In our eastern european backwater and largely primitive country (Slovakia), greed has its prime. New dentist offices sprang up recently all over the place from where I come from. They took relatively big loans, and as greed is bottomless, want to pay them as quickly as possible to move to other investments.

I had similar experience as others - one guy wanted to set series of visits (4 hours each) to remove all older fillings. He was doing a fine work otherwise (replacing urgently one that started breaking apart). The detail being, he didn't do an X-ray to check if older fillings actually needed replacement (the idea is, your teeth can handle only few filling replacements depending on situation, so definitely don't fix things that aren't broken).

After that (and few months), went to another dentist who first did full x-ray, found that one filling needed replacement and the rest were fine and I ended up paying 5% of the price of first one. Good dentists are worth gold (same as many other professions for that matter) - if you find a skilled professional who is not ripping you off, you stay there till you die. This quality mix is unfortunately not easy to find.

Show HN: TPI – Terraform provider for ML and self-recovering spot-instances
Hey all, we are launching Terraform Provider Iterative (TPI).

It was designed for machine learning (ML/AI) teams and optimizes CPU/GPU expenses:

1. Spot instances auto-recovery (if an instance was evicted/terminated) with data and checkpoint synchronization

2. Auto-terminate instances when ML training is finished - you won't forget to terminate your expensive GPU instance for a week :)

3. Familiar Terraform commands and config (HCL)

The secret sauce is auto-recovery logic that is based on cloud auto-scaling groups and does not require any monitoring service to run (another cost-saving!). Cloud providers recover it for you. TPI just unifies auto-scaling groups for all the major cloud providers: AWS, Azure, GCP and Kubernetes. Yeah, it was tricky to unify all clouds :)

We'd love to hear your feedback!

Even if a doctor spends a bunch of time on you, you should still do research. End of the day you're the person that cares most about your health in the whole world, why should you just leave it to a random expert with good intentions? If you spend time researching and come to them with detailed information about your symptoms, what you already ruled out and things you've tried, as well as a good understanding of your medical history, you'll get better treatment, either from a good or a bad doctor.

I agree we should be able to rely on them more, but the point is to get a better outcome, and to do that, being an active participant in your treatment is a great option.

My experience:

Teeth looks fine and healthy, not much tartar to clean. When was the last time you visited?

Two years ago.

Oh no you should visit at least twice a year (?). Even if all looks fine x-ray is recommended which can reveal some things.

I do the x-ray. All is fine. You don't even have upper wisdom teeth. Lower wisdom teeth are at 90deg so they can pose a risk if they started growing.

Yeah, but I am 40 years old already? My mother is 70 and has the same 90deg wisdom teeth, never started growing?

TBH it really starts to feel "scammy" when they start suggesting procedures for things that might never happen.
Stingers aren't the only relevant technology, US isn't the only relevant producer of such technology, and the review of the Ukraine conflict has only just begun.

https://the-eye.eu/public/AI/ for a couple of the models shown, as well as the input training data "The Pile" used for GPT-J-6B.

They're... a bit weird. The sources are biased toward "internet content" IMO (Literotica, HN, GitHub, Stack Exchange), versus traditional sources like newspaper articles or other professional writing. Some of the other sources might balance that out in that they're as dry and complex and squeaky clean as you can get (EU proceedings, case law) but I'm skeptical it won't end up as least common denominator tweetable content that's missing the detail and style of more professional pieces. I know the OpenAI GPT series was trained partially on Reddit content, so that as a baseline isn't much better.

I have completely no authority in this, but my guess it's some sort of path-dependence. I think the problem is that we modelled our economy to rely on fossil fuels instead of trying to diversify way earlier. A finite resource under increased demand (the total population increased and the living standard increased rapidly in the last decades) quickly turns from abundant to contested.

What the article author doesn't seem to realize is much of dentistry (and medicine in general) is not based on evidence. There is zero clinical evidence that flossing actually does anything beneficial. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a lack of evidence for 6-month cleanings actually being beneficial. Similarly, doctors make decisions based mostly on hunches and gut feelings unless you're actively bleeding from a gunshot wound.

I look forward to the day when AI is sophisticated enough to take medical decisions out of the hands of fallible and emotional human beings. (We're not anywhere close to that day)
I think individual patients have very different preferences on this. I've taken pets to a few different vets, and some say things like "There are many possible reasons for these symptoms. Let's try XYZ and see how it goes." Others are more like "Your dog has X. We'll do Y and it should clear up."

My preference is for the one who I think is being honest with me about how certain they are about what's going on, and when a medical professional seems like they want to appear 100% certain all the time it makes me worry about their judgement.

I think many people have the opposite preference, which seems to me is asking for dishonesty. Seems like an ethically tricky area.

While that's certainly one way to synthesize directional audio, the far more common way is to actually have the audio come from the direction it's supposed to and let your ear do its normal thing to sort it out. Imagine you had an entire room wallpapered in individually addressable tiny speakers, you could actually project sound from any angle. The added benefit being that it would work for more than one person in the room. we've gone from 2.1 audio -> 5.1 -> 7.2 -> atmos 11.2. Why wouldn't we want to go to 50000.2 audio as the next extension?

"Tech Twitter" has been heading towards lowest-common-denominator content targeted at beginners and wantrepreneurs, for a few years now. Those audiences engage a lot more.

> What part of the paper gives you the impression they imply voice assistants are listening to everything?

For me, it's this: "Your Echos are Heard"

So, the opening salvo. That's what gives me the impression they imply voice assistances are listening to everything.

I don't refer to voice commands or normal interaction as "echos" so the user of the word "echos" here implies something nefarious. Sure, it's the name of the product, but for me, it reads like something more.

Uber is one of the worst companies on the planet. Their culture seems related to the huge amount of cash the House of Saud dumped on them ($3.5 billion initially). Their pricing and employment models are blatantly exploitative and their business model seems to be using a huge pile of cash to drive the competition out of business so they can achieve monopoly status:

> "Uber CEO Travis Kalanick said in a statement that the company is partnering with Saudi Arabia to support its economic and social reforms. Uber first began operating in the kingdom in 2014.(businessinsider 2016)."

Their drivers are the absolute worst in my region - see someone driving erratically and staring at their phone and doing Crazy Ivan manuevers in traffic, it's an Uber driver 90% of the time. They're poorly trained and dangerous to everyone else - pedestrians, other drivers and bicyclists.

If there was ever a boycott movement I'd get behind, it's a boycott Uber movement. Might be able to leverage the Ukraine war for this as well, as the Saudi princeling MBS is so in bed with Putin at present (MBS won't take Biden phone calls, but will take Putin phone calls, according to press reports).
> Also, listing fridge as "idle"?

The refrigerator isn’t constantly cooling. You could consider the time when it is cycled off to be idle. Of course it is constantly monitoring for when it needs to start cooling again. If it’s well insulated and your home is a reasonable temperature you can probably turn it off at night when you know you won’t be opening it. I don’t have any expertise. I’m just speculating.

Reminder that owning gold before that time was illegal in the USA. So it's not like gold was a free market under US executive order 6102.

Nixon largely was just admitting the truth, that gold / dollar was no longer connected. By removing the dollar/gold peg, US citizens were allowed to own gold again.

Goldbugs we're literally illegal before that so it seems really odd to demonize that point in history. The true evil to the history of gold was Roosevelt order 6102, if you really wanted to be historical about it.
I should say computable basis to be precise. Our fundamental object of computation - the number - generally does not have a computable basis in modern mainstream mathematics (where we generally assume the real numbers by default). The standard Dedekind cut construction does not give computable arithmetic because it involves cartesian products of arbitrary (not necessarily enumerable) infinite sets.
SELinux works well on Android because the OS is delivered by a single entity and unmodifiable, and is maybe fine on a desktop, but on a custom server it seems to me that using VMs or containers as a security boundary is far better since it's trivial to understand and in the case of VMs more secure.

That a chiropractor can relieve pain doesn't mean that chiropractics in the "medical" sense isn't a fraud. Imaging that shown the entire concept of "subluxations" in the chiropractic sense are a myth.

I've gone to chiropractors for manipulations. Some even were able to bill my insurance (yet surprisingly the cash price was the same as my insurance copay, imagine that). But I treat it the same as getting a massage. It feels good, and I might feel better after, but it's absolutely not any sort of medical science.
I thought this comment from Patio11 was topical and interesting:

I fully expect at some point in the future SSO will be as prevalent as SSL support is now.

> I think a lot of dentistry comes down to how much money they need that month.

I notice that even with my NHS dentist and just in how long he recommends leaving it until next time.

When I went back after 18 months (on a recommendation of 12-18) I got a cursory checkup, probably the most glowing 'all fine' I've ever had, a routine X-ray (i.e. that wouldn't be due again for a while) and then he asked to see me in six. I double-took and confirmed, so booked in for six months.

(Then we had a pandemic and it was more than two years before I could get a non-emergent appointment. That went fine too.)
> Gatekeepers that block access to potential treatment pathways until you can convince them it’s worth a try.

You assume they actually know what needs to be done. In my experience, you can see they don't have a clue and aren't willing to do research to learn. They just hand out their usual prescriptions, etc and sometimes hope an exam will give them an obvious answer.

On top of that, most doctors only have a very narrow understanding of the human body and don't know when to refer you to some other doctor they will be better equipped to help you.

> And what is the cost of unplugging devices after every use?

You really think your time is worth so much that taking 10 seconds extra for plugging/unplugging a device is worth even considering?

> Not just replacing sockets or cables

Never happened to me once in over 3 decades. Both sockets and cables usually have a longer lifespan than any of your appliances.

> Are electronic components happy now with the constant power on/off cycles?

Depends entirely on the design of the device and the components used.

The notion stems from the olden days of analogue devices, which indeed often didn't like being power cycled. Turning appliances on and off twice a day, though, doesn't affect the lifespan in the slightest.

There are lots of decision points. Some people are deciding what to sell; others are deciding what to purchase. An organization that de-prioritizes security in what they produce could be punished by organizations that prioritize security in what they consume. In this way, decisions are shared to some extent. Consumers might be misled over the short-term, but at some point they become complicit.

If a datacenter continues to purchase a model of generator after five high-profile failures of that model, they can argue all they want that it is the only model on the market that meets their needs. But clearly uptime is not their biggest consideration.

> you should arguably disable eval [using CSP] to help prevent code injections

Depending on CSP is a smell, just like any time you open a GUI program from the terminal and it spams a bunch of (clearly undesirable) stuff to stdout—or, for that matter, opening the browser console on a given Web page and seeing a bunch of exceptions or other kinds of printf-style debugging spew that shouldn't have gotten checked in.

Besides that, using CSP to disable injected content is user-hostile, which is annoying given that the only "justification" for CSP only comes down to Web publishers whose development practices are such a mess that they don't have control over their content (which, due to the normalization of deviance in the world of Web development, means most of them these days).

Nowadays, I open up the browser console on pages associated with big name properties (Google, GitHub...), and it's filled with CSP and CORS violations that never should have escaped into production. I think it was better when browsers had status bars and IE put a badge in the corner, e.g. indicating when the current page encountered an error during the execution of a script. It forced publishers to confront the shoddiness of their work and deal with it if for no other reason than out of sheer embarrassment.

> button in forms submit the form by default. If you don't want that behavior add type="button". No need for event.preventDefault()

That, too, would be user-hostile. Keep your markup semantic so agents can reason about the content on a page. Don't just target incidental behavior.
I don't think express is mentioned often because it's mostly used as a straight backend language. Sure you could do SSR via Express but I've personally never seen it implemented like that.
In a net heating environment, this is less of an issue than otherwise immediately obvious. A small idle electronic device making a consistent amount of heat just helps heat the house. If electricity is very expensive it would make sense to try and track down the offenders however.
