> Advocates of much higher minimum wages should understand that the eventual consequence will be automating many jobs out of existence

That's been proven not to be the correlated in various studies. Similarly, there's a huge discussion regarding minimum wage in the US, while actually minimum wage adjusted for inflation went down significantly over the last few decades.

Automation happens in any case, especially with technology continuously getting cheaper.

Anecdotal: In e.g. Netherlands the minimum wage is lower if you're 15 until 21. Different amount until you're 21 or so. As a result supermarkets often fire anyone over 18 while pretending it isn't about the age. The minimum wage is already extremely low for 15-18, raising it would encourage more people to work in supermarkets instead of the current situation. Further, supermarkets are fully focussing on self-checkout. Despite the super low minimum wages.

It’s the right move rhetorically- the issue is too emotional and tied up with identity, at least in the US. This article delivers a message that could be treated as supporting climate denialism in a package that lets people on both of the issue read it without emotional triggers.

I’d love to have seen my take away though- current and past investments in regulation and technology have had an effect on carbon emissions. Future investments in regulation changes and technology may reduce it more. The flattening of the emissions curve didn’t just happen by itself.

We have something similar in my my organization's Fortran code. We have constants KI1, KI2, KI3, ... etc corresponding to (k)onstant integers 1, 2, 3, ... etc. Someone got the idea that hard-coded numbers were bad. All it does is make code harder to read to anyone unfamiliar with these conventions.
It'd be nice if Gmail could get with the times and add proper custom domain support to the consumer grade service. These email forwarding services aren't really ideal, and people shouldn't need to use them. They're never really going to have the tier of security as, say, Gmail.

More generally, the problem of email address exhaustion on consumer services is getting worse. Imagine being a kid making your first email account on Gmail or Outlook.com that doesn't look totally unprofessional. I got lucky to get full name @ gmail. (But, it's to Google's credit that they don't do the inane Yahoo approach of recycling addresses.)
My experience is directly opposite yours, funnily enough. I spend almost all my summers in Denmark and find people amazingly honest and friendly.

I think people are just people, wherever you go - neither more nor less honest than anywhere else (given the opportunity).

Even in Stockholm the 'local' police branches often close over the summer.

I've only needed to dial the emergency number twice (luckily) and both times I was placed in a queue. Another time when kids were smashing bikes on my street in central Stockholm on a warm summer evening, the police simply said there was no-one available to send.
Yeah I really agree here. Especially when it comes to coreutil implementations. I've seen multiple implemented under MIT/BSD and it always makes me a little sad.

I have access to an incredibly high quality easy to use router firmware in the form of OpenWrt by virtue of GPLd coreutils. I wish FOSS developers weren't so afraid of it these days
One thing that was darned frustrating (but in my opinion a good idea) with the UK driving licence test is that the theory test includes a section on hazard perception, where you watch a series of videos and click when you spot something that is turning into a hazard. You need to click at the point where there is enough evidence from what you can see that the hazard may exist, regardless of whether the driver actually needed to take any avoidance action. It teaches you to look ahead, not just respond to what is happening right now. And yes, I took two attempts to pass it.

These are things like a small child that you could previously see on the pavement has disappeared behind an obstruction (so may suddenly step out into the road). Or a football coming across the road from a playing field (a child may run after it). Or a car on a side street going at a speed that is inconsistent with them stopping at the junction.

This is life threatening and it means I cannot hold it. I also have to go to the bathroom several times per day. Obviously I take medications for it. But, I also have to get Botox injections to my bladder every 3 months, under general anesthesia (as in intubated).

So, seriously f*** everyone who thinks it is OK to charge people to use the bathroom. For me, it is life threatening to not use the bathroom right away.

My favorite was UI of a smartphone where a Hangup button when pressed will end a call and will display a contact screen of the other party with a Call button exactly at the position where the Hangup button was. So when you are about to end the call and the other side hangs up first, at the moment you pressed the Hang up button, it has turned into Call button and instead of hanging up you actually start to call them back.

It'd be fine if 'immutable' wasn't also very commonly used in the directly adjacent domains of systems and security architecture.
Most stores keep one person up front when they are not busy, the rest of the checkout clerks wonder the store looking for things out of place, stocking shelves, finding or customers to help. Each store has their own set of duties but for the most part there are plenty of tasks to do when people aren't waiting in line.

I was also going to say any job, but for a different reason.

It seems like you've already done your fun/risky career adventures. I feel like most of the "day job" stuff will seem boring to you now, because, well, most of it is boring stuff. Just apply to postings you think will pay you well and might have some I teresting part of it (business problem, tech, culture, etc).
Pity! I did look; only "-E" and "-s" diverge from the POSIX standard parameter-wise. But making significant changes to the pattern engine is probably not worth it.

It's a little bit... weird to think of "working in a grocery store" as indentured servitude. You know, not everyone has to be a software engineer or full-stack whatever. There's absolutely nothing wrong with working in a grocery store, it's a fine way to make a living!

lol as someone with a PhD in music and many years experience in industry and academia I can't rationalise such a reductive view of music as anything but lack of lateral thinking to imagine a world where western notation isn't king. I can think of heaps of examples where western notation absolutely isn't used- tabla bol, gamelan, zither/guqin/guzhen, indian classical music, just to name a few (and without being even slightly exhaustive). Western notation absolutely is used throughout the world but you can't say at all that it's used more than traditional notation systems because it's usually irrelevant for tuning systems- shruti in indian classical, for example- or rhythmic structures. I would be curious as to how exactly you can say with any certainty that it's more likely that people use western notation, seeing as it's categorically not true, even if we're not touching on the vast numbers of people who participate in oral traditions, either. I've also rarely worked session musicians who aren't orchestral who use anything other than charts and an enormous amount of the music we consume in the west is produced in a DAW or whatever without ever touching notation...
> I would also guess that, given that it's supposed to be clever enough to spot an incapacitated casualty to rescue, it might be clever enough to stop trying to rescue you if you attempt to swim away.

One would hope, but I wouldn't hazard a guess at that. It likely uses some type of ML/NN to spot an incapacitated person; there are a bazillion pretrained models that recognized people in images. I know of no models that recognize when someone is "trying to escape". I think that that would be quite a difficult problem to solve, except for possibly a number of panic buttons. But in general, guessing a person's intent programmatically is really hard.

This separation of ownership and control is discussed at length in James Burnham's The Managerial Revolution (1941). The central idea, if I'm not butchering it too badly, is that, as our technological society becomes increasingly complex, the owners of things no longer have control over them, and, therefore, the "owners" of those things no longer actually own them. The true owners, according to Burnham, are an emerging "managerial class" consisting of, e.g., bureaucrats, administrators, and technical managers.

Thanks! This is a very useful clarification. I wonder how the last paragraph relates to automotive. I guess they still want to be able to do updates.
Well, I think they are using a GA, based on:

> Machine learning-based algorithms subsequently determined which faces produced the greatest amount of activity for each person, then established which traits those faces had in common. Based on that data, the neural network then proceeded to produce new faces that combined those traits.

In particular, it is a reasonably common idea (in the last few years) to use a GA or other metaheuristic to traverse an embedding space. Here, that embedding space is the z layer of the GAN. Especially when "fitness" in the embedding space is purely subjective, it's natural to use an interactive GA.

However, I am over-stating it to say that the field is just interactive GA. It's that, intersected with face-GANs.

Where I'm at, the vast majority of employees working "grunt" positions in supermarkets are high schoolers along with some elderly and disabled folks. Given those demographics, I strongly suspect most of them are not working there to make a living.
As a designer, feedback from a good "goddamn copy writer" is invaluable. If they can't succinctly describe the thing I've designed to somebody who doesn't already know how to use it, or they can't fit what they need to say into the spaces I've left for them, it's often a sign that I haven't designed it very well.

Yeah, well stated.

The incentives are definitely misaligned. Viewers want and expect accuracy, but most of all what they want is to be entertained and most aren't going to look to hard to see how accurate a really entertaining doc is.

And as you said the incentive for filmmakers is to produce the most entertaining doc possible to get more butts in seats and more streams which means funding and continued work in the industry. Accuracy doesn't really play much into what gets produced and released.

>Cars have been pervasive for over a century and virtually none of the actual improvements in safety have come from "hoping humans do better".

Improvements to signage and traffic controls, cracking down on reckless and intoxicated driving and the massive campaign to get people to actually wear their seat-belts (listed in no particular order) seem to fall solidly in the "make humans do better" category.
My understanding was different. In the US, if you ask for a "pickle", what you'll get is about 3-4 inches long. If you ask for a gherkin, it's likely to be more like 1-1.5 inches long.

The "-kin" suffix is diminutive. Etymology isn't destiny, but I think most American speakers think of gherkins as smaller than pickles.

Wikipedia is a little confusing on the subject. It confirms that gherkins are small, but also "up to five inches". Which is indeed small for a cucumber, but cucumbers bigger than 5 inches are rarely pickled (they get mushy).

So the notion of gherkins as "small pickled cucumbers" seems vague, and I think people disagree, but I don't know the geography of that disagreement.
There are supermarkets here that have a special slow lane for those people. I use the self check one.

Not really. Your market is different. Instead of selling to business managers seeking to solve a problem, you're selling to developers. Developers tend to like solving problems themselves, and you're competing versus free.

An Application Programming Interface is ... an interface. As this very link points out, there are many programs that use coreutils via this interface.

Rust coreutils replacing GNU coreutils in these programs by implementing the same interface is the same issue.

Iran is under embargo by the US. Consequently, Apple doesn't do business in Iran. If someone buys an Apple product in Iran they're getting smuggled hardware that has likely been jailbroken. It won't be connected to anything Apple or iCloud unless they're going through some kind of VPN. Certainly nobody is getting developer certs there and they can't do any payment processing so most regular apps are gonna be out of the question.
You don't need to be a Swede to get bankid, but you do need a national registration number which you can apply for if you intend to live in Sweden for something like a year or more.

Yeah! I have a very soft voice. I’ve practiced to make it bigger, but even my loudest voice is not terribly loud. Ordering things behind the counter can be tough for me especially if there’s background noise of people chattering or machines whirring like in a coffee shop. Kind of an odd situation, and I’ve been able to get through life fine without self order kiosks, but I’m glad when they’re there because I just feel like I’m easier to deal with as a customer.
I admire your drive very much. I too started programming in my 30s, but have always struggled with it and now wish I had pursued something else.

I cannot imagine having the mental energy or the enthusiasm to spend most of my evenings doing side projects and reading CS books. I'm happy for you, but is that what it takes to do ok in this career? Hours and hours of unpaid work, even after you've got a job?

It just makes me wish I had focussed on being a product manager or something. I'm pretty sure most of them aren't spending all their evenings reading management books.
sounds the same for viruses and human kind.
This is a very literal understanding of my comment, it almost sound like a strawman. Of course I do not mean 'theft and rape'. I'm fully aware that the world changed since Indo-European barbarism. The thing is, culture evolved faster than nature. The underlying reasons for this 'manhood ritual' are probably not strictly economic.

Are you the type of person who can't understand why Jordan Peterson and all are so popular with young men, without wanting to deal the underlying tendencies which caused their popularity in the first place? What is your perspective on manhood in 2021? What should young men aspire to? How should we deal with our old symbols of virility, and how can we replace them to the benefits of all?
There are questionable things the government has done. My point was really about the criteria itself.

How would a criteria of "Is an external territory still under occupation?" do? Or perhaps "Is there freedom for women to get parental planning services?" Or "Are policies on immigration?"

These are just random questions, but I think the questions imply a certain definition of freedom which is where arbitrariness might creep in.

You should typically avoid using piecharts because humans are terrible at interpreting size/parts of a whole.

Every piechart can be turned into a barchart that communicates the findings in a much clearer way.
Calling it semantics glosses over some realities. Russia’s GDP is roughly 1/10th that of the United States - the size of the US economy and the dominance of the US dollar as a reserve currency have arguably been stronger levers of power. Russia, for all its nuclear and military ability, does not exert anything like the economic power the US does. There’s more to “power” than just guns, rockets and espionage.
I agree, especially about the mentality part. I'm 30 and I've already seen my expertise in two obscure stacks thrown away, the politics behind promotions, and more. I feel like why should I bust my ass learning a new stack if I'm just going to be thrown away and don't even make that much.

Of course that's also coupled with the family constraints you mention as well.

Why would you change the from address? The whole point here is to forward, not re-mail. Everything should be forwarded.

I kinda agree with what you said, but the point is that you shouldnt be mangling the from address when forwarding. That will definitely break DKIM, as its actually a required header fields in the sig - but theres NO reason to do that.
