Sure, if you find smoking doesn't reduce your lifespan enough already, subjecting yourself to the additional indignity of flying Ryanair (proud Boeing 737 MAX customer!) should definitely do the trick.
That will likely quickly make it impractical. How much you can make per unit is pegged by the price differential, where the only way to make more is via volume. The probability of getting caught scales super-linearly with volume, unfortunately, and the consequences also.

Furthermore, the medium in question (passenger flight) places practical limits on volume, and raises likelihoods for getting caught. E.g. a large suitcase full of cigarettes is much riskier through an airport, than the same amount of cigarettes tucked away among a lot of other stuff in the back of a 1 ton truck going over the border.
I think she doesn’t care about it enough to hold it in contempt except insofar as it represents an asset of Paul’s that hasn’t been converted into money.
WebAssembly as a lower level abstraction is going to make web dev very interesting once the tech finally pays off, but it's been almost 10 years since it was announced and there's still no viable alternative to javascript to come out of it.

It would have been nice if a cleaner, stricter and more "designed" alternative with full access to browser features had emerged in the meantime. I'd even accept Dart if it had managed to get broad browser support.

Instead we're in a waiting game where we're all forced to use Javascript for any real work until the horizon is crossed and we can finally use a dozen of wasm-targeted languages.
>This got me thinking: is anyone working on the opposite: automated long-term trading bots?

What would be the point? HFT works because you can beat the market by being faster, I don't see how long term trading could beat the market unless you have insider information.

And if you can't beat the market, there is absolutely no point in the bot, as you can trivially just buy an index fund tracking the market. Which is also what I am doing, I would never use a bot over that, as it is just additional risk.
Everyone I work with is constantly badmouthing Teams. It's buggy and flakey and they killed Linux support which my company actually made use of. Either way, it doesn't matter since it's bundled. Literally killed any chance of competition getting a fair shake at our usage.

Teams doesn't have to be better, they're just bundled.
I agree that good definitions are important, but I don't know if this is a fair criticism (even if the sentence were wrong) -- the purpose of this page is to clarify a common point of confusion, rather than to lay out a carefully formalized framework. Besides, the practice of introducing very restrictive definitions in introductory material is universal and, I would argue, pedagogically sound.

That said, while I appreciate and admire free textbooks published online, I think the exposition would be much improved if the author had a better sense of who he was writing for (the most common writing advice...).

And I take issue with the view that the sample space is where the random phenomenon lives, as it were. In my experience, it's more common to use the random variable itself to model the (observable aspect of) the random phenomenon, and for the sample space to be either a hidden (i.e., more abstract) aspect of the phenomenon or else a purely abstract formalism introduced only for ease of mathematical computation.

It would be helpful also to see some more context, especially historical (who introduced the concept of a sample space, and for what purpose?).
> The random variable X is a function mapping the outcome to its probability

This is simply wrong. Random variables are not defined this way.
At least merging can happen by sourcing .env files in order (last to be sourced has priority)

I'm assuming you're talking about the UK all the way through that post.

In this post you've identified that the UK had given marginal pricing power of already costly energy to Ukraine (a highly corrupt country 3 borders away, poor and as it turns out in a geopolitical hotspot). The UK has not only no ability to keep the region stable. In fact it's foreign policy has been assisting the US in escalating the conflict by pouring in weapons and military aid in to the region.

That suggests indefensibly stupid energy policy. It is hard to fail worse than that without week-long blackouts. This is something that India and China have managed not to suffer from and they're managing energy for a population of >2 billion people. China is also doing better than the UK on a per capita basis just to really rub salt in to the wounded pride, using a mix of technologies that the UK couldn't hope to match.

This is a convenience feature in Outlook that is enabled only if you have a Teams licence, specifically that when you create a meeting in Outlook, it sets it as an online meeting.

You can turn this off, but last I checked can also set it to stuff like Google Meet, Zoom, WebEx, Facetime, etc if you have the relevant plug-in for Outlook.

There is no reason to make a long-term trading bot because that's what ETFs and various derivatives already are. They are algorithmic assets that you can customize according to your risk preferences, and you can just buy them.
Kudos for learning a lot in a short time. Many take longer to recapitulate these ideas, I certainly did. Alas, this is the standard buy-side quant curriculum. IDK where SOTA is these days but you have to a different edge because as you highlighted, it's so easy to reproduce the basics.

It would be more constructive if you were to provide an example definition that you consider correct and perhaps even a link to where it is defined and used as you have yet to actually say.
Who confuses a random variable with its distribution, and what does that mistake look like? I don't get it.
For every one of you, there is probably one of me: That loves that feature!

Honestly, Microsoft blurring the lines between meetings and calendar invites was great, in my opinion. I was sad the day they took away some of that functionality (made it a non-default setting). Queue the calendar "meetings" where everyone is scrambling to find a Teams meeting link but it's nowhere to be found because the creator forgot to tick it as a Teams meeting, and everyone only noticed like 1 minute before the meeting starts.
I don't think it's end users asking for it though. I haven't met anyone who likes it. Seems to me that it is more of a "good enough for the cattle" decision by the IT department.
Why blue animals are so rare
My last Windows OS is Windows XP and I've never been unemployed.

Going through the Windows stack has significant disadvantages to your career as well. Those companies are likely to pay less than their competitors, they are usually less modern and offer less remote options or modern development organizations. It's a lose, lose choice.
I like how Groovy defines truth.
Anything that is not one of these is true:

* 0

* null

* false

* empty String/collection

It may seem like too many rules, but it's very intuitive.
For example, it's common in Java to do:

if (str != null && str.length > 0)

Or:

if (str != null && !str.isEmpty())

There's even a apache.commons helper function for that:

if (!StringUtils.isNullOrEmpty(str))

While in Groovy that's just:

if (str)

It's just handy. It also reminds me of Common Lisp, where `false` is defined to be the empty list itself! It just makes sense and in Common Lisp code the same idiom can thus be used, which makes it very easy to read and write.
Structurizr - C4 models as code
Climate change will barely change anything by the years stated in these predictions.
I suppose education being a sign of prestige was a symptom of knowledge being difficult to replicate. Books used to take a lot of knowledge and skill to reproduce and were therefore rare and expensive. So the greatest benefit of attending a university was access to its library. In today's information society it's now hard for anyone to prevent the copying of what can be stored in computer files.

Because information was difficult to obtain, what was actually useful wasn't easy to identify and students relied on authority figures to tell them what was and what wasn't. Those authority figures themselves often had unsystematic and biased viewpoints which they then passed on to the next generation.

Years ago, Latin grammar was the gold standard by which all other languages were judged (perhaps as a legacy of the Roman empire). English grammar, along with that of most other world languages, is somewhat structurally different to Latin and difficult to shoehorn into the Latin model. In my opinion this has had a detrimental effect on multinational relations. Linguistics as a whole has only in the last few decades escaped from the missteps caused by classical education, with the rise of computer science and computer assisted comparative linguistic models. Google switched to other methods than those of traditional grammar for Google Translate and saw greater utility for end users as a result. Perhaps the results aren't especially idiomatic to the target language, but they have been very useful.

Maybe classical education was never that useful relative to what's available now and those who prize it have stockholm syndrome, perhaps with some rationale like "I had to go through it in my day, so students of today should too".

I think any attempt to maintain a scarcity of knowledge artificially now would be counter productive.

Okay, so you click on the zoom box to go to the "editor". But: if the hypercard player was emulated, why wasn't the editor emulated? Or even an attempt made to be reasonably similar to it? Instead it's replaced with something completely different.
Using a Starlink dish would propably have been cheaper?

Upload speeds are not as good as download but 2 terabytes should be uploaded in 2 weeks and 4 days with Starlink 10Mbps.

If you want to be very cheap you could do this in your 30 day trial period and return the dish afterwards but I'm assuming you have similiar upload needs often so keeping the dish is propably better.

Because companies were already paying for it. Where I work now moved to Teams and they openly said it's not as good as Zoom, but we need to move because we're already paying for Office and so it doesn't make financial sense to pay for an additional duplicate service.
1ox seems like a year's supply for an average person.

A really heavy smoker can consume up to several grams a day. Let's say 5 grams, that'd be 150g per month (5oz per month).

Agree that it's hard to argue for 200 plants being personal use; 20 would be more realistic. For 200 plants, it's a big operation! Also, you can grow them in like 3-month cycles too.
> flipdisc displays are sort of an obscure technology

"niche technology" is probably the better term - that niche being readability in sunlight. A few years ago, flipdisc displays used to be very common in buses, trains etc. Then LEDs got better and the niche vanished...
> You measure the wall with a ruler and get 7 feet, then you measure the couch and get 7 feet. Can you fit the couch against that wall?

Normally, yes: the couches generally have somewhat squishy... stuffing? filling?.. which hang off the wooden frame, so you generally can squeeze a couch from the sides a bit to fit it into slightly narrower space.

> say 1/10th of a foot.

This is unholy. Either say "an inch" for this hypothetical scenario, or use some decimal-based measurement system.

It is, the right of security in your person is the right to body autonomy.

Without the latter, you do not have the former.

Sadly, the only amendment to the constitution that reactionaries recognize to mean anything is the second. (And even with that one, they drop half the words to come to the conclusion they want.)
I guess we could all try to write things in WebAssembly hosted forth... however that sounds like a giant nightmare once I consider any project of scale and how it would be more like trying to mod a modern JIT program at runtime with reflection.

I think the parent post wanted a more easily composed, modular sources of a whole, but better than JavaScript / ECMAScript. Intended to also have something similar to modern dev consoles attached with ease.
A random variable must assign a value to the different outcomes like heads, tails or colors. That value is the random variable value.

For a random variable we can calculate something called the expected value. We can't do that if the value of the variable is in the domain { red, green, blue }.

If Microsoft unbundles Teams, they can still make it available for free and nothing will have been resolved.

I do agree with the EU that Teams should be unbundled, but unless you have a cheaper and/or better alternative I don't see it being all that effective. Teams also integrate into Active Directory and the whole Microsoft ecosystem in a way most other systems just doesn't do (not that they can't).
I didn’t vote for it, and think Brexit was bad, but also agree that the EU is overly bureaucratic, un-democratic, and doesn’t see countries as truly autonomous (eg tries to be redistribute wealth between the countries). The best scenario now is probably somewhere in the middle.

The EU today is significantly different to the original idea, but I can see the UK entering into the single market and military partnerships etc (contrary to popular opinion, there are lots of free trade agreements worldwide that don’t have full regulatory alignment!).

8 Week program designed for software engineer to launch first product
In last 8 months I built and launched two products writeminimal.com, sudofocus.com with paying customers, and now building the third product draftalpha.com

I found, it is really challenging to build alone, and far more rewarding, and practical to build alongside with the community. This is the the primary reason I am launching sudolauch.com

It is an eight week program specifically designed for the software engineers who wants to build and launch their first product along side with a curated community of like minded developers (limited to 10 people).

I will also be building and launching an entire product from the scratch to demonstrate the process and will be available as mentor to unblock.

All sessions will happen on the weekend and online.
From all the tests I've made recently, BMW, Mercedes, BYD and Renault all do better than Tesla. Push the left turn signal, the car switches lane, accelerates and overtakes by itself. In the EU at least Teslas can't seem to get this right.

Also Teslas are among the lasts (with X-Peng) in their price range lacking a capacitive steering wheel (doesn't require moving the wheel, a light touch from time to time is enough to keep cruise control on).

And none of them suffers from the dangerous "phantom braking" defect, which occurs almost certainly at least once for any one-hour long trip.
The gatekeeper criteria are open. Could you precise mention which criteria is bad instead of making strong assumptions?

I don't see why Spotify is a gate keeper. You have e.g. Deezer or Apple Music and you can switch very easily.

As a fun aside, I find it quite fascinating when you see a particular signal go dead overnight.

I recall one particular overnight reversion strategy in my local market which in the 90s and early 2000s had like a 45 degree straight line equity curve and then overnight in 2011 it just went flat. Someone clearly turned on a model that day and started trading it. It's a small market here so I know who it was but I still find it fascinating how clearly it showed up in the data.

There might be a negative incentive in play: you may be compressing packages, but having your dependencies available at the tip of *pm install bloats overall size and complexity beyond what lack of bundling would give you.
If you're the age I think you are (mid-30s), then during your grandfather's time most women didn't work and many racial minorities were barred from many jobs and forms of housing. If you cut the labor supply in half or more, then wages naturally go up because demand doesn't change that much per capita.

That said I completely agree with you about everything else. I think the US needs to firm up its social safety net (hopefully through UBI, though I'm not hopeful) ASAP. I don't think AI will take over the world or even remove all jobs, but it will remove enough in our lifetime that we'll have a crisis of low-skilled employees out of work who just won't be able to transition into a job that pays well enough to pay four healthcare, housing, and transportation. Housing itself is a really hard problem too for various other complicated reasons.

A random unit vector is a numerical quantity. It is not like colors of beads in a jar that have no value until we assign one, which we do arbitrarily.

For a random variable consisting of a unit vector, it may be possible to construct an Expected Value: take all the vectors that can occur, multiply them by their probability and add together. (Or if the vectors are not quantized, use integration over their space).

We can't do that for bead colors that have not been mapped to values.

That looks like a good litmus test: if we can calculate a meaningful Expected Value, it is almost certain a random variable. Otherwise not.
