There's now a bunch of new building to put schools and restaurants in.

Much of SF is 1 story buildings. You can absolutely convert those to 3-4 story buildings and get 100% more people in SF. The first floor can be restaurants, schools and grocery stores. In this new SF, like in Tokyo, you can get a flat for $600/month.

Think of the Mission, North Beach, Noe Valley, but building that in the Richmond and Sunset. Everyone wants to live there (see the current prices), why not build more if it? Why not build a bunch in Oakland?

People can just switch to scooters and bikes and there is tons of room on the streets. I remember a NY transit authority guy at a conference, he was just amazed at how much wider our streets are. There is tons of room.

Tokyo exists, it is a real big city with low rents and a great quality of life.
Equality really wasn’t what the german publishers had in mind. They wanted Google to pay for being able to show a snippet of their content in News. A ridiculous idea, that was countered by the only sensible answer: Google asked publishers if they wanted to continue to have their content listed in Google News for free or if their content should be removed. Needless to say that almost all of the proponents, including the most vocal publishers, agreed to keep their content indexed, thereby rendering the law useless.

That’s how it worked in practice.

> For a lot of people it doesn't mean a single goddamn thing how hard you work or how hard you try.

From my viewpoint, breaking out of poverty comes down to these factors, in order of greatest to least importance:

1. Starting off on the right foot at an early age with regards to academic performance. Circumstances can make this tough. Lack of access to good schools, parents too tired to engage their children (e.g. reading to them and instilling academic curiosity) due to working long shifts at strenuous jobs, lack of attention span on the part of the kids, etc. But coming out of school with good academic performance opens so many more doors than not.

2. Choosing a career path that has good job availability and pay (software development, healthcare industry, etc.). You can be a master of your field or trade, but if there aren't enough positions to fill, or if competition is fierce, or if the industry pays poorly, then what's the point unless you have a deep love of it?

3. Luck. Being in the right place at the right time. Not having a major medical issue. I'd almost consider placing this first.

4. Working hard.

Working hard has its place, but it's last on my list. I've known many people who did the first three and don't work hard, and still remain employed since the job market is so good for what they do. We had a developer who was absolutely terrible, but he'd regularly job hop every 1 to 2 years and get more money in the process. To be fair, the software development industry has some serious flaws in its screening processes, but nevertheless, it seems you can't ever hire enough developers. I'm not condoning being a poor worker, but the reality is that, though hard work has its place, there are more important criteria in raising oneself out of poverty.
No one owns ideas, you might have signed a non-compete... but those aren't usually enforcable depending on what your position is.

If you take the code, that's unethical. They paid you to write the code, so they own that. But you're free to do whatever you want.
The actual problem is thinking you can communicate to the British masses via a Twitter thread. completely detached.
You can't just cherry pick a single factor: Tokyo sprawls, but it's not especially dense. It has smaller buildings, much smaller apartments, and higher costs per square foot. Japan has better transit than the west, which makes long-distance commutes feasible. Moreover, there's a culture (and a tax system) that treats housing as a depreciating asset. On top of all of that, the Japanese tend to live together in communal units, with children living with parents long past the point where it would be considered okay in the west. And housing is still expensive relative to the local economy (which has been depressed for 30 years, by the way).

All of these factors (and more) result in the housing economy you see in Japan. HN people love to fixate on zoning, but it's not even close to the whole story. If we suddenly asked westerners to live the way Japanese people do, there would be open revolt and riots in the streets.
"Deliberate" is a matter of definition. But they mention gratings that would be used in production, although I don't see it in the pictures.
>This implies that you are going to have to go to court

No it doesn't, it means that if you get dragged to court because you got the email at 1AM and you were asleep, then you're not guilty of anything.

No judge will put up a fine for that.
I see Ars changed their "The Russians are really pushing..." headline. It was a bit alarmist considering this story from physorg/AFP earlier today:
https://phys.org/news/2018-09-russia-denies-astronauts-drill...

'Deputy prime minister Yury Borisov rejected Kommersant's report, saying that "it is absolutely unacceptable to cast a shadow either on our cosmonauts or on American astronauts," RIA Novosti state news agency reported.'

Seems like it's largely Kommersant who are pushing this narrative whilst Rogozin is backpedalling.
The key is balanced (non-crappy) diet and a certain level of activity whatever that activity. Look at people in NYC vs. people in Scranton. NYC folks have more muscles because they have to walk to get to the subway, stand in a subway, walk up the stairs and down the stairs to get to the platform, walk from one place to the other, cross a dozen of blocks, etc. Folks in Scranton walk from their couch to their car, ride to their work in that car, barely move at their work, walk 100ft back to their car and get themselves back to their couch.
How many ads would a netlfix add if a netflix could add ads?
Ya, but my point though is that if you were willing to, you absolutely could have worked hard and achieved all that you have. Yes, the chunk of money you received helped - but it didn't enable. You did what you did on your own, and you would have and probably would have done it with or without that money.
The Social Network of Stuff: On media, logistics and supply chains
warren correctly identifies a current problem with our collective understanding of corporate governance, but i’m not sure adding a federal oversight organization is the right solution.

states are the canonical governmental unit in the US, so it makes sense that they manage corporate charters. the federal government should be primarily concerned with interstate and international affairs.

one could argue that corps are interstate and international organizations, but that’s only because we’ve allowed them to be. there are benefits to megacorps, like cheaper products, but there are also costs, like wage depression.

but i still think the primary problem is size, not corporate charters. solve the size problem and all the ills that warren addresses would go away along with it.

so, (1) get rid of corporate welfare (like debt tax shields), (2) cancel corporate personhood (remove corporate money from politics), and (3) instill a more progressive tax system (with more effort to account for externalities).

For those of you confused, the parties being described here are ones that you "walk into one but don’t know a single person there...or perhaps you’re only vaguely connected to the host". Though some of the advice given would be helpful even in a BBQ with a large group of your friends.
People have been awkward at parties since there were three or more people gathering in a social setting.

Many of these "problems" really aren't. For example:

>The unelected House of Lords outnumbers the Commons for the first time in 550 years.

So what? It's not like MPs and Lords take part in the same votes, and that therefore the Lords has some numerical advantage. Comparing the number of Lords to the number of MPs is meaningless.

>Worldwide, only Britain and Iran automatically grant religious leaders a place in parliament.

Yes, it's a bit of an anachronism, but in reality it has very little impact.

I simply ask people what led them to the party in the first place.

This normally leads to converstaions about their friends, then hobbies and lastly jobs.

Either I have (had) some similar interests/frieds/job or I just show general interest for parts of their lifes.

The main point that helped me in such coversations simply was: Not having a goal.

I don't care if I just have one conversation, find new friends, a hookup, business contacts or whatnot. I simply try to learn about peoples lifes and appreciate the conversation.

Somehow this elevates one already above 90% of dudes who talk to someone at parties...
Yep, that's true. Unfettered capitalism is not without its flaws. But it's still the only thing that has ever lifted large numbers of people from poverty in the entirety of human history.

So much nostalgia... Was just thinking it would be neat to try to make a "Web Classic" version of the web without javascript and which only supports HTML 2.0 or 3.0. Maybe even bring back the 'blink' and 'marquee' tags :) . Kind of goes completely against the "one web" principle though, so definitely not practical. Fun to imagine having that kind of blank slate though.

Europeans have cheap healthcare because most of the R&D is subsidized by the US paying list prices.

Europeans can spend such a huge amount (16% of govt budget vs 10% in the US) partially because the US is subsidizing their defense.

The US will eventually go to socialized medicine and then you will see the pace of medical advancement slow. Unfortunately it will be impossible to see because it is unknowable what would have been invented with a capitalist system.
How We Mapped 1.3M Data Points Using Mapbox
I like Weather Underground for most things. The 10-day graph presents information in a way I find useful and easy to understand. However, for the weather right now I like AccuWeather's MinuteCast. It's eerily accurate. I use them to plan my runs on variable days, and I almost never get caught in the rain if they say it's supposed to be clear. On the other hand, if it says it's going to rain in 23 minutes and I decide to wait for a bit, it practically always does rain in exactly 23 minutes. Ditto for snow in the winter. The exact amounts might be off, but the timing is usually spot on.

Controlling for weight isn't meaningful if you're not also controlling for body composition.
Lifting to optimize hypertrophy usually involves medium-heavy weights at significantly higher volumes. More along the lines of 5x12s instead of 5x5s.

Can You Make Swiss Trains Even More Punctual? (Data Science Competition)
I wonder what success looks like?

Here's another use case to add to "squishification". Some weeks back, I was exploring how temperature is taught, preK-12. I noticed that mention of 'Sun heats Earth' was wide-spread, but that 'Earth is cooled by the deep-space sky' was almost never mentioned. Half of the energy balance was ignored. So explanatory leverage is left on the table - "Why are nights cold? Especially with clear sky? Especially in the desert? Why are mountains snow-capped? Why is winter colder?" etc. It doesn't seem inaccessible - "Between bright hot Sun, too hot, and dark cold deep-space sky, too cold, Earth spins, mixing too hot, and too cold, into not too bad." Like a person huddled next to a campfire or heater, turning around to warm their back. Spacecraft "barbeque roll" thermal management. Earth's surface as thermal mass for peak smoothing.

Maturing the idea to that point, and then finding and fleshing out opportunities for leverage, benefits from a diversity of expertise. Physics, teaching (various ages), engineering, planetary geology, etc.

So I wonder if it would be useful to think in terms of not just discussion, but also of leveraging existing communities? Orchestration, federation, cross pollination. So bits about radiative cooling rates could go to PhysicsForums.com; about 'why the sky is cold' to /r/AskScienceDiscussion; about 'nice videos of spacecraft doing bbq rolls' to /r/spacex; about teaching aspects to... sigh, it's a mess of mailing lists and blogs and... well, maybe prototypes to teacherspayteachers?; and so on. All pointing back to someplace able to coordinate the input.

Thoughts?
Wow, good acronym. Now if only I had a good way to remember names, it's something I'm really bad at. Somehow when somebody tells me their name my brain goes on holiday, even after I purposefully repeat it, like 'Hi Luke, nice to meet you..'. Five minutes later I'll be struggling to remember it.

That's even worse at a party full of people I've never met before.

Saying Goodbye to BotBot.me
I started working out at 52, mostly weight training, and made tremendous progress. But I have a hard time defending the habit from incursion by the rest of my life. I've been out for the past couple of weeks because my spouse just had knee surgery and has needed a lot of care. I got quite cranky when she and her mother "helping" meant I did not make a planned trip to the gym on sunday.

But part of the problem there is that I have built my exercise around a "go to the gym" habit. I need to do things that don't involve going to the gym, a habit I can work on at home. Habits are the hard part!
It's not about having a party-rating, it's about having a better time at social events. If you don't like social events then that is an even better reason to want to be "better" at them.
Chicken-fowl, I see what you did there :). But no, chickening out will never fall under any definition of fowl play. This involves cheating, malice, breaking the rules, all premeditated perhaps. Playing it safe with your money? Definitely not.

One of the benefits of using dynamic secrets is that access to say databases carry a short TTL. Vault manages the lifecycle of these credentials and will automatically revoke them once the defined lifecycle has expired. To gain access to credentials a user would authenticate to Vault with say LDAP, this access can be controlled centrally with a policy defining access to secrets assigned on an individual user or group level.

Should an individual leave an organisation then the credentials they have obtained from Vault to access a datastore would expire automatically, normal process would apply to remove them from LDAP and disable the ability to require further credentials.

There is always a process problem with managing secrets but dynamic secrets in Vault stops long-lived secrets and reduces unofficial password sharing.

Why can't we build taller schools, restaurants, and stores at the same time? Or better yet a tower that is a store on the bottom floor, then offices for a couple floors, then apartments? (or any other arrangement of the above that makes sense for the local situation)?

The reason you think more transit will be needed is because you are assuming that separate business and residential districts are required. However there is no particular reason it must be that way. If you can get people within walking distance of work and a few stores they won't needs as much transit. Transit becomes what you need for rare trips.

I don’t see any attempt to shame here. Having a kid is just a really bad financial decision. I should know, I have one!
