In Switzerland, at least for the french part, most of the doctors are not Swiss anymore. It literally became white collar immigrant job. Wife is one of those and sees the problem very clearly due to speaking about this with both (those few) swiss colleagues and the rest - its simply not attractive career path for locals, too much suffering and risk for relatively little reward.

Those bright enough go to law, IT and similar.

Speaking for my wife, she had to wade through absolutely brutal first 10 years for absolutely no good reason (she ain't no neurosurgeon, just internal medicine GP with FMH), no personal life at all at the prime of her life. 50 work week in contract (when average here is 42), reality with all required bureaucracy goes to 60-70, for everybody, consistently, unpaid (illegal here but who cares, state owns the hospital), often much more and catching up with tons of bureaucracy/billing at home.

Add night shifts, which most of us elsewhere have no experience with, that mess you up for many further days. You are a fraction of yourself, mentally and physically, for easily a week, more if you had to go through say 4-5 in a row.

These are the conditions that we put repeatedly people who have full control over life and death and health of their patients, often without further supervision, hoping they somehow magically never ever make a mistake, and when they do, folks immediately cry a murder and families sue to hell with massive dollar signs in their eyes.

You complain about that, or that you spend whole weekend being on call 48h unable to do anything really for literally 20 USD altogether (price of a canteen lunch here), including when you have to come and work 10-hour shift? You are put under pressure, shushed for being a pussy if you complain, told to toughen up since previous generations had it even tougher, and they somehow got through. Nobody mentions how horrible parents those absent folks were, how burned out they often were, quietly weeping or drinking themselves into oblivion. Well yes, those that didn't just quit, didn't go insane, didn't commit suicide, sure they got through. And now enjoy seeing young going through a bit milder version of the same. Of course there are insane amounts of money involved, but its always between insurance and hospital, doctors get less than capable IT folks for much less work. I am IT guy and consider this utterly fucked up wrong.

A good friend of ours sued the hospital (biggest public in Switzerland) for breaking basic Swiss law consistently like that, he was first but quickly gathered tons of other doctors. IIRC hospital finally caved in, a bit, but he is gone from it for good to private sector. Twice the pay, half the crap.

I could go on and on like this, a lot of doctor friends in our circles. It ain't some dream job, (at least a bit well-placed) IT job is a blessing in comparison.

A broader perspective might suggest that in order to continue your life without adverse impacts, it is in your interest that Iran be prevented from developing nuclear weapons. Israel is doing a lot of work on your behalf in retarding that outcome.

So, even if you are not sympathetic to the plight of our ideological fellow travelers, from a purely utilitarian view, it is in your interest to support Israel.

This. It all boils down to shared vision and autonomy. All teams should be acting in concert for the same goal. If they aren't the board needs to cut the CEO yesterday and find someone who is going to foster a cooperative culture.

I work in a company where each team is aligned and has autonomy and trust, where people listen and find ways to help the other team. It's game theory with the right algorithm installed. Oddly enough, the company was founded during the peak of the military hierarchial taylorism cargo cult clusterfuck that bore mutants like GE. The military doesn't even work the way these companies operate.
All true. I think doctors as possessors of the monopoly on health spending are uniquely positioned to fuck the whole society up with their own blindness to monumental aspects of health
FWIW: Never met a dyslexic bad at navigation, your wife is the first I've heard of and I ask every other dyslexic I've met. I'm extremely dyslexic and extremely good at navigating. Look at Google maps once and generally don't need to again, I just keep the mental image of the map in my head. Can she hold the mental photo of the map? Does she mixes up her left and right? Does she also have dyscalculia?
I can't easily type that out - and once the format can't be read / editing in a simple text editor, I'm starting to lean towards a nice binary format like protobuf.

These hacks/side projects are amazing! I feel we will see a lot of creativity as tools to build data intensive AI applications become easier.

We built and open sourced Indexify https://github.com/tensorlakeai/indexify to make it easy to build resilient pipelines to combine data with many different models and transformations to build applications that relies on embedding or any other metadata extracted by models from Videos, Photos and any documents!

I didn’t know about SigClip, the author mentioned on the blog, need to add this to our library :) I also found it incredible that he generated the crawler with Claude! This is the type of boilerplate I hope we don’t have to write in the future

I'm not sure what you mean by preventative care.

In New Zealand "poor" might be a synonym for uninsured? However my peer group is middle aged professionals (not poor) with as variety of healthcare issues. Only a very few would preventative care help. Prevention would help many of my friends. A friend with a cancer scare that keeps smoking. A friend with gout that doesn't change habits. Multiple friends with issues from drugs that continue to take drugs. All my friends and me that are unfit and eat poor diets. I've given up drinking recently but I'm most definitely an outlier.

Prevention is often the cure.

Assuming you mean prevention when you say preventative care?

Yes very easy with a ground mount with 4 panels, a battery and inverter.

I should write an article about it because I had planned to build something myself and keep all equipment outside and build a small wooden enclosure away from the house for it.
I don’t think it’s unrelated. The title of this post is “prescription required,” not “subscription required.” Whether or not the device should be so regulated as to require a prescription is one question. But if the FDA has determined that it’s required (and thus you must get a prescription from your doctor), then why should you be able to use it after your prescription has expired? If your doctor prescribes you 1000mg of opiates, you don’t get more opiates when you run out of them unless you renew your prescription with your doctor.

The problem in this case seems to be that the device requires a prescription in the first place. But since it does, I don’t see an issue with enforcing it.

The iTEAR 100 is not generally reimbursed by insurance. If you have an HSA or FSA, you might be able to get it through that. This whole medical device lifetime thing is because it’s regulated for its medical claims by FDA. Given some of the side effects noted here https://itear100.com/clinical-data.html, and how it changes the kind of tears that the user produces, I think it’s reasonable on its face to require a medical professional to review whether it’s working and needs more time with you every month.
Beware any election-year stories that just happen to elicit a deep sense of things being astray. Larry Summers in particular has a long track record of playing complex angles in his public policy views. The technical argument in the paper is totally separate from the headline here. The headline is what matters.

You can think of macroeconomic policy as having been trained on economic history, probably more so than any other hard-science discipline. The effect of the pandemic was ridiculously unlike any history on record, times a factor of 10.

The null hypothesis is that the inflation wave came and went. You won't find a credible economist that can prove otherwise.

Furthermore, the wave could not be avoided by any amount of conventional intervention, such as massive tightening. You'd have to get into war-time tools like price controls to manually constrain the massive shifts in supply and demand as people came in and out of the labor force, switched from demanding services to goods and back, etc.
The US supports Israel and itself causes terror in the Middle East. US citizens are safest if we withdraw completely and sanction Israel, like we would any other country violating human rights.
It's definitely a skill different to the physical one though, and one that needs plenty of practice - mapping your virtual world and keeping a running tally of all the objects and things you literally cant see except through a tiny box is not something that comes naturally to most.
I wonder if this applies to me. I never learnt navigation skills but I have a very good sense of direction and I'm also very quick to motion sickness in games and on boats.

I actually consider it to be slightly dangerous that I'm over confident about where I am and the direction I'm facing. It has led to be marching down the wrong track, not realising I'm on a parallel path that then sightly deviates.

I'm far more concerned about Israel's nuclear capacity. If anything, Iran will help keep them in check if it can develop its own nuclear deterrence.
The advice feels solid, well at least it speaks to Chelsea's personal approach to making a presentation. Authenticity counts for a lot.

But those slides; the walls of text. If I'm reading what's on the slide, I'm not listening to what you're saying. Worse, I'm trying to do both, so neither is leaving an imprint in my brain.

Text-heavy slides are great if I'm emailing a deck to someone, but for presenting, 5-6 words max per slide.

plot twist: he was smuggling luggage bags :)
> That seems subjectively accurate, looking at my grocery store receipts and $13/lb meat. Certainly more accurate than “3.5%” bullshit the “free press” is asking us to believe.

You do know that the CPI (and CPE) are made up of components, right? Like Shelter, Energy, Transportation… Food.

Food can go up more that 3.5% while other items (like Transportation/Energy/Oil) go down, so on average the prices you see have gone up by 3.5%. The individual components may be more (or less) than the 3.5% average.

Further, the CPI is an average basket of goods and services (taken from spending surveys done by many people), which may or may not correspond to what you personally put in your own basket. In Canada, StatCan has a Personal Inflation Calculator where you can enter budget as see your personal inflation rate which may be different than the headline inflation rate:

* https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/71-607-x/71-607-x2020015...

Further, the number you see in headlines is a national average which may be different to what has happened to your local prices.

TL; DR: model of reality ≠ reality.

Artists express themselves through their work primarily because of an uncanny need to do so. Not because others are going to pay of it. Most likely people are going to shit on it, which is exactly what happened to Yorgos Lanthimos (hottest filmmaker Hollywood at the moment) until his works reached a wider audience outside Greece, his home country. Wasn't about money. To this day he works only with studios that will allow him 100% "final cut" control.

Are there "frauds" out there? Sure, is it always clear which one is which, no. But at it's core art is the most well established form expression, other than talking, known to man kind since _forever_.
One of my old registrars co-founded this company: https://tortus.ai. They are doing a trial at Great Ormond Street at the moment - I haven't tried what they're building but it's an AI assistant that reduces some of the admin burden.

I am really hopeful that systems like this will take off – the reality of being a junior doctor in the UK is that most of your time will be used on quite tedious admin tasks (documenting every patient interaction, filling forms, booking clinics etc.) using very & slow outdated computer systems. I don't think anyone expects this when they apply to medical school, and it can be quite demoralising when you start your first job.
You might consider something on the opposite end of the spectrum, specifically net metering. If your grid connection is reliable, it's even more economical to get a solar system without batteries that feeds the grid. Where I'm located people pay the difference between the two without regard for when the power was generated or consumed. It also means your system is more efficient because there are no battery losses.
Whenever I say, "I probably have the worst sense of direction of anyone you will ever meet," people invariably say, "Oh, me too!"

And I say, "Really? So you are never surprised by what you see when you walk out of the building you've been working in for 20 years (you know where the exits are, you just can't figure out which exit leads to which side)? When you're sitting in a room in your house you can determine -- within, say, ten or fifteen minutes -- what room is above/below you? You routinely get lost going to places you've been to hundreds of times in your own city? There are perhaps only two or three places you can get to in said city without a GPS receiver, but that's about it. You are never, ever without a compass? Anywhere?"

Really, folks. I've been like this my whole life (I'm 53), and I have no other cognitive deficiencies that I know of. But when people talk about "mental maps," I'm not entirely sure what they're talking about. When someone says, "Oh, I know a shortcut" it's always an absolute revelation. Navigating anywhere is like being asked to memorize a 19-digit number.

Whenever I hear about greater or lesser abilities with navigation -- and how one might go from lesser to greater -- I always assume they are not talking about people like me. I really feel like I'm truly impaired when it comes to this, and I'd love to know why!
Yea. The first front page image I see is Batman. More "AI democratizing art" , but really just more IP stealing.
You can buy 256Wh battery banks for around $150 now. You can pair them with a timer for charging/topping off at night when electricity is cheap. They even accept solar input.

Throw one in every room and between appliances like the fridge or oven. Now you have a UPS for your whole house and the cheapest energy rates throughout the day.
I don't think it is true, because one side says: "You absolutely must come to the office at least N days a week", and the other side doesn't say "Nobody must come to the office" but "Why don't you let people decide for themselves"?

In other words, it is a discussion between inflexible dogmatism and elasticity.
I would like a Gmail competitor with solid email search, so that wouldn't be a strange side show for me, if anything they'd be copying Google's evolution in possibly a pro-user way that might be game changing in similar ways Gmail was game changing when it came out.

There is also the risk of lightning hitting the wires and causing damage indoors.
Sunsynk will give you what you want. You can define a minimum battery level, after which it'll switch to grid if there is not enough solar to supply the load. If there is no grid then It'll continue to use battery until a final emergency cut-off that shuts the whole system down.

The battery setting can be configured on a timer, so you can have different cut-offs for dulifferent times of the day.
I think those of us who came up before GPS and phones had an advantage in developing a sense of direction (and I'll add here a sense of orientation). I do tend to be aware of the cardinal directions and can generally point them out with reasonable accuracy when asked. Unfortunately, when I give people directions I tend to say "Just to the East of such & such" or "Go south from there" and people kind of give me a blank expression (especially younger folks who haven't navigated without a phone/GPS) and I have to figure out a different way to describe the orientation. To me it makes sense, but giving cardinal directions seems to be making less sense to people.

I think the other (related) aspect to this is being able to find some place again after you've been there once. Usually I don't need to consult a map to find a place if I've been there once, but I know people who find this difficult and will continue to consult online maps even after they've been somewhere before. So someone might ask me "how do I get to that place" and I'll reply, "we were there just last month - same place" and then I have to remember that not everyone is able to find a place they've only been to once before.
I think you're confused, I'm not using the "doesn't want to talk to people" definition of antisocial, I'm using it as the antonym of prosocial.

The "load rating" on the cords exceeds the total power delivery capability of the system. It has its own circuit breakers.

The manufacturers are well aware of risks, for liability reasons if nothing else, and have contained them in the uniform-electrical-code mandated manner. The system is no more risky than any other plugged-in appliance. We don't need to invent problems. Extension cords are just extension cords.

Yes but you really don't want to be treated at the end of that 12-hour shift, quality of service drops down significantly, they are significantly more tired at that point. Doctors are just humans like rest of us, and those shifts are often brutal.

What's wrong with having package management for dynamics libs built into the browser, using signed packages?

Any dynamic lib that is referenced, say /glibc.6.0.2, is downloaded only once, ever.

This is a problem Linux distributions more or less solved ages ago for distribution packages.

Why does a new, more complicated and over-engineered thing need to be invented when a tried and tested mechanism exists?
Because this is mainstream news and likely the conversations here won’t be productive.

There is literally no advantage to the new term that I can think of.
