For you. Culturally, land ownership in the US is a big deal. Yeah, some cultures are broken - I don't know if the security provided by having somewhere to call your own until the day you die is one of them.

And I really mean that - I don't know. Some cultures thrive on women being subjugated to men. Some cultures thrive on authoritarian levels of control that are inconceivable in the west.

By comparison, a desire for land ownership seems pretty mundane.

The online application process has made it so easy to apply for jobs that employers get flooded with applications. So they really have no choice but to use arbitrary criteria to filter candidates down to a manageable set. (The same thing has also happened to college applications.)

China's solid rule of law will surely be a boon to all.
I guess technically, the title should be "Boa release v0.10." Better?

Rather than curse the darkness, I'll quote the first sentence from the page: "Boa is an experimental Javascript lexer, parser and compiler written in Rust." What's so great about this particular release? "v0.10 has been the biggest release to date, with 138 issues closed!" Also, there's a test suite: 38,706 tests, of which 6,895 passed and 5,748 were ignored, for a conformance rate of 17.81%.
1) Task makes it easy to supervise non-complicated async workflows. In prod, you REALLY want to supervise. Don't use spawn_link, it doesn't show up in the supervisin tree.

2) Task also implements the $callers process library key. What this means is that if you spawn a process with Task, it knows which process was responsible for calling it (note that this is in general different from "the process that supervises it"). In tests, you can use the $callers value to shard global state in a concurrency-friendly fashion.

Examples:

1. Make a mock in Mox. Spawn using Task. Call your mock from the task, Mox knows that the parent test is and serves the "correct mock".

2. Check out a database sandbox. Spawn using Task. Use the database in your task, Ecto knows what is parent test (and checkout) and serves the correct db view.

3. Make an HTTP request from your test. Stuff the $callers parameter into an HTTP header with term_to_binary and hex encoding (probably user-agent is a good choice). Use a plug to put $callers into your phoenix connection genserver. Spawn a Task that accesses your DB. Ecto knows what is the parent test (and checkout) and serves the correct DB view. So the cool thing is that YOUR REQUEST LEFT THE VM and it still worked! and this is composable too, if you do it right.
I once had an experience of "time-looping" on acid where I returned to the beginning of the same scene over and over. After four or so rewinds I would say the words of whoever's turn it was to talk before they said it. I'm a pretty rational guy but that experience shook me to the core. There's a Midnight Gospel episode I saw recently that portrayed it in animation dead-on. So I can't be the only one.
As a Gentoo user, I very much welcome being able to pull in some applications that are closed source and/or not part of the portage tree without the hassle of finding out how exactly the base platform that it was compiled against looks like. For a while I had to keep a lot of 32bit versions of libraries around just to make Steam happy, and build the stupidly large qtwebengine just for the Nextcloud client. Nowadays I get both of them via Flatpak without hassle and can keep a leaner base system.

I also started with CodeWarrior, but it was with a copy I "borrowed" on a bunch of floppies - then at some point I saved up enough money to buy the Starter Kit, and 30-odd years later here we are.

If one is talking exclusively about in-state tuition, my numbers are high, but my understanding is that enough students pay out-of-state tuition that the discrepancy becomes relevant.

Child commenter to your comment may be right about sticker prices being paid by the rich, which I don't know as much about.

Ideally, global savings would go to help industrialize poor countries. However, investors are usually scared that they will not get their money back. Either because of corruption or "nationalization". Thus, investors are likely to choose a less productive use in a country with strong rules to reward investment.

> Alternately, maybe copyright infringement. Some of the data are considered facts, that are not copyrightable (even in aggregate, in the U.S.).

Facts aren't copyrightable, but a collection of facts might be if there was sufficient creativity involved in the selection and arrangement of the facts.

The big case on this was Feist Publications, Inc., v. Rural Telephone Service Co., 499 U.S. 340 (1991), where a company copying a telephone book was found not to be if infringing because the phone book was not be copyrighted.

The Court ruled that there is a constitutional requirement for at least some minimal degree of creativity in a work for it to be copyrighted. In the case of a phone book, neither the selection criteria (everyone in this region who has a phone) nor the arrangement (alphabetical order by name).

The Court also noted that if there is sufficient creativity in the selection or arrangement to support copyright, the copyright would be on that selection and arrangement. The underlying facts would still be uncopyrightable. In the case of the phone book, for example, that would mean that even if Rural had used a creative arrangement and could copyright that, Feist could still take all the names and phone numbers and produce its alphabetical phone book from them.

Applying this to Facebook, it may be that they do have copyright in the selection and arrangement of facts that were scraped. Whether or not the scraper is infringing would hinge on what they did with those facts.
I'll take a shot. People are just done with ads. My samsung S20 ultra costs me ~1300, and has ads on the phone, as in the native Samsung apps for everything. And since none can be installed I now have worthless bloatware I had to replace with ad free working alternatives.

Samsung tvs are hilariously bad with ads all over.

On neither item is it possible to flash this crap away or disable it. People love to tout things being free for our data, but this is paying over $1k to still have some of the most intrusive ads ever.

You must own one of their products to watch their ads with shows thrown in (Samsung channel) and this means you have paid for access to that channel and are still being served disgustingly intrusive ads(as others pointed out they screen grab and send home images of everything you watch on any input)
Along the lines of this article, there's the dilemma/contradiction faced by modern globalisation in that money can move much faster and more freely than labor. In previous iterations (late 1700s, 1800s and the first few decades of the 1900s) labor and money moved at basically the same speed: as an investor, your capital (gold/silver, then whatever money instrument replaced it) took the same boat/train/carriage as labor. This had a moderating effect, and the system was able to almost always equalize itself in terms of trade and investments flows.
To be honest, no, that just sounds like you're doubling down on preserving harmful social structures because it benefits your in group. White supremacist groups in the US also focus on the positives and shared culture of white America. Hating blacks isn't the core belief, it's just a side effect of wanting everyone to know that whites are the best.

I don't mean to say it's hateful to say you want social castes out on the table for identifying who you share connections with, but that obviously comes with the fact that you identify those who don't share that connection. It's a justification for extending social problems.
as always, relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1827/
The reality is that the labor is only worth 500k to the company. If the individual could extract the same 500K from their labor without the company, they would (hopefully). They don't because it's not purely the labor generating that value, but the capital invested along with that labor. Being a great programmer is worthless without a computer.

I think a really good example is a story from Google. An intern changed the compression of the Google logo on the search page and shaved off a few bytes. Since Google serves that page billions of times, that saved google a 10's of thousands of dollars a year, and was literally minutes of work. If the same intern did the same work anywhere else, it would have been almost worthless.

There is a similar system in the US, based on skin color. The article's title references the book How To Be An Antiracist.

I can understand your post, but I don't quite buy the TCP thing. I don't think anyone is using TCP for ordering, they're using it because they don't want their packet dropped.

I guess all of the systems I build are just built to assume no order/ or to leverage causal ordering, because that feels much easier to reason about - enforcing ordering feels really hard, and like something that a message bus can only do some of the work of.

What happens when a company fails:

In China, you mess up, you get the death penalty.

In America, it's worse. You fight really dirty to get to the top. It fails no matter what you do, and you end up becoming a monster. Everyone around you dies, you see your grandkids OD, and you look back thinking if the entire thing was just one big sting by the police. Better to live poor. Much more fun.

And guys, $500,000? What is this? 1820? In the 1990s, I was told by VC, "don't call me again unless you are over a billion. That's our minimum." And that was after a South African railroad municipal bond issue.

-------------------------------------------------

The article assumes one rate for inflation. Sure, the cost of "just surviving" goes down. Everyone then dies in debt. No one has children unless it's a mistake or agrarian immigration. Everyone spends two dollars just to earn one.

The cost for not being told what to do all your life, or calling out others' mistakes, or having a say in what gets done and how goes to infinity. No capability as everyone just tears each other apart.

20% of America are retirees. 54% of children are from broken homes. The path to walk creates the quality of leadership.

Past generations have a cynical point. It's easy to get hired. Just get in shape, put on a suit, be able to fog a mirror skills wise, and, oh yeah, turn your back on everyone who got you there. If the company wants you to be in Ramadi tomorrow, be in Ramadi tomorrow. The old way goes away for a reason. Materialism and celebrity only limits the violence.

I think that we should also demand laws requiring hardware manufacturers to implement physical switches for controlling the cameras and microphones of devices they produce.

The issue is that this creates conditions in which there is no incentive for the US economy to develop the infrastructure necessary for large scale manufacturing, and that without a large manufacturing advantage national security cannot be guaranteed.

My SO has taught in some rough schools and home issues are part of the picture.

It also seems like especially disruptive kids need to be moved into classes with increasingly smaller numbers of students. That way teachers can more fairly provide for the needs of everyone.
