Why? I'd fire an engineer who took on problems and refused to spend 10 minutes googling around and looking for solutions first.

I have no interest in humoring someone who dismisses the entire internet because it is written by "dumb people." Buying and reading books is how you draw out a project you don't want to work on.
As far as I can see he was greatly helped into power by Labour repeatedly choosing an unelectable leadership in the form of Corbyn, Abbott, McDonnell, et al.

They were extremely popular with a small vocal minority but when you’ve got Dianne Abbott having say she no longer believes that “every defeat of the British state is a victory for us all” why would anyone vote for them to be in charge of the British state?

So instead we’ve got the Tories and ministers like Nadhim Zahawi, who changed his family office rental company into “Warren Medical Limited“ ...right around the time he was put in charge of vaccine contracts.

It was a choice between the openly corrupt right and anti-British, student politics of the hard-left.
Japan and Germany were barely allies; Japan signed a non-aggression pact with the USSR and the Germans were happy about it because they didn't want any competition for the spoils they thought they would have. This is one of the pivotal things that led to German defeat because it freed Siberian troops to reinforce Moscow and reverse the German advance in winter 41. Hitler compounded the situation by declaring war on the US after pearl harbor freeing Roosevelt to open supply and support the allies, I think this is one of his biggest mistake. I think you exaggerate the amount of support the Nazis had in the US but there was certainly a strong neutrality movement. If anything the Nazis admired America and manifest destiny and tried to emulate it with lebensraum.

Cash equities settlement is t+2, as are most transactions in financial markets. This is just how the underlying plumbing of the markets work, nothing to do with robinhood. You have the illusion of instant trading, but under the hood there's a huge amount of boring settlement machinery.

Incidently, this is no different to the experience of a big bank or hedge fund trader. Settlement risk is real, and institutions have entire risk management departments devoted to it (banks even need to capitalise for it, to cover precisely these types of scenarios)

At sometime around 1976 Pascal was The Language of the Future. There was some project to program an OS with Pascal in Helsinki, possibly the Russian MIR-computer. Anyways I heard a heated discussion where they wanted money for "tens of man-years". Very annoying, so I wrote Pascal-compiler for 8080 just like that in few months. It was little restricted but quite usable. Then Very Strange Thing happened: the Finnish Army wanted it, maybe because it was not hampered by American Comecon-embargo and better than nothing (or assembler). I was ordered to write a short manual and forget all about it. Not a big deal, it was just a demo, and I was already interested in some other things.
Yes there was.

As far as PHP is concerned, a list is a subset of arrays where the keys are ordered integers starting at zero. Any array that doesn't fit this pattern could be considered a "map" -- there's no middle ground.

We as developers should be fighting back against this - not by memorizing everything (that would be impossible with the number of frameworks, tools, and languages that exist), but by relying more heavily on good documention, bookmarking that documentation, and finding answers ourselves rather than relying on Google. This means we will have greater expectations of projects to deliver good documentation, and empower ourselves to be less reliant on a global tech giant just to write software.
And yet people will still say they can't fathom a single possible use case for crypto. Tokenized, non-custodial securities on blockchain can't come fast enough.
> Hold on here... regardless of "infinite" volatility, the risk of a $300 buy order is at most $300, and when the brokerage is custodian of $300 settled real US dollars in the customer's account, there is no apocalyptic systemic risk.

While this does seem true, it appears the DTCC and the law don't care. It's my understanding that if a brokerage defaults on a payment to DTCC even once, it's game over. Brokerage goes out of business overnight. And the law prevents from brokerages from using client cash to make those payments.

> I would understand if this were simply a matter of Robinhood tightening margin requirements, but no, they were prohibiting all purchases, even from accounts with plenty of cash, and now we are hearing (not the first story they spun) that this was because of some nonsensical aspect of the DTCC collateral requirements (the buying customer's funds do not count and cannot be used as collateral).

This "story" has been said repeatedly, by very reputable sources and even by a direct competitor to Robinhood, long before Robinhood said anything about it. Robinhood is hardly the only brokerage to limit buying - TDA, Merrill, IBKR, and all Apex-cleared brokerages have also done so, though to a lesser extent. I have no love for Robinhood specifically and I frankly think that them going out of business would be a net benefit to retail investors. But I find it very hard to believe that this is a lie that Robinhood has fabricated.

Like I said, nothing Robinhood does to restrict margin requirements or require customers to put up cash helps them out of this situation. In the very short term, Robinhood must pay out of their pocket and it seems like they were simply incapable of doing so.

> Collateral shortfall would apply to all purchases of all stocks, wouldn't it? Why not cap all purchases? And what exactly were the collateral requirements on GME?

DTCC can set collateral requirements per symbol, as far as I understand. So they can jack up the requirements for GME while leaving other stocks untouched. Plus I'd guess most brokerages would rather halt a single symbol than completely shut down business for a whole day. As for what the exact requirements were, we may never know. It doesn't appear to be public information.

> Hilarious! This intra-day volatility was caused by the brokerage's actions.

Indirectly, maybe? Directly, probably not. Despite what wallstreetbets would have people believe, it seems like retail is not moving GME significantly. The same article shows Citadel's numbers for retail order flow and it's pretty much balanced buying and selling.

In terms of effect on effectiveness per person it is purely speculative.

It’s not like you would be the first people to get vaccinated with sputkin-V, you know. Rollout in Russia is slow (as per usual), but my whole family got at least one dose already, and we are all fine. No third arms, no blood, coming out of our eyes.

Russian vaccine is ok. Don’t know how true the effectiveness numbers are, but I don’t believe they are significantly lower in reality then on paper.
If you only look at European countries then there looks like there’sa lot of variance in outcome. Taking a broader view including the aforementioned Asian (plus Aus and NZ) countries Europe all looks pretty much equally bad in terms of results, even if their policy interventions have been quite different.
Honestly, I haven't been able to find any good sources for the reasoning. It seems like it emerged as part of Dodd-Frank after the 2008 financial crisis, but almost no one is talking about why specifically the rule was enacted. My best guess is that it might be to help protect users' money from being put at risk by a malicious/incompetent brokerage.
The problem is one of public confidence. 50% effectiveness would be very useful epidemiologically, but you'd still get a lot of pissed off infected people who thought they were safe. Conveying the message that we're going to stick a needle in your arm and it might not do you any good to a public that's already rife with scepticism about vaccines is a PR problem I'm very glad isn't mine to deal with.
> HSTS preloading blacklists may at some future point, block PWA as well.

What on earth are you talking about?

1) As far as I am aware, there is no "HSTS preloading blacklist". I'm not sure what that would even mean.

2) HSTS preloading is not a prerequisite for creating a PWA. Nor is presence on the HSTS preload list (not "blacklist") an obstacle to creating a PWA.

> 4) Investors believe they've outright purchased stock, because RH app shows the stock in their account, and money now gone (even though it's still pending the transfer). 5) RH then "margin calls" all of the people who had money transfers pending at the time of GME purchase.

Wait, what? That is the first that I'm hearing of this. That's crazy. Even without doing all of this, Robinhood having the ability to unpredictably/arbitrarily decide when to disable/enable actions on stocks is extremely bad for the market. They disguise this as protecting their users, but you cannot expect to have freedom as an investor if you don't know when or if you will be able to make a trade because a stock "isn't allowed right now".

Part of the problem is that Robinhood treats their user-base like children. Nobody wants to be protected from risky decisions or from themselves and you can't just do that to people. It is an insult and an unfair withholding of the right of risk and the means to make money from the little guy. That's the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Risk should be a right. Nobody should be able to force you to not take a risk.

I understand that talking to someone off a bridge is a wonderful thing, but at the end of the day, that person is never withheld the right to jump.

When I was in high school my family was poor and we frequently didn't have internet.

You don't think that threatening a trade war, threatening to break the NI agreement which was a red-line for the EU, blaming the British for your failures and closing off vaccine exports to the UK warrants a degree of hostility?

I suspect if the EU were to invade the UK, you would still be attacking the UK press for outrage.

For me the issue solved itself when I started using my first
columnar staggered ergo keyboard, meaning instead of having the
key rows slightly misaligned for historical reasons it has a
different height for each column of keys to accomodate the
different finger lengths.

Doesn't sound like such a drastic change, but within minutes it
will teach the user in what ways they've been typing incorrectly
all along - and in what ways the standard keyboard layouts
actually promote incorrect typing. It takes some time to get up
to speed again, but nowadays I type using all fingers evenly
~95% of the time, simply because in contrast to the
off-the-shelf design it makes correct typing far more
comfortable while requiring quite some finger gymnastics to pull
it off any other way.

Of course due to the different design it's not quite as
flexible, for example it's not great for gaming and mainly
shines when the mouse is used sparingly. But as I mainly work
with text it's been a great experience for me.
Fwiw... My go-to interview question has about four hard spots where people get stuck. I don't really care so much where you get stuck, so much as that you demonstrate good thinking and deploy strategies for getting unstuck once you hit your limit, wherever it might be. And, yeah, points are given for actually getting unstuck.

Strategies I want to see are along the lines of 'draw a picture' or 'work a small example, carefully, in full detail.' People who do these kinds of things /usually/ solve the 'hard part' they got to, and I give them a good review, wherever that was. People who don't manage to get unstuck tend to either a) not use simple problem solving strategies and/or b) get overly attached to an initial wrong idea.

(and I totally agree: taking a walk is totally a valid problem solving strategy, though it isn't easy to incorporate into a time boxed interview...)
My only quibble with that board is that I worry about how easily replaced the fan on the chipset is. In my experience that exact type of fan will inevitably fail in a moderately dusty environment...

True, but if Americans are being vaccinated more than EU now, is mainly because of him.
With respect i disagree. T+2 is not because of technological limitations of traditional databases or trust issues. Instantaneous settlement is possible (for example in the UK we have instantaneous inter-bank transfers), but it is not desired. Having delayed settlement means you can net offsetting transactions, it means you can handle outages in the infrastructure, it means you can unwind and correct errors.

Sure. But as we learned, the only way to get them to respond at all is to do what we're doing right now. Blow the story up all over the internet, accuse them of censorship, call for regulations and hopefully get the media to pick it up.

And just to be clear, I'm not saying that the accusations of censorship and calls for regulations are dishonest on our part. I really do believe that what they are doing is censorship and they need to be regulated.
Very informative! It even sets SSE2.
> I don't even trust myself

But you trust yourself so much that "advertising DOES work on me, but only insomuch as it alerts me to potential things"

That sounds a bit contradictory to me. (I think I could describe myself somewhat like you did in the latter part, and I still have absolutely no illusions that ads would not be able to get me. So I just actively try to avoid them. And I do not need or want anyone to alert me on potential things. Even further, I try to live by the principle of never, ever making any kind of commercial transaction with anyone where I have not been the intiator of the communication.)

Even if I could, I would not call that an achievement. In programming, we are expected to understand concepts, not memorize documentation of a library. Of course, if you are too specialized working with few libraries/frameworks, you will naturally end up knowing its methods by heart. But that doesn't mean searching things up online is a bad practice. In fact, I believe it is more useful to keep updating yourself from the web on better ways to write some piece of code than what you have memorized from a year back old doc.

Also, eventually, what matters is how you connect the bits and pieces you take from online and integrate them into your software. How you design and shape your software so that's its scalable, optimized and reliable is in your hand and that's what matters the most!

Hard to disagree with that. Where does that term crank even come from?

I think science theories wrt to public belief have both high false positive and negative rates. A lot of people believe stuff to be true that isn't (that climate changes are only due to us, are terrible, and that there's something we can do about it that will help), and don't believe true stuff that is (flat earthers... I'm pretty open minded but also quite sure we live on a fucking ball).

The obvious caveat is nobody fucking knows anything we're all just fumbling around in the dark but consensus and a sense of certainty certainly does help. It's surprising how shit a lot of the data that we have (even in this scientific age) is. And how easily manipulated the narratives can be.

So i think we should be giving more due, and less crank, to people like Hancock.. i know it's a personal thing tho, how your feel about a particular person. I just don't like to see a groupthink pile on, from any group.
