Not for comparable quality, you weren't. The prices varied depending on features but it wasn't twice as much unless you failed to control specs (I remember forum posters accusing everyone of being fanboys when they came up with a number like that by comparing, say, an Apple device with an SSD to something with a previous-generation processor and spinning metal drive). If you're buying comparable quality you get fairly comparable cost.
64-bits is plenty as long as you code it properly. The ids should be generated as part of the INSERT statement itself. This means in the rare case which has a duplicate id generated, you will get a primary key error and the transaction will fail. In most cases this means user gets an error message and retries.

If the above leads to any serious application problems, then you've got a lurking bug already, because you never know when there may be a network outage for example, and this would have the same effect.
I don't know what you mean by harvesting links on /newest. Can you explain?
It's a matter of economics. Passage will be tolled [1] and this particular tunnel is projected to make economic sense based on expected traffic.

Also, there's not much interest in a bridge/tunnel connecting Strendur and Runavík. That's not what the roundabout is for. Before the roundabout was proposed, there were debates whether the tunnel should surface in Strendur or Runavík. The roundabout is to connect both Strendur and Runavík to Tórshavn without either villagers having to circle around the fjord.

The other islands you mention are sparsely populated and have a hard time justifying the cost of subsea tunnels. Populations [2]:

Hmm, I realize its an iGPU, but...

I'm not very impressed with the 1000MH/s SHA1 Hashcat result. GPUs have moved forward in the recent generations by extraordinary amounts.

Even a low-end NVidia 1660 (which comes in laptop flavors and is a generation old at this point) is pushing 6000+ MH/s on SHA1.
Typical Forbes hit piece on an unorthodox thinker. Tony was a little to 'anarchistic' for Forbes. Key phrase:

"He experimented with a revolutionary—some would say anarchistic—version of a “holacracy” management philosophy, where no one at Zappos reported to anyone nor carried any titles. (It didn’t work: One out of seven employees took a buyout.)"

It didn't work? Really? Company was and is doing fine after 17% took advantage of a nice buyout.

The bias in the article is obvious - some clips:

"while Hsieh remained an extremely rich Peter Pan", or

his "fatal trait" of "not wanting to be alone"

Sure, it sounds like Tony was off the rails, and it ended in tragedy. But this hatchet job is not necessary. Just the facts please.

This comment made me feel normal again, thank you for explaining why I couldn't understand why I liked her music, from all the way up here in the 40s.
Well, you're assuming she was pushed in 'to a corner where they need to make an ultimatim [sic]'. All I know is that she used an ultimatum to challenge/corner her manager, and he decided to discontinue their working relationship.
Tell that to said company's stockholders and get their response :) . In the big picture though is new, correct knowledge is always welcome to the pool.
Yes - perhaps PG should have added qualifiers along the lines of "YC originated billionaires" versus attempting to cover all billionaires that have ever existed. It seems somewhat naive to say that every person with a billion in their bank account has built something and always is the best allocator of capital.

Oil and Gas billionaires leverage the fact that society hasn't figured out how to factor in negative environmental externalities. Consumer Staples billionaires leverage their supply chain monopolies and labor monopolies.

The original tech billionaires leveraged their early knowledge of computers/internet. Web 2.0/3.0 billionaires leverage the fact that society hasn't figured out how to appropriately regulate stuff that's similar but slightly different from their old school regulated counterparts (i.e. Uber, Airbnb).

In general, leveraging technology capabilities seems less exploitive than leveraging human/environmental resources/lack of regulation.

>> However he does pay less taxes than his secretary

No, he does not. He claims he paid $1,850,000 in federal taxes in 2015, do you think his secretary earned that much, let alone paid that much in taxes?

In addition:

“In 2019, Berkshire sent $3.6 billion to the U.S. Treasury to pay its current income tax,” Buffett said in his annual letter to shareholders. “The U.S. government collected $243 billion from corporate income tax payments during the same period. From these statistics, you can take pride that your company delivered 1.5% of the federal income taxes paid by all of corporate America.”

>> What's the point of being the wealthiest nation ever on paper, if there's terrible schools, high infant mortality, and lead in the drinking pipes?

A higher percentage of people graduate from college today than graduated from high school a hundred years ago, infant mortality is 6 per 1000 today vs. 100 per 1000 a hundred years ago, and blood lead levels in children have been reduced so much that it is claimed to be largely responsible for the drop in crime rates since the 1980s.

The point of getting wealthy is that it gives you resources to deal with your problems.
> With the exception of gravity, the behavior of macroscopic objects is pretty well understood in a quantum sense.

The rules of motion of quantum mechanics say that particles move according to the Schrödinger equation, AND that once a particle is measured (i.e. it interacts with a macroscopic device) the particle can be found in some particular place with some probability that can be computed from the Schrodinger equation.

So QM has 2 rules of motion: one for particles which interact only with other particles (the completely deterministic Schrödinger equation) and a different one for particles interacting with macroscopic objects (the Born rule, which assigns probabilities based on the Schrodinger equation).

Exactly what counts as a macroscopic object, i.e. when the Born rule needs to be applied, is an open problem (or if there is some way to account for experimental results without this rule). Until we have some answer to this problem, I wouldn't make too many pronouncements about how QM applies to the macroscopic world.

Huh. When I was there I certainly saw review for quality / novel ideas.
They're attributes that are common in somewhat demanding professional careers, and related to having an above-average IQ, e.g. being smart.

My main problem with the original comment was that it implied tech people aren't actually smart, when they are usually well above average. The problem is confusing general intelligence with knowledge in specific areas, not that they're secretly stupid. I think this is close to what you're saying as well.
I'm sorry, what?

What people are you referring to? I've read a fair amount about the gilded age robber barons and such. They were definitely not content to be paid back in "respect, recognition, fanfare". In fact that is more of a distraction and nuisance, and occasionally a liability or danger. The sorts of business practices used in the past to amass and keep wealth make anything today look like kiddie stuff.

Jeff Dean's response claims that the paper was "only shared with a day’s notice before its deadline", when Google "require two weeks" for their internal review process. So the issues were last-minute, but only because the paper was.

The article actually says that the price of new articles is approaching the price of recycled articles -- so it's not necessarily that more people are being lifted out of poverty -- but that we are producing more stuff for cheaper.
This isn't an argument over the merits of the ACA. Many of are fine with Universal Healthcare but not with deluding ourselves into thinking that it's a free lunch. It's a statement of fact intended to address the false premise that we don't know the causal effect of the ACA on various healthcare costs.

We know exactly what it was as we have direct evidence as to what actions employers took in response to it e.g. increased premiums, increased out of pocket minimums, reductions in coverage, etc. The result is that, pound for pound, the same healthcare is more expensive.

> Growth in healthcare costs also slowed in the years after ACA was passed as the various provisions were phased in:

This is unsupported by the chart. In fact, it shows the opposite: the largest decreases in healthcare spending growth occurred before the passage of the ACA. That aside, the parent comment is seeking the causal effect of the ACA on healthcare costs, not a low correlating trend.

How would publishing a paper open a 3rd party up to legal risk? Research papers aren't laws, and it is chronologically impossible for a research paper to influence already on the book laws.

Those jobs are only seen as obsolete in hindsight, because we can all acknowledge that society would not be made better by bringing them back. This wasn't the case at the time when they were being forced out of business.

Certainly not all physical stores are unnecessary, but it may not be the case that society is better served by brick and mortar stores than Amazon (and similar), despite lost jobs and (temporarily) abandoned commercial space. It may just be progress moving forward.
I’m just trying to get at the heart of things. I am not trying to be difficult. I honestly don’t find the concept of intrinsic value to be useful or compelling.

What are some examples beyond bread that meet your criteria of intrinsically valuable?

How do you determine if something is an “end-in-itself”? I find it difficult to definitively attribute that label to anything.

Warren Buffet pays a smaller percentage of his annual income towards taxes than his secretary. Income tax brackets were created to not make it a regressive tax, but it very clearly is that today. 20% of your income is a lot more valuable to you when you make $50K vs $50M a year.

I also am not sure how you're supposed to tax something like stock.

If Bezos sold all of his stock in Amazon, well, for one he'd certainly be worth a lot less fairly rapidly as the stock collapsed based on his massive sale of it.

He's taxed on the sale of his stock as far as I understand it, although the capital gains tax should presumably be higher than the tax on earned wages.

It seems sensible that when you're putting hours in, you'd get taxed at a lower rate than someone whose money made them more money.

But... if Bezos has 10 million shares and they're worth 100 billion dollars, do you... take his shares away even if he's not selling them just because his assets are worth more than a billion dollars?

I think it's fair to say the current state of affairs where his employees are working at barely livable wages and getting carted away in ambulances from his warehouses is certainly untenable.

At that point the federal government needs to step in and say that these places aren't paying these workers enough to live a comfortable lifestyle and support a family.

It's too bad the extremely wealthy are also so able to pervert our systems of governance through lobbying efforts which they can afford.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing - but also looks like a lot of work. What's the overhead in doing this additional work?

I have this strategy where I put all of my money into the stock market on the 32nd year of the century, then sell it all off 10 years later. So far it's had huge returns 100% of the time. Is it a good strategy?

Obviously this is a wacky example and I'm trying to make a point, but you could overfit lots of different investment strategies that would have been 100% successful in the past; that doesn't mean they are guaranteed to work in the future.

And for the record, I'm not advocating for any other investment strategy. I'm just pointing out that you cannot possibly claim that any strategy is going to be 100% effective in the future, because you can't predict everything that will happen. The conditions under which DCA is effective may not hold forever, and no investment fully protects you from all risks.

I think those measures are orthogonal. Often cheap goods are cheap because they externalize cost onto the environment.
One example is recycling: better for the environment (at least in some cases), but costs more than just throwing everything away, often to the point that it isn't affordable.
Tell that to Amazon warehouse worker making $10-20 an hour that instead of putting food on the table, roof on the head of his family, he should have bought Amazon shares. Bezo is epitome of what’s wrong with America and American “capitalist” system.

Microsoft last year had a similar thing, but related to sexual harassment [0]. I've never heard anyone fired as a result of airing their grievances. And to the contrary it sounds like, at least to the public media, they really tried to embrace and discuss what was at the heart of these encounters.

There's a problem at Google, and I don't think they solved it by firing this researcher.

Tmux allows you to set up several windows and programs in a session (or multiple tmux sessions at once, like virtual desktops), detach from tmux, disconnect SSH, and when you SSH back in a week later, just "tmux attach" to get back to where you were. Also works if your connection drops in the middle of something.
Sure, it's a lovely language. But I find the lack of some basic linear algebra, probability and statistics libraries frustrating. As pjmlp said in a parent thread, those are closed source and usually bought.

I guess a lot of the .NET ecosystem is like that. It's a shame, because MS has some open-source jewels like Z3 or Infer.NET.
The smart move for Google here would be to debut their own chips in Pixels, but then sell the chips to other phone manufacturers to use in their phones. Assuming the chips provide enough raw performance and interesting hardware acceleration, that would make it a reasonable business for Google to stay involved in.

This is a great example of why personal logs/diaries/journals/notes (whatever you call it) are a useful tool. It allows you to have a historical record of what happened. The simple act of documenting something in a structured manner seems to help commit the fragment to long-term memory.

I was just listening to some techniques on YouTube on how to fix presbyopia by switching to older prescriptions from current prescriptions to bring back the elasticity. Apparently focusing on reading or a computer screen too much can create the lens from returning to it's original condition/state as it remains locked/seized up. Might be bullshit but these eye drops would be amazing. I wonder if this is what David Sinclair was talking about when he said they will be able to fix bad vision soon.
Developing countries, not third world, that term is offensive. Those clothes allow people to open their own small business fashion boutiques which creates jobs.

"Jeez. Clickbait title, tons of fallacy, like goalpost moving."

Pretty much everything in the post is true, the title isn't clickbait, and I didn't see any fallacy. It's only "goalpost moving" if you confused the location of the goalposts in the first place. For the record: I have worked on protein folding, I did a PhD in a closely related area, and I work in computational structural biology professionally now.

The OP is saying that the general problem isn't solved, and provided (IMO factual, true) explanations why there's still a long way to go. Arguing that it's OK for some uses (which is what you're doing) is true, but not a rebuttal.

Maybe it's possible to use this method to come up with models "good enough" for rigid-body docking, or to get the overall idea of a fold. But it's also true that these structures aren't going to be good enough for any kind of drug discovery, which is what TFA says.
