If you've used helm for more than one day you'd know about the helm.sh/resource-policy: keep,

Which makes your first big "accidentally deleted" concern pretty near moot, so long as it's your ci/CD tools with permissions & they are using helm. So long as random cluster users aren't futzing around randomly poking at & deleting things.

Yes, you have to go way further & prevent your idiot users from being dumb, if you are giving them cluster role permissions. But again, have you considered not doing that?

Abandoned resources is no less of an issue. If there are external resources that don't have state (such as your Load balancer examp, the good news is you can delete them all & let the resource controllers recreate the real ones.

In general I feel like you are letting the 1% of concerns dominate & dissuade you, & that most people can make it very far with nothing extra.
Despite the au courant reference to the global pandemic, this seems very familiar (particularly the bits about Wintour, Gladwell, & Ramsay), but I can't recall where I read it (sometime 5-10 years ago, maybe), and a cursory google search doesn't pull up anything.

Still, the deja vu was pretty darn strong. Perhaps the writer had a blog that has since been deleted, and she recycled an old post.
The bar would have to be incredibly low for the US to retaliate against Australia over this specifically, seeing as Australia is an incredibly strategic pattern to the US in the Asia pacific region, especially with China being a far greater existential threat to the US economy verses Facebook leaving the Australian market.

Edit: Keep in mind we're talking hypotheticals, Facebook only said it would stop sharing news articles.

The most extreme thing that will end up happening will be a US diplomat reaching out to Australia on behalf of Facebook.

Yeah, liquid nitrogen is not that expensive despite how exotic it sounds.

But it really does need to be handled appropriately. For example, while you can put it in a simple thermos flask you shouldn't be in small enclosed spaces with it. IE elevator/car.

The liquid expands to quite a lot of gas and might force out all the standard air taking the oxygen with it.

But mainly it is about 'freeze burns'.

My wife(science lab manager) cringes at the lack of safety glasses and gloves at the ice cream shop.

They plonk ingredients into an open top mixer/blender and then pour the liquid nitrogen in while it is running!

Edit: tweaked wording.
It's moving the goal posts and changing the point of the discussion. We can equally well say that that "Rust formally verifies your safe functions", and that this reduces how much code review is required... it's a matter of degree and specifics.

Focusing on pointer manipulations is also misleading: it's entirely true that it's dangerous, but most Rust code does not need to do any sort of raw pointer manipulation. For instance, there's extensive work on operating systems and other low level code that involves both inherent unsafety due to hardware specifics (that is, ATS almost certainly does not model it natively) and safe Rust wrappers (i.e. proofs of safety) for the unsafety at a surprisingly low level:

- a recent series: https://www.ecorax.net/as-above-so-below-1/ https://www.ecorax.net/as-above-so-below-2/

- a long-standing operating system: https://os.phil-opp.com/

Finally, if you are happy to cherry-pick specific examples, https://bluishcoder.co.nz/2017/02/22/borrowing-internal-poin... discusses a case where Rust is able to prove more things safe than ATS 2 (at the time of writing).

Plus... this is still ignoring all of the other factors why popularity and momentum are useful reasons to choose a language.

Unless the OP changed his comment, this is an overreaction to a harmless, hypothetical, technical question. I've seen a lot of annoying Rust evangelism, but this ain't it.

BTW, I'm not a Rust dev, and it would appear the OP isn't a Rust developer either. They don't even seem aware of Redox. Seems odd to accuse them of "Rust evangelism".
Canvas is free software, Instructure's main value add is a 24/7 support desk, operational expertise (not needed for small scale users) and custom software development.

Compared to Pearson's crummy web learning platform and the mess of perl that constituted my college's homegrown infrastructure, Canvas was the bright spot where when things went wrong you could get ahold of someone technically competent and helpful at 11pm the night before your test on Saturday.

It's actually getting worse and worse. The Age and the Herald, having been sold to Nine are much lower quality than they once were. The Government is putting more and more pressure on the ABC, with constant (effective) funding cuts, and both direct editorial interference or indirect (i.e. threatening more funding cuts because of journalists publishing articles they don't like). With the ABC, this has been going on for years - in 2013, they withheld a detailed analysis of the flaws of the Liberal's NBN plan (which has been proven accurate) by Nick Ross before the election because of pushback from "the Turnbull camp", and then eventually he was made redundant because of pressure from the Government. Last year, emails were leaked of the chairman saying they needed to "get rid of Emma Alberici and Andrew Probyn because the Government hates them and they put our funding at risk" - for Alberici because she wrote some articles that got a lot of traction while the Government was trying to push big company tax cuts, pointing out that tax cuts haven't historically correlated with increased economic growth or employment growth (this is true). Last month, Emma Alberici was made redundant...
They date back much further. McCarthy in the 1960s, and over a half dozen groups by 1970, had developed computer assisted proof tools that were proving theorems.

The 4 color theorem in 1976 was just a very famous example.

I think Turing (30s? 40s?) and later von Neumann (50s) also did some computer assisted theorem proving, but I’d have to dig for precise references.
This is also an amazing space for shadow IT and customisations. Probably the best ROI software I wrote were AutoIT scripts for medical software. Plug them into StreamDeck and they're saving amazing amount of time. On a single case it's just a few tens of seconds, but it really adds up over time. (Think one button specialist referral which clicks through / fills out 4 windows)

Then there's mass-edit scripting. Have you ever told someone that you updated 200 records and added $4k income, while saving 4h of manual error-prone clicking?

> “Market rules are not written in stone,” said Robert Colby of Robert W. Colby Asset Management, which has $20 million in assets under management. “Sometimes there’s just no logic to market behavior.”

No logic?? The fed has been spending like its no tomorrow and rates are effectively at zero. Investors have correctly realized there's a large backstop to how much the market can fall. If we see another crash, I wouldn't even be surprised if the Fed starts buying stock.

Until the pandemic has passed, rates will stay at zero and the fed will keep buying back bonds. This might increase real inflation (I kind of doubt it, inflation seems to stay low no matter what the Fed does), but it definitely has/will lead to asset inflation.

Even so, I think investors are still worried about short-term crashes that could easily evaporate 10-20% of the recent gains. This is why everyone has been piling into tech stocks, as they represent a "safe" sector in which the downside risk is limited by strong revenue and a great strategic position during the pandemic.
As an EHR developer, this is the most correct comment I've read on the internet, maybe ever.
The legislation explicitly prevents platforms from deindexing/downranking news sites that participate in the code in favour of other sites that do not.

Which places Google in a more difficult position, because if a user searches for some news, Google is essentially forced to return results from a participating news organisation, or not show any relevant news results at all.

While Facebook can just prevent users from sharing any news links, Google can't exactly stop users from searching for news.
Are you referring to court appointed public defenders? Oh, they don't work to find a defense for the defendant. They work to ensure the public's interests are defended. We don't want the state to get sloppy. Process and procedure needs to be followed and objections made to protect the public's interest in a fair trial.
Some better organization to the information would be nice though.

Edit: Not a doctor/in health care. Just basing this on the link above.
> and you can't access those records remote due to HIPAA.

The person who told you that is misinformed. I have personally worked on products that allow physicians and staff to access patient records remotely in a safe and fully HIPAA compliant manner. It's incredibly common.
Mispronunciation notwithstanding, that was fast and spot on. Impressive.
Billing and marketing is likely the reason. There is no one responding to RFPs advocating for GNU Health, and it likely is not up to scratch for medical billing/automated overbilling of insurance providers.

EHRs in the USA, Germany and other countries with numerous health insurance providers are primarily there to ensure every service and tools used is billed fully (or overbilled).

I'm an MD/Dev at one of the only major academic centers in US that still maintains a home-built EHR. Atul Gawande is definitely a giant in healthcare process improvement and a great writer. Many of us were eagerly anticipating what he would do with the Amazon/JP Morgan/Berkshire Hathaway healthcare initiative and disappointed when he stepped down (https://www.geekwire.com/2020/atul-gawande-steps-ceo-haven-h...).

Unfortunately, there are too few of us that understand both the challenges of caring for patients and the barriers of writing (and maintaining!) good software. Our EHR is far from perfect, but the basic HTML interface has aged remarkably well into the era of smartphones. Our approach is to extend functionality of our EHR with APIs and an ecosystem of add-ons. Always looking for people with a passion for healthcare and flexible skills. Mumps/Cache, API design, JS (vanilla, JQuery, React), mobile (Swift, Java, React Native, Kony), and ML (computer vision and NLP).
Medical software is terrible, because healthcare is very expensive, and this is the only effective cost control.

Since the payers (insurance companies and the government) want to avoid seen making medical decisions, their only way to bring the cost down is to slow down the providers.

Therefore, they do not allow automation in the EMR/Health software. This is not a joke: for appropriate billing, the physician has to go through an elaborate dance of clicks, and write and rewrite fields with the same content, personally. In other words, if it was automated, or if the office staff filled those out, then the billing would be much lower.

It's not true software vendors would not be able to automate a lot of this, but they just can't, because the physicians are required to work in a manual way for proper reimbursement.

It's a strange world, where a doctor who is a faster typist makes more money...

It's very sad, but unfortunately it's working, at the cost of driving physicians to the edge of insanity.
I get lots of news from Facebook. My friends who I trust post articles that they've read. It's a perfectly fine source of news if your friends are the kind of people who actually think critically and read the articles.

If the news you get from Facebook is suspect, it's your friends that are the problem, not Facebook.

The legions of open source advocates are necessarily socialists (at least with respect to information sharing in general and software specifically).

Socialism is central to modern software development. If it was not then there would be no "free software foundation", "no open source", no plethora of "copy-left" licencing. I don't say this as if it is a bad thing. Clearly we are centuries of person years ahead software wise as a result of this socialism.

This individual behavior stands in stark contrast to the behavior of most tech companies as a whole that are clearly not "leftist". There is nothing leftist about NDA agreements, confiscation of IP and anti-poaching agreements to control wages. There is nothing leftist about dark ui patterns, shifting terms of service and harvesting of personal information and micro-transactions.

Without reading the legislation in detail, I have to say that I'm inclined to just take the side of whoever News Corp is upset at.
TheAge has gone to sh*t. It’s basically a collection of government press releases now. I’d been noticing just though reading it, and then their own journalists made the same point. It had become pretty blatant.

This is exactly what Facebook are doing (as evidenced by Facebook stating they'll block this feature for Australian users if the proposed law goes ahead). A third party generates the content then Facebook's user base shares it within their network. Any advertising revenue generated in the meantime is pocketed solely by Facebook.

My point still stands. The state of online advertising as of 2020 is such that there are essentially two vast monopolies (Facebook and Google) and you can't advertise anything online without going through one of their systems. In addition, they generate essentially no valuable content themselves (I emphasis content here, I'm not suggesting they provide no value whatsoever).

For a bit of context here, the Australian Broadcast Corporation (ABC) is arguably Australia's most respected media organisation but as it's publicly funded it generates no advertising revenue itself directly and takes no donations. It also has been hit hard by austerity from this same right wing government in recent years.

To suggest we do nothing and continue to let any revenue generated be vacuumed up by the big tech giants is unacceptable.
I'm feeling hard pressed to find a better word than extortion to describe Apple's behaviour here. Sucks you have to deal with that.
Google absolutely can stop users from searching for News, by removing all News tabs, News boxes, and News News-specific metadata uses (such as current events timeliness) in search results at Google.com.au. They can then legitimately claim that they are no longer indexing news, only websites in general, and if site operators don’t wish to be indexed they can follow the standard practices for exclusion.

Whether they (Google) will do so or not is a timely question to consider.
They did edit it, yes. The part starting with “Edit:” said something different before.
Sorry, I worded that poorly. I meant the med students doing the grunt work.

Medical professionals in this thread, I encourage you to reach out to the people at your organization making the decisions for your EMR. Escalate, or the development company will never hear about the issues that are hurting you daily.

I'm a developer at one of these companies, and we truly do want to make your experience better. If there's a workflow that you do for every patient that takes 3 clicks instead of 1, escalate. There's a good chance there's build that could help you out. If there's not, escalate anyways. Ask your IT department to contact the development company's staff. We want to hear any and all feedback about specific workflows that are a struggle.
Come on, you don't have to be in one of the "few dense cities" to find an Indian, Asian, Latin, etc. grocery.

If I ommited that first part of the sentence the points made afterwards would remain the same. I did so to indicate that it's not the first time the Rust community suggests that something should be (re-)written in Rust for memory-safety reasons, in a project that has a well-established C-codebase. I'd argue it's the same "Just install Linux" situation that you mention, and that "Linux" may not be the answer.
> wrapping/boxing/unboxing, as they have exactly the same native data representation

Rust's Box<T> and Option<Box<T>> have the same representation as a C pointer to the same type, so this is true of Rust too.

You do have to wrap the type in source code to indicate what the ownership guarantees/contracts are. (Is this not also true of ATS? That is, if ATS code calls a C function that returns a pointer, how do you know how long that pointer is valid for and whether you're expected to free it?) But there is no runtime overhead/conversion.

> which undermines the initial safety argument

No, adding unsafe Rust does not undermine the safety argument (at least, no more than having any C somewhere in your address space does). See my reply in the comment section of TFA: https://lwn.net/Articles/830158/

(It's unfortunate that the Rust language used the "unsafe" keyword to mark blocks where you can access raw pointers, because it causes people to think that using such code is unsafe. Something like "manually_verified_safe" would have been better - the whole point of putting an "unsafe" block on a safe function is to write code that is safe to use that cannot benefit from the Rust compiler's checks. But at the boundary with C, it is impossible to have automated checks, because the relevant typing/safety information doesn't exist in C in the first place. It's no different from ATS code using $UN where you've manually verified that you're using a C function or C-created data in the way it's intended to be used.)
I now keep a copy of the photos of my retina on a USB stick. It never fails - either I move and get a new ophthalmologist or they change systems and my old photos are lost/inaccessible. Having a history can be a big help to them in tracking my age-related vision issues, and so far every system is able to export a PNG/TIFF/JPG image.

Microsoft Health Vault was supposed to do something like this. The promotional materials said it was going to be a system that you and your medical professional could securely access, and be a central repository of your medical records, so you wouldn't have EMR vendor lock-in. It did OK for tracking immunizations (but I have a yellow WHO booklet for that..)
Show HN: Zip – Make “staying informed” effortless, reliable, and fun
I made Zip to take the amorphous and cloudy concept of "staying informed" (especially during these last few months of rapid, world-changing developments) and turning it into an effortless, clearly defined action: getting exactly what's important from the news cycles and trending stories on any subject you could want or imagine - no more, no less.

That means the user gets a simple interface, simple customizations, and the convenience of automatic, curated summaries sent straight to their phone. All while Zip does the heavy lifting behind the scenes of discovering, organizing, and then delivering a concise update each day.
