because we are not seeing a high level of hospitalization or deaths.
Michael, I disagree with your point but I recognize your integrity. You just posted your name and city, and your HN profile shares more personal information. I respect that you are willing to stand behind your claim.…
> nothing bad has happened ummm, WTF? 10x increase in teen suicide doesn't qualify as "bad"? or repeated DOJ lawsuits against Facebook because their advertising practices result in highly effective racial discrimination?
Oh, man, you had great parents. Hopefully in other aspects as well.
Used to work at a payments company. Yes, you need to be *very* explicit in how you model currency amounts and precision. See also earlier post about Canadian rounding rules. Some of the "logic" is regulatory/compliance…
I guess that might depend on how much you trust Musk.
Yes, because tidyverse should be called tidycurse. It's designed to be easy to teach, under the assumption that ALL you learn is tidycurse. Just don't use it! Use datatable instead.
US citizen and long-time expat calling bullshit on this. That's not the purpose of taxes and that's not how citizenship works in any other country except North Korea. Looking at the list of "benefits" another person…
I love this unique insight: "Fire control computers ... solve ... fire control problems." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwf5mAlI7Ug U.S. NAVY BASIC MECHANISMS OF FIRE CONTROL COMPUTERS MECHANICAL COMPUTER…
Clever! with the challenge being getting a 100K credit limit and assuming your student debt is < 100K.
> But why don’t market forces correct these issues? Another theory: The value creation is not linked to the value capture. So market forces make a bad feedback loop. Look, I'm totally pro business, but business is only…

I don't see why it wouldn't be. Conscious thought is only the tip of the iceberg; even Western thought has a long tradition of noting that Eureka moments come during periods when you are not rationally engaging with the…
Maybe it was a joint project?
I think the full acronym would be Keep It Simple Stupid, Active Sanity Saver
Hmm, lots to dig into here. The expectation that government provides certain services... The nature of fiat currencies and what actually makes the USD worth anything or even usable as a medium of exchange... Basic…

Why do you assume that well being is the same as economic progress? Look, I like indoor plumbing as much as the next guy, but it isn't the only contributor to my well-being.
A great deal of the innovation I've seen or read about has been pushing costs onto the public or other thefts of the commons. I see how this is a necessary feature of innovation (by definition "innovation" implies a new…
The team and/or org may have more impact than you think. I've seen people who were stars in one company totally bomb in another.
I have failed simple coding interviews because of stress. Been coding for 2 decades or more, know I'm good at it, and have had multiple other people confirm this. But sometimes under interview stress, I can lock up.…
As you point out, the problem is that the rate of change is crazy higher than what almost all multi-celled life is used to. I'm on board with your view that we are a part of nature, not separate, but when I think of…
And in further support of what you are saying, when I'm in the flow state, either for programming or for workout or for other hobbies, I am not conscious. That's kind-of the definition of flow. or people who describe an…
> starships to mars for colonization in mid to late stages ?? Did I miss a news article?? I know we've successfully landed on the moon, but we don't have reliable ways of commuting there let alone setting up a colony. I…
