For now. Going to be much more difficult for this to continue when the average temperatures are 10° higher. And I can very well see a situation arise where nuclear weapons are used because of pressures from climate change, say between India and Pakistan.

I think we were able to survive the Cold War because the threat was literally explosive: highly visible and quickly understandable. For longer term, quieter threats like climate change humanity does not appear to have the capability to avoid its destruction, or even the will to do so.
They are talking about "intervals" in 3+1 dimensional space time. To explain it rigorously, one needs to define a few terms like "metric" or "light cone". One defining property of the photon is that its space-time interval between any two events in its history is zero. You can think of it as the dual of the fact that a clock moving at the speed of light would be completely stopped.

> The NFT game is all about making your NFTs look unique and noteworthy, with as much fanfare and publicity as possible. That’s because the only way to make money from an NFT is by flipping it to someone else, who thinks they can flip it to someone else, and so on.

Truly it's the purest form of Keynesian beauty context imaginable, and everyone who's participating hopes they won't be the greater fool.

Honestly, NFTs will make it into economic textbooks, assuming they haven't already. They've become these wonderfully pure little natural experiments in economic theory, and it's fascinating (and horrifying) watching them play out.

They are reserved because the compiler (and OS) writers need identifiers they can use in their own headers without breaking valid user code. Since there is no good way for the compiler to say which headers are user headers, erroring on those symbols would be counter-productive.

Earning $900 at 14 seems extraordinarily high, especially if you're talking about a while ago.

In the UK a 14yo can only work 25h/week outside term time and must have at least two weeks rest over summer, with no minimum wage. £4/h isn't unheard of (a pretty typical rate for a paperound). I worked cleaning cars at a garage decades ago, maybe scraping £3/h for 10 hours a week. I think many of today's 14yos would struggle to break £400 over the entire holiday.

... That is, as is the contention here, unless they have a family member paying them a decent wage.

As a Chinese myself, I've been through a lots of this kind of paper reading club. And yes, you read the law you then you roughly know what is illegal. And clearly, those people in the reading club can read paper text in it's literal means, so that's a cognitive pass, congrats!

However, let's don't forget that you cannot form labor union without blessings from the party. Let's also don't forget that in China, company can fire people really easily, they just hide those unfair or even discriminatory reasons under the table, no one will help you because helping people is too costly.

There is a labor union in China of course, The labor union, called ACFTU, or All-China Federation of Trade Unions. I don't remember when was the last time they actually sued someone/company, maybe never.

Personally, I don't think those paper laws and paper institutions are actually there to serve the general public. So I don't even care what they've said, nothing will change for the better.

I use "site:" in my searches. For example, if I want a starting point for looking up a molecule, medication, supplement, etc... I go to google or bing and use "site:nih.gov some_search_terms" or "site:examine.com some_search_terms". If I am unsure what domains to start with, I follow the suggestion by PaulHoule in this thread and of course I also use uBlock and NoScript to avoid some ad-noise.

I don't think default rates by race should impact an individual's mortgage approval or rates. A responsible individual shouldn't be punished with less favorable loan terms because of their race. Why should they have to work harder as an individual to prove their credit-worthiness because they were born a certain race? That completely goes against the idea that hard-work and individual responsibility matter.
I think it's wrong to assume its just speculation. Lebanon is a troubled country, and if I've heard correctly their local currency is inflating. So they could just be trying to protect their savings (earned from their labor in many cases no doubt) from being devalued. Perhaps they also want it protected by government confiscation. The might also just keep their funds in USD stable coins (tether is not the only one).

How many code bases have you actually worked on?

Yes, but I think we need to be clear here on what we mean by theory, and what information we're taking as a given.

The proposition, "steel bars in this lab fall to the earth" being /false/ doesn't impact essentially any theory of physics if there are magnets in the lab. If you exclude every possible alternative, leaving gravity, then the proposition being false invalidates basically all of physics. Including the fundamental assumption that the laws of the universe are universal.

So the question is what theories *require* a proposition to be true, in that, they logically entail it.

When this is made clear it should be obvious that "maybe the maximum speed of the universe is different" is very very different to the claim, "maybe mars is habitable".

Many lay people, entirely ignorant of the best theories we have, do not understand that the former requires extraordinary levels of evidence to take seriously; while the latter requires almost none.

This type of "unknown unknown" argument often fails to make this distinction for the sake of making some fantasy as plausible as some possible reality.
It's okay imo. IPv4 on the internet is getting very expensive very fast. The market will do its thing and the solution is already on hand: IPv6. The addresses are virtually free. Sure it's not with all the fanfare and it doesn't meet all of its promises, but it will happen and fast.

What's the western way? Don't you mean the US way?

In western Europe most places tax at source, which means your wages are taxed before they are sent to your bank. This sort of direct taxation ensures more compliance. I think rather the issue is that many places will deal in cash, where it is easier to avoid tax.

Of course. "Pay by productivity" does not mean "pay everybody the same per hour of labor". Cook's output has greater influence on the company than any (or perhaps almost any) other employee at Apple. He should be paid commensurate to that output.

In my experience, such problems only occur when people believe that common software engineering practices do not apply when writing stored procedures. Just have your stored procedures version controlled, tested, and deployed like any other code.
Depends, accessibility is a spectrum. Most people don't need a fully voice/gesture based interface but can get by with good contrast controls and font sizing (as in, the fonts need to be able to get huge). Accessibility is also being able to use the interface only with a keyboard, or only with a mouse or specialized controller with 2 buttons.
There are vanishingly few good programmers anywhere. SV has more because it attracted them from around the world.

In my experience college education has nothing to do with who is really a good programmer. Sure MIT grads are better than average, but that's because they have a reputation to attract the people that are the most interested in it. CS fundamentals definitely make you a better programmer and able to solve harder problems, but it's somewhat orthogonal to the daily grind of keeping a mental model of a large obtuse system in your head while solving hundred arcane micro-hurdles one after another.
As someone who's considered becoming a customer of certain platforms, I've hesitated because of the worry that the data would be "locked in", making it difficult to transition if I ever wanted (or needed) to.

New cell phones and smart watchs can interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators
IIRC, the DOE went to congress in ~2017 with a report calling for a strategic transformer reserve. They estimated $0.5 billion would cover buying and transporting 1 redundant transformer to every major power substation in the US. At the time, it took about 18 months or so to design, buy, and receive one large transformer. After a solar storm that knocks out half the worlds infrastructure, who knows how many years it would take to replace our electrical grid.

It would be cheap at twice the price, especially in light of the recent infrastructure bills. The damage, the fires, the loss of life caused buy a large solar storm could be comparable to a world war. I hate to put it in a cold & calculating manner, but the countries that are able to avoid damage or rebuild first would see economic growth similar to the post WW2 economic boom.
God, I could have written most of this post myself. I made a few different tech choices - bought a projector instead of trying to un-smart a smart TV, and my ISP thankfully provides me with a static IP for free so I can easily access my Pi over the internet. But the core self-hosting and privacy tools are the same - LineageOS, Nextcloud, F-Droid, Pi server, Linux desktop. Same cursing when Nextcloud slows down or raises nonexisting conflicts. Same confusion/annoyance from my friends or dates when I send them a slow self-hosted link instead of just sharing via Whatsapp. Same asking myself why am I doing all of this, as I am no dangerous dissident or whistleblower (yet!).

One big difference between me and Mr. Lawson is that I'm not entirely opposed to running hostile apps. I do use WhatsApp because I live in Western Europe where not doing so would, sadly, cut me off from 90% of social life. I still use Google Maps because I need business contact / opening hours / restaurant menu information far more than I do accurate GPS navigation (but I would freeze it and whip out OSMAnd+ if I needed to navigate to my local dissident society meetup). And I use GBoard because it's just smoother than Anysoft or Floris or other OSS keyboards.

However, I consider them hostile apps so while I choose to run them, I don't want to let them run unrestricted; I sandbox them as much as possible. GBoard has no internet access, period; neither does Google Translate (after downloading the language files I cared about). My phone doesn't have a built-in Google Account, so Google Maps runs in anonymous mode (I send bookmarks to Joplin); it constantly brings up a popup complaining that it can't run without Play Services, but immediately proves itself a liar by running perfectly anyway.

For other apps, TrackerControl forbids them from connecting to any domain I don't explicitly allow. Insular prevents them from accessing my local data. Thankfully, the only data-hoovering apps that I need to janitor in such a way are WhatsApp and Tinder; everything else either has a FOSS client, or runs as a webapp (my browser, of course, has an extensive and very very clunky suite of privacy addons).

Most importantly, I have a simple rule of not doing or writing anything on WhatsApp that I would be embarrassed to see plastered on a billboard in front of my house - thankfully that encompasses 99% of my everyday life. For the remaining 1% of content, I find people are more understanding when I tell them 'mind if we discuss this over a phone call or Signal?'.

One last thing, since I mentioned the TrackerControl app - although I try not to be a tech vegan and simply say that I have a passion for tinkering and a bit of a paranoid streak, I've found most people's eyes to light up a little up when I open TC and show them how a random innocuous app is connecting to a half-dozen different social media websites. It's not enough to convert anyone - and I wouldn't try anyway, given how cumbersome even a plain LineageOS installation is to maintain - but it does give them pause, and they at least claim to understand why I may care about this stuff.

I’ve heard the opposite, that people don’t really see a bump from premium.

While I’m sure it’s different for every creator I would be curious to see the math.

But you may be right.
Just looking at the example, I notice that you have to use Enums to pass messages around. E.g. "IncrementPressed" in the example. Wouldn't it be much easier to use closures for that? Managing Enums sounds like an unnecessary administrative burden.

But you say that if we paid by productivity then entrepreneurs would simply bypass those people. Whether that is possible is independent of how we determine compensation.

You allow yourself to provide a very loose mechanism for roughly determining scarcity but demand a very precise mechanism for determining productivity in the previous post. This is an unfair comparison.
