It’s not really hyperbole when they’re actually going to be facing a massive content drought in the near future and won’t be able to justify price increases while offering less. There was a quote from the Wall Street Journal even saying “the three companies launching new streaming services have created TV shows and movies that make up nearly 40 percent of the viewing minutes on Netflix.“ Netflix may seem to put out content frequently, but it’s 100 miles long and two inches deep.

Well that's one reason why I said I'm not sure how many of/how much these items can be reused. For something like a wooden table/chair, and a TV/monitor/etc., sure, it might get reuse. But for a sofa or mattress? I don't know about you, but unlike with a desk or chair, I wouldn't just buy any random 2-year-old sofa or mattress a stranger throws out... whereas I'd keep using the ones I've had for the past couple years in a heartbeat.

The other reason is, if everyone just "updates" stuff for no other reason than "because they want to", then that's obviously going to tend to cycle through products more rapidly than if people didn't just "update" on a whim, even if the second-hand-ness wasn't an issue.
Do you want to be a bit more explicit, because I cant really work out what you're referring to.
I suspect that the high household debt has to do with the fact that those countries all have a high number of home owners that have a loan out for their house.

In Belgium for example all houses bought/built are financed via a loan, which in turn is promoted by the government in the form of a tax deduction. Not getting a loan for a house (even when you have the money available) is simple a bad choice here.

At a concrete use case level, it's a language where you can write Java- or C#-like code with no "magic": no reflection, no AOP, none of the stuff that tends to be the biggest cause of bugs in real-world Java/C# codebases. All of the stuff that you would need reflection or AOP (or metaclasses or macros, in other languages) for, you can do in plain old Scala code.

In the abstract, it's the only mainstream language to offer both higher-kinded types and traditional OO ("extends") inheritance. From one side it offers all the good stuff of OCaml, F#, Swift, Kotlin, or Rust, but with a better type system that makes handling secondary concerns via "context-like" types a breeze. From the other side, it offers similar power to Haskell, but with more understandable performance, a better library/tool ecosystem (IDE, profiler and so on), less reliance on memory-unsafe code in practice (a lot of things in Haskell require C-wrapping libraries for things like image formats, whereas the corresponding cases in Scala wrap Java instead), and the ability to use traditional OO style if you want.

tl;dr we are entering an election cycle and many articles appearing in the main stream press are nothing more than trial balloons for campaigns fishing to see what sells. If you find issues with subjects you are familiar with then you should assume subjects you are not well versed in have the same issues.

You should apply that same process to any article they publish even on statements you agree with but don't actually have full knowledge of. It is not they cannot afford editors it is that they are politically aligned and floating trial balloons for ideas spouted by favored candidates. We will have a flood of stories submitted that if you look under the covers are no more than talking points you can walk right back to a candidate.

Expect the upcoming year to be full of stories directed to make you think the whole process is unfair, how you have no voice, how your rights are being eroded, how someone or some company has wealth they don't deserve, but if you just hand it all over to the politicians they will fix it.

All they will do is secure their people into money making positions and sell you a bill of goods under a law with a nice sounding name that does very little of what it implies and a whole lot more under the covers you never would have wanted.
Really liking this release. It trims off some confusing and redundant features while making substantial improvements in scala's bread and butter blocks - collections and futures. Type system changes are neat as well

Most of my background is in Python, but I've dabbled in a lot of languages out there from Haskell, lisp, Perl...etc. The point being I don't mind trying new things. I don't know Java and the JVM very well though and a lot of hosted languages like Scala, Clojure, Kotlin...etc seem to assume that you're intimately familiar with it which is a pain. Also, the Scala tooling when I last checked ~2 years ago was complex. I just wanted to write a simple app and started drowning in the complexity of SBT and gave up pretty quick. Your mileage may vary, especially if you're already familiar with the Java ecosystem. I've had more success with F# and OCaml.

Note that I'm not saying Scala is bad, it just wasn't an easy enough transition for me to justify climbing the plateau. Clojure ended up being a similar situation. These languages are also optimized around writing large software projects and that was a hindrance rather than a benefit to someone that does more scripting than anything.

Maven itself works fine. In nine years of Scala I've never understood what problem SBT is supposed to solve - it seems very complicated to no real benefit.

No.

But I probably should have been more clear. I mean, first of all, there are more cities than Copenhagen. I have a 3 room 92m^2 apartment that is 15 minute walking distance from Aarhus H that cost us 2.2 million. Secondly, I’d personally call a place like Valby “downtown” Copenhagen even though it would probably be more correct to label it surburbia like you do.
I think you misunderstood the point of my comment. I wasn't criticizing your approach or debating buying first- vs. second-hand. That's not what the discussion was about at all. The question was about renting and "updating" every couple years "because you want to" vs. actually owning your stuff, and how much additional waste that generates. I was pointing out that even if people like you exist who buy second-hand, they (naturally) won't necessarily be interested in doing that for most items, so that still results in a ton of waste instead of increasing re-use as someone else claimed. That's what this discussion was about.
There's also option four: raise salaries. Historically, that's what companies have done when the labour market is tight.

Though obviously somebody must have crunched the numbers and decided these WeWork things are a cheaper bet.
huge radiohead fan here. I also think they have undergone a massive transformation in style. as a fan it's challenging, but rewarding to follow them. As you described your struggle with their constant changing I'm currently struggling with their latest album. I'll probably end up listening to it every day in a year or 2. It kind of "grows on you", doesn't it? Like a pair of shoes that don't fit yet and after a time they are your favorite pair.

When AMP was introduced I assumed the actual content would be loaded from the canonical URL anyway. This whole in-between caching layer G introduced is very weird.

You're not wrong, but purely from a practical standpoint, your data is out there and without a service like this to hold these companies to account, they could cover things up/downplay the situation/be too incompetent to know they've leaked data.

An operation like this levels the playing field and lets us collectively hold companies to their responsibilities.
Am I reading the second one correctly as patenting twerking as a means of driving the bike?

>... makes reducing my personal consumption seem a bit pointless

Although I try to not to be wasteful also I get this feeling a lot that in climate change matters the actions that individuals can set are far outweighed by consistently applied systemic changes. Makes it kind of frustrating to try to save the earth :)
So frustrated people give up, but tireless bots will get through? That sounds like the exact opposite it's supposed to accomplish.
I have thought about this lately because my wife and I moved to Illinois so I could accept a job managing a machine learning team. I retired and now we are just now moving back to Arizona. I spent five hours yesterday watching our stuff being wrapped and put on a truck. Lots of possessions.

The thing is, I have some stuff that I really like. A teak bookcase I bought in the 1970s when I got my first real job after finishing school. A huge teak desk my wife bought me 20 years ago. My wife has some furniture her grandmother had and that she grew up with. We also have art and things we have bought while traveling around the world.

I see the advantages of not being encumbered by ‘stuff’ but some possessions help define our personal history and are simply a pleasure to own.
actually all graphs are using projects that compile in under a minute. even the scala compiler is relativly small compared to average size scala projects.

But wasn't it like this some years ago? I think I sold so much stuff I didn't need anymore on eBay and sometimes made good money from it. Nowadays eBay is not very user-friendly for private people and therefore unusable for this.

"eBay Kleinanzeigen" (not sure if this exists outside of Germany) is there, but it's lacking the auction features which made selling stuff so much fun...

I think there's a sensible middle ground.

Using types for side effects (eg Slick does it for DB IO) and error handling (see also Rust's Result type) is great.

Scala's for-comprehension (which is Haskell's "do" notation) is a bit awkward (you have to understand that it's a syntactic sugar, and you have to learn about monad transformers, because you have to align the types, so if you started with an Option you have to return an Option, so you have to wrap your Futures and Lists, but it's pretty automatic).

There are a few things that seems harder if you are used to less pure languages, let's say you can't just manage a request context "somewhere" and rely on the dark arts of whatever Java (or Python's Flask) frameworks do. You have to pass around a context. Use implicits. For async Scala already wants you to pass around the execution context. And that's a good thing. Less black magic is always nice in the long term.

Going full FP can be ... painful. When all you see is functions, functions getting passed function, that return functions, that can be called with other functions that ...

Yes, sure, in the end the data is passed/transformed/filtered/mapped/reduced the same, but usually reading FP code is a lot less straightforward than it should be. (For example nice chained functions / data-pipelines are great, easy to read, etc. But going overboard with currying and function passing is not.)
Capitalism can't work without consumers, and consumerism can't work unless you can convince consumers they're better off as a cog in a machine. What capitalism degrades into when this doesn't happen isn't communism but rather mercantilism, or, if there isn't enough economic activity for even that, feudalism. And no one wants that.

I didn't realize how this could work until I looked at my own life and realized I would rather be an IC than a manager.

I still want to own my own means of production and earn economic freedom, but on my own terms. If I can't get it on my own terms, being a cog in someone else's machine isn't really all that bad.

Reframed this way, it's less a battle of haves vs have nots and more a cooperative project to make more for all. Ultimately capitalism has to find a way to incorporate the best parts of communism.

I don't think any side has won, but from what I gather Odersky thinks pragmatic functional is the way to go, i.e. only mutate when it brings substantial benefits to code clarity over a pure approach. That is, the default should always be functional, but use an imperative style where it makes sense.

Let's assume you have two levers.

One of these levers is to quadruple road capacity through new roads.

The other is to quadruple road capacity through driverless cars with perfect routing efficiency.

What do these have in common?

First: they are still massively wasteful of space. Moreso with a driverless car, which is going to be able to avoid having to find a parking spot nearby.

Second: induced demand. Double capacity, triple, quadruple, it doesn't matter. It will return to the "barely works" equilibrium in short order, except you'll have further lashed yourself to a wasteful mode of transport.

I recognise cars have unique utility and that driverless cars will enhance that utility. But for mass people movement, a train is the clear leader, followed by a bus in a dedicated lane. As the world becomes increasingly urbanised that will only grow more important.
