> Covid did cause massive disability. The colloquial term for it is Long Covid

I know a previously-healthy guy who got an early variant that went for his pancreas. He now has Type 1 diabetes, a condition one is normally born with and for which there is no cure, just chronic, expensive and time-consuming treatment.
Well, yeah

Any bets on when it gets renamed AIDDR? Only partly joking
Maybe as an inferior replacement. I don't see how it can be the opposite for stuff like gambling and perception issues.
With Bulma/Bootstrap you're also reusing classes but you just need a fracion of those compared to TW. I don't know the ratio but I would imagine it's something like 1:10.

And when using TW with SSR you're still sending all those extra classes per element.
> The best way to deal with a narcissist like Trump is to ignore him.

Not if you want something from the narcissist. Instead you chuff the narcissist up. It's gross, but we've seen them all do it reactively after he was elected in 2016, so why not be proactive this time? None of them (Big tech) are going to lose customers over it, so there's no risk.

> Only an idiot believes Trump's incessant lies and neither I, nor presumably Tim Cook, gives a rat's ass what idiots think of us.

Whatever his cognitive abilities, if elected president, he will have nearly absolute power over foreign trade policy. He could try to use it to exert leverage over the EU to weaken their antitrust enforcement.
The idea isn't really to make the encryption stronger or to widen the key. It's a classical case of trust - if one cipher is compromised, there are others to cover for you. Also, I wanted to learn the different ciphers, and speed wasn't a top priority.
Also I would guess that there is more healthcare, more options, more procedures, more drugs. Length of stays in hospitals might have shortened due to less invasive procedures, but if more procedures are done and there is not increase in staffing, time is spread over larger number of patients.
It's neither a solution nor a workaround, for the simple reason that it doesn't work either as a matter of law or in practice.

You began this thread with a deeply incorrect assertion about a federal law, then someone corrected you, then you asserted that the correction doesn't really matter, and now you're committing to ever more contorted logic to defend that initial incorrect assertion. I would very respectfully suggest that it's sometimes healthy to admit that a take was just bad. It's ok. We all have 'em. I'm sure you're a great dude. Just take the L.
Interesting, would love to know some details here. How much differ and how much the ROI of having to manufacture, bigger more featured vs continuing a mini version.

I always questioned that the mini did not sell because of this effect that was worse than their other options. Consumer mind is easy in those fields. If I offer you 3 versions and the other two had "more" but in reality are the same.

Why would I choose over the small one, the big one has more, I'm buying less.

I think this strategy killed the mini sales, not the value of the format.
No, the guy who killed Boeing was Jim McNerney, their CEO from 2005 to 2015. McNerney was the guy who started the 737 MAX program in 2011. He got an MBA from Harvard in 1975 and worked for GE from 1982 to 2001.
> the CEO of a non profit hospital isn’t taking home $1M/year while doctors and nursing are fighting for proper compensation and work life balance (including patient ratios).

In Houston, the renowned Texas Children's Hospital did layoffs — after paying millions to their CEO and other executives. FTA: "Over a seven-year period from 2016 – the earliest year of data published by the Internal Revenue Service – to 2022, the average pay for Texas Children’s 10 highest-paid leaders ballooned from $963,971 to nearly $2.2 million, an increase of 125%. (The latest tax filings do not reflect how much leaders at Texas Children’s earned this year, after the hospital reported major financial losses.)" [0]

The usual response defending such high compensation is something like, "We have to pay our execs so much because we're competing for talent with the for-profit hospitals." OK, one possible solution might be returning marginal income tax rates — across the board — to what they were in the 1950s. That would help neutralize the constant craving for more money as one of the main ways that execs judge their personal career success. "The top income tax rate reached above 90% from 1944 through 1963 ...." [1]

For inference, it often is. Though for most consumer parts the bigger concern is not having enough VRAM rather than the VRAM not being fast enough. Copying from system RAM to VRAM is far slower.
Thanks for elaborating further what we mean by "scaling".

Couldn't it be said that when organization acquire ranks, it is to solve coordination problems that arise with scale but that in this case, there isn't much that is solved by more organization ?

It means that new built nuclear power is even less suitable for modern grids given how extremely costly it is.

Nuclear power and renewables compete for the same slice of the grid. The cheapest most inflexible where all other power generation has to adapt to their demands. They are fundamentally incompatible.

This is a battle nuclear power loses and are forced into an increasingly marginalized position where it starts losing money hand over fist.
For a baby you have regularly scheduled appointments through the first year to make sure developmental milestones and for the correct immunization schedule.

The amount of bad and actually hazardous parenting advice I've gotten from nurses and PA's is staggering.

When we were discharged from the hospital, the pediatric nurse actually told us it was safe to feed him in the car seat on the drive home.
"With this new encoding scheme, GDDR7 can transmit “3 bits of information” per cycle, resulting in a 50% increase in data transmission compared to GDDR6 at the same clock speed."

Sounds pretty awesome. I would think that it's going to be much hard to achieve the same clock speeds.

the Duomo is a weird kind of gothic, most notably missing the tall proportions of most gothic cathedrals. I've never seen it described as scary, but it has its creepy details, like the statue depicting San Bartholomew after being skinned, wearing his own skin.
All good points. I intend to make it clearer: https://codeberg.org/ezcrypt/ezcrypt/issues/4
Have bacteria been witnesses to turn into more complex, totally-different bacteria? And then multi-celled organisms that have never been seen? The jumps that macro-evolution claims like they saw it yesterday are much more complex than bacteria regularly turning into multi-celled organisms. Add that to the list of changes we should be seeing all the time if millions of species evolved this way. Similarly, add it to the list of observations falsifying evolution that bacteria adapt rapidly but never become higher forms.

You heavily believe in what you have repeatedly not observed. After sample size hits hundreds of millions to billions, your confidence goes through the roof that this absolutely happened millions of times when you weren’t watching.

How is that science if hypotheses and validates theories are built on observed data? If anything, it sounds like a massive amount of faith in an imaginary model that’s the opposite of global observations.

This is why we say we (usually) don’t have as much faith as atheists or evolutionists. Many of us have seen multiple examples of answered prayers, miracles, or God speaking to us. What’s predicted keeps happening. Since Darwin, we’ve seen zero examples of bacteria, ants, chickens, or cats turning into other animals. So, you have faith and unrelenting faith at that.
Yep, discussions of capitalism as contrasted with socialism are largely pointless as all western countries operate different flavors of mixed economies. Keynes won. You have to have both— if you stray too far in either direction your economy topples.

But accepting "Have government involved in the economy, not too much. Mostly markets" means you have to actually know about the specific industry and surrounding economic factors and that makes discussions boring. It's way more fun to have Cage Match: Capitalism vs Socialism, this Saturday on pay-per-view.
> Companies could set the rates at a level that would generate the same amount of revenue.

How would you even begin to compute this though?

If you have 1 million users paying $15 a month in the subscription model then you're making $15 million (minus taxes, processing fees, etc - spherical cow, no wind resistance for the rest of these examples).

How would you even begin to know what to price a per-vice price across the board to match that with 1 million users?

One of the things I've noticed around here is that there are a lot of new automated car washes popping up. They have two ways you can pay - per wash and monthly subscription. The car wash always prefers that you pay a monthly subscription That keeps their income steady, means they don't have to send home workers by the middle of the day if there's not enough work for them, and on days when it's raining they're not losing money by staying open.
The article defines care "scarcity" rather narrowly, almost tautologically

> In any given moment, you can only really care deeply and individually for one person

Yes, but there are many moments in a day / one's life, and care is needed and appreciated at various levels of "deepness". Further, how much care (and what type) is needed depends enormously on what society has managed to scale with the right organizational patterns etc.

So in the end the question is: how much of this type of exclusive (and scarce) caring capacity does society really need? Mathematically, there are 8 billion exemplars of the species roaming the planet and 1:1 caring takes care (pun) of the 4 billion.
I think Taiwan is worth adding to the list of healthcare systems that folks study. I believe it may be similar to the Swiss system.

Everyone has national health insurance, but you also get to choose where to go, and some doctors also offer non-insured services that you can pay for out of pocket.

The result is universal coverage combined with a competitive market that drives prices down and encourages innovation.

I know this is just anecdata, but having held an insurance card there for a while, our family was always able to see our family doctor the same day we called. And the one or two times a specialist or emergency room was needed, there was minimal hassle.

I'm sure there are problems with it, too -- I just don't know what they are. As a customer/patient, it seemed to work far better than the American system I'm used to.

Travelling for Work, with Kids at Home (2019)
This is one of the main reasons why I avoid subscriptions like the plague. The overhead of keeping track of them is so much more work than its worth. The other reason is that I generally prefer to avoid fixed recurring expenses, particularly small ones.

> Thank goodness for one-time payment software+apps, and physical media!

I agree. I am glad there are still options that I consider reasonable.
Revised security measures at the National Gallery
As you say, that model is bad. Specifically, it assumes that the change from speed 1 to speed 2, and the change from speed 2 to speed 4, take the same amount of compute time to design. That is almost certainly false; if it were not, humans would have quickly gone faster than Moore's Law.
The ISOs managing grids cares about the GWs and expects batteries to optimize their utilization to create the largest value for the grid enabling them to balance supply and demand. Like how they expect coal plants to manage the size of their coal pile without having to be told how to do it.

This is what is necessary to manage supply and demand.

For studies on the energy balance and longer term grid strength the size is relevant. In the Californian case comprising ~12 GW the ratio is 1:4 between GW and GWh.

As can be seen from the Californian supply statistics this gets smeared out during the whole evening and morning to maximize the value provided.

A new batteries-included app framework for writing fast and tiny desktop apps in typescript.

Like electron but under the hood it uses bun and zig, and the system webview by default.

Like Tauri but you use typescript instead of rust.

batteries-included: a cli to build, code sign, bundle, create tiny 4KB diffs for updates, all you need is S3 or similar to host the artifacts.

Honestly sounds like that's Conway's law, but in reverse. Instead of a project's setup mirroring it's organization, the organization mirrors what they see as the ideal project setup. That's something that I wish more teams were willing to recognize as the best approach; Conway's law isn't necessarily something to be worked around, it's a tool.
Everything in Pollen is written in Racket, so in theory you could do much more advanced stuff inside your documents than with Latex. For example, you could have a ◊tweet{} element that, given an URL, would go and fetch that tweet and embed it inside your document using whatever quoting privimitives your presentation layer (HTML, Markdown, etc) allows you.

You can also use Pollen to write Latex! Before Quad (https://docs.racket-lang.org/quad/), a quick way to get a PDF output of your Pollen document would be to output Latex from Pollen, then use the resulting document to generate your PDF.
> social isolation is becoming a huge problem

It is interesting that you say it is becoming a problem. Why was it not a problem in a past?

> It's a smaller town

Towns are usually considered urban. I was imagining actual, by definition, rural. Living in a small town (~2,000 people) right now, I'd say it has less of a social community that the rural areas I've lived in previously. Still nothing that should leave you feeling isolated, but there is certainly less of a "automatically friends with everyone" vibe. Granted, my rural experience is strictly in agricultural areas where everyone are farmers, which gives common ground on which to "automatically" become friends. If nothing else, you can talk about farming.

Is that the problem with the suburbs? That the people there can't find common ground on which to build friendships?
Decrease transperancy towards non programmers. (I am not joking)

I blame many of the problems with modern dev practiceses on unilateral transperancy that enables micromanagement and non programmers that tell programmers what to do in too great of a detail.
OP is correct in my anecdotal experience. I live in a large urban area and wait time for PCP is several months out. Even longer for Women's health as I hear from my partner.

I don't remember it being this bad in the past. Perhaps things have changed in the several years since those publications were published.
What an annoying article to read. "The AI workload of AI in a digital AI world that the AI world AI when it AIs. Also the bandwidth is higher. AaaaaaaaaIiiiiiiiiiii".

90% of the article is just finding new ways to integrate "AI" into a purely fluff sentence.
Azure DevOps: some changes are silently hidden during code review
Do you expect your code review to show all changes, or is it ok if some are silently hidden?

Azure Devops will silently hide some of the edits, and the feedback I got was that this "is not a bug". I don't think it is reasonable to expect devs to pull changes and do their own diff. My feeling is that the main advantage of a PR is viewing those changes.
My take on it is that ACA set up the insurance companies as essentially a cost-plus system. I forget the actual name for it in the ACA, but the general idea is that insurance needs to spend at least 80% of the premiums on health care. Sounds good at first pass, but there's also no limit to costs in the ACA. So the way an insurance company makes more money is to pay more for service. And the providers are happy to comply. Costs go up, insurance explicitly doesn't fight costs, so that premiums go up and they keep 20% of a bigger pie now.

I've essentially stepped out of the system. I get the cheapest, biggest deductible policy through my employer to cover a big emergency. But for my personal care, I do Direct Primary Care where I pay my doc $175/mo for my family of 4 and any time I need him, he's there "for free" no office visit fees, etc.

If I'm sick, I can always get same-day telehealth or next day in-office visits. For routine care, I may have to book out a week or so. He's never rushed because his incentive is consult me to keep me healthy so that I _don't_ need to see him. His incentives are not to keep me coming back for more visits.

During my last routine yearly visit, we had a hour long conversation about all the little nagging things that were happening has I get older, and we made a good plan on what to do.

I love this model and I could see it scaling like this:

Rather than forcing (individual mandate) ACA-specified insurance purchases, you are "forced" to put that cost into a HSA-like account (government supplemented for if you can't afford it), and then use the HSA to buy the insurance and/or DPC memberships you want and work for you. That would put downward pressure on price since you're making the decisions not the insurance/government. And you adds competition on service since you choose your providers.
6-10 platforms vying for dominance/relevance, all of which were fighting to define something new.

we're gilding a (tired) duopolistic lily with 48MP cameras and "AI".
Nope. Land is important because everything rest on it. Even radio spectrum and orbitals can be regarded as a form of 'land'.

Georgism doesn't exist in a vacuum. It wasn't like they were formulated during when the time when wealth 'meant' land. It was during the industrial revolution, possibly as a response to the problems they see in their society, problems we're still dealing with today.

No longer it merely meant land where productive yield of vegetable garden goes. Anything that capital sits on is land. That includes your factories and your datacenter. Yes, that include renting land on someone else. That's land policy.

Housing? Land policy. Pollution? Land policy. Transportation? Land policy. Can't afford to live? Likely your biggest ticket items include transportation and housing. Land is more important than ever.

Now, what does this have to do with AI? I would caution against thinking money or capital to be irrelevant or making any definitive prediction about the impact of AI or when or how they will come.

Edit: I see that you added stuff, but you have a narrow conception of land policy.

> a baby you have regularly scheduled appointments through the first year to make sure developmental milestones and for the correct immunization schedule

Sure. None of this requires a doctor, though.

> pediatric nurse actually told us it was safe to feed him in the car seat on the drive home

This is bad advice. But I'm failing to find studies that quantify the risk. You're correct that they shouldn't have said this. But I'm not convinced no doctor would advise similarly.

If everyone wants their kid to be seen by a doctor, we either need to lower the standards of doctor or normalise perfectly-well kids being seen by NPs. (That or a higher billing code if a patient demands a doctor for routine care.)
While I agree the enhancement is significant, the title of this post makes it seem more like an advertisement for Rust than an optimization article. If you rewrite js code into a native language, be it Rust or C, of course it's gonna be faster and use less resources.
"The high ratios of phospholipid to cholesterol and bile acid to cholesterol in their gallbladder bile explain the extreme rarity of cholesterol gallstones. All these characteristics may reflect a long-term biologic adaptation of the tribe."

With a typical transformer and a GPU the batch size that saturates the compute is at least hundreds. Otherwise (including typical size of 1 for local inference) you're memory bound.

Sounds like a GNU/Linux phone would fit your use case better.
The problem is deeper. The entire structure of the industry makes no sense. Doctors need 12 years of training after high school (the first 4 years of which is useless). Then they end up doing a job where 95% of the work is trivial and could be done by almost anyone with a bit of training.

I know a guy training to do lasik surgery. Turns out it's easy. You could easily train a lasik tech to do it, but that's not allowed. We require it to be done by a doctor making $500k a year who has 12 years of higher education, only 1 year of which is focused on lasik surgery. But we insist on continuing this overly broad training when most modern doctors only practice in a single specialized area. It's like if we required the guy at the oil change place to have a PhD in mechanical engineering. Of course it's going to cost a fortune.
FSF vs OSI drama inbound? While FSF always had the "crazy uncle" vibe, they at least have consistent values. OSI seems to be captured by the big players.
