I'm currently seeing a functional medicine MD recommended by my rheumatologist. Functional medicine doctors are really into the gut-immune side and my rheumatologist says he's seen some amazing results. I've been on an elimination diet for about 2 months without results, but in almost every paleo/aip/whole30/pfd cookbook I've been reading, the author's bio says something about recovering from autoimmune disease through diet.
Yes that's right, I paused it to find it before listening to it all the way. It's already included together with the originally linked podcast.
Yeah, what the hell has Stephen hawking ever done for us? Socialized medicine supports the guy, and we get nothing in return.

This podcast mentions that only testing against non-viable embryos has been done. It's worth noting that just the other day, the results of the first testing against viable human embryos was released [0].

Also, I thought it was interesting when they talked about "who would turn down the ability to remove diseases for $x?" My answer would be people who simply don't have that kind of money.

This makes things complicated.

I'm not even close to an expert in this area, but I don't think it's too far a stretch to consider that having technology like this where you can theoretically pick and choose "add ons" for set prices would lead to class divides that are clearly visible when these add ons stop being just internal changes and start including exterior traits.

We write tests.

Really, I find compile time checks to be moot when you have fast running and good unit tests.

Gram for gram or tonne for tonne, most other stuff is much worse. But mile for mile and kWh for kWh, the relative quantity of CO2 more than makes up for its relative harmlessness.

(Except maybe in dirty ships where there is much more of the nasty stuff per tonne of CO2 than in the exhaust gases of any other mode of transportation - they are basically using the skies over international waters to dispose of refinery waste that would be impossible to legally burn anywhere else)
US medical care is much much more expensive than most, if not all, developed world. I'm too lazy for google for source, but there was statistics that US gdp/capita medical expenses are like 2x next country. Even in super expensive countries doctors don't earn as much which is part of the issue.

I'm from rather cheap European country. We're on the receiving end of medical tourism. To cut costs, private hospitals save wherever they can. Nurses (as well as junior doctors) are paid less (gdp-adjusted) than in richer countries. Corners are cut in non-essential (parts of) procedures. Behind-the-scenes equipment is outdated. Anything customer-facing is top notch though.

Yes, and the Touch Bar replaces FN keys, not the keyboard, not the mouse, nor the screen.

> same pros

FN Keys:

• 12

• Have to remember what each number does in each app

• Different numbers remain "fixed" for different functions in different operating systems (e.g. F1 for Help, Alt+F4 for Quit.)

• Not customizable

• Cannot give at-a-glance status without taking up main screen space

----

Touch Bar:

• More than 12

• Not limited by physical space

• Context-sensitive and adaptive

• More types of controls than just buttons

• Customizable

• Can display at-a-glance status such as time, battery etc. [1]

How are these the same pros?

----

> but with an extra con

• Billions of phone/tablet users don't consider touchscreens a con.

• Con does not harm typing experience which is still provided by physical keys.

• Con easily offset by haptic feedback very likely in future gen.

Who's writing native ES6 code? Support for IE8 is just now starting to slip in the community (due too old, mundane things like Object.defineProperty). Almost every package on NPM targets ES3. Also, IE never ran everywhere. Targeting IE8 is hard, targeting IE6 was a nightmare.
I have an autoimmune condition. I've tried: fecal transplant, LDN, helminthic therapy, AIP diet, and ofcourse vitamins/supplements. To varying degrees and with varying side effects, LDN, helminthic therapy, and AIP all work and seem to have the widest application. I would recommend trying AIP first for 14-28 days with vitamins/supplements (length depends on how quick your issues appear/disappear), and possibly adding LDN on top if need be.

LDN and Helminthic therapy both work but aren't very natural, so using them is a quality-of-life decision. The main problem with helminthic therapy is that it takes too long to start/stop.

I would only consider fecal transplant if your issues are predominately digestion related, and I would only bother if regular probiotics are life-changing for you and you want to push that as far as you can. Then again there isn't any good reason to NOT do it; just shame, etc., so go for it (this also applies to LDN and helminthic therapy though, so whatever).

I was very sick for about 8 years and for 3 of those years was pretty debilitated. This year I am finally in a good place. I don't currently eat a restricted diet anymore and I take very few supplements and I don't use any of the above anymore.

Supplements that people find helpful might include: glutamine, beta-glucans, turmeric, D3...

Anyone reading this with an autoimmune condition or who thinks they might can please email me. If you have questions or are struggling, please reach out.
Cost overruns are sadly all too common in construction---especially for anything that goes on below ground. That's where all the surprises are.

Skyscrapers and bridges are less likely to fall down than software is to crash. But that's just different failure modes. Projects are still not very predictable.
Why should it be as far removed from regulation as possible? Why not strike a balance where we regulate certain things that are important to us, and leave open the rest?

More regulation is a good thing if things we as a society deem critical can only be accomplished through regulation.

Should every article about people from historical eras discuss the fact that they held views which were extremely common then, but are uncommon now?

For example, should every article about Lincoln mention his opposition to miscegenation, his views on blacks being unsuitable as voters and jurors (and generally inferior) and his desire for them to emigrate? Should every article about any particular Roman mention their lack of opposition to gladiatorial combat and crucifixion?
So many "alls" (two!) because plenty of paid-for content already exists alongside the free media, and thus your principal complaint is that many news organizations have the temerity to cater to and profit from people that don't want to pay for news as well.

And if the objection is to people being misinformed by clickbait headlines and sensationalised takes on events in articles, I'm struggling to imagine anything that could be more inclined to worsen that situation than increasing the proportion of respectable news organisations that tell people they can pay a monthly fee to access the articles behind the headlines or bugger off and read Breitbart's take on it instead...
If by "here" you mean North America and Western Europe then yes, they will pay the price for their diversity. Places like Japan and China that people say are "xenophobic" might turn out to have the better survival strategy.
The headline is:

> Green finance for dirty ships

Regarding "oxides" it says:

> By burning heavy fuel oil, just 15 of the biggest ships emit more oxides of nitrogen and sulphur—gases much worse for global warming than carbon dioxide—than all the world’s cars put together.

The HN headline is definitely misleading, but I'm struggling to see what you find so objectionable about the article. That sentence, which you haven't even attempted to refute, is simple and specific, and merely sets the stage for an article about finance.

The article certainly never claims that "shutting down 15 ships would not do more to address greenhouse oxide emissions than banning automobiles world-wide". It's only mention of oxides or automobiles is in the sentence above.
I think the reason for this is that the band always claims that they are not paid, but they are almost always lying. So, CBP uses some heuristics, and reasonably concludes that if a band is playing at a bar with an entry fee, they're probably being compensated. I am almost certain that was true in this case.

PayPal wears many hats. During transit, you are correct.

If you're holding funds "in reserve" or otherwise "on deposit" with them, however, the rules are more flexible. For example, if they aren't certain you comply with their internal AML policy, they may have the power to indefinitely hold your funds. If they aren't certain you comply with their internal antifraud policy, they may have the power to indefinitely hold your funds. They may also be able to assess various fees, charges, et cetera against your "balances", whether free or restricted. I say "may" because this varies jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
Because they might have gotten through a CBP officer who's been less anal about it?

That said those bands should also likely have been denied entry without a proper visa.

This isn't a political move, the band didn't had a proper visa and a letter stating "I will not be directly compensated for this" in all honesty isn't sufficient.

This is like that cry blog of some dev being denied entry to the UK and sent back because she didn't had the correct visa, and of course in that case there was a spin again about how horrible UKVI is and about how she was put in the same place as all other illegal immigrants awaiting deportation.

A band performing receives benefits even if these are not direct, if they want to have their asses covered they should've applied for a talent visa like O-1 if league of legends gamers that attend semi-professional tournaments get those with ease they could also gotten it.

I read an amazing book about portfolio allocation a few years back and reallocated my holdings. The thing that impressed me was a historical analysis which showed that, as long as you split your fixed income and equities, you would do quite well. The interesting thing was that you could split them sub-optimially and the whole thing would do well. Getting the proportion exactly right would get you a slightly better return, but much less than I expected.

When the market is charging ahead, it might seem that holding bonds/fixed income might be a waste, but it's really just a form of insurance. Another interesting thing I learned was that holding inversely correlated things led to higher returns and less volatility. So an all-equity portfolio would generally have a slightly smaller return than one with even 5 or 10% fixed income.

Anyways, the book was by a guy named William Bernstein, and his (very dated looking) site is at http://www.efficientfrontier.com/. His book is called the Intelligent Asset Allocator. The first 2 chapters are on the author's site. The book can be ordered from Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews/0071362363/ref=cm_cr_...

No, we already know the outcome of those groups that may or may not have existed and that is that they had no outcome on the current gene pool meaning that in essence they did not exist as far as survival goes.

In your analogy it's like buying 40 lottery tickets knowing that 39 of them will not win for sure vs buying just 1 ticket.

2% dispute rate?! That would get you shut down at every merchant account provider I've ever dealt with. In fact, it's usually 0.5% or 1% max. One major bank gave me 0.25% max. I've never seen an agreement that said 2% was ok.

That's a very serious fraud problem.

I've run an ecommerce store -- the chargeback rate was 0.1% (seriously, I calculated this from actual #s).

Nothing in this story (except maybe the customer service issues) would be out of the ordinary for any merchant account.

Edit: fixed chargeback rate

I think at least one of the big tech firms will be unionized within the next five years, with more following soon after. I think initially people already employed will be grandfathered in without any licensing requirements. But within a few years, I think folks are going to have to demonstrate basic knowledge of security principles in order to become union members.

I don't think you will need a certification to work in the industry in the immediate future, but I think that tech employers will have a clear choice in choosing between union and non union employees.
It worked very well for me but made me extremely (scarily) restless (mentally too) and screwed my sleep up beyond belief. I never tried dosing during the day, though. Feel free to email me.
I can't imagine how people have such an incorrect view of how insurance works.

No, car insurance is not you subsidizing other people. Car insurance is you paying in proportion to your own estimated risk. That means if your expected costs are 5x higher (nicer car, young driver, etc.) you pay 5x more.

Medical insurance in the US emphatically does not work this way. More expensive people don't pay proportionately more than cheap people, meaning that the expensive people are being subsizidized. You should be alarmed at the fact that you apparently fundamentally misunderstood the way insurance works in an open market, or what the ACA is. The only part of the ACA that is even reminiscent of car insurance is the individual mandate, which is actually way worse than car insurance because you don't need to buy car insurance just for being alive. You only need car insurance if you drive on public roads.

It's too bad that your friend has a disease, but I'd rather have them pay for it than pass the bill off to a bunch of innocent people who aren't sick. If you choose to have tunnel vision and focus on health alone, it's worth noting that the second-order effects of making other people's lives more expensive will also include worsened health from poorer nutrition, increased stress, less frequent medical consultation, etc.

This is super light on concrete info, can we have some examples of this house of cards? and of angels getting screwed?
You're committing the same mistake that is expressly argued against in the story. The story is directly criticises rationality taken too far; it's advocating a triumph of will to achieve. Who are you to say that the mission is more likely to fail without someone with that will to succeed, and instead with yet another rationalist who will lose hope when their models tell them it won't work out? Who will give up the swim when they see no way back to shore?

Teams generally work better with a mix of different people, rather than uniformity. I'd be willing to bet that if the scenario was real, the mix would work better.
I think this is pretty easy. We as people have likes, dislikes (i.e. preferred states), desires, etc. We also identify with these preferred states and desires. Furthermore, we have the capacity to alter the world and our behavior to bring about these preferred states and desires. To put it another way, we can alter our behavior for the sake of achieving desired goals.

This is a higher level of self control than a calculator in that it has no capacity to alter its behavior. If a calculator had preferred states, it has no capacity to alter its behavior to achieve those preferred states.

Now, we still don't have the capacity to change our will and so we don't have "ultimate" (contra-causal) free will. But I think its pretty clear that we have more control than a calculator.

iOS is like that too. It keeps all programs running by default, and then when memory gets low it'll start killing them. It starts with backgrounded apps that aren't doing anything, and kills the current foreground app as a last resort.

Apps are supposed to be built to tolerate being killed while in the background and restoring their state when relaunched, so in theory this will mostly be invisible to the user other than apps taking longer to reload. In practice, lots of apps don't get this right.

Paypal no longer allows users to make credit card payments without an account[1]. Prior to this, paypal gave you access to an audience of anyone with a credit card. Now that they don't, your low-friction audience is restricted to people with actively used paypal accounts, which is pretty much 15-30 year old guys, and no one else. If you know anything about online sales, you'll know that any increased friction at checkout is a bad thing. Requiring people to make a paypal account at checkout time is probably dropping 20% of all customers and 70% of customers over 50. If you wanted to know why physical shops still exist, that's why.

You get a vastly wider reach with plain old Visa/Mastercard support, because anyone with a credit card can use it, no signup required. All adults have at least a Visa Electron (or regional equivalent), even if they don't have a real credit card, because that's what banks give out by default these days. Hell, most children will have them.

Normal credit card support is fine.

[1] By default at least. Paypals documentation[2] states this is still possible, but I haven't seen it work on any paypal shop for around a year, so either it's broken and they don't care or maybe no one reads the docs?

Yup. Business problems only rear their ugly heads after you've immersed yourself in the daily work AND if you reflect critically on what you're doing. This usually takes time because when you first start working you usually don't even know what you know or don't know.
But that's quibbling over the poster's word choices and narrowing and distorting the understanding of people reading these posts.

Yes I totally believe that part of the static vs. dynamic debate is different use cases.

However I will point out that probably 80% of the world's top websites are written in dynamic languages -- Wikipedia, Facebook, Yahoo, YouTube, Reddit, etc. (that's not even counting the JavaScript.)

So there is something about that use case and dynamic languages... That's not to say a language is great because it's used widely. But it means that it must be getting something right, and not doing other things too badly.

So yeah all I'm saying is that there's a tradeoff. If there's was no tradeoff, then it would have never have swung toward dynamic languages in the 90's/2000's. It's not like we didn't have statically typed languages before the web. But things swung that way, and it sounds like they're swinging back, with PHP, Python, and JavaScript all getting optional types in one way or another.
