There is a good chance you are right. With that said, privacy isn't important to Google and Facebook, but net neutrality is important to their business. I think if net neutrality repeal were in a congressional bill, a lot of big companies would come out to lobby against the repeal. That has a chance of making a difference, whereas in this case everything is up to Ajit Pai.

Also, if it didn't make a difference if you used a bill or not, why wouldn't the conservative FCC commissioners just strike down the privacy rules at the FCC and be done with it? My guess is because they want to make it harder to bring privacy rules back if a democrat president were elected.

You really, really need to back up assertions like this with sources. Whether it's true or not, it comes across as ranting conspiracy theory without them to anyone that doesn't have the same background information as you. At best you do nothing, the likely case is you get downvoted to oblivion, and the worst case is you actively hurt your cause, as people will have cataloged some of the claims as likely false based on the presentation and source, so future exposure will suffer.

Cite your sources. If you think the sources will be discounted by the people you are presenting to, make a case why they should not be, reexamine why you think they are trustworthy, or both.

Only one office uses the electoral college. There are a whole lot more offices than that one. Your point is also obviously nonsense on its face: if no one voted, then the results would be different. So surely some votes must count. Do no votes count unless the result is N vs N+1?
Besides the fact that communism didn't remove the worries about basic necessities, it also didn't reduce the burden to work - communism is all about full employment, so you don't get the time to be creative.

Additionally, there were few incentives for people to be creative (you couldn't benefit from your creative work), and also many restrictions on creativity (art/culture was directed by the state, freedom of speech minimal).

Private practices would indeed have their expenses arranged in the fashion you describe, i.e. with those qualifying expenditures counted as business expenses before pass-through. The caveat is that titling the private practice as the malpractice policy holder, so that the insurance costs become business expenses, exposes the corporation to lability, not just the individual physician. For practices involving multiple physicians, or which own/rent property to operate a clinic, this liability exposure can be undesired. Relating from a relative who is a physician, who has been a contractor and an employee, I have to stress the general point that professional expense accounting for doctors is quite unique, due to substantial involvement of insurance and regulatory concerns. It's not easily relatable to other professions. Likewise, doctors, despite making very generous compensation, are often still frequently struggling with their employers/contractees, or with 3rd parties like insurance providers, pushing costs onto them. Since telemedicine doesn't really exist in significant form, doctors don't always have the option of quitting and finding better work in the same city/state.

Excluding attacks on US military forces engaged in post-invasion occupations, I'm pretty sure there were more terrorist attacks (total and foreign-origin) targeting the US in the Nineties than the 2000s, or, on a year-for-year basis, the portion of the 2010s that we've seen so far.

The embassy bombings, the attack on the USS Cole, the WTC bomb attack, and the Oklahoma City bombing were all notable terror attacks on the US in the 1990s.

The implementation is retarded. Last week my providers' iSCSI fabric suffered a glitch, which hosed a whole bunch of servers for hours because systemd refused to boot when it found the volumes not present. These were in no way critical to the operation of the stack. However, some moron somewhere decided that locking the system for 5 minutes on boot, and then simply refusing to boot properly, when everything required to boot is actually in place and OK is the correct course of action. I have enough of that kind of deranged thinking to deal with coming from Windows, I don't need it from my Linux machines.

Systemd sucks for servers. It might do a lot of nice fancy tech stuff, but it is extremely poorly thought out for use on the server.

This will be tricky for banks and hedge funds etc. These firms typically, in London at any rate:

- never quote a salary (or even a range) for a job opening

- following many interviews any offer is always based on prior "comp", of which you will have to provide 3 years of info (base, bonus, deferred awards, retention awards, benefits etc) plus, of course, documentary evidence to support. HR departments start squealing if uptick is a greater than 20% increase, although some people do manage higher (anything over 30% is almost unheard of, except for a handful of big producers)

- they go through your background with a fine toothcomb and check EVERYTHING you supplied on your CV and in the screening questionaires you have to complete. They employ specialist third party agencies to do the research on you.

If you do not comply with this you simply won't get hired. It is universal and practiced everywhere in finance, I've never heard of anyone not being subjected to this.
Something like Many Worlds is necessary to explain what it means for something like a wavefunction to collapse. Although it may multiply entities, that doesn't mean that it does so unecessarily. The trade-off is that new physical laws aren't introduced when doing so, and with other theories, you can say that introducing new laws is unnecessary, with respect to Many Worlds.

As a person who this article is saying should be empowered to have more choice, choice is a dog whistle for Not Invented Here. The people you employ to build your software will often make the straight up wrong choice when given the opportunity, and a lot of that time the "choice" will be to homebrew a solution that already exists elsewhere, because it's perceived as simpler than taking the time to understand an existing technology.

The reasons that get hand waved away in this article are exactly the reasons you can't ignore consistency across teams. There is value in having just one library that multiple teams use to communicate via HTTP to various services, there is value in members of different teams being able to work across projects due to the similarities in infrastructure. If each team has their own client library for communicating with a service, that's work you've paid for twice, or more.

I clicked on this article thinking it would be about choice within the prioritized stack on what to build and when, because that is valuable. Letting the folks building the stuff decide which things to build first is much more valuable than letting them pick between Postgres and MySQL, or memcache vs. redis, etc. (just examples, don't get too wrapped up in them).

Sure, we can sit here and come up with exceptions to choice, and yeah I do like being able to choose my IDE, the OS I develop on, etc., but those choices are totally different than which relational database I use, or which web framework I develop with. There, I don't think choice is good, at least not for everyone. Maybe this is written for my boss's boss, I dunno. But as for me, the dev writing the code, I don't really want me (or my colleagues) to have all that much choice.
I appreciate your points about the mathematical side, but what about the physical side? What is the embodiment of the energy that is being infinitely divided? We know of matter, dark matter, and dark energy. Is there a fourth form of energy?

What is the physical explanation as to why they don't interact? I.e. does gravity not travel along that space-time dimension? Is there a second time dimension? Are the universes created infinitely far apart?
Interesting. Occam's Razor says "don't multiply entities beyond need", not "don't multiply types of entities beyond need". Of course, you could argue that types are entities too. So many worlds minimizes entity types at the expense of total entity count.
The Year So Far: 2nd Warmest in U.S. History
Pilot wave theory still requires the wavefunction to exist, with all the same detail as many-worlds, all the same computations. It just then picks a particular timeline and declares that this one is real, these are real particles, and everything else is shadows on the wall. It's thus incompatible with computationalism.

I consider this scenario improbable.

Anchoring only works in this way if there's no definitive market value for what you're selling. I know what a software architect commands in my geographic area.

Given the internal and logical consistency apparent in this life, it stands to reason the Boltzmann brain would have to be simulating the entire thing -- the thought processes of other people, countries, wildlife, the movement of the stars, and so on.

I'm a bit skeptical that this will have a real impact. It may stop employers from asking, but it does not stop them from low-balling someone based on race/gender, etc. HR departments calculate this in to their offers already.

Don't get me wrong, I think this will help some folks and is a great step forward. People who know their value and what the employer pays will surely benefit (or great negotiators). But for the people this is touted to help, they can still very easily be kept in the lower-end of the pay scale.

It seems to me that the only way to close the pay gap is to have employers release what they pay. That in itself is a tough thing to write legislation for. In my mind, it would need to take into account experience, actual role/leveling, etc. A lot of it is subjective and easy to manipulate to help the employer. And of course, if we just release a straight list of all employees' salaries (with the details needed to calculate where you fall), you may run into privacy concerns.

9-6 is 40 hours/week with unpaid lunch, and pretty standard in US tech jobs as far as I know. Asking the team to sometimes work 45 hours during busy times seems reasonable to me.

I am not sure exactly what you are asking for. Companies OK with working 35 hour weeks?
Everyone should know about Conway's Law [0], especially in the age of microservices.

I currently work in an environment where there is virtually no central technical management. There are groups of 2-4 developers who roam around their department's problem space, making whatever choices they want.

If someone doesn't like the interface on one microservice, they fork the code and make a new one. This leads to 5 microservices that accomplish the same thing, and 5x the maintenance burden whenever something changes. I've derisively called these "nanoservices", but I need a more offensive term.

People intentionally choose techs that no one else in the company has used, trying to cement their position and hedge up potential competition or unwelcome cooperation. They also select technology for the best PR effect, being able to say "We're being like Google today". The result is a whole mess of different stuff running throughout production, each needing its own backup system, etc., which, to be honest, does not always get installed.

It's a disaster.

The author's contention is that giving more choice to teams is better because it makes them feel more ownership in their product. That's fine, but do recognize that this is a psychological solution to a management problem. The job of the manager is to actively control the psychology of employees and the structure of the organization such that employees are happy to do things that lead to cooperation, not to allow employees to always get their way.

Without a central coordinating force and everyone's acknowledgement that some compromise and sacrifice is necessary, everything falls apart quickly.

Pretty much. It's batch learning; they train small batches on the phones and upload the differences. It looks like they have a fancy way to keep the data compressed, train during ideal times and encrypting the data until it gets averaged into the model.

Uber is a cool idea, but it's pretty hard to judge demand when you're subsidizing the price. I'm skeptical that they'll be able to simply "turn up prices" once they've captured the market.

How much of Uber's value comes from it's self-driving fleet potential, which might be starting from scratch?

I'm sure that there's at least one that has tried that. But they wouldn't last very long. There are some that MitM HTTPS and substitute ads. And there's one that routes traffic from one user through other users' uplinks, and then sells those routes as a botnet-like service.

That's why you want to avoid free VPNs. Established VPNs have valuable reputations to protect. And about trust. When you use a VPN, you're trusting it as much as you'd otherwise trust your ISP. The point is, you use a VPN when you can't trust your ISP.

I read a linked article on here recentlyish that made an interesting note about the impact of Google being an advertising company: Android is Google's effort to create a defense moat by blasting a 100-mile crater around their ad properties. They can't turn Android into Broadway or a popup factory, but they can carefully court the DoJ (who fired the antitrust case at Microsoft in the 90s) and creatively push the boundaries.

Looking at it that way, Google have little incentive to rock their own boat.

There's also some interesting ponderation to be had considering why Android BSP propagation/vendor branding works the way it does in light of the above. Absolute device control (aka a flagship device) is likely only an option for Google (and Microsoft, thinking about it!) because of the competition; in fact now I wonder how fine the line is that Apple's skating (although I imagine the competition is what keeps them going as well).

In any case, I see Fuchsia as Google's equivalent of Microsoft Singularity. I'm trying to figure out what kind of point they're making by developing it in the open; they've likely gone through a hundred similar initiatives internally, as did/have Microsoft. Although now I think about it, Google do seem to have some practical business/real-world targets to hit with this (IoT is the likeliest actual hit) so maybe they're just publicizing it for that reason.

Regarding the openness of the kernel, all I can do is hope like mad that the kernel generally stays open on production devices (in "end-user" mode), or that there's some sort of developer option (and hardware, if necessary) available. And I can only hope like mad that Google figured out and appreciate the massive value of an open device, and don't do anything monumentally stupid. Fuchsia has an open repository, at least, which is a very nice start.
