This ignores history. Every time some resource became scarce people figured out a way to get more, or find something else.

Once prices go up, people will figure out how to farm tuna, and then they will no longer be scarce.

A single tuna can lay 6 million eggs. You don't need that many to supply the entire worlds demand for it.

Ask HN: Good books about modern political campaign strategy?
I'd like to get a better idea of why political campaigns do what they do, at a deep strategic level.

For example, I volunteered on a campaign a few years ago. I worked the phone bank. My task was to find other volunteers, just like myself, to work the phone bank. At no point did any of us talk with anybody other than registered party members.

From that, I realized that the underlying goal of the phone bank was not to actually call people from outside the party and convince them to change their views, as I had assumed.

Rather, the goal was to increase engagement among probable voters because -- statistically -- it meant they were more likely to show up on voting day.

Are there any books that explain political campaign strategy at this level?

Well, you should be able to encrypt the subject/body of the email without encrypting the headers, so the mail vendor never sees the content of the email, only the to/from addresses and such. But that encryption has to happen in the browser/application. ie Mailvelope plugin for Chrome and others like it. and I think there is an android mail client that will also do pgp/gpg encryption/decryption.

Or you can use it for local development, as you edit code

This is a huge feature for me in my Elixir development. I mostly use Elixir for some server code that manages many connections to external network entities. It would be a huge hassle to bring down my server application every time I want to make a change.

With Elixir (yeah, Erlang), I can normally recompile the module I'm working on and deploy it in the running server. Not only is it a good way to constantly observe Erlang hot-swapping in action on my dev machine, it's a huge time saver.

Off-topic: I wonder who made the call on the next college to move to when Facebook expanded out of Harvard to other colleges.

Was it Zuckerberg? Would love to read about this aspect from Facebook's history as whoever came up with the strategy had a clear understanding of the Economics concept of artificial scarcity [0] and its attendant effects; it was incredibly effective at stirring up sustained interest among college students and the wider population about TheFacebook.com until it was their turn to sign up for an account.

Netflix has a ~200 PE ratio, there is no means for it to ever justify its existing valuation (400 million global subscribers? no chance), much less a far higher one. Their present business model has never proven the ability to produce good margins, content has perpetually sapped their earnings potential and is likely to continue to do so.

Facebook and Google will stagnate and grow into their valuations. Google particularly is trading far beyond where it should versus its now modest growth rate. ~37 times earnings, $700 billion market cap, for 10%-15% annual growth over the next five years? No thanks. In the not very distant future, Google will pull a Microsoft and begin paying out a dividend, after this latest stock market bubble ends and their stock returns drift to mediocrity.

People said that three, five, ten years ago. What is happening is that the market for mobile and desktop ads and e-commerce is growing, combined with increased market share for these three companies, creating a double tailwind. I'm certain Google, Amazon and Facebook will not suffer the fates of Exxon, GE, PetroChina, Royal Dutch Shell, Citigroup, AT&T, Gazprom, BP, Toyota, Bank of America, China Mobile, HSBC, ICBC, and Walmart. Part of the reason Amazon, Google, and Facebook will be permanently successful and are so resilient is because they have market dominance, impassable moats, ubiquity, and are mostly immune to global macro conditions, whereas commodity and banking companies are much more vulnerable to macro conditions. It's much easier to create a steel, drilling, or mining company (look at all the overnight fracking companies that went bust in 2015-2016) than it is to, say, get 1/6 of the world population on your social network (Facebook), every website and phone displaying your ads (Google), or every consumer buying from your store (Amazon) (and also the cloud hosting services). http://greyenlightenment.com/will-the-silicon-valley-tech-fo...

But also, some of those companies you listed pay huge dividends, so when you factor those into the returns, it's not stagnant.

I specifically seek out Bootcamp grads. I once hired a CS grad 3 years ago that didn't have even basic Git/Github skills, had never used CI, among other things. He could algorithm with the best of them, but the last time I had to actually write a binary search tree was at a coding interview. Yet optimizing ActiveRecord queries or tweaking Varnish configurations -- that's something I deal with regularly.

Obviously not all CS grads are clueless, but unless they spend some time independently learning something beyond the college curriculum, they're often worthless when they start their first job. A bootcamp person (I've hired from General Assembly in NYC,) can generally build a complete CRUD app without much help, including deploying it to AWS or Heroku, using SCM correctly and ensuring it's covered with tests.

Of course, everyone's business has different needs. If I were working with SPARK or Ada on ultra-critical systems, at the entry level, I'd definitely prefer the CS grad, but for general web applications, the bootcamp grad often hits the ground running.

> There may be a good answer for how we can know our fishing impact with so little data

We know it experientially, based on how external factors in previous overfishing have played out. When nearly every aspect of technology should enable more/better fishing, but instead quality and quantity go down per unit of work, the problem is overfishing creating a lack of supply.

The issue is that there are a bunch of steps that are polled (usb), or that require many context switches/interactions with the scheduler. All of this adds significant latency, regardless of the throughput of the CPU.
It all sounds quite complex when you say it like this. But current JS engines can already do it and they do it very well (and efficiently). They even use integer arithmetic when it is possible.

By the speedup, I expect you mean the "preparation" speedup, not the execution speedup. It depends on what you do. But in most of cases, the preparation speedup will not be so significant.

Why Duckduckgo Is the Future of Search
I've recently been exposed to the resale community that uses eBay, and it's quite impressive. Many people scour thrift stores like Goodwill for items to resell, but the process seems inefficient for both the resellers and the thrift stores.

To make the process more efficient for both and to increase demand for goods, I imagine that there could be pre-processing services provided to both sellers and buyers, which take photos of groupings of goods and use ML to provide likely metadata about each good and assemble thumbnail photos of each good. They could then be posted to a central "marketplace" area that is accessible to buyers.
Having worked at over a dozen places in my career, I've never encountered a code base that takes longer than three months to master let alone ramp up on. This includes shitty code, overly complex code, and well written code. I'd say the challenge is staying interested and challenged after three months.
Sure. You could absolutely have an entirely different protocol that doesn't work with all the existing email clients/services out there. It's certainly been done multiple times. Obviously it's not caught on, though, because compatibility is sort of a big deal.
A good approach; the 'ban the box' campaign that aims to prevent questions about past felonies on employment applications is a step in this direction.
Farm raising tuna is difficult. Not sure if it is done commercially yet and, even if successful, I would guess wild caught tuna will still be highly prized in Japan. It is really the Japanese market that is and will keep driving the high end of the fish market.
The problem with those is they are capital intensive industries with commodity products. Not exactly the kind of thing that compounds capital at fast rates.
> I got more years of service out of the second-hand, refurbished, mismatched washer and dryer that I bought from the ratty converted house/shop on 3rd street than I got out of the "higher" end models, and paid 1/4 of the price.

I think that's one misperception. High end anything models aren't high end because they're more reliable - they're high end because they have more features or more expensive finishes, but have more complexity to go wrong. It's true of cars too.. My pet theory is the most reliable model is the highest volume model because the company doesn't want to get eaten by support costs.

I bought a low-end GE twenty years ago and it kept going with fairly easy parts repair on anything that wore out. But it was a very basic washer. I did eventually replace it with a higher end washer from another company - but I had to make my peace that I was getting low-water use and more complexity while likely giving up reliability. My wife and I have fantasized about starting an appliance company that values repairability and reliability without high-end features, but quality materials ...
It doesn’t really. I’m not claiming this works with standard Haskell practice. Typed techniques don’t translate directly to untyped things.

The act of traversing each time is “forgetting”/“synthesizing” type information and is exactly the issue. Dynamic code destroys type information.
Yes they can, they are farming a fish called Cobia in Queensland Australia that is a sashimi grade fish. The farming process is surprisingly good too, they worked with a local company and sorted out a crop based land grown food pellet for the fish to remove a large amount of reliance on pulling their food source from the ocean.

Looks like it’s not completely unreasonable—they’re not doing straight-up tracking, and wanting to figure out who damaged your expensive machine is a reasonable goal. However, this still (I think) allows tracking anybody they claim is dangerous or a criminal. Better, but far from good.
This was news to me, but in the other direction: the claim is that 50-60 percent of fish served as sushi has been frozen at some point, implying that 40-50 has never been frozen.

Given that most of the non-tuna species need to be frozen and the tuna supply chain consists almost entirely of frozen fish outside of some high end restaurants in big cities (and perhaps some fishing towns that make a up vanishingly small portion of sushi consumption) - where is all this fresh fish coming from?

On top of that, salmon and varieties of tuna seem to make up the large majority of fish used in sushi. Yes, other options exist, especially at high-end places, but go into your run-of-the-mill sushi joint pretty much anywhere and those two dominate (not counting the "fake crab" that seems to make up half of maki by weight these days - that's certainly frozen also). As above, tuna is generally frozen, and salmon largely has to be, so where is all this fresh fish at?
Every time, really? Like every single time?

I think it's a bit more than that. Russia (or Putin, really) is terrified of color revolutions. He's afraid that people will rise up against the sham that passes for democracy there, and throw him out of power.
