> A couple of guesses here

Let me guess, it's going to be the mindless propaganda that you've been brainwashed with via tradional and social media. Let's find out.

> The Chinese government doesn't want such a huge financial entity owned by foreign owners (even though they have claimed they are allowing more foreign entries in financial sectors). Also, China is suffering from dollar shortage/flight (foreign manufacturing moving out, foreign retailers moving in), and this IPO could exacerbate it

If china is facing "dollar shortage", then why would they ban foreign money? Wouldn't they want more dollars? Also, don't people like you claim that china owns us because they own so much of our debt? If so, how can they be experiencing dollar shortage if they own over $1 trillion of US bonds? Also they are not allowing more "foreign entries" in financial sector but they are allowing more foreign entries in retail? Finally, if you think an IPO is going to affect "dollar shortage" issue, then you haven't a clue what you are talking about. What about all the other major tech IPOs, like BABA, which had significant foreign investment. Not to mention all the foreign venture capitalists in china? Why isn't china kicking them out? Has china banned foreign investment/capital?

> This is a big no no right now, especially since Xi's dictatorship is wobbly.

I thought he was an "emperor" for life. Now his "dictatorship" is wobbly? Be consistent. What's next? You are going to call him a mafia boss?

> check out recently delisted Chinese companies in US stock exchanges.

Is it misreporting or is it the trade war?

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trade-china-limits-id...

If what you are saying is correct, why isn't the other company affiliated with Jack Ma ( BABA ) delisted?

> (if you ask me, why would anyone invest in any mafia pyramid scheme with no guarantee you'll get your money out...)

But you were just complaining that "even though they have claimed they are allowing more foreign entries in financial sectors".

On the one hand, you are whining that the chinese aren't allowing more financial entries into their market. And then you claim that it's a mafia pyramid scheme that nobody should invest in. Shouldn't you be praising china for keeping "foreign entries" out of their "mafia pyramid scheme"? Once again, be consistent.

What I mean by finding it difficult to teach this is that a lot of times it doesn't sink in, or takes a very long time to. Telling people what search terms you used and how you decided what results to click on, and how you distilled what you found in those results into an answer, still does not provide an easy follow path to coming up with search terms for new problems in the future, having good taste in the results to follow, or distilling results into an answer. There is no step by step guide to coming up with search terms, it seems to largely be a function of experience alone.
>Allowing the market to select prices that keep masks in stock is the opposite!

In this situation it also makes sure that the rich can be a lot better protected from a virus than the poor, that is not ethical in my mind. Yes, the market will produce more, but that takes time, time during which people die.

>>> They pay less on a monthly mortgage payment than their parents did

The reference you gave for "They pay less on a monthly mortgage payment" is itself adjusted for inflation as noted on the chart. So using the questionable inflation figure itself to refute inflation isn't persuasive.

Intuitively also, I'm not sure I buy the argument that the median young person lives in Kansas City. I grew up with dozens of family members who actually did live in middle america (most of them as engineers at car plants.) Many of those jobs are not as cushy as they once were. Some are gone. From my own experience as an engineer, the weighted centroids of the job market are in SF or NY or DC, not in Ohio.

Of course, that is an engineering viewpoint, what about overall across professions? I dont quite understand this and i'd love to be educated. From everything I read, the traditional jobs in middle america have left and these towns struggle. My own experience is only anecdotal (e.g., upstate NY, western pennsylvania)
Consistency: Valley of Disappointment, Critical Threshold and Benefits
Assuming it’s similar to Nexus, you can combine multiple registries into a group and you configure the Docker daemon to use your local registry as the (only) mirror.

So if you have ithkuil/project on Docker Hub and donmcronald/project on GCR, you could reference them both with those short names and Artifactory or Nexus would deal with fetching them from the correct remotes.

The main downside is that you introduce the potential for namespace collisions. A second downside is that you become dependent on having that local registry aggregating images from multiple registries. Personally I don’t like it.
A quote that seems related to that thought:

If you tippled the population of Iceland you would now have 1% of Japan. Scales are not comparable.

Iceland never had an Onsen culture. Japan's easy geo spots are already all famous Onsen towns and tapped. Sure it happens, but geothermal cannot pull much weight.

As for wind: Japan is unique in being horrible for on shore wind with absurdly steep cliff of a shore line. The coast of Japan gets deep quick. While Europe gets to build their wind farms on bedrock Japan is only now experimenting with floating wind farms. Atleast that's what I've learned from talking with people involved with wind in Japan.

Thus Japan's renewable energy generation is going to be solar. As it happens I only a 300 panel solar power plant as an investment. For myself I want to see hydrogen become viable because it can serve to put a floor on electricity prices. Without a base demand nothing prevents my peak solar production getting sold for free. With a hydrogen economy, all else equa,l atleast I might get 1/4 of peek prices.

Let me phrase all this a different way: Japan hates oil. Oil is Japan's largest import. After 2011 Japan's trade balance went massively minus just because of extra energy imports. If Japan had an easy out, they would have taken it.

Which leads me to my original "resource poor" comment. Japan is the classic example of the inverse dutch-disease. Japan has nothing, so they only survive by building high value add industries. Anything less and the island starves.
You're still just focused on technical implementation and not the intent behind actions, which is also important and will likely be considered by the courts.

One of the standard examples of common sense is “everything that goes up must come down”.

When it comes to space missions, common sense starts bad and rapidly gets worse — there is no down, there is no “now”, metals can contact-weld without any supply of energy, exposed fluids boil until they freeze, radiation pressure is relevant, ionising radiation doses can be enough to break things, impact damage is radically different, launch times are prescribed by orbital dynamics, engines are more efficient when they are moving faster, fuel use is exponential with regard to change in velocity and nothing to do with distance, and the launch mass is heavily constrained. And that’s just the stuff I know from following Scott Manley and similar on YouTube — I’m a very long way from being a rocket engineer.
An article written by an expert in biology and disease and the director of the National Institutes of Health, which summarizes an a article that was published in a peer-reviewed medical journal and written by another accomplished medical doctor, isn't scientific enough for you.

Why? Because Sweden didn't mandate masks. First, Sweden had more deaths per capital than most countries. Second, even if it had very good numbers, that would not mean that masks aren't effective.

I'm confused. The goal of my proposal was that someone who was wrongly flagged (a false positive) could identify themselves as such by being willing to put up a (cash) bounty, or identify themselves with a financial/government institution that is set to handle such things at scale. Someone who is committing fraud, or trying to steal anonymously, or is involved in other criminal activities, is extremely unlikely to do such things. Legitimate people, however would have a route out of this kafkaesque maze. That system could even be automated, and it would work better than what's going on now. At a certain point, some problems just cannot be solved with just code.

Not only self employed and small businesses! If you work as an employee and have a 401(k), you are participating in a form of tax avoidance: deferral. Your money goes into it, but it's not taxed until much later when you retire and take it out. If you have an HSA, a Roth IRA or a 529 plan for your kid's education, you're also deferring and/or avoiding taxes. If you buy municipal bonds you're avoiding some taxes. There are a few "it would be foolish not to" ways for middle class people to keep their finances tax efficient. Obviously there are many more ways available to rich people and businesses, and they can shelter orders of magnitude more money than us, but let's not pretend that tax avoidance is something only they do.

Neither Haskell's nor OCaml's functors are the same as the mathematical one I believe, but both are similar in some way that the word makes sense to be used for their respective feature.

In OCaml, functors map between an abstract module and some concrete one. And in Haskell functors are structures that can have a function that maps over their elements. In math a functor is a map between categories. So you can see how all three kinda make sense as functors, but also are different in exactly what they are.

Why would manufacturers invest in more production capacity if there is no upside? Imagine being a manufacturer and the government told you that you cannot sell your product for more than the set amount. You would just do business as usual which right now means no masks today nor in a future pandemic.
There's a segment of the population that sees scientists as materialist, secular replacements for priests and mystics, instead of sophisticated monkeys trying their best to make sense of a messy, confusing world.

As a side note, I'd push back against the idea that replicability is the key ingredient of science: it's neither necessary nor sufficient to discover scientifically "true" knowledge, though it's definitely a nice to have. Plenty of important measurements have been made confirming theories we see as true today (or true enough) that turn out to have been irreproducible, plagued by experimenter bias, or even outright fraudulent. But it's a particular research programme, embedded in a social context, that generates knowledge, not a single reproducible experiment.

I remember communicating with Ellen (the co-founder that has left the company) back in April (2 months before they let everyone go) when they asked for feedback. I said pretty much the gist of this blog post and received a one line answer of 'well, that's like, your opinion, maaan'.

I should feel vindicated, instead I feel sad. Dark got 3.5 million in funding - I'd be very curious to know where that money went (specifically how much the founder and co-founder have paid themselves) because it sure sounds like the founders got to 'try ocaml lol' with 3.5 million of someone else's money and then write blog posts about it that routinely show up on HackerNews, telling the rest of us of their 'lessons learned'.
The thing that killed any interest I ever had in Dark was the license[1]. It’s beyond vendor lock-in, it’s suicide at an undetermined date.

I never implied that one shouldn't take the necessary precautions that you mentioned (respirators, filters) _during_ that month and stay indoors. I am merely stating that "Now we have COVID which means you want to be outside, but fire smoke that you shouldn't breath, so you want to be inside." is a false dichotomy 11 months of the year in the Bay Area, which is not the case for a lot of other places.

Coming from a country where the air quality is bad 365 days a year, I appreciate what is possible here, and cannot empathize with this tendency to exaggerate the situation.

The article describes the top speed of the helicopter keeping pace with the car as being well below the stated record, ergo the pilot knows the car wasn't going that fast. It also states that analysis of the engine and gearbox ratios indicate the car is literally incapable of going that fast, therefore the engineers who built it know that as well.

There is no real evidence of a significant herd immunity effect in Sweden yet. Swedish government policy has consistently focused on sustainable pandemic control measures based on the assumption that the virus will be with us for a long time to come. Their low death rate over the past 3 months is probably mostly a result of effective measures to protect the elderly. And the harvesting effect: many of the frailest people already died during the first wave.

This. A lot of people get thrown into the top layer of the abstraction itself and then move down from there.

What instead should happens first is that these people should be shown the problems React or other frameworks for that matter are trying to solve. It is way more motivating to gradually move up the abstraction layer when learning.

Get the know the problem first and then find the solution to that problem. Not the other way around.
No, it's not necessary to perform a CPS transformation. After all, the OS manages to pre-emptively schedule any non-cooperating processes, right?

So, leaving aside the problem of interacting with the OS for I/O, you can do interleaved CPU-bound in a single thread, by instrumenting your code with basically an instruction counter. When it grows a bit too large, stop, reset it, and switch to another task. Erlang does this, although being a functional language, it counts only function calls (no other way to make a loop than to (tail-)call itself). No CPS needed.
