Pretty long document and what you read last is what you will remember the most.

It is what you are left with. Brains are closer to LIFO than FIFO.

It is why it is easier, usually, to remember things that were more recent than longer ago.

But there are exceptions. I have an incredible memory for things from a very long time ago and not so good at more recent. But I am unusual as my siblings can't remember the same things I can when we were kids and I am younger.
> "Having easy access to energy"

Life needs an energy gradient. In this case, direct access to colder water. No organism (or machine) can use the heat energy of its environment if it has no access to a colder medium.

Edit: I just saw that Retric explained it better (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17245948).
> The patch-based workflow is very similar to how the Linux kernel review workflow works.

I don't think that is accurate. Or there kernel its very common to submit whole patch series (branches), and to rebase them on the latest kernel. Phabricator makes multi commit reviews possible but a total pain.
As, I say "to work properly".

I can't send a message to anyone, without giving it access to everyone. How daft is that.

> This kind of ownership is much closer to lending money to someone.

No it isn't. It's 'fractional ownership', a mechanism designed to defray the risks of a single venture across multiple people because the risks were larger than any single individual could bear. The case that created it was the India runs with ships that could carry more valuable cargo than any individual could afford to buy or insure.

Spreading that risk through fractional ownership eventually led to the stockmarket. So it absolutely not at all like lending someone money.

Government members don't need to be expert legislative drafters.

A few years back I went through and evaluated multiple different tools primarily for their code review capabilities. I looked at quite a few including GitLab, Gogs, ReviewBoard, SmartBear, and Phabricator. We use Mercurial for source control and nearly considered migrating to Git because that's where the majority of tooling exists. We set up Phabricator and haven't looked back. Getting developers to use Phabricator/Arcanist was fairly organic -- learning to use a command line tool for creating the reviews was probably the most challenging but devs learned it because of the convenience of the code review.

It's very well-designed and has support for enterprise features like ldap, clustered servers, CI, etc. and there's no distinction between community/enterprise versions -- it's all open source. Other great features are task management, wiki, blogs, question/answer (a la StackOverflow), and of course memes/macros which add some lighthearted fun to code review. The engineering behind the product is top-notch which is evident from reviewing the tasks/discussions behind features [1], or even reviewing the source code. One killer feature for my company was Spaces, which allows setting up "walled gardens" -- we use it to allow external collaborators to create tasks, etc. without being able to see anything outside their own space.

Managing and maintaining Phabricator is pretty straightforward. It's a standard LAMP type of product (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) which is easy for myself or IT to jump on and diagnose issues. It's the only tool I've seen which will also alert administrators to identified issues with configuration (when logged into web page). Additionally administrators of the tool do not have blatant all-access to projects, though that might be niche.

I'm glad it's getting more notice now, even if it's largely due to Microsoft acquiring GitHub. I don't know if Facebook uses Phabricator still but WikiMedia does and I belive the Mercurial development team is considering it [2]. Phabricator is a great product and worth trying out. Their community is located at [3] - they used to allow open access to their self-hosted Phabricator instance but it became too noisy as the user base grew so they've moved to discourse forums.

I would be surprised if terrorists killed more people. That isn't to say that terrorism should be taken lightly because they could get "lucky" and kill lots of people. While a scary issue, due to the proximity of the US (minus local terrorists like the alt-right groups) we are largely shielded from it. Hell drunk drivers kill passengers and those in other vehicles every year far more than terrorism has minus in 2001.

I wonder how many police officer killings are due to "suicide by cop".
For small projects where most outside contributions are "drive by PRs" by random people, Phabricator may not be the best choice due to its complexity.

I hope they will add a "git push"-based workflow to accommodate this use case.

> Every idea is one commit

Ideally, a commit should be self contained and change only one thing. This means that a feature would consist of multiple commits.

Since later commits may depend one or more earlier commits (some of which may be in the same feature branch), how do tools that work on a commit based workflow handle those dependencies?

PSA: "Real pay" means nominal pay adjusted for inflation. So if pay went up by 3%, and inflation was 2%, you'd get something like a 1% "real" pay increase. Please reserve comment about the "cost of living" or inflation, as those are (technically) accounted for in this number.

Been using Phabricator for a few years now at our SaaS, and it is a great system. Recently really went to town with Herald rules etc., as well as connecting it up to AWS CodeCommit + CodePipeline to review and deploy to our staging server from our 'develop' git branches etc. Very granular control over workflow.

Housing in desirable areas with potential for growth is offset by depressed housing in most of the rest of the US, so for the desirable portions of the country, housing, and higher education and healthcare have outpaced wage growth considerably.

I was with you up to that point. Do you have a reference for this? My reading was that centralization of wealth was a relatively natural consequence of our economic model and not something that was manipulated into being. Hence the discussions on UBI and other ways to fix it.

Yes, although it's always worth asking what measure of inflation is being used. Whoever makes the statistic usually picks the measure most favourable to their point, the most common wheeze is not including housing costs where they should be included.
Technically correct, but there are huge regional differences for real wage increase and cost increases in many countries, so what people experience is different than what a national statistic confers.
True, indeed it has all the features you mentioned. But do you think people stick to GitHub because these features are so hard to replicate?
First no, it was "at most 1%" which means it could be negative.

> costs of other goods and services where outpaced by wages

You're implying that all people consume the same basket of goods as calculated by the article. Wage growth and spending is not even across society, so most people could be worse off while all of the above math holds true. labour productivity rose by 75% in America from 1973 to 2016, while average pay rose by less than 50% and median pay by just over 10%. which is largely because between 1979 and 2016, pay adjusted for inflation for the bottom fifth of American earners barely rose at all.

Further, many goods like computing power have gotten vastly cheaper, but that savings mostly end up with people who have disposable income. Spend a lower percentage of your income on such goods and the benifit decreases. This means the the bottom half of the work force is worse off than you might think.
We use it for FreeBSD.

My impression, coming from tools like gerrit, bitbucket/stash, fisheye/crucible and google3 is that phab is a review tool that kind of wants to be a source control tool, but it fails at both. I actually dread putting up reviews when I upstream stuff to FreeBSD because I hate phab. I've found that it is just easier for me to use the "upload patch" feature than it is to use their arcanist tools on top of git or svn. I really wish the project would move away from this tool.
>Most of the content is static HTML, probably updated by hand from time to time. Could this be the reason why the website is surviving the slashdot/HN effect?

Probably not, because it doesn't survive the slashdot effect. Many of the places I clicked didn't work.

Politicians, at least in the US, are not he ones that write the laws. They have teams of aids that are given direction and then do that for them. In other cases laws can even be written by private firms and our politicians then have their teams look over it. Politicians spend the vast majority of their time fund raising for their next election.

Though maybe a more fundamental point is that our legal system is quite broken. The legalese is intended to ensure clarity, yet when it results in a system where fewer people than ever have any clue about what the law actually says, in anything beyond the most broad meaningless strokes, one must wonder whether it has actually achieved its purpose or not.
Definitely could have used this back in school ;)

What is your definition of "prevent", like physically stop from doing it?
> “you could serve ads on Yahoo, or Reddit, or the whole Google Display Network, etc., and see how much vastly worse those clicks convert for you.”

But that experiment could only possibly tell you if Facebook ads, in general, are more effective than ads on other platforms. And that might be caused by all sorts of confounders, like the relative demographics or usage patterns being different on those other platforms, which have no connection to whether anything that Facebook does contributes to positive ad effect.

In particular, comparing with other ad platforms could not tell you whether Facebook invisible audience ad algorithms are any better or worse than Facebook algorithmically targeted audience ads (especially since you still wouldn’t know if Facebook privileges algorithmic ads in some way just because it’s good for their business if it appears that their specialized product is better than a non-specialized one).

> “This isn't rocket science.”

It’s funny to me that a lot of marketing, product, and A/B testing people express this attitude about understanding what succeeds in marketing & product problems.

When really, those questions require a great degree of statistical rigor that is like rocket science.

It takes a great deal of advanced econometrics theory or formal statistics theory to answer ad spend attribution questions in a way that’s not completely defeated by methodological flaws, poor experimental design, causal indeterminacy, or various statistical fallacies.

Perhaps it’s one reason why the claim that digital ads work is still so hugely debated, with many claiming that quantitatively, digital ads (including Facebook) utterly don’t work.
"Does this mean that you literally hand over your online account log in details to Intuit? Or how is this "scanning" done?"

Yes. They use your banks credentials and scan the accounts. It is really awesome. Because you can centralize 20+ accounts into one flow in an automated fashion ++ you don't need a bookkeeper. Ironically, it is actually more secure since I can catch things within minutes.

"Also, your company's accounting information can be sensitive, and hence you may not want to share that information with Intuit (and whoever they choose to share/sell it to)."

Worse! Intuit does all my TAX RETURNS. Their tax system is absolutely worth it. I trust them more than "Jeff" at my local small bookkeeper firm. They handle a large percent of american's taxes. [Yes, yes I understand their lobbying is terrible].

Your comment stayed in my mind, about the (maybe futile) quest for the "one true theory". Today I was reading an article [1], and a passage reminded me of what you were talking about:

Schrödinger’s theory proved easier to use than Heisenberg’s, in part because it is more intuitive. Furthermore, first Schrödinger and then Paul Dirac proved that the two theories are equivalent. In physics any two theories that make precisely the same observable predictions are observably equivalent. And one of the predominant philosophical views of the age — logical positivism — held that any two observably equivalent theories are really one and the same theory.

...

Einstein demanded a clear and comprehensible account of what is going on in the physical world — at all scales — in space and time. Bohr thought that the key to quantum mechanics was the realization that no such thing could be had.
