Your answer still focuses on something that happens to YOU. If that happens to another person, and they claim it occurred, you are implying that experience wouldn't hold weight to you. From this, I must conclude you believe it is impossible to utilize the scientific method to demonstrate their existence. Is this correct?

I recognize the following example is extreme, but it does fit the bill: in the past years, we've had many people come forward claiming they were sexually assaulted by various powerful people decades prior. Now, I have not been sexually assaulted, but I understand that a certain portion of the population has been. While you and I did not observe those assaults, we still accept as true what these people are claiming without dismissing or disbelieving them.

My point is: society accepts testimony as evidence for things the judge and jury has not seen. Testimony from one witness is the minimum, and corroborating evidence from multiple sources will indicate something is occurring. I am generally inclined to dismiss claims of conspiracy in these cases, so I must accept their claims as true. Of both the original scenario and the one above, from a purely scientific perspective, it's difficult to lend credence to one and not the other.

in the US the vaccination is already free, so no one should be paying for it

As to the time spent, that seems unclear or not part of the survey though i know a few companies personally that are allowing employee's to use "on clock" time to go get the vaccine if they schedule it during the work day though when I got mine from check-in to out was less than 30mins, including the 10-15 mins they ask you to wait after getting the shot
I wonder if there is a collection somewhere of practical uses of z3? (The simpler the better)

I have also used z3 to solve puzzles and toy problems, and found it magical, but can't seem to find any use case for it in practical problems :(
Palm didn't have 6+ years of iPod / iTunes profits to plow into R&D. And Blackberry's core customer didn't yet know they were interested in something like an iPhone: a mobile Bloomberg terminal was the apple of their eye.

I think we're in agreement while disagreeing. My fascination isn't so much that the phone companies couldn't do it (because they could), but that they didn't (because they couldn't even imagine it).

Props to Twitter for envisioning the product, but "What if?" phone companies had {Twitter, Facebook} is an entirely plausible, albeit organizationally-unlikely present.

It would have required them to pivot their thinking from maximally taxing use of capital-intensive investments to growing scalable platforms, but stranger things have happened. And the internet's growth was already obvious in that time frame.
You should be careful not to underestimate how incompetent local governments can be.
> Polls show that about 30 percent of the U.S. population is still reluctant to be vaccinated. That number is expected to improve but probably not enough. “It is theoretically possible that we could get to about 90 percent vaccination coverage, but not super likely, I would say,” said Marc Lipsitch, an epidemiologist at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

This is really poor, positive vaccine sentiment in the UK has increased to 94% (late March) since December 2020 and actual take-up in my area isn't far off (about 91%). That's almost 1 in 3 people in the US who are reluctant to get vaccinated.

Is this an education problem? Is there not a consistent minimum science curriculum for K-12 which covers pathogens, treatments and the history of vaccination programmes? Are there other factors that are relevant?

By the numbers, 3,000 employees at $187,000 for 39 years. At 5.25% tax, that is $1.15B which already exceeds the kickback. Of course, Apple gets 90% starting in 2032 and only "a bit over 50%" for the first 10 or so years. Those numbers should work out exactly to $845.8M.
Yeah, speaking as a data person, the SQL argument is correct. Python/R are much, much, much slower for this kind of work.

OTOH, SQL is super limiting for a lot of data analysis tasks and you'll inevitably need the data in weird forms that require lots of munging.

Personally, I'm a big fan of using SQL/Airflow/whatever to generate whatever data I'll need all the time at a high level of granularity (user/action etc), and then just run a (very quick) SQL query to get whatever you need into your analytics environment.

Gives you the best of both worlds, IME.

To me "glitch" implies a one-off transient error, which ironically is the original meaning of the word "bug" (an actual insect trapped and blocking a switch or electrical connection).

Software people don't use glitch except for transient network issues or hardware reliability because software is deterministic. If it worked yesterday it will work the same way today, once you identify the actual bug-triggering conditions.

Not always true. Usually, Costco/Target/Walmart/etc. pay for it before it sells, but it’s not always like that. “Vendor” products like Frito Lay, Bimbo, etc. are sometimes given the ability to just put product on the floor at no cost to the retailer. When it sells, the retailer will send money to the vendor.
This is cool, and amusingly I wrote a simple calculator over the weekend (and will be adding variables this week when I get back to it) for a demo for work. minikanren or microkanren would be a good addition to this. There's already miniprolog so there's some overlap, but it's a well-defined language that's about the same size as some of these.
A single source of pressure means that the available pressure at each outlet is not independent (unless the source pressure has huge headroom). This could make control interestingly complex.

I think it's incorrect to just associate AOL with dialup. AOL still exists as a web "portal" and more importantly as an email service.

My parents (90's) still use AOL email, and have done so for over 25 years now. They used to use dialup, but now are on high speed internet (cable), using just the web interface for the email.

For their sake at least, I hope it doesn't go away any time soon. It works for them very well.

African attitudes and behavior are very different from those of people whose nations have developed technologically in the past 200 years. No amount of loans will teach people how to mix concrete or organize an effective workforce. These are things that people either decide to do on their own or have imposed upon them by a colonial power.

I oppose ensnaring third world nations in debt. Either give them free stuff or let them figure civilization out on their own. "We can help them while making money at the same time" is always a veil for exploitation.

It doesn't help that the USPS was gutted last year on purpose by someone who stood and still stands to profit off of killing it.
I totally understand the use of Tailwind UI for an easy way to achieve professional looking components; I use it every single day at my job.

At the same time, you're targeting this product towards customers who are already developer-oriented — a crowd that is familiar with, or can easily recognize, the same technologies you've used to build Monito. Tweaking the designs to have a more custom flair so it doesn't seem so copy and paste, avoiding the same icons for multiple figures, and especially lowering your price are all things that would probably help with early and continued adoption IMO.

As for things you could include to justify the existing price, I really don't know. There's a heavy difference between paying for a desktop-application license vs a browser extension.

> mkfifo hello; script -f hello

> This command will allow you to share your terminal session in real time.

Using `script` for this seems nice for when you don't want them to be able to control the same computer. Like person foo on their computer would

nc -l 9000

then you could

script -f >(nc foo 9000)

to show them your session. One could also add some encryption to the pipe.

If both controlling the same computer is not a problem or is even desired, then it's probably simplest to just share a tmux session. One runs `tmux` and the other `tmux a`.
So it's a religion. There are many gods but our is the true one.

Small businesses are at a big competitive disadvantage, trying to compete with big companies that get these massive handouts. At least NC should apply the tax breaks evenly to any newly created jobs.

Here is my "feedback" I just posted.....

Circumventing Legal Regulation by proxy: It is now illegal for an ISP to charge a modem rental fee if you are not using their modem. My Internet provider (Comcast) circumvents this by tying a bundled subscription (security monitoring) to the rented modem. If I use their rented modem I get the "Internet+security monitoring" bundled plan at a "discount rate" of aprox $80/mth (plus $15/mth for modem rental). If I do not use their rented modem, I do not qualify for the discounted bundled plan. A plain "Internet only" plan is $180/mth.

True, but in that kind of exploratory environment, you'd normally reduce data load and speed up iteration by using sampling, which is super easy in SQL.

Pure SQL porn. Very exciting!

Lately I am seeing rather really creative blog posts on HN. Keep it up guys.
It’s interesting p2p got back into popularity. Where most stuff seems to be client-server crud stuff, it was something refreshing. But it’s over a decade old now. While originally intended as digital cash, it seems more like another asset class
And you can always just pay for MLB, NFL, NBA, etc. streaming services. You get hit with the same blackout dates too!

Also, digital antennas can come in handy if the local channels provide the news and sports content that you could otherwise not get with Internet TV services.

I couldn't overdo psychedelics even if I wanted to
I think I worry less about government vs. private for things that are basically monopolies or oligopolies, both can be arbitrary and unfair (and abused), but that a lot of extremely important goods and services represent single points of failure.

Single-sourcing electricity or package delivery or precursor raw materials always seems like a near-sighted move even if it is cheaper. There's a false economy to gigantism.
I'm happy to read what you are saying, and stand corrected.

I wonder, though. Do you think your experience is typical?

Am I wrong to think that your product is more niche and premium than the most products that are sold via the Amazon marketplace? Do you think that you might get more repeat business than most products sold on Amazon?

It's been a while since I've looked into pricing for FB ads, but my sense is that a product with more narrow margins and less potential for repeat business could find it difficult to attract customers via advertising without increasing prices beyond what could be found on Amazon for competing products.
Would a municipality be able to compete regionally outside of their "jurisdiction"?

I could see a major increase in these municipal providers if that could somehow be an additional revenue driver. But I also imagine the existing players already lobbied a law to prevent that.
Still blows my mind how squandered AIM, Yahoo Messenger, Yahoo Answers, etc. were. I get it, Google won search. But these were absolute staples of social interaction barely over a decade ago and should have really been what FB/Twitter/Instagram is today.

If anything, this is really encouraging -- truly anyone and anything can disrupt a monolithic incumbent. The next FB is probably being built by someone on HN right now :)
