If you're in an in-network hospital it's not your job to interview every doctor that sees you and determine if they're in or out of network. Take it up with the hospital billing when you get the bill is what I was told by hospital admin people and tell them it's not my problem.
You're right, and mathematicians and computer scientists aren't most people. We are being pedantic / precise here. If someone wants to caution that people need to be really careful about estimates because there are some assumptions involved, then it's fair to hold them to their own standard, isn't it? If typos are uniform, then the suggestion to read random pages doesn't help. And whether or not people interpret it one way most of the time, if you interpret "random" like a programmer, you've introduced a small amount of bias, right?
True, they are not a news organisation in the common sense, they are a leaks organisation which comes pretty close however.

> especially when they released campaign emails during the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election

As a leaks organisation this is what their job is about: leaking information, emails this time.

Was Wikileaks biased on what they released? Probably, but to my knowledge they did not release anything false - this would be similar to prosecuting say the guardian people for publishing the Snowden leaks, after all some would consider them "left wing" and "biased". I believe that especially America that was founded on the principle of freedom should take the principle of free speech more seriously.
He's not necessarily saying he know's a solution, just that such a problem should be considered. Satellites do collide - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_satellite_collision

The idea of satellite collisions and space junk is an actual concern https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kessler_syndrome .

Sure a few washing machines in space isn't a big concern. Now imagine a few collide, hundreds of bits and bolts flying around earth, at unknown trajetories, at thousands of miles per hour.
>I'll be surprised that anyone with a family and younger kids and aware of where this leads would be in favor or even be OK with this

All these questions his attorneys can try to answer during the trial. That he was /is a Russian asset, I think we pretty much know. Maybe he needed a bear hug in light of everyone behind against him...or maybe Russia had dirt on the country he wanted to hurt?

Hi, I'm the lead investor in this round for Standard Cognition. From what we can tell, Amazon has actually over-invested in sensor technology that results in expensive reconfiguration of shelves and stores. It works for Amazon since they are building stores from scratch, but existing retail partners don't want to put that kind of capital into reconfiguration.

This is where a camera-only approach really shines, which is why the team has gotten so much adoption from retailers. This tech is literally the way incumbents can fight back against Amazon's encroachment.
There are large companies run ethically. eg patagonia, follow your heart etc

It all comes back to the leader and culture they set...
You're not really describing Shareware (though in practice it may not have been a whole lot different). Shareware was software distributed under a try-before-you-buy license but the license actually required you to pay if you continued to use the software beyond a certain time period.

Did this make a difference for most users? No. But, when I wrote shareware, I usually got one or two 4 figure site licenses per year from companies for my product. It was just a sideline but the difference between pure donationware and "you're really legally required to pay for this" did make a difference.

That said, today I'd probably just do it as open source donationware though the money wasn't completely trivial for me at the time.

Yeah, fair. But are there any claims otherwise?

The OP's claim was that people are saying he is free to leave. I'm saying that is technically true, but I agree it isn't in reality.

But I dont't think any sensible commentator has ever made the claim the OP is referring to.

This is the scenario where you know nothing else other than you waited 10 minutes

To make the math work, I think you need to make several other assumptions. Don't you also have to know that that ten minutes you sampled are representative? That the events (if they did occur) are independent? It seems odd that you'd in a situation where you can rely on specific assumptions like these while also believing that buses and aliens are equally likely to appear.
Mildly interesting trivia: there's a Chinese idiom stating "compare 3 shops for a good deal" (貨比三家不吃虧), I guess that makes sense from a statistical standpoint. :)

Hi, lead investor in this round here. Instacart is actually also an Initialized portfolio company and I funded Apoorva while I was a partner at Y Combinator. We think these technologies are both very complementary — either way, retailers need options to fight against Amazon. They can't hire world-class engineers but Instacart and Standard Cognition sure can.

I spent a total of $150 with my provider, this includes the sleep study and a follow up, $0 for the machine itself(Airsense 10).

If anyone else is in the same boat, please check with your provider first. It may not be that expensive and in some cases there are even discounts – not because they care about you, but because treating the conditions that sleep apnea causes is so much more expensive.
Why is this even a story? Most computer science student don't want to work period. They don't want to work for any company.

Most CS grads would like to win the lottery and spend their days pursuing their own interests, contribute to open source or starting their own companies. I know that was my dream and my classmates' dream.

But when graduation comes and the offers come, they'll work for any company that'll pay well.

There are journalist students who don't want to work for the nytimes. Is that a news story?

I'm failing to see what is newsworthy about this story. Where is the line between creating news and reporting on it?

The nytimes could manufacture the exact same story about itself or microsoft or google or any company in the US. Go to any campus and you'll find someone who doesn't want to work for microsoft or google or apple or [insert company name here].
I don't really know about that, there are many accounts such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vf5ZkGKk9SM that claim otherwise, though I do not know how reliable these are.
I think it's target audience. If you're in late 20's early 30's and single it hints at a vibrant social life that could lead to a relationship. It's probably easier to move your single self than transition to a long distance relationship or move your whole family. The cash incentive too of $10k goes a lot further in your 20's.

"And then you're sitting at home at your desk and have the option to only say yes. This is not what any reasonable person would consider a fair deal." -- from 60 Minutes.

My experiences are LA, Portland, Tampa, Key west, Phoenix, Tempe, Tuscon and a lot of other places where I was homeless.

I didn't get into fights, I didn't argue with the police when they told us to move or leave an area, I was respectful and decent. While people right next to us caused problems and got arrested.

So, I have seen plenty of police action, and rarely was it undeserved.

I think people who don't want to take responsibility for their actions are blind to the effects they have on others and simply can't see how their actions are scary for police to deal with and feel entitled to be belligerent.
Or charge for support
I don't mean "most efficient" or anything to that end, which is a moral judgement I'm not inclined to consider, but that effectively most practitioners (you know, at home, in small business et al) are women. The phrasing was a bit bad.

I think his case will be closely studied for years.

And it is how propaganda works. There is no coordination between the 5 or 6 or however many media outlets but it seems as if there is turn almost based on how quickly he went from a martir to Russian puppet in just a year or less.

Same thing kind of happened to Greenwald though to a lesser degree.

Not everyone can find the right balance and that is the issue. This is the reason why we need to strike the right balance when forming a team. Having too many "rockstars" can actually sound good on paper alone.

In my experience the people who actually focus on shipping are the real rockstars.
As a soon-to-be college grad, I can attest to this. I applied and interviewed at a number of big tech companies, but explicitly avoided Facebook because of ethical concerns.

On the other hand, I know of only a few classmates whom I believe would not consider them as an employer.
I'm okay with that world view. My issue was with the concept of deserving. No one deserves to be happy. You can earn happiness. There are a myriad of ways to make yourself happy or content with your situation

If we start saying you deserve happiness, then anything that makes you unhappy is an attack against your very being. It's a human rights violation. People are going to feel entitled to being blissful all the time. That is a danger road.
Ear damage may occur. Death though? I'm skeptical.
Rich or poor, money is money and if you feel like your getting screwed there is very little reason to feel obligated to pay when due or ever.
Would surprised to know if they are paying half of what Facebook is paying to new grad, which can reach 200k.

Well, i think saying Facebook has a negative effect on the resume is definitely a stretch. It is probably more proper to say that working at Facebook no longer bears the showing off value it once did, though that is largely true for ALL tech companies as well. The general public just grows more skeptic and indifferent towards tech industry overall.

The consensus is that Greenwald isn't a Russian agent. He's just stupid. His reporting has consistently had large and obvious errors at least since he was writing for Common Dreams.
I'm not exactly a Luddite myself (my 4.19 Linux kernel is compiling right now) but I'm old enough to see a few trends come and go (47). I'm CREST accredited, MD with two partners and 20 employees.

I do have a FB account (named as per my name here) and don't get me wrong, it is quite handy for keeping in touch and having ads blasted at me in return. OK, I use Privacy Badger, uBlock O and a few other tricks to attempt to tame the tsunami of crap. As you say, it is very much: "mildly cool use of tech." but it is also insidious and corrosive when you look at the effect it has.

I am not advocating throwing out all tech (I'm fitting up Home Assistant at home right now, carefully) but I am pointing out that what is seen as normal today is not what was seen as normal a few years ago.
I fully expect you to publically release all your emails. Even if you don’t do anything illegally. Truth is power, after all even if nothing illegal was done.
The author is a blowhard who likes dazzling people with (admittedly pretty) pictures. Meanwhile Metamath [0], Coq [1], Isabelle [2], and others are taking on the practical challenges in formal methods by proving the "top 100" challenge list of theorems [3]. Comparing the closed nature of Wolfram to the portable abstractness of Metamath, it would be remarkable if folks would prefer the former for doing serious foundational work.

Check out the Metamath book [4] if you want a more sincere and philosophically-engaging treatment of this sort of foundational material.

Why UWP? Who buys from Windows Store?

Not my parents. They started computers with buying software in boxes, but in the modern age almost all of their digital purchases are done on smartphones. Neither of them have any idea what Windows Store is. One of them uses Steam for games.

Not most power users I know, most of which bawk at UWP apps and the concept of a walled garden store on their desktop computer. Many power users are more likely to use Steam to buy apps despite it being gaming focused.

Anecdotally I see basically no group that would prefer Windows Store except out of ignorance or necessity. Buying on Windows Store means you don't get the Mac version if one exists. Admittedly, the same caveat applies in reverse to the more successful Mac App Store, but it's still something people have to consider.

Microsoft has been pushing Windows Store pretty hard for a long time. They came to my University back when I was in college, a bit after the Windows 8 launch. They talked numbers but only in terms of the whole Windows install base and not even Windows 8 adoption. Definitely no numbers on Windows Store.

To this day, I don't know if we've seen good stats on how much apps that were built and sold exclusively on Windows Store have fared. No doubt games have sold well - Microsoft can use its Xbox brand to deliver exclusives to Windows Store and not Steam - but I sincerely and absolutely doubt that success will translate to app developers.
Another option, specifically for tech companies, is to create free products and use support contracts as a revenue generator. Companies that follow this model include Red Hat and Elastic. They've both been tremendously successful while adding a lot of good to the world. The open source community keeps them honest.

Could I take results from a pulse ox to a random urgent care clinic doctor and get an RX for an APAP?

That I don't know. My guess is, probably not.

I do know that, when I had my in-clinic sleep study, the technician showed me how my blood oxygen levels were rising and falling. Rhythmically, corresponding to every breath I took.

If you see the oxygen desaturation for yourself, maybe that's what will convince you to at least do an in-home study.

I will never do another in-clinic study again. I fucking hated it, tons of straps and wires all over. I had a lot of trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep. So, as Bill Clinton might say: "I feel your pain". And they did give me a sleeping pill in the middle of the night to calm me down (another issue of yours). But that was over 10 years ago, I don't think that in-home studies were popular at that time.
> It has small holes that are supposed to allow fresh air to mix in even if the machine is not providing any. But they are small.

Oh for god's sake.

You are not going to die if the machine switches off, even with a full face mask. It is not hermetically sealed.

If you don't use a full face mask, but instead a nasal mask or pillows, this is what you'll do: you'll open your mouth and start breathing that way. Simple.
Or they hope to license this and have it built into every service by default.
> I think it's funny that you mention $50/hr for delivering papers as if we should be aghast at the mere thought.

$50/hr for delivering papers would most likely cause the prompt and total collapse of the local economy. If you think otherwise, why stop at merely $50/hour? I'm only aghast that the proposed cure is actually much worse than the disease!

> But as a society, at some point it would be prudent to look around and see whether the way people are living is sustainable, or if, say, the inopportune removal of a welfare or familial wealth Jenga brick would cause the entire tower to collapse into, like, tent cities or whatever.

I agree wholeheartedly, but I'd guess we probably disagree on the remedy. I'd defer to the market which would of course require a free market to exist in the first place for things like housing.
Google Photos, with all your Android pics, already "automatically analyzes photos, identifying ... People, Places, and Things.

A meta comment on the HN community: People constantly decry HN's "negativity" to Show HN posts or other tech related news, but I think when really cool projects (like this one) show up, people respond overwhelmingly positively. Maybe it's a good thing that HN as a community has high standards.
So you think if we take all these smaller insurance companies and combine them into one large entity that will fix our overpricing problems?

It seems like we will have even less recourse and there will be even less accountability when regulatory capture happens and prices are driven up even higher because all the lobbying money can be focused like a laser now.

I also think the current system is totally fucked, but once the price concerns are made a tragedy of the commons through taxes the medical industry will drive prices even higher.

Without attacking the corruption in the system I just don't think sweeping it under the rug and throwing it on the deficit is a good long term plan.
Poor millionaires.
You don't even need to understand ASCII. You can hard code an array of all the letters in the alphabet, search for a given letter and replace it with the letter 13 places ahead in the array. If you were really lazy and didn't want to worry about the logic for rolling over when going past Z, you could even rewrite the first 13 letters at the end.
The problem with posting "proof" here is that it's always unclear where to start.

Do you accept that Guccifer 2.0 was a Russian agent? If not, then it's going to be a long post.

If you do, then Guccifer 2.0 himself claimed he gave the leaks to Wikileaks[1]. Wikileaks tweeted the same information[2].

Which part is in question here exactly?

Amazon is known to pay less and have a brutal work life balance.

Microsoft is known for paying less and being too big and too political to the point where making an impact is really difficult.

Mind you, this is on average: there are stellar teams at both of those companies that work on incredible stuff, and I would consider an honor and privilege to be in that situation, if the opportunity was given to me. Likewise, there are many teams in Google maintaining internal legacy applications with no challenges to solve, and you would have to pay me 7 figures to force me to work on those.

The house of Saud just crafted their latest excuse about the hit squad being "rogue agents" and they're going to execute some faithful servants to prove their point. That is plenty good enough for Trump to dismiss the issue. American's don't care about mass Iraqi civilian deaths. Journalists are the enemy. A single "fake news" writer won't matter.
Google does support U2F on Firefox. Just not for registering the key.
Have you watched the documentary "citizen four" about snowden? The way that they went about these releases are worlds apart and each man has his own clear agenda. Snowdens behavior set a good precedent for future leaking. For example, he was careful to do diligence to make sure no one agents would be harmed. This is important because much of the legal case against this sort of action claims (wrongly) that leaking is somehow treasonous no matter what because it endangers IC field agents.

All of this said, broadly, the world Assange wants to build is bad and the world Snowden wants to build is good. This matters and is part of why I call Assange a bad actor: it's not the act of releasing sensitive data its what he intended to do with it. (And to be clear, i'm no fan of Clinton.)
