Dude that borders fantasy to me, wow....

Didn't this friend also come by your house to play or stay overnight and ofc, after so many hours playing, wouldn't your mom make yourselves a nice snack for you to charge up and stuff? How come your friend's mom do something as autistic as that?

imho, his mom didn't like you (or was just jealous you were hanging out too much? narcissistic parents and stuff) and just wanted to kill the friendship....

srsly dude, the more you live the more you get spooked by people, thank you for refreshing my view of humanity.
Please, share your thoughts. Peace

I was extremely lucky to have Plato access in high school. The social and collaborative aspects were amazing. The idea that in 1980 I could send a note to a software author in another state and collaborate with them was (at the time) revolutionary to us high school kids.

I don't know any other system that would then allow me to learn to read and write Cyrillic and even if we'd had the right hardware listen to a native speaker.

Last time I checked we breezed past the symbolic point-of-no-return at 400 ppm CO2... so it kinda is too late. We can try some damage prevention if you feel like it.
Wow, you are getting downvoted. I 100% agree with you, though. I have seen too many proprietary text editors come and go to be able to justify building my work around a closed-source one.

My text editor is absolutely fundamental to all my work, and I spend significant effort in customizing it to my particular needs. I loathe the idea of having to re-do all this work on a different editor, once my current one is no longer supported.

But who am I kidding, I am married to Emacs anyway.

All of my arguments were practical though. I use a few closed source applications when I couldn't find any open source alternative that did the job but code editing is definitely not one of them.
That would mean everyone will have to "whitelist" Youtube and allow playback after updating Chrome. No way this "option" gets the stamp of approval from Google management.
One theory is psychological adulthood is having individual agency, which babies and children clearly physically cannot have, and at some point as people age into competency they either get it and become adult, fake it and generally do relatively poorly, or never bother obtaining it and do very poorly. (edited to point out the article tip toes around this without ever stating or summarizing this)

For any given task X that needs doing, you can either do it because it needs doing, only do it when tightly supervised, or not bother someone else will take care of it. Where X could be anything, go to the gym, raise children, a job or business, politics, all manner of things.
I might be wrong, but I think FB is cutting off its publishing API in next few months or so.
Nice effect. But it is interesting how "lightweight" is used here. Sure, the library might be lightweight, but the CPU usage of my Chrome instance jumps to nearly 100% as long as I play with the demos. That's not "lightweight" for the user.

Nextcloud always seems to be the default goto for a company going open source for this. I do sometimes wonder why. Is it the sales team? The relative maturity of Nextcloud/ownCloud as a product?

I lean in favor of Sandstorm.io myself, and have watched Cloudron's approach appreciatively from a distance. Both use containerization to isolate security risks in a way a monolithic PHP based app is probably missing.

But at the end of the day, I'm happy to see support for any of these. Organizations considering open source a viable alternative helps all of the above.
Answers in order:

We dont' know. 5 times.

The rapid and huge increase in CO2 is to my knowledge unprecedented. We did have similar CO2 levels in the past but never in such a rapid incline, only after thousands if not millions of years time for everything else to respond.

We could be causing a The-Day-After-Tomorrow-Scenario. Or something like 2012.

Or Mad Max. We simply don't know but considering the parts we do know, it's likely that whatever happens is not good. A 400ppm Level of CO2 was considered a symbolic point of no return and we have passed it a while ago.
If someone says to me "your crap is crap, get outta my sight" then maybe I need to evaluate if what i created is in fact actual "crap".

If it's not crap, then why the fuck do I care if someone else thinks it is. If it isn't, then I can justify all the decisions that were made and why they were made and why the result behaves as it does.

If i can't then that's a problem, and that problem is on me to fix. Why am I making "crap" ?

Is this maybe an age thing? Is this a problem with young people needing to be handled with kid gloves?

Never mind the fact that if someone can say to me "your crap is crap, get outta my sight" then we obviously have an environment where I can tell that person to go fuck themselves.

What you, and most people championing the virtues of the slow and steady save, fail to consider is the time value of money (ie why those investments compound so much interest). Money today is worth more than money tomorrow is worth a truck load more than money in 67 years. Combined with the fact that, at least in my opinion, money when I'm young and healthy is also worth multiplicatively more than money post retirement.

I think most young people would rather be, and far better off with, saving that 10k annually you suggest to amassing a down payment on city property or equivalent investment in current quality of life rather than prepping for a lonely future.

Flash's Gaming Legacy  and My Efforts to Save It
This reads me like the lowest part of a burnout episode. I don't mean to trivialize the author's experience...I'm sure their experience and what they are describing is very real. But when you're experiencing a defeat (even a defeat not caused by a single specific event), it can compound the whole "what am I doing with my life" feeling.

I hope the author gets back into open source though eventually. We need people who can bring levels of correctness that mathematics students tend to pursue. Even if its complicated, it can push the artform forward, and everyone else will adapt.
Here in the far suburban Chicago area, the bike racks at the grade schools are still around and still getting used.

More encouraging to me, I'm seeing more kids out on bikes here recently (and they and the skateboards never went away entirely).

Even better, on the bike trails I'm seeing more young kids with their parents, riding bikes rather than sitting in trailers.
Bash script: change your MAC address
I'm very confused by your post.

> Neoclassical economics still has no plausible answer for the Anything Goes theorem:

What should it be answering? You linked to a theorem, not a question. And even if it were a question that a certain theory doesn't have an answer to, that's perfectly normal. Theories come with their domains of applicability. Go outside that and they "don't have an answer". For a comparison to physics, that would be like saying "centuries after the findings were published, Newton's theory still can't explain the speed of light being the same in every reference frame, I find it hard to conclude this is the method of an established science."

> I find it hard to conclude this would be the method of a established science.

What are you referring to when you say "this"? The thing you linked to is a theorem, not a method.

I think you might be assuming from me knowledge and context that I don't have.

In the first place, good software is software that exists. I don't know ticki or his work, but if it is vaporware what he calls vaporware, then there is no way for it to be good software.

If ticki reads this: props for the clear words. Honest posts like this are rarely seen. And good luck for your career in mathematics. Though I figure great mathematics is not much different than great software (I'm not talking about glue-coding): It needs to exist. You need to find simple, obviously correct, and useful models to create something that other things can build on.

And if you decide to come back later: A clear goal helps separating the essential from the non-essential. Formalism is only a tool, not an end in itself.

Hi HN, author here. Corral is my attempt at a performant, easy-to-deploy MapReduce. Unlike traditional frameworks like Hadoop, it uses AWS Lambda for execution and is “serverless” as a result. It was initially kicked-off by AWS adding Lambda support for Go, but draws on experience I’ve had using Lambda tools like Zappa[1] and Serverless[2] in the past.

I think there’s a lot of interesting applications for using function-as-a-service platforms as executors in data processing frameworks such as this.

Dilemma for those of us considering donating:

1. Donate (50) years from now: our investments will grow substantially on a compounded basis, and we'll give much more in dollars, even after adjusting for inflation

2. Donate now: we'll give much less, but -if donated to the right causes- the beneficiaries will see compounded benefits. E.g. this lady helped educate beneficiaries via college scholarships, and these beneficiaries will benefit from that education throughout their lifetime, from today till (50) years from now, with increased pay. (If a college scholarship seems to necessitate only big donations, and you can't imagine fractional scholarships being useful, imagine smaller donations for buying books for poor kids, etc)

I don't know the answer myself, and sincerely could use debate here.

Dock.io: Connect Your Information Across the Web
Right. Yeah, with ours you do hit the top bracket (45%) at $180K but the actual percentage of tax across all income (the marginal rate) means that you're still only paying just over 30% at that point ($18,200 free, 19% of $18,200 to $37K, 32.5% of $37K to $87K, and 37% of $87K up to $180K = $54,232, which is about 30.1%). Even by the point you're making a million dollars a year you're still only paying 42% marginal rate, even though you're well into the 45% tax bracket.

I'm generally not super opposed to having a rate as high as 60%, but the point that kicks in with Sweeden's system does seem very low...

Because people assume they must be there for "diversity reasons", which is assuming that they are being artificially raised up in a way that disadvantages everyone else. It's one step removed, but the point stands.

We can't just ignore the imbalance that exists due to past inequality, act equally now and pretend there are no problems any more. Fixing that imbalance doesn't have to mean pulling anyone down, and that response ("it must be because they are taking the opportunity from someone else who is more capable") needs to be fixed, not the act of trying to pull people up to fix past wrongs.
From what I've found, I would probably agree with your statement. Sometimes by the end of the day it might get upvoted back to zero.
It sounds to me like you are mixing the concepts of trust, accountability, tribalism and pathological cronyism.

Personal vouching for other people generally is the best guarantee for performance in absence of better criteria.

Trust is not a bad thing.

Trust does not alone degrade accountability. But you need to have a second accountability mechanism in place. Trust, but observe is the classical zen guidance into holding accountability within a group.

Then the group dynamics kick in - tribalism and pathological cronyism.

Exclusive clubs are a typical organization principle in the human species and they increase efficiency within the group by increasing trust and improving the quality of communication through larger shared background. Tribalism alone is not a problem to members within the group.

To agents external to the specific group tribalism may manifest in many negative ways, of course, but it is totally context sensitive if it's a problem or not in the general sense. Many elite organizations, for example, exhibit highly tribal behavior.

Then we get to the black sheep of the lot, pathological cronyism. I think we all can agree without further explanations why it's bad, but, the prerequisites for the pathological cronyism are many of the same kind as needed for the positive patterns exhibited in human socities, including trust and tribalism.

The thing that keeps everything from collapsing into a self-satisfied old boys network is accountability.

But using trust - instead of, say, bureaucracy - as one of the key ingredients of a company culture sounds to me totally great.

The point about them being priests is that economists are subjected to incentives to reach specific incorrect conclusions which physicists are not.

One example is the notion that raising the minimum wage does not cause unemployment - there is a massive amount of pressure put on economists to reach the opposite conclusion because raising it hits profit margins in a big way. Krueger talked about the way economists reacted to his paper - many acted as if they had been betrayed.

Similar stuff happens in physics over pet theories but there is no overarching imperative driven by access to prestigious jobs, money, publications, etc.
I think a nuance here is that #2 will still hold later, say the 50 years from now that you mention in #1. It will just be other beneficiaries.

> You cannot show there was no other a period in Earth's geologic history where CO2 levels rose by 150ppm (or 150%, whichever is not relevant) in less than 200 years

That assumes the CO2 is also gone just as quickly. But I doubt that would happen unless you can show a natural process that could not only increase the CO2 level by 150ppm but also decrease it by 150ppm just as quickly.

Theology is generally the study of the dogma of your chosen religion. Assuming any of the field is based on truth requires you to already believe what the religion says, as "a long time ago this guy said this" is not a convincing argument. Almost everyone will find this true, as even if they believe it for their chosen religious theology they generally don't for all the others.

The "ultimate questions" are the realm of philosophy.
> Now people balk at apps over $0.99 and even opt to have a ton of their personal information sent off to a stranger to avoid that price

Yes! This is extremely puzzling for me and I would love to know why it happens. I am mostly free from this and do not think about trying a $1 app any longer than I do about buying a cup of tea (and always pay for an ad-free version if I still using the app a week later).

However, I am in the minority: hearing this my friends roll their eyes "you are paying for an app you may not use long term? You must be rich. Look for a free app instead, man".

Agreed, i didn’t talk about option c) time. However, even if we extend the analysis i cannot get it there with ease. It is a shame we cannot just ask her about her contribution amounts and timing!

I don’t recall the source but i was recently reading about a long term study on insider trading and it was found to be somewhat common. Like damn, i even have insider tips i could offer (don’t ask, i won’t!) but I’m not the only one with this info and some of the people i work with I’ve witnessed do questionable things in other areas of life that lead me to think it’s possible they might wink the right way as they talk to someone that shares a tip.

At the end of the day investing is something we should probably all do, but i wouldn’t use this as an example of what most people will achieve. It demonstrates a very happy outcome, and while i think it shows what can happen, i wouldn’t call it average, I’d still have to say she did better than most; she beat the market, somehow, either through info or by having more time to execute a better strategy that most cannot achieve.
And there you have the crux of the matter. On the one hand, I'm sure cities have gotten larger, traffic a lot busier, suburbia becoming busier, etc. On the other, parents are afraid, and get told by e.g. the media to be afraid - there's child snatchers around every corner, for example.

But what are the distances kids have to travel to school or their friends nowadays vs back then? I mean the school bus was a thing back then too.
