To be fair, they often also pushed depreciation onto their (young, naive) drivers.

But other than that, there is essentially no marginal cost to the delivery infrastructure, you pay part of the driver cost directly (via tip), they at most take a cut to go to drivers (minimum) wages, but that's a fixed cost not % of checks.
I agree with you in the event you are someone with access to material non-public information. Your average IC outside of legal or finance is unlikely to have such information. My argument is that the potential transaction itself is now public. Obviously, if you have material non-public information, you should not trade on that unless you want to end up in a Matt Levine piece.
> I don't understand why more restaurants don't just offer a discount for direct ordering if the fees are this high. Seems like a win-win

The margins on restaurants are already very small.

Instead (at least in my experience) charge more for items purchased via DoorDash/Uber Eats.

In effect you get a discount for ordering and picking up.
That's fascinating, because out of all of the restaurants I have browsed on Uber Eats, I noticed about half had higher prices than they do on location (and generally significantly so—it wasn't uncommon to see a 20-30% difference). So they must not currently enforce it.

Edit: Even more interestingly, I rarely see this behavior on GrubHub. Maybe they have a history of enforcing it? Or are just more explicit about the rule? Or just coincidence? I'm not sure.
Thanks for linking that spin paper earlier - I'm reading it and it's interesting.

With respect to uncertainty of angmom vs position - I would expect the pontryagin dual of angmom (which would be affected by the H.U.P.) to be angular density distribution, not "position" as such. Do you have any information on this relationship?

Also, do you know what the energy eigenstates of electrons in the fermi band look like, and how those relate to velocity eigenstates? As I understand, fermi band electrons that carry electrical current are usually not bound to atoms, but in a much wider (space basis) state, which I would expect to be closer to momentum/velocity eigenstates.

Also, how literal are you claiming the OP is? I've never heard this "gearing" analogy before, and I'm wondering if it's highly metaphorical or if this reflects some actual physical process I'm just not familiar with.
True, although that would probably require a shift to more full time drivers. My last Chinese food order arrived in a new Caddilac.

Having worked with React/Hooks for the past few months - I think he did a good job of identifying the benefits and problems of hooks. In a production application, you are likely to use something like redux or xstate to keep the state in your components minimal which in turn allows you to avoid a lot of the complexity that hooks have.

> I've seen some documentation come out of more scientific-oriented technical industries (think 'Theory of Operation' texts accompanying old lab instruments) that are just wonderful.

I often use documentation as a gauge for how engaged a company is in making sure their product works in a way that makes sense. I've dropped part manufacturers before because they handed me documentation during evaluation that doesn't make any sense. Like the words are all on the page and someone obviously spent time writing the documentation but they don't make sense, like nobody actually read it.

My bottom line there is that I'm not going to waste my time emailing you every time I need to solve a new problem with your product. I pride myself on being able to respond to questions about how our product works and I refuse to become the middleman between our end customer and your sales engineer.

The first product I dropped for this was a thermal printer. After reading the documentation 3 times front to back I could not figure out what command to send the thing to make it issue a printout. I had to email the manufacturer for an explanation of the most important thing a printer can do.

I also have a problem with calling developers engineers. Heck, I would be offended if someone called me a developer rather than a programmer.

But unfortunately even the degrees themselves become less significant. A PhD in mathematics used to mean more than it does now. But another point is that with global literacy going up, scarse skills are now not based on the amount of people with certain degrees, but rather with inherent abilities that are uncommon. (Take Fortran coders as an example.)

I'm in the same boat. But I noticed a lot of my developer co-workers prefer video's. Especially the younger generation (I'm 41).
I read Slaughterhouse 5 first, so that might be why I prefer it, even though I really enjoyed Cat's Cradle. But beyond that, I felt that Slaughterhouse 5 tied into reality more for me. It just felt more relevant, if that makes sense, but it could totally just have been due to my mindset at the time.

"Do not give GrubHub, Uber Eats, and similar services a large portion of your order total just for being an easy-to-use middleman"

Thank for the advice, but I highly value an easy-to-use middleman. How many orders would these restaurants miss out on if they didn't offer the easier option? And it's not just the ease of use (viewing the menu, adding comments, seeing real-time delivery status) but it's that fact that these services offer a centralized way to find restaurants to order from in the first place. I'm not saying I love the current balance of power, but much like with old-style taxi services, the new way is an undeniably better experience for the end user. People will never abandon the easier way, and much like with more traditional boycotts, relying on consumer action is a losing strategy for enacting change.
>is that women for most of human history weren't allowed to write.

Isn't this sexism? Read my argument again. I literally said that the reason why there are more men then women authors on mind bending concepts is because of Sexism. We are in total agreement.

I know of Ursula K. Le guin. If you read her biography you'll read about all the hardships she had to go through to get her work published. As a woman her books were burned for not being about parenting or cooking. Left hand of darkness was especially heretical and many such books were burned in public book burnings back in the day.

Just google "Ursula K. Le Guin Book burnings" and look at all the results on google. That's the extent of all the hardships she had to go through.

Some people may tell you that nothing of the sort happened and that she won some kind of award for her book called a Hugo Award, but they would be lying sexists.

There are less women authors than men authors because there is active suppression that has been going on since Ursula K. Le guin was born. We are NOT in disagreement here.

The disparity has nothing to do with a general choice and disinterest in science fiction by women. Women have no choice in every matter where there is a disparity with men. Women and men are biologically equal in every possible measure. Any statistical difference is a form of inequality and sexism enforced by MEN.
I havent tested personally but this seems to suggest that you can't re-sign the bootloader: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/i...

> "Windows boot components: BootMgr, WinLoad, Windows Kernel Startup. Windows boot components verify the signature on each component. Any non-trusted components will not be loaded and instead will trigger Secure Boot remediation."

Plus, you would need to add some kind of check to verify that it's actually booting your image, or else the attacker could just copy your bootloader files.
Expedia gets away with charging 20% and hotel chains are (or at least were) pretty powerful businesses.

The sales funnel is pretty valuable, and they’ll cut you off/derank you if you undercut.

There is also a contract but I don’t think that’s the main motivator.
I concur with Ancillary Justice. I love the way that you have to work out what is happening through successive detail. Plenty of surprises. A genderless society is very hard to get one's mind around.

Even for the first story in Gateless Gate it's probably intended that the reader know what "mu" means and the orthodox Zen Buddhist position on who/what does or does not have Buddha-nature—and WTF "buddha-nature" is—before tackling it. Those parts aren't supposed to be mysterious.
Yeah, I think the charge of "clever" is often thrown out when one uses a different way of thinking. I'm not an FP zealot at all, but I do think learning to think recursively does something to one's programming. (Working through SICP or even The Little Schemer) My own personal take it that I appreciated and enjoyed some of those paradigms far more. What I would NEVER try to do is turn Java or Go into those paradigms though. I would, however, like to have some of those handy niceties available by default. (I want to map over a collection and apply a function to each member). But again, that's a personal preference.
One difference is that you can just use data directly as it comes from the net (or combine it with any other data in your application).

You don't have to wrap it in models like this https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquick-modelviewsdata-modelview.html and then either recalculate that when the data changes or have a custom model class that does it. Though granted that is still a huge improvement over doing this in regular Qt Widgets (see the star example a few comments above), or one of the "old school" desktop GUI builders. This difference would be felt even more if the items also had some interactivity with state (e.g. expanded/collapsed things in them, lazy loaded extra info etc.)

One consequence of the way rendering works is that I can just use language-native constructs like `if` or the ternary operator to either include or not include the "Top poster" line in the example. Instead of having to do something like this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27695717/conditionally-i.... Similarly, you can use map/filter on arrays, transform the data more easily before rendering it, etc.

Another difference is that JS/TS is the main language of the entire app, not a separate DSL that you can use for some parts and not for others. You can use async/await, have the entire npm ecosystem available, etc.

Though QML is still hell of a lot better in this regard than old school VB or Delphi used to be.
Written materials can also be used as reference much more easily. You can't ctr+f a video to look for the specific nugget of information you need.
In messaging with support, they advised that the system would 'automatically' identify the account as compromised and eventually block it. This doesn't seem that likely so I will ping them again in a few hours.

I once compared the fee across four major delivery sites for the same order at the same restaurant. It turns out, the food did vary by a few bucks between services.

My accounting is here (I mainly focused on the fee structure but the base food cost is there too)

Congratulations to anyone for whom this makes the slightest bit of sense. I'm sadly missing whatever part of the brain is needed to understand what philosophers are going on about.
It might just be a problem with me, but I think that the level of articulation that a book can offer is way higher than what a video could. A book is written down, read, edited, and thoughtfully compiled, with the possibility of new editions coming out regularly. With a video this is less easy to do unless you want to keep re-recording.
"I Am a Strange Loop" by Douglas Hofstadter. It explores an idea of consciousness as being a side effect over neurological loops becoming recursive. It also gets into the idea that your conscious mind can partially blend into another's. He does this by talking about his feelings of day to day life after his wife passed away. There's a dense math chapter, but the rest is pleasantly written
The top comment explicitly said "economic terrorism". Did you have trouble understanding the meaning of that?
Same thing has happened with college degrees in the US. Why are people always surprised by this? A credential only has value through exclusion.
"Governments should encourage the adoption of telecommuting by employers where it’s possible but not yet implemented. They could, for instance, provide information to organizations about how it works."

This seems a bit delusional. Who actually believes the government knows how to run a business? If you think remote work should be encouraged by the government, all they need to do is use taxes/tax breaks to incentivize it.
because generics generally are unncessary. there is a very small subset of programs where they are useful if you have arrays and maps already available.

there was no need to rush an implementation of generics.

Hmmm. Great question. What was the most "mind bending" moment in cinema? The ending to The Sixth Sense or the trial and conviction of Harvey Weinstein? When I think of mind bending I think of the thoughts and ideas that break one out of a previous believed framework of thinking. Things that have a lasting impact on how they see and view the world.

Above, in chronological order, are the books that changed my life. It is weird looking at that list, as each book is tied to such a fundamental shift in my life. They each taught me about something fundamentally new and different. Faith, spirituality, economics, thought, power, society, nature, technology. It should appear obvious by looking at the list, there are plenty of opposite pairs, dipole books if you will, present. Bending one’s mind has multiple phases, first when one goes from knowing nothing to knowing something. Depending on what was learned, this can definitely be mind bending. But not everyone rides the second phase, going from knowing something to learning that it wasn’t the whole thing, or wasn’t the only way to interpret such a thing, or wasn’t entirely correct, or perhaps, in our largely subjective world, is not true at all.

Certain books can only speak to certain people at certain times of their life. It’s just the beauty of the whole thing. And to the core of this thread, one actually has to believe something, truly and passionately, in order for them to then have their world view bent and turned on its head. This is the hardest lesson that many won’t really ever opt to face. The core of truth, learning, and wisdom comes when you finally read (and thus think) something that takes a belief you previously held as passionately true, unalterably true, core-to-identity true, and made you wrestle with the reality that it may, perhaps, not be. That’s the biggest mind f* of them all.

One’s entire worldview is constructed of things they believe. But those things you believe come, for some more than others, from what one read, purposefully or not. Seek books that challenge what you believe and enjoy the ride.
What Motivates Elon Musk?
Thanks for sharing! This is really cool.
Shrug. I'm pretty sick of getting in the middle of this shit.

I'm already in the middle of it every time I eat out- having to add an arbitrary tip to the end of the my bill and always get surprised because I'm supposed to sit there and increase everything 10-20% of the menu prices.

Then I order groceries from walmart online and they try to bug me to add a $10-20 tip for every order that arrives.

Screw all of that. If the restaurants are paying too much, then they can figure it out. It's not my problem.. I'm done with it. Just show me what it costs.. telling me to go to the restaurant instead of using a service is ludicrous and pretty much defeats the purpose of delivery.

When I ordered from Costco last week, you know what they did? Increased all their prices so it included all the extra work. That way every item I ordered I could see exactly what I was paying- I didn't have a choice, which is great. I don't want the choice.
You can't expect run a 2k junker on significant monthly miles without incurring costs. You might be lucky, but it's a bad bet. Not to mention the risk that some mechanical failures may cost you your job.

For a point of view of Baudrillard about matrix:

https://baudrillardstudies.ubishops.ca/the-matrix-decoded-le...
I respect your view. I enjoyed reading Hesse when I did; read 3 of his books; SteppenWolf, Glass Bead Game, Siddhartha. There are many nice ideas in them. I simply don't adore his writings the way many do, however. My views changed as I changed.

Here's a quote from the New Yorker:

"Many young men, in particular, see a glamorous reflection of themselves in the typical Hesse hero—a sensitive, brooding man who cannot find a place for himself in ordinary society. This figure might live in India in the age of the Buddha, like Siddhartha, or in Germany in the Jazz Age, like Harry Haller, or in the Middle Ages, like Goldmund in “Narcissus and Goldmund.” Whatever the setting, his path will generally feature the same landmarks. He will be plucked out of his childhood surroundings and sent to an élite school, where he will suffer deeply. He will rebel against conventional ideas of success and refuse to pursue any kind of career, combining downward mobility with spiritual striving."

Siddhartha, while an enjoyable read, confuses/"borrows" eastern religious concepts to turn it into "follow the beat of your own drum, man!".

This has real world consequences: Hesse justified his taking the "middle ground" between Nazism vs its opponents by his "politics of detachment".. you know, because he is above society, quoting from JewisPress.com:

"Hesse’s failure to publicly condemn the Nazi Party and the fascist regime was due, in large part, to his “politics of detachment” – his policy of viewing the war fever infecting Germany from a distance and his general aloofness to the deadly struggle during the 1930s and 40s as he publicly sought to occupy the “middle ground” between the Nazis and exiled German writers.

Early in the war, Hesse published an essay in which he clearly applied his “middle ground” standard, expressing and anticipating German victory but also insisting that humane values be protected. Even this bland caveat earned him everlasting hostility from the German public."

I am not claiming Hesse was a Nazi, and privately he was more anti-Nazi than anything else. His wife was Jewish.

Hesse's heroes are more Ubermensch that view regular society as cattle, than harmless Hippies.

I also tend to think the US Hippie movement of the 60s as a philosophy of selfishness..(yes, I'm aware of anti-war origins etc.) so perhaps there's more to our disagreement. My politics lean left fwiw.. social democrat.

Yeah so I just want to point out that most other CI systems are harder to understand, less documented, harder to bring your own hardware to bear on, and do less for the general software community than GitLab does.

I've used CircleCI, Travis, Drone (I don't think I've used Concourse actually) -- and I by far prefer GitLab CI, it is more featureful and more easy to use.
A truly terrible book through and through. The best chapter is his review of JG Ballards "Crash".

Jean Baudrillard is the worst kind of intellectual charlatan and I am surprised to see folks around here who don't see that.

Actually Baudrillard, the gulf war DID happen. The phenomenon that he identifies in books like this (Tv news tries to show you an illusion instead of the truth) don't need post-modernist mystical explanations.
