It's actually shocking there's not a EU wide Amazon.
How would you suggest going about overcoming these differences? I live in the EU. I've thought about this for some time and I can't really think of a scalable approach.

One aspect of the problem is taxes and regulations, which for the most part has to be addressed politically. The different jurisdictions are a cause for friction, too.

The even more significant barrier however is the linguistic and cultural one. It's not sufficient to just translate a say English language website to French in order to start selling in France (and providing proper idiomatic translations for each of the main EU languages is difficult enough). There are cultural differences right down to which website designs are popular in any given EU country at a time. You often can tell where a website is 'located' just by looking at its design.

Not quite. Usually the PDF specifies each character (although the reader still has to do a slightly wacky conversion from glyph name to unicode character) but the position is specified as an (x,y) position, so the reader has to reconstruct the order that they come in, add spaces and newlines, etc.
Thanks for the long reply! I don't have the time continue this. I mostly agree with what you say.

I do think that making verification tools easier is something that researchers could and should be thinking about. Probably not verification and logic researchers directly, but someone should be carefully thinking about it and systematically exploring how we can look at our programs and decide they do what we want them to do. I have some hope for the DeepSpec project to at least start us down that path.

I also have hope for type-level approaches where the typechecking algorithms are predictable enough to avoid the "Z3 in my type system" problem but expressive enough that you can get useful properties out of them. I think this is also a careful design space and another place that researchers lose because they don't think about usability. They just say "oh, well I'll generate these complicated SMT statements and discharge them with Z3, all it needs to work on are the programs for my paper and if it doesn't work on one of them, I'll find one it does work on and swap it out for that one." Why would you make a less expressive system if usability wasn't one of your goals?

I have relatives in Australia who worked for the sugar industry.

Turns out that unrefined sugar is kept in gigantic open barns, and moved around with bulldozers --- not a clean process. Of course, birds and animals get in, and frequently die there, and then the sugar does... sugar things... to them.

As a result there is apparently a legal limit as to the maximum permissible number of crystallised parrots per tonne in Australian sugar.

I'm not sure that the labour theory of value is related to "supply and demand" as you say.

If I remember correctly, labour theory of value says that all value come from work, that is: you have nature, you have capital (that is work already done) and the only way to create more value is working. If after consuming the product of that new work, you have surplus, you have new capital available.

How is that related to supply and demand?

Though we'd want that to be okay. The Russians might then reject saying you sent us 999 kgs of wheat and 1 kg of sand.

It does , because this is one platform with fully inter operable work item, build number, change set id , deployment server integration readily available , if you notice the individual tools, they come from different org's and have different way of working , except that they have a rest API exposed for you to integrate any other tool in a limited way. Its like when a developer makes one line of code change , he or she can use this platform to shepherd the change into production in a fully automated manner and take responsibility for the same.

I saw one other comment mentioning healthcare, so I'll both to share my opinion as of 2017.

The next (or after the next) Microsoft-Google-Apple-Facebook size tech company will be a healthcare company.

There is no reason access to healthcare can't be as streamlined and cheap as calling an Uber. In addition to diagnosis AI should be able to strip out nearly all of the administrative & clerical layer. Self driving vehicles + drones can reduce the need for large complex hospitals. All of this could not just be a convenience, but mandatory in a post-antibiotic world.

Because of regulatory issues, while this may be an American company, it would be available for Americans for quite some time.

There's a suggestion that that has less to do with inherent issues and more with wanting to display more information than can be obtained from whatever the Windows API calls stat(2). An indexer can actually help a great deal here, but I don't know if that's actually the issue - I should be getting a work-issued Windows 10 box pretty soon here, and look forward to experimenting for myself.

That said, even the slowness under discussion doesn't actually hang the UI thread. That's something you have to be pretty special to get so badly wrong, in this day and age where even web devs are learning better than to do expensive work in the main thread, and have the tools available to avoid doing so.
We built Crab so we could run SQL queries over the filesystem. It's for Win and Mac, free for personal use, and lets you slice this anyway you want and plot the data how you like. I like the flexibility.

Motorola just never learned how to sit still and continue to support and extend their platform. They got early to market with the 68000 (late 70s! way ahead of its time!) but it was a totally separate ISA and platform from the (quite awesome) 6809 8-bit chip. No continuity between them. As soon as the 68k looked a bit long in the tooth they started pushing the 88k, which was a total failure. Again with no continuity. Then they jumped to PowerPC, but they never even fully committed to that either.

If they'd done what Intel did and continued to develop on the same platform, maybe they'd still exist and we've have more diversity in platforms today. The 68000 was so much nicer to develop for than x86.
That's considering commute time is somehow directly related to price, which isn't true.

Your commute depends on your job, where the price depends on safety, size, shops in the area, noise pollution, air pollution, parc proximity etc...

Here in London, there are landlords who will rent out individual beds in multiple-bed rooms. For example, for £60 / week (about $300 / month) [1] you can rent one room in a three-bed bedroom.

If you're serious, you should check whatever small ads website is popular in your region and see if there are people offering the same thing.

An economist and a normal person are walking down the street together. The normal person says “Hey, look, there’s a $20 bill on the sidewalk!” The economist replies by saying “That’s impossible- if it were really a $20 bill, it would have been picked up by now.”
It's funny to see the sharing economy promoted as a goal in itself, when 30 years ago one of the criticisms of the Soviet Union was that people there are so poor that they are forced to share kitchens and cars with strangers.

Nobody wants to share things, it's all done for economic reasons. People buy on AirBNB and Uber because it's cheaper than an equivalent hotel or taxi. People sell on AirBNB and Uber because they need the extra income.

For a short while, VC investments paid out as bonuses to the participants, and just the novelty of the thing might keep both sides happy. But eventually there has to be a balance found between "I want to pay less" and "I want to earn as much as before" and "government wants as much taxes as before".

So everyone's a winner, what's the problem? Everyone is getting a better deal than they would with an alternative, excellent I say.
I disagree with you when you call those issues minor. Having the compiler enforcing such constraints is the difference between being able to concentrate on a portion of your application before adjusting it and having to study the whole logic for the tiniest change.
Both the original example and your translation exhibit poor API design: it's an antipattern to return mutable references to member variables.

There is, it's Amazon. They're closing in on $20 billion in European sales, growing at double digits, with something like 50,000 employees. If you look at what they're doing in Europe, Amazon is getting more aggressive by the year in terms of expanding and investing there.

The UK increasingly restricts net access to certain sites (piratebay ban), and the telcos are not competitive everywhere.

> that anything that's anticonsumer will get punished by the market

many large telcos are going the way of mobile networks, by tying you in with complex, one-sided contracts, salesmen-sold "bundles" etc.

How many inexpensive, short-term mobile contracts can you get? If internet contracts aren't there now, they will be soon.
Just because that is what it currently concentrates on does not mean that it should not work perfectly fine for other countries ;-)

taking on the Bloomberg terminal.

They've got over 300 000 subscribers each paying circa 2000 USD every month. That's 600 million dollars of revenue per month. They're running a labyrinthine functionality on a 1970s System/360-style interface (command line at top of screen). He hires an absolute army of "reps" who's sole job is to try to help subscribers to find functionality, through an interface that is best described as "arcane" and where there is no semblance whatsoever of a user-discoverable taxonomy of functionality. It's all just sort of "you gotta know where you want to go". Most people use 5% of the terminal's functionality (mainly messaging) but Bloomberg refuses to tier pricing. It's all or nothing. And with finance changing rapidly, the clients are axed to cut costs. Not to mention real suspicions of monopoly because bberg is increasingly competing with its own clients in order to maintain share.

This tyrannosaurus will be hard to take down frontally, but the beast is big enough and unwieldy enough that small nibbles here and there in specialized areas can be very attractive businesses.

Other tidbits:

* Bloomberg is stubbornly Windows only. No web, no Linux, no OSX no anything else except a bit of crippleware on mobile.

* Multiple Fortune 500 companies and banks would salivate at taking him on, which means a ready pool of very cash-rich potential buyers for your growing business if you get any traction, and that includes Bloomberg itself.

* Michael Bloomberg the man has not endeared himself to the current president so may be vulnerable.

Challenges:

* quant-style people who know what they're doing are very expensive. 200k USD plus per year.

* network-effects powerful in favour of bloomberg.

* once you're through the crusty user interface, assuming you found what you want (often with the help of a bloomberg "rep"), the actual functionality is often amazingly good.
At Google at least nearly the entire company held a protest against it. I assume at other companies people feel similarly about their co-workers, and want to protect them.
Then the opportunity could be creating a company that solves these problems for other companies.

It depends what you mean by "good use", I suppose; I started out with just the very basic outliner and checklist features, and expanded from there. It didn't take much more than knowing those features existed, and what they looked like, to start using them. You do need to refer heavily to documentation when getting started with more complex features, but that seems like a fair tradeoff to me.

I'm also not sure what you mean by "complexity penalty vs. using a plain text file", since Org files are plain text files, with all the magic implemented in the UI layer - I regularly edit Org files on my phone with Editorial, and while the UI is obviously rudimentary by comparison, such editing is not actually difficult to do. Will you elaborate on what you mean here?
I am sorry for that issue, and sorry for all the emails,but SpaceVim is not only copy the name of spacemacs,it has many important ideas of spacemacs, such as layers(plugin and config groups), leader guide,and mappings fuzzy searching.

why I create SpaceVim, instead of support space-vim, I think space-vim is just a copy of https://github.com/ctjhoa/spacevim and https://github.com/Tehnix/spaceneovim-layers and https://github.com/Tehnix/spaceneovim

BTW space-vim's some syntax script is copy from https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug and install script is just copy from spf13.

so I do not want to support it, but when I create SpaceVim, and post blog anout SpaceVim, the author of space-vim comments a lot of unfriendly message.

and here is the link.

so I will apologies to all the people who receive my emails about SpaceVim, but I will not apologies to the author of space-vim.

There's petgraph (https://crates.io/crates/petgraph), which uses integers as node and edge indexes, instead of pointers. That is a common trick to work around the borrow checker: instead of pointers into a data structure, store an index into that data structure.
Universe neither confirms nor denies its holographic nature
This sounds like something that can only be true for equations below some size. If you're trying to manipulate a sufficiently large equation, it has to be automated, so directly editing text is bound to lose (however clunky the automated method may be). So maybe your experience is just that equations rarely get large enough to make it worth it to use a graphical editor?

For instance, doesn't the fact that people do pure algebra with Mathematica (forgetting about all the numerics, integrals, etc.) demonstrate that TeX loses for sufficiently large equations? Even if one only needs to use one or two functions with a very obvious tree interpretation (e.g., distributing multiplication over addition), Mathematica beats TeX for large enough equations.

What graphical equation editors have you used? This was what turned up when I searched google: http://equalx.sourceforge.net

Hey, RN Android dev here: re: object finalizers:

- For Fresco, I think Balazs provided a pretty good response here on how Fresco uses the finalizers (https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/8711#issueco...). If you still think there's an issue here, I'll direct Balazs to this post.
- For RN, I remember the issue you cited stated that using Object.finalize is 430x slower than having no finalizer, which sounds really bad until you realize we're talking about 430x slower than 5.6ns. Even though we may create thousands of these objects during a typical startup, this cost adds up to a couple of ms across startup -- since we had other ideas for more impactful perf improvement, we didn't take this on, especially since the proposed alternative at the time was to but the onus on developers to remember to manually free these objects. That being said, we've switch to using PhantomReferences internally at FB for this (which is strikes us as a better solution than either of the above), and hopefully will sync that with open source soon.

Re: bridge serialization, I'm sorry that issue fell through the cracks, I'll make sure that we follow up on it internally. I think there's a meta-issue around communication here on issues and PRs, and while there are a ton to follow up on every day, the RN team could be doing better following up on the important ones that need addressing from the team (I think the bridge serialization issue qualifies), and setting proper expectations on all others. I'll follow up on that internally as well.

I apologize on behalf of the team that it's been frustrating -- I promise we do appreciate all the help we get from the community and try to balance working on our internal goals and with the community as best as possible.
