Can income be considered a type of profit in this context?

I'm not an expert, but at first blush the term 'implicit costs' seems to be so much handwaving. I'm sure there is something concrete there somewhere but to just say 'Well these top earners naturally far outstrip other people and maintain that position over long periods of time without anyone jumping onto their boat because of implicit costs' seems a bit too magical to be useful.
Here in Uruguay I think its about 7,5% for the unified healthcare system, called FONASA

Then you affiliate to the health society you want(many privates and a public one)
I pay under 2% pre-tax with another 2% exposed to the deductible. Employer covers around 80-90%. 401k + health insurance is pretty standard for devs. Sounds like you are paid under market and have meagre benefits.
While anecdotal, I have a charger from a 2006 MBP that has no fraying at all and is in great working order with a MagSafe 2 adapter. I've beaten the crap out of it too and travelled a ton with it. It's a bit dirty looking, but not damaged and perfectly functional, especially for a 10+ year old charger.
Well, there's an idea: require a special certificate (via an extension) to enable pinning.
Is there a way to make it do so?
I get all of the other logistical arguments why Manhattan works well for old people, I've seen that first hand.

But a 1 BR condo in Manhattan is in the $3500-$4000/month range. What sized house is that they're downsizing from? Because if it's in Colorado, that's a 5BR 4000+ square foot house. If it's Tennessee, Missouri, Georgia, you've got that on a dozen acres, with a guest house, a barn, and horses, and staff.

Median retirement income in the U.S. is ~$31k per year. So again, they're doing this how? Great idea if you're old and reasonably wealthy. This is not something the typical old fart is going to be doing for retirement.
"Some groups, such as men and adults with less education, as well as ethnic and racial minorities, were especially unlikely to receive any treatment for their depressive symptoms"

I know that when I was making less money and had worse insurance, I never have even considered getting any kind of treatment for my depression. Me feeling bad and hating everything was something I felt I could deal with, and it took a low priority over pretty much everything else.
I did mention that. " (many of these people probably go to multiple gun shows every year so this does not imply 12.5 M people went but some smaller number went to multiple shows)."

#1) We're talking about on a given year here. and all my stats revolve around the risk of an event happening for a person over the course of a year.

#2) Multiple visits increase the odds of being in an accident. because it's impossible to know how many people attended multiple shows. I am looking at attendees as an individual visit to a gun show. The risk factor showing the odds of being in an accident at a single visit to a single show are more meaningful anyhow.

If you go to one gun show in a given year your odds are around 1 in a million for being involved in an accident. If you go to two your odds jump to 2 in a million.

Get it?
I agree, v3 can be marked as done easily.

Yet, I understand people having concerns with them dropping support for v3 not having the v4 in a production-ready stage.

But like you said, developers might as well get their hands on the alpha to and see by themselves if the use they make of the library suits their needs and works fairly well. For most people, even an alpha version will probably work fine.
Oh boo-hoo. Everyone has coworkers, colleagues, and/or acquaintances who are jerks. You deal with them because you have to. If you're going to be a professional and part of a professional community, act like it. You don't throw your weight around like you're in a grade school popularity contest.
Well, the clang compiler might interfere with that nowadays, even though it's a C compiler.
I could be totally wrong as I haven't really messed with it beyond dabbling, but from what I've heard, ASP.NET 4.? (6?) to ASP.NET Core is a pretty big shift which is why there's a lot of conversation around it. In fact, ASP.NET Core has a lot of changes vs the RCs (dipped toes into JSON configs, reverted back). Nuget has given up front end to bower now as well.

Perhaps that means desktop .NET Core is a more familiar experience? I'm not sure. But unless it is UWP or ASP.NET, I don't know how much we'll see coming as far as talk goes.
Are more adults depressed, or are we just noticing it more? I can't tell if we're hitting the next phase of "just give the kids adderall" or if this is actually a problem with US society right now. The current popular jokes all revolve around hating your life and killing yourself, it's kinda strange.
It really depends on what "culture fit" means - lots of people have way different definitions. On the shitty side, there's people who mean something like "would I enjoy getting drinks with this person on a Friday night". On the actually reasonable side, there's "would I expect this person to use their initiative to find and solve problems while minimally supervised".
I agree it sucks they aren't just covering it for people. However, I have a launch 6+ that I've beat the crap out of and sat on tons of times. It has not bent even a little and I'm a big person. I've also had no touch screen issues. Obviously YMMV but I've literally stepped on the thing by accident, dropped it down a pile of rocks at the beach, and other unintended abuse with no issues at all.
There's nothing stopping you from pinning exclusively to keys under your control. A pin counts as satisfied if the hash matches at least one of the keys in the certificate chain, including the end-entity certificate itself. In other words, if you do not trust any CA, HPKP can still help you.

For most sites, pinning to a small set of CAs is sufficient and a vast improvement, but if you chose to trust no one, that's fine too.
This is the most striking difference between software shops and, well, any other kind of engineering, this emphasis on "culture fit."

There are lots of different components to culture. There is no rigor behind it, which is in contrast to the self-described emphasis on extreme logical rigor that the industry is allegedly built on. Why is there such an emphasis on "culture fit" in the software industry?
As a snarky non-lawyer, I'd offer to defend them from themselves for a literal mountain of cash.
Apple made $7.6 billion USD in net income in the last quarter; I'm pretty sure they have plenty to cover the cost of repairs because of poor manufacturing quality.
I've worked partially remote for the past two years. I had one horrid stint fully remote where they thought remote == 24 hour work days.

There are pros and cons to remote. It depends on your team and their culture. Some teams need a whiteboard and planning sessions. Others can just do a screen share and work on a flow chart together. If your team and culture is capable of remote it's a really nice perk for employees.

The other thing I hear about is lack of social contact working remote. This was an issue for me before I developed some outside hobbies. But the remote work spawned the hobbies, because I had more time. Where as working on site I don't have any time for hobbies due to travel and preparation for the day. I really haven't maintained ties with my prior co workers. The one I still do meet frequently we worked together on a primarily remote job, 3 days a week. So you can still maintain good social contact over the days.

The only real reason I see for not remote is management and culture issues. If your superiors can derive your progress from a dash board, commits, tickets, etc. Then it's feasible. Where as if the only way to determine progress is one one one meetings with a white board, then remote won't work. This also speaks to the trust of the employees.

I also find I get so much more done at home. This goes back to the culture. In person offices are from what I've seen largely instant gratification. I.E. coming over knocking on your desk asking a question, or pulling you in for a meeting. This provides so many distractions pulling you away from work. Remote would be an email or chat message. If it was extremely urgent a phone call. It was almost asynchronous. As we were planning out software we would just amend design notes and update the flow diagram in jira.

Lastly is the peace of mind of comfort. One of the common things I did when working remote was sitting in a gazebo at my nearby park. I tethered off my phone for the day, and just listened to nature. Being camped up in an office staring at walls all day is not ideal. Getting out being able to walk around and clear your head can make the day so much easier.

I really want to get back to fully remote.
I think "opt out" means opting out of being able to be pinned, not just choosing not to pin. Instead of pinning a certificate, you might pin "This domain will not be pinning a certificate before $date."
Echoing, what I believe is the underlying premise of patio11's advice:

The potential client -- anyone who isn't currently paying you is a prospect, not a client-- is asking you to change your business model. That may or may not be worth doing depending on the amount the prospect is willing to pay and the opportunity costs that accompany the new business model versus the previous business model.

Patio11's point that this is a bespoke contractual negotiation surfaces the idea that the prospect is really looking for a consultant rather than a product. In that context, the services offered under the contract ought to be priced so that the client pays for the risk associated with misappropriation of the intellectual property whether or not it occurs -- or conversely pays for extended access to the IP.

All of that is friction for a business structured to operate on a different model. In my experience, losing a good prospect is easier to recover from than accepting a bad prospect by a substantial margin.

Good luck.
15-30 mins in commuting distance is very optimistic unless you are able to pay through your nose. Think of it like this, if you earn an average salary then you can spend this much (pre-tax income) for living this close in commuting time from the city center.

75% of it for living < 5 mins away
50% of it for living < 10 mins away
30% of it for living < 15 mins away
25% of it for living < 30 mins away
20% of it for living < 60 mins away
15% for > 60 mins away

This is an annoying problem – even if your entire site uses HTTPS, users could be vulnerable if they ever follow an HTTP link or their browser's autocomplete doesn't update to use HTTPS.

Strict Transport Security was designed to solve that problem partially by telling the browser to never make an insecure HTTP request:

http://caniuse.com/#feat=stricttransportsecurity

That's widely supported now but it does require your browser to have previously visited the legitimate site within the stored `max-age` period. Preloading (https://hstspreload.appspot.com/) can close that further but increases the organizational commitment that your web developers will never break the all-HTTPS contract by mistake.
You can compile Rust without the stdlib, how much memory you use is then up to you. Code size is not an issue, 4MB of flash are common now.

> The problem with cryptocurrency is that it attracts a lot of shitty people.

I think it's fairly well accepted that that's a problem with currency in general. There's a reason we have the perception that wall street is populated entirely by douche bags, and that's because while even though not all of them are, a sizable portion are.
...except for the OP's whole point - they break easy.

For instance, cords. There's never been a load coil on their cords, because they look clunky. So they are noisy as heck. Their cords have no strain relief - again because it looks clunky. So their cords are the #1 replacement item due to breaking all the time right at the connector.
> > the ability for sites with low security requirements to opt out of HPKP.

> opt out?! It's off by default.

I think tptacek meant that a site owner should be able to explicitly declare that nobody should be able to pin a key, so that nobody can hijack the site in the future.
This is a mostly incoherent comment; enough so that I can only read into it what your profile statement gives away about your inclinations.
While I agree that holding people accountable for predictions has value, I think the problem is that columnists and academics do not understand the difficulties of mass production. Perhaps asking the columnist or academic to place a cash bet on their technology (against all comers at odds specified by the predictor) would be a check.
It's not just the cost of reviews though. Most new journals take decades to become break-even, they're typically subsidized by cashcow journals (big names with good reputations which bring in solid revenue).

Launching a new journal is a non-trivial process, you have to convince people to publish in it, you have to convince peer reviewers that it's worth their effort, etc. You have to have a marketing and sales teams that gets it into the hands and minds of researchers/libraries/etc. Then follows several decades of brand building before you make any real money. Many journals don't make it and die and publishers have to swallow the losses.

In practice OA has other solutions (author pays) to fund this, but it's far from a free lunch.

Uh...
Yeah. When i first started it took me a long time to get into the right mindset.

What works for us is "status meetings" where we all go over a bit about what we are working on for the next few days. They seem pretty useless on paper, but it allows people to chime in with "wait, will you be touching system X", or "hey i worked with that before give me a call", and it gets i'd say 70% of the benefits of hallway conversations, but it's still not perfect.

I feel like a "sidebar" system of "not quite isolated, but not conversation-dominating like talking to the whole group" kind of in-between mode in group video chat software would be a godsend, but the UX of getting it right would be really hard.

Also, for something more programmer related, having peer code-review is really helpful as well. We don't do it as much as we should, but having a few people look over your commits, and you over theirs is a great way to get some of the benefits from that "hallway conversation" while also solving some other problems.
Adopting open innovation (or why I won’t steal your idea)
Unfortunately in some legal jurisdictions (e.g. the USA) this would not be allowed. You can't simply declare an employee to be self-employed and compensate them by means of invoices/1099 filings. This arrangement is only allowed if, among other things, the employee performs work for a number (greater than 1) of clients.
I don't understand why verifying the checkmate end state is any harder than playing each turn.

They say

> For checkmate and stalemate, to verify the condition all possible moves have to be calculated and verified, which is unfeasible on the blockchain.

But "all possible moves" is only one-move deep. We're generally talking a couple dozen possible moves at most. If the system can't calculate a couple dozen possible moves, how is all the basic move logic being done "on chain," as they say?
While there may well be more bad (by whatever metric) for-profit colleges there are also bad non-profit colleges. And non-profit itself is a bit of misnomer. It is true that registered non-profits can't pay dividends to their shareholders, but they can and sometimes do pay exorbitant salaries to those that have control over them.

As the gainful employment rule[1] currently stands it exempts degree programs from public and private non-profit institutions. I'd rather see a uniform set of metrics and standards applied to all institutions eligible for student loans.

People often complain about the legality issue surrounding emulation and roms in general. One thing to remember about the proliferation of the roms and emu scene is that of convenience. People now a days tend to appreciate having less stuff and digital content. Steaming, Steam, etc. If Nintendo created some sort of digital game marketplace odds are good emu and rom scene would deteriorate. fundamentally issue is the scene itself and how gamers now a days want to consume content.

Also important to remember is that often times the older consoles and cartridges no longer function well, the condition of the physical hardware starts to deteriorate and unfortunately things can wear out.
The Google personalisation filter bubble seems to have me covered, even in incognito (this is a work machine with its own public IPv4). Nothing but programming on the first five pages for either query.

"std list" is another good one, with very different meanings to C++ programmers and just about anyone else :)
You don't need SkyTran in dense city centers; it can't handle the volume of people that a subway can. SkyTran is an alternative for cars; it can handle a lot more people than cars, and in a far more efficient manner. It's not meant for extremely dense areas, except perhaps as an alternative to taxis (i.e., in places like London or Manhattan, it would have to more expensive than the subways and cater to richer people). The main use-case for SkyTran is for suburbs, inter-city transport (between cities close enough to drive), etc.

Well, when you can handle an exception cleanly why wouldn't you rely on it?

Just because we usually associate an exception with unintended behavior doesn't mean that is always the case.
What is interesting here are the trade offs. This battery has tech has a larger size, making it infeasible for consumer electronics. But it promises better safety, less cost and more cycles.

It has a long way to go from lab to the marketplace. But if it gets there, it could be a game-changer for home solar and wind applications.
Failed Tests Аnalysis- Chain of Responsibility Design Pattern
Very different circumstances than yours, I see. I don't know what would happen to my costs in the same situation, though I do know they'd go up quite a bit.

I still stand by my other point, your insurance should be paying something before you hit your deductible. If it's not, you need a new plan.
I don't think you understand genetics.

There technically is no such thing as a "good" or "bad" gene, only an advantageous, disadvantageous, and neutral variant of a gene. Given that some genes can be read forwards and backwards, and that simple environmental causes, aka just changing an environment, can turn a disadvantageous gene expression into neutral or positive, it's hard to say something is eugenically good in a population unless it is a 1 gene mutation with 99% penetration that always causes death. (Huntingtons would be in this group)

Genomics says what you are saying is frankly impossible. If it weren't
A) there would be no such thing as incomplete penetrance
B) or traits linked to multiple genes
C) or ways to manipulate social science statistics with simple experiments, like subsidizing iuds for high school students and seeing what happens. That's a purely environmental factors, and yet your supposed "bottom 20" stops acting like it as thier environment changes in one subtle way

Where did you get the Idea that any of what you are saying is scientifically sound?
You're missing the point. I can describe why I would find a KKK rally or a gun show offensive. That doesn't mean everyone would be offended, or uncomfortable about the same things. My point was about vague claims of "not feeling comfortable" at a conference with no explanation of what caused the discomfort. From what I've read there's no substance: Crockford didn't do anything, a few people made some vague claims about how they felt, not about anything Crockford did.

It's one thing for me to say I don't like overt displays of racism and bigotry, or I get nervous around people carrying guns where Nazi "collectibles" are on display. It's another thing for me to try to ban a gun show or prevent people going because I'm uncomfortable with some aspect of it.

Some people don't like spiders. I get it, although they don't bother me. But is it my problem to deal with someone's fear of spiders? Of course I wouldn't shove a spider in their face, but am I responsible for their terror if they see a spider in my garage? I am responsible for my feelings and how I react to them. I don't hold gun owners or Klan members responsible for how they make me feel.
> The most common treatments for depression were antidepressants (87.0%), followed by psychotherapy (23.2%), anxiolytics (13.5%), antipsychotics (7.0%), and mood stabilizers (5.1%).

As a former therapist turned software engineer, herein lies the problem. 87% antidepressants? How are we defining "treatment?" Depression is a complex beast, and does it always require "treatment"?

I had a kid with my wife (together 10 years) about 15 months ago. Our little guy slept like absolute shit until a month ago, awaking multiple times per night, every.single.night. Nothing changed this; he finally grew out of it. We also moved, remodeled our home, and became a little isolated. I have suffered depression, including a period of hospitalization early on, dabbled with antidepressants, etc since adolescence. Never had psychosis, as I am lucky. I worked as a therapist for many years. I know this stuff. Yet due to psychosocial stressors, I fell into a period of depression for a couple months. The poor sleep mixed with isolation due to moving, and less exercise, probably. Gained 20 lbs. I know better, I know my triggers, I know warning signs, but it happened. Antidepressants would have masked the issues here. The side effects are subtle but serious over time. And they don't fix the problem for people with my kind of depression. Yet, my primary care doc would have prescribed antidepressants in a heartbeat. That is a serious problem with the medical system in the US.

What is "treatment"? Sleep, exercise and social experiences? Is there a way to measure that reliably and accurately? Probably not; that is why I take articles like this with a big grain of salt.
It is very important to have defense in depth, and having good perimeter (your VPC) security as well as internal security (CI config.)

duckduckgo does exactly that - it lists all the possible interpretations across the top of the results page, plus a list of likely matches (based on statistics I suppose). Try searching for 'polish' which could mean making shoes shiny, or central European people.
This is a pretty good summary, but to note this is not a new unsupervised technique - it's a sparse coding method, and sparse coding has been around for more than a decade. Summarizing this paper without mentioning the word sparse coding seems wrong somehow. ;)
