One thing that sometimes gets lost in the "health care is inefficient" discussion is that one person's inefficiency is another person's living. The cost controls the paper appears to advocate for literally mean someone i

This isn't quite the same in that the people in question actually repaid far more than they owed. The "loans" were structured in such a way that they don't seem to end in practice, and that when you give in you have to g

I'm curious to know some examples of what is and isn't permitted. The flashing lights, interesting but not too interesting ding-dong-boom sounds, the loud massive amping up when you win something, all that is allowed and I believe

I think the points that are well taken are those around identity, relationships and contacts. I've been using iPhones for something like 8-9 years and I didn't know I could specify a contact as a specific family relationship. A wh

One quibble: child cancer and adult cancer are treated differently. Children can actually take a whole lot more punishment (they tolerate toxicity better, have more ability to recover afterwards), so for some cancers the success rate is sub

I think olivewell's comment in this subthread is what dooms the idea of camera-only self driving for a really long time horizon: you basically need general AI for it. I work in machine learning in a different area (healthcare) so my pe

At this point performance cars are no longer truly exploitable on a road legally. Yeah you can do a quick acceleration at the occasional stoplight, but on pretty much no public road are you going to get to a speed that's close to the c

A choke gets used once upon start, a shift happens dozens of times per drive, it's not the same thing. And no paddle replaces the sheer joy of rowing your own.

It's also likely that treatments where you can actually screen for mutations extensively will be more successful. The issue here is you get a lot of mutations that aren't desirable, if you can grow lots of different cultures and I

They don’t store the password, they store the cyphertext where your single longer password is part of the key. If you wanted to do things that way yourself, my understanding is that you’d be just as secure if you stored the cypher text in a

That's maybe true but in that case also quite incomplete and doesn't actually conflict with my point. Ethnicity is a readout of where that person grew up, those cultural touchtones reflect that you have a bunch of people living in

If the stations were upgraded a bit, I bet the docking stations could charge the E-bikes. That would make it especially useful to have docks, far less labor involved in manually charging bikes, the rider sets it to charge automatically!
