I mean, most of those people could just exercise or change their diets instead of relying on expensive drugs with unknown long term side effects
The original proposed mechanism was probably wrong, these drugs probably make you change your diet. Or at least eat less, obviously you have to be concerned with nutrition.
What is the moral issue? How is it evil?
Everyone already knows that diet and exercise are "the" solution to obesity, and yet it keeps getting worse.
I don't know the sales volume, but this fine is for, if I read correctly, seven products. WS has roughly 15,000 products across its brands. So the fine may be in the ballpark of one year's sales, which would be about 5.5x their profit on those sales. But that assumes these products' revenue and margins are proportionate to the rest of them.
Because it's trendy, obviously.

Most if not all of Cloudflare's competitors have been around longer than they have. Their contracts with governments and militaries is why they're valuable, not that nobody knows how to offer a CDN, or other services they sell.

Who knows, although the main idea is that there are now cameras on the busses recording 24/7 looking for violations and emailing them to the local police department.
I honestly have no idea how I'm controlling VIM but I only know when I'm trying to help someone in VSCode that I'm thinking: How can you live like this?

And also when I'm making a quick not in Gedit I'm instantly frustrated how much moving around everything is.

But it's just all muscle memory. For example I noticed that I always press CAPSLOCK twice. I have CAPSLOCK mapped to esc, but sometimes it's not so I guess my brain adjusted by always tapping it twice.

I can still remember a time though when it was actually slower with VIM than without it.
Creating Fluid Typography with the CSS Clamp() Function
For many (most?) drugs, the actual cost to produce the drug is usually far less than the selling price as it is an enforced monopoly. Given that monopoly, price restrictions don't actually restrict supply as the single supplier will still try to sell as much as they can to make as much as they can.
In addition, they presumably don't want to enter a race to the bottom by undercutting others, as competing by other means (sound quality? selection? brand image?) is less risky.

May I ask about your experience since leaving Ozempic compared to before you started taking it?

I'm not considering taking Ozempic nor am I aware of anyone who has, so I'm curious.
Any insight as to what happened in the UK? We seem to have caught the same bug, despite our streets being ill equipped to handle them.
I agree, but the definition alone isn't sufficient to actually calculate eigenvalues. Hence the standard approach which says that for matrix A, vector v, and eigenvalue λ, we have

Av = λv
=> Av - λv = 0
=> (A - λI)v = 0
=> det(A - λI) = 0

Which then yields the characteristic polynomial. Skipping the determinant means you need a different approach.
Ozempic costs $1000/month (in the US) but $5/month to manufacture [0]. I think if this drug and others are to have a significant anti-consumption effect on other companies it needs to be vastly more accessible, which first requires more accessible healthcare in the US, which is unlikely to happen.

Also it's an injection, which raises the barrier. If drugs like these become orally administered and over-the-counter, then yeah, I'd be more confident that it could have a positive effect. But currently, it looks like a drug that few can access/afford in the US.

I already explained it above, but to summarize: depending on global economy undermines Putin's ability to wage war. Having self sufficient economy enables his war. He can't be 100% self sufficient in practice, so he wants to widen it to his current and potential allies economically (that's the whole idea of BRICS in the nutshell).

Having an effective currency therefore would be Putin's tool of war, so a weapon in practice.

These effects started being priced in last year. Citrini on Twitter called a lot of this out in advance and made a bunch of money on long/short plays. Might be some room left to run, but be careful shorting potato chip companies and fast food because you think you found a secret.
I haven't taken it, but my wife has and since she's been off, while she is eating more, it mainly appears to be maintenance as she's not really losing nor gaining weight anymore. Food just doesn't seem to be as big of a deal. We can enjoy a nice steak going out it's not as much as a draw.
Are you asking what the root cause of obesity is? It's eating too much and not exercising enough. It's not some mystery. Or is the question about why people behave in this self-destructive way? People on average are bad at impulse control. Snack companies take advantage. People feel varying levels of discomfort vs exhilaration when exercising. For some it ultimately feels nice, for some it is unpleasant. Of those for whom it is unpleasant only some have the forethought and leeway to establish and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Of those for whom it is pleasant some face time or schedueling contraints that make an active lifestyle difficult. If there's a root cause to be fixed its that the human body responds poorly to acting on its impulses in our current built environment. You can solve that by altering the environment, the body, or the impulses. Ozempic seems to work by altering the impulses.
Even if google kills flutter, I think the project has reached the point where it can live on without them. The framework and ecosystem has been around for years by now and in the time its been around, its been maintained by some seriously smart people. It can live on with a smaller team, new features will just take a little longer.

Obviously its still sad when people get layed off though.
There's always tradeoffs. Ozempic probably has some long term side effects, but are they worse than obesity? Probably not. (And an intervention based on ozempic is far more likely to cause lasting change than one based on a prescribed behavioral program.)
GLP-1 agonists have been around for a while. They're just gaining popularity lately, it seems. The first one was approved in the US in 2005 (exenatide).
If these drugs turn out to be significantly more effective for a wide range of addictions than past approaches, that would indeed be a major societal shift.

I wouldn't try any of them right now, but if my insurance covered one for treating alcoholism at some point I'd give it a shot. If it actually worked it would likely significantly improve not only my life experience, but also my productivity and thereby the lives of others I have an impact on. It's a nice thought.
The Netburst P4s also used a half-wide (16-bit) ALU running at 2x the clock frequency (actually by clocking on both edges, like DDR RAM), which meant ALU operations with a carry/borrow between the two halves took an extra cycle: https://www.realworldtech.com/isscc-2001/7/
There are jobs (e.g. database engine development) where knowledge of distributed systems algorithms comes in handy. Most likely not nearly at the level of your theoretical PhD, but also much more stimulating that adding fields to JSON.

I remember when Supreme Commander 2 adopted flow field pathfinding. Even as someone who like SupCom1, I quite liked the game (it wasn't such an insane time sink or system hog). The pathfinding was part of the optimizations they made; it ended up that thousands of units could be onscreen in SupCom2 and not see the sorts of bottlenecking seen in the dual-threaded SupCom1. They also did some brilliant effects work, it ended up being a beautiful game.

Total shame that it got trashed for being a sequel, instead of the spiritual successor it probably should've been. In terms of "time to legions of giant robots slinging world-destroying explosives", SupCom2 takes the cake. It's an incredible beer-and-pretzels game.

"It’s pretty amazing that a reporter can write with a straight face that people eating less Doritos and Oreos is a ‘mounting concern’!"

This is a really bad-faith interpretation of what the reporter said. The "mounting concern" is linked to a CNBC video. It's obvious in context that it's the investors in processed food companies who are concerned, not the reporter herself.

For starters, you need to determine which cars are actually parked, and if that spot is violating the rules. For fixed cameras generally the installation process just marks as spot or lane where every car "counts", but a camera on a moving bus needs to do that on its own.

Market cap refers to size. The comment you are replying to is talking about size
But it still doesn't sound like a sustainable lifetime solution.

I think it makes great sense if you're badly out of shape, you fix it, and then you can maintain a healthy weight. But going on ozempic every few years sounds really bad.
Yes. I am very worried about the long term effects of this. While I have no need for this drug, I worries me for the broad population. There are problems known already (cancer).

I understand that it is a trade off if you are obese. A buddy of mine died with 43 bc a combination of obesity and COVID. Yes, it might be justified for high risk patients but currently it looks like it will become a life style drug like Viagra. And a drug that digs so deep into your metabolism and take it for life? Call me a sceptic.

You cant take these drugs forever afaik. Do they have permanent effects? It's just absurd to me the world has come to the point that we need these drugs in the first place but it makes total sense when you look at America for example. Awash in hyperpalatable processed "food" and corrupt food guidelines, a medical industry that "manages" chronic metabolic preventable disease but never cures it when probably 99% of cases could be reversed naturally. Big pharma and big food play their roles. Just insanity.

Seems like a valid ethical consideration, no doubt. But remember some people are suffering very serious harms already. A new drug might have side effects, but are they worse than the physical and social harms of being addicted to alcohol?

The ethical considerations are more difficult when it comes to someone who simply wants a little help. Consider the common case of someone mostly happy and successful, but is a little overweight and has been struggling off and on for decades to lose 20 pounds; almost all of us have been there, or will be. Do you give those people the drug? Do you allow them to choose for themselves, or should big organizations decide for us?

It would be impractical to roll out nationally without enormous levels of fare evasion. Once you leave London some stations don't have any ticket barriers, most stations will close ticket barriers once the evening peak is over and so on.

Let's say I get on and 'tap in' at London Euston then travel to oxenholme (no ticket barriers, but a 2-3 hour £60 trip) if I don't tap out what should I be charged? This would have to be the same amount as if I travelled one stop on the tube in London and forgot to tap out. What if I tapped in at London got off the train after one stop and tapped out without leaving the station then continued my journey?

What minimum amount should my oyster card (or debit card) have on it in order to take a tap in? It would have to be ~£2.55 as that's the minimum fare; yet once in I could take a £200 train journey.

A big part of why the London system works is that it's quite literally small beer. The journey price range is something like £2.55-£9; in that case you can afford to do all sorts of things like have someone tap in with £2.55 on thier card and tap out with a negative balance, and generally cope with a small number of edge cases and loopholes that are an inherent part of providing contactless travel.
Scanning a licence plate is one thing, working out if a car is parked illegally is another, right?
So what? A re-implementation of a CPU doesn't require the netlist to be equal.

You're going to have to edit the code in 2 places either way. With a sane deployment strategy the backend would have the extra field, then you can deploy the frontend to render said change. Or sometimes the table is dynamic and doesn't even need changes on the frontend.

To me the ability to push changes independent of other pieces far outweighs the extra git commit and push. I've never had the need for any other tooling than a container to run in, git to manage code, and CI/CD for deploys. If there's a need for special tooling to manage the projects there's to much complexity for my taste and I remove the complexity instead.
Many years ago as a teen I worked seasonally at a big blue/yellow electronics store that sells TVs, computers, appliances....and candy at the register. Curious, I asked my manager about it.

"Oh yeah, someone comes in here to buy a $10 HDMI cable, and impulse buys a $2 candy bar at checkout. Instant 20% more sales. Gas stations, pharmacies, they all do it."
Be real, it’s google. They could layoff 10k every month for another year and still have people lining up from around the world to get in
> So it scares me a bit when something like Ozepmic pops up and tons of people jump on it, without knowing the long term effects that might appear.

It isn't that different from what happened with vapes and e-cigs, and they were even worse (nicotine-based, explicitly harmful).
You can buy pharmacy compounded semaglutide through online portals, e.g. Ro

It's $450/month out of pocket (no insurance coverage)

Therefor, there will actually be price competition and we should see pretty cheap prices in the coming years.

I'm not sure exactly why pharmacies are free to compound it independently. I guess whatever patents exist on Ozempic/Wegovy etc aren't sufficient to squash competition.

The $1000/month for Ozempic is purely a name brand markup. I'd guess we'll see prices closer to $100/month for the compounded variants within a few years

Super capacitors / just large capacitors in general might eventually save the day here. The only issue is super capacitors can't generally bake in the heat all day and still work for 3-5 years like lead acid batteries can.

Supercaps is how "fast" charging in most smartphones works as well since they can soak current faster than the battery itself and also mitigate cycling batteries too hard.
How hard is it? As in - they have to let you work for the duration of the notice period hard? Honest question.
Eh, calling on a company to do a thing is some mix between public fact finding and threat here.

It allows the public to comment and maybe the senator will like the public support they are getting. Alternatively a pharma lobbyist will show up and toss them a few hundred thousand in campaign contribution promises. And they'll weight the relative value of those things. Depending on how that goes they (or another senator seeing this play out) will actually make an issue of it and it will start the more formal processes.
