I used 'bodies' specifically, because that is what we, the precariat, are to the systems that govern our lives.

We are warm bodies. Useful for interfacing with other warm bodies. When those bodies cool, they are discarded.

Yes, it really is like this. If you doubt me, by all means, come check it out.
> What else are you going to do in C? But even most real world implementations of C have all sorts of structs and typedefs that you shouldn’t make any assumptions about and you should treat as an opaque type.

> > Who are you to say I won't do math on account ids?

You seem to think that's absurd? Maybe I want to store a set of accountids. So I sort them (bit-extraction or comparison!), take deltas (subtraction!), and encode the deltas sensibly. Maybe I have two lists of accountids and I want to check that none of the things in the first list show up in the second list. Some sort of hashing scheme (bit-fiddling!) is going to be my friend here.

> > What ORM? What database? If I'm using an ORM and a database, high-performance time operations are likely out of the question.

> So you’re going to pass a raw key/value record set around your code and program like it was 2006? So now you’re going back to mapping your sql resultset to an object that makes sense anyway. Going right back to my point that you’re going to have a mapping between your raw results -> domain model -> view model (where the view model is serialized for external use) and back again anyway.

What SQL? What resultset? What object? I have an integer. Why do you assume it doesn't make sense?
You may have meant this, but just to clarify - they're developing methods of lowering the CO2 output (and financial cost) of their concrete weights, not concrete in general; they do this by not having to meet the structural strength requirements of regular concrete.
No one at FB cares about anything. They bet (and have been right) that they can pay off whomever (“lobby”) so they can keep making $. This will result in nothing more than a little monetary fine and removal of one or two specific “features.” It’s just whack-a-mole.

Telemetry is a special case I think. An example of some of the problems is Vivaldi, where information like the "screen resolution" actually can help to improve the user experience and data on the number of users can also be useful but none of that makes it necessarily a good idea: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17564877
Arguably, Twitter doesn't have much "regular users" either.

Most people have never logged in to Twitter, and have no idea how it works. Ask around among the normal people you know if they've ever posted there. A somewhat larger number will say they've used it to read messages from famous people but for most normal people, their Twitter consumption consists of media reports of what someone said on the platform.

As someone who uses Mastodon on a regular basis, I can tell you that it's usable right now, and that I have much better interactions there than anywhere else.

At the moment, Mastodon isn't Paris or London, and thankfully it isn't Las Vegas either. And that might actually be why it's such a nice place.
As someone looking for work, the super enthusiastic recruiter who gets all excited, sometimes I even meet them at their office and......ghosted..... is a super frustrating thing. (I keep wondering if someone committed a terrible crime in my name and nobody is telling me.)

There was some article floating around LinkedIn about how frustrating it is for recruiters when someone ghosts them... that had to be some sort of troll right?
I've definitely considered it. However, interestingly, to attend university in the USA usually carries a pricetag of $20,000 to $30,000 per year minimum after all the smoke and mirrors of "grants and financial aid".

So, you have consumers (students and their parents) paying real money for a real education that they are hoping will result in gainful employment. Either millions of students are overpaying every year, or the system provides some value.

Now, the ones delivering that value (grad students) are receiving maybe $8,000 per semester while teaching 100 students lets say, while the students are paying collectively nearly $1,000,000 for 4 months of tuitoon.

Where does the other $992,000 go, besides administrator salaries and football stadiums?

That always depends on whether whatever is contained within the abstraction is something that might change. Sigh, humor.

Leaving it as a primitive basically says 'you may have to hack the programming language or framework in order to modify code that depends on this piece of the logic'. Global state is something you can manage in terms of modular components. Allows for dynamic orchestration of components.

It's more the long term issue that keeps repeating (more humor) than it is just replacing an integer. Being able to decide 'is this component something that needs to be reasoned about in it's own independent logical layer from the rest of the system or is it not' or 'does this component relate to other components in a well defined way'.

Connect is an action, an observable action has occurred. An abstraction can trigger a behavior to other abstractions through that predefined relation. That's the point.
Nobody is arguing legality. I'm making a moral (not business) argument for allowing discrimination in the general case, on the grounds that disallowing discrimination disadvantages minority entrepreneurs.

That's not my job, and that dismissive, terrible attitude is exactly why open source has such a bad reputation. When the people you're trying to recruit to use your service are saying there's a problem, saying, "Then you go do something about it!" is not going to endear you to users.
I would also look at this as a lesson that anything that might seem weird/odd/strange/abhorrent/unworkable to yourself still has the potential to be a successful money making venture.

One of my biggest problems with starting and growing a business is that I tend to put too much of my own biases and perceptions on things, and tend to dismiss anything outside of that as being outside the norm. This article is a reminder to keep an open mind, always.

I was trading options for a while and a lot of people kept asking me how I did it, just never had the time to describe everything. Finally decided to setup a website, www.marketgodfathers.com and a Discord channel. Automated reading my entries and exists from my brokerage and posting to discord allowing everyone to enter and exit the trades when I do. Now I just wait for people to sign up and I pay someone to chat with the customers/answer their questions on Discord.

Need to work on automatically posting my plans to other locations, or maybe find a service that does it for me, if anyone has recommendations. Looking to private message Discord users, Facebook friends, Facebook groups, Instagram posts, and Reddit subreddits/daily threads.

Facebook can tell that something is problematic / illegal.

So, Facebook should be free to profit from taking and selling, displaying those ads, without restriction? After all, they're not the ones doing anything illegal, right?

80% building. I do specialize in this field of building things quickly and sustainably.

And in a lot of cases, like a "UI upgrade" of a decade old project we had lately, the hardware, the API, and the tech are so different that it's easier to rewrite from scratch.

Some large companies also contract other massive companies to build things for them, where the code belongs to the contractor. Updates can be very expensive, and so people often rebuild.

I don't feel the need to endear myself to users. It's not my job, either, nor is it anyone else's but yours. If you want something, you need to make it happen. What arrogance of yours to think that someone else should volunteer their time to accomodate for your whims!

If Mastodon doesn't suit your needs, then fix it or don't use it. Either way that doesn't make it "embarassing" or otherwise bad. It works great for millions of users.
I agree with you that a black female should not have to pay to send ads to a white male for her hair weave products. FB should allow this level of segmentation and discrimination based on race for both moral and business reasons.

Housing is a regulated industry where discrimination in certain ways is not allowed. The idea is allegedly that a room is a room and a tenant is a tenant, regardless of race or age or etc. The government has decreed that housing is too important of a consumer item to allow landlords to police themselves.

Unfortunately, many landlords find ways to skirt the law.

And in the case of sub-leasing and finding roommates, discrimination is totally legal. I can make a post saying "female only". Additionally, upon an in person meeting, I can even turn away a roommate who is female but isn't Asian for example.
I would say "better adapted to an urban environment than a rural environment".

That distinction may be different from smarter or more intelligent. I think it's complicated.
You might want to look into what the ADA requires about building accommodations for handicapped accessibility. Hint: You aren't compliant just by throwing up your hands and saying "We aren't accessible, don't bother", especially not for commercial real estate. I.e. you can't simply discriminate against handicapped people, which is the problem that necessitated the passing of the law in the first place.

Even residential real estate has to follow a bunch of codes though, like secure railings on all stairways for starters.
Well, man, that's not the debate. As so often in these conversations, you're running away with the goalposts. If I may advise: these are exactly the antics that are costing you credibility with those of us out here in the field actually building cryptographic systems.

A restaurant near me started serving impossible burgers a couple weeks ago. Since I have gout I am always trying beef and pork replacements.

Impossible burger’s patty is on par with a McDonald’s quarter pounder. Which is a reasonable accomplishment. It’s acceptable and enjoyable as a cheap burger. But it is not gonna fool anyone who really enjoys a good burger.

Which would be fine if people would stop overhyping it.

Problem is not that T2 chips are causing kernel panic - that stuff happens. Problem is that nobody wanted the touch bar and thus the T2 chip there in the first place - another chip with its own OS running and handling the touch bar crap nobody cares about and many are annoyed by. Apple has gotten into NIH+Something fancy just to jack up the hype and prices too deep.

I might be mistaken - but tell me if I am - how is my X1 Carbon 6th gen meaningfully less secure/functional than the MBP? IOW, what am I getting in return for missing ESC, added complexity of the touch bar and significantly higher price? AFAICT nothing if I am not bound to the OS.

Respect for recognizing that you started things off on the wrong foot. Not everyone is willing to take ownership like that.

You are totally right, the best response is a clear, calm explanation. Unfortunately, the time, energy, and expertise to do so is not always available. It's in moments like those where I hesitate between ignoring the comment entirely and downvoting.

As for transit spectroscopy, I'm going off memory/rederivation/speculation here (not sure how much of each), but I believe it works by first taking the spectrum of the parent star by itself, then observing the spectrum of the starlight travelling through the transiting planet's atmosphere, and then diffing the two results to isolate the spectrum of the planet's atmosphere.

Actually in this case it's pretty easy. If you're gay and use dating apps, and didn't opt out of application usage history in your settings, the presence of those apps in your history will flag you as having that interest to advertisers. The google analytics get resold/repackaged, either directly or indirectly through data brokers, to Facebook. Facebook suddenly starts displaying ads for expensive mens' underwear.
The laws are on the books because of rampant discrimination against minorities in prior eras. It took the entire civil rights movement to start to make progress on addressing these issues, which included laws making some of the worst practices illegal.

I found the star ratings useful and wish they were on the main browsing page so I do have to click into a movie to see the details.

That said I actually loath Netflix's UI. I'm sure they have some metric which shows it works but I hate hate hate the instant preview/playback. I want to browse quietly reading the descriptions and then possibly checking the internet but the distraction of Netflix starting the auto play makes that impossible for me so I end up just turning it off and googling for things to watch. This usually fails so I watch nothing.

My current pattern is wait for a friend to recommend something and then subscribe and a few days later cancel my subscription. In the month I have the service i rarely turn it on the browse because of the aforementioned issue. When I do convince myself to try to browse the issue comes up again and I just turn it off. I probably pay for 1 to 3 months a year. Kudos to Netflix for not forcing a yearly subscription otherwise I'd just find other sources

Source code/machine code, I am just interchanging but in this analogy they are equivalent. Pre-natal influences change the epigenetics, i.e. "on" the genome. The structure of DNA is almost completely determined by histones, which are proteins that DNA wrap around, so once again, not the DNA. Microbiota affect the environment of the cells, meaning it is an input to the cell, not the source code. Any phages affecting the microbiota will affect the input to the cell. These factors aren't considered source code simply because it only affects the execution of the cell's source code.

Two things have always struck me about Jimmy Carter.

1 - He was willing to nominate Volker to Fed chair even though he knew Volker's plan of raising interest rates massively would cost him (Carter) re-election. I believe he would have survived even the Iran crisis but for that, but it was the right thing to do. Reagan got all the credit for it since it started under Carter's watch and finished under Reagan's.

2 - he has such a reputation for Polite gentility and self sacrifice (see above) yet his maneuvering through the primary season and at the democratic convention was masterful -- he was dispassionate but brutal in putting the (political) knife into rivals, and was happy to do so publicly. That genteel/man of the people schtick extended to his use of the pronunciation "nukular" even though he had worked for Rickover and attended to the navy's nuclear school!

A complex guy whether you like him or not.
It looks like their prototype uses 6 cranes on a single central pillar, probably for this reason. It seems like with some basic algorithms you could get away with as few as 3 and still supply steady power as long as the cranes are tall enough.

> I personally wouldn't be shocked to find out Uber never ends up really working as a business.

My other comment in this thread [0] is about how I think waymo has a good chance of eating all of ubers/lyfts market so I totally agree. However, I still think their current unit economics in established markets are profitable and I can see why investors are interested in the market assuming self driving cars do not work out (which i personally don't).

> By your logic, nobody would have given Theranos $1.4 billion fucking dollars without making sure their shit worked.

I thought up about this a while and I have to agree with you, they could certainly be pulling a theranos or enron especially since they are not public companies which require regular audits (that I know of but I'm not finance guy).

That being said, with more private money being invested in a company, I would assume they would do more personal auditing. Are there any VC guys that can comment?

I'm glad there's a chance the commercial exemption may go away. That never made sense.

The bigger problem is that prop 13 is structured in a way that screws up neighborhoods. On my street in Palo Alto is a widow in her 90s who can still afford to stay in her home, which I think is great. There's also an older couple in a different home who would like to move out of their largish/multistory home but couldn't afford to pay the rent or property taxes on a small one-bedroom. As a result there's only one family with kids on the block.

As for prop 58...well if you are the sort of person who considers inheritance at all legitimate I'm not sure you have grounds to complain.
I remember a mechanical engineer friend of mine who worked in a power plant telling me that large flywheels are still used for energy storage. Funny how basic the energy storage solutions often are.
So a few cranes?

Keep in mind these will be grid-tied too, so you only need the power to be smoothed across the entire grid; it doesn't have to be at a single location. So grid storage batteries elsewhere could play a role too.
My success rate is also quite high. After being at one company way too long, I started aiming for jobs over the past 10 years where I wasn’t completely qualified, focusing on learning over money - even though the salary bumps were nice.

The company is getting a steal and I’m learning. I have one more aggressive jump I can do in the next 3 years before I top out in my market without going into management.
