>Since the 1980s we have been producing enough food to feed everyone on earth. So to take that example, of that basic necessity, there is no scarcity. From that moment on making sure nobody starved ceased to be a problem of scarcity and became a problem of distribution.

Scarcity is a feature that exists due to physical limitations and processes that have a) shaped human evolution for millennia, socially and biologically; and b) have not ceased since the 1980s. We may produce enough food to feed everyone on earth by some metrics, but that doesn't mean that the principle of scarcity is irrelevant in either the theoretical or practical sense.

>I have a biological impulse to kill people who cross me, to shit on the street, to steal things I want, if given the chance. The proof of that is that for the vast majority of the existence of our species this was how we behaved. Nevertheless I tamed those impulses. No reason why the impulses of hoarding for myself to the ruin of others can't be tamed as well.

Negative default behaviors are mitigated through systems that recognize, acknowledge, and cooperate with the human impulse instead of trying to deny its existence or inevitable operation. If bathrooms are too far apart or the wait is too long, then people don't use them and yes, will alternately relieve themselves on the side of the street.

We need to carry some of that realism into our economic and political discussion.

So what? Coincidences occur all the time. Unless they expose a deeper hidden scientific/mathematical truth (which is not the case here), they aren't worth mentioning. Since the number of things that can be compared is astronomically huge (and increases every day), the chances of having coincidences is huge (and increases every day). The birthday paradox is an example of how common coincidences really are.

Numerologists of centuries past wasted lots of intellectual potential by obsessing over simple coincidences.
You can remotely wake-on-wlan (maybe even 4/5g modem) - remote control, install Os, software - it's a management engine. And it's quite terrifying in its power. But sure, it's potentially useful - it's just a shame it's closed, so it's more of a liability/flaw than a feature.

All functions in Haskell are single-argument functions. Multiple arguments are syntactic sugar. The syntax sugar can make it confusing to talk about but if you define an `add` function that takes two arguments x and y:

add x y = x + y

it's sugar for multiple single-argument functions.

add = \x -> \y -> x + y

When examining it this way, the `g` function above would translate to

g = \(x, y) -> 2 * x + y

Which is a function taking a single tuple argument. It is still "default curried" but the argument being passed in is a single argument rather than multiple so we don't expand it to multiple single-arg functions. Perhaps it is more illustrative to show the definition as the single argument it is rather than using haskell's destructuring to pull x and y out of the tuple.

g tuple = 2 * (fst tuple) + (snd tuple)

and a ghci session for completeness:

Prelude> let g (x, y) = 2 * x + y
Prelude> g (1,2)
4
Prelude> let y tuple = 2 * (fst tuple) + (snd tuple)
Prelude> y (1,2)
4

So when we say that Haskell functions are "curried by default", what we're referring to is roughly the underlying single-argument nature of haskell functions.
No, don't apologize! Your answer is one of the things I had in mind, especially for getting used to being interviewed. I was hoping that this thread will also be helpful to other HNers who have similar concerns and/or doubts.
Martin Rees is very inventive: he postulates limits to scientific understanding and immediately demonstrates them, using himself as the exemplar.

Rees states, "Big things need not be complicated either. Despite its vastness, a star is fairly simple—its core is so hot that complex molecules get torn apart and no chemicals can exist, so what’s left is basically an amorphous gas of atomic nuclei and electrons."

OK, Martin, in that case I expect your prediction for the exact number and distribution of sunspots on Sol for every day of 2018 on my desk in the morning. A star is fairly simple, no? So what's the holdup?

Stars are complex; Martin Rees is simple.

Blimey, I just used a spreadsheet 8) I'm not sure what language you are using but it actually comes close to looking like a proper proof - all the inputs are on show and the construction is reasonably obvious. My spreadsheet is trivially correct as well but some of the working is not on obvious show unless you inspect the cells. Also, my spreadsheet is unavailable unless I share it.

It's nice to have more numerous and better options for donations.

However, I cannot stop feeling that the real issue is not really the receiving end but the giving end.

The amounts given to software creators are generally small, little more than pocket money. It's far from something that can sustain, even partially, a developer.

What I would love to see, specially in tech companies, is something like a 50$ credit that each employee can see fit to give to any OSS project/developer.

For example, given our extensive usage of Postgres, and given how fundamental it has been in our operation, I would love to give them a few bucks and I'm pretty sure I would not be the only one to do the same.

Another thing that might be great, is to have some foundations to give to. Then this foundation would identify some core but low visibility projects (like OpenSSL pre-heartbleed for example) and distribute funding to them. This role can also be assumed by the donation platform.
Without the drivers the tool can’t check, so it has to report “may be vulnerable”.
If the fire department sent firefighters into danger with faulty breathing apparatus and they died because of it, you'd expect the fire department to have to compensate their families, right?

> Our society would still be surviving by hunting if it wasn't for the smart people.

Yeah, except that the guy who "was smart enough to think about agriculture but not hard working enough to practically invent it" didn't help much towards moving away from hunting to something better. Probably people like him only got others killed in various direct or indirect ways. Also, "recruiting others to implement your ideas" is also really hard work: you're not going to convince others to do what you thought with just a few smart sounding remarks, and if they'd be smart enough to understand you arguments and explanations, they would have invented the new thing themselves.

So being witty out of the question, argumenting and explaining out of the question, the smart guy who invented agriculture probably had to work his ass off until he proved others he can do at least as well as by spending the same amount of time hunting!

Ergo our society would still be surviving by hunting if it wasn't for the hard working people! (And yeah, if enough people work hard, some of them would also happen to be smart since IQ is mostly randomly distributed.) Seriously, get your shit together and work your ass off if you want your smarts to have a non-negative impact on anything (including on yourself).

EDIT+: Also, you picked a very ironically unfortunate example: in general, hunting can actually require much higher intelligence than doing basic agriculture in many cases (although inventing agriculture from scratch is a different thing).
that's why often you have architects and managers together leading teams. The architect is an engineer working at the blueprints/source code. The manager coordinates communication channels, team defined goals, integration with sales, etc. If I need a raise or sit in another office, I talk to the manager. If I need a different API, I talk to the architect.
I was thinking along the lines of the recent payoff for the data breach, the myriad of sexual harassment claims.. etc. Each of those represent a legal risk with a financial impact that, to someone ignorant about the VC space, would make me think twice about the going concern of the business.

Ethically, you are standing on firm ground. Unfortunately, he’s talking about free markets, where price and demand are set by the market, free of any government interference. Those who truly believe in the Free Market believe that buyers will ultimately see through deception and poor conduct and make purely rational and pragmatic decisions.

This being the Real World means pure free markets are impossible and in fact dishonesty and chincanery can utterly distort markets, leading to all sorts of perverse outcomes.

Ironically, for a free market to operate well, you must have reasonable constraints on market participants.
I see that happening only under an employee owned company. Most companies start small though, with 1 to n founders and/or equity owners. I think it takes a special owner and a very special set of employees for an owner to later abdicate control back to their employees.

I haven't read the EULA recently but I seem to recall that it was forbidden to publish benchmark results. I don't think there is any rule against performing your own benchmarks. Both Oracle and Microsoft have free evaluation/developer licenses that would allow you to do that.

I know it's a lot of work, but anyone whose business is dependant on database performance needs to know how the system will perform with their data and their use cases. I think they would also like to put some effort into working with the database to see how well the associated tools work. It would be nice to have synthetic benchmarks to review as a starting point and I suppose those exist for the open source engines such as Postgres, Maria and MySQL. It should be safe to assume that Oracle and MS-SQL are at least as fast and a little testing should verify that.
> It's a story about a man trying to get home, and a woman staying faithful in the face of uncertainty. Anything else is reading too much into it.

Of the 24 books of the Odyssey, Odysseus' famous seafaring wanderings account for just 4. Likewise, the narrative focuses on Odysseus in 20 out of the 24 books, and he is at home, on Ithaca, for 12 of them. Clearly, Odysseus trying to get home is not the main point of the story, however memorable some of his nautical adventures are.

If you ask me, the poem is about barbarism versus civilization, revenge versus justice, family, and the nature of heroism.
The figures in this paper use pretty deceptive scales. To be clear, DeepVariant is 0.5% better than a tool built in ~2010 (GATK), on DeepVariant's best test.

GATK is still the standard, not because better variant callers don't exist, but because it's more important that everyone uses the same tool for comparisons between studies.

DNA has a half life, but the real question here is how being trapped in amber would affect that half life. So there may be more - or less - than one would expect if the DNA would be in some other environment. At a guess the time span involved is long enough that no matter how this would be influenced there still would not be any usable DNA fragments.
Perhaps, but there's not for an association between most of the things people casually refer to as signs of civilization decline and such decline.

This is typical Silicon Valley hype taking credit for everything. There were many EV manufacturers around the same time as Tesla (ex. Nissan, BYD). Even earlier, the supply chain for lithium batteries got momentum due to electric buses and hybrid vehicle manufactures but no one gives them credit, only Tesla for some reason. Currently, Tesla is only a small chunk of the entire EV and battery market but still gets all the credit.

You can see this in the Tesla Semi or the Tesla battery pack announcement. Companies have been mass producing them 4 years before and are already being used in production today. However, being B2B, these products were largely low key. But somehow Tesla gets all the credit these and "moving the industry forward". Chinese and Korean battery manufactures have also been expanding production like crazy and account for the vast majority of production but only the GigaFactory gets any mention which cause some people think Tesla alone is responsible for the decreasing price of batteries.

Major auto manufactures are working on EV mainly due to government policy. I agree private companies seeing traction selling EVs is a large impetus for the new government policies, but to only credit Tesla is over-exagerating it's contributions. How much does Tesla influence Chinese policy when 95% of Chinese EVs are made by domestic brands?

And yet here we are seeing off four hostile fork attempts in a couple of years (xt/classic/bu/2x). You'd think after four failures in a row, all failing for exactly the same reason, that the people supporting the failures might learn why they fail. But here we are. Explaining why they fail, after they fail, and yet the supporters of the failures are trying to assert that even though they fail, they understand the system. Without even acknowledging that they have failed, let alone why.
It's no different from pricing your product at $9.99/month instead of $10/month, or $9.99/month instead of $119.88/year. Or more pertinent, marketing Java 1.8 as Java 8, selling products with random alphanumeric names like "A-Series 7340X", retroactively renumbering previous software versions, or going straight from Windows 8 to Windows 10.

Software version schemes are often started at 0, or other times 1, so why not any other integer? I don't expect software version numbers to mean anything except that higher is (probably) chronologically later. That said I would probably still start numbering internal/beta versions at 1 or 0 and use 2 for the first release.

It's not even in the same league of dishonesty as ubiquitous practices by blue-chip tech companies such as using trial pricing in advertisements, selling "new versions" of software with only trivial changes, selling "extended warranties" on hardware that don't cover the most common causes of breakage, or claiming customers have access to "expertise" developing intelligent zero-downtime SaaS solutions on the blockchain with the deep learning algorithms powering our global AR/VR-enabled IoT cloud.
