>>What sort of changes can be made to change people's viewpoint on hard work as a virtue?

It goes beyond that. Work is defined as some thing you do to get other stuff in return. Once that is defined, we are always going to have people who want more things than others. So you will always have people do more work.

Even at a basic income you will always have people complain that they are unable to afford things rich people can. And that will be the new definition of inequality.
Not knowing what the IC is, one thought is that the blu-tac could be blocking light, or providing a wee bit of extra capacitance to tame a wicked electrical signal.
Yeah, this is mainly because Apple's OpenGL drivers are terrible. They're eternally behind the GPU vendor drivers in OpenGL version/feature availability and have worse performance. I'm crossing my fingers that in a few years the clean slate of glNext will give Apple a chance to fix this, but not counting on it...
Sunday was just an example. Nobody is stopped from working if they're movitated to do so, but we generally discourage each other from working overtime unnecessarily. I personally work 32-hour weeks regularly and still contribute meaningfully.

And then, I go backpacking or bike-riding or something that tends to be demanding physically and relaxing mentally—I find it helps me keep a healthy balance. I know there are plenty of people that don't crave that reprieve though, and that's totally okay as well.

There's weekends where I'm working on a particularly interesting problem where I'll work through the weekend because I want to. The big difference is the extrinsic pressure is missing. Nobody has to.
I can't imagine that a unified Conservative and Labour party in the UK would do anything but utterly disgust their respective voters, and ensure a UKIP victory.

If you hadn't seen it already, the TokuMX team is putting together a storage engine module designed to work with vanilla MongoDB's new pluggable storage system. This blog post[1] compares TokuMX to vanilla Mongo running their (experimental) engine. The short version is: TokuMX made some changes outside the scope of the pluggable storage system that give it the edge in some circumstances. An interesting read.

I would like to take this moment to encourage HN readers to consult Wikipedia in order to determine the difference between tax evasion and tax avoidance, and adjust their returns accordingly.

Remember: tax evasion is illegal. Tax avoidance is discouraged.
I wonder if they're getting what they think they're getting out of that deal. Servers are already getting 10-20% of the top, while the restaurant itself is probably only making 2-3% after expenses. Right now everyone tips their server because that's where their wage comes from. If that started to not be the case, perhaps restaurateurs could keep more of the money that's coming in the door. Food for thought.
Alright I put the Pi 2 in a cardboard box and held the flash at the same spot (but the box obscures the light). It keeps running just fine and doesn't have the nasty spike. Definitely is something light related.
I think most people from those companies (I can't speak about Wall St) would make more money in other companies. The employers those companies usually hire are exceptionally good at what they do, but simply the reputation of those companies is enough to make a lot of really good people want to apply and accept an offer, ever if they could get a more senior position and more money elsewhere.
I'm not disagreeing but I'd like to mention that two of my cats absolutely love my plastic laundry baskets.
The [Ship of Theseus] is an ancient paradox. Compressing the time scale to a single instant just shows the flexibility of language and the overlap of our concepts. My clothes dryer is reliable in the sense that I can disassemble it and replace the heat coils and bearings and belts. When repairs are finished it is the same clothes dryer. If I had purchased a new white good unit, it would be a different dryer and if it could not be repaired it would be less reliable than which could.

Because by reliability we imply use. A Ferrari that is not driven does not thereby become reliable. It becomes a hanger queen.

UKIP are unlikely to win seats in London, Scotland, Wales or NI, which are 190 out of 650 seats. That means they'd have to win >71% of the remaining English seats for an outright majority.
I have been saying all along that it is electromagnetic waves in the visible or near visible spectrum causing the effect, otherwise the bluetack would not work.

As to saying that radio is light, if calculating the propagation speed of a radio wave, you don't talk about its speed of radio, you talk about its speed of light. In many technical contexts, light is one of the default terms.

Also, there would be no need for the term 'visible light' if light could not be used to describe electromagnetic radiation outside the visible spectrum. Infra-red and ultra-violet are commonly thought of as light and you can even create lensing optics for radio waves and for x-rays.

I believe they're similar to uninterned symbols in Lisp, i.e. what you get in Common Lisp from make-symbol (or gensym). The main intended use-case seems to be to get "private" property names, by conjuring up a fresh name-like thing is not equal to any other name-like thing, and not findable/enumerable in the usual way either. You can then monkey-patch that into a class or do whatever other nefarious thing you were planning.

I agree it's a somewhat confusing name, since interned symbols are the more familiar kind of symbol in other languages, especially in the modern era (older Lisps made more extensive use of uninterned symbols).
Although I would agree that services such as EC2 are not cost effectively for 1:1, this argument is somewhat invalidated when you consider $5 instances from DockerOcean. $100/month for 20 concurrent VMs is enough to replicate even the most complex of deployments. But if you're running on a shoestring, in which case it's probably not production critical, then sure containerisation might be useful too.

Also remember that Docker is not a container deployment system, and afaik, they don't advertise themselves as such (though they also don't make much effort to explain this explicitly either)
I always pitch universal wage and refusal of work to most people with whom I have meaningful conversations. By their reaction I'm certain that these ideas will be unpopular for the rest of our lifetime.

The best you can do is to keep preaching them if you believe in them. If the other person is a thinker, most people don't want to be thinkers, you might try to pitch them post-scarcity economics or explain that historically people never worked as much as they do nowadays. Also explain that most human progress came from 'play time' not 'work time'.

You won't change the world, just accept that, the world does not want to be changed. Most people invest a lot of effort in complying with the status quo. It takes generations to change this kind of social conventions.

Also,

"Unpopular ideas can be silenced, and inconvenient facts kept dark, without the need for any official ban ... At any given moment there is an orthodoxy, a body of ideas which it is assumed that all right-thinking people will accept without question... Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing, either in the popular press or in the highbrow periodicals ... If liberty means anything at all it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."

Ask HN: How can I find someone to effectively market my mobile game?
Our team has about 5000 hours into a mobile game (its been a side project for about two years). I truly believe it is an original and high quality game with hours of fun gameplay but I am scared crapless that it will fade into oblivion shortly after releasing it. Is there anyone you can recommend to help us market it right and make the biggest splash possible when we go to market? We have a team of amazing artists and developers but none of us have the first clue about marketing... I've attempted on past efforts but it seems like a black hole and its very discouraging and hard to stick with. Where would our money be best spent? I'd rather hire someone full time to do social marketing and whatever else they do, than drop a bunch of money into mobile Ads. But I'm open to just about anything that is effective. From what I understand, the games category of the App Store is an incredibly difficult one to break into. Any thoughts would be very appreciated.

No, sorry; I stopped using iMessage because it wasn't worthwhile to integrate with a system that didn't approve of my use. But when you get cut off, there's no explicit indication, the messages are just not delivered, I think I stopped getting indications that people were on iMessage (the green? bubbles) as well.
This project you also might find interesting: http://www.pachyderm.io/
I'd say using iMessage over ssh. What makes your question more valid than 'why make this'?
I came across a few of the issues mentioned in that article while using docker in the last 4 months but I have to say I will never look back.

What I like the most personally is how easy it is to install and experiment with 3d party tools. You want an elastic search stack? In one command you have a webserver hosting Kibana with Elastic Search and Logstash properly configured on your local. Jenkins, Elastic Search, Redis, Postgres, etc: they all have their dockerfiles and can be installed as one liners. Removing them is equally as easy.

Oh and I don't know why it is written that running a Docker registry is "extremely complex". Just like any Dockerized app it is a one-liner.

This new ease-of-install just by itself is worth of my gratitude to the guys that build it.

There's actually a very good argument in favor of BI that is compatible with (and even supported by) the "hard work as a virtue" philosophy.

Supply and Demand.

Making food/shelter/etc contingent upon working forces everybody to work, fixing the supply of labor. The relative demand for labor decreases over time due to automation. If we stay the course, capitalism will desperately try to fix the supply/demand imbalance by penalizing all workers, hardworking and lazy alike, for supplying a service not in demand. Wages will decrease until the supply of labor is reduced by any means necessary (i.e. some will leave the workforce and resort to resort to begging, bumming off of neighbors, crime).

Rather than artificially fixing the supply of labor at an arbitrary level and penalizing people for their honest work until some give up, it's better to "buy out" the laziest among us. Sure they won't be contributing to society, but at least they won't prevent others from receiving fair compensation which is exactly what happens in the otherwise inevitable race to the bottom.
To me it's a red flag. First because there are obviously one or more full time positions that aren't filled; second because it is sacrificing a week's worth of workday productivity on the primary task for the short staffing and this makes problems more likely down the road; third because it creates chaos in people's personal relationships and family lives, and finally because they would put a new person lacking long familiarity with the system on pager duty from day one.

My spouse worked jobs with on call for many years. Though not in tech the disruption came from being on call not the nature of the work.

I'll add that the reason it gets rotated could be either it pays so well that it's only fair or it sucks so much it's only fair.

Good luck.
if a person doesn't work and isn't ok with dying from starvation, then he necessarily becomes dependent on other people. i think it's pretty reasonable to expect people to work for their necessities. "hard work" is another matter.
Can you show me how you setup Kibana with ES & Logstash? I've tried setting them up separetely before but it got too convuluted for me. With Docker, I might actually get it going finally. I administer a few servers and checking logs has always been an issue for me. Usually, I end up doing it after the fact because I wasn't warned of issues.
Hi, you should have a look elsewhere in these comments where a HN user has reproduced it with his camera flash, but used a piece of cardboard to block the light and the Pi behaved normally.

Cardboard (and I'll wager the blue tack also) has negligible EM shielding effect, so I'd say that's pretty conclusive that it's a photoelectric problem.
It's interesting this was not caught before..

You just power through. I worked as a management consultant a while back and we had record hours for accounting purposes although i was on a salary. One week i worked 106 hrs. That included 20 hours on the weekend and one day where i clocked 20 hours.

Needless to say i don't work there anymore.
Configuration Management - e.g. Puppet, Saltstack, Ansible, Chef; or if you're old school cfengine.

They are good at bringing systems to a known state; but not as good for cleaning systems up.

From the original thread it does appear to be a photoelectric effect, since blocking a specific chip on the board causes it to survive the flash.
> You're not just an hourly assembly line worker, you're part of the team, an insider, and remember, "We're all in this together."

Good luck selling that line when it becomes more profitable to outsource or eliminate your position.
Yes, but if you were tasked with designing the epoxy that was going to be used in every IC everywhere, I would hope that you would go through the extra effort of adding dyes that were specifically opaque to UV and IR.
Things not to Love About Reddit's First Transparency Report:

Condé Nast are very much in bed with various agencies and Reddit is currently employing a blacklist in conjunction with Imgur.

It has been comprehensively fish-hooked and tracked - not only is Reddit 'shaping the narrative' when allowing 3rd party reputation management agencies full access to its DB, but they're also employing aggressive MAC / IP traces of their own that will automatically [remove] text from blacklisted MAC / IPs when/if they post. Bonus round: Imgur is also index linked to this (you'll get "failed to upload" errors).

Note: these MAC / IPs are independent of Reddit's own moderation policy, and it looks [strong] like they're supplied by .gov or .com 3rd party lists. i.e. You can be blacklisted from Reddit without ever posting on it. (The usual suspects: Environmental groups, social justice, Af.Am. groups - anything but white power groups, which help "shape the opposition" stance).

Reddit, at this point, is merely a tool of. Well.

Let's just say: I'd have more faith in them if the people running the hounds had any clue about the hare, but they don't.

Be Seeing You.

p.s.

GG / Ghazi rubbish - same people are running it at the top, they're trying to shape something they don't understand.

I should point out that sales and marketing, while closely related, are two different things.
The distinction is:

If you take a printer, and replace part A, and a time later replace part B, and a time later replace part A again, you've thrown out three parts - 2 of A and 1 of B.

If you take a printer, and A is broken so you replace the printer, and a time later A is broken again, so you replace the printer again, you've thrown out two entire printers.

These are not the same.
I think this would be extremely difficult to compute, because a server working in a fancy restaurant makes the same base pay as one working in a chain restaurant, but the tips will be orders of magnitude different.

This is a really good article. I've only had time to skim so far, but it's impressive.

I happen to be a physicist too, and my stance on climate change is identical to yours. I don't think we'll ever have a climate model with detailed predictive ability: the system is too complex and the initial conditions too uncertain. But we really need to stop changing the composition of the atmosphere; mainly, we need to move quickly away from burning coal, for several reasons. I agree that we should do this through incentives and development of alternatives, not through a "revolutionary" approach.

It was refreshing to read something rational about climate. Everything I've seen lately (although this isn't my field) is either "we can't predict climate so we should stop worrying and just keep burning coal" or "it's already too late because the models are true and we have to shut everything down now or we're all going to die."

On your orbital simulations: you seem to be using physical units. Often people avoid some of the very big or small numbers by using, say, the Earth-Sun distance as the unit of length or the Earth mass as the mass unit. Do you just prefer physical units, or are you doing this and I missed it? Either way, very interesting demonstration of the effect of the Moon on the Earth orbit - would not have guessed this result.

P.S.: Go gnuplot!
I was let go from my last position. Work ran out. Best thing to happen ever. I was under far too much stress in that role and ninety percent of it was due to company mismanagement; My time in the military ran smoother then what they had going on.

Since becoming unemployed, I've started working out more by running around 10 miles a week, giving private Brazilian jiu-jitsu lessons, and even have had the opportunity to assist instruct defensive tactics with the local Police Academy. I'm also eating better, saving a ton of money on gas and on not eating out (I had a literal six charges on my debit card for January, including gas!), and just feel 1000x better.

Now I'm just looking for the next opportunity, sadly it looks like I have no where to go in the technology sector in my area (SW Virginia) and may be moving into a Correctional Officer position with the Regional Jail because plainly, I need a paycheck.
I generally agree. If a job is so close to being marginalized that it would be eliminated by an increase in the minimum, then the cost of that automation is already pretty close to replacing that job, anyway.

My pie-in-the-sky ideal would be if Corporate America (tm) decided that getting enough out of employees was better in the long run than getting the most out of them to make this quarter.
I think that HN traffic killed it. Kind of ironic, considering the subject of the site.

If your argument is that it is too easy to share then you are going to have a hard time winning over users.

But honestly how hard do you think it is to integrate secure builds into a docker system? I would just stand up a private docker repository and lock the build system to that, problem solved. Or docker could roll out an update to leverage the existing namespaces and combine that with a user controlled whitelist of public key & namespace pairs. The reason docker has enjoyed this much success is because they understand sharing is #1.
Um, what about Solyndra?

If black boxes are dangerous then you really should be writing machine code. Which is absurd of course, and demonstrates that black boxes are a very good thing.

I wonder if the consul or etcd teams will consider adding this into their respective raft implementations (assuming it does actually improve things as the paper alludes to).
That is mostly because the class workload requirements are higher. In terms of math, csc, and seng courses you would be taking, it's fairly similar. It's because you have to take the general engineering core where you learn the start of mechanical, electrical and other engineering specialities and you take ~5 high workload classes per semester than ~4 to make up for it.

So the amount of stuff you study is about is more broad because you are studying other somewhat unrelated topics.

It's more like working 60hrs/wk vs 40hrs/wk as a nurse. Your still just being a nurse.
