That is for a specific type of dental surgery. Also the failure does not mean the patient dies. It means allergic reactions, second operation requires, fractured tooth etc. To give you an example in some cases the bone is so weak that they have to use a Cow's bone marrow to fill it. In some people the body rejects this and hence another surgery is required where a person's hip bone marrow is used.

cost of meat/plant version = real cost of producing - subsidies

Since subsidies in meat version are bigger, end result can be cheaper despite having higher "real" cost.
The contract language is not Ethereum. Ethereum is the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) which runs bytecode. Any language can be used to produce that bytecode. Solidity, the language being criticised as overly complex, is not part of Ethereum, and can be replaced without a change in the underlying consensus.

> Ground chuck roast is heavily subsidized; it would be surprising if any fake meat product could actually rival the energy and water costs needed to raise and process beef.

Substitutes have much lower growing costs in energy and water, but so far also much higher processing costs. Not too surprised that these might end up offsetting each other.

If you want plants to be efficient food sources, the best approach is not to try to make them imitate meat. Making them imitate meat is an inefficient use of plants.

Interesting topic. Not a vegetarian here, but when I'm eating outside the home I'll often act as one (no chicken/red meat. Fish/seafood acceptable but I'm not adventurous. Egg dairy okay). I went to a local chain restaurant that opened in a nearby shopping center that serves meat substitute. It's called lord of the fries (does this exist in other countries?). They dont specify on their website what substitute they use. My views (tried in burger form):

- Beef. This was terrible. Texture was best described as processed mush. Nothing like beef, even the processed type. The taste was worse. it was for some reason sweet. Didn't feel like I was eating beef at all. You'd fool no one with this. The appearance was convincing, but thats all the praise I had for it.

- Chicken: Actually pretty good. Friend was convinced it was real. It did taste pretty good, actually a little milder than 'real' chicken and without the sometimes unpleasant strong chicken-y taste (my opinion, im referring to the slight offputting taste that old/non-fresh chicken sometimes has). So i could definitely see the utility in this. It still didn't feel indinstinguishable, if you were paying attention I think you can tell the difference. Arbitrarily i'd give it a 90% there.

I havent seen the brands other posters discussed in my supermarket (Australia here). I wonder if meat substitutes are more of an American thing?

A point I wanted to bring up was safety. The experimental nature of these substitutes leaves me feeling a bit uneasy. The primary reason I never went back to the above discussed food outlet despite liking their fake-chicken was because I am unsure what is really inside it. Yes I know its vegetable based. My guess is soy protein? But how do I know that it's safe, for example too much soy milk has been shown to have increased estrogen like hormone and potentially a risk factor for cancers in females, and altered hormonal profile in males. Ideally I'd like to eat something that's been tested and through a strict approval process (treated like a pharmaceutical would get my confidence) to make sure I'm not shooting myself in the foot later. Yes I'm aware the verdict currently out on red meat isn't great either. But between chosing the devil I know vs the devil I don't know, i'd rather know what I'm getting myself into. Interested to hear what others think about this. I admit I'm not as knowledgeable with the regulatory processes for these things. I inherently dont trust companies on face value (they have too much conflict of interest, see tobacco companies or even meat companies for example). I've kept myself basically informed via documentaries, but so far it feels like we're all in an experimental phase.

I sorta agree with you, and have been cutting back on where I give (and now only work with places I trust and visit personally). But coming back to the nurse example, I could volunteer my time to be with the kids, use my very basic carpentry skills to do maybe a bed or two OR, I can do contract work for a few days and give enough that it pays for that nurse's salary. What do you think is best? Me spend 5 days doing 2-3 beds/playing with the kids or me working 5 days and with that money be able to pay for 10 beds + a nurse's salary at a worthwhile charity??

From what I've previously read, the challenge isn't creating meat-alternatives that taste and smell like meat. The challenge is recreating the texture of meat.
The "Romanian" hacker whose command of the Romanian language is suspect:

https://motherboard.vice.com/read/dnc-hacker-guccifer-20-int...
At social situations (where pollination between meat eaters and vegetarians occurs), that would make the appeal even tougher. Eating meat then becomes a way of showing off financial status, even more than it already is ("we grilled up this real nice cut of blah blah").

I say this as a vegetarian, but I'm having a hard time seeing cost being a real advantage for imitation meat. It seems like more of a first world problem - if one cannot afford meat, they're better off spending resources on replacing its nutritional value rather than its taste.

I don't follow how "these things are macros under the covers" translates to "i need to keep more stuff in my head"

And the argument that "the community discourages macros" isn't particularly compelling, but for whatever reason it has worked well. People seem to use them rarely, and when they are used they're reasonably straight forward. I've been using elixir for a couple years now, and I haven't run into many cases where macros ended up confusing me as a reader.

On the contrary, I stumble over the more esoteric "discouraged by the community" features in scala literally every day.

Relying on the community to exercise restraint with the powerful parts of the language is a huge gamble, but it has worked well in the elixir community.
elixir looks awesome, but there's no need to overstate its case - tons of languages really cared about beautiful code and a pleasant ecosystem. clojure was perhaps the best in that respect; there was a lot of effort made to have consistent and pretty libraries. f# seems like it's shaping up nicely too, though it still has some rough edges (but then again, so does ruby!). pyret does "beautiful code" even better than ruby does; if it had a good command line implementation and ecosystem it might have been my new favourite scripting and general-purpose language by now. elm puts a lot of love and effort into both the language and the libraries, and in particular has some of the most user-friendly error messages i've ever seen. and that's just the languages i'm familiar with; i'm sure others can chime in with lots more.

From a marketing perspective, I'd suggest the way to shift perceptions would be to run taste test challenges similar to the ones Pepsi ran back in the day. If the burgers are as close to meat versions as they say then it could be good to have people who are reluctant to try it to at least give it a go. Even if they can still tell the difference, the difficulty in telling them apart may be enough to change the perception of the product.

To provide a counter point, I feel that I learned a lot by reading the code of the Java standard library and stepping through its code. Especially in light of excessive indirection, reflection and others that were ironically created to produce "easier to read" code, I think it can be really helpful to see what the code is actially doing.

I can't relate to the argument of the teacher. To me, "understanding" a device means to be confident in what actions to the device will result in what consequences - and what internal processes are responsible for it. I'd think getting as much feedback as possible on your commands can only be helpful for that - and forbidding a debugger seems to me like artificially hiding what is "really" happening and denying feedback that would be readily available.

>[D]o Lightning's channels only reduce on-chain transaction volume in the case of recurring payments (eg subscriptions)?

Payment channels and consequently the Lightning Network (LN), assuming a sufficiently connection routing network (the people you want to pay are connected to the LN), reduce the volume of any amount of transactions. LN has the best cost advantage for use cases when the transaction volume is high (paying for wifi by the minute) but will also reduce on-blockchain transaction for anything.

If you're seeking a lucid explanation of what the LN is: Imagine a group of people with buckets of coins, to establish a financial-transaction connection with a person in the group you pay a small fee, after connecting to that person, you can pass some coins into that person's bucket who can then pass those coins onto another person's bucket (ad nauseam) all without requiring (but with option if you wanted) to settle the amounts to the blockchain. The LN paper goes into how this is done in a cryptographically enforceable method via the Bitcoin blockchain.

>What is the anticipated savings if the Lightning Network is rolled out

There are two things to assess the value of the LN. The transactional cost savings but also (and more importantly) the new use cases available to having transaction occur on a roughly 1-2 second timeframe (versus the 10-60 minute window currently). All off-chain databases would have the technological capability to have cryptographically enforced 'instant' payments. Right now, off-chain centralized actors (Coinbase, Bitfinex) just update entries to a database but don't have any blockchain-enforce DB updates. With LN, they could.

>how much of current transaction volume could be handled in channels?

Could: The majority of it.

Would: Depends on LN participant's appetite to dedicate funds to a payment channel (LN coin bucket). It's a trade off of avoided block-transaction fees vs time-value of money of dedicated funds.

That title needs work, I had no idea what it meant until I clicked the article.
It very much depends on where your talents lie certainly. I could not be a nurse, I am squeamish and cannot interact with strangers positively. And so giving is better than doing. But the article expressly recommends people who CAN be nurses, doctors, surgeons, social workers, etc. instead pursue the most profitable jobs they can do instead. That is my disagreement with it.

Using the superman example: despite Superman's obvious aptitude and passion for fighting crime the author would prefer he spend his time turning a crank to make more money to donate to crime fighting efforts. I think that is terrible advice. Further, while SMBC is trying to be satirical (and succeeding I think), the author of the article crops the comic hiding the personal cost to Superman the comic expresses in later panels. And then to get REALLY nerdy with it, if Superman isn't fighting crime in the DC universe, no amount of free energy would matter because Darkseid or Lex Luthor or somebody else only Superman could stop would probably have either conquered or destroyed the earth.

My life has recently been impacted multiple times by talented doctors and nurses who could certainly have done something more profitable with their skills and so I am perhaps reacting more emotionally to this article than is necessary. But telling people not to be doctors and nurses and instead pursue something more profitable because "Money is better than doing good things yourself!" Sounds like the kind of bullshit Lex Luthor tells himself as he vaporizes a small city to ransom Superman into letting him be President.
> > Even a great team can be dysfunctional.

I disagree with this logic. Teams are great if their functionality ratio (functional/dysfunctional) is high and the results are good.

Teams change/vary over time, and therefore you need to have some aggregated evaluation of overall effectiveness.

Author here. I like to say 'this way would be better because...' as much as possible. Providing a business case to back up your claim makes it less personal.

Also having coding guidelines/linters is important from transitioning the conversation from 'I think it should be this way' to 'our coding standards say it should be this way' and removing some ego from the conversation.

ones Pepsi ran back in the day

Werent those shown to be flawed? My source is Gladwells books, but the pepsi vs coke taste test favoured pepsi because it was sweeter. But in drinking the full can people found pepsi overwhelmingly sweet and coke was more popular. My guess would be a similar thing would happen. You could optimise to appeal to low-quantity taste tests. but as a full proper meal a lot needs to be done (imo)
This is my plan. I guess it sounds greedy but until I have $10 million+ in the bank, I don't think I'd ever donate any large amounts to charities. I need to make sure my own future is secure: that I can continue to live a regular (reasonable) life regardless of disability, and that I can afford healthcare that may wind up costing millions of dollars. That money is also useful for the ability to, in a small way, afford to fight for my legal rights if needed, since those legal fees can easily cost millions.

If I lived in a society with socialized, efficient, good healthcare, a guaranteed standard of living for everyone, and a legal system that provided competent, free legal assistance, I would have no problem giving a big chunk of every paycheck to charities. Until then, I have no guarantee I won't become seriously ill tomorrow, blow through my meager 5 digit savings in less than a week in a hospital (even with insurance), and then die on the streets hungry and disabled.
