I think the most tragic thing of all is that many doctors find it difficult to be the kind of doctor you would not be disappointed by. People on both sides of the exam table are not thrilled with the current system.

I've watched grown, experienced doctors break down and cry over what they have seen, the expectations and pressures placed on them, the type of things they've had to tell people, mistakes they've made, etc. It's not pretty.

They're not building apps for a living while working from home, they're trying to fix ill people within the constraints of human behavior and mother nature, and that is a rough job.

Many get paid a lot, many don't, but for people who went into it with the desire to help people you can't just buy off the dying kids and the lifelong smokers who killed themselves one cigarette at a time for 40-years, and the diabetic feet, and sexual assaults, and the dead bodies harvested of organs looking up at you after the surgeons have left the room, the frequent flyers, the smell of bloody feces, the smell of infection, everything else that can possible go wrong with a human being.

Not to mention the over a decade of school, and hundreds and hundreds of hours of documenting for insurance, and covering your ass for each time you get dragged into court to testify over what at any other job would be a benign clerical error.
A Students' Guide to Raft
What do you think would be the solution for, for example, CS teachers being incredibly unqualified?

I'm asking because based on my country, I think there literally is no solution and we just have to live with the fact that CS education cannot be good (it might also happen to some other fields over time).

Paying CS teachers more than PE or English teachers is not politically viable as teachers and their unions wouldn't accept it, and paying all teachers a salary based on the market value of the most in-demand field is too expensive, bound to be unacceptable to taxpayers (who are already jealous of the incredible benefits and job security teachers have), and creates unacceptable incentives in education choices (ie even more people will try to become English teachers because the demand is the same, but the salaries are increased, so the oversupply of labor in those fields would increase even further, and the labor supply in in-demand fields would actually go down, because even though they also now get paid more for teaching positions, their relative attractiveness actually went down).

So is it even possible to solve this problem?
I had not realized that was going on, but it makes a lot of sense now you mention it.
I've lost count of how many "no-code" movements we've had since computers were invented.

The "no-code" environments from yesteryear were really, really good, and motivated "non-coders" accomplished amazing things with them. Hypercard, for example.

But even with Hypercard, at some point you needed to write code if you wanted to go beyond the happy path envisioned by the tool developer. And I imagine the new "no-code" tools will have similar limitations. And then when the "no-code coders" get bored of playing with those toys, will hand it off to the programmers to extend and maintain.
Yeah what OP wrote is complete nonsense. Sad that this stuff bubbles to the front of HN and then gets quoted endlessly...

> I think at-will employment in the US is key to their startup ecosystem. It makes their market very "liquid", as you can hire fast and fire fast.

Is that really the case? I would have naively assumed the typical (median) startup path is something like hire, hire, hire, go-bankrupt? And the successful ones more like hire, hire, hire, hire, hire, go-public?

Easy firing doesn't seem relevant to either of those?
I find Lemire’s original blog post way more edifying than this piece. It also makes clear that his contribution is just in the reduction part (and after reading his blog I applied it to my simulation code and got a nice speed-up).

I understand why you say this, and I used to think that way myself and it makes rational sense when you compare the way government runs when you look at how you most probably work in an efficient team, getting things done etc (or maybe not!) .

But..

This seems too simplistic a rule to apply to large and complicated projects which likely are the case with creating and maintaining infrastructure.

If private investment can't calculate expected return they don't do it and this often is the case with complicated projects there is often high risk involved and no easily attainable reward (from a financial perspective).

This is why public / government undertakes these projects because they know what the expected benefit is to society and are not driven by ROI in the same way as private enterprise.

Your model needs to take this into account in order to be more persuasive.
I love the idea. I have a ton of questions. How would you prevent someone from sharing explicit, harmful or illegal content? Or is this an “anything goes” sort of platform? Is there chat functionality with room participants?

Also I wonder if a similar sort of platform exists for Live events/Sports? Sort of like watching a live sporting event (NBA, champions league) with friends in a chat room?
Sussman and Abelson got tired of that decline, calling it "programming by poking", and quit teaching SICP.

I call it glue and duct tape. Everything is integration these days. Mixed blessing of that resusability we were promised and the poking that goes with it.

> Why am I not also entitled to a cut of their successes beyond the rental contract?

Leave it to the landlord to miss whom property appreciation comes from. It ain’t you! It’s the people living there that make your property more valuable over time. If your renters do well your property value rises.

I don’t know. I mean you might be coming from a place culturally that simply diminishes how you benefit from the system. It’s a narrow minded, ill conceived, jingoist, reductionist culture that attributes all personal good to multi-generational hard work and independence or whatever and belittles the losers for being stupid or lazy or having inadequate families or whatever. But a professional landlord must certainly understand the basic economics of why their renters doing well is also good for them. It boggles the mind to make an error like that, which is why I’m suspecting it would take years of conditioning to be skeptical of your customer’s success.
That’s kind of the running joke in the world of F1 fans, you have Mercedes, Red Bull, and I guess now Renault (because Ferrari is doing really bad this season) in F1, everyone else is F1.5.

The problem is there’s only so many manufacturers that have the desire to spend that much money. Especially on what is obviously dead-end technology wise, so it’s nothing more than a marketing spend that requires them to actually have a chance at winning to be worth it.

Honestly I’d buy the rumors that Mercedes was debating pulling out of F1 if the new cost caps didn’t mean the team will run at a profit instead of a ~$30m expense after sponsorships and prize money are taken into account. Hell, they just won the Formula E championship the first year they were a manufacturer branded team, and they know electric vehicles are the way forward.

From a great coffee table book, "100 Facts About Pandas", by David O'Doherty and Claudia O'Doherty (no relation).

https://www.amazon.com/Facts-About-Pandas-David-ODoherty/dp/...

One of my other favorite "facts" in there is that if a panda gets struck by lightning, its black parts turn white and its white parts turn black. It is called a "negative panda". If it gets struck by lightning once more, it reverts to its natural coloring and it is called a "double-negative panda", or just a "panda".
Maybe it's regional? I've known, used and heard 'murder of crows' for as long as I can remember. Admittedly it's not every day that I have conversations about crows, but the term has never seemed novel to me and I've never had somebody explain it to me as trivia.
There is such an anti individualism these days that I find bonkers. It's as if people crave collectivism.

There have been quite obviously individually remarkable people that stand head and shoulders above everyone else, and don't think that's changed.

Nikola Tesla, Carl Friedrich Gauss, Isaac Newton, and many more.

Feats of greatness may come from collaborating but there are often great leaders and minds at the centre of it.
As an Asian who has been to the USA, I find this to be highly unlikely, especially considering that Asians (East Asians, not Indians) are not even Caucasians. Whiteshift happened because all those nations (Germans, Irish, etc.) are of Caucasian European stock. Maybe it could work with Hispanics, but even that is a stretch. Many of us don't want to admit this, but our brains are wired to immediately understand how much genetic history we share with another person just by looking at them.
I used to work with a guy from East Germany who really understood math. It was amazing how he often could reduce problems I would solve with enormous amounts of code and computing power with a few simple equations. It's a lot of work to get to that level of math understanding but it's definitely a hidden superpower.
I like the F-16 logo on the homepage. Sleek minimal airplane to represent fast with a nice outline.
That article was written in 2010, but I can't help agreeing with its conclusion:

"But vanity waist sizing is so entrenched, it couldn't possibly be changed overnight, at least not without a government mandate. The only solution seems to be a gradual, year-by-year shaving of quarter-inch by quarter-inch until, in 2021, men's pants finally correspond with the label numbers — conveniently just in time for the New World Order's switch to mandatory full jumpsuits."

That sounds terrible, but it could still be an improvement over 2020.
How?

Not trying to be asinine, but it's not actually a simple/easy problem to solve. Many have tried.

Do you have a reference for actual detected spies at Google? Of course it would be valuable to have them there. Google has lots of systems to keep track of what information you access thought, from when I was there. IE if you say want to look at PII like real user names for some debugging reason, you had to go through a portal that was along the lines of declaring: "I need to access this internal system that has PII, here is my authenticated request with my name on it". And when I was there, they would follow up and ask me about it. This was on a database product.

On the other hand, there were multiple stories about the guy from Saudi Arabia who was at twitter and I think he got away back to S.A.

ReactOS got too ambitious IMO. If they had stopped chasing versions at say XP/2003 then it may have matured more quickly. That said they are getting closer to useable with every release. Like FreeDOS before it I suspect it will fill a niche where Microsoft binaries are too expensive yet compatibility is important.
Well, since regulations are created by the executive branch and not Congress, which makes law and to which the President can't dictate rules, the proposed rule is meaningless, so enforcing it is a non-issue.

Also, “a regulation” is not a particularly useful unit of size.

Its too bad this never got more traction, I always thought the ability to define roles was an incredibly smart and useful feature. Defining 'authorizer' and 'filter' allows you to stack all sorts of independent apps - responder provides data, filter does rendering, authorizer is SSO, for example.

This seems like saving Android's brand by Google. I don't know about anyone else, but the on-by-default face retouch on my old samsung phone looks horrible. It makes my face look like melted plastic and makes the lens extremely blurry. A Samsung camera could have a million megapixels or whatever and it would still look like crap because of the filter, and it makes it seem like all android phones have garbage front cameras.
I don’t really understand this. Who is licensing rules for car races?
In your mind, how many years is a few years? I watch Formula E, but it's hard to imagine it becoming the pinnacle of motorsport anytime soon.

Formula E's definitely made progress: e.g. they no longer have to run two separate cars just to finish the race, and they are decently quick. But they're still pretty far away in other aspects: 45 minute race, on temporary circuits purposefully designed with many tight turns to allow for braking regen. Battery technology has to improve quite a bit if you want to see electric cars turning laps at Spa at standard race distances.

I wouldn’t call him impure, merely a human who was a product his times with the intellect and courage to question.

The whole point of this thread is that regulation doesn’t equate to any meaningful definition of “communism”. Property has scope attached to it, and whatever right exists isn’t supreme over other natural rights, and just like say, speech, can be regulated.

Property's nature is shaped by society and law. My clothes and real property belong to me. But I do not own my children, and cannot buy the sky. I cannot own title to contraband. Also, The commons exist and must be protected against encroachment.

Also don’t forget that natural rights are not worth anything if I can acquire you as property. And the conditions that allow one human to own another are set by society.
'Hernandez said he believes the adoption of the minimum wage initiative in Geneva was "necessary," as unemployment represents an existential threat for so many low income workers in the city. "It will boil down to not having enough to eat," he said.'

Raising the minimum wage creates more unemployment. If someone is willing to pay me x$ an hour and I am willing to work for that amount, why should the government forbid our voluntary exchange?
> Aren’t there rules imposed in F1 to keep the technology relevant to industry?

Not in the slightest. Unless things like 12,000 rpm engines with exotic valvetrain materials, while banning driver assists or dynamic suspension which has not been uncommon for decades counts as industry relevant.
DRS is a hack that is necessary because of the current downforce-heavy aero designs of cars (which is why current F1 cars can still break lap records even though they are slower in many straights than their older siblings). Here’s hoping the 2022 technical regs remove the need for DRS, because it’s a hard-to-balance bandaid for the dirty air problem.
> This is all in the name of reducing expenses of course, but it has the opposite effect.

You might not like it, but it certainly does reduce expenses.
There was a lot of crazy development in the 80s and early 90s with carbon fibre, aerodynamics, turbos, automatic gearboxes and active suspension. I think from mid 90s on a lot of innovation got killed by regulation.
It seems to be? I get a lot of recommendations I’ve never seen before. I think if you rate a lot of non mainstream stuff it’ll pair you with people who do the same and voila - new non mainstream stuff!

On occasion I have argued that dolphins are fish, despite being air breathing mammals, using an argument quite similar to this. The use of the word 'fish' to describe animals that live in the water predates biologists deciding they'd redefine the term unilaterally for the rest of society. The novel Moby Dick explains in detail the difference between whales and true fish, but then calls whales 'fish' in the rest of the book anyway.

If this line of argument doesn't work, I point out that in a phylogenetic/cladistic nomenclature, all tetrapods are fish and dolphins are tetrapods, therefore dolphins are fish (and so are we.) Of course in the traditional nomenclature 'fish' is a paraphyletic group that specifically excludes tetrapods.
