My experiences broadly support your conclusions. However, your argument focuses on the routine intake instead of any listening part. The fact that the doctor measures height, weight, temperature, and blood pressure on intake and then asks a

Useless data?? There is a massive revenue stream that says this is completely off base. The data they have is already extremely valuable.

Lots of spot on comments here. They have 35% relationship terminations over 15 years and are just now wondering why? No way. This is just a new spin on something they have already believed. An interesting post would include exploratory data

> … for essentially arbitrary reasons and not due to the economic fundamentals … When I think about the impact of the war on Iran, it’s pretty clearly affecting “economic fundamentals”. So what are you talking about?

There are special laws made to protect the dealer's position. This is an exception not the rule. You should justify why it is improving price (or something ) for consumers if you want to hold it up as an example.

For you, simply listing the author of the post is enough to discard it. Not everyone is that well informed, so it would be helpful for you to add another sentence explaining why this author has no credibility with you.

I once heard a lecture by a (famous) college professor who talked about the large numbers of students who failed (college) Algebra 1. His argument was: you cannot memorize algebra, you have to understand. Students who are failing in college

Definitely. This breaks HN guidelines for the title. I don’t know where you read to find the conclusion that the editorialized title claims. What is “curation” anyway? No kidding, Kodak curated the collection. The HN title is either unsubst

Sure, but I deliberately choose my grocery store to increase the probability of having an actually skilled cashier. And I’ve never had a skilled bagger, including excellent cashiers. Doing it right is worth some of my time.

I think: s/stagnated/saturated/ Edit: also, that demand pressure is going to be applied constantly; there isn’t going to be a shock, it’s just going to keep prices high longer.

I have to say, it isn't very clear this really happened. Reads like fiction or magic.

Note for the skeptic: this cites Knuth, Volume II, writes out the IEEE edge cases, and optimizes.

Do the tools built on this understand dplyr pipelines and columns in the data frames appearing as bare variables in the code? If so, I’m really impressed. R does some unusual stuff.

Re: price point HN readers who can write a console game before bedtime are not the target audience. A handheld device that Just Works and creates an authentic experience is worth a lot. For a college class, a $200 textbook isn’t out of line

Ill-thought out logic. The company that deployed the LLM is lying to you. The people who made that decision are the ones who are culpable. We both agree that it’s terrible. I think it’s important to have an enforcement mechanism to forc
