If your team is < 10 people, stop worrying about it and just talk to everyone regularly and openly. The two most important parts of talking though is listening and objective openness (don't be closed off). And when I say listening, don't just hear what someone says, act upon it or tell them why you aren't (even if you take a few days to research and get back to them). This solves 99% of issues when the company is small. And this should be encouraged across the team to happen, e.g. person to person, not just founder to team. BTW -- this works well with advisors and investors too, if they tell you something, research, act and respond so they know even if you went a different direction you did so informed.

> 10 < 25 people and really anything over 15ish people gets harder to manage so you need some formality to it, e.g. schedule and documentation. But don't try to make some great review/feedback system initially. Just set aside more time, talk to people, listen, keep good notes and formalize the process with documentation and scheduled follow up. This is also the time that if you haven't already you should expand the loop where there isn't just one person doing most of the feedback cycle.

> 25 < 50, you absolutely need some formalization and you need to delegate feedback cycles to team leads, or trusted individuals and the founders need to work closely with those leads to make sure they are staying in the loop. For every team < ~10 people have the team lead follow the first version, just with solid documentation and follow up that they are taking care of their teams. If you are a founder/director etc level start reducing your daily influence with team activities so that the team starts to depend more on the lead, this isn't because you are pulling away or inaccessible, but you need to give space for the team to form around the immediate leadership and not just you. If you don't do this, you will fail as a leader and you will cause all your direct reports to fail over time.

> 50 you should by now have hired at least one (possibly a few) dedicated HR staff who can help formalize the process more and grow it sustainably. Usually, I'd recommend this around 35-40 people as you just can't deal with everyone's issues. But over 50 it is really mandatory as the laws generally change as to your employee responsibilities etc.

This is different than some of the other answers, but hopefully gives some insight. Also if you follow this generally the culture revolves around solid constant, quality feedback so it will just be instilled from very early on. Which is really helpful as you grow.

One last point, this works great with knowledge workers and most business types. If you are leading manufacturing, day labor or unions than things change as the personalities and needs are different. Doesn't make either better or worse, you just have to respect that they are different and have different needs.
Interesting... it seems that the smaller alt coins may be used for transactions, but theres a ton of them, and trying to support transactions in all of them may be difficult. Thanks for your thoughts.
>If someone breaks in to your online bank account, they can steal some money - at best it's insured and you lose nothing, at worst a single person's life savings are gone.

You're framing this completely wrong. Hackers have the ability to break into much more than just "a single person's life savings".

It's pretty easy to determine that the situation in the 'west' is different.

How many times in discussions on Chinese or Russian subversion or suppression of internal debate and freedom do you see posts trying to justify it or neutralize criticism using 'whatabout' tactics, aiming to change the discussion by pointing the finger somewhere else? Every time, because the behaviour can't be justified or supported on it's own terms. Whataboutism is pretty much the only justification available.

How many times in stories on US, British, etc internet surveillance or erosion of freedoms do you see someone say 'whatabout' another country doing the same thing and trying to justify our loss of freedoms based on other country's behaviour? Never. It just doesn't happen because American, British and other democratic societies look to their own democratic institutions, processes and freedoms to resolve these issues. We might look at loss of freedom elsewhere as a warning, but never as a justification that it's ok for us to lose them too. There are actual things we can do to protect our rights, so there's no need to wring our hands and say actually it's ok because somebody else is doing it. We don't give a fig what somebody else is doing, when it comes to protecting our own right and values, and nor should anyone else.

That's an easy rule of thumb for telling if a society is generally free or not.
It would be a good explenation- if the rest of the world would be stuck in the same drug downwardspiral. But it seems they are not.

QBasic was my first programming experience.

Back in 2008 I bought a computer for 50 uruguayan pesos (around 2 dollars), Pentium MMX and 32MB of ram. It didn't boot W98 because the hard drive was corrupted.

It did load MsDOS and I found Qbasic using the help command.

I didn't have internet so I used to go to the internet cafe with a floppy disk and download tons of tutorials in plain text to read with EDIT.EXE

Now I've been working as a software developer for almost five years and love it, all thanks to QBasic and that old cheap computer.

I was expecting more description of the data workflow.

I tested a bit as it’s not completely described and it seems like you don’t lose data, but can’t write unless you upgrade again.
So, the only problem here is none of the examples actually handle the errors. Chains of partial functions, using any language I've ever tried, are easy when you don't have to do anything about the null value. The article demonstrates this in multiple languages. In practice, the hell only starts when you have to send control flow somewhere else or show the user a different response for every failed partial. I haven't used monads intentionally, can they do anything special about the real world case of having to handle every error separately?
Wouldn't a cell phone video of the vote seller casting their ballot suffice as proof to the buyer?

Unless you are a buying stock at a public offering, most "stock investing" is not investing into a company. The company doesn't benefit from the money you are "investing". If you bought $1 million shares of Google. Google doesn't get that money or use it for its operations.

Any viehicle of useful size de-orbiting, even from a low orbit, needs a heat shield to reach the surface intact, right? And this thing needs to be going faster than orbital speed at the surface - I don't see how that could work out without it becoming a fireball.

At one point, I was thinking that perhaps a de-orbiting vehicle needs a heat shield only because it has to fall several tens of miles before it encounters enough atmosphere to matter, during which time it accelerates, but that cannot make a difference, because at that altitude, a ballistic vehicle being launched needs to be going at least as fast as the re-entering vehicle in order to end up in the same orbit.

Conversations has had frequent complaints about battery life issues, which to my knowledge have always been closed with some variation of "just ask about this on the chat" and/or "this is not something that can be fixed". In the past, I've noticed it doesn't work well for my battery life personally as well (so it's not just rumour).

For something that needs to run on a phone, battery life is one of the most important factors to make something actually useful. While the GUI looks great and I don't remember any usability warts, I don't think it's fair to recommend something with an issue this big.

Well, it depends on what you believe is the culprit, but the easy scape goats are long debunked at this point.

We will some day realize that the psychological situation of income inequality (or other socioeconomic equivalences) is the root of drug epidemics.

The sooner that happens, the better, because neither incarceration or isolated treatment can address this.

Everyone grows up with different experiences and I think being raised different would have delayed where I’m at with this but I have worried for a long time that particular increases of drug use cannot happen purely due to availability of the substance. It doesn’t make sense in the narratives I’ve witnessed, mainly referring to what motivates mass drug use, accounting for lushes and party behavior as constants.

I have never been a drug user but have observed my friends use and have lost a few of them when I was younger.

It simply doesn’t happen in healthy social environments.

I am a motivated and passionate person. My life always has goals and ideas floating around. When I was younger, sometimes my friends didn’t keep up, or something like that. Every time I have lost a friend to drugs(death or otherwise), it was preceded by me acknowledging they no longer felt the hope and excitement for the future we had once shared. In retrospect, it usually correlated with something in their life they were ashamed of, a harsh reality or realization that they didn’t have certain opportunities. It could be small but still have big repercussions. I have felt shame for thinking I may have overwhelmed them with my dreaming, higher-than-average curiosity or motivation for constructive activities. Although I am that weirdo, it doesn’t usually send people to drug use. What does is usually private and disguised in shame.

The monster here is loss of hope.

I have learned this argument usually comes across as either fleeting or ideological. It’s very hard to put into words to someone with another comprehension of the problem, and witnessing one or two people face substance abuse doesn’t bring it home either. I developed this view from watching how crowds of people use drugs. When you isolate the party people and the lushes, you are left with people who simply feel like they don’t count.
Why does it require that the server has password logins enabled? This seems contrary to every "secure your server" guide I've seen and opens your server up to the password guessing game. It seems like a cool product, but that's a huge non-starter.

The target server will need to have password based authentication enabled in sshd. When this is setup for the first time, Cockpit will ensure that the user connected to primary server has the same password on the secondary server.
The Luna outpost is an insane waste of money, especially considering they want to build it with SLS and Orion.

There is no practical reason for a moon space station. It makes neither scientific nor engineering sense.

If they want to do lunar exploration doing direct surface to surface is far more efficient. SpaceX architecture is way, way cheaper then DSG and friends and far better to support any form of lunar exploration.
I don’t consider your example of error handling superior to the Maybe monad. It’s more explicit and arguably simpler, but has more boilerplate and is less safe.
Waiting outside on a cold night for hours[1] is more than just "slightly inconvenient," particularly if you have kids and work.

Now there poor attempt at a Tu Quoque fallacy if I ever saw one. It's both incorrect and meaningless.

Some people may take that view, but I don't. It's not great, but good enough for deployment and easily qualifies as autopilot.

Really, aircraft is autopilot not designed to be used without pilots. Yet, it's still good enough to both be used significantly more than 50% of the time on commercial flights and increase overall safety. So even a highway only car autopilots that's plenty to be useful. Now, if you mean it's not designed to be level 4 automation then sure, it's got a steering wheel unlike several buses in production.

There's a difference between paying a $10 hourly wage and contributing to a pool of resources.

I'm guessing my own contribution would be far less than $10 per hour if this were tax financed.

If you and I can agree to each pay $5/h, maybe let's start there and find other people who also want to pay? Wouldn't that be better?

Barring a real-time clearance system (as I believe most stores still accepting checks tend to use), a check is just basically an IOU with a promise that there's enough money in your banking account to cover it. Especially in a rental situation, I'm not sure that the lack of an address is a huge red flag--after all, the person is probably between addresses. But a complete blank check without even a name on it? Yeah, that's a red flag given that, even if you've just opened up a new account, today you can get personalized checks within a few days if not on the spot.
Don't worry, that's also under research:

I didn't get any indication from the article that these Blue Orchard bee's are being cross-bred, or genetically engineered. They're just being mass-bred in a controlled manner to get the volume necessary to start supplementing Honey Bee use.

Edit: It seems that the Afro/Euro hybrid bees are hardier and produce way more honey than the European bees as well, so I would expect to see more of them being used commercially.
I tried to transact in BTC and BCH to donate to a s/w charity. The fees exceeded the value of the donation I had in mind. The protocol was not good, I sat behind a 15min time window which didn't complete in time. The representation (a URl like model) was not clear, i was scared the element behind the URL wasn't actually a BTC address, couldn't check quickly. Overall, I'd say transacting is hard.

Which is a shame, because if its not useful to transact small sums, its only really relevant to transact big sums. And that means its future really is IBM and FinTech, not mediating outcomes for small sum people like me. (I'm not interested in the speculative quality)

There are signals the charity sector is looking to use it to get rid of some graft in the emergency-intervention situation where a lot of freeloaders can pile in as middlemen in a transaction chain. That would be really good.
That said, a manufacturer could still use an Orange or Nano Pi to integrate. Simply disable the onboard Wi-Fi and include a certified USB Wi-Fi adapter.
Thank you for the great feedback. I understand your point. The idea was to have a dashboard for this UI Kit: https://www.creative-tim.com/product/now-ui-kit as there were a lot of requests from the users. It wasn't meant to be 100% unique as we had to follow the rules of the Invision's design: https://www.invisionapp.com/now. If you want to give some examples of things that you consider unique and could make this dashboard better, I'm open to this, we are looking to improve it.
I think white space is often misunderstood.

People tend to see it as a void that could be put to better use. We shouldn’t think of it as a void, though. We should think of it as a separator. It’s gestalt theory: objects that are close to each other appear connected. When you remove too much white space, groups of elements become less distinct, and cognitive load increases.

>A fictional world is readily graspable

I've been reading "Sapiens" and one of the recurring themes is the idea humanity's success is built on the ability to create useful fictions to bind large groups to a goal or cause. I think we are struggling with that in the first world as we give up religion without a clear replacement fiction that reassures people someone will be there if they get sick and when they die. In addition, we are discovering some groups have (for want of a better term) weaponized fiction to achieve their goals.

I liked it all a lot better when that last sentence lived entirely in the fiction of people like Warren Ellis and not in reality.

EDIT: Sapiens, not Simians.
Interestingly, I don't miss or crave my phone at all when I don't have it on me. But I do find myself searching for excuses to check it when I do.
I thinks its unfair to expect one partner to do a larger part of the day to day activity that would normally spread between the both of you.

IMHO: You may need to step down as a partner or reduce your salary. That way your partner can use the extra funds to hire an office manager to take on the role that you cannot fulfill being remote. Otherwise you will need to physically move with business.

I've seen businesses fail because of burn out quickly. One partner doesn't feel that other isn't picking up the slack. The partner that feels neglected either stopping doing what they are doing to push the other person take responsibility. Or they just walk away, cut their loses, and call it a life lesson for everyone.
> That way lies nihilism

Sounds exhausting.
Not Inaccurate. There's also the correlation between our current form of capitalism and external slavery, environmental destruction, and economic inequality. Just because it boosts a system that you like doesn't make it sustainable.
Sorry, I know I'm reading into your statement, but your reaction is very stereotypical 'liberal', aka 'thinks too much'. I do agree with you in that people do have biases, but there are several levels to this, perhaps. The biases you speak of are surface level ones, but 'gut' things are at a deeper level, at least how I'd define things.

I'd say there is a learning curve associated with 'gut' instincts. If your parents were good ones, you'd have acquired such knowledge earlier than I ever did, which to say was much later than ideal... But once you have dealt with enough assholes and full blown psychopaths, your 'gut' is better at picking up the subtle clues.

Then you can start seeing thru the surface impressions easier - I'd say the people you speak of just hadn't had enough adversity in their life yet - and from a BS New Age point of view, that's what allowed this guy to install himself in their lives, to provide them with some life lesson they needed to go through. I'm certainly not blaming the victim - it's just that if they don't take away a useful life lesson then they're missing out on extracting some value from the experience.

I empathize with the people in the article immensely. I'd just say they were too trusting, too 'liberal' (in all the associated stereotypes) and their 'gut' was dumb/inexperienced. The psychopaths/Machiavellians I've had to deal with were not involved in my life as much as a co-tenant would be, but they were close enough. And I consciously picked up little clues to their essential nature over time, but kept not integrating them into a larger more comprehensive picture till it all became a crisis. It is acting on those clues fast enough that is key, and that requires learning through experience.

tldr; there are book smarts and there are street smarts. Both have utility and to rely heavily on one and discount the other is unwise. Street smarts involve training your gut to deal with the jackasses and worse you will encounter in life.

I don't know if this is worth mentioning, but a lambda expression datum can be coerce-d into a function:
