> The more treatments a doctor gives, the more they get paid

You could say this 30 years ago, but it's not really the case today. The majority of physicians are now salaried, not independent. And even for many of the ones in independent private practice, the amount they make is not necessarily tied anymore to the services they provide, due to the rise of capitation and other forms of bundled service agreements.

Nowadays, it's actually statistically more likely that you receive care from a doctor who has an explicit incentive to undertreat, because they receive a fixed amount of money per patient per year, and the costs of treatment come out of pocket directly with no additional reimbursement.
This is awesome, thank you!

I am a noob at soldering but I have done a tiny bit before. Maybe I can get this done after all!
Nobody actually wants to control costs. From doctors to hospitals to insurance companies, everyone but consumers benefit from high prices.
I think the human in the loop evaluation of prompts is a red herring since the LLMs were trained with HFRL, which optimized them to be convincing. Humans aren't reliable for evaluating these things because it was literally trained to make us think it's doing well.

Author here. And by author I mean I created books3 (the books component of The Pile) while everyone else did the hard work of actually writing the paper, ha. Stella and Leo Gao in particular did so much wonderful work on the paper, though it couldn’t have happened without everyone’s contributions.

As far as I know, this was the first academic contribution from a discord collaboration to ML. Back then discord was barely used for ML at all, though nowadays of course the largest discord in the world is midjourney.

There were a bunch of interesting stories from those days. We almost didn’t release at all (or at least the books component) because of fear of copyright backlash. Turns out no one cared, and then suddenly today the world cares a great deal.

As a side note, I’ll be participating in a legal action against Meta for the purpose of making ML models uncopyrightable: https://twitter.com/theshawwn/status/1641804013791215619?s=6.... They DMCA’ed one of my repos distributing LLaMA, so we fought back and challenged the idea that weights can be copyrighted at all. This seems like the best outcome for hackers and individual researchers, for a few reasons. It’s also one of the most ethical outcomes; since ~no one trains on data that they own, they shouldn’t own the resulting model.

One last thing. The Pile would’ve been far less relevant without the wonderful assistance of The Eye, a group of people who archive all kinds of things. They’ve hosted the datasets for years now. And although it seems strange to say that dataset hosting could make or break The Pile, back then there was nobody else willing to host us. https://the-eye.eu/

It has remained quite active since I started using Qubes in 2016. I think when Joanna left day to day work it's possible things slowed a bit but I didn't have enough context since that wasn't long after I started.

Based on hanging out in the support forums it seems like there have been some pretty large groups of new users, honestly I have no idea why many came at once but they did. Of course for a project this small, "large" is relative.

The current work includes making dom0 smaller by delegating the gui to a service Qube.

It was an architectural mistake to start bypassing GLX and depending on DRI at each app, and Wayland wants to cement that. That’s why we see so many webapps where we would have expected remote windows driven by a backend server; Javascript became the GPU-local end of a lot of opaque rendering protocols to fill the gap.
I can see that as a valuable pre-sale sort of approach... hmm I think my hard-and-fast stance is changing.
Thank you, I’m putting together a fixes release right now. Sorry for the trouble
I did that very thing about a year ago when I still had QubesOS installed, and it did not work. There seems to be a lot of misinformation about this swirling around the web. It simply does not work. There is a post somewhere that confirms it but I don't have the link. Unless the QubesOS devs/maintainers made a 180 degree turn since I tried it and decided to start compiling QubesOS with xen nested virtualization enabled, but I doubt it because their reason was that xen's nested virtualization feature is basically broken anyway.
Agree, though I think it can be far simpler. The UI that they recommend is kind of janky, and 50% of users won't want to wade through configuration files. For example, I could imagine a UI that shows you all of your .Desktop files, and lets you drag anything you like into a "jailed" zone in the UI, then gives you basic options. Right click on any of the jailed icons for further configuration.
Not a Qubes user, just a curious reader; what is the issue with this? It sounds like you’re implying that what parent said isn’t practical. I’m curious why?

That's to ensure that the service provided (procedure code) matches the diagnosis.

For example, the procedure (HCPCS) code "71045" corresponds with the procedure "RADIOLOGIC EXAMINATION, CHEST; SINGLE VIEW" for billing purposes.

If you were to match that up with the diagnosis code (ICD10) S80.211 for "Abrasion, right knee" there would be a mismatch between the diagnosis and the procedure. This happens all the time due to human error and often results in insurance denials, which sadly take a long time to fix since now you have to get MORE HUMANS involved.

This is my opinion, so take with a grain of salt:

I believe it's entirely possible that the scientific method breaks down past a certain level of system complexity defined somehow by thermodynamics.

This would in part be due to the infeasibility of running the proper experiments to understand the effects of single variables when tens of thousands of variables might be changing at the micro level.

bubblewrap does this and has been used by flatpak for years. firejail has a lot more features though (which is questionable for a security-critical application, sure), like setting up separate iptables rules, which you would have to do manually with bubblewrap.
So more cameras to catch you slipping up once or thinking you have the "right" to do something, when in reality you don't because it's an airport.

If I miss my flight I'm more motivated to catch the next one, not test my available civil liberties in front of poorly-paid ex-military. Best case you end up detained (in the real sense) for a long time and potentially acquitted in court, months later and having incurred plenty of mental trauma. Worst case you just go to jail.

This is just from eyeballing the top results of some Google searching so may not be super accurate, but it looks like the console games market is around $34 billion a year in the US, $11 billion a year in the EU, and under $1 billion a year in the UK.

The merger has been approved by EU and now US regulators.

The UK market might be small enough compared to the US and the EU that Microsoft and Activision might find it worthwhile to just leave the UK console game market if they had to choose between that and not being able to complete the merger.
I wish instead of charging 100x for random things to pay for the hospital, they'd just charge per minute of room and per minute of doctor contact.

I understand why you need to charge me $2000 to have an entire hospital ready in case I need stitches at 3am. But I get annoyed when you try to play it off as having to charge $85 for an aspirin. Just be upfront and say, we charge $100 a minute and this is going to take 15-20 minutes.
Something I don't see mentioned, isn't our idea of beauty supposed to be heavily influenced by our immediate family? So if we're painting random beautiful people in the background, it wouldn't be surprising that they're loosely based on our family members who would have traits very similar to ours.

Further, with something like the Sofonisba Anguissola self portrait, the virgin Mary being influenced by her mother would explain everything just as well. Even the similar hairstyle could be her copying her mother rather than inserting herself as Mary.
GP doesn't need to, as they said sommelier exams examine on blind tasting. To a level of detail far greater than I could tell you about (though that's largely training I suppose). If someone can't tell that's fine, they can buy whatever they want, but some people can.

(And I don't think many people just start buying expensive wine without ever trying cheaper, surely most start quite cheap, develop a taste for it, and work up to some subjective level of diminishing returns and not wanting to pay more.)

What do you personally want to run on bare metal? I've been using Qubes for 7 years and the only thing I've missed is running MAME since Qubes doesn't do nested virtualization. But I do everything else I need on there - software dev, office productivity, web browsing, email, video transcoding, Spotify etc etc. It's rare I would ever need bare metal. (I'm not a PC gamer though...)
Sure, it's necessary to have some specificity so that providers and insurance companies can be reasonably informed about what's going on, but this stuff has a very real cost. Healthcare providers have entire departments of people dealing with coding. The more complex it gets, the more time consuming and expensive it is to correctly code things. At some point (I suspect well behind us), the added cost isn't worth the marginal benefit.
> The literate coding system they're using (Unu) is a bit primitive, but it's GREAT that they're using one at all.

There’s an old tradition of annotating Forth code with documentation: code would go into even-numbered 64x16-character “blocks”, accompanying documentation into odd-numbered “shadow blocks”, and on e.g. a VGA you could even view them at the same time.
BS. I thought that Java already demonstrated to the world how dumb it is to disallow operator overloading altogether.

Allowing ANY operator to be overloaded was dumb, like C++ did, where you could do batshit crazy stuff like overloading unary & (addressof) or the comma operator (!), or stuff like the assignment operator (that actually opens a parenthesis about how copy/move semantics in C++ are a total hack that completely goes OT compared to this).

Sensible operator overloading makes a lot of sense, especially when combined with traits that clearly define what operations are supported and disallow arbitrary code to define new operators on existing types. Rust does precisely that, and IMHO it works great and provides a much nicer experience than Java's verbose mess of method chaining.

The include is correct.

First, includes either need to be wrapped in angle brackets (for files included from the include path passed to the compiler) or quotes (for paths relative to the current file).

Second, the whole standard library would be huge to pull in, so it is split into many headers, even for symbols in the top level of the std namespace.
Bear 2 Is Here
Because these are world health organisation 'international disease classification' codes that are designed for population health study and happen to be used for insurance billing in the US.

There are requirements for some data to be reported to federal and international organisations. For instance, these codes are also used on death certificates I think, so they can track whether a lot of people are dieing of flu (primary cause) after contact with duck (qualifier) and there is a bird flu outbreak.

There are many coding systems - semi-standard extensions of ICD used to identify very specific types of cancer or the ontology based SNOMED which is rarely used as intended but none the less is becoming the standard.

These codes are used for billing in the US to some extent but also for lots of other things, they are just a standardized set of codes that hospital IT systems use to talk about what is wrong with patients so they can somewhat interoperate - and they are forced to use them by government because the vendors prefer walled gardens over interoperability.

The Lumen Database page lists only domain names of the URLs in the complaint unless you solve a captcha and enter an email address. The full complaint lists https://newpipe.net/ itself, while the chrome.google.com (and addons.mozilla.org, and store.microsoft.com...) URLs are to browser extension pages, and the Facebook URL is the URL of a post that has a link to a Youtube downloader.

The list generally seems to be a collection of things that range from the websites of Youtube downloaders and interfaces to simply mentions of them, including a Wikipedia page about Youtube downloaders and a Trustpilot page of reviews about a website for one.

Item 9, meanwhile, appears to be a completely unrelated Soundcloud track that isn't even connected to the complaint description, but appears to have the URL of a Youtube downloader in the title.

There's nothing that prevents me from implementing all of

plus(Int, Int)
plus(Int, Vec)
plus(Int, Mat)
plus(Vec, Vec)
plus(Vec, Mat)

and to know which `plus` is being dispatched, you need to know the types of both arguments, exactly the same as if `plus` is named `__add__` in python or `operator+` in C++.

I have started to think that much software development has turned into folklore that no one spends time questioning.

Questions like:
"Does using Typescript for your backend make you, the programmer, faster/more efficient?"
"Do I need a full-blown ORM framework to interact with my database?"
"Do I need a runtime with lightweight threads?"

I also have started developing a headache every time someone claims that they are optimizing for developer productivity but cannot articulate the tradeoff they are making.

If you use technologies that cause you to use 20x the hardware, you will need to run complicated DevOps, or whatever we call it, very early.

I have companies with ten concurrent users using Terraform to spin up their microservices in multiple regions on beefy machines. With mental/developer overhead of dealing with the complexity of large distributed systems, YEARS before their company needs the complexity. You are not optimizing for developer productivity; you are just doing random stuff, and claiming that its best practice.

The processors and memory capacity on these things are so antiquated that unless you are printing text in a font that is onboard the printer you are waiting forever for it to "process" the document and then fail because it ran out of ram to be able to fit the page to draw it on to the drum.

Once you get the document processed and into ram, you are then waiting even longer because these printers actually have slow print speed.

All so you can save on some cheap toner and have some sort of perceived "reliability".

Its like those people who tell everyone to just use Linux. Yeah use it...if your time is worth nothing.
Welcome to the world of privatising public services. This has been a scheme of free market politicians for years; call public services too expensive, strip them of funding and hamper them in other ways, then call out how they are not delivering on their promise. Then sell the off at bargain prices, often with additional government guarantees on revenue. After privatisation services don't improve and cost never go down, but somehow the public is better off?
