Which is something that happens. People miss opportunities to invest all the time. Mayer destroyed Yahoo and raised the stock price high enough that investors were happy. Totally different. All you have to do is look at the stock price from when she took over to when Yahoo got sold. I was a huge fan of her when she first started. I do not respect her now.
Sure (though the concept of wage-slavery is older than Marx), and I'm not necessarily opposed to that either, but it doesn't really justify the status quo.

18 to 21-year olds commit crime at over 15 times the frequency of 65+ year olds [1]. "Borrowing" unemployment from a voter's later days could be a savvy move if the costs of crime and law enforcement are considered.

To add to the critiques: the usable space on a 13" retina MacBook pro can be increased in the software to support up to 1680x1050 if I'm not mistaken. Further, there are apps that can extend that up to the native resolution.
Poor lady. It sounds like she may have been fully aware of what she was paying, she just never did any research to find out that she was overpaying by about 500x. Which, is almost as bad as never looking at your bank statements.

'Facebook blasphemer' given death penalty in Pakistan
Although no one uses eugenics to justify it anymore, there are still plenty of infants who are allowed to die because of severe birth defects that prevent mental development or give a high risk of early death. The moral situation arguably has greatly improved, but the difference between then and now is not nearly so clean cut.
I wasn't arguing that, I was suggesting that if it wasn't clear why the tsh level is high or low, to add on a t4 level check. Which is what is currently done, at least in the US.
I'm not so sure about this, I figure bus drivers probably make.. 40? 50? thousand a year. I'd imagine bus maintenance is smaller than that.

Luckily, using the power of statistics we can get results using only a small number of people that are nevertheless valid for the whole population with reasonably high probability. There have been some studies regarding commuting time and well-being, for example [1], that show that longer commutes impact well-being negatively. Sprawl tends to increase commute times.

So basically as long as a hacker wouldn't mind paying your phone bill for a month they could easily take over billing of it, then clean your accounts out, then cancel the number.

This is another one of those messy human areas where computer systems are either too strict or not strict enough.
The Model 3 is nowhere close to an affordable car for your average car buyer e.g. Corolla owners.

It's likely to be about 62,000$ here in Australia before any options or upgrades, so that's with no autopilot and the smallest battery. Still a luxury car, in fact, with some options expensive enough to trigger the Luxury Car Tax, which kicks in at $75,525.

When you can get a brand new Suzuki Swift for 15,000 you really have to ask yourself how much you care about electric.
How to Build an App as a Non-Technical Person
> much different than a remote HTTP/ReST API

does that make subprocess module like urllib, and these wrappers like the ubiquitous requests package?

I think it's harder than you say: a given tool like grep has an API the size of an entire website, and then depending on usage, has different usage patterns which different optimizations.

Also, a REST API user is consuming an API, whereas a CLI wrapper is consuming an API to implement another. Much bigger fish to fry there, I think.
This is my biggest issue. Updating is basically a case of install updates, recompile kernel, reboot with fingers crossed. I'm scared to upgrade to a new release because of this.
You can still have X-forwarding (by running a Xwayland server) while having all the benefits of Wayland for all the other desktop apps you run.
I use 'kk' a fair bit to indicate acknowledgement, over affirmation.

Your phone idea might be on the right track tho - for those of us who are so old that we used SMS before T9 was invented, typing 'kk' would be way quicker than 'ok'.

The Ultimate List of Web Development Resources for Developers
The real solution to this problem is to reference passwords, tokens, keys, or and other "private" strings with environmental variables or external config files, which are then excluded from the source control system. That way your super-secret stuff can never be extracted from git or svn. This approach also has a whole class of additional benefits relating to being able to run a system in different places (for example- setting up dev->test->prod staging servers)
The classic tragedy of Linux-on-the-Desktop: trying to gain traction by removing perceived "warts", all the while alienating user and developer communities alike. Result: more cluttered landscape that is even less of a target platform for desktop software.

Challenges Faced by Businesses to Hire iOS App Developers
It's a complicated software in a complicated world. It takes time.
As I have commented elsewhere for this article, there are other countries which require and record ID for every phone number and sim. I see this as more of a control issue (from the Government perspective) since it won't be used by customer service staff for security.
Also, giving tax breaks on luxury cars means shiftig wealth from the poor to the rich.
The Yahoo share price has increased substantially since she has been there (almost 3x from a quick glance) – nobody can reinvent Yahoo at this stage, if she was hired to satisfy investors then the majority of them are surely pleased.

Apps can be sideloaded on iOS really easily. There's a whole community of people (https://reddit.com/r/sideloaded) around modifying apps and sideloading them. https://ipasigner.io is an example - just click the app you want to install, go into iOS settings and give permissions to the cert, and boom you have a new sideloaded app installed. Takes less than a minute, no computer required.

It used to be even simpler in iOS 8, but Apple complicated the process a little bit for valid security reasons:
https://blog.lookout.com/ios-9-sideloading

The only friction is that the sideloaded apps will only work for 7 days unless you (or someone else like on ipasigner.io) have a paid developer account.

If you want to sideload your own apps, Cydia Extender is a great tool.

Most 2FA services that allow authenticators offer recovery codes. I keep the recovery code saved in my password manager, and if I ever lost my phone I use that to log into the site and then get a new QR code.
Not my experience at all. And even with good signal many heavy news sites take a long time to load.

For example this mobile speed test puts theverge.com at 21 seconds to load! That matches my experience. You can't tell me AMP is as slow as that. It's not even close.

In my experience AMP pages load in 2-3 seconds, even with bad signal.
There are over 7,500 known cultivars of apple[1] many aren't suitable for eating raw, but grown for cooking and making cider, bust most are bred for eating.

Satya Is says that he wants to make his employees jobs fulfilling enough that people would want to do it. He's not really discussing pay at all. Of course he's getting paid and they are getting paid.

So I've worked near corporate people who obviously hated their jobs. Being in a team with such people is not a good thing for you or the project.

Similarly I was part of a volunteer team that formed ad-hoc to save a huge programing contest. Every person was there because they wanted to be there. It was a whole lot of fun and an effective team.
Hmm, I'm missing your point. Are you saying that the definition of "rich" is "can live off their investments"? I would disagree with that.
> XML has a bad reputation due to enterprise-y abuse of the technology, but that does't mean it's a fundamentally bad idea.

The fact that the Javascript-world is still copying XML-techcology and ideas which was formalized, standardized and ready for use over a decade ago, should pretty much be all the proof you need for that statement.

But hey. JSON is new and shiny!
Well that true in Denmark as well, but both the city centers and the suburbs are pretty expensive, so risk getting pushed past those, and then you start getting into areas where public transport is basically non-existing.

It's really cool to see the natural borders of countries in much higher contrast than a regular elevation map. Especially the Alps walling off Northern-Italy from the rest of the continent and the way the Carpathian basin is surrounded by terrain that made it hard to invade. Makes sense that it was such a heavily contested area around the 9th century.
I do find it odd that this writer and many think you have to have 200k incomes to be rich. That is a lie. If you are in the high eighties, let alone over one hundred thousand, you are doing damn well and rich by most accounts.

Gated communities evolved out of limited access high rises. there is no real difference other than one has a lawn. it is the same idea. zoning laws are just horrid in most cities and they tend to be disguised with well meaning names to keep people from challenging them; first trying protecting of historical interest, then trying the environment foil, and finally insufficient infrastructure purposefully kept that way.

For the majority of us here we are rich. Politicians are the real one percent, did any party have someone running for President who wasn't very well off? Actually that would have been two of the Republican candidates had 100k or lower, even the left's favorite is worth near a million and has three homes.
> Imagine the day when worthwhile content with journalistic, artistic, or intellectual value is posted by machines

One way to cheat at this is to use existing intellectual discourse as a template, and simply swap out nouns/verbs with other ones, and change the structure slightly perhaps using Markov chains.

Another way to appear more credible is to generate sources to backup your statements. Wikipedia is full of links and footnotes which prop up their entries. All that's needed is to scrape these and use them for your natural language generator.
Someone needs to maintain the wealth, keep avoiding taxes, keep an eye on regulations, foreign markets, looking for new investments.
Interesting. When two crimes both take similar effort to commit, and similar effort to investigate, I'm not sure if the higher dollar amount should be defacto prioritized.

Some cities in the UK already have that with "residents parking" - you prove to the local authority that you live in the area and you get to park in dedicated parking spaces that aren't available to non-residents.

I've seen stats about wealth distribution in Germany and I'm in the top 7%. I could life of my saved money for 3 maybe 5 years if I'm very frugal.

I wouldn't consider this rich, wealthy yes, but not rich.

Also my money is probably more in the range of the 20% of the population that is "under me" in the stats than the 2% "over me".
Yup, 80-100K is double the median, and 4X poor. It sure doesn't feel like very much when you're struggling to pay bills, imagine trying to live on half or a quarter of that...
Money management is a huge industry.
It isn't so much UX now, it is that you are bonding a lot of locked-in parts of your ecosystem to a proprietary platform.

The issues, wiki, CI, and user-ecosystem of github aren't portable. If Github shut down, changed their policies, or just simply did something you don't like, you have no recourse if you bond your software to their platform.

If you use gitlab, phabricator, gogs, or any other open source solution, either you are hosting it yourself - everyone wins - or you are using a centralized host equivalent to github, except now if they pull the rug out from under you you still have all the open source releases up to that point that you can pivot to - and you wouldn't necessarily need to self host, because someone will pick up the reins.
It would be great to see tube tickets priced by weight as you step through the barriers. Lots of fat people and tourists (with bags) taking up room makes traveling on the tube much more uncomfortable than it needs to be.
I get the concern about surveillence. But I can see some amazing benefits of treating cars and the road as a single connected system. You could hold vehicles at the journey start point until space on the road opens up. Or adjust speed limits in real time depending on conditions. And maybe even remove traffic calming by modifying user speeds. The free-for-all we have now is hopelessly disfunctional and drivers suffer from that.
I'm guessing his point is your lifestyle changes very little between the bottom and the top of the middle class. You have four walls and a roof over your head. Have home internet. Eat out a few times a week. Have a smart phone, etc.

You still have to go to work every day like everyone else to sustain this lifestyle. You just have nicer "things" and "fancier" experiences?
There are so many things that are stupid about this, here is some examples:

1. IMHO this is directly sexist towards men. There are numerous socially awkward things you may do at a public transport. Why only crack down on one of them?

2. Even if manspreading would be an issue, which it is my belief that it is absolutely not, it would affect men more than women since men are generally speaking physically larger than women. Have anyone heard a man complain? EDIT: What I meant by this is that if this really was a problem, men would suffer more extensively from it.

3. This will most likely create the opposite effect and make more people spread their legs just because it is sexist in the first place.

EDIT 2:

Those who simply state that "this is an issue". Have you ever actually asked the person in question if they could take up less room? This "issue" needs a sign just as much as "women who places their handbags on other seats" or "dont stare at people intensively" or "dont dig out your nose in front of everyone" or "dont talk very loudly in the cellphone" or "dont play a music instrument". Also, since this is a it and startup related forum, where the fuck is the actual evidence that this is an issue?

If you would make a sign of every single bad behavior on a public transport, there would be no room for anything else. Just talk to people and if you are too afraid to, that itself is a way larger issue for you than people taking up too much space.

I know at least that if this would come in my hometown, I would manspread in every fucking ride.
The argument for giving more priority to higher amounts is that since criminals are stealing the money, they can commit more crime with more money(in simple terms - you can buy more drugs/guns with 250k than with 2k)
>various pomo terms and theories are written about as if there were anything behind them.

What do you mean? Because I don't think there's anything wrong with post-modern theory; it's a topic that's actively discussed in philosophy. I think it's unwise to dismiss something just because it's post-modern, it it given credence to post-modernism.

Perhaps there is something behind Derrida.
This article seems to be stretching to find reasons for its existence. I am willing to accept that I may be blinded by my own income/position. But it makes wild accusations and the backup feels very thin.

I also disagree that a "meritocracy" does not exist, at least in the IT world. In my own life (anecdote, sure, but how many stories are similar?) I was raised by a single father who made 20-30k a year. I'm now in the top 20% that the article refers to, and seems to imply as very hard to do from the way I was raised. This happened not due to luck or privilege, in my opinion. This happened because I spend 12-16 hours a day in front of a computer screen, and because I do what I tell people I will do.

My son will certainly have access to more than I had when I was a child. Maybe I'm just an evil rich guy? The article seems to be prefer that I am.
Your comment is a fine example of the article's point.

You (and I) may need to work. But that doesn't mean there's not a large gap between us and the "poor".

Take myself for an example - I own half my house and the bank owns the other half. So, yes, I have to work for a "survive" and pay for my mortgage and food.

But I only have to earn enough pay half the cost of housing, because the other half is provided by my capital.

A poor(er) person has to earn enough pay 100% of their cost of housing. A rich(er) person would own their house in full, so has no need to earn to pay that cost of living.

So there's clearly a scale between having to work to pay for anything, and not having to work at all because your capital pays enough dividends to cover all your bills.

The article contends that the "rich" cut off point is much lower down than we think, and that this advantage is passed from generation to generation.

The author says that in the UK this generational advantage is more recognised than in the US, because it is more formalised - which takes away some of the ability for people to be willfully ignorant of the advantage they've been given from birth compared to others.
