Because they don't know it yet. They audit and review each claim a an office sends, which starts a negotiation process to see if each claimed item by the physician was warranted and done properly. All that information is codified then into a level of visit, which changes the amount it will be payed out.

It is grotesquely complex, but the core issue here is that patients want to consume their healthcare through insurance, because it is tax advantaged. Thus it is impossible to make a cash business that would cut through all this bullshit for the majority of healthcare.
Why would C be the requirement for “really fast things”? It doesn’t even have any support for SIMD instructions other than going inline assembly.
It's being clever for the sake of being clever. They're saying imposter syndrome is itself a bit of an imposter, because it's often more a meme than a serious disease (whatever that means, it's not in DSM I think, maybe it's a symptom of some kind of anxiety).

The Wikipedia article [0] has a lot of quotes pointing to this. Even modern supporters of the theory, like Robert M. Price, recognize it as a fringe position within academia.

Of course, it is an open question in some sense, as the evidence is nowhere near as powerful as, say, Newton's laws of motion, or the existence of Julius Caesar.

Yes, that really does mean that Apple can decrypt your messages.

I don’t think so:

Apple doesn’t log the contents of
messages or attachments, which are protected
by end-to-end encryption so no one but
the sender and receiver can access them.
Apple can’t decrypt the data.

When a user turns on iMessage on a device,
the device generates encryption and signing
pairs of keys for use with the service. For
encryption, there is an encryption RSA
1280-bit key as well as an encryption EC
256-bit key on the NIST P-256 curve. For
signatures, Elliptic Curve Digital Signature
Algorithm (ECDSA) 256-bit signing keys are
used. The private keys are saved in the
device’s keychain and only available after
first unlock. The public keys are sent to
Apple Identity Service (IDS), where they are
associated with the user’s phone number or
email address, along with the device’s APNs
address.

There are a bunch of alternatives though. Overcast syncs really well (and has a web player, even if not a particularly good one). Pocketcasts is another good player
If you opt out of/disable iCloud iPhoto Library then CSAM isn't active right? - It applies to iMessages only because iMessages integrates to iPhoto Library.

Again, the CSAM "scandal" was actually an improvement of what the other online photo services do (constantly scan your entire library of photos with no controls in place). Just the improvement involved on-device scanning that folks seem allergic to. But you can opt-out, so still better than KaiOS.
Metastable Failures in the Wild
amazon used seems to be addressed this - there's now standards in quality, with much lower discounts, and I've had uniformly good luck buying used @ amazon just like it's new.
Geothermal makes so much sense conceptually. It seems ridiculous to run natural gas pipelines everywhere when there is a limitless supply of heat under every house provided one drills down far enough. Hopefully the process can be simplified and costs can be reduced significantly.
I refer to "the complexity and the challenges of constructing a reliable and economically viable" "interstate water distribution system for desalinated Pacific Ocean water", quoting direct parents.

The cost of desalination, the costs to build and maintain the tunnel/aqueduct system, the cost pumping water from sea level to 1,000 feet (elevation for Phoenix - likely more as the traversed part of the San Joaquin Valley is below sea level.)

To say nothing of the political and ecological costs - look at how well the Colorado River Compact has turned out, and the effect on the Colorado River Delta.

Water flows uphill towards money, certainly, but that's going to need a lot of money.

Speaking of the San Joaquin Valley, I would expect this water distribution system to irrigate California farmland first.
I wonder how it differs from what Yandex.Translate did back in 2016: [0]

>The affinity of languages allows one common model to be trained for their translation. That is, “under the hood” of the translator, the same neural network translates into Russian from Yakut, Tatar, Chuvash and other Turkic languages. This approach is called many-to-one, that is, "from many languages \u200b\u200binto one." This is a more versatile tool than the classic bilingual neural network. And most importantly, it is the many-to-one approach that makes it possible to use knowledge about the structure and vocabulary of the Turkic languages, learned on the rich material of Turkish or Tatar, to translate languages like Chuvash or Yakut, which are less “resource-rich”, but no less important for the cultural diversity of the planet.

>In order to create a unified model for translating Turkic languages, Yandex developed a synthetic common script. Any Turkic language is translated into it, so that, for example, the Tatar “dүrt” (“four”) written in Cyrillic becomes similar to the Turkish dört (“four”), not only from the point of view of a person, but also at the level of similarity of lines for a computer.

This way they added support for Turkic and Uralic languages which are very underrepresented on the Internet. But I don't know what the quality of their translation is: even though I live in a region where Mari is spoken (indigenous Uralic language) and my wife is Mari, none of us, sadly, speak the language.

Unsurprisingly AWS is ghetto about this.
Is there a quick command line or GUI tool that strips a PDF of everything except text/formatting?

In other words, can I run `pdf-make-safe` on a file before opening it to make sure it can't execute arbitrary code the moment I do?

Is it any good?

It'll be 100% deterministic.

Reproducibility is a big part of Google's internal build system, and they wouldn't be able to deploy something that broke that.
On the other hand, as a non-native Japanese learner, it is very obvious when Japanese text has been DeepL-translated because it often makes 敬語/register and context mistakes (and translating Japanese to English it does even worse because it struggles with null-subject languages). I am sure a native Japanese speaker would be able to see even more mistakes than I can.
Doesn't mean they should never be put right either. Just because something has been called something that it should always be called that. That's seems to be big thing in western society at the moment.
I've worked with DICOM files from at least 10 different sources. I was able to eventually parse/view all of them. I seem to remember trying almost as many open source libraries in the process, however. That's one of the many problems in healthcare - even the standards have competing standards.
Of course there are extensions: https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/get-extensions-iphab0...

What kind of functionality do you want from your file manager?

I use Linux most of the time, but the file manager on Linux is so bad that I sometimes manage my files from a Mac using SMB or NFS. I've tried a couple different file managers on Linux, and have settled with the default GNOME file manager (formerly Nautilus), but it lags far behind the file managers on both Mac and Windows in terms of both features and basic usability.

At least Mac and Windows file managers are reasonably easy to navigate by keyboard. If you have a directory open and want to select a file, you can just start typing the name. Easy, intuitive, and fast. This feature used to work in GNOME, but not any more. It's been abandoned. The Mac also has the column view, and I don't understand why other operating systems haven't adopted it.

The GNOME file manager also maintains its own "shadow" set of mount points through GNOME's ill-conceived VFS mechanism. So if you want to mount a file share, you can see it in the browser, but you can't look at the files in a terminal window. It's weird and surprising.
In taxpayer funded countries they mostly aren't getting paid by the procedure, and in the cases that they are it's not enough to incentive very much fraud. Socialized medicine healthcare salaries are actual salaries and far lower than earnings in the US.

If you are concerned about immediate things make a call or talk to local enforcement.
If you want to talk crap about a company that gives 0.002% of their "market cap" to FOSS development, at least be ready to show that you are doing better than that. Otherwise, your indignation sounds like nothing but a mere cheap attempt at virtue signalling, and FOSS devs can not use that to pay their bills.

What amazes me is they are giving money with no strings attached, and of course there will be some entitled prick who will try to find fault at that. I wish more companies did "PR stunts" like these...

There are no tolls on bridges operated by NYC DOT. Some bridges in New York City are operated by other agencies.

Also, you can walk across many of the bridges to Manhattan:

Your point seems a bit overwrought, but I agree more with you than those arguing about housing rights and whatnot.

In what other civilized city in the planet is access charged? Disney? Cars in Manhattan? De facto taxes via taxi fare in some cities?

It isn't a huge deal in my opinion, but it is novel.
Recognition is a terrible metric. It can signal greatness (Einstein, Shakespeare). It can also signal vapid, substanceless, attention-seeking abandon (reality TV stars, Donald Trump). Goodhart's Law in full effect here.

Now, this isn't to say that others' opinions don't count. You need some external sanity check to avoid turning into a crackpot smelling your own farts all day. But doing something of substance, and marketing it are two very different things. Blogging and public speaking are useful for the latter, but irrelevant and potentially detrimental to the former if one lacks the proper motivation.

I would say, figure out what you're good at and what your goals are independent of recognition. Learn from experts, and develop self-awareness, but always keep your own barometer of success. If you do this, then whatever recognition that comes will be genuine and you have no reason for imposter syndrome. If recognition does not come, whether because your contributions were mediocre in the grand scheme of things, or because of lack of self-promotion, you can still sleep at night knowing that you made the most of your gifts. The idea of pursuing greatness and global personal competition among 7B people fueled by instantaneous connectivity and social media is absolutely toxic and undermines each individual's ability to follow their own muse and make their own unique contribution.
#55 is 20 Jazz Funk Greats, and I thought it was suggesting that (industrial noise group) Throbbing Gristle would be good programming music. However, it just looks like that's just the name of a blog that they used to find the music.
An attack 80+ years ago does not underscore the need for any reform today, nor for that matter does an attack 20+ years ago. Not unless you think nothing has changed between then and now, which would be silly. Introspection and reform after both those attacks happened years ago. It may be the case that we do need additional reform today, but that isn't evidenced by attacks which occurred generation[s] ago.
Quite interesting, did not know things worked like this in the US.

In France, from my understanding, there is "Les retours" ("The returns"), a system where libraries have one year to send unsold books backs, then the distributor usually dispatch them to their libraries or as a stock for online sales.
Thank you for your personal story. I had to do the math to discover that 34C is actually only 93F.

I have to respectfully disagree that those conditions are near the limits of human endurance. My own experience working outside in all kinds of weather causes me to see that temperature/humidity combination as fairly mild (normal summer temps for June/July) and easily survivable since I personally have known many people of all ages who manage to go about their business with no ill effects in conditions more extreme than that here in Texas. Current conditions here today were 103F (>39C) with heat index due to humidity making it feel like 106F (>41C). I worked outside all day and I am over 60 years old.

I know that our world is facing extreme conditions due to human-caused climate change and I see the effects here locally even this summer as we are firmly in an extreme drought with no rain in the forecast for at least the next 10 days.

Overall though I think humans are quite resilient and smart and that we will find a way to mitigate the damage that is already built in and to minimize consequences of further damage. I have to believe that as an organism, we will find a way to adapt to whatever we manage to create or destroy.

I believe it is probably more accurate to frame the problem as one where vulnerable members of a population will be much closer to their endurance limits over the next few decades. The human race though will adapt. Vulnerable members could be defined as those who have medical issues or those who have spent large parts of their lives indoors where the range of temperatures that they normally see is very small. They have not hardened their constitutions to the actual physical conditions of temperature and humidity where they live and work because they shelter inside year round instead of going outside to take it all in.

I think we can see examples globally of populations that have lived in what many of us in the developed world would consider extreme conditions with no hardships. They manage their limited resources to take fullest advantage of whatever meager resources their local environment provides. They will serve as a lesson to the rest of the world as to how to adapt as everything changes.
The Great Venusian Bug Hunt
I thought this article was going somewhere interesting, but then it just sort of petered out, after a number of paragraphs of increasingly dismaying academic language. Not that academic language doesn’t have a purpose sometimes. I just didn’t see it here. Maybe it’s my bad (to use a very non-academic phrasing).
Great to know. I also almost exclusively use one-pedal driving (Model 3). That simple change makes driving so much less stressful, however, I'm afraid of loosing the "jump on the brakes" muscle memory if an emergency does crop up.
How do you know that a real world event happened if you didn't perceive it with your own senses?

One of the long term goals of blockchains interfacing with the "real world" is to build oracle marketplaces that compete to provide "proof of true events". You can essentially build a reputation by selling valid data. The same way different news outlets and journalists compete for providing the "proof" for events.

Certainly Razorpay didnt act in the best interest of the consumers. It didn't pursue the legal options it had. Leaving politics aside, this doesnt seem to be a good thing.

Maybe not the best time to be using FSD? Sounds extremely lazy and negligent, take better care of your partner when they're injured, at least let them rest and heal before saddling with child transport duties.

I hate Mullosk and Tesla, but have to side with them in this case. Author sounds like a stereotypical entitled foolish fancy car owner, detached from reality. For safety reasons, they should have to pass additional training before access is reinstated.

OniVim's main selling points was it beeing close to VSCode, so saying Helix Editor is its successor but not having the main features does not make a lot of sense to me.
Based on your points it sounds like Helix Editor is pretty much the same as SpaceVim.
Sorry I mean UI. However the UX should be improved too.

1. You cannot easily share the items with others.

2. Auto fill password for Wi-Fi is bad. I cannot fill anything.
What about reproducibility of the compiler binaries? I got the impression that model training itself isn't deterministic across training hardware? Since the model is embedded in the binaries, then the binaries aren't really reproducible if the model isn't. How big is the data used to train the model? How costly is it to train the model?
They can't, because the platform it runs on doesn't belong to anyone in particular. It's absolutely not the same situation that Apple/console makers have.

No they shouldn't. Steam wasn't the first in digital distribution of videogames as some consoles offered similar system way before Steam. An argument can be made that "on demand" gaming options of the past can be considered the Steam of the past. And enforcing regulations for no reasons other than regulating on companies that are widely recognized as pioneers of their respective industries is the very definition of "punishing success".
I remember a while back reading a paper about using superoptimizers to auto-generate peephole optimizations; anyone know if that ever got deployed anywhere?
Wait, they accepted to refund a broken, 7 years old product ?

How was this policy not abused to the point of killing the company ?
Yeah, I tried all of that. I'll spare you the details, but things just lined up in a way that made me ineligible for COBRA, but the insurance that I had at my previous employer was absolute trash and they wouldn't have covered a single thing anyway. It was the only option given aside from Kaiser (my Kaiser saga is an even longer story), and even before this emergency it covered almost nothing.

My prescriptions seemed kind of high so I checked with GoodRx and they were cheaper! Cheaper without insurance than with, like how does that even make sense?

Right now I'm trying to negotiate on my last and only unpaid bill, the hospital won't negotiate with 1st parties so I've been trying to go through a newer company called Goodbill or something. I can't vouch for them yet as it's still in process, but just trying to get this all out of the way so I can just move on. Honestly, this whole thing has been so terrible that I'm just like, nope you're not even going in the worry pile. I'll go through the motions, pay it as best I can, and move on. I'll save the worry for the next totally normal work meeting coming up :)

I'm just very fortunate that I don't have a family to support or a mortgage to pay, even though I've been very close to breaking my lease and moving in with my parents until I can get back on my feet. I mean, I make good money too, I never thought I'd be in this situation.

I will absolutely go through the insurance options with a fine toothed comb when I interview again. Mama mía, aye yay yay
You're saying it like you're the only one running docker.

> nobody can get out without someone else getting stuck holding the bag

That's true for practically every asset class. If you sold your Netflix stock at $600, someone had to buy it at $600 as well. And now they're out of $430.

There's a losing counterparty in every winning trade.
Fun Fact: COBRA coverage doesn’t exist when your startup shuts down and you’re laid off.

This did not stop my insurance company from cashing my premium payments for over three months, even though they silently canceled my policy (no email, mail, or phone call). I only learned I had no coverage when I actually tried to have a dental appointment. Refunds of these premium payments took another another 3 months to be returned!
Before its time. I still miss it.
Wait, the human body makes a million red blood cells a second? That's kind of mind blowing.
I’m not a fan of many UX/UI choices here, but complaining about the “lack of dark mode” in a beta product feels a bit too much in my opinion.
How big are the models? If just a few megabytes, why not just check them into the llvm git repo?
The fact that we're talking about "competitors" in the context of hospitals whose job is to save lives is incredibly broken as a non-american.
