Almost impossible. But not impossible. This is the realm where science and innovation thrives. Yes, there's lots of failure, but that's part of it. It won't be easy, but it'll definitely be worth it.
> What if executives could only sell their shares five years after they acquired them?

This is something like what Salomon Brothers did. Results were mixed.

That said, I like the idea of spreading them out a bit. CEOs and top execs do behave a lot like how agency theory predicts, it's just that if you can come up with the perfect monitoring scheme, you don't need a CEO.

There are also swimming "treadmills". I experienced a water jet a long time ago and it was ok, but I think these are a bit more sophisticated. These could be cool, never been in one though.

Edit: Looked into them, they're pretty cool. You can option them with a mirror on the bottom to do form work, they take up far less space than a real pool and the fastest can sustain a pace of 51s/100yard which is very very quick.
Investigators - at least with the FBI, where I am familiar - don't record and are often discouraged from recording interviews. They take notes in the moment or summarize based on their memory some time after. Therefore what you said and how you meant it have gone through at least one interpretation before it makes it into any official record. And the interviewer is often not going to be the lead investigator on the case, adding another interpretation.

And that's assuming everyone is doing their best to give a complete and accurate statement+summary minimizing their own biases.

When it comes down to "knowingly and willfully" it is often a judgement call.

This is well-established legal understanding. Please read up on 302s:

When has the US gov ever moved away from the pseudo market of mega firms anointed to succeed like Boeing in the last few decades?

After the financial crisis the regulations added only further excluded small firms from the banking market because they had ridiculous rules meant for mega banks applied to all banks. So why wouldn’t all the small banks just sell their firms to the big ones?

“Too small to exist” is the reality, not simply “too big to fail” (aka too well connected to fail). Now we only have 5 mega banks further entrenched. Aircraft manufacturer market is even more limited (the incident with Canada’s Bombardier vs US Boeing showed everything you need to know about that ‘private’ market).

I’m not sure what fantasy world people live in when they talk about deregulation of these markets as a common phenomenon, especially airlines, finance, health care, telephony etc (all of the worst industries for consumers in the US, which I should note has nothing to do with the value of public gov run markets which these are not). Absolutely none of those have less administrative oversight than a few decades ago. I guess they listen to politicians instead of any indicators from the market place or history.

If the ‘deregulations’ all further entrench the massive companies, while leaving all of the barriers to entry for the small firms. What outcome did you expect? More competition between the 3-4 mega companies that remain? Is that how we were supposed to benefit from competition?

The MANY entrepreneurs with broke immigrant parents (me included) would probably disagree.

It doesn't hurt to come from money, and get a small loan of a million dollars, sure. But more important than that luck is being resilient and having stoic ideals, and that's something most Americans including the author of this article lack nowadays. It's very easy to constantly put yourself in a victim position and complain about how your life is harder than that of others, but that's mostly just self destructive as it wastes intellectual and mental energy you could instead spend on something more productive.

> Requiring ID allows us to measure when fraud is occuring by individuals attempting to submit votes and data that is not theirs.

No, it doesn't; it is neither necessary (as such fraud can be detected by other means) nor sufficient (as even with an ID requirement fraud can be performed without detection) for that purpose.
The program doesn't even guarantee that, the Dutch article has a sentence like "With Hack_Right, other punishments, such as imprisonment, are not excluded." There's a chance Google Translate got the sentence wrong but I doubt it.
I've also witnessed the opposite problem:
a government office roughly equivalent to the DMV (motorizzazione civile) registering a driving license with a codice fiscale provided by person without checking that it was actually issued by the government.

15 yeas later, another person in a different city, miles away, argued loudly, while trying to file the request to convert a foreign driving license, that she 100% sure she didn't already have a driving license in Italy.

(Source: I was waiting in line for my turn and heard every word, increasingly feeling a Kafkaesque grip in my stomach and hoping to never get on the wrong side of Italian burocracy. fwiw, they didn't solve the issue during that session)

This seems extremely anecdotal and biased against newcomers to mindfulness. Basically it doesn't sit right with the author and doesn't sit right with some Buddhists. That's not a great argument against it.
Well it doesn’t spiral out of control. It’ll reach an equilibrium where the grocer prices their goods to make an optimal profit given the rate of theft (which you’ve aptly pointed out increases with the price they choose).
Kindle Unlimited has other problems that make issues for content quality, king among them being the KDP Select requirement.

I’ve managed to find value from Kindle Unlimited, but pretty much nobody but self published authors (which I have no problem with, but there’s effectively zero bar to entry meaning quality is over the place) is available on the service because of the KDP Select issue. It doesn’t seem to be evenly enforced either, since the Harry Potter books are available via Kindle Unlimited yet are available for sale on other eBook stores, for example.
> The article basically says that an admission of guilt is required.

So it does. I'm not sure where they're getting that, maybe from the requirement to apologize to one's victims that's part of https://www.halt.nl/en/halt-programme/ ?

> And what is "the perpetrators have done something very serious"?

In the case they mention, it was infiltrating an ISP's network:

Jansen gives an example of a boy who hacked a large internet service provider. To watch free videos, he tried out how far he could penetrate the system. Due to an update error, he had access to the company's routers. As a result, he was able to lay down eighty percent of all internet and telephone traffic in the Netherlands. He chose not to do anything with this information, but boasted about his findings online.
Perhaps foolishly optimistic, but maybe they can turn things around. They abused a lot of people's trust, but it isn't impossible to imagine they could win it back.
I meant just as in exclusively for this. And what is the point of tracking them if we don't plan to do anything about them?
This is a belief just like God making man and animals on separate days.

We have DNA and (partly) heritable traits just like tomatos and wheat. The only reason modification (eg CRISPR) was done later in humans vs other organisms was due to ethical not technical reasons.

We have easily obtained metrics that work as a proxy for intelligence like IQ, educational attainment, elite professional success, number of patents, publications etc.

As for having many genes being responsible for a trait, Fisher showed in 1918 you can perform selection even if there were an infinite number of loci involved, see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinitesimal_model

Ok, I guess I still haven't seen any clear details on this so can you please answer the questions I asked in this thread?

Why are other situations not an issue for requiring ID but voting is? How can we detect fraud by other means, and why can't these other services also do that? Does the fact that nothing is infallible mean it shouldn't be used? If you didn't vote but someone used your information, how do you catch that without some form of verification?

What’s your goal? Rebuilding an Intel class modern CPU or just making a crude one?

Transistors give you logic gates and opamps, from which you can build computation and memory, add a clock to apply input from a certain address (the PC) to a set of logic gates (the instruction set) that can read and store and you have a very crude (and very inefficient) programmable CPU in no time (compared to something even remotely like a 8080 or even a 6502)

A good approach to get more knowledgeable is going bottom-up from transistors and top-down from FPGA (and suffer Verilog/VHDL), attempting to experiment and design your own instruction set while trying to understand the physics and logic, progressively bridging the gap in between in both directions.
Boeing benefits from cutting costs. Cutting costs can lead to decreased quality. The plane crashing is a risk of decreased quality. Making anything often involves tradeoffs and the point of Boeing's maximum profit is probably not the same as the point of the maximum benefit to society.
One case is infiltrating an ISP's network, that's really rare. DDoSing your own school or messing with that infrastructure is way more common, that probably is serious enough for administration but in reality absolutely not worth putting someone in front of a judge for or threaten them with a prison sentence (the Dutch article mentions it's not out of question) but now there's a nice excuse to hand it over to the police to deal with. And I must bring up how whitehat behaviour is basically illegal as well, imagine getting a criminal record for that as a kid :/
So there is a technical solution to ad delivery that is pretty hard to impossible to block that is serve everything from the same domain. It’s very possible today and even desirable with http/2. You can configure this with cloud front and multiple origins or using service workers with cloudflare... I’d guess it’s only a matter of time before this becomes the more common way to deliver content and ads as one origin...
What happens when you lose an account now? Or if you close an account on a service that doesn't reserve usernames (e.g. Twitter)? All of a sudden someone is using "yourname" on twitter to say something the US immigration officers don't like. That's not far fetched at all
>Why would any company want to hire a bunch of people that they could not then fire at will?

Perhaps they have something they need done.
Yes, there is surely evidence that intelligence is heritable, but it's worth giving the research on this a close reading. Current approaches can only explain 10% of the variance in intelligence (https://www.nature.com/articles/nrg.2017.104), plus the effects from the environment. My main issue with the article though was the assumption that a "best" set of genes exists without futher discussion (in addition to obvious ethical concerns)
I read an article (can't find it now) that said from a previous project the Docker authors concluded they wanted a daemon so they didn't have to do things like file locks, etc. around image management.

Depending on the size of the effect, 11 participants can be very valid in an experiment. For example, assume you have 11 participants having a hormone measured after an experiment. If normal readings are 300 with a SD of 30, and at the end of the experiment their mean is 520 with a SD of 40, then you've just shown a strong, significant effect.

Yeah, Boeing have made real clowns of themselves here.

> I also can't take seriously any complaints about lack of competition in the U.S. market when it's so docile about competition law. The 1960's merger of McDonnell and Douglas is questionable, but the 1990's merger of McDonnel Douglas and Boeing directly lead to the loss of any remaining domestic competition in transport category aircraft. U.S. regulators are tacitly saying this is a natural monopoly, and yet should be regulated as if it's a competitive market.

You're discounting the competition between Boeing and Airbus. They're clearly not a monopoly.

That said, it's possible to have two sets of bad rules at once, and it's even worse in that case. Then you get antitrust regulators approving mergers while industry regulators impose high barriers to entry, so that you get high consolidation with no way to break it because no one new will ever enter the industry.

Sadly that seems to be the status quo in multiple industries now. You have antitrust approving any merger that doesn't result in a literal monopoly even if there are only two or three companies left, meanwhile those companies practically ask the government for regulations that make sure nobody else can ever come up behind them because it takes a nation-scale company to survive the compliance costs.
It'd be interesting if executives and upper management were paid in dividends for 30 years.

That way, you have a vested interest -- even after you leave the company -- to make sure it does the right thing.

I understand the historical reasoning for some of this stuff, but as long as the laws apply to everyone in a physical location, I think the only way to claim to be democratic is to let everyone in that physical location vote to influence those laws.

I live in a college town (and so am constantly surrounded by the up and coming generation) and as far as I can tell Facebook is alive and well: essentially _everyone_ uses it; they don't spend a ton of time posting on it (they do that mostly on Instagram), but everyone has an account and a ton of critical information is essentially only ever discovered or disseminated due to people using the two massive local groups (a free and for sale group, and a very awkwardly named meme sharing group) that each have tens of thousands of members. I think a key problem in these discussions is that people like to conflate "posting on timelines" with "using" Facebook, whereas most usage of Facebook is shifting to different use cases.
True, and to add one more point, poverty presently brings a along environmental factors, such as stress, toxic exposure, poor nutrition, that tragically impact brain development and leave people with an analogous intrinsic disadvantage later in life. On a positive note, I think these things are well within reach of fixing in our society and leveling the playing field.

> Were they though?

I suspect the propensity to rape is what is learned. I’d question whether the pure attraction is formed by the abuse you describe.

We should recall those a decade ago, suggesting that homosexuality was a “disorder” needing to be cured. A disorder implying that it was caused by some incident. Clearly that line of thinking is outdated and offensive to many.

Either way the source is of the attraction is moot. The fact is we live amongst pedophiles and there’s no reason they should be reviled.
>Aren't the 737 and the 757/767 completely different planes?

No. But then, given your questions thus far, we clearly don't have a common frame of reference, so I don't really know what you mean by completely different. They are not 100% different, that's for sure.

Consider this: the difference between a 737 NG and MAX is smaller than the difference between a 757 and 767. And yet the 757/767 share a single type rating. They were designed at the same time and have nearly identical cockpit layouts. And guess what, the Airbus 320 and 340 share the same type certificate as well, they're more different from each other than the 757 and 767 are to each other. But the two Airbus's also have the same cockpit layout, control systems, and software abstraction such that in normal flight they pretty much behave the same (obviously ground operations are different, they are rather substantially differently sized).

A "subtype" is just not applicable in this discussion. Any completely redesigned airplane from Boeing, in lieu of the 737 MAX, no matter its size, is going to so radically depart from any other airplane's flight characteristics and cockpit layout, that it would absolutely end up with its own type certificate. You can't design a new airplane model, and shove in the cockpit from a 737 NG. You can't and you wouldn't want to.

They dropped the ball. And the instant the Airbus 320neo was announced, Boeing was shown to have gotten caught with their pants down, and that has nothing at all to do with the regulatory paradigm.
Keep in mind that Europe has roughly double the population of the US. That means according too your source the per capita rate is half of the US.
I recommend reading comments in this thread:

"Tibet used to be a feudal serfdom with the Lamas lording over everyone else. Most Dalai Lamas were murdered by their rivals for control over the country. So yeah, of course the Lamas are upset that they're no longer in power."

"I’m of the opinion that it’s impossible to achieve economic progress with social upheaval, threats of separatism and terrorist attacks. Economic progress is incompatible with the others.

It's the extreme poverty and lack of economic opportunities which drive destabilizing forces such as these.

Prosperity by means of terrorism then separatism is the path offered by the WUC and ETIM.

Prosperity by means of forced “re-education” in vocational skills and poverty alleviation plans [1] is the one offered by the CCP.

I think it’s the CCP’s gambit that when there is economic prosperity in the region, there will be room for expanding human rights. There won’t be a need or desire to separate from a system which you are actively benefiting from and when that threat goes away, so do the armoured patrols and surveillance mechanisms.
