tl;dr:

In Germany, the images are health data, not art, copyright does not apply, All health data belongs to the patient. Medical personal involved in the creation is authorized by the patient and bound by medical secrecy.

I believe, in Germany, the images are not considered pieces of art to which copyright would apply.

They are rather defined as patient's health information which is very rigorously protected by law, especially, but not only, by General Data Protection Regulation. The patient authorizes the doctor to create the images (a written consent that is secured during patient admission). All medical data, including the images, are object to medical secrecy! They are typically not even accessible for the health insurance - a clearing organisation ("Medizinischer Dienst") will resolve disputes between insurance and medical provider in an anonymized way.

Any use of medical data for research, publication etc, needs to be authorized by the patient and anonymized. Any transfer of medical data from one medical provider to another (for example between hospital and GP) needs to be authorized. There are clear legal rules, how long the technical creator has to keep the data and who is allowed to access them for which purpose. Violation of medical secrecy is defined as felony and penalized accordingly under criminal law (copyright violations, in contrast, are considered delicts under civil law).

The strict laws about medical secrecy are one of the major difficulties for digitalization of the German Health System. Any software that deals with medical data of any sorts is legally defined as "medical product", which has to apply to strict rules of security, secrecy and quality management. Failing this rules as a software developer/company or service provider can have severe legal consequences. Critical components - for example for the electronic exchange of medical data between providers of medical services - are therefore developed on a federal level with large complexity and endless delays.

In any case, the patient is the sole owner of the data and can request it at any time from the medical provider. The handover might come with a fee, especially if the data has to be prepared in an elaborate way - like the production of Dicom-CDs or the like and this depends on the contract with the health insurance company. The patient is not paying for the data or the creation of it, though, but for the effort of the handover (could even be postage).
I think this depends on how generalized and expansive you consider "traditional ownership ideas" to be. As GP notes, multiple people have different stakes in these documents. For example, the patient has privacy concerns which must be a pretty high priority, the doctor has a need to do business.

This can exist in our legal system of course, in the sense that the legal system can host arbitrarily complicated licenses and contracts, but it isn't obvious (to me at least) that this is the best framework.
> There's nothing magical about testers

Yes, there is: they get to do testing full-time. Engineers spend their best “brain time” designing and writing systems. Testers spend their best brain time, well, testing. That can make a huge difference when it comes to find bugs.
Sounds like the perfect start-up plan: just open a 50 bucks vitamin C store, and the dominant player will buy you out for $$$. Rinse and repeat for infinite money.
Kontact for Plasma/KDE has worked perfectly with Baïkal for me.
Of course I do, I wanted to be sure for myself that the difference is inaudible on Windows like it is on Android. I bought an adapter which supports it and confirmed it was transmitting it, then did my a/b/x testing.

It sounds like you agree with me, the default Linux support for Bluetooth audio is bad and requires custom workarounds to fix. That's exactly what I said.
It looks like Google Meet uses VP9, which certainly is not accelerated on 2014 CPUs.
> I can't hear the TV, which of these three remotes do I need to push the "source" button on?

I have a fairly dumb amplifier (it does BT, and the DAC can be fed through optical and coax, too). It can also be controlled over RS-232 and Ethernet. It doesn't have any kind of HDMI or other "home theater" related functions.

But the remote of my Fire TV can be configured to control the input and the volume of this amp. So if all I want is to watch a movie or something, I only need to reach for the amp's remote to turn it off when I'm done. If I'm too lazy, it can go to standby on its own if it doesn't get any input for a while.

I do agree, though, that a "normal person" would probably not want it. It's quite big and not particularly pretty. Plus it's useless on its own, you need some kind of source to feed it. A soundbar or some active speakers would be best for them, and it's what they usually choose.
It could be that Jabra isn't the actual manufacturer of the headphones and it's just a rebrand and the actual manufacturer doesn't give a crap to resolve the issues.
Do you produce your electricity? (solar panels, windmills, coal factory…) If not you have to guess the energy price in your area over the next two years.

You also need to estimate the Bitcoin price over the next two years.

And you probably need to estimate the bitcoin hash rate over the next two years.

Good luck.
This feels like it wad generated by GPT-3. Am I going nuts? I just came to HN after falling into a whirlpool of "Best Coffee Makers for 2022" SEO spam sites (waste of a Sunday morning), and noting how each AI-written "review" followed the same introductory pattern of chitchat. And then I come here and find a paper that sounds like it's by the same AI author.

>> Darwinian evolution tends to produce energy-efficient outcomes. On the other hand, energy limits computation, be it neural and probabilistic or digital and logical. Taking a particular energy-efficient viewpoint,

Someone tell me that's not GPT.

Compare with this from a coffeemaker fake review site:

>> The more features something has, the more you can make use of it, such is the principle rule of products and services alike. This rule is why companies try to compete with each other on their best products.

>> Hence, the brand Imusa is no exception to this, as they make an electric mocha maker that is loaded with features. To unpack all of the features, we must start with the build quality and work all the way down to the specifics.

[edited to add comparison]

You stop.

What is the definition of platform? What makes it the public's? Why does the government have any right to regulate & control this market force?

This is all such a ridiculous self-favoring privileged view. The invention of 'publisher' as a hinge upon which any right to self-regulate pivots is pure fantasy. A warped & deranged mania that oh poor us are all being so poorly poorly unfairly treated. And there's a completely fabricated totally fictional line of thinking that your poor poor ooppression gives you some right to control & mandate terms, to make your own rules that you can say whatever you want wherever you go & no one can stop you.

You stop. Come back to reality. Stop bullying sites & telling the world it has no right to discern & pick for itself. Accept & move on.

Caving to the demands from a small group is not uncommon. Also, they can always link the difference to race/gender etc. Say, if there are more women or racial minorities chose to work from home, and then working from home leads to less wage increases, then the company will be in trouble.

What I liked most is that it demonstrated direct memory access, so the CPU and the card shared the mastery of the memory bus. You told the card to play such memory block with very little IO, and the play started while you continued running your code. On end you had an interruption handler called.

The paper is not a study in itself, it is a specific medical case that was chosen due to the possible link between the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine and the acute hepatitis this person developed.

The hepatologists found SARS-CoV-2 specific T cells (determined via ELISA) in the liver of a 52-year-old male which had caused an autoimmune reaction in which the patient developed acute hepatitis. It was ruled out to be any of the known hepatitis viruses through serology and PCR testing.

The link between SARS2 and the hepatitis came from the high amount of SARS2 specific CD8 T-cells. However, they also found Epstein-Barr virus specific T-cells in the same areas, although the SARS2 specific T-cells were activated cytotoxic with a high correlation to the concentration of hepatitis.

I'd say that shows a strong correlation and it is possible this individual developed hepatitis from the Pfizer vaccine (BNT162b2 mRNA). There is nothing that suggest that this is in any way or form an expected side-effect from the vaccine itself.

Edit: Note that autoimmune diseases can come from almost anything. There will be a very few cases where the immune reaction to the vaccine itself will cause an autoimmune disease. However, most of the children that have developed hepatitis are under the age of 5 and therefore not eligible to receive the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in the countries where the reports are from.

However, a lot of the children with hepatitis have had an SARS-CoV-2 infection, which is why that link is currently being investigated by hepatologists.
It took me a bit to understand how tcp seqnums work in case of wraparound, but the trick is exactly that: everything works fine as long as you have less than 2*31 unack'd bytes.

It is entirely impossible to say. First off, your electricity price will determine how much (if any) profit you'd make. Most bitcoins mines are in areas with very low electricity prices for this very reasons and if you are not, it might be outright impossible to profitably run a mining rig.

Obviously, the price of bitcoin over those two years would be very important to your income and assuming a price of 60k (where it was a few months ago) would result in a very different outcome than the same calculation with the current price of 30k. Bitcoin has been very volatile since basically forever, so it is very difficult to predict of your scheme would be profitable.

Do you have any idea on how I can avoid the excessive interest rate the bank charges on my mortgage? :) Yes I checked, other banks loans are just as expensive. So it seems I'm not able to buy loans at "manufacturing cost" and neither am I able to buy gas or electricity for minimal cost.
I often wonder things like "how soon will I have saved $XXX", or "If I lease a car for the next X years, how long would that push back my goal to save $XXX". I was using a spreadsheet for these questions for a while, but decided to make a webapp that i could share with others (and use myself). There are existing tools that do this, but I think/hope tarot is simpler to use.

Some fun facts:

- this is entirely python, CSS, and html, built using django. I thought I would need to write javascript at some point, but there was always a work around

- I first googled "python webapp" in December 2021, and have only spent (some) weekends on this -- django was super easy to learn and use
I'm glad they worked for you. And yes, in extreme cases, yes, a relatively mild benzo like Xanax can really help. But doctor's give them out like candy and people don't really understand what's happening when you take them so they keep taking them.

This wholly depends on where you are getting energy and for how much. The "idea" around mining BTC is it's not free, you are exchanging Energy for BTC. If you live in Iceland where renewables are plentiful and cheap then you will likely make money, just about anywhere else though it's a gamble.

TL;DR: Just dont.

No, it’s an abbreviation of Tokyo.

Even if To means East - in a compound To often stands for Tokyo.

Same concept in these words:

Absolutely, there were IRQ & DMA defaults that usually worked pretty well in my experience, and in my friend group everybody had memorized fallback combinations to try. You never knew when you'd suddenly need to change that stuff when visiting a friend's house.

It's funny you mention using your Yamaha keyboard for MIDI out. I did this with the SB Live back in the day, it had a pretty cool front I/O panel too. I remember playing Phantasmagoria this way and getting creeped out really fast. Probably didn't help that the music was coming from my keyboard which was in another part of the room.
We’re talking about a company like Apple building a global infrastructure.

Any such scenario would result in the company or their providers controlling a lot of the infrastructure.

That’s why private relay isn’t a bad thing. You’re replacing thousands of individual risks with one. IMO, the protection of Apple’s PR is stronger than any tech.

Ultimately you can do what you want ^^, but it's worth considering the environmental impact of what you're proposing. Say a mining rig uses 1kW - for 2 years non-stop that's 1kW for 17520 hours. If CO2/kWh is 0.85lbs, then that's 14892 lbs, or 6.75 tonnes! The average passenger vehicle emits 4.6 tonnes of CO2 per year - that's less than our hypothetical rig!

The strong brand, yeah. That's what Warren Buffet looks for most. Really means you're getting a good deal, so he looks for things people psychologically have ingrained are good deals, and then makes them higher-priced deals. Maybe still good deals but I don't know. Because a win-win deal can be made into a win-lose deal simply by negotiating.

We’re more like a necessary expense, what we do is moderately important and pull in some income, but not a lot.

When we win, it’s rarely acknowledged, as the output from other more core teams just seems more impressive, but when we fuck up, it looks really bad.

A panic attack is not a normal reaction. There's an underlying cause to them, and I tell people that they should get that treated. Benzos are a temporary fix.

A friend of mine has panic attacks all the time. He should be on SSRI's but refuses because his anxiety is telling him that they'll destroy him. Can't do any worse than his existing anxiety though.

It feels like so many companies nowadays have forgotten about this and long term branding.

Everybody claims to want to be good, but (to crib from the Sees example in the article) isn't dedicated to being good at the expense of short term revenue and profits.

I was one of those guys that hosted nearly everything on a bunch of Pis. While it was fun initially, I eventually got frustrated. Yeah, self-hosting stuff is fun'n games. But sadly things do break, SD cards fail, hardware dies and backups do not work.

Personally, I am only hosting a few important services locally. These services are one hundred percent automated and can be deployed in minutes. For everything else I pay someone else to host it or I got rid of it entirely.

That does not mean that it isn't a great hobby. I just found myself investing may too much time for a small benefit. Also, I think that I did not learn anything new by preparing the sixth Pi or running some Playbook/Dockerfile/Installer that someone else has written

This is a really excellent summary of just one among many sufficient reasons why bitcoin’s economics are fundamentally untethered from reality.

Compared to the Amiga, Atari ST, or Macintosh, the PC had the charming rinky-dink-ness that the ZX Spectrum had compared to machines like the C64, up until about 1994 or so (later for the Mac).

It's kind of sad that no one but Apple wants to make serious quality custom equipment for home users anymore. The PC proved for everyone that "race to the bottom" is a valid business model.

Really? Where did you get that quote? That's not how it's meant to work, not with NHS anyway. When I did that recently I rang my GP surgery, and they got EVERYTHING from my medical history. You don't pay £20 per result - it's £20 to get hundreds of pages of medical history(if you have that much) all at once.
Maybe you're not living according to your own definition of "success". You may have been motivated over the years to fit in to what you thought you were supposed to be doing, climbing a ladder, mastering the field, making more money, etc. And now you've reached a high wrung on that ladder and you're realizing it doesn't feel like what you thought "success" would feel like. You don't feel fulfilled, you don't feel genuinely interested. Maybe take a look inside and see if there's something else you'd rather be doing with your one wild and precious life.
