None of them are individual projects, all of those companies have several projects in Haskell. Standard Chartered, for one, have their own custom implementation of Haskell and it is used by dozens of developers across different projects.
FWIW I had fraudulent debit charges credited to my account the next day while under investigation. Though the experience was enough to pretty much stop using debit cards except for specific accounts that are not my primary.
The question to ask yourself is always 'if I prefix this with 'at scale' does that change the equation?'. And if the answer to that is a 'yes' then your online/offline analogy doesn't hold water.
One neat thing is that it has what I call the "oh shit button".

If you feel like you're going to crash, hit the button and disables manual mode, rights itself and hovers in place. Near immediately.

As long as you have your finger on that button (and practice using it), it is a pretty safe way to learn.

Best to go in manual mode with a bit of height and in an open area first too.
The fad treatments are "still medicine," but crucially are not generally approved of by the "mainstream medical establishment." This lack of approval is the key feature of these treatments.

How does it not apply here? Are you saying that no treatment (right now there are no standards of care for COVID-19) is not dangerous? If I recall correctly, that option is leading to people dying.
> I don't think astrology as a belief system is any wackier [...] than most mainstream religions.

Statements like these are problematic. Not only are there meaningful differences between religions that make them incommensurate in this context (e.g., a Catholic, while acknowledging that some glimmers of greater or lesser truth exist in all religions, will regard much of them as erroneous and even superstitious), but it seems you haven't done the philosophical due diligence here to make a sensible comparison.

For example, we have no reason to suppose that the relative positions of the planets has any effect on how things pan out. And additionally, from a Catholic perspective, not only is astrology generally taken to be superstitious (on account of its irrationality), but the impulse behind astrology is also taken to be evil. From the Catechism of the Catholic Church:

"All forms of divination are to be rejected: recourse to Satan or demons, conjuring up the dead or other practices falsely supposed to 'unveil' the future. Consulting horoscopes, astrology, palm reading, interpretation of omens and lots, the phenomena of clairvoyance, and recourse to mediums all conceal a desire for power over time, history, and, in the last analysis, other human beings, as well as a wish to conciliate hidden powers. They contradict the honor, respect, and loving fear that we owe to God alone” (CCC 2116)[0].

(N.b. the catechism is not a defense of these beliefs. I cite it only to show the Catholic position. Defenses can be found elsewhere, as well as pedagogical treatments like those in the Summa[1].)

The positions of the Church are rigorously defended over at least two millennia, some before that where natural theology and philosophy are concerned (the existence of God, for example, is knowable through unaided reason; the divinity of Jesus, on the other hand, requires faith in the sense that while the totality of evidence may be very strong in favor of that belief, it is not fully deducible in the way philosophical arguments for the existence of God are). To compare astrology to that intellectual tradition (I ignore here the petty superstitions particular Catholics might entertain) is ludicrous.

And part of due diligence is also an understanding of what constitutes an "empirical basis" and where and how it is an appropriate to draw on empirical observation. For example, does the claim "a belief P is reasonable if and only if there is an empirical basis for it" itself have an "empirical basis"? If so, in what way?

You mean, the customer eating the 3% fee? The merchant isn’t going to take the hit to their margins, the interchange fee is built into the price of what you are buying.
Do they even sell insurance for it, when it's nearly 100% sure it'll be used?

The consent and the data collected via the consent need to be linkable. That's why it makes sense to store consent records for identified users on the server-side, because you "know" the user in that case.

For pseudonymous users, e.g. those you track via a Google Analytics cookie you don't know who the user is and you (hopefully) can't reidentify them without the Google Analytics cookie. Since the cookie is stored in the users' browser it makes sense to also store the consent record there. If you would store that consent record on the server-side you'd still need a cookie in the users' browser to link the consent record to them.
That extra code will stand out as not having been reviewed.

Evidence does not remain scant. For instance - ever used Starbucks Rewards? Congrats, you used Haskell software built by more than "two buddies." Ever shop at Target? Congrats, the inventory was likely in the store to fulfill your demand in part thanks to Haskell software built by a team.

However, a large engineer org that brings in senior non-Haskeller engineers/managers/leadership is bound to run into political troubles imo. Those types tend to blame Haskell and use it as an excuse for rewriting and re-orging - hence giving them newfound power. This isn't FUD or a strawman. This is observed behavior of many "respected" "old heads" I've had to work with/for.

That's just my experience from 3 different companies lol :) You can build software at any scale with Haskell - you just have to actually like and want to use Haskell for its cultural and technical benefits. Sadly, a complainer at the top of the org chart who can't even read Haskell code can easily come in and force Haskell out. That's just facts.
OF COURSE

Haha, thanks!
For small systems, LVGL address all of these pain points. It works well with small amounts of memory, maintains a responsive, animatable UI that works over slower display interfaces, and is easy to port with only a small amount of driver code needed to get up and running.
Read about senescent cells & chemo. Also, some research shows chemo actually boosts metastasis. Anything targeted beats chemo. Maybe even focused beam radiation (SBRT).

You didn't say which type of cancer.

There is a company called Arvinas that is creating a new class of drugs that tags receptors for destruction by autophagy. Interesting and seemingly more effective than standard of care therapies. However, their targeting seems to be specific to certain mutations on these receptors. Have a look at the investor notes and presentations on their website for more details.
> Unpopular opinion but this is complete pseudoscience.

There was significantly more research put into this paper than thought put into your comment. You dismiss the entire paper using a bunch of hand-waving (with a few instances of emotional manipulation like "psuedoscience" and "it's a shame" and "are we seriously going to assume") and no actual arguments. If you cannot actually point to specific flaws with the experimental methodology, you definitely shouldn't accuse the paper of "psuedoscience".

> Starting with the notion that the most complex thing in the universe, someone's intelligence (high dimensionality), can be simplified down to a single number.

That assumption is never made in the paper. The authors use various tests (the Henmon-Nelson Test of Mental Abilities, the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery, the Edinburgh Reading Test, and the Friendly Maths Test) to provide numbers that they use as a proxy measurement for intelligence, but they never state that the two are equivalent. Moreover, just because our cognitive processes are extremely complex does not mean that you can't capture the majority of variance using a small number of measurements (which is, uh, how a lot of modern statistics works).

> Then throw in the effect of IQ being smaller than the difference between IQ tests for the same individual.

The authors do not use IQ as their sole measure of "intelligence", so this isn't relevant. There isn't even a single "IQ test"!

Moreover, even assuming that what you claim is true (because you didn't even provide a source), it's not really relevant - "proportion that measured IQ contributes to a specific kind of a success" isn't comparable with "variance between different IQ measurements for an individual" - operator<() isn't defined on those two types. Plus, all you're claiming is that it's hard to accurately measure IQ - which isn't relevant if the variance is 10% but we're curious about whether the difference between 90 and 110 IQ is significant.

> why do some countries have an average IQ of 70?

I think of at least two plausible reasons - malnutrition stunting intellectual growth at crucial stages in a human's development, and lack of education. Throwing a "Are we seriously going to assume" out there isn't an argument.

> Clearly there's more going on here.

If there is, you haven't pointed to it.

You've posted a bunch of generic comments in this thread that are generically dismissive of the topic. That makes for low-quality discussion, so it would be better to find an article that gratifies your curiosity and comment when you have something specific to respond to.

That’s really well put & I hadn’t thought of things that way before. I think the solution is very active moderation and barriers put in the place of new account creation. (Gotta rely on a community of people who already want to be a community.)
I guess you could mlock() your memory and see if that succeeds or fails. When overcommit is enabled no memory is really safe.

My condolences.

I suggest talking with a competent therapist experienced helping people in similar circumstances.

“Similar” because your grief is uniquely yours, yet there are therapeutic strategies that tend to help in a broad range of commonality.

One of those, which I am touching on here (my beloved has spent an adult life as a clinical social worker) is caring for the caregiver.

To be present for your loved ones, you have to be able to be present. Your healthy grieving is important for your loved ones well being.

Lastly, from decades as a “hospice spouse,” fighting to the end is not always the right choice for everyone.

I am going to die. You are going to die. Everyone is going to die.

For some people how they live matters more than how long. And there are people for whom fighting to the end is part of how they live.

Sometimes the hard thing is giving a loved one your support for the choice they make.

Again, my condolences on your loss.

Allocated-but-unavailable is a totally reasonable part of the memory hierarchy.

Main Memory
=> zswap (compressed memory)
=> swap

In this case, the pages may be logically allocated or not -- the assurance is that the data will be the value you expect it to be when it becomes resident.

Should those pages be uninitialized, the "Swapped" state is really just "Remember that this thing was all zeros."

We could do computing your way, but it'd be phenomenally more expensive. I know this because every thing we introduce to the hierarchy in practice makes computing phenomenally less expensive.
I think altering your diet and lifestyle to prevent heart disease (assuming it's non-heritable) is harder than getting two shots to prevent COVID.
The last time I built a team, I hired a spectrum of seniority. I needed the more senior folks to make good judgement calls and mentor the less experienced. I needed the less experienced to apply their coding skills to actually get the product built. I needed the team to be an effective "growth machine" for everyone at every stage of their career, and I wouldn't be able to do that if I couldn't (A) give senior people leadership (read: influence) opportunities and (B) give more junior people the guidance they needed to learn and develop.

I can see how a company, due to prior policies or ebbs and flows of the hiring pipeline could become either bottom-heavy or top-heavy. If you're not deliberate, with time you can easily become top-heavy, and at that point your options for giving more experienced people leadership opportunities have become restricted. When that happens, I can see how a deliberate hiring policy for a period of time might seem like a good way to correct it.

If managed well, it can be good for the existing experienced people because they will have more opportunities to grow their careers through mentorship and giving technical direction. It can be good for the future of the company because less experienced people will bring with them fewer biases and might help introduce good ideas that would otherwise be institutionally rejected.

And in the current market (at least), I'm not seeing any kind of shortage of demand across the industry for experienced tech folks. At least judging by the degree to which I'm being inundated by recruiters for senior tech positions.
You're saying hiding the discovery of novel, profitable, drugs because profits from the existing treatment is widespread?

I'm not saying the pharma companies pursue all possible opportunities to research/create new drugs, just that it's ridiculous to think if they did find one, they would suppress that information. It seems conspiratorial.

The Orphan drug act or incubators you link don't contradict the point I'm trying to make, but maybe that's on me.

Amazon is like this, and it's part of why I think I never worked out well. Too much process. Compounding the pain was the fact that my instinct would always be to whip up a proof-of-concept demo instead, for the next meeting.

Management hated that, and to this day I don't get why. I recognize the need for things to be reviewed by others, and we all can lose scope of what's important sometimes. I'm no exception. However, for things that are purely technical/scientific arguments, what's gained by me having to use the Official Template (tm) to propose an idea, and spending days messing with words and bullet points, rather than a demo that you can see with your own eyes?

It also struck me as quite hypocritical. On the one hand, professing to have a "bias for action", then on the other hand harshing on people for preferring action over another TPS reports.

I think it's annoying that some pages do it one way on some the other; With 16:10 1920x1200 displays, I often run my windows (including the browser) in a vertical tile, but then about 1/3 of pages seem to think I'm on a mobile phone since the resolution is 960x1200 and they make everything giant and hide half of the controls.

> I should either have a right to do something, or not have that right.

Should you have the right to watch which direction I'm going when I pass by at an intersection?

How about at the next intersection?

And the one after that, and the one after that, and the one by my home, and all the ones that I happen to go by when I next leave and go somewhere?

There's no single point at which passive observation turns into stalking but we still have laws against stalking and it's still perfectly ok and legal for you to watch where I'm going. If you understand why it's ok to look around you (and perhaps even take notes or draw what you see, snap a photo) but not OK to do that systematically around someone, you should also understand why we might want to restrict automated unwarranted and consentless data collection, even if taking some notes is OK.

The other thing is scale. Laws against seemingly minor things are enacted when that thing becomes widespread enough to upset many people. You probably don't upset people too much by taking some notes in a shop. If every shop had a fleet of staff dedicated to the same thing, that probably would upset people and lead us to a similar discussion.
Maybe they just don't want to hire overtly racist or sexist people who might threaten their diversity? It doesn't have to be political obsessions. How many stories have we had here about companies that had a toxic culture with overt sexism? If you want to prevent that sort of thing, having someone who's job it is to prevent that sort of thing might help.

I honestly don't know what the reason for it is, but I do tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. I suppose it could also just be meaningless theatre. If people have real-life experience with diversity managers, I'd love to hear them.
I second that. After decades of rolling stuff by hand I recently did a project based on LVGL. It's highly configurable, easy on the resources, properly documented and all. I had some troubles with getting the layout to do what I want, but with the latest release that has been solved with the new CSS-like layouting mechanism.

Recommend, would use again.

New antibiotics for one -- if they make a new one that has no resistances in the wild yet, doctors would avoid prescribing it as long as possible, only after all older drugs are tried, so the usage would be extremely low. Nobody wants to sink a few billion into something like that.

A review corresponds to a particular version number. But the review process does not need to start from scratch with each version number increment. Reviews from previous versions can be leveraged to lessen the workload.
Especially in the Bay Area. If you do, I recommend a move to some Pennsylvania farm country where you can have a good life and a good school district. No better life available.
Cash management is also very expensive for most merchants. There are effectively 3 reasons merchants might prefer cards to cash these days a) their volume is so low that cash management is not an issue (that is the transaction fees) b) their margins are so low on a particular item that the transaction fee eats all of it but the broader business still uses credit cards or c) they do not want an electronic record of the sale.
Embedded systems (the ones where you would disallow malloc) don't generally have virtual memory by virtue of having no MMU, so on those you can't do overcommitment since there is no page fault mechanism.

No, the reason is simply that by statically allocating all memory you can avoid entire classes of program faults and bugs. There are no memory leaks and you don't need to solve the NP-complete problem of "is there an execution path where a dynamic memory allocation will fail". Keep in mind that it is not just about the total amount of dynamically allocated memory, but also the order of allocations (and frees).
No, it's worse than that - the answer is "yes", because virtual memory + overcommit means that most of the time the OS will happily allow you to allocate more memory than physical+swap, and essentially gamble that you won't actually need all of it (and this is implemented because apparently that's almost always a winning bet).
