Definitely; I was thinking that earlier while reading this post. On the one hand, you have newcomers who might have an answer no one thought would work, but on the other hand experience nets wisdom that often is more accurate than the newcomer's logic.

It is a tough call to make between what's happened and what's possible.
I assume they adhere to best practices, so no, MitM shouldn't be possible. If they don't we would've heard about it already.
+1. If this is confusing to you, you haven't spent very long evaluating an entire outfit as an ensemble, in a three foot tall mirror. I'm guessing most of the detractors don't realize _just how many_ people spend on the order of at least a couple hours a week figuring out how they look. This is going to sell like hotcakes.
First of all I agree with you, but let me state what I think the other side's argument might be. You can choose to eat healthy and exercise and reduce your chance of early death from obesity/health issues. You can also drive extra carefully, or take a plane, or not travel at all if you're that concerned about a car crash. With a terrorist attack though, it's mostly out of your control and literally anyone can be affected at any time and that's the scary part. That being said, people should take into account how minuscule that risk really is, but that's hard for the average joe to do when every attack is plastered all over the news for days whether it's something major or a lone gunman killing a few people.
Interesting quote from the article:

"I know what you’re thinking, foreign buyers! Well, foreign buyers aren’t usually census respondents so these are most likely domestic residents. AirBnB, pied-à-terre, or short-term renting are all uses I’ve heard from owners of multiple Toronto homes. The most popular reason however, is likely plain ole’ speculation."
Not to mention the chance that a buearocrat loses their copy of the master key, or has it stolen or secretly copied, and before you know it thousands of criminals have access to every home in the country. After the damage is done, we go through a large expense to re-key every house with new locks and the process continues.

I think it's a good analogy.
> If they don't want to deal with the possibility of bankruptcy, they shouldn't lend out money.

While a reasonable idea in abstract, it's of little value to Puerto Rico and its residents.

For the next few decades no one will lend money to them unless backed by some kind of collateral like government land or revenue proceeds from tolls, and their ability to raise money via other means is highly questionable, as servicing current debt has likely exhausted all of the obvious venues.

Every borrower in the municipal market will pay a higher price for this, as funds and other institutional investors will deal with write-offs and potential fund outflows.

Susan Landau's congressional testimony - with Comey siting one table away - applies to this as well. She explains in detail not only the problem with backdoors, but also how the FBI badly needs to update their methods. The quote from the NSA that legal access doesn't mean that access will be easy should have ended this brouhaha last year.

>The automation shift is not the same, because it will take over all the unskilled/low-skilled jobs, and there will be nowhere in the economy for the displaced people to move into. It is not really conceivable that all these people are capable of taking on jobs which require complex thinking, judgment, creativity, or other higher skills.

There are plenty of "low-skill" jobs that nonetheless require human labor in some form because of the ability of humans -- even less intellectual humans -- to think creatively and contort themselves both mentally and physically.

Imagine a robot that does everything a school janitor can do. That simply won't exist in the near future. Sure, maybe the janitor won't have to mop large floors anymore. But there's plenty of other work to be done around a school nearly always to continue to justify their employment.

I have an interesting anecdote to share, couple of years back I was working in an Indian branch of an MNC. The water from the tap on a wash basin had low pressure and it was frustrating to wash your hands but I guess we never complained because in India you just accept such minor inconvenience.

One day the VP from the American HQ came to the Indian office and yes he was German, during the intro meeting he talked about the low pressure from the tap. The tap was changed the next day.

I still remember that story because it taught me how Indians look at their surroundings and how a German looks at the same surroundings.

With a company bankruptcy, the suffering is limited to employees and creditors, who eventually move on to other companies. With government bankruptcy, one can't exactly shrug it off and entrust local affairs to another more competent and better-run government.

Sounds like normal debt raising. No one will give you money unless you have a plausible story of how it gets paid off.

Why do you consider it a good thing to be able to borrow money you have no plan to pay off?
Tariffs on the EU strengthened manufacturing employment in Germany, but many other EU countries don't seem to have much manufacturing and are poorer than Germany, yet still pay those tariffs.

I developed a serious allergy to what were called "debit orders" when I used to live outside the USA many years ago. You would sign a form to allow the merchant to debit your bank account every month for (say) a subscription.

Cancellation was theoretically possible by calling or mailing the merchant, but too many times, an extra payment (or two, or three...) went through and it was hell to get the money back. The banks were not much help - you would have to try to get the debit reversed, and it was no fun.

I think I had a few similar experiences here in the USA, but I can't recall specifics. Now I pay everything in "push" mode via online banking, as silly as that may seem.

I hope things like SEPA work better at revocation than what I experienced back in the day!

As someone who works on Closure Compiler, this is one of my biggest gripes with the project. Things are getting better though! CC now supports node's module resolution algorithm. It works pretty well with Es6 imports but not so well with CommonJS (mostly because the exports are impossible to statically analyze).

Within Google, CC is heading towards being a an optimizing backend for other less painful languages such as Typescript (tsickle) and the yet-to-be-released J2CL compiler.

CC does pretty well with these examples (our debugger is not quite as flashy):

What "superinvestors" are you alluding to here? Are you suggesting that getting investment advice from Graham is sufficient to reproduce the kinds of returns he and Buffett have had?

Most research is done on tiny images (224*224) and uses therefore large batch sizes (128). So there's a lot of compute to do. Even more so if you're using RNNs with large backprop windows.

12 Interesting Reads for Math Geeks
I get what you're saying, but calling it "like a computer" is a little misleading and feeds that weird habit amongst technical people of assuming that The Letter Of The Law is all that matters, when really it's the boatload of precedent, moral justification, and historical context that informs that law.

It ain't hard fact until a judge says it is, and even then it can be moved with a big enough lever. That that specificity reduces axes of freedom on which to have what you think is obvious be not obvious is why I upvoted you, because that's the super important part everybody ignores.
> Minimum wage only causes unemployment if the labor market is competitive.

Where did you hear that?
I think it's a pretty good idea. I notice how well people dress all the time, yet I'm terrible at dressing myself.

There's a store near where I live (it's a national chain) where you can set up an appointment to go in, be measured, and try a bunch of stuff on. They check each item to see how well it fits then help you pick things that fit well and look good together. They let me know that I've been buying clothes that were way too big for me.

If I could have a device in my home and get that kind of advice on demand, I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

If Amazon can pull this off, it's going to be disruptive to say the least. As I understand it, the back end is a mix of machine learning and human experts/trainers. They are going to get thousands of images from similar cameras, at the same resolution, framed in a similar way. That's machine learning gold. Amazon will see what I have and then be able to make suggestions of more clothes that I should buy. If this takes off, it's going to put a lot of clothing retailers out of business. If I were running Gap, I'd be a little scared because there's no way they can compete. The best they can do is hope Amazon will sell their clothes.

I'm not convinced though, that Amazon can pull it off. Not yet, anyway.
Apple's Paper Bag Patent Granted
"How does the school of mathematics of the University of Goettingen help make German factory workers competitive with Chinese ones?"

The search for precision and applied scientific discovery. [0] Enlightenment drives every aspect of German manufacturing. Factory workers are in an environment that makes things driven by these processes.

[0] An immediate example that comes to mind is the electric signal activation of the liquid suspension (magneto-rheological fluid) in the Audi R8. cf "The Audi R8: The Suspension" ~ https://www.audiworld.com/articles/the-audi-r8-the-suspensio...

This is an extreme example. It also highlights why Chinese/German manufacturing is different. One is aiming at mass market, low cost. The other high cost but desirable. The low cost German manufactured cars are measurably better than the Chinese.

The companies are more than capable of doing the math as they are signatories on the same contract. They interest rate they charge on the loaned money is based on their own internal algorithm that determines the risk of default on a particular borrower. Risk is priced into the loan.

I am glad you and your family were able to work your way out of the debt you found yourself and I commend you for it. Many others are not able too. Provided they did not get themselves into debt just to keep up with the Joneses' while living on credit cards, they should not be ashamed or made to feel stupid for taking advantage of a legal option that has been priced into their loan via their interest rate.

You talk of doing the math and taking a bet on your loan. The
lenders do the same math and take the same bet. They just don't apply any moral imperative to their actions.

Life happens, and at the end of the day their is no shame in looking at the math and your situation and determining that the numbers don't add up and its time to reset.
