There's an overlooked assumption, that art should be a commercial product sold in the marketplace. Maybe some things shouldn't or don't need to be sold in the marketplace. Maybe art should be more like free software (or just be free - let's not parochially limit ourselves to software analogies).

Certainly for 'purposes' or aspects of art - as enlightenment, enrichment, the pinnacle of culture and civilization - free distribution would be better, spreading its benefits more widely. Also, like free-as-in-speech software (sorry), each work of art is part of the creative process for the next one; it can be reused, modified, extracted, etc, so free art would be much better in that respect too.

I understand that artists want to eat and have roofs over their heads. I want a pony. Seriously, perhaps there are other ways to accomplish that. UBI?
Misleading title. While something to that effect appears on the page, the actual title is "RCKT: A beautiful user interface for MySQL"
Could feasibly get the shopping trips down to 1-2 by freezing meat, eating vego later in the week after you've used the meat, etc. If you use milk, time buying that with a petrol/gas stop if you run short. Daily grocery runs strike me as pretty wasteful unless it's en route or part of your walking/exercise routine.

Great suggestions otherwise though.
Although this is possible, most linters don’t allow it (with default settings on)
Again, because that information isn't useful. It is useful if you care about the result...but if you are bookie, you don't. You look at the line on the Asian books or Pinnacle, that is the correct price (and is unbeatable for 99.9% of people). You make money on marking up that line to punters. PP's edge is marketing. They don't care about creating an edge because they know they don't have any, they are the most unsophisticated actors in the market (apart from punters). Their only concern is an unbalanced book (which occurs frequently in the UK due to the popularity of 1x2).

You also misunderstand what "successful punter" means. I have been banned from almost every major online book in the UK, they have no problem with people winning. If you are winning on their lines in a big liquid market, they really couldn't care less. They markup 5-10%, most syndicates can't beat that line so it is very unlikely that a random punter can. The problem is arbitrage (it is even worse in store). If you picked every winner this weekend in the EPL and won £100k, you wouldn't get limited...they would welcome you with open arms. If you put £1 on a price that is soft against Asian book, you will get banned instantly and your bets voided.

If you are sharp (much less than ~1% of the gambling population are), you will get limited but this is because most bookies can't provide the liquidity that sharps need. Again, their edge is marketing. They make money on the EPL or NFL. If you come along wanting £10k on Colo-Colo in the Chilean Primeria, they know they aren't going to make money on that. Asian bookies do respond to liquidity and will move their lines when the smart money comes in (that is how they make money). UK bookies don't (that can't make money doing that).

On a $50 ticket there is usually $20 in added “Ticketmaster” fees that go to the promoter and artist. That 40% increase is what Ticketmaster protects - the scalping sites mostly make money for scalpers, and also to unscrupulous venues who hoard tickets.
You can rephrase this sentence:

> it really doesn't necessarily lead to any kind of true decentralized <data storage> unless someone else has decided to <store your data>

You might have an overly romantic idea of decentralization that doesn't necessarily align with the actual definition of decentralization. I would even argue that there is no solution for the idea you're suggesting. You can't have data that isn't stored anywhere.

The permanent bit in ipfs is actually referring to something else: The data isn't guaranteed to be available at all times, but the link is guaranteed to point to the correct data. Slightly anecdotal, but a while ago there was a discussion about a pdf in #cjdns. Somebody had an ipfs link, but nobody was seeding it anymore. A few hours later somebody digged out a pdf from an old archive but wasn't sure if it's the correct one, so we ran `ipfs add file.pdf` and the ipfs link started working again.
Qme48wyZ7LaF9gC5693DZyJBtehgaFhaKycESroemD5fNX is a catchy thing to put in an URL.
Yeah, I don't think anyone believes that IPNS is good enough as a naming solution. Regarding the blockchain-like thing, I remember seeing something called NameCoin that sounded pretty similar to what you're talking about, and offered the ability to securely assign a human-readable namespace to stuff like Tor hidden services or IPFS hashes.
I don’t get it. Can’t you tweak the settings on these alerts until they’re effective never sent during normal operations?

"As you're Ubering down the road of life, if you're ahead of schedule and there are no other productive activities you can fit in before your next appointment, don't forget to stop and smell the roses."

There are a lot of very sad comments in this thread about optimising life and being productive and efficient. Don't have kids. Don't cook. Don't watch television or play video games, or at least save them until everything else is done. Buy other people's labour to free up more time for working to pay them.

This is an unapologetic value judgement: living your life that way is a waste of time.

There's not enough time, and that's okay. Let a few things go. You don't need to be optimally productive.
I mean couldn't you just solve all this by tying a ticket purchase to a name, and make them non-transferable? Can't sell a ticket if the buyer will have to provide your ID.
There's no such thing as free time. You need to take it or pay for that time if you want to spend it on something you want.
It's soaring, just in a ballistic arc.
As others have mentioned, Nuxt.js is what you’re looking for. And, it’s pretty great to work with. Prior to using it, I just got “done” building out my significant project with vue, just plain vue. When I started this next one, I decided to give Nuxt a shot, and it has been like the missing piece I was looking for in the previous app.

It provides structure to you app, gives you everything you need to build out a front end out of the box (router, vuex, build system, etc). And deploying it is a breeze, giving you the option for static html builds, or a SPA, or you can go full blown SSR, with the best part being you can switch between them whenever seamlessly if your needs change. It provides enough opinion that your project has a consistent structure, but doesn’t get in the way if you need to so,etching outside of norm, extending and configuring it is a breeze. And to top it off, the docs are great.

Definitely would recommend it to anyone looking to build any sort of non trivial front end with Vue. I know my next few projects will certainly be using it.
The approach you are describing seems to extend the same access protection and audit requirements to the audit logs themselves. Otherwise, you have created a covert channel to access the private content by examining these logs rather than the original database.

The other approach, of being able to replay a historical query described in a log while disallowing the private content in the logs allows the audit logs to be stored in a way that can be biased for better storage durability, without quite the same recursive audit nightmare. The logs are much smaller and can be easily replicated and archived, without quite the same level of risk from exposure of log content. Not to say those other logs are not also worth protecting, but there are different ways to balance the risks and costs...

Ah that’s interesting, certainly assuages some of my concerns with this approach, and would obviously allow almost all Bay Area employees to claim the SF salary range.

Arguably the calculator should be configured to just select the maximum permissible salary range inside the permitted radius based on a home zip code, given that presumably everyone who accepts a job offer at gitlab will do this manually anyway. You’d be foolish not to.

It’s still troubling how ‘wrong’ the numbers look for various regions I’m familiar with though.

Somewhat unrelated to the post, but I recently saw a news article about how the USA women's soccer players make less than the men's USA soccer players. The author was trying to insinuate it's inherently sexist an example of the gender biased wage gap.

Seems obvious to me why men's soccer players make more. They generate more revenue. It's basic economics and business. Unless it can be proven that the USA women's soccer and men's team bring in the same revenues for matches, advertising, etc it's an absurd thesis that it is sexist and gender wage bias. Furthermore it promotes the rampant alienation and villainization of men as a whole without being factually accurate and following the basic rules of economics and successful business.
I don't know what your personal circumstances are, but your tone here sounds like you need to take some time away from the internet, for your own mental health.

It's a huge oversimplification to describe people in just those terms. People are complicated and so are their motivations, and it's hard to tell in advance which new things will be successful or not.

For example, I once worked for a guy who hadn't heard of open source and, when I described the concept to him, couldn't wrap his brain around why so many people would take the time to write and maintain a bunch of software and then just give it away. This is not the work product of "evil and/or lazy" people.
Some insight: if you don't engauge in common activities, your borometer of what is interesting or useful to the average person drifts, and fast. That is just something I learned from being somewhat similar in my persuits.

Your income based assumptions also, are very different from my experince. The middle class has a grind, that the lower and upper classes are less bound to. I find upper-middle class friends to have the least free time, and the most harried lifestyle. I find a good gauge of having free time to research or recreate is reading frequency. Ymmv.
Non automatable hoops to jump through can definitely be a good way to determine who “deserves” the tickets. There’s technological ways to do that, but it’s a magic sauce that would make a company a lot of money.
"five and a half hours of precious free time" - as a parent of two young children I read this and started keeling over with laughter.
I found this approach was leading to depression. My attempt to have "extremely productive hobbies" just made me feel bad about them when they were neglected. It also led me to taking on too many things that interested me (garden, car, reading, tech, and so on). I found that when I quit prioritizing and just did stuff I enjoyed doing without worrying what the long term outcome would be, I was happier. If you've ever read Shop Class as Soulcraft [1] or Mastery (by George Leonard, not the Robert Greene book) [2] you will have some idea of what I mean. I began to pursue things for the sake of pursuing them, not because there was an end goal in site.

I realize that this is a purely personal anecdote and I realize this is not how people get rich, run a triathlon or change the world, but maybe I just can't do those things.

I specifically commented on someone saying “our ancestors would just die of starvation”. So, if you want to talk about short term fasting then that’s cool but really not related to this thread of conversation.

Anyway, I agree under 2 weeks of fasting is not starvation. The body does not go into starvation mode over a few days becase it’s extremely expensive to cycle building up and removing skeletal muscle.

PS: It generally takes 24 to 72 hours for food to move through your digestive tract. In the very short term fasting you get excess energy because digestion takes energy. But extend that for 3+ weeks and very different things start happening.
To be clear: I was referring to an overly romantic idea of IPFS I had actually had at one point, and which I acquired because lots of other people were talking about IPFS that way.

I am aware that IPFS does not actually do this, but a lot of people talk about it like it does, like IPFS means you can have websites without really needing to have/pay for any server yourself at all. (Which is, yes, technically sort of true, but only if visitors to your site reliably pin its content.)
Sort of a strange issue with the premise, right? On one hand, "I won't debate you because it only brings legitimacy to your hateful cause" is debatably valid (I disagree somewhat, but don't think the choice is wrong by any means) - but the post itself mentions the person she refused to debate six times. I'm not sure refusing to debate the person and then blogging about them is consistent with the point of not giving them the spotlight.

Also...
"Sunlight is neither literally nor figuratively the best disinfectant. Modern white supremacy does not grow like bacteria — it grows like a weed, aggressively, crowding out everything else that stretches towards the light"

That's not how ideas work. Ideas spread from human being to human being - they aren't infectious like bacteria, nor do they have their own life like weeds. This is -almost- McCarthy-esque - who would often suggest communism was like a "fever" or plague.
Alternative strategy, get really fucking good at doing those things. Then you can get them done in a quarter of the time (compared to someone like the author), and you'll have a decent box of time to fill with doing things you love.
Thanks for the feedback. I'm a Solutions Architect at GitLab.
You can certainly maintain a flat line of repos in GL just like GH. But as you scale and need to group projects by context (customer facing, webapps, bizapps, security, etc), hierarchies (ie. GL groups) provide some added benefits esp around access rights and inheritance of settings -- and the 1st class citizen child projects get things implicitly! Curious how you are using hierarchies in a way that doesn't feel right. Happy to help!
The next time I move jobs this is going to be a fairly high priority for me while negotiating. Either 7 h/day work or 4 days/week. I love doing things on my free time like programming, robots, and learning Japanese and cooking, but I don't have free time anymore.
I think there have been enough HN articles for us to know it doesn’t work like that. Wake up at 6am and he’s not going to bed at 1am anymore.

I enthusiastically pay money to Pinboard every year to maintain a snapshot of every page I've bookmarked (6,280 to date). I don't like trying to reference or look up something that's a few months or years old and not being able to find a current copy of it anywhere. The Internet Archive sometimes helps here, sometimes doesn't, depending on the individual site.

Pinning other people's pages that I've read seems like a reasonable way to scratch the same itch.
That was my impression when I first heard about it too (through a Planey Money podcast episode, which has actually covered the industry mostly fairly a couple times).

Garth Brooks is also known for playing enough at a location to usually meet demand, including adding dates. He'll start out with a single date (maybe two) where he plays two times in a day (who else does that?!), and add dates two times a day as demand indicates. In 2017 seemed to average 3 days (but 6 events) per location. That's dedication.
Probably worthwhile raising people's awareness of toxidromes, and how physicians try to recognize and think through these syndromes. There is a fantastic review article out this past year that helps to concisely put things together to improve your ability to distinguish nerve agents, mustard agents, etc. Quick recognition of the likely class of agent based on symptoms is important, because the treatments (and the risks to responders) differ.

I read it much the same way, as a rather insulting thing to say, especially since you didn't go into what was said afterwards and you didn't preface the kind of relationship you had. It's not on the reader to understand what you meant, it's on the writer to write what they mean in a way that the reader understands the intent.
At this point, are we really surprised at the way some people who perceive themselves as above the law (apply this to any political or commercial leaders you see fit) will behave?

We have passed a turning point at which previously reprehensible behaviors have become tolerated. And as an English speaker living in the Netherlands has come to learn, some of us have an ingrained inclination to avoid directly calling out what to most people would be an obvious problem (to avoid potentially offending).

Putin's Russia kills people. It imprisons people. It poisons people. It cheats, it steals (from masses of poor people). It lies in the face of the world (bare chested). For some reason we now tolerate this without calling it for what it is.

And now we have an American government that has for so long not only avoided calling it out but instead has celebrated non-virtues while avoiding contagious fatal flaws that we forget how wrong for civilization the behavior is. Not only that, but we've begun to celebrate the virtues of dictators - not benevolent ones (if they exist), but previously-OBVIOUS horrible self-serving ones.

So, trying to shut the rant down, it's all quite f-d up. We should not only not be surprised, we should be up in arms. Ironically, the people who should be up in arms are the ones who wisely have realized that arming the civilians is a net-negative. But at least in the US, the right to bear arms is exactly to undo situations like the one we are clearly headed toward.
There's plenty of media/webpages I'd love to "save offline" on WiFi so I could then later access them without having to pay for mobile data (or access them at all on flights/road trips through areas with no phone service)
Under 10 sounds just as insane as a century.

There are countless artists and authors who go undiscovered for years before having a breakthrough and becoming popular. There's a lot of non-fiction books that are slow but steady sellers for years. Some of that non-fiction needed years of research.

Drop copyright to say 5 years and you hurt all of those creators, potentially quite badly. The Disney's, George Martin's and JK Rowling's of the world would be hurt vastly less as so many of their sales are right around release.

If I had to throw a number out I'd go with something like 20 years, and upto 5 or 10 years beyond death - to cover those writing an autobiography or creating something in their final years.
That's actually better than the situation in C.

In C, debug `malloc` may very well behave the same run after run.

Then you move into production, and release `malloc` behaves differently to debug `malloc`.

Suddenly a latent bug that was there all along shows itself in release, but fails to reproduce in debug.

With the randomized behavior you describe in golang, the bug probably will show in debug and be caught.

A friend of mine recently had a dog in the back seat while driving and the dog started to want to get attention from her. My friend turned to look at the dog which ended in rear-ending a car in front of her. Now she needs to spend more than 2k in insurance deductible as well as having to use Uber to commute. Nonetheless, she feels it is 100% her own fault and she's really happy that the dog wasn't injured.
I disagree, it's wrong way dog. Classic round writer's stories dog happen to havers. Well-behaved round stories hog dogger doctors, have behaved dogger rounders.
>Scalpers are the ones choking off supply by monopolizing huge numbers of tickets

The only way this would actually have any effect on "supply" is if scalpers were just eating tickets and leaving empty seats in the venue. The number of seats at the venue is more the "supply" than the number of tickets outstanding on the sales markets.

If a scalper was able to buy 100% of the tickets for an event, and then sell all of them at 3x "face value", then that means that the market was able to bear a price of 3x. The scalper did not change "supply" here...
As I say in my general post on the topic, IPNS is not meant for human use - DNS can be adapted to point to IPNS names just as easily as to point to IP addresses.
"Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know its normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You’ve just gotta fight your way through."

I think some of the frustration comes from not sticking with any one thing long enough to get meaningfully better at it.

Thanks for sharing your experiences, could you recommend any resources for plugging data into Nuxt? This is what I've always been curious about coming from Meteor
I've worked on both election integrity and electronic medical record exchanges. I care very much about privacy.

Your conclusion is correct.

Medical records cannot be encrypted so long as demographic data must be stored in plaintext. Otherwise how would we do record matching (linking) across heterogenous systems?

The fix is to use universal identifiers. Once you moot the record matching problem, you can use translucent database techniques to anonymize patient data.

I don't expect the USA to adopt an official centralized universal identifier for people any time soon. And none of the 3rd party solutions (NSA, LexisNexus, ChoicePoint, Facebook, etc) are acceptable, for various reasons.
