Meh, no link to working code.
You can't just assume that the background is "ID works like it does in India", because it doesn't. (E.g. from my understanding, India has a free central ID system for all citizens, in the US that is something many people fundamentally oppose ever existing. And in reverse, people push for requirements on voter ID on top of just "an ID", which again excludes people and causes opposition to voter ID laws)
> who cares about interest rates? People invest in stocks

The return on equities is coupled to rates. When rates are low, ceteris paribus, the earnings yield on stocks will be low. Put another way, lower rates drive higher P/E ratios; higher P/E ratios, ceteris paribus, tend to predict lower future returns.
While I use SBCL, CCL, and CLisp for free I also paid for the $3100 professional LispWork license and pay the yearly maintenance fee.

Recently, LispWorks stopped running when I updated my M1 MacBook so I had to just use other implementations for a short while until LispWorks gave me a custom built beta. They really do provide good service.

If this seems expensive, in 1982 I got a Xerox 1108 Lisp Machine that cost $25K, which is about $72K in 2021 dollars. Sometimes good tools cost money.
In theory it's 15W and 15W, but both chips can use more than that amount under certain circumstances and the AMD chip can even be configured by OEMs with different TDPs. Plus they heat up differently under the same workloads due to different chip features and optimizations (as the sibling comment mentioned).
Despite the constant of pessimism about tech. I think most folks glib claims of "yet" don't happen.

And I kinda wonder what use all that pessimism is in the face a protection that we would seem to want ... we like that it doesn't inform the state when the ID is presented right? No?

How do they save for retirement then? Certainly you can't do it with any fixed interest instruments - they are all below inflation or about at inflation at best.

Total value of U.S. stock market is $95T+$46T for bond market, of housing, $33T and commercial real estate, $17T. That reflects the breakdown of "where people invest".

Because bonds make no sense by themselves and are only needed for rebalancing of stocks, 74% of investment goes into 'stock market'.

You should be able to pay however you want- if it's easiest for developers to accept payment via Apple and its's easiest for users to pay developers via Apple then so be it. That would mean that Apple provides a valuable service that nobody else can. Using lock-in and walled garden as a strategy to make up for lack of innovation is a no-go. If they were truly innovative in this space then they wouldn't be afraid.

You should also be able to install any app-store that you want and regulators should force Apple and others to host competitor app stores in their own app store.

I feel there is a difference as the cells are actively doing something, they are fighting entropy and create structure.
In a similar way we are with our programs, of course what we do is a crude approximation of what neuron cells do in other ways. In other words, I wonder it there is a process that we could use to speed up neural training by looking at how the brain does it.

Unfortunately it still is. It has improvements though, so at least it wasn't stagnated like, I don't know, EU's APIs for VAT exemption queries.

Technically speaking, you can still access certain details (like name and gender) on the i-PIN system, but on the other hand Korean PIPA is very strict (stricter than GDPR except in certain religious activities, pointed out on the draft adequacy decision) and is actively enforcing the law.
If the verification has never been done, and to comply with any regulatory requirements, they will likely perform the check once. Just because your account is 18 years old is most likely not going to pass various regulations which they need to comply with.

Could you elaborate? I've traveled extensively over the last 40 years or so, and I can't see how to any extent those companies (which I assume must be among those listed - Google, Apple, Amazon, Netflix..) are making traveling easier.

If anything it's more difficult, just as the parent post said - in the past there was no risk for having to need a Google Pay account just to rent a bike at your destination.

All in all, as others have said, it is still easier to move between distant countries now than ever before, and these may seem like minor issues, but I feel your pain!

I moved a few times between France and the UK, and every time I've had to move all my accounts (Youtube, Amazon, Playstation store, etc.) but most importantly I have two separate Paypal accounts to handle both countries.

There are also some French administrative websites that I can't access when I am in the UK, preventing me from booking appointments to renew official documents. I have to use a VPN and even then the pages fail to load most of the time and are 100 times slower than when connecting physically from France.

I've spent way more time with Racket than Common Lisp (just picked it up over the last month) and Racket just doesn't have the same development experience as Common Lisp.

I'll bite by answering a different question: What brought me to Python?

1) The Standard Library. I should say this while biting my lower lip with a "That ass!" look on my face, nevermind the usual xkcd. I do not have to hunt down twelve packages on CPAN, wondering if any of them will work on Windows, or require an enormous set of dependencies, or if the eighty percent of the topic it actually accomplishes overlaps with my needs. Nope. The Standard Library just has all of that, in a fairly conventional syntax. I do not want to re-implement a spec from scratch, either.

2) My first IDE was Notepad. Now I use Notepad++, largely because it auto-saves. I do not want an IDE that looks like the cockpit of an F-15, I just want to write a few lines, see if they work, and continue.

3) One of the PEP 20 bits, goes something like "there should be one obvious way to do it." And if there isn't, there's some strong cultural idiom that pushes it.

4) I could make it work on Windows. I didn't have to defend my choices to a bunch of people who will relentlessly shill their own distro. I work in a Windows shop, I am not going to jump ship just to use your language, for fuck's sake. I curse here because you would not believe the number of times I have had to have that incredibly irritating conversation.

5) There's just Python, no need to pick. (Okay, now I have to deal with Python 2 and Python 3, for what are Very Good Reasons that, no, I'm not going to explain to you, but in the beginning, that's all there was).

According to The Lisp Curse, Lisp falls afoul of #3 and #1. Nothing really stops it from correcting these. We have enough Lisps that #5 is a problem. All of the odd-numbered ones are really a variation on a theme, the Paradox of Choice. #1 is a lot of hard work, on top of it.

There is an intuitive version of this. Volume in n dimensions is C*r^n (C is some constant) and surface is the first derivative, leading to a ratio of n/r (the C constant cancels out). Hmm... Maybe not that intuitive
As somebody who works with many Indian coworkers in tech, out of curiosity, could you explain if "even" is commonly used in India in that way?

> Even I was interested before

To me as an American, often hearing "even" used this way by Indian coworkers, it's confusing. To me the sentence reads like this:

> Even I, who you would expected not to be interested, was interested

Something like it's an unexpected claim. This is confusing to me because there's no reason for me to expect that you, specifically, aren't interested. But in contexts like your sentence and talking with coworkers, it seems like the intended meaning is something like the following:

> I, too, was interested

Please don't take this the wrong way; this is just a question from somebody who's a fan of linguistics. I've encountered so many constructions in English from Indian speakers at work that I've never seen from other speakers (like the way "itself" is used [1]) that it makes me wonder where it's coming from. Based on my research so far, some things come from trying to carry over words/grammar from Indian languages, and some come from British English as used during colonization.

1: I often hear sentences like "today itself" to mean something like "today [emphasizing today]" which is not said in standard American English, in my experience

That said, I've found Excercism in its previous incarnation a fantastic resource. Various programming languages had learning tracks of exercises grouped by level of difficulty, like koans. A volunteer mentor would follow your work and send reviews, finally okaying it or suggesting you put in more work. Then you could compare your answer with those of other members. Because there were so many languages involved and they had similar or sometime even identical exercises there was also a kind of Rosetta Stone effect -- ah, yeah, here's what a good Pythonic solution to this looks like, whereas in TypeScript it'd be more like that, in Clojure like this, in Elixir like that, and so on.

I love lisp and emacs but saying that all the good tooling is in emacs and emacs is not like modern ui and so should be made like the modern ui is arse about face.

Making emacs like other ui would be wholly counter productive, it's just not the paradigm the whole system is designed for.

The tooling for other editors should be created or updated to allow developers to use their editor of choice.

And I know the come back will be that all the developers are in emacs and won't develop for the other editors and unfortunately that chicken and egg scenario needs to be solved.

Sticking an ipad on a horse and cart will not make it a Tesla just like updating emacs to have some buttons and CUA won't make it appealing or useful to a sublime user.

This is where Lisp should be able to kick ss. You can do literally anything you want semantically. I mean looking at the Stallman circuit Lisp [1] from 1975 should show the power language construction inside of Lisp. Most of the APIs I use don't have that expressive power. Another one that blows people's mind is the amb operator [2], and that you can construct new novel control flow directly in the language itself, including in libraries.

I frankly don't understand why the programmers of the world aren't demanding Lisp.

> I've never met another developer that observes how their customers (users) use their own stuff. [1]

Is it so rare? I've worked with product managers who did customer visits and shadowed users through entire days and interviewed their managers and their managers' managers to understand their whole job, not just how they used our software. Most programmers don't have firsthand access to users except when they are working on internal tools, and in that case I feel like it is commonplace to walk over and ask to shoulder surf for a while and then ask questions. Generally it's only a problem if the users themselves don't have the freedom to grant permission (like call center employees) or if travel or access to other facilities is involved. (Although you are right that talking to as many users as the author did would required management buy-in for an engineer that needed to push back other work to make time for it.)

The author's case is a special case within a special case: not only were the users internal to his organization, but they were doing software development, which is a job he himself is trained to do! There are reasons why product management is a full-time job, and one of the big ones is that learning the users' business and their job roles is a difficult skill in itself. Usually a user-facing application will have a product manager, and in most cases it won't help if you try to intervene and start doing their job for them.
Besides pointing out that a large chunk of what the original poster wrote is just factually incorrect, my point was that it’s hardly a “nightmare for those of us who travel”, since the remaining actual issues are so far solvable with a VPN, and even my mom can use a VPN.

Yes, it’s inconvenient and shouldn’t be this way, but it’s far from a nightmare (yet). The true nightmare is situation in a few places like the aforementioned China, which is where we may be headed judging by TFA, but we've a long way to go.
You need to examine how stocks return though. Because interest rates are so low today the dividend yield of the S&P500 is about 1.28%. Since the late 70's in particular it has been a steady march down as interest rates have declined over that same time.

So to your point yes the "return" has been similar in the last 20, 30 years as historical averages but it's coming from asset price inflation rather than income streams. That's an important and notable difference. Investors are willing to bid up the price of stocks to get any kind of return (since the returns of bonds have fallen so much) creating more asset bubbles and volatility. Additionally, what if we can't really take interest rates lower at some point? Yields on the S&P500 will be nearly tiny and asset prices won't be able to climb further as there's nothing left to harvest.

I'll grant it's not as simple as I make it out here - companies have employed strategies to buy back stock rather than pay dividends since it's logically a better thing to do in terms of taxes.

FWIW, stocks are sort of a bit player in the financial markets. Bonds are king and the main player overall and as their yields have fallen this has been good for businesses in many ways (cheap money to take risks with) but it also means that really risky bonds are not yielding much for the level of risk they are associated with.
I don't see PHP this way. PHP was never the new hotness. It was never cool. Whereas Ruby definitely surfed the fad wave, and this wave is gone now. Similarly, Erlang was not a cool kid, it just was somewhere in the background at telecoms, and slowly started being used in other places. If I had to bet, I'd expect Ruby to be completely gone in 50 years, while Erlang will still be there.
