Did you read the article? The article mentions that control may be more centralized than before but its impact is limited to simply favoring stocks that are perceived to exist for an extended period of time and consistently tick upward in price.

Furthermore the article specifically mentions that its impact is limited because index funds are more "hands-off" than anything else. This implies there is not more central planning, and (more to the point) there is no planning -- just a reflexive response to stock price movement.

This is the purest expression of the "invisible hand of the market."

Shareholders means owners. Are you suggesting that companies should be managed for the benefit of their suppliers and employees and not of their owners? Probably you could have included customers as well... Why would anyone want to own a company in that case?
If that was only true...

For "happy employees leads to happy customers", consider almost every company in existence, of any kind, in any sector. Do customers in general mind that the people making their electronics are underpaid, abused and unhappy? That the people serving them food in the restaurants are underpaid, abused and unhappy? That their doctors are overworked and unhappy? No. The happiness of employees starts and ends with "suck it up, smile nicely, or else lose your job and/or career prospects".

The more difficult to debunk is "happy customers leads to happy share holders". It is true in some cases, but it's also false in many more. Consider telcos or ISPs as a pretty stark example of companies doing totally fine with very unhappy customers.
Nope, it still seems as hostile as ever. Every top voted comment on a thread concerning crypto will be people cheering its inevitable demise and mocking its naive supporters.

I can only imagine it's a mixture of jealousy and sour grapes from missing out on crypto's rise, but it feels strange that a forum dedicated to tech is so angry and dismissive towards a really interesting new technology.
Is this a troll or you are really blaming Amazon for a fault in a shitty router?

Agreed. I often don't have the resources on the target required to even attempt this.
I had not considered this angle, thank you for commenting.
Completely. I also see more coverage in media and I think it it related. Also, beyond the hype there are technical issues that are important to discuss here.
What a horrible idea. Their original user interface consisting of a logo, a search bar, and two buttons is iconic and made up a great deal of what set google apart from its competitors. I know the first time I used Google in the late 90's, the thing I noticed was the user interface. I was a middle school kid then and knew nothing of PageRank. The reason I kept going back to google was their UI.
We built the editing tool for our users who would like to create Searchtrack guides to break down and express their knowledge. Unfortunately, it's not an open-source software. You can however request an invite to access it after signing up.
It also strongly depends on the type of tool you use. If by "static analysis" you mean "Clang screams at me if I'm juggling with razor blades", the results mostly seem to be rather useful.

But I've yet to see one of those code-visualizing tools based on metrics that convinces me. The results I've seen so far are either obvious ("I already knew that, thanks") or inconclusive and hard to interpret. So, to me those tools seem to be more of a way to try and convince your manager that you should be given time for refactorings than actual utilities.

I've been wondering if there could be a benefit in analyzing the commit history of a project instead so that one could somehow at least visualize obvious problem areas ("every third bugfix has to touch this piece of code, so we should really have a proper cleanup there...").

If someone is struggling with opioid addiction and switch to kratom, they don't get that same fuzzy feeling, they just feel... better.

Granted, people can switch to Kratom and take a huge dose to try and catch a buzz but most people that want to use Kratom to actually stop will take a maintenance dose. No different from using Suboxone to taper down.

I would say talk to the person they report to. If that's not an option for some reason, tread cautiously. You need to provide specific examples and how it impacted you and the organization.

"Hey, the other day when you forced pushed over my code, that was not fun. I lost a day's worth of work and it impacted the team."

If you can't back up what you're saying with concrete examples, you will be ignored.
I don't know about pasta but with bread you will find d that even whole wheat breads are sweetened. No way they would do this in Germany or France.

And sauces have a ton of added sugar too.
Agreed. Until recently, my team was responsible for most of the official IBM Watson service demos, and we standardized on React for those and built up a nice library of react components[1]. None of them used Redux, though, because in general it just wasn't needed.

When we handed off responsibility of these demos to the individual service teams, we wrote up guidelines that specifically recommended React but not Redux - with the logic that if the demo is getting to a point where Redux is providing value, then it's probably too complex for a demo.

Our new project is a more involved web app that includes lots of state, shared across many different components, and we're making great use of Redux there.

I think this article ignores some very important risk factors.

Safety requirements will easily hit that. Replacing airbags alone after an accident costs $3-5k. The crash test videos posted up-thread show there's a lot more than just airbags lacking, too.
That is pure security by obscurity. If I know the output of the PRNG, and that this method is being used, I also know the random number. So attacking it is no harder than attacking the PRNG itself.

Letting small cars squeeze between 2 other small cars that happen to currently be on opposite sides of their adjacent lanes might help too. Ignoring speed limits, lights, signs; tailgating; ramming people off the road; all great ways to reduce traffic.
True, but bread and pasta have been around for a lot longer than the obesity problem. What's changed over the last however many years is that people stopped cooking their own food, stopped moving, replaced water with soda and so on.
I think you mean the other way around, right? I can eat more broccoli than carrots? The carrots take up quite a bit of space in your stomach, and I would wager their GI is far below breads/etc., so I would expect that I'd run out of space in my stomach before their GI became something to worry about. I'm someone who used to (and still does sometimes) eat an entire loaf of bread at once (God help me), so I'm not worried about carrots.
No not at all. Miners are the ones generating blocks and validating them though the giant distributed work they each do. Without miners there would be no new blocks which means no verified transactions. The only place trades could still happen is on exchanges because they all happen off block and don't rely on the blockchain to track who owns what but it'd be impossible to move more coins onto or out of an exchange so you'd be stuck.
This is a non-sense of article as other spaniards have commented. The only companies that close 3 hours in the middle of the day are the shops, usually small shops. They do it because for long part of the year no one goes to the street from 2pm to 5pm, because it is so fucking hot. So instead, our culture close the shops at those times but keep them opens until 9pm or later. It is very common to see shops full of people from 7pm to 9pm.

Some offices have 2 hours lunch break, which I also find non-sense. But 1 hour is usually not enough for us for lunch, we don't eat sandwiches, we are used to do a proper meal with 2 dishes, dessert and coffee.

We also eat quite late, around 2pm or 3pm, but that is mostly because our time doesn't match the Solar time. We should have 1,5 hour less in our clocks. Which makes we really eat at 12:30-1pm of sun time. That is what most countries do as well.

We do take naps, only in summer on our holidays. Usually from 3pm to 5pm, because as I said, it is so fucking hot in summer at those hours. But any foreign who is here in summer does the same (actually probably more % of foreigns take naps than spaniash). People who also have an intense 8hours day job from 7am to 3pm they also take naps, because they wake up quite early and the social life starts at 6-7pm.

Bonus: we don't add chorizo to the paella. The chorizo is mostly for the bbq
In your description I still take away that the root problem isn't in the technology, but in the engineer's implementation. Even a calculation that is guaranteed to produce the correct results [if implemented poorly or with errors or with exclusions] can fail.

The engineer who wrote the contract appears to have made a critical logical error.

That does bring me to your conclusion, though. I've paid less attention to the marketing and promises and have assessed the technology as-is (within the confines of my knowledge) -- as such I see what's possible instead of seeing it as a product that under-delivers.

I wonder if a lot of people (especially on HN) would view it differently if it weren't for such bold claims on the developers' part. I mean, I think you're probably right in it being naive in its guarantee of predictability. I think any actors on the platform should assume its supposedly perfectly predictable behaviour is not quite so when they take to designing software or a contract. But that's part of what I meant when I've said it comes down to engineering practice -- when it comes to critical systems assumptions just shouldn't be made in young technology no matter what anybody tries to sell you.
I'm sure this varies between people, but for me, moderation in carbs doesn't work. Having a small scoop of ice cream or a little bit of pasta is completely unsatisfying, and in fact ignites a craving to stuff my face until my stomach hurts.

It's like telling an alcoholic to just have one glass of wine a day-- yeah that would be great if it works, but it's not really helpful advice for some people.
Start by talking to this person's manager. You have prior experience in this situation, which means you would be an effective mentor for getting this person out of this situation. However, such a relationship should begin with, be approved by, and be on the radar of this person's manager.

We are not approaching Star Trek levels of medicine. In Star Trek, they can heal wounds by shining a light on them. They can erase and alter people's memory. They can scan for problems using a handheld device. They can cure blindness with a visor. We are nowhere near any of that.

I know this doesn't really matter much, but if we're going to throw in hyperbole, it should at least be somewhat accurate. I think people are boo'ing anyone who brings up this point because it's such an incredible achievement. That's true, it is, and it's amazing that brain damage was reversed. But Star Trek is a useful, iconic yardstick for measuring our progress. Saying we're close to it discounts how much work we have left to do.
You could try using the Socratic method.
It just looks like market manipulation (which is not illegal in an unregulated market). Pump the price up to make huge profits shorting on the next big dump (August 1?), then buy a lot and pump it again.

Except Google Now still completely sucks because you have close to zero direct control on what gets shown there.

Also: I like that they're experimenting, but come on. Replacing a settings menu with a list of very specific yes/no questions that are added to that list as you encounter them - that's just wrong. You don't even get a benefit of being able to scroll through a settings screen to discover what features are available...
This sounds like a good use case for Promise.all() and fetch:

const first = fetch(endpoint1);
const rest = Promise.all([
fetch(e2), fetch(e3), fetch(e4),
]);
// cancel here
const json1 = await first.json();
const json234 = await rest.json();

While native promises can't cancel on their own, with a library like Bluebird you can get that functionality.
Ultimately that boils down to a semantic distinction, and not one advancing the state of knowledge. Calling some phenomenon magical or mysterious just means you don't want to study it, not that it can't be studied.
Funny story(so anecdotal): I'm male, and 50. From the time I was a small boy, I kept my wallet in my back left pocket, and keys in my front left pocket. As an experiment (late 30s) I decided to move them to the right pockets. It took nearly a decade before this felt 'natural', and even now I sometimes put them in the wrong pocket if distracted. TLDR: habits are powerful, make sure to start only good ones.
It was mostly employment costs and logistics cost (one big store is much cheaper than lots of small ones).

So sorry, but this option and home delivery too come at a significantly higher cost to me (about 2x for this one, about 1.3x for home delivery).

In both cases, I think having a car is cheaper. Definitely cheaper than going to local stores.

"Almost" no carbs is very different than OP's triple assertion of "you're mistaken", "not required" and "zero".

Being an Indian, I was raised on a diet with the major macro-nutrient as carbohydrates (wheat and rice), it was hard to switch to a low carb ketogenic diet. But once I switched the health benefits were tremendous - 30lb weight loss and prediabetic symptoms gone.

Also, ketogenic doesn't mean you completely give up on carbs. I take about 2-3 cups of green vegetables everyday. These veggies have very low amount of carbs < 10-20gms. Rest is fiber which has no glycemic load. Also, once you are keto-adapted, all the craving for carb goes away as your brain is well fed on Ketones - much cleaner fuel when compared to glucose.
from someone who lived briefly in madrid: offices take up to 2h lunch. smaller shops and commerce takes around 3. workday can go up to 8pm, like most offices around the world and nobody expects extra paid hours.

now, that was changing at the time. big stores, mostly H&M/zara/forever21 style of chinese fashion dump, are open from 9 to 9 like in the US. big international brands of super markets too.

thats was causing lots of conflicts from unions and such. and that was over 6 years ago. so maybe those companies managed to redefine it in the last decade?
> The human body ~100 grams of protein, ~10 grams of fat, and zero carbs to stay healthy

Could you provide source (studies not blogposts or youtube videos) on this matter?

Also what is your opinion on 80/10/10 or Okinawa diet? Okinavians used to get most of their calories from carbs and they had one of the longest lifespans in the world.

All things considered I am not against the keto diet but the food that people on it eat. Animal based fats, usually heavily processed meats like bacon, sausages etc on which there are peer reviewed studies that show their correlation to cancer and heart deceases. Most of the information can be found here: https://nutritionfacts.org/ the videos linked have their sources provided in the description. And those are mostly peer reviewed studies as well!

Given that any sequence of {heads, tails} is equally likely to any other sequence of {heads, tails} for a fair coin, what information does flipping the coin give you? There's no way to disprove that a coin is fair.
Mid-life hearing loss is very high on the list. But how does one prevent it?
We are indeed. Still, we are testing the prices and different pricing models every day. We got customers paying for our solution, which is nice.
There is no essential carbohydrate, the body can derive any glucose it needs from essential fats and proteins.

That said, I'm keto and find it difficult to stay under 30 grams of carbohydrates per-day simply because carbs are in so many foods. I've, a few times, gone "strict" keto i.e 10g< of total carbs per day which includes indigestible fiber and I (anecdata coming at you) felt great.

i just can't understand why someone would want python for embedded applications. i primarily use labview for systems development, and there is not a single thing that would be gained by moving to python while many things would be lost. and no one can convince me that using python over labview would generate more robust code. i have used python before, and it was slower to develop in and more error prone than labview for system development.

personally, i want to see more lisps/schemes and ML-based languages on embedded systems. i know there are some, but they aren't quite there. that's the direction i think we should move. python isn't the best at any one thing other than having lots of libraries. there are far more productive dynamic languages (lisps/schemes) and far better languages for developing safe code (ML-based). i am currently learning idris, which seems like it could be amazing for embedded code development. having provable state machines would be a huge plus.
To be honest where I come from a shop closing at 8pm is early.

True, the smallest ones are open between 8am and 7pm, but they're loosing market share in favor of mini-markets, which are usually open from 7am to 9-10pm.

And if that's not enough there are liquor stores and petrol stations, both of which are usually open 24/7.
> Water is transported in pipes. This reduces my need to transport beverages substantially.

They even come with free lead. Also they're government-owned, almost guaranteeing that if these pipes cause health issues (as they have in numerous examples, like Flint, Michigan) you won't get any restitution.

> Most Europeans would disagree.

I have lived in Europe. No they won't. Well, if you put it in those exact terms they might.

But the question asked here: "can public transport replace a car for you ?" would get a very strong "no" from most Europeans.
Except it hasn't worked everywhere. The point was that this was a practical issue and not a cultural one. Someone in "the west" who is paranoid about getting the flu just gets a flu shot.

> black people tend to have more dense fast twitch muscle, while white people tend to have less dense slow twitch muscle

I think you may be confusing fast twitch muscle density, as in the ratio of fast twitch to slow twitch muscles, with density as a physical property. As far as I know fast twitch muscles aren't any more dense than slow twitch muscles.
