Great question. While some people might actually want to use Dokku for real project, there are fundamental flaws in it.

Firstly, you start with setting up Dokku and maintaining it while the whole idea was that you didn't want to deal with that sort of headache.

The other point is that the UI is very primitive and the UX goals are different from the ones I've followed.

Finally, what's the point to run Dokku when I charge you around the cost of the server you want to run your Dokku on? (That's the starter plan and it costs more for the plans with more advanced - mainly security and compliance related features)
A few years ago, my neighbor's PC wouldn't boot. Unlike similar situations I'd had with my own hardware, the power-supply wasn't dead -- in fact, at the back, there was a green blinking light. I went online and found people suggesting that, in such a case, blowing a hair-dryer at the power-supply might fix things. I tried it and...sure enough, the PC then booted.

Compilers generally try to preserve ABI between versions, or include compatibility options (like -fabi-version in g++)
Best way to keep it up-to-date is to make the documentation part of the development workflow.

If you can make the code itself generate a diagram (ie: MermaidJS) that reflect your code, it won't become outdated.

It takes time and effort to get there, so you might want to at least make a manual diagram to understand where you're at before undertaking this kind of automation.
It's fascinating to trace the genesis of present crash to Fed's policies post 2008 crisis. The interest rates were kept artificially low to prevent another Great Depression.

I think 2008 and 2001 basically saw "cut some fat and reflate the bubble" as the standard approach. I expect the same approach this time though I can't predict if it will work. This is basically the method of Greenspan and Bernanke, explicitly said that the Great Depression didn't have to happen, that juggling interest rates could have solved it.

The thing about these situation is that by just killing weaker players, the Fed allows the basic imbalances to remain and increase (income inequality, monopoly positions, speculative enterprises, etc). The Great Depression was the single biggest equalizer of income, I think in US history and certainly in the 20th and 21st centuries. Not that I'd be in favor of such a thing.
That's an awful setup. More states need to get DMV mostly online. I just go to their website when I sell my car and tell them I've sold it. No sending back plates (which is good, I keep my plates when I sell a car, because I like them).
And for these reasons I question the whole concept of money, working for it, and saving for whatever dream. Flood of money can be so easily created but you have to work for it? Then you have to max out on debt, speculate and risk your hard earned funds, otherwise you are falling behind. Central banks have stuffed this one up and I it is a much bigger problem than inflation.

No, I’m not an authority on investing, but I read about crypto all the time and I know the risks involved. All of you replying to this thread know exactly how risky it is for a person to invest on something as volatile as crypto without understanding what they are doing. Yet, you still want her to do it. That is exactly what I expect from scammers.
As a rule of thumb, it's better to buy when the market's in the red than when it's doing well. As Warren Buffet said, "keep buying it through thick and thin, and especially through thin." (He was referring to an S&P 500 index fund.)
That's not what the parent comment is talking about. Berezka stores were originally created to earn dollars by selling Soviet wares to tourists, and later gradually reoriented towards the few Soviet citizens who earned dollars and looked for some way to spend them. Not to be confused with other special stores unavailable to ordinary citizens that supplied party members.

What parent comment is talking about was the system of cash and cashless (безнал) roubles. Cashless roubles were used for industry purposes and couldn't be converted to the ordinary roubles available to the population. When USSR allowed cooperation (primitive private business) in the late 80s, it was used by many officials as a tool to convert the cashless roubles from the organization's they controlled into real currency in their private pockets. And a lot of oligarchs (including Khodorkovsky) got their fortunes that way.

It's ironic that now ordinary Russians blame the chaos and injustice of the 90s on capitalism and free market, whereas a lot of that was created by a state economy system and exploited by corrupt beurocracy of a communist party.
>You have a belief unsupported by scientific literature

I have repeatedly explained to you that the belief is indeed supported by a wealth of indirect scientific literature.

>You have a belief unsupported by scientific literature. If you want to claim that the reason it is unsupported is because of a vast cultural conspiracy against the type of research which would prove your point, you're free to do so.

Calling it a conspiracy theory is a dishonest deflection. It is not a conspiracy, it is a deeply rooted institutional bias. But I can play this game too: can you show me research which rigorously proves that genes and culture have negligible influence on social outcomes? Surely if this is such settled science, it will be easy to justify, right?

Except I bet you won't find any papers examining the genetic and/or cultural influences on professional success in various industries. It's like selective reporting, lying through omission with selective research instead.

But you will easily find a wealth of unfalsifiable and irreproducible grievance studies papers which completely sidestep genes and culture while dredging for their predetermined conclusions regarding the existence of discrimination. And because the socioeconomic factors of genes and culture are a forbidden topic, you end up with the preposterous implication that all discrepancies in representation must be the result of discrimination, as in the post that spawned this thread.

> Back in the days when interest rates went down, people started new businesses or expanded those they already owned at a huge pace. I mean the population as a whole not the businesses in the S&P500.

Did you miss the startup boom + bubble of the past decade or something

> Investing in the stock market with a financial advisor essentially buying the S&P or some other mutual fund..that's way less risky than starting your own business.

Increases in the cost of healthcare, housing, education, etc. probably has something to do with the growing precariousness of the population and less willingness to engage in risky ventures like starting businesses. Can't blame people for wanting to mitigating risk when the stakes are so high these days.
What does "the process was rather rigid" mean? Couldn't you just decline? (Although maybe it wasn't even safe for your use.) But then, I don't even understand why it would be safe to run except between floors.

Also, did you try pushing back on the replacement worker's work? It's a bitch to do, but I've gotten companies to either redo their handyman's bad work or just let me choose a vendor (which I would ask for after the 2nd time he showed up.) Stapled Manhattan distance wiring is not the same as diagonal through the dirt.
Conversely I missed out on $300k gains maybe by selling an asset too early in 2018 thinking a blip back them was the crash.
Just an excuse. Either he actually has changed his mind, or other people, possibly government, made him change his mind. I can definitely believe that the U.S. government does not want to allow just anyone to wield something like Twitter to their liking.

> Do these rockstar CEOs get the same compensations when they reach 60?

The average age of a CEO in 2018 is 54 years old [1], so I would say yes, they do. The average salary for a CEO in a top 350 company was $13.9M [2].

> They also start getting those paychecks later in their 30s compared to sport players

Compared to the average NFL player ($860,000) [3], and the average retirement age is 27 years old [4], which essentially means that an average NFL player makes perhaps 5 to 6 million dollars in their whole career. Other more forgiving sports, like NBA, puts players on an average of $8 million [5], and an average retirement age of 28 [6], so around 6-7 seasons.

It's worth remembering that these are highly paid professional athletes who most likely come from college teams, meaning that they weren't paid at all.

A CEO, on the other hand, doesn't spend their previous years as an unpaid intern. They are usually top executives already.

In short, CEOs do get paid better on average than professional athletes, all things considered.

> municipality/county/state/federal regulations on land use would have a significant effect on land value.

That's not "a challenge" it's a positive side effect. Those government institutions would be enabled to internalize the value that they create, which is presently being captured by random private parties that did not create it.
Yeah, it solves the spontaneity issue by guaranteeing only the richest have access.

I worked at a company that wanted to do this, and may or may not have behind the scenes.

When I explained that these could easily be gamed, their response was, "Why would someone do that?"

This was at one of the largest banks in the entire world while they were also trying to claim that they were a technology company that happens to do banking. Yeah, okay.
My city already does a two-factor assessment that includes land value and structure value for assessing my property tax. I don't think just doing the land value component is substantially harder although I do agree it's slightly harder.

It's not sensible to make ANY assertions with the market as it is today.
It was a joke. Money laundering is already illegal in most jurisdictions, including Canada [1]. Generally disguising the source of funds is financial fraud on its own, even without dedicated money laundering laws.

The canard that the housing market in Canada has been propped up by illegal money has been debunked so many times it's not funny. Everyone continues to prefer to think that over the real truth, which is that domestic speculation and house-horniness (house at any financial cost, down-payments from a HELOC on the family house, etc.) is responsible for the insane market. How else do you explain the 50%+ increase in rural Ontario over the pandemic? Peterborough didn't suddenly become the hot spot for laundering.

This all sounds like there is an inherent problem in the system itself, as it incentivises bad behaviours.

Why Netflix? I stopped my Netflix to use Amazon Video. Bad for Netflix but still good for streaming and tech.
Appreciate your feedback.

I think in a few years the demand will move from cloud operator role towards cloud/solution architect role.

No one really enjoys from dealing with the infrastructure that should just work. The main added value will be in orchestrating these tools which are easy to set up and building great solutions from them rather than dealing with unnecessary details.
> The drivers involved in those accidents are unaware that it is going to drop them off at a red light.

Probably the “traffic light ahead”, the multiple “sharp turn” and 25mph signs probably should give them a clue.
That sort of assumes that the owner of the apartment-dweller's property doesn't just increase their rent (pass along that tax).

As other people pointed out, there should/would have to be some mechanism to value the land for the LVT. The land the apartment building is built on in the city would have a higher value than some 2 acres out in the country. The owner of that land would have to pay the LVT, and the rent for an apartment on that land would reflect that - ultimately making everyone who lives in the apartment pay that tax, if indirectly.

Most modern day versions proposed allow you to defer the tax until the sale of your home or pay it as part of the settling of your estate.
> I always hated the cost center vs profit center distinction. These are accounting terms.

But that's how it's meant when people use it like that. They mean they want to do the work somewhere where it's (considered by the accounting department) a profit centre; not cost. That doesn't mean it could be another way for that company or that nobody should work there, much the same way as OP isn't saying nobody staff vs. line is right vs. wrong nor vice versa.
Ultimate test of a good place though if you ask when young.

I asked for my first grad role. I asked a lot of probing questions. 3 years in I was running teams and setting up operations for the business in another country for them. I even told them I’d be leaving to start my own business after this job (and did). This resonated because I was speaking to their founder at the time and knew we’d be cut from the same clothe.

Holding yourself back at a young age can just stunt your career development. Asking such questions will appeal to the right employer.

Unsurprisingly this one went from 35 to 150 staff, profitably in the 3 years I worked there. I was 22 when setting up other parts of their business. I’d started at 19.

I wouldn’t advise folks to avoid such questions just because they’re young or “need the job”. Stand out! You’re even more likely to get the job.

As noted by others here: if they react poorly to this in the interview, you already won by dodging a bullet.
You seem to be conflating your personal experience here with everything happening around you which as you rightly point out is absolutely filled with this ever moving target that is absolutely impenetrable to beginners.

The React ecosystem looks like the crypto / nft space to outsiders. Nobody seems to agree on anything, no two projects look alike, it’s just this endless loop of people reinventing the same core bits over and over again for the past ten years.

I’m happy for you that this hasn’t been you experience but don’t tell me that the React ecosystem is stable. The reputation of the React ecosystem for many years has famously been that it’s a house of cards.
It comes down to what the appraiser is really saying with their appraisal. Are they saying that in today's market this is what the house could go for or are they predicting the future value outside of a bubble

> Turfing pensioners out of their house because the land it sits on gained in value faster than their pension

This is a well-known canard. If someone can't pay their tax on a primary residence, you put a lien on the property that becomes enforceable when the ownership changes hands, whether by sale or inheritance. No one gets "thrown out" of their homes.
Maybe he was supposed to blow it on lifestyle to stay hungry and doesn’t want to own up to the FU money.
It is distributed freely, though perhaps not legally. Check out library genesis.
The fact that it goes to a company he later acquires makes it seem like an obvious move. Is it?
The transition is hard. I'm convinced it has to be both gradual and compensated.
Doordash has compensation ideas where they will top you up if your comp falls under some percentage of grant price (80-90%). Many companies are moving to this model to ensure that stock prices don't impact TC too highly.

Another way to look at it is that people were all too happy to accept the status quo until now.
There's also the fact that an escalator makes for some terrible stairs — the steps are much taller then what would be comfortable (and allowed, AFAIK) for stairs.

Why did I give the impression that I’m the “only” one? My sister is a psychiatrist who uses her computer for MS Word and Facebook. But for whatever reason you and the other people replying seem to think it’s ok to lose 10k for nothing. Would you invest in diamond mines, or milk farms, or wind energy, if you knew nothing about what you are doing, without consulting someone close to you who works with something similar? Sorry but you guys sound just like scammers who are drooling for new easy money to come into the “market”.

Was the industry really "almost entirely" autodidacts 10 years ago? Were CS graduates "nerds" in a way that autodidacts weren't?

It's still very possible to get into tech without a traditional CS education, and it's not clear why it seems hopeless to you to compete against someone with a degree -- ACAICT most interviewers don't even look at candidates' resumes.
The OP-1 has a chiclet style keyboard. It isn't velocity sensitive. It is literally doing what Ableton Live et al can do with playing QWERTY keys. Not an Ableton Live exclusive feature either, most DAWs can do it OOBE these days.

Honestly, small MIDI controller and Cubasis on a phone, and you'll do everything the OP-1 can do and much more.
I have no stake in this but, is there not a VATaaS API/library by now?

I see the VAT complications discussed all the time online and figured this would be rather centralized by now
I wonder if the DMV is a bit of a special case, not necessarily a good example of government bureaucracy. The customers are almost universally resentful, because they are paying the government money to let them drive. They're angry because it's slow, and it's slow because the process requires bringing in third-party paperwork (e.g. insurance, sales receipt, dealer paperwork, whatever) and there's a lot of opportunities to get it wrong. So it often involves more than one trip.

If I had to deal with customers at the DMV, I think I'd be grouchy too.

Another reason to try and get as much of it online as possible, which I think is most of it nowadays.
I believe if you search the title ("Ideas That Created the Future") of the book, you can find it on library genesis. If anyone asks, you didn't hear it from me.
WTF? This must be because of willful political sabotage?

The license plate should follow the car and ownership should be changed online as part of the transaction. It sounds incredibly wasteful that every time a car changes ownership the seller must hand over the plates in person to the DMV. And is there no national registry of cars or data sharing between states? Strange that a car can be registered twice.

If your drivers license is stolen you should be able to just order a new one online and have it delivered in the mail. I have been inside the building of our DMV equivalent two times. One time when I did theoretical exam to be allowed a practical driving test, and once for the driving test. I got a temporary license when I passed and the proper license in the mail the next week. This was 20 years ago.
Can I bring my own component library? And CSS variable files?
Disagree, the fact that individual politicians support certain policy does not mean that policy is partisan. Neither party pushes the issue, which is why for example lots of blue states never advance on density.

I’d say all in all the progressive left sub party could be considered pro density but doesn’t wield enough power to do anything about it except in small municipalities like Somerville MA.
No. Tesla literally has sold for years the right to a software only $10k upgrade. Who cares if that’s crazy or not they’ve done it.

And they have vertically integrated, after automakers spent decades spinning out. Much more value capture.

And they have secured better rights to raw materials (lithium).
Often the company is the product. The customer is big tech companies acquiring small startup companies. The company itself in that scenario might just be some smart people working on an idea but no idea how it will make money.
It wouldn't need to if we just enforced the existing laws at the border.
Those other endeavors scale significantly more efficiently and are a necessity.

Gold is a requirement for industrial purposes, for jewellry, for chemical processes for medication.

Visa/Mastercard perform many hundred of thousand transactions per second.

BTC is limited to 350k per day, and consumes the equivalent CO2 impact as Austria. It can't and won't ever scale, which leaves it open to market manipulation and centralization as transactions move off-chain.

It's not a small amount of energy wasted, and there are significantly more valuable uses for that energy, such as aluminum production or water desalination.
Ty! Yeah we're an open company (open source, open roadmap, open salaries) and it has worked great.

Now this is something I haven't heard before from a vegan. Does this mean that in principle, you'd have no problems eating an animal you are 100% sure died in a dignified, painless way because you killed it that way?
