If you need more complex cleanup, that doesn't work as well... but (a) hopefully you can avoid that cleanup and just use a plain "|| die", and (b) if you need cleanup, hopefully you can put that into one function (possibly "die" itself) and have its cleanup work no matter where it's called from, and still run everything as "|| cleanup_and_die" or whatever you'd call it.

MMT[0] is relatively new in our lives, I find it hard to understand myself, let alone try to explain it.

> Say the US government issues a bond, some bank buys it, and eventually they sell it to the Federal Reserve. The US government has the same debt, and it seems to me that the only thing that has changed is that the bank now has cash where before it had a bond.

This is mischaracterizing the situation. It actually is: 1. A bank buys a newly issued bond; 2. The government spends that bond money on the private sector. 3. The Fed buys the bond by changing the values in its database (i.e. "printing money").

The best I can do to explain MMT is this:

1. The government spends as much as it wants and collects as much debt as it wants.

2. The government plays a game of chicken with the private sector (including other countries).

2.1. As long as everyone plays along, its a ponzi scheme that spirals upwards until it hits a ceiling (hyper inflation).

3. Meanwhile, until it hits the ceiling, it creates "manageable inflation" and/or deflates the rest of the world's assets.

3.1. As long as the rest of the world plays along (which it does), the extra cash funds innovation (i.e. the private sector) and improves quality of life world wide (i.e. better pharmaceuticals, cheaper computing, etc).

3.2. Meanwhile, in the US the "manageable inflation" is paid for by the poorest.

My personal thought: the world's interconnected market is so complex, that no one understands cause and effect (including the people making the rules). Currently, there is an emergent property of that complexity that the US, Japan, etc can "print infinite money" and some large group of people somewhere are left holding the bag worse-off for the US' decision, but no one really knows who this group is nor how much those people got fucked. Even the impacted individuals don't realize they are impacted because individually its a small impact, and innovation keeps improving their lives enough to not complain.

Hopefully a denationalized crypto (i.e. no ability for a single nation to print money) will help us simplify all of this to be understandable again.

That's probably great for bolognese or tartare (to name a couple of random examples), but use that for a burger and it would be horribly dry (unless you cooked it rare/medium rare)

Although I'm sure it's possible to make a plant based burger that doesn't need 20% fat by tweaking other stuff that you can't change with ground beef. (I've had potato/sweet potato patties that were great and basically fat free, but obviously not much like actual meat)
Proponents of nuclear power labelling everyone who does not unequivocally support it "science deniers" is such infuriating populism.

Nuclear power obviously has immense benefits, but there are also undeniable risks associated with it. It's entirely possible to be in favor or against it while considering the exact same scientific facts depending on which of these you consider more important, no "scientific denialism" required.

I also don't see how nuclear power is supposed to be related to the economic left/right spectrum.
Are there files somewhere for a 3D printable case for it? Such as something you could do on a $300 consumer-grade printer capable of ABS filament printing?
The trade off is not pasture to forest. Pastureland for most of the world is on arid land too dry to support forests, such as the American West. Before we raised cattle on it, it was tall grassland where Bison grazed. Similarly most forms of cattle culture arose in arid climates that could not support water intensive agriculture such as rice. Forests don't do well in arid climates, as California is finding out after decades of mismanagement.

Rent control in crises makes sense. Rent control was applied in WW2 in NYC for example.

Just like rationing is a good response in a crisis, but not in "peacetime".
It’s a tech enabled brokerage but not a tech company. It’s a services company. The technology ingesting a bunch of IDX feeds and making them searchable is decades old functionality that literally every large brokerage in the country has. Redfin is far ahead in the agent technology space and operates far more effectively. If they classify as a technology company then so does every competing brokerage in the space (Keller Williams, Coldwell Banker, etc)

I feel the discussion about rent misses the forest for the trees: most houses are sold, not let out by developers. Price of house is affected by the interest rate much more than it is affected by the rent: i.e. if interest rates fall by half, and rents fall by half, house prices go up.

If you could buy a house with zero percent interest rate, then any rent, no matter how tiny, is building you equity.

Then you have to conisder thay mant houses are bough as 'investment' and many owners literally dont bother renting them out, they just wait for price of the house to go up. This is a serious problem in london

Cars are only an incremental step towards an even more sustainable future. Once we get self-driving electric cars powered by nuclear, solar, wind, fusion - then they'll become pretty green. Self-driving cars will cut down on parking space too because we'll be able to have our cars drop us off and go somewhere out of the way while we shop/eat/whatever.

I'm also not certain how much cars are worse for the environment compared to horses. If we had to sustain similar numbers of people without cars we would have tons of horses (I assume horses emit similar amounts of methane to cows, which I know are a major contributor). We'd also have to feed our hundreds of millions or billions of horses. That agricultural effort would probably have a huge environmental cost. We'd have to deal not only with places to park our horses but also somehow manage the immense amount of waste that would come with packing a few million horses into a city and the accompanying health problems with that.

I think cars are a pretty good invention and wouldn't be surprised if, on net, they were better for the environment.
Have you seen the amount of waste we humans generate? have you seen the landfills?

It depends on whose skill set in most valuable in terms of business growth. The value of each founder depends on company stage.

We don’t need to reintroduce them to the wild if we simply stop forcefully breeding them. At some point they will cease to exist.

Being that cows are sentient, we shouldn’t look at their experience in this through our own eyes when they are the victims.

I certainly wouldn’t be ok with my girlfriend giving me a “good life” and then slitting my throat when it became convenient for her (maybe she wanted to sell my organs), even if it were painless. Sure, I’d no longer exist after that point, but it wouldn’t make it ok.

Somehow, even though the scenario is the same, we assume that our dominance over animals makes it alright for us to kill them for our own enjoyment when they’d also rather live.

Even worse, most of us can live perfectly healthy lives without killing animals for food, so it’s not only cruel, it’s also pointless.
Looks like they are using wgpu, which is the main (only?) implementation of WebGPU. Seems like WebGPU will work because everyone is going to ship the same shim (wgpu) over the top of proprietary APIs.
I think you're saying that,

1. Pigs would do bad things to us if they were different than they actually are (smarter)

2. Therefore pigs aren't very moral

3. It's okay for us to hurt beings that aren't very moral

I don't think any of that is true.

The first problem is you're justifying cruelty to pigs based on a crime they haven't even committed, but you assume they would if they were as advanced as humans.

I can imagine a slave owner in the 1800s using the same type of rationalization. "If black people were smarter and more advanced than us, they'd have made us slaves", he'd say. "They would do it to us, so we do it to them."
Currently the MSFT identity approach uses blockchain as an identity stake and then layer2's the access. The identity stake allows for anyone to verify that the credential is valid and belongs to a real person without everyone involved having to run the entire chain back to that point, with a secondary chain providing a changelog. Since you only need to exist once, this can cost $5 or so without major issue. (We can't use a centralized database for this because people in the US are afraid of the government.) NHS is using it as a cross-region credentialing system, since it's easier for them to accept a blockchain entry than work out all the regulatory nonsense about actually sharing history, or getting their systems to work together securely.
OpenSSL had and has a few core developers from Britain who have made significant contributions to the project. Though there are forks and alternative TLS libraries, most websites in the world probably run on OpenSSL.
Zillow does this at greater scale than Redfin. Coldwell Banker also has an affiliated loan arm of their business (Princeton Capital). The difference is that Redfin is a broker whereas Zillow is not. Zillow has 20x the traffic and reach of Redfin plus the originate mortgages and provide instant offers. Because Redfin and Compass are brokers, they have more legal restrictions on how they offer these services to others that limits their reach

What do Carl and Dan have at risk? It looks like the first two who have 40k of their own money at risk should have the lion's share.

My best guess is 50 35 10 5. Maybe 51 41 4 4. Something in that range.

It could be radically different though is we knew more about what each person had at risk. For example, are any taking less or no salary?
This is so misinformed. Much cattle production is in South America yet you cite only US figures which is less than 10% of headcount.[1] Even the US bison figures you cite predate the massive rise in industrial CO2 emissions, greatly reducing our budget. And you claim “wild life” is declining without sources — commercial cattle still number > 1B worldwide.

> One item worth noting is that the decline in U.S. inventory since 2008 – 3.1 million beef cows – has been met with an opposite expansion in Brazil of almost 4 million beef cows during the same period.

> you can't do #2 without doing #1

Of course you can. The law can be that normally rent control applies, but if you are building a new building, that doubles the amount of housing supply on the land, you can kick out the existing residents if you pay them a large payout.

This would allow new housing to built in the obvious places where it should be, and the obvious cases where a huge amount of new housing is planned to be built.
Not quite a “low price”. A 2 bed HDB costs around $500k SGD. And the median salary is ~10-15% lower than the US.

Way cheaper than a private condo ($1M), but still a significant barrier to many people in Singapore especially since you can’t buy one if you’re single until you’re over 35.

The broker controls commission splits so they have all the control. The problem is that if they don’t offer fantastic commission splits to agents then the agents will go work for another brokerage. At some point, it’s advantageous to work for a different broker because they’ll offer a better commission split and enable them to standout apart from the crowd.

Rent control could technically be done by handing money to tennants to then hand to landlords, but in practice it's done by taking money away from landlords. Obviously, that's going to keep landlords from being able to give that money to construction companies.

Another possible solution would be to take money away from tenants and landlords both to give directly to construction companies. That's socialized housing. However in the long run it's not likely to be much cheaper, because it's not like landlords are making that much profit in the first place. The profit in renting is about the cost of capital, the government is not going to do much better.
It's interesting that you chose C++ as your counter-example. It's a language that has also massively changed over the last 10 years. C++11 and later standards were a huge shift and most people would argue it's a much better language than 10 years ago.

I don't have a horse in this race though. I don't use Javascript or C++ in any meaningful capacity these days.
