Alice sees A then causes B. Bob sees B then causes A.

That means that when you analyze the whole system, A causes A. There is a time loop. You could easily make this into a paradox, too. What if Bob goes and prevents A instead? What if events A and B are actually the birth of Alice and Bob, and after they leave the wormhole they land on the other planet and become each other's parents?

Apologies for not replying earlier. From my perspective it's not the spelling of the word wiz. It's the phrasing.

Computer wiz: No negative connotations. Computer wizard is implied.

Wiz kid: Also fine. Wiz is an adjective implying competence or intelligence.

Take a wiz: Now the meaning of wiz has changed because wiz is the action.

Wiz at home: It's easy to read wiz in this context as an action one is doing, which is why I say it is the phrasing rather than the spelling.

> We did talk to a branding guy rather informally. He mentioned the chance of misinterpretation, but that the chance is very very small.

In the right context this person is right. Used as noun or adjective its unlikely people will misconstrue the meaning. When it is easy to unintentionally interpret the use of wiz as an adverb or verb it becomes much easier to misconstrue the meaning.
I feel like a hybrid would be excellent. A big, advanced system built into a touchscreen UI, with a series of physical buttons and knobs around / beneath that can control that UI - with the ability to adjust presets for those physical knobs and buttons to driver-preference

Edit: Of course I think it's been well proven that most car companies tend to write bad UIs so I don't imagine this will work as well as I envision it.
UL is not a government organization, but it's not completely disconnected from government regulation.

Most states or localities in the US have building codes which are required to be met to be allowed to build anything in their jurisdiction. These building codes typically require devices to be tested by a recognized lab, of which UL is one.

So there is a choice between UL or some other very similar organization, but you don't have the choice to forgo testing completely or to rely only on some completely different type of testing.
I like the idea, but the wearable doesn't appeal to me. You say it is like a game, but it really feels like this product is pushing serious fitness work. The problem with that is that people that are serious into fitness go to the gym. Is it even safe to wear those bands for the arms? I don't like the theme of the game too - seems disconnected from target userbase. I want to fight other players, not silly robots.

Everything you're saying makes sense, though I'll offer our personal experiences. We got a big LG 'smart' TV a year or so ago, and we use it for exactly four things: youtube, netflix, xbox and (primarily) to watch content I put on USB sticks. The first two are native apps. Outside of what's going on in the specific apps, there's nothing distracting happening.

So, honest question: do you think this 'TV' will be viable for at least three or four years? LG's WebOS seems to update pretty well in the background, and, as I said, it hasn't thrown up anything annoying.

So, honest question: can we expect the TV to get slower?

Even after over a decade to adjust, typing on my old Blackberry's keyboard was just light years better than any touch keyboard I've tried since. Gesture typing, aka "swype," seemed promising at first but has somehow progressively gotten worse since then, to the point where I'm now considering disabling it.

I guess for most people, probably myself included, the tradeoff is still worth it, because most of what we do with our phones benefits more from a larger screen, than it would from a physical keyboard.

But, if I had a job that required me to write messages all the time, I would certainly consider a physical keyboard again. In fact I would even consider carrying a second device with it.
I can seriously relate to this. I have been going to the gym 5-6 days a week for years and absolutely loved it. As soon as the gyms closed down, my motivation to stay in shape plummeted. It was like a light switched off. I did absolutely nothing fitness related for a few months, just waiting for the gyms to open back up.

I finally started biking recently, but I struggle to get motivated and get out of the apartment to do it. That was never a problem when going to the gym.

AMG is really amazing. I can’t think of a more comprehensive encyclopedia of well curated music-related data and thoughtful criticism in one place. It would be really exciting if this database were available publicly a la MusicBrainz because the rich relationship graph encourages novel interfaces to explore the content.

Because all of the laws prohibiting alcohol to minors has worked so well, or preventing minors from viewing pornography.

Like this sounds like an SNL skit, "Hey I'm going to need to see some ID before you can get those Doritos." Cut to outside the shop he's handing it to a 14 year old suddenly lights sirens "PUT THE DORITOS ON THE GROUND AND PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR HEAD!". Another cut to a prison courtyard. "Hey man so what did you do."

"Me, I ran the biggest underground junk food rink in the country. There wasn't a Hoho, or Snickers in the country that hit the street without my knowing about it. You think M13 is scary, my network made them look like chumps, Sinola feared the sounds of my crew. Hey you want some of the sweet stuff." Furtively shows him some powdered donuts.

On the flip side Mexico has enough of a problem right now preventing people from doing hard drugs let alone gummy worms, so the practical effect will probably be nil.
1. As cludgy as SQL is, having to reimplement basic SQL queries ala reinventing wheels isn't very smart imo. It's worse than having an inflexible schema

2. I was only referring to mongo and not to NoSQL as a whole. Cassandra worked just as a advertised.

3. You don't have to use an ORM with a relational database just as you don't have to for mongo. There are other alternatives

4. JSON is no longer an advantage for NoSQL since it's supported by relational databases. It also means that relational databases as a whole can adapt to the market.

5. Which NoSQL you use and for what purpose matters, and it's not just "personal choice". NoSQL in general aren't the generic swiss army knives that relational DBs are. Each NoSQL project has different use cases, which in turn also have different levels of reliability and performance.
I had thought I had read somewhere about the challenges of designing a unique and valid puzzle (so that pieces couldn't fit together that shouldn't fit together) with the note that puzzle manufacturers apparently made new puzzle piece grids for each puzzle.

You're completely ignoring the fact that consumer choices about automobile safety have externalities beyond the buyer. Sure, maybe you and I care enough about auto safety standards to buy a vehicle that isn't dangerous, but I don't trust other consumers to necessarily do the same thing.

Kinda like saying something must be done because it is "company policy"; passing the buck in the hope you don't question it, and realise company policy is also decided by the company.

It exists, because they decided it does.

> Do people really like these huge breakable touchscreens that you leave oily fingerprints on, or do they merely tolerate them?

Yes, people like them, which is why when they and “lets use half the available space for a physical keyboard” phones were on the market together, the latter got slaughtered by the former. Physical keyboard win for tactile feedback (touchscreen haptics aren't even close), but lose in adaptability (can't switch positions or layouts dynamically for different languages/contexts/emojis/gifs/one-handed use/handwriting/etc, usable screen space when the keyboard isn't in use, and, plus, the screen is still breakable but smaller, but now you also have a bunch of breakable mechanical parts.
And my point is his "plurality" means fuck-all if a majority of shareholders or board members want a different CEO. Musk may have gotten the job originally because of his status as founder. He keeps his job because in the view of the shareholders and board he's doing a good job. And they could even choose to award him additional stock so he maintains his %.

Now yes, because he owns 21%, there are fewer other shareholder votes to oust him than there would be if he owned 10% (still a plurality). But they could do so in theory.

Also, I'll be upfront. I don't think a wealth tax is a good idea because it'll inevitably lead to people dodging taxes by putting the money into stuff like artwork or IP. And to counter that, the government will need to know every single item of value every person owns and have to create a large, intrusive bureaucracy to track all that. It sounds horrific.

But I don't think a wealth tax discourages entrepreneurship or working hard, and PG's blog post is disingenuous in saying so.

Anyone can do it!

When you patent a drug, you patent a compound for the purpose it is being used for. If you use it for a different purpose, then you won't violate the patent.

So why don't we see more repurposing of drugs? Because it's expensive to actually go through all of the clinical trials, especially the final Phase III trial (where 50% of drugs fail due to being ineffective).
We're hitting irony levels that shouldn't even be possible...
Since each person's conception of "essential" is different

There was someone on WGN-TV a few weeks ago lamenting that it was insulting for all of the hairdressers and manicurists and yoga instructors to be called "non-essential."

I thought it was more insulting for that person to value the work of hairdressers and manicurists and yoga instructors on an equal basis with firefighters, doctors, paramedics, and actual real "essential" workers.

> So yes, Covid-19 sounds kind of like that bad flu. It is bad, but 2 years ago we would just call it "a bad flu".

Well, there's another side to that coin:

"The Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, the deadliest in history, infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide—about one-third of the planet’s population—and killed an estimated 20 million to 50 million victims, including some 675,000 Americans."
That's because TikTok does pretty heavy 'auditing' - the content is NOT organic at all. Only the good-looking people and the happy videos go to the top. The others go to the bottom or are 'disappeared'
Same here. I can't work out if I'm not at the gym.

It is objectively more difficult to build strength using body weight exercises. Using a barbell or dumbbell allows for precise movements and gradual overload. Even body weight workout routines require equipment and space, which many people don't have. And many people have been locked down for months - it's enough time to destroy a huge amount of progress. For people who care about fitness, it is devestating. You can debate the morals of going somewhere with a higher risk of spreading corona, but it's silly to argue that people don't need gyms or special equipment.
Up to and including finnish tango: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trFs_PDqSv4&t=135
I'd guess the threat model is something like: relatively low local disease prevalence rate, the likelihood that infected people show up to workout is lower than other activities like office-work, and relatively low likelihood of personal adverse outcomes in someone healthy enough to be going to an underground gym.

Further, there are major benefits to psychological state, social/emotional state, mental acuity, health, and maintenance/progression of physical capacity.

I'd love to see you try and add all that up in micromorts of personal risk and show me that it's actually a bad rational decision. I suspect it would be very marginal for your argument at best, and most likely neutral or positive.

That's all to say it's probably rational decision making, though certainly selfish thinking.
A lot of category theory is just about composition, how different structures compose and how compositions of those structures continue to be composable.

So in this case, GLA builds the theory of linear transformations from trivial/simple pieces and their various ways of being composed. It also discusses the mechanisms for proof and reduction (you noted how GLA is clear about whether a sub-computation is reused or not, it'll also be clear about how those two choices are equivalent).

So it's really not studying "just" linear transformation (which are, in finite cases, summarized by a matrix of numbers/field elements) but also the theory of their construction, manipulation, simplification. It gives you a rich language for talking about how two linear combinations might be related to one another, something that's more challenging to access from a matrix.

I don't really understand why depth estimation using binocular vision is still a problem.

I worked on this a bit a number of years ago and I thought I had scene matching working pretty well. The problem is I was trying to make it work without actually having two cameras (ie. on a smartphone where binocular cameras were not available at the time and for the most part still aren't). I was hoping to use the accelerometers and other sensors for dead reckoning the camera's position as the user swept it over a scene, but that turned out to be too hard.
All of those things were part of what I did, as well as cleaning the house in evenings, planning activities/trips, hospital visits, managing travel, bottle prep/cooking, playdates. I would stay for multiple days (typically 4-7 at a time) in a row every time we were together. Often create an environment for my partner to take a day or two off. They are an individual much earlier than you would expect. I concede I would get a ~2 weeks off in between to catch up on work and grad school, in a different city. They were always on, which is way more work.

Hardest part was that I had to relearn everything often, cuz if it's not everyday it doesn't stick with you the same way, and you have to catch up to the kids new preferences.
Its worse. They keep breaking stuff on purpose just to push people towards their app and their new 2.0 design.

Seeing how popular the old interface is, they provided an option in the settings to keep using the old interface. A few months ago they decided to not honor that setting on mobile. So now many links on the site are broken and I have to go to old.reddit.com to get around it. Took me a while but now Safari autoprompts and fills it, so not an issue. However I can see a day where they will fully abandon the old interface and that is when I stop using reddit.

You are making the fallacious assumption that the Wuhan virus actually endangers everyone. It doesn't - we know that many groups are only minimally affected. The way to get back to normal is to get back to normal. "Fifteen days to flatten the curve" has morphed into "as long as it takes to crush the economy". We are now at the point of no return for most small businesses, without which the economy of the modern world cannot exist - so it's either open up now, or welcome the fall of civilization.
