> Honest question - don't the sidebar ads (on the right) on Facebook look ugly and intrusive to you (more so since they also change often)?

Not at all. I honestly don't even understand how you could think they are.

They're literally just a (static) image and a few lines of text.

Heck, I often even find Facebook ads to be inherently valuable. Most of them are for services I use and like.

The universal semimeasure is "computably approximable from below", aka (lower) semicomputable, meaning that you can computably list out all the rational numbers below a given value assigned by the measure. The probabilities assigned by a logical inductor are computably approximable reals, which (confusingly) is weaker than lower semicomputable; it just means that you can compute a sequence of rationals that converges to the real, with a possibly uncomputable convergence rate.
A value creation checklist
It rather depends. There are branches of physics (m-branes, multi-universe, some offshoots of string theory) that could possibly have answers to this, should they figure out ways to test and measure such things. They are somewhere in the realm of philosophy or mathematical conjecture until that point though.

And potentially that pushes the question back further - so where did all that come from?

I took issue with the initial post because it sounded conspiratorial, and it also sounded like there was a huge cop-out at the centrw of everything that people were trying to ignore. On the contrary - it's very interesting and it's no shame or revelation to say "we don't know yet, and we don't know if we ever will"

But what about data or privacy?

>I'm fine with ads on sites like Facebook where I know it's not going to take over my computer or launch a massive popup

The concern there would be privacy/tracking via advertisements. I readily admit that is a silly argument if one is already using Facebook. I do not have a Facebook account. I do not know when, if ever, Facebook will extend their advertisements to be used on partnered sites instead of internal-only. I can block them in advance even if I may never see them at all.

> Even with just 3 people at $10-15 each, you could sink more money into Fiverr and come out with a better logo than the predominately flat-UI only designs provided. However, Logo Pizza still has some (IMHO) great ones for sale

Maybe. But like I said, you'd have to do a TON of filtering to find someone good or get extremely lucky. Fiverr is flooded with people who only do the bare minimum to fill the request, then they'll pester you endlessly until you accept it and give them a 5 star rating.

Either that or you'll get tired of having to request countless revisions because they can't understand English and keep giving you work that's nothing like what you requested.

> Just wondering - how were you able to tell the idea was stolen from somewhere else? Simple reverse-image searching, or did you have a better procedure?

I just did exactly what I figured they would do: Googled some terms from my request and looked through the images that came up. Didn't have to look very far.
I can see how you thought I was advocating loans for only vocational degrees. Something like Computer Science I think would be fine as a job path is very clear and well paid. I can't speak for Maths of Physics because I don't know much about jobs paths from those. I was more talking about degrees that have no clear job path and which could don't need to be studied at an institution where you are largely paying for the name. If someone wants a loan to study history - fine, give them enough to study in-state or at a community college.

>> university is a place where people should go to learn about things that interest them and inspire them in the company of other like-minded people whilst simultaneously growing as an individual

The person that made this site would probably be sued if he/she sold a logo to a company that's too similar to existing work, arguably not before the company itself gets sued. Hence, for new companies it's a gamble as the legal fees could put them out of business.

Maybe there is a disclaimer somewhere on the site, but I haven't found it.

Regardless, finding out whether or not a logo that you produced (or a design studio produced) is too similar to already existing work is difficult as images cannot be as easily searched as plain-text. This is hard for design studios too.

Also, and this is speaking as a layman, but initiating such a legal affair probably requires a trademark.

You idea is so protectionist. It is like saying US should not bring in great scientist and just focus on mass producing within the county. And you wouldn't have Einstein. The point is no matter how much you try to force produce talents within your country , there will always more great talents in other parts of the world. US was great because it is the centre of the universe and all the top talents want to come here. Now it is no longer the case. Gradually, US is losing this big advantage.
> Contrary to what people on HN believe, advertising is not inherently evil. Most people are perfectly fine with ads so long as they're not invasive.

I would guess most people have this idea (in most cases illusion) that advertisers are not able to manipulate them. I do not have that illusion, and I do not like people that are manipulating me for their own benefit. I do not know if they are evil, but I think it is fair for me to try to avoid those kind of people.

The jet black ones look fantastic to me as well and I had worried a bit about durability since I've dropped, scraped and generally abused every phone I've had and I don't like cases.

I may be a bit unusual in this, but I actually want a smaller screen. Like everyone else, I want the phone to be thinner and lighter too, but I miss the days of being able to take my phone with my in my pocket when I go out running. a 4" screen at current iPhone thicknesses would be amazing. I'm not going to watch movies or write long HN comments on a phone. I just need something small that works for checking email, texting and playing me music.

Also on the topic of size, as my screen resolution keeps increasing over the years it feels like John is writing in smaller and smaller text! By changing literally nothing, he's been offering a worse and worse UX.

Why is it any economical success outside of the US is considered a problem? There is this constant capitalistic journalism need that the US must win on all fronts. Any success outside of the US "is a problem".

An electromagnetic launcher isn't the way to go not from earth, especially if you want to put people into orbit.

Forget about the energy required, forget about the electromagnetic field and what it can do the payload even non-biological one.

An electromagnetic launcher is effectively a canon, calculate the acceleration needed to achieve orbital velocity not to mention escape velocity and you'll get to a point where you can't have anything surviving the launch.
Not to mention that achieving Max-Q effectively on the launch pad is both the least effective thing you can do as well as the most dangerous one.
If the ruling party has no arresting powers and social morality closely correlates with what people actually do, why should I worry if I disagree with them? Does a former (or hell, even present) Klansman face any penalties other than social ostracism today? As long as government police power over individuals gets slowly eroded, it becomes less and less dangerous to hold an unpopular opinion, even if everyone knows about it. I'm fine with my actions and opinions being public. I'm fine with being unpopular. I'm not fine with being arrested, fined, or sued for amounts that don't scale with wealth and income, and I think that is where civil libertarians should focus their energies.

> Allowing a paper trail but not allowing digital records doesn't really benefit gun owners (Completing a 4473 would be a lot easier if they could verify that you are already a responsible gun owner)

I believe most of the gun rights people are of the opinion that digital records would enable a large database of the location and type of guns and the identity of their owners. A database which they believe can be used as a tool in the event government policy shifts towards confiscation of certain firearms rather than forward looking sale or manufacturing prohibitions.

I fully agree the strategy is unreliable.

But, for rapid development of prototype, or early stage products, I could see a few $15 injections going a much farther way than abandoning a project and having dropped $299 or even more into a 99Designs (or 'higher-end') logo[0].

I would always double back and get a more professional looking design that is also coherent with the Web App look & feel or product page look & feel.

It is very clear that the US is no longer the top in many areas, and is slipping fast. The USA is actively rearranging the deck chairs in what is going to be a monumental Titanic the rest of the world will enjoy watching sink. As a "leader nation" we've been deplorable in many of the aspects that matter. Few outside the USA will shed many tears, as we've been ruthless towards other nations not subservient to our corporations. Yeah, we do just enough good to pass, and not much more, and then only when it serves our corporate masters.

Government /reach/ tends to go up, but government /repressiveness/ tends to go down. The trend is towards a state that is everyone but coerces little.
This is right, but perhaps misleading; most of the properties are "asymptotic", meaning that they may take an extremely long time to hold, but they hold at finite times. For example, "provability induction" says that if you have a (polytime computable) sequence of sentences phi_n, all of which happen to be provable (possibly with fast-growing proof lengths), then P_n(phi_n) limits to 1. This means that on day n the logical inductor P is confident of phi_n, even though phi_n may take much longer than n steps to prove.
I think that their claim that the country is losing more and more talent is realistic. I am one those who weighted going to this country to establish my company, but after a failure to find an acceptable immigration option, I went to the UK instead.

I think that what's lacking in the american system is the recognition of "normal" entrepreneurs, those making $200 dollars at a time, and growing their high-potential tech-product business from $0 to $1M in 5 years. In the UK, and in most places in Europe, an immigrant can take a job, change job, build a business on the side, and then manage the business full-time. In the american system, this is not possible :

- If you come as a worker you are stuck in the H1B system where changing employer is a pain, starting a company requires sophisticated immigration layers, and the path to the green card often takes one decade or more - which entrepreneur with a burning idea in his mind would accept that ?

- Otherwise, coming as an entrepreneur directly, requires $$$ which young people with creativity and energy simply do not have yet.

The american system works fine as soon as you are backed by venture capital but is at present time not very welcoming for creative and talented people without deep pockets. This lack of exhaustivity is the issue. As far as I am concerned, I've been successful in the UK and am setting up an operation in the US now that I have the dollars. However I have decided to keep my headquarters and the bulk of my operations in the UK. Therefore I totally understand the feelings of the people quoted in the article who applied for a US visa a few years ago and are today saying "Why would I even go there ?"

The US should really not underestimate the long-term destructive potential of this phenomenon.

This situation is a dramatic departure from the original immigration spirit of the US which used to welcome creative immigrants with $0 in their pockets dreaming of success. These people were largely influential in building the wealthy nation we know today but the country seems to be kind of losing what made them great in the first place. Perhaps this is the time to Make America Great Again.

Using a mass driver to launch, if youkeep the G forces down to the levels NASA wants I think you need something like 100 miles of track?

You can build them much shorter, but they could never be used to launch living cargo. My guess would be that we'll see more investment in them once we have a big rocket (BFR/New Armstrong) capable of launching larger habitation units into higher orbits. Once you have more than 10 humans living up there you start having to think about how to supply them, and then a rail gun looks pretty good, but in the meantime we need to be able to lift large (dimension) things as well as humans, and rockets are actually a pretty good choice for that.
You're headed in the right direction, but your characterization isn't accurate. Strictly speaking, Socrates wasn't trolling the sophists so much as drawing attention to their manipulative practices. The sophists weren't infamous for employing rhetoric, but rather sophistry and eristic. Here, rhetoric is to sophistry what polemic is to eristic.

Where rhetoric is an art that emphasizes logical, sound, effective and clear communication for the purpose of persuading someone of a position that the rhetor believes to be true, the sophist employs fallacies, flattery and other methods of appeal to manipulate someone into accepting a position, regardless of the truth of that position, for other ends. The highest value for the sophist was oratory excellence and skillful use of language, not the attainment of truth. Analogously, the polemicist aims to dispute a position, but he does so while maintaining the same ethos as the rhetor, i.e., by attacking what he deems to be false for the sake of the truth. The eristic, on the other hand, shares the ethos of the sophist, i.e., he is unconcerned with the truth and aims only dispute for some other end. Josef Pieper's puts it well in his essay "Abuse of Language, Abuse of Power" when he says that when language is disconnected from truth, it becomes an instrument of power.

Both rhetoric and polemic are useful during intellectual exchanges. Indeed, the most successful philosophical arguments often consist of disputation of a previously stated position, followed by argumentation in favor of another position and here both rhetoric and polemic may be used.

I was rather annoyed by what appears to be the author's ignorance of these ancient arts.
