Despite what people who have only lived in booming metros may think, housing can not only decline in value, it can go negative, which is to say that it can decline to the point that maintenance costs exceed the improved value.

These houses were abandoned because they are literally worthless. Worse, they're liabilities.
In Canada you can’t (or you couldn’t - not sure if it’s changed in the last decade) call yourself an engineer unless you’re a Professional Engineer.
Just tested it and it worked fine. Note that your function takes too many parameters in its definition and that functions can't be passed as parameters by name.

It is definitely not as elegant as the built-in facility in J, but definitely doable and usable in Matlab. In fact, I think any language with flexible enough function overloading should be able to implement such a feature.
Keto Body Trim Does It Work?
Basic Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition – research shows caffeine may advance quicker weight reduction and a decrease in BMI.The issue with keto supplements right presently is that there are so many, a portion of the names cover. When hoping to purchase the Keto Trim item, we couldn't discover any posting. The sites we found that the connections to buy the item currently lead to Purefit Keto. The jugs seem to be indistinguishable, beside the PureFit name.Keto Trim is produced by Nature-Driven, a dietary enhancement organization based out of Brilliant, Ohio. Our examination group was upset by the reality there is next to no data accessible about the enhancement's creators.

It is also enlightening to consider the success of various strategies too. This will take years to piece together but one comparison from my corner of the globe is the contact tracing in New South Wales and Victoria. In NSW contact tracing successfully prevented a large second wave while in Victoria it did not, and they were forced into a strict lockdown which eventually worked. Remarkably, both states become free of COVID around the same time. There isn't much difference in socioeconomic status or population density between NSW and Victoria so the difference likely lies with the effectiveness of the contact tracing or just good/bad luck.

You could never have a hard enough lockdown to eliminate the virus. As soon as you started to open back up, it would pop up somewhere and start spreading again. The idea that we could have locked down hard for two weeks in March or April and killed it off is fantasy.
No idea how valid these are, as I'm not entirely sure what I am doing. The single threaded one seemed to spread the load over a couple of cores, but they remained mostly idle. The other tests ramped up to consume a core per thread

CoreMark 1.0 : 30866.579211 / GCCApple LLVM 12.0.0 (clang-1200.0.32.27) -O2 -DMULTITHREAD=1 -DUSE_PTHREAD -DPERFORMANCE_RUN=1 / Heap

CoreMark 1.0 : 111219.240929 / GCCApple LLVM 12.0.0 (clang-1200.0.32.27) -O2 -DMULTITHREAD=4 -DUSE_PTHREAD -DPERFORMANCE_RUN=1 / Heap / 4:PThreads

CoreMark 1.0 : 162568.583621 / GCCApple LLVM 12.0.0 (clang-1200.0.32.27) -O2 -DMULTITHREAD=8 -DUSE_PTHREAD -DPERFORMANCE_RUN=1 / Heap / 8:PThreads

So it seems too be about 30k for each of the performance cores (max 3W/core = ~10k/W), and 10k for each of the efficiency cores (max 0.3W/core = ~33k/W)?

Of course, the CPU frequency doesn't immediately ramp up, so I guess this isn't a fair assessment anyway, and I can't tell what the frequency/power consumption of each core - just going off published stats.

Either way, the figures in this article are far from reliable.
I don't understand this trivializing of her work. Her project is innovative in teaching programming and is a product of research and she coined its name. Same goes for TDD, it's an innovation in the approach to coding, and someone gave that a name. We had tests before and we valued tests but that's not the point.

I have my own reservations about her method, but that does not mean her work is trivial.
Say “developer” to non-IT people and they immediately think “property developer”, so I stick to “computer programmer”.

Anyone can start their own subreddit and attract users. And you get high quality UI for free. Or I could spend weeks setting up my own forum software. Why would I do that?

Facebook et al won because they made things easy. I don’t like FB’s approach to privacy or dark patterns, but those aren’t why they won. Running your own website is a demanding hobby for tech nerds. Running your own FB group, anyone can do. This is because FB makes money from making it easy. “The web” doesn’t make money from making it easy, so it isn’t.

In addition, the open web is open to spammers. That’s why Google’s search results are degrading. Walled gardens cut down on these negative externalities.

Worked McDonald's as my first job at 15. I can tell you that McDonald's and Wendy's both have/had excellent fries but there were bad incentives for cooking them properly and having them fresh.

The fries need to be cooked for a specific time(well duh, but the sweet spot is less than a dozen seconds). They also cook better in small batches. The times are off for full baskets and perhaps they don't cook well like that at all; you want the fries to be "swimming" on the basket.

Problem is the same as every fast food restro; the employees get antsy and don't want to wait for them to cook all the way. Managers and employees alike think(or don't think TBH) the customer would rather have their meal 20s sooner with undercooked fries. Same reason sandwich shops pull the sandwich before it has been properly toasted.

When I was younger and frequented these places I used to ask them for "..fresh fries, cooked the full time. I don't mind waiting". Go inside, the drive-through has bad quality incentives(wait time).

Yep. I noticed that concurrently with regularly taking magnesium (for other reasons) my semi-regular (5/year?) effectively vanished. Not sure it’s causal but I don’t care — they’re gone.
To be fair, I do understand that universally fatal, untreatable, undiagnosable, undetectable diseases with unknown incubation periods are scary, and I understand that blood donation is an amplification factor for blood borne diseases, hence the caution.
The license changes basically allow nobody other than MacStadium to exist–throughout the blog post he gloats about how their business model is a hand in the new EULA's glove. And, of course, MacStadium been in contact with Apple to work this out, as he mention at the end. What has clearly happened is Apple asked them what the EULA should look like, or suggested a EULA based on what MacStadium is doing, and they went along with it. There is no way they didn't know that this would hurt everyone else's business (actually, he mentions this in the article, so he is writing this with full knowledge of that fact).

Even if MacStadium was not involved in this at all, making a blog post about a change that hurts your competitors and talking about how you are somehow better than them and deserve to exist is remarkably poor taste.

I never thought of the blocking of links as spam prevention but it makes complete sense.

Now that they’ve progressed a lot they have swipe up links for various accounts that integrate with ads and other publishers so they are loosening the grip.

At first i hated not having links and being able to click but now i rather appreciate it because anecdotally it definitely reduced spam.

The approach you're explaining makes logical sense, but that's a really boring way to learn programming. It could work for CS-students, which are pre-selected in a way, but I still wouldn't teach students that methodically. There's just no fun there.

For example, I'm an adult-ADHD developer in my 30's and really good at my work. I started programming, by just doing fun things and it's only been after few years as a developer, that I've become interested learning more about CS-theory. It's hard to be interested in such topics unless you have insight on why such things matter.
Blogs are a thing of the past. Forums dead. News-groups pale compared to what they used to be a decade ago.

When Googling for my hobbies, all I get are commercial web sites, no mor enews groups, fora, blogs, ... What a desaster.
Ask HN: Windfall at IPO. Sell?
I’m expecting a windfall from an upcoming tech IPO. I run a tech startup and have been angel investing in other startups since many years.
I’m a business angel in the mentioned IPO and have no lock-up period. I had liquidity events in the past but not at this size. I dont’t plan to sell at IPO nor need the cash. I believe that the company will 10-20x over the next 10-20 years and would love to hold the shares.

That said, I think this is not optimal for my portfolio. Possibly even idiotic. I’m wondering what the optimal play in terms portfolio construction is.

Reading and analysing the data [0] on IPOs over that last decades suggests that I should sell all shares on a schedule, like over 18 months [1], and reinvest in new startup deals.

Who has been in a similar situation and can point me in the right direction?

I do not want to retire. I want to keep investing in startups.

I believe it very much reflects that DevRel is a multi-functional discipline.
As far as I am aware, the new changes are clarification to the old terms, which didn't really say much at all. The situation where you have a clear "no" is significantly worse than the one where there's no specific rule prohibiting it. Many companies can and have decided that the latter was good enough to offer a service off of; no company with a competent legal department is going to offer such a service now.
Yeah the politics would definitely be better because it's deuterium/tritium for fusion as opposed to uranium, which has a lot a cultural and historical baggage and it's on the news in a bad way all the time. So yes it would be better.

Now would it be better enough to get out of the same political/cultural hole that fission is in?

I don't know, but it at least has a better chance.

The "btrfs" tool has a lot of leaky abstractions, confusing intended usage, and gotchas all over the place. If you aren't a btrfs developer, it is difficult to know what exactly you want to do and how to accomplish it.

ZFS on the other hand has just two commands for common administration tasks: zpool and zfs. zpool controls pool-level operations, mainly ones that deal with the storage layer; zfs controls the logical file systems and volumes that are contained within a pool. The zpool and zfs commands have been meticulously crafted to not expose much of the underlying software architecture and focus only on what administrators want, and all of it is clearly documented.

There are actually a few other commands that come with ZFS if you really want or need to deal with low-level and difficult details, commands like zdb, zinject, zstreamdump. You almost never need any of them.

Machine/ Deep Learning on M1
Hi,
im thinking about buying a M1 macbook air because my old linux machine has a battery and display issue. Im new to mac an confused about the current state of the M1s. Does anyone know if I can run linux as a VM or is there a way to run it. Also im confused with numpy, i read that it isnt supported by M1 but can rosetta2 help me with that?
Im doing a Master in AI and currently my workflow is running conda with jupyter notebook and the libraries numpy,tensorflow, pytorch, keras, matplotlib. (this might change to other libraries in future semesters when I do more advanced stuff).
So I wonder if I can do my daily work on a M1 or on some form of linux machine on it right now?
I would be so glad to hear from someone with expertise in this.

I think the key is “medically necessary”. If I went to my doctor in Canada and said “can you run a panel of genetic tests” he’d say “no, that’s a waste of money because you don’t have any other risk factors”.
Perhaps some of the recent developments in technology are too effective in moving people towards where others want them. Look at how many of us are actively trying to disengage from smartphones. Not having a smartphone is now unusual to a lot of people, but their use could be affecting us in ways that we don't yet understand on a scale of decades.

Cynicism reminds me of Brave New World, but even for walled gardens like Pinterest that I would rather not put up with, thousands of people outside the tech sphere have taken them up and used them for purposes which are materially advantageous to them. Imagine all of the Facebook-exclusive events that went on to connect people to marriages a decade later, or ideas for wedding registries sealed away in Pinterest. "If it weren't for Facebook/Pinterest/etc., then my life wouldn't have turned out like this." These platforms are becoming melded with millions of people's lives in inextricable ways. We have seen what is possible with enough ingenuity and progress, and we probably won't unsee it. People are happy to use these things, and imposing your will on them to change is usually what people would deem poor social etiquette.

Unless civilization collapses, I doubt it will be any time soon that technology regresses to before this point or a significant movement to move off these platforms emerges.

The whole m1 vs intel and AMD saga reminds me of innovators dilemma and the lesser referenced investors solution by Clayton Christensen.

In the solution book it basically details that everything goes through an ebb and flow of aggregation and disaggregation. This was often pointed out with Craigslist as the original aggregator and how many startups have been founded now to disaggregate it.

Interesting to read this article from that perspective. Intel and AMD disaggregated and found success for decades but now aggregating with SoC looks to yield massively better results.

Interesting to see certain business patterns continue to reappear.

Also shows that in tech no one has dominance if they don’t adapt.
The M1 chip can do uncontended atomics almost "for free", and offers a mode where it firms up its memory ordering without much performance loss, so I am not actually sure how much this gets them.
On the positive side, the people who are enjoying the walled gardens are probably not the people who would've participated in the open web with much positive outcome anyway.

I'm actually quite happy that certain old-time online communities are available and haven't been swamped by all the people who are online merely to use the walled gardens.

The open web can survive. And the 10% of people who will use it are the same 10% who would've used the open web to cooperative in a positive manner in the first place.
Why would he volunteer any information on that situation at all. Seems incredibly foolish.
I'm guessing it's partially a TOS thing, partially a lack of mechanism for transferring currencies between players, but also a lack of demand. Few games are popular enough in themselves to have a big enough market to make it profitable to run a competing alternate currency market.

With Robux you can buy 100 Robux for real money and then spend 20 Robux in one game, 15 in another, 40 for a skin you can use in all games and save the rest for use in some future game that you haven't discovered yet. This flexibility makes Robux much more 'desirable' than any single in game currency.
