Easy fix - only tax the takers. I agree the 0.5% is a bit steep on both sides. If only to takers and makers aren't taxed, seems like it could work. Would also probably add a ton of liquidity to the markets.
Almost all of the drugs I have in my cabinet are expired, and all have been 100% potent as the day I got it when I needed to take it years later. I have known this for a long time. There is also a reason the expiration date on your prescriptions is exactly one year after you get it from the pharmacy, when those bottles are actually sitting in a different bottle for months and months at the pharmacy. The entire reason for a 1 year expiration date is money.

Your assumption about institutional investors buying and selling at roughly the same rate is wrong. When one firm decides that Microsoft is overprices, a lot of firms are probably going to decide the same thing. Then it's a race to see who can extract the most value out of the market before the price corrects.
I always assumed that the expiration date was partly legal, in the way that you only have 1 year within which you can legally have the drug in your system.

Are you implying that you still hold this assumption and are looking for someone to convince you otherwise? If so, I can't even conceive of where you got this idea in the first place, let alone argue against it. Let's slap a little Occam's Razor on this: how would you even begin to enforce this?

I was able to snag a Glass for a good price when they killed support (before selling it off again after a couple months). I enjoyed using it, and being on a college campus at the time reduced some of the social awkwardness. I could push notifications to my face with IFTTT and the voice recognition worked reasonably well. Ironically, I found the most useful feature to be the camera. It's liberating to be able to wink and get a snapshot of whatever is in your field of view, whether it's some info you want to remember or a small moment you want to share. I'm on vacation now and find myself fumbling with my phone to take snaps of interesting things I want to share way too often.

Sure. I'm not trying to suggest it is an enhancement in the work process, just that it may be even considering the GP's sentiment of "Seems like if the mechanic just had to turn around to access the ring-binder, instead of walking down a flight of stairs, the efficiency difference would be less." by providing additional information that may not have been considered.

Kotlin is absolutely not taking over: click bait suprise!

Kotlin is simply a less verbose Java 8. It doesn't offer any solid unifying concepts that make it more ergonomic. From an idea perspective, it offers the same toolbox for constructing programs that Java uses.

At least the author gives a sentence or two to Clojure and Scala. Those languages actually give one something different on the JVM. Fundamentally, these languages embrace functional programming concepts. This important design choice leads to a superior programming paradigm that trounces Java and, by extension, Kotlin.

I'm really glad you decided to link that IBM page because I can use to to show you that your "inversion" metric is one I really do reject.

I've rewritten the top of the document to invert it.

https://pastebin.com/YmKB0uNV

I stopped, but obviously could have continued to go through the rest of the document. So by your proposed standard of "is the inverted version still good" the answer is "absolutely". But that doesn't make these good values!

I agree with you that it is not a great document at all. Even though it can be inverted without any problem or challenge. I simply can't accept the inversion tool you proffered.
Oh, I see.

To be fair, there might be some more productivity gains lurking around the corner if augmented reality allows a tighter integration of each process in the factory line.

Any time lost involving searching anything in the factory floor could be reduced with augmented reality by peppering the world with "quest markers".

Besides the 10% gain on searching which parts of the engine you're supposed to either screw in or unscrew out, there might be a gain when searching your wrench, when searching Joe, when trying to find out where exactly the new parts are and so on.

I bet in the future this will be enhanced with Google providing various stats and scores based on the social and advertising profile people have.

For example a % score with something like this: "Trustworthiness", "Political activism", "Obedience", "Addictions", "Laziness", "Morality", "Extroversion" etc.

It will be opaque and derived from their "secret sauce" by scouring GMail, DNS queries from your IP, phone calls you made on your Android phone, stuff you bought and search for in Chrome and so on.

Some companies and even landlords check credit scores when you apply. Criminal records. Border patrol checks social account postings. Imagine having access to all non-public stuff Google and Facebook has.

I wonder if that some point they'd know people better than people know themselves at. I kinda experienced that with Netflix when I was a subscriber. It suggested movies that at first glance I wouldn't think I'd enjoy but the algorithm had figured me out enough that if I took the suggestion, it usually was right and I ended up liking the movie. It was a pleasant and creepy surprise at the same time.

Automating the work done by human traders, market makers, and specialists has not only facilitated decimilization resulting in smaller spreads, but also allowed trading fees for the retail investor to reach historic lows (the worst you'll find at a retail brokerage nowadays is about $8/trade, far better than the $35/trade), with many even being free. Wall Street had always been raking in billions in profit from market making activity, if anything that profit margin has been significantly reduced by automating market making.

Yes, but it is not adjusted per-block, but every 2016 blocks (Which is 2 weeks time if each block takes 10 minutes to find).

It's also worth keeping in mind the problem that timestamps are technically forge-able by the miner. Bitcoin doesn't really solve this problem, but it does place requirements that the timestamp of a block be larger then the average of the past 11 (With various constraints). Thus if you presumably have mining distributed enough, then one giving you as invalid of a time as would still be accepted wouldn't end-up affecting things long-term since they can't generate blocks fast enough to heavily affect the average. Still technically an attack vector though.
If I'm trying to hire people, why wouldn't I want to "tip people off" to what I want? I'm supposed to lie and then trick people into telling me what they're really capable of? That seems ineffective.

Interviewing people about their experience is a traditional way to verify things. E.g. If I'm looking for someone who can solve hard problems I can ask for examples. If they're beginning programmer who just got handed tasks like "code this function"... they will have no good examples.

I can also explain a problem I'm working on and see how the candidate approaches it.

But writing job posting that hides the fact I need someone who can solve hard problems seems silly.
Heh. Perhaps that is true. But since we're all up here operating at speeds far slower than planck time I am gonna cheat and call it continuous. For the discussion at hand it is true enough.
> working less intensively gave you time to think and physically rest

I don't buy this argument, honestly. By extension, you're saying we should go back to manual book-keeping instead of computers to do accounting, because it would employ more accountants, and let them work at a more relaxed pace.

Looking up documentation, for example, is not an intellectually demanding task. Instead of going back and forth between printed reference, being distracted, forgetting what you read and having to re-check it, this helps reduce the feedback loop and that makes work more intellectually engaging and interesting because the worker can focus on things that actually require thought, rather than menial tasks.

People will still take breaks and slack off, it's human nature, and they should be able to, if you demand continued unbroken attention, you will end up with people who make a lot more mistakes, I expect (citation needed).

I am much more worried about automated performance metrics and gamification of work, those do offer levers for the employers to push the employees beyond sane limits.

I work for a company that has some periphery exposure to FDA-regulation, and as a result we have to do a lot of very similar scientific calculations to satisfy their archival records. A big part of why most medicines still expire (at least for medicines available over the counter) much earlier than they should is that a majority of the testing is done to determine the expiration date at a controlled temperature, pressure, and humidity.

They test how it degrades under stress to determine a maximum viability under perfectly stable conditions. They are not accounting for the typical medicine storage places: a bathroom cabinet where the temperature and humidity will vary wildly within a matter of minutes, a cool, damp fridge, or even the reading table next to your bed-- constantly exposed to UV light from the windows.

I'm relaying this secondhand from a former FDA contractor, but I can only surmise that for a company with the litagative risk level that any pharmaceutical entity incurs, the old adage of "Better Safe Than Sorry" is a major part of the story that's missing here.
THE ANDroid BACKDOOR THAT COULD RUIN EVERYTHING
A distinction needs to be made based on goals: are you exercising for general wellness, or are you training for a goal? I'm not saying one should injure themselves when training, that's counterproductive. But exercising for general wellness shouldn't be intense. Do something to gently, mildly raise your heart rate for 30 minutes, three times a week. That's a baseline. Try to extend that to an hour a day, but don't up the intensity. That's about optimal for overall health.
Sure, but this is combined with all other information over that minute/hour. Suppose you had exactly 1 price exchange per day, now yes you might gain incite waiting for that last millisecond, but you have to weigh all other information over the day, approximate it's changes in the price, and then make a bid. Further if the ticks are say every 15 minutes it's easy to not disclose information on a tick boundary. (Simply because of relative time frames.)
I think it is legal in that the real expiration date is guaranteed to lie after the date on the box.

The myth is that "lie after" should be read as "equals", which is often far from the truth apparently.
How do I contact you, mabbo? Or should I ask here directly? I'm interested. Actually this thread is a great coincidence as I decided yesterday that I'm going to invest the next months to reallocate to another country and Canada is on the top of my list (I'm Brazilian). My biggest doubt is: should I look for a job from here in Brazil or it would be better to go to Canada first and look there? I'm a 29 years old self-taught developer, programming for a living since 12 with some international clients/employers.
I'm interested :), are people from Brazil welcome?

So now assume they test and find it doesn't work on mobile Firefox. What should they do? Refrain from rolling out the design to Chrome and Safari until Firefox performance catches up, or roll out the functionality differently on different browsers?

I've been doing a lot of running, and last night I was thinking about my progression and how important it is to not push yourself too far/hard into injury. I've gone through all sorts of bodily injury and growth, and have gradually increased the intensity and duration of my runs over several years.

Here's the advice I decided on:

* First focus on duration. Exercise (cardio, I jog/run) at least 20 minutes. Go as slow as you need to be comfortable and dont worry about distance. Stop or slow down at any sign of injury, focus on good form.

* Gradually increase distance/duration goals. I started aiming for 3 miles or 30 minutes, then I increased gradually to 6 miles / hour (what I currently do). Continue paying attention to your form, and also to your breathing. Sometimes I get pains in the chest or feel short on breath, and if I try mixing up my breathing techniques I feel better. Try to breathe into your nostrils.

* Increase intensity. I commonly get advice from very fit people to do high intensity training. I tried to early on, but my body would just have a really hard time with it. I'm finally just starting to increase intensity, particularly toward the end of my run. Master good form and breathing before doing this, and preferably when your body doesnt hurt.

Speaking of pain, I've had a lot of growing pain through this process. There are certainly different types of injuries in regards to whether you can continue exercising on them. I don't know much about the technicalities here, but if it feels better as you run (this happens with my feet/ankles) then it's prbably good for you to exercise on (RICE vs MEAT or something). Don't run on the injuries that need rest, but don't let the injuries that you can exercise with hold you back.

Also speaking of motivation, I constantly have that lazy and tired feeling of not wanting to go, but I always feel better when I do. Controlling yourself is key for all of the things i mentioned, especially for getting out there and doing it!
Fondly I remember devouring each issue of Mondo 2000 as if it held some grand promise of future about to happen.

I even bought some "Smart Drugs" and techno t-shirts but it was all for nought.

Even more than Wired, Mondo 2000 was this techno fetish fantasy that was never going to happen.

In some respects I am reminded of a line of Victor' Pelevin's from "Generation P" where the writer for this high concept underground magazine is in reality a balding father of three with a mortage and 4 starving mouths to feed.
Yes, I know.

My point was that in principle, you could abuse reaction wheels to give you translation capability if you're moving through air.
Classic source control had this problem.

The clever trick is to reencode the previous most-recent backup as a delta from the current state, and do a full-backup of the current state, rather than encoding each new backup as a delta from the previous state (which becomes slower and slower to compute, the more previous states you have).

Problem solved :)

> There is a fine line between persistence and annoyance. I once had a journalist write me after we had an announcement that was covered by the press, “Why didn’t you let me know?! I would have written about that!” I had sent him three emails about the upcoming announcement to which he never responded.

And that's the reason folks why people follow-up. People might share a deep repulsion towards them and until recently, even I abhorred the idea. But, I have seen people I emailed respond a few weeks after I sent a follow-up—the point when I assumed I am pestering and the other guy is getting infuriated. My email wasn't about selling something, it was a small question around someone else's work but the general principle applies.

I am not courageous—salesman-type courageous—to send more than one follow-up but I have consistently seen people winning big deals in the third or fourth one. It's undeniable that many people will get vexed in the process but there's hardly any salesperson in the world who didn't annoy that many.

> Shortest terms I can put this is: our country needs the money that Wall Street siphons off of the economy. We need more government money to educate, house, feed, and care for people. High frequency trading, unlike traditional investment, is not a "mom and pop" thing, it's a tool only accessible to the wealthy to enrich themselves. Thus, we should disincentivize it in order to generate tax revenue and discourage practices that are not accessible to shareholders.

If I understand you correctly, there are a couple issues you're bringing up:

1. Wall Street "siphons" off money from the economy.
2. The US government needs higher revenues.
3. HFT, as distinguished from "traditional investment," only benefits the rich.
4. 1-3 are problems whose best solution is to tax HFT specifically.

First, I think it's important to distinguish between "Wall Street" and "HFT." "Wall Street" is composed of the largest banks in the world (Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, etc.). Wall Street owns trillions of dollars worth of assets and has income in the 100s of billions of dollars each year. All HFT revenue in the US is estimated at less than $2 billion per year [1].

As for "siphoning" - do you mean to imply that making money by buying and selling a financial asset is somehow cheating someone, unfair, or something else? Or do you think that by sometimes functioning as "middle-men," HFT and Wall Street's are somehow cheating someone, unfair, or some other bad thing?

What is "traditional investment?"

What do you think of the fact that Wall Street and HFT firms combine to pay many billions of dollars in income taxes?
