You're missing the forest for the trees.

It doesn't matter that some states have caps on malpractice payouts. That's only half the matter. It's the number of times that a doctor has to be sued FOR malpractice, because a lot of those costs are going to be attorney fees. If I were a lawyer in Texas, I'd be posting billboards about specializing in suing doctors for not providing care. When women realize they can win a windfall in court for being denied care with life threatening conditions, they're going to start suing. And winning. Juries love giving away insurance company money.

More suits, higher premiums. Since that risk is spread across the state, so is the insurance rate. Most conservative OBs still understand, know, and respect the science. If Texas or Idaho or Alabama gets too expensive, especially given how absolutely garbage the standard of living is in those states, they're gonna haul ass political affiliation be damned.

Of course it can, the article is referring to the S&P 500.
It boils down to the fact that the United States does not have (public domain) knowledge of every address in the country.

The USPS knows about deliverable addresses but won't give that information to the federal government because then it'd be public domain and they would lose several of their primary data moats (Zipcodes, addresses, delivery routes, for example). The Census has very complete knowledge of every address, but won't give it up because it's illegal (see Title 13 of the US Code). There is an ongoing attempt by the DOT to collect a National Address Database (https://www.transportation.gov/gis/national-address-database) by collecting information from the address assigning authorities (usually county governments), but it's incomplete and unlikely to ever be complete because of holdout/underfunded local governments.

There are several address datasets that are private (Google has a fairly complete one, FedEx/UPS probably have the most complete, TomTom, CostQuest, etc.). I started https://openaddresses.io/ to try and collect them (NAD is based off this idea) into an open-licensed dataset.

The broadband companies have records that say "this address is connected to this network, which could theoretically have this service level", but (a) they won't/can't tell you where they think the address is and (b) won't spend the time to match their address string format with the government's address because both are private data.

Finally, without the address -> location data, even if we could get broadband providers to tell us what service is available at each address, we couldn't put that service level on a map because we don't know where the address is.

----

The Markup published some work in 2022 where they used OpenAddresses to use ISP's own tools to gather per-address service offerings and put them on a map. This is what the FCC's broadband map should be doing, but can't for the above (and political) reasons: https://themarkup.org/show-your-work/2022/10/19/how-we-uncov...

It's quite simple really. Macbook Pro M1 Max is in the set of enthusiast laptops. You said there are none. I gave that as a counterexample. I wasn't specifically thinking about it in my original comment. In fact I wasn't specifically thinking about even a bus width that I consider "large". It was a general comment that memory channels are not cheap to have in a piece of silicon and that consumers generally don't care about it as a metric of performance.

Microsoft SQL Server is closed source. They take open sourcing in a case by case basis, and the primary motivator seems to be money.
A separator separates two records, where as a terminator terminates a record.

You can detect and error out if you see an unterminated record at end of transmission. With separators, the producer might not put a separator after the last record, because there's nothing to separate it from there.

There's no justification for not using terminators, it's just a bad spec. Unsurprising story: the variant with better marketing has less technical chops.

I don't think that's true.

You're essentially saying that no one other than the original author can possibly add useful comments, and that is manifestly untrue.

It's well within the reach of AI to add comments about how a function is used, and even infer things like "detects errors that might cause an exception to be thrown later".

I agree completely. The problem here is that ai can’t run the code 1000s of times to deduce the context to create more meaningful comments.

I appreciate the professional exchange between contributor and maintainer. It was contributed with the expectation not that it would be merged, but that it could be adapted into a useful PR if the maintainers were interested. They weren't, so they respectfully parted ways.

Skimming through some of the code comments, this tool actually does a pretty good (though not perfect) job of interpreting each function. It would likely need to be limited to only larger functions though, since many of the smaller or boilerplate functions are self-explanatory. And seeing as this is Java, there are a lot of those!
Seems spammy to drop a 100k line PR of just comments, AI generated or otherwise. No maintainer in their right mind would want to review that.

For comparison figures,

Tideway, in the UK, completed 25km (15.5 miles) of deep sewer tunnel in roughly 3 and half years of tunneling (start to finish). That's about 4.4 miles per year.

The qualifications are

* these were both alongside and perpindicular to the Thames River in the vicinity of London .. so that's the soil type for those that want to chase that up.

* they had more than one machine operating.

* the times and figures likely including the time to build deep drop shafts to lower the TBM's down to and to cross connect to other sewer infrastructure .. YMMV

See: https://www.geplus.co.uk/uncategorised/tideway-celebrates-en...

Tideway's first tunnel boring machine (TBM) was launched in November 2018, followed by a further three TBMs working on the main tunnel and two on the connection tunnels.

Today (29 April 2022) marks the last day of tunnelling on the major scheme.

The now complete 25km sewer tunnel runs from east to west London and is around 70m at its deepest. Construction has been taking place at 24 sites across the city.

Just because historians agree on something doesn't make it true. It is pretty reasonable to demand that an empire, if it is going to be designated as the true Roman Empire, control Rome at a minimum. And not as some outcrop that they had shaky control over.

Calling themselves Roman doesn't really mean much, they wouldn't be the last group to call themselves a Roman Empire and be wrong about that. If anything, historians should be renaming the Holy Roman Empire to something a bit more correct.

I did a quick check and it seems like the entire Uber and clone industry is net negative. Uber, Lyft, Didi, Grab seem to have lost more money than was invested and once they stabilize they look like mediocre businesses at a global scale (Uber's been banned from many jurisdictions for predatory practices and in many other jurisdictions it seems to trend towards being as expensive as taxis or more once profitability becomes a target).

[Link to an academic analysis from April 2022]

Very problematic it is to suggest that the above analysis (being limited enough in its own scope) has much, if any, extrapolation to the situation now 2 years later -- when so many things have changed (in some aspects quite categorically) in the interim, on both sides.

For starters: no, you don't just grab a 37-day window at the start of the conflict when one party temporarily enjoyed the initiative and achieved a partial breakthrough; wave a measuring stick around various places at the map, and guesstimate a "velocity"; then conclude their this their intrinsic, operational "velocity", and hence will surely kick in again at some point.

Simply put, this is just now how wars work.

Russia seems to be steadily and rapidly taking territory

Russia has made some notable gains in recent months, on top of Ukraine's vastly larger rebound across the previous year-plus.

But there is no way you can call Russia's recent gains "rapid" by the standards of the current (full-scale) phase of the conflict. They've taken months to achieve, and at very heavy cost. Including the total obliteration of most of those areas now deemed to be suitably cleansed and purified -- and now finally fit and ready for their glorious re-admission to the Russian World.

I don't have such a conspiratorial take on this. Based on my previous experience in GovTech, I think this is what happened:

The project team specs out a procurement. The procurement team gets bids and handles the bureaucracy of awarding the contract. After reviewing bids, the project team selects or shortlists finalists. A special part of the procurement team then handles negotiations. The negotiators usually know little to nothing about the project other than costs. In order to get a lower price, they will negotiate away things that the project team considers important but aren't spelled out in the requirements.

Some of those things that gets easily negotiated away are rights for designs and data, even when gov't pays for their development. Negotiators are just looking for the lowest price for this particular project at this time. After all, there may or may not be extra costs in the future; they can claim wins on lower definite costs right now. Bidders know this game, and are ready and waiting to charge extra bucks for change orders down the line.

I was a lead on a multi-million dollar open-first project for gov't. I was shocked how easily someone I'd never met gave away the rights to reproduce mounting brackets. And it was no surprise that we were locked into buying extra parts that could have been fabbed elsewhere for cheaper.
We have almost a hundred thousand users and we don't have an approval process for macs either. Because we only have a few hundred :)

I think the windows guys have everything more proceduralised. But the Mac work is more of a one man show. I still don't think they have an approvals process though. They mainly still use SCCM and I don't think that has approvals built in.

And yeah things get tested in a separate environment before they're deployed in live. But as there's just one person doing both on Mac there's not much point to an approvals process. Which is also the person that gets to deal with any mistakes so there generally aren't any :)

And it's not a bad thing either, the Mac side is usually much quicker to adopt new features. Both because there's not that many and because Mac users are always interested in new OS versions whereas Windows users generally prefer to stay on what they know.

I have kids. A job that I mostly enjoyed. A beautiful and lovely wife. A nice place, and the love and admiration of many people. I have many hobbies: cooking, bicycling, tennis, movies, listening to and exploring music, writing (in my mother tongue), anime, sci-fi, and probably my major passion, learning. Learning about almost anything and keep learning. All of this is ultra-selfish, I know, and I don't take it as a meaningful purpose in life not even as an achievement.

I grew up in the middle of a communist family in Latin America. I was taught many things related to it, but something that impacted my whole life was being an atheist. However, nowadays I have a more agnostic point of view. Religion, god, divinities, supra-natural concepts, and anything that goes beyond the rational perspective have been outside of my life purpose. This was frustrating, mostly in my youth, when everyone had a path for their lives and beyond, heaven, illumination, the sense of community built by their believes, etc. I had to work by myself to try to build that purpose.

Then, one day I realized that not having a purpose in life was liberating, as others mentioned before. I can do and have anything, like what I said in the first paragraph. Not having that burden of purpose is the best part of being a human being. You, literally, can be anything without restrictions. It's in your conscience if you opt to be a dickhead or drive your path with empathy and compassion.

I have started using chatgpt with assistance on research and now I am able to go down rabbit holes faster and further on a topic i am researching.

The full technique is written on this post https://thinkingthrough.substack.com/p/going-down-the-rabbit...

tl;dr

“In my ChatGPT custom instructions, I have instructed ChatGPT to “Give me 2-4 follow-up questions that I can ask on the topic” (⬅ copy-paste that into your prompt ). And the results are marvelous.”
> If you just ask GPT4 to write a program and don't give it fairly specific guardrails I agree it spits out nearly junk.

The thing is, if you do start drilling down and fixing all the issues, etc, is it a long term net time saver? I can't imagine we have research clarifying this question.
