You don’t have to control a company personally, you can also rely on other shareholders to do that. You just have to know, somebody is voting in your interests, since you probably won’t do it (but again: you could).

I don’t know whether your statement about the price difference is true and if so, I don’t know why. Maybe different free float? My statement was about inherent value not short term price negotiations via stock exchange.

I thought about an actual attack against my argument: Stocks are just shares of companies, which sell stuff that is valuable because other people think so. Some stuff might have inherent value (because it can generate money), but in the end it still comes down to people deciding something has value. Turtles all the way down.
That would result in the filing of a Suspicious Activity Report because the breakdown looks like it was done precisely to avoid the reporting threshold.
The main appeal of containerisation is not security, the main appeal is having a deployment process that's consistent across the entire team/org/company.

Sure, if all you have are Go binaries, you can just run those directly, but if you have some Go binaries and also some Python applications and also some Java beans, you stuff them all into containers and then they can be deployed with the same tooling.

Wonder if the big plane MFGs will be interested in buying them out or believe they have the talent to bring to market if the market proves large enough.
Sure - this is a great way to think about calculus intuitively, but imprecisely; rigorous, mathematical proofs based on the hyperreals, on the other hand, may become unwieldy, and, as you rightly noted, they do not extend to the modern treatments of, say, differential geometry which, too, plays a huge role, as a framework, in the modern theoretical physics.

That's what I'd assumed when I started skimming the spec, but the section I referenced seems to indicate a max of four regardless. I've never heard of a JPEG that's not RGB(A) or CMYK.

Counterpoint: fast, accessible in flight Wifi is a reality now. It means that flights aren’t anywhere near the kind of “dead” time they used to be.

I’m sure some CEOs will pay whatever it costs to boost their own egos but IMO that would push them towards private jets, not a supersonic flight with United. I find the actual arguments for faster flights less persuasive than they were in the 70s.
> Also I think it's pretty disingenuous to assume that MS wants to see computer courses taught in school to drive down the cost of labor.

SWEs are some of the largest cost for any tech company, why do you feel it is disingenuous? It's a company, makes profits, if they drive down labour costs their profits increase, as any company naturally will tend to (even more larger public ones). Driving down cost of labour is basically all the motivation towards automation since time immemorial, SWEs can't be automated yet, the best course of action is to pump more SWEs to drive the labour cost down.

I do think that there's some merit in sticking with probability on discrete spaces for a while. Once you start dealing with continuous spaces, soon you're talking measure theory and you can wade deep into the technical details and miss some understanding of what's going on. I go back and forth on this as I think it's largely down to the reader to figure out what works for them, but I think probability is one of those fields where developing intuition early on is a must if you want to go further.

You’re comparing apples to oranges. There’s a big difference between wanting to learn and having to learn.

Someone wants to be a doctor? Great, soon they’ll realise that they need to learn anatomy, and they’ll do that if they’re sufficiently motivated! But most of school was, you have to learn something because an adult (and not very smart adult either ... most teachers aren’t experts, they just seem like that, to kids) said so.

I don’t care why Hamlet said something, I never did, I never will, I never needed that knowledge and never will, and to the extent that you can maybe learn some general life principles from such books, there are many other, better ways of learning that, including many better and more interesting books.

Even the employment course you’re taking, you want to take - you’re getting something out of it (a promotion, hopefully) - even though even in your reply there’s some amount of bitterness about having to learn it (“memorizing stupid powerpoints about stuff I will probably never use”) - now imagine being a child with much less independence and agency and multiply that feeling of dread by 1000x...

You say "for the greater good" when really you want for YOUR greater good. The people who designed Python made decisions that they thought was best for everyone.
> That is pretty much how it works in Blender. All the buttons and properties in the UI are accessible through the Python API.

Yes, it seems that way, and I was hopeful at first. But then I tried to use it.

In Maya, you can just copy paste a command from the command window, and it will work.

When you do that in Blender, it will probably give you an unspecific error message like "not possible in the current context". Because you need to manually switch Blender e. g. from Object mode to Edit mode (Faces), and your command only works in that context. So you develop a script that works initially, but later you find that it only works if Blender is in a certain state. That state is nowhere documented, you have to guess what it wants.

While Maya uses arguments to commands, Blender uses the equivalent of global variables.
I've not seen any on our platform, yet. Winners have been big, well known collectors.

At Origin Protocol, we are currently doing white-glove auctions for celebrities and top-tier NFTs. The Charlie Bit Me video is a perfect example. This means that the pool of bidders that can pay the prices that these go for is fairly small. I would think that the problems you mention would be much more prevalent among NFT artists who are looking to make a career out of this.
>Is the cooked-for-you food free?
It's broadly true in the US as far as I know for on-campus university housing. (Off-campus housing and fraternities/sororities are often different.)

Anything but free. Meal plan requirements vary.

Where I lived undergrad, we had a kitchen for a suite of rooms although I ate out a fair bit. (Many dorms did not have cooking facilities though.) Both places I went for grad school (which were actually both Ivy League) had no cooking facilities of any type.
this isn't really true. the difference in funding from property tax is smoothed out (or more!) at the state level in most US states. some of the poorest school districts (eg, baltimore) have the highest funding per student. they still produce abysmal outcomes.
Python 4.0 won't exist. The Python crew will just ape GNOME and jump to Python 40 after we get Python 3.9.39.

Then HN will watch again when Python 41 comes out 12 months later via a new modern release cadence and we get a 2 to 3 breakage that sends Data Scientists and others around the world into righteous indignations and they blog about it.

First off, because of Bloom's two sigma effect [0], public schools will never be able to match the experience of a good homeschool. Unless you're talking about class sizes of four, each headed by someone who has mastered the material, the level of achievement possible under homeschooling will, in general, vastly outstrip what a public school offers.

Second, you can't talk about school funding unless you talk about both administrative bloat and teacher's unions. As long as teachers can keep voting themselves raises and escaping even the most basic levels of accountability for their results, money will not solve the public school crises. And administrative employment has grown by 75% over less than a decade -- 10x the growth in teacher employment during the same time. [1]

So sure, you solve the bloat and local control issues, there's plenty of money for instruction and classroom resources.

Depends on whether you subscribe to the "death of the author" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGn9x4-Y_7A) or not. Does the author's intent in writing something trump everyone else's interpretation? What if we don't have the original author around to ask? A good example of this is all the interpretations of various passages in the Bible different groups have had throughout history.

Instead of privileging the author's intent, one can treat literature, or even religious text as akin to art. The reader participates in the meaning of the piece. Or you can think about how people argue over and critique movies and television shows.
Likely, it’s money at the parental level that is what is lacking most now, and the body of supporting research has become deafening. From benefits cliffs, to the broken poverty measure, to ballooning costs of housing, healthcare and college, to stagnant wages it’s getting harder and harder for a hard working family to maintain an existence above that of outright poverty.

>When critics insist that American teachers need to be held accountable for the poor performance of American school children, the teachers shoot back that they are being held accountable for the failure of American parents and taxpayers to take care of their children.

>When some of us point out that there has been no improvement in the performance of all high school students or of protected subgroups of students in the United States on NAEP measures of reading and mathematics in 30 years, they tell us we should consider ourselves lucky that we have teachers who have been able to hold student performance steady while the American people have been sending them students who get poorer and more isolated every year.

>…the U.S. spends much more per student on our schools than the countries with the best education performance. But it is also the case that other countries, with higher student performance and lower school spending per student, have smaller disparities in income between their wealthiest families and their poorest ones, and despite that, spend much more than we do on the support of families with young children on everything from child allowances to child care and early childhood education. From my vantage point, our budgets for children, families and schools, if you take everything into account, do very little about the enormous problems caused by concentrated poverty and racial segregation and then load all the problems that causes onto the schools.

>…It is a whole lot cheaper to do right by our children starting when mom is pregnant than it is to wait six years, when it is a whole lot harder to do what must be done to give these kids a chance in a world in which the skill threshold for earning a decent living is getting higher and higher.

I certainly hope so. If we had to reinvent the education system today it would look nothing like the legacy system, which was constrained by having to co-locate information sources, instructors, and students. A big danger I see is that the legacy system so damages the reputation of education that there may not be enough demand for a better version.

The Concorde basically used afterburners. It used fuel at incredible rates. Boom is using more modern engine technology that can achieve the high cruise speeds using less fuel. This also increases effective range.

The Computer Science college at Oregon State University offered both CS and Software Engineer degrees. The CS degree focused more on theory and technology, SWE more on management strategies (Agile, etc) and project architecture. I was really frustrated hitting the workforce and not knowing much about the "flow" of large team software projects.

It was interesting seeing what the EE's and ME's were learning about, standardized practices, vs what CS was taught, the "figure out a system" method.
> But full of features that let unskilled users do risky things that will quickly become business critical.

Isn't the answer the same as it has always been? That is, maintain a relationship with the business where you are trusted.

When IT and the business units trust each other (to some extent) then you see better feedback cycles. This is an infrequent occurrence because of the attitudes of IT. When trust exists, the business areas will share information on their apps and partake in exercises to properly productionize apps.

IT break trust in multiple ways often simultaneously. They try to stamp out apps without giving the business an interim solution, fail to communicate well, implement security policies which aren't grounded in good practice, etc. These are just a litany of missteps that you have to unravel when you are asked to recover situations like these.
https://linear.app actually looks pretty cool. Real-time sync, keyboard shortcuts, clean UI, dark mode and a quick action CLI thing.

Author here. I've been working on this post for about a week now, excited to share it with HN. Let me know your thoughts.
Historically individual taxes were annual while some business taxes were quarterly. In Canada, corporate income tax is annual but sales tax remittances are quarterly. The interest is favourable to government since it reduces the amount of debt it needs to carry for a time. Admittedly it’s small now but in the 80’s it was a very big deal. I admittedly have never ran payroll taxes for a business in the US so I don’t know how that in particular works. I do however know Milton Friedman came up with the idea of withholding while working for the government early in his career and he always claimed that it was motivated by interest.

I agree. As for most things, the internet narrative exaggerates reality. New York is already quickly coming back to normal -- certainly slower than before, but offices aren't open yet. Once they open, the intangible benefits of being in the office will re-appear, and result in the same cultural forces that have led to cities for ~all of human civilization.

People who are betting against urban life are basically making a bet against human nature based on short-term trends.
