I was unaware of the change in the law.

I assume you're referring to the Child Citizenship Act of 2000[0], yes?

Thanks for setting me straight.

But I'm a little confused about that. I assume you're talking about Eduardo Saverin[1] the Facebook co-founder.

According to his Wikipedia page, he turned 18 (born 19 March 1982) before that law went into effect on February 27, 2001. As such, are you sure he was automatically made a citizen rather than going through the naturalization process?

I don't know. I'm more of the mind to create a new blog post titled "Everything, reviewed" in which I review every product I've ever owned (worth mentioning), and put all my reviews there. I think you could aggregate that info, if only I had good identifiers. This is where I wish the world had URIs & Dublin Core for, ya know, everything. <sigh/> Good luck deciphering what I mean when I'm blogging.

I think Rotten Tomatoes is not the site to copy here, but rather Criticker: if I can rate items and compare my ratingset to similar ratingsets, that would be valuable.

DSGE models are designed be solved on your laptop in 0.0001 seconds. There are more complicated models, like Krussell-Smith, but it's not clear that they help explain macroeconomics better.

Agent-based modelling isn't more popular because they assume that the agents are very, very stupid. Also, not only do they not produce closed-form solutions, they don't tend to lead to clear statements at all. Also also, the leading agent-based modeler, Cars Hommes, is infinitely better published than most economists, so he's not suffering too bad.
Amazing idea! This is definitely missing, I can’t wait for you guys to build this.
Totally agreed, that's why some sort of judiciary oversight is so important. But the important thing is that the cost function you optimize has to be "constitutionally" correct. Similar to the Census, more population gives your more House or Representative seats, etc. I would expect you can create something similar for other policies.

E: And I also agree how today's problem should be able to be solved if policy makers wanted to. But if we went towards a data driven approach like the Census, these crooked policies should never been able to been in place to begin with.
I wouldn't understand it either if I wasn't exposed to it. It's not something I can disclose but the general concepts at play are human reactions to risk. There's a short term boost in impressions across the internet as individuals are locked down. They order more delivery, they order more from the brands they trust, but they don't spend more during an economic downturn. We're for the most part less inclined towards risk during uncertainty. The forecasts for fully recovering to mid 2019 vary by industry but some of the largest ad buyers were the most affected. They don't care about a short term increase in ad views when no one is gonna buy their service. The largest retailers also run their own ad services so the amount of pie left after everyone has their cut isn't something that keeps many employed.

The reliability of licensed contractors is... questionable. ;-) In some cases it seems pretty silly. For example, beauticians need to be licensed, even though they make very low average salaries, so it's not particularly helpful to them, and it doesn't stop some of them from giving bad haircuts.

The mention of contractors brings up an important point though. Many people support software developer licensing because they believe (mistakenly IMO) that it would make hiring easier, but not all software development is done by employees. In a licensed profession, you cannot legally practice the trade, not even as an entrepreneur, unless you have a license. Are we to apply this same standard to software development? Nobody can write software without a license from the state? Is that even possible? What about the people writing consumer software alone at home? Can nobody even publish a web site with HTML and JavaScript without a license? A web site is essentially all you need to create a billion dollar business, so either licensing prevents that from happening, or licensing won't really be a uniform standard for the software industry.

Mark Zuckerberg was a college dropout. Thus, he wouldn't have a license. No Facebook. Maybe you're ok with that, if you hate Facebook, but nobody really thinks the problem with Facebook is that Zuck was an incompetent programmer. In any case, software development licensing would put up a major barrier to entrepreneurship in the tech industry.

It's hard to develop relationships when your default attitude is "idgaf about topics that interest you" and justify it as "no one cares about that" when it's not true.

Your example of a real friend also is basically "a true friend should be your personal cabbie if you're in a poor neighborhood" doesn't really show much perspective beyond your own needs and prejudices.

Being condescending about other people's interests doesn't make one a better human. It's okay to not be interested in what's premiering on Netflix, but maybe a "let and let live" approach to people being interested in things you don't care about would yield better outcomes.

Put a different way: You're essentially self-alienating yourself from a lot of people. Relationships are more readily formed and maintained when you don't knock people for their harmless interests. I don't care much about sports but I understand other people do and there's nothing wrong with that, and sometimes you find that socializing over a game can actually be enjoyable if you're not negatively predisposed.
Indeed. I didn't know about Solovair, although I'm not really into that style. But I have bought all my shoes from factory shops of Northamptonshire shoes companies. They keep the lasts for all of their shoes so they can continue to repair and refurbish old models.

I thought the original generators were fusion and powered some kind of ion engines?

The ostensible explanation for the later casimir generators was that they were pulling energy from vacuum fluctuations in a similar way that armature-linked buoys can generate power from ocean waves, but they were pretty vague on how that could provide more than a minuscule amount of power. Instead it was portrayed as being able to supply orders of magnitude more energy than fusion, which seems implausible. But at that point we're like 2 books in and already pretty invested...

Actually significantly worse than that. A plane gets lighter the longer it flies, especially at takeoff when everything is at max thrust. A battery becomes more and more dead weight the longer you fly.
> In practice, we use the preprocessor - a tech implemented by a drunk bell labs intern on LSD sometime in the late 60s, early 70s - to stitch together a collection of files that we are never quite sure where in the system they come from. We call them headers and source files, but really, you can include a .cpp file in a .h or elect to use the .js extension for headers, .rs for sources files and your tools would not care. You can, of course, create circular header dependencies.

> If Oracle wins, you couldn't reimplement a compatible version of anything that's not open source

It's worse than that. OpenJDK, including the java standard library, is GPL. It's open source.

Oracle is claiming that even though source code defining the API is open source, they retain copyright to the API itself.. regardless of the open source implementation of the API by themselves.

If this case goes through, you won't be able to mimic an open source project's API unless you also verify they provide the API under a similarly permissive license.
Yes, of course, and that might make sense in a production setting. Those certificates expire after 90 days though, do you really want to have to edit your dns records every 90 days? To run something locally?

Tinder's Experimentation Metric Platform: Considerations and Overview
It is optional, backwards compatible protocol. You can still use HTTP/1.1 as a server or client. Literally the only reason 1.0 isn’t still usable is IP exhaustion/vhosts, and that did not change with HTTP/2 or 3. Modern TLS is also a complicated protocol. (If you don’t believe me, I believe google.com will still load in IE 5.5+ with plain old HTTP, albeit in a legacy mode.)

Also very confused at how we’re spinning HTTPS as a bad thing now? Cloudflare and Lets Encrypt did significantly more for HTTPS adoption than Google anyways... and it is a bit preposterous that it is somehow being spun as a negative. It’s about security as much as it is about privacy...

Software developers would also need malpractice insurance to protect them from bugs. This is the difference. What real engineering and medical disciplines enforce is personal responsibility for their actions. If you screw up then you're going to be sued big time. Software always claims zero liability. It's why software development is not real engineering.

I do not believe for a moment that this has anything to do with competition.

I have lived in China and kids there are booked fully. Their parents sacrifice everything for their only child but at the same time they put a very high burden on them booking every space of their lives.

Just letting the kids fool around, experience what interest them, play and make mistakes is inadmissible.

Usually the parents work all day and only grandparents could take care of them, so making them go to some class or another is a way to have their kids busy all day.

Because they have only one child, the child needs to be perfect all the time, and the bet must be risk free.

This creates children than don't really know what they really want, and with zero creativity, incapable of making mistakes or take their own decisions.

Also when they don't have external pressure they just laze, because they lack internal motivation.

This particular person is happy on the work because he is told what to do, I suppose he works at Microsoft. Only when he is free to do whatever he can do he feels uneasy.

Like adult people(over 40) in Russia when Soviet Russia collapsed, they felt uneasy when there was no one taking all the decisions for them.

They just had not the training to deal with freedom.

As a kid, when I finished school, I was free, My friends and I decided what we wanted to do all the time. If I joined a competition, I did not tell my parents.

Over time you make lots of mistakes,exploring new territories, experiences and dangers, but develop autonomy and learn to deal with chaos.

After university I had the opposite problem to this man's, I could not stand people at work telling me what to do, specially when I considered they were taking bad decisions, so I started working on my own.

If the AI workers can't get sick, die, starve, suffer reduced productivity from chronic health issues, or care for children, then I don't see what lessons they can really expect to learn from this model. If their poor AI workers can just keep working hard gathering wood and stone forever, being fully productive without ever eating any food so they can afford to pay their taxes, then it's disconnected from reality beyond anything I'd even consider a "toy model".
I'm referring to sectoral bargaining where workers negotiate sector wide for things like wages: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sectoral_collective_bargaining. I was thinking of how Nordic countries don't have minimum wages because the unions prefer to negotiate directly with the employers.

The bargaining you refer to is between an individual employee and an employer, where the employer obviously has drastically more power, particularly in the case of immigrants on visas. Even having a single-company union would be beneficial, but the problematic companies here would just be non-union shops.

The point of sectoral bargaining is exactly what the H1B system is trying to accomplish, where you establish wage guidelines for the whole sector to prevent companies from undercutting wages with immigration. Except that because the government has to make this one-size-fits-all rule, and doesn't understand the specific needs of each sector, it's hard to come up with the right rule. Under sectoral bargaining, each sector could determine its own needs and goals, and because companies and employees each have representatives, the end result is fairer for all.

It would make the revolving door situation even worse. Can you trust a legislator to deal impartially with industry-specific legislation if they have to find a job in that industry 5 years later?

If I understand the benefits of HTTP/3 correctly, this post also doesn't address one of the major ones: seamless connection handoff during client mobility. Earlier HTTP versions are TCP-based, so if the IP address of a mobile client changes, e.g. because of moving from one cell tower to another or from wifi to/from cell, then the application layer has to notice the lost connection, create a new connection, and move whatever application-level context there is to the new connection. Not all applications do this, and even when they do, it's slow. If my understanding is correct, with HTTP/3 that's no longer necessary — the same HTTP/3 connection can migrate from one IP address to a different one.

Another benefit that isn't measured in this post but has been mentioned elsewhere in the comments here is that the experience on flaky wireless connections (without changing IPs) should be much better. TCP was designed on the premise that packet loss almost never due to physical failure to transmit a packet, and almost always due to routers queues being full (i.e. network congestion). Wireless networks violate this assumption badly: physical-layer issues are the most likely cause of packet loss on a wireless connection. TCP reacts to wifi packet drops by backing off, assuming that some router is overloaded, but the routers are fine — it's just last hop signal that's bad. In those circumstances, the client should just try again instead of throttling the connection to nothing. Since HTTP/3 uses UDP, it can potentially handle dropped packets more appropriately.
People with "disabilities" often have to buy off the shelf equipment made for the mass population, and then adapt it for their needs since most products aren't designed with them in mind.
O, yes, handplay has been crucial in many matches and the correctness in awarding a kick or not is a favorite passtime for many fans discussing historical games.

My suspicion is that it will open the game because teams would prefer to attack and keep the ball away from the danger zone. If penalty kicks become to successful though, FIFA might decide to make it more difficult for the kicker instead of going back to the previous chaos. Examples are:

1. if the goalkeeper reflects the ball, nobody can approach it and try again.

2. the goalkeeper could be allowed to leave the goal line and meet the ball.

3. the goals could be made narrower.

Optics, as the OP calls it, is definitely an underestimated problem of modern computing.

So much work goes in most languages into processing nested data structures, especially in this day and age of heterogeneous APIs, and a lot of it is actually not that difficult to generalize conceptually into most languages. A few weeks ago I wrote a PoC in Python and it was remarkably easy to make a lens for traversing data structures.

Declarative optics and updates would make writing business logic a lot easier on so many domains.
https doesn't care about the content, it's the browser that tells the user that his communication is in the clear, and there's no assurance as to who the user is talking to.

> What danger could possibly happen if I'm reading about a Physical Therapy clinic?

Depends what is a "danger" to you. Your insurance learning you're having issues and deciding to increase the amounts you owe them, because they saw that your back is aching, is definitely a problem.

> But unless the Physical Therapist knows how to manage the server, they get this scary warning.

Wrong. In 2020, if the Physical Therapist can have an http website, they can have an https website with a valid certificate.

It's the same for your grandma store. Going from no website to http is a much much bigger step than going from http to https.
If it makes charging more efficient (less energy converted to heat, more stored) then it would improve the charge rate but not by 10x.
As I mentioned before, moderators and a trustworthiness/credibility rating for each user can probably tackle this issue. Have you ever posted some bs in a niche subreddit? It quickly gets deleted/downvoted.
I'm excited about HTTP/3, but I sincerely hope HTTP/1.1 never goes away. There's something important about being able to write a compliant web server in a couple lines of code using nothing but a TCP socket.

Funny, I've been a bit obsessed with Alfred Brendel's recordings of the Schubert impromptus recently (especially No. 2).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yaUxihBZXs

He's an exceptional world class pianist and I have to imagine that the ideas in his book come from a place of deep experience. I only mention this because the LRB critic is pretty savage toward Brendel in the review and one might walk away from the review only thinking that Glenn Gould is some sort of water walker and Brendel is a joke, which is completely unwarranted.
