The difference is that you don't have to go on Ars Technica. Whereas you rarely choose to be punched in the face.

If the entry to a club was "either be punched in the face, or pay", I bet the majority of patrons would simply pay or go elsewhere. But on the internet, 99% of people either get punched or refuse both options and enter anyway.
Honestly I think it's kind of worrying that this opinion is so popular. Aren't you essentially saying that frameworks are in most cases useless, and "job security" is something you should strive after?

First of all, "job security" means that you're irreplaceable, and in the case of you actually being the architect/designer, that probably means you did a (perhaps intentionally) bad job to make yourself the linchpin. Not good.

Secondly, regardless of the first point, programming is hard. Anyone that says otherwise should be avoided like the plague. It's beyond the scope of one individual to be able to keep up to date to all the security issues and gotchas prevalent in a language or ecosystem. This is why you use frameworks. They're democratic units that within themselves handle patches and development in ways that are often better than one "irreplaceable" developer on a unique object (of course, bad developers can still use frameworks and derail the product completely to the point where all benefits of the framework are negated, but that's beside the point).

For what it's worth, there are many interesting tidbits sourced from scientific studies in this article:

"they found that organic dairy farms cause at least 30% more soil loss, and take up twice as much land, as conventional dairy farming for the same amount of milk produced, for example."

We shouldn't forget the macro-level environmental benefits of non-organic GMO factory farming.

> We simply don't have time for "Figure the engineering problem" any more.

Honest question, how do you prove this?

Here are my arguments against the motion:

1. 30 years ago we did not have internet. Now most of us have access to vast amount of technical data

2. 30 years ago stakes were not high enough. Now next generation is about to see very high impact.

3. 30 years ago most of the tech that we have now were still in research (ML, cheap computers, availability of funds etc)

Now let's assume you are right, we are out of time. Then following is my argument:
Attempting to fix our ecosystem is worthy goal nonetheless and instead of expecting "them" or "government" or "billionaires" to bail us out, I'd rather have us take the responsibility. In worst case, it'll be a adventure and will be worth it.
>It's true. We won it all, but we somehow still lost, and that's a difficult and sad thing to realize. Even though FOSS ate the world, we didn't win software freedom, we just enabled a bunch of new tech giants to put us into consumer roles with little to no freedom once again.

It's always like that. Creation vs Entropy, Hackers vs Systems. One won't work without the other. We can't win software freedom in the current world, we can only fight against losing it and it's going to be a constant battle. But it's the battle enables everyone and raises the tech bar.
The usual "supply and demand" rule doesn't even work consistently. See Veblen goods for a counterexample.

So it's hard to see economics as a valid science. There are no consistent theories and exceptions to everything.

> The problem with mathematical economics is that the models are incomplete, and people aren’t perfectly rational actors.

I don't understand this criticism. All sciences are based on models that lie somewhere between incomplete and utterly wrong, but still these models are in fact useful and provide value. Take for instance physics, and how in some applications gravity is still modelled as a constant acceleration of 9.8m/s^2 pointing down. Although that model is very wrong it still works well enough to be useful.

I was lumping in debit cards/EFTPOS with credit cards (and of course cash is also an option in stores). If not paying with cash, you use cards/contactless in stores because the terminals are integrated into the POS systems, have instant approval feedback etc. (and literally every card terminal here has contactless that works with pretty much any card and Apple Pay etc. too, which is nice).

To use a bank transfer you need to enter details (phone number or a bank number and account number) and then need either a description or reference number to match it to at the other side. And even with the New Payments Platform (fast payments), it can still take 30 seconds or so to come through. That's fine when paying an invoice or sending money to friends, but too cumbersome at a point of sale.
The whole idea that you could not open source it with such restrictions that a competitor could not use the code is so strange. It is perfectly possible to open source code in such a way that you can't use it for free in your own commercial product without a license.

I think it's the exact opposite though - if we suddenly died out then whatever comes after us will have much easier, not harder time. We've already extracted so many natural resources that there is an abundance of them on the surface. You could build an entire civilization just using our leftovers, no need to dig iron out, just melt the hundreds of millions of automobile husks that will be everywhere. And there's still trillions of barrels of oil left in the ground, as well as loads of coal left.

This is only true in the short run for new vehicles. A well-maintained vehicle will hold a significant amount of value after 10+ years. And if you are fortunate or savvy enough to buy a car that will obtain “collector” status you may even make a nice profit. One extreme example is the 86’-91 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro, which can be sold for up to $90k today.

A more common example is the first generation Toyota Tacoma (00’-04’) that is currently going up in price, I’ve seen closing prices at $15k in the last year. Small trucks are now extinct and this particular model is proven to be absurdly reliable, but who would have predicted that 10 years ago when these were selling for $3k-$5k?

Well my (shallow) understanding is that some entities are required to buy bonds of certain rating because of regulatory reasons or because that's what they promised investors. Other entities may not have such requirements but do rely on the rating because they don't have the resources to check the creditworthiness. And yet other entities may disregard the rating entirely and solely put their faith in their own analysis.

If I bought bonds myself I certainly wouldn't trust the rating. I'd only use it to serve as an indicator of how likely I can find a "greater fool"

I've been writing for Linux Journal since 1996.

Two years ago, we were told (with zero notice) that the magazine was shutting down. This was disappointing on numerous levels, and I wrote about it here:

https://lerner.co.il/2017/12/01/sad-day-end-linux-journal-2/

This morning, I woke up to discover that once again, Linux Journal is shutting down -- this time, for good. I'm sad for myself, but I'm also sad for the many amazing authors and editors with whom I've worked over the years. I've also met a huge number of readers at conferences at clients' offices, and I'm sorry that the magazine will no longer be around to serve them.
I don't think the foresight is in a particular manufacturer but in the fact that each successive fab generation was becoming more prohibitively expensive and more dominated by economies of scale.

I kind of want to see an analysis of the minimum viable volume of product to justify a new fab process going back over the years. Today it's just not feasible, compared to Noyce et al who could do it in their lab.

Contrary to what the article says, Haussmann isn’t really a controversial figure in France and much of what makes Paris one of the most beautiful and visited cities in the world is thanks to the architecture he imposed, something that few, if any, modern urbanist can claim.
Israel controls Gaza and the Westbank in pretty much any sense that matters, especially they limit or prohibit trade and they regularly conduct raids of all sorts.

That in turn means they are responsible for providing water and almost everything else, and the Palestinians have almost no agency over any of their affairs, which also makes it hard or impossible for them to reign in their militant fractions.

And it's hard to expect those in Gaza to not have a problem with what happens in Westbank and the other way around.
On a related note, there's CS Unplugged [1], which is a project that aims to teach CS fundamentals without computers.

Self driving as an escape path for Uber makes no sense to me. Right now Uber puts the cost of the fleet on the drivers. If they were to move to self driving they would need to build out both the fleet and the fleet support. That’s an enormous capital expenditure. I think it’s just a distraction for investors.
>As more and more jobs get pushed overseas

You can't look at this as a local problem. It's a problem that's going to affect every country in the world, because eventually all of them are going to have a stagnating population.

Automation is actually the one thing that could solve this issue. If we can make things cheap enough then maybe government programs can cover it, but that's a big if in the long term. It's more likely that some generation is going to get the short end of the stick - they'll have to pay for the benefits of the older generation, but they themselves won't get those benefits.

>Great, so people will have to pay their fair share and we get more time to solve for the long term. There is no downside to force the extremely wealth to pay their fair share.

You can think of it like that, but then you have to explain the taxes. Initially, payroll taxes for healthcare and pensions are there to cover the individual that's paying it. That is the fair share. If you remove the caps then this logic doesn't work anymore and it will be yet another tax where the government breaks their promise. I personally don't care if there are caps or not since it will never affect me.
Shhhhh... You're spoiling the myopic STEM elitism.

> Oil and gas companies - the entire "fracking revolution " has been funded by loses from bondholders.

That's no longer a serious problem (and is in fact an opportunity for the majors that have taken over). That's several years in the past as a large risk. At the scale of the US economy and its wealth, the remaining debt implosion risk in the fracking (Permian etc) segment is trivial.

The fracking buildout is over and consolidation has already largely occurred. There are only a few relevant small players left to be acquired by the majors. Companies like Exxon, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Devon, Pioneer, Apache, Concho and Occidental own everything. And a few of those are guaranteed future acquisitions for the big guys, including Devon and Apache. The majors have no real capital problems when it comes to affording to deal with swings in the price of oil, unlike the early years of the fracking boom when dozens of smaller firms still mattered and were highly leveraged. And at this point we know where most of the oil is at in the prime fracking zones, the little wildcatters served their purpose.

The "what about"-ism doesn't really help or work here. I.O.U's are essentially some sort of loan (with or without interest).

The point of a loan/iou is it's okay a long as you can pay later.

This works great in a growing economy. Leverage. But once things start slowing down, the pressures start to mount and i.o.u's start never getting paid back slower and slower to never - defaulting.

There's a limit how far one economy can grow and for China it's already begun to slow. These types of loans are a symptom of that.

Many developers work on FOSS for free. A project with a good community often has many people who contribute the occasional bug report, patch, or documentation addition.

Few developers work on FOSS full time for free, at least for very long. However, there is a sizeable group of FOSS developers who do full time or large amounts of part time work for far less than market rate, especially those who are funded primarily through donations. You can go to many smaller projects and see the level of donations they get (e.g. the creators of Godot pay themselves $4400/month, and that is one of the most financially successful small open source projects). I would suspect even for the projects you mentioned above, money is far from the primary motivation of the developers, and they could make more elsewhere.

Handwaving all of this for fun: 1/3 of employees are women, and let's say they are all millennials for ease of calculation. In 2016 there were about 2 million births among 40 millions millennial women, so 5% were pregnant. I'm going to arbitrarily halve that for Google employees, because educational achievement/income both correlate with lower birth rates. 2.5% of 1/3 approximately says 1% of Google employees are pregnant each year, or 1000 people. So out of 3000 pregnancies in the last few years, you've heard of this incident, so that's 1% of the 100 incidents, or 1/30 pregnant women at Google experiencing discrimination. Sounds pretty high - if you were in a "new mothers" group at Google with 100 women who'd recently been pregnant, three of them would have stories like this.
