No more like a broker. When you buy stocks through your broker, all the broker does is to pass on your order to the exchange, and to report when it was executed. The broker doesn’t take any risk, other than you not making a payment after you gave the buy order.

If the broker was a market maker, he would keep an inventory of that stock and your order would be filled by the broker directly. Who would then report and clear the transaction on the exchange.

I'm not sure what the point of the Reagan debt reference is, Obama's eight years by far holds the record for the greatest public debt accumulation in US history, and that was accomplished just through sheer spending irresponsibility.

The US is heading toward trillion dollar deficits no matter. There's absolutely nothing that can stop that, unless someone wants to dramatically slash entitlements - which is never going to happen. You can't raise taxes on the rich enough to find $1 trillion in new revenue. To plug the hole with tax revenue, it'll be necessary to dramatically raise taxes on everyone in the top 50% income wise, matching what other advanced welfare states do in taxing the middle class a lot more by necessity to pay for entitlements.

The annual tax cut cost is going to be about $150 billion per year, roughly $1.5 trillion over the next ten years, assuming mediocre revenue gains from it. The eight Obama years added about $9 trillion in new public debt, and the US got absolutely nothing from that vast fiscal destruction (other than further eroded infrastructure, a mostly horrible healthcare plan, a trillion dollars in new student debt, zero gain in the median American net worth figure, and the greatest wealth gains in US history by the rich).

You can't actually think $150 billion per year matters any longer. It's dramatically beyond game over for the US fiscally. Nobody even dares to bring up the idea of paying down the debt now. It's the Japan debt scenario full steam ahead, $30 trillion in public debt by 2027 no matter what happens. That means permanently low Fed rates, because the US will never be able to afford the interest on $30+ trillion otherwise.

I'll take the 20% corporate income tax rate in exchange for the $150 billion per year cost (plus the big jump in the standard deduction); the $150 billion thrown onto the burning fiscal picture that started with the Bush years, got dramatically worse with the Obama years, and is going to continue through the Trump years, is simply meaningless at this point.

You mean these things weren't happening, or they were but they didn't bug you? :P

I use Coda 2. It does too much with its built-in terminal and MySQL client and Git client and FTP client and manuals, but it's mostly possible to just use it as a code editor and ignore the rest. (The one thing that it doesn't have built in that I wish it did is a GDB debugger.) It was pretty crashy right after High Sierra was released, but the developers eventually ironed those out.
Perhaps from this tidbit where the politics were explicitly mentioned in the article:

> Resmini’s statement comes just a few months after Discord took action against a number of nefarious ALT-RIGHT servers. One of the largest servers, Centipede Central, became heavily monitored by Discord administrators and in the past few months, underwent its own implosion.

And more importantly:

> “The team has confirmed that they are aware of Centipede Central and will take action IF they find CC is in violation of their terms of service and/or community guidelines”

In other words, it sounds like the politics of that group alone was probably enough to justify keeping them under close surveillance. It wasn't necessarily just responding to "raiding and spamming" once it happened.
FWIW, he didn't specify the type of mask. Something like a non-invasive ventilator is far closer to "a mask that would breathe for me while I slept" than CPAP. I used one for a time due to central sleep apnea - I'd go for 10s of seconds at a time without even _attempting_ to breathe (as opposed to obstructive apnea, where you attempt to breath but struggle due to the airway collapsing).

Unfortunately it didn't help me that much (even with it, I would still not breathe properly which was reflected in my O2 sat. IIRC) and it aggravated other health issues, so I stopped using it after 4-6 months (which, when one of the first things I read after diagnosis was along the lines of "Rarely, CSA may result in sudden death", isn't a choice I made lightly!).

The points make it easy to build in the service fee. Public transit here maintains an “account balance” in USD, you set the max and when your account dips below what is required for fare it refills to that max.

Steam does some something similar with an account balance but I don't think it refills. I believe a lot of businesses have a similar concept. I think you can maintain an account balance at Amazon (and probably other retailers) too.
"the merge" may or may not happen in our lifetimes. current AI tech has a ceiling, even if we havent hit it yet. that ceiling may be AGI, it may not, who knows

The bigger question, if we want to make human life better, is: should we worry about AGI more than other things?

One can argue that if people want to help their fellow humans, theyd get the most value for their time, say, volunteering with the many 8th graders in east palo alto who can't even spell their first name, rather than trying to prevent an AI apocalypse that they cant even predict with any degree of accuracy

I think it is good and important that people develop AI responsibly and think about these things, but does this topic really deserve more public attention than the many other threats and challenges that humanity faces?

> good coding conventions in C++ will get you 90% of the way there

For those that need it, SaferCPlusPlus conventions will get you even further.

> Basically in C++ I think an of old-style pointers/refs as Rust-like "borrowed" references.

They key safety feature of Rust references is that they have "scope lifetime" and their target is guaranteed to be alive for the duration of that scope lifetime. You can use SaferCPlusPlus' "scope pointers"[1] to achieve this in C++.

Scope pointers can be explicitly converted to raw pointers, so they can be used with existing "legacy" functions. But you get even more benefit when you change your function interfaces to support scope pointers directly[2]. For example, it would prevent the function from (inappropriately) putting a copy of the scope pointer into "long term storage" (like Rust does).

[1] shameless plug: https://github.com/duneroadrunner/SaferCPlusPlus#scope-point...

[2] https://github.com/duneroadrunner/SaferCPlusPlus#safely-pass...
I don't think it's lazy to pass around smart pointers. Obviously you need to understand the consequences but in many cases like pipelines it's a pragmatic solution that saves a lot of code.
I also like using mitmproxy combined with proxychains4 for monitoring outgoing requests of apps I'm building, especially when using a third-party library to use a service (like Azure services). It's also good for seeing what any application is doing.

With the fee change, if you have a budget of, say, $15 to spend on creators on Patreon, it makes sense to split that into as few pledges as possible to minimize the number of times you pay the fees.
To be honest, the system in this paper doesn't really match the Rust system at all. It isn't based on regions and all borrows occur upon function calls, so it's pretty similar to pre-Cyclone alias-tracking features.

For embedded Ada programs, this simpler form is probably sufficient. The main improvement you'd get from Cyclone-style nested regions is being able to type-check functions that produce outputs that are themselves borrowed pointers, either by returning them or storing them in a data structure passed as an argument. In embedded code you're much less likely to have dynamic data structures whose lifetimes are anchored to a given stack frame or control-flow region, so this isn't as useful as it is for the C++11ish coding style encouraged by Rust.
I don't personally have any issue with packages being stolen. But I suspect that, for people who live in a neighborhood where the occasional lifted package that was sitting in plain sight is an issue (but rampant theft is not), leaving a plastic tub with a small "packages here" label on the porch or wherever is probably a pretty reasonable thing to do.
> Basically, I don't accept what you and most people accept - that humans have free will, we could have made a choice X instead of Y, etc, etc.

My argument does not rely on free will at all. (If you notice, I have made the argument that the same thing would apply to AIs, and I am certainly not arguing that AIs have free will.)

My argument simply relies on two assumptions: first, that the agent in question sorta-rationally responds to incentives, and second, that the agent in question believes that punishment applied to other, similar agents after certain actions also could apply to them, if they take the same action.

If a human believes that they can make a better outcome themselves by doing action A instead of not doing action A, they will likely do so. Concretely, if an employee believes that they will cause a better outcome for the company and get rewarded for it personally by taking an action, with little risk, they will likely do so. This is borne out by evidence almost as plenteous as evidence that humans require food to live; it needs no controlled study. This happens all the time and essentially all productivity under capitalism requires this to hold up.

If a human believes that action A brings significant risk to themselves, they will probably refrain from doing so. And the convincing threat of prison time does actually cause humans to refrain from actions. fThis is also borne out by everyday life; there are plenty of outright illegal things you can do to make your company significantly more profitable, like poisoning your competitors, that happen extremely rarely.

So I don't understand why you are questioning "Does punishment as deterrent work?" from first principles, as if it is not settled. Do you disagree with the arguments above? I have to say that if you do, I feel like I am arguing with someone who disagrees that food is required for humans to live. I certainly can defend that position logically, I would just feel ridiculous doing so.

Nothing about changing incentives requires free will - it is a simple if statement to say, if risk outweighs reward, refrain, else proceed. You do not need any free will to potentially act contrary to the if statement. I would think if you believe people don't have free will, it makes this argument easier.

(In terms of morality, I am the sort of Christian who believes that every prisoner should be set free and that Christ has redeemed every last human, regardless of what they did, and that if every last murderer and rapist went to heaven, I would join them in singing praises because I wouldn't deserve to be there one bit more than they would. If you go just a week or two back in my comments on this site, you'll find me asking if I am morally/religiously compelled to work for the end of prisons. But I am not making a moral argument in this thread, and I hope it's clear that the argument I'm making is wildly divorced from my morality - I am trying to acknowledge that it is rational to imprison people as punishment, even as I believe that it is immoral to do so.)

> MO we should ditch tabs, bookmarks and history. They all implement the same thing - a way to reach a place you've visited before. And they all require to be micromanaged in specific ways. The browser already knows which sites I've visited recently, and all the backtracking and branching I did. This information could be visualized as tree so that I can backtrack to any node and resume browsing on a new branch. The browser should also be doing memory management so that revisiting recent site is as fast as switching to another tab. And while we are at it, why not allow full text search across recently visited sites?

Yes! This! Essentially, something like Emacs's undo-tree, but representing the tree in a more compact form, using some variant of D3 or Graphviz's tree layout algorithm.

They are not running a separate Blockchain and equating their system with how Blockchain works is quite misleading. I work in finance and use Bloomberg's system daily.

I've embraced the yo-yo, personally, but in my experiments with keto it usually takes me 2x to 3x the time length of the diet to put the weight back on as I revert to my prior eating habits. The longest I've maintained the diet for was about 3.5 months, though over the past year it's averaged closer to 1-2 months at a time. I suspect if I did it for longer or did it more extremely on the calorie-counting side my yo-yo peak would decrease -- I have a friend who went 5 months and lost 100 pounds, now he yo-yos too but his peak before he goes again is only +40 pounds instead of +100. The peak is similar to a baseline, in that if you do nothing different you'll probably remain there. (Of course that's the standard prediction if you look at it from a pure calories in / out model.)
