I think that's the point.

I'm going to make a derisive comparison: A parent trying to cooperate with their child (if they can't assert dominance) will in many cases resort to move closer to the childs position, like getting them a candy as a reward if they put their shoes on. It doesn't matter much if the parent is in the right, if there is no way to convince the other party. Then diplomacy on your part is the last resort.

I'm not saying this is the right thing to do, but it does make logical sense.

If the GOP relentlessly moves to the right, and refuses to be bipartisan on anything (even something as basic and frankly obvious as public healthcare), then you're forced to move to the best they can agree on, as someone mentioned earlier: romneycare. I'm in no way knocking the core ideals of: less government spending, sane tax legislation, less hurdles to start a business, more freedom over what to put in your body, etc. But that's not what any of the GOP brass is about, at least not anymore.

It's fucked, but somehow tens of millions of people keep voting to fuck themselves, on basically all issues other than gun control and abortions. As a non-native, it's beyond baffling. But I guess Republican Jesus loves guns, female subservience and anarcho-capitalism.
> I did kind of sign up for some growing pains with an all-new technology.

I don't really subscribe to this line of thinking with a piece of equipment that is so expensive.

That being said, I'm a car nut. I've gone through more than my share of vehicles over the years and the percentage that have been problem free straight out of the dealership is pretty low. I had a 5-series that my wife got to drive for a day before it sat in our garage for 6 weeks. I was quite perturbed. I had a mercedes that was in and out of the dealership for a few months right out of the gate, but their dealership was the friendliest and most helpful that I've dealt with. I had a mustang that I left service with at one point with no brakes. Imagine being a block from the dealership and figuring that out. I had a Navigator that I spent three months complaining about before the manufacturer admitted they had a problem and put out a kit to fix. Up until then the dealer laid blame 100% on the fact that I had aftermarket wheels put on it.

It's not new technology. It's that the nature of the car business is such that they put them together with best-effort and there isn't a lot that is done from an individual quality-control perspective before they reach customers. Dealer fix-it shops keep themselves busy and full of employees by fixing warranty issues. The danger of doing it differently is that dealers would be short manpower and repair parts would be crazy expensive if cars never had any problems. It's cheap to fix a 12 year old F150 because so many people know how to fix them.

Personally, I'd love to get a Tesla. From all I've heard they have great customer service and work hard to make sure solutions are complete. I don't expect perfection. The only thing that drives me crazy is getting the runaround when problems are unusual.
Good: every dollar of medallion price is a dollar of anticipated price gouging, of ripping off the consumer.
Back in the JSP/ASP/PHP days, everyone was basically a full-stack dev. Because of server side rendering and direct DB access etc. I'd guess people who have more than 5 years of experience come from that direction.

So they aren't that rare.

But doing just one thing is easier.

When I do back end stuff, I have to think about scalability and API design, which is hard enough in it self.

When I do front end stuff, I have to think about information architecture and perceived performance.

I can do both, but I don't have infinite time, so I focus on the things I like the most, which is the front end :)
It's an intellectually honest way to point out inconsistency. The hypocrisy is asymmetric from my pov. I know people who were horrified Obama got elected and some indulged in variations of the 'he's Hitler' BS, but the current reaction by the extreme neo-left is a magnitude of order worse. There's plenty (a majority I bet) of Dems that are not making that mistake, but the echo chamber prevents them from speaking unless they are willing to piss off their peers.
Isn't that the LGPL? I'm struggling to see how the network part would enter into it.
Indeed, these providers offer "virtual servers" as well, but if look beyond that they play an entirely different game than AWS.

The only relevant competitors to AWS are Google and maybe MS Azure. Both also US companies.

No one else is anywhere near the level of scale and expertise AWS has.

People appear to expect companies to take stances and play politics. It's an important observation and should be exploited for business leveraging. This is how namecheap gained market traction - they took heavy handed anti-godaddy stances during the SOPA debate and it worked hugely in their favor.

The other observation is that if your market position has a lot to do with inertia and habit - as in, if many people are using you mostly because they used you the last time, your position is tenuous.

And lastly, this may be a good example of aggregate forms of capital cost. The idea is that every exchange involves not only financial capital (money) but social and spiritual (what one thinks of themselves) capital. Your competitors can increase this aggregate cost and you can modify it without consciously being aware.

By paying drivers more. Surge pricing would work only for drivers, and be averaged out for customers so they don't see a change in rates. It would encourage more people to use Uber, that are turned off by surge pricing. But maybe Uber doesn't want to have them as clients during surges, depends on the ability to scale to demand.
> the medallion ("no more than N cabs may be operating at any given time")

The whole point of this is to ensure that the price for taxi rides is higher than what the market-clearing price would be. In other words, it's a scam to rip off gthe consumer.

(Similar arguments apply to zoning regulations and house prices, of course)
Yes, that is magical, in a very good way.

I like the idea of a tracker crawling the DHT. Research institutions could sign their torrents with their private keys and the tracker only indexes those signed with approved keys. Institutions register their public keys with the tracker and when an institution loses their keys, only their torrents are affected. Anyone can run such a tracker and there is no central authority. Nice. Is it possible to store signatures in torrent metadata?

One could always get a bit closer API-wise and go with a self-hosted Openstack cloud. It's a bit more involved than many folks care for, but if 'API-CRUDable VMs, networks, object storage, images' and similar are the goal, the market's pretty thin.

> This is like if Coca Cola workers went on strike, and problem blamed Pespi Co of breaking strike by not sending their workers home??

Well, yes, that's how a general strike works. You expect every worker in the field to follow. This is not a strike to get better conditions within one company, this is a strike toward a governmental action.
> I wouldn't bet against visas getting revoked and workers having to go home the next day or get deported.

As a software engineer on H1B (as is my fiancée) currently at Google, this scares the shit out of me.

I've lived my entire adult life in this country. I've got many amazing friends here, I've worked hard, built great products that I'm proud of, paid my taxes, and bought a home here with my fiancée. We're planning to get married and have a baby this year. This is our version of the American dream.

And all of that could be destroyed in an instant by an orange monster full of xenophobic rhetoric and wielding immense power. I'd trust a "normal" American president to not accidentally / maliciously destroy everything I've worked for over the past decade, but from the evidence this week, I'm scared. Really scared.

Yes, if your main concern is to protect Uber against surges, you're right. But customers also perceive this as an attempt to extract more money from them when they are in a bad position, such as during a crisis.

I thought Thiel had cut to the heart of the matter with that statement before the election, but now think he is wrong, for exactly the reasons you state. His statement implies that we should not worry about Trump's crazier ideas, because he'll be tempered by advisors and feedback. The assumption there is that he listens and acts on advice, and that he chooses the right advisors.

The evidence so far points to this not being the case. Trump's statements past and present should be taken literally, at face value. What he says and has said is what you will get, and he is making a strenuous effort to deliver on every single one of his promises (even crazy ones), because he believes them to be correct. After this week I now firmly believe if he could ban all muslims tomorrow, he would do so, and damn the consequences. Rescinding green cards en-masse is incredibly destructive to the reputation of America, it is really quite reckless as well as cruel.

So it turns out Thiel was wrong - Trump has been and will continue to go through with his promises to the letter in many important areas. There are some areas (like healthcare or prosecuting Hilary Clinton) where Thiel was probably right in that he won't really bother with them, but only because Trump really doesn't care about them.
I use SimpleNote because it has perfect sync from computer to cloud to mobile (conflict-free and instant). Maybe someone can comment here about how they achieve that with TiddlyWiki.
Moreover, because this strike was inherently political, should taxi drivers who actually support the immigration EO (or at least don't feel compelled to protest) be forced to partake in the strike? That sounds like an utterly indefensible position to me.

>The law passed by Congress in this case states that the immigration department is not allowed to discriminate based by country of origin.

See Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act:

"(f) Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."

Case closed.
Virtue signaling in this context means that actions of individuals are directed mostly at people within their political and social group, not outside it.

Why is this a bad thing? Are you allowing for the possibility that it's easier to eventually sway outsiders if one first builds momentum with a significant group of like-minded people? Isn't it in fact very common to start by getting like-minded people to agree on a shared platform of ideas and actions, and then move toward convincing outsiders of the correctness of that shared platform?

Indeed, in this political climate, where silent majority is actually in favor of the ban, to be in favor of it in the social circles of coastal elites could be harmful to one's well being.

"Coastal elites" is a term lacking empirical content. However, the majority of Americans who voted did not vote for Donald Trump, and there is no evidence to support your assertion that a majority of Americans in general are in favor of the immigration order; if by "coastal elites" you mean "people of generally socially-liberal political leanings who live in major urban areas", you are in fact contradicting yourself since evidence suggests such people are the majority of Americans. You are hopefully aware that the American electoral system is designed to disproportionately represent minority populations, which is why the popular-vote winner did not get elected President.

When "their" people do the same or worse things, there's no protest or condemnation.

I have yet to see an assertion of "same or worse things" being presented which A) holds up to scrutiny of the "same or worse" assertion and B) was not protested/condemned. For example, many socially-liberal people expressed condemnation of Obama's immigration and foreign policy stances, expressing regret because they hoped he would break from socially-conservative approaches. Do you ignore this fact?

People on the right are prone to this too, but seemingly to a much lesser extent. In particular they don't seem to care much about protests.

If "people on the right" "don't seem to care much about protests", what is the Tea Party and its large rallies? What is the NRA and its mobilization of people? Why are there so many protests at Planned Parenthood locations, to the extent that those locations routinely need to implement strict security policies to ensure safe access to facilities?

Additionally, are all of those groups just "virtue signalling"? Do you equally condemn them, or do you only bring out such comments when a group you disagree with is protesting?

In other words: do you have a coherent position here, or are you simply engaging in the very practices you condemn?

Nah, you misunderstand me. I'm saying webpack+babel should be a single program with a sensible default config. I didn't mean to imply anything grander than that.

> Choose the tools that suit you, learn them, and be happy.

If someone decides to use Webpack+Babel, I don't think they're going to be "happy" about having to memorize a list of at least 9 different npm packages and 35 lines of configuration. Not to mention re-memorizing the new sets of packages and configurations every six months when some maintainer decides that package X should be split into packages Z, Q, and R, or that the current configuration tree is "wrong" and needs to be tweaked in backwards incompatible ways.
Microservices architecture: what the gurus say about it
A cap-and-trade scheme is a reasonable option if your goal is to limit the quantity of something (like carbon emissions) while allowing the market to behave as normal otherwise.

But there's no direct reason to limit the number of taxis. People suggest that limiting the supply ensures drivers make a decent living, but if you want that, employment law (e.g. enforcing minimum wage for drivers) is a more direct solution.
That is definitely true for some of the older versions of Mongo. Still, a quorum write concern will yield far fewer consistency violations. An interesting trade-off to take: losing a little data is better than losing a little latency.

Pretty awesome, I've always wanted to make something like this myself, but listening to the demo on SoundCloud I don't think I would never even get close to this :-)

One question I have is how difficult it would be to adapt a soft synth like this to also be able to produce the kinds of sounds you would get from a SID (from the C64 etc). My understanding of waveform synth is very limited, but it has always struck me how different all synthesizers (hardware and software) always sounded so different from SID chiptunes. Probably there's some analog effects going on there that are hard to reproduce mathematically?

> I would never expect them to participate in a strike and effectively order their drivers to stop working.

Doubly so since half of their business model's premise is that Uber drivers are not employees, independent contractors who bring their own equipment, set their own hours, and pick up the fares that they feel like. They officially only boss the drivers around once they've picked up the fare.
One thing I don't understand is why America seems to have developed a sense of us vs them within their own country. Like "coastal elites", wtf?
Your biggest and most populous and useful cities are on the coast, they are also where all the immigrants are.
It's almost as if one group of people, that has no clue about anything to do with immigration are saying they are massively against it, whilst those that live with the immigrants don't have an issue with it.

America you need to sort that shit out, people that have no business caring about immigration shouldn't have a say on it. They definitely shouldn't be able to out-vote the population of your coastal cities which seems to be your only chance of relevance this century.

On my car there's no spare, there's only a tyre repair kit. Which is all great in an emergency, but using the tyre repair kit destroys the tyre - and the ones on mine are rather expensive($250/each). On the other hand, I get free recovery during the warranty of the vehicle - so I would rather get it towed to a garage nearby and get the tyre patched up for about ~$15 than pay for a new tyre(obviously if it can be patched, if the sidewall is damaged then no).
