The only open-source debugger available for .Net Core is a poorly implemented hack by Samsung, because the vendor-provided debugger was never open-sourced.

You generally can't analyse the accuracy of an ML system by each individual piece of data in the training set. Each batch of examples slightly changes the model making their updates interact and combine during the training process, so it becomes extremely difficult to assign the contribution of individual examples. Of course you could retrain the model leaving one example out, but that would be exceedingly slow and the result would be inconclusive from a single run because the stochastic noise of the training process is larger than the effect of removing or adding one example.

Related areas are confidence calibration, active learning and hard example detection during training. Another approach is to synthesise a new, much smaller dataset that would train a neural net to the same accuracy of the original larger dataset.

> What do you think about hierarchical state machine [1] ?

Would need to see what the implementation actually looked like and how it was worked on. The graphs may look nice, but I've never seen people program effectively by editing graphs.

> Mentioned in the comment before, there is a transition graph that you can do static analysis on, note that you might run into a halting problem

Sure, but the graph seems to be very much secondary. You don't step through the graph in a debugger, for example.

> quoting Prof Carl Hewitt of Actor Model, "goto is harmless"[2]

Not at all convinced, and he fails to make any real case for it. I've worked on actor systems, and they're bad in the same way that unstructured code is bad.

> function/procedure call is a goto,

It's not, because you still have the call stack. You know where you came from and why (and can see it in the debugger), and you know you're going back there. You can reason compositionally, because in g(f(x)) f is a black box and always will be even if it gets refactored, whereas there's no equivalent "locality" in a state machine.

> much like sending an named event while in particular state with/out parameters

That also sounds like a bad way of doing things.
Understanding ones views doesn't imply agreeing with them. A tool is only useful if, well, it's useful. A slow C++ is less useful than a fast one. So how is it that you can claim so strongly that the value from backwards compatibility is greater than the value from speed by default?

Bluntly, if I could break the ABI to get a 10% speed boost across the board, is that not worth it?

And I'm well aware of the site guidelines. I certainly don't think asking someone to tone down the holier-than-thou in their comments is a violation of them. Just the opposite, it's encouraged. So I'll continue to ask that you do so if you choose to respond.
I actually found it quite enjoyable.
I agree that wearing a mask is a good idea but I think the risk is that as you breath or cough through a cloth mask it very quickly becomes wet and saturated with virus particles (if you're sick) and then every breath you exhale goes through a sieve full of virus particles greatly increasing the number of droplets in it.

If you touch it, you touch a reservoir of virus particles.

And it probably doesn't protect you significantly from other people's droplets or airborne virus particles as they are too small for the holes in the fabric.

On the other hand even if it reduces the risk 20% it still helps to reduce the R0

This looks interesting to me because I have dreamed of a mobile-first operating system where every app is using predefined UI components. Where every action is just an API call away (both web and non-web API) from a req/res. We could ship tiny apps (instead of multi-MBs), I think apps like twitter, instagram, etc that are mostly just interacting with a "feed" could literally become KBs worth of JSON/YML code...
Sure this would kill creativity but also make the web more accessible...sometimes it's a good tradeoff
China's official position is that virus was brought to China by US military rather than originating in a wet market. Hence they have to reopen them or otherwise admit that the wet markets were the actual source.

Henry Gunther's story is particularly sad. He was a sergeant who got demoted due to private after writing a friend a letter containing some antiwar comments that were perceived as cowardice. He was obsessed with regaining what he perceived as his lost honor, which is why he led a futile charge in the final moments of the war. IIRC the Germans he was charging were reluctant to actually shoot at him
> You simply render them as a graph and at a glance you can understand every possible transition and state.

But programming by editing graphs never caught on. So the graph is always going to be a secondary representation of your program; it won't be the natural view in your debugger or profiler (if it's even visible at all).

And more importantly, no-one's found a really compositional approach to programming with graphs yet. In conventional programming you can define an interface that exposes one function, and maybe you have an incredibly complex implementation behind that interface, but you can reason about the rest of your program without having to look inside that black box, even as the implementation changes drastically. I've never seen the same approach applied to state machines: maybe you know that this cluster of states is independent now, but anyone can add a new state transition that changes the global control flow willy-nilly.

Why Engaging with Your End Users Improves Your Code

The tip propellers reduce losses due to wing tip vortexes. From memory about half the drag from a wing comes from those. So potentially there is some savings there.

The reason no ones built an conventional aircraft with tip props before is because mechanical limits, put a piston engine at the tip the wing and like a big weight on a spring. And losing an engine would mean real problems flying the aircraft.

Electric motors are simple and have a higher power to weight ratio. So probably workable. And electric aircraft reducing drag is really important because of the low energy density of batteries compared to aviation fuel.
Improved Git Experience in Visual Studio 2019
I work as a "consultant", building cloud based business software. Above all else, my job is to deliver value. Something I constantly struggle with is "clean code" vs just pumping out a mostly static transaction script and moving on.

More and more, I write code I'd almost be embarrassed for colleagues to review. But for the type of work I'm doing (poorly defined, highly volatile, potentially short lifespan), I can't justify anything more.

It doesn't feel good and it's still hard to accept that I'm doing the right thing.

How different is this from what Joby is doing?
That inference is 100% consistent with his past behavior as I've experienced it.

His arguments are incoherent, rambling, and and focused on nothing but derailing the conversation and wasting everyone's time. He perfectly fits the definition of "sealioning". He even admits he knows what it is and is familiar with the web comic that coined the term, then in the same post, he continues to behave as if he's working directly off the wikipedia definition, acting out its every point and symptom, as if it were his playbook.

When confronted with arguments that directly address his points, he complains and runs away and refuses to respond to them. His "concern" for the topic and interest in having a conversation is totally insincere. His only goal is to waste time. Only when he can waste time and divert the conversation away from the point, does he bother to reply. But once there is no way out but to confront the glaring contradictions in what he wrote, his suddenly disappears and has no more to say.

It's supremely ironic and proves he's a troll with absolutely no sense of self-awareness, when he says things like "I'm not seeing much relevance to this conversation", after spending so much time and energy trying to derail the conversation with irrelevant bullshit. That should serve as a warning and warning sign to anyone tempted to engage him in conversation, or take anything he says seriously.

Short advice: avoid inheritance, favour composition.

Some other things I would do:

- Simplify API: (/service/${STATE})

- Create a dictionary of ${STATE} to RequestHandler's for all cases, and a default case.

- Divide as much functionality into reusable stateless functions.

- Compose RequestHandler's with reusable functions.

Now when the server receives a request with ${STATE} it can look up the appropriate handler in the dictionary and process the request.

Communicating architecture in times of remote “leap of faith”
Thank you! His pattern of sealioning is outrageously obvious and blatantly unoriginal and formulaic. It's as if he has a dog-eared copy of "Sealioning for Dummies" marked up with yellow highter pen and bookmarked with post-it pads, that he's following step by step, page by page, checking off each technique and trick as he tries it.

Sealioning is related to the Gish Gallop, to which there are some countermeasures that work (beyond systematically flagging his post every time he does it, which is the least we all can do to protect the community).

The approach that worked for me, and shut him up cold in his steps and made him suddenly retreat, is to be very calm and structured about your replies, and not let him derail you, which is something that we can all cooperate together on, and support each other by doing together as a tag team.

Carefully chose and enumerate your questions, and repeat them when he doesn't answer them, but don't get distracted by his off-topic diversions, or his passive aggressive belligerence with a veneer of sincerity on top. His pseudo-intellectualism and pretend-open-mindedness and saccharine-sincerity is all just an act, and you don't owe him the level of courtesy that he is pretending to extend to you and mocking you with. I can practically see him laughing to himself (and his Gamergate veteran buddies) behind the keyboard every time he thinks he's fooled anyone into taking him seriously, because he certainly doesn't believe what he says.

Just calmly point out every time he ignores one of your questions or somebody else's questions, or tries to derail the conversation. Keep relentlessly pushing him back onto the topic, and never let him derail you. When I did that, he was mortified and childishly complained that I was not the boss of him, and that I could not tell him what to do, or force him to answer my questions, then he immediately lost interest and fled without another word, because the last thing he actually wanted to to was to stay on topic and answer the questions I would not stop asking.

Technique and counter measures

During a Gish gallop, a debater confronts an opponent with a rapid series of many specious arguments, half-truths, and misrepresentations in a short space of time, which makes it impossible for the opponent to refute all of them within the format of a formal debate.[3][4] In practice, each point raised by the "Gish galloper" takes considerably more time to refute or fact-check than it did to state in the first place.[5] The technique wastes an opponent's time and may cast doubt on the opponent's debating ability for an audience unfamiliar with the technique, especially if no independent fact-checking is involved[6] or if the audience has limited knowledge of the topics.

Generally, it is more difficult to use the Gish gallop in a structured debate than in a free-form one.[7] If a debater is familiar with an opponent who is known to use the Gish gallop, the technique may be countered by pre-empting and refuting the opponent's commonly used arguments first, before the opponent has an opportunity to launch into a Gish gallop.[8]

So a homestead, amish-style, it is?

I do understand the sentiment, but we (as a society and individually) absolutely accept that strangers will die because of how we (as a society and individually) live. We just don't like to speak or think about it, because it's not compatible with our self-image as selfless, hyper-moral beings. But given the choice between a super market nearby and zero traffic deaths in the country, we all know which on we will choose.

Open source equipment has been tried a lot in the DIY bio space, but a lot of it falls short because the used market is too good in biotech IMO

Lots of medical and academic labs liquidate, and you'd think that the market would compensate and labs would pick up used equipment, but that typically doesn't happen - probably for regulatory reasons and because (I've found) academic labs aren't typically in the position to take risks on equipment.

For example, an eBay seller ain't going to be able to test a PCR machine, so they sell it FOR-PARTS, which makes it so academic labs won't touch it. Then, you can swing in and buy perfectly fine $2,000 equipment for $150. Best deal I ever got was $350 for a fully functioning lab robot.

The SoundBio people are great, and there's lots of labs locally! They're really suffering right now though, because a revenue stream is often education.
I suppose it's a VM if it has some sort of isolation from the actual machine (for example, a virtual/bounded memory space, among other things).
Covid-19 countries “rank” + charts
While exceedingly strange, there is an underlying idea here that may have some merit... that idea is that with the right equipment, chemical reactions (and I'm guessing chemicals that do not react, as well) could be observed, not just visually, but auditorily, by means of an amplifier which would transduce and/or amplify sounds present in the chemicals...

A weird idea, to be sure... but while weird, it seems that there might be something there with respect to a greater understanding of chemicals and chemical reactions, and perhaps chemistry and physical substances in general...

More research might be needed to know for sure...
