In all seriousness, management who takes things like static analysis results seriously is a valuable asset. We should consider teams that have management like this as superior to the ones who don't. They clearly value foresight and planning and will probably be less likely to host a chaotic/careless work environment.

I am trying to understand the point of your post or at least in what way it's relevant to measure the success of robotic startups.

neither iRobot or Kiva can be called startups any more. Then there is a company like Universal Robots which seems to be doing fine but hardly a startup anymore as it's went public and was bought.

There are plenty of robotics companies which are doing just fine as there are plenty of problems out there needing robotics and there is still some way to go until most organizations have renewed their "machine park" and thus in the market for more optimal solutions.

A startup is by definition almost always no profitable as it haven't found product market fit yet. Once it does that it become just another company or get bought by the big guys.

If you mean were is the Facebook or Google of robotics then sure but I don't think you can apply digital space thinking to the robotics space.

You could say that nVidia is a very successful company because of it's robotics support.

But again not sure I know how to interpret your post (not that there is anything wrong with it)
I was about to post this too, it's my goto example of designers taking themselves a bit too seriously.

Sometimes I fear that this will be the end result of brain research. A vast table that says: when these neurons are activated in this pattern, it means happiness. When these neurons are activated in this pattern, it means the brain is perceiving a tree.

We will understand the brain and consciousness and it will be completely unenlightening...

Hi! I put this guide together and I'm really glad you brought this point up. When I thought of creating this guide, I wanted to make it really easy for beginners to graduate level by level up to quantum gates, which inspired me to instead break the information down in a series.

This Part-1 guide in the series is mean't to educate even complete noobs from how a basic computer works and how we have reached the limits of making them any more powerful. While you are accurate when you say Quantum algorithms can help us exploit the quantum behaviour of qubits, we are particularly interested and motivated to utilize them because we can exponentially increase our computing power.

I have another follow-up guide coming that would take the readers a few more levels up very soon.
Maybe individual people have this attitude, but it is certainly not a tenet of medical/psychological practice.

Agreed. Where I work, I can get a cup of iced coffee at 7-11 for $1, or I can go to a coffee stand and get significantly tastier iced coffee for $4.75. They have roughly the same experience in this case because the coffee stand doesn't have a place to sit.

There's more to it than the small chance of winning the equity lottery. Working for a startup confers a number of non-monetary benefits that mega-corps don't. If you pay a startup-salary and then stick people in a cubicle and have them write TPS reports and deal with petty politics (ie: mega-corp conditions), people won't work for you.

The feeling of working for a company that will make a dent in the world, so to speak, and that your effort will have tangibly supported creation of said dent is a powerful motivator.
We take network transmissions for granted sometimes, TCP/IP has been around so long we assume nothing strange can still happen. But implementations still matter, it only take one strange piece of software or hardware and you wind up with craziness like this.
Getting into a trial usually involves a lot of criteria that the patient has to fulfill (age, subtype and stage of the disease, results of various tests, all kinds of other treatments not working, mutations or lack of them, good performance status, good organ function). If the patient fulfills them their doctor just asks them.

Like most things in Australia I was impressed by Australian mainstream news outlets (coming from the US). I have a memory of reading the comments after an article on a real estate related story published by one of the bigger newspapers and being genuinely impressed by the quality of the reader discussion.

Nope, haven't had to maintain it in years. I did have to port it to Python3 which was a pain & grew it by ~30 bytes. The minifier was myself.

I just want to say that you have a fantastic way of writing that explains these therapies extremely well. I've learned about these therapies in class, but your explanations felt even more fluid.
In olden times it didnt matter what stance you had on sickness. So calling the village crook for tea, performing some rituals, having a good vibe - was like throwing a dice. It could go well.

It could go wrong- nobody was responsible for anything. But today, if you believe in your feelings more then in evidence, and do a steve job on yourself or worser others, for example by spreading fear and missinformation - dont expect nice terms. Your blog cuts out exactly where it would have goten interesting, no details, just whispered warnings and no precision on what the medicine did wrong or your mother did right.

You could have had valid points there. My grandmother survived bone cancer for more then ten years, by not blindly following the chemo treatment as specified by the doctor- which can kill people simply by exausting there body fat reserves (basically starvation). She gave herself breaks to recover and gained 10 (very painfull years).

Its one case, the divergence from treatment is specific and it dosent divolve in doctor bashing, but a treatment warning. This is how its done.

I always had luck and a good experience with the doctors i had contact so i might be biased. Comments like yours prevent some type of people from searching medical help, and turn towards quack sciences/shamans and cultist movements. And thats horrifying, because those people deserve a chance to live. I shall scream murder by missinformation at anyone who doesent deliver precise information.

Your case study on the reopened stitches on the arm was good. Missing where the circumstances when it reopened, and how much longer the doctor should have waited.

Also there is no specifics on what your mum did, that helped against colon cancer. All in all, im sorry to say, it reaks of fortress-think, the idea, that non-family members/outsiders are just careless and plotting to move against you.

I would be happy to reread your blogpost, with more details added. Until then it just doesent seem to add to the conversation.

No one is forcing you to build a new house in South Miami.

If I go to the supermarket, almost every smoothie bottle looks somewhat like the new Soylent bottle. I can't tell if they actually took inspiration from Dieter Rams, but it's really easy to refer to him since he is like the father of modern industrial (consumer) design.

Soylent is an enterprise and they want to make themselves to look as good as possible in order to generate more revenue. No reason not to criticize awkward marketing blog posts like this.

Personally, I don't find "losing" (e.g. making food that isn't good) fun at all, but rather a large waste of time. I would love a recipe that details the quantities of everything I need, and -- yes -- I would (and do) measure down other ingredients when I don't have enough of one, because the minor upfront time cost of doing so outweighs the risk of wasting the entire meal if it turns out bad, IMO.

I recognize that some people enjoy the art of cooking, but I personally don't. I cook to make food so I can survive. Perhaps I just haven't found the right cook books for my demographic.

I do believe they are trying to do something, but it has more to do with marketing and product placement than with design.

Lastly, we did our best to follow the “less but better” teachings of 1960’s Braun designs. These enduring designs are known for their stripped down features and clean lines. No unnecessary buttons or extraneous curves, just what you need; everything in its place.

Your story suggests value in another article focussing on the personalities of Tinsley and Schaeffer.

You can compete on many different fronts such as quality, support, price, features, market focus etc.

Also, they just launched, that means they are just starting as well which tells nothing of possible future success.

As others here have pointed out, it undoubtedly only makes economic sense in a few niche scenarios right now. Premium hyper-local urban boutique veggies used in small quantities, or perhaps supplementing MREs in very remote, isolated military/industrial compounds (possibly including Mars?).

However, if we were facing the specter of a global nuclear winter - or similar effects from a large asteroid impact, ground/water pollution, etc. - I think something would be worked out with regard to the 'cost of renting' large indoor spaces.

What do you mean "block-oriented"? I'd say this is part of Rust's ML heritage, and comes of being expression-oriented: if is just an expression, and evaluates to a value like any other expression.
We do this all the time.

If you want a car you're forced to buy a catalytic converter, it's illegal to buy a car without one and it's illegal to operate a car without one. If you want to drive on public streets you are forced to pay to register your car then on top of that you are forced to buy liability insurance. You're also forced to buy a car seat if you're driving with a small child. In many states you are forced to pay for regular safety and emissions inspections and forced to pay for any negative findings.

It's also generally illegal to dump human waste in your front yard so you're forced to buy a toilet and pay to connect it to the sewage system or pay for a septic tank. And then forced to pay to maintain that septic tank.

You're also forced to buy flame retardant building materials that are structurally sound and appropriate for the location you're building.

Businesses generally have to pay to dispose of environmental waste properly too so that cost is bundled into many products.

Why? Because nobody lives in a bubble where their actions don't have an effect on everyone else around them. We try to balance individual liberties with collective good.

"I've noticed there are two opposing schools of thought on issues of "insane code" like this; on one side there's "use the language to the fullest if it makes sense to", and on the other is "avoid anything that might be the slightest bit confusing".

This is a false dichotomy. How about "use the language to it's fullest, within reason (avoiding things like multiple side effects per source line), but when non-obvious code is written, document it."

At least, I'd say that describes my approach.
