I love how a Biogen conference was responsible for one of the biggest initial outbreaks of Covid, and now every senior will be responsible for paying $20 more per month for a drug of theirs that has no clinical efficacy whatsoever.

Twitter clamped down on developers in the past by limiting or suspending access.

Building in someone else's garden is usually not without risk. I'd be wary, especially with a company that waffles on the issue as much as Twitter does.

What's to say they don't shutter access again just as soon as they get the growth metrics they want?
While it could be interesting, it's kind of expensive to have servers in all of those countries globally, and manage all that required software. So pre-made services like Durable Objects make it much more affordable.
I didn’t see hydroelectric power mentioned in a quick skim. Perhaps I missed it?

There’s not enough hydroelectric power, but wind and solar can be thought of as a way of conserving it for when it’s most needed. It might be interesting to see how the numbers work out if the Pacific Northwest is included.
Yes, but only at the extreme details (distinguishing between very similar wines). There is no chance to confuse anyone between, say, a sweet white wine and a dry red wine (to take the other kind of extreme).
Somewhat related: Why is it that the US needs middle-men to negotiate prices - that is, why can't Medicare just negotiate the prices themselves?

If I understand it right, that's what other countries do. Countries with universal healthcare systems are basically the only buyer, and can drive a hard bargain. Yet the US needs for-profit middle-men, that can't seem to get a price as good other countries...but yet they're supposed to perform better than Medicare? Doesn't make any sense (to an outsider)
You are asking for an incredibly high amount of welfare, essentially "everyone else in society should pay me for 5 years because I chose to have a kid". I'm choosing to have a kid too, but I'm taking the personal responsibility path of saving and paying for it on my own. Perhaps there is some middleground, but 5 years is absolutely absurd.
I don’t think it was mentioned in the article, but I wonder if the team has a mechanism to call an audible. And if so, does it have a unique name?
For higher-security situations, ECC memory with higher overhead (more spare bits, and an ECC algorithm which made good use of them).

A DRAM-savvy OS might allocate memory so as to greatly reduce "critical data right next to untrusted data" situations.

CPU's which noticed write-heavy program behavior (and alerted the OS) would be interesting...but foolproof implementation could prove difficult.

Security doesn’t scale at a price point that private sector companies could typically afford.

Perhaps we fail at pricing security into the value of a company, or maybe that’s what risk appetite is about.

Subverting expectations also has larger downsides. A competently-made movie that just isn't that good is simply a boring movie that looks pretty. A subversion that goes wrong subverts your expectation of watching a good movie with one of watching an incoherent movie.

That is completely false. They didn't reclassify any deaths.

The report you are referring to merely said that 3% percent of COVID deaths in the country had no preexisting conditions or comorbidities. Which also means that 4,000 of the more than 130k deaths were relatively young and in good health.

> Numpy is just wrappers for BLAS and LAPACK.

Certainly not. I encourage you to have a look at the API of BLAS/LAPACK to perform basic operationa. And that just scratches the surface.
It encodes it into the type system at the function signature level. Optional[Int] is an Int with a None, so if you pass this type into f(x: Int) you get a type error because f(x: Int) is a function that deals with Ints, not Optional[Int]. So you get a degree of safety here.

As I mentioned this safety does not usually extend to the function definition. I stated that it can though (and it is in haskell and rust), and this is usually done through a feature called pattern matching. Pattern matching is available in python 3.10 but I'm not sure whether exhaustive type checking on pattern matching by external type checkers is available yet.
"America's the only county that doesn't offer parental leave, it's not radical to say this leads to poor outcomes."

You mean paid parental leave? You should be able to take unpaid parental leave under FMLA for medical reasons.

America is not the only country. It depends on if you mean developed country or some other missing adjective. Also, you said parental leave. Many countries only offer maturity leave, and not parental leave (maturnity + paternity). These also have other impacts/reasons than the medical point the original article makes.

I'm not sure why you linked that article. Maturnity leave refers to post delivery. Pre delivery would be prenatal leave, which isn't discussed here. They do discuss some medical leave here, which brings me back to the point about not making this solely about maturnity leave, and that the original article is more about medical side and not the other aspects of parental leave.

>If you don’t use a service, it typically will have very little traffic if any at all.

Like I said this was all from the last 3 hours and I haven't used any of those services listed. It's also missing the point a bit, I'm not bandwidth poor on a 3G connection trying to save my datacap.

I don't want apple turning my laptop into a thinclient for their cloud systems. I don't want telemetry and meta data going to them every ~30 seconds (the little snitch icon flashes a red X every time something is blocked, it's on a per minute basis).

Of all those services I use calendarsync. I miss having airdrop a little bit but everything else I don't need.

Also, the way you've phrased some of those, especially the notarisation

> getting updated security signatures

is a bit disingenuous when there's a massive privacy implication in that it allows apple to know every single application I run on my computer.

Most Apple users wouldn't agree to that if you stuck it in their face and the fact that it breaks the OS in subtle ways is a user hostile position to argue from. Hence why I'm giving up my Apple addicition.
This is why tools like valgrind are indispensable. You can run your target process through your test suite with valgrind (or apple’s Instruments) and it’ll tell you if any memory leaked. Even if it’s just a few bytes.
Right, like is there a RO system that provides tap water for drinking, and returns the "waste" to your hot water heater for everything else?

This is absurd. Try synchronizing a GB of data between two devices in the same room on an ADSL. If they (stupidly) bounce through an external server it might take an hour.

The fact is that nearly every smartphone or tablet in the last 5 years, even $80 discount models, could run the latest Android. Or full Linux desktop.

They're discarded by the millions each year for being stuck on some old useless software version. Updates for a three year old phone is more than some do. I think it suggests the manufacturers have no intention of it being used more than a year or two out.
First of all I said "goverments" so I don't meant he USA one n particular, Tesla made a lot of money from other goverments too.

Second, the US government from my understanding is doing an pretty open bidding, so SpaceX benefited from that, the reason no SpaceX appeared before is not something I can speculate , maybe there was a need for a new generation of people , or maybe we needed IT to evolve, I am not sure.

I also have no idea if SpaceX would ahve existed if they could not have benefited until now and from now on on government contracts.

Also let's not pretend to forget that SpaceX internet stuff is based on government research/invention. No government no roads for Tesla to run on, no Internet for Starlink to exist.
Josh CTO of Mailgun here - In this example, there is no actual sharing of domain reputation with other customers. Most inbox providers base reputation on the DKIM domain, which in this case is "sandbox.mgsend.net" not the header from address.

Each message is uniquely signed by the sending domain belonging to the account owner, meaning that the domain reputation cannot be borrowed/shared between customers.

OKRs masquerade as strategy
“ From a total of 2100 studies identified, 57 studies with 250 351 survivors of COVID-19 met inclusion criteria. The mean (SD) age of survivors was 54.4 (8.9) years, 140 196 (56%) were male, and 197 777 (79%) were hospitalized during acute COVID-19.”

If I am understanding that correctly, 79% of the 250,000 people included in the various studies were hospitalised. Of those 250k, around 50% developed longer lasting problems. However, it seems to me that the subjects in the study have a strong bias towards those who were hospitalised. The hospitalisation rate of 79% is much higher than the rate of hospitalisation for all people contracting COVID-19.

In reality, we don’t know the percentage of all “survivors of COVID-19” with long lasting complications, from the data presented in this study.
You are technically correct; the best kind of correct. Writing as if they were changes is a little sloppy, though convenient.

FDA doesn’t approve based on the projected costs to the system. That’s the underlying problem. There is no political mechanism to say “no, this treatment won’t be covered by medicare.” Further, such a mechanism would be wildly unpopular with your average voter. Nobody wants to deny their grandmas coverage to anything, and it’s a huge burden on the system and contributor to inflation.
I'm genuinely curious how this happens. It seems impossible without a) extreme malice and/or b) extreme incompetence. Is there really a project manager authorized to say "make this checkbox a no-op and damn the ensuing anti-trust case"? Or, if it's a simple bug, did the programmer who implemented this really ship it without anyone even testing it once?
A chatbot as an interface to NLP + searching a comprehensive FAQ ==> yes please! So basically improve on Google search by adding your own ontology.

But otherwise, please no. Who ever liked calling a service and click 1, 1, 9, ... ? Then why apply it to the web?

Unfortunately most pay big money to chatbots but they don't want to invest anything into building an FAQ. Mind-blowing. In 9/10 cases, I game the bot to take me to "special case, need to contact human support" as soon as possible. Because that's what many do - hide support behind the chatbot, no phone, no email, no contact form being made public...

> YAML, used sparingly, without too much complexity, is fine

It's wishful thinking because the complexity is inherent, unfortunately. That's analogue to saying "programmers should not write bugs". Humans are fallible and error prone, it's not going to happen unless a language is restricted in such a way that a category of bugs is not possible by design. However, YAML's design is sprawling, so despite best intentions people will run into the problems caused by the complexity. Possible ways out are restrictions of the design (e.g. Strict YAML) or whole replacements (e.g. NestedText).

> There are a few gotchas that are easy to catch with validations.

Does this actually exist? If not, who's writing the code for these validations? How can we make sure everyone who needs to use them is using them?

To expand upon this a little, it's worth noting that the book and the code are licensed separately and differently.
It's the background details that bring out the love. A paint-by-numbers movie can stick because of the visceral knowledge that the production team cared about what they were making, even when the story beats are highly formulaic. On a rewatch, it becomes apparent that there's more going on than the bog-standard storyline presented by the leads.
Honestly the majority of it is Harvard selecting who they know will be rich, famous, or both. I know a girl who got into Harvard but her parents couldn't afford to send her (this was before they ramped up their financial aid), she went to state school instead, won a Marshall Scholarship, and was a tenured professor at Harvard by her early 30s.

> Sure, just that it's not even remotely price competitive despite decades of R&D and subsidies

There are rather clear signs [0] of political interference in the price of nuclear. It might be the only technology I've ever seen where the learning curve suddenly inverted.

The demand isn't even that we have to go nuclear at all costs, it is just ... if the global warming people are serious then a Fukushima every 40 years is nothing and we should be letting cheap nuclear (the safest, cleanest, most reliable form of energy we know of) take over. Instead it is being held to impossible safety standards and we're using coal (basically the least safe, most polluting form of energy we know about). This is madness.

Renewables are acceptable to me personally now the price has come down, but it is hard to overlook that places that go renewable all end up in the headlines for an energy crisis a few years later. Wind power is cheap but it isn't reliable.

That's a good point. 500 gigawatts over 15 megameters gives 20kw/m of local heat to deal with, which sounds kind of yikes.. but then again a pool heater draws 5kw. Seems clear the biggest effect will be on the seabed-- but that's already true because you gotta drop the cable. I reckon the cable itself, and its underwater infrastructure, might have more impact than the heat it generates. Another consideration is that there have always been heat sources in the deep ocean.

Alright, I'm game. Assuming that you truly have to pick 2:

We very simply must go towards clean/carbon-free as much as we can, so that's my #1 pick.

It must be economically viable for it to, you know, actually happen, so that's #2.

Pretty easy then, actually: our energy sources must be dependent on weather. Sucks, but it is what it is. The choice is even easier when you think about the fact that going this route is with the purpose of avoiding even more extreme/unpredictable weather. If we want stable weather, we must go with energy sources that are dependent on weather; the weather being stable is important to using sources that are dependent on weather.

Bottom line: lean hard into solar and wind, and go really hard into better energy storage tech.
People don't switch between ten just-installed apps in under a minute. They do that all the time on the Web. There's more focus on what you're doing when you open an app for the first time, and installing the app in the first place is a strong signal that you're open to entertaining requests to expand permissions, like to receive push notifications. Browsing to a website is something people do on a whim while barely paying attention, which they don't consider any kind of commitment at all, and they're used to sites going away entirely when they close the tab, not sticking around because they clicked "allow" on a dialog that they don't even remember because the action didn't rise to the level of conscious thought, since the web bombards them with "allow/deny" boxes all day long, where "allow" is just the thing that consistently makes the dialog go away the fastest so they can get on with looking at the site.

Web notifications are not comparable to app push.
On average in the US, 1 in 2 bankruptcies are due to medical debt. I think it's disingenuous to include the "biggest costs of life" and omit what is arguably the largest for an american citizen.

3000 gross is more like 2-25 net depending on the state. I haven't been in many industries where an employer is going to be covering healthcare costs for an $18/hr employee. So for a family of 3, that's another $1,000 a month for insurance.
