This is for Jupyter Notebook.

For the cases when you start with huge dataset, and want to generate dozens graphs and tables on the screen, each changeable interactively without data reload. And leave python interpreter running, so you can run more code if you have more questions. Oh, and do all the hard work on the cloud machine with hundred of gigs of RAM, while displaying the data on your laptop over slow internet link.

I have tried to implement those things by hand (intermediate state, HTML generation, shotgun plotting, pdb interaction), and it is a major pain.

Notebooks work great in this situation. There are some downsides -- like inability to ask filenames from user -- but those could be easily bypassed, as this article shows (my solution will be a user-created symlink btw, not an ini file)

These kinds of comparisons just don’t work and they come off as being an odd sort of defensive reply. Not to mention it’s a false equivalence. In the end though it’s a personal choice that really doesn’t need to be criticized, whether it is based on preference or ethical beliefs.

It would be nice if we ever got any good privacy legislation for it to include a requirement that a company keep money in a trust to retain services to erase servers with private information of public citizens. That, along with some specific rules about what private information can be collected or retained, might greatly change the economics of the "online free service supported by massive data mining of customers" space, which IMO would be a very good thing.

the distribution of abnormalities should be weighted by the severity of a miss. Unfortunately there are many abnormalities with lethal outcomes if missed. So it’s very hard to get a sense if a reconstruction algorithm will adversely affect outcomes. I would appreciate even a more detailed look at trying to estimate this, especially in light of how much more a deep learning system can be. However that is not what’s happening. Everyone is happy to just jump over the bar that has been set for previous reconstruction algorithms.

Our team of ~12 devs has gone from extremely anti-MS to very open towards Microsoft. Only two of our devs still use code editors other than VSCode and Live Share is the one killer feature.

Fantastic work!

>But what makes you think the government should decide either?

The default position in the US system is that the government does decide these things - you're arguing against the status quo here, which is fine, but the way you are positioning this seems like you think this is an aberration from the norm.

>What makes you think that the government is capable of discerning the correct number?

The economists and advisers they (hopefully) listen to, they don't pluck it out of the air, they base it on a significant body of research that they deem to be the most correct (at least in a perfect world, ideology and the complexity of it complicates this of course).

>And if you think there should be a single number, why should it be $15/hr vs $10, $20, $50, or $100?

>How is it possible for a federal minimum wage to magically be "correct" for all combinations of: <snip>

This is a fair point, a living wage in NY is very different to a living wage out in the middle of nowhere.
You could argue that if people are so desperate for work they should be willing to move across the country for jobs in a cheaper place to live, but life is usually not that simple of course.

Ultimately, one minimum wage that is deemed a living wage across the USA is better than the alternative in my view. But I'd definitely be amenable to arguments as to how better to base the living wage depending on the area. (Though no doubt that'd have its own difficulties).

>The real minimum wage is always 0, for the workers that didn't get hired. Minimum wage laws are ultimately restrictions an individual's right to enter into a contract.

I mean, sure, contracts have laws around them based on what is legal, what is regulated etc. That's par the course for a government/legal system.

I can't just add arbitrary things into a contract that have been deemed to be illegal. Positioning it as a "restriction" does not make this particularly negative. I'm not sure I get the point here.
I think it’s the lack of will to study these sort of things that is dangerous. There just doesn’t seem to be this sense of caution among the people working on this. They seem to just want to jump over the low bar set by the fda and move ahead to patient care.

Last time I took such overnight train in Europe was Frankfurt to Copenhagen in 2013 by DB, and it was nice and comfortable. Trains always have more leg space and moving around areas than an airplane. With budget airlines they are trying to cram in as many people as possible, almost to the point of making you feel claustrophobic.

With trains there is no hassle of going to the airport, as they are mostly around city center. Also, I found people to be more friendly in trains, unlike in airplane, where most people have their headphones on, and do-not-disturb expressions.
They’re my goddamn bits, that’s what’s the matter.

This is so true. You have to understand most people are not going to invest that much in getting up to speed with the science. A lot of climate science is counter intuitive. Like a global rise in temp can result in colder winters and more storms.

Telling people how dumb they are for ignoring something that doesn't make sense to them doesn't help. Not when you have people who are far kinder to them telling them something else is going on.

As dumb as it sounds, the biggest thing I've missed is seeing the sender's image in the main view, where the checkboxes are in gmail.

You wouldn’t have to research anything either if you bought a System76 or Dell Developer laptop which come with Linux preinstalled. Everything would work out of the box.

You are comparing apples and oranges by complaining that Linux didn’t work on a laptop where it didn’t come preinstalled, whereas OSX worked on one where it did. If you tried to install OSX on the laptop you installed Linux on instead it would almost certainly fail, and if itnworked it would be because of orders of magnitude more research needed to build a hackintosh.

In a comparison with Windows Linux might fail the “install on a random laptop and have it working” test, but certainly not against OSX.

Kennedy certainly didn't.

Neither Bush did. (Indeed, you may wish to compare the frequency of Trump at Mar-a-lago vs. Bush Sr. at Kennebunkport...)

Reagan had Rancho del Cielo -- his several hundred acre ranch at which he spent so much time that it was referred to as the "Western Whitehouse."

Obama went from $0 to a multimillionaire.

The Clintons went from a $0 to several hundred million. (As far as the Clintons... well, if you think the Clinton's didn't benefit from the Clinton Foundation, I guess you've drunk the Kool-Aid... You oughta take some time to see how many millions of dollars in speaking fees, travel, and accommodations the Foundation paid to the three Clintons.)

The Bush's were already incredibly wealthy, but probably quadrupled their net worth through their semi-private 'Carlyle Group' investment fund.

Your animosity towards Trump leads you to attack the one area where he's head and shoulders above the others: he's going to leave office with a lower net worth.

I mean, there are ways to change that, index it based on CPI or something (economists have better methods of doing that of course).

But I think the point of "says who?" is a fair one, because livable wage in major cities is always way higher than in the smaller towns or outskirts.

The outsized ability of companies to influence the government is the core problem that must first be solved.

Replace companies with nobility or aristocracy and you're talking about a problem as old as civilization itself. The fact is, small groups with control over a lot of resource (elites) will always work to consolidate and secure their power. Barring some radical, unforeseen technology, the masses of people will always have a more difficult time coordinating their actions to prevent this. This is the class struggle narrative of history.

Yes that technology is called Common Lisp. You hack together whatever you want at the highest possible abstraction level, pluck out just what you changed, and play with it by hand to test it. No writing tests, no types, no complex syntax to learn, no limits on macros hackery, no guarantees anything will work either but you're likely just doing it for a hobby and not in a highly complex professional setting. I would imagine professional musicians also feel like they're doing too much tuning and not enough playing because it's work, and most of the material out there for programming is for/by people in the professional industry which is probably why you don't like it just like you wouldn't want to read professional music theory journals or studio engineering documentation.

Apple was able to pull off a lot of its super human, ahem, super company feats based on the immense god-like celebrity aura of Steve Jobs. Superb, frankly ridiculous (for the other side), business deals would magically materialize at the man's feet. Authorities would look the other way on arguable topics in favor of Apple, engineers would put in uncounted extra hours for the greater "good", and massive manhunts would take place for a prototype phones at his bidding.

Now Apple has to do something it hasn't done in a while - and that is simply to deal with reality. Such is the case when a legend passes.

I'm going to throw this out there not knowing much about the specifics in this case. Academic biologists suffer from tunnel vision when it comes to developing drugs.

Here's a script I've seen play out way too often. Molecule exhibits interesting behavior. Molecule is examined more closely in vitro and in vivo. Effects appear to be for real. More studies are done. Years go by.

And at no time was a single close analog made. Nor was a medicinal chemist ever consulted. Little to no structure-activity relationships were performed. The molecular mechanism of action remains mostly unknown as a result.

The thinking seems to be that drugs are discovered (by biologists), not developed (as in software through an iterative process). Some drugs are discovered, but most are developed.

The compound that biologists are interested in right now isn't the good part. The good part is the underlying mechanism and how amenable it will be to actual drug development.

Realistically, if it's equal splits, they probably each own ~5% of the company (By that stage, the founder shares can be down to ~20%)

If they are raising $175M, their dilution is probably in the ~15% range, putting their valuation a bit north of $1B.

So, each founder probably is worth, on paper, around $50M right now. Again, this assumes equal splits. It's possible that the CEO has more shares by virtue of assuming greater responsibilities.

> Why do people just not think twice about throwing their waste in a ditch or a river or leave their picnic at the beach?

I think there are two main reasons. First, many people don't have environmental awareness. They weren't taught. That's not to blame them, but it's just a fact. However the new generations are indeed educated on that subject. We were taught to not litter, to pick up the trash, etc. But this is where the second issue lies: when we don't follow the rules, nothing happens. No immediate consequences. Whereas in other developed countries, when people break the rules, they get fined, they get other people looking at them funny. That collective awareness helps enforce the simple rules.
Seems perfectly phonetic to me.
