I think you'll find that view in any smoothly-running business with an eye on the future - not just large corporations. Unless the management are the devs.

We have to specialise at some point - not everybody that gets hired is going to be an ace industrial strategist. Few devs know how to qualify a sales prospect. If you have such people in management, then as a dev I don't want to do their job for them; they should set strategy and find good customers.

I guess we all have differing perspectives on this kind of thing; one's perspective is partly formed by one's experiences.

I'm not talking about startups - I never worked in one. But I've worked for quite a few companies with < 20 staff.
Global warming wise, should society really be focusing on using paper straws or should Facebook aim to make their server code 10% more efficient?
> Sure, most people are comfortable spending plenty of time chatting with one person or a small group of trusted people, but far fewer people are comfortable talking in a large group of strangers.

This is exacerbated by the real name policy clubhouse has. Maybe there's room for an anonymous voice chat app?
As far as I can see, Finland has some of the lowest drug abuse in the world, so it stands to reason that providing homes is more affordable for them. As far as I remember, they used to have a bigger problem with alcohol than their Nordic neighbours, but I'm unsure if this is still the case.
And you think this won't be an issue on the national level?

If it's truly universal, then I would expect substantial illegal immigration to occur. Seems like a valid/realistic experiment in that case.
Parent comment was down voted but AFAIK it's correct, many homeless people avoid shelters because they consider them unsafe due to other homeless people, some of which are dangerous to others.
Something is seriously wrong if it costs $150k per year to be homeless in SF.

6 years ago, I lived there quite comfortably making only $70k BEFORE taxes, and was able to save a decent bit per year on top of that.

Even now, I /only/ spend $90k per year - and my lifestyle is quite extravagant.

It's just out of control if it costs almost twice as much money to have almost nothing.
You can, at least for some drugs: in many places, possession of drugs is a criminal offense, carrying jail term. However, it is commonly understood today that jailing addicts so that they can recover in controlled setting is inhumane, as opposed to letting them overdose under the bridge.

Covid: Is UK now a breeding ground for new variants?
Horns are already a button in some cars, presumably to make way for an airbag. You don't want your palm on the center of the wheel when that airbag goes off.
In the UK there are 2 ways to get access to long-term spectrum. It's also usable from a bands and handets perspective!

1. Shared access licence. There's 3.3 MHz (duplex paired) of former DECT guardband available for local use at the top of the 1800 MHz band. This should work fine to run 2G or 4G. There's 10 MHz of TDD at 2390 to 2400 MHz, indoor use only I believe, and most useful for 4G. There's also 3.8 to 4.2 GHz which allows outdoor use, and is dedicated shared spectrum for 5G. Transmit power limited aren't enough to run a big commercial network, but are enough to deploy a private network on a campus or private site.

The former two should be widely supported on handsets. The latter (5G option) is aligned with band N77.

2. If you're in a rural area, get a local access licence to "take" existing operator spectrum and use it legally, with 3 years max tenure. It can be renewed if the operator has no intention to use it. Operators don't like this, as they see spectrum as their owned property, but this isn't the case, and they only have a right to use it...

The process of getting a local access licence is deliberately complicated by operators as they don't want you doing it, but it can be done. You need to understand the technology and commercials of the industry though to realistically be successful. Some operators want you to talk to them first, others want you to talk to Ofcom first. If you know what you're doing, and make a strategically selected request for spectrum, it can be done. You can operate a commercial service in this spectrum, but you have to be clear to users the time-limited nature of spectrum access.

Going forward though, it's clear from Ofcom's own priorities that a more dynamic nature of spectrum allocation and utilisation authorisation is a priority and likely to be coming down the line - it's been a work item the last couple of years. Once that comes, we could see easier ways to access spectrum. Realistically though, operators will do what they can to make spectrum access complex, to preserve a final moat in a market of 10+ years of continued reduction in average revenue per user.
Then quit, don’t get another job, and stop complaining about it. But most people can’t, because they aren’t just blindly exploited, they’re compensated for their work and that gives them more freedom and future options. If you want to say they’re not fairly compensated, go work to get a bill passed. Or run for office. Or make your own company. Just do SOMETHING, making flippant remarks online and whining isn’t productive and doesn’t help anyone.
It would be nice to believe, but when second place celebrates like she won says she wasn't aware of a rider up the road, it's not just not the story today. Perhaps if they had known and chased, Kiesenhofer still would have been able to hold them off, but we'll never know.

I also wouldn't call the rest of the peloton "unfortunate." They knew keeping track of the breakaway would be especially important given the lack of radio communication with a director in a team car, and they still didn't. I think Kiesenhofer deserves a ton of credit for this win; she was in the break from the very start of the race, and she was solo for over an hour, I believe. You can't do that without a lot of dedicated training and preparation. If anything, I think this is an example of "shoot your shot." You never know when things will break your way!

Part of the reason I love cycling races is that it's a combination of athletic ability and strategic thinking that you don't see in most other sports. The physics of drafting mean that a well coordinated group almost always has the speed advantage over a lone rider, but lone riders often win races because they don't have to deal with the coordination problems of a group. After 4+ hours of racing, people are trying to calculate optimal game theory decisions while at their max heart rate. It can be bonkers to watch!
I assume it's because there's nothing reaching the strata of VCs that tells them that Mill Computing's thesis is a slam dunk for a VC thesis. VCs invest mostly as a herd, not as pioneering eccentric outliers. Unless a company is doing a thing that is already inbounds of where the herd is at or where its vanguard is headed, then those companies will have a comparatively very hard time raising VC money.

It might look to you like VCs are just throwing gobs of money around at anything with a pulse, but they're not. They're not throwing money at 100,000 distinctly unique kinds of market making or new category creating ventures. They're throwing lots of money at slightly different flavors of parallel attempts at iterative improvements in mostly established markets.

For what Mill Computing is portending to do, I'd expect government grants and maybe strategic investment from industry CVCs to be their only real viable bet. That or finding extremely "smart" or extremely "dumb" money in the VC marketplace, because I'd be very surprised if anybody in between is going to be looking for a Mill Computing to fill out their portfolio. It's way too esoteric. That's not an indictment of Mill Computing of VCs. Neither of them seems like they're in the right place for the other.
"Double the amount of serious injuries" - using a metric based on whether you got time off or a change in duties. So if your company is better about making you see a doctor when you get an injury, and better about honoring the doctor's recommendation regarding light duty or time off, your company's number on this metric would get worse.

I see a lot of illegal workers in the ER who get injured at work but refuse to fill out the workman's comp forms - you can guarantee that their employers have a zero rate for serious injuries using that metric

[Edit -
If you're looking to really improve conditions, maybe focus on the workers who don't show up in the official numbers? Reminds me of the old story about the drunk guy looking for his lost keys by the lamppost, not where he dropped them "because the light is better here"]
is the port used to connect the expansion card proprietary or does it use USB-C?
I don't think this has aged well.

Theoretically it was an interesting idea but now we see that even in Israel where a big proportion of young people are now vaccinated, there still can be a great number of new covid cases. Fortunately hospitalizations and deaths are relatively very few but that's because the elderly have been almost 100% vaccinated.

The main issue is that transmission still happens with the vaccine which means that superspreading events will be less active but will still happen. If elderly were not vaccinated they would succumb to illness and death.

Maybe by QALY it would be net positive but I doubt even that.
Are you saying talking about the social safety net in Finland or the US? I don't understand the argument you're making, if anything the weakness of the social safety net in the US bolsters my argument that a larger fraction of homeless people in the US are just down on their luck relative to the fraction of homeless people in Finland.

EDIT: In order to avoid deepening the thread, may you restate your point so that I can understand what you mean?
that's heedlessly (and appallingly) justifying runaway inflation. the end state of that game is that ubi would become our only income, which would sap all economic incentive away from any creative endeavor, as we all become serfs to a governing elite (who'd of course pay themselves way more because they deserve it for doing all the hard work).
In which countries? I was trying to find stats on that.
> Some of the names are completely uninformative though -- cognito for example doesn't convey anything about oauth.

That's kind of the point, though. A "brandable" name is something that generally evokes what the service does, but is not so limited that it only specifies the exact features at the time of initial release.

I mean, by the author's logic, Amazon itself should have been called Internet Book Store. Which name do you think would have been more successful?
The iPhone took a fairly straightforward approach, which was that to have a working touchscreen interface you need to maximize screen real estate on a phone. Once you make that decision and price the components, everything else about the design falls out: the only “design” questions are about the casing material and whether the corners should be rounded. The iPhone didn’t succeed because people thought the fashion decisions were brilliant: it succeeded because people wanted a working touch-screen phone (because even before the iPhone we all recognized that previous phones sucked for browsing the Internet.)

I can’t figure out how the Cybertruck analogizes to this. Do people need a cab that can stop small-caliber bullets? It would seem that this is not what most people are excited about. But I am sometimes wrong.
Black Swan Ideas
I stayed there for a weekend about four years ago and thought it was a decent place.

The only negative thing that stuck out to me was that the shop density was too low as they were all intentionally spaced apart (more than shops in communities that have grown up organically over time) and this meant that they didn't get enough places in close together to be convenient for a shopper to visit in quick succession, you ended up traipsing much further than normal and this had a knock on effect on the buzz (or lack thereof) around the shopping area.

But other than that it was charming: things worked, the people were nice, the places were well built.
Not the OP, but in general when there is high socioeconomic mobility in society, high taxes disproportionately impact high earners who are not yet wealthy. If you're already wealthy you can draw a subsistence income from investments and be taxed at a low rate, while paying 0 rent since you own property. If you're not wealthy, you need to make enough to pay (high) rents and also build up your wealth, which means you get doubly screwed by high tax rates.

Presumably UBI would be funded by increases in taxes, so this logic would apply.

We can argue about whether the US has high socioeconomic mobility but the majority of millionaires in the US are self-made [1]. It is perhaps questionable whether 20th wealth percentile poor can make it to the 99th percentile, but I think it's much easier for a 60th percentile person in the US to make it to the 99th percentile compared to Europe.

If I notice the door is unlocked before bed I’ll lock it, but my neighborhood is very safe and I’m sure the locks often go unlocked before we go to sleep.

Before we moved here after our daughter was born, we lived in a rougher part of town and would instinctively lock the doors any time we went in our out. Our neighbor got robbed while she was at work, and my wife was at home when it happened, so we were very cautious. As a last resort we had a gun, which luckily we never had occasion to use.

It’s amazing how moving 10 miles away was such a huge stress reducer for me and my family.
> Wow, I’m not even gonna comment on this first paragraph. I only have one question: do you live in the US?

You neither proved your point nor disproved their point.
Such high values found on TVs are typically a product of motion interpolation and backlight strobing. They may not be considered "true" refresh rates and be just taken at face value.
refer to @cge comment below, looks like the company is pushing for an open market for the expansion cards.
I don’t want to speak for the author, but I think the point they were trying to make can be clarified using the difference in marketing between Redis (from redis.io) and Redis Enterprise (from redislabs.com). The former includes a description of the problems that the software solves. The latter includes a “Solutions” tab that tells CXOs how to use it in a way that makes money.
I don't read it much either, but I do see headlines from it and those, to me, do look like they're sounding closer to the chorus being sung by the big left media.

On the other hand, it also seems Greenwald has moved towards the right. Kind weird seeing him on FOX News. Same with Tulsi Gabbard.

Personally, I'd never want to be anywhere near close enough for someone to get even a photo of me and Tucker Carlson together and joining him on his "Show" is pretty much a surefire way for me to lose respect for anyone. Rutger Bregman was a rare exception:

> When Amazon is the only viable place of employment in your town, yes.

>Rural America is a sea of "Walmart towns", where the best employment is the only employment.

Are you being hyperbolic by saying that amazon/walmart is the "only" or "only viable" place of employment? Are there literally no other places to work? If you're being hyperbolic, at what point does it count as "medieval style feudalism"? I searched around on wikipedia for what "feudalism" is, and despite my best efforts I can't pin down on a good definition. However, it definitely doesn't seem to be "one entity provides most of the employment in an area".
While I'm not a proponent of UBI I'm not sure it's a trick. It's coming from a lot of different people and places. I think it's an idea that people want to try and think it might work. Personally, I think it's an idea that will ultimately be abused by corporations and the government.
The description makes it look like it's a way of presenting Linux configs as something resembling Windows registry :).

Why is that a bad thing? People are smart. They’ll figure something out just like humans have done for centuries.
A very good point.

Also, as Tesla says:

"Autopilot and Full Self-Driving Capability are intended for use with a fully attentive driver, who has their hands on the wheel and is prepared to take over at any moment. While these features are designed to become more capable over time, the currently enabled features do not make the vehicle autonomous." [1]

How do they suppose that is going to work now that you cannot let the wheel slip through your fingers? Occasions when the vehicle is making a tight turn seem to be among those events when intervention may be needed.

- Unless, of course, they don't actually expect anyone to do what they insist is necessary for safety, and this is just cynical CYA nonsense.

Given that Benford's law tends to apply when the numbers span many orders of magnitudes, I would have expected more emphasis on that. Berkshire Hathaway (low 200, high 450,000) covers about 3.4 orders of magnitude (and much more time, ie opportunities to wander up and down), BTC (low 200, high 60,000) covers about about 2.5 orders of magnitude.

So, we should expect BTC to have a worse fit than Berkshire. How much worse would require some more sophisticated analysis than looking at the graphs, it seems.
People talk about Apple’s marketing teams from time to time but I feel like Apple is large enough they effectively don’t need one.
Hey guys, love your idea. Just a question about the keyboard. Any particular reason why the keys |\ are making the Enter key smaller and not the left Shift? Personally prefer a big enter than a big shift. I don't have issues finding the small shift, but I do have trouble finding the small Enter without looking at the keys.
Sorry, I was speaking specifically with regards to San Francisco w/the parent. And yes, I believe there is some Sec 8 in SF, but not exactly the point of the current issue.
Very cool application of the "Principle of charity".
> One magazine put a professional racing driver and car reviewer in a Tesla with a yoke steering wheel Tesla. Even on the race track, he hated it and wanted a standard steering wheel back in.

That makes sense. Steering technique is taken seriously as a safety practice in racing. Honestly, steering technique should be taken more seriously in normal driving; for example the person in the lead photo in this article would be in a world of hurt if the airbag deployed with their arms crossed up like that.

Gimmicky yoke wheels have repeatedly failed to catch on for most of a century, outside of goofy kit cars, dead end concepts, and a handful of out-there exotics. Even Saab gave up on trying to come up with a not-a-round-wheel steering gimmick that wasn't awful, after decades of trying.
Use it as my goto choice for containers and have never had an issue. Tiny footprint and minimal OS means I can minimise attack surface and package update frequency to boot. Really nice versatile distro.
If you agree homelessness is an issue than the right attitude to have is to reduce it no? The Finland solution actually works, so do it regardless of how you feel about it? Anything short of that means you actually don't want it to get better.
Yes this was my question… The FCC is pretty aggressive about keeping people off frequencies they don’t have a license for, how does that work in these types of environments? Especially something like a college campus, where you have 10,000+ students who would all need their phones to be reprovisioned… not to mention how would it work if you walk off campus? LTE/5G isn’t really great at working with multiple networks… it just wasn’t set up that way…
Finland.

Also I’m not sure how to evaluate “a large fraction of the homeless are just down in their luck.” Those are the easy cases that are more likely to get effective help already, even in more dysfunctional American cities. And if they aren’t, we have a much better chance of doing a better job there, since their problems are much easier to solve than those of the more chronic homeless.

In fact, our first priority should be to prevent “down in their luck” homeless cases from becoming chronic “substance abuse/mental illness” homeless cases.
If you assume the human-centric definition of the word "pain", perhaps. But I don't think that paints a complete picture - organisms experience and react to negative stimuli in so many different ways.

IMO, what we're seeing here could absolutely be considered "pain" in the plant kingdom, without altering or stretching the definition of the word even in the slightest.
There's always someone who can beat you. It doesn't matter - they didn't. What matters is that she chose and executed her best-chance prep and race day strategies wisely and bravely. It takes away nothing from her achievement that she also happened to hit the one outer she needed on the river
a lot more alpha and arbitrage opportunities in crypto though.
I used to be one of those homeless people that officially don't exist about a decade ago, we didn't exist then and I'm sure they didn't exist now either.

I am not sure I get your point. One can have a range of opinions about religions, but I think it’s clear most of them provide some strong guidance about what’s good and what’s bed. I mean, some of them literally contains lists of what’s good and what’s bad.

On the other hand, the problem of what’s good and what’s bad is of course far from being settled, at least looking at the diversity of opinions people have about the matter.
That helps, as does triple buffering at very high framerates, and various techniques to try to align rendering exactly with when a frame is needed.

But it's still significantly better if you put that 120+Hz output onto a 120+Hz screen, and it's not super hard to make them.
If your possessions fit in a locker. But I think security here is to prevent or react to violence, not necessarily theft. I’ve heard stories of homeless people avoiding shelters because you can get raped, for example.
