You can't really make people into shareholders--at least not into successful investors.

The reason many (most?) people aren't shareholders is because they simply can't afford to save. You can't eat AAPL. You can't clothe your baby in JNJ. People should "pay themselves first" as savings but the reality for the normal person working 3 jobs in order to hold their household together is there's no room to pay yourself first--you barely make enough to survive. Even if you have $100 in your pocket at the end of the month, if you use it to buy a stock you're -10% right off the bat due to brokerage fees.

What are some ways a company can try to "make" their employee into one of the shareholder class?

Well, they can just give their employees company stock in lieu of some other compensation, but then the employee is stuck with this risky single-equity portfolio which they either need to sell (minus transaction fees and taxes) then use to buy some other diversified investment (minus transaction fees), or hold on to and risk being the next Enron casualty.

They can offer a 401K and even match contributions, but this requires the employee to deliberately elect to participate, which only makes sense if your basic needs are already met. 401Ks seem to mostly benefit middle class and affluent people who already budget for saving. Plus most 401K plans I've seen are loaded with expenses that eat a significant percentage of participants' savings.

Maybe the government can step in. People talk about Basic Income... Maybe instead of cash basic income offer basic equity: every American could be issued N shares of SPY every month or something. Let everyone have some basic baseline skin in the financial system game. This helps everyone benefit, not just employees.

Maybe instead of tax refunds being a big lump of cash, they can default to being issued as treasury bonds.

I don't know. "Tax breaks to corporation, hoping they in turn act nice" hasn't worked out very well for us.
Git is the only fast tool in that stack, it's slow because of the trinity of ntfs, electron and c# that those tools are built with. When you've got slow tools on a slow file system you're going to have a slow time.
Yes. I just didn't display all the data. I think it goes back to the 90's or so.
Sure young folks should job hop early to get to promoted. It’s an awesome economy now right?
Looked at the website and didn't really get much of a feel for what was actually in the book.

I will say though, having a good knowledge of SQL (we use Postgres where I work) can help you do some really neat things.

There are probably three or four large new features I've added to our system in the past couple years that have boiled down to "Pre-process the input and then ask Postgres for the answer"

Databases are very powerful. They are even more powerful when you know how to use them right.
I don't have, use, or want cash. My wallet consists of my ID and a few credit cards and nothing else.

Checks are another anachronism I don't own or use.
>I wonder if theres any danger of walmart being declared a vexatious litigant, since this amount is clearly nonsense.

What amount sounds like nonsense? I'd sue someone if they stole $100 from me, or sold me $100 of bad goods and wont do anything about it, even if I make 200K!

And what part of "fires at stores" (regardless of amount) sounds comforting, legal, and acceptable?
The CDC says, "When performed and interpreted in accordance with current guidelines, 2-tiered serologic analysis has a sensitivity of ≈70%–100% and a specificity >95% for disseminated Lyme disease." [https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/syn/en/article/22/7/15-1694.htm]

This is why testimonials and other social proof are important on sales pages. :)
Typically, people that lend out their money for longer periods of time want a higher interest rate for lending out that money, than if they lend out at a shorter time frame.

The yield curve inverts when the interest rate you get for lending long term bonds (~10 years) is less than the interest rate you get for short term bonds (~1 year). Every recession in the last 8 or so recessions had been predated by a yield curve inversion, so people take it to be a predictor of a slowing economy now.

When did Musk ever settle, if there is an opportunity to open his mouth and make things worse?

I just can see explanations coming from fanboys that Walmart sells engine oil and is therefore part of the ICE mafia out to get Tesla. And they short the stock, too! /s
As a manager I typically open the conversation with hey hows it going, followed by taking genuine interest in the response. Then I will say hey we have a request from so and so to do x by y, how do you see it from your angle? They will usually say something like “I think I could fit it in if I drop the following.” And then we have a deal and we make a plan to check back. What do you guys think? Is that just the same as “can you please?”
Theorizing...

Reduced gaps can limit/change air circulation. No matter the efficiency, solar panels absorb/create a nontrivial amount of heat that could be trapped underneath. That heat alone could be a problem or it could accelerate wear of other systems/parts.

You could also have breakage, rubbing, pulling, or other mechanical issues that can result in shorts and by extension fires.

What is in the article suggests poor quality control or poor quality installation to my eye.

The solar city acquisition still stinks to me of one Musk company buying another Musk company using investor money and shouting 'synergy' until people refocused on the poor quality of Tesla's car production instead.

I am going to buy the book for two reasons.One for its content and Two to somehow thank Dimitri Fontain for all his work on Postgres. He is one of the main Postgresql contributors.
Wow, every time I see this site I am blown away by how well it is done.

I am going to put a couple of book titles out there in case somebody doesn't know about them and could benefit:

1.) "The NURBS book" -- Anybody got this one on their bookshelf? (authors Les Piegl and Wayne Tiller)
I can't recommend it enough, if you are into rolling your own traditional B-spline lib with expert help!

2.) Then, for a gentle intro to multiresolution (especially because it makes for a good jumping off point from traditional B-splines) there is
"Wavelet's for Computer Graphics" by Eric Stollnitz, Tony DeRose, and David Salesin. Very good for a "matrix transform / projection-prolongation picture of splines, and related entities.

Anyway, these helped me on my (continuing) Spline/CAD journey. Cheers.
This is incredibly annoying. Whilst I don’t really agree with tipping, it’s a strongly ingrained cultural norm in the US, and what I really don’t agree with is lying to your customers. I made a DoorDash order just a few minutes ago and it was the first time I had tipped cash to a delivery driver. The driver seemed to be pretty pleased. I’d use an alternative delivery service but I’m not sure which to use, and none of them seem to have the market penetration doordash has here in the NW.
Yea this is getting a lot of headlines.

The fact that they put up a gefraud.com and they call them "GEnron" is interesting.
Project looks awesome, but I was a little confused. Is this a centralized user management with payments proxy to many application backends?

That's the same with academic scores. Citations in the "Self-published journal of amateur chiropractors" don't buy you much academic credit...

In fact PageRank was inspired by academic rankings in that aspect:

"PageRank was influenced by citation analysis, early developed by Eugene Garfield in the 1950s at the University of Pennsylvania, and by Hyper Search, developed by Massimo Marchiori at the University of Padua. In the same year PageRank was introduced (1998), Jon Kleinberg published his work on HITS. Google's founders cite Garfield, Marchiori, and Kleinberg in their original papers."

At least in my installation they’re all strongly fastened to a cross bar. I’m not quite sure how they would shift in that scenario?
For any system we could use to define a real number, (and not just because we are mortal), the system could only define or uniquely specify countably many real numbers. Any countable set of real numbers has measure 0, and therefore, almost all real numbers cannot be defined/specified using that system.

This holds for whatever system you use which defines a (possibly partial) function from [ the set of finite (but unboundedly long) sequences of characters over a finite alphabet], to real numbers

Or equivalently, from the natural numbers to the real numbers.
Linux all the way! OSX doesn't actually do multiseat. So, have a Linux Mac Pro that I can ssh into, or if that's blocked, get a shell or even my desktop in a web browser among other things. All in all, rather happy with it, though I really would like one of those Raptor Power9 boards for the hell of it.

"The studies of the skeletons revealed a common cause of death: blows to the back of the head, caused by round objects falling from above. The researchers concluded that the victims had been caught in a sudden hailstorm, just as described in the local legends and songs."
I am currently staying in a detached house, to myself, in the country, for less than the cost of a hotel room in the nearest town. It is idyllic.

Historically I've stayed in rooms in apartments or houses and socialised with the hosts.

It sounds to me like you have a view of the world tainted by bad experiences. I prefer to live as if others are good.

You can usually quite easily pick out the professional fake-hotel style listings quite easily.

It helps a lot to not go for a popular place that would encourage investors.
Here are the details of his compensation agreement:

Antibody testing seems to have wiggle room, which causes people to assume they have Lyme whatever the result. If they believe chronic Lyme is ruining their lives, and long term antibiotics will help, why not take a conclusive test that actually finds the bacteria and know for sure? What's missing from all these anecdotes is that they go from not being sure of the diagnosis, to trying a fringe treatment against the recommendation of multiple medical bodies.
I couldn’t agree more with your last comment. A lot of folks strive for optimizations in their application language of choice...relying on standard SQL queries (aka joins and unions that fit most use cases but not specific ones). ORMs have also come a long way...but...if you know your SQL, you can be lethal!
I wouldn't compare it like that. Templates are more like meta-programming. Templates can achieve what you can do with Java generics, but they can also do a lot more.
He'd never bought stock in 24 years with his previous company. So... $5 million of his own money invested seems like a decent bet.
Compared to your average SV outfit like Tesla? It most likely is.
Hate speech as a legal definition cannot coexist with freedom of speech. I hold freedom of speech as one of my highest principles. We already have just laws against inciting panic and violence. The category of hate speech is irrelevant in the best case, and actively harmful in the worst case.

Most importantly, what should concern all thoughtful people is that it seems to be within the Overton Window to say how much you hate white people because of the color of their skin. Not hate speech, why exactly? Because the entire concept is reactionary nonsense trying to give white people harsher criminal sentences for the same violent crimes as committed by other races. What happens if the table turns again and the standard is unfairly applied in reverse? Hate soeech advocates have already set the precedent that we get to choose which races get favored prosecution treatment for the same crime.

Violence is violence, speech is speech. You can't improve on Martin Luther King, man. Judge individuals based on the content of their character. The list is complete.
There's more to docker than Docker Hub, but I'm not sure what % of their revenue is from Docker Hub.

Even if GitHub "wins" there will still be a lot on Docker Hub.

Also, it's already possible to use other registries like Amazon's ECR or Google Cloud's GCR, or even your own private one.
I think this is a neat idea. Basically, you'd get more "credit" if you're cited by a good paper than if you're cited by a bad paper.
You can find someone who will say anything, but that's still simply not the definition of sexism.
Does it do a shallow pull or pull a tarball of the source?
Reading the report, he seems to be dipping into "future forecasting" quite a bit.

"First, a stiff recession after ten years of domestic economic growth, will see that the next chapter in GE’s history is Chapter 11."

You can't predict a recession, or when it comes how it's going to go, so how is that "first" when it comes to discovering accounting fraud?
Shame! I was hoping for some detailed analysis of what constitutes a troll.

For example, from Oxford I see "(in folklore) an ugly creature depicted as either a giant or a dwarf." Well, which is it?

Further to that, is Troll always a derogatory term? Some think of them as ugly, but apparently in Scandinavian folklore, trolls may be ugly and slow-witted, or look and behave exactly like human beings, with no particularly grotesque characteristic about them.

Again, these important issues are left unresolved by the New Hampshire Supreme Court. Truly an opportunity lost.
Let’s face it someone who has deep frustration pretty much only cares about cya so in a way these two cases are in fact highly correlated. You might also want to question why you need a cya if you don’t harbor or anticipate “deep frustration.” :)

> You need someone you really trust, who is 100% independent

The examples here are not 100% independent, given prior friendships or working relationships with the founders. Terms will stipulate that the assignment of an independent director
be "mutually agreed upon by the other board members" (e.g. founder and investor).
Dna testing is available but has similar problems in that there's no standard to set a cutoff for limiting the number of false positives or false negatives. It's also even more expensive and very unlikely to be covered by insurance.
"Until now, the leading theory was that a brutal hailstorm pummelled all of the travelers to death at the same time around 800 CE in a single catastrophic event, which might explain the unhealed compression fractures found on some of the bones. While deadly hail may account for some of the fatalities, new evidence strongly suggests that these people met their deaths in multiple different events at the lake across the centuries."
Scaling Must Continue: But calling this an extension of Moore’s Law is a mistake

If you think G.E. is bad, I encourage you to take a deeper look at Ford and gasp in shock and awe. The 2008 financial crisis didn’t treat either of these two companies well, but I’d much rather deal with G.E.’s finances than have to take on the mess that Ford is.

Ford really should have declared bankruptcy like General Motors did then in the preceding crisis, and it was only through a miracle of financial engineering that they somehow managed to avoid it. To this day, you can still see the incredible burden it carries on the company.
Can you explain why more shorters means share prices drop? Is it all perception or am I missing something? Sorry n00b here.

This quick explanation "Startup Boards: Forming & Organizing Your Board" from Kaufmann Startup School has been helpful: https://youtu.be/SEK6lbuYjnQ
It's entirely possible that the x86 might still have been very successful even if the IBM PC had never happened. Back then, there were a lot of vendors involved in the 8080/Z80 ecosystem, and the 8086/8088 was a logical path to the future for those vendors – an easier migration path than e.g. the Motorola 68K, and cheaper than the 68K as well.

This lawsuit could drag on for years and cost a significant portion of the amount being sued over because the value is so small. Hardly an equivalence.
Not sure if you intentionally mentioned both, but it's worth noting that G.E. is General Electric, not General Motors.
But can you imagine starting a marriage never having heard any advice or even seen a marriage in person? You were raised by wolves, but one day you came to the village, met a girl, and now a guy in a robe says you're married. How much trial and error will it take to become a good husband? You should go acquire some wisdom by asking people.

Many startup founders are basically in that situation for a dozen kinds of relationships. They've never hired, never closed a sale, never rented an office, never tried to collect a late payment, never fired someone, never raised VC money, never hired a marketing firm... Those things aren't rocket science and you can certainly learn to do any of them, but noob mistakes are expensive and you don't have a big cushion of time and money. So it's good to have someone to talk your plans over with first.

A lot of advice does come down to "That's a standard problem, and here's a standard way to solve it that works fine." That's fundamentally conservative advice, but startups seem to do best if they innovate only on the few things that make them unique and just do the standard thing for everything else.
Just remember what the article said - if you’ve met one, you’ve met... one. Everyone is different and what bothers me is the assumption of autism the instant someone does something unintentionally awkward. “Oh he’s on the spectrum...” I hear that so often as a dismissive that I wonder how actually thoughtful and caring that person really is... if we can’t have even the slightest bit of empathy towards fellow humans I wonder how these people would treat someone who actually does have autism.
They all invest, but not in the same things necessarily.

As a degenerate case, can anyone design a simple 'meta machine' or constraint-set in the instructions which imposes specific costs on the interrupt decision logic? Can one code to this? Is this useful or just entertaining?

It might (for instance) be analogous to designing solutions which fit in L1 cache, for the outcome in time to execute.

Or it might affect the side channel consequences of some forms of crypto.

(or am I missing the obvious "this is in fact, how it works" answer. I am sure I recall in simpler times reading that writing interrupt handlers demanded some consideration of what was fixed or mutable in the throw)

Yes, that was intentional. General Motors, the counter part to Ford as a car company, declared bankruptcy in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. The financial practices that led to General Motors having to declare bankruptcy were largely the same at Ford.

Ford didn’t go bankrupt then, but they basically had to figuratively sell their soul in order to avoid doing so.
That was my first thought but I doubt it's possible with a lake that's an average of 2m deep. I'd still suspect some sort of gas release though, from pictures it looks like it's surrounded on all sides so CO2 releases couldn't escape.
This looks really cool, might have to start using it!
They don't even have to impact any actual protesters. Just get the word out that your life / career might be impacted and that will be enough to scare people.
Share prices usually drop if there's a ton of short demand, because to short a stock -- you literally borrow a stock and then sell it. The idea is, you'll buy it back later (hopefully at a lower price) and return it to who you borrowed it from (hopefully for a profit).
I think a lot of cutting-edge work is also done at the edge of understanding, and that's fine. It can be hard enough to explain groundbreaking work to experts with deep context; it's reasonable to me that it takes more time and work to find the explanations that make sense to the average person.

I do agree that researchers should be able to give decent "here's what I do" explanations to the general public. But that's very different than a member of the general public understanding the context well enough that they can judge the value of the work to the field.
Just in the case you didn't know, you can view the reflog with `git reflog`

From there you can grab the commit SHA1s and view their changes with `git show ${SHA1}`, cherry-pick them to your working branch, or whatever else you want to do to recover them.
