How are we supposed to increase outcomes if we don't have the screenings?

Sure maybe the first few years the outcomes may not change, but what about 20 years from now, when a generation of scientists can detect cancer years earlier?

The defeatist attitude of "well it doesn't fix anything right now" is really strange. Once we have reliable detection, it means we can find reliable treatment as well.

You keep randomly switching between suburban and rural as it suits your argument.

Fiber infrastructure is well available in suburbs, much earlier than in cities because it's much cheaper in the suburbs.

And rural areas grow food, and depend on the nearby suburbs for services.

> Also just because food is grown in the country does not mean that lots of people need to live there.

Sounds miserable for the "sacrificial" people who you'll put there to grow food for you. Do you not realize that if you want people to live there, you need nearby suburbs and small cities?

Strongtowns actually want fewer interstates, to really make sure farm dwellers have no opportunity to go anywhere else.
>Personally, I was thinking we could privatize the entire military in one fell swoop. And then let them sell their services to various foreign nations. Turn that one big cost center into a revenue opp.

The USA gets a whooole lot of soft power from its military hegemony, it's already paying for itself in the form of better trade deals - for instance, Taiwan basically only exists because of US hegemony, and they have better chips than the US does, and they don't sell their best outside of NATO.

The US is doomed to always be the away-team - they can't stay neutral because wars involve blocking the trade of their trading partner, which includes US merchant ships. They won't have a war on the home front, because they have the two biggest oceans in the world to make such an invasion a logistical impossibility (and the US navy is giant to enforce that).

Bumping my thread since it got hijacked by the downward swipe vs scroll business.
Harper's analysis includes such factors (he pays a great deal of attention to global climate, particularly the characteristics of the Roman Climate Optimum, which spanned from 200 BCE to 150 CE, and other ecological, political, cultural, and technical factors.

It's also true that disease, as with many other pathologies, tends to observe Murphy's Law of Thermodynamics: things get worse under pressure.

Overexploitation of natural resources (soil depletion, deforestation, elimination of megafauna, depletion of watersheds and aquifers, exhaustion of mineral resources) all contribute to a general weakening of the civilisation which invokes these circumstances. It's worth noting that the Western Roman Empire at the time of its collapse was not generally in a state of pervasive famine.

And Harper isn't giving a One True Way response, he is carefully, with a great deal of historigraphic and scientific evidence building the case that, as I noted above, civilisations and pathogens co-evolve. (My expansion of that to networks or systems and pathologies generally is my own armchair contribution, though based on my own observations of numerous examples at first hand myself.)

As much as I appreciate and respect Socrates, he (as with virtually all pre-Baconian philosophers) relied strongly on reason and extremely unsystematic chosen exemplars to posit hypotheses, many of which have since proven greatly mistaken. (His student's student Aristotle polished this to a fine art.) Baconian science is empirical, Socrates is best known for an interrogative technique.

This isn't to say that some of the suggestions made by Socrates and other philosophers are necessarily wrong. But it is quite rare for same to have been grounded in anything remotely resembling what we'd now call scientific knowledge, a phrase whose apparent redundancy is best resolved by noting that "science" now means not merely knowledge but the systematic approach of observing, deducing, testing, and validating hypotheses, something Socrates did not practice, and Harper has.

Which isn't to say that the shallow interpretation of Harper's narrative might not also be false. But for a third time, that's not my point, the co-evolution of systems and pathologies is, and I'd hope that at least some of my readers here have managed to grasp that concept despite my own bungled attempts to express it.

You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of current state of the payment landscape in the US.

Besides Home Depot (well known contactless incapable merchant due to an unfortunate payment terminal deployment cycle) or Walmart (to push Walmart Pay in the US and Mexico, they accept contactless in 20 other countries!), contactless is fairly widespread in the US and magstripe captures when a chip is available is an automatic chargeback loss (“EMV liability shift” as of Oct 1st, 2015).

Interestingly, Wise (formerly TransferWise) is currently rotating their card numbers due to a partner change, and they’re going digital first in mobile wallets (with a replacement physical card available if you insist). Strong signal in the direction we’re headed (bridging the gap between physical cards of yesterday and digital wallets of tomorrow). Look at trajectory and velocity, not a static snapshot in time.

"With my own eyes"

But what sort of eyes are those?

Priming the opsins in your retina is a continuous process, and primed opsins are depleted rapidly by light. Fully adapting your eye to darkness takes a great deal of darkness and a great deal of time - on the order of an hour should set you up.

Most human beings in arctic regions live in places and engage in lifestyles where it's impossible to even come close to attaining the full light sensitivity of the human retina in perfect darkness. The sky never gets dark enough in a city or even a small town to get the full experience, and if you saw your smart watch five minutes ago you still haven't fully recovered your night vision. Even a sliver of moon makes remote dark-sky-sites dramatically brighter.

Everybody is going to have different degrees of the experience because they'll have eyes with different degrees of dark adaptation. And their brains are going to shift around the ~10^3x dynamic range of the eye up or down the light intensity scale by a factor ~10^6, without making it obvious to them.

Yeah, SM64 is weird because a lot of '3d' objects used billboarding, it was actually just a flat object always facing the camera, so they don't scale up well. Anything spherical (chain chomp for example).

Hilarious proof:

The characters in Mario Kart 64 were like that too, they just prerendered a heap of different angles and inserted the appropriate one.

With recompilation we could change those things, but I'm not sure how much work it would be and how many people who care to play those games would want to alter them that much.

Early 3d games will always have those rough edges sadly.

Besides normal 1:1s, there's also pathological ones...

The worst 1:1s I've seen is when the IC is aligned and capable and driven, but the manager is wildly misaligned/erratic in an actively counterproductive barrier way.

Like a lot of crazy bits corporate dysfunction, it might not sound like too big a deal in abstract, until you see a particular real-world example of it, and how harmful it is to the IC.

People go into the meeting upbeat and on the right track, and come out of the meeting with looks of dread, and nearing tears or shaking, from the inexplicable brick wall. Then keep repeating that pattern, for each routine 1:1.

Incidentally, in two instances in which I was close enough to intercede, it eventually turned out that the manager with the bizarre behavior was being enabled/shielded by someone else, for complicated reasons that included personal trust/obligation relationships, and sometimes CYA. This wasn't immediately obvious, and took time-consuming digging, until the inexplicable is partly explained.

In situations like those, IMHO, the most urgent priority is to protect the IC's health (and career), even if you don't know exactly what's going on. Then, understand and see what can be done to help the manager, while in parallel rescuing whatever the work that everyone was supposed to be doing. I don't have enough experience with that to suggest methodology (and hopefully never again have occasion to figure it out).
Really nice work as always. I love reading these to learn more about these systems, for little tidbits of writing Clojure programs, and for the writing style. Thanks for what you do!
There's no single one "what", but:

Western rome kept feuding with itself and hiring germanic tribes as mercenaries. After a while, the germanic mercenaries were thoroughly trained in fighting western romans, and eventually western rome pissed off germanic mercenaries and lost the resulting war.

Eastern rome didn't have as many germanic tribes as neighbors, and they had less infighting to begin with.

One of the major reasons earlier-rome had so much military success was that they conquered their neighbors before said neighbors successfully copied all their (really quite amazing) military doctrines.

Delayed ACKs are not the "real problem". For the last 10 years I haven't encountered a single environment where Nagle's algorithm would be a net win. No heuristics, no fancy auto-sensing. It should be off by default.

If you're working in distributed systems, fintech, mobile network optimization, broadcasting, the first thing you should do is switch off Nagle's algorithm. Animats should focus on Second Life and stop holding on to what's now a very bad default.

Yes, or by extending the pixels on the edge out forever. The question is which one is more effective for compression; it turns out doing that for individual blocks rather than the entire image is better.

(With mirroring things could happen like the left edge of the image leaking into the right, and that'd be weird.)

Again, a medieval economy is not an industrial one. In the 1800s, there was plenty of urban demand for food that rural farmers could cash in on, but in medieval western Europe we're looking at roughly a 97%/3% rural/urban divide. With that kind of imbalance the average rural farmer would not have the opportunity to sell off a significant amount of excess crop. The opportunities for an individual serf to profit off of increased productivity simply weren't there.

By the late medieval period, sure, there was somewhat more robust intercity trade. But that's approaching 1000 years after the fall of the western Roman empire, which is stretching it if you want to claim cause and effect.
Couldn’t agree more. I’ve done loads lot interesting work at startups, but never had the time to formalize and publish it.

Glad to hear it's not AI-generated. The inflation number being lower instead of higher was extremely odd and AI is generally bad at math. The paragraph mentioned was very close to the Wikipedia entry in sequence.

This reminds me of https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/05/business/economy/labor-st...

Apparently BLS has a semi-private email group where they discuss the algorithm used to determine the inflation numbers. When tweaks to the underlying algorithm were planned, people in this select group were notified when the general public was not. The actual inflation numbers were not shared though, doing so would be illegal.
