It's basic cognitive fatigue, the basis of the success of the big lie.

If American's don't adopt the big lie, then all of a sudden they need to accept:

- the US enacted genocide on Native Americans and still effectively does via reservations and enforce poverty

- the US started the vietnam war and would need to realize that we did in fact do the Gulf of Tonkin

- the US has strongly backed dozens of repressive regimes that have collectively murdered millions of people. By strongly backed, I mean trained, advised, and directed these operations to kill and torture political opposition "inconvenient" to the US.

- the current Mexican cartel leaders were formally trained by US operatives at the "School of the Americas", as part of the program to strongly back repressive regimes

- the Iraq War was a massive scam from its inception to the end

- the Afghanistan War was a massive scam for 90% of its period

- the CIA and other security agencies have a 100% functional total information awareness and infrastructure for complete totalitarian control of the US. All it needs is one president to decide to activate it on a whim. It's basically a switch sitting in the Oval Office.

and so so so many other transgressions.

Yes but Eastern Europeans also don’t do this as a hobby, they all have regular jobs. Why would they leave a regular job for one-off short term opportunity? The money is better, sure, but not good enough to account for the extra trouble and potential underemployment once the visa expires.

It used to make sense for Eastern Europeans to seek a better career in the UK but a 3 months is not a career.

I could care less about this tiny problem.

Is there a Mini owner satisfied with the mechanical part of their vechicle after 70k?

They have such a low oil pan, you don't dare not check it.

And every owner complains of things breaking down. A few days ago I was talking to a Mini owner.

Age friend has to go to England for a year, and gave the car to this guy, with the caviet of taking care of maintance.

The car had 50k--so it was new? First week a new Serpintine Belt.

Then faulty sensors, and a list of problems he was listing off.

They are cute though. I'm looking for a salvaged one to electrify.

This is blatant misinformation. Melbourne has been the most locked down city in the world. Understandably, the working class for whom WFH is not an option, have had enough. The protests are predominantly second/third generation Mediterranean immigrants, women, and children.

As Scandinavia rolls back all restrictions, Australian media work in concert with the government to stifle any dissent as the country spirals deeper into totalitarianism. Citizens are unable to leave the country, a violation of the UN declaration of Human Rights.

I'm not sure what argument you're responding it, it doesn't sound like it's one I made. The point I'm making is about how these cables are characterized by the OP, not US policy. What they reveal is much closer to The Quiet American than, I dunno, Star Trek's Cardassians and that's an easy thing to check by looking at the cables.
You're right, and since the H1-B has effectively been "captured" by west coast tech companies, there are only a small handful of Senators that care to really fix it.

Perhaps the best band-aid fix is to add H1-B quotas by state, because then you might end up getting enough support throughout the nation for an actual solution. The military industrial complex has a lesson for us to learn?
I am not disputing that patents provide the recognized inventor a period of monopoly rights which allow that person higher profits for the patent period. What I argue is that this system as implemented does not actually increase the rate of innovation as we are typically told. I argue that in fact this system dramatically slows the rate of innovation. This occurs because every patent benefits one individual while a thousand others are now prevented from discovery along the same lines as the awarded patent. A system without patents would see more market competition among motivated inventors as one good idea cannot carve a moat around any particular concept. You can see a real world example of capitalists competing without patents in China, and the result is rapid innovation. Here is a written first hand account from a respected hacker and engineer. [1]

So with both open source and with Shanzai you see that large numbers of people are often motivated to work on the same problem. The function of patents is to prevent those people from pursuing forks of good ideas. This is why 3D printers had gone down in price by 50% after ten years under patent, but in the ten years after the patent expired they went from $25000 to $300 (1.2%). A multitude of curious people will make more engineering progress than one well funded group with a powerful legal monopoly. This is my claim about an under appreciated aspect of patents and this has been discussed in scholarly literature. [2]

A common question I hear relates to funding. People say no one will make investments if someone else can copy their work. But I argue this does not mean investment will cease, but that the nature of investment would change. Broadly it would change from fewer larger investments to more frequent smaller investments. One quarter you get a boost of funding to beat the competition to market, next quarter they copy you but then you copy them back and the cat and mouse game continues. This is actually true capitalist market competition. [3]

So my argument is that patents do not actually accelerate innovation as we are told, but they actually slow down the rate of innovation. And it makes sense: the sole purpose of a patent is to limit innovation for everyone but the patent holder. We were raised on the story that the secondary effects are positive, but that story is not so simple.

Finally, I will say that secrecy can be punished and openness can be enforced. If we all understand how important open source is to rapid innovation, we can make public commitments to boycott those companies and fund efforts to reverse engineer their work. It’s already the case that open source projects avoid proprietary modules as much as possible. We could do this as a society for all goods.

Yeah, I was about to make the exact same comment albeit mentioning Sophocles and his roughly 120 plays.

If you’re into classical literature, what was lost can be extremely tantalizing. I read Cicero’s De Re Publica recently, of which only about 35-ish% survived. What’s there is so interesting, both for what it says about the structure of the Roman republic as it existed, and what an educated traditional Roman of the senatorial class thought about how best to structure society and government. The concluding Dream of Scipio is enough to make you cry, not just for its extreme beauty and elegiac tone, but also for the fact that the dialogue it concludes only came down to us in a mutilated state.

While much of what was lost was surely dross, we also lost some of the great achievements of human culture too.
I wish I could read your van article, but it says that I'm not "subscribed". What exactly does that mean in the context of a blog? Is there some 'Pricing' page that I glossed over by accident?

You don't know a priori that they work like other turn signals.

You are presented with a new paradigm. Blinking side AND arrow direction. All bets are off. You now have to decide whether they indeed kept them on the right side or if they innovated and it's the arrows that are right.

Many EU-spec cars have the brake lights flash under emergency braking, and the hazards come on if the car comes to a stop after that. This is how it was implemented in several cars I owned - a C-class, an Audi A5, and now in a EU-spec Model 3 as well.

One general thing is that it is the most ‘classic’ works that are copied the most and most frequently. Early works in philosophy from Plato or even Aristotle are much more likely to survive than, say, philosophers from later antiquity (can you even think of many?) Of course that isn’t to say that all the most ancient philosophers’ works survived—we have little of Parmenides for example. Perhaps another reason for Plato and Aristotle to survive particularly is their relevance to Christian theology, but I don’t really buy that as we have more Plato than Aristotle but Christian theology is more Aristotelian.

A simple argument about mathematics or engineering can be made by going to Constantinople and looking at the Hagia Sophia. Much technical and practical mathematical ability would have been needed at the time to construct it but we have little interesting mathematics from that time (6th century). I find it improbable that we would have such mathematicians as Archimedes and Apollonius around 250BCE, then roughly nothing for 750 years, and then the Hagia Sophia. I find it more believable that the tradition of mathematics continued but that only those most ancient, foundational and well-regarded works were sufficiently reproduced to make it to the present. To be clear, I am not trying to claim that one needs the kind of mathematicians produced by Apollonius to build a large dome but rather that a society capable of continuing that kind of technical ability for so long ought to have also been supporting the continuation of technical mathematics.

One then has to wonder: if this work was being done in the Greek-speaking world, what did this continuation look like? Among the known works, some of Apollonius’ work was not really improved upon until Riemann over 2000 years after his death.

As a long time, low volume contributor, I see 2 explanations for what happens:

1. There is not a lot to contribute as a lot of matters are already covered. This is not a bad thing at all.

2. Moderators do a very bad job. Last year I created an entire article about a popular vehicle, it took 6 months to be published and it was just about a page long with solid references. At one time it was rejected because it had "not enough external links", so I added half a dozen links to the dealers selling that vehicle, on top of the original manufacturer page. This discourages contributors and it is a serios problem.
I hear you, and you’ll see me pushing back in somebody’s Tobin the rest of the thread, burning think there’s some nuance here. If we viewing as a piece of activism and not history then I think it becomes interesting. I think it’s also useful to consider the work apart from the public persona of NHJ who is something of an internet troll.

Puncturing the nationalist myth surrounding the revolution and founding is I think worthwhile. It was after all a violent revolution, carried out by people who disagreed strongly with one another. There are contradictions in the founding that at the same time could be troubling an inspiring. Deifying the founders does them a disservice. I thinking some sense their project was about separating the state and power from personalities.

They were flawed people but accomplished something incredible. I’m against the sate conceptually, but they did a lot to bring governance closer to people.
I disagree. Chelsea Manning bears the overwhelming fault from a US Legal perspective. He was a member of the armed forces under oath and knowingly shared classified information.

Assange has no oath to the US and despite his interest in the material it is quite a stretch to somehow suggest he “made” Chelsea share this info.
The thing about Australia is we love to walk eyes wide open into failure. We watch policies being implemented in other countries with real world data to learn from, and will then just unabashedly ignore it and do it all ourselves to achieve the exact same outcomes.

This is across technology, politics, climate, business, the works. It's ingrained culturally and will never change.

Given time and resources, that group of women will gain experience to be as performant as the group of men who have had centuries to learn how to do politics.

I can see the use case in this (even though it entirely defeats the purpose of 2FA) but one glaring omission I see on the homepage screenshots is the lack of an audit log. I supposed I could trust others with one-time codes, but I'd like to verify that nobody is doing anything funky (e.g. a disgruntled employee or a compromised account) in a quick who-did-what-when dashboard, maybe even with a notification when someone is requesting a lot of codes.

If access requests are actually being logged, the audit dashboard deserves a place on the home page in my opinion.

Im not familiar with chess - why do some games last that long? Or was it multiple games?
I would prefer not to estimate at all because estimates are, in the Lean sense, waste: i.e., something that your customers don’t value.

Unfortunately, that argument never worked with my managers at project budgeting time.

As a result, because I was really bad at estimating, I spent a day teaching myself function point (FP) estimation. I also found a chart detailing how many hours of effort an “average” organization required to build projects of varying FP sizes. This meant that it was easy to make a simple spreadsheet using the chart data and Excel’s FORECAST function to generate estimates.

With that approach, my subsequent projects were always within 10% of the estimate, which is much better than my pre-function-point estimates. Combining that approach with the Agile idea of working on the most important features first meant that my projects were largely free of drama come deadline time.

See, the benefit of being in a large market is that you have large buffer when something goes bad in one part of it.

That’s definitely a Brexit issue, because of UK being out of the single market the shock in the UK cannot be absorbed by the other countries in the EU.

If Spain did the same mistakes, there would not be shortages in Spain when everything is fine in France. Without any central governmental intervention, the sudden demand would be absorbed naturally through the rest of the EU.

That’s why UK has issues everywhere but not only in, let’s say Leeds. Because UK cities are in the same market, they absorbed sudden demand as a whole up until the whole market dried up.

> Dealership Monthly Investment calculation is based upon a Dealership un-installing modules on vehicles sold without Pulse.

The profit calculation is based on preinstalling the system on every vehicle that goes on the lot, and then uninstalling it on request. This means opting out costs the dealership real money, from installing and then uninstalling it.
The demand for gas is increasing because the wind isn't blowing as much as they thought it would.

"terrible" here means within the ballark of Express and usually lower than Phoenix (the Elixir web framework), far slower than Go, and than most Java framework. The source is the TechEmpower framework benchmarks, with the caveat that Vapor isn't in all the categories, and the usual benchmarks caveat.

For why it's not performant, I don't know precisely. Part of it may be because people don't use it a lot on the server side so it's not as optimized as the others. From what I've heard, Swift was also optimized for low memory usage rather than raw speed. Outside of that, I don't know. I would expect it to be around Go.
