UK lags US in UFO disclosure as Pentyrch experiencer “intimidated”
I actually just came home from a hiking trip hours ago. I was supposed to meet up with a friend along the way. I had a proper map. He only had a phone. Some rainfall and a little bit of bad luck and he could no longer use his phone. Luckily, everything worked out in the end, after some unneeded trouble. But I wouldn't rely on a phone like that.
If what you say is true, billionaires who inherit their money should also be among the most ethical. Is that what you believe?
I don't love products. I buy and use them when I need them.

The notion that we should be emotionally invested with products, and attached to them, is right where things spiral downwards.

I have a suggestions wrt. "non-evil" marketing: How about we get rid of the emotionally subversive language and actually inform about products primarily?

Social groups, whether in academia, industry, civil society, or anywhere else are never as able to maintain the level of objectivity they think they possess. Group think isn't (just) a structural failure but a intractable bias all human communities face simply because they are made up of humans.

I think there is an implicit belief in the scientific and technology communities that rational investigation can be free from bias. But social bias is simply part of the reality of being human and ignoring that bias becomes much more dangerous and damaging than acknowledging and mitigating it.
There's a line between 'misleading' and 'actual fraud' that these service providers like to stay on the right side of (but very close to). Producing made up CVs is the sort of thing that would make it a very short court case if they got caught.
> Can't the agency provide made up nice looking CV:s?

Yes! But this is countered by a 30min call with the candidate.

Regarding billing: this is how much SV companies are charged. At the same time they're the ones who fall victim to such practices the most often.

For everyone else the average rate is around $45-55/h and you get what you pay for.

Marketing the marketing. Good try but not.
This is more an indictment of the US medical economy than chirpractic. If an actual MD didn't do a physical exam for someone with that history ("was snow blowing and then for two weeks I've had numbness and extreme pain") they should be sued for malpractice.

Same for the ER a) giving you valium without a physical exam, and then b) begging you to stay without saying why.
Don't know if it was a urban legend, but people claimed that Mexico cartels had the most secure form of telecommunication, since they were the only ones that encrypted every message and call.

A government reacting like that in Mexico seems to be unable to keep control on issues they are facing. Legislation like this is the result.

Maybe befriend a cartel to get access to their networks?

I bet the majority of the less nuanced comments are made by people who have never worked in a business capacity let alone ran a business. Tell any small business owner that they must not do marketing and they will consider you utterly ignorant or insane.
While posting a notice of a house for sale, publishing the yellow pages, or putting a sign outside your business with the name on it is marketing, it can be reasonably done by nonprofessional marketers.

It is the nonfunctional uses of marketing typically done by those in the profession I take issue with.
Before you figure out how to market it, you need to figure out who your user is (in other words: "who to market it to"). Seems right now you're not quite sure, maybe "security" or maybe "co-browsing", but if you want your marketing to be really effective, you need to know exactly who your message is suppose to resonate with, and then you can figure out the right message to market.

Why not share the seed of the map? This in combination with the coordinates visible on screen would make it possible to check if there is cheating involved. It would be even better if the seed was generated and handed out by a trusted party. Do all the speed runs live and it would be quite hard to cheat.
For rewriting there is the general problem of "consumption". You consume a piece of information during a rewriting step to obtain new information. The old information is then gone. Say you have some edge in a graph and you want that removed, then you have to write down a relation R={all-edges-without-that-edge}. And the number of your relations is fixed. You are allowed to use negation, but only in a restricted (non self-referential) manner.

Also, if your rewriting relationship is not confluent, Datalog - as it only ever has a single model - can not solve the problem, as there is no choice-construct.

Datalog is more akin to graph completion.

What you may want to look into is Answer Set Programming. You could describe your rewriting relationship as a logic program in this manner. ASP is strictly more powerful than Datalog and modern solvers compile to SAT and SAT solvers are fast. And even non-confluence is not a problem, as you get multiple answer sets.

The only issue with Logic Programming in general is value invention. The lack of value invention is usually the termination argument for any solving algorithm. If you need fresh values/names, stuff gets hard really quick, meaning you get infinitely sized models. Non-termination.
More specifically: I'm also a cross-professional, having obtained a degree in Electronic Engineering and learned software engineering out of personal interest (obviously with significant knowledge gaps.) Yet, I still notice I'm patronizingly put down by "the grown ups" in management that cultivate an obvious disdain for the "techies" and "engineers" (as in "the steam engine operator shoveling coal into the furnace"), despising their poor intellectual and professional quality, while at the same time trying to price them out with all means possible.

whatever...
There are many alternatives to modern marketing, which is specifically made to manipulate you, through emotional, aspirational and fear-based psychology.

Word of mouth is probably the most powerful one. If someone you trust recommends you a specific app, that's better than any marketing campaign. Why do you think astroturfing exists?

If marketing was solely based on showing a product in an honest way and listing its properties and specifications, with no hyperbole and exaggeration, that would be something else. When was the last time that sort of advertising was the norm?

Advertising used to have lots of text extolling the features and benefits of the product in question, but that's too complicated. Now it's just bright flashy colors and vague allusions to power and capability. BMW has been running an ad on Youtube for a while now about a new electric model, and the voice-over basically says "there are so many reasons why car is great, it would be impossible to list them, just trust us and buy it", they're not even pretending to tell you about the product itself.

Marketing doesn't incentivize innovation, it tries to sell you an inferior product at a higher price.
I subscribe to Mopar Action magazine because it is full of ads promoting parts and accessories for my ancient Dodge.

How else am I supposed to find this stuff?

Many years ago, I'd buy Computer Shopper magazine because it had nothing but ads for computer parts and accessories.

Marketing is how buyers and sellers find each other. Buyers do marketing, too (hence "Wanted" ads). I get unsolicited offers in the mail to buy my house now and then. Employers looking to hire advertise.

I've talked with independent software developers now and then who had created a brilliant product, and lamented to me that nobody was buying it. I'd ask them what marketing they'd done, and they'd blanch and say marketing is evil and they didn't want to do it. Weeeelll, no marketing meant nobody knew about their brilliant product, and that's why nobody bought it. "Build it and they will come" is a stupid Hollywood myth.
Latin would be an example that more people might be familiar with.

There's a difference between "free ordering of constituent phrases", where you may rearrange subject noun phrases, object noun phrases, adverbial phrases and the verb into any order depending on emphasis etc., and completely free word order - like in the languages you mentioned - where "the little man walked through the big door" could end up as "man door through walked big little the the" or something like that, completely breaking apart what we'd consider "constituent phrases" in a language like English, where "the little man" etc. always move together in a sentence.
If you're using indentation to e.g. align method parameters then no, tabs would just make a mess out of it.
Jumping from chirpractic to psychiatry is a leap.

Lumping psychology and psychiatry together is also a leap.

> For me the biggest flaw in capitalism is that it tends to concentrate wealth over the long term, which in turn undermines the "wisdom of the crowd" principle market systems are based on by concentrating buying power in relatively few people.

Indeed! Related, my pet-peeve, is that consolidation eventually leads to monopolisation: concentrating selling power to relatively few companies. The current growth model of most tech-companies hinges on the monopolisation almost entirely.

Free markets have organisations and systems in place to protect against that; which clearly shows that a free market -in its current state- cannot operate effectively without outside intervention. These orgs are only now moving against the 20-th century monopolies, and doing so too late and too little (IMHO).

But, another clear flaw in capitalism and free markets, patched with centralised, planned governments intervening in those markets.
> This is exactly what I expected to read when I started reading. So many apps have done this to me that I'm now hesitant to install, and become dependent on, any new apps.

To provide a little context: Most developers have no choice but to do this. I've seen a lot of developers for the App Store getting broke because of Apple's refund policies. People are quick to click refund, but then the developer has to pay for Apple's 30% of the fees (and transfer costs).

Say, you sell an App for 10.00$. Apple gets 3.00$ of that when a user buys the App, and the remaining 7.00$ go to the developer's account. When the user is now unhappy with the app they can get a refund for the costs.

User gets 10.00$ back, but from the developer, which means the developer now has a net negative of -3.00$ (ignoring the accumulative bank transfer costs)

And no, there's no limit in how many people can scam an App developer on the App Store, which means that you could literally use millions in the case of a social justice thing that goes viral, which happened to quite some Indie game developers I personally have worked with and was a target of in the past because the target audience (kids, teens and the like) doesn't realize the damage they're causing with this. Kids think it's funny and it forces the Game developers to implement the features they so desperately want, but the result is that the developer is broke and legally so indebted that they won't be able to recover from this anyhow; certainly not when they are a private developer.
I mean the second case is generally discoverable for a programmer because there will documentation of a language or API. I believe people are generally aware of discoverability of documentation in 2021.
It looks like a billionairephobic dog whistle to me. Why is it necessary to emphasize that they aren't humans if what he means to refer to are corporations?

But here are some interesting stats for you. raspyberr thinks that "things with large amounts of money aren't humans and don't have morals". So let's consider the thing with the largest amount of money of all: the US federal government. The federal government's annual budget is almost 6 trillion, approximately 30 times that of Google Inc. Google gets 100% of its energy from renewable sources. The corresponding figure for the federal government is 10%. Shall we tax Google more? I'm not sure. Seems like we'd just transfer assets from a moderately amoral entity to one which is even more amoral.
> where does this assumption come from ?

From the fact that with exception of languages with significant whitespace/tab it's a matter of visual representation:

void foo() {
connect(this, action,
that, callback);
}

Perhaps I would prefer that my editor in this language, did this formatting. It doesn't change the meaning of the program.

> in practice it'll just be one key press as tools do the alignment. why would the number of whitespace chars matter at all ? what matters is that things are aligned.

This would be the same with tabs. But we go back to the same presentational aspect. If you prefer that it indents on the open parenthesis, and I that it indents on parent line start + 2 "visual" spaces we can't make an editor that covers both our preferences. With tabs, at least theoretically, we can, since the tab has no other meaning than an "indentation level" (which then translates into whatever it means "whitespace wise" for a given situation).

That sort of argument would need some extraordinary evidence, given the sort of chaotic, crime-ridden, violent state places without governments tend to devolve into.
You've basically reinvented DHTs but with the extra feature of supporting range queries, which this use case doesn't need anyway :)

DHTs still have bunch of limitations that doesn't make it suitable for a really global and humongous hash table. I think your skiplist would have the different problem of making queries and lookups inconsistent based on node uptimes and such.
This is basically the bread and butter of large parts of the consulting industry in Norway as well, although not quite as dysfunctional. Always be recruiting promising young engineers from university, pay them graduate salaries and bill them out at senior rates. Keep enough experienced engineers around to mentor them and ensure that the delivered product is good. Profit margin for each of these developers is excellent.

When they get enough confidence and experience to realize they're underpaid, they'll jump ship to a company that pays senior-level salary (but still bills at very similar rates!), or to a consulting firm that mostly pays commission.

Don't quite agree with myself whether this is an example of a gross inefficiency or just the logical way to train people.
I wasn't making a point about the claimed error. I was saying "think of what can be done in the future" is not relevant.
Everyone who inherited that sort of wealth was brought up and raised by billionaires, they were literally brought up in that worldview from the day they were born.

There is no such thing as an ethical billionaire, that's the whole problem, that such wealth can only be amassed by unethical means.
I'm pretty sure it's harder. We've known how to do physical security for a very long time, and humans are heck of a lot smarter at recognising strangers/intruders in a secure location where only familiar faces are permitted.
The act of marketing a good product isn't evil, but the marketing industry doesn't care about the quality of your product they will market whatever the highest bidder tells them to.
It already has success.

> What makes you think the usual precautions (cell lines, animal models, phase I, II, III trials) will not be taken as per usual?

You've skipped one of the usual phases, which is Phase IV trials. Cell lines -> Phases III trials aren't enough to catch long term side effects, because they are all done quickly.

An experimental mechanism passing Phase III trials is insufficient to prove it is safe. It proves that any negative events aren't evident quickly. The drug will probably prove to be safe in time, and I don't mind if people want to take that risk, I'm pretty free market. But it is, nevertheless, risky. We can't be confident that the body isn't using the same trick somewhere or somehow for something delicate that breaks quickly and shows symptoms slowly - biology is complex.

If the mechanism is novel then it wouldn't be suitable for a mass rollout to deal with this pandemic.
No. However its an excuse used here to not invest in it sometimes.
"It's added another digit and replicated the last digit, so if you were to have 17 milligrams, it would have prescribed 177 milligrams,"

Such an error seems possible only if treating numbers as strings, an error that would defeat a possible function to validate dosages according to the patient prescriptions and related min-max values.
I wouldn't use Windows for anything critical such as medical prescriptions, but honestly that looks more like sloppy programming.
Loot rates are not related to the world seed. The problem here was that he modified loot rate tables.

The problem is marketing influences our searching, even if we're not aware of it.

When you find something to eat at the farmer's market, your choice is largely influenced by the seller's marketing efforts: pricing, selection, her straw hat, or the fact that the best looking plump heirloom tomatoes are right in front of the stall. The farmer is telling you to buy her produce even before she speaks to you.

I believe that you only had to turn to marketing because the big established solutions continuously used marketing to remain big. If it weren't for online marketing, your access to market wouldn't have been by challenging the established brands with further marketing, but by providing extra value.

So your use of marketing ever only solved a problem established by marketing.

Which is good marketing for marketing, of course.
That data is either wrong or severely outdated. The Economist website [1] has Sweden's excess deaths per 100k at 102 (not 13).
While better than the US -- which was also not really locked down as other commenters state -- it is 5x worse than neighboring Finland, and infinitely worse than neighboring Norway and Denmark (which had negative excess deaths during the pandemic).

Lets put it this way. The RNG in Dream's version of Minecraft was acting so astronomically far outside of the norm, that we can't consider Dream's world record run as being valid. He was essentially playing a different game, and it would be absurd to give somebody a world record for the good fortune of playing on a busted version of Minecraft. The linked video is a response to the anonymous statistician associated with Dream.

Now, I think there's one explanation that's more likely than others as to how Dream ended up playing on a rigged version of Minecraft.
