>I think it's more of a "why did bots and inattentive parents fuck it up for the rest of us."

The main complaint is that Youtube Kids (an explicitly kid-friendly subset of youtube, with its own app and parental controls) is being targeted in this way. I assume "the rest of us" are not generally using this version of youtube.
you move revenue and expenses around in time to arrive at the income level you desire for a given time period using a variety of mechanisms: revenue recognition, IP transfer, capitalization, cost accounting, bonuses, transfer pricing, accelerated depreciation, etc. that's the whole point of tax advisors/accountants.

you'll need to explain how it's "incredibly stupid". you allude to one of the potential consequences being differential taxation (which you didn't explain very well; but yes, losses in some taxing periods could mean you pay more in overall tax for the same total income over many tax periods). that's part of the "more complicated than it sounds" caveat in my prior post.

but unlike you, i don't think it's all bad. for one, it would disincentivize excessive risk-taking (which lead to losses). and it would better align incentives between managers, owners and employees: it would be harder for executives to inflate income in one quarter and recognize the losses in another for the purpose of realizing undeserved bonuses for themselves. would that be so bad?

(besides, it's already the norm that companies have variable income and pay different amounts of tax over a given period of time for the same overall income--e.g., the apple imbroglio).
It seems like there's value in rote practice of tasks for improving focus and discipline. I'd argue that's part of why learning piano helps kids so much.

This whole mystifying programming may be good for the ego but its not real.

Anyone sufficiently interested can learn programming, and even work as a programmer without a degree and the 3-4 years of education and training other professions require.

And programming is not particularly difficult, people learn for more than 16-20 years of their life. Those interested will pick it up.

There is something seriously wrong in the tech community when many are quick and even eager to think of others as stupid. This is not only immature but its disconnected from reality. I think many should spend compulsory time with kids to understand how truly wonderful the human brain is.
>I suspect that Rob Pike's and Russ Cox's work is paid for by Google.

They are. The distinction I'm trying to make is they have not been tasked to "create an official Google language for Google scale projects", nor what the language officially adopted as "THE" google language the way e.g. Kotlin was officially adopted as a language for Android programming.

Some googlers (Pike and Cox among them) sat and designed a language that they thought would be good for Google scale programming (according to their ideas and experience) and they went and implemented it. Google paid their salaries the whole time, but at least at first, not for the purpose of creating such a language. After the language is out it paid, and even added more people, to keep it going --it gives good PR, and can be used internally here and there, so that's worth it to them.

It's just not "the Google language" in the way Obj-C/Swift are the Apple languages and C#/VC++ is the MS one (the company heavily investing in them, explicitly asking them to be built, suggesting their use everywhere, etc. For Google it's more of a side project than what e.g. Lars Bak worked on.
Idiomatic Erlang involves handling only errors that are expected (read: part of the program’s specification), and crashing on any other kind of error. This keeps the error handling out of the business logic and makes the app code simpler and more reliable.

For instance, you can’t forget to close a socket, release a lock, or log the actor state and stacktrace, since these things are handled by the VM and supervisors when an actor dies. These are nice properties to have even in a single-node system if you’re aiming for high reliability.

I do agree though that a supervision tree doesn’t make as much sense in Go, since the VM does not provide the cleanup guarantees and strong process isolation that make the Erlang model really workable.

I have very little fear of robots in the near future because my opinion is that the best we'll be able to do is an imperfect copy of us and we're already so laughably imperfect.

Even if someone programs robots specifically to take over the world autonomously, they would need to either encode all the assumptions or else train them perfectly for all situations.

Also they'd have to be able to adapt to all the environments humans can... you make robots adapted to urban warefar environments, great we go to the mountains and develop something to target that design and counterattack.

Obviously if AGI comes about, we could be in trouble, but I don't believe that's around the corner and have doubts about it's feasibility on any timeline.

I would go on, but now I'm cut short by life... would love to hear counterpoints.

If the rules "are there for a reason" then black cabs would be obviously superior and wouldn't be at a competitive disadvantage.

In some ways, black cabs are obviously superior. To pick a few examples, their pricing is regulated by local authorities, they are required to be wheelchair accessible, and their drivers are required to have The Knowledge along with various other qualifications before being licensed.

To the extent that black cabs may be at a competitive disadvantage compared to Uber's standard (non-surge) pricing, that is in part because Uber's current financial model seems to be subsidising every journey using the vast amounts of funding they have accepted. That is not sustainable. It is also in part because of exactly the sort of issues we're talking about today, where they've been cutting their costs at the expense of their drivers in legally questionable ways, which again is hardly playing on a level field.

Recording something in a technical context generally implies that it's accessable to the person or group that caused the recording to happen. That is not the case here and the headline is somewhat misleading.
I believe we should push Google, Apple etc. into taxing permissions usage, say 2% for every permission if you use it and 5% if you require it but don't use it, so that if common sense doesn't work at least greed will encourage programmers to require access only to what is really necessary.
criminal law != civil law. And the law in fact doesn't apply retroactively, but it would apply to events in the future, that were determined in the past, based on certain assumptions.

Yes, the only reason the government is hiding time machines from us is their inability to finish the tax laws that would apply :)

Analogy: If congress raises gas taxes (nobody said analogies have to be realistic), everyone would have to pay more at the pump. But that doesn't mean the tax is applied retroactively.

> It's totally understandable for Erlang, where the VM spans multiple machines, so everything is unreliable, but in Go, I take it for granted, that my goroutines won't "just crash".

Supervision tree gives a structure to put whole subsystems somewhere,
including their boot initialization and shutdown (not just restarting it at
crash), allows to spawn workers while keeping usual logging/crash monitoring
for free, gives a way to inspect the system at runtime (much easier
debugging), and allows to run several different applications in the same VM
space, which is a flexible way of combining code. I can, for instance, run
a CouchDB instance with bolted on my own HTTP server that exposes monitoring
data or an administrative interface. It cannot be done in Go (or any other
language, barring maybe Lisps) without modifying source code.

And no, none of this "spans multiple machines", it all works and helps on just
one single node. Maybe except for debugger, where you spawn a shell node from
which you operate.

And yes, your goroutines will "just crash" in situations you haven't expected,
as every non-trivial daemon experiences crashes on transient bugs. Though in
Erlang transient bugs don't bring the whole daemon down. Saying `my goroutines
won't "just crash"' means `my code and code I use as libraries doesn't have
bugs, ever'.

And yes, I do think for any company out there crawling the web, RSS feeds are a good indicator. Ofcourse, Google algorithms got to the point that they don't really need RSS feeds anymore, but that's perhaps also the reason why quite often their search results kind of suck, as soon as you dive deeper.

The real problem, for all of us out here - is that no-one even bothers making a search engine anymore.

Everyone has given up. And Google can just do whatever they want. And that's exactly what they do.

They're (more than likely - almost certainly) using proprietary image fingerprinting techniques.

If you had access to the original implementation, you could probably defeat them permanently with minimal alteration via reverse engineering. Which is why you don't have access to the original software, its specifications, or implementation details.

It simply reflects social priorities. If physical violence were tolerated as commonplace and had few deterrents then a lot of people would feel much more unsafe all the time.

I wonder if you have ever lived day to day in a place where a few wrong words to virtually anyone would get you beaten with zero consequences to the attacker. I have and I absolutely don't miss it vs. living today in a place with virtually absolute physical safety but a more wild west financial industry.
Could it be a strange mindset of our time that we look to language ecosystems to provide this? What if we could manage dependencies without being locked into language?

Conda goes some way. Think of something like virtualenv, but not specific to python. I would be happier with something that had fewer features than conda, but where critical features were easier. Example: setting up a package server should be trivial.

I think we do not yet have the git of dependency systems, with the gravity to draw in the community and for people to regard it a solved problem. Maybe the most efficient route would be: find a way to get Linus pissed off about it.
> The 80-year-old so called Title II regulations were originally used to regulate railroads and then the Ma Bell telephone monopoly of the 1930's. [...] The lunacy of applying old, rotary-dial telephone regulations on something so dynamic is self-evident.

The 2015 Open Internet Order:

• Bans paid prioritization

• Bans ISPs blocking their customers from accessing legal internet content

• Bans ISPs degrading access to legal content

Which of these does Forbes think is "old, rotary-dial telephone regulations"?

Forbes argument is like saying that the First Amendment should not apply to web sites because the First Amendment is 200 year old newspaper regulation. That would be incorrect because it confuses speech, which is the subject of the First Amendment, with the technologies that may be used to transmit speech.

He's making the same error with net neutrality. He's confusing the content and purposes of communications (which is largely the same now as it was in the 1930s) with the technology that happens to be used for that communication.

He seems to have overlooked that the 2015 Open Internet Order specifically excluded over 700 provisions from the Title II rules from applying to internet. That's where all the things he fears would hurt investment were.

We know that light-touch Title II regulation, such as that of the 2015 Order is compatible with investment, because that's how wireless voice has been regulated for over 20 years.

I'm kind of surprised he didn't also include the old Republican talking point about the 2015 order being 400 pages of regulations. In fact, it was about 8 pages of actual regulation. That document the FCC issued also included hundreds of pages of analysis to explain why they made the regulations they did and responses to the points raised during the public commentary period.

The obvious reason why Facebook didn't go down this path is one of scale - It's easy (and altogether likely) for an attacker to pollute the hashes with innocuous pictures. But, even more importantly, once you reveal your hashing system, it's relatively trivial for people to work around them and modify the pictures in such a way as to render the hashing system useless. Has to be done server side for these reasons.

Cursive is the most efficient method for writing by hand. Also, for many, it's much easier for them to write in a readable fashion with cursive.

My son is 11, and was never taught cursive in public school. His print writing is legible, but not neat.

From when security through obscurity is a good idea?
The ERC-20 standard is now finalized as an official EIP (Ethereum Improvement Proposal), meaning any bugs in the leading implementation will almost certainly be considered a protocol bug and rolled back with a hard fork.

So I don't think there's any disadvantage in using Ethereum for token sales, and plenty of advantages like experimenting with new token sale smart contracts (different auction mechanisms to allow better price discovery), not to mention the larger suite of compatible applications (anything ERC-20 compliant like Etherdelta or 0x for decentralized exchange).

Also, Counterparty uses a port of the Ethereum Virtual Machine, so any innovative uses of it will have the same risks as using Ethereum.
