> What specific advances have been made in better detection and/or screening? Do we use better technology for this?

The technology[1] and methodology used in detection has advanced significantly and repeatedly.

> If there was some sudden advancement then I'd assume we'd see a sudden jump in the graph. Rather, we see an incredibly smooth and steady increase.

You're ignoring the time it takes for technology to be adopted and implemented. No business, medical or otherwise, blindly purchases every piece of technology the moment it's made available on the market. In medicine, that process can actually be so slow that by the time a specific product reaches mass adoption, the current technology or methodology or medical understanding has already progressed, starting a new cycle of adoption. And that's all still ignoring the financial costs, which are often a barrier for smaller practices.

> Furthermore, the graph is split between male and female and there's very few, if any, little increases that are synchronized across these categories. If technology was a factor I'd assume we'd see increases in both

You're ignoring many factors here, most notably that women visit the doctor more often[2], spend more time per visit and more willingly express concerns[3], and increasingly so as care for women has become more accessible and less stigmatized[4]. Also, the graph is actually extremely synchronized between men and women, so I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion.

There’s always been an option to use set the machine without a MS account
I would be satisfied if redbean were turned into the next DOOM and can be run on almost everything with a central processing unit.
Are you implying they were shilling? Accusing others of shilling is against HN guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
People don't talk about Google not being a legitimate or unsafe company.

Issues with customer support? Sure. Issues with shutting down some products HN loves? Sure. Getting hacked or being insecure? No, in fact they probably have one of the leading security teams (Project Zero) in the industry.
I do, and wherever all other things are equal, I always choose an open source solution. But if all other things were always equal, I'd be running OpenBSD full time, so...
My guess is that the vast majority of these banks failed due to mortgage backed securities crapping out around 2008-2010
I am pretty certain people there will end up in prison for making these kind of false claims.
Surprised this taken so long given the scale and time-frames involved.

That said, wanted by the FBI and most-wanted are aspects I'm not converse with so might be that she was wanted by the FBI for years and now been bumped up the list!
I had this issue as well, it turned out that something was multicasting frequently, which gets turned into a broadcast because of wireguard's nature. I just switched to plain wireguard with a VPS and my issues magically disappeared.
When a person new to V reads the documentation (which they should be doing), they would also see the following.

"Note 2: Autofree is still WIP. Until it stabilises and becomes the default, please avoid using it. Right now allocations are handled by a minimal and well performing GC until V's autofree engine is production ready."

So, autofree (as a WIP) is not at this point working as intended, which is described by, "The developer doesn't need to change anything in their code. "It just works"..." I don't take this as any attempt to mislead or deceive, like you seem to be doing. The documentation is even telling people to avoid using autofree, as it's WIP.

Yes, there is a difference between how autofree is suppose to work versus how it is presently working. Yes of course, I can totally see how people get very excited about autofree, and want it 100% working or want its development accelerated. But, it should be obvious that at this point, when a person is using it, they are experimenting. When a person takes it upon themselves to enable autofree, in an alpha status language, they shouldn't be surprised there are issues.

Then bringing it back to what I had typed about earlier, using autofree at this point, requires that the person understands something about memory management and looks at examples of its usage. Particularly when a person is going to enable it, against the recommendation of the documentation.
Mark Zuckerberg Prepares Meta Employees for a Tougher 2022
I didn’t intend to disturb you. I almost never assume negative intent, so I gave feedback in case you want to take it up and prevent readers from getting that impression.
I’ll admit I don’t know a lot about trademarks, but we’ve had a few cases here in Denmark where a small business were basically on a path to close down because a larger chain reported the small business for trademark infringement over something silly like having the same last name in your business that the large chain is called. Because of the way the law works, you have to spend some months defending yourself (and shut down your business while you change your name/logo/whatever), which often isn’t affordable for small businesses.

Luckily Denmark being Denmark, as soon as these things hit the news the public responds by hating the larger business and throwing amazing amounts of support at the small businesses. I just don’t think the law is very good when the public needs to circumvent it in order for the small businesses to survive, even when the small businesses are in the right to begin with.

So you are very likely absolutely correct, but because the world sort of sucks, the copyright law still hurts people it shouldn’t. I’m not sure there is an easy solution, because obviously you wouldn’t want direct copy products or DeWalt in stores either, but it’s certainly not good the way it is right now.
German economy minister warns of industry shutdown amid gas shortage
I wonder why people even tolerate MS's behavior and keep on adding these workarounds.

I remember the 80's activists, cutting holes in fences of military installations. Some politician commented in an interview about the impact: basically we ordered some extra rolls of fence when we built it, and wait until they get tired of their activism.

Windows feels similar. Someone wrote a tool to fix MS's latest abomination. Again. Remember the WinXP abominations like integrated DRM and a non-public theming API? Almost nobody patches them out anymore. People just gave up. The next windows iteration of Win11 will break this, someone patches it again, etc.. until no one cares. If you choose this way to fix the problems, MS will win long term, and you're helping them boil the frog.
Bitcoin is decentralised and Onecoin was centralised - enabling control and in the end abuse of the whole shebang.
I would never keep more than $250K in a bank. Many people (and even tellers at the bank) don't understand FDIC insurance ownership categories. You probably don't have as much insurance as you think. Bank failures do happen, and you don't want to lose thousands of dollars when it takes a few minutes to open up a second savings account. Ally, Barclays, American Express, Discover are all fine choices for parking money.

If you have tons of cash (nice problem to have), you can open up brokerage accounts (Schwab, Fidelity, Vanguard are good ones), drop your money in a money market, and SIPC insurance is good for $500K.

There are also "cash accounts" at some banks that will spread your money around for you to maximize FDIC coverage. I don't like this, because you're putting all your faith in one bank saying "trust us".
This was one of the first web pages I looked at when I got online in 1994. I looked at it again recently because it epitomises a very different and nostalgic era of the web.
I am surprised about so much cancer and so little environment talk.

The reason I don't wear sunscreen and have spent hours looking at ingredients just to buy none is that I don't want to pollute our waters.

After tourist season there is a oily film swimming on our Alp lakes. People are literally walking hours enjoying the nature just to pollute the source of all that.

These lakes aren't that big. And their fresh water source is very limited in the summer months. No idea how the animals react tho, not sure if anyone specifically looked at good visited mountain lakes
What I mean is that everyone has the same 24 hours available, if you want something to change you need to take a risk to change your circumstances. If you don't take a risk you cannot expect things to change.

Of course things could get worse if you take a risk. But that's why we have limited liability.

I am not framing their circumstances as something that people should just accept. I'm saying if they want something they should take a risk and try get it.
I wholeheartedly agree. At the same time, there’s a slippery slope that the moderators responsible for the site have to balance.

Banning Rust for example, would be a massive improvement for the overall quality of the site but would deter a lot of conversations and site traffic. HN is an important part of making sure that YC companies have built-in exposure and marketing by using the site to ensure that a lot of people will see certain posts. In this same way, Tailscale is important to saturate the audience with, recently.

I don’t envy the job, however poorly I think it might be being done. It’s like being a world leader or something. It’d be miserably stressful for most people who complain about it, but absolutely catastrophic if they tried themselves. Someone has to do it, at the end of the day.
I sincerely hope that we won't be abusing CRISPR-like gene editing in 2040 in the same way that we now abuse antibiotics.

But I am not very optimistic about that.
So, this is like you hire a house cleaner, and your house is still not clean.

Then, you fire yourself from your own house?

Yeah, not gonna happen. It's different for owners.
I don’t think Hn’s algorithm would take kindly to that kind of downvoting behavior.
A Honda mechanic once told me that if you ever see a Honda broken down on the side of the road, it is most likely either a fuel pump (often safely located inside the tank to protect it from DIYers) or a blown head gasket. The head gasket being a follow on effect of overheating --- often due to a ruptured coolant line.

Honda's are pretty reliable but they tend to fail in spectacular and expensive ways.
The first comment on that page is that this approach produces inaccessible UIs, not sure if that would be the absolute case or not, as it didn't look like the article was taking accessibility into consideration.

All that said I don't think this gives any real benefit over JS, sure, fix node_modules bloat, but I guess I'm a little bit skeptical if there wouldn't end up being hyperscript bloat if it became the biggest programming language in the world powering what for many is their defacto platform and thus everything needed to be solved in it.
its not really that hard to setup amazon system manager. like maybe 2-3 hours of overhead.

the idea that you'd pay a subscription fee greater than aws just to avoid a few hours of learning how to set something up is kinda disgusting in comparison.
The JVM doesn’t have u64, but it does have standard lib functions like unsigned add that do view their i64 arguments as unsigned and will reliably get JIT compiled down to the correct machine code.
The resulting code in Java would not be the most readable, but it is absolutely fine as a target.
It seems fine for me. When you search for a function definition it will tend to show you the most commonly used one.
I've left Feedly at the first sight of premium options few years ago - I wanted to try something new and it worked for a while. But RSS reader in bookmarks (livemarks as Mozilla once called these) is and tbh always was enough for me.

Foxish live RSS does job nicely in Vivaldi.
I think they're just focused and mature.
Will it leave telling holes and what about locations near clinics as mindful from Google Maps in dense area's how it thinks you went to one shop when you did not and just happened to be near there.

Would be better if it randomly shifted visits to nearby stores to mask things instead of telling holes in the data.
> bootstrappers react first,

Interesting! What is it they react to?

I agree VCs react to the markets and/or anything that is likely to affect them.
I believe the hacked app itself did nothing more than freeze the cat's bluetooth if installed. However, the video they also published suggested the hacked app would enable the kind of behavior BLTZ was promoting, meaning no one would want to admit using the app except for journalists who'd then discover it was malware. From there, the political machine takes over to ban the implants to prevent the clear, cruel impact caused by both the mythical and real applications.
This looks weird.

One of the core rules at the IETF is to give each spec enough must-have rules that two compliant implementations are able to interoperate. I don't see that in this case (yes, I know the W3C isn't the IETF).

«At the time of publication, there existed 103 experimental DID Method specifications, 32 experimental DID Method driver implementations, a test suite that determines whether or not a given implementation is conformant with this specification and 46 implementations submitted to the conformance test suite.» That seems open-ended indeed, and quite likely to have a high proportion of interoperation bugs.

It's good that they have a conformance test suite. Really good.
The whole story about the "atrapanieblas" ("fog catchers"), graciously gratuitously provided by the online magazine itself, was extremely interesting.

It is quite normal that on the frontend potential readers are reminded that non-subsidized publishing risks cutting corners in quality and rigour.
I don't. Windows 10 and 11 turned my OS choice from a preference to a requirement. I will not buy a Windows machine for a long time. They turned their OS into borderline malware.
Kind of a contrived example but let’s say you’re going to kick off a job that downloads a “Post” and associated data to display it, like a “Profile” and “Comments” (with sub comments, profiles, etc) but you decide that hitting an unhandled error in the Profile loading stage should cancel loading all the rest of the sub-jobs you’ve kicked off. Nurseries do this for you, you scoped the whole chunk of concurrent operations and if an unhandled exception bubbles up to the nursery supervisor, you can cancel all the subsequent parts of it. Then you can handle that issue if you choose to, or just ignore loading that post. If you scope that to the whole program, you’d have to handle that failure in the whole program. If you scope these things more finely, you can just cancel and retry or ignore that chunk, without bleeding that logic down into the stack and increasing complexity.
I mean you are talking about trillions in economic value from those combined industries so while it may not measure up to the pandemic, few things would. And just because you personally prefer card games, a few billion people play video games.

Also having a cheap phone from 2015 is quite an outlier. I absolutely get wanting to moderate tech use and I make full use of the digital wellness limiters to cut down on social media and interruptions, but phones are just so damn useful for just about everything in modern life. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater a bit there, no?
> The entire crypto market is a drop in the bucket. It could all go to zero tomorrow and not have any significant impact on anything.

That's what I used to think, until I began to see how connected it was to other parts of the economy. Once financial institutions get involved, you just don't know how connected that system is anymore.
This is one of the sell ng points of netmaker, besides three fact that it's all open source.
A few years ago ESR started on an open source/hardware UPS project called Upside.[0][1] I can't vouch for the design as I haven't looked at it in a long time.

"fully optimized for Google Colab free tier!"

I'm pretty sure using a python package to avoid the free Colab timing out and abuse it as an API webserver is against the ToS.
I thought satellites could follow pretty much every launch.
We're not talking about the behind-the-scenes puppeteering that may or may not have contrived global conflicts. We're talking about the ethos and philosophy of the nation, and what the soldiers on the ground believed they were doing.

Read up on what the German army did in Belgium in WW1, or occupied France & Eastern Europe in WW2. What Japan did in China. What King Leopold did in the Congo, or what the Russian army is currently doing in Ukraine.

There were atrocities committed by the US in the Middle East, yes, but nowhere near the level of barbarism in the conflicts mentioned above, and typically not conducted as a matter of official policy.
There's a lot of lonely people out there who probably would welcome a friendly conversation with a random stranger. I bet that's the target audience for this scam.
Curious as to why the orkut.com webpage is in English and in Portuguese. Perhaps Orkut learned Portuguese? I know he's of Finnish origin.
The OpenJDK team is also persuing structured concurrency so we should have multiple interpretations shortly to compare. Exciting stuff for folks that write highly concurrent software.
Trouble is, nobody could bring the topic up right now without burning their career. Between Corona and Ukraine, trying to allocate time for the cannabis legalisation debate would simply be political suicide. And those topics will probably be present until (at least shortly before) the next election, which might see the rise of the CDU again, which will be the end of any cannabis debate whatsoever.

That is what a friend of mine working in the Bundestag said.
Thank you, was and still is one of my favorite terms.

I think the idea is that you can do that for tasks that are meant to run forever. It's global scope. But you use smaller scopes for tasks that are supposed to shut down. In Go terms, it's like having an automatic waitgroup so you can't leak goroutines.

It doesn't sound like you need it for what you're doing.
Uh, this subthread started with my comment about Russia and Germany. Bringing up America was whataboutism...

What the htmx anti js crowd refuses to accept is the existence of applications that do not fit their world view.

Yeah, I bet he’s thinking of the other way around where the scammer gets you to give them money but doesn’t deliver the product. In this version you deliver the product and the scammer hasn’t paid. I don’t think scamming people out of aquariums is especially lucrative but I’m not a professional.
The brain and digestive system are very closely linked.

I think to make an "AI" on par with simulating the brain, you would need to simulate the gut first. And probably vice versa!
I definitely agree about the amount of Rust posts however consider that Rust is an open source programming language, not a commercial product like Tailscale.

Tailscale posts is like free advertising to the Tailscale company. There's a whole community behind Rust that would benefit from these posts, and not a single company.
I've got an idea how to improve the scams. Instead of trying to communicate with the victim directly, create a group chat of fake accounts, with the victim added. The fake accounts can share information, and because this is information is shared between subjects obviously trusting eachother, the victim is very likely to believe it.

The effort is higher (multiple accounts needed), but for some high-value targets might be an alternative to other scams.

Does this kind of scam exist yet? Can I file a patent, and sue scammers applying it?
You can buy the tables from the Apple store? Really?

It will get even simpler when 1.63 hits with the `static` `Mutex::new`:

use std::{sync::Mutex, thread, thread::sleep, time::Duration};

fn main() {
static MUTEX: Mutex<String> = Mutex::new(String::new());

let t1 = thread::spawn(|| {
MUTEX.lock().unwrap().push_str("hello ");
});

let t2 = thread::spawn(|| {
sleep(Duration::from_millis(10));
MUTEX.lock().unwrap().push_str("world!");
});

t1.join().unwrap();
t2.join().unwrap();

println!("{}", MUTEX.lock().unwrap());
}

Of course you can't really use it for everything (ie. whatever you put inside `Mutex::new()` needs to be static as well, but still, it's a nice option too
It's not like people aren't aware of stock classes when they buy it.
