I think this gets to part of the issue at UHC. People are filing claims, thinking it is covered, but it gets denied.

I have read anecdotal reports that people working in government roles with UHC insurance have switched to identical plans in the private sector and got much worse denial rates with UHC plans offering the same coverage.

This fuels a completely speculative view that UHC might shift the 85% required healthcare costs towards favoring places where they may gain more market share and really shafting hard in other parts of the market. They can shit-can something like 15% of premiums so unequal allocation of that could lead disproportionately to some very pissed off people, even working within a system where profit is bounded by accepted claims. All of this would fit in well with a profit optimization strategy.

I think there's a misunderstanding here, my fault for not being clearer. I think I should have used the phrase 'when the body enters a state of ketosis' i.e. the state you get to when fasting when your body starts burning core fat. I believe the word ketogenic refers to the type of meat heavy diet. Thanks for those links, the fact that eating a lot of meat can promote tumor metastasis does not surprise me.

In Austria, Haider took over the FPÖ in 1986. In 1999, when Russia was completely weak and had other priorities, the FPÖ already had 26% nationally.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_Party_of_Austria

In Germany the AfD rose to around 10% after Merkel let in millions of refugees in 2015. It had nothing to do with Russia at all. It is currently polling around 18% because the economy is bad and people are tired of U.S. subservience and want Germany to make its own decisions.

The concept that right wing parties are somehow beneficial to Russia in the long run is absurd to the extreme.

In Ukraine, literally the Bandera supporters are the best fighters and the most anti-Russian. When in history has it ever been beneficial for a country to support nationalism in an enemy country. It does not make any sense.

This whole thing is just a narrative of the forces who want to keep down "EU-first" movements.
What is interesting is that instead of doing this in the google anti trust case they want google to give up chrome and stop developing browser technology full stop, so basically moving in the direction of killing the open web and replacing it with an unfree, weaponized locked in app store duopoly with laws against using browsers.
Because it's legal. And what they did now is not legal.

They don't even have may proof that anything that happened in the first round campaign was illegal. The CCR is not even qualified to rule on the facts, on the legality of anything that happened.

So if nothing illegal is proven by any court to have happened, if there isn't even enough evidence to get a tmeporary arrest warrant in his name in a regular court of law, how can we annul the whole electoral process? The costs alone should require a much higher level of justification.

The court has not even ruled that he is not allowed to participate in the re-made elections.

I was mortified that he might win, don't get me wrong. My entire family was going to vote for Lasconi, even those that didn't really like her, just to make sure this idiot madman didn't win. But that doesn't make this decision be any closer to the rule of law.

It’s an interesting question whether that could be fixed. I think the answer is Yes. If the author didn’t do any scrambling, and just displayed UUIDs in numeric order, then it’s trivial to enumerate search results in order. Likewise, if you do something like adding a constant mod 16 to each hex digit, you could do the same thing when you generate UUIDs matching a substring. So the question becomes whether you could find something like that that gives a sufficiently convincing illusion of entropy but is still reversibile when you hold a subset of the digits constant. And it seems like it should be.
I feel like it's at the point where I'm not too sure how these rankings impact the my choice of LLM. Every time a new model tops the charts, I'll try them for a bit and go back to claude-3.5-sonnet. Both for coding and day to day questions.

I don't know if I'm just getting used to the claude style of response, or the orangy UI that I kind of find cozy, but I think we need better ways to convey the difference between models.

His electoral campaign posts weren’t marked as electoral material. As a voter I thought they are not paid but true opinions of journalists/ influencers that I respect. It turns out that they were actually paid and not marked properly. So he broke the rules. Now I am going to change my vote.
A lot of the things that we buy in Europe are already manufactured cheaply in China with different standards etc. We are moving a lot of manufacturing back to Europe, mostly in the eastern part of it. That part is still 'cheap' aka they can put the made in eu logo on the box, pay employees eastern Europe prices and ask buyers western Europe prices.

The same thing with the eu car companies... they even took the money from the states where they had factories (Germany, Belgium, France) which greatly subsidized them, increased their profits and margins then moved to the next EU state and beyond.
The number is large because they are a large entity with 350k employees and something like 400B revenue. They're also a public company with all the financial obligations and market expectations that come along with that.
> calling people names won't change the fact that his life-long diet caused his cancer and killed him.

Steve Jobs was not a life-long fruitarian. He dabbled in all sorts of different diets. According to Walter Isaacson’s biography he seems to have generally lived as a pescatarian. Interestingly enough that diet is considered one of the healthier ones.

Obviously Steve Jobs should not have delayed his surgery. I understand that people are angry that a man with his means was still able to get a transplant and all the medical care that is unavailable for the rest of us. I understand. However to assume that his disease (and death) was the result of a diet choice when there is no credible evidence for it seems rather absurd.
Right. The main issue with HFCS is that it's really cheap so it gets added to a lot of things that wouldn't normally contain sugar or it is added in greater amounts than other sugars.
SPA hate is mainly because there are so many broken (navigation etc) SPAs that would have been much better as regular websites.

This comment is a perfect example of what the origin of complete nonsense with sticking power looks like on the internet: a couple insults and denigrations, a refutal without substantiation, and a confident suggestion for one to do their own research (of course without providing a reference study from a journal of consideration) and calling it a day.

Fructose from whole fruits is processed and metabolized differently. Indeed fructose trapped inside fiber will take some time to be digested, and a sharp blood spike is prevented. Sugar from fruits is not bad in the way sugar from soda is bad.

Prior to retirement, I cut back to 32 hrs/week at 80% pay (well, closer to 85% because I kept my full health). I backfilled the pay cut by beginning a small 401k withdrawl.

Don't worry, I already checked your account and there wasn't anything there to take.
DMY dates don't make sense. The units are from smallest to largest, but the string within each unit is still written from biggest to largest.

Furthermore, if DMY makes sense, then you could argue that SS:MM:HH or MM:HH has a valid use case. (It does not.)

Hence, ISO 8601 is the one true date format, assuming you still believe in writing numbers in big endian.

If you want, you can argue for numbers being written in little endian. For example, the year "two thousand twenty-four" could be written as 4202, and maybe pronounced as four twenty thousand-two. In that case, go ahead and write dates as SS:MM:HH DD/MM/YYYY; it is UTC 61:45:12 60/21/4202.

I don't know about that, but there does appear to be a tradeoff between nutrition and fertility. When you eat less, you're less fertile. When you're less fertile, you live longer. A lot of what appears to allow us to live longer is lower rates of cancer, but the data I've seen there isn't rock solid and it isn't something I've dug deeply into. I only mention it because it's certainly studied and a question worth pursuing, with very interesting papers available if you look.

Something I read recently was about eunuchs living something like 25% longer than intact counterparts. However, the data was limited (15 each of eunuchs and intact as I recall). There were very few confounding factors, however. Really interesting stuff.
Great bit of history.

The nugget I hadn’t heard before is how the 386 enabling DOS extenders really threw the whole product strategy for a loop.

I wonder if that was a happy side effect of Intel’s other goals, or if there was design intention to enable DOS to break the 640K barrier.

Before the ISO standard existed, Tesla had their own implementation of plug and charge. They've since added support for ISO 15118, allowing non-Teslas to charge at supercharging stations without using the Tesla app.[1]

The issue is that the ISO standard relies on TLS certificates, but manufacturers and charging networks have not yet agreed upon a standard set of CAs. Tesla wants to update the standard to remove the TLS requirement, which would improve reliability and time to start charging. But signed metering receipts are broken in the existing standard, so that needs to be fixed before the TLS requirement can be removed.

Unfortunately, the lost income is marginal. The risk for Tesla/Rivian, or even a gas station, is more existential.

Fatty liver here as well. Not a big consumer of sugar or alcohol though so I suspect something else is the cause. My liver doc ordered a couple dozen obscure blood tests to see if we can find the cause. I take a lot of supplements and vitamins, but the doc didn't see anything that should have caused it. My parents and siblings, despite being more obese and consuming more sugar, also do not have it.

Depends what your substrate is. Inkjet still works better for things like vinyl, photo paper, and heat-sensitive stuff. I'm not sure you can do borderless printing on a laser printer, either. For everyday office and personal print jobs, it's hard to beat the convenience and relative reliability of a laser printer, but inkjets still have their (niche) place in the world.

Hi! Author of Eg-walker & ShareJS here, both of which are referenced by this post.

You write this article like you're disagreeing with me - but I agree completely with what you've said. I've been saying so on HN for years. (Eg, in this comment from 6 years ago[1].)

The way I think about it, the realtime collaborative tools we use today make a lot of sense when everyone is online & editing together. But when users edit content offline, or in long lived branches, you probably want the option to add conflict markers & do manual review when merging. (Especially for code.)

Luckily, algorithms like egwalker have access to all the information they need to do that. We store character-by-character editing traces from all users. And we store when all changes happened (in causal order, like a git DAG). This is far more information than git has. So it should be very possible to build a CRDT which uses this information to detects & mark conflict ranges when branches are merged. Then we can allow users to manually resolve conflicts.

Algorithmically, this is an interesting problem but it should be quite solvable. Just, for some reason, nobody has worked on this yet. So, thanks for writing this post and bringing more attention to this problem!

If anyone is interested in making a unique and valuable contribution to the field, I'd love to see some work on this. Its an important piece thats missing in the CRDT ecosystem - simply because (as far as I know) nobody has tried to solve it yet. At least not for text editing.

Reface DX owners, mostly, because that's the only modern FM synth with speakers.

I usually use the ePiano patch, which I modify to sound louder; it blends perfectly with the guitar.

>And I don't think it's for jamming with friends with acoustic guitars either

Then you think incorrectly. It's a very versatile instrument, which is for anything that people use it for.

Pigeonholing it as either a home studio or stage instrument is precisely what makes Reface DX such an underrated instrument.

Ordos new town is still a ghost town, at least until coal comes back. Tianjin can be counted on to always have a couple of ghost districts going on, not to mention the tallest ghost skyscraper in the world (Golden Finance 117). If you are into touring China, you can just go to see for yourself, but I don't recommend going to Ordos just to check out a ghost district.
Don't feel bad. It's good for the planet and society to reduce the population somewhat. It can't keep growing forever. All the major problems we have are a result of it. Climate change, housing shortage, resource conflicts etc.

The demographic problems during a decline are only temporary.

If the world had only 1 billion people it would be a lot easier. The whole idea that humanity would go extinct is ridiculous. And humanity is still growing anyway due to the many countries that don't have falling birth rates.

There's always people wanting to have kids. This is just society adjusting itself to the current overpopulation.

Your quote is way out of context.

"See, even in NATO, which the Americans built with their own hands, which is their thing, have you seen that? The NATO parliamentarians declare that the Multilateral Force is nothing but a big joke. The truth is that the Americans will end up being hated by everyone. Even by their most unconditional allies. The Multilateral Force would be one more trick. All the tricks that the Americans imagine are denied by events. It is more and more true. Look at their so-called détente."

I’m not sure why the statistic should be considered interesting.

Like what is the amount of housed population that come to sf from another California city or out of state?

SF is an economic driver of the USA. It will attract people from all over. Sometimes those people will become homeless.

In fact we should expect people in a poor economic situation to move to where the jobs are (ie, sf). That’s the system working. It would be weird that someone struggling with lack of work should stay put and just suffer.

I don’t think ARC has particularly advanced the research. The approaches that are successful were developed elsewhere and then applied to ARC. Happy to be shown somewhere this is not the case.

In the case of TTT, I wouldn’t really describe that as a ‘new AGI reasoning approach’. People have been fine tuning deep learning models on specific tasks for a long time.

The fundamental instinct driving the creation of ARC - that ‘deep learning cannot do system 2 thinking’, is under threat of being proven wrong very soon. Attempts to define the approaches that are working as somehow not ‘traditional deep learning’ really seem like shifting the goal posts.
