I don't have a clear position here, but why not? Shareholders can do their due diligence after all. If you are not directly involved in the decision making that caused suffering to occur then you perhaps incur monetary losses (either t

Still asking for Github permissions for me (to view a demo / example) - without it I have no idea what this is. Even screenshots or something there would give an idea.

That graph puts things in perspective. It turns out that I'm living in a country where opioids are not very available compared to other nations. Here you can't even get cough syrup with codeine in it without a prescription and eve

I think with how DMCA works, Github doesn't have to (or need to) rule one way or another. Someone sends a notice and it is taken down swiftly. If the owner thinks this was in bad faith or a mistake, they can challenge it but if you are

Sorry I was not clearer. What I meant was an operation like in China where you have to be careful about what you look for on the Internet. I saw a video from China where the police was interrogating someone supposedly because of his remarks

As a non-American I'm also curious about the mass necessity of opioid painkillers to begin with. From what I hear, people are prescribed opioids post surgery etc. which is bonkers to me as a foreigner. I'm a middle aged person and

The recommendation you are making here has nothing to do with software engineering though. If you were a healthcare software business executive though, I'd be more inclined to agree.

I don't think using data as input to an algorithm necessarily breaks copyright law. I can read a book to post my impression on it somewhere right? I can read it and say "it was beautiful" on twitter. I can then automate my &q

It's not just about design. For instance there is Canvas and WebGL for interactive content. Different GPU's draw things slightly differently. Someone creates a canvas in the background, draws stuff, reads it back and since your ma

What were your ambitions that required such resilient storage if I may ask? Not being snarky or anything, genuinely curious.

I can't really follow your logic there. In my mind for something to be predatory it should be your pretty much only option while promising you the world, an end to your tough situation. If you have a choice and you end up worse off, yo

But this is not supposedly true for index funds by definition. They are passive. They just buy whatever is in the index. No other decisions made.

It's a weird thought I admit but as a computer game, I believe "Tetris" could have been independently "discovered". Board size - gravity rules - scoring etc. are arbitrary but there is some fundamental elegance abou

We'll see about that. Why would airlines accept to operate these planes at a significant loss after the loss they incurred with this whole fiasco to begin with? I personally wouldn't board this plane until it had a spotless record

Yes but that only explains the magnitude of this disaster for Boeing. People will not merrily board these planes just because Boeing is between a rock and a hard place, because of their own wrongdoing no less.

by dkarras 7y ago
Will people even want to board these planes after it became clear how Boeing handled (botched) the development of this plane and how FAA insisted on keeping these planes up in the air (while stating they were perfectly safe as any other) un

In this case that wasn't an option as these are the models so they had to present real info, at least to get paid.

The idea is that a certain simplification could work enough to be valuable. It is similar with gravity isn't it? We don't have a grand unified theory of quantum mechanics, but even Newton's abstractions serves us well in cert

I mean it all depends on your runway. If you are young with very little responsibilities and can run on noodles, with some savings you can extend your runway and can chase more difficult to sell ideas. But if you have very limited time (cas

It is usually about coming up with an idea that addresses a burning need. Getting enough traction becomes quicker that way and provides you with the necessary runway. So instead of getting "wow" as a response when you showcase, it

Which one? I was talking about something like citalopram / escitalopram which is very highly selective. Though I know that ED is a possible side effect even for escitalopram.
