Adding to the many anecdotes here.. I had an orange tabby growing up in a quiet suburban neighborhood. Our property abutted a golf course. The cat was mostly an outdoor cat, coming and going as weather and food swayed it. Quite the hunter of snakes/squirrel/rabbit and birds, she was regularly dive bombed by blue jays when crossing the golf course.

We were also a dog family and the cat followed on our walks, golf course during the day and around the block at night. Quite a few times she 'protected' the dog from other cats on the nightly walk. I always found it a bit strange that she did this but I guess it is not all that uncommon to follow the family.
> anecdotally, it’s quite obvious that those who still maintain some work after “retirement” live a longer and healthier life.

That's not at all obvious to me. Even if we put aside the problem with anecdotal evidence in general, your examples still don't imply that people remain healthier by working longer. They imply that health is positively correlated with working longer, which may also indicate that people who healthier are able to work longer.

I’ve often thought that this is like someone living at the fall of the Roman Empire deciding not to have kids because the world was falling apart.

It wasn’t pleasant by any means for a lot of people and the population in Rome declined drastically, but if everyone decided to pack it in when the world felt like it was falling apart, Europe would never have become what it is (which I like to think would be a great loss).
The developed world is fine and has reached equilibrium

On the other hand Africa's population will be larger than the rest of the world combined within the century

Huh that explains things then. I was wondering why more refining wasn't done locally to reduce shipping costs given that it is preferable to ship lumber instead of timber and ingots instead of ore. I guess tanks would have lower expenses with loading and unloading since it is just a matter of hooking it up and pumping.
I'm not a doctor, I just study their data. But I think from what I'm hearing, they've made what they think is the most moral choice. Vaccines have very specific age ranges, and if they continue to see a patient without giving them the vaccine, I think they've decided that that interferes with their do no harm.
This is kind of tangential but, I don't really understand the "death of the middle class" meme/claim. In what sense is the middle class not growing, decade over decade?

I’m not talking about the matter within the black hole, but the spacetime itself that is constantly “flowing” into the hole and getting stretched infinitely towards the singularity.

What if, before reaching the singularity, which is perhaps not possible, the spacetime is “shredded” into Planck-scale entities, which populate an invisible “backplane” that coexists with the visible universe (outside of black holes). the energy of this backplane somehow “pushes” dark energy to expand space everywhere in the universe.
On point #3, there was lots of previous work that goes back to Catacomb 3-D [0] which used the prototype engine which eventually ran Wolfenstein 3D. Before that, you had a couple "first-person" titles which offered quantized movement with pre-rendered backgrounds.

First of all, I said we need to reorganize our society, so the existence of one or two hypocrites is totally irrelevant. Reorganizing society means changing how cities are planned, how, when, and where roads are built, and changes in the regulations of whole industries. One person's behavior is not really the issue here. The issue is how hundreds of millions of people go about their daily lives.

That aside, I already live in a place where the majority of people do not own a car (and I did not even get a driver's license until I was 25 years old), and of those that do the majority do not use their car in their daily commute. As a first step we should reorganize other cities and their suburbs to be less automobile-centric and to be more walkable and to have more effective public transit. There are local efforts underway even in very conservative areas of the United States (Salt Lake City comes to mind), but we need a larger effort that is part of a national strategy. The only thing holding us back is fear of change and an attitude of laziness (which is what the "it's too expensive and hard to do" argument represents -- especially given the fact that we already did something at that scale in the 20th century when we reorganized our society to support a car-based commute), and both of those are problems that require competent leadership more than anything else.
Offshoring with free trade means the whole global population is effectively in competition for jobs. Pay and benefits is reduced to the country willing to provide the cheapest labor with least protections and benefits.
Fascinating. Everyone interested in economics should watch this. Thanks for posting!
VALDOCS. I had an Epson QX-10 with a Z-80 processor, 256K, and green monochrome screen when 486's were out and the 1st gen Pentium was coming out, but with VALDOCS I was able to do all of my homework the same as anyone using the Microsoft Office Suite. (VALDOCS could do word processing, spreadsheets, and charts and graphs.) It was more responsive on an 8-bit computer than modern bloated Office software, and so much easier to use.

We also used WordPerfect for DOS at my high school. In my opinion, VALDOCS > WordPerfect > Microsoft Word, but guess which one won out in the market - I've despised having to use Office software for that reason ever since.

Looking this up again caused me to find this very nice article about the people who made VALDOCS: https://www.electronicdesign.com/blog/rising-star
I couldn't agree more. On this subject, I'm still seeding the leaked Opera 12 source w/presto. http://superkuh.com/opera12v15presto-source.torrent (full torrent dl'd is 222.6 MB)

But... browser engines are no longer browsers like they were in Opera's prime. They are operating systems with all the complexity that brings. I don't think presto could fill that role. That said, it'd make a great actual browser.
I have to agree it's been a great springboard and we should be doing more. I think the reality on the ground is that solar has only achieved attractive efficiency levels in most recent years. Similarly electric vehicle range and cost has only started to become achievable in recent years. Right or wrong nuclear has always had a perception of danger to it that the most people would say NIMBY. It's understandable there is still a thriving market in the developed world for petroleum fuels.

I think we've finally reached a point now were the market is offering both individual and larger scale commercial/public energy solutions. It takes time for new infrastructure investment - it's lots of small efforts. Given the reality on the ground in most of the developed world I have to imagine it takes another 50 years to get to majority renewables.

So what's a petroleum producing world power to do? Seems like ensuring a balance of power and energy production for the next 50 years of world development is a responsible thing to do.

The leak about the Google winge fest after the Trump victory is an interesting data point.

On the one hand, the company claims not to be acting in a partisan way; on the other hand this comes out.

https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2018/09/12/leaked-video-googl...

The company continues to claim, despite the contents of the video giving an appearance partisanship, that they are not biased in any way.

Then they launch the leak hunt.

If the video is no big deal, then why the big hunt and the paranoia?

Google is not just some private company out there - it is a large monopoly with the power to sway elections. They need oversight.

You were making sense right up until "Letting cats outdoors is the abuse."

That's such a limited and judgemental way of thinking. I've lived in places of all shapes and sizes and I've had dozens of cats, some of them simply aren't happy without being outside and there's nothing wrong with letting them out if you're in the right area.
It still depresses me to read stuff like 'still wanna work'. Our society still is unable to create something besides work and don't get me wrong, i'm falling for this as well.

Disagree. As just one example, the Solvay conferences of the 1910s-20s. Much of QM was developed by informal discussions, both written and verbal.

Likewise, most of the initial challenges to scientific papers/theories/experimental results happens informally and only later will there be a peer reviewed counter (if the original has not between withdrawn or modified before). Reference the OPERA ftl neutrinos for a recent example.

The problem is this doesn't delineate very well between the feral and urban populations. While feral cats are enormously destructive to some ecosystems, and irresponsible pet ownership is obviously going to contribute to the feral cat population, it's far less clear that urban domestic cat populations contribute to ecosystem damage in any serious fashion - because far more damage was done when we went and paved over hundreds of sq miles of that ecosystem to build a city there.

What artificially increased labor supply?

If anything, I see companies bemoaning the absence of sufficient labor.

The only place I see too many people for too few jobs is in low-skilled manual labor and service. The ratio of people to jobs falls in these areas as a consequence of technological advancements. Not to say that isn't a problem, but it's hardly a nefarious conspiracy.

Microsoft Money. I didn't have to give access to all my accounts to some website, or pay an annual subscription for upgrades. I got keyboard shortcuts and reports and I could search for things to find out how old my computer is or when I went to Vegas.

It seems like in the physical economy, if you create something of value and you aren't making money off it, you will sell it and someone else can make money off it. With software like Picasa, it's just gone. Some programs release a sunset version, but you never know how long it will work and you can't promote it because they might take it down.

If a company is both an importer and an exporter (such that terms like 'net' make any sense) then yeah, the market is inefficient.
It's not exactly surprising, is it? Besides efficiency, what would increase the price of a piece of food? (In the long run I assume supply would match demand so a mismatch there wouldn't be the cause.)

So I think the answer to your question about increasing efficiency is probably pretty difficult. There's already a huge profit motive to increase efficiency, so if a few labcoats could easily solve the problem I'm sure they would have by now. I think the answer is to eat animals who reach maturity faster (or just grow more per unit time?). Like insects :-)

No, demand can only be controlled indirectly in free market, no-UBI economies. You are creating a supply to fill already existing demand in this case.

It does seem somewhat paranoid. Might be useful to exclude certain routes with an easy interface, but tremendously harmful by seemingly legitimizing the myth of “no-go” areas that has recently become a favorite talking point of the alt-right in my (perfectly safe) country.
They also have more money for health care
In every society, birth rates drop precipitously as soon as 1) modern medicine reduces infant mortality and 2) women get a better education. Both of these things are already happening in many parts of Africa, and the trend will hopefully accelerate greatly over the next couple of decades. Those 20 Syrian kids will be lucky to want 2 kids each by the time they've grown up, having been exposed to European culture and technology.

I don't trust any prediction about what Africa will look like by the end of this century. Every prediction I've seen is little more than a projection of past trends into the far future, but far too much change is going on across the continent right now to make such projections even remotely realistic.

I mentioned Zen2 in a single sentence at the end of my reply, in the context of if Zen2 has 256-bit units (I think the CTO has confirmed it will), the comparison wrt to Intel will change. Intel may have another chip out at that point, but it seems very likely that 2x 512-bit FMA units will still be the top end. My comment was also in the context of Zen2 chips in general, not necessarily just EPYC (since at this point we are comparing uarches). It seems relevant enough to mention it since the first of these chips are apparently imminent.

The rest of my comparison was Zen vs SKL and SKX. Zen competes against both of those, SKL in the laptop, desktop and (some) workstation space, and SKX in the server, (some) workstation and HEDT space. As a practical matter, for things like choosing on which hardware to deploy to in the cloud, it still also competes against Broadwell all the way back to Sandy Bridge, since chips of that era still dominate in the data center (and Intel still sells a ton of those chips).

> But it's still important to acknowledge where Zen falls short compared to Skylake-X.

I don't see how you could read my post and come to another conclusion? AVX-256 performance falls somewhere between half (worst case) and approximately equal (best case) to Intel, depending on your load. FMA-heavy, and L1/L2-hit load heavy will be close to worst case, and some integer, suffle/permute heavy or memory bound loads will be closer to best-case.

Our society isn't ready for workers to function longer at their jobs and still maintain the pace of innovation and opportunity for younger workers with new ideas. Human nature resists change, and often the only thing that allows dominant ideas to be supplanted is that their powerful supporters retire or die. Imagine what our government would be like if Strom Thurman or Joseph McCarthy were still dominant politicians.
