Don't get me wrong, nginx is big and has more experience. Different headers, compression, security etc.

I would not even advice people using something like LEAR alone for the fact of undetected security issues.
- I have no idea. It could be a rise in competence - it could be a rise in the size of businesses, bringing a commensurate rise in productivity (the average worker is also more productive, not sure if their salary reflects that though).

Actually median salaries have been relatively flat for the same time period (in the UK and US, at least) [0]. Where do you think the wealth created by the workers' increased productivity is going, since it's clearly not going to the workers?

I'm not sure that people "with skin in the game" are really the best people to ask, since their justifications are likely to be local (as in, "our competitor is offering $X so we must beat that") without much insight into wider economic conditions.

There is a trend that confuses this (apparent) simplification trend with "evolution" or "progress".

Don't fool yourself, though.

Accents are there for a reason.

Orthography influences pronunciation. In time people will start pronouncing those words as the orthography suggests rather than deducing it from the context.

Even if only because the context won't be discernible. But, generally, because of the principle of the lesser effort: it's always easier to just read what is there than thinking which pronunciation applies.

Eventually, the words will become homophonous (edit: assuming there are other words which differ only in the accents) - you'll effectively loose the words or they'll change, probably for worse.

The language will become more ambiguous and more dependent on the context knowledge - which will be hard to get if you don't know the language well to begin with.

In other words, you've just made the language "harder" to learn.

So, in effect, it's not a simplification at all.

I find in interesting that, to the question of "can someone explain in plain English what is Design Thinking?", your answer is a link to a Stanford crash course, and some story about a company that produces vapes, with a link to a long-winded article about them.

This makes me strongly suspect that Design Thinking is indeed BS.
Thanks. I've used FreeBSD before, but have far more experience using Linux in production, I may have to give it another go some time for specific purposes like this.
Most PE funds have a minimum of $5m-$10m (less for VC)... so even $100m isn't enough to go directly to a PE firm....typically at this size, you might go through a fund of funds...

Even at a small size, it's possible to invest in alternatives through public markets. I have my pension in listed private equity. You can also invest in private debt BDCs and closed-end funds that do infrastructure and a bunch of other things.

>"If you don't support content creators with money, how can you expect content to be produced ? Content creators need to eat too, especially indie ones"

They can throw content at me willy-nilly, but they can't expect me to watch it. I simply let my browser do the filtering, rather than my eyeballs. I also default-deny all 3rd-party frames and scripts, due to security concerns. That alone happens to filter out the majority of ads, all by itself.

This situation is not at all comparable to copyright infringement, where you have to actively seek out the content in question.

Besides, I would never click any ad anyway, no matter if it's a simple text ad or a spinning, jumping, music-playing animated pop-up monstrosity. Never.

But I do support content creators, most often through buying their games on Steam/GOG, though direct purchases on Bandcamp or through Patreon.

However the movie/TV show segment is missing a similarly accessible service. Netflix/HBO/etc. all limit my region to a very reduced catalogue, and they implement overly-strict DRM that prevents me from actually using their services without rebooting to my (gaming-only) Win10 install.

At least Spotify works brilliantly on Linux. The client may be a relatively heavy Electron app, but it works.

It would have been a terrible move politically -- if you actually did that, even in a good business relationship it'd look like you were trying to cut the account manager out of the deal.

I'm not sure whether you can generalise over Europe that easily. There's quite the stigma on smoking in the Netherlands, which has for the largest part gained a foothold after banning smoking in working places (including cafés and bars). I haven't heard of a Dutch workplace offering special smoking rooms so far.

I've always hated shaving. And I also hate trimming beards. When I was working in meatspace, I just kept my head and face at about 3-5 mm. But now, I'm just Mr Natural.

It's embarrassing that many of these supposed innovations are based on the messenger, not the message. For example my officemate (Andrew Grimshaw, 1990) published a PhD on a practical dataflow distributed system infrastructure a decade before mapreduce implemented a subset of his PhD but hyped it to death from Google, a very hype-driven company in general. These days Apache airflow is Grimshaw's work on steroids.

You also need to consider overlap of investments with the main source of income. For Bezos, it makes no sense to just buy a NASDAQ ETF since most of his wealth is already highly correlated with it. Either he hedges this effect out or skews investments otherwise. In either case he'll need knowledgeable people that can plan the effects on both financial and tax side.

That's also a likely reason why family office holdings often look very odd as they often only provide a hedge in case the main source of income dries up. And therefore, they cannot have any connection with it. Pure performance on a standalone basis is often only second priority.
Kind of off topic but it doesn’t look like there are any tests in this repo. Is that common in the open source C community? I see several people suggesting benchmarks but what about functional tests? I don’t write much C and am curious about community norms.

The problem is that most very rich people have very concentrated positions. The family office might only manage 10% of the wealth with 90% being in one company. The investment then has to be structured so that the 10% survive even if the 90% vanish overnight (unlikely but not impossible). The performance on those 10% isn't that important, ownership in the company drives most of the fluctuation in wealth anyway.
I agree, I don't claim it's ready

If you're looking for low-hanging-fruit to optimise, there's a ton of "foo = create_string(<some constant>)" and then "delete_string(foo)" not long afterwards in the code.

I also think I've found a bug: the code seems to assume that the colon in a header will be followed by one space (see parse_request_line in http.c) but according to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.2 and my experience, that space is optional and there may be multiple of them.

(This is part of the reason I'm not a fan of text-based protocols: parsing is full of annoying edge-cases.)

It seems like the very rich feel comfortable having a large percentage of their wealth in a few investments. At the opposite end of the wealth spectrum, I like extreme diversification- caring to preserve some spending power in the face of an unknown future rather than maximizing investment gains. I believe that all people need to be happy is a comfortable place to live, good food and fellowship with friends and family. Because of this belief, a conservative highly diresified approach makes sense to me.
That's not what causes polarization. Those just speed it up and amplify it.
An artificial moral agent architecture
A friend of mine who manages ultra wealth people said most people who turn up don't say "How much can you make me" but say "Can you make sure I'm never poor".

It's often about preservation of wealth more than gains for these people.

That said I've discussed some returns they make and it's incredible. I don't want to say what I recall, as it was a couple years back and it sounds like an exaggeration. They said this is partly because they get access to deals that don't hit the wider market and you need serious cash to get in the room to have that chat. And I guess these manager have a bunch of the right people attached to them so it makes an easy stop.

Millennial was a renaming of gen Y. People born after the turn of the millennium are normally down as gen Z, though I assume someone will come up with a snappier name for that in time. Precisely what their view on avocados is remains unclear.

Note that if you're in the older end of the cohort (mid-30s), there's some effort to rebrand those as 'Xennials', if for some reason you're really bothered by being called a millennial :)
I'm not in the US, but it's a barrier everywhere AFAICT.

It's an admission of past criminal behaviour and potential future criminal behaviour. People who are addicted are very likely to be in possession for fear of getting withdrawals as much as anything else.

It seems as though Portugal has had a lot of success with its approach.
>This also occurs at the street level. I've read stories of people not wanting to talk to the police about a murder because they are afraid the police will find some weed and arrest them instead.

Sadly a common example is the question whether to call 911 in case of domestic violence for the same reason.
Or at least people who were aware around the turn of the millennium; a 25 year old is a millennial, but an 18 year old probably isn't, for example.

The article clarified that family offices tend to invest in a quite economically healthy way: diverse, and more attracted to startups. Which is why the consolidation of money this time around does not pose the same threat as 1998.

VIIIX's[0] Institutional Plus Shares (with a $100 million requirement) has an expanse ratio of 0.02%, so that's $200k.

It would be hard to find someone at this salary level who can match the tracking performance of Vanguard. If they achieve a tracking error that's 1% higher than that of Vanguard's, that would mean an annual loss of approximately $800k compared to Vanguard (1,000,000,000 * 8% * 1%).

Have you deployed your app to production yet and is it downloadable/purchasable from the App store or play store? Companies love hearing about live applications and how you've maintained them to meet client needs or responded to a production level bug fast. That will also give you metrics to show off more than just here are a few play apps that I made and have sitting in localhost.

Also it will show future interviewers that you know how to deploy a Cordova app which will raise your marketability even more; at least from what I've heard deploying to Apple is a pain in the butt. More so than to Google since that's the wild west.

Yet even now the removal message refers to it as a “fun” fact, making me somewhat less enthusiastic about OP’s moral compass. Although, I guess, in the best possible light, and some squinting, one could consider this an artifact of inelegant phrasing, or anchoring on whatever the post previously said. Then again, when first told of the true nature of their post, the instant reaction was to defend it with pretend ignorance, not to do a quick search trying to verify it.

Meanwhile, that reply calling the original post anti-semitic propaganda remains gray. It’s somewhat telling that the community seems to consider a myth of jewish war profiteering more worthy than an abservant user calling it out.

But, to quote OP: anti-semitism, “no longer fun. lol”

The universal decay of collective memory and attention
People want the big, expensive movies with big-name actors. How do we know that? Because that's what they pay for. That's the competitive market at work. With modern technology, digital cameras, digital editing, and digital distribution, you can make movies for a fraction of the price of Hollywood blockbusters. There's no barriers to entry stopping you from distributing your low-budget movies to hundreds of millions of people via Youtube, etc. But nobody wants to watch that indie crap. They want $250 million MCU blockbusters.
Indeed, you're seeing the push towards higher production values in TV too. Low-budget weekly shows are being replaced by high-budget "prestige TV." Back in the day, "Lost" was expensive (for a new show with an unknown cast) at $3-4 million per episode. Today, Netflix and Amazon are blowing $50-150 million to pre-shoot an entire season of shows like House of Cards, the Crown, Altered Carbon, etc.

And at the end of the day, it's all just entertainment. The market is structured to give people what they want, what's wrong with that?

WebKitGTK+ is active. QtWebKit was replaced by an embedded Chromium (Qt Web Engine) sometime after Nokia sold Qt. There are attempts to revive QtWebKit, but I don't think it's up to date, even on security patches only.
I don't really disagree with any of that and I'm not sure how that's a rebuttal.

I think they can be complementary. "Filter bubbles" work as the discovery part that guides you toward the best communities (from your POV) and also gives directional information about their boundaries.

If people are interested in learning about immigration and criminal justice reform and taxes, those topics will be amply covered in the community formed around their "filter bubble."

If your point is that everyone should be interested in those topics, I think you're making a different point that is much harder to argue.
