I have tried many many things.

One thing I have learned is despite all having our own quirks, we all respond to pain similarly.

If you disconnect the pain of bad behavior from actions, you will break a framework/model with potential.

We built a system which has relatively quick feedback with a high level of automation.

The key thing was open communication, collaboration, and a willingness to feel pain...you will adapt and make better choices because of it.

I get you are looking for more of the dynamics of an entire framework. I felt that key point was the crux of it all. Apply that to any of your models and I would argue that is a good starting point. The other note would be, if it requires more than an hour per week of planning, prep, etc. there is a high(er) potential of failure.

Automate, automate, automate!

We do have a framework that is a hybrid of your models where all money enters a single account and it flows out to pre-defined systems. We integrated a couple systems together creating an envelope system with cards that have no credit.

We have regular conversations on monthly expenses over dinner (exercises such as calculating cost of dinner, projects, restaurants for the week), much like you might have at work trying to understand operating expenses and we adjust.
Follow the classic Starman explanation, red light stop, green light go, yellow light go really really fast.[1]

In my state you are permitted to enter an intersection if the light is solid yellow which is used to indicate it till soon be red. We also have recently seen an expansion of the yellow left turn signals that can be yellow while your main lane is red, meaning you can make a left turn as long as oncoming traffic permits. Those actually made things much better at many intersections.

still when I learned to drive I was told if I was turning and the first car in line that I should be in the intersection ready to turn which could mean completing the turn on red

aside from the cost for entry, that's the same sentiment that led to why i no longer contribute to wikipedia. zero censorship is too little; any is too much.

i'd love to hear your description of this working - you don't need to mention where it is specifically because that would of course, ruin it.
That's definitely a dimension of what's happening, none of the utilities have ever been cool with the nebulous liability presented by inverse condemnation. I think if anyone were in their shoes, they wouldn't be either.

PG&E knows that they're way less liable for damage caused by service interruptions than they see they are for being responsible for wildfires. They're doing what California wants them to even if it's not the intent of the law.

That's mainly why I think seizing PG&E doesn't solve your problems in the short/medium term. If the state owned their lines tomorrow, they haven't seen the last wildfire. I just don't see a scenario in which the state is as eager to pick as high a number when determining liabilities.
ah sorry, I meant to say "couldn't go from 56k to 56k." BBS sysops were maxed out at 33.6k.
You are right, I took it from a different angle (the incorrect one).
I rely heavily on https://workflowy.com/

Here is a quick interactive demo: https://workflowy.com/list-maker/

But I'm not sure how well that works with 50 people. You should probably mention what kind of knowledge you want to share and what features you might need.
I used to get a very sharp pain in my head, above my ear, when making outbound calls, just before the recipient would pick up. Nobody seems to believe me, and I have never had the motivation to try to prove it to anyone, but it got to the point where I would hold the phone away from my head until the person answered.

It began with a Sony Ericsson, but happened across a couple of different phone brands over the years. Still happens extremely occasionally now (maybe twice a year) with my iPhone.

I'd be interested to know if the signal strength is suddenly spiked when a call is connected.
> ...the real point is that it's irrelevant how well or poorly we judge those people. What matters is the facts they or others present.

This matters if your expertise are in the subject to which the facts belong, otherwise it means little, particularly in a subject which requires an incredible amount of knowledge of an an incredible array of subjects.

I can look a bunch of absolute facts regarding 5g signals and make an assumption, however, because my expertise lie far outside the realm of 5g, an expert can easily come along afterwards and show me why these facts–while accurate–mean nothing to the subject at hand and why a completely different set of facts are what one should be looking at.

Expertise absolutely matters. And this is coming from a person who is confident that a greater than zero amount of companies would happily pay people to add noise to a topic in order to poison us for a fraction of a percentage boost in their quarterly growth.

Expertise matters on complex subjects and attempting to pretend as if all ideas are equal no matter who they come from or who receives them is a recipe for disaster.

The collective We really need to get back to a place where we freely and happily say “It’s really outside my realm of expertise. You should track down an expert.” and way more often daily and regularly “I don’t know.”
Amber is prepare to stop not an instruction to do a crash stop from my memoires of the UK highway code.

The name might not matter but the post you responded to asked if it was set up as a Universal Basic Income, which does matter.

One of the claims UBI-backers make is the fact that giving everyone the same amount of money will be much simpler and require much less bureaucracy than income-based welfare schemes. So, I get my $1k this month, you get your $1k, the homeless guy under the bridge gets his $1k, Bill Gates gets his $1k, etc.
Sorta unrelated, but has anyone gotten this to work with Quartz News articles? I’ve had little success with trying it to bypass their paywalls.
What would the perfect language be like? Disregarding performance
Suppose you had a super-quantum ultra megaprocessor that can compute anything in the blink of an eye. However, what it can't do is guess what you want it to compute for you. So you need a programming language to declare what you want (speech recognition/blabla is not allowed, it has to be a formal written language).

I think something like prolog, but with breadth first resolution and no cuts. So then you can make use of the bidirectionality of statements.
This where you need filter signals

This is the most thoughtful comment I've ever read on HN.
Was it in-appropriate under a post that was itself politically-charged? I've seen quite a lot of others advocating for political policies without censure. For instance, I saw a large number of commenters arguing about the pros and cons of UBI under a recent post about Yang's automation fears being over-blown.

Don’t you think that this should be up to the founders to decide? I would personally much prefer a frat house atmosphere than the more common geeky introvert culture that most technology companies have, but I would not like there to be laws about it.

Also they probably figured out (finally) that the future of cars is electric vehicles, so they have a relatively short time to maximize profits.

Just a reminder that when the Saudis needed cash, they locked some of their richest families in a luxury hotel and "pressured them" until they handed over around $100bn in what was labelled an anti-corruption drive.

If VisionFund 1 goes under, losing $45bn is going to make Masayoshi Son really quite unpopular with the Saudis.

Why does this exist? What's the story? Is it on autopilot? Does Verizon maintain it to keep up trademarks? Is there some legal weirdness like "Universal Service Fund" that compels Verizon to do this?
Between Gamma rays and 3G is UV. Between UV and 3G is visible light. Between visible light and 3G is IR, one of which is the heat human bodies give off. Do warm blooded animals cause cancer? Because they're still a far higher frequency than 3G and the wattage of a human at rest is 100W which is roughly equivalent.

Do hugs cause cancer? If yes, then we can start narrowing it down to 3G/5G more after that. But by that stage I think we're doomed as a species anyway.
The liability risk from the fires is so high nobody is going to want to invest money in PG&E to fully clear all the fire prone lines. Also significantly raising prices is usually not allowed. Instead the existing share holders just try to bleed out whatever money they can.

I call bullshit on that. I know most people just use 2, but plenty use 3. You're using the same argument that Apple used to kill the headphone jack, that led to other phone manufacturers to follow suit. You don't have data on it and you're working within your own bias.
SICP if you want to learn programming side of CS.
Unfortunately it's a little more complex than that.
The interesting bit is that the original author's no longer feel that SICP is the right way to approach programming any more. In their words, we've moved to 'programming by poking' and hence the latest incarnation of the course uses python and not LISP.
I would personally say SICP.
Also a bit far fetched, but I would love to see more people read Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools aka The Dragon Book, is what made me fall in love with compilers

Self-evaluation of quality is not quite a systemic review of literature. Neither is research on drosophila melanogaster quite in the same ballpark as research on homo sapiens.
> It’s true that if you can manage to belong within certain in-groups in these places
Let’s be clear, the majority of people fall within these in-groups. As contrasted to say California or New York, where the in-groups are defined in a much more class-based way that excludes most people.

I’m just curious - are you from one of these places? Because the class distinctions you’re describing are very much in place in the same way as in big cities, they’re just mediated through many of the same forces. So you have the rich church and the poor church, but also god forbid if you’re poor and don’t go to church at all. The lowest of the low. And many people likewise just feign belief in this culture because the material circumstances are much worse on the outside than in.

As to your point about homelessness, given the cost of living in California, wouldn’t you expect people to be more prone to homelessness than in a place Kansas? Especially since wages are actually quite bad in California (for the median household), relatively speaking.

If you’re argument is that liberal Capitalism is more openly cruel than liberal Capitalism, mediated through religious in-groupings, I’d say sure, that’s possible.

> I began to suspect it was because of "culture fit" -- will this 35 year old introvert fit in at our frat house/office?

The job does not have to be a frat house office in order for a candidate to fail the culture fit. Unfortunately many programmers think programming is 100% writing code, when often times it is more about communication and relationships. If you were missing a certain technical skill what would you do? Now apply that same mindset to being a little less socially awkward. No one is saying you have to learn to be Dale Carnegie himself, but even just a small amount of people skills goes a long way.
I agree with other suggestions: do a proper double-blind test. Others mentioned temperature difference, but I'd also suggest coil whine as an alternative hypothesis - and it's known that many electronic devices emit audible noise that's picked up (and really uncomfortable to) small subset of the population, especially when under load.

It seems like the main issue here is the automated ticket generation from traffic cameras, not the yellow light timing. People generally police themselves in traffic out of self-interest for their own vehicles. Nanny cams meant to issue fines at every intersection are an egregious overreach.
During my time at University I've only met two Saudi students who were there to work hard and honestly learn. Great people both academically and personally. The rest of them passed by cheating and seemed to mostly be there to scam free college $ from their government.

If this small sample represents the best of their country they are fucked. They are in for some hard times.
Yes, and I think I am justified in doing so. React and JSX are everything shitty about pre-CSS web development, but with more JavaScript. Even if it wasn't Facebook tech I would still refuse to work with that shit.

> Often it seems to me that there are plenty of other motivations to run a company. The founders hire people who they like to hang out with, maybe same hobbies etc.

There are laws against employment discrimination, and I suggest to you most people aiming for "people who they like to hang out with with" will result in an outcome, intentional or not, of illegal discrimination.
In most countries, if you cross the line or enter the intersection while the light that applies to you is red, it is a violation. This means that unless the yellow light is long enough to account for approaching drivers' reaction times/distances and braking times/distances it can result in crash stops. Many lights in every country I've driven in have an insufficient yellow-light period given these considerations.
Random factoid of the day: A fictional memex machine is featured prominently in cstross laundry files.
You can buy a decent 'emergency' generator (aka high air pollution and noise) for ~ $500 sufficient to run most homes. Compared to cost of living in California, that is dirt cheap (a week or less of living expenses).

One problem with these emergency portable generators of course, is they lack safety components to stop them from catching fire. So we might end up with notable fires caused by generators used because PG&E shut off power to 'stop fires'. It shifts the liability to the consumer though, so PG&E is off the hook.

Few people really believed PG&E was going to do this, so a lot of people haven't purchased equipment yet. We'll see how it shapes up long term.
Good Samaritan notifies owner of lost wallet via message hidden in bank deposits
That first article is published in a journal I’ve never heard of, studied a total of 27 mice, and has a strange study design that doesn’t consider random effects.
Maybe so, but I don’t read the original comment as a critique of centrist Democrats in particular. (I also don’t think centrist Democrats are alone in the gap between their professed values and their actual ones.)
There is even reason to think that newer modulations are safer precisely because they are more spread spectrum, with lower power and peak power at any particular frequency.

The towers are also spread more densely, with smaller cells and lower power, which also lowers peak exposure levels. For devices, just the fact they only have to transmit a short distance to a local tower tells you about the energy.

You are probably getting more cancer risk for stress hormones caused by the Instagram/Twitter on your phone than the electric field it generates, no matter how 'patterned' or polarised the field is.

> So it sounds like "leftist" is just a term you use for any democratic policy, not a subset?

No. The 1996 Democratic platform was quite right wing for example. And California Democrats’ policies on criminal justice were very much to the right.

> Like it's not just Sander's dems, its California which is not all that extreme (yet?)

I’m comparing states to each other, so I’m using “leftist” to indicate that California’s policies are further to the left compared to other states.
This happened to us. My wife orders a lot of dog treats and human snacks on subscribe and save. They sent a package of nearly expired nut snack bars.

About the "free market" approach: Medical care has what in economics is known as "zero price elasticity". That means that people have zero ability to refuse the product if the price is too high. In economics, its associated with market failure, because low price elasticity means providers make more money by raising prices than by competing with each other.

Some subsets of the health care industry have price elasticity and seem to work fine in the free market, such as Lasik and liposuction etc. But stuff that gets called medically necessary don't work in a market, there is an entire branch of economics dedicated to it: Health Care Economics. Ironically pioneered by an American, Kenneth Arrow. Won him a Nobel Prize.

I use the Notes app in iOS/OSX which has been getting insanely powerful in the last few years. Not only does it sync notes across devices, but indexes them for spotlight search anywhere. It also transcribes handwritten notes and makes them searchable, as well as scanned documents like receipts and business cards. Attaching photos, hand-drawn diagrams, tables, checklists and formatted text are simple. Notes can be hierarchically organized into a folder structure (work, blog, 1:1s, ideas etc.) and locked for privacy (1:1s, performance reviews, holiday gifts etc.). They support sharing and basic collaborative editing too.

Notes seems so simple on the surface, but every time I use it I am delighted to find power-user features throughout.

My #1 feature request would be code blocks with syntax highlighting. It supports monospaced blockes for now. Perhaps even better would be if it would detect, accept and render markdown formatting.

Until then, a simple trick I use is: copy the RTF text from Notes into a GIST. It auto-converts to MD.
