Easily. Personal income was 15737.7 billion in 2015

http://www.bea.gov/newsreleases/national/pi/2016/pdf/pi0716....

and GDP in current dollars was 18036.6 billion - http://www.bea.gov/national/xls/gdplev.xls, so 87.5% of GDP was income, and that figure has been pretty much constant over last 50 years, at never out of 75-90% range for sure. In fact, it is higher than average in the last 10 years or so - while difference is really small.

Disposable income after all taxes and including all social transfers (excluding non-monetary ones like food stamps and assisted housing) was 69.5% of the GDP, also quite typical figure which shows to tendency to fall over time, more likely to rise.

Surely that includes dividends, rents, and realized capital gains. And yet, it must have been reflected in the chart in question, if only in the top decile - while chart somehow shows incomes of all deciles falling from 2000, which is hard to believe.

MRSA is Staph Aureus, a gram-positive organism, and colistin is only (to my knowledge) used in treating gram negative infections (such as e coli, which can carry mcr-1).

MRSA can be treated with a number of different antibiotics, including vancomycin, daptomycin, linezolid, Bactrim, and clindamycin to name a few. Teixobactin is not yet on the market or approved for use in humans.
Yes. If a modest amount of 9k would work, then giving everyone a million each would work as well. The Keynesian economist in Washington and Tokyo have already filled up the bathtub to no avail. This is the difference between money and currency.
Indeed. Back to the roots!

They're using split testing, conversion rate optimisation, and bizdev to design their sites. When something appears on a corporate website, it's there to benefit someone in the corporation, not the users (although it might benefit them as a side effect).
Yeah, you're totally right. Pointing out that it's not that terrible if a society's largest problem is that many of its young males are depressed is exactly the same as endorsing cannibalism or underage marriage. You clearly have won the internet for today.

I just heard a Podcast from HP and Autonomy's chief customer guy hyping NPS score. I guess they never asked you. :-)
Very good question. It's basically incomprehensible why Apple doesn't support the codec in iOS, especially since the other issue that replacing wired headphones with Bt is that the sound quality is inferior - even with aptX support.

I'm very surprised that I have seen almost no mention of the fact that Apple didn't just remove an "outdated" interface and inconvenience their customers, they also simultaneously reduced the quality of their audio experience.
Surprised to see them not move from Lighting to USB-C with this. Now we'll have a new generation of EarPods that won't fit their new generation of MacBooks. It seems disjointed for how coherent a company like Apple tends to be, now that they had the opportunity to unite their product line better with purely digital audio.

Was USB-C supposed to be their future or not...? It sounded like it when they introduced the MacBook. Do their teams communicate well with a lack of strife?

with Apple forcing everyone to use Bluetooth headphones

forcing you by including wired headphones in the box and wired headphone adapters in the box and not even having the bluetooth headphones available at release date? That kind of forcing?

long-term exposure to EM radiation cannot be good, no matter how much low-power it is.

You realise that wires radiate E/M as well, right? And that light is 'electromagnetic waves'? and that radiant heat is too?

IIRC, Chipotle's Chiptopia promotion this summer allows users to sign up with a + in their email address, but not log in or do a password reset.
Rote memorization and low details education is good for creating compliant, easily-fooled suckers whom sign up to the Marines because they enjoyed playing America's Army or Halo.

Instead, we (all of us) havr to do the hard work in instilling courage, mistrust of blind obedience to authority and critical-thinking into those coming up to be less fooled as adults and more likely to become public interest lawyers, more involved in fact-checking and holding people accountable for their duties / behavior.

Standardized testing (NCBLA) is exactly the wrong "medicine." There is no quick/easy fix except spectacular teachers, parents and mentors that care to not spoon-feed, child-proof the world or helicopter parent too much because learning requires someone else doing the thinking to figure out why it's important, not simply being led through random motions aimlessly.
And now you are an expert on a society with hundreds of millions of people that dates back thousands of years. And you can diagnose all of its problems and report back to us. Good thing we have you adding to the conversation.
So we take what we're currently spending and spread it out to everyone instead of just people who need it?

Doesn't that mean that the people who need it the most will just get less than they're getting now?

In other words, are people who are relying on current US welfare systems often using more than (say) 10k/year in total benefits, and giving them 10k in cash instead would actually reduce their total compensation? And if not, then how can the cost of our current welfare systems be comparable to UBI?
Even Linux tools like GNOME Archive Manager in Linux Mint 18 rejected my RAR password containing a $ as the incorrect password, even though it was the correct password for the RAR file I was trying to extract. I then used the command-line unrar utility with the exact same password, and it extracted successfully.

Now, why would you preemptively (and explicitly) throw out a candidate password string based on its characters?

At least make the validation consistent.

I also had trouble with connecting to a wifi network with a WPA password containing an ampersand in Arch Linux using the Arch Wiki's recommended command line network manager utility (netctl, if my memory serves me correctly), and I tried all sorts of ways of escaping it and quoting it in the configuration file.

The Arch devs on IRC just told me to change my AP settings so that the wifi network doesn't use a password containing an ampersand character. Well, that would have been a good idea, but it wasn't my network, so I didn't have the ability to change its WPA password.

Yeah, and it's weird that he keeps insisting that games like DOOM and super meat boy wouldn't be considered art (while treating games like Gone Home and Firewatch like they've somehow betrayed the medium). I mean, if you don't consider those "gamey" games art, then why do you argue that games can be art at all? We often consider movies art based on qualities that only movies possess (acting, how it's shot) instead of pure narrative quality. So of course we can consider Super Meat Boy art, based on how well it is designed.
While Chomsky's attempt to formalize a grammar is wonderful, the probabilistic approach (based on weights) to language advocated by Norvig is, it seems, more close to what is going on inside the brain.

Brain does not perform recursive algebraic simplifications (which is, probably, the most beautiful abstraction humans have produced - fixed points, Y-Combinator, etc), it performs structure-based pattern matching - "it looks like a duck".

Natural selection, it seems, would select a crudest, good-enough model, full of cues, short-cuts and heuristics learned from environment, instead of evolving a beautiful, universal recursive meta-circular evaluator, which MIT guys are worshiping (what else there is to worship, but a beauty?!)

And, of course, mutually recursive processes (physical processes which could be abstracted out and formalized that way) are everywhere in biology. It just happen that language is a pattern matching, not an algebra, like everything else in the brain. Algebras, like numbers, does not exist outside our heads.)
I want a laptop of infinite memory, infinite disk space, battery size so big I have to charge it once a decade and that it's cost me $10. But clearly not all consumer wishes are possible. There are some tradeoffs, and one has to operate within the constraints of reality, not wishes.

> Personally I wouldn't buy a laptop that is incapable of supporting the amount of ram that I need for my "work pattern".

Clearly you've got it all figured out. Too bad not everybody can be you, otherwise we wouldn't have any tradeoffs to deal with.
How does this compare to the ongoing efforts to remove the GIL in Python? It looks like the Ruby GVL would stay, but be scoped to a Guild, rather than a Process?
We could have both if we wanted. Real math (not being a human calculator) is very creative.

How would you use this to parallelize Rails requests? I guess you would need a pool of guilds, each with its own set of controllers, etc.

Since the requests would not be in the "main" guild, it might be painful to call into gems.

Also do you mind modifying the title to say a Survival Guide to a C.S. PhD?

Absolutely everything the GP says is spot on, the C.S. PhD is really atypical amongst all the Ph.D. disciplines. E.g. the resource constraints that exist in many disciplines don't even exist in C.S. - it is almost completely the product of thought/ideas and ever cheapening computing power. I would suggest sending out your article to Ph.D. students in different disciplines, look at all the feedback, and then incorporate them if you are so inclined. The article might look quite different.

Edit: after reading the comment from pgbovine, I felt I made an unnecessary personal comment, which I omitted. I rewrote the sentence to keep the main point.
Having the same credit score, or other data, does not mean they have identical circumstances. For example, your willingness to follow the rules of society, even to your detriment, might be a result of whether society's rules have treated you fairly in the past.

So belief that you'll get different default rates given some financial data does not imply that you are a scientific racist. To create identical circumstances you'd have to do a brain swap (and some other relevant internal organs) on some black and white infants. A scientific racist view is that then the likelihood of paying off the loans would follow the brain, not the skin.
That you for your evaluation of my buying decisions! With absolutely no information except one data point about memory side you were able to conclude they were bad, this is remarkable. Has nothing to do with the point in question (that memory capabilities aren't nearly growing exponentially, not lately) but still very remarkable insight.

Ask HN: Architecturing a life
Body: I am a 23 year old living in Melbourne and doing undergrad. I also work as a freelance web designer.
I have a lot of open source projects under my belt and I am pretty good at what I do.

I will be finishing my studies in about three months. After that I am looking to find a job.

Here's the problem; I am bored of the 9-5 job cycle and don't want to work in the IT industry. I preferably want to apply my IT skills in another industry and get a job where I don't need to work 9-5 hours. Ideally this job will require travelling to new places, not necessarily to new countries but that is ok.
Money is not a big focus at the moment but it should be atleast 55-60k per annum.

Anyone who has been in this scenario, can you give me some guidance?

Cheers

Tl;dr The goal is to keep compatibility with Ruby 2. It introduces the concept of guilds and channels to send objects between guilds. The bullet points below are quoted from a couple of slides, the other text is mine:

* Guild has at least one thread (and a thread has at least one fiber)

* Threads in different guilds can run in parallel

* Threads in a same guild can not run in parallel because of GVL (or GGL: Giant Guild Lock)

A guild can't access the objects of other guilds.

About channels:

* We have Guild::Channel to communicate each other

* 2 communication methods

1. Copy

2. Transfer membership or Move in short

Copy is a deep copy and the object is duplicated into the destination guild. A transfer removes an object from a guild and makes it available to another.

There are also immutable objects that are available to all guilds. An obvious example are numbers, which are objects in Ruby, booleans and symbols. I think that other objects are frozen with https://ruby-doc.org/core-2.3.1/Object.html#method-i-freeze

They already did some encouraging benchmarks.

I knew one person who carried his phone in his pocket right-side up. When the switch happened, he was surprised to learn everyone else stores it upside down.

Then he realized why they do it, and now I know zero people who store it right-side up.

> it is more naturally of a movement to pull it out of my pocket that way.

How is that more natural than simply landing your hand on the phone in the position that it will be holding it? I'm having trouble seeing this as a matter of opinion.
You don't have to be technical for that to be undesirable behavior.
Yes, it becomes a guild global lock.

Interesting example, considering Drive had that way before Apple did.
You'd adjust the tax system to compensate for most of that.

The idea is that it reduces administration costs, eliminates poverty traps, and reduces the stigma of unemployment.

School is a waste of time for a very, very, very small part of the population. For the vast majority of people it works (surprisingly?) really well.
The key points IMHO:

1. This Ruby 3 proposal says that Ruby 2 compatibility is mission critical, therefore this proposal rejects concurrency solutions from other languages (e.g. Erlang) and concepts (e.g. functions) and data structures (e.g. immutable collections).

2 Instead the proposal is to create a fast copy-on-write with rules to "deep freeze" some kinds of objects and primitives into an immutable sharable state.
> This is the only way to not have duplicate accounts for firstlast@googlemail.com vs first.last@googlemail.com vs first.last@gmail.com .

Periods being optional in usernames is something that Gmail started, not a universal rule or part of the specification. Are you going to build into your system all the possible variations for every email provider?
Anyone correct me if I'm wrong here.

Seems like a guild is just a subprocess with its own resources. And you copy objects over as needed. And when the guild is done it will get garbage collected. Like other objects.

Drive is needlessly complex. On my laptop I have folder structures. In zip files and tarballs you have structure. You even get hierarchy in a CD.

Trying to find your way around Drive (esp. when sharing between enterprises) is a nightmare for me. Google could cement some really good mindshare if they made shared folders/docs more intuitive.

I guess you could boot up a pool of guilds in your process or better yet get generated on demand as requests are coming in, to process the request, and kill the guild off when the process is done since the request object shouldn't be shared.

It all really depends on how much overhead there is to create and destroy guilds. If it's easy then ideally you could start 100s of guilds or 1000s should your hardware allow it.

I see guilds as a subprocess with its own isolated resources.

Eureqa uses (used? I haven't touched it in years) symbolic regression. Symbolic regression can certainly produce weird results, especially with low quality data, but I wouldn't rate it anywhere near classic ANNs in black-boxiness.

I studied a reasonable amount of Shakespeare as part of my university English and Drama studies (Class of 2002). While I had a pretty damn good scholar running those courses, I didn't think there was anything unusual in the fact that he always described these as "words or phrases that were first written down by Shakespeare" rather than "invented by". Particularly when it comes to slang, words/phrases are often written down at some distance after they become commonly spoken.

Hopefully the digitisation of additional early modern and medieval works helps with etymology - always frustrating to search for something and get six competing theories, all of which seem equally specious.
The article attempts to relate several hypothetical anecdotes, informally, but is otherwise scant on actual evidence.

Here and there, are sprinkled vague nods towards unnamed "researchers" and "the new way" but not many specifics on who, when or how. Mostly it's just: Trust us, here's how it is now.

The article uses only one name, and only aims to chip away at it. It has no new celebrities, no names stepping forward to take credit for the incredible breakthroughs that destroy the old and oh-so-inferior.

The authors, and the editor are after something. But they offer nothing (or very little) in exchange, pre-supposing that it's just common sense which prevails over the tyrrany of something innately unlikable.

Not sure why linguistics ruffles some people's feathers. It's such a dry, imprecise sociological subject after all.
