The problem most retailers face is that competing with Amazon requires substantial, multi-year capex into their supply chains.

The more forward thinking realized that the catch-up bill was only going to get more expensive, as Amazon continued growing and optimizing.

The less forward thinking... well, there's Sears.

As consumers, we rarely see "how" free 2-day shipping, same day delivery, BOPIS, etc. But suffice it to say, it's very expensive to retool legacy supply chains optimized for brick and mortar inventory delivery.

Kudos to Walmart, Target, and Home Depot for seeing what was coming.
There's a lot of value in using objective, unbiased, and verifiable data to support performance review decisions. Too many promotions are awarded to low performers and denied to high performers for no reason other than politics and personal favorability.

On every team I've been on, the highest performers are always the ones submitting the most PRs and changes. Using such objective data in a promo packet would be a step in the right direction.
I use a USB host-side switch [0] to quickly move my keyboard and mouse between my desktop and my laptop's docking station, since my 4k monitor already supports multiple inputs, and 4k capable KVMs are expensive and buggy.

In order to make the switch, I push one button on the USB switch, and then select the next input on my monitor (four button presses using the monitor's OSD). There's a great little tool called ddcutil [1] that allows you to send commands to your monitor via the i2c bus embedded in your HDMI/DisplayPort connection, so I tried to write a script to do the monitor input swap on either a key binding or after detecting the appropriate USB event.

It almost worked. My monitor only listens to the i2c bus of the selected input, so I need to run this script on both my desktop and laptop rather than just on the desktop. But apparently there was a bug in the way my (TB3) dock handled forwarding of the DP i2c data to the docking host. And by bug, I mean write forwarding was just not implemented in the kernel driver. So ddcutil would work on my laptop with a direct HDMI connection, but not when it was connected via the dock.

Anyway, long story short:

5.10 fixes this [2], so I'm particularly excited about this release.

Something most underreport right now is the way we buy stocks fundamentally changed.

The money flow used to be pension fund - > some middle men - > financial assets.

Now it is consumer on an app - > financial asset.

While I do not think `app traders` account for a huge chunk of investments, I still think more people are now shopping for stocks as consumers and not as traditional investors. People are picking stocks like they were goods. And they seldom move the markets.

Tesla as a brand is loved. The love for that brand transpires to the stock

You add to that the poor yield on nation bonds, the volatility, the multiple billions pulling out of the dollar, the value of city center real estate crumbling with WFH... there is a lot of money in the market right now. It's time to build.

Just like there is nothing UNIX about Gnome or KDE. I don’t really get your point. You try hard but the fact is that macOS has a very strong UNIX underpinning with zero signs that it is going away.
It's about them being allies, owners and 'good actors' geo-politically, economically (they play nice with Israel, they play it mostly reserved with Iran, they stick to the USD, don't do problematic deals with Russia/China).

The 'national relationship' tends to be more important than 'domestic issues'.

And FYI there was tons of reporting on MLB and his involvement in the torture of quasi-American journalist.
No even 5-years ago it was really hard. Few challenges I ran into as I had a customer pay for this:

User agents have to be the newest browsers, if you use an old one, they start not counting your votes prior to banning.

You will need an IPV4 space as they treat IPV6 as spam right now. 100K bots means at least 80,000 ip addresses.

They track login times across accounts which vote on a similar item, or it may not be login, but, it may be action time, so your cron jobs have to stagger.

The best way to do it, is pay people in third world countries to legitimately post. It was about $1 per person, per day to post 2 times. We would pay them once a month and it was insanely cheap. The issue is then Reddit started banning on geo location so now you need people in poor countries who have a VPN. If you can find 100-200K with a VPN at $1 per post, $100-$200K is nothing, as you are paying developers a lot more to do this.
Reminds me of the brilliant The Clock (2010 film)

It's played synchronized with the actual time of day. I got to see it in a museum in London. It was awesome.

Don't forget that the document you may be looking for may actually be called "payment schedule" instead of payroll schedule because someone wasn't good at following the implicit, unwritten naming convention.
> Is 'falls' related to 'falsch' at all?

Nope, according to Kluge's German etymological dictionary, "falls" is from a Germanic root most literally meaning falling (down) (just like English "fall"), while "falsch" is borrowed from Latin falsus, which in turn comes from the Latin verb fallere, to deceive (like "fallacy"). (Wiktionary also traces the two of them to different Indo-European roots.)

There's an interesting side note that German Fall (the origin of "falls") means "case" (both in the grammatical sense, related to noun forms, and in the senses of "a logical possibility" or "a fact": Wittgenstein's Tractatus starts out with "Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist" -- "The world is everything that is the case"), and in fact the English word "case" comes from Latin "casus" (originally literally 'fall' as in the act of falling down), and the German use of Fall in the senses having to do with logic and grammar was a conscious loan translation which Kluge says was devised by Christoph Helwig in the 17th century (intending to translate Latin "casus").

Kluge says that the grammatical sense of Latin "casus" for noun cases was itself a loan translation in Latin from the Greek πτῶσις (literally, 'fall(ing)') which was used by "Stoics" to refer to noun forms by analogy with the possible ways that dice could "fall" when you rolled them. (I don't know why the Stoics would have been the first to write about grammar this way, but maybe...) Apparently the word ptosis is now mainly used to refer to drooping eyelids (!).

Anyway, the idea of different ways that dice (or nouns or fate or situations) could "fall" are different "cases" is a commonality among many languages but the relationship is apparently conscious, on the part of educated people like Christoph Helwig who were trying to find ways of translating technical terms.

That also means that if the German programmers in the mid-20th century were trying to translate "falls ... dann ... sonst" the best English translation would plausibly have been "case ... then ... else" rather than "if ... then ... else". :-)

(English "else" is usually used to translate "sonst" in "was sonst"/"sonst (et)was", but "otherwise" is usually used to translate "sonst" as a conjunction. So you could also imagine that the "else" was inspired either by the dialectal form some other people in this thread are mentioning, or by someone who just didn't realize that "otherwise" would be more usual in this context for Americans.)
> the attackers where highly sophisticated and had the resources of a nation state

Also, the attack was carefully crafted. How could anyone expect or defend against a carefully crafted attack, by a nation state no less.
This is a truly terrible perspective. Many pedestrians are slow and extremely vulerable to the effects of being toppled by a wheeled vehicle. This is particularly a problem when people are leaving buildings onto sidewalks unaware of cross traffic moving at 10+ kph. Bicycles belong on the road with other vehicles.

> The american definition of "liberal" basically means socialist.

No, it doesn't.

Though it overlaps with a common American use of “socialist” to mean anyone outside of the far-right. Most American “liberals” are center-right corporate capitalists, which is also the narrow sense of “liberal” in much of the world.

> In 2020, "liberals" in america have very little to do with the original meaning of the word which meant "in favor of freedom".

This is false, and even more than just being liberal in this vague sense, most American “liberals” and a great share of American “conservatives” are adherents to ideologies which evolved fairly directly from 18th century classical liberalism, differing largely in whether they view the immediate goals of 18th century liberals as having been terminal or steps in the direction of the desired goal.
I started using reading glasses (non prescription) a while ago when I was getting a lot of migraines. My vision was fine but I had difficulty switching focal lengths. The glasses just made it a little easier and my eyes felt a lot better at the end of the day. Migraines reduced too.

The other simple one is to just increase font size when you’re feeling strain. I’ll often change my font size when I’m in poorly lit conditions or if it’s the end of a long day.

This. One hundred times this.

Those here arguing that things can, in fact, be found, or saying that my claim that "nobody can find anything any more" is absurd, clearly haven't worked in the ~5 large enterprises that I've worked in over the last decade.

Internal organisation in enterprises is shockingly bad. Remember, these people aren't techs. They have no idea what `find / -iname file | grep whatever` means. They crack open SharePoint and rummage around. When they want to save a thing, they just put it wherever. It's chaos.

I'm just implementing this for a few new projects at my current place and my boss has messaged me a number of times expressing his joy at just knowing where stuff is.
I am not so sure Tesla is overvalued. Oil prices are not going to be this low forever, and I expect a massive increase in demand for electric vehicles once gas goes above $4/gallon again.

Plus, millennials seem to greatly prefer the Tesla buying experience over traditional dealerships.
1. Their market share there is many orders of magnitude lower than in auto sector.

2. Their investments in research there are basically 0, compared to big players.

3. Even if they would magically capture large market there, it’s a business that operates on razor thin profits (expect for scams like Enron), that doesn’t drive high valuations.

Total car production worldwide, 2019: 92 million.

Tesla car production (2020) about 600,000 (?)

So Tesla makes around 0.7% of the world's cars. Something is wrong here.

If I had to guess, probably some kind of social engineering attack. Identify the supplier. Go on LinkedIn, look for employees of that supplier with a title that would imply sufficient privileges to enable the attack. Then get to know that person and target them personally.
These things exist for Bitcoin though many of them are a bit immature for obvious reasons.

LedgerX, for example, is a US based physically delivered options clearing house for Bitcoin that supports both retail and institutional customers. I've been a customer since 2017 and so far I'm pretty happy with them.

(They do futures too, but right now their futures aren't particularly interesting).
I agree with you, but one point is (and clearly these are not accurate numbers you posted) these 0.02% cost increases add up. One regulation may only increase the cost 0.02%, but 1000 at the same industry increases it 20%. And all of them increase the cost of entry. If you increase the cost of entry, then you’ll get less competition as smaller business that could turn into flourishing enterprises simply never take off or even get started because someone in their garage can’t find a profitable path. Or afford a lawyer to explain the legal hoops you have to jump through. Recently I was quoted $10k to have a lawyer explain to me 2 points about importing liquor. The result, I didn’t start the business. This is more of a problem IMO
The investment strategy for Bitcoin has always seemed pretty simple to me: It could be worthless one day, but there's also a chance it could be worth 10x or 100x or 1000x as much.

That asymmetry means investing even just a small amount (that you're comfortable losing) is an obvious choice.

It's also a fascinating technology (politics and monetary theories aside) and having some "skin in the game" makes you much more motivated to learn about how it works.
Among younger people I know (under 35), piracy is extremely common, and Netflix/Spotify/Steam is also extremely common (although the Netflix accounts are often shared with a relative or friend). They aren't really mutually exclusive.

What information is in this dataset that is interesting to people? Is it just a membership list, and is membership secret? Is it just to learn about whether famous companies have senior members in the ccp?
Only if their being overlooked is orthogonal to the forces that determine their success. If sexism does make it harder for them to succeed then maybe that's priced in accurately.
That's valid, if slightly odd, English. More commonly it would be "or else I'll have the OJ".
I think you are drastically misunderstanding the Nikola/GM deal. It is absolutely no lose for GM. If somehow Nikola takes off then they are supplying them with batteries and some other expertise they have. If it doesn't then the monetary investment, at GM's scale, was nominal. (Basically, if GM makes a mistake on a new car model)

I think the market is drastically underestimating how seriously the entrenched automakers are taking electric. They are coming from behind for sure, but I think one of the things you see consistently with Tesla is they are still very much trying to figure out the manufacturing and logistics pieces of building cars (rolling out new lines, scaling them, etc). The existing automakers know how to do all that. Are they going to make mistakes? Sure, but in 5 years you will see dozens of electric models spread through out them, and that will hurt Tesla.
The books are recommended. Some are slow so might take you time before you enjoy them. They are very enjoyable as well as being well written so we can improve ourselves as well as enjoy ourselves reading the books.
San Francisco has the boxes in front of the lanes at some intersections. I've found it fairly likely that cars will be stopped in them. :(

You don't need any special invitation or application to join the party. In fact, NOT joining the party can be a signal and a problem, which might complicate business setup, banking applications, things like applying for a car plate, etc.

My Chinese wife's data and my address is in the DB, but I'm not sure if it does anybody any good. So? Am I the enemy of the Free World now? Will I get hate letters? Death threats? She despises CCP and Xi as much as I do, but this is also very stupid and irresponsible to put this kind of information up for everybody's access.
Happens in countries perceived to be less corrupt as well. Consider the 'missing' video of Jeffrey Epstein's suicide.

It's exactly the right accusation. Trying to interfere in private affairs and basically deposing private property by force is the basic definition what communism did.

First thing communism did in my country in 1947 was deposing private property by force. And people who fought against that were imprisoned, killed and called "enemies of the people".
Maybe someone with more familiarity on the topic can chime in, but I don't think it's the effective PR move you think it is. Nobody, I think, actually cares who from a blame perspective.

The idea that there's face saving to be had by blaming it on someone sophisticated just doesn't ring true to me. It still happened, the details specifically about who and how don't make your board, your boss, or Wall St. care.

It's way more relevant how you react to the breach, than it is that the breach took place.
It's time to admit that computers connected to the internet can not be secured. Even if the entire operating system is vetted and locked down, and only vetted and audited apps are run on the system, there will always be zero day exploits. Science has come up with no possible way to provably secure network connected computers. So do not trust them any more.
Please prove me wrong, but I doubt you can. The most trusted computers in the world have repeatedly been hacked. And even if you could make a secure computer, people can not be trusted because there is always some way to compromise them. Maybe the best we'll ever be able to do is assume a system will eventually be compromised and concentrate on minimizing damage and fast recovery. Removing the incentive to compromise computers could be a solution, but that seems even less likely given our million year history.
Don't forget The Man in the High Castle, pretty much the best Amazon show IMO until The Expanse came over from Sci-fi - though they could have done a lot more with the ending. Have the Nazis go to a universe where Mars or Venus isn’t a rock and slug it out over who will rule the solar system, have political intriegue with a bunch of Hitlers plotting against each other, have the communists using dinosaurs as weapons, have the Nazis encounter an very advanced Egyptian civilization that never fell, endless possibilities!

You're misunderstanding what market cap is and trying to equate it with sales and other real-world metrics. The market cap is simply the number of TSLA shares times the price per share. Full stop. Tesla manufactures, sells, and maintains vastly fewer cars than even any single one of their competitors, nevermind all of them put together. None of that matters or has anything to do with market cap.
So by this logic, in regards affiliations with political parties:

1) Foreign countries should never hire Americans that have either voted for Republicans or Democrats?

2) Or to hire Americans that registered as either a Democrat or Republican?

So, by this logic, if China took a countermeasure against this, then it would be illegal for the CEOs and corporate executives of American companies, to legally do business or transact in commerce in China.

Because they would have likely voted for a political party, or have registered to be affiliated with a political party.

This is a very slippery slope here.

Now in there ... hang on let me have a look ... okay there's a 'Janice' folder and in there..." ... and so on, ad. absurdium.

The confirmation bias still exists today, too. On HN I frequently see users claim that Google sells user data, but that isn't true; user data is only used for ad personalization.

I also frequently see the claim that "Don't be evil" has been removed from Google's code of conduct, but it's still clearly visible in the document.

I hope we develop better tools to combat misinformation in the next few years, because social media is far too effective at propagating it. For every person that verifies and corrects a claim, there's ten others who will gladly repeat it. This is especially problematic when there's a bias to exploit, be it political or otherwise.
