Thank you so much for your feedback. Now I've implemented it as you recommended it.
What would our political policy look like if the news ignored stock prices and focused on wage percentiles and employment numbers?

We'd still need to do something ASAP, but why not focus on that side of the numbers instead of this stock market fixation?
Good on you! That sounds surprisingly modern compared to what I've heard about for example online banking in France from people who were exchange students there. From what I've heard, you have to show up physically for most bank stuff. Is that true?

Disclaimer: I was told this by people who were exchange students there at least two years ago. Things may have changed and/or be different (i.e. harder) for foreigners.

What’s the difference? Who appointed you the arbiter of property classes?
That line of "logical" reasoning was also why Curtis LeMay wanted to attack the Soviet Union.
Consider that the governments (state & federal) have all your data and have since you were born. Do you think a bigco would have held all that data for that long without making your life a living hell? (imagine the spam and unsolicited phone calls that you would be getting wo the protection of said government). If anything, things have become worse as more bigcos (like insurers) require government managed data (like health records).
Thank you Kai
The really big and important difference is that node handles the requests directly and django is served via an additional server like apache/nginx/lighty.

Somehow I got hold of a link to Yossi Kreinin's 'Frequently Questioned Answers' (http://yosefk.com/c++fqa/index.html) - probably from HN, actually; so I felt duty-bound to add it to SO's C++ Tag Info (http://stackoverflow.com/tags/c%2b%2b/info; awaiting moderation).

(From a former C++ lover who is now much more comfortable programming in C again...)
As a writer, I have the same experience. There are days I can't type fast enough. They're rare, but they happen.

> until it turned out that the public are easy to convince that effective prosecuters should lose their jobs if they visit sex workers.

Well,at the time, I wondered how they nailed Spitzer. In retrospect, I suspect this was one of the first parallel construction scenarios.

However, I don't really care if people visit sex workers. Nevertheless, Spitzer was an anti-prostitution crusader. He deserved to lose his job for the hypocrisy.
It's good to always have a problem in mind from that side project. It might get a little tricky trying to balance that problem in your head with your day job problems, but doing so may help keep up the steam.
Not much room to grow? Says who? Did I miss the referendum in which the computer science salary cap was enacted into law?

The fact that companies are not charitable institutions is exactly the point. If they want more or better engineers they are welcome to pay salaries that will motivate such people to work for them, much as the petroleum industry is currently doing.
The irony of this is that the old USSR would not allow their highly educated people to leave, fearing brain drain. Then the US does not allow highly educated people in. And of course there was the post-WW2 gold rush to grab as many german scientists and engineers as possible, and I don't think the results of that for the US and the USSR are in dispute.

It's like the other irony that we use tariffs to 'protect' domestic industry and embargoes to 'punish' foreign industry, yet they are merely different words for the same thing.
There's lots of little startups with lofty goals wherever you look. I don't think Watsi[1] means anything in particular for the character of San Francisco.

This just isn't a substantive post. It's full of loaded language, highly questionable assertions, and doubtful anecdotes.
Funny how one comment on HN can bring a relatively old and unknown book from obscurity to top spot on Amazon sales chart

Maybe part of the problem is your framing: "pushing code."

My projects don't involve writing much code, but there are always different things I can be working on. I can be working on the visual look of the website. I can be working on firming up my definition of what the project is about. I can be working on talking to people and recruiting prospective audience members. Etc.

If pushing code is turning stale, what other thing can you do to further the project? Those other parts matter and you may be more able to address some other piece of it at some point where "pushing code" is the last thing you feel like doing.

I definitely think it would work a lot better for sysadmins, you're on to something here. The day to day tasks of sysadmins fit more easily into xbox-style "achievements," eg. automating/versioning various aspects of system configuration, uptime records, both system wide and per service. The list goes on.

Tell you what would be good, if your config management framework automatically tracked these things for you. Some sort of international Chef leaderboard :)

Reminds me of Terry Goodkinds 'Wizards First Rule'

"Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true."

Although the wording from the book is quite strong, essentially 'people are more likely to believe things if they want them to be true, or if they are afraid of them being true'.

So far I have found it an important and practical lesson for many situations.

I don't think the argument about software patents is related to capital.

The argument for patents is that it encourages people to invent things, because they have a guarantee of exclusive use which makes it easier to make money from their invention. It also encourages people to make inventions public instead of keeping things secret and then the knowledge being lost, since that's required as part of obtaining a patent. The US Constitution spells this out explicitly: the purpose of patents and other such things is "To promote the progress of science and useful arts...."

The arguments against software patents are basically that it doesn't have the desired effect. Much of what gets patented gets rediscovered independently, and thus it doesn't seem to actually encourage innovation. Nobody seems to ever go digging through patent archives looking for useful software techniques, so the fact of making patented inventions public also doesn't help.

None of this has much to do with software as capital, which would work much the same with or without software patents.
Can I make a friendly reminder that if they didn't use surge pricing then the wait during heavy traffic times would be a lot longer. So it is a tradeoff between higher cost and shorter wait times. I think the real annoyance then is the other customers who want to use the service bidding up my price.
I asked my SO recently how she view the Internet, what it is and how it works. She was honest and told me that, "If I click this button, this websites loads. If that works I'm fine! If it doesn't I will call you. Don't stop working with IT please, if you get it, we need you badly!"

I believe that is a good reason to be accepting towards the current state of affairs. People just don't care. They have more important issues to deal with, deadlines to meet, problems to face.

If you are frustrated and pissed off, great. That means you get it, and that's great!

Now, meditate -- the journey to a perfect secure world will take some time, like beyond your current life span. It's not until you accept that reality that you will make real change globally. Because it takes time, a lot of time.

Thanks for your effort so far.
OP is likely completely invested in the region. It's easy to say "move somewhere else" but I've done enough traveling and investigations in the rest of the USA to know that moving somewhere else would mean a huge setback in terms of career. (Which, go figure, many people here prioritize)
I agree with you. I'd take Vienna's Prater park - or even better, De Efteling in the Netherlands - over Disneyland any time of day. All the staples are there - none of the slick, expensive shine.

They're certainly less fashionable than they were 20 years ago, and I'd not expect to see them talked about so much in job ads.

It's a bit odd, to teach a language through design patterns: design patterns are really best-practice workarounds beyond the language where the standard language toolkit doesn't provide an obviously best way of solving a problem. It's a run-before-walk approach.

No, they don’t. The job advertisements you’re describing would be very clearly illegal. http://www.eeoc.gov/prohibited-employment-policiespractices

> It is illegal for an employer to publish a job advertisement that shows a preference for or discourages someone from applying for a job because of his or her race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy)…

> It is also illegal for an employer to recruit new employees in a way that discriminates against them because of their race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy)…

yes, but without a universal health care in my country I do not see it as realistic. Too many people in my family have had health problems. There is no sufficient safety net to support innovation in America.

The idea that even healthcare being passed could be thrown out as soon as there is a leadership change, means that this would need to sustain itself through a racing change prior to me seeing it as realistic.

I could see finishing out a political term, if these laws were passed sufficiently early
It's a rational inference if you read what the definition of a public performance is.

Yes, playing music at the office is against the law.[0] It's just difficult and extremely impractical to enforce. UK law is similar, and as others have attested on this post, rightsholders are much more aggressive in enforcing them there - if it's not absurd that that would constitute a public performance in the UK, why is it absurd that it wouldn't constitute a public performance in the US, when the law is written the same way?

> It is 100% legal for someone to play music for themselves, full stop.

If you're playing music on a speaker in a public place (and the law defines what a public place is), then you're not playing music for yourself, it's a public performance.

> Otherwise every radio everywhere would be banned, or come with a warning label.

There are specific exceptions in the law that cover playing the radio in an establishment (17 U.S. Code § 110(5)(B)). Yes, the limitations on public performance would apply that broadly if there were not a specific provision in the law carving out an exception for these, and even then they're required to follow certain provisions.

> And of course, if you film someone listening to music - real or rehearsed (like a cop) - and put it up on YouTube you're probably breaking copyright. Maybe.

There is no copyright infringement here, this is covered by fair use. If this went to court, a judge would determine the video was published for the purposes of commentary/criticism of government officials, among other fair use factors. Otherwise government officials could come to an arrangement with rightsholders and always play licensed music at all times and deny these licenses to critics in order to prevent any critical videos from ever being published, which is obviously just circumventing the First Amendment.

Even if Instagram had taken it down, it wouldn't mean it wouldn't be fair use as platforms are notoriously conservative with respect to these matters, but the fact is that Instagram hasn't even taken this video down for copyright infringement. So your theory about this being copyright infringement is moot.

The one situation where full automation makes sense is traffic jams on highways. Simple control requirements, very hard for the algorithm to catastrophically mess up (or require rapid intervention to prevent life threatening accidents), and it’s extremely boring for humans to drive manually.
Difficulty and effort are independent. Some people try to do hard things. Some people don't try to do easy things. Outcomes depend on difficulty, effort, and other factors.

I think the issue is partly that people don't see cars as large industrial robots because we're just so used to them.

Everyone who has ever written code for a robot knows you should treat every pinch point as a finger blender, but the cars look nothing like them.

Tesla's branding may make that excusable for the layman, but for the employees at Tesla, that branding is incredibly irresponsible
It may show that for the drivers who currently have access, but Tesla selects/limits the beta participants based on proprietary "safe driver" scoring that isn't publically documented. So it's the product manufacturer who can turn the accident probability screw here, or could also get it wrong. And I think that gets to the bottom of what makes many people feel uneasy.
I don’t disagree with anything you’re saying, but you’re confusing “what is” for “what ought to be”. It’s Hume’s classic “is-ought problem”.

The claim that there is no truth is a pointless one. Well, it is pointless to believe*. There may be uses to making the claim.

*exception: if someone can observe your innermost beliefs and is threatening that if you don’t believe it, then they will do something you don’t want, then it could be worthwhile. But that’s true of any belief.

I'm not really sure what the article is going for with this sign-off. The Saudi government hired a spy, he did good work, and when his cover was blown they gave him a domestic job related to his work.

If the side project has significant costs that they'll cover, that changes

do, but maybe not if your new employers have lined up a marketing team.

Baroque it is. Clojure might be a death sentence for the proguard approach, considering how deeply the terms clojure and invokedynamic seem to be connected. But if you happen to depend on some deep library stacks only for some minor scraps of it's functionality it might still be worth it, define a blanket exception for your own code and, if not picked up automatically, for the few entry points where you call from clojure into the java world. If you don't mind keeping twice as much as strictly necessary, kicking out some low hanging fruits shouldn't be that hard. (but in combination with build times and future friction a division against proguard might still be very, very rational)
