This only works if the employers don't see it coming.

In many countries (like mine) organised labour has a wage negotiation-followed-by-industry-wide-strike season. Every year, come rain or shine.

Industry has long responded by:
a) adjusting their 'final price' to accommodate the theatre
b) automating whatever they can
c) scheduling plant maintenance
d) learning which jobs can be eliminated and doing so.

All without paying a cent in wages.

Since they seldom get all this done inside 6 weeks, its takes the labourers years to recover even a 5% increase.

Many (mining, paper, logging, hospitals) even budget for it.
Yes. The example that springs to mind (and I get downvoted without explanation every time I mention this, so goodbye Internet Points) was the Covington Catholic affair--the still photo of the kid in a MAGA hat apparently smugly smirking at a Native American elder (the media reported that he was a Vietnam veteran which was an outright falsehood). The whole of the media developed the same narrative around the still photo which was directly contradicted by a widely-circulated, publicly available 2 hour video. The narrative was that some racist white kids disrespected a Native American elder while the 2 hour video makes it clear that kids had been subjected to a lengthy racist and homophobic tirade.
yes this is something we agreed to, when signing Lisbon agreement.

I totally misread the dates. Makes more sense now.
The search term you're looking for is "Keyword Spotting" (or "Wake Word Detection") - and that's what's implemented locally for ~embedded devices that sit and wait for something relevant to come along so that they know when to start sending data up to the mothership (or even turn on additional higher-power cores locally).

Here's an example repo that might be interesting (from initial impressions, though there are many more out there) : https://github.com/vineeths96/Spoken-Keyword-Spotting
>How many competitors to Windows popped up after the microsoft antitrust suit? Is there a "windows specific browser" to compete with Edge or IE which is from a former microsoft company?

I don't think this one really illustrates your point very well. There are no former Microsoft companies because Microsoft was never broken up. That was actually on the agenda until we elected a Republican president who decided MS just needed a slap on the wrist. Add this to the "ways in which the Bush administration hosed America" pile.

Somehow Facebook have a SOC2 (wonder who their auditor is and how much they paid them?)

Part of a SOC2 audit is demonstrating that you have a good BCP, and part of a good BCP is demonstrating that you have fallback communication mechanisms available. So, either their BCP was out of date, or possibly they just ignored it during the moment of crisis.

The fundamental issue here is that developers, at scale, cannot be trusted. You can trust specific ones to do the right thing but you can’t trust them all. Apple sees themselves as responsible for protecting all of their customers from this reality. Others call them “gatekeepers”. The example here is sharing an email address with developers. There are other examples like “no background processes”. Developers hate this becuase they see _themselves_ as trustworthy but the reality still stands: developers at scale cannot be trusted to do the right thing.

Now let me add my opinion on this: Should we have a platform that allows consumers to make a single choice ie) choose Apple, and by proxy never needs to trust developers at scale? Absolutely. Many people, especially developers, would rather trade some developer flexibility (multiple payment processors) and push some responsibility onto Apple’s users to continue making an opt-in choice for Apple. I choose them for my phone. I just them again for in-app purchases. Continue making choices in support of Apple for each layer of the system. I am not really sure what this buys the consumer. What is Apple blocking from you by forcing you to make that choice once, and then being forced to “never trust developers at scale” for the remainder of being an iPhone customer. Is it blocking “innovation”? Some people think that. I don’t see it. I see a company that pushes the hardware envelope with sensors, battery, operating system, etc, and works hard to give developers access to THOSE things. Maybe not a users email address, but is that really innovation anyway? I looked at this Paddle payment processor and they have some things like “pause subscription”. Is pause really an innovation that is being blocked by only using Apple’s system? Google has supported pause for a long time. Users want it, but to developers really want users pausing their subs? probably not.

You are making the assumption that the people who run the company _must_ be wealthy which is not something that has to be so.

Take Japan Airlines CEO. Certainly well paid but does not earn the crazy amounts that western CEOs of large companies tend to earn.

You can have everything you stated as a benefit without the requirement of a person who runs the company having to be wealthy.
As a founder I'll certainly take advantage of QSBS if it's relevant to me in the future. But let's not delude ourselves -- it's wildly unfair as a tax break. The primary use of it seems to be allowing angel investors to literally pay no taxes whatsoever on millions of dollars in windfall profits.

I am personally bullish on nuclear power, especially gen 3+ reactors.

I also think that nuclear advocates really shoot themselves in the foot when they say things like "it's just people being worried about scaremongering." It's true that many people over-rate the risk of health impacts and there is a real history of facilities becoming burdens for their sited communities. They become burdens both because of overblown fear and industry incompetence and poor lifecycle planning, but the history is real. You don't have to believe any FUD about nuclear disasters to see the graveyards of plants that were not financially sustainable.

I get that you need to use different tools to solve public perception problems, but they can sink an engineering project just like technical problems and I think we need to grapple with that reality if we want nuclear power to be at the center of our climate solution.

Accepting that, it doesn't invalidate the parent's point. If we don't know where in the brain the difference arises, the fact that eyes are part of the brain doesn't mean that it arises in that part - there are other parts of the brain.

That said, I expect you weren't meaning to restrict consideration to the physical eyes (the distinction does not seem relevant to the previous discussion) and using "eyes" as synecdoche for the entire visual perceptual system seems entirely reasonable (making dragonwriter's a potentially interesting clarification but not a disagreement).

1. Developers are not able to offer multiple payment systems for certain types of purchases when Apple forces apps to use Apple's payment system. By removing Apple's restriction, developers would be able to offer multiple payment systems and allow customers to have a choice between different payment systems. Apple's restriction prevents customers from having this choice, because it prevents developers from offering it.

2. We'll see when the Dutch situation is finalized. Epic v. Apple was filed in the Northern District of California, which is separate from the Netherlands.

3. You're missing my point. For instance, if you already have an Amazon account and you purchase an e-book to add to your Kindle collection, Amazon would get this purchase information no matter how you pay, since your e-book purchase is linked to your Amazon account. Amazon would already have your payment method (unless you haven't purchased any physical or digital items directly from them beforehand). Paying through Apple would only expose your purchase information to Apple in addition to Amazon, and at a price premium. It would not prevent Amazon from having the purchase information.

4. Payment processors such as PayPal also allow cancelling recurring subscriptions in one click from a centralized page. Apple's payment system is not unique in this regard.

Developers should be able to offer multiple payment systems, so that customers can choose between them. Some customers do not want to use Apple's payment system for some of their purchases, and Apple's requirement deprives these customers of alternative options. Dutch regulators have found Apple's restriction to be anti-competitive.
I worked for a startup that built their services using Python and Twisted. The codebase was a monolith broken up into several Twisted services, by the time I left it was probably 200k LOC of Python.

For us, the scaling problems started when we had two independent teams working in the same codebase. The extreme dynamism of the language meant that classes and data structures were being mutated willy-nilly in ridiculous ways across the execution flow. The lack of static typing made onboarding new developers difficult as they had to parse generations of excessively clever code and magic left behind by departed developers. This problem has only gotten worse in Python 3, which keeps piling on more ways to accomplish the same task.

The deployment story was also awful, but I don't think that's a surprise to anyone who has deployed Python at scale.

In terms of raw performance, at one point we estimated that our Python stack was adding 3-400ms of request latency compared to a comparable system written in Go. With the Python 3 deadline coming, we convinced management to invest in rewriting performance-critical parts of the service in Go, instead of the migration to Python 3. I left before the project was completed but we were already seeing massive improvements.
Who said anything about the hoodwinking? Regulators could have come in with a report saying X amount of changes are required costing Y amount of money. It is not beyond the realm of possibiity the owners realize it would be cheaper to shut it down than to make the repairs. No hoodwinking required.
Serious question: What about the parts and materials needed to make and package the tests (in Maine) - where do those come from, and can they easily get supply of those materials in the needed quantities and quality?

Its not just that. I remember in the build up to the war CNN having lots of patriotic style coverage with how great the US armies were, how bad Saddam was (and his brother), lots of pictures of jets and battle ships. Once the war started there were lots of amazing shots of smart bombs doing amazing things, but no coverage of anyone living there on the receiving end.
>"I don't remember anyone talking about "new economics""

Lots of people have been talking about how modern monetary theory (MMT) means that the USA can 'print money' (increase the money supply) without fear of inflation.
If they are truly eating well, then the vitamins should be unnecessary. It does seem that many people have a deficiency in specific vitamins, such as D. So it seems they at least need supplements if they aren't getting enough from other sources.

For example, self produced vitamin D is best because it can be more easily used and also raises serum levels for longer than than dietary or supplement sources.

He invested the entire amount ($1700 at the time, iirc) into his new startup before they'd raised any money: Paypal.

Then used the proceeds from that to invest in variety of things, including an early (angel?) investment in Facebook.

This is an effective deterrent, and would likely be enforced with a tax penalty. edit: By not allowing me to have the tax benefit, you effectively reduce the incentive to invest in my own business. This seems like a law that is aimed at fat cats that will miss, largely because fat cats aren't going to be investing out of their own retirement. On the other had, my neighbor just used $80K of his 401K to buy three vans for a new HVAC repair company. Had that been taxed, he would have had enough for one, maybe two vans, and been on a much worse cash flow trajectory.

See how the last year on that graph is 2018? Baker became interim CEO when Chris Beard stepped down in December 2019, officially hired around April of 2020. It also never reaches $3m.

Additionally, look at the ~2015-2018 revenue. That is when Mozilla was with Yahoo and making ~$500 million a year as opposes to the ~$300 million now. That is when the CEO pay spiked, I doubt it's stayed that high and they arguably deserved that pay for earning enough extra money to prevent needing these ads for an additional five years.

>You're right, she's making 3x Beard's salary.

Just to drill this home, Baker's CEO salary is not currently public.
All good points. Except I'd say that a major problem with annuities is one of bargaining power and purchaser sophistication, similar to why employer-based health insurance plans are better deals then open market plans even after Obamacare reforms. (Though HMOs like Kaiser seem to have a smaller gap.)

Annuity return rates suck relative to pensions and especially stock market returns (ignoring potential long-term risk). But I have the impression that if you're rich or if you're part of a group effort, the returns get better, much like any other class of financial instrument. But I don't actually know if that's true; never looked into it.

Similarly, if your annuity terms are bargained by a sophisticated party on your behalf, you'll likely end up with a more optimal cash vs future benefit balance. Whereas if the decision is left up to you, you'll do what the vast majority of people do, which is favor cash. And favoring cash is something even a financially conservative, risk-averse person might do, because to laymen "conservative" means cash in hand. Just a few weeks ago my dad explained to me that he wanted to cash out his old union-provided annuity and stuff the money in a mattress because he was concerned about Biden/Pelosi policies driving higher inflation. I wanted to be like, "WTF!?"[1], but I long ago learned not to argue with cranky old men, though I'm well on my way to becoming one. (It was a tiny annuity, anyhow, started only a few years before he retired. Definitely not worth lecturing anyone over.)

[1] Because almost certainly the annuity was inflation adjusted.
This isn't a division invented by me. It is a division that is put in place by those with money and power. You are talking about a fictional company with a "Great CEO" and employees are "pretty happy" with their position and pay. Even with your platonic ideal of what a "Great CEO" is, you'd have a hard time justifying the pay gap between bottom rung workers and C-suite
OTOH, if there is, using that as a control would give you a nice big signal!
Before I even read this thread it was pretty obvious this meant they never planned on offering WFH forever.

If they wanted some on site employees to handle these kind of outages, they could just pay their top 1% to come to office or move within 15 minutes of the office or something.
Somehow that doesn't square with the realities of resource extraction and manufacturing.
> They make decisions about what goes into someone's feed.

That's irrelevant to the law. The information itself is provided by another information content provider (i.e. whoever posted the status initially). That's who is liable for any damages caused by the content under the law today.

> Using an algorithm to show people content that they will engage with more is not 'showing' something.

All possible mechanisms of showing someone something with a computer involve algorithms. Even if you choose randomly, that is an algorithm. Same goes for sorting by date or alphabetically, since any sort is an algorithm by definition. There's nothing in the law that makes a special case for algorithmic decisions about what to show.

I'm not sure whether you're expressing a preference here, or a belief about the legal status of Facebook's procedures. In case it is the latter: in fact, it does not cross the line into publishing, legally.
I believe the US is one of 7 countries in the world that _don't_ have minimum vacation days (although I believe individual states could/do have their minimums?).

The others are (per Wikipedia):

* Palau

* Tonga

That said, your ability to actually _enforce_ your right to minimum holidays is going be pretty variable.

For what it's worth, I actually do understand your sentiment. I am also a pragmatist and practitioner and find that academic theory sometimes has to "bend" for lack of a better word.

That said, I was brought up to find what is useful and good regardless of whether it comes from academia or practice. It's a beautiful thing to be able to find a balance of building an operational world view that borrows from both theory and practice.

It is my personal observation that much theory is based on observation of practice + theoretical projection, followed by more observation - i.e. the scientific method.

I loved Adam Savage's comment that sometimes science boils down to doing stuff and writing it down. I think as long as we find a good balance in learning from the past and building on it, while not letting the past limit our future endeavors for no reason, we can have the best of both worlds.
What in the article makes you think that the shortages are not transitory? Maybe the shortage period will be longer than originally expected, but that doesn't mean they were wrong.

And WTF is this "new economics" bit? I never heard anything about that, either from government or non-fringe media sources. Links, please.

Because announcing there will be shortages is guaranteed to produce shortages.

I used to buy a sum total of six rolls of TP in 2019 (I use a bidet, so this is mainly for guests).

Right now I have a box of 24 in the house with two used all through 2020 + 2021 (no guests, that's why).

So that's 22+ rolls which I have taken off the market without utility, which is because the week I went looking for TP it wasn't there and you could order in bulk instead.

They pulled the lever on the trolley problem, therefore it is their fault, but not pulling is also a choice with damage.
