> they stopped using the text because some forum campaign that promoted typing cursewords instead of the unkown word. they probably started showing cursewords on the rendered search highligths on google books.

If I remember correctly, Google later on also sometimes showed two "known" words or, if they had actual other evidence that you are human, two unknown words.
The 777X isn't even flying right now.
tl;dr: because Google massively invades your privacy to know whether you're a bot or not before you tick the box, also the CAPTCHA is a bit more sophisticated than just showing a checkbox to click on.
I would guess it would work the same way as it already does when the position you had is no longer needed/replaced by automation. I'm not sure what the situation in Sweden is like, but I'd wager to guess that that would at least have to come with a severance package (assuming I'm using that term correctly here - not a native speaker). You can't just fire people that are not on unpaid leave either.
And those of us who do remember Windows 1.0 (not using it, though, but I do remember the ads), are probably mostly closer to retirement age than to the start of our careers... I feel old now.

Swede here. I had no idea this existed. I know it is allowed to take a leave for studying but not for starting a company. So i learned something! Anyway, i don't think this is such a big risk here in Sweden because very few take the opportunity for doing stuff like that. Running your company i generally frowned upon in many areas still here.

Creating a commercial airline is one of the most complex business endeavors one can take one. Such a huge amount of variables, along with predictions about flight technology, supply/demand, customer service, and fuel costs are a necessary part of it.

The likelihood of an incident like that even with a bleed air system is rather tiny, considering the air comes from the cold bypass section of the engines, and there's a redundancy in that multiple engines are available to provide it. If all your engines are emitting fumes, you have bigger problems than the air quality in the cabin (and you have oxygen masks to deal with it)

> Everything in mathematics is divorced from reality.

Mathematics is an abstraction, but it is still useful for talking about concrete problems. Your mathematical assumptions can be either close or far away from your problem domain. Sometimes we introduce idealized objects, such as unbounded integers, in order to abstract further and simplify our reasoning.

These ideal objects can then either be "compiled away" in specific instances, or really do ignore corner cases which might invalidate your results.

For an example of the former, you can assume that there is an algebraically closed field containing a specific field, give an argument in terms of this closure and then translate this argument to one which does not construct the closure explicitly. The translation is mechanical and does not represent additional assumptions you made.

The second kind of ideal object is something like the real numbers applied to physics. We can think of a real number as an arbitrarily good approximate result. In practice we can only ever work with finite approximations. At the scales we are operating on the difference is usually not relevant, but there might, for example, be unstable equilibria in your solutions which are not physically realizable.

> Better by what definition?

Informally, better because it is "simpler". There are fewer corner cases to consider, theorems are more inclusive, constructions are more direct.

Formally, the theory has more models and is therefore more widely applicable. Theorems have fewer assumptions (but talk about a different and incompatible type of objects).

> The onus is on critics to do better. Dieudonne/Bourbaki made a valiant and elegant attempt even if they intentionally snubbed the needs of probability theory. And "better" will obviously be judged by the broader community.

Oh, sure, but that's not what I want to argue about.

I can tell you with certainty that classical measure theory is complicated by the interplay of excluded middle and the axiom of choice. This is a technical result. You can see this yourself in textbooks every time the author presents an intuitive "proof idea" which then has to be refined because of problems with the definitions. In alternative models, or in a metatheory with alternative assumptions, the simple proof idea usually works out fine.

Small business owner here. If your a significant share of your employees decides to take six months of unpaid leave all at the same time just because it's legal, you have bigger problems than legislation.

If anything this helps employees leave shitty companies without the full risk of just quitting entirely. You know how capitalism is about a marketplace of rational actors? Actors will be a lot more rational if they know they can still have a job to fall back on if things don't work out.

Where every individual can contribute to centralised services

If we had a personally-hosted, contributor-is-owner Internet then there would be no need for 'safe harbor'. You could post all the Harry Potter content to your own website and when it was taken offline no-one else would be affected.

Safe harbor is a magnificent tool for centralising power. Little wonder that the big corps love it.

Also it’s not just the percentage of employees on leave, but also about their position.

> Would they be forced to rehire you

The employees aren't unhired, they are on leave. And yes, the employer is required to return you to your old position, or a very similar one.

> What if the position ... is no longer needed or has been replaced by automation?

Then they return you to a similar position and/or run less efficiently than they may have done otherwise.

I don't see this as particularly different from similar issues you get with parental or education leave arrangements. There are sometimes edge cases that complicate things a bit but any reasonably sizeable organisation can usually deal with them without too much bother.
I lived in Fairbanks, Alaska, for 25 years.

A few years ago I spent a week in Norway (Tromso) to catch the northern lights. On our last night, we were walking with a Norwegian that was cross-country skiing in the middle of the night when the sky lit up with amazing, vibrant greens, purples, and even golds. The Norwegian even commented that he's never seem it so amazing before.

For most of the week we were impressed by the beautiful, slowly flowing rivers of green in the sky, and the glowing green snow around us. But for ten minutes that night, we saw something so extraordinary that I absolutely cannot describe the sensation of seeing shapes, colours, and motions that the eyes and mind simply did not evolve to comprehend.

I remember when the A380 was starting to get some public media attention and there were these great sounding potential-perks of these new super jumbos: an on-board gym! a library! a creche! perhaps even an on-board casino!

In hindsight it was perhaps inevitable that all that extra space would just mean more people packed in just as tight as they are on smaller planes.

While I am sure its very nice up in first class, my A380 experience has been as soul-destroying and uncomfortable as any other plane.
It's true that fume events are rare, but they do happen. It seems that leaking seals are one cause. If you search aviation incident databases there seem to be one or two reported fume events somewhere in the world per month on average, which is indeed a tiny incidence compared to the volume of air traffic.

I think the issue you're bringing up is valid but is just a dark-side of VC in general than just a problem with YC.

Thanks a lot for mentioning OnDeck and Kabbage! I hadn't heard of these, and I didn't realize I had some other options for loans. I'm working remotely on a US startup, and some additional capital would be really helpful, to pay for a redesign and some contract work.

EDIT: Ah, I live in Thailand, so I probably won't be able to get a business loan through these companies. (Even though my company is a US C-Corp.) Also I probably don't have enough revenue yet.
Is this surprising? The A380 uses nearly 50% more fuel per seat than a 787/A350. That's when its full! Then you have to fill it up too - and it doesn't go as far. It's just silly. Sure its innovative but that's not economical.
“Inherent Vice” (2009) – Thomas Pynchon's Soundtrack
Doesn't even have to be 3 sigma. Even in a "tiered" secondary school system like in Germany (students are split up to three different levels of school after elementary, about 50% in the highest tier), you maybe have a handful of 2 sigma students per regular year of around 100-150 students per school.

Getting bored and actually having worse grades for these students is a real thing. Especially in classes that need effort and not intellect. On the other hand, forcing intellectual challenging activities (like solving math puzzles, playing chess or building robots) isn't fun for a lot of people that do not like to challenge their brain for fun.

Personally my school grades skyrocketed from slightly above average to the 95% percentile in the last two school years, which was at the same time as I was allowed to participate in a junior student program and was spending one day per week at campus instead of school. I wasn't doing more for school, based on attendance actually less, I was just more inclined to listen and interested in learning, while I was being challenged by my university lectures (basic algorithms, data structures, databases and data modeling).

What are the radiation levels the failed robots experienced? Searching, I keep finding information about radiation levels in reference to human health.

How quickly do electronics accumulate those levels inside Fukushima?

While you haven't expressed the source of your intuition, based on your answers, you see the architecture of human-designed systems, which are engineered based on economic considerations, as being predictive of what natural systems are like.

This is not, generally speaking, true.

Even when built on standard computing architecture, we see that designs influenced by evolutionary design can result in "bizarre, mysterious, and unconventional" designs. I'm quoting from Thompson and Layzell's "Analysis of Unconventional Evolved Electronics" (1999). In that paper, note that the evolve system had a different response to temperature change than the "brittle failure" of normal digital circuits. System crashes like what you describe are "brittle".

Evolution, by human design senses, is incredibly wasteful. We are not going to build computers or distributed computing systems that way, hence any intuition based on those design principles are likely not applicable.

You asked "How can natural selection have a bias that prevents deadlocking in neural compositions?"

The "how" is easy - organisms with hard crashing deadlocks don't reproduce.

You want to know what that mechanism is, which is a different question.

If you really want to understand this, you'll have to talk to biologists who focus on this sort of topic, not a "hacking news" sites.

>Anyone who's been in full-time employment for at least six months is entitled to apply for the unpaid sabbatical, or tjänstledighet, as it's called in Sweden.

Which doesn’t necessarily help if you have certain shards that are hit heavier and it’s more maintenance.

Also, if you are running on prem, you can optimize your VM for cores/RAM. At least on AWS, you can’t perfectly optimize your core count versus RAM vs speed.

But then again, if I were running on prem, I might use Redis because it handles use cases by itself that it would take Memcached+ other servers to manage. With cloud hosting, I could use managed purpose built services if I needed more features than Memcached can handle by itself.

I don't see how you'd describe postgres validly as a key-value store at the storage level / internally. It's a pretty traditional row-store (without support for index oriented tables), i.e. all columns of a table are stored together. At the storage level there's no designation of what the key of a row is. Of course you can have primary keys, but that's a higher layer concern.
