That seems reasonable to believe. However it would be difficult to prove, because this configuration will rarely exist in reality. People whose genes bias them toward traits we think of as "loving" will tend to actually be loving, and therefore their children will not be emotionally neglected. I don't know if I could express certainty either way on this proposition.

(For anyone who thinks it's impossible for loving-ness to be genetically programmed, read about the domesticated silver fox experiment.)
Yeah, that's a fair point. I just thought that this was an interesting example of what is possible more than what one would need to worry about in practice.
> That perspective isn't one you'll find popular in the nations that should be able to deploy programs like these, but don't. Their voters don't see them as helping the poor, and don't see the poor as likely to invest any protective income into survival.

That political discourse is easy to explain: while it is certainly helpful to "give the fish" to the starving one, it's less clear when you give the fish to "the idle" one instead of teaching him to fish.

The main difference is the meaning of "poor". The meaning of "poor" in Africa is someone that may eat once a day or not even that. In the west, the poverty line is way above that.
That's a great improvised way to have an alternative way to create bullet effect rather than to stick with CGI.

The first version of BrainTool required the Google Drive integration to work and I quickly found that it was a barrier to adoption for some people and so made it optional.

I don't think anyone is claiming that we should only look at Togo and not other nations that have implemented successful policy. On the contrary, governors should look around the globe to find examples of success stories in order to build a corpus from which to learn about the realities of policymaking.

Shenzhen seems to be an example of making a small number of extremely wealthy individuals and a large number of sweatshop-tier factory labourers; I wouldn't class that as an example to follow unless you only care about creating millionaires.
By all means compare SF against Manhattan. The argument doesn’t change.

The East bay is cheaper that SF too, but so what? Your argument is that increasing the density of SF will make it substantially cheaper.

The example of Manhattan contradicts you.

only an anecodote for me but I was on a team in 1997 or so where we exactly were brought in to a financial client to write for them a "thin client" in Java, explicitly using the fact that Java was so strongly hyped that it would allow the team that was hiring us to poke a hole in their existing VB codebase and break up some of the calcification in their technology organization. In the early meetings we were pitted directly against a tech manager there who was very strongly advocating for Smalltalk; we as an outside vendor were allowed to win that argument that Java / "thin client" etc. were all the way, literally verbatim to the article's paragraph:

> The World Wide Web diverted enterprise attention away from fat clients and suddenly web thin clients were the hot new technology. At the same time Sun Microsystems’ massive marketing campaign for Java convinced enterprises that Java was the future for both web and standalone client applications.

my anecodote continued to match what this article says:

> Even though Java never delivered on its client-side promises

you can say that again, within one dev cycle the original idea of delivering a web-based servlet was gone, as there was no support for any local machine / file / upload / etc access, we then delivered a fat java client where I ended up having to write basically all of Swing UX which hadn't quite been invented yet as the native checkboxes/ textareas / etc all performed like crap on the little 486/pentium machines we were deploying towards.
I really don’t get the point of that comment, that was a genuine question.

This inverts the burden. The prosecution proposed the exhibit, and so the burden is on them to show that everything about it - that the chain of custody was valid, that the processing done on it was meaningful - is correct. It's not the defense's place to prove them wrong.

All of the other evidence was processed through forensics software, and displayed on Windows laptops. Then, at the last minute, the prosecutor asks to show this late-discovered evidence on an iPad. Watching the trial, that felt suspicious - why should this one piece of evidence be shown in a novel way?
MPEG-1 and -2 are still largely readable nowadays (even if the OS doesn't always include the codec) and they're a lot older. I don't see AVC or HEVC going anywhere, either. They both have tons of hardware support. Hell, Xvid AVI still floats around the pirate scenes sometimes

Given that education requires spare income, and spare time, how are you supposed to gain qualifications/training to allow you to up your income?

Assuming that everyone was able to become qualified, given the saturation in the market place of cheap, new people, how will that glut of supply increase media wage?

You have a workplace accident, not your fault. Now you have huge hospital debt. This is coupled by inflation on fuel and housing. Minimum wage doesn't rise. how are you supposed to earn more?

The problem is that people have confused speculation and investment frankly. An investment generates value over time. Speculation is based upon an asset's value appreciating. When dealing with "pures" look at how they would perform in a hypothetical long term stable priced market.

According to [1] USA is 86th in the world according to unemployment. Most of the countries with lower unemployment than USA have paid paternity leave. Please stop cherry-picking, you're not fooling anyone. 120 counties in the world have paid maternity leave, often about a year or more of it. That includes countries with higher standards of living than USA.

Oh God yes. Computers don't get impatient, don't let their temper spiral out of control, don't "bravely" try to get to work on 3 hours of sleep, don't display crab-bucket jerk moves, etc. Cars bring out the worst in people and it comes with life altering consequences for innocent people.

Yes. I don't even have a job that pays well and I could quit my job and live for years if I wanted to off my savings. Now I'm perhaps an outlier, but you should have a buffer in case you can't work for whatever reason or something unexpected happens.
I wish we saw more posts like these. Refreshingly sincere, and focusing on the data itself. Kudos to the author for putting this together.
The two statements aren't mutually exclusive.

As a society, we do a shit job of ensuring everybody has access to quality education. Its starts young - poor school districts struggle to provide the services they were created to provide. Hell, even relatively wealthy school districts tend to be overcrowded, with faltering infrastructure, and are prone to leaving children behind.

This continues into post-secondary, where you need money, and lots of it, to get a degree. Sure, the flagship schools are some of the best int he world. But, take VA's flagship state schools... they average nearly $20k/year for tuition alone. And given their locations (UVA - Charlottesville, W&M - Williamsburg, VT - Blacksburg) the vast majority of students will also be paying full room & board, driving costs beyond $30k/year.

And that's just the flagship schools - there are a whole host of mediocre colleges that charge the same or more. And then there's the for-profit schools that are a case study on their own.
I have seen the same thing, the article is correct.
50% affordable housing in a single area is a model most cities have moved away from. There has been a substantial effort to distribute affordable housing geographically to reduce the clustering effects that lead to high crime and gang formation. This flies in the face of that.
‘Google Translate’ Deceives You
I don't think the "Make it Right" part should or can reasonably be left out of the equation, otherwise I could just compute something if all you care about is speed. That said, I have used a performance-first approach several times using own old and new solutions and libraries and have found early benchmarks to be a great tool to weed out untenable (i.e. order-of-magnitude slower) stuff. This then can mean I have to write fewer tests to make plausible my own or a 3rd party solution does in fact what I expect it to do. At a certain point performance becomes correctness.
Take a look at their evidence that chase "openly admits to hating linux and freebsd". It's a reddit post with 3 votes about a CS response saying not supporting linux doesn't constitute an ADA violation.

How is "being both mentally and physically fit" a form of intelligence? Not to say it's not important, or something to work toward, but let's not turn this into some weird participation trophy "everybody is smart in their own way" nonsense. Having clinical depression doesn't make you more or less intelligent. Being socially awkward doesn't change your intelligence. Conflating EQ as a different "kind" of intelligence is silly.

Move in particular is painful in C++ because to make it work C++ needs to invent these "hollowed out" objects that would be safe to deallocate after there's no longer a real value inside them. Rust doesn't need to do that.

Suppose you've got a local String variable A. You will move A into a data structure which is going to live much longer and then your local function exits.

In C++ when the function exits, A will get destroyed, so when A is moved into the data structure, A needs to be hollowed out so that whatever is left (a String object with no heap storage) can be safely destroyed on function exit.

In Rust the compiler knows you moved A, therefore there is nothing to destroy at the end of the function, no work needed (at runtime).

The argument that that the only reason shenzen housing is cheaper than SF is density is absurd on its face.

If your argument is that we can increase SFs population by 10% to maybe get a 30% reduction in average home price, then I agree. But that doesn’t change affordability.
I'd recommend continuing to play with it - I use sunlight lamps and there are definitely levels that work for me without wrecking my night vision for the rest of the house. Of course, you can also brighten the rest of the house, even during the evening!
I would also be concerned with how these things scale in terms of the display.

For instance somebody might have a HiDPI or Retina screen or they might be zoomed in or out on a particular web page. Or for that matter maybe you want to scale the size of the image so it fills the screen horizontally or vertically.

The scaling algorithm might maintain the the dither or it might smooth and blend it. Maybe it looks OK in the end but I wouldn't take for granted what happens.

When I zoom in and out on that page some of the images like the greek guy do OK consistently, but the dither takes on an unpleasant structure at certain sizes of the ocean image.

Get off Twitter.
Totally agree. Drive belts are becoming a thing more and more, which I would deem to be a disruption. Far less maintainence is needed, no oil involved, no chain links, they last way longer than chains etc.

But these obviously only work on single speeds or enclosed-gear hubs. For derailleur-style gearing a change away from chains with the properties you described would actually really be a good thing, although I do not see it coming. With regards to power loss, chains get better and better, though.
Birthrate isn't my point. Per your chart birth rates are down for everyone. The fact remains that poor people have more children. And more to the original point, people aren't being forced to leave their children.

One is that one of the participants is a virtual bank on its own. This would be similar to the old banking system. How do you send money to someone who uses a different bank? By telling your bank to talk to their bank.

Meta: The title of this post was different earlier this morning. The change doesn't quite conform to the rules, using a subtitle(?) rather than the actual title. But more interestingly, the bizarre bird name and lack of context actually makes it seem more clickbait-y, not less. Perhaps a title change striving to follow the letter of the law but not the spirit of it?

Caveat: I'm not arguing for another change or passing judgment. I just thought the change itself was notable. And bird names are ridiculous.

Uncle Bob Is Not a Fraud and May Even Have Shipped Software
There is such a thing as lot size and footprint in real estate and things are dramatically more affordable if they are built on 1/4 of the land. People used to live in small tenements but we’ve zoned such property out of existence. Just because people think 1500ft is a need these days doesn’t make it so.
I'm just arguing from the principle that people should be allowed to desire certain living conditions and work towards obtaining them. Not saying the current state of affairs is ideal.

Nevertheless it seems OK to me if, say, a city designates some area for building and says "this is for a part of town with lots of parks and only single family homes" or whatever. Then it would be unfair to later come around and say oopsi, now you'll have to accept "affordable" homes in your neighborhood.

Presumably the city sells the land to the builders, and it comes with a certain promise.
