That's not at all the purpose of having insurance. Essentially, in that world, you're just outsourcing the cost of estimating what to set aside to self-insure so you know how much to save and when. Shared risk pools are exactly the original point of insurance. Now that insurance is a lucrative business, the point of insurance as described by those profiting from it will forever morph into whatever is most profitable.

If the intent described were truly the case, explain Medicare and Medicaid.

In Davis, CA they would perch on power lines holding a walnut in one claw, positioned over on of the wheel paths, and wait until a car was approaching in the appropriate position, and then drop the walnut just before the car arrived. They had a pretty good success rate.

Others just dropped them from high altitudes. I suspect the ones on the power lines were just showing off; as much fun as need.
I can't find that one in Void or Arch, but did find it in Debian[1]. I think this is the homepage[2] (Debian packages don't seem to have a clear field for this?) I'll add it to the list.

I mainly searched for "emoji" tools, as that's the real reason I wanted this, so I probably missed a zillion scripts. That list is by no means intended to be comprehensive.

In this context, I think they meant "free speech" and "objectionable material" referring to the same things, but by different groups. So death threats would fall under both: Gab would allow them, most other Mastodon communities wouldn't. People (or law enforcement agencies) can then choose their gatekeeper.
I’m a big fan of what Jiobit is doing: https://www.jiobit.com/

We have a scientist in Denmark called Morten Münster who wrote a book called “Jytte fra marketing er desværre gået for i dag” (Karen from marketing has unfortunately left for the day), in which he talks a lot about the necessity of clear and simple strategies that can be understood by employees at 3pm on a busy Thursday. He has a lot of good examples, but mostly he outlines how silly something a long the lines of “forward together” is as a strategy because it quite literally means nothing to anyone who does any real work.

It agrees with this article, and I always find it kind of hilarious. I do work on the public sector, and we’re exceptionally bad at implementing strategies, despite having hundreds of people working on it. The thing is though, that most of those people have read these articles and books, exactly like this one. So apparently knowing these things aren’t even helping us implement meaningful strategies.

After years in the bureaucracy I’ve long learned to simply keep quiet while these pseudo-workers do their thing, and then get things done when they leave. Then you can always word the work up to sound like it plays into whatever current strategy we’re pursuing at the end of the year review.
There's a difference between knowing the risk distribution and knowing the future.

The perfect insurance would know how likely it is that you are going to have to pay a catastrophically large amount, and would charge you amount*probability. If probability=1.0, then sure, they should charge you the whole amount.

I am not on reddit. But I do read it a lot. I usually spend a couple of years before I make yet another account somewhere. Because most of the time other people have made my point and I do not have anything to add. At this point it has saved me many security breaches. As at some point the company almost always loses control of its password database for some reason.

The problem there is that websites can no longer decide what content and workarounds to serve based on the user agent. Feature detection is great, but not a solution for things that need to happen server-side.
Ask HN: What are your naming conventions for Git remotes?
That is, not the local name for the remote (origin, upstream, srht), but the name of the project on the remote?
Working with OSC: UDP vs. TCP
This is why privacy and regulating information asymmetries is so important.

Consider ML model that picks 1,000 people for every 10,000 and 99% of those selected are false positives. Insurance fee is $100 and average payment is $50,000.
Rejecting those 1,000 people is $100,000 less revenue and saving $500,000 in payments. It's no brainier to reject people and let there be statistical accidents.

Insurance companies can make profit using models that have huge number of false positives. If your insurance company or bank is allowed to use all data it collects to make model of you, it leads to Kafkaesque world.

"Why my insurance premium jumped 200% and I can't afford it anymore?" Nobody knows that the reason is your dried out flower in garage widow visible to the street.

The more irritating thing Microsoft does is churn on their SDKs. I think there are at least a half dozen different ways I can generate a SOAP client from a WSDL, for instance. Or some of the abortive and competing UI layers; UWP vs WPF vs WinForms vs ATL vs MFC and so on.

Silverlight was probably the most painful. I've known some companies that made big bets on that technology, and most of them were caught flat-footed when it was announced that it would be discontinued.
I think its a 3rd party search. Just that the company was funded by HN. Anyways, it could be nice if there was a link in the UI that leads to this search.

I'd love to see it become standard practice to use a system like this to define a set of SASS variables that could then be composed in other rules rather than either hard coding the colors in each rule or using utility classes (e.g. ".blue").

You could probably do the same thing with text styles by defining variables for things like headline font, body font, monospaced font, etc.

The idea is that with 2n you always go down to one. But for some values of that happene to be messene prime + 1,they cannot be reached by 3*(whatever) + 1, only from above.

So focusing on the points that this conjecture reaches only that way, can probably give a faster way to find messene primes.

If you hit even exactly 50% of the time you will grow to infinity - that is a sequence of even/odd will grow so long as the sequence continues, it is only when the sequence isn't even/odd that you will shrink. So you need to prove that you are hitting even more than x% of the time where x > 50. I'm not sure how to calculate the exact value of X though.

This is one case where a single counter example would end the whole debate in about 5 minutes (I'm going to guess that is about how long it will take to calculate your whole sequence). However in absence of a counter example and the large number of of numbers that pass: it seems like it must be true - but we don't know how to prove it. We don't even know if it is possible to prove it (a proof that you can't prove it could be the greatest advance in math to this date - but again it is extremely hard to do that)
Is there any reason you used the past-tense for what they're attempting? They seem like a fully functional company from the URL given.
Phrased differently, it is just plain discrimination.

If they applied this to "black people are more likely to cost us X" then everybody would be against it. But if they apply it to different discriminators (age, gender, neighborhood), then suddenly it is ok?
So many words and nothing said. Let me just say something to raise the informational content of that article to 1 Bit: Water is wet.
> the figures, tables, and examples take up relatively more space than when explaining e.g. type checking.

When you explain instruction selection for instance, there are also lots of figures and tables and examples you could add. This book gets around that by not even mentioning instruction selection. Meh.

The register allocation chapter does look pretty decent, it looks like it manages to explain all of liveness analysis, graph coloring, and spilling in 15 pages. Including examples and figures and tables. It looks like the author is able to explain complex stuff succinctly.

A Quantitative Approach to Seed Investors
Open Source Culture Company Handbooks
My first car (bought used) had a weird bug: When it had been parked overnight on a steep slope facing downwards, the driver's electric window sometimes wouldn't go back up. Rain would increase the chance of the bug occurring.

All other windows were fine and the problem would go away after a few hours of driving. The bug never occurred if the car was parked on a flat surface.

The mechanics were clueless. I've found that there's a so-called "convenience comfort module" located under a front seat. This electronic module was responsible for controlling the electric windows (amongst other things) and was insufficiently sealed. Water could enter and disrupt certain functions. My dealer wouldn't even believe me that this module exists. :)

Turns out other people had the water problem, too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9z7iEbg3qY
There are still five major movie studios in the US and the minor studios like Blumhouse and Tyler Perry Studios routinely put out movies that have a higher ROI than the major ones.

I live in an area that's got crows and ravens -- the ravens don't come into the city much, except for large forested parks. The crows in such parks have a few calls similar to the ravens. To me, it sounds like a rural dialect -- which is reinforced by my observations that crows don't seem to talk like that in noisier parts of the city.

> learn anything school-related

non scholae sed vitae discimus.
It's true. What I'm getting at is there when you take that all into account, there are no absolute universals. There are many axes. So it can pay to accept some diversity.

To quote the site:

> ... by understanding the psychology of color, you can choose a color that will resonate with your target audience and give off the vibe & emotion you want.

Within this selection of palates there is no variance in this particular dimension of «pastel-ness». They all seem to lie on the same place on that axis. And that dimension is one thing that seems to unite a lot of contemporary deisgn.

Hence this feeling like another item of conformity with the monoculture.

It's not all that serious — just some colours. But interesting nonetheless. You don't often have the opportunity to talk about contemporary colour palates.
> So with the perfect risk profile, insurance is a zero sum game.

The utility of insurance is to reduce variance, it is not a zero-sum game.
A reimplementation of GNU readelf, using libelfmaster
This only includes the implementation if a certain IMPL symbol is defined, so it doesn't 'spill' the implementation every time it is included. That wouldn't work anyway because you would get multiple definitions. Single header files like this and the commonly used stb libraries include the implementation so that there is a single file to keep track of, but the implementations are still explicitly included in only a single complication unit.

What you are talking about is not an issue in practice.
Theories of the 4th Dimension
You would first have to prove that the number is actually a counterexample. I don't know what you mean by calculating the whole sequence, as it would be an infinite sequence. Proving a counterexample seems like a halting problem kind of problem.

This was my first thought when reading the article. Why are these devices out there in the first place? Even if I had come to the conclusion that I needed one for my child, in no sane world would I hand that responsibility over to a tech startup that only just cobbled itself together. I'm sure they -could- be done securely, but I'll never get to see all the links in the security chain to make sure, and it's ultimately run by humans. Even the best technologically secure system can be ruined by a human with the right access.
Since we're multiplying by 3 and adding 1 only if n is odd, i.e. for some n = 2k + 1, the result will be even 100% of the time, i.e. 3n + 1 = 3(2k + 1) + 1 = 6k + 4 = 2(3k + 2). Since this result is even, we'll immediately divide by 2 and we've gone from n = 2k + 1 to 3k + 2, a larger number. Of course this number could be even or odd but it's not immediately obvious that we'll ever encounter a number smaller than n.

Xmake Getting Started Tutorial 5: Introduction to Android Platform Compilation
Theoretically yes, practically no. If coverage is universal and mandatory, companies will invent all sorts of ways to market themselves to a low-risk subset of clients -- car insurers marketing themselves as women's insurers, health insurers advertising their online capabilities to attract younger clientele.

The clean way to do it is to separate insurance (can be very efficient if privately provided) from redistribution (will lead to bad distortion unless done by the state).
Could he really say anything else given his current position? Car manufacturers and VCs have pumped enormous cash into this space for over a decade and have what amounts to vaporware to show for it. Assisted highway cruise and crash avoidance are very good features, but we are perpetually “a few years away” from the promise of significant autonomy.
Hackers Dupe Facial Recognition Systems with Creepy Mask
That depends on how well we can come up with the "almost all" that fits. If almost all just leaves just 10 numbers not covered it is easy to test those 10 and now you have proved it by exhaustion. If almost all is still an infinite set though that method would fail. It still can be useful though because now we know to focus on that small that don't fit into the previous proof which might lead someplace. Or it might not - this is a difficult problem.
> Meanwhile, Cruise will miss its original goal to launch a self-driven ride-sharing service by the end of this year, something the venture now plans to introduce at an unspecified date.

They don't even know when they're going to launch after missing their public deadline (and certainly several internal deadlines). This is just more self-driving hype in a space where companies need to constantly raise money. Cruise has already raised billions outside of GM and will need to continue to do so since they have no revenue.

EDIT: In case it was unclear, GM's Former President is now the CEO of Cruise.
It’s a sad reflection of the current world that you were downvoted. It is a matter of power. If it wasn’t professions typicalLy associated with care taking , I.e. women, would not be lower paid than professions associated with men. People in power, mainly men, decide which should be more valued and guess what they tend to value more? Historically software engineering started more a women dominated field (men were in the more valued hardware field then) and as software became more important it became increasingly defined as a men’s field and theories then prop up that it’s the natural way, men are simply more inclined than women. Bollocks!
I'm a big fan of reducing traffic and doing stuff that's good for the environment, but ..."Hey, everybody! Let's stop doing stuff that I used to tell you was a good idea and make money off of and do this new thing that I think is a good idea so I can make money off of it. Also, you should stop owning things because those don't provide me with a constant revenue stream, and for the good of the planet you should pay me all of the time.

6 year member here with >25k karma. if old.reddit goes down i'm out as well.
Building a plain .a/.lib or .so/.dll is not horrendously complex.
It's ridiculous how much better old.reddit.com is for a casual reader like me. The way thread hiding works by default, "See Entire Discussion" etc, everything is designed to provoke clicks and actions instead of reading the actual discussion.
>Unfortunately the way things are going I can see them getting rid of old.reddit.com

Well, if they do I'm out. The new is, and always has been, a steaming pile. I mean, people can't even confidently reply to who they think they are and often reply to the OP instead of a comment (I see this every single day in multiple threads) and as a mod I absolutely hate the way new Reddit is set up on the mod side.

New Reddit is also just flat out hideous in appearance. One of the reasons I've paid for Reddit for years is so I could strip custom themes to keep a plain experience not unlike HN. New Reddit is like 'Hey guys!!!!!! We discovered pastels, omg omg omg do you want to see pictures because here are a bunch of pictures loaded rather large that you didn't ask to see, pictures, yay pictures, omg omg pictures!"
You're missing the point. Risk pools are there to reduce variance through diversification, not to reduce your expected loss.

Excellent article describing common design patterns used by frameworks, with examples and trade-offs/drawbacks discussed.

A framework is defined as "code that calls your (application) code". Not sure I totally agree, since frameworks that I've built are usually instantiated by the application explicitly. Well, that launch sequence is one of these patterns described.
