Of course not.

Look, I get it, people turn you down for jobs all the time. I am a white male, and I HATE looking for a job in my non-mainstream market, because I am constantly passed over for being a generalist/introvert/socially awkward/you-name-my-worst-social-traits-and-recruiters-and-hiring-staff-hate-it. When I get my foot in the actual door, my bosses always LOVE my work.

If I wasn't a, you know, a non-protected demographic, I could just hop on the internet and whine about how these strangers are discriminating against me for my [protected status] and that we need to fix years of bias, when it's really that they binned my resume for being too weird, too non-specialized, too X for their tastes.

The basic problem here is that there are too many confounders in why a particular individual is denied a particular position, and it's way too easy to cry "X-ism!" instead of actually breaking down the hiring process into actionable feedback for everyone.

That's coming from a guy whose startup Viaweb was essentially made completely irrelevant by a competitor (Amazon) with a better strategy. Does anyone really buy things on Yahoo stores anymore?

If you want to grow fast and sell out, then you probably don't need to worry about competitors, but if you want to stay in business for a long time, you do need to worry about having sustainable competitive advantages.
> That's the thing about being put in front of the mirror: it hurts.

It doesn't, unless you're a gorgon or a vampire. No one is affected by this tactic. No one is hurt by it, shocked, or shamed, no one has the scales fall from their eyes at the revelation of the true nature of Western imperialism in the light of this simple reversal.

My family was a small-time landlord while I was growing up. We had more fires (plural) and totally thrashed rentals in 2 low-end houses (one SFR, one duplex) than I can remember. The SFR we had to totally rebuild twice over the course of perhaps 15 years. One tenant busted out every single piece of drywall because he was mad about being evicted after not paying rent for 6+ months. Another solved the problem of "please pickup any dog waste in the yard" with the genius plan of not letting the dog outside. Ever. The subfloors were soaked when she moved out. It wasn't just carpets that needed replacing, but all the way down to the joists and all the electric and HVAC outlets from rust.

Non-payment is also a real thing. The time commitment is higher on the lower-end properties (chasing payments, higher turnover, more damage on turnover [often well beyond security deposit, especially since the tenants know they can skip the last month or two's rent because evictions take longer than that and maybe justify themselves "since the landlord already has the security deposit and we need to save up for the next place's deposits anyway...")

People who think there are excessive profits in low-end rentals should totally disrupt that market by buying up all these cheap and easy-money properties and renting them out to undercut the market. Be ready to lose your ass financially, though.
Just playing devil's advocate, but how many words would you need to change before that manifesto ceases to be objectionable? Wouldn't it be trivial to 's/word/anotherword/g' to get around the censors?
PPP isn’t the actual amount. That’s why people are talking rightfully about nominal. Facebook makes money based off your nominal money, not an algo based PPP since it’s not a real number.

All those organizations you mention all agree USA is still on top for nominal GDP.

I unfortunately think you’re projecting with the people getting offended bit.

Perscriptive? Maybe. Compositional? Absolutely not.

I blame the things not being done sooner on Go.
Why would someone use Rust over Java/Kotlin/Scala/C#/F#? Macros would be a small improvement, but at the price of reflection (JVM has Clojure for this). If I was using one of those languages, I don't really think the performance gain from moving to Rust would outweigh the added mental overhead, cost of learning new libraries, or developer scarcity.

I would use Rust in place of C++ or C in a heartbeat (and I would probably pick it over Go until they have generics), but I wouldn't use it in place of those other languages for the same reason I wouldn't use C++ in place of them. They're already managed, and I wouldn't have used them in the first place if I needed Rust's performance.
PPP doesn’t matter at all for a web company trying to make money from different countries. If a GDP is going to matter. It’s going to be the one based on an actual real number.

I recently bought a mid-range automatic and switched from a lower-end quartz watch. While the quartz is absolutely less effort; you don't have to ever worry about winding it, there is something magical about the precision engineering of automatics. The second hand sweeping is really beautiful.
Economic injustice can easily span multiple generations. I am where I am today in no small measure because my parents could afford to provide me with a stable environment and a house full of books to read. I never had to work to help support the family, never had to deal with a family member addicted to drugs, never had to worry about drug gangs roaming the street that I lived on, never had to worry about someone judging me negatively or someone in authority harassing me because of the color of my skin. None of that was my doing. It happened simply because I was fortunate enough to be born to educated white parents.

Slavery was one of the greatest evils ever perpetrated by mankind. The 13th amendment may have begun the process of making it right, but that process is very far from finished.

SAGAFTRA rules do not permit actors to work for free, even if they get a percentage. (Despite claims that actors worked on the re-shoots for All the Money in the World for free, all of them except Mark Wahlberg were contractually obligated to participate in re-shoots, so they were already paid for their work. Marky Mark was not contractually obligated to participate in re-shoots, and collected roughly $5 million for his...efforts.)

They can work for minimum scale, and get a percentage of profits (Sandra Bullock and Gravity). The trick with Hollywood accounting is to know to ask for a percentage of the rights-owning entity, since the production entity is a loss vehicle that earns no income, and the licensing entity only earns a small markup for its "work" licensing the movie.

The distribution entity is frequently a third-party company or parent company. Distribution entities might get paid a % of revenue (most common if third-party distributor), a fixed or calculated fee for distributing the movie (i.e., Fox and Star Wars), or it might effectively own the rights altogether and get all of the revenues (Disney and other parent-company distributors, otherwise unncommon). In rare situations, the rights-holding entity is the distribution entity (i.e. Blumhouse).

I don't understand the point you're trying to make. Is your claim that even a person trying to be a maximally fair landlord of low-income property has to be a "slumlord"? How is this not a meaningless definition of the term?
You missed the "because", see my other answer.

I don't doubt, however, that being really thick-skinned is a necessary trait for surviving in that business. Soft-hearted types also don't last long as drug dealers, surprisingly.
Ask HN: What are some examples of appreciating assets to build wealth?
In the real world, there are appreciating assets like land, oil, and minerals to generate wealth.

I'm starting to build my skills in software. And I wonder if there are certain types of assets to think about. It looks like patents would be viewed as intangible assets. I'm curious if there are good examples of appreciating assets in the HN world?
China is doing what is a great advancement for the world: integrating east and west, and in the process bringing the long forgotten areas in the middle east into the world trading order. The more investment in the Silk road, the more we will have a robust economic system integrating countries that until now were forgotten by the previous world order.

Now wait just a moment - isn't pointing out things are "too white" exactly analogous? Yet that's somehow acceptable to say at almost any major media outlet [1]. You yourself implied his comment would have been okay if directed at Christians. Why should white people be the only group that's called out for over-representation?

I will leave you this quote from History of the New World by Girolamo Benzoni:

Egg of Columbus

"Columbus being at a party with many noble Spaniards, where, as was customary, the subject of conversation was the Indies: one of them undertook to say: —"Mr. Christopher, even if you had not found the Indies, we should not have been devoid of a man who would have attempted the same that you did, here in our own country of Spain, as it is full of great men clever in cosmography and literature." Columbus said nothing in answer to these words, but having desired an egg to be brought to him, he placed it on the table saying: "Gentlemen, I will lay a wager with any of you, that you will not make this egg stand up as I will, naked and without anything at all." They all tried, and no one succeeded in making it stand up. When the egg came round to the hands of Columbus, by beating it down on the table he fixed it, having thus crushed a little of one end; wherefore all remained confused, understanding what he would have said: that after the deed is done, everybody knows how to do it; that they ought first to have sought for the Indies, and not laugh at him who had sought for it first, while they for some time had been laughing, and wondered at it as an impossibility."
Well, he is in charge of this system. Why would he reply? He knows exactly what they do and how shady it is.

Of course they have an agenda, but I think it's much less nefarious than some think -- it's that they think housing insecurity is a major problem in the United States with knock-on effects in education, health, and household wellbeing. Of course it is a complex issue on how to address this — what mixture of regulation and free market solutions best serves people -- and I think the authors land in a position that is more in favor of regulation.

I strongly recommend Desmond's earlier book "Evicted" — houses, while assets for some, are filled with extremely real people with extremely real challenges as a result of income inequality (and, moreso, differences in household wealth). OP is totally correct in noting the importance of returns in drawing investment; OP is reminded that markets forces can yield exploitative conditions (as simple evidence, consider colonialism).

Remember when 4chan weaponized agains Shia LeBouf's flag and were able to determine the location of the ground flag based on the contrail evidence of the flight path of what the camera could see. The camera was only pointing at the sky, with the flag in the image. They were able to determine approx latitude due to the live stream revealing the sunset - and then comparing the paths of planes seen in the camera with flight data...

Then they drove to the location and took out the flag

They weren't 'forgotten' they were made irrelevant through technology (airplanes, shipping containers, etc) and geo-political trends (the fall of the ottoman empire).

As great as it sounds on paper there are quite a few economists who are skeptical about the ROI from all of these investments.

But I do like how bold it is, which you rarely find in western countries (large scale infrastructure projects). They can barely build a stretch of road without it costing 10x the budget and getting caught up in years of political horse trading.

What incentive could be added to have people view these photos on a regular basis? I think facebook could be one answer with it's global reach. They could do an official page or something and offer real discounts at partnering restaurants or stores from around the world if you spend time each month viewing all the pictures. Imagine the reach they could have. At the same time I feel that there should not be a business of restaurants and the like selling coupons on abuse photos but I think the greater good of finding these kids may be there. The reason I add a type of payment is because it is my belief that though people do mean well, without an incentive they are less likely to view these images. Or perhaps if add companies put those kind of pictures on the websites instead of ads I would disable the adblocker.

The point is that people will see you as an exploitative, greedy slumlord (per the article) unless you open your books to them, and even then I'm sure people can find something objectionable, since the definition of 'fair' varies.
When I look at a list of billionaires, for most of them I don't see any kind of value that they generate to society. In fact you will even find criminals like Donald Trump.

Those contracts are not enforceable. I guarantee you a win 100% of the time in California.

There are several exceptions:

1) you are the CEO or a top exec in a VERY large company. In that case your personal lawyers are involved in the negotiation of the contract, and it is assumed that you know what you are doing. But even in those rare cases, the law in on your side.
2) a non-compete COULD be part of the sale of your company (I wrote YOUR company, you own it, and your are not merely an employee, even senior employee).

Don't confuse that with the IP rights you give up to the company (legales like like we own EVERYTHING you have created or will create). You can still quit tomorrow with no notice given and work for whomever you feel like. Don’t use that IP, and don’t take ANYTHING with you (no files, no customers lists, no lines of code, no presentations, no emails). Then you are fine.

It's really funny. Even in my country where there aren't enough literate peoples, you find a hobo telling you what happened in movies such as Matrix, Avengers, Inception from what he heard the translator (VJs, video Jokers) saying.

But you know where all of this started ? In 90's with movies of Jackie Chan and Jet Li. We grew up not understanding what those "Chinese" were talking about but we (still) enjoyed it. We didn't know why they would start fighting ( unless it's about saving a girl, revenging a murdered parent...) but we enjoyed. At that time some cool guys started translating those movies to us with their "knowledge" of Chinese ... Lol.

I don't live there, but I've been to the places we're talking about. They don't have grocery stores, and the few stores that sell food cost a lot more than the stores I'm used to, for food that isn't so nutritious. The people there don't make exorbitant amounts of money, but they'd be better off if they had better access to affordable products. They are poor because the areas they inhabit have high costs of living.

Anyone who attempts to blog every single thing in their life is opening themselves up to showing off the less-than-perfect aspects of themselves. And that is what this site amounts to - call it a wiki, call it a blog, call it whatever you like, it is someone who spends a decent amount of their life self-documenting it.

I'd be far more likely to call them out on their Minimalism topic, as they clearly are far to the extreme on how much time they focus on documenting their life, which is not a minimalist pursuit.

Still, it is a personal site for a fellow human being, and I've always maintained that if someone if self-aware enough to make specific decisions on who they want to be, and how they want to live, they deserve respect for that.
Point taken.

Because now I think about it, the world bank and other western trade facilities are also, at heart, simply "debt trap diplomacy" as well.
