I understand focus is related to dopamine, a neurochemical and it is know that nearly all neurochemicals can be depleted or their pathways become less effective because of various run-time compensations that occur.

Coffee effects me most for the first cup, most likely because I have stores of adrenaline and dopamine, after than first cup any cup after than decreases its effect on me. The first coffee probably is more noticable because of the difference between my no coffee state and my coffee state -- which is difference than a wearing off coffee state and a free cup coffee state.

It is reasonable to be able to measure these effects. Not saying this effect is true, but neurochemical store depletion as well as real-time and long-term compensation are real.

By that logic no law can ever be imposed, because you're free to try and secede.

The EU makes it as difficult as possible to 'secede' as evidenced by their actions post-Brexit. Their minds are 100% focused on how to make it as painful as possible to reduce the chances of anyone else leaving. This is the mentality of a law enforcer, not a peer.
This is the dirty secret that nobody here wants to admit: the entire startup system that so many here benefit from incentivizes digging yourself deeper. Folks want to blame Elizabeth Holmes for taking seriously all the startup mantras. "Shoot for the moon" and "Fake it until you make it" and "Startups are about people, not ____" and "Use your resources".

Sure, startups are supposed to "fail fast" too, but whenever a startup actually voluntarily returns money to investors early it's the talk of the town. Nobody ever expected that from a startup with as much capital as Theranos got.
You can never prove that any food is safe beyond a doubt. You can only say whether it riskier or not than other types of food or breeding. In the case of GMOs, it has been shown to be no less risky than conventional or mutagenic breeding.

In my mind, causality is an additional set of modeling assumptions that greatly enhance our ability to do logical and probabilistic inference.

The problems Europe faces are structural, the same as Japan's. I'm on my phone and in vacation so don't have enough time to comment, but tgat's enough saying that Europe being behind the US has almost nothing to do with the Euro, it's just that the Americans work more (for better or for worse), there's a lot less labor regulation (for better or worse) and that's a totally different spirit present in America (I'm European). Capitalism can only win if it grows, like it does in the States, but the people of Europe have decided that it was time to take a break and start enjoying life for a moment (for better or worse)
I would say it's not a rich vs poor issue. The people who lose money with inflation are the ones who are over exposed to their currency: pensioners close to retirement, forex traders or foreign governments who bet on that currency, black market players who have to hold large amounts of cash without investing it, banks with a lot of fixed 30 year low interest rate mortgages outstanding. Forex players, banks, and foreign governments can be rich, pensioners and black market players can be poor.

Banks actually sell most of the mortgages back to the federal government in the us. Maybe that's the reason us government isn't inflating the dollar too much. They themselves hold most of it through mortgages.
Errol Morris's Secret Weapon for Unsettling Interviews: The Interrotron
Bernard Lietaer has written a lot on complementary currencies, such as the one above. His basic point is to have a heterogeneous money market, as opposed to the current monoculture. Every currency needs to fulfill a social goal, or number of those, and the complementary (not "alternative") currencies can by designed to act countercyclical to the dominant currency, attenuating the business cycle (he notes the Swiss "Wir" Bank as a good example of that).

In dining services we'd half jokingly use phrases like "throwing bodies at the problem" because a pulse was our primary qualification for employment.

If you "move it to the red" then the visible indicator would now be blue - to some people that would indicate that the temperature should now be that which is associated with blue, i.e. it should be cold.

To me this alternative interpretation makes sense, and to me that means it's ambiguous.

its funny, but in his book "Deep work", the author points that many successful writers schedule deep work to make it easy to execute. Plus in daily rituals by mason curry, I see almost all of successful writers use some sort of schedule to write or create everyday. I myself have tried his weekly approach and as many of the comments mentioned above, I kept pushing it of till the weekends. I think the point is valid and each person is on a different level, but "write every day" ISNT NECESSARILY A BAD ADVICE....
IIRC Pearl has a chapter on "Where does causality come from?" and "Can there be causality without time?" I don't remember the conclusion unfortunately. IMO causality is a strict consequence of the time-based physics of our universe. The future was caused by the past. Animals evolved from primordial bacteria, not the other way around.
These Technologies Do Not Exist: Planet Sized Sensors
Its about not getting ripped off. With Lyft/Uber you can escalate if you feel ripped off. With Taxi Cartel's, there's nobody to take your complaints. We feel ripped off whenever we've had to ask this of ourselves, "Gosh, we seem to have gone a longer route" or "Did he start the meter before I got into the car?"

Side story: In Baltimore this happened to me. I got into a taxi and the driver starts asking me tons of questions. I'm politely answering and having conversation but I'm clearly not paying attention to the meter. We drove for 7-10 mins, 2-3 miles or so, and upon arriving to my destination is when I realized the cost was $30.

>> Part of the problem with Python is (that Lua doesn't share) is that things you use all the time can potentially shift between two loop iterations, e.g.

for x in os.listdir(PATH):
y = os.path.join(PATH, x)
process_file(y)

>> There is no guarantee that "os.path" (and thus "os.path.join") called by one iteration is the same one called by the next iteration - process_file() might have modified it.

> LuaJIT also gets serious wins from lifting the lookups out of loops since they can't change. This is only due to the fact that Lua doesn't have threads that can muck with each other's state.

Would Lua code equivalent to the above Python have the same problem - that "process_file" could modify the value of "os.path"? Would this prevent LuaJIT from hoisting the lookup out of the loop, even in the absence of threads?

I would assume numbers like that are hard to compare. Perhaps corporate security spends a substantial effort on the CEO, but the cost ends up in the general security budget. Perhaps the CEO flies private jets primarily for security reasons (I believe this is the case for Warren Buffet), but the cost ends up on the travel budget (and vice versa). The $1700 figure is especially suspect, that will barely pay for locks on the doors, so there's some security expenses "hidden" in other budgets.

Well, CFEngine (especially 3.x, a third rewrite of the same basic idea) does
not show these trade-offs. It was designed from the ground up as a general
tool based on previous experiences with wide deployments, it (its codebase)
did not start as a script for solving some specific problem in some specific
workflow.

Puppet has similar history, I believe, as a tool that was written to replace
cfengine (2.x) without its shortcomings.
Some Thoughts About Private Blockchains
Deep learning is coming to a chip near you
Understandable, but wasn't this always going to be inevitable given people treating BTC as an investment for USD instead of as a crypto currency? Sooner or later, regardless of the Government/Country combination, you're going to get the attention of various agencies when an online currency starts to be used to store irl currency. It's why it's always been somewhat ironic to me that despite the original intent of cryptocurrency, people still listed their holdings in USD, as if BTC was their portfolio.

I understand to a degree the argument of what you do with your money should be your business, and if you want to store it in BTC and believe you can convert it to necessary currency later on, that's fine; I'm not being sardonic either, that's your choice with your money. But I don't think that BTC was really designed or intended for this purpose as it brings the exact sort of scrutiny that one would hope to avoid with a cryptocurrency, and with scrutiny, regulation. Maybe if the total value of exchanges on BTC without the injection/interaction of irl currencies grew large enough (i.e., there were enough transactions for legal goods/services), the same scrutiny "might" be applied, but I'm not really convinced that governments would care much one way or another.

Bitcoin's own reputation has also helped bring this scrutiny down - even if the level of anonymity is questionable, most government officials and agencies hear "anonymous" and "exchanges" and immediately want to have controls set in place. Even if they figure out that there is a very traceable paper trail, there's still an interest in ensuring that it's not being used to launder. Their curiosity will not be satisfied with people's assurances that "it's an online currency, that's all."

Basically, the gold rush with BTC sort of led it exactly to the state it's in, and brought the eye of government to it. As long as people treat it like gold or silver or any other commodity, the government is going to want a piece of it, or at least keep a solid eye on it.
Part of the problem with Python is (that Lua doesn't share) is that things you use all the time can potentially shift between two loop iterations

Why is this problem not shared by Lua? Does Lua somehow prevent "process_file" from modifying the equivalent of "os.path"?
That's my point exactly. Sorry if it wasn't clear.

Be sure to be aware of country support.

HN is very US centric, but if you have plans for wide EU coverage for instance they can both pose challenges. When I looked recently Stripe was moving at a far more aggressive pace to comprehensive coverage in the region.

Neither have very good Asian/South American coverage.

However, with Braintree's Paypal integration it makes the above point moot (to a certain extent anyway).
I think the point coinsides with the fact from GTD that our brains need to see the next actionable steps, not just spend two hours. So I find it helpful to write "find out about undefined behaviour", instead of writing "spend two hours: research for article"....
Haha, that's probably true!
> Germany's instance to be a stickler for sticklers sake is not helping anybody

Which is why I mentioned "but many here don't understand you cannot just change a country's culture by forcing them to strictly follow EU rules.".

The VW case is seen by many as an exception and usually every corruption case tends to be dealt exemplary, whereas in my home country (PT) corruption, specially the small one (owning favors) is still seen as profitable, because no big fish really gets prosecuted and it is the only way some things are actually done.

We know for such that such cases will drag in court and be archived after a few years of public discussion on the media.

Good luck trying to live in the southern or eastern Europe trying to do without small favors. It is possible and many people strive for it, but it isn't easy.
In any argument there is your side, their side, and the truth.

Need more information.

What is your price point?

Do you need to be able to manually bill? (i.e. for Enterprise and contract managed sales rather than self-serve... the difference being: invoicing, purchase orders)

Is this all subscription stuff, or are you doing one-off?

Does your market care about PayPal or is it all credit card?

You could probably boil it down to: If you care about PayPal then go Braintree, otherwise go Stripe.

But it's not as easy as that, something one can only learn through experience is which gateway will bill more transactions for exactly the same users and subscriptions? And yes, there will be a difference as banks treat different requestors differently, having different fraud profiles, etc.

It's so incredibly complex a question, that it needs vastly more information to answer.

But if you're early days, and cannot answer the questions fully, then just decide whether you think you care about PayPal and if not go Stripe to simplify everything.

Oh, and whatever you do... abstract away the payments and subscription stuff. Everyone changes their payments provider at some point, just put it all in one neat place so you can reduce the footprint of it for the time being.
I'm really curious about this as well. I find it hard to believe all the employees would be willing to help them cover anything up at this point.

Maybe the extreme, cult-like nature of Theranos is going to be the next story to drop. Or maybe their tech will actually work. Who knows.
> Coinbase feels more and more like PayPal

> Coinbase is prohibited by law from doing business

The premise that bitcoin frees you from normal legal requirements is the problem here. Or the US attempts at global jurisdiction for KYC, take your pick.

Paypal is not gratuitously bad. Every annoying decision they make is because they're backed into a cost-minimising corner by fraud and compliance problems.

The bitcoin community believe that purchases should be fully caveat emptor, and as a result there's a high level of fraud and theft which is going to put off non-ideological adopters.

That's your first mistake. You can get all that, but it's not exactly English. You'd have better luck with getting all that on roast potatoes to be honest.

I agree, but then again we don't really have a street food culture like those places. London has got pretty into the street food idea, and there are tonnes of really nice food markets springing up everywhere. Pretty damn expensive, but nice once in a while.

An SP, but that's stupid tax wise as almost 50% goes to tax then. With a Dutch Ltd., it's 20% corporate tax and minimum CEO salary about 50K/y. So then you pay ~50% on that salary + corporate tax on your revenue.

Because I live in the Netherlands. And if I want to keep living here, I can't just offshore my company to somewhere and run it from here. Especially not since it's a 1-person company. It'll be judged by the Dutch IRS as a Dutch corp. not an Estonian corp. Then I'm double taxed. Depends if you're audited or not for this to happen.

It's a myth you can just open a corp anywhere and benefit from low tax, a lot depends on where you live personally (as CEO), where your staff is, where your customers are and where you spend the "fruits of your labor". Why is it a myth? Because otherwise EVERY freelancer would offshore to a low-tax country. They can't. It's a loophole that doesn't exist.
