Flourish Health | Remote (US Only) | Full-Time | Fullstack - React Native/Node | $120k-$180k + Equity

Flourish is helping support families with adolescents struggling with serious mental illness. Utilizing sensor data, we aim to detect crucial symptoms that allow us to get in front of significant lapses that are often the downfall for early stage bipolar, schizophrenia, and other serious mental health conditions. We're launching this summer in partnership with a couple large Medicaid and commercial health plans.

I’m building our engineering team so we can turn the MVP into a production ready app and expand the features. I'm looking for engineers who want to make a difference in the world. Our stack is Typescript, React Native, React Native Web, NodeJS, and Mongo. We're fully remote & flexible and we'll have in-person meetups (because they're so incredibly important for a good remote culture).

Interested? Email me at josh@flourish.health.

That's kind of wrong re Kurzweil.

- He's always predicted the singularity for 2045 - no post moving there.

- He didn't say Moore's law - that graph you link starts from 1900, long before Moore and microchips

- The graph says 10^10 flops for $1000 for 2020 approx, = 10 gflops. A NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 costs <$1000 and does 29.77 TFLOPS = 29,770 gflops so a good bit ahead of the prediction
Hmmm. My mistake, then.

I was and am keeping an eye on it anyway. As and when it gets to a more useful state, I will try it and probably write about it.
Yeah. I don’t think it will happen. IME, the aesthetics of AGPLed software tends to be stuck satisfying the same people who think that MOTIF was the pinnacle of GUI interface design.

Sorry, how about "passionately despise"?
Seems to be a dupe of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30872415
as a guess it would go something like this:

step 1. prepare a usb with files needed to jailbreak the car and be able to connect to your wifi

step 2. setup a home network with dns/ntp and a reverse engineered tesla server that will authorize the car to work

step 3 set date to reasonable values that the car will accept

step 4 do some button dances to start the car from the usb

…

ill leave the rest to your imagination

> ... allowing pharma companies to keep charging abusive rates and everyone will indirectly pay for that by increased premiums.

That's what always happens with these programs.

Almost any 30+ year-old vehicle is full of these special quirks requiring special "rituals". The annoying thing is that they are hard to fix and often require rare parts which are not easily available.

I have a '95 Rover 216 Coupe which is mechanically very solid (Honda engine and running gear) and very well maintained, but the rest of the car is full of quirks caused by age deterioration. The numerous "rituals" include things like never closing your frameless door with the window down (a nasty cracking sound follows), manually pulling the tooth of the release latch before closing the boot, care when washing it so not to let water enter the spare wheel area permanently and cause rust, etc.
I am conflicted on this.

The spec is nice. I love the recognition that dates may be imprecise (e.g., 2022-05 -- although I would count that as the last day of the period, 23:59:59 on 2022-05-31, rather than the first day of the next period, 2022-06-01). I like the thought that went into it and the nice presentation.

On the other hand, I do not think this is necessary or even all that helpful in the real world. You don't need a standardized format if you are writing to do items manually in a text editor. You just write them. In the vast majority of cases no one is going to see them but you. Time spent conforming to a spec is time wasted.

A formal spec also doesn't help much for apps to use this format. There is not a huge need for portability between to do apps, and for most users to do items are ephemeral and not something that needs to be archived and revisited. Even if an app adopted this, being tied to a plain text format would likely hinder feature development, including the ability to sync across multiple devices. Beyond that, different to do apps use different systems of categorization and tagging, so really in practice I doubt this will become any kind of standardized format.

So, all told, it is a beautiful effort, nicely presented, but I think it is unnecessary.
For entropy sources that measure the environment, are there attacks where the attacker manipulates the environment? For example, when the source is measuring the temperature, an attacker could alter the temperature near the sensor to create more predictable random numbers?

Related: And does software detect if a sensor is broken or a poor source on entropy? Like if it broke and locked itself on to the same constant temperature reading?
> I'm tired how American Citizens don't have healthcare or houses yet our taxes goes to across the world, and the world isn't doing their fair share.

This naively assumes that US spending on its military is some sort of charity, and not something that the US does entirely to further its own aims. A stable global stage does benefit other countries, but it also massively benefits the US. The same applies to the things like US CDC's global disease surveillance programs - famously trimmed back in China a couple years before we had a pandemic that these very programs might've been able to contain.
Kinda sorta related, on macOS, if you choose to store your Notes in a plain old e-mail server, they are stored as text files very similar to this.

Or at least they were last time I checked a few years ago. It was very handy to be able to access my Notes and lists from a regular old webmail interface.
My brother had one of these about 20 years ago, and he eventually sold to a guy from other side of town. One day a few months later the car comes pulling into his front yard at high speed and does a spin out. The guy happened to be driving past and a front control arm snapped off due to rust, and he couldn't control the steering.

ACA was largely responsible for the cutting the number of uninsured in the US in half [1]. For the 28% of the US population with family income below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level, the reduction in uninsured as even bigger. That was hardly just maintaining the status quo.

Do the surgeons buy their own instruments? I figure they'd belong to the hospital.
Yea, this doesn't seem great. In my opinion, one of the biggest failures of the Affordable Care Act was the guarantee of profit for insurance companies.

This bill looks like the same sort of problem. "Insulin capped at $35/month" sounds great, but it buries the point that prices AREN'T actually being fixed. They're just shifting the increased cost from individual patients to the collective (via insurance companies). My insurance costs are going to go up so that pharma corporations can continue to fleece patients, and there's nothing in this bill that would prevent this.
to be fair, people who are outside the organization and/or critical tend to say "Mormon" while those in the organization that I have spoken with, carefully say "Latter Day Saints" or LDS every time.

The real question is: how the hell is Justice Thomas so silent?
I liked this quote from the article you cited:

Is there any way to keep the Lower Colorado River flowing? It may seem like
an engineering oversight not to have a way for that 815 billion gallons of
water trapped in deadpool to get past the dam. But as they say in the software
business, that’s a “feature” and not a “bug”.

This then answered my question why they couldn't just let water run through the original bore tunnels (which were cemented in, instead of maintained).

Good article, thanks for the link.

> The problem is the preservation of market mechanisms.

I don't know what you mean by this.

Unless we're talking about a system in which all doctors and drug companies are bona fide government employees, then healthcare is indeed being distributed via market mechanisms.

For an analog, take a look at the market for food (a vital necessity for life). The vast majority of people pay for food directly. Competition between grocery stores keeps the prices reasonable. Government programs provide funds to those unable to afford food, and those government dollars benefit from the consumer market mechanic. The idea that you could receive a bill in the mail a month later, for the cashier or counter worker being an unknown "outside vendor" is nowhere in sight.

The only fundamental difference with healthcare is that you might suddenly need a lot of it and not be able to shop around - ie the necessity of insurance. But this still isn't a reason to throw away the overall market in favor of an obtuse cartel that controls access to what should be simple cases.

Many, many resources on a traditional internal network do NOT have unified AAA. It's about more than slapping a login page on something, it's about making sure that every gateway to an application or data has a nigh unbreakable access control (think AWS IAM when properly configured).

Almost no large scale business network in the world can say this. And with IOT, it's even harder.
PS. The fact that any image can be encoded in 32 bytes this way implies that there are only 2^256 possible images — about one hundred and sixteen quattuorvigintillion. That's obviously not literally true, but we are searching for a subsequence of π which is "close enough"; the number of possible images which humans would consider distinct is probably well less than that.

(That is, the vast majority of possible images are "color noise" which all look more or less the same.)

They definitely should have said that then. Simply referring to "lockfiles" paints with a very broad brush that includes a number of package managers that don't have the problems that NPM does.
I recommend staying far away from Ubiquiti. OPNsense is a great choice that's fully open-source and runs on almost anything you can throw at it.
I'm not a puzzle player but give the demo a try. I think you'd be surprised at how fun it is.
I don't doubt this person could restore that car to factory perfection or remake it into a modern masterpiece. Thats not what it's for tho.

The clapped out heap of junk has an integrity, and dignity, worthy of respect. This car should most properly be exhibited on blocks in the front yard, surrounded by tall grass, possibly with a tree beginning to grow out of it somewhere.

Between a trophy and a salute to both the soul of the machine itself and the many people who made it. "Well done thou good and faithful servant"

It should be a habitation for dogs.
Who are the right people?
How do you tell if there is no vehicle failing because your inspection takes them off the roads or if it's because nobody wants them anyway?

Any kind of policing is self-denying. You can't evaluate it while it's being applied.
Most automatic transmissions are horrible because most cars are horrible.

Good cars have good transmissions, regardless of transmission style.

The ZF8 is an excellent transmission that's seen everywhere.

PDK does justice to the most performant modern Porsches in a way that manuals struggle to keep up with.

Even relatively small volume DCTs like the one in the 4C are pretty great these days.
> There really isn't a legitimate counter-argument to "can we please work to discontinue using 'master' and 'slave' to describe things in computer science and electronics" so people just run to "THIS IS ABSURD!"

But there is! The BDSM community has a right not to be discriminated against! If we're going to be inclusive, we should hear them out, too...
If it's going to be anything like GMO soy that Monsanto pushed into the Buenos Aires government in Argentina because "it was the future and we need it to feed the world after climate change" then maybe they'll try it on another third world "weak" or "cheap" government. Also BTW after that the US passed the law saying if something is GMO it needs to be on the label and there was a huge campaign against GMO foods so they pushed out the farmers using GMO in most of the third world out of the US market. Lovely.

I wouldn't be surprised if it goes the same way, push the little guy into trying it and then push everything else in the supply chain so that their meat can only be used for low margin cheap shit.
Sorry I'm late to this, but you're right, of course. The community does most of the work.

We do also write software, so the mod work is (thankfully) not all manual.

I'm still weirded out by the fact that it has an entire computer in it. I mean, I'm sure other monitors have CPUs to drive their menus and all, but this has an entire A13 SoC - the same thing as an iPhone 11 or 9th gen iPad. I'm curious to see what hacks emerge - like, can you turn this expensive monitor into a budget iMac, or a giant iPad (without touch input)?
If I were to bet, it would be the manufacturing requirements placed on pharmaceutical companies.
I am not saying they're unjustified (e.g. sterilization requirements), just that they're onerous.
What is the evidence against a lab leak? As far as I know, they've not been able to find the an ancestor of COVID-19 in any natural reservoirs prior to the pandemic. Also mentioned in the article is research being done that indicates the virus was spreading weeks / months before the infamous wet market. From what I've seen, there is very little evidence of a natural origin, and a lot of circumstantial evidence of a lab leak.

The question I am left with, as someone who has a bit of experience with functional languages but much more in imperative/OOP languages, is does it ever make sense to develop something like the GUI applications the author was talking about using a primarily functional paradigm ? Assume you get to pick whatever FP language you want so the issue here isn't with shoehorning FP techniques into a language that doesn't support them well, it's about whether there are certain types of programs that just aren't suited to a functional paradigm.

In that video, doesn’t the pro colorist basically call it a tie between the 5K LG and 5K ASD after turning off the “true tone” feature?

(Not surprising since they use very similar, if not identical LG panels.)
Common Lisp solves the big structure problem using "setf" form. It also generally has both destructive/inplace and nondestructive structure manipulation versions of practically all functions in standard library.

It solves parent-child problem by having symbols as built-in data type. They can be used exactly as the "mutable mediator" describes. And beyond, such as you can generate a code that uses these symbols and have it natively compiled - at runtime.
A phone number is not a number though. It's not an integer. Phone numbers can contain leading zeroes.
I like it.

I do something similar for my todo file but organize by date. Most recent date first. Every day I review unchecked items from the previous day and move them to today or mark them obsolete.

I switched away from Workflowy to a plain text file format. Load times are quicker, navigation is quicker, can use keyboard only without a mouse, the UX can keep up with the pace of my thinking.

I prefer vimwiki for this purpose
https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki

You can get plugins that sync it to a git repository. I love this.

There's also task warrior plugins, though I haven't figured out how that would for me, seems to get away from simple text files at that point.
