The long tail would be lucrative to middle class artists if my monthly $9.99 (minus Spotify’s profit) was divided evenly amongst the tracks I streamed last month. But that is not how it works. Instead, those artists get fractions of a penny so Spotify can do 8-10 figure business development deals with top 20 artists and their labels in order to get the blockbuster content.
The definition of 'getting rich' in this article seems rather vague. Are we talking about the average standard of living of the entire population, or the accumulation of wealth by a handful of privileged elites? A gross measure like GDP doesn't distinguish between the two situations, does it?

The general trend in poor countries with exportable raw materials over the 20th century has been this: wealthy and powerful countries make deals with small groups of elites to extract those resources and ship them to the wealthy countries industrial production sectors at relatively low prices, while propping up the local tinpot dictators with weapons and cash so they can keep control of their populations. Saudi Arabia is one example (America being the wealthy patron), Niger is one example (France's supply of uranium ore), and that's how the Soviet Union operated in the various 'stans of Central Asia as well. The poor countries may have 'become rich' but in general, their average standard of living remains extremely low relative to the industial wealthy powers.

The only way for such countries to raise their overall standard of living is to add value to their raw materials domestically by building up their manufacturing potential. For example, if they have lithium deposits, they should be building factories to convert the lithium into batteries, and then sell the batteries on the global market. Now they have an industrial center, which brings in revenue, and they have begin to have a well-paid professional sector, medical and legal experts, a higher standard of living and so on.

At least until their brilliant financial gurus realize they can increase their personal wealth 50-fold by shipping the entire industrial sector to some Third World hellhole and wrecking the whole system, like Wall Street did to the Rust Belt in the United States.

Nobody is going to write a blogpost "we use multiple repos and it's ok for us". And that is the majority of companies.

Heck, even most individual developers use multiple repos.

Monorepos are usually ok (and even talking about team/project granularity) until you outgrow it.

Buildsystems like one-repo-per-project much better than monorepos. (Shipping a fix doesn't require rebuilding "the whole world" for example)
How I’m successfully overcoming smartphone addiction
- Every time you feel the urge to check your phone, don’t do it immediately.

- Count to 10 so that your higher self is engaged. Now ask yourself “do I need this to achieve my goals?” The answer can be yes or no, of course.

- You don’t have to avoid using the phone completely. You can answer yes at times if it’s justified. Just be able to intervene between the phone and your intuitive addictive self, and make a conscious decision.
Brazil tried local protected manufacturing --Mexico tried to be the lower cost manufacturer for NorthAm and SouthAm and they had some success but ultimately were beaten by Chinese labor.

The same Jordan Peterson who took responsibility for his benzodiazepine addiction by nearly killing himself with a gimmicky treatment rather than toughing out detox? Perhaps that's an ad hominem, but I have a hard time taking him seriously, though I truly wish him well with his psychological/addiction/medical issues.

That said, what reward does Peterson say these men should get for their adoption of responsibility? Does it entitle them to any rewards?
No. Take a look at the GCC or Clang bug trackers, for example.

I don't know about fermentation in general but there are at least three kinds of lactic fermentation that I have a few years of experience with and that do not need any salt to avoid getting "rotting gunk".

One: yogurt. Yogurt is boiled milk fermented with mainly two lactic acid bacteria, Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacilus bulgaricus. During fermentation the milk is held at ~45°C (the optimal temperature for thermophilic bacteria).

Two: kefir. Kefir is fermented milk with a consistency that ranges from a loose drink to a thick yogurt, depending on how it's made. It is fermented with a rich culture of bacteria and yeasts found in "kefir grains" (in truth, an exopolysaccharide that houses the community). Kefir is fermented at room tempeatures (around 25°C).

Three: cheese. Cheesemaking begins with a fermentation step where lactobacili and lactococci are used to increase the acidity of milk to speed up its coagulation by rennet enzymes in a subsequent step. Some cheese recipes include an additional fermentation step where milk is "cooked" to a temperature favoring thermophilic bacteria. In all cases, the bacteria of the fermentation culture remain alive in the body of the cheese and impart flavors to it as it ages.

In none of those cases does fermentation without salt result in "rotting gunk". Cheese in particular can be made without any salt at all and such cheese can be preserved for at least a year in a temperature of 16-18°C, well within the range of tempetarues one can find in natural caves, cellars or mountain creameries. My reference for this is my experience with making saltless hard and soft cheeses for the last trhee years.

Obviously, if you leave yogurt, or even cheese at room temperature for a prolongued period of time, they will go off, but that's not what you're saying, correct?

Kefir, btw, can "hold" at room temperatures perhaps indefinitely. Although it does tend to go a bit stinky, probably because yeasts begin to dominate.
If someone wants to find out your identity, they're not going to turn to GPT-3, they're going to do the Google search. With that in mind, I don't see how GPT-3 turning up the same stuff that Google does when given your username is a threat to you.

If there's a prompt out there that doesn't contain your username but does spit out your full name, that's a bigger concern.

EDIT: Oh, and as far as bots go: I really can't imagine someone coding their bots to rely on GPT-3 for personal info. GPT-3 doesn't have an "I don't know" answer. In your case it might turn up something useful, but for most people it would turn up nonsense that is indistinguishable from something useful. It's far more reliable and most likely cheaper in the long run to just buy the data.
Putting aside questions of monorepos, I am always astounded by how much big companies invest in their build/change management/review systems. Shipping becomes a whole product in itself. This appears to be a serious piece of engineering, but it’s directed at Uber’s tooling, not Uber’s business problems or even Uber’s product.

I’m sure it’s fascinating for people who are into that, and I’m not saying there isn’t a substantive problem to solve here, but I’d personally never go anywhere near a problem like this. It’s too many steps removed from the value. I’d keep thinking “we are down a very deep rabbit hole. A side quest off a side quest. Should we be doing this?”

But I’ve always worked at smaller places, where things like toolchains and sales ops and marketing tech don’t take on huge lives of their own.

I don’t understand how it’s possible to have close to 10,000 services. I worked on a project with 17 and found that to be very awkward at times (local development with k8s didn’t seem to be a solved problem, and we depended heavily on complex tests and blue/green deploys to be sure changes actually worked in production). But nearly 10,000 is insane.

How do you orchestrate that? I guess this is the kind of situation where you really do need container orchestration.
Social/psychological considerations:

I cannot find the study to link but this one is pretty similar https://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/psychology-facts/how-many-f... Basically 8 is the number of really closest friends a person has.
Also we have Dunbar's number https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunbar%27s_number

So 8 and 15 sounded like the choices on spot, but I added some padding for new promising friends and "hobby friends" (the folks that are not super closer but where you have lots of activity time).

So the limit is psychological and the padding added was to not block users with analysis paralysis seeing a slot like precious.

UI considerations:

I wanted a snappy way to select your friends, they should enter in a fraction of the screen, not a long scrollable list, not a search input.

Increasing

I hope this is not needed, the closeness is by design. But I understand we are bad at deleting friends. I'll see how it goes.
>I have no idea how one could approach picking this

Not sure how well the lock is made but it may be possible to detect when pins 1 and 6 are in correct position - because the slider is "stiff against springing apart" at those pins, if you get what I mean. The key might turn a degree or so more if those pins are correct, which may be detectable.. That would be only 36 positions to check.

Likewise, pins 2 and 5 should produce slightly more resistance than pins 3 and 4, but the difference would not be quite as pronounced. But if the difference is detectable, then it could be a possible attack strategy.

It’s just a way to show that a fetus is still something. With pure materialist mindset we would say that it’s progressively closer to being a human as we get close to birth.

I find it strange that we get from zero value before birth to full human live once born and try to disregard the baby before birth.

I think we have to do a conscience examination, are we blind to something because it’s more convenient for us?

I’m not saying what they like to talk about is garbage, I’m just not interested in it. You’re the one making the value judgment. I don’t think that people who talk about football are stupid or disinteresting or lowbrow, I’m just not interested in it.

> In this case, from personally having conversations with two women who essentially said "I forgot the pill that day, but had sex anyway and got plan B in the morning".

Plan B, in this case the morning after pill, is a different beast from what we usually discuss when talking about abortion. There are no real negative consequences when taking it (even more so when compared with contraception pills) so I am not sure why you are so afraid.

IUDs are much better than pills anyway, and you can forget about them without issue. They also don’t cause hormone-related problems. If you are serious about your argument, you should advocate for this sort of device (and also abortion, because even if they are generally reliable, 0% risk does not exist).

> Also the context in this subthread is about commercial advertising and the impression of "cool", not about medical information.

I started using it about a week or two ago after someone linked a post called "Augmenting Long-Term Memory"[0] in another thread here. I've been reviewing daily and have already noticed knowledge that I was beginning to forget feeling refreshed and more solidified. For example, I used to be very familiar with the oauth2 protocol after having to implement a compliant service a couple of years ago. But I realized that knowledge was beginning to slip. After "Ankifying" some of the parts of the protocol that I thought were most useful, I have a good grasp of it again.

Since then I also started going through the ActivityPub protocol and Ankifying that, too. I'd scanned it a couple of times before and started building an implementation for fun, but I feel like Anki helped me grasp it better. I also don't have to refer back to the doc as much as I used to. Aside from the reviewing itself being useful, writing the actual cards has been very useful as well (but I kind of expected that, since writing/blogging has long been my preferred way of reinforcing new learnings).

I've Ankified different kinds of things so far, all in one deck. From details of auth flows to git commands (so I no longer have to Google each time I need to remember how to delete a remote tag or reset a git author).

Think what we’re seeing is really a market correction. Crypto took off, and everyone was investing in it, even if they didn’t know what it was. Companies like Coinbase made it very easy to do. What I think we’re seeing is all of those viral investors, so to speak, jumping ship.

It’s still worth something, so someone out there thinks it has value. If it has value, then it’s worth pursuing.

That's a great counterpoint that's been brought up many times before in this type of discussion. My response to that is this.

1) A genuine effort here to avoid this moral hazard might be to have a policy to refund all/most of the fee paid if the user was found to have done nothing wrong, as well as some transparency in the overall process (publish some sort of stats of their customer service efforts) to keep some kind of public view on the situation.

2) Even if Google does essentially "extort" some people, I think the downside of maybe having to pay a fee needlessly is worth the upside of having some actual recourse possible in the event of a real emergency. Again, businesses die and people lose their jobs when Google messes up. Having a flawed recourse would be a better state of affairs than no recourse at all.
They were talking about being scrutinized as a criminal. You seem to be talking about being tried as a criminal under the law, which is a very different thing.

People with miscarriages are already scrutinized as potential criminals.

Some examples:

* Several pharmacies in Texas refused to fill misoprostol prescriptions because they weren't sure whethet it was being prescribed for a legal abortion or an illegal one. You may think that sounds rational, but how often does a pharmacist reduse to fill, say, oxycodone, even though it is a drug that is often used illegally. How often are people who pick up oxycodone asked about what they plan do do with it? There is seems to be a different standard being applied here.

* There is at least one pharmacy in Texas that has refused to fill misoprostol for ectopic pregnancies as a matter of policy.

* Even in states where elective abortions are still legal, just go go to any planned parenthood. The protestors outside won't ask if you're there for a completion D&C before they shout "baby killer" at you.
This is a silly argument that I've only seen made recently. If I invite someone onto my airplane, am I justified in rescinding consent to them being on the plane, and chucking them out at 15000 feet? Of course not. Even in the case of never having given consent in the first place (e.g. stowaway) that would still be considered murder. To me, it all boils down to when a fetus has rights as a human, and this so called "forced" use of someone's body is a red herring.

Endgame is decentralizing the internet and perhaps non-internet protocols. Even if the probability of a decentralized social network working is small, the upside in the case it does work is so large that it's worth the bet

ie: 100% downside vs 10,000%+ upside. If only 1 out of 100 such bets works out they break even. If 2 they have a profitable fund, 3+ they have knocked it out of the park.
For a compare and contrast, look at Adam Savage's career. Mythbusters was the rare example of a niche product that managed to break through to mainstream success.

It was the exception that proves the rule. It stood out because there was very little like it.

These days you can't find anything like Mythbusters on mainstream TV. But you can find thousands of similar channels on YouTube. As consumers we're much better off today.

And as a producer, Savage's reach is far smaller than it was 10-20 years ago. Yet I bet he's making more money off Patreon and his YouTube channel than he did off Mythbusters.

The author is complaining that theatres don't play tail content any more. That's because tail content is so successful they have their own channels now, they don't depend on mainstream distribution. Nobody looking for niche content is looking in theatres, they're looking on YouTube or TikTok.
