No. It would obviously be called Objection Relationship mapping and not relational.

This is really RDBMS 101 and we do have specific names and terms for a reason, please do not conflate them and don't confuse other people.

When you will go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity%E2%80%93relationship_mo..., you will see that it doesn't even mention ORMs.

Now go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-relational_mapping.

Read the "challenges" section that points to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-relational_impedance_mi....

Now I'll just quote this:

<<The object-relational impedance mismatch is a set of conceptual and technical difficulties that are often encountered when a relational database management system (RDBMS) is being served by an application program (or multiple application programs) written in an object-oriented programming language or style, particularly because objects or class definitions must be mapped to database tables defined by relational schema.>>

Open any DBMS book. Pick one at random and read the definition of a "relation". It's always going to be "table".

Alternatively, go to the most(?) popular ORM framework in the world and read this page http://hibernate.org/orm/what-is-an-orm/

More: https://www.fullstackpython.com/object-relational-mappers-or...

<<An object-relational mapper (ORM) is a code library that automates the transfer of data stored in relational databases tables into objects that are more commonly used in application code.>>

I could go on for hours, you get the idea.
Post VC investment, GitHub would never be allowed to exist in maintenance mode. It would be liquidated in one form or another if things were that dire. Once they took the venture capital, the possible outcomes narrowed considerably.
Fairness
Only rich people will get it. (no tech has ever done this.)

Already, modern medicine expands lifetime and in particularly healthy lifetime significantly and the richer you are the more of it you can access.

Like, I don't have the same chances to get to 70 and still feel alright as someone born today in Bangladesh, or Zambia.

The world is already very unfair, and the only solution to that is to make it more fair, not to avoid developing treatments that, if the world was fair, would benfit everyone.
Are you serious? Do they even teach history in High School now?
Google's willingness to drop their projects really gives me no confidence as a potential developer.

What happened to Brillo? Why start a new project with a new name instead of just making Brillo 2.0? Should I invest anything in this or will they just drop it again?
This article is hilarious.
The FBI targets people for long-term (in some cases years[1]) entrapment based only on their social circles, like being involved in environmentalism or being a Muslim[2].

This is pretty much the definition of the government investigating people and groups solely on the basis of disagreeing with their speech. This has probably been loosely the case for the entirety of America's existence (Jefferson passed the Sedition laws), but it was only in Hoover's FBI and the Second Red Scare's explicit ban on certain ideologies in government that this process became mechanized and effective. This was a project in the FBI you may have heard of called COINTELPRO.

COINTELPRO effectively never ended, and the project's strategy and tactics have advanced over the years and been buttressed by the vast amount of surveillance an American resident is subject to. But, through it all, the whole point was to investigate people solely because the government disagreed with their speech, whether that was communist speech, pacifist speech, feminist speech, pan-africanist speech, etc..

If you want to make arguments like "those uppity negros really were a threat! Look at Huey Newton!" or "all communist groups had the potential to be foreign intelligence front groups!", consider that these arguments can be applied universally, to any ideology. The alt-right could be "investigated" under the same argument used to justify investigating the CPUSA, which is, "the russians could be there."

So, you can believe what you want about the legality or illegality of this practice, but the fact is that it's been continuing unabated for a long time, and it doesn't show any sign of stopping soon.

Possibly. I still believe this issue is best looked at through a bank culture lens rather than a technical one.

Although I'll agree with you that the solution will require changes most likely to both.
To my knowledge no such report exists. The only answers you'll find will come from reading dozens of articles like this one over a long span of time, mixed with reading "primary sources" (put in quotes because as often as not those sources may be trying to sell you something).

While I am not qualified to put together a comprehensive report, I've been following this subject with some interest for a while, first as a skeptic, and now as someone who believes that not all of these people are completely full of hot air.

Even with my change of heart, I'd still bet against anything in your list other than crispr having any quantifiable impact on longevity in the next decade, and even then the first applications will be specific to particular age-related diseases.

Something resembling a more full "maintenance approach" to preventing aging and age-related disease may be within reach within 20 years, but I'd bet against that, too. Sticking my finger in the air and guessing, I'd say that such a complete overhaul of medicine is at least 50 years away. Although I should stipulate my guess is only that pessimistic because I'm biased towards thinking that such advances won't be made in my own lifetime because, hey, it rarely hurts to be a pessimist.
What fear is motivating me to ask other people to die, as you put it?

Eternal life would be sort of cool but I dispute your proposition that more people automatically make more progress faster. More people increases competition which incentivizes some kinds of progress but arguably retards others - consider our lamentable record of environmental destruction.

I don't think your aspirations are morally wrong in any way but your thesis seems unproven and I could just as easily argue that your efforts are primarily motivated by your own fear of death. Having had far more near-death experiences than most people I've met. I'm broadly OK with it because my experiences suggest to me that there's a lot more to consciousness than the everyday world, and that if and insofar as life has a purpose, it may be to reach some higher level of knowledge within finite constraints. I sometimes consider that life-as-we-know-it might be like some elaborated version of a book a film or a game (similar to but not the same as Bostrom's simulation argument).

Would you enjoy a book or a movie that never ended? Obviously there's a market for such things based on the continued existence of daytime TV soap operas, but nobody seems to think those shows have much cultural value.

I know only two telnet bbs software systems that use Utf8 rather than classic 8-bit codepages mentioned here. If anyone would like to see art try them out: 1984.ws (mine, Python) and htc.zapto.org (a friends, C++).

Haven't tried it yet but it should work. I too am dissapointed that recent ascii and cp437/"ansi art" continues to be released in old MSDOS encodings rather than UTF8, I guess mainly because the editors like pablodraw don't support it.

The bbs and art scene is a very closed source community, so these things really can't change very easily even if we wanted them too--folks like myself had to write entirely new software rather than contribute changes to existing.

They're probably sounding alarmist to try maximising attention. :/
I mean, only if you're viewing it from that point of view. A Haskell programmer would just say Rust has typeclasses.
I think Apple is at least as dangerous in the long-run. Yes, an iPhone is much more secure (against anyone but Apple) than any Android phone. But it's much less free. In the Apple ecosystem users have no say over their devices, and developers only do with Apple's blessing. In an Apple-dominated world there are 3 castes: Apple, Apple's favorite devs, and everyone else who has no say in technology anymore. I'm no RMS, but I think this would be a disaster.
Very cool. I love the idea of public data sets like these.

I wonder if AWS can swing somethings similar with Athena. They already have "requester pays" buckets for S3 so should be inline with that to have a similar offering for Athena connected to S3 resources.

Nobody lives forever even with "anti-aging technology".

This universe does not allow for that (black holes, galaxy collisions, stars burn out, meteorite collisions, accidents, war, crime)

1) having to eat soup forever (teeth won't last that long)
2) marriage is forever (no, not even until death anymore)
Gladly.

>including Racket's commercial users.

A language doesn't need maturity to have commercial use. Rust had commercial adoption pre-1.0, and that adoption is increasing. Rust is also nowhere near mature.

Racket being built in part for education is also undeniable. Look it up.

Racket's library support vs CL's is highly debatable. Neithet is ideal, but both are "good enough," so let's leave it at that.

As for Racket's perf, that's just a fact. Look at Racket, then at SBCL. Then at Racket. Then at SBCL. Sadly, it isn't SBCL. But if it started doing native code compilation, maybe it could be a bit more like SBCL.

This is also true of Scheme: Some of the Schemes are much faster than Racket, for many of the same reasons (many of them aren't as fast as SBCL, as I understand it, although I haven't run the benches, so I can't be sure).

This doesn't make Racket a bad language by any stretch. I don't happen to like it, but that's just preferential: there's nothing unambiguously bad about it AFAICT. In fact, it's quite well designed.

>a CL fanatic

Crap. You got me. All that time I spent arguing with lispm that yes, Scheme is a Lisp, explaining to people what Scheme is and why it's cool, explaining that yes, Hygienic Macros are a good idea, and no, that doesn't just mean declarative macros ala syntax-rules, there are imperative systems that do the same thing, discussing the differences between Racket and Scheme, and why I think they matter, but you can choose either, depending, writing CHICKEN Scheme macros, barely tested (because I was busy), on my cellphone, and so on, was just a ruse. I've really been a CL user all along. /s.

While there are things I love about CL (and I've even considered moving to it for various reasons, despite it being an uglier language - although in some ways also a more practical one), and things I hate about the Schemes - CHICKEN in particular (familiarity really does breed contempt! At least a little...), I still think that Scheme is a beautiful language.

While I don't think I'm a fanatic for anything, if I am a fanatic, I'm a Scheme fanatic, not a CL one. I have, as I've mentioned above, argued a lot with CL fanatics on This Very Forum.

Idiot, I'd take with a grin. Incompetant, with a smile (I may well be). Possibly misinformed? I'll downright admit it.

But a CL Fanatic? That's not just a stretch, it's flat-out wrong.
Thanks for pointing these out. I tried using the --inspect flag like your article pointed out but I couldn't get it to work with Chrome 54.

I can't really give a compare and contrast between what I'm using and the --inspect flag. From the article, I feel like I'd like --inspect better if I could get it to work.
I realize that's satire, but actual net neutrality violations are much cleverer and mostly won't even be visible to users. For example, it's more likely that Wired would (be forced to) pay Comcast a cut of their ad revenue.

I agree that numbers can be gamed, and it's possible that private hospitals might be particularly motivated to do so. Indeed, probably these numbers don't make much sense for anyone outside a small medical community of insiders to assess.

I'm not holding a torch for Cedars, but they are of similar stature for referrals AFAIK (not directly on-point, but indicative: https://www.cedars-sinai.edu/About-Us/News/News-Releases-201...).

First it normalizes to

if (num <= 0) {
return 0;
}

int a = 0;
int loop_n = (unsigned)(num - 1) / 5;
for (int x = 0; x <= loop_n; x++) {
a += x * 5 - 1;
}
return a;

Division by 5 is done by multiplying by the modular inverse, 3435973837.

From there you just have a summation, which has two components.

((loop_n + 1) * loop_n / 2) * 5 // 5x
- loop_n - 1 // -1

The assembly between these the manual and automatic methods is slightly different, but the difference is fairly trivial and opaque.
This phenomenon is alluded to in the spoken bit at the closing of Jason Mraz's "Details In The Fabric", with "You're an island of reality in an ocean of diarrhoea".

I'll take Oracle, SalesForce, or Microsoft over Google any day of the week. The worst Oracle will do is start charging me more, but god only knows what kind of sleazy ad tracking Google will add. No thank you, I'll move everything over to BitBucket.

Fortunately, I don't think Google will bother. They already shutdown Google Code when they couldn't use it to increase ad revenue, so hopefully they'll leave GitHub alone.
I'd highly recommend anyone who hasn't played with BigQuery yet to take a few moments to give it a shot. I was highly skeptical at first when my old company moved to it, but now I've come to love it as a platform.

What I love most:
[0] Exceptionally fast queries against large datasets.
[1] Very Cost Effective (although as others have called out, it can be accidentally misused resulting in a big bill).
[2] Non data-engineers can setup, use, and manage, with minimal difficulty.
[3] Gets you away from high-priced solutions like Vertica or Teradata.
[4] No management headaches like Redshift.

Downsides:
[0] Quotas can get annoying to work with.
[1] Not a ton of wrappers in a diverse set of languages.
[2] Not a ton of support with desktop SQL clients.
Dammit. We were so close. So close.

Hang in there, guys..
I'm not sure I would call these platforms micro-controllers. With that being said there is support for weave on a select number of micro-controllers.
Interesting that 600 employees sounds like a lot, but it works out that revenue/employee p.a is $230k+ - which is above average for enterprise SaaS[0] - and you have the 25%+ annual growth on that

That said, they should be doing better margin-wise since they would have relatively lower customer acquisition costs compared to the market since they have so much developer recognition.

> I think you are intentionally simplifying my statements, and the intents of educators, in an intentionally disingenuous way.

You're telling me that:

(Pyret intervention) -> (educators not struggling with complexity) -> (education outcome)

was so bad you think I'm dishonest? And you think that's the "only way" you can interpret the situation? And just in case you're wrong -- sorry?

1. Proposing a causal relationship: (independent variable) -> (dependent variable)

2. Proposing complexity: (independent variable) -> (mediating factors) -> (dependent variable).

This is a fucking good start to any policy conversation. Where else do you find this online?
It gives you a future market share via so many people using your software for free. They won't pay if it weren't free anyway, but would use a competing piece of software. That is, without the free (as in freedom) version, few would even consider paying for a commercial license.

Did you ever think why Microsoft is so lazy about enforcing the end-user Windows licenses on non-business customers? Maybe they want kids get used to to running Windows at home, and expect it in a work environment, and value this higher than the lost revenue from "pirates"?

You also have to consider that the Hays, KS hospital, being a much smaller hospital, has a much smaller number of cases. The confidence interval around that is definitely larger as a result. Not sure how much larger, but likely enough to make the difference statistically insignificant (town pop is 21k, heart surgery # is likely very low).

Put another way, a single death out of a small population of patients will have a larger impact on the statistics.
Show HN: Yet Another Hacker News Client Made with React Native and Redux
In a previous life I worked for cardiac surgeons - one of them was on a board for the State of Florida to research outcomes and how to publish them without affecting which cases are taken.

In the case of one example where NY started publishing outcomes the difficult cases switched to the Cleveland Clinic. The outcomes appearred to increase in NY and decrease at the Cleveland Clinic, but risk adjusted rates didn’t actually change for NY hospitals that transferred cases or for the Cleveland Clinic.

This is absolutely something that happens and Cardiac Surgeons are all scientists to some degree. The results and risk adjustments are very well documented and they can determine them with a fair degree of accuracy. I’m not aware of the info for this particular case, but if they did risk adjust (the patient) it right - there are still a lot of other factors that determine quality of care (speed of delivery of service) and quantity of surgerys performed (if you don’t perform enough surgeries per year your quality suffers). Incidently, this is true for surgical staff (nurses) as well. If the surgeon travels to numerous to hospitals… the hospitals with the most surgeries performed will have better outcomes (after risk adjustment for them doing higher risk surgeries).
From what I've heard it will be eventually.

Could be or they probably don't know the details of GitHub's business, product, etc. If you aren't an engineer, writing for Bloomberg and getting the financials of a hyped startup like GitHub, that article is the outcome in most of the cases. Imagine them writing about Docker - I doubt it would be different.

Which is a bummer. I wish there would be somebody more closely analyzing the industry. There's so much going on and I believe that surfacing more of that to the broader community would be beneficial for all of us and result in stronger companies. I think nobody wants to see GitHub going out of Business. We need health competition (as consumers of their products). That GitLab forced pressure on them to improve the product is awesome. I wish Bloomberg would have put more focus on the cultural/leadership issues because a more diverse/inclusive GitHub, again, is better for all of us.

There isn't really any one thing that you should do, other than take care of your health and you are doing that.

Going back to school and completing a degree makes some sense given the state of the job market. Going back to school would open up the possibility of internships because in the US, legitimate internships are always tied to academic programs. Also, universities have resources to help match students with jobs. On campus work is also a possibility or at least it was back when I was in school. Co-op is also another possibility.

I'd offer that returning to Northwestern is just one option. It is possible to apply other places if Chicago is not where you want to spend another year or so. It's a good school no doubt, but there are many others and it might be sensible to see if there is a program that emphasizes internship and co-op programs more than others.

I guess where I'm going is that working and school are not necessarily mutually exclusive and it might be possible to balance pursuit of both goals while easing into the world of work and building a career.

Since I find myself giving advice, I suppose one more piece doesn't make the pile that much bigger. Give yourself time to heal and transition to your adult life. It sounds like you're on a reasonable path.

Good luck.

Oh they did, in fact, but the results in WT mice were not as easy to overhype. The effects were extremely minor to nonexistent in aged wild-type animals (Fig S7 from the paper). Unfortunately, press releases and the subsequent news articles -- as usual -- have totally oversold what this paper means.
