At the time Windows had a >90% market share and there weren't mobile Internet devices so it should be held to a different standard.

That being said, I do think governments rush to action on tech issues where it's completely unnecessary.

I do agree the agree the government suit did play a role in browser tech languishing at MS. I honestly believe they didn't think they were doing anything wrong. After all, this was part of MS's "embrace, extend, extinguish" MO. They tried the same thing with Java. So after that it felt to me (as an observer) that MS didn't really know what to do.

Pompom does not offer inductive data types, instead, it provides static symbols (as in the LF framework or λΠ-Calculus Modulo). Of course, we do not use the rewriting foundation of these frameworks, however, we apply a usual unification algorithm to get the same power. There are a lot of things that need proper formalization in the core, but the intention of this work is not it yet. To be fair, not inductive data types as Coq/Agda.
A public good isn’t paid for by users. That’s part of how economists define that term, and why they make theories about how and when someone else ought to.

Can someone ELI5 how this is any different to what the current Coinbase API offers? https://developers.coinbase.com/api/v2

Reading through the entire Coinbase Cloud page and even going into the Coinbase Cloud Exchange docs (https://docs.cloud.coinbase.com/exchange/docs) doesn't make it clear what this offers over Coinbase's current API.
Despite the snark about the “other side” your proposed solutions are equally blind to the actual problem. Even if we had single payer(not to mention that places like Canada rely on the drug and treatment innovations from the US) that doesn’t fix the system. The problem is hospital billing and financial scams pulled by hospitals, a majority of health care spending goes to things that have nothing to do with health. I highly recommend reading The Price We Pay: What Broke American Health Care and How to Fix It to understand the real issues with healthcare in the US today.
You don't even need to imagine what would be this large UNIX vendor: Sun was the king of UNIX in the late 90s, and in large part it failed because of competition from open source Linux, which benefited Google, Apple, Amazon, and MS.

It's a pretty humbling experience to try though. Before you try it's not obvious why it would take this long, but all the little things really do eat up your time.
We haven’t “solved” user hostility because the industry still relies on user data collection and tracking on a massive scale with default opt in rather than opt out. Consumers are spooked by that and the industry has (by and large) failed to convince them of the utility of targeted advertising.

It’s the original sin of online ads that nobody really wants to address. Because of that, we have a lot of rather shady players in the industry making the problem even worse.

Land and Real Estate has other aspects of the demand aside from just "a roof over your head" though. Location and other factors play into it in a big way. For instance if you have a parcel of undeveloped land at a lakeshore, the supply isn't "all land available in the region", it's "All land along that lakeshore" which is a much smaller supply. And lakes are generally a desirable place to live, so the demand is likely high.

> Pompom language is so simple that you can implement it yourself just by looking in the source code (you can think that our language is the BASIC language of proof assistants).

List

Okay... BASIC is a high level language, and it's aimed at people who are not involved in sciences. If your goal is to have a high level syntax, and aiming it at people maybe outside of those with formal proof background, I think that's a big miss. The syntax is anything but BASIC, compounded by the choice of lisp.

"Calorie restriction for obesity treatment results in weight loss—initially—giving patients the impression they have conscious control over their body weight. But predictable biological responses oppose weight loss, including decreased metabolic rate and elevated hunger. Therefore, ongoing weight loss requires progressively more severe calorie restriction, even as hunger increases. Few people achieve clinically significant weight loss over the long term with this approach. Those who cannot might feel implicitly stigmatized as lacking in self-control."

Waiting for the classic Calories In Calories Out comment found in every HN post about obesity, that completely misses the mark every single time.

The human body isn't a tube and a simple machine that works on pure energy, but a complex chemical machine with feedback loops and multiple pathways, some more efficient, beneficial or just preferable than others, depending on genes, environment, food composition or health of the person in general.

What if, instead of starving yourself eating only salads and plain white rice because CICO, there's a better and more efficient pathway that doesn't affect the "I'm hungry" feedback loop as much?

Every time I hear "CICO" I cringe as it's an ignorant shutdown of the whole discussion and forgets we still have not completely figured out how the whole energy intake and expenditure system in the human body works.

It literally is experimental. We have never deployed an mRNA vaccine on this scale before. This is the first time it has been done. The standard years of testing vaccines traditionally go through has not happened with this one. So it is, undeniably, objectively, experimental.

It is literally gene therapy. While most vaccines present a neutered form of a virus for your immune system to safely respond to and develop antibodies that will be useful in counteracting the version of the virus in the wild, mRNA vaccines quite literally insert themselves into your cells and try to insert that "training" RNA code into your immune system artificially without your body doing it on its own terms. This is what gene therapy is.

The medical boards based their decisions on the empirical research that doesn't exist yet? That's wild, they're time travelers?
I like hydrogen. The idea that every personal vehicle should have 1000 pounds of lithium-cobalt-etc is crazy to me, that's before getting into super-trucks and 18 wheelers, then not to mention aircraft and cargo ships.

Currently a full time Architect and part time developer.

I've got more than a decade of dev experience and a bit over five years as an Architect leading the design and development on large enterprise projects.

In my side project with PerfusionMap, I am developing software for use in surgery to present patient haemodynamic data. I've completed development of a prototype of the software that is currently being tested by users. We're preparing for clinical trials and are about to begin working with the CSIRO to use machine learning to better understand our data.

To build the domain expertise for my work with PerfusionMap, I'm currently undertaking a biomedical science degree.

I'm focussing on medical genomics and molecular life sciences and intend to do postgraduate study in bioinformatics and computational biology.

Email: mailfromtheworld@gmail.com

Happy to consider full or part time work, as part time work will allow me to increase my study workload.
Yes there is enough media attention it may be overly skewed but it’s like coronavirus statistics, did they die of corona, oxygen deprivation, or inflammation? They said in the study that once that was taken out the stats are way less skewed to negative.
Kinda, we've been using wg on multiple servers (~10 atm) across two different networks to aggregate monitoring data from each.

It's possible that United States engineers still do this... but software "engineering" is famously (and self-deprecating-ly) not really "real engineering".

I say this as someone who programs, teaches programming/computer science, and has worked professionally as a software development engineer - the comment isn't made to denigrate anyone, but because software "engineering" doesn't have any certification / professional credentialing that "real" engineering (e.g., civil engineering) apparently does have.

Also - I'm curious about how effective it is to tell the engineers to do the right thing (even at the expense of personal gain). It seems like the people most responsible for making decisions that build harmful products aren't the ones who are actually tasked with building the harmful products. Does anyone have any information about how effective such training / indoctrination is in preventing bad situations from happening?

Sure, but that only works for the most trivial cases. The belt graph can be quite complicated, with loops comprising several segments. For cases like that you'd have to do cycle detection, which is totally not better than the 2nd algorithm.

I know an American civil engineer who has one of these rings: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineer%27s_Ring

Wikipedia says the oath that goes with it is:

I am an Engineer.

In my profession I take deep pride. To it I owe solemn obligations.

As an engineer, I, (full name), pledge to practice Integrity and Fair Dealing, Tolerance, and Respect, and to uphold devotion to the standards and dignity of my profession, conscious always that my skill carries with it the obligation to serve humanity by making best use of the Earth's precious wealth.

As an engineer, I shall participate in none but honest enterprises. When needed, my skill and knowledge shall be given without reservation for the public good.

In the performance of duty, and in fidelity to my profession, I shall give the utmost.

---

I get the impression this ring is not for "software engineers". I really dislike that term, I call myself a computer programmer to anybody who asks, regardless of the title my employer flatters me with. I think "software engineer" is leaching off the social prestige real engineers have earned for their professions. Prestige the software industry in general does not yet deserve. Programmers take jobs making shitty socially harmful products then deflect all blame to their employers, denying their own responsibility to society that oath describes.

I am sure there are some programmers who deserve it, but by in large, the term is used by companies to flatter code monkeys making gambling apps, spyware, social media skinner boxes, etc. I am not without sin here, so I refuse to call myself an engineer.
Puppy Pregnancy Syndrome: Men who are pregnant with dogs (2011)
I was stuck supporting IE6 for a lot of large organizations and was often in the loop on why they decided to stick with it. I never heard the ability to set strict group policies as a reason. What I mostly heard was internal web apps built for IE6 which needed to be updated to support IE8, and the incredible pain to actually get those update projects approved. There was also the one customer, a large bank, who had built a custom browser around the IE6 engine, and mandated its use for bureaucratic reasons.

I mostly solved our IE6 problem by moving over our web product to a single page architecture based on ExtJS in 2007. ExtJS had a browser abstraction layer, and as long as you built your screens out of its components you rarely had issues. The major pain points that remained were memory leaks (IE6 was a digital sieve, and SPA made it worse), and performance.
"Three currency reconversions since 2008 have resulted in the elimination of 14 zeros from the local currency. Venezuela will thus become the Latin American country to have eliminated the largest number of zeros from its currency, while the country has been going through a de facto dollarization for months. Analysts believe transactions in dollars make up for at least 70% of the country's operations."

Three zeros in 2008, five in 2018, six more now.

Where? No lisp here as far as I can see. Haskell you mean?

But this is BASIC and simple to follow (including the source code of the language) for people interested in type systems and languages, not for just anyway. If you scroll down you see then the calculus with the words simple as well. This means: for people interested in implementing this, it is a very simple implementation and that is correct indeed. Nice work!
