"I don't want to be painted as anti-privacy and I would say that I'm not, but the principal goal of this legislation is not to send your data to the NSA"

This is what folks with this argument are missing - it doesn't matter one bit what the goal of legislation is, especially when it involves immunity for very vague things. Just because you will use it for that, does not prevent someone else from abusing it now or in the future. The point of legislation should be to protect the people.

Just like the author of the Patriot Act never intended for it to be abused the way it was. And these things are extraordinarily difficult to curtail after the fact.

"Sensenbrenner supported the Amash Amendment, a plan to defund the NSA's telephone surveillance program. "Never, he said, did he intend to allow the wholesale vacuuming up of domestic phone records, nor did his legislation envision that data dragnets would go beyond specific targets of terrorism investigations." The Amendment fell seven votes short of the number it needed to pass."

Also, I don't really buy that businesses are limited by their inability to share threat information, because they have been doing this for years.
It is different - US is chasing monetarily goals mostly and NSA want to read everything. Chinese are trying to prevent thought crimes and political discourse.

Although there are few isolated cases where DMCA was abused to stifle discourse, they are far and between.

> Bayesian logic would dictate that events in Switzerland should cause us to be more skeptical of arguments in favor of inflation.

Depends on prior evidence. Current thinking on inflation/deflation did not drop into economists' heads from space yesterday. It was developed by analyzing hundreds of years of real experience in real economies. Before we alter our beliefs too much today, we should at least be aware of the full scope of evidence on the topic.
Immediacy is a problem, yes. That's why at the start of a LVT people must be allowed a grace period of a couple of years to pay. Some argue for deferring such taxes until the property is sold or inherited, but that could lead to even worse situations like the one described.

Gold is one of the least remarkable metals in that respect, given how soft it is, and how easy it is to melt (both that the melting point is reasonable, but also that it is relatively hard to mess up the melting compared to many other metals). You can do a lot with gold with next to no equipment and patience that required substantial technological advances to be possible with many other metals.

Probably because Tor Browser reduces the time precision.[1]

It seems like it would be nice to require some sort of user privilege escalation like accessing location, or webcam to access high precision timing. This would close off a huge class of time related side channels.

I think we already migrated. Right now, each story is a bundle of facts and statements. A chatbot could disaggregrate those facts, and feed the news consumer answers to questions they have about the subject without imposing such a total order to the presentation of those facts. That would be the give and take, and the conversation could range far beyond a single piece of news. It's all about contextualizing events. Reporters and editors make a lot of decisions about the context they present, but in this new choose-your-own-adventure format, readers could explore context beyond the limits imposed by a small newshole and all the decisions that entails.

> What's wrong with vulcanize (combines all your components into one single html file)?

Most of the issues I ran into were relating to inconsistent pathing. It was difficult to get every type of thing that could use a path (image tags, css, html inclusions, etc) working in a way that worked at both the path of the component and the newly created path when combined. Perhaps this has changed since the last I used Vulcanize but it was very painful at the time.

I also had a hell of a time getting the google maps, and a few other google components, to Vulcanize with the rest of my components but I honestly can't remember the issues now.

> Polymer now offers Shared styles, so that you don't have to duplicate your css

That's Polymer specific though; is there a way to do that with native web components? I could be missing something but it looks specific to Polymer. Regardless I'm glad this is being addressed to a degree but the solution seemed somewhat unintuitive as it's not using CSS semantics for driving the style.

Essentially the majority of projects I work on have developers and designers on them. The designers are usually pretty good with CSS, Illustrator and Photoshop so anything outside of CSS requires quite a bit of learning for them so that's a hill I have to battle with techniques such as these.

I also know a good number of people who have a "regular" taxi driver. Mostly in southern Europe specifically, though. Sometimes it's because they have some connection to the driver (relative / friend-of-a-friend / friend-of-a-relative) so they want to give that person their business rather than a random driver. Other times it's just someone they got a recommendation for and like. Even some tourists do, if they're the kind of tourist who goes to the same place every summer (e.g. the same town in Crete).

Keep in mind that stores employ people, and those employees don't often get a say in whether they work black friday or not (not if they want to stay very long at that store).

Ultimately, that's why I kind of finally got on board with the fact that most stores (and even restaurants) are closed on Sundays in France - especially since the rule on whether a store can be open on Sunday is that the owner of the store needs to be present during all business hours.
I don't think that's a fair comparison. Why would you need so many selectors in the 'regular' case and what are they doing? I've worked on some pretty complex apps and have never even come close to 200 selectors in total; probably not even 100 but I'm not 100% sure.

Shadowdom allows for specific targeting within a component; is that necessary faster than a query using another element / class name for targeting a component in "regular" usage? I'm curious on the numbers here as I don't know that you're necessary right or wrong here.
If you haven't, I would recommend you look into m-Pesa. In some countries (not all countries), M-Pesa uses USSD (like Tanzania I think).

Overall, some of the solutions for payments and banking being implemented in some developing countries is quite different than what most people in the west are used to. M-Pesa is one of them, but in countries like India, online wallets are starting to gain traction too.

Most people in developing countries don't have credit cards, let alone being comfortable using them online. So a lot of people in India still use the 'Cash on Delivery' model, which isn't very much prevelant in the west, and other solutions like 'Netbanking' (in which the shopping site redirects you to your bank provider's site, you log in, and through the bank provider's site you do the payment, and then it redirects to the shopping site's payment confirmation page ; In other words, you haven't used a card, you've just paid directly through the bank) are also there.

The article talks about the Soloviev & Go catalogue how it wasn't taken into account: "Presumably on the basis of these studies, [Soloviev & Go] assigned it a tsunami intensity I=4, which is one of their highest values for Japan tsunamis. Yet, in the aftermath of the Fukushima accident, it has been argued repeatedly that the Jōgan tsunami had not been documented until 2001 [17], well after the design of the NPP"

Also, the 2007 journal paper that found insufficient protections at Fukushima: "The senior author of [46] was then a TEPCO scientist, while another two co-authors are two of the most senior tsunami engineers in Japan. We wonder how disappointed they must have been on 26 November 2010, when, in the symposium organized by JNES, they found out that TEPCO did not appear to have heeded their recommendations [46] in its re-assessment of Fukushima Dai-ichi"

Is it really that baffling to see critical opinion without constructive criticism as a reply to some other comment?

If my intention was to leave constructive criticism I would have done it as a comment to the post itself. Kudos to you for writing good constructive criticism. In this case, though - I'm agreeing with a parent comment and giving my general impression about design.

And listen, if this project was done without any funding I wouldn't have said a word - I understand that you can't expect great design from a side-project made during weekends or evenings. However, in case of blockbuilder.org there was a kickstarter campaign which collected $11,205.

Based on github stats [1] there were only two active developers and only one of them was active within last couple of month.

Based on the same github stats there should be around 6-7k lines of code. Do you think that is something that should take more than 2 months of work and cost $11k?

What I'm getting to is the following - author of the project decided to work on it and in its current state to me it looks like $0 were spent on it. Again, I repeat that it only looks like that to me.

Given all that and the fact that project is considered as "finished" (Kickstarter: "Estimated delivery: Oct 2015") - I'd say it is a fail. I don't see people using it in its current state, therefore it did result in any positive outcome for the backers.

Why VCs don’t invest in “good” companies
>Those are two absolutely different things. One stems from production, transportation, and financial improvements across the board, the other comes because fewer people want to buy anything.

That's true, but they are measured the same way: through the nominal value of goods and services. The people that the economists are worried about, consumers, only have the price of goods to guide them, they have no information as to whether the falling price is due to improvements in efficiency or lack of demand.

>It's not so much about consumers delaying spending. It's what happens further up the chain. If the holders of wealth that seed the economy figure out that it's better for them to hold on to their >assets rather than invest them, then people lose jobs. We need them to keep investing their money.

I'm not sure I've read this as being the main driver of the theory previously. To me, it doesn't really make sense since theories concerning deflation don't make any predictions concerning the return on investment. If deflation is uniform, then the return should stay the same since the cost of inputs should fall as well. If deflation isn't uniform, then you'd see changes in the allocation of resources as some industries make large profits due to falling input costs, while other industries might go bust due to their input costs staying the same even while their sell prices fall.

Personally, I think that that productivity growth is far more important than deflation and will compensate for any short term negative effects that deflation might or might not bring.

I think there are two major reasons why CNN might not be a good model. The first is that CNNs expect translation invariance, which is pretty common in images. But language sentences do not have this structure. Another reason is that in NLP outputs usually have varying length, this is why RNNs, LSTMs are so popular these days.

>Has there ever been an example of a succesful tax-less capitalist economy?

I think the GP means income tax since the conversation is about being a slave === being 100% income taxed. And yes, there had been an example of a successful income tax-less capitalist economy. The United States of America for most of the time pre 1913.
Awesome work!
If you're arguing for some radical libertarian theoretical economy with 0% taxes then you're not really arguing for anything that would normally be called capitalism. In a way you're being an anticapitalist yourself.

With exception of workers comp, the FMLA and SDI are negligible, as in they shouldn't exceed single percentages off a paycheck. In reality with W-2 such great charitable benevolent behavior on the employer's part is due to lower rate they typically pay an employee (vs a higher rate organizations would pay a contractor with a similar role) - it's understood that employee is trading off per-hour take-home pay and time flexibility in favor of paycheck stability.

We also have a precedent of wage negotiation for a part-time job in a service industry - an employer advertises a job opening at a given rate, interested parties are welcome to apply, disinterested parties are welcome to move along. (It would have to be a part-time 30-hour-a-week-max job to avoid the ACA penalty).

It has worked for retail, restaurant, manufacturing, logistics and some other industries, why would it be a show-stopper and game-changer for home cleaning industry?

It's not even a drastic change, where 100% of the workforce has to be entirely 1099 contractors or W-2 employees. As long as both options are provided and conversion at later stage is a possibility, it keeps everybody placated.
