> Airplay doesn't offer multi-room audio; AirPlay 2 does

> AirPlay lets you stream from any Apple device to your speakers or TV

> AirPlay 2 lets you play from speakers over Wi-Fi, and it'll stay in sync

> AirPlay 2 lets play different songs in different rooms with multiple HomePods

Personally I've been very happy using AirPlay 2 with recent iPhones, a collection of HomePod Minis, an AppleTV and Denon Receiver. It makes it pretty easy to set up complex audio routing configurations from your phone. You can send a stream to several devices simultaneously while controlling volume independently and as a group. You can see what's playing on each device. Audio quality is good, battery impact seems fine.

I wish I could have strong AirPlay 2 support from non-Apple devices, but I know how the ecosystem works. Still, easy enough to use something like the Emby iOS app [1] to bridge arbitrary content into the system.

"Business changing" in this context would seem to mean "actually getting anything done at all", ie pushing back against the bureaucracy. See also "meets expectations" -> firing line, "exceeds expectations" -> kept on.

There are no convincing reasons to consider logistic regression to be outside of ML. ML isnt just deep learning. To me its a collection of mathematical tools that help in designing predictors. This involves stats, optimization, algorithms, stochastic processes, information theory.

The main difference between stats and ml is (i) community, (ii) stress on the details of compute and the focus on prediction accuracy rather than accurate recovery of parameters. A scheme that ensures good prediction even if the parameter is not recovered, for ML that's still a success.

The original question was ambiguous; it said "online" but seemed to imply "on the world wide web". I'm not going to judge whether the links I provided count; I leave that decision to the OP.

I would agree that an archive ala archive.org should be disqualified, because
few people would go to that site as the original. To me, Sunet is a little more grey, because while it is an archive/mirror site, many people used it and linked to it as if it were the primary source and not just an archive site. Before the web was indexed and search engines became popular, large mirror sites were the easiest way to access a variety of content, all in one place.

FWIW I had an in-law who was an outstanding salesman and whose father owned a very successful chain of shoe stores. The old man proved unwilling to let go of the reins and eventually drove wedges between himself and every one of his children. He destroyed the business all by himself and eventually went insane (thereby avoiding even responsibility for what he did).

I saw mostly the effect on the eldest son who was one of the best salesmen I've ever met. Have you ever met someone who could quietly tell you how something was made and of what it was made and still hold your interest? He could do that to an individual or to a class of students.

But the breakup with his father shattered his self-confidence and he turned to a series of minor managerial jobs in various production facilities. Today he's getting by, but I remember the bold and bright salesman that he was and smile.

I believe employment in a family business is a trap that can be very seductive but should be avoided. Children should always first go outside the firm for employment.

It is kind of frustrating when everyone talks about this like it's this obviously famous thing, acting pretentiously, lamenting how there's nothing like it anymore, shunning everyone else - and it turns out it's basically a microculture from not just America, but a very specific location in America, from a very specific time. "Things were so much better back then, but you wouldn't get it you weren't there and I'm not going to let you understand". Gah.

If you want whatever this is to come back in spirit, stop lamenting at very turn and be more open, make friends, build stuff, or at the very least explain what's going on and share the magic, we're all interested in niche stuff here and who knows, maybe you'll get in touch with someone with the same brain frequency you're looking for.

> [$1000 at 10% for 50 years] I'd have $17,000

Your math is wrong by almost an order of magnitude.

The rule of 72 is handy for thinking about growth rates. Divide 72 by the rate to get the doubling time.

At 10%, it will double approximately every 72/10 = 7.2 years. So about 7 doublings in 50 years = 2^7 = 128. So you can estimate in your head that the answer is roughly $128,000 and $17,000 is completely wrong.

EU as a concept is still highly supported amongst adults and young adults. And if anything Brexit strengthened that, since UK is a now a clown that everyone laughs at with all the issues they are going through.

A lot of young people migrate between EU countries and just that is the biggest visible positive that all working adults recognise. Its something people would not want to lose willy-nilly. Something realllly serious would have to happen for EU to fail catastrophically.

That's true - the real shape is probably S-shaped where as you go from poverty to just above the poverty line the gains are exponential and as you go from above the poverty line to upper middle class it's maybe linear and then upper class to "rich" it's logarithmic.
Tesla is at the level Waymo was when they started running Waymo service in Chandler with safety drivers. In Tesla's case, you are the safety driver. That's a huge achievement, but Waymo is now running with no safety driver at all. People will say "but it's a geofenced area". Sure, but Tesla is a ways off from doing even that.

But GPS is irrelevant to PaulHoule's statement about the Wiimote - the wiimote doesn't contain a GPS receiver.

The price difference between a Wiimote and an OxTS RT3000 is because a high-precision sensors and super-low-noise electronics are difficult.

ITAR doesn't stop you and me from buying an RT3000 - the thing stopping us is the fact it costs as much as a midrange car.
For me fundamental analysis was working so far. If you understand tech better than most investors, you can get some edge in the long term performance of stocks.

Yeah, is the thing that catches people up about compound interest. The original poster's argument (and math) makes sense if they wait 30 years (17K return), which is still a long time. However, waiting another ten years gives them ~40K, and waiting another ten years after that leaves them with ~117K.
I agree, but somehow a LoC became a well-established unit of measuring data transfer[1]. So maybe less-technical readers are used to hearing that comparison.

The main argument (passive investing) has issues when inflation is high, pulling this from a newsletter I read recently:

"Bianco further notes that, for an investor who bought the S&P 500 in 1966, it would not have been until 1993 — 27 years later — that the holding would have delivered real, inflation-adjusted gains."
I would say linear. Once you taste that $500 steak, it loses its luster super quick.

Ah, yes I meant to say 30 years, not 50. Thanks for the correction. the rule of 72 is a good one, and is what I actually used, the problem is that I did the math on 30 years but 50 years was a better number to use to make my comment, but I didn't update the number :(
As a software developer, I find biology to be fascinating but at the same time extremely complex and counterintuitive. Everything seems to be influencing everything else in subtle ways. You can never separate an organism into distinct modules that do distinct jobs and expose distinct interfaces, like you could a program or a hardware device when reverse engineering. The fact that physics and chemistry are being exploited in most unexpected ways doesn't help either.

But then the thing to remember is that biology is alien technology in the sense that it wasn't created by humans and is still ahead of our current technological progress. It's the only alien technology we've been able to get our hands onto.
How is the Emacs support for this LSP implementation? Does it actually work comparably well to VS Code, or is it going to be like trying to use Emacs as a Java IDE back in the day: fighting your tooling constantly and getting little help from it.
Big fan of rust-analyzer and have been using it since early alpha. Much better than RLS and approaching all the features in the Rust plugin for Clion/JetBrains. Got me off Clion during WFH because of the massive memory/CPU requirements of using a big IDE on a laptop when developing.

Rust being a terse language with generics and macros, sometimes figuring out what type an object is is hard and can easily get lost. Rust analyzer + vscode instantly gives context visually in all my code and even names types better than when the compiler errors at you when you get it wrong. This is especially true when dealing with a lot of async rust and you need to know the exact fully declared type of an object so you can fully decl it's type for a pin/box to pass around. Game changer. Being able to use to jump to definition is a huge win. I can walk code so much easier now and understand issues without a lot of mental energy or digging. It also updates in realtime as I code.

Big productivity boost I know for a lot of devs on Fuchsia. It would take me at least twice as long to get up with a new crate and be productive with it. The same is true as my own code base grows and I can't keep it all in my memory and remember. Impossible to stay as productive as code grows in rust without something like this anymore.

Also a huge win for the fact that it works remotely with vscode's remote features so I can have my code + rust-analyzer on my big linux machine remotely but still edit that code and get the context locally on my dinky/slower/older macbook.

My only wish is that it eventually gains some of the deeper refactoring features in vscode you can still get in Rust + Clion/JetBrains. Almost there.

Yeah this is pretty much it. Businesses do benefit from lower interest rates but beyond a certain point they have zero trouble financing the investments they want to make. After that you have to figure out how to convince people to spend money and if people don't have money to begin with you have to give it to them somehow (most likely candidate is government spending).
The internet is a deception.

Of that list the only one I’ve read everything they’ve written is Akhmatova.

Part of my brash delivery is because I’ve read a higher percentage of the total works of the two I deride than the ones I recommend. Mostly because I kept chasing the social dragon that they were ‘great works’.

The difference being that I think back and consider insights of what I’ve read from the recommended author’s texts almost daily and only think of the derided authors when someone else inevitably praises them.

If you like dark comedy you may like some of the works of Gogol from that list.

He probably leans harder into the academic category of ‘magical realism’ when his grounded stories take a turn for the absurd but the absurdities can have a humor of their own.

Here is another incentive:

When users share their bills and EOB, provide them with an automated analysis of their bills: what seems weird, which billed items were far above average prices, etc.

When someone comes to me and asks how to improve their knowledge of front-end or interaction design, I always recommend reading through these guides.

Yes, if you'd invested 1000 at 10% over 50 years you'd have 117,000. But let's stick with what OP said.

>if _you_ took _your_ $1000 and invested at a regular rate of return of 10% and waited 50 years _I'd_ have $17,000! An excellent return on your investment except your entire life has gone by

If we took this at face value, it means the 17k must have been some sort of consulting fee or something. I guess he's saying don't wait 50 years for a 17k consulting fee which you can't really argue with. Either that or OP should check his math
I wonder, is this somehow a latency-throughput tradeoff in disguise?

This seems roughly analogous to batch processing, where you structure the dataflow to be mechanically sympathetic to the machine doing the processing. Processing each item becomes more efficient, so you process more items per unit of time, but each item takes longer to process individually.

In the same way, it seems like we're structuring the crowd into columns to optimize the layout of individuals with respect to the floorspace. It takes less time to evacuate everybody, but each person spends more time in the building.

I'm not sure what to do with this knowledge, if it is indeed correct.

EDIT: I think the question I'm orbiting is whether or not this strategy can generalize to people. In the realm of ants, things like self-preservation and the value of the individual are very different from humans.
this sort of vague concern about passive investing from folks who profit off of active investing reads like wolves complaining about how the sheep aren't venturing out to eat the tastiest grass at the edge of the fields.

it also paints "passive investors" with a rather broad brush, as though every one is out buying exactly ^SPTMI in lock step. when really folks are buying all sorts of subtly different blends of the market, and usually topping it off with a couple of small personal choices.

In high school I got caught in the crowd once following a release from some kind of pep rally, I was effectively crushed against a wall while it passed. The gymnasium had plenty of exits, but the field-side wasn't where anyone wanted to go. Classes and the cafeteria were through three double-door exits on the non-field-side. After that one mistake, I started going toward the field and then walked around the exterior. I've kept that pattern up whenever I'm in any crowded place with a lot of people being released at once. I look specifically for the reasonable exits that are away from most people's interest, even if it takes me a bit longer (often it's faster because there is no crowd jamming up the exit).
