Well yeah, they're 4 years old. They need some level of supervision if they have little survival skills or common sense. There has to be some level of supervision until a minimal level of survival is possible (assuming we want near zero losses).
Upper-middle and upper class aren't having children either though, so my bet is on the latter side of your argument. Huge opportunity costs for having kids before your mid 30s, and afterwards, it's a bit late to have more than a couple kids to have sustainable population numbers.

Definitely a bit hypocritical of me, since I'm also a part of the problem who doesn't want to have kids. But, at least for me, it's not worth it right at this time.
Here in Norway it's primarily centralization. We used to have many living in small towns and cities along the coast and such, but young folks are moving to the larger cities[1].

This is driving up the demand a lot in central areas.

The houses left behind are not desirable for the same reason so many opt to keep them as summer homes, leading to shortages in the districs as well.

A lot of this has to do with jobs. We've lost a lot of jobs in the districs due to various reasons, and at some point these towns collapse. You need a certain minimum number of folks to have a decent school, a hospital etc. Once population drops too low the hospital gets shut down say and it's downhill from there.

They prove a new upper bound to a combinatorial quantity that controls the worst-case running time of an algorithm of Dadush, not an upper bound to the optimal value of a given ILP instance.

If they wanted to see their ideas work in practice, they could implement Dadush's algorithm in light of these new bounds, but this would be unlikely to outperform something like CPLEX or Gurobi with all their heuristics and engineering optimizations developed over decades.

Otherwise, and this is the sense of the quoted sentence, they could go deep into the bowels of CPLEX or Gurobi to see if their ideas could yield some new speed-up on top of all the existing tricks, but this is not something that makes sense for the authors to do, though maybe someone else should.

You'd think that someone would have noticed the four extra bolts that were left over when they stuck the plug back in. I mean, that happens to all of us, but most of us aren't working on anything important.

Farmers do not want that. John Deere collects a lot of opt-in data from tractors. That is the owner of the tractors chooses to upload that data because they get value from it. If the tractor is not online or the GPS isn't working the farmer will stay home to fix things as the data is too valuable to risk not having it uploaded. (you can export the data to USB, but that is a hassle). Farmers who don't get a good cell signal of course do work without getting data uploaded, but they want the real time monitoring possible with an always on connection.

I work for Deere, but don't speak for the company.

I don't think it sounds harsh, and I have worked with dozens of tech companies and directly for a dozen or so - the only one that wasn't obsessed with cheating out on quality to make a buck was bilking his customers so much that he didn't care.

At every phase of the conversation is management saying they have this hard deadline and

I have been fired multiple times for being too vocal about the failures of process or technology, though mostly I just get ghosted for pushing back when things are unreasonable, at this point I exclusively go for visualizations, gantt charts, etc - to communicate that the timelines are not possible with the current investment in the team/tech/whatever.

I just got laid off for (as far as I can tell) being the person who kept asking the question about why we were doing a thing that provided no technical or business value for a year, and in most of these cases some exec thinks they know best because they read some magazine equivalent that tells them this is the new hype revolution.

Basically if you can find some highly skilled or highly profitable company that's concerned about losing their edge you might be able to do this, but your next boss might change the entire equation.
Theoretically, sure, but in reality it's just that most managers are bad at their job. Knowing what your team is doing, knowing how to set priorities, knowing how to organize projects, making sure targets are being effectively met, etc. requires actual work.

It's much, much easier to count butts in seats and glance at badge swipe times and pretend like you're managing your team that way.

Those people just hide their lack of work in the office. Walking around with a clipboard and attending random meetings isn't achieving any more than napping.

And it depends on the company, but software is already heavy on metrics. Scrum is basically one giant dev productivity tracker hilariously sold as being for the benefit of the team.
Sure, why not. People can have multiple skills and I'm sure there are bad eggs in the office and bad remote eggs that will chew up the majority of that manager's time and energy.
Yeah being in office doesn't make it any less difficult to scroll through Reddit.
And you get to target people with families who can’t move so easily, without explicitly targeting them, helping ensure whoever is left is really focused on the company mission and not any other less important aspects of their lives like being there for their kids or partner or whatever.

Ah. I misread that a bit.

I TOTALLY agree.

We have a system now where childfree people disproportionately benefit from the socialized state. Not only do they not have to engage in any of the sacrifice (both monetary, time, and personal interests) of raising children, but they also get to suck just as much off the productivity of other people's children later in retirement. You might even get MORE than parents, since social security benefit is based off your average income over 35 working years.

For all of human history, your children were your retirement plan. You benefited directly in the future by how many you had that became successful, productive adults. But now retirement is so heavily socialized in the west that that children often can't directly take care of their parents because they're dealing with their own work and tax burden.

I don't have anything against childfree people (I'm one myself), but this system is fundamentally perverse and self destructive. You can't disproportionately reward people that don't reproduce from the bounty of those who do and expect that system to continue for very long. Like a parasite sucking a host dry, both eventually die.

If education worked, we wouldn’t see stats going up contrary to the rest of the world. The problem is that enforcement has declined radically and drivers have learned that there will be basically no consequences for anything short of a fatality and often even then it’ll be minimal.

One of the big problems is that the early signals are ignored: the guy saying the dead pedestrian “jumped in front” of his truck now almost always has a history of things like speeding and signal tickets, parking violations, etc. but as long as that doesn’t interfere with their ability to drive, they’re just being trained not to treat it seriously.

What I’d like to see is a progressive escalation of natural consequences: more than one speeding or light ticket in a year and you can’t keep your license without showing that your car has a speed/acceleration governor installed, more than a few in a year and your license is suspended for a month, etc. The focus should not be on money but reinforcing the idea that driving is dangerous and if you refuse to be safe you will lose that privilege.
Rising lifespans and immigration has made our population grow despite relatively low fertility.

Another huge problem right now is that the high prices has made it tricky for _older_ people to move, a large rent controlled apartment for an retired person is far cheaper than even the smallest new apartments if the lease is changed, so you have tons of retired people with kids that moved out (or should have moved out) living in 4-5 bedroom flats whilst families are crammed into smaller ones.

The only way out is to buy an apartment/house instead of renting, but here profit-taxation comes into play making elder people hesitant about selling because the huge price increases (often 90%) makes the 30% profit tax almost 30% of their selling price so they actually can't even afford to buy something reasonable since it'd anything relatively smaller would be too expensive for them.

One way out of this would be to lower the profit-tax of a dwelling by 0.5-1% for each year lived in it, that'd make retired people able to sell their dwellings w/o hardly any taxes and should enable a more dynamic market.

There's two parts to the question. There's the file itself and the underlying hardware. The wiki is pretty light on details, does it actually support emulating the same hardware as vmware? I'd assume no to the vmxnet devices but Intel E1000? Adaptec SCSI adapters? Similar USB and VGA?

A lot of the vendor-provided OVAs cut out a bunch of hardware support with the assumption that they only need to support vmware emulated hardware.
DUIs are not punished nearly severely enough. I used to work with an alcoholic who had been arrested multiple times, for all sorts of things: Fighting, property damage, indecent exposure, racing, going +100 MPH on a suspended license, etc.

He was arrested for his 4th DUI and was upset because, according to him, he "got the book thrown at him". His sentence? 6 months in county jail, with 5 days per week of work leave. He only spent evenings and weekends at the jail. A few months in, he faked some letterhead for a landscaping company and sent a letter to the judge, claiming to be the company, saying they just hired him and they were requesting a 6th day of work leave. The judge allowed it, so now this guy would just leave jail on Saturday morning and hang out with his elderly parents all day.

He saved money while in jail because he would work all week and then sleep at the jail, so he had no rent to pay. He was arrested for his FOURTH DUI, and came out financially better than when he went in. He was practically rewarded for it.

In my opinion, a DUI should mean 5 years in prison with no possibility for a shortened sentence, your second DUI gets you 10 years, and your third is an instant life-sentence. I've had too many people in my life killed or paralyzed by inebriated drivers. I have literally not one single drop of empathy for anyone who drinks and then gets behind the wheel. In the case of an accident, I think it's actually immoral that they are provided any level of medical care at all. If they caused the injury or death of someone else on the road, leave them in the ditch to crawl out themselves. Let them take accountability for their actions, because obviously 6-months in county jail isn't fixing the problem.
Paying users/potential to talk to you?
Anybody have experience here? Obviously talking to your users is critical to understanding a problem space and what to build. But getting a hold of a large enough of potential users is a pain...is that pain worth paying for? I was thinking of paying a $50 consulting fee for 30 minute zoom for example.
I'm also suspicious it actually transfers to engineering orgs, especially with managers who don't have architect senses (or intuition).

But it's likely a direct transfer from sales or retail orgs, where it's very much measurable and true.
"The source of the problem is that the people deciding which EHR to use are almost never the people using it. "

Yes, this. We are a Cerner (now Oracle, yaaaaa) site, not Epic. The Cerner folks I've met in smallish meetings are nice/great on the front lines. However, the deal that our CEO/CFO/COO/CMIO made with Cerner was years ago and, per rumor, involved large financial penalties for early cancellation. Subsequent people in those roles have chosen to uphold the contract. The local management and healthcare teams in my particular facility are great but I take a dim view of our c-suite as do the majority of the work force. Things are reasonable locally for most people, I think, except for the EHR.

So, I would plead with leadership teams of EMRs, EHRs, healthcare systems, and shareholders of these entities to do the right thing and give healthcare workers working in high-risk settings the proper tools they need. You are currently failing us. No one wants unreliable, difficult software installed in critical settings such as ICUs.

I've submitted tickets, emailed leadership and had conversations with the CMIO. If there is improvement it is so slow that I cannot discern it.

In anecdotal conversations over the years I've observed that the vast majority of healthcare workers hate all EMRs but give Epic the nod because it is the least worst, and for some, reasonable. I have met a few Epic users that are enthusiastic about the software but that is after they arrived at our Cerner site and were in shock.

@duffpkg - my original comment was under yours and I wasn't intending to malign your project. I'm not familiar with it but do like that it is open source.

Respect to the developers that work on EHRs. I recognize you are held down by management.

I'm perplexed by UX/UI problems in EMRs. This must cost more to fix than I suspect. It seems to be the easiest of the issues from my layperson/healthcareworker/tech-enthusiast viewpoint.

One more thing to add: an effect of bad EHR is healthcare worker burnout. Bad EHR is a known contributor. Burned out healthcare workers are at increased risk to make medical errors. Bad EHR -> burnout -> errors -> adverse outcomes. This is a well known flow to us in the clinical setting that we attempt to mitigate. The executive teams of orgs that produce or purchase EHRs are never held accountable for bad outcomes even though, to my view, they share responsibility.

Edit: government regulators (CMS, etc) also share in the blame for bad EHR and outcomes.
> Making parenting net zero on your budget is a radical suggestion that politically would probably be unpopular, especially among people who absolutely don't want kids: because NOT having kids is currently viewed as the 'smart financial choice', being financially equal with parents would likely be viewed as oppression. They would view it as a subsidy from a childfree lifestyle to a child-supporting one...which is exactly correct, of course, because currently the child-supporting lifestyle ends up supporting the childfree one when it comes time to retire.

Exactly. For years there's been all kinds of shaming of poor mothers. It's drilled into people that being a parent when you aren't financially independent is a bad choice. Not really surprising that people don't want to take that on if they don't have to. Parenting isn't all that popular in the broader political discourse sphere.
There are tons of "minor" infractions committed by people who see themselves as perfectly responsible and law-abiding. And they are to the degree that they wouldn't drive without a license and would be legitimately deterred by that threat, but they just view various infractions as a normal part of driving (because they are, as our enforcement schemes make clear!)
It's a bit like keeping money... You can stash it under your mattress, hoping you'll never suffer a burglary; or you can give it to a bank, and let them spend money on security and insurance.

This said, banks have specific fiduciary responsibilities and the above-mentioned insurance, which compensate for the big target they're painting on their own backs; whereas most tech services, even massive ones, tend to hide behind service agreements boiling down to "eh, if it happens it happens, nothing we can do, sucks to be you". Unless they're in healthcare, they're barely required to disclose whether they've been breached, let alone compensate us for the loss of privacy and increased risk of identity fraud that we endure.

Maybe it's time for the legislator to define "personal data providers" a bit more rigorously.
>this will be exploited by the poorest underclass women who will have lots and lots of children to milk the taxpayer (and that's fine!)

It blows my mind that people think this way. You're going to get a lot of children who are wanted for fiscal benefits, but are unwanted from a maternal benefit. So yes, number goes up, but at what non-fiscal cost?

Just an FYI, but most municipalities have "sidewalks" legally defined as right of ways. They are available to use even if they are unimproved (grass). So that could be something to look into. Most of my childhood was in areas without paved sidewalks.

They are real. What they are missing is that said person wasn't working much before. They only noticed their lack of output when working remotely, as busyness was no longer visible.
