Very personally, I see it as contributing a small amount of a very non-scarce resource (bandwidth, disk space, computing power) so that I have greater control over the platform I'm using. I loved both Twitter and Medium, but the corporations that run them have different ideas about what they're for. I see web decentralised about letting the user choose their experience instead of having it enforced on them.
Because it's two sides to the same coin. The problem isn't which decision Facebook makes. It's that Facebook, like governments, should not be in charge of this.
The rich surely have influence in proportion to the total amount of wealth that they have. Wealth is unevenly distributed enough (a quick google says top 1% have control of 38% of wealth) for this to be a significant skewing factor away from an ideal market.

I feel obligated to point out that First Round's content marketing has literally made me hate them.

Their breathless hypey, smarmy tone yet content-free nature of their posts makes them come off as profoundly silly and unserious. They sound like something a Silcon Valley HBO writers room would reject as too cliched.

Given that they often make the front page of HN perhaps my opinion is an outlier, granted.

It wouldn't change a thing, at least not in any meaningful fashion. People want the latest whiz-bang thing and these devices are marketed to those who have the barest understanding of technology.
A little ironic: I tried to share this article on the #offbeat Slack channel at my work, but the automatic preview image Slack generated for it (from the top cover image of the article, which you can't really see most of, unless you view the image separately) is a (pretty NSFW) fake front-of-the-box for a "We-Vibe" IoT vibrator: "We can see how kinky you are". Not what I was planning to share with my coworkers. I'd recommend the author to change the cover image, or at least feature the whole image prominently front-and-center if that's really what they want to do, so people don't accidentally share it inappropriately like I did.

Good article though, and I definitely agree that these issues with IoT devices should be made more prominent.

> Rich people may take risks. Poor people must.

This seems more accurate and realistic about the source of the discrepancy:

Rich people have the luxury to choose which risks they take and make calculated endeavors, but are never forced to take a risk and have great ability to manage their total exposure to risk.

Poor people are inundated with being forced to take bad risks and manage the danger between them constantly, such that they can't properly gather resources to take on additional voluntary risks (even when they have an expected reward) because it poses too much systemic danger with the additional risk.

That said, once you count in drug sales, the poorest 10% of people I know have a higher per capita entrepreneurship rate than the richest 10%. So in practice, poor people are actually taking on business risk at a higher rate as well, though it's again motivated by necessity.

The biggest discrepancy is, of course, access to capital and explain the vast majority of the discrepancy in outcome.

Yes, it was a very big part of my decision when moving to London that I didn't need a Visa to work here, contrary to the country I was residing in before.

Yes it was a big part of my decision that I was free to change job, that I wasn't linked to an employer, that I didn't need to renew said visa it every X year, that my spouse could work with the same rights as me, etc.

Not GP, but I've also followed a ketogenic diet for a couple of years now. When I first started I learned a lot from Dr. Peter Attia and the videos he has on YouTube.

One example[1] goes through him talking about the self-experimentation he's done with the diet and the variations of it. From memory, it was pretty informative (albeit general) on the chemistry/biology surrounding it.

The UK was never in Schengen and will leave EFTA.
(EU national living in UK). I was ambivalent on working at the headquarters (here in Birmingham) or in remote, and actually started looking for a house here.

Thankfully I waited until after the referendum. The ensuing social, political, and economical confusion was convincing enough. I bought a house not far from my hometown, somewhere in southern Europe. I'll move there after some major renovation, some time next year.

I might be biased, but I realized in the few years I lived in the UK that the services, health care, and general quality of life are overall better down there than up here. I obviously have only anecdotal proof of that.

On a positive note, it has been very instructive so far to live in the country where this is happening, and especially in an area that voted in favor of leaving.
This is great when you're re-implementing Wolfenstein.

Not so much when you're doing exploratory computer science, or blue-sky prototyping. To build upon his analogy, scaffolding is most helpful when you have a reasonable knowledge of the shape of the building.

"It depends on the context" isn't exactly a shocking discovery however.

I love Carmack, love his presentation style, and when he talks from experience, I listen.
In war we regularly maim and kill teenagers, using bullets and explosives. This is entirely intentional and done to save our troops and our people and to win the conflict.

If it's necessary to win a fight that matters, and it works, it is okay.

See: allied bombing campaigns in WW2 wherein we intentionally roasted thousands of babies and grandmas.

The self-indulgent alternative is a recipe for extinction. And you can't have much influence over the world if you're not there.

If you're not brutal enough, you just end up handing the future to someone more brutal, which is itself a wrong. Just like it'd be wrong to let the Nazis take Europe because you didn't want to roast babies and grandmas.

The UK is not in Schengen now, and it would be perverse to try and join, or become associate members of, Schengen after Brexiting.

Being in the EFTA would mean continuing to obey EU legislation, continued freedom of movement and paying money into the pot, ie. everything the Brexit campaign was against.

So, no, those agreements will likely not remain in place. The EU wil not agree to give the UK all the benefits of EU membership without the costs.

There may be other benefits to Brexit, but it will not be the case that Brexit will be good because the UK will negotiate a deal that, of itself, is better than the current deal the UK gets.

Only if you live in a moral vacuum.

EDIT: Most of the moral decisions western society has taken about how we show act are on the principles of first doing no harm and respecting the rights of the individual. This ranges from medicine to the principle of innocent until proven guilty and using the legal standard of beyond reasonable doubt.

By torturing someone you are defying almost every moral decision societies have ever made.

EDIT AGAIN: Wow just wow. Heavy heavy downvoting for speaking against normalization of torture. Please explain yourselves?

Eisenhower was clearly tripping balls when he warned about the disastrous rise of misplaced power of the military-industrial complex.
Thank you for posting this. With all kinds of matter-of-fact comments confidently declaring the impossibility of feasible hyperloop implementations, a lot of those arguments turn out to hinge on random, idiosyncratic details that are not at all the dealbreakers they're made out to be.
I think the chances of a deal are about 70% and trending lower.

The only fudge that can work at the 11th hour is staying in the EU in all but name; there is no way the EU can agree to something non-disruptive quickly without risking it continuing on indefinitely, which means it needs to be almost identical to what went before. And I don't think the Tories can sell that to either the public or their own membership.

A mutually beneficial deal will never happen; the UK cannot come out of Brexit better than before. Any mutual benefit can only come after the UK has climbed out of a pit scary enough to put off any further risk of countries leaving.

If public opinion on Brexit changes, then it might be different. I don't see that happening yet though, and the risks all seem to be on the downside - painting the EU as intransigent and punishing.
What can you use Bitcoin for? What year are you from, 2012?
The inflation hypothesis is too important an issue for cosmology to be dismissed as an issue of the usage of terms defined in a single paragraph. No great harm comes from calling it a theory, and nothing of importance is settled by instead calling it a hypothesis or conjecture.

Nevertheless, the article was prompted by a spat between scientists over just that issue. What this article does, however, is to lift the curtain and give us a look at what the real issues are: it is a debate about whether inflation is failing in its bid to become established science, and whether it is time to give up on it, or at least look more earnestly for and at alternatives.

For someone who is not a scientist, but who is familiar with the history of science and the works of Popper and Kuhn, it might seem that the distinctions between conjecture, hypothesis and theory are both clear-cut and important, but the fact is that when science is done (as opposed to being written about afterwards), there is a good deal of uncertainty, and sometimes confusion, with many false starts, dead-ends and half-understood truths.
Elixir seems very similar to Clojure to me (the former being influenced by Clojure).
I sometimes buy hard copies of games simply because I dreamed of having a PlayStation or a gaming PC as a kid, but my parents couldn't afford either, so I never got the chance of collecting anything related to PC games. Unfortunately, most of them only come with a small piece of paper inside with a steam activation code written on it. I remember when games contained entire manuals in the box.

Making Tax Digital's aim is to massively simplify tax returns (including VAT returns) for both individuals and businesses. It's whole aim it reduce time it takes dealing with taxes and give a live overview of tax obligations rather than waiting until the end of the financial year (or longer) to find out what you owe.

I don't understand how any of that can be considered contentious especially as it's been pushed back to beyond April 2019 for roll out?
But note that those two are entirely different things.

CEP is for building extensions with HTML+JS+CSS. ExtendScript (an old JS dialect plus Adobe extensions) is for internal product scripting (e.g., building/manipulating the document model in InDesign).

You can bridge the two, of course, but there's no direct connection or even relation without explicit developer effort.

You're right of course. In the end, politics is all about power. With vindictiveness a big part of it -- a more powerful and venerable strategy than mere economic rationality.

Where power originates with people, manipulating the general opinion is the ultimate source of power. Ever heard of "bank runs"? It's like a self-fulfilling prophecy -- once you manage to scare enough people, you can shape reality. Healthy banks fall. Threads like "Should I leave the UK because of Brexit?" pop up.

What I'm saying is there is (as in, must necessarily be) very little implications of "Brexit", technically speaking. What will really happen is all about what people's emotions make it to be, which are in turn shaped by whose PR prevails.
Part of the problem is not that you would hide the truth, but that you would make up lies just to appease your interrogator.

You want the torture to stop; the torturer doesn't know when to stop. They'll keep hurting you until they think you've told them everything, even if you already have.

> The only reason they cannot put it to paper yet is they are waiting for reciprocacy from the EU. Once the EU agrees to provide UK in EU with exactly the same rights as the UK is offering them, it will go down in law.

You have it the wrong way around. The EU negotiation team proposed for all EU nationals (EU in the UK, and UK in the EU) to keep the same rights first, and the UK replied with a much worse deal.
I wouldn't say it's unwise, but there's definitely a decision to be made.

If I decide to let the disease progress to the point where I don't know my family members and am acting violently, how likely is it that a cure is going to be found that can reverse that damage? I don't think it's very likely and so I would probably choose to die before that point.
They don't need large standing forces ATM because that's handled by nation states who will defend everything within their borders. As for smaller forces, hasn't it been outsourced by now? Can't Apple or Amazon or Google just hire Blackwater, or whatever they call themselves these days?

Filecoin seems to be one solution...

To be honest I would be more interested in a solution where you get to host as much data on the network as you host on your machine, or something in proportion, at different levels of redundancy.

For example hosting a blogpost sqlite database file should be accessible to all hosts, since it will be never so big, but it can't be lost with a high enough level of redundancy.
the specific number varies between different people. i'd say <20g is enough to get everybody into ketosis. <50g is enough for some.
> as if torturing a person would still be okay if worked.

It's an interesting thought experiment in ethics, analogous to the Trolley Problem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trolley_problem).

Assume a nuclear bomb will be detonated in the city, killing and horribly injuring millions of innocent people. The individual who is responsible is known, with no doubt, and there exists some level of pain you can inflict upon him which will, without doubt, prevent the explosion.

What degree of pain is acceptable to inflict on that person?

Make him sit in the comfy chair?

Give him terrible squinty looks?

Give him a paper cut?

Paper cut with lemon juice?

...

If you choose not to take that action, are you responsible for or complicit in the deaths and injury to those people?

What if you were one of the co-conspirators, and having second thoughts, could compel the other individual to stop it?
Like all emotions, anger can a very useful tool and it is important to let it out sometimes. The belief that anger is unnecessary and needs to be curbed no matter what only leads to bottling it up and that is never good. Do not feel bad about feeling angry.

Personally I'm a bit scared of France and Germany what with recent terrorist attacks and mass immigration. Also these areas aren't cheap and Switzerland has a reputation of being pretty closed to outsiders. London obviously has terrorism problems also, but none of the places you mention come close to it in terms of global repute.
This is why it is better to look at long-term national data rather than selective studies (such as the one noted in the title) which fail to control for obvious discrepancies in their data which would contradict the click-bait headline. The populations that have the longest average lifespans seem to have a few things in common and carbs are one of those common factors.

Governments setting up agencies is not, per se, a good evidence of a problem. See: TSA.
I’m not editing my statement above, but after researching this I learned that I’ve been given the right advice but the wrong reason for it. A better explanation is below.

The specific concern is that if you ask and they talk about living in a place that is primarily occupied by a specific protected class, you have now accidentally strayed into the danger zone of federal concern. Long commuters are not a protected class, but people are highly variable in their sensitivity to commute times. Since it does not specifically relate to their ability to do the job, experience, or other factors you should be focused on, you should stay away from it.

A safe question you can ask if you’re concerned is something like “our core working hours are N to M, will that pose a problem for you?”
It's not discriminating against familial status--it's acknowledging someone's expectations about being allowed to miss work. Someone with the same familial status who arranges for other accommodations for getting their kids to and from school would not be affected.

Sick leave policy is up to the company. You cannot assume you are entitled to more sick days simply because you have children. If you will be taking off additional time due to having to care for sick children, that should be discussed ahead of time.

Emergencies do happen, but that doesn't excuse poor planning. A child becoming sick is not unforeseeable, and it's not unreasonable for both parties to acknowledge what the expectations are.

Many (most?) companies absolutely do make for allowances for employees with children, but that doesn't mean employers should be on the hook for whatever expectations the employee has. This is absolutely reasonably in-scope for an interview.

I suspect the solution if any, would be group up with similar minded people and run an profit making enterprise. But I speculate that this is unlikely to happen as most profit making enterprises tend to overstate what they will deliver in their marketing of products or services. But if the enterprise is made of individuals who do not oversell their services or product often their business never really takes off.
