After years of unsatisfactory personal research of various schools od economics I had to come to conclusion they are all flawed because they completely omit the important parts which govern our economy.

For example having all economical models based around people exchanging goods and not focusing on why money actually disappears from economy in form of monopolies and money parked in real estate. It always has to be poured back into economy in form of money stimuli like QE, yet people are blind to the fact that it yet again gets eaten up by ever bigger monopolies and more expensive real estate. A simple network model of money circulating in economy would show that these sinks are where the money keeps disappearing.

Yet no economic school has its primary focus set on these money eating sinks. The closest school is actually the once mighty, now close to extinct Georgist school, in which they at least explain the business cycle of booms and busts as housing cycle, where housing bust is not some random consequence of a business going bonkers, but housing (actually land speculation) being the major cause of these cycles.

If you think about it 100% of population (except for hobos) are involved in real estate market and paying close to 50% of paycheck on housing in some form. Yet all economics focus on stock and bond markets and exchange of random little items even though these are dwarfed by the housing markets.

I don't think it is a conspiracy, but laziness. People like to research things which are easy to research, but not things which are difficult but important.
> Surely Amazon has a history of who bought what from who

They don't necessarily. Amazon combines items from different sellers together in their warehouses, and doesn't sort them out when picking orders to ship. So if I send them a high quality doohickey to sell with FBA, a customer who orders my doohickey might actually receive Mr. Cheapo's knock-off doohickey because as far as Amazon is concerned they're the same thing and got placed in the same bin in the warehouse.

Sellers can opt out of this but then Amazon charges them more.
My company’s stack is a node.js API with a web app that’s a combination of next.js and a single page React app. Our scale isn’t massive either (~50k active users) but since the entire thing is written in Javascript it means all our engineers can work on all parts of the app. It’s kind of like how some airline companies only buy one type of plane so all their pilots can fly all their planes.

Haven’t experienced any “bottlenecks” but again we aren’t at huge scale or anything and we don’t have any heavy blocking computations where the single Javascript thread would be a problem.
There is a quite mature configuration language nix that is behind nixpkgs, nixos, and many other projects. Worth checking out for others here that are interested in abstractable configuration langauges. It is a functional lazily evaluated language.
Five Reasons I Work at a Startup-And why you should too
Someone with a better understanding of CPU architectures and instruction sets may be able to correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't it be more accurate to say that Microsoft is working on bringing x86-64 emulation to Windows 10 on ARM? No doubt the headline is written to be a bit more consumer-friendly.

AMD pioneered this version of the instruction set with AMD64, and Intel actually adopted it as Intel 64, with minor differences[0].

How much energy are you going to expend to ensure that hundred-trillion+ kilogram rock can fall at the rate desired by the prior positor? Half a kilometer a second is supersonic speed. We get 1.3E+19 J now as the energy level we need to fight against. That's higher than a 100 megaton nuke by two orders of magnitude. Now fight against that every second! Don't forget to calculate the pull of gravity as well! There's still more numbers to pop into the equation!

We don't have the energy capacity to begin with. The rock would smash into us, and we'd die.
Have you never been in a place where a murder was later committed? Have you never had personal contact with someone later raped?

There’s a temptation to compute “1 in a billion” probabilities, have a computer or science wizard process spit them out and for investigators to conclude the person who matches is the one. I’m more worried about the possible lazy or sloppy interpretation and curve-fitting aspects of the tech than I am worried about me flipping out and committing a felony offense.

I am likewise glad for the cases where it is helping to correctly solve crimes, of course.
This is EXACTLY what I did, and I agree there are soooo many opportunities like this. I think most people are risk averse to it as they think the API might get shut off, but I look at it as a really quick way to build something. If it gets cut off, on to the next.
Literally there's a green download box on the front page, up and to the right. It will give you the most commonly used installer.

You could also press / and type "download" and it's the first hit.

The Book of Endless History
What's actually the point in those point releases?

Don't understand me wrong, I'm running Debian on all my servers, but on the desktop I'm in love wit the rolling release model.

Is it just to overcome the initial upgrade inertia?
I actually made the same gut speculations in common conversation earlier when IBM bought Red Hat (SAP buying SuSE, Microsoft buying Canonical). It was nice to see this post that flushed out the rationale in more detail.
Not sure if this is in relation to the previous ban on Limor's account, but that highlights an important mitigation strategy in today's world of centralized cloud providers: create separate accounts for each independant service you need from the provider, and especially, separate personal and company accounts.

Imagine getting your company's marketing operations in jeopardy because you forgot to censor a painting with nude people before sharing it on your personal Facebook feed. Or getting locked out of your website hosting because you used Gmail to send a bunch of event invites that got flagged as spam.
It's called a human trial, and it's applied to all prescription medications.
Decision making is not all about math.

I simplify it to two things:

1. Goal

2. Process.

First, you pick goals that makes you happy. I think the big fallacy people make is assuming that marriage+kids makes me unhappy vs being single. You can be perfectly happy doing either. You can be completely unhappy with both paths too.

It's also extremely difficult to decide which one would make you happier. Sure, there are frameworks for each. But the variance is huge. And 'happiness' isn't a fixed number. It's a Δ. Whether you're at 500 happiness or 5, you feel the same.

You can be married to a dream girl, have a dream job, have a million dollars in the bank. Then suddenly someone steals half a million from your bank account. You would still be unhappier than the 45 year old homeless man who got offered a grocery manager job.

So, I look for the Δhappiness.

It's also important not to turn back on decisions. I'm married and have two kids. I cannot choose to have one kid. Even if I had financial troubles or found a better girl, divorce or infidelity would make me very unhappy. There's no way I would put a goal in mind to reduce the number of kids or find a woman good enough to have an affair with. There's no way I can regret past decisions and be happy too.

One of the downsides of overcalculating is that you'd tend to assign values to things and inevitably regret something.

So I pick a goal, any goal that makes me happy and is achievable, and then burn the other options.

Next is process.

I look for the best process to hit that goal. And just stick to it. I chose a path as a startup developer. I optimize to be the best startup developer I can be, and ignore the things that would land me a job as a manager, CEO, or a FAANG developer.

Now abandon the goal completely. I may reassess my situation periodically, but I don't stay too obsessed on being a developer. If Google offers me an interview, why not?

Goals are difficult to hit because of all the factors in the way. It's easier to just focus on the progress. It's what athletes do win trophies and break records. Nobody can set a promise to win a match 3-0; they can only improve the process to overshoot that goal. Hitting a goal can cause complacency, missing a goal can discourage. Let the process do its work.

If you commit on focusing on your career and not having kids, then design a process to make you the best career man you can be. If you choose to do both kids and career, design a process to be a great dad while being great at your job with your limited hours. If there's no chemistry between you and your partner, create some.

Remember to ditch all the math that got you to your current situation. When assessing the future, you have to recalculate everything.
How has your experience been with Pulumi? I tried it back in its alpha days to compare to terraform but I didn’t make much progress due to lack of documentation and limited ecosystem.
You're taking the least charitable interpretation of that sentence, reading it as "all" or "most" economist teaching government's primary role is price stability. That is apparently false (I'll take your word for it).

In a more charitable reading, he's reacting to one or a few instances where it is taught but shouldn't. That could be accurate, if contextually misleading and possibly myopic.

Discounting his argument based on factual errors is fine, but given that you only bring one counterpoint to the table, "another non-economist getting famous for criticizing economics from a position of comprehensive ignorance" sounds like an argument from authority.
The startup may be new, but the rain lottery has been around for a while. Are car dealers really just now getting wind (no pun intended) of it?
It's actually the x86-64 instruction set, that is to say, the 64-bit version of x86. AMD created the first implementation of this set with AMD64, and Intel then adopted it with their own flavor as Intel 64. I don't think the headline is as accurate as it could be. Probably wrote the headline with the assumption that "most readers" would better understand "64-bit Intel" than "x86-64" but they might be underestimating their readers! And even then, it's officially called "Intel 64" according to Wikipedia.

Well, if they're bought, then that will have to change designation as a "feature".
Great question. It’s not about the money, but more about how I was passive for too long just letting it be. I’ve waited to invest in several things for growth until I knew had the market cornered. I’m not too concerned about adding more features now, so the only next logical step is growth.

Growing from $6M to $10M didn’t seem huge at the time, but now it does...
Ubuntu also has a nice aarch64 image for raspberry pi 4.
Putting on my academic Econ hat for a moment: There’s probably a stronger argument for including housing costs like rent into CPI than asset value like home values. Assets like homes are supposed to be illiquid and relatively constant over time. Ie little change in the underlying fundamentals of the item or changes that can be accounted for in an uncomplicated way. When such stable in underlying value but relatively illiquid assets like homes trade their realized prices are supposed to reflect little more than inflation. So maybe their price changes make more sense on the exogenous side of the equation than the endogenous?

Is this argument still valid? It seems like it would be since it still seems moving in and out of a mortgage is a longer (by months) process than moving in or out of a lease.
What's the point of this applause light? Surely it's obvious that none of this should be relevant to the court case.

Cool yea we'll need a web app soon and i think going with Next.js and React will be a no brainer. I'm really interested in companies that do this at scale though. What's the downside? Why doesn't everyone do it?
Bingo, although the YAUs is a bit lower than that for obvious reasons. However, simple solution for these places to depend on for in person charges.

Though the private jet company and exotic car rental place are a touch higher than that.

I wouldn't consider reading to be an arduous process.
There is always the possibility that you will be incorrectly identified by an investigative technique, dna or otherwise. This is not a remote chance; it happens all the time. In my view, this does not increase that probability very much, but it massively improves the odds of finding criminals. Remember that the mere presence of DNA is not alone grounds for a conviction. There is still the matter of alibis, motives, and all those traditional avenues of forensic inquiry.

As to your questions, as far as I know, nobody has ever been murdered in a place where I've been. Maybe on the sidewalk somewhere, but that is not a scenario where DNA is going to be any help, unless the perpetrator leaves behind blood or skin on the victim or the ground. And I've never had sexual contact with anyone who was subsequently raped, nor anyone who didn't already know me for that matter. But it hardly matters whether those things have happened to me personally. What matters is how often that happens in the world, and what fraction of the time this leads to incorrect prosecution.
People who likes Go's simplicity, have you ever looked into the even simpler syntax of lisps? For example, Clojure have minimal amount of syntax, that once you know, you know the entire language. The rest is just libraries that you use, the actual program/data structures or language modifications (macros) that each codebase usually employs a bit different depending on needs. But lisp languages are really, really simple, even more simple than Golang (or any C like language) can be.

Take a look at this (short) page which describes ALL the syntax of Clojure (except macros) if you're interested: https://clojure.org/guides/learn/syntax
I know the wording "just the old keyboard" is meant as clickbait, but for those of us who have used the butterfly keyboard, we pretty much interpreted this as "just the old, awesome keyboard, yeah baby!"
That's fantastic :)

Till there's a global solution to the energy problem we'll need oil. Existing solutions are nowhere close to being sufficient, therefore divestment will have no impact on the amount of oil burned. It's ridiculous to think that clicking a sell button on some assets will fix global warming, that's not how the world works.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_energy_consumption

As Bill Gates says, we need to fight two fronts of misinformation: a) that global warming is not a problem, and b) that it is an easy problem.
I understand the logic behind the Raspberry Pi Foundation’s decision to continue releasing a single Raspberrian version in 32-bit mode for compatibility reasons, but... on the other hand, it does severely handicap their newer hardware.
Sooner or later followed by the next step: interpreting the DNA to identify people who are genetically likely to commit a certain crime.
Clojure Deps.edn
If newly minted money is spent on economic investment it generally creates economic growth rather than inflation (in general: obviously there are specific investments individual companies can make which drive up prices and it is possible for a rapidly-growing economy to run into short term supply constraints). Sure, the money will flow to the workers who will have more money to spend than they previously did, but it only does so because they are also making more stuff for the additional cash circulating to be used to buy...
Because we've been hearing such phrases so often that we are now immune.
> "This work is predicated on a key observation that a mixed numerical and analytic approach can be more powerful than a purely analytical method. Instead of attempting to find analytic solutions with brute force, we use a numerical approach that leverages TensorFlow for the initial search for solutions to the model. This then yields hypotheses on which specific combinations can be tested and analyzed with stringent mathematical methods, ultimately proving the actual existence of a conjectured solution. This represents a novel methodology for making further progress in theoretical physics."

This paragraph makes it sound like they invented the entire idea of using numerical experiments to find promising paths for analytic studies.
Replying to myself to avoid an edit as this is a new topic.

I’m wondering increasingly lately if oil hasn’t replaced gold and fiat as the underlying backer value of currency. We had a problem in Econ to contrast and compare fiat currency to gold backed currency. Fiat is supposed to not be tied to a scarce resource and thus central banks have the ability to influence market growth through currency growth. Gold or resource backed currency can only grow at the rate new stock is removed from the ground. Of course, oil complicates there concept as oil is irreversibly consumed when it’s burned. The value of it still greatly affects market growth potentials though.
> Having jars only work with specific oracle JVM versions is not at all unusual.

I think that underscores the point? That even legitimate JVM versions were not substitutable for each other.
You're stunning me here. It's like you're objecting to someone saying gymnasts are coordinated or air traffic controllers can handle a lot of stress. Intelligence is a core qualification for programming, like height for basketball. You can't say "I play basketball, so I'm taller than others", but you can say "We're all basketball players, so we're likely taller than most". We're _selected_ for intelligence.
Just because a there is a law or policy doesn’t mean it’s not abused or the policy is 100% effective. China is a great example of bureaucracy and keeping up appearances while the reality is starkly different, but it happens in the US too.

Still, what's your motivation for wanting to grow more? Money can be a legitimate motivation, but you said that's not it. I guess I'm curious what drives you now.
I'd bet jiveturkey was joking.
They could have used a different system (LLVM?) and Java would have become irrelevant on mobiles.
If you are a criminal, it might be wise to send them someone else's DNA in your own name. From someone who is not in the register and never gets there, maybe dies soon. When they start to eliminate suspects based on DNA you get dropped.
It's just a cumulative update to their stable release. Debian usually releases one every few months.
Not at all, it’s a drastic change in meaning in title between original article and HN.

Given the huge breadth of complaints against the butterfly keyboard, the title saying that the keyboard of a ‘new’ MacBook is the same as the ‘old’ MacBook suggests keyboard hasn’t changed. But it clearly has, which is the point of the article.

The inclusion of a single additional word “good” clarifies the new keyboard matches the old version BEFORE the butterfly keyboard.
I wonder if Apple will beat them to it.
As a long-time Clojure user, I find the claims that many Clojurists put forth that Clojure “has a minimal amount of syntax” to be quite misleading, especially toward beginners.

I think Clojure has a lot of syntax. The syntax is just embedded in a number of conventions, macro mini-languages, and the reader syntax itself. Because Clojure’s syntax can be extended in user space (via macros and related tooling), the syntax also grows more rapidly than other communities.

As a professional programmer who came from Python, Java, C, and JavaScript, I found a lot about Clojure compelling, but “minimal syntax” was not one of the compelling points. To the contrary, I think there is a lot more to learn in Clojure than other languages about how to properly structure your code.

As I wrote in my blog post comparing Python and Clojure:

> ... the Python programmer will observe that in the Clojure program, many aspects of the program are implied, rather than annotated by special syntax. Many Clojure proponents will say that Clojure has a “simple syntax”, but I think this is misleading. They don’t mean simple as in “easy to read without prior context”. They mean simple as in “unceremonious”. Perhaps they mean simple as a contrast to “baroque” (how you might describe Java or C++’s syntax). Clojure does have a syntax, but it is implicit from the layout of the code in the list data structures.

I’m not sure if I trust people enough to be using DNA in the legal system of today. Let alone police with the bad actors that are attracted to the career.

The one law protection service I wish would be created is a way for opting-in to have my iPhone track location & record audio 24/7; with the guarantee of privacy for the data and able to be viewed only with consent (whenever being alleged to have committed a crime). It’s a work in progress thought I’ve been thinking about because I’ve been in a few situations where having a recording could have been potentially life changing in benefiting my recollection of what happened. Police don’t even let you audio record interrogations with your own personal phone. Although one should never even speak to the police and just request their lawyer on the spot.

Alternatively if intervention techniques can be found that work, these people can be treated before they go on the path to anti social behavior and may become “habilitated”.

Obviously there is a big red flag about what gets classified as this criminal behavior, but if we can keep it to immediate acts of violence, then it may possibly be worthwhile.

This really depends on the data. In pharma the right 50 bytes of data can be worth billions. Not all data is personal product preferences for add targeting.
