Interesting insight, thanks!
Why not tie this to CEO pay... whatever multiplier the CEO earns (including bonuses) above average workers is what they pay, so say it's 400x they'd pay 400 per head, if it's 200 they'd pay 200... Then the company just needs to pay 1 worker less money to keep more for the business itself and shareholders/etc... Or the business could pay workers more to lower that 400:1 ratio.
I only use the shipping as well, and it has been getting better and better. I'm seeing free next day shipping more often, and today got a prime order with free same day shipping (ordered at noon!)
As an added bonus, some of these creative solutions also make MITM-ing the whole scheme as trivial as "our corporate phone tree has changed, please use new number 1-555-666-666 to contact me from now on". You have no way to verify it, nobody knows how corporate trees and phone prefixes look like. And of course if the person is fired or reassigned or leaves the job (which never happens!), their account is now under control of some unknown third person.
There is no remark that an admin IAM user should not be used. This is highly critical and should not be done ever.

Also using something like serverless framework is better suited for the average developer to get this setup up and running. Clicking through the aws cli is not something professional aws users do often. (exceptions would be Cloudwatch metrics and logs). The article should at least mention that infrastructure better is managed in code.
Saying Seattle has record revenue is just a completely misleading thing to say, without enough information. Your comment doesn't clarify anything about whether Seattle is spending money poorly or wisely. Seattle's costs have been going up, partly because lots more people have been moving here, and we don't have income taxes, and businesses can hire more people without that leading to increased tax revenue. The city has to build more infrastructure to handle us (roads, transit, bike lanes, tunnels). There's no clear match between infrastructure needs and revenue.

Maybe someone can take a second look at the paper. I couldn't find the published version, just a manuscript[1] (kudos to the authors for making it available under CC license). But... The only reference I could find about the sample size says:

> "To prepare a single RNA injection, the pleural-pedal and abdominal ganglia were removed from 4-5 sensitization-trained animals—or from 4-5 untrained controls—immediately after the 48-h posttest"

4-5??? I really hope that I'm missing something here, otherwise I find truly depressing how low the bar is for scientific journals.

If that were true that we are making it too easy to live here in Seattle, then consider Utah, which basically has provided housing for all homeless people. They have not been swarmed with everyone moving there. I have noticed this has not happened in Seattle :-)
When I was 15, I repaired a class set of iBooks and sold them to friends, and I was a moderator on the iPodLinux forums. (side note: I wish ArchiveOS had iPodLinux and Rockbox). Classmates were coding in ASM on our Ti84+ calculators.

I wish there were a free software company run entirely by under-18s. Schools are generally under-equipped to teach computer science. Parents are paying for food and shelter, and volunteer work can't be taxed. Government agents can't bribe minors, so I think the risk of backdoors is low. Companies can't have bizarre rules about intellectual property and side projects. There were some leetcode-style competitions (e.g. I went to SOI, the Schweizer Informatikolympiade) but no seriously major projects specifically for young people.

With the Raspberry Pi now taking the education market away from Apple, I hope that Linux will continue to mature and grow as the community goes on to university and jobs. I also think that Bitcoin has a niche with young people, who are not allowed to get credit cards from banks until age 18. I'm not worried about the social influence; I appreciated my online friends at that time because my parents' house in the countryside was physically far away from other kids.

The most plausible explanation is an electrical fire in the cockpit that knocked out the transponder and the rest of the controls and depressurized the main cabin. The pilot turned back towards his most familiar airport but oxygen failed in the cockpit, because of the fire, affected the crew and knocked them out. Best explanation of the left and right banks was that the pilots were trying to get their bearings because they had no radar or GPS.

That was an interesting read. After reading both that and the other comments the only solid conclusion I can come to is that literary and visual intellectual property are handled differently, as evidenced by thid quote from the paper:

Judge Castillo stated that “[b]ecause the
Seventh Circuit’s incremental expression case law focuses on images rather
than literature, it is difficult to apply its precedent seamlessly.”

Ok ... and what about the actual burning leaves that you inhale and get stuck in your lungs ?

Are you seriously willing to make the argument that that (which is the common way to smoke it) is not harmful ?

I mean, shred a paper, burn it, watch the burning threads rise. Now imagine these things on top of alveoli in the lungs. Despite their tiny size those threads are hundreds to thousands of times bigger than those alveoli. Now think of what happens to these things, when held against ~215 degrees celcius threads.

Harmless. Clearly.
I can really identify with the author of the article. I used to be able to successfully distract myself from 'real work' a lot years ago, but lately, most of the internet is just plain boring to me, or even extremely hostile.

I used to hang around several guitar forums which took up a TON of time, but I closed my account on all of them years ago when hostility and snarkiness accelerated to dizzying highs. It just stopped being a fun hangout. Twitter and most social media is now just a cesspool of antagonism. Most interesting news articles are now behind paywalls or layered under a ton of ads.

The only thing that takes up some of my online time now is watching chess game analytics on Youtube - but I NEVER scroll down to the comments on Youtube any more because I value my sanity.

Other than that, I find that I spend those minutes between long downloads/uploads or compile time actually turning around in my home office and picking up a real guitar and playing for a few minutes. I am starting to enjoy the offline tools around me nowadays far more than online distractions.
Just noting that Seattle has record revenues, is notenough information to understand if Seattle is doing a good job with it's tax revenue. There are more people moving here all the time, so revenue will just go up (like for say sales taxes). It's like saying the government always does a bad job, so the govt. shouldn't do anything - that's just a general statement that doesn't clarify anything. In this case, let's look at the costs and infrastructure the city is facing and the number of people it has to deal with and try to understand if the city's doing a good job or not. I haven't actually read anything that did a good analysis of that.
This is actually the exact experience I had, although I got 2-day shipping since they shipped to Ireland for me the first time, and Croatia the second time. It was exceptionally good service that I've yet to see paralleled anywhere else.

That is, the demonstrated behavior of Python is exactly what the documentation claims will happen.

I believe the author is misrepresenting the documentation by writing:

> Python's datetime module, despite claiming to represent a date object in "the current Gregorian calendar," sadly does not do so:

This is an incomplete quote from the Python documentation. The full context is (emphasis mine):

> A date object represents a date (year, month and day) in an idealized calendar, the current Gregorian calendar indefinitely extended in both directions.

The Python documentation in the same paragraph says:

> This matches the definition of the “proleptic Gregorian” calendar in Dershowitz and Reingold’s book Calendrical Calculations, where it’s the base calendar for all computations.

Elsewhere it says that the datetime represents: "An idealized naive date, assuming the current Gregorian calendar always was, and always will be, in effect."

P.S. The article is dated (2015).

Honestly, I think this is what it's like to be in an abusive relationship. You know he's abusive and yet you still stay in the relationship with him/her because of all the good times and you delude yourself into thinking that's OK ... I think this gives a rarely glimpse into the rationalizations that happen in the mind of people that are in abusive relationships. From the outside it is trivial to see that the relationship dynamic is abusive but when you're in it ... suddenly it's OK even for one of the most renowned programmers of all time?

I'd argue another angle to it, which is there were fewer channels to choose from back then.

On the other hand, git became successful by being fast and by not solving certain of the hard theoretical problems that specialists were obsessed with solving. It's hard to know before hand what the healthy compromise might be.
The war on pot/crack was Nixon's way of attacking democrats since people in prison can't vote, that's less votes for democrats in elections. He targeted specifically drugs used by those demographics, I believe that's why people were more likely to get off using white-collar drugs than crack or pot.

Correction: It was also to attack the anti-war(hippie)-left -- comes directly from a Nixon Aid: https://qz.com/645990/nixon-advisor-we-created-the-war-on-dr...

> 1-based indexing when you're interfacing to C is just not flying

That does not stop a lot of people. Not that it matters, because Lua will not run in 4KiB RAM.

Threaded code is a compiler/interpreter implementation technique. That makes as little sense as saying you won't use C, because you are "trying to solve a problem, not play intellectual games for how to create static single assignment code."

Instead of being an armchair programmer, you should actually try to learn those programming languages.
The Briar project is probably the most interesting project in this area. They recently released the first stable version [0] which includes bluetooth peer to peer messaging as a fallback if there is no internet connection available. WiFi peer to peer is also planned.

Yes, some people have a pattern of behaving badly. Respectively, I still don't think it's a non-clinicians place to make armchair diagnoses based on anecdotes, especially since,

a) Not every pathological behavioral pattern has some underlying psychiatric or neurological condition to explain it. Some people just behave badly.

b) Often diagnosed psychological conditions don't really manifest in how people think they manifest

and

c) Completely dissimilar conditions can create similar behavior in some situtations.

Of c) especially: For example aspergers and narcissists can behave exactly the same in some situations. They both can lack in reciprocity, but for completely different reasons.

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/mark-goulston-md/just-listen-...

"...after you've run into a couple of people in your own life with those same attributes and that same pattern of behaviour, that's plenty to go on."

I agree that it's really critical to understand that there are people who don't engage in reciprocal relationships and can be abusive.
The cost of buying a house and the cost of living are not the same thing. For instance the price to rent ratio in Vancouver is about twice as much as it is in Seattle. In any case all of this is completely irrelevant. The cost of living and the salaries are lower in Vancouver than Seattle, a fact that isn't up for debate. One of the core factors that have driven technology companies to expand beyond the valley is the cost of salaries, this is one of the reasons that the sector expanded so much in WA, and it's one of the key reasons that it is _currently_ expanding so much in B.C. None of this is theory, or me arguing for what I think will happen, it is what's happening right now.
I agree. I advocate for Optional types. What I meant to argue is that it's possible to have a type-safe, sound null-everywhere. Not desirable, though.
>It's not really any differrent (again, if you dscount the privileged syntax) than using requests instead of the mess that is urllib, or any other instance of "that API is terrible, let's use a different library."

Sure, but all you've really done is defined a new type system distinct from that of JS or python [1]. I'll agree your type system is different from JS's. Again, the fact that you can write a new language, with different semantics, within JS is not and should not be surprising.

>Run-time checking is a requirement to avoid coercion (assuming you also don't have static checking)

Ish. Duck typing avoids both of these, unless you consider the extreme that the existence or lack of any specific method defines an interface, and every object implements some subset of these interfaces, but that's not a particularly useful abstraction.

That is to say `try: lhs.method(rhs.value), except: TypeError` avoids both coercion and type checking.

>I agree. And my argument as to why strong-typing is not a feature of python-the-language is that it doesn't provide any declarative way for me to extend that property to my own interfaces; if I have some higher-level interface that doesn't fall right out of the existing Python libraries' interfaces, I have to do all of the same kind of work that I did in the above snippet of Javascript.

Huh? I'm going to challenge you to give an example, because I don't think you'll be able to.

>I think the concept of strong vs. weak typing that you're describing is coherent, but only (a) as a property of libraries, not languages, which is my argument, or (b) you assert that the built-in syntax is central. I think the latter is defensible.

To be clear, (a) is a valid interpretation, but only if you consider the base `Object` type to be a library (or more broadly, the base type). This isn't a realistic assumption. As soon as you write you're own object, you've created a new language with similar syntax but distinct semantics. Basically yes, its absolutely possible to implement a strongly typed language within a weakly typed language. But its also possible to implement a statically typed language within a dynamically typed one. That doesn't mean that the outer language isn't weakly typed. It is. You're just able to implement a stricter DSL in it, which again.

As a similar example, you can write Java code where everything is declared as Object. This doesn't make Java dynamically typed. It does however make your bit of code not statically checked. Similarly, you can write stuff within JS that is, within a fence, strongly typed, ish. You have to stop using a lot of the language's built in syntax and methods, so are you really writing JS any more? The syntax is similar, but the semantics are not.

But there are a lot of languages with similar (or even identical) syntax and different semantics. Python2 and Python3 are a good example.

Sure, as I mentioned, it’s easier if you can negotiate ciphers. But on the upside, there’s no downgrade attack. If the sender uses a modern cipher, the receiver either supports it or can’t decode the message. Still, that’s not a hard reason to not introduce protocol changes like new ciphers and a new field. Funny that you mention that since currently GPG on my Ubuntu spits out warnings about some feature it does not understand in files encrypted with a newer GPG on my fedora. This actually trips up some of my tooling.

If you want obscure 80's music you can find archives of old 80's comp tapes from everything to folk to punk to experimental techno (https://contortyourself-cy.bandcamp.com/album/80s-undergroun...). I think the 90s+ has way more to offer in terms of just massive amounts of raw weird shit from bands most people never knew to begin with. You can stretch out and find all the sub-genres of a particular type, like electronica (https://beat.media/obscure-genres-of-electronica-you-need-to...) death metal (https://www.listchallenges.com/the-obscure-us-death-metal-10...) 90s UK indie (http://www.nme.com/photos/50-forgotten-90s-bands-who-prove-9...) or random French bands (https://frenchcrazy.com/2014/04/popular-100-french-songs.htm...), or do what most music nerds do and visit a record swap.

Traditional television is behind the push to destroy the net in general.

Look at us here in Australia - look up "NBN". we had a plan (that was already 10% complete and working great) to install gigabit fibre in 93% of homes. Then Rupert Murdoch handed the election to the Coalition, in exchange for them:

- Immediately stopping work on the fibre network

- Replacing the bulk of the remaining rollout with a VDSL system (ancient technology, my parents got it and instead of gigabit fibre their internet went from 13 Mbps to 19 Mbps - and this costs 2400$ per house to install)

- Using loans and taxpayer money to expand the Fox cable TV\internet network to double the number of homes, and paying Foxtel hundreds of millions of dollars for the privilege, while continuing to grant them exclusive rights to broadcast on it on all frequencies they want, including the ones that are optimal for internet

- Purchasing and decommissioning the Optus cable TV network which competes with it, replacing it with VDSL service

It's a national tragedy, wasting fifty billion dollars and a decade, just for the sake of protecting a conservative TV monopoly.
