There's been at least one meta-analysis of data with the game: http://www.econ.nagoya-cu.ac.jp/~yhamagu/ultimatum.pdf It doesn't really come to anything approaching a definitive conclusion though; in general, results vary for reasons that are unclear.
Actually, the idea that Americans are very different from others is fairly old.

To wit, the variations of this quote attributed to many authors since the 19th century:

> America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilisation in between.

http://quoteinvestigator.com/2011/12/07/barbarism-decadence/

In truth, social scientists (bar the usual suspects, aka economists) have long observed that Westerners in general, and Americans in particular, think and behave quite differently from people from other cultures.

You can trace the observation, for instance, all the way back to the beginnings of sociology, psychology, social psychology and anthropology in the late 19th/early 20th -- and you could certainly trace it to colonial times if you accept vague and annecdotical observations from people living at the time as further evidence.

There's also a steady stream of comparatitive studies on the topic since the 1970s, as highlighted by another poster.

I think the difference the author fails to take into account is (a) religious beliefs, (b) purchasing power, (c) economic class.

Respectively,

(a) Religious beliefs differ between countries and if someone believes that "sharing" is better than "self-interest" that will effect the outcome of this "game." This could help to explain why this country is relatively poor.

(b) $100 in the U.S. is equivalent to significantly more in this country...

(c) If everyone is very poor and you are very poor you're in the same boat, if your neighbors would be angry that you took $100 and left them out to dry this could be pretty bad for you. Even if this is not the case, you feel bound to these people and you likely don't want to "screw them over"

It's definitely encouraging. I don't know what the current state of the art is, but one of the main conclusions of the NIST Java Grande working group back in 2000-2003ish was that lack of a complex type was one of the big things holding Java back for numerical work.

There was a wave of excitement about doing numerics in Java around 2000ish, but it seems like everyone has since moved on.
In that case, you can't use OpenSSL either because its testing clearly doesn't ensure it's secure. So, good luck with that?
It is hugely significant when doing 3D coding if you want to use the convenience of vector and matrix types (and you really do because doing operations on raw floats it not scalable and it is bug prone.)

Background: I did a lot of 3D app dev in Java in the 1998-2001 time frame and then switched over to C#. C# was a huge improvement because it had value types. When you have 5M vectors, you really do not want each to be its own allocation.
It certainly seems a little bit faster. Still a bit laggy when you double click to zoom in though (Chrome).

The previous version was dire, though I might be prepared to give this new-new version a chance.

As a radio amateur may I say... ugh. Most amateur radio licenses prohibit encrypted communications. And for good reason: the ham bands are a shared resource, they are not there for private conversations.

Here's the relevant regulation in the UK license: "11(2) The Licensee shall only address Messages to other Amateurs or to the stations of
those Amateurs and shall not encrypt these Messages for the purpose of rendering the Message unintelligible to other radio spectrum users."

The idea, in the AirChat proposal, that institutions like the FCC, OFCOM, etc. are 'evil' because they regulate spectrum is ridiculous. The only reason we can communicate successfully on radio is because someone is regulating who gets to use what and how. The AirChat proposal mentions using the Yaesu FT-897D for test transmissions. That's a ham radio operating in the specific bands licensed for hams to use. So, these guys are (a) breaking the law (which they don't care about) and (b) messing things up for other radio users.

Oh, I did not mean to imply it is not a huge factor where it matters. Probably makes a bigger difference in standard CRUD fair apps than people realize.

My assertion is simply that compared to the cost of serializing to/from database/user, it is probably not the pain point of many programmers. Hence, most programmers probably don't think about it.

Just ask a few developers about the ridiculous overhead of HashSet<Integer>. And then see how many places people still use it.

I've had the pleasure of working in such a team, but life moved on and now I feel a deep void without that environment.

Russia isn't going to be in a position to afford to launch it's own satellites for a good long while in the future, and no one not in Russia would want to help them given the way they're currently acting as a government.

Plenty more money from pretty much anywhere else in the world to be had in terms of payloads, but in a practical sense I suspect it's a lot easier to launch US-based payloads then ones from overseas - shipping sensitive satellites around the world can't exactly be easy.

Map Reduce seems very interesting, but every example I have seen explains it in terms of counting frequency of words in documents. I would love to have someone explain it with an actual business example. I can't think of many real world uses where counting the frequency of words would matter to most businesses. (besides maybe some analysis of log files)
Just to provide some counter-points and discussion:

(a) Not everyone in the US is religious; and of those that are, not all religious people think of sharing in the same way. I think it would be difficult to say religion in the US is what causes people to split more equitably. Also we do not know the beliefs of the foreign populations in the article.

(b) In both cases it was a meaningful amount of money. The article stated it was worth a few days pay in one of the countries, $100 is about 2 days pay at minimum wage in the US.

(c)I think your point here speaks to the psyche of American's that the author writes about. It would be interesting to perform the game within "only poor" sample groups and "only wealthy" sample groups inside the US.

Great idea, but it's not just evaluating your headphones, but also your DAC, amplifier (both of which are typically crap in most computers), and your own hearing limits.

[EDIT]: Headphone tone and response also changes over time - what sounds ideal at 0 hours will sound very different after 100 hours of break-in and use.

Would help if there was a note about this on the site, and recommendations for basic steps you can take to correct for these.

I'm spoiled - headphone.com is based out of my hometown, so I can listen to any headphones I want on their expensive equipment and find what really works the best.
We use JDBI @Truecaller together with Metrics library. Not only it is clean and tidy, it also gives you immediate profiling around your database calls. This is priceless in a big service oriented environment. With it, you can exactly see the rate of happening (mean/last 1/5/15 minutes average) and latency (mean/avg/std-dev/75/95/98/99/99,9percentiles) for each database query. I wouldn't want to go back to manual logging and optimization hell. JDBI+Metrics opens a totally new dimension to your monitoring/profiling/optimization!
I have no problem with the question "Have they considered purchasing power". I could also come up with a dozen possible issues they might not have taken into consideration. But I would never argue that they havent considered them before I actually checked. And even though it seems reasonable to say

"The relative purchasing power of the money in the test is significant within cultures, let alone across cultures."

I am not convinced that is correct. A quote from the paper describing the study [1] suggest that the amount of money is not crucial

"Indeed, in the UG, raising the stakes to quite high levels (e.g., three months’ income) does not substantially alter the basic results. In fact, at high stakes, proposers tend to offer a little more, and responders remain willing to reject offers that represent small fractions of the pie (e.g., 20%) even when the pie is large (e.g., $400 in the United States). Similarly, the results do not appear to be due to a lack of familiarity with the experimental context. Subjects often do not change their behavior in any systematic way when they participate in several replications of the identical experiment."

The point of the article is that it is the norm to conduct studies where participants are selected from the same non-representative sub-population, and that this methodology is heavily biased. Rejecting this idea, because you find a possible issue with one of the many studies it is based on, seems like a really bad idea.

Did you expand the tree structure?
On the upside it uses just JavaScript which makes it open to unskilled script coders.
Right, I was assuming x86 (since that's what Linus was describing). Indeed it is true a lot of older RISCs had MMUs that need a lot of "hand-holding" in software. I think it's fortunate that x86 didn't go this route, as evidenced by the increasing cost of context switches, since that basically requires flushing the pipeline and switching to a completely different instruction stream, while an automatic TLB, like a cache, doesn't interfere when it misses -- an OoO/superscalar design can continue to execute around it, if there are other instructions that don't depend on the miss.

A software-managed TLB involves switching contexts and executing instructions in a TLB miss handler (the fetching of which could cause cache misses too), then switching back to the instruction that was interrupted. Compare that to just internally dispatching a memory read or two more, and you'll probably see why soft TLBs seem to have fallen out of favour; even if context switches could be done with no overhead, that extra cost of fetching, decoding, and executing instructions can't be recovered. (As that old saying goes, "The fastest way to do something is to not do it at all.")

Looking a bit more into it, MIPS is the most widely-used CPU that still has a "soft TLB". The other popular RISC, ARM, is automatic like x86.
