As long as the U.S. (FBI specifically) have him on their radar, I don't think this is very likely.
So, I would say it's less about "everywhere" versus highlighting the best places. That's why there's a rating system involved.
It's just what you know, coming from the other direction I found Ruby ugly and plenty of warts of its own. But I'm aware this is just a subjective impression and they're broadly very similar.

Startup's seem to have always argued about price and vendor lock in.

You can code on Windows, with a free IDE (Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio Community) and deploy to Linux. Total cost: $0.

You can code on Ubuntu, with a free IDE (Visual Studio Code) and deploy to Linux. Total cost: $0.

And even then, you don't need to use VSCode, you can use Atom or Sublime. And jetbrains is working on Project Rider.

The 'vendor lockin' is now no more locked in than using Ruby or Go or any other language.
I can't understand it either, I'm absolutely exhausted from _one_ day of biking. But check out things like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans_Am_Bike_Race and the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcontinental_Race for the really extreme stuff.

There's a great documentary about Transcontinental race from 2015 at https://vimeo.com/ondemand/transcontinental which is well worth watching. Seems to be behind a (cheap) paywall now but it's well worth it as an intro to how it's done.

It's absolutely mesmerizing to watch for regular crazy people (as opposed to the crazy crazy people who partake) and there is some great behind the scenes footage on youtube. These races are great to watch in real time because you can follow every GPS tracker and since each rider chooses their own directions it can get really exciting.
Or you could just use anaconda and type 'conda install nltk'.

edit: most of the steps in the instructions you linked to are how to install pip, which is now included if you install the latest version of python. So on a current version of python the instructions should reduce to run:

I believe it was always the case. I can remember books just like this in the 70's and 80's, teaching one how to write a Pascal interpreter in C, or then a GUI system in Turbo Pascal, for example, which felt very much like this kind of introduction/tutorial to both the language, and the application of the language itself to an interesting component. Is this a Go book or a Monkey/Interpreter book? Its neither, but both.

This seems very much a situation of "public interest shaming", as the cheating directly harmed the legitimate runners of that marathon, and the marathon community has a legitimate interest in shaming/punishing/expelling caught cheaters (in addition to simply removing the fraudulent result) as a deterrent to potential future cheaters.

It's similar to disqualifications for fraud or doping in most sports - you don't only remove the current result, you disqualify them from some future events as a 'punishment'/deterrent.
It's on Brian Chesky's radar, I'm sure: https://twitter.com/bchesky/status/813800346116128769
Pretty sure crunch in a negative sense is a largely maleness thing. Ambition and combativeness (and to some extent pervasive dissatisfaction!) seem to be male-led.

These things have their place and if you get lucky (unlucky?) you get a Steve Jobs or perhaps a Travis Kalanik or Jeff Bezos, and you get a predator culture where the company is galvanized to beat the other guys up. Or you get a collective culture where this behavior is all you want and the main thing to reward…

However, looking at it on the larger scale, the more open systems (say, the birth of the personal computer industry that produced a Jobs and Wozniak) could be seen as less competitive, more 'feminine' boom times where cooperation and networking weren't eclipsed by raw power. In those 'less male' times more overall progress was made and the foundations were laid for the big dick-swingin' companies that would come to dominate. Perhaps without times like that, you don't even get the Jobs and Bezos and Kalanik.

Pretty strong argument in favor of open development: though even that will inevitably find ways to turn competitive and be directed by the most dominant. But if the principle is one of extending a common body of understanding, that remains more broadly available.

Why does some field need to mirror racial/whatever composition of the society?

If it doesn't, then it's pretty suggestive that there's a wider problem. Why do people from different backgrounds not enter that profession? Are they being discouraged somehow, and how can that be avoided?

Diversity is an self-evident good, in that multiple backgrounds and experiences result in a more well-rounded team. Trying to make sure you have that benefit is good sense.
Fair enough. How many americans live in poverty?
That's one way of seeing it.

Another way is people tired of career politicians, with a big government and a yet bigger spending, who doesn't doubt bailing out big banks and big corporations.

Exactly - the problem I'm usually facing with concurrent collection access in C# and Java is that the concurrent ccess wasn't even known or even intended. Having a mode or a special set of collections that guarantee that they are never accessed from two threads would be very useful to detect unintended sharing. It wouldn't help in scenarios where things are passed between threads sequentially but for that case at least the sharing is intended and can be reasoned about. The bugs are invariably in code no one even considered involved two threads at all. Having e.g a debug-only optional mode that verifies all calls to collection classes are from the same thread would provide a way of trapping many of these.

C# makes it very easy to avoid the normal threading issues by using Task<T> and other high level helpers - which is excellent. The problem I'm usually facing is isolating what the code within the task can "reach". Normally the main program code is a huge amount of code that must be single threaded. Tons of caches using vanilla dictionaries and so on. Now there is a small perf critical thing I need to do with Tasks. The failure mode is that the code from in the task somehow indirectly (e.g through some property on an object ending up in a cache backed by a dictionary) ends up accessing shared mutable state. Soparating the code used concurrently from the rest becomes a mental overhead. So anything that helps me do that would help.

I wouldn't call having a woman as a direct report a "close friend." The fact that you immediately reached for your employees as cover, makes me think that you don't have anyone else to use.

I find it doubly absurd to think that your reports would talk to you about these things. First you're in a position of power over them, and we're dealing with a topic that goes hand in glove with abuses of power. Second on a personal note, you appear to be completely dismissive that any such claims could possibly have merit to them. Finally, look at your choice of name. I commend you for not going with "pussypuncher".
The difference is Tesla has a lot of room to grow, and VW and the others do not. Tesla is about to 5x and soon after 10x its annual sales.

And as others have said, this is just about the EV market. But there's also the extremely high growth potential battery storage market as well as the solar market.

The nice thing about this is that in concept it doesn't require any involvement from the central government at all. The monopoly part is purely local. Any municipality can issue a bond to fund the network and then use the subscription revenue to repay the bond.

I did this a bit, as a younger man. It was fun, and an easy way to stand out from the crowd. Was nice to get the pat on the back from the boss in the morning "did you go home at all last night?". From a personal development point of view it was a valuable experience because it allowed me to get ahead of the curve and delve into some of the more intricate details of the work.

It's no way to live though, in particular on an ongoing basis. The cost is just too high. I still wouldn't be averse to the odd bit of overwork when it comes to the crunch but these days that's very much as a favour to my employer - and one I know is appreciated.

Then you have the wrong process in mind. AFAIK the breakdown of employees is very similar to the breakdown of graduates (and hence applicants). So there's no bias in hiring, all the bias is coming before (socio-economic status? personal choices?).

I know nothing about running and this post was like looking into a whole world I did not know existed, all of this tech used in something as basic as running, so many opportunities for entrepreneurs in every aspect of life. Every one lives in their own world, some people wonder why gamers like to finish all side quests in a game, others may wonder why someone cares about running marathons so much, using all this tech, but most interestingly of all, the lengths someone would go to cheat in a run, and the lengths someone would go to uncover it all. The apology on instagram if real is a bit lame.
> I don't really understand why one would actually want to work at Uber.

You make good points.

There's one that I'd like to add:

For me the biggest red flag is that this company's business model is based on blatantly ignoring laws that inconvenience them. And I should sign a contract with them? Yeah. no.
I have a strong suspicion the so-called tech shortage is just an excuse employers use to justify their own shortcomings.

Programmers generally want, in no particular order:
- a good work environment
- good pay
- interesting things to work on

If you don't provide one you'd better make sure you well compensate with the other two. In practice, employers just say "meh, tech shortage" instead of taking responsibility and admiting "yeah, we kinda suck, the people we'd truly want working for us don't even consider applying so we're stuck with the rest".
> people tired of career politicians

I've never understood this. Why would you want someone in office that doesn't know what they're doing? I get that people are tired of out of touch politicians, but wealthy people being elected doesn't solve the problem, only worsen it.
I did include that in my comment. The "system" was the list of things the app got access to if you installed it. And that's it. You couldn't grant or not grant permissions, it was just a warning of what was going to happen either way if you installed it. And essential apps like Facebook would ask for absurd permissions like phone.

The only choice you had was "install the app anyway" or "don't install".

Medical products can raise their prices because they have almost no competition, not only because there are very few accredited suppliers (much easier to collude), but also because you can't use that money for anything else, hence the consumer has no incentive to find a cheaper option.

Right now, rents are high, because people need to live in very specific places to get jobs. When you can live anywhere in the US and still get an income, you're literally talking about a market with hundreds of thousands of suppliers, offering way more land than what's actually required to live.

I've read it, and it can't be actually called a refutal, more "here's why I don't think so":

"Better Angels goes out on a limb and speculates that the chances of all-out nuclear Armageddon were higher during the height of the Cold War than they have been since the Cold War ended. Perhaps that is statistically naïve; I don’t think so."

"Taleb is surely right to urge us to think about the magnitude of events with non-negligible probabilities, and to caution us about our inability to assess such probabilities with confidence. Yet he does not acknowledge the problems with his own suggestion that “the emphasis should be on the weapon” ..."

And then Pinker compares the warning of the possibility of the "worst case" (which would be a nuclear war or even a new conventional large-scale war, now that the world population is much bigger) with the "bloated American military budget" and the Iraq war and the Patriot Act.

So on one side we have the nukes "on the short fuse" always ready to launch, in spite of the known errors (and who knows how many unknown ones):

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/take-nukes-off-a-...

and the response is, to paraphrase, if we'd worry about the worst case, we're doing the same error as the US going to war in Iraq.

It has no sense, as us taking steps to do something against the fatal threats would be exactly to remove the most dangerous paths for the fatal use of weapons by the very military structures that Pinker also recognizes as being ready to make much more damage than possibly necessary.

I don't think anybody can claim that our amount of care shouldn't be proportional to the scale of consequences that an error can produce.

> I agree that now she's come clean any identifying information should be removed.

The media is running this story with full personal information included, this stuff is the first google hit for her name and several more on the first page of results. Google's "summary" of her on the right side when you google her name describes this event and contains nothing else.

The point at which she could have prevented this is when she was caught the first time, now it's too late.

It is not possible to prove a person who got second place in a public event was a cheater and prevent their identity from coming out. Even if the blogger hadn't posted her pictures, she would have been identified quickly.

> Tesla is a $45B company right now. ... BMW is $56B (1.2x) What's the likelihood that Tesla is the next BMW? It's low.

This here. BMW makes more in profit than Tesla is earning in revenue. BMW sells 2.5 million cars a year, 25 times as many as Tesla. And both companies are valued roughly the same? How? Totally overvalued. If Tesla catches up to BMW 25x output (and this is a big If) would it then be worth a trillion dollar? No this is already priced into the stock.

> Musk has said that making electric cars is easier than making internal combustion ones. So, if Musk shows that electric cars can be profitable, won't everyone else add a huge amount of competition?

CWhat is not easy to make is a self-driving car and Teslas battery-Gigafactory also an advantage. Still the statement that an electric car is simple is troubling for a luxury/premium brand. You generally don't want to be in a market where things are easy to make and there is disruption by a race-to-the-bottom. I think the big car makers are more at risk having their lunch eaten by upcoming cheap car makers in China or India than Tesla.
I love that idea too! I'm going to believe that's the case
