I don't think the line between "expert" and "knowledgeable" is in any way blurry enough for it to affect this discussion. For something as serious as nuclear power plants and their safety (not to mention political factors), I don't think "let's expect considerably more than a Master's degree in nuclear engineering... we need an expert" is a remotely controversial statement or a movement of any goalpost. I'm pretty sure that's exactly what the public sentiment/goalposts have been and will continue to be on this issue.

By my understanding "casual blood pressure" is when you sit for 5 minutes in a doctor's office then have a blood pressure measurement taken [1]. "Ambulatory blood pressure" is when a monitor is strapped onto you and automatic readings are taken periodically (typically half hourly) over a period of time (typically 24 hours) then averaged.

There is some debate (according to Google), but diagnosis of hypertension typically involves an ambulatory measurement over a casual measurement. It strikes me that the ambulatory measurement is the more important one from a long term health perspective, and it's odd that the paper chose not to mention the ambulatory measurement along with the casual measurement, though I'm not a medico.

As an aside, at one point I added a microcontroller to a cheap Aldi blood pressure monitor to do ambulatory measurements. A doctor seemed keen to diagnose hypertension based on a few casual readings, but I was keen to base the diagnosis on more data.

I created a web app for doing personal accounting with GnuCash files [1]. The mobile app for GnuCash was abandoned around 2018 from what I can tell, and it never had synchronization, so you couldn't easily use it on both mobile and desktop at the same time.

I'm one of only two users as far as I know. It's in a public repository, but I doubt anyone has used it. Personally, I use it nearly every day, and it has enough features that I rarely have to use GnuCash anymore.

The app isn't the most beautiful thing in the world, but it works just well enough to be usable.

This isn't a criminal prosecution. The court can induce a cost that is more than the measurable damage caused. How do you measure racism? $1000 each time a derogatory remark is made? The cause of action in whatever civil law they are using for the suit might help but ultimately the victim didn't lose money, they were harmed and a fair compensation would be to harm the guilty party equally. As in, cause Elon and his company an equivalent level of distress over an equivalent period of time.

A fair punishment would be to reward the victim a random percentage of the company's net profits with 10% increments every year ( 10,30,40% ) with 40% max for as many number of years the person worked there and a 95% tax on that award to prevent they guy taking over the company. The company will suffer distress that is arbitrary and prejudicial in nature just like the victim did.

Judging by your numbers, is if we had 12,500 plants in the world we will have a disaster every year.

The following paragraph in a Guardian article caught my eye:

“It is the most significant naval vessel to be sunk since the Argentinian cruiser General Belgrano was torpedoed by a British submarine, HMS Conqueror in 1982. It is the first time Moscow has lost a cruiser since German planes sunk the Chervona Ukraina (Red Ukraine) in 1941 at Sevastopol – the same Crimean naval base which the Moskva was being towed towards when it sank.”

Ha, it's fun seeing this topic on hacker news. I've been in the extracting MEV for a while now. It's really fun and complex. MEV isn't going anywhere and not all MEV is bad. Some protocol owners solicit us to make bots for their protocol.

In regards to the negative aspects of it, there's a lot that individuals can do to avoid their trades from being exploited. Flashbots has also done a lot to mitigate the MEV related problems on Eth (some other chains are in way worse shape). Finally, there's some amount of common decency to not fuck up the network. If you break Eth to the point where everyone decides to leave, you've broken your toy so to speak.

This is why we should learn from what Ed Snowden presented as just about all of the data gathered by NSA and their contemporaries utilized the concept that encryption and security should only exist at the edge and they were capturing network traffic inter-network and intra-DC.

There were reasons why companies like Google took his whistleblowing seriously and changed their infrastructure accordingly because none of them feel safe leaving their "secret sausage recipe" exposed while still technically out of band from the customer paths.

I really want to support that kind of sentiment. In fact, I want to support it every time I get a chance. That's just how I am. I enjoy people hating on Microsoft and such. I may even provoke it when it's not entirely justified.

But to be fair, making a twitter post about "some random project we host fucked up a bit, let's help them to get followers back" does seem to qualify as something "more to it". I'm pretty sure they weren't legally obliged to do that as well. And I'm pretty sure ads on github's official twitter aren't cheap either.

(But I do find that "not legally obliged" tone extremely insulting in any kind of relationships too. I myself also tend to get all "oh, so that's how you want to talk?" over that. I guess, I hate lawyers as much as I hate Microsoft. After all, they are essentially the same thing.)

This is a highly biased article. It makes assertions that are unproven and have been highly propagandised.

> Since the Bucha massacre was made public

There is no proof that the people killed in Bucha were killed by departing Russian troops. The Russians are suggesting that the killings were of 'Russian friendly' Ukrainians, killed after the troops left. We won't know what actually happened until a proper inquiry has been done; not feverish reporting from a highly biased US/European press based on Ukrainian govt. claims.

> While Putin and his army destroy Ukraine and commit genocide

There has been no genocide committed in Ukraine. This is a clearly false claim.

I use their other enterprise products and they are a bit interesting. They do listen to feedback more than the competition when you pay them enough but they seem continually lack perspective of their users who live outside the Google bubble. As a result, they can be user unfriendly and have a steep learning curve or bug tolerant, by which I mean I get the feeling they expect users to be comfortable debugging and troubleshooting a bit or figuring things out from minimal documentation.

I mean at the end their products are good. My theory is they are biased by statistics, where normally Google culture might be tolerant of issues to .1% of users here and there (which is still millions of users) but at their scale, when this becomes a culture it adds up fast. But that fail-fast culture is also crucial to being innovative without costing a lot of money.
Debugging seems like it would quickly become impossible, but that is a delightfully cursed idea.
