I have long thought Perl can do anything Python can, and then some. I still use Perl one-liners to find/change strings in code bases:

perl -pi -e 's/somestring/newstring/g' $(ag -l --python Foo)

Does Python have an equivalent?

I think the fabulous Python libraries for data science have really propelled the language to the top of the list, in terms of users.
I wonder who many CPU-seconds it would take to 'pay' the equivalent of one ad-view

The general criticism I've heard (not about China specifically) is that the US is at a significance disadvantage by virtue of mainstreaming our special education and ELL students (I.e. all students are tested in US). This is, apparently, less true in other countries so we're not making a true apples-to-apples comparison.
Respectfully, I feel this link is missing the broader picture - that the US has a health care system unlike any other OECD nation. Perhaps the crux is looking at models that have been successful in other countries and adapting them to the US?

>We could have just as easily chosen arguments to be a dance instead of a war.//

I don't see how that works - partners dancing together are cooperating to improve the outcome. Those competing in business are (unfortunately, in capitalist systems) almost always trying to profit and destroy their competitors. It's perhaps a bit like moshing?

War fits as a better metaphor for companies under capitalism.

If the companies were helping each other and targeting better products with less profit, that would be more like dance partners.
I've worked exactly one job that routinely took more than 40 hours/week and I make sure to not fall into that trap again. 50 hours a week standard is the same as a 20% per hour pay cut
A dozen years ago, I had a house built, and I bought all the appliances myself. I thought I would research the market, find the sweet spot, and get a good deal through a specialty appliance store because I was getting everything at once. Boy, was I wrong.

I subscribed to Consumer Reports online, and came up with what I thought was the right brand: GE "Gold". I bought everything in the line: stove, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, washer, and dryer. Within 5 years, the washer and dryer had both been replaced, almost all the plastic accessories on the fridge had broken, the stove's convection fan failed, and one of the rails on the storage pan fell off, several screws fell out of the dishwasher before I ever started noticing, and the silverware tray broke, and I couldn't keep microwave lights working.

What I finally figured out was that ALL of the stuff CR is reviewing is made by a few companies, and it's ALL crap. They make it seem like you can buy something "good" by paying twice as much, but even if CR is truly impartial, there's no material difference. I got more years of service out of the second-hand, refurbished, mismatched washer and dryer that I bought from the ratty converted house/shop on 3rd street than I got out of the "higher" end models, and paid 1/4 of the price.

And I'll tell you something else for free: it was damn refreshing to hear the guy who FIXES UP appliances for a living tell me he wouldn't even take my old units off my hands to refurbish -- for free -- because they really were total junk. Talk about salt on the wound! Find a local guy who does this and ask HIM what you should buy; not Consumer Frickin' Reports.

Before I was born, my parents went to Sears, and bought a "good" Kenmore washer and dryer. They lasted almost 30 years, till they couldn't get some replacement part for the dryer. I've concluded that the only way to get this level of quality is to buy "commercial" kit, and pay TEN times as much.
All the problems in every serious piece of software I've ever worked on stem from the customer (be it external or in-house) not knowing what they want, the person in charge of capturing that doing a pretty bad job of it anyway, and the chain from there to the person writing the software taking that failure and making it worse.

AI writing software will just get me another flavour of the wrong software. AI working out what people want the software to do would be useful.

Later they told me it was because of my elevated heart rate and blood pressure, and because I was sweating profusely. At that point I had already told them I got the injury playing soccer, it was summer and hot outside.

Not sure why your comment is getting downvoted so much. It's a perfectly reasonable question to ask. There may be a good answer for how we can know our fishing impact with so little data, but it's obviously not something you can easily intuit.

It could have been automated, but having the human make the call leads to a slightly decreased level of people madly trying to google up answers to 'what is the expected exit code for a program that had no errors?' so that the next phase of the process is not a complete waste of time for all parties involved. The recruiters are just trying to see if there is any chance that you might actually have the skill set claimed on your CV; if you can't answer their simple questions then your resume is complete BS and they will move on, but after asking the same questions over and over and over the recruiting team also knows the response of someone for whom the questions are insultingly easy and can move those candidates to the front of the queue for the next stage.
"Superfreezing is a relatively new technology that was developed in the 1990’s that drops the core temperature of a 500 pound tuna to minus 70 degrees below zero."

Found this part interesting. I worked for a short while in fisheries in the mid to late 90s, and graded fish for Sushi. There/then fish was iced, not frozen, as soon as captured to slow their metabolism, reduce any after-effects of stress, a cut is made so they also bleed, and die faster and as peacefully as possible. They are kept long enough to allow for rigor mortis (I guess what this article refers to aging), so when it ends it results in soft, melts-in-your-mouth meat. But no, not frozen, not for the "No. 1" destined for best clients. Lesser (cheaper) restaurants yes, frozen, older, lower quality fish.

This article refers to the US, and yes most of it is far, far away from the coast, and only way is to freeze it to distribute it such long distances. Unless flown in, obviously making the product much more expensive. So sure, as title says "Most sushi fish isn't fresh". In the same way, most sushi isn't the best sushi. And in many cases it doesn't really matter, if you want a quick and still yummy meal.

For tuna you can readily tell, even if you haven't trained your sense of smell, by the color. Most tuna here in the US you can see it a matte pink, instead of deep, alive, blood-like red, and you know right away it's been frozen.

Anyway, it seems to me the article gives the idea that freshness doesn't matter at all for sushi. I disagree.

And why wouldn't the stock market go up?

Companies are growing their revenues, and are making healthy profits.

A good chunk of those profits are paid out as dividends.
If dividend yield is much higher than those tiny interest rates, why wouldn't you borrow money, invest, and enjoy dividends?
It's the rational thing to do, and hence, demand for stock is up, stock price is up.
But as long as the corporations keep distributing, it makes sense.
Incredibly accurate.
Why I saw Etheroll and now ethino as a perfect investment
After investing in Etheroll at 0.005 ETH during the crowd sale in the beginning of this year I saw my DICE tokens go 6x at 0.03 ETH per DICE. I also collected a hefty dividend about a month ago and it’s then and there when I knew dividend tokens were for me. I have seen too many people get burned buying at coin tops out of pure fomo with nothing to look forward to but hopefully some sort of a return in a year or two. I waited for quite some time for another dividend casino token to be developed which followed a similar path such as Etheroll. I fully believe Ethino will be either a perfect token to flip or a great hold with its profit sharing dividend.(I’m holding) They created a Casino War game currently (full casino games later) which will allow for ERC20 tokens to be wagered or paid out. You would be able to gambled OMG, GNT, ZRX DICE or any token really. Pretty cool idea.
-Ethino has a working Alpha on the Rinkeby testnet. Pretty fun as well (A real alpha fully running on the blockchain) https://www.ethino.com/alpha/ * They also just implemented a TrollBox/ChatBox as well
-Communication has been on point with my many, many questions
-Great and thorough white paper check it out : http://www.ethino.com/files/ethino-whitepaper.pdf
-Super low market cap currently with a 50% token burn built into the contract
-Generous social media bounty too of up to $500k +: https://medium.com/@Ethino_Casino/ethino-bounty-launch-222837118f6
I feel that once people actually look at this project and realize it’s valued way too low currently for what they already have, the ICO will quickly start to fill up. Just checkout the other valuation of casino’s and you will see what I mean.
Disclaimer: Please do your own due diligence. Of course every ICO is a risk and everyone must outweigh the risk to reward for themselves.

That's exactly my evolution as an app dev as well. I understand some people write applications in which they have to wring every bit of inefficiency out of it, but the apps my employer wants don't require that kind of speed.
are there any services (mailwizz, mailtrain, sendy, email octopus, mailjet, mailgun, etc.) that supports the personalized newsletter use case (which is "one level deeper" than the personalized email use case)? it's not obvious from any of their sites, and i'm hoping someone here might know right off the bat. =)

meaning that each issue of the newsletter can include a set of like content items (e.g., articles) but the bundle of content is specific to each user (user 1 gets content items 1, 2, and 3, while user 2 gets content items 1, 3 and 5). this is one level deeper than just simple personalization like "Hi Joe, thanks for signing up with us on Saturday, Mar 4...".

i've yet to see a marketing email provider offer this functionality very well, if at all. for example, sendgrid (which i'm using now) supports it via a convoluted combination of section and substitution tags that is not very well documented. but most systems (including mailchimp, constant contact, etc.) don't even contemplate this use case.

> And if you look at rates of visits, while ignoring cost/content of the visits it seems like you're missing a big part of the analysis.

Not so much, because of the way emergency rooms work. What costs is the capacity, not what you use it for. You have to pay the going rate for a surgeon who can do open heart surgery, even if that doctor is only administering aspirin for a headache.

That's why a $.25 band-aid costs $100 at an ER.

> Sure, letting people suffer and die is cheaper on the medical systems books - but people dying earlier than they need to is a negative cost on our society and larger economys side ... let alone the ethical questions there.

But the original problem was that people can't afford healthcare, either individually out of pocket or collectively as insurance premiums or taxes. If covering more people under government insurance doesn't reduce costs then it doesn't solve the problem -- people still won't be able to afford healthcare.

It doesn't help anything to make it mandatory as taxes so that they end up not being able to afford rent or food instead of health insurance. We need to figure out how to actually reduce costs so that the amount of healthcare people need costs less than the amount of money they have, so that it's possible for people to get healthcare without going bankrupt.

That probably means people paying for more things out of pocket, because out of pocket payments shouldn't have triple the expense due to insurance paperwork, and people only compare prices when it's their own money.
For a few years I was the Silicon Valley Necromancer, attempting to reenergize failing businesses with new technology. I was on the Delicious team at AVOS (2012-2013), whom acquired Delicious from Yahoo!. I probably know very little of the whole story...but...I can at least share some of the technical challenges that we faced.

I lead the team on the re-write that brought Delicious into the single page app (SPA) world. Most people wondered why we built the app from scratch again. The python codebase that the Yahoo! team managed, I am not sure if they started their version of the app that way or if the inherited it, but we concluded that it would be quicker to re-write the app as opposed to dissecting the exiting application codebase. This is the primary reason why stacks were canned, regardless of what others might have said. Many times rewrites require reducing features in order to build a new foundation. This is sometimes a good thing, and sometimes not.

A rewrite also gave us the opportunity to build the app as an SPA. While we made an SPA, React, Redux, Webpack, Gulp, etc. did not exist, and we definitely ended up spending more time than expected creating inferior toolsets due to the lack of options at the time.

Another major challenge we faced was that the database was sharded in such a way that if your username was "zebra" the backend would hit MySQL server 1, then 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and finally 10 before returning results. If your username was "apple" you'd get a response quite quickly. I am not sure if we ever completed the migration into new shards/replicas.

There were also some random old API endpoints where we had to double encode periods in the url or the API would throw an exception. Obviously there was no documentation on for our treasure hunt to find which API endpoints had this major issue.

We didn't get any notice at AVOS before the team was moved off of Delicious to work on other projects. Perhaps we took too much time building the rewrite, or perhaps we realized there was no business model worth the time.

AVOS would later make a unilateral decision to move all projects to Angular, which was not a framework I believed would benefit my career development. I left AVOS when StubmleUpon called me and said, "hey if you can make Delicious a SPA, do you think you can make our app an SPA?"

Boy, I sure know how to pick 'em...

P.S. I will say that the Delicious team at AVOS was a very talented team and I am thankful for each day I got to work with them.

If it "didn't matter" then there wouldn't be such a massive difference in the opinions of Muslims and non-Muslims about secular topics. Islam in particular is also more like religious and political ideology intertwined, and the political aspect of it does not mix well with Western culture or values. I'm not just making this up either, there are a variety of polls from allegedly "moderate" Muslim countries as well as within European countries that show disturbingly high levels of support for terrorism, honor killings, oppression of women, killing of apostates, etc.
