Modern combat is not at all the same thing as WWI/WWII "turn and burn" stuff..."Turn and Burn" was already out of favor with US pilots in WWII.

In WWII, F4 Wildcat pilots soon learned not to get into turning contests with Mitsubishi Zeros. Instead, they maintained altitude and speed, using their advantage in a dive to execute "slashing" attacks.

something that looks like a DJI phantom...the only way I seem them being useful is 1000 of them in a dense cloud around a target.. like stationary mines in the sky hoping to be struck by attackers like a bird strike.

Those drones are plenty fast enough for tanks. Why not a tank equivalent of an aircraft carrier? The tank would act as a mobile charging station and command center. Most modern tanks could be severely disabled by a shaped charge placed directly onto the barrel of the main gun, or directly onto the tread mechanism. The machine guns and targeting systems are also quite vulnerable, the loss of which would also severely degrade the tank's combat power. Tanks have acquired countermeasure systems like Trophy, but those could be overwhelmed through saturation attacks and on current tanks, they are externally mounted and themselves vulnerable.
It's my mistake to think that Hinduism originates from Buddhism. However, core beliefs of both seem to be quite compatible with each other.

Sounds like it's working from the assumption that cyclists are legitimate road users. Problematic assumption.

yeah but if you sell the first day you'll never get an allocation again, word gets around.

since we're making arguments by analogy to star wars, it's worth pointing out that, in universe, it is mainly just xwings that are surprisingly effective against star destroyers. they are too small to be effectively targeted by the larger ships guns, but the only reason they are actually a threat is because each craft carries a small number of proton torpedoes, basically the equivalent of a low-yield tactical nuke IRL. the primary fighter armament (lasers) is essentially harmless to such a large ship deployed in any reasonable number.

the analogy sort of breaks down at this point.
Just reading internet comments by drivers against cyclists would set your prior for that; the animosity is often off the charts.

> In a dogfight an F-35 has an advantage but not a 3-1 advantage. BVR it might.

BVR It's quite limited by its limited weapons load. Disregarding external weapons (if it uses any, it's no longer stealthy) it will either have 2 long range missiles or 4. Most likely the former, if it wants to also accomplish an attack mission in which it will use 2 bays for ground attack and 2 bays for medium range AA.

Now consider that it's not uncommon in BVR to launch 2 missiles at each BVR target in order to raise the chances of a hit. So basically: a stealth F-35 can attack one aircraft in BVR Then it is out of missiles. An aging fourth gen opponent will likely carry six. So the math doesn't work out in favor of the F-35 in BVR if it faces even two fourth gen aircraft. It likely fire and turn back - because it's out of AMRAAMs after the first engagement.

Any airforce with a huge fleet of aging 4th gen fighters and a lax attitude towards losing them and their pilots, can be a very effective defense against F-35's.

Not the OP, but I would consider 2x earnings as a reasonable discount given the youth of the company. Given a normal customer acquisition curve, most of the revenue would be coming from customers with tenure < 1 year. So a buyer could reasonably wonder how long these customers would stick around. Put another way: the LTV hadn't been demonstrated yet.

(No scare quotes needed around earnings; the article doesn't suggest that there was any reason the owner couldn't just pocket the monthly earnings.)

I wonder what eye tracking data from those with high-functioning autism (or whatever they call what we used to call Aspergers) would reveal, since "face blindness" and the inability to interpret facial expressions are typical hallmarks in those individuals?

That is, do such individuals experience a degradation in coordination in such tasks, and/or related tasks, due to such inabilities?

Or do they make up for it in other ways?
Anyone think this report might be biased? They picked immigrants who have settled in San Fransisco, New York, London and Berlin. These are alpha cities that attract the best talent and requires considerable effort from the individual to thrive there.

They do have the number of immigrants per country. But it is very possible that the people who ended up in, say, Rural Colorado, don't have the same profiles as those the survey picked.

Actually, the best cost-containment strategy is to make the provider liable.

That's the notion behind comprehensive HMO systems, with fixed capitated premiums, minimal copayments (a very low friction suffices against most frivolous use0, penalties for failed delivery (see also the Chinese doctor model: the patient pays when healthy), comprehensive monitoring and routinisation, a public health model, and som external oversight.

Within the US, that model describes the Kaiser Permanente healthcare model. Or Medicare I'd add a Danish malpractice remedy to that (provision of care to correct or mitigate mis-delivery or errors), but it's remarkably effective.

Pharmaceuticals remain outside the Kaiser and Medicare systems, a chief weakness.

There's also the fact that virtually all improvements over pre-modern longevity come from public health rather than acute medical interventions.

If you really want to get the full market value out of your IPO, you should use something like a Dutch Auction https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/dutchauction.asp

IIRC Google did that, and didn't experience a first-day pop.

The company sells its shares to the underwriter at the IPO price; so the company gets the money up front from the underwriter. It is in the company's interest to price it as high as it can; and in the underwriter's interest to price it as low as it can. If the underwriter wins, you see a pop; if the company wins, you see flat or a decline.

This is why a Dutch Auction is the best option for IPOs, but underwriters hate that (insert "the underwriters hate him!" meme).
Can some kind soul please explain to me why popping on the first day is considered to be a good thing? Isn't the company leaving the money on the table for investment banks and their rich clients if they do not sell their shares at an optimal price?

I took a 256 square hilbert curve and took random points in it (discarding points where the euclidian distance was > 8).

Here is the plot: https://gist.github.com/justinvanwinkle/22a15bb33536095b05dc...

Notice the Log y axis. I don't you think you could consider this even roughly continuous. This is only even bounded because I only took points within the 256x256 grid, if I let it run over say a 1000x1000 grid the hilbert distances wouldn't plot well even on a log plot.

The second plot I took any random point within euclidian distance 8 from a random first point, and didn't restrict it to stay in the same 256x256 grid. 10k points total. Even at distance 1, you get hilbert distances like:

I constantly had this problem, especially at intersections, and actually read recently on twitter (I wish I could dig up the details!) that transmitters the MTA uses to communicate with trains occupy a similar part of the spectrum.

Can you explain the "float" observations and argument?
Thank you for taking one for the team. Worth it in regards to its effect on public health.
It's a simple break down of communication. I try to be upfront about this, but
no matter how hard I try or how many times I try to clarify it, I can't stop
the spread of inaccurate claims. (And my goodness, this entire HN thread has
numerous inaccuracies just with GNU grep alone.)

On equivalent tasks, ripgrep is not orders of magnitude faster than GNU grep,
outside of pathological cases that involve Unicode support. (I can provide
evidence for that if you like.)

For example, in my checkout of the Linux kernel, here's a recursive grep that
searches everything:

$ time LC_ALL=C grep -ar PM_RESUME | wc -l
17

real 1.176
user 0.758
sys 0.407
maxmem 7 MB
faults 0

Now compare that with ripgrep, with a command that uses the same amount of
parallelism and searches the same amount of data:

$ time rg -j1 -uuu PM_RESUME | wc -l
17

real 0.581
user 0.187
sys 0.384
maxmem 7 MB
faults 0

Which is 2x faster, but not "order of magnitude." Now compare it with how long
ripgrep takes using the default command:

$ time rg PM_RESUME | wc -l
17

real 0.125
user 0.646
sys 0.654
maxmem 19 MB
faults 0

At 10x faster, this is where you start to get to "order of magnitude" faster
claims. But for someone who cares about precise claims with respect to
performance, this is uninteresting because ripgrep is 1) using parallelism and
2) skipping some files due to `.gitignore` and other such rules.

You can imagine that if your directory has a lot of large binary files, or if
you're searching in a directory with high latency (a network mount), then you
might see even bigger differences from ripgrep without generally seeing a
difference in search results because ripgrep tends to skip things you don't
care about anyway.

In summary, there is an impedance mismatch when talking about performance
because most people don't have a good working mental model of how these tools
work internally. Many people report on their own perceived performance
improvements and compare that directly to how they used to use grep. They
aren't wrong in a certain light, because ultimately, the user experience is
what matters. But of course, they are wrong in another light if you're
interpreting it as a precise technical claim about the performance
characteristics of a program.

Coinbase’s New Customer Incentive: Interest Payments, with a Crypto Twist
Basically, it comes down to drivers being selfish assholes. It's not like they're all doing something important with those roads: many of them are driving around for leisure, to see their friends, to go out to eat, to just "take a drive", etc. They have no more right to the road than the cyclists.

The problem is that the drivers don't want to make their politicians build proper cycle-ways for bicyclists to safely travel in. If there were proper bike routes, then you wouldn't see cyclists on the roads slowing people down.

It's largely the same with your garbage chute example. If the complex (or the municipality) can't be bothered to build any decent places for kids to play, like playgrounds, then don't be surprised when they repurpose other things for that. Decent towns and cities always have playgrounds for kids to entertain themselves.
After quickly scanning, it seems that they tested against "calm activity" and "physical activity". But not against "feeling unwell". This seems a bit strange because it would mean that the marker could still be very unspecific (and may perhaps have little to do with seizures).
Yeah. I had a similar experience. I only learned the small, random "blips" I was having was epilepsy after one finally evolved into a full-on seizure and I woke up to a bunch of paramedics standing over me. Unfortunately I denied it and refused to take medicine until I had another grand mal seizure and was injured really badly.

My brain started malfunctioning about 6 months before that. I would get this sensation where I couldn't understand or produce language for 5-30 seconds at a time. It seemed innocuous enough, and people actually told me it was normal, that they forgot words all the time. I don't have any physical or emotional manifestations during those auras (small, partial seizures)

I wish I had gone to a doctor because they would have probably run an EEG and put me on epilepsy medication earlier. Medication can actually slow or halt the development of epilepsy. Unfortunately, these small seizures reinforce themselves over time (epileptogenesis) and your brain essentially learns to have seizures.

As a search and rescue volunteer, I have had a number of fascinating experiences with trained scent dogs. I thought scent dogs only really worked in the movies, but watching them work to find humans lost in the woods was an eye-opening experience.

I watched a dog in training follow a 1km scent trail that was several hours old. This dog was not even fully trained for the activity and followed every footstep to the subject.

They really do navigate with their nose, as well. I was the subject for another exercise, and I watched a dog look almost straight at me, not see me, then pick up my scent and follow their nose straight to me.
This is not necessarily true. See: The washing machine, which gave people an average of ten hours of free-time more each week when it was invented. And countless other inventions that automate away manual labor and are accessible to average people.

I don't doubt that your description of driver psychology is largely correct, but this statement in particular is pretty far from reality. In practice, it's astonishingly easy for drivers to get away with injuring or killing both cyclists and pedestrians, even when they are clearly at fault.
While this is specific to Quebec, I think a lot of Canadians are blind to the Islamophobia that exists across the country. Looking at some of the comments by members of the UCP or some of Doug Fords pals, I don’t think Quebec is that out of step with other provinces.
So far I've been sticking to things I can do purely in CSS (I wanted to move the CW subject lines into the buttons, for instance, but couldn't find a way with the current markup). For that, the Administrator section of Mastodon does keep and store a custom CSS section that it will output as a <style> block on page renders. I've been sharing my CSS changes on my account as I make them, and other admins could just copy and paste them.

(Probably the most major other change was I fought the CSS to make the background 100% black for OLED power savings.)

I'm told there also is a deeper theming system and some shared themes as Ruby gems. I haven't explored that personally because I'm using a shared host and so far I've been happy with the simple custom CSS overrides.
> valued at 10x 2018 revenue, wow, given the losses, wow.

Well it would have to be some multiple of revenue as a multiple of profits wouldn’t make any sense (as its negative).

Still though that’s nuts!
It's some of both. We have fuel taxes which pay for roads, but it's not nearly enough (because the taxes are too low) so a lot of the funds come from general taxes, which everyone pays. So the drivers are paying more for the roads, but the cyclists are also paying for those roads with their income taxes, sales taxes, etc.
Limiting apps' access to the file system is quite an interesting idea! I wonder if any of the other top 2 mobile operating systems do that.
