To where? Surely not to work since that's been made obsolete since autumn 2025.

1% failure rate for space rockets might count as very reliable, but if 1% of all cars explode then we are in for a ride.

F9 reliability is 99.58%. The current version is at 99.84% and the last 2 years over more than 250 launches is at 100%.

The Falcon 9 has a much lower failure rate than that.

Is there any evidence/footage that this actually happened in front of a live audience? And not just on a screen that was shown to a live audience? Cause that's all can find.

Sorry for being skeptical but Elons track record of being honest at such demos isn't stellar.

Edit: To the downvoters, this is a serious question. I'd really love to see such evidence.

Could you elaborate? What do you do after having done this once? Where does the N-1th value come from if you didn't save it?

Unfortunately, pop means two different things then. For the python lists, it pops "from the right" but for TwoStackAgg it pops "from the left". That makes the code harder to grasp.

Maybe use popleft?

What do you need self.values_agg for? It is only used for the aggregate of values not yet represented in cum_aggs if finalize is called. That value could just get computed right there on the fly.

Is it maybe for repeated finalize calls? To essentially re-use those computations?

`values` might be quite large (up to W), without `values_agg` getting the current window value would be O(W) rather than O(1).

Note that there isn't a `finalize` call, only an `eval`, which gives the current aggregate over the window. You typically use these sliding window functions in a way where you want to get the current value every time the window moves.

yeah, I agree it's a bit distracting

> Dermatologists are hit or miss.

That's even relative to the condition you have. The right match of doctor to condition gives you the right treatment. But the same doctor facing a different condition might be clueless. From that angle, the whole situation looks less weird.

The quality of a doctor then could be measured in how many conditions they are good at, maybe weighted by likelihood of occurrence, as well as how self aware they are about whether they have a clue or not.

A corrollary is that a single data point does not tell you much. "Go to this dermatologist, they are great" is only good advice if you have the same condition as the recommender as their sample size is likely very small.

Some are just worse that the others. Those C and D students have to work somewhere.

Even if that is the case (which others here have argued against), maximizing the income is not the same as maximizing cavity fillings.

> The part I find particularly … funny is the disagreements.

Does anybody else find it hillarious that this statement could just as well apply to programming, or even software engineering in its entirety? We the HN crowd should be in a perfect position to be able to understand, emphasize and even explain how this is possible and maybe that it is not that surprising.

Let anyone who has never said “this old big ball of mud isn’t even worth fixing, the only move forward is to completely throw it away and rewrite it from scratch!” cast the first stone.

> The advantage of the less developed countries is that you can get pretty good private medical care for a reasonably price.

What is a "reasonable price"? Relative to a rich country, the price may be low. But relative to the average income to common folks in that country it is likely just as expensive as a comparable private option is in a rich country. Apples vs. oranges.

Iow, you are describing the perspective of a rich person in a poor country. I don't think a rich person in the U.S. (top 0.1 percentile, let's say) minds the health case costs in the U.S. either.

The average white collar or knowledge worker in my 3rd world country can usually pay for mid-tier private medical care, including specialists, without any problem.

Of course the top tier private hospital and specialists can be pretty expensive, but is not that expensive to avoid the public/government health system.
