I can certainly show you enough video evidence, whether these are admissible in a court I am not sure. Most of the reporting is in local language, Hindi. Here is one such video

For the 'bimari' thing, Shekhar Gupta a reputed Indian journalist covered that on his YouTube channel. Since I dont bookmark any of these, the links are little hard to find again. You can give it a shot by searching youtube and ThePrint. If I find time I can add a few other links that show the same.

UP government (a state that's run by the ruling party) was arresting and slapping terror charges (that allow holding the accused in jail indefinitely without trial) on those who were turning to social media to arrange oxygen cylinders for themselves or for their near relatives. The state government wanted to suppress the scale of their failure. In this particular case, the Supreme Court thankfully intervened and threatened the state contempt of court proceedings if anyone is charged according to these terror laws for asking for help on social media. You should have no trouble finding sources for this.
Yes, but I was responding to this quote by the OP:

> I hope her lawsuit is very successful. She was clearly targeted, ostracized, and fired for speaking her mind.

Those two statements have no connection to each other, since the lawsuit has nothing to do with her being targeted, ostracized and fired, instead (as you say) it's about her being defamed.

Depends on the definition of easier. Telling a multitude of voters they don't get to have their Normal Rockwell painting of a life, versus telling a handful (relatively) of farmers that their water usage is now restricted? Lawmakers will choose their interpretation based off of that.
1) Nancy Pelosi is ethical and an upstanding citizen, a true hero-person among ordinary people.
2) There are no prospective conflicts of interest in having your significant other trade on your behalf. If there were any such conflicts, they're acceptable anyway.
3) There's nothing unusual around these trades. Many lawmakers underperform the market anyway. Also some people under-perform and over-perform. Nothing to see here nor question.
4) Legislating around the companies you buy and sell is an acceptable, both in governance structure and in economic opportunism
5) There is no way to mitigate these conflicts of interest anyway, so there is no point in paying attention to them.

This reminds me of the case of Dax Cowart[1][2], who as a young man suffered tremendous burns from an accident which he survived but which killed his father who was with him.

He lost his eyes and face, had both of his hands amputated, and was forcibly given agonizing treatments for 14 months.

At his request a documentary video was made about him, which he titled "Please Let Me Die"[3]. It was shown to lawmakers and judges in hopes of allowing him to refuse medical treatment.

He was forced to endure the treatment against his express wishes, survived, and graduated law school to become an advocate of patient's rights. Still, he always maintained that he should have been allowed to end his life.

"No human being has the right to force another human being to undergo that kind of pain and to take away that person's right to self-determination."

But "Arc Consistency" doesn't solve a problem. It only removes "obviously wrong" assigments from a variable's domain.

The arc-consistency to the circuit constraint is NOT about solving Hamiltonian paths. Its about finding all "obviously wrong" assignments that can be discovered looking at 2-variables at a time.

Because all arc-consistency algorithms can be brute-forced by looking at all combinations of pairs of variables, we have at worst O(n^2) number of variables to consider to achieve arc-consistency.

Each variable only has a finite number of assignments (ignoring ILP with infinite numbers: assuming classical constraint programming). Which means that you can brute-force all possibilities in O(n^2 * d^2) where d is the cardinality of the domain, and n is the number of variables.

This means that reaching arc-consistency over the circuit / Hamiltonian path problem is in O(n^2*d^2) worst case (per propagation step. Another O(n) multiplier is added for reaching arc consistency over all variables), with possibly a specialized algorithm that goes faster than that brute force style.

Remember in the early 2010's when every bro on the Internet became an expert on scalability because he used MongoDB? https://youtu.be/b2F-DItXtZs (sort of like how Rust users are security experts today) I've been working on building a better database than MongoDB and it's called redbean. https://redbean.dev/ It supports web-scale nosql because you can use the executable pkzip structure as a document object store. It also embeds SQLite for SQL too.

As verbose as it often is, the lack of an opengl-style state machine in Vulkan (or Wgpu/Metal/Dx12 for that matter) makes it so much easier to reason with. About 70% of the bugs I've had to deal with in OpenGL involved me forgetting to unbind some buffer object or shader program from OGL's global state. From my experience the "simplicity" of OpenGL is often negated by having to write wrappers around every OpenGL resource type for safe resource management via RAII.

Not to mention, error handling is a huge improvement in Vulkan. In openGL, errors are stored in stack that gets popped by calling glGetError. A rookie mistake is only calling the function once, when you really have to call glGetError until the stack is empty every time you check for errors to catch all errors. By contrast, Vulkan just returns a vkResult structure on every function that can fail.

Suicide is notoriously difficult to predict. That meta-analysis is one example; once you account for base rates in realistic scenarios, you can do very little better than chance.

Some of this might have to do with the nature of predictors; maybe with deep learning and real-time data this might improve slightly, but I doubt it somewhat (there are significant ethical issues involved in such data regardless but that's a different issue).

One of the biggest problems in this area is that suicide is such a low base rate phenomenon that it's difficult to predict for that reason alone. Not only that, but many of the predictors are relatively high base rate by comparison, so there's a very very very low signal to noise ratio. Statistically speaking, it's like finding a needle in a needlestack.

I think adding to the complication is that it's not really that you want to know if someone eventually commits suicide, what you want to know is whether they do so within a certain actionable timeframe. That is, for most of the decisions such predictions are being clamored for, it doesn't really help to know that there's a 70% chance that someone will commit suicide eventually; what practitioners really want to know is "what are the odds someone will commit suicide if I make decision X right now." This is a significantly more difficult thing to study.

I personally believe that the approach to suicide in developed countries is horribly misguided and probably unethical, focused too much on the act and not prevention of the state (psychological, sociological, economic) that leads to it. It's unethical to leave someone in such a personal hell that they want to exit it by killing themselves; preventing themselves from doing so, without removing them from that state, only deprives them of a means of relief.
Tornadoes are picking up in upstate New York which certainly surprised me. Summer storms are also more intense than they used to be, but that can be mitigated.

Hurricanes ain’t shit here. Even Sandy wasn’t more than a moderate storm by the time it hit the Finger Lakes.

Winters aren’t as intense as they used to be, which sucks if you like skiing and snowball fights.

The real hidden gem here is clouds. It’s overcast more often than not. Plenty of water and shade to keep things cool even in midsummer. My window’s been open all day!
That's not true, because the goal is to establish a dictatorship of the proletariat through violent revolution. Democracies are incompatible with dictatorship and must be overthrown in order to purge the other social classes. This is why every instance of communism has led to human rights abuses and/or mass murder: totalitarianism is part of the ideology.

The tools pay off for sure but even once you know how to use deps.edn and company, I'd argue you still really need quick one-file programs.

It's not just about education (though that's important as well). I think the top two use-cases are scripts and issues.

Issues, .. well you want to be a nice dev and post issues with some sample code that reproduces the problem.. but you don't want to have make a whole repo (and then have it floating around on your github indefinitely?) just to show an issue/problem that takes 20 lines of code. So then most people end up copying the problematic code into the github issue text box.. and... it sorta kinda works? but not really. Neither you nor the library maintainer can actually copy and run the code now, so you both end up squinting at it and trying to guess what went wrong. It's just a mess. Even if you make a repo, then how do you get feedback? Other people need to fork and upload their own versions of your demo repo? It's just too heavy handed.

For scripts and quick hacks you want to bang out code quickly. Open up a new file and write .. slurp some files, massage some data, look at some values .. maybe spit out a plot etc. And you want to be able to quickly look over them 2 months later and see what the hell you did. You want to be able to send and share them easily. It really needs to be all in one file otherwise it's just too much of a hassle.

I think the final killer features of `add-libs` that I'm appreciating more as I use it - is that since you can add libraries right in the REPL dynamically you never need to modify your deps.edn and reboot CIDER! It seems minor, but restarting CIDER just always sucks.. and at least for me it breaks the "flow". You loose all the state you had (if you're poking around you can have lots of little variables around) and you loose all your command history. You can only modify your workflow so much to accommodate the inevitable occasional CIDER reboots.

I'd be more impressed if you demonstrated why the sample size lacks the power to demonstrate an effect. (Use math and show your work.)

One theory that suggests firing people can be a good thing is you want social consequences for bad behavior.

For example, firing people for joining the KKK is a good way to reduce their ability to recruit and radicalize others.

But under American law you can be generally fired for no reason, so it's weird we are even having this conversation in the land of no job security.

What is the number of people directly involved in production of alfalfa in the desert that would no longer have work if the alfalfa production in the desert stopped.

IIRC over 70% of people who have "bad" trips don't regret the experience, because the negative sensations were outweighed by what they learned.

In new clinical settings, "good trips" and "bad trips" are becoming antiquated terminology: "easy trips" and "difficult trips" are the new descriptors, and I think they're better. Your trip may be difficult, but that doesn't necessarily make it bad.

In practice, what we see happen with the big private Matrix federations is that the users start demanding being able to talk with users on other private federations, and/or the public Matrix network - and threaten to otherwise start using WhatsApp or Telegram or whatever for these sensitive but external conversations. So there is a huge incentive to actually federate properly, and we're talking to pretty much all of them on figuring out how to do so.
That's really not how doctors actually work in most cases.

There have been clinical decision support systems around for years which can recommend a diagnosis given complete and accurate clinical data. The real problem is gathering that data, and putting it in a form that the algorithm can use. An AI algorithm can't really gather a detailed patient history or make subjective observations about the patient's state. Those are steps which can't really be automated without strong AGI. In theory a doctor could do all the necessary data entry but in practice it would usually be a waste of time and no one wants to pay for it.
This looks interesting. All the best for your release!

I have a few small feedback items:

- The AWS Account ID is not very well blanked out in your documentation. I can easily see what the actual digits are (under the red scratched out parts).
- I realise English is not your first language, but there are many typos and mistakes in the documentation. Once you get a bit further on, it'll be worth sending it to someone to do an edit pass to clean it up a little :)
- Some of the AWS terms are incorrectly written in documentation. For example 'SecureSecret' instead of 'SecureString'.
- On the subject of secrets, would a better option not be to store a Secret using AWS Secrets Manager with the value you need to acquire? Also, I know you mention that the secret value is used and never stored, but how do we know that? If you have access to the secret via ARN and IAM policy, then in theory if your SaaS was compromised, the secret is still retrievable from the customer's account. How about using something like Vault to store secrets?

Thanks for sharing this - I haven't yet looked but the description itself makes me feel bad that we don't let people make decisions for themselves.

I feel the only reason we don't let people chose that path is to make ourselves feel good and feel "guilt-free".

I recently had a situation where someone in my family was diagnosed with a life threatening condition but the dilemma was that if you chose to undergo treatment their life will turn to shit. If you don't then they might suddenly die one day - albeit happy and normal.

I felt a lot of guilt trying to find reasons to convince people why the 2nd option was better. If you think rationally the only reason to pick the 1st option is selfishness. For the person who has undergo the treatment the 2nd option is hands down the better one.
