The big elephant in the room that no one wants to touch is the massive immigration to San Francisco Bay Area from all over the world. The population stands at 7.68 million. Just in 2010 it was 7.1 mil. And in 2000, it was 6.7 million. So you essentially have an extra million people living in what was already pretty densely populated area.

I doubt NIMBY or anti-NIMBY is going to solve any problems.

People may be capable of programming, but are not programmers.

They do some other full time job and can't invest 2000 hours per year for 5 years to become efficient at all the detailed things the programmers have to deal with.

The use case is people who can excel at Excel, but don't want to learn about dependency injection, semantic versioning, exception handling etc.
They want to do this by overruling the authority of local government which is fundamentally wrong in a democracy. They also want the government to build housing. Another classic blunder committed by people who do not understand history, politics or economics.

Both are examples of over-regulation, and government overreach.

I think part of the in presence problems can be fixed with better virtual spaces. If slack was more like an mmorpg with buildings and rooms that you physically navigated in then teams could start building better camaraderie by having an avatar and a space that's there's. VR tech will take this to the next level and we'll have virtual offices where remote workers can all meet, collaborate, and build there own spaces to work together within.

Part of me hopes that valve is working on this already, bigscreen already is an example of the beginnings of a virtual office space.

The US has a great freight rail network. In the US a greater percentage of goods are carried on rail than in Europe.

An alternative explanation as to why the US has poor long and medium distance passenger rail is that the subsidy required is not cost effective.

If we were to exempt things like food and rent from the tax, then that may address that issue to some extent. Regardless, the rich do tend to spend a lot more money compared to the middle class or poor.

Capitalism takes a long time to work. Regulation can make it work faster or slower, depending on how you do :)

Pure capitalism works very very slowly, it takes decades and lessons often have to be repeated.

People can't account for every factor when they purchase a product. Being a conscious buyers is extremely hard work, a system that relies exclusively on that will take hundreds of years to make even modest progress.

We don't have that long time.
Improvements in the public transit network in Mass are a non-starter right now.

Massachusetts has a republican governor that refuses to spend on public transportation until the some of the waste at the agency is eliminated through reform. The public transit agency in MA does have some issues but the conept that the governor of who claimed lots of business experience can't "improve things at the same time." means we're stuck.

We have ballot question to allow the state to raise taxes on the very wealthy to pay for transportation and education. Be interesting to see how that direct governance works

I used to pay accident claims. Here are some real life medical records I had to review in my job:

One child lost an eye because someone left a loaded BB gun laying around in the house and another child picked it up and shot them. The other child probably thought it was a toy gun.

A toddler fell and broke their leg. It took the parents two to four days of the child refusing to bear weight on the leg for them to decide that a doctor's visit was in order.

A child went for an unsupervised ride on an ATV on a weekend morning while the parents slept in. Result: Their lower leg was amputated in the accident. They were nine years old.

But you go ahead and keep thinking that nothing genuinely bad ever happens to children when their parents are cavalier about risks to their safety.
I have a sense that remote employment works best for everyone concerned when the company workforce is entirely distributed (no offices anywhere). A level playing field avoids the "remote workers are second-class citizens" problem.

Yes, I think people are confusing the "VR" we do have with the VR we could have.

Even the latency on the smartphone display-loop is terrible (try moving your finger back and forth), mice were better; we're just used to it. MS experiments show that a perceptual transformation occurs at around 10-15ms. The same figure pops up in VR lit.; also in electronic music instruments (where it has been solved). [\tangent Perceptually-instant smartphone interactions are a potential revolution.]

And since it affects us when interacting immediately, it also affects us when interacting remotely.

Bushch & Müller makes a device that can be used to power gadgets from a SON hub (adjustable from 2.8 to 13.3V).

Based on the information provided, it is NOT plug-and-play; you must manually adjust voltage and current for your device, and if it's not amenable to voltage sags/stoppages, you have to add a buffer battery.

This part of the article where he describes crunching through some additional user data unnerves me: "It was like pressing a field of livestock into the sausage grinder, and getting out one hot dog as a result. And Facebook users are a very large herd."

Sometimes I wonder if from a high level, that's how Facebook sees users' data ("field of livestock") that goes into the data processing engine ("sausage grinder").
The fact that SF folks have "illicit cash" would not be a surprise to another SF person. I can't see this as being the reason for the execution.
That is exactly my point. I don't see why we should expect San Francisco to turn out differently from New York. Building more housing will allow more people to move there, which will drive growth, which will in turn attract even more people...
This is a losing battle for would-be tax reformers. The flip side of a large tax bill is an equally large incentive to minimize the legally required, or at least defensible, liability. As revenue grows, finding the denizens of Hacker News for Tax Attorneys and paying them larger and larger fees
makes more and more sense. On one side are slovenly political committees and the other elite tax code hackers.

When proponents of “fair share” and “ethical tax planning” resist giving exact definitions of these terms, they cannot be implemented but are instead red meat talking points to toss out to fellow partisans. In his book The Millionaire Next Door, Tom Stanley characterizes American millionaires, some 80% of whom received inheritances no larger than $10k, as being good at playing defense, that is keeping unnecessary outflow down. With this mindset, tax bills are only another expense to drive down, and they’re skilled and determined at doing so.

What it comes down to is it’s always easy to spend someone else’s money. Everyone thinks he is paying his fair share of taxes, but the guy down the street is another matter.
I didn't properly clarify in my parent comment that I was in an initial state of disbelief of the US military using any form of capital punishment. You're right though - if convicted, looks like the sentence would be carried out by lethal injection, and not a hanging.
You don't want them, but what you want is entirely irrelevant. This isn't a discussion about what existing landlords do with their own property, it's about not letting them block the new housing that they have absolutely no stake in and that benefits everyone else in the city.

I am curious how the landscape of software development would change if everyone followed suit. I am not sure the effect would be a net positive. $2000 per year is inconvenient. $2000 per year for each and every one of the 20 open source projects you use will be prohibitively expensive. Companies would start writing more of their codes in house instead of using commercial open source software. There would be way fewer freelancers and small software shops as the upfront cost will be enormous. Imagine if you had to pay $10,000 up front to start developing a small commercial Django project (e.g. Django, DRF, Dramatiq, Postgres, Redis).

It will be OK if the commercial option only applied to large organizations. But with the current setup, it just makes Dramatiq unreachable for the small players.
Again, the problem is that "social media" is so centralized.

It seems to me that there is too much focus on "how Facebook and Twitter are doing it wrong". Reliance on Facebook and Twitter to solve misinformation is absurd. We should be focused on alternatives.
No, because then it's what's optimized for. It's like if you run a hospital "like a business" -- it becomes optimized for making money at the expense of patient care.
The question is what the situation on the ground looks like. The short distance for NY/Chicago is around 800mi following more or less I-80. The problem with that route is you're missing any viable station between Cleveland and NY (maybe Scranton, but that's sending you in the wrong direction), and there's no real feasible reuse of that route for any other pairings other than NY/Chicago.

The "easy" route via the Erie canal (so Chicago/Cleveland/Buffalo/Albany/NY) is 950mi or so, which is simply getting too long to capture traffic. Going via Detroit and Niagara doesn't really add any time, and cutting the trip in half via Toronto would add some time, but you'd get two viable trip corridors out of it, if you could solve border control issues.

The most logical route is the Pittsburgh/Philly route, because you get the topography in your favor east of Harrisburg, reuse of corridor (Pittsburgh, Philly, and Harrisburg are all en route, not to mention the wye at Pittsburgh gives you basically Chicago/NYC and Chicago/DC on the same corridor). But this route is still 860mi, which is hard to keep to 5 hours.

But:
- tech salaries aren't US competitive
- people often speak Danish (sometimes it's a requirement)

And while you'll probably do fine with English in Denmark in general. Long term you would need to learn the language.
And to be fair, it's a useless language, there is only 5M speakers, why would anyone spend time learning that? :)

And yes, you would experience racism too. Just because it's a borderline social-libertarian paradise doesn't mean all the people are angels.

Generally, the overriding principle is that the state has ultimate authority, but how this works in practice is that the state makes rules for local governments to follow, collects tax revenue, and decides on the distribution of taxes.

The biggest area of difference between states is the balance of power between city and county, from New England (where counties are basically just statistical divisions) to Hawaii (where cities are just statistical divisions, and counties handle everything). Whatever that balance is, it's at this level that things are administered day-to-day; no state that I know of, for example, has a single state-wide police force (only state forces with limited jurisdiction, like the California Highway Patrol), or a statewide primary and secondary education system ("school districts" run those instead).

That last (school districts) touches on a complicating factor in understanding US local government - special-purpose districts. These are bodies formed by agreement between a set of local governments (usually with a state veto) to jointly handle certain policy areas. For each area of responsibility, the lines are drawn differently - for example, the LA Unified School District runs services for Los Angeles and neighboring cities, which do not share the LA Police Department. The East Bay Municipal Utilities District has a jurisdiction which is based on a collection of cities, and overlaps not-quite-perfectly with the AC Transit District (a body run jointly by Alameda and Contra Costa Counties). The policy areas a special purpose district manages are often quite granular - for example, while AC Transit runs buses, a separate transit district (SF Bay Area Rapid Transit District) - run by Alameda, Contra Costa, and San Francisco counties - runs the BART commuter rail. Despite BART running into South Bay counties, those counties do not participate in BART governance, and instead participate in the Peninsula Corridor Joint
Powers Board (San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara counties), which runs CalTrain, a different commuter rail service.

The results are... suboptimal. For example, in public transit, the result is a disjointed system where different transportation modes, and even different lines of the same transportation mode, are badly coordinated (have fun trying to get from Oakland to Mountain View by rail!). Compare with the gold standard of Germany, where Deutsche Bahn runs everything from intercity high-speed trains to local commuter rail and makes coordinated plans for the development of the transit system as a whole.
The question to ask is what made a caper as ballsy as this seem like a good idea to these chaps. It suggests a culture of impunity which is likely to mostly affect other people who are not so dear to the US military and government as a serving US Green Beret in good standing.

> No, all they need to do is use the client device to perform speech-to-text

On an iPhone, Apple has the full run of all device capabilities, and can even ship custom chips, but they still stream audio back to a server to process what people say to Siri.

Speech to text is very hard even when the speaker is purposefully speaking to the device. It would be way harder to try to extract meaning out of ambient audio.

Within 5 years, cloud APIs will be used in autonomous weapons. Embedded computation designed for phones and AVR systems will be used for autonomous weapons. They could very well be the "lower tech" new tech that proves to be more damaging than bio or nuclear weapons.
They might spin off the autonomous program into another company to raise fund, prior to IPO, perhaps, just a thought. I think that's a better option financially.
Beyond basic usage, XML is pretty complex: schemas, namespaces, XSLT, XSD, DTD, XPath and XQuery.

There are plenty of good arguments for the XML way of doing things. For example, having a rigorously defined way (XSLT) to specify transformations of schema-conforming XML is more robust than ad-hoc code that wrangles schemaless JSON.

But it does go against the hacker ethos and stands in the way of rapid development. And wherever it is used, complexity and verbosity seem to often follow. Look at SOAP, for example.
> We were trying to determine if maybe she had seen that same ad earlier in the day on Facebook, and it planted the craving in her head.

People don't seem to really understand how nefarious ads are. We think we're so smart. We won't be influenced by ads. No way we're falling for that. But if you know what "just do it", "the happiest place on Earth" or "think different" refer to, regardless of you opinions of those products, you have already been influenced by ads, and your next buying choices will reflect that.

We're frail, easily manipulated creatures, unprepared for the combined centuries of expertise that hordes of advertisers can control us with.
