Well yeah, if society collapses you'd better be a prepper. Most reasonable people however think that you're very secure financially once you have saved enough for ~30 years of average spending. Barring major market disaster you could then continue living from your capital gains indefinitely.

Yes, it was the middle and upper classes that came in that first wave. But almost all of them did come with nothing, only small portions of the ultra rich were able to sneak out any signicant amount of wealth. The Castro regime did not allow you to take your worldly possessions with you. Bank accounts were frozen, homes were inventoried, and bags were searched. But they all felt lucky enough to escape with their lives and freedoms. And they did bring the values and virtues that served them well in their previous lives.

I also reject your premise that all of these people were profiting directly from the Batista dictatorship. There was corruption in Cuba, but there was also capitalism.
>Use some debt to acquire them, and good returns can be made, even in small(er) deals.

Gambling on debt sounds like a sure-fire way to end up with even more debt. And that's what most investment boils down to: A gamble

Profit isn't generated out of thin air, somebody has to be the sucker and pay for it, those are usually the losers of aforementioned gambles.

With the way house prices are going, Amsterdam is rapidly turning into a city for rich people. There's a lot of rent-controlled housing, but waiting lists are more than 8 years on average. It's mostly the outskirts that are affordable, but not the center or the good neighbourhoods surrounding the center.
And sympathy clearly makes up for the poorest 20% of the country, right?
Yep. I know how the market works. something something ~capitalism~
> within a year or two you would have far more security than the $30k household will ever have.

Within a year or two? I think you mean "after your first paycheck". The ability to have a grand or two 'cushion' money in the bank is an incredible difference between the haves and have-nots. And I don't mean "money in my day-to-day account", I mean emergency money of any kind.

It's bizarre that a 300k/yr household can even contemplate being similar to a 30k/yr one.
I've always defined rich by whether or not you need to work to maintain your desired lifestyle. If your desired lifestyle has you spending $30k / yr, rich means you have about $750k saved up. If your lifestyle would put you at $100k / yr in spending, you'll need $2.5m saved up.

Rich is as much about being able to manage your finances well as it is about how much money you make. If you are living from paycheck to paycheck, it doesn't matter whether your monthly check is $1500 or $10,000. If you're bad with money, you aren't rich.
Everything in the valley back in the day was 15 min away.

Now that same 15 min takes 1.5 hrs. Because everyone's now here.

Who pays for that?

You can move Google out of Mountain View to Bumfuck, Idaho. Then you lose the centralization and plugging into the network.

Who pays for that?

But to be honest, most prefer it this way. This crazy doo-dad lifestyle of fighting that 3 hour traffic. Because the thing is, if you work hard to win (or more likely you're just fortunate enough to win), then you get to enjoy central networking, get to enjoy the year over year growth of your property, get to enjoy the convenience of job hopping, get to enjoy that the smartest and the brightest all want in on this action.

So I don't know. I paid for my own uniforms in the marine corps. Someone should be sending me checks!
And that's how solidarity dies. Are we going to start playing the game of "you're not oppressed enough"?

Why not start with the $30k a year household:

Hot water? What a luxury! Half the world can't afford drinking water.

Car engine? They can use a bicycle like they do in India.

Utility bills? Just bring in some chickens into your home to warm it up.

With enough will and prudent planning you can make a dollar a day stretch much further than you could imagine. Just like you are suggesting I spend my life figuring out ways to live better in a system broken by design.

In a sane country I wouldn't have to worry about insurance and the people making a tenth less than me wouldn't worry about cars, boilers or bills, because there would be public options for all of those things.
Somewhat off topic but I would consider seat belt laws to be part of the police state. Shouldn't it be my personal choice to wear it or not?
It is. Most of the people telling you how great it is have probably not had the misfortune to experience it first hand.
Or you use the taxes to transfer wealth from the richest to the poorest, for example by paying everyone a basic income.

The point would be that Xonsh is a Python command line. This is a Python library for running commands. So they definitely have two separate use cases.

One of my favorite apps is Raskell, basically Haskell 98 ported to iOS. It uses Dropbox for storage so it is possible to move small Haskell applications in and out of iOS. Pythonista is also very cool.

I like the safety of the iOS walled garden but I also see real value in complex IDEs like IntelliJ running on iPad Pros.
You make a very good point. Sultan, at the end of the day, is a syntactic sugar for Subprocess. It has a couple of doo-dads for remote SSH execution, and things like that.

I originally wanted to have Sultan to do exactly what you're saying, but when I started diving into it, it seemed like a task that was very tough to solve. For example, grep's syntax remains similar between OS, but it has some API changes between versions. Trying to figure out what version has what syntax seems a bit daunting, and perhaps impossible to do with all commands.

The usecase that Sultan really caters to is the developer who writes their code on one OS, and keeps that code in the same OS across different environments. Not everyone wants their code to run across different OS and Distributions. I felt like it was a special case to do this, and decided to keep Sultan as generic as possible and let developers build the logic for different OS and Distributions on top of it.

The problem Sultan does solve is code maintainability, reusability within their own project (which assumes the project runs on 1 OS), and testability (unit and integration tests can be written, while you can't do that in Bash easily).
However, if we're talking about state of mind, then rich can be how secure one feels in their lifestyle. If all your family and friends are hedge fund managers/CEOs/famous athletes and everyone is worth 50M+, then having a mere 10M won't feel rich. You won't be able to engage in many of the activities they can. You might also not feel rich if your wealth isn't secure, there is wealthy and then truly high net worth, where you can make so much off the interest that you can afford multiple houses and a private jet.

If "state of mind" is your standard then almost anyone can tell a story about how they aren't really rich. And this isn't just me screwing around. There is a bunch of research about how the vast majority of people, no matter their financial situation, don't quite feel rich because they can always see "the next level up."

Perhaps we should be using a better standard than "state of mind."
Interesting, I've never seen it spelled 'okey' until now.
Well the company gets to enjoy having employees, because they tolerate them working from home. They get to make all the sweet sweet profit. They see their revenues increase, etc. Your whole perspective can be framed the exact other way as well. At the end it's a negotiation. Who wins that is a matter of perspective. It's a privilege to have talented employees just as it's a privilege to work for a good company.
Flynn's key selling point is easy setup and load-balancing.

You should try it out yourself, and see if it eases some of your pain points.

It also includes rollback of code (right from the UI, and every ENV variable change / worker change is a new release) and continuous deployment options (ensuring your code isn't broken when deploying a new version and deploying while ensuring your service never goes offline)
How does that have anything to do with the current discussion?
That argument is extremely broad, though. It's easy to live off your investments if you live in a hovel, eat ramen every day and never go out. Is that classified as rich?

Sure, it's a continuum, but "not having to live hand-to-mouth" is a hell of a lot closer to rich than to poor.

Buckling springs are always noisy (you can reduce but not eliminate the noise by putting vibration damping materials inside the springs). "Clicky" switches like Cherry MX Blues are always noisy. Other key switches are much quieter, and most of the noise comes from operator error. You're not supposed to press them all the way down like a membrane switch. The operating point of mechanical key switches is near the middle of the travel. If you press too hard they'll bottom out and make a lot more noise, as well as tiring your fingers more. If you're prone to doing this by accident you can fit soft o-rings around the keycap stem to cushion the end of the stroke.
> But EVs (and hybrids, to a lesser extent) break this model. They are expensive, but environmentally friendly.

Not quite. EVs reduce direct pollution, but there are still a lot of negative externalities. There are obvious ones relating to the manufacture and also to then still requiring energy.

But car culture itself has all sorts of issues, no matter the drive train: it encourages bad urbanism and sprawl (with large environmental impact), encourages inefficient land use via extensive parking, it taxes the infrastructure, it encourages bad health, and also some direct accidents.
> The world is full of countries with more equally distributed healthcare systems than the US with better public/private balance. The one that gets brought up most often here is the UK NHS, but there are plenty of others.

How many countries with socialist health care systems then produce new drugs for patients? I can tell you, it's about none. Most of the new drugs worldwide come from the US market. There's no way going around that fact.
Coworking Spaces for Women: Gender Equity in a Multibillion-Dollar Industry
I find it interesting that when the NN fails to complete the whole puzzle, it seems to fail spectacularly (github.com/Kyubyong/sudoku#results) -- that is, there aren't a lot of good-partial attempts (90% or above). Does anyone know why this might be the case? Does the first wrong placement of a number in a gap essentially ruin the rest of the guesses?
I don't know about SafetyNet specifically, but it could be that it has to authenticate itself to the apps that call its APIs.

E.g., I guess it could be code-signed and that the apps that use it have to check the signature. That uses a private key that "FakeSafetyNet" couldn't duplicate (well, assuming the SafetyNet people could keep it a secrect). It also incorporates a hash of the binary being signed so that FakeSafetyNet couldn't get away with just swiping the signature from SafetyNet to present as its own (the binary hash of FakeSafetyNet wouldn't match the signature).

I'm just speculating here, though.
Many workplaces require a certain attire. You probably already own dress clothes, but someone who doesn't might have to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars to obtain clothes for their job. But I'm not just talking about just white collar positions either; construction workers, photographers, waiters, retail workers, telemarketers, etc. all have dress codes, some for safety and some to weed out "undesirables". If I can expense my ergonomic keyboard, a dock worker better be able to expense their steel-toed boots.
Here's a little tip, when trying to find a source for some BS about the NHS, try not linking to the daily fail, who are well known for printing mistruths and on occasion, outright made up stories about things like the NHS.
This is interesting, could it potentially reduce surge pricing?

One thing I thought, it would be really convinient if Uber could amortize their surge pricing over the month/year. In order not to hit customers with unexpected rates and essentially offer a flat predictable fee over the whole period. Problem with that is you can't really plan the future demand to calculate how much you need to save/dip. Could an auction house help to hedge the bets?

Maybe an example of what you consider a valid cron expression would help. Pasted things straight out of crontab, with and without the command part, and it says "invalid cron expression" for all of them.

Edit: Apparently, you're being strict about only a single space between fields, and not including the command part.
No, not really. The top 1% pay nearly half the income taxes.
Representing each row as an object works, but it ends up having us write custom objects for different result types. When you run Sultan().ls('-l'), you will get back a list of Strings, which you can freely use in Python for your specific needs (like use a Regex to fetch date/times or file size). I felt like this offers developers the best flexibility, rather than trying to customize each output (which will definitely make the codebase very confusing)
> life tends towards patterns of similarity

I would argue that this is only true to the extent that there's a reason for the similarity. Similarities arise when they serve an adaptive purpose. And, to be fair, those clonal fish are a lot more similar than they are different. They're all still very similar looking fish!

My whole point was that the authors of the paper seemed to expect the similarity to continue beyond what there's any adaptive reason for, and that's just crazy!

This happened not due to luck or privilege, in my
opinion. [...] Maybe I'm just an evil rich guy?

I don't think that's what the article is trying to say. I'm sure everyone has a different experience of this kind of stuff.

I'm a computer programmer, my father was a design engineer, his father was an architect.

That meant my parents could afford a house in the catchment area for a good state school, where most people's parents were university-educated, and most people were going to university. Next to no disruptive behaviour - which of course makes it much easier to retain good teachers.

My mother could take time off work after I was born, and we could always afford healthy, balanced family meals every day. My parents worked predictable, sociable hours so there was always someone to read me a bedtime story.

And it meant I was never short of educational things at home. I was one of the only people in my school to have access to a home computer; the first modem my parents brought cost $600.

Of course I could have as many books as I could read - assuming they didn't have them at the public library, which my parents had been taking to since before I could read.

I also had all the help I needed with my homework. Struggling to derive the quadratic formula? No problem, parent can do it from memory. Not doing so well in Subject X? No trouble, let's see if 90 minutes a week of private tutoring improves the situation.

I need an internship or work experience or a summer job in college? No problem, Dad can take me in where he works. Of course he made sure I knew how to behave and dress. None of my colleagues ever played pranks on the new guy or anything - after all, my dad was the manager of the design office.

There were also a bunch of less tangible things involving having seen things before and knowing not to be intimidated or feel like I didn't belong. Getting into university / starting a business might seem intimidating if you've never known someone who's done it before. I know a bunch of people who have - so when I did the same thing, it was an easy decision.

It sounds like you made it without any of those advantages - good for you!

But it'd be be pretty weird if I claimed those things I listed didn't benefit me - I plan to reproduce all of them for my children (if and when I have them), as I think they had a pretty large positive impact.
> I imagine we're being hit by an r/socialism brigade.

It's OK for people to disagree. Not everything is part of a conspiracy.
> it's too big (and dark in many places) for me.

I don't know about "too big" - that's pretty subjective - but it's plenty bright right now. Summer sun means it's hot and sunny, and will probably be that way most places you live - unless you happen to live in Midtown or Fidi, you'll be walking in the sun every day.

And remember, just because you're not in direct sunlight doesn't mean it's dark - most things around you will reflect light, especially the windows on buildings.

Apartments, however, are a much bigger toss-up. I've lived in places where most of our windows faced the sun (not particularly fun in the summer), and I've lived in basement/garden apartments where even when the sun did peek over the neighboring rooftop to strike our windowsill, the trees above us filtered most of it out.
Unfortunately a garbage car in every sense. Tiny range around half that of a Model 3 - at 172km I can't drive to the airport and back without charing - no supercharging equivalent, ugly, no autopilot or equivalent, tiny, and cheaper than a Tesla Model 3 but not by much.

Interesting related court case from a couple years ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrity_Staffing_Solutions,_...: "a unanimous decision by the United States Supreme Court, ruling that time spent by workers waiting to undergo anti-employee theft security screenings is not "integral and indispensable" to their work, and thus not compensable under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The Court delivered their ruling on December 9, 2014."

I found this because I had a vague memory about a case about time spent "closing down stores" but maybe it was this or something else.
