It's hairsplitting at that point, though-- somewhat reminds me of similar issues in biology with classifying organisms.

Most SQL database packages are designed to have a wide range of queries stored with the database (many will always only exist in front ends or developer tools, of course), for several reasons. One reason is that it sheds light on data structure and business logic. Another is avoiding needless duplication, since a particular snapshot which seems only to be needed today may often be needed again.

Perhaps it would be better if there was more tidy separation of data vs. logic, it's hard to say until someone finds a way to do it that's a clear improvement for everyone. We have to work with the tools we've got right now, though, and straying too far from established practices just makes your work harder for the next person to decipher.

> you get to just walk away and retire with oodles of money from your illicit stock selling and severance packages? There is no justice sometimes.

Retiring is not protection against criminal charges.

Also, there would be oodles of money involved in the case of firing, resignation, or staying on anyway.
I don't know if it remains true, because they had started an underwater mapping by drone project. But, until recently, or perhaps still, we had more accurate maps of the surface of the moon than we had maps of the bottom of the oceans.

There is a bunch of stuff we have left to do. There's still a constant stream of discoveries being made in the depths of the oceans.

The science is hardly settled and, I suppose, that's what makes it so exciting. We have critters we can't even fully understand how they survive, and then we have all sorts of smaller mysteries. Like eels... We only first observed them mating just a couple of years ago, and that was just a single species.

There is no general sorting algorithm that is faster than O(n log n) worst case. But when sorting only happens once then the value of (n log n) is a constant and the running time of search is (log n + c) where c is some fraction of (n log n) amortized across each (log n) search.

The big O for (log n + c) is O(log n).

However, you can do better by memoizing the search to get O(1) speed in exchange for O(n) space. But that's probably not in keeping with the parameters of the exercise.

It depends entirely on the lender.

Most of my large medical bills end up going to a debt collector and they tend to 2-3 times a day per collector. But, they're not jerks on the phone at least, and try to setup a payment plan.

However, I had one MRI that was ~$2000 (typical) and after ~6 months they lowered it to like $400-600. That's the only time any medical provider cut me a deal. Oh, actually, one debt collector gave me a large discount for paying it all in a one-time payment.

But I've never had someone simply "not" attempt to collect their debt.
Even following the rules you still save time because you're at the top of the queue with the lead car every time. When I bike into work I never have to wait 3-4 turns of the light to proceed.

I wish you luck with the ebike, but personally i feel like they're problematic.

It could just be our roads here though; the issue I find is that they're too fast for bike lanes [risk to cyclists], but too slow for the road [cars frequently pass them at higher speeds and very close-by]. It seems like everyone is frustrated and the ebikers are just being pushed around by everyone.

As the source of the article indicates[1] they realized they didn't know how to make FOGBANK in the year 2000, and what they had was manufactured from 1975 until 1989. There's only an 11 year difference between 1989 and 2000, and a 25 year difference between 2000 and 1975.

It's not at all beyond the realm of possibility that the people who developed the process or were intricately familiar with it were still around.

I don't know how but somehow power cut hasn't been a thing in my hometown - Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Maybe privatization has helped.

My own opinion: the navigation system seems overcomplicated. I don't see this beating workflowy as it stands.
Your edit is my one problem with the bike sharing programs in cities. As an everyday commuter if I see someone on their own bike it's usually a pretty safe assumption that they're aware of their surroundings. The casual riders make a lot of dangerous decisions because of their lack of awareness and I usually just end up waiting for some space to pass them as quickly as possible.
I've been to NCR, my wife is from there. I find this effort laughable considering the lack of infrastructure and absolutely ZERO building codes including electrical codes. They need 1) electrical codes, 2) building codes, 3) where is the power coming from?
Many people predicted citibikes would be dangerous, but they were surprisingly accident-free for quite some time. You might have the impression that they're badly ridden, but the data suggests they're actually safe.

There might be a bit of memory tricks going on -- you remember the things that stand out, but not the boring riders stopping at the light.
What's your reasoning behind this? When all the dumb money is in, it's time to get out?
> Nothing works nearly as well by comparison.

Depends on what you mean by "well". It would be foolish of me to deny the advances of deep learning. However, there are limitations and the NEF can act as a bridge in those cases. For example, if you want:

1. To approximate a dynamic system
2. To use symbolic computation
3. Use the neural networks as an initial guess at a solution to a problem and then want to use gradient descent to figure out the actual solution

I talk about using NEF as a bridge in [this blog post](https://medium.com/@seanaubin/deep-learning-is-almost-the-br...), if you're curious. Unfortunately, I don't know of any examples using the "initial guess" paradigm that I describe, but that's more of a "not enough people using Nengo" problem.
We must first establish what laws we believe we they have broken and that are likely to be provable beyond reasonable doubt in court. I'd rather due process than revenge without due process.

I think you may have picked up on something there, talking about a "static society". I remember reading a comment from Hamilton at one point (possibly in the fore/afterword?) that the goal of the Night's Dawn trilogy was to write about a society so stable and stagnant that change has to be forced upon it from without. And while the Commonwealth saga may not have shared the same explicit premise, there were definite parallels.
I wonder if this is a complete list of his cases. Given that he's been a laywer for 7 years, I'm inclined to think not, but I can't say I'm familiar enough with the legal world to judge the quality of this source.
What kind of e-bikes do people have in Canada? Electric-assist types, or ones with a throttle?

In Europe the assist-type is way more common, limited to 25 km/h and at least in Germany the stereotypical user is an elder person that now suddenly can go a bit faster and go comfortably up hills.
If I drive my vehicle recklessly, even if nobody is injured (or no property), I can receive a citation, risk having my license revoked, and risk being arrested.

Why is it that American corporations and their leadership have less oversight than your average 15 year old driver? They keep reminding us of corporate personhood when it is convenient, but where is the personhood responsibility?

Companies aren't going to spend money on security until the potential costs impact them rather than others (in this case all of us). That's something that urgently needs to change. As you can see by Equifax's stock, nobody in the stock market thinks that the governments are going to punish or collapse Equifax, and the worst part is that they're likely right (see BP for example).

This too big to fail, too big to jail, too big to punish thing is really starting to get on my nerves. Even if we aren't ready to send corporate executives to prison, let's at least fine Equifax so much they go out of business, and it sends a shot across every other business's bow about what will happen if they mishandle sensitive information.
Joins are the thing that make relational databases worth using. It's not about creating the correct representation of the data; it's about providing the correct data with the correct relationships. The power of the relational database is that it can accommodate data of almost any shape and allows for just about any kind of access. Embedding the 'shape' of your data in your application makes it more fragile and gives you less control, not more.
You should ask your local government for dedicated biking infrastructure then.

What is your "go to" web interface for displaying/visualizing data?

I use Oracle APEX because it has a killer "interactive report" feature (ie a data grid on steroids), which enables non-programers to easily filter, aggregate,export,report on, etc, the data. However, although APEX is a free option that comes with the DB, it ties you to Oracle.

It would be great if there was a similar, database independent, low-code tool like APEX out there, so am curious what you have seen to work well.
You're right, my use of the term 'broken' was a bit harsh but this summer was particularly bad in terms of track fires, delays, station shutdowns, and persistent subway signal system problems, so much so that 'fixing the subway' has become a major talking point of the mayoral race.
I've seen both, the Electric-assist seem less common [or maybe just harder to identify?]. The ones that I see as not really fitting in are the larger ones that look kind of like an electric Vespa.
Ask HN: Feedback on a ClojureScript game engine for functional programmers
So I built a game engine in ClojureScript over the course of several years to scratch a personal itch. I wanted to express 2D web games using a functional and declarative style that supports my love for the fast feedback loop of REPL driven development. After lots of big life changes, development has stalled, but I keep coming back to it as a source of infinite curiosity and creative work. I want to share this here to gather feedback from the community and share some of the ideas that came from building this.

What do you think about the approach I took here [0]? Do the goals of the project (functional, declarative, repl-driven) resonate with you? As an example of what it looks like in real usage you can see the demo app in the repo. A more detailed discussion of the implementation can be seen in a talk I gave at Clojure West [1].

> Immigrants have lower IQs or more criminality.

Assuming a reasonable portion of these are refugees(or from third world countries), wouldn’t that be a fair link to make? Malnutrition has a clearly established link to lower IQs, hence migrants having a lowe IQ(iirc, Nordic countries have the Flynn effect strongest, so this link might hold true even for immigrants from developed nations).
Ultimately what makes for a successful cryptocurrency is security and network effects.

Now security not just includes the quality of the cryptography but the quality of the network, and the design of the currency to allow it to be used reliably.

This factor is all about engineering. And the thing about cryptocurrencies is that they are so novel and so new that there are a really small number of good cryptocurrency engineers. I've worked with a lot of second raters (I'm maybe a third rater myself) and talked to the first rate people. This is not a skill people will be getting with a class or two at a MOOC. (Or I wouldn't be a 3rd rater)

On both measures: Security and Network Effects bitcoin is the king.

The second most popular is Ethereum which is starting to get a lot of holders but seems to be constantly engineering its way out of disaster (the blockchain is already bigger than bitcoins and it's growing faster and new code is being thrown in all the time.)

Move fast and break things makes sense for facebook- they can fix any problems trivially. This is not the case for blockchain systems and thus the risk for ethereum is pretty high. To their credit they have been able to avoid catastrophe so far, but it's a lot less safe in this regard than bitcoin. (And theres some fundamental problems with Proof of Stake that may be exploited when Ethereum goes to that mechanism.)

Right now there's money to be made trading between these alternatives to bitcoin and bitcoin, but that's mostly trading on hype, not utility.

Bitcoin itself isn't even yet having its value follow utility, though it's adoption in situations like Venezuela is starting to prove some of that utility (and here again Ethereum has done good by being GPU mineable, something you can do in probably any country, unlike Bitcoin which requires expensive and mostly-single sourced ASICs)

I don't see where Crypto hedge funds have any advantage. They can't engage in the kind of market manipulation or derivatives trading that typical hedge funds seem to make their money with.

That's season 3 of Silicon Valley right there.
The only reason I look both ways on a one-way street in NYC is because I've almost been hit by cyclists going the wrong way on a few occasions (and then been yelled at by that cyclist for not looking).

As an everyday commuter in Boston, I'm definitely guilty of not stopping at stop signs that I bike through everyday and not stopping when there is a pedestrian in the crosswalk (usually trying to get as far away as possible from them), but whenever I have to go down the wrong way of a one way street (Charlestown has is a bit confusing and it happens whenever I'm there) I go slow and sometimes even dismount.
You're saying they didn't inhale?
Often, mentors prefer you come to them with specific problems. So, start with why you asked to meet with him. What problem do you need help solving?
Ah, yes, those really don't mix well with neither bike lanes nor cars.
I would encourage anybody who thinks cyclocommuters are particularly bad actors to stand on a busy urban street corner and count the percentage of drivers who are actively engaged with their mobile phone. You can identify them easily because they will be shiftily looking downward at sporadic intervals, rolling stop signs, and failing to notice traffic light changes.

In addition to the phone-related dangerous behavior, I would encourage people to count the number of unsignaled turns that happen at an urban intersection. As a pedestrian and a bicycle commuter in Chicago, I have to operate under the assumption that cars will jump in any direction at any moment (especially after having once been hit by a truck making an unsignaled right turn).

People who ride bikes in the city seem to attract extra scorn from the public for their supposedly higher rates of scofflawism. Cyclists do not have true impunity because they are in constant danger, whereas drivers have de jure and de facto impunity. A drunk driver in Chicago received no jailtime for actually killing a cyclist last year, for example. The rulebreaking of the cyclist is always taken as less acceptable. For motorists, there is no strong social expectation to follow the rules. I hope this will change as bicycle commuting gets more popular.
Yeah totally agree. The only plus I can get from it is that they're easy to identify as the higher risk riders. I've seen cities where you can just rent a regular bike [often old, beaten up a bit], and those people just blend right in.

Having said that, they don't seem to cause anywhere near as much of a problem when there are bike lines, but obviously that is not something available everywhere.

I'm pessimistic we'll see anything even close to Enron. When the big banks collapsed, none of the executives went to jail. I doubt we'll see that here, but it would send a powerful message if the inept VP of IT at Equifax was paraded in front of the cameras in handcuffs, and the CEO held personally responsible. There's a corporate shell enjoyed by major American companies. At this point I wonder: What would have to happen for the CEO of a major company to go to jail?
Public Prometheus Performance Metrics of Cloud Providers
I feel like I could replace "Excel" with "Jupyter" and not much changes there, honestly. Having a data ingest process in a notebook worries me because it seems to take a ton of the engineering practices we have managed to get in software, and completely ignore them.

And I get that I am being a little harsher than reality dictates. However, the testing and "build" process that surrounds most of "notebooks" is laughably like what we specifically avoided in software when we said your build should be standardized in an external file. And not scripting the main IDE that you happen to be using.

Indeed, I am perplexed by folks that don't know how to move between IDEs or who won't bother to understand how they are pulling dependencies into their system. Notebooks, though, seem to embrace that.

Which, as I've indicated elsewhere, is great for interactive use, but seems a major step backwards for serious solutions.
That's right. Grid frequency in the UK can be used as a signal indicating the real-time balance of supply and demand.

When the frequency drops below 50Hz, it suggests that demand is outpacing supply, and vice-versa when the frequency is above 50Hz.

Grid voltage can vary due to your location and all sorts of factors, but frequency is, of course, always synchronised wherever you are.

National Grid pays a lot of money for "frequency response" to ensure the grid remains balanced. Traditionally this was provided largely by coal spinning reserve. But as most coal-fired plants have now closed, it's now provided by diesel farms (yuck!) and increasingly, battery storage.

True, but I guarantee you there's something in that golden parachute that the company will cover all legal costs resulting from any non-illegal decisions made by the CEO.
Seeing the demo video on your website, I really have no idea what's going on. Your navigation doesn't have to be "revolutionary", it has to work. If no one has done it before, maybe there's a good reason for that.
