This fleece vest is something that's come across from trading floors.

It started at SAC capital management (now Point 72). SAC was famous for very carefully creating an environment for peak efficiency. Noise was bad for concentration, so the SAC trading floor was really quiet. Even the phone ringers were off. You had to pick up the phone when the light blinked. They found that people tended to perform best when the thermostat was set to quite cold, so that's what they did. Then they found that you didn't have to completely freeze but but being just a little cold put your brain in the right state so vests became popular. You were't uncomfortable but your arms were cold so you got the performance benefit for the least amount of discomfort.

Making a trading floor really cold is actually quite a convenient thing to do because other than a data center there aren't a lot of places with a higher density of heat generating computing equipment than a trading floor and also because traditionally people wore suits so a little cold was fine.

The Jeans, shirt and fleece is not or at least post the initial spread from SAC was not a Wall Street thing in general. It was quite specifically a trader's "uniform". You didn't want to wear your suit jacket all day long because the mesh on your office chair (usually an aeron) would rub against it and make holes in the back of your jacket. So you took off your suit jacket, took your vest off the hangar in your office, hung your jacket and put on the vest if it was cold.

I think that GP's question still stands though. Has the reduction in density of juveniles (either per capita or per square mile) had an effect on juvenile crime?

Have you looked at JP's background or work in any way? He's a clinical psychologist + professor of psychology at a pretty reputable university (U of Toronto) with decades of experience, including an active clinical practice (until 2017 I think.)

I don't claim to have read _everything_ he has written, but claiming that he doesn't base his arguments in a rational, scientific grounding is a real stretch at best, and disingenuous at worst.

The question deserves more attention.

Personally, I am just getting started in the FP world and I haven’t yet had the chance to make money with FP.

The toy projects I have worked on have literally made me into a total CS nerd and now I love programming. Why does that mean anything? Well I got through undergrad in Comp Eng., several internships, and my first job questioning whether or not I picked the right career. I have been using Python, Java, Javascript, and C# for a few years, yet 2 months into Clojure, I’m convinced it’s my calling.

I finally see a future with me programming in it, and so far I have only really touched Clojure and emacs.

I can see on an application level that the code I write in Clojure vs the code I write in C# does a lot more with a lot less lines and characters.

I don’t really care about the numbers of lines or whatever, but the expressivity and syntax is amazing compared to Java, for instance.

I have yet to discover how hard it is to get hired for FP, but I would imagine being young and inexperienced compared to many professional FPers, would make the job search quite difficult.

I actually just started a list of companies to help myself and others find work in the future:-)

If you're going to compare wage numbers between nations, why are we comparing gross pay? If you're taxed drastically more, the pay difference isn't very relevant. Obviously you get social benefits, which become much harder to compare. But comparing someone taxed at 39% to someone taxed far far less by comparing gross wages is nonsensical to me. When you look at the tax rate, the difference in pay is far less severe.
>Sure it does. If the law says that domain X is not accessible in country Y, then ICANN has to scrub domain X from the list of domains when queried from country Y.

But thing is that ICANN doesn't have a list of domains. All it has is a list of tlds and the dns servers for them. So if www.example.com. was blocked in some random country, the conversation with ICANN would go something like this:

client: what's the IP for example.com?

ICANN: I don't know, but you should ask verisign (the operator of the .com TLD)

You could argue that ICANN should have responded with "I don't know" (which will cause the recursion to stop), but that's sort of pointless because if you really wanted to know, you could ask ICANN to resolve some random.com domain and you would get the response that you need ("go ask verisign"). The company you want to block/sanction/threaten here is verisign (the actual company that controls the .com zone), not ICANN (the company that controls the root zone).
Is that what you believe is happening in the parent post?
If your a company you draw the line somewhere near where your lawyers and accountants tell you to, on behalf of shareholders.
Or let's not, because this discussion doesn't have anything to do with how they view each other as neighbors - it's about perceptions towards "Western" occupation vs. Russian occupation.
then maybe you should grafitti the Sistine Chapel. You claim you're making it prettier but why is that up to you? If want to paint it make a proposal and ask for permission.

Besides beauty is in the eye of the beholder. 95% of the graffiti I see is just someone's name/callsign/initials. It's not remotely pretty. It's just blatent selfish self promotion
I did a good bit of graffiti when I was younger. 10 years later, I'm still in the creative industry and I still love graffiti. But I'm mostly very ashamed, now that I'm old enough to have property of my own and skin in the game. Just a preface in case your gut response is that I'm an old prude and don't "get it". I definitely get it.

I'll mimic the parent you're responding to: street art is great. By "street art" I mean things that err more towards murals than tagging, and that are ideally consensual/legal, but if not are at least harm-reducing (side of an abandoned warehouse is not on the same moral plane as the side of a church or dwelling unit).

1) If I took the bumpers off a car because I thought it looked slicker that way, would the owner care that I felt I enhanced it? I would guess not.

2) Pollsters would have a very hard time finding any cohort of people that are pro-graffiti enough to be described as "everyone else". You can test this on some random passersby. "I did this to a guy's house without him asking. I made it better, right?". What type of responses do you imagine?

3) That people get upset by graffiti on their property is common knowledge. I don't believe that you don't think anyone cares. Nobody thinks that. You might think they shouldn't care, which is closer to the excuses I subsisted on when I was doing that kind of thing, but it's a very different argument.

4) There are very few forms of graffiti that are "no-harm-no-foul". A building that is scheduled for demolition and is out of view of passersby, utility tunnels/infrastructure that are out of view, do not have markings that would be obscured, and where paint doesn't impact their functionality are the only ones that come to mind. And the second one's out if some guy has to come down there and clean it because the city makes him.

I like my outside wall blank. That's why it's blank. If I wanted it a different way, I'd make it so. But nevermind that graffers are violating the autonomy over my own space that I work hard to preserve. Even if I don't oppose what's on the wall there is a cost being incurred. For me to change what's on that wall costs money. If you're wrong, and everyone doesn't love graffiti, then my property is now less desirable. It's harder for me to sell my home. My economic mobility is decreased. Maybe that 2k in property value makes a real difference to my family. The city might get mad at me and fine me, which costs me money, unless I have the wall cleaned or painted, which costs me money. Graffers are having fun, selfishly, and sticking future-me with the bill. To break the law to violate my property and cost me money, and claim they did me a favor? Nah.

5) Why would people be up in arms on my behalf? Empathy! I know I don't like getting punched in the face, so I know how it feels when I see that happen to my neighbor. I don't want to see him harmed any more than I want that harm for myself, and because he and I are part of a community, his pain is my pain. Neighbors are there for each other.

I assume you apply the same thinking to software, or movies, which also create artificial scarcity. It is just that movies and software are a new thing. Do you?

This is one of the main things which has driven the development of julia's logging system; it seems that some people just don't like debuggers very much (I'm one of them) and find staring at logs and attempting to run the code in their head to be a productive alternative.

I think it's the difference between inspecting local vs global program behavior. A debugger gives a very local view of the program but the most difficult bugs are ones where the local behavior is (or seems) correct but the global behavior is wrong. In that case it can be much more useful to run the program to completion with plenty of logging and then to carefully inspect the record of how the state changed.
Apple screws are not generic parts-bin screws. They choose specific screws for each location. I assume because they work with manufacturers, their cost for a laptop full of custom sized screws vs a few common screws is negligible.

Not an apples-apples comparison, but for PCs you can buy cheap sets of standard screws you can use for a long time:

"> If you don't think artists should be paid, then neither should programmers."

"Pretty sure that RMS is advocating for that kind of vision."

That's a common misconception. He actually has no problem with programmers making money.

The GNU Project has an article on this, which starts by saying:

"Many people believe that the spirit of the GNU Project is that you should not charge money for distributing copies of software, or that you should charge as little as
possible--just enough to cover the cost. This is a misunderstanding.

"Actually, we encourage people who redistribute free software to charge as much as they wish or can."

"Performing music was a community activity people used to entertain themselves"

But FTA:
MMT rejects the modern consensus that economies should be steered primarily by the raising and lowering of interest rates. MMTers believe that the natural rate of interest in a world of fiat money is zero and that pegging it higher is a giveaway to the investor class.

So according to the article, MMT actually holds that interest rates are held too high under conventional monetary policy.
Your body is your property because only you are allowed to determine what happens to it.

Now saying it's not property because it's special is like saying your car is not your property because it's special (e.g. with respect to traffic law).

It can be both: special and your property.

The whole thing is a relic of a weird system of law.

In addition, like most half-baked economic insights, it considers the economy of a country a closed system, as if other countries don't exist to buy products when prices fall.
I'm yet to be convinced that the adjective "intellectual" in "Intellectual DarkWeb" holds up to any scrutiny either. I think history shows we should be suspicious of movements that claim the intellectual high-ground (or moral high-ground) in their name - even when I am sympathetic to their conclusions.

Examples include: The "Brights", the "Rationalist" Societies, "Euthanasia" (translating to 'good death').

The "Intellectual" DarkWeb is populated by many examples fringe figures whose contributions are considered laughable in their own claimed fields, Stephan Molyneux being a complete joke in Philosophical circles but impressing his teenage and tech-trained audience is a prime example. Christina Hoff Sommers is another figure whose brand of feminism seems far more widely supported by people who've never taken the time to read a book by a single other feminist. Sam Harris's forays into Moral Philosophy and Free Will again do not find a sympathetic audience of any significant size among people who actually study these subjects and know much about them. Jordan B Petersen is an unusual case because his noteriety and audience is far more to do with his political statements (attacking trans people, misogynist comments, claims of a conspiracy of Post-Modern Marxists) that are substantially separatable from both his academic work (Maps of Meaning) or his weird self-help manual (even though this shoehorns in his conspiracy theorizing).
I’ve seen videos and read lengthy articles about the internals of OAuth a few times. Mo has done an exceptionally good job to keep it bare minimal and used a simple analogy to explain a complex topic. Definitely recommend spending a few minutes if you feel wtf about OAuth.

I think OO or FP probably works best for enterprise apps. I don't see it as necessary for a lot of scientific apps though.
Yes, I have kids. It's especially important for kids to learn how to express consent/non-consent clearly, because they can be easily manipulated, confused, and lied to.

I don't want a molester or bully to teach my child that molestation was my child's fault because "'no' means 'yes'".

"literal all the time" is absurd hyperbole. Literal about personal bodily safety is good sense. And frankly, sarcasm is a "low" way of speaking, and we'd all do better to have less of is, particularly because people tend to forget that sarcasm is communicated through tone, so they keep trying and failing to use sarcasm effectively in text communication.
Can you just... stop being a mathematician like that? I'm not sure it's allowed.
There are a lot of ways of researching ideas, what works for me:
- setup a Trello board, post there each idea in a card, then you can arrange, demote, etc them. Your brain will know you are “hunting” for ideas, and will be working in “background”. Hopefully a few times randomly but steadily, you will be writing those down in the board.
- ask people about problems they have.
- subscribe to services like Opportunity Overload, they share problems everyday
- Look around you, trying to reinvent or improve things
- take a walk, don’t think, the ideas will come
Novelty is definitely a factor. Improv training increases the novelty people find in interactions, and not coincidentally, people comment that it makes them feel younger.

Dave Rubin is not an excellent interviewer. He's a sycophant more akin to Charlie Rose (also an overrated interviewer). He spends more time talking about the fact that they're having conversations then actually having the conversations.

Throughout my career, I have never met anyone who used MS tools that did not find them excellent and productivity enhancing. In fact I could probably add to MS any of the language vendors from years ago. I remember using Borlands terminal based C++ environment back in the early 90's. That's about 30 years ago and that environment is better than what I use programming on Linux today.

I have often thought that programmers posture over their tool independence to signal their excellence. Before the current generation of programmers, many programmers would proclaim how they didn't need to use higher level languages to assist them in programming because assembly language was sufficient given their reasoning powers. Today programmers proclaim they don't need types to insure data invariants as their reasoning powers are sufficient. They proclaim they don't get any value from unit testing because they can maintain correctness across all development phases using their reasoning powers alone. They proclaim they don't need automatic garbage collection because they can insure correct memory usage using their reasoning powers. They have no use for IDEs, debuggers, or profilers because they believe none of these tools could augment their reasoning powers.

Excellent programmers can indeed compensate for poor tooling through their reasoning powers alone. But if history is a guide, people who don't use the best tools, practices and technologies to produce the best work, at some point, wont produce the best work.
play fights are consensual. You can and should consent before a play fight starts, and have a clear way to end the play fight before you start.

A quick and dirty way to make that ability easier (easier than creating a native app at least) would be to just offer a quick "paste or upload image here" section that then would allow the user to use a color picker on said image.

Then one could take a quick screenshot of their screen and just paste it into the web app.
Because you literally can't loan $5M in physical gold if you only have $1M in physical gold in your vaults.

You can't just make gold out of thin air. Same with a bitcoin.

You can, however, issue gold-denominated notes in $5M even if you only have $1M in the bank. But you're not lending gold, you're lending paper currency.

Beyond the JS compatibility, having a language with a more feature-rich static type system than Java, but which can step down into dynamic-land on a whim, makes for an amazing developer experience.
