- What's the benefit to a large corporation doing this instead of lots of small companies? (The economies of scale need to outweigh the large corporate overhead.)

- What's WeWork's secret sauce or first mover advantage?
I'm certainly not interested, but it sounds like an extension of dorm living, with better amenities; sort of like senior living, for young people. Without knowing the details, sounds like it would appeal to some; although cost is going to be an issue.

>Others are arguing he means "the difference between those particular ages is minor, and both could be considered reasonable ages of consent".

That does not make it "morally absurd" to set 18 as the legal age of consent, so I don't think that's a plausible reading of what RMS said. He could only find the idea morally absurd if he found the idea of the age of consent morally absurd - which is consistent with everything he's ever said that touches on the issue. If he was merely quibbling about the age, he'd say "I think the age of consent should be a bit lower."

>No, but Stallman doesn't seem to be the kind of person who would be dishonest in that manner.

It's not clear what you are referring to here. I'm not much impressed by someone later saying that they changed their mind a long time ago (if you have a reference to RMS saying that - I don't). Grossly wrong public statements should be publicly retracted. If they're not retracted, then they're fair game for criticism.

>although he does not seem to be bothered by the fact that the young woman was 16)

He says "she may have had — I expect, did have — entirely willing sex with him, and they would still call it 'assault'". That is, he thinks the fact that the girl was a teenager (and he didn't know she was 16 specifically in the earlier version of the comment) is no barrier to her having "willing" sex with an older man. It's painfully obvious what RMS thinks. He thinks that age should not be a factor in deciding whether or not someone was raped or sexually assaulted, since people of any age (or at least, teens up) can "willingly" have sex with much older adults.

None of this discounts a meritocracy, it simply discounts the notion that the only goal in life is monetary. If you look at many organizations (non-corporate), position and reward don't come in monetary or positions of power, but in fulfillment. Doctors Without Borders, Buddhist monasteries, etc. etc. Yet all of these will reward effort and merit in some way or another, unless I'm missing something here. While this was a sweet little story and all, merit has function and the baby shouldn't be thrown out with the bath water.
It has a lot of echoes of the .com boom, with a modern twist- the pitch has changed a bit, its not just about losing money at scale, its about changing the world while doing so, with a nostalgic dose of delusion- saying their potential market is the entire real estate market worth trillions of dollars.

Pay isn't just about giving people what they deserve. It's also about providing the incentives that create the behavior you want. You can do that through piece-work compensation, but that's extremely hard to manage for executives (and knowledge workers, too, but that's a separate discussion).

If your workers aren't risk-adverse, then a tournament is exactly as efficient as a piece-work compensation scheme for convincing them to put in effort. The proof is a bit more involved than I'm willing to digest for a HN comment, but there's a full paper you can read about this here: http://faculty.smu.edu/Millimet/classes/eco7321/papers/lazea...

Anyhow, what all this means is that providing a prize to top performers means you can get a ton of effort, training, and work from people competing for it, and you don't have to incur the expense of monitoring the inputs into performance or quantifying the overall performance rendered. You only have to care about the rank-ordering of performance.
Well the problem with cars is they cost a lot to make and the leeway for do overs is very less. China can co-opt IP but getting things right is very different with cars compared to consumer electronics, where they can iterate and improve.
These days, simulator sickness in VR is usually a result of the game, not of the headset itself. Roller coaster simulators are sickness-inducing almost by definition, since the entire point of such applications is to simulate crazy, intense motion without actually moving the user at all in real life. For anyone without an iron stomach, an experience like that is almost guaranteed to make you sick regardless of the quality of the headset you're using.

As I said in my comment, because he makes two references to the private SO offering known as Teams, and none to the Jobs monetization. [1] Therefore, it isn't something that the current CEO thinks the next CEO should focus on, therefore, it can't be what is paying the bills. Whether it works for a developer or not I can't say, I have no personal experience using any job board. Just I don't think it can matter much to the bottom line of the company based on what Joel wrote here.

There is, but the financial aid formulas are sliding scales, not sharp cut-offs. They just like to publicize the zero-tuition cutoff because it makes for a good press-release.

The formulas (and sticker price, and median income) were pretty different when I went to college, but I had about 2/3 of my tuition paid for by grants when I went to Amherst, almost 2 decades ago. My parents were an elementary-school teacher and a househusband, so we were far from rolling in it. It was expensive, but ultimately affordable. If you're in the situation where it'll cost $100K in loans to go to college, you should shop around, and potentially also try to negotiate them down. Amherst gave me roughly double the financial aid that Middlebury did (ultimately a large factor in deciding where to matriculate), and then tacked on an extra couple grand when I said I was deciding between them and Williams.

Legally speaking no it is not. Morally speaking yes it can be (depending on many factors).

Some legal systems attempt to account for this. E.g. England and Wales have two key ages. Having sex with someone under 16 might be (to use US terms) rape or statutory rape depending on whether the person under 16 consented. Both are illegal but rape more so. Having sex with someone under 13 is always rape since children under 13 are not considered able to consent. But in some cases 16 is not the cutoff if e.g. a teacher has sex with a pupil under 18 this is also always illegal. On the other hand if the defendant genuinely did not know the chief witness was under 16 and there was consent this is a defense.
It IS how it works.

The $7500 credit is all but completely phased out already for Tesla (it's only $1,875 right now). And yet they're STILL outcompeting the other Plug-in electric cars in the US by a large margin (13,150 Model 3s in August versus 2500 Prius Prime, the next most-sold plug-in vehicle). That is my point.

It's an advantage to conventional carmakers who wait to the last minute to invest in electrification, after someone else has done all the hard work, and just integrate some off the shelf electric drivetrain. It puts those who actually invest in a full, cleansheet efficient electric drivetrain domestically in the US (like Tesla and GM) at a big disadvantage versus foreign firms or for multinational corporations like the Volkswagen group who have multiple subsidiaries like Audi, VW, Porsche who each get their own group of credits (even though the Volkswagen Group's MEB platform will be available to all their subsidiaries).

It makes no sense and incentivizes the wrong behavior: advantages foreign firms above domestic. Advantages latecomers over those with the foresight to invest early (Tesla and GM, for example). There either should be one big pot of credits, or the credits should be sunsetted on a global timeline (instead of by number).

And until conventional cars are paying for their full externalities from carbon emissions (and others), they are being implicitly subsidized and an EV credit of some sort (although imperfect) will be needed to level the playing field.

My wife has worked in child care for years so that helped a lot. One of the coolest things she showed me was teaching our daughter sign language, before she could speak. My wife said that babies can get really frustrated when they know what they want but can't communicate it, but fortunately they learn gross motor control way before they can talk. So we taught her basic, simple signs like "more", "please", "thank you." I couldn't believe how quickly she picked it up and started communicating.

Nowhere in this whole page of text do we find consideration of any actual interest of USA citizens as such. No one down at the filling station cares about Turkmenistan. If asked to consider the "problem of empire", they'd answer, "Yep, it's a problem." Nor do we find here the actual reason that the war media are constantly inciting more wars in more unfortunate foreign locales: to feed more money into the maw of the military-industrial complex. Face it, USA military spends money and kills random people. They don't win wars. It's one of the more obvious facts of modern life. Only constant gaslighting from the war media has created the sort of psychological prisons from whence could issue the specious reasoning seen here.

I think you're still generalizing based on how you feel, instead of analysing this objectively. I quit a few years ago and for the most part I didn't even notice after a month. But I've seen friends get offended and get into arguments over likes, and teens online cry and go through withdrawal-like symptoms over losing followers. The full effects of this stuff is yet to come with young gen.

A fair point, and I don't have a silver bullet. But wherever we talk about markets optimizing utility we need to acknowledge that to-date that's purely theoretical, and hand-waving away externalities and the commons has brought the entire planet to the brink of ecological collapse.

Of course, whether or not the philosophy described in the article has merit, one has to ask what purpose it might serve the author and the publication to produce this article now.

Me, I think it's to have something to point to when the recession hits, and then say "See? It's not so bad. You'll be better off for it. Don't worry about why this happened, or why things like this seem to keep happening. It's an intensely personal journey you're on, and the last thing you need to be worrying about is how those of us who enjoy a comfortable life in walled enclaves keep effortlessly doing so while everything you had is now gone."

That's just me, though.

>The CentOS Stream project sits between the Fedora Project and RHEL in the RHEL Development process, providing a "rolling preview" of future RHEL kernels and features.

Thats what Fedora was originally for. Fedora advancements were mainlined into RHEL, and RHEL was repackaged as Centos.

If i had to propose a theory...At worst, this is "embrace, extend, extinguish." Tacking on a vainglorious service for an already successful project thats siphoning potential customers. Centos cant directly relate their brand to RedHat, but Redhat gets to call their offering "Centos Stream" when Centos is itself a trademark? Its very suspicious.

At best, this is Redhat acknowledging that they were absolutely blindsided by Docker, Compose, and Kubernetes in RHEL7. This all existed in EPEL and customers clearly felt preferential to the offerings themselves, while RedHat had to scramble to allocate resources to Openshift, podman, and a potential ground-up fork of Docker itself into Redhat as Swarm was clearly a direct threat. SCL is dated and cludgy.

By injecting themselves into Centos, they may put themselves closer to a developer market that theyve historically not been able to tap. Startups and small businesses dont buy IBM/Redhat licenses or support. They also have a chance to react to potential disasters like Docker much faster, albeit seeing as they are a part of the big blue machine now, its hard to imagine this will help in the long run.
But how do you know your own worth? Worth being a social construct requires the evaluation of others. You cannot give yourself worth any more than you can 'give' yourself material wealth in a thought. The value of self worth is in direct proportion to the defined ego: the thing the creates the distinction between the "I" and "Them". Ergo, if you give yourself a worth, you are feeding your ego an illusion of social acceptance of the 'Other'. The way to move beyond the whole craving situation is to reduce the desire for the self-worth (i.e. putting the ego on a diet).

I don't think nesting is possible in the examples in that post. I'm sure there's some way to get it working that I just haven't figured out yet. Maybe you could replace the default template strings with something using tagged template literals (like https://github.com/developit/htm).

You can work around nesting by spinning up new components after the innerHTML assignment, and assigning them with IDs. Here's an example where I've done that:
