The suggestion did make me laugh, so I guess the task failed successfully?
english is not esperanto. it happens to be the native language for a significant part of the world population, and they have no obligation to accept its bastardization for the sake of inclusivity.

in every non-western country with its own language, those "some" would get rightfully ridiculed.
Nice idea, but way too difficult. Is the first level even possible? It seems like there is no way to get the horizontal blue piece past the red square.

The second level is quite tricky but solvable. I think you need some simpler levels to work up to the first one. At least put the second one first.
I think there are ways to make money that are socially negative value -- e.g., theft is a pretty obvious one, or bitcoin mining.

House flipping isn't a social negative. They're doing a productive activity and producing value. They aren't long-term speculators removing housing stock from the market. It's essentially home renovation, done by a 3rd party owner.
Can you not imagine how useful it is to know user data e.g. what neighborhoods receive the most clicks, what type of homes generate the most favorites, how long people view one listing vs. another, … that is unrelated to public MLS data?

i think that's SOP for large vehicles. Sometimes you'll find a trucker or heavy equipment op in a car and they'll flash their lights, make space, and sort of escort you through the lanes. Most of the time, you just change lanes and let the other, more nimble, cars react to it.

My understanding is that they believed they had an advantage in terms of buyer intent information. Everyone can see who buys what, but Zillow has access to more information about how people shop for homes, and the events leading up to the actual sale.

Logical pursuit is not the only mode of pleasure for us, but it is one of the most profound. It's like starting with a single brick and building a castle, and we want to show our friends the castle and, even more impressively, how we went from single brick to castle. Sharing the pleasure of appreciating this sort of thing is a basis for deep friendship. Just "being there", going to parties or watching football games or whatever it is normies do with their friends -- it's something some of us can do, but it does not forge such deep or strong bonds for us.

LINQ GroupBy() is the most common use I can think of. I would definitely look into that as it's a nice tool to have. Otherwise, keep them in mind if you're ever pulling data from an external source (SQL, JSON, GQL, Redis, etc) and you're annoyed about having to make a class for some trivial operation.

If a library doesn't have an API for using them with generics, you can paper over that with:

Quite a lot of regulations have nothing to do with safety. Minimum set-backs, minimum parking requirements, maximum building heights, etc. All of these add cost and reduce density.

Single-family zoning is another local government policy that is absolutely intended to constrain development, not improve safety.

This is how we loaded our vehicles onto train when I was in the US Army. Everything from small vehicles to large trucks. There were removable pieces connecting the cars so they could be driven over.

Ok, the example wasn't clear enough. Lets take the more real world example:

Parent Organisation: I don't think you should do that, it isn't a good way to pick books.

Maybe, but I was under the impression that Redfin/Trulia/Realtor.com would have the same information.

Also, unless Zillow started imposing confidentiality agreements on their bids, then competing buyers would just have to bid $1 more without their dataset, right?

It depends on how niche your tastes are, or how specific you are about quality. Getting Blu-Ray REMUX files for smaller, forgotten movies on public trackers is nigh impossible in my experience. Meanwhile, private trackers gives the community incentive to seed these large torrents with tiny swarms.

It's common worldwide: #708 on this list of the 1000 most-common surnames in the world:

https://forebears.io/earth/surnames

That's higher than 'Serrano', 'Meyer', 'Murphy', 'Parker', 'Çelik', 'Banerjee' - names I picked from the many other options because I know people with all those surnames who I'd not want to curse with a same-named disease variant.

Excluding many thousands of common given names, surname, place names, etc makes sense.
This is a well written argument, and I don't disagree with the majority of it. However, there is one key point that I do disagree with, and makes the rest of it moot:

>* There is a large pool of potential volunteers that don't (want to) wear masks anyways. Adults have the right to volunteer for risky activities, including activities that may result in death.

This is certainly true. But the difference is that once we begin performing medical studies that ask this of people, the medical industry is now complicit in adults performing risky activities that may result in death and is asking people to do so, or if doing so, to do so for the benefit of medical research. This is a line that has not been crossed by the modern medical research industry as it has been long decided that this extra pressure, however small, is a lever they do not want to pull because it is fundamentally incompatible with 'Do no harm.'

It isn't 'do no harm, except a little when we think it might outweigh the downsides'

It's a line I don't think we should cross. I understand why someone would disagree with that.

Since the latest iOS minor version (some time in the last month or so), certain models of AirPods are integrated in the Find My network, meaning if you lose them, other (participating) iPhones in the area (~1b worldwide) will report their location as they go past.

I really liked this quote, which is also true of machine learning organizations at large tech companies:

The most valuable data is not social data, ... but your own data because every dataset that you’re looking at internally describes your own process, including your bugs, ... building models from your own data is the only way to build a really successful system.

This is one thing that a lot of outsiders do not understand. Facebook/Google's data is basically worthless to anybody but Facebook/Google. The data has value because it is derived from their own processes, which in this case are the requests and context of each product surface.
societies that believe "don't talk to the police" and "snitches get stitches" are going to have most murders go unsolved. Eventually that leads to vigilante justice and private mafias offering protection, while law abiding people flee.
Cosmetic stuff, square footage requirements, height requirements, parking requirements. Basic structural engineering, fire safety, etc. requirements of course would stay but if local code is more stringent than national you might take a look at it (e.g. things like a local code requiring copper pipes when PVC is acceptable and much cheaper).
No, that's not the issue.

The issue is that their machine learning model can't possibly be 100% accurate, there will be some amount of error that is shaped in a normal curve.

If their model overestimates the market value, they end up massively overshooting their goal price of "slightly less than market value", the seller accepts and they lose money. If their model underestimates the market value, they will offer way too little and the seller will go elsewhere.

Even if they get their estimates right 99% of the time, the 1% of cases where they get it wrong will slowly drain money out of the scheme.

Well, if it’s really only among the unvaccinated - let them live with their decision.

If I made the choice to not get it, and this is happening with it spreading everywhere, I am continuously choosing the risk over getting the vaccine. Everyone else who has the vaccine shouldn’t be affected by my choice.

While the point the article makes is true — it costs money to acquire the real world data, the comparison to credit underwriting is misguided. Underwriting credit is fundamentally different than predicting house prices.

In particular when you’re auto-underwriting credit it’s not typically an origination-for-sale model. So the value of the loan is the present value of the future payments, less the future value of defaults, less the cost of acquiring the customer.

Historically those things can be modeled pretty accurately and the aspects that can’t be modeled accurately can often be hedged or eliminated by the law of large numbers. The innovation of the new ML underwriting with respect to accuracy is at the margins. The real disruption is the speed and cost. (Disclosure: I worked at a SMB fin tech and we reran multiple credit models for a million customers and past customers every night.)

If Zillow were getting into the rental business, in some ways it might have been easier for them. But they needed to model where they could sell an illiquid asset which is a much harder and much less well understood problem. And yes with enough capital to plow through and the appropriate risk attitude they could likely have gotten the handle on what their pipeline was really going to look like. But it’s hardly the same problem as credit underwriting.
Zillow thought they already had enough data and accurate enough models to buy and sell houses profitably. The last two quarters proved they didn’t. In the first quarter they were puzzled by making too much money and in the second they lost a whole bunch

The author is arguing that they should have pivoted from “we already have models” to “we’re intentionally gambling hundreds of millions of dollars so we can build good models over the next few years”. That might be a good strategy for a startup with loads of VC money and no other products, but it makes less sense for a more established company to risk going under on that bet

Flippers also reduce the supply of housing units for the time they are unoccupied, which could be months or years, especially when sold to other flippers. More liquidity is not necessarily a good thing for the housing market, as it tends to increase the number of speculators on the market, contributing to a vicious cycle where more homes are being flipped between speculators than actually occupied by people who need them.

It pains me to watch people apply simplistic theoretical laws of supply and demand to something as complicated as housing. The map is not the territory. There are massive costs to increasing supply, as well as psychological/community costs to moving homes, which are not cleanly captured in any Economics 101 textbook.
The key take-away here is that he used a completely separate reporting system from the rest of the company. The implication that it's relatively obscure hardware was a shield to scrutiny is beside the point. Madoff was in charge and if he said this system will be separate that's what it would be no matter what it was running on.

It's probably the architecture he started with in the 1980's/1990's and just kept rolling with it.

And wall street algorithms should be easier because securities are fungible. One share of AAPL is the same as another. Houses are not like that. Real estate is local, local, local. Every house has a hundred unique attributes that each potential buyer will value differently.
"... incidence started growing exponentially in October 2021 with about 41% of recorded new cases aged twelve or above being symptomatic breakthrough infections, presumably also contributing to the dynamics. At the time, it (i) remains elusive how significant this contribution is and (ii) whether targeted non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) may stop the amplification of the ongoing crisis."

So despite just over half of adults being vaccinated, and just under half of new cases (in adults) being vaccinated "breakthrough" cases, they estimate that it's the unvaccinated spreading covid? Makes no sense unless they're blaming the kids and lumping in with the unvaccinated.

I mean I’m not a fan of advertisements myself but I don’t find the whole Apple products in Ted Lasso overwhelming compared to most other shows and movies. I mean any time someone is on a phone or laptop obviously it’s gonna be an Apple product. Other shows and movies always find a way to more awkwardly shoehorn something in and call attention to it other than just being a prop. Or the new trend to advertise is to make a joke out of the product as if that wasn’t the plan all along, like Ryan Reynolds hocking his liquor in Free Man or daytime tv shows joking about products.
It's really very much like lego: the virus is a three-dimensional shape that fits certain elements on cells where it docks and enters. Antibodies are also shaped to to fit into some spot on the virus' surface. When the virus evolves, it changes its shape and, due to evolution, these changes tend to be in its favor.

Practically, it probably means a loss of about 3-4 months, i. e. the winter will be more like last year's than we might have hoped. Your vaccination is almost certain to still be effective in saving your life, but infection and retransmission could move from an exception to a rather common event.

I'd expect an update to the vaccines becoming more urgent now, and with all the resources that have been directed at the first round of that effort, the process will be quite fast, especially in the manufacturing stage. So: new vaccine around

Well, have you ever run into the

x = some_long_expression
+ another_long_expression

problem? In Python you need to be careful to wrap that in () or use a \ before the newline to avoid it parsing as two lines, e.g.

x = some_long_expression;
+ another_long_expression;

In particular, if you have a builder expressions

let x = someBuilder()
.setVal(x)
.build()

You'd need to wrap the entire thing in () to avoid it getting mad, right?

So if you're going to terminate expressions with ), and start them with (, why not just terminate them with ; instead?

Javascript is a "Semicolons Optional" language, but it's actually the worst of both worlds, as you have to be very careful not to wrap lines like

function() {
some stuff;
return
really_long_named_thing;
}

As it'll just insert a ; on the return, returning undefined for you.

> I thought it was “led”

It is "led". I notice the web using "lead" for both the present and past forms a lot--presumably because it sneaks past spelling checkers and autocorrect. (There's also a correspondence to "read" (long e) where "read" (short e) is also the past tense. Yeah, welcome to English.)

And, I'm almost sorry for pointing it out if you haven't noticed it. Once you do notice it, you see it everywhere and it's a big, jarring speedbump when you read.
Try using Go for any serious math project, then do the same using Julia. Report back as to how both approaches went :P. From someone who uses both languages for very different tasks regularly, I would never try to write Torch from scratch in Go. I can't envision a way for it not to be a serious maintenance or performance disaster. Maybe that's a lack of my own creativity, but I'd much sooner use C++ rather then write any large portion of it in Go. If only for template generics...

Love the subject.

Also had to chuckle, even though it is not the same thing, because it reminded me of the first time I experienced a paper avalanche. Several years into my adult life, somehow unprocessed papers and bills had stacked up so high that they went sliding into an avalanche, burying other stuff beneath them. It somehow felt like a milestone in life.
Everybody else is affected as well, as unvaccinated people fill up ICUs which aren't available for non-COVID related cases anymore.
