This is illogical. There are at least two possible explanations for your evidence. These are: One, that as you say, taking more personal responsibility is ineffective. Two, that taking personal responsibility is effective but modern society is failing to do so. Which of these is correct is up for debate but it's hardly a foregone conclusion.

American embargo was put in place because the US can't afford communist fools on its border. Simple. You swing at the big guy and you lose. That is war. Mistakes are unforgivable.

Thanks for explaining that, it makes sense. I ended up writing my own Color struct to store the values in HSB like you suggest.

It's odd I couldn't find information about this anywhere. The NSColor/UIColor docs don't mention it, but there is a clue I guess. They note that NSColor/UIColor is stored as CGColor internally, and CGColor doesn't have an HSB init.

Thanks again, I searched everywhere for the answer to this.

This paragraph is a good summary of the content of the authors own perspective on news, and verification of "fake news".

>Snopes, which uses human editors for fact checking, does a good job, but they can’t find every fake news story. Still, when a reputable fact-checking organization like Snopes or Politifact identifies a story as false, that’s a pretty good sign. And in fact, the fake news story has been taken down on Facebook, presumably in response.
Hey, you're right!

Revenue growth with corresponding increases in costs and expenses. NOT getting closer to profitability, in fact operating losses are increasing in proportion to revenue (almost a linear relationship in every quarter and year in the reports).

Again, this is a failing business. 12 years in and no profit, profit not within reach, costs growing in lockstep with revenues.

EDIT:

So I was curious how they had such high revenues when clearly subscription fees can't account for it. Found this in the financial statement:

"We principally generate merchant
solutions revenues from payment processing fees from Shopify Payments. Shopify Payments is a fully integrated payment processing service that allows our
merchants to accept and process payment cards online and offline. As a result of the launch of Shopify Payments in August 2013, we have seen significant growth
in the revenues generated from our merchant solutions. In addition to payment processing fees from Shopify Payments, we also generate merchant solutions
revenue from transaction fees, Shopify Shipping, Shopify Capital, referral fees from partners, and sales of point-of-sale ("POS") hardware. Our merchant solutions
revenues are directionally correlated with the level of GMV that our merchants process through our platform. Merchant solutions revenues increased from $34.5
million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 , to $77.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016 , representing an increase of 123.4%"

So they are counting CC processing fees towards revenues. I suspect that CC payment processing fees shopify pays are approximately equal to what they are charging, so this is just a revenue game where they charge 3% to customers, pay almost 3% to the CC companies, and book revenue that can never be profitable.

EDIT2:
So found the cashflow in the statement. They charged $76M for these fees, and paid out $56M. Not bad actually! However, that $20M in net is still much lower than the costs to generate the business, $56M just in marketing.

I know that in geopolitics, there are no good guys, that each nation acts in their own self-interest.

At what point does one abandon the lexer model? If you have 13 different lexer modes, why not just encode those as part of the recursive decent parser and act directly on characters?

I'm not a parser/pl person, but my view of lexing is that it only really buys you something if your lexer is sufficiently separate from your parse; once you have to tokenize things differently depending on where you are in the parse tree, it is just an extra layer of abstraction that fails to clarify the code.

(1) That these have been problems plaguing mankind since the creation of society and (2) that this solution has been promulgated since ancient times (through various bibles for one) contradicts your above statement. If you preach and scream about personal responsibility and nothing changes, it has failed as a policy no matter who you want to place the blame on.

I'm not sure what you're saying, but I'm very likely to live in a city older than yours. Buildings hundreds of years old are castles, churches or a limited number of inner city monuments. They are very hard to live in, let alone live comfortably in; they are very expensive to retrofit and in general nice to look at but a pain to live or work in.

Buildings 200 to 100 years old are more common, but still suffer from many defects; unless renovated in a way that is essentially 'build a new house inside the old one'. Which is more expensive than knocking the old one down.

Anything less than 100 years but older than say 20 can be made to 'modern' standards, for some values of 'modern'. It won't be nearly as comfortable as a new house though, again unless renovated the expensive way.

Housing needs change. If you think we Europeans build for 100+ year use, you obviously know nothing about real estate or construction, and the history thereof. If you think the fact that we have a bunch of old buildings is because they were designed that way, you are very mistaken.
>There are vast numbers of people who cannot make an economic contribution large enough to cover their costs.

"Economic contribution" is hardly a factor if you discuss morality.

I'm nowhere as accomplished as the original author but let me try adding a few other tips.

Plan on spending a lot of hours learning/practicing/tinkering to explore and pickup new tech skills, OUTSIDE of your normal work hours. If you think you want 9-5, Mon-Fri job, don't get into this. You won't last. Whatever task you do will be automated or given to younger (aka cheaper) worker eventually. Or the technology you use will become obsolete. Maybe you can last more than a decade, but your compensation will not seem like a tech worker.

Basically, plan on being in a self-paced vocational school every few years.

A HN poster mentioned few months ago he was able get to the position of a CTO by virtually having 2 full time jobs through out his career. One was his normal 40hr/week job. The other job was also 40hr/week, but unpaid as he just about spent that much time learning new tech skills.

We are talking about Fidel's regime and how he decided to rule. Batista was an evil man and a bad ruler, but the economic and societal destruction of communism is in its own category, as is the level of totalitarian control that the Castro regime has imposed, which includes a committee in each neighborhood responsible for suppressing dissent. Because of how backwards Cuba is today, everyone thinks it was always like that. Cuba was a country with a rapidly expanding middle class.
granted :) my mistake, overlooked that possibility
Here are some points of propaganda:

> Fidel does not allow his people to leave, with the threat of punishment.

Everybody is (now) free to leave Cuba. But OK, I think that's fairly recent.

> Fidel's private Army own's 85% of the economy

"Fidel's private Army" is just an ugly sound byte. It's the Cuban army and it's not going to be dissolved now that he's dead.

> Cuban's live in relative poverty

While poverty is a problem, it's not a Cuban problem. For instance, Americans also live in poverty (at least 45 millions of them)

On the other side, western propaganda blanks out a lot of facts about Cuba. Among those is the fact that a significant percentage of Cubans approve their government.

*no red tape

Those three words are where things get complicated. In a general sense red tape is the difference between a laissez faire economy and a free market economy, if you mean government regulation when you say red tape. Though by red tape you might also mean anti-competitve regulations implemented at the behest of a firm or sector of the economy. In that case it is still very important to acknowledge that free markets are not a natural state, and require regulation of some form to remain functional or even exist.
Obviously this is biased towards older books, because simply books that have been around for a long time can be mentioned.

Let me get across a book with unusual conclusions that deserves to be known more.

"The Ghosts Of Evolution: Nonsensical Fruit, Missing Partners, and Other Ecological Anachronisms"

https://www.amazon.com/Ghosts-Evolution-Nonsensical-Ecologic...

"A new vision is sweeping through ecological science: The dense web of dependencies that makes up an ecosystem has gained an added dimension-the dimension of time. Every field, forest, and park is full of living organisms adapted for relationships with creatures that are now extinct. In a vivid narrative, Connie Barlow shows how the idea of "missing partners" in nature evolved from isolated, curious examples into an idea that is transforming how ecologists understand the entire flora and fauna of the Americas. This fascinating book will enrich the experience of any amateur naturalist, as well as teach us that the ripples of biodiversity loss around us are just the leading edge of what may well become perilous cascades of extinction."

But then we would need to do a different job to get the money to get by.
Oops, not so fast, there is growing evidence that food addiction is equivalent to opioid addiction which requires a rather large effort and support team to help anyone to "get off the drug".

Some studies have shown addiction to sugar, fat, and overeating. Addiction at both the chemical and also mental level.

You may say that getting off drugs is also a self control issue, but that is a little bit of an over simplification.

A small bit of googling found these results and there seemed to be a lot of results on this topic.

-----

According to researchers from Queensland University of Technology (QUT), excessive sugar consumption increases the dopamine levels in a similar way to other drugs such as cocaine.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/sugar-has-similar-...

The evidence supports the hypothesis that under certain circumstances rats can become sugar dependent. This may translate to some human conditions as suggested by the literature on eating disorders and obesity.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2235907/

We propose that specific foods, especially those that are rich in fat and/or sugar, are capable of promoting “addiction”-like behavior and neuronal change under certain conditions.

Such consummatory patterns have been associated with increased risk for comorbid conditions such as obesity, early weight gain, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse as well as with relapse and treatment challenges. The topic of food addiction bears study, therefore, to develop fresh approaches to clinical intervention and to advance our understanding of basic mechanisms involved in loss of control.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2714380/

The YFAS
exhibited adequate internal reliability, and showed good convergent validity with measures of similar
constructs and good discriminant validity relative to related but dissimilar constructs. Additionally, the
YFAS predicted binge-eating behavior above and beyond existing measures of eating pathology, demonstrating incremental validity. The YFAS is a sound tool for identifying eating patterns that are similar to behaviors seen in classic areas of addiction. Further evaluation of the scale is needed, especially due to a low response rate of 24.5% and a non-clinical sample, but confirmation of the reliability and
validity of the scale has the potential to facilitate empirical research on the concept of ‘‘food addiction’’

Yes. Because - assuming you keep the paper ballots around somewhere - someone 2000 miles away can't manipulate what those paper ballots say.
Paper ballots allow for auditing, which is objectively more verifiable than voting via direct-record electronic voting machines.
In Wisconsin, the counties that used paper ballots tended to be less white and better educated.

The linked article says that all counties in Wisconsin use paper ballots, and thus the claim that there is a difference between counties that use paper ballots and other counties "cannot be true". Are you disputing this, or did you perhaps mean to say Pennsylvania instead of Wisconsin?

I'm trying to say that while uses change that building is "effort" and if you're going to do it you should do it with the assumption that it will last.

Re-purposing old buildings is very common in the UK, and whilst sometimes that might mean essentially ripping it all out and rebuilding form the inside-out that's an extreme case. When it comes to "public buildings" and "houses" that people live in mostly the changes aren't so drastic.

I'm sure that people putting up buildings in the 1600s didn't imagine they would still be in use, but the fact that they are is a good thing. What I'm really trying to say is that planning to build something with the assumption it'll be dead/useless/retired in a hundred years seems wasteful and short-sighted. Europe is used as an example of how things have turned out otherwise. Though I appreciate there aren't any skyscrapers/tower-blocks of that age in the world. Unless you think of tenement buildings from the 17/18/1900s.
