Application of calculus to the real world, in its most basic form, is basic physics. The whole point of people who aren't planning on building on calculus with further mathematics taking calculus is to better understand the world and how it works, not to be able to derive stuff, I think.

Thanks for this. Knew they took on debt but didn't know the arrangement. My biggest concern about them is if they run out of runnway. People think money chases after these deals, but there's only so many companies able to do billion dollar rounds. People that are looking for 10x returns will be looking elsewhere.
So, your proposed solution to integral(ln(x)) involves first noticing that d/dx (1/x) = ln(x), then proceeding to use v=1/x to integrate by parts?

I think I am misunderstanding something, because as far as I can tell, integration by parts where one of the parts is 1 is literally useless.
What I seem to never hear people mentioning is that it's nice to have your own car.

I have my car all set up how I like it, with a nice aftermarket stereo and amp and hundreds of gigabytes of mp3s because music is important to me, the seat is exactly set up how I like it, etc etc. I specifically bought a car that I actually enjoy driving.

I have an umbrella in the car in case it rains, and a jumper in there if it is cold outside, so I don't have to carry those things with me all the time.

Also, I know that there was no smelly/dirty/messy person in the car before me. Public transport is a yucky experience overall so why would a super cheap Uber end up being any different?

I will personally pay a premium for that comfort and convenience, and I can't be the only one, can I? How much cheaper can an Uber be compared to owning my own car?

I guess it all depends on how much the premium is...

I agree that Snowden did it about as well as you could possibly hope for a whistleblower exposing classified information. Manning meant well, but was naive and sloppy. Assange started out with good ideas, but seems to have gone mad with power after the Manning leaks. Still, some of the stuff that Manning and Assange leaked, did need to be exposed. It should have been handled more responsibly, but it still needed to be done.
this particular one, maybe, but there might be others. like the user base pre-ota and post ota (number-wise) could be different.

I think there is a good SaaS business with A/B testing robot/car software OTA.
I would imagine some metrics would be:
1. car speed
2. battery consumption per mile.
3. user comfort metrics (if it's possible to measure, maybe like hearthrate, body temperature etc - i can imagine if robots were driving bad, it'd be visible in heart rate or something like that).4

The list probably goes on. It would be interesting to see how much battery consumption changed after OTA, for example.
It's disappointing to see this comment downvoted. The blog post honestly feels kind of fluffy and is definitely far from scientific. A lot of smart people have spent a lot time thinking about this question. It seems foolish to not take the existing body of thought as a starting point.
My Debt to TechBeacon
At the very least in a legal standpoint that's not true, because with a human driver it's far easier to define fault (which in turn allows for the issue to be resolved) than if two autopilots happen to collide. Who pays for what then?

From a safety point of view, I'm more inclined to agree however I'm not entirely convinced that we've passed the novelty stage of it yet where drivers will remain vigilant because it's a new and exciting feature and that mentally primes them to keep focused. It wouldn't suprise me that as it becomes more mainstream, drivers begin to be less vigilant on staying focused as society as a whole begins to trust it more. That's when everything could go bad.

Nevertheless, you're absolutely right that this is the future no matter what so we need to design it as best we can to resolve all of the issues it may give rise to.

It is legal unless your product is patented or a copyright violation is involved. It is never a bad idea to file a provisional patent application which costs $60 and gives you the intimidation value of saying your product is patent pending.
Just as a response to the first section, you can't say that Uber is subsidizing both customers and drivers like they are separate costs. There is some margin, which is the difference between what the customer pays and what the driver gets paid. Currently this margin is negative, which means that Uber is "subsidizing" the transaction by paying the difference themselves. For any given ride the customer subsidy and the driver subsidy are same thing, Uber doesn't pay twice.

funny story, quoting:

```

"Tell me," he said, "how were you able to do that cube-root problem so fast?"

I started to explain that it was an approximate method, and had to do with the percentage of error. "Suppose you had given me 28. Now the cube root of 27 is 3 ..."

He picks up his abacus: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz— "Oh yes," he says.

I realized something: he doesn't know numbers... Furthermore, the whole idea of an approximate method was beyond him, even though a cubic root often cannot be computed exactly by any method.

I suspect OTA update was applied simultaneously rather than staggered over the course of the year, so probably not. You can control for seasonality using some other data as a proxy, but the more adjustments you make, the more potential there is for introducing errors. Randomized test/control split is almost always better than before/after comparison.

Great contrast – and you're not really saying that Uber is not building infrastructure but that one is happening faster than the other one:

1) Uber: a) subsidize sales b) build infrastructure
2) Amazon: a) build infrastructure, b) grow sales at a sustainable rate even if it takes 20 years.

I think Zappos had the same business model. But we'll see.

CMEs happening at a regular rate is actually a good thing - they keep the magnetosphere "puffed-up" in a sense. A lack of CMEs causes the extra buffer to fade away, making earth more vulnerable to smaller CMEs, increasing the likeliness of geomagnetic storms. Geomagnetic storms lead to all kinds of crazy stuff - more extreme weather, increased radiation exposure to flight passengers, increased anxiety/suicide rates and heart problems have been correlated with geomagnetic disturbance.

The predicted upcoming grand-minimum (which we are long overdue for) is going to be a doozy.

Tbh I didn't want to say too much about myself but it's sort of useless info anyway.

Mostly it's about the emotional connections I made with people many times my age (at the time), the fact that I was treated based on the way I communicated and prejudice was completely arbitrary (gnomes suck etc.) Basically a lot of intangibles in my way of thinking that developed during that time which would have been significantly different if I had spent that formative time in the physical realm with kids from the same cultural bubble and in the same place mentally.

It made me want to travel, a lot.
There's no problem with aborting a test early, for whatever reason. However that doesn't mean you can still draw conclusions from such a test. If you plan to do a trial with 1,000 patients and you stop midway because you've reached statistical significance you run a big risk of claiming a treatment works when it doesn't.

Similarly, every test you do has a small probability to give a false positive, the more test you do the bigger the total chance that you'll be jumping to conclusions.

Also, the size of the effect is irrelevant since that should already be accounted for by whatever test you do.
Again, why? Why are you so against people getting paid for their work?
My training was in commutative algebra as a pure mathematician. I did dabble in combinatorial commutative algebra and went so far as purchase a book on the topic by Sturmfels and Miller. I doubt very much that you can find a published paper in mathematics in which the author guessed the answer to something and did not prove anything. Every paper I read (commutative algebra) proved things or discussed something heuristically with the goal of finding a method of proving.

I have the book by Stanley on combinatorics. There are not results of the form: I guessed A is the answer and it's right. Let's move on. This is does not happen. When one notices something is a solution the mathematician always wonders why. A mathematician wonders what underlying structure there is. Never is one satisfied by a guess.

If someone found a counterexample to the Riemann Hypothesis the first question would be, why is this number a counterexample? What caused the obstruction? You could problem publish a paper that just said, A is a counterexample to the Riemann Hypothesis. But you could not publish a paper that said, I guessed A is a solution to B and it turns out I was right.
I remember reading an interview with Anders Hejlsberg (the main guy who wrote Turbo Pascal) many years ago where he said it was mostly Assembly, with some C (not sure which flavour of C though). Apparently Anders was one of the few people at the time who could write large blocks of 8088 assembler off the top of his head.

Carter's decision to do this reminds me of Johnson's comment about "losing the south for a generation" with the civil rights act.

Despite the stereotype, typically the economy sucks under republicans and is repaired by democrat (Eisenhower is an exception, and Roosevelt took a while to figure out what to do, but I did say "generally"). Remember the concern under Clinton that the national debt might be retired and what a disaster that would be?

Since I'm in the realm of gross generalizations it's often under Democrats that wars have ramped up: well, Roosevelt again, Kennedy and Johnson Vietnam, and, yes, Obama on the secret side) while republicans can close them off: Nixon (Viet nam & the cold war with China, Reagan/Bush sr Cold War with Russia.

If it's in the bay area I'd say just give your number, they'll do something. An offer is an offer... It's like buying a car, they give their offer and you give yours until it works out. I've done it so many times.

Though, the base salary is the hardest thing to negotiate. A lot of companies won't change that number no matter how good you are, because they try to maintain their employees within the same bracket and avoid any frictions between people. Simply by asking I got double sign-on, more RSU's, etc. But from experience if it's not a google or one of the big 5, then they won't bump up the base salary. So you should target sign-on and RSU's/stock/options.
I don't understand why the paradigm isn't about full volumetric prediction .. is it because people were too tired of solving all other issues (surely possible at the time of DARPA challenge, but Tesla had time and money since); or hardware limits (like scanning a larger area would impede signal quality or make processing too heavy ..)
There are many publications that are paid for their work without the benefit of free search engine traffic.

I might have a different opinion if there were a workable micropayment system where I could pay for the article. I searched for something, saw an article in the search results. I want to read the article...Not buy a full subscription to some newspaper or magazine.

It is bait and switch...Some results lead to what was promised in the snippet on the search results. Others lead to an ad for a subscription.
I make a point of providing what could be considered pointed feedback on their spam-feeding mechanisms formatted as obviously fake-but-valid-looking email addresses. If shortsighted jerks want email addresses, I'll give them some.

What I actually want for this sort of problem is a browser extension that allows me to annotate domains in some way, and then treats links differently based on that. This is a half-baked idea; I have no time to make this, so I haven't been thinking about it much. (Please steal the idea!) But perhaps a way to quickly tag domain names - 'annoying popup', 'spammer', 'dead to me', etc., and then indicate the tags visually next to links/change the colors/something like that, so I can more easily avoid sites that annoy me.
> It would have to be one of the four people with root.

Or anyone who'd ever gotten access to the computer, or installed a camera near it, etc.

The critical part of that answer though, is "one of the". The system fails if any of the individuals is be malicious. A more-robust system would require multiple malicious agents in various organizational silos (security, compliance, management) to fail.

Well, if I got in once it probably phones that home for me.

> you really can't scale up this particular mechanism and keep it secret

Well, it isn't secret. We know the NSA intercepts hardware to muck with it, when needed. Much easier even than planting something in your server room explicitly. Also, they wield NSLs compelling silence and cooperation. It's not like being discovered here or there would stop scare or stop them.

It would probably scale pretty well given that this is the extreme; most people just generate keys on the old debian box in the corner.
All the article is difficult to understand as it just throws information to the reader without getting anywhere.

It does provide a solution though. If someone is still hosting it, you can access it in the same way. Nobody can pull, independently, a specific version down. They could remove their copy and hope nobody else is also providing it, but if it was a big problem other people could quickly start providing it and nobody else would notice the difference.

Perhaps an equivalent thing for "someone will still have to pay for hosting" is that although that's true, anyone can put money into the pot to keep it going or bring it back, it's not reliant on the original creator to keep paying for it.

Discord seems to me like it has a very polished user experience, and it's no surprise that users are trashing programs like Skype in favor of Discord when it is better in every area.

Discord seems to take security seriously, as they should, but I'm curious about their stance on privacy and openness.
For example, I wonder if they would consider:

- Allowing end-to-end encryption to be used between users for private communications

- Allowing users to connect to Discord servers using IRC or other clients (or, at least having an API that easily allows this)[1]

- Allow users to have better control over their own data, such as providing local/downloadable logs so that they can search or otherwise use logs themselves

Discord is definitely succeeding within the gaming market, but I'm curious what other markets they would like to take a stab at.

[1] I'm aware Discord has an API, but if I understand it correctly, normal users cannot easily use Discord from anything other the official Discord apps, as this API is specifically for Discord 'bots'. I see there's a discord-irc bridge, but not much more than that. I may be incorrect on this.

It's only meaningful if you are using a language that has static types, subtyping, and generics. That covers Java, C#, and Dart, but omits Ruby (no static types), SML (no subtyping), and Go (no generics), for example.

If you are a language where it matters, it comes in handy, even though you usually aren't aware of it. You probably already have a correct intuition of it without realizing it.

Say you have a class like:

class Enclosure<T> {
void cage(T item) { ... }
}

And assume some sort of class hierarchy like "Mammal is a subclass of Animal". If you have a method like:

putKittyInCage(Enclosure<Mammal> enclosure, Mammal kitty) {
enclosure.cage(kitty);
}

Is this OK?

putKittyInCage(new Enclosure<Animal>(), kitty);

The method expects an Enclosure<Mammal> and we're giving it an Enclosure<Animal>. Is that allowed? You probably intuitively see that it should be — an Enclosure<Animal> can hold any kind of animal and mammals are all animals. Your intuition is right.

"Contravariance" is the term to describe precisely what that intuition represents.

u = ln(x) and dv = 1

du = 1/x and v = x

integral ln(x) = x ln(x) - integral 1/x times x

integral ln(x) = x ln(x) - x + C

I could give integral arctan(x) but with the advent of computer algebra systems I'm mostly interested in them knowing the basic examples and to not burden them on a test with something more complicated.

EDIT: The derivative of 1/x is not ln(x) as you stated. You got it backwards and my guess is that is the source of your confusion.
