opengl and SDL are different things.

glfw and SDL are similar things, in that one may use one or the other to do basic operating system tasks like "get a window" which you can then draw to with opengl (or vulkan or whatever)

Even if you were programming in C++ you would have the choice between glfw or SDL for that kind of thing (or directly talking to your operating system's API!), so Go is not adding any confusion here that doesn't exist already.

If he didn't care about money personally, why did he move to Switzerland from Sweden to avoid paying taxes? There is also that weird non-profit cooperative that IKEA masquerades as to avoid paying corporate taxes as well. Whatever can be said about the founder of IKEA, he really knew how to avoid taxes!
I'm not sure. The studies were specifically about long-term effects, so I'd not be sure if a brief stint in school or college sport or occasional matches were already that harmful.

If this is true, maybe an alternative to making the game more "safe" were to think about whether practically living for the sport for 20 years as part of a professional career makes sense.
You're conflating being "turned off" with some mythical form of individualism.

What you mean by individualism is actually a form of group dynamic.

Let's say I was paying out of pocket. (Given my HDHP, I effectively was.) Would that somehow magically change my ability to negotiate the price of those pills?

No.

It's not a "distortion". It's the inherent problem of trying to turn healthcare into a market. The dynamics of service delivery make it impossible for consumes to negotiate or compare prices in the manner necessary to have a functioning market.

I'd also note, that since I've never gone to any other healthcare institution with a broken leg, I have *no way to compare my experience to other providers. This is yet another way in that healthcare does not lend itself to market solutions.
Honestly, looking at the world in a makers/takers dichotomy probably does everyone a disservice. You're a human being doing stuff, they are doing different stuff, woowoo big deal.

There are no real groups, everyone needs everyone.
Well, the same was true for the so heftily discussed Looking Glass extension.

It did not do anything, unless you manually switched on an about:config value. And if you did, then all it did, was flip some random words on webpages upside down.

My wife visited Israel and told me about the concept of Kibbutz. Since then I have been thinking about it and it is such a great concept. May be someone can borrow some aspects of the kibbutz and invent a business model. A big communal kitchen for the neighborhood where professional chefs make food for the community, but costs are kept low by households volunteering in prep work and clean-up. Everyone subscribes to the communal kitchen like an HOA. Would be great for the neighborhood community to better know each other and also access healthy "home cooked" meals.

> The argument that, hypothetically, this is enough money to live on for life is rather specious since few of them actually do so.

But this is not because they don't get enough money and more money would fix it (well, it it could be $trillions then maybe but it is never going to be that). It's because they don't have the right tools (widely understood) to manage their money properly, and their income structure is unlike income structure of many regular people (huge sums for very short period, then nothing - as opposed to much smaller sums over much longer period) and it requires very unobvious actions to make it work. If you have literally millions of dollars in your account, it's very hard not to buy some nice expensive things - even if you know you'd need those millions for decades to come, your brain doesn't really work this way. Some people manage it properly and create brands and side businesses for themselves or just live with reasonable expenses and are ok. Some spend too much and end up broke.
> I think it behooves us (society) to protect these people from making these decision that will in many cases destroy their lives.

OK. Where's the limit? That kind of protecting people from making their own decisions (including objectively bad ones) has always struck me as dystopian.

I think it's a good idea to educate people on the costs of their actions, and that we should find ways to impress on an emotional level how present actions will affect someone's future. I think it's a bad idea for society to make the decision for them, though.
That tells you you should give money, not healthcare. Its a very different proposition!
Forgive me for my ignorance. Lets consider what happens when the workers run the company, not when they have some small input. Experienced management is crucial to correct operation. They folks in the mail room, the factory floor, the loading dock are perhaps not going to have the same motivations as someone trained and charged with deciding the future direction of the business?

If we presuppose educated and trained labor members who are used in management, well then I guess we have that now? In every company everywhere.

Because there is no point in being frugal if you have to pay significant corporate tax. And it helped expand "the empire" he was building, because he could reinvest everything.

He most likely hated wasting money, whether that was on excessive expenses or taxes -- it makes no difference. The money is gone either way.

I have a friend whose grandfather built quite a large retail business (in the billions). He said his grandfather was the same, including the tax avoidance. Grew up poor, made it, and hated wasting money.
Corporate tax profits are pretty silly. Profits are an accounting fiction, the residue left over after paying expenses. It's far too easily controlled - add one fully-owned foreign subsidiary for paying IP licensing fees, and your domestic profits evaporate and turn into foreign ones.

The taxes that do make sense are ones that are much more difficult to avoid:

1. Land-value
2. Sale of registered securities
3. Sales tax or VAT
4. Personal income tax
5. Estate tax

If you stratify by income then the lower end of the income scale have it far worse than equivalent cohorts in many other developed countries.

The general theory that I have is that the Great Migration brought millions of chinese citizens to the city, who neither had bank accounts, credit cards, or phones. The pathway to connecting with friends, businesses, and money or even finding jobs immediately became "Get WeChat and a phone." This lead to a reenforcement cycle with businesses, that they had to offer services on WeChat to get new customers and combined with the injections of cash due to the overall modernization of China, it allowed WeChat to grow even more. And of course, add in the local government blocking foreign competitors.

Thus a large portion of some individuals where basically introduced to modern computing via phones and via chat and businesses started advertising "Chat-first" as well.

I've seen roughly the same in India with WhatsApp, but with a lot less discrete functionality.

Feel free to correct my theory though, it's mostly outside observation...

My retirement is primarly S&P at this time. Of course a 20% correction could always be around the corner especially with the market being so high for so long.

South Korea has a much different demographic than the United States. Samsung plays a large part of the whole countries GDP.

Insolvent retirement is actually a fear of anyone. Primarily because you don't know when you will die. So, how long do you accept the inherent risk and start making your assets more liquid.

I really think that Baby boomers retiring isn't as big as an issue as the consumer credit market and student loan credit. It seems right now that some of the S&P's upside is the fact that its on the backs of people putting their new toys on credit cards and finance plans. I don't think that this can last forever and also the fact that the things they put on them keep on lasting longer and longer.

But, for my retirement I'm pretty long on S&P (I'm only 30 years old). I am not going to pull out at the moment and timing the market for things like that is hard for me to fathom. Taking defensive positions is more for actually Baby Boomers and people that are day trading. As you say that this correction will be triggered by Baby boomers retiring the only thing that actually counters that is medical science. I have a few coworkers in their 70s and they look and act like 50 year olds.

It doesn't with IE10 though. And there's no way to fall back to flex or another column system.

Which means, if you need to support IE10, you need a whole parallel set of styles. There's no graceful degradation when it comes to overall site layout, unless you're willing to serve the single-column mobile version to older browsers.
The lower end you go, the more popular QQ is over WeChat, at least that was the case a few years ago (I'm sure WeChat is over dominating now). WeChat started to become popular firmly among the middle and upper classes as far as I could tell.
There are lots of depositional (and erosive) processes happening. They're all subject to local conditions. But the most common (in no particular order) are: accumulation of plant matter, flood deposits, human-generated organic and building debris, and earthworm casts. You can also see other things, like volcanic activity and wind-blown material, in fewer places.

Yes, but GP never claimed they're equal - instead the claim is that seeing the animal alive and talking to its seller to get more info is a better proxy to judge those things you listed (healthy, sanitary) than Whole Foods' endorsement is, the reliability of which over time depends strongly on their financial status, management ethics and a number of other variables outside your control. The Whole Foods approach is definitely more convenient for the buyer, at the cost of assurance.

Also, it's going to be a lot more difficult for a street-side vendor to cheat you compared to a behemoth like Whole Foods with deep pockets, the latest and greatest preservatives etc at its disposal to make meat look healthy, and a large, existing customer base that implicitly trusts its products.

It's been my experience that people are less open to hacking CentOS/RedHat. It's pretty much you get what you get and changing anything makes it unsupported which defeats the purpose of using an enterprise distribution. That's not my opinion, it's what seems to be the community's opinion when you bring up things like using non-stock kernels.

You're a NFL player. By definition you're among the, what, best 1% of players in college. You, of course, go in planning to have a short career, because you're young and invincible and the best.

So of course after 3 years of living like a monk you have $1.5 million stashed away...contrary to all rational expectations.

Well, less, because after income taxes and because as a young, invincible man among the best to play sports you spend money, maybe you have $300k left. If you're lucky.

But you're now unemployed, so you need healthcare. And the mortgage on your house is at least half that $60k/year because you're a young invincible sports hero.

You've been earning a half million dollars up to this point, so it's a safe bet it'll be very hard to scale your expenses down to $60k/year.

Anyway, I don't know where I'm going with this, except that your expectations of what an NFL player can/will do after being physically tortured for several years (high school, college, NFL) with hidden mental damage and having been a young, invincible man told you're the best of the best and surrounded by people eager to piggyback on your success...may be optimistic.
Not everyone is looking at packet loss to deal with flow control. Wouldn't TCP BBR be an example of the contrary, and at that, a good example, considering it appears to do better than loss-based algorithms? Loss-based algorithms seem very prone to buffer bloat.
Bitcoin will be doing something for a few years. Possibly high volatility which continuously decreases. But with a few peaks of excitement (positive and negative) when breakthroughs or breakdowns are announced.

Then, at some point it will start. At first only small transactions that nobody really notices. Very small hints. People ensuring that their wallet cannot have been hacked. Nobody believes them. Nobody really realizes that large cashouts are commenced.

Then rumours spread that indeed strange transfers exist. Transactions nobody can explain. Even the 7500 coins, believed to be lost on a UK waste dump, are now moving again. The cashouts increase. Rumours about a critical flaw in the concept of bitcoin circulate.

It will take some time. Then the realization sets in. Somebody out there has a quantum computer equipped with enough qbits to break ecdsa-256...

I’ve had many managers; by far the best were former peons that had actually worked on the project/technology they’re driving, or at least used it.

Better still, those that never became 100% managers; more like people still being regularly exposed to the tech so they know firsthand. And since frankly tech is more fun than spreadsheets, this meant fewer meetings and shorter interactions overall, just getting stuff done. It meant using technology to help the project rather than periodically re-explaining everything to somebody and shoehorning it all into someone’s idea of a project plan. It meant that estimates could be meaningfully judged instead of being made-up numbers.
Thats a fair point that asks 'Why did WeChat become the upper/middle city class chat app of choice over QQ and others' and I'd love for someone to weigh in there...

The block increase was looked down upon by many, probably the more technical minded, because we were taught that simple constants in equations (block size of 1,2,8...) are not as important as the exponents. However, a 2MB increase on something that was probably arbitrarily 1MB seemed like a fine middle ground until Lightning Network. Then again, hard forks are no fun.

> This has more to do with the rules than the gloves.

How did you arrive at that conclusion? It's fairly well established that boxing gloves have dramatically increased both number of punches to the head as well as the force of the punch. You don't bare-knuckle punch someone in the skull much, it hurts the person doing the punch not just the one being punched. Gloves change that dramatically, resulting in not just more punches to the head but also harder punches to the head (more weight behind the punch from the gloves themselves if nothing else).

Boxing hasn't changed back to bare-knuckle because it would make the sport more gruesome visually even though it would almost certainly be safer for the participants.

Docker is awesome for making virtual desktop systems. My dev environment + all required IDEs and apps is a docker image running xrdp, x2go, and google remote desktop, and my home directory is mounted as a volume. Works great!

Now when I need to move my dev environment to another computer (travel), I just copy the home dir, docker build, and I have the exact same environment ready to go.

My dev environment is 100% deterministic, backed up to git, and serves as documentation for what I need installed to do my work. If I find I need something else added, I modify the Dockerfile, commit, rebuild and redeploy. If something messes up my environment, destroy and rebuild is only a couple of commands away.

Biofilms do a number of things - they can help promote between-organism signaling that can promote the upregulation of resistance, they can physically protect from antibiotic penetration (one of many resistance mechanisms), and they can potentially change the behavior of the bacteria itself, which will have impacts on the antibiotic's efficacy (for example, bacteriostatic antibiotics are less of a problem if bacteria aren't proliferating anyway).
