It's also basically as easy to stick with your current institution and put cash into ICSH (https://www.ishares.com/us/products/258806/ishares-liquidity...) or if youre worried about inflation TIP/SCHP (https://www.blackrock.com/us/individual/products/239467/isha... https://www.schwabfunds.com/products/schp)

It has the benefit of working anywhere, without switching banks, and the time to liquidate and get it back into your checking account will be 2 days, similar to moving money between institutions. The benefit being the entire transaction happens within the purview and responsibility of one customer service organization.

It's not quite cash and interest, but in effect its going to be basically the same thing.
This comment is depressingly American.
Presumably they aren't dumping beyond the legal limits. That's how our system works. The EPA or other agencies attempt to determine what's safe, the government makes some regulations, and if you follow those regulations, you don't go to prison. Even if the regulations are bad.
In my view the next nice thing to have is algebraic data types with compile-type exhaustiveness checks. I believe several languages implement null safety using a simple algebraic data type that can be “Nothing” or “Some(‘a)” where “a” is a type. The compiler can enforce that you can never access the “a” without checking for both cases: “Nothing” and “Some(‘a)”.

That extends naturally to any number of types. For example, a type representing a network request can be “Loading” or “Loaded(‘data)” or “Error(‘error)” and you can’t just blindly access the data without also handling loading states and error states.

I absolutely love this when doing frontend work in ReasonML, and I miss it in JavaScript. TypeScript definitely has this functionality but I’ve never felt that it was natural to use.
That's ridiculous; absolutely not. Businesses should be allowed to fire employees if they say something that the business doesn't agree with. We may as well as make it impossible for any business to fire people for any reason, then. -Should- a business easily fire people? I think not, but having a job isn't a right.

If you don't like how a company conducts itself, don't support it financially. Creating heavy-handed legislation isn't going to solve the human problem. Not that an amendment will ever get created again, most likely.
> Readout noise can be cancelled by taking so called bias frames.

That’s not what bias frames [1] are doing. Bias frames measure a systematic effect in the conversion of stored charge to a digital number in the CCD device. You can then subtract it out.

The calibration offered by bias frames does not fix readout noise, which is a random, not systematic, effect that is inherent in the same conversion.

You can use the bias frames to compute the strength of the readout noise (i.e., the rms magnitude of its random part) but you can’t remove the random noise itself.

As I said, the State we have is violent by its nature. I'm suggesting this is not what we want.

You not trespassing on somebody's home because you don't want your own to be treated that way is a great moral to hold, but not shared by everyone. A society can only function like this if people are on the same page - if they share a collective moral framework. Traditionally this was through religion, but these days "god is dead", and large scale immigration has led to societies with no common traditions or moral backgrounds.

In a nation where people have arms, then the most legitimate reason not to trespass in somebody's house is that you don't want to be shot by its owner. The decision to trespass in somebody's home is a choice between your life or whatever you may gain from trespassing. The choice is obvious.

Burglary is quite high in the UK where people don't have arms (or if they do for sport or hunting, they are not allowed to use them for self-defence). It is lower (per capita) in the US.

And self-defence, even if lethal force is used, is never "violence." (A common misunderstanding)

The way individuals should meet their obligations to society is through the non-aggression principle. One should not support any kind of violence, or threat of violence against others. What follows then, is peaceful, voluntary cooperation.

We are talking about a 16x difference in resources. Would you also suggest scaling a database that was more read heavy than write heavy instead of splitting reads and writes when you can deal with eventual consistency and just autoscale the read replicas?
Do you actually believe that graffiti and a couple small fires rise to the same level of criminality as an armed takeover of federal land? It's fully possible to believe the federal government should put a stop to armed takeovers of federal land and not be involved in graffiti on non-federal property without it being a partisan thing.

The problem is that people believe the protests in Portland are violent riots. They aren't. As long as people are manipulated so easily, I guess real policy discussions aren't going to happen.
I'm not sure it's the repetitiveness of the physical activity that is the issue, though could be.

I come from a TypeScript background, so I can compare it to that. The biggest difference to me was the soundness of the type system, where you're ensured (from a runtime perspective) that objects are correctly typed.

This cuts both way: it was great not having to think about typings all the time around input/output, but it was also cumbersome when implementing the internal implementation. I'm a bit biased because I've come to think in term of structural typing much more. Typing in Dart reminded me more of my time with C#.

Null safety was a huge missing piece though, glad to see it being added.

Not so true about EU, as EU has no common foreign policy or army. On the other hand if a NATO member gets attacked its part of the treaty that others come to help, the problem in this case is that the attacker is also a member and I don't think it's clear what happens in that case.

Why would you waste years there if you didn't like it? The only way you'll know is if you try it. I came to the US years ago from the EU in a similar way, and have been here ever since. The biggest downside is that if you do like it and want to get a green card, it can be very difficult, which is depressing.

If you can get a green card, you can work for whoever will have you, and there's no law that says you can't have more than 10 days paid leave. You can have whatever you can persuade an employer to give you.

As far as what it's like here goes, material things are generally more accessible than in most EU countries, if you have a good job. There's a lot more space over here than in the EU. In fact the US is basically empty. On the other hand, the food is terrible and there's no old stuff.

Honestly though, no one can tell you if you'll like it, even if you were to say where you'd live, which you haven't. There's a lot of very different kinds of places you could live over here!

> In the next five years, most of America’s most experienced teachers will retire. The Baby Boomers are leaving behind a nation of more novice educators. In 1988, a teacher most commonly had 15 years of experience. Less than three decades later, that number had fallen to just three years leading a classroom.

This might not be a bad thing. I remember the late 60's and early 70's being an incredibly innovative time in education: likely when many of the Baby Boomer teachers were stretching their wings.

Experimental schools, "free schools", open classrooms, self-paced learning etc. It was a time when you knew someone that attended a Montessori school, when we were moving to the Metric system...

In short it was a time of optimism and trying out new ideas. If the current crop of teachers can get out from under the yoke of "Common Core" or these other top-down initiatives we might see some innovation in education again.

And frankly school might become fun again as well.

I wonder how kickboxing fairs, done properly it is mentally taxing and one of the highest calorie burning exercises out there (up to 500 calories/30 minutes as measured by HR strap).

The mentally taxing part comes from the complex weight shifting and footwork that is constantly needed, complex combos require sophisticated manipulations of body weight positioning and constant shifting of stances and physical location around the bag.

It is the only cardio-like activity I can stand, except it is way above the cardio zone, HR when active is above 150 (or even 160) and stays there for an entire 3 minute round.

You're absolutely correct about the noise. Those 1U servers sound like a jet taking off pretty much the entire time they run. However, there's plenty of motherboards that are ATX (or E-ATX), so they fit in regular cases with little to no modifications. (Though, I just keep mine in my attic)

I agree the NUC is a great platform, but if you could spend less cash and get more bang for your buck, and perhaps have the added benefit of having a platform with ECC memory (not sure if the NUC supports ECC, I'm assuming it doesn't), then I think the latter is what most people would go for (or well, at least what I would go for :p).

We're also talking about home _servers_, so it doesn't seem that odd to me to use actual server hardware. The homelab[0] subreddit has a bunch of folks running actual server hardware for example.

> savings accounts are a terrible, terrible way to invest your money. If you have money in a savings account for the purpose of earning interest, you're doing it wrong.

Note that this wasn't always the case, though. Until not too long ago, keeping your money in a savings account, not making too many "risky" investments, and benefiting from compound interest in the long term while saving for retirement was considered basic financial literacy.

However, by now interest rates have been near zero and well below inflation for the entire adult lives of anyone under ~35, so the common wisdom has shifted to investing your money in the market being basic financial literacy.

That is not a forgone conclusion. It is only better not to intervene if the expected cost of intervention is higher than the expected cost of not intervening.

> One especially egregious example...

These are relatively minor regulations that you argue gone bad. What do you think would be the realized costs of these misapplications? Would they be in the same order of magnitude with for example the costs of not breaking up monopolies? I highly doubt it.

I get it, in countries like the US the government apparatus has a difficulty representing the welfare of the entirety of the nation, which tends to affect the interventions negatively, but that is not an argument against government intervention but an argument against the government itself, which is culpable of under-regulation just as much as over-regulation. (90's deregulatory Clinton laws on banks and telecommunications come to mind, which led to huge market consolidations and therefore market inefficiencies which we still suffer from.)

As we agree, markets sometimes need serious babysitting, so we ought to pick better babysitters.
