Cider was once the primary fermented alcoholic drink consumed in the US, but the industry was wiped out by prohibition, and afterwards beer took over.

This directly led to the situation we have currently, where in the US, "cider" usually refers to cloudy apple juice, and specifically "hard cider" refers to alcoholic, fermented juice, while in the rest of the world, "cider" only refers to the alcoholic drink.

"As long as the public isn't interested in seriously considering alternative systems like Medicare for All, nothing is going to change."

I resent the Democrats and Biden for not embracing Medicare For All. This would be the most straightforward path to a halfway sane system.

It's an interesting demand to claim that everyone should have exactly the same amount of money and if that's not the case there's some moral failure. Reframing it as people who don't believe this believe people aren't equal is dishonest.

It would be nice if this was the public debate we were having. Recently they dragged oil company execs in for a light video chat based grilling in the house. I would prefer to see the medical insurance companies pilloried, but and for those pillorings to yield something of substance.

> The war wouldn’t be such a problem if Ukraine received proper anti-ship missiles.

That's very difficult to say, actually; the Moskova was sunk with them after all, but the bigger issue is the abhorrent and indiscriminate shelling of civilian populations by the Russians. Fields with farmers and homes and hospitals with civilians are not of military importance. And yet, Russia keeps shooting them.

The truth is Putin's Kremlin is to blame for this wide-spread shortage and upcoming famine in many regions of the World, the West should just take the funds they seized as seed money to grow wheat in Africa this season even if it's a loss to offset this massive lost in cultivation in Ukraine.

For what it's worth, planting is still taking place [0], it's just being disrupted and will not be as large of a grow as it was prior to the invasion, so the yields will be reduced. I have it on good authority that in Lviv Oblast, specifically in Trasncarpathia things are still going into the ground as planned since Spring.

I agree. I think it's fair to say the entertainment/time-vortex/scrolling element of the web more or less moved on from the open web to mobile apps etc a long time ago and there's no reason to think it will come back. I'm not even on tiktok, but there's nothing open web about my Apple TV either.

The stores near you all picked the same company/tech to do credit card payments. Maybe because they are all owned by the same company.
Yes, that's how it works for larger cooperatives where direct democracy can become problematic. Even in direct democracies in societal level, presidents are typically elected, and there are ministers and managers by necessity. The same goes for cooperatives.

It's one person one vote applied to the corporation. In principle there's no reason why we should demand any less democracy inside corporations than what we demand in societies at large.

It's curious how many of these comments in this post could be reframed to be basically: "democracy can never work" or "democracy is clearly an inferior system to feudalism".
No bank in the world will loan you money without collateral. Now using your example of a loan based on a Picasso painting, the value of the painting is correlated to the money supply.

If Picasso decided to go live in Zimbabwe and decided never to sell his paintings to other than Zimbabwe nationals, paying on the local dollar, that would limit the loan the bank can collateralize with the asset, in other words the painting.

The bank does not create money.

localStorage is in a file, on your computer ;) For Firefox/Linux, it's in webappsstore.sqlite (guessing the same file exists for Windows/macOS too but can't verify, and Chrome probably have something similar).

Less fun: many "offline-capable" web apps that leverages PWA APIs/localStorage usually often allow you to download/upload a JSON representation of your data. I think I remember a graph drawing tool that allow you to do just that, but can't find a link to it right now.

» Thing is, we didn't have socialized medicine in say the 1970s, and I don't remember things being this bad or regulated. What happened?

Or even more simply, we grew up. I was born in the late eighties. I was simply too young to understand that the civil war was not about states' rights. It was about slavery. I thought adults knew everything and as I became an adult I realized I knew nothing.

That or a lot of what was previously swept under the carpet or dog whistled is now out in the open.

Back to the topic though, I agree with you Probably the easiest explanation is healthcare is now a bigger slice of a bigger pie about 20% of a USD 20T GDP iirc. There is simply too much money to be made here. There is only so much investment opportunity that has any good return so smart money will chase anything that resembles guaranteed returns.

Do_not_track Reignition Debate
Welcome bakc HN, to another round, a couple of years later. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27746587 happened only 10 months ago. Let's poll the audience:

1) DO_NOT_TRACK or no?

2) op? polemicist or avant-garde privacy advocate?

3) personal opinion: Almost no one in the original thread mentioned that an app that has opt-out privacy policy defaults would be unlikely to change their practices. And if we read what the op says repeatedly, "opt-out" mechanisms are inherently stupid, then this flag is obsolete. I.e. respectful providers never opt-out privacy tools, and they can always create an "opt-in" flag, which is conceptually and fundamentally not compatible with the "opt-out" flag $DO_NOT_TRACK. The op says "opt-out" is invalid, and then invents the primordial "opt-out" flag, but not one comment can see through this logical inconvenience. HN is fun to poll opinions but in terms of finding vetted thinking its no better than anything else.

Everyone wants to rant about how they "would" do something, and people who try "to do" anything are ridiculed, but, between pointing out a simple logical fallacy and psychoanalysing a random poster to the point of determining whether his standards crusade measured up, we lost a debate over opt-in vs opt-out and all opt-out adherents shilled their way through a lost cause of "standards" worshipers.

Sad affairs in these late hours.

I’m not the person you replied to but I can give you my (web dev ~7 years experience) take.

I have been having a super hard time believing the technology I produce is even good for society. Most companies I have coded for is an “excel with workflows and auditing” that costs well over $100k/yr. Combine that with what social media & smartphones seem to be doing to mental health I don’t really go to bed enjoying the fact that I’m part of an industry causing more problems than solutions.

That’s my 2c. I would be interested to hear your side of things coming from the embedded perspective
I don't know how much these terms vary by locale or specialty, but within behavioral medicine in the US, coping is ambivalent and a normal part of nearly any condition. A lack of coping would be unambiguously bad, but here can be both good and bad coping mechanisms in a qualitative sense. Coping skills are taught to help people restore balance to their lives if they have reached a point of having a clinical disorder, i.e. where the condition has negatively affected their ability to live and function. A good coping mechanism mitigates the disorder, while a bad coping mechanism may add another layer of dysfunction instead. A meta-level skill is to become more aware of these differences to self-adjust towards more beneficial outcomes.
"This forced hospitals to treat the uninsured, but it provided no funding to pay for those treatments. So the uninsured who don't pay are subsidized by high costs to the insured who do pay. "

They are way overcompensating for this. I think it's just a BS excuse like pharmaceuticals having to be outrageously expensive in the US because other countries are negotiating better prices. I have read some studies where they concluded that the losses through uninsured people aren't really that high. They are only high on paper because they account for them with their chargemaster prices which are way higher than what they would get from insured people.

There is no reason inherint to capitalism that healthcare couldn't work the same. Every other industry under capitalism has sane billing practices.

Regardless, healthcare is far from being an "unchecked" free market. The government deals more in healthcare than any other market, except maybe student loans.
Then, on the other side of things, every fast food android app is ~60 MB. Even Five Guy's is 45 MB. Why? They all do the same thing, and none of the data that is used is included in the app, and all the logic might as well be the same.

And then on top of each restaurant app, you also have Uber Eats, Door Dash, etc., which again, basically so the same thing.

There should really be a single fast food app, I select my restaurant, and it shows me the options (which is basically google maps with mobile websites that would actually work). There's no reason for every restaurant and delivery service to have their own app.

There are a ton of reasons why, but here are a couple of the big ones.

The US is still at the forefront of medical research and technology development in the world. However, many other countries won't pay "market" rates for newer technology developed here at home, so companies often overcharge domestically as a way to recoup revenue they can't collect in other places. Note that American hospitals (particularly newer ones) tend to be obsessed with having state-of-the-art technology, and they're damn sure gonna get paid for that.

Another major factor driving healthcare costs is the increasing barriers to access for millions of people. Lots of folks don't realize this, but the US already has a quasi-socialized healthcare system mandated through Federal law. Basically, it's illegal for hospitals to turn ER patients away that cannot prove ability to pay, so folks without insurance often come to the ER for routine medical treatment because its the only way they can be seen, and they know the hospital isn't going to chase them down for their bill because they can't pay for it anyway. Who winds up eating those extra costs? Folks with insurance. I used to work in an ER and I saw this happen all the time.

Not revenue. "Shareholder VALUE".
No good precedent set with this case. Hospitals will simply update their service terms to be really clear that you’re agreeing to what the “chargemaster” says you owe. They’ll mention it like 5 times so they don’t lose on these terms again.

Really a shame.

Just out of curiosity have been reading the engineering part and came across with below for not using websockets, confused because debounce and throttle is mainly used to avoid many updates over sockets so it's very well known problem for reactive programming

( https://pketh.org/how-kinopio-is-made.html )

> You might be wondering, why don’t you just update the database with websockets instead of relatively slow API requests?

> The problem with saving data with websockets is that they’re too fast. Authenticating that many messages per second and writing them to disk would be really inefficient. E.g. If you’re moving a card from position x: 20 to x: 420, Kinopio will use websockets to broadcast many updates during the move: moving card x to 21, moving card x to 24, moving card x to 28… potentially hundreds of messages.
