So, you are saying that at each phase, the company should hire employees that are tweens, teens, and then young adults in correlation to the phase the company is in at a given moment? It's like this imaginary business is all done on MILF Island with the book crew from Lord of the Flies. So, by that logic, if I had a rock band at age 15 and Katheryn Bigelow said she wanted to play bass in it, I'd say no? Because she isn't in my collective-teen-fever-dream? And also, because although she is an incredible film maker with tons and tons of expertise in a technical discipline and tons of insight in business and tons of artistic gravitas you could learn from and riff of and maybe grow from, and the maturity to know that you might have some things she could learn from too, in fact- she isn't a super duper experienced professional bass player. YET. YET. YET. Did I mention that she has become a decent bass player in just a very short period of time and can prove it? Doesn't matter right? But what are you? Sheesh, maybe she could be all of these things and more?! Maybe she will be your company's greatest asset. Perhaps you could do with some diversity and modularity in this imaginary acme-company-kit so you could get injected with a "view of paradise" as Willy Wonka would say. Want to change the world? Well, as he would say, there's nothing to it. But, first you'd have to imagine that things don't snap together in a grid. Perhaps if you hire some over 40 people they might share a bit about the benefits of embracing chaos and improvisation into your business -- well, I guess the kids call it "agile" these days. But there is not agile like the agile of chaos and diversity. Shake it up a bit. You might find that it helps you move a bit faster that your competitors who are following these scripts. Well, this is what many of us over 40 people think when we interview for a job in tech after having achieved some great things in our carers and are pretty great at the things the job asks for too, but then are passed over for a 20 something with no experience who is less skilled as well. Culture fit. GOT IT. Anyone Else?

What possible incentive would an airline have to do that, then?

> If someone does book the middle seat, we just trade aisle/window for the middle, so we're together, and he other person feels like he got an upgrade.

This infuriates me. My wife and I traveled cross country last month and due to a maintenance issue the previous night, our 6am flight was cancelled and we were pushed to 10am. What resulted was us trying to select seats when every row on the plane was either full or window-aisle. Had people flying together actually selected seats next to each other, it stands to reason some of those would have opened up and we may have been able to sit together.

Not a big deal for a 30-minute connecting flight, but not the best 5 hours to start a trip with.

But why is MIT making money on those addresses more valuable than giving its students an opportunity to experiment and innovate? Why would selling those "unused" spaces to Amazon further the cause of IPv6?

Also MIT hasn't even rolled out IPv6 yet...
I'm not intelligent enough to say either way. I do think that excluding them was a good idea. If the only businesses that can survive a law are massive multi-national corporations, we've got a problem...
"the average low-wage worker in the city lost $125 a month because of the hike in the minimum."

This is the bad news.
I wouldn't consider any retail job (e.g. cashier), a middle class job. Nobody wants to think of themselves as lower class but clearly there is a delineation somewhere? Are you still considered middle class if you are unemployed and the industry you worked in left town?

Similar things will happen to small towns along trucking routes if tractor-trailer driving becomes automated. You will have less need for restaurants, small hotels, truck-stops, etc. if an automated truck is passing through at 3am.

I don't see solutions to this other than people leaving these towns or learning new skills.

Those are the fast moving and the new parts of the internet. I bet that in a few years IPv6 deployment will slow down as the remaining systems become older, less maintained or even opinionated (like me). For many years to come some kind of IPv4 connectivity will remain a requirement to access all of the internet/web.
On a local level there have been a good few, particularly local time-based currencies. I can't point to one that ever had national level adoption, however.

At my local grocer in Manhattan, some prices suddenly went up 25% or more on a number of items and I was told by a senior manager of the food store chain (I was calling to complain about something else and inquired) who said it was because of the first minimum wage increase for not only the stores but the distributors which are also located in NY State.

NY State passed a minimum wage from $11 to $13 to $15 by 2018 or so. The current rate is $11.

A lot of people receive food stamps and/or are on a fixed income (think retirees) and this puts a substantial increase in their cost of living. This is only the first hike. One can only imagine how much higher food prices will be when it finally goes up to $15.

Meanwhile neither NY State nor NY City has dealt with the real problem which is the high cost of living which is very hard on low-wage people in particular because of zoning density restrictions and overuse of historic landmark status. These zoning density restrictions are a huge windfall for wealthy landlords as they make renters pay far, far higher rates for apartments than they would in an efficient market. It is a huge regressive "tax" that makes landlords like Donald Trump far wealthier than they otherwise would be in a efficient, functioning real estate market.
> What's really going to matter is how it's executed. If someone bids $100 to keep a seat empty and the flight is empty, do they still get charged the $100? Or is it only when there's a limited number of empty seats and more people that will pay to have an empty seat next to them.

For sure they will, and probably that's what they are after. Think of it like this, when you pay for an economy seat and get 2 adjacent seats for free because the plane is half empty you're basically winning the lottery since many travellers are randomly assigned. The airline will monetise on this from now on by opening up the bids.

It's very interesting also to see to what degree prices will go up since this would create some scarcity.
The airline is probably happier to accommodate as few passengers as possible due to the extra passenger overhead (check-in, bags, service) though the math is quite hard considering upsales and all.

All in all, I have always been fascinated about the complex problems the airline industry is solving and this only adds more to it. Would really like to see the software implementing all this.
NAT is not an additional layer of security.

I run our servers on public IP addresses, behind a firewall. Troubleshooting and debugging is made much easier, and there's never any conflict with VPNs etc.

Doing.

I pick a project that interests me at some point; currently "I'd like to have an internet music player that sits on my cupboard and doesn't require my tablet".

Then:

* decide on platform (CC3200, because it has wifi, enough processing power,
and I happened to have one)
* build something that decodes an MP3 stream (investigate, pick Helix as the decoder,
make it run on the CC)
* think about hardware (DAC, amplifier)
* think about enclosure (wood, how to do front panel)

I knew next to nothing about many of these things when I started, and I'm making lots of mistakes along the way, and I won't become an expert in any of these things, but the overall goal/"target" provides a guide to decide what to learn next. A search engine then helps me find the resources I need.

For tracking my progress, I've started to use Emacs org mode.
> In particular, to avoid confusing establishments that were subject to the minimum with those that were not, the authors did not include large employers with locations both inside and outside of Seattle in their calculations.

Wait, so are places like corporate McDonalds, Starbucks, Subway, etc excluded from the study? ...What about grocery stores? ...Clothing stores, mall shops, etc?

It seems like failing to include those would be a major bias in the effects of the study.

Edit:

"Indeed, while employment overall did not change, that was because employers replaced low-paying jobs with high-paying jobs. The number of workers making over $19 an hour increased abruptly, while the number making less than that amount declined, Vigdor and his colleagues found.

Vigdor said that restaurateurs in Seattle -- along with other employers -- responded to the minimum wage by hiring more skilled and experienced workers, who might be able to produce more revenue for their firms in the same amount of time."

Oh, so their "loss" to low-paying jobs can be explained by a rise in jobs paying above their cutoff for "low-paying"?

I have a lot of questions about this study; particularly since it doesn't agree with the other study mentioned in the article (with this study using "new" methods and the other using more "traditional" methods).
"Using a variety of methods to analyze employment in all sectors paying below a specified real hourly rate, we conclude that the second wage increase to $13 reduced hours worked in low-wage jobs by around 9 percent, while hourly wages in such jobs increased by around 3 percent. Consequently, total payroll fell for such jobs, implying that the minimum wage ordinance lowered low-wage employees’ earnings by an average of $125 per month in 2016. Evidence attributes more modest effects to the first wage increase. We estimate an effect of zero when analyzing employment in the restaurant industry at all wage levels, comparable to many prior studies."

> MIT is just moving to IPv6.

The "just" is incorrect. There are four bullets on the slide: DHCP, IPV6, private IPV4/NAT, and firewall. From the diagram it looks to me like even if you move to IPV6 (which, as others have noted, MIT has not yet rolled out, so at this point you can't), you will still be behind the firewall, so setting up a service visible to the Internet will still be more difficult than it used to be.
They didn't really go into the wind surfing enough to point out why Texas is actually damn good for water sailing sports.

One of the non obvious reasons is the inner gulf coast has very little chop. Chop (which is basically little waves of water turbulence at the surface as well as constant little swells) massively decreases boat/board speed even for planing boats/boards.

Of course large swells are generally worse (with some exceptions... like wanting to do tricks and if your going downwind).

The article doesn't really tell us whether encryption is a factor. The suspects may not be using encryption, or the encryption used might be secretly circumvented by Italian authorities, right?

I find this to be credible - at some level, it'll certainly hurt. The problem as I see it is that some people say "aha, see, that doesn't work", but then stop there. There is a real problem in that some people (not all who make minimum wage, and not only those who make minimum wage) have real problems making ends meet. What's the best way to help them?

Try to get learning working in multiple aspects of your brain at once. One of the best "learn about learning" lessons I ever had was studying jazz theory.

I've applied this sort of approach to all sorts of skills since then.

That is because of government regulations and infrastructure, not because banks are not technologically advanced. I can easily use something like, say, Chase's QuickPay to pay any recipient. The government just won't accept that form of payment. That has absolutely nothing to do with financial technology. The technology exists and is in use, the government just doesn't use it. I also can't use Apple Pay/Google Pay with the government. Does that mean that Apple/Google aren't technologically advanced? No. It means the government isn't.
All your saying is that the tcp connection doesn't break if you don't send anything whilst either host is not unreachable.

You can break the connection in between and resume as long as your ip hasn't changed.

So it's not really resuming ssh or anything, just a function of tcp sockets. Generally disabled on public since something could open up a bunch of listening sockets and then leave them and never close.

With your servers that you've disabled the keep alive and intervals, if you drop a connection and never reconnect, it's going to keep it open. A malicious could keep opening connections and exhausting your server.

The exercise of a right cannot be taxed.

You can redeem them for the privilege of operating a legally distinct incorporated business entity in the US.

At a strictly technical level, I believe it may still be possible to live your life entirely lawfully, without being taxed, but the amount of legal analysis necessary to work out exactly how that may be accomplished is beyond me. It's far easier to just earn enough dollars, and then pay up.

(Note that relying on Supreme Court opinions will not get you to anywhere you might want to be if the IRS decides you need to pay them.)
It is fair actually, you are bidding for the empty spaces. If flight is not full, empty places are assigned to people with the order of their bidding.

From game theory perspective best option is bidding something like 1$ etc. (considering probably not many people will bid)

The article itself seems to be a pretty even-handed summary of some the underlying research (which was not carried out by Jeff Bezos).
That's a separate issue, also worthy of study.

But it does seem ridiculous to assume the validity of a study of low-wage workers in Seattle while omitting data from companies like Starbucks that presumably employ many people affected by the change.
I can't seem to find the underlying paper, but statistics can be deceiving -- if the pool of "low-wage" workers was reduced because some of them, due to the boost provided by the minimum wage increase, became "medium-wage" workers, then this statement might not have a negative meaning.

It does not appear that the survey involved has the degree of resolution to make the statement that "the individuals comprising the pool of low-wage workers earned $125/month less on average after the change", then it is problematic, but it is far from clear that this is what the study says.

The GP's quote seems to capture the only hard data given -- that employers employed as many people at higher wages as they unemployed at the lower wage, meaning a net increase in wages paid by employers given that unemployment did not change.
Ok, your moralizing tone is condescending, it is rude to pretend to "ask questions" when you're really pushing a thesis, and the thesis you are presenting has no explanatory power. Thus addressing those "questions" is largely uninteresting.
