUnet?

The high level description could be the exact same for both. So how architecture and implementation differ?
Well, here's a couple of points. Ultimately, the decision of how many residency slots to fund comes down to Congress. Here's an older article that discuss how the cost of residency slots is covered, but it's essentially covered by Medicare:

https://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/12/17/how-medicare-s...

Now, hospitals could just fund additional slots directly, but they don't. That's a problem as well. Over the years, there have been several bills introduced to increase this number. Here's an article about efforts in 2013 and 2015:

https://www.the-hospitalist.org/hospitalist/article/122261/h...

Here's another one for this year:

Generally speaking, they don't pass for a variety of reasons of which the AMA is only one.

I think it helps to understand that there's a large, complicated system that depends on this artificial supply limit and dismantling only a single section would not fix the rest. Universities make a huge amount of money with the tuition they charge medical students, which is much higher than for other degrees. They can charge this knowing that these students can absorb the debt using their future earnings, which are dependent on this limited supply. Mortgage companies have special home loans for physicians because they know this artificial supply and nature of physician contracts means that their money is nearly guaranteed. I could go on, but there many, many industries that depend on this system.

Again, I don't agree with this, but I think it helps to understand that it's not just the AMA who has a vested interest in keeping the status quo. Every industry who benefits from this system has interest in keeping it the same and actively lobby for it. Further, fixing this shortage problem necessarily means finding fixes for all of the other industries that depend on this money.

On top of this, even if we eliminate the soft cap on residency slots, it's not necessarily going to fix the problem with supply. The primary issue isn't lack of physicians, it's lack of family medicine physicians who want to work outside of large markets. While it depends on specialty, big markets like D.C., Seattle, and Denver can be very, very difficult for a physician to find a job. In fact, I know many physicians who live in these cities and then work remotely a week or two a month in a small town in a different state doing locums. They're paid a premium for such work and they enjoy it, but they'd never want to live in these places. Unless you want to force physicians to work in these markets, that problem doesn't change.
I transitioned from software engineer to engineering management 2 years ago. It was by far the most challenging (still rewarding) moment of my career. I was lucky to have the opportunity to build up a team from scratch to take over the services and architecture I designed, developed and operated.

Biggest lesson learned: you're no longer the decision-maker on your technical stack. Your team is responsible. Still, you’re liable for the result and its impact on business. That duality is hard to reconcile for former engineer. The solution? Build a culture. Better: create the conditions for a sustainable culture to emerge and persist.

That insight, and many other advices for new managers are compiled at: https://github.com/kdeldycke/awesome-management

This article compares car and fuel cost, but leaves out periodic maintenance costs. How many oil changes or timing belt does a Tesla have to do in a lifetime? How many did he include in the analysis?

Look, I like Toyota Hybrid technology. I had a Prius. But I can see when you leave out information that could potentially hurt your thesis. I don't know the maintenance costs of the Tesla vs the Toyota. But this certainly looks fishy to me. I wouldn't place my hands on fire for this guy as you do.
The root cause is the people receiving the healthcare in a pediatric ICU don't have the ability to pay for it, and based on the lack of votes for taxpayer funded healthcare, voters also don't want to pay for it.

Notice how people 65 and over have no issues getting their healthcare paid for. That group of voters has a very high voter participation rate.

- SapphireDB is truly Open Source, MIT!

- There demo worked like a charm!

We could really use more projects like this out there.

Here is a criticism though:

- It seems currently to only support Angular (?), which is gonna harm its adoption.

My recommendation would be to commit to Svelte, it seems like it will be the "next big thing" in the JS world, and could help drive adoption.

Obviously, this is something we're trying to do as well (https://gun.eco/docs/Svelte). If you're looking for a Firebase alternative, GUN is used in production with 11M+ downloads a month, but is NodeJS based so it won't work for the .NET audience that Sapphire is targeting.

What I think would be cool to add: (from my bias)

- Support graph data.

- Work offline / local-first.

Either way, thanks for building & posting about Sapphire, it is nice to see there is still big demand for Open Source Firebase alternatives!
Payment issues. Sending and receiving money to/from countries deemed high risk is hard. Can't do a normal bank transfer to Venezuela, for example. That applies to Coke, too - "we" can't actually send one to any part of the world.
> You seem to be saying that advertising is like medicine, it might taste bad but it will end up being good for me in the end.

Goodness me, no that's not what I'm saying and I apologize if that's how it came out.

The research paper said advertising leads to aspirations, and this is inherently bad because aspirations lead to unhappiness.

I'm saying aspirations are a good thing, regardless of their source. I didn't know this was a controversial position.

But I'm also agreeing that when advertising creates or emphasizes a non-existent problem to sell you something that doesn't benefit you in the long run, then that's a shitty thing to do. There are many laws in most countries that curb the worse examples of this, and we could almost certainly benefit from more of them (or stronger enforcement... I dunno, not a lawyer).

As for the quantity of advertising, I said this in another response as well: How do you intend to limit it? While any ban is obviously a negative to my business, on an ethical standpoint I'm fine with such a ban as long as it's complete. What I'm not ok with is saying "there can only be X number of ads" because THAT's when things get unfair. That's when the advertisers with the biggest pockets will get the advantage, because they'll be the only ones who can afford to buy such a limited supply of ads.
As mentioned it's way easier for software developers to immigrate to the US, and there is no organization limiting the number of software engineers trained into the profession every year. There is an additional confounder in that the biggest and highest paying software companies are all located in the US and exporting products throughout the world, which is not how it works with physicians.

I'm still miffed that Firefox (et al) nuked the RSS feed button in the URL bar. RSS has a lot of problems, but we could have improved it instead of just giving up entirely in the face of shitty closed platforms like FB, Twitter, etc.
I'm sure this isn't the case for every doctor, but what I've observed is that scale seems to be killing everything. When you have 10 minutes with a patient, have no long-term relationship, ship them off to a specialist that has even less context of their overall health, and ultimately just prescribe them meds to treat a symptom, that person does not get healthier. Over thousands of patients that starts to challenge any sense of moral obligation you originally had when entering the field. Then you become disillusioned and burn out.

The irony is the part about everyone becoming less healthy. That creates more demand for medical services. Rinse, repeat. We truly have the worst system imaginable in the US. It evolved over time. It's nobody's fault. It's everybody's fault. It needs to be burned down and rebuilt. It seemed like we had a chance with the ACA but it was pretty clear early on that it wouldn't fix the root causes and it hasn't.
I don't follow. How is that not "shutting down"? It's contracted to life support in order to empty the existing pipeline to minimize losses.

Maybe this is a Ship of Theseus kind of thing. They get rid of almost all employees, empty the pipeline, and then retool. What's left of College Humor?
That's comparing tracking advertising with bad data to tracking advertising with good data. Where's the comparison of tracking to non tracking advertising?

Tracking advertising costs the advertiser more (and makes the ad provider a lot more), but there's little evidence to suggest it's significantly more effective than content advertising. And this isn't even accounting for the enormous social cost of private surveillance.

If you were seriously contemplating starting a new life in a new country then the best time to do it is before you get married and start having kids. You should even be thinking of marrying someone local so you have extended family to help with the kids.

As an attending anesthesiologist in a teaching hospital (University of Virginia Medical Center) for 15 years, I had occasion to interact with only one (1) software engineer who decided to change careers, attend med school, and then become an anesthesiologist. He was super-smart but oddly enough not an exceptional anesthesiology resident, though highly competent by the time he finished training with us and went on to a career in academic medicine, where he was a superb teacher.

The reason he had difficulty as a resident from time to time is that he was reluctant to do things unless there was a logical reason to do so. In medicine, and especially anesthesiology, where five minutes of respiratory obstruction/anoxia can lead to permanent brain damage or death right on the OR table, there are times when you do what works and has been shown by experience to work WITHOUT reasoning about the absolute best thing to do. Sometimes the correct action is not logical.

How is the upfront cost lower? If you know software development you could make a simple game quickly. You can add ads to it and release it, except that now you need to essentially be a lawyer to know that the ad network usage you have does not violate GDPR in some way.

Is there an easier way to read the job postings?

Overall, the repo is very easy to navigate. The challenge is that the .txt files aren't .txt files. They're markup.

Perhaps:

- Generate a website where these postings are easier to read

In my opinion, drinking nonfat milk is a strong indicator that you're willing to follow dietary advice even if it's unpleasant. I can't stand the stuff.
No we are not life, we are living beings. Life finds a way but living beings die and their species go extinct.
If you don't look at the study, how will you know if they accounted for that or not? There are techniques available to control for correlations like that.
I feel like this name nicely captures the fact that this almost surely has no real-world use and is likely to break stuff (file system autodetection, for one...). I also like to draw parallels to the notion of a cursed idea.

The study is not causal, you can't say that no-milk is good for longevity, just that it's associated with it. Switching to no milk or low fat milk won't necessarily help you live longer because it could just as easily be other dietary choices.

These kinds of studies are worse than doing nothing because they lead people to believe that one small change could be the difference in your length of life when all they do is observe correlations. Hell, the guy even said he could easily argue for any conclusion about dairy that was asked of him!
Drinking no milk at all is best! Reducing dairy intake reduces Parkinson's disease rate[0], reduces hip fracture rate[1], reduces twinning offspring rate in women[2], and may even reduce Prostate Cancer[3]. You really don't miss it after a while, and the most annoying thing is modifying your restaurant orders to remove all the cheese :/

I hoped it would discuss how SSDs cope with sudden power loss, but it doesn't seem to.

I remember this page but I don't know of a modern update: http://lkcl.net/reports/ssd_analysis.html

These days, if I want an SSD for my desktop and want to minimise the chance I have a disk problem and have to restore from backup, would I be better off with one "data centre" drive (eg Intel D3-S4510), or two mirrored "consumer" drives (perhaps from two different manufacturers)?

The prices look similar either way.
True, the article at least doesn't mention if milk fat consumption correlated with other health factors. It mentions that the study considered frequency of consumption, but doesn't say if that affected results. Like much science reporting, it makes more questions than it answers.
It is not just advert, I think there is similar pattern to knowledge of something better exists. The internet, or Social Media with instagram, Facebook etc, has make you realise how much better something / life could be.

All that stuff you couldn't get.

Ignorance is bliss.
For the record, if you live in CA, I don’t believe this applies to Medi-Cal. Unless you’re a “Medi-Cal individual who receives long-term supportive services or who enrolls in Medi-Cal through certain disabilities”, I believe only income is tested.

I have seen this happen as a chronically ill patient for the past 30 years. There is a wave of poorly understood chronic illness and doctors are powerless to treat it. It must be exhausting to tell so many people that there is nothing they can do. I say this with 100% sincerity. It must be a nightmare to work so hard without the reward and satisfaction of significantly improving people's lives.
You're not wrong, but it is much faster than old edge and just as nicely integrated with touch. I say it's a big upgrade! :)

One of the major difference here is that game platforms have a relatively less power than Apple/Google in their current business practice. It's usually game platforms that tries to attract game developers/publishers into their platform (sometime with strong incentives and even subsidiaries) to win the market and publishers are the decision maker; the same thing doesn't usually happen in the app store case. Game devs don't have much incentives to sue platforms as long as there's competition between consoles. Note that things were different in the NES/SNES era and there actually was a number of antitrust cases for Nintendo.

But honestly, I feel that competition within a single game consoles should be allowed. This doesn't have to take a form of side-loading (which obviously has a significant downside of piracy which hurts game devs/publishers even more than monopoly/monopsony) though.
There are a lot of people who exercise so they can do things like get dessert instead of skipping it, or drink whole milk instead of low fat.

Of course the indie dev wouldn't be fined. These regulations are meant to be used selectively. Essentially, you're encouraged to break the law because everyone else on your level is doing the same. Then you just hope you're not the one that's made an example of.

I'm not saying you don't hold FB responsible for lying. If they made false promises they should be sued and the courts should make a proper judgement.

Having said that, if you're CollegeHumor, what you can't do is abrogate responsibility for your business decisions, one of which is risking your entire business on an unproven video platform based on the promises of FB salespeople. You still have a responsibility to validate the platform and not just be a fully trusting stooge. It's like a pedestrian crossing the street when the light is green. The pedestrian should still look both ways, even if they are in the right because it's no consolation to be dead and correct.

For the end user it is difficult. Files can be recovered as long garbage collection hasnt happened yet. SSDs require the space to be empty before new data can be written to it. So often times the deleted space is empty. If files are stored in the recycle bin or trash those can still be easily recovered.

It was once explained to me that writing to a HDD is like painting. Where new data can just be painted over the top of the old discarded data. While writing to an SSD is like writing on a chalk board where the old data has to be removed before you can write over it.
