If talent was forbidden from leaving NY, that would be the case.

But talent is a plane ticket away from SF or Seattle so if SF or Seattle company pays more than NY company, the talent will move there.

If there are 10 thousand jobs created in Seattle instead of NY, the talent will leave NY for Seattle. Seattle will gain 10 thousand highly paid residents and NY (and other areas) will loose them.

That's the magic of a positive feedback loop: more employers mean more employees which means more employers.

Yes, it does create a more competitive market for both jobs and people.

Programmer A has to compete with programmer B for that great job.

Company A has to compete with company B for that great programmer.

Counter-intuitively, it leads to more stronger companies and programmers in a given area.

This is great for the overall ecosystem, less great if you're a weak programmer or company.
Not sure I understand the point here, you're comparing subdomains to TLDs?
Don't you add people by phone number? i.e. username -> phone number lookup is not possible but phone number -> username is?
"This is where the real power lies. "

No, it is not. The petrodollar or seignorage as the basis for economic supremacy is conspiratorial.

The US essentially guarantees the safety of Europe because they had to given the situation after WW2.

Europeans consistently under invest on this issue largely because they know the Americans won't fail or back down.

And FYI, US bases in Europe do not guarantee any kind of petrodollar anyhow.

The response that 'America is the one that wins by protecting everyone' is factually incorrect and borderline hypocritical because it hides the fact that Europeans are absolutely not doing what they need to do to ensure integrity of their own nations.

Without US led action - the Baltic states would have already been grabbed by Russia, and Ukraine would be 100% politically controlled by Russia, if not occupied. Poland would again be 'the buffer'.

The EU has a gaping hole in this sense - they are a massive, federated economy who cannot defend themselves with some bad actors nipping at their heels.

China is very rapidly developing the ability to project hard power at least thousands of km away from it's land, at least in the S. China sea and beyond. Certainly with the objective of swallowing Taiwan, and maintaining supremacy throughout East/South Asia. For what it's worth.

The Euros need to do their part and coordinate defence of their own borders, right now they are behind in this area.
Spinach is a great source of iron. 2.7mg per 100g. Also high in protein. I think there's a reason Popeye is all about spinach.
Is this .dev only avaliable through Google Domains? WTH? Google Domains is still not available in my country.
Somewhere in the early / mid 90's VO-TECH was changed to being a dirty word. I would even argue that some computer science related programs should take a vo-tech structure.

that's a tax on the non-attendees, why should they pay for your education when it significantly raises your earning potential?
Machine learning 'causing science crisis'
I used to run a list to talk about neurological stuff with folks living with neurological stuff. We would post research articles and talk about how this impacted actual life to live with it.

You sound like you probably have low affect. People who are more emotional can make snap decisions. They can "god with their gut." People with low affect can't do that. They lack the file that says "I have a good (or bad) feeling about this."

It can help to decide to spend X amount of time on it or to set a deadline. "I need a new phone within X period of time. I will get the best phone I can reasonably find by X date." and then make your peace with the fact that most purchases won't be "perfect" decisions.
Reminder that mainstream media pieces and non profits against vaping are being funded by tobacco companies.
Utter failure for me - but that’s likely because I have the “non-geographical” RP accent, with a confusing mid-Atlantic twist.

Still, neat, and just learned a whole bunch of new words to play with.
When they talk about “putting content on gopher”, what do they mean? Gopher is basically FTP with the ability to link to other sites. Other than text blogs or videos, what sort of content would we out on there?
Interesting. What about eating fried green tomatoes? I've always been curious about that.
Be really careful. Adding guidance to a hobby rocket may classify it as a missile, and you will need to start looking into ITAR.
I paid off my student loans. If people who didn't pay off their loans get forgiveness, I should be entitled to a refund.
It’s undesirable for many reasons but could a small rocket be made to work if you made it really heavy? Of course one would be just pissing away efficiency but would a small heavy software-controlled model rocket work?
Warning: These books are kind of all over the place as far as technical prerequisites go, but they all satisify being heavier than pop-sci and lighter than a textbook. :)

Metformin requires a prescription to purchase in the United States. I'm sure there are ways to get it without, but the legal option sort of requires you to go to a doctor.
+L-R = 0

+L+R gets you a mono file (before volume reduction). +L-R cancels out. Try it out in a wave editor with a sine wave

The figures I wrote in my previous post use + as a summing operation, not to signal polarity

I discovered the process on my own, so I'm sure there are better ways to do it, I'm not a recording engineer :)

It’s not water. It’s a mix of glycerol and propylene glycol. Before you tell someone they have “no idea what [they] are talking about”, maybe learn the most basic facts about the subject.
If data collection can be sifted to discover behavior of groups...

And groups of people can have that behavior correlated to cultural and ethnic and racial factors...

Then, technically, isn't all of Silicon Valley violating the Civil Rights Acts of the 1960s? For example, let's say black males statistically swipe phones a certain length and certain time... doesn't this mean ads targeting them can be engaging in disparate impact?
When this is on facebook it's called "profiling"

but you're all too smart for that, eh ?
It isn't quite a model rocket, but there is an interesting video of someone making a single-fan drone using thrust vectoring. Not quite like a Falcon 9 but the same idea, vertical take off and landing, and shaped like a rocket.

I rather like the idea of making student debt dischargeable in bankruptcy (not retroactively obviously). Why should borrowers alone face the consequences of their bad decisions? Aren't lenders equally complicit?

I understand that educational loans are essentially unsecured loans. So fine, let them be treated like personal loans and let lenders evaluate their risk accordingly. It'll quickly put an end to letting an 18-year old go into $100k in debt for a liberal arts degree.
You can't hardly learn anything by just reading or watching it.
potentially because the taxes tend to fall on those who benefit hugely from an educated workforce. Not sure I agree with this argument, but it's worth noting the justification so that it can be discussed seriously rather than more confusing arguments.
You're showing paranoia and absurd prejudice that the only way gun owners make noise is by shooting people. Thanks was nothing resembling a threat.
Just fucking cancel all the debt already :)
What I feel like all the responses missed is that while you're right in that a password-protected private key provides a second factor... what is typically meant by 2FA is two factors checked by the server. The server has no way to know you're using a password-protected key so it shouldn't really be regarded as a factor.
Just following a thought... they raise prices. Since its the whole (unskilled labor) economy that has this issue, they all simultaneously raise prices. By definition it should be (in general) proportional to the wage increases, and if its for food or services consumed by the poor, they would be right back where they started.

But if _some_ of the customers from unskilled labor shops are not minimum wage employees, it gets a bit more interesting. Then its a bit more like a tax. But now only on consumers of said services. That could theoretically mean a relatively higher standard of living for the poor. Personally I"d rather see a general tax targeted towards something beneficial to everyone (but the poor) especially, like universal health care. Then it would at least be directly targeted at the problem, instead of... whatever the actual outcomes of economy wide minimum wage increase would be (I'd bet it would mostly benefit the slightly better off poor and be a detriment to the slightly worse off poor, who companies would probably just let go).
This guy [0] does it with regular solid fuel rocket motors. Since the engines cannot be throttled, I think he has to try and light them at just the right moment, which does not seem particularly easy...

People definitely do thrust vectoring and control systems on model rockets, like this system: https://bps.space/signal

This could theoretically be used to land vertically, though that hasn’t been achieved.
> People like the founder of Lambda School understand the problem and will be the solution.

The solution is in plain sight and has been successful in other first-world countries for decades: government funding of higher education.

People who suggest a market-based solution need to explain why none of the first-world countries that have achieved affordable, high quality higher education have used a market solution. The only way it can be achieved is through high levels of government funding.
Cool video, but what a disappointingly inaccurate title.

Spoiler alert: they spent days finding metallic dust, cleaning the dust, and sifting through the samples with a microscope. They shipped ~15-20 interesting samples to Europe where an expert with an electron microscope analyzed each sample. The expert presumably spent a lot of time analyzing each sample on his expensive equipment and found zero meteorites.

The title insinuates it's easy to find meteorites with no specialized equipment, but everything about the video contradicts this.
It was posible to launch Apollo 11 with less powerful electronics. Mechanicaly it is a bit expensive but many 'amater' clubs achive controled flight, a few to the edge of space.

My favorite one recently was expensify telling me, a corporate customer with no control over the contract, about their superbowl ad. Their marketing team was obviously super stoked to be able to spend that much money. But I as a forced user, even if I like the product, don't care at all, actually I care in inverse porportion to the number of emails I get from your product, compounded by utility. This is worse than Amazon showing me battery ads after I already have batteries.

And more amusingly they now consider the rapper and "parks and rec" actor from the commercial to be part of their brand. Not sure what that even means but they are on the login screen now. Makes no sense
The scary part for me isn't whether it works- either it does, or doesn't- but how long it's effective before some part of the brain adapts to it. Imagine it gets widely marketed, millions of people taking it, then we all learn that after 3 years it's "Flowers for Algernon".
you can't cut out phishing. IDN homoglyphs used to be an easy way to get burned. AFAIK this is now prevented at least by mainstream browsers (those for which a pw mgr plugin would exist anyway). 'rn' vs 'm' is still a multi-letter homoglyph that works and is very very difficult to identify.

I would prefer to trust the pw mgr to send password to only the recorded website, than for me to remember and pay attention no matter how tired or distracted I might be, to what that website is. 'rn' vs 'm' as noted, but also citibank.com vs cittibank.com vs citibankcorp.com, or worse for sites that may not have a .com, how am I supposed to remember it's for TLD .io vs TLD .phisher?

You can only cut out the attack vectors if you act perfectly. That's simply not dependable. All I personally need to reassure myself of this is to look at the number of bugs I write per day.
I do not see this so much creepy as scary. Big companies have the resources to stalk everyone with an open opinion, and the technology is just getting cheaper.

I want to be able to comment on-line without having tens, hundreds or thousands of companies creating profiles of my personality.

People need to get back their position in politics, economics and the public space. If every conversation is exploited to sell more products, how can we as a society have honest open conversations in the public space?

Sadly, even in the private space (WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.) there is also data collection and commercialization of people private lives.

Yes, it is public. But, no, it is not acceptable to transform everything public in a product.
> In principle I agree, but in practice, it seems like private lenders are empirically doing a bad job evaluating risk. Rates for private loans are so high they can only be explained by a high default rate, even among "low-risk" demographics. These rates are very high even for students that we'd view as a low credit risk (e.g. studying CS and not music therapy). I think this shows the private market is doing a poor job evaluating risk.

Or that they know the risk, but also know people have to borrow so see a chance to profit more from it.
Stanford Prison Experiment Response Bias, Are the Conclusions Valid?
As a member of the first group, I agree with you. I really don't like the idea of subsidizing what I consider other people's bad decisions. I was able to make financially reasonable decisions, which often involved sacrifice, and chose to focus on a viable career. I don't want to spend my hard earned money supporting people who didn't do that.

I did not come from money and came from a pretty awful environment so I know this is a possible outcome for most people.
It was disheartening how much time I spent tracking this down. I generally use Firefox, but since the web is bifurcated, I need to be able to access some sites with Chrome.
You may be interested in following Tom Stanton on YouTube. He built a radio controlled SpaceX model a few months ago.[1] It was barely controllable, and wasn't designed with actual propulsion engines, but still very cool.

As others have been commenting, it's a completely different ballgame if you want to use propulsion engines and still be able to land it. At that point, you're just building a smaller version of the real SpaceX rockets, and that sounds much more difficult (not to discourage anyone from trying!).

Would you consider a woodworking project DIY if they used a tablesaw? What about a router? Metalworking tools require skill and experience to use. DIY has never meant doing something with the absolute minimum tooling or expense, although that subset of DIY projects is interesting and worthwhille.

That said, if you go back through this channel’s archives, you’ll find they actually built the majority of the tools they’re using here.

Oh, I remember what it was:

On newer laptops, you typically have to press a function key to activate f4 (by default). On a thinkpad carbon/dell xps 13 those keys are a bit finicky, especially if used to a mac key layout.

In previous windows versions you could press the dedicated windows button then press "u" and the shutdown dialog would open.

I can't speak to anything legal, that's its own topic.

But for all the model rockets I've seen, their mass ratios are quite small, and their motors don't allow for throttling. They blow their load as fast as they can and then drift down.

Software is not the biggest problem, you need a hobby quality throttling and gimbaling rocket motor, and I'm not sure if they even exist.
It's an 8 hour day with a lunch break. 11am-8pm ET, If you want people, you can always go to the local coffeeshop, library etc.

I was on IRC since the time EFnet had about 2000 users during the day (1993 or so). I left when it had turned into this:

> one or two crazy people can completely control and dominate a group.

op-wars, annoying admins abusing their own, often academic servers, is what destroyed IRC for me. Reddit is the same for groups where various political/ideological views collide, only same-interest groups are worthwhile.

MMOGs possibly made IRC unattractive for many people too...
I agree, but I don't think it should be retroactive i.e. only new loans are covered. Banks will start pricing them like personal loans if they're dischargeable in bankruptcy, so it would not be fair that people with more favorable terms obtained earlier are able to take advantage.
Yes because not everyone understands x.y.z and y.x are not owned by same person.
Identity Theft Protection Guide: Keep Your Family Safe
"China has barely any capacity to protect power much further than it's coastal waters."

Literally China is grabbing international territory 1000's of Km of their coast.

China is rapidly developing the ability to project hard power beyond it's borders, most obviously in the S. China Sea wherein they are trying to declare otherwise recognized 'international waters' as their own, and trying to thwart others from passage.

They'll have almost 100 submarines soon (a shockingly large fleet), for example.

They are going to try to project their power within East/South Asia for their own gain, this news is not controversial at least not to the many other nations already feeling the tensions and buying up weapons.

See: 'String of Pearls' [1]

I highly recommend Marine Engineering at a maritime academy if mechanically or mathematically -inclined. You get a four-year engineering degree and a license from the US Coast Guard as an Engineering Officer.

You can easily pay off your student loans very quickly, you get to see the world, and if you do it right, you have little to no expenses while you're sailing and can bank that money for when you quit.

For most people though, I don't recommend making it a long-term career though. It can be dangerous, and I always felt like my life was on pause while many of my friends were getting married, having kids, etc. (And I worked with a lot of older men who did not have good family/wife situations.)

One can certainly get a desk job with a Marine Engineering degree, but one leaves so much on the table if they do.
Correlation, causation. That link provides nothing to say that vaping leads to smoking apart from the say-so of their analyst. It’s equally possible that their smoking leads to vaping.

Yeah, force of habit. Never heard of jackfruit until HN where we get an article about them every few months as people discover them.

Two other fruits I think more Americans should try are guyaba/guava and guanabana. Both are somewhat annoying to eat due to the seeds, but they have some unique flavors. Those are my two go-to icecream flavors.

Unfortunately the lack of demand makes them expensive in the US where I was astounded. They almost give them away where I live in Mexico.

Same with dragon fruit. A single fruit was $8 in Texas. Meanwhile I get them from the pitaya guy who rolls down my street 4x for <$1.
Won't it backfire in some way ? Banks and house sellers rising their prices because these debt free people now can get better credit ?
