There was an Ercopue based at my local airfield for many years. It was the survivor of three bought postwar by the flying club, but they proved unsuitable for pilot training; not only due to the rudder-aileron linkage but also their inability to spin. Neither was a good basis for pilots moving to more advanced aircraft.

The club used a couple of Austers as a replacement before adopting the Cessna 150, and that was that for the next 50 years!

Early Piper Cubs had the linked rudder-aileron as an option but it was soon abandoned.

I'm resisting the urge to respond flippantly, since I think that's a question that could be answered rigorously and is certainly worth asking.

With that said, since the advent of the RCT, life expectancy has gone up dramatically in the Western world. It would be hard to imagine testing the efficacy of, say, antibiotics or vaccines without testing them against a control in a placebo-controlled, double-blinded way.

Same goes for simple things like washing your hands and administering prophylactic antibiotics during a C-Section, which dramatically improves the odds that a mother will live through complications during child birth. There would be no way to actually know that these were important without studying them vs. the status quo at the time.

Instead, this article claims it's:

2. Subscribers see a movie they otherwise wouldn't pay for. MoviePass eats this cost ($Y).

3. Subscribers' word-of-mouth network effects bring in extra revenue $E that otherwise wouldn't have come in.

4. MoviePass stays alive if $E > $X > $Y.

Well, for a long time, the US meant white (and 90% protestants). All the founding stories and elites are based on them (from the Founding Fathers and the pilgrims to the image of America in culture, Hollywood etc). Heck, there was a fuss that Kennedy was catholic -- and that was in the late 50s. So, it was those English, German, nordic, etc people at the core.

Blacks, of course, had their start as slaves and servants of those whites, and were until the mid-60s discriminated openly against, with full legal coverage for that.

So a large part of the white population has inherited notions that this is their proper place, where others are judging them by the second and third order effects of their old status up to the segregation (e.g. seeing that they're still many uneducated, poor, living in bad areas, over-represented in prison etc. Those whites assume that just because slavery ended -- and they conveniently forget 100+ more years of discrimination-- those blacks should just raise and ascend to middle/rich class, like many immigrants did. After all those immigrants started dirt poor too -- yeah, but those immigrants didn't live in a hostile society forever, they were more easily assimilated, intermarried etc into the white story, and given more chances, especially after WWII).

Because even other whites, like Italians, Jews, Irish, Greeks, and so on, were openly discriminated against for a large part of the 20th century. After they got slowly accepted into white society (and again, not totally), they also adopted their stance towards other races (not totally), as a requirement to be admitted in "polite company".

Asians too, were at the bottom. Japanese Americans, in the early 20th century, were considered barely better than blacks were, working in the worst menial jobs.

So that's what race has to do with anything. You came into the US as a member of a race, found solace and support with your own, and usually hatred or obstacles put your way from the dominant races. And as you were accepted into the mainstream society, you learned to hate those other races they hated too.

That's my understanding of the issue.
They are. A few years ago I had the app installed for one trip. The track on my property is not visible on the heat map.
Here's how I think about it.

You can play the individual notes of a chord on one piano or several, but they still come together to produce the same chorus of frequencies.

The Fourier series representation of a waveform is itself a sum, since trigonometric functions are waveforms as well. Thus, a combination thereof should be commutative because a sum of two sums retains the properties of addition.
That has no effect on MoviePass. As per the article, what’s “interesting” (for certain definitions of interesting) is that MoviePass pays the theatres for the full price of the tickets for each user.
BitStamp and Gemini are the safest, IMO. I'd recommend Kraken too, but they've been really overloaded lately.
So one of the reasons they publish the heat map is that it is a great tool for trail and route discovery. Look at an area where you haven't been before and activities pop right out. Many Strava users are using it this way.

So the concerns of people that need privacy are being balanced against that. Are the 2 options of either not using the activity tracking app or activitating the privacy setting not sufficient for people with safety concerns regarding their location?

It is not correct to say that your displacement quickly becomes useless once you encounter some discrepancy in your map. It remains valid as a good estimate of your position, allowing one to recover from map errors so long as they are not pervasive. This is not a trivial programming exercise, but nor is it as difficult as many other aspects of vehicle automation.

If someone is interested in 1:1 USD crypto assets, I recommend looking into the mechanics of smart-assets such as bitUSD [1] on the Bitshares DEX. These are backed by at least 175% of equivalent value of Bitshares. Thereby these smart-assets achieve a stable 1:1 USD value in a decentralized way [2]. If the value of the collateral of a short position falls below 175%, the position is margin called automatically by the blockchain. Another advantage is that you can trade them within the blockchain without any central party [3]. In my opinion this decentralized bitUSD is much better in comparison to Tether, which is intransparent and centralized. In recent months trading volume really picked up esspecially in bitCNY/BTS, but also for bitUSD/BTS. I would be happy to hear other opinions about these decentralized alternatives.

Disclaimer: I own some bitUSD, bitCNY, BTS, but I am not involved in other ways with the project.

> And causing errors for everything will cause your program to bug out in perfectly valid cases.

Erroring out is admittedly not a panacea to every situation, but the user-facing end of a command line interface is pretty low hanging fruit and a pretty obvious place to error out. The nuclear reactor equivalent wouldn't be the low level control loop, it'd be how the display panels react to operator inputs and sensors - the red lights they turn on, the klaxons they sound, the systems they engage to attempt to put the reactor into a safe state when it thinks it's getting ready to melt down.

And even for that low level control loop, you'd better believe they're thinking very very hard about, and once again intentionally define, how they handle any edge cases they can think of, not just throwing caution to the wind and letting the program's behavior fall where it may.

Even for a rocket, sometimes the best answer is "do nothing - and let the range safety systems blow the damn thing up if that wasn't the right answer."

> Since I've been programming million qps+ systems, I've learned that there's even nothing wrong with almost totally ignoring errors. You'd be surprised how well the following works: before handling a request, note down the time (using the cheap instruction), then every time you leave your method, check the time. If it's over a timeout, increase a counter, log if not logged in the past 10s, and send an empty reply. This makes the developer's job harder, but makes everybody else a lot happier.

Totally ignoring errors leaves you with crashy garbage that does not accomplish your goal of high uptime/availability/not corrupting data in C++ - I'd wager you're dealing with safer languages to type that with a straight face! Even there, though, you probably write code to at least handle null references and other edge cases. You might not trigger fatal assertion dialogs, you might not log to some fancy telemetry system, you might not even log at all - but something to handle error conditions.

And if you're writing that code anyways, you might as well write some logs/telemetry as well to make your devs lives easier. You don't have to force it into the face of your end users, you don't have to make the whole thing explode in the face of adversity, but some opt-in dev tools for yourself tends to be nice.

A fun trick from gamedev: "Assertion" macros that force you to include an error handling statement (often a simple "return;"). Devs get to check out if that null pointer passed to your leaderboards is a systemic bug that broke all leaderboards, gamers get to keep their quest progress instead of the entire game crashing because a server being down or giving a malformed response means the game doesn't know how to handle updating a single leaderboard occasionally.

Best of both worlds. Be greedy - you can have happy users and devs.

Fortunately it really isn't. It is ok, mostly single use stuff that seems to be cheap but that is actually quite expensive if you take into account the material costs and the production quality.

Taking ownership of and responsibility for one's own work, taking pride in it, and seeing the whole project through to completion (rather than being a cog on an assembly line, to mix metaphors) are certainly craftsmanship values.

But for code, "craftsmanship" is problematic. Not just that it changes so quickly (compared with traditional crafts), that ideal skills don't have time to be defined, let alone mastered.

This is caused by the malleable, abstract thought-stuff of code, and it occurs even within the work of the individual coder: as soon as you master something, it should be abstracted into a library or framework - a product. This puts the coder at a higher level, which is a different level, and therefore not yet mastered. Such factoring opportunities are far rarer in traditional, physical crafts.

Productization obsoletes craftsmanship.

Of course, not every task is sufficiently self-contained to be usefully factored out - instead, the code itself is pretty much the best "abstraction" you can do. But can these ad hoc tasks really be mastered either?

> ‘I didn’t know how to do x, so I just had to figure it out.’ This is what I regularly hear from successful founders, whereas ‘I couldn’t find someone to do X, so I had to reconsider whether to pursue it at all’ is a common refrain from unsuccessful founders.

Grit, resourcefulness, improvisation - great! But "figuring it out" is much closer to hacking a solution than achieving craftsmanship-like mastery...
I still remember when movie theaters provided a different experience - and I'm in my late 20's, so it was not that long ago.

Movie theaters became just another living room - people go there chat, comment and eat during the movie just like they were at home. It became such an obnoxious experience, where people are shoved into a room and door is closed.

This goes to say: movie theaters had a lot of distribution costs reduced over the years, and probably even the reform of projectors isn't such a big deal today due to digital distribution.

MoviePass is aiming to give them volume, at a reduced margin - that's how.

I've been in that position.

If you work remote (Portugal) for a UK company then you have to file two tax returns. In each you have to calculate how many days you spend in each country (being at your employer's office for a meeting counts as UK, best to keep any flight ticket receipts).

Both countries will determine their share of your total yearly income. Let's say the UK gets 7%. There is a so called double-taxation-agreement between the countries which guarantees that you aren't taxed twice on anything. At least in theory because the UK tax year is April-April and the agreement says you can't go to court (or what is arbitration?) if the disagreement is below 5%. In my experience the tax returns have been fair. Your local tax office (employee) might not know about all the rules and it's not a usual setup for every tax accountants to be familiar with.

It helps to have a UK tax accountant, even if the split is 99%:1% because as a non-resident (and non-citizen I presume) you can no longer use the UK HMRC online tools yourself.

Realistically if you live and work remote in Portugal your split is >90% in Portugal. It's just more paperwork to file two tax returns. It looks like Brexit won't bring any changes, positive or negative.

I can't answer how the situation is for the US. I'd say more complicated than within the EU.

> Are remote roles then advertised as cost to company or what you will actually get before any said tax?

Companies advertise the gross payout of a remote role in the same country, e.g. a London company assumes you're in Birmingham, not in another country. For the company it's often a special situation for every remote employees in other countries. For example the company might be required to pay directly into the other country's health insurance. With requires a company id number in that country. And that forces them to file taxes, too.

> Is there any metric online calculator for this sort of thing?

With the double-taxation-agreement(s) it's assumed you pay about the same amount of tax, just more paperwork. Of course in Portugal your health insurance might be taxed more or less, or pension payments or unemployment insurance, and the tax brackets for the income tax are different. I've never seen an online calculator for that.

Unless to move within your current company expect employers to strongly suggest contract work instead. For them it's easier to receive a monthly invoice from you. You wouldn't be an employee (could mean no stock options or other benefits).

Hey, thank you for your feedback!

Two-way messaging and call proxying is likely the next big features we'll be rolling out.

We went with the Twilio Connect route initially as a low-risk approach to see if there's an appetite for a something like this. Sadly it has not been a great user experience and we're definitely going to reconsider it (Twilio Connect).

As you might have guessed, we haven't actually decided on pricing yet but I wanted to put something on that page so that people can get a feel for how much it would cost them.

And yeah, the system we were using for auth (Cognito) did not at that time have an adequate 2FA solution, which was why we went with Google. Now that they do, we'll likely use that which would allow people to also signup with a username/password (in addition to Google, etc).

The article quotes AMC about why they're complaining: they worry that if MoviePass fails, people will sour even more on theaters and that could be their death knell (btw, love the use of harrumphed!):

> The largest theater chain in the US instead described MoviePass as as an existential threat. “That price level is unsustainable and only sets up consumers for ultimate disappointment down the road if or when the product can no longer be fulfilled,” the company harrumphed.

(emphasis added)
Is there a list of available extensions somewhere?
The marginal cost to a theater, sure. But, as the 3rd paragraph points out, MoviePass is paying those theaters full price for each ticket. They're losing money hand over fist.

They can't just solve this by squeezing theaters, either. They're already struggling, if not barely surviving. If MoviePass simply tries to strong-arm them into accepting less than full price, without offering some other source of revenue in return, that's a lose-lose strategy for them. If they fail, they lose their ability to supply customers in that market with the service that they signed up for. If they succeed, they risk bankrupting the people who actually supply their customers in that market with the service that they signed up for, and so they still lose it.
