As described it is an inferior product on both sides of the transaction to ones which are extremely available in the status quo, unless you propose simultaneously making the interest rate the best one in the country, and so you wouldn’t be able to get it off the ground.

If you did make the interest rate attractive enough to get folks whose job is shopping for the best interest rate, you’re in for serious bad news any time the bank falls behind competitively risked interest rates. It will see massive outflow of deposits, be unable to pay them, and have to liquidate its mortgages, potentially at a severe discount (they’re illiquid by nature, right, and may have declined in fundamental value due to e.g. interest rate changes in the interim).

Now your bank is failing and, as soon as you do the responsible think and report insolvency or inability to satisfy withdraws, instant bank run.

It's honestly quite depressing to imagine just how much money is left on the table regarding manga. The demand for translations has lead to massive amounts of illegal sharing of digital/digitalized copies and there's even somewhat of a living to be made of unofficial translations (though I know many translate out of self interest).

I'm hoping that there'll eventually be a Steam for manga. I know several companies are trying to become that, but they've all failed to catch on with both consumers and producers.
Maybe you have to go a bit lower. Does the typical consumer use case need even 2TB?

I don't understand the US's relationship with China. The above seems to possibly suggest some mild cold war scenario?
For this reason I don't consider sync services to be a "backup". Because both sides always want to "sync" with each other, it's way too easy for a fuckup on your local machine to wipe the remote copy, or the remote server to wipe your local copy.
This looks great. I've tried many of the other terminal options on Windows (ConEmu, Cmdr, Hyper, etc) and none have been great and always found myself resorting back to the plain old command prompt.

Yep! Scala's pattern matching is so far ahead of Kotlin's, vis a vis destructuring, that it strains the conscience to say Kotlin has pattern matching at all. FWIW I find both to be enjoyable languages in which to work.

Either you'll translate the contents of the menu anyway and take care of this or you won't and having a universal icon to access an English only menu doesn't help.
Not true.

Go to the official web page of any airliner that isn't the 737 and you will see passenger comfort as an attribute of the plane... But Boeing doesn't have anything good to say about the comfort of the 737.

For one thing, the 737-class plane is at a local minimum of seat width. If you make the plane just a little smaller, you can fit five across and get a little more width in economy. Airlines can't do anything to take that away. (And don't need to, because A220 class planes have lower cost per seat mile)

Also thanks to the limitations of 1967 aircraft design, the 737 has a circular cross section. "Widebody comfort" is really about having more height, not more width.

A220-class planes have better industrial design that fits the human body better -- the 737 is like the old American boat cars that were huge on the outside but small on the inside, the A220 is like the Japanese cars that were small on the outside and big on the inside.

A220-class planes also have improved comfort because of fly-by-wire riding out turbulence and with modern geared turbofans they are an order of magnitude quieter than 737-class planes.

More comfort, not just for the passenger, but for people on the ground who hear them go overhead.

You might find it hard to believe, but if you ride in an A220-class plane you will be a believer. That's why Boeing has tried so hard to make sure you won't get the chance to fly in one.

Anyone figured out how to use Altair with VSCode to plot in a separate window ? If I use matplotlib, I can use the show() method to plot in a separate window. I would love to have a similar thing for Altair. I'm fine if there's a working method in Spyder as an alternative.
You tell me, how many?

Because to my knowledge, there's just one asynchronous IO interface Linux and it's Linux-AIO as used via io_setup()/io_submit()/io_getevents()/io_destroy() w/O_DIRECT.

There's glibc support for POSIX AIO, but that's not some kernel feature, it's just POSIX support and not especially great.

I'm inclined to suspect you're confusing asynchronous IO with the myriad file descriptor event multiplexing interfaces: select()/poll()/epoll_wait(), which are orthogonal to this.
I mean it seems hard to be very pop-culture when your country is pretty well known for the whole "go with the norms/traditions" stuff,
Neovim backend for Qt Creator
So they painstakingly built a Linux syscall ABI into the Windows NT kernel (including tricky stuff like fork()). Then they just abandon that approach and run the Linux kernel in a VM/or something like user mode Linux/coLinux ( http://www.colinux.org/ ). I feel sorry for all the wasted work in WSL1.
AWS AZs are really separate from each other (separate power and network)

Quoting from the docs [1]:

Each AZ can be multiple data centers (typically 3), and at full scale can be hundreds of thousands of servers. They are fully isolated partitions of the AWS Global Infrastructure. With their own power infrastructure, the AZs are physically separated by a meaningful distance, many kilometers, from any other AZ, although all are within 100 km (60 miles of each other).

All AZs are interconnected with high-bandwidth, low-latency networking, over fully redundant, dedicated metro fiber providing high-throughput, low-latency networking between AZs. The network performance is sufficient to accomplish synchronous replication between AZs.

Yes it's a multiplier scheme and if you squint just right, it's pretty much a ponzi too. But it isn't a pedantic way of restating "lend out".

Discussion of the issue is often fraught with accusations of conspiracy theory. Austrian economists (widely regarded as kooky by the establishment) have a bunch of books related to these issues perhaps the best of which is Rothbard.

The link doesn't explain much. The only argument that Linus has on kqueue is that is overengineered. Then it goes on a long multi message rant in how having multiple queues is insane.

Luckily, in the end epoll ended up supporting multiple queues at least.

I do believe that ET is good though.

Look as though the polydiketoenamines themselves are also quite easy to make;

This doesn't tend to be an issue because the controller can automatically rewrite the cells as needed. What is an issue is if you leave the SSD unpowered for a few months and the cells leak enough charge to be unreadable.
Reproducibility as a Vehicle for Engineering Best Practices
It runs your own `init.vim` inside Qt Creator, all your plugins (except the ones that work with highlight or other stuff that Qt Creator handles itself) will work.
Couldn't green threads in principle be implemented the same way as your async proposal? The compiler could infer which functions need to be marked async. To support separate compilation it might need to compile two versions of each function, an async one and a normal one. You'd have exactly what you have in your proposal, except you never have to write async fn. You could still have blocking & non-blocking IO. It wouldn't totally unify green threads with OS threads, but Futures/async/await don't do that either.
> Manga is nowhere near obsolete

I agree. The obsolete label applies to print manga, not the medium itself.
Even in the worse case, people could fork it and distribute a telemetry-free version.

Kudos to Microsoft for making the new Terminal open source (and here's hoping that it doesn't phone home with any private information!)
> APL did take usability into account.

Perhaps usability for a certain, very specific, subset of people (namely those who are writing code on a whiteboard?) But math notaion is not programming, they have different needs.

> UX is important!

Note that concise and powerful also apply to perl. Concise, in programming does not equal good UX. Often they're antithetical. (This also doesn't mean that verbose is "good UX" either. Programming language design, like programming, is about finding the right abstractions and providing them.)

Compare to ABC (a language python was heavily inspired by) using `:` to declare a function (ie. `def my_f():`) despite it being unnecessary, the language was parsable without it. But they did user studies, and those found that the colon helper readers understand the blocks better.

> Usability

Granted this may have been an improvement in usability. APL, being a higher level language, avoids many of the problems that C and co had, and I've never used basic/fortran any of the other early languages that were popular at the same time.

That said, I have to strongly disagree with the last paragraph. A good tool discourages misuse. Inscrutable programs are misuse, "Readability counts". A language that encourages, or doesn't discourage, inscrutable programs isn't as good a language as one that does (at least if you consider inscrutable programs to be misuse, and it appears that you, I, and the APL author all agree on that).
This makes sense. Sales tax is not owed on re-sales of purchases on which sales tax had already been paid. So clearly this is a plot to get consumers to re-sell their products to other consumers.
Impressive... theming, customization, and GPU-based rendering. This brings the Windows terminal on par with optimized "next-generation" terminals such as Alacritty: https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty.

I’ve avoided my own datacenter by using Equinix, for example. I wouldn’t call that “cloud” though.

Why Uber Hires Economists
I handle spam by handing a unique email address to every entity that requests my address (domain wildcard). What would be better is if there was an initial "hello" where some entity requested permission to send me email, and I could approve, deny, or even revoke in the future.

Basically, the issue is that senders cannot be reliably identified. If this were fixed, then spam filtering would be trivial.
I would love to try a psychedelic trip with a trained therapist guiding me toward facing my fears.

I’m generally a pretty anxious person (diagnosed with OCD, managed with ERP therapy), and I feel pretty confident that it would force me to face that part of me. I have no doubt that it’d be a beneficial experience.

Buuuuut... part of me is super nervous about what I might also find. It’s like part of my mind wants to explore it, and the other part doesn’t, which creates a lot of inner conflict. I honestly don’t know what I’m supposed to do with two parts of my brain fighting with itself.

Side note: How To Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan is a fantastic book and worth a read.
Golly, who could have ever expected this? Hopefully everyone remembers this when authoritarians cry about needing backdoors in all of our encryption.

It's going to be a vicious cycle as well (or virtuous depending on your point of view).

As demand for HDDs weakens, investments in R&D will be scaled back significantly. HDDs are in trouble even if you assume they'll follow the same capacity ramp they once did. If they slow down, they're toast.

(Although SSDs may also hit a wall scaling down; the low hanging fruit may already be picked.)

I use Word a lot on documents of varying complexity and size range from one to about 500 pages and, other than doing something like a TOC update on a giant and complex document, I've never seen Word be painfully slow, even in Print layout.

Painfully (and randomly shifting) inaccurate in print layout on documents that involve more than just text, sure, I see that every day.
What made Citi's hack much worst? How to avoid the same mistake?
Most of the consumer use cases for 2+ TB are well served by external drives or a NAS, which aren't part of the market segment that Nidec is predicting to crash this year. Backups and movie/photo libraries don't need to be on local internal drives. Large video game libraries just don't account for very much of the PC userbase. Every PC should have an SSD as primary storage, and with 512GB drives down to $50, very few PCs need any other internal storage.
I've used fullcalendar in several projects. Thank you so much for this :)

by replacing tokens recognizable as natural language words with arbitrary punctuation

It's far from "arbitrary" --- and I suspect that this dogmatic, misguided way of (not) thinking about it is responsible for the majority of the complaints and aversion, since as others have mentioned, it is completely equivalent in structure to if/else!

What do I mean by "far from arbitrary"? Well... what is the character used in basically all Latin (and even some widely-used non-Latin) languages to denote a question? I've already used that character twice in this post so far, and you should've found the previous two sentences to be pretty clear, so stop pretending the ternary operator is something scary and "unreadable" and see it for what it is: it is literally asking a question!

First time I read some of the different app store terms, I was in disbelief as to why anyone would want to put serious effort into an app under those terms.

But yeah, not all companies can claim to be only a victim here, as many have been enablers too. Especially the larger ones, those who could said no, but choose not to.
They are trying to shift the seller from being B&H to individual consumers who can more frequently be exempt from collecting sales tax.
My personal pet theory is that the energy consumption is more or less equivalent to the price. So as long as the solar panel is not economically viable, it does not provide an energy surplus.

20MWh is not much, it's $500-$3000 worth of energy, depending on taxes and stuff. Can you buy, install, connect, maintain, clean a 300W solar panel for 20 years for this price?

Edit: Also, 20MWh is quite high. That's 9h of perfect sun, each day, the whole 20 years.
We are in an advanced persistent cold war with multiple Nations. I've always been curious just how aggressive the nsa's tailored access operations and other groups were in terms of attacking other nation-states.
Even though the NSA-style attack was conducted by Chinese hackers in March 2016 (comfortably before the Shadow Brokers' leak of NSA tools in August 2016), it's possible that the tools were circulating outside the NSA earlier and thus used outside of NSA direction.

Edit: That was confusing. Basically, we don't know when exactly before Aug2016 the tools were leaked, so it could have been someone else probing the Chinese server.
> Would these strategies have been a thing if so many people didn't flip their shit because a near AAA level game tried to charge a few bucks?

Yes, since AAA Studios want all the money they can possibly get. Thus we'd always end with them trying to squeeze every last penny they can get out of their customers. And predatory tactics seem to work best for that.
But it matters in a comparison like this, because commercial real estate gets used to run businesses. Businesses, especially in high value real estate areas, tend to increase real estate prices even further by providing well-paying jobs and useful services. The comparison is like looking at a fireplace and then saying that it's warmer in the fireplace areas. We're talking about justifying action against businesses here. It matters where the value comes from.
2.5" HDD, 250GB @ 0.059€/GB

2.5" SSD, 256GB @ 0.108€/GB

Still not seeing it. And I don't consider these ranges practical. But I guess some people must since they're still made.
I'd imagine it's just the digital extension of an historically ongoing effort to collect anything that could be used as leverage in a conflict, if and when one happens.
I don't know how much foreign relationships or China-US policy you follow but when it comes to China-US, the term "Thucylides' Trap" gets thrown around a bit ( https://foreignpolicy.com/2017/06/09/the-thucydides-trap/ - a term coined by this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham_T._Allison )

Rivalry between a rising power and an existing superpower is inevitable. How it gets resolved though is not certain.

China is on track to overtake the US economically in a decade or two (if you consider PPP adjusted GDP they've already surpassed us). That have implications in other areas too -- strategic, diplomatic, cultural, etc. How will the US respond to this? Will we simply let it happen or will we stop it and perhaps violently? What will it mean for our agendas in different areas since China and the US don't share the same goals in many areas. What's especially frightening to me is that Xi seems to advocate a view that China's rise is a return to a historical greatness and that China is destined to dominate -- similar in some sense to the old "manifest destiny" idea of the US. Xi's idea is now enshrined into the Chinese constitution along side Mao's ideas. My view is on this rather bleak but I think the US needs allies more than ever. Ironically I think two equally matched powers are more likely to come to a peaceful coexistence than if one side perceives the other to be weaker. Maybe a new cold (or cool-ish) war isn't so bad compared to a hot war.
Spiky usage patterns are great for cloud.

Otherwise, I’ve did some tests years ago and what I spent over 5 years would have gotten me only a few months on AWS. And I think I only walked into the data center once in those five years.
We're already past the point where hard drive R&D is driven solely by datacenter needs; nobody was working on 14+ TB hard drives with the expectation that consumers would be a non-trivial part of that market segment, except indirectly through cloud storage.
> I hope that this article is wrong

Time (and further research) will tell, but truth be told nothing in it surprises people who have watched specific local nonurban areas for decent spans of time. Ecologies are collapsing. It's visible and obvious; scientific reports describe and quantify what we already see and experience daily.
The medical field comes immediately to mind, from implants through to flexible tubing. I mean, I suppose you could make the tubing for a peristaltic pump from cat gut or something.
Good on them for making CMD more modern.

But I'm not a fan of the ligatures they've shown in the

Luckily, the font seems to just be an option and not something forced on you.
It starts about 200 years ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Century_of_humiliation
Very interesting example! Another might be in Formula 1 racing.

Certain driver's (Senna [1]) have been known to force passes by putting the other driver into a no-win situation. The passing driver might dive to the inside of a turn with no hope of slowing enough to avoid hitting the car they are passing. Their only hope is that the other driver will decide to avoid an accident, allowing the pass.

If they don't make way then both drivers are out of the race. Maybe the aggressive driver receives a penalty for reckless behavior. If they do make way though, the aggressive driver now knows that they can do this again and again to this same competitor without being punished for it. Some of the greatest drivers in history (Senna, Schumacher, Earnhardt in NASCAR) had reputations for this.

Another example could be unspoken collusion between poker players in a tournament. When one player is all in with their tournament life on the line they may be called by multiple other players who have more chips than them. These other players can still bet against each other in a side pot, but often won't and may consider doing so bad form. If one does continue to bet it may force the other to fold. This improves the betters chance of winning this hand, but it also improves the all in player's chance of winning and staying in the tournament. By not betting the two callers increase the chance of knocking this player out increasing their expected winnings for the tournament.
