I wrote to Sen. Wyden regarding this potential issue. Wanted to share it here as well. I believe this is relevant as it could push recovery back further if ignored. Please see Dr. John Campbells video explaining potential effects if you'd like to learn more.
It would be neat to let people vote up and down to give some social value component.
It is my experience good managers know how to filter through employees to find ones that are manageable. Perhaps not at the time of hiring, but they know how to move people off their teams that they know are not good members. I consider myself a decent manager and built strong teams of people that would still work for me or act as references, but even then, I probably failed with half the people I hired.

They really need to get around to either adopting the Glimpse[1] name, or dropping their current one for something else.

The project's name makes it hard to recommend it in a professional context even when it would get the job done well.

I feel the same about most pundits and billionaire "visionaries" touted today, to be honest. Including Elon.

Using a PhD as a gateway into applied ML is so horrifically misguided I hardly know where to even begin debunking it.

PhDs are one especially crappy way to prove you have the intellectual chops to engage with ML. There are far more direct, practical, and expedient alternative paths to get there.

Importantly, the number of people who were perfectly capable of doing a PhD but chose not to (because, frankly, it's a very bad deal) vastly dwarfs the number of people who stuck around in academia and obtained one. Additionally, my observation at several major tech companies is that PhDs have a bent of mind that is roughly orthogonal to the pursuit of real business value.
It's also worth mentioning that Ant securitized its loans, creating a CDO-like structure. Pretty risky stuff, per my limited knowledge on finance.
This is part of the reason why I like type driven programming because it forces you to suss out all those edge cases up front and avoid most major debt altogether but it gets carried away too often. More of an ideal...
"Homer's Enemy" is funny but I felt the tone was off a little. It was just a bit too cruel to Grimey (as he liked to be called) in the end for me to consider it one of their best.
I felt like it might be mind-altering for the first 90% of the book, but it seemed like the ending really fell through.

It’s assumed these people are renting. Homeowners only really face property taxes which take extreme shifts to become unaffordable. Even then owners can generally remove equity to pay them for years to decades.

Yeah it's a nice idea, sure. No way does it ever happen. Old people aren't going to trade a $1500 a month average SS payout plus Medicare for a $1000 a month UBI plus a single payer system with longer wait times. Single moms on welfare aren't going to trade their various benefits (housing, food stamps, transportation, cell phone, Medicaid etc. for both her and the children) for a $1000/mo. UBI plus single payer healthcare (most UBI programs I've seen have reduced or no payouts for children).
I had calculated the square of the number of words in the dictionary and was disappointed to see that some were missing on the site.

I think the home-printing industry is on its last legs. More and more documents don't need to be printed. I haven't owned a printer in years and when I must print something I hop in the nearest (laser-)print shop for peanuts. HP is just trying to make the last few bucks before closing down their print shop.
Everything will go out of the window the moment the new space race truly begins. Whoever colonises Mars first at a large enough scale (that is self sustaining) has a tremendous first mover advantage. Anything earth can send will not be able to arrive in a timely manner such that it would not be detected. Short of faster than light travel, it is close to impossible to take down a planetary adversary with current technologies (one possibility would be a gravity tractor and slamming a massive asteroid into Mars, but the second and third order effects of doing so is very very dangerous).

Agreements like the Outer Space Treaty primarily bind weak nations. If US, China, (and eventually, India) truly believe that space dominance is critical to national security, then the treaty will become similar to the nuclear weapons agreements, an exclusive club for those who has the power to do so and everybody else will be kept out under threat of war and sanctions.

Lawyers too sleep well at night because of rough men willing to do violence on their behalf, it is just sometimes they forget that the armed enforcers of international law are sovereign powers who can rewrite the very laws should they win.

> localStorage is not durable

Side tangent: Why in 2020 do we find the state of localStorage to be acceptable?

There's two problems that I see with localStorage:

- It's too easy for someone to blow it away and lose data for a web app

- Not enough capacity to be useful for a lot of things. (10 megabytes per domain)

The design of localStorage is basically flawed, IMO. It should have been two things: volatileStorage and permanentStorage. volatileStorage would basically be exactly what localStorage is today, being very limited and not requiring any permissions. permanentStorage would be like localStorage except it would require explicit permission, allow unlimited storage, and would be more difficult to accidentally delete(separate delete dialog from Clear History).

As far as I know, we don't have anything like my proposed permanentStorage outside of web extensions, which leaves localStorage in a weird area where it's only really useful for local app settings, even though such sparse data is easy enough to just store on a server in the first place. It would still be useful for truly offline-first apps, or apps that don't require accounts, but then this space of apps is still crippled by limited storage capacity.
Just imagine when we have First Contact and inform them that we've already declared their planet subject to the laws of Earth. And that furthermore, under those laws, they're not allowed to claim or own any part of their home planet.
> Space law is an established rulebook likely to undergo some high-octane developments in coming decades. While Elon is welcome to the table, he can’t keep sucking the air from the room. It leaves us space lawyers just shouting into the void.

This is quite the post, where space lawyers think the law isn't possession and force projection. Without force behind a law, they are just words. Mars will be independent the moment they no longer need Earth for resources, decided by whomever governs Mars.
I think you're confusing "Cape Feare" with "You Only Move Twice," the Hank Scorpio episode. The former is a Sideshow Bob episode.

I'm sure you're not aware but quoting Matt Ridley is deeply ironic given he was chairman of a UK Bank with an innovative business model. Quoting Wikipedia:

"Under non-executive chairman Matt Ridley and Chief Executive Adam Applegarth, Northern Rock had a business plan which involved borrowing heavily in the UK and international money markets, extending mortgages to customers based on this funding, and then re-selling these mortgages on international capital markets, in a process known as securitisation.

On 14 September 2007, the bank sought and received a liquidity support facility from the Bank of England, to replace funds it was unable to raise from the money market. Reporting of this complex scenario led to panic among individual depositors, who feared that their savings might not be available should Northern Rock go into receivership. The result was a bank run – the UK's first in 150 years – where depositors lined up outside the bank to withdraw all of their savings as quickly as possible, particularly since many others were doing the same."
Sometimes something can seen as an obvious or easy choice of action after the time for decision has passed, but when an event or emotion first strikes, that choice is often obscured by passions or require more effort than you want to expend.

That's where the words of previous Stoics, or a recent Podcast, or advice from /r/stoicism helps many of us to make that choice at that moment, before it has become obvious or easy in hindsight.
In reasonable jurisdictions, the lifetime of the product will be defined reasonably. The lifetime of a car will never be 3 months nor 3 years.

For the average cheap-ish product, the lifetime is defined as "at least 2 years" in the EU, at least for consumers.

If someone announces EOL too soon and the product is popular enough, someone will complain formally. This combination however rarely happens.
Everything's a legal vacuum if you have a big enough gun.

Edit: I'm not saying how things should be... I'm just pointing out the obvious
I wish I remembered. What I'm referring to, though, is that income and cap gains tax things based on the amount of money being made.

A transfer tax says, "oh, the owner change - here's the same tax for a money losing project as an extremely profitable one". It's just disincentivizing change.

This tax is even being talked about because things like CA Prop 15 being voted down leave schools/cities underfunded by giving long time land owners a massive tax break.

We need to make the system more fair not just tax everything that moves.
And in the meantime... things are going to be messy. Just like between American colonists and the British Empire. Hopefully we can avoid unnecessary bloodshed this time around, if and when the time comes for Mars to establish its independence.
Still work in progress and the topics are not too in-depth... but it's interesting, thanks.
> Every human needs Earth right now.

I think this will be the case for an incredibly long time, if not forever.

In the face of climate change or an extinction-level event like the one at the end of the Cretaceous period, even the bottom of the ocean would be a more habitable environment than Mars would.
Yes that is why I comment here too. So that people know there are others like them. Don't care if I lose the karma.
Wow, that splash screen is so bad that it wraps around the scale and is actually amazing. I admire not trying to compete with Adobe's colorful, highly polished but extremely boring splash screens.

What pronunciation dictionary did you use?

I've been looking for a good one that 1. includes variant pronunciations, and 2. distinguishes all phonemes, e.g. considers Rosa's and roses distinct. So far I haven't found any that fulfill these criteria.
Are you looking at production code or pedagogical examples? For the former, it's totally normally to use compiler-specific features. If you are scared off by that, you'd be better served reading a book that introduces things little by little.
They also lived in an ice covered world full of lethal megafauna instead of a post ice age world with fertile lands ready for agriculture and smaller animals.
May I ask for the straightforward introduction recommendations in place of GP? I found your comment very interesting -- my understanding of either is still very rough, but as I was reading through Feeling Good[1], I had the feeling that on a practical level, both were attempts at finding out "how to take it as it comes" (excuse the hasty reduction). I did not know of the direct link between them, thanks for that bit of knowledge.

I also recommend using your own print server (except I had better luck with a Ubuntu box running CUPS), when everyone at home moved to laptops and smartphones it added 5-10 years to the life of a "dumb" USB printer. (And it was an old enough HP that it didn't have the same DRM or planned obsolescence build quality issues)
Go to Mars. Build a colony that does not need anything from Earth, declare sovereignty. I can see no reason if some group of people were able to do this they could not declare their rights to be free from a planet they do not live on. At that point it would be up to Earth (anyway who is Earth here, who do I call to speak to the president of earth?) to enforce compliance with their sovereignty and at the point that Mars could stand alone, I would think that they would have mastered the art of astroid capture and movement which could make things bloody pretty quickly.
Let's not pretend that any of these outer space treaties crafted in the 20th century and agreed upon by no one will be worth a damn when we are actually at a place where we can colonize planets. We have a hard time enforcing a climate agreement, and people think Mars will be governed by mutual understanding between countries/corporations?

One thing to help fix this is for the VC community to become more comfortable with (and even encourage) funding rounds which allow founders and early employees to get some liquidity from their equity. Taking a company from idea to IPO usually takes the better part of a decade (or longer), and it's pretty unfair to ask people who have already risked a lot to keep living on peanuts and hoping that some unforeseen situation which may be largely beyond their control doesn't send the value of their equity to zero before they get to IPO.
You could switch to more open versions of Android like Graphene/Lineage etc that are based on AOSP and use free software. F-Droid is a FOSS app store for FOSS apps, and it has quite a few good apps, including AntennaPod, which is an excellent podcatcher and my podcasting app of choice.

From some of your other comments, I gathered that you aren't heavily into using smartphones, so there's no reason you have to subscribe to the _full_ experience of it, proprietariness and all. Our devices are only as complicated as we allow them to be.

I totally understand if you want something that works out of the box too, the rest of us who would like a functional experience with the creature comforts of smart-devices have to go out of our way to debloat and tweak things because these experiences are not yet readily available for us.
Exactly, the existing outer space treaties will have about as much effect on Martian exploration as the Treaty of Tordesillas[0] had on the colonization of the Americas. Perhaps even less - at least Spain and Portugal mostly abided by the treaty, even if the rest of Europe didn't, mostly because Spain wasn't too interested in Brazil and Portugal had Eastern Hemisphere colonies to exploit, whereas if Elon Musk has the only economically practical spaceship to go to Mars, he can pretty much dictate the rules.

Who truly owns Mars will be decided by whoever has the power to enforce their claim. (Realistically I think any Mars colony would be too dependant on Earth to ever call themselves independent.)
Or is it a brilliant move to justify the introduction of Ant in NYSE/NASDAQ ?

It is hard to imagine that Ma did not anticipate the possibility of the regulator reacting to his speech. If he did anticipate, then it becomes part of the plan. If he did not anticipate it, then it would be a mistake.
For Black Friday, every year, Walmart would offer the same HP Deskjet color printer for $20.

A cartridge of one color would cost $20 as well. So, I’d just buy a new printer.

And then finally I got a laser printer by Brother. And I stopped buying a printer ever year, since ink was cheaper than the printer.
A minimal amount is preferred. But at the end of the day, it’s a very good tool to deal with allocation of resources. It’s also the definition of politics.

People do it all the time with friends and relatives. You don’t up front tell someone they’re only worth 10 min of your time, or you prefer visiting someone else in your free time. But you make up excuses or stretch some truths to give both parties plausible deniability, which allows everyone to save face.

Workplace politics is the same. You have a limited amount of time and energy to devote, so you will have to sacrifice some coworker’s or manager’s priorities for other colleague’s priorities. But you’d be foolish to tell them up front. Enter workplace politics, where you have to figure out whose aligned with who and for what purpose do you can figure out your next move.

The more scarce/valuable the resource, the more politics comes into play. And if it gets too scarce/valuable, it will end up in violence/war.

Being able to navigate these signals is a crucial factor to succeeding in society, in my opinion.
The solution to companies continuously eroding our rights to own things by first moving to licensing for digital goods long ago, and now moving to licensing for physical goods, is not to just ignore it and use another company, because them doing this allows them to extract more money than they otherwise wood, making this a lucrative strategy. Strategies that make money don't go away.

The way to deal with business practices that harm the consumer or public is to regulate or legislate them in some way. This is why we don't allow child labor. We didn't just tell people "well, choose a company that doesn't employ little children".

I'm way more upset with Youtube than I am with the scammers.

Things like this will go on indefinitely so long as the controversy around fake animal rescues isn't big enough to upset advertisers. I would even go as far as to wager that commenting on these scams probably carries a greater risk of impacted ad revenue. Can't have family-friendly advertising on a channel with a reputation for exposing the dark underbelly of the internet.

I like working in tech, but moments like these really get me down.

A major reason for not shipping GTK3 port, which was largely completed a long time ago, is that GIMP 2.x has a stable plugins API and GTK2+ is exposed in said API. At the same time there has been other major revamps of the API with changing image processing layer to use GEGL. It was decided to release both breaking changes as GIMP 3.x, instead of breaking first the one, then the other.
I believe an example of where binding differs from assignment is if you define a function which references a binding in the outer scope, the create a new binding with the same name in the outer scope, the value inside the function does not change:
a = 1
f = fn -> a end
f.() # returns 1
a = 2
f.() # still returns 1
