He means they don't "exist" in a legal sense. They aren't a special category of things in the law that are separately called out to be treated differently than any other aspect of transactions governed by contract law.

Legally, you buy something under either express or implied terms, constrained by the legal system where you bought it. I'm not aware of any distinction made where a service contract doesn't need to be honored, but an "investment vehicle" is treated differently.

Because I have been looking at several different programming languages recently, I've been thinking a lot about naming. My conclusion is that the root of the difficulty is that naming works best when it is based on the way a community uses language to name things.

Specifically, the specification should start from how a language community has been naming things and be published when the community has reached consensus. I see the divan and think 'lounge', someone else sees the sofa and thinks 'salon' or 'family room' or 'den'. The commode/crapper/water closet?

Languages where one person decides tend to punt naming down the road. Code where one person decides tends to require documentation but encourage the idea that the code is self documenting.

The concept is mostly what parents want for their children. Every parent is different. Some have no problem taking a 10 year old to an "R" rated movie, others would not dream of it.

Anyone who has had young children will tell you that they can definitely get very freaked out by violent or "scary" movies and most parents do not want to expose their young children to explicit sexual content either.

I have no problem with mandatory labeling of violent or sexual content in movies or music. It helps me make decisions and it doesn't deprive adult consumers of anything.
There's a lot of people working hard to bring those conditions back to the workplace.

So there, that's what about one third of the country are led to believe about net neutrality. Just like with all the fake news recently, facts and rebuttals don't help one bit, and make the believers believe even more in their own "facts".

Good luck getting Breitbart and conservative radio on board with NN, they are fundamentally opposed to anything Obama did, plus are skeptical of govt regulations and there is a lot of money to be made from the cable industry fight on NN.

15$/hr for medical insurance * 40 hour weeks * ~4 weeks a month = 2,400$/month. 1/4 of that buys great coverage for one person which is ~3.75$/hr + 7.25$/h = 11$/hour.

Second one person can operate more than one pump. In a peak hour you can probably hit 50+. Also, one person from 10pm - 6am then 2 people from 6-2pm and 2 people from 2pm to 10pm means that 2 people per hour occurs when you have fewer people. Further, they will be doing stuff like cleaning during that down time meaning it effectively costs less than 1 person at night.

Also, many gas stations don't operate 24 / 7. You may have one on each side of the street during the day and then one shuts down at night.

PS: Small Gas stations average 500-1,000 people per day. / 24 hours that's 20-40/h on average.
So I am curious, like to a software engineer who has never learnt much of stats how difficult has it been for them using these things in the field to solve problems with, if they are any doing so?

>Steam ended that nonsense with a click. The amount of time you waited depended upon your Internet connection.

This is one of the main reasons why I consider Steam one of the better success stories in "fighting piracy", it has everything that's needed: Actually cheaper games due to discounts, ease of installation with a couple of clicks and imho those are exactly the reasons why Steam has become such a success over the years.

Sure, I also was not a big fan of installing Steam back then just to play Half Life 2, but let's be real here for a second: Even back then the majority of multiplayer PC games already had "DRM" in the form of CD-keys which made it impossible to resell them used or rent them, in that regard Steam changed very little.

Imho Steam has been the healthiest thing that happened to PC gaming in these last 2 decades. That does not put Valve in a position beyond doubt, but I sure as hell still trust Valve more than I would ever trust EA, Acti/Blizz or Ubisoft.
Sure, that's fair. I was specifically attacking Glassdoor and how low their numbers are.

What you've highlighted is what I've always thought Marx's primary criticism of capitalism was: that the surplus value (roughly: revenue - wages - cost of capital) from industrial production is deemed the exclusive property of the owners of capital. Following from this was the prediction that this surplus value would be used to attain additional capital which would accumulate in the hands of the capital owning class until capital entirely replaced labour in production.

In the context of the industrial revolution, IMHO Marx's predictions were ultimately incorrect. It turns out that steam is not intelligent enough to run the machines, and so production still requires the employment of labour. Consequently, up until this point, capital has enhanced the productivity of labour, not displaced it. Some of this productivity gain has even been captured by labour in the form of increasing wages.

I wonder if recent the advances in machine-learning will, in time, be viewed as the start of the 'next industrial revolution'? More disturbingly, I can't help but think Marx might be proven right this time around...

Sure, but the law doesn't care whether you sold me something as an investment or not. It cares that you sold me something under terms that were legal in the place where the transaction was made, that the contract was entered into voluntarily by adults with legal authority to make decisions, etc.

What you're describing is perfectly true under the terms of service of pretty much any email provider, but that's only because the contracts governing your interaction with those providers are written in a way that makes it true. Fastmail's lifetime plan has a different contract, and under that contract, it's simply not true that you're paying to use the account temporarily. You're paying to have perpetual access to that account as long as the company exists as a legal partner to the contract they signed.

Alpine is a really great Linux distribution and I have been using it since before the switch from uClibc to musl. However, it suffers badly from having very few maintainers and things break very often, especially if used on desktop as they don't have enough resources to properly test everything before pushing updates.

Even though Alpine is security focused distribution, you will often have to wait a long time for updates to software with widely exploited security holes, again because of lack of resources, and they are no longer able to depend on grsecurity so I don't know how everything is going to turn out.

Alpine is great if you want a lightweight, systemd free distribution and don't require a high level of stability, but I wouldn't have the nerve to use it for mission-critical things.

If you need mission-critical stability you either have to use a big Linux distribution like Debian and Red Hat Enterprise that all come with systemd or you can use FreeBSD, that's my conclusion.
In the same way that he lacks the genetic code to be "she", or to be an elephant (either gender); similarly he lacks the ancestry to be a black man (African American), even if he'd really, really like to be accepted socially and legally as a black man. Nor could he be or become a toaster oven, even if a judge in good standing declared him to be one.

In other words, it's a form of self-deception, with perhaps many causal factors, even pitiable ones. Beyond the scope of the individual, it becomes a socially enjoined delusion — a kind of "community madness". It's unhealthy for our society and a sign of deeply troubled times.

For my part, I would never knowingly refer to a person — in public or private, in written or spoken word — in a manner that is contradictory to his or her biological sex. I wouldn't be a jerk about it, but it's not something I'd be willing to do, even if the consequences of not doing so were most severe and irreversible.

That is bullshit. At $20k a in Warsaw (75k PLN/year, 6250/month), your take home is about 5000. The absolutely cheapest houses, run down shitholes from the communist era with few windows and lots of stairs, cost at least 600k in the city limits. That's your entire salary for 10 years just to cover the capital. With a 30 year mortgage you'd be paying half your salary.

It's been a long time since I've made less than $20k and I do well, but I have a 25 year mortgage on a flat, much less a house.

This is what I was going to remark on and maybe someone can clarify, but I don't believe the Army has any such thing as "unpaid active duty". The military doesn't just make up stuff like that. If you're on active duty, you're getting a check and accrueing time in service. Seems like sloppy reporting. Also considering:

Nice editorialization of the guidelines... Directly below that describes what is off topic:

It was an illustrative, mathematical example, of what I'm talking about.

If the shares are worth $3.5 million, how much do you think the guy leaving can raise on short notice? If you say anything over $100,000 you are delusional.

Investors don't even see the value in companies that are provably worth $1 billion. Even in retrospect you say, "well yeah history showed it is worth $1 billion, and the founder made a good case for that, but actually that is like a founder making a good case that he will role 10 "6's" in a row on a die, and then proceed to do that. The chances that he was going to do that are actually just 1 in 60,466,176 so the correct value of that "$1 billion" share is actually $1 billion / 60,466,176 = $16. That seems a little low - I'll give you a $100 for it. That's my annual budget for lottery tickets."

Investors don't value startups correctly and the idea that a guy can quickly raise money for a buyout of a stake in a company he's leaving borders on delusional. Plus, who would invest in a company with a negative signal that strong: that a guy who owns 1/3 of it wants to leave it.

There is obviously absolutely no way for a cash-poor founder without prior exits to raise anywhere near $3.5 million for a 50% buyout of a company raising a round at $7 million.

honestly - have you tried raising money around the seed stage? It's brutal, if everyone is on board and there are no negative signals of any kind.

I wouldn't be surprised if no poorly networked, cash-poor founder has raised significant (>$1 million) for a shotgun buyout of a company he's leaving, on short notice, ever. I might be wrong though, and I'd love to know if so. In my model it's really, really hard to raise money.
No that's fair enough.

Not necessarily - for example, in my own company's case, the company itself paid out the other partners. The company can take on debt to buy out a partner's shares (or a portion thereof) if the existing partners are willing.

I couldn't have afforded to buy out my partners personally, but with the business's assets, I could.
