>>the second dose could still grant immunity for life even if it is taken 5 years after the first dose. It is a super effective vaccine!

Why shouldn't USA--as in the FedGov--make such vaccines 100% free for everyone, a child or a 55 year old? An ounce of prevention and all....maybe subsidize them, pay cost only.

Personally I went to a private clinic and paid for them, but it was hundreds and hundreds. Not everyone can afford them and when you 80 million (or whatever) vaccines, the price can come down.
But that isn't saying that they were clear. It was because they were skewed in a way that would show ONE place that was also unique to older audio technology. That is not the issue with 20 year old speakers or the way people listen to music.

What it is saying is that the NS10 = What people were listening to. That is no longer the case.
This has been around for a while, I wanted to show HN because:

- It's basically mandatory if you've got Unix skills and want to apply them to Windows. Ctrl R, less, and a bunch of other mandatory bits and pieces.

- The README was just updated with a full list of commands so you can see everything it has to offer before you install it.
Any company worth working for isn't going to take it personally that you've declined their offer, especially if its for reasons mostly unrelated to the company themselves. I've even resigned from jobs with a company and then gone back to work for them later when circumstances changed with no hard feelings.

The biggest downside (other than cost) I've found is that each vCPU core is quite a bit slower that what you'll get on equivalent real hardware. So any code that doesn't scale more or less linearly across an arbitrary number of cores will suffer.

I've spent a lot of time watching Jon on twitch, and have only read his twitter to keep up on stream announcements, but I find it difficult to believe that. Jon is opinionated, and doesn't sugar coat those opinions often, but I've never seen him harass anyone. Even if he has, that doesn't invalidate anything he's saying. Nobody is perfect.

> How?
By simply eliminating intermediaries. A middle man always takes a cut somehow. If you can eliminate him, both parties can enjoy better rates. Here are some non vague ways blockchains can help real problems:

- What if a kind of youtube existed where advertisers paid content creators directly instead of youtube taking a large percentage? And it was censorship resistant.
- What if we could build app stores that don't take a 30-50% cut.
- How about an entire p2p marketplace without fees like ebay? openbazaar.org
- What about getting paid for things that are impossible right now because of CC tx fees? This unlocks microtransactions & an entire attention economy (see yours.org, steemit.com, more incoming)
- How about p2p digital rights management to allow artists to keep more of their income? Several in the works.
- How about any service that exists to keep records? I would love to see the day Pacer was replaced by a blockchain.
- What if a kind of reddit could exist without centrally moderated channels and armies of fake users?
- What if p2p rented data storage could be a fraction of the price of dropbox without selling your data?
- What if you could rent computing power in a p2p fashion?
- What if network/VPN rules could be tokenized in the hardware and network access could be metered and charged per minute in crypto?
- What if you could receive payroll as a minute by minute stream?
- What if the lottery was provably fair and 1000 times less of a ripoff?
- What if we could replace obviously flawed political polling with prediction markets?

I could write this list all day. Not vague handwaving, all of these things are being worked on or already exist.

Here is the post this post is in response to:

http://blog.cleancoder.com/uncle-bob/2017/10/04/CodeIsNotThe...

I don’t interpret the original piece as saying any of these tools and techniques are not useful.

I interpret it as saying average developer mindset needs to shape up.

I tend to agree. I work with guys who believe in formal reasoning tools (we collaborated with Amazon’s ARG for example[1]), and use all these tools. These guys are almost compelled to write these tools and evangelize using the tools in an effort to help, because the developers around them don’t carefully reason about their code and it makes the guys who care crazy.

So you have two camps. People who believe correctness is important, and people who think continuous deployment is an answer to bugs. The first group is trying to help the second group through tools that can become part of the SDLC.

I read “Uncle Bob” as suggesting that’s not enough, it’s not the root cause — the second group needs to care.

I see nothing in his post that suggests the tools shouldn’t be used. (“I think that good software tools make it easier to write good software.“) But if the crowds in his talks aren’t using unit tests, are they really going to be using TLA+?

First, do no harm, then use like Light Table, Model Driven Engineering, and TLA+.

I take that as his point, and it seems painfully valid.

But I am talking about people in small studios. Since around 1998 or so the recording studio was revolutionized and 90% of studios are very small one bedroom or basement size spaces.

My "all the time" is going from the late 1980s to 2007. Though I still see people with only NS10. There was a studio in my city 2 blocks away. NS10 were on the wall and was the primary ears for the mixing.

That's less streamlined than having the editor directly cater to different needs. The "separate git terminal window" for example doesn't know anything about your open files and vice versa.

I don't think it's a good idea, "well used" (and setting what is or what is not a good use on the application of this might be kind of hard) can be an incentive for the childs, but, an overuse of this/using it as an obligation might cause the counter effect of associating learning with obligation and with that, the contempt towards learning, or having it as something negative that hinders what child want to get.

Cruel and unusual, not cruel or unusual.

SCOTUS has said about the death penalty specifically that it is without a doubt cruel; however, it is pervasive, and therefore not an unusual punishment. Therefore there is no Constitutional violation. I suspect a similar argument in the inverse rules out corporal punishment. Fifty lashes, even if less cruel than decades in prison, is certainly a cruel punishment. It's also very unusual for 2017 America.

It's a bit more subtle than that, in the same way that the cost of an ad is larger than the cost to place that ad somewhere. But on steroids.

If you just show up and dump $300k on some politicians laps, the effect isn't likely to be particularly overwhelming. You need to cultivate relationships, wait for a good moment (when the money is disproportionately valuable to said politician), at least sell the perception that you're able and willing to dish up more in the future, etc.

So the actual cost is a lot higher than the amount the politician actually receives.

The higher that tower of turtles, the stronger the confidence.

The proof checker can be ran several times to account for faults. Then you don't need to run it at all (it's proven). And you can use another proof checker (or that proof checker itself) to prove that the proof checker works. Etc.

Now there's the problem of the compiler, which gives a upper bound on the confidence you can have: if there's a bug in it, you're screwed even with a correct algorithm.

Come to think of it, that may not be possible for lots and lots of algorithms —whose mathematical security is only conjectured to begin with. Thanks for pointing that out.

Doesn't that assume that profit maximization is the ultimate and only goal of every restaurant owner?

Perhaps it is, I'm not familiar with San Francisco restaurants. But some might simply enjoy being able to offer excellent food at a comparatively low price simply because all their business, personal, and employee needs are met and rising prices could be detrimental to that balance. For example, if you enjoy seeing low-income families from your local neighbourhood eat at your place because you are affordable (not to mention healthy and delicious), then raising prices would drive them out, and you might be sad and disappointed, for whatever personal reason (i.e., your personal needs are no longer being met as neatly as before).
An alternative way to create small container images is to not base them off a distro at all: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15415992
In principle things can come for free. Sometimes something new is strictly better. I am fairly confident that GCC outperforms early C compilers in every relevant metric (in theory GCC is ofc vastly more expensive because of decades of labor invested in it, but I don't pay that investment).

Right now Rust is slower than C (though not always slower than C++), produces bigger binaries, and compiles slower. But more safety required a more expressive language, and a more expressive language contains more information for code generation and optimizer. It's certainly conceivable that in a few years the Rust compiler might generate faster code than C compilers.

I have read 'The Death of Ivan Illyich', from what I remember the focus there is ignoring of his family for work. Which in his terminal days, he regrets a lot. This one, seems (based on Amazon reviews) to be regretting, spending life for a wrong cause/person. So kind of similar, but also subtle difference.
Just switched to Vim after a decade of using Emacs. The switch was one part of a larger life goal to simplify and embrace minimalism.

I think this shift in mindset was an essential part of being able to learn Vim.

In Emacs, I had dozens of plugins, and I could do everything so fast that I almost went on autopilot. This was great for boilerplate code that's 90% typing and 10% thinking, but not great for complicated code (Haskell, low level machine learning stuff) that is 10% typing and 90% thinking.

There are way too many things that changed recently to have conclusions on diets. Environment and chemical residues, sedentary lifestyles, lack of exercise, use of drugs (antibiotics and guts flora are now suspected to have interactions) and even more insidious stuff like our social structure changes.

And yet many people still manage to live a pretty long and healthy life nowadays with "regular" diets (ie with cereal, yet home prepared and with the right quantity), but not so much while being morbidly obese, drinking water full of lead or smoking...

I mean I'm not all against special diets, and to each his own, but this focus on diet as some kind of miracle remedy that let us live better without having to put other efforts into it makes no sense to me.

While the drones won't mind working at night or on weekends, I would certainly mind the relentless, high-pitched noise of drones delivering groceries and the latest new tech gadgets to my neighbours when I try to sleep or relax.

I never understand why Martin gets the kind of attention he does. As far as I can tell, the only significant achievement he's done for the technical community is the Agile manifesto. Outside of that, he's a typical consultant in that he's got books, training courses, etc. However, I have yet to find a significant publicly known project he's been involved in where he's had to put his principle into practice.
If the girl is gonna leave you for that reason or is this simple things gonna hurt your relationship, I'm sorry to say you this, but perhaps it's not the right kind of girl for you.

From what I see, it's something that you want, and in the end, it's a job, something which enables you to pay your bills and be an adult, something you depend on.

So, I would just do it. When I've got an offer to move to Germany and wanted to go there, my partner just did with me, even though she had to struggle a bit with the language to then find a job, she did it, now she's happy about it, just as she was we came here. And in the end, this can also go away, and you'll be stuck with your old town, no girlfriend and your poor choice.

If you don't do it and stay with her there and do what was your plans before, it's very likely that this will become a subject when you fight and this could be even worse, you would feel that this specific decision as dragged you down future-wise in life, getting you to blame her perhaps forever.

I know this can look individualistic. But seriously, there's special people everywhere, you could move in and find a new love, I don't know. I feel that if you are made for each other, you would like to be part of the plan of one another, or to respect and do the best to support the interest of your partner, as for instance, when you are married, you indeed got a contract which in case you get divorced, you get 50%, so even in economical terms it would be great to take decision to go wherever pays best for the couple. If my wife would get a good job and I could just stay at home and keep things tidy until I would also find one, I would definitely do it, why not? :-)

On a tangential note: I am still waiting for a philanthropic billionaire to create (sponsor) the ultimate learning digital world for kids of all ages (in 200+ languages please) aka Ready Player One.

There are already some high-quality learning apps (reading and counting) for kids but the best ones are paid and they usually cover only a narrow segment in a narrow subject.

I wonder if the "authorities of Effective Altruism" would agree with me that this is a good way to spend charity money.

I've seen Jon espouse opinions about technology that cut against the popular grain, but I've never seen him pull a full-Torvalds and try to belittle the people who argue against him. Jonathan Blow sticks to the tech and rational conversation about it.

He has a lot of terrible things to say about JavaScript and Electron in particular. And I agree with every point he makes. It's also not going to stop me from using them, because I have other reasons, other goals. If you can pay attention and avoid blindly interpreting criticism of the tech as a personal attack, it will make you a better developer.

I had the same question when I was first choosing libraries for my current project!

So I put together this comparison of PyMC3, Edward, and Stan. It's jut doing bayesian inference on the location and scale of data sampled from a normal distribution. Super simple, but highlights the differences between the libraries.

https://github.com/cshenton/normal-comparison

Having worked with Edward, the LOC difference is deceptive. Edward has really solid abstract base classes, so developing on it is much more expressive for larger projects. I unequivocally recommend using Edward.
