Despite this, given that health care prices in the USA continue to accelerate from relentless government interference and regulation, perhaps if the deterministic side of things could be figured out, we could monumentally decrease cost and

Going to a probabilistic system for something that can/should be deterministic sets off a lot of red flags. I’ve worked medical software packages, specifically a drug interaction checker for hospitals. The system cannot be written like

One of rare instances I'll say it: make owning a second home a major tax liability and 0 takes breaks for building or ownership. Not that because "we have a right to housing" or other catchphrases, but because getting rid of

Considering GM is going headfirst the other direction, along with removing carplay support, I'll be looking for a something else. Especially a "disconnected vehicle" at some point where it includes no cell interface or one th

The whole thing is so weird; both sides are coy. Venezuela is playing the usual card about America trying to seize oil; US playing usual card about narcotics. You can believe what you want, or buy into whatever mainstream narrative you want

I think the python counterexample speaks a lot. A lot of languages "hide" their footprint in /usr/local or in a venv somewhere; out of sight, out of mind. The JVM installs cleanly and is self contained, but any artifacts

I had a 10am international flight to the US out of Munich. I boarded the train at the central station at 7am. At 8:15 they dropped us off several stops away from the airport, claiming this train could not continue because it was so delayed.

eSim is fine, SMS "authentication" is once again the f#?*ing problem. Its going to take congressional action before we can get rid of this menace. All we're doing is half-ass offloading credit and identity checks to cellphone

Nice heatsink on that puppy. We had to throw some cooling fans on our X540-T2's. Literal finger burn if you touch and it was melting some nearby 3d printed components. Hopefully these are significantly more efficient.

Mock is effective when developers keep applications at 4-5 layers deep (and honestly, you don't need more than that 97% of the time: initiators, controllers, services, transports, and cross cutting concerns). The problem is, engineers

Agree, If you're caught running with a bag from a plane (as we've seen on video): zero eligibility for "survivor benefits", $50,000 fine for endangerment, plus 100% liability for any injuries of those behind you.
