It's some years now, and there were at least two courses in which it could have been. The one was elected, HCI. The other was not, it was an introduction into graphics and audio, and since you need to understand basics of human perception to understand compression in that area (jpg, mp3), they talked about stuff like that.

A good CS degree definitely has the space to teach some basics in that area. To mention Gestaltgesetze, to explain human perception a bit, and give an introduction into usability. You do not get a useful developer in the end otherwise
That's the obvious retort, but if you think about it, it's easy. Simply don't do things that imply bad faith (rhetorical questions, irrelevant distraction, drive-by swipes, grandiose posturing—all of which you managed to cram in there) and instead do some things that imply good faith, like taking responsibility and finding common ground.
I don't think it's reasonable to say "often". It seems like known cases were heavily covered in the press and involved criminal prosecutions. From what I can see, it seems to have been running around one death per year in developed countries.

I get what you're saying, but that's a pretty extreme view. Parenthesis are obviously syntax, even if they look similar to the notation used to represent ASTs in other languages. They are minimal syntax, but they're still syntax (also, lisps have `"@' and sometimes {}[]).

Just because this is the internet, I'll also disagree with your second point. Lisp programmers use white space and macros to make programs more readable. Despite this, lisp's adoption trails many less powerful languages that offer more intuitive syntax. Since lisp's metaprogramming facilities allow it to effectively simulate pretty much every other style of programming, the only explanation that I can come up with for this situation is that intuitive syntax matters a lot (at least for language adoption).
As someone who has used SAS for many, many different projects: it is terrible, vastly inferior to Pandas or R, and the only reason to ever use it is when you're forced to. Even simple stuff like functions that operate on data have to be hacked on with macros.

Case in point, your production SAS code could be replaced with this Pandas code (and the R code would look very similar):

temperatures[[TEMPERATURE_COLUMNS]].apply(lambda t: (t > 160).sum(), axis=1)

or if your data is in proper long form

data.groupby('time').temperature.gt(160).sum()
I am nowhere near those levels, but if you are in the low 7's you are probably still fine investing in index funds. However, there are probably a few investment options that would start making sense:

1. Real estate investments can be very attractive due to access to cheap financing and tax benefits. Obviously there is risk (avoid those bubbles), but if you play it smart and find cash flow positive rental properties, you will probably net much better returns than the stock market.

2. As you get higher on the wealth ladder, finding tax savings starts to show good ROI. So you might want to hire an advisor or an accountant to help with that.

3. The standard advice for us normal folk is to have ~6 months of rainy day funds in a savings account. If you are in the 7 figures, you might want to map out some worst case scenarios to get a sense of how much risk tolerance you have and what you would need to 'survive' those bad scenarios. If I had moderate wealth, I would probably make sure I had a few years worth of living expenses stashed away somewhere. Also, I would probably have a nice mix of bonds, gold and other safe(ish) assets. This leads into #4

4. While I might keep a higher % in safer assets than I do now, I would probably try and balance that with some more riskier assets. At higher levels of wealth you have access to a much wider array of investment opportunities (lookup 'accredited investor'). For the most part, these investment classes suffer the same issues as actively managed funds (generally perform worse than the market, after fees. Look up 'average VC, PE, and hedge fund returns'). But the one advantage here is that, unlike index funds, you also have a (small) chance of hitting astronomical returns (ex: angel investor in a unicorn). So it could make sense to allocate a small portion of your portfolio to these types of investments. As mentioned, the average expected outcome is probably worse than just investing in index funds, but an index fund will never return 1000x where as there is a small chance that an angel investment might.

So the tldr is that there is nothing wrong with index funds, especially at the low 7's (and probably even into the 8's). But most people at those levels have much more complicated financial lives (own a business, have a bunch of real estate investments, need to worry about inheritances, etc..) that the standard advice about index funds becomes less suitable. For example, Warren Buffet, the champion of index funds, probably has the vast majority of his wealth locked up in BRK.

Dropping such bombs on cities cannot be said to be "purely military". Was Truman really not aware of the targets, or was he being dishonest in his diary?

According to the Wikipedia article [1], Truman was not in the Target Committee, but he was for instance approached about removing Kyoto from the list, so he was aware of the nature of the possible targets.

Self talk.

Nothing helps like talking to yourself. Build narratives and counter narratives and try to analyze the situation at hand. It's like taking a third person perspective for the sole reason of analyzing what happened, and why it happened.

Try to avoid getting into solutions mode. Don't even try to think about how you can improve or change the situation. Just understand and spend some time thinking about what exactly happened.

> Some claim that index funds such as vanguard are also not guaranteed to continue being a safe bet once everybody and their dog switches to them vs managed funds

Managed versus index funds works not unlike the 50% rule of bitcoin; If managed funds / individual stocks start regularly performing better, money will flow into them (overpricing) and fees will rise so that index funds are underpriced.

There are no guarantees in future performance; and your index fund is also not diversified from macro economy risk.

The most plausible explanation is someone needs to "use up the budget".

In case you're curious, this has actually been studied recently. Researchers compared funding in US and Canada and found that

- science impact is a decelerating function of funding amounts

- science impact plateaus around $700k for a lab or project

- ancillary impact benefits include more diversity by funding more groups with smaller amounts instead of fewer groups with larger amounts

In all of this, science impact is measured in publication rates, citation rates, and most cited articles over a four year period.

Possibly because there actually wasn't any limit. Maybe if a handful people were exceeding $LOTS TB, they don't care, but if 60% of users exceed $LOTS TB, the service becomes unsustainable. In this case, the service really is unlimited (there genuinely is no limit that you're not allowed to go over), and if you wanted that effect, advertising a limit would be net negative — a high limit would encourage the "too many users use a lot" case and lead to the same result we get now where the plan has to be canceled for unsustainability, and a low limit would defeat the purpose.

Sure, but you can't live in your Index Fund. Housing is already a sunk cost for everybody. You're either paying rent and getting nothing out of it or getting a mortgage and at the end of it you have an actual owned asset.
The problem in the U.S. isn't that costs are hidden--in Canada, with fully socialized insurance, health care consumers are actually much less wasteful of resources because they pursue health care in the degree they feel they need it, irrespective of money. Some are constant complainers craving attention, some are tough-as-nails cowboys who don't need a doctor to pull the bullet out; overall, Canadians are pretty reasonable about their as-needed consumption, as demonstrated by per-capita health care spending.

The problem in the U.S. is that health care costs are directly tied to your employer, mostly, because the employer is the cost-savings insurance pool you join. This creates a lot of terrible situations where people are stuck in jobs they can't afford to leave for medical reasons; or are stuck with medical problems that prevent them from getting hired. What was originally supposed to be a social contract where you work hard to have a good career, and your boss takes care of the ugly bits of life like cancer, has turned into a tight coupling of disjoint life issues that usually creates the worst possible outcome in both cases.

Medicaid is terrible largely because it's legislatively hobbled to prevent it exercising market power (like negotiating bulk pricing for pharmaceuticals, because doing so would embarrass capitalism somehow), and otherwise regulation driven for political purposes, like capping payments for procedures at below market rates, causing them to be excluded from a large number of health care providers who don't need to submit to price controls. The U.S. health care system is like a graduate thesis in perverse incentives.
It varies quite a bit: Silk Unsweetened Almondmilk is 30 kcal/cup, while their Unsweetened Soymilk is 80 kcal/cup (still less than dairy milk, but by a factor of 2 instead of over 5). As maxerickson pointed out, sweetened ones also have more calories, but that's not necessarily a great nutritional improvement (e.g., Silk Chocolate Soymilk is 120 kcal/cup, with a whole bunch of refined sugar in there).

I think you can choose a nutrition profile quite a bit closer to dairy milk in many respects if you specifically want to, but it's going to depend on how your particular product was processed, sweetened, and fortified.
"Not now" is something even Google does quite frequently.
With amazon doing this I am sure now all those people will be frantically signing up for Google. I am sure it will eventually happen that Google enforces the limit. And I would bet sooner rather then latter.

For my personal use case it isn't a huge deal since I just use it as a back-up for work stuff, music and pictures. It is nice to know that if I am at Taco Bell and my apartment burns down I am not totally screwed.

And even if the limit is enforced I will get my mom and my sister and my sisters kids accounts and call it a Christmas present. They are always running low on storage.

If facts work against your theories, as a scientist, there is nothing you can do. You can deny facts all you want it doesn't matter. At the end of the day the scientific community will put your theories in the trash.

There is nothing to prove or to disprove with religion, it's based on faith, not on facts. If you're a christian you believe Jesus actually multiplied fishes. IF you're a muslim, you believe your prophet talked to archange Gabriel. These aren't facts. The existance of "angels" is not a fact, no more than the ability for men to multiply fishes.

You can't bullshit the scientific community forever with theories that aren't backed by anything.

User are encouraged to flag content the judge off-topic. And the definition of off-topic is quite broad:

On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

Probably people don't find their intellectual curiosity gratified by the umpteenth post about Trump. Also consider that many users are not American.
No, the way to fix it is to create incentives that align for everyone. As with healthcare, the way we do infrastructure work in the US creates incentives that are aligned against some party to the process. In healthcare, it's the patient.

Constraining the supply (or at least deliberately shaping the flows) of some capital, in some cases could — probably even would — help align them, but to suggest that "constrain all of the capital!" is the TL;DR of Marohn's thesis reads more to me like you might have had some biases confirmed than it does a summary.

EDIT: Particularly when your comment seems also to assign a hefty chunk of the blame for the state of infrastructure work to the infrastructure worker.

Also, phrasing.
I was referring to the relative accessibility. You need $50k (or $25k if we're going for 10% down) to even start living in the median house. Even a $100k house would require you to save up $10-20k. $2.5k is a far lower bar to start building wealth.
Many of the things you list are indeed annoyances when doing data analysis in Python and they make things harder than they should be, but others are typical grievances I see from people new to it, and these do actually go away once you've been working with e.g. Pandas for longer.

> Pandas, one of the biggest "offenders", is trying to be an in-memory database with only one table but ends up having far fewer features and a far clunkier interface (want to do a simple map/reduce? Welcome to chaining a strange combination of '.loc', '&', and ':,' "operators").

What makes Pandas so great is that you can apply arbitrary functions to rows and columns, with the full expressivity of Python. In some cases it might be clunkier (though you should almost never need `.loc` and other indexing methods) but mostly it's just `df.groupby(...).apply(...)` or vectorized methods like `df.column + df.other_column`. This is a huge improvement over having half of your analysis in database queries and half in a programming language.

> Matplotlib is unintuitive and poorly documented

Try https://seaborn.pydata.org/ for statistical graphics.

> Pandas also implements it's own versions of standard python objects! You need to know, and go back and forth between two, ways of doing things.

This sucks but is unavoidable, because Python does not have fast data types with support for missing values built in, so all your columns would have to be of mixed type (the actual type + None) and everything would slow down and simple things like computing the mean of a column with missing values would not work.

Note that you don't actually "need to go back and forth" because Pandas will happily convert plain Python objects to their Numpy equivalents for you.

> 3. All these libraries separate logically grouped concepts.

It's not functional, you're just going to have to deal with that. But split-apply-combine and similar patterns are quite elegant in Pandas: http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/groupby.html

> 4. Because everything is meaningless lists of numbers there are no ways to reuse code.

A lot of data analysis is throw-away code. Some of it can be abstracted into reusable code, some of it can't.

Lastly, don't forget that Python does have a lot of things going for it when it comes to data analysis, from geospatial tools (http://toblerity.org/shapely/) to Bayesian modeling (http://pymc-devs.github.io/pymc3/index.html), as well as interactive coding with Jupyter and Hydrogen for the Atom editor (https://github.com/nteract/hydrogen).
