You only pay taxes on Profits (not Losses).

So what's the argument you're trying to make?

It's not like paying taxes would cause you to become unprofitable.
No, it's just a minced oath, as in "dang, that was a good moderation call".
Unluckily I had to deal with trained robots well before any automation arrived to customer service. Those poor underpaid script reading fellow had to brush off those nasty complaining jerks wanting proper service for their money shielded the organization's money collection parts with lots of frustration but efficiency too.

Show HN: The Summarized Times: A Web App for Concise News Summaries
I built a web application called The Summarized Times, which provides concise summaries of the top news articles using the NewsAPI and OpenAI's GPT-4 API. The app fetches the latest headlines, generates short summaries with key bullet points, and displays them in a clean, newspaper-like layout. The app is designed to help users quickly grasp the main points of current news without wading through lengthy articles.

Deployed on Fly.io, the app ensures seamless access and performance. It uses SQLite for caching summaries to optimize API usage and improve response times. Check it out and get your news summaries at a glance.
This story reminds me of the time I accidentally/naively set up a ssh honeypot when I configured the router I was using at the time (this was a long time ago) to forward incoming SSH connections to a ReadyNAS (which was using a Sun SPARC processor) in my house. I did that so I could log into it while I was away from my house. One day, I ssh'ed in and notice that the ReadyNAS was running very slow which surprised me because I thought it was idle. I checked the CPU usage and the sshd was using 100%. First, I thought it was a bug but it occurred to me I should check my incoming ssh connection attempts in my router log. Turns out there were a ton of ssh connection attempts coming from an IP address assigned to China. In response I changed the router port forwarding for incoming ssh connections to use a non-standard port number, like 55,243, and after that my ReadyNAS was no longer bombarded with ssh connection attempts. Lesson: try to avoid forwarding standard port numbers.
>The rise in private equity purchases of hospitals indicates that the money is going somewhere and it's certainly not any kind of "charity".

Ironically when they get bought out by PE they lose their tax exempt status, so that's kinda solving the problem.
The biggest noticeable upgrade for me was keylock noses. Smoother clipping and unclipping made sketchy leads just a bit more tolerable.
You might want to get into touch with some museums on science topics to see if they are up to show it. I live in Germany at the moment and know of at least two MINT focused museums that let visitors engage a lot with their (sometimes digital) exhibits and this here checks all the boxes to make a great exhibit.

Very well done, I'll try to see if my children will enjoy that already too.
It was literally answered directly in the article

> The trial involved about 5,300 women and female adolescents ages 16 to 25 in South Africa and Uganda, some of whom who received Gilead lenacapavir, and others who received older once-daily drugs from Gilead, including Truvada or Descovy.

Not to mention a superficial understanding of how drug trials are conducted would exclude that method.
It’s probably not answering all your questions, but https://manuel.kiessling.net/2021/05/02/tutorial-react-singl... might be worth a read.

Also, although not React/Node, the thoughts laid out in https://manuel.kiessling.net/2012/09/28/applying-the-clean-a... have served me well over the years.
"Profit" means income in excess of expenses, and in for-profit companies the profit is used either reinvested or paid to the owners as a dividend.

Credit unions (and other US 501c3 organizations) do not exist to make a profit, and any income they have in excess of expenses is reinvested. There are no dividends.

These are two utterly different sorts of things.
It's not a lie, it's a trivial mistake done by whoever was drafting the document.

The worst part: It's a tax writeoff like all the other business expenses they're so happy to buy without question. Sometimes it's even covered by grant money.
They can ban the use of any software that is "designed to circumvent" such laws, which would be any encrypted peer-to-peer communication software.

And enforcement doesn't need to be 100% effective to make a difference. Fairly simple measures are sufficient to deter and/or block well over 90% of the populace and force them into controlled channels, as China demonstrates.
My instant reaction to this was “Wait, is that PH10?”. Read the article, and of course it is.

Even in the 90s he was a famous hacker around the Computer Lab.

Not sure about that, plane-launched FABs are creating havoc on the Ukrainian front-lines.

> Being able to pretty effectively take down threats doesn't mean you need to unnecessarily risk it

Of course, but that's how you get to the "Fleet in being" [1] situation, which I'm not sure it's the ideal solution for the US Navy, which (afaik) consumes about a third of the US military budget. I mean, how would the US Navy commanders be able to explain that they're spending that much money only for their magnificent warships to avoid direct battle contact?

> striking back against NATO air defense in Ukraine should give folks like China some serious pause in their own planning.

Neither China nor Russia depend on their fleets in order to win existential wars for them, as they're both continental powers, so not sure a Russian cruiser ending on the bottom of the Black Sea will make any strategic difference. Also, geographically speaking there's no sea between South Korea and both Russia and China, and the sea distance between the same China and Taiwan is pretty small, they'd be able to provide artillery/missile cover for it entirely from land.

Even if it may feel universal that is likely not reflecting the actual distribution of the perception. (ref: Inferring the Popularity of an Opinion From Its Familiarity: A Repetitive Voice Can Sound Like a Chorus https://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/releases/psp-925821.pdf)

Additionally, feelings are fine for personal behavior but legislation requires a higher level of evidence. I really do believe what I am saying: addiction is an inappropriate concept to apply here since incentive salience is not being directly hijacked. The types of legislative responses to social problems of addiction (like to cocaine) are not appropriate or justified in this context.

To be clearer: enjoyable things with intrinsic value are being targeted in this context and those things are enjoyed. While addiction involves uncontrollable reptition of things without intrinsic value which become wanted due to the system for wanting being activated directly. Stimuli on screens do not do this. Drugs do. That's why it's gambling disorder and drug addiction. That extra layer of abstraction through the senses makes all the different.
The other issue is the ability to respond to extreme heat quickly enough.

We work with fruit growers in South Eastern Australia where temperatures routinely hit high 30s and even low-mid 40s (°C) a few days each year.

Those growers want to see our soil moisture data readings updated every 15 minutes so they can turn the drippers on very quickly as soon as the soil starts drying out rapidly.

It would just be too slow to rely on robots driving up and down the rows in those conditions.
The EU is a different beast entirely. People in the EU get a lot of rights that people in the US don't.

That said, one of the many many problems of the "free market" is that it depends on there being a company willing to leave huge stacks of money and power on the table.

Maybe some company could take a few customers from their competitors by offering great refunds and fair terms when no one else will, but why would they ever do that when they'll make far more money if they screw over their customers just like everyone else is doing? Sometimes, it will always be more profitable for companies to refuse to give consumers what they want, at which point it becomes impossible to vote with your wallet since there is no one to give your money to except those who are doing what you'd prefer to "vote" against.

Especially when companies are either colluding directly with each other or just looking for the company with the most oppressive and abusive polices/practices and copying what they do, your options drop off very very quickly. Even if you do manage to find a company that seems like it's good, it's just a matter of time until enshittification kicks in and the service degrades because ultimately, companies are all looking out for themselves and insist on endless growth and higher and higher profits so they all push to charge you as much as they possibly can while delivering as little as possible in return. It's a race to the bottom where you always lose.
Only one I can recall is Hunger games. But he looked familiar in those so i am sure there are others.
I have no clue where most drug research or drug development takes place. Right now the discussion tends to end up with US companies saying they charge so much for new medications to recoup the costs of ideas that didn’t pan out. Since only the drug companies know what didn’t pan out, it’s hard to refute.

If most drug research happens in the US (and, really, I don’t know if that’s true), then it suggests that the US model does a good job of incentivizing research. If another approach could get the same results, it would refute the drug companies’ argument.

No feeds from addictive algorithms? No notifications after midnight? Can we please raise the age from 18 to maybe 65?
This is pure fiction though. How many people read an app's ToS? If a carpet cleaner showed up with terms like: "I'll shampoo your carpet every month if you let me read your credit card bill every month." no one would read it before signing either, but I suspect that a court would also consider this contract unenforceable.

In addition, with software "contracts", it's often a case of "give an inch and they'll take the mile". The terms are always open to unilateral change from the vendor. So it's more like: "I'll shampoo your carpet for $50. And I can change the terms to whatever I like at any point in the future." which in itself seems insane.

Ask HN: How do I become a proactive coder at work?
I feel too reactive with my work. Either waiting for people on what they want changed or handling unexpected bugs. When I’m not waiting on anyone or I understand the issue, I can work a lot and get into a flow state pretty easily. This is when I’m the happiest at work.

I’ve been at my current gig for 9 months and they have many applications, some 20 years old. Their corporate IT hierarchy seems too big for the company. The CIO has 6 people under them, and each one of those people have 10-30 people under them. My boss is one of the 6.

I want to innovate and help the company be profitable. I want to be helpful. I don’t know what steps to take to become more proactive. My feeling is I need to do a lot of reading of whatever documentation there is and create new documentation if what currently exists is lacking.

> Think about healthcare, a doctor's time is incredibly important, so you've got admins and nurses in front of them.

Incredibly important for filling in billing paperwork, because practicing medicine is an increasingly small fraction of a doctor's time. This doesn't necessarily counter your point, but it's interesting how job allocation makes little sense and most expensively trained people are used to do the most menial jobs, because it's somehow cheaper than keeping extra headcount of lower-paid clerical workers.

Same is the case in software industry. A lot software engineer's work involves dealing with bullshit that should be, and used to be, handled by a dedicated staff.
It depends on what exactly you mean by "apply".

For practical purposes, what really matters is whether it can be enforced. So, for example, will your country extradite you if Americans demand it? Or, say, if you travel, will any of the countries that you pass through extradite you?

The reason why DPRK is a particularly bad example is because neither is a concern just about anywhere in the world. But for large and powerful political entities such as US and EU, it is a very real concern.

"In this work, we show that LLM agents can autonomously exploit one-day
vulnerabilities in real-world systems. To show this, we collected a dataset of
15 one-day vulnerabilities that include ones categorized as critical severity
in the CVE description. When given the CVE description, GPT-4 is capable
of exploiting 87% of these vulnerabilities compared to 0% for every other
model we test (GPT-3.5, open-source LLMs) and open-source vulnerability
scanners (ZAP and Metasploit). Fortunately, our GPT-4 agent requires the
CVE description for high performance: without the description, GPT-4 can
exploit only 7% of the vulnerabilities."[1]

Go has the benefit of not having to reach a distributed consensus amongst a variety of individual browser vendors. Try compiling a large Go project with tinygo to get a glimpse of what it's like to have to deal with multiple independent runtimes [1]. If the browser vendors had been able to ship ES4 or ES5 with module support between 1999 and 2009, then Node probably would have implemented it from the very beginning, and there would be no dichotomy between CJS and ESM.

If you liked that, you must read the autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, if not already read.

He was a polymath: a businessman, a scientist, a diplomat, and much more.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Autobiography_of_Benjami...

>The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is the traditional name for the unfinished record of his own life written by Benjamin Franklin from 1771 to 1790; however, Franklin appears to have called the work his Memoirs. Although it had a tortuous publication history after Franklin's death, this work has become one of the most famous and influential examples of an autobiography ever written.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Franklin

>Benjamin Franklin FRS FRSA FRSE (January 17, 1706 [O.S. January 6, 1705][Note 1] – April 17, 1790) was an American polymath: a leading writer, scientist, inventor, statesman, diplomat, printer, publisher, and political philosopher.[1] Among the most influential intellectuals of his time, Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States; a drafter and signer of the Declaration of Independence; and the first postmaster general.[2]
He probably means northern part of India. Surnames are more emphasised in the South than North.

I think it started when British started asking for surnames in job application in colonial India. South Indiana took their birthplace as surname along with caste name. In North, Singh and Kumar were used as surnames. Caste names became quite popular in late 20th century.

Before British, I am not sure if surnames were common anywhere in India. Would be a lovely study in history.
