This is not making sense. Credit is necesarily coming from some place, that is in most likely tax revenue, so it is mostly in same as a tax but with more steps and smaller direct impact. Also not correct, some tax can often be absorb by producer. You are making wrong question: goal is for to reduce carbon not producing more electric cars. This is possibly meaning different mode of transport, some things maybe remote, bicycles, trains, others. Carbon tax is enabling persons to make decision about best outcome and create the minimal of economic damage. Our needed outcome is createing tax for cost of carbon capture for every ton made of carbon in atomosphere. In ideal, this become a method for which any business can starting carbon capture, can receiving a simpel certification. Any person is then capable of finding any other person for to do his carbon capture and then producing appropriate credit form for government. This has making of capture all carbon in eventually and also creating lowest price with insentive for new developing technology.

Related to that, I would be for starting off with a state by state or federal Dental coverage for all. Overall health starts in the mouth. A lot of people don't know that. If we start treating people for simple things (before they get bad) in the mouth we will save a lot of money when trying to do Medical coverage for all.

That's not RSI! That's from posture! This happened to me when I worked on the couch with my laptop on my lap. And to my friend. And to my mom. And to my other friend. It's always the same source, the ulnar nerve root coming out of C8-T1, always the same problem, the angle of the neck (looking down) and the set of the shoulders (typically because the elbows aren't supported in a neutral position), and the fix is always the same, use a proper height desk with a proper height monitor and proper height arm rests.

I hate to get involved, as I am already feeling ill from stress today, but I can’t help but notice that the reasons being given as “things they’ve heard” as arguments against universal healthcare have nothing to do with the only reasonable argument I’ve actually heard.

That argument is this: first look at the history - why is it that health care is so expensive?

I (well not I, but scholars of this bent) argue some of the reasons for that are (a) price and wage controls during ww2 leading to employers subsidizing health care as a way to increase real wages while sticking to the letter of the law, so to speak, and this becoming a “sticky” practice leading to a general divorce of payee and payer in the health care system, as more and more people get employee subsidized insurance, and thus allowing prices to get distorted as the signal was hidden behind the subsidy, and meanwhile (b) the AMA, restricting the supply of doctors, bolstering their prestige, and wages. Etc etc

Just talking from the point of view of the price system, meaning nothing against people with other arguments for the existence of the ama.

So, if health insurance removes the direct price signal from health care provider to health care recipient, prices rise for years, and the problem festers and grows worse as politicians punt it down the road...

Finally we come to the universal health care system as the answer. In this light it may be seen as a further divorce of payee and payer, such that cost will rise over the long time horizon, or effectiveness per dollar will drop, etc.

On the other hand the public private quagmire that arose as a result of insurance company protectionist land grabs and back room deals between employers and insurers did no favors for outcomes under the present system. Anybody try a high deductible health plan this decade? What shit. It’s so bad that likely a universal system will be an improvement, even from this vantage.
To those who are in favor of a national healthcare system which is payed for using tax revenue:

I am personally a big fan of the FAA, which I believe fits those criteria, but the FAA requires a substantial filter you have to pass (generally: getting a pilot's license) before you begin interacting with them.

Because the unfortunate experience I have had is that some of these national-level projects do work passably-well for micro-countries like Canada, but don't seem like they would scale at all for the 3rd largest (by population) country in the world.
Honestly sounds like you, and to a lesser extent your children, needed high school for non-academic reasons as much as most people need it for academic reasons. If you have problems in school and test in the top 2% of intelligence, you have problems in other areas that need to be addressed, and can be in a social classroom. Speaking from experience.
The very study referenced above undermines the claim it is supposed to support.

It does not assess the distribution of presentations by stage, it notes a 14% gap of US population coverage (i.e. people entirely unaccounted for in the survival statistics), and if you refer to tables 6 & 7 it's clear that the US overall has slightly worse net 5-year survival rates than Australia for some cancers, and slightly better for some.

In practice, the standard of care available in both countries is very high. It merely remains to present for treatment in time, or whether the system sees you at all.

I must add that focusing on death promotes the repugnant idea that mortality is the only cancer outcome worth assessing. It is not. Taking a moment to considers humans as people, not a pile of potential corpses, will I hope trigger consideration of the quality-of-life consequences of late presentation: people suffering unnecessarily for considerable time, where the incentive for them to suffer instead of seeking treatment is socioeconomic.

Moreover, irrespective of eventual outcome, such cases are more time and resource-intensive, which (along with rent-seeking organisational cliques) is a contributory factor to the fiscal inefficiency of the US health system.

I don't think it's that people are "disturbed that someone of less means should have access to the same hospitals and doctors as them" but rather that that they don't want to have their own access to those doctors delayed, rationed, or removed. (It's not "I don't want others to have what I have" but rather "I don't want to lose what I have".)

If I'm honest, I basically fall into that boat. When my son shattered his arm, we went straight to Boston Children's and got the best imaginable care. When my wife had a scary situation, I called several MD friends and found who were the best specialists to consult and we went down that road and got a good outcome thankfully.

I sure hope to hell everyone has those same experiences at emotionally and mentally trying times. We've had generally very good experiences with our medical system and I'm reluctant to risk blowing all that up, trying to re-jigger the entire financial foundation of the industry, and hope that what comes out the other end is every bit as good but a lot cheaper.

That sounds simultaneously fantastic and fantastical.

In American rap culture, rap artists are usually expected to write their own lyrics without significant help from other songwriters, with the exception of samples, production, and any parts of the song that are not rapped.

https://www.complex.com/music/2012/08/the-nas-controversy-an...

That's why the WAP songwriters are the rappers (Megan thee Stallion and Cardi B), the producers (Ayo N Keyz), and the songwriter of the sampled track (Frank Ski). Many other genres do not have this kind of expectation.

If you are accusing the WAP songwriters of employing ghostwriters, that is a severe allegation and needs evidence to be taken seriously.

Disclaimer: I am in favor of health care for all.

The best faith argument against health care for all is that it creates a strong incentive to limit freedom.

If the government were responsible for everyone's healthcare, then it would want to reduce healthcare costs. If it were to reduce healthcare costs, it would have to understand and regulate or tax things that hurt health. Things that hurt health are things like sugar, tobacco, alcohol, advertising unhealthy stuff to children, sports, especially adventure sports, driving, etc.

If the government can draw a direct correlation between sugar consumption and health costs, there is now a strong incentive to tax and regulate sugar.

If people go skiing and that becomes a significant health cost (broken bones) you now have a strong incentive to tax skiing.

For adventure sports, it's easy to imagine what is currently the balance between safety and excitement could end up being regulated past a point you would personally be happy with.

This increases government size, increases government intervention, and limits both business "freedom" and individual freedom. The catch phrase for this line of thinking is "nanny state."

Personally, I don't like being obese, and I don't like looking at obese people and "just don't eat sugar" is harder than it sounds. I am quite in favor of government intervention for the benefit of society as a whole in the form of things like sugar tax or sugar regulation, but I find the argument that this kind of intervention harms freedom compelling (just not more compelling than the benefits of giving up that freedom).
Interesting, my anecdotal experience is quite different in that I have had trouble getting fixes within both my home and my office with fairly fancy receivers and antennas with LNAs (u-blox zed-f9p, and m8t). At work, even right by the window is challenging. But these are high-rises in with thick walls in a big city and probably tons of multipath...

Did your receiver work at high altitudes? I guess ITAR rules have been relaxed so GNSS receivers are allowed on balloons with no problems nowadays.
The ACA forced people into this system with the individual mandate. I gave the insurance industry zero dollars until the ACA forced me to send them almost a thousand dollars a month. Before the ACA you could go to the doctor and just pay out of pocket. If you’re healthy this was a much more cost effective solution.

So not only did the ACA continue the increase in healthcare costs, it forced more people to pay for something they didn’t even need.
This is just like when they got rid of the star ratings. It annoyed me at the time, but it all makes sense. They want to take away tools that allow you to make your own click choices and doing so gives them more power to control what you ultimately click on.
I did some work to speed up string garbage collection under Applesoft (for my BBS). Applesoft Basic didn't use any back pointers or anything of the sort, if I recall, or garbage markers. It bump-allocated new strings at the top of the stack, and let unused strings naturally become garbage. Strings were garbage collected by visiting the reachable strings in order of descending address and compacting them toward the bottom of the heap (high address).

Unfortunately, this created a challenge. There was no place to sort the strings into the required order to do this traversal. The built-in garbage collector used a horrible O(N*N) algorithm, making multiple passes over the strings to find the highest remaining one, and move it.

The string pointers could not be sorted because they sat in string variables and arrays; an external copy of those locations would have been required to hold the sorted strings, with back-pointers to the original locations to update their addresses. There was no space for this; the garbage collector was invoked exactly when the machine was almost completely out of RAM.
The authors of this document may have been influenced by an article written just months before, by notable science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke:

"An 'artificial satellite' at the correct distance from the earth would make one revolution every 24 hours; i.e. it would remain stationary above the same spot and would be within optical range of nearly half the earth's surface. Three repeater stations, 120 degrees apart in the correct orbit, could give television and microwave coverage to the entire planet." [1]

FTA but not the main point of this thread: we’re now able to bring Live View to some of the trickiest-to-navigate places indoors: airports, transit stations and malls.

Seems to me that these are the easiest places to navigate indoors, because of the plentiful signage. Malls probably the hardest of the three, but still pretty easy IMO. I've never had any issue finding a gate or baggage claim at an airport, since there are signs every 10 feet or so.

> What a hopelessly naive perspective.

Maybe, but I was there, helping it develop in the early days, which is the time span we're talking about. I can tell you the core of the Android team was fighting to keep it open -- so much so that about three years in one of the guys who dedicated his job to open sourcing drivers and kernel patches burnt out because of it.

What Android is about is decidedly not what Play Services and GCM core are about.

> Try seeing how willing they are to add support for chipsets on phones that don't include Google Services

It's always been the system integrator's job to work with the OEM vendors to integrate drivers and functionality into Android -- not the Android team's. Even on Glass we had to do this as though we were outside system integrators.
I’m impressed to see the thoughtfulness of your response; not just correcting but and especially differentiating an “extreme” from “extremist”. I think it’s also helpful to differentiate the sentiment. One is an extremist position, the other is opposite. If you need more emphatic language the other is polar opposite. It can sound extremely far away (true without characterizing), or emphatically so (true without using words like “radically different” which are true but also emotionally misleading).
What is going on in the comments to this article?

Why has this relatively minor youtube feature change dredged up such significant vitriol and conspiracy-adjacent rhetoric in the hacker news comments?

Yes, that my second concern. If run on separate JVM, what is the difference between use ZK and use controller? Of course, If the new controller is more stable than ZK, more efficient than ZK, this will bring benefits to users. But this is essentially replacing zk with a better product, I think etcd also can achieve this purpose.

Ergonomic keyboard and switch to trackball helped a lot, but exercise helped the most. I find it doesn’t even have to be weightlifting or anything with the hands. It’s more about the cardiovascular workout. Running and cycling have improved my rsi significantly.
Agree, r == b in this example is confusing because in all other instances, the interface{} is a kind of box type. That box type is implicitly unwrapped in the r == b comparison. Although more verbose, I’d be happy with having to do something like this for comparison:

b2, ok := r.(*bytes.Buffer)
equal := ok && b2 == b
I'm not so sure that isn't just confirmation bias.

Compare his voice to that of, say, A-ha's lead singer. Now that guy has a voice. The same with the lead singer of Emerson, Lake and Palmer.

I'm definitely for universal healthcare, but one of my worries is the unfairness of an opaque system. Imagine if i'm waiting 3-6 months for an operation as I am for a COVID vaccine (true story!)

Our vaccine deployment differs by state, city, county. 30yos are getting vaccinated in a bordering state while 64yos are not getting vaccinated 20mi away. It depends on who you know, luck, bureaucracy, and how lucky you are with your particular county. I'm in Virginia now and no vaccine opportunity yet. Five miles away in Maryland my friends have received the vaccine.

Imagine this for every dental implant, sprained shoulder, etc.

I'm pretty sure universal healthcare works, but i'm not sure how to get our country to the point where it is at least fair for everyone.
This will be awesome in countries where I can't read the signage.
