Hawking does believe that AI will be a danger to humanity long term. The short term problems caused by near future robots is a different subject.

Capitalism isn't inherently the problem. We could have capitalism and tax capital owners at a high rate, and distribute the wealth much more evenly. It's possible everyone could become capital owners and it would be normal to live off interest instead of work. Like owning the robot that replaces your job.

This has happened before, kinds sorta. Everyone mentions farming has been automated almost completely. But the farmers mostly owned their own farms, and didn't all become unemployed, and instead benefited from it. However many farm laborers were forced to move to the city.

No, then you need to get meta. There's a checklist for identifying "novel" information and reacting. By checklist I mean algorithm.

Sure, it can be tough to tease out the algorithm from the minds of current pilots. Luckily in aviation we already have training manuals. In other domains it'd be tougher to know when we're done extracting knowledge from humans.
I've always found it ironic that these types of posts are popular on a news board for a venture capital group, arguably the pinnacle of capitalism. I see no reason why robots couldn't kickstart new REITs: Robot Estate Investment Trusts, that are open to investment from the middle class and others. I see no reason why they would be "hoarded" by: "the big banks", the "1%", and other boogeyman simply because they can afford to buy one or more round units. I think that such talk betrays a very naive view of capitalism.
Please consider getting the tooth extracted instead. At the very least, research root canals and make an informed decision.

Lessons Learned from 30 Years of MINIX

Nothing beats crunching snow on an early morning or late evening hike. NOTHING.
That solves part of the problem. The problem with base images, are they are the root - I call them Adam and Eve images. They do not solve all of the supply chain problems.

Layered images such as Apache and Nginx still may be maintained by operations or even Middlware teams.

Each team is responsible for making sure they update their piece of the supply chain. If the operations team (or image supplier) doesn't, the "yum upgrade" (or apt-get) downstream (by the developer or middlware maintainer) will bloat the environment.

The problem is, it's a symptom, not the problem. Telling people to NOT do yum updates, just promotes security problems because people upstream aren't keeping up with updates.

All of that said, the ONLY sane way to do all of this is with Automation. Hence, the reason for ImageStreams [1], BuildConfigs, DeployConfigs, and Triggers inside of OpenShift.

When any piece of the spider web detects a change, all of the dependent layers kick off jobs to rebuild themselves. Also, having good tests is critical. Yeah, most people on the planet haven't thought through this. Yes, Docker images make your life more convenient, at the deploy stage, with the downside that you need to do a LOT more thinking (automation and testing) at build phase.

Like shipping containers, we pack them at the factory, but can move them around at will after that. Instead of having dock hands load the ship at the port (which took 45 days in 1906). The supply chain problems are the same either way, but at least Docker gives you a good format to solve them.

DROWN: Breaking TLS Using SSLv2
Thanks for mentioning this, I have never considered the mentioned alternative to xml/json for lack of needing to, but I did a quick search to understand a bit more and found this slideshare: http://www.slideshare.net/IgorAnishchenko/pb-vs-thrift-vs-av....

This seems to be much more interesting than I anticipated. But I am left wondering what's the 'market' share for each.
Your comment makes the assumption that capitalism is a binary.
Careful, it's not the base image size. It's the environment size. If you don't put enough in your base image, you will have bloat everywhere. If you put too much, it will cause slow start (caching takes a while).

It's a balancing act. It's not easy. But, if you use a package exactly twice in your environment, then putting it in the base image actually makes sense.

Think at scale, not about individual images.
The Better Code Book – Community Submissions for Better Code in .NET
I'm still waiting for someone to come up with an alternative to capitalism that isn't communism, or some dilute form of communism.

We have socialism - the erosion of capitalism to provide a reward for those that won't or can't work.

What's your "new possibility"? Without a proposal, your point is moot.
That's a bad advice.

Looking at Pharmacy Checker, Offshore, which I believe ships from India, seems to have it for $74/pill (in odd quantities that don't seem to evenly divide what would be needed). Still lots of money and you have to worry about customs arbitrarily deciding to cause trouble (my impression is that is rare but can happen).

It looks like round trip airfare to India is available for under $1000, so that seems like the least expensive option. Wow, so travel to India costs less than what they sell one pill for in the US, and you can get the full 12 week supply for less than the second pill (the least expensive version of the full supply would get you just over half a pill in the US).

Good luck, I hope something works out for you.
So instead of having actually structured information in defined fields, you're relying on a specific service's format. So presumably you then have to try to get all the services you use (e.g. Apache / NGinx / HAproxy / Varnish / (my|postgre)sql / redis / memcache etc) to format logs in the same way, and do it to stdout...

Among many other reasons why you shouldn't use it as your main OS. But not even the React Devs would suggest that you do, so I'm not sure what your point is. It's clearly still in the development stage and is almost certainly just going to be run in a VM for the time being anyway.
That is assuming that capitalism is the only way to get this kind of efficiency.

In fact, it's the only way we could both imagine and successfully implement, but that's it.

On the other hand, we now know the limits of it, the corruption it brings, and that's a certitude.

So an intelligent and educated reaction is not to say "if you want result you need a self corrupting system" but rather "we like this abundance, and we can see our way to get it needs to be improved. How can we keep a balance between those ?"
Justice system should try to settle matters first, be objective second, and deliver retribution third - in fall-thru fashion.

You mean increasing life expectancy with unparalleled standard of living? Why would anyone want to prevent/change that?
> Is that why you invest in a company?

Maybe, and maybe not, but remember that not all corporations are publicly traded on the stock market. Some organizations are incorporated under structures and tax rules like, say... the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a 501(c)(3) charity, or the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations, a 501(c)(5) labor union, or the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a 501(c)(6) business league, or Swift Boat Veterans For Truth, a 527 organization, or Universal Life Church, a 508(c)(1)(a) religious organization. All of these have engaged in free speech activities, often overtly political ones.

Some corporations are privately held and across the pond, the Crown itself is "a corporation sole that represents the legal embodiment of executive, legislative, and judicial governance" in the King or Queen of England (not relevant to US free speech so much but potentially interesting as a corporate structure).

Personally, I'd hope that a publicly traded for-profit corporation that I (partially) own would spend/invest its money wisely, to increase the value not only of my shares, but my interests in life in general. However, the value of my shares is one particularly compelling and immediate interest, and also much easier to measure results on than the others, and political spending may or may not be in my overall interest, so I agree that skepticism on such spending is warranted.

It's only when companies take security in IoT devices seriously are we likely to see any meaningful progress in the sector.
Security is an afterthought right now for companies who design products, but don't necessarily have the expertise in security to counter those who wish to hack their products. The reality is security today is as important part of the initial design in IoT products, as look and functions of the product is.
Also, though I love Alpine, it uses Musl instead of Glibc. Some giant amount of the supply chain uses Glibc. You could convert everything to Musl, but then you would probably have performance hits on all kinds of things, so you would be trading CPU for Disk. Also, this could take TONS of time and money to figure out what is missing in Musl (including syscall mapping (not even sure it exists in other c libraries), etc)

Nothing is free, nothing. Building a cool new C library (musl) is fun. Maintaining one for 10, 20, or 30 years (glibc) is work (and fun)...

If you have a robust criticism of Piketty, then I'd rather you present that. You're going out on quite a limb calling the greatest living physicist "niave" while he's parroting one of the most highly-regarded economists, and your support for that insult thus far is rather flimsy.
> You mean increasing life expectancy with unparalleled standard of living?

Nope, I don't mean that. Are these the only two things going on in the world? Is capitalism the sole driver for these two? Just trying to get a feel for why you would guess so horribly badly.

> Why would anyone want to prevent/change that?

What makes you think I have to defend myself against your straw man?

edit:

And you know what, the fact that I get shit for a snarky reply to something that doesn't warrant one, is extremely lame. Here's what Hawking said

> If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with technology driving ever-increasing inequality.

In the context of that, no, I obviously mean more than just peaches and unicorns with "current trends", to suggest otherwise is, given the level of literacy on this site, flat out not arguing in good faith. At least I stand behind for dealing with it as such, I don't play nice with sophistry.
>Would you publicize the tutorials and cookbooks to the public (via a blog or project email list) before you sold the cookbooks to the companies?

I did not (only did it a handful of times). Although it would be the smart thing to do. It would put you in an advantageous position to market the book to all interested parties.

>How many of these did you do?

About five in total. None of them were ultra-long and detailed cookbooks. They were short, but to the point. Less than a hundred pages.

>What was the level of effort for each of the cookbooks?

It was rather easy because cookbooks don't require a lot of explanation. They were just me showing people how to do things with whatever technology. If the cookbook was for an API I already had a formula. Start with authentication and work my way through the endpoints. Including code examples for every step in various programming languages (mostly Java, PHP, and Python). Super easy.

What did the company do with the cookbook? Put it up on their website?

They would either put it on their website or distribute it as a PDF. Though all these companies are now dead except one. And that last one did a complete rewrite of their stuff.

Overall, the whole thing was fun and easy money. I've been working with technical documentation since the 80s so it came kind of naturally. I stopped doing it because I wanted to code more. But I would not mind doing it again someday. I'm actually working on some books myself, but those are a scheduled for much later this year. :)

Best of luck!
There was a talk at an event I work for (that's the full disclosure done) on building security into the IoT. It was made by a Hardware Manager of the original iPhone, a patent holder for NEST and is now CEO at Electric Imp.
In short, he argued that security has to be layered into every stage of the design process. The current paradigm is to make something and try to retrofit security features into it.

The issue is one of process/collaboration/composition. Even at the largest of distros, package maintainers usually act with pseudo independence. They can change, QA, and push their packages basically at will. Images are collections of those pushes. Even with automation the aggregate nature of images makes them qualitatively different and---especially organizationally---provides a process challenge.

I would say that a "new possibility" would be acknowledging that a 100% capitalist society (whatever that would look like) is about as sensible as a 100% socialist society.

It would be very hard to implement a capitalism with even distribution.

By nature, this system leads to capital accumulation. Since no capital is infinite, accumulation in one place means removing it from somewhere else.

So you need mechanisms to always redistribute the capital to avoid this problem and balance the system.

But capitalists will battle these machanisms to gain efficiency, and you will be in a rate race between the redistribution measures and accumulation workaround.

Since creating new redisitribution mechanisms is way slower than implementing the workarounds, eventually the system won't be evenly distributed.

Hence the rat races between taxes, and taxe evasion.
Is this new? Since I would say it's already widely known as a ssl Downgrade attack.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downgrade_attack
Basically, it looks like this affects servers that still support SSLv2. From the mitigation notes:

> To protect against DROWN, server operators need to ensure that their private keys are not used anywhere with server software that allows SSLv2 connections.

Also, I like this snippet:

> Disabling SSLv2 can be complicated and depends on the specific server software.

I would even expect some out of the box management APIs to help upgrade the microservice with low to zero downtime, feature toggles, etc...

Banks that work properly would be the ideal form of capitalism, to me. In Canada at least, very little lending takes place to people who want to increase their capital doing useful things, unless you already have $10M+ in assets in order to get fancy AR-secured credit lines and other secured loans. The only way to get a loan is to tell the bank you want a house (capital gains but no value creation) or to go on vacation (consumption). In theory, you could create capital doing productive things, store it in the bank, and they lend it to others who can do useful things with it. I am thinking small business, as opposed to vacation consumption. I would be pretty "Liberal" or socialist about how I allocated money to small ventures. Almost anyone could get a small loan to start a venture, and then how that goes determines their lending credibility in the future. Again, I am sure this is where we started, but we are far from it now.
Capitalism can't be communism because one is a financial / economical system and the other is a political system. The two are related but not always in the same way. European countries, especially the Scandinavian ones are very Socialist and capitalist. China is an even 'weirder' example. There already are many different forms of capitalism as an economic system under different political systems.
