> Hell, W61.61XA is the medical code for "Bitten by duck, initial encounter." Presumably, this means there's also a code for "Bitten by duck, again."

All this means is "first visit", as in "I need immediate attention for this", and "subsequent encounter" doesn't mean "another duck" it means "follow up for X, but it's already been 'counted' (and presumably the care is less acute)" (i.e. for statistical purposes, "X,000/year people bit by ducks".

I'll byte: complex numbers and matrix support is bad in languages without operator overloading. Why should only the primitive types of the language be privileged to proper math notation?
My first piece of advice: don't take advice from random people on the internet :)

My second piece of advice: technologies are just tools. Once you are competent in the foundational concepts of why the tool is needed, and how it is used, you are better situated to learn different tools to accomplish similar goals. So, focus on the domain and problem you want to solve. If you like the domain and become good at understanding the problem space and solution paths, then different tools can help you.

My third piece of advice: Once you grok the domain, then you can choose roles/jobs that align with the domain. If a company is only looking for 'Excel/PowerBI' folks, it's probably going to be a boring place to work. If the company is looking for someone to help them solve their problems, and are flexible in the tool space, it's probably going to be more interesting for you.
This is the second time today on HN I've heard someone claim that the brain is an "interpreter". Someone even went as far as to cite Wernicke's area, followed by a sly winky face, as if they're not supposed to know that.

Wernicke's area isn't an "interpreter" in the CS sense. It's not a compiler either. Or a transpiler. It's not "converting" from one language to another, because language is a man-made construct.

I'll prove this by taking the counterargument - let's say {insert brain area that a well-educated engineer happens to know about} IS an interpreter. What would you think of an interpreter that runs totally differently on every single machine in existence, for no perceivable reason? It's a pretty shit interpreter right? I'm not talking about a few bits difference here and there, I'm saying that when I read Moby Dick, I understood the book completely differently from a close friend.

You could perhaps argue that everyone has their own separate interpreter built into their brain, for compiling to their own unique machine instruction set (the connectome). At least that way software engineers can feel like they've inherited an understanding of neuroscience without having studied the field.
That does make more sense, but I refuse to let go of the image of a duck with a vendetta tracking some poor bastard down, and the stalwart medical coding technician who is dutifully documenting it all.

The irony here is that everything that surfaced makes him the very person you'd want to be learning about the subject from. He's not being dishonest in being an expert on dishonesty-- he is clearly familiar with the topic if he's being accused of it himself. If true, the man walks the walk, so we'd benefit from listening to him talk. This is one of those "trust but verify" situations. If it can't be verified, do not trust. Ariely will not be the last case of this in our lifetimes.

Much more effective than endless pontificating and theorizing by people who have no idea what the fuck they're doing but haven't publicly fucked up yet so we trust them in reverence of their credentials. The amount of institutionalized deception that has permeated the field of psychology since its inception should scare anybody away from ever taking it seriously.

Not true. Their debugger might display the value of the variables, which are unused outside the debugger. There are other options in Rust though, like logging. Create your "unused variable", and then use it in a debug log or dbg macro, etc.

I commented something similar when the first Nothing Phone was released and people generally had rather hostile responses, but it would appear that the marketing hype has worn off. Influencers in particular was hyping that thing, while completely failing to explain why it was special... It's a riced up Android phone, and an ugly one at that.

For the Nothing Phone 2, I'm quite happy to see a focus on sustainability, but sadly that part is drowned out by the flashy nonsense.
Even better is to just use Clickhouse (maybe Kafka if there are lots of inserts and async_insert isn't sufficient) and Postgres.
> That's really interesting, because I had a customer that did nothing but provide medical billing services, and about 15 years ago when the industry was moving from ICD-9 to ICD-10, that customer seemed really focused on their billing coders learning ICD-10.

I mean, sure? You can't bill for a service without a diagnosis code that justifies the service. Anyone who does medical billing is going to need to be able to format that data. But ICD codes are not the codes that insurers are billed for - billing codes are completely separate and not even determined by the same party.
Medical billing coder is one of the most bullshitiest of bullshit jobs. Even when I was chatting with a coder a while back and she was explaining to me, a programmer, her job. And in the back of my mind I'm thinking, "I'm sorry, but why does this job exist?" I guess in the government's battle against medical fraud they have created a convoluted system that is even easier to defraud.

I don't quite understand why everyone is so bothered by the extensive ICD taxonomy; it clearly needs to be extremely extensive to cover even fairly common scenarios, and once you're past the point that things can be easily managed why not cover everything?

Definitely, but they are implementing Raft-based transactions which provide higher consistency. That should enable a higher variety of use cases.

‘Running the government like a business’ is and was the biggest crock of shit ever sold.

Anyone who has worked at large corporate bureaucracies knows they are just as slow and rule bound as government departments and in many ways worse. At least there are some well motivated people in government.

I believe you're confusing Rust with Go. In Rust, an unused variable is just a warning, unless you explicitly asked the compiler to turn that warning (or all warnings) into an error.

There are ways to get it running without an IOMMU, mostly involving making your NetVM and such paravirtualized. You just lose basically all of the hardware isolation benefits there. But for playing around, especially on a trusted LAN, you should be able to get it working. If you can't figure it out, jump on the IRC channel - there are a few people in there pretty good at weird hardware hacking for Qubes.
That's because it tends to break every program that wasn't built to run in a sandbox. There are (bad, ultimately) reasons why sandboxing is hard unless the ecosystem and toolchains have been built from the ground up to run a program in a sandbox.

For example, any dynamically linked program that needs to spawn a subprocess using a command that it doesn't ship alongside itself is going to cause problems in your sandbox. That turns out to be the vast majority of programs that have been shipped in the FHS universe for the last few decades. It's only recently that sandboxing has come into vogue.

And the OS's that do a good job (like MacOS) get a bad rap from both developers and users who are mad their programs can't do what they want them to do because they don't have unfettered access to the filesystem any more.
If we go back to the original example. Some hotel booking aggregators still show the fake "Looking for best deals..." popup or screen. The largest aggregator Booking.com doesn't show any such thing, but instead loads the results as fast as it can.

As for disorienting, there are ways to avoid that without slowing the user down - I think in almost every situation or use case.

I do wonder if the birds regret making their nests out of those spikes?

I'm sure it seems like a strong base for a nest to begin with, but when the metal spikes poke into your underside and eggs I suspect you may reconsider. But I don't think reconsidering is an option with a birds nest - after all, to remove those spikes, you're probably going to destroy the whole nest and have to start over - something impossible once you've already laid some eggs into it.
I think an airport is probably one of the least worst places: a very public place with lots of witnesses and cameras, plus its own relatively relaxed police force.

... Except the fact that printf/scanf use variadics, and the only reason why it stopped being a constant source of crash is the fact that compilers started recognizing it and validating format strings/complaining when you pass a non-literal string as a format.

<format> is instead 100% typesafe. If you pass the wrong stuff it won't compile, and as {fmt} shows you can even validate formats at compile time using just `constexpr` and no compiler support.

A simpler and more rational explanation, is that they're trying to overwhelm the adversary.

The insurance company, its claims department. If you can't ever compare two medical treatments because they're never similar, let along identical, then any price at all might be attached to these.

The consumer hands over a laminated card and says "I have insurance". No one's overwhelming him. He's not even really a party to the transaction. Not until the insurance company denies the claim, at least.
Printf is fine until you have to deal with the "f".

Some compilers can keep format strings type-safe, but they are going above and beyond the standard to make it happen.
Yes, it is incorrect. Some UX designs even try to make you feel like something happens instantly when it is not. Best example I can think of is that Spotify used to have this animation on the play button that was just there to hide the delay between click and play.
> LLMs are significantly slower than traditional ML, typically costlier

Literally point 3 in the article.

> But, they are zero/few shot classifiers

This is __NOT__ true. Zero-shot means out of domain, and if we're talking about text trained LLMs, there really isn't anything text that is out of domain for them because they are trained on almost anything you can find on the internet. This is not akin to training something on Tiny Shakespeare and then having it perform sentiment analysis (classification) on Sci-Fi novels. Similarly, training a model on JFT or LAION does not give you the ability to perform zero shot classification on datasets like COCO or ImageNet, since the same semantic data exists in both datasets. I don't know why people started using this term to describe the domain adaptation or transfer learning, but it is not okay. Zero-shot requires novel classes, and subsets are not novel.
And "anything untrusted" includes "any use of the internet."

Browser escapes are cheap enough and common enough that we've seen malware delivered through advertising networks before.
If you consider how ~1:18 is considered visually lossless for x.264, a compression of 1:3 is very very likely can be achieved visually lossless indeed.
It also feels like these codes are also closer to stated preference data than revealed preference data. “Given this permutation of factors, we’d choose to bill X, but insurance companies dictated we actually paid Y.”

Would be neat to see both kinds of rates with billing codes and actual billed procedures. Guessing there aren’t petabytes worth of actual procedures either.
I always preferred "The cure is worse than the disease." for a metaphor describing US healthcare billing.
Clickbaity article. The question really is, why should I care about resource optimization for a tiny program when the total available resources on my computer is hundreds of millions of times greater?

Now multiply that by thousands of tiny microservices, all crufted together into a massive web 3.0 app, and you end up with the landscape of modern web development.
I think the complaint most folks have for people posting ChatGPT responses is that it adds nothing 'human' to the conversation.

It's sort of like copy and pasting a wikipedia article into a comment, which in itself isn't necessarily wrong. The 'wikipedia' comment however does comes off as an impersonal PSA that also happens to be citing a newfangled encyclopedia that makes an easy target for ire.

If you care to accommodate those who seemingly don't care to accommodate you, try phrasing your messages connect it in some way to the conversation with a couple of sentences about how that information changed your perspective or helped you understand something. That way, rather than making an announcement containing the definition of a word or concept, you're participating in the discourse as an active participant.

I came so close to getting my dataset DebateSum (https://huggingface.co/datasets/Hellisotherpeople/DebateSum) into the pile, but they decided at the last minute not to add it: https://github.com/EleutherAI/the-pile/issues/56

I'm still a tiny bit salty about that, but the pile is a wonderful dataset regardless.
It's like using different technologies to protect against nuclear waste leaking from storage. Each plausibly suitable layer of a different sort makes a leak less likely.

Post-quantum algorithms are, as yet, young and very possibly poorly understood. They may even offer no security at all (due to presently unseen flaws); therefore as a hedge against that include at least another currently in use and current best practice algorithm so that at least _that_ level of security is retained.

Plus, as I pointed out several replies ago, if the current (and fast since reasonable key size Elliptic Curve based) algorithm is the outer layer it can be validated quickly which is a better guard against denial of service attacks and other poor fakes.

Freemium pricing is always a tricky balance. Your free tier should provide a modicum of value to entice people into installing your software, but ideally, it will also incentivize the users that are getting value from your efforts to remunerate to a degree that is reasonable and comfortable for them.

I recall, on first encountering Literate Haskell at some point after 2010, mentally comparing it to something I thought I recalled from earlier in the perl ecosystem (on top of being vaguely aware of Knuth's stuff, although I hadn't actually read up on it at that point - at this point I have a copy on my desk).
I've been using it to wrap nodejs package managers in response to all malware shipped through them over the past few years. A simple wrapper script like this works fine (symlinked to `npm`/`yarn`/`pnpm` into whatever directory is the first in $PATH):

It gets read-write access to the current path, and to its own copy of ~/.cache and ~/.local/share. It doesn't see anything else from your home directory, including any adjacent projects. It can easily be locked down further by allowing read-only access to the project, and read-write access to node_modules and nothing else.
Hiding the actual logic in extra boilerplate doesn't make it easier to read.

The lines of code in the example save reader's time as they focus attention on the actual business logic.

Yes, this assumes that operator overloading follows some convention, but you need to follow conventions regardless to make readable code.
Its touching that you are concerned about the fair treatment of a handful of overbearing oligopolies that like to "move fast and break things".
