There are two ways to increase your runway:

1. Lower expenses.

2. Increase income.

You haven't talked about your business aspirations. Maybe you will be profitable from the word of go and this is a nit. I only know what info you have posted here.

Based on what info you have posted here, I assume you will need to figure out how to make money. Being successful at a 9 to 5 job doesn't guarantee entrepreneurial success.

An expensive house will come with higher property taxes, higher insurance costs and higher maintenance costs. A larger house will tend to soak up money for more furnishings etc.

Paying cash for a house doesn't have you living Scot free in terms of housing costs. It does substantially reduce carrying costs, but doesn't eliminate them.

You are talking about immediately spending $500k on a house, $40k on car loans and incurring moving costs. This leaves you with well under $500k to live on.

You don't sound like the type who can live on a shoestring budget. A half million for a single family home is an unimaginable figure for me. If I had that kind of money right now, I would likely buy two or three buildings, renovate them, live in one and become a landlord and still have money leftover.

I've read a lot of financial articles over the years. Two thirds of lottery winners are bankrupt within 5 years. I think one reason for that is that most people are either in earning more or in consuming mode and quitting gives you vastly more time to spend money while not earning. Keeping yourself entertained on the cheap is not what they envisioned.

You can do whatever you want. It's your money and your life. I merely made a good faith effort to answer the question. If my answer is not your cup of tea, well, you didn't pay for this advice. So it's fine if it is worth to you exactly as much as you paid for it.

Best of luck in your endeavors.
I had a bad experience with a coin, and I'm hoping the SEC gets involved with investigating it.

They claim it was not an ICO, but I never got the coins I expected. They were doing quite well, and are in the top 20 on coinmarketcap. I feel cheated, and have received a lot of flak since becoming more vocal about the issue... there were even some half-joking death threats and websites created to discredit me.

They claim there was a deadline I missed. I maintain there was insufficient notice of the deadline, and that they just wanted to keep the coins themselves. Also, I'm not sure it's legal for them to keep something like that once it's paid for...

It's a big question, worth a lot of money, and I'm glad the SEC is finally getting involved in this area.
I think Theranos' case is more like: If you really really hope something will work, but you know it does not work now, is it lying to say "it works"?

Yes, it is.
I plan on being a frugal, liveaboard, solo cruiser by the time I'm 40. Those examples are a bit at the extreme though.
I would assume that’s because they hear the “I’m totally a US Citizen” claim all the time. I see you haven’t attempted to address my point of fingerprints showing a match.

As for the travel ban affecting green card holders, that was stupid but irrelevant to the point at hand. That part was reversed very quickly, I might add.
Drivers sometimes go to where the live GPS signal tells them you are instead of the pin. Likewise the pin is sometimes required to be in dumb spots (like the airport) even when there's a much more convenient spot 100 feet down the street.
Where did your ideas for these plugins, libraries, apps come from?
I’ll settle for waiting 5 min extra for a driver that doesn’t have to stop for gas.
We’re talking about whether it’s reasonable to beta test self-driving tech on public roads, and the relative risk of slowing down the advancement of self-driving technology (this is what is meant by “shifting the adoption curve to the right” — as in, seeing widespread adoption of self-driving further into the future).

I don’t think it’s a strawman at all to observe that greater regulations and restrictions on public testing will delay wide-spread self driving. Nor is it unreasonable to surmise a multi-year shift in the adoption curve could cost millions of lives.

I mean, argue that public mistrust of the technology due to sensationalization of the highly public (yet rare) failures is more likely to delay rollout worse than stricter regulations. There’s a reasonable rebuttal I could engage with!

But what I got instead was... mantis DNA?
For me it was the exact opposite, sitting on a chair programming or years made me absolutely depressed.

So I went travelling for some time, quit the IT industry and I've never felt that good.

We are all different, one's experience doesn't apply to others I guess.
Why is it the company’s responsibility to rehabilitate someone over probably-criminal action? I agree that promoting someone unstable enough to commit sabotaging changes to a company would be the wrong move. It’s not like he is forcing anyone to work there.
That’s exactly what I meant.
Here's the original source that the article cites (should have linked it instead) http://www.mondo2000.com/2018/06/18/the-inspiration-for-hype...
> Is poor self control the only reason one would be on Facebook?

Poor self control is what turns "many reasons to sign up" into "had to".
I can't speak for the GP with certainty, but maybe the source of the disappointment is that with Midori, you built a new OS from the ground up, throwing out all the accumulated cruft and doing it all in an elegant, unified way. On the other hand, Pulumi is just another layer on top of a cloud stack (or stacks) that many people see as too complex already.

I see the wisdom in it, though. Most developers these days aren't shipping their own servers off to a data center. And for those that want bare metal, there are providers that offer bare metal servers provisioned through a CRUD API, so Pulumi should be able to work with those.
Same here! IIRC for me it's due to Duke Nukem 3D's default settings. (Annoying when games "forget" to respect this option, e.g. Crysis 3 in the VTOL flying segment.)
Yes, the IBM 5150 PC. In fact, the image is the one used on the Wikipedia page for "Desktop Computer".
What do you mean by CV? I'm not familiar with those terms. Thank you.

Ethereum is the robust base layer for a whole bunch of stuff. ICOs are an ok use case for Ethereum today, but when plasma is ready (months not years), the transaction capacity will explode and fees could go to zero within a plasma chain. There will surely be a huge increase of real useful applications, including in the payment space

I think Bitcoin might be useful for storing and holding wealth, whereas Ethereum is much more active protocol, for active communication and interaction
Fascinating language, very interesting to see the nice way that it progresses as long as it "succeeds" e.g. via Wikipedia:

"In addition, the < operator returns its second argument if it succeeds, allowing things like if a < b < c, a common type of comparison that in most languages must be written as a conjunction of two inequalities like if a < b && b < c"
You have it backwards. Rising inflation does not create asset bubbles. In fact, rising inflation has the ability to deflate asset bubbles.

For example, we are arguably approaching an asset bubble right now because of a decade of low inflation and low interest rates. In a zero inflation, zero interest rate environment nobody is incentivized to hold cash(since it returns zero) or CDs thus risk assets (ie. stocks) become inflated.
Me, I've been thinking about ALRs. If this stuff is going to be available, I think everyone should have it. So this is one of those projects I am just never going to get around to, but someone else, please do it - it shouldn't be that tough to build a cheap Raspberry-Pi-ish automatic plate reader anyone can point out their window to capture every plate going by. With a network of them, everyone can know this stuff, all the time, for free.

I find that to be a frightening outcome, but I think it is a less frightening one than only certain people having access. We have to learn how to live with this tech; far better to not allow it to be a tool of selective control while we're adapting. And it can be a more honest resource - police and other official vehicles' movements will be visible to those paying for those cars, whereas anything official will have official holes.
This is pretty much what express pool does already. You sit on your thumbs for 2 minutes while the app pretends to do a search and then the car comes right to you anyway, and you pay less.
Aerial images?
I understand and agree with part of your point, but there is also benefit to showing how they are all the same.

Showing how this parallels the exact same dopamine addiction patterns as gambling, porn, and social media provides greater insight and understanding.

The addiction research (especially with gambling) is more developed and provides much needed context and background.

People are going to think oh, it's just video games, no big deal. When they understand they are behaving exactly the same as a gambler, that might trigger something in them.

From a chemical / psychology perspective the brain operates the same no matter the domain.
This seems to be the introduction of a boogeyman to cover up for failures.

Or it might be true as well.

Only time will tell.
Go see a therapist.
No I'm horribly addicted to them. I'm just honest about the reality.
You can get some working experience doing freelance gigs. You could probably find better ones than upwork.com, but otherwise, do some jobs there, do bigger and bigger ones, until you've got a couple of 1-month long gigs and some good reviews. Then go after the 1-2 year work experience ones. The lower end you go, the less onerous the requirements are, and it's possible you can build up your work experience that way.
Never seen the acronym (not really in the space) but I assume cross validation.
Interacting with people of different values is mostly a good thing. And it is certainly no bad thing when the differences are over something as trivial as which online platforms you want to use.

We can fly to space (as in height above the Earth) with a helicopter, but we need speed to remain in orbit without an engine to maintain lift.

In other words, switch off that helicopter's engine and it will fall like a brick if it doesn't have sufficient orbital speed.

> You think about improving your skills but, then, your life is basically spending 20 hours per day just for work, sleeping, and commute. You have 4 hours left for cooking, family, friends, house cleaning, improving your skills.

That's a fair bit of free time every day. That's like 6pm - 10pm every day. I could see friend and family 2 nights a week, clean one, cook and eat every night, and still have weekends free. What are you expecting? If you were really motivated to improve you could spend plenty of time on the weekends and at least a few nights a week programming.
I’m not saying he should be promoted now or before. I’m saying company culture is to blame for this or at least should be the first thing to review instead of blaming the employee immediately. what if the next person that doesn’t get promoted suicides?
Hah! I remember this was an interview question for one of my PMs that was looking to join Uber.

Without breaking NDA, it was something along the lines of "Why would Uber let customers wait longer?"

It's an interesting product problem but I felt that it would be more relevant for an economist to analyze, given that it's more of a supply/demand equilibrium challenge.
So they are operating a spacecraft. We don't know what it does but the most plausible explanation I've seen is that it's just a sensor test bed.
Yeah he’s getting desperate. He’s actually a lot like trump in that all of his personal wealth is financed by debt.

And his debt is backed by Tesla shares. If he ever gets margin called on his debt he’ll lose everything as he has to sell shares to cover his debt which will drive the price down more so he’ll have to sell more etc
Yeah, totally agreed. Blitz was great because it didn’t try to be too realistic and had a lot of silly and ridiculous stuff, which made it a lot of fun. I don’t like or watch sports, but I did have fun playing Blitz on the N64 with my friends. Games like Madden take themselves too seriously and (IMO of course) only seem to be good for actual sports fans
This could work provided there was a dedicated enough userbase in the early adopters who had the drive and dedication to create the current league. Then when/if the game gets popular enough, there should be enough people to make keeping up trivial.
A lot of companies have their own. PayAnywhere was using iPad and moved to custom replacement device around 5 yrs ago. It's funny to see this as news when many other company in this space have been doing the same for quite a long time.
In one case, the guy had somebody bring his US passport. They wouldn’t look at it. What makes you think they’re certain to dig into their files based on the word of someone who says “I’m totally a green card holder” if they won’t even look at a passport that’s brought to them?
Are we really saying that Tesla, a company building highly sensitive software, is not employing basic branch policies? How is it that these changes could have made it through a code review process and deployed to 'production'?

What I take away from this is that one malicious actor was able to single handedly deploy malicious code and that there were no processes in place to stop this. That is a far more worrying issue
I'm no Uber fanboy, but the app provides on-demand, door to door transportation service for (more or less) the entire BART market area.
Blitz knew exactly what it wanted to be: arcade football. A sort of spiritual successor to games like Mutant League.
"lea" is a fun instruction.

Going piece by piece: on x86, each register has several sizes. For instance, rax is a 64-bit register, with its lower 32-bit half being eax, its lower 16-bit half being ax, and its lower 8-bit half being al (for historical reasons). So when a register name starts with "r", it's the 64-bit variant. Therefore, "rip" is the 64-bit address of the next instruction.

The instruction "mov rsi, str[rip]" would get the 64-bit address of the next instruction, add to it a fixed offset (which the assembler and linker compute for you, as the exact offset you need to get to the data at the "str" label), load 64 bits from that address, and put the result in the "rsi" register. And that's not even the most complex addressing mode; you can get a register, add to it another register multiplied by 2, 4, or 8, add to it a constant, and use it as the memory address to load, store, or even modify in-place.

The "lea" instruction (load effective address) is a way to get directly at the power of that complex address calculation logic for your own uses. Instead of using the computed memory address to get at the memory, it's the memory address that's put in the register. Therefore, where "mov rsi, str[rip]" would read from memory, "lea rsi, str[rip]" would put in rsi the memory address the "mov" would have read from.

This also allows for a few tricks. For instance, you can use "lea" to multiply a number by five, without using the multiplier: just use a register and the same register scaled by 4 (and you can also add a constant to the result, still in a single complex instruction).
I haven’t either. I’m not saying it’s frequent, merely that the threat is there.
In any case, this is a stupid move. I would have never heard of them if it weren't for the free API.
This is because just-GPS devices need to download ephemeris data from the satellites. Phones get it from the internet, which is much much faster.
The essence of nerdiness is the elevation of the abstract at the expense of what's real, including the elevation of accomplishment in abstract domains (eg. video games) at the expense of developing social skills and progressing towards real life milestones, and the misunderstanding of social relations and social status owing to incorrect, reality-starved mental models. Often manifests itself in things like unwelcome pedantry.

As another poster (always_good) observes, there is a huge observable difference between video game addicts and substance abusers. I would not expect nerds to be substance abusers, and I would not expect substance abusers to be video game addicts, but everything about video games, in their construction of alternative realities and virtual goals and online communities, is like a glove tailored to the hand of nerd-dom.
Here's one that most people here could do: I was a college computer lab 'technician', which was like a librarian for the computer lab, and my only responsibilities were:

- Shutting down the computers after we closed

- Setting up a projector or two daily

$20/hr to sit and chill on the computer for six hours is the college nerd's wet dream.
At the moment it is not very useful in game as they are just now reaching the point where they will start introducing multi-system mechanics.

However it does provide some vision for where the game developers would like to go for the restive SC backer population so there is some value in that
Couldn't agree more. 99% of the time I feel blocked, frustrated, etc - I pick it up and read (almost at random) and it also helps reset mindset. This in particular is one of my favorite passages:

"Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present."
I think many forms of stress, if lowered, will cause productivity to go down by some metric. The issue is the metric is so hard to get right. When people get stressed they do busy work that may look productive but are not especially productive in reality.
I... disagree?
Agreed. It's too arbitrary. The pattern of addiction is the same. The method of delivery doesn't matter.

In terms of marketing and supporting affected gamers, sure. But from a medical perspective, it's as arbitrary as classifying behaviors on Monday as somehow being qualitatively different from behaviors on Tuesday.
Isn't Winning Eleven/Pro Evolution Soccer still kicking around? You're essentially right otherwise though.

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe these allegations will turn out to have some merit. On the other hand, Musk has been sounding a bit like Trump lately ... and I don't just say that because I'm not a fan of either. There's a similar "I'm here to blow up the corrupt order and everything bad that happens is because of them conspiring against me" narrative at play. For Trump it's the Deep State. For Musk it's Big Oil or the Big Three or the short sellers. (BTW it's amazing how quickly several people jumped in right here with eerily similar-sounding "there are $X billion in shorts against TSLA" responses.) If Musk did have some evidence of sabotage, hinting at it but not actually revealing it would be just about the worst thing he could do, and whatever else he is he's not that stupid. It just doesn't add up.
Stay curious and well read and ideas will come to you. Well read, to me, implies reading about advances in tech, in culture, and in environment. Reading a lot of books is great for synthesizing crossovers.
I am pretty sure they have considered it. Probably there is a legal hiccup laying here -- you either have reasonable suspicion that the material you show is copyrighted, or you acknowledge your algorithms and AI suck and you require crowd-sourcing. Kind of a lose-lose legally, and they would possibly introduce liability.

Recall the goal of Google is to avoid liability via the statement "we are pretty good and have really low false negatives", and have as few false positives as not to make the platform unusable.

Google does not care about content creators or propagation of knowledge (instructive videos) and ideas. Simple statement here. Google engineers might (at least the friends I have), but not as a whole organization.

But yeah crowd-sourcing is a good way to do a second sifting through results. I know it is being used, by Google and others, already to classify video sources.
Agreed. Here's how I put it elsewhere in this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17336374
Here you go,

Algorithm have been found on TradingView, and tested among many.

Cryptocurrencies are especially volatile that's why I thought I would need to use ATR. I have also been playing with trailing stop and take profits, so found this algorithm to combine the two.

The parameters have been manually tested, but it would make sense to make run a simulation to get the best parameters for a coin.

The whole site was created in about 6 hours, so don't judge too hard.
If you have 4 disks in RAID10 you have 4x read iops of a single disk and 2x write iops. RAID5 has at most 1x write iops (still needs a read) and 4x read iops. RAID6 is even worse. Details here: https://blog.storagecraft.com/raid-performance/

While the CPU is not a bottleneck anymore the amount of possible read/write iops still matter.

Same for SSDs but here you could probably argue that the single SSD write iops for RAID5 are good enough for most usecases.

It really depends on your workload and datasize and usage patterns...

But you can scale RAID 10 linear with more disks and you'll get more write iops - this does not work with RAID5 / RAIDZ.

For ZFS you can find some benchmark data here: https://calomel.org/zfs_raid_speed_capacity.html

The general direction should be similiar to RAID cards.
Keep learning while you are looking.

I would recommend learning Rails or Laravel developing web applications. Those jobs are pretty interesting and they are out there.

Usually when you find jobs it's through someone you know or meet so go to meet ups, contribute to an open source community. Pick a side project to build so you have some samples of your work.

Landing your first job takes work, keep at it.

Good luck.
Not touching that!
