That's usually not true. The strongest unions happen to be in the strongest jobs. This happens so because the strongest unions need to have the biggest funds, and the biggest funds come from the better paid workers.

Cause and effect mix the other way around in public opinion. This is why the weakest and most populous workers actually dont have strong unions, because there's not enough money to build one.
Java just pushes the complexity into the user's code. For example, a friend of mine once gushed to me about Java IDEs - with one click of a button, a hundred lines of boilerplate are automatically added!

I replied a good language shouldn't need boilerplate code automatically inserted.
You would also need crypto value to be much more stable for that to happen but I also agree with the idea.
Interesting! Does Eastman Kodak only sell movie film?
if you are buying a house you are probably a member of a family with two adults and hopefully two incomes. That makes a $1M more realistic.

At least that is the way it works here in Stockholm where $1M houses frequently are bought by people with way lower salary than 180k, often not even 180k combined in the family. However, prices here are very inflated and rates are super low.

You mean it sucks because one can customize it? I remember when I got the iPhone 3gs back then and was surprised you couldn't set a background picture.

Oh and these days iOS is still very locked down. So it just works because you are not allowed to do much. (Like having an app like Tasker for example, or choosing if your USB port on your phone should be used for storage, charging only, or even charging other devices).
I don't know about that. It's pretty old history now, but you might want to learn about what happened at NUMMI versus most other American manufacturing plants at the time (early 80's). Plenty of blame to go around, with management, union rules, and workers, but there are vivid tales of workers doing things resulted in very bad quality. [1]

Today, it seems pretty clear that police unions in some cities are a big blocker when it comes to meaningful reforms.

Which is not to say I'm anti-union, but there are some cautionary tales. It's mixed. Scorched-earth tactics (on either side) are not the answer.

Doctors in the US are unionized, for the economical sense of the word, and it is one of the reasons of high cost of health care and under-supply.

Software and the internet, thankfully, is generally libertarian because thats how the internet generally behaves. Otherwise, the U.S. would bar foreigners from practicing software engineering, and limit the amount of people that can have a software license.

> It originally contrasted with narrowband

I agree with your wider point, but the antonym of broadband in networking context is actually baseband.

'Narrowband' is a good example of a word that came into use to fill a perceived gap in the lexicon. A gap which didn't really exist, but the word became more widely used because it was not challenged by people who should know better.

Another example is 'bandwidth' which has so many colloquial meanings now that it is unusable in any general context. It's just a collection of letters that can mean anything you want. Also 'hacker'.

This is not the evolution of languge, it is its destruction. Overloading words with so many contrary or ambiguous meanings that language fails at its primary purpose of conveying meaning and intent.
I completely agree, but It wouldn't be a major Android update without the changing of the way settings looks.

Part of the problem here is that OO sits nicely with references, but C++ (like C) is a value based language. This can be seen clearly in most of the design of the standard library -- it's all value semantics, and as such relatively simple and obvious to use (so long as you're not trying to cram OO into it).

A line like

if ( a == b )

In C++ is pretty obvious what it does. It'll always be a value comparison, and if a and b are pointers to objects you are comparing the object identities and not their values. The meaning is exactly the same in Java of course, but the fact you're dealing with pointers is hidden so you generate a lot of confusion about the correct use of `==` and `.equals`.

The author certainly isn't wrong about a culture of complexity in certain elements, but, to be hones, I see that everywhere else too and it needs to be fought wherever it occurs.
Author here. A few years back, I wrote an article about the issues that you're asking about. Since the article still comes up as the #1 result of Google search for "C++ rvalue references", I believe it's ok for me to recommend it here:

I wish argentina had at-will employement. Making it hard to fire is one of the most terrible things you can do in the workforce. An eternal origin of unemployment, disinvestment and poor performance.
Aw, dude! I'm assuming you're a little younger sorry if I'm off the mark, video stores had a culture all their own that is just gone now, never to return, and it's a shame. There was a certain magic about them that is just lost with time now. They were everywhere - franchise chain stores (Blockbuster, Family Video, Hollywood Video, etc.), as well as neighborhood mom & pop shops [these could be hit or miss, but when you found a good one you were virtually a lifetime customer]. Hell, you used to be able to rent tapes at the grocery store! Even more important than that, they were a cultural and societal staple. Everyone went to the video store; you met up with friends there (some even had arcades in them!), you ran into people you hadn't seen in a while there [this was before cell phones, so that mattered a lot], you looked forward to going there on friday/saturday afternoon to rent a tape to watch that night. It was a great way to discover new movies you hadn't heard of before or obscure titles that didn't have budgets for TV or cinema ads -- this is why box art was important and distributors fought over retail/rental shelf space. A lot of this stuff is all but irrelevant these days.

You have to keep in mind this was before everything went digital/streaming. 800x600 desktop resolution on your PC was considered higher end, so your typical video file was something like 480x320 or less and the quality was crap (think MPEG-1, old school QuickTime, and gasp RealVideo). It didn't matter much for movies anyway, there wasn't bandwidth or storage space like we have now. I still remember the first time I saw a movie on DVD it was an honest Holy Shit! moment. Sorta-high bitrate MPEG-2 with a good 5.1 surround sound audio track on disc in your home was nothing short of revolutionary.

> If you were in a perfect one, or you had something that somehow cut off the connection between the brain and the body, but you can still think, are you no longer conscious?

I think, if such an unlikely scenario were possible, that disturbing insanity would result, and eventually it would degrade into something that does not resemble human consciousness.

The reality check provided by sensory input stabilizes and fosters consciousness.

Perhaps it is possible to design a conscious machine that would be more robust against sensory deprivation, but humans certainly don't have that characteristic. A good example of this is the very damaging effects of solitary isolation prison cells.
Often for task and project management software the churn is high and customer lifetime short.
I'm tired of all the "How can they let this happen?!?!" as if we don't know how capitalism works.

"Political will" is just code for financial incentive.

The fact that this problem isn't being solved, tells us very clearly that this isn't actually a problem for the majority of the city's income.

The tech industry is strong enough that people will still show up to collect their $120k salaries, even if they have to step over people and feces to do that.

Obviously tourism must not be a big income for the city. Which is why no one cares what "Mr. Hotel owner" has to say.

SF will continue to become a tech dystopia, because no one comes to San Francisco to stay or to make a home or a community. Everyone is passing through, there to make their fortune in tech, and then leave. No one has kids there. That's why this isn't solved. San Francisco is not a community. Until it is, this problem will never go away.

The recent shady "election" of the new mayor - a white male tech VC, would seem to support this. Apparently a black woman who was willing to go along with the rich white men wasn't enough.
Can you elaborate on this? I don't follow.

Speaking from afar, but I've noticed that Americans tend to feel very strongly about state rights and independence, as well as the opportunity for someone to profit somewhere. Wouldn't that work against what you're saying?

I do think it makes complete sense though - reinventing the wheel in each state is crazy.

I wonder if any state agency has ever hired and built a solution internally, proven its effectiveness, and then somehow sold it to other states?
Is it even worth it? It's like buying a car in a city where average commute time is two hours. Diminishing returns, not worth it to have a car under those conditions.

Maybe a different region would have better balance, even at lower pay. I know people who own a newly constructed, large house with a garden, two cars, and raise kids in Romania on a meagre salary compared to yours. In the Bay area most of the profit and hard work goes to pay the exorbitant housing prices - just making the landlords and constructors rich.

Reminds me of Andrew Ng who expects "70-90 hours a week" from his employees, and is talking up "importance of velocity" with his new fund. That's 15 hours of work per day and one day off per week. Crazy! Why bother to do that, it would be a disaster for balanced life. (https://techcrunch.com/2018/01/30/andrew-ng-officially-launc...)

> Your naïve faith in high school economics fails to address a key question of our times: as technology races ahead of social ability to adapt and integrate it, how will people manage? Leave behind Ayn Rand and look to history.

We don’t need to look to Rome for that. It’s happened a dozen times in the United States. This isn’t a new scenario. Though it certainly is simple to call anything that disagrees with your understanding of the world “high school economics.”

And you can quit it with the Ayn Rand strawman. Just because someone is discussing economics doesn’t mean they’re Randian any more than it makes you a Marxist.

Definitely have suprising powers. I once sent a wire payment in USD from my Hong Kong company’s HSBC business bank account directly to my China company’s bank inside China, where my bank in China would convert it to renminbi. I was shocked to find out the bank wire was somehow held up in NYC! Blew my mind. Nothing to do with the USA in this transaction, except the USD. The reason the wire was held up? I had wrote the word “Grenade” in the notes field of the bank wire. The payment was a materials deposit for an action camera mount product we make at my factory called “Grenade Grip”. I regularly write the product name in the notes field for my accountants. Mistake.
Yes, the criterion is the one the site guidelines state: using Hacker News "primarily for political or ideological battle". For more on what that means and why it's worded that way, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16185062.

In practice there's a huge gap between users who come to HN to gratify intellectual curiosity, who in the course of being interested in a bunch of things occasionally comment on a political topic, versus accounts that only are interested in divisive flammable issues and use HN to prosecute their views on them.

I guess it depends on your perspective. Is performance a technical challenge? IMHO I say yes.

64-bit enables a number of other things. It has a better ABI for argument passing. It allows more extensive use of tagged pointers (the ObjC runtime can fit many common 11-char or shorter strings in a single tagged pointer). It's also a chance to make any other ABI-breaking changes you want to make in the runtime.

If you're forward looking you might say that mobile devices will exceed the 2GB/4GB limit soon enough so why not make the change now rather than waiting for it to become a problem? You'd get all the performance benefits listed above and a future-proof foundation on which to build.
I would be amazed if I thought differently. I still adore my htc dream.

> Unions are one of the very few proven ways to address inequality

Inequality between middle class and upper class, maybe. Inequality between lower class and middle class? It blasts it out of proportion.

Unions create a lot of unemployment, and thus poverty.

Finally but not least, add wealth in that graph and see what happens.
> To be fair, that's a failing with those unions, and in a sense part of the systemic problems with US unions; plenty of unions elsewhere saw automation as inevitable and got training for their members to find jobs in other areas.

Do you think this is because the Unions are different, or perhaps maybe the people/culture are different?
If you sell them to yourself for $20, you have your original $100, plus the $10 * 5 dollars in ads, for a total of $150. Because $150 is less than $200, this means that diverting the ads to yourself loses you money.

"30k spending per person" does not mean each homeless person gets 30k. This money goes to all the workers who go through papers, work at shelters, office people to write papers to try to get more money from the federal government, and all sorts of other bureaucracy.

Why would HTC sell 2000 engineers to Google if they plan to still make smartphones? This move suggests HTC management felt they would be unable to produce $1.1B value with those engineers (which should be a warning to investors).
No, I really think there is a double standard for corporations versus unions.

Witness the complaint about unions pushing back on automation -- yet how many companies and corporate cartels have attempted to quash, or even outlaw, new technology they saw as a threat to their revenue streams? Why do we not simply say that we live in a greed-driven system, and this is the consequence, and try to address the root of it? Instead we get endless "well unions do some bad things" comments, imposing a far higher standard of perfection than we'd ever apply to a corporation.
Only 2000 people are moving from HTC to Google, according to the article. HTC will then leave the phone market. I expect Google to continue following Apple's lead and remove more features. They also have to try to stop their IP from leaking out, and go through some culture shock working in Taiwan.

This is an opportunity for investors to hire the other HTC staff who refuse to join Google for ideological reasons (open designs, repairability) or who just didn't get hired. There's probably a few other people from iFixit, WebOS, Fairphone hanging around here.

This is due to the nav buttons being constantly visible in most apps, an option to hide them and only spring up when required would be perfect. It's not the end of the world but it's one of those things that once you notice it you can't forget it.

It might be a little gauche to link to your own blog, but my thoughts on figuring out the impostor "higher purpose" mission statements:
http://colinschimmelfing.com/blog/the-hierarchy-of-jobs/

We can see that individuals value humanistic goals in the tech industry, and companies find it important to claim they fulfill these goals. As Mike Judge shows, often the claim is shallow – only put forth to gain status.

To judge the claim for a company suggesting positive social good, there’s an easy test: would the company claim a positive social good if there were no recruiting, PR, or status gains to come of it? If the answer is no, the company is simply behaving as the mimicking actor and the claim should be ignored. A company who truly has that positive social good as a mission will, simply in stating their reason for existence, claim the social good. As examples: OPower, Stellar, Khan Academy, Mosaic, SpaceX, etc. (note that I don’t work for nor own stock in any of these companies)

Really, their mission could be: "making work more efficient by helping all teams work together effortlessly" or "saving time for humans by making collaboration easier". Those would be decent without the puff.
I'm pointing out that the demand for housing in any city is elastic; if you house the current 6,000 homeless without addressing the systemic problems, more arrive to take their place and you're back where you started.

Rich European countries which have solved this problem don't do it by putting all the homeless in Paris or Berlin. They're distributed throughout urban, suburban, and rural areas of the country, which is what we need to do.
I like your interpretation better than mine.
