So THAT is why many people get it so wrong. I never understood (as a non-native speaker from a 24h country, I still struggle with pm/am and have to look it up every time, so I get why other non-natives may mix it up, but I'm seeing I.e./e.g. confusion mostly among native English speakers... for whom the Latin origin must be a similar situation I now realize).
Nils Frahm's Screws Reworked is usually tagged 'new classical' but certainly has roots in the same space as Avril 14th. New classical as a whole is an interesting genre.
Surely something that emitted pure greenhouse gases, no large particles or soot but disastrous for the climate would be pollution, by definition?

I'm thinking that better for the climate (wood pellets) but worse for (what GP defines as) pollution is a trade off, and probably people are going to argue about that balance, but at the end of the day if we pollute the planet today and just hope our grandchildren will be able to fix the problem or suffer the consequences then that is pretty poor.
Nicely put... wish I had tried Emacs sometime. I can relate to what you are saying as I use Vim commands/shortuts everywhere from my Window manager, browser to custom key mapping of lkjh for arrow keys on my ergodox keyboards..
UX is nice, though I wouldn't call it efficient (off-site AJAX calls just to fetch a few blobs of text that should be a property of the site anyway). Then again, Disqus is not a comment system, it's a social network, so - tracking aside - it's fine if you care about its extra features (mostly site cross-marketing).
There is another big (in my eyes) downside to using Reddit for such purpose: Reddit threads are automatically archived after six months, at which point no new comments can be added to them. Of course nothing stops a user from creating a fresh thread, but that leads to fragmentation of comments and if you want to somehow mitigate this, it introduces additional effort.
Deep Learning for Program Synthesis
We should also remember that she graduated like 15 years ago, about the same time I did. The world was VERY different back then. Her style of management reflects the generation she was created from. Unlike her peers, she was unlucky enough to have had access to enough funding to last this long. As a result, the damage done is larger than was typical even back then but also ending at a time when it would stand out. Companies like Theranos collapsed all the time in SV in the late 90s and no one thought anything of it as a result. It's not an excuse but from the looks of it, her hole was too deep by the time trends change to do a course correction.

Let's also not forget that she pursued a vision that was severely flawed, no different than many college students today even. She made a lot of mistakes that many of her peers made at the same age. She's just really unlucky at this point.
In theory, that is great. In practice, it does little to level the playing field.

Many capable high school students are not even aware that schools like Stanford exist, and cannot even begin to conceive what acceptance into such a radically different world would even mean. I surely didn't. It is also possible that those students who are aware, and do aspire to receive this aid, have family members who actively sabotage their efforts.

The bar for 'millionaire' is significantly lower than it once was. Inflation, combined (in some markets) with huge raises in property values, basically means that anyone who's paid their house off is likely to qualify.

A total net worth (including real estate etc.) of more than a million dollars doesn't imply that someone's particularly wealthy the way it once did.
It's about pricing back in what is now externality. It's about making things fair. Which is the basis of living in a society. For max freedom, people should move to Somalia.
The fact that insurance needs to be subsidized has more to do with the extreme possibilities--one bad accident and the insurer is broke. Insurers exclude terrorism and war for the same reason. And for the same reason the government effectively subsidizes those risks by giving aid after such events.

Also, a nuclear plant will be responsible for any and all externalities. You can't hide a radiation incident. Whereas coal can poison thousands of people for years and the emitter and their insurer would never have to worry about liability. Likewise, thousands of solar panel installers can become disabled and draw benefits without anybody blaming the industry, or even thinking to compare with injury rates for similar work at nuclear plants.

Finally, the costs imposed on nuclear power by unnecessarily burdensome regulation far exceed any subsidies. If there was a less regulated market there'd be many more nuclear plants. There'd also probably be many more, albeit mostly minor, nuclear incidents, just like there are many incidents with coal (e.g. fly ash reservoir breaches). But in any event, as things stand we only demand perfection from one industry while accepting some number of externalities as the cost of doing business in every other industry.
I think it's possible to write something using the Reddit API, but I didn't look into it:

If it's a new project, I wouldn't worry about the extra click until you start getting some comments (yeah I realize it's a bit circular, but true). My experience is that you will get comments from the aggreggators that the traffic came from, e.g. HN. And maybe Twitter and Facebook.

Most people aren't used to posting comments on websites anymore. But I do get a few comments on Reddit, and it has been worth it.
Actually, it turns out that they also fabricated data on their test (Herpes I think) and they ended up having to send out letters to tens of thousands of customers who got false positives. They must be pissed... think of all the damage those have caused.

That's exactly it. In many cases it seems Americans pay just as much as Europeans, but get much less value in return. They pay more for healthcare than anyone else, yet have shorter life expectancy. They even pay a lot of socialized healthcare (Medicare) which isn't accessible for most people. They pay for public education but complain about the poor quality. For higher education, the options are to go deep into debt or opt for a low-pay career. They pay for police that's likely to shoot them and take their stuff. And then they pay for an excessive military and government corruption. (Alright, slight hyperbole, but only slight.)

I think dogmatic belief that laissez-faire capitalism is always more efficient, has prevented them from looking for efficiencies elsewhere.

Interestingly, in India this would have close to zero impact. Because of the rate of industrial growth combined with a massive shortfall of energy - almost everyone in urban India has private diesel-fueled electrical generators (yes - including individual homes and small startups).

Plus as a cultural thing, Indians have designed power failure into their daily lives. Interestingly trivia - the most popular Nokia phone in India was the one that had a dedicated torch.

Or maybe they just don't share the philosophy. Or are opposed to it. A lot of Node enthusiasts also come across as douchey and condescending as they claim that people just haven't grasped the language or its philosophy.

I think Node is absolutely fine. But I see why someone who values robustness and error-reduction as primary goals or someone that has a firm grasp on other asynchronous models might not see many advantages to Node. Just as some people value stability higher than progress, neither is necessarily evil, just beliefs.

People have different priorities and Node delivers on some and is not geared towards others.

But I don't find Nodes async, single thread model very interesting or revolutionary. It is very pragmatic and definitely useful but I found the Erlang VM and Elixir a much more compelling solution for example.

Except... there is no social contract of the world, and never has been.

You're imagining a global social contract because it makes you feel good. Pure wishful thinking.

In reality, nobody in India or Africa believes they have any responsibility to you in the slightest. They would gladly loot everything you have without the slightest concern for your rights. So it is with perhaps 85% of the world population (e.g. the part outside the West). If they feel themselves to have no responsibility for you whatever, there is no contract, because contracts have two sides.

> it's probably the single most common argument people bring up against UBI.

I disagree with this statement. The most common argument I see is that it's prohibitively expensive (e.g. we would have to triple our GDP while simultaneously dealing with the fact that we would lose a significant chunk of the labor force).

> endless invention of utterly nonsense jobs (dig a hole, fill it up, dig a hole, fill it up...)

You are going to need a citation for this being the obvious outcome. Every advancement that has wiped out massive amounts of industries has just resulted in an increase in expectations for quality of life for members of society and subsequently demand for new things creating more jobs.

Heavy machinery wiped out a massive chunk of the labor force a long time ago, yet they moved onto to other jobs providing products/services built on top of the new wealth created by the machinery.

If everyone took your view of replacement jobs being pointless, we would have never advanced once we reached the point of having the technology required to feed people consistently.
Not the concept perhaps, but certainly the practical implementation in the US.

I read speculation somewhere that the first track of that album is the finished product, and the other tracks are works in progress or mood/jam palettes or investigatory scraps of various parts, some of which went unused. When I listened through with that in mind it made sense (and made the album more approachable), and the track titles may indeed support that theory. But, as with all things Aphex Twin, we are left to interpret on our own -- who knows?
SOX compliance is overblown. If it was that arduous no one would go public, and that's clearly not the case.
I think everyone agrees that when UBI is introduced the minimum wage should be removed. Hopefully this will allow everyone to do a job that produces a little bit of value to the world.
I recommend that you learn from the world around you. This is a long since addressed problem. This is the way that the daemontools world has been addressing logging since the middle 1990s, and there is a lot of design and implementation experience to draw upon and learn from.

The ideas of decoupling logs from lifetimes of the the things being logged, desynchronized log-watcher services that ship logs to central off-machine log stores, logging chains, shims for things that talk to syslog over AF_LOCAL or UDP sockets, shims for things that talk to the systemd journal using its idiosyncratic logging protocol, compartmentalized logging services that are protected by the operating system from compromises to the logged services, and persistent log pipes that do not lose log data; have all been designed and implemented.

Put simply, smallers organisms run hotter...have a higher metabolic rate. If you've ever felt the heartbrat of a cat, chicken, or hamster youll notice that it is significantly higher than your own, thus they require more oxygen relative to their size. Interestingly, the article points out that they become someone anaerobic metabolizing fructose, which doesnt require O2, throughout the body as a source of energy instead of glucose

Many people assume metabolism is proportional to surface area based on the argument above. This idea was first proposed by Max Rubner in 1883. In the 1930’s, Max Kleiber proposed that metabolism increases according to body mass raised to the power 3/4. If metabolism were proportional to volume, the exponent would be 1. If it were proportional to surface area, the exponent would be 2/3. But Kleiber’s law says it’s somewhere in between, namely 3/4.

Its not clear which, if either, theory is correct. But both agree t

Typed Racket runs after macro expansion, performing analysis on fully-expanded code. This technique runs as part of macro expansion, rather than after. The upshot is that macros get to use and generate type information, so language and type system features like typeclasses or GADTs can be library-provided macros.

'Collaboration' Creates Mediocrity, Not Excellence
You can even pyrolyse methane, and the result us pure hydrogen and pure carbon. This is a side reaction to the most commonly process used to produce acetylene from methane, and this can be tuned to produce mostly carbon and hydrogen. The disadvantage of this method is that it is less economical, since only half the hydrogen is produced per unit of methane compared to steam reforming.
There are plenty of very wealthy people with enough money to never have to work again at a relatively young age, who continue working well into their 70s. It just depends if you love what you do.

No. Once in a while you still see old cars with yellow lights though.

They don't, especially in SV. Several of them have written about this. Beyond some cursory checks, they don't do much since it's often too expensive and time consuming to investigate every possible deal. A strong team with good connections and referrals is usually enough.

Ask HN: Flow in practice (JS type checking)
Has someone experience with introducing flow[1] in a large codebase? I’m primarily interested in practical aspects:

- does the extra overhead really pay off in terms of code quality?

- did you just annotate your own code or did you go down the entire road with flow-typed[2] and custom module mappers?

- how long did it take everyone to understand the limitations and how flow differs from a proper type system? (Especially more junior devs.)

- would you use it again and if so, is there anything you would do better?

Grammatical inference learns a grammar from a set of examples, where here it seems the paper is learning a program (a derivation in the grammar) from examples.

Which Dawn Song paper are you talking about here? I think among all the recent approaches proposed recently on neural program induction, this is the first one that is end-to-end trained and learns only from input-output examples without any hacks!
I'm a Dutch freelancer too, but my experience is very different. As a ZZPer I get a lot of tax cuts. The new DBA law does make it harder, and I may need to start paying the same taxes and premiums everybody else does, which might cost me 30% of my net income. Quite a bit, but that also emphasizes the sweet deal I got so far.

The VAT just means I can deduct way more VAT than normal salaried employees.

I do have a wife an kids, but the money I get for the kids isn't that much in comparison to my income, and I assure you that kids are far more expensive than that. My wife's income is slightly higher than mine, so that has no impact on the tax bracket I end up in.

Netherland isn't perfect (I'd really like to see a left-wing government here for a change; we'd been having right-wing or centrist governments for decades, and the current trend is even more right-wing as well as xenophobic), but I'm not sure where I'd want to emigrate. Sweden is among the top contenders, though.
just posted that I found a serious bug in the github comment API last month and to my knowledge this hasn't been fixed yet, or at least their support hasn't acknowledged that it's fixed yet. The bug affects pages with 500+ comments, it will return duplicate comments instead of the unique set of comments. For example if you had comments: [1,2,3,4], it would sometimes return [1,1,3,4].

Aid workers at least bring money to the country through drinking beer and consuming local products.

They do improve peoples lives. The people re-digging wells have a job.

Same here about finding resources for language design.

I wish there was some course that could teach me language design so that I can (better) predict how my decisions will affect the final result.

Plus how much can reasonably I "pack" into the language [1] in terms of notation and cognitive load when used.

Maybe some resource about choosing notation would be nice too (as opposed to parsing notation once chosen). When I try to pick many ideas from different places, I'm sometimes surprised by collisions in notation.

In general, I have to idea in what model I have to run my estimates.

What are some examples of consequences taught through the course you linked to?
