> into a believer in single payer healthcare.

That isn't the part of the market which is broken though. The insurance companies want their vig, and they have no objection to cost increases because then they get the same percentage of a larger pot, but they're not actually where most of the money goes.

It's really going to drug companies and medical devices companies and doctors and hospitals. Which all still exist even with single payer, and not only that but then have even less price sensitive customers (more unnecessary tests/treatments/procedures) and have a greater opportunity to have their lobbyists turn open the money spigot, because now it's tax dollars -- or government debt -- instead of insurance premiums that customers would balk at and switch to a less expensive plan when the price exceeds a given threshold.

So you still need the very things they're lobbying against. You need something to make patients price sensitive enough to refuse over-treatment. You need some kind of price setting mechanism that works better than giving the most money to the company with the best lobbyists. Single payer doesn't get you that.

This article may change your mind [1].

It's an NPR interview with Cigna's former head of corporate comms, an executive in charge of pushing lies about socialized medicine. He has since come to terms with what he'd done and is working to undo the harm he has caused to the American people.

"Canada has done a better job [re: COVID], I think, because of having the kind of health care system you have in making sure that everyone who needs to be treated is treated. And so that was what prompted that. And I felt that to provide some context, I needed to describe what I used to do for a living to try to scare people away from the Canadian health care system because insurance companies fear that. They know that if the U.S. moves to a system like that, it would certainly put a real crimp in their profits."

"Our industry PR and lobbying group, AHIP, supplied my colleagues and me with cherry-picked data and anecdotes to make people think Canadians wait endlessly for their care. It's a lie. And I'll always regret the disservice I did to folks on both sides of the border."

> Why do you think there are so many posts about people wanting to leave California? Do you think it's really all about taxes? It's not.

From your initial post, I just thought it was about over-development. I didn't expect to be about demographics and ethnicity, specifically maintaining your idea of CA's racial "purity". Consequently, I was very confused when you asked me to leave CA.

> The prevailing rhetoric of California being "bad" is mostly political and has racist anti-liberal roots. By shutting down counter views you're allowing those racist viewpoints to prosper

Let me get this straight, by calling you out on your racist viewpoints, I am allowing racist viewpoints to fester? That totally makes sense.

Who cares if other racist viewpoints have white, conservative roots? Racism is bad, period, regardless of its origins, the ideology of the people holding those ideas, and whether or not it's systemic. As shown by your own comments, conservatives do not have a monopoly on racism either.

> And by the way, none of your rhetoric counters what is historical fact.

That's great counter-argument with no details or facts, other than the slivers you've previously provided that I've quickly shut down. I guess your newest comment isn't rhetoric either?

> The plurality of California are not Hispanic by pure accident.

Yes, CA promotes diversity, yet you lament not having a more homogeneous population. The only difference between your views and "America First" proponents' view is the ethnicity being supported.

> Lastly, it should be possible to have a rational discussion about demographics on this site without people over reacting and name calling.

Forgive me for pointing out thinly veiled racist comments on HN. It's a natural conclusion to assume that racists comments are made by a racist. I am not over reacting. I initially assumed good faith and gave you the benefit of the doubt for too long. You're just downplaying your BS.

Let's revisit your BS before you delete it:

"_You_ go to Idaho and Wyoming.

California is our state."

So apparently according to your view point, California is only for "Californios", Hispanics who originated from Mexico?

"My qualms are more with the demographic changes these massive migrations brought.

Just very greedy overly ambitious and pretentious people.

To me they make terrible neighbors and have zero regard for the land, nature or the people here.

Some I assume are good people but I haven't met any."

I don't even have to comment on this one. It speaks for itself, especially the last line. Since you're really into semantics, let's define racist:

racist - a person who is prejudiced against or antagonistic toward people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group with the belief that groups of humans possess different behavioral traits corresponding to physical appearance

> How is running AMA polluting this place?

Because I have no interest in reading them, so from my point of view they would be polluting the newsfeed and making it more difficult to find interesting articles.

> Are you sure that all the AMA buried instead of not just happening?

If they are getting buried then that would kind of prove my point that readers of HN don't want to see them here.

> I don't get your hostility toward AMA.

I'm not hostile, I just have no personal interest in them. As I said, Reddit is the perfect place for them because those who want to read them can go the AMA sub Reddit and read them and those who don't can ignore them. Then everyone is happy.

TBH I don't really understand why you would want them on HN. Surely it's better for those who like them for them to be on a sub Reddit. That way, when you fancy reading an AMA you can just go to the sub Reddit and browse AMA's to your hearts content.
There was 10+ years of research prior, but much of that research was academic. Phased studies must be conducted regardless of whether manufacture is public or private. There does not appear to be any need for private profit, we are sufficiently motivated to research this stuff out of a desire for self-preservation.

I'll admit that profit seeking would work better* in a society that doesn't have a strong state or other coordinating body, but given that one exists to counterpose our existing system is not reasonable.

EDIT: * In the sense that products might be produced at all. Without a strong regulatory body, the market would be flooded with snake oil medicine and the average consumer would not be able to make heads or tails of things. This is because it's much cheaper to make a fake medicine than a real one, which is what profit optimizes for: the cheapest solution with the highest payoff for the seller regardless of costs not borne by the seller (such as death and destruction writ large).

Small nit: The term is "toeing the line" as in you keep your toes on the party line and no further. Also, I concur with your point.
explaining more does not necessarily mean better. I can explain all of the motions of all of the celestial bodies (better even than newton-einstein gravity can!) using epicycles, but that's trivial because really epicycles are just fourier transforms under another name and all continuous-valued functions have well-defined fourier transforms.

1 - give me a prediction, not just an explanation. Can you take epicycles and project the motions of any given body better than newton? No.

2 - Give me a multimodal observation. Imagine the world before we unified terrestrial gravity with heavenly motion - these were two separate phenomena. Could epicycles explain things outside of the category which it is designed to explain (heavenly motion)? No. Newton's theory also explains why if you throw a book across the room it will fall to earth, which epicycles do not.
Basically, if your competition is targeting, you are not, then it is very big difference.

I've been on the receiving end of a $15K air ambulance bill (thankfully covered by insurance) as well as the out of network specialist at an in-network hospital. The latter is particularly galling. What are you supposed to do, interrogate every person that comes in the room

That could present a rather interesting legal challenge...

Say you state "I can only allow care from in-network physicians/personnel" - will they take that as you outright refusing care if they're not in-network?

And if they decide they're not going to care for you because of this, and you end up dying, what would be the recourse? Did the personnel (esp. doctors) still have a duty to care for you? Or else on what exact basis would they conclude you refused care and let you die?
Interestingly the sandboxed web + web browser provided and provides much more trust and security than apps/binaries.

The web browser sandbox was created to solve lots of problems with security of executables, it didn't solve all of them but it did make content by third parties more secure.

Granted the web probably tracks you as much as mobile, but it will need permission to use your camera/mic/etc and you can more easily see what is being tracked, at least the scripts and states.

All Apple is doing it creating a similar security sandbox to the web and they should.

> Feminists I know are selling themselves because they like sex,

Sex work is the only job where you believe the advertising. "I'm selling a little bit of sex because I have such a high sex drive" or "I love sex and I need to fund my way through college" -- they need to say this because most of their punters do not want to buy sex from people who are poor and desperate for money.

>my school was more expensive (and thus prestigious) than most.

Outside of the top 20 schools or so, I would not see the point of paying any extra for a private school, as the school's are willing to accept mostly anyone who can get a loan, which is basically everyone. The private schools that are prestigious (i.e. highly selective) have substantial aid making them very cheap for families who earn under a certain amount.
This looks like something I've been hoping for ever since Dan hinted at it on twitter, but I'm kinda worried when it's going to become generally available.

My worry is mostly due to suspense for data fetching (which I really care about) and concurrent mode (which I care less about but which is still nice) releases, which were announced in late 2018 and promised by mid 2019, but then delayed at least twice since then.

Because Ruby uses fairly deep metaprogramming much more, idiomatically, than does Python, while “dir() is more used in interactive applications” may be true, that does not imply that “#methods is more used in interactive applications”. And, anyhow, an interactive application that wants the information it asks for will quite often wan’t to impose an organization other than alphabetic ordering.
>fuddle and muck

swap(f, m)
All good points. I remain skeptical that loans are what drove prices up. Declining public funding has also played a role. Sending money directly to public colleges rather than sending that money through a twisted loan system makes more sense to me. And the state / regional colleges are cheaper to operate.

I'm paying tuition to two of those schools right now for my kids -- a state "flagship" university, and a regional campus of the state university system.

There are certainly tiers of private colleges, and I wouldn't want to mess with religious schools. I'm mainly thinking of letting maybe the top 20 private colleges in the country become the destination for the top 20000 kids based on whatever criteria they want. But don't let that system continue to distort educational policy and funding for the rest of us.
This was a sad turning point for me. We used to have a single streaming platform with an awesome library, a granular review system, and user reviews. You could easily take a quick look to read other users thoughts on a film. Now I have to lookup metacritic / reviews myself, and the NF recommendation is based on whether I've said something is 'palatable enough to watch, isn't terrible, but I'd never watch it again' (thumbs up). I've taken to only thumbs upping stuff that I particularly like to see if that's any better. It all seems to be the same from an uninformed end user perspective.

I remember they stated the reviews would still be available in some form for export.

It's no longer the Netflix of old imo.

Interestingly, the power supplies themselves are unregulated; regulation is done by the motor-generator unit.

> Rust is faster than ...

Not if you use the wrong constructs, copy stuff around in the heap, use ref counting everywhere in longer running processes.

I'm not nitpicking here, in Rust you can get really fast, but its on you to make that happen.

For example persistent data-structures (used in Clojure) are really fast and for some operations and cases even close to optimal.

Performance is hard, and I very much agree with your question here. What has been measured and what are the results.

You should checkout Hopsworks (disclaimer: work on it). It does all of the above (including a Feature Store, notebooks as jobs, airflow for ML pipelines, model serving (TensorFlowServing, Flask, and soon KFserving), experiments, a project-based multi-tenancy model that supports sensitive data on a shared cluster, and a UI. It does not have a labelling system - but you can pip install libraries. You don't need to learn Docker - each project has a conda environment, and we compile Docker images for projects transparently, so jobs are tied to Docker images, but you don't need to write a Dockerfile (this is a huge win for data scientists). You can run Python jobs (connect to a k8s cluster) or Spark/Flink jobs (on Hopsworks itself).

When I was reading the article, I thought the author of the post was probably pointing more in the direction of Clojure's immutable data being slower, rather than laziness specifically.

IME (admittedly in a different context, doing UI development) Clojure's seqs and other immutable data can be a huge performance drag due to additional allocations needed. If you're in a hot loop where you're creating and realizing a sequence immediately, it's probably much faster to bang on a transient vector. Same with creating a bunch of immutable hash maps that you then throw away; better to create a simpler data structure (e.g. a POJO or Map) which doesn't handle complicated structural sharing patterns if it's just going to be thrown away.

Transducer's would help in the author's first case to take the map/filter piped through the `->>`, which is going to do two separate passes and realize two seqs, and combine it into one.

> Wealth is increasing for everyone, generally speaking

That depends a lot on how you count. See:

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/WFRBLB50107

The average net worth of the bottom 50% over the last 30 years is about the same as it was 30 years ago.

Compare to:

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/WFRBLT01026

and note that the net worth of the top 1% has been increasing more or less monotonically for the last 30 years, with only a very small dip in 2008-2012.

The bottom 50% take a much bigger share of the losses and a much smaller share of the gains. Over the last 30 years the bottom 50% has barely broken even.
Also, peer review in astronomy generally consists of correspondence with a single reviewer. There may be multiple rounds of review but a significant majority of papers submitted by professional astronomers doing serious research to journals are ultimately published. It is not the norm in astronomy to be rejected outright from a top journal and then submit to a lower tier journal, instead almost everyone publishes in a few popular journals. This is a tradeoff, but definitely in astronomy at least this means some iffy papers are ultimately published, even in ApJ, and you must always be aware when reading the literature that the paper you are reading is not infallibly correct just because it was published in a journal.
I find this within the sciences also. A lot of the more provocative scientists are willing to be wrong while promoting strong versions of their hypotheses. While this can be criticized as unscientific, I tend to believe that it serves a scientific purpose. Presenting a strong version of a hypothesis pushes people to contend with it, gather empirical evidence, and then incorporate a more moderate version into the idea-sphere.
