I think that is true at many levels of government, but at the top level, the job of the leader is to set direction and choose the people below to implement it. It’s different than following someone else’s lead. You probably shouldn’t make “bold decisions” per se, but you should set the values that enable bold decision making by the lower downs.
Normal? What other business does that? I can’t think of one.
I already get emails on my phone and they're a natural medium for a newsletter. Why would I want to install another app for the same thing?
It's also possible to really care in a way that doesn't match up with what the company wants. Let's say you work at YouTube and really care about the user experience - you probably wouldn't want to introduce first one, then multiple mid-roll ads. If that's your job, "really caring" is going to burn you out.
I actually like the current API im working on, as in, I like the business problem that we are trying to solve

But I can't stand the enterprisey tech stack with 17,000 immature dependencies and abstractions which end up making it more brittle than just hardcoding everything
Note, it says you cannot take your Starlink to a different address (or I suppose, put it on a boat, plane, RV, etc):

https://www.starlink.com/faq

"Can I travel with Starlink, or move it to a different address?

Starlink satellites are scheduled to send internet down to all users within a designated area on the ground. This designated area is referred to as a cell.

Your Starlink is assigned to a single cell. If you move your Starlink outside of its assigned cell, a satellite will not be scheduled to serve your Starlink and you will not receive internet. This is constrained by geometry and is not arbitrary geofencing."

Although, whether this is a technical limitation of the bandwidth/footprint, or an operational strategy is someone more knowledgeable's guess.

Does it have to do with how many beams they choose to / can create from the satellite antenna array? And only certain cells with concentrated users are "enabled" for service? Until more satellites come?

Do they actually lock your subscriber ID (?) to the particular cell and would deny it if it appeared an an incorrect cell, or is it as they say literally, as long as a cell is served, you could be one of the "all users" within the cell?

So many questions.
Keep in mind the $99 is the price for the beta. I’m not sure if they’ve confirmed the non-beta price.
Nevada or even Mexico could play regulatory arbitrage, build nuclear plants in their jurisdictions, and export the electricity to California.

I suppose Mexico might be cheaper as Nevada lacks water, particularly in remote regions where there'd be the least local resistance. Baja California has the Pacific and the Gulf of California; Sonora has the Gulf of California.

California's unique history of opposition to nuclear is unfortunate, but there are larger dynamics that are also suffocating nuclear in California; dynamics that at most are only marginally stronger in California as compared to elsewhere in the United States. Oregon or Washington could also build more nuclear plants. They already export a significant amount of electricity to California, especially to Southern California. (See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_DC_Intertie) Nuclear is disfavored everywhere, and even where it's allowed and nominally profitable the RoI still sucks, so it doesn't take much friction to shift investment elsewhere. We need change at the national level to make nuclear practical again.

Though, now I'm genuinely curious why Mexico doesn't have more than its current two nuclear plants. PEMEX? (Note: Not that I think that Mexico is some third-world country bereft of regulations and organized opposition. I'm sure many of the reasons are similar as elsewhere. Still, I bet therein lie some interesting and informative stories.)

In theory, if you give Tether some dollars, they will store those dollars in reserve and issue you new Tethers. In practice, there is no evidence that any part of that happens aside from the minting new tethers part. Most likely there is some amount of money and/or crypto held in reserve, but despite allegedly having several tens of billions of dollars in reserve, they refuse to do an audit.

I think the currently most plausible answer for how Tether works is: 1 )Tether issues tokens to OTC exchanges in exchange for an IOU 2) The exchange buys BTC with it 3) The exchange sells that bitcoin for dollars, and pays off that IOU. This almost certainly wont fly with regulators, and has many ways it could explode, hence the investigations.
AskHistorians, in due course. They disagree violently amongst themselves offstage but will fight alongside each other to stop anyone else saying the truth in public. You can be a primary source: They decide its validity.

Mostly I do now believe History needs 50+ years to get distance from the personal. I like Martin Gilbert and Anthony Beevor immensely. I've had both Russian, and American historian-aligned-people take them down gloriously. I don't think either Gilbert or Beevor are seen in good standing, all the time by people in Moscow and Harvard.
Done — I think antialiasing looks better on Retina screens in dark mode so I kept it only for that case (removed it for non-dark mode or non-Retina).
I just say, "Cancel my subscription." Don't play their game, don't give them an inch, if they ask why, just repeat "Cancel my subscription". If they say something else, just say "cancel" and nothing else. They will cave.
People interested in learning what Forth is all about could examine Chuck's cmForth. Both its metacompiler and the Novix chip (or RTX 2000, both versions may exist) are pretty interesting.
My expensive 12v camping fridge and lithium battery just saved the contents of my fridge so there's that at least.
Ran the country but couldn't fix the problems. I actually think he was given more prominence as a noise/distraction by people who really ran the country, which is entirely normal.
The latter. You can initiate whatever connection you want from inside the cgnat, but there's nothing externally accessible yet. Mine has a few different openvpn tunnels (clients at the starlink side, servers in datacenters elsewhere) going different places.
I have heard speculation that the issue is actually satellite signal steering. They’re using phased array antennas on both sides so the satellites need to know where to be listening
Other people have recommended getting into support, and it really is a good option to consider.

A lot of the suggestions here are a bit more long term. There are entry level support jobs in tech that will give you valuable experience, _now_, for a pathway to engineering roles. Many companies will also give you a budget to buy courses, books, conference tickets, etc. Staying in support isn't a dead end, anymore, either. Remote companies will try to pay you based on location, but salaries can get very high once you stack up experience (120k+/year).

Regardless of future plans, you'll have an advantage over trying to learn while doing unrelated work.

>Quebec is 99% renewable[0] (95% hydro, 4% wind) and runs through the coldest of winter just fine!

Comparing hydro to wind and solar is unreasonable.

Hydro is a battery, wind and solar are not.
I don't remember where I read it, but apparently one person was successful with stopping a free weekly paper from being delivered by reporting littering to the police (they tried telling the newspaper first, but they didn't stop).
I wanted to follow up and say:
a) you can buy part of a coin, it scales to 8 decimal places! You don't need to buy a whole coin.
b) it is money already, there is no need to 'sell'
c) profit and and loss by definition gets a little weird with currencies. Purchasing parity power comes into play. When trading shells for widgets, you might end up with more or less widgets, but they can be more or less valuable per unit. If you are still thinking folks are playing the "buying btc with usd to sell for more usd later" you haven't quite grasped what is actually going on. :-)
Perhaps via reference to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BlooP_and_FlooP ?

EDIT: though, in that context, I would parse "out-floop" as a transitive verb meaning "to FlooP more, to a greater extent, or faster, than <something else>", rendering its opposite actually "under-floop".
Yes, but how many of those crimes are from strangers? I've heard that most crimes are committed by those close to the victim - either family or friends.

They haven't released any real info on it. But there's been teardown videos of the CPE showing the phased array design. And the patent for the terminals, which is public, shows a dual beamforming phased array. It clearly needs to be in order to maintain a seamless make-before-break with rising and descending satellites that are illuminating specific areas on the ground with spot beams.
Do you live in California? Because apparently some services have a California-only web interface to unsubscribe. If your billing address isn't in California then you can't access that page.

Because of a California law that says they must.

Nope, it's all on you.

You don't say what Government but I bet whatever it is they're not compelling their citizens to throw parties.

> I don't mean to shift the blame away from our mistake of hosting the party

That's exactly what you're doing and nobody here is going to buy it.

> we could learn from governments that actually take this seriously.

New Zealand took it dead serious. Why didn't you learn from them?

NYT was once known as the paper of record decades ago. In the past recent years they have starting slipping on their journalist standards and reliability. They were pivotal in pushing the WMDs in iraq for example as well as russian collusion.
What kind of fraud does it sound like? I gave my credit card to the merchant and said they could charge it for auto-renew, but that doesn't seem to put me under any obligation to make sure the card is still valid next year - credit cards expire or get canceled all the time. The merchant is free to cancel the subscription if the auto-renew fails.
It's a competitive price for a satellite service. HughesNet and Viasat will charge upwards of $100/mo for ~25 Mbps service with significantly higher latency and limited data allowances (<100 GB/mo).
People already can and do choose Apple knowing that they are entering a walled garden.

Apple has made a strategic decision to maintain this walled garden. This decision is one of the company’s key differentiators.

Your position appears to be “I want to force Apple to abandon a key market differentiator in service of a marginal gain in personal freedom for a marginal segment of customers who would actually care about such change.”

Apple customers are lacking choice in software just as much as Trader Joe’s customers are lacking choice in food brands.

Visually, Satyricon was one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen in my life, but also one of the most boring.

If you're looking for films full of sex and violence in ancient Rome watch Caligula[1] (starring, appropriately, Malcom McDowell in a role not too different from the one he played in A Clockwork Orange). Unfortunately, apart from the sex and violence this film doesn't have much going for it. But I'd still rate it far higher than Satyricon, except on the visual level, where the latter film has few equals.

[1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caligula_(film)
Kind of, yes. You don't have to learn very much about law to realize that trying to codify/define everything to the extreme is a fool's errand, so we just punt and leave it up to "a jury of your peers".
$900 to charge a Tesla in Texas right now
They say this, but your credits aren’t actually thrown away immediately (at least they weren’t in 2018 or thereabouts). I learned this by ending up in exactly the position you describe - trying to get rid of credits before canceling - except I gave up with one or two left. To my surprise, they were still there once I was done canceling.
No the most beautiful thing about Bitcoin so far is having people who are ready to buy it at $XK/coin helping those who bought it at $X-1K/coin.

The ugly thing about Bitcoin will be when coin holders realise there are no people ready to put in $X+1K/coin, so people who bought at $XK will be ready to sell at $X-1K, and those who bought at $X-1K will eventually sell at $X-2K.. then $X-3K, then $X-4k...

It's ok for people who bought at less than what is selling now. Not that much for those bought above it. In all this those who bought at $XK, will be happy to minimise their losses at $Xk - $1K and so on...
Wow, I had no idea gas power plants were that inefficient. And I suppose it's a lot harder to turn natural gas into heat to produce electricity with turbines at a power plant, which is then sent to homes to turn back into heat with resistive heaters than it is to just send the natural gas straight to the homes in the first place. I didn't consider that those extra steps would add up to such a high loss.
Add me to the list of NYT subscription failures. Sorry NYT, but I will never sign up again (and I think you are a good newspaper) unless you come clean about these lame practices.
I'll take the other side of that argument. It's an interesting article! But it doesn't make me think that the numbers are "rigged," just that they have been misinterpreted. Semiconductors are getting way better, and have been for a few decades, and that counts as an awesome productivity improvement in manufacturing. If you just look at the top-line number, it says "manufacturing is getting more productive," which in an aggregate sense is still true! But it seems a lot of people though that meant "manufacturing is getting more productive because we have a lot of robots" even though manufacturing employment is declining, rather than "manufacturing is getting more productive because our semiconductor fabs are awesome and the rest of the sector is bleeding out." Which is what it actually meant.

The "US manufacturing is super productive" narrative is unfortunate, especially if policymakers were making decisions based on it. But it doesn't really call into question the data or methodology, just that people have misinterpreted it. But the people who are actual experts in this area are writing papers about that! This paper is from 2014[1], and she's been writing about this since 2010! With economists from the Federal Reserve system, no less.

edit: I guess my point is, the point that article makes isn't, "the game is rigged, inflation is made up, we should use shells for currency." The point it makes is, "don't just read the top-line number and then write an opinion article, make sure you read the breakdown first."

Also, assets do hedge inflation. Most of them, anyway. I never argued otherwise. Just that asset price increases are not the same thing as inflation.

Awesome, (well, not about forgetting the password :/ I've been there, done that) Sounds like you had the .001 btc too.

Now days it's a Satoshi or something like .0000000001 btc.
The question is what happens when 50% of volume disappears. Tether currently has about as much volume as the other 9 of the top 10 cryptocurrencies have combined, and is the top trading pair for BTC, ETH and many others. You dont have to hold any to be exposed to a huge downside risk.
You requested from scratch, but also look into "metacompilation", which was typically how it was done.
Simple? They are operating fully driverless. They don’t need a driver with hands on the wheel like Tesla. In that, you’re right that it’s not the same thing at all. What Tesla is doing is nothing more than glorified driver assistance.
Why would it be fraud? I paid for the service when I used it, if the business makes it impossible to cancel a subscription or makes you go through endless hoops to waste your time, that's on them. After I stop paying for it, they'll just stop providing me the service.

If you signed a contract for X amount of months, then I get it, you have to pay, but I always do month to month at the gym, they still make it impossible to cancel.
If you click on the dots, you'll see that the day ahead power prices are ~$900/MWh. It's extremely high.
> How should government fund basic vs. moonshot research? Incentives. If they think they are smart enough to allocate funds via a committee, they need to be smart enough to figure out how to structure incentives.

I can't find the reference right now, but fairly recently there was a report on the declining ROI of NSF (or possibly NIH) research grants, in that the bias toward proposals that seem likely to produce results was foreclosing high risk high reward proposals, while the funded proposals don't actually fulfill the expectations of the selection committee (in part because what was really being selected for was the ability to write a convincing proposal).

Committees just aren't all that good at their job of picking research proposals (or researchers) that are likely to produce results that advance our knowledge.

Several proposed remedies were examined, but the one that seemed best able to overcome the issue was reserving a tranche of funding for proposals randomly selected from a pool (said pool only excluding the very worst proposals that don't meet basic eligibility requirements).
This will vary greatly depending on how loaded your particular cablemodem segment is, how the channel bonding is set up, how enthusiastic your neighbors are about downloading things like 65GB torrents of 2160p60 movies. If there is an 8.8.8.8 anycast node somewhere in your city, and you are kinda close to downtown, less than 1.5ms of that could be the fiber path from your ISP to their peering with google and back, and 10.5ms of it or so would be accounted for by the cablemodem part.
Direct pay may be so-so, but indirect pay is stellar. Look at how most everyone in Congress & Senate become significantly richer during their tenure, how frequently bureaucrats get hired as high level management in the industries they were overseeing, etc
This is excellent info thank you!
As Izkata mentions, the superproject has _all_ the files for a given commit without any need for users to have access other repos, additional submodule init commands, etc.

Basically, after a subrepo clone, you've copied the file tree for the subrepo and can make commits on it in the superproject to your heart's content (branching, etc). This is basically a fork/mirror, but adds a single metadata file to track the last upstream commit you pushed/pulled from to allow reconciling later. So with git subrepo, you make commits in the superproject first and can choose (at some later point, if at all) to merge with the subrepo upstream. This is arguably consistent with the git model writ large (make local commits, later choose if/how to integrate those with upstream). Importantly, people that clone your superproject repo don't have to know anything about subrepo or special commands to send changes back to you.

For submodules, changes flow in the other direction. If you want to make a change to the child repo, you must 1) commit in the submodule, 2) push the submodule commit to its upstream, 3) make a commit in the super project that changes the commit the submodule is pointing to. When someone pulls, switches branches, etc in the superproject, they need to do a submodule update with various failure modes or else they end up with empty/out-of-date content.

Subtrees are a bit similar to subrepos, but in practice you still need to be aware of their boundaries since you can't mix subtree/superproject modifications in the same commit. Moreover, you need to use a special merge strategy rather than git default merge/rebase which subrepo uses.
FB took the right decision. I wish Google and others will do the same. Like many others have said, I don't like some things that Google and Facebook does, but for this, I believe FB took the right decision. The bill is so vague, and it can be interpreted to say anything that the Government wants it to say. This isn't to protect journalism, it's a backdoor to funnel money to Newscorp.

Yes, I think this kind of behaviour invites what (some) Scots people continue to do, regarding Margaret Thatcher. Which is actually, to celebrate their death.

I celebrated Albert Speer's death. Nothing said by any historian subsequent to the trial(s) makes me think he truly accepted what he had done, and what he helped happen.

I celebrated Pinochet, and Franco dying. I wish they'd died sooner.

Because of the ZA truth and reconciliation process, I have markedly more charity for the white south african political leaders who helped do something truly impressive: A flawed, but none the less important process for grieving families to learn what really happened.

A lot of people in my political sphere struggle with Mugabe who, like Rush was fiercly anti-gay, as well as a complete savage monster. Nobody much mourns Idi Amin.

Yet we let Tony Blair parade his wit and wisdom, who allowed a completely corrupted process to determine his nations role in a very un-just war, and we tolerate his attorney-general Goldsmith, who equivocated on it with bad advice. Strange. Blair should be in prison.
Whats one satellite bandwidth? If a sat flies over a city with, say, 100k subscribers, and 10% is watching 4k video on Netflix? There gonna be limits, right?
It's all culture war. Wind turbines are sissy energy, diesel is manly energy.
