Common issues you face when getting a heat pump:

* Few suitable places to install it

* Lack of qualified workers to install it

* Limited availiability of heatpumps

* Conventional heaters do not work well with heat pumps. Floor heating is preferred and also not easy or cheap to do

* Not enouch capital to finance it, despite it making economic sense.

I got one, it's great and they should replace oil and gas heating for sure. But these problems can keep people away from them.

What's a "what's"?
None of the taste you're experiencing is from truffles. The truffle piece and juice could be completely removed.

Worse, they're almost certainly lying: there's probably not truffle juice at all.

The oil? Probably mostly soybean.
A more specialised variant that's also quite common is the "window watchdog" peripheral, which is similar to the timer version, but will also trigger a reset if the keep-alive signal arrives too early, as well as too late.

It can be useful where you've got a mainloop doing some very predictably timed activities, and allows detection of faults which cause your watchdog servicing to occur too frequently.

I think it's quite common in DSP and things like motor control, where you often have hard realtime requirements and things happening too soon is just as bad as too late.
Generally I think with the cheaper ones, you just use the heatpump instead. Without the old pipes.

While this article is mostly focused on collecting/gathering/visualizing cohort metrics, rather than on analysis, I would like to plug my college professor Peter Fader’s research on empirical Bayes modeling and analyzing Customer Lifetime Value.

One thing I learned from his class is that survival rates will naturally trend upward over time, which marketers erroneously attribute to (1) improving the product, (2) better customer service, (3) network effects / lock-in, etc.

However, if you have a heterogeneous customer base with latently better and worse customers, inevitably your worse customers will churn before your better customers, showing that “decrease” in churn.

These models also let you do cool things like conditional expectation: “if a customer has survived 13 months, what’s the probability they churn in the 14th?”

Here’s a paper of his from 2004: https://repository.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=141...

Why don't people just spend $10k and have their problems vanish? (and don't quote me the cost of a heat pump, you have to also pay to rip out your old stuff)

They don't have $10k

Article says it's the same compound. So truffles also smell like gas.
So respond here - since I seem so smart - and lets have the discussion. Otherwise you're dicking off because you don't want to engage with the content.

I engaged at your request, and this is the best you can do... run away while claiming you're correct?

Hardly a compelling response. Again - my firm belief is that if we weren't raising them as livestock - many of them would be borderline extinct. So I've defined welfare as "they are alive, and here, and my children can interact with them." Hopefully - we can continue to move those livestock into better conditions as we become more wealthy as a society.

You're defining it as "how dare we make something bleed". I think your definition is childish.

All in all it's good to see the market react by cutting consumption. You may hate this post but the reality is that it's the only way forward, subsides will only increase the price without doing anything about the problem.

It's not necessary. It is empirically useful.

Mathematics is about describing possible worlds. Given these assumptions (including the rules of the game), what follows?

Science is about figuring out the real world. The real world has no obligation to be describable by mathematics. That it is so describable is fortuitous.

"The miracle of the appropriateness of the language of mathematics for the formulation of the laws of physics is a wonderful gift which we neither understand nor deserve. We should be grateful for it and hope that it will remain valid in future research and that it will extend, for better or for worse, to our pleasure, even though perhaps also to our bafflement, to wide branches of learning."

> They have an artificial truffle flavor called 2,4-dithiapentane

It's the same compound that's found in the truffle. We found somewhere else to extract it, but we don't make it from scratch.

I suppose, then, truffles are just artificially flavored.
Absolutely. I always thought I hated truffles until I was more or less forced into trying a few dishes while visiting Italy.

Real truffles taste almost nothing like the fake truffle flavor you seem to get in most dishes. I think you made a great comparison to fake watermelon flavor vs. the real thing. It's only in the vague ballpark.

I now will have a truffle dish if it's done at a very high end establishment that deals with those ingredients on a consistent basis. I still absolutely cannot stand the fake stuff (like truffle fries) to this day.
At that point it almost makes financial sense to fly to a warmer country in the winter months.
You probably know this but NAT is not the same thing as a firewall. You can have one without the other or both. Just because your machine is addressable doesn’t mean it is accessible. You can have machines on your home LAN that have public IP addresses but are not publicly accessible. NAT exists because historically ISPs didn’t give out blocks of public IP addresses, and now that they are running out of them, they are expensive. It’s not really a security measure.
> Personally, if I was selling tickets, I'd just not sell them "fairly". Accept that tickets are a luxury item, like Ferraris.

Agreed. Tickets are a luxury item. The only fix is for the artists to do more shows. Obviously this is hard on the artists, but I wonder if they could do short term residencies in a place like Vegas? If Taylor Swift played every other night for 3-6 mos. in a fixed location, it seems like everyone could eventually see her show if they wanted. Fans would probably spend less than 2-4k each even accounting for any travel.

I also don't find the lottery method 'fair' either. Random yes, but not necessarily fair if a person can only see a show on a certain date and doesn't win the lottery.

'Heat or eat' is a real dilemma. I don't mind being cold though. I would choose to be well fed rather than living in a warm room, if given that choice.
People have recommended "scratch your own itch" but I find this is often like trying to see your own eyes.

Imagine a person, or find a person in your life. Create a "persona" around that person's experiences you observe.

So far, if that person is you, great. Now you can see yourself just like you were any other object, with properties and methods, etc.

Then map out the experiences of that persona, and create other personas and do the same for those. As you map out multiple personas, you will start to see shared experiences they have.

As you look through shared experiences you will start to find pain points, and soon you will have pain points that are the same across many personas.

Pain point mapping can be as high-level as "does not have viable future" or as low-level as "cannot remember password" so you want something in the middle like "cannot understand how to get traffic" or a mid-low "forgets to buy milk" or "cannot ..."

This is what people usually partner with a Growth Hacker for, or have a cofounder with ideas already and needs a technical solution to an idea already prepared.
Often, the maximum temperature a heat pump supplies is a lot lower than conventional heating (think 55 C versus 80+ C). This means heating up a house happens slowly and steadily, instead of the "turn a knob and your radiator is now scorching hot" paradigm.

Before installing a heat pump, your house should be insulated pretty well. Otherwise you'll never heat it up properly.

I see the problem with my father. It's is not like saying: ok I buy a heat pump instead of buying more oil. The disruption caused by having to hire someone to install a new heating combined with the feeling that the write-off period does not match their life expectancy leads to those decisions. In Germany we have a great lack of well trained heating technicians and consultants that have the time to handle this inheritantly conservative target group. It used to be different for a while, when companies were still looking for customers and not the other way around.
> If you find the smell of restaurants' truffle dishes foul, it does not mean that you do not like truffles; it could indicate that you have good taste and do not like petroleum on your plate.

Holy shit I'm vindicated. People never believed me when I said truffles smell like petrol to me, so I don't get the hype.
It sucks because there's ultimately far more efficient ways to heat a home and the only reason they're not implemented is to try to force greater consumption.
Only tangentially related, but: Some years ago, there was a flurry of reports of "gas smell" in places around the English Channel, and gas works engineers all over south-eastern England and north-western France scurried about their networks looking for leaks, finding none. Eventually, the leak was found — in the factory that produces the smelling agent!
> tl;dr the natural world is not fungible, but behaving as if it is, is a convenient abstraction for mathematics and commerce, not a property of the natural objects.

I think it's the opposite. Lots of developers seem to move to vscode. I have been using VIM for a decade and yet vscode also convinced me. The ecosystem seems to be striving. Ruby has been hard to integrate into any IDE and vscode seems to be able to somehow manage to convince the whole community to move towards a better integration. I haven't seen that before.
For B2C:

1. Is there a community you're already part of? Could be hobby / industry related

2. Do you have an easy way to reach them (e.g. through a sub-reddit)?

3. If people are constantly asking for the same type of information or numbers, is there an opportunity to make a Google Sheets document with useful tabular data? (would only take you a couple of hours)

4. If people keep referencing this spreadsheet you've created, you can throw it into MongoDB and now you've got a) something useful and b) traffic.

Is this simplistic and prescriptive? Yes, but better than create-react-app and hoping to build something people need.
Rarerely in these articles do I read anything about the profit margins that the distributors are making, and if there's oversight there.

The author even mentions that a long term stay like their father’s is rare. A lot of the criticisms are about what is, and I apologize for the expression, an edge case.
> (outside work)

That's a pretty big exclusion. It is like excluding friends you make at school when you are a kid.

Obviously, to make friends you have to meet them first and preferably spend some time with them. And during adulthood, work is usually where it happens, during childhood, it is school.

I think the reason it happens less often in adulthood is that many people already have an established group of friends, but if life changes break the group people will make friends again.
Updated the architecture for the deployment model for millions of hospital devices. It originally required service techs to take a thumb drive to a hospital with the update and manually using a series of installers and scripts to perform tedious steps that could take days to update one device… usually with errors because the steps were not followed correctly.

The update was to put all the build steps into source control, decouple all the logic, setup ci/cd to support the changes, and use a series of aws services (greengrass, kinesis, S3, lambda, cognito, systems manager, app sync, Api gateway, cloudfront, dynamo, etc) to facilitate an event driven architecture. Then threw an easy to easy to use gui (nextjs/react) on top of it for the customer support teams to use that was as fail proof as possible with a holistic view of system state and update progress.

Easily saved the company 10s of millions of dollars yearly and update times for the most critical systems went from days to hours. Failure rates went from a problem to a minimal occurrence which we had the observability in place to resolve in future scenarios by adding additional tests for any regression issues found.

Super fun project, learned a lot about AWS. Made a lot of customers happy and hospitals more safe.

If I were at Twitter and received this email, I would be providing code and commits focused on business impact. Saliency is scoped to something, and without explanation that 'something' is likely the business. The context is engineering at twitter, not programming. In other words, not silly one liners that are not immediately obvious but instead business critical code that moved the needle -- however bland.
Did it have a five gram battery?
I agree with the criticism and hate when this term gets used, for the same reason. Most people just use "processed" to mean "bad" without thinking about it.

I think the closest you can get to a "real" definition is food that has added ingredients, usually oils or preservatives, not found in traditional cooking. Usually these are added more for reasons of shelf-life or in order to cram in extra taste, or both.
> But a lot of artists want to sell tickets below market price.

Then do more shows. If the goal is to satisfy as many fans as possible across all economic spectrums, then more shows is the only answer.
Depending on how you feel about recursion, I have a fairly elegant definition of self.

"You are whatever you get in return when you ask yourself who you are."

In the most syntactically literal sense of tracing back referent objects it is true. But its true in a deeper sense as well.

Human reasoning and consciousness seems to be hacked out of a system for signalling others. There's always a presumed speaker and listener (you/me), even when its the voice in your head talking to yourself. The way we reason by self-dialog is like a strange form of coding where everything has been implemented as a server making requests, but most of the requests are bound for localhost anyway. There is no implementation, its API calls all the way down!

So to rephrase less obtusely, "you" are the source of whatever it is you're hearing which isn't attributed to me or anyone else. The easiest way to hear such things is to ask yourself, for in the process of asking yourself you get the thing you were asking for. In a most literal physical sense, "you" are the standing wave of electrical patterns that echo around in your skull, simulating a conversation as if it were echoing around in an acoustic medium.

The reaction you describe to raw but not cooked vegetables is probably something called “oral allergy syndrome”.
The article definitely conflates these ideas:

1. there are real truffles that in his opinion are much better than the artificial flavor (fair)

2. the food industry is deceptive about real vs artificial truffle flavor (fair)

3. the artificial flavor is harmful because it is derived from petroleum (silly)

The problem with the article is that 1 is interesting but just, like, your opinion man, and also like a thousand dollars. And 2 is business as usual. So if you want people not to just say “Sure, but I personally really like artificial truffle flavor” (which I did, several times, while reading) you need to convince them there’s something sinister about it that there isn’t about, say, artificial watermelon flavor. But 3 is a huge miss.
For the StrategyWithSetup example, my FP oriented brain would create another function:

withSetup :: IO c -> IO d -> (a -> IO b) -> a -> IO b
withSetup mc md f = \ a -> do
mc
b <- f a
md
return b

Which is pretty identical except with a closure over functions in place of a class of abstract methods. Classes with abstract methods are effectively higher order functions, except differences in boilerplate.

Another thing worth mentioning are language features that can't be implemented unless you effectively implement a DSL like automatic differentiation, call-cc, algebraic effects.

Hooks in React are sort of like a poor man's algebraic effects. It can't affect the control flow so it relies on immutability and hooks to unconditionally run to operate.

EDIT: after a bit of thinking, I realize that the unconditional ordering of hooks is really a way to identify call sites at runtime, which I don't think is related to algebraic effects.

I'm saying all children don't need it. Unless you can come up with a specific reason that would make it so one would.
Yes on all accounts.

Single family home asking price is dropping (seems to be around 2019 asking prices), however mortgage costs are increasing faster (due to the Fed increasing rates to combat inflation). Renting is generally more affordable than single family home asking price + mortgage interest.

You can buy all cash (if you can afford it), but it’s still not really a great deal. Investment companies buying up residential real estate on ultra low mortgage rates artificially inflated the price). Companies and individuals who bought at high prices don’t want to sell at a loss, and many have fixed low mortgage interest rates.

It’s currently a standoff between those who want to sell and those who want to buy but can’t afford it. The result is an uptick in rentals and a weak housing market (low volume of sales). Assuming mortgage interest rates continue to climb, the asking prices will continue to fall as owners try to exit the market (hence you buying 30% under asking).
