"An argument could be made that the entire capitalist system is built upon uncompensated labor"

right. time to move to venezuela.
Those aren't public resources. That's why they typically only let you in if you're relatively wealthy.
I was quoting the article. I have no opinion on the building.
I hate the term "woo". It's not much different from "libtard". How about attacking the particulars of an argument or discussion rather than ad hominem labeling.
I'm not seeing how a theorem about resource allocation applies here?
I think it's just rare that there's ever a gap as big as there has been with computers between the first prototype and the current consumer grade equipment.

Ignoring for a moment the per cycle efficiency increase (which is non-trivial and adds a couple orders of magnitude extra), a modern CPU is ~500,000 times faster than ENIAC was, which was itself a ~1,000 times faster than other computing solutions at the time, at a cost of $6,500,000 to $100.

So per dollar, you're getting 32 billion times the computer. It's actually more like a trillion times the computer if you count in per-instruction efficiency gains.

Yeah, we get better at most things, but almost no other thing have we gotten so much explosively better at it than computers.

You can argue clothes, screws, cars, shoes, whatever are better now than they used to be. Maybe they are. But they're not a billion times better per dollar. I suspect that most of them strain to be a thousand times better per dollar.
It's probably a mix of stockholm syndrome (with respect to peers and company) and the Dunning–Kruger effect (overall competence). Also with a heavy serving of denial.

And it's not a sign of a good engineer at all.
I think many people are well aware of all these news reports, and the general desire of terrorists to smuggle bombs onto airplanes.

But can you explain how moving those same bombs into the cargo hold makes us any safer? Don't we need to focus on detecting them in the first place?

Bear in mind that no planes have crashed as a result of terrorist bombs in recent years, while several have crashed as a result of (accidental) cargo hold fires... So there is evidence that bombs in the passenger cabin are actually safer.
>Anyhow, the government was simply echoing the advice of the medical establishment.

No it absolutely wasn't. It was echoing the advice of the agriculture lobby. The medical establishment sent its information in and the FDA altered it. And guess what? The food guidelines from this year were manipulated by the agriculture lobby too. http://time.com/4130043/lobbying-politics-dietary-guidelines...

I only skimmed your article, but it appears those instances were almost entirely labeling guidelines. Example: What constitutes "enriched" flour? I can see the value in that, but I hope it's clear that's very different from marketing enriched flour via the government provided education system.
Okay so:

- They think they are gonna live long, and need money.

- They are confident cash is gonna be worth something. (They aren't getting rid of cash and hoarding gold, for instance).

Fear? I'm getting intoxicated with the sheer optimism of this.
> Then stood over her with a clenched fist and yelled at her in a language I didn't understand.

Which language?
And if someone buys a child prostitute, is that the market saying that's the most efficient allocation of resources and the best way for the predator to outlive their dysfunctions? Insert a less polemic example if you want, same point; it's a total non-sequitur.

edit: if you can downvote, you can answer the question. I did my fair share of hard thinking about this, I come prepared, so until anyone has anything, this stands, and you'll either have to step up or live with that.
Yes, thanks for your accurate well written, and polite reply. I didn't reply myself because I wasn't able to keep my cool.
US intelligence chiefs don't trust Kaspersky. But why?
... because they are not dumb. [Kapersky's EULA](https://support.kaspersky.com/12915) forbids verifying his claims of trustworthiness: "You shall not [...] decompile, or reverse-engineer the Software. You shall not otherwise reduce any part of the Software to human-readable form.". Therefore, you cannot check or otherwise verify his trustworthiness. Hence, Kapersky cannot be trusted by design. In that sense, the intelligence chiefs' [answers to Marco Rubio](https://www.grahamcluley.com/us-intelligence-chiefs-dont-trust-kaspersky) in the Senate Committee were spot on: Don't trust Kaspersky.
Could this have promote an interesting incentive?
-> notice safety breach/design defect
-> don't speak up
-> manufacture and distribute
-> highlight defects to management
-> whistleblow if they don't recall
-> profit???

Or similar?

Just interested to see if anyone could elaborate or dispel this notion for me.

I guess it comes down to the character of the person?
Ask HN: How do startups build trust with customers?
Given that every technology startup's stack is immature compared to more established players, how have you gotten people to trust your startup? Is it in the marketing? Transparency? In the availability/speed/features of the product itself? Does it simply come naturally as you treat your users with respect? I'd love to hear what you all think either as founders or as users of various startups.

I run a bootstrapped hosting startup (SSD Nodes) and I'm happy to hear about what else we could do, too.

As a male, I'd personally prefer to live a life filled with traditional housewife work. Kids are fun, and I'd like raising them. I like cooking. Cleaning is pretty fun. More than that, though, employment sucks. If you keep me fed, clothed, and with an internet connection, I'd be happy as a clam, even spending eight hours a day doing nothing but housework. I sometimes wonder if there are others who feel this way, especially women who are mostly forced to work nowadays.

There's a strange sort of situation: In the past, women were forced to be housewives, which was awful. Nobody should be forced to be something they don't want to be. But now that women have the ability to do mostly whatever a man can do, neither men nor women really have the option of just "being a housewife." We kind of both have to work. I wonder if it would be better if, as a family unit, one person decides to do the housewife-type stuff, and the other decides to pursue a career? You could even switch off after a few years. That'd be a pretty ideal life for me, I think. But again, in most marriages, both people have to work.
Thanks for these.

The second article quotes a Reuters article I can't find with Google. Honestly in the Reuters article you provided I can't tell if she's advocating for open offices or merely pointing out that Apple is going against the trend.

She does have strong criticism against the notion that Apple has built itself a kind of island away from the community around it, however. Which is fair, I think.

Thanks again for the links.
I don't really like the NYT that much, but I don't think you can classify it as being a tabloid. At least it's usually well researched and substantiated for a good amount of articles.

Well then, if you're talking phones. The Windows phone is less likely to get a virus than Android phone. Like I said, it's simply a question of popularity - it makes more sense to target a popular OS if you're writing a virus.

For 2) as the link you posted pointed out it's by default in and for the few that like getting these notifications there's a out-in button. I'd agree that not having this be a default is a little bit bad UX but not having it at all is really bad UX.

Trade deficits as well used to be avoided because the difference was settled in gold. Gosh, I wonder why that was changed and who it benefits.
This is a poor "article." The commentary at the end is especially off-putting.

This http://www.businessinsider.com/a-judge-just-banned-ubers-for... better summarizes the case (i.e. mentions that Levandowski was already preemptively demoted removed from working with LIDAR).
After Byng's execution the British officer corps started acting like people who were defending their homes and families against a vicious foe. Like the people of Donbass in Ukraine for instance. The result is that the British would not give up in battle and would turn any slight advantage to their favour. This made Britain almost invincible.

Note that in modern Russia there is a military tradition "Russians do not give up!" which many soldiers, especially the special forces, adhere to. This is partly what drove the rebels in Donbass to stand their ground in the face of apparently superior forces. Combined with the fact that they were literally defending their homes and families, the Ukraine army had difficulty making and holding any advances against them.

War is one of those areas where ideology does not seem to have a role, but if you expand ideology to include the internal psychology of the soldiers and their beliefs and motivations, then ideology may indeed be paramount. It's the political ideology that is meaningless. This is seen in WWII Soviet Union where Stalin relaxed the strict Communist ideology in favor of one of family, motherland, ethnic spirit.

Well, the clock's precision plays a very little role here. Still, you are correct, a clock moving through time (while measuring it) is wholly analogous to having to move a yardstick through space in order to measure distance.

backing fairly common sense stuff with "actual research", like all things, can be done to excess

> Think of it like this: the takeaway of Bartels’ post is that something like a 1% exists. (It’s actually more like a 10% for the purposes of the study he cites.) I refer back to Occupy’s figuration for two reasons. One, I imagine that Bartels would be rather sympathetic to the liberal-progressivist ends to which this slogan was put, or at least not hostile. Two, it’s a figure that drew upon pop economic knowledge, that attempted to derive from the latter the kind of epistemic aura that numbers hold for Serious People. It would have been utterly natural for Bartels to have referred to this figure, to the social movement that buoyed it, to the knowledges that sustained it. Instead, he directs us to “a flurry of commentary” surrounding McCutcheon v. FEC, a case adjudicated well, well after Occupy. If Occupy was a movement touting an idea whose time had come, Bartels refuses to validate forms of knowing that know too soon, forms of knowing that short circuit the positivist time of coming-to-know with the punctuality of a deeply plebeian “Shit’s fucked up and bullshit!”

Absolutely. Also hilarious to me when a bunch of economists start whining about "stingy consumers" when inflation numbers aren't ticking up as much as the central bank hoped for. Meanwhile over half of Americans don't have enough savings to cover a $500 emergency car repair[0], but apparently they need to stop being so stingy and get out spend more to help the economy.

Which is a vacuously true statement because level 5 automation is practically defined as being better than human drivers.

The problem is that they basically have to perform better than humans in all situations. As soon as someone dies from a crash that a human could have prevented -- like the Tesla that plowed into a semi because it was white and it couldn't distinguish it from the sky -- it's basically game over for consumer trust.

If all we care about is safety then total automation is going to be fighting a losing battle against a machine assisted human drivers for a long time.

Government communications should eventually be made public, but they probably shouldn't always be initially or immediately public.

Whistleblowing and legal affairs come to mind -- whistleblowers need to feel secure in order to report misdeeds, and even elected officials have attorney privileges.

Those certainly aren't the only cases, but they're two examples where open probably isn't the right default for communications.

Intel's Turbo Boost isn't binary. CPUs typically have a base clock, a maximum turbo frequency that may only be attainable when using a single core, and numerous intermediate states depending on how many cores are active, including an all-cores turbo frequency that may be usable only for short bursts or may be indefinitely sustainable given a sufficiently lightweight instruction stream (ie. not much AVX).

As an example, the 22-core Intel Xeon E5-2696v4 has a base clock of 2.2GHz. With one or two cores active, it can turbo up to 3.7GHz. With three cores active, the maximum is 3.5GHz, and it decreases by 100MHz per active core until ten cores are active. With 10 or more active cores, the limit is 2.8GHz, provided that the chip is still within its power and thermal limits.
Can confirm, I worked in an enterprise where WoW participation was ... prevalent.
Who's supposed to pay these wages? To take a completely economic lens to it - not passing judgment - weren't these wages already priced in to a degree when middle class families were largely single-income by the male breadwinner, since those labor sectors largely excluded females, keeping worker supply low and allowing a higher prevailing wage?
This does not sound very reasonable, what about meetings regarding diplomatic and military strategies? Should that be public?

I don't know about the F1 game but I can take a guess on Gunstar Heroes.

I noticed the cubes are always aligned perfectly to the axis. And they have an isomorphic projection so the cube is always the same height (although that shouldn't be strictly necessary) as it's rotating. I also noticed the cubes never seem to get smaller if they are closer to the background.

Because of this you could just have a series of sprites each showing the cube in a different angle of rotation.

Now all you need to do is properly position a bunch of sprite (16 cubes + head) and it looks like a bunch of cubes that are actually drawn in 3-D. It wouldn't surprise me if they have some small table of the X/Y positions of the cubes precomputed so they don't have to do that in real time.

In fact since every cube is always rotated at the same angle you could just have one sprite in the system table and update it every frame.

That's my guess anyway. Clever sprite trickery.

It wouldn't surprise me if F1 uses something closer to what is described in the article (although much less capable).
To someone not familiar with the internals of V8 and its roadmap, this seems like a sound (albeit unfortunately timed) decision.
