This is only really true of marketing campaigns, and even then only in some instances. In certain kinds of marketing (e.g. direct campaigns), there may be downside risks to casting too wide a net beyond just cost vs profit.

It's also important to understand that these data aren't just used for shotgun marketing campaigns, they're also used in highly targeted applications. For example, if you give a company a small amount of information about yourself, for example through a insurance or financial services "estimate" page, that company has very good reasons for wanting as much (and as accurate) data about you as possible. The two biggest reasons are:

1. If they're smart, they're running models to associate those and other things with purchasing behavior. Notwithstanding the fact that they need to stay on top of the model's accuracy, having information about you that is too incomplete or too inaccurate can really fuck up their shit.

2. In domains where customers are extremely profitable (again, e.g. insurance and financial services), it can likewise be extremely expensive to acquire the data needed for robust modeling, even dirty data.

In both of these cases, they do very much care "about having data about 'you' in particular".
Has to agree to what? I thought reviews were between the reviewer (host/guest) and the platform, and that the reviewed party can only see it after they submit their own review.

In my case, there was not even a chance to write a review, not that I wrote a review and it didn't appear anywhere.

It seems that Airbnb's policy effectively hides the worst reviews (ones where the guest is moved to another unit and the host terminates the stay in a way that prevents a review from being possible), which contributes to the 'grade inflation' that we see in Airbnb ratings.

>I have demonstrated precisely how it is not zero sum, using the iPhone example.

My claim is that capitalism accumulates wealth with a small percentage of the population who then end up running the country as an oligarchy. Your iPhone example does not in any way contradict that.

>You are mixing definitions here. Capitalism means private ownership, and what you've described there is government control.

No, I've described how capitalists subvert the government to the interests of the rich oligarchy produced via the system of capitalism.

>Your argument for it being mythic also mises the mark. Cheating, lying and stealing are illegal under Capitalism.

That's the whole point, cheating, lying, and stealing are all effective means of being competitive under capitalism. Since making profit is the sole metric for success, these behaviors are inherently encouraged by the system.

>The 4th citation is completely false, as it considers non-capitalist countries capitalist.

False, the study clearly explains its methodology and the definition for capitalist countries.

>In that list, half the countries are "Mostly Unfree" or "Repressed" according to the Index of Economic Freedom[0].

The discussion is whether capitalism improves quality of life, and the study clearly shows that it's false across the board.

Meanwhile, I fundamentally disagree with your definition of freedom. A system that forces people to sell vast majority of their lives simply in order to survive is a form of slavery. It takes an incredibly dim mind to primarily conceive of freedom in terms of consumerism.

I won't repeat the other comments, but I'll note that you can make the additional, uglier step to get the results the first author expects by (as suggested) treating the assignment as a pointer to the object and rendering the object immutable.

const myObject = Object.freeze({
myValue: "Something",
});

The problem with that is `Object.freeze` doesn't act on nested objects, so you usually have to have some other method/macro to do that for you. You might be able to do that with decorators in TS.

It works on Object and Array types, but not on other primitive types. That part is frustrating. It would certainly be nice to have a single method for rendering any value immutable, whether it was the initial assignment or a built-in.
Looks really cool. Sounds like a similar approach could be used to render audio waveforms. I wonder why a project like this one [1] decided to use server side waveform generation instead.

1: https://waveform.prototyping.bbc.co.uk/
A solution I prefer is Rust's where the immutable binding is default "let x" and you opt-in with a modifier to make it mutable "let mut x".

It just makes sense for the immutable case to be default by design instead of just by developer habit.

"var" vs "val" always were too similar for me.
So yeah the restaurant or restaurant group doesn't have that great of a profile, it is built by companies like liveramp who get data from tens of thousands of sources and pool it into their own graph + audience data. Then they license it back out to those same companies. FB/Google and Oracle (crosswise) probably have the best identity graphs and are on par with what the original comment was describing. (I used to work at oracle on their audience products)

Liveramp is b2b and definitely won't support anything you want to do with them, but there are some comically bad tools (haven't been updated and are purposefully inaccurate) that let you check what data pools you're currently in.

On the island where live, the local fishermen had a below normal haul and the co-op was not paying well per pound, so 2019 was already a bad year. I also understand that many of the fishermen have extended themselves for larger boats and more traps. With the decreased demand, these things will add up to lost boats/homes/livelihoods. Without a doubt, this will have an impact beyond the immediate fishing industry.
Can you think of some innovation that might replace review systems in the same way that refrigeration replaced ice transportation? This seems more like a cycle where review systems will be nice until they inevitably get gamed, at which point some new company will come out with expertly-curated reviews and recommendations, but then that company will sell out and compromise their curation, at which point the new crowd-sourced review website will take over. Ad infinitum.

I suppose you can come up with ideas like AI curation or spam prevention, or some decentralized reputation system. Those sound pretty wild, but hey, I reckon refrigeration would have sounded pretty wild too.
Why are all these companies giving data to FB? What are they getting in return? I've looked at this page and they don't mention benefits to businesses at all.
Funnily enough I just got an example of this from a friend who is trying DDG this week.

Her example query that did better on Google than DDG:

> why did robinhood go down feb 29 2020

What I would search for the same question that does better on DDG:

> robinhood down

She's 24 and I'm 29 so it's possible that difference is real, people who are younger may be tailoring searches in a way that benefits Google (in which case they may not benefit as much from DDG or really would have to change behavior).

That's BS. Even if you don't have an FB account, they can link all the offline places you've been to and purchases you've made through all this data uploaded by merchants.

This data can be sold or leaked. And is readily accessible to governments.
They cannot tie back impressions as they only deliver those on their platforms, they dont’t have an exchange like Google. If you are talking about third party identifier online syncs, any decent ad blocker will stop those. Offline syncs break after time. Data policies don’t allow you to keep anything older than 13 months.
I believe there are fair ways to extract value from what already exists by creating a better version in a competitive market.

I have a feeling that the EARN IT act will pass based on that it so cleverly disguises it's ability to ban end-to-end encryption... I imagine most elected officials will hear something like this:

Elected official: "Hmm, it actually sounds like this will help the children!"

Maybe it's just me shrug, but I have little faith in our elected officials to parse out the ramifications to encryption based on how the act is written.

Cars (and cameras) are even more complicated because of prestige and reputation influencing price so greatly. Hyundai and Buick end up as two of the best values right now because nobody wants a used Buick. Cameras have a similar but different thing going on where most people think they need a "DSLR" to take professional pictures, and they buy something three times as big as they need because they dont want to "downgrade" to a mirrorless.

Obviously branding and status play a factor in many purchases, but the larger ecosystem / maintenance agreement ones are a different magnitude. Buying a camera is buying into a camera ecosystem, and buying a car is both a product and its serviceability. The Buick can be greatly reliable, but if its perception is that of something less reliable, you pay for perception not reality.

Great question. We are still trying to figure that out.

We've consulted with multiple lawyers and therapists to try to fully understand the situation.

Two guesses so far:

1) When he "offered" to take over the company, he said he would fire me and keep my cofounder running sales. This whole ordeal also coincidentally started a couple of days after my cofounder said she would be stepping down as CEO (even though he had previously told her he would extend the note). We have the impression he wants to "own" my cofounder somehow (according to an expert in psychopaths that we consulted with, the investor fits the profile - my cofounder is also very pretty and she's had to deal with stalkers multiple times in the past)

2) After the conflict started, we found out this investor apparently had defrauded some people to fund his own company (he currently has open lawsuits about that). If this is true, he might be projecting, believing maybe we did the same to him (which we did not)

But those are just guesses. I wish he would just pick up the phone and we could talk to reach some sort of agreement to end this madness.

Honestly, I like lobster but the thought of having to eat it twice a week (reg the comment above) makes me nauseous. Some things are much better in moderation.
My case was weird, I always wanted to have a computer. When I was 7 I got to see computer first time, saw few things in basic and logo at school (not even elementary) totally fascinated me. Love it, like wow I type using keyboard and it shows on computer thats so amazing. I would hypothesize that each key must have some sort of signal/signature that makes computer identify them. I still remember LET A=5 LET B=6 LET C=A+B and then C's value would be 11. Teacher taught us to draw rectangle in logo. After that when I was 11 I got my hands on MS visual c++ 2006 or smthng, totally loved it. Didnt go as far as pointers but had pretty much covered all that and Totally loved it. Sister would code in C++ and I was amazed to see how similar they were (didnt knew c++ was super set to C) Wanted to learn java php js by 12-13 years of age. Started using ubuntu 12.04 hahaha. Linux commandline was very good different from cmd and totally awesome. Started reading hacking books and realised this is what I want to do.
Currently I am still learning, I aint the sharpest tool but I can atleast think in computer terms.

I am curious if there are other YC founders in the crowd -- did you find the in-person part of Demo Day very helpful, or did more happen online before/after?
Yes, tests are specific to specific viruses (or classes of them).

Yes, testing can be done on massive scales.
Why is it amusing? Do you find the amount of abstraction between the CPU and a browser similarly amusing? That judgement seems arbitrary. The reason why an abstraction is created is because it's sometimes helpful to have complexity managed automatically if full control of the complexity is not necessary for your needs, your reaction seems to suggest "kubernetes doesn't need to be so complex", but I am not sure if you really believe that.

I can understand the "kubernetes may not be the best engineering decision for your needs" argument, but that's a different argument from kubernetes is too complex.

It's not that I want to read all the decks first and then watch all the pitches, it's that I want to look at the decks in order to decide which pitches to watch. S19 demo day had 197 companies. I don't know how long the pitches were (I didn't go) but if each one was 5 minutes that is 16 hours worth of pitches without a break. I'm not capable of maintaining focus at a presentation for much more than an hour or two at a time. If my attention wavers at the wrong moment during a pitch I might miss something important.

If I can look at a deck, then I can do two things that I can't do during a pitch. First, I can close my eyes and take a deep breath for a minute without missing anything. And second, I can see right away that, for example, this company is in a sector that I am not focused on (because I don't know anything about it) and so I am not going to invest in it even if it looks like a great opportunity. I am an individual investor with a very narrow focus (I look for companies in particular technical niches) so I can eliminate 80-90% of opportunities just by knowing the market segment they're in. A company might be well positioned to revolutionize (say) fashion design, but I'm not going to invest in it because I know absolutely nothing about fashion design, and I don't invest in things I don't understand. With a deck I can figure this out an order of magnitude faster than if I have to sit through a whole pitch.

Thanks for sending this my way, I hadn't seen this before. This program appears to support some of the ephemera for tabletop game worlds, which is quite useful, but not directly what I'm after (creating the maps themselves).

This one appears to support uploading your own maps, but unless someone has a hookup on crazily cheap on-demand RPG map generation, I will still need to make the maps myself, at least based on the patreon page provided.

The argument that you should always tip food service ~20% is generally based on the claim that "quality signal mechanism" is not actually the intent of the tipping system, but merely an excuse (that was perhaps true at some point in the past) to justify legally paying workers low wages and artificially reducing the sticker price of food.
I'm not sure what either link clarify.

The first link is someone confusing reassignment mutability with value mutability, a common beginner mistake when they read the byline of "const". It's like reading a rant about how { ...obj } only does a shallow clone and thus "doesn't do anything and we all know it" because you can still modify `obj` to modify the new object.

The second link, a tweet, gives no reasoning.

My first manager was an ex coder who I remember for two things. One of them was that he would constantly lament giving up development for management. That has been hanging around me like a spectre ever since.

I know a few things. I know that some aspects of our development strategy are not under my control, and there's little I can do besides beg and cajole. I know that line managers don't have much more control over that process, and that if you get any higher in the org then you won't even see code let alone touch it.

I also know, through my career and volunteer work, that I can manage about 6 people sustainably. And that pigeonholes me into line manager where I get none of the things I want.

And because of that, I've barely gazed at the grass on that side of that fence, let alone yearned for it. I'll continue to do tech lead and mentoring work and the major changes from here on out will be the kind and reach of the projects I associate with, not my status within those projects.

That's a sample too short, a lot of that can be the momentum carried over from whatever you have been doing previously. You have to understand that as a carb/sugar eater, you may have effectively destroyed your body to the point when it's much harder for it to digest nutrients from food (e.g. fatty liver). And/or you may have a starting diabetes.

Before jumping into the meds death spiral, check Dr. Berg's videos on YouTube, and I'm sure you'll find a way forward. When your body is broken, nutrition isn't a simple thing, trust me, I know.
