That is the pure capitalist solution. Venice is a limited resource that is not being managed well at the moment. Over harvested one could say.

Adding a fee, at some point supply and demand will become balanced. The city will have the max number of tourist it can handle at the max price people are willing to pay. The resource will now be managed correctly.

If the income is absurdly high, then other areas may start expanding out into the sea to provide a similar experience. Giving tourist more options. See Islands of Dubai for example. At some point enough new tourist options are opened that Venice will need to lower fee until a new balance is reached.

Thus tourist have more options and lower prices overall. Wealth has been created.
First time I’ve heard about the 6 connection limit.

I’m not fully understanding the response - are you saying that the limit is not imposed if you use https? Or am I reading wrong?
It will be interesting to see what effect this will have on house prices. I guess closeness to cities or to highway exit points will become less relevant for those with jobs that can be done at home.

In general, those will be relatively higher paid jobs, so any effect likely will be on higher-priced houses.
The subject matter in the book is more general than focussing on a specific models; the book is about the statistical underpinnings of ML as a whole.
No, but it can pull you through where knowledge and skill might be lacking.
Uh, no. Like your about to have to endure a discussion at the Lead Developers desk no.

"Copying and pasting a few lines of code takes almost zero thought and no time"...and you're fucked. Pardon my French but it's warranted. Been there, done that, now know better.

Firstly software development is a thinky sport and the moment you're cut-n-pasting code while not thinking you're exhibiting risky behavior. Here come the bugs.

Guess what happens next: senior devs are busy, simple bugfix is assigned to junior or farmed out to contractor. They fix just one of the cut-n-pasted routines and call it a day. Then you play a few iterations of the PR to test failure game or you ship a bug. I see this all the time. I saw it yesterday. After it fails the tests enough and I get the PR I have them DRY that code up.

This is especially important if you've inherited a crappy code-base with lots of duplicate code. We have a rule that if you touch it you DRY it. Never had that rule not serve us well. Getting people outside the core team to stick to it is work, but that's a different oroblem.
I'm not saying that the data isn't valuable, but that possession of the data, valuable though it may be, is not related to the organization's hard work or innovation. For the most part, any control rights to the data likely rest or should rest with the people who provided it to the company.

Meta claiming that all of the photos on Instagram are Meta's property does not comport with current IP law or the views/opinions of most of the users on Instagram who do own the copyrights to those photos.

You really shouldn't be able to sue anyone for use or copying of data to which you do not hold copyright. The stuff on FB is licensed to FB by the people who own it (their users).
This is discussed in detail in "The Wrong Abstraction" by Sandi Metz

https://sandimetz.com/blog/2016/1/20/the-wrong-abstraction

Quote follows:

----

The strength of the reaction made me realize just how widespread and intractable the "wrong abstraction" problem is. I started asking questions and came to see the following pattern:

1. Programmer A sees duplication.

2. Programmer A extracts duplication and gives it a name.
This creates a new abstraction. It could be a new method, or perhaps even a new class.

3. Programmer A replaces the duplication with the new abstraction.
Ah, the code is perfect. Programmer A trots happily away.

4. Time passes.

5. A new requirement appears for which the current abstraction is almost perfect.

6. Programmer B gets tasked to implement this requirement.
Programmer B feels honor-bound to retain the existing abstraction, but since isn't exactly the same for every case, they alter the code to take a parameter, and then add logic to conditionally do the right thing based on the value of that parameter. What was once a universal abstraction now behaves differently for different cases.

7. Another new requirement arrives.
Programmer X.
Another additional parameter.
Another new conditional.
Loop until code becomes incomprehensible.

8. You appear in the story about here, and your life takes a dramatic turn for the worse.

Existing code exerts a powerful influence. Its very presence argues that it is both correct and necessary. We know that code represents effort expended, and we are very motivated to preserve the value of this effort. And, unfortunately, the sad truth is that the more complicated and incomprehensible the code, i.e. the deeper the investment in creating it, the more we feel pressure to retain it (the "sunk cost fallacy"). It's as if our unconscious tell us "Goodness, that's so confusing, it must have taken ages to get right. Surely it's really, really important. It would be a sin to let all that effort go to waste."

Surely your smart developers and well-connected sales guys differ in more ways than merely “connections” — in particular, the sales guy, being on the front lines of “what people want”, is surely better-positioned to understand the market he operates in and the problems its participants face, compared with your average smart developer?
Parenting is not as easy as you think and can be severely difficult for disadvantaged populations. While it is easy to blame parents, you can't always blame the parents.
Other than some json functions, PocketBase doesn't use too much SQLite specific features, but I don't plan adding support for other databases at the moment.

Please also note that PocketBase is designed to be deployed only on a single server, so it cannot scale horizontally out of the box. Supabase/Nhost are better suited for that.
I would replace “attitude” with “worldview”. I think that’s what this quote is really getting at because worldview dictates attitude.

(Please note I’m about to make some generalizations and simplify some complicated things. Please read the following in good faith, grain of salt, etc.)

Having also grown-up poor with parents who only finished high school, and one barely at that, my worldview was one of scarcity and viewing education and success with suspicion. I’ve since changed that. But you can see how that worldview would hobble someone who’s trying to create a successful business.

If someone’s worldview was that there’s always enough, and success is inevitable given enough effort, luck, and help, they would never give up. They would happily gain whatever knowledge and skills were necessary because they knew they would succeed.

Is it possible that your worldview is hobbling you? Or, success includes luck and maybe you’ve just been unlucky.

Well, there is at least one study[0] (using data from 123 countries over 25 years) which found that investment in nuclear energy tends to reduce investment in renewables, while not reducing carbon emissions as much.

More research is probably needed, but I wouldn't say we have "no evidence".

Knowledge / education can be a curse! I cannot tell you the number of people I’ve met who are insanely smart but lack the ability to just do it when it comes to starting a business.

They overthink by planning everything when in reality you need to be like a roach (keep going) with a touch of naïveté.

Nobody would be mining OldChain so it's difficulty would be irrelevantly close to zero, you'd just just drop the requirement for POW down to something effectively gone. I said it's contrived as anything, but it's all technically possible if you mess with the incentives and intentionally create really perverse systems. That's the messiest of them though, changing the transaction format, script language, issuing new coins or whatever is pretty clean in comparison.

No prob with size_t and char* I think. They'll nicely solidify to 4 bytes on 32-bit platforms. I'd need to test for maximum though in size_t .len case.

GPL : Not really. Maybe LGPL would do. I want the lib to promote open source and that's it.
I upvoted you because I appreciate the point you're trying to make. But also: if you're fighting code for an hour without reading the error message, you need to train yourself to start reading those messages right away! This is one of the first things I always work on when pair-programming with junior engineers. Test run fails in the console, they switch back to VS Code, start adding a console.log somewhere, and I say, "What did the error say?" Their debugging time drops by a lot, quickly.

But I think your example still works, because this is something you learn to do through training and experience, not something that you inherently know to do.
Who is the criminal here? Scraping is not illegal. This is a civil suit, so even if Meta wins, it's still not remotely criminal for anyone involved.

I think you can leverage your wealth of knowledge and be successful by finding a balance, most of the comments describe how in various ways.
The good life, the successful life, all require sacrifice. Think of sacrifice as the scales of your tolerance to succeed.

Find the balance. Not out there. Find it…

OK sure; but they ask for returns of stuff that's just plain dead-on-arrival, which is just as bad, if not worse.

I ordered some batteries for portable two-way radios. Some of them arrived completely dead (zero volts; high impedance at the charging terminals) and sure enough they want them back even after I indicate they're bad.
Your post equates "schooling" with "knowledge." If that's the context, then I'd take experience + attitude > knowledge every single day of the week. If "knowledge" includes schooling + work experience, then it depends. If you have a shit attitude you need to be very top tier in "knowledge" to make it worth the rest of us dealing with you. If you have a fantastic attitude you can get away with a lower level of "knowledge" as long as you show progress when trained.

That's on a PIPE, which is a small subsection of all PE buyouts. Average multiples for ALL buyouts is 12.3x in NA:

America, and, despite a slight decline, still stood at a lofty 11.9x in Europe (see Figure 14).

The skills that mark a great employee do not necessarily translate to being a great entrepreneur. Of course there are many skills can be applied to both positions but often, you'll have to develop new habits and form new neurological paths when transitioning to an entrepreneur.
I mean, I wrote about how there were lots of interesting engineering problems between where we are now and this state. It is hard and it isn't cheap yet and I did not suggest otherwise. Perhaps saying "current promised tech" was confusing - I certainly did not mean "current planned tech" and should perhaps have said "current envisaged tech".

But there is no fundamental reason that future costs of energy in a place like Australia won't be comparable to the current costs of the grid only (if all generation were free). That is effectively free compared to today's prices.

This is why this field is fascinating to me - the potential benefits of progress which is theoretically quite easy (but maybe very hard in practice) is extremely valuable. Even if you don't think this end state is likely, it could still be very compelling to be involved in trying to get there.
Issun Ryu. This is what most westerners learn when they learn "karate". Dojos are fairly common in the states. There is critical focus on mental discipline as well as, obviously, physical training. It is a closed hand style mostly, with some weapons if the dojo is equpied for it (most are).
Ask HN: Why hasn't the public key taken off as a general identity mgmt solution?
Why don't more companies take advantage of existing mechanisms for authentication via public key, e.g. using SSH as a way to interface with SaaS/web services? Some reasons that come to mind are a) most people don't know how to create and share a public key and b) there isn't very good integration between public keys and browsers, which are obviously necessary to use services that have complex GUIs. But given the benefit of not having to rely on a third party identity provider like Google, why aren't there more people focused on solving those problems?

Different state. My drivers license says City A. But my taxes go to City B, (they provide police, etc) Geographically this makes sense.

All community centers, pools, camps, etc for both cities refuse to give in-city rates. Since either my license says the wrong city, or my taxes go to the wrong city.
I've always wondered what narrative Bo is actually referring to here, I feel like the joke's maybe 25 years too late.

What's the classist big lie that kids are learning these days? I'm sure it varies around the nation, but the history I see young people learning now is generally pretty reconciliatory and balanced. Kids aren't learning "Columbus discovered America and had Thanksgiving at Plymouth Rock with the Indians" anymore, I like to think children's history education's grown some nuance since Bo went to school in the 90s.
All valid, but you forgot another big story, for another day: "medical billing". This, in my minimally-informed opinion, is the syndicate keeping the fence running. I've had dealings with 4 owners of separate small-to-moderately sized billers and their top-brass all owned > 1 multi-million dollar homes around the world. Also, their toy boxes contained millions in cars, boats & flying machines. It must be nice, but incompetence doesn't smell right.
Nuclear power promised "too cheap to meter", I'm not going to believe the same promise from renewables. Even in a low interest rate environment, capex is real and must be paid for. But yes, I have a set of solar panels, and in summer I get my already-paid-fox electricity, and the potential for this in sunny countries is huge.

Thanks - I like this point. I think it's probably a better illustration of what I'm trying to say in my third point. Devs are biased towards adapting existing shared code so we end up with shared libraries picking up little implementation details from each of their consumers and ultimately becoming very messy.
> The ban on psychic violence was not comprehensive, and included exemptions for images used in the furtherance of scientific, educational and artistic works. To survive, the advertisers had to learn to speak the language of art.

I'm impressed by the AI. It's actually what would happen if this law was introduced. There would be exceptions, and the advertisers would find ways to exploit them.
That assumes the power plant is near the people. In many places the power plants are in another state.
This is a total non-sequitur argument here. You've gone from accusing me of lack of intelligence to suffering from cognitive dissonance and confirmation bias, to Facebook's terrible security practices: simply because I'm pleased that an organization has taken action against Web scrapers for violation of Terms of Service.

Yes, I've gone on record indicating that I believe Web scraping to be generally unethical, and that I'm pleased that some action was taken against those that make it their business to do so. And that is all that I have stated in my OP. You've decided to take me on some circular mental gymnastics journey I'm still trying to wrap my head around.
Check out shuffle.dev, they have generators and components for the most popular frameworks. A great way to learn is to create the same pages with different libraries and observe the similarities and differences.

As others said, there is no “you” in the scheme. It's Facebook's data. When people access that data without paying, they are “bad guys”. When the very same people pay for it, they are “legal partners”. In both cases they can do anything with it, while Facebook can't be held responsible because of all the official agreements. So as long as there is no specifically bad publicity or money loss anything goes either way.

“You” only exist in numerous empty statements about “privacy”, “respect”, etc. If you are feeling artsy, you can make that hyped NFT thing out of those, and see whether those kilobytes of text really worth anything.
Not a huge fan of him but Brits needed him to get the toxic wart that brexit brought on itself dealt with. He did a good job with the negotiation for UK. And Covid vaccination too. Credits where it’s due.

I doubt Brits will have a better leader though. Michael Gove is a far worse candidate than BoJo. Or Sajid or Rishi even I would argue. It’s probably once of the latter twos. And their labor party is just as bad with messaging. There is an epidemic of leadership crisis facing Europe (or the whole Western Hemisphere) and this is all in the face of the growing threat of WWIII. Not good.
I know this isn't probably the best approach in general, but it feels like a decent compromise for my use case:

I try to use medium sized services that are based in other countries. I figure if their government has insisted on backdoors it is less directly impactful than if my government does.

I don't really have anything to hide anyway so if my assumptions/approach is wrong then worst case they find out about the concert I'm talking about going to. I grew up thinking encryption and technology were going to free us though, and have found reality to be quite the opposite -- so I try to cover my tracks out of spite I guess.

Facebook Beacon and others had a big outcry. They got hauled into Congress multiple times. And of course whenever they get caught, they always throw a “mea culpa” and do it all over again in a year under a different name.

Their entire business model is “Give us all your data for free.” Mark Z early on was flabbergasted himself when he realized he no longer needed to scrape sites on Harvard’s house websites and could just ask people to submit the data for each other: “They ‘trust me’, dumb fucks.”

Thank you! The whole text lacks cohesion, it talks in buzzwords. This feels like some PR stunt without target audience.
Agreed, I'm scared of working with programmers that aren't able to see this. There's no point of capturing the "base pizza" concept. Nobody is impressed here. My eyes have to flick around so much more. Additionally, the programmer is decreasing the ease with which the codebase can adapt to market demand due to their likely overconfidence in their understanding/visibility over the market the product is being built for.
