"...it's only fair that those people have to pay more, after all they also cost the insurance more."

Insurance is supposed to spread risk. If your logic were taken to its limit, everyone would pay in the same amount that they were expected to cost - with an added amount to line the pockets of the insurance companies. Then why bother with insurance at all?

The big question is "what impact does it have on the bottom line"?

If the react native app is sufficient for it's intended audience, then learning dart/flutter, or 2 native platforms is academic at best, as it's unlikely to sway revenues.

Maybe certain use cases can never be handled in react native, but for most, it's sufficient to not impact revenues.

At the end of the day, the user doesn't care about your programming stack, only results, and react native has been deployed at scale by large corps to demonstrate viability for most, if not all cases

How would you make an algorithm to predict something unknown?

This is essentially the field of sequential decision making, which encompasses everything from reinforcement learning to multi-armed bandits. [1]

As an example, let’s pretend we have the task of predicting labels of a size 2 alphabet {0, 1}. These labels are come to us via a stream; so in contrast to classical ML, we are not given access to the full “dataset” beforehand to train our predictor. But instead, each round, a label is given to us; and in between each round, we can only predict the next label with the set of labels previously revealed.

Note that we have no model of how the labels are generated — this is what we mean by “predict something unknown”. In general, we can assume two cases: it’s either adversarial or predictable (shaky definitions, I know).

In an adversarial case, we assume the labels are generated such that we incur a heavy loss. Say, if we predict 0, the adversary outputs 1; vice versa. It turns out with deterministic strategies and a certain adversarial model, we can always incur loss linear to the amount of rounds; this goes a bit into game theory. To counter this, we can employ a random strategy where we flip a fair coin to decide what to predict. This is somewhat analogous to you, in the classic tie breaking game, of choosing {rock, paper, scissors} with 1/3 probability.

But what if the labels weren’t generated adversarially? Remember, we don’t have a model of how the labels were generated. Say, the sequence was 000000... predicting with a fair coin would be a bad strategy then; and instead it’d be better to simply predict 0. A better strategy here would be something like follow-the-leader, where you predict the most frequent label seen so far.

But recall, we don’t know how the labels are generated — it could very well alternate between periods of predictability and unpredictability.

What we need is a mixed strategy which does well in both cases. One algorithm that turns out to do this is called multiplication weights, which assigns “weights” to each label and increases or decreases them proportionally each round depending on what the label is.

There’s a whole lot of other ground that can be covered but I’d recommend reading a book instead of reading it here. One resource is “Prediction, Learning, and Games”—but feel free to find another book since this one assumes a background in probability.

The practical applications of it are explained in the article:

Doctors often base patient care plans upon the chemistry and molecular components of a patient’s urine. But further research could allow doctors to take advantage of the changing composition of kidney stones themselves, boosting specific ingredients to dissolve the stones completely, without excruciating passage or invasive procedures.

“Now that we know a process by which they’re growing, the question is, how can we flip the switch the other way, and break the stones down?” said Dr. Matlaga, the surgeon. “If you can intervene at a certain time during these events, you might be able to manipulate the process by which the stones are growing.”
That would mean the only people who could buy tickets are that who can afford to tie up hundreds of dollars for months.

The report specifically calls out Kraken as extremely suspicious. This is the excerpt.

"The OAG could not review the practices and procedures of non-participating platforms (Binance, Gate.io, Huobi, and Kraken) concerning manipulative or abusive trading. However, the Kraken platform’s public response is alarming. In announcing the company’s decision not to participate in the Initiative, Kraken declared that market manipulation “doesn’t matter to most crypto traders,” even while admitting that “scams are rampant” in the industry."

Old rule: "Measure twice. Saw once."

Another old rule: "Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see and still will believe twice too much."

I learned a similar lesson in math: Intuitive descriptions and conceptions and pictures and examples are from really good up to crucial, but they are not sufficient. Instead, make strong efforts to stay really close to carefully stated theorems and proofs.

Sure, there are books, lectures, etc. on applied math that try to make the subject easier by omitting the proofs and often even the carefully stated theorems. On further inspection and more learning, what I found was that the with the easier treatments, in practice omitting the theorems and proofs also omitted crucial discipline, care, and checking and brought in too many errors.

Sometimes have to work with such "easy" sources and work too fast, but in that case try not to bet more than can afford to lose -- in the sense of the OP, don't take a chance of going to jail.

About 5 years ago I introduced multiple developers for DVCS, as we migrated away from TFS. I was used to Git, so we used it for a while because we might as well support the tool with the most traction. But after I had to unravel the state of a repository to save work for the 100th time, I assembled a small team to evaluate it. Our conclusion was clear, Git was not working. We rolled out Mercurial for a few projects and it just clicked for the guys, they even began using advanced workflows without central repositories.

So while it might be obvious for you why Git became most popular, I believe that today, it continues to be that way mostly because of GitHub.

Dealbreaker for us - we'd rather retrain staff on hg->git (and lose the amazing TortoiseHg).
> Russia wants important enemies to die slow

I know this is a common oversimplification when talking about governments, but please, could we at last use "Kremlin" instead? Russia is a large country with many people just like us, who want to live, love and have a wonderful time. Sure, at times the public opinion is stirred when some atrocities are reported and you can hear some vocal groups online, but Russians are not different from any other nation in this respect.

Their leaders, however, are a different story. You could say Russians have had bad luck with respect to their rulers for centuries. When you look back at what Lenin, Stalin and others did, Putin starts to look like a savior. But they all have a certain attitude and ambitions. So could we please stop saying "Russia" when we don't mean Russian people at all, and common Russians are actually victims of bad policy of their rulers.
>insurers should distinguish between controllable and non-controllable factors, and they should not be permitted to discriminate on the basis of non-controllable factors. For instance, if someone chooses to ride a motorcycle instead of drive a car, then there should be a premium for that policy. However, if someone is born with a genome that predisposes them to dying much sooner from a specific disease, they should be charged no more than anyone else, because you can't control your genetics.

Risk-taking behavior, such as choosing to ride a motorcycle, can also be influenced by genetics[1]. How can insurers distinguish 'free will' from genetic disposition?

I think mistreatment of causality might still be another explanation for the result.

In particular, in the iterative process, that authors suggested to use to get w=ok, z=ok, each iteration must be connected to the previous in some QM encodable way, eg as { |continue>, |halt> }, that must be set in the last step, and measured in the first, therefore combining all participants into a single entangled QM system.

It is not immediately obvious, that this addition would not affect the outcome of experiment, and hence should at very least be included in the paper.

Have you seen the Flutter Show[0]? It's actually a pretty good watch, though I'm a little skeptical/suspicious of how hard the marketing team of Flutter is pushing things, it reeks of when subpar/fledgling projects try to advertise/market themselves to greatness. Then again, the way Flutter works is pretty novel for the space so it's clearly not a marketing-only play.

Upfront I want to say that I fully recognize that disregarding dart is a childish thing to do, I mean to try building a not-bad flutter app as early as this weekend (I got my fill of nativescript-vue recently and liked it but want to see what else is out there), also I've watched and read enough about flutter that it's about time that I actually built something with it. Also, I'm not a fan of Java's semantics and ergonomics (though it's better than a large group of other languages), but I do always hear nice things about Kotlin. I've programmed in OOP but don't really want to any more -- structs + methods + interfaces/typeclasses/traits (i.e. golang, haskell and rust) are like 100% of what I want out of "OOP" approaches now, don't want the rest that comes with it in java land.

On that note, what do you think about Reactive programming (relatively recently announced as BLoCs in flutter)? I'm not sure I actually like trying to have primary data processing paradigm for applications, but I know it's a very popular approach -- I find an Observable gets you 99% to where you want to be, and observables are almost (if not completely) equivalent to streams but no one wants to do that, day 2 mobile app data management seems to almost always be "let's add streams".

Sort of. Next expects to find a file structure of scripts in the /pages directory. On the initial load of say www.nextsite.com/about/location, Next will by default try to render the file /pages/about/location.js or /location/index.js.

You can add an asynchronous function called .getInitialProps, which should return some props that are required for the page. On the initial load, Next will first run through getInitialProps, then render the actual component with those props. From then on, assuming you're using 'next/link' for routing, everything should work like a single page app. All of the pages except for the initial one are rendered on the client.
