Then for the general population below whatever that age is (maybe 65?), you'd get roughly `(51-30)/4449 ≈ 0.47% FR` (non-PCI deaths/total positive). It's a bit unclear as it seems the numbers are changing as test results arrive. For the PCI cohort: 30/1258 ≈ 2.38% (deaths/recovered).

The 0.47% FR would seem much more plausible given the spread of the virus and the number of asymptomatic cases that appear to exist from serological testing.
There is currently a partial lobste.rs mirror hosted at typed-hole.org over gemini (as well as gopher). Gopher also has gopherpedia which mirrors wikipedia (many clients for gemini also support gopher). While I dont think mirroring should be the end goal, I agree it is a good stepping stone to original content to have , as you put it, low-distraction access to these resources.

Recent work has gone on to allow git cloning over gemini and there is syntax support for the, admittedly minimal, text/gemini format in vim and emacs.

TypeScript already supports writing type defs as comments in JS files. You get the static checking benefits of TypeScript and can run your code in a browser.

It also has enum support. If someone wants to add enums to EcmaScript, it has nothing to do with TypeScript or their team.
So my statement was a total comedic effort not to be taken seriously, I'd never suggest anyone use a company on the basis of terrible customer support. That's what the semi-colon parentheses at the end was meant to signify.

To attempt to actually answer your question, I believe the nature of the governance around registrars would ensure you have recourse to transfer your domain in the case that Google be Google. It might not be slick. I don't know. But, it's unlikely they can override the overarching policies for such things and continue being a registrar.

> when the likes of Amazon, Wal-Mart and others go full scale on their own offerings then structurally it would seem impossible for Instacart to compete

I agree completely. I signed up to be a shopper with Instacart, and the experience was awful. To get work, there was a 'first come, first serve' queue I had to check at a specific time several times a week. Not great, I thought, but okay, we'll see how it goes.

Well, apparently people had set up bots or something, because all the orders worth taking were scooped up in less than a minute when the appointed time arrived. I couldn't even read the screen fast enough to see what was there before it was gone. I walked away in disgust immediately and never considered working with them again.

That's a really surprising opinion to be, because I feel the exact same way but replacing "grad school" with "working at a corporation". I feel that most people go get a job on autopilot, as applying to a PhD requires substantial preparation whereas applying for a job is sort of a default.

Then a job is even more so trading time for money, and easy to lose 6 years, or even 40 years in a blink. And what do you have to show for it? Half the projects get cancelled, 95% of projects at a corporation don't last past 5 years. Your name does not even appear on any work you have done.

Most of the the skills you gain are about how to navigate that specific corporation. This feel to me like the biggest waste of time when I was refreshing Reddit to death at my desk.

At least with a Ph.D., you're at least learning a skill, and gaining a globally recognized credential. Having 10 years at AT&T or Oracle is a decaying credential in comparison. Like you, I'd suggest for people to "get outside your comfort zone" of a business/company and "try something before you default" to a corporate desk job.

There is the old joke paper given to the British Medical Journal (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC300808/). The "problem" it tries to figure out is do parachutes work? There is anecdotal evidence that they work - bit there have been cases where people have fallen from great height without a parachute and not died and there are cases where someone has jumped from low altitude with a parachute and died.

What they then do is suggest a proper double blind analysis to confirm that a parachute actually works. But it is a joke so they do not go far.

The point they make applies here also. On the part of the boss it does feel like you are in control and I am sure HR would love it because they now have time sheets that they can use to process payroll etc.

But for the end user ... does it actually increase productivity?

Actually ... does it actually matter whether it does or not? Maybe their goal is to make the bosses happy. My suspicion though is that it may actually be reducing productivity as they mess up morale. But that has not been tested either. (Not sure if it can be tested).

Stuff like this makes me wonder why Chrome's security model allows things if it can be scanned and deemed unsafe. Isn't it preferable to bake such restrictions into the extension API if Google didn't want PushBullet to go beyond it? Why does this need to be enforced by an app store?
It's probably worth pointing out that LAPACK/BLAS is a strictly Fortran77 interface, which isn't ideal. Unfortunately there's no de facto standard modern interface available.
You aren't wrong about features, but the fact it's now free until $1 million USD in sales means by the time you own Epic a cent you've made a LOT of money, in Indie terms. Depending on how tight you think your budget will be that could be important.

Bombadillo dev here. When you say sluggish do you mean at the transmission layer or in the user experience? I'm working on adding in some concurrency for both screen drawing and requests that should eventually result in increased speed for the user when navigating around (less blocking going on overall).

I think a big reason why password managers tend to have native apps is so that the OS can better integrate with them. For example, iOS' `AuthenticationServices` API which can autofill username & passwords from a third party password manager. I don't think PWAs can achieve this yet. Personally I use Bitwarden, which offers both native and web client for all of my devices.

In any case, still very good to see more choices out there, and congrats on launching!

> They sent an email with no guidance whatsoever.

Did they, though? The email seemed pretty clear that the problem was requesting more permissions than necessary.

I'm no Google fan, by any means, but if it's that hard for the developer to check which permissions their own app is requesting, I don't know if it's Google's fault.
Once you start optimizing across large numbers of drivers you end up dispatching the same driver to the same restaurant to do multiple pickups anyway, which then need to be delivered quickly. Outside of peak times having fewer drivers than restaurants seems like a net win, but restaurants can make use of drivers when their not making deliveries. This also means their in the restaurant and thus lowers delivery times.

Believe me I understand why it seems possible, but this is one of those cases where real world data doesn’t fit abstract models very well. One example is during peak times both the restaurant and it’s drivers get overwhelmed so preparation time is increasing. Another example is if their returning to the same location they can easily return empty insulated boxes, but that’s problematic if their doing pickup from 10+ restaurants a shift.

Have you seen the bills restaurants are getting from Grubhub and the numbers on the restaurant side?

The shadow restaurants opening up to serve these markets that massively lower the quality of the food in shared terrible kitchens (most not zoned for that and with little to no safety equipment) but using the restaurant name anyway?

It's the whole thing end-to-end that is unsustainable.

As far as editor support, I have used reason-language-server (https://github.com/jaredly/reason-language-server) with Emacs (current), Vim and VSCode (provided through reason-vscode plugin).

ReasonML's compiler is way faster than Typescript's.

The whole “Uber makes a profit on the ride” stat is broadly just creative accounting that counts the revenue and ignores most of the costs including the huge back office operation to build and support the app, marketing, admin, etc etc.

Yes it’s good that they charge the customer more than they pay the driver, but that doesn’t translate into a “profitable transaction” from a business standpoint. If it takes $X millions in engineering costs to build and maintain an app required for that ride to have occurred then one needs to prorate that cost across each ride as a cost and so on. There are lots of examples of these creative “our transactions are profitable” claims like WeWork’s much ridiculed “Community Adjusted EBITDA” metric.

The fancier your metrics need to be to show you are “profitable” the bigger the red flag should be that all is not well in Oz.
> It's easy to be profitable when you get to set your fees and have platform lock-in.

That's exactly the VC playbook isn't it? Subsidize the market until you achieve lock-in, then stop the subsidies.

Now the market has nowhere else to go but to pay almost whatever you want. A restaurant can't afford to not be on GrubHub. A diner doesn't even consider non-grubhub options due to habit.

It might be a bit trickier, because if you hardcode the port in the manifest, the user wouldn't be able to change it?

Might be better than nothing I guess, but on the long term you'd need to add the port in settings and request the permission for localhost+port dynamically? But that's got another issue, e.g. last time I tried it [0] for my extension, Firefox didn't support dynamic URL permissions for URLs with ports.

Pagani is widely recognized as an Italian manufacturer. Since they make VERY expensive and very luxury cars (among other things) they likely (imho) licence their name for use on other luxury branded items (like watches for example).

While I realize that there is also a town with the name, I feel that they (the car company) likely have a very solid claim.

I feel like this would be like someone attempting to sell Ferrari branded luxury watches claiming that the Ferrari car company did not have a prior claim to that branding.

> This whole industry is yet another example of “fake markets” that were created by just massively subsidizing something with VC cash.

Yes, we saw this back in the dot com bust when similar delivery companies like Kozmo went under. These companies margins are thin with little room for error or ability to survive recessions.

Some like Instacart may work as a subsidiary of a larger business like Costco with other stable revenue streams, as a value-add. But not independently indefinitely. I hope Instacart, etc. have been searching for a buyer, it may be their only possible exit.

> Hyper-local collaboration between restaurants in delivery that kicks out the app company “middle man” could become a thing. I’ve already seen this sort of thing work well in local markets that basically out-competed Uber etc by just getting their act together and hiring a few developers to build a basic app.

It may be happening in Silicon Valley now. Some food service companies like Coupa Cafe have created their own apps and delivery services to cut out Uber Eats, etc. Not sure if they will merge their apps and delivery services though. Will be interesting to see.

"Colour has three dimensions" is a fact about human anatomy, not physics.
By the definition on that page, vitamin D isn't a proxy for skin color.

> In statistics, a proxy or proxy variable is a variable that is not in itself directly relevant, but that serves in place of an unobservable or immeasurable variable. In order for a variable to be a good proxy, it must have a close correlation, not necessarily linear, with the variable of interest. This correlation might be either positive or negative.

> Proxy variable must relate to unobserved variable, must correlate with disturbance, and must not correlate with regressors once disturbance is controlled for.

Skin color isn't an unobservable or immeasurable variable, and it does correlate with regressors once disturbance is controlled for.

Really weird that this is even legal.
Sorry, I didn't word it correctly. I'll reformulate it like this: you can represent any colour spectrum, which is in fact a 1 variable function, by a relationship of two continuous dimensions, such as frequency and amplitude. The example I gave was essentially the Fourier transform of the function; the result of the Fourier transform is encoded as a spectrogram, and the color spectrum over time is the result of the square.

If you want to represent any given colour spectrum as a set of real numbers, of course that isn't possible, because a colour spectrum can only be described as either a 2D space or a function. However, that's not my assertion, my assertion is that you only need 3 dimensions in order to describe the human perception of color, and that you do not need an infinite number of dimensions in order to represent a colour spectrum.
