This isn't exactly true. Forensic evidence is never 100% certain, but intelligence agencies can and do infiltrate hostile organizations either via remote signals surveillance or embedding actual human spies. In both cases, they obviously can't publicly reveal the source of information, but they can be certain.
It is interesting (but maybe not surprising) that greater adversity seems to increase birth-rate.

Meanwhile, some European countries are experiencing declining birth rates [0], so maybe some balance will be found?

"We need immigration;"

No, we don't. This is a mantra that keeps being repeated without much substance.

Housing affordability, job quality, public finance sustainability won't get any better with immigration. Maybe salaries keep being depressed, consumer demand increases, and that's good for profits. But I can't think of much more!
My partner is from Essex and I thought she was kidding when she said she did the Eleven Plus. We learnt about it in high school history class in Scotland! The module was on the foundations of the British Welfare state and it was discussed as a barbaric practice from the past.

Do we get the AI doesn't detect location? This is just high school maths, pretty obvious I guess.

The "AI" is just used to see if it's a gunshot for early detection. Obviously anyone can listen in later to the many recording (min 3) to see what they think about the noise.

So the gun shot was in a car, so the mathematics fails. This is why it was withdrawn.

So if you were blaming AI it's important you blame mathematics instead now you are better informed. Because the only thing I hate more than the fake AI industry is people with an inconsistent stance.
This same proposal actually came up with drug pricing when Trump (and other before him) said the US should just reference the EU.

Many people’s first take is that it’s a terrible idea - it would result in spiraling prices reductions and damage R&D.

But what is really happening is you’re just forcing a single price across a wide group of customers. Prices in the US would fall, but they would go up everywhere else.

This actually happened in the US when Medicaid got “best price” passed - Medicaid has to get at least the best price offered to private insurers, if not lower.

Well when the law was passed, prices actually went up. The reason was that if you offer a price to mid-sized customer A and that forces they same (unacceptably low) price for massively huge customer B, well, you basically tell customer A “tough shit” and just price for customer B. And that’s what happened, prices went up for customer A so they didn’t have to also price the same for customer B.

So it would be an interesting approach - tell hospitals they can charge whatever they want, complete freedom, but it has to be the same price for everyone. They’d quickly find an equilibrium that’s likely lower for many customers and higher for a few.

"Based on what US doctors have to go through to start earning that pay, I would not say they are paid too well given the alternatives available to a person smart and driven enough to become a doctor in the US. For example, I would advise my kids that finance/tech/law/engineering has better a better pay to lifestyle ratio than becoming a doctor. Giving up your 20s and early 30s is an enormous sacrifice."

I deal with surgeons from time to time through work. Maybe their training is hard but being a surgeon is pretty much an almost guaranteed ticket to becoming a multi-multi-millionaire. These guys are extremely well paid.

What field impacts millions and isn't currently being paid well enough? I think the point being made here is that most of the jobs that pay super well don't create the same amount of "value" (and I use this loosely, as it's a super subjective term) as a doctor.
This year in a bout of melancholy boredom I started typesetting Anatomy of Melancholy in LaTeX with the goal of releasing it under a free software license and the pdf under creative commons.

I think the confusion arises because in the US we call anything that is a bus that takes you somewhere else “traveling by bus” which apparently long haul trips are called traveling by coach in the UK.

So as an American my first thought was “heck I could probably get to LA from Kansas on a 24 hour bus trip” and to see this person traveled only a few hundred KM was confusing until that was clarified for me.

I thought maybe they were gonna end up in Russia or something crazy because I have no sense of how big Europe is.
I wonder what happens when I upload to GitHub code that I have permission to distribute, but that I don't own, that GitHub doesn't have permission to distribute and I don't have permission to give others permission to distribute.
It just can't be that simple. Since there is a freer health market in the US than say in France, the staff costs would have come down with competition.

I think what we have there is a very expensive medical school system. And things snow ball. Especially given a doctor role. A doctor studies and goes through practical training a good 8 years. That's college/uni + health center fees that stack up with interest over a long period of time.

Doc then needs to make a living in accordance to his past effort, more than a living, get enough to earn the status he deserves. Now the thing is, taxes accounts for a lot given the high band income. So we could say the doctors are earning too much, but reality is 70% of their gross income goes to multiple tax tiers. 1/ income tax 2/ debt pay back 3/ insurer, continous training fees and other things that are sort of imposed on medical professional.

I'm not a doctor, but I couldn't figure out how even a surgeon could justify such high pay, in the million dollar per year in many US positions. But looking comprehensively as the taxes imposed on them, everything makes sense, all they have left is 200k per year. Cashiers and other clerks earn a quarter this amount, but that's for any less than what doctors are making not many would go through all these hops and be privileged enough to even take the risk of such a financial investment.

The argument that many doctors come from wealthy families doesn't invalidate the simple fact debt still exists and somehow needs to be paid back, and in most cases it does get paid back.

Solution? Get rid of income taxes, make medical schools optional to practice, just make exams open to any participant, affordable education channels will pop up by themselves. Don't regulate medical malpractice, practicians should rather have their lives ruined instead, it's actually a stronger incentive to proper practice than having a big insurer paying the millions in settlement cases.

The medical sector is far more tied to other industries and regulating costs than it looks. I only included 3 obvious contributors to high staff cost, there are numerous supply chains to look at to also account for other spendings that seem unavoidable but in reality pointless for health care.
Scientists have been predicting Climate Change/Global Warming for the last decade +. I'm not smart enough to predict the future but a lot of smart folks already have. Without some kind of break through change, water scarcity will drive regional wars and the greatest human migration the world has ever seen. I suspect the day will come when those Oil tankers that carried oil could possibly carry 10's of 1000's of desperate people crashing on the shores of distance countries daily. We here in NA are not safe from the affects of this climate change since it's also happening in our back yard. There are millions of people leaving south and central America trying to reach the Land of Milk and Honey. We will be over run with 10's of millions in the coming decades if things don't change.

I wish water was as interesting as space so some billionaire would take up the challenge of figuring out how to efficiently desalinate the ocean waters and solve one the greatest challenges facing billions of people around the world....
> “I kept trying to figure out, how can they get away with using the technology like that against me,”

I have a bad feeling this will be a theme over the next decade as government and law enforcement around the world starts to integrate "AI" (or rather call it what it is: statistical models + mass surveilence), without enough scepticism built into their process. Some of us know better, but it looks like society and government will still have to learn the hard way that these tools are not a highlight pen, they are a very crude spray can, and even then they will miss spots.
Pretty funny right?

Whenever I see these kind of take downs on HN I always get reminded of the Coinbase and Dropbox take downs and countless others of eventual very successful companies. I actually think the poster makes some interesting points - if they could be framed as more of a question it might have been more helpful. I for one will be be signing up at some point - I circle through the various sites subscribing and unsubscribing regularly - disney, netflix, discovery, paramount, hulu, prime etc so this will get added to the list.

My key question is how are you going to bulk out the offering - I think there is value in a smaller set of curated content but to keep my subscription I'll need to be able to get several months of content?

Could you not just focus on originals and licence some old classics as well?
That is not a blanket exemption. It is for "the owner of a copy of a computer program".

If you stole a copy of Microsoft Office on CD from a shop (back when that was a thing) it seems clear that using the software would have been a copyright infringement because you wouldn't have been the owner.

In this case you have the right to download the software (via the github agreement) but how does that relate to ownership and the legal exemption? I've no idea.

Gunicorn: Choosing the best worker type in production
It's worse than that; Pirsig reminds us that psychiatrists are literally thought police. From this perspective, psychology is a mechanism for justifying psychiatric abuses. After all, if psychology can show that minds exist, that there are normal and abnormal minds, that there are correct and incorrect modes of thought, then psychiatry has only to show that certain incorrect modes of thought form clustered disorders and syndromes. The resulting system can punish people for expressing anything which society doesn't like, from sexuality to politics to a desire not to be overworked.

I have been wondering about this for now close to a decade.

Why aren't there any news that are a list of bullet points?

Why do they not tell me a list of known unknowns in FAQ like section? If bullet point were the answer to everything we know about this news, then FAQ would list out things that you might ask but we dont know yet. I thought this was the most important section because first and foremost people dont ask questions. And even if they had questions their brains fill it out with assumptions which could easily be mislead by the bullet point. By explicitly telling them what we dont know ( yet ) helps to give a clearer picture.

Basically I want shit loads of signals and less noise.

>You can't give someone information but attach conditions to its use, except in specific circumstances.

Wouldn't that effectively bar the use of DRM? If I buy a blu-ray, I can't legally watch it unless I have a player capable of unlocking the content.

That may be one of the "specific circumstances," as there is a law that specifically forbids bypassing DRM.
Update:

In the New York Times article about this story:

- The earliest previous melting is observed "sometime in the 1880s".

- In ice core records going back two thousand years, there are a total of six melting events which are determinable.

Again, "melting" does not necessarily equal "it rained", though it's a necessary precondition for a rain event.

That shifts the significance of this event considerably in my mind.

> Also, hydrogen isn't a source of energy, it is merely a storage medium.

Yeah, we used to power cars with wood during WW2 but wood was just the storage medium. The wood was used to create carbon monoxide which was used in an internal combustion engine.
Which does not contradict anything I said. AMD having 20-30% market share in data centers sounds plausible.
Despite them not intentionally misleading I was excited to read about someone’s trip to Italy on a bus or something. I rarely travel in the US because every place is kind of the same. Why travel 400 miles when I can get some McDonald’s right here?
This is my mental debate. On one hand it seems like the endurance of the aircraft would suggest it had to be combustion based. But that would make it appear on thermals, so the fact that it is invisible to thermal would suggest it has to be electric.

An interesting mystery.
Actually it will be much less, as gasoline and diesel fuel production and distribution uses a lot of electric energy too.

Could you explain this part? I'm surprised the production of hydrocarbon would use electrical energy.
Do you claim to be able to understand the second link? Here is a sentence from that paper: “The mortality rate from falling bullets in general is about 32% that is significantly higher than nonfalling bullets 2%–6% although the latter's impact is much more potential to kill.”

I read the first one too. The problem with these anecdotes is that none of them rule out that the injuries were caused by a bullet on a shallow trajectory, with velocity much greater than terminal velocity. The only evidence is that no one heard a shot, but this is not convincing.

Nevertheless, there is a potential for serious injury and nobody should be shooting into the air for fun.
It is not just the number of people but he impact on each of these single person. Saving a life has an impact on more than one person as it is what allows that person to benefit society (potentially) for many more years (ideally).
The is almost no competition anywhere in Healthcare delivery. Drugs are under patent, doctors determine how many new doctors are allowed, you can't build a new hospital because there is already one serving that market. This all seems ripe for some sort of disruption.
Yes and also, this make nuclear not so responsible. In western nation nuclear are great for making electricity but cannot have so safely in unstable regime.
I don't think it's a major issue to take care of the elderly. If anything we need to take care of the young!

Pensions are very high in Europe, salaries stagnant, the elderly are property owners while the young are not.

Enough of cheap fallacies!
> Are you upset about the fact that you can’t have multiple isolated user-accounts on an iPhone?

The iPhone was mentioned once, to connect it’s not possible on either iPhone or iPad. This is about the iPad, a completely different class of device, where it makes sense it would be shared, at least within a family, and has nothing to do with personal pizzas.

It'a small point here, but the way you moved the goal post so your analogy applied more really bothered me.
Warsaw is different than most cities in Poland.
There are rainbow flags in windows; the recent Pride Parade was large, joyful, and safe. Cities in Eastern Poland are not safe.

I am not too queer but (as a men) I ocassionally walk wearing a skirt and painted nails. Initially I was afraid; but no-one ever cared. To be fair - I walked in the hipster parts of of Warsaw (e.g. Plac Zbawiciela).

In Warsaw, in most corporations or tech companies, people don't care whom you date or who is/are your partner(s). In old companies or public institutions, it might not be that easy.w And there is no marriage quality.

That said, the government (right-wing, authoritarian, Catholic, and reversing an already limited church-state separation) is openly anti-LGBT and anti women's rights.
Thanks, and good luck with the US!
Could be nominal, such as being paid less simply because you do not have another option. US pharmacists have had declining nominal pay and declining quality of life at work since at least 2016, and their pay had stagnated years before that. Check out the pharmacy forums on sdn or reddit, they are depressing.

Doctors, however, bring in money and can generate revenue. Their decrease in pay would probably be via quality of life at work. The biggest complaint I see lack of autonomy and being managed like a cog in the machine. Most likely, individual doctor will have no negotiating power with the people that pay them (governments and managed care organizations, aka insurers). Therefore, they will need to become part of a doctor group, usually as an employee. If you are at the bottom of the totem pole here, the employer is probably going to want to squeeze as much out of you as possible. Expect this to vary based on how desirable the area is you live in and how many competing doctors there are.

I also see many healthcare groups using nurse practitioners and physician's assistants far more than before. So when you go in for a healthcare visit, you will not actually see a doctor, but rather a PA/NP, who is (supposedly) under the purview of a doctor. But I am not aware of any standards that would prevent a doctor from having to be in charge of too many PA/NP that quality would start slipping, so I presume the workload will get higher and higher if doctors do not have much leverage with the employer. Again, probably will vary on how desirable the area the doctor is in and if the doctor's employer can choose to be picky or not.
I don't disagree, per se, but how many Linux servers are out there running outdated software on a system that hasn't been patched in years because it's working and stops working when updated?

I love docker because I can treat the security of the system separately from the application. As long as I can update Docker with the system I can keep the root OS secure and work individually on each container service. I don't run the risk of updating the server and causing the app to puke. if I update the app and it pukes, I can roll back to the original container while I resolve the problem.

In addition, all my services are slightly more isolated from the underlying OS, which limits exposure if an inherent security flaw is leveraged by a hacker. I guess I don't see why there is so much hate for docker.
The blog post and the README both seem to encourage use of the project. And a license that prevents all use including personal is very rare and not exactly in the spirit of GitHub. So I’m curious why both the blog and your README don’t mention explicitly that you don’t want allow use or explain why. Would it be worth putting something at the top of the README?

Dude digs a hole
Doctors and nurses are only a subset of workers who provide patient care in the US. There are a huge variety of technicians; basically one for every specialty. 9.8 million all-in, plus another 5.3 million other employees involved in less technical patient care (nursing assistants, non-bsn hospice workers, etc).

$2T/yr divided by just the 9.8 million = 204,081, which puts average comp in the 160s. Sounds right; around here your average nurse makes about $80k/yr with excellent benefits, and they are sort of the median employee.

And that's just the employees providing care. There's also an enormous bureaucracy.
I'd argue there are advantages to both cheques and paper money over digital. Your purchases can't be as easily tracked if you use paper money for example.
I generally agree, but wouldn't necessarily say a lot of forensics is junk science. The science is generally sound (procedures and theory). Usually it's the prosecutors that present the forensics in a way that misrepresents what the results actually mean. Or lab techs make mistakes or perform misconduct (How to Fix a Drug Scandal on Netflix is interesting).
The license forbids use. The project is (or was) clearly using it. GitHub is irrelevant.
All it takes is "Pedophiles are using Android to share images with one another in person by disabling uploading images to the cloud" or something like that to be a headline and the pressure will be on to follow Apple's direction.
If most people drive 20-40 mins to work then the same back each day then they are well within the range limits and can charge every night at home. They never have to visit a gas station. That’s actually much more usable. You shouldn’t drive more than the range of a modern high capacity electric car in one go anyway; it’s simply unsafe. Tesla and other fast chargers take 15 mins and more are being built all the time.
Waaaay less magic than Javascript. Looks like the rules are described here. Two kinds of numbers: exact and rough. Unless you use trig functions it will all be exact. https://www.pyret.org/docs/latest/numbers.html

Fun fact about Javascript: there are string and number constants x, y, and z, such that `x < y` and `y < z` and `z < x`. No NaN shenanigans, just regular small strings and numbers. Hint: it involves a string containing digits that starts with "0", thus sometimes getting implicitly coerced to octal.

Think about what this means for sorting!
