If you are wondering why readline (history) support is missing from the interpreter and how to add it: http://dhllndr.posterous.com/adding-readline-support-to-luaj...

Also, I just put a small functional programming library for Lua on GitHub about an hour before reading this: https://github.com/davidhollander/fn Here's an example of how to create a sum function with Fold Left and an addition function:

require'fn'
sum = fn.partial( fn.foldl, function(a, b) return a+b end)
x = sum(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
print(x)

No that really wouldn't lower overall costs because it wouldn't immediately add much value in most cases. There would be some long term value later since that additional coded clinical data could be mined for clinical research to determine which treatments are most effective. But no one is willing to pay an additional $10 (or whatever) per patient encounter to get that data.

at the top places, two-thirds of the students come from the top quartile and only 5 percent come from the bottom quartile

Whenever I see a statistic like that, the first question I want answered is: what is the trend over time? Maybe this is actually a big change with only 1% coming from the bottom quartile 10 years ago, indicating the future situation, etc.
> > presumably the US govt is better off making the sale

>This is a remarkably large assumption.

Not at all. If follows from the prerequisites for that case. If you don't agree with those prerequisites, you choose the other case.

> > In the "unfair price" scenario, Exxon can't buy a govt that isn't for sale.

> So now you've defended Exxon from being the charge of thievery.

Since they're not guilty of thievery (in this case), why are you offended by them being defended from the charge? Would you have the same reaction if it was "Happy Puppy Company"?

> Great, the government officials who made the sale were the "real" thieves,

Yes (and in more ways that one).

> and Exxon was "only" their associate in crime.

Not at all.

We're assuming that govt officials have the relevant authority. If they exercise it poorly ....

I'll assume that you think that govt "lets" Exxon do bad things. Let me point out that the fault for that is entirely govt.

To be fair, a govt that does certain things is highly likely to do bad things as well. If doing those bad things bothers you, perhaps you might want to stop govt from doing the precursors.

Removing the 'technical' aspect leaves the company mainly intact. Warby Parker uses the internet as a method to drive down costs. If it used mail-order catalogs it would be virtually the same company. Same for Amazon (ignoring AWS), Netflix (ignoring instant watch) and Groupon. All of these could have worked perfectly fine as mail or telephone-order companies but would have not been as efficient. Foursquare, Basho and Broadcom, on the other hand, become relatively meaningless without their core technologies.

You need to check Indian traffic to understand why self-driven cars cannot be used.
Many similar robberies happened in other Eastern European countries. It's not as simple as X paid Y to get Z. As your example alludes, it's much more subtle than this. Closer to you scratch my back, I'll scratch your friend's of friend's of a friend's later. There are sufficiently enough layers that a normal person's this-can't-be-right sensors go off or it's simply too complicated to piece together with a reasonable amount of effort. Add a pinch of corruption in the judicial system and you got yourself a fertile ground for highway robbery. And don't think the same thing doesn't happen in the US... maybe a bit more subtle, but less and less so from what we've seen in the last few years.

The Lance Armstrong metaphor is painfully accurate - using unethical methods to win. To me this is the essence of what is wrong with a perspective that prizes results and disregards moral imperatives. We see it in the celebration of Zuckerberg's Facebook despite the well-established fact that Zuckerberg did things like break into journalist emails and call his users "dumb fucks" for trusting him. Celebrating the era when Microsoft was dedicated to crushing competition by leveraging its market power and OS monopoly to lock everyone else out is to celebrate something which should be condemned.

Your condescending tone is noted and unappreciated. I would like to clarify that I am specifically speaking about tracking usage of the site for purposes of conversion optimization and usability improvements. I strongly disagree with your assumption of a reasonable right to privacy when you are using my website. If you choose to use my site what gives you the right to preclude me from tracking what you are doing on my website.
He stretches the point a bit far. When he's talking about "isolation" broadly, I can maybe see the point -- lack of role models, mentors, references, people to help get your foot in the door at your first job. (I have no idea if this is "what really keeps poor people poor.")

Then he uses "network" to mean what you get at Harvard or Yale, and suggests that this is a gating factor, that masses of people have everything they need to rise out of the bottom quartile, if only we could give them a letter of admission to Harvard. This seems odd.

This seems like a good illustration of the principle: "Ideas are worthless. Execution is what matters."

Paypal had the idea first and a good 10 years worth of trying to make it work (payments from mobile devices was, after all, their first product, even pre-dating online payments). And in this case, they even had some of the same team working on the idea, but they just couldn't make it happen. Google could, and did, so they'll win.

I can understand why PayPal would be upset. But really this just strikes me as another reason why we shouldn't get too worked up about the value of ideas.

I found this really helpful. I'm a little surprised at the inconsistency of the asset pipeline deployment though. I guess we're all supposed to use erb templates if we intend to use it and include images in our stylesheets?

It strikes me as really strange that they would allow certain functionality which you would get used to in development (images in stylesheets that are automatically matched to assets), then have that completely break when you precompile for production.

Book review: the Smashing Book 2
In February, Smashing Magazine officially released their latest print book project, The Smashing Book 2, and they were kind enough to send me a review copy at no charge. This review does give the book some valuable exposure, this is primarily going to be a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of the book.
This whole line of arguments is very strange to me.

I think it would be nice to have high expectations for our highest colleges to admit a large amount from the lowest quartile of society, but this is not the natural next step in the process of solving poverty. The next step is how do we get more of those individuals to graduate from high school, go to vocational schools, etc. This is just another example of the intellectual elite trying to overlay their standards on problems, resulting in impractical policies and priorities, that do nothing to solve underlying problems.
Wow, all those words and yet nothing really was said. I think all the microbrew and coffee shop amateur poetry nights in Portland have finally settled in.
I don't think it's that much of a stretch. When you're poor and you're around other poor people there is no one there to recognize your potential and bring you into the fold (job, connections, inform you of opportunities available). You're just a clever person other poor people know.

There's a big difference between knowing small business owners in the neighborhood and knowing friends of wealthy and or well connected people. When you're poor you are isolated. You have to do everything from scratch and it takes a LONG time to figure out by yourself, what generations of people have already figured out.

The Harvard example could easily be a proxy for other institutions frequented by the elite.
I try to stay educated about modern physics, but this article leaves me scratching my head. The idea that time is just a measure of change, and all we really have is sequences of observations and a causal structure is not new at all. I have seen "timeless" proposals (for instance Julian Barbour's ideas) that seem both more radical and better supported than what I can understand of this summary of the work.

I can't tell if they are proposing something new, or just trying to change some of the vocabulary and mental models we use for current physics.
But of course corporations don't deserve freedom of speech. They use their speech to influence the electoral process. When G.E. runs ads supporting candidates, they undermine the principles of democracy. Except for the New York Times, NBC, the ACLU, and all the others whose speech I often agree with, corporate rights should be tightly controlled and regulated, and you should only be able to create corporations that create speech that legislators can deal with.

Privatization in theory is not theft, the same way communism sounds great on paper. In practice, however, when you're dealing with the level of corruption that was / is present in former communist countries, you can pretty much assume that every privatization involved theft. For somebody who lived through the process is as obvious as saying the US government is influenced by corporations.

That's definitely part of it too. I hear (and I would guess everyone can imagine) that prison is excruciatingly boring. So having something to do can help a lot, also working a job can be part vocational training for when one get's out of prison.

Another factor is that when you're in prison, the littlest things become of utmost importance. Life or death (literally) battles are fought over Twinkies and Doritos...so if you have a chance

Very true; I realized this myself a couple of months ago, and reorganized my blog as follows:

- main page shows categories and a chronological list of posts (I don't post that often; if you do, maybe list the last 30-50 only ?) in the right sidebar

- each category gets an index-page with introduction and 3 articles highlighted, and a a list of all articles in the category in the left sidebar. The highlighted articles (new and old) should change every now and then, maybe somewhat depending on "the latest fads" ?

- most important (IMHO); go back to your old articles and update them, especially hyperlinks - this will also aid the discovery of "evergreen content"

In addition, you should probably also use tags (I don't, but that's just because I'm lazy and don't have that many articles).

You may also collect related articles in e-books (I've done it with one of the categories, but it is a lot of work) - less SEO value, but maybe more "reader value" ?

(personally, for blogs like swombats and pg, I often follow the timelines and read through the old stuff, bookmarking or saving the "golden nuggets" once and for all)

> In a heterogeneous ecosystem, much like Web is, it'd be much more productive to have a typed, extendible and validatable format like XML.

XML is not any more or less typed, extendible or validatable than JSON. They are both serialisation formats that make you put data into their own structure, a tree with attributes for XML and lists and dictionaries for JSON.
Exactly two types exist in XML: tree and text. And exactly six types exist in JSON: list, dictionary, string, number, boolean and null.

What XML has that JSON doesn't is a solution for automating validation called XML Schema.

Indeed, it is time to write off the Web. I didn't like the Web anyway; I was happy back in 1991, with email, usenet, FTP, Archie, Gopher and Veronica. That was all we needed. The early Web looked interesting at first, but after a few years it became quickly overwhelmed by commercialism. The past years have even been worse, with the big-brotheresque webtracking of individuals and the erosion of online privacy. I wonder what will appear when the Web finally has become unusable.

This sounds like someone wrote a highly theoretical physica paper that got filtered through a journalist who had absolutely no idea what it was about, but thought it was cool, and summarized it in very vague and confused terms.

There are a lot of vague philosophical papers without much point to them. Until someone comes up with concrete evidence that this one is different - for instance a specific testable experiment - I would suggest that there is little point in paying much attention to this. Yes, I know that the paper supposedly suggested several such experiments. But the ones mentioned in the summary can ignore time because they are imprecise enough that the speed of light can be regarded as instantaneous. Where more refined versions can be performed, the speed of light shows up as an explicit factor and time dependence is important.
