Something like this is being messed around with by a few different companies in the form of fractional share ownership in cards, which is likely to be the form it ends up taking (a trusted market, ala the Nasdaq).

So the market holds the 1952 Mickey Mantle and shares get issued against it. You can buy and sell the shares, you never need worry about taking possession of the underlying asset. The market holds the physical asset and insures it.

If cards are going to have another level up from the single digit million dollar area, it'll be due to fractional ownership speculation. Up to this point, generally speaking, either a singular or very small number of people own the most expensive cards or can afford to own them. With fractional ownership, people can put $500 into a $5 million Mantle card, and own part of its appreciation over time. That flood of buyer demand will inevitably pop the total value of all the shares far higher than would otherwise occur for the card as a whole (which prompts the question of whether $30-$50 million type valuations end up happening for some of those cards, as in the art world).

PWCC is one of the obvious candidates for building a giant holding market, with card IPOs or something akin to that. They already allow you to borrow against the cards you hold in their vault. I'd be surprised if they don't experiment with fractional ownership in the near future.
> but a quick search for “Robinhood users leaving” brings back countless articles like these:

All that proves is that robinhood is losing a bunch of superstonk users, but it doesn't say whether they're losing users in net or how much % of robinhood's userbase are made up of those users.
yeah, article should talk about periodic TRIMming, though this is more an admin advice
> Animals will catch what they eat, and catch no more than necessary

Nope:

> Surplus killing, also known as excessive killing, henhouse syndrome,[1][2] or overkill,[3] is a common behavior exhibited by predators, in which they kill more prey than they can immediately eat and then they either cache or abandon the remainder. The term was invented by Dutch biologist Hans Kruuk after studying spotted hyenas in Africa[4] and red foxes in England.[5][6] Some of the other animals which have been observed engaging in surplus killing include orcas, zooplankton, humans, damselfly naiads, predaceous mites, martens, weasels, honey badgers, jaguar, leopards, lions, spiders, brown bears,[7] american black bears, polar bears, coyotes, lynxes, minks, raccoons and dogs.[citation needed]

How bizarre. I deleted my final comment because I realized it is ridiculous that it has gone this deep. But here we are.

It's funny that you bring up editing, because the single thing I was replying to was your original claim that your airbag-less vehicle was the same model they sold "everywhere" (which you later edited because of course the vehicle was illegal in a number of nations). I never contested that you bought some bizarrely outdated vehicle in the UK in 2009. If I edited a comment, I made it more accurate immediately, and it's incredibly strange that you think you've caught me out.

I truly don't care about your strange retro vehicle. But in this conversation it is so hilariously irrelevant to the context.
I suspect the only long term way to avoid touchscreens and cellular is a DIY EV. EVWest, for example, now has complete kits for 14 cars: https://www.evwest.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=40
I don't quite buy that you could really have said the same about the 32 bit to 64 bit transition. 4 Gigabytes is a far cry from 18 exabytes! It is going to be a long while till we scale up to that level.
If you don't desire to seek medical help, the best thing you can do is stop self harming and stop caring about all the possible negatives you are imagining.

This. Enterprise Developers use opensource because it empowers them to choose the right compone nts without involving an entire purchasing organization. And why pay for software if there’s no support organization with support contracts and SLA’s?
My boss told me it was discouraged by company policy to share my salary with my coworker, where I learned he was making substantially more than me. I told him that was illegal. He never mentioned it again. It also got me a good sized raise, so it all worked out.
Or fire some women in the bottom quartile and hire men instead. Clearly this is necessary to achieve fairness.
> Amazon is first and foremost a retailer

I feel these days that it's more correct to say Amazon was first and foremost a retailer, but these days they are just UberMegaCorp across so many businesses (Amazon site proper, AWS, WholeFoods, Kindle, Echo/Alexa, movie studios, etc. etc.) that it's hard to say they are foremost a retailer.

I have a similar question, though, in that I've heard lots of nightmare anecdotes about Amazon code quality, but obviously whatever they are doing is working on some level.
I more meant that it would take at least that size-class of heavy lift launch vehicle.

With Starship this would definitely be doable, and I’m really optimistic about it; I just wanted to be cautious in my predictions.

I also wouldn’t be surprised if Delta IV’s life gets extended. Vulcan is facing plenty of development delays, and Blue Origin are yet to produce anything useful.
I don't usually downvote people here at all, but that was such shoddy reasoning that I think you deserve it.

The panel had three experts on the subject, including the inventor of the mRNA technology that was used to develop these vaccines, Robert Malone.

Apparently no one likes this idea. Here's mine: we nuke the planet and collect its smitherines for SCIENCE!
Even the précis with an accented e is flawed. This is still akin to saying the ALU in the computer CPUs is the key to solving all our cybersecurity issues, like in a uselessly pedagogical way it might be true but it’s mostly bs. The fact of the matter is our biological systems and signaling pathways evolved with no particular plan in place, so of course various components inside a cell play important roles that might not sound intuitive to anyone. The mitochondria are very much a part of our cell notwithstanding having their own dna, how many trillions of generations do you need before you stop pointing out that this family member was adopted or something ?

I’m not saying that these pathways should not be studied, but it’s very annoying that scientists resort to such disingenuous messaging not just to the public but also to grant review committees. My favorite other outrageous (important, but still outrageous) strictly true but kinda bs statements include:

1. We are more bacteria than ourselves because we have more bacterial cells (our cells are 1000x larger so no shit)
2. Using only 10% of your brain
3. Your immune system is responsible for X
4. Your gut micro biome is responsible for X

(Though 3 and 4 have exceptions like when the autism researchers finally conceded that maybe the parents were not bsing after all and there’s a gut immune connection).
64bit didn't come in 2003, it came in 1991 in MIPS, in 1992, in Alpha, and in 1995, in SPARC.

Nintendo 64 and Playstation 2 were using 64-bit CPUs before PCs.

x86 was really late in the game.
I literally already have too much RAM on my computer for a 32 bit processor to address it all.
German is so similar to english that switching is not really a thing. It's mostly programmers that do it to have easier access to punctuation and brackets. Frankly, I cannot understand why the Z and Y were swapped in the first place.

German keyboards are just flexible enough for writing the odd french or spanish loanword. Other languages pretty much always require specific keyboard layouts.

Edit: The [Neo2 and Bone](https://neo-layout.org/) layouts make it possible to easily type in most latin-based writing systems.
Very impressive, huge fan of the course and love seeing projects written with HACK.
Amazon has a hiring status that is basically “probably good to hire, but not a fit for my team”. Other team managers can go check that status and look for candidates that have been through the process already and basically do 1 short interview then hire the person. I think it’s called recycling?
"Always just publish your research."

In most bug bounty programs I've seen (including Apple's and Facebook's) payouts are contingent on not publishing the research without consent.
When I went to the optometrist, he prescribed some new ones. I ordered a new set of expensive glasses at the adjoining shop.

I noticed that the glasses came in an off-brand cheap case. Another customer there noticed the same thing. What the shop was doing was swapping out the expensive case that went with the expensive glasses, and likely sold the expensive ones to a glasses counterfeiter.

I don't use cases, so didn't care, but I thought the shop was pretty scummy.
I think most of the criticisms against Julia come from the fact that people see it as a Python competitor. In its actual state (even if the last version improved compile time a bit), it is not really usable as an exact python replacement (short scripts, opening a new interpreter each time).

However it is a revolution for the HPC crowd. If your program is supposed to run for several days on multiple nodes, 10 seconds of compilation is a negligible price to pay for a much cleaner and shorter code than Fortran or C/C++.

I've been using Julia for a few months for physics related simulations and it's just so much better than Fortran to work with.
> That left the housing market with a serious shortage of homes, just as millennials have begun getting married and having kids — traditional hallmarks of home-buying interest.

That works only as long as the new generation is money to buy a home from the older generation. I do not know too much about the situation in the US, but in the UK for many young people new in the workforce, buying a house is not affordable any more, and the future might see a large number of aged sellers facing a shrinking number of young buyers which, due to shrinking real wages, can pay less and less while mortgages rise.

In other European countries, the situation might be even more complicated, since real estate might have become a substitute for forms of money like treasuries, in other words it might have become a form of money and this might have become much stronger coupled to inflation than it was in the past.
Side note: I’d love to use a forum like this but filter out all the Indian specific things. Is that possible?
Yes, this is an aspect of orbital mechanics that people find unintuitive before they study it. You can't be captured by a planet's gravity alone. If you come in from infinity (i.e., not already captured) you will escape to infinity (remain not captured). The basic idea can be seen from the fact that gravitational dynamics are time-reversible, so if gravity could capture you like this you could also start in orbit around a planet and spontaneously be ejected.

Now, something like this can work if you use an irreversible interaction like aerobreaking, but this dwarf planet has negligible atmosphere. You could also use the dwarf planet for a gravitational assist (basically bouncing off it like a billiard ball), but I think gravitational assists from the other planets are almost always more convenient and effective.
This is fantastic! Thank you! :D (…schmerk de herdygerdy, bork, bork, bork…)
So true. Today I must explain to my mother that she needs to press a flat picture (not a button) of three horizontal bars in order to pull up a command list. The list won't be sorted by category, but by a designer or developer's perception of which commands are most used.

In the mid 90s, I could walk my 80-something-year-old grandfather through WordPerfect with ease: "File does basic file operations, like save or print. Edit is for editing, like copying and pasting."

Menu bars work because they're a great feature-discovery tool when done right--with verbs that describe the commands, and with functions grouped by category.

"Modern" UIs don't. Try to explain it: "So, the lines are called a hamburger menu, they're supposed to look like a list of commands. And you can press it, even though it's completely flat. Then you need read the list until you find the command you want."

The Mac GUI's great innovation was combining intuitive visual cues with an consistent, unintrusive, and always-on system for feature discovery (the menu bar).
But even then, taking home 65 cents on the dollar vs 38 cents on the dollar (or euro) are very different things.
What makes Julia so fast?
Been also working on a 2D game engine and editor. Still a few features missing but getting there! http://github.com/ensisoft/gamestudio
For the best gravity assist you want to have a large delta V, and you want to come in on a hyperbolic orbit that causes you to turn by 90 degrees.

This object has all of the delta V that you could want, but for an object of that mass, the hyperbolic orbit would require going through the planetoid which you can't do. And if it was dense enough that you could (for example a miniature black hole), the tidal forces during the turn would be insane.

So no, this object cannot give a decent slingshot.
My work hours can vary quite a lot - but I’ve been working remotely (mostly from home, I used to go to cafes sometimes when I first started out) for about a decade and a half.

These days I am about ~12 hours ahead of most clients (assuming us clients), so working the same hours isn’t really applicable all the time, and I’ll often do other stuff during the day and then work in the evening and get some overlap at the end of my “shift” as theirs begins.
if that is true disks should come with a very visible note stating this... seriously, 3 months would be nothing. i doubt it is true because 3 months is a time frame which should be surpassed quite often making this more known.
> In france, the legal norm is the 35 hours work week.

Except that in France, the norm for knowledge workers is to work more (38-40h is normal) and get the difference compensated in extra holidays (RTT).

Also most of them don't actually clock their hours and have contracts only stating days ("au forfait"), so the actual worked hours aren't counted at all and often exceed the theoretical amount.

It might not be exactly qannon but it ticks a lot of the boxes. eg. "trust the plan", some sort of predicted event that never comes to pass but keeps on being pushed back, not to mention accusations of shills left and right.

Yes, they would have to return to pre-2010 life while being transported. Not exactly a huge cost compared to the number of lives saved when it’s almost entirely entertainment.
While I definitely agree, I'd say Julia is totally fine for short scripts too. Just spin up https://github.com/dmolina/DaemonMode.jl and you can launch lots of short scripts without excessively restarting julia.

There's also PackageCompiler.jl https://github.com/JuliaLang/PackageCompiler.jl for AOT compilation, but that's heavy enough that I wouldn't bother with it for short scripts.
We've got pip, conda, poetry, etc, all with their different advantages and disadvantages. I think the only thing that could solve the fragmentation problem is an authoritative solution from the Python Foundation itself. Cohesion is what's needed, not more options.
That gets back to crazygringo's point that someone down the line could sell the NFT paired with a counterfeit physical item and it might even be hard to tell who is the scammer and who is the victim.
> if you bought a product and expect its software to do things its creators are clear it doesn’t do, then that’s on you.

I'd expect a computer to compute, whether it's scheduled by Windows, Linux, or iOS; whether Apple thinks I should install a software package or not. It should compute what I want it to, after all, it's using the electricity that I paid for.
It’s not purely self interest. If you note, my comment says my “or worse” outcome is that I steal hospital care from _someone else_ in a zero-sum game. I’m asking what is special about _this_ virus beyond being a “hospital killer.”

I don’t believe COVID has a monopoly on your narrative (chain of transmission leading to death). I’m asking if I should be special casing COVID, or treating it like any other virus.

On top of this, the author is developing KVM itself (more precisely QEMU and Linux virtio drivers); he's not developing with KVM. His work improves performance of the VMs themselves.
It's good to see a piece talking about both genetic and environmental factors in an "and" kind of way rather than an "either/or" kind of way.
While that’s 64TB in a single address space, it isn’t a desktop computer. An apples to apples comparison would consider the 1975 Cray-1 which had a 64 bit CPU, and similarly there have been 128 bit CPU’s.
And one of them is Robert Malone, who invented the mRNA tech that was used to develop the vaccines.

All they are trying to do is have a rational, inclusive discussion based on the data they have gathered, but they are not being allowed to do so.
Similarly, oracle hates anything not built by oracle (especially google). They built their own version of google sheets, built their own outlook plugin to avoid ms entirely, etc. I’m not a dev but would have to call clients and say “please send me a blank google sheet, then I can use it to set up a doc we can use together”.
But someone's still working full hours at Costco or the post office or the barber or the gas station still. If those places closed for an extra day so that everyone gets a 3 day weekend, the benefits you outlined disappear.

I gave up on coin collecting because of the terrible fraud problems, in every aspect of buying, selling, and grading. The whole business is a giant racket.

Heck, you can't even hand a collection to a grader. He'll swap out your good coins for lesser ones when you aren't looking.

Same with stamps.

> Float would be great for the insureco, but any insurer charging anything more annually than average annual claims will lose all their business.

What are you basing the assumption that insurance companies are working with low margins on? There are many competitors, sure, but what reason is there to believe that they must compete on price?
That is the code I'm comparing against. So the fastest Julia version is actually the one using @tturbo in your link. I'm not surprised, pythran gets me the best performance across numba, customized cython and (for some comparisons) julia in most of my tests.
My dad has kept an entry in calendars or date books of short recaps of every day since he was in college. I have done the same using something called a 5 year journal. Not journal entries though, just quick hits of the day. It is really fun to be able to look back at every day and read what happened. One day I need to digitize my dads entries, and maybe store them all so they can be filtered by date. Like read every entry for June 20th.
Not in this case. But the censors don't care.
Nice "motte-and-bailey" argument. But a little transparent, no ?
Correct.

What Javascript JITs realized is that even though objects are malleable, they aren't often changed in most code. As a result, JITs make optimizations that assume that the object shape does not change (with checks to deoptimize when that assumption is violated).

But like you point out, this is all thrown out the window because the python C interface effectively directly exposes the memory and structure of python objects to C extensions. The nice thing about that is calling C is super fast and C has a lot of power. It can create, destroy, and modify python objects at will with little overhead.

This becomes problematic with garbage collection because you can't move memory around if C contains a direct reference to that memory (which is where most GC performance benefits come from). It effectively forces python to do reference counting.

Java also has C interfaces but they are MUCH more punishing to use and come with huge performance downsides. Even though they are working to decrease those costs, they won't the lower cost of python C costs. That's because giving a direct reference to an object managed by the JVMs GC is impossible. There is some level of memory copying that simply has to happen.

PyPy is what you get when you relax some of the compatibility constraints of python. It gets pretty significant performance boosts over the default python, but sacrifices the C interface.

Newly introduced species can have that same effect though?
At least in my country, at fault accidents give you a worse premium for the next few years (one or two right now, but more than ten if I had an accident on the years immediately after I got my first insurance). So you would still end up paying something.
Microsoft really only pays comparatively at each end of the spectrum, so for new grads out of college and people who have Wikipedia articles.

For the majority of people in their career (the Seniors and Principals/Staffs) MS pays significantly worse than other FAANG-type companies, often being well under half in terms of stock compensation for example.

The company is well aware of this as it's constantly brought up in all-hands (both within individual departments as well as at the all-company level), and they always respond with "we've done research and we believe we actually do pay comparatively in this market segment".

Being designed to be fast. Lots of other high level languages were designed with the assumption that performance critical code would be written in low-level languages so they didn't bother designing the language to make various optimzations possible.

Julia was designed for people who don't want to use a low level language for speed. It took a lot of great ideas from languages like Common Lisp, Fortran, etc. as well as a few good ideas of its own and packaged them together in a rather novel way.

The language is dynamic, but it's dynamism is limited in specific ways that makes it very easy for the compiler to optimize code.
How H. W. Lenstra Jr. completed an unfinished artwork by Escher (2020)
Robinhood sent me some unsolicited recruitment a year and a half ago, where they claimed to have 10m users. Surely the number went up over the following year. Somehow, I don't think that hundreds of posts on a subreddit that is explicitly critical of Robinhood is evidence of a mass exodus.

I don't like Robinhood. They gamify investing (the two metrics they shared with me were number of users and average number of visits per day - which is a terrible metric for an investment platform). I have no desire for them to succeed. But what you've posted isn't evidence of a "mass exodus".
What kind of queue depth do you test the read performance? The sequential can be made fast at low queue depth by the SSD controller doing prefetch reads internally. I've worked on such algorithms myself.
In my city, a grassroots organization that started as a bunch of "guerrilla gardeners" now has their urban meadow projects sanctioned by the city, more meadows are being created, and they do paid consulting for the city as well on the topic of biodiversity and various restoration projects.
