Never had anything given to me by any connection in my family. Heck, my family dosen't even have any connections I could profit off if I wanted to.

Now, it does annoy me having had to jump-backwards through the modern interviews for tech position and now there are people like the author who get handed the same kind of jobs solely based on the genitalia the were born with and still complains about it.

So save your dollar store philosophy and stop making judgments about my reasons.
I've never been robbed for cash. I have had my bank account emptied multiple times though, recently too.

When I hand cash over to someone, I know how much is leaving and coming back right then and there. When I fill out a payment form with my card details I'm handing over my entire balance into the ether. I could be sleeping and quietly money is leaving my bank account, which happened. So cash is king still.

Plus it's generational. If I said walkman's are the best I would guess you have a different response, more digital based I imagine.
Agree -- settlement still occurs every day. And credit cards charge %, versus network fees in crypto are amount agnostic (ie: 1 million transfer vs 1 dollar transfer cost the same)

That post is describing a dichotomy between far-right and centrist politics. How exactly is that not a massive right-wing bias?
Yeah but good luck convincing people to move next to sources of energy so cheap it would be wasted otherwise (rural west texas, rural china). If bitcoin becomes the dominant global financial system, securing it will be a worthy use of energy.

First you said "Just because Bill Gates is a billionaire, doesn't mean he knows what he's talking about"

Now that you've learned that most likely he DOES know what he's talking about, you changed your argument to "Other people think other things, so it's uninteresting" (What? WE're not talking about random people here.)

Lets just say it: you already arrived at the conclusion you want, now you're grasping for arguments to support it.
Awesome! You are welcome!
Not mentioned, not cited in the paper. That's shocking.

Edit: the word "tail" appears nowhere in the paper, in any context. I'm beyond shocked now.
Flutter applications start insanely slowly. I only tried it once and a tiny, one-screen app with barely any interactivity took like 2.5 seconds to load on a Snapdragon 845 phone.
thanks a lot for the interest.

As I mentioned in the main post we had an Instagram that over the years we build up to 37,000 followers, with more than 200 post (all unique content from us). The handle was: @mammothhunters

Then we committed the mistake of using a service to check who was more influential among our users (this can be done manually, so no private info breached) that flagged us as a bot.

Instagram first blocked our account.

There's been no way to get in touch with them to recover the account.

Finally we got a "tip" from an insider that the account was permanently deleted (we never got this message through the official channels).

So we've lost 3 years of work.

We started a new account 1 week ago (@mammoth.hunters) we've managed to recover 2,500 followers but we are far far far from where we were.

The worse is that this was not only a show off channel. It was the main driver for one of our products that brings over 100k a year in revenues.

Anybody has a tip on how to recover the old account?

Thanks a lot!
Why would they do that when not spending any resources, time and money on having such scenes is more profitable as it doesn't appear to be hurting their viewership numbers?
I wish the title had not been edited from its original: "Everyone is Beautiful and No One is Horny." It captures so much better the essence of this rambling incomprehensible thesis that action movies have many beautiful people not having any sex. Alternate title: "Everyone drives cars in cities and no one is seen parking." To use his example, Starship Trooper is an action movie with satirical subtext, it is not served by having more horny people bang. Every narrative has to be edited to GET TO THE POINT. And then he leans on this faulty premise to criticize a bunch of weirdly unrelated stuff, movies made after the 90s, the cluttered interiors, McMansions, swoles, BMIs and 9/11. What?

There's plenty of beautiful naked people having sex on screen, uncomfortably many. Where has this writer been? The Tudors, anachronistic boobs and asses and fornicating beautiful people since 2007. This formula was so successful it's repeated in Games of Thrones, the trope so commonly employed it earned the moniker of "sexposition", naked people banging + dialogue = sex + exposition. It's also repeated in Versailles, Outlander, and from what I've seen of ep.1 Bridgerton. There's also plenty of beautiful people having sex, or at least demonstrating their horny-ness in RomComs, Sleeping With Other People comes to mind. Somehow I don't think the author was the audience for any of the above. He's complaining that there's not enough horny people in the movies he is watching.
Unsolicited advertising for Taleb’s newest book is really not constructive or helpful, and betrays that you don’t actually know very much about statistics.

The culture of "Promotion-oriented development" is a dismay across this industry. My take is that the prospect of getting promoted to Principal/Staff SE is close to none if you are not aiming for a moon-shot project. Naturally, people tend to just invent "just-another-moonshot" project for the sake of getting a promotion instead of thinking about the long-term implication of such decision.
Flirting is the skill of determining if someone is attracted to you, then indicating your attraction to them and communicating that back and forth in a playful manner. Because of that, of course being attractive is required for flirting.

However, that doesn't mean that you must be handsome. There's a lot more to attractiveness than just appearance.
The author makes one mention of New York Times, the target of his confusion, but only in the very last sentence. Maybe he's the bad writer?

Cherry-picking ten bad sentences from tens of thousands written per day seems like a long-tail metric or anecdotal at best.
“Missing cues” at such an early stage is more diplomatic than perceiving them and phrasing some sort of rejection.
William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer, according to my journalism class.
The cause of most problems for any biological creature on earth is external. All animals compete fiercely for survival among the elements, among other creatures, among each other. Survival is the biggest problem for all animals.

Except humans. More humans die each year due to other humans, or due to things other humans have created (for example humans ignoring mask mandates).

Point is, we are the only specie who has become its own worst enemy.

Idk, what am I saying? I think we can improve eachother's lives quite a bit if we just kick out the assholes from power.
You're right that we should probably ignore San Francisco and a few others to portray the typical American experience.

But it's still not obvious why for example Atlanta (22.6x) has almost double the price-to-rent ratio of Milwaukee (12.4x) if not due to speculation. Those both seem like fairly "typical America" cities to me. Would you expect Rent in Atlanta to spike heavily in the coming years? Or is the distinction you're making more about urban vs. suburban? (Since my link is just a mediocre blog, it's not clear if those numbers refer to city or metro area.)
Ironically, persistently trying to communicate in a way that the other party doesn't understand is exactly the kind of counterproductive behavior that this article talks about.
wait why is it different in work-life balance
Since we’re getting more into pedagogy here... I think this falls into the category of learning the rules so you know which ones to break. Several years ago, I was helping an underachieving high school student write a persuasive essay and she was helplessly lost. She didn’t know what the five-paragraph format was (intro, discussion point 1, discussion point 2, discussion point 3, conclusion). Without that, this was just a complete failure of an essay, or maybe an assignment never completed.

If she had learned and practiced the 5th grade style that you learned, this persuasive essay in high school would have been a piece of cake. She’d be able to structure her thinking and communicate a point.
Not knowing how to flirt is the main reason behind "involuntary singlehood"*

Hmmm.

Resources left on the board are: One Arduino I/O pin (the TX one), one unused relay. That could be used for one of the six channels to decrease the load resistance slightly by splicing in a parallel load resistor. By measuring the voltage drop from momentarily increasing the load, the ESR could be computed, at least roughly, for that one battery position.
Other than literal precious metal coins - everything else is a share of existing or future value - it's a credit to acquire material possessions.

Take an example of burning $100 bill. You aren't destroying more than the piece of paper, because the destroyed value is instantly shared between every other unit of currency.

The possibility of not getting robbed because you have $4000 cash on the till is a damn killer feature. Sure, this would just lead to an evolution in methodology. but for now its worth it.
I live near San Fran and I paid over $4/gallon for regular gas. That’s the same price I paid when gas was at all time highs. I know that a lot of it is taxes but the BLS must be taking that into consideration, no?

Also electricity is at all time highs, depending on the tier and time of day I’m paying 0.50/kWh. During the pandemic this has been killing me. I can’t believe that energy prices are low at least around here.

You can flirt at other times but you need other people to be clearly interested in that behavior (I mean, that’s true at all times but let’s be real about context). For most people commenting here on HN, I don’t think they know when that time is or maybe the nuances of flirting that are safe.
> Some states have multiple ancestors, some have none

Yeah, this is what I didn't understand about that particular Kaggle competition. It doesn't seem possible that you could learn some general set of rules that would allow you to predict previous states with much accuracy.
He's right, defending the CPI calculation is almost criminal. Many people on fixed incomes that are adjusted based on the CPI are negatively affected. This bogus formula will be conveniently altered to stay under 2% if inflation creeps into the basket of goods being calculated.
East/West HVDC certainly has the potential to multiply the utility of solar installations and cut down a lot of the need for storage. Of course you may still have issues when you reach ocean borders, but there's a good chunk of the northern hemisphere where it looks like a great fit.
> Monetary policy isn’t the only or even the primary driver of inflation.

After two degrees in economics, my perception is that monetary policy is definitely considered a primary driver of inflation, probably THE primary driver. But this is probably irrelevant - see below.

> In this case, the inflation comes from increases demand on a portion of the food supply chain (shipping services).

Yes, for example: "in North America... a shortage of both shipping containers and truck drivers".

> The alarmism in the comment section largely comes from people misreading the headline.

To me, it feels alarmist for Bloomberg to consistently say "inflation" instead of "price increases" throughout the article. A temporary problem with supply/demand is not the same as inflation. Food prices will almost certainly fall back to their normal trajectory within a year or two, once supply/demand normalizes, whereas if there was truly inflation that would almost certainly NOT occur.

Are you questioning that it’s a masterpiece or why it should be taught in schools?

For the latter it’s because issues students deal with in school directly parallel those in the story.

The mempool is transactions that haven't been included. That is not the place to look.

The average bitcoin transaction is $13.72 USD. Two weeks ago it was $31 USD. The median is now $6.31 USD.

Looking at transactions that are not going to make it in does not mean anything. This person actually looked at the real information. You are making a guess based on something irrelevant.

> I don't know for sure, but I guess there are also some methods for opening more than one channel at once, reducing substantially the cost of opening channels when there is coordination (which could be built by a wallet app). Not entirely sure of that, though. But exciting times ahead.

What are you basing that on? Transactions are priced by the bytes they take up. Larger transactions cost more.

Because this was well known to statisticians long before Taleb talked about it?

That would be my suspicion as to why it isn't there.
I've long held the conviction that tourism is a toxic sector. If it grows too large a share of GDP, so much talent, money, and effort is sucked into tourism and away from society which otherwise would have found better use for it.

Who builds the next startup, starts a franchise chain or scouts investors to build a new machine, if you can always double your salary by serving rich foreigners?
It happens in the US too. 1br rents are like $2000 in LA. 3 bedroom 1500sqft starter homes are north of $1.5m even in the worst neighborhoods in the city. If you ask why rents and housing is so high, it's due to a a lack of political will to increase supply. It seems backward until you realize the majority of voters in local elections are homeowners, the council members in charge of unilateraly approving or disallowing development in their district are homeowners, and the lawmakers at the state level are also homeowners, all of which have a vested interest in achieving exponential gains on their assets.

I can't help but imagine how different this state would be if the governor of California came from a rental apartment, or from living in their car, and not the latest approved candidate from the old California political machine (Governor Gavin Newsom is a respected SF judge's son, Mayor Eric Garcetti's father was the LA DA for 20 years). Maybe political priorities would actually shift to the working poor rather than the landowning elite for the first time ever in California.
That sounds deafening noisy, was it really like poster paper?
I run a small photography business. A few years ago Facebook deleted a few fb events we had created with a few hundred attendees each. They never gave any reason for the deletion or any warning. Like you, we hit our heads against the support-brick-wall for a while. I estimated damages around £10k and filed a small claim against them.

I used the EU small claims procedure which allowed me to sue FB Ireland from the UK, where I live. You must sue FB Ireland, I tried suing fb uk first and that was a lengthy and stressful mistake. I'm not sure what you will be able to do from the US if that is where you are based.

Long story short they settled the matter out of court. I never got an explanation as to why the events were deleted.

File a small claim, anyone can do it, it'll get their attention and they will probably pay you damages rather than argue the what and the why of your case.
Thus automated test time + automated test maintenance is usually less than manual test time + manual test maintenance. Mostly because execution time for automated tests is so much shorter than manual execution time that the higher cost of automated test maintenance is recouped and then some.

The only way for framework\OS changes to impact that is if they happen often enough to make automated test maintenance "weigh" more than all the time saved by no longer having to manually run your test suite.
They're a far right activist group according to the leftists who write that definition, yes. It's all so tiring, it's straight out of 1984. Isn't it interesting that you'll never once ever read the phrase "far left activist group"? Why does it only go one way?
I feel your comment only supports the points in the article.

I would say that YouTube, GMail, and Google Maps are all direct funnels into the Adsense machine.

Android, Chrome, and Chromebooks see success only as instruments to have infrastructure to more efficiently push users to use the Google products to direct data into the Adsense machine.

Any Google product that does not sufficiently funnel user data into the Adsense machine is canned. GCP exists as a covinient way to make some side money on their existing infrastructure.

I think only Waymo is the true outlier in this case, but I think that lives as it's own thing, given that's under Alphabet instead of Google proper.
Bastion is a bit different. I liked the music and art a lot, but the story was kinda basic (despite the great delivery), and the gameplay was just "satisfactory" imo. In Hades, gameplay itself takes the prime spot, despite the rest of the aspects being also great. With Hades, you can enjoy the game even if you don't care about the storytelling or art at all. With Bastion, that would be a really questionable proposition to play it just for gameplay.

My advice for Hades is to give it about 2-3 hours of try, and then decide if you want to play more. Mostly because it takes about an hour or two until the game gives you all the essentials before releasing you into the world where you can play it "for real". Sort of like a less extreme version of Red Dead Redemption 2, which requires you playing 10+ hours to finally to be able to play it "for real" (referring to having to get to chapter 2 or so, before you can free roam and enjoy sidequests and start doing things at your own pace).

> Many economists, mind you, believe CPI doesn't correct quite enough, and suspect that it overstates the inflation it hopes to measure by around 1%. This is because it tracks the actual prices of a certain "market basket" of goods with specific products in it, and that basket gets out of date, as people substitute products.

These substitutions are tricky, if hypothetically a consumer can move from eating fresh local produce to preserved canned produce then it's likely they will make the switch under price pressure when fresh produce increases in cost by 2x. You could calculate CPI based on the new realized purchasing patterns - or you could calculate it based on the desired purchasing pattern.

Basing CPI on realized purchasing behavior will lead to errors in how inflation is perceived or where consumers are trading quality for cost. From a monetary policy perspective ignoring this consumer tradeoff could lead to sudden shifts in CPI when consumers run out of quality substitutions.

I'd argue we've seen this in housing in the major cities where first home prices were excluded for rental equivalent, then rental quality fell in both the amount of space available in a unit as well as the overall quality of the unit. Eventually you hit the wall where quality can't be traded off any longer and you're left with many people who can't legally house themselves.
Thanks for the feedback! I was also embarrassed that there are so many ideas that combine Spaced Repetition with a note-taking tool.

In any case, to explain your question, in the tree structure used by this app, a leaf is a card (so it's not about memorizing a nested list).
Like this:
Fruit>
Apples>
Taste: Sweet

And in the process of making the user memorizing, this app shows cards in clusters according to their position in the tree and the predicted rating and that's the point.

You would be correct.

Preagricultural peoples exerted reproductive control so they were not vulnerable kind of population crunches that affect other species.

With all the angst in the West, concerning this, a lot of the Eastern traditions of arranged marriages seem interesting. Sure they can be abused, but the skills to attract a partner in single hood are different from the skills to build a happy marriage.

I think arranged marriages has some advantages in that it removes the ambiguity. You don’t have to guess if someone is interested in romance or just a friendship. You know from the outset, you are pursuing marriage. In addition, the things that are attractive in that system, such as good habits, stable job, etc are likely more conducive to successful marriage over ability to flirt.
