All I said was that it's possible, I'm not arguing that it happens all the time. I know plenty of people that don't live near their families too.

To say something is possible, all it takes is one result, in which an anecdote is fine. Someone providing an anecdote doesn't guarantee a fallacy in all cases.

It's a choice for people to move away from their safety nets (unless bad things happen to their families, and I certainly know some people who have grown up in broken homes. I dated a few people in that situation). It's not always a good choice, or the best choice, but it's still a choice.

The parent only provided a single anecdote to "show" how things worked in Italy as well. I was just showing how his anecdote wasn't enough evidence to prove his point that things work differently in Italy compared to the US.

What you said doesn't make any sense to me at all. You seem to be drawing conclusions and making assertions by conflating low end casual dining with fast good.

You state that it's difficult for a fast food restaurant to manage a la carte purchases when that's exactly what they are designed to do. Their entire business model is based around an a la carte menu.

You then justify larger portions as a means to mitigate customers ordering additional portions. The reality is that for most casual or low end dining the customer knows what to expect and orders appropriately. At best your assertion about large portions would only work to satisfy first time customers.

> My Prime membership expires in a couple months time, and this time I'm not renewing it, after being a member for several years.

Same here. After almost a decade, I will not renew my Prime membership. It is just scary thinking about it especially losing other benefits like Prime Music and Unlimited Photos backup but Amazon shopping experience keep getting worse.

I am pretty sure I have received a few fake name brand items but pretty hard to tell. In past, if I ever had any complaint, Amazon reps would not only fix the issue but send $10-50 gift cards. Lately, they only fix the issue/replace the item. Maybe, they spoiled me but to me that is sign of declining customer service.

I used to be active Amazon advocate, introduced many of my friends to Amazon. But now I am pretty much on the other side.

In 2018, and that big giant data center in Utah, its likely much greater than 30 days. It truly is wizard magic.

5G New Radio (NR) is the global standard for a unified 5G wireless air interface. It was ratified some time ago. This allows investments to hardware.

The standardization efforts continue and they add functionality and more interfaces for specialized services and applications. For example: Multimedia Priority Service, Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application layer services, 5G satellite access, Local Area Network support in 5G, terminal positioning and location and lots of other service interfaces. 5G will be much more than just 4G LTE with steroids.
Speaking of crap DNS, OVH's webUI does not have DNS CAA support and their support claims they don't support it but their API is able to add the record and it works.

First author of the linked paper here. It's an interesting question.

Actually the voice activation (on/off periods of sending vs silence) was the first thing we looked at in that project. There's definitely some information leakage there, but it was really hard to learn anything meaningful from it. The problem seems to be that long strings of words all get lumped into a single activation. It's really hard to discern anything about what those words are, or even what language they come from.

We got some very weak results on language detection from VAD. You can learn something about the language, but it's not very precise. For example, maybe you could tell that a given conversation is definitely not language A, B, or C, but it might still be language X, Y, or Z.

I've spend _way_ too much money on climbing gear in the past three years, very little of which was on Amazon. I simply can't risk getting counterfeit safety-critical goods.

And while I'm not worried about counterfeit mops, I have noticed that the Amazon first habit is now broken in general.
Those are two separate technology standards. 3GPP2 evolution got merged and we came down to a single "4G" standard with the LTE air interface. It borrowed a lot from WiFi's adoption of OFDMA that allowed a lot of the bandwidth increases. 5G evolution on the air interface though significant, are just an extension of that, using higher frequency bands. But where the meat of 5G lies is in expanding on the legwork done in LTE specs in preparation for IoT. It brings in the ability for multi-bandwidth, multi-reliability and multi-latency applications and SDN paradigms. "Kubernetes for the Network" kind of terms are being thrown about.

Initial deployments though will focus on "FTTH replacement" scenarios.
That's not the right answer at all. It has been tried several times, and it usually (always?) ends in disaster.

The problem is that printing money and handing it to the government causes inflation. This is essentially the same as devaluation, as you said, except for one difference: devaluation is a one-time event, whereas inflation tends to not be. In particular, next year the government is also going to need money to keep Social Security running. But it's going to need more, because of this year's inflation. And there's going to be all the people further in poverty because of this year's inflation, so other government expenses go up. So the Fed has to print more money next year. So next year's inflation is worse than this year's. So the year after that, the Fed has to print even more money...

Note that they didn't test any actual cannabis product, they tested one of those synthetic cannabinoids that sometimes turn up in "Spice" and other "legal highs" that seem to be less safe than cannabis.

Synthetic cannabinoids have so far struck out commercially as prescription drugs (eg. Rimonabant) and they have gotten a very bad reputation among recreational users. (Go to the gas station in a rural area and somebody will tell you how his cousin got something strange from China and stayed up for three days and bit his pitbull)

It would be nice to see this tested with THC, CBD and other compounds that are actually in cannabis. Pot may or may not be good for you but it won't make you have seizures and synthetic cannabinoids will.

For this issue and for JS execution maybe. But there are so many features in modern browsers that the cat-and-mouse game of waiting for vulns to know you've hit all of the places for fingerprinting and other deanon is untenable. Couple that with extensions TBB bundles by default, e.g. https everywhere, and the surface area is even larger.

TBB has value for general browsing, but secure browsing needs to be by document format as much as implementation. Right now, the only reasonable option for onion services is to have their site browsed via the large, feature-rich bundle. Unfortunately, it requires a good bit of funding to build a document browsing platform of any size so I definitely understand the current practical approach.
That started long before the Syrian crisis and it wasn't the wellsystem in general but that it allows for people who come to the EU to get pretty solid benefits without anything in return which helps create ghettos and doesn't incentifies them to integrate with the rest of society.

I'm sure you're experienced enough to know this but a single drag off of a joint can be an excessive amount of THC, especially considering the current strains and potency. Too many people don't realize how little they actually need or how much better the experience could be with what seems like a minuscule amount. Small drags from a vape pen are much less excessive than a joint or bowl.

> Capitalism is more about private ownership of the means of productions

That existed before capitalism - in feudalism, for example. It's true in the context of Marxist analysis of capitalism as that's how Marx decided to frame capitalism, but it isn't capitalism's distinguishing feature.

> Monopolies run against the spirit of capitalism.

Effectively, yes, which is why we should prevent them by either public ownership of natural monopoly resources (public road ownership, for an example to wind up the libertarians) or regulation.

Other way around. The Swedish state owns 60% of the merger whereas the Danish state owns 40%. Also, the Swedish postal service already sucked even before the merger, but the Danish postal service was a really dumb deal and a money hole, so the merger definitely didn't improve things for anyone.
Wasn't at all suggesting we should make higher ed free. I made mention of the tax cuts because the Trump admin likes to talk about helping the economy but yet they've said/done nothing about student loans which are proving to be a massive impediment to economic growth.

I don't like the idea of the gov't choosing which degrees/majors are worth funding. We've derisked student loans to a point where lenders don't care about your income prospects. If we allowed students loans to be discharged through bankruptcy you would start to see a big shift in how loans are made. The reality is the entire structure of higher ed right now is a sham.

It doesn't cost us anything that we're aware of. The money cost is borrowed. The moral cost is ignored. It's a nation of spectators distracted with the entertainment du jour, not citizens. Most Americans demand a right to not be bothered with this citizenry stuff, that in fact we are not accountable to the atrocities of our own leaders if we don't vote. Literally, "I didn't vote for any of this therefore I'm not at all responsible."

If we were to have war taxes, directly paying for active wars, I think it would be quite a different story. But Americans who vote have gotten exactly what they asked for (in the aggregate): wars they do not have to pay for, wars they do not have to volunteer to fight. It's hired out to others, with borrowed money, doesn't affect me.

Understand, this is perhaps a bizarre defense of the stereotypically ignorant average American, that American foreign policy does not directly affect Americans. The U.S. government has a longer reach and effect globally, than domestically. And most Americans don't know what that looks like.

‘Most programmers can’t be trusted with macros’ is a sentiment I read a lot, but at one point in time people might have said the same about functions, and arguably they could say the same about pointers or recursion today.

I think that being able to think symbolically about one’s code is a vital skill for a programmer (and, more generally, that the capability of thinking abstractly is a vital skill for a learnéd human being). Thus, if someone lacks that skill, perhaps he should probably not be a programmer? That may sound revolutionary, or elitist, but I think most of us would agree that someone who can’t effectively reason about a depth-first tree traversal will have trouble as a professional software developer; mayn’t that also be the same of someone who can’t effectively reason about computational structure?

Your comment re. macros & fragmentation makes me wonder if you’ve ever used Lisp’s macros: I think that they actually mitigate against fragmentation, as e.g. CLOS started out as macros atop Lisp and ended up being standardised as part of it. Lisp’s packages help manage namespace collisions, and thus prevent fragmentation by making differences manageable.

And Lisp tooling typically handles macros very well indeed.

Well, we have tools that work. Why would we use tools that don’t work? It just seems weird to me, when a solution to a problem exists, to not use it.
The "brainteaser" question type in the survey is just another type of question. If you've seen/practiced Fermi estimates, it's pretty rote. If you've never seen/practiced Fermi estimates, it will sound like a horrible trick question. I wonder how well it would work to begin with "are you comfortable with Fermi estimates?". If so, go ahead and ask. If not, _teach_, do a couple together, then have the candidate do one on their own. The technique isn't hard, it's just surprising that it can work and work pretty well if you haven't already been exposed.

Changing a macro you own > forking a macro library > forking a transpiler > forking the language.

I admit I never worked with Babel on the plugin-writing side, but that sounds much more complex than writing macros.

With Clojure macros, and Lisp macros in general, one of the important part is that they run within the same system as the rest of your code. That is, macro logic can be split out to regular functions, that will be executed at compile-time. Macros can reuse functions you wrote to be used at runtime. This property makes a language and your codebase much more coherent wrt. macro use.
As someone who works for a lot less money than I could be making and in an industry I am not excited about in the least (insurance...technically business process outsourcing but our clients are all insurance companies), I don't know about the word forced. I have been choosing a suboptimal career so I can be near my support network. It's hard sometimes, really hard, especially knowing I could easily be making $100k+ more than I'm making right now and working on something I care about at least a little bit more, but I am making that choice.

I realize it can be extra difficult in some markets. I'm at least near a metropolitan area, so there's some jobs (hardly any that excite me, but there are some). I've worked plenty of shitty jobs in my life and nowhere near the software dev world in order to stay in my hometown . Unless the job market completely dries up in your town, it's a choice that can be made.

It's similar to all the people who get majors in humanities or psychology or marketing and then end up working as a barista at Starbucks once they graduate. It's far from ideal, but sometimes people really don't want to move across the country for their jobs (or can't).

Again, I'm not saying it's a great choice, or the right choice to stay near your support network necessarily. I haven't lived away from them so I don't have any idea firsthand. But I think it's a bit myopic to think you are forced to always go wherever the maximum amount of jobs or money to be made is, support network be damned.
> You have a very naive view of other people.
You have a very naïve view of government:

I don’t think he does, he’s just not sold on your alternative based on childlike assumptions such as They work together at being thugs (though even that tends to be limited). They don't work together in productive endeavors, which is what I said. You keep alluding to your perfect vision of anarchy, and when people point out how impossible it is in the world we already live in you either pivot to “government is bad,” or “that’s not what I mean by anarchy.”

So maybe it’s time you lay out in detail how you get from Earth 2018 to pdonis’ anarchy at some point in the future. Remember to avoid magic, changing human nature, and all of the criticisms levied so far. You don’t get to handwave away any parts, you don’t get to assume things like worldwide cooperation or “peace already broke out in the Middle East” and you have to account for all of the world’s tech, armaments, etc.

Convince us.
