Not particularly. Like any sane programming language, Python has an AST. That's code as data. For porting, it doesn't particularly matter to be able to treat code as data while running that code.

There are tools that use the AST to translate Python 2 to Python 3, such as python-future. (Unfortunately, one of the things the core Python devs botched about the transition is that they put an awful, incomplete, broken one of these named 2to3 in the standard Python distribution.)

Racket's approach is rather different; they just support all the different Scheme/Racket syntaxes and standard libraries PLT has ever supported, with the same runtime. This doesn't include MIT Scheme but there is a syntax for the subset of it used in SICP. I don't think they have anything that converts code between the syntaxes.

I wouldn't mind seeing Python also use that approach -- a Python 3 runtime that runs Python 2 code (and maybe borks your Unicode, which is fine because people who stay on Python 2 clearly don't care that much about Unicode, and that's their prerogative). I'm convinced the only reason no such thing exists is that the first person who makes it would become responsible for everybody's awful old Python 2 code. Maybe in 2020 someone will make it and charge money for it.
Well behaved women rarely make history. This could be precisely the reason why women do so poorly socioeconomically, because they are taught to be endlessly obedient and subservient without question.

It may make them well behaved, but it makes for terrible leaders who need to defy societal norms to perpetuate or see through a novel idea or business model, terrible self esteem for STEM fields when women need to feel confident in their own understanding of how things work and be willing to dig into the why's instead of mentally reoienting to the politically correct or expected answer.

It's bad for basically every level of Independence that women need to excercise to be socioeconomic equals.

Bringing up well behaved women with excessive boundaries in correlation to children is precisely the issue with society.

I think I'm going to go ahead and buy that t-shirt that says "raise boys and girls the same way"

If boys get to play in the woods and turn their sisters curling irons into backyard bombs, go out late at night then girls should have the same freedom to comfortably practice exploration, tinkering with stuff and breaking stuff and building stuff and roaming about without their mothers worried about where they are going and loading them down with more domestic chores than their male siblings.

Intel also used (b), in "Copy Exactly!", including seemingly irrelevant details. They also tried to work out why it worked... but didn't let not knowing stop them from using it. In science, experimental results often precede theory anyway (and indeed incite it).

Reading the article, it struck me that simple geographical factors might also influence success rates: e.g. weather (humidity being a CF treatment), genetic factors in that population, socio-economic factors (esp. time and effort available for the intensive care required).

BTW I like to think that's not a typo for Noone, but a US colloquialism paralleling "God knows why" but instead referencing Daniel Boone.

Your work with ML and images sounds incredible!

Do you have a link (e.g. on arxiv or elsewhere) that describes your approach using ML for image reconstruction in greater detail?
How would you recommend building up one's combined intuition in optical theory, the relevant ML techniques, and the biological substances themselves, to the level where you can innovate in this task as you have done?

Also, for those interested in the concept of building better images using higher fidelity simulations of the microscope itself, presumably Andrew meant studies along these lines: https://arxiv.org/abs/1702.07336

It’s kind of amazing... at 150 hours, even after 900 people have watched your video, you’ve still invested more time than all of your viewers combined.

At 9,000 views society is leveraging 10 units of consumption for every 1 unit of work.

So big YouTubers who get on the order of a million views per video and spend an order of magnitude less time on the content are producing entertainment at an approximately 10,000:1 ratio. Ten thousand hours of mindless consumption for each hour of work they put in.

Well, since TempleOS doesn't support network interface cards, and because of there is no known TempleOS malware, I think TempleOS users are safe for the time being. The most likely way they can get harmed is by misusing the OS or through a killer poke (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killer_poke).

The objective of TempleOS is not to become a mainstream operating system. The objective of TempleOS, in Terry Davis' words is to create a temple for god. Not any temple, but the "third temple" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Temple).

As a physician, I often think about how we lack truely objective assessment of patient outcomes (either in the context of evaluating physician competence or, probably more importantly, assessing and improving upon clinical practises).

I would really appreciate insight on how this could be achieved.

There are several issues which are particularly vexing:

- The distinct lack of verifiable, objective markers of physician competence.

- Each patient's case is unique and cases with the highest levels of difficulty are often treated by the most experienced people. These cases, of course, are likely to have worse outcomes than simple cases which may be treated by less experienced (worse?) physicians.

- Clinical outcomes are largely recorded by the same people treating the patient so reported outcomes are often erroneous or frankly fraudulent.

- This is made worse by the hierarchical nature of clinical medicine and deference to seniority and title.

- Medicine is parochial so clinical practises for the same disorder vary tremendously. You might be treated a dozen different ways for the same disorder and presentation depending on the facility and especially on the specialty that ends up treating you.

- Outcomes are not necessarily determined by clinician ability. There are several other factors at play: the pre- and post-care (such as work-up by ancillary staff or ICU care after a surgery), the cohesiveness of the facility and its efficiencies (or lack thereof), availability and preferences for resources such as medical devices, drugs and hospital equipment which may be largely out of the hands of the physician.
This thread helps confirm my long term desire to self terminate. I didn’t have much insight into how a bpd looks from both sides but it’s clear to me that having a psychiatric disorder can put someone in a whole different universe from others despite appearances.

If someone believes others are out to get them, if they’re sensitive, or whatever behaviors they manifest, who is anyone to say what they feel is right or wrong? Their behaviors may not fit in with society at large, but nobody can speak to their perceptions.

The world is complicated now and people on average have a more intricate social universe than ever before. I’m sad to say that I couldn’t find my place in human society. Seeing where I am at personally relative to what I’ve learned from this thread is very painful.

Wishing for the best for everyone here. Nobody should have to suffer and it’s commendable that so many fight the good fight. Be well.
RB steered people into renting dvds for $1.50 or purchasing download codes for $7.99 instead of purchasing the movie for $19.99.

Instead of $199.90 for ten sales, the studio got $19.99 and RB got from $15.00 to $79.90. That's definitely undercutting. Whether it is illegal or not is tbd in court.

It's definitely got more of a Star Trek feel now but early on it was pretty bad. "About a Girl" just about made me drop it.

Without spoiling it too much, a crew member on the Orville had a family dispute that boiled down to alien ethics/culture vs. human ethics/culture. While I feel crews of the earlier actual Star Trek series would have approached the problem with more empathy, understanding and logic, the (mostly human) crew of the Orville were purely driven by emotion and tried to argue their position in ways that made zero logical sense.

It's been much better since then though. These days it feels like Star Trek with a little less philosophy and some poor jokes thrown in to appease the network.

You already know exactly what their conception of the world is like. When you look at the world you don’t see two images, you just perceive the presence of things.

The thing that would make scallop reality different than yours is not the many eyes, it’s the different body. Because you have fingers and lips you will perceive a fish differently than a creature with tentacles and gills would perceive it. We can only perceive that which we can relate to our own bodily experience.

(Although as humans our layering of cultural references on those bodily sensations can sometimes lead to the illusion that our perceptions are abstract.)
Google's Flutter could be Xamarin’s next big competitor
I the interesting thing to consider is what happens to the hospitals that do terribly, but not so poorly that they should be shut down. The publication of their rating will start causing doctors and patients to avoid them. In our fee-for-service model, this causes the hospital to starve and enter a vicious feedback loop.

Perhaps we should have an independent commission that has the ability to perform an outside investigation into these cases and attempt to understand what's going wrong. For hospitals that are under-resourced, they would have to power to increase allocations. On the flip side, it could shut down the ones that are irreparably broken that can safely be removed from a region.

Also, we should do away with fee-for-service for good. It is the worst bag of incentives this side of the line between healing and hurting.
Speaking from the US, it's too bad that pharmacists are so disempowered here. I was just in France, and my friend came down with an eye infection. He went to a pharmacist, who just gave him antibiotics and told him to come back in three days if it didn't go away.

We both agreed it would never have been so easy in the states.
It isn't true that the FDA recognizes that some drugs are so beneficial it is unethical to check for side effects

The FDA approval process is slow partly because it is bureaucratic, but largely for two very important reasons: 1) because it is easier to prove effectiveness than safety (i.e. Easier to prove a positive than a negative), FDA requires rigorous standards to ensure drugs are safe (many FDA rules came into existence because people died from taking approved drugs) and 2) to prevent snake oil sales

It is difficult to imagine how pervasive and socially detrimental "snake oil salesmen" are (i.e. People who sell useless products to vulnerable sick people by taking advantage of their need for care), but without regulations this would be a huge problem

Odd, that was the episode that just about made me drop the series.

The crew of the Orville was driven by emotion, barely took any time to consider the aliens' point of view, didn't seek any evidence for either side's position and argued their point primarily with logical fallacies ("look, these problems don't exist in other species, so clearly they can't exist in yours").

I don't think this episode could have worked in TNG because the episode would boil down to:

"Picard: What evidence do you have to support your beliefs?"

"Aliens: Uhh, why do we need evidence, clearly it is this way?"

"Picard: Let's find some evidence"

It had its upsides for sure but it's definitely not comparable to TNG.
It's not trying to glue the legacy to Corbyn. It's noting that Corbyn refuses to unequivocally condemn Venezuela and clearly has sympathy even now.

All Corbyn has to do is make a statement like "Yes, I supported Chavez but unfortunately his regime wrecked the Venezuelan Economy and his successor has become a dictator".

End of story. He doesn't and he won't. It is apologising for them when you say 'there is blame on both sides'.

The original poster said that people on left having a lot of sympathy for Venezuela and continuing to support the current regime was rare and not seeing it as a cautionary tale. It's not. A few minutes of searching find various examples around the world. There are considerably more.

Here is another bit of support for them getting upset with Corbyn for not providing more support for Maduro.

No, I don't. They are no longer the consistently lowest price for many items where they used to be. They rely on Prime subscribers valuing the convenience of Prime over slight pricing differences elsewhere.

However I absolutely believe they are taking a page from Walmart with regards to twisting the arm of their vendors and merchants to get the lowest prices possible and potentially driving down quality as a result. Lower quality/higher-margin items don't necessarily mean they will sell at a discounted price.

> an utterly bankrupt (morally and politically) government

How so? My understanding is that they just won regional elections praised by international observers as free and transparent[0].

Interestingly, western governments/media & opposition claims of fraud (without evidence) directly contradict the findings of the delegation from the Latin American Council of Electoral Experts (CEELA). From the article cited:

The CEELA delegation was comprised of 1300 international observers, including former Colombian Electoral Court President Guillermo Reyes, ex-president of the Honduran Supreme Electoral Court, Augusto Aguilar, and former Peruvian electoral magistrate Gastón Soto.

According to the body’s report, the vote was held under conditions of “total normality” and the right to a secret ballot was “guaranteed”.

I also find this interesting:

For its part, CEELA has reported that it has yet to receive any formal denunciations from the opposition, which has issued its fraud allegations via the media.

President Maduro has requested a 100 percent audit of Sunday’s elections, a call that was subsequently echoed by the [opposition].

Allow me to suggest a few possible courses of action you might take:

1) Make a better one. 50 years in isn't too late and the data is there.
2) Introduce a modicum of specificity into your critique.

I understood it to show a small subset of languages primarily in Europe, clearly marked by contrasting colours. You clearly disagree that this is valid, and you may be right, but saying ~"this map isn't another map" and ~"this map sucks" doesn't add anything to the conversation.
> In our fee-for-service model, this causes the hospital to starve and enter a vicious feedback loop

Sounds like an alignment of interests between hospital management and patients.
As someone who was in a similar situation:

- I'd skip episode 3. Maybe come back to it later. It's the episode that nearly put me off the series. I think 4 is a fairer episode to judge it by.

- It's not a parody of Star Trek and it's not meant to be one. It's more like Seth MacFarlane really wanted to run a Star Trek show and couldn't, so made something about as close as he could while still appeasing the networks with some crude humour thrown in.

It's not as good as TNG but it's definitely an okay Star Trek at this point. They've toned down the stupid humour and premises from where it started.
Lowering the barrier to entry causes screams from that same contingent, just the same as "here's an ID, for free, right now". I know this, because I have been (peripherally) involved with folks trying to push such systems and the pushback from the drown-the-government-in-the-bathtub crew is real and it is strong.

My "talking point", such as it is, is that one political party is actively disinterested in democracy (while the other is more or less ambivalent), and that nobody in that actively-disinterested party is going to let the ambivalent party make this happen. Because it empowers them for it to not happen. It's not rocket science.
This is what I was getting at.
If you want a remake, then yes. If you want something new in the star trek universe, then Discovery is a lot, better acted, better stories, better characters, and has the benefit of not being episodic.
I will probably try my luck with one of these X1 instances https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/x1/

Only fear is that the time/cost it takes to spool up/down would not let us iterate as fast as ideally possible if we owned the hardware and had it running 24/7 for dedicated just in time use.

So rather than rent an X1 instance indefinitely we might just pony up the $ upfront and buy our own.

"Each X1 instance is powered by four Intel® Xeon® E7 8880 v3 (codenamed Haswell) processors and offers up to 128 vCPUs."

Anyone know if the X1 instance is 1 motherboard with 4 sockets or 2 separate mobos with 2?
