If they did what you propose do you think it would incentivise or disincentivise companies on the future to produce medicines in that country?

It seems clear to me that a company would move out if they spent millions+ researching a vaccine only to have the government nationalize (i.e. steal) the patent. Good for regular citizens in the short term, but seriously damaging in the long term.

Exactly. If there were an Anthrax outbreak in Ft. Detrick, MD, everyone would be immediately assuming the lab was involved. Wuhan is the Ft. Detrick of Coronaviruses.
Feels like you fired the first shot by calling your site "better-<their-domain-here>".
The difference between Amazon and Chinese manufacturers is also that Amazon controls the search listing, it controls which reviews are allowed to be present on its platform and in many cases, can influence when and how a competitor product is shipped to the customer.
Mostly agree, although I do still think it's solvable in theory, e.g. if chat platforms had strong incentives to implement the same popular feature sets (for example, think of how many websites implement various optional HTML features such as metadata tags, since it helps them on social media, chat applications, search engine results, and so on).
I believe that was at least one war going on somewhere in the world pretty much continuously since WW2.
It's not nihilistic, it's more absurdist. I think, for myself, it is in fact a better way to live life. Sure, I admire people with a life-long drive be it Musk or Michael Jordan (or even some ancient conquerors who clearly did it for lulz and not ideology), but I personally only feel driven for short, narrow projects at most. And the impression that I get is that this is already above median ;)
I use Teams for education.
I spend a lot of time spelunking through online resources. Unlike file browsers or browsers where you can open documents in new windows or tabs, Teams can only do one thing at a time. The back button is not predictable.
Together this makes it several steps behind poking through a public ftp server.
That may be a perk of having had an aristocratic ruling class, the first industrial revolution, and global empire (not being sarcastic- I'm a big Hidden Houses of Wales fan, would love to renovate an old castle). The UK was historically wealthy and has amazing old houses. In the US every decade has had significantly better housing stock with increasing standards of living, so its much less appealing to get an older house in 95% of the country. Especially anything 40s - 70s you get smallish rooms, low ceilings and questionable "vintage" building practices like I'm dealing with now (aluminum wiring, poor insulation, etc).
We used Discord at work for team chat for about a month before upper management found out and dictated that everyone use Teams because it's free as part of Office 365.

Discord worked so well for everyone on different platforms and Teams has got so many problems.
I was not aware of the name for the principal-agent problem, thank you for that. I do wonder though if it's just ample rewards. I believe the most efficient mode to let others do your biddings is by threatening harsh backlash on refusals to cooperate, and providing ample rewards on cooperation, this to make the incentive even bigger. So perhaps you can also add to it that WHO leaders will face strong backlash by _not_ corrupting the institution.

Wasn't this discovered to be due to contaminated vape fluid, not anything contagious?
It is a visible input field styled not to look like an input field until that radio button is selected, but it is not "hidden" in the HTML sense. It is not a shortcoming of the product's design to not have parsed the CSS and intuited that Substack's designers wanted to cleverly make it not look like an input field.
Exactly, the human body actually became the limitation.
And all these remind me of Ace Combat 7 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ace_Combat_7:_Skies_Unknown)
I don't think this is right at all. I would be surprised if Alfred Winslow Jones or Warren Buffet (who were some of the earliest "hedge fund" managers) were significantly influenced by Bachelier's ideas. Buffet is famously neither especially quantitative in his investment style nor a believer in EMH.

Financial "technology" pretty seldom actually originates in academia. It's more common that academics formally describe or justify something that market practitioners are already doing. The piece briefly mentions Bachelier doing this. There's good evidence that option prices were (relatively) efficient several decades before Black-Scholes was discovered. And Jones arguably came up with the notion of "beta" before CAPM was a thing. The only real exception I can think of is factor investing.

This might seem kind of petty. But the notion that academia drives (or should drive) finance is not a benign myth. The LTCM crisis and the 2008 GFC were arguably caused by the uncritical application of ideas developed in the academy. I expect more.

Note how the language is pretty smart about flow-typing variables as you narrow down their types. `x` here is typed as a tagged union (String | Int32 | Array(Char) | Float64 | UInt32), but by the time the program gets to the final `else` the compiler has figured out that the String and Array cases have already been dealt with (even though we never mentioned Array by name, just asked if the object implements a method that only Array implements), so it lets us call `x.abs`, which only works for numeric types. Of course, `abs` has different implementations for Int32 and Float64, but the signatures are compatible so the compiler lets it fly, resorting to dynamic dispatch at runtime.

The missing part is that there's nothing like a CAN_SAFELY_BECOME_A operator so I had to implement that test myself (as `try_to_u32`) and call it early to get the flow typing to work.

The Wikipedia article for the concept is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow-sensitive_typing
Same here, I've never heard the phrase "DuPont connector" until this article (I would also call them 0.1" pin headers). But I thought it still had a nice exploration of the history of that terminology and the connector in general.

>and a tangible consensus amongst those who are not blind as to whether an object can be called blue or not.

>The latter is missing from the problem of consciousness, which makes it a far more difficult and fascinating problem.

You are talking about whether some topic can be observed. The example you cite is observation through sight. A blind person cannot observe color. Observation is the key to gathering evidence. The words an "observation" and a piece of "evidence" refer to the exact same concept. Thus your statement is equivalent to saying Blind men can only gain knowledge about color through evidence and that consciousness lacks any sort of evidence.

Many things in this world lack evidence including Scientology and Creationism. We classify some of these things as absurd. Other things are classified as religion or something that is not absurd.

In my mind the logic is equivalent. The vast number of possibilities of the unknown renders most unobserved theories to be by probability more likely to be absurd. Thus Christianity is just as absurd as Scientology. However extraneous factors influence Christianity to be perceived differently even though logically the foundations come from the same absurd unobservable arguments.

Consciousness I believe is much of the same thing. A linguistic phenomenon lending weight to what is otherwise absurd by default. It is just a complicated category where the capability of being able to have certain thoughts is classified as conscious. Or should I say the ability to be aware of certain things? I'm not sure? Fascinating yes but if you look carefully at what I was actually fascinated about you'll see that I'm just talking about how to define a word. Is "consciousnesses" awareness or thought? A definition of a word is not profound.

The profoundness you feel is again just a linguistic illusion. It's similar to the question: "What does it mean to be American?" American is purely a made up word and basically just a over complicated category with nothing intrinsically interesting about it outside of American culture.

To sum it all up. A recursive definition and lack of evidence renders the whole quest to discover what consciousness is quite uninteresting.
I have always wondered if institutional timings depend on clock(eg: office open at 7AM), and countries want to change the timings, why not change the timings directly at local level((office open at 8 AM in winters), instead of changing clock at national level?
If the videos are accessible through a public non-signed URL then the owner of that website is an idiot.

Now regarding whether what you are doing is legal or not, I think it depends entirely of how you’re retrieving those URLs and if they can really be interpreted as being “public”. Are you “figuring out” the urls or are they simply there hidden in their front-end source?

In any case, he is the owner of the videos so he definitely has a legal ground to claim that what you’re doing goes against his copyrights, mostly because you’re facilitating some circumvention of whatever he has in place to keep them invisible to non-paid users.

I think what would be totally fair game is for you to put the source code in GitHub and let anyone run a version of your React App but INAL, so don’t take my word on it.

In any case, the owner should be more worried about to protecting his videos through a proper authentication system and not so much about the one guy who wrote a wrapper around his crappy website.

Just to be clear, I believe the owner is totally in his right to protect his creative work in any way he deems appropriate. I’m just baffled by the idea that his first instinct isn’t to fix the root cause of the issue.
I am not a lawyer... but if I was, I would put forward a case that you created this site specifically to help people access content they had not paid for. I would give examples of many other sites that rely on URL obfuscation to protect content and show that you are circumventing the protections that have been put in place by the content owner. I would also say that because you published this site on the internet with its own similarly-spelled domain name, that you fully intended for this site to be publicly accessible and be used by many other paying and non-paying customers.

So yeah, in my opinion what you're doing is definitely immoral, but whether it's illegal or not doesn't really matter, because you just need them to have a reasonable case to force you into expensive court proceedings. If this site is just for your convenience, why publish it publicly anyway?
>It was basically impossible to lose money, no matter what you invested in

It's always possible to lose money. One obvious way was to say "I'm not panicking, there's no reason to panic" as the market crashed and capitulate right as it hit bottom, and spend the rest of the year saying "why is the market going up, it makes no sense, the world is ending".

It's easy to second guess yourself. Suppose you were entirely invested in biotechnology for several years prior to covid. Surely that is a good position to be in. After over a year, in retrospect, it is. But in the initial selloff, biotech crashed with everything else. Psychologically, how do you react? Do you say to yourself, everybody (the market) is wrong? Or are you conditioned to think the market knows better than almost any individual. The market was wrong as it turned out. I mean, covid treatment and vaccines are not gold mines for the private sector in themselves, thank god, but the pandemic is obviously driving and will continue to drive a realization of how important biotechnology is in general.

>their standard 2% of assets/20% of profits annual fee structure is absurd

I wonder when that became the "standard". Before I heard of the term "hedge fund", I heard of people charging 1% and 10%. Like in the early 80s.

A joke I heard (not sure if apocryphal) was someone naive asked "if you charge 10% of the profits, does that mean you give back 10% of the losses?" The answer: "Oh, no, that would be unprofessional"

> that is what hedge funds are designed for. In an era where you can buy pretty much any security for free with a few clicks, their standard 2% of assets/20% of profits annual fee structure is absurd

I don't understand, you seem to imply that any decent hedge fund makes obscene amounts of money, but if they did, then high fees would not be absurd - problem is, they mostly don't.
Of course, market is natural phenomenon. Every process with pressure, suction and or differences of potential is trying to achieve equilibrium. Electricity, hydraulics, they all manifest the same principles. Except that in nature, it's driven by pure physics. With people, you need to understand value and it's more generic. One step more generic from physics, is cybernetics. And market is a cybernetic system with difference of energies trying to achieve equilibrium.
Are you braindamaged?
Yes, I'd also like to work in a collaborative setting about 15 hours a week, contributing to a project or research. One thing holding me back, though, is I just can't stomach the idea of some capitalist stealing the fruits of my labor for themselves! I know, extremely hypocritical, as I've benefitted tremendously from capitalism, and continue to do so. That said, I'd be happy to give up my wealth, as long as all rich people had to, and we magically found some stable equilibrium where it stayed that way and society could still function.

I did get into open source work, for a while, contributing to improving the software I used the most. Unfortunately, that mainly resulted in work on Chrome and vscode, and other pieces of software owned by giant, richer-then-god corporations, so the same frustrations applied :p
I knew a couple who had such awful credit they were not allowed to rent without paying the entire year's rent up front.

> Superior armament, training, and tactics make a huge difference.

The Republican Guard was absurdly outmatched.

Re: training... arguably, the encounter occurred in the way it did due to (then) Captain McMaster's aggressive advancement leading to the necessity of ignoring regimental orders not to become decisively engaged.

What made the decisive difference was technology, specifically, infrared sighting and laser range-finders available to and used only by one side.
Amazing how almost all the commenters in every HN post about NFTs completely miss this aspect of art collecting and complain that "it's not art" or "it's pointless". With these NFTs, it's all about flipping them for a profit which will buy them whatever status they want.

Just take a look at the transaction history of any NFT going around on OpenSea. Here's an example of an NFT selling for 30ETH (~$50,000) just three days after it was bought for 1ETH (~$1690). Not affiliated with CyberKongz.

It's not just that the closest known virus is a bat virus. The closest known virus, RaTG13 was discovered in a cave in Yunnan, and brought to Wuhan by WIV researchers where it was sequenced, and probably other experiments done on it. WIV has also changed its story twice about the history of RaTG13, first, the date of first sequencing (They initially claimed 2020, and then changed their story to 2018), and second, they did not disclose for months that it was in fact the same virus as BtCoV/4991, which they had previously published a partial sequence of.

Transportation by lab personnel is the only way that RaTG13 is known to have come to Wuhan. Any animal transport is possible but only speculative. This entirely flips what should be the assumed scenario vis a vis Occam's razor.

I doubt a million is going to make a dent in it. Content marketers are automatically generating this stuff, and Google has billions of users, many of which will occasionally invent a novel query.

It depends on the reader. I, for example, always value, when I learn something new. No matter if it supports or questions my current views.

The issue with some Substack authors is they fall into Productivity Bullshit Industrial Complex (https://99u.adobe.com/articles/55974/the-creative-worlds-bul...) cathegory which is not very novel for anyone, who have read a few pieces in this space.
In practice, it is. You can turn GC off with a compiler flag, but then the standard library will leak all over the place, so it's probably a bad idea unless you're doing something very specialized.

I think the word "correlation" is the more important one.

Lack of correlation can be very valuable even if the returns are mediocre to poor.

I don't remember or understand how it works, but I think I read once about how a fund manager claimed to be able to take more risk with the "long" part of a portfolio because of the uncorrelated "short" part, even though the returns of it were unimpressive.
