Do Russia and China have laws preventing their governments from interfering in other countries’ elections? If this all happened online, I’m pretty sure Romanian laws don’t apply.
My point exactly is not that a law was broken, but a crime was committed!
I'm sure a lot of effort went into this, but I would rather raw dog my database layer with node-postgres/postgres.js and zod. The decorator heavy implementation is visually very busy. Also, I would not consider any SQL toolkit for serious use unless it comes with a sufficiently competent code generation accompaniment.
It would be naive to think that it will be the same. This one has too much media attention.
I checked and you're right - I could find nothing about Kyiv Insider on Wikipedia.

Clearly the Western conspiracy extends further than anyone realized... or something.
Maybe there will. But literally everything has fraud, and not every other industry is worth this kind of money, so it seems naïve to attribute it all to fraud.
Also depends on the friction to move. I admittedly have not really started using AI in my work, so I don't know. Is it easy to replace GPT with Claude or do I have to reconfigure a bunch of integration and learn new usage?
No, I disagree. We have a system of laws and courts to decide what is criminal.

People should not kill law abiding citizens they disagree with because everyone has a different opinion.
About the "nursing shortage" in the UK: The solution is simple, pay fair salaries from the NHS. This would probably required higher taxes to better fund the NHS, but good luck with that in the current UK political environment. Instead, the UK has decided to pay poor nursing salaries and import cheap labour from poor countries. Is this a win? I doubt it.

If we assume a fantastical world without political lobbying that’s only limited by the depths of one’s pockets then it makes sense to talk about prosecuting wealthy corporate executives.

If we’re in a world with such lobbying... do you see why prosecution might fail despite its merits?

If everyone has the same terms and roughly equivalent models, enterprises will continue choosing Microsoft and Amazon.
In terms of being able to affect political change, yes. If the wealthy were targeted in assassinations using firearms, the 2nd amendment would mean very little. When the political will of the country is reflected in a small group of people it becomes increasingly possible to affect politics by affecting that group.
And by then you have several people on the team who have thought the wrong way is the right way for months, never mind your support team probably giving end users bad information.

I am sure the response and resources will be exactly the same, and if he is caught the DA will file the same charges with the same recommendations and the Judge will apply the same standards.

Just like the man who attacked Paul Pelosi in San Fransisco had the same standards applied to him.

I'm really curious to see new DX for the problem of "type-safe queries with intellisense". Litdb provides SQL-like syntax, but it feels like knowing actual SQL should be enough.

If the problem is seen as an editor or build-time problem, rather than a library one, you don't have to learn anything new, and you can save the weight in your dependencies.

A fusion of ts-safeql [0] and postgres_lsp [1] is the closest I've seen to solving this as an editor/build problem.

Hawk Tuah Girl's Crypto Team Short on Answers After Disastrous Meme Coin Bust
I hate it because when I take it, instead of UI programming I now have to satisfy some absurd ideas about how functional async meta higher effect bullshit should work. All I need is to process events and update MY model (not some convoluted async representation of it smeared across visual elements and their lifetimes), from which something would update control values and text blocks. That's not literally all I need, obviously, but I don't need react nonsense in my way. In case anyone curious what I'm using, see mithril.js.

Also react uses (or promotes) web-hostile anti-features like document level event handling and virtual scrolling, which are PITA from a devtools tinkerer perspective.

useActionState: is a new hook to order Actions inside of a Transition with access to the state of the action, and the pending state. It accepts a reducer that can call Actions, and the initial state used for first render. It also accepts an optional string that is used if the action is passed to a form action prop to support progressive enhancement in forms.

Delusional gobbledygook.
I'm honestly not sure if I should attribute this comment to disingenuity, ignorance or just bad faith.

> pushing back on anesthesiology pay on the East Coast.

Not even close. BCBS was just pushing extra charges onto patients.

> insurers working to make surgeries cost less

This is laughably ill-informed, I don't know where to begin. The only thing insurers are doing is increasing the gap between what they collect and what they have to pay out. They do this by denying claims. Making the service cheaper has nothing to do with it.

> where medical staff are paid 2-3x more than they are in other countries

Because medical school is so expensive. Also, doctors spend 3-8 years working for minimum wage (ie medical residency) and the cost of billing and administration is enormous. One study showed a primary care doctor spent $99,000 a year on billing and roughly 25% of ER income spent on the same [1].

The US spends the most per capita on healthcare than any other OECD country, by about 50% (Switzerland is #2) [2] for less coverage, worse outcomes and lower life expectancy.

Medicare spends almost all (~98.5%) of its funds on patient care and ~1.5% on admin, compared to 15-25% on admin for private insurers (including Medicare Advantage).

It amazes me how concifently wrong and ignorant about a subject can be while having such strong opinions.

Good when it works, but what happens when it fails?
> I'd much rather see that worked through legislative means than through targeted assassinations..

I believe the voters and their politicians have tried, repeatedly. Usually healthcare organizations inject just enough turbulence into the legislative process such that legislative bills don't lead to any kind of reforms. Meanwhile, average life expectancy in the US is still falling.
Writers love the em-dash though. It's a thing.

Question is if OpenAI is actually making money at $200/month.
The problem isn't just the moderators, it's the administration and rules of Reddit itself.

Reddit has a rule about not celebrating the death of someone, which they very selectively enforce.

They allow people to cheer the death of the likes of Adolf Hitler or Muammar_Gaddafi and some random soldier in the Ukraine-Russia war, but they're quite picky about other stuff.

I'm sure they'd clamp down more on this one if they could but the people have spoken and there are simply too many people celebrating this death.

I also really don't get the apparent hate for react, usually from people who haven't used it all that much.

I've interacted with a not insignificant number of people who seem to hold this opinion. Usually their arguments boil down to one of:

* Frontend engineering is always chasing the next shiny thing, and react is one of them. There's probably some truth to this historically, but react has been a thing since 2013, and pretty 'mainstream' since 2015 or so.

* Frameworks and libraries add 'complexity'. I almost never hear anything specific when I ask about what complexity they're referring to. IMO if you work on a non trivial application without a framework, you'll just end up inventing your own poorly maintained, poorly tested and poorly documented framework. This might be fine for a weekend project, but rarely something you should do at a company.

* People also often complain about the compilation/bundling step. This might've been harder to manage historically, but now with battle tested frameworks like expo, nextjs, meteor etc, there are very few reasons to write a webpack configuration or build pipeline by hand.
> there was a story the other day about an insurance provider not continuing anesthesia in surgeries if they (the surgery) takes too long and the patient didn't pay up.

Health "insurance" companies in the US are not actually, primarily insurers. For the most part, they are not in the business of insuring rare events. Maybe they were primarily in the insurance business at some point in the past, but today they are mainly in the business of entrenching themselves in the middle of all interactions between patients, doctors, and hospitals, and extracting rents from all of them. Health "insurance" companies have become extractive businesses that produce nothing of evident value except unpleasant paperwork, and extract an economic rent for it, to the detriment of everyone else. I call them "paperwork-shuffling processors."

I don't think the shooter could get a fair trial in the US because I'm not sure they could find a jury to convict them.

yeah, blood in the street and mass death and destruction. Everyone killing everyone.
You have no idea. There certainly could be a breakthrough tomorrow that sets off AGI. Researchers across the board have been sounding the alarm bells for years now. There’s not much we can do at this point.

My only hope is that when AGI happens I can fire off an ‘I told you so’ comment before it kills us all.
Interesting that we consume more services and have less doctors. I wonder if doctors respond to incentives.
Indeed. It seems we're just not meant to know the truth.
You’ve got the answer right there. It should be nationalized. And a major reason it will never be nationalized is because of lobbying by health insurance corporations.
> you fire up Xcode and you are up and ready to build the thing you intend to. No tooling setup

> no intermediate steps to transpile the code

Sorry, but how is Xcode not "tooling"? And how is there no compilation step?

It should be obvious to us all that the frontend world needs more stable and reliable tooling. But pretending that native or mobile apps somehow don't need tooling is not a serious position.

> I simply work with DOM directly

Do you care to show us any apps that you've built with this approach?

So much of this debate is people talking past each other about what they need. Some people are building a glorified blog CMS, and jQuery is fine. Some people are building Figma, and think the former camp are insane for suggesting jQuery is fine.

The web is the best application delivery platform we currently have, so people will ship apps on it whether or not that's what Tim Berners-Lee thought they should be doing.

> Because what you are describing is literally anarchy. It’s antithetical to our foundational principles as a society.

A little anarchy now and then may not be a bad thing if it upsets the exisitng power structure. And the founding principles do not imply that the current society is what the founding principles were meant to imply.

> I don’t know what the effect would be, why are you so confident you do?

I am not completely confident but it's a reasonable assumption.

> Do you really wonder? Do you really, honestly not know the difference? I find that very hard to believe.

Of course there is a difference, because they are different situations. But I don't think there is a moral difference.

I don't think it's fair to dismiss the OIT hypothesis as a Hindu nationalist thing. I wrote some more about it in a comment on this article, but it actually just seems like the most likely explanation given the evidence.

Arguing the archeology, genetics, and (grudgingly, it's barely a science) linguistics is totally fair but I'd like to see more open-minded debate on the data.

The Mitanni (1500 BCE) and the Tarim Basin mummies partially Indian DNA are important points to address, but the Sarasvati river dating has to force a dramatic re-think of how Indo-European languages spread.
Some guesses:

- People really like Result structures

- People who wrote the API believe in the "operational issues and business issues should not be comingled" philosophy (so this function might raise on a connection error, but it _won't_ raise when there's simply an error like a name conflict)

- People who wrote the example write Too Much(TM) Go

If you're able to replace CMake I'm curious. I don't hate it but I'll admit it's pretty clunky. Is your project open source?
I played around with parsing and inferring SQL on a type level. Simple stuff works, but as soon as you have a DB-specific dialect, it becomes hard. Parsing is already hard enough, but type inference on a type level is just not maintainable on the long run.

I dunno, I kinda like it. The standard bearer in an army is sorta seen as a brave position… but really, it is also one of prestige, possibly political advantage, and the other units in your cohort might actually prioritize defending you.
It's not fundamental. We know how to make cars. Other companies are also adding sensors to their existing cars.

Waymo is partnering with existing car companies and those have a lot more production capacity than Tesla.

I had also hoped you Teslabros would chill with the Tesla hype when Model 3 was supposed to cost 35k but the cheapest model is about 45k, the cheapest Cybertruck was supposed to also be about 35k but instead it's about 100k, the Semi isn't doing much, the Roadster is still vaporware, FSD is nowhere near FSD...

The people they decline healthcare to are people. Are you not an inhumane executioner denying life saving procedures based on 10 sec check and some AI data?

Sure, I don't condone it and the system must be fixed instead, but 'they are still people' seems not good. A lot of very evil people in history and today are also people.
Anthem proposed to apply the precise guidelines Medicare uses to pay for anesthesiology, including references to those CMS guidelines. Billing for anesthesiology has been a hot button issue: the search you want is [anesthesia surprise billing]. Anesthesiology is one of the highest-paid specialties in American medicine.

You cannot reasonably support Medicare and claim that Anthem was doing something unconscionable, because Anthem was adopting Medicare's own policies.

Medicare's admin cost ratio is a function of who it covers. Somewhere in the comment history on HN, there's a short writeup I did of how the math works out if you extend Medicare to the whole population; the admin overhead, for obvious reasons, shoots up --- people pay the same amount of money but require far fewer services, reversing the "advantage" Medicare has in the metric currently.
Yes, we pay more per-capita for our public healthcare system than some countries do for universal coverage, but we don’t cover everyone. Just for the public parts.

Once you actually tally up how many people are having their healthcare paid for by public dollars—local, state, and federal workers plus retired; the military, active and retired; Medicare (old people); Medicaid (poor and disabled); CHIP (poor kids); the families of some of those categories; et c—it’s really not the case that moving to entirely public-funded would even be as big a leap as one might suppose. A whole lot of people already have government-funded healthcare.

What we really lack, that every single other OECD state I’ve looked at has as a feature of their healthcare systems, is more-aggressive price controls, either set directly or via partial or complete monopsony. We’ve sniffed around at it, but never taken a full bite.
> I now have to satisfy some absurd ideas about how functional async meta higher effect bullshit should work. All I need is to process events and update MY model (not some convoluted async representation of it smeared across visual elements and their lifetimes), from which something would update control values and text blocks

Could you elaborate on this? I'm not sure what an "async meta higher effect" is.

Reading in between the lines though, I suspect you're talking about state management. You might benefit from one of many state management solutions out there - redux, mobx, legend-state etc. Keeping and passing around local state spread out across lots of components can get unwieldy pretty quickly.
> Maybe health insurance is not the right approach to mental problems, and maybe no insurance is. We need some other way. I don't know that way.

Insurance is the method of paying for healthcare. We have insurance because healthcare is expensive. So insurance wouldn’t be necessary if we would lower costs by providing universal healthcare like modern countries.

You’re touching on the right idea:

Mental healthcare should be preventative not something applied after we discover an illness.

Changing any of it starts with educating people foremost so they can empower themselves.
Why on earth is anyone whining about the processes behind making an Internet Change Request, aka RFC?

I once spent around 18 months to two years getting a corporation to use DHCP properly (ie stop registering all devices MAC addresses for static leases) and I consider that a quick win.

RFCs deal with the entire internets and should require quite a lot of oversight. Three and a half years for a BGP change is a breathtakingly fast change and frankly reckless!

Germany is much richer than Russia because their economy adds much more value to raw inputs. Their industry produces much more refined, valuable goods. For example, before the idiotic invasion of Ukraine, Germany imported huge amounts of Russian gas, that was used by industry to created refined, valuable goods.

Also, it is weird that you chose to comment about the German military. First, due to WW2 era agreements, they are severely limited in how they can deploy their military. Japan is similar. Also, Germany spent 50B EUR last year on their military, and that is set to rise by another 10-20B EUR this year with some extra, one-off spending. These are not small numbers!
