I think you took the comment the wrong way. I'm not saying UPS is trivially solvable as a company. I explicitly said there's probably some reason why that solution is not used / not working over Christmas. I'm saying the approximation for an isolated "optimised route for these packages problem" for a truck load of packages is not hard - so what are we missing?
I suspect part of the problem with this approach relates to data set construction. Even though models these days should theoretically be able to handle this task, there are clear ethical concerns and practical issues with making datasets of illegal imagery large enough for training. It really raises the question - is creating a dataset like that ethical, assuming the intentions are to stop further abuse and dissemination?

There might be work arounds (like training one model for nudity and another for age) but such approaches are almost certain to have "suboptimal" performance as compared to a single model trained on a relevant dataset. Maybe something like that is the cause for the performance issues discussed in the article.
I'm saying that life expectancy at birth is a misleading statistic when it comes to gauging the ratio of inputs to outputs on pension programs of any sort.

The miners are greedy bastards. They will be the ones to run this thing into the ground and Kill the Goose that Laid the Golden Egg.

ShapeShift.io is charging an unprecedented 0.003 per transaction. The Coinomi Android wallet is listing their minimum transaction fee (the "LOW" fee) at 0.002 as of last week. The Mycelium Android wallet is trying to scavenge about 0.0025 per transaction at the high end.

And the reason for the high fees IS NOT because of the network congestion: It's because so far the greedy bastard miners are finding where they can get away with it. Probably in fact they purposely slowing down the network to cause the congestion as a ruse in claiming it for an excuse to charge exorbitant fees. This is also an age-old trick that union workers use to get more money for doing nothing on the job by just purposely slowing down the work pace.

Right now anyway, I've seen where the average Bitcoin ATM machines are quite busy with greenhorns who are shoving their cash bills into the machines for a little dab of Bitcoin here and there. Most of those people are buying it to hold it for awhile with the idea in mind of selling it back to the same ATM machine they bought it from and turn a profit. So about the time more and more and more people begin to understand that they are being fleeced for exorbitant transaction fees that dramatically cut into any gains they would have made off of typically small investments, then they will STOP buying Bitcoin from the ATM machines.

Bitcoin will be all washed up within a couple years if for no other reason than these greedy bastard miners who are going to find out that although they made more money in a shorter period of time with their greed, they WOULD have ended up making more money over the long term if they hadn't been the greedy bastards that they are.

Greedy bastards. All of them. Greedy bastards.

> The welfare state is not socialism

You keep using that word, yet I do not think it means what you think it means.

> Some people use socialism interchangeably with communism

Well some people also believe credit and debit cards have no fundamental difference. That they believe it doesn't make it true.

You said yourself something about "the direct control of industry by the worker". That is unequivocally a communist concept.
Reforming a capitalist society to those ideals through democratic process is socialism, but the end goal is a communist equilibrium.

Post transition "socialism" has no meaning and no identifying properties: it is a transformative process by opposition to "true believer" anarchist/communist's grand revolution schemes.

So tell me again how Japan is reforming itself into communism?
> What I generally wonder is, why ISAs don't have special instructions for a task that is so common.

ISAs used to have instructions to support binary coded decimals (BCD). BCD encoding stores values as 0x[0-9][0-9], and the instructions provide math operations on that representation. On x86, these still exist, for example AAD: https://c9x.me/x86/html/file_module_x86_id_2.html

Other ISAs (eg 6502) had a processor flag to switch between regular and BCD mode.
What is amazing is this: It's almost midnight on December 24th. I can still order thousands of items on Amazon Prime Now for delivery in next few hours just in time for Christmas - with free shipping!

It is also clear to me how this is implemented: Available items are all in local Amazon warehouse. The delivery is done by usual Joe the person who has car and can go around one neighborhood. About $8 is recommended tip for the delivery for order < $100. Assuming Joe the person would be going 20 or so deliveries in a small neighborhood, this would take him 5-6 hours. The expected tips alone would make up for minimum wages and fuel expenses.

In all delivery problems, last mile is the most expensive miles and solving it distributedly using local drivers seems like idea even more brilliant than calling cab via phone. You don't need to drag accountants.

I am arguing that you can't create the system where only 100% of speed can be achieved by having 100% non-degraded battery. iPhone must have 10-20% security margin in battery capacity so when battery degrades it doesn't require degrading performance. That can be achieved by 10% thicker phone, right?
IMO Go doesn't differentiate enough to be worth it, has missed its chance and will decline slowly. I can't imagine how someone would convince a java using org to switch to Go even for new projects. The benefits aren't there.

Given how similar drug names can be, for future proofing, you'd want the auto-correct dictionary to blacklist drug names (trademarks, international nonproprietary names, alternative chemical names if there are any, etc...).
Surprised someone didn't make an Android competitor with Inferno OS. It was already part way there to being a mobile OS.

> P.S. "Just use protobuf" is not a solution either.

It's one solution, which makes it a solution. It also happens to be a good solution for 95%+ of data-interchange use-cases.

JSON is a genuinely terrible approach to interchange for most anything that you expect to grow to be nontrivial. Whatever your thought of static vs. dynamic typing for languages, schemaless interchange formats are absolute madness — an analogue to what people are rapidly learning about schemaless databases. "Schemaless" formats don't actually mean there isn't a schema. You have one, it's just informal and you lack any useful tools to manipulate it or make changes in the future.

What you gain in early development speed is lost many times overby not actually stopping to think about how your data will be modeled beforehand and it will be lost many times over again when you need to change your informal parsing logic (e.g., random hash accesses) that's spread across dozens of unrelated areas of your code and impossible to locate. As an added bonus, you often end up having to indefinitely support every buggy, half-baked version of this format going backward to the beginning of time.
Calcium supplements got rid of my insomnia.
For company plans, you said the answer. It's silly to assume that your employer will be alive when you are 80 year sold, and also seems like a stupid idea for a company in a completely unrelated business to get into the retirement fund mgmt business.

For states, the reason is population. If your pop doubles every 50 years, then you only need 2 young people to pay for one retiree. If it's the opposite (Japan now, US in a few decades), then you are screwed.

As a European who has travelled through a lot of Europe, I would say it is uncommon - I don't think I've ever come across it in Europe.
To double down on what user5994461 said, that's indeed a ponzi scheme and quite stupid if you know current population trends.

It also creates quite perverse incentives, as older folks want to reduce their retirement age (even as they live way longer) and raise the contributions of younger people (to pay for the extra costs).
Two Soviets who personally prevented nuclear war.[0][1] If these don't sound like 'dumb luck' to you, well...

> Tired of people blaming machines for working as designed

How is the specific case of autocorrecting "duloxetine" to "fluoxetine" the system "working as designed"?

> this is 100% a fault in the hands of the users in the supposed problem case.

Why is a case like autocorrecting "duloxetine" to "fluoxetine" absolutely not in any way a fault of the developers?

Would an autocorrect system with the smarts to avoid that problem not be better?

.

You seem to be thinking of this in terms of absolutes. One point is that autocorrect, like everything else, has costs and benefits. Just because it has flaws doesn't mean it hasn't got benefits. For me the benefits outweigh the costs. Another is that when flaws are found they can be fixed
I've never considered myself very good at drawing, nor do I have a particularly steady hand.

Couple years ago I acquired some how-to ebooks for drawing simple anime characters. By following the instructions, and a few bucks worth of pencils, I quite surprised myself. I then had a go at the same instructions using an SVG app (Inkscape) and found that quite enjoyable.

Improving definitely takes dedication, which I don't particularly have much of for drawing, but I know the ability is there if I ever feel inspired.
Perversely, it may not be the worst thing if an entire generation decides that building wealth through your primary residence is not the best idea, and forgoes this in their lives and pushes their representatives to repeal the slew of incentives currently written into the tax code.
So if you want to use for example maps on one tab and read text on another, the best UX would be to have users resize their browser when changing tabs?

There are few reasons why a line of text should be longer than, say, 800 (css) pixels, but having the browser full screen might still be a good idea for more app-y sites.
Basically only works when you have a growing economy and a growing population.

Both things are sort of not true anymore in developed nations.
Can't use SQLDeveloper to automate, because you can't call a Java GUI to run SQL and PL/SQL code inside of an OS package postinstall since it has to run in a headless environment. And if you're automating that way, you want a powerful command line SQL client while you're automating, otherwise it's a pain in the ass to switch back and forth.

Nuclear weapons are the reason Russia can invade Ukraine without consequence. And annex Crimea, and attack Georgia.

They are the reason that Turkey can shoot down Russian fighters without Russia attacking Turkey.

They are the reason USA can invade Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. without being counter-attacked by others.

Because of nuclear weapons, we can have dozens of "wars" all the time where nobody has the courage to stop the 10Ks of deaths in each one because we're terrified of millions of deaths.

I don't know how you can say it stops countries from going to war. The largest nuclear powers are in a constant state of war, daring anyone to stop them.
I think the volume and your preference for the music matter a lot. Some places I visit, I love the music and it makes me want to stay longer and come back. In other places, I hate it and want to avoid it.
You can just do binary classification. That makes the decision boundary a bit more complicated, but if you're using neural networks, that is solved by adding another layer at the end.

The "problem" here is probably not the lack of negative training data, but just that they want as few false negatives as possible, so they use a very sensitive model. That naturally increases the number of false positives. It's still a win if you only have to look at some desert pictures instead of literally every picture on someone's computer.
Only in GNU/Linux can it happen that core networking utilities like netstat, arp and ifconfig fall into neglect. Because no, they don't know any better.
BTW, the enantiomer thing is a common trick used by the pharma industry to double the life of a patent. They first release the racemic mix, then the purified, active enantiomer once the original patent expires.

The racemic mix usually has a slightly higher level of side effects.
Interesting. My view as a dilettante on the sidelines was that LNT was on it's way to being discredited. i.e. along the lines of the last paragraph here: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Linear_no-threshold

I'd be interested to know more about the current balance of thinking on the topic. The optimist in me obviously would prefer a less awful relationship between exposure and mortality but sadly I can't impose my wishes on reality.
Reading the paper, he specifically doesn't care about cause of death, just excess.

Interesting tidbits. Most discussion about dangers of radiation is about cancer. But some stuff I've heard centered around Chernobyl is other types of mortality increase.
Despite a huge proportion of wind Germany still produces nearly twice as much CO2 per kWh than France :(
Shocking to see Australia's carbon emissions from electricity production. Australia has abundant space for wind and solar (and a lot of solar potential) and still gets most of the electricity from coal..

posting this to see if someone else is also having similar feeling: if cloud providers are selling the open source products, shouldn't the committers get paid as well?

Feelings have no place in computer science or information technology!!!

The only way the committers can make money with their open source code is through selling support contracts because other methods are unreliable.
I won't put too much weight on TIOBE index (its mainly created from search engine stats). If you are looking for rankings from jobs perspective, just look at the direct job stats for languages. IEEE Specturm probably has better ranking:

https://spectrum.ieee.org/static/interactive-the-top-program...
But that's due to nuclear. I don't support coal plants but Germany is on the right trajectory to lower emissions in a sustainable way. France will still have to go through that process at some point, it's not as if they'd figured out what to do with nuclear waste.
Economic education sucks. Economics is a tiny part of sociology, one that deals with exchange of goods. Actually, not even that, lots of ways of exchange of goods are out of scope of economics and studied by anthropologists.

Now look at how the education structure looks like. In my home town the university has the entire self-standing economics college. Then there is smaller philosophy college, which has a small department of sociology.

It makes it pretty hard for students of economics to look beyond the confines of their little world.
You guys are both right.

However what we are trying to provide is a different tool.

I believe we all appreciate the power of an SQL engine but also the simplicity of operation of Redis.

Here we are trying to bridge the two, a powerful SQL engine that is extremely simple to operate.

You can actually create a new lightweight database, with a simple comand and have several different process (microservices in different machines?) connect to it.

Finally I really believe in the NoSQL movement, but sometimes you just need to park your data somewhere and have join and filters without the hassle of operating a postgresql instance...

I exposed the main motivation of the project here: http://redbeardlab.tech/rediSQL/motivations/
That's what you get for having the "green" party in power in Germany - they pushed for phasing out the nuclear and now it looks how it looks.
I (the author) replied to the other comment, you may be interested.
Care to elaborate? I havent done any frontend stuff in a few months but it appears to be the only solution there. Even when using typescript, you still want and need to know js.

Regarding Java, i think its a good starting point if you want to hack your first web project together. You sort of see how everything works together. Before that I always recommend looking at C just to know what you are missing out on. If there is some calculation happening you can always call some C/C++ code to see if you get some speed ups by optimizing for the cache (just an interesting experiment if youve never done it before.

Australia's energy is so expensive -- despite most of it coming from coal -- that going off-grid with wind and solar and some batteries is disturbingly cost-effective.

We're a basket case down here. The lack of certainty surrounding energy policy means there's much less appetite for investment in this area than there should be.

It's not a ponzi scheme, it's a numbers game. Basically the formula is: X * Y = A * B, where X is the number of retirees, Y the number of years they live past retirement on average, A the number of people who work, and B the number of years an average career lasts.

What is happening in europe is that the right-hand side of the equation is producing a lower number (due to later career starts and less actively working population), which requires reducing the left-hand side accordingly (by increasing retirement age or cutting pensions). The system cannot collapse (there's always a right-hand side), but it can require severe adjustments.
How do does one get involuntarily booted from coverage provided by the ACA? Or did she voluntarily drop coverage? If the latter, that’s 100% on her, but if the former then that seems like it should be impossible and I’m very curious how it happened, that doesn’t make sense but then again neither does health insurance sometimes. :(
Don't care. I just want to clean my hands.
The ability of the government to freeze your bank account is based (to some degree) on a consensus (or at least tolerance) of the people in the country that the government should have these powers.

Same is true for crypte-currencies. If some hacker manages to steal a big amount of money then (almost) everybody agrees to make a hardfork and the hacker looses his money. It is more decentralized and the hacker could keep some part of the money if there is a side chain.

Hacker scenario already happend. But there is no need for a crime to happen to cause a tokens redistribution. If 80% of all token holders (miners for bitcoin?) are poor what stops them from redistributing the tokens of the rich token holders?
