I have a subscription to the WSJ. I also subscribe to The Economist. You can read the NYT for free easily, although if I were willing to spend more money I would gladly support their work, but I already spent over $300 in annual subscriptions.

I also like how the economist and the WSJ apps have weekly and daily editions respectively. The NYT app is one continuously updating feed.

>We could get there by degrees in an aggressively unfettered market.

Don't you mean the heavily regulated market we have now that prevents new ISPs from easily servicing customers? The entire reason ISPs can behave like this is because customers realistically have no alternatives.

Look at how Comcast behaved in markets where Google Fiber showed up. They often increased bandwidth and reduced prices effective immediately to try to keep customers. An 'unfettered market' would be one where an ISP doesn't have to spend years negotiating with city councils just to get the privilege to put fiber in utility tunnels where local cable companies already have it.
> Among democracies, degree of proportionality of representation is pretty directly correlated with popular satisfaction with government

While dual or multiple parties can affect this, the degree of representation currently in the US is currently more of detriment to finding a middle ground.

The average member of the lower house has around 650K constituents more then any senator did at our founding. The US Constitution was suppose to allow the House to grow and expand as the country did, however Congress passes a law setting the limit of members to the House almost a century ago.

If we multiply the House by 10, each member represents 65K we are still within the Constitution and will get closer to what you are stating then a complete overhaul. This has the effect of give more representation to people and makes it more likely to get to a middle ground. As an example a district votes 60% for one party in the current system results in 40% being unheard. With a 10x, keeping in mind it wouldn't really work entirely we have, 6 members that agree with the 60% and 4 members that agree with the 40%. It's not going to be that exact but hopefully you get the idea. This is going to decrease the power of each member of the lower house to state "Mandate" and force getting closer to middle ground.

In the 60/40 example it is mostly likely gerrymandered or a state with a single member in the House which results in no general election. The district is already assumed to win the general and thus the primary becomes the real election which is nominally 50% of the a general election. So in the current system 30% of the 650K in our example district effectively elect the member to House. Given typical 50% voter turnout we then can say that basically say that about 15% of of a district pick the representation. So in our example 98K are represented fully and 552K people are under represented. By scaling that back we would probably have less gerrymandered districts but even in this extreme we have 10K people vs 55K people and may even be able to increase voter turnout since a vote actually matters at this point. In my district my vote is worthless, I still vote in primary and general, but I live someplace more gerrymandered than the 60/40 it's closer to 80/20.

Actually, how would you do a syscall in Brainfuck? Its only way to interact with the outside world is through "input byte" and "output byte", and that does not give you the ability to do arbitrary syscalls. As far as I can tell, arbitrary syscalls are impossible to do in Brainfuck (which is why that one person made a fork of Brainfuck with added syscall support).

Of course, syscalls are not related to Turing-completeness in any way. Turing-completeness means that the language can express any computation which is possible to do on a Turing machine. Turing machine computations can not have any side effects, and syscalls are a kind of side effect. Therefore, having syscalls is not necessary for a language to be Turing-complete.

Your last idea is a good idea but more work for the list editor.

> As an immigrant, I've seen many immigrants who have absolutely no interest in the culture or society of the country they immigrated to.

Okay, if you say so, but that's not what I was disputing.

> Most people just want to get a citizenship because their own country's passport sucks and their country's economy and education and health care sucks.

IMO, the economy, the education system, and the health care system are fundamental to society, and if these suck, then moving out and immigrating into a better country sounds like a perfectly reasonable choice to me. Immigrants are trying to secure the best futures for their families.
As someone who switched away from all Google products, including Gmail, I can definitely say it's worth the cost to me. In fact, I'd pay more than the current rate, now that I've had a chance to really use the service. It is fluid and fast in every browser I've thrown at it, including the work-required IE10.

In my opinion, the only thing they could do better is to provide an API for their file storage module, and I believe that is in the works.

You get what you pay for, and while Gmail is a good web client it is far from the best. Fastmail beats it hands down as far as I'm concerned.

Analysis from the Identity Project (PapersPlease.org):

"...In the case of Delta Flight 1583, we don’t know what would have happened if a passenger declined to answer questions, declined to show ID, or tried to walk past the CBP officers and leave the plane. Some of the passengers might perfectly legally have passed through TSA checkpoints and boarded the flight without having or showing any ID, as people do every day.

It’s unclear whether a court would find that, in the circumstances depicted in this photo, a reasonable person would have felt free to leave without answering questions or showing ID documents.

The Supreme Court has also ruled that law enforcement officers questioning and searching passengers on a common carrier are not required to tell you whether you have to comply with their “requests”, or to tell you whether you are free to leave.

The only way to find out whether you are required to answer questions is to stand mute. The only way to find out if you are required to produce or hand over documents is to keep them out of sight and not to hand over or open your bags or put your hands in your pockets. The only way to find out if you are free to leave is to walk away. The only way to find out whether government agents will allow you to exercise your rights is to exercise your rights. Only then are you likely to be found to have standing to challenge any infringement of your rights.

So far as we can tell, all the passengers on Delta Flight 1583 produced and handed over documents that the CBP officers found acceptable, and were then allowed to leave. So we will probably never know whether the courts would have upheld the legality of the CBP officers’ actions."

Tesla is freaking brilliant. Perfect example of vertical integration. If Apple can do this with iphones, Tesla should be able to pull it off with their cars. Though Apple had a lot more money to handle the associated customer service. Tesla does have the tech and the stores to pull off an Apple. And feedback from insurance runs should give them data on improving the cars. Plus they can prevent insurance companies from sellers loss runs on Teslas to competitors.

Edit - Current car insurance products in the market are probably not suitable for autonomous or electric cars as they are based on some very old data. There is little data available in the market for these kind of cars. Insurance products usually need 3 years of loss runs to create an insurance that fits that data. So current insurance companies are stuck with charge more for variation possibility

> Also, many of the crap-sellers will bend over backwards to get you to remove or update a negative review. Don't do it. You would be complicit in tricking your fellow customers.

Definitely had this happen a couple of times but with seller feedback. Not necessarily because the product sucked (bought some books for my mum) but because the seller was garbage.

In one circumstance, it was a difficult to find book (no new stock, out of print), so I purchased one that had the highest quality listing for used stock ("excellent condition," "like new" etc). When she got it, it was torn, slightly loose binding, but readable (no more than fair condition, IMO); so I left a review stating such, indicating that the condition description didn't match the item, and I wouldn't buy from that seller again.

The seller, of course, wasn't happy about that and demanded that I remove it. I suppose I could've filed a claim with Amazon if they pushed the issue, but they didn't. It certainly wouldn't have been worth the hassle.
I spent my college years pretty invested in computer games, mostly dota.

I stopped when I got a job that I actually wanted to have. For a while I tried to do both, and did. But I was exhausted all the time. Computer games are not passive entertainment (for me anyway), they require a lot of energy.

If I could invest 2 hours a day into a computer game, I'd like that. But I can't. Even aside from the energy requirement, I have trouble playing games casually. Performing poorly at something bothers me and the only way to improve is to invest more time (than 2 hours).

Anyway, I think this is an uncommonly good article. Computer games taught me that value is totally subjective. You have to pick your own goals, and you'd be making a mistake to adopt the goals of the people around you just because they outvote you.

I found value somewhere else, but there's a large segment of the population working boring, low paying jobs that they hate. For some of these people, games will provide far more value than what they're getting out of work. And that's totally fine. It's life and life only.

Being against the war after it started is utterly irrelevant.

If you remove that from your defense of him, there is nothing left.

He was weakly in support of the war before it started. That is a fact.

When he says he was against the way, he says it to differentiate himself from the people who voted for it.

When he does that, he is lying.

There is no evidence whatever to support any other conclusion. Anything that comes from after the war was in progress is of no relevance.
> There is no "right" or "better" yet you keep saying advertising is worse somehow.

Yes. Advertising is worse. It is a net loss to society, necessary for structural reasons of competition between companies but otherwise nearly valueless in comparison to the human energy and time devoted to it, and with significant negative externalities for all of society. There are many industries that are better than advertising.

This is why it isn't rated as one of most people's favorite feel-good industries, even though you claim to think that's irrelevant.

Take the money out of the equation and ask yourself how many people would still be working in advertising if we lived in some sort of Star Trek world where people decided what to do based on their abilities and what is best for society.

> Every industry makes progress that is felt everywhere else. That is the point. Advertising has moved the entire internet into the commercial age and allowed the absolutely vast amount of content today, not to mention the success of every major business that you rely on and work for.

You're arguing in defense of advertising, but I think you've painted yourself into a corner here. Yes, in some butterfly effect way, every industry affects everything else, but the scale is not always the same, and not every effect is positive.

What would have happened to the Internet without advertising? We would still have e-commerce because it is tremendously efficient, but we wouldn't have banner ads, or spam. We would still have content, because people like to create and share, but we wouldn't have fake news sites (the ones that were built by teenagers for the ad revenue) or Buzzfeed, Outbrain, and all of the rest of the shit content that exists only to game advertising. Would we have Google? Youtube? Facebook? Maybe with different business models.

If you look at the actual impact of advertising on society, it's not easy to argue that it is one of the better industries. So I can understand why you took the approach of trying to say that all industries are really the same, and anyway it's all just beliefs which you say don't matter. But that argument doesn't hold up.

I'm curious where you would draw the line beyond which people in an industry become responsible for what their industry does, or if you draw that line at all.

I'm in the same boat @BeetleB. Sold a line of private label toys on FBA. Not a run-away success but definitely a great introduction to the market. My family members are also FBA sellers.

The thing that most people don't realize is that Amazon is moving away from selling everything itself. As stated by Ben Thompson in his excellent
"Stratechery" blog (paywall):

> "...I wrote about the ongoing transformation in Amazon’s e-commerce business: while Amazon was originally a traditional retailer that bought products from manufacturers and wholesalers and then sold them on to customers, the company has been shifting to a marketplace model, wherein 3rd-party retailers sell to users on Amazon’s site through a program called Fulfillment by Amazon."

For some direct proof, check out the highlights from the 2016 Q4 earnings report:

- Sellers on Amazon’s marketplace accounted for 49% (!!!) of units sold during the fourth quarter

- Fulfillment by Amazon delivered more than 2 billion items on behalf of sellers in 2016 and the number of active FBA sellers increased by 70 percent.

In short, Amazon is in a good spot by creating the marketplace. They own the audience. Sellers on FBA "borrow" that audience & Amazon logistics in return for storage and sales fees. No need for Amazon to sell everything. FBA sellers do that for them.

FYI for any online sellers out there: if interested, I curate an eCommerce newsletter for the small-scale seller covering Shopify, FBA etc. at http://www.privatelabelweekly.com

Full SSL just means there is SSL between your server and cloudflare. CF still terminates the user ssl at their point.
> Cloudflare likes to look triumphant.

Yeah absolutely this. They spin everything they do as some kind of heroic "for the people!" decision even when it's just about cutting costs or not having to solve "hard" problems. One example are DNS "any" queries. Cloudflare just decided to toss standards out because they aren't up to conforming to them. As far as I'm concerned, this Cloudbleed thing is karma, and nobody should believe anything Cloudflare says about itself.
Let me put my hat in the ring here.

Deregulation of access to consumers will result in cheaper internet and most likely faster internet speeds. However, it will concentrate power to those who already have it. Large ISPs will charge heavy bandwidth companies and only the largest heavy bandwidth companies will be able to afford the fees.

Those heavy bandwidth companies paying the fees will recoup the money through advertising. Remember newspapers and large TV media companies make the majority of their money through advertising. When companies rely on advertising, the users are no longer the customers. They are the product.

Further protecting the companies which rely on advertising will allow those companies to focus less on the customers and more on the advertisers. Companies relying on the allegiance of advertising will naturally shape their political standing to views of the advertisers. Remember also that advertisers are not paying for just eyeballs, but they are all paying for control. If a company starts moving away from their advertisers' political ideology they will lose revenue. Net Neutrality will ultimately give more control to companies that already hold power.

Just my two cents...
That is interesting - it seems counter-intuitive to me that the periods of apparent stability would tend to increase in duration over time.
