everyone communicates differently

Yes, and those differences have an intrinsic value. As an example, my comment's "cover" communicates my discontent and frustration with "AI tone". As a matter of fact, my "cover" here became the discussion itself. Thus, my comment's "cover" is not actually a cover but a part of the communication. In contrast, the "AI tone" is just a cover to make a writing look superficially more professional without adding any value to the communicated idea or emotion.

Those firms have no say over which treatments are preferred on which patients in single-payer health systems. Actually, it is the exact opposite. When there is a single payer, they can haggle on behalf of the entire population so they have huge leverage over the treatment costs. The government can simply say "You either sell at the price that I want, or lose access to the entire market in this country.". That's why American drugs can be 10-100x more expensive than the rest of the world.

From my understanding of USA as a foreigner, tax dollars are for corporate bailouts and military.

The big-medicine industrial complex is always trying to get you to have worse health so they can maximize how much they bill you when you finally break.

Ok, if this is the argument that you want to use, here is a counterargument that completely destroys your viewpoint.

Most civilized countries don't bill the patient, and it is entirely funded by either taxes or mandatory public insurance. So just like how it is in "big-medicine industrial complex's" best interest to maximize profits, it is in the health system's best interest to lower cost. So if whole-body scans for otherwise healthy (as in no symptoms) people means less profit for those companies, it means less cost for the health system, which would mean they would be promoting (or even requiring) whole-body scans. MRI machines are much cheaper than doctors.

judge content not by its cover and think

If we are supposed to not judge the content by its cover, then don't put a cover on it. It's that simple. AI adds no value to the content, just some noise that makes it harder to reach the actual information/emotion.

Yes and no. Some are just way overconfident in their knowledge of medicine and human body, while it is miniscule compared to the average physician's. Medicine is a field much larger than people realize. It is easy to think you know a lot when you don't even know how much you are missing.

Having a reason doesn't make it any less dangerous though.

That is relatively benign compared to what I've seen before. I normally refrain from repeating misinformation, even for debunking it but I will make an exception (or two). I've seen comments ranging from "salt intake doesn't increase blood pressure because you pee what you don't need" to "blood glucose levels aren't good for diagnosing diabetes".

Edit: OK, that's not really a "range". I have no idea why I phrased it like that. Both are very dangerous statements that can be life threatening if the wrong person believes it. I just hope that comment didn't cause any diabetic ketoacidosis cases.

I assume you are American? I find it sad that a doctor has any incentive other than providing their patients with the best care possible.

Medical doctor here. Please don't get health advice from hn comments. As a matter of fact, I advice against reading anything about health on hn, as the risks of dangerous misinformation far outweigh any useful information you might learn here.

similar niche genres of games have managed to mostly ignore each other

That's only because they are only "similar" on the surface. It feels like saying "football, volleyball and basketball are similar" just because they are all team games played with a ball.

I doubt anyone who is too tight on cash that they have to think about the electricity cost of a home server can afford a Mac.

the process of generating the cards contributes substantially to the learning and memory formation.

How is creating a card anything different than reviewing the card once? Anki is a long term tool, writing something down once isn't. The time spent creating cards is better spent on doing more reviews.

Then you are deliberately handicapping yourself, this isn't something you can blame on the OS.

The classic "You're holding it wrong" defense. Especially when the alternatives don't have this problem.

It does if you use SIGHUP.

they are using SNI filtering as well

This is surprisingly easy to beat using very funny methods, like splitting the request in the middle of SNI, or sending a request with a low TTL to an unblocked website first which gets dropped then repeating it to the correct SNI.

There are more methods all of which I find very funny for some reason. You can use GoodbyeDPI on Windows and zapret on Linux.

Tumors excreting chemicals to prevent destruction doesn’t sound like DNA damage, that sounds like evolution.

One cell's DNA damage is another cell's evolution.

I'm assuming they are using LLMs for translation, which makes this mistake as it already knows about "vegetative electron microscopy".

Slightly (or very) off topic, but I think it fits so I will write what I feel about people talking about their AI experiences. Feel free to ignore my opinion. I just wanted to know if there is anyone who feels the same way.

Listening to someone talk about "their chat with ChatGPT" etc. feels very annoying. It's like they are explaining a dream they had in detail but even less informative or useful because a dream might suggest something about their state of mind. However, content like this (to be fair, this specific one isn't that annoying to me especially compared to "AI said this and that" kind of stuff) has absolutely no constructive value (to me) and feels almost schizophrenic. Maybe I feel this way because people around me, unlike the average HN user's social circle, have only superficial idea about how AI works but are very interested in using it.

Inside of a stomach basically. A polypoid lesion, which I can't tell apart the exact diagnosis but the filename suggests is a neuroendocrine tumor.

You've disabled the option to see it. Your data is still being collected.

The young are paying into a system that is mostly used by the old.

Another perspective: the young are paying into a system that they will mostly use when they are old. The old are using a system they paid into when they were young.

the lens has a 30° FOV, but I can tell you that the perceived one was less. One of the reasons is that these lenses are made to show full FOV when they are worn on the eye, but of course, I could not do this test, so my perceived FOV with the lens close to the eye was probably just in the range 10-20°.

Yes. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF

You basically let your guest OS use your GPU instead of the host.

I think monitors are like headphones. Unless you actually try the "better" ones, you don't have a clue what you're missing. I know because I had been saying "Dual 1080p 24" is all I will ever need." for a long time until I got a 4K 50". Now I can't imagine going back.

May I ask at what configuration? I'm assuming at least one is vertical because I can't think of a way to set 2 43" monitors horizontally without breaking my neck.

For 1 and 2, I would say it totally boils down to personal preference an distance/size ratio. For 3, again, distance to the screen matters a lot.

The 4th one I've seen the most heated discussions about. In my opinion, highest you can afford (both money-wise and computational power-wise) is the most useful resolution. Even if you can't distinguish the individual pixels (aka screen door effect) aliasing is still an issue.

If you are on Linux, you can divide the entire screen into multiple virtual monitors and share only one of them. This has the benefit of giving you "private" monitors what won't be shared.

Another option could be to temporarily lower the resolution.

I use a 50" 4K TV as my monitor. It's mounted on a long TV mount that can bend at 3 points, one near the wall, one near the TV and one in the middle. Gives me great freedom. One warning to people who want to do the same: make sure your mount has a way to rotate (around the screen's surface normal) the TV as the weight of it will make it sag.
