Interesting idea. Does sailing a boat typically allow for one to be immersed in coding for longer periods at a time (a few hours)? Or would you just park it while you work?
Fundamentals. This is actually quite hard because it's relative. I've seen 'experts' do analyses like "Facebook was valued at $100 per user, this company is better than Facebook, therefore this company should be valued at $300 per user."

It sometimes helps to go at it from an untrained perspective and make your own estimates. Look at assets, cash flow, cash in the bank. Opportunities, market size. Yes, this does take a lot of work, but you are literally being an investor here. It's good to be an expert in the field you're investing in.

Draw a line. Find out where the spikes in the data are coming from: are they catalysts or just hype? I've seen some odd things, like when a certain party wins the election, shares of the prime minister's relatives go up.

The line would rarely go "hockey stick" when these things happen. Often they're more of an S-Curve. If they're undervalued, it's just correcting, meaning that the real line is a lot steeper.

Don't look too closely at profits. A lot of companies reinvest in themselves, partly to minimize tax. Companies that offer high dividends are often committed to slow growth.
In California, you are legally allowed to share your salary. I would just not accept a job where they ask my salary, if I can create a big enough market where I can make that decision.
The one and only surefire way to make money hand over fist in the food business is authentic American Southern-style fried chicken & BBQ in China, made by actual Americans living there. You could start an empire rivaling KFC if you do it right.
The textual definition is slightly off: there are stupid people who cause no loss to anyone but themselves†. Think of stupid people doing stupid things you can see on gifs and youtube where their attempt at doing something ranges from extremely unlikely to completely impossible to achieve in a very obvious way combined with a strong likeliness that Things Go Wrong in a very immediate and physical way. So the value on the Y axis (loss to other) can be zero.

I posit a better definition of stupidity that includes a lack of foresight of "obvious"†† damaging consequences would be more appropriate. A corollary would be Einstein's possibly apocryphal definition of insanity.

† OK unless the guy lives in the most remote area, there will probably be emergency services involved.

†† What's obvious to one may not be obvious to another, and it's a common mistake to conflate lack of knowledge with lack of foresight. We should strive to be kind in our expectations, yet the fact remains that some people are profoundly stupid to the point of being survivally challenged.
Actually this one is my favourite, possibly because it was the first book I read from Ishiguro. It's been maybe fifteen years, but in my mind it is a kafkian rollercoaster, filled with really memorable characters. I still remember a lot of them, and hold them dearly. You'll need patience, but it's worth the effort.

Sorry to be cheap, but as much as I hate Disqus it seems dumb to lock myself into a paid plan at Remarkbox when I have no income from the project? I'd rather build it myself, as dumb as that sounds...

Looks great though and I definitely would like a more minimal version of Disqus – nice work!

Their not claiming non disclosure. Just the right to kick you off their service (out of their club) if they don’t like what you do. “We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.” That is, in fact, a legally protected right in the United States. A constitutional right by some arguments.

See, for example, the Boy Scouts vs a long list of gays, atheists, and girls, where this was affirmed numerous times by the Supreme Court.
Not even close. There's a tiny cabal of regionally and racially well connected people, most of them working in the same company, who do make the (mostly wrong) decisions.
I like the app for the classifieds, and event posts and updates directly from the city and police department. However there are a lot of older generation posters that complain about everything and anything. Lately in my neighborhood the older generation have been outraged about the new recycling bins and rules. How dare they expect us to sort our own garbage! Actually they are outraged about any change...
This is especially a problem when you try looking for new extensions. It's not sufficient to just look at the reviews or popularity since often times the users themselves have no idea their browsing history is being captured and sold. Also it seems that Google is in no hurry to fix this issue as even having discovered and reported malicious extensions they remain up (see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14889619).

From the client side one mitigation might be to have all extensions denied network access by default and have the user manually whitelist those in a little-snitch like manner. There is an experimental flag for something similar to this called "User consent for extension scripts." From Google's side the best thing would be to run all extensions in a sandbox like they supposedly do for Android apps and monitor its activity to see if it does anything suspicious like record browsing history, redirect pages, or call out to sketchy URLs.

The article definitely doesn't 'prove' in any way that education is worth it. You can probably find much more closely applicable data for your specific claim.
The abuse of the words "equal" and "unequal" is a common phenomenon.

Ok. I don't wanna be 'that guy' but... I feel I must point out that all Windows Server SKUs come with IIS, and a optional component of IIS is the SMTP server service which supports 'smarthost' forwarding. It takes about 5 minutes to install and configure.

I have never met a stupid person. Unwise, thoughtless, ignorant, uncouth, vain, angry - yes. Stupid no. I have never met someone I believed I could not make understand something, if I articulated it in the right way. I never met someone who, if confronted with a wrong action was intellectually incapable of understanding what was wrong: emotionally yes, but not intellectually.

I think stupid is just an inaccurate term and being pejorative brings little to any understanding of a situation or a person.

Refind is giving away 1B coins in the name of Relevancy
It is important to realise that there is a big difference between the value to the individual and the value to society of a university degree. Companies use tertiary education as a proxy for IQ and conscientiousness (or willingness to tolerate bullshit to be less charitable).

Not that there is no value in university, but I think in many cases the large financial and opportunity cost does not lead to any great improvement in useful skills.
Wow, thanks a lot for this !

I am doing something somewhat related.

I built a Jeep Wrangler into a house on wheels [1], and am driving around Africa for two years.

I am freelancing for Magazines, and earning money through my website and social presence. I have not done any coding on this trip, mostly becuase I find it hard to get remote work that meets my flexibility needs - i.e. weeks off-grid and only occasional checkins/calls.

Last time I drove Alaska to Argentina, doing more-or-less the same thing.

An easy way to describe Matrix is as a decentralised database of realtime conversations, which are signed and replicated over the participating servers. The main novelty over XMPP MUCs is that conversations are replicated equally over the servers so there's no single point of control - it's really more a decentralised than federated model. And yes, it has (beta) E2E crypto too - albeit trying to take the best aspects of Signal (the double ratchet) whilst also making it usable for sharing conversation history when desired between devices, and actually clearly tracking which devices are participating in the conversation. The "slow evolution" criticism of federation/decentralisation is empirically fairly bogus, as long as you structure the layers of the protocol so they can all evolve independently without cross-cutting concerns.

You're right that people get killed based on metadata, which is why it's in our sights in the longer term. But our focus is first on features that make the system actually compete effectively with its centralised counterparts (encrypted decentralised Slack or WhatsApp style use cases), otherwise in practice nobody's seriously going to use it. And secondarily on protecting metadata, especially given there's stuff like Ricochet & Briar that you can use today if you're doing something where you really need the metadata protection today.
Sorry, I'll elaborate.

Draw a line on what you think they're worth. I detailed this in the sibling comment. If they're lower than this line, they're undervalued.

But don't watch prices. Watch the news. I say don't buy them too early because stock prices can take years to correct, especially for low profile companies.

A good catalyst: Company wins a project, key board member becomes more powerful (maybe his daddy became deputy prime minister), new market opens up for them, rival dies, acquisitions and mergers.

Bad catalysts: Scandals, accidents, some prominent individual attacks their credibility on media.

I find business news to be the best source of catalysts.

There are tools used to follow and even highlight which stocks are going up. The traders will be faster than you unless you do it full time. But you can still be faster than the rest of world.

Academic journals are not a good starting point for pushing your findings, unless you are already very familiar with the field (publications, style of writing, etc). It does not suffice to have a new idea. And very easily you can get discouraged, for no good reason.
If you've spoken to Doblin I presume you've read this https://www.maps.org/resources/students/181-so-you-want-to-b...

A PhD by publication still needs a supervisor so I'd suggest contacting all the academics involved in psychedelic research and asking. For obvious reasons there aren't very many of them, so it shouldn't take long! I imagine you'll have to face a bunch of issues with legality and subjectivity that most researchers don't, but they will be the best people to ask.

They don't when the page wants to load 8 different external scripts, 5 different tracking beacons, 13 things automatically blocked by uBlock Origin, and then even when you enable all scripts it still just says "Yes they do."
Sarcasm would be extremely useful.
Its also similar to "farmer palmer" attitude in Viz "get of moi land" and you don't get that stereotype (farmers living of the CAP subsidies) without some truth.

>.. i really see no reason anyone should forego it..

>Sure, there is the off chance you might do better without that degree because you can start earlier, but statistically that chance is slim and the benefits of good education will serve you all your life.

Well, yes, when you assume all that it would be hard to see why anyone will forego it, however, not everyone is as convinced that e.g. 'the benefits of good education will serve you all your life' and whatever else you do instead during those 4+ years wont.
OSX by default doesn't have scrollbars either.

I had changed the setting though, so it was obvious to me that there is more content. But I can easily imagine people not scrolling down and assuming there is no content.

Four Things That Will Make UK Consumers Want Your Credit Card
We've been doing the same for a few years now. Funny.. these days I just want to go to Berlin and stay for a while! That's because I have wound up missing the buzz of a tech scene.

I lived 5 years in SF & then the Hacker Dojo was born just as I was leaving. Since then, while sitting in my van, I just dream of sitting at the hacker dojo!

Some of it is a great lifestyle. Tips on cheap data: Morocco, Portugal, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Spain (not as cheap). ($1/GB) Somehow almost everyone else is ridiculously expensive. More like $10-20 / GB.

The US now has Verizon unlimited. Something like 80 a month for unlimited data!? It's tempting to put the camper on a boat & go back.

Also, if you are going to work out of a van, you are going to need consistent power. Please do not use a generator! Stick about 4 flexible solar panels on the roof. They can be attached with good 3m zip tie mounts & zip ties. One hole drilled through the roof. Get a lithium (lifepo4) battery & a controller from electrodacus.

I grew up in the high-end restaurant business. It is a nightmare. If you have friends or family that dream of doing this, it is your duty to prevent them.

The only people who succeed in this, in the long term, are what I call the Artists.

The Artists have no choice. Restaurants and food are the only thing they can do. They live or die there. Success of their own or a lifetime of working in a subordinate position in the same business.

> Semicolons are really better though, because they aren't used as a decimal separator unlike commas in most countries.

If you're going to separate values with semicolons--which is perfectly reasonable--I feel like you probably shouldn't do that with a format called Comma Separated Values.

The best AIs right now would beat above average folks from the public. But as you start approaching anyone who resembles a professional, bots rapidly turn into practice dummies.

The biggest problems I'm personally facing at the moment are midgame macro with imperfect information -- how many Gateways do I need to be producing from before I can safely take a third base or transition to endgame tech? -- and engaging Terran mech armies. It's very hard to know when or how to engage a Terran mech army, and you usually only get one chance to get it right. Dithering results in bleeding units you can't afford to lose.

The biggest problem in general is that rules-based approaches are asymptoticly approaching the limit of their capabilities. Either of the problems I've described are big undertakings but only scratch the surface of what PurpleWave needs to advance. Machine learning is the way forward. But so far real time strategy games have proved remarkably impenetrable.

Consider that professional players often place their initial buildings to provide Scarab-proof escape routes for their workers against Reaver drops that arrive ten minutes later. Such placements are only effective if you know to react to Reaver drops by funneling your workers through them to glitch the Scarabs. How are you going to let your bot learn that on its own? There's a lot of work to do.

I’ll take the lady friend to the local (nice) pub and buy us both a steak & chips, half a pint (to drink while we wait for the food), and a bottle of house Shiraz (to drink with), and it’ll be $110.

I’m lucky that I can do that, because I work in IT, but every time I do I think “holy shit, $110 for a pub meal”. That’s just what it costs.

It's an excerpt from what Marie Curie wrote in the book:

https://www.amazon.com/Pierre-Curie-Autobiographical-Notes-M...

"Pierre Curie: With Autobiographical Notes by Marie Curie"

It was published in 1923 by The Macmillan Company, and I've read somewhere that Marie Curie never allowed any new releases afterwards.

No but it helps against their claim that the friend should have drop off to become the next Bill Gate.

But then again, when you're with people who say that, the right move is to get the hell away.
Wow that is great! We are in a camper now 3 years & one of the biggest annoyances is that you must stick to the paved or flat dirt roads. What this means in practice is that there are often plenty of French retirees around in their campers too.

Then again, if we could go off road, I think it would mean that we'd be hanging out with more Germans. Germans love massive 4x4, ex-military campers.
I've met a few people living in vans/converted trucks when I've been in France. There's quite a few countries around with great regulations that let you park up in lots of places, e.g. in France there are regular places you can stay along the major roads for free, usually with decent facilities. I met a girl there this year who had converted a truck into a mobile home. It even had window boxes for her plants!

Unfortunately it's much more awkward in the UK. So much of this country is private land and everyone's so afraid of gypsies that you're basically prevented from setting up a van nearly anywhere.

I work remotely and I've started experiencing leg problems from sitting too much. So I'm now trying to set the trend of "wood-working"; where I go for a walk to the woods nearby, sit on a rock by the river, and do some coding. It might catch on ;)
there's no need to scroll, all the noscript errors fit on one page.
Maybe you are right, maybe not. I just think those stories where people worship their nomad life represent not the entire truth.

It's not because nomad life is so great, often it's because they struggled because--again--life in developed areas is tough and so they opted for the easier way.

Moreover, those have still some home base in an developed country, a back door where they can always settle again, so it's not really nomad, it's just a long vacation labeled as something adventurous.

For us from developed countries, it's so easy to take our backpack and travel dozens of countries and just spent a fraction of what we would spent in NY, London or Berlin. You know it's really nothing special or something people should admire. Everyone from a developed country can do this. But nobody from not so developed countries could and want to do this. I personally would miss a goal and again the challenge. I can just buy a ticket in 5 minutes and go, find some remote work and live for peanuts. Where is the problem, everyone can do this There is no risk and no goal. And because your FB friends got tired of all your useless and boring nomad posts you need to write now public blog posts and spam social news sites telling people that what you do is great justifying your goal-less endeavour to yourself.

So, another popular reason of being a 'nomad' might be: I am struggling with the high competition in my current environment, want to save money or spent a fraction in an underdeveloped country and live like a king. But not like I want to know who I am (maybe they know it afterwards but I think it's rather unrelated).
I would imaging this is kind of intentional?
