I wonder about the translation, is "real money" an accepted economic term for this concept? Because "Voll" as a prefix usually means complete or whole, rather than "real", as in "Vollmilch" (whole milk) and "Vollkorn" (whole grain). (Source: I'm German.)
If you're measuring the raw efficiency of the self-driving mechanism, you have to correct for those.

If you're measuring whether the actual experience of using autopilot meets the prevailing standards by which we judge "safe enough" as a country, you don't want to correct for those first three.

Especially the "the cars are new and safe overall" factor. Correcting for that is like "correcting for" the fact that all the dangerous lithium ion cells are carefully packed and armored, and coming to the conclusion that sitting in a Tesla is less safe than sitting in a bonfire.

It makes the arguments a lot worse when people don't distinguish those two questions.

I'm so glad I read this. I've been driving a VW Golf with adaptive cruise control and enjoying its responsiveness in heavy traffic. Knowing that it doesn't work with stationary objects will really change how alert I keep my foot near the brake pedal. The first time I realise what adaptive cruise control was I was delighted but I've become increasingly worried that I rely on it too much so I'm interested to try driving a Tesla or similar vehicle to see how I react cognitively to a car that takes over more control. Anyone have any similar experience?

You're correct. And conversely as well; during the gold standard banks could still lend money from deposits.

Similarly, charitable donations are generally tax deductible so again, if anything, capital gains taxes serve to encourage people to allocate more of their returns to it.

I'm happy to say my crypto library¹ satisfies most of his criteria:

It has 50 functions. That's too much, but it could be reduced to 10 if the user stick to the highest level facilities. There is no dynamic memory allocation, and no I/O (actually, it doesn't even depend on libc). The structures are defined in the header to allow the user to allocate them on the stack, but looking inside is unneeded and discouraged.

New Jersey's new governor campaigned on multiple radical changes, including a "wealth tax". The governor is now trying to push this through Trenton. However, the Senate leader of NJ (Sweeney), although a Democrat, was recently reelected in what was one of the most expensive NJ Senate elections in history. Sweeney could not have succeeded at this game without the financial support of those who are most exposed to such a wealth tax. Naturally, Sweeney is sensitive to their tax exposure and has consequently opposed Murphy's plans.

I don't see NJ taxing capital gains in an administration that has many other bold plans requiring party support.

Capital gains is not necessarily an immoral tax, but it's not obvious that the people who make this argument would enjoy the alternative.

In Norway, capital gains and corporate income tax are set such that they are (practically) identical to the income tax when they are both applied. So gains from owning shares in a company will not give you a tax advantage over receiving wages from said company.

Then again, this is exactly the argument you're making - ensure that corporate + capital gains taxation is identical to the income tax.

The difference that we still have a corporate income tax. I would think it's necessary to keep this, or else capital owners would just avoid realizing profits at all, while waiting for the political climate to favor reducing the capital gains tax again. With an annual tax on corporate profits, you ensure that capital owners are forced to contribute to a degree no matter what. But consumption is still taxed.

Hi! Thanks for your feedback.

> Calling this "Blockchain" sounds like buzzword bingo to me.

First of all, our main technology is multilingual natural language processing, but not blockchain. But we use blockchain protocols to create training collections in the same way as many similar projects like DBrain do.

> more live demos and meaningful comparisons to the many competitors in this space.

1. We use our chatbot as the smart demo of all our technologies.
2. Non of our competitors are working properly.
3. Non of them supporting this amount of languages we do (such as Chinese, Japanese, Arabic and etc.).
4. Non of them having features we have (multilingual summarization, audio summarization, news aggregation and etc.)

Besides, we have a lot of advantages that make us really unique and different from our competitors:

- summarization feature. Our summarization and multi-language (100+ languages) algorithm can extract and structure the most important information from text, images and even audio files.

- news sentiment analysis. Our sentiment analysis models are specially trained and optimized for the effective analysis of news articles, while most of our competitors are focused on the analysis of user reviews. Sentiment analysis method supports English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Russian languages.

- news aggregation. Thousands of news sources has been indexed and analyzed by our custom artificial intelligence modules to give the perfect search accuracy in natural language mode.

- set of web scraping tools. Using our services, you can not only analyze your custom dataset, but also collect your own collection from unstructured sources: extract clean article text and other data from news articles, extract lists of reviews/comments from forums and etc.

- image processing. In addition to analyzing the texts, we also offer image recognition and face detection functions. If you plan to expand your document analysis system with image processing capabilities, you don’t need to find another service provider, as we have both of these components (text analysis & image processing).

I think 100% money is the original economic term for this concept, used by Irving Fisher (see http://realmoneyecon.org/lev2/images/pdfs/100percent_money.p...).

Also, I think Vollgeld comes from an abbreviation of vollwertiges Geld (full-fledged money), and seems like an appropriate translation of 100% money and sounds good, as well.

I think we should stop looking for the One True Way and accept that there are multiple ways to evaluate job applicants.

Some companies will hire only people from top schools, other companies put a lot of focus on understanding algorithms; other companies just look at your previous jobs, and some may just look at your Github profile.

If you are looking for a job, you need to understand that, and apply to the right companies. Depending on your background, not every company might be a great fit.

If a CS degree is a hard requirement, and you don't have one, then applying at that job is a waste of time.

If you're applying to a company that works on Open Source and they have popular, public Github repos, and you have a blank Github account without any contributions, you're not going to make a good impression.
Sounds like win-win. CA gets the parasites to move, then gets to declare that the policy works because CA companies still get investment, then the policy gets applied nationally. What's not to like?

Don't think so. It's too expensive to manufacture and too hard to use. Copper cables are expensive and easily confused with the cheaper cables that don't work. Optics are very expensive and fragile.

And there is no usage for that of course. Home devices cannot handle 10gb/s of incoming data.

It gets worse. Users have massively abandoned Ethernet in favor of Wifi. Many devices are manufactured without Ethernet support.

I find it ironic the complaint that wealthy don't use their money to help social causes and yet complain that such help is tax deductible.
Seems wrong to me as well. I think the point of the translation is to say "non-fractional reserve" money, for which "real" is a defensible but not fantastic shorthand. "Fully backed" might make sense.
Burnout is usually not caused by exhaustion, but by lack of progress. Progress isn't just about money or working with a good team. It's about doing something worthwhile.

I quit software a few times.

The first was because of low income. I started a cafe. But someone offered me about 5x the money I was making to get back in, and I did.

The second time I was a freelancer. I kept building all these shitty apps that nobody used, that were backed by bad teams and didn't make any money. So I started my own startup to do something worthwhile.

The third one was after I sold my startup. It was doing okay, at 5% weekly growth. But I was tired of people in the "startup community". I was working 100+ hour weeks. I couldn't get any funding even with significant traction, while some fools got lots of funding without even a product. I felt like a failure as a CEO, sold the company and retired for about a year.

Resting did nothing at all to cure burnout. What really helped was when someone asked me to go around the country, training teachers and students in advanced programming techniques.

It was giving back that really helped me out of burnout. If you've been in the industry for a long time, mentoring helps a lot.
However, effectively it would remove at least half the total loan supply, which would probably not be a good thing.
Yes. That is why I stipulated "British".

I think it´s the german version of the 1932 Fisher Full Reserve proposal.

This is a pretty good. I can see university students using this!
as with every socialist idea, creation of fiat money is entirely controlled by the central government, because it regulates laws requiring private banks to not lend money over a certain amount they actually have (loan-deposit ratio). this ratio was raised repeatedly, until 2008 crisis and now is rising again, because no one aparently learns anything ever.
The difference is that there is no package tool. These libraries are not dependencies that can disappear or whose API will break. You are expected to copy them into your source tree, or even use only the idea and make your own version. Also, as my sibling poster points out, they are self-contained.

Well sure. The history of economic experiments is that they do end up eventually getting reversed. After a period of death and destruction, revolution, economic collapse, starvation and dictatorship.

If there´s one lesson we really need to get over to the Economists from Computer Science it´s that they have to stop experimenting with the production system.
Literally the exact same bullshit that just effectively banned online poker in Australia earlier this year.
Not if they are opposed by determined 50 percent.
I don't think there's much consumer demand to have their money locked up for 25 years like a typical mortgage a bank offers its customers though. Someone's got to do the maturity transformation, and it's not like the economy is safer if that's done by pension funds and/or an aftermarket for mortgage-backed securities instead of the banks actually making the lending decision...
Tom Woods and Bob Murphy address this on their Contra Krugman podcast.[1] Basically the scheme would ban fractional reserve banking.[2] So banks could still loan money, but they would have to use money sources other than checking accounts.

Sure. Modern medicine didn't emerge in a day, and practices in one field hospital would have been better or worse than elsewhere.

My point is that scientific medicine as a gold standard, that came 3-4 generations later. In the post war period, that's when modern medicine was an indisputable leader in the field of healing.

Also, I think you make an important point on Florence Nightingale. Maybe we should call hygienic meducine practices, "modern scientific nursing" rather than medicine.

Incidentally, I wonder if that brief period where female nurses where celebrated might be a period when some traditional practices may have crept back into the modern practices.

At least in game development, custom allocation code is often used to either provide more debugging and profiling capabilities, or otherwise add functionality to the generic C or C++ allocator. Every good middleware library provides a way to hook into memory allocation, and ideally annotates each allocation with some sort of tag or label, so it's possible to track from the outside what an allocation was used for.
Oldée currently full time emplyed programmers can perform programming work. They typically dont have github profile. Which is where your comparison fails.

Isn't this true with everything? That's why it's important to have something that is not related to work and by extension you can play around with it without the pressure of doing it "professionally".

Actually, that's what I think leads to burn out: no time to play around with stuff without pressure of "doing it one true way" or with "business value".
True, there were not so many choices back in the early 70's.

No they don't. If I have £5 and lend it to you, we haven't created any new money. You have £5 now but I don't have it any more.

If a bank just writes £5 in your bank account, they've created that £5. There is no corresponding £5 that has been removed from somewhere else, unlike when you or I extend a loan.
No. If I lend you money, I have a correspondingly smaller amount of money. Nothing is created from nothing.

On the other hand, banks are allowed to lend more money than they actually have. Remember that a lot of money exists purely as numbers in a bank ledger. When the bank gives you a loan, they make a note in one place that you owe them X and then they simply increase the number associated with your bank account.

When people withdraw money from the bank, they are given notes from the branch’s own stock of notes. If the notes get low or run out then they are restocked from the central bank.
Isn't that how income tax works too? Why should cap gains be different?
Maybe Kodi, you can customize skin so it shows only library you created, has lots of skins, can look pretty,..
It can scrape all the info from imdb or similar sites, so every movie can have cover art, description, rating,..
Once created library can be browsed by looking on cover art pictures listed by name, year, rating, director, genre,..
supports continuing where you previously left, bookmarks, can automatically hide already watched content,.. etc
it has extensive plugin support, lots of official and unofficial addons for streaming stuff, trailers, audio, youtube, twitch, vimeo, program addons even some rom games addons,.. can be complicated or simple as you want,.. but for this use case you won't need any plugins, maybe a different skin, something your daughter would like.

How? You look at red apple, you think "such a nice red apple, but one side is a bit yellow". But "red" doesn't mean anything to you, you don't experience it. If you can imagine that, explain why red-p-zombie-you insist on being able to experience red color, while in fact he/she doesn't experience it.

I can only suppose that you imagine someone like you with a textual annotation above his/her head "I don't experience red color", and not trying to imagine what it is like to be such a person.

Doesn't it defy the purpose of a thought experiment? You don't imagine conscious experiences, but imagine descriptions of presence or absence of conscious experiences.

ETA: Using your analogy it is like imagining pigeon with a label "Dragon" above its head, and then concluding that there's no logical reasons that dragons can't fly or exist.

When you imagine a "real" dragon and then ponders on this imagination, you have to conclude that your imagined physics must be different for it to work.
