Sometimes it doesn't work and no one can tell.
I wonder if there is a niche to ameliorate this sort of thing by offering payday loans on insurance payouts. The incentives are pro-social: insurance companies have an incentive to delay payouts, because their profits…

Most threads will include a claim that Gnome is imitating macos poorly, but as far as I can tell it is imitating i3 rather well.
Corrections staff at Riker's island get unlimited, unauthenticated sick leave, which may partly explain the large number here, along with their employment as clerks, bakers, door control, etc. Incidentally this is what…
Riker's island is very poorly designed. A big part of the problem is that it is quite inaccessible from the rest of the city. This has a ton of knock-on effects: 1. There's a severe shortage of guards. Anything that…
> Is it just me or does ESG feel like a giant virtue signal from companies and investors? Well yeah, it is explicitly intended as a signal that investors can use to select virtuous companies.
I've heard it called a "non-central example". That has a negative connotation though, I wish there was a more neutral term. The statement "all natural numbers are greater than 1" is false, and it's not helpful to object…
Sure, but then they just send you a letter correcting your mistake, you OK it if it looks right, and either they send you a check or you send them a check. You don't have to pay a fine and you don't get audited. (I am…
Ignorant question: is Israel literally an ally of the US? I know they are not in NATO or 5 Eyes, and I don't think they have some other close agreement, like US and Japan.
It's the second one. This kerfluffle was started by Blackrock moving into real estate. Blackrock is a retail investment-management company that everyone from the middle class up invests with. So, it's not really "you…
You're not wrong. I guess what I'd like is the ability to apply (up to) two type annotations, with the second one a subtype of the first, and use the first for dispatch and the second for documentation/testing/static…
One thing that I miss coming from python to Julia, is typing-as-documentation. In python I often write type annotations that are much more restrictive than they need to be. They work as checkable documentation of how a…
As I understand it the issue is * Currently the US welfare agencies will provide ~any FDA-approved drug for someone with the illness for which the drug was approved * In this case, they probably won't - in the worst…
GPL is also a possible alternative. Big companies pay you back by contributing to the project, insofar as it is worth it to them to maintain a fork and add features for their own use.
> They don’t run corrections based on the number of simulations they run, they don’t take into account other variables, etc I think this looks like a bigger problem specifically because you are in AutoML. Suppose you…
I agree that there is "information" in the colloquial sense there, or even in the Kolmogorov sense. I don't understand how there is information in the entropy sense, because I do not see a random variable anywhere in…
I'm not sure this answers the question. The wikipedia page is about the entropy of a probability distribution. But the information speed limit is supposed to apply even if everything is totally deterministic. If I write…
It's kind of the anti-nethack. Explicitly not simulation-y, big effort to be playable without spoilers, character building is de-emphasized.

It's a bit of a chicken-or-the-egg problem. If more people move to SF then more brunch places will open and the city will be able to afford to run more busses. Maybe SF could credibly commit to adding more density in…
I was just thinking about this. Seems like it could also be great if the type system could make a distinction between vectors and dual vectors, alleviating "you got the wrong axis" errors. But maybe for something like…

Options prices are usually quoted per share even though you buy them in increments of 100 shares. So GP paid $25,000 per contract.
