Hmm, I wonder if these experiences you and GP are describing are at all like my nightmarish Salvia trip--experiencing the collapse of the universe of experience and the certainty that everything I've ever known, been, and desired is an illusion that will all be pulled out from underneath me at any moment. Insanity.

Yet, somehow, I am glad I experienced that insanity--it showed me what direction I was headed in, "woke me up" to the inner world I was creating for myself, and changed my direction.

Still, wouldn't recommend the experience. It would be easier to just have a really open discussion with someone who cares about you and has some life experience, and have them tell you "you need to focus on what really matters--taking care of yourself, and appreciate life while you have it". I had to wrestle that lesson out of that incredibly frightening experience, which psychologically damaged me for almost 2 years.
Well I made the comment to point out, with the climate change discussion and all, that the big point is we don't want this stuff entering the carbon cycle. If it's good for this stuff to enter the carbon cycle, then climate change due to CO2 isn't a problem, burn it. If it is a problem, then it should be sequestered from the carbon cycle, like the stuff that came from the ground was a billion years ago, and some complex way of basically burning it is counterproductive.

$50 a month per employee per month sounds very cheap to me. It rounds to zero considering you’re probably doing things with the software that would be impossible without it. Unless you have astonishingly and uniformly high quality employees you probably couldn’t get to half the quality or efficiency you have with software without it. $50 per person is less than four hours of minimum wage labor per employee.

Users should be doing sanity checks of financial transactions on a regular basis. You even want an external party doing audits as frequently as is reasonable.

I just checked their demo, do they really completely ignore genres? I can neither find a node for music by genre, nor are they shown in the tables by default.
Slavery is perhaps not the right word, but prisoner could be. That’s why they are called “golden” handcuffs. Very few people escape this prison, but it is indeed possible and doesn’t require going out into the woods and becoming a hermit.

To continue the analogy, isn’t the jailer/warden also a prisoner? He too is stuck in the prison, perhaps for different reasons but stuck nonetheless.

+1 to all the above though I would place immigration at 3 (in terms of impact) and move outsourcing to #1.

Here's another overarching theme/cause that's often missed in these discussions.

Financialization of corporate sector.

There was this well known push by wall-street to show more and more profits which most of the big corporations succumbed to. The phrase is "maximising share holder value". This in turn lead to cutting down costs which has had big cascading effect such as outsourcing, cutting down on pension funds etc.,

What's not that well known is that about 30% of the corporate profit of US firms is now purely from financial investments and activities. Most of this money does not make it to the real world economy and people. I can go on for quite a bit longer on this topic but I'll let you form your own opinion.

Slavery is a strong word. But consider serfdom in Middle Ages.

When some historian looked at it they found that on average a serf of a French baron say 700 years ago worked less than 40 hours per week on average. Perhaps even less than 30. And there was no commute. David Graeber in his «Dawn of everything» discussed that.

If you increase the labor pool, the value of individuals in the pool goes down. There's no other way to slice it. If unskilled laborers are somewhat scarce, they may stand a slight chance of receiving a wage higher than the legal minimum (reasonable or otherwise).

WhyLabs cofounder here, so my opinions are probably biased.

When it comes to MLOPs, data makes it much more complex to handle. Think of it as the curse of dimensionality. Nobody wants to deal with metrics across tens, if not hundreds or thousands of features. In addition, data is often not stored in nice SQL based system with strong schema enforcement, so we see data bugs creeping up all the time. An example is when an upstream API service returns the 9 digit zip code instead of the 5 digit one. This sort of data issues can creep up at many parts of the ML system, especially when you use JSON to pass data around.

You can defend against some of these problems with some basic devops monitoring, but when you deal with tons of features this becomes a tedious task. DevOps tools focus on solving problems around code, deployment and systems health. They are not designed to address the curse of dimensionality above, and you sacrifice a lot by trying to reduce data problems into DevOps signals.

To be fair, I don’t think we need some fancy algorithms, but I think we need tools that are optimized around the user experience (I.e. removing frictions) and workflows for these data specific problems. There’s a lot to learn and apply from the DevOps world to think about data health, such as logging and collecting telemetry signals.
Hold up, the costs of all these services you mention does NOT come from labor cost. It comes from a pursuit of profit of investors and owners.

The US has two main political interests when it comes to the use of natural gas.

One of them is anti-fossil fuels and would not like to have a world where a large portion of the western world relies on fossil fuels.

Another faction is invested in the US fracking industry, one of the products of which is natural gas. The gas from fracking can be liquified and shipped in large quantities to Europe because it already relies on a lot of it.

Both of these interests have a common enemy: Russia.
Things that require labor get relatively more expensive as capital and labor become more abundant. This would be true even without government intervention though that doesn’t help. The below document goes into much more detail.

> The Baumol effect is easy to explain but difficult to grasp.44 In 1826, when Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 14 was first played, it took four people 40 minutes to produce a performance. In 2010, it still took four people 40 minutes to produce a performance. Stated differently, in the nearly 200 years between 1826 and 2010, there was no growth in string quartet labor productivity. In 1826 it took 2.66 labor hours to produce one unit of output, and it took 2.66 labor hours to produce one unit of output in 2010.
Fortunately, most other sectors of the economy have experi- enced substantial growth in labor productivity since 1826. We can measure growth in labor productivity in the economy as a whole by looking at the growth in real wages. In 1826 the average hourly wage for a production worker was $1.14. In 2010 the av- erage hourly wage for a production worker was $26.44, approxi- mately 23 times higher in real (inflation-adjusted) terms.
Growth in average labor productivity has a surprising impli- cation: it makes the output of slow productivity-growth sectors (relatively) more expensive.
Primitive Technology: Thatched Workshop
This article's title is misleading, its rather solving issue with ssh key management under WSL.

ssh-agent management has been a non-issue on Linux.

- ssh-agent supports setting up custom socket path while starting up

-a bind_address
Bind the agent to the unix-domain socket bind_address. The default is /tmp/ssh-XXXXXXXXXX/agent.<ppid>.

- use SSH_AUTH_SOCK env var to instruct about the ssh-agent's socket path to programs that depend on it viz ssh and git.

- an option is available in ssh config (since 7.2) which lets you load the key when it is required (basically when you run ssh or git clone) or reload it when the ttl expires

AddKeysToAgent
Specifies whether keys should be automatically added to a running ssh-agent(1). If this option is set to yes and a key is loaded from a file, the key and its passphrase are added to the agent with the default lifetime, as if by ssh-add(1).

So start the ssh-agent with either xinitrc or systemd user units or even a simple shell conditional in bashrc/zshrc to check and start agent if its not already running. Now set SSH_AUTH_SOCK env var to the socket path set while running the agent.

> I agree, but I am getting 1/8th of my waking hours back from commuting.

What about all the people who already knew spending 2 hours commuting was a terrible use of our time before the pandemic, regardless of how much of a bigger house we could get?

So we lived in dense cities, in walkable neighborhoods, where the office was a 15 minute walk away but so were restaurants, parks, grocery stores, and theaters?

But part of the exchange we made was that our houses/apartments were small, and were for LIVING not for working. We don't have a spare bedroom to turn into a segregated office, so instead the work/home life has been an overlapping mess for 2 years.
You sound very angry.

Your compensation is not absolute dollars but what you can get for those dollars.

Ideally the same dollar would get you the same everywhere in the world. That is not the case atm.

Instead, people at your new location will provide the same quality of work for fewer dollars, because they see what they can get for those dollars. That is your capitalist competition.
I'm sorry you experienced that.

> had to resolve by accepting the tiny odds

I think that's the right approach. Acceptance works wonders.

FWIW, from what I've read you won't go spontaneously nuts unless you're doing a heavy, heavy practice--hours per day for weeks, at least.
Adding more labor would drive down demand and hurt wages even more. This is econ101 stuff. The Democrats are working for the elite class now just look at how they backed the "working class" truckers
What other passports do you have available? The US tax obligations are onerous, but being a US citizen means good no-visa access to lots of places, and somewhere to return to if you want to.

I agree with this, there were inefficiencies within companies that did not get penalized because wall street was in its infancy. With the advent of computerized trading, higher levels of liquidity, more sophistication etc, earnings reports have become more important. I really do think in the 70s having a bad quarter is nowhere near the impact of having one now.

I think these inefficiencies existed basically everywhere:

corporations equities

the bond market

housing

private equity

basically every asset class. it was these inefficiencies that led to high quality of life for everyday people.
> I want to be able to quickly resolve any issues in person, not over voice call or slack, and I think that an environment where someone can tap me on the shoulder when they need help leads to overall higher productivity, even if individual productivity suffers temporarily.

It's too easy to make such statements without measuring anything. Are issues really resolved quicker, or they /feel/ like that? Is overall productivity higher? Let's measure that?
I don't think the newsletter pop ups is a layout design problem, it's more like an idea contributed by the marketing department.

Layout wise... you can totally have a website designed like a whole casino of dump truck emptied on you.

How does that work if a user is logged in and private data is visible on the page?

I’m thinking of building something that only renders public data on the server, and then later gets that which pertains to individuals through an API. But I don’t want to spend more time on a lot of complicated plumbing than on core functionality in my application.

A SPA seems like the path of least resistance here, since all you have to do is put the appropriate cache control headers on your API endpoints, and let the browser abstract it away for you. I know programmers like to build bespoke caching solutions, been there, done that, but you don’t actually need to.

My biggest gripe with SPAs is the overhead of building and maintaining an API for everything, but GraphQL takes away a lot of that pain.
In War with the newts during summer, the news reporters are complains that nothing is happening, there's nothing to write about, and then one of the news reporter suggest that some scientist should at least discover new vitamin so that they have something to write about.

Only people in upper class believe that more "low skilled" labor will help the middle and lower class.

Take Jeff Bezos. He doesn't like to pay salaries to warehouse employees, but his employees will not give up the few dollars per hour that keep them from starving and homelessness.

Now, we flood the "low skilled" labor market. What if there are twice as many workers available? Sure, someone will be willing to swap unemployment for a job with a somewhat lower salary?

Now, instead of companies competing with each other for labor... we have workers competing with each other for jobs! That's fantastic news for the upper class! They will work for peanuts, because otherwise they'll starve and have to live in a car in a poor neighborhood... checkmate!
Most of the greatest inventions come from immigrants. I think the structure of the H1B program and its easy manipulation is bad for the middle class but everyone in the United States is or came from immigrants.

It has at most a small and transitory negative effect on a very small portion of the writing class. The average worker benefits. If we want to help the lowest paid we can reduce they’re taxes or subsidise their wages.

https://fullfact.org/immigration/immigration-and-jobs-labour...

> UK research suggests that immigration has a small impact on average wages of existing workers but more significant effects for certain groups: low-wage workers lose while medium and high-paid workers gain.

The wage effects of immigration are likely to be greatest for resident workers who are immigrants themselves.

Research does not find a significant impact of overall immigration on unemployment in the UK, but the evidence suggests that immigration from outside the EU could have a negative impact on the employment of UK-born workers, especially during an economic downturn.

The impacts of immigration on the labour market depend on the skills of migrants, the skills of existing workers, and the characteristics of the host economy. This means that research evidence on the labour market effects of immigration is always specific to time and place.

For both wages and employment, short run effects of immigration differ from long run effects: any declines in the wages and employment of UK-born workers in the short run can be offset by rising wages and employment in the long run.
What do you consider the best NON-FM/TA reference? So many DOD publications seem to be 10% 'military objectives' and 90% 'how to navigate the world's largest bureaucracy.' I tend to find things like monographs from the military's educational institutions a lot more valuable, but then they're narrowly focused which leads to a very fragmented way of looking at things.

I'm not completely convinced by the lack of regulation argument.

I live in France, where unions are a thing, there's a minimum wage, plenty of regulations for everything. But I still see the same issues. The middle class is disappearing, income inequality rises, people can't afford to buy a shoebox to live in, etc...

But there are also the same exact issues GP complained about: moving of industry to Asia / Eastern Europe / North Africa, outsourcing of services to the same (think call centers), money printing like there's no tomorrow, financialization of housing.

Unions can only do so much. At the end of the day, if the factory closes to move two countries over, union or no union, you're still out of a job. So short of introducing tariffs or outright banning commerce with other countries, there's not much the government can do.
