I guess it depends on what a 'big deal' is exactly, but if it saves me all the Googling I do now then it'll be <i>really useful</i> (to me).<p>I don't expect them to really provide an <i>intelligent</i> artificial pair programmer, so you're right that this won't help with "any non-trivial complex problem", but that's okay with me.<p>I don't mind being spoon fed stuff I'm not interested in acquiring 'the hard way'. Do you also disdain autocompletion in your code editors?

Because humans will never stop climbing. It's built into us. Even most people in poverty want to climb, they just have little to no options, so they find ways to cope nevertheless.<p>As for rising prices, surely they can't rise <i>everywhere</i>? People will be able to afford to abandon the obscenely wealthy playpens (SF, NY, Tokyo, etc) and move somewhere that's affordable. Cost of living varies depending on location, doesn't it? Surely this would result in more competition, not less?

An earlier Freakonomics episode [1] discusses whether early retirement is bad for the health. According to the show it actually might be: <i>"one additional year of early retirement causes an increase in the risk of premature death of 2.4 percentage points"</i><p>Guaranteed Basic Income sounds like an early retirement option for most people, so where it's probably a fantastic opportunity for self-starters, it might be lethal for everyone else. GBI's side effect can be weeding out non-entrepreneurs.<p>[1] Early Retirement: Bad For Your Health? <a href="http://freakonomics.com/2012/03/29/early-retirement-bad-for-your-health/" rel="nofollow">http://freakonomics.com/2012/03/29/early-retirement-bad-for-...</a>

The numbers seem to work for the US.<p>A 10% income tax increase redistributed to all US households would be ~$11,000 per household, which is right about what the poverty line is for 1 person.

Honestly, it just sounds like you've restated one of the simple versions of how basic income actually would work (and why it should be economically "easy"), and its basically the way people think Social Security works (it's subtly different, but that's a tangential discussion). MMT (Modern Monetary Theory) isn't really that far from "pretend the government had an investment account for every person and then handed them a check for the interest returns on that account", just with a lot more subtlety in what constitutes that account (because money is something the government creates in how it taxes money) and where that interest return "comes from" (because it's already there in tax credits and 0% loans to big corporations and government debt bonding and even the nature of inflation itself and weirder things). Of course, I'm oversimplifying as well, but the point is you have found the rabbit hole.<p>Which is to say, spot on, you've hit near the right track and aren't too far from what a lot of guaranteed basic income discussions generally start from and are basically about.

<i>"Without emotions there'd be no point in doing anything."</i><p>This is a mantra supported by the (still) majority of our current society. I presume that people who believe it don't really bother to investigate other beliefs or if there might be another base for "doing anything". To give you a hint, "emotion" and "feeling" are not the same (and "feeling" is more than "sensation"). For example, curiosity made you want to learn about the world around you and logical (mental) stimulation is the expected reason for wanting challenge and accomplishment. Emotions are just another kind of mental stimulation, one that (as I've mentioned before) played out its role and become a liability for far too many.<p>As a side note, when you'll drop again references in the future, don't make it too hard for your audience to pick them up. As a non-native English speaker it wasn't obvious to me that "spock" is a character (whose name I would have capitalized) instead of a less used word.

I'm not clear on why we need to upload the full codebase.<p>The Privacy Policy indicates that this is because their index of public code is too large to copy to the client machine. So why can't my machine just send queries as needed, or, even better, download the subset of the index relevant to my project?<p>Maybe it was easier to ship the "local code" search features by building on top of the existing public code indexing, which is server-side. But, despite the extra engineering work, client-side indexing for local code would definitely make a <i>lot</i> more sense for most customers.

Rents in cheaper markets need to be less than the difference in cost of living plus the cost of moving (amortized somehow.) Sadly, improved transportation infrastructure and technology seems only to concentrate people even more in dense, expensive cities. These cities have a lot of opportunity and connections that keep people there, often rationally, but people who struggle stay as well.

One potential source of revenue-neutral money for it is reducing other social and welfare programs. The theory goes that a UBI program would have less administrative overhead, so the savings can go to "the people". And arguably this is the hardest way to do it, politically, because it would reduce the number of bureaucratic jobs available.

It's not selfish, you are supposedly in a room full of adults. Adults regulate their own emotional state. If you disagree consider this for a moment. Imagine when you were in high school there was a woman who you had feelings for. You would had prefered that she date you rather than the quarterback of the football team. Is she now required to do so? Is she selfish for not doing so? What of the quarterback, should we hurt his feelings to make you feel better? It's all so ridiculous from the start.

I am speaking of subprime mortgages. There was this period of time when you could get a mortgage while on disability (which is truly your "basic income" in poor neighborhoods, btw. Everyone has it. There are even specialized law firms that exist around that consumer demand.). The magic price of the house was about 40K - because that's that a person on SSI can get a mortgage for.

I think it's situational and individual. For a big man catching the ball at the top of the key, looking for an opportunity to drive is the logical thought, but if you're a point/shooting guard, you're much more likely (through a combination of training, psychology and physical attributes) to move laterally or take a step back. And beyond the individual level, there's the near-universal truth that a spread floor is better than cramping everyone in the lane.

Well, the real question is, are you ready to pay for the Guaranteed Basic Income? Generously assuming that it's not indexed to inflation, probably what would happen is that costs would rise to account for the newfound money. Then, of course, there would have to be services that remain in place, because if people spend their income stupidly, we can't have them starving in the streets. Then you have the collection problem, that suddenly taxes would have to go up (and they would, of course, regardless of how many services you think you can cut).<p>The people who pay? In general, as with any tax increase, it's the middle class. It's the couple that went to college, saved their money, worked hard, bought a house and started a family. Regardless of how much you think you can raise tax rates on "the rich", the only way to pay for something like this is by getting to the middle class, which is where the tax revenue is.

> “He got greedy,” Jody continued. “He probably could have closed up shop in 2006 or 2007, been a rich millionaire, and never have been investigated at all.”<p>This does seem to be a common thread with highly skilled and intelligent criminals. Their pride convinces them they can keep going when the truth is it is time to pull the ripcord years before they got caught and walk away with all the wealth a person would ever need to live happily ever after.

I'd practice cooking, read a lot, and do some coursera/udacity/whatever courses, and see my friends and family more.<p>I may work as I do now, but only a day or two a week. That would only be if I got very, very bored though.

I don't believe it will replace all/most welfare programs. I think it will replace some and then politicians will be elected to top it up for select groups. "Fairness" will come into play, "I am disadvantaged compared to this other person, I should get more, it's only Fair". Plus regional top ups, cost of living in different places is higher than others, I expect there will be a demand for a top up based on cost of living on top of basic BI, again that'll need to be enforced and administered.

The linked article on Motherboard [0] expands on this a little bit:<p>> <i>BlackBerry (formerly RIM) encrypts all messages sent between consumer phones, known as PIN-to-PIN or BBM messages, using a single “global encryption key” that’s loaded onto every handset during manufacturing. With this one key, any and all messages sent between consumer BlackBerry phones can be decrypted and read. In contrast, Business Enterprise Servers allow corporations to use their own encryption key, which not even BlackBerry can access.</i><p>[0]: <a href="http://motherboard.vice.com/read/rcmp-blackberry-project-clemenza-global-encryption-key-canada" rel="nofollow">http://motherboard.vice.com/read/rcmp-blackberry-project-cle...</a>

Define sentience?<p>The word originates from the Latin verb sentire, "to feel". Plants feel their environment. The Venus Fly Trap feels when an insect is on it, for example.<p>>Plants are sessile, highly sensitive organisms that actively compete for environmental resources both above and below the ground. They assess their surroundings, estimate how much energy they need for particular goals, and then realise the optimum variant. They take measures to control certain environmental resources. They perceive themselves and can distinguish between ‘self’ and ‘non-self’. They process and evaluate information and then modify their behaviour accordingly.<p>[1]Biocommunication of Plants, <a href="http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783642235238" rel="nofollow">http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783642235238</a><p>[2] <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_perception_(physiology)" rel="nofollow">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_perception_(physiology...</a><p>A more valid argument is that the sound or sight of killing an animal is more off-putting than killing a plant, which is of course a purely subjective sentiment, hence the deeming of "right vs wrong" which is itself a purely subjective sentiment.

The general argument (made e.g,. in the Alec Ross book) is that there will not be enough paid work left as more and more jobs are automated. So paying a basic income would become necessary to ensure people's survival (or prevent social unrest).

Two responses to that.<p>Firstly because, well, that's just the way it is sometimes. Putting a gate in your wall can let in bad guys who can plunder your city, yes. But it can also let in good guys who can fortify it. You just need to design and use your gate well...and, I suppose, think of the government as good guys. (Soz, I've been indulging in some nostalgia with AOE 2: HD recently....)<p>And two: who says this has to involve decreasing IT security? I haven't seen enough evidence of cooperation between the gov't and the tech industry on this for me to believe that an agreement on this would require decreasing IT security.

Frequently not as can be seen when the policy to achieve "x" does nothing of the sort, loses them the election or becomes some sort of personal vanity thing. Of course it depends on if the views expressed are of the politician or the party after you've attempted to pick out the double meaning. :)<p>> You believe what the politicians say?<p>If it's an independent I might. A party politician of any colour, usually not.

From my attempts, it's not trivial with bitbucket. Beyond that, the functionality for this app also includes slack notification on new releases,and a nice templated email notification on what's changed. That was the request from the guys wanting this app.The point is that an app can do a anything a user wants, tailored to that user.<p>The betting odds app was my own pet app, mostly for testing purposes. I listed it to demonstrate something like this can be done. Otherwise, a server, database and code all have to be setup, tested, and monitored. The idea here is to let developers focus on the code only, and easily publish apps for anyone to use.

This kind of tool destroys ones ability to program long sustainable production code. For a novice programmer this has tremendous negative effect on the learning curve. For an experienced programmer this tool is useless, because an experienced programmer will <i></i>NEVER<i></i> rely on "popularity" of some code-snippet out there in the wild. Programming is a very intense and deep practice and it is certainly not crafted using this kind of tools. This tool helps people write poor quality code for customers. Makes me wonder, what Knuth would say on this?

Precisely. The article cites one economist who opposes BI for this very reason:<p>ROBERT GORDON: As far as a guaranteed minimum income, I’m not in favor of that. I’m in favor of a modest increase in the minimum wage, and a substantial increase in the earned-income tax credit, which encourages low-income people to work.<p>DUBNER: Why would you not be in favor of the minimum guaranteed income?<p>GORDON: There’s too much of an incentive, if you guarantee income, to replace work. And if you provide a guaranteed minimum income to everybody, then those with low skills will drop out of the labor force and will no longer work. So I think it’s a matter of incentives. A guaranteed minimum income would put a very high implicit marginal tax rate on going to work, for those with relatively low skills.

But not everyone would. I really love my work. Fewer people in the marketplace would be good for me because it would drive up my wages, which means I could afford to do things that the average UBI recipient could not.<p>Also, it's not like UBI would solve all social problems. Many people who like to work in nonprofits today would continue to do so. Probably even more people would because they would have more of a safety net underneath them while they save the world.<p>That said, I'm skeptical of a UBI. Too many unknown consequences.

The article seems to ignore why many people buy a console over a pc (aside from price). When you buy an xbox or playstation you know that it should play all of the games released for the next 5 years or so.<p>Coming out with an xbox 1.5 or xbox 10 that obsoletes current gen consoles midway through a generation would be the biggest change ever to the game console business. Probably the worst thing they could do would be to make a new "low-cost" xbox that can't run games that are already out.<p>I can see Microsoft experimenting with doing small hardware improvements in a mid-cycle revision but I doubt they will make drastic changes.

Alex from kite here. Re privacy: we totally agree that it's a legit concern. when we started working on this we realized if we wanted to index tens of thousands of libraries, we wouldn't be able to ship the entire index along with the client. Hence the cloud-based architecture. We've thought a lot about privacy and written up our thoughts here: www.kite.com/privacy. The short answer is: we don't index anything on your computer that you don't explicitly ask us to, and our plan is to earn trust the hard (i.e. only) way: transparency, published policies, and a track record of good decision making.
