Simply put, it's a trust issue.

I think in many places people establish a relationship with their primary doctor, where the Dr knows them and their medical history in detail. Growing up, my family doctor had treated my family for generations and was familiar with me as a person even though I did not have many appointments.

But since I've moved to America most of my Dr. appointments are focused on the issue I am having as opposed to treating me for an issue. The Dr skims through my medical history to see if the issue relates to anything relevant. The appointments are hurried and impersonal.

There is a business aspect to medicine in America- it's business more than it is healthcare, really. I have often felt more like I am going in for maintenance like a machine than going in to speak to someone who uses their knowledge to help me be the healthiest I can be.

I know a lot of people here who also go to doctors and have their issues dismissed, minimized, or attributed to stress- and leave without any sense of what to do, besides grab a prescription or see a specialist. There is a helplessness I perceive in many people, and some end up with many prescriptions for different things and later find out there is an underlying issue that was overlooked all along. There are many many stories of people whose problems may not have persisted so long if their medical providers had communicated better- which perhaps most of them have no incentive to do, because this is time consuming and therefore loses them time/money. Whereas in a system where private doctors have to conpete with state provided healthcare, my anecdotal belief, they have an incentive to do better.

Anyway, having an impersonal system leaves people feeling like they need to look for solutions themselves, looking for hope at a cheaper price than a stack of copays and possibly having to deal with waiting long times for referrals. This is also true of anyone anywhere feeling desperate and looking for some control in regards to their health problems. So this opens the door to a market of people offering miracle cures. Just happens to be there is a lot of distrust baked into the reality that healthcare in America prioritizes profit over people.
It's not like TLA+ is really pushing research frontiers, it's just a great language using solid established algorithms that works really well for modeling distributed & concurrent systems. Maybe they're unhappy with the proof system part of the language? That's still a research project in progress.
419eater is still going (albeit a little slower since the forums switched), no need for past tense. I still get that sort of scam by the boatload to my email.
In the US, I had similar (not quite as early) optional 0-period classes in high school that started around 6:45AM. It was awesome, small class sizes (because it was optional), interesting useful topics (Math and Philosophy).

I'm happy my school admins made this available to us. I don't understand your rage.

If FDIC insurance is applicable, though, that should mean your cash is being held in your name with the underlying bank. It is unlikely that Voyager would have any right to those assets upon bankruptcy or insolvency -- if they do (I am no expert), that would destroy the neobank model to some extent.

> Voyager maintains an agreement with the Bank whereby the Bank provides all services associated with the movement of and holding of USD in connection with the provision of each Account. Therefore, each Customer is a customer of the Bank.

The "omnibus account" phrasing is a little vague though, but if FDIC insurance is applicable, funds have to be separated to some extent.

SEEKING WORK | Full Stack Python Developer with 10+ years of experience. | Remote and available to Travel

- Technologies: Django, FastaPI, Python, Docker, Ansible, JavaScript, Terraform, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, React, Vue, Next.js, Vercel, AWS, Zapier, Airtable (Scripting), Notion (API integration)

- Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariocesar/

- Email met at: mariocesar@humanzilla.com

I have worked most of my life remotely, primarily for startups and related to web-based projects. 6/10 projects I have been a solo developer, building from ground doing sysadmin to backend and frontend work. I now enjoy a day job but still, take on exciting and challenging projects with my software agency https://humanzilla.com.

We're a small software agency, and we're all family and close friends. We typically help scale apps to support more users or match resources to a budget. Work on creating custom CRMs for niche industries. We can help you get an MVP on the market. Convert your homemade tools to SaaS. We can create complete and robust automation projects with Zapier, Notion, Airtable, AppSheet, and other services. Recently started to automate Content Generation and tools for Sales Lead generation projects.

You can get an idea of my coding skills by looking at my GitHub profile https://github.com/mariocesar, and I often post code snippets in https://gist.github.com/mariocesar. Most of my links are in https://mariocesar.xyz/
When was that? Right now all 3 of my cars provide over the air software updates, because all 3 have cellular modems for things like remote lock/unlock or remote start. Even before this the previous generation Dodge I had could be software updated via a USB stick.
Thankfully, that data is public. [0]

And it's still damning. Billions of dollars of profit were made, every single quarter. I have absolutely no sympathy for these companies, especially when they also likely received huge sums of cash from the federal government for this "sharp drop in demand".

>Over 10 percent of the more than 7,000 oil, gas, and petrochemical companies that received PPP funds totaling between $3 billion and $6 billion reported no jobs retained as a result of the loan. The CEOs of Exxon and Chevron got raises in 2020, while Exxon announced that it is suspending the company’s contribution to the US employee retirement savings plan beginning in October and Chevron is cutting 6,700 workers around the globe [1]

The abuse is that without sufficient guardrails a ten-digit number can be used to bother me at all hours of the day or night unless I want to be less accessible to people who I may need to hear from, not that it's used as an authentication source (which, yeah, not great, but also not the end of the world).

Out-of-band authentication aside, a company is going to retain my phone number to be able to contact me. So are my parents. Somebody is also going to inevitably leak it because security is difficult. Breaking the capabilities of bad actors, then, is a requirement. You have entirely ignored this in favor of blame-the-user rhetoric and I can't come up with a great reason why you'd blame every user for a systemic failure other than that the system cannot be repaired.
All my life I had been taught that bullies were dumb. Imagine my surprise when I arrived at college and came across the first bully I met who was smarter than me. Much smarter than me. Didn’t make me tougher, but it made me realize even as you become an adult there are simply people to be avoided.

I found it amusing helping my friend "cheat" at Pokemon Go a while ago.

There's a popular walkway over the river full of gyms and stuff in the game, closed at night. We went under it in the middle of the night on my boat and he took over all the gyms.

Sure you could just spoof your gps, but this was a lot more fun.
Demis Hassabis (DeepMind Founder) on Lex Fridman Podcast
"God made man. Samuel Colt made them equal."

There is codified in the Constitution of the United States recognition that some will always seek to subjugate others. And an enshrined recognition that this is morally wrong is the Second Amendment: the right to bear arms. Many of the founding fathers of the United States made statements to the affect that a well armed citizenry was the only method by which true tyranny could be removed.

And true tyranny is the living example of "might makes right".

The appeal to "something better" than our base instinct to crush our enemies and hear the lamentations of their women is distinct to Christian morality. No other religion or political ideology makes this appeal.

This is why the United States -- with its distinctly Christian moral foundation -- is unique in the world. The founders recognized first the right of association and speech, and second the right to personal autonomy; to bear arms and kill those who would subjugate or kill you.
You would probably greatly benefit from reading the books of Dr. Thomas Sowell as well.

Howdy, HN! OP here. This is the second part of my series on creating custom web components with Lit. After this section, you'll have a working app in Lit running locally under Vite. Part 1[0] is an overview of how web components came to be and how they work.

I very much appreciate any feedback! Thanks in advance.

"The valuation of the assets of the Group have been based upon normal trading conditions and do not reflect an unexpected large-scale sale of assets, or the case of any key custodians or counterparties defaulting or experiencing substantial illiquidity, which may result in materially different or delayed realisable values. No provision for expected credit losses was identified by management at the financial reporting date."

Yesterday, Voyager could have said that.
Yea, it appeals to the same brain matter that conspiracy theorists appeal to: "The mainstream is wrong, and only we few lucky people know the real truth! <Authority figures> are lying to you with their awful _complexity_ and _nuance_ so they can take your money, and hate our truth because it is simple and doesn't let them take your money."
I got a similar scam via instagram DMs recently. They claimed to need me to confirm a code so that they could log in, but actually just triggered my own password reset. Message sent from an actual friend's account (which they had presumably successfully scammed) too.

Certainly made me think about how password reset emails are worded!
I see it as a no-brainer. To phrase it differently, what exactly is the added value BMW can provide over a Google/Apple infotainment system?

They need to focus on transitioning to EVs, there's no point in wasting energy on building and maintaining an infotainment system when a good out of the box option exists.

Later once they pulled off the EV transition if they want they can fork android and go from there.
We Sign Tomorrow? Inside a Tech Acquisition
The kind of synth's GP is talking about generally have no screen, dozens to hundreds of knobs and sliders, and dozens to hundreds of audio inputs and outputs for routing the signal.
Finally. There are these long comment threads talking about high school students taking public transit/school buses, but that just isn't how most high school students get to school. It is unfortunate that mid/late teenagers are so dependent on cars, which often means dependent on a parent or other adult, but that's the type of cities we've built in this country.
Yes, it's because there is a large black market in states that haven't legalized it and in a lot of cases, they're selling it cheaper than the stores where it's legal. The state sanctioned growers all have to have their products tested in labs for purity, pesticides as well as percentage of THC/CBD. The stores (separate entity) also have heavy regulations and security requirements as these are strictly cash businesses (since it's still federally illegal, you can't use federally regulated banks, or credit cards). It's expensive to do so. There is also quite a high state tax on cannabis sales. Illegal growers don't have any of that. It's also a lot simpler to cross state lines than international borders as most states don't have border checks. I know California does to check if you have fruit on board (large agricultural state trying to prevent various pests/diseases), but out of hundreds of trips across the border we were only actually inspected once and that was likely because we were in a camper so they couldn't just look in the window and see.

As a different example, there are "dry towns" where alcohol sales are illegal. The bordering bars where it is legal do very well.
I think keeping actual hypersonic flight tests secret is pretty hard. At least in IR they should be very well visible from space.

>DOD development in general is there are too few tests (And done too slowly) to iterate. The developers do not get lots of opportunities to learn from real-data, like at SpaceX

i suppose cost is among the major reasons. The SpaceX had an objective to take the cost down which is synergetic/self-enforcing with the many tests and iterations approach. DOD is opposite - the goal for the contractors is the smallest number of tests done at the highest billed price to DOD as that maximizes the contractor's profit.

High school has sports and activities though. I know many families that use the sports team as if it were a day care. If they do sports the kids usually get out somewhere between 4:30 and 5:30. Where I live now, a lot of the high schoolers are in school 7:30-5:30. It’s pretty ridiculous, since they also have homework. Many high schools seem to be in the process of transforming themselves into juvenile prisons designed to keep teenagers away from the rest of society.
Were you a 90s kid?
I remember going to bed between 9 and 9:30 PM in high school, and being up at 6 am - since I went for a morning run, school did not start till 8:30 am..
And you can have cured and air dried sausages.
It can be age 13 onward, although your point is still quite valid, even at 13.
Greetings, HN! OP here. This is the first of my three part series about web components and using Lit as an "anti-framework" and alternative to React and Angular. This section is an overview of the how and why of web components. In Part 2[0], I delve into setting up a test app with VSCode and seeing how it works.

I very much appreciate your feedback. Thanks in advance!

I also wouldn't utilize it, but perhaps there is a situation where you want redbean for running code on various devices, but maybe in certain limited cases you need to run it in Kubernetes or whatever, in which case this is a useful tool.
FYI, that's the coffee equivalent of the one-of-a-kind mechanical keyboard with custom layout and custom QMK firmware with modal overlays.

That's just how GNOME/GTK handles scaling on any platform, it's unrelated to what the underlying display server can do.

Windows DWM, Android's SurfaceFlinger, and Wayland allow for true native per display fractional scaling but it's still up to each app to actually use it.
Also BMW is indirectly admitting that their in-house software development sucks, they underinvested in it for many yeears and now they need to buy the core from Google to stay competitive. If it is only about Java development then they could write their own platform in Java.
No, you don't have to. Android Automotive is the base OS. Manufacturers can opt in to offer Google Automotive Services (GAS) which are a bunch of Google apps on top, which you do need to sign in to use.

This is only my opinion and centered around laptops, but:

GPU: depends on what you do, but pointless for many devs, unless you are into data science, useful for both gamers and creatives, but has different aspects

Display: devs - high res & reflection free, creatives - colour accuracy, gamers - refresh rate

CPU: not much difference, tho devs would likely prefer faster cores over more cores

Memory: dev's are most likely to run out of it, unsure of rest

Storage: creatives are most likely to run out of it and most likely to benefit of fast storage

Keyboard: dev - something that works more than 1 month (looking at you, 2017 MBP), creative - whatever, gamers - seemingly rgb and mechanical

Mice: opinionated, but you can't game on a trackpad

Footprint: creatives and devs are likely to prefer slimmer machines, but only to a point

Ports: as a dev, I really don't care, gamers aren't likely to care either, but for a creative I can imagine it's absolute dongle life
This author sure loves to escalate things. His optimistic take is for Europe to slide into full poverty, the pessimistic scenario total nuclear annihilation.

There's no regard at all for the current aggressive plan for energy savings and energy alternatives. There's incredible potential for using less energy whilst not destroying the economy.

The author also fails to understand that the pre-pandemic economy was a bullshit economy. Pumped up for more than a decade, creating bullshit demand that enable bullshit jobs.

For sure it's going to hurt when it deflates, but it's not like we can't take a hit. In fact, we might as well use it as an opportunity to relocate the limited workers we have to parts of society that matter most.

If anything, we should be concerned about the developing world that have less options to plan around these events. Sri Lanka is an example, but also large parts of Africa are directly dependent on particular commodities in a truly existential way.
I agree. There was a time when cryptocurrency gave me the vibes which Dixon describes: weirdo cutting-edge hackers on the weekend screwing with this strange new toy - it was 2013 or so for Bitcoin, then 3 years later for Ethereum. That was an era where '$30M' exits were shocking and flattering. Today in 2022, $30m isn't even the losses in bankruptcy to a crypto thing you've never heard of up to its gills in suits (both human and law-). Somewhere around the $100,000m marketcap, the cute-and-fluffy aspect of it all kinda wore off.

Meanwhile, there is another area today where $30m is a surprising exit for a weekend project taking off, where hackers eagerly debate on Twitter and show off the latest baffling thing they've just coaxed a new tech into doing and wonder what it could do next, and draw lines on log graphs... And that is indeed AI.

Why did this need to be a law? If it was so obviously beneficial like many commenters make it out to be, why didn't California's public schools already schedule high schools to start later on their own? Something doesn't add up.
As I understand it, it's not about “not being interpreted as nuclear strike” — since almost every Russian missile (including anti-ship missiles like Kh22 and the likes) could potentially carry a nuclear warhead, they explicitly don't care about the ambiguity, while the Western doctrine is diametrically opposite, explicitly aiming for as little ambiguity as possible to keep the escalation risk low. And your interpretation basically goes against both doctrines. — But more about keeping a low trajectory so that the missile stays below the early-warning radar horizon for most of its flight, striking without warning, where a ballistic missile gets within the LOS of radars quite early due to its trajectory.

Aquarium (YC S20) | Remote (US) | Full-time | Engineering (Backend, Full Stack, Infra)

Data Management for Deep Learning.

Machine learning models are only as good as the datasets they're trained on, and that means that most improvement to model performance comes from improvement to the quality and diversity of their datasets. Our platform [1] makes it easy for ML teams to find anomalies + failure patterns in their datasets and fix these problems by editing / adding the right data. So the next time you retrain your model, it just gets better.

We have great customers like Pinterest and Woven Planet, and are backed by top investors like Sequoia Capital and YCombinator. We're currently growing our engineering team, tackling projects like streaming data pipelines, data clustering for visualization, and tight integrations into third party platforms.

Product Stack: Typescript, React, Python

Infra Stack: GCP (and various managed services), Apache Beam, Postgres, Docker, etc.

Our postings are here [2], or just reach out to me over email at quinn@companydomain.
