If I aim a gun and pull the trigger, the results are not the byproduct of chance, excepting that in some sense everything is.

This was consciously aiming a gun at an explicitly-named remote target, ricocheting the bullet off an unprecedentedly-reasonable number of explicitly-chosen elements, and hitting the target.

I don't know about 7-Zip specifically, but AV vendors use plenty of FOSS code. Here's some findings just from Google's P0 showing that Symantec[1], Bitdefender[2], Microsoft[3] and Avast[4] all use unrar in their products. It wouldn't be far-fetched to assume some might use 7-Zip for other archive formats.

What I've heard (and I'm only citing unverified word of mouth) is that E.Coli is within the leaf itself, it comes from the water it used. You cannot wash it off or clean it. An infected head of lettuce is garbage.
I literally said I support rezoning my block and support someone building a 4-6 story building next to my house.
It is telling though, that even someone like Aaronson, who presumably understands Kolomogorov complexity a 1000 times better than I ever will, doesn't have a more rigorous way of establishing the "look, no fudgin here" criterion.
I don't think it has anything to do with guilt. Housing costs affect people across the entire income spectrum. those paid the least have few if no options other than to win the housing lottery. Those paid the most, will also pay the most for housing too: because those jobs are only in places where houses are more than 2 million a piece. It' a problem for everyone who doesn't own a house yet.
>Instead of shipping heads of lettuce or large carrot sticks that people wash, we chop them and mix them up in processing, then package them in plastic bags. In that process, Marler said, “The bacteria has a chance to grow. And a lot of people get sick.”

This confirms what I had always been suspicious of. Those prepackaged veggies sitting in plastic bags are just a few degrees of temperature away from being perfect bacterial breeding grounds. Don't ever buy that crap.
That probably a good way to follow in future...
Not sure what is left to explain.

In the ways that a system of teleporters/portals is different from a system of train stations, the former are entirely superior to the latter; if the former can't solve a problem neither can the latter. The idea is: no transportation solution (even a perfect, immediate one) provides a supply of anything; it can only connect a market with a demand to a market with a supply.

You would need to argue that on the other side of a hypothetical transportation investment that there is a supply, or that it's easier to create a supply in those market(s).
So now you have currency in another country. As long as your country doesn't allow you to repatriate, you still have nothing. It's the same as holding US dollars in a US bank while living in another country that regulates getting the money out (except worse because fewer people will accept BTC vs. USD). As long as you cannot spend it, it is worthless.
People don't eat more veggies, because (1) The people forget about them and then they go bad, thus instilling a mental stigma about veggies, and (2) food deserts.

So it's not just the lettuce heads that get contaminated, it's how they are processed. This is reminiscent of the issues with large meat packing plants.

I've often wondered what effect that processing has on lettuce. Personally I prefer to buy a head and clean it myself because it tends to last a lot longer than a bag that's usually full of consendate and mashed onto the shelves by store employees, bruising half the contents...
Wait, if it's +0.1 atm helium (for example), what happens if it develops a slight leak, a leak from which helium molecules can escape but air molecules cannot? once the pressure reaches equilibrium, there would be no reason for additional helium to escape, and because air can't enter.... then what?
Prop 13 to me seems to be at the root of all these problems.

I'm almost finished with Picketty's Capital in the 21st Century, and Prop 13 seems to be a godsend for rentiers seeking the inequality of 1900-1910.

Overturning Prop 13 isn't realistic since voters are selfish. Prop 13 has GOT to be the biggest reason behind NIMBY-ism. If the little old lady in the 3 bedroom $2M house had to pay $20K a year in taxes, she'd have sold a long time ago. But because of Prop 13, her taxes are likely less than $1K a year.

But the sick thing about Prop 13 is that it applies to landlords. You know why LA is filled with all these single-story rental properties from the 70s in prime locations? Because the taxes hardly budge, so they're paying about $1 per year per square foot in taxes. Even if they sold for the huge premium, it'd be impossible to re-invest that money into something with a higher rate of return.

It also applies to businesses. It's why you see a lot of car washes making < $1M/year sitting on land worth $20M.

We could potentially modify Prop 13 to eliminate the benefits for rental properties and have the benefits only apply to the first $1M of real estate. That'd only affect the top 5%, and only marginally.

But it could eliminate a lot of NIMBYism, I think.
MDR? Use english please!

Back on topic, different SICs[1] get different interchange rates from Visa, Mastercard and the like. Multiple companies have sued to lower certain SICs interchange rates[2]. Amazon's SIC has changed over time, and it could easily be argued that they fit into multiple SICs.

Its up to the sales org that handles them to appropriately code their SIC, Amazon could easily have switched to processing with a new platform for Amazon Fresh, and slowly moved most of their volume over without negative repercussions from Visa/Mastercard.

Cabbage? But not lettuce? You can shred the lettuce all the same.

So, track each lettuce head on the blockchain? (I'm joking guys)
Best thing a tech company can do to solve CA housing crisis is let workers who desire to do so work remotely from other states without taking a pay cut (beyond actual reduction in productivity, if any). Market forces will take care of the rest.

The effect will be many-fold:

- Increase in employee satisfaction and quality of life. Those who leave will have a much lower cost of living and can enjoy the extra money. Those who stay here will be here because it's worth the money to them.

- Lower real estate costs for employer.

- Reduction in employment and resulting housing demand in California.

- Increase in tech populations in other areas leading to networking effects and economies of scale, making them more attractive to work at, further reducing housing demand in CA.

- Better distribution of tech talent and benefits in the country, reducing anti-tech resentment and political backlash.

- Loss of (tens of?) thousands of dollars in income and sales tax revenue for CA, per employee, imposing a real fiscal cost for not implementing housing supply friendly policies, and creating proper political incentives.

- Loss of demand for local businesses and services, leading to a negative feedback loop to reduce local opposition to increasing housing supply.

- Opportunities for tech and other businesses that embrace and help facilitate remote work.

- Tech companies being closer to average people, aware and solving their real world problems instead of SF techies' scooter and/or food delivery needs.

Stuffing more employees into the Bay Area and throwing a few bucks to YIMBY is not a serious solution, it's a fig leaf.

I might have expected the first-order effect to be that helium drives run cooler, and therefore last longer. Most failure mode rates have an eᵏᵀ term, doubling every 10-15 °C.

I'm only one datapoint, but every AirBnB I've stayed in merely reduced my expenses while traveling. It didn't encourage me to change my habits while I was there. If anything, it just kept more money in my pocket for discretionary spending once I got home.
The cheapest shit a homeless person might prefer to living in a car or a tent is probably more like $5000-10000. Could build a million of those for $10B. Plumbed.

Ever seen a cottage? The people living next to my parents lived in one, no more than 500 sq.ft. Happily raised two kids in it; happily lived in it until their deaths. On a nice lot on a nice street, far from cheap shit. Maybe the favela ( been reading Sterling?) is in your head.
Many of them are, actually. See: https://www.spur.org/

A fair number of tech companies donate to SPUR, which does policy analysis/writing, advocacy, etc., including Dropbox, Salesforce, Netflix, and others.

That said, I was disappointed to see last year that Google apparently joined about the month I did (as opposed to, say, a decade ago) and were donating at some small level (sub-50k/year, Microsoft was in a higher donation bracket ffs). The amount of fighting Google is willing to do in Mountain View while ignoring the rest of the bay astounds me.

> Our current restrictive policies disproportionately hurt poorer, younger, and (frequently) non-white[4] people.

There is massive opposition within the poorer, non-white bay area community to the political group that Stripe is funding here. CA YIMBY [EDIT: correction, should read YIMBY Action] literally shouted down minority activists who were opposed to a housing bill at a recent protest. The LA Times just published a good overview of this issue yesterday. The title: "A major California housing bill failed after opposition from the low-income residents it aimed to help. Here's how it went wrong"[1]

Money quote: "'The YIMBY movement has a white privilege problem,' said Anya Lawler, a lobbyist with the Western Center on Law & Poverty, a legal advocacy group and adversary of SB 827. 'I don't think they recognize it. They don't understand poverty. They don't understand what that's like, who our clients really are and what their lived experience is.'"

Concessions to protect low-income residents were added to the failed bill only after substantial protest from the community. Let's hope next time around, instead of just claiming to act on behalf on poorer and non-white people, they actually try listening to them.

>cash out and live like a king

That's increasingly the problem in CA. Current residents have spent so much on housing that their only chance for a decent retirement is of their home values keep going up. They've paid so much that they haven't contributed nearly enough to their retirement accounts.

You can hardly blame a NIMBY if nearly 100% of their net worth is tied up in their home value and falling home values will result in them having 0 retirement and no ability to sell their home and move because they are so far underwater.
>> aspirin wouldn’t pass

>We have a number of drugs in the same class that are as or more effective with less frequent adverse effects, and the same price to market. It is also one of the leading causes of toxic ODs presenting to the ED. Aspirin shouldn’t pass as an over the counter Anywhere, and wouldn’t but for historical inertia. Don’t confuse familiarity with safety.

Could you add some more data to back up your statements? For example, you state "It is also one of the leading causes of toxic ODs presenting to the ED"

>...During the latter part of the 20th century, the number of poisonings from salicylates declined, mainly because of the increased popularity of other over-the-counter analgesics such as paracetamol (acetaminophen). Fifty-two deaths involving single-ingredient aspirin were reported in the United States in 2000; however, in all but three of these cases, the reason for the ingestion of lethal doses was intentional—predominantly suicidal.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salicylate_poisoning

Considering that literally thousands of tons of aspirin are consumed every year, this safety record likely compares well with other drugs.

As a comparison, the most commonly used alternative to aspirin is acetaminophen and that is certainly much more dangerous:

>...Many over-the-counter and prescription-only medications contain paracetamol. Because of its wide availability paired with comparably high toxicity, (compared to ibuprofen and aspirin) there is a much higher potential for overdose.[88] Paracetamol toxicity is one of the most common causes of poisoning worldwide.[22] In the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand, paracetamol is the most common cause of drug overdoses.[17][89][90] Additionally, in both the United States and the United Kingdom it is the most common cause of acute liver failure.[91][7]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracetamol_poisoning

>...A site from the far-right, unknown-anywhere-but-Fox-news

I agree with you that efficacy testing of potential new drugs is important, but adding a statement with pejorative labelling like this feels somewhat like you are simply trying to poison the well.
I think it's clear that the author is simply referring to the odds of finding this program by trying random programs one after the other, not making any philosophical claims about whether the Universe is deterministic.
> The CEO role is Chief Ivory Tower Visionary.

No, the CEO role is turning abstract vision into concrete strategy and communicating that strategy especially to investoes, because money people always want to hear things from the horse's mouth. It's a good thing for the CEO to be the visionary rather than channel someone else's vision, if they can do the rest of the job, but they can't be stuck in an ivory tower and think that addressing the path from present reality to distant vision is beneath their dignity.

Plenty of people do quit - Amazon's fulfillment centers have legendarily poor retention. It's one of the reasons Amazon offers stocks to full time employees as compensation for paying below market rates, since they expect almost no one to last the two years it will take to vest. Either they'll quit, or miss quota too often or empty their UPT (or have their UPT retroactively taken, which I've heard happens) and then get fired.

But bear in mind that the risk taken by quitting is losing one's livelihood and (in the US) healthcare, and not quickly finding other work in a difficult market. Just because some people find it a rational decision to prefer to put up with Amazon's poor conditions and wages, doesn't mean Amazon is reasonable for treating its employees the way it does.

Or... rinse it before you eat it.

Just because it's already chopped and in a bag doesn't mean it suddenly doesn't need rinsing.

If I recall, not rinsing pre-chopped lettuce was one of the things pointed out to Chipotle after their recent debacle, that may have helped avoid making customers sick.

That's something I think about when buying mushrooms as well; there's the chopped mushrooms, and then there's the whole mushrooms, and the former always looks kind of worse for ware so to speak, as if the chopping process transmits bacteria from the blades to the mushrooms.

I buy the whole mushrooms for that reason and simply because they're cheaper.
> What's the alternative? As others have pointed out the results as they stand aren't that good and, as you point out, other search engines have their own incentives to push stuff to the top.

That's the million dollar question isn't it? If I had an answer, I'd have a product ;)

That doesn't change the fact though that I don't trust Reddit any further than I can throw it. It's fun for memes, but beyond that it's been proven to having been manipulated multiple times now.

> Since the scoring system can be customized I think we can eventually figure out a way to deal with bots but it will always be done in a way that has to treat all domains equally. I think it would be appropriate to have our scoring system regularly audited (along with the rest of the code) to ensure that we treat all domains equally and that no modifications are being made to the rest of the code in regards to privacy.

Yea, I hope. I'm not trying to knock your product at all btw. If you read my first comment, I even said I love the idea of a voting based search, but I just can't trust the public to do the voting. If it was based on a peer network (brothers friend, brother's friend's friend, etc), maybe that would be better. Obviously though there are challenges with that sort of method, I'm not saying it's perfect or even good - it was just an idea after 30s of thinking haha.

> EDIT: BTW, I am not suggesting that the voting system is set in stone. If there is a better way then I'd love to hear it! I do understand the drawbacks to the users voting and I hope I am not coming across as being completely inflexible on this point. I just haven't come up with a better alternative and haven't gotten much in terms of concrete suggestions.

You haven't gotten concrete suggestions because I think no one knows the answer. Information manipulation is, in my opinion, the biggest problem facing humanity right now. Literally. So it's no surprised that our ideas to prevent manipulation at scale are lacking.

There are three files in the ZIP for PilOS with x86_64 assembly, totaling about 2000 lines, dedicated to the boot and lower-level details, as usual.

From a quick look I think that two of the files (the big ones) are mutually exclusive, so it may really be closer to about 1000 lines of x86_64 assembly to get it minimally working.
There are whoishiring posts every month. And you can filter inside with remote.

How can CA YIMBY "allow" people to spew things? Are you honestly interested an assessment of YIMBY, or just looking for ways to discount them?

If a neighborhood group has official communications that run counter to what a member says, do you go with what the member says or the group itself?

Or, more pertinently, if a member of a tenants advocacy group lies about core YIMBY beliefs, does that discredit the entire group? No, of course not.

Then again, this may just be the political naïveté of people that don't typically get into politics. Optics are not something that YIMBYs have really cared about, caring more for pragmatism. However, in California politics, optics seems to be more important than action or results. This leads to a lot of duplicitousness.
