I asked a specific question about opposition not interested in "debunking" the "dubious" claims of those people organized by the senator. You seem to be talking about some "anti-covid train".

So may be it will help if you address my question.

You could argue that 2 of these wars (as well as the standoffs in the Mediterranean with the Greek navy) are aiming to remediate the oil/gas problem.
The difference is you buy a stock/security with the expectation of some future cash flow. The value of the stock is an attempt at pricing the future cash flow at a discount rate.

BTC has no future cash flow and no expectation of future cash flow, of course everyone knows this.

It is an open ponzi scheme that you even kind of understand but you just don't use the language quite right. "Nobody believes that there is some sort of economic activity that is sustaining the growth"

You really mean to say that everyone knows it is a security with no payoff.

It really has nothing to do with fear mongering. An open ponzi is the best description.

The depressing thing is I'm not talking just about off-the-shelf newbies, I'm also talking about experienced devs.

>Its depressing to say it, but I think not understanding the tools is only natural and is probably the new normal in this age of complexity.

Yes, unfortunately, this is becoming the new normal.
But what is the next "new normal" after this? More complexity and obscurity? How long can we keep building that house of cards before it collapses upon us?
> doesn’t make sense that people would choose no job at all over a job that doesn’t pay the wage they want.

I don't agree. The pandemic is still very much happening and low-paid workers are expected to be on the front lines. If this had all happened when I was working retail, I probably would have made the decision to not go to work and catch covid while making 8/hr.
In the US at least, if a bank steals my dollars, the government in control of the fiat currency makes it their business to prosecute the thief and retrieve the currency, but while that is happening they make me whole by issuing me replacement money via the FDIC insurance system.

The community still shouldn't be considered entirely on Activision Blizzard, but they haven't tried to really address the issue from their side either, so I can definitely see your point.
Oh, you are right. They did seem to claim it. But I am not sure how they can prove it in an online forum..
Yes, exactly.

1. With Erdogan, or without Erdogan, it's very unlikely Turkey will ever find any solace with anybody South, or East of their border. The article 5 will remain central to its defence if anything nasty comes up from the South, and the only option if Russia will attack them from the East.

2. Turkey will gain nothing from changing alignment to some distant foreign power.

It is already a strong military power, and it barely ventured past their immediate vicinity in Syria. It cannot really confront Greece, with foreign power backing, or not, because of NATO.

3. The West will continue tolerate Turkey because they really have no alternative to Turkey, and vice-versa.

> The highest rental rates in the world are in the city with the most ownership controls to prevents developers and landlords from profiting: San Francisco.

Correlation is not causation. The reason rents are high in San Francisco is because it's where the 'owners' of a bunch of high-tech Intellectual Property live. Labor aristocrats have to move there to be able to work on that tech. That is what has driven up the rents.

They get the vaccine which is effective at reducing symptoms but not from people testing positive on Covid tests?

The problem is that people are freaking out about people testing positive on Covid tests while fatalities are still very very low.

Which means the vaccines are working to stop sickness as intended...they're just not working with whatever Covid tests have going on.

For some time I was pretty annoyed that git was showing the new suggestions, but for some reasons my git autocomplete did not know about them and thus couldn't tab complete. (It was on ArchLinux with zsh using the grml zsh config).

After a few month the autocomplete got updated as well and I could actually use the new interface without to much frustration.

You must be young. The gap between 1989 and 1999 in computer terms is inmense, far more than the gap between 2010 and 2020. You could emulate a 1989 m68k Mac/Amiga on a Pentium 3 from 1999, for example with BasiliskII/UAE.

Australian's somewhat proudly consider themselves apathetic.

They often don't have strong convictions and if they like something they don't think it through.

When someone headbutted a former Australian Prime Minister, people generally thought it funny. To be fair most Australia thought it funny to call that Prime minister a cunt (The official reason given for the headbutt) even if they voted for his party. Jim Jefferies on the incident - https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1759051187728612

Generally a physical attack on a ex-leader of the county would be considered serious and a danger to democracy. Here the Ex-Prime Minister's only media recourse was to say the guy was a bad headbutter, he really said this. (The attacker did eventually get 2 months prison)

Overall if the apathy is good or bad is a hard call, it's somewhat anarchistic, but ironically gives those in power more control.

80% round trip efficiency is killer for what they are selling here though. That 20% loss is directly cutting into your trading margin. imagine you buy 1MWh at 100USD; you immediately lose 20% of it, so you now need prices at $125 just to break even.

The ability of higher efficiency technologies to perform many more profitable trades in a given year has a significant impact on ROI.
> turkey has already bought from Russia the S400 missile system and then they have been obliged from US (and NATO) to put them “offline”, so what’s the point in announcing a new drone to fight the F35 from NATO? Just the usual defiance from Erdogan?

The last sentence is true.

On the S400 matter cited many times through this thread: Turkey only bought S400 after trying for more than a decade to get any missile defence option from anybody, including Americans themselves (they did not agree to sell them MIM 104F *,) French, Germans (both French, and German deals were sank under US pressure,) Taiwanese, Chinese, Indians, and Israelis.

* USA warmed up to selling Patriot to Turkey few years ago, but that ship has long sailed, with S400 deal being inked years prior.

Turkey, be them a wayward ally, but their feelings of being constantly wronged by the USA, NATO, and EU, and not being truly treated as a peer are fully genuine.

So, yes. They do this to slight USA, just like they bought S400 to punish USA after them really being trolled, for the lack of a better word, by 3 US presidents, along with NATO EU allies.

It's interesting you mention this. I got a chance to visit the family holler (rural mountain farmstead) when I was a teenager. Everyone back there was still driving old pickups, most of their tools were pretty old as well. You could tell a lot of things were kept just because of that very idea that they could repair them.

I know my grandfather, growing up as poor as he did, NEVER threw anything broken away until he was absolutely convinced that it could not be repaired. I wouldn't be suprised if most of his gardening equipment was from the 60's and 70's.
Sort of - in this case they have no choice. They previously held up New South Wales as the "gold standard" in contract tracing and halting the spread of the virus; so if the NSW Government says they have to lock down, the Federal Government pretty much has to go along with it.

But you can be sure that as soon as NSW's case numbers come down enough, the Federal Government will pressure them to start lifting restrictions, as they did towards the end of Victoria's 4 month lockdown last year.

Specifying Installation Requirements for Python Projects
Funny, to me this machine as described is a monster. My brain still registers a 68040 as a powerful processor. My Atari ST ran a full GUI in 8mhz and 512K of RAM (+192KB of ROM) on a 68000. The original Mac had 128MB onboard RAM. GEOS on a C64 runs a convincing GUI in under 64K... on a 6502!

Oh that's "Apple doesn't do anything, even the screens are from Samsung" argument. I'm not going to drill on that but I think you are underestimating Turkey's capabilities.

Erdogan is just one dictator that is in free fall just like the economy he created. He probably wouldn't be around as a politician in few years.

Despite its troubles, Turkey is still a very rich and capable country. It does have an established manufacturing industry with expertise in many areas including aviation.

Thanks to the rise of anti-immigration sentiment and xenophobia in the west, Turkey's talent pool is not draining as fast as it could have.

Because of the lira going down to the drain, an Engineer in Turkey costs $800 to $3000 a month, depending on the seniority. Housing, food etc everything is also cheeper.

Turkey's GINI coefficient is horrible, which means the country does actually has capital concentration. The nationalistic sentiment and culturally obedient population makes it much more sustainable to spend money on military projects.

What Turkey lacks is advanced electronics but they are working on it. For example, the Canadian IR camera sensor that they no longer want to sell is to be replaced with indigenous one. Unfortunately, that one will be heavier and larger which would probably affect other aspects of the drones in question - like range and speed, probably.

Yes, xray was abandoned and teletype is written in JS.

I understand your point and as a researcher and engineer I know your feeling. I took some cautions by using "Some optimizations". I value engineering as much as research and I'm bothered when I heard any side telling the other side that their work is worthless. Your work and the work of Kevin Jahns are very valuable and could improve the way that researchers and engineers do benchmarks.

This is still hard for me to determine when position-based list CRDT (Logoot, LogootSPlit, ...) are better than tombstone-based list CRDT (RGA, RgaSplit, Yata, ...). It could be worth to assess that.

3 year ago I started an update of LogootSplit. The new CRDT is named Dotted LogootSplit [1] and enables delta-synchronizations. The work is not finished: I had other priorities such as writing my thesis... I have to perform some benchmark. However I'm more interested in the hypothetical advantages of Dotted LogootSplit regarding synchronization over unreliable networks. From an engineering point-of-view, I'm using a partially-persistent-capable AVL tree [2]. Eventually I would like to switch to a partially-persistent-capable b-tree. Unfortunately writing a paper is very time consuming, and time is missing.

I still stick with JS/TS because in my viewpoint Wasm is not mature yet. Ideally, I would like to use a language that compiles both to JS and Wasm. Several years ago I welcomed Rust with a lot of enthusiasm. Now I'm doubtful about Rust due to the inherent complexity of the language.
