the increasing shift to blaming regulators is really notable when you put this on a timeline. Would be nice if people reacted with the historical knowledge about what Musk says rather than just the presumption that he is being true and hone

I would imagine speed/cost/aesthetics. The builders aren't going to think about long term repairability and few home owners would know to think about something like this or come up with a workable (and code compliant) solutio

I always laughed at this, until I became a parent, but am now utterly convinced that there are a lot of features out there that look stupid until you are a parent why does my fridge need to text me if the door is left open? that's ridi

If I’m in the kitchen sure! But after a 10hr work da bookended by 2 hrs on each side playing with my daughter and 1hr of dealing with life stuff I want to get into bed. Beds on the second floor…I can get up and go downstairs and check the l

We have one it’s great. The ability to start it, and confirm it’s started is a game changer. Especially because it’s preloaded with the chemicals. We don’t want to start it until we’re sure all the floating dishes actually got loaded. There

I would say it isn't a user experience choice its an aesthetic choice. And if he UX team, or whoever is making these decisions, is prioritizing aesthetics over functionality than I really don't know what to say.

No, it is a critique. When Pfizer does it it is a critique as well. The question is how much of a critique. In general… If you are dishonest about your conflict, you hide it, don’t do anything to control for it then having a conflict is a b

Not quite. My wife’s an epidemiologist (and a damn grouchy methods person…I get yelled at about study design A LOT). Her first check on any study like this is the denominator of different groups because that drives your results. This study

You are assuming a lot of knowledge in a lot of people. Let’s not dismiss people making clarifications that may not be immediately obvious to all HN readers

Just to be clear, this is the same concept the parent comment is referencing. Posting the link this way from an NIH aggregator seems designed to give the false appearance of NIH credibility to

So here’s where we have a problem… Proving something incorrect is proving proving the negative. That’s not how people engage in good faith argumentation. I’ll add, a traditional definition of “incorrect information” would primarily focus on

If you want proof let’s set some parameters on what you would consider sufficient for that proof.

This is a perfect sign of what I’m talking about. They fucked around with these people for so long that when they need them, actually need them, they aren’t there. They rolled the dice in an assumption that they held sufficient economic pow

We focus on human causes because we connect to them better. And because for many many people these are the concrete things that can understand when I’m a stressful situation. Abstract problems like decades of “capacity management” “workflow

I would suggest the explanation is similar to the supply chain. In the interest of profits we have wrung every ounce of every part of the system that runs healthcare. And at the end of all of those elements are human beings. Such systems ar

I had an extremely traumatic accident a week ago and came into a major city hospital as a level one trauma patient. I came in with absolutely no wait..ambulance directly to a trauma bay, no waiting, no clothing, no nothing. After about six

It’s the same thing…while the people here might be willing to split hairs on the exact meaning of those terms the people you are taking about are not going to. Strategic ambiguity around “freedom” “free market” etc is a useful tool to preve

In the abstract I totally agree But if you limit their targeting the entire method becomes much much less effective and hurts the economic incentive. Right now that seems the best they can do. The policies have to be realistic. The issue is

You’re looking at positive examples. The negative examples have serious potential to create harm. E.g.; 1) a teenager exploring/researching their own sexuality on the family computer causes ads to be served to very religious mom and da

It’s worth high lifting the summarize pattern in your experiences. Police unwilling to meet the basic needs of doing law enforcement. In each case you asked for obvious and basic effort at investigating crimes and they just opted out. It be

simpler approach here is they are unwilling or unable to find a useful basis for the argument. They haven't considered what these people do, just assumed there are to many of them without considering it.

I think people may read this as blunt and dismissive. I think its worth considering the poster's core thesis: You don't want us doing this job. If I spend 2-4 hours a week with 120 students it is really a lot to ask faculty (who a
