> According to official documents and accounts provided by the girl’s parents, the hospital had allowed Qiu’s experimental treatment to proceed under a regulatory provision that does not require approval from national regulators. After the child’s death, the hospital paid a modest fine to a local health authority but Qiu was not publicly sanctioned.
That's not in the headline, but is an important part of the story. Also from the article:
> Seven experts in fields including genetics, virology, and bioethics who reviewed details of the Nature study and the clinical trial for Science and Retraction Watch expressed concern that Qiu and his team downplayed the trial’s risks in describing them to the parents, overlooked safety signals in animal studies, and proceeded even though success was unlikely.
Also not in the headline, but also an important part of the story. Finally:
> The girl’s parents, who requested that Science use pseudonyms for them and their daughter for privacy reasons, have decided to tell her story now because they are angry about what they feel is a lack of accountability by the researchers and the institutions. “Learning the reality of these missing safeguards has fundamentally changed how we now view the entire project,” says the father, a software engineer. He asked that he be called Jason, his wife Linda, and their daughter Mei (Chinese for “beautiful”). “We did not realize how unusual and dangerous many of the arrangements were.”
Also not in the headline, also an important part of the story.
I think what you said is a fair response to me, but I wanted to respond to this specific phrasing.
I don't think Jellyfin was designed around music. I think music was an afterthought added after the fact, and shoehorned into the rest of the experience. And then I think audiobooks in jellyfin are basically an afterthought of an afterthought.
(Again, I'm just responding to clarify if I accidentally conveyed a misconception about Jellyfin's music support)
I think I have an idea of how it might not support audio books. What if audio books had the following issue:
> There is a very noticeable pause between each track that it plays, despite the entire thing being queued.
> That pause is presumably also present when playing music, but no one notices because each song is its own track. Audiobook tracks split in places where a pause would never occur naturally.
It would almost be like it wasn't really built with audio books in mind, but was rather designed around music.
Very few IPOs changed the rules to allow themselves to be incuded in significant indexes far faster than the rules previously allowed, and then slipped below their initial offering.
Basically Nigel Farage won the seat to become a member of parliament representing the Clacton district. Then, there was an ethics scandal, so Nigel Farage resigned his seat, but is running in the special election to fill the vacancy. All the other serious political parties (Greens, Labour, Conservatives, Restore) think this is a stunt and a waste of time, so they aren't running any candidates. So, Nigel Farage is the only "real" politician in the race, and the "silly" candidate with the most support is Count Binface. So the special election ends up being between Farage and Count Binface.
I can get it. I can totally see something being fun if it's 2-10 hours a week, but not fun if it's 40-50 hours a week.
Also very different when you are in control of exactly when you're doing it, you can pause anytime you need to go grab laundry, etc.
Driving/train sims have pretty much zero appeal to me, but I enjoy flight sims a fair amount. I'd never want to make the sacrifices to my life that would be required to be a commercial pilot. Being a personal/hobby pilot is very expensive and quite a bit more dangerous.
> courtesy of modularization, separation of concerns, explicit APIs, and so on.
That's great, but a lot of that is knowledge you have to bring in. You need to be careful with the design of the API boundaries, the interfaces, etc.
Lots of people who are using AI to code projects... don't do that.
And once you get to the point that the AI is having trouble keeping up with the project... it's going to take a lot of work to discover what those module boundaries and interfaces should be.
> but is not outside the realm of something a well-funded police department could do
One officer would absolutely not be able to record on that piece of paper every single license plate that passed through a busy intersection. Not even close.
The number of officers that _would_ be required to do so would absolutely be "outside the realm of possibility" for even a well-funded police department.
That's why flock is different. It's a level of scale that was previously—despite your assertions—impossible.
Yea, I think a better option would be to make fines proportional to income, and then give a flat hourly rate that you can earn for fines from community service as an option
I agree with everything, other than the two caveats below:
> Strike pardon power;
I'd go slightly narrower. I think pardons and clemency are a good thing to have in the system. I think we can put reasonable guardrails around it
- Require pardons to be published to a public register to be effective
- Allow a 2/3 vote of both chambers of congress to veto a pardon within 90 days
- Disallow pardons in the final year of the term
- Explicitly affirm that Congress can make bribery and other forms of direct/indirect quid-pro-quos for a pardon illegal
> Congress may create independent agencies with charters of up to 25 years.
I think we should also create room for Congress to create rule-making agencies that exist within the Congressional branch.
Or, like in Larry Niven's Ringworld, these kinds of stochastic LLM tools will just help screen for candidates with the most luck. Maybe it's not such a bad thing to hire the luckiest candidate.
The reason I'm going to buy a Steam Machine instead of building a computer is the verified program.
I've absolutely loved being able to check a store listing page and immediately know if a game will run well on the Steam Deck. Having the same program for a higher end target would be really nice for me.
Also, getting the CEC right is really valuable for me. If I'm building a computer there's no chance I am going to be able to get it to play nice with the TV using just the controller.
That's a Big Fucking Deal, and is absolutely a significant part of the story.
Was that in the headline?
