I think the thing you may be missing is that almost all of those offices are in Europe, Asia, or Oceania. I know my coworkers (I work at Google) in those locations are largely back in the office some, and excited by that.

Having worked from the Zurich office myself previously, most people are within walking/biking/a 5 minute train ride to the office, so commute concerns that we have in the US aren't relevant.

Similarly, most people in those locations live in apartments or condos and so may not have a space to make a home office. Returning to the office to make use of the (superior) workspace in the office. I can say that for example on my team, around half of my coworkers (whose offices are open) are consistently in the office.

Yes, I'm bullish on the potential savings of standardization, of course in healthcare the devil is in the details so it matters what they mean by those things.
That's not very practical for what I'm trying to do. A Postgres extension can access a very wide range of internal functions (hundreds), and most of them have the potential to ERROR (longjmp).

These functions are of all different kinds with different numbers and types of arguments, so I'd need to wrap each one, or would need some pretty clever macros or code gen. Rust has really powerful macros (which I'm using currently), and I don't think it would work out as well in C. Also, it means a lot of symbol bloat, because each of these new C functions needs a symbol.

Also, it would mean that my crate would no longer be pure rust, so I'd have to figure out how to build all this C code on whatever platforms.
Heh. Not far off, in my opinion.

And just to be sure, I would like you to start from the beginning of the person's medical training and not include the gatekeeping bit of having to get a bachelors in a random subject unrelated to medicine.

I note this Wikipedia article that suggests 4 years messed school plus 1 year internship could get me a license in the US. That sounds like Western Europe to me. Or India...

People claim a lot of things, it doesn’t mean they are of substance.

We have sufficient evidence of advanced tool making and culture spanning back far enough through human history to indicate that intelligence isn't a modern fluke, heck copper mining and smelting dates back to at least 9000 BCE, the pyramids in Giza date back to 2600 BCE which means that we are closer to Caesar to today than Caesar was to the pyramids.

While I’m open to discussion that over 350-400K years some evolutionary steps happened as far as our intelligence goes. But I am more than comfortable with stating that plucking a human from 10K BCE and exposing them to modern education would yield an average human today.
The trick to the utilitarian calculation is to include the externalities of all the work he's putting in -- an engineer's salary is only a subset of the value they create for the company.

The question is really how do you count all that excess "value", and is it good-value or evil-value. Once upon a time, the culture over there explicitly stated that they didn't want it to be evil... the bikeshedding going on here is opinions about the current implications of it all.
It's not just cumbersome - it's completely illegal to open a hospital. The lack of competition is the root of all of this mess.

Some have noted 'bottlenecks' at the MD entrance level.

There is an opportunity to allow for procedural specialization so that 'techs' can do a lot of the work normally done by docs and nurses.

'Early detection' is a new, major shift in how medicine works, because the things we get now 'come on slowly in a hidden way'. Allowing for technical specialists to run operationalized testing with standards, clear rules etc. may enable us to get costs down and possibly improve outcomes.

My bet is that someone with very narrow and focused training may be even 'better' at that thing - so long as we can put a nice dotted line around it because of course it's always more complicated than just 'one thing'.

Perhaps requiring 'best price' for all so that individual payers can get the same price as insurers might work, though it's not exactly 'free market' it mostly is. Transparency - so that everything is published and public might work as well.

It may also be worth not billing specifically for low-cost materials used, and just roll it into the type of visit.

> You could set up a monitoring system for the monitoring system...

I'm considering this for a home automation system: a smaller, simpler device connected to the network, powered via battery (recharged from mains but surge protected) aka UPS, and able to send SMS messages via mobile network.

The idea is it's a heartbeat/monitoring system for the essentials:

- power cut/outage
- network down/outage
- main server down, or has some problem

Then I can get an SMS telling me something's wrong.

i think the main difference is if i have car insurance A and get into an accident they send me to body shop A, or at worst i go to body shop and send insurance the bill. If i need to see one of the 15 dentist in my area and there 100s of dental insurances there is no guarantee they take my insurance. When i switched dental insurance to another big regional one, my current dentist didn't accept that insurance, so now im paying out of pocket or finding a new dentist.

That is definitely not the argument - everyone pays for peering regardless (one way or another). The argument was that Comcast, despite peering agreements, should not make Netflix traffic on their own network slower while prioritizing their own video services traffic on top of it unless Netflix or their customers paid them for the privilege of not being slow - regardless of actual bandwidth.

Net neutrality would say no - they are a defacto utility and need to treat the traffic objectively and fairly without prioritizing their own at the expense of others.

Reprioritizing say ALL video traffic? Perfectly fine. Peering arrangements at the network link layer that would benefit some players due to locality and not others? Perfectly fine as long as they don’t do it explicitly to penalize a competitor (and even then probably fine).

Targeting certain services or protocols because they are a threat to their own products? Or asking for upsell money to get useful speeds for certain protocols not due to network management/bandwidth and handled objectively, but for revenue extraction? Not fine.

Would you like USPS or UPS to be able to charge you extra (the package recipient) to ACTUALLY deliver Amazon’s packages at the rate Amazon paid those companies already to deliver them, since they know you’re buying expensive things a lot and obviously have money? The extra load on their trucks from these packages is awfully expensive after all. Surely once a week deliveries will be fine for now unless you want to kick in? Don’t worry, the spam mailers will still be free.
Some people try to exploit this against China. But considering that China's population is probably larger than all developed countries combined and that these countries have sent a lot of their polluting industry there this is pretty normal and expected. They still emit less per capita than many developed countries since they still have large areas quite poor.

I think per capita figures and targets, taking global population into account, is more meaningful and shows that we must all individually make efforts.
I see what you mean. That's too bad. I definitely hope there's better support for what you're asking in the future.
The bottleneck is the cost of medical school. That cost is linked to the colleges raising prices because they can.

Medicare for All will surely help this, but free college will help as well.

The U.S. is like a dysfunctional family where the parents will not pay for the kids college even though they have the money.
The disk space used for snapshots is automatically re-claimed by the OS when it's needed by the user. The trade off is near-instant backup images.

And while MacOS sometimes has issues expediently clearing space the was previously used for snapshots, tools like DaisyDisk and others can force its hand if you need.

Bottom line, you don't lose available disk space by using Time Machine.

The only abiotic explanation of those puffbals I could come with is recrystallization of dry ice. I've many times seen water recrystallized as white puffy balls (a kind of very small hail). Maybe in special pressure/temperature range that also happens to CO2? Almost all of them DON'T look like they have stalks, only spheres laying on ground, but then there is figure 30 on page 29.

> You have a custom license for the proprietary components, which is designed to allow people to make some use of those, but is poorly-written ambiguous

I disagree with both the tone and content of your whole comment, but this bit in particular stood out. I'm a very happy TimescaleDB user, and I really like the company and community around it too. Also, support on Slack is amazing and they are always responsive on GitHub. And of course, I have read the license - to me, it's easy to read, and the intent is very clear. I see no ambiguity.
The problem here was that Apple is the only one who knows what's wrong with this new laptop and they don't have time to try to recover the data. Had the rights-to-repair law passed, the author would have had the option to try with a third party that could have saved his work (or to see whether it is an option). For many, $1000 for not losing two weeks of work is a small price to pay compared to redoing all the work.

The issue with having only first-party repair is that you have no choice other than to lose data.
Well yes. Clojure in general tends to have less special syntax and in general is designed very consistently. What I find very useful is the threading macro ->> and -> which basically is a pipeline:

(-> something (manipulation-of-something) (nextmanipulation) (anothermanipulation))

instead of:

(anothermanipulation (nextmanipulation (manipulation-of-something something)))

Often, you can remove some parenthesis in the first case as well.

I really love this. It is also very easy to just wrap it in a let or a function. This alone should open the eyes of anybody, who has written at least some Shell script somewhere or does some data analysis. If it doesn't, maybe the person isn't actually that great of a thinker or a practitioner and you would be better off around other people professionally. Frankly, who are the people, who cannot grok moving the opening parenthesis before the method/ function? I don't think I have ever met anybody like that - I only read/ hear about such people in comments or at conferences and I haven't heard a name yet.
Appreciate your comment, it’s good learning for me to hear a different opinion.

I might have extrapolated the benefits of a capitalist system too far.

But the main point still stands I think, the response to the above comment and the fact that it is very much those strong incentives that drive much of the innovation in our society today. It is not someone forcing someone to do something or pure good will that lead to these results.
More profitable than the racket they have going on now? Doubt it.

Hey guys,

Yesterday I launched Emtee. I think it's a little ridiculous that people's daily routines are splattered across blogs, vlogs, podcasts, individual text messages etc... and I think you should be able to find anyone's daily routine at any time by just searching for it. We built a really simple tool that lets people share their daily routine, and find their friends' routines. We also made it really easy to find all the other people who are working on the same habits that you're working on and offer each other a bit of encouragement.

Let me know if you find this interesting!

I suspect one of the reasons things become more predictable is that overheads start to dominate the time it takes to do things, and overheads seems to be much more predictable.
You “don’t have to write the test case” in the case of exceptions, but then you’re not getting the same coverage as with go. Just because a branch isn’t represented syntactically doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Note also that Rust’s ? operator isn’t going to be saving you from anything here since it just uses fewer characters to express the same branching logic, while languages with exceptions use none.

In general your org’s policies for what to test seems like a recipe for a low-value, high-effort test suite. Reminds me of the unit tests for getters and setters in Java.

Since when HTML5 became PWA?
BSC is a Eth competitor by Binance.

Gas costs in ETH have been at historical highs, making it uneconomical for players under 5-6 figures of capital to do basic transactions, let alone yield-farm / manage positions, so various DeFi dApps have moved over to less congested chains like BSC and Solana.

Sure, lots of scam projects due to cheaper deployment costs (again low gas fees vs Eth), but legitimate projects too: see PancakeSwap, which started out as a Uni clone, but has arguable expanded to offer more / different set of features.

Speaking more broadly, yes, we're in a crazy bubble, but that's really the case across all asset classes at the moment due to rampant central bank printing. Scams are proliferating in equities too, see SPACS.

Not to trot out the "this time is different" meme, but unlike the '17/'18 cycle, you have far fewer whitepaper copy-pasta scam ICOs and way more legitimate projects; with real teams, real users, real use-cases. Plus, institutions are actually ape-ing in, so take that for what you will.

IMO pace of development and adoption will only accelerate from here on the back of an already "mature" internet and mobile ecosystem + generational familiarity/acceptance of digital value in the youth.

As someone who grew up during the transition from analog-digital, crypto gives me mega 90s/00s internet vibes, especially the feeling of inevitability around the DeFi space.

It's certainly not what it's not, and it was what it was. Going forward, it will be what it will be.

Despite the claims from some quarters, it wasn't what it wasn't; despite the hopes from other quarters, it won't become what it won't become.

Some want it to be what it was, while others want it to not become what it is.

Everyone can agree that it might or might not become what it is. All anyone can do is learn from what it was, understand what it is, and work to make what it will be what they want it to be.

That’s a very specific interpretation of events
> Let's re-emphasize: the dire predictions of removal of net neutrality didn't come to bear.

Why would they start to use that power while the process is still ongoing, and there's (as can be seen in this very article) still active investigations of fraud in the underlying process?

That also brings up why do they want (and spend millions on) the removal of net neutrality if they didn't plan on violating net neutrality in the first place?
So, did they not realize this was a limitation of their system, they did realize it but they did not know BRK was going to hit the limits, or they knew both and just let it happen?
If you are printing money why would you give it to banks and financial institutions, and not to the people themselves? (Assuming good-faith and not the obvious explanation, of course).
But that's for PvP games. IMO, the problem with modern Tetris rules is that they're optimized for PvP modes at the expense of marathon mode.

In marathon mode, the only garbage blocks are the mess you create for yourself. These arise naturally from situations such as (1) receiving the wrong piece at the wrong time and (2) failing to maneuver a piece correctly before it locks. It is good for these situations to arise naturally during the course of the game.

If I was in charge of Tetris, I would retain Hold, EasySpin, and piece previews in PvP games where they make sense, but I'd disable them in marathon mode.

That line in the summary is a bit misleading. The authors didn't find a "bug" in any law - instead they found a corner case that wasn't coverred by an online tool hosted by the French government to estimate family benefits under French law:

> After close inspection of the OpenFisca code, a discrepancy was located with the Catala implementation. Indeed, according to article L755-12 of the Social Security Code, the income cap for the family benefits does not apply in overseas territories with single-child families. This subtlety was not taken into account by OpenFisca, and was fixed after its disclosure by the authors.
