Another great learning opportunity is to look at the millions of other small businesses around you.

The coffee shop you're sitting in to write code... the proprietor has:

* Payroll expenses
* Marketing, Sales, Promotion
* Rent
* Recruiting
* Supply chain
* Inventory and storage
* Utility bills
* Legal entity structure
* Accounting / taxes

Fundamentally, all small businesses have the same core challenges. Indie software shops are not much different.

In math, "deep" means that it connects together many things that seem unrelated on the surface, or that it helps explain or prove many things. By that standard, the existence of uncomputability is a deep result.
Glad Monero made the list.

Sad to see XLM is not included.
Most successful interactions with Siri/Alexa/Cortana/GoogleNow also fall under the same paradigm. They have some finite number of templates/recipes that they can respond to, and just enough "NLP" to attempt a fuzzy matching between what you ask for, and the triggers to the recipes.

The key point is that communication is fundamentally serial, in both voice and basic text consoles, whereas GUIs allow parallel communication streams (and hence "exploration") organized spatially.

I find it ironic how the same people consider GUIs a more newbie friendly interaction paradigm than the terminal/console, and then say the same for voice interfaces over GUIs.
Most women would not consider such an ordinary social interaction to be harassment, but suppose a small fraction do - being perceived or accused of harassment is such a negative thing that it can be a strong deterrent even if there's a low chance of it actually happening.

Video games are the addiction that really messed my life up.

Exercise is the thing I never did that REALLY makes your life better.

So I've decided to combine the two. I can play as much console games as I want, as long as I am peddling on my recumbent bike on a difficult setting.

I started out I could only do 1/2 hour before not wanting to play anymore. Now I'm down 30 pounds and can bike hard for about an hour while I play Fortnite/Overwatch/Zelda.

It's worked so well the only thing that I'm worried about now is maybe wearing out my knees or something.
I'm not trivializing problems. And I agree people writing wholly new solutions to complicated things is a hilarious cliche. I'd never say, "go write your own JSON parser." And like you said, they're already solved problems. That means there are many ways to DIY, including forking, or cloning just the parts you need.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding your comment, but I wouldn't consider having an optional paid version of your free product to be sketchy practice? I use feedly and I've never paid a penny. Sure, they've tried to upsell me a handful of times but that's hardly insidious. I mean I'm literally already using their product, what's wrong with offering me a pro account?
Yeah, but I think that option is mostly used as a way for women to keep men from messaging them so they can message the ones they choose without being constantly harassed by throngs of men they aren't interested in. Not that it works, a lot of men message anyway because they never read the profile in the first place. A better strategy is to identify as homosexual and explain in your initial message that you do that to keep creepers from messaging you. Of course, then you have to let down some actual homosexuals, but I imagine that's a lot smaller pool to filter.
>or example their unwillingness to sacrifice cultural homogeniety on the altar of economic growth.

Every time I hear this argument (and it comes up in just about every thread about Japan's economy or culture) I can't help but hear an alt-right dog whistle.

Because, of course, Japan has a long history of incorporating culture from elsewhere - both from their Asian neighbors and the West, but when you talk about "homogeneity" in relation to Japan, people tend to think first about ethnicity and race, since they're ~98% ethnically Japanese.

And I'm not entirely certain can I see the link between "cultural homogeneity" and "economic growth" ... until I realize you're talking about immigration. Which is odd because most immigrants to Japan are Asian, and not likely to disturb their "cultural homogeneity" much, and the tiny, tiny fraction from elsewhere are definitely not likely to do so.

Maybe that's just me and my cooling fan is acting up, though.
Wow. Really fucking awful decision.

Parsing XML is such a hassle? Laughable to think Firefox is so bloated that not rendering a styled DOM for an XML datatype saves them an hour of payroll or trims hardly a megabyte off their binary.

Wouldn't advocate for total DIY. I recommend leveraging third-party libs and infra especially during experimentation or to buy increased development speed.

Google Earth doesn't update often enough?
Those unfortunate children would be robbed or the valuable skill set based on learning how to learn, how to seek knowledge when it’s not just a Google search away. Learning facts may seem useless, but again, it teaches you how to learn, how to study and synthesize new ideas then show you’ve learned them.

I like the glaciology bit though, and they should learn how to use Wikipedia and a library. Just don’t pithe your kids based on some wrongheaded notion of expediency or everyone else doing it.
They do require them to math. So this trader’s losses were other traders’ gains. However, when the mark-to-market losses exceeded the loser’s ability to pay up, then they had to close the position and the exchange had to pay up. Looks like they didn’t actually have the assets to do this last part though, which is the only really bad part of all of this. Traders blow up all the time, but you have no business calling yourself a futures exchange if you make other traders absorb those losses. The typical model for a real exchange is for th exchange itself to maintain capital reserves sufficient to make traders whole in these circumstances. OKEx doesn’t really have any business purporting to be an exchange (and couldn’t, legally, under US law I believe) if it isn’t maintaining these capital reserves. Doesn’t seem unusual for this space though.
That doesn't make any difference. The article claims that animistic beliefs are absent from Greek thought. The OP quotes four examples that very clearly say they are instead embraced by the most prominent Greek philosophers, like, ever.

As to the belief that humans are "special" - well, you only have to look at the philosophy of the cynics, like Diogenes (the most prominent cynic of all). Or, to the legend of Hades and how the dead are shades without personality or memory- including the most important personnages like heroes and kings (in the Odyssey, Ulysses indulges in a bit of necromancy and calls forth Achiles' shade, by offering it blood from a sacrifice. The poet explains that the blood reminds the dead of who they were in the land of the living. When the rite is over, they go back to being person-less shades). Hardly a "humans are special" kind of vibe, there. In Greek mythology, Gods are special. Humans, not so much. Unless they're heroes, which means, invariably, humans descended from the gods.

Absolutely not!

A council, no matter how large, is, relative to the general public as a whole, made up of a small number of individuals.

Such a council would raise so many ethical concerns, such as: Who are these individuals? Why are they on the council? What are their biases? What does their livelihoods ultimately depend on? What conflicts of interest do they have? Among hundreds of other questions.

Only an informed debate among the general public can lead to laws that robustly protect the public at large because vested interests get drowned out by informed dissent from other, equally-qualified, voices who are not affected by such vested interests.

I am a patent lawyer, and the sentiment from the article is on point. Recent case decisions have flipped the script for small companies targeted by patent trolls. The term “Troll” captures many different kinds of patent lawsuits, but most often now the only trolls willing to sue small companies are looking for a quick small payday and will not tolerate any suggestion that they have to put up a real defense of their case on the merits. It can vary, but I have convinced several trolls to drop their case for small clients for just an hour’s worth of work. They know when I make an appearance for a client that they have to put up a fight and will walk away, and if they don’t I have been successful in several cases getting them to pay the lawyer fees incurred by my clients. Happy to answer any questions about the range of responses that may be necessary to defend against this scourge. But I’m happy to report that the trend is favoring the defendant in these scenarios.

I see my comment about China touched a nerve :) there's no need to downvote me, this is just based on my personal observation, which is too long to be typed up, so I merely summarized it here.

I'm not sure if anyone who knows what they're talking thought China was going to fail in 1990. I think most of the world at that time was concentrating on Japan, Russia, and US. China was too small of a player to be noticed by anyone prominent.

In any case, my observation is based on numbers and trends. Ebbs and flows for a country, government and culture. Debts and growth. Demographics, core strengths, and relationships. I stand by my observation: China will most likely fail.
I think another example of this would be using something like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. Switching between tools can be accomplished by clicking an icon, a drop down, or some other GUI element. However, once you get to a certain level of skill, it becomes faster to just use the keyboard shortcuts.

For a novice, it's more forgiving. But for the expert, it's possible to be very efficient.

It's also possible to go too far the other way too. Not to date myself too much, but an old example of too much "expert" levels was back in the DOS days with Word Perfect. Keyboard shortcuts were the only way to do things (like formatting). So you either learned the magic codes (with three extra/meta operations per code) or you kept a cheat sheet on the keyboard itself. That was a learning curve to get to 'power-user' status.

> They're not able to survive 100% alcohol (or close to 100%)

IIRC, there's something of a peak in the effectiveness curve below the close-to 100% [1] point for ethanol, having something to do with too high a concentration not actually penetrating cell membranes fast enough when there isn't enough water in solution already. It's been a while since I read up on it. The papers are out there, for the curious.

That said, I also recall the European standard of 85% (w/w?) being far better as a disinfectant, as supported by the evidence, than the US minimum of 62% w/w (or 70% v/v). Perhaps instead of a ban, merely increasing the minimum percentage to something that doesn't encourage resistance would be enough.

[1] 96.5% or thereabouts is the highest distillation concentration, above which it would be hygroscopic and come down to that if left open to air.
I think there's a difference between initial awkwardness or fear of rejection -- which are totally valid feelings in social interaction, and not just limited to men -- and fear of being accused of harassment for making polite conversation.

I also think that it's easy to get sucked into circle-jerks that promote and exaggerate these fears of being accused of harassment. As long as you're considerate and respectful, no reasonable person would think you're harassing them. There are always unreasonable people, that shouldn't divide us into men vs women, into groups that fear interacting with each other.
> I disagree that this theorem is very deep. Even a CS-grad noob like me can easily understand several proofs of it.

I guess this depends entirely on your definition of "deep", but many extremely important and far-reaching theorems (and corresponding proofs) in computer science and mathematics are not particularly difficult to understand for a CS graduate. Ideally you should understand the proofs of various deep results.

If you already have an undergraduate degree in computer science, you will likely understand results like the CAP theorem or Noisy-Channel Coding theorem. If you don't already, you can probably get the idea in an hour or two of reading. With a little more effort you can more or less fully understand the proofs of various results in mathematics, like Bolzano-Weierstrass, Bayes, Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, etc. These are all very important results that dramatically changed the research landscape at the time they were discovered. The Pythagorean Theorem and proof (by infinite descent) of the irrationality of non-integral square roots are wildly important, but you should trivially learn those in elementary or middle school.

Basically, it's a little odd to assert a result is not deep simply because you can understand its proof. In fact, good students working through a textbook can often formulate their own proofs of important theorems before they read the author's if the book is structured especially well.
Yup, you never get to \omega that way. Cardinality is a coarser notion than "ordinality". So your example shows that Card(\omega * \omega) = Card(\omega) = \aleph_0, even though \omega * \omega and \omega have different order types.

EDIT: Just wanted to add that an order isomorphism has two requirements:

(1) it needs to be a bijection (so order-isomorphic objects have the same cardinality); and

(2) it needs to preserve all inequalities (so a strict inequality among items in one object turns into a strict inequality in the same direction among the corresponding items in the other object).
At one time I made a friend at work and we got along so well we became a gestalt entity, always referred to as the pair "AnIdiotOnTheNet and OtherGuy", with quite a few people not sure which was which. It wasn't quite Turk and JD, but it was pretty special. Sadly I kinda fucked it up by having a bad bout of some mental health issues, and then since it was a temp job we parted ways and I never saw him again.

What if party A is a small business and party B is a litigious user movement? We can substitute values for A and B all day. At what point can we parallelize the arguments?

The calories per gram you reference is how much energy you get out of substance from literally setting it on fire.

But how much actual energy is available to the human body is very different. And alcohol specifically is very hard for the human body to efficiently turn into eneegy.

In addition alcohol make the mitochondria more inefficient leading to greater energy usage.

Most studies that add alcohol to animals diet find no change in weight.
I couldn't find a date on this article, but the author clearly isn't using the latest (rebased) version of 1pass which still has the animation, but it's very smooth and quick.
Reminds me of a former coworker's Emacs workflow. He organized his work in orgmode. He used emacs for email, jabber, and irc. He would copy paste new tasks between email and orgmode, and he could copy paste the code snippets he was working on to irc if he needed help.

Compared to i3wm on Linux, it takes ages. I can could probably switch workspaces three or more times (using the keyboard) during the time that a single Spaces animation takes to complete.

Also, I am on High Sierra too, and there is at least a half-second lag between when the gesture ends and when the animation is complete. Taken together with the time it takes to initiate the gesture, I'd say we're around 0.75s.
It's quite complete for anything numerical/machine learning/statistical at this point, with almost 2000 packages. This is in addition to the very comprehensive standard library, which includes everything you get in Numpy/Scipy. Of course, outside of numerics, you're pretty much out of luck, which is not the case for Python.

It also has multiple dispatch like Common Lisp, as well as gradual typing. All functions are multimethods, actually. This is an enormous abstraction advantage over Python. It's much easier to do complicated things without pulling your hair out in comparison to Python.

I use it a fair amount in my job as a data scientist. It's also what I reach for if I need to write some custom algorithm myself that needs to be high performance, rather than doing it in C.
That's not wrong in itself, but Feedly doesn't seem to even mention that there exists a pro version, or what it will cost.

Good place to start: https://resistancemap.cddep.org/AntibioticResistance.php

Three out of the six tracked antibiotic have decreasing resistance rates (aminopenicillins, amoxicillin, piperacillin). The last two are front-line antibiotics that have been around for decades. They still work for most infections.

It's not evident from these graphs, but prior predictions were rates were going to drastically increase over the past decade. That hasn't born out.

Not saying this isn't a public health concern, but it's also not antibiotic armageddon.
