> Which is not say that a minimum wage increase won't cause unemployment of marginal employees but it sure as hell doesn't make employing them illegal.

It sure as hell makes it unprofitable. For honesty you're skipping out over a bunch of interesting points to bolster your own viewpoint..

Either you hire them under the table (illegally) to do tasks you're able to get a computer or robot to do but you don't want to make the capital investment, or you hire them for the minimum wage, put them on the books until you've saved enough money to invest in things that would make your business more profitable.

Minimum wage does make it illegal to hire low skilled workers. They're getting replaced by robots and computers. In agriculture, because of a perceived crackdown on immigrants, they're simultaneously raising the wages they pay for workers and investing in technology that will make the workers obsolete.

I live in NYC. I am surrounded by people. They're above me and below me. I pass thousands of people every day on the street. I don't talk to them or know their names, I certainly don't ask them for help.

I ask blogs what movie to watch. I ask YouTube to show me how to tie a tie. I ask Udemy for learning. I ask Facebook for an update on my social life. This list could go on forever...

Better, IMO, is a relatively simple accounting change. Start charging rents for the real estate used by departments, and use the proceeds to fund those departments. It's a win-win: departments can more efficiently use their funding, and constituents get a better sense of the true costs of the services involved.
To add to what dvirsky said [and I'm also from Redis Labs]

- Redis Enterprise adds some enhancements to the Redis storage layer (details are in the blog).

- This benchmark only tested the Redis Enterprise. The idea was to show how fast Redis (Enterprise) can run on a single node with ACID transactions and still keep sub-millisecond latency. Note the hidden point - at the moment you cannot achieve sub-millisecond latency over the cloud (any cloud) storage, I mean persistent storage that is attached to an instance and not the local storage, which is ephemeral by design. So in-order to see how far we can go we decided to test it over Dell-EMC's VMAX that doesn't have these limitations

- In theory adding CPUs/cores can of course help, as you can add more shards to the Redis cluster and increase the parallelism when accessing the storage. That said, we haven't tested it over AMD ThreadRipper.
A more capable replacement in the store for free would make up for this. I usually install gimp, but rarely use it for more than quick crops and some brightness adjustments. So, lighter than gimp, more capable than paint...

Having a company wide git hook for clang-format-diff [1] really solves a lot of problems. No unrelated linting changes (unless people don't know how to use their editor, but that gets caught in code review and people learn) and consistency is kept with very little man-hours spent. Proper tooling applied pragmatically is nice.

Well some people do, but my point was that to truly get the benefits of travel that Mark Twain was referring to, you can't just dabble.

Back when he traveled, this was before airlines and even the Titanic. "Traveling" required spending months to get places far away so you certainly didn't spend just a week in a single place and then return.

Do you have an example of "traditional (inverted-)back-trace"?
Slowly but surely, yes. But definitely slow enough that there's still a significant amount of the Windows CE powered hardware around.

Swapping the hardware is the easy part but integrating new components with your SAP powered warehouse (with custom things your $1k+/day SAP specialists have flown in and written and left undocumented) itself is generally a massive project.

I have seen or worked multiple still maintained projects way older then 5 years - with parts of old code still there. Most of them in java or .net.
>None of them advertise that.

App Academy does. They list Google on their home page.

They do seem to place some people with Google, but from what I've learned looking into them though, I think it has more to do with selection than training.

To me, it seems like top bootcamps are 3 month long interviews that the interviewee pays for.
Doing the right thing is admirable. Doing something that helps a little bit, when the group that you are trying to help may or may not try to destroy you, seems like its not such a great idea. If a company doesn't have a set of published procedures for reporting a bug its not worth helping them
Anybody who studied how British dock workers were hired in the late 19th Century could have told you this.

Those who fail to study history are doomed to repeat it.

Never believe the hype about extreme individualism. You will always certainly make far more money if you team up with others and make your case politically.
"almost always" atomicity means "not atomic". (if i guess correctly, there is no stage/commit phase for data mutations in the aof persistence, so i believe incremental changes are written to the AOF as the script runs so you can have partially-applied updates on restore if your redis process dies in the middle of executing a watch/multi/exec or lua script.) also, instances die all the time.
Because S <: S in most (all?) type systems with subtyping.
Sure, but that is just one study, and anyways, doesn't negate that the theory exists at all. Besides, minimum wage laws aren't the only way to do that, the market does it naturally (those worth employing at all already demanded more than minimum wage anyways).
> If a company pays 65% of their employees the minimum and wages go up 5% the company doesn't fire most of its workers it grudgingly pays more.

It depends on what the company's alternatives are. Many companies have only 5% margins to begin with. And most people who suggest minimum wage increases argue for more than just 5%.

> In a lot of cases the existing low wage is actually below market now and subsidized by benefits like food stamps.

That is one of the problems a UBI fixes. Since the money isn't contingent on employment, employers can't pay less against the leverage that without a job the employee would lose their food assistance.
Uh. Are you thinking of Japan? The Qing dynasty was brought down by more than just a few gunships.

Two I am familiar with are OpenERP and OpenEMR.

OpenERP, now Odoo, is written in Python.

OpenEMR is written in PHP. It dates from a while ago, but has been mostly updated to the latest PSR standards.

Like I said, there's a demand for affordable housing and in Berlin that means very affordable. Lots of students, lots of artistans, and also lots of unemployed people.

> Either way 15% in 3 years is still rent control.

...which affects very few people.

There are some places that suddenly became "hip", where rent increases drove out lots of low-income people, which caused political backlash. These people really just had to move to less popular places.
>Are you honestly saying that commonly available technology in the early 90's was capable of replacing as many jobs as it is today?

I don't need to say that, fewer jobs being lost should have still have had an impact and those studies didn't find one. There are other periods in history where the leaps forward did have something like this level of impact, and jobs didn't disappear then either.

>With those basic and reasonable assumptions in place, minimum wage increases today will cost minimum wage jobs.

Your reasonable assumptions include this same process happening throughout history. It has had the same result throughout history, yet you're predicting that this result will somehow change.
>What? ICE and Homeland Security are federal programs.

I am quite aware of this.

>Cooperation with local authorities is great, but state authorities aren't the ones removing people from the country.

Sure. Imagine you are an officer of ICE. You sit in the nice office in the federal building in LA. How does your day go by? You deport people? Which people? They are not exactly lining up to your doors to get deported, are they? So you need to find them somehow, bring them to court, get a judgment and then find them again and remove them from the country. This is the police work and you are not equipped to do it. You don't have beat cops, you don't get information from various agencies illegals use (from schools to social services, all under state control despite spending federal money). You were supposed to get referrals from the local law enforcement. You are not getting any. You act on tips and bust 1000 people a quarter in a city, which likely has several million illegals.

>I don't know enough to say what states can do to demand funding through the court system, but it passed in the House.

If only passing the House had been enough to make a law...

> At some point, enforcement is required.

Sure, but then states would actually help enforcement instead of impeding it as they are doing now.
I don't know if US bank account numbers need to be kept secret.

Yeah, they kind of should be since the number is basically all that someone needs in order to print cheques that take money out of a given account. The US has a "pull" system instead of the more secure "push" system in Europe where giving out a bank account number is totally normal (and was back in the day before electronic banking too).

I've looked into creating a flame graph visualization for PostgreSQL EXPLAIN output before, but CTEs that are scanned multiple times complicate things a bit. That's because the first scan on a CTE node will cause the CTE query to be executed, while further scans will simply replay the cached result-set from the first execution.

I'm sure these problems can be overcome, but it's a bit more complicated than I had imagined when I tried to do it myself. I also suspected nested-loop-joins on CTEs could further complicate the flame graph construction.
You might as well have just said "How dare you disagree with my authority, you imbecile!"

But even the vox article does not dispute that IQ is not distributed equally across populations.

> Race differences in average IQ score. People who identify as black or Hispanic in the US and elsewhere on average obtain lower IQ scores than people who identify as white or Asian. That is simply a fact, and stating it plainly offers no support in itself for a biological interpretation of the difference.

The phrasing is funny "identify as black", ok, but they cannot dispute the facts.

Now, given that IQ is distributed in different ways, why, just why, should we interpret this fact: "there are fewer black people in STEM" as evidence of discrimination?
But they're just two free floating variables. You could set either of them to any amount of money. If the lowest natural wage paid without a minimum wage is $A then a UBI of $B will make everyone better off than any minimum wage less than or equal to $A + $B.
Ironic that the author didn't just get a decent washer-dryer. They exist, I own one, it wasn't expensive.
And the way to comply with the SEC is through client-side collection, not by MITM proxying. The minute your employees use a cell network instead of your corporate intranet, if you aren't collecting data off the phone itself, then you're no longer in compliance.
As a UK driver, I was taught to shift to neutral and apply the parking brake when stopped for long enough to do so.

The reasoning given by my driving instructor was that this secures the vehicle and makes things just a little more safe for everyone.

If I am stopped in traffic with my parking brake on and sometime lightly rear-ends me, my vehicle may not move at all. If my parking brake were not applied, the probability of my vehicle not moving at all drops significantly.

If I am rear-ended without the parking brake applied such that my vehicle rear-ends someone in-front of me, I am partially responsible for the damage caused ahead due to my failure to secure my vehicle.

This is only tangentially related to taking my foot of the clutch. I depress the clutch in order to apply the parking brake correctly. Once the parking brake is applied, I simply have no need to continue to depress the clutch.

It takes me very little time to apply the parking brake and then release it and so I tend to do so when stopping for more than a second or two.
lol, you found your domain on impossibility, didn't you.
The quote I pulled was the guy complaining about real estate agents who do nothing but facilitate ownership transfers. The peanuts/shellfish trade is precisely analogous.
Trying to think if this would work for me. I don't live there and haven't commuted that type of distance regular enough to warrant this type of expense. But, on trips, I tend to stay alert enough to know what's going on regardless of how hard to try to sleep. I tend to try to drive on trips because I don't trust other people driving. They mention wanting autonomous buses to run that route, but I just got my class B CDL and could see myself making this run every weekend as a job which would be cool.
Think twice about using Walnut. Their business model is selling your financial details to the highest bidder. They claim it's as innocuous as wealthy users being contacted about investment opportunities, but I wouldn't take their word for it.

Far better to use a vanilla expense manager. Maybe it takes an extra second to enter the details of the transaction but at least your data never leaves your device. That's the way it should be.

Great comment.

But it doesn't always hold in small markets or markets with little variety. Consider towns where there are only a few important employers.

I still agree that imposing the costs on the employers is arbitrary.
Or not necessarily that there isn't any noble intention in him, of course there is some. But, the pressure of keeping funding will always color their presentations, for example, to make them leave out other competing groups and ideas.
That's not true. At the time, we gave a serious thought of supporting the platform. A quick inspection of Islandwood, however, was enough to convince us otherwise—be it the frameworks that were missing, hilariously bad implementations of those that were there, dubious choices of the ObjC runtime, the fact that only handful of people from Microsoft actually worked on it, etc. It was an immensely embarrassing project, to be honest. Providing a clean–room implementation of such a mature ecosystem is no small task, of course, but what Microsoft presented was just embarrassing.
When I look back at the spectacular mobile OS implosions of that era I feel like Windows Phone deserved to die, but Palm's WebOS I'm still a bit sad about.

"As long as the other application is Firefox, Safari, IE11/Edge, or Opera, then it probably has a HSTS preload list that is at least in part generated from the Chrome one."

You mean if everyone teams up and makes their case politically, we'll all make far more, in real terms? So teaming up increases overall productivity? (Not impossible but would need more evidence than teaming up increasing bargaining power, though of course the latter needs evidence, too as a junior unionized worker doesn't have bargaining power against senior workers whom union arrangements incidentally tend to benefit.)
The problem is less with the qualities of the job and more with the pay of the job.

It's poverty wages and exploitative. It's not profiting off these people, it's profiteering off of them.

There's a strong inverse correlation between how much you make and how much you borrow. People who are making enough to cover their daily expenses don't need to borrow, by definition, and so they tend to be underrepresented in loan origination statistics. Similarly, people who are making very little money tend to need cash, which makes them more likely to seek out loans, because the very product a loan is selling is cash (today, in exchange for more cash tomorrow).

While its true that during the housing bubble, people who took out loans included people from all different slices of the income distribution, the borrowers were disproportionately drawn from poorer income segments. That's why they called it a "subprime" crisis; the percentage of the mortgage market lent to people who wouldn't otherwise qualify for prime loans was much higher than normal, and predictably, these loans ended up defaulting at a higher rate.

Indeed. That gets us part of the way there.
It can't be any worse than the havoc wrought by younger drivers texting/talking on their cellphones while driving. I've been rear-ended twice in the last 7 years by teens on cellphones. Both drivers were utterly oblivious to the stopped traffic in front of them.
It's not "dead", but our brains have now been trained to get its neurotransmitters differently. We used to feel the fulfillment of achieving something, learning, or friendly comfort through human interaction. Now, people can get it via screens which takes less effort both physically and psychologically (having to get over little awkwardness). We are programmed to gather the most with the least effort, so naturally people end up preferring the phone.

This is actually bad, because we are slowly losing our face-to-face interaction skills and become worse at reading expressions/reactions.

People say that it's no different from the 80's and show a photo of people reading newspapers on a bus, but I've yet to see photos of people reading them on their 1st dates.

> Leasing space in subway stations to shops might detract from the “historic” character of the US’s barbarous public transit systems, but the revenues could fund needed improvements, such as ventilation, without the need for debt or higher passenger fares.

All the public transit systems I've rode in Europe and Asia have lots of infrastructure (especially stores) built into their train stations. I found them to be a welcome convenience rather than a distraction - and the many travelers in the stores indicates that others did too.

If private shops in the subway is the price we pay for efficient public transit, then please, may I have some more?
"Quality of life" improvements would be better. People can motivate themselves if it improves their quality of life. We do daily maintenance, life itself is mostly maintenance, but you can make it worthwhile, and sometimes fun, by focusing that on improving your quality of life and time.

Hah, do you happen to be expecting the need for junior developers in the coming year? ;)

And an actual question: when hiring for [junior] web development roles, would you for example take into account knowledge of non-web languages like, say, 6502 assembly & C++?

I'm curious as in the coming year I'll be graduating and on the hunt. Although I consider myself proficient in JavaScript (and Python to a much greater extent) my hobby interests lie more in microcontrollers, "retro" programming, and just general electronics. Would that sort of background be a boon in your opinion, or would you prefer a candidate with more strength in web technologies? (though by golly I swear I will one day get my homebrew computer connected to the World Wide Web!)

If the choice is between a company that inconveniences its own users for profit -- which I think the antitrust case against Microsoft proves that it was -- and a company that inconveniences other companies' users (e.g. Google inconveniencing Windows Phone users), I far prefer the latter. At least if the inconvenience constitutes not supporting a competitor's protocol.

Microsoft isn't paying Google to please its users, so I don't see how MS can reasonably expect Google to do so. They are competing, for-profit companies. Google isn't responsible for the Windows Phone platform, Microsoft is.
