Here's the NIH scientific integrity policy that was rescinded:

https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-24-1...

I'm not sure how it differs from HHS, but I'd be very interest to see if anybody does. I've thrown it through an LLM for summarization, but that's not reliable enough to be a comment on HN.
Great! Can you provide a link to the court order so we can see?
I don’t know. I ran the site advertised here through its own free check and it came back with 1 bug.

Disagreed, If you need soft kind words to believe the guy telling you the sky is blue over the guy speaking softer but telling you the sky is red, you're the problem, not me.

I respond in good faith until the other party shows themselves not to be, and his glib rhetoric of "what do you mean, cost-gated?" while in the next sentence demonstrating he knows exactly what I'm speaking of - a public healthcare option - made it clear what type of person I was dealing with, and it wasn't a good faith commenter.

I've heard every argument that guy made and can make 1000 times over from fox news talking heads or an equivalent level person.

What strengthens my positions are, well, the truthfulness of them. All of the facts and studies support my message, playing nice with a bad faith commenter has no bearing on any of the facts I presented.

Not to mention he calls a thought out, four citation response "unhinged prattle" because he refuses to engage with any of my responses (he knows i'm right) to his dishonest comment. It's the conservative m.o, I've seen it a thousand times.

If you can't/won't accept reality because there was some extremely mild condescension, that's on you. Plus that guy deserved no good faith, I've heard his exact comment from every conservative talking head for a decade+, I know guys like him backwards to forwards (politically)
Your reply would make more sense to me if I had mentioned the HN guideline against using the site for political battle, but I didn't. The guidelines I listed your comment as breaking don't have anything to do with that.

But here's a response anyhow—if you look at the past explanations here:

https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so...

you'll find exhaustive explanations of how we approach politics on HN. If you read some of that and still have a question that isn't answered there, I'd be happy to take a crack at it.

I should add, though, that it's too much to expect moderation to be consistent. The principles by which we moderate HN are consistent, but it's not possible to apply them consistently to all the content. There's far too much content for us to process it all, and randomness is a major factor in sevreral different ways.
I don’t think any of those rules were unreasonable. In fact I’d say they were pretty common in England.

I can’t think of anyone who would be ok with kids drawing on the walls.

And saying “please” and “thank you” is just common decency. If you can’t show your own family that level of respect then how are you going to treat anyone else?

That all said, I don’t agree with the core premise of the article about limiting digital content purely because it’s digital. You can have “analogue” play with kids and still allow them to consume TV, play games on a tablet, etc.

It’s about getting the balance right. Kids need exposure to digital content to learn self control for starters. And they need to understand what content is safe and what is not. If parents are banning digital content wholesale then kids will learn these lessons the hard way in adulthood.

And in my experience, most kids want a balance of analogue and digital play anyway. Younger kids want to spend time riding bikes, plays sports and/or board/card games with their parents. They want experiences with their parents.

So you can have the best of both worlds here.

Really? So that he was abducted by aliens is also on the table and has the same probability?

Obviously there can be some prior information that makes „he was exfiltrated by Chinese intelligence services“ more likely than „he was disappeared by US intelligence services“.

I’m not saying there is, but philosophically, you don’t need to know anything more than „A person with relations to china disappeared“ to be able to determine one hypothesis as the most likely one.

> You accidentally have made my point for me again. Why should this at all be the case? What natural economic factors lead to this outcome?

Economies of scale. That's it. The overhead per employee is much, much smaller in a big company, it's much easier to acquire more labor/investment, and there's much more stability for planning.

This is a GOOD THING. This is how we enjoy cheap goods and services. It's all well and good to crow about small business, but actually dealing with small businesses frankly sucks as a consumer.

> You could also just compete with them. Market domination is one of the factors in determining if an illegal monopoly exists.

Google Search dominates the market mostly because it's better than all the other competitors. iPhones dominate the market (at least in the US) because people prefer them. Not all monopolies are the result of illegal behavior, and not all monopolies are equal.

Market dominance is necessary but not sufficient to call a monopoly illegal.

> So owning platforms that deliver ads is an important part of market lock up.

If you criteria is "all platforms which could deliver ads" then Google not only doesn't have the market locked up, they're incredibly far from it.

> All things that deliver ads or gather user data for the purposes of advertising, yes?

I don't know about you, but I find that I go to YouTube to watch videos, call Waymo to physically go from point A to point B, use my phone to make calls and browse, and use Cloud for my compute needs.

Just because a product COULD be used to deliver ads does not mean that's what it's for. It's nuts to try and see the world that way and I cannot even begin to understand why you would want to.

> With the exception of their cloud.. they all used to be independent companies.

Dude, no. Waymo, Pixel, Cloud, Photos, and Search are homegrown. YouTube was an acquisition - but comparing how much work has been done post-acquisition vs pre-acquisition it might as well also have been 100% in-house.

Your facts are seriously wrong here. Google is not acquiring finished businesses and extracting all the profit they can from them, PE-style; they're actually creating value.

> That there are attributable reasons for the outcome is not interesting, why this illegal outcome is not prosecuted is.

There are definitely things Google does which are illegal, like that Apple default search deal!

By and large, though, the company is wildly profitable because it offers services which its users find useful.
Some spies in the USSR did just get vanished, especially low-level domestic spies. Yeah the American dude running around and being caught for spying would probably get the media circus, but the mid-level manager he gave some cigarettes and money to in exchange for information about the production levels at the factory the manager worked to might instead find himself quietly arrested one evening, tried and sent off to the gulag by the early hours of the morning. You didn't really want or need to make a spectacle of those kinds of spies, since everyone already sort of had an idea of what happened.

> The U.S. Constitution can be amended by an act of Congress

No, it can't. If 2/3 of the House & Senate agree, they can propose an amendment to send to the states. It then takes 3/4 of states ratifying it to actually amend the Constitution.

> Running as Vice President: President Trump can run as Vice President with a space filler as President in 2028.

The 12th Amendment likely bars that, because of the 22nd. If you're not eligible to to be President, you aren't eligible to be Vice President either.

> but it is not completely clear if that refers to two presidential terms under any circumstances or two consecutive presidential term

This is just plain nonsense. They might as well argue that it doesn't make it clear whether two is a number or not.

This whole thing is silly. Let's not forget that amending this would mean Obama would be eligible to run again.
What do you base all these claims on? Plenty of papers show Solar + wind + storage is viable practically everywhere.

Also there is a ton of research on planning energy systems and what technology mixes make sense. This stuff has to be economical. Energy costs are measured in percentage of GDP. Simply liking nuclear doesn't make it viable. Especially in a world with PV meaning you can't sell energy during the day.

There really is only one macro fact that will shape the energy system of the future: The price of PV modules is now effectively zero in rich countries. Everything else has to be judged by how well it complements/makes use of free energy during daylight hours. The geopolitical implications of this haven't even begun to be explored.
So except for playing with computers class then school should be mostly analog?

Think like a Bayesian. How many spies have been caught lately? of them, how many did the DOJ showcase?

Wikipedia has a list of imprisoned spies in the USA. It is pretty sparse, the last spy to be convicted in the USA was in 2016. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_imprisoned_spies

Searching the DOJ homepage with the search term “spy” (to see which they have showcased) gives us 209 results, including a bunch of news around the 2009 conviction. The most resent news I found was from 2022 (https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/five-individuals-cha...) a very vague news which is actually more about harassing private citizen (presumably piggy-banking out of the anti-asian hate following Covid). The most resent news about actual spying against the US government was from 2020 (https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/former-cia-officer-a...) Alexander Yuk Ching Ma. He was actually found guilty in may 2024 (so he is missing from that Wikipedia list). The DOJ article about the conviction doesn’t use the word spy, so it is missing from my search, but here it is: https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/former-cia-officer-s....

Given the above, I think it is safe to bet that if he was arrested for being a spy, the DOJ would indeed want to showecase it. However, spies are very rare, and the likelyhood of OP’s case being a spy is very low. It is much more likely that he disappeared for other reasons.

> the university put him on leave weeks

but then why did his students not know about it?

if normally a professor or similar is put on leave there are procedures about informing students in affected courses, replacement professors being found or courses being cancelled etc.

the fact that this procedures seem to not have been followed is strange and looks like someone wanted this to go over without much attention

that his wife seems to be affected too is even more strange

that no even vague reason is told even now is also supper strange

I mean thing about it especially given how much it has blown up there is no reason for them to not at least give a vague reason, if they don't it's because they can't (e.g. court order) or they have a good reason to not want to (which is strange by itself).
And not a single politician is addressing it. Shameful.
I think maybe you were using 'deviant' in a tongue and cheek way, but I think the way kids are naturally inclined to limit test and push boundaries in service of learning more about the world is among the most beautiful things in human existence.

Hopefully that's not the part of thr story you feel embarrassed about.
I wonder if there's a cultural element to it: do people support democratic processes in their families, neighborhoods, companies, etc? If not, I imagine it might be hard to top-down enforce democracy.
I wonder if those people would also argue it doesn't violate the "be kind" rule. Maybe adding empathy to that list could help. I think the ability to look at things from other people's perspectives and ascribe to the idea that one may very well be wrong... shows a lot more intelligence than the alternative.

A professor's lecture notes would never be good notes for a student to learn from. They are simply reminders to the professor to talk about certain topics that they know the ins and outs of.

I appreciate the dedication to minimal performant code. For me a standard Jekyll setup with a theme and github pages is absolutely fine. It's slow and a bit annoying sometimes but it's very straightforward markdown to html and compiles categories into URL structure. It's also easy to throw in some JS if you need, customise CSS etc.
> This sounds exactly like the type of lecture I would have skipped.

I understand that one could jump to such a conclusion; and I’ve attended more than my fair share of talks where the speaker over little more than I could glean from looking over the printouts for a few minutes.

But here, can we truly come to the conclusion that the slides are being read verbatim, or whether they are placeholders for a richer discussion that comes out verbally in class? We obviously cannot know, but I can’t say that I’d pre-commit to skipping before knowing more.

From what I understand the PRC tries pretty hard to provide a lot of incentives to academic returnees.

There are uncomfortable truths in the world, and Haiti's story is one of them.

After the slaves revolted and gained independence in 1804, the state was embargoed. Haiti's first president, Alexandre Pétion, offered paying the value of the lost land to the French government.

Simultaneously, they reached out to the British and offered favorable trade terms to them. But a slave revolt was seen as untenable at the time and the British agreed to allow France to pursue "whatever means possible, including that of arms, to recover Saint-Domingue and to subdue the inhabitants of that colony."

Around the same time, Haiti tried to ally itself with the US, offering its ports + favorable trade. The US also sided with the French against the former slave colony.

Facing military invasion, in 1825, they agreed to pay indemnity for the value of the slaves lost by the French government for a total of 150 million francs. As they couldn't pay the amount in lump sum, Haiti was forced to enter into unfavorable loans with the United States and France to pay the slavery debt. Around 80%+ of GDP was used to pay foreign debt

By the late 1800s, eighty percent of Haiti's wealth was being used to pay foreign debt; France was the highest collector, followed by the German Empire and the United States

Non-payment wasn't an option. In 1903, Haiti accused the capital institutions France had set up for debt extraction within Haiti of fraud. That threat led a coalition of private entities who owned the bonds, working with the US State Department, to use the US military to invade the former state. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_occupation_of_Ha...

Haiti didn't pay off its debts until 1947. For reference, Joe Biden was 5 years old when Haiti finally paid off this slavery debt.

As the overwhelming majority of the state's economic output was sapped by this debt, Haiti lacked the ability to invest in itself until the end of WW2.

Post-WW2, Haiti went through decades of political turmoil and never achieved political stability.

Haiti's present cannot be judged without the weight of this past. And it's future cannot be charted without accounting for it.

Of course, the place that was invaded at the drop of a hat and deprived of resources never learned to build civil institutions and non-corrupt governance. Fixing this probably requires a lot of close study to develop very specific interventions to change Haiti's culture and help it prosper.
