I am a native born American English speaker and what you are saying isn't the case here. Omission of the word "has" in no way implies that the jacket doesn't still exist. Inclusion of the word "has" implies the creation of the jacket is in the past and is complete (not ongoing). It does not imply that the jacket necessarily still exists.

In formal grammatical terms including "has" makes the verb "created" past perfect (completed action) while excluding "has" makes the verb aorist or simple past tense (the completeness of the action is unspecified).

Whether or not the verb has "has" before it tells you nothing about the continuing existence of the object. "Has" modifies the verb not the noun.
What you're talking about is the Batteriser/Batteroo. It would actually work fine as a voltage stabilizer delivering a constant voltage all the way to the end, but the inefficiencies in power conversion would probably be a major downside (you're losing some energy on the conversion even if the device itself is powered off).
I've experimented with using factoradic (mixed radix) numbers to index into the combinatorial gamestates for Magic the Gathering.
Does anybody else feel that the hype behind accounting, especially double book accounting, is somewhat overblown for its actual substance?

Every time I dig into accounting and try to learn it more in depth, it seems that the foundation is trivial. And it coasts on a few "clever" implications from the double book assertion (income/expense accounts), almost in spite of how they don't make sense. You can't classify an item as multiple expense categories without growing the semantic model, so why do you even need the concept of an expense "account" in the first place, as opposed to a single entry in your cash account, tagged with categories?

Meanwhile the bulk of the real complexity revolves around tax rules, which always seem to get left out of "accounting" proper, even though they're the overwhelming reason people to go accountants. I actually installed QuickBooks the other week to see what the gold standard looked like, and it ultimately just seemed to be another way to keep basic credit/debit accounts, with little in the way of preparing/optimizing taxes. Its main value add seemed to be in generating paperwork (eg invoices), that while perhaps nice to formalize, would just increase my scope rather than solve my problems. I expected that it would have automatically prodded me into creating a depreciation schedule and things like that, but it appeared I had to set things like that up manually in terms of basic accounts?

I'm asking because I see people talk about accounting as if they're getting a lot of value out of it. But every time I've dug into it thinking there must be something I'm missing, I've never ended up seeing that value.
[Edit: I see the feature quote now] I don't see it.

They're saying it's nothing special-- they're not aware of a significant talent pool and there are "no big video brains".

From there, the first two reasons stated for actual consideration in acquiring YouTube are as a defense or because even talking to them will make it more expensive for someone else to acquire them.
one thing that changed that often gets overlooked is that covid killed off 648k people so far in the US. that's a lot of people. I would fully expect there to be a labour shortage after approximately the population of las vegas is killed off.

and i know that a lot of the deaths have been in older people who may have already been retired, but they are often the childcare providers who enable others to work.
> You spent >3 hours a day just commuting?

Sad to say but a lot of people have car commutes in that range. The Bay has tens of thousands of "supercommuters" whose commute is 90mn or above.

In Europe train commutes in that range are probably more reasonable: you can sleep in the train (super common for the early HSRs), or it can count as part of your work-day (e.g. handle your mail or whatever, a good train seat often works just as well as an office desk).

I've known quite a few people who worked in large cities but wanted to live in the countryside (or at least in smaller cities, way out from even what's usually considered suburbs), they'd take regional or even high-speed train into and out of paris. Not necessarily cheap (especially if you take HSR), but frequent rider and (usually) company contribution made that surprisingly realistic.

Again, are you kidding? Aside from what you say about untraceability not being entirely true due to the much smaller overall ecosystem and finance pool of crypto, concealing dirty capital and assets also happens far, far more enormously in normal finance.. In the world of non-crypto banking, literally hundreds of billions of dollars of assets are regularly moved, labeled, washed and rewashed in ways that make it extremely difficult or costly to know about the dirty origins of much of that money, which is invested worldwide in all sorts of seemingly legitimate ways. This extremely common occurrence is positively global and doesn't even always require physical cash. More often than not it's purely electronic. I know that many people on this site hate cryptocurrency at any opportunity, but come on.. At least use better arguments.
It was a glib little quip, as you mentioned. That was the entertaining part.

Edit: I’ve just noticed a particularly vile and undeserved comment in reply to you, and to some extent feel responsibility, as it’s part of a comment chain I created. I hope the mods will take action and ban whoever made this comment, although by the looks it’s a burner account. It’s quite jarring to see something like that on HN.

what exactly constitutes a "cat person" exactly?

the dichotomy between "dog people" and "cat people" had always been interesting and telling to me.

dog people will go as far as blame you for their "reactive" dog who can "tell when your nervous around him."

not-cat people mostly don't like cats because..the cats are "rude" to them?

In a way, these are similar experiences. You are behaving in a way the animal doesn't like, and the animal is reacting negatively.

With the dog, there isn't much you can easily do about a dog who doesn't know you and feels threatened when you stand up. You're dealing with a few steps removed from a beast in that situation.

But for cats, you can probably just be more cat-polite if you actually want the cat to be nice to you. Same goes for people haha

Based on the article it seems this is a safety feature to prevent the accidental activation of those functions in flight.

I imagine there’s zero reasons for using ground spoilers or reverse thrusters in the air, and doing so would probably cause a complete loss of aircraft.

So to make sure that can’t happen, the functions require a positive “it’s safe to active now” signal from the flight computers.

So the functions themselves are quite capable of operating without the flight computers. They simply refuse to do so unless a flight computer has given them the all clear.
>it is the interest rate - because the price of property is related to the cost of money (aka, interest rate).

You can manufacture more cars and houses as you get more money. It clearly is related to the fact that land yields a risk free return regardless of what you use to price it.

In that sense money and land is an NRA. A non reproducible asset. Low interest rates break the NRA property of money which is perfectly ok if inflation is also low. Rather than holding onto money unproductively they simply switch to holding land unproductively. The solution is to introduce a holding fee onto land.

Even with those numbers being off think of the difference there and why one should be a little more push for the Covid vaccine.

Another possible link is mood (as in mood disorders).

Alcohol can improve your mood (temporarily). Exercise can improve your mood too.

Perhaps there are people whose mood is not so great, who seek ways to improve it, and who wind up discovering both exercise and alcohol work for that. Whereas people whose mood is already fine are less motivated to go searching for that sort of thing.

(The article got close to mentioning this: "linked both exercise and drinking behavior to higher levels of sensation-seeking". But it doesn't seem like quite the same thing to me. A sensation is a short-lived experience, and mood is more of a mental state that persists for a while.)
Hmm. I wonder if there is an antibiotic prodrug that would mimic glucose enough for it to be recognised by beta cells, get metabolised and release the antibiotic payload inside a fat cell.
Latin’s a dead language and was not certainly created to be universal. Pronounce it however you want; if people know what you mean then the goal is achieved.

I've been giving up alcohol for years at a time. I've been overweight for years.
Every time I go back on the alcohol I seem to be a heavier drinker than I was the previous time I gave it up.
I've had a sweet tooth all my life. I can't eat a few sweets from a bag, I have to finish the whole bag.
I've also been getting increasingly overweight for years.
Recently I've taken to watching Dr. Sten Ekkberg's videos on youtube.
I took up the diet recommended basically because it told me I could eat almost everything I really like, butter, beef, cheese, olive oil, oily fish.
I had no specific plans to give up alcohol or sweets completely just to be as moderate as possible.
Bizarrely right from day one I completely lost interest in alcohol (and it's been around a month now) and apart a couple of biscuits a day with a cup of tea, I've not eaten anything sweet. No bread, hardly any potatoes.
I've lost 15 lbs so far and it's been an easier diet to persist with than I've ever tried before.
My short summary of how I understand it works:

A low carbohydrate diet stabilises blood sugar whereas a high carb diet causes swings in blood sugar levels and actually prevents the body from burning fat. Insulin causes the blood sugar to drop then cortisol is released which stimulates the appetite for sugar, causing snacking. When on a high fat, calorie deficient diet, you're still hungry sometimes but not like the cravings you have when your blood sugar is all over the place from eating a high carb diet, Your body isn't prevented by insulin from going to the 'pantry' (your fat tissue) to keep you going.

Also aerobic exercise, ie walking NOT running burns fat. The latter will cause your glycogen stores to be raided as well as stimulating cortisol to tell you that you need carbs, URGENTLY!

So how would a scientist prove conclusively that other humans are conscious and self-aware and not just very advanced automata that behave in ways which mimic consciousness and self-awareness?

No matter how much data you collect, when you're assessing behaviour there's always a subjective interpretation of how behaviours differ and what they mean in context.

Experiments like these simply disguise and hide the subjectivity.

Questions of subjective experience are absolutely unprovable scientifically.

You can collect correlations between stimuli and responses, but when you're done you have a table of correlations between stimuli and responses - and that's all.

In practice we assume that our own states correlate with behaviours, and this also applies to other humans in a straightforward way. (It often doesn't, but it's a nice thing to believe.) From there it's an easy step to making the same mapping for certain animals, albeit with more of a stretch.

But this is all unprovable, even as a hypothesis. All you can say objectively is that stimuli either match or don't match expected behaviours.

That's all that's ever on the table.
I’m not making any mistake, cheap money is absolutely the biggest problem that we have today.

My former mentor bought a house on Nantucket for $150k in 1990, sold for $3.5M earlier this year. That appreciation isn’t due to inflation or the constrained supply of homes — it’s always been constrained. It’s due to increased demand fueled by excess capital.

There’s no money in traditional banking. Even with negligible interest, the spread is very tight. The only way to compete is with volume, aggregation and fee for service, and the only way to get volume is to lower standards.

IMO, we’re in an economic time period similar to the 1860’s.
Lucas definitely had sequels in mind, but it was very much in doubt whether the movie would succeed. There was an official sequel novel by Alan Dean Foster called Splinter of the Mind's Eye released in '78, which was explicitly designed to be filmable on a very low budget if the original didn't do too well. That does feature Luke duelling Vader with his saber.
Is this accepted convention?

It sounds a lot like the explanation for chronic Lyme disease (except with nerve tissue and not fat cells), which is apparently still quite controversial despite having lots of anecdotal evidence to support it.

Also if the parasite is hiding in your fat cells, does that also mean that you can't detect it in a blood test?

Except that I don't need permission from anyone to spend some cash in my pocket.

By paying in cash, you are complying with blanket permissions established in advance by government, the banking system and the shop owner. These permissions establish stability, value and standardization thus avoiding the need to barter and negotiate amount and form of payment prior to every purchase.

Establishing the US dollar "legal tender for all debits public and private" is what gives you permission to use cash conveniently and without hassle.
Based on these emails, the very first consideration that sparked their interest-- no matter what came later-- was to deny it to their competition or drive up the price.

Just because upon investigation, YouTube actually seemed to have some value does not negate the fact that their first motive was based upon limiting competition.
So the solution to government interference in the market (by preventing adequate building from occurring) is yet more interference, and that interference will by fiat somehow lower prices, but without dramatically increasing supply.

What could possibly go wrong??
Most leftists are driven by envy; they see someone else has something they can't afford, and they feel rage. They can't afford multiple houses, so seeing people with multiple houses triggers this feeling. Fundamentally it's because they're so ego-driven they can't accept the market rewards people fairly, because doing so would require accepting that someone else deserves those houses more than they do.
On the other hand, in medieval and early modern Europe non-wild animals that did bad things were often given full trials with a judge, jury, prosecutor, defense [1]. That seems to suggest a view that animals were more than just unreasoning beasts.

Yeah, yesterday I watched Star Trek Beyond and I hated all those foreshadowing events and almost everything else. Spoilers: There's a supposedly useless artifact, which gets a big camera zoom when getting archived and oh surprise, it turns out to be a weapon of mass destruction. There's a huge space station, which gets introduced with long camera shots full of happy people and oh surprise, it's about to get attacked later. There's some relationship drama and discussion about a stupid gift, which later gets used as a tracking device to save everyone. The captain notices a motorcycle on a spaceship, which later gets used to make a stupid stunt show to save everyone. The captain, for no apparent reason, plays a video log showing the crew of an old space ship and oh surprise, later this video is used to reveal the identity of the villain. Some alien found some old music tapes from our time and we get to hear them loudly, and of course this music is later used as a super weapon to save the day. ...

Of course. Science is just a chase for grant money. Lots of entertainment money to be earned and documentaries can be made about "dark energy".

Knowledge discovery is secondary or tertiary to modern science. The field is full of greedy egomaniacs, leaving the honest scientists at a competitive disadvantage. It's about reputation and $$$.

Is there a dictionary txt file without inappropriate words?
I wrote some scripts that use /usr/share/dict/american-english to provide random words. However, a lot of the words are really inappropriate. It's become annoying because I have to run the scripts multiple times and weed out the unwanted results.

(I'm also surprised by how many inappropriate words there are that I never knew about. :-))

Is there a word list out there somewhere that's extensive like an English dictionary, but without this problem? The language needs to be English. Thank you for any tips.

It has been a few years so take this with a grain of salt but I had a shitty experience with them. I bought a system76 (around late 2013) and the keyboard was not working well (a known defect with them apparently). They emailed saying they will send a replacement keyboard and we are supposed to reinstall it ourselves (I suck at hardware). They wouldn't refund or send another laptop and I had no choice but to try and replace the keyboard myself. Left a bitter taste with how they handle their customers and I never went back to them. They have a good idea but I am not sold on the quality of their hardware.

Toronto traffic moved me from a bike to blades. On a bike you are totally at the mercy of the driver coming up from behind. With blades I could skate facing traffic and transition to the sidewalk or boulevard if oncoming traffic was too close. Also blades are harder to steal than a bike locked up where you can't keep an eye on it while at work.

In other words, capital isn't free as the parent poster suggests.
