Hierarchy? I'm sorry but what I would gather from that is more or less the opposite: a kind of communitarian equality, if anything.

But my first instinct was to think that most people, when asked how long they want to live will have difficulty answering beyond current lifespan because we are instinctively trained to think that '100 = old and decrepit' - even if the question does say something along the lines of '100 but in 'good health''.

"for a future in which the suffering and death of aging is banished, all disease controlled through advanced medicine, the vast majority of people still march stolidly towards what they assume to be the same fate as their grandparents [2]. They are conforming."

Again I disagree because this utopian future is still essentially an illusion, which most people immediately recognize (they don't live in the tech bubble?), and in reality, 90 is getting pretty old and that's it for today, and probably for the next long while barring any 'big leaps' in tech. Which may happen, but there's no reason to believe they would.

Science has not really extended life. All we've done is perfected the conditions in which we live, and have learned out to take care of our bodies well.

Like you own a bike and used to run it through the forest, not oil it, parts would fall of. Now we run our bicycles on smooth surfaces, we get checkups, replace parts, oil the wheels. We have not improved bikes, we just extend them more or less towards their current, maximal life span.

Please tell me when they can regrow my hair, or do the simplest thing and make the skin on my face 'not sag'. Then we can talk.
It's not about performance, at least not 95th percentile performance, by far. It's almost never about that, and it's not what I was talking about. I'm totally fine with less than 20% almost always, and often performance just doesn't matter at all (as you say). But - if an architecture is wrong, sometimes the best you can get without rewriting everything could be like 1%. Maybe the requirements can simply not be fulfilled this way. In any case, my comment was mostly about the development process. I don't want to start a heated discussion (I've started too many of them in the past) so all I will say is what I care about is control, in multiple ways.

Add 10% to the economy, let's imagine for once it's passed onto wages, also up 10%.

Rents up 10%. Everyone working longer for the landlords.

Gains go to land under the current system. We already added women to the workforce more, rents went up.

I would also like to ask to whom would the majority of that increase in wealth go? I would argue it wouldn't be to the people doing the moving. It would be to the people driving them to move.
The recently released film Valerian is based on a 70's french comics Valerian & Laureline that is/was totally unknown in the US.

Even more interesting is how much inspiration a certain George Lucas seem to have drawn from them:

I can say from my personal experience that the moments that felt the most lonely in my life were the days I spent going to the university library working on projects / thesis, seeing hundreds of people around me, but not being able to interact with them. Everyday my brain was punishing me for not engaging in possible social interactions.

I spent two months traveling alone and didn't felt lonely at all.

So yeah I think the negative effects of loneliness are just the consequences of a natural mechanism to force us to be social.
I think this is getting aside of the topic of what privacy really is for most people. IRC by default does not encourage endless selfies or oversharing that the modern social networks promote.

I've never seen an ircd cloak instruction page misrepresent what they can and cannot do. While protecting IP addresses is important (which the GDPR also believes in), I think it's also important to not lose perspective of the bigger dangers out there right now such as default user behaviour and conditioning. For example, IRC has never led to huge numbers of people publicly humiliating themselves by bitching about their employers, etc.
Sure would have been nice to give credit, then…

But more importantly, I can tell you that the design recipe isn't enough. That's why we set out to study the notional machine question (paper cited in another response). We most definitely need it too; what we're trying to figure out is what form of notional machine matches best.
It's possible to make a lot of money trading carbon credits, just like you can trading anything else (Al Gore does this). There are also a lot of subsidies for green technology (which corporations can make money from) and in some countries a lot of climate taxes (which governments make money from.) There's just more money to be made in the entire rest of the economy (which is carbon-producing) than there is in building solar panels and shutting down factories.
I would suggest reading the article first. Monarchy isn’t theocracy. The Spanish Inquisition in particular was a power grab by the crown in a time when “two swords” feudalism was giving way to absolute secular monarchy, even in Catholic countries. The (partial) motivation in rooting out heresy was done in a belief that false teaching was dangerous for ignorant people, not to earn God’s approval for the ruler or the country. Grouping actions, circumstances, motivations and outcomes this disparate into a more precise term like “ritual” only creates a need for a new word.

If you like Jerome K. Jerome, you should also check out Saturnin: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1724928.Saturnin It has a great poetic and funny style of classical Czech works.

Make sure you take care of patent issues first—if you're making something that someone else has patented, they can make you stop producing them and/or sue for legal fees. Consult with a patent atty. first if you haven't done so yet. Having said that, epoxy tooling is another lower-cost option besides aluminum.

I wouldn't see it that black and white. If you do it wrong of course you will have a hard time moving away to a different vendor. But if you approach it right and make sure you have the proper abstractions in place and can switch to any other cloud provider or in-house solution without to much hassle. It's all about what cost you want to pay when. Do you want to invest upfront in all development time of frameworks and infrastructure to support your core business API or do you just want to get the MVP out and invest a little more once you established a solid user base?
Did you have (even a vague) source for this - I'm willing to search for it given even a vague gesture? I think this indeed sounds like it could be strong evidence, so I'd love to see it. Indeed, I would also think that a high skill population living mixed with a low skill population would have a higher birth rate than a high skill population NOT near a low skill population.

Since I haven't seen it mentioned here, note that the first post in this thread was on 13 December 2017, with most of the back and forth between botg and TigheW taking place in early January 2018.

Post #14 revived the thread 11 days ago and the last seven or eight posts are from the last 24 hours or so.

Looks like the thread has since been "locked" to prevent further discussion.

Hello - author here. Just wanted to point out that this isn't a new framework, it's a proof of concept that existing GopherJS (go transpiled to javascript) apps can run in Go/wasm with little or no modification. Any future work in this area will hopefully look & feel more like Go and less like something else.

That's a good argument: the development of cities post-AC and post-car strongly favours the current model.

But, is it possible that cities were small because the wrong building style was used? After all, the Spanish colonies to the south of the US are warmer than the South, but had large cities.
That's a client-side solution, not a server-side. The article is focusing on the problem from server-side.

I always return recruiter calls if I’m mid process. Careers are long games. You don’t know when you bump into people again.

Companies have peed in the water enough to make people not return calls. Probably 50% of the companies I’ve interviewed with ghosted me. I’ve had companies take me to the final round, promise an offer, and then say “the position wasn’t funded”. Anyone on LinkedIn has had to deal with unscrupulous headhunters. In aggregate companies and their reps started acting poorly. People return the favor and it’s not a surprise.

The one caveat is backing out of a signed offer is rough and should be handled with grace. Just not showing up isn’t graceful.
Broadly speaking, it started out as a greenfield/experimental project with buy-in from senior management that is now going through the initial phase of productization and productionization. Although the AWS bill sounds expensive the whole project was effectively done by 3 developers including myself (2 backend/full stack and 1 frontend). There were also some deliberate management decisions that greatly prolonged implementation time - we could have easily shaved 8 months off that figure taking a more straightforward path.
Neat! That was my original hope, to move down the component path, but I got nerd-sniped by how well everything worked and started playing with making existing gopherjs apps work. Great article.
If the marginal income tax rates were lower sure, but once you add in how much gets taken off the top by the government and how much child care costs, it really doesn't justify most jobs that make less than 6 figures.
You know we tried this during the Mexican-American war. It turns out the Mexicans are still pretty sore about this.

If borders were a purely economic construct I might agree with you. However, they aren't, not even primarily. Remove modern notions of economics, look into deep history, and borders still exist.

As for Mrs. Clinton, she dreamed she could be President twice. We all know how that worked out for her and unfortunately us.
Your model strongly predicts that fertility of preexisting natives
would be higher in areas with more unskilled immigrants. The
opposite is true, and the effect is not small.

It seems like you have a lot of confounding variables to work through to make this case with such confidence, if you have research that makes this case I would like to see links to it.

I didn't like the one book by Dostoyevsky that we had in English literature class in high school. I think it was the one about Raskolnikov. Found it heavy / morbid / not much interesting. But I've read some novels by other Russian authors (a while ago), and IIRC found some by Chekhov good. Some novels I read about life on farms during the Soviet times were interesting too, cannot remember the authors or book titles right now.

I've typically seen in the developing world that the nanny looks after her kids as well, but families tend to prefer childless nannies for obvious reasons. Very often in such cases the host family will help with some of the child related expenses of the nanny. Much like some kind of communal family.
Data shows the opposite of what you say. I guess that means you are arguing in bad faith?
What % of people is this? Vast majority this isn't the case. Many degrees are worthless so don't lump them in.
That is a good way to put it.

It took 100 years to go from the onset of the printing press to the book form and we are in some weird in between time frame where browsers aren't really enough to do what we want. Conceptually it is going to take something that is revolutionary, yet at the same time extremely familiar... like the book. I bet we would find similar strains in the intervening decades between the printing press and the book.
Sure, but we're not talking about an additional place here or there. When people say childcare they tend to mean professional daycare, no? That's very much people bottlenecked. But if immigrants are more fertile than the locals, which they usually are at least for a while, then if the Economist was right about immigrants being well employed in construction jobs and hairdressers such, you'd expect an sudden influx to put more pressure on childcare, not less.
The full commit message is just as crucial as the first line. Take for example a recent commit to the OBS project on GitHub: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/commit/26d5560da3b7...

The exact commit is as follows:

libobs: Add scene item grouping

Allows the ability to group scene items. Groups
internally are sub-scenes, which allows the ability to
add unique filters and transforms to each group.

Without the full message, I would not know what this commit brought until the changelog is updated on release. Now I know what to expect and why is was committed. In a merge request, I would like to see the same level of reasoning. For example, if there was a new commit pushed in a MR that I already saw that changed one line, I would prefer to see reasoning behind the change.

This is all personal preference though...
Anecdotal, but Agatha Christie popped up in the required reading more than a few times for me from grades 6 through 10 (ages 12 though 16). I went to an average public school in the Midwestern U.S.

> The long term solution is to get off the platform.

Ug. Running untrusted executables on any platform can be trouble. The problem is that by blaming the platform, people keep putting the onus on these OS's, distros, etc to build walls around carefully curated gardens. Gotta take the good with the bad. Either you accept that people can run untrusted executables or you give up the flexibility to build/use/distribute untrusted executables yourself. Sadly it seems as devs grow into larger companies and prefer the latter, they forget their indie beginnings enabled by the former. "What's $100?" they say. "Getting a cert is easy" they say. "If you aren't building anything dangerous, why do you have a problem with curation?" they say. The same anti-freedom arguments are always there in the name of safety.

If you downloaded untrusted Filezilla and executed it raw on any platform it could be an issue. If users required Filezilla to be distributed in the Windows app store, it could be less of an issue. One could argue the fact that installing Windows software is sometimes still like this is because of the lack of restrictions against it. But as users keep complaining and devs stay silent, all platforms including Windows will continue to reduce liberty in the name of safety and you'll feel better.
Ternary does not bring enough of difference in terms of efficiency, just 1.5 times or so.
You make it sound harder than it is.

Server-wise you want either ejabberd or prosody for the latest features. Yes, you need to set up a server once and read some docs, as with every self-hosted service. And if you don't care about encryption enough to read about it you can just enforce TLS for client-to-server and server-to-server connections. On the desktop, Gajim (win/linux/bsd/mac) supports all of the XEPs I mentioned. There are clients for iOS too but I don't know how they work as I don't own any Apple products.

Of course, if you'd rather spend money than time hoping that your provider won't have your conversations stolen, misused or disappear with them that's your prerogative too.
Agreed. Monday Begins on Saturday is amazing - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monday_Begins_on_Saturday
Once there was a time in Europe when every fief couldn't be more happy to get more subjects for free, and the usual travel restriction was on leaving your place, not moving to a new one.

It was the first world war that changed everything.

Things like migration control, passports, visas, formal institute of citizenship, all traces to the time when the imaginary no. 1 boogyman was not Ben Laden and "angry Arab guys," but the German Kaiser and "angry Prussian guys"

The system of rigid citizenship, closed by default borders, and enslavement to a piece of paper called passport was forced onto the world under pretext "if you would not let us do this, the scary Kaiser will be upon you"

This day, it is the permanent surveillance state being pushed into mainstream buy the very same sort of people, and it will be upon the Western countries in no time if that party will not be punched hard in the face with all resolve.
Well, that still makes his math better than that of the Economist.
Does this kind of question depend on what you consider to be the baseline of normal human behaviour? That defines what side of an argument evidence is required. Surely it is possible that human sacrifice was common throughout human history, and that the last couple of thousand years were the exception. How can you know?
The proposition that all gains in productivity are absorbed by rental charges sounds completely off to me. How would that even work?

Just imagine: If housing were that great of an investment, everyone would get enough credit to build, making effectively everyone a landlord.

Extending the right to live to cattle, will quickly kill large part of them off, as businesses will stop providing food and care to them with no expected returns and the cattle isn't adapted enough to survive in the wild.

Extending the right to live to wild animals is essentially void (if we aren't going to exterminate all the carnivores) and will probably cause a couple of ecological disasters as population control hunting will be off limits too.

The best private conversations start by branching away from a public space. It's that juxtaposition that makes each half all the more special (think noisy club/bar vs outside). I think the biggest failing of IM is that it's easy to end up with a declining circle of people whom you communicate with. Without a public space to replenish ideas from, privacy becomes a curse. IRC allows both.
this guys is trolling, seriously, just stop responding to them.

ksk - many hn readers build using free software for places like google, amazon etc, that are trusted all the way up to places like the CIA. Seriously, please troll somewhere else. Basically no one working in almost any open source project wants to be working with an author that bundles in crapware, ESPECIALLY if the author doesn't actually even control the crapware. If you don't get why this is a bad idea you'll have to trust folks who use open source software regularly that this is a bad thing.
