Health insurance has cost+ pricing in the form of capped margins. One could say it is a case of misaligned incentives. But how would incentives get aligned absent a single payer system?
I disagree. The only difference between the EU regulatory landscape and the US is the EU cares much more about end-consumer protections. They work the same but in backwards directions: the EU starts with the end-consumer and works out how to implement that in the private sector. The US starts with the impact to the private sector and works out how that can help end-consumers.

This means sometimes the EU will pass regulations that are difficult or abstract to implement. And this means the US will miss obvious regulations because they can't gauge the business impact.

The current FTC is attempting to actually enforce some of these more obvious regulations now, and they're facing a lot of push back from the American private sector. Blocking huge mergers that monopolize the free market, disallowing one-sided contract clauses, banning outright lying to consumers... these are obvious, to me. It's been shocking just how much resistance they face.

Is this being done as a sanction against Russia or because it is feared that the Russian government would get some rogue developers to submit code to the kernel that enables attacks?

Individual Russian programmers are not responsible for the invasion of Ukraine, so I would be reluctant to punish them for Putin's crime and to deprive Linux of their contributions.
I think it's worth jumping in. Fifteen years ago, it wasn't clear whether Git, Mercurial, or Bazaar would win, but it was evident that something fundamental had forever changed in revision control systems.

Nix feels similar, but for build systems, package management, and configuration management all at once.
What an objection. My state, until recently, gave officers the on-paper ability to arrest and charge anyone guilty of adultery with a misdemeanor. I doubt you would have appreciated the investigation or enforcement of that statute - or many others still on the books.
Geekbench really should not be used to compare CPUs like this. Geekbench seems to be geared towards comparing mainstream machines / devices with other mainstream machines / devices.

There are many, many applications for which performance isn't as important as cost and/or power draw. For instance, these days it can be cheaper to run an additional microcontroller close to where it's needed than it is to fabricate a wiring harness to bring sensor data all the way to a centralized location. RISC-V excels here.

It's a mature enough ecosystem that people can compile whatever software they want and run it without fuss on RISC-V. Nobody is going to buy a RISC-V laptop with a full GUI and be disappointed when it doesn't perform like a MacBook.

So if I can buy a small SBC with two ethernets and a few RISC-V cores that takes few enough watts they can be counted on a single hand for a handful of dollars so that I can make a hardware VPN device, and I can download and compile most software on it, that interests me. Processors like Intel's N200 have their uses and definitely more performant than RISC-V, but take way too much power and therefore generate way too much heat. So why would I even bother comparing? They're in different leagues.
This is right. I worked in health insurance for a while. If you aren't in Medicare Advantage (which has relatively lower plan churn) it is very unclear that preventative spend on an employer based plan will benefit the payor that paid for it.

Like again, I get what you’re saying, and I agree with it. But my point was, once everyone can generate Pixar-quality movies, they will simply lose the appeal. Maybe it should be that way, maybe it shouldn’t, but crowded market just desensitizes people and makes them shrug.

There will be winner-takes-it-all productions, and that’ll come mostly from the companies with the highest marketing budgets.

The biggest uphill battle that AI content creation companies will have to fight is kind of societal. They’ll need to change public’s perception that AI=“low effort”.

For fun I tried "Formalizing" the original Ecclesiastes verse that Orwell uses in Politics and the English Language, where he translates it into modern English.

The original text is: "I returned and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all."

Orwell's parody is: "Objective considerations of contemporary phenomena compel the conclusion that success or failure in competitive activities exhibits no tendency to be commensurate with innate capacity, but that a considerable element of the unpredictable must invariably be taken into account."

Formalize turns out: "Upon reflection, it becomes apparent that success—whether in the form of victory in a race, strength in battle, provision for the wise, wealth for men of understanding, or favor for those with skill—is not guaranteed solely based on one's abilities. Rather, time and chance play a significant role in these matters for all individuals."
So a business that is entirely dependent on ARM IP and, for the most part, Android should "remind" the company they're dependent upon? Let's do a thought experiment - Qualcomm switches to RISC-V while the other Android SoC makers (MediaTek, Samsung, Google, Xiaomi, etc.) stay on ARM. Who buys the new Snapdragon RISC-V phone?

Just FWI, it's not illegal to add an incorrect license to a repository you don't have the rights to. It's simply a lie. The copyright notice is just a statement from the author, it doesn't per se define the terms under which the project is distributed. What defines them is the fact that it's the author who put the file there.
So you're saying you don't want parents to have the choice to send their children to better performing schools and provide better opportunities for their children?

Having gone to both public and private schools, while I had horrible experiences with both, at least there was teaching going on in my private schools.

My public school experience was horrific, even in NYC's so-called "gifted" schools. My brother's kid only went to NYC public schools and her experiences were so much worse. My public school tried to have me put on psychiatric medication without a diagnosis from a qualified professional and my niece's public school spent two years trying to gaslight her that she was not gay but trans (as well as a whole bunch targeted harassment from her teachers for being vocally politically conservative).

Neither of those things have anything to do with what the schools' mandate should be: education.
This kinda reminds me of how Edo (nowadays known as Tokyo) was a little fishing village back in the Sengoku period.
They actually did that (see sibling replies), and it actually delayed adoption of ipv6 by a few more years, because of things like:

1. some OSes can listen on ipv6-mapped-ipv4 automatically when some application listens on ipv4
2. app is updated to listed on both ipv4 and ipv6
3. at various companies, the updated app fails to start, because it listened on ipv4, which automatically listened on ipv6, and then it tried to listen on ipv6 and failed because the port was already in use
4. The problem is weird and confusing, and the easiest fix is to just disable ipv6 everywhere: in the app, in the OS, everywhere. Then the app works again.
5. The config changes remain untouched for many years (subtle config issue, don't touch!)

I think ipv6 would be more widespread if various auto-adaptation mechanisms were never introduced: 6to4, teredo, etc. I personally experienced this in my teens, one day my browser took 30 seconds to start loading any web page, and just disabling ipv6 everywhere fixed it, and for the next couple years browsers disabled ipv6 by default (whereas they previously were agnostic), and macOS also did a similar thing where it reduced ipv6 enablement by default for a few years, also domains like google.com and facebook.com removed AAAA records they previously had for a few years. They just can't tolerate 1% to 3% of users breaking due to ipv6 mis-config. Adoption would have been much smoother and faster overall, without these significant contributors to automatic-possibly-broken ipv6.

(Yes IPv6 works fine now, with happy-eyeballs, and DHCPv6, and pretty much only real-native ipv6 used anywhere)
I must be their target audience because as soon as they used the example with || it all started making sense.

This would have been fine too but it would trigger some people not to use {}

Unfortunately, you can be denied employment for all sorts of unfair and ridiculous reasons--or for no reason at all. Not too much can be done without changing the law. I remember filling out a job application some time ago where one of the questions was "Have you ever been charged with a crime?" Not "convicted of". It wasn't a mistake, either. There was a footnote that said "You must answer YES to this question even if the charge was dismissed or you were found not guilty in court."
It's also a lazy convention for lazy replies, the sort HN discourages. As you say, it's doing sarcasm, but badly: the writer can blurt out the first quip that comes to mind, regardless of it being related, and hides behind the prestige that sarcasm has, while often only virtue signalling.

If you want to watch a film similar to these themes, check out Playtime from 1967 by Jacques Tati. Something I watched recently.

Playtime works wonderfully as a cinematic satire of contemporary society and our roles.

The film's office scenes are particularly striking because they visualize the dehumanizing aspects of modern office design that cubicle farms would later become notorious for - the uniformity, the loss of privacy despite physical separation, and the way architecture can make people behave more like components in a machine than individuals.

The thing about Playtime is the constant onslaught of appropriate explorations on the theme of an increasingly technical life.

By the time the end of Playtime rolls by, what you get is an examination of what it is like to be human and hopefully you feel a sense of joy in being a part of the human race.

Which it did! It chose the option with the best reviews.

However again the Agent.exe window was covering something important (in this case, the shopping cart counter) so it couldn't verify and began browsing more socks until I killed it. Will submit a PR to autohide the window before screenshot actions.
In communities near me, recent expansions of school vouchers has been a game changer. Public schools are struggling and private schools give students a much better education. Public schools were failing well before private school vouchers existed.
My whole point is that subtyping or row polymorphism alone is not enough to assign types to many valid programs that people intuitively write. My example about list of records shows you what happens when you only have row polymorphism without subtyping. See my other comment. (Nothing prevents you from designing such a type system that's slightly inconvenient though: it's really about whether users would want this type system. Haskell and OCaml both have enjoyed user acceptance without subtyping.)

If you were to go the other direction and choose only subtyping but not row polymorphism to implement records, then you end up co-opting things like intersection types inappropriately leading to unsoundness.
> that I probably should have did all along

I think you've accomplished something really incredible with your weightloss and I'm very proud of you! .... but this part right here concerns me.

The reasons for eating beyond maintenance calories are broad, complicated and robust and I don't think it's fair to say "I should have just been more disciplined, 4head". The negative side-effects of food cravings can be really serious and "too hard" to fight against and that's a reasonable enough stance, especially when there are chemical changes you can make for yourself, such as this medication, that can help you.

In a very related sense, I was taking a (relatively) high dosage of a medication for myself that I needed for a time. I gained 30 pounds over about 2 years while on that stronger medication. I also tried to lose weight; but the cravings for food were becoming too much - far too much; and I had just come off the best shape of my life, where I actually had to force myself to eat *more* so that I would gain muscle. I just plain wasn't hungry. But this med I was on, yeah, I just ate more, regularly. It was easier - but trying to slow down my eating? The cravings were bad. Unlike any I'd ever had. And if I didn't eat, I was tired, angry, unfocused, a world of problems.

Now that I've reduced this medication (with the help of a psychiatrist), the cravings have effectively disappeared; and when they are present, it's very easy to overpower them and just move on. They don't cause my to be literally unable to sleep. I don't lose all my focus, it's just ... easier - easier enough that it's actually doable.

And a medication changed helped that.

Crutches are a very good thing when you can't walk or when it hurts too much to walk. It's okay to use a crutch. It is not a personal failing, it is a medical aide and an accessibility tool.

Please, I encourage you, give yourself some grace :)
Please don't hijack a discussion with irrelevant flamebait. This thread isn't an invitation for you to prosecute your political agenda.

It's incredibly draining and exhausting. As an audience member, you need to constantly be "on" to understand the show. Sometimes, maybe even often times, this is what you want. But when you don't then you can't, meaning there's no way to enjoy the show while also not committing to it. These are high-commitment shows.

Also everyone just forgets all the nuances when a new season come out 1 year later. Typically, this is fine, but since these shows really rely on those nuances you end up getting disconnected from the show.

Getting things done (GTD) has a notion of “waiting for”. Lots of people successfully follow GTDs structure methodologically.
More significant than the speed improvement in my opinion is the space saving.

The reason uv is fast is that it creates hard links from each of your virtual environments to a single shared cached copy of the dependencies (using copy-on-write in case you want to edit them).

This means that if you have 100 projects on your machine that all use PyTorch you still only have one copy of PyTorch!
what happens to those websocket connections when the API is updated or redeployed?

Very happy. Svelte is cool stuff. Love the sense of proportion the devs have when they make the inevitable tradeoffs.

This is a very big release indeed. What comes to my mind is that also Bootstrap slowed down releases at some point, and now there are cool kids on the block (e.g. Tailwind) to compete with. Hopefully the future is brighter.
It's not a "legal philosophy" that's how states work (i.e. it is their land). The state always controls all the land within its borders. "Ownership" is a tradeoff: Individuals get to do what they want (for the most part) with the land and also get protection by the state against crimes/disasters (e.g. fire) that occur within that property while the state gets tax revenue.

If you 100% truly owned your own land you'd be the monarch of your own state.

In this legal case the state is policing their water/fish on behalf of all the other property owners in the area as well as anyone that would benefit from said water/fish (downstream impacts, as it were).
You are torn on whether or not a state agent should be able to supercede constitutionally-granted inalienable rights because it may impede their duty?
Yes, people realize this. We've already had several waves of reaction - mostly settling on "the process of software engineering has always been about design, communication, and collaboration - the actual act of poking keys to enter code into a machine is just an unfortunate necessity for the Real Work"
Agreed though "it needs to be below 6th grade reading level" would essentially invalidate every contract/license/agreement ever entered into..

> The General Order we approved also forbade the use of Flock cameras for non-violent crimes.

What's the point of a surveillance system if you are not going to use it to solve property crimes? The biggest issues with liveability in a lot of "nice" US cities like SF are property crime and law enforcement choosing to go after "easy" white collar crime like traffic and parking violations instead of the blue collar crimes that affect safety and property.
"This will never happen without an amendment."

When did I ever argue that it should?

The main flaw with the funding match is that campaign spending is already very wasteful and we shouldn't be trying to match that waste with tax dollars.

But you could go read Davis and the other case history about the undue restrictions and how a candidates own speech is constrained by matching schemes.
I personally think this is the major reason their ratings are so low. My parents want to watch Ted Lasso, and I told them to subscribe and watch it. "We can't, we have a roku, and I'm not paying $200 for another box." Imagine millions doing this and you see the result.

The article says they're banned from launching any more credit cards unless they can 'demonstrate they are going to follow the law' (whatever that means).

This is really funny, because Goldman has been very public about how much they hate the Apple Card deal, and they have been and still are looking to unwind the deal or sell the portfolio, so something tells me this experiment in retail consumer finance is not something they're looking to replicate any time soon.
hey! sure, here's one of my lists

The writer here misunderstands how short-circuit evaluation is supposed to be used. The idea is that you should use SCE in a few, pretty standard, cases:

cheapFunction(...) || expensiveFunction(...) // saves us a few cylces
car = car || "bmw" // setting default values, common pattern
funcA(...) && funcB_WhichMightBreakWithoutFuncA(...) // func A implies func B
...
// probably a few other cases I don't remember

Using it to handle control flow (e.g. throwing exceptions, as a makeshift if-then, etc.) is a recipe for disaster.
I think that few (no?) people oppose vouchers on the theory that private schools provide an inferior education to public schools. They oppose them because most proposals would not (a) require private schools to accept the voucher as full tuition and fees and (b) require private schools to educate everyone regardless of disability, belief, etc.

As currently posed, the voucher is a subsidy to already wealthy people who can afford to supplement the voucher with extra $$ to pay for their children’s education.
