Part of the problem here too is that we may be dealing with more than one data set. If there is enough information overlap in those sets then you could map a record from one set to another. In that situation you'd have more data about each person, reducing the k-anonymity of the combined data sets to below the k-anonymity of either individual data set.

That concerns me most around places that process data for other companies (e.g., Cambridge Analytics, Facebook, Google, Amazon). These places could have access to many different data sets relating to a person, and could potentially combine these data sets to uniquely identify a single individual.

I recently looked at something that I gave a fake zip, birth date, and gender. Based on statistical probabilities it gave a 68% chance of a large data set having 1-anonymity. Wasn't clear what they were considering large, so could be bogus, but if true imagine what could easily be done with 10+ unique fields (e.g., zip, birthdate, gender, married?, # of children, ever smoked?, deductible amount, diabetes?, profession, BMI).

The earlier poster is right, only aggregate data is truly anonymous.
Ew, gross.

Crates.io is already a security trainwreck in progress. Do we really need to add even more attack vectors?

It's also solving a non-problem. I modify source code downloaded from crates.io zero times per day, so I compile each crate only once. Compile times matter for code I write myself: I modify (and therefore compile) that code dozens of times per day.

The stolen cars thing seems to be the goto for making these okay in places. People think about a car being stolen or carjacked and want the masked armed robbers taken out. However I believe most of the 'stolen cars' they are actually looking for and finding are cars where someone is being in their car payments and a repo notice gets sent out..

technically the car is stolen from the place that holds the note.. but I don't think the malls and other places that have installed these and sold the data are really wanting to put our press releases about how many broke people late on their payments they turned over to repo men/women..

They used that excuse to put some in at the airport near here, but I have second hand knowledge that they have been used to Id other people and investigate other things, so that data is not in a read - only - plates put into the db that are stolen and get info back, it's db data that is there and searchable shareable for other reasons, most the general public may never know.

Compensation, seniority level and review are the most common “Confidential” category but they are typically marked as “personal and confidential”.

Heat pumps transfer heat.

In the summer they take heat from inside a building, and dump it outside. In the winter, they extract heat from the outside air and send it inside.

The same unit does both heating and cooling.

You also do not need to renovate a home as much to install them. Traditionally air ducts are often used for a lot of HVAC, and they can sometimes be a hassle to retrofit into older buildings. Heat pumps using ~1-2cm pipes between the external compressor and internal 'heads' to move the heat, so it's a lot easier to run that pipe (like plumbing) than a much larger air duct.

I mean there are 3 people (as far as they know) with this specific mutation. Time, money, and capable scientists are limited. Allocating these resources efficiently means that the more rare disease don't get as much attention, but this also means that you're saving more people. Just not those with the rare conditions.

From the article

> The rare label is wrong and limits progress. These are not rare. These are genetic and have the same root cause. We need a systematic, platform-driven approach to fix these typos. We need a spell check.

Yes, there are millions with some mutation. But changing around mutations needs to go through some form of medical process to see if it's safe. The current processes are there because historically there has been a lot of abuse for profit. We can't just platform allow any genetic editing. Some of these edits might be dangerous.

No instructions on how/where to reply so here you go!

1. What is your mail client?

Lumail. Console based. lumail.org / github.com/lumail/lumail

2. Can you give me plain english instructions for composing plaintext emails by default?

Lumail is a console-based client, much like mutt. To compose an email your editor is launched. If no editor is configured vim will be used.

Plaintext composition is the only thing that is supported.

3. Does it hard-wrap your plaintext emails at 72 columns?

The mail client doesn't, since it opens a temporary file with your configured editor. You could configure your editor to enable/disable wrapping ..

4. Does it support format=flowed?

As above.

5. When replying to a message, does it put your reply above or below the quoted message you're repying to by default? Can you change this setting? How?

The editor opens a temporary file into which the quoted body of the mail you're replying to has been placed.

I configure my editor to be `vim +/^$ ++1` which puts the cursor above the mail, but below the headers.

You could do something similar to place the cursor at the bottom, but that would require a suitable editor-specific command to be set.

> Do I have to Ph.D in every medical science to make sure my kids get a treatment what they deserve?

When you live in a society you have duties and rights. We count on each other. Some people gets an education with help and resources of society and then there is an expectation for them to take responsibility and do their part. That is expected from everybody whatever your role, studies or background.

You are right that this social contract seems broken. That we are told that everyone is on their own and if you don't profit as much as possible from the system you are a sucker. That cheaters are right. This doesn't work on the long run. Too much cheaters in a society and it is doomed to fail.

We should take care of ourselves and others. We have rights and we should be willing to fulfill our duties. And have expectations on others to do the same.

That forgets another variable - efficency of production. The entire reason small anything cannot compete is economies of scale vs input of some sort fundamentally.

Thinking localism or pastoral will solve exploitation is not only naive but historically illiterate. Bronze age slavery was dubiously an improvement over genocide.

> And this is an extremely minor example of corporate totalitarianism

Not being allowed on a private platform is not an example of totalitarianism. Not even an extremely minor one. I think its offensive comparing not being allowed on a platform to actual totalitarianism.

Twitter wasn't around before 2006. Most powerful tech companies are similarly new products. I think it's naive to assume that they're going to exist in perpetuity and somehow displace democracy with a corporate totalitarianism. Twitter will eventually fade into obscurity and irrelevance replaced by other services that draw our attention.
> Why doesn’t every language give me a batteries-included digraph ADT?

I think such a type would be less useful than you'd think, for precisely the same reason why a linked list in the stdlib is pretty much useless: almost always, you don't want the stdlib allocating nodes; you want an intrusive data structure instead.
Really, the problem is that the compiler needs to store extra data with the nodes that the stdlib can't know about, but you don't want two separate types `stdlib::GraphNode` and `compiler::ControlFlowNode` because you usually need to be able to convert between these types in both directions. (one direction can be handled by embedding one of the types in the other; but the reverse direction will require overhead for an extra pointer, or horribly unsafe pointer arithmetic)

Of course in Rust, there could still be a digraph trait and the stdlib could still provide generic algorithms.

Though it's also not so rare in compilers that nodes are members of multiple graphs simultaneously (with different edges in each, e.g. control flow nodes are typically not just part of the control flow graph, but also belong to a dominator tree). It's non-trivial to create a graph abstraction that can handle all these cases while remaining efficient (you don't want to put nodes in a HashSet just to check whether a graph algorithm already visited them), so it's not surprising that compiler developers don't bother and just write the algorithm directly for their particular data structures. In the end, most graph algorithms are only about a dozen lines, much simpler than the abstractions that would be required to re-use them across completely different graphs.

Transport of energy and food is a very small part of the global impact of getting them to customers, and dense living makes a huge impact on transportation impact. To convince people that they'd be better in straw houses, you'd need at least argumented numbers...

>I'm lean and fairly fit

Judging this is real hard since fairly fit means such different things for different people, but spending 5 hours a week at the gym isn't a big time investment. It obviously won't be getting you Mr. Olympia body, but it will make you bigger and stronger than most people.

Part of discipline is also fighting against excuses. Excuses like I don't have time to work out. I don't have time to prep my meals. That's why you need discipline.

Taking things to extreme you could wake up at 4:00 am to workout for an hour every single day. Obviously that means giving up on media consumption time during evening to get full night's of rest, but that is why you need discipline.

Not really. PageRank is a centrality measure for networks, not a sociological theory / hypothesis. It is very useful in finding the most popular nodes in a network, but it says nothing about whether this popularity is byproduct of culture or the other way around.
De novo mutations (DNM), that is new mutations, is rather high and increases stronly with the age of the father, because sperm cells are produced by continued cell divisions, where the egg cells of women are produced before birth. With the mother there is also a slight increase over time, but the number of even old mothers is lower than that of young fathers. Luckily, only a small part of the DNM occur in genes and some mutations are not even harmfull, due to how triplets of base pairs are decoded into amino-acids. And then there are also many mutations that do have an effect on the protein being produced, but that the difference does not have a great effect. For most genes there are many variants, which all leads to working proteins, some of which might work slightly better than others in some area and maybe (slightly) better in another area. (Just recently there was a news item about how humans lack a certain gene compared to other mamals, which increases our risk with respect to cardiovascular disease, but apparently also increases our ability to walk/run long distances.)
> why doesn’t every language give me a batteries-included digraph ADT, that has every feature you’d need to implement a control flow graph, such that the compiler’s CFG is just a stdlib digraph instance?

Rust does give you access to its internal data-structures on nightly. These change quite often, so you will need to update code that uses them pretty much every week.

Why doesn't many language does this in some stable form? Because that sets the internal data-structures and APIs of the compiler in stone forever, which makes it infinitely harder to improve the compiler and implement new language features.
