Good eye. I have heard that Netflix pays particularly well, so that would make sense. Also I suppose if you worked on Hulu or any other online streaming platform it wouldn't fall in the same category so I wonder what other companies would fall under that category.

Finally, how do they derive those categories? NAICS codes?
Fair rebuttal, but I don't know if medical cartels would allow AI to replace their limited supply of cardiologists so easily.

It is quite cheap here in India already (got an orbital MRI last week for $105.10, including radiologist's fees; it can go as low as $40) but having it cheaper and more easily available would help a lot more people.

So that region is not more densely populated than the rest of the world? That makes me a bit skeptical of your math because it obviously is. For one, you are using habitable land mass for the rest of the world while the circled area is mostly sea water. I wonder how that comment got to the top.

it is often the case with these "new internet" businesses that they are parasitic on top of well established legacy businesses. offer convenience with no guarantees and provide no fallback except for the business they feed upon. if your bread start-up runs out of bread the local baker is your fallback. As the bread startup grows it does so on the backs of the local bakers who lose direct business because the start up is more convenient. the local bakers start to complain which creates a pushback against the startup.

That's great. I wish the government would work with the provinces to standardize and rationalize charging rates and prices.

Due to laws that prohibit reselling of electricity, getting charged by the minute is the standard, yet, how much energy you're getting in that minute varies wildly based on: whether the charger is shared, how cold it is, what car you drive, which station you pulled into etc. Figuring out how much you paid for a unit of energy is very hard and makes it almost impossible to cross-shop.

Tesla gets partly around this by having a high-speed rate (~44 cents/minute > 60kWh, 22 < 60kWh), but it still makes it very hard to pull into a supercharger and know how much your charge will cost.

At the end of the day, each charger should have a posted price of $/kWh. High-speed chargers should charge more and you should be able to know what you'll pay before you plug in somewhere.
It's sweatshop work in India as well. Many are highly educated and they want to be hired locally, by international corporations like Oracle, and have a decent life not phoning Western clients during the night and coding. They'll complain about russian/Ukrainian and Polish working even cheaper.

I think _you_ should try out the newer stuff and smooth out the hard edges.

But I wouldn't have chosen it without people like you pioneering it first. Thank you!
The thing about toxins in treated lumber, it isn't a bug in the product. It is actually the feature. Treated lumber is just as porous and traps water like any other lumber. It has so much copper compounds trapped in it that almost nothing can ever break it down. If you bury treated lumber in the ground you will find it sterilizes a small layer of soil around it. This is why it is so effective.

Anything trying to reduce the toxicity of treated lumber by swapping on a coating runs into the same problem as traditional methods like painting the lumber: a single tiny hole in the coating allows the entire piece of lumber to be compromised.

yes, at the beginning, we thought github and bitbucket would be in a healthy competition for features and polish. But then Atlassian bought Bitbucket, and their agenda was, "make BB as awful as possible so we can steal whoever into our crappy corporate software" and that was that. I had to move not just because the issue tracker was garbage but also because Bitbucket's UX became horrible, not just the slowness but also the layout was very broken, having to read diffs inside of a tiny scrolling pane and things like that.

> both Android and IOS offer fine-grained controls that are accessible to the user.

iOS doesn't allow apps to read the user's phone number or scan local Wi-Fi access points. The only files sandboxed apps can read on iOS are ones created by the app, explicitly passed to the app, or made available by the user, which is also possible on the web.

The only thing mentioned that has the slightest bit of merit is being able to spam push notifications, and this is something that a) requires the user to grant permission, b) is easily disabled by the user if it's annoying, and c) explicitly forbidden by Apple:

> 4.5.3 Do not use Apple Services to spam, phish, or send unsolicited messages to customers, including Game Center, Push Notifications, etc. […]

> 4.5.4 Push Notifications must not be required for the app to function, and should not be used for advertising, promotions, or direct marketing purposes or to send sensitive personal or confidential information. Abuse of these services may result in revocation of your privileges.

Something that I think is missing in the discussion here with regard to payment methods is: know your market segmentation. If you are targeting b2B (i.e. large business), there are going to be a lot of circumstances where credit card payments are a non-starter.

From personal (F500) experience, I know that I am going to have to move mountains in order for purchasing to accept a commercial arrangement with monthly credit card payments, which means I will usually move on to a competitive solution if one exists. In fact, one of the first questions I usually ask a vendor is "do you sell through (preferred reseller already listed as an approved vendor in our purchasing system)" as I know this is going to make my job of getting the purchase approved 100x easier.

So in conclusion, know your market segmentation and how your potential customers' expectations for how they will do business with you.

In theory these devices recognize their activation word locally and start streaming audio after you said the activation word. In practice missing an activation word annoys the customer, and if the server can differentiate between random conversation and commands, unnecessary activations go unnoticed. So there's incentive to be very generous with the local detection.

I've been to the RSNA, am involved in healthcare software in the USA, and seeing what companies like Phillips, GE, et al, spend on floor space at this conference, it seems difficult to imagine these companies yielding their market position for cheaper machines to reduce costs. MRI equipment is huge business (these companies don't bat an eye spending $1,000,000+ for a conference such as the RSNA because this is where they wine and dine and make every hospital exec feel "special" so when it comes time to buy x MRIs, the sale alone will pay back the conference cost 10 fold. These conferences are expensive. The sales pipe is long (and thus expensive).

There may be companies creating and selling these, but the heavyweights don't like losing a market opportunity in "their" hospitals. I'd be very reticent to think there will ever be lower costs in the ER for offering said device/service.

Please don't get me wrong, I'm excited for limited use machines that can provide the basic information needed at a fraction of the price. I'm very leery of US healthcare institutions making a rational, patient-friendly cost conscious decision.

The article definitely agrees with your rule #0:

> The rules are not meant as absolute rules, but as food for thought: For you to think about the tradeoffs, of how and why there will be additional hassle and distraction from your core activities, if you decide to “break” one of the “rules”.

> For example, if you decide going to trade shows is right for your business, you should understand the fully-loaded cost of doing that. Not just the cost in money but also the cost in time. Depending on your product, they can still be one of the absolute best ways to reach your ideal customers.
Or maybe the existence of this policy acknowledges that failure is an expected outcome and people want to get back into the job market and maybe try again later.

Why do you think 2 is alien? How could the fundamental theorem of arithmetic be stated without 2?
52M km^2 of land on our planet is habitable, after forests, shrubs, rivers and lakes [0]. Total land mass is 149M km^2. So only 1/3 of the world's land is habitable. That's actually ~20M square miles. Your habitable land estimate is already nearly 50% off according to the source I found.

The circle covers 50.2M km^2 (4000^2 * pi). I'm going to assume the 2/3 land quotes are good enough an estimate. That makes the land mass inside the circle 33.5M km^2 (2/3 * 50.2). That means that the circle contains just 22.5% (33.5M/149M) of ALL land mass.

I couldn't find any quick data source on how much land inside the circle is actually habitable. So I'll apply a few ratios:

If X% of the land in the circle is habitable:

X = 33% --> 33% * 33.5M / 52M = 21.5%
X = 50% --> 50% * 33.5M / 52M = 32.2%
X = 75% --> 75% * 33.5M / 52M = 48.3%

Your estimations would hold iff >75% of the land in the circle is habitable.

Yes, exactly this. I worked support for many years, fixing bugs in other developer's code.

The most efficient way to find the problem and fix it is to find a string and start pulling it. Don't waste your time researching everything - you don't where that problem is yet.

You're either starting from "when I try A, B happens, but I want C" or you're looking at "the logs show this error (or just stop after last successful action)".

Use that as a starting place and follow it carefully until you get to the suspect behavior. Then start learning what's going and why it's wrong. Half the time, it's a red herring and you need to keep looking elsewhere.

It's take some effort to put on the blinders and ignore everything else, and you need to be OK with not knowing how some parts of the system work. If you need to know it to fix the problem, you'll learn about it in the course of your investigation.

I might be mistaken (and I'm no Haskell expert) but I believe your solution is based on a misunderstanding of the problem.

> Find the Kth highest value in a binary search tree

Your code seems to return _any_ node that is at level K. Where K is 1 for the root node, 2 for its children, 3 for its grandchildren, etc.

But unless I'm mistaken, by the wording of the problem, it's looking for the concretely K highest value, in sorted order. Not "highest in the tree". So if a binary search tree has values (1, 3, 5, 8, 13) the algorithm is supposed to return 8 when K=2, _regardless_ of how the nodes are structured. (E.g. Even if it's unbalanced and 8 is the root node.) Because 8 is the 2nd highest value contained by the tree.

Sounds like a harder puzzle than your interpretation...
The study of calculus that you’re referring to is real analysis. Never quite thought of it as pure math though as it’s very applicable to many things - hence the “analysis.”

Number theory is actually an example of pure math having real world impacts despite its nature. It’s very much about studying math for maths sake - though there are also people interested in it for their own applications.

They’ve gone the brute force route with number theory because proving things in it is hard - in the sense that a hard number theory problem takes centuries to solve otherwise.
On the other hand most spoken languages use similar underlying concepts (with some exceptions, e.g. translation to language without subjective direction terms like "left" or "right" might be tricky). Programming languages can have completely different execution models, especially when you compare ones between paradigms. Translating imperative for loop into map/filter/fold chain in functional language would have to be very non-local.
Awesomely ludic!
Do you know similar things for other languages or frameworks?

To elaborate on my comment, which I think is neither insubstantive nor flamebait: It's absurd to suggest that users are not to blame here. On one hand, they complain about it, but on the other hand, they obviously use the app, or else they wouldn't bother maintaining it. Being subject to all of this tracking nonsense is what within economics is known as a 'revealed preference'.
