How Access to Real-Time Financial Information Is Helping Businesses
The cost of not delivering a product on time usually far exceeds whatever a company would pay a freelancer. As an entrepreneur this means price almost always takes a backseat to reliability. Showing that you can deliver amazing code on schedule with minimal oversight, usually through showing past projects and getting good referrals from previous clients, is the most important thing.

Once you've done that you have a lot more flexibility in pricing.

Keep in mind that price is also a subconscious determinant of quality. If your rate is 110 EUR per hour, a certain number of clients will assume that it is so for good reason.

Interesting. Although this point of view might be a bit simplified, there's another example of a weapon, which was both relatively cheap to make - and really hard to use unless the whole society was built around the skills required to use it.

Mongols! Light cavalry using composite bows was both unbelievably effective and hard to copy for everybody but steppe nomads. All Mongols were hunters, they practically lived with their bows on their horses. So the whole population could do warfare.

While back in the days, in both Eastern and Western Europe, contemporary warfare was rotating around heavy cavalry, and one can't have too many knights. Even if somebody managed to gather an army more or less comparable to Mongol hordes - heavier cavalry would just be meat for lighter riders making circles around them.

Besides, feudal lands never managed to be centralized enough to counter mongols. In medieval Rus' the need to centralize led to the rise of Moscow - and it took quite a while anyway.
>would the car manufacturers be able to offer lower-cost models that would be bought every 3/4 years.

It also doesn't make that much sense to begin with. Part of the cost of using the longbow is the years of training and feeding the longbowman, and the cost of that training could easily buy multiple crossbows. If it weren't much more effective than a crossbow on a per-soldier basis, they would not have seen much use.

>If you're using cars just in the city then charging is no issue but for long distance travel it is one.

Yeah, I'm also curious how this pans out. Generally, people traveling long distances on the Tesla SC network route say, "No big deal, I stop for 20 minutes to stretch, charge, and away I go."

But what does that scenario look like when there are millions of EVs on the road? Imagine it took 20 minutes to fill up with fuel? The lines would be horrendous. Travel during prime vacation time and they already are on some routes.

*If the system is sufficiently critical, it may be hard to update or migrate it. And if it's still safely working there's no real incentive to do so.

In the very short term, perhaps. But I'd argue that critical systems are the ones most in need of the ability to be frequently updated and migrated. What's going to happen when a serious security problem demands an immediate change, and you're not prepared for it? Or the system catches fire, or floods?

SPOF critical systems are why so many organisations end up in legacy software hell.

Spain arrests and charges Mexican Governor with corruption
If I remember correctly (and I'm still looking for a better source than this[1]), the Duke Of Wellington had requested a corps of longbowmen be made ready for use against the French in the Napoleonic wars, but was advised that no one with the skill needed to train them still existed (the training being the most difficult part of the technology). The last use of trained english longbowmen seemed to have been by some of the royalists during the English Civil War, and after the parliamentary victory practical knowledge of longbow archery as a military arm had been lost without anyone really noticing.

It's hard for me to imagine a pivotal art or technology being lost like that, but I'm willing to bet its not at all uncommon if we look across history. For another military technology example, the art of dogfighting was deemed to have been lost for a brief period between WWII and the air war over Vietnam, and had to be re-engineered.

Yeah, I did the same way. In the n-th iteration it's become quite the beast, and it's not static, but it does exactly what I want how I want it, and I would trade nothing I saw so far for it.
We can also call it hitler as it does a 'process genocide'. Or maybe we can use a proper name like 'killtogether' or 'killpg' for kill process group. The name should correlate to the function of the thing.
> Jekyll should work on Windows because Ruby works on Windows.

Jekyll is a bit of a nightmare on Windows at the moment, at least if any significant part of your workflow is based on cygwin. (I helped a colleague get it running a couple weeks ago.)

Cygwin ruby + gem install jekyll -> fail.

rbenv to build ruby from source under Cygwin, gem install jekyll -> fail.

The one solution I found that works is using Chocolatey [1] to install ruby and then gem install jekyll. Even so, I wasn't able to get pygments working for syntax highlighting, and the Chocolatey Ruby does not play nicely with cygwin terminal for interactive programs.

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan either and find him somewhat objectionable. Orlowski's the only one that used to turn off commenting on his articles which is half the fun of the reg, though he seems to do this less now. But every publication, in print or online, is going to have a writer who you just never get on with intellectually.

There's plenty of other good contributors such as Duncan Campbell [0] and Alastair Daabs [1] that more than make up for the Orlowski deficit.

No, that was IBM. As I recall, Apache Harmony[1] was already in existence by the time Google adopted it - they weren't the 'forkers'; they merely popularized it. IBM was Harmony's main benefactor - IBM and Sun were Java frenemies at the time. My favorite moment of the tiff was IBM's delightfully subversive naming of the "Eclipse" project.

>Google just managed to do what Microsoft failed at

Had I mentioned that before the Sun purchase, Oracle also supported[2] Apache Harmony? Sun was steadfastly refusing[3] to provide the TCK needed for Harmony to be officially certified as 'Java'

That said, I'll take Java 6.5 over Java ME any day. Sun was absolutely clueless on mobile, and ME was a very bad idea and a terrible platform to develop on.

You only need to restart to install kernel updates that you need. While I'd normally just install all updates, most kernel bugs that I recall seeing the past few years are local exploits. If you're running few/no external services, you might not need to upgrade. And often bugs are in little-used subsystems/protocols -- often those will be off-by-default, or turned off by a diligent administrators (never run code you don't need).

It's rare to see a kernel-bug that can't be worked around in some way other than patching.
Actually, some papers written about crossbows seriously doubt that the penetrating power was that much better -- if at all. The poundage certainly was, but it had to be -- crossbow arms are short and the arrow doesn't travel as long, thus less time is available to transfer energy.

And "large populace" makes it sound like they just handed out crossbows to peasant levies, instead of them being very highly paid mercenaries.
I mean, I can hand a bill or halberd to a peasant, too, but that didn't stop the Swiss from getting hired by most of Europe...

One of the challenges I have with attribution generally--and, to be clear, I try to be very careful with attribution on any CC, etc. photos that I use--is that the attribution is usually detached from the photo. (It may be stored in the metadata--or not.) So, even though I make a point of cutting & pasting the flickr links when I'm putting together a presentation, it's very easy for the attribution text and the photo to become separated on subsequent use.

There are potential ways that you could fix this from a technology perspective, e.g. have a process to create a new JPEG with the credit below the original photo. But anything like this is going to be a bit clunky and potentially ugly graphically.

> Most people buy a car every three years.

This is an absurd statement.
> the point OP was making

He makes no point.
First, this research paper is about a game theory analysis about a political situation that may have made the French and Scots leery of being vulnerable to usurpation by arming a large population. The material on pages 691-693 is all background material, not the actual research material of this paper.

I did read 691-693. I am not contradicting any of the information in it; merely saying that I think they are overstating the direct superiority of the longbow. Strategically and tactically, it's clear that arming a large number of archers and using them in the early battle is superior, and the cost and simplicity of the longbow makes that much easier; but it's not because a single longbow is better than a single crossbow. I think that the longbow was a superior weapon, in the sense that the armies that adopted the longbow strategy clearly beat those that relied on crossbows, but I think that the way that the paper couches its introduction makes it sound like, side by side, a longbow was a superior weapon to a crossbow.

I'm not talking about modern crossbows, I'm talking about reproduction medieval crossbows. I do medieval recreation as a hobby, I shoot longbow, I know people who shoot crossbow. The longbow is faster, though as I mention, I know people who can reload and shoot from the hip and get 6 accurate shots off in 30 seconds. And the crossbow is more accurate, gets better range, delivers more power, and is easier to shoot.

Now, I don't shoot a 160 pound warbow, I don't have the strength for it. If I did, I would get some more power and range out of it, at the expense of accuracy and speed, as I would fatigue much more quickly. With a crossbow, you can use both arms and brace against your hip to draw, so even without any stirrup or crank, you can shoot a much heavier crossbow than you could a longbow. That extra power means more penetrating power and a flatter quicker flight (or more range if you increase your angle), and the fact that your muscles are not straining to hold the bow drawn means you can aim more accurately.
