I didn't mean to imply that Kafka was suitable for such a system, though that's mostly because it doesn't support priority queues. You could work around this by using a fixed range of levels and one queue per priority level, though it would probably just complicate things.
If a Federated Internet (see dscr in alt thread) allows for some spam, that's OK by me. I think some spam is the price you pay for having a well trafficed protocol.
Spending 3000 words arguing against a strawman in favor of a very damaging economic phenomenon.

Graham's selfishness and greed is disgusting.

Contrast with Paul Krugman: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/01/opinion/privilege-patholog...
Walmart employees are not compelled to work for Walmart; the employment contract is agreed upon voluntarily by both parties. The employees know how much they will be paid and agree to accept the terms.

Walmart is operating within the legal employment framework set up by the government, including the welfare state and the minimum wage. That will not change by raising the minimum wage. Rather, Walmart will simply add automation and reduce its employment.

Minimum wage is arguably the worst idea when it comes to improving the lot of the poor. If someone cannot command more than the minimum wage when it comes to productivity, intelligence, etc, then raising that wage means that person will be unemployable. That is, their skills are not worth the minimum amount an employer is allowed to pay, so they will not be able to find a job. Ever. That person will be a permanent liability of the State.
yes - in order to say something that is true, I need to say something that is false. You'd be right to call me on it, and I'd have it no other way.
> he most you can do is take from people at one end and give to people at the other end

But he argues before that point that tax rates and tax receipts are very weakly correlated. This would seem to be a limiting factor governing how effectively a government can flatten inequality through wealth redistribution.
Declaring media bankruptcy
Sure, for games the tradeoffs may be different. For apps, though, we regularly see 1% GPU time, 99% CPU time. Even "GPU-accelerated" painting backends like Skia-GL can easily spend 90% of their time on the CPU--in the driver, issuing state changes, rasterizing fonts, building batches, creating display lists. It's not an exaggeration to say apps are desperate to find work that can be offloaded to the GPU.
PG is in a bubble and has a distorted view, but unlike a lot of rich people, he's a real producer. Y Combinator has made the world a better place in terms of new businesses, wealth created, people trained, etc.

Also PG and Sam Altman are very responsive to critics, they understand that they live in a bubble and that other people have a valid point of view. Compare that to the essays written by the people at Andressen Horowitz which vary from "let them eat cake" to the kind of rich people complaining that people criticizing them are ruining the economy for the rest of us as Paul Krugman has recently pointed out.
Yeah, this is the part of the essay where I really did a double-take. He actually writes: "Can you have a healthy society with great variation in wealth? What would it look like? Notice how novel it feels to think about that."

That is not novel at all. The connection between economic power and political power is a very old subject. Complaints about the influence of money in politics and hence about the influence of inequality in politics are probably only slightly younger than politics itself. I have been saying for years that one of the most important reasons for being critical of (excessive) economic inequality is that it destabilizes democracy, since the market is fundamentally one-dollar-one-vote rather than one-person-one-vote.
Exactly, no matter how much some people try to mystify everything, the "rich get richer, the poor become slaves" is something that history told us happened even before the democracy was introduced to the Ancient Greece, some 2600 years ago. It's nothing specific for the current times. The golden age and democracy we adore since then didn't start with the "more of that inequality" but with the total opposite:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seisachtheia

"the relief of burdens"

"The seisachtheia laws immediately cancelled all outstanding debts, retroactively emancipated all previously enslaved debtors, reinstated all confiscated serf property to the hektemoroi, and forbade the use of personal freedom as collateral in all future debts. The laws instituted a ceiling to maximum property size - regardless of the legality of its acquisition (i.e. by marriage), meant to prevent excessive accumulation of land by powerful families."
> However the example used seems trivial and the solution is worse than the problem:

That's more or less the problem when discussing how to work with complex, real world software and giving examples of how to do it: the examples end up being simple enough that the techniques aren't worthwhile in that case. Don't mistake that for the techniques not being worthwhile ever.

I have seen the same when code is presented showing examples of how to use an IoC Container. The response "but this overcomplicates the code" is true, but misses that it doesn't apply to the (far larger) codebase that IoC containers are aimed at.

> it's about as close as it gets to literally free bandwidth in our line of work.

Listen, I'm all about inventive ways to lighten the yoke of static media on the web today.

But, in two important ways, this is not "literally free bandwidth":

1) The weaker: Despite the tone of obviousness in this article, it acknowledges that the choice of which technology to use is not made for you: there are edge cases where other methodologies are indeed superior. So, far from being free, these sorts of solution do have a time cost.

2) The stronger: We live in a world where, on a great day, the user's realized downstream bandwidth is 20% their LAN connection; their upstream 5% or less.

Connecting to a next-door neighbor via a conventional web application served through a typical corporate ISP probably means pushing packets a thousand miles or more, only for them to come back into our community.

Complicating this issue: our name service and certificate distribution are implemented in a way that is reasonably called "incorrect."

Our ISPs have a "speak when spoken to mentality" about connectivity, and competition is rare.

A solution bragging "literally free bandwidth" needs to service this concern - let me transfer a piece of media to a next door neighbor utilizing the other 95% of my network interface upstream capacity. That I'll call free bandwidth.

PG you may want to rethink the idea of networks of cooperating companies work better than a single big company. Just finished reading Ashlee Vance's biography of Elon Musk.

Real revelation for this Michigan boy was that at both Tesla and SpaceX Musk had failures trying to use existing supplier networks. By doing a lot of manufacturing in house Musk not only realized cost and time savings but gained an agility and nimbleness that blew away his competitors. Granted Musk didn't need to manufacture his own raw materials. But in doing his own manufacturing he was able to gain a further competitive edge by making his products better. For example the Big 3's supplier networks add to their sloth and look-alike products.
Ah yes, the evil gubmint did it.

Well, you have fun with that.
My friend would like to point out that the Cowlitz tribe is missing!
fish displays one "suggestion" as you type, which can be a file, option, or history item. You can use tab to get a menu, similar to the demo.

Showing everything as you type sounds neat, but in practice it's jarring to have your screen fill up the second you press a key. fish operates on the UI principle of progressive disclosure: be helpful but not overwhelming. That's why it only shows one.

fish knows how to parse man pages to extract options, so fish can tab-complete options even for commands that don't have explicit completions. It's surprising that nobody else seems to have tried this.

Interesting. That reminds me of the fact that, after WWII, US domestic producers, to a far greater extent than today, satisfied the US domestic market for all kinds of products. (I think this was largely due to the literally bombed-out industrial base of some US competitors.)

And that amounted to a large number of jobs which are no longer available to US workers.

Of course he means command economy total war when he says "go to war".

There's a funny scene in some extra-long Churchill documentary, in the episode that covers Churchill out of power after WWI. Scenes of Churchhill building brick walls, chopping down trees, and pontificating about minor stuff. ("Winston Churchill, the Boring Years.", basically.) Churchill is talking to Bernard Baruch, the financier, who, going into 1929, says the stock market is overpriced and there is going to be trouble. Churchill is portrayed as very Churchillian about investing - "We must be bold, and press on with resolve", rather than getting out of the market. That doesn't work out well for him.

PG started off talking about the fragmentation in politics, and I wish he would have wrapped that back in at the end. It feels to me like the two party system in the US is dying now as the oligopolistic system of just a few big companies began dying in the 90s.

The two party political system is more unnatural than the few-big-companies system. Libertarians and Evangelicals agree on very little yet they've been voting for the same party for years. Proponents of extreme reform on the other side don't want to vote for a moderate candidate. A Trump vs Clinton election is going to leave too many people without a candidate and force the beginning of the end of the two party system.
Both scenarios are free bandwidth.
And a significant joy of those 'desert' years was the need for and rise of the hacker community which brought learners and tech fans together socially and educationally. That sharing of common experiences and cool hacks is gone now, replaced with near infinite code repositories that send a clear message to neophytes, "There be no dragons ahead, only well trod pavement".
It's depressing that the idea at the core of our prosperity is dismissed by some as an extreme view indistinguishable from parody. Thankfully, people like Friedman and Hayek have laid down a rock-solid intellectual defense of capitalism. We ignore their wisdom at our own peril.

Masters actually bought slaves. They weren't cheap. So they had to, you know, feed them and care for them somewhat. Now when you aren't needed at the 7/11 you can almost just go die in a fire: have you seen was homelessness is like in the US? I have.
My reflex, give management and teams a way to put a deadline on important code issues as soon as they are known. Management would need to support and enforce these deadlines in order for them to mean anything.

If there is significant mental baggage with the old system for dealing with code issues, throw it out and replace it from scratch (not literally, but aesthetically in the minds of everyone from managers to interns so that they may escape the frustration and lack of faith they had with the previous system).

What's interesting about this election is that so much of the anger, especially from lower class whites, is being channeled into the Republican party. It's not a cry for wealth distribution, it's a cry against immigrants supposedly taking our jobs. And that's a big failing by the Democrats to tap into that anger.

But I think this is going to be typical of elections going forward, red hot anger being directed at the system. It's not healthy for society and I don't see it ending up anywhere good.
Yes, I think you're right. But since we are at war, I guess it's worth pointing out the difference, to help elucidate why the current war is not generating social cohesion. It just rings a bit hollow to not acknowledge that we have been in a very serious war now for 14 years.
That's great. But those of us who don't agree feel as though our opinions are being squelched by those who are in control of the system (ironic, no?). Consider that before you enforce your policies and potentially alienate a large part of your community.
That's the convenient dodge.

The source of the problem whereby the trustees of publically owned companies both determine and benefit from high salaries is plainly obvious as a principal-agent problem.
I disagree because this list is meant to be intrinsic to evaluating your current job vs. some other semi-comparable job.

Conditions leading to a shields down moment for someone switching to job that might be preventable by management is pretty well contained by this list. It doesn't account for life goals or circumstances that drive you in a truly different career path.
"Economic Inequality is a Red Herring" might've been a better title.

He's probably right that economic inequality itself is not a huge problem. But he could be wrong. Maybe it should be illegal for any person to amass more than $1 billion or some reasonable limit. Individuals with massive fortunes might always threaten democracy.

The Koch Brothers and Sheldon Adelson are examples of how corrupting they can be. Zuckerberg could start buying elections the same way with his new $45 billion LLC. Michael Bloomberg bought himself high political office. Mitt Romney tried. Donald Trump is trying again.

Supposedly 200 families have funded 50% of the 2016 election. One solution is to close every possible loophole they use to exert their influence over politicians. Another solution is to cap wealth at some high number, limiting the potential damage.

Heck, the unprecedented wealth of Crassus was the proximate cause of the fall of the Roman Republic. Crassus used his massive fortune to finance Caesar's very expensive political career, including bribing politicians left and right.

Didn't Hitler also rely on the backing of a few wealthy industrialists in his rise to power?
Many this sure is wierd.

Lack of documentation has probably been my biggest gripe with Sails. The documentation on their website was broken for almost a year ("but it's on github! Go find it there"). They had a Getting Started "Sailscasts" series that was helpful, and then they released the beginning of the V2 videos (using a SPA w/ Angular), but only got three videos in.

Accounting for it doesn't really add anything. If you have that drive your shields were never really up so trying to prevent the "shields down" moment is simply not possible.

I must commend you - I have never seen the main detrimental effect of the minimum wage explained so succinctly. Not in Friedman, not in Hayek, not anywhere.
I think there is some validity to Graham's paranoia.

There is another way to characterize the trends that Paul Graham observes. Perhaps growing economic inequality is a natural consequence of capitalism itself, and the "defragmentation" (or greater economic socialization) of the economy brought about by World War II was only a temporary reprieve from the overall trend toward greater inequality.

This view is essentially Marx's original critique that, given enough time, capitalism will destroy itself. As wealth accumulates at the upper end of the income spectrum, it has a self-reinforcing and accelerating feedback effect: greater wealth purchases greater political and social influence, which enables even greater wealth production, often at the expense of the poor and the less wealthy. The system inevitably sows the seeds of its own destruction.

History has shown that massive inequalities lead to instability and revolution. As a self-admitted beneficiary and generator of said inequality, Graham is right to be worried about how he would do during such a period of instability.

The 'History' page of the Gorman [precision magnetic coil winding] Machine company is a fascinating read.
http://www.gormanmachine.com/history.htm

There used to be many thousands of such manufacturing-based small businesses in America. They tended to stay focused on their competency or branch out tentatively into related products, flexibly grow and shrink to meet demand, or sometimes get acquired. But I don't think many of them planned to become the next General Electric.
> few founders would go through that pain if there wasn't a chance to get rich

I don't understand why should economic system be based on heroism. I frankly don't think anyone should be required to work more than 40 hrs/week (or even less) unless they want to.

And I think basing economic system on these extremes is misguided. So it will take couple more years to invent, I don't know, Snapchat.. what is the big deal?
Interesting article, the insight of PG is much valuable but I find his attempt to depict a fragmentation model unconvincing. While this model captures the dynamics at play, it fails to explain them and to introduce an easier way to act on them while this is the point of a model. This sums up an extensive feeling about this article.

I'd like to react to three of my picks. First of all PG conveys with its fragmentation model that long careers in the same company are a thing of the past. I explain an opposite view and support that new companies will have people work longer for them (10 to 20 years) by hiring them much earlier, for much cheaper. This challenges the dynamics presented by PG.

http://read.reddy.today/read/7/hire-high-school-graduates-in...

The second thing is that I found intriguing that PG write "Your prestige was the prestige of the institution you belonged to" talking about college graduates, as if it was a thing of the past and thus presenting himself as a hacker of this system while YC overly represents Stanford alumnis. But this is a paradox that I found with YC in general. They position themselves as a hacker of the system while they really are a cornerstone of this system in many regards.

Therefore - third thing - it wasn't a surprise for me to find in the last paragraph that PG envisages centralization as a better alternative and with a certain nostalgy thinks that the effects of this "defragmentation" need to be contained. Overall, PG thinks like a wealthy man who made his fortune in the late 90s and who has the graduate syndrom - about which I will write momentarily. His insight is certainly valuable but his proposition isn't disruptive.
It's particularly disturbing when his wealth makes him influential.

He has the material means to not need corn-pone opinions but instead holds to them and encourages them in his followers.
"I am a manufacturer of income inequality."

Bullshit.

He quotes Rockefeller in 1989: "The day of combination is here to stay."

The amusing thing is that he writes this just as the era of fragmentation in the US is coming to a close. We have one winner in search - Google. We have one winner in social - Facebook. We're down to a few retail Internet providers, a few big banks, a few big airlines, a few telecom companies, and a few commercial real estate owners per city. There would be more concentration in those sectors without regulatory pushback.
It's certainly true that SV's days as a big tech hardware manufacturer are past.

I am not at all certain, but I have to wonder if something magically keeps SV software innovators glued to SV. This is something I've never understood. But there must be SOME reason why software innovation/work didn't completely disperse from SV ten years ago.
