> Sound and rational means peer reviewed paper

"My doctor has told me I should not take in as much potassium as I have been so I am reducing my consumption of legumes" and "I have an ethical objection to killing sentient creatures so I restrict my diet in ways that minimize such killing"

Are both sound, rational judgements which do not require a peer reviewed paper.

>You(sic) vegan foodstuff also require the killing of sentient creatures - to grow food we have displaced a lot of animals from their habitats. Sometimes quite forcefully. So yeah - you probably have fewer animals on your conscience , but you have some.

I agree with you, completely - it is an uphill battle. It is very difficult to not directly compensate the killing of creatures in a world that considers it moral to kill 50+ billion animals every year (not including marine life) - but my ethics require that I at least try.
This cause is based on the wrong assumption: products and services are NOT getting more expensive (aside from health care and housing but I predict those too will become more affordable thanks to bots). And it is precisely b/c of automation that prices go down (the fact that you pay hundreds for an iPhone that costs tens to make has more to do with you being a victim of marketing and less to do with robots making the phone). Also, b/c many products and services that we now consume are digital (zero real cost of 'making' a copy) we need less money each month to consume them. Also, not to be surprised: good healthy home cooked meals are über cheap. And don't ignore this trend: the sharing economy. In sum: as everything commoditizes and we share products and services, we need less money to live. Maybe then what we need is to share jobs (work partime) and control personal expenses, until we reach Jacque Fresco's Resource Based Economy (google The Venus Project, b/c guess what, searching, finding and learning new information is nowadays almost always free!).

So pleeeease don't ask for a free basic income, I certainly don't want to pay more taxes ;)

That's an interesting way of looking at it.
yea, this goes with like every "factory reset". You must first fully encrypt the disk then erase it.

Of course, that's only 1/3 the problem. You now have a secret key that you can use to encrypt/decrypt messages with your neighbor - you need a good encryption algorithm (the next 1/3 of the problem, thankfully there are a lot of high quality ones to chose from.) But the missing 1/3 of the problem - Who are you communicating with? Is it the person you think it is, or some nefarious MITM.

Diffie-Hellman can give you confidentiality, but it won't authenticate your neighbor. To do that, you'll need either a shared secret (which, ironically, could have been used as your encryption key in the first place - It's the way statically configured IPSec without PFS works), or some form of PKI. But, if you have PKI, then you somehow managed to securely get a certificate on your system, and that mechanism also could have been used to get a secure encryption key.

I like the signify approach used by OpenBSD for authentication - they didn't even attempt to use a PKI or trust relationship (The entire thing was basically written in 10 days) - they just blasted their public key (including http://www.openbsd.org/57.html) for each release in every possible place they could think of, and users are expected to use some caution, also check email, and possibly smoke-signals into outer space, with that process to jump start security. Of course, once you have your first link-in-the-chain, you can use that to securely bootstrap the rest of the keys (which are included in each release).

You get a mechanism for Key-Exchange, but not Identify verification. At the end of the day, Diffie-Hellman needs a good PKI infrastructure to be useful.

I think the blaming is misplaced. Or at least we're inconsistent with it. Why not go ahead and blame the dropouts of whom there was a chance there was one who could have come up with the cure for some dreadful disease.

Or why not accuse artists and others who don't produce real goods of wasting their talents on creating art, some of it, in the form of hollywood movies, or extremely middle brow artists of having wasted opportunity. Or why not come down on plastic surgeons? Why not ask why they didn't become useful surgeons? Or barratry lawyers, why not ask them why they didn't all become constitutional lawyers criminal defense lawyers? Why not bemoan hack journalists for failing serious journalism and affronting the profession?

No, but tech workers must be exceptional and we must expect much more from them than the rest of the population rather than let them pursue what they want as we allow the rest to do without much repudiation.

Setting aside small towns, I find it a bit alarming how many huge cities I know nothing about, places like Tianjin, Dhaka, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, and Yangon. (Of course if everyone but me is familiar with these cities, I'm sure you'll let me know...) My theory is that the "culturally important" cities that everyone knows (Moscow, Cairo, London, etc.) lags by decades behind the actual growth of cities. Of course, renaming places like Rangoon to Yangon also doesn't help.

Take a look at the list of big cities and see how many you know: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_proper_by_popula...

You're treating "people" as isolated individuals, some may be more "cautious" than others. But what's happening here is probably no more and no less than social trends and attitudes. What you attribute to caution is an interesting shift in society's attitude to technology and industrialization that is far more complex than just well-reasoned caution. The rule is, whenever you see a lot of people behave in the same way, it's almost never due to some empirical, reasoned argument that they all arrive at, and almost always due to cultural influence (which may or may not be partly based on evidence).
I get what you are saying. I just don't trust a word Buffet writes or says. He claims he isn't leaving any of his money to his kids, but he set each up with a billion dollar charity organization.

I once read a very good article, wish I could find the link, that talks about Buffet and says that anytime Buffet says something you should wonder what's in it for him. That while he is claiming your best interest, his hand is reaching into your pocket to steal a dollar.

We can theorize all day. Where is the data? The truth is we don't know how to guarantee business success, except via shotgun techniques (funding lots of random attempts). This strongly suggests that technical debt is not that important of a construct.
I think a very important aspect of scaling is separating responsibilities. In most startups it's often the case that a single person takes on multiple tasks. Those make sense in the early stages, but as the company grows they become a limiting factor.

The problem is that some people get comfortable doing multiple roles. That however means that they can only invest a fraction of their time. This means that early on the company gets something, which is better than nothing, but as it grows it's only getting something and that's not enough.

This is applicable to most potosi on, but becomes org debt when the founder(s) don't "replace" themselves.

Of course, but most people out there got into it because of the money or because there's nothing else for them. It's not a job where a new entrant to the workforce will think "yeah I think I'll do that for a living". Same with waste management jobs, etc. More standard vocational jobs like electricians would be separate, as its more 'desirable' and 'cool' from a young age, at least among some.

I'd also argue that a civil engineer is an entirely different beast from the actual laborers, who I was referring to. My understanding of a CE in that scenario is more of a planning and overseeing role (correct me if I'm wrong about that).

You could describe basically every mundane activity as having a core set of beliefs that lead to action, but ok.

> I very much doubt that even if we were to develop sufficient technology to unfreeze all those heads, future humans would do so. Perhaps we'd unfreeze some heads for science and then a few more for the novelty.

Not reviving cryopreserved people is equivalent to leaving them to die... Unless you're counting on future society to be completely 100% morally bankrupt, I would bet on there being eventually at least one person with both enough of a conscience and enough money to fund the revival of people in suspended animation (as the cost of revival should decrease over time with advancing technology). Not that this really seems relevant to any connection to religion.

> Apropos, cryonics proposes its own cycle of rebirth! Well, possible rebirth until the great robot wars, the sun explodes, or the heat death of our local cluster.

FWIW, unlike religion, cryonics does not really claim you can come back from death. Legal death, yes, but legal death is merely a convenient criterion that captures "the point at which we give up on treating a person with current technology". If you set a cryonicist on fire and destroy their brain's information, they are permanently dead, just like anyone else.

(ETA: Since physics is reversible, destroying information is technically impossible, but capturing and calculating reversal of the trajectories of smoke, soot, air and photons back into a whole brain seems thermodynamically infeasible, even for a civilization with Big Angelic Powers.)

I also wonder how ad providers with a greater scope than just advertisements would react to this. For instance, take Facebook—their ecosystem encompasses ads, social features, and login/identity management at this point. If we get into an arms race at some point, I could see this getting ugly if these other features become collateral.

But this isn't a binary choice between the USA Freedom Act and the Patriot Act. From what I can see the best thing to do would be to let the Patriot Act expire and replace it with nothing. The government is very short on evidence the powers in that law have resulted in thwarted terrorist attacks.

Organizational debt can create technical debt and may be the single biggest cause.

Even if you make it with technical debt, somewhere in your org, someone's life is worse because of that technical debt, but the cause was probably organizational debt. The good employees see it sooner and suffer it longer or leave before others see it. A downward spiral in other words with entropy increasing.

Compared to the 1%? Fuck yes. Does the 1% dole out social security? Build schools? Roads? I don't think so.

Not unless it's designed to be regressive (e.g. a poll tax instead of based upon the value of the property).

Property taxes are naturally progressive - the more your property is worth, the more you pay in tax.

You misunderstand.

The repo you're referring to is Railwaycat's mirror of Yamamoto Mitsuharu's codebase. (which previously was only available via ftp and tarballs.)

Yamamoto has recently migrated to git and hosts a repo at Chiba U, the address is: http://www.math.s.chiba-u.ac.jp/~mituharu/emacs-mac.git

HOWEVER. Railwaycat does still maintain the Homebrew tap and formula for installing Emacs Mac Port

Here: https://github.com/railwaycat/homebrew-emacsmacport

A simple install via:

brew tap railwaycat/emacsmacport
brew update
brew install emacs-mac

And you have a far superior Emacs for OSX than that built by emacsformacosx.com.

Once built, you can (without any problems) move the Emacs.app into your /Applications/ folder.

Don't do yourself a disservice, install Emacs Mac Port now.

How is your position distinct from, "I don't understand X, ergo X can't be very important"? Because it looks pretty much the same to me.

If you think each business is a "random attempt", I hope you're never a founder. Modern businesses are highly non-random. It's true that investing in startups is in some sense gambling, but it's gambling on a highly filtered subset of all existing businesses, which is in turn a tiny fraction of all possible businesses.

The "where is the data" line is especially misleading here because no data just means no data. There are no high-n, double-blind studies validating the concept of technical debt. But there are also no studies demonstrating it's not a useful concept. And that's most of life: the decisions we have to make rarely can be solved by looking up journal studies. When that's the case, we have to apply other tools.

Using city governments to tighten the supply of accommodation via zoning laws is only half the story. Using the national government to boost the demand for it via increased immigration is the other half. Countries like Australia and Canada have mastered this, and the parts of the US that didn't experience falls in the price of residential accommodation after 2008 were the places popular with immigrants, particularly those from Asia, like from Seattle down to San Jose. One city currently with high rental costs and property prices is Auckland New Zealand, where the city and the country are almost the same entity, if you get what I mean. Because of onerous zoning laws and a high influx of immigrants and international students, the supply is restricted and the demand is boosted, resulting in skyrocketing rental and sale prices for residential property.

Adding git-gutter to the mix will allow staging / reverting at the hunk level.

I should probably note also that in Magit status, the user has to TAB the unstaged file to be able to do region or hunk level staging.

Not even git-gutter has region style staging. Hopefully it will be implemented soon. I had a crack at it but time got away from me.

So yes this is apparently a resubmission. But this statement struck me:

"Since the acquisition, Biswas, who is 32, has fought to retain the spirit of the vanguard, but his struggle reveals an implicit fear — that young engineers might be willing to work at Meraki but not at Cisco (because it’s too big and fusty), or that clients might be willing to buy from Cisco but not Meraki (because they don’t really trust start-ups)."

So maybe the answer is for these large companies to spin out R&D departments into their own companies with different names and corporate cultures. The primary customer at first would be the parent, but employees wouldn't have to deal with the nonsense that comes with working at a large multi-national company, or with the risk that comes from working for an unproven startup. The companies could also generate revenue from outside customers that do not compete with the parent and be publicly traded as a separate entity, which means that the value of options given to employees and the underlying stock wouldn't necessarily be tied to the prospects of the parent. Young engineers go to work for the fun R&D startup, and customers buy the products they design from the large, reputable parent.
