I'm not quite sure how to say this in a non-confrontational way, but...

the thesis of the article you quote is literally identical to the thesis of my posts -- that Marx is in fact influential on modern economics. Again, I don't want to be confrontational, but... did you read the article you're quoting? The thesis is literally the opposite of what you claim it is.

> "Few economists doubt that Marx flunked economics"

The rest of that paragraph reads as follows:

But this column argues that Marx’s representation of the power relationship between capital and labour in the firm is an essential insight for understanding and improving modern capitalism. Indeed, this insight is incorporated into standard principal–agent models of labour and credit markets.

So the article you are quoting for support states that Marxist ideas are incorporated into standard models. Not directly, of course, but there. Kinda like how Newtonian ideas are in some sense incorporated into standard model...

Let's continue.

> "Economists, looking back, have not found much to admire in Karl Marx"

And then the entire next paragraph makes literally exactly the same argument I'm making here -- that Marx is obsolete and even what he was trying to do in terms of "generalized models" is obsolete -- but that he none-the-less does effect modern economics:

These assessments are based largely on our current – and correct in my view – understanding of Marx’s labour theory of value as a pioneering, but inconsistent and outdated, attempt at a general equilibrium model of pricing and distribution. But there is another aspect of his work that has been strongly vindicated by theoretical advances in recent decades: the idea that the exercise of power is an essential aspect of the working of the capitalist economy, even in its idealised, perfectly competitive, state.

TBH, it looks like the best source you can muster for your claims is making substantively exactly the same argument I'm making.... Marx's theories are flawed but clearly continue to effect work-a-day economics to this day.

Rachel Whiteread’s House: why was this Bow landmark demolished? (2015)
I got the similar vibe even just passing though. I’ve seen the “secure beneath the watchful eyes” poster in real life: http://www.adsavvy.org/new-cctv-posters-in-uk-train-stations...
What if this tool remains public in a different part of the world? Are you going to wall off from the rest of the world so you can no longer see the tool and pretend it doesn't exist?
What’s the advantage to this over a csv in excel?

I track my blood pressure similarly. The entry is simple and I can read the csv into R/python whenever I want to visualize it.
You are doing the right thing I believe - taking relationships seriously. Maybe a bit too seriously but that's up to discussion. I am the same. Low quality relationship does way more harm than good to a normal balanced person, so like elsewhere quality beats quantity.

What I can recommend to you, maybe cliche but it works and worked for me - start some physical workout. If you are unfit start gently, adapt your body to it. Do something that you +-enjoy, you will not stay with activity you hate for too long. Progress in it, in a pace that suits you (or not, and do it more often - that's progress too). Consistency is the key.

What it brings is not only looking better, but actually feeling much better about oneself. More confidence, happiness. This is something women perceive very well and it elevates your status. One will usually start eating healthier too. What women look for is generally competence, the more you bring to the table the easier is to find the matching partner. At one point, you can start being picky and choose based either on looks (not so smart approach if the main criterion) or personality and compatibility with you.

That way, exposing oneself in various social groups does bring many more encounters and stops being such a frustrating futile experience it once was. At least that's my path, and there is good logic in it.
Generally speaking climate change generally is considered to include increased occurrence of severe events.

It's also La Niña this year, so the northern US will see a wetter, colder winter while the southwest will be warmer and drier.

I run it as a (additional) DAG on Airflow. Take a look at the example script (example.py).
I’m not saying this page can’t be improved. I am saying, however, that people pattern match when viewing websites, and the open source aesthetic is a very consistent aesthetic. And the impression the design projects is more important than it being aesthetically pleasing.

Think about Lowes vs West Elm. Both sell things for homeowners. But you can tell from their aesthetics what to expect. Lowes could copy the aesthetic of an Apple store, but it would feel very “off”.
> I've always wondered what would happen if every company/corporation had a hard cap on its size and could not have more than 150 (a.k.a Dunbar's number) of people.

I get why you picked that number, but (like most people) you've overlooked that most individuals have folks outside of their current place of work occupying a lot of those slots: family, friends, former co-workers, teachers and classmates, members of your community, professionals in various capacities (your doctor, your kids' teachers, etc.), And so on.

So, if you want everyone in your org to know each other without intermediaries, you have to pick a number

> Forget subsidiaries, conglomerates, etc. No individual could sit on the board of more than one incorporated entity, and any entity could not exert control over any other.

It is not unheard-of for people to occupy board seats in order to serve as someone else's proxy. By limiting the number of boards a person can sit on, all you've really done is raise the expense of using such a proxy.

Would the MIT license on vscode not protect you from the scenario you entertain?

Don't get me wrong. VS Code is most certainly a loss leader for the Microsoft ecosystem. This businessmodel for gaining developer mindshare is not new. It was pioneered by the free software ecosystem, but has been the defacto standard for some time now.
Any rebroadcast is already against Youtube TOS. It's only for personal use.
Well the RIAA will most likely create the opposite outcome by removing YTDL. Now boat loads of people who did not know about this tool will find it. Am I mistaken in thinking this source code only existed on one website .. Now owned by m$ ?

Imagine if source code was posted on some type of blockchain like ETH2.. Or a decentralized file sharing service, like IPFS. I wonder if websites or self hosted interpreters using some kind of services like those would make serving a take down request nearly impossible.

Well for now we can pay m$ to host code in ways people rely on for the long term. Until, they don't and the codes all taken down in something analogous to modern book burning.
It's been months now. It still sucks.

(I'm surprised to see this being called a "new" design, I've been using it for ~half a year now, and the switch was optional for a while before that.)
It has been months, maybe more than a year, since I touched anyone. It is possible, though hard, to overcome this "need"... it is not really the same kind of need as hunger or thirst. It can be sublimated into other activities if you don't keep stressing and agonising about it.
>If you ban a story on Twitter and Facebook, you are effectively ensuring the vast majority of readers will never get a chance to see it.

This is essentially the problem. FAANG are the gateways to the web and having your content removed from them makes it considerably harder to have a web presence.

I'm sure most sane people would not want tech companies to be the arbiters of truth, though the solution as to how people can consume information without the inherent bias of platforms/algorithms/company policy remains to be seen.
PHP 8 – All new features with interactive examples
Not directly, perhaps, but the Law of Large Numbers says that views-per-download are very probably statistically derterminable, and can be estimated with high accuracy.

Otherwise, this is the same problem print newspapers have; how many readers per copy, seeing what adverts, how many times? This can be modelled or assessed (e.g., by reader response codes / instrumented URLs) fairly readily.

No, I’m pretty sure most people don’t automatically distrust a page because it looks nice. You’re seriously overreaching

There’s tons of open source projects with nice looking sites. It’s one of those HN blind spots

You didn’t survey anyone either did you?
Demo or bounce. Too many note taking apps. What's your edge?

>You don't need to open a new tab, just reply to the email to take notes.

Why reply to an email when I can just open a new tab in my editor? These both seem to be the same level of effort. Landing page doesn't explain why this solution is better.

> We'll send you an email before your meetings with all the notes you've taken about all the people that are present at the meeting. Automatically figure out who you're losing touch with and reconnect! We have built an algorithm that analyses your email and calendar data to figure this out.

These features seem to be your edge. Give them a spot light with a demo. Maybe a user-flow that showcases these features to give people an idea of why this note taking experience is better for them.

> ...to the extent that twitter is influential, it's a topic that should be covered.

This is circular reasoning. It's only influential because journalists cover it. And they only cover it because "it's influential".

Journalists don't cover Social Media. They cover Twitter. They ignore Reddit, Imgur, Tumblr, etc. Those are all social media with approximately the same user base as Twitter (Reddit probably has more). But totally ignored by print journos.

Do you believe there are higher than normal levels of carbon present in the atmosphere that are the direct result of human activity?

Do you believe this carbon has an impact on climate?

Do you believe elevated temperatures worldwide is bad for the biosphere, causes species extinction, habitat destruction, etc.?

100% with you that FPTP was a mistake and should be rectified - I've seen some pretty good proposals of how ranked choice voting could work and would result in much more equitable outcomes.
The internet remembers everything applies much stronger to text than to rich media. I can still find a mention of myself from a 1983 newspaper article that has been duped across a bunch of content harvesters (and also on the way back machine’s view of the newspaper’s site).
> most countries at least from my experience allow private copying

Most countries in the west allow it in the American sense. Only a very limited few countries allow it in the sense of Spain and Switzerland.
If you define your own, say, repeat-until loop, can you use the built-in break and continue commands? Could you define a break-with-value command for the built-in loops?
I really don't think so - outside of the metro and city areas, Japan has no shortage of really rural areas. If anything I wonder if it can have to do with topology and vegetation (Sweden being flat in comparison and most of the fjäll are still quite campable due to sparse vegetation).

It's also a bit of chicken-and-egg thing with normalization in the culture - wherever you go in Japan you can generally find affordable accommodation not too far, whereas in Sweden it's more of a luxury.
I suspect you're probably just overthinking it WRT feeling inappropriate about hugging close with a friend. Hugs are relatively harmless, and most people who willingly engage in a hug aren't going to protest when they receive a solid one.
I feel like this lack of trust is a relatively new thing, in the last 25 years or so. I grew up in the US (suburban NJ, and later semi-rural MD) in the 80s and 90s, and it was completely normal for me to just yell "Mom, I'm going to Mike's!", hop on my bike, and ride down the street. When we lived in NJ I would walk to and from the school bus stop (maybe a half mile away) by myself every morning and afternoon.

Things took a turn for the weird by the time I was in college; one summer I wanted to take the bus up to NYC to visit a friend, and my mom (who, remember, had no problem with me just taking off on my bike when I was 8) was absolutely terrified that I'd be killed. She gave me her cell phone for the trip and insisted that I call her any time I were to leave or arrive somewhere. (This was all before 9/11.)

I don't remember any sharp change in her attitude toward this at any point, so I can only assume it was a gradual thing.
I think it is a universal human concept, but it is not available to every human. We have a very limited right to roam in England and Wales, and much less forest.

I see on TV people in Nordic countries camping by a lake and fishing for their dinner in complete solitude. I don't know where I could do that in the UK, except as some kind of paid bushcraft experience...or tresspassing!
This is fine if you enjoy it. Sometimes it's fun to build overkill solutions. The goal isn't the productivity gains, but to enjoy the process itself.
Ah, ok. Good points... So, I have been around awhile -- 6 presidential elections and many more smaller ones.. I got to thinking about this and I realized that at some point, the national conversation changed from 'who you vote for and why' to 'who you vote against and what horrible things will happen if they win'.

To be fair that kind of rhetoric has existed since even the earliest days of the US, but I think on the whole voting has historically been seen as something you DO rather than something you use to fight against. The change in balance is... worrying.
Stories are a port from Instagram, which is a copy of a Snapchat feature. Basically like "status message" in good ol' IMs, except a) made from pictures or videos, and b) self-destructing after 24 hours.

I personally hate them as a concept, but that's because I generally don't like transient things on the Internet. Given their popularity, however, I'm guessing that more than half of photo sharing activity on social media is through such self-deleting broadcasts, leaving no trace and no ability to catch up on it. Which is probably why the platforms like it - it exploits FOMO to keep you checking the app every day.
> but I really dislike pretending like we weren’t all using the program for the exact purposes the complaint laid out

Speak for yourself. I used it to pull down youtube videos to watch on a 14 hour plane ride over the pacific.
I disagree. If we bring earth into a state where Mars looks like the better alternative, then we deserve to go extinct.

Have you seen how Mars looks like? What the conditions are like? Temperature? Atmosphere? Radiation? Ecosystems (none)? Water (none)? Breathable air (none)? How could that ever be more inviting than earth?
It feels like it’s more catering to “deep in the woods” customers vs. “anything but Comcast et.al.” customers.

A great web-scraping architecture is the pipeline model similar to 3D rendering pipelines. |Stage 1|: Render and HTML, |Stage 2| Save HTML to disk, |Stage 3|: Parse and translate HTML to whatever output you need; JSON, CSV etc...

It's great if each of these processes can be invoked separately, so that after the HTML is saved, you don't need to redownload it, unless the source has changed.

By dividing scraping into; rendering, caching and parsing you save your self a lot of web requests. This also helps prevent the website from triggering IP-blocking, DDOS protection and Rate-limiting.

Sure, but sellers are inclined to shop around as well.

The seller has to agree on the price. You're hearing lots of unhappy sellers.
Is it a play on the name where they try to make the unicorn look like an ogre?
> The existence of the villages was known; their location wasn’t. The modern villages were named after the medieval ones, but aren’t necessarily in the same location.

How does that happen, though? What had happened that they had no records of but they have records of the names of the villages it rendered inaccessible?
Nobody said “distrust”.

Have you seen emacs? It ain’t pretty. But it’s effective and works for a certain type of person. This aesthetic fits the emacs aesthetic. If this site was too polished and pretty, people would expect a polished and pretty product.

It indicates it won’t be easy to use this product, and it works to attract the correct user. If it was beautiful, people would have different expectations for the tool. This design indicates it’ll require work to set up and understand.

In the same way this site would never work for a nice macOS app, a Panic site wouldn’t work for this tool.
Is this trying to be an open source COMSOL?
I don't think it would be appealing from people who could choose anywhere to live, there are cheaper places, places with lower taxes and so on. But for people with family in the area, within two hours of Chicago, the $15k, and the other more general benefits, lower real estate prices and taxes, less traffic etc, it could be a good reason to pick one of these cities to move to.

The service fundamentally can't support a high density of customers due to limited capacity per satellite. So yes, Starlink is not for people who already have cable in cities or even suburbs. Starlink is for rural areas, and (in the future) vehicles like boats or planes.

I always found it crazy that my grandparents would tell me how there would be a socialist bakery and then a protestant bakery.
I feel like the issue is the management of newbies and bullies “at scale”. The doers/users ratio is incredibly low online, may it be opensource projects, b2c e-commerce, and other online activities.
The web allows for that incredible ratio, letting us feel accessibility is the new normal where it is actually just an unsustainable burden that leads to poor users experience.

“Contempt” feels more like a consequence than a cause to me.

> We registered the trademarks as part of other process that we were not super diligent with

You accidentally attempted to register a trademark?

I have never heard of that. Either you are small enough that the non-trivial tediousness and cost of the process catches a lot of attention. Or you are large enough to have a general counsel overseeing a documented chain of approvals.
such companies with salaries under average market level wont work well due to
1. corporate bureacracy - managers usually are undercompetent and tend to ignore personal matters so team members might bully eachother
2. idealistic people usually have a couple of nuts loose in their heads, combine two or more such persons and you get problem for entire team - linux's coc is one example.
so nearly every org without really focused goal and means of it's following will go the mozilla way, the marissa meyer and such...
it will happen every time if managerial part ignore specifics of programmer work.

Learning Rust – A Twitter Thread
The even more general point is, why would the owners even care about the company rather than themselves?
I'm intrigued by Starpack/StarKit, the virtual file system and virtual time. Never used Tcl, so far, but I'm thinking about sacrificing a weekend to playing with it.
Having checked out both Roam Reserach and org-roam, I'm still surprised by the existence of the former.

The core idea is literally bolting backlinks on top of Workflowy. How is it you can make a business out of that? How is it that the idea is only now reaching viral popularity, even though its a rather obvious concept that had various well-known incarnations in the past (e.g. automated "pingbacks" on blogs in the 2000s), was fully conceptualized into an even better idea all the way back in the 1970s (Xanadu's transclusions), and probably traces its lineage all the way to ancient Sumeria. I sometimes don't understand the lifecycle of ideas and tools in our reality.

(That's not a jab at Roam Research folks. I congratulate them on building a successful piece of software. Though I'm not going to use it anyway, because I like to own my data.)
