Why must the CEO of Google be the most highly-paid position for Google to run well? The point is that the pay for participating in self-interested capitalist endeavors leads to outsize rewards compared to those dedicated to serving society. (Including thousands of career civil servants, since leadership positions have their own trappings.) If we value those who serve society, perhaps we should pay them commensurate with how much we value them -- and get better results in the bargain.

"if level of tolerance to short-term disruption is strongly positively correlated to general 'ability'"

That is seriously odd assumption. It sounds like confusing "personality trait that appeals to me on emotional level" with ability.

Actually Bitcoin didn't have any risk in the start. It was an experiment in which anybody who was interested in making the cypherpunk dream a reality could sumbit code even anonymously and take part in mining with just running a node.

> Are programs written in C# not native, even on Windows?

C# always had AOT compilation to native code via NGEN.

Just that few people bother to use it, because it only allows dynamic linking, the optimizer is tailored for fast startup time and requires an extra effort with application signing.

Windows 8 apps were always AOT compiled on the store via a "cloud compiler", based on Bartok from Singularity project. Using a format known as MDIL.

Windows 10 apps are always AOT compiled via .NET Native, which shares the backend with Visual C++.

Mono always supported AOT compilation and it is the way Xamarin apps are deployed on iDevices.
Oh, this is about the history of calligraphy, typography, alphabets and character sets surrounding the (swedish) letter (which resembles an) “A” with a ring (non)diacritic, and not about the ångström as a unit of measurement.

Social movements in life
Social movements are informal groups of people driven by a common ideology and have set goals that they aim at achieving. Social or political issues drive most of the social movements in the world. All social movements have a common characteristic in that they are all involved in a conflict with the opposing side, and they have the same identity. Their aim is based on the type of a social movement and what they are fighting for. The difference between social movements and special interest groups is that social movements are always in the opposing side with the current system and engage in several types of protest that may at time's turn violent. The earliest known social movements were formed in the mid 18th century in England and were aimed at bringing political and economic changes.

When you write things down, you're investing in your future. It's silly to use software that isn't making that same investment.

After trying Evernote, wikis, org-mode, and essentially everything else I could find, I gave up and tried building my own system for notes. Plain timestamped markdown files linked together. Edited with vim and a few bash scripts, rendered with a custom deployment of Gollum. All in a git repo.
It's... wonderful. Surprisingly easy. Fast. If there's a feature I wish it had, I can write a quick bash script to implement it. If Gollum stops being maintained, I can use whatever the next best markdown renderer is. Markdown isn't going away anytime soon.

It's liberating to be in control. I find myself more eager to write things down. I'm surprised more people don't do the same.

I think perhaps it's worth thinking about the view of natural selection which historically has created a system of participants programmed to maximize their share of the gene pool. I think it's at least a passable analogue for a system of corporations that are each designed to maximize profit.

The interesting bit is that what appear to be rigid "paperclip maximizers" (I love this term) evolve secondary behaviors. Emotions, religions, moral codes, and government. This leads to the question that if the system of corporations is a secondary behavior from the natural selection pressures applied to humans, while simultaneously being an analogue of that very system, will we see similar tertiary behaviors emerge from this system? Will corporations develop religion, moral codes and governance?

One can arguably point to standards bodies as a form of governance (more nebulously, one could suggest that corporations have repurposed human governance systems as a tool for governance that serves corporations). My best way of framing moral codes are as being comprised of a behavior that in isolation gives the self less advantage, but through cooperation becomes mutually beneficial to the participants - something that prevents harm of the self by not harming others. This sounds a lot like what we would label "anticompetitive behavior"!

I had a lot of fun following this train of thought, but the analogue seems to get extremely flimsy beyond this point. Morals are relative, they evolve as society changes, and the whole process seems much more accelerated when it comes to corporations that predicting anything or providing suggestions through this approach seems silly. I still think it's a fun analogue though, and it does make me curious what sorts of unintuitive behaviors a corporate world could give rise to in the future.

I'm not sure if it's just the people I work with, or if chase has a problem because credit card ownership has changed. I don't use credit cards in the same way as parents where I'd have 1 card then make all of my charges on it.

For example: instead of making the csr my only card, I have the amazon card for 5% back on a.com. I have the csr for 3% on restaurants/travel which covers lunch/dinner + traveling and the 2.5% usaa card for everything else. Online bill payment and auto debit has really made it less annoying to have multiple cards.

The bad part right now for these cards is that if they slash their rewards, they'll just lose all of their customers because we have no real loyalty to them.

> First, the foreign students cross-subsidize the locals' education. There are large fixed costs to running a university and these students pay way above their marginal costs. So now the universities have fewer resources; hence cutting the newspaper funding etc.

Well any out-of-state student would do that not just international ones. There is a deeper problem there in that these universities perhaps simply can't afford to have 10 foreign languages or gyms or sports clubs. Using international students to keep those going seems a bit of a round-about way. Since many of those are state schools, maybe seeing why the states have cut funding to the schools is more useful.

> Second, the foreign students increase the schools' reputations and can collaborate with the faculty.

Not really. Undergraduate students are minimally involved in research. (You did read the article to sew that it talks primarily about undergraduate students, right?).

> In my own PhD program, the productivity of the Americans was much lower than the foreigners. That productivity led to discoveries that benefit everyone.

As I mentioned, the article doesn't talk much about PhDs and is mostly focused on international students. In my own undergraduate program, international students were about average or worse than American ones. The few that I knew were struggling with English and others were "struggling" with academic honesty. I won't mention which country they are from but I think people here might figure it out. Many were in school because their wealthy parents had money to send them more than say being chosen for their academic performance.

> Third, immigration: some of the foreign students would have wound up staying.

Some would have and some do. But it's not a program geared for permanent residence. There was an option to do a short internship / co-op with that visa after graduation but that was about it.

> Educated people who work hard and are ambitious enough to go overseas and stay are good for the country.

As I said, from what I have seen in this case it is mostly students who come from wealthy families. Do we need more students from wealthy international families in US? I don't know, maybe. I would rather it be based on merit, so perhaps refocus that effort towards graduate students in certain fields or who manage to do exceptionally well in their studies.

In general it seems to me you have conflated and mixed undergraduate and graduate international student groups. For the purpose of discussion there are quite distinct in how admission, tuition, research funding and self-selection works. It seems your arguments apply more to graduate students even though the article is mostly about undergraduates. You made good points in general, but for clarity, you might want to update your comment mentioning the difference.

> No they are not, because .Net uses an intermediate representation, being Windows and Microsoft confers no magic "native"-ness.

So AS/400 applications are not native, given that they use an intermediate representation with a kernel level JIT?

Same applies to other mainframes that use a micro-coded CPU to execute the portable binaries using intermediate representation on their executables.

This includes C and C++ on those platforms, by the way.

Java is AOT compiled to native code on installation on Android 5 and 6.

There are AOT compilers available for Java and C#, just as there are interpreters for C and C++.

It depends. There was a reason back in the day that if you were a telco you have phone switches from from 2 providers,ie a DMSxxx and ESSxxx. Another example would be how the big providers got screwed by the in ability of Cisco to get their GSR working right without a few forklift upgrades (really they were moved with a forklift). This opened the path for Juniper. For a long time the telcos moved to have one router from each so a nasty bug in one would not take them down. In a properly tooled setup you should be able to account for the load characteristics between AMD and Intel. Having 2 is safer then one.

Google is pushing both PowerCPU development as well as ARM. They seem to be able to sort for this just fine. You can write tools to sort the differences. You cannot write tools to fix major HW issue.

Anyway my 2 cents based on experience and history for whatever the comments of a random person on the intertubes is worth.
MobileCoin might be an amazing user experience, but the odds of Facebook choosing to implement an external blockchain as a currency is pretty much nil as far as I'm concerned.

> Setting up a CI system yourself is maybe a bit harder than using a hosted solution. But if the provider decides to change their offering, you are in big trouble.

I love how GitLab does it. It owns the parts watching your branches for commits and passing instructions to your machine, but the instructions themselves are a clean YAML file in the root of your repo, so if at any point you want to pack things and switch over to another provider it’s all right there in plain text.

Manual setup looked a bit daunting initially but turned out to be not that hard to wrap your head around and totally worth it, simple configuration with one runner has worked like a charm for months. Between ease of setup and zero lock-in this seems to strike a pretty good balance.
But i think that's what the collecting societies of each country are for. Not every artist/composer is a member of one though, so that's probably where those come from.

What can happen is, that a rights holders music is played in another country so that this countries collecting society has to transfer the money to the respective collecting society in his country.
The collecting society then splits up the money for that song among all rights holders (labels, composers, songwriters, etc.). That's where small percentages and sub-cent calculations come from.

At least that's how it works in germany. The GEMA (german collecting society for composers and such) collects money for songs being played in germany. The rights holder may not be a member of the GEMA and as such the money will be transfered to the collecting society of the member.
At least that's my understanding.
