Perhaps my needs are just different from yours. What I did say was "I have never encountered a package not available that I needed". That is not contradicted by your example. Your needs are different, that's cool. What isn't cool is claiming that the search is broken because I haven't found the need to search for those packages.

Exherbo may not be for you. It values users who are willing to be developers as well, and augment the system with the packages they need. You want others to do the work for you, that's not what Exherbo is about.

Besides, the original discussion concerned what package management system was best, not if it had tool X, Y or Z that you claim is very often needed.

The article seems to be suggesting that it's alright to limit freedom of speech a little, as long as some "suitable" Schelling points are established.

But that doesn't work because Schelling points are subjective. You can't reliably convince everyone that some specific arbitrary threshold should never be crossed, because it will surely lead to doom. Some might agree, and others will see things in a different way.

That's why it's pointless to even try, and that's why it's pointless to think about freedom of speech in terms of Schelling points.

So how about just pretending there's a Schelling point at 100% of freedom of speech? Any concession from that will inevitably lead to more, and besides, losing our freedom of speech is not a clear-cut phenomenon anyway.

It's a bit like new currency entering circulation at various points in the economy - some people's perceptions of what's acceptable will shift before others', but will in turn affect the perceptions of others around them. Freedom of speech rots in arbitrary, unpredictable and uneven ways.

>>I understand a student wanting a Master's, but the little extra knowledge gained with a Phd seems pointless?

I think you might be a misinformed. A Ph.D. does not give you "a little extra knowledge" over a Master's. It allows you to deeply specialize in a small part of a given field. By the time you get your Ph.D., you're one of the world's foremost experts on that narrow topic. The value of that might be arguable based on what you studied (e.g. linguistic history of languages in Tanzania might be too obscure), but a Ph.D. is far more knowledgeable than someone with Master's.

The primary difference between a Master's and a Ph.D. is that the former is industry-oriented whereas the latter is research-oriented. That the latter is a continuation of the former is a a common misconception.

If you find yourself repeating a pattern in many places, with slight variations in the values used, that's a good candidate for refactoring that pattern into an abstraction for that resources. In your example, I can easily imagine refactoring uses of that library being abstracted into a class or a set of functions so that interaction with the library only happens in one place.
Completely depends on your location/school/work place etc. In Canada, many people use VPNs to access American Netflix, so here, the companies that specialize in that are doing very well. I think the average cost is likely about $5 per month, almost the same cost as Netflix itself.

> Pictures of people being harmed (child abuse images are not porn) are not speech they are evidence of a crime.

No, they are a crime in se.

Child pornography is special in that possession of child pornography is automatically a crime, even if the person didn't know the pictures were of children[0], or even if they person didn't know they had them.

Let's say your 16-year-old friend, as a joke, puts a nude photo of himself/herself on your phone. If a policeman searches you and finds it, and you admit you were in possession of the phone before the search, you are automatically guilty of possession of child pornography, even if you can prove you didn't know the photo was there.

I'll say it again: if you admit to possessing something that is later found to have contained child pornography while it was in your possession, you are automatically guilty of possession of child pornography.

Sorry, in my other reply I didn't state any hard evidence. Assuming my theory/prediction/opinion is true, it is unlikely that there would be a public release of information concerning secret inter-government negotiations.

However, this did happen: 1) three countries (Iran, Venezuela, and North Korea) in the early 2000s publicly stated their intention of going off of the US dollar for trading (the first two, Iran and Venezuela are oil producers). 2) shortly afterwards, all three countries were labeled "axis of evil" states. I am no fan of any of the governments of any of these countries but it seems like more of a coincidence that strong actions were taken right after the declarations to go off of the dollar. In addition to sanctions against Iran, shortly after Venezuela made its announcement, the US Navy had it largest ever peace time prolonged naval exercise right off of the coast of Venezuela.

So, I admit that I personally don't have any hard evidence, just my own analysis. That said, I thought that I made it clear in my top level comment that what I was saying was the shared opinions of my friend and I.

And Tobin's point is that we're all feeling bubble-icious.

Handwaving about intangible values or customer goodwill doesn't change the fact that market expectations are primarily built on faith in the future, which is an entirely irrational basis for economic decision-making.

It's certainly difficult to quantify the value of IP, as opposed to the value plant and machinery.

But are most valuations driven by guesses about the future value of IP that have at least some connection with economic reality? Or are they driven by hope, hype, and momentum?

The reliable and empirically predictable manic-depressive boom-bust cycle of corporate capitalism strongly suggests the latter.

Or to put it another way - at some point the QE taps are going to be turned off, and the economy is going to have to go back to buying and selling stuff that people want instead of relying on stock price inflations created by cheap money hand-outs to banks so generously donated by the Fed and the other national banks.

Anyone who thinks there won't be a "significant adjustment" when that happens is - IMO - fooling themselves.
That is the question of course: who gets to decide what constitutes 'abuse'? Do you trust anyone in your government to decide which of the words, writings, blog posts, comments or tweets you make constitute 'abuse' of another person?

Given that the go-to rhetoric of so many political and religious groups is to be "offended" as a substitute for being right, laws that restrict 'hate' speech or 'abuse' speech create more legal cover for the people who are least willing to cope with criticism than the people who are most vulnerable to abuse.

And, usually, you will find that the people who are least willing to cope with criticism are the people who should be most criticized, because no one's ideas are sacrosanct.

Freedom of speech is also the freedom to listen, or not to listen. Abuse and hate can be countered with more robust freedom of speech, more social shunning, more economic boycotting--it does not require government intervention to curb all the 'isms'.

Option 3 is a reasonable choice, but I don't think it's an example of what the article discusses.

The example you provided is a good one, because it's an instance where you can't write abstractions to help you in the language you're using. Defining new classes, their interfaces and members is part of the necessary scaffolding when writing in C++. (Let's pretend it's not possible to do this with the C preprocessor.)

But the first example in the article does not sound like your example. Rather, it sounds closer to im3w1l's example, where the programmer copied code for some particular functionality, not for scaffolding.

Q ratio is Market Value / Asset Value.

In the case of low value businesses like Yoga Studios & Startups, yes the value is nil. For good reason -- a Yoga studio's only asset is it's book of business. You don't fire the employees and get any meaningful liquidation value. Ditto for startups -- startups are evaluated at future value... present value is laptops + IKEA Tables.

But we're not talking about Yoga studios, we're talking about Fortune 500 companies. When you are selling for more than you are worth, you'd better hope you keep delivering, because the market will punish you brutally when you slip up.
Obviously, however, replacement cost for intangibles is impossible to estimate accurately. Especially if you consider the risk that the "replacement" is a failure or doesn't accurately replace the institutional knowledge, intellectual property and goodwill the company has accrued.

It is fair to say that stock prices are not representative of current value, but rather the long term value and growth the company has yet to realize. So in that sense, Tobin is right, but the growth the company has yet to realize is really just goodwill accrued as an asset. Meh. I'm rambling now.

They already can. Those with enough resources can get lawyers that allow them to get up next to the line without crossing it.

>And hey, fuck it - as a boss, I could say "Black people are inherently stupid, don't hire them". My hypothetical staff then take me at my word and don't hire them. There's no formal policy, it's just something I said. But I point at "no limitation on freedom of speech" and then any laws on discrimination are basically null and void.

Official policy has never been a requirement for discrimination lawsuits.

>Insurance companies in the US already have departments dedicated to getting them out of their contracts. Imagine how much easier their jobs would be if they could just flat-out lie, with no legal repurcussions? People can jaw all they want about 'the market would correct itself', but if you've already captured the market, fighting dirty keeps you strong - especially with a product with a very high barrier to entry.

Freedom of speech still means you are held to that speech when you sign it as a contract. Trying to stretch contract laws as being related to freedom of speech is showing an extreme attempt to stretch.

>a simplistic

It has far more thought to it than the notion that free speech means contract law is void or that discrimination is legalized.

>extremist

Being such a core right, any position is that of an extremist.

Neither does the very concept of rights. Out in a jungle, no right you have will protect you from someone or something that wants your resources.

I tend to avoid writing Scala code with lots of OOP patterns, because it really adds complexity for things you don't need to. The "Functional Way" wins every time in terms of readability and simplicity, when you are accustomed to this logic.

I would say, you can try at the beginning if it's easier for you to translate from OOP language with OOP concepts to FP, but eventually you'll end avoiding that.

If you are looking for a way to organize your code, I'll suggest to experiment with OCaml modules. I found them very clean.
Wait wait wait. You're saying that expressing comparative weakness to show sympathy is being mean?

What?
>And hey, fuck it - as a boss, I could say "Black people are inherently stupid, don't hire them".

You can already say this and not get in trouble, though it definitely wouldn't help your case in the event that a rejected black applicant chose to sue you for discrimination. The plaintiff would need to show a preponderance of evidence that they were passed over specifically because of their race and they would've surely been hired otherwise. A general statement showing a dislike for black people isn't sufficient. Discrimination is a civil, not a criminal, offense.

IANAL, this is to the best of my knowledge.

> five people (so far) have considered that child abuse images are not evidence of a crime strongly enough to downvote

I actually didn't downvote you, but the problem is that you're making a lot of assumptions when you say "child porn", and you're ignoring a key way that that child porn is already treated specially by the law[0].

If you're 17 and your 17-year-old boyfriend/girlfriend texts you a nude selfie, that's child porn. If your phone is confiscated before you even open the text, you're guilty of possession of child porn.

If you're 5, and your parent or relative sexually abuses you and records the events on film, that's child porn even if they don't distribute it. If they do, everyone who receives it is in possession of evidence of your abuse.

Child porn is evidence of a crime, but the question is, crime by whom? In the first case case, it's not clear morally that the person who unknowingly received a nude selfie from an underage person committed a crime, even though legally the law treats both cases as identical.

[0] For contrast, if you are found in possession of drugs, you can theoretically make the defense that you didn't know you had them. It's a weak defense, but it is legally possible - with child porn, even if you succeed in convincing the judge/jury of that fact, it doesn't affect your case one bit.
A very stimulating environment isn't what a kid always needs. Quite apart from inter-kid differences, the downtime is just as important. My kid got a lot from just being carried around (or later following us around) while we continuously narrated what we were doing (laundry: look here, we match up the socks by colour; cooking: watch out this knife is very sharp but see how the carrots come apart). So net not a huge increase in time.

BUT kids are super exhausting and demanding and if you are worn out you won't be able to help them much either. I tried not to bring up my kid the way you describe, but I have to say there were plenty of times when I did the equivalent (no iPads or TVs in our case but essentially much the same). He came out fine.

There is no perfect system and what works for one doesn't necessarily work for someone else.

This may in fact, be wrong, if that laptop is the only way to say, stop and outage costing 100 million a minute.

It would be worth $0 most of the time, and ~100 million a minute during that outage.

(Rather than IP, let's say the laptop's TPM chip is what is necessary to get access to stop the outage, so it's tied to something real)
I agree that there is potentially a distinction. Speech that is restricted in public (eg through a public libel trial) is different to speech that is restricted by preventing the person from ever speaking.

In the former, you get to state your opinions publicly but then have to defend them, but no secrets are kept.
> No, they are a crime in se.

Agreed. However, they are also evidence that a child has been abused and this was my point. That images of abuse are not speech in the sense of exchange of ideas, opinions and facts and don't need to be protected by free speech laws.
