Even in Atlanta, we're seeing pretty insane rent increases. It's hard to find anything under 1000. I pay just a tiny bit less than that just to rent a room in someone's house.
> With C you are usually delivering a compiled binary executable. If they did add a feature to C, you could use the new compiler with the new feature on your local development environment. It wouldn't matter at all to the place you deployed it, as long as you make a compatible binary.

You're mistaken. C has added features to its standard library before. It allows you to detect the presence of this feature at compile-time with a preprocessor definition. But if your compiler supports the feature and your target does not, in most cases you will get a fatal error regarding symbol resolution from the loader.

This problem is remarkably similar to the one faced by Python developers. The difference is that Python's philosophy includes a statement regarding "batteries included", so its standard library has taken on more frequent additions than C's.

In order to portably target multiple environments, you will occasionally need to handle ImportError (disable a product feature or have a fallback implementation) or (in C, e.g.) provide a fallback implementation designated as "weak". Or forego portability, capitalize on the feature, and raise the requirements for your target.
Interesting read, thanks for posting, but I think you can do better. I've been playing with Fastly and VCL recently and you could write your whole app in VCL and have it served right from the CDN. 25 million requests would cost about $20 for that. If you include the API keys in the log output and batch-process that each day/hour/whatever to keep usage stats, that would remove the need for Dynamo? You'd then keep a table of banned API keys and update that through the Fastly API dynamically.

Just a thought. Still, $150 p/m is not bad!
Just because it isn't fun for you doesn't mean it isn't fun for others. Fun, humour, and social interactions in general are very subjective. There's clearly people that do enjoy that kind of humour or else Reddit wouldn't be where it is today considering it's basically always been like what you described.

We're not talking about where revenue comes from, we're talking about what products engineers are working on. The vast majority of engineering effort at Google is on products like the ones I mentioned, not ads, and it's insulting to Jeff Dean and others to imply that they're not doing anything other than serving up ads. Search, Maps, Android, etc., are all incredibly useful and technically challenging products, and Jeff Dean's code and inventions are used in all of them.

Did you read the biography? This point is specifically addressed by the author and the author also refused Musk the control he wanted e.g. in terms of a right of reply to all points in the book. Some of the book is very vivid in its portrayal of Musk’a flaws and others’ opinions of him.
> Plus, you can bridge to IRC

I tried this recently. I really wanted it to work. However, it was a complete mess, mainly frequent (and prolonged) disconnects on the bridge. For folks who primarily use Matrix but would like to occasionally pop into IRC channels, it's probably OK. For folks that need a reliable IRC connection, don't bother.

That's how I read this as well. It does appear that a simple DNS proxy would accomplish the same goal without all the encryption. Are we missing something?
For me the main draw of Mastodon is that my interactions with it aren't being increasingly optimized for revenue.

There are no ads in my feed, and no opaque algorithm determining what I see.

Data security is a concern of mine, but I don't think Mastodon is any more or less vulnerable to attacks than any other software.
I've heard that there's a fair amount of variability. Obviously at least part of our audit team were lunatics.
the mistaken belief that you can deduce intent via inferred behaviors

Maybe this is just a phrasing error, however the idea of inferred behavior doesn't make sense. If you view an action that is measurable (buy x, go to y) then it is an explicit behavior.

Further, the concept you seem to be arguing against is the economic concept of revealed preferences. If I understand your argument, it is that it is impossible to derive a users preference from observing the users behavior. This is contrary to decades of empirical research in economics and cognitive science proving that you can rank preferences based on such behavioral profiling.

Your example builds a strawman by introducing a value judgement into the example (evil vs good) that is unmeasurable. It conflates some kind of moral state with a series of actions without any way to empirically value them.

The reality is that most people cannot accurately state what their true preferences actually are, and thus your actions reveal more about your future behavior than your "intentions" do. This is a classic debate in philosophy of the mind.
> on issues like this, the main issue is apathy

Is it? Or is it the notion that if you scream about something you don't like enough, someone else will fix it, through legislation, so you can stop worrying about it? And, of course, that legislation will work perfectly and never be abused or radically reinterpreted a generation down the line.

I'm for the belief that if you don't like something then don't partake in it - short of it being something being physically forced on you.

How to scale your company culture
There's not a debtor/creditor relationship in a private retail transaction, at least in the USA. It is an exchange of value, not an extension of credit.

A retail store is perfectly permitted to have a "no cash accepted" policy. Even the public transit here generally has a "no cash" policy for fares.
This is a frequent pain in the .Net world. I find the solution pretty simple though. Setup your dev environment to only target the oldest platform version you need to run on. If you ever get a new client with even older platform versions, dial back the version in your environment and see what breaks.

I guess though, I have the benefit of checked types. When using this same strategy with an interpreted language, you're definitely leaning hard on your test coverage.
Seconded, with part 2. I didn’t major in compsci, so I had never learned how computers work in any deep sense, and this was really eye opening. It takes you through how to build a cpu and then how a succession of binary instructions produces interesting behavior, and then how you can layer abstractions on top, like assembly language and stack operations, and then how to compile code down to those binary instructions and what has to happen at the OS level for this code to run.

It’s also opened my eyes to how much more I still have to learn!

You can do parts 1 and 2 at the same time, btw.
> I believe that subs are isolated enough that if you don't want to engage with any particular sub's content you wouldn't have to. Otherwise the whole thing becomes somewhat skewed towards a certain set of opinions and could even be deemed to be totalitarian.

But that's the thing, they are in theory, but in practice, you see subreddits leaking into others. Even with strict no-brigading rules, it's too easy to click on a link from /r/subredditdrama, for instance, and then start participating. And sometimes people with the same opinion just go to other subreddits to antagonize/troll people; you see this more with the more extremely-sided subreddits.
I suspect, but certainly can't prove, that there are two things going on... first that in order to get reasonably true answers to questions you have to provide a fair in-kind trade with the user. If you want their home location you could ask for it, in which case a lot of people will seem to come from zipcode 12345, or you can offer a solution to a problem (or preferably a set of problems) they may have that is easily solved with their correct zipcode such as "lists of X within a mile of your house." That's a bit harder to pull off when it's something like "what political party are you?" for anyone who isn't rabidly political.
The second suspicion that I have is that this is a result of a larger conceit of the tech industry that they are an enlightened minority who either know or can know better than the masses (tech isn't unique in this conceit, alas).

Most people that I know that went from nothing to somewhere between 1 and 5 million managed to lose most of it again. The ones who ended up with 5 million plus tended to have done ok or much better than just 'ok'.

I suspect that it has to do with whether or not the original windfall was due to luck or if there was an actual strategy behind it.

The vending machine would be a more equitable host by telling Dave that it was saving the last Tab for Carol, and offer the alternatives. Dave could accept or decline. Maybe Dave wants the Tab because he's fetching it for Carole.
I would hope so, considering they probably would be sharing patient personal information for relevant ads.
Basically, yes. I don't see that being any different to any other online service though.

As others have said you can backup your data, which is a good rule of thumb everywhere.
Unfortunately, the owner of alpacamybags.com wants ~$2,500, which is a little too far out of this site's allotted budget at the moment. I've tried to negotiate other amounts. Will look into it in the future for sure, but right now I think it's fine. Most people that find us don't type the URL anyways.

Just snagged travelalpaca.com, though. Thanks for the tip!
As we can plainly see, most people in the world don't give a shit about privacy.

The moat can also become irrelevant overnight, see MySpace for reference.

What do people care about? You'll be the next Zuck once you figure it out, but it sure ain't privacy.
Your (attempted) solution illustrates the potential dangers of data collection.

There are many companies with some timestamped location data about you: cell phone company, email or social media, credit card company, etc.

Just a bit of that data combined with Smartrip data would de-identify you as the owner of that card, and all of your anonymity about your metro trips is lost. For example, three or four trips where you used a cell phone at either end of the trip; credit card purchases in different locations; maps directions on your phone; or so on.

This is not far from plausible. I could see the DC Metro naively choosing to sell "de-identified" data to third parties, who can also purchase e.g. credit card data.
Looks like namecheap wants $2,300 for alpacamybags.com

Hope it takes off. Such an awesome name and simple format.
Is there an update to that list where you are excluding 12 other cities?
Wow. No comments on how crazy this viewpoint is? They're not just talking about eliminating cash, they want to nationalize all private banking. They're arguing that a monopoly of the state is better than a "monopoly" of four different companies, that private firms cannot be trusted to manage financial transactions despite the massive history proving they can, and that the state is somehow going to be able to handle these types of transactions despite all the evidence against this claim. For example, if only the state was allowed to process financial transactions, we never would have gotten credit/debit cards. If they had nationalized after this development, we would not have NFC payments or chips in cards. The state is anti-innovation (think about how slowly government infrastructure has developed) and anti-consumer (imagine the DMV in charge of your money). This whole notion of "the state knows everything" and "only the state cares about you" seems completely dystopian.
Haha, Amazon asked me for my SATs way back when too. What dopes.

With super fast SSDs, does anyone really need 32GB of RAM?

I don't even shut down my multiple JetBrains IDEs and gazillion browser tabs or bloated Slack when I take a break and pin the CPU with Ableton Live and a bunch of soft synths on my MBP. Nothing skips a beat.

Is anyone seriously running into issues with only 16GB of RAM?
Their parents are negligent. It's not just a money problem.
The volatility goes the other way too - Also 60% of Americans will be in the top 20% of income earners for at least two years during their lives, and almost 40% will spend at least two years in the top 10%.
If not centered one’ll quickly get psych issues. And if one doesn’t eat and sleep well they quickly fall off center. Best to know how to survive on basics and prioritize health, realize mind > matter.

For ex. I’ve learned to eat only Huel, oranges, dates, potatos, coffee, and a bag of chips or vegan cookie each day for the past 4-5mo. Grew up poor on frozen/fast food, moved to SF and became a foodie for a couple years, started using Blue Apron/Plated to learn cooking, later switched to Vegge option, and now have above diet. I am a foodie when I go out, but instead of 2x daily it’s more like quarterly. Wide spectrum, common denominator is addiction to vivid clean feeling from fresh food and 16/8 intermittent fasting.

I also find that sleeping on the floor is most comfortable now with low body fat (inspired by Korean friends in Uni), so I’ve put my bed against a wall ~3mo ago and doubled my 350sqft premium SF space.

The biggest hazard is emotional health. Friends and ex-colleagues use the time to point out the flaws that have led to and caused the event, in their view. Talking about it with others in general terms sounds like complaining and that’s why people don’t talk about it openly, much. And it is a waste of time, perhaps beyond once to get it off the chest. All one can do is look forward with a new plan in response to the change... lean into it.

Mind > matter, poverty can be illuminating with right priorities.

> The inability to predict human behavior and other external events is entirely because of lack of complete knowledge about the system.

That is clearly not the case. You cannot predict the contents of someone's research paper about quantum physics no matter how much foreknowledge you have using only classical physics. That is a macro scale event that cannot be modeled using only classical physics. That is proof that classical physics can not model macro scale events with perfect accuracy.

> But an opinion poll this month revealed unease among Swedes, with almost seven out of 10 saying they wanted to keep the option to use cash, while just 25% wanted a completely cashless society

Sigh. I guess that is one way to show that result. Unless they can claim that the numbers have been higher for cashless, then I doubt any claim can be made that people are turning against it.

That isn't to say that cashlessness doesn't have any issues, but I find it amazing that as many as a quarter of us Swedes actually want to strive towards a fully cashless society.

Yes, exactly. Also, the other problem is that the sites rolled into these teens' definition of "the internet" is probably no greater than about 10-12 websites, most (if not all) being social media - Facebook, Instragram, Twitter, Snapchat, Tumblr, Pinterest, Youtube, and Reddit. Those 8 sites right there probably account for 97% of their entire "internet". It basically boils down to, "you're doing it wrong!"
You get the same problem on current systems if you try to use C++17 features. For instance, template arg deduction only works on Clang 5, but most Ubuntu 16 systems have Clang 3.8.

Erich Fromm - The Art of Loving, Escape from Freedom, To Have or To Be
I feel this author is basically making arguments about terminology to deflect attention away from the basic issues. He's also wrong in substance, because I've read many many other articles about this that describe the specifics. Anyone who pays a tiny amount of attention understands they didn't hack facebook, but instead took advantage of facebook's ridiculous ability to harvest someone's friend graph and their friends, and easily develop a giant network by doing nothing more than putting out a stupid survey app. But this is still a horrible invasion of people's privacy, and it demonstrated how badly facebook treat's people's information.

Will this guy next write an article titled "grindr is doing people a favor by selling heir hiv status"? Or they weren't "selling it"? In any case, it's not persuasive.
Amazon could be that machine, if we could rely on them to (at the customer's option) properly delete the customer's credit card number and delivery address when the package is delivered.
I didn't present it as my attitude, which any careful reader would note. The person I was responding to seemed confused based on the question they asked.

I don't post on Reddit and you should keep your asinine suggestions to yourself. Either you got to this website an hour ago or are you are too much of a coward to stand by your convictions and accusations.
And it is ok, that you skip it, the difference on pay gap is men having far worse life for those few extra bucks. It is not everything about the money and your path is correct. We (men) are doing it wrong and we are the idiots. The extra money is just not worth it, but we are pushed into craving for social status (which in most cases equals to income, car, house,...) due to the fact that potential mates (females) are searching for such mans (statistically womans are marrying to mens with ~30% higher income than they have) . And idiotically as it sounds, the "equality" will just make both genders work harder, spending life at workplace. Working for "8%" less money than you will get for your peak capabilities and you will have far better life. It is just not worth it.

Money is NOT everything.
Just a humorous thought: imagine getting all of their resumes for a software engineer position. How do you even interview these people or even choose one for that matter?
