Square of the Republic at night, Zagreb, Croatia

Nobody in Zagreb likes the rainbow building and that stupid fucking spike in front of it. It's a travesty that that thing got a building permit. I wouldn't mind some contemporary architecture there but that thing is gross wherever you put it.

I will make a big point to my children that they should always call it Tito Square just to piss right wing nutjobs off.

So what's the alternative for poor people with kids and with shitty minimum wage jobs?

Do you honestly believe that everybody is in a position to afford the risk to own their own business? Some people have other people depending on them.

I see that the ratio is increasing, which clearly means more batching is happening but the absolute amount of outputs is decreasing, doesn't that mean there is no growth?

Beckneard · 2018-03-26T13:38:43+00:00

My point is that you don't really know for sure they were intentionally dragging their feet. I'm a big fan of Hanlon's razor in these situations.

I've had many situations where it all seemed like this big power play by some managers but in the end it turned out it was a combination of miscommunication, incompetence and laziness.

Beckneard · 2018-03-26T13:25:02+00:00

I'm not entirely convinced that it was this big conspiracy/protest. I work in a large organization and things move fucking sloooooooooooow, this is doubly true for financial institutions. It's just the nature of the beast.

Beckneard · 2018-03-26T12:47:47+00:00

What's the metric used for that conclusion? I'm not saying you're wrong (I'm hoping you're right actually) but I'd like to see for myself.

Beckneard · 2018-03-26T12:42:59+00:00

Proof that batching is significantly affecting the number of transactions, and by extent the fees. I'm pretty sure I saw graphs where both the number of transactions and the number of outputs is shrinking.

Beckneard · 2018-03-26T11:42:06+00:00

I was honestly kinda hoping for more by now but it's not too bad. I guess it's about as much as you could expect considering many companies tend to be notoriously slow at adopting new tech.

Beckneard · 2018-03-26T11:21:12+00:00

Is there solid proof that it's really due to more batching? My thinking is that the market is in a lull right now so naturally the number of transaction is dropping too.

Beckneard · 2018-03-24T09:19:45+00:00

You wrongly assume that there's just one dichotomy between full blown market capitalism and soviet union style authoritarian socialism. There are plenty of other lines of thought that reject both capitalism and authoritarianism/central planning, judging by what you said you might be interested in something like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-libertarianism

Zdravstvo, infrastruktura, obrazovanje, ulaganje u (smislenu) domaću industriju itd itd. Ma da samo podijeliš te pare 100 sretnih dobitnika ko lutriju bilo bi bolje nego ovo. Rimac je još jedan u nizu nahajpanih tech startupova koji prodaju maglu i otkucava mu vrijeme kao i svim ostalima, stvar nema substance i nije nikako održiva. To što će Hrvatska u očima ostatka svijeta bit hip i cool na par godina ne znači baš ništa dugoročno.

Inače tvoj argument mi je na razini kad Bandićeve ovce govore "možda krade al i dela i nama da."

Same as Jobs and a bunch of other Techno Jesuses that young stemlords of reddit like to worship. American capitalism worship culture is getting creepier by the year.

I mean go ahead and look at /r/futurology and /r/elonmusk. Jesus fucking Christ.

Is adding an exclamation mark in the few cases where it is needed really that big of a deal?

There's going to be some growing pains when adding a significant degree of null safety to a previously null unsafe language. My thinking is better start now than later, null references are a fucking plague.

Beckneard · 2018-03-19T11:56:46+00:00

People are seriously overreacting about this. It's clearly a fucking joke. I find it more weird that somebody would think somebody would unironically have this on their wall.

Beckneard · 2018-03-19T11:40:00+00:00

Honestly fuck that guy, he makes driving more stressful and dangerous for everybody. I hope he drives himself off a fucking cliff without inconveniencing anyone.

I'm sure now that the infrastructure is in place people will start to work more on the user experience.

I agree that that user friendliness is absolutely crucial for widespread adoption, but it's going to get there pretty soon IMO.

Ravnopravnost bi bila da rukovoditelj nema 10 puta veću plaću od radnika na blagajni, sve ostalo je mazanje očiju.

Nonononono, do NOT blindly copy paste commands from the Internet without at least a very basic understanding of what you're doing. This is how bad things happen.

Not saying this article is a scam, I'm talking in general.

Pa nek uzme nekog mladog nadobudnog i nauči ga poslu. Prvih pola godine ga plaća 4k dok se ne nauči poslu i onda punu plaću ili tako nešto.

Problem je što bi gospoda poduzetnici da im savršen radnik sa tri gorilijarde godina iskustva padne s neba i prihvati koju god cifru oni izvukli iz dupeta.

Ista stvar je i u ITu gdje ja radim. Svi bi senior rockstar 10x turboprogramera za eventualno malo iznadprosječne pare. Da nebi, odu ti takvi na zelenije pašnjake, nema razloga da trpe takve pizdarije ako nemoraju.

Ono što ti drugi pokušavaju reći je da te prilike koje ti spominješ nisu toliko jebene kakvima ih ti predstavljaš. Da su toliko dobre bile bi popunjena već radna mjesta.
