Wikipedia says all three.. It seems their priorities list were:

1/2/3. Insulation, Energy, Aesthetics

4. Cost

5. Material that doesn't burn up and torch people when it catches fire...

Since you're just guessing ("I think"), my guess is if the tower wasn't in the richest neighborhood of London, the council wouldn't give a shit about its insulation and energy savings. And my guess is they added these reasons to make themselves look benevolent instead of saying "We're adding cladding because the tower looks shit otherwise."
> in my experience, the latter is more effective at getting the best outcome, regardless of who is nominally at fault.

This is exactly my point. You are using politeness as a manipulative tactic to get your way.

Instead, realize getting the wrong order at a restaurant is an incredibly insignificant issue. There was never anything to be upset about in the first place. Regardless the outcome. If someone messes up your order you just say “Looks like we have the wrong order. We ordered X”. There is zero requirement of being polite or impolite unless your goal is to manipulate the situation for your own gain.

For example if you are trying to get your meal for free now or something else they did not immediately offer. If you are a decent human being, you’ll realize the free meal probably comes out of the server’s paycheck so you don’t push for it.

See, in this case it is your actions, not whether you are polite matters.

Of course, just being a jerk maniac and screaming at someone is awful. That is no different than trying to be polite for your own advantage. Both hurt people. I was not saying you should be a jerk or that being a jerk is okay. I’m saying you don’t need to be polite as much as you need to not hurt people.

I get the sense that you're applying your feelings to a group you don't like.

As a conservative, I can say that I am interested in safety as much as anyone. I certainly don't want to become a victim of an avoidable incident, and I don't want anyone else to become a victim either.

> American conservatives tend to dislike safety (people should be responsible for their own safety, regulation will slow down business and make everyone worse off)

People being responsible for their own well-being certainly doesn't imply a dislike of safety. It's acknowledging a reality that ultimately we are responsible for our own fates. And it certainly doesn't rubber-stamp fraud, as is the case here where companies literally lied about the leveling of their product. In addition, it does not allow the government to shirk responsibility for requiring the use of the dangerous product in this case.

> it’s not the government’s job to decide what truth is

Allowing governments free reign to determine truth has historically led to immense suffering and hundreds of millions of documented deaths.
There are decentralized crypto currencies that have sub 1 cent fees - where the fee even gets smaller as the blocksize automatically adjusts larger to accommodate more transactions.

Edit: Monero. It's currently 15th on Coin Gecko by market cap at $2.3 billion. It's 3rd in the number of most developers behind Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Prefer books over articles generally since the information density is often higher and the quality of information for published books is going to be more consistent. Books often contain leads for more information which can be contained in either more books or articles, of high quality, for good reasons.

Articles are often more contemporary in topic matter and so should be fit to your current purpose, rather than acting as your primary means of exploring topics (which is their most common use when reading feeds, if we call "filling up time due to boredom" a form of foraging). Books are better for both exploration and depth when it comes to understanding important and long-lasting ideas.
The 250 GBP must be the exchange fee? If your account is in GBP and the destination is in EUR, the bank gets to charge you for the exchange. 2.5% is a typical rate. That's unfortunate, but is unrelated to the cost of transfer.

I don't have a strong math background but I think during the optimisation process of finding the hyperplane, the solver (algorithm that attempts to find best separating hyperplane) uses soft margin to allow mis-classified instances. Its tolerance is controlled by a hyper-parameter so it will comprise to find the best fit within the set parameter. So it is a 'best solution' with a condition. However there are many variations of implementations from different solvers to handle it.

This is why I always start with Django or Ruby on Rails. It's "boring", battle-tested, has great support and gets you _very very_ far before you need to choose $HOTTECH.

Choosing $HOTTECH too early will destroy you. Building an entire business around $HOTTECH when the majority of people barely have a business model or a defined market are just asking for trouble.

It's also substantially more difficult and expensive to recruit for $HOTTECH but if you form a solid team on boring tech, and you build something sustainable that actually makes money, you can invest the time into building something with $HOTTECH and create subject matter experts out of your "boring" team.

This is why our company primarily recruits from coop programs - you can mold them into experts without most of the baggage from grey beards.

Right. PHP is not the problem. Nor is the bread, or the connectors, or the husband/wife. That is exactly my point - you are leveling a criticism at yourself and your own inability to use a tool.

This is wholly unrelated to the quality of the tool itself or the other practitioners who choose to use it. It is therefore a bit offensive that the conclusion you draw is that developers who use PHP must have a deficit in their ability to work through problems.

The “problems” do not change based on which language is chosen to solve them. That is, if you actually understand the “problems” in the first place...

I'm an active and more acknowledged member of the project.

To explain and correct things:

There are two types of primality checking algorithms for Mersenne numbers, PRP (probable-prime test) and LL (Lucas-Lehmer test). PRP does only say that the number is most probably prime, whereas LL, if correctly computed, says it with 100% certainty (i.e. it definitely is or definitely is not a prime). PRP tests have better error correction algorithms, and new feature is "Certification", which is rather complicated, but basically, it can confirm, that PRP was done correctly, but if the PRP indicates that number is prime, LL must be still done to be sure. LL test can have a lot more error, that are unnoticed by the existing error correction (which is different from the one used for PRP), thus it has to be at least DOUBLE-checked, not triple-checked. Triple checks are only necessary if the previous two runs don't match. If not even third run matches, fourth one is run, etc.

The order of assigning tasks is not uniform at all, there are "Categories" of assignments. Simply said, the more assignments computer finishes and turns in, the lower numbers it can get assigned next. If it returns a result, that turns out to be bad, it is downgraded in the eyes of the server, meaning it kind of goes back to the higher exponents. This is done so that the "wavefront" moves as quickly as possible with current amount of computing power.

I will probably write more later. Until then, you all can explore the page, especially the "More Information / Help" tab.

The core feature of any cryptocurrency is "money w/o state regulation", but when you're talking about selling it for any major currency (Dollars, Euros, Sterling, Yen, RMB) guess what, you're regulated. There is no way around this, regulators are wise (more than wise, hypervigilant) to it. As a result, this stuff is just cumbersome currency that roasts the planet. No thank you.
Let's look at this in aggregate:

Fact: Productivity growth stars exceeding whole economy growth sometime in the 1970s.

Rather than a shrinking workday or mass unemployment, we get mass underemployment. What this means is no one can survive without a job so inefficient or pointless work grows rapidly, fed by the margins of the labor market. This ultimately discourages further investment, technological progress, and will lead to falling median productivity and then mean productivity.

This is extremely dangerous for society. We'll end up paupers in the ruins of our past greatness. Maybe we already have, if one looks at our infrastructure.

Basically, you can think of the lack of a UBI as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumping_(pricing_policy) on the labor market.

With C++17's compile-time conditionals, plus good old C preprocessor macros, you could do this:

#define MATCH_VARIANT(x) [](auto& x)
#define CASE_VARIANT(x, T) constexpr (std::is_same_v<std::decay_t<decltype(x)>, T>)

MATCH_VARIANT(arg) {
if CASE_VARIANT(arg, string) {
printf("string: %s\n", arg.c_str());
// ...
}
else if CASE_VARIANT(arg, int) {
printf("integer: %d\n", arg);
// ...
}
else if CASE_VARIANT(arg, bool) {
printf("bool: %d\n", arg);
// ...
}
}

(MATCH_VARIANT could be extended to allow capturing vairables, or just omit that macro, it saves less typing than CASE_VARIANT anyway.)

In your first paragraph, you’re talking about actual fiduciary duty, but I was making an analogy not with what fiduciary duty actually is, but instead with the idea of it which people usually argue against. People usually say that fiduciary duty creates and even enforces thoughtless short-term greed, and argue that is bad for society and also the company in the long run. Regardless of what fiduciary actually is in reality, how is then LVT any different from creating the same short-term enforced greed?

The rest of your text can be summarized as “whoever has money deserves to have it, and should be trusted to make decisions which override any community which, in aggregate, have less money”. I believe this to be a somewhat controversial stance.
Stack ranking causes political backstabbers to rise to the top and filters out the conscientious. It probably functions well enough in companies that are fundamentally extractive, but it will put a company that is supposed to innovate on a self destructive spiral.

This reminds me of the story/urban legend of the husband who decided to clean the oven while his wife was out. The story goes something like... He put on a pair of wired head phones to listen to music while scrubbing the oven, when his wife came home she called out to him but got no response, upon entering the kitchen she saw he was still not responding to her, hunched over and twitching with wires wrapped around his head. Thinking he was being electrocuted and knowing that she could get shocked if she touched him, she grabbed the broom and tried to knock his head free of the wires!

The MLCompute API supports three options "CPU", "GPU" or "any", which is GPU sometimes and CPU sometimes. Not the neural engine.

I find the HN attitude to cryptocurrency to be fascinating. This is the site where I first learned about Bitcoin in 2011. At the time it was treated enthusiastically. People would "Show HN" projects they made that used BTC, people were intellectually curious about it. Then somewhere around 2014 it turned negative. I'm not sure what drove this change. IS it that engineers liked experimenting with it, and when those experiments didn't bear fruit they moved on? Is it that the engineers were replaced with marketers and financial analysts in the cryptocurrency community?
I really hope someone at Google's PR department is paying attention to comparisons like these, and that they realize there are consequences to allowing Google's brand to get dragged through the mud by their relentless antisocial behavior.

Fine. I was trying to answer your question "what do people mean when they say they're 33% sure that tomorrow it will rain". They mean that they find twice as plausible that it will not rain. It's just that you don't understand it as they do.

Anyway, I think you're getting the direction of the argument wrong. It's not that you have probabilities and force an interpretation of them as degrees of belief.

You start with real numbers representing degrees of belief (with an ordinal meaning only, a larger number means more plausible) and some "common sense" properties they should have to be "rational":

- having identical information should result in the same degree of belief

- the degree of belief in "not A" should be a function of the degree of belief in A

- the degree of belief in "A and B" should be a function of the degree of belief in "A given B" and the degree of belief in B

The rules of probability _are_the_consequence_ (once the value of certainty is fixed to 1)

p(A) + p(not A) = 1

p(A and/or B) = p(A) + p(B) - p(A and B)

p(A and B) = p(A|B)p(B) = p(A)p(B|A)

and the use of probabilities to represent degrees of belief is not something you come up with. It is derived from the assumptions above (which don't involve probability at all).

Might be reading too much into this, but I think there are a few layers going on here politically. Grenfell has been held up as an example of the failure and incompetence of successive Conservative governments. The Spectator and The Times are both publications that would be seen as centre-right and more Tory-friendly than most, and they both have stories today very pointedly (and totally correctly) blaming the Irish company Kingspan and this French company. Things are especially tense between the French, the Irish, and the British (especially the Conservatives) because of the Brexit crunch talks.

They are completely right to point at these companies, and the Irish media has totally failed on this story:

Which is precisely what makes it a fiat currency - its value is determined by a government entity.

You know there are other fiat currencies right?

> not sure how you determined there is much utility in using it for saving.

"store of value" doesn't mean simply saving, it means the asset doesn't depreciate. The alternative to a fiat currency is to hold your goods as is and barter them, which relative to a fiat currency is a bad idea. Your cow eventually dies, your milk eventually soils, your tree eventually dies, etc. etc. In other words those assets all eventually depreciate to zero.
