IANAD and don't have a great source for this, but I've both heard and read about some variety of "professional code" or "best practices" where MDs are expected to leave their personal convictions aside when deciding and prioritizing who gets what care.

I may personally agree with the exact situation you describe, but relying on "common sense" breaks fast at scale. If the doctor(s) making the call are devout adherents of some religious sect, would you prefer that they prioritize the drunken driver above the pregnant woman who needs an abortion of the child that was conceived out of bedlock?

Or denying care to the heroin addict ODing?

IMO, completely removing moral judgment from the medical evaluation process is a net positive.

This doesn't have to mean "first come, first serve", and I assume it doesn't in most places.

There are some non-trivial changes between the draft standards and the final ISO 8601:2019-1 standard, one of which relates to making the use of T stricter, and the mentioned provision was removed.

Regardless, ISO 8601 has generally discouraged using spaces within expressions. From ISO 8601:2004, section 3.4.1:

> Unless explicitly allowed by this International Standard the character "space" shall not be used in the representations.

Similarly, from ISO 8601:2019-1, section 3.2.1:

> The character "space" shall not be used in the expressions.

However, through looser interpretation of the standard, "2021-10-24 11:02:03Z" could be allowed if treated as a date representation followed by a space followed by a time representation (note that the formal time representation in ISO 8601:2019-1 is T11:02:03Z, but it allows omission of T for extended format as per 5.3.5).
I think there is a difference between team building through shared struggle (like new soldiers going through boot camp) and what hr comes up with as “team building activities” in the office after they went on Pinterest and searched for “team building ice breakers for meetings”.

At my workplace they came up with employee appreciation day. They make a slightly better lunch and they clap for you when you walk into the cafeteria. I much rather be allowed to leave 30 min earlier.

While I understand the pipeline where those ideas come from (management appoints one poor soul to quickly come up with something that looks fun on paper, is cheap, quick and doesn’t allow for any possibility of rule breaking), they don’t really help me bond with anyone.

What does help me bond is being part of a team with a great leader that makes everyone want to push in the same direction and makes us a unit. For that you need solid hiring that takes into consideration what team the to-be-hired person is going to be working with at a social level

I strongly desire a nazi-free WWW, yet i find that relying on the State to fight against nazism (despite most state apparatuses across the planet being filled with actual nazis) has more downsides than upsides.

Needing to build more houses is a myth pushed forward by nimbys and developers.

You can achieve the same and more by releasing unused housing back to market instead of sitting idle for speculative reasons.

Increasing property taxes seems like a first viable solution, but it has drawbacks. It can apparently br avoided in some cases and they wouldn't affect owners of empty lots or derelict ruins that need the release back to market the most.

This is solved by a tax on land value, not on propery value. Empty unused lots would get a massive tax, regardless of if there is a skyscraper on it or it is an empty space. High rise properties wouldn't get impacted much because the same tax would be amortized across many units. Properties outside of cities wouldn't get affected much, because land values outside of cities are low.

Land value tax is a mechanically brutally simple and effective solution to the problem of congestion in city centres. Politically completely infeasible, because if there is someone fighting tooth and nail against such policies, it is the nimbys who inherited at the right time - modern day aristocracy.

> I don't think that study disproves my statement, the study didn't/couldn't see viral load or infectiousness.

They were using a measure called Ct cutoff, which (if used that way) is a crude measure of viral load, as the CDC points out in its own literature[1]:

> Since Ct values can vary based on many factors, it is not a good indicator of how infectious a person is or how much virus is present in a person (known as viral load).

However, it also points out in the sentence prior:

> It is still unknown how much virus is needed to transmit the virus from person-to-person and cause new infections.

What no longer needs to be ascertained is how this data has been interpreted by the experts, which is that the vaccines do not confer much, if any, advantage against transmission. There was the hope before the vaccines came out that they might but it was pointed out repeatedly that it would be unlikely given the nature of coronaviruses, and that has come to be the case.

> if hospitals are no longer overwhelmed (since people aren't getting very sick and dying) then the governments will probably drop restrictions

I hate to repeat myself, but the examples of Israel and the UK should also remind you that it is mere hope you are expressing, not anything borne out by experience. I hope you are right but my experience of people and how loathe they are to relinquish power - especially people who seek it, like politicians - tempers that somewhat.

Why does that matter?

That's like saying my backyard vegetable garden will not scale to feed the entire street, or that the new M1 MacBook Pro won't scale to train the Tesla AI.

Just because something doesn't scale it doesn't mean it isn't a great thing worthy of perusing & learning from.

Having to use 24 cores to get to 1/4th of the performance of a single threaded C# application seems particularly awful.

Especially as C# is a relatively pleasant language to use.

It doesn't matter how good threading in clojure is if you don't even need to use it to beat clojure on another language (also: great scaling is pointless if you start so far behind).

They are stuck in a tricky situation. To admit they have responsibility means they should have set up code of conduct with manageable moderation from the outset (or at least not have open public pages).

Alternatively, would you trust Facebook to be the arbiter of what is harmful to the public? Do you think they would hold to data and evidence, or political consensus and their own self-interest?

I think Facebook has well and truly jumped the shark on morality or decency, they've had many opportunities to respond earlier.

If this becomes too big of a deal then Google will just shut down Google Ads to other sites, or spin it out as a separate entity. It doesn't make them that much money compared to just running ads on their own site, and nobody can claim they are anti-competitive in a marketplace that only serves ads for their own sites.

>The existing drivers are compatible with Win11 and haven't been blocked by Microsoft yet... The large majority of changes by Microsoft are limited to restricting the Windows API with signature checks that block competitors software (e.g. CreateWindowInBand, NtQuerySystemInformation, NtQueryInformationProcess to name a few) rather than directly targeting the drivers themselves.

>The signature checks added to those functions and classes only block third-parties and this includes signed binaries. We won't be able to implement the same functionality as Task Manager and Process Explorer because of those Microsoft-only signature checks even after we sort out the submission issue.

>Always-on-top, Auto-elevation, DPS statistics, Default taskmgr application preferences (Microsoft hardcoded taskmgr.exe blocking competitors), GPU statistics (deliberately broken on Win10 and Win11 recently) and the DirectUI framework are some examples of features that I want to implement and are currently implemented by Task Manager but are Microsoft-only signature restricted while newer more advanced security like PPL that we desperately need are also Microsoft-only signature restricted.

>The only certificate allowed to use these and other functionality is now limited to Microsoft Windows certificates - the same certificates used with Task Manager and Process Explorer - while SAC has even more powerful functionality than anything else (including Process Hacker) with absolutely no security whatsoever.

So, basically, for some reason, Microsoft wants to make it very hard for you to see whats running on your computer...
Clojure's power is not in its ability to be fast.

Immutability has a price and it's a price we're consciously paying. JVM also has a performance cost, but it's well worth paying due to the wins of running on a virtual machine.

For most boiler-plate tasks, especially where I/O is involved, Clojure is fast enough (eg. handling HTTP requests or talking to a database).

The true power of Clojure, in my opinion, is in how it allows you to think about problems; that machines produce side effects by interpreting a data structure, that the program is one transformation of the input data structure to the target data structure for the desired side effect.
You don't think in terms of imaginary objects 'doing' things, you think about the input data structure and how the output data structure should look like, such that if fed to a library function, the desired side effect will occur (eg. the text will be printed or the robot arm will rise).

This mode of thinking about problems is closer to how machines actually work on a higher level and amusingly, 'close to the metal' C++, offers abstractions which take the writer into a fairy tale of class hierarchies, methods that 'do' things to other things, inserting, deleting, mutating everything all over the place. Because that's efficient and fast (and dangerous).
But it's also focused a lot on telling the machine 'how' to run; while coincidentally making it do 'what' you want it to do.
As a wizard who can put that orchestra with swords and knifes in motion without too much blood spilling on the floors, you can't but feel proud to have achieved it.

Data in -> data out. That's Clojure's way of thinking.

It's a lot simpler way of looking at the problem and maybe makes the `->` feel a bit insignificant and maybe not that important in most cases, as long as it produces the correct output.

The biggest performance hit will be choosing the wrong data structure for solving the problem in a functional way. If that's done correctly, Clojure does offer some tools for squeezing a bit more out of performance critical pieces of code (the articles covers some).
Those should be a couple of functions in all your code base; for the boilerplate and domain logic or code involving non realtime I/O, it doesn't matter that much.

If performance is a big concern and you end up writing imperative code in Clojure, I think you'll be better off writing the bits in Java or choose a different language, which is better designed for that purpose.
Article is total garbage, the reasons seem emotional and speculative.

First, your theory 3 leads to the 'increase' in resignations. Last year any job you could hold was a port in a storm. This year people resumed shopping around for the best job.

As for the pay raises, I think it's because tech faired better during the pandemic than other industries. In general, the pandemic was a wealth-consolidating event and tech fared well.
In my view what's best is to always pass around utc but include the Z to make it explicit that's what you're doing. It's a very succinct way to represent that and can be very valuable to disambiguate so I think it's worth the extra character.

So it seems to me the most pressing issue is still creating a viable alternative to Google Search. I've tried to use Duck Duck Go and even Bing in the past but I've just not found the quality of the results to be nearly the same.

However - recently I've found G Search is getting steadily worse. They've made UX changes that make it harder to view cached pages, and it seems to ignore search operators frequently.

This is the biggest foothold to their dominance. YouTube, Gmail, Maps and everything else is in a supporting role to this core product.

Who is actively working on this and what is proving so challenging? What is stopping us from creating a viable Google clone, with the same level of high quality results?
3) is true. It took some time for some companies to catch up with their hiring processes, so it was harder to change jobs for a while.

4) is true. Now companies have to compete a lot more for our labor.

5) is true. It also leads to a corollary: our workload has gone up since our services are in greater demand.

There's also the point that inflation is on the rise, despite what the fed says. We can see that housing prices are up 50% since the start of the pandemic in many areas. We can see that everything we buy has gone up by 20%. You have to pay a 75% surcharge to get a new graphics card. The inflation in these major sectors makes it feel like our salaries and yearly increases are smaller. Additionally, as the market has gotten more competitive (for labor), industry wages have gone up.
> The day Google stops buying Firefox's ad space, Mozilla has hundreds of alternative options for generating revenue.

Save you a right click: Edward Gibbon was an 18th century English historian who wrote a series of books called "The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" . Parent suggests that said book was Asimov's inspiration for the fall of the Galactic Empire at the beginning of the Foundation series.
Dune is "feudalism in Space", and Foundation is "The decline and fall of the Roman Empire, in space".
