I think the observes are in super position and measurement collapses us and the world. Thus there are no nonlocal effects rather we just get rid of multiple universes which were averages together and pick one, or at least the subset of possible universes that correspond to that particular measurement. Thus instead of non local effects one selects from multiple existing solutions at present and discard the rest.

I think this makes a lot more sense.

The other alternative was we are in a simulation and it has variable levels of resolution (wave verses particle) and it will computer higher resolutions on demand (eg observers), but that these on demand increases in resolution affect the simulation going forward. This seems to be overly complex thus I prefer the first interpretation.

I am a layman in this area so I am probably wrong.

There must already exist a formal name for this? Isn't this where multiverses comes into play?
A laptop from 2008 will still run Windows 10, including the features that are not allowed on but the more modern Macbook laptops like night light.

Sandy Bridge laptops are not supported by Mojave and up, but will probably be softwarematically fine while continuing to get more features while running the latest versions of Linux or Windows. Amazing technologies like changing your wallpaper over the course of the day (GNOME in the '00s onward) or making your screen yellow are all supposedly not functional on macOS on those Sandy Bridge laptops.

I think one of the Democratic candidates has been advocating for Universal Basic Income.

Seems like it would stimulate the economy, more than regular tax cuts... but not sure how much.
I think a big part of it is how much canonical documentation and resources has improved in JavaScript vs. how much people are struggling with it in Python (as someone who does more Python than JS but does both).

Python libraries tend to have less documentation and their documentation tends to be less live whereas JavaScript has been more stable lately (something I didn't think I'd ever write).

Funnily enough the last time I really struggled with a JavaScript library's docs it was Tensorflow.js (a Python port).

Also, I'd love to see a comparison that checks "all" JavaScripts (+TypeScript).
The latest versions of java are actually quite nice and implement a lot of modern features from those languages. It wouldn’t be my first choice but it’s by no means a bad or dated language.
I don't think deduction means what you think it means. If you deduct 100%, you aren't deducting it from the total tax owed. You are deducting from your total taxable income.

So if your tax rate is 30% and you spent $1,000 on a camera, you will save $300 on taxes. So the camera is not free. But you do get it for effectively $700.

Additionally, you can't deduct the value of a purchase AND depreciate it every year. You do one or the other. And which one you do is dictated by tax law.

Double dipping is tax fraud.

A proper standard for redacted documents would be a format where the author provides a list of ((text, position), signature) entries and the redactor is free to remove elements of this list when redistributing it.

Capitalism is a system of the survival of the fittest, materially, in that people have to subject themselves to the vagaries of the market and sell their labour to acquire they means of life, and culturally, in that people are primarily valued according to their market worth.

European countries have tried to offset the marketisation of human life and society through universal healthcare, labour regulations, and (mostly) generous welfare systems. The US does not have universal healthcare, has few of Europe's labour regulations (e.g. mandated working hours, holiday time, sick and paternity leave) and spends half as much on welfare programmes. It would be astonishing if that had nothing to do with American homelessness.

The fact that Americans donate a lot means nothing in particular in this context. Little of that goes toward creating a working healthcare and welfare system, or changing the basic moral fabric of American life. The largest share goes towards religions, as I understand it.

>Since we find the idea of involuntarily committing psychiatric patients to be unpalatable these days

We closed the asylums, because the long-term detention of the mentally ill is costly and inhumane. We can do better than just warehousing people in pseudo-prisons. We completely failed to provide adequate support in the community for people with severe and enduring mental illness, which is why so many people are trapped in a cycle of homelessness and incarceration.

Most of these people aren't "incompatible with peaceful society", they just need help and can't get it. If any one factor is to blame, it's the systematic defunding of social work and community mental health. If your local library is full of mentally ill homeless people, the fundamental questions are why do these people have nowhere else to go? and why is nobody here who actually has the training to help these people?.

Calling the monthly and yearly pricing different tiers is confusing and not customary. I would just call it Pro and then say "$2/month (yearly, or 3$/month monthly)" or something like that. Check out some other SaaS pricing pages on how they do it :-)

If you want to simplify, you can also just offer the monthly billing option for now, as the $1 difference is not that big anyways and it's less confusing for folks (in general, the less decisions a user needs to make before purchasing the higher the conversion rate).

Good luck, I'll keep on eye on it. For me, a mobile app is a must to switch.

No matter the type of company, deducting 100% of something does not reduce your tax burden by that amount. Multiply your tax rate times the amount of the deduction to see you tax savings. If you deduct 100% of a laptop and you or your company pays 30% tax rate, then you save about $300 because you were able to deduct.

You aren't getting the laptop for free.
The Lifesaving Power in Stem Cells
Gah, those wordclouds are horrible attempts of analyzing "what the questions are about". There is no attempt at normalizing term frequency, or removing non-informational words. So words like "get" and "using" get a high score.

It may also seem that the text analyzed is the entire post including metadata. For instance "closed" and "duplicate" both show, maybe just be because of "closed as duplicate"...
Maybe even including the answers. Which could explain why "pip" would show up so often.

The summaries are also pretty off. "vector" mostly because C++ is about 3D graphics vectors? No, probably just a whole lot of std::vector...
Pragmatically, the reason I would want municipal broadband is because it would be less expensive than Comcast or whatever private provider, right?

But would it be? I've used various of the major cable internet providers over the years and I can always get all the speed I want for $80 per month or less.

Or is this mostly about internet access for the poor, tax-funded?
Ah, yes, I see that now. That's a shame - quite annoying really.

I don't get it. I don't really see what it is I wrote that warranted getting "flagged". I just said I wasn't keen on maintaining an account and, with that, a HN reputation.

I'm assuming it's against the rules to copy/paste my comment again in response to someone else so I'll just leave it, but that kills the want to participate.

Ironically, I'd bet that had it been a Facebook algorithm moderating the content (instead of just anybody having the power to censure/flag) my comment would still stand - and in this case, that'd be more fair to "free speech".

I think it's interesting how you mention that you struggled with the docs of Tensorflow.js and attribute that to it being a Python port, rather than it being the absolute cutting edge of machine learning. Are other state-of-the-art , pure JS ML (or similar level of complexity and novelty) libraries better documented?

Maybe it's obvious to others but I didn't really know what you were selling until the first FAQ. Maybe you need a strapline something like "a new way to work with your Google Mail". I thought it was perhaps an independent MUA app (and assumed it was going to be Mac only, because of the name).

When I first arrived on the page I clicked your first call to action button, which takes one to a Google login, but backed out because I hadn't a clue at that point what it was.

Looks like "a front-end to gmail using Google's API", I guess you need to put that in non-tech speak.
On resolving the type vs. member conflict in C++: The Color Color problem
I think it's just that you're not allowed to be sleeping outside. There are still about 200 actively homeless people (as in, sleeping outside) in Amsterdam, which isn't much for a city of around 1 million people. There are shelters, and there's the social net to fall in, in case you cannot afford to live or get medical help.

If you get cancer it won't mean you'll have so many bills you'll have to live outside. If you have disability, mental or otherwise, it doesn't mean you'll have to rely on the generosity of your family to be able to survive. And if you do sleep outside the police will likely make you not is my understanding.

As a European who's done the math several times over the last decade, my impression is that Americans in desirable states pay about as much in taxes (when you account for everything) as Western Europeans. For some things the results are better, for others they're worse, but overall I don't think there's all that much difference.
I get why they did this.

Document formats have gotten so complicated that you have no idea whether the redaction software you use actually does its job or doesn't. Going analog then back gives you a very good guarantee that you can't get otherwise.

In order for there to be guaranteed no leaks, the redaction software has to be bug-free. Leaks can be anything, from how much free space there is between allocated regions to highly precise layout placement information that you can use to figure out censored words on a trial & error basis if you have a copy of the used software. So you can't really come up with a watertight formal definition of leak-freedom, which makes proving that your software removes all leaks impossible, at least in rich-text documents. The only way I see is to go full ascii or something.

Donations as a percentage of GDP is a terrible metric when comparing with countries where caring for the disenfranchised is seen as the responsibility of the government and almost wholly funded by taxes.

It's absolutely stunning that there is > 1.5 million non-profits in the US, and one has to question why?

Looking at a bunch of them in the homeless causes, and seing that it's not unusual at all that the chief executives of tiny non-profits receives $100 000-$200 000 in compensation which in many cases is 4%-7% of the expense budget, one might be tempted to think that many of the non-profits and their donations are based more on economy than empathy.
That's a fair point. In this particular case the documentation was significantly worse than most new JavaScript libraries I'm used to and pretty similar to most Python libraries I'm used to.

Sometimes parameters were missing, what values you can pass in were missing and there was a general lack of documentation on how to do things (sans a few tutorials).

I can name a bunch of examples. Here is a very simple one: what values can I pass as a loss function to LayersModel#compile? (I had to dig through the code to figure it out)

Hey, I really like the app and have signed up. One thing I would add is multi- family units. Even better would be the concept of "house hacking" or buying a multi-family and moving into one of the units. This may just be a US thing, but this allows you to have a low down payment and cash flow and live for free. This is a pretty popular thing to do in the US, and I haven't seen any tools that account for it. I am currently doing this and use excel for all my calculations.
Also, maybe add a remodel calculator, I. E. If I do a remodel for 10,000 and the rent goes up by 500 my yoy roi is like 60%. This number goes up even more of you get a loan and use leverage.

What you are talking about was already covered by the old copyright system. The new copyright system only adds protection against uploading the stolen work on an asset store.

Also the big publishers can now just submit your work to the copyright collectives and you will receive rakedowns on assets you own. Good luck proving that though.
You are so right. Spot on in fact. Thank you for the tip.

I will change that asap. It's too confusing.

Sorry, but there should be a difference of $22 to purchase the yearly plan (which saves $11 - oh I see you meant to type $11 not $1). Yes, perhaps it's not that much of a difference, but it can add up :)

>Oh and while it doesn't "live" with the code, I can at least look up a line in question and see which commits have changed it, along with their commit messages.

The first job I had, I was working on software that had originally been developed by a software engineer but had then been passed to the stewardship of non-programmers.

Originally, it had been checked into CVS (yeah, it was that old), but the non-programmers didn't know what that was or how to use it, so when they started making experimental edits, they just copied the source folder to a new location and labelled it "NEW <project>". By the time I got involved there were over 200 of these folders on the network drive, it was unclear which one if any represented the head revision, and the machine with CVS on it had long ago been lost and existed only as a legend.

This wasn't insignificant software by the way. I don't feel like telling you exactly what it was, but it was an intense physics simulation and it has quietly impacted probably around a million lives over the last few decades.

The point is, don't assume your commit messages are as permanent as your code, they're not. Non-developers just barely grasp source code being important but they don't understand VCS history /at all/. Put important comments in your code.

So have you been to San Francisco or other big US cities..? A typical discussion you would have with other expats there was right what the post said: That the degree of homelessness and its ignorance are shocking.

These European cities you name are no comparison to SF. Brussels is known to be one of the more shoddy, dangerous places in Europe, I've been there very recently (i.e. even with many refugees who have fallen out of the system on the street) and it still did not compare to the degree of homelessness that can be seen in SF. I have yet to find a whole downtown street full of homeless people in Europe.
I don’t know of any country that does this, but it’s not completely unreasonable for all tenants to be accumulating equity in their residence, so that living in the same place continuously for a long time will eventually result in them owning it.
Schizophrenia -- responsible for much of the extreme behavior that librarians see -- is an organic disease that affects both the rich and poor at equal rates. It has nothing to do with how you were raised.

It's true that wealthy families can afford much better care for their schizophrenic family members, but poverty certainly does not cause schizophrenia.

Otherwise, I strongly agree with you that generational poverty is a critical societal problem to be solved.
