I get what you're saying but a country is sovreign from othets and corporations don't get to decide what's acceptable in a country.

It comes down to this imo: will the product be used in ways that are morally wrong? Or will it be used in ways which are legally wrong or socially unacceptable?

I agree with you that a company should not sell their products to enable a moral wrong in any country.

However, free speech and oppression of democracy is not a moral wrong. "Free speech" in the west means the Government shouldn't censor speech,this is a relativly new concept almost unheard of in history. It certainly isn't a human right. If a legitimate government of a country censors speech they're merely excercising their authority unless their laws restrict them from doing so as in the west. Whatever your view may be, a corporation does not get to decide social norms and what should be legal in any country.
that's very insightful, thank you :)

>I (and many others I presume) also value the kind of insight people do get with psychedelics (and several other means, including philosophy). Even if it doesn't arrive in a readily communicable form.

I hear what you're saying, but I don't understand why you're calling it insight. You can spend an hour talking to a AI chatbot about philosophy and value the experience. That doesn't mean the bot has some special insight.

This is especially true if you're talking about things which can't be communicated effectively. If you're finding patterns in word salad, markov chained sentences, or the rantings of doped up philosophers, the insight still needs to be demonstrated independently.

Classification with Quantum Neural Networks on Near Term Processors
No, that’s not better. What’s better is if you can change this:

function big(a,b,c)

Into this:

nameableIntermediateState = smaller(a, b)
finishUp(c, nameableIntermediateState

This is better because there were things you were doing with A and B that had nothing to do with C.

That’s the ideal final state, where your big function doesn’t even know about C. However, refactoring often has to happen in phases, and so a pass through like the kind you wrote is sometimes a good intermediate step.

It’s about teasing apart names into smaller islands that the names never escape. If you are passing names between islands, there’s no value.

Introduction to React Hooks
FWIW I recently read "The Dream Machine" by Mitchell Waldorf, and it has interesting details that bear on the "1945 Stored Program" entry in your list.

Basically it said that von Neumann was reporting the work of others in "draft", and he didn't include the people who actually did the work as authors because it was a draft. In other words, it was prematurely circulated without proper attribution.

Ironically, I don't remember their names. It may have been Eckert and Mauchly as you list on your page. If anyone wants to know more, e-mail me (address in profile) I will look it up.

There was also a patent dispute between von Neumann and the other party, IIRC, and that is why there is no patent.

So basically the "von Neumann machine" is probably not a great name. You don't call it that in your page, which is good, but that's how I always thought of the stored program! I believe I was taught that in computer architecture class in college.

----

EDIT: Yes now that I googled, the way the Dream Machine portrayed it, Eckert and Mauchly had a stronger claim to inventing the stored program than is portrayed on your page.

You did say von Neumann "described" the stored program rather than invented it, and that's the issue that is discussed at some length in the book. Some snippets here:

Well, I never thought I would change my position on VR but here we are. If this works it will make VR viable.

It’s so disappointing to remember the hype in 2012 and then look at VR in 2018 only to see an anemic library of titles, little adoption, and not much improvement of the actual headsets. It’s pathetic.

I’ve heard of some headsets in the pipes that are supposed to actually be good. Extremely high resolution and full field of view coverage are absolutely required. There is no technological limit that is stopping a headset like that from existing, and yet it doesn’t. Pimax maybe. Am I missing one?

If you control motion sickness and have a headset like I described above, then you have a minimum viable system. Going beyond that, we need non-discreet light fields and perfect body motion capturing.
Don’t forget: keeping track of the dividends and cost bases of a hundred or thousand stocks will heavily impact your accounting/bookkeeping bill each year.

So far Bitcoin investor behavior has been remarkably consistent.

https://plot.ly/~unchained/37/bitcoin-utxo-age-distribution/...

There's a lot to dissect in this chart, so take some time with it. Some observations:

* Most of the market is traded during bull runs. Each bull run sees a large segment of year+ holders take profits. Between bubbles, price-discovery is driven by short-term trading.

* Bear markets see remarkably little activity from holders. 'Hold waves' form between bubble cycles that clearly demonstrate that the majority of coins are held by 'firm hands' that bought in bull runs.

* Right now, a large segment of people that bought in the 2013 bull are starting to mature into the 5+ year bracket. A significant amount of coins are still being held in this way. It's remarkable to see it in real time. Neither the crash to $150 or the run to $20k motivated a large selloff.

* It took about 2 years after the 2017 bull for <6month bracket to fall to ~25%. It only took one year this time.

* Age distribution is becoming more bimodal: stubborn holders and large healthy active market.

* The current price crash is rather anomalous. An incredible 4% of coins in existence moved out of 3+ year bands very suddenly. This is among the 3 or 4 largest shifts, the others occurring in much different contexts. Given how sudden it was, and how specific the age band, I have my guess as to whether this is a cause or effect of the drop.

The main takeaway from this is that Bitcoin investors are remarkably willing to hold. "Hodl" is more than a meme, and the current crop seems about the same as previous ones in this regard, with a growing 'hold wave'.

I also think the last 'pop' was a lot worse due to the looming existential scaling threat. This has been addressed in an unoptimal way, but one that is remarkably true to Bitcoin and overall encouraging.

> I would guess (based on anecdotal experience though) that a child's diet is the number one cause/preventative of obesity. It sets the culinary stage that they will dance on for the rest of their life.

While this is only anecdotal data, this is not true for me. I was a skinny kid because I never got soda, I never got ice cream truck, I never got pizza or pasta, and if I spent more than an hour on the computer (note: I'm a programmer now) my mom would yell at me to go outside and bike, or drag me to the local beach or town pool for the day.

Well, all that forcing me to eat "proper" instead of teaching me to eat "proper" built up quite a bit of resentment apparently, in my freshman year I gained 20 lbs and kept going (with swings up and down) and I have not seen 185 lbs since then.

I'm currently 6'3" and ~260lb @ 46 years old. Last week I worked out 4 times (all Orange Theory, which is no joke). I'm about to work out again in a few minutes. I'm trying to watch what I eat, considering going back to calorie tracking but IT IS SUCH A PAIN. The tracking is more of a pain than the eating less, lol. (I'm also ADHD, which might explain why.)

> People who don't trust each other don't engage in trade.

They do all the time. It's just that the level of distrust is factored into the price. For example, you'll pay more money to buy a used car from a dealer than from a random person, and you'll pay more to buy from a reputable dealer. And it's why there are such things as cashier's checks, wire transfers, and escrow services.

> Deception is not normal.

It is normal, and it is factored into the price as "risk".

> It's why "capitalism" as practiced in countries where there are no stable legal systems tends to have lower levels of growth.

Of course. An unstable legal system means high risk, high risk means adverse prices, and as such lower levels of growth.

WebRTC was created to replace the need for apps that handle calling, without web push notifications (like every other WebRTC supporting browser has) there is no way for inbound calls to cause the phone to receive a notification unless Safari is open and has the webpage pulled up.

WRT VP8/VP9, bandwidth is much more of a concern than you make it out to be. Network bandwidth on mobile devices is inconsistent, unstable, and often relatively low (say hello to congested towers, or fringe 700Mhz coverage where 500Kbps is all you get :P), thus the best compression possible ensures that video quality and usability is top notch.

By restricting video to H.264, your stuck with a legacy codec that has relatively poor compression rates compared to the other standardized codecs. Is it good for interop with a 2005 era deskphone? Sure, but not much else.

I'm pretty surprised China didn't hand Google the dataset itself, or provide an IsThoughtCrime API. Perhaps they're actively looking for what sites Baidu proactively censors, rather than simply what gets blocked at the filter level. There's no way Google could operate without the PRC's blessing, and since they are, the PRC has no reason not to help them out with the firewall. But they can't exactly ask Baidu for a cup of sugar..

Maybe, but this was true even when Clojure was younger still. The language changes are overwhelmingly additive; Hickey places great stock in not breaking existing code.
this isnt really right.

Lets assume the product that B makes has a value which allows a 50% gross margin

A loans $100K cash to B at 10% markup (total value of system= 100K)

B buys raw material from A for 100K cash (total value of system now 200K as a magic 100K of raw materials were just added)

B creates product X and Y, now worth 200K (system is now at 300K)

A buys 60K of product X with cash (doesnt change value of system)

A cannot buy 60K of product Y with cash, though the total value of the system has increased.

There isnt enough cash in the system to settle all debts, but the total value of the system has increased. Cash would need to be printed to cover debts.

>No, it's not ENTIRELY wrong.

Your link does not support your belief that it is in some way partially correct. The catholic church is not a pro-life group. They pre-date the very idea of a pro-life group by many centuries. The largest pro-life group that random person lists does not have a position on birth control. So this does not support the notion that pro-life equals anti-birth control. But again, even if pro-life did equal anti-birth control that would not support the belief that pro-life people are pro-life because they hate women.

In case you missed in the post you are replying to: "And it would not make the liberal idea of the conservative view correct even if it were true. Christians who oppose birth control do so because they value the traditions of their culture, not because they hate women." Even if every single person who opposes abortion also opposed birth control, that would not make the belief that those people oppose abortion because they hate women correct. Opposing birth control is not hating women any more than opposing abortion is. Consider the opposite incorrect belief: "liberals hate babies, that's why they are pro-abortion". Now would you think "liberals also support birth control, so that proves it is because they hate babies" is good support for that belief? Neither supporting abortion nor supporting birth control can be equated to hating babies, just as neither opposing abortion nor opposing birth control can be equated to hating women.

>Rational: based on or in accordance with reason or logic

Yes? The four humors theory of health and medicine was based on reason and logic. It was also wrong. You can have a rational belief based on incomplete or incorrect data.

"clients would balk at…"

Your goal is to find clients who will value your work, your time, your reputation, and the value you bring to their business. I have no qualms quoting a high hourly rate because I see it as a way to weed out bad clients. If that proves challenging from a sales standpoint, perhaps raise your rate and then come up with some BS reason why you can offer them a discount (which brings you back to the rate you actually want). They think they're getting a deal, you're still happy with your rate, everybody wins. :)

We do, but it’s a broader problem than simply “minorities incur racism”. Racism manifests in all directions and while it’s valid to have support for minorities, it is nonetheless divisive that our society only takes racism seriously in one direction. All humans face turmoil and struggle because of societal implications, racism simply being one of many. It’s not that the NAACP is wrong or pointless to exist, the problem is that as a society we should try to alleviate the suffering and injustice for all humans rather than grouping people by the millions and thinking that that macroscopic approach is going to solve our problems.
