Don't. You can. But you can also run full speed into the side of a building.

One will get the lesson faster than the other... and it isn't the one where you spend 6 to 12 months lying to yourself and everyone around you about how you are figuring it out before realizing that you actually aren't a super genius and you actually can't do everything by yourself and you NEED other people.

Why because of what I tell literally every person that asks me about doing this now... At the end of the day even if you were a super genius at everything it takes to make a business be successful... you will run out of time in the day to do everything.

You HAVE to be able to bring other awesome people on to help you or you will burn out and fail.

If its not painfully obvious by now I am speaking from experience.

I tried I failed. That doesn't mean that you will but I just can't recommend anyone try to do this kind of thing by themselves.

I tell people now I feel like the first true test of your business is convincing other people to help your work on it... if you can't convince even 1 other person to help you... do you really even have anything?

There is less crapware, but still a fair bit of google/play crapware/spyware you may not want and can't delete. Stuff like google now, google news, google docs, hangouts, google photos, play books/music/games. At least that's the case with other stock android phones.
>We can not obtain them to feed them as input, our real-world machines can not process them if we could

Suppose we are only working with rational multiples of Pi. Then we can ONLY have finite calculations of irrational numbers and it's impossible to have a finite calculation of a rational number (except for multiplication by 0).

>Representing rationals isn't affected by the paper's findings, because they have the same cardinality as the naturals.

The Natural numbers are still infinite which presents its own inherent difficulty. It's not as though countability lends itself better to programming.

welcome to discuss
A technical solution would be tantamount to a miracle. History, including the history you reference suggests another possibility; we’ll do unthinkable things, that become very thinkable indeed as awareness of just how much trouble we’re in spreads. Less people, however that’s obtained, is the easiest (as in requiring no new thinking or tech) solution, and killing or sterilizing large numbers of people is old hat for us as a species.

If it becomes clear that only finding a rapid means of reducing the population, then it will be discussed, slowly at first, and then gain steam. However we decide to go about it, with whatever rationalizations and intentions, the result will be extreme violence and social instability. If we want to avoid this as a scenario, waiting for tech to save us is the worst possible action to take. The disappointment and panic that will inevitably set in when people realize no salvation is coming will set the stage for genocide (whether by war, starvation, or denying reproductive rights).

b) Yes I also think it's very interesting. Initially before coming to these suspicions, I was pissed off about having to dissapoint my sister next time I see her, and the money that was lost buying the SIM card etc, ... but the longer I thought about it and noticed all the inconsistencies in what had happened, it's actually a nice puzzle/gift to receive! Turns out the journey really is the reward after all

c) I have also thought about possible mistakes, but really there is little that can go wrong with a strain gauge! And even if the strain gauge somehow broke, there would have been a long run of letters suddenly appearing for redirection, surely this would be noticed and the letters reweighted... And even if it is incorrectly marked with "insufficient postage" both the sorting which is supposed to redirect it to the return address, as the eventual post man who did not ring failed to see the return address!

> Collation represents a string as an expression (usually also a string) that is trivially comparable. For instance, supposed I wanted an English-friendly way to compare band names. I might map all codepoints that look like A or E to "A", then K, S and C to C, etc., discarding any accents and maybe throwing out leading junk like "The" or "A".

So how does collation algorithmic instability break an application?

Edit: What I mean is-- what are a set of reasonable assumptions a dev would make in the application layer that would be good practice on the one hand, yet also be wholly dependent on collation algorithm stability to keep from breaking?

If he's claiming The Use of Knowledge in Society (1942) isn't about economics, then you have a very narrow view of economics. I mention it only because this essay was such a major contribution.
This reminds me of the book Stumbling on Happiness by Daniel Gilbert. There's a section were he discusses how we misremember how stressful and frustrating family vacations can be, and instead remember them as being more enjoyable due to some expectation that they should be.

In On Photography (I believe), Susan Sontag talks about how it has been a quintessentially American thing to ensure everyone was smiling in family snapshots. I wonder if cultures or families that tend to smile in photos end up taking more vacations because they misremember them as being better than they were.
Eh the new consoles use x86 pc parts. The xbone even runs a windows kernel. It would be less emulation and more just figuring out the supporting software.

Yep. I have a Pixel 2, and it's pretty much one headphone jack away from being a perfect phone.

We also often make calculations with finite subsets of rational numbers. We don't work with all of the rational numbers.

The same can be said for rational numbers. It really matters that we can be arbitrarily precise when we talk about .333333... (one third), 1.41421... (square root of 2) or 3.14159... (pi) because we can be as exact as our calculations demand.

Absolutely not. Thinking that you might have to learn functional programming to get a decent job is a clear indicator that you are in a Hacker News/Silicon Valley bubble.

The world will run on object oriented and imperative programming for the foreseeable future. Functional programming is more or less a novelty professionally, although a highly visible one in certain circles.

Grey text
I've been reading this site for a while now. I notice in most discussions that a large percentage of commenters have their text greyed out. From watching, it appears that this happens either when a bunch of people downvote them or when a privileged user does something to their post.

Which ever the cause I think this is a policy that is harmful to deep and meaningful discussion. There's no doubt that this sort of "public muting" will have the affect of reinforcing group think. Does it seem healthy to do this to opposing views? Shouldn't we all desire to have our beliefs challenged by alternate viewpoints once in a while?

I see grey text in every thread, about every subject, for what appears to be any reason at all. Every day I see polite, reasoned opinions, about things that are far from "settled matters", even about such things as esoteric as Javascript code architecture, muted for saying something against the grain.

This is not a positive thing.

I ask that you please cease this absurd practice. If a post's content is inappropriate or detracts from a discussion, please remove it, but please stop this group think enforcing policy.

There are several states with no private bail including Oregon and Massachusetts somehow I doubt that offenders in those states are worse off.

In a country where judges are elected a multi billion dollar has a lot of power in determining how bail is set by the courts.

If you think that judges that get donations from bondsmen don’t take that into account when setting bail you are very naive.

This is the exact same problem as private prisons the justice system should not be monetized for profit.

Who said that? If beef is part of your healthy diet though, you shouldn't assume you can just swap out a normal burger for an impossible burger.

Last year, I finished The Great Transformation by Karl Polyani, published in 1944 (the same year Hayek published The Road to Serfdom), Judea Pearl's The Book of Why and Mastering Metrics by Angrist and Pischke.

The methodology of Austrian economics seems completely unscientific, I believe a part of praxeology is disregarding empirical evidence(?). Reminds me of something like Ayn Rand's egoism. It just seems to me you can't persuasively argue a philosophical theory without empirical justification

I have a more favorable view towards Polyani's methodology, who largely draws on historical sources. The historical approach seems at least some what grounded compared to the pure theory used in much of economics

Economic theory and statistics can't answer questions like "How much of an effect can we expect if we were to raise minimum wage by one dollar an hour".

A randomized control trial is the gold standard, and the way forward seems to be more experiments like the RAND Health Insurance Experience and the Oregon Health Insurance Experiment. Even these results and their policy implications are subject to debate, so how could pure theory even get close?

However, randomized experiments in the social sciences often aren't feasible for cost or ethical reasons. So econometrics has developed tools to work on natural experiments, or even observational data, like Differences-in-Differences, Instrumental Variables, Regression Discontinuity designs.

Even a brief skim of methodological considerations in economics reveals how much uncertainty there is. I am only a fan of economics (only high school and college microeconomics) so I'm likely wrong
Wow, talk about perseverance! Mad props to you for sticking with it through all that, and finally finding a solution. Sometimes "sheer force of will" and a relentless drive to not quit, are the only things that will get the job done.

> If he's claiming

He's not.

To take your example, Section 3.1 critiques The Use of Knowledge in Society via a critique of Human Action (which was published by Mises nearly a decade after 1942). Many of the observations in Section 3 (and 3.1 especially) are directly relevant to The Use of Knowledge in Society.
No, GP means (in the second line) that because nature (and particle colliders) perform so many "experiments", even very rare outcomes will be spotted eventually.

It's a statistical statement about many particles (or field-values in a sufficiently large spacetime(-region)-filling set of quantum fields), not an interpretational statement about a single particle.

It was interesting to see his comments on Hayek.

Friedman had something similar to say about Hayek:

"[I am] an enormous admirer of Hayek, but not for his economics. I think Prices and Production is a very flawed book. I think his [Pure Theory of Capital] is unreadable. On the other hand, The Road to Serfdom is one of the great books of our time".

From https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Hayek
>New fires are detected via infrared usually in less than 24 hours.

That's not enough. Per the forecasted fire danger map[0]:

"Extreme - Fires start quickly, spread furiously, and burn intensely. All fires are potentially serious. Development into high intensity burning will usually be faster and occur from smaller fires than in the very high fire danger class. Direct attack is rarely possible and may be dangerous except immediately after ignition."

The lesser two classes have similar narratives. Given the speed at which fire spreads, earlier the detection the merrier.

As an aside, I was going to suggest artillery as a potential candidate for immediate response, but it seems that's already been thought up.[1]
