Meh, that's all such a theater. LE can ask anyone to insert an "JS exploit", especially into the government meteo service. It will then be nicely safely and securely served to you via HTTPS :) Of course, enabled specially for your IP address so that noone else gets any clue.
edit: and everyone is voluntarily mitming via cloudflare anyway..it's all such a farce
Even in human medicine some of the things on the "Do not do" guidance are diagnostic steps which are pointless because you will always do the same thing next regardless.
A bunch of them are for infant minor injury where it's like don't do an X-ray. If you can see a break on the image you'd do A, but if you can't you'd figure the break might be too small to show up and do A anyway. Kids don't need more radiation, just do A immediately without requesting an X-ray.
I have wondered if my cancer diagnosis is at the edge of this case. There's a step where they do a needle biopsy. But, as far as I can tell that biopsy always either says "Cancer" or "Don't know" and I'm not sure what else they'd do for "Not sure" beyond the next step in the cancer diagnosis...
There's also the cases where you don't do the test because you do not want to do the next step. E.g. the test results would indicate a need for a very invasive surgery or aggressive medical treatment, but you are 80 years old and you don't want to spend your remaining time recovering from surgery or sick from side-effects.
Yeah, it went fine. I had Hodgkins, like 20+ years ago, it's very curable and (I didn't know at the time) occurs relatively often in young men. They fixed it. It's fun because I'm a walking example of why universal healthcare makes sense - even economic sense. I was a broke student, if healthcare cost money there's no way I'd have even gone to a doctor to ask about my weird symptoms - they weren't even really annoying, just it seemed like it's something doctors should check. If it cost money I'd have waited until I was in serious pain, at which point it's more likely they can't fix it or that if they can fix it the fix is really drastic.
I didn't stay a broke student. I got a job, bought a home, I became a productive (tax revenue generating) citizen, instead of a corpse as would happen with no healthcare.
Mostly swollen lymph nodes, which is also associated with: Any infection (even one you didn't notice along with common colds). But I noticed they had stayed like that for a while, which I thought was odd. It is odd, turns out it can mean you have Cancer. Of your lymphatic system.
True but as the vet in the article states she couldn’t be sure that the extent of the problem was just the corn cob without an x-ray so to me it would seem more logical to take the x-ray once you’ve decided on surgery.
Our cat had follow-up x-rays after radiation treatment for a thymoma. Cost for the 3-view X-rays was $605.00, and the consult with the radiologist was $189.00. Bay Area, but still...
Not really good. I quit my FAANG job just before the layoffs started (If only I had known...) to pursue a SaaS project. I was the top performer in the team back then. I recently reached out to my manager about getting back into the team but the hiring freeze is still very much ongoing and going to last atleast 6 more months based on his feedback.
I don't care if it has support of 80% Indians. And even you know that's objectively not true. Any party which does not care about democratic principles is a shithole party.
It would be a whole lot better if people on HN spend their time reading news and garnering information rather than vomiting their half-baked knowledge and immaturely formed opinions on issues they have no idea about.
Ok, Not 80%, but 79% percent! You actually think a party that doesn't care about democratic principles can gain so much popularity, that too in the largest democracy in the world?
All media outlets are biased. The point is to extract the facts and not get swayed by biases. No matter which news outlet you go to, you'll still see the same facts, but the opinions may differ.
HN's moderation does tend to kick in, though not immediately. And on topics in which there is specific expertise comments can be gold.
I'm not suggesting that happens all the time, or even most of it. But relative to other online discussions it does quite well.
The next step up would probably require limited access and verified qualifications. Or something along the lines of StackExchange (which does, yes, have its own problems).

I am half expecting someone to come up and say it goes against their freedom of speech. No, but I like StackExchange, it provides helpful information many a times. How many times have I visited HN if I wanted to know something versus how many times [...] StackExchange. There's definitely value there even for those not participating, but it takes away the back-and-forth of a discussion.
Even people who don't have the qualifications on paper but who have done sufficient research can add good content.
The problem is people disparage and speak in a condescending way under the pretext of facts, which makes it look legitimate, but there's racism and bigotry hiding underneath. I think people need to be more selective and careful with their usage of words if they want to maintain a scientific decorum, and not politicize matters.
One trope I've been mulling over for a while is that of the "marketplace of ideas", which is literally baked into US jurisprudence.
So far as I've been able to trace the origins, it's actually an adaptation of free-market ideology and promotion, and was likely suggested to Oliver Wendell Holmes by Francis Wrigley Hirst, former editor of The Economist, a publication literally founded to promote free-market ideals.[1][2]
But ... is a marketplace really the forum in which ideas are best formed and developed? Or even transmitted? Because ... my understanding is that this takes place far more often in studies, libraries, workshops, laboratories, and academies. Usually amongst a small set of people qualified in the task they are undertaking. Yes, there's often correspondence amongst that group, and there may be distributed work or teams. But one thing it distinctly is not is the absolute hubbub and all-comers-invited nature of the marketplace.
I've yet to see a full critique of the notion, though Jill Gordon's "John Stuart Mill and 'The Marketplace of Ideas'" comes quite close. Among other points, she makes clear that Mill never actually used the phrase, and had some sharp concerns with what are now key elements of it.
Ultimately, markets reward characteristics which are strongly at odds with information in various ways. This appears both in how markets for information goods are tremendously skewed and have enormous deadweight losses (actively impeding access to information to virtually all), but also in what types of information are promoted and advantaged by marketplaces --- rarely that which has a strong truth valance, or which stands against orthodoxies.
(Markets aren't the only structures which stand against information, but given that they're often portrayed as the essence of informational genesis, the conflict is highly notable.)

How is "illegal" and "no longer considered legal tender" different?
Regardless of the intentions, I don't see how banning people from using currency notes that they legally owned is not dictatorial. Why is using cash deemed guilty before even having any evidence.
