I'm 100% in support of less car traffic in NYC but I think there has to be other reliable options in place before that change is made. Many people are using cars and ride-hailing apps as a remedy to the broken public transportation system. If I was working downtown and had a meeting in the middle of the day uptown on the East Side, taking the train would risk missing the meeting. Taking a car meant I had to leave earlier and pay a lot more money, but also meant I could be sure of actually getting there roughly on time. At least in my circles, the preference is public transportation and cars are used for the times when you're waiting 45 minutes or an hour for a train that never comes, watching the arrival timer continually count down to 0 and reset to 12 minutes.

I recently wrote about my home VPN setup in a previous HN thread [1]. But to answer your question, the additional use-cases I have are:

1. I connect to my home file server from all of my devices. This allows me to access my singular master file system from everywhere, which includes all of my documents and data. For example, I can reach my Keepass database from all devices without any need for clumsy synchronization or a third-party "cloud" provider.

2. I view my security camera streams by reaching my on-premises NVR from anywhere.

3. I can print to home from anywhere.

4. My entire media library is available from anywhere.

5. I can reach my family's home intranet web-app from all of my devices (e.g., my phone), natively.

It's true that all of this could be done in a remote desktop window, but it would be less smooth and less convenient. E.g., using Keepass in a remote desktop window wouldn't be as convenient as running it locally (with the kdbx loaded from the file server).

Right. They outright said that they are only worried about getting into legal trouble for what they're doing. Protecting the public interest is no longer considered to be part of their mandate.

The escape velocity from the Milky Way at our position (about 30,000 light years from the center) is roughly 500 km/s, so yes, 80 km/s is well short of escape.

Which also might be why it was ejected and made it to our solar system. The energy in its orbit might have been really high on a close approach to a star and a slight deviation flung it out of that system.

A highly eccentric orbit would have a close approach around a star, and then have it rapidly cool as it traveled away from the star. Repeat millions of times. Would make for a nice orbital, thermal and materials science simulation.
> The point is that patterns shouldn't be patterns in books—they should be abstractions in libraries.

And how you go about developing those "libraries"?

By writing code using the programming language, isn't it?

Just because C++ and Java and Python and many other programming languages added support for iterators and generators it doesn't make them out to be less of a design pattern. Heck, supporting emcapsulation and composition and information hiding doesn't make a facade pattern, as well as its concept and the semantics of implementing one, magically disappear.

This fundamental fact regarding design patterns is what these self-important fools miss. While they are too busy grandstanding with their criticism, they are actually showing off their ignorance and demonstrating they don't even understand the basic problems solved by design patterns, which are orthogonal to programming languages and their features.
But sometimes you don’t even know where to go or your direction might be wrong. Randomly jumping ships you discover a friend that shows you a secret direction. Alternatively you are born with a very fast ship from your parents and can cover more distance.

But you are right. Some people make the most of opportunities given to them, some just let it go thinking they have no influence over their life.

Hi. This is Eric, the founder of Code Sponsor. I appreciate your concern here. Please understand that for the last four months, I’ve been getting up at 5am and working till 7:30. I then would go to my day job every day and then get back to Code Sponsor in the evenings. I also worked every weekend. It was a huge struggle for me and my family to put in the time.

The reason I had a 40% rate was in hopes that I could make the business sustainable enough to pay me. Not once did I take a distribution.
wait, who does that? If you have to go somewhere, and don't want to take the subway, you usually get a cab. I am assuming normal yellow cabs will not be affected by this charge.

I live in Manhattan, and the people that I know that own a car and live here, they fall in the categories:

1. Work outside/far in the burbs, and need the car to go to work.

2. Are rich, and their car is there for the weekends...

3. Have a "commercial license", and can park at places where most normal folks can't.

In some areas you can find parking during the day, but in most places where there are businesses (most of downtown, and midtown), it is impossible finding a parking place unless you are paying a lot of money.

Much cheaper and less hassle to get a cab
Unfortunately, Github is where open source lives. The success that Code Sponsor saw was due to the minimal steps it took for a developer to start getting paid for open source. Asking developers to move their open source projects to Gitlab would not work.
Lol. You called your own comment insightful.
Its because of the migrant quotas that were imposed unilaterally.

Devaluing the CZK wouldn't have been possible if your country had switched to the Euro like Slovakia did.

The problem is the ECB does not want to devalue the Euro mainly because German fears of hyperinlfation. So they're trying to stimulate sluggish growth with negative interest rates. Which doesn't work. It only destroys pensions because it's esentially a tax on money.

Complicated. UK for example claims to have gotten permission from the Ottoman Turks to take a lot of stuff from Greece. At that time, Turks were the legit rulers, as Greece didn;t exist, so are they stolen?

Also, many time the Nazis officially or unofficially (ruling elites in city) "bought" them from Jewish owners. We can guess the price "agreed" to in those times.

A small counter suggestion. I know we all tend to be introverted but...go visit your reps. Visit them in DC, visit them in their offices in your area. Most will be home this week for thanksgiving and almost all will be home over the holiday break. Email them to schedule a meeting or call. Make them explain this to your face.

I tried this and after five emails have meetings with my rep and both my senators scheduled less than a week out.

A typeface is the design, a font is a specific incarnation of it. Helvetica Bold 12pt and Helvetica 18pt are two different fonts from the same typeface, Helvetica.

This comes from letterpress days where “font” referred to a collection of lead characters of a given typeface, weight, and size.
Of course the SSA's bonds are assets. If you lend yourself money, you create an asset and a debt (else where does the money go?) The debt is on the Treasury's books already; the Treasury bonds held by the SSA are the other half required to balance the books, and reflect actual payroll taxes. If we called those treasuries debts, we would be double - actually triple - counting debt.

This is an extremely mild accounting practice compared to what private companies routinely engage in. Not all of Google's IP actually originates from an Irish-owned company headquartered in Bermuda.

"Reliable" gold with its 30% annual price swings - well, enough said on that.

Or did you mean 1930s investors who got fiat instead of gold-backed dollars? There were rather more significant victims of the Depression.
I think most of us Brits would consider a sandwich with a quarter pound of meat in it to be an enormous amount of food.

Colleges and Universities have historically been and should always be about the preservation and pursuit of knowledge. If that is what is being optimized for, then you should also optimize for intelligence because the two are inextricably linked.
What was the difference between code sponsor and general "donate" buttons?
What other solutions do we have to provide scalable funding to open source projects? This comment really frustrates me. Do we put more buttons on our repos asking for money from other developers? Do we try to find corporate sponsorship and hope that they don’t try to influence the project? And if we did want to go that route, how do we do it?

Why is this not the right way to go about it? The “ads” were relevant, unobtrusive and ethical. There was never any click tracking, never any remarketing, nothing.

Code Sponsor provided the FIRST and ONLY means of scalable funding for open source projects. It was not depending on charity from others. It was a business transaction between sponsors and developers. The sponsors saw a return and the developers got paid to continue doing what they love.

If anyone else has a better idea, please share. Until then, I claim that it’s IS the right way to go about it.

I'm all for avoiding bias, but we know enough about this campaign by now to say with certainty it's shady.
This whole comment reads like PLA astroturf.
My FiL was a farmer. He farmed 88 acres in NE Indiana. He raised chickens, eventually 40,000 at a time.

The work was hard beyond belief. To make the farm pay, he bought used farm equipment from farmers who failed, built his own buildings, mixed his own feed, and did well in marketing to find buyers.

He used USDA Extension advice and research on chicken breeding, nutrition, and disease control. When he started, progress in these three made chicken raising suddenly a hot field. But eventually the business mostly moved to the US South with warmer winters and cheaper labor.

He then was able to get a good job in the local county seat: He became the head of the local Rural Electric Membership Cooperative (REMC). In part he got that job because he was respected in the community from his participation in the church, the Bank BoD, Lions, the school board, etc.

For the land, he leased that year by year to someone with good, large scale equipment farming 1000 or so leased acres.

At one time, 90+% of the US population lived on farms. Now it's 10-%. Farmer productivity has made fantastic gains.

So, now, it's tough to make much money farming. One approach is specialized products for high end markets, maybe pheasants, ducks, goat cheese, mushrooms, etc.

There's a lot nice about farm living, but life can be nearly as nice in rural areas still near a town and with work not in farming. A good Internet connection can eliminate some of the effects of a lot of geographic distances.
The mean is an precisely defined operation in mathematics, not a vaguely defined “pattern” in software engineering.

FWIW, this answer sets off the scam warning bells in my head.

There are two main reasons I think. First, you originally call the developer well-respected and then when pressed reveal that you really meant "personally like". This comes off as double speak and feels like you just lied in the first comment.

Second and what seals the deal for me, is that you double down on the double speak and argue that your stance is "more valuable". This comes off as highly defensive.

I certainly can't speak for your intentions or the actual content of your messages, but I'm assuming the charitable thing and guess that you might be unwittingly speaking in a way that's putting people off.

That said, these are just my personal gut reactions, so YMMV.
Donate buttons don’t work. They are asking for money from other developers. Imagine 100 developers in a room and each one takes out their purse or wallet and hands a dollar to the left. It’s not scalable, and it feels like begging.

Code Sponsor took the approach that scalable funding should come through marketing budgets, not charity. Companies pay developers to place a non-obtrusive, relevant and ethical banner on their repo or website and the developer gets paid on a per-click basis. The larger the repo, the more clicks they get. It is self-normalizing.
> Once enough people do this, the prices fall and you're just another farmer, scraping by.

You’re assuming that the bulk of the market always has to be cheap commodity goods. But the idea behind the artisanal movement is that both sides of the market will change. More small producers will produce more high quality goods and more consumers will pay high prices to buy them. Both sides need to grow in synchrony.

Maybe you can argue the dominance of low quality commodity foods is inevitable. I’d love to see that argument.

I think if you have good natural instincts about artificial intelligence you realize that Hinton really is the god in this space. If you don't, you get distracted by LeCunn and Schmidhuber and whatever lesser minds. The capsule theory here is maybe not the best implementation, but the intuition behind it is still leading the way. The undifferentiated mass of neurons is not how evolution has solved our problems. 3d geometry is intrinsic to the low level design. It shouldn't be learned. It should be assumed.

I reject your generic devotion to process. The real leadership and the process are far different. The process of peer review might do a good job of rejecting bad ideas, but it does a lousy job of accepting revolutionary ideas. I bet you don't understand the difference.
I'm offended by your complaints. See how quickly this gets out of hand.
Not arguing that it's not a stereotype that persists. I'm agreeing with the poster that said it's not a fair characterisation any more, which was then disputed.
> WordPress relies on countless server- and client-side dependencies

Which you have access to the source code and ability to choose when to upgrade.

Compare that to GitHub, Glitch and IFTTT, which:

- Also have countless dependencies, but not just in the source code, in their service architecture as well

- You do not have access to source code

- Can make your blog offline when they experience service disruption
60% of all traffic through Code Sponsor came from Github. 15% came from ad blocked traffic (I have no idea the referer). About 15% came from websites and then the remainder came from different repository websites (dockerhub, npm, etc).

I agree that this is a good idea, but open source exists on Github. Without their support, it just won’t happen.
There are two strong practical arguments for no means-testing.

The first is that these programs are much cheaper and easier to administer. The forms are simpler, there is less opportunity for fraud, the programs are easier to understand so less outreach is required, etc.

The second is that such programs are much more politically durable. In the US, compare the ever-teetering Medicaid or TANF with Medicare or Social Security, which enjoy broad support.

> which I wish I had spent gaining more experience in (sigh) C# and .NET

I am sort of afraid that I might end up in similar situation if I would need to change jobs. At my current company I worked 1/2y in Java, 1y in Clojure, 1y in Python, 1/2y in C#, 2y in mix of javascript, groovy, ansible and chef-scripts. There seems to be GO on a horizon.

This means that all the well earning "Senior Developer - requires 5 years experience with swing" will probably be out of reach.

But as they say, you shouldn't call yourself $LANGUAGE-programmer anyway, so I hope I will be able to sell myself as the "7 years of devops/process-automation", rather than "2-year Node.js experience" guy :-)
