Maybe Dr Oneto can clarify but it does not appear he completed his surgery residency. This is not super material with respect to what he is doing now, but I believe this is why such unusual phrasing is used in the article. It is likely Dr Oneto still passed his medicine boards and is a licensed MD, he just is limited to taking care of post surgical patients (moonlighting) and is not able to perform surgeries in California.
Now, the quotes were annoying to read hahaha

Thank you for answering my questions and expanding more on the topic. You actually didn't have much convincing to do because it seemed so fundamentally true that it was hard to come up with an argument against it. I still believe analogies have more value than being mere approximations to an unimaginable world (numbers, states, etc). But like with all beliefs, I don't have any evidence to support my beliefs and rely on my intuition and experience.

Thank you for taking your time to answer.
Please for the love of Jobe stop giving people the advice to use a VPN without qualification

A VPN won't stop you from being tracked online, and using a non-self-hosted VPN is a very, very bad idea if "not being tracked online" is something you care about.
There is no optimal ratio per se. You just divide gain by risk and maximize that quantity. This is a scale invariant function, at least, with respect to its maximum.
This is a very software view of things. You’d be hard pressed to get by with whatever the FOSS equivalents of CAD/EDA software are.

I'm in the same boat. Maybe how my work has configured my laptop or something, some group policy?
The solution seems simple to me: take the drivers out of the car. Let them operate the cars remotely, then they can get rid of all the safety regulations. It both removes the risk for the driver and makes the sport more exciting to see at the same time.
As a side note, I wrote that post almost two months ago. Many things have changed since then. For example:

This is entirely pejorative.

First of all, the premisses is a contradiction in terms. If knowing with certainty is a matter of definition, then doubt about it is expressly excluded. You can go down the slippery slope and deny objectivity all together to arrive at the quote popularly attributed to Sokrates, and develop platonic ideals to finally hold it with Descartes idealizing yourself, cogito ergo sum.

Yet, we fundamentally can't know what others think and feel. If we can only take a best guess, and converse to peek and poke for improving the estimate, then that's what philosophy really means in the all daily sense, our "company philosophy" and such like. It generalizes well either way, whether anthropomorphizing the environment, or objectifying people, if we always can only project from the self onto others. And esteem is actually a good analogue to philos!

Still, a notable duality remains in my philosophy above. The point I'm trying to make is, I guess, that I will have to keep that formyself and leave yours to you, because ambivalence is a feature, and a bug.
This is very correct. And this is specific to professional use cases. Hobbyists can get by with FOSS tools.
One thing I never understood is why Vim bindings are a big gain when you have a mouse. I see a single edit, it takes me all of one second to click for a large jump, even less for cursor key combos in case of a small jump. For mass edits there is find/replace and find+multi cursor. 80% of my time in the editor I spend thinking about the code anyways - I have zero interest to optimize deciseconds of my time, or worse, optimize my perceived productivity vs. my actual productivity (e.g. forcing myself away from the mouse by ways of pattern matching that increases both mental overhead and time required).
Data sovereignty means my 5,000 seat company will stop using it. Confluence and Jira were already a hard sell due to licence fees. Now Atlassian wants us to put our trade secrets on AWS or something? Not happening.

Again, you may be right. However there are many claims that this capability existed in the 80s.

Suggest you research some of the satellites of the time, including ones which worked on film, and jettisoned rolls of it for terrestrial pickup.
You can definitely turn off the random reboot with policies, on Pro and up.
In the ancient greek case: acquittal.

In the New Orleans case, the outcome wasn't part of the story. Even if the judge felt witness had been credibly impeached, the manner of impeachment corroborates a solicitation charge, so I'd guess: conviction.
I am a huge proponent of libre software, but this is a very naïve view. It's impossible for the average Joe to find a place to work at that will use even 50% FOSS. It's impossible to buy a flagship phone on which you can install a FOSS OS without a ton of technical workarounds. Hell, even today, lots of basic customisation on mainstream GNU/Linux distros require editing files or using the CLI.

I'm sorry, but that's just not practical.

That was 1919: My dad was born in the 50's. His grandparents would have lived through it, though I'm not sure if one half was in the US at the time. I'd ask why, but he died some years back. I know that particular botulism outbreak still affects folks' attitudes towards pans.

I figure it was either stories from his parents - his father ran a grocery for some years. I know they had cans with missing labels around, but I don't think they had dents. Or it could be that someone (maybe him) got really sick. I just cannot remember - either one would make my father anxious, though. (He was cautious with car jacks, and always put a tire underneath. Something happened to someone he knew).

I do know that canned goods have gotten a bit safer, but not if the can has been dented or damaged.

Who's going to pay to train a Customer Service Rep, Admin Assistant, Sales Assistant or Warehouse Manager to do Python when there's Excel?

Get into the world of the Excel user. Some of us do learn coding. But generally speaking? No. If it happens, it's on our own.

And we can agree that spreadsheets have problems, and Excel users typically are not data people.

BUT!

When we agree on that, it becomes evident that a lot of suggested solutions are non-starters. Not all Excel users are in an enterprise that's throwing money around for training and dedicated software.

I'd like to see the Warehouse Manager who goes in Monday morning and says to the company vice-president, "I've been looking into this Python class ... "
Incredible resource. I feel like this is what proponents of cameras want, a medium for understanding the thought process and types of debate that goes into SCOTUS decisions. There were many interesting observations. Like how there were still interruptions (thus how hard that must be to do away with in oral debate), how there were no “umms or likes” I observed (makes sense, they would be intelligent speakers), and above all how humanizing the occasional joke and laughter were, for decisions that have serious impact.

Instead of only considering a consultant, the company should have a developer on staff to work on small tasks like this. The cost gradually decreases as they learn the business and don't need everything explained from scratch.
Do you reboot your machine regularly as a matter of course? I do not. My desktop machine is always up -- except when I am forced to reboot by Microsoft.

As far as I'm concerned, the problem is that the system is unable to update itself without rebooting.
QOE drove me nuts in a past life. M&A of small companies with crappy financial data. Biggest caveat is basically garbage in and garbage out. But often they already had the deal done and would just feel better if I told them the garbage didn’t stink.
VPNs help a lot in obscuring your physical location. Most people seem to forget that an IP is a coarse location.

A VPN plus regularly deleting most/all cookies actually prevents most of the common and pervasive tracking online.
C++ fills a niche and probably if you use it all on your own you don't even see the problems. But if you use it at scale with multiple developers you can see it's layers of leaky abstraction laid down since the 80s that can never really be cleaned because too much is built on this foundation.

This slightly over 100 page book on move semantics https://leanpub.com/cppmove shows some of the iceberg like complexities dotted all over the place. Some developers probably never use and have never even heard of move semantics.

I've been programming in C++ pretty much my entire career. Personal projects or small projects I'd use Ruby or Python first. I'd only ever use C++ (or a very specific subset of it) if I want to make something extremely performant.

C++ will eventually peak and die off but the timeframe is probably measured in decades and I'm sure there'll places where it holds on even then, like Fortran today. I certainly would't recommend it to a programmer starting out today, instead C or Rust would be better places to get an idea of system level programming.

Uighurs and the other 50+ minorities are an integral part of China, which regardless of ruling body, has 5,000yr history of integrating minorities within its civilization state, hence its enormous population.

If Uighurs were in fact being persecuted as the west claims, there would be mass protests, terrorism, and refugees fleeing across the border--something that would be impossible to conceal and highly publicized by the west.

The reality is Uighurs live all over China and are well integrated into society. In Xinjiang, many are afforded the opportunity to get additional education and job training to be productive citizens, as those with a bright future are less likely to be disenfranchised and resort to violence.

The US/western led smear campaign against China is nothing more than a poorly conceived containment strategy to demonize a country that has succeeded against all odds, while in the process, has made western govts look incompetent by comparison--despite their 'democracy and freedoms.'

China is being alienated and used as a scapegoat, largely to distract public sentiment in the west from the failings of their own govts. In the case of the US, China poses a threat to post WWII hegemony which is nothing more than a euphemism for maintaining white supremacy via the 5 Eyes Anglo alliance with CAN/UK/AUS/NZ.

The US led west has been indiscriminately bombing innocent civilians suspected of terrorism for last 20yrs, while renditioning known terrorists to offshore black sites where they can mete out any form of torture/punishment with impunity and zero consequences. Is it rational to believe theyre sincerely concerned about the well being of Uighurs...

> I still believe analogies have more value than being mere approximations to an unimaginable world

I didn't say this. Although my example is actually impossible to understand without an analogy, I am saying an analogy can help you understand something you currently don't understand.... it does not need to be impossible to understand without an analogy.

The quotes in my link are actually mostly things and concepts you completely understand. Nothing new is learned... the analogy is deception.
The future, imo, is sensor fusion. Cameras everywhere, in the sky and on the ground. Those cameras feed back to a large tracking system which is able to detect and track objects as they move between cameras.

This information can be crosschecked against cell phone location data and could flag anyone travelling without a phone, or with the wrong phone, for further scrutiny.

It sounds like paranoid delusions now, but I think it's what we're moving towards in 50 years or so after society has normalized mass surveillance.
I sometimes wonder if a rationale for the idea from The Republic of the guardians all sharing a common mess was an attempt to avoid politics via private dining.

Uninstalling should do the trick. ;-)
It already is behind the scenes. Do you really think people only discuss about it in public hearings.
Nice! and super performant
On the higher versions (Pro, Enterprise) you can turn off the automatic reboots relatively easily. Otherwise it might be that your usage pattern fits how it expects it - e.g. if you only use it during the workday, the "work time" settings match and you shut down and install pending updates each day it might never trigger for you.
That point applies to just one of the bases. It's basically for the extra information which you don't require, but still want.

If your business explicitly deals in user information:

> In order for processing to be lawful, personal data should be processed on the basis of the consent of the data subject concerned or some other legitimate basis

> ... these are the other legal bases:

> 1. Processing is necessary to satisfy a contract to which the data subject is a party.

In that business it's necessary to share the data which is being sold. It's part of the contract. As long as you comply with notification, listing 3rd parties, and other relevant points, you can require and sell that data.
As if the "enterprise" version is much better. It's not. I had an unscheduled reboot losing all my work just this week. Taking that control away was the single most awful change ever made to Windows. It made it undependable and unreliable for everyone.

This really does not say any thing outside you have 30 years+ in IT. What did Jira fix? I find what you said fully false given the context of the statements.

Why has this had adds playing every time I turn my radio on for the last 2 years as well..?
Why do people still use Microsoft(MS)?
Some companies force people to use MS but then the Linux desktop offerings have never been great.
Of course serious power users use Mac.
I only use Linux but have been forced to use MS with some development jobs.
Seeing from both sides I can say the MS based development companies were amateurish while the Unix/Linux/Mac were mostly professional.
On this note,seeing as cheap qwerty keyboards easily come in $5 and good in $20, is there a "piano" keyboard that only has keys laid out in piano fashion, rest left to drivers a small software that plays appropriate tones ....

I'd prefer something small- only two octaves and a plus/minus button to shift octaves.
And if you're an enterprise user, it's not your PC either. It belongs to your IT department. (Of course everyone knows this, but in the context of this conversation the relevant part is that it'll do updates when your IT people dictate, regardless of how convenient it is or isn't for you the user.)

I imagine there are good reasons in force to update, like security patches. But I'd be lying if I didn't find it frustrating that my work laptop needs to update at what always feels like an inopportune time.

In general, when I am prompted about a software update I default to selecting "not now" (I've been refusing Google Photos' nagging for what feels like forever now).
What does it say about our industry that users have developed an automatic aversion to updates? Shouldn't updates be something exciting? Interesting? Somewhere along the line we burned our relationship with users and lost their trust.
One of the things I miss most were the old Yahoo directories and Download.com. I'd go in there digging for a game and the results weren't sorted by 'relevance', so it would range from trash to some weird underdog game nobody ever heard about.

These days, search results are all weighted, especially on app stores, so you'd end up with everyone playing Among Us and never finding games like Predynastic Egypt or King of Dragon Pass.
I just set up pihole recently and it blows my mind how almost 15% of requests are trackers/garbage. I highly recommend setting one up and donating to them if possible.

Serving as an election officer, my mind is blown by these ID claims:

- We do shag-all else in life without showing identification. Try to see a dentist without photo ID and proof of insurance.

- State issued ID with a bar code ensures rapid check-in to participate, minimizing lines, while maximizing valid voter participation.

- The nicest thing I have to say about the opposing arguments is they are far from compelling.

Database maintenance is hard. It is my hope that the results of the election next month are solid enough that the U.S. has a mandate to shore up the whole creaky mess and ensure every legal voter is treated equally, as they should be.
