>>Right, but I hope you also acknowledge that the US does not have very many flexible, customizable offerings competing in healthy markets?

The implication here is that the health market in the US is a free market?

I will agree with your statement,however it seems you are attempting to use to show how markets can fail, US Health is one of, if not the most encumbered market with regulations there is. To claim it is anything resembling a "Free market" is factually incorrect.

>There is barely a US industry left that isn't completely captured by 2-5 corporations.

I dont believe this to be the case, but even it was why do you believe that happened? I hope you do not believe or imply that it is result of market forces that cause this consolidation. You would be wrong if that is your belief. Consolidation and monopolization is a direct result of regulation not market forces

Corporations LOVE government regulations, they write most of them, as it prevents competition.
I found it interesting that Reddit supports

```
triple backtick-style code blocks
```

and `inline code`, but HN doesn't.

This is particularly interesting because Reddit has less of a reason to support those than HN does. Code-related markdown generally don't see a lot of use outside of programming subreddits.
If they can trigger a "video fired" message in the analytics, that's one more "Person viewed our video" they can show to a potential advertiser. That's all it's about, not the end user's experience.
Amazon is such a remarkable company. I may have underestimated their long-term prospects. I've been skeptical they would be able to maintain a monopoly for a few decades, but even without Jeff Bezos at the helm, they got enough foresight to continue to expand their operations nonstop.

Color me completely impressed.
Pre-industrial western diet cold stored food was either salted (meat), fermented (cabbage, cheese) or alive (fruit, root vegetables, potatoes)...so, it's possible there was completely different microbiology than in modern processed food.
Anecdotally Kefir seems to work surprisingly well. A variety of people have reported it solving IBS and it is definitely improving mine and has widened the foods I can eat. I recommend Kefir quite highly, it does seems to work and I noticed the positive effect within a week.

I use the grains in full fat milk, getting raw milk is ideal but isn't easy and don't usually bother. The process works fine in pasteurized milk anyway. I was also lactose intolerant before I took the Kefir and it didn't upset it thankfully, it actually cured it.

The main thing to really be aware of is to start slowly with a few tablespoons rather than gulping down all 250ml of your first few batches, it can be quite intense on the system until you adapt to it.

Thank you for quoting these. I don't really like a quest for ideological purity, but this shows that both times and people have ideological nuance.
I don’t think the GP was arguing that “evolution cares”. Rather, I think they were saying that we evolved as part of a system that moved at a certain speed. Changes to that system were reflected as part of the evolutionary feedback mechanism. Now, however, we’re changing the system so fast, evolution has no hope of keeping up.
you can always build it yourself. But that's turning out to be non-trivial
> - Imagine you have a monolith that mostly talks to the database. You have a primary with multiple read replicas. How are you going to take advantage of millions of async tasks if your IO concurrency ends up being caped at a couple of thousand database connections?

You use a connection pool and multiplex queries over a few persistent connections. This problem exists regardless of whether you use async or thread-per-client. Process per client (i.e. PHP CGI) requires an external connection pool like pgpool.

> - The second question is: even if you can have a million requests on flight do you really want to have such a large blast radius on a single server?

What's the alternative? When there's a billion connections going through round robin DNS to a thousand load balancers and another hundred million going to backups on failover, everyone's going to have to handle that level of traffic. The scale of the internet is huge and it only just barely works because many services (like DNS, LBs, and databases + their read replicas) can operate at that kind of scale.

The people solving these kinds of hard problems have a lot of money that ends up sloshing around via open source github projects, thus influencing the wider engineering community. Many naturally gravitate towards these approaches because they are well tested and usually guaranteed overkill, right in that sweet spot between cover-my-ass and proven-but-shiny. In reality, async is one of those "if you have to ask, you [probably] don't need it" kind of things.
Nah, another shitcoin that is run as a startup with a large premine.
I signed away all IP rights to Teledyne (my second job) in 1980. I've worked for three companies since then, and never had to sign anything like that. I'm pretty sure it's unenforceable, but the thing I signed basically said that anything I invent from that point forward, even after leaving Teledyne, would belong to them.
Are there people out there that actually engage with the auto-playing videos, or the “articles you should also read” callouts forced between every other paragraph? There must be right?

I know no-one likes them, but there must be some increase in engagement somewhere that causes the marketing folks to keep pushing these things.

Personally I find it makes the articles very hard to read without reader mode. Sites owned by G/O Media (The Onion, Kotaku) are particularly egregious. On mobile you can typically only get about 20-30 words of the article on screen at any one time (that’s an exaggeration, but not much of one).
So is the domain you end up going to a tailscale subdomain or something? And that allows you to hit your home computer that's running the Guacamole server?

How did you conduct your enteral nutrition? As far as I know, it's not common practice to begin a course of enteral feeding for anything other than a few specific circumstances. I've also heard that it decreases the number of bacterial species that the gut houses from thousands to just several hundred; which can have health impacts that we don't yet fully understand. Can you talk more about this?
None. It didn't affect the number of miners.
They also have 40x less homicides, which might explain the difference in police violence.
It may sound absurd, but it really isn't. Hedonistic choice, i.e. to "do what you want" is not perceived as freedom but as anxiety. Someone who lives alone in his flat and works 20 different gig jobs and shoots heroin whenever he wants is in that superficial sense 'free', but in reality the opposite is the case, he's subject to basically just instinct, which is the worst form of oppression, ask any addict.

Freedom or liberty in a more authentic, humanistic sense, also in the same way religious people understand it (no coincidence that Islam literally translates to 'submission' (to god)) grounds you in reason, reality and requires that understanding what legitimate authority is like. Only from that point can you actually start to make genuinely free decisions, you need to be set free from(!) a whole bunch of things first.

It's also btw why so many young people today, less coerced than ever before, don't feel free at all, just disoriented, and why they flock to political authoritarianism. The sort of relativism invited in by not properly understanding the relationship between authority and freedom has the ironical result of creating demand for some of the very worst forms of oppression.
That sounds great actually, they deliver mostly spam and already don’t serve all rural areas. Most banks have paperless options as well. It isn’t efficient and there is no way to opt out of spam, the loss of the public harm and needlessly cutting down trees sounds great!
Yes, but anyone with my SSH keys can connect with SSH.

> but give the user an illusion that what they’re saying is secure.

I don't trust any encryption system with my life or the nuclear launch code. But for casual privacy, the scheme I proposed is fine.

> I’m using your old key, the one I have

Then my system should bounce it back saying the key is invalid. Of course, if I change my key the email app should send a "new public key" email to my address book.
“In a 2020 study, she and colleagues found that the share of newly married couples living apart, but not because of discord, more than doubled to 13% in 2018 from 6% in 1980.”

It’s about four million couples in the US. Why? My hot take: it’s more socially acceptable and reduces the volatility and stress in these relationships that would normally cause a divorce (or prevent a marriage in the first place).

Here’s a great book on relationships that’ll provide more relevant depth: https://www.amazon.com/Science-Happily-Ever-After-Matters/dp...

Past statistics have shown that in the U.S. 50% percent of first marriages, 67% of second, and 73% of third marriages end in divorce btw.
Suggesting that there may be a causal link is entirely appropriate. It's a hypothesis, not a proof.

These come along periodically and I am all for them, but what is tricky is that ThreeJS carries on evolving and most die in the end.

Without some sort of ThreeJS test set it's not possible to for these implementations to keep up.

There are two Governments that claim to be China.

If you give recognition to one of those Governments (de facto or otherwise) you can expect repercussions from the other, depending on how useful to are to that particular Government of course.

This comment really made me chuckle. Well done =)
The question seems to be whether it is allowed to create what is effectively a competitor framework (on your own volition and without authorization from your employer, as in the case of MVIKotlin vs MVICore) under your own name (brand), potentially in your free time, but based on designs of an open-source framework managed/developed/maintained by your employer in employees' time.

And even if it is allowed, can your employer claim ownership on the basis that your work is derived from employer/company work.

However, I think this is unprecedented (I can't think of any similar cases regarding reclamation of IP), and we'd have to be actual lawyers to know the answer. I'm curious to see where this case will go.
No advice, but question: did you have people that aren’t into gaming and how did that work?
Tether is obviously the kind of business the government fundamentally doesn't like. Whether or not what they're doing violates any current laws doesn't matter, they are yet another Liberty Reserve enabling large scale money laundering.

Even in an imaginary world where Tether is a completely legitimate business not operating in violation of any existing laws, there would be no way for them to make government investigations go away within any reasonable timeframe.

It is simply ridiculous of you to suggest that we could expect the government to play fair when dealing with Tether.
If, like me, you think of op-amps and some National Instruments analog-to-digital converters when you think of Analog Devices, you might be wondering what they're doing writing Linux drivers. The short answer is they're acquiring IP: They've bought Linear Technology (which makes tons of PMIC devices) and Maxim Integrated, who make tons of specialized PMIC, analog, RTC, interface, and other chips.

The link above is a press release, the full list of devices is here:

https://wiki.analog.com/resources/tools-software/linux-drive...

Part numbers prefixed with "LTC" are from Linear Tech, part numbers prefixed with "MAX" are Maxim, part numbers prefixed with "AD" are Analog Devices. Part numbers prefixed with "DS" are from Dallas Semiconductor, which was bought by Maxim a long time ago.

As someone who typically uses these devices in much smaller embedded systems, it's nice to have these hardware abstraction layers listed in one place, instead of having to transcribe it from the datasheet.
Others are mature enough to control their emotions and react appropriately to the situation in a way that is most likely to accomplish what they want.

Most of my browsing is done on my TV via my Mac Mini connected to it.

The resolution is jack up to the lowest so I can easily see from the couch.

This is a fringe case as most people arent enjoying the Internet on their TV via a web browser and wireless mouse. Nevertheless those nuisance videos are the worst in my view on the TV ... take up the screen and there's no X button. Always just have to hit the back button quickly and not bother reading the site.
I'm surprised there isn't an extension for some kind of white-list only video stream content.

I too find these sites despicable. But usually, by the time the video play you've already been fighting some popup about joining, dismissed a browser native window saying this site is asking to send you notifications in the future, and GRDP @#$%^$%^& "we care about your privacy so here is a booklet about our privacy policy, in your face" with select all-of-which cookies you'd like to not, maybe (one time) receive in a game of dark patterns.

A friend I know used a good Ayurveda doctor in India, he basically has to eat a very bland diet and all his symptoms went away. In western medicine they said there was nothing they could do.

Edit: it eliminated his severe allergies and alleviated the symptoms of Crohn’s, so it seemed like there was more problems besides Crohns.
Most importantly, this is a hypothesis.

If you want to suggest a possible causal mechanism, then it's entirely appropriate to suggest that something causes something else with which it appears correlated.

It's not intended to be a proof of anything, just a reasonable and interesting proposal which highlights further lines of investigation.

Your charged your phone in your office? There, Gotcha! You used "company resources".

Believe it or not, lawyers will put arguments like these and the judge will accept those as valid reasons.

btw, I have a similar setup (I don't work on it during office time inside the office, though) with a minor difference. I vnc/ssh to my aws setup rather than my home. This way my laptop lives longer and wife doesn't bicker about electricity bills.
Yeah as a developer/programmer - I always have this feeling that I should go into all native code like using c++, d, f, rust, crystal, nim, v, zig ( this is my choice as of now ) - just to get that last drop of hardware juice. I was also looking into luajit as it can have easy ffi and near native performance.

I still think Java has a lot of value to bring or to learn and use for any programmer.

The ecosystem of libraries, software, tooling, cross platform nature and with the advent of GraalVM - Java is still very alive and capable !

As for JVM guys - Kotlin seems be an easy migration.

BTW - what do you think about dart ?
So in other words Analog Devices won't be stuffed to upstream their driver work.

Both kinda. There is nothing in my contract saying that what I create is owned by my employer. Likely because of mergers and because I wasn't hired for a developer role. If you're hired today the contract will absolutely say that they own everything.

And most of the stuff I write has a use outside of work, even if it's just for myself to learn something. So that's why in 90% of cases I start with making something open source and just use it at work.

So it's no different than me using someone elses open source code, it's just written by me, both on and off duty.
Increased demand for tether causes the exchange to rise as buyers compete against each other. Same as any other currency market. There's nothing special here. Tether needs to be issued to satisfy the demand and prevent the price of tether from rising against the dollar.

Look, Tether is in all likelihood a scam that will eventually collapse. I'm just saying there are multiple ways to explain what's happening. Those making the claims have the burden of proof. And that proof has been rather thin for my taste.
I use and like both, but I'd say they're quite different.

With trackers, you're editing a series of events. Events can be notes, parameter changes, or commands such as "reverse this sample's playing direction now" or "move the playhead for this sample to exactly 50%". Those are common tasks when making electronic beats.

With pianorolls, everything has to be represented as a note or an automation curve. The examples I gave above become difficult to represent properly, and are often done with plugin-specific keyswitches or velocity switches. You end up with a D sharp that actually means "change to sample number 2", that kind of thing. I don't really see how it's better for working with audio clips.
Author needs to DIY research and see that web3 is more than just btc and eth. I remember first programming for Android 2.3 back in the day, and the bubble of the late 90s. Now everyone and their kid has a smart phone (yes I know 1/3 of the world apparently isn't digitally connected, but that rate and global literacy are rising higher than they've ever been in history).

I am no fan of conning people out of their money, and there is plenty of that. But when people talk shit about web3 they sound as ignorant as people do when they talked shit about the early internet. You think gas fees are high? I remember when 56k was fast, and now look where we are (5G). Especially when a person, who I'd presume is intelligent enough to code and write such a piece, should know better: if you want to pick a fight with web3, at least pick a real enemy and not contribute to the FUD that web3 already has enough of.

Author should have looked into Dfinity's ICP as it is blockchain technology implemented not as a financial fad or for trendy hype (or even to try and resolve settlement layer solutions), but as a technological basis empowering developers to utilize this new technology we have (blockchain) to build and connect the world with it.

*On an unrelated note, I also find it disappointment that while developers are smart people, they haven't yet figured out how to organize collectively. Ironic and tragic that the gains of the social and labor rights movements translated into the luxury of wealth, time and opportunity for a generation of kids to grow up and have the ability to disrupt entire economic industries, but still are either self centered (or don't know any better) to a make difference in raising precedent the rest of the world deals with. How many software developers do you know that have been encouraged, maybe even unknowingly, to burnout (literally abusing their developer's own creative and productive desire) by their employers? And to think our (coders) best example of social progress is just Jobs (think different) or Musk (here's a hint: unless you plan on leaving the rest of the Earth behind, maybe focus on also improving the possible trajectories the rest of the world can get on board with).

Anyways.

That's like saying "my air conditioner doesn't affect the number of power plants in the city". It's only true for a very narrow view of cause-effect relationships.

The author paid Ethereum fees to run snake on the world's crappiest "global supercomputer" (as they like to call it). Those fees then support miners who consume energy and semiconductor resources that could have been spent on something more useful.
What purpose would somebody have to keep a significant percentage of their savings in USDC, which isn't subject to FDIC protections? The same logic would extend to anything else that is a similar digital cash-equivalent.

Given the purported 1:1 peg with the USD, there is no advantage to holding any cash savings in USD[C|T] form.

I find it hard to believe that Japan—with its well-known and historically powerful organized crime—is somehow immune from the possibility of drug manufacturing within its borders or smuggling from abroad. Yakuza's Wikipedia page confirms my suspicion that organized crime groups do both of those things in Japan.
"Someone shoots at someone somewhere else. It just a background noise. Why bother? You won't hear your bullet."

Sounds dramatic, but I heard that staying away from shootouts, or taking cover when you are too close can somehow magically increase your odds of not getting shot.
Not really. But the markets are not bad either. The bad things are all in the context. For these chains it's the insane energy inefficiency. (Storing the same thing over and over by itself makes little sense.)

And the whole "cryptobro culture" (which is the r/wallstreetbet culture, which is a nice essence of how fundamentally small markets are more about the humans who gamble/participate than about the economic properties of the products/stocks/currencies) is not simply bad/good either.

Modern monetary systems are not zero-sum. The central banks (and to a lesser degree the legislatures) can very effectively interact with the financial markets to achieve almost any desired outcome. Furthermore legislatures can and do tax whoever they want thanks to people with money having bank accounts.

The fact that now a lot of money is/was dumped into various blockchains doesn't mean much. It's just sitting here instead of sitting in a money market fund and doing nothing. Or instead of sitting in the central bank as required reserve.
unclekev is correct. I was diagnosed when I was ~12, over 40 years ago, and still have it.

But despite the fact that there's no cure, there is a lot you can do to control it:

* There are a lot more, better treatments today than back when I was a kid. Your GI doctor should be able to help with this.

* I believe that the largest aggravator is stress. Your boy really needs to learn to handle stress. In my case, I was rather a perfectionist, and had to learn to just let go of things that I couldn't directly fix myself. And of course the disease itself is a prime stressor, so he's got to come to terms with it.

* Different foods can be triggers for different people, due to individual differences plus the areas of the GI tract that are implicated. You need to experiment (keep a journal!) to figure out what these are. Don't fall for someone trying to sell a silver bullet like gluten-free. That may, indeed, help some people, but it won't others.
