And rewatching the video, I wonder... currently a subway / metro car holds 50-100 people (and there are about 5-7 carriages linked), but subways follow each other at best 3-5 minutes. (Or ~1-2 in Japan in rush hour.)

So about 250 - 700 people are moved in 3 minutes, that's 80-230 per minute. If sleds follow each other by let's say 2-3 seconds, and each car holds 1-8 people, then that's 20-240 people per minute. With the added benefit better granularity, and you don't have to switch lines, metros, you don't even have to leave your seat.

Any symbol or word in Clojure (or another Lisp) following an open parens is a function call. You literally learn this in the first 2 minutes during the explanation of prefix notation, e.g. (+ 1 2 3) equals 6 or (- 10 1) equals 9. The great thing about Clojure is that > is just a function, not some special notation, so if you are in doubt you can use your editor to click through to the get the function definition (and the actual code). It isn't very hard to train your mind to treat any sequence of (foo x y z) as a function call.

The yale article doesn't mention the exact doses for which it has been tested, only once it says "high", but in the other experiments just says "supplements" - so it's unclear what exactly has been found out about exactly the doses I wrote about.

The other talks about 1g daily as prevention. I talk about 3x1g as treatment when symptoms start to appear until they are gone.

Different things.

And again, I don't say my own experience is a scientificly proven thing working generally, just a personal report and maybe a thing worth trying for the curious instead of throwing a lot of bucks in other treatments.

I think theres a lot of (financial) interest in suppressing that the thing I wrote about works for more than just me - and there's not much to be gained for me personally if writing about this will help others too... so, what's your motivation trying to supress me in reporting my experience?
I suspect there are a couple of reasons - especially in the newer/startup space:

* Salary. Older employees are more experienced, but, just as importantly, they've already job-hopped a bit, so their base is a lot higher. And they've probably a lot more personal financial responsibilities. All told, they're unlikely to go for the same salary as a new grad.

* Interview process. Anecdotal experience, but, the interview process is structured towards new grads. They've studied algorithms recently, so it's at their fingertips. Unless you've brushed up before interviewing you can look sloppy and unsure in comparison. This can be harder if you've an existing job and family commitments. (Note: I'm not saying you shouldn't study; just pointing out that this can happen.)

* It's hard to gauge experience. Simply because a person has been in the industry for 10 years doesn't mean that they're "more experienced". It's very tricky to gauge: it's easy to tell when someone is less experienced than you, but much harder if they're more experienced. Plus, how do we evaluate experience? Design questions? Software architecture? Looking at code they've written? It's very fuzzy, and a lot depends on the skill of the interviewer and their own experience.

* Finally, we devalue experience. A personal bugbear is hearing hiring managers say that they can train up a new grad to be a tech lead in about a year. Unless you've worked on a couple of largish projects - and seen your own designs evolve in response to requirements, I question that strategy. But, who knows - maybe I'm completely off-base there.

EDIT: I'd like to raise a final point: sometimes the impact of experience is only apparent when you've to scale your product architecture or your team. Assuming that most startups fail (i.e. never make it that far), this means most very early stage teams can get by with an ad-hoc process and/or system until they pass that hump.
Firefox displays similar warnings if a site requests login and it isn’t secure. There is no conspiracy here.
I generally agree with you, but Clojure is not at all like other dynamic languages (like, say, JS). For one, Clojure's dynamic dispatch is more like C++/Java's -- i.e., when you call a function, you can statically know either the precise target or an explicitly designated set of possible targets. Second, Clojure allows you to specify the types of arguments (and much more, in fact), not with a type system, but with a specification system. It's not exactly the same, but it can be more/less powerful than types, depending on usage.

I know Clojure and have used it for some projects, and I don't do that. If I need to sketch an algorithm, I'll do it in pseudocode, and if I need to test the design I do it in a verifiable pseudocode, like PlusCal. For sketching/testing numerical algorithms, I use Matlab/Julia.
> In German, you can read a word and know how it is pronounced, and hear a word and know how it's written.

So there are no dialects in Germany, do they really pronounce all words the same in the dockyards of Hamburg as they do in the university at Heidelberg? What about Austrian German, Swiss German, and the German speakers in Argentina and Brazil.

And you never 'steal' words? What about spaghetti (or is it spagetti now?). If German had been the most used auxiliary language for the last two hundred years I think it too would have borrowed a few more words.
You'll have to forgive a more mature person for not wanting to give advice on how do you deal with "what do your boyfriend's friends think about your poetry about your boyfriend". As en example, my wife is fully excused for not being excited about a discussion between two kid girls discussing what outfit should their Barbie wear today.

The "job" of the more mature person is to tell you that you're focusing on insignificant shit right now and that this is a problem. And to also tell you what are more significant issues you should be focusing on. How do you solve your problem however is entirely up to you.

They're not there to hand-hold you, they are there to give you perspective.

Still, if you wish to elaborate, I'll gladly give you my opinion about your current problem -- if your comment included yourself, I mean.

I agree, I'm only arguing the hypothetical.

I would highly doubt that $250mil went into slower progress for the sake of safety. Definitely, there were other costs.

You're supposed to only consider the abstract idea I presented. That's why I changed from $250mil numbers to $100mil halfway through, although I didn't make it fully clear to divorce the concrete numbers from the abstract cultural ideas.

SPF / DKIM let you know that who you think you're receiving mail from and who you're actually receiving mail from are the same person. How that that come into this at all? Spammers can say they're from onlinechemist@spam.com via SPF / DKIM and it's still going to come through.

I don't know who you're even trying to convince. You're talking in hypotheticals and being extremely idealistic. How the email ecosystem works and how it actually works are two very different things. You cannot say "the reason must be something else!" as if - just because you can't make sense of the situation - it is not so.
I'm curious which one will launch first, BFR or New Glenn. My money is on the BFR, so far with 1200 s Raptor engine fire and full size cryo tank they seem to be making progress.

I recently signed up for ProtonMail.

https://protonmail.com/

I wanted a reasonably cheap and secure email service that allowed me to use custom domains. Proton Mail seemed like a good fit. No complaints so far.

One other option that I almost went with was Rackspace Webmail:

https://www.rackspace.com/en-gb/email-hosting/webmail

However, that $2 per user per month only applies if you buy a minimum of 5 user licences, so it worked out more expensive for me than the 5 Euros a month for ProtonMail Plus:

The most interesting thing was left out: how did they find this data? Both historical and realtime is pretty hard to find. Ten years of odds from a dozen bookies looks like a massive task.

Next: how do you mask this behavior to not be obvious. Once you have a betting stratetgy the real difficulty is turning it into one that isn't obvious.
Great - just used one of my limited "free passes" which I didn't even know that I had. Nice one Medium...
Some of those points are actually age discriminatory.

For example, why assume that an older person should earn more than a younger person? Instead, it's better to think about paying people in proportion to the value that they provide to the company.

I understand that many startups simply do not have the cash required to pay a high base salary. But, that's what equity compensation is for.
By specializing in a domain, you live and die by it. It usually happens anyways, but it isn't all upside.

It's like what the XP guys called spike solutions. Make sure that you can plausibly get from A to B without caring at first about performance and elegance. This gives you information and confidence.

True, and there was a question on this topic during the Frama-C and Spark day this year in may in Paris, about similar tools and environments in java. People in the room cited JML and it being the inspiration for ACSL but the conclusion seemed to be that the proof technology wasn't so advanced and supported ? I'm very interested if you have more info on this, I'd be happy to be mistaken.

If you look around there's also EVE (for Eiffel) that B. Meyer mentionned some time ago on his blog. They didn't have to add a specification language or to supplement their original language, it was built in Eiffel from the start :-D.

One funny thing about specification languages is that they 'need' to be expressive to be useful. The Ada 2012 specs added lots of sugar to help writing contracts : quantifiers on collections/arrays (for some, for one), if- and case- expressions (pattern matching isn't far) and expression functions... and in Spark 2014 contract-cases. I expect some more in Ada2020. Since contracts must be executable you get all the sugar for your regular Ada too.
I've been self-hosting for the past 4 years and this hasn't been my experience. Things like fixing DKIM/SPF eat an hour or two occasionally, but I've never encountered an issue where the time investment overtook the learning + other benefits - it's been hands-off 364 days of the year.

I've only seen one blocked send happen -- blocked by my grandma's @att.net account. Since it happens so infrequently and nobody uses @att.net, I just re-sent from a Hotmail account instead. No issues with the other major players. But for my use-case it's easy to mitigate and if the problem persists I can invest more time in it, but one recipient blocking me in 4 years isn't bad.

It's the only way to have ownership, which is is one of the benefits I really like - Google, Yahoo, etc. still get pieces of my personal email history because nobody else self-hosts or uses PGP, which is disappointing, but I prefer it over handing one player ownership the full history.

BTW, I'm running it on the same 512MB DigitalOcean droplet that I use to host my static sites (personal website, small product sites, etc), so it's basically free since I'd need to host those things anyway, which is nice. Needs some swap though.

Edit: Not saying these points are invalid. They're certainly valid, a service like Gmail _will_ be more reliable and easier. If you're blocked for some reason or have any other email probs, there's nobody else to fix it besides you.
Good points. One comment: I use GANs at work. While useful they can be difficult to train. Sometimes the loss function for the combined discriminator and generator does not decrease with training as much as you would like, but the generator used on its own is still useful. Goodfellow, inventor of GAN, only spends about one page in his long deep learning book on GANs. RNNs also make good generators and are easier to train. Anyway, GANs may not be good for practical how-to tutorials.

Edit: good advice on using Keras. Keras is ‘understandable’ in the sense that reading the code for Keras itself is useful and Francois Chollet, creater of Keras, has a fantastic new book out - which I strongly recommend.
Might be better to talk about concrete numbers instead of "low/high/very large" doses :)

I would not take zinc in the same numbers as Vitamin C - but exactly therefor eI said I would take them apart, because, at least in the German and Spanish Market, you have combination preparates with 80mg Vitramin C and 5mg of Zinc - to achieve the effects I observed in myself you'd need 3x10 of these for the Vitamin C amount, whioch would be a lot of zinc which I would not recommend and have no experience with and no knowledge about the risks.

The articles seem to not agree in doses and helpfulness - one says it must be >= 75mg to actually do something, another that even 90+ mg doesn't do anything. And I believe to remember that already from 25mg/day you can get strange effects in the belly as side effects...

How does that work? Surely the marginal cost of an extra passenger is less than the total cost divided by the number of passengers? Not only that but if the bus is not already full one more passenger is very nearly pure profit.

I'm genuinely curious.

I'm sorry, but did you just make a generalizing statement linking a difference in behavior to sex? Logically, you can invert your comment to say that females use sex to get power. Neither of these things can be said. Ever. Isn't this sort of thing precisely what got James Damore run out of town on a rail for, just a few months ago?
Yes. Phones that are switched off are easily reachable almost anywhere.

They also happen to have no active UI elements on the screen. Or visual feedback.If you'd switch it on, on that photo you you'd be long-pressing the (bottom-right) "back" key, and possibly generating word salad in any focused text input field.

Almost nobody has issues holding a phone with the active display switched off.
Buses require a circuit to operate, unlike cars which can operate in single-vector mode. Thus, they can be impacted by seemly-non-systematic events such as distant traffic in the other direction.
Interesting - I didn't know that. But the parent was pretty obviously making the association between forms of damage which definitely increase cancer risk (sunburn) and non-ionizing radiation - which does not. The type of burn he observed is thermal.

So even if thermal damage (or just damage in general) can increase cancer risk a little...it's not remotely the same thing as sunburn or gamma radiation, and as it pertains to cellphones completely irrelevant (because a cellphone is not a 40W antenna emitter).
I've been trying my luck at tennis betting ( https://matchstat.com/profile/soniman ) and the only strategy that seems to work consistently is finding injured players and betting against them. Good example of an injured player is a player that limps (Andy Murray at Wimbledon this year). The computers don't watch matches so injured players can be overvalued by the models. Also, any British tennis player tends to be overvalued because the books are based in the UK. For instance there is an overweight British player named Marcus Willis that last week was a 1.01 favorite to win at a tournament in Las Vegas; he lost, apparently due to dizziness aka being fat. There are some other patterns that can be exploited but the highest return strategy has to be betting against injured favorites. However, I think that would probably require more tennis watching than I want to do. Maybe I could hire somebody on Mechanical Turk to watch tennis for me and report on players who appear to be injured or take medical time outs.

> If you feel threatened by the idea of a China that economically dominates, I would honestly like to hear your explanation.

I think what's actually more worrisome is what happens when China stops growing. The CCP is extremely authoritarian, China's residents are nationalistic and already consider a whole foreign country "actually theirs", it seems like the perfect setup for maybe-accidentally sliding into war when things go sour back at home. As a German, I am not scared of China because they're an exotic "other" culture with 5000 years of history etc., but because they look like fellow Germans at their absolutely worst. Having met Chinese who revere Hitler hasn't really helped.

Paranoid? Maybe. We Germans are schooled to be extremely wary of aggressive nationalism :)
Perhaps I didn't make myself clear: I'm not asking companies to pay older employees more. I'm simply pointing out that job-hopping and personal commitments make it likely that older employees will demand a higher salary, which smaller companies may be loath to give.
Literally nothing I said stated about society and risk stated that dangerous jobs are only for low level construction workers. You're just using silly ad hominem ("desk jockey") and emotional appeals (poor vs rich!) without considering the point.

In fact, one of my examples of risk was the Apollo project, where the most notable 3 casualties (Apollo 1's Virgil Grissom, Edward White II, and Roger Chaffee) were highly paid astronauts with engineering backgrounds. I'm not discriminating against construction workers, I'm making a statement on acceptable risk in society in general.

Finding a balance on putting price on human life is simply a necessity. I have a friend who's a petrol engineer working dangerous jobs at a high salary, and it's a risk he's willing to take. However, the modern general public is culturally shifting to people like you who literally hear the words "possible risk" and the frontal cortex of the brain shuts down and start ignoring the costs.
Agreed with your whole comment except this:

> try to be likable

You can't do that. But showing genuine interest in what people think and do, being a listener and not only a talker, is what gets many people to like you. And that's not something that's easy to fake. You have to be genuinely curious about other people's perspective and context.
