Or relax the requirements so you don't need a 6-8 years of postsecondary education and a 250k degree to be a glorified cashier. And that is before even getting into the consolidation of the pharmacy/PBM industry.

I've spent a lot of time in tiny poor Mexican towns that manage to have a pharmacy, sometimes several. Not only that, but you can get hundreds of prescriptions over the counter that would cost thousand dollar doctors visits in the US.

I can only imagine every small town in the US would also have an economically viable pharmacy if the regulatory environment here was the same.
> they will only give you three months of it at a time and the freaking GPs office charges $20 each time to receive a "please can I have some more" request on their web site / app and forward the order to the pharmacy.

I take it you are outside of the US? For all the criticism of the American health system, this has never been a problem.

For most maintenance medications, which this sounds like it is, the doctor will authorize one year's supply, for which you pick them up every 30 or 90 days at a time. When you run out of refills the pharmacy will usually contact your doctor for re-authorization, typically at no charge.

Often the doctor wants to see you anyway to check your progress before you run out.

During your yearly visit there is usually a short conversation about getting medication refilled.

The exception to this are when the doctor wants to order tests to see how you are reacting to the medication, or periodic tests for long term medications (in case they need to adjust the dosage).

Things like pain medications or for urgent issues are dispensed as a one-time thing.

> Social medias promise of social connections was really just the same as what drug dealers offer, the good stuff for new consumers and then once they are hooked give them the cheap stuff. They really don’t care about ‘social’ part of it because the addiction potential is so high.

This is a little to cynical of a take and ignores how social media really evolved. Facebook and myspace were actual social places where we interacted with each other.

You need to look at the evolution (which mostly happened organically) where businesses started joining as people and eventually social media stopped being social and turned into a one direction communication platform. The only non-organic evolution i think is the change from chronological timeliness to algorithim

>3) temporary, while they rewrite materials from “Secretary Powell, a Black man” style that emphasizes immutable characteristics

What?

Did it ever occur to you that the fact some of these veterans are minorities is historically relevant given a climate of abject racism and sexism that persisted well into the 20th century, if not throughout the majority of it? Precisely because of their "immutable characteristics," to use your parlance.

Here’s an excerpt from Charles C. Rogers’ Wikipedia page:

”He attended the town's race-segregated elementary school for "colored children," and then attended the all-black DuBois High School in Mount Hope, West Virginia.[7][8]”

That’s rough. Let's read some more:

"In 1951, Charles Rogers joined the US Army as a second lieutenant through the Army ROTC program at West Virginia State College.[7] The Army was still segregated when he joined and his first assignment was an all-black unit stationed in Bavaria; the executive order commanding racial desegregation of the U.S. military went into effect six months later.[9] By 1954, after Rogers had been denied a path to becoming a chemical engineer with the Army, he submitted his resignation, in part because of a "'clear pattern' of discrimination..."

Huh, seems relevant. This is the same man that went on to earn the Congressional Medal of Honor some years later.

But hey, let’s language police a deceased war hero's official bio because it mentions he’s Black, and otherwise defend the folks issuing idiotic orders that amount to historical erasure.

Supporting this shit via way of whining about malicious compliance is a disgrace. You’re on the wrong side of history.

> The rapid decline in progress in modern times would seem most likely to suggest that something we are taking as a fundamental assumption is probably wrong, rather than that the next door is just unimaginably difficult to open.

We actually know we have:

Bell’s inequality tells us that the universe is non-local or non-real. We originally preferred to retain locality (ie, Copenhagen interpretation) but were later forced to accept non-locality. But now we have a pedagogy and machinery built on this (incorrect) assumption — which people don’t personally benefit from re-writing.

Science appears trapped in something all too familiar to SDEs:

A technical design choice turned out to be wrong, but a re-write is too costly and risky for your career, so everyone just piles on more tech debt — or modern epicycles.

And perhaps that’s not a bad thing, in and of itself. Eg, geons were initially discarded because the math doesn’t work out — but with the huge asterisk that they might still be topologically stabilized. But the math there is hard and so it makes sense to continue piling onto the current model until enough advances in modeling (eg, 4D anyons) allow for exploring that idea again.

Similar to putting off moving tech stacks until someone else demonstrates it solves their problems.

But at least topological geons would explain one question: why does space look like geometry but particles look like algebra?

Because topological surgery looks like both!

> clear that the luminiferous aether was wrong

Another interpretation is that the aether exists, but we’re also made of aether stuff — so we squish when we move, rather than rigidly moving through it (as per the theory tested by Michelson-Morley). That squishing cancels out the expected measurement in MM. LIGO (a scaled MM experiment) then works because waves in the aether squish and stretch us in a detectable way.

Modern theories are effectively this: everything is fields, which we believe to be low-energy parts of some unified field.

C++ surpassed C performance decades ago. While C still has some lingering cachet from its history of being “fast”, most software engineers have not worked at a time when it was actually true. C has never been that amenable to scalable optimization, due mostly to very limited abstractions and compile-time codegen.

iOS, https://docs.mvt.re/en/latest/ios/methodology/

> You will need to decide whether to attempt to jailbreak the device and obtain a full filesystem dump, or not.

Since Apple won't allow iDevice owners to access an unredacted raw disk image for forensics, iOS malware detection tools are hamstrung. The inability to fully backup devices means that post-intrusion device restore is literally impossible. Only a new OS version can be installed, then a subset of the original data can be restored, then every app/service needs to re-establish trust with this newly "untrusted" (but more trustworthy than the previously trusted-but-compromised) device.

In theory, Apple could provide their own malware analysis toolset, or provide optional remote attestation to verify OS and baseband integrity.

In the absence of persistent disk artifacts, the next best option is behavioral analysis, e.g. usage anomalies ("dog that did not bark") in CPU, battery, storage or network. Outbound network traffic can be inspected by a router and compared against expected application and system traffic. This requires an outbound firewall where rules can specify traffic by wildcard domain names, which are widely used by CDNs. Apple helpfully provides a list of domains and port numbers for all Apple services.
Unless you clearly define how and when you’re going to handle removing a standard or updating it to reflect better use cases.

> what matters is whether it will make things worse, regardless of whether that worsening counts as correct behavior or not

Correct. Escalating from peaceful to violent protest shouldn't (I'd argue cannot) be responsibly decided in the moment.

If you went to a peaceful protest "that was starting to get a bit rowdy," the situation clearly changed from underneath you. Go home. Take stock. Decide if what you saw was random rioting or targeted violence. If the latter, decide if and how you can help and if it will make things better or worse.

I'm struggling to imagine non-Hollywood scenarios where someone showing up to peacefully protest is useful when it effectively escalates to civil war.
> Ignoring what the ISO C language spec says, are there any modern hardware platforms (say: ARM64 and X86-64) that do not use two's complement to implement signed integers?

This is not how compilers work. Optimization happens based on language semantics, not on what platforms do.
"And you are an alarmist. You are saying that this must lead to this, and you can't prove it. These are the beginnings, yes; but how do you know for sure when you don't know the end, and how do you know, or even surmise, the end? On the one hand, your enemies, the law, the regime, the Party, intimidate you. On the other, your colleagues pooh-pooh you as pessimistic or even neurotic. You are left with your close friends, who are, naturally, people who have always thought as you have....

"But the one great shocking occasion, when tens or hundreds or thousands will join with you, never comes. That’s the difficulty. If the last and worst act of the whole regime had come immediately after the first and smallest, thousands, yes, millions would have been sufficiently shocked—if, let us say, the gassing of the Jews in ’43 had come immediately after the ‘German Firm’ stickers on the windows of non-Jewish shops in ’33. But of course this isn’t the way it happens. In between come all the hundreds of little steps, some of them imperceptible, each of them preparing you not to be shocked by the next. Step C is not so much worse than Step B, and, if you did not make a stand at Step B, why should you at Step C? And so on to Step D.

"And one day, too late, your principles, if you were ever sensible of them, all rush in upon you. The burden of self-deception has grown too heavy, and some minor incident, in my case my little boy, hardly more than a baby, saying ‘Jewish swine,’ collapses it all at once, and you see that everything, everything, has changed and changed completely under your nose."

Depending on the stage, investors don't care about any of the details except for the founders ability to raise the next round and their probability to IPO at a later/advanced stage. The stock is the product and whether you are selling a real time machine or a crystal is irrelevant.

Which is not that "insane" really. If that's how money is being made, and investors are in the business of making money, then that's the path they are going to take.
How did the "server executable" get written in the first place, and how can it be maintained and enhanced over time, if the only revenue stream for the company is from (optional) hosting services?

Wonder how good this is at resolving merge conflicts:

> Offline? No problem, keep writing, your edits will get synced when back online

Have been burned too many times in college.

person 1: is updating doc

person 2: is updating doc

person 3; updating doc

(( doc reaches a dozen pages ))

person 3 loses internet connection but everyone else continues working

Person 3 adds and edits a handful of pages while offline while #1, #2 keep chugging along.

#3 internet is restored and now the system attempts to merge in their changes and sync changes from #1, #2. At the same time, #1, #2 receiving updates from #3

Now chaos ensues as the system is throwing a shit ton of errors and old changes getting reverted. Immediate showstopper.

Not so fun times. And a lesson learned.

We don't need (and shouldn't want) bans at all. We need very strict criteria on what platforms can or cannot do, how they can or cannot operate. They should be massively scrutinized, with an enormous amount of regulation and oversight, that results in such platforms being unable to take actions deemed unsafe for the public. (At the very least, in the form of eye-watering fines or disincentives, but perhaps extending as far as limiting the field to non-profits, and/or the risk of the government taking control of your platform if it does not comply.)

Ask HN: Best practices to put Claude Code and OpenManus and Windsurf together

Oh, absolutely. Software cannot scale without trust. No single person is capable of auditing their browser or operating system either.
Why don't you actually "trivially Google it" and see what comes up? Spoiler: it's not Tesla.

Normal, non-luxury cars from virtually every other manufacturer come STANDARD with radar. It's hooked into AEB and cruise control. Even new CIVICS come with radar AEB.

A radar-based system generally offers instantaneous speed and depth information. The best Teslas can do with cameras is guess at distance and then take finite differences to estimate speed - i.e. they make an estimate from an estimate.

The entire rest of the self-driving industry has known this forever - it's why Waymo, Cruise, Zoox, et. al. (who have actually tackled the long-tail cases of autonomy) not only use radar/LIDAR, but slap multiple of them on their vehicles.

Even a human being cannot reliably brake based solely on visual information.

Research IS future revenue. The total failure of current industry leaders to remember their history of taking pure R&D, largely from publicly funded research, and then put into applied research and development tracks, was (could be is, but we're dismantling all that) something that heavily influenced the post WW2 economic boom and it's aftershocks.

The EU and APAC nations who want to bootstrap a fold forward will take advantage of this.
I believe software does that, in that characters are disambiguated in part based on previous characters, even without swipe typing. That means each character is mapped to a secondary keyboard layout where certain keys' "hitbox" are enlarged.

Intelligence is closely related to the concept of attractiveness and gravitas. You say it depends on the agent. I say it's in the eye of the beholder. People aren't very good at explaining what attracts them either.

The closest thing we have to a definition for intelligence is probably the LLMs themselves. They're very good at predicting words that attract people. So clearly we've figured it out. It's just such a shame that this definition for intelligence is a bunch of opaque tensors that we can't fully explain.

LLMs don't just defy human reasoning and understanding. They also challenge the purpose of intelligence itself. Why study and devise systems, when gradient descent can figure it out for you? Why be cleverer when you can just buy more compute?

I don't know what's going to make the magical black pill of machine learning more closely align with our values. But I'm glad we have them. For example, I think it's good that people still hold objectivity as a virtue and try to create well-defined benchmarks that let us rank the merits of LLMs using numbers. I'm just skeptical about how well our efforts to date have predicted the organic processes that ultimately decide these things.

First of all: this is utterly beautiful, thank you!

There is an important thing about computer interfaces which does not hold for playing an instrument, or woodworking, or dancing, etc: it very often needs to be done privately and discreetly enough, both to avoid publicizing your private affairs, and to allow several people work near each other, or work near people who are not working, without bothering them.

This significantly limits the use of the body language (finger gestures are OK; gestures, so-so; poses, no), sound (listening is OK provided headphones, speaking or singing, much less so), haptics (some force feedback is OK, noisy vibration and clicking, less so).

This does not mean that all these things are useless! Not at all; audio feedback may be welcome, haptic feedback may be welcome, but both should be optional (e.g. in a game), unless sound is what you work with anyway (e.g. in a DAW).

What I miss is the richness of erstwhile interfaces, with their colors, shapes, textures, pseudo-3D effects, the occasional skeumorphism. They gave so many clues, helpful hints that encouraged exploration, and provided large amounts of subtle feedback. Sadly, they were considered "noisy" and removed by æsthetics purists, likely the same people who designed the sharp, wrist-biting "clean" edges of certain Macbook models. This regress needs to be revested.

Something has to be said about non-keyboard controls. They are few, and non-standard, with the exception of touchpad / touchscreen and mice. They allowed direct manipulation and gestures to flourish! But, unlike knobs, these cannot give reasonable haptic feedback. Musicians have all the best devices like that, and those who need such controls repurpose MIDI devices with their knobs and faders; GIMP, a raster graphics editor, even has a special MIDI device configuration section in settings. Another good source of haptic controls are mice with their wheels, and, more rare, game pads with joysticks. Neither is assumed to be connected to an average laptop though, which limits their use in interfaces, however optional.

> The poor-rated vehicles also struggled in the tests with the passenger car target. Most failed to slow enough in the 37 mph test with the target centered to qualify for additional AEB testing. However, in most trials with the passenger car and semitrailer, they delivered timely forward collision alerts.

Detecting a motorcycle is significantly harder than detecting a semitrailer, which is what this kind of wall would look like to a radar.

While walls like this are a contrived example, I distinctly remember a case from a few years ago where Autopilot failed to detect a semitrailer, drove under it at full speed, and decapitated the driver.
Hell, even .net will lose you traffic. If someone has your desired name with .com so that you use any other TLD, you will lose traffic. If your .com is taken by someone in the same line of work and not just a coincidental use of the same domain, then you'd be insane to not change the domain. I'm not sure how many people manually type domains in any more (I do though), and .com is muscle memory.
