You can to at least some degree though once you've imposed the constraint that there needs to be a competent licensed driver in the car because they need to handle the endpoints in any case.

Certainly, the car needs to be able to recognize conditions where it needs to turn over control with, say, one minute warning. And we're not at that point today. But one can imagine things like radio beacons for construction zones for example. It's not easy but it seems much easier than the more general case and it's also possible to get too hung up on truly weird corner cases like traffic going down the freeway in the wrong direction.

It's hard to tell if they're a success. With enough time and money you can make almost everything work. It does not mean that there weren't better alternatives available.
I would do the same if I weren't afraid of coming off as passive-aggressive given that I voiced my opinions in the past but received a reply in the vein of: "We're aware that this old code is really bad, but with our constrained resources we need to prioritize keeping this boat afloat.".
Again, nodejs really pushes me away when each 'npm install' could install god knows how many modules/dependencies in that I have absolutely no idea or control, it just feels so bloated and unsafe sometimes.

because of that, plus now it is also used for frontend, it is no surprise the "packaging" tool becomes mandatory and complex.

I think the product is good and the presentation is excellent, what are your running costs if i can ask?

Before giving up I suggest:
- tracking your users behaviour (pikwik, google analytics, tamboo, etc.)
- experimenting with long term bulk discounts
- creating drip marketing campaigns
- find 10 niches which heavily use facebook in your area (e.g. bands, djs, wedding photographers, dog trainers, etc.) and consider tailoring your services towards them: create landing pages that appeal to those niches and see which ones stick.

Try to see if the problem is FB itself, maybe other social networks (say, instagram) could work better for some niches which require a picture portfolio, some text content and a contact page.

I think that 1-2 sign-ups a week is too low for you to have enough chances of a conversion, try enlarging the funnel entrance (e.g. by doing in-person marketing, licensing your instant-website tool to small hosting companies you find on lowendbox, etc.) and see if conversion rate changes.

Why the Fermi Paradox is wrong
There is the worry that there might be a whole new set of problems that will arise with this system.

The other worry I have, and where I think, in the long run I will probably be right, is that, when the system collapses and cryptocurrencies' price crashes, nobody except for these few individuals will care for any philosophic reasons to support this product. People invested in crypto to make money, not to support free, distributed networks or smart contracts. It would be sad to see the entire idea vanish at that point.
Yup. It is a very promising area of rejuvenation research. I think right now most dollars are allocated to understanding basic mitochondrial function. As well as cures for the pernicious degenerative diseases associated with malfunctioning mitochondria that cruelly tend to develop in young children. But there is no question: further research activities and clinical trials have a high probability of bearing fruit. Cryo-EM visualization of metabolic pathways. Even understanding function and purpose of the THC cannabinoid receptors found on their outer membranes could unlock their mysterious hidden potential.

Depending on the language, they might not prevent anything because asserts can/will be ignored in production. See for example Java, python -O.
Combinatorial explosions are best mitigated by doing property based testing, design by contract and creating clean, low level abstractions which you test against.

In practice I've also run into a lot of combinatorial explosions for which unit testing is worse than useless. E.g. say you have a library that has two dependencies and interacts with browsers you can have:

* 30 different versions of library A

* 50 different versions of library B

* 25 different versions of the language runtime

* 30 different browsers

That's over a million different potential variations for every test. In practice though, there's a sharp power law. You don't have to test all of those variations, you just have to randomly throw variations at the code until bugs stop cropping up. 99% of the bugs you find probably be found in the first 1,000 iterations.

Musk is one of the most impressive entrepreneurs of our time. But he is also just human. Sometimes "totally fucked up" as you put it is the way we react, even when we shouldn't.

Musk could have chosen to ignore calls for help, but instead he exposed himself to the risk of failure. Then he was told his efforts were just PR and to "stick the submarine up where it hurts" by one of the now famous divers who currently speaks from a position not much less public than Musk's. Being told he had ulterior motives after repeatedly asking the person in charge of the rescue mission if they were sure they wanted his help (as the email shows), and after spending what is likely hundreds of thousands of dollars and days trying to help, is extremely disrespectful. I agree that he should have ignored it or simply rebuked it. But I understand he couldn't.

But the goal of tests isn't just to find bugs in newly-written code. It's to defend against regressions, and a regression is even harder to localize, given the team may not even be well-familiar with the failing code.

This is a good trend. Will we see more work aimed at separating the data model and human interface (to make programming with attributed graphs safe and convenient) from back end issues (how to store data and process queries efficiently, where traditional databases are already very advanced.)
Duh. Looks like there's a fundamental misunderstanding of how statistics works all around. The probability of an event does NOT predict a particular outcome. Ever. It only says that if the experiment is performed again and again and again, like a few thousand times, then X% of those will match that probability.

If I toss a fair coin you cannot predict the next outcome. You can only say that if I toss the coin a 1000 times, then close to 500 are going to turn up heads, and another 500 are going to turn up tails.

It was stupid of Goldman Sachs or whoever to predict an outcome. It was stupid of anyone else to lend credence to that prediction.

Hopefully, Goldman Sachs is not relying on prediction of singular outcomes to make their investment decisions. I don't think they are. Probably just marketing brouhaha to ride the soccer wave. Although I'm not sure if that worked as expected.

That's going to be true with the database theft too.

I'm not so sure that's won't raise any red flags anywhere (foreign IP and possibly a lot of data being transferred). Imo it should, but we can't really know?

I agree with rest of what you said though.
Maybe I'm a worse than average coder, but I find it nearly impossible to write a "unit" of code without also writing one or two bugs along the way. So whether you do your testing ad hoc as you develop, or write unit tests, you do have to spend time in testing each unit of code you write. It doesn't seem to me that formalizing this into a repeatable unit test is adding a lot of real extra work.

>Banks make no money on predictions. They make money on flows and taking spreads on trades they do with clients.

You're mostly right but to further clarify, an investment bank like Goldman Sachs has revenue from mostly "market making" spreads but it does also have activities that depend on predictions such as their proprietary trading (before the Volcker Rule shut them down) and their GSAM (Goldman Sachs Asset Management) fund. The GSAM is basically a hedge fund for their wealthy clients' money. They will run predictions on macro trends on data like interest rates, commodities, indexes, etc to help them pick stocks for their portfolio.

As the pdf noted, the World Cup data models and simulations came from Adam Atkins of GSAM.

> Even when I trust my ISP, that is no reason not to have defense in depth.

But if this is the method we are following, we will also need to think about the costs-vs-benefits of different security measures.

If patching known exploits or threat-models, the cost-vs-benefit generally allows for very strong security measures because you know the risks if you don't implement it and you know when the measure is implemented and you are done.

However, with "defense-in-depth" you could always add another layer of encryption, add another sandbox layer or make a system less general-purpose. If security is your only priority, there is no point where you would stop.

For the latter, GraphQL itself explicitly forbids recursivity [0], as it's impossible to guarantee that in all cases the data isn't infinitely recursive, especially with cyclic queries, which could lead to a denial-of-service. Postgres has its own support for recursive queries [1], however you'd need to strap a pagination layer on top in order to make it work with GraphQL.

Couple things: First, 23andMe is not medical advice and I don't know how they get away with supplying such advice. Second, all medications incur risk to your body, so taking something like a Herpes medication for years in the hope that it might prevent Alzheimer's is a bit insane. A doctor needs to prescribe it (in the US, anyways) so you would have to have their approval anyways.

My mother has dementia, so this issue hits home for me, btw. But I don't see myself taking some medication in order to try and prevent something I may never end up getting. Herpes medications are not vitamins, if you get what I mean.

I'm a mathematical illiterate (no really, and I'm not proud). The headline hurts my head - does "risk 10 times lower" mean that there is one 10th of the risk? so a 1 in 10 chance becomes 1 in 100?
Yeah it's abit of a fluff piece, but compared to stuff that comes out in the US scene everyday it's nothing.

The money should be there (e.g. in a trust fund) before conception.

Yes, their parents, obviously.

I’m sure Haskell is great, just saying its a bit of a risk to add to your stack if you don’t already have Haskell developers in house.

That, and the AGPL issue are both more important in this case (compared to MongoDB), because of the position in the stack that Hasura GraphQL Engine (HGE) would have. In the MongoDB case, we would almost always have an application server between Mongo and the GraphQL client, where custom business logic could be implemented, so Mongo can be treated as an external system whose source code we do not need to modify (like PostgreSQL in the case of HGE).

In case of HGE, the GraphQL client would talk directly to HGE, and thus any customisation would most likely need to happen inside HGE, whether by plugins or patches or whatnot, making it tricky to avoid having to open source your custom business logic (as well as probably having to write it in Haskell).
The cited example was attempted reproduced and found wanting. A plausible reason for this was discovered, and is accessible online. This in much better than no replication being performed at all.
But yes, we need to continuously up the game. Adopting a standard that ensures model stability would be a good next target, and not accepting papers that don't uphold it.

I'd also like to see open-source runnable code the default for paper acceptance, with some sort of 'punishment' for not having it. Maybe even make it prerequisite of empirical papers.

Not in the slightest. If you would rank all types of encryption by strength, this would be one of the weakest ones, right between writing the text upside down and choosing a custom font.
I believe the possibility of "making it fast" is taken in account in the existing design, to avoid designing a format which can't be cheaply optimised & hardware-implemented.
That's an 'old windows text rendering' thing. You can turn variable fonts on in Firefox, and it behaves like Chrome; but neither one works like that on MacOS.

For me this depends on what I'm working on, and these days my unit tests are generally for API regression. When I'm writing my APIs, generally my "integration" test would simply involve an external request and assertions of the response. This is fantastic for testing what a client expects, not as good at specific units of business logic where regression can be rather expensive. I would agree many folks take unit testing too far, but in some cases it's saved my neck at a pretty small cost of creation.

This is probably not the same story for something like a react or swift application. Good read, thanks for the solid points.
