That's just.. a basic misunderstanding of statistics.

Sure, but that's not at all how the sampling was done. Just read the article!

Issuing a contract is bearish or bullish depending on the price.

I don't think we disagree? Just disagreeing that there are two types of public companies, "those that do or will pay dividends" and "those that don't" since the latter group doesn't actually exist.

Rightfully so - it would be incredibly confusing to have a third-party python with the same name but maintained by a different group of people. There's no "right" to the python name. If you actually look at the issue discussi

Do you know a priori that none of these companies will ever pay dividends or buy back? So many facile understandings of pricing in these comments - there is a real mechanism that ties profits to pricing, it's not just "sell when

> you buy the stock or sell it based on their current profits. Yes, based on the anticipation of future dividends and share buybacks. Stock trading is more than just gambling but for profits.

> Companies that pay dividends or make share buy-backs are more vulnerable in a crisis All public companies are anticipated to pay dividends or buy-back at some point in time, it's what underlies stock pricing.

Yes and that's what this "lossy" conversion to daytime does as well, incorporate prior knowledge, but that prior knowledge is about how images of real world things function during night versus day.

Yep, plus the fact that certain vaccines aren't effective in every single person but it is hard to know apriori who those people are.

But they don't have autonomy. Maybe they lower fatality rate but they are not anywhere near Waymo (or Cruise for that matter) if you look at the metrics.

I have similar thoughts. I think that Typescript could allow for a lot of the "bolt-on" type checking that I find appealing with static languages and most of these are just interfaces to the same C/C++ framework, so no reason

This is the declarative paradigm in the same way that python maintaining an abstract representation of your code that it then passes down to a C interpreter is a "declarative" paradigm. Sure, there are some analogies, but it is st

Sometimes things take a little longer to develop. I don't know who will create it, but from my perspective, the need for a statically typed "differentiable" language is extremely high and C++ is not it.

Is there a way to vectorize that and turn it into a GPU kernel using a macro?

Be hard on the article, but easier on the concept - I think there is a lot of potential for differential programming w/ Swift, but this article is not a good advocate.

That doesn't appear to be entirely correct - from my research, it appears to actually have been about 12 deaths (the last on March 28th from https://www.mhlw.go.jp/stf/newpage_10599.html ) but there appear to be mu

For food, fuel, and other essentials? If stuff like that starts getting disrupted to the point that people are actually dying, you can bet that we are going to lift our shelter-in-place. I have seen no evidence of that being borne out at al
