I've wanted a pipeline operator in JavaScript for a while now. Working with Elm and Elixir has made me think of problems in terms of data transformation, and the pipeline operator is the biggest reason why. "Take X then do Y, Z, J, K, L and finally send it over to the client" makes what would be complicated code be only as complicated as the reader wants, as they can inspect the functions they care about (assuming they even want to).
Omg. Good luck my friend. This is going to draaaaaaag on.
yeah, types in js e.g flow are useful in quickly learning the codebase but end of day you end up fighting the tooling. instead of the tooling to help you. I prefer inferred types such as what F# or Elm have.
Or so we thought, yet here we are with low interest rates and no inflation.

That LF at the end means now I need to figure out how to get that into the registry (maybe it's trivial but it takes an additional ΔT and ΔW.

As for the opensuse one, I am not sure if the check works with empty content. Again, not hard to figure out, but additional ΔT and ΔW.

Plus, these sites can change whatever they do at any time and if I customize to match them, then I am at their beck and call as opposed to controlling both sides of the equation.
The criticism is important because of how Bayes keeps using the probability between experiments. Garbage in Garbage out.

As much as people complain about frequentist approaches, examining the experiment independently from the output of the experiment effectively limits contamination.
It's a mindset thing. The pipeline operator encourages you to think about repeatedly transforming static dumb data. Dot-operators encourage you to think about repeatedly asking some smart blob of state to mutate itself. So the pipeline lends itself well to a purer mindset.

F# itself much prefers the pipeline, because of how its type inference algorithm works. F#'s type inference finds it much harder to work out the types when you use a dot operator, because so many possible types T could have `(x : T).Foo(bar)`, all those types are unrelated to each other, and notions of "has a member `Foo`" are quite hard to get right in the type system. By contrast, if you call `x |> List.map bar`, the types are almost totally fixed in an easy-to-understand way.

"Handling many different data types with a single function is an annoying thing to get right" - no, this is very common, and generics even make it easy.

Capitalism is the only system that seems to work at all under the realization that society itself will never have a moral compass.

Outside of small communes, any society that heavily relies on trust doesn't work.

That's not to say that capitalism works well, or that we can't reign in some stuff (public works, monopoly regulation, etc). But a capitalistic base is the only system we've figured out that works at all.
Agreed. The only clearly justified use cases I’ve seen are illegal or unsanctioned activity.

The only things Bitcoin and Monero really excel at is avoiding sanctions, buying drugs on the dark web, ransomware, and as an alternative if your entire country goes to shit (e.g Venezuela).

I think for this reason crypto will always be around in some form, but I doubt it will ever be mainstream.

Central Bank Issued crypto currencies will almost certainly be a thing though.
I mean I see comments like this from a lot of people, but if you're in the top 1% of income in America you could probably buy a house in pretty much any urban space outside of major tech hubs/NYC.

A lot of people don't want to live in the suburbs, or in a "2nd tier"/up and coming city, but they are still very affordable, especially for someone in the top 1% of incomes.

It's a bit odd to describe it as "dire". You earn more than 99% of Americans, and people who earn less are still buying a ton of houses. You could probably rent for the rest of your life and still have a higher NW than 90% of Americans.

If you do really want a house you'll probably need to make some concessions on your demands, but tons of people do that anyway, and they are buying a house and they probably are not making 1% level income.
I went into a place known for smoothies/slushes a few months ago. They were out of the frozen yogurt they use in something like half of them. And then tried to sub with almond milk or something.

I am British, so mostly British comedians. This isn't a given, but American comedy relative to our palette can seem very fake - although some quintessential "British" acts don't do it for me whatsoever, e.g. I don't find the IT Crowd funny, I don't find Mitchell and Webb particularly funny either.

My absolute all-time most bestest favourite comedian is Chris Morris (Brass Eye, Jam, Four Lions) - who is a genius whose work is still blisteringly modern today even though most of it was recorded 25 years ago now. The way he uses neologisms is pure trip-fuel too if you enjoy banned substances.

https://youtu.be/r3BO6GP9NMY, a little sample.

https://youtu.be/0lhJ3YJkfcg longer but more insane sample

He's not really a standup though. I think Norm was probably my favourite long-form standup all things considered, and it feels slightly weird comparing him to a British one because although he definitely reminded me of the subversiveness of comedy this side of the pond, he was still very much an American comic. Comedians over here are typically much more personal if they do "bits" (i.e. expertly performed but often true stories), or just pure one-liner merchants. Similarly, "improv" has always seemed very alien to me.

If I had to pick one pure standup it would have to be Frankie Boyle just by the volume of laughs I've got out of him.

If you want endless hours of fun British comedy (mostly improvised, I'm a hypocrite), listen to a little of the old Gervais, Pilkington, and Merchant radio shows from back in the day.
Millennials are turning 40 this year.
>there is an abundance of unskilled labor and the average person (the laborer) has to derive income from work. They can't just say, "Puh, this isn't worth it any more!"

This was true throughout the 2010s, but under full employment even a low-wage/"unskilled" worker can realistically go get a different job if they don't like the one they have. There's probably an Amazon warehouse nearby that would hire them at a higher wage, or a restaurant if they're willing to do a different kind of work.
Inflation is a squishy concept, but generally people refer to it as a general decrease in purchasing power for a unit of currency, across the entire economy.

When a single good, housing, goes up in price, that is not a general shift across many different goods.

What sort of "real" inflation are you talking about here that's bigger than on paper? What's your metric?

This argument doesn't work.

For example you need more digits for Fahrenheit if you include the over 100 F range. An outside thermometer typically does not go to 100 C.

IIRC my car thermostat goes from 18 C (below that is "max cooling") to probably 30 C in half C increments. There you could save a digit if you used Fahrenheit. Big deal?

There's not much of a difference either way.
I mean banking leverage is lower, accounting on collateralized debt is better, consumer/speculator leverage is limited while lending requirements are still mostly higher…

Those aspects are different than 2008.

The global market is still exposed to other forms of over-leveraged contagion (aka incestuous ownership), but just saying “US housing prices are higher than an over exuberant peak 13 years ago so therefore its a problem without really considering other supporting or negating factors” is pretty uncritical.
The value of unskilled labor is probably much lower than everyone wants to think it is in a global economy. There is no incentive to pay workers in developed countries "fair" wages when that labor can be done at a fraction of the cost in the developing world. Service sector jobs are probably hit by this because while they cant be outsourced, all the other employment going elsewhere just means they have leverage. Some places like Canada even import developing world labor to work these jobs because they cant find local employers for the wages they offer.

Most of the productivity gains have probably come from finance and technology, which would explain why those are some of the most lucrative career options now.
There are plenty of countries where this is not achieved, and it's unlikely to change without some kind of pressure, either from the workers or from the government

Productive or not, the debate must go on. It is the foundation of our republics.
Property prices will drop when credit is harder to come buy for businesses, as prices are being driven up by investors who have moved into residential housing. It’s a shame we can’t get the votes to financially penalize investment ownership, and instead give preference to home owners living in the homes. You’d think this would be something that employers would rally behind in the Bay Area as it would help them staff up.
housing is now an "investment" for everyone with extra cash and not just the owner occupiers. I live in a condo and honestly the majority of the units that have sold in my smallish 35 unit building are to people overseas, who then contract out a manager and rent the unit out. Non owner occupied units don't get tax abatement but that doesn't seem to matter.

I couldn't afford to live in my building if I hadn't bought around 20 years ago.

Its kinda astonishing that the past 10 years have been that.
The production costs of digital goods are naturally scarce. We "just" haven't (yet) figured out a good way to compensate people for those, so we turn to artificial scarcity.

Won’t the productivity of stocking shelves go up if, for example, technology makes grocery stores more profitable? Perhaps technology helps stores order locally customized inventory that will sell better (and waste less), or perhaps delivery or curbside pickup systems help stores compete better against online stores. Even packaging improvements could increase productivity.

The fact that the stores themselves are physically able in practice to enjoy this increase in productivity without increasing pay to the people stocking shelves says very little about how the productivity of stocking shelves has changed.
No, they can just not withhold your tax obligation. Mandatory withholding is not even the norm -- KS and MO don't require it, it seems only Eastern seaboard states and maybe CA do.

People keep walking this back to massive fraud but more likely what anonymity will do is just allow businesses to escape onerous operating issues. E.g. having employees in some states is worse than having them in others because of those state's perceived requirements to operate an LLC in that state, and other related rules. It's not even clear if some of these requirements are enforceable federally.

I agree that content consumed by facebook/instagram can be addictive. But I don't think this is unique to them, I think youtube (my personal weakness), netflix, television, video-games and movies all fall into this category. The particular problem with instagram is that it encourages people to post the "highlights" of their life. Therefore people end up consuming a super un-real version of what life is and end up depressed when they compare it to their own. This issue is not a problem of an algorithm or moderation but of one's personal expectations.

There are tons of great examples where algorithmic feed is useful, particularly when your feed is related to activities such as cooking, music and exercise.

In theory I think the concept of forcing the companies to behave a certain way is ideal but I'm still unsure of what type of legislation could be put in place to address the problem in the article.
Suburban DC here. I'm not in the 1% and can afford a house just fine. Plenty of homes here sub-$600k. A 1% income should be good for a home well in excess of $1 million.
Not every game is going to find success. We could do with a lot less of the major publishers ideas of "pay us $80 after the battle pass for the same shit you've been playing for 4 years with a new paint job".

If an independent company like New Blood can find success simply by making good games and being a good company then major publishers can follow suit or die off.
And yet it's not the thousands of games that are released each year that include extra advertising, but the the largest and often most successful ones, because they know they can get away with it, and they're the ones with a built in audience to sell to advertisers.

If they are pushing/submitting based on actual facts and studies, then I don't see the problem. It seems like the overall argument is following a pattern of

- A vaccination is currently a requirement for participating in society.

- There are studies showing that having the virues is just as effective (or more) than a vaccination.

- There are places where "having the vaccination" meets the requirement for participating in society.

And, from there, discussing why the US doesn't also follow this logic.

Now, I can't speak to the studies validity. And an argument can be made that it's harder to verify that someone has had the virus already or some such. Or one of any of a dozen other reasons "why not". But having a discussion of the "why not" seems perfectly reasonable.

After 6 years, 41.0±31.3 kg of the lost weight was regained (p=0.0002) while RMR was 704±427 kcal/d below baseline (p<0.0001) and metabolic adaptation was −499±207 kcal/d (p<0.0001)

The lower RMR remained and sometimes continued to drop after they regained the weight.

Any normal person cannot assume that their RMR is something they get off of a website calculator, or that it will behave like linearly. Speaking as someone formerly fat, the metabolic adaptation did persist for years after I lost all the weight, putting me around 400 below where I should have been on the chart.

The problem with cryptocurrencies is not hyperinflation in the same sense. It is that they are being treated as speculative assets, not currencies, and are thus subject to the same wild swings in value.

This makes them terrible for use as an actual currency, which must be reasonably stable in order for people to use it in safety and comfort.

Well, Apple is working with a company called Rockley Photonics, who claims that they've done it: https://rockleyphotonics.com/rockley-unveils-end-to-end-digi...
The answer to that question seems obvious: it depends.

First, the 1930s aren't a great point of comparison (with Great Depression occurring then). The 1950s are a better comparison.

Second, yes the broader advance of science and technology has lifted many boats simultaneously - we've all benefited from the advance of communications, medications, travel opportunities, etc (with some notable setbacks for those forced to pay the environmental costs of some of those advances).

It's unquestionably better to be a non-white person in the US today than it was in the 1950s, even with all the systemic issues that still disproprortionately hinder them today.

But by many other criteria, quality of life is worse:

- Affordability of educational opportunities (i.e. the housing/school/childcare cost inflationary nexus, university fees)

- Housing insecurity (many families pushed dislocated by rapidly rising rents).

- Level of education/qualification required to achieve middle class comforts like housing security and good education for your kids (it'smuch higher). As others have noted, IPads and PlaysStations are not indicators of middle class comfort - paid vacation is.

- Increasing despair/hopelessness/alienation/failure due to winner-take-all dynamics, with effects like the drug/opioid epidemics, mental illnesses, homelessness, high concentrations of violent crime in disadvantaged populations (despite overall lower crime than in the 1970s-1990s).

- The spillover effects of all the above on those who are generally better off.
