It's important to understand what's troubling you the most. The money or the status/class?

If it's the money, 100 million is hard to make; you probably have to play with somebody else's money. But if it's the fact that he's a founder/employer/boss and doesn't have a job in the traditional sense, like you do, that's a difference easier to reduce.

You don't have to start a company, raise money, hire people just to become your own boss. Being a freelancer or contractor will change your relationship with the people who pay you. Your dependence on them will decrease and you will have to refer to them as your clients.

Even though your business will have different sizes, you and your friend will be both business owners. It's like if he would have a very expensive car and you would a cheap one(instead of taking the bus), you'd both probably complain about the traffic.

A bit of envy and competition is not bad, can be motivating. You just have to try to keep it reasonable, to not let it take over.
I was looking around but couldn't find the piece my prof sent me 5 years ago.

It was a piece from a mathematician's diary about walking and coming up with proofs. There is something about a changing enviroment and being on the move that's very fascinating to me.

I guess that one mathematician who likes to sit in libraries probably sits there just for sitting there ;)
There are benefits and risks to intermediaries.

A chief problem with technically-mediated intermediaries is that rather than buyers and sellers being directly connected, they are connected through yet another, larger-scale intermediary. Amazon, eBay, and Alibaba are three such instances, and each has its own motivations and opportunities to distort markets.

Regulations, preventing the same intermediary from playing both sides of the transaction (in a pass-through mode, apparently, in the flipping case), fiduciary obligations, and of course, reporting, enforcement, penalties, and decertification for violations, are all highly useful steps.
Jacques Ellul wrote about all this since 1954, and his 'Le système technicien' book covers all the Unabomber's material (and more) quite clearly, and even more objectively.

TDD slide has an error it seems.

In slide 18 Fucci2016 is referred for a replication study with 39 professionals. That study only uses students. That slide quotes Fucci2016, but I do not see that quote in the paper. He talks about TDD and hatemail and is not careful about references? Perhaps this was just a small error - the reference is incorrect. I am not sure.

It seems believable that Test-first vs Test-last might have similar impacts. I just checked one thing in this talk and it turned out to problematic. Has anyone else done fact-checking on his stories?
Analogy: the prospect of “vaccine passports” for jurisdictional movement and access is getting serious consideration at all levels of U.S. governance. Not long ago, anything so resembling “papiere, bitte” commonly inspired a sense of violent resistance against totalitarianism. Just takes one engaging “but this is different” to reframe the worst of humanity to popular compulsion.

These skills are not unique to programming. It’s true that building sophisticated applications requires skills that need to be developed over time. But there are many many useful programs short of that that can be written with a beginner’s limited knowledge. We see already with python widespread use by non computer scientists in certain fields. I think going forward this will become more and more common across more fields and beyond academia.

I don’t know if this is connected, but the company I work for we provide marketing services. One service we provide is marketing videos on Facebook on behalf of our clients. We would post the videos on their pages and promote them. We could then publicly see the amount of views they would get.

Well in the last month Facebook has changed how that works. We now have to add them to their ads manager and promote them through there and they will now not automatically get added to the clients page to be seen publicly.

That’s fine we can do that. The kicker here is that Facebook removed 2 years of videos from all of our clients. We have hundreds of clients and thousands of videos.

I wonder now if this is an attempt to stop people from researching this data since they have been removed.

I just have no other explanation for removing 2 years of videos. Note that these videos are not political in any way they are general 15-20 second animated ads. All unique and custom written a produced for each client.
They are in public office now. So why should their actions not be scrutinized and their motives not be questioned?
I'd say Elm is a decent example. Released 2012. Historically, the ML family has been fairly unpopular, with a little bit of ocaml in the wild and not much else. Elm is certainly also niche, but I think it meets some definition of "working".
Yes it makes sense for the poor friend to try to get some money.

The difference in wealth is so large that the poor friend's life can be easily changed.

It would be smart for the rich guy to change his friends' lives without being asked, if they were friends and still close enough.

It's also true that people will also overestimate their friendship with the rich guy because now the king can easily change your life.

There is no way someone who suddenly becomes very rich will keep most of the past relationships.

From close friendships to the bulies from highschool, almost everyone will try to reach out and try to get some of that cash.
The initial thesis was that governments get nothing in return from their investment in education and research. This is patently false. Companies pay taxes, and the higher income they make, the more taxes they pay.

You may argue that over 20% in income tax is not enough, but in the case of BioNTech and Pfizer, you're arguing between two scenarios: seeing the states get about 20% from the profit extracted from billions in revenue, or getting zero due to the absence of any investment in education and basic research and supporting research projects.

Getting paid a 20% chunk of a multi-billion euro revenue is not small change, and this also ignores the fact that this prior investment in education and research shared with startups, which mind you supported the bulk of the development cost of these vaccines and thus enabled humanity to have vaccines with such a low turn-around time, was what ultimately allowed the world to start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. How valuable is that?

Not to mention the externalities in fostering the creation of industries and high-value tech jobs.

Technology certainly scaling and improving but it's being concentrated in fewer and fewer hands. In the past I could compete with most sophisticated companies, it wasn't unattainable.

Why would users be aware what happened? Did you tell them?

This is a very reliable and easy for the user and other developers to understand.

try
{
image = LoadImage(path);
}
catch(OutOfMemoryException e)
{
Msgbox("Cannot load image it is too large for available memory");
}

That is way more friendly than a program crash and allow the user to try again perhaps with a smaller version of the image because they accidentally picked the high res version or something.

Either way you may get 100% CPU as the program crashes and memory gets reclaimed, or the program continues to run and the garbage collector reclaims.
Recognise the fact that he was in the right place at the right time. If a few things outside his control were slightly different, he would have come away with little to show for his effort. He is the outlier, not you.

Hard work leads to a comfortable life (if you don't start with a disadvantage). Hard work and luck leads to a windfall. No luck means no windfall.

I've learned this through observation, as I was in a team of about 12 who developed and demonstrated the first OFDM WiFi system. After the initial project ended, we went different ways and there was a huge spread in payout (2000x) over subsequent years. It's proof to me that you can't define "wasted time" in terms of subsequent windfall. Despite the differing rewards, we all did the same work. had an equal part in the experience and get to say "I did that".

Other examples show that some of the most valuable work doesn't result in windfalls. How many of the scientists who developed vaccines, which have saved millions of lives, have several hundred million dollars to their name? I'd guess approximately zero.

It's great to hear about your experiences with CBT and hear from someone in the ~50% for whom CBT works. We certainly wouldn't bill it as a panacea for all conditions, as we've discussed in the comments section here, and it's wrong to see it as such, but for those who it works for it's an excellent tool. Also great to hear that so-called bibliotherapy has been of assistance to you.

As you allude to, while there are many academic papers showing the efficacy of CBT, DBT and ACT, in various forms of trial, some other forms of talk therapy are not backed by such a robust evidence base.
Honestly, I genuinely regret having anything to do with that platform. It’s such a pain; we’ve integrated OAuth into a client’s platform at her request and every two months we get threatened to either provide them with stuff or just misc. BS. That we have to reply to or they threaten to shut us out. This last week we got an email saying our integration doesn’t work and we need to fix it or be shut down. Ironic, as it works with no issues… About two months ago we had to provide then with an account to our platform. That involved creating a fake Facebook and handing the credentials over to their dev team (something that I believe is against their ToS, but whatever). We only grab the bare minimum of information on registration and only use them to log in. I can’t imagine anyone having to rely on them for anything more serious.

We’re planning on transitioning our users out of using their Facebook accounts to log in.

The problem is there's no reason Apple couldn't do anything. All the ML face data gathered on device would be way more valuable than these hash vouchers.

Subset of dog coat patterns predates the emergence of modern wolves
I think this is the wrong way to look at it.

You're looking at it from an individual/market economy point of view as a transaction (tax for services).

But that's not how the people setting the tax are looking at it. They're thinking about how can we make this country survive, how do we make it prosper, how much money do we need to make that happen, and how do we get that money from the population.

So you should expect to pay for things which are:

* Larger than individual or company scale

* Longer than individual or company lifespan

* Less probable than individuals or companies will consider

* Strategic in some other way that the market economy isn't able to handle

And yeah, a lot of those aren't going to benefit you personally. It's still a good idea for someone to be paying.

The above is an idealisation, and of course there is also waste and corruption to add to the picture, which is probably what you really object to I imagine.
Although you've encoded the whole problem right there: do you even have enough memory to setup a MsgBox widget or whatever that is?

I’m mildly colourblind: I find it difficult to distinguish red/green, but can still do it under the right conditions. On the whole, I agree that colourblindness doesn’t really affect my life, in that for the most part it doesn’t cause me any significant difficulties. But I have a feeling that this is only because I’ve gotten used to it, and that it does affect me — just in ways that I don’t notice. Most relevantly for this discussion, I recall seeing a 3D chart which I was having trouble reading, until I noticed a link to a colourblind version replacing red/green with red/blue (or something like that), at which point it became almost trivial to understand. I had gotten so used to seeing non-colourblind-adapted charts I didn’t even realise they were impeding my comprehension.

(The other major time I recall it affecting me was in first-year geology class — the instructor would say things like ‘this rock has huge red garnets which are easy to see’, and indeed everyone could see them except for me. Thankfully, colour mostly plays a very minor role in mineral identification.)
Also, when your country's population is such that the entire IPv4 address space could only allow three addresses per resident, with that ignoring all reserved / multicast restrictions...

> With this kind of visas I've always been curious: Unless you're US or Eritrea citizen, does this mean you don't have to pay any income tax at all, given you loose your home country's tax residentship in 183 days after leaving?

If you really become fiscal resident of a country with 0% income tax and the country you left is fine with that then, yes, you pay 0% income tax. I've got a friend who really went to live with his family in Monaco (he was a native french speaker, but not from France, which helps): he's there since five years now I'd say and, indeed, he pays 0% income tax.

> Ditto for pictures of Winnie the Pooh.

References to Winnie the Pooh in these discussions are about China, where images of Winnie are deemed to be coded political messages and are censored.

The concern is that Apple are building a system that is ostensibly about CSAM, and that some countries such as China will then leverage their power to force Apple to include whatever political imagery in the database as well. Giving the government there the ability to home in on who is passing around those kinds of images in quantity.

If that seems a long way indeed from CSAM, consider something more likely to fit under that heading by local government standards. There's a country today, you may have heard of, one the USA is busy evacuating its personnel from to leave the population to an awful fate, where "female teenagers in a secret school not wearing a burqa" may be deemed by the new authorities to be sexually titillating, inappropriate and illegal, and if they find out who is sharing those images, punishments are much worse than mere prison. Sadly there are a plethora of countries that are very controlling of females of all ages.

I guess it depends on where you are and how wide the outage is. Most of our power outages are extremely local (we're in the middle of the jungle and trees come down during heavy rain), and usually resolved within a couple of hours. So far our internet has been consistently up, as long as we've been able to keep power on at the network cabinet and router.

There's also good LTE (as a fallback) in many villages that cater to tourists, but coverage is spotty as you get more remote.
