> People who act like they know a thing or two tend to get immediately jumped on, which I found quite refreshing. "But will a gamma squeeze happen?' is usually met with "stfu and go read a book rather than drop terms you don't understand."

Maybe this is how it was 6 million subscribers ago. Based on my (extensive) reading of WSB the past few weeks, this is no longer true.

I've read just about every WSB post (and its comments) about GME with over ~1000 upvotes. People asking when the gamma squeeze is going to happen were definitely not being told to read a book, they were being told things like "this Friday!" And people acting like they had intimate knowledge of this fact weren't exactly downvoted either...
of course, but if you buy without margin the balance in your account should already be enough to cover the collateral.
I studied english extracurricular and was far ahead of school curriculum - we were plabbing to emigrate so it was part of preparation. The school English teacher felt that it was undermining her authority. She kept coming up with random reasons to discipline me and mark me down.

Eventually this cultinated in a row between my parents, the tracher and the headmaster.

Because mu parents had my back, she stopped creating dramad but I never got the grades i was meant to.
Sweden has had private schools for decades now though, and results are improving since the last reform. Also I don't think private schools is a big deal, good students avoid them since they all have really bad reputation. Nobody will think "Wow, you went to $private_school?" instead it is more like "You went to that school huh, are you an idiot?". There are a few exceptions, but only for the few schools that were private before the reforms this article talks about and they take in so few students that it wouldn't show up in statistics.
No, I reccomend changing schools as their lunch allowance isn't enough to cover even a full meal at McDonalds. If they just got cash the recommendation would be to get something from a supermarket, but it's locked to restasurants so single burgers is likely an upper limit outside of the cointracted restaurants that, as stated, sometimes denies service.

I wonder what gives you the idea that hot dogs is much better than McD, as that's about the limit of what 55 SEK will pay for in terms of street food.
I know a relatively new lawyer that moved from a top law firm in NYC to a tech firm on the west coast and got a huge increase in pay, especially per hour worked.
I would suggest if in case you have financial backup and have an adequate funds with health insurance, try to go for 100% to your MVP. I'm doing that currently.

It would be hard, exhaustive to switch from day job to your MVP. One of them will definitely suffer. Your mind and body will constantly thinking about your MVP while you will be in your day job.

Multitasking is good but for a shorter time. It shouldn't be considered for long term. Read this article, https://www.verywellmind.com/multitasking-2795003. And lot of research has been done in that domain.

Again, if you don't have adequate funds to run at-least for a year or two, do not leave your day job.
I agree that CRE isn't t-bills; I point out only that there is a spectrum of liquidity, and that on it, small businesses are to the left of antique furniture and the works of second-tier postminimalist painters. I originally wrote "commercial bonds" instead of treasuries, but realized quickly that someone on HN would write 6 grafs on how the bond markets are opaque, unfair, and intensely susceptible to gamesmanship.
Thanks for sharing. You got a lot of things right.

What you didn't get right was my example. I'm not talking about a situation where Microsoft is pricing a $100 product at $80. That does not result in wealth destruction, as you explained in detail. (It does result in less $$$ in Microsoft's bank account, though.)

My example was specifically about an Xbox that people were only willing to pay $80 for, and that Microsoft spent $100 to create. (Obviously, $100/$80 are illustrative, not actual figures.)

I will continue to assert that spending $100 to create a product that no one else values at more than $80 does, in fact, destroy global wealth. And that that is a Bad Thing, not "wise". You're free to continue to tell people the opposite.
The government doesn't know about anything in that sense. They rely on everyone else to make a stink. We decry lobbyists, but the EFF is a lobbying organization. Joining them helps to pass the legislation. Nothing could help them understand it.
It's up in the air.

That's not fair. HN played a big part too.
I thought better of HN. Shame.

There are many trends for using domains similar to what you would desire: get<product> being the best, and <product>app being one of the other choices.

I have very bad experiences with finding an app's site, if it models <product>app. Maybe it's just bad SEO on their part, but I imagine that it'd be an awful hassle for any normal user who don't know the conventions.

Then it struck me that <use>product would be a very interesting domain that makes much more sense than <product>app. It also mirrors the imperative <get>, although it may not be as popular and known to users - yet.

I think it's a shame they didn't secure a regular <product>.com domain for such a great product - but, on the other hand, I'm sure all the press will forgive them (hell, they're trending on Twitter, and 80% of my social media digest today was about the bloody thing).

I've registered usewordlens.com, usewordlens.net, and usewordlens.org and will be happy to hand it over or point it to a domain of their choice (if someone tells me how the hell to do it using name.com, because I'm a complete idiot in that regard. I guess I have to mess with some DNS).
I did support for a hospital a while back. The favored ( by faculty, not IT ) strategy there was a sticky note on the back of an ID badge. My guess would be that this is common practice anywhere where people carry ID badges.
Forget you ever knew anything about them. There's some leniency against the company seeking money for the time before they first told you about the patents if you didn't know there was a patent. Especially if the patents are vague.

Also: how long until they expire?

Um, how on earth do you deal with the 10GB delete? You can't store it in RAM, since there may not be enough, especially if you want 32 bit support. Store it on disk? You can't store it in the original file, since you have no flexibility over its contents after a save: a hex editor must write the bytes asked for, unlike a word processor which controls the file format. Ok, maybe we store it in some other file, call it "temp". That almost works, but what if the point was to save disk space? "Please restart the editor"? And if the power goes out one hour later, the user finds out at the next boot that clearing out a 10 gig file did not save any disk space?

I'm out of ideas. What does Hex Fiend do?
The Xbox can also be damaged by hammers, but could be designed with a more ruggedized case that could withstand that attack. If someone smashed a kid's Xbox on Christmas with a hammer I wouldn't blame the design of the console, I'd blame the creep with the hammer.

Seriously, you might not like MS, proprietary software, their business models, or lots of other things about them, but don't go blaming them for some cretins attacking their systems in a failed ploy to make a buck.

The Lizard script kiddies had a pretty horrible business model too, FWIW, break into a bunch of systems across the internet to DDoS Xbox/PSN servers, ruin a bunch of people's Christmas, and use the media coverage to sell their DDoS as a service scheme.
I interviewed for a financial analyst role with a film studio (not one of the majors) some five years ago. They had a predictive model for their movies which was built in Excel with VB macros and which had exhausted the dimensional limits of pre-2007 Excel. I'm not sure where you draw the line as far as what constitutes "artistic attributes" but it definitely included fields for such things as the star power of the actors and directors. It surely included extensive statistical analysis, but all ran inside a "Visicalc-inspired tool."

Part of their pitch was that they were looking for someone with an investment banking background (i.e. me) because they operated their production studio the same way you operate a private equity fund. I ended up declining the next interview because "like a private equity fund" didn't seem to have the same cachet as working at an actual fund, which I then went on to never do.
So, maybe this is more useful?

Unlike more primitive version control systems, git repositories are not linear, they already support branching, and are thus best visualised as trees in their own right. Branches thus become trees of trees. To visualise this, it’s simplest to think of the state of your repository as a point in a high-dimensional ‘code-space’, in which branches are represented as n-dimensional membranes, mapping the spatial loci of successive commits onto the projected manifold of each cloned repository.

Or $12k+ per week at 50% utilization. 75% utilization sounds a bit stressful.

For that matter, $8k+ per week at 50% utilization is still $165k at the same fudge factor for taxes & overhead. That's already well beyond my threshold for "I've increased this variable to the point that further increases are nice but not a primary motivator, and I'd rather that further optimization focus on quality of life as the primary variable."

No one got up one morning and said, "You know what? We really should be conducting all of our business in English." It was the result of many years, and many different accidents of history that led to English having its current position in the world. World War II, the growth of American industry, the dominant position that the US has played in research and business, and the growth of the computer industry in the US all led to English being adopted world-wide. And you're not going to change that now.

Every language has its own trade-offs. It's totally true that English has crazy spelling, a huge vocabulary, and lots of ambiguous syntax. But it uses a simple alphabet, and doesn't have a centralized body making decisions about its direction, which also gives it flexibility.

So yes, maybe Spanish or German would have been a better choice. But that implies that there was a "choice" to be made. There wasn't.

It's definitely true that this has resulted in native English speakers having advantages over other people. But unless we decide to use an artificial language that is native to no one, there will always be some native-speaking group with an advantage. Fortunately, the diversity and flexibility of English are such that even if someone has an accent or stilted syntax, they're still (largely) accepted, and are able to get their points across.

You could install a webasto diesel fueled stand-heater.

They're cheap and you can plumb them right into the main tank, a bus would likely require several of them. If you insulate a vehicle besides exhaust fume collection you'll have to be very wary of condensation as well.

My experience is limited to converting a Fiat Ducato delivery van into a small RV:

http://pics.ww.com/v/jacques/cars/ducato/

On something the size of the bus in this article you could stuff the roof full of solar panels and install an inverter + a battery pack, then use that to drive a regular AC. A bit over the top maybe but with that much roof surface it is an interesting option.
Fission goes the opposite way. Heavier elements than iron release energy.

I think the inside of a star is not perfectly clear-cut. Various elements get created and cycle, with only the energetically-favorable ones accumulating. It's not altogether unlike chemistry.

What little I know of this comes from wikipedia, but I think there are other ways to synthesize elements apart from fission and fusion. Sometimes they simply catch a neutron, and the decay of a particle produces a different element.
Your conclusion may be correct but it is not the one provided by the abstract:

"Uncertain participants reported thinking about the men the most, and this increased their attraction toward the men."
Whether or not it has been proven, I find the idea of people asking whether or not we have free will in a determined universe rather hilarious.
What's wrong with a newbie script? Seems like people like it based on the comments here. Sometimes the most liked things are pretty simple.
As the article makes clear, the primary reason for extraterrestrial colonization is to increase the chances of human survival in case of a major catastrophe that would cause extinction on Earth - like an asteroid strike or nuclear war. The author acknowledges that other places in the solar system are not as suited to human life as Earth. It is clear that he sees space colonies as a backup plan for the species, as opposed to a way to escape this planet's problems.
kidding aside, this is a waste of time and a grand opportunity to mention the LUDIC FALLACY
Absolutely. I signed up for one and I was excited at possibly getting a free laptop. I then told my friend about it and in the process of explaining to her what this laptop was about (why she couldn't install anything on it) I realized I didn't actually want the thing.
Yeah I'm pretty sure it happens to me.
I love listening to Gervais. He strikes me as a down to earth normal guy with a good head on his shoulders. Of course it's hard to know in a world where celebrities work hard to create a positive image. But he probably is genuine because it's much more acceptable (and profitable) to be an actor/comedian/writer with religious beliefs.
Have you somehow got Flash working correctly or don't they use it?

I've never seen a Linux system running Flash as "smoothly" as Windows do. That's on Arch, Fedora and Ubuntu on fairly modern computers with decent specs. 32bit seems to be better than 64bit but it's still slow and buggy.
Riot virtual DOM is a simple expression -> DOM node map. It's much different than what React has.

Riot cannot make random sub-tree replacements. It's best for situations where the tag HTML structure is fixed (no tag name changes for example).

Riot virtual DOM minimizes the work and makes less DOM manipulations than React on each update cycle.

Loops and conditionals can change the structure.

If this is true (which I think it is), then aren't all these institutional investors going to get crushed when it crashes? And won't it circle even faster downward if they try to sell their positions once it starts doing so?

How are they even buying all this Bitcoin? Are they unwittingly assisting in the Tether prints?
I'm not the creator of NRG, but I feel like there's a bit of a "you know it when you see it"[1] thing going on when it comes to classifying a company's various marketing channels into "NRG" vs "not-NRG".

One way to think about it: "If you stopped investing in [CHANNEL X] would all the benefits from it disappear tomorrow?"

In that sense I would definitely classify blogs and content as organic.

Another way to look at it, building on this intent from the original article: [2]

> The rationale behind the Natural Rate of Growth is our conviction that PLG businesses have an organic, self-service growth engine at their core because they’re built to attract the end user. These companies solve for end user pain, make it easy to get started, deliver value before the paywall and hire sales last.

With that in mind, it absolutely makes sense to include writing, how-tos and docs in NRG.

Dressing appropriately does not mean "dressing up". It means dressing slightly above what is generally accepted as the normal dress code for the role your interviewing for, and the culture of the company. This is what makes it so hard, if it was just about putting a suit on everyone could do it.

If you're completely unsure, just call the hiring manager and ask. "What's the dress code at company X?", "How do people in role X normally dress at your company?". No one will be mad at you for making an effort and trying fit into the culture.
It's not wrongthink, it's consensus building in a world where humans are fuzzy association machines.

Can anyone comment on if the m1 MacBook Air can handle 4K external display well enough for daily use? I know it handles my ultra wide 1440p display, but I wanted to confirm before I purchased a 4K display.

wow! did you come up with this?
It's unfortunate you are incorrect, statistically speaking.

In general giving people a stable, appropriate calorie diet is the best way to increase IQ over a population. Poverty has a whole lot to do with that.

Next, after you lift people out of poverty you still have the education problem. Uneducated parents don't have educated kids, statistically speaking. The first few years of life, before kids are ever sent to school define a person's learning capacity hugely. Babies that have working parents and have less personal care, less emotional closeness, and less exposure to a wide range of language are going to be disadvantaged to those kids that do.

> ... the sites are filled to overflowing with HEAVY liberal bias ...

This very subjective and probably different person to person especially given AI driven filters and the ability to choose who to follow or friend on these sites.

When I check one of the sites you mentioned, I see almost exclusively voices from the American right-wing. On the other one, it's significantly more moderate but with some opposing viewpoints from either extreme thrown in. It all depends on who someone friends or follows and what the filter chooses to show.

Of course, this ignores what "liberal bias" is, which is a subjective determination that varies according to the bias of whomever makes such a determination.

Although, this is a distraction from the question raised early in this thread. of whether some coordination happened behind the scenes or if these bans are a result of distinct actions in response to the same circumstances.
I agree. Same goes for Reddit too, or the big subreddits atleast.
There is no such thing as a completely non-political government "professional" in a position of leadership where their decisions have the potential to impact people's lives in different ways.

For example, Fauci's decision to prioritize the value of human life, including elderly life, over the economy is one I happen to agree with ... but will not deny that there is a political dimension, as well as a moral one, in taking such a position too.
>> Their legal cases are rejected.

They had 60+ chances to make a case, and couldn't...

>> We're not even listening to them

>> We're not debating anymore.

I'm not listening anymore because there IS no debate. 'Debate' is an exchange of ideas. This is basically a 'harangue' - and personally, I'm tired of it. No one has a 'right' to force people to listen to them.

>> We just assume we're right.

No, I assume they're wrong as the logic doesn't hold up. There is a difference. Personally, I think the election basically boiled down to 'rural' vs 'urban', but I'm sure there are other views. I can't force people to believe my views 'cuz I said so!' anymore then Trump can force me to believe him, 'cuz he said so!'

>> Wouldn't you do the same?

I don't recall doing the same when Bernie was written off by DNC, and there actually WAS evidence the DNC tilted things against him.

Regarding the drone strike app thing. While most of the american left is against drone strikes they still don't mind voting for people who support them. (in comparison to the american right that I doubt would care about the drone strikes in the first place). Point is that both democrat and republican governments would support the drone strike app removal.

It's not a failed coup. It's just not a coup at all.

The new site is much better because it’s so slow and user hostile you stop browsing Reddit entirely.
But also, the fact that it was impractical is itself a metaphor -- it turns out many of the things they thought would be cool and futuristic were actually impractical when you get to the details.
There are plenty of agencies under the president who need to be as independent as possible of day-to-day control by politicians. Especially in law enforcement.

Not great if you consider democracy to the be a universally good thing of which more is always better. But it really isn't true. The majority can do good or bad things.

Bitcoin holders are of course having a field day with this, especially after Yellen's comments. However, this is a false equivalency. For regular retail banking customers your deposits have FDIC protection, not a thing you can get with BTC. You can use Coinbase, which does offer insurance, but then you're back under a centralized system with the same single point of failure issues.
