You are referring to the de jure claims, which Taiwan only maintains due to pressure from the PRC. If Taiwan officially cedes these claims, the PRC would respond with economic sanctions, because the PRC wants Taiwan to continue to pretend it is another faction of the same country still fighting the civil war and not an independent country.
In other words, the poors, social outcasts, people left on the sidelines, as usual. The inequalities are just increasing as a result. That makes me sick.
Certainly would have been a dominant strategy the past couple of months.
I dont see reason for people to downvote you: I find it exceptionally hard to believe that the capital building does not have a proper response to a small group of people trying to storm the building.

Here is my theory: the "coup" was such an utter non-threat that those in charge did not want to give an ounce of evidence regarding how they could respond in order to prevent legitimately threatening bad actors from understanding the possibilities.

The side effect of being able to move towards more restricted speech is just icing on the cake.

For the US I'm not sure I'm afraid. Here in the UK, we get the money if we want it. You can select either to have the dividend re-invested (called growth or accumulating) or to receive it normally quarterly (called distributing)...

I'm surprised you can't get a re-investing one.
If you wont need the money any time soon (5+ years from now) then that is probably an ok strategy.

There was once something called "Net Neutrality". As I recall conservatives were strongly against it.
Which ones should be eliminated?
If it's a monopoly, it should be broken apart. This could reduce or remove the need for regulation. Although maybe not in cases like this - protecting ignorant people from themselves because they can't think for themselves or fact check social media information. I'm not sure these problems can be regulated away either.

This may be never, or may not be on your time horizon. Be careful.

The other thing you're missing out on is cash dividends. It's not like "stock goes down I lose exactly the amount the stock goes down every time".

I would personally never recommend this investment strategy (100% Treasuries) under any circumstances. When evaluating risk, you have to consider that not making any money is also risky. Markets go up, markets go down. If markets evaporated (this has never happened) then your T-bills will be worthless because we'll be eating beans and freezing to death.

Don't make the mistake of thinking that skipping the crashes and surges are of equal weight. Even if you took all your money and invested at the very top of the market in 2007/2008 right before the crash, you'd have more money than you do now.

I hope this doesn't come across as mean-spirited. I genuinely want you and others to read this and of course have a discussion but also learn more about investing and risk/reward.

Please reach out if you want to chat. If you find this annoying or unhelpful I understand and wish you the best of luck.

Years ago (c. early 1980s), a friend of mine who was studying psychology quipped that one of his professors asserted that "70% of people do not engage in introspection".

I thought it was a remarkable statement and it certainly resonated with my then recently acquired hipster outlook on life.

But in the intervening years, I've seen little to indicate that he was wrong.

But I feel we also run into the reverse problem. While it's true that neither Hurricane Irma nor Harvey nor Katrina, nor the Californian or Australian wildfires, nor the strangely warm arctic temperatures, can be singularly attributed to climate change, the pattern of all these events is clearly climate change at work.

And so we end up stuck in this stupid limbo, where because no one can be certain that climate change caused this disaster, nothing is ever done in response to any disaster. We should be viewing these events as a serious call to action.

Suggest you learn what you can while paid about docker and micro-s, as gus_massa suggested, so you can fatten your CV in case you are fired. Your inability to focus and apply yourself may have been noted and it may have overflowed into your current projects. When people like that are noted it can often lead to firing, or you may be placed under closer supervision to better channel the true abilities they may also see in you.
The inability to discipline yourself to a task in an OCR manner should be eliminated for your own good.

There is no point in provoking China into a war because it would lead to a nuclear war which would end humanity as we know it. Everyone would lose in any all-on war between two nuclear powers. China has been far more provoking than the US, with Xi Jinping continuing to maintain a 2049 deadline for taking back Taiwan, with force if needed, not to mention cracking down on the pro-democracy party in Hong Kong, which has only inflamed tensions with Taiwan and really won Tsai Ing-wen her second term.
No, they've made purpose-built silicon for sia mining and it is no longer viable to mine on general purpose compute. As far as storage mining - it may be. last check (november) filecoin was the most profitable to host your disk space for but required a rediculous amount of compute as well as disk space (latest gen GPUs, 128G ram, near-100% uptime).

In the US the dividends are paid out usually with an option to reinvest them into your ownership of the fund.
I'm not going to even pretend this is a good-faith question.

Protests in Portland and other places led to mostly property damage. There were a few deaths, and that sucks. But it wasn't uniformly violence coming from antifa. And the protests were in support of racial and social justice.

On the other hand we witnessed the following on the 6th (among too many other things to mention):

1.) A literal gallows erected on Capitol Hill
2.) Thousands of people entering secured areas of a government building.
3.) A police officer literally beat to death with a fire extinguisher

This was all in an attempt to overthrow a democratic election. These were insurrectionists intent on using domestic terrorism to overthrow the American government and the concept of American democracy itself.

---

That is to say, what we witnessed with BLM protests is completely and diametrically opposite to what we witnessed with the so-called Patriot movement on the 6th.

I have absolutely no problem with social justice advocates using AWS as a platform. I do have a problem with domestic terrorists and their enablers using AWS as a platform.
So when you see a political movement that wants to take your country into a dark alley you're supposed to man up and turn your cheek?

The problem arises especially when the document is written in legalese. I also feel like I'm not really qualified to understand these documents - they are generally written for people who have the appropriate qualifications.

For example when buying a property in the UK, the soliciter will be the one parses the legal documents. It's crazy to think that normal people are expected to fully understand these, and it doesn't surpise me when they just blindly sign them. At the end of the day they want the thing and carry on with their lives - throwing caution to the wind.

What I like about "cramming a ton of functionality into [a single expression]" is that it doesn't leak any intermediates to the rest of the block, and it doesn't allow for mutation. There's a single output exposed; you can't accidentally use the wrong value downstream. You could wrap it all in an inner function, I guess, but that seems like overkill unless you plan to reuse it.

Though to be fair, having explicit intermediate variables is idiomatic in Python, from what I've seen. It's one of my biggest pet-peeves about the language, but it's not without precedent.
You seem to be arguing that those conspiring with criminal intent ought to receive protection from discrimination in the same way we wish to protect people from discrimination based on race, gender, age, religion, political affiliation etc.
To be able to exploit these "critical flaws" in SGX is quite difficult in the real world. That said, I agree that it could happen in extraordinary circumstances. If you fall under these extraordinary circumstances, you really shouldn't being using a computer identifiable to you in any serious kind of way nor connecting to anything you had ever historically connected to.

Or Biden can take no action and continue the status quo. I don't see how it boxes him in at all. The status quo would be fine if Xi Jinping weren't continuing to inflame tensions by setting a 2049 deadline for forcefully retaking Taiwan (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-46733174).

I've been here for a bit, just reading but I registered just to suggest you give the site a chance. Personally I feel political topics are often quite slanted towards one side of the argument, however one of the first posts on p1 is exactly why I do read them; a guy convinced of something beginning to doubt those beliefs and then going in discussion with people. I've found quite a lot of thoughtful discussion here and in general I'd say HN is a good broad source of interesting topics. Give it a chance.

Be warned of the large post mine coming to SiaCoin soon (the crypto-currency that powers Skynet). Massive inflation is coming to SiaCoin because of this to pay off Skynet Labs as they exit development on the Sia core protocol. David (aka Taek), the original creator, is leaving the Sia project to become a third party dev (working for the new Skynet Labs VC funded company) and will no longer be working on making the Sia core protocol actually work better. Lots of outstanding issues in the Sia core protocol still and with Sia losing their founding dev it raises concerns if the Sia protocol will ever be able to mature.

I kind of follow this sentiment. One could also say earn no more than you need and focus the rest of your time on something valuable to you. One hour extra spent working probably does not equal to one hour less working in 5-10 year.

I'll pray to the weather gods to send whatever snow would have come to the Puget Sound region of Washington your way.

Snow here sucks, for 4 reasons.

1. More than a couple inches on the ground is rare enough that cities and counties do not have a lot of snow clearing equipment. So when we get one the rare incidents of a foot or more on the ground, it takes forever for the streets to be cleared.

2. Most people aren't familiar with driving on snow, so even when the roads are passable it sucks.

3. People are idiots. As a columnist in the Seattle Times once put it, they will be at the top of a steep hill, have just watched 20 other cars try to make it down and lose control, and think "I've got a Subaru Forester so I'll be fine" and become car #21 in the heap at the bottom.

4. The ground here is relatively warm during the winter. It quickly melts the first layer of snow, which then refreezes as smooth ice sheet when subsequent layers of snow pile up. So where places with cold ground have snow with road underneath, we get snow with an ice sheet underneath between it and the road. We end up with roads that are technically more challenging to drive on, which makes #2 even worse.
open source software at this point is just a pawn for being misused by extremists.

someone once said 'the road to hell is paved with good intentions' or something like that.

anyway, i'll get some friends on there and organise a a̶t̶t̶a̶c̶k̶ party.

Look, what they did at the capitol was abhorrent.

> Perhaps you haven't seen this?

You have got to be kidding me - some people shoving riot police is comparable to burning people alive in metal cages? The people in the front are not even hitting the police, they are just pushing.

> Hate groups in the US

Why are we switching to other groups suddenly?

> I don't doubt

So basically you are making up imaginary things, then assuming people will do them?

> Trump's own personal legacy

A story about his father is somehow relevant?

Look, I will say it again, what they did at the capitol was abhorrent. But your comparison with Al Qaeda is indescribably worse. I'm utterly stunned to be having this conversation with you - it's like I'm living in some kind of alternate reality world.

Aee you serious? Do you have even the remotest idea just how disgusting your comparison is?
My 401k has returned 30%+ annualized (85% cumulative) since Aug 2018, 80/12/8 US large/mid/small caps (tracks VTSAX pretty closely)

As another point of comparison, as of python 3.8 you can do this in one list comp without nesting or double-computing areas with the walrus:

result = [area for x,y in zip(heights,widths) if (area := to_area(x,y)) > 10]

I don't think that's very easy to read; I'd opt for two list comps like

areas = [to_area(x,y) for x,y in zip(heights,widths)]
result = [area for area in areas if area > 10]

But I agree with OP that map+filter is easier to read.
