Markets do correct themselves, usually at the expense of the poorest or least powerful.

A hypothetical scenario where this market could self-regulate is 1980s NYC happens again in 2020. Blight and crime everywhere, but wow! Look at how that commerical real estate became more affordable.

The point of government regulation on these sorts of things is to reduce how far the pendulum of capitalism swings. When it moves too far in either direction, it only benefits a few people.

Sometimes it is more inefficient to form consensus outside of a meeting or few I have found, and sometimes can have undesirable side effects such as bad politics arising - I’ve seen this plenty enough.

Hashing things out in a meeting is best after people have let various approaches bake individually - that is not in contradiction to the utility of group meetings.

To be clear, I’m very much against wasting people’s time - getting the right people in a meeting is super important for efficiency on both ends. I’m just highly skeptical that group meetings can be avoided for a lot of efficiency & human reasons.

Is there a television available from any manufacturer where one can install a clean Android (not a rootkit)?
It has.

80 years ago your worked more hours, and you could not slack at work.

Today, you work not only less, but half of the people in the offices I go to don't work their full shift. They go to facebook, send text messages, take long breaks, do their shopping and watch porno (yep), etc.

Also, an hour of work doesn't have the same value.

When your work is moving boxes, an hour is an hour.

But in an office work, there are plenty of opportunities to be busy without being productive. I'd say 30% of the work I see in offices is at best useless, at worst harmful.

So we have more office jobs, which have less hours, during which we work less, said hours being worth less.

And this is very uneven, because a nurse probably works more now than before. But all in all, office jobs are talking over in rich countries.
yep if your first Line is a disallow and you have a text file with a BOM it will be ignored.
Think of it this way, if us humans were technologically capable of taking over their planet, we would very likely do so. Unless we completely edit out past warmongering from our gene pool.

Author of nnn here. I have intentionally kept nnn feature -restricted. The idea is to have the stuff one really needs. And the main goal of nnn is seamless desktop environment integration.

Also, please note that the learning curve for the additional features is quite high. E.g. to batch rename, one would rather use Thunar's integrated simple visual batch file rename mode instead.

I believe once the number of shortcuts cross a certain limit, regular users normally abandon the utility out of their comfort zone.
Why only nonfiction? Some nonfiction is among the worst writing I've read, and some fiction is among the best. Metaphors and other literary devices work well in any writing, and some can be learned best from fiction.

I also strongly disagree with expanding your vocabulary, unless you're a non-native speaker. "Big words" have been shown in studies to make your writing harder to understand and seem more pretentious. Good writers can express themselves in a way that an average person can follow.

Same goes for perfect syntax: language is fluid and evolves, and breaking the stricter rules can be very effective.

7 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started My Freelance Business Pt.2
Sounds like they were burnt already. I can’t fully grasp what is happening here except that messages can be sent in a way they shouldn’t be, but it seems not great. And of course their recent track record is, shall we say, not great either.

Also, personally, while I appreciate the reasons for disclosing privately first (“responsible disclosure” is a bit pejorative for my taste), I don’t think it should be expected and I don’t think companies should retaliate or condemn those who opt not to do it. They’re the ones who made the insecure software and it’s important to keep that fact front and center. So if that is what has happened I am not keen to blame the author.

I’m not willing to play “poor Apple”, again and especially, after their recent security issues. Things seem to have really fallen apart over there, and getting bitchy with this guy isn’t going to do anything to help it.
In addition to the ERB generation and removing all the tracepoints mentioned in the sister comment, there is also a change in the hash function used for Hashmaps. The new one needs roughly half the hashing iterations so it should slightly speed up any application that uses hashtables. (aka pretty much every ruby app)
So, I currently work in Germany, maybe that’s why, but in my personal experience employers are very strict with overtime and only allow it when there is a justification (e.g: big project to get done at the end of the month). I guess because of strict regulations, but you also have the fact that having tired employees results in more sick days used, a higher error rate and mood swings. To be fair, even knowing this people (including myself) do some overtime.

Working more is a short term solution to increase the productivity of a team, but on the long term the benefits of doing so aren’t that obvious.
This exact same thing has been happening to me for 3-4 years.

I’ve realized it is because I am not a good enough leader (yet). That and my friends/cofounders are full of shit - you can’t change anyone but yourself.

I realized that I could do a better job of breaking up work into direct, clear deliverables, setting deadlines, and getting them onboard.

One guy who I really needed (the marketing genius) was just too swept up in another project. I met him for coffee, and when we started talking about the company, I pulled out $1k cash and handed it to him. No strings attached, “just know I truly believe in you.” He hasn’t stopped working since.

That’s exactly Marx’s point when he discusses his theory of Surplus Value. I know that that theory has been “debunked” and “proven” to be false, but I’m just reading now about it in its “Grundrisse” (I had read its Capital I some years ago) and it’s frightening about how right he was about subjects reguarding capitalism way back in the 1850s (in this particular case about capitalists’ dependence on their workers’, well, surplus work; if you look at the issue under this light it makes perfect sense why capitalists would insist on their workers not decreasing the number of hours they spend working). I’m no socialist nor marxist (even though I think he’s one of the best social and political thinkers ever) but if we want to really understand how things reguarding humans work we should not be blind-sided by political allegiances.

I don't know what convoluted patterns you where implementing, but out of the box, the default change detection in angular is performant, esp if you start to leverage observables and the async pipe (to eliminate the need for component onDestroy maintenance tasks). It's a joy to use. Yes Angular provides a lot more options than react or vue, and maybe confusing given the scope of what's possible. However, after the initial learning curve, Angular is a very efficient framework / pattern to work with in a team setting.

If you resort to manual change detection, then it's an obvious sign of needing to refactor your design.
But even technical people sometimes don't know simple acronyms. It doesn't hurt to define them anyway.

I'm surprised by this comment. Having done TDD for many years now I've only ever felt the need for coverage tools on code that wasn't initially TDDed. If you do proper TDD your coverage is always pretty damn close to 100% and you are already well aware of where it isn't because you struggled TDDing in the first place.

I would definitely not say that sqrt(2) is more controversial than sqrt(-1).

With sqrt(2), we define it into existence, because with all the surrounding bits, it makes sense for it to exist.

With sqrt(-1), we define it into existence, because under the assumption that it exists, you can do some calculations that you can't do otherwise, or you can do them more easily, and the results of those calculations happen to be correct.

I’ve hated it since pressing play stopped being necessary to start video playing. Now I have to keep the focus bouncing around or else whatever it’s currently on will start yelling at me. Can’t just stop and look around at what’s on screen. It’s stressful.

[EDIT] in fact, now that I think about it, I almost never just browse the catalogue anymore, while I used to a lot. I open it and go to search ASAP, then close it if I didn't find what I want or see something else interesting in the related results. The auto-playing is annoying enough that it's almost totally driven me away from that part of the interface. I knew I didn't like it but hadn't thought about how it'd affected my behavior, but there it is. Time browsing catalogue from "lots" to "nearly none".

[EDIT EDIT] I might add that full-screen ads you have to scroll past (with no indication that's what you need to do) and other general mucking with the plain grid-layout interface make it wicked confusing for my parents. They just got a Roku solely for Netflix and if it keeps doing that I bet they won't use it very much.

The way I read this is: 1. iOS and macOS allows you to type out an SMS message on your mac, which is delivered via the same mechanisms and channels as regular iMessages to your phone, causing it to relay and send out the SMS on behalf of your mac; 2. it turns out anyone on the internet can send you an iMessage formatted as if it was an SMS relay request sent by your mac to your phone, and your phone will relay SMS out to a third (fourth?) party - and nothing checks to see if the relay request actually came from your mac.

The point of the article is to point out the non-obviousness of some true statement that an outsider to mathematics would take to be obviously true, and thus to demonstrate the necessity of formal (or at least careful) reasoning in mathematics. It's posed as the question of whether the square root of 2 exists, but really, it should be posed as the question of whether there exists a unique real number whose square is 2. Of course, if the square root of 2 didn't exist, we could just define it as an object whose square is 2 and be satisfied like we might for the square root of -1. However, if we did that, our new sqrt(2) wouldn't be a real number.

To answer the better-specified question we need first to define the real numbers and what it means to multiply two real numbers together. This would be done in a real analysis class, after which one could properly prove that sqrt(2) exists, and understand what the proof actually accomplishes.

I believe that the article poses the problem as whether sqrt(2) exists and not as whether sqrt(2) is a unique real number because the article is meant to appeal to the outsider who wouldn't see the point of the quantification, at least, not before reading the article.
I think this point may be one of the most important in all programming. Taking the example from the wikipedia article (i.e. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_slicing#Example ), I think the correct way to program this is with the sum and product loops separate. The only reason to combine them is if it is a bottleneck as you say. Across a code-base there will be very few places were most time is taken and it is there that these optimizations should occur. Everywhere else it should be separate because that optimizes for code clarity. Always engage in cognitive optimizations first and speed/resource/architecture/etc. optimization second (and even then _only_ if necessary).
If it’s an automatic, putting into reverse will change the engine RPM.
