<p>> one of the chief complaints about policing over the last couple years has been the lack of traffic enforcement.<p>Which traffic enforcement though?<p>I really do not like the fact that lefts on red are not enforced. I have numerous times seen people run a red-red light infront of a cop car with no enforcement.<p>That said, people going 35 in a 30? Like I care. People weaving in between lanes? Yeah that seems much more dangerous.</p>

<p>Except they only won because UK was too busy spending money on a way to stop the French.<p>Like 1812 when the Brits weren't busy with the French they easily came in and burnt the US capital as punishment for burning the Canadian one. It's not that the British army suddenly got a lot stronger; they just weren't busy fighting on two continents.<p>That said, civil disobedience is largely pointless. We're in a capitalistic society so money is the name of the game. Rosa Parks did shit-all; it was the boycott of the bus system for 9 months that made the buses cave.</p>

<p>Eh, the only way to secure your Rust programs it the technique not described in the article.<p>Vendor your dependencies. Download the source and serve it via your own repository (ex. [1]). For dependencies that you feel should be part of the "Standard Library" (i.e. crates developed by the Rust team but not included into std) don't bother to audit them. For the other sources, read the code and decide if it's safe.<p>I'm honestly starting to regret not starting a company like 7 years ago where all I do is read OSS code and host libraries I've audited (for a fee to the end-user of course). This was more relevant for USG type work where using code sourced from an American is materially different than code sourced from non-American.<p>[1]: <a href="https://docs.gitea.com/usage/packages/cargo" rel="nofollow">https://docs.gitea.com/usage/packages/cargo</a></p>

<p>No because the title is using the word "new jobs".<p>If there's 100 men and 100 women employed and 100 women get fired then you have an equal number of "newly" employed people (0).<p>If there's 100 men and 50 working women and you fire 100 men and hire 50 women then 100% of the new jobs went to Women. Same is if you didn't fire anybody and just hired 50 women.</p>

<p>Isn't it only a question of marketing?<p>There's only so many lumberjacks needed in an economy. Sure you can depress the wages for awhile but there's still a limit.<p>So you need Men do to something else and the way you do that is with marketing (and also with Men being unemployed until they accept a nursing job).</p>

<p>Is this even relevant to their post?<p>The article is pretty clear, Women are getting most of the new jobs because they're in fields that Men largely don't try to enter (ex. Teaching).<p>Like whats the big initiative to increase the amount of Women with a Masters of Education? I've heard of a bunch for STEM but Men still dominate that field but that field is growing slower than other Women dominated ones so it's a non-sequitor.</p>

<p>IIUC, the difference (for USG) of Medicare vs Medicare Advantage is that Medicare subsidizes the cost of a procedure done by a provider while Medicare Advantage (MA) pays a fixed rate per treatment to an insurer.<p>So if the MA rate is less than the provider changes then the insurer is highly incentivized to deny you coverage. While for Medicare you'd have a higher co-pay.<p>This also leads to scenarios where MA insurers upcode patients so that the treatment is at a higher rate [1]. (ex. Marking patients as recovering drug addicts when prescribing opioids to get both money from both counseling and the opioid treatment).<p>[1]: <a href="https://www.healthcaredive.com/news/unitedhealth-grassley-medicare-advantage-investigation/809377/" rel="nofollow">https://www.healthcaredive.com/news/unitedhealth-grassley-me...</a></p>

<p>> Or you can put code in different package and guard internal package cohesiveness and coupling a bit and use well defined interfaces to call a functions through.<p>While I do think actual microservices are over-kill. I don't think I've seen code anywhere that survives multiple years where somebody doesn't use internal state of another package. Like if you don't force people to use a hard barrier (i.e. HTTP) then there's going to be workarounds.</p>
