About 10 years ago myself and a few co-workers (from Canada) travelled to Wilmington, Delaware on business. We check in to a hotel in downtown Wilmington and inquired as to the nearest restaurant. We were given some pointers, told it wasn't too far, and decided to walk. It was after business hours and the streets were pretty deserted, no cars or pedestrians. 10 minutes later a police cruiser pulls up besides us and the policemen inside inquire to what we're up to and then inform us this isn't a safe place to be walking around and tell us to head back to our hotel. After that they pulled up in front of some random house and one policeman was taking cover behind the cruiser while another was knocking on the door. Both of them had their hands on their guns as far as I recall.

Anyhow, we ended up eating in the hotel...

Walking in the USA. :)

That said there are cities or at least parts of cities in the US that are no problem. I've walked around San Francisco, New York City, Seattle amongst others and always felt perfectly safe. I think one big factor is public transport. If you have public transport you have people walking; at least to it and back.
Some engineers don't want to use ruby, in some cases seeing it as "not a real programming language" (whatever that means)

I'm going to disagree here too. I've never been much of an alcohol drinker. I've probably had six standard drinks in the past year.

The whole point is that walking is seen as highly unusual. We understand that the reason is poor city planning. We don't need to empathize with the cop. It's just ridiculous it's gotten to this point.
I feel that blogging purely for money is the wrong approach to life. The internet was much more interesting when people had websites because they were interested in things, not because they were trying to leverage social media or whatever.
IANAL but IIRC if a person accesses a computer in violation of a terms of use agreement, then the government can prosecute them for unauthorized access under CFAA. The government. Not OkCupid. Prosecute, not sue. OkCupid has a statement in its terms of use that this is for personal use only. Accessing it for the purpose of sharing data as an academic study seems to violate those terms of use, which would mean access was illegal under CFAA.
It actually did go down 50% from $15ish to $6ish and recovered. Early adopters trying to get rich = all early stage investing so what's your point?

Although I also like s-expressions, I'm not sure that this example is so persuasive; a lot of the visual complexity of the (awful) second example comes from having to go through so many hoops of escaping. (After writing the argument below, it occurs to me that I may be attacking a strawman, in the sense that you weren't claiming that `find-cmd`'s is the only readable way to write code, just that it is a readable way.)

The following is a thought experiment; I know that it's illegal shell syntax. If we just replace `\\(\\)` by `()` and remove spaces, then we get:

find_noesc '/home/phil/'
(( -name '.svn' -or -name '.git' -or -name '.CVS') -prune
-or -true)
((( -name '*.pl' -or -name '*.pm' -or -name '*.t' )
-or -mtime '+1')
-and ( -fstype 'nfs' -or -fstype 'ufs'))

(By the way, isn't there a missing `-and` before `-prune` there? Also, couldn't we convert the `-or -true` to an `-or` with the second clause, as the `find-cmd` example does? I'm no `find` aficionado.) If we imagine a more usual in- and pre-fix calling convention, and that this removes the need for the quotes, and then if we drop the home directory (which isn't specified in the `find-cmd` call either), then we get something like:

find_infix
((name='.svn' || name='.git' || name='.CVS')
&& prune)
|| (((name='*.pl' || name='*.pm' || name='*.t')
|| mtime='+1')
&& (fstype='nfs' || fstype='ufs'))

Perl-style junctions (http://doc.perl6.org/type/Junction) could make it look even better:

find_infix
(name='.svn'|'.git'|'.CVS' && prune)
|| ((name='*.pl'|'*.pm'|'*.t' || mtime='+1') && fstype='nfs'|'ufs')

At this stage, I think that it's fair to call it a matter of opinion which style looks better.

Who is GCHQ's “barneyrooster”?
His webpage says he's a student in linguistics. He appears to have no psychology credentials. The article does a really poor job of pointing this out and just refers to him as a graduate student.

This appears to have been done through OpenPsych which is a project he founded. I'd be willing to bet that there was zero oversight and no ethics committee for this "study".
There are some genuinely valid points sprinkled throughout the article. I'll admit the intensity of the writing style is a bit of a put off. But - after getting a bit deeper into the content, I can sense the emotional aspects have built up for some time. When opening up like this, akin to the Jerry Maguire film portrayal, I feel the author deserves some room to work through these things.

The more I read through it, the more I could relate from an 'indie musician' standpoint with all the services, experts, and opportunities to "grow" in the business. This passage particularly struck a nerve:

>There is an entire industry waiting to take advantage of your insecurities when you want to be a better blogger, and in reality all they are doing is shoving tips down your throat about how to make their jobs easier, how to put more money in their pockets by building an army of cookie-cutter bloggers who will keep paying for conference tickets and ‘exclusive’ insider info.

There's so many different avenues to play on musician's insecurities as well - from "Pay to Play" live show things, to forking over $$$ for a "Premium" account on something like ReverbNation, paying for listens/follows/whatever to look more appealing, or participating along with hundreds of others making remixes for other artists on something like Blend.io where all that work is being given over for FREE in the distant, remote chance to be the winner and get exposure or $XXX in a software prize.

In some ways, the article is great at pointing out "If you want to make money, get a real job!" because that applies to a lot of 'cottage industry' or hobby type pursuits. That's just being pragmatic. But, as noted, there's a whole circular industry in the Mommy Blogging realm that is tempting, corrupting, and at the end of it all, pretty much a sham.

Quite a brave piece of writing for a lot of reasons, and I hope the message resonates with a lot of people who could use a dose of "marketing gut check" when it comes to the Mommy market. It's a big industry, sure. Does it need to be playing dirty with these kinds of tactics? I don't really think so, but in some circles, that's just how business gets done, you know, that whole "payola" thing, which I don't think ever really went away - it just evolved with the times.
>Capitalism is the exploitation of man by man. Under communism, it's the other way around.

To me the other way around sounds like the exact same thing with communism substituted in place of capitalism.

"And cities may look drastically different. Sidewalks could go away, as pedestrians and cars share the roads."

If you do that, automated cars will move slower than pedestrians inside city centers (if they will move at all, that is. Not all pedestrians will move in the same direction as the car)

Even with separate lanes for pedestrians ans cars, I think we will need rules for how pedestrians interface with automated cars.

Also, where will the bicyclists go? Mix with the pedestrians, too? Evicted from city centers?

Ethereum still exists?
Yup. I think things have to get bad for non-poor whites before there are any changes. You can see this happening right now with the opiate pandemic. When that negativity outweighs the perceived positivity of our de facto segregationist system to white people, a system mainly enforced by police, we might see changes.

For now, I think a good start toward this goal is to start seeing people--all people--as human. That's not just something the police have to do, but something I have to do vis a vis the police, and everyday people have to do vis a vis both police, convicts, and "criminals". I'm personally willing to let go of my hate for the police and the justice system in this country if and when we start treating all people like humans. That means we don't use the threat and actuality of rape, torture, and murder in jail as a punishment when the actual punishment is going to jail. To me, it means police and government officials are held not only accountable, but to a higher standard than normal citizens (worse penalties and certainly no immunity from liability). It also means not criminalizing everyday activities.

Until then, the only thing we can do is speak up, bring awareness, and hope the police don't target us. And probably one of the most important things, teaching our children the truth about police, not the fairy tale of "serve and protect."
The exact details differ, of course, by where it is incorporated (and also where it is doing business, as there are requirements for foreign corporations doing business in various jurisdictions), but generally similar kinds of application, registration, disclosure, management/agent desgination, etc., requirements exist in most jurisdictions.

What were the things we liked? It was small, contained NuGet information, and could be edited by hand. Damian does not want to lose any of those benefits, and that is why they are working in several steps to complete this migration. Additionally, the team is building tooling at the command line so that you don’t have to work with the project file directly. Consider a possible npm-like command like “dotnet install json.net –save” to add a NuGet package to your project. There will be first class commands like this available.

The new MSBuild will not have a complete list of every file, so that should reduce the size of the build file. It will still be XML, but the team is committed to making that experience better for all .NET projects. This will be an enhanced MSBuild that has all of the best parts of project.json"

I shouldn't have spoken in absolute terms, "primarily IO-bound" would have been a better choice of words.

That said, in my experience this has been the case when it comes to handling HTTP requests.
it's hyperbole, not science. fair enough, though.
I'm curious, for anyone that has experience with .NET on Linux, for new stuff that you're writing, is it better to go with this or with Mono? How about if you wanted to give it a GUI interface?
Those systems are designed for small values. Typically in the order of few bytes to KB.
Assuming you mean "foreign function interface", then yes, P/Invoke is supported on .NET Core just as it is in the .NET Framework (the Windows component). We use it extensively in the core libraries to access platform functionality.

(I work on the core libraries for .NET)
Yeah, I was also very happy with ClipX while I was using Windows. Since switching the main OS to Linux a couple of years ago I've tried many other clipboard managers and found that CopyQ is the best (for me): https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ

All languages add a bit of code to a binary to make the code you write runnable. Rust [1] and C add almost none, language like Swift and Go have to add their GC support code even if it's in the same binary, and jit+scripting languages generally come with an external runtime.

The point DHH is trying to make is not that 'Ruby is fast', but that 'Ruby is fast enough' for what people generally need. If you're building some whatsapp-esque messaging platform, then yeah: ruby is not fast enough; but for a majority of the uses that Ruby is used for (building web applications) it is indeed fast enough to build enterprise-level applications.

Median/below median wages are in decline in the US, period. Healthcare,...

It's completely nonsensical to adjust wages for the cost of healthcare when healthcare is primarily paid by non-wage benefits. It's also nonsensical to ignore total comp and focus on wages, unless of course you are cherrypicking.

Matstroller has effectively addressed your other issues, so I feel no need to.

Note also that Branko Milanovic - the source of your graph - explicitly says that global income inequality is decreasing in his book. From a book review:

"Milanovic, like Bourguignon, stresses one encouraging fact. While inequality is rising within most countries, notably the high-income ones, global inequality of incomes, though huge, has been falling, particularly since 2000."

>they could've been investing in consumer storage

Which has also been a razor-thin margin commodity business. Fujifilm does provide some insights into how Kodak could have moved forward but they struggled too and were a smaller company.

The high-end camera makers have done OK in digital photography (although there's been churn in that space as well) but Kodak had long ceded that market to the Japanese by the time digital photography was much more than a glimmer.

The print consumables market was also pretty good for a while but that ended up being relatively ephemeral.

Even with the advantage of 20-20 hindsight, Kodak was in a tough position to directly leverage either their existing tech or their channels.
I'm surprised that they haven't been doing that already. They probably won't be interested in the dumb stuff you did when you were younger. I'm betting they'll be looking for posts expressing anti-government sentiments or where your friends/family are from.
> I guess what I'm saying is that Uber and the DAO both operate in a legal grey zone-

What is required to be a corporation is not really a legal gray zone. The DAO doesn't operate in a legal gray zone as to that characterization, its just flat inaccurate.

Insofar as the DAO is a mechanism for constructing contracts between actual legal persons (either natural persons or corporations), it may operate in a poorly-tested area as to whether valid contracts are formed, how those contracts are interpreted and what law they are governed by, and whether and to what extent they are enforceable, true.

I take a bit of a No True Scotsman position on this. In general, web applications don't need to be CPU-bound: the amount of computation they need to do has a small cost compared to that of the IO they need to do. But not all web applications only do the computation they need to do - some do a lot of unnecessary computation.

For example, there's a painfully slow web application at my company that puts data on a page by doing a straightforward select from a database, and then running lots of nested loops over the data to render the page. It's definitely CPU-bound. If it was written to use a more powerful query, or to use more sophisticated algorithms, it would be a lot faster, and would probably be IO-bound. But it isn't.
This seems totally impractical to me.

I'd say rustdoc is pretty rough. It's very hard to navigate the rust stdlib vs, say, Go, and when you do find what you want, it's often specified in some very cryptic manner that seems to require a PL PhD.

It is a really big barrier to adoption because it's very hard to find out what functionality is or is not offered. Here's an example: I want to iterate over a set. Easy, right?

No.

Look at the signature for Cycle. It's really hard to know what this does even though it's trivial:

fn cycle(self) -> Cycle<Self>
where Self: Clone

When you click through to the real documentation, it describes a useful use case for this. But that's not how programmers think. They think "I need to do X right now so I'll find something that looks right" not "I'm going to click through the documentation... oh X looks interesting I'll remember that later". There's no way to infer what Cycle really does without having actually clicked through or used it.
For server loads .NET Core is better on Linux; if you want GUI then Mono. (Unless you do an Electron web embed for GUI or similar)

Also Mono is full framework compatible; whereas .NET Core doesn't have the same api surface area as full framework (a lot of the Win specific stuff dropped, some older apis dropped etc). So it depends on the feature set you need also.
It has come a long way. It's pretty much a jack of all trades... master of drawing.

What counts as tech?

Is AirBnB tech, or hospitality? Is Uber tech, or transportation? Is the Apple Watch tech, or a watch? Is SpaceX tech, or aerospace? Is Tesla tech or automotive? Is Instacart tech or groceries? Are Twitter/Medium/Wordpress tech or media?

Not a rhetorical question, I'd actually like to know what's included in the 3% growth figure. I could believe it if tech is defined as "companies that sell computer hardware or softare", but it seems very low if tech is defined as "companies that provide a service using software or hardware that wasn't possible a decade ago."
The reason there overall margin is 18% is due to mobile. Their mobile margin is -30%. The rest of their business is closer to 30%.

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/50863/00011931251306...

As it stands today you can't really say it was a mistake to not get into mobile. They don't have the competitive advantages they had with x86. They had a monopoly there, but in the ARM space they would be just one of many.
At a certain point we have to stop beating around the bush and admit that being successful isn't something people are entitled to and it is something you actually have to work at.
