It's definitely not true in most sales positions, particularly the ones that are highly commissions-based.

We can, and we do. The fact is: the gains just aren't that large. If you want to improve student performance, the best place to spend the money isn't by raising teacher salaries.
>which more accurately should be called the bank-payments society... is a utopia where money cannot leave – or even exist – outside the banking system, but can only be transferred from bank to bank

Wow. That is a great point that, honestly, never even crossed my mind. When you think about it from this perspective it becomes rather unsettling. I have, and still do I suppose, loved the idea of a cashless society because of its convenience, but this makes me feel very conflicted now. What an insane idea actually ...
From time to time there returns upon the cautious thinker, the conclusion that, considered simply as a question of probabilities, it is decidedly unlikely that his views upon any debatable topic are correct.

Here are thousands around me holding on this or that point opinions differing from mine—wholly in most cases; partially in the rest. Each is as confident as I am of the truth of his convictions. Many of them are possessed of great intelligence; and, rank myself high as I may, I must admit that some are my equals—perhaps my superiors. Yet, while every one of us is sure he is right, unquestionably most of us are wrong. Why should not I be among the mistaken? True, I cannot realize the likelihood that I am so. But this proves nothing; for though the majority of us are necessarily in error, we all labor under the inability to think we are in error. Is it not then foolish thus to trust myself?

When I look back into the past, I find nations, sects, philosophers, cherishing beliefs in science, morals, politics, and religion, which we decisively reject. Yet they held them with a faith quite as strong as ours; nay—stronger, if their intolerance of dissent is any criterion. Of what little worth, therefore, seems this strength of my conviction that I am right? A like warrant has been felt by men all the world through; and, in nine cases out of ten, has proved a delusive warrant. Is it not then absurd in me to put so much faith in my judgments?

It is happening. Here in Germany, you often will find at least one or two charging spots at malls, and a lot of supermarkets have set up charging spots too - as soon as they are regularly occupied, more can be added easily. Also, about 50% of all car owners could addd electricity to their garage or parking lot without a large investment. Some cities are experimenting with adding plugs to street lights.
Certainly some of PETA's donors are thrilled. This was PETA testing the legal waters for the acceptance of broader animal rights and how far that extends at this point in time culturally (laws eventually tend to shift with cultural changes). They will continue to do this sort of thing perpetually for that reason. Given the radical, extremely broad cultural change in just the last ~20-30 years toward animal welfare, it's almost guaranteed PETA will land a victory in a case like this in just another few decades.

I imagine many large projects start out as small experimental ones. Once they get validated you light a fire under them (with money) and expand the team. IIRC Docker started out as a 2 man team - I'd imagine they had a doubling or a tripling that was well justified after that.

>this psychology PHD researcher

That's quite an understatement for (the quite famous?) Dan Ariely:

>Dan Ariely (Hebrew: דן אריאלי‎‎; born April 29, 1967) is the James B. Duke Professor of Psychology and Behavioral Economics at Duke University (source: Wikipedia)

As an economist it feels like an insult to call him a "psychology PHD researcher"
Reddit is very geared towards short-term discussion. Top comments on a post are usually from the first couple of hours and posts last less than a day. For long-term discussion traditional forums with chronological posts and threads that get re-bumped to the top are still king.
Sales also has a different culture than development. Sales really is brutal and soul wrenching in a completely different way than software is (yeah, I've been on both sides, less on sales part).

The measurability of money has two sides - one is that you can argue for a commission, the other is that it's very easy to point to numbers that say you didn't really sell anything this month.

In sw dev, if you're mildly competent, you can coast for many months, if not years.

So, essentially it comes down to different risk/reward profiles . Which of course selects for the right kind of people and the cycle feeds itself.

i don't get this at all. we need music that is about who we are now, and what new sounds we can make and imply and expect and imagine. technology has changed that just like the modern violin bow did for romantic era violinists, computers did for Varese, Antheil, and Percy Grainger, autotune did for Cher, hammond b3 did for jazz, trains did for Honnegger, race riots and loopers did for Strve Reich and on and on... we are at a different launch pad with ML, one that might allow us to shift the focus of our musical labor and practice, one that might allow more diversity in just who gets to make music (hopefully more people who would not otherwise afford to, for one)and more openness in what is called music, in what we consider to be legit instruments. why can't we use all sounds more accessibly like instruments? Why can't we hear how children might hear (usually because they have not yet learned technique) -perhaps our whole concept of what sound and music actually means could change... but first we have to wear ourselves out with all the Bach/Taylor Swift/Ligeti hybrids until we see how shallow that feels to be trapped in that space. Then, a new concept will emerge. I think it's machine learning that might actually get us there- to the end of justified by labor where the real art is. I think we should face the fear we seem to have that we might not actually have ideas--- that's where the art is. Not in a Miles Davis/Mozart hybrid.
I guess probably just fundamentally different experiences. We couldn’t have afforded to put any more time into optimizing for mobile, but most users I talked to didn’t even care to look at the mobile site before insisting they couldn’t use it unless it was an app. No need for push notifications, camera, anything like that—heck we even put in the iOS add to home screen stuff to try to get them to see it as more “app” like—but still, they just insisted an app straight from the App Store was necessary.
Like the site, but the example seems off.

It talks about 'bankofamerica.com.fraud.ru' in the first paragraph, but then discusses how 'fraud.ph' (why did we change TLDs? This should stick to ru or the above should be changed to ph) gets a wildcard cert for '* .com.fraud.com' (we changed TLDs again, to com this time. I assume we're talking about 'fraud.ph' getting a cert for * .com.fraud.ph - or .. we stick with ru)

I don't mean to start a flame war here, but when you say:

People don’t complain when you say: “A lot of the fastest marathon runners are from Kenia”. People will complain if you use that fact to justify an imbalance in your workforce: “Well, it’s obvious that we hire only people from Kenia since marathons show they are much faster!”

This is precisely the point. If objectively they are better, why is it discrimination to only hire them? Definitely you give everyone the opportunity to work for you, but if a singular group always performs better, is it really your fault? And if society did determine that it was your fault, how long could that go on for? Forever? How long can that charade last? Hasn't a Darwinian economy (capitalism) done the best ever for man kind (massively raised standards of living over the last 200 years).

While the content of the book is one interesting aspect, the way it was created and is being disseminated is also fascinating. It was a collective effort of econ professors from around the world, who all teach a localized version of the materials. They hired a company from south africa, to develop an open publishing platform. The goal is to turn markdown content into a number of outputs, ranging from a Oxford University Press textbook to a responsive static web site. Most of the tools are open source and all of the core content is on github. (Disclosure: I provided some input to the CORE leadership when they were starting to think about an open platform).

I don't think there is any «neutral» way to talk about economics. At the lowest level, how you model the human behavior is not neutral : if you think of humans as rational beings trying to maximize their well-being, you'll talk about price, market and competition : you're describing the world in the classical / liberal point of view. On the other hand, if you describe them as social creatures under the influence of social forces, you'll talk about wage slavery, alienation and class conflict and you'll see the world in a socialist point of view.

Both aspect are interesting to learn about but none of them is neutral and they both come with a bunch a ideology. Even if the first usually hides it, pretending to be a neutral and rigorous analysis of the world. Introduction to Economic Analysis is clearly in this category.
> Governments do however have one source of leverage over crypto networks: exchanges in which users trade fiat currency for crypto.

Not really:

- Mining could be considered as a way of exchanging fiat to currency.
Rare Earth mining can be done safely, it's just China doesn't want to do so. Ultimately the world has to solve global problems, local or national problems have to be left up to individual countries to sort out.

"POSIX I/O is simply not what HPC needs." but it's ok for almost any other use case and "There are many ways to move beyond the constraints imposed by POSIX I/O without rewriting applications, and this is an area of active research in both industry and academia." The problem is the lack of a standard solution yet.

The post does a good job at explaining why HPC doesn't need the strong guarantees provided by POSIX I/O and why they slow down those kind of applications. They are perfectly fine and desirable for most workloads on single user workstations, such as web development (save a file in the editor and the compiler gets its bytes exactly as you wrote them.)
> If the math gets thrown out for ideological reasons, then economics will become the next sociology.

I've got bad news for you buddy....

Economics has been nothing more than a pseudoscience for the past few decades, driven by political pandering.
If you assume competitive markets are "simpler" than uncompetitive markets this is certainly true. However it is questionable to me that this would actually be the case.

Rather the advantage of the traditional approach to economics isn't that competitive markets are simpler but that the axiomatic framework which is built on them can be generalized in a mathematically rigorous way to describe most kinds of uncompetitive markets. In order to provide real intellectual (rather than political) competition a different way of teaching economics would need to start with axioms of uncompetitive markets and deform them to also describe competitive markets. That doesn't seem to be happening in this book, however.

> A well built technology solution can sell it self in many scenarios. If we didn't have sales people, we could still build a product and push it into the market.

I don't how much sales experience you have, at either the management level or the hands-on sales level, but products almost never sell themselves. You're better off changing that to never sell themselves, because of how rare the examples of it are.

It's practically universally agreed that most companies love to squeeze whatever angles they can for another dollar of profit, particularly around employee costs. So why does sales persevere in such a big way across all companies? They're not doing it for fun, they're not doing it because their products sell themselves, they're not doing it to waste large amounts of money. They do it because they have to, all of them; basically every single company on earth has to sell.
> If you don't trust your phone's hardware or software, switch phones.

Much easier said than done. If the iPhone's hardware can't be trusted, which other phone can be? In such a situation using something like this actually seems to be the easy route towards hardware security against interception.

AWS's large clients make up the majority of the AWS business, as is typical in a business like that. AWS has a dedicated sales team that manages those customers.

Here's how that works in concept, for example:

Microsoft didn't hand-sell every individual copy of Windows 95 at every individual retail location. They did sell, big time, at the macro level however, which made the micro sales possible. That's how AWS works, Amazon captures the macro, the micro takes care of itself for the most part. If you're AWS and you capture dozens of impressive start-ups and enterprise players, the headlines and blog posts that are written as a consequence will micro sell as a consequence to countless smaller businesses for you. Not to mention, Amazon simultaneously pushes AWS at small businesses in numerous subtle ways, including on their site (which of course happens to be a giant advertising platform that reaches every business owner in the US).
Don't you presume that "free market" is a term pushed mainly for propaganda reasons? It seems likely to me that the term is promoted specifically to promote anti-regulation politics.

Think about it: if we're accepting the need for regulations, aren't we just talking about "market" rather than "free market"? The basic nature of "market" on its own already captures the idea that people are coming together and engaging in some sort of voluntary trade and competition etc.

All the good stuff we care about is present in just "market" and the "free" part is the propaganda term.

This feels like an article lamenting a missed opportunity to access the "high-life" (as if cocktail parties and shallow friendships based on how much you can raise are the high-life) when the reality was The Switch was a company whose revenues hadn't achieved the meteoric success that the founders/author believed all while taking a horrible toll on the family of the CEO and others.

The author writes:

>he recommended that the judge take the other bid, saying Bill's was too late, too complex, and not presented on the official forms.

Are you kidding me? These people wanted to bid on a company that was currently bankrupt but couldn't be bothered to even present the bid in the appropriate format?

The author paints the CEO/her husband as someone who never takes no for an answer as if that is a great personality trait.

>Earlier, Bill had taken the stand to testify that LKCM's bid severely undervalued the company, and argued, as others had, that LKCM had planned the bankruptcy all along. "What evidence do you have?" countered LKCM's attorney. "Well," Bill said with a laugh, "all the testimony we've heard here in court."

Given the outcome of the judge's decision I get the feeling that "silly things" like filling in the appropriate documents or presenting sound evidence for your arguments aren't really the style of someone who doesn't take no for an answer.

This whole article reads like the lamentation of a bicycle rider who celebrated the victory too early only to find themselves well down the order.

I'm unconvinced. I have read a ton of anecdotes and 2nd-hand accounts about this, but I've never seen any experiment or any piece of hard proof that yelp or its representatives hold your rating over your head if you don't sign up for advertising. It seems like an easy scenario to test out.

I'm totally open to being convinced, but I'm skeptical right now that they are in fact that shady. I'm more inclined to believe that it's a placebo effect from suspicious people suddenly paying more attention to ratings after a sales call, and also attributing any negative dip in rating to the phone call they recently had. There are also third-party groups who call claiming to be able to list your business higher or rate it better, and I'm suspicious that some people confound these callers as yelp representatives.

And linked from elsewhere in the thread: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-yelp-ratings-20140905-... -- it just seems like with no scientific study backing the claims and case after case being lost, I think the onus of proof is on the people accusing yelp of these threats.
