This discounts the fact that the vast amount of money spent on Medical practices is in the US which causes the advances here. Once the advances happen though they're global, so the US does not get the benefits from that money.

This "tragedy of the commons" with regards to medical science causes everyone to misattribute things. Europe for example can pay little money for their medical practices because of the US bankrolling the research and drug development that allows them to do so.

One route to fixing things in the US, if we really wish to do so, is to create by law a "most favored" status for the US such that if a US drug company sells outside the country, they must sell the drug in the US for the same price as the lowest price they sell it to any other country. This would largely fix our expensive healthcare, but would also harm the world heavily in advancement.

I would advise using ZFS on Linux over ZFS on FreeBSD. You may find this somewhat surprising if you know my post history being a major FreeBSD advocate, but I have run into a somewhat surprising and persistent (and known, but not to me when I started building) issue with FreeBSD's USB Mass Storage support. This issue does not happen on Linux. This is among several issues I noted which affected my ability to make a budget-friendly homelab NAS.

Since you are using an M.2 drive rather than a USB drive for your boot drive, you are not affected by the issue that affected me. But I've reached a point where I would not trust FreeBSD to not have weird and esoteric hardware issues that could affect performance or reliability for storage. I'd recommend using ZFS on Linux (Note, I still use FreeBSD as my primary OS for my personal laptop).

> What specific, immediate, measurable benefit is that extra field going to provide?

As more people turn to automation, I've seen people triggering actions based on field values or changes. And... the ever popular "reporting". It won't have an immediate benefit to you to have another 3 fields, but someone else can measure and chart and report some other set of data points because of those 3 fields. Usually there's not any real actionable benefits to come from that info, but you won't know for 3-6 months until you have a baseline then some comparison data, and by then - who wants to remove those fields?

Nice. Rare writes are indeed a good indicator.

Its liberating to be able to focus only on the code. I am a big fan of KISS. Serverless, or better no-server?, is this pushed to the extreme.
I think your intuition is getting there. Using DI always is an anti-pattern[0]. DI in general should only be used to nasty, circular-esque problems. If you can split your code between pure and impure code, and then just pass around the data, you mostly don't need it at all. Passing functions around is more complex than passive data, so you need a really good reason to do so.

The GP asked how to do mocking, and my answer is: Don't mock. Unit test pure code. Integration test impure code.

So the point of cookie banners is malicious compliance. Annoying banners get people opposed to EU privacy laws, which is the true goal of the banners. When Facebook blocked news in Australia over a legal dispute, they "accidentally" blocked all sorts of other content. But it wasn't a mistake, it was intended to sabotage the privacy regulations' popularity, so people like you would call for it's removal. Craigslist didn't actually need to close personals when FOSTA was passed, but by doing so, they created a plausible claim for harm caused by a law that regulated them.

When companies overreact to legislation in ways that negatively impact society, stop blaming the law, because that's entirely what the tech companies are trying to do. They're trying to turn you against the very lawmakers who are protecting you from them.

I also have something I am working on now that isn't public yet that is using WebRTC. Really excited to see what people build with it/what it inspires next.

It is kind of amazing everywhere you will find WebRTC. Stadia, Boston Dynamics, Zoom, Meet, Security Systems, Drones etc... It is probable that you use WebRTC in production everyday :)
sqlc generates Go code, nothing else, but the web page of sqlc.dev does not mention this anywhere. Of course, this is a .dev site, and .dev is owned by Google, so it is only to be expected, I guess?
How? You just need to not save user data outside of that strictly required for providing your service and you easily comply even with the most stringent GDPR directives. To be honest caring about privacy lowers a lot your barrier to entry, unless you whole business is based around tracking ads or reselling of data to shady third parties.

Just FYI, annual checkups are recommended, but certainly something that a lot of young people skip. A quick google shows that only around 60% of Americans see a doctor yearly.

The checkup also isn’t a battery of tests unless you are at an age or condition for that. For a healthy 20 something that goes it’s basically the doctor checking your blood pressure and asking if anything has changed.

If a person is struggling with the basics, "you must learn all the things at once" isn't great advice. Reduce scope.

Also foreign keys are a mixed bag. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/83393/585411 for some of the pluses and minuses. I've seen very experienced people in significant projects go both was on the value of foreign keys. And a lot of the complications are more of a barrier for people who are just learning.

I've personally been on both sides of this fence.
It's likely that it's going to need a post on its own since it's an extremely complicated topic.

Not to defend anything about the American model (I personally hate it and think it's broken) but the annual checkup is a very cheap way of dealing with a possibly expensive condition.

The checkup is non-intrusive and for presumably healthy people consists of a physical, basic blood tests (glucose and some metabolic indicators + infection markers) and a blood pressure check. As an example, it's way cheaper to find out you have pre-diabetes this way, than to go to the doctor with symptoms when you have full on diabetes. This is mainly the reason why insurances pay for these in full, as they're part of 'preventive care'.

Annual checkups are definitely not the reason healthcare costs are sky-high in the US.

First, we weren't talking about "illegal immigration", we were talking about millions of refugees. Second, nothing about it was unrestricted.

It’s hard to beat synology: small form factor, low power, quiet, excellent DSM software, web interface for file browsing, expandable array, a lot of apps including mobile apps for photo backup and backup apps, etc.

But Synology doesn’t use ZFS, which is a better filesystem than btrfs. In particular ZFS offers native encryption (instead of the clunky ecryptfs in synology), and allows ZFS send from Linux servers.

Even when visiting Western Europe coming from the Eastern part of the continent one can very easily have the same impression. For example I find that France is quite obsessed with the US and, dare I say, it also has a small inferiority complex (which, in a way, the US also holds when it comes to France). All the daily action now for young people happens just outside the cities/towns, where you have all those hyper-markets and fast-food joints, similar to the “spirit of the Mall” that came from the States. NBA is also pretty big, no wonder Tony Parker has become such a star.

Northern Italy is pretty similar, for example LeBron had lived there for a while and was an AC Milan fan, there’s commercialization of everything, a feeling of “you don’t really live if you’re not shopping”, that sort of stuff.

Again, the US holds its own Europe-related inferiority complexes, that’s why I think this cultural dynamic between Western Europe and the States is pretty interesting.

"the computer says you cant build it that way. We dunno why anymore. The Computer Knows All"

The entire enterprise seems at base an effort to shift responsibility, specifically blame, to some moral-free edifice.

Perhaps we could admit that the codes, while good guidelines, are merely that. The purpose of the structure and its fitness are both the ongoing decisions of its residents and users.

We can have all the codes we want, but if nobody says "hey this is wrong" when the concrete is crumbling and the building is sinking, they don't help. They just give us a way to shift the blame for inaction.
The point is that most of these technologies have already reaped the cheap and easy, and, indeed, almost all of the hard and expensive improvements that are ever going to be made. In this respect, we are entering a period similar to the early twentieth century when we hit the limits to coal-powered technologies. The big difference today being that there is no even more energy-dense and easily available new energy source available to us to usher in a new suite of technologies in the way that oil-based technologies rapidly replaced coal in the years after World War Two.

Disagree, we have at least two and possibly third sources of energy that can replace oil. Those being solar & wind plus nuclear respectively. Historically speaking it took large investments in drilling techniques and infrastructure to allow oil to replace coal as a major energy source. It isn't that different now.
> any read error on any of the remaining disks is a lost/corrupted file.

That is the meat of it. With traditional RAID it is the same issue, except you never know it happens because as long as the controller reads something, it's happy to replicate that corruption to the other disks. At least with ZFS, you know exactly what was corrupted and can fix it, with traditional RAID you won't know it happened at all until you one day notice a corrupted file when you go to use it.

RAID-Z1 is better than traditional RAID-5 in pretty much every conceivable dimension, it just doesn't hide problems from you.

I have encountered this literal scenario where someone ran ZFS on top of a RAID-6(don't do this, use Z2 instead). Two failed drives, RAID-6 rebuilt and said everything was 100% good to go. A ZFS scrub revealed a few hundred corrupted files across 50TB of data. Overwrote the corrupted files from backups, re-scrubbed, file system was now clean.
you mean when I toured the new Facebook campus in California, with a data science group from Berkeley, and the Facebook guide stood on the stage and showed us on a thirty foot screen, that any one of us can make a map-reduce job in a certain format, Facebook will sell us info on any way to slice the hundreds of social tags and categories they had mined.. that was perfectly OK?

I think the example the guide gave was "bowlers in the upper midwest" .. it was made clear that we could make a job submisison and be sold data on those people. Someone asked if law enforcement was a customer and the answer way "yes we do business with all branches of law enforcement".
I got Covid last month. I have the vaccine and a booster and it still took me out for a week. Why should I continue to risk re-infection and long Covid? Do I wear a mask while in Zoom calls if I'm sitting in a shared area? Do I have to call out coworkers not wearing a mask? Will the next variants actually cause less severe symptoms or is that just wishful thinking? Am I overreacting or not? There are a thousand questions that I just don't have to deal with if I just choose to work from home permanently.

The slog is only used for synchronous writes, which most writes are not (as I understand it). Most workloads (ie non-db server) won't see much improvement with one.
Not every language has those.
I think the worst point is vendor lock-in. If your controller fails, and a replacement isn't available, then you may be dead in the water. That kind of goes against the very point of RAID.

I taught high school math for 2 years. Which really isn't really enough to diagnose (much less solve) the system's problems. But it did give me a sense of how intractable the problem is.

I find it enormously frustrating when people (not you) complain about "teaching to the test." Teaching to the test is good pedagogy! First, determine what you want to students to know/do. Then choose how you're going to assess their knowledge/ability. Then design instruction that prepares them for the assessment. This is called backwards design.
