Thinking this through, as a rational economic actor.

You won't save cash in a bank, it's literally better to put it in a safe.

You won't buy a productive asset, that'll just lose value as more people buy the same asset - lowering the value of the goods it produces.

Which pretty much leaves assets that are inelastic to demand e.g. housing, stocks, art, unique jewelry etc.
I hope someone will make a Podman Desktop installer. On mac it would setup a small VM and Podman remote CLI on the Mac. On Windows it would setup a small WSL2 distro. The problem with Podman is that it currently has a lot of bugs when not running on Fedora/RHEL or similar. And there is no free fedora distro available for WSL that I’m aware of.
Salesforce is partly good example because they also do security review on your API and infra. It’s also bad example because they only do it on first release.
I will never understand this logic. It doesn't matter how friendly someone is if they can't code, but even if someone is difficult to work with (as many smart computer programmers are) they can still be hugely important to a team's success. Obviously there are limits to both of these, but technical ability is the requirement and "being fun to work with" is the nice-to-have. I think highly socialized people tend to complain about non-social people much more than the reverse.
It's important to keep things fact based and be very specific about the behavior you want corrected. I would get things in writing as well so that you have email to back you up in case things go south.

The situation you are describing is, unfortunately, not a male/female issue. It is a pattern for a certain type of low performer.

p.s., You might think about why you use the word "girl" as opposed to "woman" BTW. That's a touchy point for a lot of women, as it diminishes their seniority. It may or may not be relevant to the conversations you describe. This is not intended as criticism; I know nothing of the situation beyond what you wrote.
I am convinced, by many real world observations, that the average joe user cannot distinguish fake html/css/js popups from OS popups.
Dark patterns aren't fundamentally new, they've just recently taken on a new form in software. An example of an old dark pattern was that a company would simply mail people unsolicited merchandise, and then bill them an inflated price for it if it wasn't returned. In that case, the (US) law was changed to specify that any such unsolicited shipment is presumed to be a gift and the sender is not entitled to payment for it.

The FTC has been dealing with this kind of crap for over a century. The key is that this is in the context of advertising and trade practices, not viewpoint or artistic style. You'll still be able to include fictional dark patterns in your post-cyberpunk visual novel if you want to.
You really don’t think that happens? Try even a cursory google search. Come on.

One more piece of this is they endlessly mutate, I don't think in reality there is a limit. Most mutations probably don't help the virus proliferate, might cause it to not be effective. Eventually the shape of a new one, what your body is looking for in it's remembered virus history will change enough that it can't be detected. We see this in real time with the cv19 variants. My mental model of this (I am in software so I welcome corrections to the applicability) is it's like antivirus in software - the bad guys making viruses keep trying new variations on old ones, switching what the protection software is looking for so they can get around detection methods, as well as trying to find new holes.
There’s no armchair philosophy here, nor the defeated apathy you seem to be responding to.

GP posted a ridiculous, condescending, one-sentence solution to the issue of sustainable eating. I used hyperbole to try and highlight how out of touch they are.

The whole point is that the problem is, in fact, hard.
A lot of banks explicitly prohibit storing currency that is still in circulation in their safety deposit boxes.
Basing an argument on hot pockets feels weak.
Basic problem: How do you target this?

Advanced problem: how do you avoid accidentally killing someone while targeting this?

You're just talking about shooting "at" someone's head, you're talking about positioning their head in 3D space and shooting so precisely (through potentially layers of brick, metal brick ties, lath etc.) that you hit only inside their head and don't leave any marks or burns on the skin.

We don't have the technology to reliably do this today at range.
When we had someone in for an interview, I'd often circle back and ask the office admin (that also covered reception) what she thought of them. It was pretty informative and eliminated a few candidates.

I've seen someone give the advice of responding to crude sexist "jokes" by asking them to explain it then explain the explanation. Just keep insisting that you don't get it and don't understand why it's funny and see how deep you can get them to dig before they get it.

It seems like with HIV they can simply sequence the prevalent evolutionary outcome in your body within a month and give your body the blueprint to destroy that version

What typically happens with HIV is that the body kills most of it initially, but the remaining ones keep rapidly evolving until an iteration evades your immune response, this takes about 12 years. Seems like an mRNA vaccine could be done every 3 years for individuals and either completely eradicate the HIV presence in the body or do it once every 12 years for a reset

Let me know if I fundamentally misunderstand something
Ah that’s right... totally forgot
I am transgender and I feel similarly about the language that has been adopted by our community in recent years. The difference is that the terminology seems to have originated from the trans community itself. But there are many modern correct terms that I don't feel comfortable using for myself but if I don't use them I am instantly seen as regressive. It's even so bad that one of the terms I used to enjoy casually calling myself among friends is now regarded as an outright slur and saying it is akin to cursing in a problematic manner. And yet it's something that I used to enjoy saying with no ill intent or bad feelings whatsoever. It's a sad situation. When I use the socially correct terms I feel as though I'm being forced to speak a certain way and it doesn't feel empowering, in fact it makes me feel vulnerable in a way that I don't necessarily want to be with every stranger that I come across.
again, what specifically would the US be trying to justify with such a false narrative around rew's? Not seeing the cost/benefit.
Understood.

I believe that, as a software developer, I am constantly encountering the classic "Do $20,000 worth of work for me for free." If I refuse, it can sometimes get quite unpleasant.

As it so happens, I actually do a great deal of free software. The users can sometimes be a bit on the "knucklehead" side, but they usually respect my boundaries.

The people that don't, tend to be business owners. I sort of expect it, as a good business owner is always looking for every advantage they can. I can sometimes get rather peeved by their attitudes. Around these parts, business owners tend to be especially aggressive, and NY is known for a hyper-aggressive environment and culture.

The people that wrote the app do a valuable service. They trained up a fairly effective neural network. The apps are...OK. Not outstanding, but OK. They do get their primary function done pretty effectively. That took time and skill.

They want to be paid, and I don't begrudge them. I believe that supporting paid software is a moral imperative for me. I won't go about laying my values on other people, but I choose to have this attitude, and I like to follow it with action.

It is very volatile yes, and over twelve years this volatility has returned a 3x on investment on average, every year. Conversely, for someone deciding between the two, holding fiat has been equally as volatile, and returned a ~66% loss each year by comparison.

People looking for extreme safety might want to at least put a tiny bit into Bitcoin or some other crypto. Certainly, they'd be significantly "safer" now had they done so at any point over the past decade.
>But she doesn't want the ad monetization money stolen from her by a fraudulent claim.

she's making $0 now regardless. May as well do a small jab in spite of it by promoting other places. More likely she'd probably just stop hosting videos and switch to a different format, like private tutoring.
Problem is that all banks have this.. so you either suck it up, or put your money in many banks to keep below the threshold, but that becomes difficult to manage..
The alternative is investing them which is probably okay if you know you won't need funds immediately available, but since everything points to the next financial crisis, it'd probably be better to wait a bit with investments..
This sounds like the Cats vs Zio drama. Most of it revolves arround 'we don't like JDG'
That makes sense. I knew you could generate wood for fuel in this manner. I think I got my wires crossed and thought I was replying to a comment that suggested it was a form of lumber production. Lumber in my mind, and according to Wikipedia because I had to double check myself, is wood that can be milled into boards, which I couldn't imagine being produced from a pollarded tree.
I don't understand how the bank incurs an expense by accepting a deposit? Is the bank required by some government regulation to do something expensive with the money?

Or is the "expense" just that the bank's profit would decrease when interest rates on loans go down but those on deposits stay put?
Something I have started doing is decoupling functionality from my phone. For example, I bought a cheap 4GB mp3 player a couple months ago. I bought a standalone alarm clock too. Basically I have tried to reduce the number of things I use my phone for. This means I no longer even have my phone with me a lot of the time.

The other change I have made is keeping my phone on silent by default and blocking notifications for almost everything.
No. A cheaper product may be more durable due to less complexity.
They're a fashion company, which happens to produce hardware and software. A bit like Riot Games is an art company which happens to produce League of Legends (like Valve / TF2 and hats/collectibles before them).
Everyone who bought Bitcoin 2 weeks ago has already experienced far greater negative losses than any Danish bank customer will over the next year. Danes can buy US government bonds quite easily if they want risk-free positive yields.

It's categorically false to say intel agencies (or the slight "these people") never deal in truth. That is not how misinfo/disinfo works. Additionally, intel agencies play an integral role in providing truthful and accurate products, for govt and industry partners.
Everyone seems pretty excited to tell me that you aren’t buying the item with an NFT but the reason I suggested it is because one of the reasons they cite is sentimental value. The NFT would generate value (you own the NFT of a Bob Ross painting, maybe an entire episode) without the folks who care about the painting itself losing the sentiment, and who would buy the “second” NFT of something anyway?

I wasn’t being snide or cracking a joke about NFTs, though I think that’s how I was interpreted.
Is it harder compared to how hard it is for most people to get a job?

For many people it is a pretty horrible experience.

Sounds like that would apply to anyone who works in a small company / start ups...
> We’ll be importing corn in my lifetime.

Want to bet on whether the US will become a net corn importer?
Yep, public IPs. I’m sure people do that, or use VPC peering if they want to use private IPs.

Expensive. VPC peering serves a different purpose, but pricing is the same.
Whether Salesforce intended it or not, the platform has moved far beyond just Sales. In the multitude of cloud products currently available, almost all of them use the Contact object as something other than a lead. So I guess from my point of view, a Lead can always be a Contact that is captured/not, but a Contact may not necessarily be a "lead", in the traditional sense of word anyways.

Given that Salesforce is the only CRM I know in my fairly young career, I can definitely see many of its shortcomings and do not envy the engineers/product managers that have to address those.

I think if someone is starting a company, Salesforce is not the right option, both because it is extremely expensive, and its not exactly plug and play if you're looking for customizations.
Just raise the price of the burgers... its not that hard. If everyone raises wages at once then they’ll also raise their prices at once.

And the people you’re hiring won’t have to live off the dollar menu at fast food restaurants anymore.
They were a thing in Kenya and Tanzania and Zimbabwe too, at least 10 years ago. And super delicious. A couple times, our driver stopped by a tree on the side of the road and we just picked a few and ate them right then and there as a snack.
I don't know why you are being downvoted. Mexican Cartels are alive, and prospering.

They have their money in many farms. It's a great way to launder money.
Thing is that safety deposit boxes are rarely insured for as much money, and they do also cost something..
Another problem is that since our economy is almost entirely digital, you can't actually withdraw or deposit large amounts of cash without significant problems with paperwork and fees.
You're going to have a bad time trying to buy a new car, house or even high-end TV with cash here :D
"Note to the 1-bit people" is an odd redirect given Linus is known for his 1-bit opinions.
Bitcoin is exactly the insurance policy you want on the possibility of fiat collapse.

Also please point me in the direction of these "better-return" bonds.
Sheesh, those are costly. $35 usd is more than two weeks worth of groceries, two months of a world of Warcraft subscription, and about the same price as any of Affinity's products. For the AirTag, I'd admit that it seems sophisticated enough to warrant it. But the loop to affix it!?
I was responding to this section:

> VMs are usually overlooked as an alternative to "docker images",
When everyone wants to get the money out, they won’t be able too. There are limits on how much cash you can take out and those limits can be decreased.
Some vendors can not get even the simple SNMP right and will send OIDs in wrong order in WALK, causing a standard-observing SNMP client to prematurely end a subtree walk or to loop forever.

And the SNMP is mostly read-only, usually only basic functions can be controlled (such as interface enable/disa le) but more complex configuration can be only read (vlans, firewall rules, etc.)

So really the SNMP support in datasheet means nothing.
Also not an economist, but topics like this always remind me of the Impossible Trinity and how different countries solve for different pairs of policies out of the three available choices

Wow. Guess I need to try again.
Yes, the whole point of these ultra-low interest rates is to increase spending.
Except it’s those on minimum wage that spend most or all of their paycheck stimulating the economy.

>He did get into that, that sometimes it's smart to outsource, the example was the fuse on the toaster.

The counterexamples I was looking for were companies that didn't fit his thesis instead of a small part like a fuse being outsourced.

The author Bert Hubert keeps emphasizing "making" in addition to the thinking. So a design(thinking) company like NVIDIA doesn't seem to follow his ideal of how an "innovative" company is structured. And another counterexample like Apple in the 1970s used to in-house assemble computers and box them for shipping. That was all outsourced decades ago to China and yet Apple got more innovative with the 2007 iPhone.
But they should have been.
I listen to a lot of retrogaming and retrocomputing podcasts, ANTIC and Retronauts are my favorites.

It turns out ANTIC interviews quite a few people from the old computer magazine and book industry, and retronauts is mostly made up of struggling video game journalists who cycle between the same magazines and being jobless or freelance. A few of them, especially the more senior folks basically have thrown in the towel and now work for other companies entirely within the video games industry.

What's really interesting about the ANTIC interviews is how close those folks were to the thing that basically displaced them (computers and ubiquitous networking), and yet none of them seems to have predicted it happening. To them the publishing and periodical industries had always been there and always will be. Their own employer going out of business was more due to local market forces affecting them or mergers between companies.

For the record, it didn't occur to me either. In the mid 90s I was sitting next to an incoming T-1 line at a startup ISP sending off physical envelopes with job applications to gaming and computer magazines I enjoyed hoping to become a journalist myself. One of the magazines that did reply (by mail btw) went out of business itself about 6 years later.
A trained guitarist's ear might notice the difference, but I highly doubt a crow would care. Also you are overstating the difference, and by no means is your opinion uncontested (just putting this out for the non-guitarists in the HN crowd). Even for those who can identify and prefer the tube sounds, digital modellers like Kemper do exist and do exist and seem to do a fine job in blind tests (see for example Anderton's on youtube).
thanks for the correction!
> Considering that PCA also complicates things from a model interpretability point of view

This is a strange comment since my primary usages of PCA/SVD is as a first step in understanding latent factors which are driving the data. Latent factors typically involve all of the important things that anyone running a business or deciding policy care about: customer engagement, patient well being, employee hapiness, etc all represent latent factors.

If you have ever wanted to perform data analysis and gain some exciting insight into explaining user behavior, PCA/SVD will get you there pretty quickly. It is one of the most powerful tools in my arsenal when I'm working on a project that requires interoperability.

The "loadings" in PC and the V matrix in SVD both contain information about how the original feature space correlates with the new projection. This can easily show thing things like "User's who do X,Y and NOT Z are more likely to purchase".

Likewise in LSA (Latent Semantic Analysis/indexing) on a Term-Frequency matrix you will get a first pass at semantic embedding. You'll notice, for example, that "dog" and "cat" will project onto the new space in a common PC which can be used to interpret "pets".

> I've never seen it result in a more accurate model. I could see it potentially being useful in situations where you're forced to use a linear/logistic model

PCA/SVD are a linear transformation of the data and shouldn't give you any performance increase on a linear model. However they can be very helpful in transforming extremely high dimensional, sparse vectors into lower dimensional, dense representations. This can provide a lot of storage/performance benefits.

> NNs, etc. are all able to tease out pretty complicated relationships among features on their own.

PCA is literally identical to an autoencoder minimizing the MSE with no non-linear layers. It is a very good first step towards understanding what your NN will eventually do. After all, all NNs perform a non-linear matrix transformation so that your final vector space is ultimately linearly separable.
Some german banks do it also.
“Information Superhighway.” I have not read those words for a long time.

Maybe we should have changed it in some point to ”Disinformation superhighway.”
As a rational actor, all returns are the same when adjusted for risk, so you continue to stick your emergency savings in the bank, and diversify your less immediate investments. As a real investor you're probably just going to flee domestic investments in favour of the returns of the S&P500.

Of course not, bsaul was making his own point with the facts presented by the author. The characterization of the candidate's choice of words as "being a jerk" is not a fact. Clearly he was making a joke.

Compared to more modern tools Jira is actually not very flexible.

For me the most flexible and useful tools are Kanbanize[0] and Kaiten[1].

Both companies are engaged in furthering the Kanban method which also means they care about having a lot of features for displaying cards, limiting work in progress, defining workflows and have solutions for working together on bigger workflows with several teams.

I use both professionally.

A lot of other solutions have assumptions built in which really limit flexibility. One example in Jira is the coupling between workflow status and columns on boards.

I suppose it depends on the speaker, but I wouldn't generally describe the examples I've seen as "a pretty good job". Seems to me there's a long way to go...
Are you a self aware product manager?
I think this is exactly what companies should be striving for. I can't say how many do strive for it, of course.
Agreed.

But when someone posts a one-sentence solution to a difficult problem, and frames it in the most condescending manner possible (eg “It’s not hard.”), it’s difficult not to respond with a low-effort (and very real) counterexample.

I’m curious what the “unsilenced” (???) conversation would continue to look like in your opinion- seems to me like the “not hard” comment of the original response implied not much conversation was left to be had.

I think the point here is that users don't have much option, not the hosts. If the DMV uploads instructional videos to Youtube, it's hard to boycott google if you want a license.

Meanwhile, I don't think the State govt.is going to care much about convoluted processes against takedowns. That's just Tuesday for them, they aren't gonna fight google on this despite technically having the resources.
