> store up ... enough (but not more than enough) medications

I'm not clear how this would work in practice. In the US, between insurance and the DEA, patients get very little choice about how many meds are dispensed at which intervals. There are all kinds of constraints.
Or build a personal relationship with your agent. I occasionally check my rates with competitors, and they can never beat my existing rate. My agent will call us any time there is a new program or discount that might save us money.

My agent understands the value of a long term customer who brings in other long term customers. When we started with him it was because my mother in law was already a customer. We just had car insurance at the time.

But as we moved on in life, we added a second car, then a house, then an umbrella policy, and so on.
Have a look at the move from selling software to providing software as a service. You can make more money, more steadily, if you do not sell a product once but by one having recurrent payments and two by extending the user base to customers who could not afford the cost of the product otherwise.

Applying this line of thinking here: paying 50000 € for a Tesla might not be affordable to a lot of people ever. Paying a low amount to be driven by a Tesla taxi service? Absolutely possible.

Autonomous driving means no drivers to pay, also no driving times to observe or cars to transfer between drivers when shifts change. Provided there are enough customers, such an autonomous taxi car could drive all day long, except for charging and maintenance. Depending on the price of rides and the lifetime of such a heavily used car, it might indeed be a lot more profitable to include it into a pool of autonomous taxis instead of selling it to a customer at current prices.
The prediction of this acquaintance might not be too far off if Tesla ever manages to make full self-driving work.
I remember historically, Amazon found the amount of fines they were willing to pay in France quite high for the privilege of continuing to flaunt the bookseller's guild laws.
I don't see the contradiction. The WHO is talking about the current state. The CDC is talking about preparing for the future state.

The other issue is that the WHO is being very conservative in their reports. They won't claim uncontained global spread until there is hard evidence. Before that point, however, there will be week evidence.

If I recall correctly, several days ago, the WHO excplicitly warned that "the window for containment is closing". Even before then, I never recall them saying that containment was assured. Particuarly if the spread is occuring in areas with week health infastructure, or that are trying to supress the numbers.

> Goroutines are now asynchronously preemptible. As a result, loops without function calls no longer potentially deadlock the scheduler or significantly delay garbage collection.

What does that mean in practice? Can I perform expensive calculations in parallel exhausting all cores?
MetaGame is not strategy. The metagame is often the behind-the-scene variables that enable a certain set of strategies to flourish.

For example, in Dota, changes to armor or magic resistance scaling can change the metagame to be magic or physical focused, but the strategies and trends themselves develop in ways that take the meta-game into account.

During one meta game, it is common to see various different strategies flourish. IMO, as it is one level of abstraction higher, it is fair to call it meta-strategy and by extension the meta-game.
I'm the same way. 10-12 hours of sleep is optimal for me. I also have apnea.
That's true (and mostly is due to the concrete nature of Bool) but even so, parametricity does help a lot implementing that function. `forall a.` cuts down on possible implementations, but you still gotta program sometimes :)

In a more dependently-typed language, we can write something like this

f1 :: (p :: a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [a `suchThat` p a]
f2 :: (p :: a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [a `suchThat` not (p a)]

and that would make it so f1 couldn't be filterNot and f2 couldn't be filter.

And we get the added benefit of giving the caller of our function the proof that the elements have passed that predicate (maybe they can make use of that downstream)

But even in this case, there's nothing stopping you from just always returning an empty list. Not all theorems come for free!
But the penalties for deferring maintenance/repairs on your car are less severe than deferring maintenance for your body. No matter what happens to your car, you can throw enough money at it to fix it, or at the very least, replace it with something comparable. If you get into an accident you can tape the bumper back on until you get it repaired (or never repair it)

But if you decide "I can't really afford this $1500 colonoscopy this year, and honey if we defer that $3000 MRI for your abdominal pain to next year too, then we can do them both in one year and hit our deductible"... if you wait too long, something that would have been easy to treat may no longer be easy... or even possible to treat.

People shouldn't need to prioritize health care due to financial reasons.

My maternal grandmother (may she rest in peace) and I shared eerily similar night owl clocks. Left to our own devices, we'd go to sleep and wake up at exactly the same hour (roughly 3am-noon), whether we were in the same place or not. I've long been convinced that it was genetic.
Don't generate source code. Give me a library that can take the metadata as an argument and generate a the desired code as an object file/in-memory class.

Automatically pooping out source code that is customized just makes more LOC to maintain. Having tools that poop faster just means that there is more to shovel when I go to maintain the application.

If the metadata to code transformation is really solid, what I get is less code to maintain, and the ability to rapidly port metadata generated code between langauges/platforms.

Compare, for example, @ngrx/data and any of the 80 million schematics that ship for Angular development.

Wait, does anybody actually believe any major sport doesn't look the other way when the right team cheats assuming it gets more butts in seats? Major sports aren't about the purity of the game. They're about money - pure and simple.

If MLB could replace all of the players with robots that played a game simulated on a computer, designed to play out a storyline as a drama instead of a legitimate competition, and make more money doing it then they would in a heartbeat and not lose a wink of sleep over it.
I'll throw in some alternate viewpoints from friends who support the Astros. The narrative I have heard is that this really is something that many teams do, to varying extents. That the Yankees have done it for years, and in fact that the Astros just expanded on what the Yankees were doing while Beltran was there.

That sign-stealing is part of the game, it isn't against the rules, and that most players who are complaining are in a gray area of hypocrisy, because they're mad they weren't in the loop on the tactic. My friends further believe that the Astros are being used as the patsies for all of MLB. The Astros will take the public blame for something most teams do or wish they thought of, and now all MLB will get on the same page about allowing or banning stealing like this.

These opinions are not my own, but I haven't seen the opinions or viewpoints of Astros defenders online - so here it is.

The Rhetoric of Reaction Albert O. Hirschman [1]

Hirschman describes the reactionary narratives thus:

- According to the perversity thesis, any purposive action to improve some feature of the political, social, or economic order only serves to exacerbate the condition one wishes to remedy.

- The futility thesis holds that attempts at social transformation will be unavailing, that they will simply fail to "make a dent."

- Finally, the jeopardy thesis argues that the cost of the proposed change or reform is too high as it endangers some previous, precious accomplishment.

Adaptive cruise control is incredible. I regularly do a 4 hour freeway drive (every week or two) and have noticed a distinct decrease in tiredness since using it. I feel an order of magnitude more aware of it surroundings when not having to constantly worry about whether I’m doing the speed limit (the freeway here has lots of cops and hidden speed cameras) and I find the entire drive so much more relaxing now.

I couldn’t own a car without it anymore.

I definitely don’t feel Tesla is responsible for the crashes caused by people ignoring all the warnings and notices. People have been ignoring warnings and dying in stupid ways since warnings first existed.
so i can keep the files i snarfed or would you rather i delete them?

I see its being worked on now, good stuff
The hash and file are not hosted on the same place so it's good enough.
I feel the same way about so-called "insider trading". The full effect is not to prevent the C-suite from stealing from investors, which they do all the time, but rather to punish lower-level defectors from such schemes.
Quite. I didn't mean to imply a host/ip header wouldn't leak today - but I see how my comment can be read that way.

In fact, siblings point about cf (cloud flare) is relevant - as cf eats the world, SNI will potentially be more of a problem; if you connect to site A via IP a, and B via ip b - not much is revealed if host headers A and B leaks, given that traffic to a and b is already obvious. But when you connect to cf on a "nearby" IP c, it suddenly becomes more of a problem that host headers for A, B, D and E are leaking. Not necessarily worse than when your ISP could see you talking to IP a and b - but worse in the sense that you reveal some information to your ISP that would otherwise only be known to cf.
are the flu stats verified like the ones for this infection? or is the flu estimated among the population with a rougher method? For now I bet that there are a lot of people positive that are not being tested, in Italy they discovered a patient 1 only because they were "luky", and began testing a lot of people finding many positive cases.
The CDC reports that every day in the US about 9 people are killed, and more than 1,000 injured due to distracted driving. [1] Annually, over 1 million people die globally in car crashes.

Driving is both the source of trillions of dollars of economic value annually, as well as the cause of ~$1 trillion a year in economic damages (including pain, suffering, and loss of life).

A focused and alert human is, overall, fairly awesome at driving, even in surprisingly adverse conditions. Humans, however, can also be lazy, easily distracted, and make irresponsible choices.

Cars to some extent try to protect humans against making these bad choices (like seat belt warnings) but to other extents respect that humans are not to be subjugated by a machine, and this means even being allowed to make bad decisions.

ADAS systems like AutoPilot and Level 3-5 self-driving are the most promising solution to the daily devastation that occurs on our roadways. This is literally a multi-trillion dollar problem. For an ADAS system to be most effective, it must be reliable and predictable, and it also must be easy to use. An ADAS system cannot increase driver safety if the driver turns it off, or won't turn it on because it's too annoying.

As a Tesla owner I can definitively state, that the safest way for me to drive is with AutoPilot enabled, with my hands on the wheel, and looking out the damn windows. This is how cars are supposed to be driven, and it's how Tesla consistently tells its drivers to drive the car. While Tesla consistently and repeatedly instructs drivers to keep their hands on the wheel and to remain alert, it doesn't stop humans from taking their focus off the road, just like humans do consistently with or without AutoPilot.

My point is basically this; it does not necessarily make driving more safe to make AutoPilot impossible to abuse. The way most drivers that I see on the road are operating their vehicle, it should be illegal to drive without AutoPilot.

In short, I think it's important to understand that a technology can literally save lives while still not saving every life. It's a tragedy every time someone dies on the roads, and it will be a miracle when we have technology fully deployed that can prevent 99% of those deaths.

that's a good point--players should practice acively, rather than passively (like shooting lots of baskets but never working on improving your shooting form).

but i'd still contend you never get to a point where you don't make mistakes and then turn to the meta-game. folks tend to start thinking about, and honing, the meta-game at different levels of experience.
> I am always using the US-EN Firefox version because frankly why would I use translated software when I can understand and use the original.

This is maybe not the topic of discussion, but the argument is that your computer is your tool, and the computer should speak your language and adapt itself to you, and not the other way around. For this reason I like and prefer software that speaks my native language! However, I don't have patience for bad translations, and in those cases I'll avoid the translated apps. Not a problem for Firefox!
Does something like this exist for differential equations?
3B1B does great work explaining these concepts, but I can't help but ask "why not both?" when it comes to explaining these concepts. Turns out, linear algebra is great for working with matrices, vector space, approximating non-linear systems, and more... Let's embrace multiple ways of teaching it and gaining intuitions rather than keeping score, eh?
> Linear algebra is really about linear transformations of vector spaces, which is not captured in this blog post.

I... disagree. Some of linear algebra is about that. And it's probably a good way to view it that way when learning.

But some of my current work (coding theory) involves linear
algebra over finite fields. We use results from linear algebra, and interpret our problem using matrices, but really
at no point are we viewing what we're doing as transforming a vector space, we're just solving equations with unknowns.

I can't see really why they care that much how the app is written, if it adhears to the app store guidelines and makes them money then I doubt they're that interested in banning it or increasing friction.

The rental kitchen for fancy meals is still pretty useless unless either 1) you live in a high-rise condo and it's in your building, a short elevator ride away from your home, or 2) you're going to eat at the rental kitchen.

Otherwise, you're going to make some really fancy meal, then pack it up, bring it home, and by the time you get home and unpack it and plate it, it'll be stone cold. What's the point of making fancy food if it's going to be cold when you eat it, or you have to microwave it?

One of the things I am most skeptical about for the future of IoT is that it's just REALLY hard to get the basics of networking, meshing, security, and updates down without an experienced and dedicated engineering team.

Realistically, Whirlpool just isn't going to be able to field that team to make their laundry machine resilient to malware attacks or a bricking update.

I always thought the only way forward with IoT was if it a big tech player offered an SDK / IoT platform that allowed developers to focus on the widgety part of their widget without having to think about the complexities of running an internet connected device. This seems like a big jump towards that.

(I worked at a wifi router company.)
I think the problem might be that the kids best at math become teachers. The ones that it ”came to easily”.

This creates the not-so-obvious problem that the easier you learn something the harder it might be to teach it to someone who doesn’t get it.

If you on the other hand struggle hard to find a way to understand a complex concept, you might be good at transfering that knowledge forward.
It assumes both players are of equal skill I guess.

>With autopilot engaged, I am monitoring everything - probably with more accuracy then if I was driving, due to the decreased cognitive load.

This sounds like a false sense of security. I find it extremely difficult to believe that a typical human can maintain their attention glued to the road in a purely passive manner for hours on end. Even if you were paying attention, without your hands constantly on the steering wheel you would have a slowed reaction time where milliseconds matter.

More importantly this kind of vigilance defeats the purpose of autopilot. I'm not necessarily saying you're doing anything dangerous since the autopilot function seems to be fairly safe, but your apologism comes across a bit like like an alcoholic claiming they drive better when drunk.
Contributions doesn't mean just patches. Also, technically you didn't pay for Calculator, you paid for Windows and got a calculator.

Yes, definitely true for many artifacts! Although due to Nyquist, ghosting artifacts sometimes require you to increase the field of view.

What bothers me here is when the artifacts hide underlying pathology, and these algorithms "learn" what a normal knee mri looks like and just show you that. IMO it is a medical liability that must be addressed.

The annual death rate in the USA is 2.8m. The virus will spread throughout the biosphere and become a standard part of the human virus paradigm, like the common cold or flu.

The best than can be done is to manage and stage its extent as much as possible, to avoid overwhelming healthcare services all at once. The Japanese seem to have the same idea.

Cases should be triaged and medical resources dedicated to those aged 50 and lower, who are still working and in generally good health.

The US pension system across many states, companies, and the federal Government itself is unsustainable, so this virus may be the key to bring those programs back into proper operation. Cities like Chicago will face a huge relief as Coronavirus spreads and lessens their pension burden.

Additionally, the housing freed up could be used by younger people and families, dramatically improving the quality of life for much of society. Inheritances could be used by younger generations to invest in businesses or upgrade personal living situations.

Lower pension and healthcare expenditure will allow lower taxes, perhaps allowing the elimination of payroll taxes.

The deaths will be tragic but from a purely economic perspective Coronavirus looks like a major opportunity for Western societies to de-age. We are very lucky that unlike other Pandemics, this virus is restricted to the sick and elderly, and barely impacts the young and healthy, unlike say the Spanish Flu.
Yes, although currently scans are typically done at "full clarity" following a "standard" clinical protocol that is the same for everyone. It's generally thought that in the future the field will move towards using scans are are more tailored to each particular patient.
