That's the problem. I'm almost 100% sure that, if you explained an NSL to Jefferson, he'd say that it clearly wasn't constitutional. Washington too, very likely. Adams, though, might have gone either way.
I'm guessing part of that "privilege" was being insulated from the presence of minorities and their opinions.
"or I guess more valves lately."

Extra valves can increase efficiency, which is probably why the valve count is increasing, can't say I've noticed though.

Extra wheels can improve aerodynamics also.

The progress is ok, just incremental. AMD had been playing catch up, until Ryzen/Threadripper.

Just for comparison, here are the numbers from my GeekBench 4 run:

Single-Threaded: 4,746
Multi-Threaded: 34,586

According to a leaked benchmark, the Threadripper 3000's numbers are:

Single-Threaded: 5,519
Multi-Threaded: 68,279

The multithreaded benchmark is 2x, that's a no-brainer since it's likely to have 32 cores vs the 1950x's 16 cores. Now, I will say that TR3000 benchmark is not overclocked (3.6ghz.) But from what I've read, it seems like there's not much room for these latest chips to be overclocked. So, despite being the 3rd iteration, the TR3000 is only 16% faster in single-threaded benchmarks than my 1950X.

Intel's 9900K (overclocked) gets a single-threaded GB4 score of ~7,000. That (or its successor) may be my next machine.
Fair enough, and sorry if that came off as condescending. Everywhere I've lived (SF and Chicago) Taxis are completely unusable, I'd call dispatch to request one and maybe get one an hour later. The value of Uber/Lyft to me is mostly just that it's a Taxi that works.
Also for jobs. A big issue in my country is the vocal subpopulation employed in coal mining, and the larger population believing that our coal industry is somehow nationally strategic; both of which will vote against anyone with any sensible climate strategy. I took a look the programs of our parties during last EU MEP elections, and sound treatment of climate issue is essentially inversely correlated with popularity of the party.
Clearly this is one of those mainlanders with more money than sense who did this as a "joke".
What you've described is already happening, just on a global scale. For 10 or more years, whole financial system is just pushing slowly and collectively the lever, knowing that central banks will not allow it to collapse. So as long, as you're not outstandingly fragile, and instead your collapse would mean a collapse of most of similar financial agents, you can always push your risk a little bit higher, forcing your competition to the same.
This is not true. Uber drivers make tons of money. I know because I was one. The press put a microscope on the subset of drivers who are stupid and can’t make money because they run their businesses poorly. The press is happy to let them tell their son stories but what they don’t mention is that those drivers refuse to drive anywhere outside their immediate area, they drive huge shitty cars that cost literally ten times more per mile to operate than a corolla or Prius, and various other things. There’s this myth floating around that Uber is a trap because the costs of running and maintaining a vehicle is difficult to quantify and all Uber drivers are uneducated people being taken advantage of. This is totally, completely untrue and seeing this myth/meme spread like cancer across the entire internet has opened my eyes to how something that is totally untrue can become widely and vehemently believed. It’s simply not true. I’ve given many thousands of rides. I know. I have a college education and the calculations solidly land within the region of very healthy profit no matter how pessimistic the maintenance projections are and no matter how wide the error margin is made. It’s. A. Fucking. Myth. I genuinely wonder if people will someday understand.

Anyway, drivers make more than enough. After glancing at Uber’s books, it looks like they spent literally a billion dollars on advertising. They also do a a lot of research. Uber could easily run its ride sharing service with room for profit if it wanted to cut back in other areas.

Ride sharing is totally economically viable as a business and it is better than traditional dispatch in almost every way. Companies like Uber aren’t going anywhere. To say that Uber is worthless is flat out wrong. Overvalued or levered or invested-in, yes maybe. But ride sharing is solid. The only thing that could change it is self driving cars.
Yes, and since we don't have data past 10M installs for any given extension, all of those are essentially tied for the top spot.
> Experts seem divided on what's causing the extremely tight overnight liquidity phenomenon

Divided on root cause, but not on its seriousness. Quarterly tax payments on the same day as a massive Treasury issuance amidst a Eurodollar carry trade that yields more, for longer, than the overnight markets. Nothing related to the soundness of the financial system.
This ruling sounds like it should apply to mobile apps too. I wonder what Apple and Google think about that.
Hit up https://www.indeed.com/ and simply search "Java" with your area. That will tell you a lot about whats on offer in your region (assuming you are US?).

Corporate America has a gigantic investment in Java technology and while some of it is legacy stuff, even those companies still need new products and that work is also done in Java.

Java is the tech stack that companies who's core business IS NOT software are using. In my opinion its absolutely worth learning ( if you already know PHP, Java wont be much of a stretch for you - enjoy having a dedicated Collections lib! ).

Java is not broken so nobody is in a hurry to fix it, save for startups enamored with Node in the last several years. HN can be kind of an echo chamber at times but I promise you companies are not interested in walking away from their Java investment because Rust/Go/Python etc.

Java is a close 2nd behind Python here:

The paper was called "Quantum supremacy using a programmable superconducting processor" and was available at [1] but is now removed.

I also found a partial abstract [2]: "The tantalizing promise of quantum computers is that certain computational tasks might be executed exponentially faster on a quantum processor than on a classical processor. A fundamental challenge is to build a high-fidelity processor capable of running quantum algorithms in an exponentially large computational space. Here, we report using a processor with programmable superconducting qubits to create quantum states on 53 qubits, occupying a state space 2^53 ~ 10^16. Measurements fro…"

Original plan was to have 72 qubits (as noted in the FT article) but was downsized to 53 for some reason. Original reporting on the 72-qubit plan here [3].

Given this ruling won't be overturned, I find this a very positive outcome for consumers and the market.
Also, I hope that there will be an investigation on the tiered pricing model for steam games, i.e. the same game can almost be twice as expensive in different countries in the EU. This coupled without the possibility of the consumer to buy the product in an EU country outside his/her own country goes clearly against the idea/rules of common market. As a European I should be free to order my product from any EU country of my choosing.

I think you are conflating therapists with psychiatrists.
This was exactly my thought. When I was in my twenties, starting my first company, I hammered myself every time I failed to deliver on my TODO list. Today, I'm far more introspective. If there's something that's dying on the vine, I want to know why that thing is apparently not very important to me.

Spend time figuring out what's really important and make sure your TODO list is full of those things. The unimportant stuff? Outsource it or make changes so that you don't have to have those things on your list.

It depends on who you are. The median person doesn't fly. But a round trip flight from Shanghai to New York is 3.4 tons of carbon, pretty close to the average global anual per capita emissions of 4.0 tons.
the clock rate has nothing to do with a bad implementation, all the computation just makes a lot of heat. the performance increase is still massive, often more than 2x avx, which also throttles btw
I guess there are tradeoffs by doing it client side vs server side like your project. Like you said there's no control of the media pipeline so encoding and preprocessing the video is not possible so only video formats supported by the browser are supported.
Yes. The Node ecosystem is a huge liability just waiting to happen. Any organization that depends on NPM is making a huge gamble. You can do a lot to mitigate this (private NPM repo, locks) but the reality is that the dependency chains are dangerous. Is someone in an organization going to audit all of those dependencies? Especially under the circumstances where they've been declared without an explicit version (>, >=, <, <=, ~, ^, 1.2.x, *).

I've made the same switch to AdGuard after upgrading to Safari 13, happy so far. (I've loved uBlock Origin for many years.)
So: Not enough demand for Treasuries, dealers have to purchase the difference, dealers running out of money to keep doing that, the Fed supplying the money for repo. I can buy all that, and it makes me nervous.

How close are we to a failed auction where the dealers won't or can't purchase the difference? How close are we to the Fed having to buy them directly?
We need both, in so far that slowing the warming buys us time to invent new technologies, and move economies towards negative emissions without breaking it or (if I'm to believe api's speculations elsewhere in the thread[0], and I am willing to) starting World War Three.

Not really. But to be honest, I think people who are upset with the rejection or the feedback are not likely to share that with me.

I like to think that how we message the CFP and how we manage the process and communication with submitters decreases the chance of people being overly upset with the outcome.

> And you should still be minifying your CSS and JS

We do, as the post you replied to said.

> Doesn't matter how much you dance around it, this wasn't a good architectural decision, nor is it standard industry practice.

Just because you happen to believe something doesn't make it "standard industry practice." Repeating the same unsupported claims with extra conviction doesn't make for an argument (persuasive or otherwise). Semantic versioning and versioning libraries/"grouped by version" is very much standard, in fact the industry's most popular CDN (by far) does exactly that:

https://cdnjs.com/libraries/jquery/

https://cdnjs.com/libraries/angular.js

Your "solution" solves only one issue well: cache busting. Versioned directories solve that issue but also solve other issues (deployment/human understanding/grouping associated resources together).

I'm not sure you yourself even know why you believe this. You just seem to have read WebPack's docs, decided that's how it should work, and view it as a one size fits all solution to completely unrelated problems (i.e. it isn't an architectural/organizational answer, it is a technological one for cache busting, thus irrelevant to the topic).

If you have anything of substance to add, by all means, but so far your post are strong in conviction and weak in justification (technical or organizational). You keep arguing from authority, but forgot to say who the authority is meant to be.
I explained the basis for my reasoning about the upper bound, on banks, of the impact of the higher effective federal funds rate. I concluded that the size of the impact "shouldn't matter." I don't see how that translates to "very strong opinions" on the topic. Instead, it's an invitation for others to directly address and correct the error in logic.

You, for your part, are conveying very strong opinions on the topic and asserting that you understand it well. But, the first time around, you made a cryptic reply that focused more on calling me ignorant [1] than on pinpointing the error in my model.

When I referred to your superior understanding, that was not sarcasm; that was taking your assertion at face value. I recognize that others may know more about this. One implication of having superior understanding is the ability to make better contributions contributions to the discussion than calling someone ignorant [1] and asserting that a small RoR matters because leverage.

But rather than address the specific error your believe exists, you made an orthogonal claim, obscured with jargon you didn't define (like "ON").

To clarify, my original assertion was that, even if banks had to absorb the entire extra cost of the higher interest rates, that would still be small compared to their return to capital. Do you disagree with that? Is there another mechanism by which the higher borrowing costs translate into higher costs throughout the economy? If so, what is that mechanism?

If you have the superior understanding you claim to, then answering those questions is how you can refute the model I presented, and it should be easy with such an understanding. But telling me that your work buddies think I'm stupid -- that does not add to the discussion.

It's more than that even - there is at least one other identical car driving around doing the same things in the same area too, according to TFA.

I honestly believe that this is how QE will be reintroduced. The article even mentions that a "solution" to the repo squeeze will be for the Fed to begin expanding its balance sheet in order to create more bank reserves.

My question is this: will interest rates ever be allowed to go back up to historical norms? This episode clearly shows that the Fed won't allow rates to go up even if it's a temporary spike, so why should we believe that Treasury yields will be allowed to go back up?
Recently someone has contacted me to publish a dummy Chrome extension with broad permissions, which they would have updated with their code. After declining, they have offered $20k for the job.

It was interesting to see this strategy, they are trying to implicate people to create publisher accounts for them, verified with credit cards that cannot be traced back to them and do not look suspicious. Though the money they have offered seemed too much for the job, I guess they are also trying to hook developers and convince them to do other stuff down the road.

I do get plenty of purchase and monetization offers, some of which I have shared in a blog post [1], but this was a trick I have never encountered before.

> I grew up in the lower middle class in France, and I have what's considered great healthcare in the US. In France, I would never think twice before going to the doctor (i.e primary care) when I had a medical issue. In the US, I still think it twice even though my copay is not a big dent in my budget.

That’s the point of co-pays, and that’s why France has them. According to the OECD statistics I posted elsewhere in this thread, per capita expenditures on non-premium out of pocket expenses (things like co-pays and deductibles) are the same in the US and France.

2.5% eh? We should all immediately stop flying... This is outrageous. Just imagine, 2.5%!!

But on a more serious note, this article is again wrong, like so many others about climate change. Being a combination of clickbait and false assumptions, it fails to miss the point entirely that first, 2.5% are irrelevant, but also that it makes no sense whatsoever to tackle this now. The technology is just not there yet.

What we urgently NEED to do is invest HUGE amounts of money into two key technologies. One is batteries. Make them as small, lightweight and efficient as possible. Pretty much everything depends on that and there has been no notable breakthrough in like forever... Without "super" batteries, we can kiss "preventing climate change" goodbye.

Another one is sucking the carbon out of the atmosphere. And no, we DON'T need to reduce our carbon emission, one of the key mistakes people make when it comes to climate change. What we need to do is to suck out more than we put in. There is no way in hell that 200 countries in the world agree on being C02 neutral. The leading countries need to suck the shit back out, that is the only way forward.

As for all the people who preach changing the entire world by reducing emissions... I mean, I get you are very naive, but seriously: It's not gonna happen. It is cute to have girl sail through the Atlantic to make so pep talk at congress. But it is also really meaningless. This is not the way the world will change. It never has. Politicians can't agree on the color of shit within their own country, not to mention between them.

The only way to avoid catastrophe is to outpace climate change with innovation. The world is not going to sacrifice living standards until they all drown in their own filth.

Yes, but console games never get anywhere near the steep discounts or the sheer number of them that PC digital games get.

I'm sure PC gaming can _survive_ this but surviving is not the same as "nothing will change" nor is it "it's going to be better overall". That remains to be seen.

We should be smacking around ISPs anyway, just to remind them that as limited-liability corporations with government-issued charters they exist in their current form on public sufferance and must remember their place while they still have one. We the people are sovereign and have the right to demand that the officials we elect to govern on our behalf regulate corporations to serve the public good instead of pursuing shareholder value uber alles.

This being the case, I don't see any reason why ISPs be permitted to say that individuals should not be allowed to run internet-accessible websites or gopher holes out of their homes. I think enacting reasonable legislation to force ISPs to allow residential customers to use their service to publish content as well as consume it will create a richer and more robust internet.

Now, if you still find the notion of forcing corporations to do things objectionable, it might help to remember that corporations are not human beings. They have no inherent rights, only powers defined by law. They are like governments in that regard.

You have the right to run a business and work for a profit. You do not have the right to do so from behind the aegis of a LLC. That is a privilege.
QE does not expand the monetary base so it can't cause inflation. It's also not "printing money" as the media likes to call it.

>what would actually happen is that discovery of unlicensed firearms on private property (for instance, when responding to a police report) would become a criminal matter

And do you think they're going to poke their noses equally around homes belonging to known gun owners as they do those of non gun owners?

>people are far more dependent on cars than on firearms

Sure, but some people benefit a lot more from the proliferation of firearms than other people do, and the people who are harmed by the proliferation of firearms have a much stronger motivation to remove them than do people that are harmed by the proliferation of cars.

No one is really concerned that the government is going to stop people from being able to drive cars without a viable alternative that works for the vast majority. There is concern that the government is going to stop normal people from owning guns, eventually. They don't need to confiscate them to do that, they just need to institute mandatory background checks so it's illegal to hand your guns down to your kids without government permission, and gradually make it more difficult to get a license, and then legal gun owners die off and all there are left are the lawbreakers.
