I mean, I gave up on Facebook long ago to be honest, but this is a news aggregator website that is specifically about sharing links to articles of news or interest.

Facebook... I mean... it wasn't pitched to be that? It was supposed to connect you to each other, not be an algorithmic view into the universe. Sure, sharing news can be a big part of that, and talking about news too, but every site doesn't have to be everything.

Why would my personal social group (i.e. facebook friends) make sense to combine with the random strangers on here who discuss technical posts? Sure there's some overlap in audience but it just doesn't seem like a necessary compromise to make.
The children's mortal remains are reassembled in a lab which is called at some locations, "POC Lab" or "Pieces of Children".

When a so-called medical professional is trained and skilled in decapitating a human, snipping her delicate, half-developed spine with scissors, dismembering her with long-handled forceps and scalpels, and then suctioning out every last trace of the "clump of cells", that sort of takes a moral toll on them.

For Kermit Gosnell, it was only a logical progression for him. He routinely performed "late-term abortions", that is, children who were capable of surviving, and living well, outside the womb. So Gosnell once in a while had a dilemma where a child would be delivered, still alive, still breathing and begging to live. Gosnell's impeccable medical training took charge of the situation, and he snipped her spine and tossed her into the Biohazard Bin all the same.

Kermit Gosnell benefited immensely from technology. He had ultrasound to guide him so he could perform a "safe abortion", that is, not harm the mother physically while he ripped the infant out of her belly. He had sterile tools and an autoclave where he and his staff could easily clean the blood and gore off the instruments so that they would not infect the next mother, or Gosnell himself. Isn't technology wonderful? That big ol' Biohazard Bin and the Stericycle Van that came to pick up barrels full of human remains, they have good technology too; their supply chains are down to a science, and they will clean up any serial killer evidence that Gosnell might have left behind. If only Gosnell would've done something about the adult witnesses.
I find it funny that this site is speaking about others, but itself is worse: you just can't see the contents of the article, which is laying behind 4 layers of ads, including a video and a half-screen-high banner.

Yeah. It's like a never ending stream of bug reports coming in constantly and you have like ten minutes to make sense of each and every one amidst that chaos and do something about all of it because if you don't there isn't gonna be enough time to see them all and the godlike AI's operating system is gonna start killing the buggiest of the processes assigned to you before you've even figured out what's wrong and when that happens the report is closed forever and there's nothing you can do anymore. The same bugs show up in the programs over and over again every single day and there's no permanent solution, no permanent fix at the source code level that would end the suffering of all of those programs. Just constant swimming against the current. You don't even fully understand the system you're trying to fix, it's like ancient technology left to you by a long gone alien civilization and the best you can do is reverse engineer bits and pieces of it from the outside in and top down so you can do some very educated guesswork based on research that's way too expensive to be reproduced or replicated in any way, research that doesn't produce exact predictions like physics but rather purely statistical statements like "in case of A associated with conditions B if you do C you'll fix D% of the programs". Everything is framed like this, everything, you're never fully certain, everything has risk, there's even a chance the research you're basing all of this on is just completely made up or tainted by conflicts of interest or something equally stupid.
Yes, wanted to write the same. I met many of those experts, and some of them try even blame the patient as some kind of "psycho" when the symptoms dont match any text book definitions.

Phone numbers quickly adopted USB-C. In fact, phone makers themselves formed a group together with other tech companies and created USB-C. It had nothing to do with the government.

Heck, even Apple was slowly transitioning to USB-C and they would have eventually used USB-C for the iPhone regardless of EU laws.

I disagree with this. Arguably, removable batteries are more dangerous.
> I've posted this before, but I went to a new dentist one time and though I'd never had a cavity, the new dentist said I had nine, some of which were pretty bad and needed immediate treatment lest they require a root canal.

Once I saw a new dentist who also told me I had several cavities. Look, my teeth health isn't perfect, but any dentist that tells me I have so many cavities is a big red flag. I ended up seeing another dentist and that dentist told me I didn't have any cavities. The inconsistency between dentists is really off the charts (per TFA).

Also this quote from the article was telling:

> At a dental school, I heard about a newsletter, The Profitable Dentist, and became a subscriber. From this newsletter, I discovered that there’s a whole business devoted to telling dentists how to build up the “million dollar practice.” Dentists are flocking to courses on how to generate more profits by maximizing the use of hygienists, extending credit, stepping up collection practices, and persuading patients to accept expensive restoration work instead of fillings.

Look for any dentist trying to increase their bottom line: patients are not idiots. If a dentist tries to upsell me aggressively, I simply find another dentist. The reality is there are nearly endless dentists to choose from in my metropolitan area.

I find the best layout for English and German to be "German (US)". It has been such a revelation. I enjoy the comforts of accessible braces while the occasional umlaut (or greek letter) is only an AltGr away.

I imagine there might be people who don't code but write a lot of German texts. They might need umlauts far more often than braces and the native "German" layout might be more sensible. Otherwise, I despise the German layout.

Only if the system does not have any other concurrency primitives, and if events are not recursive. Either will break your event system in ways people have trouble understanding.

At one point in my career I’d seen and heard this failure mode so often I swore never to use one again. I don’t mean never use events, that would not be “crazy like a fox” but just regular crazy. I mean not as the organizing principle. When event dispatch is small, isolated islands of state, then the isolation prevents this from happening.

When it’s central and everyone is convinced to use it, then errors accumulate. No one can watch all parts of the system for nasty bugs. We pick our battles. But when all parts of the system (can) touch the same thing, then you have to assume everything touches everything else.

If you take the right snippets out of what I just wrote, you might think I was talking about global shared state. Which it pretty much is.

Yes, they do. Many people don't get the point across that Java is like C and C++, there are plenty of implementations.

Anecdotally there have been several weird management pushes in my own employer “make sure everyone shows up for meeting X” that felt alarming at first. And when I asked a friend what was going on, the answer was that because they’d just leased this building pre-covid there was leadership push to use the space so it didn’t look like a mistake/waste. And it was just various wires getting crossed by ineptly delivered messages from middle management, not a hint to be sure to show up cause they were dropping layoff notices or something.

And likely with the market right now you can’t exit a lease or sell a building without taking massive losses, cause nobody else wants commercial real estate either.

So what I’m saying is, there’s often quite a lot of internal push at these companies to avoid realizing losses/making the COO look like an idiot/etc. It’s not just “blackrock wants them to”, although I’m sure that exists at the government levels etc. There is also broad corporate level resistance to the idea of realizing losses and taking blame for real-estate investments that are now underwater.

Not that anyone in 2019 could have predicted that the nature of the workplace would fundamentally change 6 months later.

Funny to see that the pins are the author's biggest problem with Google Maps.

Google seems to have started using some kind of automation to generate maps several years ago and quality just went to utter shit. In my city, there are buildings that overlap a river. They're there since at least 2020 and no one tried to fix that. When I traveled to Dubai this spring, it was even worse — only the streets on Google Maps somewhat matched reality, but buildings were some arbitrary shapes strewn around.

This kind of product quality is something that I'd be too shy to show to an office janitor, yet Google — a multi-billion-dollar company — somehow deemed it appropriate to ship this abomination to production.
Some of the implications, as far as I know:

1- A pure fusion weapon would be a "clean bomb", meaning it wouldn't emit long term radiation. Good, but bad because someone might be more willing to use it.

2- A pure fusion weapon wouldn't require a critical mass. In theory, the laws of physics don't preclude something that is really compact.

3- A pure fusion weapon would use deuterium, which is just a byproduct of heavy water. Anyone can get, or make the stuff inexpensively.

Granted, we're probably a century away from this kind of tech but if we keep getting superconductor and fusion breakthroughs it will come around sooner or later. Hopefully society will have advanced to a point where we are prepared to handle it.
Well, your take also seem pretty naive. Salaries in non-regulated jobs are a function of supply VS demand, that's pretty much all.

I would say office work does not actually pay more, it depends. Easy office-hand jobs probably pay much less than your previous job... but when it does pay more, it's simply because there's fewer people willing and capable of doing that job as a rate of the number of people actually needed for such tasks.

When a job is regulated (requires license, or is protected by some law etc) the equation is skewed, usually in favour of a profession.
Seems like no collision is detected if you move the ball through the cloth fast enough.
If your website appears on the search results of Google and they show ads next to it, aren't you entitled to that revenue too?

>men feel like they paid and should therefore receive

Way to simplify something very complex. What do you expect men to do, quit trying everything and leave it up to fate? Keep up with women's magazines changing their minds by the day and chasing trends to get women to buy things they don't need? Accept the tax of women casually demanding 100+ bucks a date just to have a chance? Wait for them to socially atomize themselves even further to the point of 'maybe you should pick hobbies with more women instead of your own circles filled with men'? Oh wait, that last one also has the caveat of 'if you do it just to meet women, you are a creep'.

About everything in the world, people have expectations for putting in effort and others root for their success. This is the one topic society has gone nuts about chastising men, while both encouraging women to demand more and encouraging the same aggressive approach. Even just saying

>nobody asked for, like going to the gym a lot

shows you're completely out of touch with the younger generations, given the increased demands in muscularity and fitness. Seriously, the women themselves are saying it and have been saying it for decades now.

The western world has gone completely mad in regards to dating, but the most vocal party can only shout 'men bad' no matter what they do beyond being a complete doormat with zero expectations.

> If C++ is so good why does it need to be constantly updated and extended?

You could make that argument about almost any technology (certainly in the IT world).
C23 is out this year which will make it the 6th "official" version - obviously a much more slowly evolving language than most, but nonetheless still being fairly regularly "updated and extended".

There's plenty of things I don't care for in C++, but I can (and do) choose not to use those parts. The few times recently I had to work with pure "C" code felt, well, decidedly primitive - but there was no choice but to grin and bear it. Which works great for some contexts, but I'm not sure I can imagine tolerating it for large-scale application development.

Epic was a 10m+ loc vb6 app in the 90s.

That said, lots of the problems with Epic is it is used so differently between hospitals/installs. It's less a EMR + scheduler + hospital management app than a toolkit used to construct those for big enough medical companies. That inevitably doesn't lead to nice software: see all enterprise software everywhere.
