They might want to have official support / professional support to do it proper and not somehow.

Right now this option is blocked by governments around the world.

And due to the problem, that the government can't just legalize it without save guard around it, this makes a quite good case that there has to be some government involvement.
Maybe these types of lies spread by the fascist totalitarian anti-freedom vaccine promoting crowd is part of the problem.
That funny. I have one where octal is banned.
A surprisingly large share of people "working in security" are actually just checking boxes, and are very risk averse so resist all change, especially taking out any boxes.
That's cutting off their nose to spite their face. Very disappointing.

> Your zettelkasten should be made up of your ideas about the authors ideas. Linking these notes is what's meant to happen.

If the subject is new to me, I will have few or no valid ideas yet. It'll take several readings to start having some.

In order to start having valuable ideas, I need to keep relevant third-party ideas in my working memory. That's where taking notes and, especially, reviewing them frequently is important.

But it all depends on the purpose. If I don't mean to improve my mastery of a subject in the short term, I can just enjoy and let the experience of reading surprise myself.
There is no logic to your argument.

There is no inherant reason to life.

The biggest issue with this topic is, that it spits in your face if someone else doesn't think lifing is the only answer after becoming aware of yourself.

But lets take a view which YOU might understand: Imagine yourself without arms and legs. Only way to move around is by asking someone else. Every means of eating or switching the tv channel is by asking someone else. That person actually doesn't even like you but its the only option you can afford.

Imagine being kept alive because alive is the main goal of all of things.

Are you aware that if a medic finds a person without arm and legs (and lower body i think), there is a suggestion to try to not helpm them?
So it was outright lie. Pure evil to spread that sort of pseudo-science.
You don't just need to know where the submarines are, you also need to somehow destroy them. And the subs carry missiles with quite a range. I doubt they will "let" their adversaries have sensor networks where they intend to hide.
Completely agree on all points, but wanna add my thoughts:

About sitting with kids: they'd come to you or at least mention if they found out something interesting anyway.

About budgeting: that's a whole course of it's own to be taught.

I know only 2 good solutions about screen time: you have to set the upper limit with mandatory things to do and can virtually lower it by presenting activities that would be genuinely more interesting than the online ones.
It's really hard to override the innate biological need to live. I have a lot of respect for those who have the force of will to actually pull it off. Even if your life is full of nothing but misery it is hard to actually do.
Here's my thoughts.

> - What fraction of their online time should I sit with them?

I try to spend any time I'm not doing something like housework or whatever with my kid. But ultimately (and you're going to hear this repeated) I ask her if I can join. I will state "ok I've finished my chores can I come and hang out with you?" She usually says yes. But I make sure to emphasize that I was doing chores as to give context and to also normalise the idea that when you do chores there's no tv or anything else. (music is fine)

> - Do I play all video games with them or should they have some of "their own"?

I let my daughter drive this... Almost always she wants me to play a multiplayer game with me. But about 20% or more she wants to play something by herself. So I give her that space.

> - Do I give them the ability to do online purchases?

Yes and No... We have a calendar on the wall, and every night before bed we do a ritual.. if she was a good girl she gets to color in the day green, if she wasn't good, then she colors it in red. If there's less than 5 red days then she can chose something to have... Last month was a pokemon game for her switch.

That said... I have setup our online consoles so if she wants to buy something it sends me a message, and I approve it. This never happens, as I do the purchasing. But it's an option you can consider.

Finally on our Xbox, Game pass is amazing.. she knows if she sees something in game pass she's free to download it and play..

> - Do I allow them to use up all of their money even as a mistake, or do I set up a limit?

Depends on the age of the kid. If they understand the idea of money, you should probably setup goal oriented systems.. so do X and get $Y, it's important for them to learn how to earn money, and the value of money.

If they are too young to understand money.. then a behaviour based system such as my red day green day calendar system.

> - Do I limit their "screen time" (hate that term) or will that prevent them from interacting with their friends in the way they would want to?

No, screen time is a stupid fear a bunch of people have. It's just the next dumb panic. Our grandparents had it when our parents were put in front of the TV. I'm guessing if you go back far enough there was probably panics about kids sitting in front of the radio.

Screen time is dumb. However the real issue is what they are doing..

There should be some educational component.... BUT remember that everyone needs downtime.. you cannot expect your kid to go 100% education all the time....think about us at work, we need to browse the web or table tennis or whatever to have a mental break. So do kids.

I think OP's main point is that the majority of the regulated process is not necessary for his project. I would guess OP went through the whole process, and felt that the checks and examinations probably did not do much good to himself or the future home buyers. Thus the outrageous cost becomes an issue, because with the cost, the value is not justifiable.

As for pharmacist, I would totally agree that modern medicine is exponentially more complex than 30 years ago, and that's in a good way: the mechanism of how the medicine works are more advanced, variety increases exponentially, cost is down and more people are using more medicines.

Comparably, building a house has not been much different than what's in 1970s. Aside from newer materials in components, the house building is largely equivalent to what's in 1970s.

'readily' we are not talking about the sucidie booth from futurama.

Sorry but please try to avoid creating a strong opinion if you haven't even thought about the issue in hand in more indempth than 'readily'.

Btw. for further thoughts: Imagine that getting sucidie support takes 3 years. It involves different doctors, mandatory therapy and than you have the approval to do so.

Wouldn't you think this would potentially even lead to more people NOT killing themselfs? Basically helping people to commit suicide as a form of preventing sucidie?

I would believe so.

No one just kills themselfs. The same reasoning btw. (i know it wasn't mentioned but out of personal expierience i just wanna mention it) its the same with abortion. No one just does an abortion.

A great example of how such basic CS knowledge can save weeks or even months of time wasted was posted here on YC News: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22459661#22460040

The OP proudly showed off a custom B-Tree implementation for a problem where a sorted array and binary search would be far simpler and much faster in practice.

Applying even a smidge more CS knowledge could have resulted in using Netwon's Iteration as the lookup, which is the almost perfectly optimal solution: just one random I/O to do a lookup even with a cold cache!
Bit of a tangent, but the 'mutually assured destruction' meme is a cold-war-era concept relying on some strong assumptions - namely that any country would be able to credibly claim that they could take out US strike capabilities in the first place.

Russia claims to have inherited that capability from the Soviet union, but that claim looks increasingly suspicious, with the war in Ukraine exposing not only systemic corruption in the Russian military, but also near-total failure on the intelligence front: officials were lining their pockets with funds destined to maintain and enhance military capabilities, and Russian generals were greeted with precision strikes upon arrival in Ukraine. If they can't keep their sh*t secret from Ukraine, how could they hope to keep a nuclear launch order secret from the US? A nuclear arsenal also requires expensive upkeep to remain functional, money that might also have been used to buy fancy appartments and yachts in London, Cyprus,... At this point it's questionable whether Russia would even be able to launch a succesful first strike and not see it intercepted by the US (they might still be able to land more than zero succesful strikes, but taking out US strike capabilities is a wholly different ball game).

Of course it's possible that other players might rise to be a threat, but basically I'm saying we should first check how realistic the scenario is before analyzing the whole situation through the lens of those overly simplified game theory models.

One of the fields I work in is science, and I'd say that 'selling-out' and 'promoting yourself' have always been two different things here, but it has seen similar cultural shifts as others have talked about.

Self-promotion can be very important in science, and I think it can be driven by an enthusiasm and belief that you have something important to say that would help others in their research.

Selling-out had a similar negative connotation in the 90s. Andrew Wakefield had 'sold-out' by associating himself with a business that severely undermined his authenticity. These days, cash-strapped universities encourage researchers to hawk themselves to nearby industry in the hope they can get funding and commercial interest, and many researchers are paid to stand up and talk about commercial products. Science very much relies on speaking honestly and in an balanced way, and combining this with financial interest adds extra strains to integrity.

Perhaps an answer to one version of your question is that the Tarski–Seidenberg theorem implies that Euclidean geometry is decidable: there exists an algorithm that finds a proof for any theorem of Euclidean geometry. This algorithm, however, is too slow to be practical in general (double exponential time). The proofs it finds definitely don’t correspond one-to-one with the constructions in any reasonable sense.

The compass encodes a constant-radius constraint, and the string encodes a sum-of-distances constraint, but it’s not at all obvious why these two constraints turn out to be the same under a uniform stretching. There are plenty of similar-looking hypotheses that turn out to be false (for example, a curve of constant offset to an ellipse looks a lot like an ellipse but isn’t one).
> Now go outside and start pointing firearms at people or taking hostages and you will probably be getting some SWAT attention.

The article from The Week has a WaPo source that has more detailed data on SWAT deployments in Maryland [0];

"Since the law passed in 2009, the data have consistently shown that on average there are about 4.5 SWAT raids each day in Maryland."

"• Prince George’s County alone averaged well over one SWAT raid each day in 2012 (510 in total)."

"In 2012, nearly 90 percent of the SWAT raids in Maryland were to serve search warrants."

"• Half the SWAT deployments in 2012 were for “Part II” crimes, the nonviolent class of crimes. The vast majority of those raids were to serve search warrants on people suspected of drug offenses."

So not really a lot of "pointing firearms at people" but apparently a lot of war on drugs.

Also; Around 51 deployments in Maryland didn't serve search warrants, tho it doesn't detail it further what they instead did.

Everyone's is. Politics is tribal, not logical. Take every single political tribe in the history of humanity, starting with Ancient Greek city polities and ending with modern democracies, Russia and the Islamic state, and examine their beliefs. Contradictions are rife.

I have personally experienced in the past (not now I am not a danger to myself or others) an inability to accurately discuss my current state of mind with my doctor out of a fear I would be involuntarily deprived of my liberty. Most people don't want to be locked up, but it serves neither party when you have a fear of discussing your actual symptoms.
Interesting that the only king they can identify is Mansa Musa, and that he keeps popping up on the maps. Given how poorly documented Mansa Musa's reign was, and that the main sources are a small number of Muslim accounts of his Hajj written by people who weren't there when it happened, it seems that to Europeans he was a quasi-legendary and prototypical African king (perhaps similar to the completely legendary Prestor John).

Though I suppose Mansa Musa is held in similar regard today. He's usually the first medieval African ruler I see people bring up, and they often repeat the poorly sourced legend of him being the richest person in history as if it were fact (even this article repeats it).
> The fact that the insurance company can negotiate the bill to $500 indicates what the real price is.

That really depends on your definition of "real price", particularly considering how in a lot of developed countries that'd still be considered a pretty outrageous price to pay for such a situation, particularly while even having insurance.
Really, because:

Let me do the math...

$0+$0 = $0

Seems pretty cheap to me.

Maybe if you mean for gov who pays, but even then, in terms of health care budget, its still quite cheap, to the point that optimizing on price seems like the wrong thing to do right now.
So, how do you get large energy conglomerates and oligopolies from neglecting this infrastructure?

Several things I miss from Ruby/Rails

1) An interactive shell. It's sometimes super convenient to run Rails c and just call whatever worker or model method you want...not really doable in Go.

2) Ruby's Enumerable. Even with Generics, manipulating and finding elements or sorting collections in Go is much harder and more verbose than Ruby. In web apps we do only this most of the time.

3) Rails. I just miss one big batteries included framework. No such thing in Go afaik.

4) Expressiveness. There is no ternary operator in Go for example, as the philosophy of Go is to reduce language keywords as much as possible. As a result you generally have more code and are less expressive. While there are pros to this I personally see this as more of a con.
> Sure, nuclear is better in some dimensions. But along the "short term deployability" dimension, it's just not in the running.

I've heard the exact same argument in favor of Nuclear. As I understand, the argument is that renewables need a grid-scale storage solution to be viable as a complete solution to our energy needs, since wind and the sun are not consistent and reliable everywhere. That solution doesn't exist yet, so we need to supplement renewables. If we have to do that, Nuclear is a better option than fossil fuels.
Ah have to be careful mentioning Falun Gong now. No one seems to understand that until the CCP crackdown it was a harmless group of old people.
