Where I can see your site potentially adding value is when you're helping startups gain traffic and ultimately customers. The more you can funnel the right types of people to the startups so they can start gaining traction would be useful. Any content that helps validate that a startup is legit will also be great.
But, any indexing system you create won't work with the rec* tools. For example, `recsel` will not be any faster on large files.

Not sure if they have indexing on the roadmap, but it does make sense to me for people that have adopted it and are starting to get bigger databases.

Of course, you could argue that when the files get too big, it's time to switch to a different solution.

It seems that's kind of a natural tension in projects. Do you grow the scope to accommodate existing users with growing use cases? Or, do you draw the line in the sand and have people move on to a different solution?
ah - got it. Unfortunately expensive real estate is a 2nd order effect of flexible labor and capital.
I like the idea of basic income but I confess that my ideal of a basic income recipient is someone akin to the 19th-century amateur scientist subsisting on a private income whilst making original contributions to human knowledge, and, as a side effect, to society.

Whereas the reality of people receiving free money might be somewhat different. There's the drip, drip welfare payments of just enough money to survive without being motivated to find a job. Then there's the fallout, family break-up and chaos that occur in the wake of a lottery win. Both morally questionable.

Or perhaps there might be a settling down period of people acting irresponsibly followed by a recognition that engagement with the problems of civilisation and survival doesn't end because one has food, shelter and internet. There are novels to write, structures to design, problems to solve and of course there's science to be done. Work is more fun than 'fun'. Pick something worthy of your talents or start the slide into mental disorder and addiction.

Whatever the truth it almost goes without saying that a study alone cannot sort these issues out. Perhaps it can help. But in science experiment is insufficient there has to be theory to go with. (This is a major reason why so few studies in medicine and psychology are reproducible. I assume in sociology too.) What makes it more difficult in this case is there are moral components which can't be assessed empirically, only by conjecture and criticism.

Yesterday's .IO TLD DNS Issues and a Day Without Cloudflare
This is the perfect place to "confess" to something that happened to me, fresh out of college, at my first full time real job at IBM... 1996ish

I got paid for 2 weeks on my first pay check but I was technically on the job for 3 days. I thought about it, biggest paycheck I had ever had in my entire life at that point, and I decided to do the honest thing and tell my manager. He thanked me, made some calls, did whatever he did and 2 or 3 days later just told me to keep the money and not tell anyone. The effort to "fix" the problem was worth more than the problem.

So take that IBM, I got 11 days free pay from you. Enjoy that Canada!

The C3 project, someone else mentioned, is a fascinating project on payroll. It's an odd problem space, it's complex, no denying it. I've built a lot of software and have a hard time comprehending how it could take a payroll cycle to calculate payroll, I believe that the guys that worked on it were all highly intelligent though. There is this odd desire to say "oh, I could do that better" It's also staggering to think that these companies and agencies are willing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars, re-implementing this highly complex business logic rather than somehow streamlining the payroll processes.. even with unions, it's just hard to comprehend it all.
Because this industry keeps going on and on about a shortage of competent developers?
Fossil is the server in this case, not SQLite.

It is fine to use SQLite as the local storage in the implementation of some custom server like Fossil, as there is a separate server (Fossil) that sits in between the client and the data. In fact, SQLite excels at this and usually works better than traditional client/server databases. The scenario you want to avoid is where the client attempts to access SQLite data directly across the network, with no intermediary server. The proverb is: "Always send your query to the data, not the data to the query."

It will work to access an SQLite database across a network filesystem. Just remember that the amount of information that flows between the SQL engine and the storage medium is much greater than the amount of information that flows between the SQL engine and the application. So if the storage is separated by from the application by a relatively slow network, you want to position that network on the low-bandwidth link to obtain the best performance. That means that the SQL engine needs to be on the same side of the network as the storage - hence a client/server database. If you use SQLite to access a network file, the SQL engine will be on the application side of the network and a lot more content will need to traverse the relatively slow network link.

And so, while SQLite will work in a client/server situation, you might be disappointed by the resulting network load and/or performance of the system.

In the case of Fossil, Fossil itself is the "client" for SQLite and it is on the same machine as the data, which is exactly what you want with SQLite. The client of the Fossil server might well be across a network, but that does not matter to SQLite.
You have a strange definition of rural.

Anyway, out here in the middle of nowhere, Uber, taxi and (high frequency) bus service are not economically viable. Low population means low numbers of fares means low suppliers means long delays for service means lower numbers of fares. All of which is made worse by distances.

Medium and large cities do have taxi service and public transport, but those are lower priority since everyone has a car.
If the government guarantees a basic income, you're really only guaranteed (at best) until the next election cycle. Just recently, seven years after its passing, the ACA was nearly reverted, which would have kicked millions of people off government-subsidized health insurance plans.
It's always interesting to work with geniuses, but I think..

Note. This document was prepared by the designers of Simon and Speck in order to address questions regarding the design rationale and analysis of the algorithms.
you can't put many bytes in bundles or else you run into problems. The correct approach is to just store the id or the minimum needed in order to restore the view, most of the info will either come from the server, a cache or a database..
Interesting, looks like there's no ethernet pinout on the headers. But there is a USB connector!

That's interesting, because if the crap hits the rotating blades and if the US has to sell even 10% of those assets the effects on the global economy are anything but obvious

Who can pay 10trillion dollars? What's the economical effect of such a big transaction? What if there's not enough liquidity in dollars for the purchaser? Would the US accept GBP/CNY/EUR?

* A notebook interface that lets you drag stuff around and view things side-by-side
* Query CSVs, JSON, and XLSX documents fully in-browser with Emscripten + SQLite
* Postgres, MySQL and BigQuery through a local connection bridge. Your data never touches a third party server.

It exemplifies and exacerbates all the worst aspects of the internet: clickbaiting, irrelevant oversharing, uninformed commentary, reactionary groupthink, mob harassment, inaccurate and deliberately misleading news, etc.
This just keeps getting more and more outlandish. I'm pretty sure you have to deliberately work at it, if you want to be this incompetent. Had they just had the entire IT staff play minesweeper, they might actually be better off than they are now.

I am not actually sure that I've seen a bigger display of ineptitude. I suspect there's going to be academic research papers published about this and studied for years to come. I'm not big on conspiracy theories, but I could understand someone believing this is deliberate incompetence. I'm not even sure I could fault them for believing that.
It does not have HDMI. Displays would typically be done with SPI breakout boards like from Sparkfun and Adafruit. You could also do a display via USB to VGA/HDMI.
The key is the amount each company should invest depends on it's situation. Some companies don't do a good job investing in their future, and are better off returning money to shareholders. (Look at companies that "invest" in corporate jets for example) Other companies are better at making good investments, and should invest all their profits and then some.
That sounds suspiciously like something that could have easily been fixed in NumPy.

> Try playing your iTunes purchase on a non-Apple product and you're SOL

What are you talking about? Did iTunes add back DRM? Around 2009 or so Apple made all of iTunes DRM-free and were, I believe, the first major online music store to do so. It was a huge deal; Apple published an open letter from Jobs on their home page and everything.

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/07/technology/companies/07app...

"iTunes Plus refers to songs and some music videos* in high-quality AAC format that don't have Digital Rights Management (DRM).
All songs now for sale in the iTunes Store are iTunes Plus."

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201616

and, as of 2014, you could kill DRM on DRM-ed iTunes purchases made before 2009 https://www.wired.com/2014/03/kill-itunes-drm/

They aren't and they further shift the responsibility of dealing with credit agencies negligence onto the consumer.

Because it is not meant to "help you not work." It is meant to ensure a basic minimum whether you work or not. It is also not meant to "pay for a comfortable life." It is meant to prevent you from starving.

For the sake of argument, however, as you say, going part time is not an option for many people. For the lowest paid jobs, on the other hand, going full time is often not an option. The jobs at the bottom tend to be part time with no benefits and no guaranteed hours. These are the people who will be most benefited by a basic income. If they are additionally stuck in a hostile work environment, the basic income may give them enough cushion to quit the job rather than hanging on just so they don't starve. It may also give them enough money to take time off work and go to school in order to earn a slightly better income. And, if they are laid off through no fault of their own, it may allow them to eat until they can find another job.

> The irony of it is that this sort of a system was one of the few things Keynes and Friedman agreed should be part of public policy.

Milton Friedman did not say that this should be part of public policy, though his words are commonly interpreted very generously to imply that he did, by people who wish to demonstrate that this is a policy with "conservative support".

What Friedman actually said is that the cash value of all welfare and other support systems is greater than the in-kind value. That's a pretty narrow statement. In theory, that sounds like it's a statement of support, but it's really not. In practice, basically nobody is actually proposing doing away with all welfare, social security, government subsidies, etc., because it would be a political non-starter. Even if we scope this discussion to the context of the YC research experiment, that's plainly evident, because there's no stipulation that the participants abstain from all other forms of public assistance, as well as deduct the cash value of every other stipend and subsidy that they receive from the $1000 payment.

Comparing what Freidman wrote about to this proposal is like trying to discuss Adam Smith in the context of the political left, on the basis of the common term "liberal". Yes, there technically exists a frame of reference in which that's a meaningful comparison, but it's not a particularly useful or relevant frame of reference, and it does nothing but mislead and obfuscate the actual details of the underlying facts.

They might've grown above EU average since then, but they certainly got some catching up to do.

Real wages have increased since '07, yes, but that was also the lowest year in decades. The fact is, that it's barely above where it was 25 years ago:

And I don't see, how the reunification of Germany would've caused real wages in '07 to be lower than in '93. I'm no economist, but Hartz 4 and the Agenda 2010 in general seem like a more plausible cause to me.

A selector is an object -- so that is pure -- and its use is a convention of the messaging, and the message itself is one object, that is an instance of Class message.

What's fun is that every Smalltalk contained the tools to make their successors while still running themselves. In other words, we can modify pretty much anything in Smalltalk on the fly if we choose to dip into the "meta" parts of it, which are also running. In Smalltalk-72, a message send was just a "notify" to the receiver that there was a message, plus a reference to the whole message. The receiver did the actual work of looking at it, interpreting it, etc.

This is quite possible to make happen in the more modern Smalltalks, and would even be an interesting exercise for deep Smalltalkers.
Absolutely, and this is also the problem with every* other basic income study that's been conducted over the past few decades.

If you promise basic income for only 5 years, then I'm probably not going to quit my job and become an artist because I can't be unemployed for 5 years and expect to waltz back into a job. If you promise basic income "forever", then I'm far more likely to retire at 30 and plan to never work again.

* I believe this is the case, correct me if there are any I missed
You and I have different meanings for the word, efficiency.

My definition: the most efficient has the least wasted effort and the maximum productivity.

I do not think having individuals & classes going off and suing everyone they can, every company buying piles of insurance against these suits (because how could they reasonably guarantee perfect privacy?) and having insurance providers coming to evaluate each institution...

This is only legally efficient, in that it requires the least amount of nuance in law.

There's a reason we have public infrastructure and services, and it is for efficiency.
The effective tax rate an individual would face depends on how much income an individual derives from other sources during this time in addition to the basic income, along with their household demographics (number of children, marriage situation).

By itself with no other income sources the individual would fall below the US federal poverty level[0] by $60 and would likely qualify for some Earned Income Credits[1] as well as subsidized health care.

Adding children or a spouse (especially a working one) will crank the tax rate up or down.

Then there is an entire universe of tax complexity having to do with credits and penalties an individual or family might face.

Ah, thanks! I thought they were talking about freezing it. The only fraud alert I know of was what was offered to me after the OPM hack. Instead, I just opted to freeze my accounts and they've been frozen ever since.
I think the logic during the trials was that even if disobeying orders meant punishment such as torture or death, that was preferable to committing the crimes for which they were standing trial.

As in, your potential death or suffering at the hands of your superiors is also not a credible defence for what you did.

That obviously makes a lot more sense in the context of war crimes and crimes against humanity though.
Wasn't talking about financial trajectory.
Found the answer to my sampling question: "As described above, we will select areas for the study by taking a stratified random sample of Census tracts in large regions within the two states where median household income does not exceed the area median income. After sampling tracts, we will randomly select addresses within tracts from USPS DSF (a sampling frame of all addresses). We will screen selected addresses for eligibility, ultimately enrolling no more than one percent of individuals within a Census tract. We may use available administrative data eliminate as many ineligible households from the sampling frame as possible to cut down on recruitment and enrollment costs, but we are examining the reliability of this data during the pilot. We are contracting with a survey research firm with extensive experience fielding national studies to assist with sampling, manage recruitment, and conduct in- person enrollment and baseline surveys."

To my thinking it would have been interesting to study the possible inflation effects (treat the isolated community as representative for the whole country) but I'm sure there is a good reason/past research for structuring the sample this way.
Whoa! That's nearly $20 a month, if you're past the free tier, which you will be if you're not already. Edit that's t1.micro, t2 is $13.
It is definitely not sold at a loss. No maximum to the order quantity, just lead time if it is more than inventory.
I second all your actions, it's something I do myself and your comment of treating people like people as opposed to money bags is a philosophy I hold dearly.
Someone there has some kind of vision, doesn't mean it's a good one but there was a definite attempt to shove most MBP customers into using iPad Pro and the Mac Pro line probably only survived by a very slim margin.

It's pretty obvious the iMac Pro was supposed to replace the Mac Pro lineup (despite having all the same problems) then at the last minute they decided to start working on a New New Mac Pro.

Not sure who has this vision if it's Tim, Ive or someone else but whoever it is they don't respect the idea of an actual computer like Jobs did. From what has been reported Cook doesn't even use a laptop anymore.
being time limited it gives you an actual hard value, so it becomes negotiable. I wonder if anyone will instead just use that to negotiate some credit at a favorable rate (say, 50k for those 60k) and actually start something greater than the expected subsistence.

Generally speaking, this would probably be the most efficient use of UBI: you trade it all away as soon as you exit college and invest it in something. I can see whole branches of financial and life insurance services growing out of this market.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't UBI operate on the premise that it's replacing many of the existing social programs? For example, unconditional money rather than food/housing assistance. If the participants of the study also get access to these things, doesn't that severely limit the usefulness of this study?

Also, $1k/mo is pretty small. Are you just hoping to observe some behavioral changes at the margin with which to extrapolate?
