That can be applied to the Sydney Opera House, though on a slightly different scale.

I've started making the trip by ferry to Circular Quay to have a coffee at a cafe by the water. The Opera House an amazing building and I marvel at the political will required to get it started (and finished). It took 14 years to complete and went 14 times over budget. It had a lottery created to pay for it!

The nearby Harbour Bridge is another construction that went further than was necessary at the time. Both are spectacular.
Yes, there are people selling copies on Amazon
Not at all. Here in Brisbane (the AU one) the city council got local artists to do them as works showcasing our city's lifestyle. There's hundreds of different works of art around the place, and they run the gamut from a graffiti-style work to more traditional pieces. It really does help jazz up an otherwise pretty boring piece of infrastructure.

Say I send you a mutable object as an argument of a message / method-call while holding on to that same object in some variable as well. You modify that object without telling me. Does that mean you are spookily communicating with me?

I would say no because you are not communicating with me at all. I am unaware that you have modified the object.

I can ask that object about its state and that way detect that somebody has changed it. But how can I ask it about its state? Only by sending it a message/calling its method, IF I am using an "Object-Oriented Language".

There is nothing spooky about multiple observers having access to the same shared mutable object, is there? They can still only extract information from it by - sending a message - in an Alan Kayesque Object Oriented language.

But in a hybrid language like JavaScript where I can directly read and write and even delete fields of an object it is spooky, this value was just here and now it is no longer and I don't know why because somebody else somewhere deleted that field.
One of the most common instances of generalized experts weighing in on topics they're not actually experts in happens in politically-related posts here, although it usually only comes in the form of downvotes.

You can cite science and demographic facts while leaving out your own overt normative opinions, yet you will still get downvoted from both 'sides' who think they are being slighted if you don't give a clear opinion. Unfortunately this is the way scientific method-driven experts talk (and generally anyone who's into political science rather than political opinion) - but in this domain it really sets non-experts off for some reason.

The thing is, most people are taught at a young age that their political opinion matters a lot, which probably has something to do with generalized experts walking into this domain thinking they're already experts and getting quickly frustrated when they realize they're not, lashing out at the source of that frustration via downvotes.

Back in the day the responses to these kinds of topics used to be via comments, now it's almost always via drive-by downvotes. I used to bemoan the inane buzzword replies back in the forum days because they were typically boring and predictable, but they were still infinitely better than the downvote without comment that is the norm for this site (and even more common on reddit).
You believing that renaming a file is difficult in Vim shows that you don’t know Vim as well as you think you do.

Here, I’ll do it completely from memory for you, while typing on my iPhone.

And of course, you could always use the command line to rename anything.

Not every retiree is over 65. And besides, Medicare is getting very expensive, too:

How many retirees do you really think there are on individual coverage plans?

Besides that if you are part of a group insurance plan, they aren’t part of your group, or your risk pool.

Exactly. Now that the affordable care act regulated insurance companies ability to determine patients, higher risk people are joining and having their healthcare subsidized by the other plan members.

Do you really think that there are that many higher risk people who can afford to be on the exchange? And once again, they are not part of your pool if you are under a group plan. If they are part of your group plan, they would have been eligible for the same prices before the ACA.

Now that companies are forced to charge the same rates, there's nothing stopping people from not buying any health insurance (or very cheap health insurance) until they start having high medical costs and then joining an insurance plan to have their costs born by the other customers. People are smart. If they can have their cake and eat it too by passing their costs off to other people, they're going to do it.

If only the people who came up with the ACA had “mandated” health insurance or force them to pay a penalty. Oh wait! They did...

Not every retiree is over 65. And besides, Medicare is getting very expensive, too:

And that had nothing to do with the ACA.

I'd lay odds it will just be the usual cause - habitat loss. These insects evolved to inhabit in wild environment. Now we moved most of it over to monoculture.

There is actually a good documented example. https://academic.oup.com/bioscience/article/55/1/80/248302

Back when I was young locust plagues were a thing. They wiped out vast areas crop land. We they came near the cities the eat the washing on the line.

I noticed they were dropping off. Now I haven't heard about a locust plague anywhere in at least a decade. Which was odd, because when they were happening we spent huge amounts of money trying to control them. Planes would fly through the things dispensing insecticide, but it wasn't terribly effective because the insect bodies with pile up inside the engines causing them to over heat. In fact nothing we did seem to have much effect.

What wiped them out was changes in land use. Part of their life cycle was burring their eggs just below the surface on fertile grass land. Planting crops wasn't a killer issue for them - but ploughing was. Eventually we converted all those locust breeding grounds to crop land, and once we did that they were gone.

They are gone forever now - extinct. If you read the article you can see we were triumphant over eliminating a major pest for a while. Now, not so much.

> While it's often the same multinational consortia who bid on and win

Maybe identifying why the same companies keep getting these contracts and under-delivering and/or merely uses subcontractors. Then attempt to fix that system as a first step before throwing more money at the problem?

Possibly by introducing more competition by making the bidding process easier, hiring multiple companies by breaking down the projects into smaller pieces, having strings tied to contracts based on performance, bonuses and other financial rewards to incentivize reaching goals under budget, include funding for an oversight team to monitor paper trails and check who gets paid + their connections to government, demand public transparency reports, etc.

It's not, but since copyright infringement is a civil infraction, not a criminal one, it's up to the victim to sue.
Yeah, that's a pallet expander, and very common in orthodontics.
no, the argument is that Let's Encrypt is doing a better job at trustworthiness than our previous attempt at using Perspectives to vouch for self-signed certificates, and so at least self-signed folk can have a fairly seamless upgrade to LE if they want.

However, if you want better trust, you can always use a CA you trust more than Lets Encrypt (including a private one, if you're on a private federation, of course).

Meritocracy: a system in which the talented are chosen and moved ahead on the basis of their achievement

Of course meritocracy exists. If it didn't, I'd be a professional athlete instead of a programmer and I'd make a huge salary.

Or maybe I'd be an astronaut, or a brain surgeon.

Thankfully, meritocracy exists and allows the truly gifted and hard-working people who excel at those jobs to hold those spots.

I think I make a pretty decent coder. But I'd just stink on an NBA court, in brain surgery, and probably in a space shuttle.
Agreed, I think a resume with just yoe, last 10 years of companies worked at/positions/years, education, and 4 our 5 technologies/areas currently interested in working on is enough.

You could probably drop education from it if you have 5 or more yoe.

Frankly you could do this in one 5 or 6 line paragraph without a resume

I never read them anymore. It’s such a waste of time. Totally useless compared to our phone screen templates.
Uh..no..I'm not sure where you're getting your facts but no this is completely false. Most Americans have either Medicare/Medicaid, or various levels of employer sponsored healthcare, most of which are really poor or push large burdens on their employees. I have fully paid for healthcare through my employer and I STILL have a $5000 max out of pocket that I have to cover before insurance fully covers me. To put that in perspective that's an entire month's income in a country where most people live paycheck to paycheck.

Oh and the cherry on top of that is that in the US you can literally be fired for getting a prolonged medical illness, such as, oh say, cancer, which impacts nearly every single American. It's totally legal, which then takes your wonderful healthcare and removes it right when you need it most and can least afford to lose it. Another fun fact is that it's really hard for most people to work when getting prolonged medical care, which means, again you can't really pay for the bills you are getting.

If you think quality is great, then you're lucky. US hospitals can flat out refuse to treat you properly if you're "lucky" enough to go to a Christian based hospital, which will deny care unless life threatening, in some states this nears the majority of hospitals.

So no, most people who go bankrupt from medical bills in America HAVE health insurance. You're living in a fantasy bubble I suggest you step out of before you get a huge shock. I sincerely hope you never have to experience this first hand because it's absolutely hell for those who have to go through it.

I don't mean to suggest US healthcare providers are poor, it's generally the best in the world if you live in the east coast, Texas, or west coast the south and midwest generally have poorer coverage with the exception of cities. We basically have the best healthcare that you can afford, the problem is that most people can't afford it.
But it is indeed quite a bit more computationally intendive, especially for the highest quality models.
For you the implications of message passing might be apparent instantly but for me and maybe others it would've been easier to grasp data ownership by simply telling us about data ownership.

You wanted to explain data ownership, but what you got was cells, computers, networks and finally "message passing".

It's nice to hear that you had a great experience in grad school; sadly, the original article and the comments here indicate that your experience isn't universal today (at Stanford or elsewhere) by any means.

With regard to some of your specifics: good courses (and/or courses with industry luminaries) aren't the same as a supportive environment for completing your Ph.D. research and dissertation. We should probably question whether pressure-cookers really are the best environment for grad students.

Another tip: Don't remap your comma (,) key to leader.

Many people suggest this — and I don't know why — but it shadows the command(verb? motion?) to move to the previous match in a line-wise find.

Some people in this thread say they skip through a line by word with w/W/e/E, but sometimes it's faster to see the character you want to jump to, say it's the number 4, and do f4. If the cursor lands on an earlier occurrence of the character that you didn't know was there, hit ; to jump to the next one. If you skip too far, hit , to go back again.

The server-to-server specification was only formally released on February 5 of this year. Before that, it was certainly necessary to do reverse-engineering of synapse in order to build a HS, but it no longer is. The lack of server implementations just over a month after the release of the spec isn't good evidence of a bad spec. I strongly disagree with Jason's (who has been openly hostile to most of the matrix community including me) characterization of the spec in its current form.

Disclosure: I like matrix and have hacked on a few matrix-related projects as a hobby activity (Jason would refer to this as buying into Matthew's (the CEO of New Vector, the company primarily driving matrix) personal cult). That's it.

This is a pretty damning statement, with respect to the original safety analysis submitted to the FAA:

"The safety analysis... assessed a failure of the system as one level below “catastrophic.” But even that “hazardous” danger level should have precluded activation of the system based on input from a single sensor — and yet that’s how it was designed."

Neither Boeing nor the FAA should have given this a pass.

He didn't "rejuvenate" the economy. He doubled the deficit and the economy is still growing more or less as fast as it was under Obama. His actions are going to make the next recession worse.
The FAA, citing lack of funding and resources, has over the years delegated increasing authority to Boeing to take on more of the work of certifying the safety of its own airplanes.

Additional comment:

After regulatory capture, it is not clear to me that any subsystem reviews are valid.

MCAS is not the only subsystem revised (or introduced) for the MAX series.

All "FAA" so-called reviews need to be inspected for validity. (Quotes because Boeing not the FAA did the reviews). And recertification will take months.
The "good luck talking to your own federation" comment is being taken out of context. I can't find it in my history (so I assume it's been paraphrased), plus from memory I think it was the final line in an argument over how some bit of the protocol should be implemented. After failing to convince the guy that our approach was better than his proposal, I gave up with "okay, you can always do it your way, but you'll only be speaking to yourself" or something similar. I'm not sure this is evidence of being hostile to alternative servers, but if anything an encouragement for people to experiment with variations on the spec if they think they can do better :|
