An anecdotal perspective: I am doing blockchain-related innovation work in the B2B software industry and often interact with academia and public institutions (research funding providers), as well as with other software vendors. Our problem is that academia and funding providers are way too happy to write papers and fund work on blockchain, while many of the more reasonable software vendors are very careful to not position themselves as blockchain hype idiots. What I see is that we sometimes have to cater to public expectations and at least do some prototyping around blockchain, just to take part in the discussion and to have a clearly articulated position on why blockchain is not a game changer for our particular part of the industry (even if it will take off, it is just one of many technologies in an application stack). I think organizations that embrace the hype a bit more hire some developers to do blockchain-related work to be able to claim that their products are blockchain-based. However, I think the amount of positions that serious, stable companies have open for blockchain developers are negligible. For now, blockchain should be ignored, by all practical means, by anyone who scouts for technologies to learn to increase future career perspectives.
Recall reading a 70s novel called Man Plus, which was mainly about making a cyborg capable of surviving Mars surface as part of a space program, also from the perspective of said man.
We can see the numbers for ourselves. Do a quick search on SO jobs, linkedIn and angellist to see which companies are hiring for blockchain stack expertise. From what I've seen it's a 1:5 ratio.
That is the structure of right wing politics. It creates disorder which it promises to resolve, but it is a vicious cycle.

For some reason now I have a reply button again. I want to use it to tell you that I find your suggestion based on the remarks I made here very rude. The driving skill you infer on my part probably says more about your interpretation of my comment than on my actual ability to navigate a vehicle safely. That said, I detest cars and wish cities were free of them. THAT said, I never posted this to take any stance on the "global speed limit on the Autobahn"-topic, so this will be it for me.

How about this? Write your bug report. Sign the bug report with your private key. Anonymously publish the bug report, the signature and the public key. Later when required, prove that you wrote the bug report by using your private key to sign a new message or a challenge message sent by any challenger.
What does that prove? The person can tamper with the recording before publishing it on the blockchain.

The limiting feature of blockchains is that they cannot integrate with real world (i.e. non-blockchain) data without trusting the data provider. And at that point, the key feature of blockchains (no need to trust anyone) is completely lost.

It does. In the recent cars I've driven (no SUVs though), the sensors do trigger at a distance you already do see from the vehicle, and the warning gets far more aggressive the closer you get. It even turns on the camera, if you're <30 kph and it's in its probable FOV (i.e. rear sensors).

No its not. This is a notion that vice president has and NASA would like it. But they will absolutly not get the money from congress. And even more so, Congress only cares about blowing money up Boings ass and literally nothing else.

So any architecture that would actually work and be reasonable quick to deploy, will not be allowed. Congress with force NASA to use lots old technology and force them to use Boing, LM, Northrop. This has just reasently been something were congress published its 'plan' (ie, plan to force 10 billion to Boing and Lockeed).

The reason why Mondragon was able to grow to its current size is their credit union Caja Laboral. Under the dictatorship of Francisco Franco "people's savings banks" were allowed to offer higher interest rates than competing banks. Therefore local citizens would deposit their funds in Caja Laboral, which would fund more cooperative businesses.

There's nothing special about the region or the culture, if you artificially favor a certain type of business structure then you will get more it. Mondragon is a classic case of incentives at work.

> Well, there’s countries in the world today that have implemented the economic systems you’re advocating for.

What economic system do you think I am advocating for?

I'm pretty sure whatever response you have in your head, is wrong. I opened this thread simply "pay employees better" and have since shown how I am a free-market person, yet you've gone Chávez on me.

But! I will still humor your questions.

> If you can’t think of a single one you’d even consider living in (aside from as say, an upper class foreigner), then what does that tell you about your ideas?

I actually did this where the cost of living was higher (thus moving down in class). I moved from low-cost USA to high-cost Switzerland. And yet it's a form of capitalism that is socially responsible and gives everyday society a pretty damn good quality of life in comparison.

> I’m calling this out as an opportunity for you to put some more thought into your ideas, instead of jumping to the conclusion that people who challenge them are personally attacking you.

This is rich. I'm asking you to consider that people that disagree with you aren't idiots and are putting in that thought into their ideas (making your whole demand of yours, a reflection of your lack of charity!), such as uprooting their whole damn life to move to another country, instead of creating a caricature of that person and then making a bunch of dismissive uncharitable opening comments to a very simple "pay employees better".

The fact that I have to say "I assure you I did put serious thought into this" should be a red flag to how you engage in "thoughtful" internet debate. It reeks of Reddit's awful culture, where people think "I can make logical arguments from facts. I have facts. This means my argument must be correct and others that disagree must be wrong."

The world is a lot greyer than that.

Yes. The UK encountered a variant of this with its project to extend the life of the Nimrod recon aircraft, which were built on airframes that had essentially been designed in the 1950s. The aircraft all being individual meant that a conventional waterfall project to build new parts and retrofit them encountered huge cost overruns. Someone described it as more of an "aircraft reenactment society" than a viable aircraft for the 21st century. One caught fire in the air and the project was eventually abandoned.
That's kind of like I do it [1], I only have a RSS file and the mp3 uploaded to the server. I send that RSS link to that one iTunes service so it indexes the RSS file so that all the podcast apps which use their API for their search can find my podcast and subscribe to the RSS file on my server and download the mp3's from my server.

For the gear, I went fairly cheap, I got a Zoom H5 [2], which is super small, light and portable and two lavalier mics, one for me and one for the person I interview.

I then upload the two WAV files to Auphonic [3] and they add the jingles to it, clean up the sound, normalize it and let me download the mono mp3 which is really small but good quality, which I then upload to my server.

The whole workflow is surprisingly easy and fast. The most time I spend on finding people to talk to and trying to arrange a meeting at a specific time and place.

I was left-handed until about 4, but I don't remember it. The right-ies forced me into their cult.

It's kind of moot because my handwriting looks like I'm having a seizure writing on a washer on spin-cycle in an earthquake. It also crawls up or down vertically over time, and looks just awful. Base lines are of no help to me at all. And then there's this Turkish artist friend of mine who can write at exactly an 60° angle freehand on a rough wall, backwards and in a mirror-image, perfectly beautifully (he does interior commercial work to pay the bills). :sigh:
And how would you prove your encrypted message existed beforehand, and that you didn't just backdate the message after the discovery has been made public?

For that you need to publish your encrypted message that's somehow connected with a timestamp. If you can you might be able to get it included in a journal or a newspaper (which is what Robert Hook did in 1660), or use a trusted third party that verifies your timestamp.

Embedding a hash of your message in the blockchain is another way, which is arguably easier, more secure and trustless.

Sure, but the question is "why did Google do Android?", and so this doesn't at all answer that question. In 2007 when Google started to see Apple as an existential threat, Google was already doing Android, so changing its motivation isn't a big step. But in 2003-2005, why did Google start doing Android in the first place? And why is the provided reason always Apple, when that doesn't make any chronological sense?
A doctorate is a title bestowed by an institution. One way to get a doctorate is to write a lengthy monograph on an acceptable topic and pass some courses. Given his work, I find it odd anyone would be offended by the use of this title.
Agreed, however throwing out Silverlight, XNA and coming up with a .NET dialect (designed by WinDev) wasn't called for.

The WP7 stacks could have been improved to work on the new kernel.

That was the typical move from the WinDev vs DevTools that keep coming up since .NET exists.

Interesting tangential fact: Ford Motor Company was not Henry Ford's first automotive company. He previously started the (less descriptive) Henry Ford Company (his second automotive venture) which was bought and turned into the Cadillac brand.[1] Cadillac would eventually become General Motors.

For now. But we've seen this game before. When a critical mass switches to a closed ecosystem, you're either going to be forced to move with the herd (because most of your podcasts will move and new podcasts will start-up exclusively within the walled garden), or you'll be left behind.
Windows Phone died because Google played dirty. They basically prevented Windows Phone from having decent Google apps such as youtube/google maps. They also did user agent blocks to ensure those web applications didn't work on the phone.

I find these sort of articles incredibly short-sighted and little more than a reminiscing of the "good old times". Those times are not coming back. The last sentence is particularly comical in its detachment from reality.

In the age of the network, the notion of family to say nothing about our notion of self, is a cultural relic fast on the road to extinction. Decoherence and disintegration is all around us. We will adapt but we need to look forward, towards a new kind of synthesis, not behind.
I always skip the ads too and to be honest I even have unsubscribed from many podcasts when it was too much advertising on them. I think most of the podcasts I listen to don't have ads anymore because they're from Europe and you can easily send them small amounts of money if they post a IBAN.

Good luck getting a non-tech person listening to a podcast by supplying them with an RSS link. I don't mean to be snarky, and I hate it from the bottom of my heart, but it's the sad reality.

Apple doesn't host podcasts, especially not exclusively. In the contrary, they offer a API for free software podcast players to search for podcasts and point them to the RSS feed for subscribing and downloading the audio file.
