I don't recall where I saw it, but someone put it this way:

The Republicans and Democrats were playing a board game. Not liking how the game was progressing, the Republicans set the house on fire. The Democrats are still sitting at the board, surrounded by flames, weighing the tactical implications of moving various pieces in response.
I've used various CI/CD server/services in the past. As with so many tooling questions this is one of those 'depends' situations.

Jenkins is okay but you have to really stay on top of the build environment (not just a specified in Jenkins itself but also the OS and tooling on the Jenkins server and build machines).

I'm in the process of building a new CI/CD pipeline and this time I'm using Concourse. This is a good fit because the target system is largely containerised (not that Concourse can't be used elsewhere, it can, but it's just a coincidental fit). Additionally, Concourse addresses the problem identified by Cpoll as, unlike Jenkins et al, Concourse pipeline, build plans, and tasks are 100% available for version control.

That all said, I can't comment on Concourse's foibles as I've not used it long enough to uncover them :)

Why would you think its not fun? Have never used the "immediate" window or expression evaluation in a debugger to run code?

Look it up, its nice.
See the example I added above. This has nothing to do with high taxes but rather with Switzerland catering for luxury export stuff (medicines, watches, banking etc..) that relies on a huge external economy.
The rest of the world can do a lot of things when America develops drugs for them, protects them from harm, and designs new technology so humanity can progress. The peace that America has wrought across the world is unprecedented and, in doing so, she has made the world a safer place to trade than ever before. And trade greatly benefits nations like Switzerland.

I'm not claiming they're freeloaders. This benefits us all. But it's not an obvious claim that America would be better off if there were less discretionary spending on the military.

A lot of the emails she received for either side of the issue were probably canned too.
One phrase that I've noticed (over)used in NFL broadcasts is "give credit". After a win, a star player will often "give credit" to the other team, their defense, lesser-known players, etc. It seems to be a decent way to act humble when you're the center of attention, without saying "humbled".
It's annoying that every time I see a reference to Jigsaw it is only in the most abstract terms. Never an example or anything concrete enough to explain what is involved. Couldn't they just say: "Jigsaw introduces a source level module construct.."
I don't understand the 'final'... they're not stopping development in any way.

So, isn't it just.. Ionic 2? or maybe Ionic 2.0?
>Do you have some alternative to the "existing economic model"? I ask because I can't think of a single example of a free society where there's no private property.

I don't know if there is a viable alternative economic model, but I can certainly conceive of them, and I don't think "Human Rights" should preclude those models, nor do I think they need to.

If the current economic system requires certain prerequisites to meet our Human Rights, then those prerequisites are implied by those rights in the context of that system.

>But it's equally naive to think that you can be free in a society where you don't have economic freedoms.

To "be free" is a nebulous concept. There are many possible freedoms one can have, and many of them conflict with each other.

To some, economic freedoms mean the freedom to deny food to the starving. Many people disagree on whether this is a freedom worth defending.
> So you would rather restart the hiring process than wait another week?

That's only half the coin - the other half is "would you rather restart the hiring process than hire someone showing red flags (not sticking to their commitments / showing up on time) before they even start the job?"

Sick? Family emergency? Funeral? Sure.

Can't let go of your old job? Hmm...

> From what I've read about the numbers this seems very costly.

From what I've read, so is hiring the wrong person and then having to fire them or have them quit - all that time wasted getting them up to speed.
A lot of bullshit has been "consistently reported" for a long time around Cannabis. Can you think of any possible reason why this might be? Any at all?
The date/time input was particularly disappointing... the time being absolutely hideous even on the desktop. These days I consider material-ui.com (react components) to be one of the best component libraries I've seen. Short of that, I'd just assume use something like Bootstrap for the (s)css and control most of it myself, which is easy enough.

In fact, I'm half surprised they didn't just do a nice set of components meant to be used with Bootstrap, considering the style choices are very close.
> There's no reason why it can't scale

I grew up in Switzerland. Nobody checked if we bought metro tickets. Everyone bought them. The only people I remember being little shits about it were tourists. Cultural norms do not informally enforce themselves at scale--you need institutions, and those institutions cost money and freedom.
Per capita the US spends roughly 2x as much as Switzerland on defence.
What's the benefit? I don't like having to calculate how big things will be (by converting base font + rem to px) while with px I know immediately.
I always felt this way about the "Autonomy" "Mastery" "Purpose" thing... Like, Autonomy and Mastery, when applied to Purpose lead to Achievement, and that's the real deal.

Do stuff that matters, stop doing stuff that doesn't matter, make sure all parts of the team and management know what does and doesn't matter, and why. People will be happier, more productive, and they'll things they produce will be more important for business, everyone wins.

But instead, lets beat the drums, sail into the wind seeking the white whale... which turns out to be some petty ego-driven nonsense that customers/users won't buy into (since it's not made for them, just at them) and won't still exist two years from now.

Pat yourself on the back, pat each other on the back, when your significant others ask "how'd it go" you can actually have something to say "I made a change to our checkout page that boosted sales by 5% +/- 1% and got a little bonus out of it, lets go get that dessert you love at that place you like." instead of "I sat in a meeting arguing with Salesforce admins about how many weeks it will take for them to add a new field to the object that backs a form on a landing page that gets a few tens of visits a year, then another meeting with business about why their new field doesn't exist yet."
Ajit Pai, Donald Trump’s FCC Pick, Set to Target Net Neutrality
I agree with the second especially. The whole point of School is to prepare you for the world we live in (it's effectiveness in many aspects is highly up for debate, but that's another discussion) and you will frequently find yourself in Real Life having to deal with people not necessarily like you. Further isolating people into given groups is only going to increase the social fracturing we already see taking place.

Not to mention organizing people by intelligence is a shaky proposition at best, given our current best assessment, the IQ rating, is already proving to be inadequate as an objective measurement.

The binary file of the database (all-inclusive and statically linked) is around 300 kilobytes (!), which makes is probably the most expensive (non-custom) software per kilobyte.
Is there anything more statist than wanting to pick and choose which businesses do well and which ones crash and burn? Taking out one's personal vendettas on businesses on a whim?

I take that back, the 2nd part is beyond even statism.
LA's traffic problem is the sheer volume of traffic.

If you introduce another pipe, that pipe will immediately get saturated.

LA has a TON of infrastructure, tons of long, expansive 6 lane highways, HOV lanes, Express lanes, tons of wide boulevards with 2-3 lanes in each direction.

LA is massive on a scale people don't realize - it's not as crazy as when you go to Manhattan for the first time because it's not built up. But spend some time there and you will be impressed by how big that city is. Think of the suburb you grew up in - big parking lots, wide streets, strip malls.

LA is like a giant, oversprawled suburb with 16MM+ people in the metro area.

Not saying we should just say screw it and give up, but the answer here isn't more roads or highways or tunnels.

It's things like uber, public transporation, car shares, things that get cars off the road.
Whenever I see 'expert status' debated at universities, where it is debated and criticized a lot, my alarm sirens go up. You can split hairs about what really constitutes an expert for many hours, I've even been to conferences about this topic. But funny Niels Bohr paraphrases aside, it's in reality very simple and not problematic at all who constitutes as an expert:

- Experts have 20-40 years of experience in a particular field within their discipline. Young scholars or those belonging to the academic middle field need not be counted as experts. (They may still be experts, but that doesn't mean you should resort to them for providing expertise.)

- Experts have 20-40 years of continuous publications in peer-reviewed international academic journals about the subject matter, or have been working in the field for that time in a senior role in non-academic fields (e.g. race driving, casino security, etc.).

- Experts are recognized as eminent scholars by the majority of fellow scientists who also work in the field, whether they agree with them or not. Not just scholars or average scholars, eminent scholars.

- The expert's discipline is an actual science and their field of expertise is in fact a subfield of that discipline. Fields are much narrower areas of specialization than disciplines. (Hence, priests are not experts about 'what's good', astrologers are not experts in astronomy and mechanical engineers who muse about special relativity are not experts about special relativity.)

- The expert is given the intellectual independence and has sufficient access to the evidence needed to provide his expertise.

These criteria really suffice to weed out all the pseudo-experts of the world. That's because most if not all pseudo-experts are either laymen or crackpots from related disciplines, and in any case are not recognized as eminent scholars from people of their field. Someone can be an expert without satisfying these criteria, Richard Feynman on the Challenger catastrophe, for instance, but if you want to make sure, the above criteria suffice.

Last but not least, nobody is forced to believe genuine experts, but he should also be prepared to defend his points of view as well as a genuine expert or be regarded a stupid assclown if he doesn't.
Ah, seen. Yes I misunderstood. So despite feeling the strong sense of annoyance, you're still not motivated enough to overcome the AppStore friction.
> Both are required for one to be able to enjoy the full value that they create through their own efforts.

That is demonstrably wrong, given that a large number of people throughout history has enjoyed the full value that they create without enforcing property rights.

If you want to make an argument that property rights are beneficial, then make that argument, because that is an argument that you may be able to defend depending on your underlying assumptions.

But the very point of property law is to limits others ability to make use of property. Its very point is to reduce the liberty of those who does not have ownership.

It's ok to feel that this is an acceptable, justifiable reduction of liberty, but it doesn't change the fact that it places substantial restrictions on others, and trying to pretend that it doesn't will not change that.
I can't find the article. But it had a great solution. In California, we have a system for paying tolls automatically. Called FasTrak, you install a device in your car and when you pass a toll booth it deducts the amount required. Super easy.

The idea was that we should implement a micro toll system for all freeways. During peak hours the charge is maybe $2, during off-peak there's still a charge but it's maybe $0.50. Even major streets would have small tolls of 5-10 cents. This helps in two ways. Many people are weirdly resistant to paying even small fees to things (see $0.10 bag tax). and would maybe just stay home. This hopefully would encourage people to ride public transportation, which is now funded by the tolls.
I find this approach to be especially effective for ensuring every meeting is pertinent to issues of importance at present. By scheduling meetings in this manner one rarely has that "ohh crap, what is this meeting on my schedule about again?" moment that many of us sometime feel when walking into a meeting that has been scheduled weeks in advance.
Anyone care to explain the downvoting of a simple factual statement? Are the systemd fans angry that other options are viable?

For anyone else wanting to completely purge systemd from an Arch install, here is a good and thorough description; takes less than one hour to switch if you read it thoroughly, about ten minutes if you just do as it says in the code listings.

Something must be making up for the competitive work culture. I wonder what that is.

You answered your own question.

best output in the world

You're defining "best output" as per capita GDP or something similar. But, money doesn't always buy happiness. Many European countries manage to maintain high GDP while also providing a work/life balance that allows citizens to enjoy themselves and live healthier, less stressful lifestyles.
My take from this is that Trump is a symptom of a problem. The problem is never going to go away by attacking Trump or his policies. He is promising a solution to a problem that people are experiencing in the US. Like it or not, people are buying his solution.

If you don't like his solution, then you find a better one and sell it the people who are buying Trump's.

But most importantly, before we build another product to sell, we have to understand the problem. Get out of our ivory tower and understand the plight some people are experiencing.
Doomsday isn't going to happen tommorrow, but if you think its a possibility then it makes sense to sink money into a minature fortress now, then later as things worsen, grow outwards and invest in lesser protected zones for people who are aligned with you to join.
That is a large subject, for sure. It deserves a good essay. I'll try to write something tonight. I'll post it to my blog and I'll leave a note here.

I love this! If I'm ever in a position to accept an award I'm going to steal this opening. It's certainly more entertaining than the affected humility we see.

Of course, even this approach will have its own shelf life — meaning that, if used widely, it will also become a parody of itself.

Consider this from another PoV: there are a lot of talented people who refuse to join workforce because of those reasons (mentioned in the article). How much a country is losing from such talent loss?
From what I know of New Zealanders they still are very egalitarian and generally hate wealthy billionaires. I think if these rich people actually move there they'd regret it.
There are only three possibilities I can see:

1) The President and his staff are mistaken, but honestly believe what they say

2) The President and his staff are lying, and know they are spreading falsehoods

3) The President and his staff are delusional

What other options are there?

If (1) is the case, and the actual facts are presented and they refuse to believe them, that would also seem to imply (3).
1. This is a Harrison Bergeron argument. "We can't let people move quickly, because it might be unfair to other people." Effectively this means denying the people you can identify because there are going to be other 'deserving' people you don't identify. Replace 'education' with 'food' and see if this logic holds up: "We shouldn't feed the people we know are hungry, because other people might be hungry and now they would be disadvantaged because they would be more sickly and weak compared to the people we fed."

2. This is an argument that basically 'every kind of diversity is automatically good' or something. Dumb kids don't benefit from being around very gifted kids. They do see the very gifted kids and feel bad. The very gifted kids are going to isolate themselves from the dumb people as quickly as they can as soon as they can no matter what you do.

3. Smart people do well and often have smart children. They understand education because they have greater than average experience with education and a better ability to apply that knowledge. They will not stick around 'the worst schools' no matter how much you try to force them by handicapping smart kids. It's a free country, they will pull their kids out of bad schools. I think you'll find that parents are very uninterested in your theories of social engineering and much more interested in making sure their kids are given everything they need.

You don't have a choice. double edged swords are already being wielded. At this point it's just a fight. Draw it to a stalemate and then decide what to do.

At least you don't lose more ground or have to rebuild more institutions.

I was in a similar place where Java (and the other languages I knew at the time) had made programming stop being fun. I started to wonder if I needed a new career. But instead I learned Python and it made programming fun again. That was 8 years ago and it's still fun.
But when your boss has never even made a model, let alone tried to fish data out of a database, then the kind of work he can imagine, his idea for time duration for work are all off.

More importantly, what he values in the team (for when it comes to promotions) is also likely to be off. And hence, you can end up in a situation where you don't get promoted despite being very good at your job.

If more component libraries went with the following structure...

It's easy enough to target the input/span as children of label for custom styling, without having to use JS or some weird wrangling of classes and structure.

.. why don't you complain dude ? what's the worst that can happen ? hell, ask everyone so you can form a group-complain or something ? fuck it complain everyday, making them stressed that you complain ? shit like, please lower a little the volume or stay a little quitter ? do it persistently and stress them back? fucking take a note from a doctor ? go around the office with noise detector to find the quietest desk and ask to transfer there? report anonymously for bad working conditions ? put cameras with movement detectors and keep stats on each desk ? but at least you'll find some closure instead of going insane

There's another factor here that hasn't been mentioned: Switzerland is only a couple of hundred kilometres across. That makes a difference when it comes to public transport and other infrastructure like broadband. I laugh when I see case studies about high-speed broadband in Europe. Europe is small. If you put my country on top of Europe, the south-westernmost city would be in Portugal and the northernmost in Estonia. And the US is even bigger.
> We go to school not just to be educated but to educate each other. If we're smart, we set an example to kids near us who don't feel that way. Hopefully, those who aren't labelled 'smart' gain from the presence of 'smart' students and 'smart' students gain from theirs.

So, if we trap the geeks where they can be bullied and beaten, they'll understand what the real world is like better? I'll be real with you, I've never been hated for expertise or diligence in real life, not like the way bullies work today, which is way worse than it was for me. And I know where some of those bullies end up. They did not benefit from their jeering and hatred. Can we stop using this to justify the torture of society's most promising youths?
Freezing federal hiring literally will cost jobs, so is in no way pro worker. Employees of the government are workers too. The ACA benefits my wife who was able to quit her job to start a business without worrying about being denied healthcare for her pre-existing condition. The ACA benefits all workers in businesses who now are required to offer healthcare plans which meet a minimum standard. Workers will not benefit once businesses can go back to deciding that offering a group health insurance plan is an optional benefit.
Hopefully their need will go away in Java 10.

Doesn't it come down to the argument about whether a private company can run a service (on behalf of society) more efficiently than the government itself? The article makes this pretty clear - $3,000 for giving birth in a Swiss hospital plus much better care, or $30,000 for bare minimum care in the US. I very much doubt it costs more to run hospitals in the US - even with the liberal lawsuit culture. It's more likely in my mind that the Swiss government holds insurers and hospitals to a higher standard, and enforces more protection for the insured, than in the US. (I'm no expert though)
