If I’m reading this properly I’ve seen this dynamic countless times in middle market firms - founder/owner/CEO’s paying themselves $150k/year salary at companys doing $5m-$30m EBITDA. I.e. they pay themselves way below market because six vs half a dozen and optically having a lower salary is better.
For most folks in the US, understanding a Spanish accent is easier than most Indian accents. This is especially true for lower paid support roles.
Yes.

Often people need more than they initially think of, but if you wake desires on stuff they don't need you just waste time for nothing.
This post is actually more relevant.

Don't forget the franchise systems.
All of this is easy in Common Lisp, which includes interactive compile-time debugging. You can use #., EVAL-WHEN, LOAD-TIME-VALUE, and other things to control evaluation time, and use the same, usual, interactive debugger that you use for runtime code, without any extra infrastructure or scaffolding.

In C++, to debug failed constexpr’s, often, you have to make it a non-constexpr and debug at runtime.
The tasks of physicians don't require unique skills, in the sense that there is no other route to obtaining those skills. What they do requires skill, but often they are skills that could be and are acquired by different means, but are prevented from use by the arbitrary educational structure required by regulation. Physicians too benefit from the artificial benefits of rent seeking.

'Presumably this is because most AirBnB hosts are non professional and don’t manage their availability calendar correctly (I suppose..)'

Most likely this, in my experience. I sometimes see some listings are crazy low prices (compared to similar properties) and would rather check they haven't made a mistake rather than go through the hassle of booking and being rejected.

As an aside to above, crazy low price doesn't always indicate poor quality on AirBnB - more often it's a switched on owner rather than a fool who thinks people are going to pay high-season prices in low-season.
Natural Language Processing Fundamentals in Python
Not to mention that "salary" is taxed higher than "capital gains." Paying oneself a "reasonable salary" (according to the IRS; and such that one is paying full tax on that salary) and taking other distributions at lower capital gains tax rates legally reduces the tax bill and lets one keep more money in one's own pocket.

You, too, can benefit from this scheme. Set up your S-Corp, stop being someone else's employee, and play along in the tax reduction shell game!

I am less skeptical of coins which split from the bitcoin blockchain than coins which are entirely new.

By splitting from the bitcoin blockchain, the authors of said coin have no easy way to 'premine' or get any other kind of 'first in' benefit without it being visible in the transaction history (like this is).

That should help the coin succeed on technical merits alone, rather than PR/marketing stunts and pump and dump schemes which work much better on new coins.

It also prevents 'coin inflation', where value gets split across a potentially infinite number of coins. By splitting from the original blockchain, businesses which don't want to take a risk on which coin/coins will succeed can simply demand equal amounts of every coin (or take payment in one coin, and then diversify into equal amounts of every coin). People who hold coins take no risk if additional coins fork off.
I have built six hackintoshes total:

Mini Dell 9 (Snow Leopard, my first Mac ever)

HP Probook (Lion)

Desktop #1 (Mountain Lion)

Desktop #2 (Mavericks)

Desktop #3 (W7/Yosemite dualboot)

Desktop #4 (W10/Sierra dualboot, my current build and probably the last new build I do for a while since you can now upgrade MacOS on a Hackintosh without doing a complete reinstall)

The best thing you can do when you build one is to look for people who have had successful builds and get the same parts (namely motherboard, CPU, and GPU, with all 3 being equally important). Laptops that are deemed hackintosh-friendly by the community are a safe bet, since you can compare model numbers and get something that is going to be extremely similar parts-wise, if not identical, to what lots of other people are using.

The most time I've ever had to spend on a build was the equivalent of a full workday. With my most recent build, I was never able to get sound working normally, but I did find a workaround with a $5 USB adapter from Amazon.

My most recent build was also the first time I could actually afford to spend $3k+ on a real Mac desktop. Sadly, the options offered by Apple were laughably bad at the time that I built it. I could have spent $4000 and ended up with something worse than what I spent about $1200 on.
Ask HN: Alexa Developer Rewards – has anyone made money?
I'm considering developing an Alexa skill and want to get a feel for what developers are making from their skills, if anything. It would also be nice to know if any of the developers of less-popular skills are receiving payouts from the Developer Rewards program.

Now seems like a good opportunity for Alexa skill development after the number of device sales over the holiday period.

I've read this CNET article: https://www.cnet.com/news/amazon-alexa-economy-echo-speaker-google-assistant-siri/ but am looking for more data.
To offer a counterpoint to this post, I am also a renter of WeWork's at 995 Market. We around 2k/mo for a four-person office and I'm fairly satisfied with this arrangement. The facilities were much worse when the building first opened, but now most of the HVAC and elevator issues seem to have been sorted. I work on the busiest floor (the 2nd) and don't have an issue with noise. Hell, the place is almost never actually at full capacity.
That makes the compiler not complain when your constexpr isn't a valid constexpr.
This looks like it's talking about 1% in terms of income, or perhaps more specifically, earned income ("wages"). It's not talking about the 1% with respect to accumulated wealth. I would suspect there's some overlap, but the two aren't the same. Much of the "1% wrt accumulated wealth" group wouldn't have "wages" (if I'm understanding this correctly).
No, they aren't "certainly" hit pieces, nor are they fake news.

Your narrative has some flaws. Startup events have been happening in India since past 10 years or so. Ever since Google won the war with Microsoft.

Flipkart was founded in 2007. Ola soon after. This H1B visa issue is more of past 2-3 year issue. Admittedly it will have some impact. But definitely not the narrative you paint.
The TLDR is it takes a lot of time and effort to get it running. I've spent a long time getting OSX to work on a laptop and at various times in virtual machines.

It's a lot of time and effort and takes a certain masochism.
The article states that a large portion of the 1% (at least in America) is comprised of the working rich.

Whether an estate tax is needed or not is irrelevant to the material of the article.
There are a lot of chat apps, I can't think of many with successful business models attached. Things like Skype and Hangouts are huge, userbase-wise, but dubiously valuable to the companies which bankroll them with profits elsewhere. I guess Skype has banner ads? I can't imagine Discord makes money yet, their subscription plan doesn't seem like a good value, I don't know why anyone would pay it.

There are too many chat apps already, also. Most of us want less chat apps to talk to all our friends, not more.
What if the value add of off shore had nothing to do with the work done, but with the threat of replacement. Not that you could actually do the replacement, but the threat of it could result in reduction in wage growth that more than made up the waste of using off shore outsourcing.

Don't think I've seen this idea explored before. Maybe the numbers show it is completely idiotic (I did basically come up with it in the shower). Guess its my new conspiracy theory of the month.
Increasing worker productivity has always lead to fulfilling larger a demand.

What is missing from all these discussions is that human wanting is essential infinite. The more productive you can be at making something, the more it will be taken for granted and a new thing wanted.

Demand is infinite. Work is created to supply it. There is no amount of labour that will ever exhaust it.

All automation does is increase the space of "taken for granted products". The infinite space of potential products/services for human beings to supply still exists.

80% of the UK economy is already services from people to other people.
I appreciate this suggestion. When reading this I thought "Why do I care if the 1% are working or rentiers?" The outcome, being a growing class of marginalized people who lack equality of income, opportunity, and meaning is the same whether these people are rentiers or not.

I'm reminded of this excerpt from a recent article on Dollar General stores that was posted to HN.

"Essentially what the dollar stores are betting on in a large way is that we are going to have a permanent underclass in America. It’s based on the concept that the jobs went away, and the jobs are never coming back, and that things aren’t going to get better in any of these places."

In my experience, mid-market firms are financed by smaller local or regional banks with whom the owners have built relationships. Certain industries, such as any where the firm has government receivables, are bankable almost immediately, but others are not. The latter give us the stories — that never seem to caution the listener to mind survivor bias — of would-be entrepreneurs scratching together high-risk initial financing with credit cards, borrowing from family, or second mortgages. None of these involve going to Wall Street.

The way to winning over business owners is to make a business case. In Thomas J. Stanley’s The Millionaire Next Door, he makes the case that the typical American millionaire gets there by starting a small business and then playing good defense, that is limiting outflows by not living extravagantly as the stereotypical wealthy in popular literature. This defensive mindset also plays in operation of their firms. Business owners deal constantly with people who want more: suppliers, competitors, regulators, the tax man, employees, spouses, kids, brothers-in-law. The noise floor is high.

Rising above the noise floor means doing the hard work of showing your proposed model actually works and is not merely yet another visit from the good-idea fairy. Business owners value relationships. Building relationships takes hard work. Connect motivated people from difficult backgrounds — from which many business owners themselves come — with mentors who will see and nurture the spark. Demonstrate that you are helping to provide a hand up, not a handout.

My point was that any branching strategy will necessarily introduce an integration delay. Instead of merging to master every hour or so, the delay is measured in days. The longer the gaps between merges the larger the change set, the greater the risk and impact of merge conflicts.

And, yes, I have! SourceSafe, CVS, StarTeam, Subversion, Perforce, ClearCase, PVCS, Mercurial and Git in (roughly) chronological order by my reckoning. Thanks for asking.
Or if they don't have any fingers.
Thanks, that's useful information.

What do you think about making the source code available to paying customers under a non-Open-Source, no-redistribution license that still allows for studying and adjusting the code to meet integration needs or build for other platforms/library versions? Kinda like Gitlab does with the Enterprise variants.
Which is what the movie "The Founder" drives home near the end (besides that Ray Kroc screwed over the McDonald brothers). It's a real estate company that owns buildings that are occupied by fast food burger restaurants. How well those restaurants do doesn't really matter all that much because the value of the real estate is most likely going to increase over time. If the restaurant does well, it's just a bonus.

Any time I see an article focusing on income inequality instead of wealth inequality, I know I'm about to get my dose of invisible hand worship for the day. NYT statistic was that wealthiest 1% holds more than the bottom 90% combined.

Top 1% wealth (roughly $10M and up)
https://dqydj.com/net-worth-brackets-wealth-brackets-one-per...

Top 1% income (roughly $400K and up)
https://dqydj.com/united-states-household-income-brackets-pe...

Per Wikipedia, top 0.12% for household income is around $1.6M. Nothing to sneeze at, but we all know many people make much more.

The distribution in the tail is so extreme that singling out top 1% to top 0.1% of incomes seems like cherry-picking to focus on groups that provide services and exclude groups that make money with money.
Yes, I'm on Mac OS so that's likely it, and the server I was trying had no X anyway. Thanks for investigating.

"Replacing libsodium. Libhydrogen focuses on being small and is for environments where libsodium cannot be used."
Agreed, but it definitely could be argued that the pendulum has swung way to the other side, and that many diagnoses and procedures that could be performed by someone with 1 or 2 years of education are performed at a substantially higher cost and inconvenience by doctors.

Maybe an equivalent to the lawyer's "bar exam" without the degree requirement?

The best thing about the Netflix culture deck linked in that article is how much "bullshit" it contains. The part about "adequate performance gets a generous severance" is especially amusing, since most measures of performance are also bullshit. It's also "we only work with the best" re-worded.
>> if you're arguing against that, then you're part of the problem

> That's in incredibly dangerous and irresponsible thing to write.

Also quite ironic, in context of an article advising to "make sure that everyone’s voice is heard, and that important warnings don’t get lost because someone didn’t feel safe saying so". Because this is how the warnings get silenced.
Sorry, it does not work like that (through 2017 anyway). If you own a pass through (s-Corp/LLC etc) distributions are untaxed, however all earnings of the firm are taxed at your personal tax rate. It’s not to say that wage and firm earnings are exactly the same, but pretty close.

This article has a random sprinkling of numbers that really do not give you the big picture. Here is some context about the outsourcing industry in India. Good stats to know (assuming the media is right):

1. the entire IT outsourcing industry is ~$150 billion large and employs ~3.9 million people.

2. the top 7 largest IT companies employ ~1.3 million people

3. I cannot calculate the exact revenue of the top 7 companies because they are part of larger groups (e.g.: TCS, Wipro). But the Top IT companies headcount and revenue

a) Infosys: ~200,000 employees ($10 billion revenue)

b) Wipro: ~180,000 employees ($7.7 billion)

c) TCS: ~390,000 employees ($17.5 billion)

d) Capgemini: ~200,000 employees (I don't know)

e) CTS: ~260,000 employees ($13.5 billion)

f) Tech Mahindra: ~120,000 lakh employees ($4 billion)

Stories like these come around routinely in the April-June timeframe (every year!) around appraisal time. This '56000' number is simply a random quote 5% of the entire workforce of the top 7 companies. I have seen different media outlets report the numbers as 28,000 this year to 200,000 in 3 years. Honestly, they don't know nor do I.

FWIW, I run an outsourcing testing services firm in India. I am too small to feel market trends. However, I have been reading and talking and interviewing several candidates across India. I can tell you that the tension has been palpable for the last 8 months or so. Many senior folks are feeling a quiet sense of desperation. I don't know if the media sentiment started the tension or if the ground reality is indeed going to force layoffs of senior employees.
>But for the vaguely-described RSS bug, their only suggestion is: "Do not use RSS feeds in Thunderbird for now. There are critical security problems, threatening your entire communication."

I'm surprised "Jokes or stories" and "Sexual remarks" had a similar proportion.
Self-reported. Not a random population. The numbers are higher because most men (the ones who refused to take part) are intelligent enough to not denounce themselves to the NYT for serious sexual offences. Not reliable, and may do more harm than good, because it maximizes minor harassment, but minimizes the numbers of serious harassment.

A theoretical physics FAQ
Interesting, but a bit light on the terminal support. I've been using https://terminal.sexy/ which supports way more terminals. Notably, for me, Guake, XFCE Terminal, and for when I'm on Windows, PuTTY.

I was expecting to find this within the `themer-terminal` repo, but instead it's just some mac thing.
I'm not sure this is really necessary. gcc and Apple's clang optimize the factorial code without "constexpr" and the fibonacci code might be an extreme case avoided by reasonable defaults for the numerous optimization parameters that can be adjusted:

max-inline-recursive-depth
max-inline-recursive-depth-auto
Specifies the maximum recursion depth used for recursive inlining.
For functions declared inline, --param max-inline-recursive-depth is taken into
account. For functions not declared inline, recursive inlining happens only when
-finline-functions (included in -O3) is enabled and --param
max-inline-recursive-depth-auto is used. The default value is 8.

Excellent point. Some franchise terms require significant net worth and have six-figure fees, but that is not the case across the board. I have heard that Chick-fil-A’s franchise fee is only $5,000 but also that they are very selective.

The article refers to digitisation and automation as one of the reasons for the layoffs.

Can someone please explain what processes those two terms involve. Does automation mean writing Unix shell scripts and setting it up under Cron. But that has been done since very long time. I see don't get what digitisation and automation mean.
Yes, and that's because they're challenging Piketty's hypothesis that capital gains are outperforming wages, so they don't care about accumulated wealth (that could have been accumulated through either method).
