>You could've earned +10% ROI in 2020 by holding AUD instead of USD.

And that would put you under the SP500 and the NASDAQ. Bitcoin in the same span did +286%.

> You most likely utilize a credit card or bank card for your day-to-day transactions. Nothing would change about this with Bitcoin entering the picture.

What’s the point of Bitcoin then? Because at the level of transactions Bitcoin can handle, we would have a bunch of central bank-like entities trading Bitcoin between themselves and a shit ton of intermediaries.

> Just because governments couldn't conjure money out of thin air to finance war machines doesn't mean there will be peace on earth. But taking away the money tree from governments around the globe changes the game completely.

That is not in any way a given. With all this intermediaries it’s not that hard to create “money out of thin air” through various schemes and leverage.

If you don’t interface with the network directly, your supposed guarantees go out the window, fast. And the global network today can’t possibly handle the daily interactions in any big city.

I recommend the Mattermost server:

And I disagree with those that say stdlib is the best way of looking at the best Go code for two reasons:

1. A lot of times stdlib code is restricted to use only backward compatible code with old API contracts, some parts are neat but others are unwieldy. It's a hit or miss.

2. Library code is different to application code. You can't get as much variety in style, abstractions, design patterns in stdlib as you can in a real world application.

I reckon it's important to read to get a whiff of succinct Go code, very good at learning protocols (like OAuth, Http etc) if you're interested, but won't be hugely helpful in building a CRUD app.

The inventive structure of capitalism is good for capitalists. Why would they make it any other way?
But shouldn't that be irrelivant? Any and every social media ban does not influence wether or not anyone is allowed to make use of AR. Only if a court issues a gag order. This comes down to the FCC telling people not to commit crimes. Which is fine exept it comes off as authoritarian.
Also not much land to freely live off of, unless you have the wealth to secure some already.

Culture fit is more an assessment of how similar the candidate’s current workplace is to yours, than anything about the candidate personally. It’s “unfair” in that it penalizes the candidate for doing what is appropriate in their current environment, without knowing how well they might be able to assimilate and be effective under your norms.
You can see why some people might think the vaccine is somehow fake since people went (and are still going) ape shit over masks even though right on all of the boxes it clearly states that masks do not protect against Covid.

And before I get lynched: I am all for the vaccine since that has been tested to work and I still wear a silly mask even as it does nothing since I'm tired of people complaining.
In the 1950s, employee benefits became non-taxable. Prior to that, employees would get health insurance as individuals and their plans would never be tied to a particular employer, kinda like how it currently works in Switzerland. So that one law drove our entire health insurance system to where it is now.
As true as this is, when it comes to Adobe products there's also no shortage of griping about things like UIs getting progressively more glitchy and less responsive and bad or nonexistent hardware acceleration… gripes that largely didn't exist 15 years ago when those same Adobe products were more closely tuned for the platforms they ran on instead of going all-in on one-size-fits-all.

Ah, yes, I was commenting on the TCP connection, which doesn't strike me as a solution.

Local storage is another story and probably a good alternative to storing something server-side, at the cost of more back-and-forths to validate data isn't outdated.

> I'm not certain whether it's unreasonable or it's become an expected norm; you don't expect to be able to leaving a shopping cart full if you're leaving a physical shop, for example.

It has become the norm, which is why it's (IMO) unreasonable to change that. Realistically, for a solution to be doable it needs to allow for saving the cart state, as otherwise websites will simply resist the change.
I think the main reason that phones don't have broadcast AM and FM enabled (even though the hardware is present in the chips), is because the digital chips in the phone (micro-processor etc) would generate so much interference (at these relatively low frequencies) that it would be unworkable. To sufficiently shield the main PCB would require a huge effort, which means weight, size and cost.

To get an idea, you only need to hold your AM/FM radio near your PC or Laptop.

Good point.

There are supposed to be QR codes here. I only visit one place, to buy food every 7-9 days, they don't have a QR code and employees seemed confused about what one was or why I might be surprised not to see one. I gave up rather than expend any more time trying to have a conversation through masks with confused people about something they can't fix.

They did, I noticed when I last visited yesterday, begin explicitly telling people that "One adult shopper" does not mean, "What a fun outing, let's all go to the store as a family and increases everyone's exposure for no reason".
>the person who is paying the bill is the person who gets to decide.

Paying the bill with money made by who? Sure, in the case of independent contractors the money is coming out of someone's pocket, but in most structured companies (which is what GP is talking about), the money comes from the people making and pushing the product. In real terms, the employees are the ones paying the bill.

>Taken to its logical conclusion the alternative would mean that nobody is entitled to make a decision about anything without taking a referendum on the matter.

That's literally just an argument against democracy, which we have, as a society, come to the conclusion is a generally good thing. (Well, fascists disagree, but society also has opinions on them.)

>Reasonable people will be interested in informed input from the people they employ, but it should not be surprising that in the end the painter you hired doesn’t get a vote on the color you want your bathroom.

You're conflating the relationship as a client and the relationship as an employer. You get to tell them what color paint to use, but not what type of ladder or brushes to use, or whether they're allowed to use the bathroom, sit while working, or eat lunch.

I would definitely recommend watching a few videos.

1) knife basics & skills. Not to nerd out too much here, but a good chefs knife is such an important tool (reply if you want any specific tips or have questions)

2) learn how to cut or prep the thing you are going to do on YouTube. Watch a couple of videos. Blue apron has good ones, but YouTube will also often jump to the good stuff if you are willing to use Google's search.

Most useful: basic knife skills should help you cut cucumbers and zucchini better. After that, broccoli can be really efficiently removed from the stem. Lemons can be fairly easily quartered and de seeded if quartered vertically. Literally anything else and whatever cut, just watch some videos. Onions - there are nice ways to dice them. Etc etc

3) be kind to yourself; prep the kitchen a bit ahead of time. Clean surfaces. Pre measure ingredients into bowls. Keep a trash bowl near your cutting board so you don't have to walk to the garbage bin. Start the timer after you've done a little work to get things ready, but before you've turned on any heat or sliced any vegetables (eventually, the prep step will be super fast or you can optimize your kitchen for your flows)
Would that not just lead to no good leaders over the long term? (with the good ones always resigning due to actions of their team members)
I agree with you the lawyer is leaving out anecdotes and trying to generalize from them, but all you have to do is google for a second to find some incredibly embarrassing messups from HR see microsoft amazon google for examples.

I will challenge you on the part though about the unspoken expectations of what HR is. To be clear, HR always says come to them if I need anything. If I have any problems they are there to help me.

Like you said, this is a lie. They are there to follow the law, and if they see you as a liability and your complaint doesn't have enough evidence and they can get away with finding a way to get rid of you and claim it's not retaliation they will. This happens often.

So perhaps HR should take on some responsibility for actively misadvertising the purpose of their existence. They should say exactly that:

We are not here for you we are here to make sure the company doesn't get in trouble so if on the books we can be in the right and reduce liability we will, so keep your mouth shut and do not give us any reason to think you are a liability to us.

Alot of problems I agree could be solved if HR was honest about their role. And did not advertise themselves as therapists as a way to asses early on if you are a liability and come up with a way to get rid of you and get away with it.

Military radar systems have modes and methods for detecting or removing jamming:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_jamming_and_deception#Co...

"The most important method to counter radar jammers is operator training. Any system can be fooled with a jamming signal but a properly trained operator pays attention to the raw video signal and can detect abnormal patterns on the radar screen."

So they do have the ability to look at the raw signal, and other methods as well to try to tell if something is real or not. Also there may have been multiple types of radar systems (different aircraft, ground vs air, different software revisions, different approach angles); it would be very difficult to fool all of them at the same time. For example if there were three aircraft, each at a different approach angle, the false signal would have to adapt to that approach angle individually for each aircraft's radar (or the supposed software glitch would have produce coherent results that are adapted to each aircraft's approach vector so that they all "see" the same thing in the same place). The same is true for false signals from natural sources. Which is not very likely unless you're dealing with a sophisticated human attack on the radar. To fake signals for multiple sensors on multiple approaching aircraft at the same time would require an even more sophisticated attack. Who knows if that is possible, but it does not seem very likely, especially in a peacetime operation during which there would be little reason to reveal such a capability.

No. I have nothing against BigCorp.

All her posts are like that. She wants to rant about something, but she doesn't give enough details for you to actually know what she is ranting about. Probably because she doesn't want to 'out' anyone by giving away too many details of the incident. Which is fine, but then why blog about it in the first place if no one outside your circle is going to know what the hell you are talking about?

I tried searching for one a few months ago when my Economist subscription was expiring. Unfortunately, not even a single one comes close.

The Atlantic is often advertised as the other high-quality publication. The target audience, however, is overwhelmingly the US. Economist makes me feel like other countries exist, and there is enough going on outside the US.

On the ideological front, I fell into this trap of finding a periodical with little bias towards the political left or the political right. While Economist touts itself to be centre, it would be naive to take them at face value as they clearly are centre-left. The silver lining is that they are far better than others who make absolutely no efforts to quell their suppress their ideological biases (e.g. New York Times).

I call this a trap because I've since realized that it is virtually impossible to expect a "truly" unbiased publication. As long as I feel that I am not falling into an echo chamber, I am fine with biases. Politically charged articles generally have more than one perspectives.

One would be hard-pressed to find a single publication as diverse as the Economist. I think this is primarily a historical artifact - they just have had a significant first-mover advantage (I think) and have accumulated a solid bunch of human capital. I'm slowly inclining towards subscribing to more niche publications instead.

Financial Times is a reasonable contender, though far more costlier.
I'm tempted to just say "Q.E.D. (see my unpopular comment above downvoted and greyed out.)".

> A downvote, in contrast, isn't something that wastes our reading time.

Unless the comments we are reading are decided by mob rule, and the ones that are obscured (and potentially meaningful) are merely unpopular. (I've highlighted greyed out comments on this site.) The truth is we don't know why someone down-votes, unless they annotate it, and even then we'd have to trust their explanation. Such an annotation wouldn't have to be in line.

I don't really care, personally, but what did people who down-voted me accomplish? I didn't really learn anything to avoid repeating some behavior--other than re-confirming this is not a place to make waves.

> The problem with a shallow dismissal is not just that it's thoughtless, but that it's thoughtless where everyone can read it.

With all due respect, this sounds like a well-worn mantra. Everyone can also read admonishments against thoughtlessness, maybe they should be taken off-line too, in the interest of fairness.

My personal "Eternal September" is kicking in, so I guess I'll leave it at that. Thanks for your reply.
Kind of. It also creates a weird obligation to reward coworkers for things, since have a budget of points to give out as well.

> Any different group with a semi-competent lord will absolutely destroy you and take your resources. You'll soon send around resumes begging for a lord to take you.

Not really. IIRC, in the French Revolutionary Wars, French troops were more effective because they were better motivated than those who were fighting for some lord.

It's probably necessary to have leaders, but that doesn't mean lords are necessary.
Pretty similar to the "do nothing script" idea. I find that my do nothing scripts tend to remain "do nothing" and so simple lists are a fine answer.

Can I ask if you actually fly planes? Moving the trim is exactly how most autopilots work. I usually fly the 172 and pitch changes made via the autopilot (I am usually flying with a GFC700) are done 100% via actuation of the trim wheel -- and the trim wheel is also the main control for adjusting control forces to maintain a given pitch attitude.

Edit: Reading your comment more closely, I think your concern is more to do with the fact that the trim is actuating the whole horizontal stabilizer rather than just the elevator? There is no separate elevator trim on the 737.
I've heard the same advice just as many times. I have been forced to conclude that the people who are giving this advice either don't know what they're talking about, or they're thinking of a very specific connection they have with someone that is impossible to replicate on command.

I'm a mid-career dev with about a decade and a half of experience, and I have failed at mentorship from both directions.

I have failed at being an effective mentor. I have reached out multiple times to less experienced people who say they're looking for a mentor on various forums. What I offer: my first-hand experience working in Silicon Valley; realities of the industry; tech stacks that are actually in use at various companies; interview prep or advice for self-study; interviewing experiences I've had and what I've found to work, as interviewer and interviewee.

After a couple rounds of email or video calls, the prospective mentee loses interest and we let the conversation die. I get a gnawing feeling that they were looking for a job hookup. Maybe I just suck as a source of value?

I have also failed at finding an effective mentor. I could really use someone who is on a path similar to mine, but 5-10 years ahead. I'd love to get some relatable, trustworthy advice about career trajectory, picking the right company to work for, how to know when a team or project is right for you, and what to do about it, what to specialize in and how, what to do about continuing education, etc.

What I usually find instead is aggrieved people who just want someone to listen to their tale of woe, or (slightly better, but still not good enough) people who are further in their careers, but a bad personality match. For example, they might offer advice about how to find jobs where you do as little work as possible while your boss ignores you, or people who want to get out of tech and flip houses or something.
