But neither private insurance nor hospitals have any incentive to operate preventatively because insurance can just increase premiums and everybody happily makes more money... Some might observe how that also increases the GDP...

To make a parallel that might work for California or NY. In Europe however there is no single country that is so much better than the others at making money, in the same way as those two. Even countries that didn't enter the EU (Switzerland, Norway) accepted most of the EU regulations because they need some of them.

The UK in that respect already had the sweetest deal of all EU members; and, unlike Switzerland or Norway, actually had a say on the regulations that it had to follow. Plus, they had and have a messy situation due to (non-EU-related and therefore unaffected by Brexit) agreements that the border with Ireland cannot be a customs union, so the only thing a competent national government could do was to tell people they had been duped and promised something impossible. The result would have been a Switzerland- or Norway-like non-membership, with small benefits and less power in the EU.

EDIT: guys, it's sarcastic... since the parent was talking about latency, cooling is something that is even worse in space than latency

The syscall these days is invoked by libc not the program; libc provides access to some symbols that let the program execute rseqs as well.

That said, while I am generally skeptical of these effects, fake news are a real problem that social media has exacerbated.

Furthermore, if looking at the results takes 10 minutes, that same 1 hour task only sees a 3x improvement. And so on.
