Packet loss is a real performance killer. Even a small percentage will result in enough TCP retransmissions to be noticeable. I had a cable DOCSIS connection for a while that would average 0.9% packet loss for long periods of time, with jumps to the 2 or 3% range. I remember there were days where I'd get like only a couple megabits due to extreme loss.

It took a year to get it resolved, and even then I'm not sure if it was deliberate or accidentally fixed. You wind up with all sorts of excuses. "It must be your splitter." "We should recap the end of the cable." "It must be your router." They refuse to do basic diagnostics, like checking your neighbors connections for packet loss (which can be done remotely.)
Hopefully Coinbase learns from this to add a "Sorry we're experiencing issues" screen rather than showing the wrong data.
It sounds like the diagnosis marked a point of positive transformation. Before the diagnosis, your daughter attributed her math challenges to global stupidity and laziness. After the diagnosis, she attributed it to a specific difficulty with math. That reframing does sound healthy and helpful. It also sounds like the diagnosis helped you accept the situation and adapt your teaching modality.

Certainly, funding for treatment and acceptance of accommodation can make a life-changing difference. That in part motivates many caring and concerned practitioners to widen diagnostic criteria, so that more people can access benefits. I can see how I came across as trivializing those benefits. Quite the contrary, though, I meant to express that yes, diagnostic labels can bring positive results, and we need to weigh those against the negative results, especially when other options exist.

Somebody found it a fantastic comment. Someone else did not find it fantastic.

I find a comment stating it _is_ good/bad/fantastic as if that is the ground truth, a lot less convincing, it lacks the nuance of a point-of-view.

The quite firm reply seems to stem from the word "prayer". Some people pray, others not. What's wrong with that?
The problem with this theory is that studies that have looked across countries with different levels of social/economic support find it does very little.

When countries get richer, people start having fewer kids, and giving parents money does not offset this (even if that's what people say they want).
My partner (academic) has worked for NGOs (making scientifically backed reports on certain subjects) that function as lobbyists within the EU parliament trying to push for greener policies.

Not all lobbying is bad. And as has been mentioned here already, banning them will just make their influence and actions more hidden.

Watching this was awesome! I'd love to watch similar competitions where students (undergrad/grad) attempt to solve hard problems under insane time pressure, e.g. for Physics some more straightforward ones from Landau's Theoretical Minimum: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/problems-from-lev-land.... Seeing the thought process, the red herring paths taken, etc. would be a good learning experience (and a lot of fun).

Rather than blackboards they should have had electronic boards so we can see better their scribbles.
> Would the incumbents have deployed without Google Fiber's credible competitive announcements?

Of COURSE they wouldn't!

If google fiber hadn't happened, all providers would have continued sitting on their collective asses, soaking as much money as possible, doing the least possible legally permissible work, nickle-and-diming customers as much as possible.
Because bi- is two, tri- is three. Ti- is meaningless, and not good enough of a joke to make up for it.
That's a huge logical fallacy.

It's like telling Americans, "Bill Gates has less operations than poor people, and countries with the best healthcare in the world, their people also have less operations, so no, medical operations in America are not too expensive". You've wildly mixed up cause and effect, and are comparing non-like things.

The people in America who want to have children are routinely priced out of having children, "kids are too expensive" is absolutely true. The existence of rich people in America who do not want children despite their wealth, in no way disproves this.
Isn't it better just to repost with a query parameter like ?foobar ?
However they decided to measure that and the actual reality of the situation may not even correlate.

Basically you can barely trust publicly scrutinized science to not mess up data gathering. I definitely don't trust companies that sell automated tools for user satisfaction to actually have good metrics for it.

Advanced Fraud Protection on the Apple Card for the CC number you type into websites changes the CVC ("three digit security code") randomly at regular intervals (I think it is at least weekly?). Also that CC number is "virtual" in that it is different than the CC number Apple Pay uses in NFC transactions and if you have the physical card different from the CC number in the magnetic stripe and different from the CC number in the EMV chip for EMV transactions. (You can't even get a CVC for any of those other numbers, so can't type them into random websites.) The entire virtual, typable CC number can also be rotated to a new CC number manually with mostly just a "button press".

Some other high end cards have also been learning from Apple Card here and moving to virtual numbers.

So far, I've seen no real downside to Apple's approach to virtual numbers and the Advanced Fraud Protection CVC rotation (which just starts to feel like a 2FA TOTP for card purchases online the way you check for the latest value after Face ID check from the app every time), and it was definitely one of the factors why I wound up signing up for Apple Card in the first place. Hopefully more of the low end cards and mainstream banks pick up the added protections, too.

Alignment of incentives. Airlines have fewer, smaller conflicts of alignment. Boeing is in a hurry to cash in on huge demand for single-aisle passenger planes before A320/1 or a stretch A220 fill that demand. It gets worse: The longer expansion of 737MAX production is delayed, the less demand. It doesn't just expire, it declines over time. Every sale delayed is also maintenance income delayed.

On top of that, Spirit Aerosystems was spun off so Boeing could demand higher production and lower prices, and fragment their assembly line workforce.

In this environment, when management has been hostile to their workers' unions, how are workers going to feel safe raising a red flag over "minor" production issues? You can't train for correct behavior when the incentives are so far out of alignment.
>Anytime I see/hear someone rambling in email/on meeting, I know they are not confident in what they are saying.

Well then you are dismissing people unfairly. You won't hear a peep out of me if I don't know the answer. On the other hand, if I have mountains of data that proves my point, or if the problem is nuanced, you'll hear all of it.

I'm working on getting better at distilling that data into short, actionable points for people like VPs (because I'm now at the level where these people read what I write).

But if you were to assume that I'm not confident, based on my inability to boil it down, you'd be drawing the wrong conclusion. You should listen to me because I'm nearly always right, and when I'm wrong, I'm usually the first to identify that fact and provide a solution.

Also I am autistic, which certainly impacts my communication.
I'm tired of this particular brand of Think Piece that seems to be en vogue right now, which attempts to attribute all manner of ills to external forces.
I doubt most people fail at personal transformation because movie montages and "marketers" led them to believe it would be easy, I think most people fail because it is really really hard to achieve. Getting permission to blame it on Rocky et al is more appealing than blaming yourself, but I would bet that in an alternate universe where training montages didn't exist very little would be different..

No, by design within a single program you only ever have a single version of a given.

Because Dart is used primarily for client-side applications (and initially only web applications), we care a lot about code size. NPM's approach of silently allowing multiple versions of the same package adds a lot of bloat, which is fine for a server language but not great for a client one.

Also, nominal static typing makes having multiple versions of the same package potentially very unpleasant for users. Say you have an application that depends on packages "a" and "b". "a" and "b" both depend on a package "foo" and each gets their own version of "foo". The "foo" package (both versions) define a type Foo. It's entirely possible for an instance of Foo from "a"'s version of "foo" can flow through the program over to "b" and then get passed to "b"'s version of "foo".

The end result will be compile time and/or runtime errors like "Expected a value of type Foo but got a value of type Foo." This is not a great user experience. NPM avoids this problem by being dynamically typed. Go mitigates it by being structurally typed for interfaces.

Obviously, better error messaging can help, but it's just generally confusing to have multiple versions of what a user thinks of as "one" package when really there are multiple floating around in the same program.

For the most part, selecting a single version of any shared dependency works pretty well. It's definitely not perfect. It can make it harder for heavily used packages to make breaking changes. But the overall trade-offs seem to work fairly well.
In the comments, UTF-8 is the encoding, so it makes sense to display it (although you'll notice that some characters are filtered out, emoji most of all).

In a domain name, punycode is the encoding. The actual domain name, the one you'd need to run DNS and such, is what you see. Also, rendering it into unicode is a vector for attacks. So it's the wrong choice here, where no one wants to deal with the aggravation of knowing that confusables can be slipped into domain names at any time.

The culture exacerbates the issues, but they're the same issues that's affecting families everywhere. If I'm making minimum wage, or close to it, and I don't have stability in my job, then I'm not having kids. The only less wealthy people left having kids are those that don't use birth control and don't condone abortion. I had decided that the time was right to have a child after I'd been employed for 6 years in a decent paying job and I wasn't concerned about being laid off. Employers now are preferring younger candidates, those fresh out of college, ones who don't have kids that they have to pick up / drop off from school. They want you connected 100% of the time, checking your email/chat on your time off. That leaves people with offspring feeling like they don't belong. Until that changes, there's going to be less births.
The interesting thing about these AI chatbots is that they liberally destroy many jobs and create far fewer.

They are legally Required to cover it. An council checks every new drug if it helps and if the price is appropiate. That is done for each drug indipendent of the regulation of the drug. the insurance has very few things to deny an claim(in most cases they deny them because an doctor abbreviated his/her title, but due an new method to transport the receipts its very probably that the number will drop) and none if the doctor deems it absolutly nessesary.

+1 to this, I had one job where lunch was provided and it very much brought people together, particularly across team boundaries / job levels, and often "tricked" you into having pseudo meetings over lunch.

I find that still happens organically in smaller companies without, but in larger companies things trend towards more clique like behaviour without it (caveat small sample size)
This is the bigger aspect to me. "All for nothing" is not the right description for failure to recover. Hunting is actually an important part of maintaining a proper ecosystem. It still serves as a management tool even if the animal dies in needless pain.

Counterintuitively, hunting can often be an ethically right decision to make (depending on animal). This is because we humans have displaced natural predators and these prey will tend to over populate, over consume their food sources, and then starve. Remember that hunting is limited to seasons and that these seasons are decided per species and the population of that species. There are a lot of regulations around this and it isn't simply kill anything you want.

Similarly there are even moral big game hunting, where they specifically target aggressive and harmful animals, and use the money to fund the nature preserve.

In this manner, the ethical obligation is then to do the least harm and make the most out of it. If we need to cull some populations, it should be done as humanely as possible. Applying the same ethical ideals (distinct from practice) that we apply for livestock.

Some articles if anyone wants to read more. This is a controversial topic still but I'm providing this information because there is legitimacy to this side of the argument that many may not be aware of. I'd encourage discussion, but not bashing.

Unfortunately, like most things, there's a lot of complexity and nuance to all these things. The claim is not that there is no abuse, but that there is a difference between abusing a practice and a practice being useful.

And this isn't a case of "bugs or mistakes", it's a case of being underprepared.

How is this not either a bug in their software/systems or some mistake? Does being "prepared" mean 100% availability/uptime? Even very mission critical systems like the Sabre system that powers many of the world's airlines can't maintain 100% uptime indefinitely.

I think regulators should be much more concerned with integrity than uptime. Losing temporary access to my account balance is bad, but not nearly as bad as the bank showing an incorrect balance.

Hell yes. TST got me by, it was okay.. but kinda of a mess? This is a nice alternative at first test and glance. I also like that unloaded tabs are sorta ghosted out.

Many people at RenFaires and music festivals use Stripe. This is going to wipe them out as customers. Also fully remote businesses. It's clear to me Stripe wants brick and mortar businesses, or online businesses that have an office. Which I find sad, because they're abandoning a bunch of customers depending on them. Though it is an opportunity for some startup to cater to those customers.
This is the message I see in my account:

> Invalid address. Your business address must be a valid physical address from which you conduct business and cannot be a P.O. Box. This address is not shared publicly and can be your personal address. You may use a P.O. Box as your customer support address.

So in other words, a personal home address should work.

Although its odd your error message is seemingly saying a personal address doesn't work, unless "private mailbox" means a privately rented commercial box, like UPS

// Requiring up to 2^n terms for what was an n-dimensional space//

Sometimes, the economy is illusory, e.g. normal vectors transform differently than position vectors do. Sure, you can, if you want, use the same data structure to represent both of them, but you'll still have to have some way of keeping track what kind of vector it is holding, as well as sprinkle special cases throughout your code to handle each one differently.

GA, takes the bull by the horns by having vectors use one basis (i,j,k) for vectors, and another basis (j*k, k*i, i*j) for the other.

// never understood the utility of combining them into one equation //

This is a good example of how having a higher-dimensional space actually gives you better economy of storage than a lower dimensional space does: one equation is better than two, or four :-)

And electric fields are different from magnetic fields in quite the same way as vectors are different from bivectors. You can either "special case" them by using a different equation for Electric and Magnetic fields, or you can treat them uniformly with one.
