I can only speak for myself but I can't say I've ever seen anyone talk about someone having been "canceled" unless they objected to the person losing their stature or were making a joke.
I think by those standards it would depend as much on persuasiveness as anything else. It seems really hard to differentiate between “from the future” and “from somewhere else more advanced”, especially with your constraints.

Even if you loosen some of the constraints it’s hard. You could show up with a Jeep and some people would think you’re from the future and some would think you’re just from somewhere else. Even if your predict their future that may not convince someone! Predict an eclipse and they might say eclipses are predictable (of course, they’re right), predict the outcome of a battle and they’ll say you can see the future but that doesn’t mean you’ve been there.
It feels good.

We absolutely love throwing people in prison for ridiculous lengths of time, because we are, for the most part, violent busybodies.

I'm just not even bothering with surround. I have a 2.1 setup with a mixer so I can have my computer, TV, and turntable all outputting sound simultaneously in theory. In practice it's just so I never have to switch sound inputs.
The US is a jigsaw of different legal jurisdictions with varying laws, legal standards and sentencing practices. A crime in one state with a life sentence might not even be a crime in another. I know this is a federal case, but it seems unlikely the case of the homeless person was too.
I have a hat that says "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" from the very first taping (and only seven months before the last taping!).
> Skilling of Enron fame got 24 years and was released after 12.

That's because his original 24 year sentence was reduced to 14 after a Supreme Court case vacated part of his convictions.

My bet, based on some calculators I've seen, is that Holmes serves (actually in jail) 14-18 years.
But there are technical ways this can be solved. Don't use their services is one.

I've got a lot of problems but you know what problems I don't have? Being censored and tracked by facebook and google. It really is very much an individual problem with individual solutions, though some may not like that fact because individual solutions don't accomplish their goals, it is still a fact.
And?

Never having a baby seems better than having a baby you won't be able to be a mother to for 10-20 years. It's not unlikely the kid would hate you when you get out of prison.

I’m not OP, but a strategy I’ve seen on Hacker News in the past might be called ‘clout hijacking’, wherein you get a momentary boost from someone who has an established audience already. A popular Twitter user, a YouTuber, a newsletter author, etc.

The frugal way is to make something they genuinely want to share to their audience, but, for some, you can also just pay them.
I have a very different opinion on China's totalitarianism (which I am very unimpressed by); I only meant to argue that China possesses expertise that we do not, yes, because of our own Ricardian motivations, but that leaves us in a position where we cannot build our own bridges, trains, nor even computer chips even if we wanted to. You can say we are no longer burdened with manufacturing our own goods, and have moved onto more productive, intellectual pastures, but I'm not so sure. It seems like we spent our capital building up off-shore talent and have enjoyed the largess of lower cost of living, leaving a lot of infrastructure unmaintained. I could go on with my cynicism, but it's not especially productive ;)
what about competitors? do u research competitors that might have already solved the problem also?
3 possibilities I can think of:

- automatically scrapping websites
- paying someone to do the work manually
- who knows, there might be a database that someone else maintains, free or paid, and the website just displays the information

Or a mix of all that.
She should absolutely be put on trial for playing with people's medical diagnoses. But that's not the crime she's been found guilty of yet, right?

Hopefully screwing around with medical tests will have much more serious consequences than stealing money. Hopefully this was just the first step, and having her in jail will prevent her from tampering with the evidence for the more serious crimes. Hopefully we live in a society that values lives more than money...
As many have commented, predicting a handheld mobile phone was pretty common; Dick Tracy did it almost a century ago.

What is harder is predicting behavior that new technology causes. From Robert Heinlein's Lost Legacy (<http://www.technovelgy.com/ct/content.asp?Bnum=595>) (1941):

>"How come," he asked as he came abreast, "they had to search for you?"

>"Left my pocketphone in my other suit," Coburn returned briefly. "Did it on purpose - I wanted a little peace and quiet. No luck."

There is an almost identical conversation in his Space Cadet (1948), in which a prospective student traveling to enroll at the Space Academy tells another student that he packed his pocket phone in his luggage, to avoid calls from his overprotective parents.
Because you are now punishing her, and the child who will be deprived of a mother. <- not endorsing this, but that's what may be considered.

I'm an engineer that's been IT problem-solving for over nine years professionally. I pride myself in my ability to see the bigger picture and carry out system architecture planning. I have experience with a wide variety of software development topics and technologies, because I worked in organizations where engineers had the opportunity to develop broadly.

I recently worked for a local cloud computing service provider. I was working on creating new cloud services taking full responsibility and ownership from conception to post-deployment in a collaborative, fast-paced environment. As part of this, I carried out research work on technologies and alternative service providers, because designing a new solution requires a thorough knowledge of the current state of the industry. At this point, I was deeply exploring AWS, GCP, AZ for example. After designing, I participated in collective implementation, as well as deployment and maintenance services. The microservice architecture and Docker were used intensively (I even wrote my own log plugins for it). Most of the implementation was done in NodeJS.

I also have experience in the field of many CI & CD systems, IaaC (I implemented my own Terraform provider myself), Packer (I participated in the implementation of cloud provider integration), Ansible, Python (8+ years for Django applications). Kubernetes is close to me, although we mainly used our own solution in this area. I'd love to get more experience in Golang, but other languages/tools/things I don't know I love to pick up too.

If you're a startup or small company / software house doing interesting work in need of out-of-the-box thinking and engineering skills, I'd love to talk. Solving engineering problems is important to me, so I am demotivated by following bureaucratic organizational processes of collecting approvals for months, so working inside a corporation is not for me.
Ummm… I do. It’s not a hard b sound, but it is there. It sort of moves the location of the “t” sound down towards a “b.” It defiantly does not sound like “det”.

And I distinctly pronounce the “b” in “plumber” (another example in the article.

Can you name another "wantrepeneur" that needed deterring by this case?

I don't follow startups that closely. The only example I can think of is Elon Musk's "full self driving" promises, but the gap between promise and reality is a lot smaller in that case. Even then, the claims are still mostly future timelines, not "it works now, no I can't show you, trust me!!"

Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

I have two questions:

(1) What learning pathway would you recommend a total beginner in programming to follow in order to develop their own microstartups or side projects?

(2) How do you come up with an idea for a given microstartup? Is it an organic process, or is it more about thinking actively of potential business plans? Do you have any advice regarding idea generation?

I'm pretty sure there is less organic content in proportion today than before, first because monetization wasn't in fashion, it was less common/accessible, but also because people who make organic content are fighting with SEO focused people who monopolize attention time / steal & rewrite organic content very efficiently. Less people viewing your organic content = less motivation to spend time on it.

If only we could send all these money obsessed intermediaries & creators to an island somewhere, left to scalp & scam & plagiarize each other out.
> No, Theranos was outright, egregious fraud, and most startups that "collapse under the weight of unrealized promises" are not committing fraud.

Most startups don't get the traction and publicity that Theranos got, however. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of founders would go to similar lengths given the chance; they just happen to have someone apply some reality check on them before things get out of hand.

The whole idea of still getting paid for work you did 20, 30, 90! years ago blows my mind. How does anyone think that's reasonable? Can you imagine if plumbers ("you're still using that drain I installed, pay up!"), firefighters ("still using that house I saved, pay up!"), doctors ("that surgery I did in 2003? Still bringing in royalties! Let's buy another boat!"), etc. got paid that way!?

>Yikes. Plus, my understanding is that > 10 means no minimum security camp and > 20 means no low security, so she would start off in medium security. - assuming it works the same way with woman as with men)

I'm curious where you got that understanding. Would you mind sharing?

Especially since that could put the khibosh on my retirement plans (commit a serious, but non-violent federal crime and receive a lengthy -- hopefully the rest of my life -- sentence at a minimum security "Club Fed"[0] facility).

Free housing, food, health care and clothes with no tax liability for the rest of my life? It makes me want to to massively defraud some congress-critters once I turn 70 or so.

Assuming I could be assured of conviction, I'd even hold on to the stolen money so it could be returned to the victims.

Yes, I'm being somewhat facetious. But decent assisted living facilities run from USD6-12k/month and once I've spent all my money, it's off to a Medicaid facility that isn't much better than minimum security prisons anyway.

This way, I can give my money to those I care about and not have to worry about spending down my life savings to ~USD2,000 in order to qualify for crappy accommodations at a facility that accepts Medicaid patients.

Just sayin'.

> I think this misses the point that parent is making

I don’t, it’s important to clearly differentiate between patents and copyrights, and parent’s example was discussing patents and not copyrights in the context of a discussion purely about copyrights. The reason patent terms are shorter is because patent inventions are considered more important to release into society in a timely manner than works of art. It makes plenty of sense that the business case for music and books and other individual personal or creative works might often take much longer than for, say, industrial corporations. There are hardly any solo inventors actively getting patents compared to the vast number of people creating music and art.

> Shouldn’t the system of intellectual property be the thing that needs to justify itself

It already is justified, and the article re-iterated those justifications while arguing clumsily (IMO) for shorter terms. I’m not debating whether we should have copyrights. I’m just exploring and curious about how to justify any given balance point, and how to reason more clearly about terms. It’s not that easy, and can’t be as quickly stated as many many people seem to assume. People are just throwing around numbers that “feel” good to them, not because they’re aware of the history of media and IP and the many varied problems and experiences people have had.
> On the other hand, perhaps the argument was that investors know there's a risk and know they should be skeptical.

If you've ever dealt with competent VCs, they are very skeptical, which is why they pretty much ignore your forward looking statements and just look at your current data. And the reason they do that is because forward looking statements can be all kinds of BS, but current data is just facts (unless you're lying about them, in which case it's fraud).

Of course, they also want to know your vision and drive for the future, but they'll basically ignore statements like "We have 10 big deals I'm the pipeline" and just say "How many signed contracts do you have?"

When I see a potential problem, see if I can solve it. See if it's already being solved, if not I pitch the idea to few people. If at least 50% got excited. I pick this idea to build.

You can find problems in your day to day life. Travelling is another way of discovering new problems. Every problem is not worth building a solution for. Only the burning ones with business potential.

I'm just an amateur, but if you don't mind some brute-forcing, it's enough to prove that for every n between 1 and (2*3*5*7*11*13)/10+1=3004, exclusive of 1 but inclusive of 3004, there are at most 23 numbers between 10n and 100+10n which are not divisible by any of P={2, 3, 5, 7, 11, or 13}. Let's call numbers which are not divisible by P "potential primes". Every prime greater than 13 is a potential prime but not vice-versa.

This obviously works for the n we check manually because if there are at most 23 potential primes, there are at most 23 primes.

This also works for n greater than those we check manually, because potential primes in this set "loop" when you get past 30030. Because 30030 is divisible by every prime in P, for any x which is divisible by P, 30030 + x will also be divisible by P. Similarly, if x is a potential prime, 30030 + x will also be a potential prime. This means that there are all the same potential primes from 0 to 30030 as there are from 30030 to 30030*2, and from 30030*2 to 30030*3, and so on. Since by brute force, there was always at most 23 potential primes in the first loop (plus the beginning of the second loop, to make up for the fact that we start at n=2), then it must be true in every later loop.

Here is code that does the brute force in ruby 3, finishing the proof:

require 'prime'

def get_cycle_extended(n)
# Get every "potential prime"
primes = Prime.each(n).to_a
cycle = []
for i in 0...(primes.reduce(:*) + 200) # + 200 to be safe
is_eliminated = false
for prime in primes
if i % prime == 0
is_eliminated = true
break
end
end
cycle << i if not is_eliminated
end
cycle
end

p get_cycle_extended(5) # just checking that get_cycle makes sense

size = 13
cycle = get_cycle_extended(size)

for n in 2..3004
s = 10*n
e = 100 + s
restricted = cycle.filter { |x| (s..e).include?(x) }
if restricted.length > 23
raise "false at #{n}"
else
p restricted
end
end

> It is too costly to dig and lay new fiber to the home underground

Digging is not required in many locations. Citywide rollout in Christchurch (400k people, low density) mostly used horizontal underground drilling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzGZl0jKRS8

New Zealand (similar size & population to Oregon) with a population ~5 million, used a lending model to fund a national fibre rollout in a private-public partnership. The Government lent money, but expected the project to have a final cost of ~$500M USD after loans repaid in 15 to 20 years. https://archive.vn/20170807221541/http://www.stuff.co.nz/bus...

84% of NZers can access fibre, and uptake is 64% and rising.
Handle billable work, ideally making a profit. There are quite a few new dentists graduating every year, $500k could buy an office in a decent location, plus another $100k to $300k to build out the space and gain momentum.

Figure 2 to 4 receptionists, 3 or 4 dental hygienists, the doctor themselves, OP, and whoever else they hire, and you can likely hit 10 employees.
Until seeing your comment I had never considered that someone might actually want any of that stuff, so I had never considered selling or otherwise parting with it since it is fun to keep all that stuff around. I'll certainly let you know first if I decide to part with it, though.
Thanks for a good reference! It makes sense that "users of a service" or "user of a machine" slipped its way into computer jargon, no need to be coined or anything.
