>If the currency was "debased" it would show up everywhere

Not necessarily.

Prices are dictated by supply/demand - and different goods have different amounts of supply/demand.

As so, it's theoretically possible to continually print money into existence, and use it all to buy Tesla stock, until there are no more shares of Tesla stock left for sale.

Under such a hypothetical scenario, INFLATION would only happen in Tesla's Stock price - as all this extra money spurred DEMAND for Tesla stock and wasn't accompanied by an increase in SUPPLY of Tesla stock. However, the price of shirts would remain the same - as none of this money changed the SUPPLY/DEMAND of shirts.

As so - inflation doesn't necessarily have to happen everywhere.

Note, this is mainly why CPI is a bad indicator of inflation - as it doesn't track the inflation that is happening around us - inflation in assets like stocks / real estate. This also explains why prices of real estate in certain cities are way pricier than others, and also why the stock market can be way overvalued when the economy is doing bad.
I feel really quite blessed by my Irish passport. No visas needed, I can live and work in any EU country, schengen country or the UK, which represents almost all of the desirable countries in the world. And we've never been at war with anyone, so nobody hates us, making the rest of the world about as accessible as it can be for a non citizen. It is a bit ridiculous that I get this privilege, just from what hospital I was born in.
Parable of the Sower is a nice quick novel, a great place to start, and feels very relevant these days. Lilith's Brood is a lot wilder, a very unique experience.
The ACLU's opinion is this violates the First Amendment.

Will the Courts, and especially the Supreme Court, agree?

My personal bet is that the Supreme Court will not agree with the ACLU on this. (Especially if Trump succeeds in appointing a conservative to replace Ruth Bader-Ginsburg.)
Who said anything about illegal? The Taiwanese government knows the importance of TSMC. If the rumors are true, the explosives would be there because the government wanted it.

What does identity politics have to do with human rights, and why does one preclude the other? Your statement makes it out to seem that you simply don't like what you consider "identity politics" and wanted to bring that into the discussion, regardless of how irrelevant it is.

The sheer amount that it is used for in China is quite fascinating. Too bad the CCP is almost certainly also using it as a means to track and keep their citizenry in line.
Hah, all the other TSMC customers would no doubt band together to stop, if not through regulatory means, putting up a counteroff for some jointly owned controlled. It's too vital.
Ask HN: Use 99 Designs for website illustration
I am working on an MVP. I have a clear idea of what I want for the hero illustration. The idea is 3D style building, inspired by the intro of the Silicon Valley TV show.

My first inclination is to use 99 Designs, but then my second thought is finding someone I like on Dribble and hiring them directly. My third thought is that I should use some generic free illustrations... but then I think to myself how boring and generic those are, and my idea is very specific.

I'd love to hear some advice. Has anybody tried hiring a designer directly from Dribble? How do you go about hiring a good designer to start an incremental business relationship? Have you used 99 Designs with good luck? and lastly, any recommendations for free alternatives?

Thank you!
That involves a few diagrams, but essentially, we have two layers:

- the libcu++ layer, which has some of our extensions and implementations specific to our platform.
- the libc++ layer, which is a modified upstream libc++.

A header in the libcu++ layer defines the libc++ internal macros in a certain way, and then includes the applicable libc++ header.

This is the current architecture, but we're moving away towards a more integrated approach where almost everything is in the libc++ layer.
How far do you wish to cancel them all? Where does one draw the line on this? You'd be very busy in your quest wouldn't you?

Thank you for posting this! I'm going to be starting a new job sometime soon, and this is giving me all sorts of ideas! Especially thank you for being so comprehensive in your comment. Some questions:

What size is your company, and what level of SWE are you? Did your referrals tend to move up the org chart, or stay at the same level? Is your role very broad? I ask this last one because a question like "How do you envision us working/partnering with one another?" seems like something I would ask an immediate coworker, not necessarily someone two connections away. Are you a tech lead, or someone with reports (or some other position of authority?).

Finally, one of your questions contains what appears to be your company name, I don't know if it was intentional to leave that there, just letting you know.
It isn't exactly unprecedented. Switzerland kept all its bridges and tunnels actively primed with explosives at all times since at least WW2 to the early 2000s.
Don't wait until you past 40 years old to take care of your health. Starts now.

Physical exercise becomes more important to fight against aging. Especially core exercises to take care of your back.

Watch your diet and eat well because it's so much harder to lose weight when you are older. Not to mention your innards are deteriorating fast if you abuse them.

Contact sports or extreme sports has super high cost when you are older. Imagine breaking your wrist playing snowboard and you have to be out of work for multiple months, unable to make a living by typing, etc.

It’s a Russia-backed puppet state, the same as Abkhazia (same period of time), South Ossetia (2008), or a newer DNR/LNR (2014). It’s not people that decided to do something, it’s that big pile of shit country making life worse for them.
You should try out WebTestRunner: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@web/test-runner

It's a very, _very_ fast test runner that supports Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, BrowserStack and Sauce launchers.

We're using it for the new versions of lit-html and LitElement and the speed of re-running only effected tests on all three engines is amazing - it's nearly instant.

Abstracting away the browser launcher from just Playwright or Puppeteer means that your test infra still runs against IE11 or specific versions of, say, Safari if you need to.
The overhead of explicit mental models means their terrible for any complex decision making process. Try an apply them to an extremely well studied problem like say chess and you still get stomped by people with even basic skills. Less obviously all real world problems you need to actually consider end up being complex with a huge number of subtle interactions.

What’s actually useful 99.9% of the time is either external models that can run on computers, or implicit models developed by synthesis of knowledge and practice.

PS: Mental models can be useful in extremely stressful situations where there is no need to act quickly or come up with complex solutions. There is a hurricane forecasted to hit this area in 5 days doesn’t need a great solution just a set of reasonable choices.

> just commenting on the general infeasibility claim

I agree: the main problem of "AI" is the knowledge base used. And the biais associated. Which mean that you can correct any biais by changing the reference... but introducing other biaises.

It would be possible to use such a tool either to focus on smaller tasks (let's say: focusing only on photo gallery of professional photographer websites) and be more specific (but less creative) or to grow the knowledge base to include paintings, architecture, object design to exact more general design principles (gestalt and so...)

In the end, the "AI" will be to create new "mixes" of different already used concepts... but I don't see how it would be able to create new concepts. The "AI" will - as much as I understand the technology - stay inside the space defined by it's knowledge base. If all the website of the knowledge base have only white or black background, the "AI" can't "think" to use a green background, because it doesn't have any inference mecanism to think of the background color as any color. It is limited to the background that was fed.
Why would they put texture units on it if it wasn't intended to be sold as a GPU? Consumer gaming GPUs were explicitly planned. Initial released versions even had DirectX drivers.

> Also, I find myself having to take notes to come back to later.

I rely on notes too. I'm not sure it's entirely due to my memory getting worse with age. It's also that as you progress to more senior or leadership roles over the course of your career, the rate at which you become interrupted by questions or meetings increases, and the number of different issues you need to juggle also increases. I use my notes as a non-volatile memory to save my current mental state so I can resume after these interrupts.

If I'm coding uninterrupted and in a state of "flow", I can still remember details of my code from years ago.

mpv plays youtube links and many other websites (although not netflix or spotify to my knowledge) using the excellent youtube-dl. For my purposes it is more than sufficient, but as I said it won't be for everybody.

As to why I don't want google devices on my LAN, I'm sure you could already guess that the answer is the usual privacy/political concerns, which I'll not bore you with since you obviously don't care. There are however some practical benefits to my arrangement, particularly being able to play media served up by NFS (DLNA never gave me anything but grief and unreliability.) Furthermore youtube-dl supports a very long tail of sites that Chromecast doesn't (at least not without the jank of screen mirroring, which AFAIK only works for as long as the laptop being mirrored is turned on.)

Who cares. Why would anyone use GoDaddy after the December 2011 boycott?
I've snapped/bent a few microSD cards myself trying to remove them from "exotic" cases, both times in hasty situations (interactive art shows). I've learned to slowly remove them while not exerting any vertical pressure when it's still halfway inside the Pi - just keep trying to slide the card out while using fingernails to catch the bump on the end.
In that light, it's frustrating to hear concerns about the identity of those who live there. Even in literature, where it's arguably more possible to take a hopeful position than the present circumstances, puppets must undertake a long and difficult journey in order to secure a "real" identity...
Because TSMC might not be top of the game in a couple of years.
It's just a fud article that's simping to glorify Apple as an almighty company. AMD already has 5nm capacity booked with TSMC but for this year. The reality is AMD isn't ready to go 5nm just yet. They have yet to even launch the 7nm Zen 3 Ryzens and have at least a year until they would want to even start phasing in initial 5nm products.
You’re arguing because modern Left positions haven’t successfully passed into law, that the parties are fundamentally the same?

A good half the county would strongly disagree with what you feel - and that they’ve blocked those from passing isn’t proof that the system is failing, it’s proof it’s working. Obama got his healthcare plan. Every president usually gets maybe one or two bigger things they want, not all. It’s a sign that it’s working. Remember, you’re in a democracy, and about half of the people don’t agree with DACA, increased immigration, single payer...
It's not that simple in any of those cases (and add Crimea to your list.) Russia wouldn't be able to do what it does if there weren't severe grievances in play already.
AFAIK the lineage can be traced all the back to Sandy Bridge in 2011. Fundamentally, it seems Willow Cove is an iteration of Skylake which in turn is an iteration of Sandy Bridge. Some buses and internal caches were widened but the general structure is fairly similar to Sandy Bridge.

Some quick review suggests the big change for Willow Cove was a cache redesign [1]. The previous generation, Sunny Cove, added widened reorder buffers, a larger L1 data cache, added components to some integer units (including an integer division unit), doubled the load/store buffers, and widened the vector units to handle 512 bit instructions without splitting them (like Ryzen currently does). But, the architecture and core structure is still the same as Skylake. Same number of integer, vector, and floating point units, fairly similar front end, etc.

You've drunk too much of the far left koolaide. The USA has done so much more than that. Name a country that has been around relatively intact for the past few hundred years that was also a major power than didn't engage in similar or much worse. I get tired of historic revisionism and seeing the past through and judging by the standards of today things that happened in the past. It's fine to see what was wrong with it, but it's academic dishonesty to say pass judgement for today's generation and future generations and say the USA is the ultimate evil like you are saying.

This article has a real nauseating “I went to document the primitive natives” feel to it. Lines like:

> But when he was out on the street with his camera, something struck him about the way people reacted.

Make it sound like they’ve never seen a camera before. And surely there is more to the story than pictures of tanks and people in military uniforms?

The phenomenon that would have made it an estuary on the hominid and homo sapiens timescale is lower sea levels due to ice ages.

40% of the Red Sea is only 100 m deep, and during the last major ice age 20kya sea levels were 120 m lower than they are today.

> I wonder how mathematicians, physicists and engineers come up with names...

It might be outsiders view, but I feel like in their formalisms mathematicians fall back to single character "names" for lots of things, or maybe single character + subscript. That conveniently side-steps the issue of naming things, and I think it was what Dijkstra was referring to in his essay.
I'm not digressing from your point, I'm directly rebutting it. You claimed that your governor is abusing his power, offering as a supporting argument a ruling that his orders are unconstitutional by an ostensibly neutral third party. I'm attacking your supporting argument by calling the neutrality of that third party into question.

My own opinion is that the orders are constitutional.

"Now, replace the 'White candidates only' with 'Australian residents only,' and you have a real example of thousands of modern job ads shared around the web every day."

That's an outrageous and insidious comparison to make. Nationality and ethnicity are two different things. Presumably, there are more than just white people in Australia. Job ads with country based limitations are primarily legal considerations. Hiring non-residents in _any_ country generally requires procedures that cost money or time, either in the process itself or hiring a third-party to delegate the process. Nation-based hiring is not racial prejudice.

Now, an analysis of the reasoning why countries(read: not companies) create their immigration policies would be worth an article. But, that's an orthogonal issue.

I understand that this blog article is simply an ad/SEO marketing article. But your point could be made without such statements. It's such an incredulous thing to imply.
> France is a "civil law" country. Courts there cannot "make new laws", they can only invalidate them. (And as far as I know this applies in general to all civil law countries.)

The German Supreme Court has, on two occasions, declared new constitutional rights: the right to informational self-determination (when deliberating a census process law) and the right to integrity of data processing systems (when outlaying voting computers). I don't know if that counts though since technically they argued that other constitutional rights implied these rights (but weren't mentioned explicitly because the German Basic Law was drafted in 1949).
Not gonna cry any tears for Apple that's for sure. They'll do just fine without the Chinese market.
Being generally mindful of what you eat and how much you weigh should be second nature to you, not something you start doing frantically when you are 50 pounds overweight.

Weigh yourself at least once a week in a consistent fashion (say, in the morning after peeing and pooping). If you notice your weight drifting up (> 1 lb over long-term baseline) for two weeks, do a quick audit of your diet, cut on excess sugar, carbs etc. until it's back to the baseline.

It's relatively trivial to lose 1-2lbs over a few weeks. But doing it once you are 50 lbs overweight will be one of the hardest things you will do, coz you will feel like shit on most days.

Also, if you have not generally been athletic in your youth, beware of doing extreme bulk-cut cycles to gain muscle in your 30s and later. It's easy to gain fat, hard to gain muscle, and you are much more likely to end up just fat while convincing yourself you are 'bulking'.
There are plenty alternatives to tiktok.
I really like the scene in the movie where Socrates throws him off the bridge and Dan flips out and Socrates simply responds something along the lines "but while you were flying through the air your mind was completely focused on one thing. You even had a name for it: arghhhh!"

Man that book was epic when I discovered it all those years ago. Especially since I had a habit of visiting gas stations at odd hours of the night too.
> that end up being racist

Conditional on the relatively novel definition of racism, this is correct.

I would love to see this novel definition of racism used more consistently and thoroughgoingly — to encompass all the manifold races, not just the 19th-century "continental races" taxonomy.
It's interesting the ways we qualify 'fairness' when talking about capitalism.

In practice, I suspect these sorts of situation arise far more frequently than we think. One party overpays for a supply of an ingredient and then controls demand by leveraging it. In the first act, they convince people that they need things made with this ingredient. In the second, they bank on the cachet, the exclusivity, driving demand even higher.

But at the end of the day, someone is playing a chess match where in theory the customer could have had more options and now they don't. Or they could have had no options at all. We don't have a time machine so who can say?

Apple went farther in a number of situations by investing in suppliers in order to guarantee that they could produce an ingredient in the first place, either at all, or in a timely fashion. We are going to enable you to make a product, and then we are going to ask for special treatment for having done so.

Which means, for instance, that Intel may be able to field an equivalent ultralight notebook using the same supplier, but Apple made higher profit margins on the same product (although the manufacturer makes higher profits on the Intel version).

I don't have any illusions that they will continue with this level of benevolence in the future, especially after Tim (or indeed even as Tim's memory of Steve fades). I don't even know if they are still working that way now. Probably not, or not for long.

At any rate, R&D frequently is paid for by luxury goods of one form or another.
Like it or not, Apple is nearly the only luxury computing maker out there, though Samsung, Sony and LG dabble. I've expressed my confusion on a number of occasions as to why things are this way, given that it's not the case with cars or a number of other goods. I like Apple products and am an investor, but I'd also like to have more opportunities to compare them to a competitor. Hyundai has figured out they need a separate luxury brand, as have a number of car makers before them. Maybe Sony, Samsung and LG need their own 'Genesis', 'Audi', "Acura".

My last example was not a case of 'poor Intel, can't sell because of a licensing agreement'. They were probably wiping their tears away with 100 dollar bills. TSMC is probably pretty happy with this arrangement too. The way they 'get out' of this exclusivity is to produce more chips than Apple cares to buy, since it's probably Right of First Refusal, not 'you can make no more than N million chips per month or else'.
