Most millionaires opt for stealth wealth. Their friends don’t know, their coworkers don’t know, their extended family doesn’t know. In a few cases, not even their children know! Wealth is accumulated through habits; at least in a free society like ours. At the moment, something like 1 out of 25 households falls into the millionaire category, most of it self-made.

From the comments:

Your right in Jack MacDonald's case too, he didn't make his initial money from stocks, his wealth was inherited which was then invested, he didn't spend any of it because he thought of himself as the steward of the inherited wealth

"His wealth was inherited from his parents, who owned MacDonald Meat Co. in Seattle, and he sought to boost the funds by investing their money"

"Wealth is accumulated through habits" is a great story to tell people but it seems very often to be complete BS.
But it also makes the threat of economic sanctions in response to an invasion more credible, because the US and its allies in such an effort would have alternative sources of critical components.

CCS is winning, so unlike Europe the US and Canadian governments don't really have to pick a physical standard.

What they need to do is mandate clearly displayed charging rates and open payment methods like credit card swipe and contactless. Using the interstate commerce clause to allow EV chargers to sell power by the kWh would also be a big win since that is highly inconsistent.

They should also consider mandating open access to charging infrastructure if the charging company accepts any public money. I own a tesla largely due to the charging network and I think they should be allowed to use their own money to build whatever closed garden they want, but quite often they are getting sweetheart deals on space to put their chargers in exchange for adding some j1772 or CCS at the same time. If they want to build an exclusive network it needs to be with exclusive money. If they accept public money or exchange of favours they should be forced to allow other vehicles to charge and sell access at a reasonable rate.

> Many of the laws of the old testament were for the jews living at that moment of human history

But those laws were given by a god who is all-knowing and all-powerful, so either

(1) said god was totally chill with slavery, which means its moral code is suspect

or

(2) that god was not all-powerful, and had to cede some morality to the dictates of the surrounding societies

or

(3) that god doesn't exist at all, and people just made up laws that fit their time.

> Is there any reason why it isn't more popular?

There are a few; if you head over to comp.lang.ada you can find threads on the issue by people who were involved at the time. As I understand it though there are four or five points:

1. Ada was designed and specified completely before any implementations were extant, it used then bleeding-edge theory and integrated several big concepts/features: this lead to the very first 'implementations' being either incomplete or pretty bad performance-wise.

2. The backlash among DoD contractor's programmers; "Don't tell us what language to use!"

3. The rise of C's popularity; I believe this had massive consequences, ultimately setting back the field of computer science by decades. [Take a look at Multics, VMS, and the Burroughs... then realize how many of their features have been added to 'popular' OSes in the last 10–15 years.]

4. Misunderstanding the compiler's mindset: a lot of programmers take the view that they need to "shut the compiler up" rather than as the compiler helping them out by finding problems.

5. Misunderstanding "mandatory checks" — a lot of programmers are used to C & decedent's "simple" nature and really don't understand how things can be leveraged. A good example here is the sequence F(F(F(X))); if F takes Natural and returns Natural, then there is only one check that is needed for this sequence: N on the innermost call... and if X is defined as natural, even that check can be optimized away.

> domain experts using models to validate hypotheses trump p-value fishers without that domain knowledge every time

This basically says that people who have one subset of the required skills are better than people who have none of them. That's obviously true but I'm not sure why it's relevant to use the worst part of a group ("p-value fishers") in that comparison. The more interesting question is whether skills in statistics, applied math and computer science carry over across different domains - and I think the answer is that they clearly do.
No, when starting debugging you most often know the results of a bug. You can break conditionally on when the results appear, then work your way up the stack or jump to the beginning of a block to re-examine it. Or you can rerun the program, this time with a breakpoint set based on the inspection of the environment when the bug happened.

In pdb not only can you set breakpoints with conditions[1], you can also assign commands to be executed when the breakpoint is reached[2]. You can also use `display` command to - effectively - insert temporary `print`s in any stack frame[3]. Coupled with `up`, `down`, and `jump` commands, and the ability to evaluate any code in the scope of a break, it really gives you a lot of options on how to find the problem.

Though, logging is still a good thing. When I see a commented out `print` in code review, I usually suggest to replace it with a DEBUG level logger call. Extensive logging does help to trace the execution, it can be disabled when not needed, and can improve the readability of the code. Although raw print is an antipattern (can't easily enable some and disable other, need to clean up after debugging, doesn't display the stack trace, etc.), logging is a valid technique which complements the usage of a debugger nicely.

Maybe C++ fixed type safety, but it introduced lot of complexity and bugs for no actual added value. For instance, because of stateful ios objects, it's close to impossible to write correct code outputing hex on first attempt. I'm sure that lot of C++ code outputing hex is just plain wrong.

Given that C++ keeps getting more and more complex features, it is just amazing that C++ I/O is still so inconvenient, opaque and ultra-verbose.
The new MS Flight Simulator uses Bing Maps imagery so I originally thought the satellite map happened to include the ship and thus the game would've had it as well, at least in "flat" form as a terrain texture.

People are always allergic to something. I was allergic to a particular flavor of an artificial beverage in the 80's called CapriSun, but it may have been in combination with immune exposure to pollen, dirt, flu, seasonal cold, soap, laundry detergent, or any other random substance. I broke-out in hives.

My aunt has readily-lethal anaphylactic reactions to dozens of foods and other substances.

One could do a pretty good job of it too. AIS data contains position, heading, and speed. So it's everything you need to interpolate movement between data updates.

The US consumes 50% of chip supply while only making 10% of the chips. American leadership on both isles have decided that access to chips is a national security issue.

If you're TSMC or Samsung you probably had a conversation with US officials along the lines of: Build fabs in the US, or we will tariff and tax our way back to a mostly domestic, American owned industry. 60% of TSMC's sales are to the US customers. There's not much of a choice there.

Indeed. Also, tools like grepmail make big mailboxes easy and fast to search through.
It's also a lot easier to make music in your bedroom and release it online pseudonymously.

Learning an instrument, getting in a room with (most likely) strangers, and creating something opens you up to a lot of vulnerability. It's not easy so it makes sense people would choose the easier, safer options.

I think there's so much to gain (both musically and otherwise) from the more difficult option though, it's sad fewer people are choosing it.

So the difference is that there is no central authority that can just print more crypto. It's decentralised which means you don't need a bank, bank card or ATMs, you can store your crypto on a piece of paper. So the big guys can own a lot of crypto or a lot of dollars, with crypto there are no banks for them to control and no government to print out new notes.
We already use land mines, which are automated weapons. The US is one of the few countries not to sign on to the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty, and its self-imposed restrictions were lifted a year ago. As far as I know they haven't been restored yet.

Yes, they each have different fiber cables. They all share the same poles owned by the power company.
The problem with 'misdemeanors' is they sound innocent enough when you take the plea, but we have a family member who got an undeserved misdemeanor back when he was 18 and after applying to job after job, no one will hire him because he simply has a misdemeanor. Even things like doordash or instacart - they told him no because he had a misdemeanor.

Talking to the lawyer and all they said is to try to get a pardon in 10 years. So for 10 years because he was told a misdemeanor is nothing 'big' he won't be able to work unless he gets a job from a family friend or something. Then he can pay a lawyer to get a possible pardon? The system doesn't care about people like him.
I think they meant if there is a difference between attending the online conference while it is happening vs. watching the videos afterwards.
Well the last paragraph is (I think) due to medicines approach if you do not have evidence you claim it is not happening (or you say 'there is no evidence...'). And sometimes this just means there was no data.

This article from 2019 might provide some clues: https://www.chron.com/business/texas-inc/article/Getty-Image...

It seems that one of Getty's biggest problems is that the variety of fresh imagery their customers expect Getty to have to hand has shot up while revenues have grown more modestly. Maybe Unsplash's library and base of contributors will actually provide some value in the long tail for their existing customers.. and it might be possible for them to offer that extended library to customers with existing packages without them really caring where it came from or that they could get it cheaper elsewhere.

This is almost inevitable. The current situation is designed for humans. The boxes generally hold together; the number that fail either structurally (deformed) or catastrophically (contents destroyed) is probably within some tolerance. Deformed boxes cost basically nothing with humans.

These robots appear to have a gentler touch than what I'm guessing humans do, based on the health of the cardboard I receive from humans. They might make it feasible to create re-usable plastic boxes that have some kind of an anchor point.

I've got a friend that works in the field and have seen their machines in operation and how they work on their contracts. The use cases right now seem to be entirely human defined; i.e. it handles items that weren't modified to make it easier on the robot, and it handles items in a random orientation. Could be turned, could be upside down, could be balanced on a corner against another item.

If robots take over more of the pipeline, you can start guaranteeing that boxes are oriented correctly, which gives you a lot more practical options than "cover it in hooks, and we'll worry about how to stack it later". Space in containers is also a big concern, so anything that increases the size of a good is generally bad (last-mile delivery excepted).
It's pretty clear to me that SpaceX has no comprehensive model of how their craft works, or a clear testing methodology; they're just throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks. They're going to be finding unfortunate surprises in the "Starship" until the day it is taken out of service. It reminds me of how the Space Shuttle was designed. Hope is not a strategy.
If a patch is in an email then how do you know which parent commit it should be applied to? A patch is not a thing in its own right in isolation; it should come with a specified parent thus identifying a unique code context in which it is correct. Just because it applies cleanly on a branch does not mean it is correct there.
