When we bought our house, we also went the cashier's cheque route for the downpayment, but had a tremendous surprise: the cheque bounced when the lawyers tried to deposit it! I called the bank, and a manager met me at the door. He couldn't figure out what happened, but they re-issued the cheque and it all went through...
thanks for the support!
I imagine the biggest challenge your doctors faced was diagnosis.

It's a lot easier to treat someone when you can diagnose them at a glance.
An interesting corollary to this is that 3/4 star hotels in major business centers can get away with charging $15 or $20 a day for wifi. This is because they know that a huge percentage of their travelers are on business, and putting all credit card charges through an expense reimbursement process, so they don't really care what it costs as if it were their own money.

Whereas 1/2/3 star hotels aimed at the tourist market, and even the cheapest freeway-adjacent motels like Super 8, mostly all have free wifi because if they don't, people paying out of their own pockets will go elsewhere.

> Price would be around $1300 for the computer, $300 for an eGPU enclosure, and $700ish for a Radeon R7, plus aftermarket RAM. AMD's not in a great spot for high end GPUs right now, but when the Navi 23 cards land next year it will be looking better.

I used to want an eGPU. Then I learned that you need to disable SIP in order to do so...

> This doesn't scale as well for multi GPU machine learning workloads and Apple needs to get over their shit with Nvidia, but as a lower end "modular" Mac than the $6000 cheese grater 2019, it's an option.

No one is going to wait for that hypothetical future where MacOS supports Nvidia GPUs.

It's not anemia that gives you advantage, but the gene that gives you anemia. People who carry one copy of the gene (who are heterozygous), don't have anemia but have the advantage, while people who carry two copies (are homozygous) are at a huge disadvantage due to anemia. This is a classic example of heterozygosity advantage.

That's a really cool way to write, I feel like it could be a methodology for students with ADHD (and maybe an addiction to their cell phone) to flesh out ideas for a paper and then reorganize (like a Trello column) them to get their base structure
I'd encourage you to read some of these 'papers', there is often nothing to evaluate, nothing to make predictions on. Usually, just a survey and a statistical correlation test.
Doesn't that depend on hardware? If you have a proper HDR camera that can handle overload of light and records enhanced spectrum without clipping information (those exist), I can't see how does it affect the underlying perceptual algorithms themselves and how would that make those problems suddenly unsolvable. Having a very high sampling frequency allows you to do reasonable decisions on millimeter scales instead of yard/meter ones with lower sampling frequency; if you have some clever voting/heatmap/etc. mechanism in place, you'd get higher certainty that likely scales well with further increase of sampling frequency. So the perception problem is "solved" because a simple increase of frequency eliminates the need of applying more sophisticated methods and gets you to required accuracy demanded by safety protocols.
I am sorry, but you mentioned countries and not government regimes so it wasn't clear at first.

Something similar: fees for dormant prepaid card accounts.

My guess is that even though your funds provide some sort of float to the card issuer, it's still a liability on their books that they need to somehow manage.
Certain aspects of the ongoing soap opera that is Brexit do feel like a two-minute hate.

I’ve never read 1984, but the Wikipedia page rather unfortunately matches my own subjective reactions to some of the stories: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Minutes_Hate

I know that you have been rather dismissive of the idea that it could lead to civil war, but given the rhetorical choices of various celebrities, public figures, and so on, and given the details of various reports of violent conduct recently, I think it’s going to be as bad as a population-adjusted version of the Troubles regardless of which option is ultimately taken.

This is not why I have left the UK, but it does make me glad that I have left the UK. Even though I’m having difficulty disconnecting, it is definitely easier than it would be if I was still on the island.
You seem quite knowledgeable.

You disagree with the statement that roughly the urge to avoid recertifying pilots caused Boeing to not mention MCAS even in manuals, leading directly to these deaths? Because from my pov, Boeing introduced a new failure mode (MCAS failure leading to intermittent forcing of the nose down) without any warning to the pilots.

Now maybe the pilots' standard training should have compensated, and there are obviously maintenance or training deficiencies, but Boeing also knew good and well they were selling planes to pilots with these existing training deficiencies. And should have designed a plane to be operated by real world pilots.

Very curious for your thoughts; thank you!

"The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has also addressed pronoun use with respect to transgender individuals in the workplace. In 2013, the EEOC held in Jameson v. U.S. Postal Service, EEOC Appeal No. 0120130992, 2013 WL 2368729 (May 21, 2013) that repeated, intentional misuse of a transgender employee’s new name and gender pronoun may constitute sex-based discrimination or harassment. It noted that “supervisors and coworkers should use the name and pronoun of the gender that the employee identifies with in employee records and in communications with and about the employee.” In its decision, the EEOC cited guidance from the Office of Personnel Management, which encourages federal employers to use pronouns appropriate to an employee’s expressed gender identity." -- https://www.natlawreview.com/article/he-saidshe-said-pronoun...
Is there really a financial incentive for healthy people to donate? Where are these sperm banks paying top dollar for better sperm?

Based on what I've read in the news about artificial insemination outcomes using sperm sourced from banks, there's just enough financial incentive for poor people to donate, and they lie in the poorly vetted paperwork about their health, education, background, etc.
In static typing paradigms, the idea most certainly is to make it foolproof and not merely easy to spot. Literally to convert the problem into something the compiler can prove is unbroken.

Not saying this makes static typing better or anything, just pointing out that “easy to spot in code review” is massively different from “absolute mathematical proof this problem isn’t affecting me.”

I’d argue you rarely care about such compiler proofs in real software development, but that’s beside the point if you assume a static typing paradigm has already been chosen.
I've had cognitive dissonance for years, because in every basic database programming class, they tell you about transactions, and use the example of transferring money from one account to another, where you don't want the system to be in an inconsistent state. Yet nothing in the real world works like that! I've particularly noticed how money being transferred between two different financial firms can either disappear for a few days, or be in both places at once. Not sure if it's happening more or I'm noticing it more.
>but I think most people, in the western world, at least, would be shocked at just how violent real violence is because of how it is portrayed in popular media.

Most of the reason for that, of course, is marketing. Less violent movies can be rated to reach a wider audience. In the comics, depending on the era, writer, etc, superheroes could be extremely cynical and violent.
I thought the book was one of the better ones I've read on the topic, so I recommended it. It is not a spiritual book.

I likewise would recommend reading "Islamic Patterns: An analytical and cosmological approach" when approaching geometry.

Either the book is good or not in getting you to understand something you don't currently understand. I trust the reader to be able to make their own judgements, especially in this case where you can read the book for the opposite gender to see if they are full of bullshit.

I was hoping Personal Automation would solve a long-time goal of mine: waking up to a carefully curated playlist rather than a ringtone. But it looks like this still won't work, because it requires human interaction to kick off the 'automation'. That's a shame, since this is something that every radio alarm handles.
I'm pretty sure $50Bn could get us Fusion. Instead it got us slightly better taxis.

We've only invested $1Bn in fusion (according to this article: https://www.greenbiz.com/article/fission-fusion-capital-flow...). Physicists have been saying "we're close" for like 70 years.

It took the Manhattan project the equivalent of $23Bn. If we had the same type of investment, we could have clean and (almost) free energy forever. Instead we spend like 20% of GDP on energy per year. And destroy our only planet...

It's not like the stakes are high or anything.

Ability to find php developers is usually a reason to choose php. It's actually harder to find good js developers.

Javascript frameworks work nicely with php acting as an api. An even better approach is a hybrid that allows you to use a framework like Vue/React or a libruary like jQuery but also allows you to use php to power your pages. This gives you the ability to have an spa per section.

A common approach is to use an api to deliver data to your mobile app. If you've built it in php that can be reused.

tl;dr version, law works as expected and takes money out of the pockets of people who were over charging. They are mad and so they are throwing around as much FUD as they can dig up in an effort to keep this from spreading.

I know, the question of "over charging" is a difficult one to answer. All of the evidence on people willing to be doctors in California suggests that there are plenty of suppliers who will work willingly in the new system. That says to me it is working as intended.
I know with my OCD, it's easier to send a single line/short message than write a post and sit there staring out at it whilst I overthink it (once I've sent it, it's not worth changing it), so this may be similar .

>If you want to buy $15,000 worth of heroin from a dark net drug distributor, would you do it in bitcoin, or a USD wire transfer?

Sure, you use bitcoin because thats what online distributors accept. But you answer me this, if I want to buy 50kg of cocaine or heroin, am I paying the Mexican Cartels/Afghan warlords/Colombian cartels USD or BTC?

>We successfully combat these things in USD, Visa, et

If we could successfully combat these with VISA would carding still be a thing? Would identity theft be a thing?

1bn was stolen from Moldovan banks by bank transfer and they still couldn't get the money back.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moldovan_bank_fraud_scandal

So it's hardly like any of these are a secure medium, sure there are laws that can be used to prosecute offenders, same ones that can be used for crimes involving bitcoin. Bitcoin is also trackable/traceable with the right resources BY DESIGN (not sure why that matter but it matters to you).

Also I think it was the SEC who said that cash was the preferred option for criminals, with bitcoin being a very small area for money laundering or other criminal activities.

There is a lot of hyperbole in your comment (breathtaking, insane, illogical) and a significant misunderstanding of bitcoin. Perhaps don't act so superior when you don't know everything.
Stoicism is different from denial. I think denial is more what the article is about, since it talks about the higher suicide rate of men, etc.

I’m unsure the point of the vision fund was to make safe long term bets. At the end of the day, it’s unclear to me how nvidia would use an extra 10B dollars - other than pour that into R&D (in which case does that really cost $10B - and if your thesis is R&D, universities tend to do a better job anyways).

The thesis for Uber (and wework) was simpler - assuming they had sound unit economics, give them $XB to repeat all over the world. In fact if Uber didn’t mistakenly give Lyft a second life, Uber might be in a much better spot.

I think the problem is, companies like Uber, Wework and Wag work really well in wealthy cities like SF and NYC, but not as well in other cities. I live in SF and WeWork “works” there are glut of companies coming in and out of the VC machine that need temporary space that end up needing to also scale up quickly. However that’s unique to SF and SF is such a large market, maybe it looks sound until it doesn’t.

I don't get it — why can't the car rental company mention beforehand that they're required to hold a ~$2,000 deposit on some sort of card, and that the renter should have this amount to cover it?

There are credit cards out there (e.g. student ones) with abysmally-low limits. And I can easily keep a hold of ~$2,000 on my Visa/Mastercard debit card, as long as I have that amount in my bank account.
Not sure why this is being downvoted jettison the core would likely be the go-to solution you can put into a stable orbit or even set on course with the sun and let it burn off...

There is no much need for a complex control mechanism in fact keeping those core as orbital modules on mars would likely allow you to skip many of the complications of having a complex control system to prevent a run away effect and modulate power output no one really cares if the core would go critical even at low orbit on Mars as there is so much radiation there from natural sources anyhow.

If the core goes critical mid way then either have a fallback core or just jettison it and wait for a rescue mission.

The vessels would likely have enough supplies for such occasions and as far as risk to the crew goes nuclear propulsion in space is much less dangerous than chemical propellants that can actually explode.

With a nuclear core you can safely vent hydrogen and xenon to space not worrying that much about radiation or long term contamination the cores can be more or less exposed with large fin stacks for radiative cooling.
