Read "A programming language", where APL came from - https://www.amazon.com/Programming-Language-Kenneth-Iverson/... - you might get more understanding why it is the way it is.

It is the mathematical notation, put into, as Dijkstra expressed, "technologies of the past", completed (to be Turing-complete) and made executable.

At least, I think, this is the basic idea.

Ya gotta say. I've never worked at McDonalds, but I worked at A&W a long time ago, and there was no problem when someone wanted somethinf fresh made. The burgers took like 2 minutes to cook anyway. They sell fried chicken there though, that was kind of a pain to cook up fresh, it took 20 minutes to fry the chicken.

On that note, I used to work the morning shift, but i remember one day, for some reason, nobody showed up for the afternoon shift so I had to stay. I had no idea I was supposed to start cooking chicken around 4 or so. The families, or people out to get an easy meal for their families, started ordering chicken. So many buckets of chicken...There was not enough chicken by far. People began to grow impatient. Around the time I finally managed to get on top of the chicken orders, people finally showed up for work and I was free.

Sorry, I was originally only going to write the first part of the comment, but as I wrote it, that day came to mind. I'd forgotten about that.

OP and Inkstone editor here. You're right. As scary as it may sound, there's no nation-wide social credit SCORE system in China. Right now blacklists run by the Supreme Court and other government organs make up the bulk of the social credit system. Our team of journalists have been closely monitoring and reporting on-the-ground reality of the system, and what we've found so far isn't quite "Black Mirror" yet.
Candid Interview with the Guy Who “Failed to Build a $1B Company”
Strong agree -- the distribution was a solid deal when it happened and didn't require a paywall. I just gave up on them (http://www.locallyoptimal.com/blog/2019/03/24/publish-indepe...) now that they're forcing you to choose no-paywall or medium distribution. If I'm not wanting a paywall I may as well use my own site and be totally free.

It's a shame, I found the editing interface pretty convenient (image embedding in particular) and conceptually the Medium-run publications make a ton of sense.
your comment is spot on, here is a recent relevant article in HN about it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19479464
Patent expirations don't factor into this article very much, but there's this:

The simple explanation for excessive drug prices is monopoly pricing. Through patent protection and FDA marketing exclusivity, the U.S. government grants pharmaceutical companies a monopoly on brand-name drugs. But monopolies are a recipe for excessive prices. A company will raise prices until its profits start to drop.

That monopoly is very fleeting.

By the time a drug makes it to market, it's typically been about ten years since the patent was issued. That gives a drug company about 8 or so years of exclusivity before any other drug maker can produce the drug without infringement.
Whether or not it is "technically" copyright infringement, it is going to be impossible for a publisher to argue that in court considering they themselves have to publish an AMP-compatible version of their page in the first place, and caching is sold as a core feature of AMP (https://www.ampproject.org/learn/overview/).
But how can I feel like I'm beating the system and employing some amazing hack if I just ask nicely for what I want?
But don’t you have to opt-in to AMP to begin with? Wouldn’t there be some sort of implicit permission in providing the AMP formatted content to begin with?

> Today? Anyone getting pulled over like that would be jailed on charges of terrorism/conspiracy/something but that behavior would be considered highly irregular and put a stop to immediately.

I think you have a general point that is correct, but I question this example. Sketchy looking people with firearms driving beaters are pulled over by police very regularly in the US.

The only thing in this story that police might not let slide today is the hole in the floorboards. That sounds like a legitimately dangerous vehicle that probably shouldn't be on the roads. But that isn't so different from the police not letting you drive around with a broken windshield, and is not the social catastrophe you describe.
This article fails to mention the Quality Adjusted Life Year (QALY) concept. In theory we ought to set maximum prices that third-party payers (governments and private insurance) would pay for drugs based on how many years the drug would add to the patient's life and how much it would improve the patient's quality of life. Setting that maximum insured price would allow the free market to work through price signals and encourage drug companies to focus their research on areas most likely to deliver real benefits to public health. The US federal government currently values a human life at something in the range of $100K per year for regulatory purposes so that would give a starting point.

Of course the notion of setting limits on drug prices is politically fraught due to misguided concerns over "socialism", "big government", "death panels", etc.

I agree. I included my wording specifically because of this.

My response email to the rejection today was very clear. Unfortunately, it was also passive aggressive.

Hopefully I'll learn to clear my head before reacting next time.

I'm currently doing a thesis using TDA. Excuse my shameless opportunism, but the topic I've come up with is using figure h [1] as a channel selection mechanism to select EEG channels [2]. I plan to then use a Gaussian process (similar to an SVM) to detect the time when a seizure occurs.

From your position of expertise, can you see any major problems off the top of your head?

No technology has angered me more in the last few years than AMP. I have literally switched my main search engine just so I don't have to deal with AMP.

At no point have I ever appreciated AMP. It has only been a disadvantage.
It's kind of interesting how Little Caesars found success with the opposite strategy. Instead of "our food sucks, lets make it better and improve the ordering experience too", they said "I bet people won't mind if their pizza tastes like cardboard as long as it only costs $5, they don't have to order it, and can pick it up on the way home".

This reminds me a lot of Google Wave. While I have my concerns about a format brought by Google (who may be defining a bit too much of the web these days), adding richness to emails will be refreshing. As long as we keep the idea that a message is something that will not change and be accessible as long as we can access our inbox, I'm all in for improvements. I just hope it evolves into something beyond Google's control.

The research part of R&D is publicly funded, the development part isn’t, and it’s very, very expensive. On average about a billion dollars.
The point being missed: they'd stop you from taking trains or whatever if it wasn't the driver's license. The idea is to make your life miserable so you would pay, so whatever ticks you, they'll do.
Google also caches and serves everything else its robot finds, so if this was a problem it was already a problem long before AMP.
Was he really sent to jail for not paying child support, or was it actually for contempt of court? People generally can't be jailed for debt. But if the subject of a child support order has money and refuses to may, or refuses to take reasonable steps to earn some income, then sometimes the judge has to administer an object lesson on the importance of fulfilling one's obligations. Judges usually don't take that step unless the defendant has demonstrated a long history of irresponsible behavior.

I don't know about McD's, but I work at another very large franchised quick-service restaurant (QSR) (not McD's, but in a different category).

For companies like these, that operate in 10's of thousands of franchisee-owned locations, the number of products and the combination of configurations is not merely a function of the things you see on the menu. It's all of those products, with their different combination of parts (beef patties, lettuce, etc.), and then franchisee and regional variations (In some countries, you can't tell a franchisee what they can or can't sell, etc.)

Add on top of that customer modifications to the product in their order (extra pickles, no onions, etc.)

Why does this matter? It drives lots of stuff - food costs, inventory, inventory & sales forecasting (how many pickles do I need this week?) new item research, profit margins, etc.

So you take this, multiply it by 10,000, 15,000, or, in McD's case, 36,000 stores across 100+ countries (half both those numbers in my company's case) and you're talking about vast amounts of information across millions of transactions every day, and that is in fact Big Data.

Whether this is a smart move, I'm not sure. I'm of the opinion that if a piece of technology is core to the _operation_ of your business (for a QSR, things like POS systems, backend administrative systems, etc.), it should be in your house. Other things (HR systems, big data systems) should not be. But maybe McD's sees it differently.
That makes the problem even worse!
You did notice that the video just shows the bones, right? Flight surfaces and muscles will cost you extra.

The key bit is right at the end, showing launch in real time. There is no descent for lack of lift because there is no time for it to happen in. While the animal is still rising from the jump, the wings swing out and take up the load, in a fractional second.

Both the patent and the finding of patent infringement are a bit more complicated than that.

In order for a finding of patent infringement, one or more claims of the patent must be infringed.

Claim 1 recites:

A multiple supply voltage device comprising:

a core network operative at a first supply voltage;
and

a control network coupled to said core network wherein said control network is configured to transmit a control signal, said control network comprising: an up/down (up/down) detector configured to detect a power state of said core network;

processing circuitry coupled to said up/down detector and configured to generate said control signal based on said power state;

one or more feedback circuits coupled to said up/down detector, said one or more feedback circuits configured to provide feedback signals to adjust a current capacity of said up/down detector;

at least one first transistor coupled to a second supply voltage, the at least one more first transistor being configured to switch on when said first supply voltage is powered down and to switch off when said first supply voltage is powered on;

at least one second transistor coupled in series with the at least one first transistor and coupled to said first supply voltage, the at least one second transistor being configured to switch on when said first supply voltage is powered on and to switch off when said first supply voltage is powered down;

at least one third transistor coupled in series between the at least one first transistor and the at least one second transistor.

Probably not the best example. There are countless reports of ContentID falsely claiming copyright violations. I personally had a gaming video muted for violating some copyright by some company I never heard of when the only thing playing were ingame sound effects (no music).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAND_Health_Insurance_Experime....
An early paper with interim results from the RAND HIE concluded that health insurance without coinsurance "leads to more people using services and to more services per user," referring to both outpatient and inpatient services.[5] Subsequent RAND HIE publications "rule[d] out all but a minimal influence, favorable or adverse, of free care for the average participant"[6] but determined that a "low income initially sick group assigned to the HMO... [had a] greater risk of dying" than those assigned to fee-for-service (FFS) care.[7] The experiment also demonstrated that cost sharing reduced "appropriate or needed" medical care as well as "inappropriate or unnecessary" medical care.
