So trickle down? Which we’ve tried for decades and hasn’t work? Which Biden just said didn’t work? Problem is rich people hoard and save more money then they ever will spend. Poor people spend ever dime.

Give 10,000,000 to a rich person and they but some property or “invest” it in some hedge fun that makes the world worse. Give 10,000 to 1000 people they spend it. All of it. At local businesses which pay tax. For homes they need. And it eventually ends up in the hands of the rich again anyone because they are so good at extracting wealth at every opportunity

Please trust you are fundamentally wrong. If Congress plainly acts within the authority granted it by the constitution, then the judiciary is strictly bound. Similarly, the judiciary is strictly bound by the constitution. If there is no statutory or constitutional authority, then there is no law to apply, meaning the petitioner has not carried its burden before the court.
Except it isn't an industry standard term unless you mean the marketing industry. And the standard for them is it means whatever we say it means.
The spiffing Brit managed to get 500 people into a single Factorio game, not all visible at the same time but all interacting with the environment. It was an interesting video, the performance was fairly good.
As an aside, the Shelter Institute is amazing (which I'm assuming is the place in Maine you were talking about).
This doesn't really matter though, after a certain point there isn't much difference to players between 50 people and 200 people within visible distance. You can just stop showing others past some cap, or throttle position updates to like 1 every 20 seconds or so and fill in the gaps with AI.
If anyone is curious how Unikernels work and what the dev workflow is like, I had the creator of NanoVMs on my podcast last month at: https://runninginproduction.com/podcast/79-nanovms-let-you-r...

We talked about a mixture of Unikernels in general and how they run their infrastructure.

What's interesting about Nanos is it's POSIX compliant. In other words you don't have to write your app differently to get it to run in their Unikernel.
The thing about this is that people who stop working also die earlier.

There is no such hypothetical book. I've read many of them and collectively don't cover what you'll need to know or do. There's also very few things everyone knows about microservices. Choosing the right bounded contexts is the biggest knowledge gap and most examples talk about noun1 service and noun2 service.

Learning about microservices by reading books that distill it into abstract examples is like learning Haskell by reading about category theory. Maybe possible but challenging and not for everyone.
When I am on the iMessage dialogue screen with a contact, I can usually click on their name, then Info, and it displays all the video/photo attachments sent in that chat. I believe I can then delete them from there. Is that useful? I guess if there's a number of photos you'd like to keep, but not the large videos, it's a more complicated issue.
I would like to dive into it from a high diving board before I swam across it. Yes, to answer your question, I would definitely swim across it.

These comments are responding to my original, which was directed to the US judiciary. I understand the linked article is not, but given the large US readership on HN, discussion of how the US works strikes me as germane.
Your indignation is strange.

Why would you not recommend it when there's no alternative?
My wages have certainly not kept up with houses, land, crypto, or anything scarce really. Those idle assets seem to be capturing all the gains.
It's all fun and games, until you're trying to get a mortgage - then you discover the analysts in your bank don't find such messages amusing.
Here that would take care of your health insurance for 2+ years (basically covering your health care for that time regardless of any misfortune that comes your way), or more than half a year of (University) tuition. In US? Probably not so much. Taking into account other welfare benefits, minimum wages, etc would also be interesting.

All I'm saying is to me it doesn't make sense to just look at that 3k and compare it to all other major countries without context.
There are two very common misconceptions, which are directly in conflict:

- "sign language" is universal

- signed languages directly correspond with the spoken language

Neither is true. the signed language in the United States and the signed language in the UK are not mutually intelligible.

That said, I am pretty comfortable in claiming that two fluent signers of very different signed languages will have a much easier time bridging a communication gap than the corresponding non-signers in the respective communities, especially since Deaf signers who grow up in a hearing world usually develop many skills around gesturing and bridging communication gaps.

Language and culture are very intertwined (stories, jokes, puns, ...) I am grateful there are many languages in the same way I am grateful for many cultures.

The title is a perfect illustration of the disconnect that is the problem. Opposition to third wave feminism is conflated with misogyny and used as a dishonest cudgel with which to browbeat others into either following along with political movements or staying silent. It's a Hallmark of modern progressive causes, with conveniently chosen names which lend naturally to this technique. It is reassuring that the younger generation is not standing for this nonsense.

Progressivism is mainstream now. This is the new counterculture.
> WTF? I'm very often around Russian and other Slav people and many of them smile plenty.

Yes, but this is about smiling at strangers. Random people on the street, or in the subway. What to many slavs is a type of stupid grin is to many Americans a sign of "being nice". We are not talking about actually smiling, say when you feel genuine warmth towards a friend.
Not American (British), and it's never felt aggressive/threatening, but smiling in a way that shows my teeth has always felt exceptionally forced. It doesn't stand out as strange when other people do it, but it just doesn't feel like a natural reaction for me.
We don't need judges to be politicians, because we have politicians. We don't need them to be kings - we got rid of kings for very good reasons.

"Worth" what? If deploying a microservice as a unikernel is just 'M-x deploy' (or a click, for mouse users) away, what's the cost?
Why? Because different frequencies are linearly independent and shouldn't affect eachother? That is only true for linear systems.

I am not sure what causes the other sounds to sound dampened, I figured it had something to do with how the ear works, that the sounds were physically still there.

But it is easy enough to try. Get a speaker or transducer rated for ultrasonic frequencies, and pump it with enough power that would make a real speaker sound painfully loud.
I assumed the comment was addressing people who wanted to use NocoDB to build something, not the people creating it.

Looks like the developers took the suggestion. As of now the EFF banner is off the site, that's a really good move to keep up a trustworthy image!
Yes. Typically you are seeing an interpolations between the last agreed source of truth - 1 time interval and the last agreed source of truth. The idea is that all inputs will be received for +1 time interval before you get to the actual last agreed on source of truth (which becomes the last agreed source of truth -1 time interval ).
The arguments made in this piece are a bit difficult, particularly when the author is so assertive; the other way, he says, is 'bullshit'. I cannot buy that.

It's easy, at lest for me, to see that he seems to be saying that David should have had conversations with Goliath.

I'll agree with his assertion about the "good guys at Amazon" - there are bound to be plenty of them.

What I find hard to believe that the "let's talk" should go the way of the small guy holding hat in hand and asking the big guy to collaborate. Shouldn't it have been the other way around?

Or is it simply the case that the fact that the big guy quite accidentally sucked the life out of other business models; they didn't see it coming?

I don't know what the truth (whatever that means) in this case might be, but this piece, it seems to me, is trying to shift the blame.

This topic, in any case, is worthy of a far larger public conversation than can be mustered in this venue; in a sense, I appreciate that the author brought this topic out in the daylight.
> She went to Prague

Czech people are often brisk in attitude, Berliners on the other hand - that's something else entirely, I wouldn't describe people as unfriendly but everyone acts coldly and mechanically. Could it be that the fractured state of the city made everyone to be like that?
With Stadia et al. your computer sends keystrokes and mouse movements to Google's servers, and the server returns a video feed that's then displayed on your screen. Today's multiplayer games send and receive movement information and such, but the graphics rendering, which I believe is the main issue here, is still done client-side.

"Invest in the team" makes some sense when you're talking about bright people with a lame idea (RSS search engine, or whatever.) But in this case the idea isn't merely lame; it's a scam, and the team being invested in are a team of con-artists. What might they pivot to, if not another scam?
Once your Return is greater than your Income - you're in a different class of people.

This is true for everyone retired. It's true for a lot of people >55. And it's true for almost everyone in the top 1% by wealth (by definition you have >$10.5M - which even with average returns would net you $787,500 in capital gains per year - which is greater than the cut off for the top 1% in earned income).

Outside of that dynamic, I don't think there's as big of a difference between the top 20%, 10%, and 5%.

It's all relative to wealth - and the curve doesn't get ridiculously steep until you get into the >2% (of wealth).
Melting pot cultures, like Brazil and America's, do not have common ethno-linguistic substrate on which to build civic society. Overt, ostentatious displays of goodwill and trust are a selected-for meme in successful, modern melting-pot cultures.

I predict that smile incidence will vary in correlation to the ethnic homogeneity of a polity.
Woah, that's a heroic effort. Can't wait to try it! Huge thanks :)
Someone making six figures still pays a lot more tax, in both net numbers and percentage (=tax brackets) than someone poor(er).

If we want to go down your route, 10% of all clothes in ShoppingCentre(TM) is unfair too, because someone buying an Armani suit saves more money than someone buying a $10 5pack of white tshirts.
Yeah I 100% agree. Ideally in a good interview you want to assess a whole range of things - data structures, security, personal background, systems design, real coding, communication skills, etc. Most people are weak in some areas, and you want to give candidates lots of opportunities to impress you.

> Overwork CONTRIBUTES to the death of more than 745k per year. It did not solely and directly cause those deaths

Slightly off-topic, but the truth is the same can be said of Covid 19. That is, presence of or correlation is not necessarily causation. The best example is, people who were morbidly obese; with high blood pressure, Type 2 Diabetes, other complications, etc. Yet Covid gets sole credit for the deaths?

All that aside, a lack of time (e.g., from working a lot) leads to "compromises." Fast food, not exercise, no mental downtime, etc.
What? No, Swedes smile a lot and have a lot of polite set phrases. Although it's more rare to hear people say "good" to an "how are you", it's usually some variation of "jovars", "can't complain".
Please take all that with a grain of salt everyone:

comments like this is for me a good signal that this whole climate change thing is just a front for something else.

Please note: I have no shares in fossil companies, I work for railway companies, I buy my stuff used and reuse and sort waste so much my wife gets crazy.

So I'm almost there already but for other reasons: I belive in ecology. Not wasting wildlife areas. Not polluting.

Climate? Anthropogenic changes?

Look at a globe. Put your fingers at the oil fields. Then think that all CO2 from these fields has to be spread out thin across the whole rest of the globe.

Or do something else: try to ask someone about some real numbers. I've been interested in those numbers.

I never get any numbers. I get dismissed rudely for using the "Just Asking Questions" tactic, a tactic I didn't know until I was told that I used it.

The only number I get is 2500 infallible scientists and as far as I now know a fair number of them weren't scientists but authors etc.
I guess we are just going to have to agree to disagree.

I don't consider spam phone calls as a safety threat and you do. I am not excusing the abuse of this data. I simply think these are some of the risks someone accepts by participating in this activity.

I don't know what I said that you consider denying your concerns as "not happening". Saying you should just accept those results or stop participating is not saying those results aren't happening.

I don't know why you are so tied to "repercussions" as been some type of problematic word. All it means is unintended and unwanted results. It wasn't a judgement of you. It was a literal descriptor.

My only motivation is that I am developer, I do data analysis, and I use public services. I empathize with the people who have to clean up after users abuse these services and I don't like when public services need to be downgraded because of such abuse.
Russians are so extreme.

Even though my favourite professors at Waterloo in Canada were Russian, it wasn't until I learned some basic Russian that I finally got over the typical view of them drilled into people by Hollywood.

Your run of the mill Russian is honest about their feelings. Not honest about the facts, no, they can cheat on an insurance filing just fine. But that coldness that so many of them seem to have is often just an outer shell. Once one of them trusts you and gets to know you they're so warm and intense about their love for you. So excited to show you something dear to them. Even devoted enough to learn a new language just to speak to you, even if they're a senior[0]. It doesn't mean the relationship always survives, because that intensity is still there when they're angry, but the highs are so high.

I do not regret learning basic Russian.

I see consumer confusion as based on our ability to guess whether there's going to be a mismatch between communication and understanding, and despite technical correctness. Admittedly that example is pretty marginal, so I added a better one.
Realm of the Mad God was able to build a successful game because they were extremely conservative on features -- low-res 2D graphics, no user-generated content, simple game mechanics, limited persistence. DreamWorld is... not that. They're promising features which nobody has successfully brought to market before, with a team which doesn't appear to have any meaningful experience in the industry.

The startup is effectively doomed at this point. It's almost impossible to recover from

> We get accepted and he calls me on to a meeting with the other founder just 2 days ago and essentially tells me that in order for him to quit google and be fully committed to our company he thought he deserved more equity so that he could feel like he’s valued here. CEO and COO proceeded to tell me that at that point i was less valuable than them and how my skills and expertise where subpar to theirs so I didn’t deserve the equity I had.

Basically, my advice is to register trademarks, domain names and incorporate the company with the same name, and try to get everyone who is on your side to quit.

It's not sabotage, at this point it's certain the startup will fail. You are just making a failed company fail in a week instead of maybe 6 months.
Shocking!

TWC Internet was pretty good here, at least they were technically competent. The field service people were pretty good too. But our bill was slightly different every month. Never got any explanation for that. Eventually, Internet-only was over $100 for 300/20. The only competition was AT&T, but their data cap would have doubled our bill.

Then Google came to town. Real competition. 1G/1G for $70. With their new config I didn't have to mess with their VLANs, and finally got IPv6. Of course we swapped out the Fiber Box for our own router immediately (an ER-4), and a year on haven't had a single outage -- although sometimes have to work on battery backup because Duke Energy...

Its deeper than that. Calling the fused location api contacts google's servers with location data. It is the only API that's well supported and documented. Using GPS sensors directly uses tons of battery, takes minutes to get a fix on most phones, and doesn't have access to some of the google-provided features like geofencing and wakeups on events.

A "g-free" phone can get location, but it's purposely hampered.
I picked up a lot of conversational english because the TV Show Friends was on pretty much during the entire afternoon when I was a teenager and I would spend most of my time after school watching it.

Since I spent a lot of time in english-speaking professional environments for the last few years I managed to deviate a little bit from "Friends style" speak but I still end up saying "like" often if I start rambling.

A lot of people I know also have a bit of a vice with the word "like" and picked it up from Friends as well, it's an interesting thing to notice.
Not really standard. Intel is one generation "late" for the same process compared to TSMC.

By TSMC standards, Intel's 7nm is a 5nm process and Intel's 10nm is a 7nm process.

So it is not even industry standard marketing bullshit.

Historically, the cheapest way to "grow" farmland has been to make marginal land more productive.

And of methods for doing that, irrigation is the most effective. This speaks directly to Liebig's Law of the Minimum, which states that whatever factor is most critical in limiting plant productivity is the one whose adjustment will have the greatest impact on productivity. For plants, water is a cheap addition, it's frequently the critical missing factor in increasing land productivity, and will literally take you from 0 to 100% alone.

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebig%27s_law_of_the_minimum)

By this reasoning, "vertical farming" is taking land as the limiting factor and literally requires building more land, substrate, water, sunlight, and nutrients in order to increase areal productivity. This is close to a maximally expensive expansion option. To date, vertical farming has been utilised only on very high-value crops, or those for which freshness is at an absolute premium. (Fresh crops can be moved across and between continents in days or hours, though quite often a 14-day transport with refrigeration retains freshness.)

For bulk cereal staples, overall land area remains the principle limiting factor, with sunlight, water, topsoil, fertiliser, and pest control as principle inputs. Weather is another key factor, with freezing, damaging storms (hail, winds), and heat as major concerns.

It is cool to see handtracking working in my browser!

Unsurprisingly, there are serious flaws with this tool. It's hard to get this right, and there are endless "learn ASL" projects that only ever get as far as recognizing canonical handshapes.

The first word I was prompted to fingerspell was ABLE.
Instead of B, I signed 4 (fingers spread) and it accepted it. Just a curiosity.

The second word was LOVE. The E in LOVE, for many users, will be different than a "textbook" E, because of assimilation. The preceding V affects the E (only 2 fingers are selected instead of all 4). There is a perfect explanation here: https://www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-layout/handshapes.htm

iirc money mostly enters Britain because they use it as the way point for the tax havens "controlled" by Britain; their overseas territories and crown dependencies. Then it disappears into the land of political and financial voodoo of nameless holding companies, trusts and such, where nobody knows who is responsible for what, in both holdings and regulations. Mossack Fonseca's Panama Papers were a fairly big deal, but in reality that was the tiniest glimpse into that opaque world, and the revelation ended up changing nothing. Politicians still campaign about tax rates as if they mean anything when they can just be avoided.
Most people only find it brutal because they're not accustomed to it and like to ignore the sad realities, even in their own lives. Most people can get used to it.
