... "forever destined", really? "no matter how hard they work" ?!

Alternatively, and much less apocalyptically, a median hetero man in China will spend 17% less time in a committed relationship than one in the Germany (or wherever). Stated that way it doesn't really sound that bad.

I repeat AGAIN, that you're invoking what seems to me to be an incel fantasy, that some men are going to "win" and that those that don't will be "forever destined" to being alone. And no, the truth is that most people (everywhere!) spend a bunch of their lives lonely, but sometimes find relationships, and that love is hard work, finding happiness takes effort, and mopey excuse-making helps no one.

And in particular, the brand of mopey excuse-making I'm seeing here gets really toxic really fast.

The inversion of monetary control is the biggest reason my mind boggles that governments haven't clamped down harder.

The only explanation I can come up with is that institutional banking / government regulation is so stodgy that they haven't played out the decade+ repercussions.

Because after viable value is established, it's going to be a hard genie to put back in the bottle.

It's much harder to make something that appears to have value, not. Than it is to keep something that appears to not have value, not having value.
The dust bowl wasn’t addressed until the dust made it to Washington [1]. I suspect we’re not going to see real climate change mitigation in the US until Capitol Hill is flooded with sea water (elevation: 79ft).

Although changes to individual actions are needed to solve the climate crisis, the impact of individual actions will be minimal, and big policy changes are needed to make meaningful impacts.

The things that are actually working to produce the small policy changes we have seen so far, such as the green new deal, are protest movements like Extinction Rebellion and the Sunrise Movement [2].

I am seriously entertaining the idea of devoting much of my time to influencing policy. I believe that when it’s not just students and young people being arrested at protests but mainstream professionals, we may see some more serious changes. But I’m not terribly hopeful either.

I'm not certain, but I believe that would still work, because the lookup for the canary domain is done using the local resolver and if you are redirecting its configuration to your PiHole, the PiHole would respond. It sounds like you have a relatively unique network configuration, so I'd advise that you test this and share the results with all of us.
I moved entirely. It was mostly the GW that I didn't like. The primary bug was when they changed the maximum SSID length from 32 (standard) to 31 and I could no longer edit my network.

I also had a very frustrating ARP bug where ARP broadcasts wouldn't work across mesh'd APs (https://www.reddit.com/r/UNIFI/comments/ghs4bg/arp_for_clien...).

Then there was just some various other quirkyness/weirdness, and I happened to get out just before the big security breach was disclosed.

I ended up going to a Ruckus R610 AP that I got via eBay running the Unleashed OS, and it's outstanding. Coverage is so good I no longer need my old AP + extra mesh'd one.

For switching I'm just using an old TP-Link that I had laying around.

UniFi seemed really neat at first, but then it just felt... overwraught. I don't need single-pane-of-glass monitoring of a ton of stuff for my home network. I don't want to run a management software server just for my home network. I do want something robust, but I don't want to worry about it, and I want to be able to piecemeal upgrade it. A small PC running OPNsense + a solid AP + just whatever for switching does exactly that.

(I'm not a homelab-type person... If I want that I use VMs, or my employer's hardware. I want my home network to be a solid, reliable utility that requires little maintenance. I don't want to be tweaking my home network after my day job.)
This article is another rehash of "businesses get better tax breaks than you do". I don't think this is very revelatory -- we already knew this.

Also interesting is this particular article is talking about carry forward losses. Regular people can carry forward losses too, it just doesn't happen very much because it only applies to investments. But if have a big investment loss, you can carry that forward as well. You can also depreciate your assets like Ballmer does. It's just that you probably don't have enough to deduct to get beyond the standard deduction.

The real problem with our tax code is that it favors capital over labor. Losses tied to capital can be written off, but losses tied to labor cannot (like the food, shelter, and clothing you need so you can live to work another day).

Imagine how our world would change if you could write off your rent, meals, and clothes. Anyone living paycheck to paycheck wouldn't pay any taxes at all. Of course it would also discourage savings, so we'd have to find a balance somewhere.

When I switched to vaping, I specifically chose the fruity flavors to disassociate tobacco from nicotine. It seemed to work, because I quickly found myself becoming disgusted with the smell of burning tobacco. So much so that my drunken-bummed cigarettes would be extinguished after only one or two puffs, and even then I was risking physical nausea. Having access to flavors was a huge part of my success with ditching tobacco.

There was a theory, although it may have now been debunked, that the testing of nuclear weapons caused a nuclear winter to some extent, thus offsetting the obvious effects of global warming for some time. So from the 1940s, to whenever it was finally phased out (1980s) , nuclear weapons tests somewhat blocked the possibility of heatwaves being so extreme. This could partly explain the absence of such extremes between 1930s and now. Or it could entirely be a coincidence and randomness. What worries me is simply the extent to which this year's heatwave beats previous records. It does seem to point to an accelerating scenario. Established climate scientists are now saying they may have underestimated how bad its going to be. Previous worst case scenarios for warming were scary enough. I'm concerned about a vicious circle scenario, a positive feedback loop. We really don't want to go there.
How exactly does this inhibit tax collection?
> Renters would pay us to take over the remainder of their lease obligation, we'd find a new qualified tenant and get the landlord's approval for a lease transfer or sublease. If we weren't able to find a new tenant, we'd pay the rent until the end of the lease.

Also pretty nice that you do that, but one thing I would recommend is immediately not allow any landlords that require such evil practices and be banned from your system.
I don't think we've hit that critical mass yet though. And increased regulation can simply kill it by inches so there's no sudden cliff to drop off of that gets people too upset.
The problem is, the sun is more powerful, but the wavelength of the visible/UV light means it can't get past our skin. Radio waves obviously can penetrate much farther and get to the areas that you would want to be concerned about.
There are definitely large organizations who run split horizon DNS because back in the mists of time they made poor choices and assigned IP addresses that were in the public address namespace (ie not a 10. or 192.168.1. etc) that they didn't own randomly to a large number of legacy subnets within their network. It's now too painful to migrate them, so they are a wart that has to be lived with until they eventually retire.

In the meantime they have to use split dns so they are able to keep things kinda working.

I have personally worked at least a couple of large orgs that have this setup (ie 100s or 1000s of ancient devices on internal networks squatting on what are actually public IPs).

The 1 big core + 4 small Atom cores I thought was really cool, really a great idea. But what really really makes me crave this chip, so much, is the on-package ram. That makes board layout much easier, much smaller.

Somewhat mitigated by the Intel class pricing (~$281 suggested MSRP, for both the i3[1] and i5[2] variants), but this seems like the perfect chip for a small powerful mobile computer. I'm thinking, like, headless, pocketable computer with a modest battery & fast USB-C charging. I really wanted to think of this as an upscaled, modernized, powerful Intel Edison, but of course it's really a full PC, not an embedded device. But I think it could have blurred the line, a lot.

Instead of doing anything cool, folks just went out & built the same-old laptops with it, and there wasn't anything noteable or special. It was just a so so performing chip with little distinction to users. I continue to believe though this chip, if under $100, used on very-small computers, could have opened entirely new markets. Really sad to see this go. I wish I had hope that Intel would compete on the low end, some day, but it seems like Intel & AMD don't really have interest in down-market competition.

Crypto is massively profitable. Wall Street hasn't seen margins like these in a long time. There aren't clear and present harms accruing to the electorate. That leaves no incentive, in countries without capital controls, to bother with it.
You ignored the argument in your reply.

The reason that cellphones operate on sunny days is modulation matters — me posting this on a cellphone while sitting in sunshine makes your point wrong.

> Many biologists and electromagnetic field scientists believe the modulation of wireless devices makes the energy more biologically active, which interferes with our cellular mechanisms, ...

The exact argument is you can’t compare the strength of signals alone when considering bio activity — just like strength alone doesn’t determine if a cellphone signal can be heard.
Gas tax is particularly regressive. People with lower incomes have less access to electric cars, charging infrastructure, and real estate with convenient commutes.
I miss the old crypto.

When it was this fringe, nerdy digital coin i could transfer to my friends to pay my bar tab. Yeah - Venmo/paypal/ a billion other systems that did the same thing, but to my friends btc and eventually eth was cooler.

I could stake coins, provide liquidity, mine random coins from my laptop - It was fun. The concept of a global computer was awesome, interesting and nerdy. I've never used an exchange, but i could watch my coins go up and use them to play a couple random Play-To-Earn games, which was also fun.

Now we got all these 'Scam' Coins. But they aren't scams because they literally come out and say they are scams but still achieve billions of dollars in market cap because everyone is just trying to make a quick buck/ have constrained liquidity.

I think the SEC needs to come in and regulate this space, it would be a very welcome change to what crypto has become. Make stablecoins have 24/7 auditability of their investments and have some vetting mechanism to trade on exchanges. That would make it nerdy and cool again.
I should clarify that my experience is with startups (pre-seed to B stage etc) not FAANGs or big cos.

Localized coldness records that are the result of the polar vortex breaking apart over the arctic and sending masses of cold air south. They are accompanied by heat waves and records in the arctic.

Can someone educate me on this? I believed that cell phones emit non-ionizing radiation. I also believed that non-ionizing radiation doesn't cause chemical reactions. I also believed that generally chemical reactions would be required to have a negative effect on human biology.

I do understand there can be heating effects from non-ionizing radiation but the power levels seem really, really low, <2 watts. That seems like an amount of heat that can be easily dissipated.

This article says that I'm missing something. I'm wondering what that is.

This article links to research that shows some of these claims are spurious:

“The exposures used in the studies cannot be compared directly to the exposure that humans experience when using a cell phone,” said John Bucher, Ph.D., NTP senior scientist. “In our studies, rats and mice received radio frequency radiation across their whole bodies. By contrast, people are mostly exposed in specific local tissues close to where they hold the phone. In addition, the exposure levels and durations in our studies were greater than what people experience.”
Wouldn’t that be super easy to measure? Just map cancer incidents alongside with cell phone antenna locations. If it isn’t that easy, the “correlation“ probably is also way less clear than the headline suggests.
