Given that this heuristic would have evolved when humans had a much shorter expected lifespan, I expect there would be a very large market for neuroplasticity enhancing drugs that also increase one's effective epsilon factor.
> Netflix has zero regards for the deaf overseas, in the US it's pretty good though.

Sure, because the National Association for the Deaf sued them to get them to do it. [0] It's an important case for online businesses because the judge concluded that the ADA applies to them, too (which is sort of on obvious conclusion but it hadn't be tested in court).

Captions already existed for the large majority of TV shows and movies Netflix was licensing, they just needed to get them from the studios though may have needed to be recreated if they weren't saved in text form, DVD and Blu-ray captions are stored as images on the discs. Of course for their original programming they would need to have them created, for a ballpark figure of $2/minute of content.

Outside the U.S., I assume it depends on what captions already exist and what local laws require.

Luu says regarding the Little Book of Semaphores:

"If I’m writing grungy low-level threading
code today, I’m overwhelmingly like to
be using c++11 threading primitives, so
I’d like something that uses those instead
of semaphores,"

But as someone whose lowest-level experience of concurrency is with APIs similar to the C++ primitives (which are not that different from pthreads), I disagree. I found it a real eye-opener to see how all this can be broken down to semaphores.

I am starting to think that a semaphore-only set of primtives would be easier to reason about. I've seen better coders than me make over-complicated mutex based solutions when sempahores gave a simple answer. And I bet I've done it too.
Nixon proposed universal health care 45 years ago.

Although some said he made anti-Semitic statements, he employed a Jewish Secretary of State, Kissinger who basically ran the international part of the presidency when Nixon was in the later states of the Watergate Investigation.

Over the advice of Defense and other advisors, he insisted on fully rearming a desperate Israel with a very, very impressive airlift during the Yom Kippur War (1973) when Israel was surprise attacked by Egypt and Syria on Yom Kippur.
I'd suggest we start thinking about a new type of business which is funded for performance instead of profitability. Like a utility, the Intercloud is a shared resource that needs to justify it's existence in connecting and processing data in our reality. Traditional business models corrupt this end goal to serve all of us equally and without exploitation.

One possible solution is the creation of a new type of corporate infrastructure entity that is disconnected from our current financial models. It should prevent outside investment or intent to create profit to keep those models from infecting it.

Also, I would point out that infrastructure can be centralized, decentralized and distributed. Whatever we end up with will likely be a combination of all three.
The old fashioned way: by providing a service.

Here is an example. We'll assume an imaginary decentralized communication platform. Alice wants to chat with Baozhai. Alice speaks English, Baozhai speaks Mandarin. They connect and chat (in their own language). Each capability here, identity, presence, and translation is provided by service providers. Alice and Baozhai have paid for these services.
At least in Germany every single house or apartment has an electric connection with a power output of at least 120A/380V (you're always connected to all 3 phases). Hooking up an 25A/380V plug shouldn't be a big deal.

This resonates with my latest experience. I am working on a 3D game simulation and I have two player entities (Batter/Pitcher) who run on the ground. The running is done between to predefined control points/nodes in the scene graph which in turn is converted into a path. Every frame update I get the current location and move to the next location.

// func buildPath(pathName): // builds a path between start and end control nodes fetched from the scene graph

// func updateFrame(timeElapsed): // gets current location and move to next location using timeElapsed

Now both these functions are not too big, but not too small either. However a reviewer mentioned I should split and I refused because they don one thing and do it succinctly.

This useless dumb fascination with test practices and being rigid about it, causes grief, both for the code and the coder!!!

Also keep in mind that javascript engines have a built-in mechanism for including multi-line strings with a powerful substitution engine: tagged template strings (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe...). The upside of template strings is that you can run your code directly in node or electron without using extra tooling first. It is possible and not hard to use tagged templates with react, although few people do. It's more common in some other frontend ecosystems.
Also a current PhD student, and I've definitely found myself frustrated with the way that academia seems to be at odds with my desire to work on the things that I think are not only the most interesting but the most important. I look around and see the profs working on so many projects that just seem so small and limited. I'm in psych and we have a problem where dozens of people are running competing/overlapping experiments that are all critically underpowered and/or divided into least publishable chunks with little thought to broader importance or applicability.

The whole situation really makes me want to ultimately do my research outside of the establishment, but I recognize that collaborations and publications are a key part of credible science. In order to do that I figure that I will need a platform for recruiting participants and conducting experiments for the kind of research that I would want to do. Ideally the platform would be compelling enough to bring in researchers in academia (or elsewhere). So I'm working on that platform. That's the programming project that brought me to HN.

I filled out your questionnaire. Not sure if my project is related to your frustrations, but it seems somewhat close. Either way I share your pain.

Regardless of our inflation-positive zero-rate economy that caters to the investing class, I think people will do what they want. Obviously a decentralized internet will not be for everyone but the same can be said for democratic societies.

The desire for a decentralized and encrypted internet grows with every new data-cap by ISP's and every illegal surveillance scandal carried out by governments. The people find no recourse in their established authorities and will seek to their own devices for security.

I mean, on the one hand, you have a lot of women who tell the same sort of story, and I trust people until I have an actual (not hypothetical) reason to assume they're lying.

On the other hand, you have the guy who brags about dishonest business practices and lies (and this is all on video) about his past statements. Trump has given me lots of reasons not to trust him. Starting now to trust him, because women are involved, that doesn't make sense to me.
I would go even further. Look at history of art - most artists were just alcoholic bums, such as Verlaine. We would be better off as a society if we made those people more productive than writing poetry, for example, they could be soldiers.

I'm pretty sure they've been going after the mapping people both because those guys add a ridiculous load to the map servers, and because eventually people are going to start asking serious questions about why all of two cities have varying spawn areas for Pokemon, and the rest of the world put together has about as much detail as those two cities.

If you're not in San Francisco or New York, sadly, your most efficient method of "catching them all" is to simply sit and camp lures, because what doesn't spawn from that isn't going to spawn anywhere nearby so there's little point in searching. Flogging an RNG endlessly is _not fun_, and that's apparently a heavy player in what's driving players away from the game.

In my simple way of understanding this, then, is that libertarians are un-developed democrats. They think Democrats are "wrong" because of what they are, but when you extend this line of thought for many, many many years, you find yourself a democrat. Democrats can be easily criticized for overthinking bathroom rights, but doesn't that argument boil down to freedoms of the oppressed transgendered person? Freedom for the many oppressing the freedoms of the few.

Too many climate laws, too many laws protecting groundwater? How would this Libertarian definition fit those? The freedoms of the individuals in the town that has a giant polluting factory. Now that town needs laws to make the factory safer.

How about gun laws? Libertarians might suggest more "freedoms" with respect to gun availability,... many years later, revealing that more guns available actually means more deaths => freedom lost for the dead? Now they're a democrat too...

How's this definition different than democrat?

I'm just asking, because reading this mini-thread I'm lost here.

I have a few hypothesizes about this.

1. Decentralization won in 1970 - 2005 protocol design because reliable computers were very expensive. It was economically advantageous to have a decentralized network of unreliable computers than centralized unreliable protocols. Reliable compute has now become commoditized by the cloud services. This creates a pressure for centralization.

2. Decentralized protocols have not aged well(TCP/IP, SMTP), have deep security flaws and have proven difficult to upgrade. This has created new centralization pressures to cope with the security flaws(Gmail, Cloudflare)

3. There continue to be pressures for decentralization related to both politics and security pressures. Tor and blockchain cryptocurrencies are excellent examples of these. But decentralization is unlikely to extend all the way to edge devices and instead operate in a federated fashion.

Wikipedia has a nice list [0]. In German pseudo-anglicisms are an often used method of word formation, e.g: Beamer (projector), No-Go (faux pas), Handy (mobile phone), Oldtimer (classic car), Streetworker, Barkeeper and (brand new) Shitstorm, etc. There are also pseudo-gallicisms in use (like "Blamage" for disgrace, or "Friseur" for coiffeur). Fun stuff.

The very approximate rule of thumb is that purchasing is economically preferable to renting if you're planning to live in that location for more than 4 or 5 years.

I'm not sure how you figure that owning a car is related to raising children. If I had to guess, I would say you lived in a very dense urban environment. Your statement just seems kind of insane anywhere else.

Given that I have interests outside of work, I don't actually want to live within three minutes of my workplace if there's more fun to be had living farther away.

Based on the wording of your last paragraph, it sounds like you may not actually have a good argument for wearing nice clothes, and are just advocating it because that's what you see other people doing. The reason I try to dress nicely is that it's cheap psychological hack. For whatever reason, most people, including myself to some degree, have some sort of innate bias towards people who look well dressed. This could be because it correlates with social status, or wealth, or any other number of factors, but regardless of why it's the case, it's a very cheap way to buy social credit. It's up to you whether or not this increase in social credit is worth the financial and comfort cost of wearing nice clothes.

I love contemplation, and create physical busywork for myself so that I can do it. But that's slacking. To do real intellectual work I need to stop and use pen and paper, or maybe a computer.

Even if contemplation is enough, most "manual" jobs require you to use your brain. Not necessarily in an interseting way, but enough to distract you from contemplation. It can't all be moving heavy objects from one pile to another.

Becoming an astute businessman :)
You'd be surprised how little weight hard work carries relative to positive attitude coupled with an acceptable amount of work (former manager here).

Performance reviews aren't usually that objective. If you're getting dinged, it might be a problem with your attitude vs your performance. It's unfair, but you're working with humans, not vulcans.

Said another way: If management likes you personally, and you work hard enough, you're not going to get bad performance reviews.

If this coworker is a ball hog, that's a different story, and management will pick up on it over time. The best thing you can do in the meantime is worry about your own output and do good work with people who do want to work with you.

In my experience, workers send emails late at night to explicitly demonstrate that they work more than others. I believe that it's unhealthy and it's pretty clear that it's not correlated to work quality.

This may be due to any number of reasons – from proving false a manager claiming that they don't work to impostor syndrome to office politics to actually compensating that they don't really work – but that's probably something you want to address directly with the mate. That's also a reason for which a number of places/teams I've worked at/with tend to normalize reports to once per day or once per week. That and the fact that managers just can't cope with twenty reports per night.

You also want to address the issue with the manager and make sure that you are not judged by number of emails but rather by actual impact. If that fails, you're probably working in the wrong place.

P.S.: When I write "in my experience", I've been the "worker who sends emails at all hours of night", in my case because of an abusive manager and an ongoing burnout.
