Having been on both sides of the situation a couple times, the distinction is pretty simple for me: do you have a seat on the board?

If you have a board seat, great, you're a real founder/CTO!

If you're not interested in the board seat or you're aware that you don't bring enough to the table to earn it, you're a good candidate for a founding engineer. You should be happy!

If the other founder(s) want you to be a founder/CTO without the board seat, run! They're just using the prestige of the title to pay you less, and will revoke it at the first convenience.
"Both German and U.S. government officials deny a media report that President Trump presented German Chancellor Angela Merkel with a multi-billion dollar NATO bill." - https://www.snopes.com/2017/03/28/trump-merkel-nato-bill/

Despite how much we spend on the military, the U.S. Navy has its own set of problems. Remember the multiple ship collisions this year? That's apparently as a result of how cost-saving measures affect training, at least based on one analysis.

WarIsBoring has also reported "The U.S. Navy Is Flat Worn-Out / The United States is asking too much from its sailors" - https://warisboring.com/the-u-s-navy-is-flat-worn-out/ :

"The fact is, the Navy is flat-out overworked. Americans ask their sailors and their warships to be in too many places at once, and when there are far too few of them. Nor is Congress allocating enough money to build ships to make up for the Navy’s shortfall while it also seeks to cut taxes and balance the federal budget."

Similarly, "The U.S. Navy’s Greatest Enemy Might Be Exhaustion" https://warisboring.com/the-u-s-navys-greatest-enemy-might-b...

No, I don't think we have no ships available for a given class. But that's because we have a huge amount of ships.

And the US spends money on the military like there's no tomorrow. Not always well.

For example, "Here Is Why the U.S. Navy’s Littoral Combat Ships Punch Below Their Weight" - https://warisboring.com/here-is-why-the-u-s-navys-littoral-c...

and "The U.S. Navy is trying to dodge its responsibility to conduct a critical test of its new, $13-billion aircraft carrier. ... The provision would permit the Navy to delay shock trials until the second ship in the class is ready for testing in several years. Waiving this requirement for Ford would endanger the lives of the 4,300 sailors of the ship’s complement and risk massive cost overruns in the years ahead as the Navy continues building an untested design." https://warisboring.com/the-u-s-navy-wants-to-deploy-its-new...

and "Senators Are Forcing the U.S. Navy to Buy Crappy Ships It Doesn’t Want" https://warisboring.com/senators-are-forcing-the-u-s-navy-to... is one of several article concerning the 'troubled' Littoral Combat Ship.

> We don't need to run an "experiment" to know this would be bad.

That's the kind of armchair philosophizing that leads to all kinds of problems, we need more scientific method and less philosophy if we want to get anywhere in a productive manner.

There's plenty of counter points to be made about the sales tax. Here's two.

1. Its the most efficient tax.

2. It has the lowest economic damage.

For point #2, the idea is that if you can increase the wealth everyone benefits, since economics is not a zero sum game. Also you can get around whatever you deem vital needs/rights i.e. food, shelter, in your society through subsidizing. Here's some other information from an economic perspective as well (https://www.taxanalysts.org/content/economic-analysis-can-st...).

Anyway, to say its even more regressive and we don't need to experiment is not progressive. We have ostensibly the same goals (more wealth for everyone, fewer people in poverty/elimination of poverty,etc) and the only way to get at social systems that optimally give us our goals is to apply a more rigorous scientific method and get out of the political philosophy camp - IMHO :)

How would we ever make any progress in medicine if we never conducted any experiments and relied instead purely on observational studies? How much slower would our progress be?

oh, you were talking about a hypothetical future. Never mind then.
"Not structured around political parties" amounts to "only one party." Given California's Democrat majority, and the type of people that vote in primaries, the system removes any chance of a third party candidate and requires the Republican's candidate to be a consensus choice before the primary vote.

In a Democrat primary, Feinstein getting 49% of the vote could end with her removed from the ballot. In this system, 20% could see her on the ballot.
Right but they're not saying they don't trust regulators and legislators as a concept, they're saying they don't trust them when they're basically writing what lobbyists tell them to. It's right they don't trust the law, but their criticism isn't of law and regulation. It's of lobbyists.

It's not impossible. The CBAs in the capped leagues aren't going to grow the cap as much. In cases like the MLB, you'll just see a larger separation between owners willing to lose a lot of money and those not willing. Some of the MLB TV contracts (like Fox Sports Southwest for the Rangers) are for 20 years and the MLB doesn't even give them global streaming rights. It'll be the TV companies not upping their bids as high next go round. In the meantime, they will milk it for all they can, and you see more innovative and subtle ad placement (compared to traditional commercials and signage) already as a result of this.

Also, just this past week, ESPN sucked up all of these regional Fox channels and are on the hook for these contracts. There is a real bubble in sports salaries right now, and it won't be supported by viewer eyeballs forever.

People expect updates once they've purchased an app for a few bucks. They tend not to pay more, and developers who release v2 and v3 as completely separate apps are often criticised. Not to mention, export/importing data can be a new issue across apps.

An upgrade could be released as an IAP, but asking for more once you've released a paid app is risky also.

I tend to avoid subscription software too, but I can fully understand why developers lean towards it as a way of getting a strong return and justifying further development, taking on staff for support, etc.

If the app isn't up to it, then consumers can find an alternative that can scrape by with a single price, right?
I'd argue it should be "abstractions take care of problems you don't care about". What you care about may be different from others, hence the variety of abstractions.

I have a VR system and I wear it knowing that it makes me look like a total doofus. You also have zero ability to discern what's going on around you, e.g. to easily socialize with someone walking by. The productivity advantage a VR application would have to be huge for it to be worth doing things by VR, and the fact is that the fidelity just isn't there yet. I would also argue that even with fidelity, the usecases seem specious. But I also thought that the "Minority Report" scenes (which didn't involve a siloed-VR-helmet experience), while cool-looking, seemed like an extremely inefficient way to solve crimes.

Yes, about them, but I’m not sure what OS limitations do you mean?

For Windows, it works fine from the very first NT 3.51 version of IOCP.

For Linux it indeed didn’t work in the very first version of epoll, but they fixed that adding EPOLLONESHOT flag, and recently EPOLLEXCLUSIVE flag for accept(), allowing to implement proper scaling of IO readiness notifications across multiple CPU cores.

The Enlightenment didn’t envision ML-assisted data-guided state-actor-resourced propaganda efforts. The Enlightenment imagined rhetoric and persuasion as something like single combat: one man’s reason pitted against another. It didn’t imagine massively resources organizations throwing millions of dollars at studying quirks of human cognition so as to optimize the short-circuiting of reason itself.

I’m a proponent of Enlightenment values, but the bottom line lessons that we derive from those values were derived in a wildly different context. An Enlightenment for the modern day may very well look different than “old school” Enlightenment. It may very well one day shape up to being open-minded about what socioeconomic datasets you let your pet AI graze on, rather than being foolish enough to ingest slogans from all comers.
Falcon 9 does have engine out capability and that's been proven in the past on CRS-1. In theory even if one of the engines were to rupture the shrapnel should be contained by walls between the engines. Having less engines per core would mean an engine out condition is much harder to recover from as you would lose more thrust. If an engine goes out you don't just lose that single engine, you need to make sure that the thrust vector is still pointed straight at the center of mass. If you don't, then you'll get torque on the vehicle that will make the flight end sooner rather than later. If you plan for engine failure to not kill your primary payload you need to be able to use a combination of thrust vectoring and gimbaling engines and still be able to get the payload to an acceptable orbit with the reduced capacity. More engines means more chances that one of them will fail but less severe consequences when that failure occurs.
You have to start somewhere. Once idea is visualized and internalized on lower dimensions, you move to the next level, where images not needed; however to get to that step 0, where you understand why complex numbers used in AC: lots of folks never bother to explain that it's just the best way to describe rotation.
I remember BeOS was being developed to replace tor MacOS and they had the BeBox, pre-emptive multitasking and even multiprocessor support. Jean-Louis Gassee never got the opportunity.

EDIT: Actually he HAD the opportunity and because he passed it up we have Mac OS X today!!

From Wikipedia:

In 1996, Apple Computer decided to abandon Copland, the project to rewrite and modernize the Macintosh operating system. BeOS had many of the features Apple sought, and around Christmas time they offered to buy Be for $120 million, later raising their bid to $200 million. However, despite estimates of Be's total worth at approximately $80 million,[citation needed] Gassée held out for $275 million, and Apple balked. In a surprise move, Apple went on to purchase NeXT, the company their former co-founder Steve Jobs had earlier left Apple to found, for $429 million, with the high price justified by Apple getting Jobs and his NeXT engineers in tow. NeXTSTEP was used as the basis for their new operating system, Mac OS X.
Clever idea.

Anyones else getting really strong vibes of "author doesn't understand what they're analyzing" from this?

[edit] In particular, they seem to spend a lot of space marveling over marginal utility as if they'd never encountered such a thing, yet fail to mention it by name, and there are gems like: "curiously, the wealthiest Americans hold relatively modest balances in their retirement accounts" for which the author betrays no hint of having used "curiously" rhetorically and doesn't attempt to explain when, to a person like me who knows almost nothing about finance and economics, the reason seems obvious, unless they mean something different by "retirement account" than what I think they do (tax-privileged accounts like IRA and 401k). The word "trust" also does not appear in the article's body text. The apparent "gee, look how wrong these other stats are" at the beginning seems wholly unjustified without further analysis which is absent (i.e. most likely the author didn't notice that the difference is due to some methodological differences between the sources, or in some other way failed to understand what they were comparing, rather than such a source actually being so far off)

In 1999 at a convention in New Orleans, a friend of mine had BeOS 3 or 4 on an x86 and it absolutely was amazing. It booted way faster then Linux or Windows and was quite pretty. A lot of us reminisce for what could have happened with the MacOS. I love OSX. I use it every day and I'm quite happy with it. Still I wonder what the present would be like with a BeOS based system instead.

Chrome OS, 4 GB RAM, 16 GB HD, with Linux and Terminal using HTML, CSS, Javascript, and PHP.

For work, I use Windows 10, but at home... in the past, my primary computer had been a Mac OS, but in 2013, I switched to a Chrome OS and never looked back.

I love the fast loading times. I love the dual Linux boot. I love that I don't have to deal with malware or viruses or even if I click suspicious links.. it doesn't do anything. I bought a few versions of them, but my Chromebook is no longer manufactured.. it is one of those that accept T-Mobile SIMM so I can be anywhere and always have Internet.

It is definitely not for everyone, but it is just a part of life for me and my code.

I find it even way worse when there is a demo for VR or AR.

If I look at the first demo of Micrososft's Hololens, it is all CGI.

By itself it is fair, you just can't make a good demo from first person capture of what the headset displays.

However, the demo was showing a room littered with augmented objects and minecraft blocks and people naturally interacting with them.

The reality of the very tiny cone of vision of Hololens make it feel extremely misleading.

In the end, it is hard to show something else that the vision of what you want to achieve and in Microsoft's case at least, there was a big gap between that and the limitations of the actual product.
