Well, the iPod came out in 2001, and was already a huge phenomenon when the iTunes Music Store launched in (I believe) 2005.

So you can't give all the credit for why the iPod succeeded to something that didn't exist for those crucial first 4 years.
I believe the author's hypothesis is probably correct. It seems the only way to avoid the "well my case is different; violence is justified in this situation because..."-bias is to instill or promote a common moral that "violence is not okay – ever". It's the only way you can be sure that you're not falling into the same biases that our "enemies" have fallen into.

The more I learn about cognitive biases, the more I think they're probably the cause of almost all interpersonal conflict in modern society (unfortunately, awareness of this fact doesn't make you immune to the phenomenon).

Talking about perl, how does CPAN etc work with perl6, are those modules mostly upgraded? or is it similar to the python2 vs python3 case?
I have seen rather extensive use of English even for conversation among Chinese people with a certain level of education.

My favourite illustration of the role of English is a conference I attended in Copenhagen a few years ago. I was the only person present who was not a native Danish speaker; the entire conference was held in English.
>>> First by moving away from the incredibly boring blog format.

There is nothing wrong with the blog format per se. The problem is, as you correctly identified, crappy articles.

What your examples have in common is that they provide value to the user. That's the key no matter what's the medium you are using to do so. There's nothing wrong with the blog format that prevents you from providing value.
French Press/Cafetière. Just buy one in whatever size you consume.
Could be that it helped that Apple had a shoe in with media production.

I recall coming across musician magazines at a friends place, and it was all about Apple computers and how they could be used with midi and synthesizers.

Similarly a local newspaper, that was a heavy Windows user, had a old grayscale Mac hooked up to a SCSI scanner in their graphics office.

And in recent years the national broadcaster announced that they would be standardizing their production line on Apple hardware and software. And this was after Xserve was discontinued.

Apple was a household name for the labels, as such they were likely more comfortable to come to an agreement with Jobs than anyone else.
To me, these sort of formulas should just be a jumping off point for how to create a process that works for your business.

For instance, I'm content marketing guy for an electronics manufacturing company. Target demo for our blog is supply chain & purchasing people, PCB designers and Electrical Engineers, etc. Every time we've gotten a post on reddit or wherever (3 or 4 times in the last year, can't remember), the traffic increases dramatically, but the quality of leads generated by said traffic decreases significantly. Whether or not you even want to get featured on sites with huge traffic is an open question.

I think people tend to overestimate the quality of their content as well. Creating content is easy, creating really good content isn't, especially in more niche fields. "You can also look up the average temperature of each day. Create a chart with temperature on the x-axis and ice cream cone sales on the y-axis, and you’ve got excellent, data driven content." The last word I would use to describe a post like that is excellent.

"In the current era of publishing, social networks are surpassing Google search as the primary way people find content." is a pretty deceptive quote, if you ask me. I'm sure that holds true for sites like BuzzFeed or whatever, but organic search absolutely dominates my traffic. Bypass capacitor placement or PCOLA/SOQ aren't exactly hot topics on social. Long tail keywords [1] are your friend, and your blog is a great way to take advantage of them.

My company has seen the most success in combining inbound marketing and outbound sales. Use the site/social/email/white papers/podcasts/etc. as a barometer of engagement, and once the user has completed X set of tasks, flag them for review by sales for direct outreach.
Absolutely. There's a huge trend of websites redesigning and shuffling around just for the sake of doing it, and in the rare cases where you can still access older interfaces (I'm thinking of GMail here) it's totally arguable that the old ones are better. If you have a service that works well, staying the same is nothing to be ashamed of.

I haven't been putting any of my photography online for a couple of years now (aside from sharing to friends on Facebook), but the thought had cross my mind recently. It's a tossup between hosting them on my own site or going somewhere else where it can be "social" and more importantly, more broadly visible.
From Google Ventures: How to Hire the Best Designer for Your Team
I'm confused. Your tone suggests you're disagreeing with me, but the words mean the opposite.

Do you think I said that "only criticism of Go is argued against"? Because I didn't.
I started as a Perl dev, and I must say that some of the principles I learned there that I still feel are underutilized in other languages even though the syntax could support them.

I think the very nature of Perl meant that I had to learn additional tricks to make the code make more sense when I returned 6 months later...tricks that I wish other languages embraced. Having your code not be obscure is the minimum, not the maximum you should be shooting for.

Also - I'd still write short scripts (basically glorified one-liners) in Perl vs Python. JS is getting up there, but still isn't as expressive as Perl.

Edit: And I say this with full respect for other languages, particularly Python that has done a lot for many areas of development
Sure you would have to tax everyone, but once you discount out the actual base income (pay $10,000 or less in tax, get $10,000 in base income) then most people would be ahead.
You're supposed to brew the leaves in the pot. That's why traditional teapots have built-in straining holes (or you can use an alternate vessel like a Gaiwan). Most people rarely get the temperature right anyway so proper extraction isn't usually a consideration.

it's not about "government", it's about "consensus of the poor people"
It's the latter, except that you can 'use Inline::Perl5;' in perl6 to get at perl5 code and 'use Inline::Perl6;' in perl5 to get at perl6 code. I don't think we're likely to see modules attempt to provide the same interface to both, but then again, given the above I don't think we need to :)

What is the opposing hypothesis here? That violence happens in a morally neutral setting? How would you define morally neutral? Could you make a claim, for example, that a bank robber is motivated by morality (the bank robber believes that robbing the bank is the morally correct thing to do - to redistribute wealth to himself?) Under what circumstances would that NOT be the case? Would the bank robber have to say, "well I know this is wrong, but..." (and how would we characterize that "but..." as not just another dimension of morality)?
> it seems like reverting from "Web Applications" back to "Web Sites"

I want to push back against this idea that "Web Applications" represent uniform forward momentum for the web, while "Web Sites" are somehow archaic. This seems to be a fairly common perception, but it strikes me as a false dichotomy.

Both are distinct and useful things. Static site generation isn't a good solution for interactive applications – conversely, React is a poor choice for building low-interactivity web pages.

I would use this for my personal videos. I've had videos taken down from Facebook before because, even though I was just sharing it with friends, I used a track that was protected by copyright.

Being able to construct a track with the right feel without worrying about copyright would be amazing for a simple video editor or on something like Instagram.
The problem here is the IRS wants its $1 million in cash, but the only way you can turn those shares into cash is to sell them to someone.

If there's no one willing to buy at least $1 million from you, then you can't pay the IRS.

Yeah that could work too. Though personally I don't like deleting people.

No, I have not. But I helped creating a lot of not-for-profit events and setting up some hacker spaces out of rotten spaces. 20k for a kitchen? Seriously? I call that bullshit. Every chef who would dare to ask for that would have gotten the finger. You can create a functional kitchen for 0.5 - everything above that is luxury, which I'd love to have (I'm a passionate amateur chef) - but I'd never ever would invest 20k into that upfront.

This is not really a problem anymore. You type Chinese these days by typing it phonetically (in Pinyin using Roman letters, of course) and the computer figures out what characters you intend, with some help from the typist. It's not the most elegant thing in the world, but it works fine.
Bingo - one of the great insights I had while struggling to become a 'writer' - and after my mentor / editor continually slashed up my writings. George Orwell, in "Politics and the English Language" even mentions this briefly.

What is above all needed is to let the meaning choose the word, and not the other way around. In prose, the worst thing one can do with words is surrender to them. When you think of a concrete object, you think wordlessly, and then, if you want to describe the thing you have been visualising you probably hunt about until you find the exact words that seem to fit it. When you think of something abstract you are more inclined to use words from the start, and unless you make a conscious effort to prevent it, the existing dialect will come rushing in and do the job for you, at the expense of blurring or even changing your meaning. Probably it is better to put off using words as long as possible and get one's meaning as clear as one can through pictures and sensations. Afterward one can choose — not simply accept — the phrases that will best cover the meaning, and then switch round and decide what impressions one's words are likely to make on another person. [1]

Yes. Putting in other words - caching (well, some sort).
You are right. I posted my initial reaction, but I realize now that it doesn't particularly matter here.
It seems disingenuous to imply that moving to Perl 6 from Perl 5 is akin to switching to Ruby or Python (much less "touching every single line"). Perl 6 supports Perl 5 syntax with Inline::Perl5. So, in theory, one could move Perl 5 code directly into a Perl 6 project without changing much at all.

Edited: an earlier version of this comment that referred to an outdated FAQ (mentioning a perl 5 to 6 translator).
Great question. We find that most effective approach (whether you're a coder or not) is to interact with samples of the data directly to specify your transformations, so our approach is similar to Stanford's data wrangler (http://vis.stanford.edu/wrangler/). Once the transformations are specified, Etleap compiles them into code an continuously applies them to the data at scale.
> your business plan must make sense to the investors.

Would locking in dividends in the business plan allow the investors to become "directly involved" and make investment in a "going concern but not a unicorn" a rational choice for an investor?
I wouldn't be surprised, actually. I suppose the left versus right descriptions of politics are somewhat dependent on context.

On the other hand, historically communist countries currently span a range of left/right cultural tendencies, from the Baltics to Russia, to Azerbaijan, to Georgia, etc, etc...
Perl6 and Perl5 are two completely different languages, they have about as much in common as Python and Ruby.
My purpose is mainly learning for now and I'm not under time pressure.

This sounds really great, along with everyone's advice about learning C++11 and C++14 when I get there. Although C++ having a lot of language features (like destructors built it) is appealing. HN definitely helped me figure out what to do.

I've really liked what the C book has taught me so far, because nothing is hidden, especially the part about building an object oriented programming language and the side projects of communicating over ports.

Before that, I academically knew that a method is just a function with the object passed/bound as a "hidden" first parameter, with a keyword to make referencing it easier but building it solidified it.
This really just reminds me how much I hate Dickens' writing style. He adds unnecessary lists in the middle of sentences which distracts the reader, and adds little unrelated remarks that distracts from the point of an individual sentence.

As part of my humanities requirement I took a "modern english novels" class in college. Little did I know that literature departments have an erroneous definition of modern.
In my case, I find the Moose ecosystem much preferable to almost any other OO system I've used. Better multidispatch would put Moose over the top.

The last time I looked at Python 3, Perl still had much better Unicode support. In particular, grapheme support in regexes, built-in casefolding, and easy normalization made a 100+ country project much easier.

The stability of the language, core libraries, and CPAN modules across major releases really helps with maintenance. Python's 2/3 break was a bummer for a lot of people for a long time that I'm glad to have (mostly) avoided.
Why is Iran included? There are no cases of terrorism in US or Europe perpetrated by Iranians.

I basically agree with DanielBMarkham's comment below, but I have nonetheless been thinking about trying to do something like this for awhile now. I've been struck by how many historians my age got interested in history in part because of the Civilization game franchise. When I was a kid I became obsessed with setting up Civ II games to run over night with every civ played by the AI, then seeing which one ended up conquering the New World. At some level, this surely influenced my decision to study the Columbian Exchange in grad school, which is what I work on now. So even if it doesn't yield any usable empirical data, I think it would be an amazing teaching tool. And who knows, maybe in 10 years, some hyper-advanced version of an historical simulation game might end up proving useful in answering certain highly specific historical question (i.e., why did Spanish galleons suffer a lower rate of shipwreck than Portuguese ones, or the like).

At any rate, if anyone knows about projects along these lines, I'd be very interested to hear about them. I think the trouble would be 1) convincing funding agencies that it's not a fool's errand and 2) arranging for an effective collaboration between historians and computer scientists/game designers/whoever else would have relevant expertise. But it does strike me as something which could be fascinating.
People learned how to retain uncompromising authoritarian control without getting murdered dead. These are indeed interesting times.
This assumes that alternative systems (eg ranking people by SAT scores) is meritocratic, and not subject to structural biases. I like standardized testing myself, but that's because I perform well in those situations. I'm not so sure it's necessarily a good way to measure merit; I perform less well in more open-ended contexts, for example.
I have to laugh when I read your post because you use "redistribute wealth" to refer to bank robbery. I have to imagine you have likely referred to taxation as "theft" at least once.
Have you read the Pickwick Papers? It wouldn't surprise me if Dickens did speak that stuffily.
> But if any of its claims are true, it's that its type system is at least a little novel.

Are you saying it's novel because it picked the worst features of past type systems? ;-)

Technically, it is indeed novel, but it's novel because making these choices was pretty dumb in the first place so nobody made them...
Totally agree. You don't even need to invest in building engineered "tools." You can simply build guides, wikis, etc. that are "content tools."

In fact, building evergreen resources like that can be incredibly powerful because it doesn't necessarily have a date stamp on it, and can build quite a lot of backlinks as a definitive resource for something.

Case in point, Google for "beginners guide to SEO" and see how high Moz ranks. Rand and the Moz team get content marketing, and SEO-related terms are some of the hardest out there to rank for. Now go look at how they organize/structure that content and what they are actually writing about. It is largely evergreen.

Yahoo Core Business valuation is at this point low enough that any one of the Unicorns, e.g. Uber, Airbnb,... could easily afford it. Tumblr could have raised more money to become a bigger Unicorn and could have acquired Yahoo. Absurdity is reality.
The $15 PINE64 Just Launched on Kickstarter, and It’s Already Funded
The fact that some races/ethnicities perform worse on SAT or other explicitly race-neutral metrics does not mean they are not meritocratic. It just means those groups have lower average merit.

Similarly, the fact that any individual component of a predictor has little predictive power is a truly terrible critique. Similarly, no individual pixel is particularly predictive of the content of an image. Therefore image recognition is impossible!
I guess my question is why would insurance care? If the bone in your jaw weakens and causes severe problems, it'll likely be your medical insurance that covers it.

I can't see a dental insurance giving a crap.

This is US/Canada specific of course. Any country that has single payer dental/medical coverage would care.
We have had this problem, even with commercially-purchased royalty-free music. The idea of getting generated music that will never trip "Content ID" is nice, since having our customers' tracks pulled is an un-solvable problem for our team and it's really painful from a support perspective.

Plus, the idea that I've paid for legit copyright use and I still have to deal with takedown BS is doubly frustrating.

"Most" is an overstatement. The numbers I've seen suggest that ~25% of 25-34 year olds don't have cable although the number is rising.

I was hoping Apple would be able to pull it off because I certainly don't get my money's worth out of my cable TV subscription. Unfortunately, I can get nothing over the air so it's more or less all or nothing and I haven't quite gotten myself to the point where I cut live TV off 100%.
> It seems the only way to avoid the "well my case is different; violence is justified in this situation because..."-bias is to instill or promote a common moral that "violence is not okay – ever". It's the only way you can be sure that you're not falling into the same biases that our "enemies" have fallen into.

I agree. I love how this point is made by O'Brien in Orwell's 1984. On the surface, the book is pretty morally clear; but if you look deeper, it's full of moral ambiguities like that (another example is that Winston is himself a party member). Just like in life.
