I'm curious about the difference between free speech and the right to a megaphone. From what I've gathered, the problem isn't that social media publishes harmful posts at all, but rather that social media promotes bad posts to tens of millions of people. Isn't that a difference that regulation could rest upon?
The cliff is irrelevant, if you leave before you fully vest your pay rate does not actually match what you claim.

The reason I brought up taxes (which might seem odd to people since compensation usually ignores them) is because they will significantly change the equation for various reasons. (AMT, RSUs taxed as short term gains and not long term, state tax affecting comp regardless of cost of living, etc.)

Ultimately, any compensation number that rolls all of this up into one number is mostly useless for actually knowing how much money you’ll have in N years, but it is useful for comparing offers, which is fine - but then these numbers shouldn’t appear without qualification in the type of discussion where personal finance is involved.

Not to mention that since this is a forum where many people are involved in startups, a 50k salary often (ok, maybe not often but I’m on 1/1) turns into several millions in a few years. Does that mean founders should claim they were making $2 mil per year? I don’t think so - but that’s the only comparison available if you use levels.fyi.

> Regulation isn't necessarily opposed to a free market

In fact, it's required for any market to exist in the first place. Without regulation the concept of ownership goes out the window. "Free markets" would look like anarchy... and exactly as you lay out in the river analogy it would be utter chaos with everyone acting in their best interest like "damn the consequences!" - it's human nature.

Sorry if I'm coming off as abrupt here - I'm aggressively agreeing and building on your point... IMO the markets require regulation when all is said and done. People who point to a "free market" often do so to shield themselves from the same regulations/rules that are designed to keep the markets afloat just like Pelosi has done here. It's gotten to the point that the words "free market" are almost always a sign of a bad faith argument.

If I have a choice between someone who used insider trading to make money and someone who lied about election fraud, a direct attack on democracy, I choose the least evil (or best of) the two people.
I wish there was a third party system.
Pelosi has been in congress since the 80s. I do not think congress-critters will support higher ethical standards that prohibit them from profiting off of insider information if they think that means putting themselves in a straight-jacket for the rest of their lives. The ability to profit off insider information is probably a reason some of our congress-critters stay in office rather than retiring and pursuing goals elsewhere.

Through the 80s and 90s, I recall politicians and talking heads using the phrase "...even the appearance of impropriety". I'm tempted to conclude there's something telling about the way this quaint phrase seems to have disappeared.

EDIT: not saying term limits are the answer, just that I can see the relationship suggested.

With 538 members of our government bodies making trades at "random", with typical trading intervals, it doesn't seem so outrageous that a few times a year there will be a trade that looks to be made on insider information.

I'm not saying it never happens, but I think it's difficult to separate "insider trading" from "getting lucky" when you're talking about 538 generally well-off, active traders.

It's like when a CEO offloads stock before it drops and everyone loses their minds. But if you dig in to the story, the CEO is just selling stock on a regular schedule.

Naturally, we considered this! :) We needed a larger set of tree node types than Apache Arrow in order to perform some of these operations without descending all the way down a subtree. For example, the implementation of the slice described in the video I linked above requires list offsets to be described as two separate arrays, which we call `starts` and `stops`, rather than a single set of `offsets`. So we have a ListArray (most general, uses `starts` and `stops`) and a ListOffsetArray (for the special case with `offsets`) and some operations produce one, other operations produce the other (as an internal detail, hidden from high-level users). Arrow's ListType is equivalent to the ListOffsetArray. If we had been forced to only use ListOffsetArrays, then the slice described in the video would have to propagate down to all of a tree node's children, and we want to avoid that because a wide record can have a lot of children.

So Awkward Array has a superset of Arrow's node types. However, one of the great things about columnar data is that transformation between formats can share memory and be performed in constant time. In the ak.to_arrow/ak.from_arrow functions (https://awkward-array.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_auto/ak.to_a...), ListOffsetArrays are replaced with Arrow's list node type with shared memory (i.e. we give it to Arrow as a pointer). Our ListArrays are rewritten as ListOffsetArrays, propagating down the tree, before giving it to Arrow. If you're doing some array slicing and your goal is to end up with Arrow arrays, what we've effectively done is delayed the evaluation of the changes that have to happen in the list node's children until they're needed to fit Arrow's format. You might do several slices in your workflow, but the expensive propagation into the list node's children happens just once when the array is finally being sent to Arrow.

As far as what matters for users, Awkward Arrays are 100% compatible with Arrow through the ak.to_arrow/ak.from_arrow functions, and usually shares memory with O(1) cost (where "n" is the length of the array). When it isn't shared memory with O(1) conversion time, it's because it's doing evaluations that you were saved from having to do earlier.
Python has optional static typing, which I think is getting better with each new release, e.g. allowing `T | U` for union types in 3.10.

Types can be checked with mypy: http://www.mypy-lang.org/

For Django, there are these two typing packages:

- https://pypi.org/project/django-stubs

- https://pypi.org/project/django-types

I can't vouch for them, but it looks like they're being actively developed.

I like the idea of full-stack JavaScript (or TypeScript), but last time I tried to use Node for a back end, I couldn't find anything that compared to libraries/frameworks like Django, Rails, SQLAlchemy, etc.
They now have a public, cryptographically protected record of their activities, available for inspection using automated tools by anyone who's interested, including law enforcement.

Yup. Docker helps with this. As can e.g. cloud9 or codespaces. If I read it correct, this is the main reason Github moved there[0]

But I consider that a workaround. When the tooling gets so complex that you need more (complex) tooling to help manage that, the problem lies deeper.

Compare it to e.g. Go or Rust. Where you (or a CI) builds something and deployment literally can be a `scp target/release/foobar foobar.com:/usr/bin && ssh foobar.com systemctl restart foobar`.

I say this as someone who has been hosting Rails apps for decades: it sucks and it is hard. I have a full-blown Rails hosting (ansible, Digital Ocean, Linode and some more) but still often grab a Heroku or do the docker-dance, because some edgecase is causing havoc.

There's a difference in Second Life and the whole "metaverse" just as there is a difference between the time and tech then and now.

Not every tech is going to be successful at every time. The same solution can fail once and succeed some other time when there's a change in the market and/or the underlying technology.

There's a much larger number of human beings on the internet now. And they are not just on the internet, but they actively use it for a large amount of time. That's the chance in market right now and what will drive the adoption of metaverse soon.

The thing that we should focus on right now is whether we want a metaverse owned by Facebook or something that is defined by open protocols.

It's the same old problem. Everyone hates Congress, but loves their own Congressman. And tribal politics being what it is, nobody wants to throw away their vote on a third-party because they're worried that will cause The Other Side to win.
My mom got into an accident with her 2007 Toyota Prius. Now, it could be that she, as an older person, simply didn't push the right pedal. However she claims insistently that she did brake but it accelerated instead.

She didn't kill anyone but did get injured minorly and she got a very nice price for her totaled Prius (above market rates).
It may be technically different, but it’s no different at all for the average consumer who hasn’t done a threat analysis.

Could you please cite a source that says most transmission is pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic? Is that new with the delta variant? The studies I've seen have more recently concluded that asymptomatic transmission is far lower than previously thought. Although it probably doesn't matter, since the plurality of symptomatic people below the age of 55 are going to have symptoms hard to distinguish from a cold.

Regardless, you make a fair point, but for a virus to kill you, it's going to be more severe in earlier phases, and less likely to be transmitted by a person in a bed than one walking around. Sure, they might have spread while they were walking around, but the proportion of time they are infected and mobile (higher spread) is lower than if the virus is milder.

Covid hawks seem to have only one answer for all news items: be more afraid, lock down more. It's tiring, and reminds me of the right-wing equivalent after 9/11: Everything was terror, or potential terror, and you need to be afraid, and if you aren't afraid, it's because you are unpatriotic, stupid, or both.
Just because people have complained about "the way things are nowadays" for a long time, doesn't mean there will never be a point where things change and it's legitimate to complain about things nowadays. Things are changing much faster today, than they were in 1950
> [...] enough humans to run an advanced society. [...] I think generational change is a major driver of innovation [...]

That is a good point, and I would like to add that currently most young people on this planet are not part of innovation. They have to make sure they get food and shelter. If in the future we solved poverty and everyone has access to good education and a relative safe life, many more young people can be innovative. One can dream ;)

> How do consciousness and intention emerge from materials that are not alive and that have neither consciousness nor intention?

I think the question shoud first be not about "how", but rather - "does consciousness emerge from the materials".

Most cultures in the past have maintained ideas about the duality between spirit and matter. Nowadays we are so adept at manipulating matter we always explicitly assume that everything must be material in one way or another.

But here is this consciousness thing that does not give in. And there is no angle to it where it can ever give in. If somebody creates a machine and claims it to be conscious nobody can test if that is so. And further - nobody can even test wheather the inventor is conscious himself.

> foreign influence of the US is in decline because of severe domestic distractions

I agree that much of the domestic chaos is a distraction, and that the U.S. should be focusing on longer term existential issues that affect the whole world, but I wish more people realized how much of the distraction and chaos is intentional.

> We didn't re-invade Afghanistan because some US soldiers were killed during the withdrawal.

And the failure to do that was very explicitly the basis of massive domestic criticism of the Administration; it took executive commitment to weather popular opposition to maintain the withdrawal policy.

So, while the facts you recite are accurate, they don't actually support the argument about political support you are making.

> Service A could be written in Java, service B could be written in Go, service C could be written in Whitespace, if you’re brave enough.

I've always found this to be such a huge strawman. I've yet to encounter an organization that uses a variety of technologies. Usually it's one of the top most popular, sometimes two, rarely three different languages. Devs migrate between teams, hiring is done to match the skills already onboard. Coding styles (even if they differ slightly between teams) usually follow corp "best practices"

Even if it's a multitude of services, the culture of the codebase is usually very monolithic.
IMO, the big advantage of microservices over monoliths (if they're done right) is reducing iteration times. It's just a lot quicker to build/run/etc. I think monoliths are a fine starting point but once your iteration times get slow, that's when it's time to break it up.
It is how it works. The rules don't matter; the attorneys know what words to say to give a judge reasons to either admit or reject application of any rule. The coin that remains in a case is likeability and making the judge's life easier.

The net result is a system where attorneys are falling over themselves to prove who is more obsequious to all the judges. If you become a problem in one case, you will suffer in your other cases, too, so individuals with legit complaints against the court can and will be ignored.

The net result is a court that ignores all but the most mechanical rules (and loves to stall on those when it can, because it approximates the appearance of "work"), and has no mechanism for correction. I'm sorry, but the rules don't really matter, to anyone.
No, because keys for a car and keys for a wallet are wholly different, and even then, picking a lock (bruteforcing a keyspace) isn't comparable, because the value, intent, and purpose of a car is not in its properties of being able to be transferred, transmitted, and it's future value increasing (although that last one is true incidentally), but it is primarily used to get from A to B.

If you found a gift card with the PIN in the street, it would entitle you to a moral inhibition. If you went through a stack of discarded gift cards and found ones with change, you would be less morally wrong, but just as legally right.

Finding a debit card in the street with the PIN is akin to finding someone's wallet.dat file on their github. That is stealing, so no comparison.
If that were true, it would not be possible to run a sustainable business in any industry. Legal systems need to generate consistent results with respect to contract law in order for commerce to be successful and efficient.

It's this attitude that is diminishing our security posture. Users want gifs, they want shared locations, they want heart emojies, they want unicode.

Ruby and Elixir do have surface syntax in common, and Rails and Phoenix are clearly from the same conceptual direction. They're more similar than, say, Rails and Spring Boot.

This is not surprising: the Elixir folks were fairly high-visibility in the Ruby community before they did Elixir and Phoenix.
Climate changes are way exaggerated. Almost all official predictions by IPCC etc, which aren’t addicted to clickbait, say that over the next few decades we will lose some GDP growth due to climate change. But world GDP will still grow. There won’t be starvation, or famine, etc.

This is not the world ending apocalyptic scenario that’s thrown around in the media.

Perhaps a few countries will become uninhabitable, but I find that unlikely too. The current cases of countries that because uninhabitable dealt with the issues (eg Netherlands) and are still thriving.
It moves the needle. the predictable alternative is that I get into an argument about liquidity with someone that doesn't know this market. the predictable thing is to pull up an article from 5 years ago about the thinness of the crypto market, because google tells you what you want to see. the predictable thing is to not know about large OTC trades done specifically to show the depth of the market, or not know about the dark pools at all. the predictable thing is to then demand a source, which is not possible due to the very nature of dark pools, and then act like that validates their incorrect reality.

my dig is about introspection, how many other times have they made an excuse to miss all the alpha? are they actually comfortable with the decisions they've made, maybe they are. it just gives them an out to believe whatever they want. sentiment in the crypto space has generally gone this direction right now. everyone is aware of all the arguments against being in the space from traditional finance minded folks, and simply check their stocks and their crypto on two separate screens daily anyway.

Ask not what your country can do for you, ask how you can get just enough power to amass and horde wealth while masquerading it on behalf of the benefit of your countryfolk.

I am not American but I do live in a country that has a government. It's curious to see stories of people going from <citizen grunt> to <elected official> and then using their power and insight for personal gain, while never capitalizing on opportunity to force the changes that were campaigned on, when presented with unique chances to force the issue to be resolved.

There's such a focus on "getting it right, the first time" instead of "anything will be better than nothing, and we can re-iterate on this in the future".

An issue with government is much like the issues you face at work every day; too much focus on introducing "new", and seemingly never enough time to evaluate and improve "existing".
Because smart roads are a massive coordination problem. Counties and states already can't afford to do maintenance on the existing dumb roads. Many of those roads will see no maintenance or upgrades for the next decade. Even if we had the standards, widespread government support, and commoditized tech to do this today, it'd still be decades away at the earliest. Everyone is targeting rollouts in major cities a lot sooner than that.
