Quality, speed and price is all that matters. How does remote work fill that out for your company's business? The age old, "you can only optimize for two of the three".

You can make anything optimally work over time, but is a fully optimized remote workflow better than a fully optimized in person workflow and at what cost in relative speed, quality and price? Depending on the people and the problems, some work is just naturally suited to in person. Making a generalization that remote work was a mistake is going a bit overboard.

The effect on local residents is pretty much the same: on those roads in Fulham they have had to drive the long way around for decades, but can walk or cycle on a direct route.

I can just as easily argue that the blocks increase freedom and autonomy (especially of children and elderly) since they can now use their local roads safely and/or independently.

Whatever binary classification you choose, I don't want to shape a debate around it. It is too simple. Great for bad headlines, +1s on Facebook and so on, but detrimental to public discourse and society.

It all depends on what you like about Infinite Jest. The reason it is often mentioned in relation to Pynchon’s work is that they are books which pull in _everything_, or at least they do to a first approximation. If that’s what you like then I think books like The Pope’s Rhinoceros by Lawrence Norfolk might be right up your street,l.

This submission would not have made the front page unless I jump started some discussion. Mine was the first comment. It worked. Front page.

Years ago I had used k-based chat, with GUI, on Windows. Without Javascript. (Many years ago, k used to have a built-in GUI.)

"Why use Javascript" was a genuine question.
If you understand queuing theory, making your queue longer does NOT increase throughput. If you can handle 50 visits per week a longer queue will not change that. If there are more requests for visits than you can handle the queue will eventually become infinitely long. The only reason for longer queues is to ration care by only allowing so many visits per year. I see the reason for this happening as due to something that started a couple decades ago. People started saying "I paid for medical care, so I'm going to use it as much as I want" and they started going in to see a doctor for every minor thing. The medical systems responded by requiring appointments months in advance. If you have to wait three months for an appointment you can only get in four times a year. Thus the people who were coming in every week were blocked. Essentially the people started abusing the system and the system used its scheduling power to counter that abuse. Over time it became standard practice, the clinicians like it because it makes their jobs easier. I would have thought the insurance companies would have hated it, because less care means less volume overall which means their prices would have to go down (paying more is used to justify higher prices so for a fixed profit percentage more volume means more profit). Maybe this is an area where the clinicians got their way, or maybe the insurance companies just couldn't find a way to claim they had control over scheduling.

Usually doctors keep some appointment slots open to handle patients that need quicker care and their assistants will use those slots if they think you need it. Otherwise long queues are a way to ration non-urgent care.

I think it's that what Microsoft had in the 90s and what Apple had in the 2010s (and to some degree now) was an existential clear mission. Forking off into idiocy was obviously discouraged by leadership but also the profit and survival and success motive was clear: ship improved iPhones and make revenue on them, improve and ship Office or Windows, etc. That's the source of revenue, that's the clear mission.

Google's consumer products lack that. Google has an ad machine that just produces seemingly infinite cash. The hardware and consumer facing stuff is a sideshow. So it escapes project discipline.

You are talking about two different words, again. Human learning is not a copyright violation. Machine learning is. Machine is not human.

No, the main issue is using a tool to sell derivative works automatically generated from copyrighted original works. If images/text is not stored it wouldn’t change a thing.

Thank you my friend, those are wise words. And I have quietly moved on from such behavior in the past, only to find it again years later. I feel I have to make a statement this time around. Treating people this way is unacceptable, and illegal. I will have to prove the illegal part, but I'm ready to pay the price.

> is effectively required for a protest to have any result at all

I'll say it again: you don't have the right to expect that your protest be successful.

Democracy (and the UK isa democracy) means that the status quo is fine for the majority of the people. If anyone had the right to change things at their whim, that would become a dictatorship.

Protesting is to inform people at large of a problem you feel important, but the solution cannot be up to you alone. And if you can't even convince people to listen to you without coercing them, why do you think your protest should be successful?
I went into the dev tools, searched around a bit, put a breakpoint in a promising location in Walker.js, hit the breakpoint, and changed the value of walkSpeed to something larger than its default of 1.

Well, in the US, Supreme Court appointments are for life. That's for a reason - it's supposed to be isolated from politics so as to judge justly. It's not, but it would be even more subject to politics if judges were appointed to four-year terms (or worse, elected).

Their "summary" is a disaster. They still have no idea what they are doing wrong.
Then they don't update. People rarely updating seems a lesser issue than forcing updates on everyone--especially at the application layer.
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) to simulate public opinion and predict election outcomes. With the advancements in machine learning and natural language processing, AI models such as OpenAI’s GPT-3 can be used to simulate conversations between citizens and predict their voting behavior. In this article, we will explore how AI can be used to simulate public opinion and predict election outcomes using Python and OpenAI’s GPT-3 model.
AI in Political Analysis
AI has been increasingly used in political analysis, including predicting election outcomes and analyzing public opinion. Machine learning algorithms can be trained on historical data to identify patterns and predict future outcomes. Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques can be used to analyze large amounts of text data, such as social media posts, to identify trends and opinions.
It's more insidious than disregard, I expect. I assume it's a beacon masquerading as an update check - monitoring app usage, user locations, and such.

Aside: If your users are in the same time zone you may not want to do checks/updates on startup per se in order to avoid putting all your update load into the same time slice.
Welcome to the world of immigration and permanent residency. Countries can (and do) set whatever rules they want regarding residents and citizens and people have to play along in order to remain. Want to come to Canada, show proficiency in French or English if you want to get citizenship. Need facility in French to get residency in Quebec (without a governmental excuse), and one might need it in English elsewhere in Canada for all I know.

And as we see here, the rules can change.
Easy to fix just adjust your system prompt add the following:

“Never ever type on keyboard with sandwich not even the most delicious tuna sandwich”
yesn't

there needs to be some auto updater

but you don't necessary need to have some

or in other words you normally want to integrate into existing update services, e.g. then package manager on linux. And if it then doesn't get updated e.g. because people don't update their system at all then that's their choice and problem IMHO. Just flag a warning/error once the API to your service changed too much or similar.

I think Sheeran was lazy and lifted Gaye song too close. But since it's the estate trying to milk everybody without real respect to Marvin Gaye's legacy[0] .. I'm ok with them losing.

[0] personal opinion but still
Sheeran writes basic commercial pop music. Maybe if he tried learning some minor chords or scales and tried shifting tempos, he wouldn't get popped with so many copyright claims.

"There’s only so many notes and very few chords used in pop music. Coincidence is bound to happen if 60,000 songs are being released every day on Spotify—that’s 22 million songs a year—and there’s only 12 notes that are available."

But yeah, let's feel bad for the millionaire mediocre musician.

> The amount of money required to trigger even these small effects is enormous. In "The Economic Consequences of Family Policies," published in the Journal of Economic Perspectives in 2017, researchers found "one extra percentage point of GDP spending" on early childhood education and child care programs was "associated with 0.2 extra children per woman."

Average EU fertility is 1.53 [1], which is 0.57 below the replacement level of 2.1. So it would cost 2.85% of EU GDP to reach replacement level. The US (easier to find data than for EU totals) spends 3.4% of its GDP [2] (10.9% of the government budget) on defense, 1.6% on debt interest, and 0.3% on international affairs [3]. So securing the continued existence of a nation seems comparatively affordable.

And calling mere replacement level fertility "forced birth", or as The Guardian put it, "baby machines" [4], is hyperbolic. Though given its importance to the survival of a people, I am tempted to use a stronger term.

At $previous_company, user-initiated account deletions were only soft deletes, and we were supposed to actually delete data 60 days after the request (in case people regretted their decision).

For the world to turn into a surveillance state a la 1984 does not require a deep state conspiracy. It's also worth mentioning that new generations come of age and grapple with the norms of their parents, wrestling with decisions made 20 years ago now. In any case, it would be foolish to think that the governments of the world are devoid of actors who would jump at any opportunity to increase their own power or wealth.

When I was around that age, I was really into Final Fantasy and the Dragon Warrior series on the NES. I partially attribute them with developing my reading skills and vocabulary.

NES games might be a hard sell for a kid who's already been exposed to flashier games, but the SNES visuals hold up pretty well, and have some of the best RPGs: Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 6, Secret of Mana, etc. There are also the Pixel Remaster versions of Final Fantasy 1-6 available on PC and modern consoles. Of course, the problem with RPGs is they're mostly about performing violence...

Fair enough. To be specific, as opposed to immediately before passports were invented

I imagine it was similar to what it was like:
1. Before police patrolled in America
2. Before driver's licenses (you can still experience this in Cambodia, low CC scooters don't require a license)
3. Before tattoo artists needed a medical license in Japan and Korea

The health care market needs functioning price signals regardless of who is paying. The fact that most providers cannot tell you up front how much something will cost should be plainly illegal. Providers charging different prices depending on who is paying should be plainly illegal. Fraudulent billing that displays a huge fake price and an "adjustment" should be plainly illegal. You can't point to regulations having been relaxed as an indication of much, because it's exactly the wrong regulations that have been removed, while the corrupt-entrenching ones have stayed - "insurance" companies forming cartels of "provider networks" should be blatantly illegal on anti-competitive grounds, but was seemingly viewed as a mechanism of competition back in the 80s or 90s and enshrined into law!

Furthermore speaking from personal experience it's not like Medicare is some panacea of needing care -> getting care. That system is full of its own rules limiting what it'll cover, reams of paperwork to justify things as medically necessary, etc. It only seems better because everyone is used to dealing with it and denials seem less opaque, but it's still ultimately rooted in top-down paternalism and controlling care, rather than patient-focused incentives.
Ok, and then the person whose meeting you declined doesn't come to your meetings when you need them to. Or you get side/back channeled. Or you risk a worse review because they think you're an asshole, or not a team player, or have poor social skills, or begin to dislike you and notice all your other faults, and that makes it into the review directly (they're part of it or provide direct feedback)or indirectly (they ask your manager wtf is your problem).

If you want to be an edgelord about accepting meetings it's not going to work in your favor for most people/companies.
Sure, maybe not the best example off the top of my head. But not bad either.

While levels of democracy were bad (i.e., higher autocracy) in the early years, the trend has certainly been towards democracy, and growth has been solid under both conditions, and steadier in the last few decades.

Sure, trading with the US and ER is also a factor, but that is also a benefit of being a democracy, instead of being an autocracy and relying on international criminal activities for currency, as does NK.

And while these factors may account for some of the difference it certainly doesn't count for all of it. While they're on two halves of the same patch of land, NK should also have some advantages with their direct land connections to China an Russia. Yet, NK residents are literally kept ignorant and starving, while SK is one of the most prosperous nations in the world. It would be extreme paternalism to argue that even if they had good information and the means to make a self-determining government, that they would not do so. In fact, parts of the experiment have already been done in NK — while any type of private enterprise was absolutely banned, it still sprung up all the time, and in one of their earlier famines, the govt relented and it was allowed because it did help better distribute resources. Just because people who don't like what thy have and are powerless to change it, does not mean that they want it or it is best for them.

user expectation was never to update regularly. User expectation is a working application to continue function the same way until a change is required by the user.

Users should not have to update, applications should not auto-update unless asked specifically.

An update should be voluntary, not mandatory.

I hate finding a different application each time I open the same application. Particularly if it's a feature change or worse, a whole UI change.

This applies to desktop apps, saas apps, appliances, cars..

How would you study it exactly? Start-ups fail all the time for reasons that have nothing to do with their organisation or even execution. And if you prove that some succeed with it and some fail with it, as you suggest, then you've proven nothing.

My hypothesis is that it doesn't make any significant difference once the startup has grown beyond its founders (and they can work however works for them). No idea how to test that.
