I'm confused. Flint lacks tax revenue due to having nothing of value to tax. How did the "plutocrats" drain wealth from Flint if Flint doesn't have any?

Wikipedia suggests Flint has had a budget deficit for many years. That means wealth is flowing into Flint, not out.

I have read a number of other articles which say essentially this as well, that essentially you aren't paid a market wage in Spain so the only people who work in Spain in technology have some alternate reason why they can't (or don't want to) leave.

I find these sorts of problems intriguing from a microeconomics perspective. There was a store in a small midwest town which closed because it couldn't afford to pay its workers, and felt if it raised its prices no one would shop there. The next closest store was 20 miles away. So people with the choice of buying something locally for 10 to 15% more than buying it remotely, it would seem would rather drive the 40 miles to get what ever it was they were looking for.

So how do economies get into these inversions? Is it globalization? is it an expectation of price or value? Is it the difference between economic action versus values?

So if Spain did pay a market wage what would impact be on other costs? Who do those companies sell to? In market? Out of market?

The 'forces' which hold particles together only operate over a very short distance. There may technically be larger 'particles', but they would only exist for a tiny amount of time before exploding apart.
In my experience, the real '10x' productivity bump comes from engineers who can internalize huge swaths of the codebase and make all of the necessary connections. Given a large enough product, that will be out of reach for the majority, due to either dedication or capacity. Hearing about a new feature and instantly knowing the implementation points and consequences instead of having to fumble around parts of the system you're not familiar with is easily '10x,' LOC be damned.
this could benefit if you qualified what very wealthy means
I'm not disagreeing with you but I'm curious what specific things you feel are 'chilled'? People in western countries can still write whatever they want - anti-government, anti-capitalism, whatever else. In fact there seem to be more conspiracy theories, Obama hate, and Clinton and David Cameron hate than at any time in human history. Like the most worry I have is having private actors look into my history and ban me from their sites or become targeted by hackers and such. That kind of stuff has a chilling effect much more to me than government/NSA/GCHQ, since they seem to have bigger fish to fry and they are ruled by law / principles taught in 'boot camp'
The problem with trying to separate them is that often a security fix is put into code that had feature changes, and so you can't get the security fix without the feature changes.

Going the other way requires developers to maintain a variety of old versions of their code so they can backport security changes. Which is a lot of work for them for very little extra value.

I've seen this posted elsewhere and the title always feels misleading. This wasn't an autonomous/self-driving car. Those aren't available to consumers yet. This car had an assist mode.

I've heard the Honda lane assist will start beeping at you if you remove your hands from the wheels. It's not clear from these articles how this worlds on the Tesla exactly.

I've heard that a lot of these safety features means peoples' guards could be let down and makes people less likely to react if something goes wrong.
Time Zone Licenses – NetLicensing
"But if you're not home, your phone sends the command to a server in China,..."

Do any "smart" devices not try to connect to remote servers, automatically, without asking the user for permission?

Do users care that "smartphones" they carry or other devices they put in their home automatically connect to remote servers so various companies can collect data, ..., turn sockets on/off, etc.?

If we do not like this practice and we want to see change for the better, then maybe we should put our comments in Amazon reviews instead on HN, security blogs, etc.
> We know, of course, that incomes are highly unequal today

I pine for the day when journalists who make statements like this in defence of their own articles aren't taken seriously without hard data to support their argument.
Social tension due to racial diversity is lower if income/wealth is more equally distributed (just look at other countries or economically successful groups, this goes into both directions).

Normally I like you posts but this is really a bad argument and I did not see a valid counterpoint in your different answers. Same as with your recent, flawed and disturbing blog post [1].
Everyone should have his political opinion, but if you look at the data (and that is, what you normally are really good at!) regarding income/wealth inequality (without any bias) I don't think you can honestly say that everything is fine.

A company once flew me to Madrid for an interview. Unfortunately, I cannot understand Spanish, but the receptionist at the hotel seemed to mumble to a friend: look they are flying people here, but our people are unemployed. It seemed a bit crazy for me as well, since I was unsure, if my person and skills justified that kind of effort.

The interview went fine and I think I was offered something around 30k, which was below my current wage in another (non-capital) European city, so I had to decline, although I loved Madrid and the team seemed really nice.
The Universal Commercial Code requires some terms be "conspicuous" in transactions, and says you can satisfy that requirement with all caps text of equal or greater size than the nearby text. There are some other options, like changing color or alternate fonts, but those are generally just more complicated.[0]

An example of a contract term that must be conspicuous is selling something "as is," ie, claiming no warranty that the thing even works at all.[1]

A note on Universal Codes - nonprofits, usually mostly made up of lawyers, will write model codes for state laws and then try to get them passed in each state so that state laws are predictable. Almost all states have adopted some provisions from the UCC, but several states have adopted modified versions or old revisions.[2]

> Oh, cry me a river. It's a global economy, this "national tech industry" bull needs to stop. If they can't out-compete globally, that's too bad. Maybe we should try to figure out WHY they cannot effectively compete in the first place? Hint: it's not Facebook's fault.

This "philosophy" is great, if you're the one with the goodies and services everybody wants. Most of the countries in the top of this chain are VERY protective of their own industries, and that's is why, in the first place, how they got in the top of the industry.

Here in Brazil, unfortunately, we have the only other type of people that thinks this "philosophy" is good: the brazilians "vira-latas" (mutts), the ones who think that the best economic theories that works is the ones imposed by "developed" economies. Most of these guys (like the one I'm replying) don't know about history and how these economies got developed to begin with. And it has nothing to do with "liberalism" or free market. Much the opposite.

This clearly inspired the early part of "The Proof House" by K J Parker (part 3 of The Fencer Trilogy)
That's why we Spaniards need to pitch in give our opinion about each point raised.

Very few Spaniards are skilled enough to "flee" the country, let alone speak enough English (or any other language) to be able to work abroad. Wages are low because both companies and workers are not very valuable. Companies are not adding enough value to pay good workers and good workers are extremely hard to come by anyway.

Yeah, but that's the intoxication you can hear in the Spanish media all day long. How the next politician is going to solve everything by throwing money everywhere... you can see how a society that readily swallows that crap can't be very skilled at doing any kind of work.
If people don't want to do a job, it is because it is not suitably remunerated.

Using illegal labour instead should not be defended. It undercuts the position of the legal workers.

My best friend lives in Spain. From what I was told, part of the problem is the fact that employers have too many requests, while not offering much in terms of payment and advantages. A lot of them hope to hire immigrants for cheap; this is quite a paradox given the percentage of Spain's population which is nationalistic.
Most of the real estate owned by UHNWI's in New York is not owned by one of the 5,600 living in New York. Rather the owners are from Russia, or China, or the Middle East, etc.

I am unable to make payroll this month. The problem on my desk is how to either increase revenue or reduce expense.
Banks don't loan money these days (try it) and they especially don't loan money to cover operating expenses.

You wander into my office with a "petition" signed by some employees stating that the "Free coffee needs a better quality bean" or "We want to wear jeans to work".

It looks to me that you've just solved both of my problems.

A few less employees who fail to focus on improving the business will help me reduce expenses and make payroll. It also gives me some spare cash to buy better quality coffee. Both problems solved by self-selection.

People seem to think that "being a good culture fit" is a new idea. But IBM used to "write up" employees who failed the dress code as "not a good culture fit". If the company wants polo shirts, wear polo shirts. If the company wants suits, wear suits.

Running a company is hard. Your suppliers demand immediate payment. Your retailers demand volume discounts. Your sales people want "promotion specials". Your landlord wants more money. Your employees demand "competitive wages". Your competition announced a new product. Your major customer threatened to quit.... And YOU want to argue about dress code? Will all those who don't focus on improving the business please step forward.
Jeremy Scott from MIT, along with two other people, created a visual language for tracing and explaining data structures and algorithms. "A Direct Manipulation Language

A bunch of teaching assistants used it during recitations for the course. It looks really cool and very helpful for developing intuition.

Does anyone know if there are any course materials online related to this?
I am surprised it took this long to discover this..
There was a Polish composer, writer and politician Stefan Kisielewski who used to say: "Socialism is a system which bravely fights problems that are not known in any other system". That describes situation of Spain perfectly.

Why are you being such a jackass with your replies? You asked an ambiguous question not really relevant to the article, people are trying to answer, and you're attacking their answers for not addressing the exact meaning of your question. Do you want answers or not?

Maybe if you edited your original post to better explain the answer you're looking for, someone could give it to you.

My own guess, as not-a-physicist, is that physicists expect the predictions made by existing science and their hypotheses to eventually be observed through experimentation. Given what we know, we can predict that some particles/types of particles should exist; projects like the LHC are created to test these predictions.

Or to put it simply: physicists might expect an upper bound on particle types because the available science doesn't suggest there should be an unlimited number of types of particles.
Introducing Command Line Interface for GitHub Users and Repos
Ah, I actually forgot about the rust-cpython package. The project is alive and it works with python3, too.

That brings me to another point I want to make. There is no community-breaking divide between ruby versions. People usually pretty easily port their 1.9 gems to newer 2.x APIs without breaking much.
PostgreSQL? I'm sure there are Oracle installations that would be difficult or impossible to replicate on PostgreSQL. But I'm also sure that the vast majority of databases would work fine under PostgreSQL. A "new project" in particular is unlikely to need anything that makes Oracle "special."

I wonder about that, because the Sherman anti-trust act says

1. "Every contract, combination in the form of trust or otherwise, or conspiracy, in restraint of trade or commerce among the several States, or with foreign nations, is declared to be illegal."

which is, extremely vague.

I think you are right, intuitively, creating a mobile platform on which only your approved vendors may sell is not breaking anti-trust because you created that platform and there was conspiracy or anti-trade sentiment involved in just the platform getting popular. Certainly we can agree it would not be a monopoly if the iphone only had a market of a few thousand people and apple controlled the app store.

At the same time, the law is so vague that it could easily be applied to Apple. All the Sherman anti-trust act seems to require is some kind of interstate or foreign trade (to bring it under Federal Jurisdiction) and a large control of any kind of Trade, which it seems to me could be applied against Apple on the whim of the Feds.

The question a judge would ask if this came to court is does the app store constitute a monopoly and is apple using that monopoly to it's advantage to crush competition. And I think the app store is a monopoly and of course when you have a monopoly you are going to use it to prevent people from competing with you.
Social tension due to racial diversity is lower if income/wealth is more equally distributed (just look at other countries or economically successful groups, this goes into both directions).

This might be true, but so what? This doesn't mean that racial diversity doesn't also increase social tension. If social tension = (racial diversity) x (income inequality) - treat that as a stylized equation indicating my line of thinking - we can reduce either one to reduce social tension.

(I'm unconvinced it's true, in any case. The US is more unequal than either India or Europe, yet seems to have far fewer racial/ethnic problems. Do you have evidence?)

My claim is simply the following. If "x causes social tension, therefore it's bad" is a valid argument, then it's valid for both income inequality and racial diversity. Note that I have no problem with either racial diversity or income inequality - to me both are intrinsically irrelevant, and I'm unconvinced they are extrinsically relevant.

I'm curious to know what the flaw is with my blog post. Did I make an arithmetic error? If so, please let me know - I'd love to fix it.

I'm also confused why you bring up politics or call that post "disturbing." There is a 2-line "P.S." in that blog post which explicitly disavows the idea that I'm pushing any politics. My comments here have advocated no policy position whatsoever.
