Switzerland would first need to be part of the European Union to be able to be part of the Euro Currency region. They voted against this in 1992 and again in 2001. I am not swiss myself so take this with a grain of salt, but a quick research showed that overwhelmingly swiss citizens are against joining the EU to keep their independence and their unique way of doing democracy (direct votes on issues) probably couldn't work so well anymore.

Alternatively, there may be no political progress and the technological ideas never get implemented (or only when it's too late to do any good).
Some consumption is probably necessary for creativity. You need to bring some things outside the world into yourself, or your ideas will feel made-up and phony.

I make art, usually abstract or surrealist art. One of the things I try to tell others is to get out of their head. Learn things, read books, and so on. It is all definitely tied to creativity. After all, the more ideas one has to pull from the more creative folks can be.

If all you have is romance novels and stories - or religious material, or any other one subject for that matter - your output is probably going to reflect these things.

In all reality, in physical art and music, direct copies are often learning experiences. It isn't much different than taking a toaster apart and putting it back together again, really, or taking it apart to build one you design. Putting any twist on the art does what you say, though.
The reliance on documents is interesting. If you are having to ask for proof that someone has passed an exam or obtained a qualification then you have already gone wrong to some extent.

I don't see where you're going with this.

Plastics and overfishing are the least of our worries (though not to be dismissed) -- we know how to stop those (though we might find the means to do so unpalatable).

I find the difference in vape use in the US and UK really interesting. We (the UK) have much lower rates of teen vaping, and the NHS is actively pushing vaping as a pillar of its stop-smoking programmes. Vaping just doesn't seem to have much of a cool image, it's just that thing that your ex-smoker friends do instead of smoking.

Meanwhile in the us there seems to be a full blown moral panic going on, higher use by teens, and it seems to have some kind of "cool" factor.

I'm curious whats going on with these lung problems, and why it seema to have suddenly become an issue.
There are tons of scammers using Shopify. They’ll put up dozens of storefronts selling name brand sneakers or AirPods at “90%” off and stuff like that.

Of course, they never ship product (because they don’t have any) or if you’re lucky you get some super low quality alibaba knockoff.
Is it possible vaping did not suppress your appetite like smoking did, and so your stomach created more digestive acids, but you didn't eat more because of habit?
I like the "you are what you eat" sentiment and agree about judging (I used to hate broccoli, now I tolerate it) but analogies being what they are:

> And finally, you wouldn't eat a 4 course meal on you commute, and you would definitely have some trouble making one on a bus or train ride too.

You wouldn't eat a 4 course meal on a bus, but it's not 4 courses and flavor and textures that "make you", it's the calories and nutrients. I can absolutely eat a 2/3 of a day's worth of food on a bus no problem, and I can absolutely make this food on a bus too. Think Soylent-like shakes.

(The equivalent of making Soylent shakes on a longer commute is a netbook with SSH connection to my home desktop, running terminal Emacs frame. Don't do that always, though - I learned to use travel time to rest and think.)
The next step this begs for is for the shell to be like lisp. The results are s expressions and you can write macros to slice dice and pipeline the data to your hearts content.

So, to max it out, one should possibly consume while creating?

That's great news. I often consume while making art!

On a more serious note, though, these simply aren't the same thing and they both have their places in life. Who am I to say that laughing at a youtube reading off reddit comments isn't as satisfying as making art? It is hard to tell because these sorts of things fill different slots.

I'll add that the fluff I consume (alongside the more serious learning stuff) honestly helps the creating bit. I get ideas I might not get on my own if I simply created. This is really part of the reason why folks say drugs help their creativity: It makes connections they might not have made otherwise (and why LSD has helped us in sciences among other things). The more ideas and knowledge one has - even low quality ones - the more one has to draw from to create with.

That analogy is the digital equivalent of breaking into my house and relieving yourself on the carpet.

Any time someone is paid to say something to me, I reserve the right to not listen. If I value what someone has to say, that value is non-transferrable. I'm not handing out permanent easements to my brain to anyone who can grab my attention.

I pay for YouTube in money so I don't have to pay the cost of listening to people pretend they care about mattresses. The creators do not find the platform lucrative enough, so they put ads that aren't marked as ads in their videos in order to get paid twice. Sorry, three times if you count Patreon.

>If there were a return to pride in and appreciation of a job well done, there would be no shortage of people willing to do the work, in my mind. The reason most people are so unwilling to do these things is because they feel like it is beneath them, and that doing them is a demonstration of their low status.

The whole modern economy is based on having them feel low status...

People content with their jobs and lives don't consume as much. The whole 1.2 trillion dollar advertising industry (plus tons of non-measured counterparts, e.g. lifestyle articles in magazines, movies etc) is based on promoting unattainable lifestyles as exciting to sell products they associate with them.

>Maybe some people. Not others.*

Well, parent already said "most people", not all.

(But even if they haven't said "most", one should assume they allow for exceptions in any general statement in a casual conversation. Unless of course they used the universal quantifier and insisted on "absolutely everybody, no exceptions whatsoever". But I digress).

>It has nothing to do with status. Most maintenance work isn't done in front of people

It doesn't have to be to be associated with low status though. It's merely enough that it's considered as stopping one from doing the things they think would raise their status (what they "should be doing" that's not beneath them).
If you're looking to learn more FP, may I recommend SICP? https://github.com/sarabander/sicp If you google around you'll find it highly regarded.

After the first chapter or two you can move away from working in the trenches and work on a more abstract level. The concepts are what make FP shine, and once you know them, you can bring those concepts into many OOP languages to your advantage.

It would seem for every new house you build, you would convert a YIMBY to a NIMBY.
Agreed - I don't see how adding things like "let" instead of "var" or the spread operator (e.g "[...x]" instead of "[].concat(x)") makes fingerprinting or anything nefarious any more likely, apart from making it more pleasant to program so maybe more people will use it?

The "old" javascript was turing complete (as the article points out), as is the current one. It is not like they've added "Object.turnOnNefariousPrivacyInvasions()".

Granted, the browser APIs have evolved (e.g. webcam access, localstorage etc) and are exposed via Javascript, but that is nothing to do with JS the language.
Coils aren’t made of copper afaik, they are made out of steel or any other metal with high resistance.
That's beside the point though.

You might be considered very low status if you "can't afford to pay someone and you still don't do it", and slightly less low status if you do them yourself.

One is lowly and dirty-ass, the other is lowly-and-clean.

But not lofty and successful as "I'm all about creating, I have staff to do those things, can't be bothered as my time is precious".

To the more well off/elites etc, someone who "can't afford to pay someone" and does those things themselves is still low status. They are not going to get impressed with someone cleaning the house themselves...

The Amazon Rainforest Tipping Point is 20-25% deforestation total.

Past the tipping point the rainforest dies.

You could frame OOP as a single concept. OOP is making an abstraction that within that abstraction can store mutable state. Though, that doesn't really hit at all OOP has to offer.

FP, on the other hand, is more like a set of tools. You can use many of those tools in many OOP languages. In this way FP is a lot like procedural programming paradigm, as it too is a set of tools.

And that is why

>I grasped the concept of OOP pretty easily. Can't say the same about FP.

This rings a bell. I think I remember reading about it either on here or elsewhere. You probably don't need or want it, but you have my sympathy anyway: people can be extremely entitled.

I agree, JavaScript the Good Parts was written in a time when there essentially was no ecosystem in Javascript to speak of, so it was by definition focused on nothing but the language.

In 2019 JavaScript comes as part of a much more developed (and useful!) ecosystem that is completely tied in with tools such as Babel and Webpack and the alternatives mentioned.

Even if you don't use or want to use any particular one of them, knowledge of all of them, at least what they do, is more or less essential to work in modern JavaScript to understand how the ecosystem fits together and how most projects out there use the language.
Do you have good reasons for caring, reasons other people can understand? Do you do anything about these problems?

It depends on what your goals are. It's really easy to write slow FP code, for example.

To be fair, the article leaves out the size of the areas affected by the wildfires; however, it does proffer a guesstimation in the potential damage as a byproduct of the fires:

>The fires have been releasing a large amount of carbon dioxide, the equivalent of 228 megatonnes so far this year, according to Cams, the highest since 2010.

In units the Americans would be familiar with, that would be roughly 461,608,800,000 pounds of carbon dioxide. (1 tonne = ~2024.6 pounds, according to Wikipedia[0]).

Thank you for this quote.

It's taking me a long time, almost a year.

I was wondering if I remember the previous chapters, and I sort of do so. But I worry that by the time I have finished it, I will not be able to summarize the chapters well.

I guess it's not necessary. There are many things I have picked up from it; it has lead to many interesting discussions with my friends, and so on. That should be enough.

Nothing you say is backed by data.

And none of the data you pointed to disproves anything I said. Additionally, there is some data to back up my position: while it’s true that it would be impossible for anyone to have data on how many accounts have been opened due to the guru effect, a quick search of YouTube should help you understand the gigantic scale of this issue.

Here’s why you have not disproved a single thing I said. Most of these gurus are preaching facebook ads + Shopify + dropshipping. As long as these students keep putting money into FB ads, and the gurus keep recruiting people, Shopify payments sales volume will continue to grow - whether or not the guru students are actually making a net profit after expenses. But of course that won’t continue forever, as people don’t have infinite sums of money to lose, and most will lose money.

Right now, there is still enough momentum to keep it growing. I would imagine that within a year though, you’ll start seeing it level off or start to decline, as the gurus move onto the next fad. Once that starts happening, the whole house of cards comes tumbling down.
