This! As I see it a major problem not only with Debian but Linux over all is the amount of outdated documentation. At least some people will when they don't find what they're looking for on the Debian wiki google for it and might end up with at best solutions that are old and outdated, or at worst solutions that are all wrong these days and might leave their system wide open.
And it's still true, at least in some parts of the country. There are places in the Midwest where Walmart is the only place a lot of people shop. There are towns in the southeast going broke in part because they're paying police to act as Walmart internal security.

But I suppose two battling monsters beat one rampaging monster, at least.
Well, as an anarcho-capitalist / market anarchist, I hold that our version is the "pure" form of Libertarianism. This is why I phrased that as "In a purely Libertarian world". I look at other camps, like minarchists, as compromising the fundamental essence of Libertarianism in varying ways.

But, to be fair, I am biased. So there's that.
Yea this seems like the key question. I don't know if Level 5 in two years is feasible, but if it's Level 5 or bust, then LIDAR won't fly (AIUI; would certainly welcome corrections).

On one hand, not pulling in potential safety improvements because they only work in good weather seems wrong, but on the other hand...that might be what needs to happen from a cost/marketing/legal perspective.
Etsy should go back at what they did initially and support the craftsmen instead of the china imports, maybe that would help bring them back on track.
The trouble with economic globalization is that we assumed that markets work and work well all over the world. That there would be an inevitable stable middle class built from the sheer power of market forces.

It turns out that those in power around the world have every incentive to keep the gains to themselves and keep their population desperate -- desperate people have to weigh their economic decisions against their physical well-being and continued existence and play the game not to gain power but not to lose everything. And our answer in the US seemed to be that the market is always right; if parity can't be achieved by lifting the poor around the world up to a near-US level of middle class, then it must be reached by pushing the middle class in the US down to desperation level and reducing our overhead to compete on a world stage where other leaders in power can more easily ignore the negative externalities that they push on their population.

It was, in a word, stupid.

It is too easy for the wealthy of the greater world to ignore the problems they create at home by being 'citizens of the world'.

I don't agree with Trump on much but I do agree that relying upon the market to fix all ills hasn't worked. We need to flex the economic muscle we have and tie trade to political reforms or find a way to bypass the powers that be and pull up the people directly. Otherwise, we are stuck in a race to the bottom.
I would argue quite the opposite. It's not a Black Swan at all. It's an entirely predictable outcome that is caused by the incentives of large groups of people.

E.g. when people say "software is eating the world", that really means software engineers, like most people reading this site, are taking away the means of existence of hundreds millions of people. In the US, but much more so outside of the US.

Can you really call it a black swan when

1) you see it coming

2) it is perfectly clear what can be done (e.g. killing globalization and stopping people movement around the globe, as is being advocated, yes it's racist, yes it's going to kill GDP and in that sense "make us all worse off", but it's hard to deny that it will help. Not in the way we want it, it'll kill our access to ipads, and force inferior alternatives in many ways. But it will help)

3) you will not cooperate with preventing the black swan, even yourself, because of incentives (you would lose your job)

4) ...

This "populist uprising" is a feedback loop that's just barely getting started. It is currently absolutely not worth the word "uprising". A few republicans got elected. Sorry to point this out but that won't be the end of it. It hasn't even begun.

We'll need to be very lucky to avoid another war.
If I can reach back to your earlier comment, it seems that your premise is that when margins are razor-thin, 'Work conditions, overall demands of productivity et al will be brutal.'

My answer to that is then there is something fundamentally wrong with your business model. Basically, what is the point in running a business under which such conditions are the norm?

Any demanding mission ever might be out of reach to you per your value system.

This is fallacious. Of course there are times when struggle is necessary. A rewarding life (however you define reward) certainly requires an investment of effort, and at time that effort will be very difficult. Sometimes we are faced with very trying circumstances such as natural disaster or war or serious economic insecurity, and we have to work very ahrd to survive.

But a key word here is sometimes. If you deliberately construct such an environment where survival and advancement are only possible through 'brutal' work conditions and demands of productivity, then you are actively making the world a worse place, because you are establishing such brutal conditions as a norm and implicitly telling people that their life choices boil down to slavery or death. Why would any sane person want to create the conditions of slavery? Slavery is a condition of life that people rationally wish to escape.

There seems to be this attitude that if people are not constantly driven by necessity then they'll get too comfortable and lazy and never do anything. This is not borne out by the evidence. Some people would, not least because they're constantly bombarded with messages to consume, consume, consume whenever they can as a relief from their economic anxiety. But few people are fundamentally motivated by gluttony. Given the opportunity most people opt to develop their capabilities and contribute or create rather than merely consume.

Choosing to promulgate brutal working conditions is essentially promoting brutality as your preferred model of social organization. That's basically a displacement of sadistic and/or masochistic impulses into the economic sphere. You may very well feel that nothing of value happens except under harsh compulsion, but that seems to both ignore all the evidence to the contrary (an irrational bias) and abdicate responsibility for the consequences (since brutality is well-understood to result in wholly avoidable injuries).

It seems to me that your value system rests on some rather extreme assumptions that are not justified by the available evidence, and insofar as it imposes compulsion on others rather than being used to motivate yourself, it's intolerable. Put another way, if you only feel alive and productive under conditions of harsh necessity, that's your business. But as soon as you insist that this is the way of the world and that others must get with it or be cast aside, you're infringing upon the freedom of others. And at a social level, through regulatory process, experience of litigation and so on, we've agreed that the creation of such conditions is not an acceptable means to pursue arbitrary ends.
I sold to Walmart for 4 years. In the beginning we believed we were lucky to become vendors. Then we realized how much stress they created. Every single year they would short pay our invoices. We would have to submit a claim with Walmart accounting. This process was completely and utterly time consuming. But the worst of it, they wouldn't pay the invoices owed until a year later. It's hard to float a $100,000 short pay as a small business.

They did much more and I was surprised that they existed this way in business
Few months back I was looking for a map/poster of Mars and was quite surprised that there weren't that many good options. Almost all of the available full coverage images/maps were based on the ancient Viking data. Investigating bit deeper, apparently the modern high-resolution instruments have imaged only small portion of the surface, so there isn't a simple way to create complete map from those. Additionally, stiching the captured images apparently is highly non-trivial because the images have been taken over such long periods and from different angles etc. Different instruments have also different spectral responses, rarely being exactly plain normal rgb.

If some image processing wizard would want to make a stab at merging all the different image sources, I think the results could be quite spectacular. The data is mostly there and publicly available, it just needs massive amounts of processing.
To make this specific, Fibonacci would be a great example

I'm not aware of a parser combinator library that does this. The way you build parser combinators in Haskell doesn't exactly preclude it from being done but it wouldn't be totally trivial either.

Googling for it didn't turn up much that wasn't a veiled reference to this paper:

And people from NASA and the CNES said space x was moot.

Can we just let the man try without being annoying the whole way ?

1. Labor has no pricing power.

2. All the spigots for cheap labor & goods have been on full blast with no real sign of slowing - at all.

3. We can't have a mature conversation in this country about adjusting the pace of change in society. It's basically whatever capital wants, capital gets.

4. Since productivity gains were decoupled from labor's wage increases in the late 1970's, the notion of "getting ahead" by working & providing labor is ultimately an exercise in irony.

5. Ameliorating these concerns by replacing them with race antagonism is deeply stupid.

6. Fundamentalism of all religious stripes is a conservative reaction against encroaching modernity, globalization & cosmopolitanism - which upsets local power hierarchies & is a threat to the status quo.

7. We need labor power with continued, but this time measured international engagement. Isolationism won't work and is an over-reaction.

Nobody says they don't take these things seriously, but an glance at the data will show you that many don't actually take them seriously.
Well, a legal code can both codify discrimination against children in some specific contexts, and broadly ban it in others. (It's true, the term "age discrimination" has been coopted to refer to discrimination against older people.)

For example this NYC law bans a category of discrimination against children: http://www.nytimes.com/1993/12/04/nyregion/new-york-to-bar-a.... I wonder if it's broad enough to challenge the Uber policy?
> The point of parole should be to prevent future criminal acts.

I think you mean the point of enforcing the rules of and revoking parole is to prevent future crime? Sure. But parole, which is specifically something handed out for good behavior in prison and is in lieu of prison, is still better than prison. They are still serving a sentence, and it's not as bad as it would be in prison. There's lots of problems with how we treat felons and restrict their futures, but I do not consider strict parole rules part of that, given it's during the time allotted for their original sentence. Just because they are out of prison, doesn't mean their punishment is complete (in this case).

Put simply, in all cases I can think of, parole is better than prison, and that's what it should be compared to, because that's the other option (no parole). Comparing it to being completely free for the purpose of deciding whether it's fair is nonsensical to me.

The biggest problem with Globalisation is that it doesn't contribute to global economic development. It merely outsources manual labour and less profitable/desirable work from rich countries to less-developed countries because of the price difference in labour.

Growing up I always imagined a world where the big cities of Africa could be just as developed as those in Europe, Asia or America. Instead we've been given a new form of colonialism where developed countries take the best minds from the developing world, and outsource all the work we don't want to poor countries.

This of course hurts our working class, as well as contributing nothing to the actual development of poor countries. So it's really no surprise that our working class is rebelling, as well as creating unrest in the developing world.
"...but rather a trust problem. In this setting you have suppliers and consumers with many to many relationship."

The key word here is relationship. As in relationship management.

What, where are CRM equivalents for recruiting, interviewing, onboarding, etc? Does everyone roll their own? Or just done manually, ad hoc?

Is this a service that indeed.com or competitors could provide to their customers (both sides)?

---

My team has been actively interviewing. My current employer's HR/recruiting is better than most places I've seen. Even so, it's still opaque. After we do our bit, we have no idea what happens to our candidates.

Without any feedback, the whole exercise feels pointless. For both sides.

God spare me for saying this, because I hate JIRA with the passion of billion imploding stars, but we need some kind of candidate tracking system, perhaps modeled after issue trackers, coupled with some basic CRM features (call log, tickle reminders, etc).

Just dealing with the different laws about taxi services in different countries/cities itself would require a staff that size or more. And there's a lot more than that behind the scenes, like security checks on drivers, managers for each city to decide incentive plans for drivers etc. It's a very massive endeavour, and the size of the company is justified.

Should Uber's next CEO be a robot?
Uber under TK was criticized for breaking laws, but those laws were in place to protect incumbents from market entry. In NYC, were AirBnB does break NYC and NY State laws, Uber does not. It follows the rules of the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission. Except for the Mayor that tried to restrict Uber/Lyft for political reasons to help the incumbents, we New Yorkers welcome Uber/Lyft.

> Quake ran just fine on P133. I know because I owned one at the time.

In the absence of hardware acceleration, the Pentium 133 outperformed the Cyrix CPU by a wide margin when running Quake. You are correct that with hardware acceleration, the CPU was far less of an issue. But all I had was a crummy ATI Mach 64, which was not even a good 2D card. So for me, the CPU was the bottle neck.

Ironically, on integer workloads, the Cyrix was a lot faster than the counterparts made by Intel. But their FPU performance was rather underwhelming. On top of that, Quake had hand-rolled assembly code that took advantage of the Pentium's architecture.

I never knew that people used Linux primarily to play Quake. ;-)
Also, people fired for making complaints.

That has the nice property that it's illegal, the whistleblower can get compensated, but only if they already have the means to wage a legal battle.
This seems like the 'bubble' deflating.

Not so much a bang, more of a fizzle as "the big kids" come in and cut deeply.

That and investors keeping out of seed-stage funding because it has gotten so bloated by everyone wanting their own startup.

I've seen Genius, Etsy, Uber... etc. It seems like a lot more startups are getting shook up and cut down.
A lot like this, as I understand it. Publicly traded companies have a fair bit of information generally available, but for a private supplier you might well demand some financials to establish enough confidence to pair with them.

What's distinctive here, I guess, is that Walmart has the weight to get that info and then start making demands instead of just deciding whether to trust the partner.
Poor people aren't racist (well, some are, racism knows no class boundaries), but many minorities are in poverty due to racist policies (or their families were pushed into poverty by said policies and the poverty cycle is incredibly hard to break out of, even if the policies have been largely removed or mitigated).
1. I haven't done a fully bootstrapped ETN yet so Turing Completeness comes from ETNs that compile to TC languages. I haven't played with a bottom up parser, just because a top down parser works so fantastically.

2. For data analytics, stay tuned for later today. Releasing Ohayo, an ETN editor which ships with an ETN called Flow for data science and analytics. For AI, I have some rough prototypes but it is clear to me that a better representation for large trained models is to be found in ETNs.
> The issue is that ~6-8 people in the world own the same amount of wealth as the bottom 40% of the world,

Broadly speaking, isn't this because the bottom 40% of the world don't have savings? The statistic seems misleading. You could have 1 dollar, and you'd have greater wealth than more or less everyone in the world with a mortgage.
It wasn't only predictable, but, in the US, its not even new; it's been a significant, powerful feature of the political landscape and since almost precisely the time the Democratic Party leadership was conquered by the neoliberal/DLC Third Way movement led by Bill Clinton. (Remember H. Ross Perot and the campaign that launched the party under whose banner Donald J. Trump would launch his first Presidential run in 2000?)

It's had limited policy impact because the electoral system limits the scope of viable alternatives and both major parties have leveraged other divisive issues to keep the wide opposition to neoliberal policies from being electorally decisive.

The only real question given the durable and strong opposition in the electorate (cutting across the usual left/right divide) to neoliberal globalization, was which major party would, rather than diverting from that, harness the opposition by nominaing a candidate willing to at least rhetorically reject the neoliberal globalist elite consensus first.

And trusting people to have free speech is definitely going to be abused by people who want to say controversial things. And trusting people to use encryption is definitely going to be abused by criminals who want to commit crimes. And trusting people to own kitchen knives is definitely going to be abused by people who want to stab others.

Yes, we can all make factually true, but totally irrelevant arguments that don't change anything.

Taleb addresses this too. Of course somebody DID predict it. I don't know if that means the event is, in general, "predictable." If you put 1 million people in a room and told them to randomly guess what events would occur next, someone would predict correctly. The question is, should WE (as a society) have predicted this? Did reasonable application of our knowledge permit us to know this? I don't know the answer to that question.
Me too. That awful gifv has never worked on my older Samsung tablet. I don't understand why not and I gave up trying to diagnose the problem.

Other imaging hosts that serve up .mp4's as substitutes for .gif like giphy work just fine. It's just Imgur that couldn't figure out how to make this work properly.
Search has been dramatically improved. Difficulties with large mailboxes are often a complex function of many variables with things like client side javascript decryption speeds often playing a large role. While testing is done with large mailboxes as part of the development process, the ultimate solution for people with extremely large boxes will likely be the use of the Bridge program with an IMAP mail client such as Microsoft Outlook. There are unofficial export programs available that call pull all mail out through Proton's API. An official, supported, export (and import) program is planned for the future.
Is the data for that sort of thing available anywhere? It would be good to visualize it.
> global average wage is $2k ... not per month. Per year

How much was it before Globalization ?
This has been my experience. I'll stick it out for 6mos, but if there is too much hazing, bro-culture, weird expectations, the power dynamics within teams are upside down (usually a hierarchy with project managers at the top and engineers at the bottom), no institutional memory, no 360's after projects, some weird hybrid of agile/kanban where you literally standup while the client shuffles priorities and deadlines daily and no sprint planning can effectively happen, everything is always an emergency, and there is little to no transparency then the bar is very very low to get the hell out and take my raise at a new company.

I'm really impressed by the attention to detail for a brand new product.

I know they spent a couple years getting to this point, but I can really appreciate the quick, well-designed iOS app, and the native, non-Chromium / non-Electron Mac app that only uses 35MB of RAM and has no noticeable idle CPU draw. It's such a stark contrast with Slack and most of today's pseudo-native apps.

> However, you probably won't be able to do std::vector<YourDClassType>. ABI compatibility is not enough to do this as you would be effectively mixing C++ and D source code here.

I think this should be working. You don't have to 'mix source code', you can implement YourDClassType in D and use it in C++. You simply have to write a C++ header describing the class. Then write a D file describing the external C++ sdt::vector<YourDClassType> file and link everything together.

Not sure if anybody actively tested this though ;-)
