> it's a brain drain and time suck in most of the ways that TV was for everyone in the same routine 20 years ago

I mean, I won't claim I never lose time on YT same as I used to on TV, occasionally, but as far as "brain drain" and "time suck" are concerned, it kinda depends on what you're into. I spend countless hours watching tech talks, math/sci news and teachings, podcasts with my heroes (on AI, CS, philosophy..) Some of it (most I'd say) helps in my work (not by chance, ofc).

Nowadays is by far the best audiovisual average quality of content I've ever had in my life (37 here), because I have the choice of what and when (even where & how with a phone). And it's not like I could ever watch all that's worthy so I can select with excruciatingly high standards (my motto with most media: consume only the very best, ditch everything else: you still won't have enough time to run of content, ever).

I think ultimately it's more about control, decisions we make for ourselves, provided the options are there (e.g. couldn't help but eat TV shit on some hours; can't blame myself for having rest time at the 'wrong' hour of TV, hence why I played so much video games back then maybe, which are much 'easier' and deeper time vortexes than any other video form content, IME).

I say, 'when in doubt, read a book'. Can't go wrong with doing that even if the book is mediocre.
In 2008+ when they “printed money” via “Quantitative Easing”, they would buy bonds off the market. This puts printed money in the hands of bond holders. Presumably bond holders are very rich. Presumably very rich people already have a good enough car and already frequent restaurants. Now if the Fed printed money and put it in the hands of the middle class, not just the hands of the upper class, I’d bet you new cars would be bought and restaurants would be dined.

I STR that relationship's been challenged in recent years.
That, Prime Video, some knitting thing, probably more than that tbh. We don't share a TV so I don't have a clue what she watches.

> Define "too low". The world is awash in capital.

You defined it in the next sentence. Capital should be the judge of prospectuses - i.e. of ideas to implement in the real world. When there's too much capital there's no judge (i.e. it's not really capitalism any more).

All bubbles are a consequence of too much money and too much credit/faith in something.
I am inclined to believe this is accurate, however I don’t know anything about the organization producing the report.

Can anyone fill me in in regards to their credibility?
Indeed. Which is the perfect occasion to ask: who besides Fastmail implements it ?
I think very few people who block Google Analytics are actually aware that they do it. They install an adblock to block annoying ads and enable privacy options to block scary trackers because they read somewhere that if they don’t do it they can be hacked and have their nudes leaked. Those are stuff done by shady companies and bad guys. Google is not one of those, it’s a respectable company. Only paranoid nerds who use that weird duck site go out of their way to block Google.
When you say publicly fund emergencies, do you mean that it is covered, or that you will get a bill in the mail, but you won't be denied care; it's just that you have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars after the fact?

In Oregon, where this all took place, that is not the case.
At G you still get to fly in before. Amazon has enough money. They just don't want to spend it on employees. There's a reason churn is so bad there.

Let's put it this way.

I'd rather program single core applications on my i5-4690k than any other ryzen series chips including threadrippers with 12+ cores.

I have used two threadrippers for more than 6 months.

Linux still runs faster on i5-4690k which is 6 years old
that has been the historical stance, but (for example) TLS is coming in the next release so it's going to be capable of being locked down unlike in the past
And they require an immense amount of skill to make, which means you can only find really good bread in communities where a baker artisan can run a sustainable business. In the age of home grocery delivery, it's an uphill battle.

The number of bakers in France has steadily gone down over the past half century or so. It's been going up a bit recently due to the new phenomenon of upper class white collar workers who quit their job in their 30s to find meaning in their life to do something more "noble" like baking, but it remains to be seen what the long term impact of this will be.

You can manufacture Twix and Cheetos at scale, but not baguettes.

>Questioning things was not something I was taught and I grew up to always follow the "rules".

>And I think that has (kind of) led to my current state where without rules I struggle to make decisions.

I worry that the newer generations brought up in zero tolerance environments will come late to questioning authority, if ever. Life is far more nuanced and negotiable than school and zero tolerance leads people to believe and folks like yourself who aren't equipped to think creatively in these situations have been robbed of a valuable skill.
FTA:

“ We also expect some institutional investors to start buying the dip on expectation of fiscal and monetary stimulus, virus spread being more contained in the West versus China due to the timely response from the respective health authorities . . .”

That seems overly optimistic as the U.S. has tested about 500 persons as of 03/01 per the CDC.
The top port does something like 4x the volume. Los Angeles is in the top 20 (just #17) but it isn't large.

I just told you what the volume is (you can check for yourself, all of this is public information) for other ports.

It won't take months. That is just not factually accurate, it takes a day or two to load the largest container ships, and they load more than one at once. It isn't "stacking up", that isn't how ports work...if you can't get space, you don't stack your stuff at the port, you just don't send it.
Aren’t you asked every time you reestablish a connection? If I unplug my iPhone (applies to Android too but with slightly different options) and plug it back into the computer I simply get prompted again. I think the trust is ephemeral and is forgotten the moment you disconnect from the USB port. From the phone’s perspective there doesn’t seem to be a trust store where devices are uniquely identified and remembered.
If everyone uses some common sense, washes hands, is on top of their symptoms and goes to the hospital, etc. everything will be fine.

Is that true though? Half the country gets a flu shot, yet between 10M and 50M still get the flu each year. And to be honest, I'd be very reluctant to go to a hospital for any reason right now unless I felt I was in danger of dying since everyone that thinks they might have coronavirus is going to be sitting in the waiting room beside me.

Is simple handwashing enough top stop the spread of this coronavirus, or is stronger isolation needed? China seems to have a handle on the infection growth but as far as I know, many areas are still on lockdown.
I hear your pain but the average American citizen has no say or control over the war machine and many are actually against it. It's also not as easy as "stop paying your taxes" unless you're willing to give up being part of society and live as a social outcast (best case) or be taken to court and ruin yourself. Not paying taxes is only possible if you're already part of the system that made you. US citizens also are taxed on their income even they decide to live outside the US, so there is no escape for them if they disagree (and who would denounce their citizenship unless they're asylum seekers or political refugees). Don't hate the player, hate the game as they say.

Except, in the case of big tech, Internships pay six figures.

There are other perks of being a grad student than just the pay though...

: sure, the internships aren’t typically a year long, but if you do the math for what’s paid for their duration it’s an incredible amount if it did last a year.

Wow, that seems really interesting that you might not need a very expensive setup to demonstrate entanglement then. I'm just reading more about the bell test.

Edit: I just found this talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tn1sEaw1K2k which looks really interesting 'Shanni Prutchi Construction of an Entangled Photon Source'. It looks like she's using SPADs for detection of the photons.
but for that you'd have to use a custom parser. If you use a custom parser you could put data in comments today anyways. I don't understand that argument.

From what I've been reading, it's looking like the most obvious immediate impact is a supply-side crunch, not demand-side.

Things are not getting made/made at normal rates, and that's starting to ripple up through supply chains.

This has really hit home for me. I'm pretty sick with a 102 fever, cough, and aches. My guess for various reasons is that it's influenza A, but there are reasons to think it's not crazy to think it's COVID19.

The issue is that there's this kind of positive feedback loop about getting tested. If you have symptoms consistent with COVID19, you're told it's probably the flu and no need to go in and get tested unless you're high-risk. People always say "have there been identified cases of COVID19 near you?" The answer is basically "not that I know of," but if everyone is staying home and not getting tested so as to not panic and overburden the system, you don't know. As a result, it will look like nothing's there until suddenly there's a de novo case that can't be traced to Asia, Europe, or anywhere else that's had large numbers of cases. Then it's too late and is everywhere.

I understand the base rates, and that I probably don't have COVID19, but I don't really have faith in assessments of where things are at if people are rarely getting tested anyway.
Yeah but Friedman wouldn't have had the info we have now. According to his thesis of shareholder value above all else, Groupon did exactly what they were supposed to.

I wonder how it would've turned out had Andrew been able to stick to his guns. But that was never an option since it was structured to IPO from the very beginning because of all that crap with thepoint . com

Don't believe they ever went bankrupt. Those stories you found might be the result of the dealsites not living up to the hype.

There was a significant period of time where many investors believed those sites were gonna create the next Google.

Their market cap is still around a billion I believe.
You are focusing on the death rate too much. People who get pneumonia from this end up with permanent lung damage even if they survive.
I mean that federal and state goverments provide subsidies to the hospitals to cover the shortfalls that can't be billed. As an individual you still end up screwed.
The suitcase is only 6.4 kilos, it's really light for what it does. It's just a thin shell basically. Monitor is 4 kilos. That leaves a bunch of room for other stuff. You don't have to use any of the packing material since it's so stiff, that helps a lot.

If you split one photon into 3 entangled ones of 1/3 the energy, what is the expected outcome of measurements? They cant all be mutually opposite, though photons dont have spin.
serious question: how effectively can things like non-nullability be bolted onto a language after it and a large part of its ecosystem has been created?

Can anyone tell me if the license as given

> Licensed for evaluation use only

Is clear enough in legal terms for what can or cannot be done ? I assume it means it's free to use to test it and see how it works, but not for anything else ? Does that cover the code too ?
Yeah, the expensive/hard part is generating & measuring only a single photon at a time. Of course if you fire a laser through an SPDC crystal a bunch of photon pairs will come out entangled, but that isn't terribly useful for most entanglement experiments.
There is only a handful of IMAP server implementations and there are going to be even fever JMAP servers. It is super bloated, the RFCs 8620 and 8621 are already 200 pages in total. Not an easy thing to integrate with.
to be fair, if you don't know any version control, and aren't willing to learn it (in 2020 of all things!) then why the ever-living christ should anyone put up with that?
It's interesting the difference between the US to the rest of the world. It seems like in the US people are really attached to big conglomerates products, whether it is Apple TV or Google chromecast while in many other countries the main thing I see people use are cheap Chinese Android boxes which seems to work really well with a simple remote without all the fanfare and connectivity to everything and what not.
Exactly, Paul Volker is the last Fed president that actually implemented a policy (of killing inflation), rather than just respond to what the market tells him to do.

He is remembered as a hero. Ray Dalio did an interview with Volker not long before Volker passed away:

It's not enough to produce entangled photons, you also have to be able to detect them individually. That's the expensive part.
I am not a Disney expert, but I USED to be, so take this with a grain of salt. I've been to the Anaheim resort several hundred times. To me, this looks a lot like you can now purchase celebrity tours.

I briefly dated a woman who did celebrity tours for Knotts Berry Farm, and it was more or less very similar to what they are describing. She had given tours to hundreds of celebs. It would always amaze me; she would say something like, "I have Leonardo DiCaprio on Tuesday, and Tom Hanks on Friday."

Before you get too upset-- celebrities can't go to theme parks. Their mean-free-path in a theme park is something like zero feet before someone stops them for an autograph or to chat.

But I don't even think this is a policy change. Disney has always had custom tours.
What would you do if we ran out of flu shots? Military lockdowns of cities? Of course not. We'd work to get vaccines while washing our hands with soap, and not paying any mind to it.
I saw something about changing the cable's hardware ids to avoid this. I guess you find a piece of hardware that you know is trusted by the target phone and then copy its hardware id onto the cable if you want to evade that warning.
>I never get the responsiveness that I get on my XBOX, and I can't rewind and fast forward with nearly the precision, either.

Comparing a $30 dongle and a multi hundred dollar computer seems a tad unfair. I'm not buying an xBox for my mom to watch Netflix.
> Regarding Jobs' quote, here's another way to look at it: the most beautiful hotel in the world wouldn't feel like such if all the toilets overflowed when flushed.

But this would be a functional problem, irritating at best and a potential health hazard at worst. Using plywood for the back of a chest of drawers is no such thing.
I disagree, since the 90s in Ireland every convenience store big enough to have a deli counter has been selling Cuisine de France baguettes. Usually as the popular breakfast roll or chicken fillet roll. They are mass produced and crispy, they are cooked in store by staff with no special training.

As well as linear and angular momentum. The latter is the most important quantities for quantum optics because that is what produces polarization correlations.
Right - I am by no means an expert on this but I feel far more worried about ripple effects than about the disease or even direct effects of supply chain disruption. In October the IMF warned about corporate debt levels which could cause serious issues with a recession half as bad as what we had in 2008 [1]. This seems like a similar kind of systemic risk as what ultimately caused most of the trouble during that recession, but most people are talking only about the direct effects of quarantine and supply chains.

Are you sure you can't use the title "engineer"? I thought it was only the very specific term Professional Engineer that is legally protected, and what someone looking to hire a licensed engineer would be on the look out for.

Edit: According to wikipedia, there are plenty of titles in Canada like locomotive engineer used by a train operator even though the position is unrelated to the Professional Engineer license [1].

I don't know. My friend managed to do this by accident - he had a pocket knife in his backpack that he forgot about. Just threw the backpack in the X-ray scanner and picked it up on the other side. Only noticed it when we were changing flights.

This was just a few years ago, a day or two after France had had one of its annual terrorist attacks.
There’s no shortage of folks being sold “key steps” to high paying jobs. Maybe their meter stick is different from yours, but taking that job as the night attendant at the hotel to move up the ranks or getting a salaried position as an assistant manager at Burger King as a path to a regional manager.

Lots of folks trying to sell you a path to success.

You have it exactly right. Photons are fungible. Splitting a photon is just like splitting a bitcoin. It makes no sense to say whether the output coins are "the same" as the input coins.
There is no clear solution if you value profits over human life, you mean.
Look at the distribution of equity returns. A melt up would be 3%+ down, and people panicking (we saw panic towards the end of last week). A recovery would be stop falling or gain on the week. I would put the recovery scenario at far better than chance though. It looks like 60-70% to me.

We may sell off more if things get worse later but right now, we have got through the point of maximum panic (just from what I witnessed, this was a December situation...I live in the UK so our December was motivated by Brexit but back then people were talking about stockpiling, etc. it was one of those times where you don't know whether to laugh or cry).
Not this exactly but similar - for some time I've wanted a charging cable with enough fast memory on it to act as a boot drive. Normal charging cable when plugged in on both ends, boot drive when only plugged in on one.

As an employer (IT consultancy), I in particular do not mark up for MS qualis. I generally drop those to the bottom of the stack for lacking originality if that is nearly all that is shown in support. I want to see things like engineering, maths and science degrees, actually any degree will do that shows critical thinking.

I'll take a HND in palaeontology in preference to a MS fellowship with a signed photo of Bill G over their headboard any day. At least I'll get someone who has legendary attention to detail and the ability to follow a chain of inferences and gather clues. They'll also be able to completely piss on anyone who starts going on about their first PC or programming language as though that is some sort of ancient history.

Please Mr IT teacher: Give me critical thinkers, not drones.
