So sure, give Thomas Jefferson and George Washington a huge percentage of the profit from this country.

A better analogy is that Sergey Brin's kids will never have to lift a finger in his life, and he'll still make more money than all of your grand kids combined, regardless of how smart, good, and ambitious they are.
Although, reading Hacker News is what I'm "actually doing," and I'm very focused on it!
The biggest challenge with fishing is the ocean is largely a shared resource. The incentive to preserve and protect is much smaller, because you can just fish in international waters or sneak over to somebody else's waters to fish, and conserving in your own waters may be fruitless because other people will come a'fishin!

Basically, one giant global tragedy of the commons.
> But I'd definitely rather be buying a house in a high interest rate environment... don't like the tail risk given how low rates are.

Don't forget the tail risks of inflation.

The risk of not buying a house in a low-rate environment is that inflation takes off, the price of the house goes up 10x to match the price of everything, your rent goes up alongside everything else, but the people who bought still have the same payment as before. Interest rates went up to ~18% in 1981, but that still didn't take average prices down from the $47K in 1980 back to the $17K they were in 1970. A real estate bear market is usually 10-20%, not the 3-10x that home prices go up in a high inflation environment.
My hypothesis for why it failed is because the only real value Windows provides is with legacy Windows applications, which their ARM platform did not provide (at least to a comparible level).
The F-35 is to replace some F-15Cs, the legacy Hornet (F-18 A/B/C/D) and the A-10.

The F-15Cs are all pushing 40, Hornets are 30+ and because they're used by the Navy they're used hard, the A-10 is totally obsolete, and no bomber is being replaced by the F-35.
They are unequal periods, and that's why we annualize the growth.

The periods aren't "cherry-picked." If you'd actually look at the plotted effective capital gains rate, you'd see a clear difference in tax policy in those three periods.

The "fuzzy subjective descriptors" are totally in line with the parent poster's: "long term tax policy."
I see this repeated constantly - how many cases have there been? I'm asking genuinely.
You can't just eyeball the PCB layout for a GHz frequency circuit and say "yeah that would definitely work just the same if you moved that component 2mm in this direction". It's certainly possible to use longer trace lengths, but that may come with tradeoffs.

>The only thing you can say against them is they might consume more power driving that trace

Power consumption is really important in a laptop, and Apple clearly care deeply about minimising it.

For all we know for sure, moving the memory closer to the CPU may have been part of what's enabled Apple to run higher frequency memory with acceptable (to them) power draw.
The tribalism part is easy: prosperity. Just like a fed snake is calm, so an extremely prosperous society is peaceful.

A simple example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_industry#/media/Fil...

In 1950 the US produced 80% of the world's cars. Similar story for appliances and many other products. That wasn't a normal state. So slowly it went down.

So the US is slowly reversing to its mean. Remember, robber barons, the Great Depression, the New Deal.
In that case, individuals join a collective knowing that they are deferring their viewpoints to the shareholders. And the individuals are free to leave at any time if they feel their views aren't aligned with the company view.

And what's the alternative? Who is the decision outsourced to if not the individual/company?
I'm pretty well versed in the fitness industry. Peloton, SoulCycle, Mirror value proposition never made any sense to me. With people going back to the office and gyms opening up again, people will want their normal fitness classes, gyms instead.

EDIT: apparently some of you disagree. Change my mind.
If you've got $200 and a chip in your shoulder, Oculus' arbitration clause in their user agreement ensures that if you pay $200, Oculus will pay thousands to handle the arbitration, and case law so far says they can't "combine" arbitration cases just because its convenient for them to do so.

I no longer have an oculus HMD, but Oculus no longer has any profit from me.
The Epoch Times is a Falun Gong controlled publication that has rabidly supported Trump for the past several years. It's widely known.
I guess the main point where we disagree is on the order of importance.

Until you fully grasp the inherent risk in any _unregulated_ investment scheme, you really shouldn't get started with it.
That discussion wasn't written by the employees of the linked website, why on earth would they be entitled to charge for it? It's like saying record companies ought to get royalties from people who write reviews of their music. The work, while related, is very clearly not the intellectual property of those whose work it's about. Very strange to suggest otherwise. The google case is very different, they're directly using excerpts.

Honestly don't understand why google doesn't just say "fine, we'll stop providing excerpts and only provide the link, enjoy the reduced traffic, you really scored an own goal on this one, dumbasses."
If you're running Websphere locally, exclude WS folders from anti-virus scanning. It will considerably speed up WS start up.

Complete bullshit; Google and Facebook simply need better financial support for their lobbyists in Australia. This is Australian politicians observing other democratic nations and their politicians being showered with lobbyists financial support (legal bribes) and they want theirs. That is all. Seriously. That is what is really driving this, and little more beyond publicity.
Do they have the NFC hardware iPhones do?

Maybe because of this they will add it to new iPads going forward.
Hopefully that will change soon.

What I mean by 'class' is the slew of companies now valued at 1B+. Not sure what googles valuation was in 1999? I am guessing it was still well below 1B.

I wonder about the effectiveness of “herd immunity” or at least anti-bodies and the various new mutations I hear about almost daily.

I have what I think is interesting anecdotal data regarding restaurant works. 1st I live in Miami Beach where it’s essentially been spring break for over a month.

Ocean drive has been blocked off since pretty early on in the shutdown with the city giving the restaurants pretty large swaths of the street for outdoor seating. These have restaurants have pretty much been at full capacity since the election if not a little before.

Even though they have been operating what would be full capacity meaning fully staffed, I noticed in the last week many of them now have hiring signs that all read “for all positions”. In my mind this can only mean these fully staffed and operational restaurants must have had larger outbreak amount staff recently. While I don’t know if it’s true, I’m left thinking that mass outbreaks is exactly what happened, meaning once a give restaurant staff is infected the restaurants are simply replacing them with new staff which will subject these new batches of employees to a mass outbreak and some point. It it turns out to be true, it’s essentially the people forced into these temporary jobs where they will inevitably get corona just to be discarded and rinse/repeat all because people need income they will willingly subject themselves to that kind of environment...it really feels like im watching a dystopia of the haves and have nots, and while it’s always been the case to a degree, the scale and stakes are deeply disturbing.
I don't think the original poster is talking about licensing. It is an issue, but not unique to sites like this and not relevant to the parent's concerns. What if this site just linked to the photos instead? I think that would still make people uncomfortable and is not illegal.

Context is the problem and it is unclear. In most countries you can't really prevent people from saying things about you. If someone wants to post online that they like you feet they are allowed to do so. I agree that when this is distilled to a database of people and their feet it feels a bit weird, but I struggle to find a point where it becomes not ok.

Your argument doesn't hold water - lots of systems have users without collecting their phone numbers.
No, I'm saying you're probably exposed to it anyway, so keep your fears in perspective.
> The CEO of signal messenger LLC was/is the CTO of MOB.

But in Edit 4 of the Reddit post it says

> Also, the extended whitepaper wrongly cites Moxie as chief technology officer, while he is the technical advisor.

On top of that, this whitepaper that's being passed around is a forgery with 1.5 pages of factually incorrect information.

The Wired article you link isn't even really critical, it just matter-of-factly explains the feature and it's back story.

> Signal's choice of MobileCoin is no surprise for anyone watching the cryptocurrency's development since it launched in late 2017. Marlinspike has served as a paid technical adviser for the project since its inception, and he's worked with Goldbard to design MobileCoin's mechanics with a possible future integration into apps like Signal in mind. (Marlinspike notes, however, that neither he nor Signal own any MobileCoins.)

It seems like you're trying conclusions based on lies you read 2nd or 3rd hand and didn't bother to verify. The reddit post you linked to would be received very differently depending on when you read it since it's been edited numerous times with addendums refuting earlier claims. Only by reading from beginning to end with all edits can you start to see a clear picture. Even then the picture I see is someone backpedaling a lot of false claims they made.
Where are you renting a VPS for 2.99$/mo? OVH?
Maybe unexpected for you, but not everyone agrees that more contrast is always better. I specifically choose color schemes in application I use that have less contrast as that seems better for me. There is certainly a point where contrast is objectively too high, and increases in monitor contrast and the increased use of HDR monitors make this more of an issue these days.
some apps also use fork and the copy on write behaviour deliberately to implement features. redis uses it to create its backup file (http://redis.io/topics/faq)

>> Redis background saving schema relies on the copy-on-write semantic of fork in modern operating systems: Redis forks (creates a child process) that is an exact copy of the parent. The child process dumps the DB on disk and finally exits.

This is exactly why Richard Stallman created GNU and the GPL. He might seem like an idealist or even an extremist but he's been warning us about this very thing for decades now.
So here’s my question, someone can probably explain here.

I want to do R&D work in an industrial capacity. The particular domain/industry is a very credentialized one. I have no interested in going in academia as a career (becoming a professor, etc.)

I look at industry/government roles doing that sort of thing and they want you to have prior research experience in the domain, if not flat out listing a PhD as a requirement. How do you get in that sort of role without the research experience of a PhD? I’ve heard plenty about the institutional corruption, financial sacrifices,
etc. That stuff is all fine with me in the long run, nut admittedly the time-cost is a bit intimidating.
I'm completely in favor of individuals being able to invest in startups, especially since you can go to vegas and blow $30k in a weekend, to not be able to put $30k into a startup is a crime.

But this is going to make a bubble. IT will take a couple years to shake out, but I sure hope that as a result of this the change isn't reverted.

Yes, people will invest their money poorly, but nobody could do as bad as Social Security which in my grandfathers case, returned less than %3 fair value of his money (Eg: effectively a %97 loss[1]. Slot machines only produce a %98 loss!) And nobody has the option to avoid "investing" in social security.

[1] compared to putting the money in an index fund. At the time of calculation, the indexes had just crashed with the market, so the actual results %90 of the time would have been much more in favor of individuals.
It wouldn't have mattered. The user republished a Facebook email on a non-Facebook venue (such as a public mailing list archive), thus exposing their email address. See, for instance, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/salemwhitemagic/message/89
What part of his claim was relevant to the OP's issue? Is a blanket claim of 10k healed useful? Is that out of 10k people with similar conditions to the OP or 100k drive-by vitamin injections and a new diet and a 10% success rate? How was the improvement measured? Do you care that the OP could go on some wild goose chase that isn't the best use of their resources?
Going over the 200MB plan isn't such a big deal, as long as you don't go waay over. I'm in the same boat. On average, even with the occasional overage I'll probably be spending less than I did with the $30 unlimited plan.
Funtoo is Daniel Robbins site and the article you've linked is credited to Daniel Robbins as well.

Really nice introduction to awk. I've been meaning to dig a bit deeper into it and this is straightforward and easy.
I didn't mean to get hung up on the term 'black magic' as it pertains to things that are purely evil and mysterious in nature, but rather things that are generally useful but (socially) in poor taste. Also, it feels a little dirty.

But this raises a valid point that we should address. If there are, as Matt Cutts points out, more than 100 attributes that can affect your search engine rankings, and you are purposefully attempting to manipulate a decent subset of them, then you have likely fallen from grace in that you are no longer just using 'creative marketing, accessibility and best practices'.
Obviously yoga and pilates are gentler (and thus less dramatic in their results), but for me it comes down to a question of what's sustainable for me. For whatever reason, I'm far more comfortable and excited to spend several hours a week doing pilates than weightlifting, so I think I see a better result (because I would find excuses not to do weightlifting). Not that they have to be substitutes for one another, either.
Yes, their was a link.

> A central principle of effective altruism is that all individuals are ascribed equal value, regardless of space or time. A human life in Britain is worth exactly the same as a human life in Yemen; a life now is worth just as much as a life in the past or future.

I would love to see one of these privileged man-children trying that on his wife, one day.

"Dearie, all individuals are equal; you and our two children are worth exactly as much as some whore that walked the streets of Bombay in 1859, and so that's why I have to give away 10% of my income."
Well, I have, and it's not nonsense IME. Our state currently has a candidate under felony investigation for election fraud. We have multiple counties whose decisions are made by razor-thin margins. I mean, to repeat someone else (I don't even remember who) politics is one of the few truly zero-sum games out there, with much to lose. To think that humans (particularly politicians) are above pushing the envelope to the point of breakage in such circumstances strains credibility. Your easy dismissal may strike some as being a bit naïve. If you're assuming all the bad ones get caught, I have a drug war to sell you.
It was not a symbolic act, it literally happened. People literally died. By people who are literally neo Nazis who literally think I should be murdered, who literally had zip ties and the police are now finding literal pipe bombs. I assure you I am not the one who lost perspective.
> private control over the national means of communication

Nobody was forcing the president to use twitter to communicate. Now he’ll have to find a different platform.
See what you want to see.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but Rust async/await isn't implemented with green threads, but with OS threads. Those can be pre-empted.
This is speculation, but apparently there were protesters on both the civilian entrance side as well as the promenade (where you saw the protesters scaling walls). When the protesters breached the promenade entrance, I assume there was some sort of stand down orders for the police at the civilian entrance, presumably so that the officers wouldn't get pinched.

Hence the weird dual screen of protesters breaking through windows/protesters staying within the cordons. They weren't part of the same cohort.
I get the irony of paraphrasing Mark Twain here but “Truth is definitely stranger than fiction” minus the large, omnipotent blue man and raining squid.

>I understand that you can't be responsible for people being randomly stupid, but if the stupidity is systematic and predictable, then indeed it becomes your responsibilty if you know about it and play into it for profit.

Though I tend to agree, it's a bit of a stretch to conclude that an article, due to its brevity, was intentionally written that way for the sake of profit.
ianmcstorm's two posts scream flamebait to me. I don't think this person wants a discussion.
I'm not aware of that conversation, but can I take it that it occured before Manning's incarceration then? If so that seems like convincing evidence about Mannings decision as such being free from undue influence.
I disagree. Taxes are good (I'm from Europe), and most of our governments are good as well; they give us security (police), fire safety, health insurance (emergency services and hospitals), education (most of it is public in Europe), infrastructure (roads, ...), regulation (of the food we eat, ...). Most of it is good, and I used it, and I want to use it in the future.

The bad part of the government is very small (but getting bigger). I think it needs to be eradicated politically, and I'm certain it will happen very soon (i.e. when the older generation that doesn't understand computers retires or dies).
I feel like this article is close but slightly off the mark. Just noticing from casual observation, it seems like the point can be summed up even more succinctly:

Great software engineers are (something else).
Well, apparently Manning gives a fuck. Who has also taken on the name Chelsea now.

>I also request that, starting today, you refer to me by my new name and use the feminine pronoun (except in official mail to the confinement facility).
Yes in chapter "Trouble in Paradise" It's actually divorces since he divorced both Justine Musk and Talulah Riley
Aren't engineers and other employees already committed just by the fact that they are living near the plant with their families?

What about getting that level of commitment from the owners? And if that's not practical, why not remove the profit incentive?

Maybe activities with as massive negative externalities as running nuclear plants should be run as non-profit organizations. Possibly as research institutions, with a strong anchoring in the surrounding local community.

“My draw to the mystical and the witchy is a desire to understand the world through a lens different than what is advertised,” Stone says. “We give logic and the rational so much authority because it gives a certain kind of person—a well-educated, science-focused white man—authority, and we pretend that those are separate from feelings and the body.

logic doesn't have authority because it gives a particular set of people authority. that argument doesn't make sense, though i suppose asking for a well formed logical from someone rejecting logic misses the point.

reason has authority where superstition doesn't because it produces better results. on average the person who uses reason will get more of what they want than the one who goes by gut feeling.
Ge0ffrey, any plans to release the source code on this optimization? It'd be great to have a writeup on how to actually run the tsp tests for this. It's sort of buried in the test suite at the moment.

Optaplanner is an incredibly useful, often underrated framework. Keep up the good work!
It also strikes me as an interesting question how much collateral damage will result from bubble deflation if it happens. Other events in 2000/2001 contributed (post-Y2K, 9/11) but dot-bomb also had a big effect upstream because all those startups were pumping crazy money into big IT suppliers like Sun, EMC, and Cisco. So the bubble bursting had huge ripple effects. I'm not sure a burst bubble that's mostly about outsize valuations for web startups with no business models today would have the same sort of impact.

From my experience about 8-10 years ago when the shaping hardware was not that flexible a lot of ISPs analysed the traffic and changed shaping routes dynamically which usually reset the shaping for the local ISP network segment (coaxial networks). This resulted in exactly what OP describes.

I was surprised about how a lot of stuff in networking I quickly dismissed at first was actually reality.
You mean you told the PHY to renegotiate at 10M with something like `ethtool -s <dev> speed 10`?

While stumbling around attempting to figure out `tc qdisc` a while back I found that the shaping it was applying was very synthetic, such that asking for low bitrate and high latency would mean the kernel would just wait a second or two then shunt several KB of data through at once. IIRC I was just playing with the default approaches you'd find bandied about on tutorial websites and such. (I'm still looking for a way to synthetically limit a link in ways that are physically accurate.)

Remembering that experience got me thinking - without any idea what I'm talking about, I'm wondering if the PHY layer is doing something vaguely similarly stupid-simple that does technically limit the line rate to 10Mb at full blast, but still allows throughput to very briefly burst higher than that.

I think speedtest websites try to measure both the burst rate and the line rate, so perhaps something's gotten very tangled up on both the PHY and JS sides.

Now I'm curious what model PHY (well, NIC) you're using.

FWIW, Chrome's devtools has a network rate limiter built in (network tab, dropdown that says "No throttling", open that and hit "add"... aaaand remember that it's persistent (for just the tab) until you turn it back off :) lol)

Edit: Just found https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31063184 downthread describing seeing 100Mbps through a 10Mbit hub. I think you've either found a technical bug or a, uh, "the speedtest is good so my internet must be fine" "bug" (which would be very interesting).
There aren't nearly enough startups here in Kansas City. At least, not the kind that hang out on Hacker News.
