If so, then shouldn't these doctors be able to demand better conditions? Threatening to do less work unless pay is improved or more nurses are hired or some changes to the job are made. That would grind the hospital to a halt.

Not sure about that, but given the TAM, associated market value, and obvious juicy opportunity -- what prevents driven alternatives (even Apple Silicon) from biting off portions of this TAM?
I'm certainly not qualified to speak on this but I heard this story recently about an effective treatment for alcoholism that's been available for decades but for complicated reasons hasn't been widely accessible: https://www.reflector.show/p/how-to-listen-to-episode-1-the-...

Right. I sound just like someone talking about how "a language which emphasizes immutability" is an OK replacement for a language with pure functions.
Yeah, other GLP-1 receptor agonists are expected to have similar effects. One of the effects of GLP-1 receptor activation is a reduction in the rate of gastric emptying. So it slows down digestion and gives you a full, satiated feeling. Guess the urge for some drugs is related to the urge for food and that's how it supresses drug use. But the last bit is speculation on my part.
I bet the hardware you're running on wants to have a word.

Wether if it's from Samsung, Apple, Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA or AMD. And lately, Intel too.

ASML
I was on a project that was subject to the cleared UAS list you linked, and I cannot recommend either Parrot (incredibly long boot times, underpowered motors meant it was slow and had poor station keeping in high winds) or Skydio (bad heat management/low thermal cutoffs to the point that during the California high desert summer our unit wouldn't even start due to reporting that it was overheated) at all. So maybe its not too bad that they're no longer for sale.
How exactly are you supposed to do that, when your license includes their right to audit your business? If you refuse them they're going to sue you, and they have far more money to spend on lawyers than your business.
Am I dense, or is it actually showing how much total global CO2 mitigation we can expect from each sector?

I.e., it shows we expect countries to build much more renewables than nuclear until 2030, which may be a good choice for them, but that doesn't mean renewables are 10x more efficient. (If Tesla Model X sells 10x as many as Hyundai Ioniq 6, that doesn't mean Model X is 10x as efficient.)

even that ridiculous propaganda article says that most fabs aren't selling at a loss

the usa has been pushing this overcapacity/dumping nonsense for 12 years now, when solar panels cost 80¢ a watt. now they cost 8¢ a watt, down by half since last year's prices, prices which had been held steady for several years only by a price-fixing cartel. this is precisely what you would expect in a niche technology as it becomes mainstream: the costs drop dramatically as you climb down the learning curve. one mechanism in that process is that the less efficient producers are driven out of the market because they can only sell at a loss

by contrast, if this were actually a question of dumping and overcapacity, you'd see the prices drop to the dumping level, eventually driving out of the market the vendors who required a profit, after which the remaining vendors would raise their prices to a level higher than before. you'd have to believe that someone in china is spending something like 72¢ a watt to subsidize the buildout of solar farms in the entire rest of the world over more than a decade with the objective of monopolizing a market that's entirely built on the assumption of solar panels being cheap. this strategy would have cost about 500 billion dollars to pull off, since the total world solar generation capacity built out by this 'dumping' is about a terawatt now, and the payoff would be that when you tried to raise prices back to a dollar a watt, nobody would buy your product

of course that's wildly implausible, so nobody actually claims that. the supposed 'subsidies' that the us department of commerce accuses china is applying get smaller and smaller over time, so they're implicitly admitting that the supposed 'dumping' a year or two previously wasn't actually dumping at all, and the supposed 'overcapacity' was actually just manufacturing capacity brought online a year or two before washington thinks it should be

if you read the filings, they're really ridiculous: the supposed 'subsidies' are things like 'provision of electricity for less than adequate remuneration', 'preferential loans and directed credits', 'provision of land-use rights for less than adequate remuneration', etc. they're literally arguing over whether the price of electricity and commercial real estate is too low in china or not. if you want to read this bullshit you can start at https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/07/11/2023-14... but be warned that you may turn into a rabid ayn rand fan

I mean, if you want a supported phone with a headphone jack and swappable battery, you're pretty much just down to the Samsung Galaxy Xcover now, which has a CPU from 6 years ago and no fingerprint reader. It's definitely possible, but nowadays there's major tradeoffs to get features that used to be standard.

Those features are mostly being added to existing products and therefore aren't supporting new revenue streams. It remains to be seen if these features are popular enough to become table stakes for the existing OS and productivity software businesses and justify continued investment.
> There is a strong argument to be made that paper charts were more efficient and provided better quality documentation with better user experience than modern EMR software systems.

> Also, this is one place where AI can potentially provide both a more efficient system and greatly improve job satisfaction for physicians. Automatically generating and updating medical records based off ambient recordings of patient interactions fits right into LLMs wheelhouse.

No, LLM's are not reliable enough for that.

If the technology sucks and is in fact a regression, the solution is not to hope yet more half-backed technology will fix the problem. The solution is to dump the technology until someone can actually do it right.

If paper charts are better, go back to paper charts...and maybe hire a digitization/data entry team to realize whatever benefits to electronic records there are.
Does the union actually do much for them? I know in a lot of blue collar work unions are actually serious, and can do strikes and stop a business in it's tracks if the workers feel they are being mistreated. Why does that not happen with doctors? I've not heard about it happening, anyway.

Europe is far from noble, just different mentality and expectations from life. VW keep saying that next year VW Golf robotaxis are coming and not delivering wouldn't fly, therefore we don't have crazy stock prices.

Airbus keeps making good quality planes that don't fall from the skies, selling those then flying around. It's alright, I don't know why the government should attack Airbus but maybe the US government should have kept Boeing in check.

Europeans have their ways and Americans have theirs. Let's keep it like that and not put all the eggs in the same basket, as it appears that Chinese came up with another hugely successful economy model.
And if it really is a cure for obesity and alcoholism, we'll all be better off for it.

I think my broader point is that whatever technology has been adopted hasn't had a noticeable effect and that's due to the usage, attitude and hence supporting infrastructure to adopt them.

GP asked what use a smartphone would have, implying that it could only ever be bad. I'm just arguing that this isn't necessarily the case, not that we should adopt it or even that adoption is likely.
A radical point of view. And as such it is of course wrong ;).

First of all, there are languages where dry-running your code with all parameters mocked is still a valid test run. Python, js, and Perl for instance make it very simple to have a stupid error in the routine that crashes every run.

But more importantly, a unit test usually executes inside the same process as the code. That gives you tremendous introspection capabilities and control over the execution flow.
Testing for a specific path or scenario is exactly what you should do there.

Finally, what if not mocks, are in-memory filesystems or databases? They, too, won't show all the behaviors that the real thing will do. And so so test containers or even full dedicated environments. It's all going to be an approximation.
Agree with everything has trade offs but do not agree that they are equivalent in impact. Tradeoffs have tradeoffs

That's an extremely niche application unlikely to be scaled down to anything smaller than a backpack like laser ring gyros. As such, this type of positioning gear isn't for consumer use and is targeted mostly for underground surveying.

> What percent of these requests do Meta, Google or Microsoft fight? Ratios like that matter

What others are doing doesn't matter, that's whataboutism. Yes there's many shittier services, and Proton is much better than them.

What matters is if you can trust Proton to be private, and the answer is... mostly.

Yes I like Proton and I use Proton as my daily email driver, because I don't expect privacy from governments, I just don't want Google tracking.

But a lot of people see the "no logs" thing and think that there's never any logs, which is not true, they add them on request, and they've done it based on foreign government requests, for questionable searches, as I've linked above.

If you want privacy in your hands, use Tor when accessing Proton and pay in crypto obviously.

Those are techniques needed for privacy because they can access that data and you can't trust them to safeguard any data they can access because they legally can't.

It's not their fault, it's just the system, but you must expect it.

> Westinghouse sold the Chinese 4x AP1000

https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/country-profil...

> Westinghouse has agreed to transfer technology to SNPTC over the first four AP1000 units so that SNPTC can build the following ones on its own.

So it seems a bit unfair to say the Chinese somehow reversed engineered the AP1000 design.

This also happened when Combustion Engineering sold the System 80+ design (a derivative of that deployed at Palo Verde) to South Korea. Apparently Combustion Engineering were in financial trouble and did what was necessary to get the deal, although Westinghouse (who eventually came to own the Combustion Engineering intellectual property) are currently disputing this deal.

It is a good book for someone who is familiar with programing computers. It is not the best way to introduce the concepts behind writing software to someone who has never written a computer program. The very beginning does the book disservice

> A computational process is indeed much like a sorcerer's idea of a spirit. It cannot be seen or touched. It is not composed of matter at all. However, it is very real. It can perform intellectual work. It can answer questions. It can affect the world by disbursing money at a bank or by controlling a robot arm in a factory. The programs we use to conjure processes are like a sorcerer's spells. They are carefully composed from symbolic expressions in arcane and esoteric programming languages that prescribe the tasks we want our processes to perform.

Not everyone appreciates that kind of language and the suggestion that software development is some kind of alchemy that can only be understood by the chosen ones is the kind of bullshit that makes people loose interest. It actually projects an amateurish not professional image of the profession. I always found the SCIP crowd unbearable. Which is sad, because there is good information and solid knowledge in that book.
Not to mention Nokia.
Do you still have to take the pill?
Agree. But they also have a lot of hardware features. Mixed precision GEMM (fp8 and soon fp3), async copies and now TMA, now global shared memory. And with Blackwell they claim 50% less power, too. They are 10 years ahead of the competition and with a massive budget. I think they reached escape velocity.

Intel and Microsoft had the problem of competing with their previously sold products. Most of their users only needed a basic PC for email, Word, and Excel. Nvidia doesn't have this problem because previous hardware generations quickly become obsolete as the demand for compute keeps growing and it's easier to manage newer clusters.
> Can't wait for them to declare that starliner is actually the newest ISS module and it ain't coming back.

I know that's probably a joke, but that would be incredible bad for NASA. There is already strong competition for access to docking ports on the ISS. Losing one would badly complicated logistics on the station.

Adobe did not "capture" the old single license sales customers, they are just walking away from them.. any way they can, into the cloud.. the results look similar but thinking about the power dynamics that drive them, here...

what I meant to say is.. that the driver to launch a great experience is first, then it is easy and tempting to change the cloud terms.. not compared to the deal you get with desktop purchase.. not because you captured the single license customers with better deals in the cloud.. but because the cloud is just so easy to change, the money so tempting..

maybe the anecdote.. when Apple stopped caring so much about the desktop, after the iPhone.. they did not "capture" the single sale customers.. they just walked away to focus completely on the new, more profitable model

The AA industrial complex has such a hold on this part of our medical system, I doubt you'll see doctors prescribing it to reduce drinking. I was drinking too much, told my doctor, got the usual crap about going to AA. I asked for a naltrexone prescription. He hadn't heard of it, said it wouldn't work, but did give it to me. Alcoholism cured. We already know how to fix it, there's just a lot of people making money off selling the ineffective program from 100 years ago.

In 1950 the Chinese had 83% working in agriculture, the USA had 7%. (Today it is 22% and 1.6%)

You could argue they had access to abundant cheap labor but it is more practical to say we don't have access because everything is insanely expensive. Everything we do primarily benefits people who are useless to the process.

If you cant afford babies there is no need to have a family, no need to build houses for them. If one does accidentally a baby training and educating it should benefit everyone except the baby and the future?

Proton has the burden of proof, and has continually failed to ensure their systems are E2E. They have failed to develop better tech like signal, and continue to change their infrastructure to appease swiss orders that come from other countries.

They have every means to decrypt, they control both the client software, server, and data. You would never know if they logged your key, and they can be compelled to by flimsy order.

Enshittification usually refers to companies that run two-sided markets ("platforms"), like rideshare and delivery apps. Adobe raising prices on everyone isn't really the same thing. Enshittification works by first subsidizing everything for everyone, then alternately squeezing the sellers and buyers on the platform by increasing their cut and raising prices. It's about playing a game where you alternately squeeze one side or another of a marketplace that you control.

Adobe doesn't really run a platform, they're selling a product and finding ways to raise the price.

Indeed, and we never seem to learn. Lumber prices in the US during Covid were eye-watering and wreaked havoc through the whole economy that is still being felt today, and it was almost entirely due to US protectionism of lumber.
That's useless if you need a specific, very new, and patent protected ingredient. For Ozempic generics, that's at least until 2026 until you can go to Brazil or 2031 if you're in the US [1].

The problem at the core is not like the shortages we have in Germany for basic stuff like general fever and pain medication, that's usually due to other countries just bidding more... for Ozempic, it's that virtually every single person gets blasted with joyful weight loss stories by influencers, demand for it is insane, and Novo Nordisk can't keep up with manufacturing despite the growth of the company being enough to account for the economic growth of the entire country of Denmark [2].

True.

I was just talking about my experience with DJI. Where you buy a product, can use it for a bit, and then it stops working, because you haven't connected it to the internet or created an account.

It is often the 'market leaders' that are so afraid to loose customers and their market position to implement customer hostile processes into their products.
They are actually building everything. They have traditional LWR reactors on legacy designs (VVER, EPR, AP1000), bigger LWRs on homegrown designs (Hualong One etc), breeder reactors (CANDU) new 4th gen pebble bed HTGR using acquired German technology and homegrown development and Thorium based MSRs (TMSR-LF1).
