Scientists have long aimed to discover meaningful formulae which accurately describe experimental data. One common approach is to manually create mathematical models of natural phenomena using domain knowledge, then fit these models to data. In contrast, machine-learning algorithms automate the construction of accurate data-driven models while consuming large amounts of data. Ensuring that such models are consistent with existing knowledge is an open problem. We develop a method for combining logical reasoning with symbolic regression, enabling principled derivations of models of natural phenomena.

A large part of it is the long term NIMBYism that has plagued the area.(driven by that wealth gap you mention) Bay Area is beautiful to live in, it makes sense why so many choose to settle there, but many people want to restrict that access or make it more difficult.

Compound that over time, and you get what SF is. (The same is happening in other cities like Seattle). It’s heartbreaking that for so long the systemic issues of these places went ignored. From my understanding there is change, but it’s only come once problems like homeless have reached a tipping point instead of the resident preemptively addressing it years/decades ago.
I'm confused. Why is any of this happening? What are the motivations behind the people putting up all these barriers?
Why do you want a string reverse?

- Do you want to reverse bytes, or codepoints?

- Do you want to reveres codepoints, or grapheme clusters?

- Do you really want to reverse grapheme clusters, or do you want to reverse some grapheme clusters while leaving e.g. sequences of control characters in the same order?

- Do you really want to reify any of this rather than iterate backwards in the existing memory?
Another World
Actually learning programming is a start for going into another world. And this is the reason for writing our first program with a name "Hello, world.".

But this is not the only reason and actually the main reason of this work turns to 1973 when Brian Kernighan (the writer of a famous book in C language with name "A Tutorial Introduction to the Programming Language B") used "Hello, world" in his program. And when he was asked that why he uses this text, he answered that I forgot. And since then, no one can prove why it has become so popular.

> With crypto, it is so hard to know what it’s actual value should be, since unlike a stock there are no earnings

Your second part there gives a very good hint to your problem in the first part. Of course, in some sense there is some value in facilitating child porn and other illegal activities and some value in burning fossil fuels for mining (the value may be positive or negative). I am still pretty confident that if you just round "actual value" to zero - and use the possible error to keep you away from shorting the market - that is in the long run the valuation that gives you the best quality of life.

Even if you bought a few bitcoins $20, who’s to say you wouldn’t have sold at $40? Easy to think “what if I bought”, but really, would you have hold it until 50K? Quite unlikely!

I don’t know any millionaires from crypto. I know people who are loud when market is up and very silent when it’s down. May be they were millionaires on paper at some point. Highly doubt they sold everything at the right time and became actual millionnaire. But sure, it did happen for many.
Wow.

"While Covid deaths overwhelmingly afflict senior citizens, absolute numbers of non-Covid excess deaths are similar for each of the 18-44, 45-64, and over-65 age groups, with essentially no aggregate excess deaths of children."

Wow, so there were as many non-Covid excessive deaths as there were Covid deaths.

That's a high price to pay.

Yeah but the car isn't taking 100kV - the battery packs nowadays use 400 or 800V. Even at 800V that's 7500 amps.

Also the power needs to be converted from AC to DC too, and that's not a 100% efficient process either.
Lots of people complain about companies being toxic, but they give advice that you shouldn't act on it.

Most of them tell, that, because "you may burn the bridge". We're working in industry where it's hard to open fridge without encountering a recruiter - why would you care? Because you may, maybe miss single opportunity to earn 20% more in the future?

Then we can assume that people are simultaneously, so repulsed with company, they are unable to give professionally sounding feedback and considering going back for mediocre raise?

Guess what is the status quo originating from that. Also I have little hope for humanity if, even in so comfortable position we prefer not to act, due to some distant minor risks.

Disclaimer: Mostly through my career I've been on receiving end of the exits. I took all of them seriously and acted on many. If someone wasn't re-hireable we usually have known long before the exit interview.

Especially with amazon breaking the law via union busting using dirty and outright illegal tactics.

Well I have -2 diopters glasses for myopia, started wearing them around the age of 30 I think (I am now 44). I never use them when reading, effectively they bother me. But have to use them when using the computer monitor, otherwise it's either blurry or have to get too close for comfort. It's a continuous "put the glasses" when looking at the screen, take the glasses when scribbling a paper or reading a book / phone. Got used to it.

Also don't use them while walking, they bother me. I feel like my eyes dry out or something, very unpleasant. It's a bit blurry but don't really notice it, also -2 is not really advanced myopia. I can't read car plates from the distance but I sure see the car coming and know not to bump into people.
There's already a model for this. Crowd-sourced journalists via Patreon etc.

Even in my small country (~3mio pop), people manage to make a cushy living on this. E.g. covering iffy cases of corruption and neglect that ain't reported much (if at all) on mainstream media. In many cases because media if afraid to loose advertisement money from related business structures.

What has Amazon done to the society that's worsening?

If you ask a Bay Area software engineer, they'd give some feel good answer about how they love overpriced mom & pop shops and Amazon is to blame for their demise.

But, to overwhelmingly large portion of customers of Amazon, the middle class, it has provided an unthinkable amount of value. If it didn't, they'd stop using it. It is doing even more in developing countries.

And we're just talking about Amazon store.
At my university IFC did have authority off campus. You would register your off campus address with the university. Even by the early 2010s the rules were downright fascist which made them completely unproductive imo. The univesity argued any gathering of more than 3 people in a student org constituted a student org event. Therefore, a sober game of smash bros with four greek players in a single bedroom in an off campus would be considered an event worthy of registration and inspection from IFC (obviously the letter of this law would never be followed because it couldn't practically be followed nor even enforced, but served to shift liability should anything happen at the smash bros match). IFC would have hearings for incidents that would happen at places like bars all the time too (mostly underage drinking but the occasional fist fight as well).

If you work for a company, in any field, and they don't supply the tools for you to do your job, they are doing them selves a disservice.

If you want your employees to be productive, you provide them tools to achieve that, otherwise you get what you pay for.

It's the Companies that are acting entitled in this situation, not the workers.

I don't get why there isn't a function to remove element from a slice (there's some append[:i],[i+1] trick instead) why wouldn't this be wrapped in a stdlib function? call it delete or something. I keep hearing good things about the stdlib - what am I missing?

> Well, for example transformers are ~98% efficient, AC lines lose around 7% per 1000 km. So with three transformers between you and the power plant and a ~300 km distance, you lose around 8% between the power plant and you.

That's not how it works because it's assuming a point to point connection for your use case. In reality there is the grid, and from everything I know transmission losses from whichever source to your socket over that grid average out to 50% best case, to about only one third reaching the destination. The latter for instance for electrified rail.
The union may turn out bad/corrupt, but we already know that Amazon already is.

The previous behavior of the company is all the reason one should need to scrutinize anything they say/do with a magnifying glass and to never give Amazon the benefit of the doubt. That was forfeited by them long ago.

According to FoHo's sources, Band's traditions are the focus of the investigation. These include Band's annual Dollie Day, where each potential Dollie (essentially a Band dancer) is interviewed by Band (picture that for a second). Questions apparently included “What’s your favorite sex position?” and “Who in this room would you hook up with?”. Other aspects of the Investigation (obviously) focus on parties "organized alcohol consumption" and reasonably explicit "bus chants," including such choice lyrics as “a whale she wanted, harpooned she got,” and "he walked into the store, batteries he wanted, my double D’s he got.”

Plantation owners in the South also improved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people by providing cheap cotton that made the switch to modern clothing possible. They forever changed the world as well, and made gigantic fortunes because of it.

Of course, just like Bezos, it wasn't the plantation owners providing the cheap cotton, it was the work of their slaves doing so - they only provided some direction and made some managerial decisions.

Of course, Bezos doesn't treat his workers as badly as the plantation owners treated their slaves - I'm not trying to say that Amazon workers are treated as badly as the disgusting inhumanity of the slave trade.

The general idea is that the entirety of Amazon's success is to be attributed to its workers, not to its owners. Bezos of course has an important contribution, probably higher than any other individual worker - but in his capacity as worker, not owner. As he is no longer a CEO, his contribution to Amazon's new successes is 0 or close to it, even if he remains a major shareholder.

Of Amazon's millions of employees though, only a small handful became rich, and only one became a billionaire. This is the issue here: Bezos is an important part of Amazon, but his profits from its growth are completely, mind-boggling disproportionate compared to all other workers for Amazon. The designers of AWS, the people who negotiated the network of distribution contracts, the marketing and sales people etc - all of them are only getting scraps of the value they have created. The warehouse workers of course are not even getting scraps.
I didn't see your original post. But I'm delighted to hear that things have improved.

There's no doubt that stress in your career can lead to stress at home. Certainly, when I'm stressed about my work (or when my wife is stressed about hers), it can be difficult on our relationship. And then, as they say, you have two problems. Moreover, it can feel hopeless.

So many people say that you have to work for a big, famous company, with huge compensation packages. But once you're getting paid well, there are other important things: Do you care about the work you're doing? Are you treated decently at work? Do they give you responsibility, and the power to make decisions?

There are oodles of people out there making good wages at companies we've never heard of, working with people they like, on projects they believe add value to the world. Such jobs aren't glamorous, and won't make the front page of the newspaper, but it doesn't matter.

I love my work. I feel fortunate to do what I do. And when I tell people this, they are often taken aback, and say, "Wow, you're really lucky. I don't like my work; I just do it for the paycheck." So if you have this kind of excitement, energy, enjoyment, and fulfillment from your new job -- then you've won, as it were. You should feel good about this, and should consider yourself among the rare, fortunate folks in that situation.

In short, it's great to hear about someone who has found satisfaction in their work. And if that satisfaction has improved your marriage? All the better.
"Progressive" isn't just a single spectrum, there are at least two axes: social and economic. Amazon is definitely socially progressive, but it doesn't look like that carries across to their economic politics.

It's not the thing propping up crypto prices. DAI is relatively small ($6.5B mcap), DAI is also partly backed by USDC [1], which is backed by cash and US government bonds (held at Circle) so it would be extremely difficult for DAI to lose collateral backing faster than keepers could liquidate positions. Does DAI have an influence on the $1T crypto industry? Of course, but its liquidity pales in comparison to USDC, USDT, and BUSD (~$100B between them). If the market is crashing, it's doubtful DAI is the culprit (as it's actually a solid, battle-tested protocol that already lived through the Covid crash and '18 and '19 severe drawdown and many other trying market scenarios).

But what you say is true of all debt markets. Debt has an inflating effect on the price, and when those debts get wiped off from liquidations, it can have a cascading affect in the opposite direction from that on the way up. That is precisely what happened to the real estate market in '08. People didn't think the real estate market could go down in terms of price. And yet, it did, and we had a major financial crisis as a result as real estate prices drew down 50% or more in some areas and foreclosure supply flooded the market.

And that's before you even touch whether there's enough liquidity in the different coins listed to put your $100k (or whatever) in at that cheap early price and get your millions out at the high price.
exactly my thoughts. these is pretty much a copy
Outrage sells. The National Enquirer's entire business model has used this for the past 50+ years. The big difference is that the major news centers have copied that model and the author's thesis that it's a response to the move online makes sense.

But there is something about online discourse that attracts extreme opinions like mice to cheese. This really dawned on me when I checked out the subreddit r/decaf for people quitting coffee.

I mean, how extreme could a subreddit like that be?

Well, it turns out, incredible extreme. It's nothing but posts about "caffeine is just heroin" and "we need to ban this dangerous drug" and "I'm pretty sure caffeine caused my skull fracture".

It's this bizarre mix of every extreme view you could imagine, obsessive thoughts, anxiety and hypochondria. And posters just feed off of each other.

And I was just curious to read some dull opinion about "my sleep is better when cut down to 1 cup of coffee a day".

> In theory, the first player only needs to split $999999/$1. $1 is better than nothing for the second player, so if he was perfectly selfish and rational, he would accept the offer.

An important point is that this is only true if there can only be one offer and no chance of re-negotiation. Player 2 knows that their cooperation has value, and has negotiating power because of it.

How?

It isn't like your eyes are healing or anything. This isn't what we are doing with glasses because your eyes aren't injured. Using glasses is more akin to using crutches when your leg simply will never work - neurological disorders, permanent disability, and so on. The crutches help you get along. Or maybe you aren't using crutches, but instead a brace for drop foot or some other sort of support.

What you are referring to is something that will heal - an injury. And crutches are good when you are healing, too - those times you do not want to put weight on a leg. In these cases, you don't want to use crutches too long lest you have atrophy or stiffness. But this isn't like glasses at all: In this case, for eyes, you'd use things like a temporary, protective contact and/or an eye patch (There may be cases for glasses, but I'm a layperson and simply cannot think of any right now)

There definitely is a limit, but most certainly there are a ton of temporary limits. You need more workers, which are limited (the US is basically at full employment), you need new factories (which take time to build), you need to factor in if the increased demand is sustainable (otherwise you wouldn't build it).
I tend to counter in a different way:

YES, I knew about Bitcoin a couple of years before I invested in it.

YES, I could have made a significant return during that time.

YES, I should have investigated it further at that time, instead of focussing on other things.

YES, I made a risk/return analysis at that time, and felt that the risk of investing was too high, even if I didn't do my due diligence.

Everyone, at every time makes a decision to either invest or not invest in something at any point in time, even if that decision is subconscious. I can feel bad about making that decision, but I did make it. My risk/reward appetite just wasn't high enough.
