My iMac can’t be upgraded to el cap because it’s not 64bit :) if I recall it was snow leopard the os. Maybe I wrote the wrong model date
Thanks for the link. It's getting hard to find a paper copy of this.
I didn't know go compiler allowed to build without those, thanks.

I've just tried on a go binary that was 2.4MO. After building it with `go build -ldflags=-s .`, it's 1.6MO. After stripping with upx, it's 480ko (and still works, and has panic stack traces).
If you find that something shifts and you are almost always starting the second task but the first task is still winning then you are in a state where the solution became extra load for no benefit.

It's been going on since 2010 in the Costeja case

and they lost the case in 2014 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Spain_v_AEPD_and_Mario_...), and 'interpreted it' as 'we'll just limit the results from Europe'. This was a landmark case, and they just keep losing them.
Yes. Indeed, and as I wrote I can’t blame their choice
I guess it depends where you live. In my country faking IDs is hard as we use biometric documents and it's a very serious crime, so many small time tricksters will not do that. There's a tone of small online merchants, lousy businessmen, crooks, etc. pulling small tricks on people - taking money and not providing anything in return, or providing really bad service, or you order one thing and they send you something else. Since CC payments are still not that common here and it's not uncommon that you wire your money to the merchant and then you're not covered by usual money-back guarantees from the bank and visa, and you need to complain to them and threaten to sue them and then they usually give you money back after a few months, using it meanwhile for their own profit. They do that on purpose. However, if you know better usually you can google them and find people complaining about being tricked, so you can avoid falling in the trap. I'm not talking about big media news, but usually forum posts or tweets and things like that, and you can't find those ever without a help of google. I do this every time I buy something online from a local seller. Since this is EU, if this right to be forgotten becomes a common law they'll be able to completely cover their tracks and I see that as a real-life problem for me and many others here.

Blank is using the word "entrepreneur" more in the skill sense, the mindset sense - an identity. Someone who is given a wider canvas to express creative ideas and to solve problems than the narrow surface areas offered by traditional employers (employers who mostly only seek cookie-cut identities to execute already established company ideas).

I have an engineers understanding of higher maths - overly general and very patchy. Short of taking an undergraduate math course, are there any resources to help me parse math notation? For example, while brushing up on endogeneity/exogeneity, E[B'|X] = 0 completely threw me - I had to search Google for the use cases of a bar/pipe aka latex vert/mid. I usually lose interest in a paper if I get stuck trying to decode the syntax.
Regardless, it's a postrationalisation (or retranslation, perhaps?) by British architects to force some sort of etymological ancestry into the name of the 'movement' they decided to champion.

Hey, hey. Some of us actually bootstrapped our companies, effectively paying people (incl. ourselves) from our own pocket :-)

For some, the risk/independence trade-off doesn't stop at "VC's bitch".
"How do you deal with ignorance? I don’t mean how do you shut ignorance out. Rather, how do you deal with an awareness of what you don’t know, and you don’t know how to know, in dealing with a particular problem?"

I don't really like the rambling tone of the article which never really addresses it's central premise-questions.

Look, systems thinking is about thinking. Thinking is about how you were trained to think. To become a systems thinker, learn how to think better, how to think differently, how to think critically, and how to think logically. Now self-examine, correct problems, and repeat loop.

For example, the thing many elite schools teach that most others don't is the trivium and quadrivium approach to thinking.

Another trick is less tangible. Find brilliant people and learn from them. Learn what they do wrong, not just what they do right.

Finally, as a sysadmin, if you learn to think in a flowchart about just about any problem you will be fine... but the trick to that is to be specific about what the problem is.

I bought Heisenberg's quantum theory paper back from a second hand shop. It's 90 years old and in amazing condition with just sun damage to the spine. The pages are sewn together.
This is a heartfelt list but I think it actually misses the mark for what makes NYC area diners unique, which they definitely are.

The difference is the food. This kind of diner, which as another poster pointed out can be found from central NJ to the Catskills, has an obviously distinct menu from the rest of the country.
You are really making this too complicated. Nobody is looking at going after individual borrowers for a few hundred euro - you don't know anything about them except their country and rating.

The risk is not about "performance" but the company being fraudulent or defaulting, in which can you lose everything.
Traders choose high risk over low risk. Statistically, most day traders end up regretting that choice.

I suspect for a good proportion of entrepreneurs, the financial risks are low - it's either money you can afford to lose, or it's someone else's money, or both - the professional risk is low because a lot of companies will still hire you if you fail, and the personal risks are unknown and/or ignored.

Being a corporate employee is actually riskier. You can be fired at will with little or no safety net, for reasons that have nothing to do with your own professional skills or mistakes.

If google wants to ignore an erasure request for journalistic and public good/interest reasons, yes.

Responsible Journalism can’t ignore stuff like this, so I’m not surprised that the Judge would expect google, after making the journalism case, to demonstrate some of that attention to detail.
This is why humans succeed. We're just never content, there's always something to complain about, to improve. It's always been that way, and it's always been the case that the vast majority left it at complaining and the actual change or progress was initiated by a few individuals.

This blog and the paper it's about remind me a lot of PG's "After Credentials." http://paulgraham.com/credentials.html .

He uses "credentials" the way "resume" is used here. Large companies allocate compensation & power based on credentials, including those you get in-company like seniority and job title. Startups let you succeed and fail based on performance instead of this poxy proxy for it. He goes in depth into the "grades problem" that Mayer seems to exemplify and several commenters here brought up.

I think pg was optimistic about this topic in 2008, and this article relates to his larger vision of a "high-resolution" economy where un-credentialed entrepreneurship plays a larger role, and corporate-bureaucratic credentialism plays a smaller one.

We'll soon have 3-5 trillion dollar companies (unicorn-eating dragons, technically). They're less "old fashioned" in their credentialism, but they're credentialist nonetheless.

I'm with Paul though, we need to figure out ways of having the economy that is less abstract.
What stops them from continuing to interpret it that way?

Edit: So yes, I see https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/respect-european-law-goog...

If you like youtube-dl you should check out mps-youtube (https://github.com/mps-youtube/mps-youtube) which has the ability to use youtuble-dl as the backend I'm pretty sure (i prefer to use the native one personally)

It's also gpl vs youtube-dl's public domain.

I'm sure eventually I'll figure out a way to just do it in emacs. (I'm mostly joking... kinda... maybe.)

"Citation needed", also, it varies a lot between places.
The dislike of exceptions seems more common.

It puzzles me a bit. For numerical software, exceptions work quite well: for performance, all allocations are in the constructors, so the RAII idiom fits naturally.
Using exceptions saves from writing a great deal of error-handling, which easily can have errors itself.

Has anyone seen properly-RAII-ed code where exceptions still have drawbacks ?
Is there still a Commodore USA plant? If not there should be.
Thank you, those details definitely make a case of consistently bad engineering.
>> Where's a valid technological problem? I see the problem being that there's true information out there that is unpleasant to somebody, and that somebody wants to force others to not be able to access that information.

I feel it is basically a cultural issue. Many Europeans (including me) believe that the "right to be forgotten" is real, i.e. we want that right. Company with american cultural roots feels differently, so there's a clash. The main problem is that Google doesn't want to submit to our European culture; which is fine, they can fight in court.
The main problem I see with this reasoning:

The author provides some "extreme" examples of bad ergonomics, and posits there are milder examples of similarly bad ergonomics. But their examples aren't on the scale of "ergonomics", they're on the scale of "weakening language guarantees".

Instead of writing an essay with (intentional) strawman examples and then saying "trust me this could happen with any new ergonomics" is much less persuasive than just bringing up any legitimate concerns on offending ergonomic features. This essay is kind of arguing against no one and everyone at the same time: No one disagrees that automatic unwrapping is a bad idea, but it's ridiculous to say that "I reach more ergonomics by accepting more programs and hoping they do what the author have meant, so I don’t have to bother the author with a compilation error." This isn't arguing against ergonomics, it's arguing against. . . I don't know, making Rust not Rust anymore?

We've all see this meme, it just perpetuates falsehoods about brutalism. However, it pretty much nails (maybe not intentionally) the increasingly common misguided discussion of it.
How do you do that, purely technically? That opens you up to even most basic attacks.
Well, Google already left China.
I think "f(x) = 7" is always equality of the evaluations, and if you want equality of the functions you should write "forall x, f(x) = 7". Admittedly mathematicians are lazy and don't always write that when it's clear from contex, but I don't think the ambiguity is caused by the "=" sign. The expression "f(x) < 7" would be equally (ha) ambiguous.
The requirement that engineers be related to the public interest is wrong. No more than the petroleum engineer is obligated to think of the ecology or energy politics. And when there are big oil spills, I doubt it's extra criticism about engineering obligations that will do the trick, as opposed to billion dollar penalties.

Engineers often don't own priorities. So as long as the people who set company priorities don't care, nobody will either. Moral yelling won't disrupt a business model, and if neither consumers nor legislators punish companies for spilling externalities around, then what do companies care?

If the activity continues to be profitable...

Also, if I were you, I would always look up introductory textbooks before trying to read math literature. The example you gave is conditional probability; any textbook on probability theory would cover it.
I find this comment quite a bit disturbing. There's something wrong when people start to think that you need approval for putting something on the web.

This also sounds like something sinister from the 'well-intentioned' but misguided politician's playbook: Have every piece of content on the web approved beforehand to fight terrorism (or whatever other pretext du jour).
Asian outlets are amazingly versatile: they happily take both European and US plugs. It's a real pleasure not having to bring converter plugs with you. I am still wondering why airports all over the world have not adopted them.

Exceptions, errors and bugs are all different, have different semantics and subsequebtly different outcomes. Also the author is confusing noexcept with nothrow
Why not just use a proper Map object?
To be fair, the C++ noexcept feature isn't as powerful as it could be. There are languages with compile time checked exceptions, personally I prefer that to propagating every exception manually.
I beg to differ. Ms. Mayer is right. She wants high-functioning, compliant drones.

I don't think "=" is being overloaded in this example. The symbols "1", "3" and "*" are, since they're working in Z_4 rather than Z, but equality is just equality.
That's because you've only met vc-backed founders, I.e., founders gambling with other people's money.

Many bootstrapped founders go years paying themselves massively below market to fuel the rocket ship so to speak.

Would you make the same choice if the money came from your own savings or those of close friends and family?

You don't need a "network" to start a business.

In fact, many founders start businesses in industries and niches that, at first, they might have little, to no, connection to.

If you think a network is critical, probably the most effective (time-wise, maybe not so much cost-wise) way to acquire one is to go get an MBA or gain employment in a professional services firm (consulting, banking, accounting, law, etc.) that works in that industry.

Writing an NES Emulator with Rust and WebAssembly
Oof, it’s definitely not like Perkins at all. Perkins feels like a chain, and the food is far worse than most diners I’ve been a regular of over the years.

Good diners have a gestalt that’s difficult to capture by just listing the characteristics of them. Diners are community hubs in a way that places like Perkins can’t typically become (though I won’t deny they have some regulars at least). Take one of my former locals, the somewhat famous Tom’s Restaurant in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. Google Image Search it and tell me if it feels like a Perkins. There’s a ton of history there that you can only feel when you’re in the diner. When Dr. MLK, Jr. was assassinated, there was unrest in the neighborhood. Tom’s had no security gate, and neighbors (of all races according to reports [and the owner at the time]) locked arms and formed a human chain around the restaurant to protect it from damage.

See also this obit of Gus Vlahavas[1], the former owner of Tom’s, who was a face I saw almost every Saturday morning in my early twenties when I lived in the neighborhood.

So anyway, that’s my diner spiel. Tom’s is a pretty famous diner with a lot of history, but there are countless others like it in NYC.

Throwing money away in rental is far, far, far dumber.
In my case I would have had to pay more money for the rental than what I’m paying now with a mortgage.
The difference is that in a couple of years I don’t have to pay anymore and I will own an house that already doubled in price, while if I was renting my rent would have skyrocketed.
And with 50k$ in the bank I probably could have survived for 1 year here.
There were machines like the Commodore C64 - and later to some extent the Amiga as well - that more fully embraced and valued computing in that they booted into an environment which allowed you to create programs right away.

With the C64 in particular there was no real distinction between the operating system and the programming language, the programming language actually WAS the operating system. The machine booted into an empty canvas for you to create something with.

I still find that idea fascinating. Absurdly enough, the closest we've come to this again afterwards is Microsoft Excel. A spreadsheet application today is the closest general purpose computing equivalent to 'an empty canvas everyone can use to create something with right away'.
Hopefully no service will go so far as to blank the screen when a lens is detected by the webcam...

I’m an European and I’m completeley against this kind of censoring. Europe is not homogenous, don’t generalize. And this right to be forgotten is not a “human right” it’s a second chance, a gift, that should be given cautiously. Next time some polititian will want something to be forgotten.
