I'm not clear on what list you think Rand might be added to, but when I was an undergrad over 20 years ago, our philosophy department included a course that covered some of her work, among that of others. She was mentioned by name in the course description, though I can't speak to the content of the course beyond that.

In order to understand the problem of her popularity among philosophers compare her to someone else who was influential in having written philosophy, plays and fiction, and also for having had some political influence: Jean-Paul Sartre. Imagine Sartre's position in the canon if his writing was not Nobel-prize quality and was - let's be frank - pretty bad, but he was still in possession of some political influence, somehow, as a public intellectual. Under those analogous circumstances, I'm not sure we'd even know who he was here in the United States.

We might be talking about different points of time. I am looking at post ww2 US to today. I would agree with you that so far over the long term conditions have been greatly improved and still are being greatly improved in areas which don't have much to begin with like china 20-30 years ago. As it stands for the past few decades though the situation has been getting worse in the US.

To your point about "trickle down doesn't work". Where is your evidence that it does work? The trickle down theories have been going on for at least a hundred years when it was horse and sparrow and we haven't seen improvements to the average person from it. The largest improvements have come from labor rights having to physically fight companies for it ~100 years ago, and the post war boom when tax rates on the top income levels were at their historical highs. Since trickle down economics started getting pushed into the economy and tax rates have been continually lowered for the richest, we've seen conditions for everyone not in tech or finance stagnate or go down.

Additionally the US government expenditures are not a black hope that wealth and goods are tossed into. They stimulate the economy as well, although I will agree that much of it is comically inefficient

For your point about regulations I'm not sure how explain my feelings on it eloquently, but yes those massive regulations exist and end up squeezing out the smaller players. What they have become though is just another tool for large corporations to keep competition out while not changing their behavior much. We end up having regulations to keep the environment clean that make it impossible for small manufactories to run profitably but still don't keep pollution gone. Those regulations are bad and I can't point to the government as a good solution on how to get good regulations, but I do believe that they get it right sometimes where if it's left up to corporations there will always be a race to the bottom and we will get no protections
> Yee, noted how he’s heard from seniors and people in wheelchairs who are “being imperiled and inconvenienced because they are having to navigate around scooters and bikes.”

This is one of the more unconvincing statements in this article. The massive convenience win that shared bicycles, scooters, cars etc bring to cities is well worth the "inconvenience" of them being parked on the sidewalk.

I think SF needs to go the route of Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen etc and designate MANY, MANY bicycle parking zones on the city's sidewalks.

As long as the companies are decentized to allow their machines to be a public nuisance (fines), they will pass on the cost of poor parking behavior to whomever actually place the scooter in a dangerous / rude / thoughtless place. See the "Mobike Score" [0].

I hate the rhetoric that the streets are being vitiated by shared transportation. There are simple fixes to these problems.

Yeah, but it is quite interesting what the relevant target times are.

Does a 10 minute delay require something like a 10 or 20 minute target time to keep consensus or is it more like 2 hours or even a day?
How does is this effected by the ratio of hash-rates over the planets?
What happens when you have clusters (say earth - moon and mars - phobos)?

In any case, if the target times need to increase by too much, things become infeasible. And I'd guess that at any given target time, there is distance from earth where computations no longer contribute to the hash-rate on earth. Thus, the claim that 'the hash-rate is universal' would be false.
There's probably a good reason they didn't mention that, or durability.

Your profile has nothing in it. You appear to have no interest in using HN to make those kinds of connections. So no surprise that you don't have that if it isn't a goal of yours.

It is a goal of mine. And when I do the same things the men do, it doesn't get the same results. When men want to pursue something professionally, they routinely say "Email in profile." When I invite someone to take it to email, the most common outcome is they hit on me.

One guy spent some weeks talking to me and pretending to be my friend before mentioning that he was married and needed a shoulder to cry on because his marriage was in the toilet and he was hoping I would be said shoulder to cry on. I gave him about 3 more days of my time to cry on my shoulder, at which point he resumed sleeping with his wife while talking at me like we were lovers, never mind that I told him up front I was not going to be the Other Woman. I cut him loose at that point. The more I think about how he intentionally withheld his marital status, the madder and more used and lied to I feel.

There's a whole lot more backstory here that I am unwilling to comment on here. Suffice it say, I have good reason to believe that if I were male, I would have professional connections here of meaningful value.

If you don't want to use HN to make such connections, cool. But it's aggravating to be constantly told that this is an unrealistic expectation of mine when other people clearly pull it off and then also get told that my gender isn't the problem. If it's not, what is?

That's correct. UK is the only major (in some vague sense) Country where diabetic retinopathy is not the leading cause of preventable blindness in adults. This is very likely because they are able to screen more than 80% (nearing 85%) of their diabetic population, an impressive feat. This leads to another issue: they need to consistently grade the retinal images of over 2.2 million patients with diabetes. This is where AI could help -- in improving the consistency and turn-around time and we are working with the NHS UK to explore this.
I suspect regulators have learned from Uber and AirBnB that if you take a "wait and see" approach to regulating startups, by the time you decide to regulate they're already big enough they think they can thumb their nose at regulators with impunity.

As someone else pointed out - for the intergalactic version we'd need an interval much longer than 10 minutes.

This is why 10 minutes was chosen by Satoshi probably - it's plenty of time for everyone to communicate the solved block, yet not too terribly long in "human time".

> You didn't answer my question. I asked it because I want to know if the people most vocally arguing that de-biasing is a moral imperative will admit even one case where there might be a compelling reason to see the world as it is, even if that association is considered "problematic".

I didn't find those questions to be that smart, to be honest, they're more on the scare-mongering side, and I find that a smart question should have half of the answer included in it and a scare-mongering question doesn't look like it contains anything smart (at least to me). But if you really want to know my answer is "yes" to all of your questions. To get into more details: I grew up as a kid into a middle-class-ish family and back then I had no issues going to the "ghetto"/dangerous area of the town I grew up in (I grew up in Eastern Europe, so that the "dangerous" area was populated by the local gipsy community instead of the AfroAmerican/Latino communities now associated with the "dangerous" areas of US cities). I turned up fine.

> If people will admit this, then we can argue over where the line should be. But many don't appear to admit that a line even exists.

I know of that line, I was just trying to say that further reinforcing it using ML techniques will only aggravate things at a societal level (so that "dangerous" areas will become even more "dangerous"). At least when the discrimination happens out of our (us, humans) own volition there are ways to fix it, but once we "outsource" our racist-tendencies to ML-like tools the voice inside of us telling us that this is all wrong will become even weaker. After all, the algorithms/machines are more "right" then us, humans, that's what we like to think.

Here's the sequence of the viral-like sequence they're calling Steamer:

We've got a bunch of similar viral-like DNA within our own genomes. And it appears some of those sequences might actually 'fight' each other over evolutionary time scales (dominant negative variants expressed from common viral-promoters) - to the point where their infighting actually is in some sense part of our own immune system's ability to ward off incoming viral sequences in favor of existing sequences we're playing host to.

You're mistaken about that not being 4-colorable. Color the "rings", from outside to inside: red, blue, green, blue, yellow.

Again, as mentioned in my earlier comment, I would suggest thinking of things / describing things in terms of plane graphs rather than "maps". It'll make everything easier.

I might also suggest learning some of the relevant graph theory? It sounds like you're trying and failing to embed a K_5, or perhaps an arbitrary K_n, into the plane. That can't be done, and the proof that this is impossible is much easier than the full 4-color theorem. (There are also the 5-color and 6-color theorems, which again have much easier proofs than the 4-color theorem, and which are another reason you can't embed an arbitrary K_n in the plane.)
