That attitude is just as bad as climate change denialism. The AP-NORC poll I cited didn't survey "corporations, billionaires, and their lobbyists," it surveyed regular people. The same people who throw out the party in power when gas goes above $4/gallon. People like my immigrant family members, who all bought a McMansion in the suburbs and an SUV soon as they achieved economic success. If folks on the left can't confront the reality that they need to persuade my mom to care about climate change before they even get to "billionaires," then they deserve the 4C temperature rise that's coming.
This seems impossible to fix in a divisional org structure, where each division owns their P&L. If I'm in division A, and division B wants something from us that won't make a difference on my P&L (or will just add costs [headcount]), why would I be incentivized to help? If they pay for it though, that's a fee for service. Seems fine. It's all internal accounting anyway, so it's mostly fake.

In the US, there's a notion of "fair use": quoting small passages with attribution for the purposes of criticism does not require reproduction of the relevant Creative Commons license. Most of the other former British colonies have the concept of "fair dealing", which is similar.

> Markets thrive on differences of opinion: every seller needs a buyer and every buyer needs a seller. Funds that offer investors a chance to express those opinions are not necessarily a bad thing. But American capitalism has been built on the pursuit of profit at all costs. In recent decades, investors have flocked to index funds, which track the market, offering diversification and low fees. To the extent that partisan investors are trying to reshape the economy to align with their values, rather than betting on beliefs about the economy, they are going to pay for it.

A good summary, and explanation for why not to pay attention to this, except to note in passing another example of irrational, showy, self-defeating theatrics.
Worked at a large global financial company 10 years ago in tech. It was well known that the bonus pool was finite per division, but it was also allocated on ratios based on performance reviews and retention. Everyone knew the more people, the smaller the pool -- but then again, tech was a "cost center" so it wasn't like adding technology people (with the exception of quants) earn the bank more money.

I suspect if you incentivized managers to keep their teams small, through a bonus pool, it would definitely result in smaller teams, but also with the danger of overworked ones. That seems self-fulfilling though, if you're overworked but you know there's a reward with it.

That all being said, most places don't have bonus pools so it's a mute point.

The point is that you do need explicit integration and cooperation. And you often have way more than 4-8 people working on one of these contracts to even define the terms.

And again, most real companies own most of their supply chain, they don't depend on a hundred different suppliers at every level like you seem to be suggesting. And they do this because it's FAR more efficient to have a large monolithic team build something together than to rely on dozens of small teams competing in a market to build the same thing.

This is just insultingly dishonest the reality is that Infected, has infected wellbeing way way before politics infected investing.

Larry Fink and his sickly ilk have for too long affected working people.

I am pretty sure that the people he priced out of the housing market feel way different from the way the economist feels about this.

Even non essential things like videogames have seen themselves affected by this dishonest kind of investing. Backlash was just to be expected is insane that they want people to keep silent while everything they love is destroyed by New York financiers.

I'm not sure why you think a single sentence at the top is better than a link to website that documents it, nor why you think it's the job of the source repo to explain what it is instead of how to build it. Sure, in some cases you might want that, but not every source repo is meant to be he onboarding location for people, where they learn what something is and what it's for.

It's sort of like expecting assembly instructions to be full of marketing copy about why you want to use the product and why it was made. Presumably, when you're looking at the instruction manual, you're already past that point. Just because someone did the equivalent of handing you an instruction manual does not mean that instruction manual has a major shortcoming by not explaining all the wonderful ways the product it builds can help you. You were given the wrong material without context.
The OP mentioned reducing the rating due to late delivery. I don't think that can count as "abusing the delivery people". It's one of the things that as a customer I'd hope would be reflected in the ratings.

But again, this sort of thing is a great example of how ratings don't actually help anybody. Gaming the rating just to be nice to the service providers makes the ratings worthless to the customers.
By "stopping" do you mean reversing immigration? If so, then yes that could "stop" housing construction. Reducing net immigration by any amount wouldn't stop house building as those workers are already UK residents.
Yes and to be clear the creator gets the revenue, not this website: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/132596?hl=en-do-i-...

> Only YouTube and the video owner will earn revenue from ads on embedded videos. The owner of the site where the video is embedded will not earn a share.

Furthermore, the YouTube creator can choose to not let their video be embedded if they wanted that.

Do you have a problem with every news website that has a video at the top, then an article describing what happens in the video? How would that violate the licensing? It's unrelated to licensing - they're using the official YouTube embed. YouTube manages the copyright of the embedded content and can even control whether or not the video can be viewed in your country, etc. based on such restrictions.

> look at how responsive the original poster of this thread was to most comments but they ignore this request

Irrelevant, but I think because it's obvious you're misunderstanding copyright, or because you wrote such a big paragraph with many separate points being made that it's a lot of work to reply to. The copyright in his footer is for his IP, it of course would not apply to the content inside a YouTube embed. And it's not IP theft to summarize a video in what is essentially a blog post.

hexagonal architecture gives you the direction of the "waist", not its thickness.

You could have a really skinny interface (one method call only):

process(data);

interface IDatabase {
loadOneDatabaseRow(id);
}

class PostgresDb implements IDatabase {
loadOneDatabaseRow(id) {...}

But this violates ports and adapters because the logic is on the outside and the database is on the inside.

Btw, if you insist on a flat statement from Dennett that consciousness exists, try this article:

https://tufts.app.box.com/s/vvlgzbozt821qe9s3l3o8yxxzbr447kv

"I don’t deny the existence of consciousness; of course, consciousness exists; it just isn’t what most people think it is, as I have said many times. I do grant that Strawson expresses quite vividly a widespread conviction about what consciousness is. Might people—and Strawson, in particular—be wrong about this? That is the issue."
My experience is that it isn't about not caring.

It is that people who have very little (or come from very little) care about different things, like putting food on the table, today. It is survival instinct only.

Quality of education goes a long way too. Do they teach sustainability in schools there? Even if they did, how many generations of kids do we have to go through before they teach these things to their kids?

There is no concept of a week or a month or 10 years from now. When you're lacking that, you have no care for the future or how your actions today, will affect things down the road.

It really was eye opening taking myself out of my nurture and actually living in a place like SE Asia.

What's how it works at Walmart if you have a Walmart+ subscription.

I scan things with my phone as I put them into my cart. As I approach the self-checkout area I press "checkout" in the app, and it tells me how many items it thinks I have and I tell it that is right.

At the self-checkout terminals on the home screen there is a QR code. I scan that from the Walmart app, tell it how many store-provided bags I'm using, and click the "pay" button. A second or two later it thanks me on the screen, the green "this terminal is available light" above the terminal comes on, and a receipt appears on my phone.

I push my cart out to my car, holding up the phone so the person at the Walmart exit can see the receipt. At my car I unload the cart into my bags.

If it is cold or rainy out so I don't want to be standing behind my car unloading my shopping cart I'll bring my bags into the store and load them as I shop.

The only real annoyance was weighed produce, but they recently fixed that. The way it had worked was when scanning the item in the app it would tell you it needed to be weighed and that would done at checkout. At checkout it would go through the items that needed weighing and ask you to put them on the scale. Then it would update your cart with the calculated prices for those items and you could continue checkout.

The problems were that (1) if you put an item on the scale too early it could get confused, and (2) the communications between the scale, terminal, back end, and phone was sometimes flakey. The result was that sometimes checkout would hang at the weighing and an associate would have to come and reset things or transfer your cart to a human operated register and complete checkout there.

It was annoying enough that I'd sometimes not scan the items that would need weighing from the app, and then when I got to the self-checkout terminal I'd first scan (with the terminal's scanner, not the app) and weigh the items that need them, pay with my physical credit card, and then do another checkout for the app scanned items.

A month or so ago they put in new digital scales in the produce section. Now if I add an item that will need weighing from the app it tells me it will need weighing and tells me I can do it at one of the scales or at checkout. The scales in the produce section give the weight in both human friendly form and as a QR code. From the app I pick an item that needs weighing and point the phone at that QR code, and the app updates the item with the weight and price.

I think this is fine and ultimately a good thing. How many times have people proposed voting with your wallet where in practice there's very little ability to do so along the axis that people care about. If investments start to fracture along various issues then as a company looking for the highest stock price and the largest pool of money they're incentivized to do things in line with those issues — be it supporting coal plants, abortion rights, or unions.

My argument is that there is no 1:1 mapping: for instance, "for (i=0, j=10; s[i]; t[j--] = s[i++])" has no direct correspondence with sigma notation. Does it? I don't believe so. This code also has no direct correspondence to Pascal's FOR or FORTRAN's DO, or ALGOL's FOR-STEP loops. Hence, C's for loop has no 1:1 mapping to sigma notation.

Of course, I can be mistaken and either there actually is a 1:1 mapping, or you meant by "1:1 mapping" something quite different from what I mean.

> symmetric coroutines are the original style

This isn't quite correct, but it's close. The original style were co-routines, as distinguished from subroutines, this was when programming was still heavily goto-oriented, these were little more than patterns used to structure go-to.

Simula, if I recall correctly, was the first high-level language to have coroutines, and they were basically asymmetric. I say basically because there was a mechanism for a coroutine to replace itself with another coroutine, but it wasn't a general transfer mechanism. Not unlike a delimited continuation in fact.

Good summary of how it all works however! I believe this is a typo:

> In a stackless setting (such as Lua)

Since Lua is stackful, and you're contrasting it with stackless generators.

So? Lack of evidence is not proof positive of the contrary position. Even if you accept that there is no evidence, which is doubtful in itself since the fact that only humans seem to be able to think the way humans think could be considered evidence.

But I didn't disagree that ideas are not made of atoms. What I disagreed with is that propositions only exist insofar as they are conceived.

>(You're in good company. Plato got this wrong too, and he was no dummy. But he didn't have Alan Turing's shoulders to stand on.)

I really don't understand what the great benefit here is over an existing solution like RSS. It also feels like the announcement undermines itself.

Basically, long-form content should be presented in a way that makes it great to read – but thankfully now people can also read it on PeerTube too? Were people on PeerTube really hankering for Ghost blog posts that much?

If people wanted blog posts on Mastodon, couldn't you just add RSS feed supports to Mastodon?

Why would you have to learn emacs? You can largely batch compile and run lisp code same as any other language, if that is what you want to do. In many ways, the workflow can be very similar to python, if you don't want to get too advanced in the repl. And, to stress, you don't have to get too advanced to get going.
I'm calling for a moratorium on the river barricades until we can determine that it's not damaging to the environment. They were so occupied with whether they could they didn't stop to ask if they should. This is why they need to teach ethics in school next to engineering.

Messing with fragile systems like this is dangerous. Many studies show that blocking river flow causes the extinction of species. Until we can be sure that this is safe, we shouldn't do it.

We should first study it over a reasonable period of time (say 20 years) before doing anything like this. Humans think they can just modify the environment without consequences. That is the root of the issue. We need real change.
