Bad intellectual property protections and implied spyware.

All I have to say is LOL to holistic admissions.

Use standardized testing. We cannot power the future with feels, we need STEM grads.

> Provide a tightly scoped technical spec to Codex as a task, and ask for 3x solutions.

I'm using a personal license and Codex. What does this cost to generate 3x solutions as a starting point?

Even in simple coding I have been doing, I notice Codex will burn through my Open AI subscription rather fast.

> Coal is neither cheap nor abundant in Ireland.

But it is abundant in Russia, Ukraine, Germany, and Poland. Also, there is nuclear power in France.

However, Russia and Ukraine are at war. Germany is willing to go green and destroy itself. EU hates Poland and other east European countries. And EU and the rest of the world can't disassociate nuclear power with weapons.

So I guess EU can enjoy their limited and expensive green energy.

> but from an outsider America has become one mouthpiece

Really? As a naturalized American I see diversity in the USA's media. Do you have an example?

From what I see, there are two big voices in the media politically.

> rarely do I see dissenting voices in the media

Again, we need an example. I see the official line from the current party in power, and the counter arguements from the mainstream media as a whole. The current party only has a media output from very few mainstream sources.

> create a fair international market and let winners win.

Why? It's selfish, but since the US and EU sent jobs out to India and China. India and China, have created protections that make getting those jobs back nearly impossible short of stopping payments. At the same time, these countries have huge trading imbalances (see FR complaining that their CN trade imbalance is untenable) and have become the defacto for cheap labor.

In the cobol world, lots of highly paid senior consultants, who come in and out of retirement to support systems.

Other than that, I am guessing junior roles will move offshore to supply the body shops where the corporate IT work has been going.

Does the public have claim on all of these artists' art?

They all are now involuntary patreons.

> What NPM should do if they really give a shit is start requiring 2FA to publish.

How does 2FA prevent malware? Anyone can get a phone number to receive a text or add an authenticator to their phone.

I would argue a subscrption model for 1 EUR/month would be better. The money received could pay for certification of packages and the credit card on file can leverage the security of the payments system.

> In 10 years where do the senior dev's come from?

From company interns. Internships won't go away, there will just be less of them. For example, some companies will turn down interns because they do not have the time to train them due to project load.

With AI, now employed developers can be picky on whether or not to take on interns.

> supply chain attacks

You all really need to stop using this term when it comes to OSS. Supply chain implies a relationship, none of these companies or developers have a relationship with the creators other than including their packages.

Call it something like "free code attacks" or "hobbyist code attacks."

Wow. First time hearing about Garnet. MS should package and deploy it as a service in the Azure SAAS offerings.

Remove the stigma of mental illness and new drugs are not really needs. The current class of drugs are excellent at controlling psychosis.

Sure there are side effects, but in this case the side effects are better than the psychotic behavior and breakdown of the patients.

> but I wonder if it's really a "disease"

Not a disease but a real illness, with no cure but treatment like cancer.

Even with effective treatment, sometimes the psychosis wins, and the patient can backslide into full blown illness.

> longer lasting injectable is often recommended over daily oral meds

Both are recommended. Why? Daily meds are not only effective, but remind the patient that they have an illness that needs daily maintenance, it makes them involved in the treatment. Long acting injectables are added monthly to prevent backslides in case the patient forgets or does not want to take their medicine.

Drugs become generic eventually and costs come down.

Zyprexa, which was mentioned in the article, is almost always prescribed as generic Olanzapine. Cost as of 2024 for generic - 9 USD, brand name 476 USD.

> $20k per year for a brand new drug

The thing is you don't even need this new drug, from the article "Risperdal and Zyprexa" are very effective antipsychotics. Even more effective when combined with a long acting to prevent backslide from missed does.

Who cares about the TD, tremors, etc. when that patient can rejoin society? Really what needs to change is reopen US mental hospitals to get these patients treatment and end the stigma around mentally illness.

> The only way to do this is to give the person a place to live. Ensure the person has healthy and decent food. This will require time and treatment so build up a new sense of safety.

> Once achieved treatment for schizophrenia could start with the drug and be closely monitored by professionals.

At least for mental illness, the US state run mental hospitals should be reopened to put the mentally ill under care, monitoring, and to get them back on medicine.

Modern psychiatric medicine could reverse the issues that used to stigmatize the mentally ill.
