IMHO good move for the ecosystem overall.

Beyond that, the formulation is really funny (bad?) though:

> Trading will move into limit only starting December 28, 2020 at 2:30 PM PST, and will be fully suspended on Tuesday, January 19, 2021 at 10 a.m. Pacific Standard Time

Assuming limit only == post only orders (which sounds like it in the sentence), how do you expect the trading to work?
That likely was true in that case. Your ex's anger treated you as someone capable of recognizing having done wrong, because if you didn't, you wouldn't be manipulable.

(That's not the same thing as saying you actually did wrong. Just that if you couldn't imagine having done wrong, her anger wouldn't have been effective, and she would have chosen a different manipulation tactic. Or alternatively, your ex's manipulative behavior may be distinct from anger - perhaps she found the appearance of anger to be useful, and so she acted angry.)

This ties into a bigger picture: should we choose to be someone who can be victimized? I was cheated on and lied to, and in examining what I could have done differently, I concluded that yes, I would rather be someone trusting than someone with their defenses fully up.

Usually, the LVT on its own will be sufficient to provide an incentive to develop in an economically efficient manner. The real problem isn't that. The real problem is that people do not desire their neighbours to operate in an economically efficient manner. It is just risk aversion in a different sense except the asset is being paid for by someone else.

Imagine that the US government would buy you a bicycle, any bicycle, at any price, reallocating from things that you don't care about, so long as you tell it how important a bicycle is to you. You are likely to describe it as being a matter of life and death.

The amount any human would pay for a view is different from the amount they require someone else to pay to obscure the view. Economic efficiency is not a goal in any sense. And any incentives such as the ones you provide would be struck down in the court of popular opinion because it is the outcome that is not desired, not the process.

You can now get IPS screen mods for basically all Game Boy models I think; there are some YouTube channels like Retro Future which cover Game Boy modding fairly extensively.

I had an original purple GBA as a kid and I had a great time on it with ALTTP, Mario Kart, Breath of Fire, and so on, but it having an unlit screen was what eventually killed it for me— I wonder if it's still in a box somewhere in my parents'. There's hardly any point now with having an Odroid portable that plays all the same games, but it'd be neat to see it working again.

I disagree with the author right from the start, It appears the author wants an email service that is anonymous, free, and let's him access it through a VPN. I don't think that makes sence (how does the provider make money?) and I think it's not what 95% of the public needs.

If you rely on your email for vital services your want email provide to operate like an (idealised) bank - store my private information with respect, and to be able to retrieve email even if my PC or account is stolen, and I am happy to pay for the privilege. Furthermore, handing over real money gives you standing to sue in the court of law if the provider doesn't uphold their side of the bargain. I don't mind providing real ID if it's a trustworthy institution with a real address and a phone number I can dial for customer support.

By contrast if you Gmail is hijacked, there is no-one you can call for help and they can also ban you with no warning for no reason. You have almost no legal recourse on their misbehaviour because they can do anything for any reason and it's free.

I was further surprised to read that the author sees no daylight between free Gmail, outlook, outlook Premium with your own domain (paid service), business office 365, etc. I don't think it's fair to call them all data collectors and the difference between then are not trivial.

I am not claiming the author is misinformed or hasn't done his homework - just that this take is from the perspective of 'internet of anonymity' of 2000's, not 'internet of service I can trust my life with' that we deserve.

Assuming you could still have limit orders cross the spread maybe?
Before wall street involvement there was a single fork of Bitcoin that was a viable currency with low transaction fees. After Wall Street involvement there are at least 3 forks, the biggest of which had fees spiking at 60 USD per transaction making it nonviable for anything but speculators, and the others having very low adoption. The protocol was decentralized but enough of the community that controlled it was bought out to bring it down.

> Python for serious game development.

While it's not python, Godot's 'native' language is GDScript, which is quite python-like.

I don't really see the point of the rest of your comment though. Python is fine, but other languages have their advantages as well.
This is the paradox of wanting crypto to be both widespread and free of government influence. It cannot gain "market share" without interacting in some form or fashion with the regulatory structures already in place, putting it under de facto regulation of any jurisdiction of the people who want to use it.
The argument as far as I'm aware is that it's like Bitcoin, except with transaction fees low enough to make it actually usable as a currency as opposed to being a pure store of value.
Yes, and that is the default. But people do charge to 100% occasionally for road trips (or for escaping a hurricane path, etc).

A good manager is worth his/her weight in gold. The problem is that 90% of managers I have worked with are not good managers. I was a manager (and ran my own business with employees as well) for 10+ years, have worked 25+ years in the industry, and have more than once helped not-very-good managers get their projects back on track. The #1 problem I have seen is managers not understanding what their job really is. The result is a manager who has a negative productivity impact on the team he/she is managing. Add a few layers of bad managers on top of that, and you have a dysfunctional company.

You don't need symlinks, setup scripts, etc. Try this:

1. Bare git repo in your home directory ($HOME/.files)

2. Alias for prefixing git commands ("env GIT_WORK_TREE=$HOME GIT_DIR=$HOME/.files")

3. Strict .gitignore file (that ignores all files by default)

Simple to add files: `h git add .vimrc`

> The fact that a function gives you the same result given the same arguments is not meant to be some kind of encouragement to redundantly call a function many times.

All pure functions are by definition idempotent, and this quality is often celebrated as yet another point of merit. What is the point of highlighting this quality if functional programmers do not expect to over-execute them?

> It's meant to give you a tool to better reason about the program logically. You don't have to worry about _when_ a pure function is called…

If you say you don’t have to worry about when a function is called, the implication is that you don’t have to worry about how many times that function has been called. Functional programmers tend to belittle this sort of reasoning, and yet this sort of reasoning continues to be necessary when evaluating long-running, interactive programs for correctness.

This downplaying of executional reasoning is precisely why even if using pure functions on their own doesn’t encourage overexecution, the systems which functional programmers build typically do. We see this most clearly in discussions of reactivity, the fetishization of spreadsheets as programming model. Discrete events are tranformed into discrete outputs in a many-to-many relationship and yet functional programmers continue to think it’s not important to reason about the code which executed in between, the when and how much, just because it’s a composition of pure functions.
Blockstream bought out most of the the btc devs who had commit ability. Their end goal is to cripple btc to where it is today. The goal of this is to build an unnecessary product they can charge for on a second level. Think skimming money like charge cards do, but offering no real advantage or service beyond that. So far they have found building a new network neigh impossible. Hence the memes: Lightning only 18 months away, after 3 years of "development." You can find hilarious round table interviews with Adam Back where one asks how they can use btc for transactions like at bars with the fees dwarfing the regular transaction. Adam Back suggested using an IOU network out of paper or maybe build an IOU app for that. Can you believe that? Hilarious!

I think we would do better by allowing parents more time with their kids by reducing working hours. By all means, access to better parenting media would be good. Maybe give parents some time to attend those classes or read/watch parenting media rather than insist they work 50+ hours a week or work two jobs.

I mean we've already seen a big shift in the EU market, given the drive to decrease the fleet average to 95g CO2/km. This is why the VW Group is now launching EVs on a near monthly basis, why Mercedes-Benz has launched multiple EVs in the past year, why PSA has, etc.

If they want to hit their goals, and avoid fines in the EU market, they need to drastically reduce the CO2 emissions of the cars they're selling. And realistically to meet those targets they need to start shipping EVs is significant quantity, which means they can't be quirky different vehicles, they need to be mass-market ones.

As a seasoned developer who was in early in JavaScript (writing a SPA framework before there were SPAs, creating complex CAD software in WebGL pre 1.0), I can say there are a lot of good, and some really really bad things about it.

As a former boot camp instructor, I can say there are many, many people who call it a first language, and a significant subset of these people that worship intricate knowledge of it's faults as if they were features.

I tried very hard while instructing JavaScript to understand why the faults were there and how to avoid them and why detailed knowledge was no longer relevant thanks to many smart people spending lots of energy to make them not matter any more, e.g.: q: "when should I use var?" a: "never, use let or const to avoid hoisting"

Unfortunately, I think one just has to learn a few more languages before they can take an objective view of their 1st.

While I won't list them out here, the author takes some, frankly, crazy statements if you read through the whole thing.

In addition, it seems unfortunate that some common sense measures against spam were simply unacceptable to the author. If you want to have a usable email, you have to have basic antispam protection.
I’m not sure what benefit I, the learner, get when the author makes editorial comments about how “unfortunate” certain features of a language are. It seems to me that that I’m better served by just quickly acknowledging that something different happens under certain circumstances, and then I’m taught the techniques that professionals use when those circumstances arise.

(Edit: Perhaps we need a clearer model of the student that is material is meant for. Novices will need a “just do it this way” approach, while experienced programmers will need more detailed explanations.)
What about the Apple IIgs (1986) and its 65C816 processor? I suppose it would be valid to consider it a version of the 6502 if you are not separating 32 and 64 bit PPCs, x86 and ARMs.
Ending the subsidies to the animal agriculture lobby, the industry that is the most destructive to the environment and causes unnecessary horrible suffering to trillions of sentient beings every year.
It's the cause of 90% of deforestation worldwide, the main cause of the 6th massive species extinction (due to deforestation), water pollution (75 billion cows, pigs and chickens produce tons of manure that are dumped in our rivers and leaked into underground water), a leading cause of green house gas emissions (from 14% to 60% depending on the study), one of the main causes of air pollution (manure is also sprayed to the air and we breathe it), main cause of ocean dead zones and pesticide pollution (because breeding and growing animals requires waaay more crops than using crops directly to feed people) etc etc etc
Yet tax payers money, billions of dollars in the USA alone every year, is being gifted to this extremely unsustainable and harmful industry, to compensate for their loss of sales (as consumers educate themselves, find out the truth behind this cruel toxic industry and move towards more ethical and sustainable choices), which is basically corporate welfare and doesn't happen with other industries. If a car manufacturer's sales decline, do you want your tax money to go to fund their company as corporate welfare or do you want your taxes used for hospitals, schools, roads etc? Why are we wasting billions of needed dollars to maintain the lifestyle of the owners of CAFOs (concentrated aninal feed operations, that is, big industrial animal farms -subsidies don't go to small farmers for the most part-)
Look up Agriculture Fairness Alliance if you want to see the data and learn more about the very critical and urgent task of ending these absurd destructive subsidies and instead help farmers transition to sustainable and healthy business models that will allow us to avoid the worst consequences of climate change if we do switch fast enough
