1. Then you may limit the economical benefit of the whole thing:
people may not just consume using free money but may use it to small investments, produce something etc... Creative usage of money requires flexibility.

2. Secondary market will come: You either criminalize it then it will cost a lot, or not and you just give part of the money to the money changers for a service that could have been easily avoided.
So 60% of economists disagree, and only 2% agree, with a proposal that would eliminate Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid etc, and this is somehow them "going after" these programs? What are you talking about? They are very broadly against this proposal!

Distributing Python Packages Part II: Submitting to PyPI
And not just why isn't there something that links legislative citations together, but why isn't there something that can tell laypeople what is current legislation and what isn't? In the UK, we have numerous acts of the same name but different years. If I find some information about a slightly obscure issue of concern - say, a website that's ten years old - it might cite an act of a particular year - and I then look up the details of that legislation, I can see it, but I've no idea if or how it currently applies, it it's been superseded by newer legislation etc; it might even just be a list of 'edits' to previous legislation that aren't easily researched by someone without a formal understanding of law.

The common response to this has usually been "that's why you need s [jurist]", but I take issue with the idea that the legislation that applies equally to us should only be understood by those equipped with the means to make sense of it.

"have predicted"

Certainly we live in an era of wide spread fake news, leading to all kinds of weirdness where President Hillary today watched the UK sink into the sea, Atlantis-style, as the promised inevitable result of the brexit win, etc.

Taking an extreme grain of salt, the linked article implies at least one company owner thought it would be worth the free publicity to announce in public that he talked to the mayor of another town.

Despite shrieking insistence from the fake news that the end of the world is at hand, the odds of California falling into the ocean any time soon are quite low.
"It seems like an impossible challenge to tackle the downsides of automation and loss of low skilled jobs without basic income. "

Not impossible at all. We've been doing it for over 200 years :).

Job losses due to automation etc. have been happening since the dawn of the industrial revolution, and there's not much happening now that is particularly different - that said - maybe the case could be made for outsourcing.

We need to diversify, make sure consumers are spending, make sure taxation is working, make sure governments are spending effectively, we have reasonable worker protections.

No, it isn't. Debian packages, Ubuntu packages, etc. are tested together as a group and you can expect that they integrate properly. The same cannot be said for third-party OSX .apps. They're more like adding another repo to your sources.list. Hell, OSX won't even let you uninstall Terminal.app.
>There are examples, though, of states with higher minimum wages out performing neighboring states with lower wages.

What does "out performing" mean in this regard? Tax revenue, GDP, and employment could all be very high in a state where the majority of people are living worse off than people in other states because of a massive cost of living.

Maybe you could just provide some references to these examples?
In the case of C#, their previous compiler was built in C/C++ and was apparently very hard to work with. Since rewriting in C# itself, named 'Roslyn', they were able to build it with immutable structures, as well as expose the whole API as a regular C# library. Now they are adding new features all the time and the IDE integration is even better.

It's also really powerful for users to just add the lib, and be able to immediately parse any C# solution with the official tools, get semantic info, errors, autocomplete info etc as well as compile scripts. You can get a mini visual studio up and running in a day.

I can even get the source off github, and continue working in my favourite language. I even did this and changed the parser round (removed need for semicolons, make the language whitespace sensitive) just as a learning exercise. It also gave me a bigger appreciation of functional programming, and how one can use immutable data structures when writing a compiler.

Edit: one of the devs even used it to make real time C# [1] ala Bret Victor style.

One thing I would like to know is how we got here - that some NEED 32GB of RAM in a laptop. Scouring the web for some time shows me that in 2015 it was quite hard to get a non-gaming laptop with 32GB of ram. Now, there are quite a lot of voices that cry that it is some bare minimum.

To me it seems that more people now prefer laptops to desktops and it is annoying to sacrifice performance for portability. The lack of a truly powerful desktop Mac definitely is not helping in this regard either.

> Go ahead an multiply the stress of the above by a factor of 10 if your new kid has serious health issues.

3 years ago our then-19 month old was diagnosed with type-1 diabetes - and we haven't had a decent night's rest since. For anyone not aware, type 1 diabetes is a condition where your body stops producing insulin and as a result unable to process carbs into energy. This is not type-2 diabetes that is a result of not taking care of yourself.

Our son could die in the middle of the night from his body not having enough glucose in his system and as a result starving his brain of the energy it requires - ('dead in bed syndrome.') We're up at least 3-4 times in the middle of the night to make sure he's OK.

As a software developer I've been fortunate enough to be able to "afford" the best insurance ($20,000/year (our share) + more than 3-4k/year in out of pocket costs) which affords us the latest and greatest technology - insulin pump with integrated glucose monitor. The tech is ancient by my standards, relative unreliable (his glucose monitor can get a 'weak signal' for seemingly no reason and as a result could fail to report potentially fatal blood glucose levels.

In an ideal world the tech would be more reliable, better connected, services to monitor his blood glucose levels 24/7 would alert us by phone/emergency services/etc when at critical levels.

The stress levels are high because we never have a moment 'off.' In effect we are human, manual versions of a thermostat for his glucose levels. If it's too high he faces the long term consequences of diabetes (loss of vision, neuropathy, etc.) If it's too low he can die.

Next year the stress gets even worse - we have to trust that the school system will be able to manage his diabetes. Up until now he's always with my wife or myself, 24/7 (and occasionally with my parents, who can keep an eye on him for a couple of hours with text messaging as a 'support system' as needed.)

Needless to say there are situations that are much worse than ours, and we're thankful to be able to take care of our son in the interim until technology catches up to make his situation more manageable for him as an adult.

The stress and sleep deprivation have certainly taken their toll. Weight gain, short term memory, etc.

In addition to VCQ's point below, there is the fact that such cases are often simply not helpful despite technically being relevant. A seminal Supreme Court case might state the broad principle of law: e.g. you have a right to due process before losing government entitlements. But stuff like that is never actually disputed. In practice the dispute is over e.g. "how much process is enough?" or "when does a government benefit rise to the level of an entitlement?" The judge knows the big overarching Supreme Court case. While it's technically relevant, it's not helpful. What you need as the lawyer is to show the judge case law that supports your specific argument applying that general principle.
That's an acute definition of fiction vs reality.

UBI only has a theoretical efficiency.

The idea that governments are going to close massive departments of staff due to 'efficiency' is extremely naive - and belies a misunderstanding of how that kind of employment works.

Governments are not efficient, generally. In some areas - more than others. 'Teaching' I think is fairly efficient, it's hard to screw up. Building roads, similarly. But other functions can get way out of whack.

Governments on some level employ as a means of redistribution. My sister in law works for Canadian government - there are 600 people to 'research' and 'strategy' for prisons etc. and yet we have no real meaningful reform, experimentation or thoughtfulness in our prison system. It's nearly as basic as it was 50 years ago. So why 600 people? Because they can.

Government unions are the most powerful entities on planet earth. Those jobs will be reallocated elsewhere and there will be no 'operational savings' from UBI.

More likely - they will increase the regulation/complexity of it so that it actually does require 'tons of overhead' to manage.

UBI is a great theoretical idea, that doesn't meet the test of pragmatism. It will be about as effective as other forms of welfare.

A cheaper experiment would be to simply allow people on welfare to have some kind of job/income. No need to re-write the book to see if that works out, which is one of the big things they are trying to find out with UBI.
Apple is worse in many ways. The situation with Safari on iOS with it being the only rendering engine you can use is akin to Microsoft forbidding other browsers on Windows and only allowing browser skin UIs that sit atop IE6.
Or, not cram so many people into the space originally designed for half as many. Then everyone's roller bag would fit just fine.
I guess some languages are not meant to be used to write compilers. I a certain way it would make sense to not try to self-host your language at all prices. If you do, you may end up adding features that are outside the original philosophy. I feel that we already have enough universal, system languages. Thus, languages that try to tackle very specific problems seem more useful to me.

Indeed. A family that qualifies for Medicaid would need to spend the entire $13,000 on healthcare alone if they were trying to get a silver plan (mid-tier health insurance plan in the U.S.) with no subsidies. Since silver plans don't cover as much as Medicaid, low income families would end up spending much more than the UBI they received on healthcare alone.

On the other side, since there's no additional taxes high income earners would simply see their earnings go up by $13,000.

Also worth noting that this plan would get rid of things like renewable energy subsidies.

For me, it is not just what the MacBook Pro can do now, but what it will be able to do in three or four years. When I buy my computers, I am looking for something that will last several years. That means having the memory and storage capacity for the future, not just what I need today. Apple is making these things like iPhones, and probably hoping that we will buy a new one every two years.

I have older MacBook Pros that I upgraded the RAM, and upgraded the storage (both capacity and speed), and they still work strong. When I am done with them, I pass them down to my kids.
Maybe you're simply hitting the limitations of trying to use a laptop for everything? If you're often maxing out 16GB then upgrading to 32GB isn't going to offer you much additional headroom. For laptops 64GB and beyond currently require some pretty major tradeoffs.
