Nothing you said contradicts what I said.Pretty much all airports with commercial service are international.

Note that being international doesn't mean someone sane would fly into the airport international. There are no regular international flights, but is an office for them and if you schedule in advance someone will be there when you arrive internationally. If you don't schedule in advance you might have to wait in the airport for a day for someone to arrive and process you. Even if you schedule in advance expect delays as unlike a hub they don't really have either a system or the experience to process you quickly.

That's exactly what would happen if a newly developed product killed some people. A human assisted rollout is a cautious strategy that allows them to learn in the real world without exposing their massive R&D investment to the fate of Uber's.
Regarding the U.S., the reality is that it's mostly the students (med students, residents and fellows.. you're called Doctor by residency) that are sleep deprived. After that most doctors are on normal to normal-ish cycles. But because residents and fellows are such solid profit earners for hospitals and the hospital owns their life they opt to over-work them and charge you max dollar for their time. Once the doctor is board certified (post residency or fellowship) then the power shifts back towards the doctor and they can get more normal lives.

Exceptions are specializations that are essentially emergency/urgent but even most of them are on rotations like another poster mentioned where they've shifted their own sleep patterns to match their hours.

Since watching my friends become doctors (psychiatrists, uroligists, neurointerventional readiology) and my wife become a surgeon I have started telling friends and family "If your doctor looks under the age of 35 then you should ask them the last time they slept before they start treating you.

tl;dr : hospitals straight up own the futures of their med students/residents/fellows .. so they overwork them while paying them $40-55k year, and when they aren't working they have to study for their exams.

>but you haven't demonstrated why any of it precludes the existence of free will.

Except I don't need to. Compatibilists haven't proven the existence of free will, so the null hypothesis still holds true, at least for now.

Throughout the comments here you seem to continually rely on the fact that professional philosophers strongly agree with the idea of compatabilism, but from my point of view, it doesn't really matter what philosophers think. It's a matter of what the science says.

I don't see any real incompatibilities with moral reasoning between a universe where there is no free will and one where it is compatible with determinism, so saying that compatbilist moral reasoning is predictive of how we generally behave is not an argument for free will.
While I own a TM3 I have little faith in their full self driving solution and did not opt for that. I did take the enhanced auto pilot and recent additions show how much more work it will take.

An example would be that it now shows different vehicle types and even pedestrians near you yet when all surround objects are obviously not moving it still has them moving on the display. It still has issues with certain bridges and apparently it is hard coded disabled around certain bridges to the point there are videos of it not recognizing a merging semi.

with regards to Waymo's solution, I am concerned that it should have something in the driver's seat. I don't care if its a Total Recall "Jiffy Cab" type solution. not so much for the riders but for those who are also sharing the same road be that other vehicles or pedestrians. Something that clearly indicates it is under control.
Sure. Some of that's illegitimate, but some of it definitely isn't. Publishers do valuable things too. For example, writer John Scalzi here answers the question of why he doesn't self-publish:

(See under "Why are you sticking with traditional publishing!")

And I'll note that in addition to the obvious functions of editing, marketing, talent development, and vendor management, they also provide capital. One could say correctly that it's perfectly possible for software to all be sold by single individuals. But most software is produced by companies, quite a lot of whom take up-front investment.

I think it's safe to say Scotland is more remote/rural than most of the regions being discussed.

But, if we consider Blairgowrie (a fairly typical farming town), you could get by without a car if you lived and worked in town. The Tesco isn't in the best location for walking (because it's surrounded by a giant underutilized parking lot). But, the large Co-op in town is walkable. And the small Co-op is walkable for the houses along Coupar Angus Rd.

My parents owned a house on the outskirts of town and I could walk to the Wellmeadow in 10 minutes or so.

There is regular bus service to Perth and Dundee, so you can get into the cities for doctors appointments and suchlike.

But, for a farmer who lives outside town, I agree, a car is going to be a necessity. And for people living in town, a car is nice to have, just not absolutely required.
> If the universe is deterministic, then we are just a bunch of atoms reacting predictably to external forces, making us not very different from rocks.

No. This is very disingenuous. We are a beautifully ordered, continuously changing, unlikely set of atoms with history and the ability to affect / finely order huge amounts of other atoms. We're much better and more interesting than rocks! :)

That's domain-specific learning, not general learning. If you could then take AlphaZero out for coffee to talk about a match and why it made certain choices, I'm fairly certain you'd be less confident that it wouldn't qualify.

Don't worry, Medium on desktop is equally bad. Two persistent banners bottom and top plus a "pardon the interruption" popup. I really wish companies wouldn't use Medium as their blogging platform.
I am not an insider but could the reviewer turn into more of an endorsement? Meaning the paper is published and the endorsers are listed as well, e.g. "Reviewed and endorsed by Jill Jones of Cornell University." Organizations could then have clauses that if you endorsed papers that you didn't review and test that you would lose your job. I know that seems harsh but we need to find a way to get "skin in the game". I don't think having a paid organization would work and I think having something at the government level would be worse.

Saying that "pre-med training" (whatever that means) consists of 120 hour work weeks is not accurate but it's probably just because we're using the wrong words.

Pre-med = college, and aside from the highly scientific work load is no different than any other college experience.

Medical school (no longer called "pre-med" by anyone) is typically 2 years of classes and 2 years of clinical rotations. The rotations are not going to be 120 hours a week but may be 60-80. But unless you go to a teaching hospital and consent to student contact (which may or may not be a requirement of treatment) no med school student is touching you.

Residency is after med school (they're full doctors now) where you train your specialty, and at least in the 4 year program I'm familiar with, their title is intern, resident, resident, senior resident for each of the four years. They have increasingly high levels of responsibility as they progress and by the 4th year they are basically oversight/management of the other residents who assist on complex cases and bring in at attending physician(s) for big stuff. Hours are typically 80+ and I'm sure you could approach 100 for very demanding or emergent specialties but it's certainly not "pre-med training" and 120 is pushing it for sure.

After you graduate residency you move to an attending, fellowship, or research position and the hours drop back down to the 60-70 range and decrease as you gain seniority.

>Why bother discussing it as if it matters, when it's all predetermined?

Because personally, I do find it quite enjoyable.

All my decisions and everything I do being predetermined doesn't change the fact that I will still experience it and can enjoy and want things.

Determinism doesn't make the things that you experience and the things you choose any less real, they happen. Similarly, Nihilism doesn't mean you give into depression because there is no morality and the universe doesn't give a shit about you, quite the opposite, you can do what you enjoy precisely because the universe doesn't give a shit about you, you can do what makes you happy, not what society things ought to make you happy.

In short; because it's enjoyable and the alternative is not, even in the face of determinism.

>Why do people having the argument seem to assume in their lives that free will exists, exhibited by their pursuit of their wants?

Because ultimately the answer doesn't matter and having free will is a comfortable illusion. Humans like being in charge, especially being in charge of themselves. Since science still owes us a definitive answer (although IMO the current state seems to lean in favor of determinism), people choose free will over determinism.

Similarly, people choose to believe that inherent, objective morality exists, that a higher power protects them, etc. It's comforting. Reality is lovecraftian.

I wish there was some "why"

> Static assets must be hosted at locations that are unique and independent of the web application environment(s)

Why? Meaning a different domain or is path enough? What are "static assets" compared to every other file served by a web server? I assume meaning will never ever change, so images are not "static assets"? What if I name them by what they are and commit to changing the name when I change the image?

> Static assets are the files (javascript, css, images) that are generated from a build of a web application codebase. They become immutable when they do not contain anything environment-specific

> Static assets must not contain anything that is environment-specific

So, static assets are only immutable when they don't have anything environment specific. Oh, and static assets always don't have anything environment specific. I'm confused in the wording. Clarification required. So my build generates some environment-specific CSS file and in one paragraph that's a static asset and in another it's not?

Ask HN: What would you do with a GAI you created?
Let's posit that you've developed a system, either alone, or with a small group. You haven't been particularly secret, you haven't maintained strict OPSEC, but you haven't published either.

You find that you can have conversations with your system. You can present it with various media and ask it questions to which it provides plausible answers. It displays no signs of consciousness or particular desire for introspection, although it does have access to its internal state.

You’ve taught it undergraduate math, physics, chemistry, programming. It can write programs and solve text-book problems through an iterative process of conversation. You’re essentially a human-machine pair. Jeff Dean and Sanjay Ghemawat.

So, what do you do now? What happens now?
> Zig doesn't want to be a dumpster for trendy PL concepts. It has been designed to be a safer and friendlier C

Exactly why the project is pointless. It doesn't offer enough beyond C for there to exist any incentive to switch. I would add that affine types are not simply a "trendy PL concept" given that Rust has used them to great effect.

> So its easy to copy, is regularly copied, but none of them made any market-share gains? Maybe it's not so easy to copy?

In Uber's case there are a lot of successful copies of the app based taxi service, some of which have pushed them out of markets completely. e.g. Lyft, DidiChuxing, Grab, Ola, etc...

Plus many local cab companies now have apps that mirror Uber's functionality. In cities that I know well I find those companies are better, quicker and cheaper than Uber, which I now mainly use as a backup or in places that I don't know.
> ...you should be using mock external services and databases to keep things running fast.

I've become skeptical of this advice, of late. If the database is just a dumb object store, then I suppose it's fine. But I've also seen a fair bit of rework resulting from tests not catching a bug that was only reproducible when working against a real database. You then end up needing additional tests to cover that sort of stuff, which takes extra time to develop and maintain.

Between that and the whole "test-induced design damage" thing, there's some amount of test slowness I'll accept in return for reducing the development effort needed to maintain the tests. On the general principle that computers' time is way, way cheaper than humans' time.

As far as keeping tests that rely on stuff like the database running quickly goes, my new preferred plan of attack is configure those components to use RAM disk in the local dev and CI environments.
The school thing is a challenge. If the parents have to be at work 8-5 plus time to drive there, the kids have to be up at the same time so they can be dropped off either at school or a day care setting to be put on a bus later. If the parent has a longer drive to work, the child must get up that much earlier. I don't really know how to solve this problem.
Everyone who is old enough appreciates what Firefox did for the web.

But I'm not convinced that a Chromium monoculture is the same as an IE6/Trident monoculture.

Largely because Chromium is open source. Apple has successfully forked it to Blink when it wasn't meeting their needs. Opera/Brave/Electron have used it as a base for their product.

So I'm left wondering what people expect will happen. Is it that the standards will no longer be relevant because people only care about one implementation?

In some sense, Microsoft decision is basically irrelevant to that because we're already there since web developers were not testing Edge, leading to compatibility challenges for the Edge team.

I was half expecting Valve to expand to mobile stores back when they first released their mobile apps. But no, it never went beyond a companion app and 2-factor authenticator.

None of their other initiatives (Big Picture Mode, Steam Controller, Steam Machine, Steam Link, SteamVR, etc.) ever steered in the general direction of mobile gaming, either. They've been married to PC gaming since their inception over 20 years ago, I guess mobile gaming is just not in their DNA.
I would buy a high yield stock like wells fargo. With 8 mil after taxes, you could buy enough wfc to payout 220K a year in dividends before a paltry 15% tax. You’d likely receive increases every year and as you did, your stock would appreciate.

You might not like the idea of wells fargo or financials, so find some other lesser yielding stock(s). Never sell them and try to reinvest dividends at 50% with your minimal expenses.

A lot of people won’t find this sound advice, and you’d have to do your own homework so when you buy, you understand what you’re buying.

But, treasuries are too conservative, as is John Bogle in general.

Mark these words. In 10 years time we'll still be hearing the same comments about Waymo & their competitors because there still will be certain combinations of passenger, route & conditions that Waymo will refuse to take without a safety driver along.

But since Waymo will handle the vast majority of rides we'll just tune out those comments.

Handling all rides & conditions is a very hard problem and it'll take decades to solve.

But scaling from "a few" to "most" is a much easier problem and one that I have confidence that Waymo will achieve. And "most" can be very useful & profitable.

Unless there was some regulatory, legal, or hospital requirement that she receive a certain standard of care. They may have been fine with her sleeping through the night at home, but if she's in the hospital they need to take care of her.

It would not be an easy sell in a courtroom to explain that while you checked everyone except her every 3 hours, you let her sleep through the night and there was an issue that cost her life.
