Maybe universal prenups are the solution then. Prenups are nice because they keep the "exit" well-defined.

In fact, prenups are romantic! Why? Because some marriages are kept together only out of fear of the divorce process. Isn't it better to stay together out of love and affection, rather than fear of the consequences of a messy exit? So yeah: prenup == VERY romantic.
This is my same reaction to opiates. After telling my doctors I didn't want anything opiate-related for anything. I had a year and a half of really bad colds and strep that was probably at-that-point undiagnosed asthma, and the docs kept giving me codeine syrup. After getting ignored for so long, I switched to telling them I'm allergic to opiates. Now it's in my records and now it doesn't come up anymore.
Most documentation follows that first path. With a step 4. that is basically "only update this when something is broken, or when we're hiring someone new".

Doing documentation well, especially if you're working on brand new tech, is very frustrating and difficult. You're often moving too fast to find the time to retroactively update documentation, and you're right back into the viscous cycle of it constantly being out of date. I don't know what the solution is.
I think your position, and that of the FDA is based on emotion, and not any logical reasoning.

The Thalidomide crisis cased a few thousand issues.

The risk-benefit analysis clearly favored lifting the ban on COVID vaccines after successful phase 1 trials, in June 2020 or so. They decided they should be banned until further study, during a pandemic.

The FDA was empowered explicitly by congress to take more aggressive action during such a time. They opted instead to ignore that mandate, and instead run things like normal, albeit with taking reasonable time to respond to a crisis. The deaths of 100,000 to 400,000 could be directly blamed on the simple fact that for most of this crisis, we had not 1 but approximately 8 vaccines that were all expected to be safe and work, and all turned out to be safe and to work. Vaccines candidates are not like Thalidomide, period.

It's important for citizens to publically shame the FDA for their actions, and demand change from our elected officials.
You could also just have large import tariffs on food.

I’m honestly suprised the us doesn’t just have a 25%+ import tariff. Would quickly cause more domestic manufacturing.

Like why do we even import garlic from China. We have plenty of domestic ability to produce.

Why would a 24th century all-purpose info-tool not actively monitor and attempt to characterize all signals received?

I mean look at all the sensors we can pack into a phone nowadays: crazy zooms, infrared, a wide range of radios. And that's in just 10 years, imagine how much improvement can be made in another 400 years. Honestly, if I were regularly beaming down to visit planets at wildly varying and unknown levels of technology I'd want to know as much as my reality-refractor could tell me.

> Not getting an EUA is not at all equivalent to a black label.

It is equivalent though, because without an EUA it's illegal to give that vaccine. Right now, we are supply constrained on vaccines - the choice for the people on the margin is not "AstraZeneca now or Moderna now", it's "AstraZeneca now or Moderna in a few months, during which time there's an uncontrolled pandemic raging". Or rather, that would be the choice, except that the AstraZeneca vaccine is illegal to distribute so the only choice is "take your chances with no protection at all".

Some users (including myself) disable favicons, since I don't use favicons. (I disabled it when I set up the computer, far before I heard anything about favicon supercookies.)

In this case, it may be able to figure out that favicons are disabled (if the implementation is written to support that), but not more than that.

The only supplements in our household are b12 and vitamin D. B12 is a supplement in everyone’s diet in the western world already, as I have argued, and vitamin D is universally recommended supplement in the northern region anyway due to lack of sun exposure in winter. Instead of getting it through fortified milk or fish oil, we take a pill, and we feel a lot better about it.
As you indicate, Pandas is effectively another language, distinct from regular Python. E.g. it doesn't really use loops. So I think what irritates a lot of people about pandas is that they think "Cool. I can solve this complex problem in a couple of lines of Python code with pandas." then get irritated when they find that the couple of lines of pandas they need to use is "Incomprehensible pandas gibberish" instead of the familiar Python code they were expecting.

It's worth noting, there is a pretty big difference between something like a simple spanking and being beaten with a wire clothes hanger. There's a trend to treat the two extremes both as "beating your child" and something a parent should be locked up for doing. I'm not a fan of that grouping.

There are times when a parent needs to do something that will make it very clear that the child's behavior is completely inappropriate. Things for which, if they do not teach the child this, it will cause problems later. For some people, that act may be a spanking or similar. For others, it might be making the child eat soap.

Personally, I'm a bellower. I almost never raise my voice. But when I do, I am heard... period; everyone in the house stops in their tracks to find out what has pushed me over the edge. I don't like yelling, but if my child is doing something that could cause them physical injury (or similar) and I cannot seem to get them to stop by telling them to... I raise my voice, a lot.
Is “you don’t need to know” a bad answer?
Look, I never tried to be offensive or even bully. But I care about the principle of calling things by its proper names and precise language usage. I am describing things exactly how I see them.

And I have reasons to do so. Like so many others I have traveled that road, from Haskell basics up to the latest writings and courses of that self-propelled category theory expert - Bartosz, for whom I have great respect.

However, at the end of the journey I came to different conclusions, that the whole subfield is nothing but a sect (the definition is a consensus based group of eager supporters) and the whole set of nested abstractions is empty of meaning, except in producing deeper and deeper nested abstractions. I cold provide analogies with Eastern religious sects, which I have studied too, where abstract things are described in minute details, and the merit is in the knowledge of these minute details, but I won't. It will only complicate this discussion.

So I don't see any meaning, and I see socially constructed interested, identical to esoteric teachings, which is even better definition of what Bartosz and others are doing.

Let's say it is Hegel all over again.
I think "having the discipline to focus on what's important" means consistently and periodically interrupting yourself, and asking "am I doing what's most important".

I think there's a tension between this and the deep concentration or "flow state" that people like to talk about on HN. In effect, there are different value systems, and people have a hard time stepping outside of that.
Double glazed windows might be more efficient, but that's irrelevant if you simply don't use double-glazed windows. I know single-glazed is quite common in Australia, apparently because there's no local factory for mass producing double-glazed and there's no market base right now because it's so expensive because it's imported, so nobody wants to take the risk.
Your timolol example is not that convincing.

The article you reference mentions a major Norwegian study showing that it prevents death had just concluded. So the FDA was acting on fresh data.

In addition, timolol is one of many molecules in the beta-blocker class and propranolol, another beta-blocker, was already approved in the US since 1973. And from a quick cursory google search, it appears there is no difference between the two when it comes to reducing hypertension and future risk of heart attacks.

It’s only currently possible to start one in 7 states and the District of Columbia. So avoid Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Montana, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Texas, New Hampshire, and Utah. Though New Hampshire only accepts them for probate as a spouse can inherit without paying taxes etc.

> I don’t believe you will be choosing which hospital you go to if you’re unconscious, or facing a serious acute medical concern placing you in desperation. Coincidentally, those tend to be the times when costs also skyrocket.

Firstly, emergency treatment is a tiny sliver of all healthcare, in terms of volume and cost. If you want to argue about healthcare in general based on that - nay, on the miniscule number of unconscious people admitted to hospital - be my guest, "never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake" and all that.

Secondly, I think you should look into how the Japanese system works before making statements about it. Your beliefs are of no concern to truth or proper analysis, especially when they don't accord with reality.

> The issue with treating healthcare like a free market is that some people just won’t get healthcare. Free markets aren’t going to build a hospital in a small enough town because the cost can’t be justified.

The issue with treating computing like a free market is that some people just won’t get computers. Free markets aren’t going to provide computers to small businesses because the cost can’t be justified.

I think the 70s is calling and wants your argument back. Before you reply with "computing and healthcare aren't comparable" they are, in fact, incredibly comparable. Health is like computing power, the more you have the more you want and can do, and hence - due to demand and people seeking to satisfy that demand - the more you can get. Reading these forums it seems like a quite profitable endeavour that is unlikely to end soon, much like healthcare.

> Your point that the US outranks most other countries is perhaps true for some things, but completely false for baseline measures such as infant mortality, life expectancy, cost per capita, etc.

That is something we agree on because that is the accepted starting point of the discussion, not a refutation to anything I have written or proposed.

> But our system is hardly “better” than other developed nations on almost any objective measure.

Back to the black and white thinking.

It is better in several ways and yet I am not an advocate of it because it is not a free market so I might ask why you're responding to me as if I am an advocate of it, but that is black and white thinking in a nutshell so I won't.

The problem is how to get more and better healthcare to more people. Aside from the endless examples outside of healthcare, less regulated markets in healthcare have met these requirements. For example, cosmetic surgery and things like lasik, the quality has gone up, the costs have dropped, availability is widespread and even approach normal.
Yes? 10 billion vaccine doses that cost $100 each would be a trillion dollars. Which is somewhere between 7% and 25% of the total cost of COVID-19 to the US.

The real question is whether we can afford to use our non-emergency drug approval process in a time of crisis. This time the answer is probably "yes, and it probably only cost a few tens of thousands of lives and a few trillion dollars" but if the disease in question had been Ebola instead of COVID I worry that we would have seen the same ineffective response that optimizes for minimizing liability instead of maximizing effectiveness.
Bubbles can only be called after they burst. From my perspective, there's no reason the fiscal or monetary policy can't continue this further. On the other hand (note: sample bias) I see a growing number of rational investors raising these concerns. Not that one guy shouting that tomorrow is the start of the next recession for the 80th time, but ordinarily quiet buy-and-hold investors.
What are you basing that idea on? Because the average car in here is 12.5 years old.
Yes, but can we make out of corn economically? If we don't care about price, we can just use 100% renewables to make glass.

"If you really just want to use loops and stuff (which I would discourage) just use a list or a dict or something."

Like my post said, I favor vanilla python over pandas... so yes, I use lists, dicts and somethings. FWIW, though, my workflow pushes everything into postgres, and things that would normally go into pandas are just accessed through SQL through and with helper functions.

In this case my understanding is that the group was basically new to the particular topic and data analysis technique that they were studying. At some level their errors were understandable, it would have been easy for anyone new to it to make similar errors. But when you start on a new topic as a researcher it's really incumbent on you to do your background reading and make sure you understand the field you're contributing to. In addition to that, Nature clearly did not assign reviewers who were knowledgeable about that topic.

So I would say that the first situation you laid out most accurately described what happened here. Obviously there can always be some Dunning-Kruger effect going on and it's hard to know what you don't know, so I don't think there's any easy solution. The main things that help when you're entering a new field are:

1. Doing a lot of background reading. A lot.
2. Showing a preprint to others in the field for their feedback.

Of course if you're sitting on what you believe to be big results, it's hard to do these things because they will slow you down.
Interesting. Chemically speaking, how so?

On the one hand it's highly unlikely anyone in that tower would get a shred of empathy from the common man (and highly unlikely this is even one of their 5 other homes), but on the other it's just a damn shame that some of the most prominent landmarks in the greatest city in the world are crappy places to live at.

a) My much cheaper car engages the brake automatically when I stop it and turn the engine off.

b) To engage the brake, you have to push the lever, and then it moves back to its original location, like a joystick. This means that there's no positive tactile feedback that the brake is engaged

To quote:

"The problem is that the "Monostable" design doesn’t provide any meaningful feedback about what gear you’re in — it returns to the center position after each shift. To completely confirm if you’re in drive or park or reverse, you have to look at either the LEDs on the shifter (often covered by your palm) or the digital display in the instrument cluster. This has confused thousands of people, led to over a hundred injuries, and now potentially a death. And it’s all because of a design that prioritizes screens over switches."

The 2014-2015 Grand Cherokee was recalled because of 304 vehicle rollaway incidents, 117 crashes, and a death.

There is no excuse for this kind of "too clever" design.

People drive while tired. People drive in emergency situations. People drive while distracted by screaming infants.

You can't blame dangerously bad user interface design on the users. Essential safety settings should be designed so that the operator falls into the pit of success instead of stumbling into the pit of deadly failure.
