You already know that Open Source is not the same as Free Software. There is very little public support for Stallmans idea of free software values, so your use of the term "we" is puzzling. FWICT, the HN audience primarily consists of people who want to start companies to make MONEY, not engage in social movements over software freedoms. Its impossible to say this without sounding rude but, you seem like a Slashdot anti-MS nutter. Also, there is simply no reason for MS to hate open source or free software. What MS is doing is already successful and they're making tons of cash. That doesn't mean its good, or that we have to agree with their position.

It is worth noting that the TSSI isn't the only one around any more, though - nor is the strictly quantitative interpretation of value theory. The TSSI was constructed as an interpretation to solve the transformation problem, but there's Dumenil's New Interpretation now and Fred Moseley's Macro-Monetary Interpretation. It is not surprising that Freeman would make such a concession as an economist rather than as a philosopher, where Marxian value-form theory flourished in Germany and Japan during the 70s and 80s and still to this day.
I think a lot of this has to do with what it means to be a leader. You have the final say but you also have the responsibility to listen to your peers and use information provided. Many of our representatives aren't leaders. I know many here like to start out of politics, but case in point is Trump with his climate change denial rhetoric, constantly ignoring military advisors and tweeting on a whim without any consultation, and moving forward with various deals that advisors are recommending against.

I’m not so certain about that actually, I’ve certainly seen people making $20k that had more free money and recreation time than some people making $100k. Especially as regards recreation time.

To be fair, making $20k was almost always a choice in those cases.

You're basically saying they'll check the whole of the world that they weren't in Wisconsin.
That's totally fair.

I'm not saying detecting errors earlier through static typing has no value of course. Just that there is a spectrum of value a team can derive from static typing that scales based on the length of their deploy and error detection cycle, and at the lower ends of that scale it's not always clear that static typing provides enough of value to justify its costs.

And that if a team doesn't already have them, investing to minimize the deployment and error detection cycle is often much more valuable than investing in static typing because it's an effective tool for both dealing with runtime errors as well as errors that could have been statically determined.
This is overly simplistic and assumes an open market witn no barrier to entry for competitors, which is not the case.

Only suggestions I have is reconsider not running a natural gas line. Cooking on electricity is not great, and wood is really bad for pollution.

I understand the Russia situation, but geopolitics changes all the time, and the house is likely to stand for a long time.

Since you seem to be in Europe, and you want an air source heat pump, I would suggest this product for your heating: Lochinvar LCGHPi-40HT.

Then instead of using your electricity to (inefficiently) run a heat pump, send the electricity back out on the grid, while using more efficient natural gas. And then you help CO2 emissions in a more globally way, rather than just by your house. CO2 acts globally after all.

Even with the gas leakage, natural gas is still worth it over heating with electricity. I think you have something like 1/5 the emissions of electricity (and remember your PV going back on the grid reduces fuel consumption elsewhere).
Bostrom, at least, makes good philosophical arguments, and has been doing so since well before these topics around AI were even being discussed.

> RAII ownership semantics (I.e. std::unique_ptr)

RAII is baad for performance. Really bad. It's an OOP programming style that can be used to glew a few high-level constructs together. But if you use it on the lower levels, you will miss out on a lot of (systemic) optimization possibilities, because RAII gives you piecemeal construction/destruction pairs.

constexpr/generic programming might have a few nice applications, but in most places they're used without a real need (from what I've seen), while leading to extremely slow compiles. (Those in turn lead to longer turnaround times, worse program quality, worse efficiency...).

std::array, like std::vector, is some nice sugar compared to the C primitives, but if you use them at API boundaries you will get bad coupling effects.

The C++ programmers that I look up to all write basically C with maybe a few select C++ features. Many never write "class" and never include C++ headers. Some just write plain C.

Spies got the Soviet Union the atom bomb, the negotiator of Brandon Woods agreement was a soviet spy and there are many many more examples. Then again, the Soviet Union had the advantage of leading a global communist network and had a truly transnational universal movement to draw from.

However that said, intelligence agencies and spies can do much harm as well and are a necessary foreign element to democracy and even republicanism.

Any state should be really careful and think hard with how and what kind of intelligence service you build for your country.

-------------------

P.S: Interesting story, Stalin had the best spy network in history and systematically perched his foreign intelligence networks (and diplomatic core) and basically received basically no foreign intelligence for weeks.
Vestas is heavily marketing their 5.6 MW platform now, and at least sending preliminary sales and design information to clients. We're probably a couple of years out from installing any that big though.

The real surprise is how fast capacity has jumped. We went through a period of rapid size increase, then a decade plus plateau around the 2 MW mark, and now a very rapid rise to 4+ MW onshore.

It's true we get to better winds higher up, but we also see some significant cost advantages related to building fewer turbine foundations, needing to erect fewer individual units and having relatively fewer miles of site road and collection to achieve the same production.

In the 90s there was a popular, now-forgotten CRM/bookkeeping system for MS-DOS called Vega. When they launched version 2.0, the founder/CEO boasted to the press about how 2.0 was old hat, and how they were working on 3.0, which was going to be so much better. Subsequently, almost nobody bought 2.0, because the current product worked well enough and they wanted to hold out for 3.0. I believe the company went under as a result.

Uh, what? The code looks correct to me:

There's a conditional branch on $rdi that jumps to .L7 (which returns) when node is NULL.

I could totally live with Schuko instead of BS1363. A lot of earlier standards in Europe were crap, but Schuko does more or less everything BS1363 does, and at 3.5kW instead of 3kW.

I could probably be argued around to the French alternative to Schuko, I think Schuko is better, but the French way (and the plugs that accept either but not other crap systems) isn't terrible.

>These are the types of things most men don't have to worry about.

My co-worker went got me fired because I didn't accept her advances. It's a long story but she accused me of hitting on her, when in reality she was hitting on me and I was just ignoring her. A bunch of other guys supported her (idk why, I didn't know those guys much but they supported her even tho she is a pathological lier.)
I think it depends a lot on previous experience, what type of thing you are developing, and your tooling. I'm very comfortable and happy bouncing between C# in Unity, React and JS, and Haskell for more CS / intellectual curiosities. For me it's more about fit and choosing the right tool for the job.

All things being equal I prefer something like Haskell because it is very clean and expressive. But I hate excessive types when you are dealing with generics 3 level deep or when you have these funky type signatures dealing with monad transformers. It's just too many layers of abstraction that takes you away from the actual data / parameters.

When I'm writing something small I find typing slows me down. But when writing something bigger, working in a team, or working on a codebase for a longer period of time the typing acts as documentation. Typing something and having Intellisense tell you what is in a class is extremely helpful. Otherwise you have to jump to the file or look through documentation.

For me it's less about the errors it catches and more about the time saving of not having to read through code that I am calling in order to understand what I need to pass to it.

In general. strong typing is great when you are working with other people's code and 3rd party libraries, but excessive overhead when you just want to experiment and crank out something small.
If ImageGAN approximated perfect classification skills, would it spontaneously develop the capability to detect and evade predators?

No it wouldn’t, and I think you may have missed the point. It’s about constrained domains in the mathematical sense, that there is a clearly defined scope of inputs and outputs. It would simply be impossible for an AI service to develop outside that scope.
In the OPs example, hiring low wage labor, is in fact reflected in the price.
There's no such thing as a catch-all "insurance umbrella." Auto insurance providers already discriminate between various makes & models. So if Teslas are actually less expensive to insure then it means every provider which is charging higher-than-average premiums is making a colossal actuarial goof.

The much simpler explanation here is the correct one: the high cost and sparse availability of parts & repair service make Teslas much more expensive to insure.
Even at those optimistic costs that is $2-6,000 dollars per person (20 tonnes/American-year), 8 to 24k per family of four. I'd call that a drastically lower quality of living for an average American, to say nothing about a working person in the 3rd world who probably doesn't make 2,000USD in a year.

One reason why ACH is tricky with consumer accounts is that there are LOOOONG reversal windows (~30 days) whereas the business transfers ("Corporate Credit and Debit") are final in 24-48 hours.

That means for consumer accounts there's a ton more risk of things going sideways well after the money has moved on.

This list is mostly manageable by capable IT or a power user willing to learn or find the right tools.

PoSh can remove built in apps and apply a clean template start menu and pinned apps. With MDT this can be automated and a deployment completed in under half an hour. A power user may need to log in as a default admin, set things up, then create and use a secondary basic user account for their regular use (the Start menu/pinned app changes only apply to new users when pushed via PoSh).

I have a short list/folder of tools and scripts to start a new build with at home mostly built and tested for the MDT system I used to manage. It's pretty slick.

Bummer, I've been curious about learning it.
I envy your certainties.
Candidly, I would say that college does not even provide the base skill-set.

In the Real World(tm) of building software, you will work on systems built over years by other people, many of which have long since left the project or company. The level of integration tests, unit tests, documentation, and automation will depend entirely on the culture of the organization.

Databases, low-level I/O, sorting operations, and such are nominally provided either by the standard library or sourced from the community.

Infrastructure will rule your world. Good infrastructure, with smooth provisioning and deployment, will make your day a joy. Poor infrastructure, with lots of manual work and sign-offs from ten degrees of sysadmins, will do the opposite.

You will also work as a member of a team, with a wide variety in terms of background and experience levels, making clear communication, in all forms, an absolutely essential skill.

In college, very little of the above is actually covered

Sure, you'll learn lots of stuff about operating systems, algorithms, compilers, data structures, and the like. But without any real context on what that stuff really does.

But the big place that computer science education is a big let-down is on the collaboration front. There aren't many programs, perhaps none, where you are required to, as a member of a small team, maintain and modify code built three years ago by other people, and graded on your ability to produce work that can continue to be developed by future students.

Instead, the focus is on solving relatively straightforward problems as quickly as possible, with little or no attention paid to user experience, readability, testing, and any of the other things that make up the "engineering" side of the practice of building software.

What exactly is the alternative to the tool linked here? I am really curious to see because I have never come across an open source resource-lite customizable dashboard such as this. As someone who has his entire workflow on the terminal, this tool is of great interest to me.

> I mainly brought up Google Docs because it's something that many of us use that breaks us from "living in the terminal". Someone who "lives in the terminal" would want all of Google Doc's functionality, but in a terminal.

People who live in the terminal does not literally mean that they spend 100% of their time on the terminal fyi. I doubt anyone does in this day and age, I was under the impression that that fact was implied.
I was really surprised that there was no mention of APIs there. Obviously as "services" many (most?) of these AI services would be available via APIs. There are already machine-readable directories of APIs and AI services relying on external APIs, so we can extrapolate that we'll see more and more AI/ML systems experimenting with various external APIs as part of their learning.

From this perspective, it's very clear to me that there's a big difference between a translation service and a service that would "steer Fortune 500 companies". The latter will be much more open-ended and most likely dynamically rely on many other services. Indeed, I would also expect it to rely on artificial-artificial-intelligence services such as Mechanical Turk and Upwork, giving it a lot more flexibility.

What is to prevent that complex service from evolving beyond its creator's expectations?
