Except, if it's tax funded the hospital does not need to generate revenue to enable that goal. It can focus on saving lives, and maybe even do preventative care which lowers overall health costs for society by dealing with problems early on. As a society, that saves money, leaving everyone better off

This is a far cry from the AT days when you could swap the motherboard power connectors and let all the magic smoke out. Those were the days. I never did it myself, but I watched a guy who was doing a working interview for a job (to be fair I was doing the same!) smoke a computer that way during his interview. They hired him anyway, and they also hired me. It ended up being the worst job I'd had to date. I don't miss the crappy computer shops of the late 90's. The good ones though, those were gold.
The irony is that the same argument would work against Make in the description further up vs other build systems like CMake etc.

The travel ban is a toothless gesture precisely because you can’t bar a citizen from entering the US. Now if they said they’d prosecute any US citizen settlers that would be much more effective. I looked but could not find any instances of that happening, however.

> were invented with publicly-funded research that they’ve now privatized, resulting in large death tolls from vaccine inequity in poor countries

This is an odd complaint for this circumstance.

Those poor countries didn’t materially fund these vaccines’ development. And production was fundamentally constrained; nations entered into bidding wars to secure them. In the end, geopolitics dictated which vaccines—if any—poor people got. Covid vaccines were distributed through non-market channels.

These are more mundane than the average.

I heard the phrase "Nutrient harvesting" on a no-dig gardening channel. Helped me reframe the mundane task of weeding in my garden. I'm now instead gathering nutrients for my plants as either local mulching or composting and it became a much more meaningful task.

"The way your childhood shaped you is an adaptive reaction to your environment that searched for the optimal solution to survive."

This is a reframing for bad or unwanted patterns you learned through childhood and still doing. Helped me forgive myself and accept the unwanted behaviours as something that was once necessary to stay afloat.

240VDC is way too dangerous for residential use. And really it's not super practical to drop that down to 5v for charging your widgets. 48V makes much more sense.

And for that matter, I wouldn't want 240VDC on utility poles either. If a line goes down, it's so much more dangerous.

The more sane solution would be a high capacity DC converter installed next to the line transformer that feeds your street. DC infrastructure inside the home makes total sense at moderate voltages. City scale DC at line voltages is honestly terrifying.

Free market would automatically cause a big influx of money.

A "big influx of money from all countries in the world" - if from governments themselves and not individual citizens buying - would in fact be a proof point against its claimed effectiveness, if forcing the otherwise free market (via easily-commonly captured political-government-institutional channels) is what's required to drive funding towards it, e.g. regulatory capture to provide profits when they may not actually be deserved-warranted - say by trying to get approval for a fraudulently approved product, e.g. "... the 26 pharmaceutical companies paid some $33 billion in fines during the 13-year period. The top 11 alone accounted for $28.8 billion" - https://www.pharmaceuticalprocessingworld.com/gsk-pfizer-and...

And arguably this is just the tip of the iceberg and the industry hasn't been held accountable for most of their fraud since the industrial complex formed.

This isn't just a problem with the pharmaceutical industry but with clearly corrupt-captured regulators like the FDA - who allowed this fraud to happen to begin with, missing or not checking into whatever lies were presented for the fraud to occur and the products to make it to market.

And that's why headlines like "Moderna's mRNA cancer vaccine works better than expected" should be taken with extreme skepticism.
As an upper class person myself I can verify this is true. I respect people who take on noble professions and I disrespect other rich people for myself. But I take it a step further.

Hats off to the janitors of the world.

That's why instead of having other billionaire friends as my peers normally would, all my friends are janitorial engineers!

When the project is so big that this is a problem, you can make an additional make target, e.g. "make file_lists" that would use globbing and store the lists into a file that will be used by any other make commands.

The bigger a project is, the more important is to use only globbing and never write explicitly any file name lists.

However, I believe that this, the slowness of globbing for big directories, might be a strictly Windows-specific problem, if it exists. At least on Linux and with XFS (which has B-tree directories) I have never seen globbing to take any noticeable time, even on directories with ten thousand files or more, where it still appears to be instantaneous at the human reaction time scale.

There is no reason to ever do recursive scans. All the directories with source files of a project must be scanned to search for any source files located there, but only once.

There is _a lot_ wrong with Marlin. It is a complex codebase, full with ancient artefacts, litterred with preprocessor ifdefs every 2-3 lines of code, dynamic includes in the middle of CPP files, etc[1]. It's about as unreadable as C++ code gets--well, I guess it's not template metaprogramming.

Klipper by contrast is a breeze to read through[2].

If the costs can be passed on, then there is potentially no incentive to innovate, either. It might also still be more cost efficient to innovate less to reduce costs than to actually innovate to reduce costs. Predicting where these things go is quite tricky.

Genshin Impact is (potentially) an interesting case - the iOS version has supported game controllers for almost 3 years now, but there's been no hint of support coming for Android.

At the same time, NeoVim lacks many, many of Helix' features unless you use plugins. That's fine, of course, plugins and customization are part of what makes NeoVim so great.

OTOH, English teachers once did know their Shakespeare. And Goethe, and Moliere. I had a colleague who could recite some Shakespeare, I even can remember some Heine (even though I hated it), and my former boss could recite the opening of the Odyssey, in Greek. All taught in secondary school. And in these same formative years, my daughter is taught dick jokes. It doesn't require much imagination to see what that does to education. It certainly downgrades the teachers.

Too much emphasis has been placed on knowledge being useful, without actually knowing what comprises useful knowledge, and fun in the classroom, in the unproven expectation to improve performance, while at the same time "broadening" the curriculum and lowering the standards, so more children can participate.

I think you are confusing a breaker group with your total residential connection.

Assuming you are in Europe, and you have 2.5mm² cabling (which is the standard for residential applications) then you are indeed limited to 16A per group.

However, there is nothing preventing you from using multiple groups for one appliance. This is actually typical for high-power appliances, such as induction cooking.

Ultimately it is your main fuse that limits your total power consumption, which for most European countries this is typically rated at 25A (5750W), but on request you can usually have this raised to 35A, 50A or even 80A, if supply is sufficient.

I don’t think anyone would care about such a person opting not to get a vaccine. But this describes, pretty much by definition, a very small portion of a society.
There's multiple vaccines that can also work after you've been exposed to a pathogen. In many such cases risks vs benefits will change by the event.

For example rabies vaccines is not given to everyone, however after you get rabies you will be given that vaccine.

Vaccine in this case is a less harmful training tool to prepare you for the more harmful pathogen that may still be reaching its peak strength.

You can think of vaccines as a training tool. In some cases it might provide you with a response that can completely throw the pathogen out, in other cases it will just be able to fight it better.
Both of the cases have been appealed. Appellate court decisions set precedent within their jurisdiction. If the Supreme Court takes the case (not unreasonable that the two could be heard together), they'll issue an opinion and create a national precedent.
There are pretty good reasons for treating files as sparse; virtualization and deduplication. Virtualization of storage devices without sparse files would be slowed tremendously by the need to allocate and zero large regions before use, essentially double-writing during the installation and initial provisioning stage. You can force the virtualization layer to implement sparse storage but then you get a host of incompatible disk image formats (vmdk, qcow2, etc.) and N times as many opportunities for bugs like the article describes to be introduced.

Deduplication is basically a superset of sparse files where the zero block is a single instance of duplication. Deduplication isn't right for every task but for basically any public shared storage some form of deduplication is vital to avoid wasting duplicate copies.

Sparse/deduplicated files still maintain the read/write semantics of files as streams of bytes; they allow additional operations not part of the original Unix model. Exposing them to userspace probably isn't a mistake per se because it is essentially no different than ioctls or socket-related functions that are a vital part of Unix at this point.
Sony and Nintendo are Japanese companies. From the article:

> Japanese companies would be able to run dedicated game stores on iOS devices, as well as use payment systems with lower fees from Japanese fintech companies.

It’s not hard to read between the lines. This is all about letting domestic gaming companies like Nintendo and Sony make more money from those mobile platforms.

The techie demographic likes to get lost into arguments about the technology and philosophy of computing platforms, but as far as the EU and Japan are concerned it’s just realpolitik to give their domestic companies a leg up.

> said that it couldn't be meaningfully bettered

There’s the problem!

I’ve had this experience many times — people will internalise their limitations and assume that their best is the best possible. Etc..

When a junior employee just casually proves them wrong, calling the emperor naked, that makes them feel inadequate and even ashamed.

I’ve been involved in many similar scenarios. Often there is a history of meetings, consultants, vendor techs, etc… trying to fix the problem and then a grudging acceptance and business workarounds. To suddenly reveal all of that as a lie is to undo established history. It’s like trying to close down the Vatican and tell all the priests to go home because you found a “neat proof” that there is no God. To say that you’ll experience some disbelief and resistance to your ideas is an understatement!

I had one of these moments where I got a nightly report batch job down from 3 hours to about 5 seconds. The customer turned red in the face, screamed at me, accused me of lying and stormed out of the meeting room.

Turns out that guy had to stay back each night to make sure the job ran successfully and so that he could sign the print out officially. He’d accepted the impact on his personal life, after many arguments about his work hours with his wife, etc…

To have all that sacrifice and suffering instantly made superfluous!? Ouch.
There's a certain set of healthy recommendations, but to clarify none of them will absolve the risk completely.
> the platonic ideal of development is:

> make # Build the project

> make install # Install the project

> make clean # Clean the project build dir(s)

IMO, that last step of cleaning is very not platonic ideal. However... maybe a reality of incremental development?

The first step for me in a lot of cases is just trying a project to see if it's worth my time, typically that would just have been:

cd /tmp
git clone http://foo/some/project.git
cd project
# build steps, perhaps in a good case your make example above, a dockerfile, or nix flake

These days though I'm ecstatic when I see a Nix flake because I can reduce that to:

nix run github:some/project

Then for development I could even avoid cloning things myself (and sometimes do) with:

nix develop github:some/project
cd /tmp
unpackPhase

Make some change:

genericBuild

I guesss all this to say my platonic ideal includes getting more busy work out of the way and at least in the case of building, not having to worry about cache affecting reproducibility.

I guess all of the above is to try and express my different idea of platonic ideal here and how Nix gives it to me (and could perhaps to you, for a cost).

You're basically agreeing to the GP's "thin" argument by saying you need people who already successfully did it to have a higher chance of succeeding.

You can't do a clean-room re-implementation if you're hiring people who already worked of the original implementation. Plus clean-room design only circumvents copyright claims. They don't defend against patents.
