There is a certain accelerationism to the idea. If you don’t believe in the welfare state this is a mechanism for heightening the contradictions of redistribution.
As far as I know they aren't doing 'the whole manufacturing' in the temporary building, just final 'general assembly' of completed components.
Tesla's valuation certainly is insane. They're valued higher than GM and Ford, the former moves over 100x more vehicles and both are actually profitable.

If you value Tesla as battery company that happens to make cars, it's just as silly since it's such a small portion of their revenue.
I don't really like how sensationalistic this is, there are way more problems than just forced labor going into manufacturing. Energy used by manufacturing, local waste and pollution that goes unchecked, rampant corruption in factory owners, monopolistic control of the factories, ports, transit of goods, export, shipping, etc.

We're a LONG way from freely competitive market and open, transparent regulation would do WONDERS for it.
The alpha calculation can (and should) use floating point math. If the market has a midpoint of $99.99 with a bid/ask of $99.98/$100.00, you could compute a bunch of signals and end up with an alpha-adjusted midpoint of $100.00383736383..., at which point you’d convert it back to fixed-point and then try to buy $100.00
Probably about the same. I'm presuming that the people able to pay the current high prices already have pretty high freedom of movement.
First and foremost, you are one person. Your experience does not represent the full range of experience, nor do anecdotes from people you've met.

Next, PTSD can cause flashbacks in several forms. Many people with the illness never have harmful flashback dreams.

I said that this is causing a mental addiction. So on top of everything effecting people differently, these require particular forms of thinking. If you don't know that marijuana can suppress dreams or use it for that purpose, you won't develop this addiction.

A mental addiction isn't a "lack of self control" or "self imposed" as you say. It works by a similar means to the placebo effect, where your belief that something has an effect leads to the effect.

>It seems that there ate a ton of people speaking on behalf of both actual smokers and people with chronic illnesses and disorders.If you don't have PTSD, you can't comprehend it, nor should you try to.

Seems to me that you shouldn't assume what diseases other people have suffered from. As you aren't the only one with first hand experience.

>Those kinds of "medicines" work by making you numb, not treating the actual problems

Though it's true that the prescribed alternatives are not cures, neither is marijuana. Both help you manage symptoms, but can lead to other problems. Therapy has been the only thing shown to be effective as a cure.
>“Diablo 1 was the best game in the franchise."

That is a bold statement, but I am inclined to agree. Obviously D2 is bigger, prettier, has more varied classes, more items, more everything. I absolutely adore that game, and I have spend hundreds and hundreds of hours playing it.

But the original... It just has that darker and more grim, less cartoons tone. Plus it came out when I was 10 years old, which obviously influences my opinion a lot.
I think there's probably some cultural assumptions in your list. I tend to assume Neapolitan style when talking about pizza, but I know this is not the default for most people.

That is - 450C (at least), cooking time under 90s, thin / crisp crust, with minimal toppings. In AU this is not hard to find, but there certainly are plenty of chain pizza restaurants that go for the heavy, piled-on, thick crust, 10 minutes to bake/boil. I gather in the US there are regions where the latter (Chicago perhaps?) is the default, but I'm not sure how common the genuine Neapolitan style is - in availability or popularity.

Anyway, to your list -- if toppings are flowing at all, you've got too many toppings. You definitely do want high protein flour - at least 12%, or higher if you can find it. When I lived in the UK this meant imported Canadian flour as the domestic product simply couldn't do it. In AU it's hard to find much above 12%. If you need to cool your pizza for 2-5 minutes before cutting, it's too big. : ) Agreed on avoiding cheap (or rather, low-quality) ingredients. Less is more on toppings - but go for the most exquisitely flavoured varieties you can find. Sugar .. I think is not needed. Tomatoes are high in sugars, and good flour really shouldn't need the additional sugars for the yeast. If it's for flavour only, then I can't help.
I don't quite understand his point. Is it that awareness is an important product of a liberal arts education that shouldn't be undervalued?

"This is Water" speaks to that idea, but it seems disingenuous to claim that a liberal arts education is a particularly effective way of raising awareness. It often seems to take the automatic thoughts that he projects on the audience and replace them with other automatic thoughts, rather than providing tools for people to break that cycle in themselves and other people.

But, if I'm misunderstanding his point, please make me aware. David Foster Wallace is someone that other people I respect show respect to (Jason Wilkes in Burn Math Class), but this speech left me puzzled.
Phantom traffic jams, and why lane expansion isn’t really successful

Given the median water pipes in many cities are 75+ years old, it's going to take a pretty long time for the new regulation to have much effect.
I think its sweden that has one of the most liberal migration policies but yes, the idea is to let people move, which would tap into the potential like.. 66 trillion or more dollars we waste by using byzantine trade policies and silly immigration controls. Protectionism is used by the lazy to hopefully shore up against "der taking arr jerbs" when it does nothing but tank the economy.
Except it doesn’t work like that. I’m from Bangladesh. What would happen if 100 million Bangladeshis moved to the US? Would we continue to have a first world legal system, etc? The answer is no. Instead, we would be tearing down the statue of liberty: https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/05/26/world/asia/bangladesh-...

We know this will happen. Bangladesh was in fact a grand experiment in this regard. After independence in the 1970s, an intellectual elite gave the country a western style constitution, with principles of secularity and freedom. What did the Bangladeshis do with it? They quickly repealed those provisions, made Islam the official religion, etc.

It is a popular mental dysfunction in the west to deny that culture matters. To believe that the west’s material wealth is the result of random chance, rather than what people believe, how they act, and what they do.

DNS Poisoning or BGP Hijacking Suspected Behind Trezor Wallet Phishing Incident
Fair enough. But this has nothing to do with Mozilla's actions. It was as GP said. It includes things like their incompetence in dealing with a build process that creates transpiled/minified code. Even when I gave them all the source and the build instructions (npm run build) they still couldn't comprehend what was going on. Yes, I know it's strange since Mozilla makes a browser with a JavaScript engine.

Edit: I should add that after 2 weeks of back and forth emails the dude was finally able to build it then blamed me for not mentioning he needed to run "npm run build", even though I did mention it AND it's in package.json AND it's mentioned in the (very short and concise) readme.txt.

So after this exasperating experience he just took down the extension without warning and said it's because it contains Google Analytics.

I would have happily removed Google Analytics from the extension. The dude had my source for 2 weeks and could have told me about that at any time, but decided to tell me after 2 weeks of mucking around, after he had already removed the extension.

It was me that decided it was not worth the hassle to have the extension on their store. I just left it off.
Incidentally, there has been some recent publication indicating that this may not be true, albeit for different reasons than the typical Radium Girls pathology:

Or Fortnite, or Minecraft.

I'm not sure how to solve for this, but I'm trying to instill that conversations and interactions have to be two way, so just because "you are interested in X" doesn't mean that talking at someone over and over about things they are not interested in isn't a way to foster satisfying interactions for all parties involved.

A parent might placate and be always "oh that's so interesting!", but their peers? Their peers might ignore them leaving the kid confused as to the response.
>Human history can be viewed as a slowly dawning awareness that we are members of a larger group. Initially our loyalties were to ourselves and our immediate family, next, to bands of wandering hunter-gatherers, then to tribes, small settlements, city-states, nations. We have broadened the circle of those we love. We have now organized what are modestly described as super-powers, which include groups of people from divergent ethnic and cultural backgrounds working in some sense together — surely a humanizing and character building experience. If we are to survive, our loyalties must be broadened further, to include the whole human community, the entire planet Earth. Many of those who run the nations will find this idea unpleasant. They will fear the loss of power. We will hear much about treason and disloyalty. Rich nation-states will have to share their wealth with poor ones. But the choice, as H. G. Wells once said in a different context, is clearly the universe or nothing.

Functional programming paradigms in modern JavaScript: Partial Application
Sure, at its basics, society has needs, known or unknown, good or bad so companies are created to fill the needs. Companies survive if they reach enough people with their solution.

Sure there are ways to manipulate needs but at its basics companies are supposed to benefit society by filling those needs.

We are fed the idea that companies are created to profit the investors but profits are a side effect of meeting needs.
> Immigrants from parts of the world with bad institutions will likely lower the quality of the institutions in their new countries

The world's leading democracy, the U.S., is populated almost entirely by immigrants from non-democratic parts of the world and their decedents. With every wave of immigration, the claims are the same: They don't share our values, they won't assimilate, etc. It goes back to German immigrants around the time of the American Revolution (Ben Franklin had some particularly harsh words for them), and then Irish, Italian, Chinese, Eastern European, Latino, Catholic (Papists!), Muslim, Jewish, etc. etc.

The results never seem to match the theory; the current democracy and institutions of the U.S. are built by those people. Democracy means faith in governance by the people, and the very good news is that it works out very well relative to other forms of government.
A deeper problem for the rich countries is that the entire economic system is built for perpetual inflation. Everything has to always go up. Free migration is deflationary. Wide nominal wage declines would cause cascading default across the entire economy.
High quantity immigration could be defined as a sybil attack on the native population's norms.
I don't want anyone to misunderstand this as an advertisement. And it's an Australian website. If you're still keen shoot me a PM.
My professor always said, ideas are like hemorrhoids, every asshole sooner or later gets some.

"If people could migrate freely around the world to seek work, economists crudely estimate that world GDP would roughly double, and that most of this enormous windfall would go to the poorest people on Earth. There is literally a hundred trillion dollar bill on the sidewalk for bringing together third-world labor and first-world legal systems, capital, and service demand."

You realize that many, if not most third world countries are third world countries because of the mentality, religion (won't mention it, no worries) and tribal thinking? This is exactly the problem we have in Europe. I don't mind immigrants, not at all. But they come here and bring their beliefs, values (about women, violence etc.) and tribal thinking and create here exactly the problems they have in their home country. They see our apples and they want to have apples too. But they don't get the idea that the apples could have anything to do with the tree they are growing on.

> Instead the first world does its best to wall itself off from economic migrants

Wouldn't free economic migration lower the standard of living in the wealthiest of countries?
(1) Just because a country isn't in the Schengen area doesn't mean that you don't have freedom of movement. Switzerland isn't but via EFTA most EU citizens are free to live there -- the Eastern bloc included. Same with Norway.

(2) The accession process is meant to smooth the transition, nobody is suggesting opening up the floodgates tomorrow and seeing what happens, that's hyperbolic. Any abolition of movement restrictions would have to be gradual to be successful, and you could use EU accession as a model.

(3) EU member states are required to meet certain very high standards on social services and welfare. The whole bloc has socialized medicine. Member states have reciprocity agreements ensuring migrants have access to the same level of care they'd get back home (look up EHIC cards for instance). This is not much different from how Canada administers social programs between provinces.

Europe absolutely has free social services, democracy and freedom of movement -- and a very successful economy. The GDP of the EU is 21T PPP adjusted in 2017. The US is 18T.

Why do you assume that the global oversupply of labor is going to diminish? It seems quite plausible that the next, say, 50 years might bring an increase in the oversupply of labor, especially as the living standards rise and that labor becomes more expensive while at the same time the cost of automating the same tasks is shrinking.
Aside: What do you do for a living?
It’s starting to happen already. The rich can migrate freely today. And their are more rich everyday in poor countries. We used to send money back to our relatives in india. Now they could be sending us money as their land investments have been very profitable. Once google translate is a little more flawless and real-time from audio to audio, we will see real movement. Already with Uber and internet it’s much easier to travel without being scammed.

> Billionaire's don't hoard cash

Velocity’s relationship with income is well documented. (Note, too, that velocity most properly measures the purchase of goods and services. Transaction velocity also includes investment. Even that goes down as income goes up.)
Yep. Same reason YouTube wanted to pull the Blender videos. Very popular content that's freely licensed costs them money. Hosting isn't free. We need more distributed platforms where everyone who views the content can help serve it to their neighbours as well.
Not sure anyone would care about that cost. Generally people are glad to waste CPU time instead of human time.
I'm not trying to completely solve the problem. I'm trying to be less complicit in it.

I'm thinking of the story of the English factory workers that refused to use the products of slave labor. It didn't stop slavery but they at least weren't complicit.
Seconded, there are widely deployed alternatives, specifically rclone (mount) and plexdrive. The former is, for backup purposes, better used via it's CLI, mostly due to how it relays IO errors up and the fact that many applications are too dumb to retry filesystem errors, or even not crash completely.
I'll channel the spirit of Marjory Stoneman Douglas for a moment to point out that "swamp" is not a swamp but a slow-moving river. Quoting from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marjory_Stoneman_Douglas :

> Her most influential work was the book The Everglades: River of Grass (1947), which redefined the popular conception of the Everglades as a treasured river instead of a worthless swamp.

The view that it is worthless swamp, best turned into real estate, sugar cane, or other agriculture has greatly damaged the Everglades ecosystem. An ecosystem which replenishes the Biscayne Aquifer that the Miami metropolitan area drinks from, and which provides a bubble of fresh water to help prevent saltwater intrusion.

Going back to the main point, none of the natural land surface of Florida is below sea level, other than the trivial case of land exposed during low tide ("sea level" means "mean sea level").

If there were land below sea level, it would be covered by water. Most of the rock in Florida is porous limestone, which isn't an effective barrier to water. Parts of Miami flood during king tides, simply because of water rising up through the ground.

Or, go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida and see "Lowest point: Atlantic Ocean,
Sea level".
I know of certain firms that will never reject retail orders unless they're truly invalid and will just fill at a loss to keep their flow.
Generally on the internet there is a lot of "that's just capitalism" and then the discussion degrades and it's just a bunch of "that's capitalism too" and you realize you are comparing real world capitalism to someone's theory that is bound by nothing and I'm not sure there is any point in that.
>It actually looked like they had produced so many that they didn't have enough drivers to haul them away.

There's actually quite a large driver shortage right now. On one route we use at work, the rate doubled in the last year. The report was that some of the drivers are just fine with the life they were living before they got a big bump in pay, and want to drive less and make the same money.
What about corporate policies that refuse to do business with minors ? You can’t even use Uber as a 16 year old.
Random unsubstantiated theory. I recall reading a book on the Celts which revealed that they actually had substantial technology before the Romans arrived. One of the innovations was a carefully operated defense network whereby shouted messages were repeated across long distances such as quiet valleys in order to distribute general news or to summons geographically disparate tribes in the event of invasion. Since Celtic culture was substantial in the area, could the sites be related to the placement of messaging centers? An intertidal zone would make sense to such a network as boats could easily arrive and depart at all times of day.

"He took care of my brother and I." "He took care of my brother and me."

Which is correct? Remove the non-self part.

"He took care of I." "He took care of me."

"Me" is correct because it's the object.

"My brother and I climbed a hill." "My brother and me climbed a hill."

Which is correct? Remove the non-self part.

"I climbed a hill." "Me climbed a hill."

"I" is correct because it's the subject.

If it wasn't that big of a deal, they would have hit the target before 5am the day after they were supposed to.
I can understand the culture argument in smaller or isolated communities. Sometimes they can feel like they dislike incomers from the next town over.

With the free market in the EU why has the whole population of Greece not yet moved to Germany or France for the opportunity? Even with freedom of movement many won't want to, or have financial and family ties. The biggest surge came when the poorer Eastern European nations joined the EU and we had noticeable Polish and other communities forming - but were far from being swamped. The UK didn't become less the UK because of it. London, Manchester, Liverpool and the other major cities have had big immigrant communities since the early 1800's, long before passports and border controls. Border controls only really started in WW1.

America is more interesting. It was built on immigration and looks back to origins far more than many other nation's immigrants do - as seen by so many self identifying as Italian American, Irish American etc, and visiting their roots in Europe or wherever. With that identity so commonly given, it _is_ a big part of the culture already. That melting pot became America. It is America.

Why did it stop being a source of pride and development and become something to discourage? They don't lack space or opportunity.

Is there a metholodgy for bayesian analysis that avoids the choice of a specific prior but instead provides conclusions in the form of boundary/regions in "prior-space" and their effect on belief? For example, it would be incredibly useful if the output of research allowed a reader to gauge support of the conclusion in a minimally subjective way by explaining what effect choices in prior have on results. I'm not a statistician so I'm assuming this is a well understood thing, but would be curious to know if and how it is practiced.
