The 4,500-Word Guide to Solving a Crisis Like You Were Paid to Do It

Most of us decently paid professionals could do something like that, whether it's working 15 hour weeks (might be hard to find something like that
) or working a contract for a few months each year or just quitting after working 37.5% of a normal career. That's my plan.

It would be especially possible if you lived similarly to how average people did in Keynes' day: e.g. smaller housing, limited car ownership, home cooked meals, simple hobbies. The beauty of it is you still can take advantage of new tech because it has become so cheap.
So your position is that Day labor and/or independent contracting is only predatory?

That people are incapable of looking at a situation and making a choice for themselves if the situation is good for them or not? They must always be protected by the government "for the greater good", and that government regulation is inherently good and noble?

Really?

because after the state of CA passed a law prohibiting independent contracting for a whole host of jobs, many lost 100% of their income, many others lost flexibility in the jobs and other adverse consequences from moving from Independent contracting to employee

Many people PREFER to be independent as it affords them flexibility and well independence they could not get if they were employee's

it is foolish and ignorant to claim that I have "low empathy with the less fortunate" simply because I prefer less authoritarian government, less regulation and more personal freedom (and responsibility)

It’s actually somewhat of a grey area due to net neutrality regulations. Those are EU-wide, but up to the local regulation authority to interpret, which means that a regulator in Portugal or Sweden says it’s cool, in The Netherlands that any music service (sadly not your own Plex) can apply to be delimited, and in yet another EU country it might be completely illegal.

I don't think this is such a bad thing. If AirBnB's role of the relationship isn't worth the premium you pay to cover taxes, that's a pretty strong argument that AirBnB isn't really providing much value and we'd be better off without a middleman in this relationship (I think for what it's worth that this probably isn't true, and people will happily pay 5-15% to be able to deal directly with AirBnB)

> I think it's more of an acknowledgment that Gödel's incompleteness theorem applies to any system of reasoning or knowledge

Godel's theorem is a limitation on any system of formal rules, but it's not the limitation I'm talking about.

> Even known true statements can't be proved all the way down --- at some point they have to rest on axioms that are assumed (or taken on faith).

This is a different limitation from Godel's theorem, but it's also not quite the limitation I'm talking about (though I think it's related to it--see below).

> I believe there is an objectively true worldview upon which objective moral values and duties rest

This is the limitation I'm talking about. Even if you have an objectively true view of the world, moral values and duties aren't just about the way the world is; they're about the way humans want the world to be. And human wants are subjective; if you and I disagree about how we want the world to be, there is no objective way to resolve our disagreement.
How do you do your stripe integration with your own application?
While stripe has this super good dashboard for you to utilize.. I know that your application ultimately should not be hard-dependent on 3rd party applications and thus you should be creating your own transaction entity, payment entity; to track your application's payment processes.

But just how much should entities should you be creating on your own application side when you are integrating with Stripe?

Would love to gather some thoughts on this.

I'm sure startups will try anything if they think they can make some money out of it. So do investors. The problem is such an endeavor just has to make more money that you put into it, not necessarily be a sustainable or above board business. They're not disrupting the sector they operate in, they're disrupting the way they can operate outside of the law and be agile enough to not get pinned down by it.

They'll try something, squeeze as much money as they can from wherever they can, see if "the cost of doing business" is low enough that they can even pursue the shady business model as a standard operating procedure, or else at least survive and grow until they can go semi-legit. They will rely on the fact that authorities have inertia so it takes time until someone catches up to their shenanigans, investigates them, comes with a decision, then they can fight for a while, delay the inevitable until they they're cornered, restructure their operations a bit, and the chase starts again. Companies like Uber are still shady businesses that in many countries operated outside the law for more time than they operated within its boundaries. But they gave deep pockets and where there's money, there's a way.

Not that much different from organized crime businesses that start off as being one stop shops for anything regardless of law and regulation, and may eventually be spun out into semi-legitimate businesses with more or less above board practices.
A lot of the early philosophy around CSS was in response to a world of nested tables and font tag soup managed across large websites with no build step. Similarly JS was sprinkled on and wholly additive. In that world separation along file type made perfect sense.

However when all your code is pre-processed before deployment, it opens the door to organizing your code in different ways. Because markup, appearance and behavior are all intimately intertwined, it’s an illusion that they can be meaningfully de-coupled.

For simple document based sites with a small number of styles and a large number of homogeneous pages the classic style is good. For large web apps there is a reason React and JSX is so successful-99% of the time the visual, structural and behavioral changes happen together so it makes sense for the code to be together. The reason Webpack is so successful is because at scale it’s really hard to identify dead HTML and CSS, but if you unify under one build paradigm you can get tree-shaking that could never be made reliable with a homegrown solution or enforced coding standards.

> Glad you refer to SGML, I thought XHTML was amazing at the time too, then HTML5 broke compatibility with everything.

HTML5 was explicitly designed for backward-compat with the large body of HTML4 (and earlier) content out there. And HTML5 can still be parsed using SGML, which as a superset of XML is every bit as powerful as XML, yet also has tag inference, attribute shortforms, and other minimization features dropped from the XML subset of SGML that are necessary for HTML, though. So there's no reason to be bitter about XML's demise on the web; I've even written a tutorial for XML workflows involving HTML integration or output using SGML [1].

[1]: http://sgmljs.net/docs/sgml-html-tutorial.html

> XML and attendant standards had also blossomed into fractal complexity.

Fully agree. It appears that once XML was out there, people wanted to apply it to each and everything. When markup is really only useful for semistructured text. In that department, you actually might find SGML much more useful, since not only can it deal with HTML, it can also parse markdown or other custom syntax (even JSON and s-exprs!), has built-in styling and transformation facilities capturing core CSS, and much more powerful templating and transclusion/fragment reuse mechanisms for actual text authoring and processing.

Perhaps adaptive edtech will enable greater use of variant notations? Two decades back, I did toy context where you could pull-down select the notation of a page, and mouseover to see alternate forms. Personalized notation can compromise communication, but like some students benefiting from Feynmanesce drawing of equations in multiple colors, variant notations might be used tactically, for targeted disruption of misconceptions and such.

Plus, the cost for cleanup for this kind of disaster is built into the price of each car/phone in the form of shipping costs, which include insurance costs. So while they contributed to the damage, they also contributed to the cleanup.

It would take a careful reading of the rules, but I think it is more likely that the wording would make it such that putting either king in checkmate would win the game.

So you could promote to king, but that would be a liability so it made no sense.

A better exploit would be to promote to your opponent’s king in a way that immediately puts it in checkmate.
Yeah, the circle constant is considered 'solved' and has been a well understood concept since... (googles) .. oh wow, 2560 BCE [0], with pi being used as the symbol for the last 400 odd years [1].

Yes the British MOD has a record of being very good at logistics [1]

"One country that has achieved an unparalleled level of efficiency and responsiveness in its logistics and sustainment activities is the United Kingdom (UK). The British Ministry of Defense (MOD) has wholeheartedly embraced outsourcing many of these functions to the private sector."

Also of interest:
"One of the primary reasons why the MOD is willing and able to enter into long-term PBL-based service and support contracts with private companies, not just British firms but global providers, is because of its attitude towards the private sector. The MOD views the private sector as a positive contributor to their mission. It works hard to establish a collaborative relationship. MOD officials are demanding and insist on adherence to contracting requirements. But they treat the private companies as partners, not adversaries."

> TSMC reckons its 3nm node will pack in somewhere north of 250 million transistors per square millimetre of silicon [...]

> TSMC is already producing chips for Apple’s iPhones on its new 5nm node, which is good for 173 million transistors per square millimetre [...]

3nm™: a transistor is 1 / 250e6 = 4e-9 square millimeters, which is sqrt(4e-9) = 63.2 nanometers by nanometers.

5nm™: a transistor is 1 / 173e6 = 5.78e-9 square millimeters, which is sqrt(5.78e-9) = 76.0 by 76.0 nanometers.

So is it reasonable to say that 3nm™ -- compared to 5nm™ -- is closer to 63.2 / 76.0 * 5 (nm™) = ~4.16nm™? Ie. a reduction in feature size of ~17%?
You can sort-of argue that there are examples of ethical milking if you just consider the direct action of milking, however if we look to the bigger picture of dairy production — which includes how the cow came to be and what the milk is intended for and why the cow needs to be milked — it becomes more difficult because dairy cows have been bred to produce more milk to the detriment of their health: you’d need to find an example of the more broad “ethical dairy production” and that’s a lot more difficult, as almost all dairy production builds on the unethical behaviour of the past.
Great news, I feel much safer now. Now I'm waiting for EU to completely ban computers, this way I will never be attacked by anyone online.

Same thing with cookie warnings. No normal person will read tons of legal text on every website they visit. And even if the normal person will read it, they won't be able to decline the cookies, because the site will not work.

Creating laws only to have laws will never work. It only creates cost for everyone in order to be compliant. And people always go where the cost is lower.

Yes then there are weasel words to deal with. Like on the voter fraud thing, lefty news keeps saying no evidence of "widespread" voter fraud.

This is why I now read both left and right news, because each side only gives you half the story.

> The purpose of their corruption is precisely so that they don't have to live with the consequences of their actions.

If they're local, they live there, so they can't avoid the consequences. The law of unintended consequences applies to corrupt officials just like it applies to everybody else. The reason corrupt officials in our current system can avoid those consequences is that they don't have to live in the places they govern. That's true even of many so-called "local" officials: mayors and city council members often don't live in the cities they govern.

> Not if the local people with power disallow it.

How are they going to prevent people from leaving? If the only resources they can draw on are local, their power will be too limited.

Basically, your picture of "local" seems to be the way "local" works in our current society, which allows localities that are politically favored by higher level governments to draw on resources from those governments. But that's not actaully local; it's the higher level, non-local governments using the lower-level governments as political tools.
