You accused them of illegal behavior when they acted correctly on information you explicitly gave them. You seem to expect them to divine your implicit intent from non-payments related product usage data. But for all we know you have search history turned off, and anyway most privacy advocates would consider a join like that suspect at best. Then you publicized this false information about illegal behavior as broadly as you could. If that's not misinformation I don't know what is.

To be clear, I'm not saying you did so maliciously. Seems like an honest mistake on your part. Well, it did until you started digging in.

Part of optometrists' job is to check for common eye diseases when they perform eye exams.

They can also do a residency to specialize in various eye diseases.

For example an optometrist can actually get licensed to do laser treatments for macular degeneration.

> an employer has a responsibility to prevent its employees from engaging in risky behaviors when they're off the clock

_IF_ (and I absolutely don't know in this case, but we've all certainly heard of it before) an employer expects that you will be responsive just because you have a phone with email / Slack access, etc., let alone if they factor that into performance, whether it be informal or formal, then perhaps they do (though certainly a minority, and, again, I have no idea about this particular instance and employer).
That's actually not true. There was one swing and miss. Tom Verducci said so himself in his SI article the day before he went on MLB Network and said there was zero (https://www.si.com/mlb/2020/02/20/astros-cheating-scandal-cl...). The Statcast data show one, too. I have no idea why Tom Verducci changed from one to zero. It really doesn't change his point if it's one or zero.

I worked at an emergency homeless shelter for a while, long ago, and saw the same kind of thing you talk about. I'm not sure it was quite as deliberate, but you can absolutely set someone up in a perfectly nice free apartment and they'll still somehow find themselves back on the street in short order.

Now, that's not everyone! Not by a long shot. You're absolutely right that throwing money by itself is not going to eliminate homelessness, but throwing some money would probably take a good-sized chunk out of it.

Man if you're an engineer someone should take your creds.
To replace an AWS service, you just plug in a different service integration, or use a literal API complete clone. To replace the use of any part of K8s with something non-K8s, you basically have to replace all your use of anything in K8s. So the debt is much higher with k8s because it takes much more engineering work to get off it and it's not compatible with anything but itself.

Furthermore, just because someone has a managed k8s doesn't make it less lock-in or less work. With AWS you don't need to use a cluster of anything. With k8s you are signing yourself up to tons of complex services and specific design and operation paradigms. With AWS you have no such inherent restrictions.

K8s is inherently more complex and difficult to use than AWS services, which aren't even a good comparison because they are so simple by comparison.
> A lot of the Microsoft Azure stuff is simply because companies do large volume deals with Microsoft for Windows/Office/Sharepoint and Azure becomes a piggyback. "Well we are paying Microsoft millions of dollars anyway, why not use their cloud too?

It's not just about licensing fees - it's also practicality. That, and Azure is actually really good (relative to the other major players, GCP and AWS).

If you're a Microsoft-shop, you use Active Directory. Naturally, Azure Active Directory (AAD) works well with your existing on-prem AD deployment, so with very little effort, your employees get SSO for your shiny new cloud services.

Yesterday, I was galavanting their marketplace for apps that you can use in your GCP and I like the idea a lot. I think they are doing something similar for Firebase and call it "Firebase Extensions".

I think this can also be another gold rush. I was hoping to find Cryptocurrency exchange ticker dataset(but there were only at low resolution). I think Salesforce has such a marketplace where developers write apps for automating things, enable things, sell data and so on. Would be nice to have a standardized API marketplace.

So much potential there. Easy to start with and a lot of depth if you want to dive deeper.

They at least approve of a system where the exchange of currency for carbohydrates is a good system, especially since they gain wealth from it. They also agree with a system where if you have enough money they will sell you whatever you want at a set price. And yeah, some small portion of that population may get diabetes or become obese, and they are OK with that.

Versus, say, rationing and strict diet control from some other authority. Or all carbs are free. Or any other variety of other systems.

It doesn't mean they encourage poor outcomes, since typically poor outcomes is bad for business. Nor are they responsible. But they do approve that this system is good and participate in it.

And you can make your own judgement call if you think this system is "good" and one you want to participate in.

I once owned adolescent cats that would chase each other around the house at night.

Thankfully the angle was such that I did not receive any claw marks to the face, but it definitely impacted my sleep quality.

Well in the last few years, we have seen an uproar of the right wing party „AfD“. Some attribute that to Merkel‘s Party moving away from the conservative side of things.

After Fukushima, Merkel pushed for immediately closing out all nuclear power plants, which some say also say is in conflict with our plans of becoming carbon neutral. Massive financial support for solar and wind energy has been stopped as well, which devasted at least the local solar industry.

We had waves of right wing terrorism, her party is pushing something like a „black 0“ (no new debt) instead of investing in infrastructure, schools and the like. Even pushing that on other European countries like Greece or Spain, which definitely would need to invest.

There are just slow or no plans for meeting climate goals or modernize the automotive sector.

While I certainly can't speak for all diehards, I hear a lot of complaints about the state of Apple's documentation from long-time developers these days. (In my experience, the true Apple diehards are often very critical of the company, but they tend to have specific trenchant critiques.)
It’s so abundantly clear that most documentation writers at google have NEVER used their own products in production (nor do they ever intend to).

This is how I imagine their meetings to discuss this goes:

“Users leave our documentation pages in under 15 seconds! Our documentation is so clear and efficient! For some reason their hardware analytics show that the device falls 20 meters and shuts down afterwards, but that is surely an unrelated event!”
Can you provide any citations for that 80/20 breakdown?
You've got it backwards. Pharmacists are hired because it's legally required. They're there to catch the dosage mistakes, look out for potential interactions, and to answer questions about medication and the proper usage. You cannot legally distribute prescription medication without a pharmacist physically present.

CVS and Walgreens would love to get rid of the pharmacists -- they hate that each store needs a couple $110k/year pharmacists just to handle the legal requirements and to be on-site for the few cases where something needs extra attention. That's why they put them to work doing the manual retail side of it to get the most for their dollar.

Your experience (or rather, your wife's experience) seems to be about the difference between seeing an optometrist and an ophthalmologist.

Yes there's value in just lying there with your eyes shut and one of the books I read supported that. Throw in some meditation if you're into that too.

The common refrain is to avoid it because you'll associate the bed as a place of not-sleeping, but that ship has sailed for most of us anyway. The same book said "rituals" (such as getting up and reading a book instead) can be harmful as the habits become normalised and become just one more required step to sleep, instead of an occasional help.
Frankly basketball, baseball, and to some degree football are all taking on a WWF feel.

I’ve basically stopped watching all pro sports, I was an athlete in school, and for a long time and avid sports fan, but no more.

The rule changes in the NBA, caused me to drop the sport, the PED scandal of MLB caused me to drop MLB, and the rule changes to football are making it feel a whole lot like The NBA.

I didn’t watch a single NFL game last season, and I only DVRed the NFL playoff games, and only skipped through one game, deleting the rest.

Even college sports have lost their appeal. Only one sport left and that’s boxing, but the pay per view rates have caused me to stop buying those events.

I think pro spots have peaked and will continue to decline.

Building a Citation Manager for PDFs on Google Cloud (Firebase)
Defers can happen in a loop, so you need a stack for correctness. This change is that the compiler will now automatically inline the defer-ed call so they appear much the same as a direct call at the end of a function if they happen at most once.

The full design doc is here: https://github.com/golang/proposal/blob/master/design/34481-...

> Go 1.13 implements the defer statement by calling into the runtime to push a "defer object" onto the defer chain. Then, in any function that contains defer statements, the compiler inserts a call to runtime.deferreturn at every function exit point to unwind that function's defers.

> We propose optimizing deferred calls in functions where every defer is executed at most once (specifically, a defer may be on a conditional path, but is never in a loop in the control-flow graph). In this optimization, the compiler assigns a bit for every defer site to indicate whether that defer had been reached or not. The defer statement itself simply sets the corresponding bit and stores all necessary arguments in specific stack slots. Then, at every exit point of the function, the compiler open-codes each deferred call, protected by (and clearing) each corresponding bit.
I agree with the other person who replied to you. I think you should call out the original commenter as well.

By only responding to one person it gives the impression that you think the first person did nothing wrong.
Doctors do not do a great job of balancing the behaviors of and interactions between prescriptions. You could say that they should do a better job--probably justifiably--but pharmacists do that for a living.
There are zillions of them, but it's normally some combination of:

1) Initially develop your pieces in the center rather than threaten or capture the opponent's pieces (this avoids most traps where opponents pull you out of position).

2) Castle by move 8-10

3) Don't leave your king where it can be checked

4) Don't hang pieces

Executing these, however, is the problem. Number 4, in particular, is just something that requires a lot of practice. Most games below 2000 rating seem to be lost because somebody hangs a piece.
> That's why I am under the impression that at the end the gold rush for the cloud, the result would be something like Firebase.

What's funny is Google Cloud is going in the opposite direction. They've pretty much destroyed the standard App Engine in the upgrade to Python 3. With the latest updates they've been moving towards becoming just another provider of dumb boxes where you do everything yourself. I'm expecting the standard App Engine to be deprecated at some point soon as they push everyone to the flexible environment (which is pretty much what you can get at any cloud provider).
