This sounds like the typical experience with insurance companies...
Interestingly it also became so popular it led to further memes [1]

I can practically hear the "xD" at the end of that statement.
Great idea, not sure why you're bored down. The slow as shit FDA has killed more people than Stalin.
Ah will definitely check Gitlab's wiki(:
Yep, your comment is underrated. Employees need to protest though.. these rising deductibles and coinsurance out of pocket costs are getting out of hand.
> Juust so you are aware, this all extends far beyond questions of race, not sure why you are so focused on that, but it's probably pretty telling.

Just so you are aware, everything is racist in the news today. If you go to any major news site I promise you will find some article about Trump or his supporters being racist. Trump says things about Baltimore, media calls him racist, why is that? Is that telling? Is calling out this guy for having the worst district really that bad? https://i.redd.it/wlf72xth8gd31.jpg

In your version of the US, the Civil Rights Act should be forever expanded to include more and more oppressed groups, whereas in my version of the US the Civil Rights Act should be a universal truth. I don't think it's fair that clubs in Vegas can charge men and women different prices, but is there a movement for that? Does that ever make the news? Of course not. I'm being discriminated against based on my gender but since I don't have protected status that's ok. Instead, I think any discrimination based on physical features should not be allowed unless it somehow impacted their ability to perform a job. (IE ok to say no to person in wheelchair for UPS job)

> "founding fathers already gave us ways to protect the minority's rights via the judicial system...".

If you feel oppressed, you can sue and have your case adjudicated in court. In your system, only those who have protected status have grounds for a lawsuit, therefore people are no longer equal in the eyes of the law. In my system, valid claims of discrimination can be herd regardless of protected status. I would also impose a fine for losing to discourage frivolous lawsuits. If that's too burdensome then that's why we have the ACLU.

I want to get rid of classes. I want people to associate because of common interests not out of mutual dislike. I want to eliminate all differences between citizens under the eyes of the law. I just think it's deeply flawed to think that if you pass enough protection laws suddenly the people that inflict the so-called "oppression" will have a change of heart. You can only hope to do that by highlighting peoples similaries instead of their differences. Conversely, if your goal is to get people to hate each other, you should constantly point out there differences, something the modern media does a fantastic job at.
We treat every disease with poison. The disease is alive, and we want to kill it. That's all poison is.

For reference, "antibiotic" means "contrary to life".

We also treat cancer with surgery, the only problem being that, like the poison, it doesn't really work.
Wtf are you doing about it? Commenting on hackernews ain't solving anything.
I think you're selling yourself short. In your 20s, you have a lot less mental baggage to deal with, on so many levels. This is a good thing when you need to work hard (which we all did when we were young :) ).

Even if you can only work 6-7 hours a day now, you're most definitely spending that time a lot more efficiently than you did a decade ago. You don't need to keep more information in your head at the moment because you have decades of wisdom guiding your decisions.

It's a very new thing. Pretrained ImageNet models were first released around 2011. Pretrained transformer models have only been released recently.

Also, transformers are only useful for short text, not full documents (AFAIK).
Truss | Software Engineer, Delivery Manager, govsales Project Manager | San Francisco or DISTRIBUTED| https://truss.works

Truss solves complex technical problems for the private sector and government. We helped rebuild Healthcare.gov after its public failure in 2013. We seek the highest standard both in terms of the technology we build, and the way we run our company. We'd love to chat with you.

We are a software consultancy known for pragmatism, autonomy, expertise, and trust. We build strong relationships with our clients, contractors, and employees and we believe that this is fundamental to doing great work. As a Truss engineer you will facilitate bringing Truss values (https://truss.works/values/) to those truly trying to make a difference in our government, and enable them to understand what their citizens actually need rather than implementing a perceived solution.

Here are some of the things we care about:
* Great communication! Including thoughtful listening skills, the ability to express complex ideas clearly and succinctly, and the ability to communicate well in writing
* The ability to deal well with ambiguity and act with autonomy
* Technology-agnostic and pragmatic engineering sensibility, focused on solving key problems for the customer, not the tools
* Proficiency in at least one commonly used programming language, such as Python, Ruby, Go, Javascript, Java, etc.
* Experience deploying at least one application that other people use
* Have held at least one engineering position post-education
* Initiative, curiosity, a bias for action, and a problem-solving attitude

We expect all Truss engineers to consistently develop new skills, and cross-train into new disciplines outside of their current areas of expertise.

Could it be possible to use this mechanism to create a type of X-ray or gamma ray camera? Perhaps using a lead disc.
That’s not usually how these supplier partnerships work.

Loon needed a balloon which was probably not available off the shelf. They paid a certain amount of money to get someone to build balloons to their specification which probably involved a great deal of R&D,
manufacturing tooling, real world testing, etc.

Because Google didn’t develop the technology in-house, and perhaps as a consequence of how the contract was written, we cannot say how much of the technology developed for Loon could have ended up here, and if or whether Loon should have paid more for exclusivity or restrictions on how that R&D could be used, or if in fact Loon paid a lot less specifically because the supplier was able to defray development costs through expected future military applications.

Or maybe the tech really was off the shelf and destined for military use and Loon just happened to use the same thing for their own Good Samaritan project.

However, several of Google’s balloons crashed to Earth so it’s a pretty good bet that they were paying for prototypes and significant R&D was going into the balloons.
The principle reason for favoring this tree (not arguing whether it's good or bad) is the vastly superior rate of carbon sequestration. Most trees are (apparently, just according to the article) only capable of sequestering 1.1-9.5 tonnes of carbon per acre per year, this type can apparently take up more than 100 tonnes per acre per year.
I’ve noticed that there is always a lack of trees in impoverished areas. It almost seems like the trees are deliberately cut down in favor of concrete in areas designated.
Someone would have to pay a kernel developer to modify LineageOS (or a similar project) to be oriented towards multiple concurrent instances of the same app, spoofing device IDs, identifying when an app needs attention, etc.

But people tend towards short sightedness and selfishness, so no one is going to spend a few thousand dollars for a product that would take months to produce.
It looks like a simple typo, double hitting the r. I would contact a couple people from the website to alert them to the error.

I've always assumed thats because trees can be time consuming, take a lot of space and can be expensive to maintain. Essentially, in a city, they are a luxury.

Yeah those numbers seem really good - $25,000 invested over 8-12 years results in $1,423,125 profits of which you get 25% ($355,781). If those kinds of returns were really there wouldn't people quickly saturate the market, devaluing the lumber and breaking the model?
Asking for damages of only $15,000 ?

That seems quite low, are they hoping Tesla will just settle without fighting it since the plaintiffs know their case is weak?
This is measuring innovation by how big a spender you are. Maybe that isn't a good metric? It seems likely that whatever other companies you consider innovative also aren't spending hundreds of billions on their ideas.
Whenever talking about UI animations it's important to observe the Best Practices for Response Times and Latency [1] especially if the animation is in addition to a network request. Latency over 300ms might result in a degraded user experience depending on the situation.

Please define your "tier 1 cities/suburbs" and why they are "tier 1".
Code size suffered because the need to sanitize the ES register to access the directories (PUSH CS + POP ES) but balanced because I made bootOS to call its own services (3-byte CALL is now 2-byte INT) and fortunately IRET is same size as RET. The most difficult thing was to return the carry flag, but the RCL instruction saved me, I'm glad the 8088 processor auto-uses SS when using BP addressing. At some point I was closer to write in paper the segment dependancies along code paths because it's pretty hard to track. Timing I think isn't so important at this moment.
Correct. But if you touched the energized piece of metal with one hand and accidentally touched a grounded conductor with the other hand, you'd be dead. This is why in the rare circumstances when I have to work on an energized high-voltage circuit (don't do this!) I observe the "keep one hand in your pocket" rule.

You're assuming zero real interest investment growth over 30 years. I totally agree with stacking as much as humanly possible, but that's not a realistic assumption, unless we have worldwide zero economic growth for a third of a century.
Generally the higher the voltage you distribute, the lower the current in the wires, allowing you to use thinner wire and reducing I^2R losses.

With this said, having multiple point of load converters may have impacts on efficiency and will add to the cost of the system.
Agreed. It plays right into China's hands because very, very few nations have the size to deal with China. Smaller countries need to band together to negotiate with China as a group. China's foreign policy has always favored bilateral deals rather than dealing with groups of countries because their scale favors them.

I feel the same as you about the TPP. The implementation might not have been great but the idea was good. We need to band together with our smaller allies to negotiate effectively with China.
Watching this video (myth #3) brings up a bit of a semantic peeve. And that peeve begins with how the NEC narrowly defines the term "grounding" as only applying to the electrical system itself. Then electricians apply that narrow definition to every use of the term, acting like someone is wrong because they say they're "grounding" something by hooking up it up to an EGC.

But don't worry, they'll teach you this special term "bonding" that refers to the latter. Except it doesn't. I already used a synonym of "bonding" - "hooking up". You "bond" the black wire to the gold terminal on a receptacle by tightening the screw.

> Basically, bond everything together if it can carry a charge

It is perfectly fine to say that you are grounding those things together. Connecting something to an EGC is indeed "grounding it" - just not in NEC land which is focused on getting the EGC grounded. If you say "this washing machine needs to be better grounded", that doesn't mean it needs an immediate connection to earth, but is rather talking about its path to earth via the building's electrical system.

The test for e.g. programming could be "build a program to do X", where X is determined on the spot, and you have e.g. 6 hours to do it on premise...

Memorization wont help with that...

Ten seconds from engaging AutoPilot on a drive where AutoPilot had not been used at all previously prior to that point.

I don’t know how long the drive was, or how long the car had been on the highway up until that point. But this is somewhat suggesting that the driver Jeremy Banner may have activated AutoPilot in this case to deal with something else going on in the car at the same time, and was not looking out the window as the Tesla approached and ultimately crashed under the tractor-trailer. I think we do know that there was no attempt by the driver at all to brake or steer leading up to the crash.

There is a physical camera above the rear-view mirror, but past statements by Tesla (which have been corroborated by Tesla owners who have jailbroken their cars and analyzed the software) is that the “selfie” camera is not even initialized and never records footage, so while there may be footage of the approach and crash, there likely does not exist footage inside the vehicle. I read in a different article that the plaintiff is seeking discovery of this footage claiming
it does exist. The stated purpose of the camera is in the future when the car is being used as a RoboTaxi.
As the article notes, the driver killed in this case died in circumstances to similar to the very first driver killed using Autopilot in 2016 [0]: driving into the side of a tractor trailer. However, back then, Tesla implied that the Model S cameras may not have seen the tractor trailer because of the lighting conditions:

> Neither Autopilot nor the driver noticed the white side of the tractor trailer against a brightly lit sky, so the brake was not applied.

The trailer in this recent case was also white (not sure what the lighting conditions were). Regardless of whether it is legally the driver's fault, how can AP be making what seems to be the same exact error 3 years ago when Musk says Telsa's full self-driving will be ready in 2020? White trailers are not exactly an edge-case on U.S. roads.

(worth noting that in 2016, Tesla's AP was built by Mobileye; now it is in-house)

But plateaus are local. Usually they happen because you don't know how to progress anymore. Once you figure that out you jump ahead again. I think with age it is easier to become complacent and just say "this is enough". Which there's nothing wrong with that. But I think it is different than hitting a real ceiling. You're not at peak.
Technically, the makers of Whatsapp had nothing to do with Facebook.

Yet it has a lot to do with Calico, another Alphabet company.
In industrial and commercial settings, there are "Lockout/Tagout" rules. These prevent -- either through policy or physical means -- somebody from accidentally flipping a breaker back on when maintenance is occurring.
Even Socrates was complaining about the next generation:

"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."
The plaintiffs allege "more than" $15,000 in damages. The $15,000 figure is likely just a jurisdictional minimum. In other words, they need to allege damages over that amount in order to stay out of small claims court or something similar (am a lawyer--never practiced in Florida, but this would make sense). It's almost certainly not their full request, and they'll ask for much more at trial.
That would raise the value of their currency and make their exports less competitive.
I think that's much more true of large companies than small ones. At a small company, the engineers are more likely to be involved in the hiring process, and (unless they're very inexperienced themselves) they'll have a better sense for how skills translate.

For example, on my team, we're writing most of our new code in Kotlin. But even though the language has now been around for the better part of a decade, we regard prior Kotlin experience as only a very slight nice-to-have when we're evaluating someone. If you've programmed in Java or Scala or C# or C++ or pretty much any other statically-typed language, you'll pick it up quickly enough that the time to get productive in Kotlin will be dwarfed by the time to get familiar with our code base.

What we do usually filter out, though, is monoglots. If you have 10 years of experience and have only ever done, say, Ruby on Rails development, you will probably not have the breadth of engineering perspective to succeed on our team. But if you've done RoR as well as something else that's dramatically different, that's fine. We would probably even filter out a Kotlin monoglot in the unlikely event we ever came across one.
The article says that the family is seeking "more than $15,000 in damages", and does not mention a cap. $15,000 is the threshold for a civil suit in Florida to move beyond small-claims court:

It didn’t used to be. When you set up a bucket with public read access, you might also decide to give other people on your team write access to the bucket. AWS conveniently provided an All Users option for this.

Except it wasn’t “All Users in your AWS account”, it literally meant ALL USERS of AWS. Disaster. This led to the same problems as this Jira issue.

AWS changed it so that’s no longer an option. Atlassian should do the same.
It wasn't meant to be a convincing argument to the contrary - merely a contrasting story.

And certainly if I had a rare cancer I would rather be in the Mayo Clinic, as long as my insurance was all lined up.

Certainly these are difficult problems to grapple with, and bewildering to people outside the US - the current situation and also the extreme proposals currently being touted.
Zuck does not care of how your think of the company now. The plan here is to blur the lines between the services so he can continue the ongoing quest to hoover all data about you into one place. If it’s all “... by Facebook” people will eventually stop thinking it’s wrong for their messages to feed into an ad platform.
Sure. All of those companies are over 20 years old, so it's not surprising they'd have codebases in a language that was very hot early on in their lifespans. There was a also crapload of COBOL out there for decades after new companies turned away from it. There is still a fair bit.
Um, no. My original comment explained, their cash prices are higher than the prices through insurance. (Also there's no single "insurance price", they're different for each plan they accept.)

And honestly, that's supposed to be one of the points of insurance prices, that they negotiate prices down by providing volume.

So there are clearly different economic factors at play, in different doctor's offices and hospitals. I'm just making the point it's not always the case that the cash price is cheaper -- it can be more.

I don't need to "think about it", it's just the facts.
Worked about 10 years for a company named Appriss - https://appriss.com - no real comment there other than to share the founding CEO used to say the board was presented with a bunch of names "and picked the worst one".

No real comment other than that, but nostalgia alone will make me play with this, so thanks for sharing.
I use mongodb, I found it is quick for prototyping. But I'm worried about race conditions, because I think its transaction is limited. But for my current stage (MVP), it seems to be fine.

I might eventually switch to postgresql, but I don't know how to deal with data migration once my database changes. I want the program design to be stabilized first.

I will not use firebase, it will be very expensive. I have tried aws lambda once to create myself an email redirect service. I found it hard to debug.
Honestly I don't see how we could use the cloud version unless we could at least lock it down the same way we do behind a firewall; VPN or office only.

Guess it's on the roadmap, like everything else.
