Not sure this article was more than a journal entry for the guy who wrote it, but I will chime in.

Given any anecdote about the economy going down and stock market going up, it is worth noting what is going on with the money supply. There is a huge amount of liquidity being pushed into the USD supply by the fed and treasury. It needs to go somewhere. The (government's) hope is that it will go into hiring/spending and the real economy. Even if that is what happens to the majority of the new money supply (debatable) a large amount will go into financial assets for people who want to preserve their wealth. The expected result (IMO) would be stocks to go up in USD purely because of demand for them. This can alse been seen as inflation or maybe financial asset inflation. The fundamentals of the economy are not good, but the new money has to go somewhere. After paying for living expenses etc, there aren't many places to put it besides the stock market.

A final thought is that if consumer price inflation remains low and financial assets catch all the inflation, the "rich" or invested benefit the most. However, its arguable that financial asset inflation without CPI is a better result for most people vs high CPI and a stock market crash. I would be interested to know if this a framework used by the Fed or just me as a random guy on the internet.

I can't imagine it'll replace Patreon though, as a lot of creators see Patreon as giving them back control from Google's inscrutable, capricious treatment.

Are school buses not a thing anymore? The suburb I grew up in definitely didn't have a remotely decent public transit system but the school district was required (along with all public school districts in the state of Texas IIRC) to provide a school bus that stopped within a few minutes' walk of every student's home (probably with exceptions for people who actually lived outside of the school boundaries and applied to transfer in). In high school, classes started after 9am and it all seemed to work just fine.

Your optical mouse sensor is also a low res camera. In older models you could dump the picture through a debug mode.

The history curriculum really matters and it's almost impossible to generalise over. Mine was ok in the primary school and then degraded to "which army led by whom moved where (occasionally why)". Took me years to realise that if you learn more about the progress of wars than the reasons they started, it's worse than wasted time.
Yeah, it absolutely does prove it. The driver is responsible for driving the car, not other person sitting next to driver.

Also, you can not loan your gun to random people, you can borrow your car to whoever you want to. In the situation when someone else can legally borrow your gun and uses it for crime, the item should be returned to you at the same exact moment when other evidence is returned after trial.

Keeping gun as evidence is necessary for trial, keeping car as evidence is not necessary here. Aaaaand keeping evidence and seizing item for profit are also massively different actions.

>>Any negotiation between a single employee and their employer is inherently unfair

>wow! what a statement.you are of course entirely wrong.

Dude, it's basic mathematics. Suppose you have company X that has 100 employees, and each of those employees only have the one employer - company X.

If company X fires employee Y, then X loses 1% of its employees, whereas Y loses 100% of its income.

It's pretty clear that when it comes to power, on average X can afford to lose 1% of its income more than Y can afford to lose 100% of their income. Which is to say, X has more leverage than Y.

Plus, there's a game theory side of this - if one worker demands a raise and the company hurts themselves to hurt the worker demanding a raise, then other workers will be less willing to demand a raise themselves. Again, this doesn't have to do with productivity but merely power games.

Add on to this the fact that most large companies are much more financially stable than most employees - I don't think it's controversial to say that most employers can afford to lose 1 employee without any serious financial turbulence, whereas plenty of employees can't afford to lost their jobs without financial turbulence.

In other words, a worker not being able to afford losing their job gives more negotiating power to the employer without necessarily making the worker any more/less productive.

There's no denying that the employer inherently has a power advantage over the employee. A few way-above-average employees will have so much more productivity to bargain with that they still hold power, but by definition most employees don't.

By the way, note that this doesn't just apply to wages/money - it also applies to employee negotiations on safety and corruption/ethics.

I think there are two important not-union-related things to learn here.

1. This means that the more financially stable everyone is, the more money they earn as a direct result of their additional bargaining power.
2. This also means the more financially stable the average person in society is, the more capable people are of whistleblowing on corruption.
Of course a C-style array in C++ doesn't have a defined end. It doesn't have an end in C either. But in C++ you don't need to be using those anyway.

Part of the issue is that, while you can use the usual C idioms in C++ (e.g. a function takes an array and its length as arguments), you don't need to, especially if you're using C++ correctly. This is one of the points of the article.

Like hellofunk said, this has nothing to do with the type system. But the solution to what you're talking about is fundamental C++: use the standard library.

It's relatively new. Before we used upvotes. Actually I still don't use it and keep using upvotes to favourite stories. I'm sorry for that and even worse: sometimes I upvote a story without following the link, just using the upvote as a "read later" bookmark because I found the title intriguing. Not so bad is when I upvote because there's a very interesting comment, even though the article itself is crappy.

Time ago someone posted a script that collects upvoted stories, but I can't find it now, it's in one of those upvoted stories O:) I guess I could make a conversion... but there are probably more than a thousand upvoted stories, I don't know.

I was surprised to learn that I wasn't using the favorite feature!

I primarily browse HN through the Android app "Materialistic", which has a prominent "save" button at the top of each story.

However, those saved stories (~1.1/week) aren't favorited. Just saved locally.

Could this be part of why the feature seems so rarely used?

I've been in this situation multiple times.

You interview, you like what you see, form a (partially subconscious) opinion about the company/culture, take the job... and then discover some warts that weren't visible.

Now you know to be skeptical any time you interview, and make it your job to _hunt_ for the hidden warts. Ask questions as if the next N years of your happiness at work depend on it! Don't feel satisfied (or take the job) until you have reason to be relatively confident about what culture/situation you're getting into.

Honestly, this is why I'm glad I switched jobs every couple years at the beginning of my career. I've seen a wide range of types of companies (non-profit, agency, corporate, start-up). I've also experienced various cultural problems they don't reveal in the interview process.

Do they act like they have a nailed down process? It actually might be fluid, and they're presenting the current iteration.

Does the interview process not seem very rigorous? You'll have peers who aren't very competent, because the bar is low.

Make the _most_ out of learning from this experience! Make persistent attempts to move the culture in the right direction. Don't be afraid to fail at that. You can still gain a lot of growth from this.
And you'd need four of those, I'd guess... so 100kW or so.
> that Firefox doesn't support yet.

> This specification was published by the Web Bluetooth Community Group. It is not a W3C Standard nor is it on the W3C Standards Track.

It's not a Chrome API because nobody else supports it yet, it's a Chrome API because nobody other than Chrome is going to support it. Ideally, Chrome itself should remove their implementation.

The Web Bluetooth debacle is a good example of why new browser APIs shouldn't be turned on for end users by default until after they get far enough in the standards process that they we know they're not going to be rejected.
I think that for identical reasons, browser extensions should be severely restricted on dev machines to a whitelist. I think it’s crazy how so many developers install Chrome extensions managed by random anonymous people which often have broad permissions and which auto-update.

To be fair, The Age has long been in a state of derangement through having to compete for its traditional audience with both the (state-funded) ABC and The (trust-funded) Guardian, as well as smaller outlets like The Saturday Paper, Crikey, etc, whilst having lost much of the classifieds revenue that used to fund the formidable investigative, political and business reporting on which it built its proud reputation.

It hasn't been a decent publication for at least 12-15 years, and has long sought to attract eyeballs by stooping to BuzzFeed-style clickbait.

The Nine merger is an attempt to restore it to the position it used to hold in the market, but sadly the world has changed too much for that to be possible, so it's just gone from one kind of trash to another, it would seem.

What I mean by feedback is that, when a developer works on functionality he will get a feedback from somewhere. It has to do what it is supposed to do whether the developer understood the requirements or didn't and the users are going to point it out with bug reports or incidents.

On the other hand if the developer misunderstood the requirements or completely bungled the unit tests (for example they always pass) then there is no feedback to tell. Everything is fine as long as tests pass. Of course, one could say that the test should be first written to not pass and then fixed by implementing the feature, but who's going to check that? There isn't easy way to tell me if developers are doing good job with tests other than to delve into each feature and understand it and look at the tests.

Also unit tests test components that typically are specified by the developer (so he makes both spec and the component and the unit test). With functional testing at least one of those is verified by the user and you get some feedback -- if the user reports the service is not working properly you make a functional test to replicate the issue and then fix the service so that it behaves correctly according to the written test.

If the user is another development team it is entirely possible, in a mature org, that the other team can write the test.

> I'm personally convinced that functional programming is 10x better than any other paradigm I've tried.

The failing is having a simple model that assumes that any one paradigm is ever best.

A multi-paradigm language will always have the capacity to be better, or equal, by any metric.

I also strongly disagree with this sentiment based on experience. There are some tiny niches where functional programming is particularly useful, but outside of them the code is classically difficult to read, write or debug.... a problem made worse by the, very honestly, absolutely appalling quality of almost all example code - normalising one letter variable names, squeezing things onto one line and all kind of other terrible practises.

these are deeply serious problems that fp fanboys and academia seem to glaze over, presumably from a lack of real world experience, or appreciation of how valuable these qualities are ...

In my Russian school back in Lithuania we had a very limited course covering classic literature as a part of a bigger generic literature course: I remember reading Odyssey, Iliad, etc

My colleague from Austria had a course in Latin back in school, and he mentioned that he read /Commentarii de Bello Gallico/ in the original language.

Oh, and I study Ancient Egyptian right now. Not too many - none - people support me in this endeavor. But in general it feels that in UK it is relatively easy to find people interested in those things.

> If they keep growing at 30-50% for the next 5 to 10 years

A significant part of their revenue is selling regulatory credits to traditional manufacturers. In essence, buying a Tesla subsidizes someone else's purchase of an Escalade.

If Tesla continues to grow they will be taking market share away from traditional manufacturers, who will thus need fewer regulatory credits. So at some point each additional sale of a Tesla will result in no net gain in profit. Tesla will have to grow well beyond that point for additional sales to equal additional profit.

Unless you think that consumers have the money and desire to purchase an Escalade and a Tesla at the same time.

Words are easier to read and write even if you do not understand their real life meaning, especially since computers are still made with a primary input device for typing words, and allow for way more distinct and readable variations (26 letters + numbers vs just the few symbols on the keyboard). And while they aren't that helpful when learning as a kid, they can still be very helpful later when you have to tackle way more - remember that the argument was about kids learning.

> Next you'll want to teach morals.

We always have in many ways, but I catch your drift. I take issue with schools that teach kids what to think instead of how to think.

I don’t know if it is pandemic but I’ve seen some people complain about some very controversial curriculum creeping into schools. A person I saw on Twitter recently posted some curriculum their 1st grader was being taught which tells a story through the lens of critical race theory. In essence telling the children that the white kids are racist and need to work to be anti-racist.

It was shocking to me because it is applying controversial “Theory” that is very much opposed to liberal science ideals of falsifiability and injecting identity politics into minds that can’t even begin to understand the postmodern philosophy these ideas grew from.
I couldn't believe it when I found out that these are a real, actual thing. I don't see how anyone in the US can cast stones at any other nation for corrupt police accepting bribes when you can largely get carte blanche just for being 'in the club' there.

You're making a fine argument, but you assume things freeze in time. Whether or not TS will stick to ECMA script in the future is speculation.

A similar argument to yours could be made where we speculated that JS introduces a typing system in the future and hence creates an incompatibility (to .e.g. TS), hence TS is bad. But I've specifically not tried to speculate in the post.

I value that the two languages are very similar and that TS respects ECMA script. However, my argument was (whether you think it was misguided by that silly Objective-C example or not) that TS and JS are different by equality and identity (current and potentially for the future), which is why they belong in different package managers.

In this particular case, the "asset" (the car) was definitely used to commit a "crime" (drunk driving). Your suggestion, as it stands, looks like it wouldn't have prevented the forfeiture of this particular car.

A simpler rule could be to not seize assets from people who aren't convicted (or accused of) any crime. Note that someone who lends their car for a bank robbery could still be charged with a crime if we can suspect they knew about the robbery.

>Moreover, as the self-appointed facilitators of the new self-government of the online global population,32 currently there is little that would prevent the leading social media platforms from using and canalizing this civic power for the goals they see fit – much like a government with the difference that governments are subject to democratic oversight..

2 things on the above:
First point, self-appointed does not matter. It is just a declaration. What matters is that people/users themselves turned this declaration into a fact. So, second point, platforms are subject to democratic oversight: Like you control your vote, you control your keyboard or mouse that clicks the sign-up button or accepts the TOS, you control the mouth and the fingers that propagate the information, and the brain that consumes it.

I really dislike it when people , by their own actions, become dependent on a service someone else offers in such a degree that they feel they are now entitled to the service and that it is now a public good. They strive to establish and cement this dependence on their own terms, assigning now the responsibility of maintaining it to the offerer (again on their own terms). That's the relationship between a spoiled child and its parents, not between a man and the society.
