While I agree it's not that simple, it is that simple to fix the problem temporarily until a truly good scaling solution is found.

Resistance to doubling the block size once to wait out good, solid alternatives suggests other motivations on the part of the resistors.
The reality is the scarcity of bandwidth is minimal because the infrastructure itself gets cheaper the more customers you have. So adding a new tower or just adding more hardware to existing towers is a fixed cost which it's effects go down with the number of paying customers. This is classic economies of scale working in the favor of the Telcos they just don't want to admit it.
Maybe in the sense that one can ever really prove it to be "perfect".
AFAIK Google pays the same VAT as everyone else, which is the bulk of collected tax (particularly when you consider that if Google has no significant operations in the country, it has no VAT payments to deduct).

Google (and other on-line operators) have taken market from national advertisement companies because they are much more efficient and offer more value, not because of taxes.

> As for me, I see great differences between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Hillary seems so much false to me, she got all her money from political activities and lobbying, she is a slave of moguls, she is bought and sold. She never had to work hard and never risked everything she had. Her words don’t meet her actions. And her collision with the DNC turned the primaries into farce.

> Opposite to her, Donald Trump has earned his money himself. And at least he is sincere in what he says. His position is straight and clear.

So... good hacker. Crappy political commentator.

They need to fix many things, it doesn't seem they have a good knowledge and experience on the sms messaging world.

1) have a specific price for every single network makes it impossible to calculate which will be the final real cost for each country

2) it's crazy expensive outside the US. Every player in the SMS industry is 4x lower on average. IE: http://www.mailup.com/pricing/sms/

3) they don't support text as a sender. In many countries you can have "MyCompany" as a sender instead of a generic number or short code. This makes the communication much more effective.

4) They claim the pricing will be different for transactional & marketing traffic, but it's not clear how , they just provide one only price list.

5) first 100 messages to US numbers free (each month). I expect they will be soon abused and they will retire this offering.

6) they don't support 2-way communication

7) SMS prices usually go down when volumes increase

(as a French speaker,) I'm not sure to agree with the comments that associate "mise en abyme" with recursivity.

For me, examples of mise en abyme is a film shot in a movie, or story read from a book in a book. In CS, it means a function called from another function ... which is not necessarily recursivity :)
The following ramble will try and address the disagreement I'm having with the subtext I'm inferring from your post, that the desire to look over such a dataset is something to be looked down on.

It's a rare dataset with some very interesting implications, as someone who works with data (and humans) I'm curious to better understand parts of behavior one can't often observe.

Now; I will say that if used, it should be handled properly, anonymized to whatever degree possible, and would reject analytics use cases which aim at attacking the subjects.

However, to deny that there are fascinating and valuable questions to be asked in how different population strata interact is to deny a basic curiosity present in many I've met from tech-centric communities.

(Edit: to answer the child since reply limited: Perhaps I misunderstood you, since I read your statement as implying that people only wanted the data to "punish" the users or as some morbid curiosity in the prior case; since as you say I have equal (significant) desire to look at the datasets in both cases; I took the OP comment to focus more on the _sentiments_ and not on the data usage itself as you held up to example.)

The particulars of this content (and the action by The Yes Men) aside for a moment, this is just another illustration that the current shape and function of the internet is highly censorable. This is a fixable technical problem.

There needs to be an easy, low-friction way for groups like The Yes Men to publish content such that no single actor can subsequently be pressured to remove it. Whether it's federated web, P2P, blockchain, onion routing, some other tech, or a combination of all of the above, this needs to be an increasing priority so that viable civic discourse can continue and blossom.
What do you want to do? Tech related? Find a meet-up or hacker space or make one. Something more physical like a sport or physical activity? Join a rec league, find a cycling group, join a gym, find groups that go hiking/climbing. Community involvement? Attend city council meetings, find out who's active and talk to them and find out what they do and where.

Seems like a grand solution when we're failing even the lesser and more obvious solution: Don't allow them to ship earnings into havens.

Saying we can tax them globally is like saying we can tax them domestically. We fail on the latter, so i can't imagine we'd succeed on the former.

And while i do agree that blame alone is of little use, blame is often the precursor to action. You have to decide who is at fault and or what to focus fixes on, via blame, before you can actually fix them imo. When i see blame discussions like the above, i just assume (perhaps foolishly) that it's the discussion prior to the fixing stage.

Not that the above discussion will fix anything, of course.. but if we can't decide on what is to blame, how can we decide what is to be fixed?

I run a rental business and purposely purchase products that I need for personal use such that it can be deducted as a rental expense. As long as I use it >50% for rental stuff it's tax deductible.

Should I feel bad?

More specifically, does this violate the "spirit of the law?"

Even more specifically, every other rental owner does the same thing, so even if I change my behavior, I'm at a disadvantage with my competitors.

Again, your issues are with the government, not the companies that are following the law.
This is not intended to start any kind of flamewar or editor battle, but to be honest, my switch to Vim (and obviously I could've picked any editor, Vim was just the next on my list) was ultimately motivated by RSI concerns. The constant chording with Emacs led to shooting pains in my left hand that fairly rapidly resolved after I switched editors.

Fundamentally, IMO, Emacs just has poor ergonomics. Single chorded key sequences are one thing... other editors and IDEs, including Vim, frequently rely on single chorded commands or a single chorded command followed by a sequence of single characters.

But having to enter multiple chorded keys in a sequence to complete a command greatly exacerbates RSI issues when using Emacs heavily, as the meta key has to be held for a much longer period of time.

Fortunately, there are options like evil and viper that give you the best of both worlds (though I've never made that transition).
Well, the probability is non-zero. And people win.

Interesring points. Lets see:

3. IoT has other non-mesh protocols like Lora which will work well.

1. Since spectrum efficiency is similar to 4G, to offer more bandwidth,you'll need to use mmWaves. But those don't penetrate buildings, and won't be everywhere and people like their cellular communications to be everywhere.

Also I read that base stations will be much more expensive, and it makes sense - the technology is harder to build.

Also with mmWaves there will be a lot of unlicensed spectrum and the way you buy spectrum will may be different - so and that could create a lot of business models that threaten carriers.

2. I didn't get the part about Verizon branded with, could you please explain?

The fact that your excellent and sourced comment has been downvoted to the point of it being near invisible on my screen just further proves your point.

>There are topics on which I have a lot of domain knowledge relative to the typical HN commenter.

I also agree with this. I have domain knowledge in a couple odd places and the top voted comments on these domains on places like reddit or HN are embrassingly wrong. It used to be we'd get a random expert drop some serious knowledge but those people seem to be gone. If you're just a run of the mill Joe and finding your random musings racing to the top via upvotes, chances are you don't know what you're really talking about, but you know how to "work the room."

Experts usually have better things to do and probably get easily discouraged by being downvoted and having to real with disingenuous or ignorant replies. Internet forums have a real problem with Dunning-Kruger suffering participants. Say, some geek does a little light reading and now thinks he's an expert on some topic. The guys upvoting him did the same light reading. So if you disagree with that Salon or Guardian or Huffpost narrative, then you're going to be downvoted because it goes against what the "local experts" think. The problem is that article, even if it isn't biased, certainly has not exhausted the problem domain or touched upon more advanced criticisms or alternative theories. How could it, in an article written for a general audience and often under 700 words?

Its a bit like being in a small town. You don't criticize the local pastor or mayor, unless you want an earful on how "we all know better than you." This is also why certain types of people flee small towns. Its insular nature is same as on internet forums unfortunately. Being mindful of this seems to be the only sane path forward and having serious skepticism of popular internet narratives as well.

Yet the consequences for AM users could be severe as well (divorce, stigmatization, etc.). Yes, physical harm is worse than divorce, but it's a spectrum.

Also, interesting thought exercise: there probably was a percentage of AM users that were Muslim. Was it a larger percentage than those users on Muslim Match who would face persecution?
Depends on where you work. I work for a 24,000-person enterprise, and I definitely have the freedom to do this. However, this is in large part due to my direct management—they encourage and enable me to do this, despite disfunction in some other parts of the org.
> It's actually pretty friendly to non-technical users.

To use, sure. To install and administer? Not so much. You can get a Wordpress.com account, but that doesn't solve the ownership problem.

Sandstorm.io goes some way toward fixing the specific problem of Wordpress being impossible for non-technical users to install and administer. (Probably quite a long way, in fact.)

And that's great! For Wordpress. But it doesn't do anything to solve the larger problem of ownership of data, which - and I appreciate I didn't make it clear in the comment to which you're responding, but see [1] - is in this case a cipher for ownership of identity, which right now belongs to social media networks, which is another way of saying it belongs to Facebook.

It's not clear that something like Urbit is necessary to solve this problem. But it's also not clear that something like Urbit is not necessary, and I don't know of anyone else who's even trying to attack the problem directly.

It makes sense to license the IP. Pushing the IP fees to the point that the subsidiary doesn't make money, not so much.

Likewise, it makes sense to loan money to your subsidiaries so they can grow. But making large, unnecessary loans of money from tax havens to sink your subsidiary's profitability doesn't sound honest.
And I'm struggling with the same thing: hence the comment thread here. Wouldn't Muslim Match have "interesting implications" as well?

> just stating his own opinion

Yup. I'm just judging his opinion with my own opinion. Which is that he (and you) are wildly misreading those candidates if that's what you really believe about them.
Which means, and this is a big one, you're going to have to deal with the people who sell influence for favours?

But that is the political class, and they are the ones driving the train for companies to pay more tax. Which doesn't make any sense if all that is truly required is for them to fix their own laws and unethical behaviours. Right?

Perhaps the activity just doesn't interest you or doesn't suit you?

I've been repeatedly frustrated by efforts to learn new languages, and usually let my attempts fade off. Without a clear motivation for learning the language other than to learn it it's hard to maintain the effort. (This has changed recently with my attempt to relearn Spanish, I was almost fluent 18 years ago and now have a good reason to regain and maintain it.)

So what sort of novel activities have left you feeling tired?

Probably not the best turn of phrase.

I've observed an interesting trend however, which is that as the world ages (life expectancy rises and the number of people over the age of 65 grows faster than the number of people under 35) it seems to empower the politics of nostalgia. "Back in my day ..." and all that. I was really impressed at how Bernie Sanders got the younger generation motivated and out there. We need more people to do that because I feel like it makes no sense at all for people who have perhaps 20 to 30 years left to live being the deciding vote on issues that are going to affect the country for 50, 60 or even a hundred years.
I find that the terminology used also matters in how people know about managing the audience for what they write. In Facebook, you have to create "lists", which nobody knows about and most people don't care to create. In Google+, from the beginning you're told about "circles" (like "friends circle"), which is so easy to understand and also choose the cirles you want to address when publishing posts.

In this regard, Facebook has always seemed like it wanted people to overshare with everybody (it's been proven with its blunders on the privacy front). Now the same overload is causing fatigue among its users (at least to some extent).

I'm frustrated that Google+ has been stagnant like a beta service without new features or even addressing usability issues to make it better for years now (vanity URLs for groups/users - still no; changing group privacy after creation - still no; and many other annoyances).
Yes I haven't looked but I supposed there's no dividends, only growing shares value.
Add to this words attributed to Napoleon Bonaparte: "A Constitution should be short and obscure."

Tax raids are often a symptom of such legislative tradition where laws are written so as to allow authorities to apply loopholes to get their way (as opposed to loopholes for citizens or companies). In my country (Finland) there are practically none, and the tax collection procedure is very effective. This amount of control comes at a price, of course; regulation is predictable but there's a lot of it (and recently the development has been towards more and more rapid and unpredictable changes, often somewhat to do with how to apply EU regulations).
Tensorflow is preferred but Caffe works too. What I'm looking for are pretrained image recognition, audio recognition, etc algorithms that can be embedded into a Nifi processor, so that popular ML techniques can be accessed with a drag and drop interface :)
Agreed, well put on the severity of the consequences.

Was anyone in the AM leak Muslim and persecuted? I didn't hear about any stories. Will anyone here be persecuted for their actions? We don't know and are supposing.
I can't fault anyone for trying to legally minimize their tax burden.

I think what you're missing is the fact that the Tax Office is pursuing Google for an apparently grounded belief that they were, in fact, acting illegally. (That is, making false representations as to the true functional roles of its local subsidiaries, so as to make its locally-generated revenue appear much smaller than it actually is, per a recent El País article).

Not simply for being "clever" and minimizing their tax burden within established guidelines.

I think that you are adding cognitive dissonance, not removing will power, from the equation. Will power means following through on an intention. Unless you accidentally stop smoking because you all of sudden realize that it does not in fact makes you feel good and makes you feel worse, you are ultimately following through on an intention that is hard and many smart people fail at or relapse.
> I tend to not be convinced by self-improvement recommendations that aren't explicitly tailored to specific people and their personalities. There are so many variables in play!

I tend to agree with this sentiment especially considering I have read and tried to apply quite a few in my own life.

However, I am currently working my way through Thinking, Fast and Slow[0] and I can't recommend it enough. It's not so much a self-improvement/help book as it is a way to define the language we use in speaking about the different systems of the brain (think intuitive vs effortful). Worth the read.
