Nor can it beat the resource efficiency and unified platform look and feel that would be offered if platforms supported some kind of common GUI API...

Honestly I'm not a fan of any of the things you mentioned because they're so fat. They insist on making you build the UI within this humungous runtime that also usually forces you to use specific languages and tooling. These also (with the partial exception of React Native) do all their own rendering, so the user's machine now had to run a million parallel rendering engines.

GUI programming in 2020 is a fucking disaster.

yeah but shareholders aren't that immature, they know it's tangential
I've heard stories about people improvising "hooch" by letting apple or orange juice sit around and ferment and using that as a trade item for the other usual stuff. When I got stuck in a similar minimum security facility (no cells, just half-walls between groups of 4 beds so there was lots of socializing going on), people would trade their prescribed Seroquels and other such meds similarly.

I also found out about "making spread" and was amazed at the ingenuity of some folks and what they could do with ramen, water, some crumbled up cheetos and a pound cake. And how this was used in the internal economy. Fascinating stuff.

On the negative side, most of the people were in there for petty drug offenses, e.g. victimless crimes not involving violence which upset me greatly. Such a shame since most of these guys were obviously above-average IQ and otherwise nice, sometimes charismatic people. What a waste of tax dollars and lives.

So many stories just from my short stay there.

If many people are substantially harmed by wasting their time and energy on distractions, then those who waste less time will outcompete them. Whether the mechanism is common wisdom analogous to "don't drink alone or before the evening", parents teaching their kids in certain ways, religions that consider much "wasteful" entertainment to be sinful, or genes that contribute to conditions perhaps resembling autism where colorful flashy video registers as annoying or even painful, the problem seems likely to create its own solutions.

One of the premises of "Brave New World" is that all children are raised by the State, and are forcibly (a) oxygen-deprived in the womb to limit their intelligence and (b) subjected throughout childhood to indoctrination and hypnotherapy to make them say "I'm happy and content with my life, and my only desire is to chase consumer goods". I'm not sure why so many people seem to forget this.
"As already said, it's good to consistently have ids on relevant elements, as otherwise the test code complexity grows significantly.

Disagree. I have worked at Google, other startups and middle sized companies.
By far the least productive place per employee was Google. Not that the average employee was stupid but the average output per engineer was comically low. A lot of Googlers take it very easy there and work 10 to 5.

I'm a big fan of the Chesterson's Fence idea - maybe not applied slavishly, but as a general principle. And I have no idea where the journals came from. Nor do I have a suggestion for what to do about them. What I would be interested in reading about is any type of value that they bring to the process other than a name that was established long ago. I have yet to find much in the way that explains their current value for advancing academic knowledge.

>The American criminal justice system is one of the most dehumanizing, corrupt, and inhumane places I have ever seen.

So this. There's an entire stack of industries that thrive on this inhumanity, too e.g. Corrections Corporation of America, all the medical, legal and culinary/janitorial staff, lawyers and their retainers...

Then again, I've heard jails in other countries are considerably worse, with dirt floors and 20 people in a cell, like Brazil. That doesn't mean we shouldn't improve the criminal justice system here in the US and decrease the abuse of basic human rights in its correctional facilities, though.

My subjective impression is that flagging feature on HN is routinely abused by flagging-rings conspiring to suppress submissions and comments on certain topics.

I'm super happy that the ability to flag exists, but it would be nice if something could be done to stop its abuse.
That's a fair take, but I don't think it really applies to the article: almost all of the countries mentioned in it have prostitution some flavor of legalized via Abolitionism or Legalization (Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland) or Neo-Abolitionism (Sweden).

So the Library of Babel for music?

On another note, since melodies can be encoded into a text format, the Library of Babel has actually done this too.

Heck, there’s a page in the Library of Babel that reads “Your honor, Lady Gaga will one day steal this melody from the library of babel, encoded here in text format: {melody for ‘Shallow’}”

which may look something like this (search “lady gaga” https://libraryofbabel.info/bookmark.cgi?vakuygoqaattmqm315 )

DoT only solves the SNI problem during the DNS request itself. It doesn't do a thing about the SNI during the request to the actual website, which is where all the privacy concerns are.

Sure, but until we have encrypted SNI, which is in draft, meta data is going to leak, but that's a separate issue from either DoT or DoH.

But because DoT doesn't use HTTPS, you don't get some of its downsides like using cookies for tracking, for example.
Really, do you have a source for that? I assumed everything, basically everything public insurance driven, which are most things, are negotiated by the government.

Just like how family/walk-in doctors get paid in 15 minutes increments so they try to rush as many patient through the day since they get paid for 15 whether it was a 2min appt or not. Which is why you see walk-ins packed full of people with well over an hour times, because not every meeting is fast.

On the other hand, I assumed the specialist got paid for their individual services they provide (and the orignal doctor got rewarded for the referral), since that's what they get referred to do, a specialized service which can be rated. It's also why radiologists ($800k/yt) are the highest paid doctor-type, complicated stuff requires good pay and they negotiate these on a case-by-case basis.

Edit: I found a paper talking about capitation in Canada and it mentions that Ontario is the only pr]ovince doing it and not all GDPs opted-into it. This sounds interesting - if a bit trusting of the people reviewing "performance". But I support testing out new payment systems, the current one could use some optimisation no doubt.
Seems to have achieved its goal on you.
It's easy to get hung up on specific words, so it might be easier to consider meanings. What is the meaning of the phrase "What are you even talking about?" Is it a question? If so, what answer were you hoping for?

If I take you at your word that it's not rhetorical, then I could replace your question with "what do you mean?" – however, if you don't know what the poster means, why does the rest of the comment continue as if you understood them perfectly?

The more plausible interpretation of "what are you even talking about?" is "you are spouting nonsense". Yes, your wording is more polite, but the meaning is the same. The only way a polite insult isn't an insult is if you assume the person you're insulting doesn't understand it. Kinda makes it two insults, really.

All discourse is interpersonal, and how you disagree with someone's statements has interpersonal implications. I think your argument misses the point. I also think your argument is disingenuous and avoids engaging with substance in order to project misunderstanding onto the person trying to help you.

Both of those are opinions about your statements. Which do you think best exemplifies the following?

> Be kind. Don't be snarky. Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine.

That really does depend upon your definition of room tempreature. I'm pretty sure anything above about 30 degrees C will put pay to many food stuffs in fairly short order. Everybodies storage conditions differ, tempreature, humidity and light exposure all have an impact on how long foods will safely store.

The other element is how the item is handled. Traditional bacon stored in brine can last for months in most conditions however I would not attempt to store opened bacon for more than a week or so. Likewise if you have raw meat, it is all about what it has been exposed to that can make it dangerous. Cooked meat, if uncontaminated and cooked through can last for quiet a while and still be safe. Once contaminated it can become dangerous quiet quickly.

A state of emergency grants the government some powerful things. It should not be abused. If you are declaring it for a hurricane you want those power to do things like declare a mandatory evacuation.

The only reason to declare such a thing is if you need those powers. So what does San Francisco need those powers for?

> Victims (I use the term loosely) of the obesity epidemic may disagree.

Come on. Victims? They were forced to eat too much? Do people not have any agency at all? We still have junk food advertising and we have people that aren’t obese. So are they immune to the messages?

Or perhaps, is the “epidemic” one of a sedentary lifestyle? Perhaps the rise of the information economy and the lack of having to go plow a field?

Classing fat peoples as victims is ridiculous unless they were attacked by a spoon.
I went to a medical imaging workshop recently, and the consensus was that deep learning approaches will completely replace classical compressed sensing. They are using the same principles of acquiring randomized samples, so it's still compressed sensing, they just produce dramatically better results than classical CS techniques.

This proves not to be the case. Even intelligent people who are not used to wearing a mask will find that they regularly compromise the masks efficacy.

If worn by infected people it can reduce the spread, but if this is the case the infected person should not be around others anyway.
> Autopilot (plane) in cruise is much different than using it in the terminal environment.

A car in "autopilot" is more akin to the terminal environment, though. Things happen faster. Pedestrians run out in front of the car, oncoming traffic swerves to miss a pothole, and a second later you're smashing into them.

> It's worth mentioning that in both countries, there's heavy government regulation

No disagreements that there exists regulation that can be helpful. Definitely an important part of the discussion. Even in Singapore, which is largely a market based system driven by price discovery relies on a healthy (heh) amount of regulation. In the US, the food system is largely market-based, but the FDA (as well as state and local health departments) impose important regulations.

> In Switzerland the premium is capped at a percentage of a person's income with the government making up the shortfall, and insurance companies can't make a profit.

Keep in mind that in the US, health insurance companies report an average profit of ~5%. Even if you eliminated that entirely, you wouldn't see any savings worth writing home about. I work at an insurance company, and the majority of claims I see are pretty asinine. $500 added to provide sign language service to a deaf patient, or $300 charged for a papoose used while giving a child a cleaning. Because of the third-party-payer model in which the care is priced and paid for AFTER the services are rendered, the patient has little skin in the game. In the best case (for the patient) the insurance company simply pays the asking price (resulting in a sort of moral hazard), and in the worst case, the insurance company doesn't cover it and the patient gets a surprise bill in the mail.

> Doesn't this argument apply to insurance schemes in general, both public and private?

Yes, it's another reason why using insurance to pay for all care can be a sub-optimal way to allocate resources. Not having skin in the game can result in patient overconsumption.

> Agree, although I'm weary of assigning significant blame due to this factor. Are doctors making record wages? Are hospitals making record profits?

Yes, and yes[1][2]

> I'm skeptical how big of an effect this can be. Wikipedia has a chart that shows medicare spending as percent of GDP[1]. If you combine that with total US healthcare spending by GDP[2], you see that it accounts for less than a fifth of total US healthcare spending.

The effect I'm talking about is removing the largest consumers of healthcare (rich old people) from the market, which impacts how the ultimate price of goods/services is determined by the market.

People cancelling their trips to Disney parks and cruises will likely hurt them a lot. If people start cancelling spring break en masse, or this lasts long enough to affect the summer season, the lost ticket sales will be painful.
