Except that they are in this game for years, and probably can play it much better than you do. But by devaluing citizens input by injecting obvious deception into it, you make it harder for others to make a difference when it does genuinely matter for them. Because on the input side, there's no way to know the difference between somebody who genuinely passionately cares for the issue and somebody who strategically lies about it. And since lying is cheaper than genuinely caring, the optimal strategy would be to assume purported one-issue voter is lying. So what exactly did you achieve by that?
No, because the JVM is (almost) always in the picture. There's a difference between interpreted execution and execution proper.

With languages that compile to an executable binary that is platform specific, for targeted CPU architecture and chipset, dependency hell promises a degree of shelf life and planned obsolescence.

This injects an aura of fear into each and every event in whatever arms race we hear about. When will the next time be one too many? When will an industry skill set cease to possess currency?

Absolutely. I do think that everyone should try psychedelics at least once, in a comfortable, controlled environment with friends.

You may not unlock the secrets to the universe, but I do think it teaches you an important lesson that your reality and experiences are subjective. I don't mean that reality itself is subjective, but our perceptions of it are. LSD will mess with your perceptions in really weird ways that can't really be described with words. Things like your perception of depth and age get thrown off completely.

I think the whole point of the paper which the writers at PBS might have glossed over is simply "we can reproduce this outcome with an extremely simple set of hypotheses". That's how I read it, at least, and that's something that's bound to cross the mind of someone familiar with agent based modelling. And if all they want is produce a power law distribution over income, that's all they need. Further model complications only become relevant if they lead off to new conclusions, or different outcomes from the generally expected outcome under particular circumstances. What you're suggesting would be, on the simple basis of some academic pragmatism -- and the fact that they still have to start from somewhere -- left to further studies, adding stuff to this model while citing the original paper.

But all that you're suggest would indeed bring back at least some degree of agency to the whole thing, even if just as being able to find, sort and act upon opportunities.

I would believe it when I see a million people marching in DC for it. This issue is tiny and insignificant compared to major ones in US politics, however you personally and your peer group feel about it. And the "majority" is just a sleight of hand - you ask people "do you want to access all sites on the internet for free", people enthusiastically say "yes" and you interpret it as overwhelming support for a specific highly technical policy decision that these people never heard of, have no opinion of and probably couldn't distinguish pre-2015 internet regulations from post-2015 internet regulations even if their life depended on it. Which it most certainly doesn't, so they wouldn't really care either way.

Using your phone's GPS requires cooperation from your phone, however, triangulation by timing is not only possible, but even required by the GSM standard, the signal continuously measures and encodes your "latency" to the tower needed so that you'll start transmitting your block slightly earlier if you're farther away so as not to overlap with the time slot possibly allocated for some other device.

It's not as accurate as GPS, but it gives a solid estimate of your location that neither you nor your phone can prevent unless you totally disconnect.

The whole domain registration system is a very complex and messy area to work with, both from a development as an enduser perspective. I speak from experience working at a hosting company implementing domain registrations directly with the registry systems.

It's a incomprehensible mishmash of tld's implementing different methods of registering, renewing, restoring, domains. Some require ID verification before registrations, some have a quarantine of 1 week, other of 4 weeks, some no quarantine. Some domains need to be renewed before expiry, some can still be used 2 weeks after expiry, some domains allow transfers and trades, others don't or do under strict circumstances. Some require transfer codes, others don't. Some transfer codes are valid for 1 week, some are valid for longer.

There is no decent standarization on the technical level when it comes to managing domain registrations. There is the EPP protocol but almost none of the registries implement a standardized way of registering domains each implementing a mess of extensions to suit their bureaucratic needs.

ICANN introducing over 1.2k new gTLD's some time ago also didn't help along with the introcution of domains containing non standard latin characters and the puny-code implementation there (eg: café.com is actually listed as xn--caf-dma.com)

I'm not trying to defend domain.com who obviously failed to deliver on the basics of decent support, but things like this (issues between domain vendor and registry) happen more than most of us like to admit.
I live in Houston, with 2.3 million other people. The most expensive area of town is maybe 2$ a sqft to rent.

I live 10 minutes from downtown in a triplex, where the other two units(I own) rent out for 1,900 a month, and my wife and I get 1,400 sqft. I bought it for 200,000.(beautiful neighborhood built around 1910,)

And it's very easy to make 140,000+ here as a developer. It's hard to make google/netflix 300k-400k, but you probably don't need to be as good either.
> in hopes that they can integrate with us

I think you can stop right there. The dog thing happened not because dog "wanted" to be with humans. Dogs were clueless about what happened, it just did. The explanation is on a higher level, not in their desires, not even in the desires of the humans who participated in most of the dog domestication (even if some of them may have thought about it, but by then it was already happening).
I have hard time to believe response said "we know better". Could you quote one?

Yes.

Too many articles and drug users promote psychedelics as harmless safe easy miracle drugs (for mental problems).

Readers might ignore that positive studies were conducted by medical experts. AFAIK all experts warn against the private use of drugs and psychedelics.
I'm all for improving the consumer experience but I don't see how this case would have gone differently. The likeliest scenario is the woman making the purchase did not notice the shipping charge when adding to cart and going through checkout. Perhaps something happened where the seller was able to modify the free shipping to the actual charge but as someone who has used Amazon and sold on Amazon for years, this is not likely/usual.

I've discovered deeper in the comments that using 1-click to purchase allows for sellers to add shipping fees later that do not appear to the purchaser unless they check their order history (It says shipping is FREE on the product page but this is not actually the case). I've never used 1-click so this is why I haven't experienced this problem before.
Thank you, I'm glad to hear you like it!

I'm happy it was received so well because I had a lot of doubts when I launched it. There are still bugs to be fixed and features I want to add but I first wanted to see the response to the MVP before I spent months developing this further.

I've been using Gnome on a Dell XPS 13 for a few years, and it's fine. In many ways the user interface is considerably better than the Macbook Air I had before.

In particular, connecting external video always works really well. And connecting printers always works really well. And it always goes to sleep and wakes up. Those weren't the case 10/15 years ago with Linux desktops.

So yes - buy hardware by a company which actually ships it with Ubuntu, and use Ubuntu... Linux isn't the problem here, compiling kernels and not using a desktop distribution are.

Like I said, it may be common in your sector, but it most definitely is not in mine.

That you can be clever and win and still lose, and someone less smart may actually do better.

Actually, it's all quite a stretch as far as the details go, while the general idea that I stated at the beginning is true but not exactly original.
That were exactly my thoughts when I did a similarly simple project this year. No need for the product to be perfect or completely finished if you're putting it out there for free (in my opinion).

Also, there will always be room for improvement and people wo won't like it or demand features, so remember to keep your head up even in those situations and be proud of what you've accomplished.
In my experience the distributions with longer release cycles like RHEL are really stable and don't have as many issues like this or you experience them only during the initial setup and then run normally for years. I had a very good experience running a CentOS desktop for two years, even considering the initial hassle I had with sound, installing Skype and video-card drivers.

However I actually don't install them because I want the latest toys and so do most users. Honestly my desktop experience has decreased on both Windows and Linux in the past 10 years. Windows 10 also has begun to have the same stability issues for a lot of users - so rolling release seems to be the wrong approach for desktop users.

> The network needs to know your location in real time in order to route calls to you.

At least for GSM, that isn't as true as you say it. It only needs to know in wich group of cells you are, as as re-registering with each cell change was deemed too heavy on the battery, and they rather page for your phone in the entire location area.

Likewise, triangulation requires the phone to send something, which means that you can notice that, and also that continuous triangulation will drain your battery.

Even Windows was split into desktop and server variants. IIRC, OS X was briefly offered as a server product before being discontinued, in large part because it was awful on server-like loads. Android's UI smoothness is still lagging behind iStuff, and that has Google money behind it. Seems natural that systems optimised for one thing would be bad at others.

And unless there appears a compelling and profitable business case for Linux on the desktop/laptops, it's likely better to let the "Year of Linux on the desktop" meme die.

> Some organizations have access to a computational power reaching into the realm of a computational power of a human brain

From a physics standpoint it’s not equivalent power actually, it’s equivalent energy.

Power is work per unit time. Work is energy expended which causes displacement.

These “brain-equivalent” computers can’t do nearly the work of a human brain in the amount of time. They use about the same amount of raw computational energy, but they don’t make nearly the same amount of structures waves in the information spaces around them. Their output can only even be seen in the absolute quietest of environments. They often run for long periods of time with no obviously informative output.

Human minds tuned for it are essentially incapable of not producing a constant stream of novel and disruptive insights (work) which is how you get a large computational power given a roughly constant computational energy.

> so YouTube music is an experience upgrade.

Based on the press release, it doesn't seem so. It's basically just added a "music only" option, but otherwise it seems to just be a curated section of Youtube that only involves musical content. The same experience you get with vanilla Youtube seems to be applicable.

And looking at the pricing, you still get all the battery pitfalls baked into Youtube unless you buy premium.

Honestly, it feels more like an attempt to curate Youtube rather than developing a music app. Right now the top video content competes with the published Music content and likely just creates a really weird imbalance in the algorithm toppers.

Personally, I think they could have just handled this with some better organization within Youtube, but here we are with a new app.

Your post is great and I agree with everything in it, except for suggesting ayahuasca to regular people. Over perhaps the last ten or twelve years I have made ayahuasca for people and sat with them during their trip. I strongly recommend people have experience with another psychedelic before trying DMT (or a brew in which DMT is a component, like ayahuasca). I actually generally won't let someone drink ayahuasca unless they've experienced other psychedelics beforehand. I will usually take them on a mushroom trip first. Only one time did I let someone drink ayahuasca without any experience with psychedelics first, and it was the wife of an experienced tripper friend and who also had experience with other substances. That went totally fine, but it is just such an intense hallucinogen (and/or dissociative depending) and it lasts for so long, I just couldn't do that to someone that didn't have a taste of what to expect beforehand.
