Gravity is not radiation. The expansion of the universe does work against gravity but there are limits. Gravity decreases with distance. So if the universe is expanding fast enough (it is) it will overcome gravity. Imagine setting a bomb off between two asteroids. Use a small bomb and they move apart but eventually drift back. Gravity wins. But use a big enough bomb and they both hit escape velocity. Gravity looses. The objects are moving away from each other fast enough that the force of gravity falls away so fast that it will never turn them around let alone bring them back together.

Dark energy is the concept that while the universe is expanding, gravity wins / everything is at escape velocity, it shouldn't be expanding faster. Dark energy is the fact that the two asteroids separated by the bomb (the big bang) aren't just at escape velocity, something is causing them to accelerate.
1) "Wealth inequality is bad for social stability."

That may be true only on a raw/natural level. People also have a lot of other traits that may naturally threaten the social stability. The solution was education, and enforcing social conventions and mechanisms that lead to improved social stability and society's operation capacity. Just as unacceptable is now discriminating against sex or race, can become prohibited also the discrimination (as merely having a different attitude) towards being rich or poor.

2) "Money can generally translate to power in our world and so it creates absurdly uneven power distributions."

"Can" being he operative word here. We're talking about a possibility not a certainty. Each of us can be a potential criminal but we're not treating each others as such. We're innocent until proven otherwise. Money translating to power is just a phenomenon. Inherently it is neither good nor bad, it just is. Just as it may have bad results it can also have good ones.

3) "Generally, accumulating tremendous wealth is done on the backs of people and not on bringing them up as well."

This is the basic assumption of Communist Doctrine and it was proven wrong. Wealth accumulation does not necessarily imply exploitation of others.
You can use Mobx and get around all the manual effort of Redux.
The good scammers absolutely will not be scared off by the need to pay a penny to steal a dollar. You have to buy a cheap watch/violin/purse if you want to pass it off as an expensive one. You have to pay off in the back of the operation if you want to keep cash coming in through the front. Indeed, one of the easy ways to short-circuit human trust defenses is to make a show of trust first, such as by placing personal assets at risk. "Here, I'll trust you to hold my wallet full of $500 cash, while I drive your expensive late-model car--that's worth even more when shipped to mainland China--to go get help. You know I'm coming back, because $500 is a lot of money."

The scheme shifts the need to trust from Random Q. Hacker to the certificate-issuing authority, and that only helps if the authority is more trustworthy than the individual. If they don't put forth an effort to really dig in to those applying for certificates, they're just selling costumes for the security theater.

I trust Microsoft more than someone I have never heard of, but I don't inherently trust them more than the informal assembly of Notepad++ contributors and lead FOSS developer Don Ho. If Microsoft's code-signing certificate validation process is not capable of recognizing organizations that are not formally incorporated, and allowing them to use the name of their brand, rather than the names of their lead developers or maintainers, they are leaving a huge fraction of my installs hanging in the wind.
My personal experience with Airbnb is that they simply don't know how to do support.
Even basic issues take multiple days to resolve, and usually involve many phone calls.

HotelTonight has been awesome there. You can get a representative on live chat and resolve most issues while you're still en-route from the airport.

On one hand, I am hopeful Airbnb will be able to learn from HotelTonight, but in reality, it seems most acquisitions end up with the acquired company diffusing into nothingness :(

It is black letter law that, if you are seeking asylum, your place or method of entry are irrelevant. Asylum claims can even be offered as a defense at criminal immigration hearings.

"Since the basis of your argument is demonstrably false," indeed.
That's a nice sound bite, but isn't really true. There are many cases where we increase memory usage for faster software.

By the way what school of ethics is that from, the stance that you should enrich yourself at the cost of death and misery to everyone around you?
the omissions present, and the effects of historical politically enforced inequalities must be taken into account

I say this as a lifelong Democratic party member and voter. (Until recently.) In 2019, inequality is propagated through differences in access to effective educational environments. It's the Democratic party which opposes school vouchers and funding increased choice in education for disadvantaged neighborhoods. I know that such choice is an important issue for inner city parents. I've been approached by an inner city mother asking how she could get a coding education for her son.

As was mentioned in the Watergate scandal, always "follow the money." (Or eyeballs. Or fame. Or votes.) Who benefits from disadvantaged neighborhoods? Who benefits from encouraging large populations to refuse to assimilate into their host society?
Confirmation bias. If you listened to the same track, but at 44.1/16, and were told it was hi-res, you would have the same reaction.

This makes a lot of sense.

I travel a lot for work (100+ nights per year).

Sometimes I stay for 2+ nights, often it's just a 1-night stop over.

For 2+ nights, I almost always go with an AirBnB - more space to cook/work/think etc.

For 1 night though, AirBnBs are too much hassle. I don't want to have to choose a great location from a long list which includes some terrible options. I just want a clean bed, bathroom and decent wifi in a good location. HotelTonight gets me that in under 30s.

I'm not sure how AirBnB locations can/will be built into HotelTonight - after all HotelTonight is all about ease of use, low friction and flexibility. The very things AirBnBs are bad at (coordinating check in times etc).
Does this mean the next step is developers start building out brandless hotels that are a collection of individual investor owned rooms that are serviced and let through Airbnb. There’s already “invest in a hotel room” schemes (that are mostly fraudulent/garbage) so maybe this is an inevitability.

There's also a big piece that people who see useContext/useReducer as a replacement for Redux usually miss: server side rendering.

The Redux store lives outside of the React component tree and has a getState() method to capture the state of the store and deliver in the SSR payload. With useContext/useReducer, the state lives in the lifecycle of a top-level component. Unless you build something equivalent to Redux's store anyway, you're not going to be able to easily get a snapshot of its state out of that component. Unless, I suppose, that component itself knows to put its own payload in a <script> tag in its render() on the server only (in which case you'd still get a hydration mismatch).

> I'm sorry but you act like the insurance companies weren't the target of his scheme

They weren't; insurance company profits are limited to a percentage of reimbursed costs, so the insurers were incedental beneficiaries of the scheme.

The targets were insurance premium payers.
Are you aware of the term sea lioning?

If you were genuinely interested in the answer to your questions, you would have read the article to see that it was talking about the most recent example in NC, but that it also talks about Pennsylvania. You would be also be able to quickly find that Texas, Michigan, Ohio, Florida, Virginia, and other states are also heavily gerrymandered to the point that it "explains >1% of Republican electoral success".

The fact that you are not doing this, along with minimization and your continued line of questions, leads me to believe that you're more interested in JAQing off than actually finding answers to those questions.

Depends on the maintenance they offer and the quality of the mechanic. SF proper mechanics will be hard to poach unless they offer quite a bit more in pay or benefits. Convincing someone to drive in from Vallejo or Antioch to work in a shop in SF and not where they live will also require a bit more pay or benefits. Good idea but interested to see how they make this work.

One reason I always doubt these "shortage of tech workers" stories is that I rarely heard[0] from recruiters, either as a grad student or a postdoc in a fairly computational field.

It's a pool of smart, driven people with precarious employment and aren't getting paid very much. It should be like shooting fish in a barrel! It sometimes feels like some people imagine that we're all having tea and debating philosophy instead of scrabbling with data.

It wouldn't surprise me if Airbnb moves to the hardware space pretty soon, trusting their long time hosts with say wall-mountable boxes that speak Airbnb APIs and can facilitates key exchange, door locking/unlocking based on timed codes, and so on. Heck, build one and Airbnb will most likely buy it from you. ;)
I’ve been burned by this on both hotels.com and hoteltonight. Show up at 11pm for your $89 room, learn about the mandatory $215 resort fee for the pool and gym you didn’t use.
This is a perfect example of the hysterical, emotional responses I always see around this topic, where people turn off their reading comprehension and critical thinking skills and turn into shitty pattern-matching buzzword machines. Nobody in this thread said anything about immunity; there's no reason to assume that the hypothetical person I'm talking about has lower susceptibility precisely _because_ he's aware of the effects of advertising and takes steps to control their effects on his purchase decisions.

Can't agree more. Hiring in Silicon Valley for early-stage startups now is impossible. Total Compensation numbers for software engineering is skyrocketing and you'll never be able to compete with FAANG companies. Sad reality but expected.
That isn't how the entertainment industry works. Automation doesn't reduce the man-hours needed. The man-hours remains fixed and the quality of the product increases. Look at animation. Lots of tasks have been automated. Animators don't paint each cell individually. But the total man-hours put into a film haven't decreased. If anything, they have only increased. The average pixar film is exponentially more labor intensive than any of the great disney animations of old (fantasia et al).
> The second area is memory consistency guarantees. x64 has relatively strong guarantees, allowing simpler assembly code but at the cost of more complex memory subsystem between cores. A64 has much weaker ordering guarantees, which saves on hardware complexity, but required the programmer (and/or compiler) to insert memory fences whenever stricter ordering is required.

I'm not a fan at all of weak memory models. Especially when it results (is it caused by that? probably?) in atomics being crazy slow compared to those of state of the art x86. Especially since multicore is crucially important and will continue to become even more, and there is no SW solution to a HW providing slow atomics.

Passive investing has been proved to be one of the most effective methods in the long term. Our team has developed this tool for the crypto market, and give people who want to get crypto exposure a more data-driven approach.

On the other hand side, this tool is exploring a possibility to replace modern ETF, since with the tool you can build your own index (more flexible and transparent than a fund entity) and execute it through linking trade-only API keys -- the money never even leaves your exchange! Instead of any percentage-based fee in the fund management industry, we can turn it into a fixed cost (subscription model), since the computational cost is becoming way cheaper nowadays.

In prison? That's exactly how all hotel bookings work. I agree resort fees are a scam, but that's how it works and it's always charged directly by the property.
Yeah, I will 'change' my position on this. Satoshis in a single UTXO that are split are fungible - in your scenario you cannot identify the specific sat: either a1->a3, or a1->a4. This is kind of like 'forward fungibility'. You can however trace the value in satoshi's back from A4 to their coinbase at birth. At best, we introduce a UTXO taint percentage from previous inputs. Its this taint from other, external inputs that break backwards fungibility (due to taint).
Why don't big companies keep their computer systems up to date?
I agree it's a problem but I see no discussion of housing costs or the costs of completely redoing public transportation. Clearly the author hasn't thought this through. People drive because they can't afford to live where they ideally want to. In the US, public transportation is virtually non-existent. Without a solution to the housing and transportation problems, there's no way to get rid of cars and no one has even proposed a solution, let alone the author.
Well, if you're taking about TARP, the big banks paid everything back with interest, so the government has even made some profit from this bailout.
I think they are a good fit for C and C++. Headers allow more fine-grained control of module inter-dependency and are great for targeting different processor architectures. Java, C#, etc. don't have to deal with that to the same degree so there's no direct comparison.

Those who have used HotelTonight, can you comment on your experience?

For me, there have been several rare occasions when I needed a room at last minute, but HotelTonight was never actually cheaper than any other aggregators or booking directly with the hotel. All being equal I vastly prefer booking direct so I get my points and elite benefits. I guess they have a fancy interface, and that's... it? Maybe it's market dependent (I only tried it in NYC and SF)?

Wut?

Maybe for general purpose computers doing nothing special but its generally more cost effective to select and build your own PC for things like gaming.

Beyond that, computers are pretty robust. Its pretty hard to select parts that are incompatible assuming you get a CPU that fits the socket on the motherboard you buy and you don't go cheap on your PSU. Lots of tools (and communities) exist to make sure you're selecting parts properly (not overdoing it on the CPU when you're getting a low tier GPU for instance). I'm not sure what your OS comment implies because virtually everything will work on most widely adopted OSes (and if you're running a pretty obscure linux distro I'd assume you're familiar with driver woes).

I'm more than happy to be corrected, but if you're buying prebuilt you're likely paying for the parts and the labour involved. Unless the company is getting steep discounts on volume purchases (which they are only getting for bottom tier parts) you're not saving money by having them put it together for you.

Zim Wiki is great for this. Even has a web server built in if you want to go that route.

QOwnNotes is good, as well as many editors like Notable or Joplin.

If you want to use a wiki like dokuwiki or pmwiki, you can run a webserver on localhost like this:
php -S localhost:8001

You don't need a web server like Apache if you want to run a wiki on your local machine. All the options I've listed above store your data as plain text files and you can therefore use version control.
