not only tuition. In the UK, students got a grant to cover living expenses as well as free tuition. This ended in 1988 (incidentally the year I went to university), to be replaced with student loans. Boomers are the generation born from 1940-1965, so the youngest boomers turned 23 when the student grant system finished in '88. Exactly the age when a person in a four-year course (and a gap year) finishes university. It's not a coincidence.

I'm curious if anyone here can answer this: what part of flight consumes the most energy/fuel? Is it the take-off? Landing? Cruising? So would a hybrid model plane make sense to use jet fuel or equivalent for the most energy consuming part, then electric batteries for the least intensive parts?
A free market should regulate itself.

A company like Facebook can regulate the market.

I have a cousin that used took the max for his college loans and then whatever he had left after tuition he used for trips to Japan, Europe, etc every summer and lots of fancy restaurants and clothes. College loans are insane right now.
I would be fine with UBI or any other form of welfare if I could personally opt out of it and not receive that welfare AND not pay any taxes for it.
Yeah I read the same threads - that’s what I was referring to.
I challenged myself to go a year without flying for climate reasons. I thought I would hate it. Work, family, and lifestyle depended on it.

It turns out it was one of the best things I've done. Experience taught me what I never could have imagined -- how much my life improved. Like dropping Facebook on steroids. What I expected to miss I got more without flying, plus improved relationships, community, and connection.

A few months in I decided to go for a second year. I'm 4.5 years in now. I may fly again, I don't know, but I want to less and less.

EDIT: Amazingly, my TEDx talk on this experience went live minutes ago: https://youtu.be/sTYiHr1lu10.
Also, that painting you linked to as being "powerful" was painted by William-Adolphe Bouguereau. He painted in the style of Italian Renaissance painters, though he's French and lived in the mid-1800's. I guess that's cultural appropriation. He also married one of his students, which of course is a big no-no nowadays, since he was a man in power over her. Looks like you can't like this painting any more now.

You see how dumb it is to apply 2019 political correctness to past history?

I'm at the tail end of the boomer generation (although I prefer to think of myself as men-x). When I left school only about 7% of my cohort went to university. Most of us didn't get a free university education, we didn't get any university education.

Not to mention that since the placebo effect is so real, it can be unethical to explain that to someone. When my mother was going through chemo and radiation and started buying healing crystals as well, I supported her beliefs in that (she was also doing all the doc recommended stuff).

You can't really use that term to describe a situation that is well understood and is widely recognized to be a problem (not exactly a Kafka staple). It's simply awful law, which is bad enough.

I mean you still can, it just costs slightly more expensive than it otherwise would have? And instead of selling 1 used part you now sell 2?

I have two main side projects I am working on right now- one would be a SaaS product in which I would just be using Sentry as a tool- that would still be allowed under the BSL- however, I am leary of using non-open source code like the BSL because the BSL does not grant the community the freedom to fork it and use that fork as an open source project (Any fork of Sentry going forward would either need to start from old code or be under the BSL license and the new community would be at a disadvantage as no one could use the new product to offer an APM service. This removes the primary motivation for the maintainer (in this case Sentry the company) to remain benevolent.

My other side project is a PaaS which I hope to release as Open Source, which relies on several open source products itself. I also hope to offer a hosted version of this product. It is still a very young idea, with some code written for it, trying to get a proof of concept done. I had considered using Sentry for an APM tool in this product- but now if I go that route I will have to fork the pre-BSL version of the Sentry code and maintain it myself...

If my PaaS is successful, I do plan to contribute back to the open source tools it will be based on, both in terms of development and financially, as well as promoting them prominently! I am not looking to cut anyone out by providing a low value-add service and keeping all the profits for myself!
The difference between a Tesla and an rs200 accelerating like that is the Tesla does it with zero drama. An rs200 Is not a daily driver.
They didn't have my favorite one: using questions instead of statements For example, "Why did you do it this way?" instead of "Here's why you should do it a different way". (or "have you considered...", "what are the benefits of A vs B", "is this going to meet this requirement or avoid that problem")

This approach has helped me because

a) It feels less aggressive (more like you're working through it together),

b) It prods them into thinking through what they missed, and

c) It prods for information that I might be missing. I might actually discover that I'm wrong and the other person considered more information.
> Hmmm number 3 doesn't seem like a negative or counter-intuitive.

This is the core of the problem: Some people like the idea of robotic, semi-scripted conversations according to a well-defined set of rules. They think that if there's a rulebook, they can predict how people will respond to them. Or worse, they think they can control how people react and respond.

Yes, we should put some constraints around egregious communication issues as well as provide general guidelines, but the important thing is to let people interact naturally within those loose constraints.

> I feel like software devs (in bay area startup world, or FAANG) are usually a certain demographic and they usually come from a place of privilege where they've never had to do the mental work that's involved in communicating effectively across diverse demographics.

It's a fallacy, though. You can't create perfect rules for human conversation. Everyone needs to build those interpersonal and conversational skills, even if it's somewhat painful along the way. The basic skills can be guided with simple rules and guidelines, but the problem comes when you try to control too much of the conversation or set the constraints so tightly that it's a minefield to navigate.

> 2) The CoC became a tool for power plays. For a few bad apples, the CoC became a list of gotchas that they could use as a power play against others. At one point we had someone reading every Slack conversation and code review just to call out possible CoC violations (remember, this includes things like using emojis in code review) so they could call other people out on their violations. Substantiative conversations moved to private messages or in-person conversations. Not healthy. Partially solved by adding a CoC rule about minding your own business and explaining healthy ways to share the CoC with others.

I've seen this happen too. Not for code reviews, but for process rules in general. IMO the key issue is that rules can't be used as a substitute for good judgement, and bad judgement needs to be an explicitly fire-able performance metric.

Unfortunately, it's really hard to make sure "good judgement" is educated and constantly re-evaluated, and not just whatever baggage the person carries (misconceptions at best, outright ageism/sexism/racism at worst). From the perspective of leadership, this is a tough but solvable problem: read about people management and sociology diversely and avidly, establish actually anonymous lines of feedback for ground level employees to upper management, and set a precedent for firing jerks promptly. From the perspective of an employee facing bad management, good luck fixing that. It's probably easier to just find a new job.

What doesn't make sense is to use number of passengers as the figure of merit, here. Technically, that's no limit at all. Aircraft scale up just fine from 2 people to 20 to 200 people.[0] "Power" is even less of a concern: fundamentally, electric motors are just as high performance as turbine engines.

The appropriate figure of merit is range and specific energy (i.e. useful energy stored per unit mass), and that IS a limitation, but range of up to 500 miles is feasible for pure electric using existing batteries and structure and aerodynamic efficiency tech. Double or quadruple that is possible with cleverness and more exotic approaches. Even long-haul is possible with certain approaches to pure electric flight (either lithium-air, which has just as high theoretical useful energy as something like gasoline, or staging).

The only way "large aircraft" or "high power" is a limitation is just the speed at which things can be certified. Large passenger aircraft cost billions to bring to market, so companies are super conservative about it. But this isn't a fundamental technical limit of electric flight.

[0]Technically, there are structural scaling laws which detract from efficiency as you get bigger, but they don't become strong until you're very large... And they're countered by perhaps even more important positive Reynolds Number scaling effects, i.e. your lift to drag improves as your scale increases.

There's a better electrically driven solution that takes advantage of the fact that take-off and climb-out requires the most power.

Maximum power requirements come from take-off and climb-out, so the engine size is designed around the max take-off power. This means that the engine is over-designed and less-efficient for the majority of the flight.

By implementing a hybrid engine, the gas-powered component and the electric powered component work together to provide take-off power requirements. By the time the aircraft reaches cruising altitude, the batteries are dead, and the gas-powered component works alone. This allows the engine to be designed for the cruise power requirements, which results in a much more efficient engine. UTC is currently experimenting with this concept.

>Whats a good language that shows off the style you're suggesting?
javascript.

What you describe sounds like native UI work since forever before javascript. "Don't block the main thread" and all that.

Javascript is diferent in that it's a single-thread with an event loop. Synchronous functions execute until they end. Asynchronous functions are handled by the event loop which "loops" between the pool and runs each one for some time, then switches to other, concurrenly (think round robin). What happens when the runtime is running an asynchronous function and inside it reaches a synchronous one? it stops round-robin and executes this function until it ends.

What OP wants is a language like javascript but without having to write code distinguishing synchronous and asynchronous functions and instead having some other tool to tell the runtime when a function is synchronous or asynchronous without having to write it again.
I was just thinking about this the other day. I wonder how much Tesla spends on LTE connectivity to their fairly large fleet of cars - (especially given they just recently included Netflix / Youtube over in-car LTE at no cost to the end-user). If these receivers are capable of working in a military aircraft at a high rate of speed I'd bet we see Tesla use Starlink for in-car connectivity once the arrays are mature.

I only know them from category theory and abstract algebra. You could think of them as polymorphic constructions from some set of assumptions. As an example, given some type of elements, the type of lists of those elements is a monoid (the free monoid) on those elements.
> if someone is born in Saudi Arabia I can make a highly accurate claim -without knowing anything else about them- that they are going to be muslims

What percentage of Saudis are totally convinced Islam is true, as opposed to simply paying lip service to it out of social and legal compulsion? Very hard question to answer, even if someone says "Yes", some of those "Yes" will be honest, others driven by fear. (In Saudi Arabia, atheism and apostasy from Islam both carry the death penalty.)

Where you are born very often determines labels, but there is a big difference between a convinced/devout believer, and a person for whom their religion is just a cultural/ethnic group membership marker.

There are also two short stories, available in the collection Eye. The Dune Universe proved more popular, but I think ConSentiency would have been more movie-and-television friendly. There's plenty of space in there for rubber-mask aliens.
Pish! These are all amateurs compared to King Zog of Albania with 55 confirmed assassination attempts. My favourite being an attempt on his life while visiting Vienna. Having escaped injury in the attack, King Zog pulled his personal sidearm and shot at the attackers as they retreated.

By all accounts he was a bit of a jerk, but he dressed well and wasn't afraid to fire back, so you have to give him some credit.

the vast debts incurred by the US education system are a new thing for this generation.

But I was mostly speaking of my experience in the UK, where the boomers paid no tuition fees and got a grant to cover living expenses. GenX generally paid no or little fees. Millenials are being saddled with more and more cost.
I my experience, at least for an individual, I think saying no is exactly the opposite of dangerous. I’ve been contracting exclusively for 10 years and said yes about 6 times and no dozens or hundreds of times. As long as you say no frankly, with a reason, and offer some names of people who can help, people are happy with you and will more often than not ask again in the future. Saying no, especially for bad fit, is one of the most important parts of success I’ve had in consulting.

I mean, if the FBI drops by for a chat, encouraging them to stick to the living room is probably not unusual. But if you're being asked for a document present in your house that's going to take 10+ minutes to find, inviting the agents along or bringing the relevant folders/computer/whatever to where they are sounds pretty reasonable.

Not necessary, which is obvious from the agents agreeing to this request. But maybe a good way to forestall concerns like "what if they think I'm forging the document right now?"

Philosophically, even if there is no greater effect than transfer of wealth from young to old, pretty much everyone who is now young will one day be old.

"Among the savage nations of hunters and fishers, every individual who is able to work is more or less employed in useful labour, and endeavours to provide, as well as he can, the necessaries and conveniencies of life, for himself, and such of his family or tribe as are either too old, or too young, or too infirm, to go a-hunting and fishing. Such nations, however, are so miserably poor, that, from mere want, they are frequently reduced, or at least think themselves reduced, to the necessity sometimes of directly destroying, and sometimes of abandoning their infants, their old people, and those afflicted with lingering diseases, to perish with hunger, or to be devoured by wild beasts. Among civilized and thriving nations, on the contrary, though a great number of people do not labour at all, many of whom consume the produce of ten times, frequently of a hundred times, more labour than the greater part of those who work; yet the produce of the whole labour of the society is so great, that all are often abundantly supplied; and a workman, even of the lowest and poorest order, if he is frugal and industrious, may enjoy a greater share of the necessaries and conveniencies of life than it is possible for any savage to acquire."

Yes, financial regulation is hard. People are always trying to game it. Unfortunately there are really good reasons to avoid ex post facto laws. So you have the cat and mouse game where people find a loophole, exploit it, and it gets fixed. It gives the appearance of people "getting away with it". Overall the system works, and - almost by definition - you just hear about the exceptions. The solution isn't to give up.
