Yeah I think that's a much friendlier term. I do think language ecosystems have a hard time, because on the one hand they should be aiming to be as useful as possible, which means doing more, on the other hand they have to acknowledge that any given user will likely not use all the language and that the rest of it may hinder them, which means doing less.

Because it is not abusing its position. Monopolies are not an inherent bad, they just tend to start abusing their position, and when they do then they get handled.

This is more common with public companies than private companies though.

Founders have their own life, honor, ethics, desires, etc. which usually help strongly keep the company on a positive track. e.g. Valve Corporation.

And you don't think the desire to get away from Elon Musk and the MAGA crowd had anything to do with it? Nothing good was ever going to come about because of Elon's stupid acquisition. That was made painfully obvious when Xitter stopped paying their bills - I guess in the hopes that creditors would be forced to arbitrate lower payments on debts owed to them (which is bullshit for a billionaire to be doing, but you don't get to be a billionaire by being nice, fully ethical, moral or legal). Then we had a demonstration of sheer stupidity Elon told advertisers to fuck off, so they did, and now he's all hurt and lawsuity.

What good do you see in that? Who wouldn't want to get away from that stupidity?
I used to pick up pocket money writing essays for dumb rich kids in college. If I cared, there’s enough of a paper trail to invalidate more than one degree, at least by the written rules. In the real world I doubt that the cheaters would face real consequences, and have concerns that I would lose my own credentials.
Right, the coffee maker company in China has some options:

* Figures out how to make it even cheaper (unlikely)
* Figure out how to avoid the tariff legally: Maybe move the manufacture or assembly to Mexico for the US market.
* Claim the product is something else, just enough to avoid the tariff(i.e. claim it's a tea maker, not a coffee maker)
* Stop selling in the US since they won't get any sales
* etc.

The middle options are the most likely: avoiding the tariff somehow. Companies do the middle two all the time to varying degrees to get around/avoid tariffs, import fees, etc, even US companies.
I would even go to say that the reason Starlink exists is to use up SpaceX excessive launch capacity.
With its idea of building assembly lines and reusable rockets, can launch more stuff than there is market for. So they create their own market. Starlink launches are almost free besides the fuel, as they have rockets lying around that are already paid for.

A state-funded competitor could come up though. China for instance may want their own satellite internet for strategic reasons, and fund that. I am sure Russia would be interested too. This in turn, will pay for development of a reusable rocket program.

Mitutoyo isn't a monopoly, not even close. Just because a company offers a product that is arguably just slightly better in one aspect than others does not make it a monopoly.

Fortunately, the OCaml compiler is very modular, and there have been efforts to make things more... reasonable.

- Reason, a different syntactic frontend for regular OCaml: https://reasonml.github.io/

I haven't looked at it, but it's purely functional (so no destructive operations such as set!). It can't be called Scheme, because it's a subset of RnRS Scheme; that's why Racket isn't called PLT-Scheme any more. I can imagine this as a teaching tool (though the FAQ says the error messages aren't good), or perhaps usable as an extension language.

I'm going to look at it as a scripting tool that compiles to C.

The internet started with decentralized protocols like NNTP, so you could just choose a different news server if the one you were using started tracking + selling your download logs.

Centralizing the serving of third party (or even first party) content is already way outside the original norms of the internet.

Heck, back in the day, HTTP caching would be enough to block tracking. (No javascript, and only the ISP sees which users pulled the document from cache.)

Absolutely, but here's the catch. You're designing the compression and decompression program based on the particular file. So the decompression program is really part of the data that's used to reconstruct the program. (For example you could replace a certain 1MB stretch of random data with a short magic word, but the decompressor would have to contain that 1MB so it knows what to insert when it sees the magic word.) That's why the original challenge measured the length of the data plus the decompressor program.

See the Fediverse for example, which prides itself on not having algorithms, and is yet the most echo-chambery and radical place I know of. People automatically filter themselves into different servers, and defederate with each other with frequency.

> That's a small example, limited to very small geography, and is really an example of power struggle than of different groups autonomously governing themselves.

Definitely a small geography, and, yes, a solution to a power struggle. I'll point out that large parts of of Europe had rather substantial wars and massacres as part of that specific power struggle, and also that this definitely is "different groups autonomously governing themselves".Landsgemeinde are generally viewed as a prototypical example of that, and there was no significant power over Glarus at that time (the Swiss confederation of that time was extremely far from anything like a central government).
I don’t care much for Musk one way or the other. What I do know is that old Twitter actively censored ideas that didn’t align with their world view and new Twitter stopped that fascistic approach. Musk fired 6,000 Twitter employees and the site not only continues to work fine but has rolled out many new features. What were those 6,000 people even doing? Just how big was the censorship team?

Well the read query has simpler syntax with MPTT but implementing the whole structure is more complicated and any re-organization like moving a folder around requires rewriting a lot of rows. Although it doesn’t apply to the Firefox use-case, I’ve never understood how this technique can be applied to anything but the most trivially sized, roughly immutable trees. What do you do in a production system when two people move two different node in the tree? It seems to need all kinds of complicated locks.
From my perspective, X experience has improved a lot since Elon's acquisition.

What actually got worse materially? I hear a lot of gesturing 'Orange man bad', 'Elon help orange man, so Elon bad' but I cannot reach any of these conclusions from first principles looking at Trump's policies while he was President... Aside from the Jan 6 incident... But I don't see consensus there between either side so I do have some doubts and questions about the true nature of that incident. The fact is, nobody on Jan 6 had guns besides police officers. How can that possibly be an insurrection? Please correct me if I'm wrong there.

> SpaceX - may or may not be profitable in the last year - it's hard to know. Until recently definitely no profitable

SpaceX is very much in the same position as early Amazon.

If they wanted to, they could be profitable today. But they are investing heavily in the future.

IMO, that's a good sign for SpaceX. Many large companies have run out of ideas of what to do with money, so they accumulate it in bank accounts, or do dividends/stock buybacks.

There's actually evidence that people who were wealthy in pre-Rennaissance Florence are still wealthy today [1].

This characterization isn't entirely unreasonable. Isn't Musk objectively the richest businessperson ever in nominal dollars? Inflation-adjusted, I think only Rockefeller or Carnegie may come close, but the variety of businesses Musk has is impressive, and it appears he is just getting started with a long way to go.

This reminds my of 'chaos engineering' and the approach that Shopify took with 'Toxiproxy.' Toxyproxy is this elegant system that provides a REST API for spawn proxy servers. The proxy instances can have 'toxics' added to them that change the connections properties. E.g. you can add latency, packet drops, even experiment with slicing up packets. It allows for something like writing deterministic tests that test whether your software works under many different network conditions. I think its honestly a really smart design.

> This is the beauty of ocaml (and strongly typed functional languages more broadly)

I don't think that's anything specific to strongly typed functional languages. In eg Rust even the standard library relies on third party crates.

Though it is still somewhat amusing to me that loops in Haskell are delivered via a third party library, if you ever actually want them. See https://hackage.haskell.org/package/monad-loops-0.4.3/docs/C...

I do agree that it's good language design, if you can deliver what would be core functionality via a library.

Whether you want to integrate that library into the standard library or not is an independent question of culture and convenience.

(Eg Python does quite well with its batteries-included approach, but if they had better dependency management, using third party libraries wouldn't be so bad. It works well in eg Rust and Haskell.)
Many people don't have any real understanding of how wealthy people have been in the past. The Walton family is a fun case. Split the fortune among the family and there are still billionaires in the mix.

Edit: should add that Elon is still valued at a good percentage of the US gdp. So, not unreasonable to say that is incomprehensible, as well. By that measure, is similar to Rockefeller, I think.

This is an area that appears to need some serious research. It seems entirely possible that "good posture" is an idea that comes from our monkey heritage where standing tall was a way to threaten other monkeys and gain status. Also standing up straight may be inherently unnatural, monkeys don't usually do it, and it might actually be the cause of lower back pain for all anyone knows. In other words, a posture fad may be the primary cause of lower back pain.

To be fair, is it better for customers to jump from sinking ship to sinking ship, or to permanently stay with a smaller, leaky boat?

Even though I don't like the term "enshittification", I do think that it is inevitable that BlueSky would need to make some unpopular changes in the future to become financially sustainable.

But is this such a bad thing? I used the Fediverse before, which is the "permanent place" that many people claim. But it had many disadvantages, from my point of view. No algorithms, no search, and I didn't like how defederation made it hard to follow anyone I liked.

I hosted a server myself, but it cost money. BlueSky doesn't, until it does. But maybe it is better to basically "exploit" BlueSky's free offers, before it changes?

TLDR: Is it better to jump from free service to free service (e.g. YouTube, Twitter, Reddit), or is it better to permanently stay on a paid or lower-resourced service (e.g. IRC, forums)? I think many people seem to prefer the free version, and jump off when it starts "sinking" (trying to become financially sustainable).

But it's far from clear that they'll even successfully launch on their debut, not to mention recover the booster.

And even when they've sorted all that out, word on the street is that the rocket was not designed to be inexpensively manufactured. It's not clear to me just now low reuse can help drive down their launch price.
