I have the OnePlus One still, actually. It's been in water and dropped on the ground, and somehow is still going strong. For $300, this is the best phone I have ever had, even ignoring the 64GB storage and out of the box rootability.

I've looked at the OnePlus 3, and it seems like a worthy successor. LinusTechTips on YouTube did a review on it. I'd recommend checking it out.

You may be confusing the metric of convictions with the metric of activity (proxy for deterrence)

The way it works in the USA for example, is if the punishment for cocaine dealing is draconian, for white people it'll be plea bargained down to time served and some probation for a small possession charge, but black people will get convicted and go to prison on a full trafficking and conspiracy charge, so the metric you're actually measuring is the racial ratio of coke dealers caught by the cops.

Likewise what you're likely really measuring in the Asian countries is the ratio of border guards and cops who can be bought off and stay bought off. There may be some occasional extremely aggressive bribe negotiation situations, or a much disliked or distrusted courier is ratted out by his own guys (or an opposing group?). Another metric that's actually being measured is the local technologies and ratios of shipments; its quite possible that things in the USA are extremely personal with trunks full of stuff in personally owned vehicles but in Asia anonymous shipping containers in government owned and operated ports that don't legally exist are the primary source or maybe something even sneakier.

Because I have never seen a coherent definition of what "free will" is supposed to mean, let alone how to empirically test for its existence. What is this "will" free from? The workings of the brain? If that is the case, then we are talking about the supernatural. If not, then we know that the brain develops according to genetic instructions and the environment, and we also know that both these things can go wrong by no fault of the person.

>> Is your hourly rate set to a certain price by a central body?

Why should mine be?

You pick your rate. Whatever you like. Now charge that to every one of your patients with no discounts or negotiation. That's all I want you to do. Don't do anything different for insured patients either, your rate is your rate and the insurance company must pay it, or pass the rest on to the patient. Simple as that. The doctor down the street is free to pick his/her rate too, but they must charge that rate for all of their patients.

No, not like a dynamic language with optional hints. "Optional" here is a huge disadvantage. For example, if a function lacks a hint which would indicate it's pure, is this because it's meant to be impure or because the programmer forgot to add the hint? No, in order to be useful, static typing must be on by default.

Like the other commenter says, generics actually increase safety: there are fewer assumptions (and therefore, incorrect assumptions, aka bugs) you can make when your functions are generic. Also, modern statically typed languages do not increase clutter by much, and can be very elegant and brief.
My biggest fear would be to wake up one day and all my bitcoins would have no or close to no value. In that sense I trust state currency a lot (living in a stable and peaceful country).
FWIW, it's always possible to stand up a dynamic site, crawl it with `wget` in mirror mode, and get a static website as its output.

Here's one data point: It has caused endless troubles on a digital signage project I worked on a couple of years ago. Having a proper solution then would save us tons of hours trying various workarounds to minimize the effect (while at the same time having decent performance).

On the other hand, the last time I (successfully) used X's network transparency was back in '98 on a couple of Sun workstations (when I had access -- most of the time it was VT220 instead :) Since then, every time I did try it, I ended up regretting it since the bandwidth and the latency were too poor for any sane usage (VNC ended up working way better).

Which is not to say networked X is not valuable -- just that it's misleading to think you're (or myself, for that matter) a typical user.
It is the erroneous belief that every topic, including those concerning human life, can be a relativism.
There is not much in France that I cherish more than the ideal and fight behind abolition of death penalty (useless trivia: it happened to be voted the year of my birth). Countless philosophers and thinkers through the course of the 20th century have written about it, culminating in the speech of Robert Badinter who fiercely defended this bill to be passed. Sadly, I have a hard time finding any of this material translated into English.

Here are a few, though, for the curious:

Those who believe in the dissuasive value of death penalty are unaware of the human truth. The criminal passion is not the more stopped by the fear of death than other passions which are themselves noble.

— Robert Badinter, extrait d'un discours à l’Assemblée nationale - 17 Septembre 1981

So what is capital punishment but the most deliberate of murders, to which no infamy, however calculated, could be compared to?

— Albert Camus

Death penalty is an immoral punishment, or at the very least useless, because it make us used to the performance of torments, and because it repairs nothing; as, sadly, the death of the murderer does not give back life to the victim.

— François Eugène Vidocq.

What does Law says? Thou shalt not kill! How does she says it? By Killing!

— Victor Hugo, Les misérables

I looked into death penalty by both of its sides, direct action, indirect action. What remains of it? Only a horrible and useless thing, only a bloody assault called crime when the individual carries it, and called justice (oh pain!) when society perpetrates it. Know this, whoever you are, lawmakers or judges, to the eyes of God, to the eyes of conscience, what is crime for the individual is crime for society.

— Victor Hugo, discours devant l’Assemblée constituante, 1848

As long as death penalty exists, we will feel cold when stepping into a Court of Appeal, enshrouded in night.

— Victor Hugo

Death penalty is opposite to what mankind, since two thousand years, has thought of higher and dreams of more noble.

— Jean Jaurès

To take a life when a life has been lost is revenge, not justice.

— Desmond Tutu

Assassination on the scaffold is the worst form of assassination because there it is invested with the approval of the society. Murder and capital punishment are not opposites that cancel one another, but similars that breed their own kind.

— George Bernard Shaw

Is performance acceptable if you're required to re-build/adjust the graph for every single minibatch, because the number of unrolled items is different every time?

That is what I mean by "Manual unrolling fails as soon as the number of repetitions is not fixed"; you can do manual unrolling in every framework but generally repeated graph building makes it unusably slow if you're unable to do the loop "in the system" with a runtime-chosen number of repetitions.

Padding is also not really a solution, since your average sequence length is likely 5 or 10 times less than the maximum sequence length that you want to support, so just padding to a fixed size will mean 5-10 times slower processing.

Sort of tangental but oone thing I have always appreciated about the Python community and Guido is the flexibility and open mindedness in adding features to the language from other languages. I can't remember where I heard/saw it (it was video iirc) but Guido had pointed out there is real value to having static type analysis to a language.

While Python does now have type annotations (pep 484) that are more powerful than Golang (generics) they currently aren't checked. I wouldn't be surprised if future Pythons start readily using these type annotations. At the same time I wouldn't be surprised if Golang never has generic (just my opinion).
Near infinite scalability with little loss of performance? Definitely not with MongoDB. Can you show that with some numbers? I have seen quite the contrary: insertion speed slightly decreases with database size. Aggregate query speed decreases up to the point the database becomes unusable when you are on the order of small TB. Definitely a problem relational databases don't suffer (at least this significantly and at least at this scale).

>> You and your insurance company are the only people who know the status of about 10+ variables which will affect your out-of-pocket-cost. What's your deductible's status: Have you exceeded it? What's your out of pocket max for the year? Do you have a copay or coinsurance for ambulatory services vs hospital provided services? Are we in-network with your variant insurance company's policy?

Stop talking about what the patient will have to pay out of pocket and start talking about how much you will receive. I agree that how much of that is covered by my insurance is between me and them, but it starts with what YOU charge for services. And back to my original point, that should be a fixed rate (of your choosing) charges to all of your patients (and their insurance company).
I think most users would agree with you. Hating on iTunes is popular with tech people, but I don't know if your average person cares.

The biggest complaint I have with iTunes is that it tries to do too many things, and it would be better to break the app up. It somehow got itself into the smartphone and tablet backup business.

Years ago, I wrote that iTunes should be split up into smaller apps: http://interchangeproject.org/2012/04/16/itunes-should-be-sp...

I don't know if I really care that much anymore, as iTunes works fine for my uses, but I'm also no longer a heavy iTunes user. I use my iPhone to play music at home and on the go. I watch movies either on my Apple TV or iPad.

I mainly use iTunes to see what's new in the store. That could be a reflection of using iTunes, however.

I think the "dismissive" tone is entirely sarcastic, and really helps to de-emphasize the very intimidating complexity of music theory. I've always been curious about music theory, but have really failed to get anywhere close to learning it because of how formidable the field is. This article made that complexity feel a little less untouchable for someone who was not trained in music, and the sarcastically "dismissive" tone helped a lot.

> I'd be more interested to hear what other possibilities this would open up.

Not sure if this is what you meant by "possibilities," but I see a couple of major issues with this:

- The cost of buying off a politician (oh sorry I meant "lobbying") dramatically decreases. It's a lot cheaper to campaign to 30,000 people than it is to campaign for several million.

- The sheer number of representatives (~10600) presents a problem: it grants much much more significance to the senate, because deliberating on bill in the house would be impossible (and introduces effective filibuster since a 40% coalition could use 5 minute speaking slots to take up 2 weeks of time on the floor)

- Gerrymandering would become much, much worse as the size of districts decreased and number of representatives increased, just because the number of options you have to split up your state dramatically increase. Potentially minority districts would have 90% minority support while majority districts could be much more competitive (allowing for far more of them).
Ha! I've travelled to remote parts of South America, Africa, Asia, and the only times I ever experienced getting robbed or deeply fearing for my safety was in Barcelona and Philly.

Proprietary hardware is a hard sale for anyone these days but in Apple's case it's even harder because their previous attempts left many shops with a disinclination to ever use them again. It'd take a serious commitment to forget the era where you had to beg for OS X Server bugfixes by saying they were preventing the purchase of n Macs.
Sort of. They are separate scales, but if you compose (classical-style) music in a minor key, you don't typically pick one of those scales. The chords that appear might include any of those notes, even within individual phrases.

In my totally non-expert observation, contemporary music often is more modal, in the sense that it probably would just pick one of those scales (particularly natural minor) and stick to it.

"rejoin society"

Only slightly derailing the conversation to point out that at current numbers and extrapolating some trends pretty soon the majority experience for some subgroups will be to have served some time in prison.

At that point where society = ex con for some small enough local value of society, I don't think doing time like everyone else is going to involve any problem rejoining society, when everyone in your society did time.

I mean, sure the odds of going to Stanford just dropped from 0.0001% to 0% which is very exciting for the theoretical 0.0001% person, but what kind of cultural influence can that possibly be for everyone else on either side given those numbers?
Before we had kids, if a bite of the most delectable piece of grilled steak touched the surface of our kitchen table, I would not eat that piece of steak. In my mind, it was contaminated and a great risk to eat.

Now that we've got kids, I will eat that same piece of steak even if it falls on the floor. There's just so much good food on our floor now. Goldfish, Cheez-Its, bananas, etc.

Perhaps marginally related, our kids are the healthiest in their classes.

Programming languages are a lot easier to grasp. ;)

The oldest programming languages are only 50 years old, whereas the oldest music notation is at least 4000 years old.

Most programming lanuguages haven't crossed any spoken languages, but modern music notation & terminology has been heavily developed by countries all over Asia and Europe.

This is a big reason why musical notation seems so weird at first, especially to engineers, because it is a legacy that comes from a different time, a different context, in a different language. The people who developed musical notation had different math, different logic and different musical motivations than we have now.

Think about this for a while and it starts to feel like a miracle that musical notation works at all, not to mention how well it works.

Programming languages were developed by people nearer to us in every way, and made to be logical and simple, so it makes sense that they're easier to grasp quickly.
It's kinda disingenuous to make wild speculations like that.

I'm confused. How does abolishing capital punishment make a system that we know has executed innocent people worse?

Halt capital punishment to prevent further, irreversible, errors. AND work on other reforms (better trial lawyers, more equitable appeals process, etc.). Then you can bring back capital punishment once we have a greater degree of confidence in the system.
I used to be for the death penalty, but now I feel that the death penalty is really just state-sponsored revenge. Our society has moved beyond the "eye for an eye" concept, and it's natural that feelings about the death penalty will follow.

Will Breivik get out in 21 years? It's possible that he'll convince the necessary people that he's been appropriately punished and understands why his actions were wrong, but most people believe it's unlikely. --The terms of his conviction allow him to be held longer if the State determines it is necessary.

The US needs to start looking at prisons more like Norway does - the deprivation of freedom is punishment for a crime, but we should have a duty to those who are imprisoned to help prepare them for when they are released - at that point their punishment is supposed to be over, and their crimes shouldn't continue to follow them and prevent them from being able to live like any other person.
