That's assuming players knows about the other players, which is not specified in the problem description. It is not even specified if the same game is played several time with the same rules.

Given the description from the article:

I'd say, no, it is not to my advantage because I'd think the host would only ask me to switch if I had taken the "right" choice and want to make me lose.
Unless I knew that the host always ask if one wants to change, in which case the paradox indeed apply.

Since Apple effectively stopped innovating OSX a decade ago (unless you really need each new iteration of emojis) just get a Windows machine if Windows software is essential to your workflow. I have used macs a long time but got a supplemental Windows machine for my office to not bother with fiddly virtualization issues. Windows has largely caught up with OSX as OSX has stagnated or outright decayed.

It makes me sad to say that given the Apple fanboy I once was but reality is reality.

Yes. It's hard to comprehend how easy we have it today in so many things, and how so many things today will seem ghastly archaic tomorrow.

We tolerate limitations of tools because the alternative was not having the tool at all. Typewriters would have been a shining godsend for people who had only ever written by hand, so what's a little effort spent in correcting mistakes?
Bingo. If a landlord owns 50 restaurant spaces that are fully occupied and one restaurant starts having financial problems, the landlord doesn’t care, he can let them close down and find a new tenant.

If all 50 restaurants start having problems, he now is going to be super motivated to figure out a way to help them all stay in business.

Sweden is almost certainly growing faster than Norway. Norway is testing more broadly (note the 6x death rate in Sweden) and they have similar case count growth per day (implying Sweden might actually be growing 3x as fast factoring population difference).

Case counts also lag measures by 2 weeks.

can't really reach that conclusion. Mortality rate is too dependent on how many people have been tested, not the underlying mortality. Nobody knows the true denominator in these equations.
I don't know much about this guy but when I hear a founder CEO cutting his pay to $0, I have to roll my eyes. Vast majority of CEO comp is in equity so cutting base pay to $0 has no material meaning. In addition, successful founder CEOs have typically already cashed out to the tune of millions of dollars while still retaining significant stock. With that much cash in the bank + ownership stack, the annual salaries or bonuses are icing on the cake. No CEO without a significant ownership stack is going to settle with $0 or even $70k.

The number of people in intensive care is most certainly not growing exponentially. Please see the official statistics on https://portal.icuregswe.org/siri/report/vtfstart-corona . The number of patients admitted to intensive care daily has gone from 43 on the 23rd of March to 10 today.

The cumulative number of patients admitted to intensive care is 278, and since we had 510 intensive care before the start of the pandemic, that is not a problem at all.

Unless you have reason to believe that the ratio of patients requiring intensive care somehow has decreased radically during the course of the pandemic, the growth of cases is most certainly not exponential.
There’s some issues with them being too big and using a lot of resources.

Sweden has since March 13th stopped testing except those who requires hospital care, so the numbers are not comparable in any way.

That is true. But, this particular coronavirus seems more likely to cause pneumonia than influenza.
Isn't that just like 2x seasonal flu death numbers? This seems like a very conservative estimate.
While I agree that some people need to create models, it is very important to understand that not everyone is able to create them. For example journalists should not be able to create such models, they lack the knowledge.
That’s not true. Many people write code on Mac despite kernel extensions being disabled and SIP. What will be considered root will be a superficial emulation convincing enough to fool most Unix software

> not sure if hardware virtualization for ARM exist though

Virtualization extensions have been available since the Cortex A15 or thereabouts.

Linux supports normal KVM on both ARM32 and ARM64 although there are mutterings about dropping support for ARM32.

In practice, the hypervisor is usually already grabbed by the platform (e.g. on Android/Snapdragon it's taken by the TrustZone driver and can't be used yourself, even if you rebuild the kernel with CONFIG_KVM).
Do you have a link for this? The stuff on sba.gov doesn't mention the forgiveness portions of these loans anywhere I can find, so the only info I've seen is summaries provided by news media.

There are various covid-19 related programs on sba.gov, but none of them seem to exactly match how the news has described them, and I think one could easily apply for the wrong type of loan assuming it would be forgiven and end up on the hook for the full amount.
In Finland the whole capital area has been isolated from last Friday. People over 60 are not allowed to go out. People are expected to stay home and from the pictures the busier central Helsinki has been dead quiet for over a week now.

I know this is common advice, but I expect history will very justifiably tag this kind of talk as victim-blaming.

I think fundamentally small and middle-sized companies are building websites improperly (cargo culting companies that can afford million dollar mistakes), which surely exacerbates the situation.

Does your colleague know that he can get up to a $10M loan from the Small Business Administration, and that any of the principal spent on payroll and rent will be forgiven?

So, all the Swedish jokes about Denmark are wrong? ;)

> yet had a very strong response from around 12 March.

I think that Sweden is in the wrong not taking it more seriously.

My point is that it is going to take some time until numbers show the mistake. I expect the initial curve to be less pronounced than in Mediterranean countries. Once reached a critical point, that difference does not matter, thou. To double the number of cases each three days or two days, even being a big difference, will still overflow hospital capacity.
Lol cause people like the idiot in Arizona are going to die from self-medication.
I’ve always said that governments should use our tax money to design and validate key health and infrastructure components and only outsource manufacturing and only to local businesses. Governments are so utterly broken and inefficient that they can’t do it.

However even if they produced a design now we have supply chain problems globally.

Edit: I seem to have stirred up capitalist defence here. To clarify: The government runs healthcare here in the UK. They have a responsibility for making sure there is supply of equipment available for us. This isn't some car pooling company that says "there's no cars available until next Wed", this is healthcare. And as for production, the government should have agreements in place with manufacturers to switch to infrastructure build out.

We've screwed up flood defences, energy, healthcare so far. Lets stop now.
thank you very much for the feedback! this is very valuable! :)

Regarding the README, I'll improve it within the next few days.

As for the approach, the main assumption was that everything is simple as long as you deal with expressions only, so I've introduced every expression I needed as a conversion object (each able to generate the code within the context).

Exceptions are custom code generating parts (e.g. aggregate, reducers) and the part where I break down piped conversions into a series of statements in the top level converter.

Another tricky piece was to support parametrization - e.g. c.input_arg here - https://convtools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cheatsheet.html#c...
So it was necessary to make every conversion know about every inner dependency it has, to make all dependencies pop up, to know function signatures & parameters needed to be passed during internal generation of functions.
I haven't seen anyone post this [1] which surprises me based on the audience here, so I'll do it.

If hospitals get overrun, the total number of deaths that result from this pandemic is bound to be higher.
It's not like the flu tagged covid-19 in. Both are going to cause a lot of deaths at the same time.
True, but flu is spread out over the whole year, and 100k deaths is only 10 million cases, possibly a severe underestimate. We'll be at a million reported cases in a week, or 10 million not long after that.

Edit: Corrected as per below. Thanks!
At scale, every microsecond matters.

But it's less the CPU time, and more the complexity.
I'd guess far fewer though than who'd die of Covid.

Surveillance satellites aren't normally in geostationary orbits either, as that's too far away for the optics. Your deltav comment alludes to it. They seem to be into highly elliptical orbits.
Do you by any chance also have some experience with taking general (think college) notes in this way? I'm a STEM student and having a hard time with organising knowledge to be both useful on exams (i.e. containing hard facts, proofs) and _after_ them (i.e. containing intuition, connections). I'd be happy to chat about this as well.

I'd been thinking about this.

My thought was that rather than going straight onto the cap table, the government would get a sort of option set where either you pay back the loan with interest or if for whatever reason you need to defer/reduce payments then they get the shares. Not honestly for your benefit so much as because accounting for and disposing of that shareholding is not something the government is set up to do efficiently so avoiding them needing to as much as possible seems sane.

(also a business owner here, but a purely bootstrapped one hence my vagueness around the terminology - but hopefully the idea makes some sort of sense and if it actually sounds useful then somebody who does grok the cap table side of things can flesh it out ;)

That depends entirely on if the microsecond is in the embarrassingly parallel part of the workload or in the sequential part.
This is so sad.

We need a country wide lockdown for 8 to 10 weeks to get ahead of the virus. Give the scientists and doctors sometime to figure out potential mitigations.

I’m almost certain that his estimates are too low unless we can get ahead of it.

Re-reading Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle after being in Silicon Valley after a while really illuminated the character-type I found myself surrounded by: emotionally detached geniuses absentmindedly ruining the world.

His style of storytelling is just great. He leaves so much off the page with his short style that at the end you get that feeling you’ve experienced something profound that can’t quiet be put into words.
Communication over the internet just isn't the same as in person. It's harder to pick up on subtle social and emotional cues, and generally communication has to be a lot more intentional and explicit.

Plus there's no replacement for the ancient human social tradition of eating a meal with someone after a long day of work.
But if a $30 spy cam with 4G uplink was detected by the marks anti-surveillance regime (https://www.bastille.net/cell-phone-detection) you could be talking a huge liability. Might be more discreet to use satellites with lower cost if things don't work out so great.
I'm looking for a simple tool to setup and switch to DNS over HTTPS at the OS level (MacOS, in this case), with no success.

On iOS there is DNSCloak which is excellent, Android 9+ has built-in support (Private DNS).

Different countries are defining this differently. China uses the type of definition you are using so their deaths from covid (or even flu) are really low. Italy is using the definion of had virus at death, which results in a possible over count.

All said covid is >7x as deadly as seasonal flu and you have more deaths with no comorbidities.

I take it you’re only talking about hardware product development, right? Apple’s software product quality is pretty low. There certainly are lots of companies that far exceed Apple when it comes to software.

As for the hardware products, I think it mostly comes down to making quality a strategic priority. As a result they’re willing to spend more money and make sacrifices in other areas in order to build great high-quality hardware and a cohesive overall experience for users. For example, I suspect they deliberately de-prioritize pre-installed/default apps, like maps and email, and make hardware and integration throughout their ecosystem a higher priority. They let their apps be just good enough to keep too many people from downloading alternatives but they don’t try to make them great. People buy iPhones because they are widely seen as “the best” overall phone. Most people won’t buy a phone because of any one app, so there is no point in making any one better than good enough. So that’s one area where they allocate resources in a way that drives hardware quality.

Other smartphone makers have different strategic priorities that make them deprioritize quality. For example, some compete on low prices. Google got into the smartphone business largely for defensive reasons, and they’ve never put much focus on creating great phones. Microsoft was starting to follow Apple’s strategy, and maybe could have given them a run for their money, but they gave up pretty quickly because they could make more money elsewhere.
