You don’t see the difference between going after the Sackler family for underplaying their part in the opioid crisis and still being in favor of vaccines?

Or is it that you don’t see going after gouging American consumers for the same drugs that other countries get a lot cheaper?

The first Covid vaccine wasn’t approved until December 11, 2020 after Trump had lost the election and wasn’t available widely until March or April of 2021.

This is no accident. It’s the GOP’s reward for consistent efforts to roll back most of the progress done since The New Deal era. Nancy MacLean’s book Democracy in Chains explains it splendidly.
Receptor downregulation plays a key role in maintaining homeostasis within normal brain function, so attempting to intefere with that process is playing a dangerous game, however it is in theory possible, since the effects of receptor activation are separate from the downregulation process, though they are linked.

When a neuron's receptors get strongly activated, that neuron can withdraw receptors from its surface into the interior of the cell (a process call internalisation), and from there either digest the receptors (downregulation) or move the receptors back to the surface of the cell where they resume their typical function (resensitisation). Those processes are potential targets for a tolerance-mitigating drug.

The tricky part is that they are very fundamental processes across all neurons and it would be very hard to target, say, dopaminergic receptors in the nucleus accumbens to ventral tegmental area (the "reward circuit") without also affecting neurons across the entire brain.

The best cure for tolerance is taking a break :) easier said than done, I know.

Jonathan is very knowledgeable and is usually right. But in this specific instance, everything points out that this is indeed a component of a rocket.

The eyewitnesses describe that the object fell with a high velocity, with a loud noise, and was hot when it landed.

The better angles in the video [1] show molten metal on the outside, and a typical aerospace bolt pattern with carefully machined pockets around the bolts.

This kind of construction is typical in rockets, for example at the top and the bottom flanges of some stages of the Indian PSLV rocket [2]

They are always free to go back to their home countries.

Neither the US, nor their employer, is obligated to guarantee them anything more than the circumstances and conditions that the visa holders agreed to in the first place. The circumstances and conditions that the holders agreed to because they decided, voluntarily, that they would be better off in the US than in their home countries.

This is such a strange statement. He leads a team at The University of Alabama which has been given a grant by the National Science Foundation. He is not a sole inventor working by his own funding in his private time. The University of Alabama has also filed a patent application - so why wouldn't any news article mention the university ?
As a South Korean, I can ensure you that you won't find a single South Korean online who's upset that our country is "robbed" of the chance to give Kwon a slap in the wrist. When it was announced a while ago that Kwon was coming the South Korea, the disappointment was palpable.

Unfortunately South Korea is unreasonable lenient on financial crimes, Koreans all know it, and Kwon himself knows it. That's why he's been fighting to get extradited to Korea instead of the US.

Yes, the article is thin on facts. No mention of the frequency that they use, and how they measure the glucose level, which I'm guessing is some sort of spectral response.

Your optimism about how secure network-connected devices are against e.g. being added to a bot net in the status quo seems misplaced.

I agree with your concern not just for the future but for today. Something like TPMs could help attest that that example TV is running the software you think it is.

Of course, that would require manufacturers to care about security for their customers, which they currently don't. And the average person doesn't care enough, so the only way to change this is legislation/regulation.

I think the bigger idea behind this research, which was not mentioned, is the fact that the pointing of the the multiple beams directed by the transducer can not only be used to heat up a specific point inside the body (which in their example was an "ink" that was used for creating 3D structures well below the tissue), but the fact that this could be used for things like removal of plaques, blockages, destruction of fat/lipid cells in vivo... So things like stents and angioplasty's which are currently used to open up clogged arteries in cardiac patients to prevent heart attacks, could be done in vivo, the same way they are describing in the article, but without the need to use an "ink"... So this technology definitely has multiple uses. It could also be used to target plaques in brain tissue embedded deep in the brain to directly remove amyloid plaques to treat dementia, depression, etc patients...Obviously also used to target tumor cells anywhere inside the body without using chemotherapy/radiation.
So US putting scammer in jail... "ineffectual", but South Korea doing the same is effectual? Are US prisons that much cushier that South Korean prisons?

I initially agreed with the author but at a second thought, I found the author made a big mistake of not distinguishing different types of quality.

The article talked about mostly entertainment or art related quality. However when it comes to utility related quality, it is a totally different story. It is obvious. I even don't need to expand on that.
> Why is the author responsible for solving the "elephant in the room" of affordability?

They could have at least mentioned it! Complaining that academia doesn't do what the author wants is one thing and completely justified - I think we both agree that the situation of modern academia is a disgrace - but to not even mention the two biggest drivers behind the situation once is ... sad.

> It seems like excuses are constantly made for those responsible for education's conversion into a means of resupply for employers

Oh I'm not excusing that. I'm accusing, both employers for demanding their prospective employees go through many years of training that they won't ever need and saddling themselves with debt for it (we used to label jobs requiring one to pay for training as scams, 'member?), and society itself for not pushing back on this crap. But in order to credibly accuse someone, one first has to name the goddamn thing and state that there are two giant elephants in the china shop that is our modern society.
This is far more true than you know. Almost everyone in the west is subject to US law via our extra-territorial wire fraud or money laundering statutes that will get you as soon as anything ( read: most everything) you touch remotely touches the US banking system.

While the research itself is probably/potentially useful, the price is hardly justified.

> Among Democratic voters, 76 percent said they “care more about potential health benefits than the potential health risks of vaccines.” But among Republicans, it’s split evenly: 51 percent care more about the potential health risks, while 49 percent care more about the benefits.
This is a pretty sad and cynical way to live life. Also, your point isn't even very good. It is useful to know where research is coming from; it's hardly the same as the strawman example of "34 yo woman discovers blah blah blah". Also, this ridiculous notion that "No one cares about the 'meta data'" is silly. Actual academics are interested in the names of the venue of publication as well as the institutions of the researchers involved; is it the primary thing that matters? No, but its pretty weird to be upset about such a minor thing. Though, I'm not surprised to see this kind of comment on HN.

The way to 'beat' the system's hard testing requirements is to make the interdisciplinary programs more involved, more quantitative, and just be more thorough and engaging, including soft skills elements.

I think the best outcome is to have such students crush their standardized tests by outperforming them due to having a higher baseline because of the interdisciplinary program's curriculum.

I've been using Helix for some months now but haven't touched Rust. For that I plan to go temporarily back to vscodium + rust-analyzer + probe-rs which I know is a crazy good combination (no stinky openocd configurations, no gdb and connecting it to one of gazillion debug plugins - probe-rs has its own DAP thingy).

In meanwhile I'll look into neovim and making its selection model more like in Helix. For me it's not about motion before verb... I can use visual mode etc.. but about having consistent advanced commands for refining multicursor selections like selecting in selection, searching in selection, spliting selection to even more cursors or collapsing touching selections into one etc.

I played around with this in a VM the last time it was mentioned on HN.

The thing I want to do, but wasn't able to find a way to accomplish was to have a virtual desktop switcher gadget and a separate gadget to swallow minimized applications where each can be placed independently on the screen (and preferably auto hide)-- this will be separate application(s) from Labwc, but I did not find anything for Wayland that could do this (I do not like the MS Windows style task bar with menus, desktop switcher, etc., in one single bar).

Anyone have any suggestions?

Another nice to have would be to have screen edge bindings, where moving the mouse pointer or dragging a window over an edge, or corner, of the screen can be made to take an action. I'm not sure if this could even be accomplished with a stand-alone utility under Wayland, or if this must be done by the compositor. But, if possible, and anyone knows of something that exists, I am all ears.

One of the things I liked with labwc is that you can have traditional X style application menus by right-click/left-clicking the root window (it is not the default, but was easy to setup).
Just adding some links for reference.. in both California and New York, employers explicitly can NOT enforce IP assignment of work done on an employees own time and with their own equipment. (As long as the work is not related to the employers buisness). In other words such clauses in employment agreements in those states would be unenforceable.

There's no conspiracy.

The 1 v. 2 proposition on lobsters is missing a third take: that adtech doesn't think this is a problem, firms toying with this are confident their approach is perfectly legal and a competitive advantage worth protecting, and people applying to reviled industries self-select into getting paid for things they're fine with.

Many people work in unpopular industries (tobacco, gambling, etc.), and don't spend their time talking to the press about it. Doesn't make it a conspiracy.
