That's not what the quote is saying.

First of all, the architecture of a service has important influence on the kind of speech that it will foster: for example, the 140 character limit insures that it's almost impossible to get a nuanced argument across. Second, the broadcasting model of twitter often leads to horrible dogpiles.

I am a huge free speech advocate, and I don't like censorship but several key decisions about the architecture of twitter were definitely suboptimal if your goal was building a better town square for the exchange of ideas.
Sed -i
-i is a "non-standard FreeBSD extension"

I have never understood the use for it. To save typing?

If we deny sed permission to write to any other file will it still work?

Could it be that there is an ephemeral temp file created? ed makes them, vi makes them. Is sed different?

What if the filesystem is a ramdisk? Does -i make any practical difference then? I always use a ramdisk as my filesystem.

I always found it easier to just avoid -i

This way I get portability.

The above applies only to BSD sed.

Not sure if GNU sed ever lacked the -i extension.
> In some type of enterprise projects I am quite glad that merge never takes place.

Surprise! Now you have 2 versions of an app to support, with twice the resource requirements.
Somewhat concerning statements on their own.

> “I thought once everybody could speak freely and exchange information and ideas, the world is automatically going to be a better place,” Williams told the Times. “I was wrong about that.”

I'd like to see a more detailed look at why Twitter might not have been a good idea. I don't think that free, easy communication is a bad thing and I think it's powered an enormous change for good. The sentiment expressed in the quotes sounds worryingly similar to proponents of censorship.

I just think that Twitter is a bad way of communicating anything vaguely complex.

In my company we aggregate ALL public job listing in Tech companies in Barcelona & Madrid so I have some real data to share:

Barcelona doubles Madrid in number of Tech Companies currently hiring:

- Barcelona -> 299 startups offering 776 jobs

- Madrid -> 157 startups offering 359 jobs

As for language:

- Barcelona -> 90% of the job offers are written in English rest in Spanish. This could mean that English is more or less a required language for all the jobs in Barcelona

- Madrid -> 50% of the offers are written in English, the other half in Spanish.

About salaries, making a quick SQL query in the job offers database shows that Barcelona pays 15% more than Madrid as average. Although I would say that Top companies in Barcelona and Madrid are paying the same.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you need further information, we have lots of data to share.

[Update] data shared comes from https://www.jobfluent.com/jobs-barcelona (Barcelona) and https://www.jobfluent.com/jobs-madrid (Madrid)

You're twisting his words, he doesn't say anything about censorship. He said that he hoped the technologic capabilities of Twitter would improve the world for the better and in his opinion they haven't.

He doesn't say anything that thus people who didn't agree with him should be silenced...

nyt gives you get 10 articles for free per month, although I decided to pay $10 per month. Their quality of journalism is pretty good for what they charge.
Do you at least pay those that give you the free one?
This is an astoundingly relevant answer to my question and thank you for taking the time to tell your story. I don't have an answer yet but this gives me something to think about. I share the same interests outside of the office and the same feeling you had once the bubble burst. I was hoping to find some advice on how I could turn the experience I did have into something beneficial to a potential employer—such as the NPS—but thinking long and hard about what I'm good at, want to do, and who might be able to help me get there is probably a more feasible route.
Also super handy to turn lines into columns. 'paste - - -' for example will take every three lines as single row.
The fact that Windows can't seem to have a sane system update facility continues to boggle me, especially considering that system-wide updates are comparably quite painless on just about every modern Linux distro (aside from the SAG Trifecta and some other oddballs) and have been for nearly multiple decades now.

1. He didn't say that free speech and exchange of ideas prevented his side from winning

2. He didn't even say that free speech and exchange of ideas prevents the world from being a better place

He's noting that free speech and exchange of ideas isn't sufficient on its own.

(That was my takeaway at least)
That Twitter, as it's currently designed, is an excellent platform for sharing cool links (science/ML twitter is fantastic), but it is downright deleterious for any subject where nuance is called for.

I think Twitter had a net negative effect on political discussion not because of free speech, but because it rewards bombastic language, point scoring, cheerleading and makes substantial arguments impossible.

How Trump used Facebook to win
Perhaps, but I think you're reading more from that comment than was actually in the article. I can find quotes about generally saying the internet is broken, and promoting medium, but not specifically addressing flaws in Twitter.

I think that is the real problem, but I'm hesitant to say that's what their argument really is unless there's some actual evidence. At best, it's not backed up properly in the posted article, to the point of (to me) being highly misleading if their problems are with the lack of freedom in Twitter for one.
The British police have just as much of a credibility problem as any other police force in the world. That is what happens when you participate in a cover-up of political pedophilia, as has happened with the UK's police force. There is no honor to be saved.
Having been there myself after becoming a single parenting dad, I can recommend a few things:

- instead of consuming, try producing small things. Personally I started out writing a daily diary. First thing in the morning next to coffee is writing. That gives a good impression of what you actually did.
- figure out what you actually like, what picks your interest in an amount that it can pull you off of procrastinating. I would recommend learning something completely new. I went off learning a new language, looked into two new programming languages, and started doing something that is the opposite of my day job.

If you want to try out Open Source:

- find projects you actively use. Improve them. Even making a README nicer is a start.
- find something that you can Open Source. Personally I went with pushing out a new OS project every week and do that for two months now.

In the end it is very simple: you have to reach the point where you are fed up with just sitting in front of social media, etc. That mostly means realizing that doing has more value for improving ones self.

Stick with it. And that is the hard part.

Parting words: if you lack discipline and fall back to procrastinating, reserve fixed times in your calendar for activities.

Best advice for the end: enjoy yourself. Be you. Do what fulfills your inner self.
Even apt-get at its worst is better than Windows Update at its best, though. I reckon that to be closer to the GP's point.

For completeness' sake, there's also MacPorts (and Fink, but I don't know anyone who's actually used it).

MacPorts is also hell for various reasons (not the least of which being the effectively-nonexistent integration with the rest of macOS, keeping its own little silo of an OS that gets huge if you install even relatively-simple graphical applications).

I think the key word in that quote, which you've overlooked, is "automatically". Allowing free communication may be good... but it can't "automatically" make the world a better place on its own.
> And yet. Like every I/O attendee I received a free Google Home device as part of the I/O experience. (I attended as an engineer, not as press.) But I don’t want one; I’ll be giving mine away. Sorry, Google. It’s not that I mistrust you. It’s just that I don’t want to have to trust any profit-driven megacorporation quite that much. Not Apple, not Amazon, and not even you.

It is very interesting to me why certain microphones and cameras are fine, while others are not.

Almost everybody carries one of both in their pockets or in their purse. However, it is a no no to embed a cam in a pair of glasses. Building a mic into a speaker is not okay for this guy, but consumer satisfaction is quite high for these devices. I guess to have mics and cams in your car is fine as well.

If it's about babies or security (door bells) it is also fine.

Augmented stuff on your phone seems a necessary predecessor before Google glass can come out for people like this.

It's some kind of anti-sensor attitude that seems to erode over time. I don't think it's about privacy, it seems to be about control. Where's the button on that thing!?

The positive lexicography project
You might be right, possibly housing prices could be higher. If in fact prices have stabilized or leveled out (it's sure hard to get up to date info of that kind), it suggests there's an equilibrium between increasing population and housing availability. The more housing the higher the population will go for any particular average housing price point. Simplistically, price = population/amount of housing.

I think an issue is building new housing attracts an influx of population up to the point that housing is not too expensive, keeping the average price point about the same. Conversely, outflux of population would cause prices to plummet, which has happened in the past during recessions and high unemployment. In effect, housing stocks then are reduced by being removed from the market, but that's not exactly healthy for the community either.

> I contend that the people moving in would outbid everyone for the existing housing stock, which would drive rent increases even more than rents are currently going up.

That's possible, but unless people moving in are much wealthier than the people already there, the price could only rise a certain amount before no one could afford it and sales would fall off. That's similar to certain (expensive) condo prices around here, but still seems there's a ceiling effect.

Your comment inspires me to talk with some real estate folks I know, it's been a while since getting their perspective on the market.

Fully agreed, but they've been running on inertia for the last two decades, but that has nothing to do with profitability. They're still printing money, every quarter and are paying out substantial dividends.

Obviously that can't go on forever and they're desperately searching for a path to a viable future but for the moment they are definitely in the black and will - as far as I can see - stay there for quite a while to come.

No I don't.

I and everyone else on the team enjoys the fact that broken code produced by offshore developers that should have been fired in first place, never touches the official development repository.

Those developers will eventually produce something that passes the unit tests and gets merged, instead of borking the build for weeks.

Should the process done in another form with code reviews and such, yes but that isn't how many enterprise projects are managed.

Note that I am only referring to those that can't learn to code even if we ELI5 them.

There are others on the offshore teams that are highly skilled, but like us onsite, cannot do anything to change the rules of the game.

I typically use those up on clickbait articles that I don't decide to read after all, and then by the time one comes along that I would read I get the paywall.

I'm disinclined to pay for the NYT because of its role in getting Trump elected. By refusing to subject HRC to appropriate scrutiny and by amplifying all of Trump's stunts and gaffes, the paper was useless as an authoritative voice during a very important time in history.

If the quality were more consistent I'd happily use the google trick to get the articles for free, but much of the content is seemingly meant to generate clicks from issues that have already been covered extensively elsewhere.

use self::itertools::join;

....
s.lines()
.map(|bline| UnicodeSegmentation::graphemes(bline, true)
.collect::<Vec<&str>>())
.join(|line| wordwrapline(&line, maxline, maxword),"\n")

error[E0061]: this function takes 1 parameter but 2 parameters were supplied.

Rust is picking the wrong version of "join". There's one in Iter with one parameter and one in Itertools with two parameters. Haven't figured out how to get the one from Itertools yet. The obvious syntax, ".Itertools::join(...)" gets "error: expected `<`, found `join`".

Without either function overloading or member function qualification, how do you do this?
This is along the lines of what I'm asking myself and what I attempted to communicate in my question. To your second point, what I consider my most successful role was being the "webmaster" for a medium sized retailer. A sports retailer with a very foreign culture. Turns out, I do fairly well when given lots of responsibility with little micromanagement. Doing that again is not something I'd discount as a possibility, though so not something I've thought to pursue again. Perhaps I'll consider this and broaden my IT related search outside software dev. Could be worth a shot. It would certainly contrast your last sentiment which I agree with wholeheartedly.
First, elderly healthcare is 34% of healthcare spending in the US (and healthcare is 16% of GDP) so it isn't be 20% of all economic activity in the US. And US healthcare is very expensive compared to other countries.
Second, seems to work in Europe and Japan (Japan has a very old pop and total healthcare spending is 8% of GDP). Maybe the US has the wrong healthcare system? :)
Third, the welfare state is not only healthcare for the elderly.

I have been a Ford investor for several years. This is a big surprise for me.

Ford has said they expect to have a fully autonomous vehicles by 2021 (link: https://corporate.ford.com/innovation/autonomous-2021.html). That always seemed too ambitious to me, but I welcome being proved wrong.

I invested in Ford partly because I think, unlike GM, they recognize an existential threat to their business and are trying to take steps to avoid it. It has been a horrible investment for me this far.
Apparently self driving cars are real.
why does everyone keep saying car sales are in a "slump". Sales are off only about 5% compared to last year, which was the highest annual sales in history. This year's new car sales are still incredibly high compared to the average yearly sales from the last 10 years.

Overall car sales have hit a plateau, you can't expect it to keep breaking records year after year, which it has done since 2009.

SUVs and trucks are still in high demand, it's sedans that have taken the biggest hit.
Where I live "I'll kill you" is a common way to express dissatisfaction with someone's actions and while explicit, it's neither serious nor credible. I'm sure facebook is full of such posts.
Twitter is definitely terrible for discussion not just because of the character limit but also because of the echo chambers it creates. I follow a lot of people on both "sides" and they love to make fun of the other through the most low hanging fruit possible. Both sides attack people for liking (or not being totally opposed to) some ideas of the other side.

I don't think there's many popular forms of social media that actually have nuanced, reasonable political discussions though.

EDIT: the only one I really know of is /r/neutralpolitics.
I find adding braces much easier then managing white space though. For example commenting out code, adding branches, removing branches etc.
If that is all he's saying I think it's pretty short-sighted. Surely Twitter has accomplished a lot of good.
Multibillion corporations with tens of thousands of programmers don't do things randomly.
In 2016 the US was still vulnerable to a Kardashian style PR stunt attack. Trump performed this attack over and over again and garnered an estimated $2B of free advertising from it.

Trump used Twitter to do this, but he could have used other social media. Trump's tweets were not newsworthy because Twitter routed them to millions of people but because large media firms wanted to monetize the hysteria created by the tweets so they had their newsrooms run coverage of each and every tweet.
The Ford family controls the stock with its supervoting shares. Their opinions are what matter.
