Python: setup.py vs. requirements.txt (2013)
> unless you are still in the SVN stoneage that requires a copy of each file

Maybe you are thinking of CVS? In SVN, creating branches has always been cheap in both space and time.
I recollect quite a similar incident with a friend of mine who had high motivations but lack of willingness to pursue the product they started. I believe you either need to talk this out clearly and define milestones on what you expect him to do. If the milestones are complete in a given period of time, nothing like it. If he still doesn't put efforts to contribute, then I would recommend that it's time to have 'the talk' with him whether he would like to pursue this further, or not.

> I think you’re retroactively claiming that Google actively anticipated this in their choice at the beginning of using Perforce as an SCM.

Oh I didn't mean to imply exactly that, but really good point. I just meant that it seems like folks don't typically _anticipate_ these issues so much as they're forced into it by ossifying velocity in the face of sudden wild success. I know at least a few examples of this happening -- but you're right, those folks were using Git.

In Google's case, maybe it's simply that their centralized VCS led them down a certain path, their tooling grew out of that & they came to realize some of the benefits along the way. I'd be interested to know too. :)

I bitch a lot about npm, but then I remember that time when python's package distribution drove me to learn a new language.

Is there a similar work explaining how to distribute python packages in a straightforward manner? Is that article compatible with this one?

>> Any high charge-back industry

Not if your the person buying. Bitcoin guarantees 1 way movement of 'currency', it makes no guarantees on your product or service. This is why charge-backs exist.

>> With respect to volatility, that's largely a function of very thin trading volumes

That only get thinner due to limited (and loosable) deflationary currency and increasing fees due to extrodinary power consumption.

>>In a mass adoption scenario, immediately converting to fiat currencies through exchanges will not be necessary.

Not possible due to volatility and fees. See previous.

>> Absolutely false. The failure rate of exchanges has dramatically declined over the last several years.

Brick and mortar banks still get hacked, if they havent solved it, unregulated crypto exchanges certainly wont. The problem can be mitigated in traditional currency by simply 'undo'ing the damage, or holding a regulated institution responsible.

You've conflated privacy into this argument, which is strange because normal currencies have privacy. Crypto generally does not.

But I should be able to characterize their behavior for christ sake or talk about it. It is descriptor. Also, Germany 1890 was less racist then Germany 1933. The original argument was "it is ok because 1890 Germany boys did something similar". Given who those boys were, why they did the same and how country developed later, it is absolutely relevant.

Not everyone in 1890 Germany was racist. There were big political fights between anti-Jewish groups and those who wanted to keep Jewish emancipation and freedom alive. Seriously, in general, the worst person of period X is not typical representative of that period.

Also, parent said that: "The Prussian junkers were really not too fond of the Nazis, and were behind several attempts to assassinate Hitler including the July 20 plot."

Junkers description in around 1930, including racism, is absolutely relevant to that argument. In 1930, they were supporting monarchism, were anti-democratic, were largely racist even by contemporary standards. Manhood defined through eagerness to go to war, willingness to kill/hurt/be hurt and related manhood rites are not coincidental.

They give all sorts of reasons.
I worked for a gas station that did credit checks on low-level employees. They said that if a person had bad credit, they were more likely to steal from work. For some folks that work in finance, they require the employee to be bonded by an insurance company. Unfortunately, bankruptcy means they won't do that, and I'm guessing bad credit does as well. The reason for the bankruptcy doesn't matter, which is rather unfortunate since many folks have had bad luck between the housing market bust and medical expenses.

Oddly enough, I later worked at a pharmacy chain for many years. They didn't care about your finances. For front store cashiers, there were no checks. Manager and above got criminal background checks and a single drug test, either when hired or when promoted. Pharmacy employees were the same.
> we're talking about real, measurable effects in this world, right now.

No, we're talking about the appropriateness of deplatforming, and I was pointing out one reason why it's a bad idea, of you are going to do that at all, to do it on the basis simply of ab organization's “real, measurable effects in this world, right now”.

> NOI is a fringe cult at this point

Yes, that's why deplatforming actually might impact its future potential significantly.

> Its angels-on-the-head-of-a-pin to postulate a future where Louis Farrakhan needs to be dealt with by a Facebook or a Twitter.

By the time an organization has the present influence where you see this need, deplatforming is likely largely irrelevant to it.

That's not to say you shouldn't still do it, but you've missed the point where it really would have made a difference.

malloc() is usually implemented in C [0] and to be honest I'm not sure why do you think it wouldn't be? Of course you need OS API calls to actually get some memory (unless you want to operate on statically defined memory buffer) but well it's still C.

It gives a new perspective but it doesn't allow for very visually interesting photos. The shots are (by nature of drone photography) almost always composed exactly the same. The different landscapes in the article are beautiful, but there are basically two compositions in the article: the majority have a vertical composition looking straight down with a path or river going from top to bottom (sometimes it goes from left to right). There are a couple of shots that show a landscape from a non-vertical angle.

>You can argue drone photography, is the most important camera innovation of the past 100 years.

Really? I mean you could, but it seems silly. I'd say digital image sensors are by far a much more important innovation. Without those, you don't have drone photography, or you do, but it's so prohibitively expensive that it's not available to anyone who can do interesting things with it. Without digital image sensors you don't have camera phones, you don't have GoPros, you don't have dashcams, you don't have bodycams, you don't have drone cameras, you don't have cameras mounted on the sides of rockets, etc. You don't have the DSLR revolution that got high quality cameras in the hands of amateurs last decade.

How exactly does the model specify which loads/stores are okay to be ignored or reordered (etc.)? I feel like anything that gets close to the essence of the C/C++/Rust model (such as allowing the optimization in my example above), ends up with something pretty similar to the "allocation id" idea.

As a specific example, consider the difference between these two versions of my example above:

int f() {
int i = 0;
*(&i) = 10;
return i;
}

and the original:

int g(int *p) {
int i = 0;
*p = 10;
return i;
}

If a call like g(rand()) ends up with p == &i, the unoptimized versions of that and of an f() call execute exactly the same sequence of memory accesses, and yet the optimization I mention above only applies to g. In essence, the source of the number "&i" seems to matter.

Political aspects of Brexit aside, I had no idea Britain's food and fuel situation was so dire in the event of a Hard Brexit. I would have assumed they were more self-sufficient - the near-doomsday predictions coming from civil service is really sobering. It sucks that the US is contributing to this problem right now (in many ways, really).

Can they disentangle themselves from this even if they manage to get the government to move in this direction? Is starting the process of exiting the EU something that can be taken back, given that it seems to not be a realistic option? I've seen differing opinions on this.

There is just like 40 years difference. Aristocratic boys 20 years old in 1890 were men running things in 1914 (start of WWI). Kids born in 1890 were 40 years old in 1930 - the generation that started WWII.

I used Zotero through my MA and into my PhD, when I discovered and began writing in LaTeX in emacs/AucTeX instead of LibreOffice. I used the Better BibTeX plugin [0] to maintain a BibLaTeX file, but as I developed my emacs skills I moved to RefTeX.

At that point I realised that my BibLaTeX file was really a mess. Better BibTeX created tons of needless double curly brackets {{like this}} in the BibLaTeX file, making searching it directly a pain. And it created lots of @misc entries, the BibLaTeX entry of last resort, when it should have made @url's and other things.

Zotero has massively benefited my work, but it's also been something of a training wheel which in the longer term slowed me down. Emacs/AucTeX/RefTeX does everything Zotero does (at least according to my use) but faster, cleaner, more holistically, and with more features (eg crossref'ing entries). And two years on I'm still cleaning up that Better BibTeX's BibLaTeX file.

I applaud the concrete predictions, but like all the sky-is-falling things I've read about Trump and the tariffs which haven't (yet?) come to pass, I think Stross's are over the top and business will continue as usual. We'll see, it's good he's stockpiling food and medicine since that's consistent with his worldview, but I wonder if we'll learn anything from the outcome since one of us will be very, very incorrect.

The Northern Ireland bit was interesting to me. Maybe I misunderstood the tone but it seemed to me that Stross wanted a customs border between Northern Ireland and Britain, and no such border between it and Ireland? That seems bizarre to me if you think of the UK as one country, and Ireland as a different one. Or am I misreading it? If it's untenable for the borders to work that way, it seems to me Northern Ireland isn't (not "shouldn't be" but specifically "isn't") a part of the British people's nation already, and borders should be re-drawn to reflect that.

Any executive team is a conspiracy against the trading public (among other parties), and insider trading laws are used to punish defectors from that conspiracy. Thus these laws harm the trading public and the economy as a whole. By definition, a CEO isn't a defector, since she's running the conspiracy. Jr. VPs like a CIO, though, should definitely be careful when attempting to profit from nonpublic knowledge.

I used Zotero while going through University and it seemed revolutionary at the time. There wasn't really anything else that could properly import the citation info from journals, web sites, etc so easily. Most of them you would have to type everything in manually. Zotero changed all of that and truly made it easy. Glad to see that it has kept getting better and better.

The article lays out a great many potential outcomes from a bad deal, though.

There's many, many reasons in our world today that you might need to declare bankruptcy, and being unable to manage your finances is only one.

Brexit is an entire different category from Trump. I say this as a left-leaning US resident: We're not in nearly the trouble that Britain would be in in the event of the kind of nasty outcome they could get from a bad Brexit agreement. Just northern Ireland alone is a huge risk given how nasty the Troubles were and how fragile that peace is. If you combine shattered peace (and resulting conflict/terrorism spikes) along with difficulty importing food/essentials and the natural spike in xenophobia that tends to come in times of suffering, there's a lot at risk.

I think Stross's goal here is to enumerate all of the things that COULD go wrong, and provide a basic explanation of why each one could happen. It does a decent job of that even if it comes off as aggressively alarmist - the reality is that even in the event of a bad deal, not all of them would come to pass. On the other hand, more than a few of them coming to pass at once would be devastating.

Just food or medicine shortages would be potentially crippling, the economy is going to suffer no matter what (which will lead to jobs losses), etc.

Agreed on the agreed-value policies. We unfortunately had a claim with a car covered by Hagerty and they couldn't have been more professional, courteous, or speedy in resolving the claim. (We were 0% at fault in the accident, but even if we had been, I suspect the treatment would have been the same.)
