Well the issue is finding a therapist you like that is also covered. I just moved and have been looking for a new therapist. All the ones that I’ve been recommended are not part of an insurance network. You can file for reimbursement, but it’s slower and the coverage isn’t as good as in network doctors. I went from a $20 copay for my last therapist to paying $200-300 per session out of pocket (depending on who I go with).

Psychiatrists can have similar issues but you don’t meet with them nearly as often. Once I got on meds that worked for me, we’d have a 30 minute meeting every two months just to check in and see if any adjustments were needed. That was fine by me because I was going to a therapist weekly, the two were aware of each other and would communicate if needed, and it saved both of us time.

But not very precisely. I know who is a lot better than others and who are a lot worse, but the rest are all in the pretty large group that is somewhere in the middle.

Especially because there are also skill differences and the differences in job title and salary that come with that. So the level of difficulty of the work people get to do is also different, and so on.

I'm not GP, but generally speaking rudeness need not be intended (though certainly may have in this case). I love the idea of a Prius and almost bought one (the deciding factor was purchase $ not the car itself). Society at large though definitely reads a lot into you when you own a Prius. That is is illogical and often inaccurate is beside the broader point that society (or car companies or whoever) has done a great job tying identity to type of car.
there is no "in theory", steroids and recovery time are pretty well known, both in research, and via athletes who are, like, totally not doping

example from 1999: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9934411/

> Anabolic steroids may aid in the healing of muscle contusion injury to speed the recovery of force-generating capacity. Although anabolic steroids are considered renegade drugs, they may have an ethical clinical application to aid healing in severe muscle contusion injury, and their use in the treatment of muscle injuries warrants further research.

So thanks to LLM tech it will generate thousands of written report per second? Who is supposed to read those? You already get a lot of auto generated spam emails from all sorts of systems, feels like the LLM revolution will make that way worse.

Hah, nice. A long while back I was interested in building a diffuser system that would rotate between different oils throughout the week. The idea at the time was that each new scent would act as a memory anchor of sorts to reflect back upon. That way when I smell the smell in the future, I'd be flooded with memories of the days that smell was present. Never did it, but it was a fun thought experiment.
you just discovered the 80s?
There are very, very, very few Russian influences on eastern and southern Romania. While Russia did at one point claim the area as its sphere of influence, it never managed to exert any cultural influence. Rather, in those regions, the foreign cultural influences that are not Ottoman are Greek, due to the influence of the Phanariots, and then French due to the massive francophilia of the 19th century. And in fact, even Austro-Hungary arguably had more impact on non-Austro-Hungarian Romania (the Romanian dialects of even those regions abound in loanwords from German and Hungarian) than Russia.
I was quadruple-vaccinated due to being on immunosuppressants, and yet when I finally caught the virus (ironically at a medical science conference) it resulted in a stay at hospital, and now 18 months later I still have rapid heartbeat and heavy breathing after walking up a single flight of stairs, and real trouble concentrating on my work.

For the vast majority of people, yes Covid is on the level of a cold. However for some of us, it's f*** scary. I knew in advance that if I caught it, then it would likely be bad. It's a scary proposition watching the political decisions and individual decisions being made and seeing that the country has basically decided that my life should be written off in favour of a little bit of crowd-pleasing and avoiding mild inconvenience. I have now had 7 vaccines, yet I still have no confidence that I would survive a second infection. That's a level of dread that is unhealthy having hanging over you all the time.

I was teaching at a course a while back, and I saw that the professor in charge of the department running it (who wasn't actually providing any of the teaching and didn't really need to be there) was sniffling all the way through the whole thing, and then a couple of days later I was contacted by an organiser saying that a whole load of people who attended had caught Covid. I could not believe the stupidity from someone who is actually very intelligent. It's an example of very mild inconvenience to just stay at home if you're unwell, because you have no idea if there's someone vulnerable that you're going to infect and potentially kill. I have seen multiple people in the last couple of months visibly unwell, admitting that their other half tested positive for Covid a few days ago, but not believing that they had it themselves and still going out and meeting up with people. That level of wilful ignorance is (in my mind) atrocious in this day and age.

I'm extremely lucky to have a job where I can work from home almost 100% of the time. I can't see this changing in the next couple of years at least. Partly because people believe that "In 2023, COVID is a bad cold/flu".

It does not, and we don't plan to push forward on that, at least at this time.

The thing is, although it is the focus of that article, it would not actually have prevented this attack (the MITM certificate was CT-logged and had a valid SCT extension). SCT checking only makes sense in combination with a CAA record and the assumption that no CA could be legally compelled to issue a CT-logged certificate regardless of the CAA record. As far as I'm aware there is currently no way for the CA to prove the CAA existed (or did not exist) at the time of issuance (I'd be happy for someone to correct me if this is wrong, it feels like a big gap in the model).

Channel binding provides far better security guarantees, and does not depend on any third party. That's our focus for the upcoming release.

I appreciate the scale of the system. If your argument is that such a large system cannot be more bug-free than it is, we can just agree to disagree.

It's not a human right to enter and live in whichever country you desire without a visa. Each country has the right to defend its borders, that's what the border police and the military is for.

Only if you can prove your life is in danger, then you're entitled to asylum in the first safe country you can reach, not 10 safe countries over in Sweden, Germany, UK, or whichever wealthy country you desire to live in once you throw away your passport because you're not from a county at war and you intentionally sink your boat so that the coast guard will be forced to pick you up.

That's how human rights work, everything else is just abusing the asylum systems for personal economic benefit.

The most common one is that leadership wants to make a change but some people won't like it so it's easier to have a consulting firm work out the details, make the recommendation and then leave. Even when the outcome is predetermined, the details still matter, and McKinsey adds credibility.

Also, you can obtain more information about what your competitors are doing in that area, not like illegal levels of information, just, more than you have without them.

Make no mistake, these are all valuable services that large companies will pay a lot of money for.

To be fair, this is something built into the average humanity. If we have learned something from young, it takes very much to change this belief. It can be anything from what is the best programming language to politics, religion or whatever. For discussions with the opposite belief, it easily goes into - "He has been brainwashed" - land. It's very hard to convince someone that they have been wrong their whole life, especially if there has been loads of studies supporting that case.

I put together some notes on applications for Redis 13 years ago which are still surprisingly relevant today: https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2010/redis-tutorial/

That is a false characterization of the discussion.

The specific claim is the low supply or even total lack of women’s clothing with bigger pockets is a reflection of the desires of the market as a whole, not specifically about pocket size, but the entire garment being purchased. This claim is because making and selling women’s clothing with bigger pockets is trivial, so the deduction is that the sellers have experienced insufficient demand if they are not offering it.

The other option is sellers have not picked up on an opportunity to sell a more competitive product, which might be true if buying tastes have changed.

Just look at what you are saying - more despair! :) So many people have made themselves into advocates of despair.

Yes, the concept is that simple, and the action needed by you and me is that simple. Just forget all the doubts and just get to work!

(I don't mean to berate you with the exclamation points. I'm excited by the possibilities. LFG! :) )

If you want to grasp how that could happen, it's just people following social norms. The norm is despair: if you are in a meeting and everyone says such-and-such is hopeless, raising your hand and saying otherwise is not only socially hard but a bit transgressive. My hypothesis is that the status quo powers political messaging has pushed despair - after all, what else will preserve the senseless, unpopular status quo (look at climate change!)? It's the only defense they have.

> Are you arguing for the FAA to remove all safety requirements that have a cost?

No.

> How do you evaluate that cost?

Lots to say here, but let me lead with a general principle: If you can measure the benefits of a regulation but cannot measure the costs, you should err on the side of less regulation. The original sin of cost-benefit analysis is "I can't easily measure contribution Y, so let's assume it rounds to zero".

Here's one possible mechanism: Instead of banning an activity, either (a) put a tax on it equal to (say) 50% of dollar value of the safety harm (using, e.g., statistical value of life) or (b) require the consumer to pay for insurance that pays out a similar amount in case of accident. Then, even if we think the consumer is completely ignorant of the safety costs, they get to weigh the benefits to them of the activity against the financial costs from the tax/insurance, as determined by the regulators.

Remember, the general intellectual justification of safety regulation is "We, the expert regulators, know the safety risks, but the consumer doesn't have enough information. Also, by typical paternalism arguments, it would be insufficient to simply create a Would-have-banned label ( https://mason.gmu.edu/~rhanson/wouldhavebanned.html ). It's very hard for us to estimate the cost of the regulation to the consumer, but based on eyeballing it, it seems smaller than the safety benefits." By taxing the activity at the level the regulators think, in their expertise, reflects the safety cost of the activity, they can let the consumer (who knows the benefits of the activity better) to decide whether the costs outweigh the benefits.

Now, maybe if you implement that mechanism in the real world it turns out to be good or it turns out to be bad. Complicated empirical question. But the over-arching point is that no one even brings things like that up as possibilities. Which is evidence that the alleged justifications for the rules are not the real motivations. (Needless to say, the above suggestion is not new or invented by me; the ideas are just lying out there.)

> When I read it I saw the FAA describing a methodology and argument that counters the "safety at any cost" argument

It doesn't! It accepts the "safety at any cost" argument and then argues that, counter-intuitively, increased regulation reduces safety in this particular case.

It's of course true that if a safety regulation both has costs and reduces safety then it should be removed -- it has no redeeming features. But we should be cognizant that this is an unusually easy situation.

> the "safety at any cost" argument (is that what you call 'safetyism'?)

Yes, that's basically what I mean (although it's of course a complicated social and psychological phenomena that can't be fully summarized in sentence).
