1. They certainly might, that is why I'm typing all these questionmarks. What is the justification for why it might cause harm?

Overruling a doctor's prescribed treatment is a pretty extreme action. Drawing a rough parallel to abortion, I can see how they might choose not to carry Ivermectin and call it a day. But if they are selectively not filling prescriptions for political reasons, that is outrageous. There is no evidence that Ivermectin will cause patients harm. If they then took horse paste, there is evidence that the pharmacists stubbornness is causing more harm. It is better for people to take drugs under the supervision of a doctor.

3. You've had 2 goes at answering the question and you are struggling to even take a credible guess at how the prescription might have caused harm. And we know a doctor might think it is a fine thing to prescribe speculatively. But I think you have more problems than just that - it looks a lot like you're comfortable with the idea that a pharmacist can overrule a doctor and a patient based on gut feel and no evidence. Literally no evidence, given your responses so far. Are you really comfortable with that crazy stance? You don't think it is reasonable that patients trust and follow their doctors advice?

4. So in this specific case, do you think that the pharmacist suspected an interaction? Because I feel pretty confident you'd come off the worse if we check, but I'll admit I still haven't. The filling of Ivermectin scripts somehow became a political rather than a medical issue and this pharmacist is probably acting politically.

Hitler was reviled for everything he did, not just the Holocaust. The Allies didn't even know about the true extent of the Holocaust until they started liberating concentration camps in 1945.
Crypto should never be an investment. That is one of its primary flaws.

Currency is not an investment.

Yes, people trade currency, but for very small margins and as a hedge. When a currency swings 10,000x as crypto has done, it typically only happens in countries whose economies are going belly-up, see: Zibabwe.

If crypto is an investment, that means it is fluctuating dramatically, and if it is fluctuating dramatically, it isn't a currency (or it is a currency of a failed economy).

Don't believe me? Then I would expect you to be investing in stablecoins. If you only invest in Bitcoin and Ether and not stablecoins, then you are playing the stock market, because stablecoins are kept stable the same way countries can float their currenct to avoid wild swings in valuation.

I believe crypto will have a use in the future, but only with stablecoins, similar to commercial paper. As it is today, it is a scam for gambling and illegal activity, and a few people who want penalize their impoverished foreign relatives by sending them tokens that might be worth much less the day after they are sent (the cost of sending >US$10,000 is peanuts compared to the loss of value due to BTC/ETH fluctuations).
An apology from someone who has absolutely no ability to influence those decisions or policies isn't a sincere one, and is basically coerced under threat of getting in trouble when someone complains to their boss that they weren't "understanding enough".

Are you American by chance? I find that lots of Americans seem to want and even feel they're owed that kind of false sincerity/kindness from "low skill" workers they interact with.

Also I doubt it got to the point of someone telling OP to fuck off just for asking if there's an elevator, there has to be more to that story.

Also also there's no indication that the same business that owns the bar is the same business that owns the building, maybe they just rent a space on the bottom floor. So again, not the bartenders responsibility to apologize for something they have no control over, and possibly they're not even a representative of the same business that owns the building that chose not to include the accommodations.

In regards to accessibility accommodations, the only responsibility I can see to the bartender is telling people that there's not an elevator when they ask and he seems to have fulfilled that.
The article explains why lists aren’t just headings on top of paragraphs. For example, the list can be read in any order. There is no dependence between them.
Oh boy, I have too many questions. I'd appreciate any answers you're able/willing to give:

1. Do you have any plans to support the parsing of any additional metadata (e.g. semantic HTML, microformats, schema.org structured data, open graph, dublin core, etc)?

2. How do you plan to address duplicate content? Engines like Google and Bing filter out pages containing the same content, which is welcome due to the amount of syndication that occurs online. `rel="canonical"` is a start, but it alone is not enough.

3. With the ranking algorithm being open-source, is there a plan to address SEO spam that takes advantage of Alexandria's ranking algo? I know this was an issue for Gigablast, which is why some parts of the repo fell out of sync with the live engine.

4. What are some of your favorite search engines? Have you considered collaboration with any?
In the beforetimes if I went for a walk around the parking lot at lunch time I'd usually see a couple people napping in their cars (and of course burning gas to run the ac if it was summer).
qiskit, it's silly to compare the situation in russia with the democratic world and see some equivalency. Russia kills the opponents of the leaders, they actively subvert opponents in the sense of killing them with poison, put them in prison, shoot them down in the night.
No, I've seen SEO spam sites starting to take advantage of this trend by mentioning "reddit" on their pages.
Don’t discount the part of the equation that the WFH crowd is very vocal (as well as preachy). So much as suggesting you miss going to the office or seeing coworkers in person is met with an incredible amount of vitriol.

And I don’t mean suggesting being in the office is better. I mean expressing a personal opinion on the matter makes people defensive and hostile.
Fair, but A. what's a good non-Google or MSFT spreadsheet option, and B. that generally feels like worse UX than something like this.

This feels like a different flavor of "Why would anyone use Slack/Discord when you could just use IRC." You're not wrong, but there's something nice about purpose-built apps that have tools meant to solve specific problems instead of using a more generic tool to try to solve multiple specific problems. It's not as if I don't have other ways to solve these problems but having one nice neat tool that does a thing is useful.

A good example is an app I just re-installed for a trip - Splitwise. It's nice for splitting bills for various things among sub-sets of people on a trip together. It could absolutely be handled by a spreadsheet, but then someone would have to make that spreadsheet, and make sure it did the math right and had enough rows, and handled odd scenarios like non-even bills.
Understanding Why Resilience Faults in Microservice Applications Occur
I wish GCP had 2 things. A dumber key-value-store/mongodb-clone thing. Firebase has too much going on with it's confusing await getCollection().getDocument().getSnapshot().data() thing, the half documented transition to composition API, and I didn't need realtime.

Also a serverless postgres offering. Not even the fancy kind. There are some great free tiers outside of GCP. I have some projects where my usage would, if given true pay-as-you-go pricing, would fairly be between $0.10/month and $25/year. But GCP starts at $9/month for a postgres and a lot of competitors just leap straight to $25/month when leaving the free tier.
You’re giving the PR fluff that DDG has written. Even that is saying essentially what parent said. Most of those 400 sources are for the insane answers which are in the hundreds. Bing is by far their biggest index of results.

As that website I linked says, if the email looks suspicious but is technically valid, ask them "Are you sure you didn't mean this?", but let them choose what they put in.

However, if the address as given is definitely invalid, then you can reject it and explain why. You can offer suggestions here too if any seem reasonable.
So, your takeaway from the whole Ukraine episode is that it's perfectly fine for large countries to invade small countries for utterly farcical reasons?

To restate your idea: You want to invade a country at peace, kill its citizens and overthrow its government just to inconvenience some rich thugs.

Not a well-understood solution to me, but you may be interested in looking into FaunaDB. IIUC, It works by defining a GraphQL API and queries you want to use on it, and it will create the correct data structures behind the scenes to allow efficient queries of the form you've provided.

It is really new, though, from all I can tell.
I wonder if all money eventually return to the government, or leave the country. Since most trade is taxed by the government, in a recursive manner.

If by "money" it is meant value, then I wonder if money really can accumulate somewhere, since it is subject to devaluation.
Importantly, stocks represent cash flows.

Even stocks that don’t pay dividends can benefit from cash flows in the form of stock buybacks. Many big tech companies like Meta don’t pay dividends but do spend tens of billions on buybacks.

When a company buys its own stock, the value of the remaining shares appreciates. This is in some ways better than a dividend because you (as a shareholder) don’t need to pay tax on the cash distribution.

Many crypto proponents just don’t seem to understand how shares work and tokens don’t.
I know that this thread jumps around a lot and you might be responding to multiple people, but quick reminder of the specific comment thread I'm responding to:

----

> You just need to control the onramps and offramps.

> Bitcoin is of no use if you can't exchange it for anything tangible.

----

> All that's required for people to exchange it for something tangible, is for people to start.

----

The need to move BTC over to a stable coin before you spend it was part of Nextgrid's criticism to begin with. It requires an off-ramp, a functional exchange that will accept Bitcoin and give you something spendable.

I guess to be charitable, maybe the argument you're making is that the stablecoin is the transactable part of all of this and the stablecoin will be accepted ubiquitously and that it will be harder to regulate those kinds of exchanges. However, it's worth asking in that world why anyone would be using Bitcoin for transactions if they're just going to transfer it over to a better cryptocurrency later to spend it? Why wouldn't they just use the stablecoin?
mole, a bad action is still a bad action. I'm in the us and I can admit that bombing endless wedding parties in Afghanistan in an attempt to kill terrorist is wrong. That doesn't excuse russia from bombing hospitals in Ukraine.
If only cryptocurrency did any of that, instead of being an inefficient climate change accelerator primarily used to buy drugs and gamble on the internet.
Basically, you can just piggy-back essentially on your insurer's bargaining power by agreeing to what they would agree to pay +/- a percent on top. The provider can still refuse to provide service to the updated terms of course, but it puts the ball in their court, and insulates you from "surprise" bills.

Just blindly signing it means exactly what is on that sheet of paper, that the provider settles on an amount, and you are accepting an obligation to repay it. Redlining and setting a ceiling on what you're willing/able to pay shows good faith. Which if it comes to a court case, goes a long way.
I don't understand taking other people property is legal if they legally acquired the property in the first place. I specifically don't get how you can take Roman Abramovich, Chelsea Football Club or his yachts away without proving in court him acquiring these things broke the law.
And if you do start retrospectively punishing people, why not go after someone like Bill Gates who is just an American Oligarch just doesn't get called that, but rather a billionaire. He too used all kinds of shady connections to aquaria his wealth.

I get the instinctive hatred for extremely rich people and their wealth. But the one thing I've come to realize as I myself become richer, every new thing I buy atomically means I get less time to enjoy my previous possessions. We all just have 24 hours in a day. So practically all those possession of the ultra rich are often just paper deeds. There is on sum, a much greater benefit of something like a Mega Yacht to all the people that work there, worked to build it, work to maintain in, crew it, dock it in ports, and so on. He himself only probably get to use it on rare occasions.

To me it seems like theft to do it. Perhaps why I'm personally opposed to it, is that a few a years back I read about a government trying to take over the teachers pensions fund in Ontario. The teachers were paying out to a private firm to invest their pensions, and the firm did so well, it was worth billions of dollars.

The government running a large deficit at that time, seeing that huge sum (worth 227 Billions now) started getting wet dreams how they could take it over. They backdown.

But just seeing this kind of thing is off putting. It's just thievery.
Server on the M1 Mac Mini is really already there unless you need thunderbolt accessories or GPU acceleration for your server use case. Even the 10G port is working fine now. I was actually just looking into some of the 1u 2x Mac Mini mount options prior to reading this wondering if it'd make sense to do.

The Mac Studio bring-up might be worth waiting for on this use case though, apart from more cores it crucially has more RAM options. While the SSD is comparatively fast to swap from what most are used to dealing with the 16 GB of RAM limit on the Mini can still be between a real downer to a non-starter for many server workloads.
I recall there is a picture, but I’m not completely sure. I’d have to search around. If you search “Lincoln park coyote” you might find it. If you search “Lincoln park pirates” you’ll find a wonderful song by Steve Goodman.
"But, by making it perilous to publish allegations, however well documented, that haven’t yet resulted in a criminal conviction, the legal system can grant well-financed malefactors a free pass from scrutiny."

Wow. Kudos to London for having this. Publishing allegations without proof is something that should be punished. Throwing out unsubstantiated allegations without paying for it destroys all faith in the media.
The top comments aren’t doing the article justice. The article is really about the kinds of subjects that can be covered in depth as small sections that do not have dependencies between them. It explains the value of topics that can be presented this way, then explains these articles need to publicize this fact by claiming to be lists. Seriously well argued position and I recommend reading the whole thing.

Notability the article is not about hierarchical bulleted lists.

I did read the article and do see the work FB open sourced linked (100 microsecond accuracy), but will link directly to the FB blog here for anyone interested: https://engineering.fb.com/2021/08/11/open-source/time-appli...

I’m curious, who is even the target customer here? Places like FB and Google are working on the problems themselves.

They talked about some “latency sensei” product or something but what is it gonna tell me? How many nanoseconds it took for my API request to go from a load balancer to the web server, with 5 ns precision? Is that precision really needed?

I heard one option for addressing climate change is a huge sun shade between us and the sun. I figure that sounds like something that could be tuned into a radio telescope array or something. Maybe with the earth side being the side used for equipment? Idk.
What kind of Community do we need in the Crypto Age?
It is, absolutely, possible to make an accessible web page with javascript. It is an order of magnitude (and I mean that literally) more likely to happen with a plain HTML page.
We spent nearly 30 years planning, designing and deploying this. I don't believe there's an agency anywhere that can effectively cost out a project of that scope given that entire new industries can rise and old ones fall in that time.

For perspective, $10 billion is like 1% of a single year budget in the US and I believe the estimate includes the entire lifetime operating cost of the instrument.

If it did in fact just "cost that much" I would probably "not be that bothered."
You know the west is weak when we're thinking about reconciliation when they're still bombing civilians. Do you think Russians are stopping to think whether killing pregnant women is bad for reconciliation?

Russians are shooting civilians and bombing hospitals. There is always a lament about not stopping Rwanda before it got so bad. This is a time that intervention is needed.
Lol. Yes the British press is well respected for truth telling.
Clever. I don't know why Univ of Texas at Austin was different than your experience, but it was. It's the only university I've worked at as a developer, so I assumed that was it, but perhaps it was just that particular university's developer culture.
I heard various casualty reports, doesn't really matter though. These are volunteers, with no official backing. Not the same as a true deployment.

Apparently I'm not the only one thinking this:

> It's not bypassing due process. The process is: "Are they Russian oligarchs? If yes, confiscate everything."

It's quite literally bypassing due process, unless I'm misunderstanding something here.

1. Will there be a trial? The fact that the assets were seized without trial, and that no suggestions of a trial be held suggests that OP (and most people here) are not advocating for trials. If that's the case, I have a hard time understanding how that could be considered "due process".

2. what crimes did the oligarchs actually commit? when was "being a russian oligarch" criminalized? there were russian sanctions that were passed, but those do not give the government authority to expropriate assets

3. any laws passed to expropriate assets sound suspiciously like bill of attainder, which would be banned by the constitution. At best it would allow you to expropriate assets of people who still have connections to putin/russia or whatever.
> extend JWST's life span

I recall a thread here when it was launched where I suggested building a twin simultaneously, and that the increment in cost was likely to be 10% of the cost of one.

One of the critics of this idea said there was no need for another, as there was only so much the JWST could discover. But it's hardly been turned on before people are trying to figure out how to make it last longer. Sigh.

P.S. I found out later that in the past NASA would build probes in pairs, and made extra parts in case one was damaged or didn't work. So it really couldn't be that expensive to have built a twin.

>We know that, amongst other things, sleep is absolutely necessary to clear out toxins that build up in the brain during one's waking hours, and we know that people who get less than 7 hours of sleep per night are themselves at a significantly heightened risk of neurodegenerative diseases.

We know that? Because meta-analyses suggest that at even 6 hours you have less all-cause mortality than at 8 hours of sleep[0] and I'm yet to see systematic reviews/meta-analyses suggest that going under 7 hours is as bad as pop science claims.
