>>Why isn't Amazon hiring fewer workers right now? Is the board wasting money on workers that it doesn't need?

We can't prove that it's not hiring fewer workers than it otherwise would have. In the absence of the ability to run a controlled experiment on how a minimum wage affects Amazon behavior, we can only trust in Economics, the same way we trust in what epidemiology tells us about the efficacy of vaccines, and assume that a larger volume of people would be hired without an artificial floor on the price of labor.

>>A) no one is talking about price controls on final products, they're talking about price increases on one of the inputs.

You're talking about a price control on manual services in general, i.e. labor.

>>B) on the subject of wages and worker prices, minimum wage increases have been shown on multiple occasions to increase net welfare.

No they haven't. Studies on minimum wage cannot conclusively show anything, because they are not controlled, and minimum wages are too low to affect a significant number of jobs.

Meta-studies suggest that minimum wage tends to be harmful, just as you'd expect, though these are not definitive for the reasons mentioned.

>>and basic economic principles is that in Capitalism, price is what people will pay, not what a product costs to produce.

Yes I agree with that, but I didn't make the counter-argument, another commenter did.

>>Possible, but definitely not guaranteed.

Nothing is guaranteed in economics, but we should err on the side of basic economics in the absence of certainty and proof.

Where are there online communities for people into this kind of tech sub-culture? Most Indie Hacker type communities seem to eventually attract a critical mass of "Hustle Boys" and most startup communities tend to be dismissive of anything that doesn't have hyper-growth potential. It makes sense that a large number of tech entrepreneurs live between these two extremes. Where do they hang out?

>Your position seems to be that Python packaging is a mess for non-specific reasons

No, for very specific reasons. Historical cruft, too many competing tools (from pip to conda, and from venv to poetry, not to mention setuptools), conceptual garbage like wheels, pths, etc., non-movable virtual environments, and so on.

>The problem we're talking about here is what happens when you get a new build of the language itself. This is also true of most other dynamic languages unless you manage to avoid using any sort of native code linked against the language runtime.

And yet node handles this much more elegantly (with C++/gyp modules). And minor releases should absolutely no need this.

Just to add a bit to it or TL;DR some bits: once personal data leaves you, it becomes out of your control, we should be aware of this. The Government may even step in and whatnot, but the information is still out there.
You might have missed my point.

The fact that Germany has bad internet is completely unrelated to the manufacturers of equipment that German telcos use.

And of course, you should not compare next gen access infrastructure with xDSL, as they are not mutually exclusive, and all countries have areas with degraded infrastructure on old technology, but also new infrastructure on new technology.

This is, again, completely unrelated to who makes the telco equipment.

Both tracks by Atch (https://soundcloud.com/atch-music/overyou and https://soundcloud.com/atch-music/freedom) state:

I mean "let me upgrade you for only $499" is pretty standard Apple, why are people so surprised?

The base capacity is 64 GB now, but lots of phones of 32 GB and even 16 are still usable (the original iPhone SE, for instance, was sold in a 16 GB version and runs the latest iOS).

These older phones are way more common outside of the US and even just outside of the SFBA where not everyone buys a new $1000+ phone every 2 years.
Sorry, but I still don't think you're right.
In fact, your understanding doesn't sound like anything I've heard from anyone else. The link doesn't give examples of what can be, but what is personal data.

"Personal data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable living individual. Different pieces of information, which collected together can lead to the identification of a particular person, also constitute personal data."

This says something about the data, and how it relates to a person in itself – not what practical ways you have in a certain context, limited only to other information you have immediately available in that same context. It's about whether the individual is identifiable – the ICO says [0]:

"You should take into account the information you are processing together with all the means reasonably likely to be used by either you or any other person to identify that individual."

Otherwise, this next part wouldn't make sense:

"Personal data that has been de-identified, encrypted or pseudonymised but can be used to re-identify a person remains personal data and falls within the scope of the GDPR."

It isn't an issue of whether you're able to identify the person given only the information you have available – but whether the candidate can be theoretically identified.

Different conditional expressions make different choice in the same situation, then you need to choose what conditional expression should be in the program.
This article is based on his book Uncertainty (2016), which is a collection of various arguments about probability and statistics. Some of his arguments in the book are fairly well presented and some of them I agree with (not perfectly overlapping sets).

His view of probability is sort of a combination of objective Bayesianism and logical probability. He argues that all probability is conditional on some evidence, so it is meaningless to talk of the probability of a proposition in isolation from others. Further, since probability analysis is based on relations between propositions, it is actually a part of logic.

He belongs to the group who want to see hypothesis testing banished from statistics. The vast literature on that issue is easy to find.

The big change he wants to see in statistics is to follow a more machine learning approach. Develop models against a sample set, then test them against a testing set rather than against some ideal distribution.

I think it's a very cultural aspect. In the US you have the waiters coming up to you, asking if you liked your meal, would you like something else. In Nordic countries people prefer to be left alone, which might be interpreted as not caring. If you were to go to Greece, you could be getting the same experience, with the owner himself walking around the tables and asking what you thought of the meal.
Imho the September was really kicked into overdrive with smartphone and mobile Internet adoption facilitating the social media hype.

Prior to that people would at least need to sit down and dedicate attention to whatever they were doing online at their desktop.

It required at least some technical base knowledge.

While nowadays pretty much everybody can, and will, pull out their smartphone even during very short breaks: It' all short attention span, relegated to devices were multi-tasking is way more of an hassle, which means people are also way less likely to do research on whatever they are discussing.

It's gotten to a point where in many places writing anything longer than Tweet length is considered something bad, as most peoples attention span just can't cope with long-form forum posts anymore.
No, I don’t think this is true! “Curing cancer” is short for making progress on many aspects of many diseases. There are so many people doing productive and rewarding work that tangibly improves and lengthens lives. And alongside those, there are ineffective and dysfunctional projects that in retrospect were worse allocations of funding and skill.

Not sure about ruby, but most of the languages I know about, C#, javascript, php, etc don't need virtualenv because they install packages in a project locally (and globally if required). so envs of one project do not clash with another.

while python install packages globally and only globally. so a virtualenv is needed to isolate different projects from one another

As i said - over here, not in USA. we use completely different system.

There is a central record for each separate local government(located at the regional judicial office), with copies being sent to up the chain.

But the thing is - over here whatever is in that local deed book is the current legal state of the property.

Licensed notary is obliged by law to check the current legal state of the property, verify identity of the ones making the change, and do the change itself - but due to sorry state of the books first part isn't always reliable.

I am also not proposing a solution for USA problems, but for my country.

Publishing to maven central isn't particularly difficult, but it is a high friction process.

You have to file an issue on a JIRA board.

Provide proof of owning a namespace(dns txt record, or github).

Wait for a human to review and approve the ticket.

Create a PGP key.

Publish the PGP key to public key servers.

Submit your builds via the webapp.

Wait for the verification process to complete.

Have it fail a bunch of times randomly, because despite uploading your PGP key to as many of the keyservers as you could, there seems to be a huge key replication delay between keyserver instances, and the verification process can't find the key published.

Once verified, actually publish the build.

Most of the pain is one off, once you have gone though it, publishing new builds can be automated.

The PGP signing is pointless, you can sign with any key you like, and change the key as often as you like, just so long as the key is published.
10 years in the industry, I have never heard of anyone checking the signatures on maven artifacts.
You strangely assume that the advertisement budget will remain constant in a world where advertisement is less effective.

My understanding is that this advice wasn't based on keeping Coronavirus numbers low but on reducing the damage caused by economic loss to parts of the worlds population.

Quite frankly yes.

Because in most cases, speaking from experience, after model change they will be using a new model without doing proper conversion of old data. This happened to cadastral data over here - new schema required some fields explicitly, while old data did not have them digitized, and country-wide system was made with such assumptions. It does not work to this day properly.

Archive the old chain, deploy the new one with migrated latest state from the old chain transformed to new model. keep working.

My mentor at a small ISP in the early 2000s had friends and sites like this. I even remember Monkey.org specifically. I honestly feel like I grew up in the ruins of the old internet - too young to be a old beard and too old to be a digg/Reddit user and far too old to be a Twitter-er. Quake was too old and half-life was too new. I’ve always wanted to write about my lack of community - a sysadmin after sysadmins went extinct and the oldest of the devops - but I fear like the subject of the essay - no one would be around to read it.

I miss the old goons I grew up idolizing. Wonder where they are now - with their children and their CTO positions.

Don’t take community or friends for granted. Y’all Monkeys are luckier than you know.

as i said - I'm more interested in a immutability of the whole chain, without any backdoors to modify old data because - speaking form experience - that leads to way more problems when dealing with local governments.
Yeah, I am not leaning towards either way stubbornly, I am open minded about it, I just know that many places really only just changes the visibility. In any case, thank you for the link!

I've been there in two projects, both of which took far longer to build and neither of which ended up with anywhere near the amount of traffic or need to build things using that architecture.

That said, I had a project last year where we used a serverless platform for a product / ecommerce platform (Gatsby, Netlify, Contentful, Commercetools, JS/TS) where it worked pretty well.
