> You’re free to believe that, but understand that this is well in the “wishes and hopes” territory more than a factual understanding of how doctors, patients, and pharmacists actually interact.

I made a good faith effort in researching this, and here are some examples of interaction you might be alluding to:

1. The doctor made an obvious mistake in dosage or a might not be aware of safer alternatives and the pharmacist contacts the doctor to verify that there wasn't a mistake on the prescription or mention those alternatives and see if they can persuade the doctor to change the prescription. Great, no issues with me. Everyone makes human mistakes. I do it in software also.

2. Something obvious they can see about the patient gives them some information that contradicts the prescription (i.e. an obviously pregnant women being given a drug that's dangerous to pregnant people). Again, they contact the doctor to inform and verify. Again, no issues from me.

3. Patients sometimes see other specialists and get prescriptions from them without informing their PCP (sometimes on accident), whereas a pharmacy probably sees all of these prescriptions, and can catch when two prescriptions could have dangerous interactions that a PCP or specialist might not realize they were causing because they weren't aware of the other prescription. Again they contact the physician and verify. Again, no issues from me.

4. The pharmacist has a religious reason not to want to fulfill a prescription. Some states that's allowed, some they aren't. In those where it's allowed, most pharmacies have a policy that they must allow another pharmacist at the facility to fulfill the prescription or help transfer the prescription to another doctor. Fine with me.

Note that for the first three, they generally contact the doctor and verify/try to persuade, not outright override and refuse. They help catch problems, not generally cause them. It looks like there are several states where pharmacists are actually required to provide medication[1], although that link mentions specifically personal beliefs, so I don't know if it applies for the other three issues as well.

If that's all you mean, then I don't think we disagree actually. But it doesn't look like it's as clear-cut legally as you were suggesting before, and I'm far from alone in thinking that pharmacists can't just decide never to fulfill a prescription without a damn good reason (i.e. it's definitely going to kill the patient).

> My problem with all methodologies are the lack of coherent stakeholders on the business side.

For internal or contracted apps, there is usually a well-defined customer. There may be other stakeholders, too, but that first one is the key.

If the problem is getting them (or their representative, and not a dev side proxy, engaged, well, that's the problem you need to fix.)

“Agile” methodologies that try to sidestep this, e.g., by designating a IT org proxy are broken in the same way as “Marxist” methodologies that try to sidestep the requirement for mature capitalist development and proletarian class consciousness, e.g., via an privileged revolutionary vanguard.

> Product owners are a poor proxy at best but at least they're a definitive throat to choke when things go awry.

That's pretty much exactly what is not needed.

> Being told for the 20th engagement in a row that the right people for a conversation about a feature can't spare the time to be in the the room to workshop it or provide meaningful feedback (so why are you paying $300/hr for my time?) is de-motivating.

Sure, and if that is happening often then prioritization isn't fitting business priorities, even if it is fitting what business says are their priorities.

Most states have their own mini secret police now. These Bureau of "Intelligence" agencies do not have much oversight. Often to the agents and leadership, their cultural and political views are more important than the law itself.

I don't think we need to defund the police but they need more oversight based on certain experiences and things I've read about over the years.

The same thing happened when the Soviet Union was going through its slow collapse. KGB type agencies became more and more powerful and the average citizens suffered as a result. Many of their methods have now made it here with things like psychological torture and using the mental health system to practice punitive psychiatry.

One silver lining to having a stasi-esque surveillance state is that it watches everyone, even the crooked cops involved in a conspiracy. Unfortunately, the public in the U.S. seems to be fully onboard as we continue our descent into a fascist state.

As a user of Brave, I completely agree with this. I wish the tab grouping could be disabled instead of forced upon users. And despite the issues with Fenix's project management that I mentioned in my post, I still believe that between Google and Mozilla the latter organization would be more willing to listen to user feedback and not attempt to move forward with features such as those. I can't imagine Google suddenly deciding one day that tab grouping was a mistake and walking back such a feature.
New Zealand has two types of residence that resemble what other countries call permanent residence, one is called Resident, the other Permanent Resident.

Resident is like permanent residence in most other countries (e.g. green card in US, PR in Canada, etc). A New Zealand Resident can live in the country indefinitely, but if they live outside of New Zealand for an extended period of time, they lose their Resident status. This is again like US, Australia, Canada, etc. After two years of living in New Zealand as a Resident, one can apply for Permanent Resident status, which does not expire regardless of the length of absence from the country. In other countries, you have to get citizenship before you can do this. In New Zealand, Permanent Resident is a status between Resident and New Zealand Citizen. What the article says is that he is a resident, he can enter New Zealand for now, but his status is of the expirable kind.

New Zealand Resident ~ US/Canada/Australia/Germany/etc. Permanent Resident

New Zealand Permanent Resident ~ Nothing that I know of, it's unique

When invoking `sudo`, you're escalating privileges on the command followed but that doesn't apply to the redirection of output (`>`). So it's saying permission denied to write to the files. You'll need to do something like `curl | sudo tee /path/to/file`. Same with `echo`.

> if your actions (or messages) are a liability, then why make them in the first place?

They may not be to begin with. Think changing morals or changing governments. Also I really hate this sentiment in general. Your solution is to just censor yourself. We're talking about about the abstract here.

> If you deleted your messages, it doesn't delete the record (from someone else's phone, for example, like a screenshot).

I feel like I literally addressed this above in my second paragraph. It's much harder to search multiple phones than a single phone that has all the information consolidated. Security is not about being bulletproof but that your are sufficiently difficult to attack. This distributed version of your data is harder to attack. That's the advantage.

> If the adversary is powerful enough (like a state actor), it matters not what your phone history is, because they can pin something on you anyway.

Pharmacists can refuse to fill prescriptions they believe will harm the patient. The law does not restrict it to the narrow circumstances you have listed. “You are giving a deworming medicine for Covid as an off label use. No, I believe that this will harm the patient” is 100% within their legal right. My state explicitly states that every pharmacist should consider whether an act is “consistent with the licensee or registrant’s education, training or practice experience” even if it is not expressly forbidden by the bylaws. This is much more expansive than you’re implying.

Legally in my state they must refuse to fill prescriptions they believe were not created by a proper doctor patient relationship, which includes a lot of these Ivermectin phone doctors. But that’s a slightly different issue.
The book Difficult Conversations is geared toward interactions with other people, but I think the lessons are also valuable for understanding your own mental state and behaviors.
I am skeptical of this idea of "good dairy" and "bad diary". Especially the corn fed/grass fed distinction. It would be nice if you had some studies to back up the claim that corn versus grass fed dairy makes a difference in long term health outcomes rather than just pointing out that there is small difference in omega-3 levels in corn-fed versus grass fed beef. To the best of my knowledge, the science on this is very mixed at best.

Did you also know that you are legally allowed to decline medical procedures? You can even sign yourself out of a hospital AMA ("Against Medical Advice") if you don't like what's happening.

You are also completely free, and generally advised, to seek alternate medical opinions.

The existence of a medical procedure or option has not, and never does, obligate you to take it.

> Just because one field tells you something should be there doesn’t mean an extra null-check would hurt.

IMO, it would. NPE exists for a reason: to instantly alert you to a bug and/or contract violation. Maybe I misunderstood the author's intent here, but sweeping the contract violation under the rug with a superfluous null check doesn't seem to help anything here. If successMsg is null, what are you going to do, display "" instead? Often, immediate termination with NPE seems to be the best approach in cases like this, IMHO.

Is there any evidence that intelligence is genetic? I dont think your height was stopping you from getting to the NBA, nor is that even remotely obvious. You may find your height to be discouraging, but you could have very well possessed the potential to play professional basketball. You'd be 3 inches taller than Muggsy Bouges who played for 14 seasons, 1 inch taller than 13 year vet Earl Boykins, and the same height as slam dunk contest champion Spud Webb.

Colleges might be letting more people through, but I dont think people are any dumber. Some people just aren't concerned with understanding everything they come across. Some kids go to college for no other reason than that's what they're supposed to do. If they cared they would be able to learn just as much as you or anyone else.
Bingo. The kind of problems OP talks about are fairly frequent, but this problem of train speed estimation is not it.

Also worth discussing is what happens when instead of one you put 30 sensors to improve your estimate of the speed. Good luck figuring out the closed form Doppler expression in that case (you technically _can_ use Kalman filtering but you are assuming each sensor is independent - they would not be, they would be correlated based on their spatial location and closeness to train).

With deep learning, all you need to extend your 1 microphone solution to 30 is a lil bit of pytorch code to add more neurons and some plumbing to pass in 30 audio streams but that's it.

Not to mention extensions to more complicated scenarios - people talking nearby, cars nearby etc. With deep learning you probably wont even need to modify any code, just throw training data (assuming your original model architecture is well designed).

Well, this study does not jive with "The China Study", a 20+ year long study that pin points dietary cholesterol (mainly from meat and dairy) as the primary cause of disease and early death.

The authors of The China Study conclude that people who eat a predominantly whole-food, vegan diet—avoiding animal products as a source of nutrition, including beef, pork, poultry, fish, eggs, cheese, and milk, and reducing their intake of processed foods and refined carbohydrates—will escape, reduce, or reverse the development of numerous diseases. They write that "eating foods that contain any cholesterol above 0 mg is unhealthy."[6]

You're picturing a world where the only land that exists is forested land and you have to choose to either leave it a forest or cut it and use it for agriculture or grazing. But a lot of land is not forested, and not suitable for agriculture. But it is suitable for grazing. This is the otherwise worthless land that can be converted by cows into food.

As I said, land use issues where you replace forest with cows is a problem (though not in the US, it is a problem in the developing world).
The absence of alternatives is my concern. If we optimize for better organ replacement instead of optimizing for how to help people keep their existing organs functional, it's really an asinine thing to pretend they have some kind of meaningful choice.

"Oh, well, now that we've let your organs decline this far, you can get a transplant and maybe live. Or you are free to decline it and almost certainly die." is not a meaningful choice.

I've gotten ridiculous amounts of flak for making real choices about my health. Much of the world would like me to know I'm evil incarnate for doing prosaic things like eating better as a first line of defense.
Absolutely it is. If everyone else is paying, but not you, you're being subsidized.
and it isn't javascript, so it's essentially a template language. It's just being turned into javascript, which then goes into the vdom, which then gets diffed with the real DOM, which generates code to reconcile it with the real DOM.

I gotta say, I think React w/ JSX is far more of a weird and specialized era.

The real difference you're talking about is having the server render each user's UI versus offloading that to the user's machine. Regardless of whether it's via strings, 1s and 0s, https, rpc, etc. Browser's have become a more powerful "general purpose" renderer, so it makes more sense that they'll continue to take on more of the UI work themselves. It's still not as good as a purpose built client though, as sluggish electron apps have demonstrated. And sometimes it might still make sense to render the UI on the server (and cache it) for either / both simplicity and performance.

Occasionally you'll even do a bit of both with a client side app being rendered server side then hydrated... talk about a weird and specialized era.
Determining effectiveness through the number or media reach of doctors talking about it is the opposite of science.

If you aren't adapting your process continuously (or, rather evaluating it continuously and adapting as needed), you are giving process a priority over the concrete team (in the broad sense, including the customer) and set of challenges faced that is exactly what the first value statement in the Agile Manifesto is about not doing.
