Yes this is what I meant. Basically if your in sell-side trading, corporate flows are your bread and butter. The way it works is some corporate customer has some hedging need and the sales desk slaps on a big fat margin that contributes to the majority of money being made. The trader sees this and he's a greedy sob too so what he does is he quotes the sales desk an internal price that is further away from the true market bid-ask. This usually involves some degree of bickering depending on how well the two desks get along, and whatever the trader is able to get away with contributes to his "trading" pnl. And yes it is as pathetic as it sounds and involves a fair bit of weaseling around. Less the case if your client is a financial institution though, in which case it more depends on how many flows and trades you get and hope it matches off
It's clickbait because it implies test failure, which isn't true. The test was successful, as the primary objectives were all met.
The factcheck article is from November 20th.
The Ballot tabulation website page says it has been updated December 9th (today)

Its been weeks since the election, We don't even know how many votes have been cast still?
This seems ridiculous. Most countries have final results on election night.
Again, your discourse comes with lots of "shoulds" that History has shown to fail whenever it gets confronted with the reality of geopolitics and the structure of power. It sounds oh-so-nice on paper, but paper accepts anything.

It is very abstract. You constantly talk about "the need of regulations" but don't get to specifics. You hope that by hiding in complexity under some abstract body things will work out. In reality, those "regulatory bodies with necessary independence to balance the needs of everyone" will be undeniably influenced by interests groups and shaped by the very people you want to avoid having too much power. Worse still, they get to be put in this position of power indirectly and out of reach from people to express their will through vote or elections.

No matter how much you talk, at the end of the day we all should be asking ourselves what are the things that we want to "regulate" and make it the systems as clear as possible to avoid regulatory traps.

Here is my proposal for a system that can control the abuse of power by corporate entities and at the same time avoid this trap of believing that "regulations" are magic dust that makes anything better:

1. Put a hard cap on the headcount of a corporation. Any company that gets past a certain size (say a few hundred employees) has to be split up by the end of the fiscal year.

2. No single person can be a board member or manager at more than one corporation. No subsidiaries shenanigans, no shell corporations, no "holdings". People and companies can have investments anywhere they want, but these should grant them any executive control over the board.

3. Governments must never bail out a company. If no company is "too big to fail", there are no systemic risk and bail-outs are not required.

That is it. By limiting corporations by size, you avoid any single entity to dominate the space, you promote healthy competition, you avoid systemic risks, you avoid rampant inequality and corruption, we don't get lost in a sea of abstractions and we avoid the hell of regulatory capture. We might lose the "benefit" of economies of scale and we will never see a "Unicorn-style startup" and we will never be talking about "FAANG" again, but I think that would be a good thing overall.
I think that shows that "just adding declarativeNetRequest" wouldn't really accomplish much? Developers would continue using the old API and users wouldn't hold them accountable because they wouldn't know the difference or what the tradeoffs hard.

Not saying V3 is a perfect or even good solution but just thought the option you suggested doesn't seem like it would work.
> "per your profile, you work at Facebook (which I assume making well over $250k a year) and yet your pushing for a socialist agenda?"

I'm originally from Finland. Now that I've been living in America for a while, I can compare both.

The modest success I've had in life is largely thanks to Finland's safety net and accessible opportunities. I received free college education in a specialist field (film post-production).

When I started a little software startup in said field, the Finnish government gave me small grants and loans to help me along. I didn't have to worry about healthcare during those "ramen profitable" years. The company wasn't a big success by any measure, but it helped me build a network.

Thanks to so-called socialism, I didn't have student debt and didn't need rich relatives to go into business on my own. But that's not a story that fits the American idea of entrepreneurship, I guess.

Although my current job at $BIGTECH pays well, the expenses are also calibrated very differently. Preschool for my kid costs close to $3k/month, which is more than 10x what anyone pays in Finland. The quality of the education is similar. I plan to move back to Finland when the kids are a bit older. It's just a more stable place to raise a family.
This makes me want to check out Southern California more again once it's more feasible.

I'm up in Silicon Valley, and... would say some things have gotten better in 10 years. The craft beer explosion has definitely hit here, too, and even more so around Sacramento.

A terrific new tiki bar opened in Oakland (The Kon-Tiki) and multiple terrific new tiki bars opened in San Francisco (Pagan Idol, Last Rites, Zombie Village; Smuggler's Cove opened in 2009, so not technically within 10 years, but they're considered one of the best bars -- not just tiki bars -- in the world).

As much as San Franciscans like to dump on San Jose, I think downtown San Jose has actually gotten pretty cool in a lot of respects, and that's entirely in the last decade.

There's a fair number of other smaller towns scattered around the Bay Area which are seeing some silver linings of gentrification.

I could probably come up with a more detailed list, but despite some very real downsides, particularly economic -- real estate prices really are out of control (and there is no One Single Cause to point to, despite a lot of folks trying); homelessness has become a genuine epidemic -- it's still a great place to be, and it's hard for me to think of another place in America where I'd genuinely rather be. (This is distinct from "another place I'd still like.")
Hopefully. Not informed on how well that trick works on neighbors compared to the more distant suckers.
Wait a minute... What about copyright? Like I would love to have a blog where I can just copy and paste my favorite recipes, and add a few notes myself. But I don't do that because it seems like plagiarism.

Or another option is to use this site, and then use some kind of 1-5 star rating. And then just see my favorites without all the other bs that food sites show you.
That's one I haven't heard, do you have a primary source for that beyond the tweet (which doesn't link anywhere)?
You could play with CSS, but I'm just selecting these with mouse.

A good middle ground between a ghost kitchen and a full on restaurant is the food court model. Restaurants get to pay a little less for rent, keep some in person dining but mostly focus on takeout.
Opps. US passed China with the last few flights. Counting SpaceX and Electron in the US stats.

They might make it, but it’s generally a different, cheaper, product. You can easily see this with food - the ingredients and nutrition information will usually be different.
Well. I guess the Ministry of Truth has spoken.

There couldn't possibly be other dissenting views on that. It's _true_ my friends.

Vox is clearly an impartial observer. The Senate hearings which led to impeachment hearings on Trump (because he investigated Hunter Biden, who has been under FBI investigation for over a year now... a materially true fact) could not _possibly_ have been politically motivated.

Shutting down speech does not lead to "facts" or "truth", it leads to uncertainty. YouTube is basically the Catholic church, claiming they know the facts, they know the truth, and Galileo is spouting nonsense.

If you're so confident, then let those people speak and use arguments (even your ludicrous wall of links) against them. That's rational and dare I say it, scientific.
Got a pop up dialog asking me to uninstal. I did it.

At work we have to shut down two of our older web tools because of this. We're too small to put resources in fixing. They were old and he didn't port to javascript. (It wasn't non-trivial, you could draw a box around some points and it would pass that data along via ajax.)
Yes, government-subsidized hype is a fantastic generator of venture capital money, which just like gov't funding never needs to produce any ROI.

VC fusion seems relatively harmless, vs public subsidy, but each one is siphoning money away from projects that could actually work, particularly battery improvements, solar electrolysis catalysts, ammonia synthesis, and other renewables support.
Google would lose a lot of customers if they did that. If that's ok with them, it's their business to drive into the ground.
It is. The government is expected to prevent tragedy-of-the-commons troubles, spite houses, and other anti-social troubles. This is largely why we even have a government.

Suppose a person buys a house to retire in, on a peaceful quiet little street with plenty of room to park. The neighbors then build: an 80-story apartment tower, a supervised injection place for IV drug users, an organometalic peroxide production plant, a hog farm, and a tire recycling plant.

Maybe we overdo it, but yes, we're going to curtail private property rights.

Yep, spot on. As a technologist (and person with eyes) it's frustrating when I visit family and friends and see just how much great technology, production craft and standards-setting effort ends up not making it to the average viewer's eyes for mundane reasons that mostly happen between compression artifacts in distribution, misleading marketing, misguided "sounds-good" featuritis, consumer device UX design fails and a typical haphazard living room install.

No, it is not. It's intrinsic to the technology. You see the exact same unpleasant numbers in entirely state funded fission, including everything China is currently building. CCP certainly isn't paying the same costs out of "politics."

I want to be clear: I'm generally pro nuclear. I'm just exhausted by the smug "scared idiots and politics ruins fission" when the situation is considerably more complex.

This is a lot of words to basically project a motivation onto the reporting about a thing which actually happened that isn't there.

You're getting downvoted because this reads as "concern trolling". Let everyone else manage their own feelings.
There are reasons for favoring 24fps and grain even into a digital era. Studies are still ongoing on how brains interpret different frame rates and how they effect the suspension of disbelief.

Clean grain dramatically increases the acutance of an image and additionally helps to prevent compression banding issues for cleaner, better looking videos (as long as delivery compression is done properly). There's basically nothing that you see on TV or in cinema that hasn't had grain added. It makes such a huge difference that oftentimes actual film grain is removed, color and vfx are done and applied, and then digital grain is put back on because the image improves so much. Even many video games add subtle grain (not the over the top grain settings) because of how it improves things. Film's natural grain is the gold standard here and it's definitely not going away.
If liberal arts colleges priced their programs sanely, we'd see more people going to college for the humanities. It's sad that they have to continually hire more administration (where all the money is going) and inflate costs.
Does the journey have to be difficult to make the destination worth it? I suppose it does. Doesn't feel that way when you're still on your way though.
>they typically refer to things like mail-in voting as "fraud" to begin with

Not "fraud." Illegal votes. In fact, there is a case brought to the Supreme Court by Texas and 17 other states (36% of the United States) alleging this exact thing: that many mail-in votes were illegal, due to unconstitutional rule changes which allowed them to take place[1]. That's not ok to talk about on YouTube?

It seems like most of the legislation is doing two things: restricting algorithmic sharing alone, not the ability to share. Leaving arbitration of what is good or bad in the context of the company.

Unless I misinterpreted what bills were brought forward.

I don't know why you are phrasing this as a both sides issue. Misinformation is an accurate description when nearly everything about the election being stolen is an explicit lie, unless we cannot rely on their own words in court as defining what is true.
While this makes sense to me for actual not terrible people legit trying to work things out, I do wonder if it could be kind of a dangerous therapy for an abusive or toxic relationships.
> say you saw your boss doing something you perceived to be illegal.

Keyword being "perceived".

But let's examine the premise.
Do I have any evidence of this act? Do I have sufficent expertise to determine if what I saw was actually illegal? Where are my biases? Can I argue my case in a coherent and believable manner?

and most importantly in this particular case, are there literally thousands of other people who contradict my position?
So you’re saying that if the engines had been off the starship wouldn’t have exploded? Try again bud. That’s still an object full of compressed methane and liquid oxygen falling at terminal velocity.
>"Should" is not a principle of law or of reality, for that matter.

It can very well be a principle of law. In certain legal codes, it actually is.

As for reality, that's a pretty low bar.

We have many "shoulds" (e.g. you should not cross a red light lest you get a ticket / prison) that are not some inherent property of reality or physical law, but things we've decided upon.

In fact, those are the only things that makes sense to consider as "shoulds". The constraints of reality are not negotiable, so should there is superfluous.

"Starship isn't anywhere close to the primetime. It's at least half-a-decade to a decade away from initial reusable testflights, and perhaps more given the under funding of the Artemis program."

What would be the reason to believe it's that far from being usable? How would Artemis funding have anything to do with Starship?

"It is worth remembering that early on in SpaceX's history, Musk made a dummy rocket and took it to DC to convince politicians to help allocate COTS & CRS funding to SpaceX."

Proton is pretty amazing. Because of diversity in "Linux" (lots of distros to test) having it is better than not.

If you knew anything about Ken Paxton you wouldn't doubt the person before yours comment. He is very likely guilty of several crimes and generally unliked in Texas. It is not unlikely that he is doing this in exchange for a pardon from Trump on the last day (week?) of Trump's tenure as Prez along with 100s more no doubt. This suit will go no where because no one has presented any evidence of widespread fraud or that states were outside their rights as to how they conduct their elections. It's a joke like Paxton.

>Compare that to the dirty looks I got walking around SF in a Buck-ees hat that happened to be red. It bordered upon comedy.

For those who doubt you, I ask them to ponder the following:

Put on a "Make America Great Again" hat and walk through downtown Chicago, San Francisco, Ann Arbor, or Cambridge before or after election day 2016 (or 2020). Now, put on a "I'm With Her" or "Biden/Harris 2020" shirt and walk through Provo, Fort Worth, or Pensacola before or after election day. In which scenario are you more like to be yelled at and/or physically attacked?
The facts aligning in the Senator's favor does not make the request partisan.

Of course it's partisan. Had Trump won, and Biden voters were publishing content like this with the same lack of evidence, do you believe that Democratic senators would still be urging YouTube to take it down in the interest of fairness to Trump? I think you know the answer to that.

The scary part of this is that elected officials, who were presumably elected by people that thought they were going to protect the freedoms granted to them by the Constitution, and who must take an oath upon taking office to "support and defend the Constitution," sat down and wrote a letter that gleefully trampled all over one of our most fundamental constitutional rights. Since they were successful in this endeavor, it will happen again, on other, more expansive, partisan issues. Down the slippery slope we go.

The simple fact of the matter is that people are entitled to their opinions, and in the United States, they have a constitutional right to express those opinions in the same way and on the same platforms as those that disagree with them. The only problem is that now we have politicians who believe that those rights should only be extended to those who are on their side. Both sides of the political aisle are acting this way, and it does not bode well for our future as a country.
By definition that is almost every communication that a human makes, whether through art, technical books, education, news, opinion pieces etc. They are all attempts to influence an audience and there’s always some kind of agenda behind it.

I appreciate you addressing this, because it speaks to the point.

Lies, falsehoods, misinformation and irrational statements are all protected by the first amendment. As is uttering insane and unintelligible thoughts in public.

If speech is used to further a crime or directly causes civil harm that result in damages (ex. assault or nuisance), there are existing applicable criminal and civil laws to either punish or provide a remedy.

If for example, the police were to execute a lawful warrant to search your property, it would not nullify or burden your fourth amendment protection from unreasonable searches and seizures.

Similarly, civil remedies (i.e. tort law) allowing for compensation for damages due to negligence - say from getting trampled in a crowd that was spooked by someone yelling "fire" or "shooter" - would not place limitations on your protected right of freedom to assemble.

The biggest problem with the campaign to justify censorship or moderation of misinformation/disinformation under the guise that it causes harm, is that it removes the measurable injury element of tort law and replaces it with vague and abstract notions of either mass ethereal or psychic harm (which the Supreme Court has expressing found against).
it is pretty impressive, but the lag really kills games for me.

Go supports dynamic linking and most Go binaries will be dynamically linked. On Linux, this is mostly due to optional features which can be easily disabled. The optional features are all related to supporting rare and unusual system configurations and do not affect normal operation. Note that cross compilation with Linux as the target does not support dynamic linking, so all Go Linux binaries compiled on a non-Linux OS will be statically linked.

Regardless of how we scope it, Go is still the only mainstream language capable of producing statically linked Linux binaries without libc while still allowing full use of the standard library.

Why Stadia instead of e.g. Geforce Now? You can play your existing purchased library via other streaming platforms, and you can switch to playing them locally if you ever buy a gaming PC without having to repurchase them. With Stadia you're locked in to having to buy your games again if you ever want to play on a different platform.
