well, the only credential is that they're on my network! though fwiw i think even if there were credentials people on my LAN snooping my creds is not part of my threat model i care about at all, same with sending them to whoever owns home.com

because security has a cost that you shouldn't pay unless it makes sense to

While non-disclosure by doctors prescribing drugs they profit from is unethical, I would be interested to know if doctors change which drugs they prescribe if when paid by different pharma companies ie are doctors recommending the drugs because they are being paid or are they just being paid because they recommend the drugs.

Look, the new Settings app is far from perfect, but one can like a new feature it has with reservations about its rewrite.
Looks like the operating system is only for managing browser windows. There are no native apps of any kind. Plenty of great browser apps exist but that's worse than a chromebook in terms of usability.
And that makes the security associated with it any more important than my kept documents how?

Not on my LAN it isn't! Why would I care who owns the domain?
i think another thing is people don't realize how well-heeled a lot of opiate addicts are, so they see someone from a similar class background to them talking about the difficulty of getting opiates and they automatically assume they are not drug-seeking.

addiction does not see class, especially for these drugs
A truism in the computer modeling communities of the 1970s and 1980s was “the product of a modeling exercise is not the computer model, but the modeler”.

The insight gained by rigorously modeling a system in computer code produces a person (the modeler) who can provide valuable insight when asked questions about the system. In policy analysis, the modeler’s insight can often provide quick and dirty and auditable (and often correct) analyses/answers about the modeled system without ever running the developed formal computer model. The exercise of the formal development of a computer model credentials the modeler as having gained a level of rigorous systems-level expertise. And the scope and detail of that modeler knowledge is certified in the depth and breadth of the computer model itself (and the currency and accuracy of the input data sets).

Nice to have such an human analyst around when important policy decisions need to be made, since such policy decisions should be made and implemented by humans who can explain the confidence that exists regarding the knowledge that supports the given decision. The decision makers can then point to the analysts for the estimate of the degree of confidence that can be ascribed to the policy analysis that supports the decision. That’s how it’s supposed to work, and that philosophy is formalized in existing decision processes for complex technical systems such as transportation, telecommunications, power, military systems, etc.. You know, the important stuff….
Team Fortress 2 has plagues by aimbots for the past few years, yet VALVe have done practically nothing to aid the situation. VALVe are still raking in an income from Team Fortress 2 (via lootcrates and a PVE gamemode), yet nothing has been done to fix any of the issues in official VALVe servers.
> he's asking me to read a story about them

But that is the thing. We all learned that in order to enjoy a story we kinda pretend to believe it. Just sticking with Tolkien, you read the first line of the Lord of the Rings: “When Mr Bilbo Baggins of Bag End announced that he would shortly be celebrating his eleventy-first birthday with a party of special magnificence, there was much talk and excitement in Hobbiton.” And you can right there and then say: “What a load of bollocks. There is no such a place as Hobbiton.” And then you close the book. And you are right! There is no such place as Hobbiton.

Of course you will be poorer for it. But that thing, where for the sake of the enjoyment of the story we pretend that “Mr Bilbo Baggins of Bag End” exists enough to hear the next sentence is the suspension of disbelief! Where you keep reading instead of calling the writer a liar is where you suspended your disbelief. It is the basis of all fiction. It is so inherent that you often don’t see it. The same way a fish don’t see the water. But it is there.

What you are talking about, the importance of having an internaly consistent story, is not where suspension of disbelief is, but where by abusing it the writer breaks it. And suddenly as it is shattered you realise its previous existence.

The goal is not to not have suspension of disbelief. Because you can’t tell any fiction without it. The goal is to not abuse it in order that the reader can enjoy the work.
There seem, to me, really two bifurcating paths ahead. Maybe 2.5.

In both of them, AI is Not My Problem.

In A, we get a technological singularity, and AI is beneficial and benevolent; life is radically improved. In A.5, we don’t quite get to that technological singularity immediately, but get vast improvements in domain-specific systems from individually optimized models. Life is still significantly improved, so much that the edges of post-scarcity start to hit. This is the only one with a maybe caveat, but if anything it’d be leveling disparities.

In B, we get a technological singularity (or closeish) but fail to get the alignment problem down. The Terminator movies are so far from how badly we’d lose it won’t matter.

The way you blocked out everything else in the post to reiterate your question, which they had already answered fine unless you are doing the thing I accused you of, in which case I reiterate: go away

> Did atoms exist before they were discovered to exist?

Hmm, I think you misunderstood my previous answer. I'll try again.

We knew about the existence of atomic matter since humans have been a species, with overwhelming amounts of evidence. There is no "before" in that sense.

(If you mean "before humans and the concept of science existed" then the answer is yes but it has no relevance to a question of whether science is missing anything.)
Would love to know the ratio of marketing spend to R&D on this thing.
Doctors who are paid to endorse a drug should lose their licence
This is hardly an American thing; you see the same in Europe, and presumably other places. This is why antibiotics resistance is a problem in many parts of the world.

I once overheard a coworker give a doctor a right bollocking over the phone because he wouldn't prescribe antibiotics for her daughter who had the flu, and she then proceeded to tell rant how ridiculous that doctor was. I've rarely had to spend more effort to stop myself from saying some rather unpleasant (albeit true) things.
Learn about SpaceOS => Just goes to a page with no information on it...

Is it a ChromiumOS fork or something? Seems to only mention web applications and the only visible screens are a browser window.
This is the bad kind of statistic, because it doesn't actually tell us anything interesting about the impact on individual doctors (but does sound scary / impressive!).

A Google search says the US has 1 million doctors, so $12B over 10 years is $12k/doctor/year on average - nice, but not wow...

The linked article did actually have something useful to say on a per-doctor basis:"The analysis showed that more than half of physicians received at least one payment, and roughly 94% of payments were associated with one or more marketed medical products. A small percentage of physicians received the largest amounts, often exceeding $1 million".

So: nice but small for most doctors, rather (too?) large for a small percentage.
This might be early AR product but from my friends who use VisionPro , I feel eventually we all will be using something like this often.
Add some content to the pages ASAP. An empty page makes people go away. Reddit used fake users to post storiesuntill they were big enough to get real users posting. It's a dark pattern, but you can post under your own name if you don't like it.

Perhaps reduce the number of labels, I think 5 labels with content is batter than 20 empty labels. Perhaps add the 5 with content at the top, a line, a singn "and thiese labels are under construction ..." and the other 15 empty labels. If people clik on one of them too much, try to add content to that label.

The initial comunity of HN and SO was the readers of the blog of the founders. Try blogging to get followers that you can try to convert to users. I think you can post https://medium.com/@andreashafsaas/all-product-managers-have... but wait a few days so people don't complian you are posting too much. And more importantly, before posting add some content to some labels.
I may just be coming at this from a different angle (as someone with chronic genetic conditions), but differentiating between "health care" and "medical care" seems like unnecessarily splitting hairs to me. The place I go every few months to get the drugs that make me a functional human being has "health" in the name :P

Like, I understand where you're coming from on the diet angle specifically, but some of this strikes me as painting with strokes that are just a bit too broad for the other thousands of reasons people need drugs or surgery.

Why is that? Surely you mean without proper disclosure.
You're right. I am old though and it has been a shifting demographic.

At the same time, it seemed like the resumes passed in came disproportionately from the white males.

But at the same time this is just from memory so maybe I'm full of shit or its confirmation bias.
I'm tired of science reporting overselling technology. They are starting with the idealized outcome: "this film lets you turn glasses into night vision!" When the reality is far from that. New technologies in development should be framed in terms of the goals and applications, but then establish more grounded facts of where the state of the art is, the proof of concept that exists, and the state that the technology is currently in.
No, it still isn't aware of the notch, and there has been no update in over 2 years. The app seems to be abandoned.

I love this response. The beauty of claiming one’s art with a confident but plain “I” and then following with a clear and concise answer.

How do you view your day job? As a necessary evil to pay the bills? As a good “real world” counterweight to the arts? I ask in good faith and genuine curiosity as I am likewise drawn to the arts but have over the years come to appreciate how my tech career keeps my feet planted on the ground.
Last update was three years ago, so probably not.
This is correct. It isn't validation or technical series. It is purely review.
Okay, but imagine you work in public health. We have decades of attempts at convincing and helping people to make lifestyle changes. There are a thousand diet plans, a thousand attempts at consumer education, and it's gotten us this far, which isn't very.

What non-pharmaceutical intervention would you propose- something that could be rolled out as a program- that hasn't been done before, and would work, in say the next decade?

Because at a population level, these drugs seem to be doing more than the cumulative efforts of a million dietitians.
Ugh, this sucks. This app was nearly essential on MacBooks with a notch, since you could hide lesser used icons away to make everything fit.
That's not what that comment says, or even implies.
It depends on the doctor. Seeing as some doctors give them too freely and others would rather let patients suffer, I propose we just save time and use a roulette table. It's transparent, easy, and you know exactly why you're been awarded or deprived of pain medication.
I don't think those things are really different. Consider, for the sake of argument, that the doctors are endorsing drugs from the goodness of their hearts for the betterment of humanity. What incentive do the pharmas have to pay them? They're not known for altruism. If the payment had no impact whatsoever, they'd save their money. If docs know they might get paid, that's really not ethically different from having a payment agreement in advance.
> Closer to the minimal amount of information I need

It makes me wonder what this 'need' is that can be filled by memetic drivel.
Oh my gosh... well... thanks for that. I've been wanting that feature for many years.

That is bizarre UI/UX. I should just be able to scroll up when viewing my play queue or have a button directly on that page to see the history.
> Though ProcessMonitor is distributed as an application (in order to satisfy Apple's codesigning and notarization requirements), it is a CLI utility.

You don’t need an app for that. You can sign and notarize executables just fine, I do it all the time. You can’t staple the notarization but that’s not mandatory, it gets resolved on the first run of the tool.
I've been using Tuple for years even before COVID while working at Pivotal Labs.

Even though we have Slack huddles, Zoom meetings, Google hangouts, and more available. We prefer Tuple to the rest. It's the best app for screen sharing (and obviously for pairing).

Their support staff are also really good. They get back to you quickly with actual help from caring people.

The app has improved impressively since I first started using it. There are tons of useful features that devs will love. My top favorites are:

1) Scriptable lifecycle triggers. I use this to pause Spotify when joining a call.

2) Hiding certain apps content from being shared (messengers, pw managers, etc.)

3) They give a lot of control to viewers of a screen share. What resolution is streamed, what keyboard buttons I want to send when controlling, drawing, emoting, typing, etc. All make for a seamless experience.

Disclaimer: I am NOT a Tuple employee and I do not know any Tuple employees personally. I am just a fanboy.

Its core feature is a non-cosmetic change: it hides the menubar app icons, and then shows them on-demand. The ability to make cosmetic changes to the menubar is a comparatively recent development.
Is it fair to say that 'expect vs ht' is the same as 'curl vs headless browser'?
I have a bit of a spiritual, but also actually a super practical take.

Imo this whole situation finally liberates us from chasing things for personal gain, for result, being driven by selfish ego. And instead allows us to focus on what we really enjoy or find meaning in _doing_, for the sake of the process, not the outcome. Which is basically the definition of selfless action (karma-yoga) and is one of several paths to elevated conciousness.

Can confirm from my personal experience (of being a shitty but joyful musician among other things) that this indeed is a great way of dealing with this reality. The key is not to compare yourself to AI or other people but to just keep playing your own games that have personal meaning and satisfaction.
>[...] always omitting the second [...]

You're omitting a lot of information yourself. What was the reason given by the airline and CTA for why your claim was invalid? How was the flight booked? What was the nature of the delay? Why was the cab ride $400? How did you even get to a taxi stand? If you're waiting for a connecting flight wouldn't you be trapped in the airport airside?

There's another possibility: that everything discoverable by humans as been discovered.

Before long, AIs and organizations will be claiming to prove things that no human has the capacity to verify with reasonable confidence, or humans will run or of capacity or make progress. We just had the 1000 page Geometric Langlands proof.
I just tried, wasted five minutes and couldn't for the life of me figure out how to move things out of the (always?) hidden group they're in by default. Eventually found the instruction for it on the issue tracker: https://github.com/jordanbaird/Ice/issues/42 While I do remember now that cmd+drag is how you reorder menu bar icons, so that is sort of intuitive for people familiar with the behavior, I haven't done that for years and definitely need a reminder. Seems very strange that the very first nontrivial action isn't documented anywhere (maybe it is but I still don't see it)...

While searching for how to move anything out of hiding, I also landed on https://github.com/jordanbaird/Ice/issues/29#issuecomment-19.... Apparently Ice can only hide one segment of the menu bar at once, so if the icons are rearranged for some reason, they can show up in a wrong section. Author promises a future update will fix this, but at the moment Bartender is still the best option unfortunately.
Unlike the downers comments, I find this very exciting. Finally a leap (ugh!) forward that isn't more ppi on a screen.

Even if this product ends up being a sub-par in terms of expectations vs. reality, it's not unaffordable; and it may set a trend forward towards AR computing.

It does look, uh, a little weird on people's face. But at least it's not the size of a cat on your face.

As for the software, all we can hope is that they just open it up. Very few companies in the world can do software and hardware in perfect harmony.
Could you elaborate? I'm curious why that makes a difference.
I wish Linux (and other Unix-like systems) had an API to let you create named temporary files which are automatically deleted - by the operating system - when a process exits.

If you create an anonymous temporary file, then it will be deleted when the last file descriptor to it is closed-but anonymous temporary files are difficult to use (even given access via /dev/fd aka /proc/self/fd). You can delete it using atexit() but that doesn’t get run if the process terminates abnormally (core dump, kernel panic, kill -9, power outage, etc)

Maybe something like a pidtmpfs where the top-level directories are pid numbers, you can create any files or directories you want under them, but it all disappears as soon as the process with that pid exits. Actually, pids are a bad idea due to pid reuse, you want something like a process serial number or a process UUID which doesn’t get reused.

Another somewhat more flexible idea would be that you can create arbitrary top-level directories, but they - and all their content - are automatically deleted as soon as the last open fd to them is closed. That way you could have multiple processes sharing a temporary workspace, and the workspace could survive the failure of any one of them, but if they all fail it gets deleted
I want more info on this - who made it? how was it made?
802.1x is a secure login procedure, and then the port is open until link is dropped. There's no encryption or authentication per packet (it would be way too expensive), and if you put a switch between the ont and the modem, when you disconnect the modem, the ont doesn't see the link drop.

Managed switches or software ethernet bridges don't always propigate 802.1x packets, but unmanaged switches don't care.
It's a Snapdragon (not even one of the new whizzy ones) laptop running some sort of Android build? Very light duty as an office laptop. If it runs tmux I could probably get Emacs going on it and do some dev, but I sure as shit am not building large Rust codebases on it.
I would rather someone focuses on AR glasses that work really well and can work with my computer of choice.

There’s a setting to kinda get around having to use apps like this if you’re dealing w the notch. I don’t recall the specific command, but there is a way to shrink the icon spacing to allow more visible icons.
