I have a few issues with how Audible subscriptions work:

• The cancellation process requires many more clicks. If your process is to subscribe → buy → cancel each time, this gets very annoying.

• You can't buy additional credits without outright changing your overall subscription plan.

• If you cancel your plan, you immediately forfeit any unused credits.
If you have a specific problem that you believe will be solved by the migration, seriously investigate the possibility of migrating. This is a big change, and it's likely to both solve and create problems; take it slow and steady, and keep your abort options open as long as possible.
The best part of moving to PostgreSQL is that it is sort of the defacto standard wire protocol for relational databases now and that enables you to "grow into" something like CockroachDB down the line when you need that sort of scale.
This is great I'm happy there are so many projects going using machine learning with coding. Since I plan on applying ML in a future project for coding on phones and other mobile devices.

I'll have a few examples to learn from.
I'd only support what Amazon is doing if the converse were true: by choosing not to be paid, I'm guaranteed that I won't be tracked. That does not seem to be the case here:
"Amazon is also fine paying nothing for the data: New customers only get the $10 credit if they install the assistant from a particular landing page ..."

Sadly I'm becoming steadily more convinced that I know the answer.

The irony is, if humans dealt with reality on a rational basis we'd have far fewer of these sunny sci-fi articles, but a vastly better chance of them actually happening.
Hard to tell if your are intentionally or not ignoring the fact that code as a whole serves a specific purpose, and that purpose can itself be very political. Either way, this is an incredibly embarrassing response.
Yes one time, I joined a startup that was 3 months old that had used MySQL, a lot of the queries had manual joins that could be solved with CTE/recursion. We also had good use for function indexes, partial indexes, materialized views.

Is it worth it? In our case, BIG YES. But most of the times I don't think it would be. Migrating data isn't that big of a job, but rewriting the queries are. If you use an ORM for that majority of the queries the switch may be simple.
nobody uses analog audio out in an HTPC use case. You send digital audio streams out the HDMI port.

Even a low end external ADC is going to greatly outperform anything RPi could ship onboard for a reasonable cost, and even if they did ship something onboard, at this point it would almost certainly just be a USB ADC, but onboard.
Stable how? I can see mainland China being stable through its authoritarian government for the moment but the Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Uighur situations at the moment don't exactly scream "long term stability" to me.

If you're looking into reducing BP, the strongest correlation is with body mass. If you have the margin to lose weight, that should be the primary approach. The correlation is roughly 1mmHg per Kg in systolic BP. Diastolic BP drops less per Kg, but is also affected.

There is also a strong correlation with height, but I don't advise losing height :-)
This doesn't bother the Apache Software Foundation. So long as a project is able to follow the "Apache Way" (licensing, treatment of source artifacts, organizational structure of project members and community, etc.), then the project can exist in the ASF without conflict of other similar projects.

The ASF's mission is not focused on bringing one best-of-breed product in every category. More, the ASF is focused on the stewardship and delivery of the software. They are more interested in the organization and community surrounding the project than the code itself.

And Tesla has cut corners with engineering decisions: https://www.thedrive.com/tech/27989/teslas-screen-saga-shows...

The article seems to start from the premise that a high daily intake of Vitamin D helps cancer patients fight cancer (based on the linked studies), and from that it concludes that all of us should also increase our daily intake of vitamin D.

But I do not have cancer.

The studies do not explain the effects of high doses of vitamin D on an otherwise healthy person, let alone one that gets enough UVB exposure to produce sufficient vitamin D (essentially anyone near the equator) and already "[reduces their] risk for cancer by not smoking and by avoiding alcohol, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and eating an excellent diet with fruits, vegetables, whole grains".
> Change from inside has a very poor track record.

Has it? Or is it just less visible because it happens over a decade or two? Germany's left wing and their March Through The Institutions comes to mind as a very successful change from inside.
I think you only need them if you want to overclock.

Just because someone's selling something, doesnt mean you need to buy it.
Good article, I wonder if the solution is something akin the Amazon store.... you just hop in, and perhaps tag you card, either in the station, or inside the train/bus, which contains some kind of (one way) hash of your face....

The card buying process can be anonymous, and the hash is a card/face combination, (i.e. you can't repro the hash, unless you have both).

The card is only needed for tourist/people that want privacy. For the rest, you can just create an account, and have money deducted automatically when you step in a train. No tagging necessary.

This requires: 1. Great face recognition. 2. Strict privacy rules 3. People being ok with it
Blogging: From Jekyll to Zola
Hello peconn,

This is right, although you could replace KontSkip(kont) with just kont. Defunctionalization does not just "move the recursion from one place to another." Rather, it doesn't change the recursion at all.

Also, your example is actually harder than the one in the talk, because it can involve an arbitrary amount of work after the last call to my_filter_recursive.

Like in the example in the talk, you still need merge the various calls to apply, and use tail-call elimination.

Merging:

def apply(kont, acc):
if isinstance(kont, KontAdd):
apply(kont.kont, [kont.var] + acc)
else:
print(acc)

You will now actually need two levels of tail-call elimination because there are two recursions, rather than one as in the example in the talk. apply becomes this:

def apply(kont, acc):
while True:
if isinstance(kont, KontAdd):
kont = kont.kont
acc = [kont.var] + acc
else:
print(acc)
break

You can then inline this into my_filter_cps and do tail-call elimination again.

def my_filter_defun(l, f, kont):
while True:
if l:
x, *xs = l
if f(x):
l = xs
kont = KontAdd(x, kont)
else:
l = xs
else:
acc = []
while True:
if isinstance(kont, KontAdd):
kont = kont.kont
acc = [kont.var] + acc
else:
print(acc)
break
That site's moto should be:

I much agree with this response. The term that I've heard to summarize all of the above is "semantic layer". That layer will run in the warehouse, vs. some external dashboard tool.
How Baumol got the insight, from his obituary in the WSJ (https://www.wsj.com/articles/baumol-diagnosed-the-disease-of... [paywall]):

"Dr. Baumol’s insight in the 1960s was that costs inevitably rise fastest for things that are difficult to automate, including medical care, garbage collection and the live performance of a Mozart string quartet.

It came to him in the middle of the night.

“It was 4 in the morning,” he recalled in an oral history. “I suddenly woke up and said I know why those costs are going up! I got up, wrote down a few notes, and went to sleep again.” His theory became known as Baumol’s Cost Disease."
sure! lets do this exercise.

1. I did a google search of "site:news.ycombinator.com Foxconn in Wisconsin", and opened the top 3 links.

2. first link: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19037625. The top comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19038615) seems to be about cronyism and corruption in the terms offered to Foxconn by the Wisconsis government? I could be a bit off, i haven't followed that story closely. But, and this is important, its not about generalized corruption, its about corruption on this Foxconn deal!

3. second link: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18328772. here the top comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18329445) is directly quoting the article about Foxconn getting exemptions from the environmental laws in Wisconsin. This is directly relevant to the article posted, again not about generic environmental concerns.

4. third link https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19630358. This one doesn't have much commentary, but here we see irrelevant comments which are not directly tied to the article, which are much in the vein of the original comment above.

Does that help clarify my position, and why comments of this nature are not helpful? Its totally fine to bring up environmental/social/political concerns, if they are relevant. They are not in this case.
Could you elaborate on what you mean by "browser-friendly"?

I would assume you actually meant "accessible and mobile-friendly", in which case the answer to that is generally "nothing does that". You need frameworks or libraries (not languages or compilers) if you want something that just does it for you.
20 years? I've seen what happens to walmart electrical tape in a single summer in a car in the sun. And its been pointed out that the tape doesn't actually hold the "triple-cam" in place, just the wire connectors (implying this is less of problem?).

If it were my car, (and its so unimportant) than I'd vastly prefer nothing over Walmart tape. The tape is not going to do anything and its going to make a sticky mess. Tesla apologetics aside, this is not ok and I'm sticking to that.

The Wikipedia "Tesla, Inc." and "History of Tesla, Inc." pages both say explicitly that the company was founded in July 2003 by two other people and that Musk joined in February 2004. Is that wrong? If not, what retconning do you see on Wikipedia?

Money (paying someone) is not even the biggest issue... How can you trust such an employee (their work output, and that they won't attempt to internally sabotage the company)? I mean, noone is entirely trustwortht ("trust but verify") but when the probability rises from a few percentage points to nearly 100%, maybe it's time to part ways...

> The rate of such incidents makes me wonder whether there are good reasons for so many websites not to use CloudFlare

Not using something that cannot help in such situations is a good reason or even merely sanity. The problem is websites want to feed you some cookies and generate pages dynamically for each visitor, so things like full page caching don't just work, they require special considerations. At which point setting up such set-cookie stripping caching on the webserver would solve the problem anyway.
Hmmm ...Why is this being downvoted?

From my perspective (linguistic anthropology), they’re not actually all that close. Most historical “queens” (which have that label applied to them by modern English speakers) were not rulers (and we have a separate term, “queen regnant”, for that) but rather the gender dual to the male “royal consort.” It was only in recent history where you see examples of “equal-opportunity” monarchies that could have either a male or female monarch of equal power, and thus usages of “queen” to denote those monarchs.

Thus—given that we’re defining words based on their centroids of usage in a historical corpus—if a woman is a monarch of a kingdom, “king” is a tighter historical fit to describe her role than “queen” is.
So is food, sex, etc.

But having a Skinner box and other psychological tricks that empty your wallet is a serious problem. An addicting game that doesn't extract money wastes your time, granted, but an addicting game that extracts money can leave you homeless, without a job and on the street.

Equating the two is like saying - all drugs are the same when one drug can leave you with a slight migraine while other kills if you take a mg more than the recommended dose.
Seems like the caller's interest should trump that of the victims' families, and doing so could make the system safer.

If you are taking drugs with someone and they look like they are dying it should definitely be safe for you to call 911, even if you are participating, or are somewhere you shouldn't be, or don't have a visa, or whatever.

If you break into a building, perhaps to steal, and your companion falls and breaks a limb you should definitely be able to call 911 (bad luck for your companion who will surely be arrested though).

A person's heart stops, you call 911, the try CPR and they die anyway (well, they're already "dead" if you're doing CPR). You shouldn't have any liability.

Grand juries and review boards could still confidentially review 911 calls for cases like this, where the family fears malpractice by the first responders.

This is no different for why TSA should not screen for drugs or anything but weapons that could threaten a flight; why people not already in the court system should not be arrested in courthouses (or nearby). Why people who are here illegally should get vaccines and drivers' licenses. What seems "unfair" can actually promote the public welfare.
What I said does not support the that accusation. Are you saying a business does not want to own 100% of the market? Are you disagreeing with the "force" verbiage?
For others reading, there are still important biases these models pick up (for a variety of reasons I won't go into). The takeaway here is that some of the evidence you've heard about isn't really evidence, not that the biases aren't there.

I don't think Mars and Earth would go to war because of the mutually assured destruction (kinetic weapons such as asteroids). More likely they would fight proxy wars for resources / control of moons etc. This is similar to how the US/USSR on Earth struggled for supremacy.

I might be able to help you with jmp.S since I know SPARC assembler.

By doing builds on Solaris, you are ensuring your code remains clean and honest because Solaris and illumos are reference implementations of just about any open standard imaginable. If it works there, it's highly probable that the code is standards compliant.

For debugging, you can use dbx, which comes included with Sun Studio, which is a gratis download. If you compile with GCC, you'll have to use gdb. At least I couldn't figure out what Sun engineers did to their version of GCC to make it emit DWARF 2 debugging format.
I’m not even disagreeing with you! “Supercar” is obviously a loaded term. I would never expect a fully stock $54k product to meet that label. IMO, if it’s not six figures it’s by definition excluded from even being considered in that group.

But 1:47 is with stock tires even. I don't know where you draw the line, if you are upgrading suspension parts and not just tires, rotors, and pads, but that’s still pretty basic kit to see 1:37, which does make it competitive with some supercars.

I’d like to see a time with TM3P just with racing tires, pads, and rotors, but stock suspension, if it can beat 1:40 on that chart.

By most accounts, the stock TM3P is ahead of the BMW M3 on the track, not just drag. It’s not a supercar, but it is the most super car you can get for $54k!
Google doesn’t really have a “motto” or “corporate philosophy” publicly available anymore.

Wow, my Model 3 has been serviced for both the issues mentioned in the article: a loose connection in the 12v subsystem (which completely locked me out of the car and required a tow!) and moisture in one of my tail lights.

Sorry, I wasn't using the term imprecisely. Thank you for the correction.
>In the analysis of the entire 25,000-person group, the risk of cancer was not significantly reduced. However, evidently higher vitamin D levels take time to have an effect, because when the data from the first one or two years were omitted, there was a 25% significant reduction in the all-cancer mortality rate.

The original article [0] mentions the "exclude early years" analysis was post hoc. This wasn't a formal result, but it is a good idea for a new experiment. Same with the first study mentioned. It would be cool if the hazard decrease showed up in a larger study, but a confidence interval of 0% to 90% isn't much to rely on.

+1 on learning by doing. And for me at least it's definitely a "use it or lose it" kind of thing. If I don't work with a given language for more than a month, when I get back to it I'll have to look up basic syntax for a few days until I pick it back up. Though I find this is less of an issue as you learn more and more languages.

It's particularly weird, because the people who're talking about Tesla using tape are the ones saying "it's heat shrink tape, guys, nothing to see here".

Whereas the people reporting the tape are saying it's standard electrical tape, used to hold cracked pieces of plastic together.
Are the safest though? I know that there are ICE cars witht eh engine at the back, and there are cars that are very safe in crash tests.

So your answer is not responding at my questions, I know there are probably cars that are for sure less safe then Tesla
