Coauthor Mattias Ohman, PhD, said that making vaccination appointments for people accelerated uptake in both groups. "Logging on to a website, finding an appointment, booking it, going there and getting vaccinated may have been too many steps for some people," he said.

I will also note that people with poorer cognitive ability may face other barriers as well, such as logistical issues. They may have less money -- which can be a practical barrier even if the shot is free -- may have transportation issues, etc.

I was one of the top 3 students of my graduating high school class, had the highest SAT score and won a National Merit Scholarship to a prestigious school. I'm also seriously medically handicapped and it frequently impairs my cognitive ability.

So I'm both "a smart person" and also cognitively impaired.
> Housing as a vehicle for building wealth and housing becoming unaffordable for the younger generation are two sides of the same coin.

To be sure, there's a distinct difference between housing as a vehicle for preserving wealth vice building it, where the underlying grift of the real estate industry is in having normalized the country to the perverse idea that the latter is both healthy and sustainable.

If dashcams are then so are Tesla's and bigger issue with Tesla is if any of this footage leaves the car. Especially if it goes outside the EU like autopilot disengagements.

This isn't something tne Tesla owner can sign in the ToS because the people in the footage are others. Tesla probably uses the excuse that you the operator are in violation not them but then again a Tesla owner has only limited control over this. I can legally buy a surveillance camera but it is my responsibility to use it legally.
I think that's a great idea. But taxing private flights won't do that much on its own. From googling the other day, flying is 2% of total carbon emissions and private jets are about 1% of that, for 0.02% total.
Gas heating in old construction heats up the water to 80+C. Heat pumps typically result in lower temperatures. This is not an issue in new construction, which often has floor heating or special radiators. But old construction has radiators that struggle to heat up the interior at these water temperatures -- unless you improve the insulation, which is sensible anyway.
This is an effect of Japanese corporations lobbying for copyright legislation, not Japanese "society".

I agree that the word "society" can be used to convey social norms, whether imposed by the general public or a powerful minority, but here it's use is deceptive, because there is a connotation that society at large accepts this application of law as just, and had the practical power to influence copyright law.
> The only meaningful way to realize that extra wealth is to sell

This is true only on first approximation. On second approximation rent prices are positively correlated with property prices. This means that rent_amount / mortgage >>> 1 and if you rent the place out you can essentially get passive income. You are correct that you still need to live somewhere and that is going to come at a cost which will eat up the passive income, but effective rent will still be lower.

Another option is to realize that lower mortgage compared to equivalent rent means that extra cash is freed up towards other things. This can either be extra investments every month, experiences such as traveling the world, or even a lower paying job with a lot less stress.
This is an interesting comparison. I think this depends on the age and habits of a particular user. I mean, I honestly don't like HN's design that much, it looks like a thing from 00's.

If I'm understanding you right, heat pumps can't match the BTU (peak power) output of a traditional furnace? You can't just get a bigger heat pump (or several) sized for a larger building?
I'd also think so. Better insulation should mean lower energy demand for heating (and cooling, but as you might imagine residential AC is almost non-existing in central Europe)

They typical argument given for the focus on memory related bugs is that:

‘{company,Github,bug/cve -tracker} says (following code review | testing)* that 70% of reported bugs/exploits are due to memory management failures.’

I write it thusly, because I don’t actual know or remember all the various permutations I’ve seen. But a few that I can recall being mentioned would be Microsoft and Google, regarding Windows and Chrome (or it could have been the entire Google production code base). But other than these types of statements I can’t recall any support for focusing on memory vs other error kinds. This line of argument has led to developers who class memory ‘unsafe’ languages as objective moral bads (and the development of such to be inherently morally bad) [I was literally told this on HN, in the furor over the announcement of Hare Lang]. I think it’s reactions like this that lead to your usage of the word panicked, but I always try to assume the majority of developers are just using a language they enjoy and getting on with the business of making stuff.

Just as a parting note: I’m not attempting to disagree with the statements by these companies, or with the general premise that memory safety errors result in problems for users of software. I’m slightly ambivalent to the whole thing.

Are you implying that to counter these logic puzzles that GPT4 was specifically trained on logic puzzles so it would know the answers?

In that case, just make new problems. If it is being 'patched' to pass specific known problems, then the new ones would fail.

If it is able to answer them, then maybe it is actually analyzing them and working out the solution.

Not sure how you can assume there was no underlying improvement, and these are cases of feeding it the answers.
The problem is there is no one single solution, but a bunch of them executed in parallel. Which makes sense when everyone globally is treating the atmosphere like an open air burn pit for combustion.
Ammo manufacturers make ammo that's labeled to be spec'd as M1 or M2 ball. You have to look for it but it's not hard to find. Or just roll your own. The specs aren't hard to find online, so long as you also bounce them off a reputable reloading manual and don't just freelance.
> To differ doesn't mean to accept that something is subjective.

Yes it does. That's what subjective means.

Obviously, many people refuse to accept that their personal opinions on political matters are anything less than absolute, immutable, objective fact, but that isn't relevant, because refusing to accept that doesn't make it, or you, objective.

>Even mathematicians have differed about proofs.

Politics isn't math. There is no equation or statement that can quantify the American model of freedom of speech, nor prove it correct, much less more correct than all other models, in the same way as E=MC^2 or Pythagoras' theorem.

Stuff like UBI sounds less insane if that's your alternative, and if it's truly as bad as you're suggesting it is. I wouldn't know the Canadian market well enough but based on armchair knowledge of list prices, paired with the knowledge of lower wages, it doesn't seem too far off.
> In Switzerland you can record crowds and in public but as soon as your footage focuses on a specific person you are violating their rights and require consent which can be revoked any time in the future.

Probably I didn't make this very clear, but in the specific scenario I mentioned, it is legal to record a specific person without their consent but only if:

1. You are interacting with that person, and

2. You don't publish the recording (without the person's consent).

And I think there are other restrictions as well, although I don't remember exactly, e.g. you might be required to delete the recording if it's no longer needed and/or you might only be allowed to record it if you intend to use it as legal evidence and/or you might be required to take reasonable steps to protect the recording (i.e. not allow other people to access it). But again, I'm not sure about these latter restrictions.

Also, there is a distinction between recording someone (or some place) and just keeping the recording vs publishing the recording. The latter has more restrictions than the former, obviously.

Although I have no clue how live streaming fits into all of this, as you're not (necessarily) saving the recording? So I'm not sure how the GDPR laws come into the live streaming scenario, if at all.
If you have more than say like 5 windows, trying to navigate to the desired one can be hellish. Here every windows have it's own place and by remembering it, you can navigate to it very easily.

Because Twitter Blue users get promoted to the top of everyone’s feeds and comments, and historically they just aren’t very bright or clever on average. The end result is Twitter actively making my feed worse to satisfy the ego of people not funny enough to get to the top of feeds naturally.

I use this plugin and it rules, it’s purged thousands of the most annoying people from my feed without me having to lift a finger.
It may not overpower other ISAs but could be attractive from the cost-effectiveness perspective.

Because:

a) Twitter Blue comments are always placed ahead of everyone else but yet their quality is almost always poor. Many popular threads will have nothing but emojis for the first few pages.

b) Alternatives like Threads don't yet have all of the features that Twitter has e.g. hashtags. This is preventing many users from migrating.

The key point is more "an average computer & just sqlite can handle a lot of traffic", and not "if you're handling a lot of traffic, sqlite is probably fine".

Whereas, if you don't have much traffic, you're probably better off going with a simple solution (sqlite on an average computer) than prioritising scalability.

Same experience here. Just got back from a six-day driving trip where my wife and I used McDonalds restrooms without issue multiple times. Some of them were even quite nice, as such things go. But I've also found myself in dire straits in cities, with nothing truly public and the McDonalds/Starbucks all locked down. The most dangerous place I've been in the last several years was an MBTA restroom (I was desperate). So much for "walkable cities" I guess, but good luck finding a proponent who will engage with that aspect.
Yeah as far as residential building tech rehabs Europe is at least 50 years behind. To go into a use an infrared camera and plug it with insulation is easy. There are also geothermal heat pumps that work fine.

Edmond, OK incentives geothermal installs in homes as its lowers the city's peak electricity costs. That said Edmond's average household income is $108k for a 31k households city in one of the cheapest metros in the country so they can afford it.
Isn't that basically increasing the surface area? It makes sense at scale, but couldn't you reach same effect with 50% bigger area anyway? And I would expect that the surface area is already optimised to be close enough to what is needed. So for residential I wonder if there is any real gains there.
For the Californian, you also need to factor in the $10-15k in health insurance costs. That cuts pretty deeply into the $21k surplus.

Any improvements increase the cost basis in the US and reduces the capital gain as well.

I think the 2 bigger taxes difference are:
1. Property tax in Canada is often 80% less than much of the US. (0.28% in Vancouver vs 1.3% in Bay Area, CA vs 2.2% in Austin, TX)
2. Interest on $750k is tax deducible in the US, however with low interest rates, many people just take the standard deduction anyway.

> I said that someone who complains when rust is criticized in a conversation about c++ should complain equally when rust is promoted

Right, this is a straw man. I've never said anything at all about people criticizing C++ and promoting Rust. You're creating an argument out of thin air and attacking it.

> We are discussing a compile time string.

Incorrect. Here is what you said:

> Much more than rust, that’s for sure, where you are forced to stick everything in a macro or pray the compiler is smart for compile time programming.

In no way did you scope it to creating heap allocating strings. Even the post, which ultimately discusses that, discusses other things.

For example, you can write a substr function (firstName) using a const fn in Rust. No macros, no "praying" that the compiler will optimize things.

It would be very odd to limit the discussion to a `string` since this post focuses on how difficult and complex that is in C++, so using it as a "Rust can't even do this" would be sort of ironic.

Anyways, I've engaged in good faith in this discussion for far too long. Your posts are borderline incoherent, frankly, and I think any reader of this thread will have long gotten the message that your initial post was both irrelevant and incorrect.
It's possible they're paving the way for abuse of future technology.

Based on the source link I belive the article writer misunderstood that part. These studies tend to be about the mandatory screening (mustering) process. Back then it was mandatory for all males to go through two days of testing (physiology/medical/intelligence/psychology). Out of these some number where selected for military service.

This is a data goldmine for studies these days since the data can be directly linked to various outcomes later in life on an individual level via their national identification numbers.

tl;dr: Most likely it includes both those that did military service at first and those that went directly to college.

(Source: Am Swedish, did this screening/mustering in 1996.)
To a whole new degree. You want to go to the bar? Car says no because it talked with your health insurance and decided your liver doesn't meet minimum health requirements for beers with friends. Want to take a trip to DC? You criticized a past president on social media once, so you might be a terrorist so cars aren't allowed to take you within ten miles of the district.
That's like saying no deserves economic gains by investing in the stock market. You are complaining you were too young and not rich enough to buy Microsoft or Apple shares from the start and feel you will never catch up to those.

Write your own story. Find a city with home prices similiar to Toronto 40 years buy and wait. Toronto 40 years ago was very different from the city you know. You had farm land, military bases, going to Yorkdale by bus was two bus tickets. Toronto has grown the people who bet on Toronto were rewarded. It could have went the other way if Quebec didn't almost leave Canada which moved invest from Montreal to Toronto. The Toronto stock exchange at the time was mainly mining financing.
Gmail's categories are a pretty reasonable starting place: primary, social, updates, forums, promotions.

All reasonably identifiable by word choices, and often at extremely different urgency / priority levels.

But I would personally also have an "interesting" category for newsletters and whatnot that are more likely to get a full read (newsblur has a weak version of this for my RSS, it's nice). And an "urgent" category that notifies more visibly than others. "Recruiters" is also periodically useful - a bunch of cold emails filled with buzzwords, should be identifiable a mile away.

But underneath it all it's mostly that it confuses me that there's so little ability to experiment here. Shared always-updating spam filters makes sense, but there's a lot of similar things people could try unique to their needs that are just totally unsupported. I don't want better global categorization (gmail), I want personalization. Email is weirdly non-personal in the vast majority of systems, and I suspect it's part of why people burn out on it and switch to a never-ending churn of apps that are a better fit for one piece or another.
Twitter blue users are the lowest tier of content quality on the site. So blocking all of them in one fell swoop is efficient and good.

How expensive? I live in a old terraced house in the UK (no cavity wall, wooden floors open to cellar below). Adapting the house to be suitable for heatpumps is going to require cladding the whole of the house, redoing the floors, replacing the external front door and replacing all the radiators. It's going to cost tens of thousands of pounds.
