This is a great comment, I’ve always thought that the huge blind spot of true believers is that if something looks good on paper, it does not automatically mean it will transfer into the real world.

Crypto currency would work terrific in a society with fixed rules, unchanging laws & regulations, and constant rule followers. In other words, this would be amazing in a society filled with robots. Humans are not that. Humans are error-prone, emotional, conscious, questioning, moral, and very special creatures.

No matter how strong your passwords are, how “offline” your crypto wallets be, or how hacker proof your crypto holdings are - this doesn’t matter! All someone has to do is break into your house, hold a gun to your head and say “transfer your entire bitcoin holdings right now or we kill you”. Just like that you lose your entire life savings with absolutely no recourse or chance to reverse anything. We are immediately faced with an undeniable human issue. A human is breaking the rules of society. A human is fraudulently taking something that is not theirs. A human is using the threat of physical violence in the real world. Not only is Crypto/blockchain technology not equipped to handle this situation, not being able to do anything about this situation is a fundamental feature of the ecosystem.
You're certainly right, I just copy/pasted stuff from the article and changed identifiers, probably adding errors in the process, but the point was never to give accurate examples, just point that even reading Rust code requires significantly more learning than other languages. YMMV of course.

Thanks for correcting me. Still not a joy to read though.
At the risk of repeating myself in every thread about urbanism, in asian megacities like Tokyo nature is a train ride away, at any time, any day. In Europe we've just been bad about planning and building infrastructure.
Such takings of property under eminent domain had happened before; it was not a new idea in 2005.

This case was the result of a suit against such takings. The suit failed, and the takings continued.

Perhaps you’re unaware but not every systematic review is or can be a meta-analysis. Meta-analyses can and are also included in systematic reviews released by ASCO.

The criteria for a rapid update is listed in the comment you replied to, I have no misunderstanding of why they publish them but you are trying to misrepresent this as deviating from EBM.

Your words were: “Unfortunately the dogma around systematic reviews and EBM has exceeded its usefulness by quite some margin.”

I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make but seeing as you’re attempting to argue ASCO’s own position and methodology with anecdotes and conjecture based on one specific area of breast cancer treatment and extrapolating to the entire field of oncology I’m not sure there’s a point in engaging further.

You can refer to the full ASCO statement I linked which discusses meta-analyses for their arguments.

Cheers.

I am a little surprised how much anti-Psychology sentiment there is on HN. I know it is typically viewed as a 'liberal' field, and perhaps has a harder time quantifying measurements.

It is more difficult to measure a human trait, than to measure a temperature.

I'm wondering what the options are? We can't just dismiss Psychology, cancel an entire field because it has difficulties. Why can't we study humans, what study of humans would take the place of Psychology?

I'd say all those pointing to the successes of 'hard' sciences, have it easier.

Isn't iterative improvement what all science is about?
Oh ? Thanks, fine... so that applies to zig has well...
Because they've never been deployed at the scale we're talking about. They're unproven. Hydrogen is inefficient to make and hard to store safely; current battery tech isn't efficient enough and has resource limitations; pumped hydro requires certain relatively rare combinations of geographic properties. Are those solvable problems? Probably, hopefully, some day. Meanwhile, nuclear works right now and is well understood.
So this is a pet peeve of mine. I can google that as easily as you can. But:

1. You made the claim. It's appropriate that you do the work to back it up.

2. A post is read more times than it is written. If you (the author) do the work, the work gets done once. If we, the readers, do the work, it's done multiple times.

So both efficiency and "burden of proof" say that you should do that search. In fact, you should have done it about 10 or 20 posts earlier.

Do current smart phones support this?
I can't imagine Apple being too keen on allowing this sort of thing. No idea about Android
It is standardized and Safari isn’t the first. Edge already supports this on Windows, Chrome does everywhere, and they’re all using the same “manifest.json” declaration whenever display is set to “standalone”.

These all require a service worker, so that’s the destination of your pack and, conveniently, a cache for downloaded assets.
When I used Guix, I needed nonfree for Firefox and the upstream Linux kernel. I also prefer to only use free software, and also like them not including proprietary software.

Needing a channel was a huge inconvenience as you would often pull your channels and stuff would break, as guix was updated but non-guix wasn't. Managing channel manifests was a pain. Firefox would often be months out of date as well.

Moved to NixOS, didn't enable allowUnfree, and had an actually up to date and simple to maintain system. Flakes solves the channels problems too. I had put a lot of effort into making Guix work, but it just had too many usabiltity issues, and the policy on firefox was a major one.

The "proposal" is simply pointing out that those claims are simply false. Hydrogen storage is a solved problem. BEV fanatics are just lying about it. In reality, the whole thing is a disruptive technology to BEVs since it fundamentally solves the weaknesses of BEVs. It is entirely a matter of when it displaces BEVs, not if. This will become more obvious when hydrogen cars become no more expensive than ICE cars.

Perhaps in the US but London has increasingly fantastic dedicated cycle infrastructure. Removing the need for bike to ever directly interact with cars on many journeys.

Also urban fatalities of people on bikes is driven almost entirely by people driving cars. In what world do we look at the problem of cars killing people on bikes and go “well obviously the bikes are the problem”. All the stats in this area clearly indicate that drivers are far more often at fault in these collisions than those on bikes. Same again goes for pedestrians, cars kill pedestrians regardless of how careful pedestrians are.
This is easily solved by

1) using registered domains as namespace (if one exists)

I feel like we're over-optimizing in some way. Like we're set down this odd path that only leads to more "products" and more "safety" and more of our value as humans being captured by companies and people "other" than ourselves or families. To this example, we're talking about saving money by not having a car and then the consequences of having a young child, and the dangers thereof, etc. Before we started down this path, we had none of those things, and children were perfectly "safe" staying at home and being home-schooled by individuals in the house. What's next, weighing the cost of a private tutor coming to your house because school is too expensive, transportation to school is too expensive, and the whole thing is too dangerous for them? /rant

> I don’t think I’ve ever seen it followed by a disclaimer that this only applies to systems with unlimited memory.

So, a Turing machine?

Why Rust doesn't prevent memory leaks - answer is simple. It's too much pain for modicum of gain.

People crow about lifetime being hard, now imagine how much people would complain if you add another orthogonal system to track memory allocation.
I've been in the field for seven years, primarily working for startups, and though I'm primarily FE I've dabbled in some backend stuff, and I've deployed many apps. I couldn't tell you off the top of my head what the difference between CNAME or A record is. All I know is when it comes time for deployment, I go to Google cloud DNS or AWS's equivalent and follow the instructions on how to deploy. If things don't work, I Google it.

I understand your higher level point (these boot camp guys don't understand even the basics) but where do you draw the line between basics and not basics? Many people couldn't employé Dijkstra's algorithm, or A*, or an efficient sorting algorithm. Many people couldn't tell you how memory works outside of "don't try to load 1million things from a database."

But if they're hired as a FE/BE engineer, and can perform the tasks provided to them 99% of the time (and googling / enriching themselves that 1%) what's the concern here?
> It would really be a better approach to work on getting Rust to adopt the features of Zig you're looking for.

I was just pondering the other day about how nice it would be to take to get the same level of quality C/C++ integration that Zig has, but in Rust. My new job has acres and acres of C++ which isn't going to go away. Linking and wrapping against C++ is one thing; build system integration is another. Zig has some serious advantages there.

That and I really want allocator_api and simd to get into stable.
The Netherlands really has the traffic systems figured out in general, not just in terms of bikes. Intersections have more throughput because they actually react to traffic, light timing is based on proper science and not rule of thumb, etc.

I guess concerns must be addressed perfectly. Otherwise solution won't stand criticism. For example ransom, if paying ransom is legal, then it's legal, if it's illegal, then it should be reasonably stoppable with police resources as an easy meatspace crime.

> isn't random sampling from the population of interest a method that will generate a sample that is representative with high probability?

That depends on the sample size. The comment I replied to claimed that "you could estimate population statistics of millions (or even infinite) with a sample of just 30 or so".

Which is certainly not true if the sample is drawn randomly, except under very specific circumstances (such as population variance being extremely small). You don't need a billionaire in order for income distribution samples to be wildly misleading. It's enough for the variance to be high, so that very small samples are almost guaranteed to have a mean that differs substantially from that of the whole population.
If that’s true how is the Linux kernel project so successful with collaborators from all over the world not even working under the same roof?

I have a hybrid schedule.

I lose 2 hours/day commuting + 1/2 hour de-stress from driving through shit traffic. I get far more work done on my WFH days than I do my in-office days. I'm an IC and don't need to do much mentoring, and when i do it's always easier to do it remotely with screen sharing than to try and sit two chairs into the same office. The only reason I come into the office is to have lunch with my co-workers. I do NOT see them the entire rest of the day.
It depends on your use case.

For example, .NET core is nonexistent in Guix and nobody in the community seems to have any use for it. Also, there's an upstream bug report in dotnet core stating that it doesn't have functioning bootstrapping (AT ALL), and Microsoft doesn't care.

Java bootstrapping in Guix actually works pretty well, but only up to (and somewhat excluding) Maven. Everything higher than that is extremely difficult to build without cheating.

So I'd say if you use C, C++, Rust, Scheme, Haskell, R, Python, Ruby, Perl or stuff like that, Guix is awesome.

For Java with Ant, it's ok (something like 20 different Java VM and JDK packages are in guix, so you can do everything Java can do).

For Java EE, it's doable but convoluted (just install binary IntelliJ community edition from IntelliJ's website, for example). I'm using that myself, on Guix, and it's ok.

For .NET, ha ha, better be prepared to use mono from Xamarin. Realistically, .NET is not working. .NET IDEs? Nope.

>After all, the IDEs were not designed to work in Guix environment

It depends on how much they need to be designed for that. It works very well for IntelliJ, and I don't think that IntelliJ can tell at all that it's inside a guix profile.

What is true is that IDEs could make more use of the EXTRA power that guix gives (like guix build --with-source and guix build --with-patches in order to automatically patch dependencies for quick tests), and it's totally annoying that they don't.

Note that Docker is also available in Guix, both the actual daemon (not that guix uses it...) and as a guix build output target.
Because the assumption is that they work less because they are remote, clearly Covid has shattered that elusion by now.
> machine must be at least good as the human would be in every situation or we're better off leaving humans in control with machines augmenting their abilities.

That isn't quite right. There can be situations where the human is better, so long as in the majority of situations the machine is better. This is why I said it is a statistical question. I'm not demanding perfection, I'm asking for better than humans overall. Of course if the machine knows it is in a situation where it isn't as good it is fine to make the human drive.
Because it's a 50-year old convention, and there doesn't seem to be a compelling reason for ignoring it. The language then uses `is` for equality, including numbers.

> I prefer coworking for the “body doubling” effect. Social pressure keeps my anti-productive tendencies in check.

And this here is exactly why mandates are ridiculous. Just because YOU are unable to work remotely or YOUR leader is unable to lead you effectively when you're remote doesn't mean that your coworkers or their leaders are ineffective when remote.
Crypto, Aliens, Science, and Equality are the topics that you really should’t look at discussions for here unless you know what you are getting yourself into, or just want to watch the burning dumpster fire. At least with Crypto it is relatively easy to spot the weird grudges or patently self-interested reasons for continuing to argue for a failed system.

I’m sure when this use case fails there will be another new use case that can be used as the Single Thing that crypto was made and defined for, you always need to find more sources of Greater Fools..
