We recently started using a lot of auto-formatters across our Python/iOS/Android code, as the team has grown (there are 17 people touching code at the company now).

I like auto-formatting, because it makes PRs less stressful to commit, and makes review comments more focused on stuff that actually matters. How exactly the code gets formatted is not something I care much about, just that it happens consistently, and I don't have to think about it.

We use pre-commit with Black and other formatters, such that it formats the code, warns you stuff changed, prevents the commit, and makes you recommit with the formatting patch included.

The solution is to either 1) patch it and rename your fork completely, or 2) ship upstream unmodified and use the same contribution process as everyone else to get patches in.

That is how everyone else does it. Only distributions are somehow exempt from fork etiquette. Hold yourself to the same standards as everyone else, and the problem goes away.

From a practical perspective, I'm not sure that spending 20 hours+ working on something for free is any more/less likely to make you less productive at work than doing it for pay, but I see where the letter of the law comes in.
Roadmaps for Developers
Every email I send from Hubspot has these.
There are substantial protections against unlawful search and seizure in the US constitution which are also supported by subsequent legal precedent/case law, often specifically referencing private property, dwellings, persons, etc. An arrest warrent does not necessarily allow police to go barging in to private dwellings to enforce it. Persons in vehicles were generally not explicitly referenced in the law and a slow encroachmemt on executive power has led to 100+ years of case law that eroded those protections when it comes to persons in vehicles, especially on public roadways. This has led to vehicles in public being a place where police have a lot of legal leeway and a common place for police to enforce warrants, etc. for minor violations and a common place for police to fish for possible crimes with less risk of explicitly violating a persons rights (at least in the eyes of the judiciary).

> This line of argumentation falls flat to me because the kids that are better educated by their parents will undoubtedly have better lifelong outcomes, regardless of what college it enables them to get into.

Sure that may be true in relative terms. But at the margin, decreased reward -> decreased investment.

> There's a lot more to success in life than what college you go to. Going to Harvard is pretty worthless if you haven't even been set up with the skills to be able to graduate, for instance -- which the kid with highly invested parents is more likely to have.

That sounds like something that could be true, it just isn't. A Harvard degree is mostly about signaling. Once you are accepted to Harvard, you're nearly guaranteed to graduate (the graduation rate is 97.5%). Once you've gotten in, you're set. A huge number of jobs care more about marketing their ivy league staff than the actual skill output of that staff. You can do extremely well with zero talent and a Harvard degree. Obviously having both is better, but the Harvard degree itself confers tremendous value on anyone who has it, even if that person has no real skills or intelligence.

I have a small (2k+ stars) niche game-related project. The hardest part for me is saying "no". If someone proposes a change that I think is out of scope, or is not something I want to maintain (maybe the introduced complexity is greater than the benefit of the feature) I find it difficult to explain that in a way people understand. Often times people get offended by it and then become angry at me, and over time it becomes very draining.
I'm not a python person (for many years, at least), but I'd choose black for a completely different reason. By using Black, I'm choosing standardization over my whims.

Which, as a longtime Go dev and now Rust dev, I love formatters that are opinionated. I don't always love what Gofmt or Rustfmt do, but I definitely like consistency that the community has in code style.

So I don't care what Black thinks - I care what, hopefully, everyone uses. Though, I could see a situation where formatting can be altered and the project has a format config. Meaning that while code fmt differs between projects, it would be consistent among all devs working on X projects.

Yeah, in movies. I hear that Boy Scouts actually adhere to that rule.

I've only ever seen these two rules applied in a pretty top-down fashion as tight-knit community rules. It's not something I've seen random people invoking in generic situations, so I'm not sure if it scales to the level of a city or a country.

> A therapist can induce infinite demand on a patient, by just doing follow-up sessions ad-infinitum. In argentina for example, people go to the same therapist for decades!!

You know people who take insulin are on it for the rest of their lives, but that doesn't make it the fault of their doctors.

Therapy actually works. "Hundreds of studies have found that psychotherapy is an effective way to help people make positive changes in their lives," Nordal says. "Compared with medication, psychotherapy has fewer side effects and lower instances of relapse when discontinued." [1]

> The second part is that as a patient, if the insurance covers your cost, you might as well go to the most expensive therapist you can find, and consume the infinitely. Also, you know more than the insurance company if you plan on using or needing this care, thus you have a very strong adverse-selection situation going on with any plan that is generous on mental health.

This is a very strange American perspective on health care. If it was suddenly available to everyone, there's a perception that we'd all be like kids in the candy store getting 1 of everything at the doctors office. That's just not how it works. Nobody in Canada goes to their GP and asks for the immunotherapy and a few casts. People go to doctors because they're sick, and they need treatment and would rather be literally anywhere else.

It's not as though we're socializing the electronics section at Best Buy.

> Economically speaking, mental health should not be part of an insurance scheme. It should be cash pay. To help people that could not afford mental health and they need it, you would do better to provide state-run service, that is low-cost high-effective-value and cover the lower side of the population.

Sold, but it should cover everyone.

I initially used autopep8 and had set vscode to autoformat region on paste. When I changed to black I started getting error messages about region format not supported everytime I pasted.

As I mainly use other languages, with formatters with working region support, I went back to autopep8 so I could leave it format region enabled.
A year ago I stopped going to Whole Foods and started buying packaged foods at Trader Joe’s and produce at Berkeley Bowl. My food spending halved.

Trader Joe’s, Aldi, Lidl, and to a lesser-extent Costco, are revolutionizing the grocery business in much the same that Walmart and the A&P did. Except they sell high-quality store brands and offer fewer, better choices to customers with less in-store cruft.

Americans spend a smaller proportion of their income on food now than they did a generation ago; roughly 10% now compared to 17.5% in 1960 [0]. It’s exciting to imagine that average falling to 5%.

And it’s even more exciting to imagine other consumer spending categories falling relative to income, e.g., transportation and housing.

My wife has the SM and I have the ML. Mine is slightly taller overall, but unless you set them side-by-side and have them packed full, you'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference. In theory, if mine is fully packed, it might not fit in a smaller overhead, but I've never actually had that happen - even full, they have enough "give" to jam into the bin.

Also, as mentioned elsewhere, the backpack is much more likely to be allowed onto a flight that is doing the "mandatory" gate check thing that is common on smaller regional jets/turbo-props.

Edit - FWIW, my last trip to Scotland, I had 2x shoes (running, hiking), clothing for 4 full days, 1x running clothes, a Patagonia Nanapuff jacket, baseball cap, belt, rain coat and rain pants, and toiletries. All fit with ease. In the second pack (an REI UL pack), I had 2x camera bodies, 3x lenses, iPad Mini, chargers/cables and spare batteries for all, binoculars, sunglasses, headphones, and passports/travel documents. Not sure I could have crammed it all into the Osprey - probably if I cut back to a single camera/lens and went to 3 days clothes (doing laundry either way, so 4 was overkill).

This is indeed one of the possible theories to explain the Fulton gap, as far as I understand it.

>All the horrible things you describe about government run healthcare is the situation literally today.

Arguably because of regulatory capture, market collusion, and lack of transparency. There's no way to prove that the system will necessarily be better under single payer, but at least under a loosely regulated free market system with transparency and antitrust regulation, competition can to some degree keep corruption in check. Contrast that with single payer which centralizes power under an already corrupt American bureocracy and is bound to legistion, which is painfully slow to change in comparison to corporations which respond to market forces.

I think you're conflating two concepts a little bit - deviation from `gofmt` isn't a compiler error, but lots of things (like unused variables or imports) are. I think they're both great.
We should aim at browsing the Internet by date. We're moving everything there ignoring the fact that as it is there is no built-in permanence. We're accustomed to that after Gutenberg: it wasn't that easy losing every copy of an important document. Now it is, things disappear and we're getting into a drifting cultural bubble impossible to trace back.

The Internet Archive is doing God's work, but it's not enough. If you don't have the URL of a site that is gone, you probably won't find any reference to it after every online hyperlink to it has disappeared as well. It might become then inaccessible after a while, stored yet gone anyway.
I'm OK with it because otherwise you are whitewashing history.

For example I have recordings of the Colbert report going back to ~2005. Some of his skits released during that time would be classified as "hate speech" in 2019. Of course he, and mainstream broadcasting companies would love it if you didn't think about that. There are plenty of news clips and interviews where mainstream politicians (on Left AND Right) casually dismiss gay marriage. Powerful tech influencers like Mark Zuckerberg would love it if his IMs would disappear from the Internet. The examples go on and on.
So I have been putting together a way for people to more easily make their own blogging platform. It would kind of mimic a social media platform, but since everything is committed to a repository using the JAMstack it could easily be converted to a full website.

Everything is owned by the end user. This is only providing a recipe for people to use.

I will also mention that https://www.stackbit.com/ is doing basically the same thing but more from a “Make life easier for Website designers” perspective.
My point is this: parents have limited resources. They can devote those resources to things like: nice cars, fancy meals, vacations...or, they can devote them to educating their kids. Asian families notoriously prize devoting every last resource they can to educating their kids. That is a really great thing for society.

However, the adversity score policy being proposed here would blunt the impact of that resource allocation. When you blunt the return to an investment, you get less of that investment. If those same Asian families cannot improve their kids chances by making those sacrifices, then they have no reason to make those sacrifices.

LOL. This. This discussion here is surreal to me.

Ways to enjoy music: stream it on Spotify or insert a CD. Pick one.

?????

I mean, DRMless, local media doesn't obviate streaming which has its own valuable niche, from discovery to the fact that my 200 GB music library cannot fit on my phone, but that library is on Dropbox.

In 30 years, the format might be unrecognizable, but... I don't get the problem either.

>But for a local iTunes library you need IT admin skills to manage it, to back it up, to transfer it from one machine to the next, perhaps to understand that you can access the music without iTunes, etc. The vast majority of the public don't know how to do that.

Oh, we're operating from an assumption of pre-Internet tech literacy. Then, yeah, I don't know. The computer-as-radio/physical-media dichotomy might be the way to go. Enjoy those CDs. uwu Put thing in thing and hear sound. Zug zug

My sense is that configurable autoformatters are doomed to suck.

Because an autoformatter with 10 simple yes/no options has 1024 different ways those options can interact, and an autoformatter with 20 yes/no options has 1,048,576 different ways that they can interact. It's simply not possible to make sure that you're going to get reliably good results in the face of that kind of combinatorial explosion.

Versus, if there's only one way that it will format things, then the people designing the rules have a single stationary target that they can aim at.

I was surprised at how intense LEDs are. When I got my eclipse viewing glasses [1] for viewing the 2017-08-21 eclipse I spent some time trying them out on every seemingly bright light source around my house and my office.

The only things that were easily visible through the eclipse glasses were a 3500 lumen 200 watt halogen bulb, and the white LEDs from an iPhone 6 plus flashlight app, a hand cranked emergency flashlight, and an LED head lamp.

I worked with a company called Tatango awhile back. Usually they are marketing companies that use a downstream provider.

There’s a few providers, I recall that AT&T and Verizon OEMd one. Iirc, most people use a broker type service that manages the relationships between the 20 or so carriers/MVNOs. There are pretty strict rules if you roll your own, and the costs were pretty high.

There are also many legal concerns. When you outsource a job to, say, India, you are also paying to have that work either stolen from or should expect it to be stolen and given to, your competitors. There is no protection of intellectual property there. Even if the authorities in India became amenable to foreign entities penalizing Indian businesses for playing fast and loose with intellectual property, it would be astronomically expensive to hire a skilled international lawyer to deal with the case.

> treating deviation as compiler errors.

That's not the case at all. The Go compiler treats an arbitrary few lint issues as compiler errors (e.g. unused imports), code which is not gofmt-formatted isn't a compiler error.
The longbox was the original standardized packaging format for CDs, but since the longbox itself was disposable -- the actual CD was stored in a plastic "jewel case" inside, you were supposed to keep the plastic case and throw away the longbox -- there was an outcry against them as wasteful packaging. (See for instance this article, from 1990: https://ew.com/article/1990/04/20/whats-cd-longbox/)

The recording industry loved the longbox, because it supposedly made CDs harder to shoplift. But for an industry that generally likes to consider itself progressive, being the target of protests by environmentalists was a bad look. So by the early '90s they'd given up on the longbox, dropping it completely and just shipping the CD in the plastic "jewel case" by itself.

Of course, the story itself kinda speaks against this view of the world.

Yet these crimes are so rare as to be huge deals when they do occur, and politicians here generally rather take their chances than lead a life protected from their very constituents. In a high-trust society it is also expected from politicians.

I used to be thrown off by the fights he picked but then I had a thought. The fact that's it's considered rude to criticize people with influence means it's difficult to gauge their performance. If anything public figures should be harshly criticized because they make tons of money when things go well and don't seem to be taking on any risk from their bad decisions.
That's the business though. Kill, maim, and let people suffer to make more money. That's the core of every single health insurance company with every single patient for every single problem. To claim otherwise is lunacy. So why don't we have nationalized, single-payer health care? People are still claiming that they don't think the government can do a good job despite the existence of Medicare and Medicaid. People are worried about government "death squads" when private insurance "death squads" have been killing people for decades. Frankly it's fucking ridiculous at this time. Can one even call the US a "developed" country anymore with this kind of healthcare? Certainly not in my mind.
It's something we're losing as Europe becomes less homogeneous, and it's certainly a shame as you say.
