Why not the opposite? Crime is down, policing is working: stop expanding police force size, keep budgets in place, and see what happens. We have no idea if it's "more/higher paid cops" that's causing the reduction in crime, or other societal factors. At a certain point it's diminishing returns to continue investing in something to try and move those last couple percentage points. You're never going to have a 0% crime rate, no matter how much money you throw at the problem.

Nullsoft WASTE – a decentralized f2f network
"If every American switched over to an electric passenger vehicle, ... the United States could end up using roughly 25 percent more electricity than it does today." That's not so bad. With about 15-20 years of lead time, it just means adding 2% capacity per year.
This assumes you only charge at home because you can, and only work first shift. A lot of people may wind up charging at work because that's the only place that could really make charging points accessible with no worries. At least 5% of people work third or swingshifts too, so thats a load that has to be compensated for.

You also need to worry about fleet vehicles charging, and other uses. So the off-peak capacity isn't always possible.
They don't know how to buy stock until they see the mainstream news say "download this app called Robinhood in order to buy this stock that will make you rich", which is why Robinhood rocketed to the top of the app store charts this week.

Most people do not tune out stories of the form "do this simple thing to get rich". It's the same reason endless coverage of the lottery gets good ratings.

Your mental model of how stock bubbles work is not accurate.
Good for them. Though I worry about the wasted potential of recent BLM protests. As soon as there began to be consensus about police violence and a need for reform, activists pivoted to a “defund the police” message. Whatever policy merits this might have, it created a missed opportunity to reform qualified immunity. The conversation pivoted from focus on real police violence to canceling anyone offering constructive critique of the movement (like David Shor).

So instead of having an ongoing conversation about police violence, activists are caught in a purity spiral to weed out dissent that won’t solve any problems.

I’d say it’s only partly true as a criticism. His documentary on the emergence of Islamic terrorism for eg is quite eye opening. It takes people through how some of the ideological progenitors were tortured in jails by US backed dictatorships. How they were armed and funded indirectly by the CIA and US backed regimes. And how the existence of these radicals was then used by the neocons to wage two destructive wars that are partly responsible for America’s stagnation.

The problem is the length. If he cut the length by 50 % the problem would be solved.

I think his documentaries show how complex the causes of some things are.

Amazon earned a lot of loyalty from me with a light pattern. An Xbox they shipped me was stolen off of my porch and they replaced it with no questions. I've purchased other things from random outfits, had them charge the card and then just ghost me.

That Apple is forcing FB to punch itself in the nose with 'privacy labels' is a wonderful thing. What I like most about it is that it is both brutal and yet ethical. The 'labels' are a requirement that rewards developers who kept their noses clean. FB chose to build its business on dishonesty, and now the metaphorical bills are coming due.
Due to current covid-19 restrictions in Ireland, as a result of briefly having the world's highest per capita cases in early january, the government's policy is:

> Only essential workers should travel to work. You should work from home unless you are providing an essential service and need to be physically present.

https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/covid19/living_with_co...

Facebook content moderation is unlikely to fall under "essential work" which is more concerned about healthcare, retail necessities (food/drink/medicine/cleaning supplies), and infrastructure. Given that they've pointed out moderators elsewhere can work from home, it's likely facebook cannot demonstrate that they need to be physically present to perform the work.

So yes, it is a matter for the government to get involved in if Facebook or its subcontractors are not complying.

As for Varadkar, getting involved is likely due to the fact this falls under his department's remit (as minister of enterprise), not his position as Tanaiste. But getting _personally_ involved is likely Leo looking for a good PR opportunity rather than the facebook employees insisting on the Tanaiste's personal attention. Or maybe he's just also their local TD, since his constituency is Dublin West where many people in Facebook offices in Dublin likely live.

EU need those countries mainly because of cheap workforce, army and to create this buffer between Central Europe and Russia.

EU cannot afford to loose the 8th strongest army of Europe and have it potentially getting aligned with Russia. It would be a disaster for Germany, to have Poland as enemy right now and have them doing military exercises together with Russia some km from the Germany/Poland border. Yes, Poland has a strong aversion to Russia, but being kicked out from EU, would force them to search for new partners, and Poland, together with Belarus, would open a tunnel from Moscow to Berlin. Germany dont want it. Russia would do everything to have it.

Another point is that a lot of sectors in Germany depends heavily on Polish workforce, specially in the border region like Brandenburg, Saxony and Mecklenburg Vorpommern.

That´s exactly one of the main complains from Hungary and Poland, regarding migration. A diverse country in terms of values is hard to lead. So in that matters you are pretty well aligned with them.
The fact that kexts were going away was not a secret, and has been a thing generally known about for YEARS.
As a counterpoint to the advantages, the disadvantage is that QUIC is much more expensive on the server side. You loose 25 years of stateless hardware offloads done by the NIC.

Measuring the workload that I care about (Netflix CDN serving static videos), loosing TSO, LRO, and software kTLS, like you would with QUIC, takes a server from serving 90Gb/s @ 62% CPU to serving 35Gb/s and CPU limited. So we'd need essentially 3x as many servers to serve via QUIC as we do to serve via TCP. That has real environmental costs.

And these are old numbers, from servers that don't support hardware kTLS, so the impact of loosing hardware kTLS would make things even worse.

That book was bunk.

By the time Edison made a light bulb, incandescent light had been initially demonstrated by Davy 70 years beforehand, and shown to practical by Lindsay 35 years after that.

Jobard, de la Rue, and de Moleyns had made experimental light bulbs 40 years beforehand, Lodygin had held a patent for 5 years.

Most crucially, Swan's lightbulbs had been lighting Mosley Street for six months. Carbon arc lights (also shown by Davy early in the 1800s) having been in commercial use for some time before that.

The main invention that made light bulbs practically viable was the improved vacuum pumps of the 1870s, which none of these people lay claim to. This is what led to the rapid development of incandescent light in the 1880s.
Every other news outlet throws claims like "retail investors own hedge funds" and "hedge funds lost billions on reckless shorts", but is there any evidence of that? I am a total layman here, but can someone point me to a source where we can see that someone "shorted 150% of all available stock". Else it seems like a manipulation by someone who has heavily invested and lost and tried to "memefy" the stock.
That’s a good thread.

Here’s the part that makes no sense to me: why can’t Robinhood use customer funds for their deposit? Imagine a degenerate case: all but one client make no trades at all. One client has $100k deposited and buys $100k worth of GME. Prior to settlement, GME drops by 50%. That client is (effectively) out the entire $100k, and they are owed $50k worth of GME. Robinhood needs to post somewhere between $50k and $100k of collateral to the clearinghouse.

This all seems entirely reasonable with one giant of exception: apparently Robinhood may not draw on the client’s deposit for this. Never mind that, at settlement, the client will be debited the entire $100k. Somehow Robinhood is expected to temporarily come up with an additional $50k-$100k for a two day period. This seems bizarre to me.
I have spent a total of 30 minutes of my life on Facebook, looking at a friends feed (I never had an account). There is always a few people who use the platform to express themselves in the most horrible way. 30 minutes were enough for me, there are many crazies out there using the platform for unamicable purposes. No way the moderators worst case is soft pork, unless they are only looking at flagged posts. I am not sure why people think they need the platform to "keep in touch with friends" . What happened to a good old call or a WhatsApp message or god forbid, meet in person.
> The best way to do this is to increase selectivity/restrict supply, raise prices, lower difficulty (grade inflation), and increase the time required to get the credential, while providing alternate activities for those who are inclined to do something other than receiving an education.

A mission that the Ivies are well on their way with. The average grade at Harvard is a 3.67 (as of a 2013 source) and the prices have never been higher (though that's an individual thing, what with scholarships). They only need to make it a 5 year program with a MA/MS tagged in to get really going; degree-inflation hopped onto grade-inflation and dollar-inflation.

Somehow, you then have to work Ultimate Frisbee or chess in there too, an athletics-inflation and club-inflation (?), so to speak. Kinda like Laurie Laughlin's daughter did with the varsity-blues scandal for admissions. I'd guess that's already happened then.

Is there any way GameStop, the company, can take advantage of this hysteria? Perhaps announce they're going to do a major rebrand, partner with Starbucks and become some game cafe of sorts?

I imagine GameStop, if their management is up for it, wants to create the expectation that their new true value is greater than their value a month ago and less than what it is now. If they can issue new shares at the difference and revitalize their company perhaps something meaningful could come from this for them.
Obviously what goes on there is a whole other level, but even in the the rest of the world, we should realize that allowing someone to a live and work in a country without enfranchising them is an affront to democracy.

I understand the viewpoint the way you're expressing it here completely. What I don't understand is when I see developers on Linux expressing confusion about why anyone would use macOS, as if there aren't obvious trade-offs to each platform.

Saying you'd rather spend less money, or just prioritizing other advantages of Linux over macOS, makes sense. But pretending it's not a big deal to give up most of the industry-defining creative and productivity software (notably excluding most developer tools) just doesn't make much sense to me.
Meh, you do have to watch your scope using "with," but it's worth the brevity provided if you write pascal code crafted to be sensitive to unit/class/record dependencies. If I was putting together a team, it might be prudent to include some coding governance around "with" I admit.

That has to be the most capitalistic opinion I've read in a long time. This is in essence: "let's just limit access to studies yielding no current or short-term anticipated industrial benefit to rich people". This is what monetary valuation means.

What do you make of studies potentially yielding long-term benefits? Yeah, nothing. This is depressing.
It's not unlike fractional reserve banking.

Imagine three participants: Alice, Bob, and Charlie. Alice owns a share of Foo Corp, the only such share that exists. Bob decides to short Foo Corp, and borrows a share from Alice's broker (Alice's broker gets paid for this).

At that moment, there are two shares that exist. If Alice logs into her brokerage account, she sees a share of Foo Corp, but it's really an IOU for a share of Foo Corp. If Bob logs into his account, he also sees a share of Foo Corp (that he borrowed from Alice). At that point, there are two "shares" of Foo Corp that exist.

To make money on the short, Bob has to sell the share and buy it later, so he puts it in the market and sells it to Charlie. At this point, there are two shares: a share owned by Charlie and an IOU to Alice from Bob.

Bob could be very confident about shorting Foo Corp, so he could also borrow a share from Charlie's broker, at which point there would be three shares in existence: an IOU to Alice, an IOU to Charlie, and the sole share that exists. Each of these participants, if they log into their brokerage account, do see a share.

These phantom shares can't exist forever though: Bob is paying both Alice's and Charlie's brokers. Keep in mind that either Alice and Charlie can decide to sell their share, which Bob could then buy, at which point he could cover the remaining IOU, and everything would settle.

But then, what if both Alice and Charlie just bought the share and weren't planning to sell it? Bob would be in a position where he owes two shares but there are zero to buy on the market. Normally, that doesn't happen because shares are traded often enough, but in certain scenarios (short squeeze, collusion between participants) there might be issues. At that point, Bob can decide to keep on borrowing the shares until one sells, or maybe he runs out of cash to borrow shares and closes his account.

That's when things get a bit dicey. At this point, there are two "shares", one actual share and one IOU for a share. What happens is that Bob's broker is in a fail to deliver position. They're supposed to deliver a share of Foo Corp to close the IOU but there's no such share to deliver.
This sort of thing really isn't all that useful, since no argument outside of pure mathematics is logically airtight. In particular, arguments accused of employing a slippery slope fallacy or no true scotsman fallacy are not generally bad forms of argument.
>but just try to explain in plain English what you learned afterwards.

Okay I'll give it a go for the films of his I've seen.

Century of the Self - Cohesive social structures in the West that once helped produce progressive movements have been hollowed out and decayed due to post-WW2 consumerism and an endless emphasis on the "individual" over the community to the benefit of financial elites. Curtis frames this development by following the rise of psychoanalysis and personalized advertising.

Hypernormalization - Media and governmental forces have become so intertwined with the rise of social media and big tech that there is a crisis of faith in Western democratic societies in which suspicion and cynicism have filled the gap. This leads to sham democracies and consolidation of power by technocrats who play people's fears and anxieties against one another, much like Vladislav Surkov did in Russia in the late 2000s to help secure Putin's position.
