Helsinki has some docked-bicycles which cost €20/year if you take journeys of 30 minutes or less. They seem to appear in spring and disappear in autumn, so no cheap bicycles in the winter.

That said there are a _lot_ of people who continue to cycle even in winter (-25'C is coldest I've experienced over the past three years), and the snow/ice doesn't seem to stop them. Though of course fat-tyres, and ice-studs are a given.
Seems like you kind of answered your own question. :)
Resting-state functional MRI (fMRI) based studies are not used to make clinical assessment yet, and the researchers themselves will admit that it is not ready for application. The prediction accuracy in most replicable studies hover around 80-85%. Also, fMRI only tells you part of the story, and multi-modal data fusion is key to get the full picture of what it happening in the brain. Once the accuracy reaches close to 99%, it will eventually find clinical application.
Not just the brain, but the whole body and, even more generally, to phenomena that can be described by physics. Unless you are trying to argue for a non-physical (i.e. magical) soul, the argument is sound.
Thanks for the reference! Very interesting Twitter discussion that sparked. :)
pushdata.io is simpler. You don't need to set up an account, the API is very, very small and simple, and the visualization is also much simpler than using Grafana. It is meant to be as frictionless as possible to get started with.
I was also surprised by the vacuity of the article
In North America, it's unusual to ask for a business person's WhatsApp or Telegram or whatever. These contacts are not often published or shared for work.

It's more common to receive their landline extension or cell phone number.

When establishing a business relationship, saving a few cents by trying to figure out mutual VoIP options isn't worth the friction and lost opportunities.

Sorry to be a pedant, but the grammar and capitalization in this guide do not instill confidence. "How to Design Software Good" <- design well? "How will Your Users Do Their Work?" <- Seriously?
Well a much publicised yearly report commissioned by Drax (UK's largest coal and biomass station) this week from Imperial College and sourced from Nat Grid thought otherwise.

https://www.drax.com/press_release/capacity-renewables-overt...

Who's most up to date or accurate? Given the steady drop of fossil capacity, perhaps electricitymap that seems to be volunteer run simply hasn't caught up yet?

There's over a 5GW difference in amount of installed wind power between that site and the "over 20GW" claimed in the Imperial report. Solar varies by a similar percentage.

There have been other reports on the same lines throughout this year of the dropping off of fossil and rise of renewables, for both generation and capacity. Even with the distraction of fracking and changes to feed in tariffs.

Transcend – The automation system for GDPR data subject requests
No. If a set A is finite, its elements are enumerable, and some property P is decidable, then (\forall x \in A) P(x) \vee ~P(x) is true even intuitionistically.

A list of examples of "anti-classical" axioms:

- All functions are continuous, and all sets automatically carry the "right" topology. This means, for instance, that constructing the Real numbers in the standard ways (Cauchy sequences or Dedekind cuts) also endows them with the desired topology (the Euclidean topology in this case).

- All functions are computable. This axiom is called "Church's thesis". It's nice because it shows that a lot of Computability Theory is similar to classical set theory, but with the edition of Church's thesis, and the absence of LEM.

- Some numbers in a set called the "smooth reals" square to 0... without being zero. This seems to create a universe in which every geometric object is "infinitesimally straight". I haven't fully grasped why this works. It's like the dual numbers, but somehow made all-pervasive.
Who ever came to with this naming?
With the right kind of cross-compiler I believe that C# and shim libraries are a near-ideal way to handle javascript development...

You've got a strongly typed OOP langauge on top that is also pleasantly dynamic and anonymous when it wants to be, available through one of the best IDEs on the market, and it can compile to javascript that is remarkably similar to the original source. You preserve the well-optimized JS runtime for execution, but preserve a primo development experience that eliminates a lot of the pain of larger JS code-bases.

IMO "Typescript" should have just been a compiler variant for C# that was more scripting oriented with associated tooling.
I wrote about that just now: there are rate limits in place to prevent it. You'd have to go to quite a bit of trouble to be able to use the system for any kind of effective spamming, coming from different unique client IPs and only send a few emails from each of them, and not send too many emails to the same domains (e.g. spamming gmail.com would be impossible).
Nah they're not happy, they're just trained to think it's how things have to be.
in JS your number would drop precision, because it doesn't have the 'n' suffix. Because you can't mix and match numeric types, JSON.parse() cannot distinguish between a number, and a bigint.

so take:

"[{x:0,y:1},{x:2, y:3456789....}}]"

What should JSON.parse() do? There's no reason for it to parse any of the values before the final extra precision value as a regular number, so if it parses the large one as a bigint, it would break.

> (This will parse in today's browsers, too, but you'll get an imprecise result, as JavaScript's Number cannot represent that value exactly. Larger numbers result in Infinity.)

Your example of python output is exactly the thing that would cause a problem. Your data will work in all existing browsers - it just loses precision. But in any browser that tries to parse it as a bigint it will result in failures, as now any subsequent arithmetic will fail because you can't (for good reasons) mix and match BigInt with non-BigInt values.

You also can't actually make a decision about whether a value should be parsed into a BigInt, vs a Number.

Basically, take something like 2^54 -- 18014398509481984 -- should this be parsed as a Number, or as a BigInt. It's exactly representable with a double, but it has the same value as 2^54+1 (which is not exactly representable). So should that be parsed as a BigInt or as a Number. Without a suffix (not compatible with existing spec) they cannot be distinguished, and so to retain backwards compatibility must be parsed as a Number.
I know what stabilising is, the fact that I clearly mentioned it should've told you that right?

And I am not trolling anyone, I'd like to know if Nuclear could be as cheap and quick to implement as Solar projects? And also, we remember Chernobyl right? It is now a solar plant!

And Australia is now thinking to setup solar for base power, eventually we will have solar for base power too and it'll still be much cheaper and safer than nuclear!
Pretty much my experience too. I don't think it's ever been worth the time or effort to spend time on writing quality software, the people that smash it out quickly are the ones rewarded.

I'm starting to feel like the whole movement for 'software craftsmanship' is making a lot of developers miserable. It's maybe better for them to realise they are not artisans, they are bricklayers. To focus that creative energy on their own projects rather than getting burnt out fighting their managers over writing 'good software'.
Nuclear comes out pretty well on CO2. I figure it has to be part of the mix as we move away from fossil, even if we eventually just use it to buy 40 years and ultimately move entirely to non-nuclear renewables.
There is no actual difference between those three options.

The only thing that matters is that Whatsapp messenger is cheaper to use than, for example, signal messenger.
Aren't Whatsapp and telegram both tied to your cell phone number though?
This work focuses on the membrane, but I'm more concerned about the feasability to synthesize ribosomes from scratch. Ribosomes are incredibly complex tiny machines.
how hard is it to port an existing mono application to .net core for linux? does .net core run stable on linux ? I am thinking of a particular open source server application written for .net/mono: opensimulator.
But you can't determine (without a suffix) whether a number you encounter is a BigInt or a floating point value that lost precision so doesn't have a decimal point.
This is likely a reference to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-negation_translation
The gamer who spent seven years in his dressing gown
Exactly. We need solar because it is distributed. For nuclear we need a lot of money, and it is dangerous. Coal is horrible. Solar is cheap and much better

It's very possible people are calling relatives or friends whose landline offers a more reliable connection than their internet.

From that:

>Euroclus study
In contrast to the above-mentioned studies, which focus on the Elbmarsch geographical area, the EUROCLUS study attempted to find matches between the 240 leukemia clusters identified in the study.

The evaluation of the study showed that environmental factors such as proximity to nuclear power plants, military airfields or other facilities often causing pollutants do not correlate with the occurrence of leukemia cases, but that demographic factors are the most significant characteristics in which they were studied Clusters match.

Probably because they aren't as corrupt. Do you have a specific example in mind?

Saudi Arabia for all that it is authoritarian isn't corrupt (within it's own country) they are pretty effective at rounding those people up on a regular basis. North Korea is stuck in the 1960's and led by an insane idiot but they execute people for using their top offices for personal gain.
> It would only take mainstream media to change the way it portrays nuclear energy and a couple of years.

The media and government have limited ability to shift public opinion.
When I'm in Japan and want to talk with my insurance company, bank, or airline over on the other side of the world, there's just one way: A phone number. Which is the (main) reason I'm still using Skype. There are other, and sometimes better, alternatives for video/chat/group chats/photos etc. But still nothing that competes with Skype's phone support, although Skype in general has degenerated a lot since the early days.
Pro Forma After a SAFE Round
Our client did a SAFE round using the earlier, pre-money forms of SAFE from YC. I'm now trying to model a pro forma for a Series A financing, but struggling with the calculations. Specifically, under the SAFE, the post-money equity plan increase counts as outstanding for purposes of applying the cap in the SAFE. However, when I try to allot for that feature, I seem to get a circular calculation in excel whether the Series A uses a fixed pre-money or a fixed post-money. Can someone walk me through this or provide a sample pro forma in excel that accounts for converting SAFEs using the cap (not the discount) feature? Thanks.

Certainly it is _true_, since it is decidable and classically true, but I think that the relevant question is can you come up with a proof without actually finding a collision in SHA256? In essence, what I am asking is if there are axioms we can add in an intuitionistic system that we know to be inconsistent (but that we can't prove inconsistent without doing things that we believe are hard cryptograhically), such that the resulting system corresponds to a notion of cryptographic security.
That would be a weird thing to think, because there's a long, long list of languages and platforms which are faster than Node but friendlier than C. Java and C#, two of the most popular languages in corporate development, being very much at the top of it (not necessarily in that order).

Save at least 20% of take-home in a high-yield account. Even if not making that much. Get into the habit. Never touch it (even if it requires drafting legal documents)! The DJIA (ie, stock market) averages 8% YoY above inflation. 50% is even better, though put the excess in another account. Further increase the amount via 401k. Such an approach is the only real approach to (early) retirement.

Think before buying a house. Given the need for a down payment (could be accruing more interest in a high-yield account) and additional hidden costs, it may be a poor investment. As long as returns are more than 2% above inflation (average YoY increase in property value), a high-yield account is likely a better place to park any savings.

Many jobs are a trap. Side hustles. Recurring revenue. Given APY, how long would it take to have enough for retirement if you stopped adding money to an investment account?

Choose friends and significant others well.

Healthcare and childcare costs rise the fastest compared to inflation.
The anti nuclear movement is not the main reason we didn't make progress. Capitalism is. The existing reactors still work, so why retire them even though they already exceeded their designed life span? Why invest billions into research and testing of newer, safer designs when the existing ones are "good enough"? Why try to reduce the amount and hazardousness of the waste when you can unload a lot of the cost and responsibility to politics and the tax payer?

HN has this idealistic image of nuclear power where everything is handled by passionate responsible scientists, when in practice those plants are run by corporations trying to cut costs wherever possible. Better and more modern designs wouldn't change anything about that.

It depends on how you define epigenetics.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epigenetics

> Epigenetics most often denotes changes that affect gene activity and expression ...

> The standard definition of epigenetics requires these alterations to be heritable,[3][4] either in the progeny of cells or of organisms.

The most important factors in life are most likely not determined by genes.

If you have the time, watch Biology of Belief - by Bruce Lipton (full documentary). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjj0xVM4x1I

Genes are just passive blueprints for proteins.

It is your social and psychological and external and internal bio-chemical "environment" that determines what genes are expressed.

Seriously?

That might be true for certain values of "media", but not otherwise.
Fucking bullshit.

Even the phrasing grates at me. Killing a bunch of innocent people in another country is just a "risk" to some moron with a drone. If all of a sudden that moron was piloting a drone IN THE US and blew up a church/school on accident, I guarantee you wouldn't be so comfortable abstracting away lives as "risk".

By the way, if we count all the innocent people killed by the US as "mistakes", it is certain that number would be >10x the people who died to Islamic terrorists on 9/11... so isn't the US military as much of a terrorist?

Its a sick strain of sociopathic paternalism by which you can abstract away peoples lives as long as they aren't your own countrymen.
It depends so much on what you're doing. I've been in situations where junior or mid level devs spend a ridiculous amount of time on details that add almost no business value even in the long term. The best developers from the employer pov understand, depending on the project, which level is good enough.

Disclosure: small-ish company (~100 employees) in France

You know, I kind of went through the same questioning: at my current company we have an employee that has his niche/historical role on one of the key infrastructure of our product.

The guys works from his home and whatever hours, commits 300+ lines per commit (90% of which is unrelated to the commit name, just commenting things or uncommenting others). The code is a spagetti of if else if else, it has monstruous "client specific" code (like: if the current client is this guy, then do that, otherwise for all other clients do this).

There's even a load of "if the program runs in test, answer what the test expects, otherwise in prod send something else".

Every time I look at the commit tree (a balance of wanting to have fun and wanting to see what is going on), I'm in horror. The guy rewrote the java.lang.string, the java.lang.date, and some other base classe of the language to incorporate his own version of the Date handling.

Fun fact, at one point his date parsing code "wasn't happy with october"... why? because October contains the letter 'T', and he botched his ISO date parsing (format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss) by checking the presense of the letter T..

I have many many stories of him commiting some bad code, only to spend 12h in a row trying frantically to correct the bug by adding ifs and elses.

The last time I looked at his code, he was rewriting a huffman compression algorithm by himself (NIH syndrome) to compress his on disk data. Complete with loads of code to handle per-bit operations that he wrote b y himself instead of relying on a battle-proof library.

Management-wise, they accept his behavior because this guy, working from his own home, often can work at scandalous hours and be on the bridge when he pushes a botched version to production at 2AM. At the time of this comment, his last 4 commits on master are at the following time: 08:57PM, 10:40PM, 12:11PM, 01:02AM

I know I'm venting hard, but this guy is probably be the best paid engineer of the company, he is a huge liability IMO, and is present at all-hands meeting maybe once a month. So yeah, why bother coding great code, making sure that your tests and CI are green, when some other guy with a bit more history in the company can get away with doing shitty work and having poor life balance, as long as he shows "commitment" when he botches his software releases.

This is really some life-long questioning of mine: should I care about things or should I focus on politics and disregard others. Aren't those on top of the pyramid the more "sharky" people that climbed the ladder not by pure skill but by showing the appropriate (bad) behavior when needed and correctly compartimentalized their own questions about ethics and got away ?
If it's identical to the notes printed at the mint, you're not being cheated in any way when you accept it; you're getting exactly what's being represented and exactly what you expect. Again, that's not counterfeit. A $100 bill that is identical in all relevant respects to all other $100 bills is just a $100 bill.

People are more worried about taking money that isn't identical to money that came from the mint. By definition, if it's identical to minted money, there is no way to tell that it isn't minted money.
