It may have in the early days (just like many countries' oil programmes), however now the fund is helping to provide subsidies which makes gasoline cars more expensive than electric cars (amongst other policies), and hence Norway is now one of leaders of EV adoption (per person):

Considering this is explicitly stated to be for welfare, it would be really interesting to see a major UBI experiment. If the fund doesn't grow there's 186k 4 per person could be 12k/yr for over 15 years.
Most users do pay for music via streaming services though.

> Creative works may be protected by means of the existing contract system, anything beyond that is grossly controlling and leads to absurd situations

How can a contract protect me from someone not bound by it. If I publish a novel then what, I provide a license that provides a penalty for copying my creative work (now we're back at modern IP laws but with more work for creators), but I'm not protected if someone not party to the contract copies the work and puts it online.

It might increase the amount of amateur art in the world. But, most of that isn't very good. Good artists need to survive and get paid so they can focus on creating more works. Some IP laws help that.

> Same thing goes for graphic design etc.

But you're saying that if I see good graphic design somewhere, I can just take it and use it. No need to hire anyone except for bespoke branding, which most work doesn't need.
And if the construction location were the western wall? St Peters basilica? The Vietnam war memorial? Arlington National cemetery? A site of equivalent meaning to your worldview? What then?

Python vs. Rust for Neural Networks
This hurts younger generations. They will become more and more oblivious to how things work. They will be forced to "trust" someone that knows better instead of having the knowledge to decide themselves.

For those that become engineers, it will take even longer to untrain all the handholding they've had to endure.

If the web is apparently so damn complicated maybe we should rebuild it to be "simpler" instead of hiding it how it works. I'd prefer to leave it exactly how it is until there is a clear reason to revisit the design.

QBasic, then Visual Basic for real programs.

Well, yes, they should, but the Norwegian economy is not really built around original ideas. Despite its current image as a country, Norway is historically incredibly conservative and this continues to be the case in their business environment. Nearly all of their exports are petroleum, fish or metal. Try to think of even a single notable Norwegian startup.. without Googling :-D
Yes those social Norwegian's invested; and the UK gave there north sea oil revenues to all the oligarchs
I think it's a good argument that you shouldn't need to do this but like everyone my age got their first car loan and apartment with their parents cosigning. It's super relevant to the the US economy today.

It's possible to get credit without someone else but you'll get an absolutely terrible interest rate -- if you have someone in your life with good credit that trusts you (like family) you're leaving money on the table by not 'borrowing' their good credit.

I grew up in South Jersey, spent most of my life there, and I've never heard of "jawn". I don't doubt that it exists, but it certainly seems overstated. I've spent some time in Philly proper, Manayunk, working class neighborhoods, college neighborhoods, and with large groups of Philly transplants in New York. Maybe it was said around me and just got lost in conversation, but I have no recollection of it at all, so I wonder how ubiquitous it really is.
> So a double strength dose of the racemic mixture has a much milder effect than a single strength dose of the strong enantiomer?

Is that the angle here? I thought we were comparing the total mass of each substance. OP asked about noticeable differences, not paradoxical effects. 25mg of dextro is obviously going to have a weaker overall effect than 50mg of racemic amp.

But that's not what OP asked and it's not the context. The context is whether esketamine and racemic ketamine could provide a noticeably different experience. And the answer is yes. Just like amphetamine, the ketamine isomers have similar pharmacokinetic properties but not necessarily similarly pharmacodynamic properties.

ugh, I see HN bollocksed my list and I can't edit it to fix it, so repeated for readability:

- Type theory (Benjamin Pierce's "Types and Programming Languages" is the de facto introduction to this. It covers everything from untyped lambda calculus to things way more complex than standard Haskell, including example implementations of type checker, etc.)

- Computer assisted proofs/formal verification of programs (the Software Foundations book series, co-authored by Pierce are a good (and free!) intro: https://softwarefoundations.cis.upenn.edu/)

- The Spineless Tagless G-machine (if you are a more low level/C minded person, this talks about how we compile a lazy functiona language like Haskell to an Intel CPU: http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.53.37...)

- The Typeclassopedia (which talks about how various CT inspired classes relate to each other and their laws: https://wiki.haskell.org/Typeclassopedia)

Class action lawyer here and respectfully disagree. "Numerosity" of members is a class action prerequisite, but it's usually met if over 40 class members exist. In this huge (over 100m ppl), controversial settlement, well over 40 people will likely opt out, so "numerosity" shouldn't be a problem.

The bigger question is whether the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCPs) allow a second class action, by individuals that opted out of a prior settlement on the same issue. Judges have disagreed about how to answer that question--some have forbade the second class action, while others have allowed it. For example, compare In re Bridgestone/Firestone, 333 F.3d at 769 ("And a person who opts out receives the right to go it alone, not to launch a competing class action.") with In re Baldwin-United, 105 F.R.D. at 481 ("[P]laintiffs can opt out of a settlement class and pursue their litigation goals either individually or as another putative class.").

I think the correct answer is to allow a second class action. The FRCPs say nothing about an opt-out forfeiting any rights, including the right to bring a class action. Further, the FRCPs state that they "should be construed ... to secure the just, speedy, and inexpensive determination of every action," and allowing a second class is inexpensive compared to requiring numerous individual lawsuits by opt-outs.

There are other arguments, counterarguments, other relevant cases, and more nuanced issues involved, but hopefully this helps.
Assuming that a fund like that grows ~10% per year or so, each norwegian makes a bonus of 19230.7 just by existing. That is enough for a family to live in the european south.

Imagine "War and Peace" being written without descriptions of characters or places, just bland facts about what happened. It would probably go under 60KB! Damn this Tolstoi guy put in so much fancy descriptions and dialogs in there, we could do better!
As a black Philadelphian I have to disagree. I use Jawn all the time (in non professional all settings). And so does every other black person I know. Most of the black people I know are working class and they from my estimation use Jawn the most.

Now to proper usages. It’s true you can use Jawn as a replacement for “thing”. However, you can also you it (as bad as it sounds) for women. So a common phase is “Did you get the Jawn from the Jawn?” Meaning “did you get the thing from the woman?” Or “The Jawn told me to come up to the Jawn down the street” meaning “the woman told me to go to the place down the street”. Succinctly Jawn is a person, place, thing or woman. There is no way you can overstate the usage of Jawn. I’ve used it and heard it my entire life from almost everyone I know.
Discovery of oil in the United States: 1859.

Discovery of oil in Norway: 1969.

Imagine if we'd have had the foresight to take Norway's approach that natural resources are the nation's natural resources and let the returns build for 160 years.
And? The point still stands that the different conception of property rights in the US allows the revenue of natural resources like oil to go to corporations instead of the nation. Even in cases where the resources are on public land the licenses for extraction are often a pittance compared to what the company will make.
I'm from the UK and I've never heard of anyone talk of 'brain drain' as a problem. I think you may be generalising from the tech sector.
Hueón is really written huevón, literally ballsy. In most of South America it is used in a vulgar registry to refer to someone. Initially it was derogatory (having big eggs can also refer to someone being overly cautious, as he walks slowly to “not tread on them”, or to be a sloth), but with extended use it has gradually lost meaning and is more generically used to call someone. Similar transition out of insult as motherfucker. Similar level of vulgarity registry.

Well, for me it's mostly to keep people accountable. If you have written down in an email that the deadline is for day X, there is no way someone could say "well, you didn't tell me"

I moved to Philly in 2008. It was around 2010 that my white, suburban friends started using "jawn" and acting like they had always been using it. By the time I left in 2012, I had not heard any other types of people else use it.

Oh, trust me, it's an absolute delight. It's tingly, ASMR-like and you hear stuff in a completely different way.

One of my friends just goes to town with his synesthesia and usually keeps his eyes shut for a big part of the evening.

One of the most mind-blowing experiences I've had there with a well-known piece of music that many can relate to: the bass on the 2018 mix of The Beatles' 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps'. In a room with almost no resonance it's just so nice and warm.

Similarly, with the clean bass, you fall for these hidden gems, even among contemporary top 40 pop, like Dua Lipa's hit 'New Rules' from a couple of years back. Also, a fair chunk of pop sounds quite airy and nice compared to ten years ago.

My point is though that it's very self-selecting crowd we've attracted. Not even everyone who loves music enjoy sitting still and quiet for an evening, save for our quick remarks and giggles of pleasant surprise, for example when we describe how good some cheesy 80s pop tune actually sounds. There are no guilty pleasures if the production is good :D

Now with the Tool discography coming to streaming tomorrow(!!!) I suspect our next session is going to be quite the orgy.
How old is your daughter?

> This is why my kid isn't going to watch YouTube. If and when we decide to show her any children's show, it'll be from a manually curated set of videos downloaded and streamed from a NAS.

Until what age? I doubt this resolve will last until 18, particularly when they become old enough to know what their friends are watching. The vast majority of video content isn't legally downloadable, and even illegal downloading is a bit difficult because children's shows aren't as widely shared as content aimed at adults. (Even really popular shows like Paw Patrol have surprisingly limited availability.)

If you want to limit ad exposure, using subscription services like Netflix is more practical, as does purchasing shows on a per show basis on YouTube (which granted gets very expensive). Public broadcasting is also typically ad free; in the UK we have iplayer which has ad-free children's programming available for streaming.

It would be easy to make social security solvent far into the future. There's no shortage of resources to do it, just lack of political will.

One step would be to move it away from an insurance model and raise the cap on contributions. Another would be to modestly increase the contribution rates.

This reminds me of Venezuelan’s use of `vaina` (literally a husk), an all-purpose catch word that I’ve seen used to supplant other words/concepts that you don’t have at the tip of your tongue. In my native Spain I see people use `historia` (history).

It’s not a substitute of shit, thing, and stuff, since it can be used alongside these words and you can bring the `vaina` to the `vaina`.

Maybe the weirdness of `jawn` is it's not a word on its own therefore it cannot cause confusion?

For me also the change to "smart shop", i.e. you scan and bag your groceries as you walk around, had meant the end of plastic bags for me. I now have to think for a second how many bags I need beforehand, not just grab them on checkout.

These days I always have a few reusable bags in the boot of my car that I grab on my way into the shop. The big sturdy rectangular ones that fit snuggly in a trolley and then straight into the boot of the car. And a more insulated bag for cold items. On top of a foldable one in my work bag for small items on the way home if I commuted by train.

I hated the old flimsy but free bags they had in the UK, I did not trust them enough to reuse. They quickly ripped, could not contain anything runny/liquid, etc. I am glad they disappeared, both for environmental and personal reasons.

Some points of comparison.

- CalPERS[1] has about $360 billion in assets under management.

- The US Social Security Trust fund (which, depending on your POV you might count as an accounting fiction) is about $2.9 trillion.

- Vanguard has about $5.3 trillion in AUM.

"Since 1998 the fund has generated an annual return of 5.8 percent, or 4,404 billion kroner."
But where/how does the money get spent?

Surely the government doesn’t burn it.

And a better metric would be to look at tax burden, because top marginal rates are just that: what you pay on our last dollar, not your first. Sales tax isn’t charged on rent/food/property so it’s only charged on a small percentage of one’s after-tax income.
In the UK, it used to be the norm to see a plastic bag tree, all aflutter with collected trash and generally foul. Since the free bag ban, those have disappeared.

You may be young and/or wealthy if you don't remember trash everywhere.
The best comparison is Sweden, which is right next door, culturally and linguistically similar, but does not have oil like Norway does.

That doesnt explain why all those other countries make so much from oil, even though some of them are at war.
Do you think they need even more money?

The goal of this fund is not to invest in the economy, but to work as an insurance if ever the economy turns bad. If for whatever reason the economy in Norway collapses, they will still have this.

Are margins on CPU binning getting smaller? I've always wondered something: how likely is a CPU to fail after some time if it's been enabled for X, Y, Z features when it should've actually been some other variation and just barely managed to pass QC for its bin?

I believe my question is more about material engineering... is it possible the CPU could degrade a certain way and cause it to fail? Or is the enabled feature set, if passed QC, basically solidified forever?
