This is pretty much how Australia is run right now. Although when there is no "Them" to blame the government makes up total nonsense and if that gets called out they say "This is has always been a problem and nothing could be done about it. 'they' would have handled it even worse than we did"

It's not just the US though, you have other countries in Europe handling this abysmally like The Netherlands.

No, I do not believe it requires any such assumption. I am 100% likely to die, as is everyone. That's the nature of living. We all have an expiry date. When I'm wheeled in for whatever reason, car accident, fell in the bathroom, tomorrow, next month, ten years from now, exercise your morality and save me if I can be saved - no questions asked. That's all.

Listen, it's pretty obvious I never assumed I'd die in the near future without a mask, only that I might be put in a life threatening situation at some point - mask or no mask. I don't see how this is supposed to be such a hard choice to save my life. I'm rate-limited on HN, so this might be my last post, but if you find it so hard to say you'd help saving my life maybe you shouldn't be moralizing on how I should be saving others'.

What I find interesting about the knapsack problem, and the traveling salesman problem as well, is that they're fast to satisfy, but incredibly time-consuming to solve.

Once upon a time, I had a 4x8 sheet of small plastic parts to route out on a ShopBot. The naive layout from the vector drawing program was incredibly inefficient, and we ended up downloading a general-purpose traveling-salesman-solver written in Java.

It converged upon a dramatically better solution in a few seconds, and didn't really improve it in the next few minutes. So we just stopped it and ran the good-enough route, while leaving the solver running for two days out of pure curiosity.

Now, it was visibly not perfect, there were a couple skips where we could see a shorter way to do it. And it did eventually find those routes.

So if all you need is a reasonable route for your traveling salespersons, or an acceptably efficient packing arrangement for your shipping container, this is achievable and easy, if you're willing to leave that last 1-2% sitting on the table.
Average as in mean? I think you might have meant median.
Cool may be a bit of a misnomer. you want to transfer energy (as heat) from the reactor to the generator. To do this you pump a fluid in a cycle. It picks up heat at the reactor and drops it off at the turbine/generator. You want the reactor to get hot and stay hot but if you didn't move the heat it would just heat up until it melted and your turbine would sit there motionless and sad.

The moving fluid is called a coolant.

If you're looking for a lubricant, silicone based ones are awesome for many tasks. The brand WD40 (which now makes several different products) even makes them.

If you spray a lock with WD-40, it will lubricate it and loosen it up immediately, but then dust will stick to it overtime and he will end up worse than where you started. Silicone doesn't do that.

It is determined at compile time; I'm not sure why GP is suggesting returning false if you don't want types to be compared. By default structs are not comparable. If you opt-in to the standard PartialEq implementation using the `derive` annotation[1], it will only allow a struct to be compared for equality with other structs of the same type. You can choose to add implementations to compare against other types[2].

Sorry, no conspiracy intended. Only the observation that, relative to experiences elsewhere, Italy's mortality is high, Germany's is low. Far more than expected, which suggests other dynamics (again: unlikely some conspiracy) at play.

When you're used to dealing with numbers, numbers that don't match up to expectations are "suspicious", in that they suggest some underlying issue, though whether in data or ground truth can be hard to say.
Maybe they don't want to draw attention to how many people are going to lose their jobs because of this yet. Cashier is the #2 job in the US (by number of people employed) [0].

If they released this at Whole Foods, I'd guess they'd fire all the cashiers there. That would make this rollout a lot less exciting for a lot of people.

I hope Amazon comes up with an awesome way to help the cashiers this technology replaces. Then if self-driving cars end up working out, that industry can learn from what Amazon did.

Not only is it the President, but also the media like Fox News. They're downplaying the severity and pushing a narrative that the left is stoking fears of coronavirus and secretly hoping for a stock market crash to win the elections.

You end up with supporters of the President even denying coronavirus exists or a conspiracy of the left. Truly frightening.

So if you close your eyes and visualize a grocery store experience where you put stuff directly into your tote bags or your backpack and walk right out, with 0 time spent on anything after you have everything you need, this doesn't seem like something completely beyond self-checkout to you?

I've used plenty of self checkout lanes too and it's roughly the same satisfaction as going in a cashier lane. It's still X + Y steps where X is the number of items you have an Y is payment related steps.

Parent's comment had nothing to do with military, but with an authoritarian executive's power to unilaterally get things done quickly, if they so desire.

The US was sometimes able to mobilize quickly in response to extraordinary circumstances (WWII production being an example), but that isn't really our default state, and requires consensus-building rather than orders from on high. But sadly our ability to do so even in extraordinary circumstances has atrophied.

SDCs exist today in limited scale as well. This announcement isn't more momentous than Waymo's recent one, it's just less baked into our thinking that retail jobs are on the chopping block like driving jobs.
Nuclear reactors can't generally be scaled down too far. The shielding requirements are about 4 ft of concrete on all sides, basically as a minimum. You can use pure-alpha decay radioactive isotopes as long lasting heat sources with a thermionic to make a 100W battery that last ~100 years. These are used in space probes like Voyager 1/2, Cassini, and Mars rovers like Curiosity and (soon) Perseverance. It used to also be used in pacemakers and soviet arctic light-houses.

The material is expensive (though it could be made much cheaper if a big market showed up), but more seriously it's a radiological hazard. Someone could disassemble such a thing and blow it up on a busy street with conventional explosives and cause a massive radiophobia-induced panic. You don't want to inhale a strong alpha-emitter.

> I have been mulling cancelling my Facebook account for a while now

Going cold turkey is never easy. If you're having trouble withdrawing, consider what I did over the past few years:

1. Turn off notifications for the Facebook app on your phone; then

2. Turn off notifications for the Facebook Messenger, Instagram, et cetera apps on your phone; next

3. Delete the Facebook app from your phone; then

4. Delete the Facebook Messenger, Instagram, et cetera apps from your phone; and finally

5. Log out of Facebook on your desktop.

It took me 2 years to go through from step 1 to step 5. It has made me happier and more productive. I still have a Facebook account. But the friction of grabbing my laptop and logging in forces me to consider "is this what I want to do? Or am I thoughtlessly reaching for the crack pipe?" (It's been over a year since I've cared to log into Facebook. Feels more like trudging through spam in an old e-mail inbox, now, than anything compelling.)

This reminds me of the phenomenon where a slowdown in traffic on a road causes all of the cars to bunch up. And then after the blockage is gone, the bunch up continues to cause more cars to bunch up and the slowdown exists long after the issue is gone. It seems like the fact that toilet paper is gone causes people to buy it whenever its available which causes it to be gone.

It's just about the ROI.

Turns out people who have just purchased something are far more likely to purchase that thing again than a random person.

This makes them the perfect person to advertise to.

Even if the percentage is quite low this can be better than advertising to the general population. Say the numbers were 1 in 10 000 impressions leads to a toilet seat sale, but 1 in 1000 people who have just bought a toilet seat buy another one soon after (first one was broken/distributor/toilet seat collector/remodelling whole home/etc).

If those were the numbers it would be silly to not advertise to recent buyers.

Essentially, the self selection of 'I just bought <x>' very often puts you in a category that is far more likely to buy <x> again than almost anyone else.

The new `getServerSideProps` function addresses my biggest pain point with Next.js. I found it super awkward that if you wanted to make a website with data from a database, you basically needed two webservers: one to access the database and expose it over the web via a raw format like JSON, and then a Next.js-powered one to take that JSON and make it into HTML. For a lot of projects that separation can be nice, but for small sites or prototypes it's too much effort. Now I can easily have the Next.js server access the database directly.

Don't rely upon it to exist.

Serve up well marked content, CSS that might format it nicely, and JavaScript that allows some types of per-validation to happen client side but only as a means of making a page nicer. The server side should STILL perform all data validation, normalization, and verification (assume someone will craft their own form submission).
What country are you in? I would check your job listings and see what is in demand. Do you know anyone who is a developer. Finding a job usually comes through your network. So see if anyone knows a developer or works at a company that might hire you.

I would lean toward Rails(ruby) or Laravel (PHP).

Those are frameworks. Laravel might even be more in demand now and easier to get in to.

If you're just getting started learn some HTML and CSS.
Head First HTML and CSS is a good book.

Next they have a Head First PHP and MySQL book that is good.

Once you completed those start building some simple apps on your own. Sign up for a basic hosting account and learn about setting up a domain, pointing the A record to the server, etc. FTP the files up.

After that signup for Laracasts.com, there are great tutorials, sign up for a Github account, start going through the courses on Laracasts.

I would recommend using a macbook if possible, or start saving up for one or see if someone can pass a used one along to you, it just makes the tutorials easier. When I've tried to use windows in the past it's possible but seems like you run in to windows only issues that take hours to resolve on a regular basis.

For hosting at this point go through the laracast tutorial on Forge, it's a server setup/deployment tool, it makes setting up droplets on Digital Ocean for Laravel super easy. If you're just learning you could sign up for a trial and just learn how to spin up the server, you could still ssh in to the droplet and deploy with the command line after you cancel your forge subscription.

So going through these steps you should have a pretty good handle on setting up websites and starting to develop web applications. You'll probably still need someone to recommend you that knows you and works at a company.

Good luck.

All investors aren't equal, and Finix likely had a few term sheets and picked Sequoia over other VC firms. So it would be a bait-and-switch, even if unplanned. Wouldn't you want control over who owns you? VCs with equity, even without a board seat, still have a good amount of control or access to information.

Plus, if it was at a discount, it immediately makes the stock feel "cheap". Doesn't matter what the reasoning is, it'll just feel devalued to everyone involved.
