You don't have to consolidate, just move people: move the occupants of room n to room 2n and now you have infinitely many empty rooms (all the odd-numbered ones).
No, those guests now stay in room n+2.

Intro to Genetic Algorithms in Javascript Part 2
Put another way, you can't pick numbers from an infinite sample space because you can't create an infinite sample space.

That's not true; there's nothing wrong with infinite sample spaces. It's just that there's just no such thing as a uniform distribution over an infinite space.

For example, suppose you flip a fair coin repeatedly until the first time it comes up Heads. The number of flips you end up making could be any positive integer, so this procedure samples from an infinite space. But not all integers are equally likely. (in fact, each integer is half as likely as the one before, following a geometric distribution).
Stop by General Assembly; (http://generalassemb.ly/) you can most likely get a tour of the place or sign up for one of the classes they have that day. Just let them know beforehand that you'd like to check out the space. Great vibe & atmosphere. Lots of other startups & incubators/workspaces in the area (Flatiron) as well.
nonblocking i/o is an important feature if you want to make something responsive that will handle a lot of connections. node.js brings that to the foreground, and makes it a topic that is digestible for a lot of programmers that have never seen it before. The end result is that by using node.js, a developer is able to experience one element of concurrency that they may not have had exposure to using Ruby/Python/PHP. Yes, it is possible to do nonblocking i/o in Ruby/Python/PHP, but it isn't as natural of an experience.

It's a usability thing. If you make something easier to use, more people use it; as a result, node.js has introduced the topic of nonblocking i/o in a way that other technologies have been unable to do. It also allows you to share code between the client and the server, which may or may not matter, depending on your project. And for a lot of developers, node.js means using a language you already know.

The guys at Kitchen Table Coders do a workshop where they make a physical game paddle with an arduino, and then hook it up to a node.js server, so that two people can play pong with physical controllers in their browser. They're able to teach that workshop in a day. I think that speaks volumes for types of things that you can do with node.js, and its mass appeal.

But, like I said in the article, I find that node.js becomes disorganized quickly, and I just plain don't enjoy debugging JavaScript. On top of that, if you need to do CPU-bound work, node.js basically forces you to create an isolated process and perform i/o with it, but now you have an OS process for each of these instances, whereas in Go, creating a goroutine and communicating with it over channels is much more lightweight. Node.js has its merits, and I don't mean to say "nobody use node.js ever!", I just don't like using it.
I am afraid that debugging your c++ code on Android will be a lot of pain.

... which would consolidate the occupants of rooms n and 2n (and there are people in room 2n to begin with, if all of the rooms are indeed currently occupied).

edit: I see that the folks in 2n would now be in 4n, and so on down the chain. You'd always have some guests that are in the process of being evicted (i.e. between rooms); then again, that's negligible because we're not talking about real life (™). Clever!
I don't get it. Can't I just as easily say that n+2 is also occupied? After all, they're all occupied by definition, aren't they?

For example. All blocks are either red or blue. You have an infinite number of blocks that are all red. Do you have any blue blocks? No. Where is the mistake in my logic?
Many folks in web analytics consulting have similar skills. All about finding a story in the thicket of data, and then constructing a narrative to communicate to your client.

ah, I was working on a game. It was a space shooter. I wanted it to be viewable in the browser so that I could just send a link to my friends and they wouldn't have to download it. I wound up writing it in AS3.
But how do you get a situation where there is one more room than occupants, if both are infinite and matched up?
I worked on this project this summer at Google, and I've been cracking up at the news coverage and HN/Reddit comment threads for a couple of days now. Here's why:

- People love to spout off about why Google does this or that. I guarantee you that the goal of this project is NOT to help "lazy developers" avoid learning Objective-C. Effective use of J2ObjC requires you to use Objective-C and Xcode.

- Many developers seem to think that application architectures from their particular domains of expertise are universal or most important. There are many apps for which "core business logic", and not UI code, dominates.

- Small-team/single-platform/large-team/multi-platform developers seem to have trouble imagining what it's like to be on the other side.

- Reading non-technical articles about a technical project that you've worked on is bizarre.
Well, the real problem is that there is no uniform distribution on the integers.
I can see how that works if you have an infinite number of rooms and an infinite number of guests, because you still have an unoccupied room to move them up into. But how does that work when you've stated that all rooms are occupied?

I'm really struggling to square up my understanding of how the former problem works with my intuition that if every room is in an occupied state, you can't magic up some in an unoccupied state.
Of course there is a line to be drawn, but I think that dietary supplements certainly should be tested in clinical trials. Otherwise, there is no way to know if they work or not. This is typically how drugs/supplements are evaluated.
Yes, but I suspect it's backwards from what you're implying

High-rises separated by green space was the original vision of high-rise designers. But what developers and financiers heard was "more salable square footage in less footprint" and we ended up with what we have now.

I personally don't enjoy living in high-rises. If I had to design city, it'd be more like San Francisco: buildings 5-6 stories high, tops. Lots of walkspace, lots of trees, definitely a lot more greenways as you describe.

But I don't see the point of having all that greenspace if the majority of people will be 20+ stories away from it.
No one is arguing the value of public transportation in our cities, just that it could probably be built for less. If anything, this article could be a left-wing talking point - using private companies instead of public workers costs more.

If you move every guest from n to 2n, all of the odd rooms will open up, and you have room for a countably infinite number of new guests.

Yes. The statement as given doesn't work out. If you say "an infinite number of guests and an infinite number of rooms" it works. But when every room is endowed with the property of being occupied there is no room for more guests.

"Lowest bid wins, realistic and competent bids lose."

But what would the best practice be to determine that the realistic and competent bids are objectively evaluated? How do you solve that problem in the real world (and not even talking about any other conflicts or issues)? Employ consultants or? My anecdote would relate to government bidding for some mfg. projects. It was very clear that the people evaluating the bids (at least in the small area I was involved with) took into account the reputation of the bidder in awarding the contracts.

I'm self-submitting my article because I think some of you could be interested. I hope it does not bother anybody :) I'd love to know your opinions!
The idea of different infinities is very important to programmers. In particular, they are the underlying reasons for undecidable problems.

You can write any valid computer program as a string of finite length from a finite alphabet. This means the set of programs is countable. (This should not be surprising--everything is ones and zeroes, after all, so you always end up mapping your program to a really large natural number to use it.)

EDIT: To clarify a bit--the set of computer programs is infinite and countable. I sometimes use "countable" to mean "countably infinite" which is a very bad habit. My only justification is that the fact that a finite set is countable is trivial and therefore boring.

The number of functions between two countably infinite sets is not countable. This is also fairly easy to see: the set X → Y can be easily mapped to a subset of P(X × Y) where P deontes a powerset. All this says is that you can describe any function from X to Y as a set of ordered pairs (X, Y). For two countable sets X and Y, X × Y is also countable; if either X or Y is infinite, X × Y is also infinite. This means that P(X × Y) is not countable, so X → Y is not countable either.

EDIT: My justification for why X → Y is uncountably infinite if either X or Y is countably infinite (and both are countable, of course) is not correct. Just mapping something to a subset of P(X × Y) doesn't actually tell us anything. However, the actual fact is correct even if I don't show it, so I'm going to figure out (or, honestly, probably look up) why this is the case and amend my post further :P.

So the number of programs we can write is countable; the number of functions we can write over interesting domains (like natural numbers or integers) is not countable. There has to be an infinite number of functions we cannot write programs for!

So we have managed to show, in a fairly simple way, that there have to exist undecidable problems. The real trick is that we can see this without having to construct a problem like that or even reason much about programs in general; all we have to know is that programs are strings and have finite lengths.

The other neat bit is that this reasoning is very easy to adapt to proofs rather than programs. After all, mathematical proofs are also finite-length strings! And, for example, propositions about the natural numbers are essentially functions ℕ → {true, false}. So you can't prove all of them.

So now we also see a deep relationship between proofs and programs, without actually doing much thinking about proofs or programs.

We can also see that I'm no mathematician and either made some blatant errors or was not very rigorous throughout :P.

No official statement yet
The ability to pick a truly random integer from a uniform distribution is just a practical one. Consider: How many digits does a "typical" integer have? The answer is that it is unbounded. For any value you choose, it is easy to show that there are far more integers with more digits than with less. So indeed, even writing down your choice of a random integer would take a long time.

But I don't think the two envelope paradox has anything to do with that practical impossibility. It is about the rules of symbol manipulation and modeling.
That's the sort of thing that happens when semantics meets mathematics; Swizec screwed up his statement of the problem. Swizec and the people agreeing that the answer is yes are confusing the problem's literal statement with the common statement of similar problems.
no, n+3 is also full. See? Why do you get to win that back-and-forth and not me? After all, the problem stated that all rooms are full, even N+3, 4, 5, etc. Why do you get to construct a new room without also constructing a new pre-existing occupant?

You should make a list of companies you are interested in and email them to schedule a visit.

That is not true.

Since https strips referer strings from headers the links are redirected through http so that destination websites know the traffic is coming from Google (sans the contents of the query).
It is more noticeable now because Google is directing more users to encrypted search.

You can test that by searching through the non-encrypted site and see that the is no redirection.
Only 2% Of People Can Multitask Effectively
You do it for all natural numbers n=1, 2, 3 , ... (those are countably infinately many numbers).

Because every natural number n has a successor n+1, you can do it for all of them.

Each n except 1 has a predecessor n-1 from which guests where moved to n. Nobody moved into 1, therefore you can put the new arrivals there.

After that, there are still (countably) infinite many guests. They are just matched up differently with the rooms/numbers.

Because you have infinitely many rooms, you were able to accomodate one more by matching them up differently. That's sort of the point :-)
The Only 2 Tricks You Need for Maximum Productivity
I find this question very perplexing. I can't tell if it arises from a misunderstanding of the concept of "existence" or just a misunderstanding of how important infinities are in a massive number of real world applications. I mean, two doesn't really "exist"; but we sure as hell need it if we want to get any work done.

My company http://customer.io works out of General Assembly. Happy to give you a tour. Feel free to send me an email: colin at customer io
I wouldn't go so far as to say that outside contractors are writing those RFP's, and turning around and winning them, that would lead to allll sorts of legal trouble for all parties involved, a risk no large contracting company would be willing to take. I will say however, that often times, the particular govt office/personal have a working relationship with a contractor, or have done business with them in the past, and will tailor an RFP so that only the company they want to work with will win it. Sometimes this is bad, but sometimes if there is already an established relationship, and a good management structure in place between the two parties, it may be the most effective way to accomplish a task.
This creates a situation where big engineering firms try very hard (and often succeed) in creating RFPs that only they are qualified for. Yes, this really happens.

I want to second this so it doesn't sound like conspiracy theory or sour grapes. Speaking from the perspective of somebody who worked for the state, and went through the process of putting out RFPs and final selection, at least half of RFPs are put out as a technicality after the deal has already been made informally with somebody's quid-pro-quo-friend/drinking buddy/nephew. It's the art of adding bizarre requirements to straightforward jobs, until you find a set that only one known vendor could satisfy - and using those to eliminate all of the other proposals before they ever get to the selection.
Yeah... I developed a bridge (not a native compiler) from Java to Objective-C for the iPhone (called JocStrap: Java/Objective-C bootstrap, for use with the JamVM, which I also ported) back when the device first came out, and I had a ton of people who would contact me because they thought it would make it so they didn't have to learn Objective-C, or that that would be the only reason to want it...

I then had to keep explaining to these developers that "in fact, to use this kind of bridge, you will need to be both an expert at Objective-C and an expert in Java, or you will likely run into some horrible semantic mismatch between how your code at the boundary operates and what the two runtimes each require"; it seems like the same is true of your J2ObjC (especially with regards to memory management).

No product of human thought is "worthy" of using brute violence in preventing another human from having the same thought, or from using that thought to build and sell something useful.

1. Software patents might have helped Ric Richardson's startup survive and grow, but who's to say they haven't cost other developers the chance to survive? Look at what he's doing to other companies now.

2. Is it fair that Richardson's firm should have a monopoly on license checking for 20 years? Just think about that - we're talking about the rights to the broad, basic idea of a license-checking mechanism being allocated to a single person for 20 whole years. What good is it to society to allow what amounts to a highly profitable IP land-grab?

3. Should the patent have been approved in the first place, when what seems to be prior art existed in the '80s? (Based on the X-Plane dev's research.) A bankrupt patent is not a very good argument for Richardson's case.

4. Tightening the standards for issuing patents could conceivably allow developers to launch products and try implementing new features without a particular fear of stepping on patent landmines. That will be good for proliferation and innovation.

5. Patenting and licensing a technology is not the only valid business model in tech. I don't think it's "what the tech business in the US is all about". It's not the only, or best, way.

I'd never thought about that before. I think you could use that argument to prove that strong AI is impossible.

---------------

Consider an AI to be a chat program which maps strings to strings -- all the strings of its input over time to all the strings of its output. There are, by the argument above, an uncountable number of such mapping programs, only a countable number of which can actually be coded.

So, enumerate the ones that can be coded. This shouldn't even be difficult--let's just do it alphabetically.

Now, suppose I have a strong AI called Sal. My first input to Sal is to describe the program enumeration strategy, and instruct her to respond to any string which contains a number by looking up the program on the table corresponding to that number, inputting all the input she has received so far, and then giving a response different than what it would give.

A strong AI can certainly do this.

Sal is not programmable.
The solution would be to have an internal technical agency that is able to write the RFP. Especially one where the incentives (bonuses etc) are tied to the long term success of projects.
Writes to the DB (and more importantly replication since it is single threaded in mysql) are often the bottleneck that is hard to scale. Write through caches can scale reads up very high. It takes a long time to hit the write limit for most applications so often read slaves and memcache is sufficient.
