Wife is a dentist. There certainly are practices where treatments are recommended as a function of money and cashflow (laser treatment and other "optional" treatments are a great example of this). However, crown / cavity recommendations are largely dependent on how aggressive that particular dentist's philosophy is. E.g. my wife only goes to her father for treatment because he focuses on saving teeth whenever possible.

Unlikely that a dentist would ever recommend filling cavities if they didn't believe it was necessary – they're not very profitable for practices. Crowns are sometimes recommended when a filling will suffice, but that's usually because crowns last ~10 years and fillings only delay the inevitable crown for a few years.
Not saying that you are wrong, there are bad doctors like any other profession.

But in general, the counterpoint to that view is that medicine is one of the only professions that never industrialised. You have to put a highly trained MD in front of every patient for every problem. It just doesn't scale. And some patients have the expectation that this MD should also cuddle them, provide emotional support and listen to their life. I am glad when I see a doctor for something and I am in and out within 5 minutes, it makes me feel that I resolved my problem without burdening a precious resource.
How is that possible? Electrical heating / AC?
I've known a few nurses, doctors, and PTs who expressed exactly this sentiment. It's such a stupid problem, too. There's no reason they should have such an onerous burden, and yet they all do.

One of the PTs I know spent at least as much time filling out paperwork as he did with patients. This was partly due to the volume of paperwork required by govt / insurance / lawyers / whatever, and partly due to absolutely awful software.
Isn’t there any software for solo practices out there?

As a student in undergrad, I got to know the people at the school's "teaching center" very well.

This resource is available on most college campuses for the teachers who have the humility to ask. Those folks were intimately involved in MOOCs and knew a lot about how to make online teaching work. They might have been able to help, but there was a bit of a sigma around talking to them.

From such a high level, staffing may not seem like a problem. When it comes to the hospital floor level, staffing's been a big issue these last two years. Keep in mind that the common 12 hour shift for a nurse came about because of 70s staff shortages.
It is _entirely_ unmanageable for personal usage. The official documentation that the OP found and calls some of the most accessible doesn't teach you how to write a custom policy.

In our case it's the weekend trips with the kids. Cars big enough to carry all kids are expensive and relatively rare. Renting over the weekend is expensive. And working on Fridays and Mondays makes it difficult to go out to a rental station and get one of those cars or return it in time.

So in the end, it's certainly doable but more expensive than owning and creates more stress/hassle.

Mailservers drop mail on the floor because they are doing spam-filtering AFTER accepting mail for final delivery. Once it's been accepted for final delivery, it can no longer be rejected.

The delivery server doesn't generate the bounce message you were expecting; that's generated by your own mailserver, on seeing a REJECT status code from the delivery server.

Mailservers do spam-filtering after accepting for final delivery because spam filtering can be processor-intensive. Sometimes it's farmed-out to an appliance or whatever. To have the SMTP process suspended while Spamassassin goes through it's contortions multiplies the consumption of server resources on the SMTP server.

The delivery server CAN'T (and shouldn't) send you the desired bounce message, because it doesn't really know who you are. It can't rely on the From: address, because you could be sending on behalf of someone else.

In my view (and the view of the RFCs), if a server says "200 OK Accepted for final delivery", then it MUST deliver the message.

There's an awful lot of the kind of server-side spam-filtering that does actually involve delivering: the kind that filters mail into the recipient's spam folder. That mail hasn't been dropped on the floor. It's been delivered, just not to the inbox.
You believe this because you probably know well how to use cmake+ninja, but you do not know how to use make (more precisely GNU make, which has valuable extensions over the traditional UNIX make).

Almost all the makefiles that I have ever seen used in open source software projects are in my opinion horrible garbage, and they do not use properly the GNU make features and they are extremely difficult to understand and modify.

That does not mean that makefiles must be written in this way. It is possible to write makefiles in such a way, so that the per project makefiles become extremely simple and extremely easy to maintain.

All the cmake+ninja projects that I have seen were also exceedingly complex and hard to maintain, much worse than when using good makefiles. Maybe there also is a better way to organize the cmake+ninja projects, but I have never bothered to study in detail cmake or ninja, to see how that could be done, because I already knew how to write proper makefiles and I have not seen yet any additional feature that I would want when building a software project.

Regarding the claim that cmake+ninja is faster, I have not seen any realistic benchmark proving this in the right way, i.e. not by comparing some good cmake+ninja project with a bad makefile.

I do not see why any of the 2 methods for building a project could be faster for the other. For a properly written makefile, the time spent in executing make is completely negligible in comparison with the compilation/linking steps.

I assume that the same must be true for cmake+ninja, so the speed must be the same when using the same speed-up methods for both, e.g. when providing the same number of source files per compiler invocation, to minimize the compiler start-up times.

Because the same work must be done, there is no way to for one tool to be faster than the other. Any trick that you might do to accelerate the compilation with one tool can also be done when using the other tool.

The only difference between tools is in the maintenance effort that must be done by the programmer when making changes in the project, e.g. when adding source files, deleting source files, renaming source files, moving source files and so on.

With properly written makefiles, nothing must be done for any of the operations mentioned above.

I do not know if this is also possible with cmake, because I have never seen such a well-written cmake project, but even if it is possible, the maximum that cmake could do would be to match what could already be done with make many years before cmake existed.

So I have never seen any reason to switch to cmake or cmake+ninja. All the arguments in their favor that I have ever seen were given by people who have never read the GNU make manual, so they compared their favorite tools with bad makefiles, not with good makefiles, so those arguments had nothing to do with make itself, but only with good ways or bad ways to organize the building of a software project.
Open source projects need to migrate their code away from GitHub NOW
In the (potentially) incoming recession? Anything related to the basics, food and military, and those serving them, are sure. Everything else - it depends.
"What determines the price a company sets for its product?"

My intuition about this is that a consumer will only buy a product if they value it more than its price, and a company will only sell it if it cost less than its price. So the price is inherently some point in between the buyer and seller's value of each item. If the price equals the buyer's value, then the seller gets all the profits, and the buyer benefits zero. If the price equals the seller's value, then the seller gets zero profits, and the buyer gets all the benefits. What determines this tradeoff?

The long answer involves me learning some basic microeconomics with the help of https://courses.lumenlearning.com/suny-microeconomics/. Maybe one day I will write a longer blog post about it, but I'm still not sure I fully understand the answer.

I am still not an economic expert, but here is my attempted answer to practice my micro thinking: the goal of companies is to maximize profits. If they can raise prices while increasing profits, they will do so! The only thing stopping them from doing so is competition from other companies. Depending on whether you have "perfect competition", "monopolistic competition", or flat-out monopoly, their ability to do so will differ.

For the companies examined in the article, most of the companies experience monopolistic or imperfect competition. The fact that they can increase profits by increasing prices shows that people have more money to spend than they used to (makes sense, due to pandemic saving, stimulus, and a tight labor market and inflation leading to wage growth). Prices will
increase until consumers feel enough pain that they transition back to whatever previous mix of thrifty and luxury goods they were using before the pandemic. Is that right?

But then this analysis leads to even more questions...
I completely disagree that higher wages does not increase quality of life. Especially when we are discussing minimum wage workers. Certainly there is a threshold at which the increments have a diminishing effect. But minimum wage workers are still roughly around 50 thousand dollars a year away from that point.

When you are making minimum wage, every dollar counts in relieving the stress of simply trying to exist.
During my last physical, the doctor was trying to listen to my symptoms while getting frantically pinged from the hospital or something. I don't blame him at all, but this trend of always-on + interruptions at work is disastrous, I imagine especially so for people like doctors doing extremely high level intellectual work.
> we have laws to keep prices close to "what a thing costs to produce"

Which causes the farmers to till the produce into the soil. The produce becomes more valuable as fertilizer than to be sold as food.

Runaway prices of necessary items can be controlled only by competition.

Farmers must cover the costs of the next season or run out of business.
That'll probably expand over time.

I would imagine they don't know what demand for this will be like, and parts for older devices are probably not in production at this point - so they probably don't have inventory to support a lot more than what they expected to service through their traditional processes.

------------

While not self-service, I'll note they've expanded service lifespans on the Mac side for repair in recent years. They'd previously guaranteed service would be available for 5 years (from end of new production of the model - which could be a while later than you purchased yours. The mid-2012 13" MBP is still less than 5 years from end of production.), but it was a hard cutoff after that. 5 years and 1 month? Nothing.

Now it's up to 7 years if the parts are available (10 years for batteries on some models), and anecdotally we've had a few repaired in that age range without issue.

That direction suggests to me that in the long run you're likely to see similar things on their "self-service repair" side.
I'm actually agnostic as to how it's achieved. I just think that the idea of running a container for three months without patching the underlying OS is nuts. Generally our guys only redeploy a container when there's been an update, so that OS is pretty stale compared to what I'm running on traditional VMs. It really was more of a reflection on how DevOps can become too focused on application development and deployment, as opposed to deploying holistic systems. We have coders writing apps that feed into our CI/CD system, we have admins who manage kubernetes/Swarm, and we have traditional sysadmins managing VMs. All with differing priorities and focuses.
ifixit is a somewhat political organization, they're pushing right to repair and grade products on repairability. I'd rather they stay independent from Apple.

DKIM and SFP by themselves haven't done a ton, but they both feed into DMARC which absolutely has had an effect. It's probably just not what you think.

The point of DMARC is to protect senders from spoofing. I.e. if I'm PayPal I don't want anyone to be able to spoof email from my domain, so I set a DMARC policy to reject if SFP and DKIM both fail. If I own a domain that I never want to be used for email I can set that same DMARC policy and just neglect to set up SFP and DKIM, therefore ensuring they fail.
jurigged is/was a secret weapon I used in turning round a project which had gone off the rails and over-run and I needed to start from scratch.

This process migrates (and transforms) data from one system to another. To do so, it needs to load rarely-changing static data from both the source and the target, and then talks to the source and target to achieve its goals.

This loading of static data took ~30 seconds every time. Because I needed to start from scratch, I couldn't afford to be re-starting all the time, and jurigged was key to this.

The secret was to use jurigged in co-operation with cmd/cmd2 which kept the process running between the dispatch of actions. During this interval, jurigged is able to jump in and reload, avoiding the need to restart and refetch the static data, and enabling me to edit and re-dispatch in a fluid manner.

This approach avoids the mental cost of context-switching and time cost of restarting, leading to a much more flow-like state of mind.

Thank you very much!

Musk’s tweetstorm has so far given little concrete information on the strategy for the company going forward but he’s indicated two areas of interest. The first is Twitter’s role as a public space for debate, which in turn needs to be protected, and the second is product improvements to help improve “trust” and user experience. This could also include plans to promote a subscription model so it relies less on advertising.
I have, in moments of desperation, `chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf` before. I understand the rationale behind managing that with a more robust service, but in my experience that's much more prone to the black-box effect.

Most nurses work three 12 hour shifts and are paid for 40. It's so prevalent that a lot of them will pick up an extra shift or two at an entirely different hospital.
This genuinely surprised me - I much prefer SELinux to a number of other access control systems out there (looking at you, Active Directory).

It sort of does the work for you, as long as you 'train' it across a broad enough range of daily tasks. Of course, its not always appropriate to play it that way, but for personal use I've had no issues.
Google can do it, too; try it with your example query. I find that more convenient because I can just type it into the address bar and it loads lightning fast, whereas WA is kinda slow. For simple math and unit conversions like this, WA's full power isn't necessary.
While I get the politics surrounding Reedy Creek, I think DeSantis is making a huge mistake. Regardless of what you want to say about Disney's politics, one can't deny that they have been very good stewards of the Reedy Creek district. And while it may seem wired that a company gets to govern itself, when you're actually on Disney property it starts to make more sense. The property is freaking massive, like medium sized town massive. The government can take the district back but now they are on the hook for providing services to the place and I think that's going to cost the taxpayer in Florida a pretty penny.
These numbers don't necessarily tell the full story, since "nurse" isn't necessarily a fungible title across the OECD: nursing requirements and qualifications vary by country, as do the job's obligations. This is probably particularly true during the last two years, as nurses (everywhere, but particularly in areas that have refused vaccination) have assumed greater daily responsibilities.
I don't buy the infrastructure, except for parking, it's needed for logistics anyways. the environmental impact of manufacture is a red herring as it's pretty much impossible to spend money without a similar impact.
The cost and bureaucracy required to get one working will probably kill this idea. Those machines require consumables to run the tests, as well as for calibration and QA. The vendor might be willing to sell you the supplies and send a technician to get the machine set up to run a valid test, but it won’t be cheap, and they might be unwilling if it’s some guy trying to run the machine in his garage rather than a medical facility. Beyond that, there is a reason that the machine is on eBay and not being sold or donated. It could be obsolete and the supplies unobtainable, or simply beyond economic repair.
> How doctors of all professions lost their professional agency to do-nothing administrators within a generation is quite puzzling

The profit model of the U.S. healthcare industry might have something to do with it. The fact that hospitals are run like businesses and have shareholders is insane to me. I know other countries' healthcare systems got hit hard by the pandemic too, but it seems like the uniquely capitalist nature of healthcare in the U.S. sets it up to mistreat workers and cut corners for the benefit of administrators and executives.
this is more correct, the medical fields have to do a lot of paperwork to follow rules and avoid issues (legal?)
almost half of their time are on charting instead of taking care of patients, paperwork is needed, but in most facilities, it takes too much time, and the workflows are not optimized enough as well...

If literally anyone could find your Mastodon address and message you, you'd get spammed daily there too, and it'd be the same problem.

So you think, fine, whitelists! But you still need to be able to accept messages by new authors without knowing their From: address ahead of time. You'd have to comb through your spam folder past tens of thousands of messages from new authors to find the one new genuine sender. Rings of trust don't solve it either because either you get spammed by someone in a ring of trust, or messages end up in concentric rings of spam folders.

You can host your own mail. It's just very hard to do it correctly, easy to screw up, and there's basically no gain whatsoever by doing it yourself. Some problems are just difficult and cannot be easily solved by a single person. You can't be your own CA [and have anyone trust your connections]. You can't create your own TLD [and have everyone be able to resolve it]. You can't create your own ASN. You can't create your own IP address. There are some things in life you have little to no control over, even on the Internet.

I would bet it's caused by:

- hostile legal climate

- massive start up costs

The only winning move is not to play. Let the system fall apart and join on the later upswing. The unfortunate part is all the needless suffering people will endure during this process.
