How does the math work out if the wealthy have much more capital than "the rest of us"? Why have you chosen to keep your capital in assets with below-average return if you know which are the better assets?
I have this little screen in my pocket, it's called "mobile phone". It shows me bus arrival times in NYC pretty accurately. It showed me bus arrival times in Moscow where I recently traveled, right on the maps apps.

If your city still lacks this, maybe you should let your municipal representative, or your bus company, know that you want it.
Obviously not. Many people do even while they bitch about the results. For myself, I clearly want quality up to some level of cost tradeoff. I rarely go for cheapest with respect to travel.
It would flood the network with probes and take quite a while.
While perhaps accurate, dismissing risks as baked into the lifestyle is notorious for being ineffectual in getting people to accept said risks as unavoidable and unmitigatable. Especially since many people have been to other places that have public transit but seem to have less of the issues posited as inevitable.
C does not have `auto`, so you couldn't store closures in local variables.
Sorta, yeah... but you can get better than nothing:

It's only "less" if your wages also inflate. But your food and housing prices increase on the leading edge of inflation, and wages lag. And often they never catch up.
You're not the only one. I'd gladly stand on a short flight, say between LA and SFO or between Philly and Washington, DC. Those flights are faster than some subway rides, and no one complains about being crammed in to subway cars.
History repeats itself. The peasants, sorry workers, are peaceful and complacent right up until they really aren’t.
> basically. It doesn't cause amazon to rise in price.

Yes, it does - you cannot add capital to a market without raising the market cap. It doesn't cause it to raise higher or faster than it's index peers, but it absolutely does cause it to rise.
Functioning markets also do not have the Federal Government backing hundreds of billions in loans every single year either (Fannie and Freddie then, and Ginnie now). It's pretty convenient to blame lenders while the government itself was pumping insane and irresponsible amounts of money directly into this market and telling lenders to find people to allow them to do this with. It's practically inevitable for lenders to get greedy when there's no oversight and trillions of dollars at stake. The truly bad actors in this are not the people doing what we know people end up doing when a system is designed like shit. It's the people who designed the shitty system.
Sure, unless your value objects contain references. Then you’re looking at a deep copy, which can be expensive and/or very application-specific. It’s hard to do copy by value generically.

These are not newer planes but iterations of existing models. Granted that airline industry is slower in churning out newer planes than say automobile for obvious reasons, but you don't say Nissan is launching a newer car called Altima TTZ.

However, for the sake of the argument if any iterations of these existing planes is worth citing as a "newer" plane then IMO it is A350-1000ULR which is going to operate the longest flights ever from Australia to New York/Johannesburg/London/Brazil https://www.ausbt.com.au/airbus-mulls-ultra-long-range-a350-...

(I don't know, so I'm asking. E.g. MTA is known for the opposite.)
Tu Youyou won the nobel prize in medicine for a recipe she found and worked on from nearly 1500 years ago. From Wikipedia:

its preparation was described in a 1,600-year-old text, in a recipe titled, "Emergency Prescriptions Kept Up One's Sleeve". At first, it was ineffective because they extracted it with traditional boiling water. Tu Youyou discovered that a low-temperature extraction process could be used to isolate an effective antimalarial substance from the plant; Tu says she was influenced by a traditional Chinese herbal medicine source, The Handbook of Prescriptions for Emergency Treatments, written in 340 by Ge Hong, which states that this herb should be steeped in cold water. This book contained the direction to immerse a handful of qinghao in the equivalent of two litres of water, wring out the juice and drink it all. After rereading the recipe, Tu realised the hot water had already damaged the active ingredient in the plant; therefore she proposed a method using low-temperature ether to extract the effective compound instead. The animal tests showed it was completely effective in mice and monkeys.
I find it interesting to consider the implications of the quality that comes out of mastering on iOS vs a real studio (where you have a trained engineer and dedicated equipment): the former is of lower quality, but it doesn't really matter because we've become of culture of "good enough" that settles for sub-par achievements. I would say that falling standards have made content creation more prolific, to the disappointment of those who care (and not just perfectionists). A culture raised on overcompressed and pitch fixed productions just won't care about dynamics and good mixing. To quote a friend when discussing food: "If all you've ever had is Velveeta..."
This isn’t a feature to authenticate the account. This is to identify the person using the account. They’re tying the person using the account to a phone number that person apparently controls, and thus a billing contact.

This usually means Google suspects you of doing something that might be abusive.

In this case: re-activating a dormant account that was in a data dump would be a safe bet.
Most wealthy people borrow significantly even if they have high net worth (think mortgage on multi-million dollar home or investment property). Inflation helps them while they put their assets to work elsewhere. And it helps them far more than it helps some poor person with a few thousand in credit card debt.
1) Credit card availability

2) Home equity line

It's not painless. Losing money never is. But you said "wipe out" not "will pay fees and lose 10% of net worth."
This is dead on correct; the precedent has been set and has no significant opposition; almost no one in power today would deviate.

Questions I ponder;

Is the US in the coffin corner where then next recession inevitably induces the next financial crisis or can we still have a conventional recession that doesn't strip a bunch of gears and lead to QE funded deficits and bailouts? Is the traditional recession/recovery cycle politically feasible any longer or will the great and the good open up the QE spigot at the first sign of trouble?

The answers would help to predict a lower bound on the eventual currency collapse.
The very price sensitive customers like you are very numerous, but it’s the frequent price-insensitive business travelers that make up much more of the industry’s profits. So they care much more about the 5 million frequent business travelers, who do care about these things, than they do about the 500 million occasional travelers, half of whom have little to no profitability impact on the airline.
No ticket that I know of. It's mentioned in https://blog.mozilla.org/webrtc/ice-disconnected-not/

> So every 5 seconds Firefox (version >= 49) sends another binding request no matter if the ICE transport is in use or not, and it expects the other side to reply with a binding response. If it hasn’t received a binding response for 6 consecutive binding requests, in other words no reply within the last 30 seconds, it will give up and mark the transport as failed. This results in switching the ICE connection state to ‘failed‘ and stop sending any packets over that transport.
You still ultimately need some channel to set up that initial P2P connection. This allows the peers to share the IP addresses at which they’re accessible, as well as the formats and codecs they each support.

There’s nothing to stop you doing this through broadcast messages on a local network, though I’m not aware of any way that could be done from within a browser. You could extract the SDP and ICE messages from the browser environment and handle that in Node though, if you were using Electron or something.

The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Linear Search
If you have an extreme health care incident, why pay the bill? Sure it would hurt your credit score not to, but if it's between that and tens/hundreds of thousands, I think it is worth it to take the hit for 7 years. I know health care workers who give this 'unofficial' advice to their patients and I've had friends and family members do the same thing - people who had no health insurance but still got health care and paid nothing for it.
@justin, do you feel the automation you're developing now will be applicable to other fields of law and do you anticipate branching out into other fields of law over time? Entertainment Law seems like a natural fit based on where tech is going.
One thing that's always concerned me about Rust is that everyone mononorphizes everything (e.g. closures are always unboxed except in the rare cases where dynamic dispatch is necessary). Hopefully this is a baseless fear, but isn't this a recipe for executable bloat?
I disagree. Net worth is an unstable data point and I always view it as a status symbol more than a realistic means of acquiring cash.

For example in a market where nobody is willing (or able) to buy your home, your net worth can be ... well, worthless. In a financial crisis it's even worse.

Your "on-demand" cash is what's in your checking or savings account. There's no guarantee you'll be able to tap into your home, car, 401K, etc. and even if you could, in the long term it may be more damaging to you. For instance in a city like Seattle if you sell your home, you could be looking at paying double or triple your previous mortgage in rent, so you're ultimately putting yourself in a worse position.
We host our voice server on dedicated hardware, not VPS. Visualization overhead for networking is too high for the cost.

Additionally, you can buy bandwidth for much cheaper from dedicated hosting providers as opposed to cloud providers. For our usecase, AWS would be approximately 15,000x to 30,000x more expensive due to bandwidth pricing.

It doesn't really matter. Someone has to pay, and right now, it's taxpayers at large, as opposed to drivers in particular. [1]

Its inefficiency would actually be a point in favor of shifting costs to direct users of infrastructure - it would incentivise a reduction in use (Of a service provided by an inefficient department.)

[1] Yes, I know, gas taxes are regressive. This issue is a bit more complicated then I let on - but if we were to take a purely market economics approach, I feel that my points stand well.
I've always liked that post, and I think it inspired me to do a similar thing.

That being said, I'm a big fan of decorators, so I expressed the memoization using a decorator, rather than baking it into Ymem.

>Which is a very sane default for most people

I couldn't disagree more. Having an open mic setup for gaming is both insane and completely inconsiderate to everyone else in the channel/group.

It's hard not to personally judge people that join a group, whether that's a friend of a friend, someone looking to try out, public LFG lobbies, etc and you can immediately tell they have an open mic configuration. It's maddening.

Breathing, keyboard smashing, mouse clicking, background noise, eating, or exasperated whining every time you die/lose are all annoyances you push on the rest of the channel/group with an open mic configuration. At best it's an annoyance. At worst it's actively disrupting people's game play and team communication.

For the love of all that is decent with humanity, use push to talk.
I disagree.

Design Patterns are very useful, but they are a tool like anything else.

They're not just a bunch of things with cutesy names, they are the most common and core patterns that we can use in OO.

Yes, they are way overused, particularly in Java, but they are useful.

The book could be summarized however.
The API is flexible enough for a bot like this, I'm contemplating opensourcing mine at some point! :)
You don't think it's possible that 'financial laws' are just a little bit more complicated and complex such that there are more than two possible reasons they are not machine-readable? Lots of laws are up to interpretation which is why we have judges.

I strongly prefer public transport where it's available, and when convenient.

Sometimes I need to go across the usual lines of the subway / bus traffic, and any reasonable route would have 2 transfers and be circuitous. Or maybe I'm carrying a couple of heavy bags from an airport. In cases like these I'd hail a car. Such cases are not frequent, but being able to hail a car at such moments is very convenient.
Absolutely 100% possible to learn company building skills. No one starts off as a natural; like anything there is 10,000 hours of practice involved.

When I started on my journey 14 years ago I was shy, not good at selling, a terrible programmer, had no management experience, had no connections and was not a super strategic thinker. Now I am much better at all those things (except I'm still a fairly mediocre programmer). The last 14 years were mostly about learning how to be better at those skills (not all at once). The important thing about being in a startup was that I was put into positions where I was forced to learn them by doing (which was at times an incredibly painful process -- because most learning involves failure and these failures felt particularly high stakes).

If we could start by strapping a camera to my head and calling it a startup, and then create >1b in value across half a dozen startups in the next decade -- literally anyone who is reading this right now can be successful building a business.
I worked at the Post-PC lab in Colorado for a while. The premise, at least when the term was coined, wasn't ever that Desktops or the new (at that time) "Pen Computing" interfaces would ever go away. Rather it was always that "computerization" would invade all walks of life until suddenly everything would become computer.

Much of the research we did was looking at life would be like when suddenly everything you interact with would have a programmable interface, rather than only being able to program things through your PC.

30 years on much of that has turned out to be more or less true with cars, lightbulbs, door locks, and so on. But of course like all "predictions" of the future it's made using the terminology that was in vogue at the time and sounds funny to us now that it's here and other terms like IoT eclipsed their popularity.

Postmortem: VSTS 4 September 2018
The distance between the average and the median is staggering. This should be why you always should be suspicious when someone uses an average as a good statistic for wealth or income in the US.
From a different article referenced by this article:

Turnbul says:

> "A back door is typically a flaw in a software program that perhaps the -- you know, the developer of the software program is not aware of and that somebody who knows about it can exploit," he said. "And, you know, if there are flaws in software programs, obviously, that's why you get updates on your phone and your computer all the time."

>"So we're not talking about that. We're talking about lawful access."

And again, the warfare is linguistic dictionary wars all over again (like "collection" etc...)

He just redefines "back door" to denote 0-day in order to be able to define "lawful access" as the TrustZone root & automagical updates which is the backdoor they demand access to.

> Oberon etc were not in reach for the average Joe, the tooling was too expensive and the cheap, resource constrained PCs couldn't run it.

I'm sorry, but that's just nonsense. You can argue lack of documentation and user community, but Oberon is about as resource economic as it gets, and was originally designed for mid-80s hardware.

I don't know that the windows add much cost directly - they're just a bonus side-effect from the carbon fiber construction. The innovative materials are for cost savings - carbon fiber instead of metal means less worry about metal fatigue, which means you don't have to take the whole plane apart as frequently to look for cracks. (Lighter too, which reduces fuel consumption.)
Yes, but I think that is in the medium term. In the short term we are laser focused on building things that help fast growth startup companies with corporate transactional work. But I think the general techniques for what we are doing can apply to almost every practice area of law.

if it's only the transition _to_ a supersonic regime that generates a shockwave, then it wouldn't be out of character for carriers to get a variance allowing for "acceleration zones" which could be within 20 minutes flight time of most hub airports.

The FAQ on Boom's web page has some answers on how they think their airplanes will make money: https://boomsupersonic.com/contact#faq-section

It looks like they are hoping to make money by having a more efficient, slightly faster and smaller aircraft than Concorde. It also has more range which they hope will open up transpacific routes which Concorde could not do. Their goal is to make it profitable for airlines to charge about the same as they do for a business class ticket.

They also suggest that their aircraft will make a much smaller sonic boom. Possibly quiet enough to be tolerable over land routes. That would obviously be a huge game changer.

Their still building their technology demonstrator, so I'd take all their claims with a big grain of salt. They want to fly their XB-1 in 2019, so hopefully we'll have a much better idea of how well this work next year.
