> Yes, for example, the state-secular religion of the US, which is enforced in public schools, wants to protect children from influences it cannot control, such as homeschooling.

No.

This seems like an attempt at a wise phrase unfortunately mechanistically generated from some recursion and word substitution.

Please try to support the claim if you actually believe it.

Research classical liberalism, the scientific method, liberal arts, music, pedagogy, statistics, almost any field of study; they are not dogmatic in the same way that religion is.

You should read about the history of the homeschooling movement especially in the American south such as Georgia. It has been a sustained effort by conservatives to opt out of the educational system.

Perhaps you have some interesting angle on how state education is somehow parallel? But I highly doubt it. I see a computer scientist's mind at work trying to find a pattern -- a meta pattern perhaps -- to claim understanding. The problem is that I don't see any evidence that the claim has been examined up close. I don't see awareness of historical or educational context.

Tell me if I'm wrong. I see it very often here: Overconfidence without a grounded understanding.

Consider a simpler and rational explanation (for the USA at least): State-based education is funded largely because it is in the interest of the state to educate citizens to participate in government and exist in a pluralistic society. An effective education in democracy does not shelter people from the idea of religion but instead puts it in a context so that we can live together even though we may not have the same fundamental beliefs.
Congrats to the maintainers!
I see a lot of these too. They take over regular people's accounts, e.g. people from school I still follow, probably brute forcing passwords, then they post all this content how they are self made off crypto but the person in the videos doing the prostelyzation is in no way shape or form the same person who previously held the account.

Clearly they do this to get a decent follower count initially for their spam bots, but my word is anyone who follows John Doe actually going to believe a scam video that is clearly not John Doe coming from John Doe's account claiming to be him? There has to be more effective angles.

Yes, that's the worst case - however in the real world the FDIC and the OTS (Office of Thrift Supervision) does their best to ensure nobody loses any amount of money regardless of their account balance.

In the case of WaMu in 2008 for instance, the OTS took possession of the bank and sold it to JPMorgan Chase. They didn't draw on the deposit insurance fund and everyone stayed whole. [1]

"According to FDIC spokeswoman LaJuan Williams-Young, 'No depositor has ever lost a penny of insured deposits since the FDIC was created in 1933.'" [2, 3]

[edit] Looks like I found one case where a bank failed and a total of $500,000 in uninsured deposits (not in a single account, in total) were forfeit. [4]

Meliora Therapeutics | San Francisco, CA and Full Remote | Full-time

Meliora Therapeutics is a biotech startup leveraging modern genomics and machine learning to discover and develop cancer drugs. In short, the vast majority of cancer drugs fail in clinical trials, and much of the time off-target effects are to blame. We're using sophisticated genomic and machine learning techniques to accurately characterize how drugs affect cells and thereby to develop new drugs more efficiently. Our platform has already surfaced a number of interesting candidate drugs with promising laboratory validation and we are just getting started.

Our founding scientist is on the faculty of Yale School of Medicine and our team has strong experience in software/ML at Google/Verily/Benchling to complement degrees from MIT/Princeton/UPenn. We are moving with urgency to capitalize on the opportunity ahead of us and are fresh off a seed round financing. We are backed by leading funds who were early investors in world class companies such as Gilead, Recursion, Insitro, Benchling, and others.

We're looking for talented, ambitious, and creative machine learning scientists to join us in building a machine learning-driven cancer drug development engine. Previous experience in biology or computational biology is not required.

See our full posting for additional details here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HLaBRj1QpuUHqHZrlWPHu9ck...

How so? There's no reasonable sense in which reduced US refining capacity is a problem created by "radical politicians".

Is your position that oil companies under-invested in oil refineries, which are now being decommissioned due to being out of repair, because Trump was radically anti-oil? I don't think oil companies even believe that Biden will have a friendly legislature in 2023...

This reeks of "something I might believe after a beer listening to a cable news channel but not something I would bet $150K on". Again, I tend to ignore what people say and simply ask: "what are you doing with your money?"

If the answer has anything to do with your political emotions, well, good luck mate.

JP Morgan navigated the 2007 crisis and came out on top. They're saying recession risk is 50/50 and the S&P will end up positive for the year. There were definitely a lot of people in power and especially policy makers who put their own interests ahead of what the data tells them.

Burry is also a shameless self-promoter who has predicted a lot of disasters that haven't happened including WW3 a few years ago. There's like a dozen people who have made careers out of claiming to be the only ones that predicted the 2007 recession. If you keep predicting recessions you're bound to be right. In reality, it's just not possible to predict accurately. Here's Krugman in late 2006 presenting the data and putting the recession risk for 2007 at 2:1

https://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/01/opinion/01krugman.html

Right now there are several indicators flashing and a lot that aren't. Technical data like P/E ratios, volatility, yield curves are great at predicting things that happened in the past but they just can't be relied on as being infallible.

The illegal to retrofit R152a thing is mostly about old systems not being designed to ensure that in the event of a leak people are not exposed to high levels (concentrations of 3.7% v/v or above) for more than 15 seconds.

Old designed for R12 were not engineered to meet those guarentees. R152a can be huffed to get high, and doing so can be lethal. Thus we know that prolonged exposures to high enough concentrations of R152a can cause fatal cardiac arrhythmia.

So it is fundamentally a safety concern. Just an unfortunate one, considering how good it otherwise is as an R12 replacement.

Medical diagnosis isn't a perfectly exact process, and is strongly driven by prior probabilities.

If you present to the ER with pain in the upper right abdomen, with blood test results showing raised liver enzymes, meeting some or most of the "fair/fat/female/fertile/forty" risk factor mnemonic criteria, and have imaging that doesn't completely rule out gallstones, then the overwhelming probability is that you're suffering from gallstones, and that's the diagnosis you'll be given.

Since the gold standard treatment for symptomatic gallstones is gallbladder removal, that's likely what will happen. Under normal circumstances, far more aggregate patient harm would be caused by trying to make the diagnosis more certain than is caused to the few patients who undergo surgery but don't actually have gallbladder disease.

Unfortunately, these aren't normal circumstances: it appears that the liver damage produced by this lentil product produces similar pain and blood test results to gallstones, the risk factors for gallstones are very common in the US population, and it's actually quite hard to completely rule out gallstones by imaging. So more patients than expected are currently being harmed with unnecessary surgery.

It's important that this be publicized, so that doctors making these diagnoses know that asking "did you eat anything from Daily Harvest" is now a diagnostically relevant question when considering upper abdomen pain, and the answer may change those prior probabilities drastically.
The economics of the shift from productive labour (goods) to service industry is 50+ years deep and we're still afraid to talk openly about work, value, value adding, and hours.

Health economics is complicated. The primary barrier to more health professionals in most economies is government funding followed by restrictive practices in the industry certifying new entrants, not that the certification per se is wrong, it's the controls on rate of certification outcome which are the problem: doctors don't want dilution of income. The hours suck but the money is good.

They definitely need to work less, especially junior doctors and registrars in hospital. The hours are dangerously insane, life threatening for doctor and patient alike and it's no different in nursing: there's a reason nurses go locum and supply over contracted and it's bound up in stupid health economics.

Long term, the paper will decompose while sitting in the landfill and then release the carbon back into the atmosphere. Even temporary sequestration is beneficial, but I don’t know whether it is still a net positive once you factor in the resources spent growing the wood, mailing the paper, and transporting it to a landfill.
Great answer! I use to write down a lot on my SICP book, that are words of stupid thoughts of mine. I think this is unhealthy, so I bought another SICP if I will need to gift or to show to somebody else, both books are in English which is also not my mother language. Second book was used and it has only highlighting, which I consider a proper annotations. No other book I consider so personal to me that I feel a needness to write in it.
It will depend on the authentication strategy. For WebAuthn it isn't a problem, short of sending you their physical authenticator (e.g. their Yubikey, or their iPhone) they can't help you sign in as them even if they wanted to, so this makes it very hard to fool ordinary users into helping crooks.
I'm very confused about the meaning of 'liberal' in this thread - it's quite overloaded anyway, but is it also like 'conservative' in having quite a different (or at least more specific) meaning in the US vs. UK (and especially vs. capital-C 'Conservative' party)?

But also it seems to be assumed contradictorily to imply each secular and not?

Does anyone has a copy of that old flooding app back from the late 90's?
The interface is good, only because nobody has no ads / attention economy shit in the chain. Without that anti-pattern incentive we can wax lyrical about the joys of using something. Joy of use is still the objective.

When a company like eight-sleep decides to make pedals, there will be an app with a subscription, and 'content' and extra features for a fee, like 'adjust volume'. You'll get multiple emails every week with a breakdown of your 'pedal data' and suggestions for improving it - 'buy this accessory button!'. Bla.. I hate the internet.
going over book multiple times could be a good practice and helps with memorizing the content. But when you read for the first time, do you think brain still stores the content?

I mean, brain is just a set of chemical reactions based on inputs. Reading has 3 parts. (1) Eye running through text and sending it to the brain. (2) Brain is trying to connect the content with other neurons. (3) Storing data, probably in the form of neuron connection, after step (2), which found correct place to store.

Now assuming process never ends and human anyway can't control 100% of that chemical reaction. While your brain is trying to figure out other thing, can it still execute steps (2) and (3)? Because (1) didn't stop

200pp in 5h is a reasonable time to read a book as if it were a novel—when I was younger a did more linear reading, my usual expectation was about 1 page per minute, which is 300pp in 5h—but that's usually not how I would expect one to consume a technical boom. to maximize value.

> Most of these doctors would encourage the staff/volunteers who do the billing to put as many relevant billing codes as possible in the system

Is there any way to fight back against this? I've personally experienced getting a bill after a routine office visit with tons of charges I didn't recognize and procedures they absolutely did not perform. In some cases, it equates to $0 after my insurance pays, but in others it results in quite a bit of extra expenses (especially since I'm on a HDHP).
> Swim lessons? Get out of here. Church? I did imagine that. Try reading.

I think we agree on this subject, but as a 3rd party in this back and forth I have to say that this is not appropriate discourse for this site. Please try to interpret others comments as charitably as possible. There is never a justification for saying something snarky and rude like "Get out of here" or "Try reading".
Mr Nissan's hand is rather strengthened when he can show the UDRP panel he won a similar case in a US court of law, which might take the wind out the sails on the Nissan Motors side. For what its worth, the WIPO databases show plenty of other UDRP claims from Nissan Motors.

The UI they show as the new and improved version is still pretty confusing IMO.

Plenty of my searches will lead me to a solid stackoverflow / reddit / quora / forum answer but another large percentage only seem to lead to the blog equivalent of the offending YouTube videos, hyper tuned to show a description that leads me to believe it's what I want but delivering nothing.

I guess the only valid point is that the allure of small banks may be overstated.

There is a problem with large banks. It’s the same problem with large companies from any other industry. They gain oversized political power.

However, it’s weird to me how much we go after the banks for being large when it’s far more regulated than nearly every other industry in the country.
I heard this argument non-stop from the very start of shelter-in-place.
So what explanation do YOU have for trans activism? It certainly isn't just "we have always had this many of them but now it's ok to acknowledge".

Have you looked into who funds the media and their fact-checking services like PolitiFact (Poynter), and the IFCC? You might be surprised to find it's may of the same groups / people - George Soro's open society, Bill & Melinda Gates foundation, Clinton foundation, The Koch foundation (interestingly enough) etc... When the same folks that lobby and buy politicians, own the media and fact-check their own stories, the government doesn't need to "control the media". They're both already being controlled by some people with very deep pockets and substantial political connections.
