Seems like not finishing college is holding you back. I concur with some of the other comments about joining the military to help pay your way through college, unless there is a pre-existing condition that may disqualify you. Becoming a sensor specialist, a weapons specialist, an engineer or a doctor with the military will pay high dividends. You will remain employable most of your working life.

I can't see why not. A government could require exchanges to prevent (or even just delay or tax) the sale of Bitcoins that originate from miners that cannot be shown to have used renewable energy to produce the block. The government could, for example, physically inspect the mining rig, certify it as renewable-powered, and require that the miner uses a particular keypair to sign their blocks in order to identify them as "green." Exchanges use this (government-issued) keypair to determine which Bitcoins are "green," and apply whatever restrictions are necessary on those that are not.

I agree with your conclusion, but I think the forward refs issue is more annoying than you're giving it credit (not that the fix should break stuff). Type hints happen at a higher level, so things are more strict.

class A:
def x(self) -> B: # doesn't work
return B() # works
class B:
pass

I find this annoying enough that I've been using the future annotations.

That article raises a lot of good points, and I agree San Francisco's housing problem is more with zoning than rent control, but there's definitely some spin and assumptions.

The idea that rent control doesn't reduce available housing stock sounds true enough in the sense that people enjoying rent controls are less likely to move, and they count just as much as a new resident that might have displaced them, but from the perspective of the new resident the available supply is definitely suppressed and thus the price forced up for all non-rent-controlled apartments.

The other one is the unequivocal statement that long-term tenancy is better for the fabric of a neighborhood. In principal I agree with that, but I've known a lot of people in SF that would like to move but can't simply because they are priced out of the current market rate rentals. In these cases, it's not clear whether the benefit of having a controlled rent is worth the inability to move, especially if overall market rates could still be within reach sans rent control.

This is one of the few energy consumers that has a pretty straightforward solution: switch to proof of stake. You can't magically switch all existing cars to be 100% electric, but you actually can kind of magically switch all cryptocurrencies to consume orders of magnitude less energy.

The question is if Bitcoin will ever try to switch to it. Unfortunately, it seems like they probably won't anytime soon.

I would say durable rather than luxurious. The breaks were, but I'd say the tires weren't. I am yet to experience something like this on my v8f. There are other advantages of larger motors, like ability to ride uphill at larger inclines. Scooters are easily overpowered there and essentially useless in more hilly places. Bottom line is, that I am yet to meet a person who tried an EUC and prefers a scooter.
Trying for like an hour to set it up, but it keeps failing on cloning repository. That is definitely not a good first impression, specially because the message doesn't say anything, just 'internal error', so it's impossible to debug and try to fix.

I had the same thing. 18k available on digikey. I even still had the browser window open, and the next day 0 available. I found arrow had 26 and everyone else zero. I managed to get enough for testing but will have to redesign now, but how to redesign for a chip I know will be available. I guess I need to buy a reel before designing. This sucks tbh
It goes back to what you mean by "perverse". For me it's "business reaping the benefits but passing the costs to someone else". For you it seems to be "pollution being generated but nothing 'useful' is being done". Is that an accurate characterization?

You'd have to figure out the balance between distance from the sun impacting power generation and distance from Earth impacting the reward interval.

> A coding camp is the opposite of hustling

Right on. I'm self taught before bootcamps were a thing. I learned by doing by launching a bunch of startup prototypes. Then I ran out of money so I started interviewing, went 1 for 1 and got a good 6 figure Rails job at a big corporation (skipping junior level), all with less than 1 year experience.

Many people getting into coding I talk to think this path is too hard and that a bootcamp somehow looks good on a resume and is therefore safe.

The same arguments can be made for startup accelerators. You really don't need one if you're a hustler who can build businesses. Thus they also attract some percentage of people who want a "safe" approach for their resume.
Also not OP, but I use Vive Cosmos.

I'm very happy with it and haven't experienced the tracking issues others complain about.

At work I've previously tried some of the early oculus dev versions, the original Vive, and the PSVR. The Cosmos was the first which felt like a really great product and not just tech with potential if it were a bit better.

Fascinating take on NPD. But it’s my understanding that narcissism is actually the hardest disorder to cure, as its very nature is to be in denial that anything needs to change — it’s the rest of the world that needs to change.
Git does use transactions, in a pretty clever way: the main storage is immutable -- so when you do a new commit, it creates all new files, and as a last step, updates HEAD/branch, using "rename" call which is atomic on all filesystems.

So you can do pretty bad things to git and it would still work. Atomic snapshots are absolutely no problem. Copying the directory while in progress is fine.

If you try very hard, you can still make a bad backup -- say you were copying files from remote host, and backup got interrupted after HEAD but before the new data. In this case, there is reflog -- append-only file which keeps HEAD history. Using this file, you would be able to manually recover into previous state.
Again, utter nonsense. This is human psychology reacting to a market, and nothing to do with the control of capital.

In a centralised capital control economy such as communism it is well documented that there was hoarding as well, communism never removed the human component no matter how much they tried.

Centralised planning fails utterly as the complexities of the supply systems are way beyond are current abilities to project. And fully planned economies have well documented failures anyway so your comment about this being a problem of capitalist systems is fully disingenuous; or maybe they were just not socialist enough, right?.

What we had here in this instance for semiconductors was a confluence of factors that I doubt anyone would have planned for. Also I feel much of it is sensationalized. We are talking super high end consumer electronics for the most part. The leading few nodes of production are mostly Apple for example and the further back in the production node you go the more players and capacity is available.
Its not BTC miners fault that energy is priced incorrectly. We shouldnt waste any energy into powering the armies of the world, lets just not fight, right? But here we are.
For many years the county wide intranets were faster than any connection they had to the internet. Some of the business around town had crazy fast speeds between sites but the internet was still slow. I think once the DCs moved in, that all changed.
The solution to this is to tweak rent control. For example, introducing sticky prices and incentivizing leases to end in the same week can do wonders to help people move affordably.

I don't see that from the perspective of a new resident it must necessarily be worse with than without rent control. The scenario that would make the difference in overall supply would be if the old resident had to move out against their will, and obviously that's what we're trying to avoid.

You really do have to incentivize some construction, though. Getting the ball rolling by buying some unzoned land and building good quality public housing on it can also be good.
Tech Companies in general.

What I have seen happen in the last year is the following:

1. Covid forced most people to work remotely, at least at tech companies.
2. The world didn't end for those companies, so now many more are amenable to remote workers.
3. Even the ones who aren't happy can't really force everyone to come back to the office, so they're still remote friendly.

I don't know how long this situation will last, but for now it's a good time to be a remote worker.
Here's the problem with this sentiment. Bitcoin isn't replacing anything. Not pre-existing fiat currency, not banks, nothing. Bitcoin only adds to the problem at an alarming rate.

Bitcoin is certainly not a scapegoat. It's a massive problem and, largely, a symptom of human greed that must be put in check.
It's tech that only benefits Google.
Easy solution: tax carbon emissions.

Who cares if you’re using energy to mine Bitcoin? Or if you’re using it to play video games? Or to run the AC all day?

If it you’re internalizing the cost of any emissions, then you’ll use those resources efficiently.
Especially in this case, getting a degree would got a long way towards demonstrating dedication and maturity, and could even make up for earlier job hopping and quitting school.
>The calculus IMO is power consumption * grid-wide average CO2 emissions.

This is also too simplified, because it doesn't factor in transmission costs and interconnection capacity. Electricty doesn't move frictionlessly throughout the grid, and this can be seen because north american electricity prices vary wildly by region[1].

If paying high cellular, internet & home prices is a sign of “developed” world. Yes
The foundational economic concept is risk and volatility mitigation, and it's found everywhere from home insurance to leasing private jets. Real estate is just another asset.

Ownership means responsibilities. Renting is great for those who want to minimize those responsibilities with the associated overhead and surprises, and lease terms vary wildly with some being as short as a few weeks.

Arbitrary comparisons don't really challenge anything about the fact that renting and buying are just different financial operations that you can tailor to your specific situation. There's no right answer.
The Greenidge team told potential investors last month that the plant had mined 1,186 bitcoins at an average net cost of about $2,869 for the 12 months ending in February. At this week’s Bitcoin price, that would translate into a profit margin of about $60,000 per mined coin.

Surely this cannot last. This kind of outsize profit ought to be bringing online enough new mining capacity to increase the block difficulty until that margin erodes away - is it the worldwide chip shortage preventing that from happening?
The downside of embedded system is it eventually turns into enterprise hardware. A RPi is just a small cheap PC now.

> wonder if you have delusions of grandeur around your abilities which is creating a miss-match of expectation leading you to quit jobs you need to tough it out in.

Not a doctor either, but I would agree with this. OP seems to have a disconnect between what reality and the old days of the first bubble where if you could spell programmer, you got a job as one.

It doesn't work like that anymore, OP. Too much competition, too many people with more experience, skill, and education than you. You need to put in the work and rid yourself of any notion that you are entitled to a dev job.

And it's probably my naiveté, but I tend to think the social awkwardness/spectrum issues aren't as strong as people here are saying. This is engineering. There's always been a higher percentage of people on the spectrum than in other fields. At any given job, I'd say about 1/3 of my coworkers are somewhere on the spectrum. I haven't been a job where people who simply have awkward communication skills aren't offered. Now, if they do come across as an arrogant dick, spectrum or not, that's an entirely different issue.
I'm not fighting here. Your comment came off as dismissive to some growing and legitimate concerns.

And don't forget. Bitcoin is not replacing these other institutions that need energy. Stop handwaving away the problem, because it's inconvenient for you to hear.

In addition to needing a better ratio of data to assumptions, the conversation on rent stabilization needs to accept that all laws on not created equally. While it may be easy to show that extremely aggressive rent control measures in hyper-competitive markets can cause problems, there are a lot of alternative approaches that allows for the influence of market forces and provide a sense of stability to working families that are deeply invested in the communities they live in.
> But there's literally no reason you can't just come out and say, "I wasn't getting benefits, and I need benefits." Honesty works there.

The problem is that (a) you should have noticed the lack of benefits before you accepted the job, and (b) it doesn't make any sense to quit due to lack of benefits without another job lined up that does provide benefits.
the verbosity complainers have no idea. they're just way off base. writing some jax-rs or what not is so compact, so simple, so easy. I can't begin to understand these complaints given the get started cost of any alternative, all the js frameworks, elm, swift, whatever. java's magic annotation systems are wonderful & concise.
What about all the other maintenance costs? Have you paid nothing else other than your mortgage and tax for those 10 years?
Another use of async is to build other kinds of servers like websockets, which need to hold long-term connections. ReactPHP + Ratchet works great for that in PHP. Currently it works with an event loop (multiple implementations under the hood, like libev, libuv, etc) similarly to Node. Fibers should make the internals of ReactPHP better, but it'll barely change anything in userland.
I mentioned C as a language of choice. Cool kids are picking node js and esoteric Closure, not C

I've used the preview release, and my experience with ARM containers has been good - even seems a little more stable than the Intel one.

But I only did a x86 Linux container as a test, and it wasn't a great experience. Seemed visibly slower and crashed once.

So whether or not this suits your needs, I feel, depends on to what degree you need the "contract" that your local environment is the same as prod, because you're probably using x86 Linux/BSD boxes.
Holy shit, it gives you near-IR and visual spectra every ~60 hours. This is amazing. I feel like a spy in a late cold-war novel.

So how do I know if a function will return a list or a string? Will it be "get_things_list" ? Or maybe 'get_things', it's got an s, so therefor it's many things? Or at least an iterable thing? Or maybe an object that contains some values? If there are many things can I index into it, or just iterate over it? If I have to guess, will that force me to use a List over an Iterable, even if that's the wrong abstraction?

At some point you have to convey the type or I have no idea wtf you're giving me, and I'd rather have you convey the type in a way my computer can understand than have you convey it through the godawful way that people name things.

That people manage to do so is no endorsement. Humans managed for quite a while without antiseptic but I don't hear anyone endorsing going around with shit on their hands.

Honestly, I've been programming in both typed and untyped languages for ages and it I am asking how you manage this problem, because I find IDEs radically less effective in dynamically typed languages, I find that I have to ask more questions, do more manual work, etc. In typed languages these things become trivial.
