Most of the world will live in poverty (just like today) and a increasingly smaller group of humans will live in extreme luxury.

While idea's like UBI would be nice, the point to implement them I believe is past... They should have been created decades ago. If we wait until 20% or more of the jobs are replaced by automation, it will be to late for most people... Poverty will be the future... Poverty is the future for most.

Is governmentally planned/allocated spending contrary to the wishes of the individuals really better? If someone gets more pleasure/utility from X instead of Z, why should we force them to consume Z instead of X? Where's the line? If Z becomes effectively a government mandate, would the commercial manufacture of Z become more or less efficient and competitive?

Would you rather get $100 cash, $100 Amex gift card, or a $100 Home Depot gift card as a gift? (Each of those can be used to buy something later in the list, but not the other way, or at least let's pretend that's the case.) In no case are you better off holding something later in the list.
The aesthetics of this project reminds me of the "Future Crew" game by NYC Resistor[1]. In that game there were multiple (maybe 4?) stations, all vintage looking interesting equipment. I remember a rotary phone, a piano, switcehs, a bnc plug board and some broadcast equipment. All the stations were manned by a participant, and they received orders which had to be carried out on one of the stations, but not necessarily on their one. Gameplay looked like some scifi where everyone is shouting things like: "Dial the president!" "Modulate the medial truster!" One of happiest memories in my life.

Sure. But libseccomp does use the same "only explicitly allowed" path that pledge() does. It also uses "pseudo" names for the syscalls, so there's one place to look up the list: https://github.com/seccomp/libseccomp/blob/master/include/se...

The aliases that pledge offers (like stdio) that sum up logical groups would be nice, but that's a minor difference to me.

Ia there a reason TO take painkillers (at work or not)?

If you are not seriously ill, like having cancer or a broken bone, why do you take painkillers?

Imo, by taking pain killers you shut of the bodys built in protection thats telling you either to eat, drink or rest.

Few people should require to do this.

If you require painkillers to get through the day (or year) you should consider your position and how youre treating your self and your body.

> If you are not seriously ill, like having cancer or a broken bone, why do you take painkillers?

Define seriously ill, I have a spinal condition, it's not going to kill me in the next ten minutes but it causes constant pain some days meaning I'm more functional with painkillers than without.

The sooner we figure out how to turn off pain the better, I know my spine is knackered I've seen the MRI's, I don't need a constant grinding reminder.

> If you require painkillers to get through the day (or year) you should consider your position and how youre treating your self and your body.

..or you have a debilitating condition that medicine can do nothing about and you need them to stay functional, I think unless you've experience chronic pain (or someone close to you has) you are not really aware of how insidious it is, unmanaged it will eat away at you.

EDIT: For the record I'll wager I'm considerably physically fitter than the average for my age, I cycle and swim a lot and workout every day, I also eat very cleanly but I can do those things because of the painkillers without them I'd be stuffed in terms of exercising.

Apply HN: Wanderlust – Travel recommendations based on your budget and interests
Wanderlust is a website that helps you find out where you could travel to based on how much you can spend and what you like to see. A new way to plan and book your trips. An answer to the question of ‘where should I go?’.

The majority of traditional online travel websites (e.g. Booking, SkyScanner) work under the assumption that you know where you’re going. But what if you don’t know this? We don’t always have a destination in mind, but what we typically do have is a general sense of how much we can spend, what we like to see, and when we’d like to travel. Taking these variables into account, Wanderlust provides you with a complete trip - including destination, flight, accommodation, and an overview of the best things to do and see while you’re there.

To be sure, it’s still a little rough around the edges, but here's a quick demo: https://vid.me/TnZL

To what extent is there a "U.S." apartment market?

Honest question.
This will keep going as long as people agree that survival of the fittest is a sound and fair argument to make the rules in society. Everyone is fending for themselves, and less and less people consider it to be a fair deal to contribute to society. So less join with it, and the one who do want to shield themselves from it. The result is rent seeking and an epidemic of tax dodging.

That's how the social net is slowing being deconstructed. I actually have a lot of sympathy for politicians who legitimately try to make people work together (not necessarily taking sides here). Seen how politicians are being systemically hated, I'm sure politics is actually a very tough job right now.
I read this article and said, "Yup, that sounds like a lot of startups I've worked with."

I should say with, and not for. I've been a freelancer for 20 years, and while I love to help my clients succeed, and I definitely work too many hours, I don't have someone standing over me, expecting that I'll work 60-hour weeks, be around for 7 p.m. meetings, or explicitly tell me that my needs are secondary to the company's needs.

Startup employees -- and hi-tech employees in general -- are expected to work long hours, and to put family and friends aside, all in the name of... well, what? Sometimes it's lots of money, but too often it's because this is what they're expected to do in so many companies.

It's true that tech companies are (and have always been) desperate for good talent, and people who are great can often get great salaries and benefits. But it's rare for a company to say, "Yeah, we'll pay you tons, give us access to our cafeteria, and offer on-site massages, and you don't have to be here more than 40 hours per week."

I'm OK with asking employees to pitch in before a deadline, or in an emergency. But that should mean a few days every few months, not a few months out of each year.

And those descriptions of "graduation" e-mails that Lyons mentions in the article just gave me the chills.

Something is wrong if these are the expectations at lots of high-tech companies, and I have to wonder if Lyons is right, that we're looking at some very well-paid people who have little or no power, and move to a new job every year or two not just to get more money, but to get a bit more control over their own schedules, or some better work-life balance.

Because then it's a 3-way conversation with nobody in the center.

How do you know people want this? Tinder exploded because "lightweight" dating/hookup filled a niche that wasn't served by any of the intense, profile based existing dating sites.

This moves in the direction of more intensity bc you aren't just swiping but, in some sense, agreeing to meet. This isn't necessarily a bad thing - and it may be good because it can absorb some of the Tinder backlash - but I think you need to understand the space and your niche and potential users incredibly deeply.

So, how will you get users?

Seems pretty obvious to me, why that failed - the linked specification describes how to represent a tree of pairs of byte strings. What do I do with that? That's not much more helpful than saying that I can encode my information as a sequence of zeros and ones.

It is redundant and vague. Why six ways to represent a byte string? Or even more if you count things like quoted strings and length prefixed quoted strings separately. It has the feel of just do whatever you want. As some kind of type information one can associate display hints with each byte string. What are valid display hints? Arbitrary byte strings, of course. »Many of the MIME types work here.«

Where would you even start to build a useful library around this specification? It is so general that it is useless.

Perhaps, the problem with conditions primarily resulting in pain is that everyone has different tolerances for it.

I take about half the painkillers that are the average for someone with my condition but I'm also on the good end of the scale in terms of symptoms (partially because I lost a lot of weight, force myself to exercise and took up pilates) and partially because I have a highish tolerance for pain (I broke my elbow in three places and went to work the next day since I didn't realise I had) but I don't make comments on what other people need to do to get through the day.

The principle drug I take does have a marked effect on my cognitive performance so I have to walk the line between enough to be functional all the time.

Are you saying the documentation is wrong? And not once but twice:

You can also use special names to select particular edge case format:

* best: Select best quality format represented by
single file with video and audio

And again:

> Since the end of April 2015 and version 2015.04.26 youtube-dl uses -f bestvideo+bestaudio/best as default format selection (see #5447, #5456). If ffmpeg or avconv are installed this results in downloading bestvideo and bestaudio separately and muxing them together into a single file giving the best overall quality available. Otherwise it falls back to best and results in downloading the best available quality served as a single file

If you degrade by client or query class then in the case of just one class of query or one class of client you would have an unfair distribution, because one client could consume many resources and others would be limited to whatever's available on the margins.

I would like to see an adaptive system that, when resources are scarce, pushes towards a more equitable distribution.

It's my responsibility to give people a response, no matter how unpopular they are. Just because I'm saying things people don't want to hear doesn't mean I'm wrong. People tend to ignore/downvote things when it's not in their best interest. I can't stand it, you shouldn't either. If you don't find my ideas appealing don't write stuff like this, don't downvote and also don't upvote. And if you don't have a problem with HN limiting my replies while you could say anything you want to me then you have a serious issue. You need a serious update to your value system if you're fine with people silenced for their ideas.

> Why would this be a good thing in an economy at full employment?

This is a strawman argument. Apart from (arguably) Switzerland, what other economy is at full employment?

1. Real wages have been decreasing year-over-year since the '50s. BI would not change that.

2. This is the least of the worries for the 19.9 million Americans who live in abject poverty, and the many more who have to choose between paying rent, food or transportation (=cannot even afford to find a liveable job.)
I think being able to "unpledge" would defeat the purpose of pledge. Instead, I think the better way would be to have your app run by a parent, and when you lose connectivity to your db server, you crash your app on purpose and whenever your app crashes, parent restarts it. Problem solved, I think.
