Just so we're all on the same page, they're applying their own pre-stated rules to people all over the world. I'm not advocating that what they're doing is right but lets not make things up.
I hate using ^ to indicate an offending position on a line. For those unfamiliar, the idea is that you display two lines, the erroneous one, and one full of spaces, with a single ^ in it, where the ^ is directly underneath the offending character. This is bad for accessibility and screen readers. They read that the ^ is here, but actually finding out what the wrong character is is problematic. Python does this, I think Rust too, and now Elm. Just provide a column number next to the line number, just like Golang does. Any decent editor will let me check what column I'm on. The ^ can, of course, be kept for the rest, but the column number would be a welcome addition.

That’s right. It is a supplemental measure impacted by housing costs. Which in turn is driven by unprecedented economic growth and NIMBY population. But is very different than poor people not having access to healthcare, food, schools etc
Microeconomics classes in America teach undergrads that 'rational' people only care about increases in wealth and do not care about non-wealth-increasing activities. It is such a wrong model about human behavior but it gets repeated like gospel every year at most schools in the country. So it's no wonder that people are out there, suggesting that we're all idiots for not focusing exclusively on wealth accumulation through our 20s as they were taught that is what 'rational' people do.

It's a tactless question, sure, but it should also be expected from a society that idolizes wealth the way ours does.

You’re looking at it way to black and white.

I would bet if Gates had been born in Rwanda, he would have stood a good chance of being successful there, better than average.
well, it depends on whether your in a high margin or low margin business or and whether or not your a monopoly business. Amazon, entertained many offers from many cities to find the best tax incentives.

I would imagine businesses that compete with low margins would be looking for such incentives.

I canceled my Prime membership a few months ago. I never bought food on Amazon, but I received plenty of counterfeit or obviously used and broken items sold as new. I went back through my order history recently and it was over 10% of my orders in the last three years had issues. And I wasn't buying from the marketplace if I could help it.

There are still some things I have to go through great lengths to buy other places (Furnace filters for a reasonable price, mouse bait station poison etc) but I think it's worth it. I don't give Amazon a dollar if I can help it.

Seems like this is a free will argument. In a reductionist view, yes, everything is all blind luck because the universe was set in motion at the Big Bang and has evolved according to the laws of physics since. If you got rich through intelligence, determination, and good choices, that was still luck because your intelligence and determination are largely determined by your genes and your choices by your environment, both of which were determined before you were born.

This argument may be true but it isn't very useful, because the concept of "useful" itself implies free will and active decision-making. In other words, yes, maybe it was all predetermined before we were born, but if you're the sort of person that believes in free will, that decision was predetermined before you were born, so why challenge that belief? And the reason we evolved to believe in the fiction of free will is because humans who did do better than those who don't, so whether it's correlation or causation, it's still adaptive.
As a buyer sometimes the deals are absurdly good. For example got my daughter a hardcover Harry Potter Cursed Child for $3 Like New, and that included next day delivery. Shows up as described, and I just saved $15.

I’m slightly ashamed to admit I was actually at BN at the time where they were selling it for $30. But I did spend $100 during that trip, on books that were comparably priced to Amazon.

I assume Cursed Child is an outlier because I’d guess a huge number of people are buying it expecting it to be something it’s not, and then likely returning or offloading the book in disappointment.

Obviously no one made money on the transaction so I assume it was a buggy algorithm, but I’m not complaining!
AlgoVPN: Set up a personal VPN in the cloud
You can't frame things like this without talking about misfortune in the same terms. Lots of things can happen that are 'unluckly', but are vastly skewed to certain demographics. Being unlucky like:

* Receiving little or no schooling

* Having to labour as a child

* Being abused

* Having your primary carers be addicts of some kind

* Growing up in a relatively poor/deprived

* ...

Really this list is endless, and other than blind luck (a lotto win, something that can really elevate you out of this situation, as well as having the sense to use the opportunity correctly), no amount of 'hustle' is really going to get you out of this situation.

The kind of attitude in parent's comment is prevalent amongst people who have grown up in relatively rich, successful environments, and see vastly more lucky people than unlucky people (when in reality there are orders of magnitude more unlucky people than lucky).

Not perfect, but, its decent.

I still use it and will continue to do so until someone releases a better ecosystem.

Right now I get an alert on my phone if someone rings the bell, or leaves/removes a package. Plus with facial recognition I get alerts which include the person's name for common visitors (via facial recognition) and will announce visitors via a set of google home minis. Nest will alert my phone if the smoke detector sees smoke or CO. I'm obviously quite "all in" on their ecosystem.

I also will note I have an elderly relative at home as well as 3 dogs and we are not there most days so the ability to see what's going on at home and potentially take action like calling the police/fire/EMS is extremely valuable to me.

I don't see anything in the article about those claims being false. Where did you get that?
Blizzard is perfectly fine with politics if they think it won't hurt their bottom line. They've been fairly supportive of the LTGB movement in their western markets. It's why the statement about China having no influence over their decision is such obvious bullshit.

Life, in most cases, is built upon all 4 points listed by OP with a varying degree of applicability. If magically, everyone decided to just accept 1 without doing any of the others, you would likely find society going down the drain or the few who attempt 2,3 or 4 with an exceptional return of investment.

I find it difficult to undermine all four 'kinds of luck' when you look at someone studying hard to get into a certain university, or you look at a foreigner deciding to uproot their lives to hopefully get a better life in US/Canada,etc or someone who decided to knock on every door to get their first client and hone their skills throughout that process.

Sorry! I built it using the Spectacle web slides toolkit, and have only looked at it in Chrome and Firefox because that's what I use myself.
IPMI does not have to be open to the internet to be open to a wide audience. Many of these out of band management interfaces are hosted on an internal network, but not isolated by customer.

Cheap datacenters are favored by VPN providers for their unlimited bandwidth and lax abuse policies.

Many of them allow access to IPMI only over a VPN, but do not isolate each customer’s IPMI to a customer VLAN. I personally know at least three large budget datacenters which allow all customers access to each others’ “private” IPMI IP addresses.

>> Why not do the study?

Hmm; I don't think we fully understand each other.

Absolutely do the study; in fact, do several.

What then, though? A "study of studies", or any method of reconciling or making sense of these multiple studies, is the "meta analysis" in question. It's going to happen, in some way, somehow, by somebody. There is no way to reconcile multiple studies without doing some form of what we are calling meta-analysis. Even if it's just you or me googling it up and then deciding which of the studies to trust, that's a "meta-analysis".

My claim, therefore, is that it's far better to acknowledge this need and reality, and have dedicated teams of experienced professionals do it with an open, consistent method; then for each of us to mentally, subconsciously, "biasedly", to pick & choose and prioritize the studies.

[in the end, proper meta-analysis, and study replication, are the methods of how we discover inconsistency, contradiction, data issues, or other problems, whether in psychology or other domains. It's not a method of "fixing something", but a method of collecting, analyzing, and reporting on multiple studies and data points]
Absolutely. I'm not saying that luck plays no role. It clearly does. But it's not, as the article claims, "just luck" (unless you don't believe in free will, in which case it is).

Parenthetically, I was born poor. My family had very little money when I was born, and what little they had they left behind in the old country when we immigrated to America. So I was poor when I was really young, and middle class by the time I left high school, thanks to the hard work (and maybe luck) of my parents.

But your point is taken... if I was really poor when it came time to work and I refused to do so, then I'd feel the lash of the economic whip, as I'm just about to do so now as I've burnt through my savings yet again....
For awhile, my brain conflated it with [OpenVPN-NL](https://openvpn.fox-it.com/about.html), a publicly-available, hardened version of OpenVPN used by the Dutch government.

You can't really blame NordVPN for that (I mean, the Netherlands aren't even a Nordic country, my brain is just broken), but it's a data point.
How would you like to organise it? Like in your screenshot?

The experiment design was flawed in the following way. What if, in real life, there are people who are much more likely to take big chances with their whole career trajectory? Also, what if there are people who are much more likely to perceive which products will change the world, and when. The combination of these two qualities is the key.

Even if these qualities are distributed on a normal curve, the result of possessing the right combination of qualities will have an extremely large effect in a winner take all world.

Sure, there will be some randomness involved. Start with two kids who both have the same optimal qualities, and only one will end up a billionaire. But my guess is that the second kid will also end up ahead of the average. If the simulation did not end up with this result, then my guess is that something was left out of the simulation.

Thanks for those articles.

On the damage Wifi is shown to do here, let's say it doesn't only show up in sperm but also in other cells.

Now imagine a pregnant woman, the unborn child being a girl. She's five months into her pregnancy. The unborn girl has at this point in time, in her own ovaries, already developed fully all the egg-cells she'll have for the rest of her life. Now imagine damaging those cells. How long before that shows up? Two generations.

It pains me to see pregnant women carelessly using an iPad on their belly to watch Netflix.

Sorry for ranting, thanks again for the info.
The thing about cycles is, well, they're cyclical. That means on a long enough time scale they factor out. That's why it's easier to predict the long-term climate than it is to predict what the weather will be tomorrow, next week, or next year.

It's not that they're more trustworthy it's that you have more control. They could be feeding traffic to the NSA as well but you can encrypt it yourself -- with VPN services like Nord you're relying on other people to do that for you but often VPN services can offer convenience services like country switching etc but if security is what you're after then cloud providers and setting up your own VPN seems like a more reliable alternative.

3. In terminal: ssh -i ssh_key -D your_chosen_port user@ip_address
Is it still survivorship bias if it took 20 failed attempts before a successful one?
It is the same for men, too. I had everything set up to retire at 35... then I married. Sure, I am a more socially productive person now. My kid will someday pay taxes that will finance the retirement of people that didn't bother to have kids.
Stratechery is another good choice.
I think at this point it's just an excuse for sub-par distribution networks. Or an excuse for poor playback compatibly. Or maybe even a way to save on bandwidth.

It gets them out of any contractual or common law minimum level-of-service complaints.
Then they need to be called on every instance of hypocrisy in word and deed. If every company lies... maybe there's a learning point there.

There seems to be many “all or nothing” arguments here.

How about a “maybe it’s a factor and we should do some research first because we just don’t know” argument?

Honestly, my alarm bells ring when people get this polarized and passionate about a topic that shouldn’t be that intense.

1. China accounts a small fraction of their income

2. The government's demands are only going to get more onerous from here.

3. The Chinese government isn't going to let an American company have open access to their markets for long. I guarantee they have a plan to replace Blizzard (and the NBA and every other foreign company) with domestic companies.
Is there additional cost to not comingle? I can't find it mentioned after some searches.

I wonder, at what point would it be economical to pay the additional costs to not comingle product?

Would adding "For customer assurance, we do not comingle our product with other products sold on Amazon" yield additional purchases? At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if nobody looks at your posting because it's 3-20% more exoensive than the knockoffs.

Oil is half the value of Saudi Arabia. The other half is US support. Since WWII the deal has never changed: cheap oil in exchange of military support.

Saudi deals are effectively backed by US.

And a country like Saudi, whose fortune solely depends on exports, can't bend the rules of trade and contract too much. It is very easy to sanction.

Kashoggi is what killed the project MbS had with this money (the futuristic city NEOM, read about it, that was interesting). MbS had spent a lot of resources painting himself as a progressive reformist, ready to make KSA evolve out of the charia law.

That killing put him back down the scale of dictators. He admit it made his project lose at least 10 years and that it was unsellable right now.

Economic growth? How does the imaginary game of wealth-points intersect with preserving the planet's ecosystem?

I can imagine many scenarios for saving the planet, that are detrimental to human interests. Nuke all major population centers, for instance. Ban burning oil entirely. Begin sequestering all crops in the bottom of the ocean as CO2 sinks.

To confuse human trivia with planetary disaster is one of the first refuges of naive deniers - "Well, we sure can't go without our cars, don't be ridiculous!"
Obviously browsers should add color codes support. JS frameworks should make color output optional. But this is hardly sufficient to say the language errors are uninformative. Just a bug with a logically straightforward solution.
I develop key performance indicator software for my company's manufacturing plants. It's basically a real time analytics dashboard that also trends data over time. One of the results of this software has been a better understanding of the efficiencies (or really the lack thereof) and bottlenecks in our processes. Identifying and understanding these KPIs has allowed our pilot plant to cut significant labor costs without losing any productivity (no one was fired, the positions in question weren't refilled due to attrition, which is always high in a manufacturing job).

My point being, it isn't just robots and automation that reduce the labor workforce. Better data and analytics are also having an effect, a trend I don't see slowing down. As the market continues to shrink for the blue collar workforce, something will definitely need to happen so as to not disenfranchise large groups of people. Whether a freedom dividend is the answer or not is up for debate. I think it will help more than it will harm. There's always going to be someone who finds a way to game the system (the perceived welfare queens). For many, though, an extra $1000 a month would literally be life-changing.
You can look at it two ways.

First. You had an idea and went with that one that worked out, that’s luck. Also luckily, you had the physical, mental and monetary capacity to follow through with it, is lucky to have these resources.

Second way to look at it. You were smart to reject many ideas because you had the experience and smarts to say no to non-sense. Also you had the grit and persistence to grind it out despite all the challenges.

Ok which way was it?
The depth of programming is following the code down to electricity, like the Ben Eater youtube videos show. What you want that code to do has it's own depths; math, ml, ai, games, business ect.

It's not like classical art or architecture where the principles closer to all commanding or 'figured out'. Your everyday work is like swimming through code solving problems as you go. Pushing blocks into permanent place never works, they find a way of getting crufty, old and replaced to fit new requirements. I imagine any field that deals with flowing quantities of objects, or fluid-like systems would have structural overlaps with programming. Fields like plumbing, finance, the energy sector, ect.

I would describe programming to be at it's very base to be ascribing meaning to quantities of meaningless numbers and building a structure to pipe those numbers around to a qualitative result.

Measuring principles in depth here is not that useful, the river of valuable information runs left to right in code. You'll likely restrict how deep and how abstract you go and instead focus on churning out a high quantity of solved problems. It's just not that useful to be thinking in machine code when you're programming in C++, but knowing all the functions of C++ and where it should be ending up is very important.
That might be true. If 500.000 people block every big street in a city, you will read the signs and think about the cause. What a protest can afford depends on how many are protesting.

Going to the specific event in question, the convention of Activision Blizzard, if one person tries to blocks the event with protest, they will be removed, if necessary by physical force. If sufficiently many block the event with protest, the protest will be successful.
I don't want or need health insurance to cover routine health care/maintenance. My car insurance doesn't cover oil changes. I think we need to start with getting to affordable routine health CARE [checkups]. The fact that many family insurance plans cost $1000s a month in premiums and don't kick in until $10,000+ of deductible is spent first is ridiculous. People that have coverage still don't go to the doctor until they are very sick to avoid the high costs, this compounds things because the cost to deal with a minor respiratory issue is drastically less than when/if it turns into pneumonia.
