> The point is, 1944 - 1991 is a HIGHLY unusual economic state

This part I agree with.

This part I absolutely do not. Perhaps the social mobility wouldn't be exactly the same, but surely we can do better than the current state of affairs? I wonder how many people could be elevated to comfortable middle class status with all the money hoarded so Jeff Bezos can have over 20 different extravagant homes?

And that's to say nothing for the cost of college going through the roof while conferring even less benefit to people's careers, stagnant wages, ever-rising taxes on the 99% since the IRS finds it difficult to audit the wealthy...
There were so many other things he could have said and not created this maelstrom – "Of course Mr. Khashoggi's murder was reprehensible and inexcusable, but we're told by the Crown Prince that it was a rogue operation, and we trust that's the case. If a member of our board were involved in this sort of heinous act, I would be asking for his or her resignation."

But he didn't, and squirmed with a few "well, you're obviously deeper in this than I am" indications that he wasn't well-prepared on this issue.

It's tough for a CEO to go from talking to the press about the tech behind their tech company to talking about everything else in the world – that's what the CEOs of conglomerates and oil companies spend decades of their career being groomed into.

Mozilla is free to implement Manifest v3, while preserving the webRequest API in its current state. Maintaining the blocking abilities of the webRequest API would not introduce any incompatibilities with Chrome extensions, because they simply would not use that part of the API.
Here's hoping it's not just another Hololens flash in the pan. I've been holding out hope for 5 years now that Apple will come in and do it right, and trigger another paradigm shift for computing akin to the mobile revolution. AR is absolutely going to be a game changing technology some day, but the current hardware is simply nowhere near what's needed for mass consumer adoption.
Good question. I do not know, I jut recall someone telling me that 5 once. It seems like it is in the right range.

I use Quickbooks self-employed: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/self-employed/ which imports from your bank account and exports to Turbotax (with free filing). It will remind you to pay quarterly taxes too.

If you use a separate business bank account (which you definitely should), it's very easy to set up rules to classify each transaction in their respective category for deductions so it's mostly set and forget. My only complaint is their invoice feature sucks so you still need to look for something else for that.

As a non-native speaker, I'm confused and irritated that the word "compare" is used in the meaning "equate". In math, I can compare any scalar value to any other scalar value; what I can't do is equate them. Is it indeed used incorrectly in this context, or am I missing something?

Wow, just to restate this conversation in a different way: the ceo of a major company would rather remind the world of the time their car _killed_ someone then condemn a murder by one of his investors.

Good on the journalist for asking tough questions and not letting him weasel out.

Other commentators are pointing out your gross flippancy about world capital and whatnot. I will say, when optimizing code, I take every 0.7% improvement I can get. As the world shifts to optimizing for CO2 emissions, every 0.7% that can be done soon and without capital investment is a no-brainer.

The fast ships are likely operating at inefficient speeds, which is only made possible by transporting premium cargo where the increased costs are absorbed by the ultimate higher prices of the goods. In a real sense, the world is paying too much by a psychological need for instant gratification.

Note that cargo ships have all sorts of negative externalities beyond CO2 emissions. For example, the studies that are coming out now on the impact of fine particulates... well, I’d short the Diesel engine all the way to $0. So while a carbon tax might be the best global win for all industries, this sounds like one that could be implemented tomorrow and have a real impact.
Isn't Google introducing this change upstream in Chromium? This means that it will affect downstream browsers, including Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, and a number of others[1]. The only way they will keep the old functionality is if they fork it and maintain it themselves going forward, which could potentially be made more difficult by further upstream changes made by Google. A few have vowed to do so[2], but Google has too much power controlling the upstream to guarantee they can continue it long-term.

Google has a stranglehold on the entire browser market through Chromium right now. Switching to non-Chromium-based browsers is a must.

> how many people could be elevated to comfortable middle class status with all the money hoarded so Jeff Bezos can have over 20 different extravagant homes?

More fundamentally: money is created through debt. Central banks print money to increase the money supply. This money is being used to buy assets to float up the stock and real estate markets. In other words, central banks are a form or corporate welfare for the rich. It doesn't have to be this way. We could print money and use it to build housing for those who can't afford it. That would also stimulate the economy. The problem is that we think of real estate as an investment, when housing is actually a fundamental need.

Ive increasingly been disappointed that there arent better infotainment roundups, or some kind of constantly updating dashboard of comparison.

To your point though, FCA might have something pretty similar to that 3rd party player. Their Uconnect 4 drops into a pretty wide variety of brands they own, I dont know if any car company still makes as many skus and variants as FCA does. Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat,Jeep, Lancia, Maserati, and Ram Trucks, with Peugeot and Citroën coming.

FCAs infotainment system consistently ranks highly in multiple roundups. Overall, European companies rank much higher than Japanese ones.

Freudian slips have better be avoided. I would like to think he's not such a horrible person, though.
Code cop. Naming standards would very consistent. If it is SSN, Ssn, or SocialSecurityNumber, it will be that way all across all databases of the same system. Rules would differ per system, because there are different best practices per system, which is what I would start with as there is far more expertise into those best practices than what I have. Rules would be equally enforced, but anyone would have the ability to request change.

Overall, where possible I rather not have a rule and only create them as needed. Once needed it is created and enforced consistently.

>How would you remediate brilliant jerks? How would you measure and incentivize working well with the rest of the team/company?

These are areas I'm not proficient in and thus I would first need more study.

One thing is that I don't really think there is a choice between two options, but that both options are the same. The only difference from social pressure is that the rule system is much more complex and not written down because people cannot tolerate facing the rule system once written. Imagine a law that says attractive people get less time in prison, would that stand? That women get less prison time? That whites get less prison time? Yet this is what happens when judges are free to given sentences and prosecutors are free to pick what charges to bring.

What I advocate is any rule must be written down, and thus any unfairness like the above must be faced and either codified and thus open for challenge or be done away with by removing the subjective application of a rule.
Nope. Automation is technology and so is transportation. Both can cause pollution but that's besides the point.

You can bundle many rule lists inside one extension. It's how 1Blocker works, and I did it myself for my own adblocking extension.

>the EU as a whole has at least as diverse climates as the US

It's laughable to talk about "the EU" as if it's in any way homogeneous. It's an economic union, not a country. We are talking about France and Germany, which are tiny and far less diverse in their climate than the US.

>I'm not even sure what to respond to the "needs" part

Perhaps you're unaware that there are places in the US that have frigid winters, and others that have debilitating summer heat. But please, tell us about how you don't need air conditioning in France. That fact is relevant to those in Arizona.

>Let's track back a bit and find out what exactly your argument against high quality German windows is.

My argument here is that it's ridiculous to think that we don't have or use "high quality windows" in North America because you once had friends over to your home that were impressed.
One of our GKE clusters suddenly went missing today (from the console as well as kubectl) and we were scared for some time, panicking how the cluster got deleted.

> I wonder how many people could be elevated to comfortable middle class status with all the money hoarded so Jeff Bezos can have over 20 different extravagant homes

I think this is ultimately the crux of the issue. Without rapid economic growth, the only way to make society rapidly more "fair" is to focus on redistribution. I'm actually not completely against the idea either. I can think of a number of institutions, like education, healthcare, and childcare (pre-k) that make a whole bunch of sense to make more "equitable". But I do believe we need to have a level sense about what is reasonable to expect. It's not ever going to be close to the levels we had in the second half of the twentieth century. If we go at it too aggressively, we're risking a lot.
Strange, it takes the home page 7 seconds to load with the progress bar, despite weighing less than 1 MB.
Fascinating.

Having been a "talented poor" person I can tell you that I have never had even close to the kinds of opportunities my less intelligent but better funded colleagues have had. It's unpopular as a sentiment, but it is true--the elite protect the elite and certain factions of the elite hold all the real power and control in the US. The only hope an outsider has it to either be incredibly lucky or marry well. That's it. Exceedingly few people can "work their way to the top" as the system is designed purposefully to prevent that sort of rise.

Also, it wasn't me who put all those idiotic barriers in place such as SAT tests and other such nonsense. I have always thought it was pure nonsense, make work, give smart people hurdles to have to jump over so that they never actually get anywhere at all. The pursuit of credentials in place of actual achievement. I have fallen victim to it myself.

It would be nice to say that I have gotten somewhere in life but while I have achieved some material wealth, the real wealth has always been kept safely out of reach. What Middle Class Americans have is an illusion of wealth where the goal posts are continuously moved just out of reach. Inflation, health insurance costs, cost of education, environmental guilt, all used to control us and send us down useless rat holes from which there is no escape.

One doesn't have to be a socialist to remark that the wealthy 1% (or .01%, if you prefer) are pushing their limits with the rest of us. Because when some 40% of Americans earn something in the range of $12-$15/hr, what sense does anything make in a nation where government spending dollar figures are rounded to the nearest $100Million?

I'm no collectivist, I abhor collectivism, and the poor are sold on Marxist ideas the implications of which they cannot even fathom. I, however, and not swayed. What I would like to see is actual Capitalism, where "too big to fail" ceases to exist. Then we will not see such massive aberrations and wealth disparities. You only get there by de-constructing big government so that it can't be weaponized by wealth concentrators. When we do that, there could be other, less desirable effects. I'm comfortable in the belief that big government could at least be rolled back to the size it was in the 1980s or 1970s and we would not suffer for it.

Not only Silicon Valley. I struggle to see the relation to the Trump administration here, but in any case they are deeply in the Saudis' pockets as well, same as with any other administration that came before. To paint the SA regime and the US leadership to be somehow in opposition to one another doesn't really make sense. The cold hard fact is that they need each other and act accordingly.
The saudis kill people, I kill people, we are good friends and we both face no consequences for the deaths.
As long as apple keeps their image as the company keeping up with the best tech (doesn’t matter if it’s true or not), it’ll be huge for them to release anything. It’ll make others jump in and bring a lot more money into the industry.

The AirPods are a good first step in showing they can make small, lightweight devices that are easy to use. The glasses will probably need a charging case in the same way. Also, they are keeping their high end phones a bit overpowered for normal smartphone usage which means they can use that extra power to do the required rendering. This allows them to offload it all from the glasses to the phone. I believe we are some time off from standalone glasses.

How does that make any sense? In the real world we have resource constraints, so positing something like "there won't be any chickens" as a moral loss doesn't make sense, we'll have something else instead since the resources to raise chickens were freed up.

If you're throwing resource constraints out the window the question should be why we're not raising 1 billion blue whales for food in addition to of cows.

After all they're smarter, and if you're going to follow this logic that these animals ultimately benefit from their numbers being raised as a result of food production that should go for all of them. Having 1 billion city-sized aquariums isn't an issue if we're assuming we have infinite resources.

But we don't, in fact that's the entire reason we ended up with these particular species as food animals, they're the most efficient relatively speaking, not necessarily the tastiest.
