The private for-profit “utility” in California, PG&E, is extremely corrupt but voters can’t do anything about it because it’s a one-party state which means the only people that run for the opposition party are completely looney. Look up the history of the Paradise fire and “public safety power shutoffs”.

Not only pilots. Truck driver resting time is heavily regulated to the point the need to record start and end or they will be fined at best. Their employers will also be on the hook if drivers are non compliant.

A truck driver! But doctors? No… they are Uberhuman and can make life or death decisions after 24 hours on call and awake. Ridiculous. It is a topic that angers me a lot.

This happens in Portugal as well as Poland, it indeed feel universal. I think the reason is that doctors are kind of like gods: in the hour of your biggest need it is them that can help, therefore they are highly respected and have huge influence over a wide cross section of society. Everybody will eventually need a doctor in their life.

Another pet outrage topic related to doctors is the amount of time they need for training. They train almost 12 years after high school before they are qualified. What a wasteful training. They learn lots of generalities to the specialize in the end. With a 10 or 12 year higher education you are speaking about phd or post docs for a profession that requires 1 for every 1000 citizens. Imagine that ratio of phds and post docs. Is being a GP really requiring such training? I don’t think so and agree with above posts that their duties should be broken down, opened and delegated.

Not on premises who are regulated and might have enterprise requirements. If you need eg role based access control you can’t use on prem MLFlow etc. So you could niche down to customers who don’t know this yet. Smaller banks, insurers etc.

Edit: we went through this. Started putzing around with open source things on prem on Openshift. Ended up on Databricks for a variety of reasons. The impact on the business to be wiring up lots of new widgets, maintaining them, training, ability to switch to new components when required. Lean team, so turn Databricks on and secure it properly, exclude PI where possible, sort out ETL and CICD etc, profit. Delegate MLOps stack innovation to the vendor and focus on our own job.
The main thing is, that I could actually support a household of 6 people on a single income if I was allowed to fix the comfort at the 60s level.

1. No flying on vacation and only simple camping as vacation
2. No technology: Computers, phone, television. Nothing, and no associated costs with subscriptions, etc.
3. Eat like it was the 60s, mainly potatoes (I am from Northern Europe).

That said: I truly believe in the parent commenters key idea. We need to create more real prosperity for people. But in order to do that, we need to adjust the activities – Marketing and expensive dead-end projects (read: projects that occupy a lot of person-hours) does not achieve real prosperity.

In the UK they severely limit access to any diagnostics, and your GP just gives you antibiotics and/or anti depressants.

At the hospital, they just classify your symptoms as “not critical”, refuse to admit you and kick you back to your GP, who then refuses to refer you for any investigations, I imagine because there is a gun to their head over targets etc

If your levels are high, you’re told oh it’s not severe. If it’s severe, you’re told oh it’s not critical etc

We have a system where everyone just gaslights you that you’re in fact not sick because you aren’t 3 seconds from death
I read Grants biography three times. For all of his faults, Grant was a genius in reading his opponents mind and knowing what his troops were capable of. Terrain and geography played a role but it is secondary to his men’s welfare.

When Rosecrans were trapped by the Confederates after the battle of Chickamauga, Grant was assigned to take command and free the trapped Union army. Grant arrived and quickly saw that the Union troops were starving and that Confederates blocked the most direct supply routes and many mules and horses were driven to death in an attempt to feed the troops. Grant quickly launched a surprise attack to establish the “cracker line” a direct route to supply the troops with hard tack, a staple food of Union troops.

Once his troops were fed and recovered their strength, he went on the offensive. At the battle of Missionary Ridge, Grant’s troops charged up a mountain against Confederate canon and drove Braxton Bragg off the field. For several months Bragg thought he was close to destroying an entire Union army and suddenly Grant showed up and turned the tables on him.

With inflation, we want to know about the change in value of the dollar only. We don't want to factor in the change in value of houses, food, etc. There is a place for understanding that too, but inflation is not it. Something like a cost of living index is more suitable to that kind of information.

On that note, houses are unquestionably more valuable today. For one, they are twice the size they were 60 years ago. We can all agree that a bigger house has more value than a small house, at least within reason. You can fit more in it, it is more comfortable, etc. and that is valuable. They are also a lot safer. That too is more valuable.

As such, a housing costing x% more today than as compared to some time in the past does not mean that inflation is x%. Again, we only want to know about how the dollar changed in value, not housing. Of course, if you only have numbers, it is impossible to know what share is due to housing being more valuable and what share is the dollar being less valuable, although we can say with great certainty that it is some combination of both.

CPI tries to tess out what is the dollar portion only by looking at a large basket of goods of things people buy frequently. Where you see common moment in the change in price across all items in the basket, that is assumed to be the change in value of the dollar. It's not perfect. There is no perfect metric. You are quite right that one should look at many different models, even though none of them will be perfect either. It is all good information, none of it great, but at some point you have to pick a single number.

On average, it will be close enough.
Nothing, Israel is trying to broaden the war and drag the US and western countries further into it.
I’m surprised the landlord is ok with this. I understand the panels might be rated to withstand some amount of wind, but there’s a huge liability if this project lead to injury.

A good job was done considering the load on the indoor wiring, but the exposed wires on the outside of a building concern me. Typically wires have some level of insulation and/or conduit that reduces and contains the spread of fire. If wind did move the panels around, those wires could pull loose and start a fire.

SF does not perform frequent building inspection, but if an inspector saw this they would almost certainly cite that this violates building code. In the event of injury, insurance might not pay out given how this is setup.

I saw a really good YT video a few months ago that explained this very well. Went over all the fuel types and tanks and propulsion designs.

Started with what you said - a simple gas pressurized and a single valve.

Slowly more and more was added until we get to current rocket designs with multiple stages or active pressurization / fuel transfer and all that entails.

Wish I could find it again.
Why would I expect a reply? I think you have confused me with the earlier commenter.
At what point does dependence on insurance become a liability for medical approval? I would have thought we passed that threshold decades ago but the industry appears to have the full throated endorsement of the state for some reason.

I would also add the famous Bert Cooper line, "I never heard the word client in there." He mentions patients, but they are all wrapped up in a woe-is-me section I work so hard and yet I haven't been diagnosed with a mental illness.

A similar incident was the main reason I canceled all of my social media altogether.

There is a stop sign directly in front of my house. Children routinely play in the street. People were running the stop sign all day everyday. Not just rolling through it, but going through it so fast that they were ending up on the opposite side of the road and had to correct themselves to get into the proper lane.

My wife and I spent months calling and emailing the police department. I even setup a cheap Wyze camera attached to our mailbox and sent videos to the police department. They never did anything.

I finally made a post on Nextdoor and it caused a huge mess. People were so offended that we expected them to simply stop at the sign and drive at a reasonable speed. It really caused me to no longer want to be involved in any of the community stuff in our town.

If I combine A and B to make C, I have more than A and B. Now I have A and B and C and the relationship of A to C and B to C. Composition usually creates complexity. Interfaces (via aspects, aspects, traits, whatever) tend to simplify, when the complexity is quantitatively extensive enough to outweigh the cost of the interface complexity creation + the complexity saved by using the interface.

At least, that's how I think of it.
Hm.

Googling in German now suggests that what happened is: Someone else did get such a ban (called "betätigungsverbot" in German, which means "a ban on putting into action") and the police broke up the meeting in which Varoufakis and the other guy were to speak. Speakers who hadn't entered the country yet on the morning of that day were turned away at the border, without any reason given. Unsure how many that was.

The other guy seems to be… not very nice.

Varoufakis' speech was certainly not the reason for the other guy's Betätigungsverbot.
I just left a similar comment. We were probably composing a the same time.

This has been extensively debunked. Read the original methods of the BMJ article that you linked. They took every single minor error, like prescribing medicine 15 minutes late, and if the patient died, even of an aggressive cancer that they had already, it would be counted in the 'medical error that caused the death' statistic.

It looks like I made a serious mistake. The initial plan was to incorporate as an LLC. If I had done that, there would be no requirement for customers to file 1099-nec.

However, we were structured as a partnership, and later became a sole proprietorship. And both require 1099s!

It's even possible my partner at the time described us an LLC when we initially acquired the customer. So they might be fully blindsided by this issue.

It seems I must inform my customer that they need to retroactively file 1099s, and eat the consequences.

Assuming they didn't know, I face a risk that they will drop me - or even sue - for the expense and misrepresentation.

If they did know all along, the risk of losing the customer seems to grows by a lot if I now request correction.

I'm going to consult with a CPA this upcoming week and do the right thing. As you can likely infer by now, there are other non-compliance issues that we will need to address. But the fact that I've put my own customer at risk is hitting me like a ton of bricks. Never would I have expected or intended that.

I will immediately formulate a plan to remediate, with the aid of a CPA.

I very glad you called my attention to this very serious issue. You have just saved me a world of pain, even if fixing this is going to hurt like the dickens.

Thank you very much, PopAlongKid.
> Those aren’t fancy cuts or prime grade beef. Just regular steak... I don’t know how the low income families deal with a 30% increase in their grocery bills

I don't think low income families are buying steak - and price increases in luxury goods can understandably grow faster than in staples like non-steak beef.
>That seems cheap.

That is insanely cheap when you see how much money the German automakers have pissed away. For example, Daimler's Smart car brand alone posted over 4 billion Euros in losses. They could have gone to space with that money.

Not just in Germany either, but France and Italy, they're all pushing crazy money in the local auto industry for the sake of maintaining local jobs, with little else to show for.

By comparison, the Chinese taxpayer got a really good deal here.

>it resulted in billions of illegitimate aid paid out.

Ah yeah, I remember watching a report on ZDF while the authorities were repo-ing someone's Bentley, how during Covid the German Gov was reimbursing test centers money for Covid tests without requesting any solid proof that the tests were actually made.

So an entire industry sprung up where everyone and their mom were opening sham covid test centers but only on paper, and so enterprising individuals were making hundreds of thousands of Euros from submitting fake reimbursement claims to the government which the government paid outright without doing any checks.

In general the German government is totally shit at being eficient and fiscally responsible with it's citizens' money. They spend like drunken sailors on useless crap during the good times, and when the bad times come it's "sorry bruh we're broke, time for public service cutbacks".

It’s likely, freezers don’t operate continuously.
I live in Boulder, Colorado. We had the Marshall Fire[1] a couple years ago, which burned down 1084 structures on a day with high winds. These winds are pretty normal around here on occasion, at least multiple times each year.

What's not normal is that last week, our utility (Xcel Energy) decided to preemptively shut off power to 55,000 customers to reduce risk before a forecasted wind event with high fire-risk[2]. They had intended to restore power the next day, but some went without power for a couple days.

The communication and execution of the shutdown seemed poor, and the infrastructure problems that led to the shutdown are still here. The impression I have from comments in local groups is that they are trying to avoid liability and have not adequately invested in fixing shoddy infrastructure that is going to be safe here. People are expecting regular shutoffs to become the new normal. Wind storms aren't going away, fixing the infrastructure would take a long time, and people don't think Xcel is interested in spending the money, even though they can likely afford to.

This has definitely left me thinking about a DIY battery+solar solution to keep my heating system running, as well as fridge/freezers.

"destroyed the Iranian consulate annex building adjacent to the Iranian embassy..."
This is basically how I handle it, and we live in the neighborhood mentioned by this article. The disability claim is largely a straw man argument: I've never seen someone in a wheelchair try to navigate SF streets - they're far, far too hilly and para-transport exists. This whole thing comes down to SFMTA being a bunch of crash-grabbing motherfuckers. The amount of revenue the city takes in through ticketing is outrageous, to the point that it's less and less about bylaw enforcement and more about making money.

I think last year my total $-amount for SFMTA tickets came to ~$1300? Still cheaper than paying for a garage or wasting my time trying to find street parking.

More on context here: the sidewalks of the outer sunset and outer richmond are extremely wide, to the point were you could easily parallel park 1.5 cars right on the sidewalk, so it's trivial to park a car such that it being partially in the driveway will leave more than enough space for anyone to pass.
The argument is bunk, and your observation is correct: inflation can be higher than the current CPI predicts, but this does not somehow imply that the CPI basket should factor instruments that do not disproportionately affect ordinary Americans' finances (or double-count ones already accounted for more directly).
It remains absurd to me that the many ways inflation is measured and presented for the purpose of its impact on regular people is based almost entirely on its impact on funds with no meaningful component reflecting the impact on the overwhelming majority of distinct legal entities impacted by it.

My opinion is that if there are changes to monetary policy based on the effect of inflation, the policy should be centered on maximizing the outcome for the majority of distinct legal entities (ie overwhelmingly individuals) not maximizing the outcome for capital. Because wtf are you optimizing policy for the wealth generation of an overwhelming minority of the entities impacted by that policy?
That's for chatting and interfacing conversationally with a human. Using the API is a completely different ballgame because it's not meant to be a back and forth conversation with a human.
The pandemic didn’t cause this inflation. The governments response to it did. Governments love when people blame an infectious respiratory virus for their idiotic response.
How are you going to prevent this in general? At some point you’re going to make an indirect call.
And we never will!
you are correct, originally youtube didnt have this when i made it in 2019 with deepspeech, now they do but i just always preferred the idea of it being on the timebar to just click and go right to it. tbh i should just make a simple addon to take the youtube timestamps and slap it onto the timebar. also for the split chunks this would have no problem there as the transcript is actually stored in a json file, so any concurrent words will always be matchable for phrases. ofc downside being you need to run the model lol
Naturally I don't think I care too much or I would care less. I believe I care an appropriate amount. Unstable leadership doesn't seem likely to provide stable software. I'm not going to invest time and energy learning something that could fall apart tomorrow.

I don't think everyone should take my approach but there are circumstances I deem extreme enough that it's worth mentioning so that other people can investigate and make informed decisions. I specifically didn't go into detail so that people who don't care don't have to think as much about it.

Hm. You're right. I haven't. And I guess the entire problem is that we shouldn't just assume somebody else has.

The JSON manifest is a much smaller attack surface than uploading random binaries would be though. And the standardized build procedure should make it relatively easy to tell if something's out of the ordinary and should be raising eyebrows, or even automate much of it.

Maybe stick an `alias CheckFlatHub=` for a LLM prompt, or just some plain regexes, in `.bashrc`? Looking for fishing URLs and install commands sounds like a relatively simple problem, as far as security challenges go.
Your own link contains your answer:

> Expanding the cap on medical and dental school places is complicated by the cost of training, current university and clinical placement capacity, and the current number of clinically qualified academic staff who design and deliver courses.

Furthermore, the NHS actually needs the funds to hire staff.

The core problem is that people are getting older with more complex health care requirements, that more and more conditions become treatable, that healthcare is often expensive, and that no one wants to pay for it.
There is definitely shady shit happening all round, but it does seem higher density in gaming to me.
