People in #Indianapolis, IN held a demonstration in front of Elevance Health yesterday. Holding a banner reading, "Deny, Defend, Despose, Healthcare 4 All."

"Today, we protest against Elevance Health not in its role as a distinct actor in the health insurance market, a single agent in the hall of mirrors of contemporary capitalism. Elevance operates in just the same manner as UHC in the way it ranks bodies and judges some to be worthy of care and the rest simply not worth the time or effort. In this manner the only difference between the two is a matter of degrees in subdomains. We believe it is necessary to oppose this system of broad ranking of life expectancies in an age of depreciating life expectations. It is necessary as a precondition to a life worth living.

We believe that everyone is worthy of care. We believe that everyone deserves access to a healthy life according to their own standards. Both Elevance and UHC stand as barriers to this possibility. This is why we oppose them."

Those who said you can't gaming on Linux have been living under a rock a couple of years or just trolling for attention. I'm well aware that a very few games with "anti-cheat" mechanism doesn't run on Linux, but there's a lot of games do run via Proton in Steam. So far any games I've tried runs very well under Linux :)

In a functioning democracy with a functioning media, this would be pretty much the only thing discussed on every Sunday show tomorrow.

But in a Gilded Age with a Gilded Media, all the incentives are asswardly backward.

my understanding is that code LLMs are a lot like machine translation: if you want your product to actually be good, you'll have to spend more time checking the machine's output for subtle errors than you would've spent just doing the work yourself

The article doesn't mention neutron stars. Those exotic particles need very high energies like shortly after the big bang.

It doesn't, but hyperons are theorised to exist more stably in neutron stars
