Wow, you are overthinking it.

That was one of my first CDs and like most pop songs the lyrics were pretty meaningless and unanalyzed despite everyone being able to sing it.

The extent in which I heard anyone ever actually scrutinize the lyrics (until now) was when my friends and I thought it was hilarious to punch each other during the chorus.

Makes me cringe a bit to see someone try to expand it into some statement about American culture.
> You could view R[x] as a subring of R(x). At that point, once you have tranformed the problem into one contained entirely within R[x], evaluation at a point becomes a well defined function.

Indeed, this is exactly the process that I meant to describe by:

> One must 'promote' the equality in `R(x)` to one in `R[x]` by clearing denominators, and only then plug in `x = 1`.

> I suppose you could view evaluation as a non total function on R(x)XR (or rather, a function on the annoying to write domain where it is defined), but I have never seen anyone do that explicitly.

I agree that it would be strange, for many reasons. Mathematicians in the main tend to avoid the language of partial functions. An individual evaluation function, say at `x = c`, is naturally viewed as a function on the localisation R[x]_{(x - c)}; but, if one wants to view the evaluation as (informally) a "two-place" function, then I would say that it lives naturally on R[x] \times R.

I am sure it refers to drug patent evergreening, which is a real and prevalent phenomenon.
A crime is only what legislature declares is a crime...

One would consider why it is the law for a mechanic to give you a written estimate for work to your vehicle, and be required to call you before exceeding by a notional amount- yet, a hospital can legally withhold all cost information from you and yet you’re responsible for the bill in full after the service.
This is a criticism that just feels fabricated. Worse, it is all assertion, but no evidence.

By and large, what you are doing is going to dictate large parts of your tool chain. And, by and large, most people have not built tool chains in lisp. I would caution against reading any technical meaning into either of those facts.
Thanks for spending time to let me know because I don't think I would have noticed it otherwise! I can't see it on retina but I can on my non retina display. We'll have to make the CSS rule more specific. As to why it's there I believe Firefox 57 or around that version had an issue with the sliding animation on the top of the page causing images to tear or not render at all when they scrolled in. This bug must have been solved recently because disabling backface-visibility on the image doesn't cause the same tearing.

I got $10k on top of what I was asking for. I undervalued myself quite seriously as I was moving countries and didn't really have a good grasp on what market salaries actually were for my experience and skills.

It may seem smart in the short run to hire someone for under their market rate, but when they eventually realise that they're massively underpaid, they're going to jump ship.
I wouldn't feel quite right about charging the job seekers as typically a lot of them are unemployed and thus money can be tight. The incentive for a company here would be cheaper labour so its already a saving for them by having a large pool of potential junior or entry level candidates to advertise to.

Thank you so much for taking the time to give your feedback, I will take it into consideration and see how things work out as time goes on for the site :)

Where you able to find some suitable nursing jobs on the site? If not I will see what I can do to make sure those results are coming onto the site for you and your fellow nurses looking for those jobs.
From an engineering perspective, you're right, lisp really does give you too much power.

From a linguistic perspective, isn't this the same as accents and dialects developing in isolated groups of people? We don't fault Australians for having unique vocabulary and accent, it's just a different way of speaking. Maybe the beauty of lisp is that each person gets to solve problems in the particular way they feel is most obvious, even if it's not universally accepted as being so.
"In the Civil War" is one thing. 70 years later is another.

There's no way to tell what would have happened if a hypothetical rump CSA territory still existed circa 1934.

But we can look at Vietnam for comparison. The US normalized relations after 20 years, not >70.

I love that last one. In my head you've run right through the checklist, popping out a new reason not to offer up a number first, before hitting the last one and just coming right out with it.
See what happened with employeees of Enron and their 401ks.
These scooters are around $400, unless you're using them for a commute its quite a few rides to recoup the purchase cost. Then there's the ability to ride it one way and just leave it without worrying about having it stolen or damaged and losing your $400 investment.
Even if you pay cash, a dealer may require a credit check, however you have no obligation to provide any financial details. I think they just want to make sure your credit is good enough for some proxy that your check is good. I've also heard it's for identity purposes. Also, this all might vary by state laws, too...
If you are starting a company, I would hope that you at least know what your requirements are and you could sit down with the project managers to hash out acceptance criteria and deliverables.
Not all that surprising that he leaves after the company was bought by a scamcoin.
It wasn't necessarily six consecutive rounds with "these sorts of problems", it was six consecutive rounds of _the same problem_ just worded differently. And the actual questions were less the terrible part as the fact that interviews work both ways. An interview is a chance for _me_ to learn about _you_ just as much as it is for _you_ to learn about _me_. A very good software engineer in a city with very high demand for software engineers has a lot of possibilities. CrunchyRoll is not the only person asking engineers to spend their entire day in the office. You can't treat an interview as an obstacle course that the candidate has to overcome.

Crunchyroll showed zero interest in learning anything about me other than whether or not I can search a tree. They showed zero interest in letting me learn anything about the company other than I don't want to work there. They showed zero ability to collaborate and coordinate prior to the interview. They showed no interest in me personally as a potential team member. They showed zero ability to recognize that I gave up an entire day (and likely lied to my boss about why I was missing work that day) to come into their office and... waste my time? Yeah, not great.

Conversely, I've been involved with dozens of interviews at other companies that ask algorithmic questions that were pleasant, interesting, and an actual two-way street. There were plenty of companies whose interviewers seemed to actually know my name, and who spent time trying to convince me that I _should_ work there.

IMO, if you bring candidates on-site and you're only asking them algorithmic questions, your recruitment funnel has failed. You shouldn't bring anyone into your office unless you're pretty sure you're going to hire them. That means determining whether or not they're competent _before_ they come in. The on-site should be a validation of what you already know (e.g., verify they actually did the coding challenge you sent them and that they're the same person from the phone call(s)), a confirmation that their temperament and personality are compatible, and then selling them on joining the company.

To be clear, I don't have a problem with algorithmic questions, but more than one or two is a waste of time.

And yes, this pattern is sadly common in SF, but common does not make it okay.
5% collateral casualty rate, while regrettable, is very, very low, comparatively speaking. And yes, I was discussing this in context of a purely theoretical invasion of Taiwan. That's the whole point.
Imagine it more like everybody is free to make their own dialect without ever having the need to actually talk that dialect with someone else. And then require that a team all with different dialect start to communicate effectively together.
> Why don't I have a "plug in x=1" (partial) function R(x) -> R?

Precisely for the reason that you say: mathematicians in the main tend to avoid the language of partial functions, so I would say not "there is a partial function R(x) \to R" but "there is a function R[x]_{(x - 1)} \to R" (where R[x]_{(x - 1)} is a localisation).

> And what do you mean by "promote"? An equation in R(x) "is" a (set of) equations in R[x] right?

My language was somewhat fanciful. I don't think that one can say that an equation in R(x) is an equation in R[x], for essentially syntactic reasons; but, just as you said, if the rational function a/b equals the rational function c/d (a/b = c/d in R(x)), then a * d = b * c in R[x]. That's what I meant by 'promoting' the equality (although it is not great, and certainly not technical, language).
i thought including the stock amazon pays well these days, better than microsoft. that's what my friend working there says.
I mentioned Poe's Law because you took for granted everyone who responded to me, responded in earnest. I took their responses as sarcastic. Poe's Law. You think my condolences were insincere, I'm asserting that they were not. Also your name is MindGam3 and you're leaning on the hostility and remote diagnosis pretty hard, so that could be a thing, I'll take for granted that it's not. Also, you find it hard to believe my original comment was satire, implying you believe I intend to bring a seizure machine to YC2019. There's so much Poe's law at play right now that this thread could be used as an example in schools.

I downshifted from jokes to (an attempt at!) sensitivity not to manipulate or gaslight you. Perhaps I was trying to manipulate you into feeling less upset.

I thought I pushed your buttons with my original insensitive and disrespectful comments because of the death of your family member. If that's not the case, I don't know. I've nearly forgotten what the point of all this is.

Perhaps what you consider feigning ignorance, gaslighting, and manipulation stems from me not meeting your hostility with hostility, I understand that the mere suggestion of that is probably like 4th or 5th dimensional gaslighting.

I'm happy to acknowledge some of the things I say are offensive to some people, I'll continue trying to talk to people I offend with respect, until cynicism gets the best of me and the glib persona takes over completely ;)

I'm not willing to censor myself because you want me to though, I think I spelled that out clearly enough without feigning anything.
Really? You think it's bad for a team of people to have a common understanding of what's what (the syntax)? You can't be serious.

I do wish Hume was more included in academic philosophy curriculum. My first encounter with Hume was more based on following a footnote. Hat tip to Philosophize This! podcast for including Hume front and center.
Well, I think that they are, especially as the costs of talent in the coasts gets higher. I am focusing on established tech companies, as for new companies there is a different set of criteria (outlined well by twunde).

For established companies, they can seek out talent pools available in major non coastal cities and build satellite offices.

I am not familiar with all of the central USA, but I am familiar with Denver. Denver is one of the 20 finalists for Amazon hq2, and gusto and slack opened Denver offices. Oracle has a big presence in the Denver area, and Microsoft and Google both have offices in Boulder (close to Denver).
Good list of technical flaws in Bitcoin. I have a comment on one of them:

> Input value were not [directly] covered by signature, making it impossible for offline devices to check how much is spent and paid in fees.

It is true that the input value (amount) being spent is not covered by the signature. This got fixed in Bitcoin SegWit signatures (BIP 143) and in Bitcoin Cash (mandatory).

Even in traditional Bitcoin, it is possible for offline devices to avoid being tricked by incorrect input values. The idea is to feed every input transaction into the device, let the device extract the input values, and let the device compute the transaction hash - instead of the unsafe shortcut of feeding the hash and value.
Why does it offer bleak hope? I really don’t get this parallel, where not feeling for someone equals wanting them to be in pain.

Thats not what I meant. its bleak, because its emotionless. its unempathetic engagement. For me, its stepped over uncanny valley, into a dialogue with somebody who has no emotional engagement with you, only rational response. For some things, thats what you want. Personally, I don't think a relationship we normally couch as an emotional one, ie friend, or best-friend, or life partner, is one which is complete if its devoid of emotion. Preferably reasonably symmetrically, but there is room for variance. One sided? Thats pretty bleak, on the giving side: nothing comes back.
Asia Argento, Who Accused Weinstein, Made Deal with Her Own Accuser
Totally agree. He was one of the few greats that really understood the importance of balancing intellectualism with real life.

Will also add that his skepticism (which I love about him) by nature requires understanding what it is that he is skeptical about. It's very dialectical in nature.
depends on the deal. Copay might be higher in one case but it will discount other cases. So overall it might be higher for this patient for but for everyone in total its cheaper.
I think it is a good idea to keep in mind that the lucrative business opportunity here is convincing potential customers that things are much better than they actually are (at the lowest possible cost), and advertising will be geared to that effect.

However, this issue has been going on for hundreds of years. It is still in the US possible to buy products produced in part by slave labor, forced labor, and/or child labor. I do not belive at all that people will make "real change" even without certification. Just the legal standing aspect is a huge reason to prefer certification even if they are entirely false advertising. If you can find one that helps avoid the worst issues meanwhile, then that is even better and can directly impact someone's life today, while leaving plenty of issues left to demand change. It can also be a way to frequently remind people that there is a problem, and anyone who genuinely belives that certifications will fix the issues may be more likely to demand change once they find out that isn't true. On the flip side, people who believe there is nothing at all they can do to make a difference seem highly unlikely to demand change. So, I still think trying to find the best available certifications is one thing that people can do to potentially have a small immediate positive effect and at least establish a ritual around caring and the possibility of legal challenges to force change. I also think it is worth avoiding the wost of the worst companies and supporting politicians and organizations that are working to make larger changes. If you have alternative suggestions, please share.

Here is one example that I came across recently about someone using legal standing from certification to force small changes:

Ask HN: Giving up on Remote Product Gig search – alternative roles?
I’m an experienced Product Manager with over 10 years of experience in the B2B SaaS marketing technology space. I’ve worked extensively with Sales, marketing and CS to launch successful products and features (created new products that now deliver $6m ARR, managed a $22m ARR product) as well as acting as a technical resource for large enterprise deals. My background is customer success and moved into PM, but I’ve launched API’s and am fairly technical, but no CS degree. After working remotely for several years and managing some team members during that time - I’m looking for my next gig. Head of Product or some such title - but am willing to be an Individual Contributor too.

BUT, despite this experience - Product Management is viewed as a core function in a business - there is clearly some bias against it being a remote position in many companies. I get it. Well, at least I’ve heard that objection often enough.I’d really like to stay located where I am with my family, it’s much more affordable than the bay Area and is about 2.5 hours away. There's no local tech-scene really.

I’m starting to give up on finding a remote product gig and was wondering if anyone had successfully transitioned from PM to another role that they enjoyed doing remotely.

In such case, could someone just deny the service, ask for a referral, then go someplace else and say they don't have insurance?
The team should be working in a shared domain-specific language. The good thing about Lisp is that creating a DSL isn't a painful ordeal.
Think they can bypass this by using concentrated juices as sweeteners?
The simpler explanation is that their data show that people end up liking new things they complained about. It’s not an uncommon story with software customers. I would be surprised if a feature passes their tests by showing more usage of Netflix only to lead to cancellations. I am interested in understanding the potential path to this, though.
I'm not buying it, Google Cloud just moved to node 8 earlier this year as the post says, but now it's node 10. It's just not good tech, it's unnecessary lock-in. Docker on anything is better, this is similar: https://zeit.co/blog/serverless-docker
Nah, I feel the switch needs to be big enough that two hands are required to pull it

«EPYC is compared to a previous generation Xeon»

That's not enough to explain. I highly doubt replacing the 12-core Broadwell Xeon CPUs with a current-generation 12-core Xeon (which would be Skylake) would catch up with the 30-40% performance lead that EPYC displays in their workload.

The Zen microarchitecture of the EPYC is quite impressive and it could just very well be a workload that Zen is particularly good at.

For example the fact EPYC can pack so many cores on a single socket means all the RAM and all its 64MB of last-level cache are "local" to every core (at worst accesses go through the Infinity Fabric.) By comparison, in Intel's case when one of the Xeon cores need to access RAM or cache on the other socket, accesses have to go through the QPI link between the 2 sockets, and it has higher latencies and worse throughput than AMD EPYC's Infinity Fabric.
There was blame from both the Enron and the employees. The employees voluntarily put thier retirement savings in Enron stock - you never put your retirement contributions in the company stock. But the company locking them out and putting thier match in company stock was inexcusable.
wow... this is one of the saddest and beautiful stories that i'll ever read
why don't they talk about stuff like that on schools? history would be a lot more interesting, to discuss about facts like that and just evolve... i'm really new(18) and when i see People talking st to my generation i can't help but keep quiet and accept it is true... i feel like stuff need to change... the world has a lot of students but a tiny amount of learners
I tried that, the autoplay videos still autoplay. :(

Haven't binged anything on Netflix for a while (due to autoplay videos, in part...), so I can't say what it does with the original topic of the link.

Also talked to support, they said it can't be turned off.
they're definetely heroes to me now... you're right!

Đại học New York miễn học phí cho sinh viên Y khoa hiện tại và tương lai
As someone trying to build a brand new team, I am happy to pay people whatever they think they are worth. I wonder if there is a way to do this without offending the engineers I am trying to attract - I mean, if they are not to answer the question how much do you want, how do I pay them what they want? I am not at all worried about over-paying because any engineers that don't meet the performance bar I set won't last long enough for it to matter.
Ostensible English speakers make similar mistakes when writing pop songs.

Consider Justin Timberlake in Rock Your Body. The chorus goes:

“Got time, but I don't mind

Just wanna rock you, girl

I'll have whatever you have

Come on let's give it a whirl”

But the issue is: got time but I don’t mind.

Well, why would you mind if you had the time? It should be “don’t have time but I don’t mind” or else “got time and I don’t mind”

Drives me nuts!
This article used so many words, I still don't know what makes Hume unique or interesting. I wish the author had more time, to make it shorter - or whoever is paying him, the wisdom to not pay per page of text.
