All complex organisms have some level of resource-intensive, executive control - civilizations are no different. Most people wouldn’t even know what to do with the means of production, other than in aggregate by buying stuff in a semi-free market with healthy regulations.

This reminded me of the talk "The Birth and Death of JavaScript" (2014) by Gary Bernhardt, where he goes into some of the more absurd possible implications of what happens when applications cross-compiled to JS approach or surpass traditional desktop performance: https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/the-birth-and-death...

To be honest, I am sad to say I have yet to meet a gay person for whom that advice would be necessary or helpful, as they already know; the tradeoff between fitting in and expressing one's inner life openly is something those I've met are depressingly familiar with. :( It's other people (who I hypothesize without evidence perhaps thought the 4chan "rules of the road" applied to the rest of the world) who are finding things work counter to their expectations.

Did you not read the very first line? "...capitalism has become so broken that it's going to either be abandoned or left to continue as it is."

It is not, as you imply that he says capitalism is failing America, it is that the broken state of capitalism, essentially that capitalism does not exist is failing America.

It must just be a misunderstanding on your part that you think his donation history does not very well aligns with what he is saying. The Republican party, in spite of also being heavily influenced by the elite who will naturally try to consolidate power, have always been about actual free, fair capitalism and free markets within the jurisdiction and for its citizens. There is absolutely nothing inconsistent with him saying that the corruption of capitalism is what is failing the USA, because it is, just as it is failing everyone else on the whole planet. Even China, the totalitarian evil communist regime is highly dependent on the USA even with its corrupt and rotten form of capitalism that has dominated the US economy since starting in the 60s ... as most corruption and depravity and degeneracy started around that time.

This is a bit like the "Islam is a religion of peace" discourse. I'm sure it is, but:

OOP as actually implemented and found in the wild isn't about Smalltalk or message passing. It's about transforming functions into methods by unnecessarily wrapping behaviour in classes, as an example of cargo-cult programming.

PowerPoint is a pretty poor example. A blind person may not be able to build a PowerPoint template, but I think they should be able to build a PowerPoint presentation using a supplied template.
I don’t know, I think Jason knows a lot more about this stuff than we do.

The supply/demand thing, I wish he omitted because it lets people look at things way too reductionist.

It’s actually very difficult to look at a salary and have that tell you something about supply and demand for a job. It’s obviously not that simple. In particular, it would be impossible to look at that figure and try to make heads or tails of what the “supply and demand” for executives is, because they’re paid so much radically differently. And yet accelerators churn out CEOs every day! You’d point out that I’m asking the wrong question, “it’s not about supply and demand when it comes to executive pay.” I agree, and I don’t think it’s about supply and demand for game developer pay either.

From a strictly economic point of view, the bonus system is very distorting. You get paid a huge bonus if your game gets a lot of units sold after your crunch time. However, since the publishers own the studios now, that doesn’t happen as much, and the bonuses go to the “shareholder” (ie the CEO and other highly stock compensated executives). Seems like exactly the sort of thing a union could negotiate!

But making the low line developer sound like the antagonist? “People to stop taking on terrible jobs because of some sense of ‘passion.’” Like I know you didn’t mean to sound like the bad guy, but is your line of argument really to ignore how economic structures in the industry underpay people, and instead it’s the underpaid people’s fault for being passionate?
The republican issue is the post-LBJ realignment of racists and western resource owners with the old-school "chamber of commerce" mainstream GOP.

I think the other dimension here is the number of people who equate passion with qualification. They enter the industry thinking that a lifetime of playing video games qualifies them, whereas you actually end up needing strong software engineering skills, often with an emphasis in graphics and other math-heavy niches, a strong work ethic and many other qualities. Passion helps. Years of being a customer helps. Doesn't replace other qualifications, though. I've seen more than a few friends on the losing end of some miserable attempts to create their own video game company (or graphic design business, photography business, etc.) because they equated interest with immediate ability.

It's still newsworthy regardless:

I live in Toronto, where we have Winter season and Construction season. It's everywhere in the city and a noisy construction might just pop up anywhere, poor neighborhood or not.

Dealing with construction noise is relevant to anyone in Toronto regardless of wealth.

If the rich had any other way of dealing with it, I would like to see it in evidence. If the rich have as much recourse as the rest of us, I would like to see it in evidence. The article is relevant regardless of the people depicted being rich.

They're humans like the rest of us and I think it's unfair to write them off without a second thought.

Because without putting a name to it, you don't have the same level of organization. If you have a group of workers who organize collectively but don't have a real organization with a leadership structure, how do you vote and decide what your goals are?

Everyone is using compile-to-JS technologies now, even JS programmers are doing it because they want to target legacy JS runtimes without new language features. And the minimization etc side benefits have becoim so relied on, that this toolchain is here to stay. It's a good thing because then a level playing field is enjoyed by a broad range of languages, like Elm, TypeScript and ClojureScript.
Sure, that's nice. (Although it seems to have been heading somewhat lower for the past decade.) But if you'd started investing in 1998, say, and then in 2008 something happened such that you unexpectedly needed access to your 10 years' worth of accumulated resources, things wouldn't have looked so rosy.

Overall, the long-term trend may be pretty reliably positive. But that's little comfort to an individual who may not have the luxury of waiting out a poorly-timed, lengthy downturn.
I'm not doubting your point, but at the same time I struggle to name an example that did the "then jack up prices when you are the only show in town" step.

I guess a prayer at the demonic altar of Soros could get your startup funded. It can't hurt, can it.

Soros along with all the tech tyrants that have been emerging from hades itself are all disassembling and deconstructing the whole basis of the civilized world and the most core concepts of self-governance, freedom of speech, freedom from tyranny, and the most fundamental and core, basic concepts and necessities for any form of democracy, let alone the middle class; yet you laud Soros?

But I guess as long as you see yourself benefitting from the plunder and pillaging, you will support such depravity and degeneracy.
I call this the "sales mindset" vs the "accounting mindset". In my opinion, once you see the accounting mindset take hold of the leadership of a company, it's prospects are dead. It's not growing any more. Granted, a company can make a ton of money during its slow decline.

There are, of course, industries that are different (Walmart seems to make way more via cost savings than by sales incentives, for example).
Algebraic types without being able to conveniently destructure them is maybe half the benefit at best.
Let x equal your income for a calendar year, divided by the median income for your locale during the previous year.

If x < 1, your fair share is 0. If x < 50, your fair share is your income times ln(x)/ln(2500). Otherwise, your fair share is your income times (1 - ln(50)/(2 * ln(x))).

The success of your enterprise is highly dependent on the cooperation of many people who will never be directly rewarded by you for their role. You won't even know their names. Sometimes people forget that their success is only possible if a civilization exists, and it upholds societies that are functional for everyone in them.
The other practical solution is basic income.

In a basic income society people can do (if they want) the jobs they have a passion for without poor conditions.

And people who will want a higher income will do the jobs that a few people can do (highly skilled jobs..), or wants to do (picking up garbage, cleaning toilets...). These jobs will probably have much better conditions than now.
I would object that your experience is actually a good example how to choose a larger scale solution. Start with some RDBMS, and switch once it stops working.

I think that's the better way of saying "just use a RDBMS" - "If you're not sure, use an RDBMS to delay a decision until you have more experience and knowledge".
Yeah, basically "we made this run fast on Chrome".
> There is no other reason you could have made that accusation otherwise.

I made no accusation. I inferred a straightforward conclusion from one of your unqualified claims about the dangers of importing intolerance into a tolerant milieu.

* White supremacy sometimes argues for violence and is intolerant of some types of people, so you don't want to accept white supremacists in your tolerant society.

* By formal analogy, Islam sometimes argues for violence and is intolerant of some types of people, so you also shouldn't want Muslims in your tolerant society.

The argument is the same, but you've asserted a different conclusion in each case. This is a special pleading fallacy. I've explained this twice now, so I really can't be more clear.

> And white supremacists want an end to anyone who isn't white

Not true, and it shows that you don't really know anything about the white supremacist movement, just like many people who hate Muslims don't know really know anything about Islam.

See also photography, writing, art, etc. Some professionals are in fact resentful to greater or lesser degrees of amateurs willing to work for free (either just for fun or because it's useful to them professionally for reputational or other reasons).

I asked a journalist I knew whether he minded the fact that people like myself publish articles/blogs for free in publications that also have paid staff/freelancers. His response was basically "That ship sailed long ago." But there are definitely people who feel more strongly that people having "fun" are taking food off their family's plate.

I work for healthcare and you are right, this article is bullshit. 90% of time we work on data that comes from expensive medical simulators.

Devs dont have access to production medical data, regulators would kill us otherwise

My argument would be that you might as well enjoy the money that you earned. You can't take it with you when you die, so make the most of it here.

Not saying you shouldn't save money, but if the 5$ cup makes you happy, just go for it.

Edit: typos!
To give this conversation a more concrete example, here is (linked below) a calculation of saving $5 a day over 40 years, in real (inflation adjusted) dollars, assuming returns on invested assets are 7% per year. This is a realistic number based on >100 years of U.S. real (inflation adjusted) stock performance. You end up with $377k after 40 years.

In my opinion, a lot of Americans and people around the first world live paycheck-to-paycheck because they adjust their consumption to match their income. There are people that live paycheck-to-paycheck at all levels of the income distribution. The power of saving adds up more than people think. The author of the article may very well be rich and successful because his $5 daily coffee frees up his mental bandwidth enough to concentrate on his billion-dollar daily problems. However, many poorer folks need to learn self-control and the power of saving. His advice is not actionable.

To use the featured quote against him:
>If spending $5 a day on fancy coffee puts your retirement at risk, you’ve got bigger problems.

Yes. The bigger problem is that many grown adults are financially ignorant. Spending $5/day on a pure luxury despite being flat broke is a symptom of this ignorance, but analysis of this symptom can lead to self-reflection and better behavior.

> "I'm donating money to you, fiscally conservative senator Cotton, because I disagree with your policy and think you should adopt a more progressive policy, even though it's against the fundamental tenants of your party. Despite the fact that your fiscally conservative policy greatly benefits me financially, I hope you change your position and adopt a more progressive policy, even if it hurts me financially."

Precisely! It's similar to how Hillary Clinton's biggest donor was Goldman Sachs. They don't agree ideologically, but that's why it's important to donate and build favor in order to sway their views.

> If this were truly his state of mind, why not back a progressive instead, that he knows is going support these reforms? This makes no sense to me.

It's a good question! Imagine you align with the Democrats, and you have a lot of money to put behind your vote. When you look at the voting districts of America, you can see three types of races:

Democrat-ensured, Close, Republican-ensured

Democrat-ensured: Now if you want to maximize the impact of your money, there's no point in donating to Democrat-ensured races. Geoff Diehl had no way of beating Elizabeth Warren, for example, and we could argue that giving Warren a large war chest won't be that impactful for her Senate race.

Close: In these districts, you should clearly back the Democrat, and offer financial support. It will have an impact, and possibly contribute to a win.

Republican-ensured: In these districts, where people overwhelmingly vote Republican, you're not going to get anywhere by backing a Democrat who shares all of your views. It would be a waste. Politicians are always looking to fundraise, however, and are willing to budge on one or two issues for enough funding.

In a world where Republican-ensured is a large percentage of districts, and Democrats need votes from across the aisle to get something passed, you _need_ cooperation, and a Democrat donating to a Republican is often where it can come from.
Corporations can't win big if they aren't exploiting some workforce somewhere. Whether it's keeping their skilled employees quiet on the shady business and anti-consumer practices through the veiled threat of job stability and thus their lifestyle, or the ones on the other side of the globe slaving away constantly to meet demands of their products or raw materials at the prices they dictate and not by the labour put into making the product.
>The author is a billionaire who is is proposing for the wealthy to be taxed more, how is he insulated by paying more taxes?

Maybe it’s in his proposal but I didn’t see any mention of bringing back the estate (death) tax on the rich or increasing capital gains.
1) yes, they believe that in part because it's an ego boost, but 2) there are values, behaviors, attitudes, patterns of speech, and so on, that are socialized in at an early age and damn hard to consistently, convincingly fake later in life, made even harder because lots of them do rely on having had money available, if only to gain access to the places and activities where the socialization takes place. Prep school, "Summering" the right places, clubs, and so on.

It doesn't so much matter that their attitudes and behaviors are strictly better, but that conforming to them and knowing about the things they know and being able to relate to them that way lets you network on a level those "under" them cannot, reinforcing the class hierarchy. You may be able to get a country club sponsorship on the power of your income, but someone else might swing it by being able to talk sailing or swapping prep school stories with their boss—and oh hey you play squash my brother needs a partner, you're not a member there well we'll have to fix that, you know there's a position open with one of our funds upstairs that I think you'd suit just fine, let me make a call or two...
