I don't understand your concern -- how does proportional ownership eliminate pharma's ability to price discriminate? I just think the US government should receive some prorated portion of profits from drugs they subsidized development of, which can be reinvested into further development.

Social Media is the next in line. In 20 years people will laugh at the articles and news report about it.

Something I wonder too is if suicides aren't just better reported today because there's less social stigma around mental health than in previous decades (for an extreme example, just look at the 1950's...).

Obie | YC S19 | Senior Full Stack Engineer | Chicago, IL | REMOTE | Full Time

Obie is looking for passionate, talented senior software engineers to join us with experience in Javascript, React, Typescript, Node.js, GraphQL and unit/integration testing. A small pivot in our journey has led to a strong product-market fit and we are moving quickly to build something incredible.

If you own a building with leases to tenants, you need insurance - whether the economy is growing or not. It is also an industry that has not evolved to use modern technology: workflows are manual, communication is messy and time-consuming, and people often don't know what they're buying or why they're buying it. Obie sells commercial real estate insurance in a new way: one that emphasizes transparency and human-centric automation.

We are a venture-backed technology company. Our early success is in large part due to our unwavering standards in hiring. We recognize that our product is only as good as the people building and promoting it. We look for individuals who find solutions by going through the cycle of ideation to implementation with curiosity, rigor and a highly analytical lens.

At Obie, we judge people based on the merit of their work. If you are passionate about what this role entails, are excited by solving real problems, and you want to help shape the future of commercial real estate, we want to hear from you.

We're based in Chicago, have an office in Florida, and remote employees across the US and Canada.

We welcome US/Canadian based remote applicants, but be warned: we'll try to persuade you to move to the City by the Lake.

Email me directly for more info or to set up a chat! Would love to learn more about you: Kara at k.funk@obierisk.com
> This is also why NFTs are kinds stupid, because you totally can sell someone a NFT which "claims ownership rights" without selling them any ownership rights legally seen.

It seems that the only thing you own when you purchase an NFT is the NFT itself. Not a little jpeg that it points to; just the bit of code on the blockchain.

It's kind of tautologically stupid. You buy a receipt that states you own that very receipt.
It's frustrating how close some people are to realizing that their favorite news sources are not news anymore. They're all propaganda pieces bought and paid for by big tech and government subsidies - being used to report on narratives and feelings to control how people react and think on social issues instead of thinking and reacting for themselves.

If they truly wanted to be unbiased, you'd write an article like:
- Permafrost is melting at faster rates than before in Alaska, showing varied studies and charts.
- People are being displaced because their houses were built for permafrost and now that it's gone their houses are falling apart. The journalist seems to have done this from my reading.
- We need to look at the future and see how this will affect our planet, our ecosystems around it, and the people directly affected by it.
- We're looking at old traditions and cultures to try and come up with new unique ideas to living in the north as 'naturally' as possible.

The journalist doesn't need to "tell" you you need to be concerned. They don't need to tell you "possible reasons or speculations in an industry or environment the journalist has next to no experience in, that may or may not directly correlate to the plight of the Alaskan permafrost but it's convenient and helps drive the narrative so we'll put it in". Tell us the facts and let us make our own opinions.

I'd read the original washington post article in full, but they want me to pay for it so I'll pass. Pay for biased journalism? Nah, I'm good.

> It’s unreasonable to the bottom line of the ISP because it’s high demand on an oversubscribed network.

No, it's not unreasonable. They sell consumers unlimited high bandwidth connections and at no point are they told they can't actually use the service they're paying for. What's unreasonable is cutting off paying consumers and suing streaming services
when the company's dumb business model starts failing because of their own invalid assumptions. If oversubscribing is such a problem, they should stop doing it instead of blaming consumers for overusing their low capacity network.

Written policies are just another way to creak that door into a culture-fitting exclusion. Often done much more heavy handedly, as that second hypothetical line of yours is as often a lie.

I get the desire to make things more objective, but as long as people are involved, it is going to be near impossible to separate that aspect from things without trouncing on people that are otherwise invisible to the ones writing the rules.
I'm not sure if that's the case legally. Is windows 11 same as windows 10, since both are a type of windows released by the same company. Let's say there's a security feature that works the same in both versions. But in windows 11 it was certified to work. I don't think you could sue effectively it failed in your installation of windows 10. MS could just say you should had no expectation for it to work because it wasn't certified to work at that time when you purchased your product.
In fact the lack of certification necessarily implies that you used the feature at your own risk, and take full liability
Assume for the purpose every single one of the ~600 is old. Same outcome. Indeed leaving them in, according to your own source makes vaccines look worse than they are! Given how the large sample size etc is I am more than comfortable taking the UK unstratified data and clncluding the vaccines are effective.

> Because of age confounding, it is crucial to stratify by age groups, and further to remove children from the <60yr group; otherwise Simpson's paradox makes vaccines look like they are not effective in protecting against COVID-19 deaths at all.
Again, what are normal ICU levels?

As far as I'm aware, ICU staffing is modified to achieve close to 100% capacity at all times with minimal spare beds, whether pre-Covid or post-Covid. If this is the case, then there's no scenario possible, regardless of what happens with Covid, where hospitals report anything but "few ICU beds are available".

That is the logical conclusion of the institutions, since they are basically crypto banks. However the underlying coins are very different from the underlying asset in a bank, even if their use cases haven't come to fruition and the most common use case is speculation. The use cases that currently exist and are important, though probably not to users in this forum, are borderless transference and the ability to truly own your assets without a governing body or third party institution able to touch them. A significant portion of the world either: lacks institutional banking or is under an authoritarian / corrupt government that could seize their assets just because. Which means the current use cases are incredibly valuable to those individuals. For most users here coins are probably a novelty used for speculation or asset diversification.
What countries? Show me the data.

Edit: Deleting most of my post since Sweden does not track hospitalizations, only ICU admissions so I compared incorrectly. Here is the graph for ICU, judge for yoruselves if there are any with a 1/10 of Sweden's numbers.

This isn't completely unlike a deed to a house. People have conned folks out of their deeds to properties, and sometimes the transaction is upheld and the bad actor gets to move into a house, and sometimes the transaction is recognized as invalid, and nobody gets kicked out of a house they've paid for.
I haven't been able to verify these sort of claims any more than I've been able to speculate it was blanket telco Letters-of-Authorization (LoAs) [0][1] or classic SIM swaps that resulted in the account takeovers. I'm not claiming you're wrong, but given the timing of the LoA fraud and the attacks, it seemed likely to me that this was not an actual web vulnerability.

What makes you believe a specific exploit like that existed against Coinbase's 2FA? And if it existed, then why wasn't that caught in a routine pentest?

So the problem is no accountability in an industry that has little or no accountability to the public.

That's part of what inspired the Arab Spring!

I dropped WF for a credit union as soon as I became aware of their corruption, deception, and mistreatment of their customers. NCUA provides similar if not identical coverage, and with the CU, the entire institution feels less user-hostile.
It's a bit of a kludge, but I can accomplish this on my phone (Android) by enabling "Do not disturb", "Allow exceptions", "Phone calls + Messages", and setting "Calls and messages from" to "Contacts only".

I'm under the impression that it's also possible to replace the dialer/call app with one that can detect "probable spam", and at least one such replacement can likely do custom ringtones or disable ringing for such spam.
The easiest way to prevent sim swap attacks is to use Google Voice. Google has no customer service, so there isn't anyone you can call up and con.

> if the argument is something like "emissions are only higher in rural areas because rural residents are more likely to own cars because they're wealthier", that doesn't really refute the notion that rural is worse for the planet, it just means that poor people can't afford rural lives

They don't clearly state their argument, so maybe I'm wrong here, but I'm pretty sure they're arguing an inverse correlation. IE: Urban areas produce less because urbanites are on the whole a wealthier population.
I think what that twitter thread points out is that #2 is harder and less common in crypto (for better or worse) in the current state. What would be a trivial correction in the normal system isn't here.

There are also a lot more ways for regular people to reverse transactions, but I take your point about how hard it is to reverse wires to scammers.

I'm still pretty bullish on DeFi.

> banks of cell phones

This will cut down on spam calls considerably. Right now callers spoof their phone number each phone call. Like this:

Call 1: 555-1212

Call 2: 555-1213

Call 3: 555-1214

Under the new system adding the spam number to a blacklist will actually result in those calls being blocked as they will change far less frequently. It's not perfect but it will largely accomplish what you say here, as callers will have to buy new sim cards and swap them out in order to avoid blocklists.
Now we need a way to get these pills safely to someone’s door in less than 24 hours. If you call your doctor just when you’re developing Covid symptoms, he should be able to get a regimen of these pills delivered to you on the same day. Without that, they’re not only pointless but will seem ineffective.

Today I learned that up until the 90s, the general populous accepted global warming as scientific fact. At that point, numerous studies dating back to the 50s had confirmed the effect, and there was mostly bipartisan support for environment preserving legislation.

So oil companies started media propaganda efforts specifically trying to change the public opinion on the matter, calling it "just a theory":

It is little known how some animal agriculture systems can be highly sustainable.

My wife teaches people to ride horses and we feed back the manure on our hay fields and other pastures. This builds soil so we get a much better crop than we did when we started out.

Contrast that to many ‘plant based’ systems that destroy the soil and survive only because of massive inputs of fossil fuel based fertilizer.

I think the argument of OP would be that this wouldn't be a bug, because Idris has proved increasing order, which means that if the function allowed duplicate that could result in non-increasing order Idris type checker would have told you your function is incorrect.

Basically, the proof is the spec, and a bug is defined as "not behaving as defined by the spec".

And assuming Idris is itself bug free in its language implementation and type checker implementation and is powerful enough to prove your given spec, then OP says your function is guaranteed bug free.

The difference is that he defines bug as:

> When the function behaves outside what Idris has proven.

While I think most people define a bug as:

> Doesn't do what it should have to provide the correct intended user behavior.

There aren't any first-world countries using ivermectin to treat or prevent the spread of COVID.

Because ivermectin is roundworm poison, not an antiviral. The countries were desperate to try ANYTHING, and it was the best they could get their hands on at the time. They were prompted to action because ivermectin affected COVID in lab experiments, not in actual cases, and the result of the use in those countries were that ICUs were inundated by people who were taking said poison.

What they should be doing, is to subsidise YubiKeys to their high-value customers.

Not just to lock down the logins to Coinbase, but to also secure their customers' email, Twitter accounts, and as many other online systems as would support hardware backed WebAuthn. Hell, PokerStars did this with RSA tokens back in 2008 so it's not like it's a new idea.
