Docker was getting us pretty close to this until the M1 Macs came out and our Intel CPU presumptions blew up.

> The web is increasingly turning into closed platform unindexable silos. So it is the quality of the open web itself that has been declining, and search is just reflection of that. LLM doesn't solve that, unless the LLM has access

It's not so much don't sell gas as "don't lower your price below x". If enough gas stations comply, you won't have an option less than x. But it would seem to make the returns from not complying higher, as you

I'm never giving up on this as an issue. You don't just have to go up to the counter and ask and wait behind all of the people getting prescriptions filled- you get rate limited, never mind if you are buying it for a whole family,

I think breaking the hold of the AMA on things like residency slots that has caused physician shortages. Increasing supply should eventually have an effect on wages. We could also move to 5 or 6 year degrees for doctors, like Ireland, inste

The simple answer here is to just allow us to buy it in other countries to get around the price discrimination.

That doesn't save much money. You have to attack the costs. The rest of the world is not on single payer, you know?

Can you read? That's literally what I said. (with the exception of insurance, which is just a reflection of the prices charged by providers and drug companies)

I guess that wasn't one of the many cases that I was referring to, where, when given a supply budget, the union immediately claimed it was too small. It was increased, they still claimed it was too small and wanted more. You'll n

Well, Wichita Kansas is maybe the biggest one? You can rent a place there for 500/month. Here's the thing though- if you raise wages, the prices for the finite quantities of housing get bid up. The goal should be bringing the cost

They do in many cases, it doesn't help because it's such an easy PR story. They just ask for more. The objective can never be "stop this group from wanting more money" because human desire is infinite.

The idea that a government pension should sustain you from 50 onwards is not a good one.

by mattmcknight 3y ago
Retiring at 51 after a 30 year role is not conducive to survival on the pension.

It's not a revolving door though. People aren't going back into the military from contractor roles.

by mattmcknight 3y ago
Yes, but ending the ability of government employees who are forced to retire to seek employment in their field of expertise is not a good solution to corruption.

You get to Orlando city center...and there's not much to do, it's very tiny part of a low density city. There is a bus terminal and an Amtrak station. I did get around town on the city busses pretty well. Pretty easy to catch a sh

Is there any software out there detecting an unusual volume of file encryption activities from a process that could indicate it is ransomware?

Absolutely not true. They used to picket the store where I worked because we weren't union. It was so annoying.

Exactly. Preventing the use of some information for training data is like saying we can't go to the gallery or library to see what prior art looks like. Creativity is just having a higher temperature setting and selecting items that tr

I think the over/under representation stuff is suspect. If you want to start with the right candidate population, it is not all US university students. It is better to start with the population of students that scored over 1500 on the

I find index funds are nearly decoupled from the fundamentals except for the occasional adds/subtracts from the index. They might be optimal for the individual investor, but are adding so much noise to the price signal for the individu

I don't think having "drivers spend as much of their shift as they can driving clients" is the best objective function. It seems like you should want to get customers to their destinations as quickly as possible, not have car
