The reason we group

A*x + A*y + A*z

in our heads somehow is that it has a repeating pattern. Either the grouping is

(A*x) + (A*y) + (A*z)

Or else it must be

A*(x + A)*(y + A)*z.

It's not obvious that the

A*(x+(A*(y+(A*z))))

interpretation of

A*x + A*y + A*z

lends itself to manipulations of syntactic units that corresponds to arithmetic in the same way.

We can't factor out A. If we divide by A, it just goes to

x + A*y + A*z.

Then if we divide by A again, we get

(x/A) + y + A*z.

We don't have the concept of commutative laws being reflected in the ability to simply exchange syntactic elements that are siblings at the same level in the tree.

For instance, these are commutative pairs:

A*x + A*y + A*z <==> A*x + A*(A*z) + y.

We can't lose the parentheses around (A* z) because the interpretation of the syntax doesn't respect the boundaries required to express commutativity.

The proper way to eliminate nuisance N-level is Lisp syntax, not some silly version of associativity without precedence. Then we still have those algebraic properties:

(+ (* A x) (* A y) (* A z)) --> exchange nodes to commute --> (+ (* A z) (* A y) (A x))

--> factor A: (* A (+ x y z)).

It can get cumbersome, but we have a sane way to do algebra by manipulating sanely delimited subtrees in regular ways. People have developed (more importantly, debugged) computer algebra systems in this representation.
Frame.io looks fantastic for collaborative video editing.

I've been waiting for a lot of this to move into the browser so the workhorse server machines can do all the heavy lifting.

I want to build a similar product for speedy, automated editing, and a head's up for dailies and on-set editing.
I would like version control, tracking and sign-off per side, common central library (change this slide and it changes everywhere - good luck doing that with OLE)... I want workflow.

Using Slides etc is like moving from Excel to Sheets instead of moving to Everlaw or Salesforce - there's no change in the workflow. Slides is just a light-weight copy of Powerpoint, 'but on the web!'.
We're saying the same thing I think:
If the destination IP is not encrypted (because how would routers be able to route it otherwise) then why would this only work with http and not https traffic? That was my question.
You’re ignoring the back end where hospitals have to convince insurers to pay them that much.
People are rediscovering mechanical keyboards etc.

But this seems like so much a matter of failure. I grew up in the 1970s, with Moog and Arp synthesizers the best you could get.

The potential of that plus programability on every level seemed astounding.

Obviously, the way that unfolded was into a world where fine-grained interactions within instruments were abandoned. But it doesn't have to be that way. That people aren't playing with modern interfaces just the promise has been abandoned. It doesn't have to be abandoned.

I mean, I can afford spinny Midi wheel but I can't afford a touch-sensative keyboard. I should be able to afford a touch /speed sensative keyboard.
For mobile, the situation seems worse than a year ago. TF Mobile mostly worked. The current situation with TF lite is a joke .. tried a real-world Pytorch -> ONYX -> TF/TF lite and it has been weeks of misery.
It makes mobile web browsers be honest about the size and resolution[1] of their screens; without it, they lie and claim to have desktop-sized viewports.

Once the browser is being honest about its screen, you can use CSS media queries and the like to do responsive web design, giving mobile devices content that fits them and is touch-friendly. If the browser is claiming a desktop-sized viewport, your options are to either serve a desktop layout or to do User-Agent sniffing and the like.

[1] All high-res devices today maintain a distinction between a CSS pixel (approximately 1/96 in.) and a device pixel, and they give their resolution in CSS pixels. This is dishonest from the point of view of 1995, but it’s convenient and it’s what web designers expect today.
In other words, your point is that there is no dollar value for which you will allow the nuisance. As a phonophobe, this would be my stance as well
WeWork Never Worked

Note, all of these studies use a low standard of evidence (food questionnaires and the like), and they generate low signal (barely registering positive/negative). Read John Ioannidis @ Stanford for why these methods should banned, and why nutritional research currently produces mostly irrelevant data.

Harvard, unfortunately, has doubled-down on this style of science.

It's not helpful that the press supports these methods, without skeptical commentary.

> I always wanted a Python based spreadhshet.

isn't that just pandas?
Agreed... Yet that's what's happening nationwide.

The electronic systems aren't simply recording what the doctor does and making a record of it, as charting is supposed to accomplish. The software is dictating (or at least heavily influencing) the behavior and workflow of the doctor. And anytime something is done out of order results in interrupting that workflow, searching through 10 other screens to find the appropriate checkbox, and then trying to return to your train of thought. The focus ends up being on the data entry instead of the patient.

This is amplified the less specialized the practice is, hence emergency medicine, family practice, and general practice being the most affected. And rural doctors being affected the most since: 1) they generally are expected to handle whatever gets thrown at them since there are no specialists around and 2) they have the smallest practices (can't share costs with other doctors).

Opting out of the system essentially means going cash only, which obviously limits your patients, among other drawbacks. Which leaves burn-out and early retirement or joining a bigger practice in the city. Or concierge medicine, which is one reason why it's becoming more popular.

There's still not a lot of public information, but a little extra can be found here [0].

> What changed is this: now it isn't enough to not be rude to people you disagree with, the new policy forces us to positively affirm things we don't agree with. Even disengaging has been ruled out as an allowable solution, since that's discrimination and potentially hurtful. That avoidance of potentially compromising scenarios is not allowed has been directly affirmed by staff members several times over the weekend.

> If person A comes along and demands that I refer to them by their "preferred pronoun" (even if it is a mismatch for their genetic sex or the grammar of the language being spoken) and I refuse, that's considered an insult. Now if I avoid pronouns altogether by sticking to proper names or disengaging from the individual, that's being considered an insult too.

It seems like the new CoC requires that not only you don't disparage another's belief, which is fine and everyone agrees with, but you have to actively show that you agree with their point of view as well. You can't remain impartial.

> Capitalism, in order to expand, needs greed. Greed has been entirely accepted by us.

Any system which does not take into account inherent human traits like greed, envy or laziness are bound to fail. That seems one reasons why Capitalism prevailed over Communism, since the former had fewer "wrong assumptions" about the human nature.

Can You Tell AI-Generated News Apart from Real News?
Here[0] is a post by someone else who (by his own account) "worked for RMS longer than any other programmer."

While he obviously has had a long relationship with Stallman, one of his key takeaways was:

"RMS’s loss of MIT privileges and leadership of the FSF are the appropriate responses to a pattern of decades of poor behavior. It does not matter if they are appropriate responses to a single email thread, because they are the right thing in the total situation."

Which I think is very well said. So while Paull's assessment that people's reaction to some email quotes is out-of-proportion, this is really just the proverbial straw on the back of the camel.

Hrm, Atlassian BitBucket is also down. Just a coincidence? Does BB use DO?

https://bitbucket.status.atlassian.com/incidents/4t1pkwrdtl8...
The thing that I find particularly obscene about these cyber lynchings is that the leaders are almost always the most privileged people in the entire world: youngish white college graduates who live in urban California and work for evil surveillance advertising companies or banks - in the 80's, they called them "yuppies."

I think it must be a way to deal with the guilt of getting paid gobs of cash while walking past dozens of homeless people every day - feel better (and more importantly, look better) by saving the hypothetically oppressed from the opinions of potential tyrants. I'm also assuming once Trump is out of office it'll all be back to business as usual.
Lots of people say this to me but I've never seen evidence that it's true. In my experience most vegans don't do it for health reasons.

That being said I do agree that there are huge differences in types of carbs consumed....but that only goes to say that the problem isn't simply 'carbs', it's processed sugars.

hmm.. I'm not sure who this article is aimed at.

- This advice applies to everyone, not just women.

- Wage disparity isn't solved by choose majors.

- Wage disparity isn't even about making "more" money, it is about removing discrimination (explicitly or from the system in general).
>There's no burden on me to change your behavior, you can do whatever you want.

agreed

I will add that the food chain should remain natural. When I die I would get eaten except humans today pump their old body full of toxins and put it inside a coffin inside a concrete box.... This breaks the natural cycle.

Eat or be eaten ;)
PR departments are amazing creatures, fine crafting a narrative to convince others that "it is we who have made it out ahead" while the average attention span is depressingly...
You seriously have a twisted and static view of what society should be.

You don't ask the question, why should an app like Uber be illegal? Why should taxi medallion holders have a monopoly on on-demand transportation in a city? To make hedgefunds rich?

Transportation across cities in North America sucked before Uber. You are completely delusional if you think pre-Uber and pre-Lyft cities were some kind of transportation mecca. It was horrible. I used to wait in the rain at UCSF for 30 - 45 minutes on the curb waiting and hoping for a taxi and finally just pitifully walking home getting drenched.

I love having a ride-hailing app and not having to waste money on a car or motorcycle.

I really think people that love static bureaucratic states should go live in France or some communist nation.

Uber and Lyft can't start up in a city if they have to wait for all the politicians and bureaucrats to give them an okay, when these people are bought and sold by unions and hedgefunds. Only delusional people think there's a path to disrupt that kind of logjam by waiting in line like a "good boy".

Through personal conversations in recent years, I've learned to understand how sex with a child can harm per psychologically. This changed my mind about the matter: I think adults should not do that. I am grateful for the conversations that enabled me to understand why.

Unfortunately, the blue zones diet has also been discredited, since those places where people seemed to live longer turned out to mostly just be where records were inaccurate decades ago.
What’s even scarier is the premise of your comment: "Any decent customer service operation will fall prey to social engineering."

And what's unfortunate is that you're probably right!
I was really frustrated for a few years asking the same questions. It comes down to this: most health outcomes are achieved by eating less and getting slim if you're overweight (cancer, type 2 diabetes, fatty liver risks decrease). Eat significantly less. Like about 1/2 to 1/3 of what you're eating now. The food that you consume then becomes largely irrelevant (just avoid fried stuff, red meat, and processed meat as much as possible -- the things that have shown conclusively to be carcinogenic).

If you're worried about nutrition, take a dive on PubMed and you'll see that many research studies show, for some reason, less risk of cancer for people with nutrient deficiencies.

> Is fasting good, or will it put me in ‘starvation mode’?

Starvation mode is what you want if you're overweight. Many diets urge you to exercise or to eat often to keep a fast metabolism. But if you want to live longer, you WANT your metabolism to be slow, not fast. That will require you to keep a low-calorie intake for the rest of your life. Fortunately, your hunger pangs will go away after about 5-10 weeks and undereating will actually become a problem.

That isn't really much of a citation; it's an assertion, and the thing you link me to is ... not a citation either: it's some kind of vegetarian propaganda.

I don't care about factory farming or the "personal dignity" of cows; I just want to know why you think there is a "meat industry" engaged in disinformation programs. From the looks of this link, you may be projecting.

FWIIW I barely eat red meat when I'm in America; mostly game meats. No horse in this race, but if you know something I don't about nefarious meat conspiracies, you should link people to it.

Why Tim Cook Doesn't Care About 'The Bloody ROI' (2014)
Unfortunately the most compelling evidence I've seen seems to confirm the weight set-point (or set-interval)
theory. A good book that summarizes main results is Sandra Aamodt's "Why diets don't work".

That's not to say weight loss is impossible. If you're overeating as a habit you may be keeping your weight above your set-point. Learning to "listen" to hunger cues may then bring your weight down. It happened to me 2 years ago and I managed to keep the weight down, and I'm not feeling hungry. There are other ways of lowering the set-point, but not very recommendable in general.

I think focusing on hunger cues and eating a balanced diet is good advice, together with exercise and avoiding drinking and smoking. These will (statistically) reduce morbidity risks to normal-weight levels.

Note that I am not a doctor, though, so take this information with the proper grain of salt.
Are these corporate 'namespaces' themselves even a standard? Isn't the prefix in meta@name just an informal convention?
I can safely say this would not improve my experience even if it happens to fix the word-wrap issue here.

Also, this "fix" isn't sure-fire. In many cases, people who use code blocks for quoting aren't even inserting newlines, let alone in the places that match up with your screen's landscape width.
Culture is made by people. If the people who made SE the way it is are leaving, maybe I'll feel comfortable contributing in the future.
You don’t need extreme precision when counting calories. The trick is to A develop a reasonable baseline for breaking even at your weight and activity level. Then B make a significant reduction sufficient to lose weight in a reasonable timeframe. You can call them calories or magic beans, as long as the energy ratio is about right that’s plenty.

Really, the difference between say 2,500 calories a day and 1,800 is about the magnitude you want and not that hard to differentiate.
The other major oversight is: it's almost just as easy to pay voters to leave a given state. You don't have their idealogical sympathies to exploit, but I bet $15k no-questions-asked offer to move out of ie Florida is going to get some takers.
Didn't Netflix and a few others famously decide that star ratings + user reviews were strictly inferior to a thumbs-up/down system?
Not eating bread, cereal, or sugar had a big impact for me. I haven’t gone full keto but I’ve found just doing that is sufficiently challenging and effective for long term weight loss. Especially once you hit 30 it’s should be something you start drilling into your head and simply stop buying it.

Replacing sugar with Erythritol and monk fruit has been more than sufficient replacement for things like coffee and small treats. It’s hard to find commercial products with Erythritol which is a shame but that seems to be slowly changing.

Sadly most “sugar free” products have Maltodextrin or Xylitol which is awful for me as I have colitis and I’ve read they aren’t keto friendly. If every product that contained those two switched to the former two my life shopping for groceries would be so much easier.

I also don’t go hard at restaurants (nothing worse than having to be picky at a restaurant) mostly for practicality reasons but that would be the 2nd area I'd focus on next if I started to care more.

Starting small and simple (ie just no bread) at the beginning is the best way. Abrupt changes usually have A
abrupt endings as you significantly increase the workload.
You can, if you are careful. The method is to indicate the position of the new index hole on both sides of the envelope with your template, and carefully insert the 'anvil' part of a hole punch through the large centre hole and between the active magnetic disk and the envelope. Punch the index hole on one side of the envelope then repeat the performance with the other side of the envelope.

I found that it was very rare for my 'flippies' to be unusable in my Z80 CP/M computer of the time.

Of course when we were able to afford those new-fangled double-sided drives, the whole incentive to make 'flippies' disappeared overnight.
SBCL is great. I do think it would be a significant improvement to include a fuller featured terminal REPL out of the box (with history, s-exp editing keystrokes, completion), and that this would make a better first impression on new users experimenting with the language, before they've given in and installed SLIME - and probably beneficial for the crowd that wants to use their favorite editor rather than Emacs+SLIME, insomuch as they only need to solve the problem of getting definitions reloaded from the editor, without having to also reinvent slime-repl, inspector, debugger, etc.

A person's carbon footprint is approximately proportional to the amount of stuff they consume, measured in dollars. Getting into the weeds on what's more or less carbon intensive and other details is just a way to evade living like someone much poorer than you are. Look around and see if there are people who live on half your income. If there are, then you could too, if you really cared.

If you can't help spending all you make, maybe you could start by getting a new job that pays much less than your old one...

That won't save the planet, but it is the way to do your part.
F22 and F35 themselves have passive radars as well, and can detect stuff without emitting anything. Passive radar is not much more than a phased antenna array without an emitter, you just don't have anything to light up the target with.

Once you start emitting you're not stealth anymore, and you can be shot down pretty easily. Same with carrying external ordnance. Same with worn out radar absorbing coating. Same with any physical defects on the plane's surface. That's why these planes are designed to only be stealth in the first few days of a real, actual war, and then once they get scuffed a little by e.g. bullets or debris you're supposed to treat them like regular fighters and not rely on their no longer existent stealth.
If only it were that easy!
Because Americans all think they deserve attention from someone that fits their personal image of what a doctor should be—-in terms of race, gender, age and personality. Someone who is in the top .001% of intelligence and with twenty years of training. All to spend hours listening to them complain about their cold or achey knees. And they don’t want to have to wait. Also, they don’t think they should have to pay anything for it.

Instead of acknowledging the impossibility of their desires they jump from villain to villain and magical silver bullet to magical silver bullet. The politicians of course don’t tell them they are being childish, but instead indulge their fantasies.

Sorry but it seems you have a naive view of large companies :-) They are giant spendthrifts, are bogged down in tons of bureaucracy, and overload developers at 1.5–2x allocation. With these conditions, you'll be lucky if you can get the compute capacity you need to run critical services. Oh, and also if some architect doesn't come around and instruct you to write everything in NodeJS 'because we can backfill NodeJS devs easily'.
