You read that comment with bad understanding or bad faith. They explicitly argue against tying (epi)genetics to evaluating someone's potential.

Whether you agree with that guidance or not, whether you agree with the implications, such data exists. Trying to wish it away contributes to the toxic hellstorm that exists in public discourse around these subjects. It retrenches the people who are curious about it and sends them into the narrative arms of the people who want to misuse it for their own social ends. It's much more productive to argue why such data is extremely limited, poorly understood and not conclusive.
I agree it's bad economics, but not for the same reason. I think it's bad economics because it prevents cheap/free access to a huge corpus of media. This provides a barrier to entry for startups and entrepreneurs.

I've heard it claimed that Google could have never been started in Europe due to their copyrights laws being so onerous.
You get an uncanny valley feeling because the Western media always exaggerates the degree of how Orwellian or how much influence the Chinese government really has, so that they can get more clicks from people unfamiliar with China or who are mildly racist.

"His success was being involved with people with genius and vision that were willing to put up with his shit."

Which was in no way an accident.

Jobs talent was identifying these people, and building environments around them that maximized their talents, while also identifying how to translate those ideas into products people wanted to pay money to buy.

Just because a lot of people say it, doesn't make it right.

Actually, that’s exactly how the English language works. There’s no governing body that matters who determines what counts as correct English. The closest thing is the dictionaries but those change all the time, in response to....people using words differently.
Do you think companies will/should make explicit the cause of higher/differential pricing? On the one hand, it could anger consumers. On the other hand, it would provide transparency so that consumers would understand where the price increase came from.
Recursion is usually clearer that iterative because it assigns names to the work being done. I find that much easier to read. Better yet: when you can state your cases separately. That's even more readable.
That’s right.
I'm a bit disappointed in HN that you got downvoted. Your first sentence might be inflammatory, but you do follow it up with completely valid criticisms, all of which I always remind people of when they try to sell me on public transit.

An additional refinement on comfort is temperature (and, I'm sure, for some locales, humidity). No matter what ones preference, that's also a roll of the dice. If it's a train, and you're lucky enough to be on a system that allows it, you could try moving between cars in search of your personal Goldilocks Zone, but that can mean sacrificing a seat and may not be feasible with luggage.

Now, here's an alternative (or wishful thinking): business class. This already exists in air travel (privatized public transit) and on some commuter rail lines (semi-privatized in the US?).

I think it's telling that, especially on short-haul flights there's a tendency for first class sections on planes to get smaller or disappear entirely (or never exist in the first place on no-frills airlines), but I don't wish for first class luxury. I would only want what you mention: privacy, consistent comfort, or even a seat (a guaranteed one), with the possible addition of amenities such as electrical outlets and internet.

I have a theory as to why it's merely wishful thinking and would never "fly", which I'll share if anyone's interested.

There's another major problem that I see with public transit (in the sense of the proposed utopia), and that's that enough people actually want to live in suburbs, where it's way too expensive to run even a halfway decent transit system.

The last major problem that I think is inadequately addressed, is freedom, although you touched on it by mentioning privacy. Cars grant the greatest freedom of movement we have available.

A car allows someone to go almost anywhere almost any time at remarkably high speed with modest incremental (monetary) cost and little to no advance planning or notice required. Of course, whether this on-a-whim freedom is desireable/beneficial on a macro is debatable, but I think it's pretty clear it's desireable by individuals.

In the densest cities with the best transit systems during peak hours, using that system can replicate (and even surpass!) this freedom of movement. However, that falls apart if ones trip extends outside of those peak hours or outside the city[1].

[1] This is, at times, considered a feature by some US suburbs in that it makes it effectively impossible for poor people from the city to come out to their neighborhoods, though this may seem weird to us in booming cities where land close to the center is most expensive and is cheapest at the outskirts.

I agree, in the case where there is a REMS, FDA can't do anything, and in the case where there isn't, FDA can do even less.

Agreed that a legislative fix seems reasonable. That would actually be a pretty straightforward way to reduce drug prices at least for a subset of drugs. However as weve seen with recent action / inaction on drug pricing, public and bipartisan support of drug price controls + heavy pharma lobbying = watered down legislation / lots of talk and little action

“Not that hard and costly to comply with”

That’s what you think. But its still a risk, because its different. It’s still easier and cheaper short term and long term just to skip the oddballs.

It’s why you see so many online contests in the US that only apply here. Not because they want to avoid it, but because its easier and cheaper not to comply with other laws.
From what we have seen in our tests, the pattern holds for the number of rows n, where n = the number of integers contained in a cell. After n rows the symmetry breaks. We haven't tested every possible n yet however. It would be great to do more tests and let's see if there are exceptions.

Regulators want to see that you thought about the issue and formulated a plan.

If they ultimately disagree with your judgments, they will tell you, and you'll have plenty of time to get a common understanding.

They will certainly not fine you just because you made a honest mistake.

They will maybe fine you if all you have to show is "I didn't want to find a plausible way myself, nobody spoon-fed me, it's not my fault".
This is called Yak Shaving and happens all the time when building complex systems, especially by yourself.

Sometimes DP problems are pretty complex in a convoluted way employing some weird tricks before you could see it the DP way; it's best to take some advanced DP problems from TopCoder or ICPC and dissect them in detail.

Google ads where for the little guys, those small blogs, and personal web pages, with only a few thousands visitors/months. And you earned just as much as the big guys per user. Now it's only for the big guys, good luck earning anything if you have less then 10,000 monthly visitors. And it's the same for advertisers, good luck getting any clicks on your ads (99% of clicks are bots) if your budget is less then $10,000. When more and more people start to use ad blockers, there will only be bots left. There's more money then ever in advertising. But you need to be big in order to see any of it. I guess Google have tried to fight the bots, but it's an impossible battle with too many false positives, and small guys losing their hard earned ad money. I guess Google is too big to notice, they are one of the big guys, and they always get their share. I hope they go back to non intrusive text ads, show some love for the small guys, and kill the bot. Maybe add "captcha" to ads after you click them !? They need to do something drastic or their whole ad based business might crumble from beneath.
My GP send me to the "pain center" (I don't know what it's called in English), and the MD that I've seen a does nothing but headaches.

There are two conditions I would want to see fulfilled by explanations of philosophy that would allow me to outmode reading older philosophers:

That the explanation adequately creates distinctions between the terms used by the philosopher and other such terms that are similar but must be distinguished.

That the viewpoint of the philosopher is contextualized by the diff between various other viewpoints on the same issue.

(Ian Hacking is a philosopher of statistics in science which is very good at this, and he didn't even have to invent statistics.)

But oftentimes when the explainer caste of writers seeks to summarize philosophy, they do so in a way that focuses on the conclusions and takes for granted the presuppositions that had to be explored in order to reach those conclusions.

When asking someone who has taken the summary to unpack each term in a sort of reverse-analysis, I think that they would have a difficult time because they didn't see the struggle that would have motivated the analysis in the first place.

The author of the OP is correct that there is resistance that makes philosophical explanations less fungible than, say physics methods. It's because the terms used by philosophers are not mathematical in a way that can be easily copied. Instead they are the thing that constructs the semantics of terms which are eventually reified by mathematical syntax.
Thats a pretty ignorant statement. I'd wager that there aren't many people who could/would put the same effort into self studying that would be required to pass a CS degree with decent grades. They also would probably not learn a lot of stuff that is not interesting to them, while CS students have no choice than to go through the materials. As an employer this also tells a story about who is taking the easy route vs working through a complete program over the span of years.
Obviously there are exceptions, but when there are a lot of applicants for a position, it's just an easy filter for employers.

Report: Aide says Nixon's war on drugs targeted blacks, hippies
I feel like "genius" is almost always an ex post facto label that's doled out to make us feel better about our own lack of ambition. That person did something really wild and interesting? Clearly they're a genius, so why even bother striving for anything quite so good?

Same with the recent Steve Jobs threads. Or any thread featuring prominent programmers or founders.

I think immediately reaching for the "genius defense" (whether deserved or not) does far more harm than good.

Quoting corrupt congresswoman Mary Bono: "Actually, Sonny wanted the term of copyright protection to last forever. I am informed by staff that such a change would violate the Constitution. I invite all of you to work with me to strengthen our copyright laws in all of the ways available to us. As you know, there is also Jack Valenti's proposal for term to last forever less one day. Perhaps the Committee may look at that next Congress."

They want copyright forever. They have the entitlement to think it should be forever.

Since those in power no longer respect it being for a limited time, I put forth the "exclusive rights" should not be respected either. I do not consider or respect any copyrights held by Mary Bono as a result.
Would you like to respond to my points, or are you going to use the same tactic you did last time and completely ignore what others write in order to push your own agenda?

This is a law with good intent that was very poorly written and is very ambiguous. Most of the people with your view posting here aren’t experts in this regulation or the law in general, but just armchair lawyers who scanned this regulation and like the intent so they argue that it’s simple.

Ironically, if you asked 10 different people with that position about basic facts about this law, you’d all have different answers. Maybe if it’s so simple you could all take a few mins to get your story straight on how it works?

I wonder whether in fact the Apple engineer was glad to have official permission from the boss to do the Right Thing.

It's not exactly uncommon to have the choice between one option that's clearly better technically, and another that's easier to implement with the limited time and resources you have, or more compatible with customers' peculiar needs, or a better fit for now-clearly-unwise decisions made in the past.

And usually you pick the technically inferior decision with a little sigh and a feeling of regret that the right business decision isn't the right technical decision.

But if the CEO has just shouted at you that you have to do the technically right thing ... well, getting shouted at is seldom fun, but it's got to make a pleasant change to be not just allowed but instructed to do whatever it takes to go with the design you think is "ideal".
It's an interesting board for sure - it also has HDMI and PCIe... something for everyone! I wonder if they are planning to let you program the FPGA from the Arduino IDE, that's sort of hard to imagine.

Final edit but too late to edit my post:

After thinking about it on the ride home today, I was not quite on the right track before. Again don't want to post my solution because the entire point in asking was so that people could see the question and work it through themselves.
I don't think you represent the average coder. I'm willing to bet most people if shown 10 recursive and 10 iterative solutions to the same problems would admit the iterative approach is more intuitive. Especially since with a for loop you can control the number of iterations which has a number of optimization benefits. Now if its just while loops vs recursive then there's not much of a difference, however that is not the case.

> about a half-micron away from "I can, so why can't you?".

That was not at all the intention! I've developed a way to handle my issue, to the point where I can more or less shut my mind out of my body for hours. Kind of awake sleep. I have no notion of how many hours I'm out, but I'm aware the entire time.

What I've gone through to get to that point, I wouldn't wish for my worst enemy.
The basic idea there makes sense to me, but I actually think later writers will be better at putting it into context as well, partly because they have more information on the context, and partly because the tendency when someone is first developing a new idea is to just get it working, rather than immediately analyzing where it fits in the history of ideas.

That said, I think it's definitely valuable to go back and look at original sources after starting with a more efficient, contemporary exposition.
I used range(row * (row - 1) // 2 * n + col, row * (row + 1) // 2 * n + col, row) in Python. For n = 14, row = 13, col = 3, this is

[1095, 1108, 1121, 1134, 1147, 1160, 1173, 1186, 1199, 1212, 1225, 1238, 1251, 1264]

none of which are prime. cellToTerms(13, 14, binomialCoEfficient2, 3) in the observable gives the same list (though no such calls are made when generating the picture).
Word, thanks!
>This shouting has made whole areas of human research impossible to study in practice.

Maybe here in the West, but something tells me China isn't going to get caught up in either the ethical or political implications of such research. They'll just do it and quickly operationalize (or weaponize) whatever they discover as fast as possible.
There's a huge market in repairing and retrofitting capital equipment. I've been working with someone doing just that for a while now as he gets his customers to validate the device I built.

Just like we'd use a bit of code to glue software utilities together, the same concept exists in hardware. Build simple interfaces to connect bits of hardware that were never designed to work together. A common, and cheap example are the USB to Serial converter dongles.

It's a great way to fix a 40 year-old machine that you can't get spare parts for: figure out a way to interface it to a more modern controller at a small fraction of the cost of a new machine.

When I worked at http://zipcodedownload.com we constantly used whiteboards to code. That, of course, is when we had a parent company. Now that we are independent its gone by the wayside. Don't like it as well.
The way to make that happen is for some interested party to take the LFS code and submit it for merging into git proper. If there were prior attempts, study them carefully and learn from them. It probably won't be accepted the first time, so you need to be persistent, addressing reviewer's comments along the way.
As a non-American, I often wonder, “under what conditions would Americans avail themselves of the need to form a militia to ‘take back’ their government?”

I honestly find it hard to contrive a scenario of government ill behaviour that might be a trigger, that hasn’t already happened.

This is a serious question from an outsider - can anyone paint me a picture in which you realistically expect that citizens would resort to their guns in order to fix their country as per the 2nd amendment? Or have I completely misunderstood the purpose of the 2nd amendment?
That is a huge if. By 1998, the big three basically couldn't stand each other anymore and only kept showing up because they wanted to finish out the second threepeat. If they managed to keep the wheels from coming off in the 98-99 season, they possibly could have beaten the Spurs, even though Rodman was definitely declining by then and the Spurs had two Hall-of-Fame big men and the Bulls had Luc Longley. In 2000, they'd run into Shaq and Kobe, and by then, Shaq was unstoppable.
What if the extreme views may be correct?
