Again, you're only mentioning American payment methods (well, bank transfers from outside the US are prohibitively expensive).

I guess this is why American companies behave the way they do: it doesn't even occur to you guys that other countries use different payment systems (generally, far safer than credit cards).

I'll give a single example here, but it's full of countries with their own systems:

Here in the Netherlands, all offline stores here accept EU debit (some don't take cash, and this is becoming more normal due to COVID. Most stores don't take credit).

Local credit cards, however, cannot be used online. They have no "card number". Online stores ubiquitously take Ideal. Ideal it tied to ones bank account, and money is moved from payer to recipient instantaneously. It's super safe, since you actually need to either scan a QR code with your phone, or use a tiny OTP device you get for free from the bank.

Aside from not qualifying for a credit card here, I'd never get one because I don't _want_ a credit. I only want to use money I have, period.
I imagine he paid himself a salary during that time, and 3.7/7 would be >$500k/y which is >mid level at a FANG+ company.
Assuming you can downgrade the firmware. The engineers probably thought of consumers trying to get rid of their malware, and design ways to make this difficult.

I know some products blow physical fuses when updating the firmware and if you go back to the old firmware it won't run when it detects the blown fuse.

You'd need significant electrical skills to restore/replace the fuse to the original state.
And good luck finding them on Google...
> This might have something to do with national bias.

I would rather say nationalistic bias.

Because the fine German press never put a bombastic headlines like "Migrants invented Covid vaccine", or "Scientists of Turkish origin to save millions of German lives".

Somehow these facts are conveniently ignored, but when a person with migration heritage do something bad, it's vocally mentioned in all media, including the mainstream.
You're making a veritable crap-ton of assumptions here. Happy to talk about specific concerns, but not if you're going in to this with guns blazing looking for a witch to burn.
Yeah, I was gonna say something like that. Nothing to sneeze at but I’ve made slightly more (not even considering my salary) by just working a software engineer job over the last 4 years. Nothing fancy, lots of afternoon naps. Not a staff engineer, not a VP, just a regular old mid-level engineer. A hump, you may say.

To each their own. But you won’t see a blog post about mine because it would be a very boring read.

I see posts here refusing to believe this could possibly be true. You must be a VP! Normal coders don’t make that kind of money! You don’t have to believe it- but you’re not hurting anyone besides yourself if you don’t.
The relationship between Zoom and China should outright disqualify it from being used in any Democratic countries.
The band Twenty One Pilots references Bourbaki as an integral part of their most recent album, "Trench". They created some pretty intricate puzzles for their fans leading up to the release of the album and it was fun to watch all these (mostly) young people work it out and learn more about math history at the same time.
Regardless, it wouldn't be a full refund, which is my point.
If the managers aren't aware, then there should be no problem with being direct about it. It's hard to build relationships indirectly.
Right. I've been paying myself $100-150k a year for most of that.
>A justice system, with reasonable information to infer a crime, seeking a warrant, using rules and regulations that have integrity, oversight, sanctioned by a Judge, following specific rules of access with certain, proportional criteria - is nothing like 'China'.

LMFAO imagine saying that with a straight face in 2020 when US nabs people off the street in unmarked vans, and the judicial branch is staffed by political partisans actively working withe the republican party to steal the election.

Yes, obviously they do. I was trying to emphasize that just because exams are unproctored at Stevens, doesn't mean that there are no systems in place for detecting and disciplining cheaters.

The honor system is also about expectations. Other universities expect you to cheat, and put extensive administrative controls in place to prevent that. The Stevens Honor System expects you to be honest, and to hold yourself and your peers accountable. So investigations and hearings for honor code violations are conducted by students, not staff. The administration doesn't get involved until it comes time for penalty enforcement.

So yeah, the end result is the same as any university: you can not expect it to bode well for your academic career if you cheat or plagiarize. But the structure is different, as is who ultimately bears responsibility for inquiring and investigating claims of academic dishonesty.
> That's actually the case, because you can totally simulate Git using Pijul if you want, except for the weird merges where Git shuffles up lines randomly.

I don't think this is true. The snapshot model is fundamentally different and doesn't require resolving conflicts in the same way.

> It is not a drawback at all, there are no downsides to it

It's a much more complicated model to implement, performance isn't as good, and your model is closely tied to your diffing algorithm. Contrast this to git where you can merge however you want and no one else needs to know the details.

> You can totally do that in Pijul by adding extra dependencies, and moreover, this is like saying `git rebase` adds very little value to Git.

Can do that and will happen in practice are very different things. It's not something likely possible to do automatically and doing it manually is just extra work that is probably for nothing.

> It is actually the exact opposite: Git forces you to reconsider those conflicts (there's even `git rerere`), whereas Pijul only shows you the unresolved conflicts. Once a conflict is solved in Pijul, it's solved by a patch, and solved forever.

I'm comparing git merge to adding a patch to a set in Pijul.

Let's say I have a patch A that adds a line:
return 1 + 1 + 1 + 1;

and a patch B based upon A changes it to:
return 1 + 1 + 2;

and a patch C based upon B changes that to:
return 1 + 3;

and a patch D based upon the original A changes it to:
return 4;

So we now have:

A
|\
B D
|
C

Now lets say we add them all to the same set of patches. Will I have to resolve the conflict in B and D and then also the conflict in (the resolution of B and D) and C?

> making it into a statement of belief

I want to get this straight. You’re saying that a glass that exists hypothetically, posited by the speaker, may only be known to be half full as a belief by that very speaker?

> or opinion

Or that it’s their opinion that it’s half full? Even if it wasn’t hypothetical, would you find it at 50% capacity or not?

> that reflects one’s inner workings and beliefs

I can’t tell if that means you read what I wrote or if you didn’t. Regardless, using a relative measure does not turn a factual statement into a belief or an opinion of the explicitly stated fact. That which may be inferred from the way of stating a fact may well be beliefs and opinions but that does not change the fact any more than it would by being stated in English rather than in French. Relative measures are no less factual - or valid, sound, precise or accurate - than absolute measures. Just try restating using absolute measures of pints and millilitres and tell me that makes the statements less factual or that beliefs and opinions cannot also be inferred from them.

Fairly standard national bias in reporting.

For a particularly ridiculous example, see athletes in Northern Ireland; the British press often refer to them as British when they win, and Irish when they don't!
It averages out to $420k/yr. There's this sentiment on HN that "all you have to do" is get a job at a big tech company and you'll make a million dollars a year. It's idiotic, and not true. Yes, there are people who make $500k+ writing code in a cubicle for 40 hours a week. They are the vast, vast, vast minority compared to the people a) making $100-200k doing the same thing; b) making that $500k+ doing everything but writing code.

Unless you're doing infrastructure stuff at Netflix, ad work at FB or Google, or some high level stuff at Microsoft you're not making half a million a year, and you're not doing it at a mid-level anything, anywhere.

Absolutely beautiful! It's not immediately obvious to me how to import an Excel spreadsheet, but something like Observable or AirTable is where spreadsheets need to migrate. Lazily evaluated dataflow like Observable is the right paradigm.
Is a traditional store also not a marketplace for product manufacturers and distributors to sell their wares? It operates the same way. Drop off a truckload of your stuff at mega-mart’s distribution hub and they take care of the rest via their marketplace for your canned beans or whatever you’re trying to sell. If your product is popular, mega-mart will probably make mega-mart beans and put them right next to yours on the shelf at a lower price. The fact that it happens on a website vs a physical store doesn’t change anything.
> There is no requirement to buy things on a loan. Many people do it because sometimes it is cheaper.

It is if so many companies only take credit cards. They just don't take money.

I do agree on you main point though: Americans are extremely uneducated financially. But I blame the system with is perfectly designed to work that way -- there's just no way to buy stuff online in the US with your actual money.

Mainz-Kastel is a district of Wiesbaden, right across from Mainz. As the name implies, it used to be a part of Mainz, but after WWII, the Rhine was a convenient border between the French and US occupied regions, so it was made a part of Wiesbaden. Culturally, Mainz-Kastel is very much Mainz though, sharing for example the tradition of "Fassenacht", Mainz Carnival.
So most people there feel like being Mainzer, and enjoy the beautiful view from across the river onto the Mainzer Schloss (Palace).
I'm curious how it works from a technical standpoint. If they invest, do they not own shares of the company, and then during the sale the shares are sold, did they just gift the shares back to you personally? Does that have tax implications?

It actually does not relate to Go at all. It's a game engine and allows you to write scripts in it's own scripting language (which kind of looks like python), C#, and a visual graph language.

This look exciting, but I am obsessed with the lack of subpixel rendering for fonts in godot (imgui, nanovg, etc). The fonts just look crummy to me.

As I understand it, subpixel rendering is a treacherous patent landscape. Is that the reason why it is consistently missing from these tools?
The first one where there were too many elderly votes. I hadn't heard that one, seems like a low effort issue that is easy to debunk.

The first problem in Pennsylvania was that they kept all republican observers a football field length away from anything. On November 5th the Penn Judge ruled that the republicans can get closer and actually observe vote counts. The stupid republican vote observers didn't bring their binoculars and therefore didn't observe anything. Worse yet, Penn Democrats violated this judge's order to give access to the observers. When they started recording showing the fraud they got thrown out.

The second problem is what the article confirms. As Trump said, 'Voting needs to stop.' but that's the problem with mail-in ballots being accepted up to 3 days after the election.

The third problem is Benford's law. The actual math shows a confirmed amount of fraud occurred.

The 4th problem in Penn is that there's video showing workers filling out ballots.

That's just Penn. Michigan threw out all republican observers because of mask violations and 'racism' and such. Immediately after they did that... 138,000 votes showed up, 100% for biden. https://twitter.com/ericjgibbs/status/1324088038830624768 How can anyone watch this video and not question the veracity of Michigan's vote.

Then there's Wisconsin where republican observers were put in a separate room with a video cam feed. As per the covid rules. That's basically useless and again benford's law was violated for over 65,000 votes. Somehow 100% for biden.

Trump won Ohio by quite a margin and realistically should have won Wisconsin and Michigan by about the same amount.

Let's just assume for a second there was absolutely no election fraud. The perception is everything. The political divide in the USA over the last 10 years has largely speaking been Democrats. Now it's going to be both.
Investment vehicle was a SAFE. They basically cancelled the SAFE as part of the deal. We've had carryover losses for years, so from a tax perspective, there was no hit on either side.

It makes little economic sense for it to be cheaper.

It takes economic privilege to be picky about what food one eats. It would be foolish for restaurants to forgo such signals.

I've fascinated with what Steam is doing for gaming on Linux. We'd been moving at a slow pace for years, and suddenly, we're jumping in strides.

I'm likewise fascinated about how terrible Steam's CLIENT works on Linux. Like, no hidpi support, (it's just blurry), notifications don't work, and lots of other stuff is broken. Sometimes closing a popup closes the main window, but only for _some_ kinds of popups. It also only works via X11 / XWayland.

Fortunately, they keep getting all the really hard stuff done.
And CVS is technically also the marketplace just in physical form. I get where they're coming from, but don't really agree with the standpoint.

CVS (or really any large retail chain that sells 3rd party products and produces their own) is in a similar situation. One could, and rightfully so I think, make the argument that CVS etc should not be allowed to produce their own products, because they have significantly more insight into what is sold. Amazon noticed that several products were selling quite well and decided to get a piece of the action. Beyond showing their own products as higher ranked you'll also often see them listed under the "cheaper alternative" section on product pages.

In comparison, CVS might see that neck pillows are really popular and decides to sell their own neck pillows and put competitor ones on lower shelves. It's quite similar behavior.

Part of the reason why the EU decides to go after Amazon and not other though, I think, is because of their market share. Amazon is huge in the EU. They hold about 29% of the market. Depending on the country, even more.

Amazon also does this on a scale that other "marketplace" type companies have not. If you ever go to the Amazon website and look under Amazon basic, you'll be surprise by the amount of stuff they sell.

As for $3.7 vs $2.9...that was basically the number that, to oversimplify, would roughly give the outcome I wanted for "retirement" when it comes to investment interest over the next 50 years.
