Thanks for your helpful reply, but I am still having an issue understanding part of the idea of mapping sets of points.

Suppose that there was an arbitrary rule that points can only exist at integer coordinates, then (0,2] would have 2 elements and (0,1] would have one element. You would not be able to map 1 to one.

Now, suppose that points are allowed to exist at coordinates m*(1/n) where n=2. (EG, 0, .5, 1, 1.5 ...) So now the first set would have 4 elements, and the second would have 2. They would still not map one to one.

Now imagine that you can pick an n arbitrarily large to represent any rational number. I still don't see how you can map the sets one to one.

Is there a reason that you can map them one to one, or is the set theory that we use specifically constructed/designed to afford this property?

And an acetaminophen tablet is a painkiller. While your statement is in fact true, ibuprofen is still a better choice for a fever. The latter is also generally considered a safer alternative, especially in long-term use — even though alternating the two would be ideal.

The author doesn't really state that he did that, but I ran the numbers, and it seems he's doing that indeed. Not sure how he came to the conclusion that 25T fuel is in the 737, as that doesn't seem to be the case. He still didn't consider the engines that would be almost completely gone weightwise, and of course the main point stands -- the 737 is a specific model, with specific tradeoffs, to handle specific cost variables, including engines and fuel. If one is considering a new design, with drastically different variables, different cost of fuel (almost 1/5th or less) different weight distribution, different acceleration capabilities, different aerodynamics (no more bulky engines at the wings), different takeoff strategies, then this kind of "what if I flipped the fuel on the 737 for a battery" approach cannot be used as proof that an idea is "ridiculous". The author comes to the fight extremely underprepared, and honestly if we all reasoned like that we'd still be in caves. I'm all for calling Elon out on things he's more vulnerable on, but the author tips his hand with shoddy work like this.
C's "static" - a Short Token who's meaning is Always Taken In Context.
You're attacking a strawman. That quote makes sense in the context (basically the whole previous paragraph):

The rocket as it performs ascent and then descent undergoes some serious accelerations (way higher than a typical plane), while being built extremely delicately to minimize the mass (much tighter margins than an airliner). The rocket engine undergoes much higher stress than a jet engine. Hence all that stress can cause material fatigue and small malfunctions, while the margin for error on a rocket is extremely small. Hence if e.g. it turns out that the risk of mission failure on these reused boosters increases substantially after every use, all the anticipated savings from reusability may be quickly wiped out by one or two lost missions. And it should be noted, that the cargo that goes into space is often MUCH more expensive than the rocket itself.

The ability to stop the presses for a newspaper critical of the administration on a given day, say before the start of a war or around the time of a coup, is a very useful capability.

Try as I might I can't get gcc to produce warnings for this (invocation: gcc --std=c99 -Wall -Werror -Wpedantic -Wnonnull). I can get clang to do so however.

I didn't expect to get any compiler warnings for code that passes NULL to a [static 1] parameter, so I wasn't surprised when this code compiled silently:

#include <stdio.h>

void end(int foo[static 1]) {
printf("%d\n", *foo);
}

void middle(int *foo) {
end(foo);
}

int main() {
middle(NULL);
return 0;
}

But I was a bit disappointed that the following compiled without warning as well:

#include <stdio.h>

void end(int foo[static 1]) {
printf("%d\n", *foo);
}

int main() {
int *foo = NULL;
end(foo);
return 0;
}

I think the problem comes from the mapping you are choosing. You can construct a map that between (0, 2) and (0, 1) that is onto but not one-to-one. But to say that (0, 2) and (0, 1) have the same size as sets (cardinality) means that there exists a bijective map between the two sets. You just haven’t found out what that mapping is. The mapping you are thinking of is not a bijection so from your perspective you are not seeing the sets as being the same size.

Consider this. The set of non-negative integers is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4,....} and the set of even non-negative integers is {0, 2, 4, 6, ...}. One might think the first set is twice as large as the second set. And under a natural way of looking at it this appears to be true. But consider this mapping:

0 -> 0

1 -> 2(1) = 2

2 -> 2(2) = 4

3 -> 2(3) = 6

.

.

.

Under this map I’ve bijectively mapped the set of all non-negative integers to the set of non-negative even integers. This is how intuition can fail when dealing with infinite sets. Under one way of looking at things one set appears to be larger than the other. But the definition of cardinality (size of the set) deals with whether or not a bijection exists and does not care that other mappings might give the appearance of one set being bigger than another set.

All infinite sets have this property: They can be put in bijecitve correspondance with a proper subset. This can not happen with finite sets.

Here’s a bijection from [0, 1] to [0, 2]. f(x) = 2x.

Here is what Warren Buffet had to say about gold...

“You could take all the gold that’s ever been mined, and it would fill a cube 68 feet in each direction. For what that’s worth at current gold prices, you could buy all—not some—of the farmland in the U.S. Plus, you could buy 16 Exxon Mobils, plus have $1 trillion of walking-around money. Or you could have a big cube of metal. Which would you take? Which is going to produce more value?”
I work in the public sector of Denmark, and I’d recommend doing this. The companies who hire actual domain knowledge and listens to it are simply miles ahead on making software that doesn’t suck for the end-users.

It would be better if we allowed departments to build their own software, because our in-house software is honestly the only stuff that truly does the job right, but I don’t see that being prioritised. So having contractors hire a few doctors is probably the best we get.

It is never "free" (almost nothing is). Costs are usually covered through (forced) mutualization (usually through taxes).
I don't think the author is saying the plane has to be like a 737 with the batteries removed; the argument is more like: a 737 with battery replacement is an order of magnitude away from being viable, so the design is going to have to close that gap, and that's a pretty tall order.

It's a fairly lazy argument, but also one that effectively illustrates the challenge.

I like your comment, but I wish you (and other similar commenters) would reveal more details of the secret sauce!

Whenever people on here advocate "going into consulting" they do so with vague advice like: Lay the right foundation! and Play your cards right! and Do your homework! These things sound great but aren't specific or actionable. If I want to quit my job in, say, a year and become a consultant, what specific steps do I need to take? How do these companies "retain" me? How do you know they have "cost pressures" that lead to you consulting? Where do I find out about these "gigs" to string together? Does this activity go through recruiters just like a regular job hunt?

Which contacts help you find these gigs? I don't have that many--what do you do when you've talked to them all? Most of my contacts from previous companies are individual contributor rank-and-file employees and probably are not involved with hiring contractors, plus they work for companies I quit and don't want to work for anymore!

I wish there was more of a HOWTO besides:

1. Nebulously Prepare

2. ???

3. You're a consultant with multiple gigs!

r1,r2,r3 are roots of a+bu+cu^2+u^3,

But I guess if EllipticF is fast to compute, finding the roots can also be done pretty quickly, so yes its probably not that bad.

> Since voice metadata is explicitly mentioned, real voice data must also be stored somewhere.

That's not necessarily true. "voice metadata" could be things like quality settings, latency history, when you join a voice channel, when you leave a voice channel, etc. It may have a lot of metadata about it without actually storing the audio streams.

A phone PBX will have tons of metadata about calls placed through it, but it might not bother recording every call that goes through it.

I'm sorry if it seemed like I was putting words in your mouth. I did directly quote you.

I didn't become a software developer to document every minute action or go to meetings or explain complex concepts to clueless bosses or meet intense deadlines, I became a software developer to program. Yet...

Besides having more realistic expectations about my field due to exhaustive research, which in fact led me to change my mind about becoming a teacher or professor and just focusing on software development, I also trained myself extensively extracurricularly to be prepared for my job.

What motivates all of this is the salary and the control over my life which programming affords me.

Neither of those things are pluses about being a teacher. Their salaries are absolute garbage and get worse every year, and they have little control over how they structure their life. Most of the motivated public school teachers I knew growing up have moved into administrative positions because of this.

What ends up happening is that it's mostly just the inefficient people without foresight who remain in college for 4-6 years to become a teacher. The quality of applicants is directly tied to the quality of life afforded by the position. And in my opinion, public school teaching positions should be some of the highest-paid and highest-qualified jobs in the market, on par with college professors and junior to mid level engineers. At least more on par with what their administrators are already pocketing.

Fever can indeed kill. Raise the body temp a few degrees, no matter the cause, and things start going wrong very quickly. Google hyperthermia.

In fact, i cannot think of any disease that literally kills. Even with the big stuff like cancer or aids, it is always the symptoms that get you. They damage body systems and the decline of those systems (aka symptoms) eventually causes the cardiac arrest or internal bleeds that shut off nutrients to the brain. Those symptoms are just as lethal no matter thier cause. A massive fever that stops normal body chemistry, whether caused by flu or ebola, will kill you just the same.

Seriously guys, consult an accountant, a tax lawyer or just someone who could have at least a clue what you are trying to do. There are reasons to incorporate companies that are not in your place of residence, for example: vat registration and to have a "front-door" in that country for selling to the public, for procurement, for legal reasons (e.g. if you sell products in the EU, you need to have an EU contact address listed on the product) etc.
International taxation is not easy and nobody will explain to you the problems here but there will be for sure problems. If you want to do it right, you usually pay what you saved in registration to the accountant instead. And no, you won't save any tax. Let me be clear, you won't save any tax! If you do, it's either called tax avoidance (punishable in many countries!) or you are an international company that already has a tax accountant/lawyer to structure things properly, has substance in those countries and will for sure not ask questions here.

Different people have different ideas of what an “index fund” means. Personally, I don’t consider it an index fund or a benchmark unless there’s a definition of what the fund tracks ( https://web.stanford.edu/~wfsharpe/art/active/active.htm ). And when there is, and I want to invest in that market, I expect to do better by paying a little money to accept the average return for that market than by paying more to try to get a better-than-average return (because to come out ahead, it has to be better by at least enough to pay for the higher fees). But you’re definitely right that “average return for the market” may not be positive.
> Healthcare is massively overrated.

Working in the medical field as an internal medicine physician, I'd say that focused and good-quality healthcare is vital to prolongation of life, and poorly derived, financially-motivated 'medicine as profit' is massively overrated.
From my Spanish Perspective.

What fraud? Going to the doctor is literally useless unless you're ill.

They will literally send you away home if they find you to be fine. The doctors and nurses and personnel and what have you will also get mad at you for wasting their time unjustifiably (and I've done this myself and oh boy they left an impression on me).

If you mean Government fraud, from the ones planning the system yes, indeed, all documentation about how much a healthcare center "costs", how their location and capacity is decided, and etc... should be open and easily accessible to the public.

Medication is partially subsidized and never given for free at a medical center or hospital unless it's an emergency, older than 65+, disabled, etc...

> What's the utility of "EKG" [sic] …

What’s the Difference Between ECG and EKG?

The fact of the matter is that an ECG and an EKG are the exact same thing. That’s right, the most surprising difference between an ECG and an EKG is that there is no difference at all. Both ECG and EKG stand for electrocardiogram.

So, if an ECG is the same thing as an EKG, then why are there two different abbreviations? It’s actually quite simple—when the word electrocardiogram is translated into the German language, it is spelled Elektro-kardiographie. EKG is just the way some people choose to say ECG based on this translation.
