I guess sex education and teaching about consent at an early age is the only thing that can be done.

If there has been adequate adult supervision, the eight year old girl would not have been repeatedly raped for two months.
Sounds like a myth. No crt producer would allow such a case and even if it is true, I would expect lots of law suits.
Yeah, but do you want to be one of those companies? That money comes with strings attached. Get rich quick schemes are appealing and all, but you still have to like it enough to do the work and to sell it.

I'm leaning more to the Wolfram Software / 37 Signals model.

If you tend to use search engines to find websites, you are trusting the search engine to give you the website for Chase Bank.

> This [billionaire] class has no idea what to do with its wealth, much less the power that results from it. It can only withdraw and extract, socially and economically, while the political justifications for its existence melt away.

Would love to hear his perspective on Bill Gates.

It's very interesting to think about this because most people pursue wealth for this very reason - to be freed from constraints of responsibility and to do whatever they want.

However, it seems to be the opposite once you get too much wealth - you all of a sudden become (due to the closed economic and political system) extremely publically responsible.

This is also the first generation of such public billionaires in an era where everyone with power has their lives projected on a live screen for people to see.
You did this! I remember posts about this on cemetech. Tiny world.
> I think radio is a lot like landline telephones: it's "dying", but it's taking a long time because...
there's a small number of corporate owners owning the majority of stations. FTFY

When the same corporate owner controls multiple radio stations in the same market, the listening experience sucks. I've recently started spending time with someone that listens to the local hip-hop stations (there are 2). They play the same 5 songs all day long. They go to commercial at the same time. They have the exact same format where each station has the same concept show at the same time. Just pick the on-air personalities you like better. I would be totally expect to find the same style station from the same owners in other cities would follow the exact same formula.
LSP will definitely change that.

> I think the best description is that I am cynical of the "mission"

Of course. Why wouldn't you be? The mission of a for-profit enterprise is to be able to continue being a for-profit enterprise tomorrow.

> How do I know what the source of the problem is?

If the work were something that someone would do for free, you probably wouldn't be paid to do it, certainly not the amount you are being paid. Wanting to believe in the mission is asking to be paid partially in a currency other than money. With a FANG salary, that extra compensation is probably going to be slight.

Why is Twitter discriminating against US users? Also, how do I ensure I can get that username that's been squatted and has no activity at all?
If you have ability / skill that is valuable, then half of what you said no longer applies.

And if you possess that and still can't stand the status quo, you get to invent a new one: start your own thing, and do it your way.

I discovered very early on that I was incapable of working for other people, for numerous reasons. So I figured out how I could arrange my life so that I wouldn't have to ever work for someone else; and of course, there were trade-offs, but they were worth it.

I really enjoyed this writeup. The author's persistence and commitment to a problem he found interesting reminds me of the energy I had before I worked at a big software company.
The story was good, but I was intrigued by the format of the "article". It really catered to today's attention deficit society, in a good way. It pulled me in and I read all the way through. Normally, I would be too impatient to do so. I hope this format evolves for long-form articles, we need a change on the web.
Hm, very interesting. I don't have any response to this, but I just wanted to let you know that I find your comment compelling and I'm rethinking my position.
Adding to the point about visible poverty, there is also http://openborders.info/blog/the-border-as-blindfold/ , which quotes:

"Migration controls serve as a blindfold, enabling Americans to ignore most of the poverty, deprivation, and vulnerability that exist in the world by keeping it physically at a distance. In the past, people lived without this blindfold. The wealthy lived amidst poverty, sometimes engaging in generous charity to the poor, sometimes learning, perhaps callously, to ignore them.

Citizens of a modern welfare state, by contrast, feel that the state should coerce people to give to the poor so as to remove from the streets the kind of visible poverty that would make them feel obliged to give, allowing them to feel conscientious and affluent at once. The price of this moral complacency is paid by would-be immigrants who are not allowed to come to America to better their condition by honest labor, lest their poverty trouble the consciences of affluent Americans."
We're definitely past one cuil here, but you raise another interesting idea: could you imagine measuring something like a cuil for a block of quotations?

I've noticed a lot of quote sets are just bunches of interesting ideas. Some are very finely selected to avoid overlap, forming a sort of axiom basis for the curator, but many are just a honkin' pile of neat quips. So how would you measure along that scale? To date, the cuil is largely a witty remark on bizarrely off-topic search results, but it'd be entertaining to think about measuring curation quality.
Hi kibwen,

I think it's pretty clear that you can minimize the size of either a sum type or a non-sum type by using pointers rather than values, as you pointed out. But, obviously, Go supports returning values, not just pointers. In that case, Go will have to allocate space for the maximum-sized component of the value type, which could be arbitrarily large. This is a non-obvious fact unless you're a language implementor, or just really interested in the implementation. This somewhat violates the concept that the performance costs of code should be clear.

This is less of an issue in languages like Java that do not have value types. When everything is a pointer, all of the elements of the sum type have the same size (or at least, a size less than 8 bytes, in the case of primitives). This may not be the only, or even the best reason for not implementing them, but it's still something to consider.

It's true that sum types can be more space-efficient than using nullable struct members like my example did. But this mainly seems like an issue when you have more than two types in the sum type, which seems to come up very rarely. The difference between returning two 8-byte pointers and returning a type tag and an 8-byte pointer is not a big deal on a 64-bit machine. You are using 2 64-bit registers in any case. Maybe there's cases I haven't thought of, but at first glance, the efficiency argument for sum types seems very weak.

[Variant types are] alluded to in the FAQ:

Thanks! I didn't see that before. Interesting.
I find your description of bipolar to be interesting, so thanks.

It wasn't clear to me that the author actually meant "bipolar" in the medical sense. I think he meant something else, and it was just a convenient, but perhaps confusing, term.
It's especially egregious here in a hit piece that deliberately makes the things he said horrible.

But even if it was an accurate representation, the media has to ask "is it our job as a powerful outlet to literally punish this much less powerful person because they have opinions we disagree with".

If it wasn't "opinions we disagree with" but like "has killed 3 people" sure appoint yourself judge, jury, and executioner. But in other cases yes it makes you an asshole to think that you should enforce your will by punishing someone who disagrees with you.

I came looking for a comment on negotiation, and frankly, it was a disappointing comment.

Yes, everyone should learn about negotiation. And as the authors of Negotiation Genius point out, you're making the mistake most people make - only considering your BATNA and not considering the other party's BATNA.

Ask yourself what alternative Facebook has if you insist on a Bay Area salary while living in the Midwest. The answer will be "More than they had pre-COVID." This reduces your bargaining power. Allowing remote work has significantly increased their pool of applicants. For every one of you, there are probably over 10 people as good as you who are happy taking a 20-30% salary increase while still getting paid 30% less than SV folks.

While your advice is sound, you are only providing one half of the dynamic. One of the lessons in almost all negotiation books is to spend time understanding the position of the other side.
That's interesting, I didn't know Racket worked like that. What I meant wasn't so much that its a new idea, rather that it's a good one.
I don't think you can conclude anything from those numbers. On the one hand Brazil is very likely underreporting and has a much younger population, but on the other hand their medical care is not as good.
What about Excel ? ;)
Unless you rewrite the content of every input and textarea and reposition the cursor at every input event, or monitor which element has focus at any given time, you have some DOM components with an internal state.
No it isn’t. White hats are very careful to ensure that their work does not affect other people. “I gave the money back” isn’t good enough.
This is not really a helpful mnemonic -- security breaches are adversarial. Boeing airliners are not designed to keep flying to the intended destination if the cockpit is breached by hijackers.
That would make an interesting answer to the Fermi paradox - nobody is travelling because everyone stays at home to perform PoW calculations in a dyson cloud. Which does rather remind me of Accelerando by Charlie Stross - maybe Economics 2.0 used by the vile offspring is a giant PoW scheme:

Because nobody credible in the vaccine industry is saying "we could speed up XYZ if we had a bit more money." If they did, they'd find themselves buried under an avalanche of cash before they finished the sentence.

The story right now is one of the entire industry ramping up production as fast as they possibly can with money being no object.
Not even homogenization, for the US this will be the precurser to the next round of Layoff's, and all those people that took part in the #LearnToCode and other movements to retrain people displaced from other employment into Programming jobs / office style jobs are going to be shocked when their nice remote job is outsourced to another nation.

Round 1 was the manufacturing Sector, Round 2 will be the office sector.

Economically the US is on a down hill path, and there is not a money printer large enough to fix this problem
Nomad is good at running all sort of workloads, not just container workloads. Also there is a plugin[0] to run containers without docker so Nomad is headed in the right direction for scenarios where you only need a scheduler.

I love my incandescent bulbs. It is a threat to remove them. The heat they produce is amazing in the winter. I use a 100 watt bulb to keep me warm at my desk. Heat bodies not buildings.

I've been practicing this since a child and I'm 36 now.

To heat yourself, check out: https://youtu.be/3gjvOOlHmsU

For actual good LED lamps (not the crap they push in USA) check out: https://youtu.be/klaJqofCsu4

TLDR most LED lamp are running over spec which cause them to fail and become a commodity rather than infra.

I had a rear projection DLP LED TV which ran its red LED over spec and it burned out at least 3 times as fast as the green and blue.

https://www.foxhop.net/samsung/HL-T5087SA/red-LED-failure

The heat is not always just a byproduct, sometimes you need or want the heat.

Compare this 100 watt bulb to a tiny space heater and you will see the difference in your electricity bill. Buy a "kill a watt" meter to start testing you appliances rather assuming incandescent is evil.

I made an SSB receiver in GRC, that was educational. SSB doesn’t have a carrier so you have to provide your own (GRC has a block that can generate a sine wave of a given frequency). The ability to probe the graph anywhere makes learning easier in a way that physical building wouldn’t be.

I am not educated enough about the topic to pick a side about if higher wages will lead to less jobs, but from my perspective I would imagine the evidence to reveal itself in a recession, not the current economy.
You're getting downvoted, but you have a point. Word processors are for writing documents; if you really care about typography in the final product, at some point you need to use a real typesetting tool. From what I can tell, most large companies and governments draft documents in Word and then send them to graphic designers to reformat in InDesign or something and publish as PDF. You can tell when a document has been typeset in Word; it feels unfinished and unprofessional, even if it looks better than a LibreOffice document.
A core is a core... whatever is running on the core will be affected by the down-clocking. It's not possible for a single core to be operating at two different speeds simultaneously.

Note that a CPU can switch fairly quickly between different clock speeds. It's not instantaneous but it's pretty quick.

I'd encourage CPU pinning if you can (pinning each VM to a specific core). If you're depending on oversubscribing, that won't be possible, but presumably you'd already be expecting more of an impact from noisy neighbours anyway.
The question is did this raise average wages? There is litle benefit otherwise unless the min wage is way too low
All of these issues can change - by people running Linux on their Macbooks, encountering the issues you describe - and then, scratching the itch and fixing the problem.

But of course, unless someone actually tries, the itch never arises.

So your discouragement could be interpreted as an attempt to reduce the effectiveness of Linux on the Macbook platform. Why would you actually encourage that?
Hm, interesting. I'm certainly largely ignorant of how cgroups works, but I was wishing for a tool like "chroot" that could also "ch-network-namespace" or something. I've skimmed over cgroups documentation [1] several times, but never quite gotten a solid mental model of how everything fits together.

Just used this and Dragon Silicon was incredibly helpful. This site just helps add to the fact that the internet is full of kind strangers. not to sound like a creep or anything. yeah.
In my youth, I had what could only really be called an obsession with Ultima Online, I played it on and off (including playing on and running independent servers,) for the better part of a decade and the economics of the world were always really intriguing to me. When I started playing, it was totally possible to make a living as a humble miner. At some point, we started stealing ore - I'm not proud of it, but early UO was a very Hobbesian place.

But things started to get really interesting once everyone was capable of reliably accumulating more gold than practically necessary (I preferred hunting liches on the fourth level of Deceit) the de facto currency became overt displays of wealth. The built in prices became meaningless. There was a market for housing that differed in interesting ways from shard to shard. There were whole malls that housed secondary markets for bulk purchases of reagents and crafting supplies.

I literally went furniture shopping for my house at the carpenter shop in the mall run by Dragon's Claw in a castle outside Britain... and while I was there, I probably picked up some regs.

As a player, I remember the early days of the pure black dye tub. IIRC I bought my first one for 25,000 gold [edit: for reference, a boat cost 15k, and a house deed, 40k] and instantly dyed everything I owned this anti-color. It was a very trying time, waking up not knowing if your valuables were still there. But it's really interesting to read the events from the perspective of a very reasonably upset artist. The way they ended up handling the black dye tub, however, became the sort of precedent for this type of incident.

The most compelling aspect of UO was the diverse ways in which people made use of the world and its resources - and OSI seemed to be, on the whole, fairly receptive to these things. One other good example was the practice of "Server Wars." Every Sunday morning, the server would save and go down for updates. When this happened, everyone would get a grey message after which no activity would be saved, but the server would stay up for a while. This became the worldwide cue to go to your local graveyard for a colossal melee which would be wiped away when the server came up.

I could go on at great length about other ways in which the world of UO was great, but I'm moving tomorrow and really need to sleep.
How about defining views?
Agreed. The narrator just got finished saying, "...over the din of the internet.", and then in the very next sentence they show little notifications with "connect to your social networks"?

The problem is that it isn't a choice of MSIE6/7/8 or MSIE9, it is MSIE6/7/8 AND 9.

While it hasn't always been that way, at least lately (since MSIE7 and 8) Microsoft has been working hard to get rid of the older versions as well and the newer versions (while certainly not perfect) most definitly improves on the shitty standards support found in MSIE 6.

In MS's latest technet newsletter there is even a link to a paper on virtualizing older versions of MSIE so you can upgrade to something modern while retaining compatibility with older legacy apps requiring MSIE 6. [1]

So while MS can be blamed for producing MSIE 6, the blame for that MSIE is still around lies entirely in corporate IT and them not using the options they most definitely have for getting rid of it for mainstream use.
