Annotation-based methods are crippled by the limitations of annotation placement. For instance, you can't "annotate" an expression, which is where you will tend to see boilerplate of the type needed for partial application. (Because partial application is easiest emulated as a lambda which routes to the target function while providing fixed values to parameters.)
Does it matter that the content is encrypted?

Surely the main issue in a non-neutral world is the throttling of traffic from specific sources based on commercial priorities. The sources can be identified by IP regardless of whether the content is encrypted.
It would be a nice gesture, but I still don't believe people will forgive Microsoft.

Microsoft are a different company to the one that tried to damage FLOSS. Those people want an apology from a strong Microsoft, not one they refuse to acknowledge as a top-tier tech company in 2018.

IMO, it's not the attack on FLOSS that people hate. It's the impact on the tech landscape during their time in tech, and no apology will repair that history. All we can hope for is that Microsoft continue to fight the good fight, and focus on creating good products and services. As I said before, criticism keeps a company honest, and hopefully that hate will balance out the praise and make Microsoft into an honest voice in tech.
And yet when Arturo Alvarez-Buylla and his team of researchers actually searched for physical evidence of young neurons in adult brains, they found... nothing: https://www.nature.com/articles/nature25975

The studies which came before may be based on nonprimate animal models in which adult neurogenesis does occur. But the best evidence we have to date suggests that adult humans do not grow new neurons.
That beneficial side effect could also be had with a better project, though.

I'd say the opposite. Mutually recursive functions are notoriously hard to get right and debug, and many languages have stack limits. Often it's better to maintain the stack manually.

I think it's actually pretty hard to tell much from the membrane itself, my understanding is that most of the process is based in the membrane preferring the smaller water-only molecules and allowing the waste run off to carry away anything else. So they shouldn't really be catching much in the element.

They fail either from the chlorine degrading the membrane film which will start allowing larger dissolved solids through (your TDS will increase) or by having the pores scale and plug over time which will slowly decrease the output.

> religion, unlike science, doesn't offer us any certainty.

Not sure how to put this politely, but it's the other way around. Religion offers certainty (though a false one). It tells you exactly why we're here, why we suffer, and exactly what we have to do to alleviate the suffering.

It is science that destroys that false certainty and replaces it with tentative truths and the obligation to find meaning.

This is definitely true, but there are lots of things we can't rule out -- including that intelligence is a magical property bestowed upon us by a benevolent deity. When you are faced with this kind of situation, the scientific approach is to choose the model that requires less new stuff. In other words, let's choose a model that doesn't require esoteric physics until we're sure that esoteric physics are absolutely required. Or let's choose a model that doesn't include a deity until a deity is absolutely required. In this way we are constantly working with the simplest models and only adding complexity when we find that the simpler models don't work. It may not be correct in the end, but science is more about building useful models than it is about finding the "truth". Indeed, the absolute truth is probably something that we can never really know.

This is really important. I caught Malaria in Ghana, but the symptoms did not develop until I was in the UK. The hospital wanted to identify the type of Malaria I had before treating me, which I think was a mistake. In Ghana they take a blood sample and then immediately start treatment. The treatment can always be altered if the strand is different from the best course of action.

But the issue was they had a hard time identifying the type because I did not have one type of Malaria but two. In a hospital in the temperate world they do not have the cases to gather the skills to be able to quickly identify the strand.

"What researchers have learned so far is that writing systems vary extensively not only in their visual appearance (e.g., alphabetic vs. logographic and visual complexity) but also in many other factors such as orthographic depth and morphological complexity (the latter not discussed in the current article). Prevalence rates of dyslexia may vary somewhat across writing systems, perhaps influenced by these differences. It is important to note, however, that prevalence rate is highly sensitive to the criteria used to define dyslexia; some research groups have found essentially identical prevalence rates regardless of orthographic depth, depending on the criteria used. We have also learned that, despite these more ‘superficial’ differences, there seems to be a fundamental universal principle that dictates reading networks in different writing systems that is consistent with the goal of reading (i.e., to convey meaning). Finally, in terms of dyslexia, there appears to be a core dysfunction present across writing systems that reflects the phonological deficit hypothesis and may be driven by more subtle sensory processing deficits (Goswami, 2015). This would also make sense given the high heritability estimates of the disorder (Grigorenko, 2004)."

I agree with many of your points. Religion was a useful tool in the development of mankind. And we should replace it with something more useful, that doesn't suffer religions intrinsic downsides. Something that isn't built on dogmatic rules that cannot be adjusted to fit changing circumstances.

Again, I do see religion helping lots of people. But we could do better, and the only reason we don't are political. Try setting up a pastor-like support system for everyone. You will see capitalists complain, since they either don't want to pay for it or want to sell that service themselves. And you will see religious people complain, since will remove a justification for the existence of that organization they belief in.

Why does the church have to teach mental and physical health and wisdom? Isn't teaching something we have schools for? Unless, of cause, you want this teaching to be done exclusively by or according to your church.

You complain about alienated corporate slaves. I see little difference to peasants and serfs in the middle ages. And they certainly didn't have a lack of religion.

You mention inclusion. You forget the cleansing of those with no or the wrong belief, that happened throughout time and still today. In the name of god, of cause.

Again, i understand religion can offer many benefits and does so in an easy to consume package. But why does it have to be something based on a two thousand year book that pretends to be perfect in every way by definition.
Thanks. I've found a lot of category explanations that use Haskell types in their explanation, and then a lot of Haskell types that use the jargon in their definition. It's hard to find a foothold from which to build understanding. This is perfect.

After reading the book "A Piece of the Sun - The Quest for Fusion Energy", I came to understand just how hairy these reactors have grown. A simple idea has needed to have layer upon layer of complexity added to it, up until the point that I'm not sure it would be viable even if it did work in the lab.

Not only will each commercial reactor, should anybody attempt one, be extremely complex and therefore non-robust, but there's still the issue of neutron contamination, making the whole thing brittle and ready for the nuclear waste disposal team to rip out most of it in a few years time.

Ask HN: Many people will spend thousands on bootcamps. Why not so much tutors?
I'd like to see more of these kinds of learning resources being offered and promoted, that are off the beaten path of learn the basics of popular tech stacks. Bootcamps are still growing in popularity and in a local Slack channel for technical jobs, a lot of newcomers present themselves as bootcamp graduates.

But there must be lots of people who are willing to be paid to tutor or mentor people in other ways, and in other tech domains besides the popular web dev and mobile dev routes. Suppose you want to learn C/C++, RTOS for embedded systems, computer vision, or distributed computing. There's not much of a limit here. A tutoring program that leverages your current skills with an experienced professional to help you get from point A to point B could be more rewarding than just reading material, whether one-on-one or tutoring a small group.

Where can someone start filtering for good resources to find tutors or specialized learning experiences for other specific knowledge? Do some colleges offer tutor sessions for non-enrolled people? What's keeping such a service from being highly publicized or promoted?
People tend to ignore the law of diminishing returns, and I think in this context it's largely due to a fear of depression resulting from having the bandwidth to reflect on reality.

The extreme majority of people might be "mediocre" if you average out all of their skills, talents, and characteristics, but that's not meaningful. If you are an excellent cobbler and I am an excellent carpenter, then you can make me some excellent shoes and I can make you some excellent cabinetry and we are both better off, even though if we average together both of our skills in both trades, we are both mediocre. The world we live in today is a little more complicated than that, but most people can be at least better than mediocre in at least one small part of life if they work hard at it.
"_All_ the studies are measuring the same tendency : the temperature is rising"

There could be lots of reasons for that. Anyway, the temperatures were not always rising, clear temperatures rise was observed in 1930-40s and in 1980-90s. Cooling in 1960-1970s. And yes, prediction has to be precise. If a model predicts rise of 3K in 100years, and you measure 1.3K - your model is wrong. It's even more wrong if you don't take into account any of the natural cycles, even if prediction is accidentally correct.

> This is definitely true, but there are lots of things we can't rule out -- including that intelligence is a magical property bestowed upon us by a benevolent deity. When you are faced with this kind of situation, the scientific approach is to choose the model that requires less new stuff.

Yeah, but we don't even have models to choose from. We can choose the model with the least new stuff when we have competing models; for now, we have models for bits and pieces of the brain/mind, but no wholistic model.

So, what we can really say about the brain or mind as a whole is that it's an open research question and we don't know what it will take to explain it.

We can absolutely say we have no particular reason to think esoteric physics are needed to explain the brain. What we can't say is that we have a firm basis for confidence that they aren't needed.

By "all state laws", do you mean "all federal laws"? AFAIK, the FCC is a federal institution and has never upheld state laws. And, AFAIK, several states have re-introduced versions of net neutrality in various ways, specifically to route around the issues of the FCC abandoning any form of enforcement on such rules.
Yea. I may not like the idea of it but from a strictly constitutional view it seems correct. ISP's are private entities after all. We already have major social media platforms, hosting providers, domain registrars, payment processors, credit card companies, even DDoS protection companies all "exercising editorial control" of content, so why not ISP's?

The argument of "ISP's choice is very limited in many areas, so it's different" seems rather weak to me. You can just use a cell carrier, or satellite, or even dial-up. If that sounds like "you can just start your own social media platform, your own website, your own payment processor, your own registrar, or just be accessible through an IP address, or tor etc." it should. All those options suck. Yet the people who are most militant about Net Neutrality are usually totally okay with every other private entity doing whatever they want (as long as it ends up aligning with their ideology).

I'm not here to suggest any solution to all this, just to say I don't think there's anything untoward about a judge ruling in line with the first amendment of the Constitution. Ideally this whole mess will lead us towards more competition and decentralization on the Internet, but given the way it has developed in the past 20 years, I'm not very hopeful.

First the term Natural Philosophy is uses to separate it into it's on thing rather than just calling it Philosophy. The Greeks had a very different idea for what we translate as Philosophy than we do. Algebra is Math, but Math is not just Algebra. Further, the term Natural Philosophy had a different scope than Science much closer to what we would call "natural science" than how it's used in modern context. So while closely related calling Natural Philosophy Science is no more accurate than calling Chemistry Mathematics they simply refer to different things.

Anyway, it's really not my definition for Science, if you want to quote wikipedia: "Science (from Latin scientia, meaning "knowledge")[1] is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe.[2][a]" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science) Notice the last of specific implementation details, that's what I am referring to.

"The earliest roots of science can be traced to Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia in around 3500 to 3000 BCE" well before natural philosophy. The Greeks are given a lot of credit, but they the ideas are much older than them.

You are trying to conflate the words I've written here with antisemitism, by claiming they are both opinions. But this is reducto ad absurdum, both disingenuous and wrong. There is a clear difference between the two, an ocean of difference, which human beings are perfectly equipped to understand. It is possible to say "we don't tolerate antisemitism" and "we do tolerate pontificating about more just social contracts" concurrently. There is nothing impossible, or even difficult, about this.

That's comparable to the 2-3% in suburban Illinois (where I live now) and Ohio (where my family is from) and both of those states also have state income tax on top of that.

Haha, great ending to the story:

"A year later, Walter and I were having lunch in the Mildenhall Officer’s club, and overheard an officer talking to some cadets about an SR-71 fly-past that he had seen one day. Of course, by now the story included kids falling off the tower and screaming as the heat of the jet singed their eyebrows. Noticing our HABU patches, as we stood there with lunch trays in our hands, he asked us to verify to the cadets that such a thing had occurred. Walt just shook his head and said, “It was probably just a routine low approach; they’re pretty impressive in that plane.”"

As I understand it, that is not the "whole point" of cda 230.

Perhaps I misunderstand cda 230.
