Yep - that was a huge deal for me (wanting workshop/garage space). Apart from that, renters rights can really vary around the world, in Australia it's pretty bad. Depending on the landlord, you can get fairly frequent inspections with as little as 24 hours notice, generally can't have pets, are often on a 6 or 12 month lease and can't always renew (if the landlord sells and the new owners don't want to keep you on...

I much prefer owning, and my interest is $100 less per week than what the previous owners rented my place out for before I bought it. If the value of the house keeps up with inflation by the time I sell I'll be very happy. (We don't have capital gains tax on primary residences either, or land tax so that's nice).
As nice as the tool and the insights it provides, the pain point is manually entering all the transactions. It is 2018, and we still dont have a easy way of exporting our transactions from the bank in a standard way. Every bank wants to use their own way of exporting it.

I was seriously considering using Plaid API[1] to build an app that would download my transactions automatically, categorise it, and prompt me to only verify entries it classified with low-confidence. But, Plaid API at the time did not support all my bank accounts, which made the effort moot.

Another concern of mine is exporting such personal data to a 3rd party. Ideally, an open source tool that strictly runs on my laptop would be the best!

Whereas the truth is that the only way to bring rent and home prices down where demand outstrips supply and space is limited is to build higher.
ISP here: bread racks and minitower PCs are still a common thing in low end hosting. In many cheap facilities the limitation is total amount of electricity and cooling available within a low cost facilities budget, so there would be no way to densely populate 44U cabinets with 1U servers anyhow.
I wasn't expecting housing. That was a bit surprising.

As a related example, the Helsinki Metropolitan Area Libraries offer various services including makers spaces with 3D printers: http://www.helmet.fi/en-US/Libraries_and_services/Library_Ma...

One can reserve the printers online, see their status and so on.

Libraries are a wonderful existing resource to that can be leveraged to build a platform for non-profit communal activities.
Different kinds of limits and constraints. I may not have made that perfectly clear in my original comment, but on the other hand, the real meaning should have been obvious if you had used a generous reading of what I wrote.

The point is that in the typical political discourse, people extrapolate their own personal experience to government. They seem to think that if the government spends too much, then at some point it will literally be unable to spend more -- and that's just wrong.

Inflation doesn't change that. Inflation is simply the answer to the obvious question that comes next. After all when you tell people the truth that government has no limit to how much it can spend, they tend to become understandably suspicious. TANSTAAFL and all that.

Inflation doesn't affect how much money the government is able to spend, but it does affect whether more (net) spending is a good idea, so it is a constraint in that sense. But it's qualitatively very different from the entirely fictional budget constraint that most people seem to be worried about.
and my point is as it not necessary in way electricity is, we should be careful of regulating it.
I think I have these turned off, since in Safari I can Force Touch on links to preview them in a similar fashion. This has the benefit of letting me choose where I want to stop reading, instead of cutting a sentence off at some arbitrary point.

It is missing one vital point which is more important than framework you choose: You need to ask user if it allows processing of his data for purpose of analytics and if it allows sending it to 3rd party xyz. And it shouldn't be preticked or enforced.

When you evaluate features using engagement metrics, there are only two possibilities. If the metric is high, users love the feature. If the metric is low, users don't know the feature exists, and more alerts or "unread" badges must be added to help them learn.

It's interesting how blockchain became so incredibly hyped though isn't it? Something to do with money (bitcoin) and some new technology perhaps?

I wanted to find out what was going on, so I literally applied for a bunch of blockchain jobs just so I can talk to these people on the phone to see what they're all about. I end up asking really basic questions like: "So why are you using a blockchain instead of a normal database?" or "What problem are you actually trying to solve?" It is actually embarrassing; I feel like I'm being abrasive on the phone by asking such truly basic questions, yet they always seem so startled by these kinds of questions and assume I'm somehow incredibly intelligent and perceptive to ask these basic questions.

Generally what happens is as follows. Some business MBA type people watch a TED talk or read in the FT that blockchain is the next big thing, so they go out and look to hire "blockchain evangelists". Evangelists is the word they often use, and that sounds about right because it is just like a religion sometimes. Then I only end up talking to the business people about these projects, because that's all the people they have. I won't name them, but I've had conversations with huge firms or startups that both equally talk utter nonsense. One large firm told me that they're working on "permissionless and permissioned blockchains for everything from auditing to wine". While for a small startup I once asked: "why are you using a blockchain for this instead of just having a database?". The answer I got was "well... our customers aren't really technical people...". I told them perhaps they should look at something like Google's certificate transparency rather than blockchains, and they echoed back to me "Oh we are definitely looking at certificate transfer!" (Transfer, not transparency.) It's astonishing.

To summarize, huge firms tend to have people who just want to get paid so they always say yes to whatever the clueless MBA person asks, while startups tend to mostly know it's bullshit but go along anyway because there is a lot of $$$ involved, particularly with ICOs.

I can work productively on my 6yo notebook with 4 GB RAM, because a terminal, CLI tools, vim and a browser covers my needs. If I had to use Electron apps, I'd probably have to look into buying a new notebook, which is quite wasteful both on the money side and on the material resources side of things.

Some developers will probably need more than that because of the resource demands of their specific fields, but other than that, 640 KB ^W^W 4 GB should be enough for everyone.

>First of all, a market cap of $300 billion could not be spoofed.

Market cap number is irrelevant to whether or not it is spoofed. That's just the current trading price * the outstanding coins.

If 99% of the people holding the coins do not trade, that means 1% is manipulating the price.

I largely agree with you, although I think one should place less focus on "trust". It is too vague a concept, and I believe it is too often used to confuse rather than enlighten, and to beat well-intentioned politics into submission (aka, "you have to earn the trust of the market", which means precisely nothing).

In this particular case:

> Any country that suddenly declared it had more money than all the others combined and was now buying up all the available land on the planet would find themselves in a heap of trouble. Trust still has to be earned & maintained

... why not be more specific and say that if a country did that, its currency would immediately drop in value on the foreign exchange markets.

Anyway, I'm not saying that trust is irrelevant, and I do largely agree with you, I just think it tends to be overrated in these kinds of discussions.
True, so do we start regulating 4chan, tor and other means of certain communications that can leas to negative effects? Twich cos you could get swatted? I mean, all channels will usually have positives and negatives and it always comes down to who will be the arbiter of what is positive or negative.

Depends on if you enjoy the process and what else you would do with the hour otherwise. If you find it fun and/or learn something by making your own, and would otherwise be doing nothing more useful and/or fun, spending the time works out better than spending the money.

Don’t get any ideas though. Whilst these instructions might make the output code smaller, it will probably make the program slower (1). Processors are optimised to run code generated by compilers fast, and compilers stopped outputting these a long time ago.

1/ There are edge cases like when the code is very big then less code might fit in the cache better or perhaps dispatch better .. but probably not many.

That was also my first reaction, but I did not mention it because judging this (in relation to pageviews) would require more knowledge about the audience, e.g. how many users are using a mouse at all (vs. a touch screen, or pure keyboard navigation).
It would perhaps be more surprising that after centuries of denying people educational opportunities, subjecting people to discrimination and police violence, and discriminatory medical treatment from or even before birth, the effect of this didn't show up in IQ test scores.

Alternatively, if it's a feature you don't like:

If the metric is high, users are spending too much time on it. Also, it is responsible for every single frustration that users have with your product.

If the metric is low, the feature can be safely removed (see: Windows Start menu).
There are so many factors to take into account. When you buy, you buy generally bigger than what you would rent because you buy for the future, you rent for the present. Bigger houser means also more maintenance costs and more taxes. Inflation does not always work: the value of a house getting older and outdated may decrease. The environment may degrade. OTOH, when renting, it is psychologically harder to spare. With a mortgage, you have no choice.

Businesses get to deduct property taxes because they're earning income from the property. Individual owner-occupiers of property aren't earning any taxable income from the property.

Yes, individuals should get to deduct their property taxes... but only after they start paying income tax on imputed dividends.

Nietzsche's text "On truth and lie in a nonmoral sense" expresses a lot of the same ideas.

> When someone hides something behind a bush and looks for it again in the same place and finds it there as well, there is not much to praise in such seeking and finding. Yet this is how matters stand regarding seeking and finding "truth" within the realm of reason. If I make up the definition of a mammal, and then, after inspecting a camel, declare "look, a mammal" I have indeed brought a truth to light in this way, but it is a truth of limited value. That is to say, it is a thoroughly anthropomorphic truth which contains not a single point which would be "true in itself" or really and universally valid apart from man.

It also has one of the greatest opening paragraphs:

> In some remote corner of the universe, poured out and glittering in innumerable solar systems, there once was a star on which clever animals invented knowledge. That was the highest and most mendacious minute of "world history"—yet only a minute. After nature had drawn a few breaths the star grew cold, and the clever animals had to die.
It works well for the latest (and last) version of IE, at least.
Speaking as a junior dev who recently became a mid-level dev (although I still have some junior tendencies to iron out), learning how to solve problems is something that held me back.

When I was given tasks I would worry about the code itself and the stuff I didn't know instead of trying to clearly understand the problem and come up with different solutions.
> When you evaluate features using engagement metrics

No-no-no. Stop right there. "Engagement metrics" are the worst kind of metrics. Engagement means next to nothing. It just means that a user interacted with something. Was it good? Was it bad? Was it intentional? Was it by mistake? "Engagement metrics" answer none of that.

And yet... They are the easiest metrics to collect and too many companies use them as if they were meaningful.

I feel like there's a case for a Change.org that is more just "getting a bunch of people to shame companies on social media to change X"

IMO the reason support on Twitter works surprisingly well is because execs are very tuned in to social media sentiment/PR crisis aversion, so there's a lot of eyes on things people post publicly.

"a [...] over-engineered feature that is utterly crap"

I'm not usually trying to police this kind of thing, but is there a way you could have phrased this without discrediting the work of a lot of people whose goal is to help others? I'm sure you'd get both a little bit hurt inside and defensive when someone in your team calls your code "utterly crap."

That said, I'm very sure they will be happy to hear about your feedback.
But with renting there is no reward.

EDIT: In addition to mobility cited by a reply to this comment, another advantage is the saved opportunity cost of investment in real estate vs other markets.
How can you justify Mezzanine as their breakthrough album? What about the wide popular appeal and critical success of Blue Lines and Protection before it?
Almost all programming languages now have similar standard package managers. I still remember back in the day when everybody would joke about how Maven downloads the whole internet on the first build. This is still true today for Maven, NPM, pip, composer, you name it. You are downloading hundreds of packages for which you implicitly trust their maintainer to not do anything shady. In case of Maven - and likely most others - packages are not even digitally signed by the publisher and on top of it are binaries, that you cannot easily inspect. I'd argue NPM is slightly better than that, at least it (often) includes the source code, though you still have illegible instructions in form of minified/uglified code.

I think NodeJS already has a decent stdlib and there will always be the need to pull dependencies in for basic functionality (apache commons, guava etc. in the Java world). That's just how OSS works. There should be a simple way to display and verify the chain of trust though.

One aspect the article ignores specific to Boise is the increase in enrollment and reputation of Boise State University.

There have been numerous studies showing how universities in small towns can drive economic growth such as this one from economists from Stanford. https://tomprof.stanford.edu/posting/1381

As higher quality human capital moves to the city, they are more likely to accept jobs and stay in the area, which could be driving the growth of the young adults living and working in the city.
As far as I know the Lupin user-script was the foundation of the PagePreview feature. I guess the Reading group at WikiMedia rewrote the extension as part of MediaWiki core and tried to fix most edge cases on the way.

I hate those previews. It is much faster and less distracting to actually follow a link and do some speed reading.
You say just rent it out like renting doesn't have its own downsides like finding decent tenants, dealing with repairs, having to carry the mortgage when you have vacancies, dealing with evictions when they don't pay.

Even in a landlord friendly state it can take 2-3 months to evict someone for non payment. In some states I've heard that it can take a year.

I've been a landlord, never again.
It's called a put option in the stock market.

In this case its priced into the risk of your loan and you bought it by being in the state and taking a loan there.
I think the root of the problem is overzealous use of OOP patterns like inheritance. If you would do the most naive implementation you would just do one view, copy it, and when needed a fourth, just copy it again, instead of entangling your code with yet more paths.
I'm not trying to nitpick, I really cannot tell and don't have context or pre-existing knowledge to resolve it for myself and I'm not a native speaker either:

> JS running on a modern engine like V8 are easily 10x faster than CPython which PyQt uses.

Citation needed. As I've said numerous times before, saying one language is faster than another is pointless. You have to give a full context around it. What particular scenario is CPython slower than V8?

While it's true that a pure CPython tight loop will be slower than one in V8, I have a hard time imagining that being the bottleneck of desktop applications.

> Yes, that's the excuse. It's a bad excuse.

I'm amazed that you find this to be a bad excuse, since it's what all optimizing compilers rely on to produce performant code.

> I've not found ARC code to crash less, and if you remember the article, it is about code that cannot possible crash actually crashing due to ARC.

The code crashes because you violated an invariant at some point of program execution. The way the C-style languages work, it's legal to crash (or not) at a place that isn't necessarily the place where the undefined behavior happens (interestingly, not only does this have to be after: it can also happen before the buggy code executes, due to reordering, pipelining and such). This is one of the guarantees you get "for free" by using a safer language such as Swift.
Such a simple system would recommend many items that are frequently bought by everyone (like bread, toilet paper, batteries). You would have to weight the items in some fancy way to get useful recommendations... And I have just described the introducing slides of a applied machine learning university lecture.
There is mobility.
The risks of renting property are not to be understated. Unless you have significant time, cash, and drive to deal with the myriad issues tenants can have and possibly lawyers, it can easily be a net loss especially with the stress involved.
