>Such a patient isn't going to correctly take their medication either, 30 days or not.

Exactly that is why the doctor specifically writes a 30 day so they come back in and can check their numbers.

>Insurance companies do a lot of bad stuff, but you seem to have invented a whole new class of things that they just don't do.

When you hear the term consolidation of the healthcare market this is what they are talking about. There are numerous lawsuits right now by doctors against insurers for dropping them, illegally, from their networks and sending their patients to new providers/practices that are owned by the insurers. You can find any number of those lawsuits, if you cared, but here is an article on the practice of insurers buying providers (to control all aspects of their costs), you have insurance A, odds are you are only able to go to a doctor practice/hospital owned by the insurer.

>There is no bonus for 30 day to 90 conversion

You are wrong, and it is clear you have never even heard of Medication Therapy Management (MTM) or OutcomesMTM. Walk into any big pharmacy (walmart, cvs, walgreens) and ask the pharmacist about OutcomesMTM and MTM generally. Or use this link to a OutcomesMTM report and learn about it http://www.outcomesmtm.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/2016MT...

>"Today, more than half of U.S. pharmacies are active
in OutcomesMTM programs, earning revenue for their clinical services while helping healthcare payors reach their goals."

>Each year, OutcomesMTM recognizes pharmacies and pharmacy chain organizations with exceptional performance in delivering MTM services. Top MTM Center and Top Chain awards are based on the organization’s overall effectiveness in delivering CMRs and resolving drug therapy problems through TIPs

Okay, I'm concerned about those things too, but I'm not sure how that relates to whether "the ends justify the means" is consequentialism.

It sounds like you want to distance consequentialism from tyranny. As a consequentialist, I can see the draw, but I think that it's vital that we admit that consequentialism, improperly applied, can be used to justify tyranny. If we pretend that can't happen, then we won't "notice the skulls"[1]--that is, we won't notice when consequentialists are supporting tyranny in our midst, because we've been arguing all along that that can't happen. It's vital that we see where consequentialism can go wrong so that we can take steps to prevent it from going wrong.

After an office break in and having my laptop stolen my company gave me dropbox to back up my home folder.

Dropbox actually managed to completely hose every single node_modules folder by the end of the week. It got confused somehow then ended up just splitting all the files up with dates on them as if there was a conflict across hundreds of files.

Stopped using it after that.

Block outgoing connections on port 443. MITM anything on port 80 which forwards to the server on port 443.

Your browser then loads www.whatever.com as http, even if the server doesn't allow http.

HSTS means if you've been to www.whatever.com before you'll be blocked. If you've never been before that doesn't help though.

In that fashion, typing www.mybank.com could redirect you to http://www.mybank.com (mitm) then to https://www.mybank.com-login.com/, where you get a green padlock.
Not all, but with the default settings I had freezes, even if I had more than 300% over provisioning. The requirement is "no GC pauses that cause frame drops" (well, occasional single-frame drops aren't really noticeable, but anything worse starts to become visible).

A large issue is afaik the lack of memory reclamation and the over provisioning required to even really work at all.
> Well people are asserting that they can use a PC - by which I mean a laptop with traditional form factor - on a treadmill, and they clearly can't - not without a bunch of hardware to help them out.

I feel like perching it on the control panel would work pretty well, or perhaps a tall side table if you did it a lot. Not sure what's so hard about any of that, but it's not really all that relevant IMO.

> And while I haven't done it, I'm pretty sure I can just spin up a desktop PC in the cloud and remote into it; it's not that hard, but it is inconvenient.

Can my mom do that? I mean, she's intellectually capable of learning how, presumably, but I wouldn't even bother with that rigamarole. I'd just buy a PC, and so would she. Both of us own PCs and iPads, but it's pretty clear which one we'd choose if we could only afford one or the other, and that's the point of all this: if you are a person who sits down at your computer and makes things, if you can only afford one or the other, without any other information (and most people will really have to dig into it to be sure, and still risk getting burned in the future), it's obvious which one you should buy.

> The point is that PCs have got use cases, iPads have use cases, and they both help people do "real work". In both cases there are situations where the form factor or operating system is an impediment to getting "real work" done.

I never said you can't do "real work" on an iPad. I do "real work" on mine all the time, and the whole point of my original post in this thread was that people are—as you are now, to me—talking past each other, using this "real work" phrase as an excuse to do so.

I'm typing this comment on an iPad. I love my iPad and I have a very good idea of what it can and can't do. All the things it can't do (for me, at least) are 100% imposed by the operating system and apps-over-files model.

> The fact that one aspect of iPad - multitasking - is rough around the edges, doesn't deduct from the overall proposition of iPad or the ability for it to be used in "real work". The form factor itself is a huge benefit to certain types of job, the OS is built to work with that form factor, and this is something that iPad does better than anything else (at least if sales are an indication).

Multitasking isn't the thing that stops me from totally replacing my PC with my iPad, and it's not the only thing the author of the OP article brought up (if he even brought it up at all).

See above re: "real work".

> The PC is not remotely the best tool for every computing job, and just because you're, say, a pilot, doesn't mean you're not doing real work.

See above re: real work. At no point in this thread have I suggested that you can't do "real work" on an iPad, and, again, I am personally a counterexample to that claim.

It could be that the percentage of sites that use videos is so low because many of the sites are from countries where English is not their first language thus it is hard for them to create videos in English.

> I must have missed the boat on this one. I remember in 2010 there was a brief period of time where NoSQL was in fashion, but it rightfully died pretty quickly to a small set of specialized use cases. There have been some cases where big data systems have replaced more traditional rdbms systems, but now you can use SQL for those too (like Hive SQL).

A few weeks ago I had a lead server-side architect call me up and ask if my client could tolerate eventual consistency. My answer was that "he could get away with that 10 years ago but that NoSQL went out of fashion and SQL came back in again."

To put it in a different context: Some people just go through periods in their life where they don't keep up and don't realize what was "new and exciting" 10 years ago turned out to be smoke and mirrors.

Is Open-Source Cryptography Secure?
CTEs solve the problem to some extent only for the data-sources. You often need to have snippets, expression functions, being able to compose multiple expressions, be able to compile SQL queries that are both efficient and readable if you want to be able to cooperate with different data analysts. It's not because SQL is limited, it works the way it's designed.

Take this example: https://github.com/rakam-io/recipes/tree/master/segment/ware...
It also makes use of CTEs and lateral joins but it also needs to use a templating engine (Jinja) for data models and Jsonnet for analysis models similar to LookML in order to provide that composability.

Once you get that much going on, nobody can launch it all anyway. If you could, Thos Edison's lab or Bell Labs would have probably scaled most hyperly themselves.

As a technology marketer, I think you should have much more technology that you are not selling compared to what you are promising to deliver.

Even better if you can just keep the technology coming to delight customers more so as you go along.

Sometimes a highly scaled startup seems to define itself as an unsolved problem where there is exponential uptake begging for a solution. If someone can figure it out.

> ... the misconception really is pervasively widespread, even among first-tier astronomy graduate students ...

Even first-year undergraduate astronomy students dont't think a star "is a colour" considering the useful information when dealing withs come from spectra, not photos.

Stellar classification on an H-R diagram is a convenience, that is all. It's already acknowledging "colour shift" from the Doppler effect (aka "red shifting"), but every first-year astronomy undergrad knows no two stellar spectra are the same, none are a single wavelength, and "white light" is a perceptual phenomenon not a physical one.

"I also wonder how software "artists" should be different from other artists. For example, in music, there are great teams of artists, like Lennon/McCartney"

Yes, in music, composers do work together although I wouldn't make a general rule about it. Writers tend to be solitary. They reach out to people when they're researching something for a story. But outlining, thinking through story lines, and the actual typing part are solitary. From interviews with writers, I get the impression that a good editor is indispensable for developing a story though.

Likewise, painters and sculptors in my acquaintance work alone.

imo any SQL that requires regression (I have implemented least squares in TSQL w/ recursive CTEs) is probably a bad use case for SQL in general - projecting, filtering, grouping, and sorting is what SQL engines are great at - repeating row access or referencing the previous row on the next row and then running a function is not going to be fast in most of the databases.

To the point on views - they can seem really useful, but many people dont understand that views dont eliminate "useless code" - most engines are going to evaluate everything in the view, and the nested subviews, and of course, the 10 depth views that were created because they are such a great abstraction.

This is where (to me) other non-database programming languages definitely come in - you can codify codegen or other methods that are locked in, not just a huge string and get a lot of the same value as your views (unless of course, everyone is querying the db directly.) If that's the case, then templating out code is still a good plan, but you can usually accomplish it via the client tooling people are using (most of the DB IDEs have pretty decent snippet support.)

> Why does a client <-> guacamole <-> VNC connection be less inefficient in terms of bandwidth compared to a direct client <-> VNC connection?

> I used NX for a while, and that does something very similar. On a slow connection you can actually see the compression artefacts when scrolling. It's not pretty, but at least it makes the machine accessible.

NoMachine NX is a different beast altogether. It’s comparable to RDP in that it deals directly with the actual (X11) objects instead of (just) their on-screen rendering. It’s basically advanced compression over X11 forwarding over SSH.

Burnout in Software Development Demystified
>Also, better heavy-lift capabilities will likely make space telescopes easier to manufacture and deploy.

Exactly. If ITS/BFR/whatever it is right now actually starts launching in the next 10-15 years we'll be able to deploy (relatively) cheap space telescopes of all variety.

Even better, if it does get operational, we'll be able to build one or more observatories on the moon where you'll basically have a 14 day night at any point and they could be operated entirely remotely and actually be upgraded/changed as needed with manned missions showing up to swap out instruments.

You could even go drop a bunch of smaller-optic telescopes on the moon and use optical aperture synthesis to do some pretty impressive stuff. Spread little clusters all around the moon and you'd have an optical astronomer's dream come true. Similarly you could distribute a bunch of relatively small radio telescopes on the far side of the moon and aside from some communication relay satellites (which you could use lasers for) you'd have virtually no interference from Earth.

While it's certainly said for research from Earth right now, if Starlink gets profitable it gives SpaceX more money to develop better launch technology which opens up space for far cheaper science.
