"then you're obviously not entering/creating a new market, nor you are attempting to find a product/market fit, are you?"

Yeah, and if you were entering/creating a new market, usually people do not understand why they need the product you are creating and thus the original analogy still does not work.

Overall I just feel the brick analogy is not great because there are no low hanging fruits anymore. If a problem is so painful, there must exist a competitor OR a home made solution.

Agree with the rest of your statements.

Wow, what a trainwreck. So many comments in here talking about whether it would be possible to compress data which looks like uniformly random data, for all the tests you would throw at it. Spoiler alert, you can't compress encrypted data. This isn't a question of whether we know it's possible, rather, it's a fact that we know it's impossible.

In fact, if you successfully compress data after encryption, then the only logical conclusion is that you've found a flaw in the encryption algorithm.

> So let's say you're offered $500k a year to work on some cutting edge secret technology, something that improves the relevance of web search results by 50%. The company would be crazy to not have a noncompete. What else stops you from going to a competitor and applying everything you've learned to their product?

Around here noncompete clauses are fine but nobody include them anymore as the company might have to pay salary for the employee for the entire noncompete period all while the emploee is free to go on paid leave or take any other work as long as it is not targeted by the agreement. (At least this is my understanding of the explanation I got from a former boss when I asked why that clause was removed from my revised contract.)

This gives the full liberty for the employer to gave non-compete clauses only it assures they don't add them willy-nilly just because they can. For high-profile cases like you mention this seems like a perfect deal, doesn't it?

What you are pushing is nothing but the idea of (secular) original sin for algorithms.

Unfortunately, innumerate reporters imagining AI as somewhere between a human and a 5 line python script doing exactly what the creator proposed are unable to comprehend this.
The comments about journalism already suffering from the mid-70s is interesting. It seems to generally be taken as gospel that the Internet is responsible for the woes of the newspaper industry and serious journalists everywhere.
Don't know about him, but for me: Confluence 5.6.3 and JIRA 6.3.6 (with Agile 6.6.11) and Bamboo 5.8.1 on an air-gapped secure network.

It's bad. We mostly blame the use of Java.

It looks like we're sticking with JIRA for now.

Confluence is kind of on the way out. We have numerous wiki servers. The big one, and all the new ones, run MediaWiki. We aren't running around converting. In addition to performance issues, the lack of standard (sorry, but MediaWiki sets the standard) wiki markup syntax hurts badly. The situation for importing a table is laughably awful, with stuff (CSV, tab delimited, space delimited, space padded, etc.) apparently needing to be first imported into a spreadsheet. The lack of category support (as seen on MediaWiki) is pretty much a deal breaker by itself. Instead you force something like a directory structure. Well, MediaWiki categories can be nested, but pages can also go in multiple categories. Confluence lacks that.

Bamboo... first of all, OMG the web interface is slow. I'm told that the licensing gets crazy past 10 build boxes. This causes issues with access controls, particularly when air-gapped (disconnected) networks are required. We need multiple instances just for that. Add in the need to build on several different versions of each OS, and it gets really really painful. I think we may be ditching this one, but it's duct taped together well enough for right now.
Yes. Although the weakness of it, is that if one get's compromised, they pretty much get access to everything. Single point of failure.

To me, the value in learning just a little bit of coding is in recognizing when something should be done programmatically and when something should be done by hand. Even a little bit of coding knowledge can allow that to occur, or allow the person to get the right person to automate it for them. The number of person hours I've seen wasted by not recognizing this is astonishing.

The insanity in your comment is the idea that urban density is the statist / authoritarian / corrupt central planning piece.

Try reading Louis Hyman's "Debtor Nation," particularly the bits on FHA and the creation of a national (and heavily subsidized) mortgage market.

The sub/exurbs, the essential symbiotes of car culture, are the dirigiste statist artifacts.

(yes, also a lot of the people who want to have you sell your Nissan Armada are also like that, and it's fair of you to call out statist authoritarian where you see them. But it's lunacy to suggest that suburbs and car culture just represent an organic Choice of the Free Market™)
Bursting the Great American Bubble: High School
I feel your pain due to a different reason. After seeing how the major Linux UI toolkits support consistent theming of all the programs using them, original styles/themes be damned, the lack of a consistently-applied theming system/mechanism among web applications is all the more obvious. With web pages this generally isn't an issue (barring annoying/just crap ones) but with web applications, why should their visual appearance and design be arbitarily (from my perspective anyway) decided by a developer/designer with no effective way to alter/change/override this either cleanly or consistently over multiple applications.

In Australia it's quite simple. If you want an enforceable non-compete, you have to pay the person their salary for the duration. I'm personally quite happy to sit on the beach on full pay for a year or two if you guys think it's important!
Except it is misguided. You need high functioning teams not individuals.

None of those states will catch up with California. The other states are proposing weak limits on noncompetes - limited by industry, limited to "unreasonable" terms, etc. California also doesn't let employers claim rights in work you do on your own time. Both of those rights fuel California's startup culture.
Not to mention showing consumers how governance could be better, and then daring politicians to go back to the old corrupt way of doing business.

There are already games that are better than DF available today. Several of them, some 3D, some 2D, all of them are superior games.

The only thing DF has going for it is the depth of detail. That is a significant feature, but some day one of these superior games is going to have that too.

I am a huge DF fan, I wish they'd hire an art developer or something. It's just ridiculous.
Seems to me this issue is getting to the point where it could become an existential threat to the credibility of science in general. Note how climate-change deniers have recently used these sorts of arguments to challenge the consensus - is it really so far-fetched to argue that perhaps climate scientists are as biased as researchers in areas such as medicine and linguistics?

The pay-wall, blind peer review process seems broken beyond repair. There needs to be a better, robust method to publish every relevant study that is not utter crank, and get some sort of crowd-sourced consensus from researchers with credible reputations.

> Note that he's not just handwaving in the magic word "regulation", he has a concrete proposal for six specific, privacy-protecting rules: http://idlewords.com/talks/what_happens_next_will_amaze_you....

Yeah, I’m not so sure that regulations will work all that well. They tend to entrench incumbents and squash innovation.

He points to Europe for regulations not working correctly, and I think it’s amazing that Google has greater market share over there than anywhere else. You would hope that European pride and resourcefulness would promote homegrown search engines. Nope, the major alternatives outside the US are protected by totalitarian regimes, and Europe tries to regulate Google, instead.

For example, right to download, right to delete, would only work if you are definitely identified. Current tracking is probabilistic, supposedly anonymized. In an ideal world, right to delete would mean no more tracking that you haven’t opted in. In the real world, I expect that right to delete would mean you need to be logged in and tracked even more closely. That’s certainly appealing to the “anti-terror” interests, too.

A big difference of computing versus other tech is just the amount of leverage that is possible. Mark Zuckerberg was making a web site to connect classmates, and then it was connecting all the universities, and in no time he’s the #6 richest person according to Forbes. When he started, I don’t think this is how he thought he would end up. He has simply been guided by his morality of creepy openness. The amount of change that we’re capable of creating is beyond our comprehension, and I think it’s unfair to judge our industry by the disaster stories that make it to public consciousness.
Wars of the future will be fought by people strapping bombs to themselves, obtaining the most destructive guns they can find and all the ammo that they can carry, and attacking civilian areas. 100 million dollar AI killing machines are mainly ways to funnel state money to the connected.
This conspiracy theory has the same fatal flaw that many others have: If arms companies are conspiring to cause war to secure business then there should be an even greater conspiracy undoing their work because many more businesses are hindered by war.

In this same way you can figure out that conspiracies about free energy and coal/gas industry suppression of alternative energies is bullshit. Almost everyone else in the world would love to have cheaper energy so they would not allow the oil or gas companies to suppress alternative energy.

Well that's my logic anyways.

> and get some sort of crowd-sourced consensus from researchers with credible reputations.

Would be nice, but where would the money come from? Even if you live in a country with high taxes that fund ridiculous projects, they are still often accountable to the public. Would the public want to fund new research or try to replicate or disprove other studies? The only way to make it work would be to build-in a certain percentage of funding for such a purpose in reaction to some gross oversight, so you could get the public behind it, or perhaps get some wealthy donors behind the cause, but I think you'll have a difficult time.

The better option might be having research students be required to replicate at least one study that hasn't been replicated in addition to doing their own research. That way you get some free labor!

You know you bring up a good point, in that I don't think the relevant regulations like pic, hippa, etc ever really require a certain tool, just certain checks and verifications.

Red Sea is simple. I am commanding with divine authority. I don't argue. I am fucken Pope of Intel. Suck my cock and smile.

RedSea File System

The RedSea file system is a simple, 64-bit, file system which is similar to
FAT32, but with absolute block addresses instead of clusters, fixed-sized
64-byte directory entries and no FAT table, just an allocation bitmap. A
cluster is just one 512 byte sector. Files are stored in contiguous blocks and
cannot grow in size.

#define CDIR_FILENAME_LEN 38 //Must include terminator zero

The following bit field shows valid 8-Bit ASCII filename characters.

U32 chars_bmp_filename[8]=
{0x0000000, 0x03FF73FB, 0xEFFFFFFF, 0x2FFFFFFF, 0xFFFFFFFF, 0xFFFFFFFF,
0xFFFFFFFF, 0xFFFFFFFF};

public class CDirEntry //64-byte fixed-size
{
U16 attr; //See RS_ATTR_DIR. I would like to change these.
U8 name[CDIR_FILENAME_LEN]; //See chars_bmp_filename, FileNameChk
I64 cluster; (blk) //One sector per cluster.
I64 size; //In bytes
CDate datetime; //See DateTime, Implementation of DateTime
};

public class CRedSeaBoot //RedSea is type FAT32 in partition table to fool BIOS.
{
U8 jump_and_nop[3];
U8 signature,reserved[4]; //MBR_PT_REDSEA=0x88. Distinguish from real FAT32.
I64 drv_offset; //For CD/DVD image copy.
I64 sects;
I64 root_cluster; (root_blk)
I64 bitmap_sects;
I64 unique_id;
U8 code[462];
U16 signature2; //0xAA55
};

See ::/Kernel/BlkDev/FileSysRedSea.CPP and ::/Adam/Opt/Boot/DskISORedSea.CPP.

Files with names ending in .Z are compressed. See ::/Kernel/Compress.CPP.

To replace ISO9660, make hard-drive partition image of a measured size and copy
onto a CD/DVD starting at about sector 20, with EL TORITO booting. 512-byte
sectors will be placed on top of 2048-byte CD/DCD sectors, so there will be four
blocks per CD/DVD sector.

RedSea file system has no bad block table and no redundant allocation table.

> The problem is, most of the dynamic proponents know next to nothing about the PL theory anyway.

This is either a "triumph" of theory over reality, or an insult of a whole group of people.

In short: A lot of people like dynamic typing, and can be productive in it. If the "theory" you cite says static typing is better, the "theory" needs to be changed to reflect reality. If, on the other hand, you're wrong about the theory and/or about dynamic typing enthusiasts knowing it, you should apologize.

Idk. It seems like the mistake was enacting these tax breaks in the first place, without putting the necessary effort into building enough housing to support the new jobs (or improving transit and building out more densely populated suburbs).

The ideal solution was probably to invest heavily in housing 5 years ago. But since it's too late for that, at this point it's just damage control. Even if SF does finally get moving on building more housing, it's so far past having enough of it in the reasonably near future that a small incentive for jobs to go elsewhere probably would help things in the next ~5 years. As far as progressive redistribution schemes go, this one actually makes more sense to me than most (as much as I hate to agree with Peskin et al).
