You'd think that putting wolves and bears into suburbia would attract even more resistance than bowhunting from tree stands. Something must be done about the deer overpopulation, they raid peoples' gardens, they prevent forest regeneration, they are a pest. Maybe we could start by withdrawing from the suburbs.
Types don’t exist at runtime in the way you’re describing. It isn’t possible to express a program that asks what type a value has.

Dynamic types are sometimes called “tags” to distinguish the case in which this information _does_ exist at runtime.
i think that if the legalized substance has strong sanctions and limits, it can work. Like smoking is legal, but disapproved, heavily taxed, and limited in public. If the sanctions don't or can't exist, legalization won't work in the long run.
Are they suggesting writing code that you can't later understand or debug?

Does this actually work out for Haskellers? I mean, I guess I'll believe you if you tell me it does, Haskell is different enough from the kind of programming I do that I don't think I know anything at all about it.

As a non-native English speaker, I'd be curious of how an old person would say that in English. "I'm like..." is such a convenient phrase that I can't think of any other replacement that sounds equally natural and spontaneous.

As for the original Japanese phrase, I can imagine it's something along the line of "「おい、どうした」とか言って" or something like that, where "like" can be literally replaced with とか (alike, etc.) which has been a common phrase in Japanese for decades.
It is bizarre to me that the language in this article implies this is a bad thing.
Can anyone explain the N26 case to me?

I've tried to read two articles on it and they don't make sense.

It seems they stored data on users who closed their account to prevent money laundering, which is apparently fine if the bank actually blocks operation of those accounts according to one article.

But somehow this was not the case for those old accounts that were closed? How can you close an account but it's still an operational account? Like, was it still possible to send money to it etc.?

My guess is that the article is wrong and this was simply about them preventing legitimate users to close and then reopen a new account.

I have a hard time believing they were not allowed to keep that data for some time after acccount closing. It seems to be more about how it was used.
Some people believe in the notion that adults should make decisions for themselves.
>but the adoption rate of smoking among younger folks has spiked since flavoured e-cigs were introduced.

People cite this as if its the end of the justification for legislative action. No, it's merely the beginning of the argument. So the rate of e-cig usage is growing rapidly among teens. Why should I care?
Good question. Definitely learn the rudiments of piano playing, up to playing block chords (triads) with either hand.

Beyond that, I think they diverge too much. A lot of piano technique is getting both hands working together to play rhythm and melody - but generally synths are doing one thing at a time, and cooperating with other instruments.

A lot of classic synth lines are monophonic, aka "one-finger" lines, although to play them fluidly with one finger would be pretty hard. So pianistic skills would be wasted in this context.

When polysynths got common in the mid 80s, pianistic fingering of chords (but not necessarily rhythms) was used. I mean, to play the melancholy chords of "Drive" by the Cars, you need some of the skills of a pianist, but not rhythmic ones. You do need two hands.

(Of course the DX7 was played very much as a piano at times)

I do think you need the music theory though, such as awareness of chords and functional harmony.

Consider learning some of the classic synth basslines - they tend to have tutorials on youtube - like Material Girl or Tarzan Boy.

You’ve just described hell.
But bus lanes and roads are public infrastructure. Non-governmental buildings are private property.

I’m not saying there isn’t a housing issue in the Bay Area, there is, but that separate from private property. City gov is making it difficult for all but the most expensive developments to become viable. There is seemingly no way to build middle class housing in SF and be profitable.
I suspect that is more like "sales" users rather than customers/contacts/leads/etc.
>who do you think deserves a greater punishment - a drug addict who stabbed your child during a high, or a CEO who knowingly prevented your child and hundreds of others from being able to afford the only life-critical medicine available in order to maximise their profits, even though the cost to manufacture that medicine is 1/100000th of what it was being sold at?

First, you can look at intent. If a person stabs someone, then it usually means that they intended to directly hurt someone. If a CEO raises the prices of a drug, then it usually means that they intended to make more money. The harm it causes is collateral damage rather than the main intent.

Second, a CEO controls/owns the production of the drug. They are not responsible before the public for the public having access to the drug. Private property means that they don't have to share if they don't want to. If this wasn't the case then where would you draw the line? We can all agree that asking for $43k for the treatment is outrageous and scummy, but where do you draw the line? $10k? $5k? $1k? $500?

Another question: if they had stopped producing the drug altogether then would that have been morally better in your opinion?

Obviously these price increases are ridiculous and unacceptable, but I don't see how you fix this without the government requiring that a drug company must supply a certain drug that they started making for X amount of time and in Y amount.
Have you looked into Tradier? (I have not tried them myself)

https://documentation.tradier.com/brokerage-api/trading/plac...
Some of the type-machinery code (hint, it has words like "hoist" or "lift" that describe type operations, not data operations) is like that, and its really not a problem because it does the only thing it can do given the types, and the things it does have nothing to do with your business domain or I/O so its never going to change unless a library you are using changes. When that happens its annoying but you just play type tetris again until the red squiggly lines go away and then you are fine for another few years. It isn't something I'd really brag about though as its really hard to explain the benefits of this stuff to non-Haskellers and you can end up wasting infinite amounts of time polishing these abstractions instead of getting work done.
Pay the full cost of a license is one thing...

The main issue with garbage companies like Oracle and Salesforce isn't that they charge... or that they charge a lot...

It's that the REAL cost of using their garbage is hidden and obfuscated and difficult to pin down.

> Please OP, you're actively hurting the adoption of Haskell by posting stuff like this in the wrong places/context.

I think what's really hurting the adoption of Haskell is Haskell. This blog post represents Haskell quite well. Haskell will never be "popular", just like category theory will never be "popular".
At first I was against it, then I heard a rant from the local cornerstore about how e-ciggs were one of his best sellers and he was pissed and I realized it was probably a net good since it was both rabidly popular and really unhealthy. Sure, it's ironic cigarettes are still legal, but that doesn't mean we should stop passing marginally good laws.

Price controls have been demonstrated to work in a number of other countries. I agree, in general, but when you have a proof by existence of efficacy, you can't really claim that they don't work in medicine.

SF is completely fucked from a priorities standpoint. Really glad I no longer live anywhere near there.
These statistics don't tell the whole story and often are misleading. While increasing the number of welfare recipients may decrease poverty stats for paper-pushing bureaucrats, on the ground you're increasing the number of people who are dependent on the govt for subsistence which isn't viable in the long-term.

It's been shown that a comfortable reliance on welfare disincentivizes becoming independent again. Especially when welfare recipients have a higher income than minimum wage. Any rational actor will have a hard time transitioning to minimum wage work at the risk of losing welfare when income from welfare is higher. This is plainly obvious https://www.cheatsheet.com/culture/states-welfare-recipients...

Would you be in favor of adding a time-limit to welfare eligibility to disincentivize long-term reliance on welfare?
In Australia too - most people I know just buy undeclared cigarettes. Almost all international students that travel into the country bring a bunch of cartons with them and sell them at $10-$15/packet. It's a way for the international students to make a bit more money given how fucked over they are by the lack of working rights they have, coupled with the ridiculously high cost of living and expensive education costs.

All the price raising on tobacco has done is push revenue into the black market, invent crimes from nothing and turn otherwise honest people into criminals.

> When a video is edited “in bad faith” we hear about it pretty quickly, when a video is edited in good faith (removing inaccurate information, ads, personal information) do we really care?

Why do we need to rely on "hearing about it pretty quickly" when Youtube can say up front that it's been modified. The cost to doing this is extremely low.

On one extreme you have total versioning of videos which strips the ability to make good faith edits. On the other hand you have the current state which enables deceit. I don't see how a history of timestamps has any impact on the good faith edits you mention.
Air pollution: a global problem needs local fixes
no, i still have to earn money first.

most startups fail. the likelyhood that the earned equity will be enough to kickstart my own project years later is to small to be worth the risk.

if i join someone for equity, then it has to be a project that i am actually interested in enough that i'd start it on my own if i had the opportunity.

so it's not my project vs your project but it is my interests vs your interests. if our interests align, i'll join you, even for equity only.

however at the end of the day i still have to put food on the table, so if you are looking for 100% commitment, i simply can't afford that.

i was part of a startup based on that premise. it failed because noone could put in enough time, and the founder rejected the idea to finance ourselves with consulting work believing that if we did that we'd never get to work on the startup because we'd be busy building up a consulting firm.

i don't believe that's true, because somehow i manage to make a living from consulting and still have time to work on my project.

it's all about priorities.

I wonder whether it’s price discovery that controls price. It’s hard deny service for a price you’re already accepting/accepted elsewhere.
I’d be surprised if anyone takes marijuana for medical purposes by smoking it. Try visiting somewhere like seattle where it’s legal - you can get it in useful forms like oils or tinctures that get dispensed out of a dropper, or you can buy e.g chocolates with a defined strength per piece.

Looking at that code, it looks like it's working on a tree of some sort, but what kind? Something to do with Sem and State and Yo, I guess. At a wild guess, it's something to do with ASTs and DSLs or similar. But code that is dramatically inscrutable without metric shit tonnes of context, is bad code.

The dashcam will record into a, say, 5-minute buffer until the accelerometer registers a high value, at which point it starts writing into a new file (so the buffer becomes a permanent record of the 5 minutes prior to the incident).

That's one way to implement it, one can come up with many others.
Others have said that. I remember playing with BC.exe and the free DJGPP + Allegro library to make games at that time... oh man those were the days to make games, it was romantic (and I was in secondary school). Too bad I was not in an environment to be nurtured.
The immutability illusion was busted for me when SpaceX edited one of their video live-streams. Their intent was harmless in that they corrected a split-screen that was showing the same camera feed in both windows, IIRC.

However, when you visit that video's youtube page, the video date was listed as something like "Live-streamed on ...", with no note of it being edited. You are given the impression that what you are about to view is what was streamed, when it's not.

The edited version is a better video, but don't tell me I'm watching the same thing as those who saw it live during the stream.
> Seems like a gigantic waste of effort for everyone to have to know that a bone fracture is cheapest at hospital A, but C is best for head injuries.

Imagine a world where prices are openly advertised, and as a result they start to drop.

Take laser eye surgery as an example. Prices are insanely competitive! They have been going down for years, and equipment manufacturers have been hard at work making more reliable and cheaper to operate equipment that has less side effects!

We have a free market for literally curing blindness and it works really well.

Now take more urgent but not life threatening cases. Last couple times I broke something, it was of the "well that sucks and it is kind of swollen but whatever" type, and I got to choose where to get an X-Ray at.

That is a perfect case where open pricing would drive the market price down and save me money.

As another example, physical therapy prices are often advertised on the open market. So are therapeutic massage prices. Both are price competitive markets.

Sure life threatening emergencies will still be subject to price gouging, but if the entire medical system is running more efficiently then even emergency services may see a reduction in costs in places. Maybe not for the trauma center, but for the hospital stay outside the ICU, why not?
Yeah, so then let's eliminate the next 100, and so on and so forth until everyone is penniless.

I think this breaks YouTube's timestamped ("share at") links. So, if a user shares a timestamp link (?t=55), and then the creator cuts X seconds from the beginning of the video, the timestamp link will start X seconds after the user intended it to.

A product change that's this ill-considered, half-baked, consequential, and poorly communicated makes me wonder what the UX design process looks like at YouTube.
I’m for regulating this as stringently as for regular cigs... but it’s weird... they don’t bother addicts injecting, they provide needles and let them shoot up, no problem. But you wanna vape? Nah!

If they think banning is a solution to vaping and it’ll be successful, why not ban syringes —I’m sure they’re equally effective.
Right now it is 1 year, plus another 3 years of filler. We could make it 5 with another year of filler, but I don't think that would help. Suppose we mandate another year worth of classes: Ancient Mesopotamian Art, Intersectionality in Sports, Flute Performance, Zoology, Sexual Development in the Infant, Ballroom Dance, French Existentialism, Phlebotomy, Astronomy, History of Jazz. Does this help? We already have 3 years of it.

Chains of prerequisites are long enough that we might need 2 years by the calendar, but there is only 1 year worth of material. Going half-time for 2 years would provide the same benefit as the modern American 4-year degree.
It's also worth noting that the unpopularity of cigarettes preceded the rise of vaping by several years. So it felt like the problem was finally being solved for a while.
