If you are talking about regulatory capture, I’d need some concrete examples of how you think this constitutes RC.

Complex laws around data recording and reporting might count as RC because of the resources involved (S-O for example). But net neutrality? Not seeing it.

You know what the technical term for that kind of legislation is, right? Yeah, you guessed it, that is net neutrality regulation!

So, I suppose you are against this type of legislation then, correct?

I think it's because if you start using Linux, you want to feel like you're using something new and high-tech. So the super-chrome UIs tend to win out.

I like my setup (i3wm), but it would be a horrible default. You have to read a manual to make it usable. Gnome is a kind of nice default - since everything looks modern and works out of the box.

True, but all of those languages are very heavy-handed and have ancient and arcane build-tools and package management ( If they have it at all )

For me, I was looking for a language that is appropriate for both scripting and slightly larger web application projects.

Scripting / Web application development is NOT a great use case for C/++, and I feel Java is a bit heavy handed to be used for a scripting language.

I tried out Golang but did not end up liking the language.

It depends on your context. Having moved from ECS on AWS to K8s on GCP I found kubernetes simpler despite its vast number of concepts. It has the correct abstractions for a microservice architecture, and it made us write less boilerplate code to manage and deploy services.

Breaking them up does not do anything. If there is one cable to your house, breaking up the company that owns it does not change that there is one cable to your house. Last-mile networks are natural monopolies. You wouldn't expect breaking up your local utilities would lead to a choice in sewer pipes, would you?

I don’t think Darwinism has anything to do with racism, except tangentially. Modern racism and the idea of some races being superior was the direct result of colonialism, and evolution was perhaps only one of the tools used to justify white supremacy ( another was Christianity).

It is fascinating to see the dynamism of race in India. The early British (pre 1800s) didn’t seem to hold racist views of the natives, in fact many of them had Indian wives and children, and adopted Indian clothes and culture. Some even converted to Islam, many were fluent in Persian, the language of elites at the time. But that begins to change markedly when British supremacy is assured in secured in the 1800s after many successful wars.

You can guarantee termination by limiting bit precision, but it is more interesting to limit the set of operators your program uses instead.

For instance, you might have an operator that translates from hostname to IPv4 address.

That function can return billions of different numbers, but if your program’s input only has 10 hostnames in it (and you don’t use string manipulation or other tricks to fabricate hostnames) then you can infer that the IP lookup function only adds 10 new symbols to the sets that your program maintains.

Searching for “herbrand universe” will produce formal writeups of these ideas.
I don't have one. The pesticide issue and species collapse is one of many entry points to get people to entertain (or better participate) in restructuring all of modern agriculture.

There are other reasons too (resilience, independence, better economics for small communities) and the common response of "bigger must be better because thats what the free market has produced" is invalid when there has been so much government intervention that has given and continues to give much advantage to the existing system.

So basically I implore you to entertain the idea of restructuring agriculture even though you implied you aren't inclined to :)

In addition to the other suggestions in the thread:

* meta: learn to know yourself if you don’t already. It’s half the battle. I took an MBTI course that was tremendously helpful; well-done career counseling can also help in that it can make you understand your intrinsic motivations, and from there figure out what you need to be happy.

* security training. These come in two flavors, operational and normative (usually some flavor of iso 27k). If you come from a dev background you’ll probably already have some operational knowledge (owasp top 10, sysadmin hygiene, etc) but it’s always worthwhile to strengthen it especially in areas that may be new to you (infra hardening, managing a fleet of PCs for non-technical users, etc). Normative might seem like bullshit at first but when well done is helpful to structure the way you think about security (like, what assets are you trying to protect, from whom, and at what cost)

* business training might come in handy to hold your own in meetings. At least be comfortable with how a business case works and what your company’s BC is. This will allow you to have more productive discussions with the PM and understand, from a business perspective, which features you should focus on.
Full Disclosure: I work for Red Hat Consulting in the Container and PaaS Practice, an OpenShift/Kubernetes expert group.

OpenShift's value (and its open source upstream Origin) is not just that it is a PaaS. It's a PaaS that you can install and run on many different infrastructure bases: baremetal, VM, public & private cloud, and others very soon. I personally run a couple flavors on my laptop for demo and training purposes. So maybe upstream Kubernetes is not so simple. But that is why we (Red Hat) call OpenShift "Kubernetes for the Enterprise". It means we make some sensible defaults, decisions, architecture choices and make installation supportable to get you started. However, the fact that OpenShift & Kubernetes allow you to define you application architecture in reusable and portable object definitions is it's biggest benefit, IMO. And you may not need to spend thousand of dollars in infra per month to enjoy that benefit.

Absolutely. It just requires an environment where other folks are building, maintaining, and adapting data infrastructure to new needs -- e.g. a large company with a decent data engineering investment.

Also, in those specialized roles, a statistian with an advanced degree is likely to get more leverage. So I think it's smart for undergrads to work on being "unblockable" In a variety of environments so they can build experience - which is the spirit of the standard CS undergrad there.
There are plenty of engineering undergraduate programs. What's the difference here? Civil, mechanical, computer, electrical engineering are all very math-heavy. Sometimes an engineering degree can take 5 years instead of 4. So be it.

The GPS signal is already under the noise floor on Earth there is no way with present day tech that you'd be able to get the signals on Mars and besides that the math would not work because the round-off errors regarding the timing would make all satellites appear at the same point in space when looked at from Mars.

Good for that guy but by 'Antarctic expedition' I was expecting something different.

I just want the feeling of having lived in Antarctica for a few months. (internet access is a must).

1. You should be able to sell the camera for about $1500 if you don't like it, therefore the cost of the wrong decision is about $500, or $100 in expectation. Spend no more than 4 hours.

2. Regardless of the answer, worst case you'd be spending $250k this year to make 500k over the next few years, which is a terrific return on capital. Buy it, information is useless here.

3. Studies showing 95% confidence are wrong more than 50% of the time. The answer is let private companies decide if they think the odds are good enough to conduct expensive trials.

4. The current ROI for pharma companies is below cost of capital and will be negative in 2 years. It's not a great business anymore. https://endpts.com/pharmas-broken-business-model-an-industry...

I'm not sure if these are the answers the author is expecting, but they seem to be the correct ones to me.

Edit: also, the cost of a drug is mostly development. Production is dirt cheap once it's been developed. The model here of a cheaper drug is just wrong. They might be cheaper, which would force A's cost down, etc, but has nothing to do with cost of production.
Yes, this. Presumably the best, even average, teams opperate on a voluntary basis. The "Enforcing" paradigm runs against this grain.

Like the recent Internet Chemotherapy?
I recently built a cross-compiler for a used Kindle 3 I got from a friend. Its kernel is from 2008, but you can still read books with it just fine. I was thinking about turning it into a mobile terminal I can use in full sunshine (e-ink is rad) and using precompiled hacks from the mobilereads forums, I got ssh on the device pretty quickly.

But as soon as I wanted to compile my own binaries, things weren't so easy anymore. The glibc on there is too ancient for modern cross-compilers (like the one installed by apt). It can't be replaced because the kernel is too ancient for a modern glibc. Replacing the kernel would probably fail due to lack of compatible drivers.

The sources for the original cross-compiler, the kernel and various libraries were actually quite easy to find on Amazon's website, but they were incredibly difficult to build. Because that GCC used some GNU C extensions that changed semantics in modern GCCs, it didn't even compile without patching the source. The build step for glibc involved filtering the assembly produced by the compiler through a sed script, which of course silently failed when the newer compiler produced different output.

All in all, it took me about two weeks of experimentation until I had a working cross-toolchain.
I can vouch for this - had my charger overnighted in a foreign country free of charge.

I used to be able to rely on Apple to put this kind of effort in, but I don't think I would be able to today. Dell are really trying.

> At some point a drug addict, predisposition and circumstances aside, had to make a choice to start taking drugs. Someone with a mental illness never chose to flirt with mental illness, they’re just mentally ill.

as you point out later in your comment, there is significant overlap between drug addiction and other mental illness. it seems unfair to make the "original bad choice" argument in regards to people who didn't start off with a sound mind.

i see a couple other issues with this common indictment of addicts. many people use alcohol without negative consequences, and it is considered acceptable to do so. are you going to go back and fault an alcoholic for taking the risk of having a first beer? another issue (and i believe this may be controversial) is that addiction as a mental disorder may exist in some latent state well before a person ever tries a drug. if so, the question is less "will they become addicted to drugs?" and more "if not drugs, what will they become addicted to instead?".

my final objection is that drug addiction is not particularly unique among mental disorders in that it is possibly caused/triggered by an initial poor choice. explicit decisions (like deciding to try/use drugs) and more general lifestyle are significant risk factors in many mental illnesses (e.g. depression, schizophrenia), but people with these afflictions receive sympathy that is far less conditional.

my personal take: we see addicts behave in ways that appear irrational and antisocial. when we are close to them, it causes us immense emotional pain and it can cost a lot of money to help them. we resent that they seem to be blissfully high while we clean up their messes. there is not a whole lot of incentive to understand how it isn't their fault. the less we can blame them, the harder we find it to draw the line where we can feel okay about cutting them off.

The simplest usage of average without an article would be “let’s average FB’s data” (where average is a used as a verb). That’s completely acceptable to say in normal usage but maps to “let’s blockchain FB’s data” which you’d presumably hate. We could also say “I used an average”/“I used a blockchain” (average being a gerund/noun form of a verb as in “I went for a run”) or we could say “I computed the average”/“I forked the blockchain” (akin to “on my run”, where we are referring to a specific instance or result of the verb to average or to run).
