> Why AREN'T you more angry about that fact? Why AREN'T you doing everything in your power to change it??? Immortality is the ONLY thing that should matter, or else everything you do in life is theoretically pointless.

Because I'm not so narcissistic to think that my particular life matters that much. I live well, I try to care for others and when I am gone I am gone.

There is no shame in mortality.
Correct me if I am wrong, but the page has links to the book you mention as well.

However, the your link says Edition 2005 while the pdfs linked to by the posted page say Revised Edition 2013.

> I wonder why in the US states can go bankrupt, states much larger than Greece:

Is this true? Has any US state gone bankrupt? Can you share a link? The closest I know was California having some financial trouble, but no bankrupt was declared, afaik.

> Without any impact on the US $

The $ is no normal currency: it is the world currency. Most international contracts are done in $. By chance (if you are charitable) or by design (if you tend to conspiracy theories, like me), the $ gives the US a huge financial advantage.

The markets are rigged in favor of the $.

You are brainwashed are purposely putting the girls who are interested in you into the for the sole reason because you feel you need to be faithful to the "Indian Culture" where sex is overrated. I understand your feelings. It's like being disallowed to enjoy the pleasures of women when every one else is enjoying. "Fuck the Culture". I'm half indian and half spanish and total computer geek. Indians get brainwashed to be pure. Fuck it man. Being a geek has nothing to do with it. If you play the geek stereotype of being a awkward and shit, it starts becoming a part of you and you become that person. I always think of Tony Stark, Mr. Stark is a ultra nerd, but does he play the geek stereotype like Peter Parker? Fuck no. Stark gets mad pussies all the time. Being good with women is like practicing programming. Meet as many as you can, talk with as many as you can. Try different test cases. Say any random bullshit. I once asked a girl whether she liked eating yogurt? Big picture You need to get comfortable with women before you lose your "V".

YouTuber PewDiePie Responds to Haters After They Discover He Made $7M
What IS the postwar lesson?

The Germans argued, in short, that "we've changed, and because of the change the leniency will really help". The change was clear: The Bundestag didn't look like either the Weimar Reichstag or the Nazi regime.

It'll be difficult for the Greek to put forward the same argument, so long as their pension scheme remains severely underfinanced, etc. Syriza's argument is basically "we suffer", which is undoubtedly true, but it's a very different argument, not one that can be supported by the German experience.

But did the communist party refuse to back the communist party? Because the PLA is part of the CCP. It's not a separate military. It's the armed wing of the Chinese Communist Party. Senior PLA officers are senior party members. The PLA, by design, owes its first loyalty not to the people, or the law, or the constitution, but to the CCP. Significant political education goes on, permanently, to keep it this way.

I'm not saying it's impossible, but it wouldn't be a military coup; it would be the CCP splitting and turning on itself.
I've been on melatonin for a very long time. Maybe 10-15 years.

It took a very long time for it to not work as well as it used to, but that finally happened.

I find that even with poor sleep, you get more REM and more "recharge" with a healthy dose of melatonin. As far as sleep goes, in my mind it's a miracle drug.

I am addressing the specific example given by the Google style guide. The code for counting down using a signed integer as they do has more corner cases than the while loop I have shown. Using their way, you have to remember to subtract 1 from the size at the start and then use >= in the loop conditional. My way is just the inverse of what you do while counting up.

It's also worth pointing out the style of loop they give can't be used at all if you are counting down iterators or pointers instead of numbers.

Having done a small amount of volunteer work with children, I've had some exposure to child protection issues. Often, its a spiral downwards (IIRC its typically called the spiral of abuse), where the person in question erodes mental barriers so that they see the behaviour as normal. I don't accept the "just watching" argument - it is child abuse.

What you must understand is that it normalises the behaviour in that persons mind and then we're onto other barriers to be eroded - i.e. the person moves onto physical acts.

The blasé attitude on this thread is beyond belief.

Writing off the debt is the magic when the debt is as huge as it is for Greece.

Extending maturity and / or reducing interest rates do not help much if you know that whatever improvements you make to your economy will be swallowed by the financial markets in the future (since the debt still exists). You are a slave country (all countries are dependent on the financial markets in more or less measure, but Greece has completely lost its freedom)

Would you work to pay for your student loans if you realized that you will never be able to pay it back, in your whole work life, and that you will be subject to the dictate of your creditors forever? If default was not an option (you can not default on student debt in the US?), I would just leave the country.
> If the only retaliation someone has to 'we should start to think about how to consciously engineer our society such that we don't all have to work 40 hours a week for 40 years' with 'I don't want to spend two hours every 6 months moving composted poo around' ... then that person has missed the point.

That is not the author's thesis. His thesis is that having to trade your time for money is wrong.

If what you've said above is what you took away from the linked writing, I think you're projecting your own beliefs onto the author position, and we should stop this argument because I'm not against changing our relation with work. I just think this author is a bit of a nutter.

> As you get older you realise the imperative to be (exclusively, solely) more productive is somewhat misguided.

Economic productivity is what allows us to increase the quality of life and standard of living in a community. Reducing economic productivity reduces, eliminates or reverses those improvements.

> This does not devalue the proposition - it merely puts it into context.

Given that the author's proposition is to dismantle a system that for millennia bore specialists who make possible technological advance, and replace it with a system that rears general hobbyists, yes I believe it does devalue the proposition.

> You're doing that thing again. I quote myself, from the message that you responded to: [...]

That quote doesn't actually contribute to either your position or the discussion. You say 2bb people don't have plumbing, then say you don't think we shouldn't have plumbing, then go onto something else. Or is your alternative that we should all have pit toilets?

We should be discussing the broken alternative proposition of the author, but: those 2 billion folks that don't have sanitation and plumbing would likely choose sanitation and plumbing if they could. They obviously live in areas where pit toilets and outhouses aren't enough to deal with the human waste they produce, or they'd just be digging latrines and outhouses and using those.

So, if your position is that we can get by without professional sanitation and pluming industries, they would seem to be the counterpoint.

Fundamentally, do you really agree we'll get more scientists, engineers, professional specialists, innovating and advancing our society and the same or greater pace, if everyone just stops working and "pursues their passions"?

I of course assume you mean a developer at Rockstar... The creator of GTA and thus conclude that 'game developer' is the answer to the question?

Also being a ninja by night and developer by day would rank pretty high in the 'being cool' charts. Though I believe 'prestige' would come from things such as creating a product that is then acquired by Google or Facebook.

Then again, what is 'prestige' and why would you want it? The whole question implies that validation from others is the best thing you can achieve. While it is nice to be valued by your peers, why not aim for personal happiness and being a valuable parent, family member, friend, etc?

Just do what you want to do and don't worry if people think you have a 'prestigious' job title at a 'prestigious' company.

Edit: then again I realise that it might make you happy to be able to call yourself 'prestigious' so then the question is perfectly valid.

I vaped unflavored nicotine for about 2 years. Intermittent at first, heavy daily use during the second year, equivalent to a pack of cigarettes per day or more. I quit because enjoyment decreased to the point where it was no longer worth the hassle.

I experienced zero addiction for the first three months, and even after the full two years addiction was mild. I reduced my dose gradually over two weeks. There were no physical withdrawal symptoms, and only minor craving which went away after a few months abstinence. I'm no expert on heroin addiction, but I find it hard to believe it's equal to nicotine. Perhaps whole tobacco would be different.

Honest question: reading the "Political activism" section of the author's wikipedia article[1] gives me no hope of an unbiased analysis of the situation. In the book, does he try to give a balanced view, or is it a reflection of his own views as an anti-statist Austrian School economist?

>I'm not really sure - most of the time you probably wouldn't know, so there would be times when you unintentionally hosted something you disagreed with. One way to solve that is to simply not host content at all, and only download.

Is it technically possible to divide a specific content to many providers? For example let this string "1234567890" be a content. Could an incentivized server A hosts first, third and tenth characters and server B and C host other characters. Could a client download the content properly in terms of speed. It seems like it is very similar or same with torrent and possible. Therefore, anyone could not be accused of hosting those random samples. Only integrating those samples -downloading- can be a kind of a guilt.
The German change was a politic change, and was inevitable because they lost the war, and the political ideology which started it all was bankrupt, defeated and exterminated. From this politic change, they extracted a debt relief which helped them to recover. Without that, they would have languished economically, just as the Greek are doing now.

The Greece change can not come because the main reason that is keeping them in crisis (the debt burden) will not disappear.

That is why they are asking for debt relief: they want to bankrupt the old system.

Because we're familiar with humans. Most humans don't want to hurt/kill other humans, nor do they have the power to do that on a large scale.

We can't say that about an AI. If it decides to exterminate us, there's nothing much we can do.

> Now, the more astute reader will point out that I just sent over 4 gigabytes of data over the internet; and that this can’t really be all that interesting - but that argument is readily countered with gzip encoding, reducing the required data to a 4 megabyte payload.

This was pretty much my first thought on seeing the IOBuffer signature - "That exploit payload is going to be huge". But things are not always as they seem and using gzip to generate a large string on the client is something I had not previously considered.
Well it gets more complex when you add mark to market into the mix. Plenty of the financial products that "blew up" in 2007/2008 were actually very profitable for those able to hold on to them.
Stripe and offshore companies with bank accounts outside of the States

I'm running my company 3 years and never had problem with any other payment processor. Stripe couldn't answer why I cannot do that except for the vague explanations. I came here so maybe someone reasonable will hear my voice and help me out with this "impossible" situation?

Why does this matter? size_t is intended to be used as an index into a dense array, i.e. for every Index i you may want to store in a size_t, you also store i elements X of some data type. Since that number is limited both by the software architecture and the hardware available at runtime, why would you want to know exactly how many X you can store?

> i have read nowhere that syriza wanted to collect the taxes people were owing the state

They do. They have stated this clearly ("Raise income tax to 75% for all incomes over 500,000 euros.", "Increase taxes on big companies to that of the European average.", "Adoption of a tax on financial transactions and a special tax on luxury goods.", [0]), over and over again. However, you can't change a country that quickly. It will take many years.

> i have read nowhere that syriza wanted to cut state spending by reducing the unneeded government employed workforce.

First, just because jobs are performed by the government and not by private companies does not imply that they are not needed. There likely is greater inefficiency, I agree. But 'public sector jobs = unneeded jobs' is wrong. Second, cutting those jobs is often impossible (for example in Germany it would be, because government jobs are guaranteed for a lifetime.) and even if they can be cut, they will drive up unemployment which already stands at 25% and 60% for young people.

> i have read nowhere that syriza wants to tax the rich greeks that pay virtually to really no taxes (reeders for example)

They do [1]. They proposed it, but the IMF did not go along, as far as I know. Reeders are also probably harder to tax, because they can probably simply fly the flag of a country that doesn't tax them. [1]
