NTSB: 'operational limitations' played major rule in Tesla autopilot crash
Makes my blood boil reading this, especially how poor republicans who have the most to gain through tax reform are consistently voting against their interest.
Once, while interviewing for a Program Manager position, I was asked what the airspeed velocity of a swallow was. Being a child of the 90s I was familiar with Monty Pythin and quickly responded with "do you mean an African or a European swallow?"

The interviewers chuckled and proceeded onto a more relevant, and technical, question. I often wonder if that one answer is what landed me the position.
This sounds related to unintentional blindness, which is sometimes a result of having some serious brain related issue, such as a stroke.

"migraine flash" might be "potential serious brain issue", I would pay close attention if you've got low/high blood pressures, abnormal blood, obese/anorexic.

Zoho Mail? Don't even get me started … We had so many laughable problems with that service. Like being unable to remove a user account because the whole management UI was just plain broken. We tried removing the account for I don't know how many months. When I let them know about the issue I got a response asking for a scan of the CEO's ID card. Finally they fixed it but then the login broke. When I tried logging in to the management UI, all I got was a redirect back to the login screen. Hell I could go on. Moved everything off to AWS WorkMail and learned my lesson.
Oh no, I meant teachers in general, i.e. the ones who teach. I guess broadly there's direct and indirect value adders, each group needs the other.
I don't find it difficult to be a casual user. I've disabled all email and notifications from them. I look at it maybe once every 2 weeks. There's nothing really ever on it aside from a band mentioning they're touring again. All the other stuff is just noise. Photos of babies, photos of people at landmarks, shared news articles and outrageous comments.

That's why I only look every couple weeks, though. There's nothing worth looking at on the site. I probably should delete it, to be honest. I never post and I rarely find something worth looking at.
Also a lot of those cars under different badges share a huge array of common parts. Take a look at the Seat Alhambra[0] and Vokswagen Sharan[1]. They're practically identical. Really only the radiator grills and lights clusters are varied to suit the brand identity. Some of the town cars are basically the same vehicle tweaked across 3 or 4 badges.

I don't understand the people that find peace only after deleting the whole app from their phones.

I've had a FB account since inception and it has loads of people in it. Yet I probably look at facebook a maximum of maybe 10 times a year because I'm able to mentally compartmentalize the people there into groups of "important" and "not important"

> Should we teach both evolution and intelligent design for the sake of neutrality ?

Since both of them are influential in society, I think it's appropriate to address both of them. My high school biology teacher did a short session on intelligent design before proceeding with Lamarckism, Darwinism, Mendelian genetics and so on. Of course we mostly just mocked biblical literalism, which I think is not the intention of those who want intelligent design taught in schools, but we did talk about it.
Unions are a counter-balance to corporate power which helps to preserve the power of labor. That unions have some negatives does not mean we should not have them.

That's also how their border guard works.
By making the cars different, they can make them better fitted for electric cars. IE, Teslas put their batteries in the bottom frame. Will VW put them in the trunk and engine bay? how will that change the driving characteristics with the weight changes from the gas model. Will all wheel wells become larger, to handle electric motors for some of the options?
While I've digested with some heavy skepticism, I always was lead to believe it was for more altruistic reasons. Future profit was not his motivation, insomuch as increased competition and proliferation of electric vehicles into the marketplace. Leading to the an end of fossil fuels in vehicles.

Ultimately, both statements can be true. Increase proliferation while generating multiple revenue streams off of Tesla R&D.
Replacing one teacher in the bottom 5% with an average one got the student $250k more over their lifetime. So the average teacher is generating around $135,000 more than the poor teacher.

And equating teachers to engineers makes no sense, I've met dozens of people in some engineering school to make money.
I think a lot of new companies are going to be burned by this eventually.

Every time Facebook turns up the notification rate, they see more engagement. Every time they encourage Boosting a post, they make more money. And then later, when they can't link cause and effect, people like you and me and OP give up on the site completely.

Similarly, sites that A/B test and adjust features and "improve" their design constantly pay a real price - their users feel like guinea pigs and can't ever learn to use the product fluidly. But a .1% conversion boost is measurable now, while a slow bleed of users who want reliability can't be proven.

At a certain point trading goodwill for bigger numbers actually does become a problem, and I think we're getting there.
I agree. As someone who bakes bread frequently there are many recipes that don't require anything beyond ingredients , a bowl, and oven and some trays.

However, if you're really doing some serious dough, or just want to branch out. A kitchenaid mixer makes it way easier to get windowpain, and if you're all about the yeast, a food thermometer can be good.

It's not necessarily training and methods.

I love it! This is the part of the 90s I want back (not the dial-up)
At one time, I lost the plot. On my way back, and as an essential part of my recovery, I lost the ability to believe the lies I told myself to temporarily feel better about the crappy situation I was in.

If your god is not an actual flesh-and-blood person, it is you projecting yourself onto an inanimate object or intangible idea. I am not certain how it helps to do that sort of ventriloquism act, but apparently it does for some people. If you are that sort of person, a 12-step program might work for you. But I don't think it has ever been proven to work better than any other type of addiction recovery program, and the few studies that have been done generally support that hypothesis.

I am not a psychologist, but I don't think it is healthy to form intentional communities around a single commonality that is regarded by the group to be a critical and unrepairable flaw, and cement them together with quasi-religious traditions and proselytizing. But everyone is free to address their own problems in whatever manner they see fit. Veterans of 12-step programs will be certain to tell you that it worked for them, because that is the 12th step. They will not tell you that it is not based on evidence, only that it worked for the people that it worked for. It doesn't really matter, if you can make some new friends there.

You can deceive yourself into believing that your self-deception is not self-deception. You can also beat yourself at chess. What is the point?
When the notion of a union was proposed to the management at Fierra, the owners spread the word that if the workers began forming one, everyone would be immediately fired and replaced.

GM maybe. Mercedes definitely not. Unlike almost all automakers, Mercedes has consistently embraced change. Their entire premise is to build a car that is 10 years into the future, and generally speaking they do it. Sometimes they mispredict the future, but they have never been afraid to correct course. A different type of drivetrain doesn't mean starting from scratch. It's a major component, but it would be foolish to think they can't be taken seriously.

Not all people vote through an economic lens. Many othet lenses exist. Religion is just one of them. You could replace religion with gun rights. Or states rights. Same story.

I would guess for most people, no one party matches all their wants. So they need to prioritize.

The biggest lie is this nonsense about "double taxation," ie taxing money that's already been taxed is somehow unfair. So stupid.

Capital gains tax shouldn't exist. It should all be one income tax. You can carve out discounts or exemptions for things like sale of PPOR, sale of family business up to a certain point, if you want.

Let's distinguish the epistemic from the instrumental. Epistemically, truths can't oppose each other. But instrumentally, different tools can have different strengths. For example, merge sort is simple, fast and stable but not in-place, while heapsort is simple, fast and in-place but not stable. Between them lies the deep unsolved problem of designing a simple, fast, stable and in-place sorting algorithm. That's exactly like the dichotomies described in the post: two kinds of effective leaders, two kinds of organizations, etc.

There are many people making over $200,000/yr. With 20 years of investing $150,000 of that, it's incredibly easy to have over $6.5 million.

I don't see why it can't be a two-pronged approach with both higher income taxes and wealth taxes. It's what was done in the 1950's, and there was still plenty of wealth then.
> Americans in the top 1 percent, and especially the top 0.1 percent, have seen their wealth and income multiply in recent decades as the rest of the country’s share of the economic pie shrank. Since 2000, a recent study found, the top 1 percent have made those gains almost entirely on income from capital, especially corporate stock—not on labor income. One reason may be the financial options of the wealthy: Business owners can lower their tax bills by paying themselves in dividends rather than in salary, for example.

I've written a few times about how the different tax rates on income, vs dividends vs interest income vs capital gains, and even business vs personal tax rates all work together to ensure the 1% come out ahead of the average income earning individual.

I think I was 25 when I incorporated my first corporation, not because I was a startup founder, but to reduce my taxes. I'll bet if you look around at the most wealthy people you know, almost all will have their own corporation or two.

I mean, just the fact that people pay taxes and then expense out of after tax money and corporations pay expenses and then tax on whats left should be enough to illustrate how corporations keep the rich ahead of the salaried population.

It can get worse as corporations can change their tax year. This means if you are someone who gets a large bonus at the end of the calendar year you can shelter the tax on it for an entire year. So you can have someone who earns a $100,000 salary and gets a $500,000 bonus on December 31st. The bonus goes into the corporation and has a full year until November 30th before the tax is due. If you invest the bonus and earn 20% by next November you have earned enough money back to cover the corporate taxes due vs the salaried employee who pays the full 40ish% tax rate on the $500,000 bonus. Now, you'll have to eventually pay dividends to take the money out of the company but I think I've shown enough to prove just how far ahead the person with the corporation comes out ahead of the average person.

Until the tax law changes, smart people have corporations, the 99% don't.

It's not the progressive tax structure that's the problem, it's the fact that cap gains are taxed at a much lower rate than other forms of income.
Yeah he understands value networks and disruptive innovation. Daimler needs to start looking like Tesla - no dealerships, big investments in batteries, cheap solar, in order to compete with Tesla. Especially since the article says they need to have smaller margins on the EVs.
That's why it's not simple - you've got lots of things open to debate there - who is skilled or unskilled, who is a business, who is a 'larger' entity, who is the expert. That's why it's more complicated than just saying 'yes' with an emphatic full stop.

Additionally, you could literally ask anyone who worked at Yelp. I have. Sure not everyone there has seen every bit of code that powers their service, or every business process, but if they were systemically encouraging mobster-like business tactics, someone would have heard about it. I never did. I heard a lot of engineers and sales people laughing about the fact that people thought they did.

The reality is that its likely explainable through a combination of disgruntled business owners and overzealous/evil salespeople who make threats they can't follow through on, just to get sales.

(Though, some of the admin panels there have (or had, when I was there) a easy to use "Make user Yelp Elite" button, but I'm sure you'd get caught :)
Hmm, interesting. Since `border-right` is shorthand, we're saying that `0` as a value is applied to `border-right-width`, `border-right-style`, and `border-right-color`. The `0` value can be applied to `width` but not to the other properties.

I don't see it that way. When you invest you risk the capital. You might get a return, you might not and therefore the taxation rules should reflect that. The situation as a worker is different. The only risk you take is that you might select a bad company.

That time period was one of great prosperity that won't be repeated. Market returns were higher; most of the low hanging fruit has been plucked, and you can expect ~5% in equities returns. Its going to take far more capital now to get the same returns your grandparents had, which is why you see capital chasing returns across the world.

"The leaders of Vanguard Group, overseers of some $4 trillion in client assets, have been advising investors to expect a typical 60 percent stocks/40 percent bonds portfolio to deliver two- to- three percentage points less in nominal annual returns than its long-term norm. (Since 1926, such an asset mix has returned better than 8.5 percent annualized.)"

"Other forecasts are even less generous. Research Affiliates, a quantitative and "smart beta" fund manager, projects that U.S. stocks might only offer one percent a year for the next decade, after inflation. This is based largely on the so-called Shiller P/E, a ratio of the S&P 500 index to its trailing ten-year average earnings, which is now above 29 and higher than any period aside from the run-up to the 1929 and 2000 market peaks."

"And with risk-free 10-year government debt yielding a skimpy 2.3 percent in the U.S. and far less elsewhere, all other financial assets have repriced for skimpier future returns as well."

Your original comment has nothing meaningful to discuss. You don't present your data or analysis thereof, so we cannot discuss that.

This is why our two-party political system needs to change. It's proven inadequate to reflect the people in a nuanced enough way.
To be honest, my memory is really hazy about this, but the problem is, how do you interpret the aggregate price in aggregate equilibrium, then? Is it what you would expect it to be?

I just did a quick calculation - based on your suggestion - with linear demand/supply curves and what I got as the aggregate price is a weird combination of the two prices. It's not any kind of (weighted) average of the two, as far I can tell. In particular, it seems to me that the aggregate price will differ if, for one of the markets, we change either demand curve or supply curve but keep their intersection at the same point. That's wildly counter-intuitive, I don't know why should aggregate price behave this way.

Maybe I am wrong, and you can make it work. If you do, write it up! It really should be in textbooks, it's embarrassing they don't discuss this case.

And this is a case of two (presumably) completely independent markets with linear curves. It gets much more hazier when you have a relationship between the two markets (for example, one is a substitute for the other).
