Why should the rest of us get burdened? I'm not in favor of that at all. If you build something that requires more water/electricity and thus requires more maintenance/building more pipes or something by the city, then you should be the one to pay for that, or else you continue to get the same old service as before.

That's what I propose anyway. Yes, I am very aware of what a big problem we've had in the 20th century with private developers colluding with municipalities to take land from the poor, use it to build things for the wealthy, and get taxpayers to pay for as much of the related infrastructure as possible.
The reason for the commas at the beginning, is that it is easier to add a new line at the end. That is, if you forbid a "last comma". Traditional languages don't let you do

Html.program {
view = view,
update = update,
subscriptions = \_ -> Sub.none,
init = ( model, Cmd.none ),
}

Because the parse would expect something to come after that last comma. And thus you would have the last line being special and different.

Also, it is much easier to look at this

Html.program
{ view = view
, update = update
, subscriptions = \_ -> Sub.none
, init = ( model, Cmd.none )
}

And see if all of the commas are actually present ;)

Everyone is different. Everyone has different tastes. Real change is hard. Real change also takes time to implement. A hack is much easier and it works right now, and it also buys you time to make real change without the wait. For example I used to be late a lot for everything, socially and professionally. As a trick, I'd just adjust the time on my watch about 37 minutes later than the actual time. Yeah in my mind I knew it that my watch was set 35 minutes ahead, but I didn't know that immediately when I woke up and it would give me the push to stop messing around and get ready to go for the times when I was awake since it was a odd number ahead and I used an analog watch.

spoofing is largely defined in its relationship to people submitting large orders that they intend to cancel for the purpose of moving the market. so, while the rest of the market thinks there is buying or selling pressure coming from the spoofer's large order, the spoofer has private information that he does not intend to actually trade that large order. he simply wants to move the market towards one of his much smaller orders, and get it filled instead. then, he cancels the large order, and the market in theory should revert back to its old price, because the information that a large order will be moving the market has been taken away. now, what's important is that the spoofer actually has to send a large order. and even if he has no desire or intention of getting it filled, it's still available to be filled. so, if someone thinks a market is going up, but there isn't enough liquidity for him to express his opinion, he could wait for a spoofer to come along to inadvertently provide liquidity with a large offer, and trade with that offer before the spoofer has time to cancel.
I use Pocket for the sole reason that there is an interface on my ereader to sync pocket articles. (Kobo Aura HD)

If there was the same for Instapaper I would jump. I find it generally does a much better parsing job. Pocket occasionally completely borks on an article and will just redirect you to the original. Other times it often misses bullet point lists (probably thinks they are navigation). Whenever this happens Instapaper almost always handles the same article with aplomb.

Aside: Let me take the opportunity to plug a little app I wrote called Erudite[1] that can download articles from Instapaper and Pocket, convert them to an appropriate format such as EPUB or MOBI, and add them to your Calibre ebook library. It is a command-line driven tool.

Well obviously they're still "allowed" to do whatever they want - (usually) no one's forcing you to sell the quaint victorian and move into the new Gulag of an Apartment complex.

Everyone essentially agrees with you. The problem is that when ONE of these people wants to build the next Trump Tower on top of grandma's old cottage, the "live and let live" ethos goes out the window - everyone's at city council decrying mixed zoning or whatever else they think is "ruining" their neighborhood! There's a reason the term NIMBY exists, there's a reason we don't like living next to Sriracha factories or concert venues and don't just let people turn their houses into one of them at will.

We live in a society and the law is a reflection of it, especially in cities where a lot of people with different needs and desires have to get along. If you want to literally do whatever you want on your property, there's lots of places (in Alaska) that you can do that.

Hell, I actually agree with you, and that's why I'm eventually going to move somewhere where I don't get woke up by traffic every morning, where I don't get stuck in traffic, where I can play music as loud as I want, and celebrate Pagan holidays with massive bonfires until 7am. But until then, I won't live under any illusion of living in a libertarian paradise, because it's just not a viable outcome for city dwellers.
For businesses, you start getting synchronization issues that cause inefficiencies. "Oh I can't talk to that department because they are on shift 2" and instead of a quick back and forth you get day long response times over email. Or you have to wait half a day if the shifts overlap a bit. It's like having a remote office across the world, locally.
To me that doesn't sound like the curse of the "smart" people, it sounds more like the curse of the arrogant people.

Smart people understand that there is a reason that pointless / absurd rules are there. Usually the reason is not that everyone else is too stupid. The problem is usually that people have conflicting interests, and there just isn't a simple solution.
I doubt that, too. People will continue to move from the countryside to cities within their countries, but the days of mostly open borders are probably coming to a close.
"The right to swing your fists ends where another man's nose begins" should be the motto to follow here. (And not "The right to swing your fists ends a statutory 3 meters away from any places that may contain noses")

If there is a specific noise/shadow or other detriment that is clearly caused to an adjoining property, then OK, the adjoining neighbor should be able to stop it (or sell the right to complain as an easement if they wish). If there isn't, and it just "looks ugly" and "isn't normal" then there is no meaningful detriment and they should be allowed to build
I mean, if someone comes to you and starts explaining their sexuality while you are bagging their groceries, they are over-sharing, sure. Has that happened to you? It definitely hasn't to me.

I find your post kind of hard to reply to because I've read it a couple of times and I can't really understand your issue. You state it's "obnoxious" to search for relationships, but that's a big part of life for most people, and it influences most of our human iteraction.

I think it's very easy to just take it for granted you can do literally nothing and people you are attracted to can take an interest. How many people do you know that met in a 'context where it's explicitly okay'? Virtually everyone ends up in relationships through casual contact that grows into more, in my experience. That's hard if you can't signal in those contexts.

Furthermore, it's not just that, but also things like gender identity - where it's partially about how other people see and treat you, becuase you want people to see you the way you see yourself. I just fail to see how it's so burdensome for us to deal with slightly new situations when it can improve someone's experience of their life so much.

Sure, people have private business, but some parts of life are public, and interacting with people is a part of life. I think to pretend that we can segment that all away and ignore it is weird, and only really works for people when everyone can make assumptions about you that are right, which often isn't the case.

Non-programming activities that make for a better developer
True, but the fact of the matter is that even if you had no idea where your employees lived, the location adjustment would likely come out in a competitive market because people from other low-cost areas can bid down the price, and you'll only drop out of the bidding when it reaches below your cost-of-living adjusted salary. The only reason the expensive markets can compete at all is because a lot of the top talent is concentrated there.
This is called the fundamental attribution error [1]. I thought it was a well-established phenomenon, but apparently its validity is contested.

You are lucky to have the option to choose. Part of the problem is that as a city grows, the average distance between any two points grows while there are more people trying to commute. It becomes an N^2 problem.

As you get older too you will find that other criteria define your willingness to move when you get a new job. Don't count on being able to find your ideal job within 10 minutes of your current home.
Unfortunately it's not up to "the U.S." to make such a decision; but to the current so-called administration.

Which, as we have seen in regard to just about every "decision" it has made thus far -- couldn't begin to care about rational cost-benefit analysis, as it is generally known.

yes, wal archiving would have helped (archive_command = rsync standby ...), but it's also very easy in postgres 9.4+ to add a replication slot on the master so that wal is kept until it is no longer needed by the standby. simply reference the slot in the standby's recovery.conf file.

definitely monitor your replication lag--or at least disk usage on the master--with this approach (in case wal starts piling up there).
Likely because your comment, while possibly on accurate, isn't necessary. While keeping comments on-topic is important, in this case, it's probably better to just let it be.
I want my car. I need my car for when I drive to places NOT in the city. Like visiting family.

Make it so I can still store my car (near) my unit. Also that there's a GOOD loading dock so I can get items to/from my unit and transport.

This might be a mega-garage at the edge of a city with moving belt people movers and giant commercial promenades that are covered indoor malls /between/ buildings.

It might just be more parking under the building out of sight.

I also NEED sufficient privacy. I don't want to hear my neighbors slamming the microwave around, food processioning, or cleaning. Nor do I want to hear that idiot above me who thuds around too much. Build it in to the fire and privacy codes that there WILL be walls of sufficient thickness.

Make that inner wall a complete full one, no plumbing or electrical/etc. That's where all of the insulation goes. That's the disconnect between units. Then /outside/ of that build the utility / facing wall that isn't for support, it's for finishing and routing of wall items.

The roof? I'm not sure how to handle that other than, maybe something similar.

Then, what I want, give me a good choice of true high-speed (Ethernet/Fiber) ISPs.

Also, what other people want. Do all of the above, but also build in PLENTY of FAMILY sized units. Units with 4+ real rooms and a common area. Also make it easier to sublet within those rooms for friends (this means the inner doors might need locks as well, and should also sound-isolate).
I find nighttime traffic inversely correlated with how safe I feel at night -- in the Transbay district, it's completely quiet at night except for that one homeless person. Whereas at Mission and 9th, there are cars and bottles and people running around everywhere.
To be fair, you'd also observe the exact same thing if black engineer salaries were artificially depressed relative to their skill level, since if you can get equivalent quality for less money, why not?

I used to be a compulsive Steam game buyer, but at some point Steam started showing me tacky anime-dating-visual-novel-high school-crap. I don't get it, what happened? I've bought a few Japanese shmups and a few fighting games, but that's the closest I can get to any possible reason why Steam wants to shove this sh*t down my throat that I'm clearly not interested in.

The store really has become useless for me, unless I know exactly what I want beforehand.

Vanguard Reaches $4 Trillion for First Time
For cities you might look to Singapore. Many people find that owning a car is not necessary when the externalities are priced in. Singapore's Certificate of Entitlement system partly rectifies this using an open auction. The current price for a 10 year registration is about 35k USD.

Some people still own cars but at least they think twice, and often share one per family. And not having so many cars per capita means non-luxury businesses must cater to public transit users.

The “smart people” I know are seldom bored, because they are constantly reading interesting books, are fascinated by an endless stream of ideas, can think about a number of hard problems anytime they like, and have the curiosity and empathy and enough basic knowledge to coax an information-rich conversation out of almost any interlocutor. YMMV.

The expressway + car infrastructure to support suburban development was not cheap. It was in no ways organic. It was supported by the FHA's race-based redlining policies and banks that gave loans in the post-war era to white GIs to build homes in white-only suburbs.

I find this interesting that people are looking for cheaper alternatives to Heroku and completely agree that Heroku gets expensive fast, especially for hobby sites. But one thing to consider is the value that Heroku provides.

Heroku automates the provisioning and configuring servers, deploying code to those servers, scaling servers, etc. It's more than just cheap hosting.

If you're looking for cheap hosting, there's tons of alternatives out there. If you're looking for cheaper alternatives that provide the same value, the search gets a little tougher, and understandably so.

Yep, I get the preference over a lang that can't do trailing commas, which is why I used the trailing comma style as the counter-example. In a compile-to-JS language it's hopefully possible to make trailing commas legal. They've been legal in JavaScript itself for a long time (ES5) [0]

> Also, it is much easier to look at this [...] and see if all the commas are actually present.

ESLint can trivially lint that you haven't missed a comma (including the final trailing comma). The style guide/ESLint config I use (Airbnb's) enforces trailing commas. If ESLint can do it, Elm should be able to.

True. But I think video is a really bad fit for learning code. For a start you can't copy/paste the boilerplate stuff. For a second, it's much more difficult to read code off video than from printed or digital text. I'd feel similarly dubious about a 'Learn to Draw' course delivered via radio.
Tossing in an idea: Why not use a rolling application process where founders can update YC on any progress they are making with their startups and an internal system ranks and reddit-scores the startups. YC can jump in and send a note to a founder any time - like an internal advisory board. When application times near, just send a note to the founders you find promising based on your scoring system and they can provide additional info like a video or join an interview if needed. This approach would give YC a lot more data and be less distracting to founders. If you want to reduce volume, just ping companies you know are not VC fundable and let them move on.

The deadline-based application process is distracting. While the application is helpful, and should be kept, the founders are expected to waste time and attention every 6 months wondering "but what if my next 3 out of 6 months are committed to YC". Now requesting recommendations adds just one more distraction. People who are committed to work on their project will likely apply multiple times to an ever-decreasing odds process.

If you keep the application open year-round we can just direct information your way whenever it happens and use it as our own benchmark. Just a thought.

The problem is that there is a wide disagreement on what a 'clear detriment' to your neighbors property is. We all have different definitions.

If you think about it, zoning and land use laws are just the codifying of things that are detriments to your neighbors. Obviously, no one is going to agree with all of them, but they are what society has deemed worthy of forbidding.

When one-size-fits-all PaaS doesn't fit anymore
Old ways: you trust a person. And You check.

New ways: you create very complex sets of syscalls permissions that can be fine tuned by using a Role Based Accounting or any Auth/Profile Framework.

The idea is that you got rid of the risk of mischief/compromission by containing the code and people by delegating trust to external stuff : companies, datacenters, external servers, an OS you don't own. But for delegating you use software to delegate en masse :)

However, now, your surface of attack is so big that it's impossible to do a full audit of your perimeter. And people focus on code/practices/network. You have delegated a lot.

For the sake of discussion what can be the next cost efficient approach for attack with that much smoke?

The downside of containers is the physical geographical increase of the perimeter to defend, and for SV to develop their beautiful code, a lot of workers (cleaning personal, transporter, electricians, construction workers, firemen) that are required in the physical world and are so impoverished that they are becoming a vulnerability.

Keep It simple, always attack where the costs are less.

Bribing a man today to access a physically a server, a router is less expensive than writing an exploit.

The obvious problem in the containers is the idea you can trust layers you should not. Maybe, your container runs in a datacenter where a worker infected a printer with a connected cam from home because he is to poor to afford a printer? Maybe from there you can compromise a router, and have a MITM on a VLAN used between 2 servers?

Who knows? But how can you know if you cannot check?

Backend: Node.js+Exress. Although I'm recently looking into serverless options (e.g. using AWS Lambda, etc.)

Frontend: Bootstrap for looks and CSS sanity. Knockout for data binding; it's a mature framework that works fine for small- to medium-sized web apps. If I'm to learn something new, I'd go for Vue.js, whose concepts look very much like Knockout and it benefits from virtual DOM rendering.
