well yes, that's the flaw and why so much "blue collar" sectors have lagged behind in the US. We have the best software in the world, but we are vulnerable to china because everyone decided to let our silicon chips factories erode away.

Turns out relying on a country the US defines as hostile for such vital hardware to power up software was a horrible idea, even if the number did go up.

Used this to debug an application crash in a vendor's proprietary windows app recently, and I was able to file a detailed bug report. (Though they decided it's notabug, womp womp.)

You can install it with winget, but it's very particular about whether you're debugging a win32 or win64 app and it's a bit of a pain to get it to install both or just win32. I wonder if it would be possible to have both bundled in the same installer and just automatically relaunch the app if you try to debug a program with a mismatching arch. Or just download from the releases page...

Curious thing to say. For me it is obvious that the content is the book’s essence.
Hamas agreed to this deal months ago. Give Trump credit for applying pressure to the party that actually rejected it.
You have that a little mixed up. Both UnitedHealthcare (UHC) and Optum are subsidiaries of UnitedHealth Group (UHG). UHC never bought Optum. Some parts of Optum were spun out of UHC's IT department so that they could commercialize software they had developed for internal use and sell it to other customers (including some of UHC's competitors in the commercial payer space). Other parts of Optum were acquired or created internally. What is now OptumRx (the PBM) was originally PacifiCare Health Systems. UHG acquired that business way back in 2005 before the Optum brand even existed.

I agree that more reform and enforcement is needed in the healthcare industry but let's at least get the facts and history right.

I don't understand how is this different to all wars? back then when the Nazis started the war and we had to declare war against them. Or when we nuked 2 cities of Japan, were we also afraid that we will create multiple generations of anger and hate? how is this different?

I'm not comparing Israel or Palestine to Nazi, it's just a bitter fact that war always create anger and hate. Something had to be done though?
Ok, but huge textbooks with lots of ink colors and lots of diagrams that make them heavy, hard to carry, hard to read and use, and expensive?

It's the same kind of mentality that thinks "reality TV" is about real people and not intentionally produced performances.
The "era of good enough" here really resonates with me, I've been in product and people mgmt and there's a lot of tension between "optimal amount of quality for the business" vs "optimal amount of quality for the user", esp in B2B or other contexts where the user isn't necessarily the buyer. The author sort of blows off "something something bad incentives" but IMO that is the majority of it.

On top of that, people have genuinely different preferences so what seems "better" for a user to one person might not to another.

And then on top of that, yeah, some people don't care. But in my experience w/ software engineers at least, the engineers cared a lot, and wanted to take a lot of pride in what they built, and often the people pushing against that are the mgmt. Sometimes for good reason, sometimes not, that whole thing can get very debateable.
"We’ve done this forever"

Well that's simply not true. I worked for a company in Texas that hosted multiple Texas based porn sites. They only checked that one had a valid credit card. Not sure what they meant by "forever".
I can see what you mean about a lack of positive experiences on social media, I think tiktok is the first one I see genuinely having a positive impact on myself and others. It's so frustrating seeing all these people who have clearly never been on there talk about it like it's the CCP selling us heroin.
I lost my cash app account to "gambling or against TOS" because whatever blockchain analysis they did found that it touched something they didn't like.

Was fully verified, personal info handed away to the max.

No inquiry, no interaction. Just "nah, you're done."

The irony here is that them holding the crypto is 100% a-ok (and selling at a profit etc). Which goes back to discussions of coin taint.

They discovered that the coin they had was "bad" but that didn't stop them from dealing with it. And so the gov will continue to hammer + fine.

The "compliance program insufficiencies" is a dog + pony show. All they can do is take everyone's info (they do), and keep a list of known addresses and see how many naughty addresses whatever crypto was affiliated with / how close / etc and then shut it down.

They've put up a bit of a resistance, because while they shut accounts down, they still let the cash leave. It's just a bit disingenuous to have a "violatable policy" that isn't provably illegal in any way.

Well, with all due respect, I reckon that tinfoil hat really accentuates your character, Light reflecting as it’s drawn toward the aluminum and all.
The US already does have tough public prosecutors. It also has overly tough mandatory sentencing, poor public defender availability, extremely high plea agreement rates, and folks with a criminal history can't get jobs (and in many cases reasonable housing). We need criminal justice reform, with a focus on reducing recidivism. Our current system basically forces felons back into crime, as they have no alternative to make a living.

This idea that the US isn't tough on crime is mind boggling. The US is tougher than many authoritarian regimes. We have the 5th highest per-capita prisoner population, and the highest total prisoner population in the world. At some point we have to realize that putting more people into prison doesn't solve our problems.

Don't take this the wrong way. I'm not advocating for lighter prison sentences for violent crime, but a small minority of the prison population is violent offenders, and really, a small minority of overall crime is violent and as a whole the rate for violent crime has been on decline since the 70s, with the current rates at a historical low.

Being tough on crime is mostly a political tool, where police departments and prosecutors juke stats and over-prosecute crimes. Again, the vast majority occur through plea agreements, so people don't really get to defend themselves, and they settle because they otherwise face stiffer sentences and can't afford legal representation. This game is for people like you, who vote enthusiastically for people who pretend to solve problems.
Only for farmed salmon.

Wild salmon eat krill and other smaller organisms, many of which provide the components to turn the salmon meat a shade of pink.

Farmed salmon don't get the same components in their feed, so their meat isn't the same colour. So the farmers add some of those components into the salmon feed, et voila - pink salmon meat.

> Take the Nvidia H100 – a massive GPU weighing in at 814mm2. Traditionally this chip would be very difficult to yield economically. But since its cores (SMs) are fault tolerant, a manufacturing defect does not knock out the entire product. The chip physically has 144 SMs but the commercialized product only has 132 SMs active. This means the chip could suffer numerous defects across 12 SMs and still be sold as a flagship part.

Fault tolerance seems to be the wrong term to use here. If I wrote this, I would have written redundant.
I have no idea how you can believe that media does not affect a person's beliefs.

You're correct. My wording was off.
It's even worse than you're saying actually, because health care has no price transparency, very little consumer choice, no negotiating power on the part of the user and even the services provided are extremely opaque.

To be honest, I'm quite surprised you're siding with the provider here. Are you personally satisfied with healthcare pricing in the United States? Do you not share my intuition that in general, healthcare is too expensive and inefficient?
I will go one deeper. Are fields (quantum fields) even real, or just a model ?
I believe there's value in learning about such topics such us how historical village buildings are created from a child's perspective. Regardless whether it's Native American, European, or African, etc. It allows us to reflect on what was built before and to understand what to avoid or improve in future development. Not to teach them the exact technical details, but to light a spark to those children inclined. We need people who are interested in such things to study it so future generations can understand where we have come from and how far we have gone. I believe it also allows us to appreciate that there are many peoples and countries today that still live this way and allow us to be empathetic or humbled by their way of living.

I believe math and science should be invested in but if I had a choice between a broad learning curriculum and a focused one, ill choose broad.

If you've ever watched a movie or listened to music, you'll be surprised to know not all of the artists are well versed in math or science. You may be surprised that many of the people, experiences, entertainment, and sports you absorb may not be math inclined either. I personally find value in that.
You have to break it in, strangely enough. When I first used it it was like being logged out and watching Reels. But overtime it really understood what might interest me, even topics I didn't think I'd be interested in but was

There are many problems with individual ownership though. It is a whole large system where people constantly change. You need to have multiple owners and redundancy otherwise all the projects are dependent on one individual who might quit any time. Things happen in the past, people make mistakes and you start to incorporate processes to avoid it because people are and will always be imperfect, you end up with thise processes and bureaucracy.

> which do you think is better?

2). we already do it with other sectors where the US lagged behind as a country. But at least those companies aren't sucking up the US's resources directly then not paying for them (taxes).

The US has plenty of funding to bolster and talent to nurture. the next Google if tomorrow Google somehow got bought out by Bytedance.

Not to the actual workers. Which is the primary problem.

>taxes are paid here

No, no they aren't.

> and the money is spent here for housing, food, cars

Taxes are not paid, therefore we have underdeveloped housing in urban areas, surging food prices (that would have gotten worse with a certain merger), and the "economy" car is now $30, 000 instead of 10 (and EV's are more expensive because government doesn't/can't make subsidies for EV's).

You need to factor in waste disposal and decommissioning costs for nuclear.

The move fast and break things mantra, at least in my estimation, was always about not being fearful of trying new things. The things that break on the way were always going to break in the long run with enough changes accrued over time anyway. Implicit is an assumption that the things that were breaking were the most dysfunctional, or most restrictive parts, of incumbent systems of work or thought. Moving fast for the sake of moving fast, or for the sake of breaking things, was never the goal. It became a slogan of misplaced pride aimed at making movement the goal. At least that’s how I feel about that era.
Okay, but that seems irrelevant to this thread. What you're getting is RFK, and he doesn't like dyes in food. So as I understand it the original claim is false, and that's all this thread is trying to address.
When it's baked into the default price, more sales can be attributed to it (whether it's true or not), and more users will have used it (they're effectively paying for it, they'll at least try once)

On paper it will look good, as long as a trend of users vocally bailing out of Workspace doesn't happen. And given the enterprise nature of it, I don't see that happening.

More like 4 now. NAFTA was over 30 years ago now.

I don't think tarrifs will fix this, though. it didn't in 2018. It just lead to a trade war, costing billions in dollars in millions in jobs lost. We lost a lot of domestic production over the last 15 years, so a trade war arguably hurts the U.S. worse than China or Mexico.

Yeah… TikTok is absolutely chock full of garbage for me, whether or not I’m logged out.

YouTube Shorts are not bad now for this kind of thing. I’m guessing it’s based on my subscriptions so it’s already off to a good start for me.
Yes! People pay me a lot of money to do things that I don’t love doing.
Yeah, I have tried it out, and that's why I am confident that 11-year-olds are happily sending each other every sort of bad thing that exists on the internet!

I can tell my own kid, hey it's really inappropriate to send out thing X to a group chat. But I can't really police all the other kids.

I can at least say, hey I saw this stupid rumor. You'd have to be a complete idiot to actually believe that story is true. But, you know, it feels like I am trying to shovel back the tide.
I used to care so much 10 years ago. I didn't have to factor the state of the world or society into all my decision. I trusted society fully like I trusted air.

Now I feel like the boiling frog and I only trust a handful of people. I don't trust the system. I don't trust that it's fair. I feel like being honest is harming my survival odds.

Imagine you have to live in North Korea... Your awareness of how that society operates can make it challenging to sing your praises to your dear leader.

I really hope things change. I live outside the US and it feels like we get the worst of everything. It's as though the political machinations which used to take place in Africa to keep the people poor has spread on to parts of the western world in a slightly different form. In Africa, the environment is about artificial deprivation of resources and rights; in the west, it's about deprivation of opportunities.

In Africa, the goal is to deprive people of resources and rights; to allow corporate monopolies to exploit their labor as much as possible. In the west, the goal is to deprive people of opportunities to prevent them from competing against monopolies.

In the west, we have a fake society where everyone pretends to be on the same playing field, but we're not even close.

Ha. The traffic curb example is actually a good one. I don’t think it’s an excuse to build a potentially dangerous ramp because you aren’t a cyclist yourself. People who design ramps should be capable to do it properly.

Imagine it were a ramp for wheelchairs and they would have decided that a 20 degree slope is doable.
> Natural things aren't inherently safer.

Yes they are.

We have been exposed to, and made adjustments for, things in our environments.

Novel chemicals have novel effects.

There are plenty of dangerous natural things, and there are safe artificial things (I suppose).

But there is a clear basis for eating food that your great grandparents would recognise.

There is also a slowly mounting volume of evidence that there is something wrong with ultra processed foods, hard to say what, but it is becoming clear they are bad for us.

So natural things are inherently safer, all else equal
Do you have any evidence/links that discuss this? I'd be surprised that they'd get any whistleblower fees, because they themselves aren't actually the whistleblower. E.g. a whistleblower usually refers to actual insiders with private knowledge that then "blow the whistle". In Hindenburg's case, they basically just did research anyone is capable of doing (although in many cases, after they became known, they did have whistleblowers reach out to them).
My biggest question is who are the buyers?
I can get to the main Xinhua news website -- the Chinese one, not some US-specific page -- easily enough as an American. You definitely can't do the equivalent from within China, you can't get to Voice of America, or the New York Times, or similar sites.

That's the difference. It's not about operating as a business within the country, it's about banning access to even the foreign version of the site or app.

China commonly bans Western websites and apps, even ones that have never operated or attempted to operate as businesses within China. The US doing the same is relatively rare, situations like this TikTok ban are very uncommon.
Your post makes the assumption that Americans are less qualified. Why is that?
I think relying on your judgement of character to determine trust is a decent tactic in personal life and interactions, but it doesn't work at scale.

People place trust in faceless institutions all the time. That's why you sit in a box that produces about 50 explosions per second when you drive a car. I don't think you would've gained much by being comfortable with the character of your car designer. If you think building cars is complex, laws and regulations are just as complex. And it takes teams of lawyers, hundreds of pages of documents, and a lot of data to figure out what makes sense. But it's easy to armchair-judge all of that as "just some faceless institution".

> what forces exist to prevent them from being corrupted?

Why are you right now not stealing from your work, or vulnerable people around you? Why are you not trying to screw over everybody you meet? Those forces and more. There's a lot of scrutiny built into most institutions.

> the growing cynicism in institutions is because of evidence of corruption

I don't think we use the word "evidence" the same way. Having perverse incentives is not evidence.
Yes, whole grains cause cancer if you make them into bread and toast the bread. The evidence is much stronger than for Red dye No. 3.

https://www.fda.gov/food/process-contaminants-food/acrylamid...

Strawberries are also linked to cancer, because they contain sugar.

https://aacrjournals.org/cancerres/article/62/15/4339/508983...

Almost all natural foods are linked to cancer. The important question is, how large is the risk?

Dark toast is obviously much riskier than Red dye No. 3. We should think about that when we consider what to ban.
Except that with e.g. technical jargon, the audience is important because non-technical people don’t have the training/experience to understand what’s being said.

With office jargon, I understand everything being said, but the majority of it could be stated more simply and clearly without the use of it. This type of jargon is a social signaling tool, not a useful shortcut or simplification (again, most of the time). It’s also harder to parse for non-native speakers of English.
I'm not sure where the humor or joke was supposed to be nor where I claimed the original name lacked said association. Similarly, I don't particularly see "RedNote" as a well aimed choice for a rebrand set about for the purpose of distancing the app from communist associations.

TikTok doesn't use their literal translation either. Not because the name had a certain association but because it'd've also been a terrible way to market the app globally. I could give some credit to the idea there may have been more than a singular reason for changing the name but I can't buy the reason other apps also do is not at least a major factor, if not the largest.
When I know what I want, I order at the counter, which is faster and there's never a queue because everyone else is using the kiosk. There isn't a cashier waiting but you just stand there and somebody will stop to take your order pretty quickly.
