I have to disagree on your phrasing. I have been using a Hackintosh for over three years now. I agree, that it was a hassle in the past. It isn't anymore. I haven't had a serious technical problem with my PC since the beginning of Sierra. Even major updates don't pose a serious problem, if you have the correct hardware.

However, picking the correct hardware and figuring out the necessary basics is a challenge in itself. You need patience and technical knowledge. So it is far from going into the store and purchasing an iMac. That is certain. But it is not as dark as you are putting it, IMHO.
Ugh, it seems broken and not actually protecting rights, but rather forcing terms of service to apply in lawsuits.
We already have a mostly-unified central European power market. IIRC the whole central Europe grid is in a single market.

How do you know the Nordic model won't work if you don't try it? Do you have data to indicate that Nordic model prisons don't work if there's violence? Citation needed or it's not a helpful anecdote. Did you know they're trying it in North Dakota? [1] By making this kind of unsubstantiated claim in support of the system as-is without making any suggestions of your own you're implicitly advocating for the status quo.

And of course some people have severe criminality issues but IMO those should be treated. Even treated as mental health issues.

I work for Google on Search Ads 360 (formerly DoubleClick Search). All the frontend code I write uses Angular Dart and I love it. The best thing about it is the Intellij integration. I've never worked with an editor with semantic auto complete and jump to definition, so it's unbelievably awesome. Static analysis catches tons of errors, dev cycle is super short even for our giant codebase.

I have some experience with React. My impression is that the React model is easier to understand and use at first, but may run into issues as the project grows. I have only ever worked on solo projects from scratch in React, and only ever on multiple 100k loc projects in Angular Dart.
Sure. It's a mix of:

* technical topics (review to substantial depth on every topic we cover)

* interview management (being friendly and helping candidates get through as much as they can in the time allotted)

* grading calibration (so all of our interviewers give repeatable, consistent scores on every dimension of our rubric)

* a lot of practice (mock interviews with other interviewers, taking over one section at a time from existing interviews, eventually flying solo)
Sounds interesting.

Self-driving is expected to bring down ridesharing costs. As costs go down, ridership goes up. As ridership goes up, traffic goes up. Currently I can get around by bicycle, rideshare, bus, subway, trolley, and rail. With the exception of the subway, all of those are slowed down by increased vehicle traffic. The tipping point you're talking about may be city streets becoming gridlocked.

Then there's the bit rot problem. Most of this self driving tech is software. Over time, software becomes old, eventually is abandoned, and has to be rewritten. Assuming the cityscape was changed by 2030 (this is impossible, but just for argument's sake) we could have broken legacy tech by 2050. But we will either be stuck with it, or middle-aged people will have to start driving 30+ year old cars as taxis, as no young people will have gotten a drivers license, and all the self driving cars won't have steering wheels.

I think that publicly exposing your build/deployment system is a very bad idea. It contains too much sensitive and valuable information (credentials, commits, commit author names, paths, hostnames, scripts etc.) and it is too hard to make it secure the right way.

Unfortunately, many people do that. For example, here in New Zealand there is a new startup Onzo (bike sharing). When they launched, I tried to google about them (just out of curiosity). And in 1 minute I found their Jenkins server exposed to everyone as well. I could see how their build process works, who commits what etc. I decided to try to login using simple credentials (something like admin:password) and it didn't work. But there was a Register button. "Why not?" I thought and clicked it and created my own account. And voila, it gave admin permissions by default - I could delete their projects, change variables etc. Emailed them about that.

Moral: never expose your build/deployment systems. If you really want to expose some parts (for whatever reason), then use/write client/UI that has no permissions. 'Build Status' badge is a good example -- it exposes build status info, but doesn't show too much and doesn't give any permissions whatsoever.

Assuming you own your own home

Pretty much every significant apartment building built in Chicago in the last decade has had EV chargers in the garage.

The problem is that there aren't enough EV spaces to go around for all the residents who have electric cars.

If you're renting a stand-alone home, isn't there an EV station you can plug into a regular outlet? Naturally, the charging time would be slower than a 220V connection or whatever is needed, but if it's charing overnight, is that not an option?

(Don't own an electric car yet, so I'm not up on chargers)

No, that's a Ponzi scheme. Ponzi schemes and pyramid schemes are very similar. Essentially, a Ponzi scheme is where you pay people based on the enrollment of new people. A pyramid scheme is where the payout is based entirely on the new recruit's ability to recruit more people.
The basis of Lisp isn't lambda calculus. Lambda calculus doesn't have a concept of its own expressions being data manipulated by lambda calculus. There is no quote operator in lambda calculus.

All the terms in lambda calculus are functions; there are no conses, symbols, numbers, strings, nothing. (Immutable) cons cells can be simulated in lambda calculus using functions. This being in the sense that functions resembling cons, car and cdr can be expressed such that car(cons(x, y)) = x, and cdr(cons(x, y)) = y.

Lisp arises from the realization that expressions built out of trees that consist of pairs can be executed using an eval function, in a way that incorporates some concepts from lambda calculus, such as anonymous functions.

I once sold a four seater IKEA sleeper sofa to a lady who came to pick it up in an Audi A6 estate. We managed to fit the entire thing inside her car (with the rear seats down) and close the trunk. That is an estate car.

The volume in liters may be comparable between a Model X and (say) the Audi A6, but most large objects one needs to transport (furniture etc.) tend to be relatively cubic in shape.

If there wasn't a need for having big boxy trunks, surely we would all have transitioned to the (undeniably cooler) fastback-esque shape of a Model X / Mercedes CLS / BMW GT-series long before electric cars became a thing.
The financial industry created self-regulatory organizations (SROs) to police themselves (in theory) more effectively than the government. They set up rules of ethics and policies and have the power to fine companies and bar individuals. Agencies like the SEC let them take the lead, but will step in to investigate fraud and crimes. The industry may need to mature, but this would probably be the most sensible solution.
Did Norway actually pass a ban with a date of 2025? Your linked article is from 2016 and says, "Yet there is some denial from other right-wing representatives that the move has been confirmed."
I think its safe to say we're experiencing a true Renaissance of petrol powered cars right now, which makes the EV options fairly unappealing to "car" people such as myself (generally speaking). As for the commodity type of car buyer, the price seems to be the issue I hear most often. Why spend 40k on an EV with limited range and utility, when you could drop 30k on a mid-sized sedan that gets excellent gas mileage, has comical amounts of power, and has a level of luxury that would have required a 6 figure investment 10 years ago? Not to mention you can take it on a long drive without having to pre-plan the entire thing.

In a few years, when gas prices are high again I'm sure we'll see the EVs start picking up, and at that point I suspect the charging station issue will solve itself.

"there is no constitutional right to have electrical power"

In Germany it isn't an explicit right, but some judges ruled that your existential minimum to live includes heat and power.
It seems the point here is to ask if they should be considered as such (potentially via changing the law), not how they are viewed under the current legal framework (where as they said, the answer is no).
Would you care to elaborate how you see the Upwork Monolith is trending to become harmful to freelancers? It would be nice to see your thought on this.

I'd like to see a more balanced Upwork type of freelance work, where perhaps a lot more people are given the chance to participate through quality, rather than quantity.
Well, to most of them, sure...I guess I wasn't clear. I meant legislation as in regulation and laws, i.e. negative/pessimistic approaches adding more rules/punishments as opposed to positive/optimistic approaches without imposing more restrictions. I personally don't want to see government involvement at all (i.e. any legislation), but I am just dismayed at which legislation since we're sadly past the point, in many people's eyes, of whether there should be any at all.
that is an absurd standard to hold.

In most cities, the cost of time to park long enough to charge would exceed the cost of electricity.

Alternatively i would suggest: when the paradigm has shifted, the ancillary processes shift accordingly rather than cling onto some cloned reliquary husk of gasoline culture.
It was not intended to provide privacy, the the distributed data store. If you want privacy you probably just want to have a private swarm, which is perfectly fine to setup. Just implement a client with a whitelist or another mechanism for the privacy you want.
Proposal for Custom Test Frameworks in Rust
It really depends on what you consider the "hard" part about making electric cars to be. Do you think that the design and engineering of an electric car is the difficulty? Or is it manufacturing millions of them at scale? If the former is the real difficulty, then you might be able to make sense of the Tesla stock price; if it's the latter, then the traditional auto-manufacturers should be able to easily come into the EV market transfer their brands crush Tesla on greater manufacturing quality and efficiency.
It was refreshingly insightful. It clearly illustrates the problem with “no platforming,” a concept that is inherently censorship.
If the landlord bought the charger station, they'd up your rent by what the market would bear for parking spots with EV-charging capacity.

So you install it at your expense, sell it at the depreciated price when you move out, and the landlord recovers the cost by upping the rent for the next EV driver looking for a new apartment. Or they don't, and you remove it and take it with you when you leave, paying the electrician labor again on both ends.
> Are computerized elections understandable to laypersons?

What do you mean "No"? The ubiquity of cell phones alone makes it self-evident. What YOU mean is not described by your assertion.

> Worse; even if the election was tallied faithfully by a computerized system, a demagogic candidate can whip up fervour and call the election into question.

That's not worse. That's part of the path to acceptance.

> The paper ballot industry doesn't exist.

Tell that to the Lottery machine makers and ticket manufacturers. It's a much stronger lobby than the "e-voting" block (if you can even cobble together such an alliance).
I think a cool layer on top of this would be to create a P2P network where you can 'friend' certain peers and produce a reddit-like aggregation of new content from various sources.

- Friend another user by adding their key and IP to a trust group.

- When your client boots up, it connects to friend nodes and downloads their recent DHT.

- DHTs from all friends are summed to sort the hashes by descending frequency, perhaps with a time decay factor.

- Display reddit-like UI of content to User: see which files are recently most popular among the set of all your friends.

Possible improvements:

- User could customize time vs vote weighting, script custom sort rules

- Give certain peers greater vote weighting ('best friend' vs 'acquaintance')

- Allow peers to 'tag' hashes to create subreddit like collections of things.

- Allow attachment of metadata to hashes - title, description, etc - figuring out how to handle discrepancies between sources here could be tricky.

- Make client automatically re-host content in your DHT: hosting IS the upvote
> Separating variable declaration and reassignment at a glance makes code more clear.

Hrm, maybe. Python does well not using them - if you reassign something, it's being reassigned. Maybe, since declaration is more common, make declaration the default and reassignment explicit?

> Indenting loop bodys makes code more clear

Glad you agree.

> curly braces won't suddenly break

They do all the time, everytime indentation (how people read coe) gets out of sync with braces. Hence avoiding redundancy.

> Keeping lines short makes it nicer to work with in various editor setups.

Displaying code to match the screen is the editors job. Sometimes your screen is 30 characters, sometimes it's a lot more.
This, while not really being nuanced, strikes the most important point. Trust.

Building trust for a freelancer is hard, especially one working remote with little on-site. Transparency usually helps in these settings.

I've had to work on projects as a freelancer where there simply wasn't much progress for weeks because they were such monstrosities, that trust and a prose-documentation of my work was the only thing keeping me afloat. (think 5 different languages talking to each other via SOAP, consuming 3 different databases, all with encoding problems between every possible step)

Just being able to point at all the screenshots from the bazillion different debugging windows, log diffs, etc. would have made things much easier back then. Swapping me out for someone else two weeks into this project would have been a terrible mistake, but besides my assurances and some prose the manager had to trust me. Bad for him, bad for me.

>I think it's about time we build a "bad people" list, which companies can consult before providing service. And if any company doesn't respect it, we can social media mob them into compliance.

Who gets to decide on who goes on that list? This is a very dangerous predicament that could shut out legitimate voices and dissenters. The list itself would likely be against first amendment rights.

(First, I don't see any really legitimate possibility that Saudi investment funds are going to pony up $40 billion to take Tesla private, that being said...) I don't see any possible reason why CFIUS would reject this deal. CFIUS deals with national security implications, of which Tesla is not relevant to.

A decade ago self driving trucks existed only in thoughtspace; today they're actually being built, driven, and refined. That the old estimates we're wrong doesn't mean the tech will never happen, it's almost available right now. Long haul trips are arguably the easiest to automate, since the routes are stable and easily mapped, even if the last few miles or exceptional conditions will still require human intervention (which could be remotely handled).

Betting on widespread automation of trucking is probably one of the safest AI-related bets you could make right now.

I wish there were a way to dispel the tricks the media and politicians use to divide us such as religion and abortion. There are countless other issues that affect us, but many voters only care about 1 or 2 issues. The "polarizing issues" are then just proxies that won't have a material effect on most people anyway. But people are so susceptible to emotion, and I doubt there's a way around this.

I'm a consultant and have been for a long time, and I know this business. I don't think counting keystrokes and in many cases screenshots make any sense, so I think the implementation of this is totally bogus, but the concept makes complete sense.

"I've never had a client expect to be able to look over my shoulder"

Right well UpWork isn't your client. I don't think your clients should, and to another person's point, yes your clients should trust you.

But this is in the case of when you do the work and the client _doesn't_ pay. This is UpWork covering your ass, when they really have no obligation to. They want a way to prove that you are least did some work, so likely they can go after the client later and recover costs.

This seems absolutely reasonable and honestly a heck of a bargain. Again, I think the implementation of counting keystrokes seems like a stupid way to do it, but coming up with a tracking method to _optionally_ guarantee payment even in the case of client non-payment is the deal of the century in the freelance world. Don't believe me? Try freelancing for a while and see how many clients stiff you after you've completed the job. There are literally advertisements in the NYC subway about it.
