* Sell themselves to a wide and fickle audience of stangers

* Manage a campaign staff

It is not necessary that politicians can do either / both, it is just that they appear to be the least worst option for at least a brief moment in the past.

I'm often reminded of that single panel comic where small child says "Dad, I'm considering a career in organised crime" and the father, holding a news paper, says "Government or private sector?".
Macro voices (the best macro podcast in the world right now) recent guest mentioned in passing that inflation would be a lot higher if measured differently implying that the 2% number has been gamed. (Goodhart's law: "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure")
Yes, thanks for clarifying. This is still tremendously disappointing. They show you the books in the bundle, but refuse to sell them to you. I wonder how this is a thing. It certainly lowered my faith in the Humble Bundle.
Most definitely it does effect the HN users. Every site that uses the upvotes mechanism as a signal to the group about what they should think or focus on is producing both positive and negative consequences. It's used not because the good outweighs the bad but because it's implemented by programmers who find it easy to implement. If you asked a social psycologist/socialogist/ecologist or an educator with experience in building learning environments a very different system would be in place. We need these kind of people influencing these feedback loop not just the well intentioned but misguided programmer.

I have bought this up multiple times before. There are a lot of impressionable minds around here being exposed to lot of half baked/frustrated/misguided thoughts. Many times the upvotes mechanism just amplifies and reinforces these thoughts.
This will be the downfall of Facebook, every country wants them to give them data while at the same time wanting to protect their citizen from data being given to other countries. and countries wanting data about their citizens probably contravenes human rights.

Assign a mentor and give the onboardee free reign over them. Make sure that the mentor is okay with it and make it clear to them that this can take as much out of their time as needed and it won't reflect badly on their perceived performance.
If need be, allow them to be unavailable for X specific hours a day to allow for uninterrupted work on important tasks but otherwise remain totally there for the onboardee.

Accept that your employees won't be productive from day one, and they don't have to. If your employees can be productive from day one on tasks, you're probably postponing the real onboarding and making yourself feel good.
We can also say that the police steal more from people than non-sanctioned thieves do.

In 2014, for the first time ever, law enforcement officers took more property from American citizens than burglars did.

That’s great for companies, but bad for organizations. I run into this with commercial vendors who try to explain how all 10k people in my org would benefit, whereas I know only 100 would use it.

The course of science is shaped by the natural world at least as much by people. It needs people with the curiosity of Aristotle, but how it proceeds depends also on what nature reveals to them, and on what they can pry from nature by using what they have learned so far. My guess is that something like our physics has emerged (or will, relatively shortly) on every world populated with intelligent beings.
Not a subsea engineer, but having worked in the space previously I can tell you that we already have giant man made heaters sitting at the bottom of the ocean. Subsea Oil and Gas wells take advantage of the steady temperature at those depths to dump excess heat form the production fluid (sometimes up to 120F for straight crude, much higher for oil and gas mix) whilst and before it rises up to the platform. Sometimes using active or passive cooling on the ocean floor.

Then there's natural geothermal vents doing that, but probably an order of magnitude more, since before humans were around.

The ocean is a pretty big thermal mass.

"...there is an extensively well-established (to put it mildly) precedent that the safety of an area must be secured by police before medical personnel are even allowed on scene"

This kind of thinking is uniquely American. On my drive to work I heard a third tier college promoting their "anti-terrorism" major. We are marinating in an ambient paranoia, where every police response is an armed response, and every "first responder" response has a police element to it. That's not good. The expense entailed by American paranoia is part of why our ranking in things that matter to quality of life for people of modest means are mediocre.
Way to completely miss the point.

You're saying the appropriate action for someone assumed to be likely to harm themselves is a show of deadly force?

It's also worth mentioning there's previous work to reduce the amount of polymorphic gadgets in the instruction stream, including a new framework for clang:

So all those 1/2 CPU Xeon servers with 16+ cores running Windows and which don't crash are just an anomaly? I wouldn't be so quick to judge. I would guess that your case is the anomaly. Anecdotally speaking, as admin to several 12 and 24 core dual CPU systems running Windows 7/10, my first guess would be that you have some other issue e.g. faulty stick of RAM (have you run memtest86?), a bad driver or the most common cause of crashes: a bug in the code, which only happens in certain specific cases such as "while Skype is running in the background".
That’s all great, but if your ideas are anathema to what the major political forces want, then it’s not going to work. Sometimes you have to take your case to the people.

Have used Buildkite at a previous workplace. Really liked the UI. This is coming from someone who has used Jenkins, Travis, Codeship, and GitLab CI.

Their front-end is open source: https://github.com/buildkite/frontend

However, if you add your own CI runners, you'd have to clean them up periodically. This was the biggest issue for us, because even after cleaning them up from all docker images once a week, builds would get stuck.

> it assumes that if it's bad when the federal government gets involved with something, it's equally bad when the state government gets involved

Which in my opinion is a broadly false assumption, and ignores the very point of a federal republic, which is federalism. People in different states have different cultures, different norms, different geographies, different natural resources, different pastimes, different porn habits, different cuisines, etc.

State legislatures are closer to their voting populace than federal legislatures, and thus, people's interests can be more directly reflected by voting more locally.

I agree that a state trampling on your rights is functionally no better than if a federal government does so, but you have more recourse against a state government doing so, more opportunities for remedy, and more ways in which to steer the ship right where those violations are regular.

I imagine the first step would be to use standard marine anti-foul paint on the exchangers. But that only works for a few months at best.

After that, I'm not so sure. Perhaps a slow, continuous movement of an exchange surface past a hard surface would do the trick. When this stuff is young, it's easily wiped away, but once it's there for a while you get real problems.

You broke your analogy a bit there. You don't go to the production areas of packaged food companies because you assume that others are doing so - specifically, state regulators. It's not that no one is obviously getting sick - they might be getting sick in subtle ways they can't pin on the food, like long term heavy metal poisoning, in the same way that malicious software can be very quiet about it.
over Europe with right wing parties tearing apart the EU based on fear created in part by inequality

that is due to concerns over immigration , not wealth inequality

Russia 1918

this had to do with famine and massive unemployment as a consequence of ww1, not merely wealth inequality. America is a long way from being as bad as Russia was in 1918. The Great Depression is far worse than anything now, yet there was no civil unrest in America.

French revolution

Wealth inequality was just a single factor, all. France was in financial crisis due to debt from various wars, causing high taxes and food shortages, again, which are problems America does not have.

How can we reasonably expect an average person to install, configure, maintain non trivial systems like emails?

We get paid to do things we want to do and are good at, and we pay others for services/goods that we need but aren't capable (or don't have the time or interest) of doing it ourselves. It is unreasonable and impractical to expect everyone to do everything themselves.
What happened in Flint was a scandal because that's not supposed to happen in a rich country, that sort of water supply is an eye sore that someone should've done something about years ago. The sentiment that things like these can and should be dealt with swiftly is so engrained in us because of all the benefits we enjoy.

Meanwhile, in some places where millions of people live cholera in the main water supply is Tuesday. You can make boatloads of cash if you satisfy that market demand.
Yeah, that sounds right. The crucial difference is that police encounters in the UK hardly ever result in death.

Edit to add: it's not just that the police are much less likely to shoot someone, but that people know the police won't shoot them and therefore they're less likely to react in stupid and/or dangerous ways.

'Real pay' is a very well established term, The Economist will assume that its audience understands that kind of jargon. It's really not at all dishonest.
Armed resistance against the state being enhanced by the American idea of "gun rights" is a fantasy unsupported by history.
Inflation is not measured correctly because it does not include housing and shrinkflation, and probably other things.

By excluding these things, the inflation figure is smaller. This smaller figure is then used by your employer to justify your small pay rises.

E.g. "real pay has grown by 1%" when in reality it might be "real pay has fallen by 5%"

Populism itself is not necessarily a bad thing if it is in the great American tradition of distrusting elitism and authority. However what we have instead is manufactured populism funded by very wealthy people.
Please stop trolling with this. And if you're honestly not trolling, it would be good to read up a little on mental illness.

Stigma is a useless tool for solving problems. Dangerously mentally ill people may pose a risk to others, but any caring society should focus on managing that risk and making sure that people receive appropriate safeguarding and treatment. An attitude of "mental illness is a personal failing" helps literally nobody.

> The plea for unions is so unique coming from The economist.

They've slightly changed their discourse in the last couple of years (not sure if it coincides with their change of editor). My guess is that the sort of people that work at newspapers/magazines like the Economist started to realize that the "working classes" (in which I include most of the actual middle-class) need a bigger share of the economic pie, otherwise they (the working classes) will keep voting into power more and more populist leaders, and that's very bad for business.

A similar thing happened in the 1870s and especially after the Bolshevik conquest of power in 1917, the capitalists in the West realized that they need to better take care of their workers otherwise they and their families might end up in a common grave, their properties nationalized.
I don't know if it is implemented in this tool, but there is no reason that you could not have multiple "to" fields in a transaction.

In double bookkeeping, you must have balanced books, but you do not note which bookings occur together. The transactional scheme seems strictly superior because you automatically know which debits and credits or losses and gains go together. You automatically have balanced books. I think you sould be able to even generate double bookkeeping from transactional bookkeeping automatically.
I guarantee you that nobody angry about losing their home while bankers got bailed out will be assuaged by the news that the pie is growing.

Similar things have happened in the past, in the vast majority of cases the politician doubles down and ends up spending more time and resources trying to prosecute the hacker, and use it as an example of why they need to go further with these kinds of laws so they can find these "hackers" before they can do damage.

For some reason people think that R&D will go down to nothing, even though the other major players spend multiples on R&D than does Tesla.

We've been hearing for years that as Tesla "scales up", these costs will diminish. We're now at, what, 150,000 cars annually? And costs are increasing at an increasing rate. Still waiting to see those economies of scale.

Bezos becoming richer through stock gains costs me nothing, because his wealth increase is purely speculative. He didn't take that billions out of the economy, or from the poor, or from anyone.

So I think this is not a good measurement of whether or not the majority have become richer or poorer. A much better measurement is do they have more stuff, or better stuff, or a higher quality of life than before. This is the level I think most people care about. Not whether some rich people got richer (mostly from stock growth) faster than I did.

There are various ways to do inflation, most governments release a variety of measures.

Fuel is not included sometimes because of it's inherent volatility, it jams the numbers up and does not give a clear picture.

Housing - I think they might include rent but not mortgages as the later reflects consumption over times other than for when inflation is calculated.

A while back, I lived in St. Petersburg, Russia and the funniest read in all of Russia (IMO) was the eXile. Thank you for all that fun. You are the best journalist working in the US today.
