I don't know about either, but Duplo looks more expensive as a starter kit (~$190 vs this at $85). Hard to tell, apples to oranges.
One big drawback of postgres when updating data in a jsonb column is that it needs to rewrite everything even when you update the value of a single key, this gets very expensive if you need to update many rows. As far as I can tell, Mongodb handles this better. Other than this I also prefer postgres despite this limitation.

The linked article explains in some detail how Rothbard dismissed much of neoclassical theory based on simply not understanding the maths was valid for both ordinal and cardinal utility preferences. And the philosophical difference is much greater than rejection of interpersonal utility comparisons (a position shared by many neoclassical economists and ethicists) or a dislike of modern algebraic formalism shared with many economists of all stripes but Mises' insistence that economics is "not quantitative" and should instead be a set of conclusions drawn from axiomatic statements about human behaviour. Mainstream economists have written a great deal about the limitations of models, structural flaws of certain models, and identifying the circumstances in which past performance is unlikely to be a guide to future results but only Mises insisted the act of looking at the data was 'childish play with figures'

So, you have a very short memory? The nonpartisan blanket primary was adopted in 2010, so no elections prior to that were Democrat-Democrat; 2012 also wasn't. 2016 and 2018 were.

You can likely monetize Youtube for incidental footage during your flights without a commercial drone license, but not for real estate, pipeline, etc.

This is more of a concern, and likely heavily violated:

I didn't really have practical experience in mongodb. However, after checking latest mongodb documentation, it seems they have magically solved those issues in the last few years

how about these assumptions or myths?

a. treat it as in-memory document database. expect to lose data if it does not successfully write to disk periodically.

b. concurrent reading and writing. it claims that it is resolved for specific scenario in multiple document-level concurrency,while put a lock on single document issue.

c. Total data storage should not be bigger than memory, although it was fixed in v3.2 with new database engine.

d. multi document queries introduced in 4.2 and 4.4, however it is conflicting with their own recommendations that says Each document should be independent, denormalized data model.

I like their syntax, feel so natural. postgres jsonb syntax is unreadable, a bit hacky for me. should i be concerned with mongodb myths?

The thing is, 99% of all JSON-in-DB uses people are advertising (insofar as traditional RDBMS are concerned) are incorrect or at least suboptimally designed. It’s extremely convenient but at the same time, it’s a major cop-out. Designing a database correctly (in the right denormalized form, with the right indexes, with correct relationships, with optima choice of primary keys, etc) is hard work, but it’s critical work to properly take advantage of all the algorithms and optimizations baked into the database engine. I see lots of people migrate from mongo and co to Postgres because they realize it’s a more appropriate data store but I also find them trying to hold on to as much of the original mongo approach as possible rather than just throwing in the towel and embracing traditional db interfacing.

JSON support in Postgres is really not intended to replace - even as a stopgap - what nosql was used for.
For now it only upper-cases but I would like it to "prettify" the code as well. So it is an upcoming feature. Hopefully it will even suggest SQL code improvements in the future. Contributions are welcome

"presumably acquiring a passport or other citizenship documents" Why are you being so bold as to assume that? I'm not saying that either way is the case, but you can't assume that that's the case. Also, as stated elsewhere in this thread, dropping the citizenship is expensive. Why should someone have to pay money to not be taxed by a country they have no relationship with, other than having been born there?
They would have had to assemble it during an imminently deadly storm.

BTC and gold absolutely can be used for fractional reserve banking. Gold was used for this purpose for millennia. Private banks store gold and make loans in bank notes backed by hard currency, and provided there isn’t a run on the bank, wealth is created. This is banking 101 and has been completely warped by central banking system with fiat currency printing, to the point where normal banks don’t even serve a real purpose anymore other than to decentralize allocation of capital a bit and outsource the vetting of loans. But these could all be done by the central bank at this point and the fact normal banks exist at all is because of history.

States do have complete power over elections, the problem is most state governments are just as corrupt as the feds and changing voting methods or procedures puts both republicans and democrats at risk of independent party members taking positions. It is about the two major parties trying to maintain political power despite increasing voter dissatisfaction going on decades.
Being an American expat is a complete nightmare. The retroactive GILTI/transition taxes enacted by Trump and the republican Congress put a massive strain on my family and finances. Imagine getting a bill for a significant portion of your life savings despite paying already 50% tax in your foreign country and having dutifully filed US taxes at great expense. Never have I disliked being an American so much. Some people have it much worse than me. The whole system is punitive and evil and punishes ordinary people for simply not living in the US. I can’t even open a simple retirement fund without it being a landmine.

I have already made up my mind to renounce, due to the immense stress and uncertainty. But you can’t even do that because all embassies are closed until further notice. Top that with the hefty fees to file the exit taxes and the renunciation
fee and it’s a giant shit sandwich.

I advise never living abroad if you are an American. And think very carefully before getting permanent residence or US citizenship as a foreigner. You are becoming an inmate of the IRS for life.

I strongly agree with this recommendation.

Personal Experience: During and after the economic collapse of 2007-2009 I wondered who was at fault; who to blame. I kept waiting for a clear answer to "THE root cause". Since then I've read things like Dekker's work, and come to realize that blame is not a productive way of thinking in complex systems.

A quick example: in many car accidents, you can easily point to the person who caused the accident; for example the person who runs a red light, texts and drives, or drives drunk is easily found at fault. But what about a case where someone 3 or 4 car lengths ahead makes a quick lane change and an accident occurs behind them?

> Come to think of it, this may be how therapy works. You are forced to take all the "mess" that's in your head and narrate it to someone else, in the process getting much simpler perspective on it.

On a related note: some people close to me like to unload the contents of their head at me. I couldn't understand why - I initially assumed this was a kind of "I need someone to emphasize with me and validate my feelings" thing. Hearing roughly similar thoughts about the same issue for the fifth time in a month got particularly tiresome, and I struggled to understand why these people are doing it. Until one day I looked at the evening "mind dumps" I take in my .org mode file, and it hit me: it's the same thing. It has the same cadence, and same tendency to jump back and forth between related topics. Much like I sort through my thoughts by writing them down in solitude, these people are sorting through their thoughts by talking at me. All that time, I've just been a rubber duck.

That is to say: I think not only this may be how therapy works, I think many (most?) people do this in social context - perhaps being afraid or unacustommed to talking to themselves, or to writing thoughts down (one needs to be a fast typist to write at the speed of thought, which is perhaps why this kind of sorting your thoughts through writing isn't as popular as through talking).

> but chose to keep the citizenship into adulthood, presumably acquiring a passport or other citizenship documents

That is ... not how citizenship works. Once you are a citizen, it can be very difficult to get rid of that status (souce: born in the US, will end up paying an arm and a leg to get rid of mine). Failing to get a passport, file returns with the IRS, etc. can lead to you getting ignored, but it can also lead you to getting into serious hot water in the future.

Example: most passports list the place of birth of the holder. If you are an American citizen, you must enter the US on a US passport. Because of American citizenship law, someone trying to enter the US on a Dutch passport with a place of birth listed as being in the US is going to have to do some explaining, and possibly provide documentation of renouncing their US citizenship. "I never applied for my American passport" is probably not going to cut it. It's a huge pain!

> Also as far as owing onerous back taxes go, aren't taxes you paid in your country of residence deductible ? For most EU countries wouldn't that result in net zero US taxes ?

It depends! But you still have to file, and there are still penalties for filing late, and even if you do, IRS reporting requirements to other banks mean that many European financial institutions won't touch you with a 10-foot pole no matter if you are also a European citizen.

Ones that will (like my bank), still won't offer you much beyond current account services and a basic savings account. If you want to do any kind of real saving for the future or basic investing (ETFs, for example), you are going to have trouble. The supposed disruptors in the market for this kind of thing (Trade Republic etc.) certainly don't have the resources or the interest in dealing with you either.
After seeing so many articles on HN about people quitting the OSS community due to toxic members, its refreshing to see something coming from a good note. I am sure others feel the same, and some work on their own open source projects and can appreciate the post. Simple gratitude can go a long way.
It's worth noting that the game never really died. After the "golden age" of the early 2000's the player base organized and formed voobly, which had it's own competitive scene and even game patches for the original game (a group of developers reverse engineered it and fixed stuff like pathfinding)

And I think the game is hands down played mostly by casual players. As of today there are over 40k people that have played at least a rated multiplayer match (how many more that never hit the multiplayer button?), and from those more than 75% have an ELO lower than 1200 which is on the lower end of the spectrum (best player of the world has 2500 ELO and one starts with 1000)

The game is still pretty challenging for newcomers, my 12 year old nephew loves watching me play, but whenever I offer him a chance to play he is "scared" because it looks to difficult, and says he prefers to just watch. When I was 12 (or even younger) I loved playing. Nowadays it seems games are designed intentionally to not being too difficult to play/learn
Why even use a server and mongodb behind it for that when you can straight up save the document to Firestore from the game. No servers, no mongodb maintenence.
This fits almost any situation (explicit vs. implicit) and I'm a big fan - when mentoring I tend to say "yes that was the default when you looked today, how do you know it won't change tomorrow? If you want specific behaviour, be explicit don't trust defaults." (more or less, depends on subject - commandline switches to code loops, same advice)

Someone needs to explain both sets of accounting practices to the public. Its public money we are talking about. Californians pay tons of little taxes on utilities to fund improvements and service for the less privileged - we expect that money to be put to use and not to line the pockets of utilities. Its quite obviously that our utilities have completely failed when it comes to maintenance and improvements. What are the folks managing these finds doing other than fighting? Time to explain yourselves.
You don't have to choose anything, if you're born in the US you're a citizen whether you get a passport or not. No affirmative steps required.

It's not surprising that banks would cotton on. The US has been very aggressive about enforcing reporting requirements on citizens abroad, and they do it via the banks.
This wouldn’t work at all, and in fact would do opposite to what you want.

You are trying to solve the problem of scarcity. This scarcity manifests in people having not enough. And I’m not taking about your Enough, I’m talking about people having to think about how much mortgage they can afford, whether to buy groceries at Whole Foods, Safeway or Walmart, or whether they can make payment on their car. All of this happens because we don’t have unlimited abundance of everything, and we need to determine how products and services that are produced get distributed.

For this purpose, we use money , and the way it works is people can make money by various activities that almost always provide products and services that other people value, and they give you money in exchange. This can be entrepreneurship, but for most people it’s a job one does for wages.

Some jobs pay little, some pay a lot, and it seems that your idea is that there are not enough high paying jobs around, and so you want to increase availability of these jobs by having people working these jobs give them up early.

This is a well meaning, but terrible idea. The problem here is that its result is less things get produced, so in aggregate, we’re even less wealthy than before your plan. Your plan is strictly negative for the society. It might benefit some people who get to have a better job than they otherwise would, but the society is paying immense cost for this job.

A better alternative than destroys less (though still significant amount) value is to just tax the high earners and use the proceeds to subsidize low earners. This way, you can have low earners earn as much as they would have after switching to higher paying job in your “retire early when you have Enough”, but you’d have both high and low earner continue working, so more total value would be produced.

> Surely it does not cost $2,000 to make a note of someone’s ex-citizenship.

Of course. Still, doesn’t renunciation of US citizenship actually require an act of Congress annually, under which all recent applicants are included? That the price was jacked up to $2000 is outright exploitation of desperate people, but certainly there would be some administrative fee (like the earlier one, which was generally considered reasonable) to cover the chain of people from your local US consulate to those congressional staff.
The author of this articles apparently thinks the money supply is increased by the central banks. This is not correct. Banks are the real money printers. Central banks may issue cash but banks can issue credit based on someone else's debts.

Depends, if the central bank can keep to inflate its balance sheet and absorb most of the additional debt of corporations and the public without creating inflation then nobody will actually have to pay. If there is inflation then that means the purchasing power of savers (ppl with bonds as their main asset) will be reduced (ie. savers will pay).
