It isn’t if we’re talking about histories of science and medicine written between, say, 1850 and 1950. Nowadays I agree, few would argue this directly. But then again, that’s because of Butterfield and the turn away from Whig histories among hist sci types - which, itself, was far from inevitable. And if you read Weinberg, I think you do still see that point of view in play.
Management is easy when your employees have to go to prison for not obeying you and you can exact non-judicial punishment any time ou want.
I second this, but I might also suggest swapping Xanax for some weed. I've had those hours of rolling panic attacks that ultimately led me to believe I was dead and it was utterly terrifying. In retrospect, the experience was amazing in its own right, but I still needed to be calmed and the weed helped me come to again. I'm glad the roller coaster ended when it did.

I go the other way. After twenty years of unix, the first few without X11, I have become very clear on what is cruft and history and what is actually making my life better.

SourceTree didn't exist when I started using git, but it makes the day to day operations of source control much easier and more precise than the command line. I spent enough years in a command line debugger that I am thrilled to have good debugger integration in my IDE.

It's easy to get into a machismo thing where you regard the shell and a teletype emulator as the "natural" interface to the computer, but it's really an incredibly abstracted interface already, and if you spend some time thinking about what you're actually doing, there's usually a GUI or library for an actual language that is what you really want. It just may not exist.

Maybe it's because of flaky PDF search, maybe it's because I'm not using CTRL-F right, but I can't find that phrase in the memo: https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/3914586/Googles-I...

Edit: I dug up the Gizmodo article from 2017. This is the first public posting of the memo from what I read (in case the PDF I linked to above was edited seeing as it has 1.1 in the file name). I still can't find the phrase you're quoting: https://gizmodo.com/exclusive-heres-the-full-10-page-anti-di...
Imagine Zuckerberg in jail...?
Ah. But the old 13" is truly gone.
So they say. No one wants to back up a comment with "...and I run twelve machines". Could still be 'world class' tho.
same day the Equifax guys go to jail
How coordinated was it though? I also think part of the solution is to provide something more appealing to the mentally ill homeless and the lifestyle-homeless. There is a lot of space an hour or two from most major cities that could be used in a project like this.

Something of a commune, heavily staffed with mental health professionals and with very attentive services (medical, cleaning, garbage). Encourage the more willing to undertake/share those roles. Make it feel somewhat self-organised and free.

Run a very loose "street school" - open-air where possible, 1-2 hours a day, variety of interesting topics. (I'm surprised they don't try doing that in SF.)
I don't think the dark patterns are a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention. The machine maximizes input of human attention for the output of money.

The only thing really surprising about Facebook is how consistently well they have executed that function, and for how long they have incrementally optimized it. Zuckerberg deserves some blame/credit for that for sure.
the harm has to be immediate and direct.

I believe this is what Brandberg v Ohio established as the test of "imminent lawless action"
Your example of a race car being driven to complete a race isn't a valid comparison. It's designed and driven to complete that race. Which is vastly different operating conditions than what a consumer car is built for.

Consumer cars are not built to run race courses. I think you're confusing my statement of operational envelope with abusive behavior that it wasn't designed for. Consumers cars are built to be driven on the street in a wide variety of environments. From mountains to Autobahn to temperature extremes, etc... All within the advertised operational specs.

This is actually about the comparison the OP made that you disagreed with. A consumer car is able run at its designed and advertised speeds all day on the Autobahn, without overheating or having to stop and cool down, provided some other variable isn't out of spec. This phone isn't able to run at its advertised speeds continually, the same as a car could. Shocking as it may seem, cars are built to run on roads and at speeds in excess of what the US limits are.

I know you're looking for open source in particular but I'm a PyCharm convert from Atom / Nuclide / Atom IDE and couldn't be happier. Atom didn't come close in terms of functionality, even with a million plugins. There was also a lot more fiddling to get it to work the way I wanted whereas PyCharm generally just does the right thing (though it's very customizable).
Under Australian law public domain exists but only after the full copyright term expires. There's no legal mechanism for an author to relinquish their copyright over their works and dedicate it directly to the public domain.
There are many. We built one in Google Sheets. Zenhub layers over Github. We love it too. But I am sure it didn't require tens of millions of dollars to accomplish.

It’s not like he’ll face any real consequences. CEOs get easily payable fines, not prison time.
The offer is valid for both the SaaS and for On-Premise installations. (Gold refers to the SaaS plan, and Ultimate is the license level for on-premise)
It's useful to note that the term "open source" does not require an OSI-approved license. It is conventional that the term implies an OSI license, but there are projects that are undeniably open source which are not issued under an OSI license. SQLite being one of the most prominent ones.

All that can be said today formally about a project is whether or not it's OSI-licensed, rather than whether it's open source. So companies such as GitLab can claim they are "open source" legitimately without using an OSI license--as can SQLite.

This has nothing to do with the topic at hand. Rather, it's a call to action to stop something I really, really hate about the web these days: popups over content, begging me to sign up for an email subscription. Whenever I'm reading a web page and one of these rude popups appears, I immediately close the browser tab and move on. If the authors are rude enough to interrupt me with an invitation to clutter my inbox, then they must not want me to read their content.

Please, let's end this scourge by closing more tabs and not driving more traffic to these sites.
I graduated from Caltech in 99, and I worked in Emlyn Hughes's physics lab, doing some programming for his experiments with Rubidium spin coupling with He3. The apparatus for the experiment was custom made by Gerhart, and even then, 20 years ago now, the faculty was trying to find and train a replacement. Their standards were very high, to be sure, but the main problem wasn't so much compensation, but finding a skilled apprentice who was willing to put in years with no guarantees that they would be the successor, or even become master glassblowers in their own right, and master scientfic glassblowers who have gone through their apprenticeship are rare beasts indeed.

We see this scarcity in other industries that require traditional master/journeyman/apprentice systems, like master machinists, masons, or plasterers. That there is are no baseline jobs, like light bulb manufacturing in glassblowing, that allow a sufficient pool of talent to acrue so that the very best, the "10x" artisans, can be found. That pool also gives a fallback so that people who are trained but do not possess the talent or dedication to become masters can still be gainfully employed.
I tend to agree. This piece reads more like, how to be a director or VP. Setting the culture is not a front line manager's job any moreso than individual contributors. A manager just needs to keep his folks productive in a way that's aligned with the company goals.

This echoes a lot of my frustrations trying to understand how I might migrate a relatively conventional on-premise system to ServiceFabric.

The biggest problem imo, is that so very few people are using it, at least who talk about it, that this might be the first mention I've seen outside of MSDN, and I started looking hard at it three years ago or more.
I've spent the last week trying to get good file transfer between two applictions, just for static 3D scenes - and I don't know if there isn existing file format. Heck, I can't even get two applications from Autodesk to wholly share a full 3D scene.

If you know of a 3D file format that understand all types of geometry: Nurbs, solids, polygons AND physics based material shaders, AND understands whole scenes: lighting, cameras, and animation. Well I'd like to know of another one.

Also this format adds futher concepts from a pipeline, things that are interesting to AR like late stage lighting, effects, composition, and overrides

I generally agree with you, but any politician who advocates saner policies would be walking directly into demagoguery like "you're willing to risk terrorists killing our children so that rich businessmen can save a few minutes".
It would be unfortunate to have a Skreli situation where we just randomly take out the one with the most punchable face rather than dealing with the structural issues that have created a whole industry doing what he was doing.

same. Maybe it was awful in the past, but I've had no issues with Woocommerce in the past 2 years or so. I suppose it can get messy if you are working with some poorly coded plugins, but the base WC, works pretty well.

I looked at Shopify but it looked like a huge headache to customize - seems it would be a good option if you want more of a turn key experience though.
Honestly, because professionals don't use it.
I do not know the law around this but it seems reasonable to distinguish between a ten dollar individual donation and a ten million dollar individual donation. Doing so would address much (perhaps all?) of the legitimate concerns you raise.
Shkreli was by no measure a dominant player in anything other than the tiny niche he exploited for a short time.
Sounds like the license did its job quite nicely. If those companies cared enough to negotiate new license terms, they could pay you for such a license.
There should be a name to the phenomenon that humans seem to become crushingly depressed once they start to grasp the big picture dynamics of the system they're encapsulated within.

I agree. Maybe there is a word for that?

'Attachment to expectation'. See buddhism.
After trying to use GNU cash for some time, I got the feeling that a personal accounting app needs to be a web based service, to enable it to be used while on the move/travelling, because I found myself building up a huge backlog of entries to be made in to the system in these situations. After about a month of use, I gave up, since the overhead of jotting down transactions and later entering into the system. I doubt GnuCash or any accounting system like that could possibly have integrated apis for pulling in transaction details from every bank, in every country of the world, atleast presently.

Now a days I use a smartphone app called walnut, which mines your SMSes for transaction data and builds up a ledger by itself, without the need for interfacing with banks directly, because in my country atleast all banks provide SMS trails for transactions.
I think his point is that more than him should feel consequences, not just the slap on the wrist for the CEO.
Perhaps at one point I was realistic but I think at this point I’ve seen enough blatant deception that I am overly paranoid as sort of a defense mechanism. This is probably still more accurate than how I viewed things before, but all I really meant by cynicism is that I am conscious of the fact that I am probably even more distrustful than what would be reasonable, just as a result of negative experience. Perhaps I’m right, but I don’t have an objective rationale for this, it’s largely based on heuristics.

To be a bit more concrete, it’s true that politicians and the media are liars, but then to extend that further to education, entertainment, and those who are culturally influential in general can be quite the stretch outside of a few specific data points. And how is it connected? How does this system actually work? It’s so complex it’s almost immeasurable. A critical view of this is necessarily heavily influenced by intuition and emotion IMO since you’re unable to trust a large body of your learned information from that mindset.
In the event that it even becomes a possibility, I'm sure we'd hear the affluenza-oriented, "embarrassment is punishment enough" canard.
Only because it isn't trademarked. Anyone who has the slightest shred of respect for open source community uses the term properly. They coined the term.

As for SQLite, it's compatible with OSI licenses. It has been folded into a larger work that's licensed under an OSI approved license countless times. There are some projects that might throw around the term public domain but I'd have to examine the details to see if it's ready to be used as part of an open source project.
It’s more like Anderson Cooper is allowed to spread the viewpoints of his which overlap with what the corporation he works for will tolerate, which is a very different thing than being able to spread ones own views.

I know that’s a tangent from your main point but couldn’t resist :).
As far as I know, CarMax doesn't negotiate on the price. The price they list is the out the door price. So it's not like OP walked in and they added document fews and headlight fluid fees. He knew the price he was going to pay for the CarMax car, and was pleasantly surprised with the trade in value of his old car.
I can speak from experience that the inbox is the property of the company. Worked at many company's who would commonly just disable the email account to login and forward all new email to a manager (or ceo/whatever).

This is also true with any computer that they gave you.

> I'm not a lawyer so I can't speak for the legality of this.

But if you are talking about a company's email server that you have an account on. It's the private property of the company likely.
Sure, he just had the most punchable face.
Windows NT "required" a minimum of 32 megabytes of memory back then. So that would definitely be a pretty bad experience

According to Wikipedia, that could go as high as 128 megs for "heavy 3D applications"

Not to be overly pedantic here, but Zuck didn't offer to name his child after the Xi Jinping, but asked him to help provide a chinese name for his child [1]. To give some context, in Chinese culture, asking a family member or a close friend to advise on the naming of a child is normal. While Xi Jinping is far from either, keep in mind that he was asking for a Chinese name, which for all intents and purposes can be thought of as a secondary name and thus isn't as significant of a request. On the flip side, my father's (who is Chinese American) Chinese co-workers have approached him to help give their children english names.

Certainly there is a continuum there, but the decisions that a founder makes that are most likely to be critical for a startup's success, are the very ones that are most likely to be opposed by non-founders, because they will be the most unconventional. Typical startups fail.

"how it used to pretty routinely be done" was kind of like what was called "adult supervision", as I recall, back in the late 90's. I don't find that the success rate of the late 90's startups (the dot-com bust) to be all that much better than the current boom (which, granted, is not totally bust yet but no doubt will).
Right? Brooklyn is just a paradoxical mix of pavement and parking tickets.

GPL is kryptonite if you want anybody outside a narrow slice of developers to use or care about your work. Unless idealogical purity trumps practicality in your mind, it's a nonstarter.

NPM or Nuget under more restrictive license regimes would never get off the ground.
If you equate money spent on political advertising with votes (which I believe has strong empirical support), then failure to regulate inevitably devolves democracy into plutocracy.

Assuming that's not desired, the question then becomes how best to balance free speech with equalizing commercial political speech.
I was having the same problem using Chrome.

It seems there are just simply too many elements generated for some of the examples.

It would probably be possible to draw an interactive version to a single canvas— but probably more complex on the development end.

Beyond that, it's awesome!
No, banning money would make campaign spending illegal for any reason.
nice! have you thought about storing upvotes in a special meta article that you periodically update with the latest counts? iirc, you can use the Supersedes header field to replace the meta article so all nodes get the latest vote stats.

or you could store each vote in an adjacent thread containing the upvotes/downvotes for that article and periodically coalesce them into a single count for easy retrieval. that way, the whole system can be stateless from a single node's perspective.
> there are projects that are undeniably open source which are not issued under an OSI license. SQLite being one of the most prominent ones

SQLite is public domain. The OSI recommends against using a simple public domain declaration, but at the same time, does effectively say "for practical purposes it more or less works, though we recommend using a license instead": https://opensource.org/faq#public-domain
> Shopify/Squarespace/Sellfy etc. are much cheaper and lower risk, at least to start with. From experience PCI compliance and tax rules are pains you do not want to deal with.

Could you explain what you mean by this? I've always wanted to create a simple store as a side project to learn some new tech, so I'm curious what the issues are with putting that side project live.
That's complete nonsense. The pain we feel is the result of the calcium hydroxylapatite matrix in our bones shrinking (up to 1.2% in cases of severe dehydration) due to lack of water. This leads to blockage of the Haversian canals which, obviously, inhibits the normal production of osteoblasts, irritating the periosteum which triggers the familiar aching feelings.
I’m doubtful ag and rg use a lot of smart optimizations to get their speed.
That doesn't really change the equation. You've just front-loaded the work into the categorical analysis of version control (and the implied "learn category theory" phase).

PS: I'm cheering for Pijul from the sidelines. :)
The former to be influenced to the "common truth" by the latter, no doubt.
Pedantic, but worth being pedantic about:

Treason is one of the only crimes defined in the Constitution, and consists solely of making war on the country or assisting an enemy of the country in doing so. The definition doesn't use the word "rival". China isn't an enemy of the US. You can't commit treason by assisting China in any way short of actually declaring war on the US.

People should use the word "treason" a lot less than they do online.
MIT developed a molten glass extruder recently although I'm not sure it can do borosilicate: http://matter.media.mit.edu/environments/details/glass-ii

I am interested in the amount of specialized glasswork required by the institution. I also doubt that the glassware of tomorrow's science is even remotely like the glassware of today's. The next glassworker is more of a materials scientist, with glassware as a skill, probably; in much the same way as a programmer may know both Java and Python.
Increasing the payroll tax will definitely hit the working class hard but it's also inline with the otherwise reasonable Republican argument that people should be paying for their own retirement. The Republican preferred alternative is 401(k)s and IRAs, where the working class will simply be screwed and the middle-class burdened with unnecessary risk and uncertainty. See, e.g., Chile, which Republicans naively point out as a model for retirement savings reform but which evidences exactly why their preferred models simply won't work as intended.[1]

Given the long-standing conservative climate, Democrats really have no choice but to usher through a bill with moderate Republicans that keeps Social Security solvent with a less-than-progressive taxation and benefits model. But the Democrats won't because the moment they do Republicans will paint them as taxing the working-class and Democrats are too chicken to do the right thing and deal with the unfair consequences.

Yeah, the solutions are simple and obvious (because of the math, because of the political landscape) but the path to get there is unfortunately treacherous and not at all certain. :(
I just want to fight the narrative of the Social Security "crisis", and point out that it's entirely self-inflicted and largely the product of a very cynical narrative--a self-fulfilling prophecy--promulgated by an extremist conservative faction, which unfortunately has enjoyed outsized influence for the past 25 years, ever since Newt Gingrich's Republican Revolution.

[1] Hint: (1) Banks take a huge, often double-digit premium in management fees. (2) The working class simply don't fund their accounts because, much like with Obamacare, it's not politically feasible to enforce the mandate widely. (It's in some ways worse than the Obamacare mandate because people are more likely to appreciate the benefits of healthcare as opposed to retirement savings, though in terms of absolute numbers people really underestimate the cost of healthcare). (3) People are subject to additional, sometimes severe market risk because there's simply no more efficient way to provide a defined benefits plan (what all economists agree is most rationale for retirement) than a nationwide, government guaranteed insurance program. (Who here younger than 50 invests in an annuity? Probably no one, myself included, even though it's what makes most sense. Though I suppose precisely because we have Social Security we can take on more risk with our personal retirement investments.)
