Does "returns to capital in the form of ownership of companies" mean "returns to capital on stocks and equities"? I'm confused because returns on equities certainly haven't been flat.

I prefer 9 hrs if I can, scales down to 6 during stressful periods but if I do less than 6 for a while it becomes a real problem. Hours are all over the place, this summer I was sleeping midnight to 7:30, right now I'm 3a to 11/12
To jump into a really interesting discussion: I totally get what the both of you are saying, but I think that the real problem are poor abstractions. In some sense SQL is code generation since it's a declarative way of describing what you want which the query planner figures out how to realize. At least to me, it's rarely a source of frustration. Why? Because it's a sound, proven abstraction based on a very solid foundation. In the frameworks that figure in this discussion, there's no such thing, and all the abstractions I've seen are leaky under some scenario.

That makes me prefer minimal, magic-free tools, because even if it's sometimes a source of extra effort, at least I won't have to spend time fighting the framework. The fear of boilerplate seems strange to me. I'd much rather spend the extra ten seconds of adding a route manually through a line of code than no time at all if it spares me having to spend an hour figuring out why my ContextProvider isn't being registered by the classpath scanner.
I don't think there's been anything on that scale (if you were too young to appreciate 9/11). I knew some folks who lost everything in 2008, but it wasn't everyone.
It "WILL NOT WORK" because we need to use additional information for scheduling against a PV that uses local data. That work isn't done because we are still trying to find the right balance of API for local vs durable.

It HAPPENS to work in a single node cluster because the scheduler doesn't have a whole lot of wiggle room to do the wrong thing :)

> but 3pm is certainly well within "core hours" of a normal working day, and 5am certainly isn't.

So I get that, but how else can I approach the situation when I have to leave the office at 3pm in order to get to the daycare in time? I'm not truly expecting the rest of the world to adopt my schedule, but the reason I start working at 4 is precisely to compensate for not being available in the late afternoon. If anything I'm over-compensating because as I said, I usually end up working 11 hours a day.

It's sad that people who stay late are routinely lauded as committed heroes, but I get no points for getting 5 or 6 hours of solid work done before most of the company even gets started!

Again, I understand that 9-6 (used to be 9-5) is conventional core hours, so how can I defray negative perceptions when I'm physically unable to join meetings or respond to slack messages? Seriously I would love some advice on how to handle this, it's highly stressful and I'm always coming off sounding defensive :(
To expand on the topic anecdotally, my parents still watch TV and all its ad-laden glory for the local news. Sure, there's DNA info, but for whatever reason it still doesn't replace a local broadcaster - maybe it's just habit?

There's no guarantee they won't interfere with and nullify each other. For instance, one team lands a big ion thruster on the rocket to push it out of the way. The next detonates a nuke next to it. They screwed up the positioning so it didn't deflect the asteroid enough, but did wreck the ion engine. Oops.

I might as well shovel on my very negative experience, I want to switch but no one can make hardware like this... PLEASE someone prove me wrong with a link.

GOOD:
- screen is amazingly bright and fantastic.

- sound noticeably better, even using the same headphones which does not make any sense, so I think that has got to be placebo?

The Horribleness:
- the mouse touch pad is so big on my 15" that my new default hand position on home has to hover and hands angled down and in. i'm resting like a few inches below my wrist on the edge of the machine, which is actually pretty sharp. If I go back to a better more relaxed home position my palms touch the touch pad randomly and when typing it jumps and clicks all around.

- I think Apple's dedication to security is mostly to blame.

1) went to apple store, they didn't have cases when the announced at end of Oct right?

2) had to get a usb c to usb female to use my external drives. The store only had usb 2.0 not 2.1, so my hd is half as fast as 3 year old laptop

3) - For instance did OS look at the machine? To turn down sound, I have to touch bar. In some apps it has the normal three sounds buttons. In finder it doesn't and I've found some other times when I'm working and listening to music and need to turn it down it sucks: the touchbar might not even be lit, so that's one touch. Then you can either touch mute or what looks like lower volume, which actually opens a slider two inches to the left. The slider seems to be 0-100 but on screen it's the same old sound overlay with 15 clicks or whatever, and I can definitely move volume in between the clicks. Also while I was type that sentence both numbers accidentally hit the touch bar and did weird shit.

4) could go on and on, ESP the iphone thing. I get wireless is the future but come on...

5) I will never enable siri or the finger print. i was able to remove siri on finder, but it still pops up in the right for most other apps who haven't made integrations yet.

6) os seems to sleep or hibernate but then when logging in it refreshes all the apps? like all 20 chrome tabs reload? maybe there's some setting I don't have but that has never happened and is very annoying. And 1/10 times I miss backspace it hits siri or whatever shit is on the bar.

7) no space above up and down key is the WORST. gamers are fucked. even my career using photoshop and writing shit is slowed down until I get muscle memory.

In the past everything has been so seamless, ready to go. But I think Apple is more concerned about a leak about the new millimeter they shaved off than get everyone working on the same team and actually using this product, with os, with iphone.

(plus these keys are really loud when you type somewhat fast, to the annoyance of my boyfriend trying to sleep next to me).

I can't WAIT until we get fast enough reliable internet everywhere so I can just stream a VPC in Amazon. Spin up a few Teslas when crunching a huge ML dataset or video project, no need to upgrade. AND Apple could do away with everything! So thin! Or quadruple the battery! That's the future I want, even if Apple controls the DC and my VPC.

I'm a self-taught developer who only practiced memory-safe languages before and I never dared trying C because of its reputation of being too difficult. Rust taught me a lot of things about system programming I never though I will learn one day.

A big thank you to the whole Rust team for that !

I'm not sure the syntax extension specific items are good if the intent is to present this as an argument for moving to Rust from some other language for building such a framework. I'm a bit biased: I'd avoid using syntax extensions that aren't part of the standard, because it adds a point of friction for novice and seasoned Rust developers alike.
I've been using the Eight "smart" mattress cover to track my sleeping patterns. I average about 9 hours of sleep.

> I'm at a total loss for why I really care about this major part of their message (type safety).

Honestly, you might not care about type safety. It depends a lot on the kinds of programs you write.

In general, a language with a good type system[1] brings several major advantages to the table:

1. If your program compiles, there's typically a 90% chance it will work correctly on the first try, even if you just changed hundreds of lines of code.

2. Big refactorings are much less stressful.

3. Emacs or Visual Studio Code (for example) can provide pop-up completions of names and methods.

4. Problems like mysterious nulls or data races can be prevented almost entirely at compile time.

One big downside is that it gets harder to do certain kinds of (runtime) metaprogramming and you need to use macros to get similar effects.

At this point, having worked professionally with Rust, I would recommend Rust to people who are really enthusiastic about the above benefits. But if you look at that list and say, "Meh, not worth it," then you might not want to adopt a younger language like Rust. Well, unless you need to get reasonably close to the metal without sacrificing safety, which is where Rust really shines. I just wrote a fast CSV sanitizer in Rust for processing gigabytes of input, and the compiler caught a subtle memory error when one CSV line spanned two buffer reads.

[1] For the sake of argument, a "good" type system in this context includes the ability to define custom collections with type parameters, it only allows NULL to appear where explicitly permitted, and it supports tagged unions with a nice "match" construct. This seems to be roughly the minimum feature set to get the full effect described above. Examples include Haskell, Elm, Rust, ML and (to a surprising extent) TypeScript.
icantdrive55, you appear [dead]. (Does that mean that I'm dead, or you're dead? I don't know.)

Anyway, your story is very similar to one of my experiences. I had a medical issue. So, I found a specialist from one of those "top specialist in your metro area" lists. I scheduled an appointment, waited a few months, went to the appointment, and I had one of the worst service experiences ever. I posted a review that explained my expectations and experience just to warn others. I was quickly contacted by the doctor's lawyers (even though I had posted the review 'anonymously') and extorted into altering the review.

9pm to 4am for me, I'm the first to the office (on our team at least) by about two hours. I leave at 3pm to get the first kid from daycare, then head home and walk over to the school to get the second kid. After that it's 100% family time until I fall into bed. And like you, early morning is my most productive time at work by far. Fortunately my manager and team are totally okay with my hours. I haven't rescheduled any meetings for 5am but I do refuse anything that starts after 2pm and it hasn't been much of a hassle. We also have part of our team in Hyderabad so being in the office early actually works out kinds nice because if I need to I have overlap time with them (they habitually work later hours than we do -- when I was down there visiting, if I got in the office before 10am I'd be the first guy from our team).

Amazon Has Go. Now What?
Thanks for the reply. 1 and 3 should be solvable by talking to potential customers in the market, while I guess 2 is a pragmatic choice based on time.

I do a bit of angel investing and I have found far more value talking to non-customers in the target market than to actual customers. My experience is many startups end up creating a product too focused on the specific needs of their current customers at the expense of future customers. I prefer to invest in a startup that has built a product that I think has general appeal in the market and zero customers than one that has a few customers and a product that has lost some of its general appeal. These startups are also way cheaper which covers a lot of mistakes by me.

The only downside is you have to vet more companies, but this approach has got me access to some rather good startups that I would not have had a chance once they had traction.

Presumably the people who invest in hedge funds are intelligent, knowledgeable people who can understand these fees. The examples in the article don't require more than school-level maths.

So why is there no demand (and ~hence supply) for "fairer" or more-aligned incentives? There must be a price (in management fees) which would eliminate the reward for losing against the market. In which case, is this article complaining about something that is not widely seen as a problem?

Official Apple comment:

The two right-hand ports deliver Thunderbolt 3 functionality, but have reduced PCI Express bandwidth [1]

The full Thunderbolt 3 speed is 40MBPs (use the left-side ports to achieve that).

I can't find any official document which clearly states the speed of the reduced-functionality ports, but Apple also state this:

All late-2016 MacBook Pro models deliver USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) performance on all Thunderbolt 3 ports [1]

So there may be a 4x speed differential, depending which port you plug into.

Of course, the actual solution to that is to build a society and culture in which men take as much of a role in raising their children - and yes, that means making sacrifices re their work - as women do. Otherwise, we're still clinging onto the old concept of the man being the breadwinner and the woman looking after the children, just in a new age where it's not economically possible to raise children on one wage alone, and that's bound to cause issues as we see in that article.
I kind of hate that blog. They make fun of things for basically being slightly tacky. A lot of the criticism feels like it's just 'Stop Having Fun' Guy. (The heating bills for mcmansions are another story, but that's unrelated to the criticism.)

Didn't we pass some legislation a while back which cut back significantly on the amount of 'pork' allowed in a bill?

It might be a function of being in a position to effect things that far in the future, or thinking that far in the future will matter that much.

People love to armchair quarterback federal politics and long term plans that might effect the future.

In this case, "they" are the "USB Implementors Forum (USB-IF)" [1], rather than Apple. It's the USB-IF who agreed the standardisation of spec, but permitted the potential for "alternative mode".

Apple might have taken advantage of it, but it's the USB-IF who decided to make the standard rather more variable.

Yes, because function calls are much easier to trace down than special syntax.
In this specific case, yes those particularly would be an example.

This was covered in my undergraduate (second-year) SR course.

Curious why they used IP cameras, my guess is it had less to do with science and more to do with who they are.

Reason I point this out, notice how blocky the images in general are, especially with lower light? Take any prosumer/pro digital camera of the same resolution and you'll get significantly better results, especially at 1 lux.

To reword the title to be a lot more accurate, "the resolving power of the human eye is roughly equivalent to a 10MP IP camera in a well lit room". Definitely wordier and less click baity, but accurate to the "analysis" they did.
