I've heard even the plain old insulin is significantly more expensive in US compared to Europe.

Sounds like a dark pattern to push people towards express. If the train changes how fast it moves or where it stops, that's their problem. The passengers should be allowed to get off at the nearest stop to their original destination, and any potential difference in fares should be eaten by the operator

I don't understand how this is possible. Trains are single track in most subways and metros, and definitely do not stop before an already waiting train.

I think the implication is that the time between two trains was little more than the time it took to walk along the whole platform, which the friend still had to do after getting off, plus someone familiar with the stations not needing time to orient themselves and find the intended exit.

they climbed on the last car of the first train

i ran down the platform and, without any other waiting, climbed on the first car of the next train

they got off the last car of the first train and started to walk in the same direction as the train. while they were walking, the first car of the next train, me, rolled well past them before stopping.


Senior ICs tend to commit relatively unfrequently compared to junior ICs who keep pumping tickets.


Not in my experience, as long as we are talking about ICs.


This is a bigger problem than it looks like at first glance. For isecases where llm + tool calls make more sense compared to say llm assisted codegen, figuring out the tool arguments is nontrivial. Where it is relatively easy I think codegen is a better option wrt amortised running costs


this is a great point, ty.

in my mind the biggest difference is llms that are invoked during a workflow, and llms that are invoked when _creating_ code (codegen).

for the former, tools could be well defined till they are small in number, but at some point, the system needs to examine a library of tools, understand how to call it and integrate it, and at its peak, even create new tools to talk to systems not already present in that library (codegen).


Popup on app open that warns app is sideloaded?

There are simpler and more usable options that are more defensible than what they do today.


> capitalism is good for the population and not evil

This is the biggest lie that we keep telling ourselves. Capitalism is destroying the only place in the universe we can survive, and with the absurdly unequal wealth distribution and centralisation it enables, has caused more collective misery than any other idea in human history, in my opinion.


I agree and piling on. Capitalism is good for those with capital, the wealthy few. Then wonder where they got the capital, and mostly it's something environmentally bad, like the extraction industry such as coal and oil.


if you are commenting on this website you almost definitely fit the definition of the “wealthy few”.


It would if the clinic is a controlled setting and they can control when the nursing shift begins.


TBH the critique is completely valid when cursor advertised shitty code on their homepage.


IP addresses are 4 bytes, each in the range 0-255. In binary bits xyz would be equivalent to decimal x2^2+y2+z. Similarly, bytes abc would be equivalent to decimal a256^2+b256+c.

IP address p.q.r.s is decimal p256^3+q256^2+r*256+s.
