That's cool. I realized the same thing when I was a student. I worked as a sys admin for the school's high performance computing cluster. One of the biggest parts of the job was helping researchers get their programs to compile and run. Though it was a student job, it was one of the most rewarding jobs I've had in my career.
Ever since the pandemic I seem to have been shadow banned from PreCheck, and reading their FAQ the TSA is quite clear they deliberately randomize security, even to the point that getting a PreCheck on the boarding pass isn’t guaranteed.

My dad, computer-savvy but not a programmer, taught me some very basics when I was in my early teens (late 90s). It happened to be in Java, but mostly amounted to printing text and if-statements, which could be in any language. From there I used the circa-2000 Internet to learn about programming, did some ultra-basic C and C++ Win32 programming. In high school I started making websites for friends, for tiny amounts of money. The frontend HTML was ultra-basic, but the backend was all in PHP with MySQL for storage and I wrote some fairly involved CRUD apps over years.

At the same time, I was always working in the background on various video game engines, mostly in C++. Did a little homebrew work on the PSP[1]. The culmination of all that was a friend and I making a 3D platforming video game in C++ with OpenGL, completely from scratch[2]. Switched to Linux and started making my own desktop apps for fun and trying (mostly failing) to contribute to projects. The same year I finished high school, I got a "real job" as an intern doing Java-based QA programming, thanks to an uncle who worked there and knew they needed programming interns. After two years there, I got my current job doing C systems-level programming and now I've been here for over 12 years.

I did go to a public US university to get a four-year Computer Science degree. It was a complete waste of time and money and is easily the biggest regret in my life. I was already working in industry before I even started college, for the first two years as an intern and then the other two years at my current position. I learned almost nothing in college and knew more about programming than most of my professors. I also had (and have) zero interest in computer science. It was just something I was told I had to do to get a good job. Complete waste. This was back when college was relatively cheap. I absolutely would not encourage anyone to go to college for the prices they are charging today. It's a scam. (This is all US-focused, no idea what the situation is like elsewhere.)

As for books, Code by Charles Petzold (Microsoft Press)[3] is far and away the most useful programming book I've ever read. Anyone who does anything related to programming should read it. It walks you up from the very basics of computing all the way to modern computers in a very understandable way. I read it in early high school and it definitely shaped my career.

What a fantastic example of a superiority complex.
The nature of the informal implementation of this stuff renders it so toothless, enforcement in whatever form we may see will be pretty permeable. The current CDC cards are trivial to print out on basically any laser printer. ("I have a heart condition so I can't", "heres a picture on my phone"). If you don't have a vaccine you probably just will need to have a test and a temp. screening for the most part.

However the comparison to TSA is not apt. TSA threat model is: One "terrorist" (though I'd call them "premeditated mass murderers") executing its plan is the total failure.
For the vaccine requirements, the threat model is much different. Even if you just don't bother with any of this stuff on %5 of flights, it will still have a great impact in reducing the frequency of aerospace super-spreader events.

Sars-CoV-2 infects a lot of people every day, whereas there are many, many days in a row where no terrorists bother to board a domestic flight.

In the case of 9/11 the most likely motive was retaliation. If you could ask the terrorists, they would tell you that America terrorized them first (I'm not saying that's accurate).

Just remove the upper propeller and clean the friction surface with a sponge. It probably has gunk or calcium or detergent built up on it.

While you're at it, clean the water connection mating surface between the upper drawer and the back of the dishwasher. If there's gunk there water will squirt out and the propeller will have less water pressure.

A gopro is a great tool for checking that both propellers are spinning properly.
Fun historical fact: the Netherlands didn't recognize the USSR until 1942- after strong pressure from the US of all places.
I was into computers as a kid, but in the days before the internet it was harder to really learn how they worked. I ended up doing software installs for a corp.

I had to cover a couple weeks for a coworker on vacation. His job was so tedious I wrote some shell scripts to do as much of it as I could. When he came back I showed him the scripts. Turns out they had a dev team working on that automation. They moved me over to that team and thought me to program so I could work on the project.

Two decades later, I'm still grateful.

Sorry, we've got a flood of cheap renewable energy and a flood of stimulus money coming. Together they're going to cause massive growth.

We've got three choices:

1. Harness that growth to decarbonize.
2. Let the rich accumulate it all.
3. Give it to the poor who will use it to enjoy a middle class life style. Which may or may not include a middle class carbon foot print.

Degrowth really isn't an option. The only way to achieve it is through mass unemployment, and that will just result in riots and election losses.

What degrowth advocates usually ask for is a ban on stuff like gas cars. But the past two years have shown that banning one type of economic activity just moves out else where.

From Automate.io's announcement [0], rather than Notion's, they will continue to operate independently. It doesn't appear that it's being assimilated to be a Notion-oriented product, but rather a closer relationship between the two while diversifying Notion's business.

I guess time will tell, but I imagine it's safer financially for Notion to let Automate continue operating as it has been while working more closely to bring first-class integrations into Notion and improving Notion's API.

It’s not risk free, US Treasuries are ‘risk-free’ and anything that pays a higher yield has risk. If it didn’t have risk, it would be arbitraged down to the risk-free rate.
Watched the whole thing, got really excited (as I always pre-rinse) and then discovered that my dishwasher doesn't have a pre-wash basin. More research is needed, I suppose, to convince me to move away from rinsing (which I would love, but have not been impressed with unrinsed results thus far).

UPDATE: So I just went and read through my dishwasher's manual. Turns out there is a place to dump some detergent for pre-wash after all! Instead of living next to the main basin, it's built into the exterior of the dispenser latch itself. Really, just a little concave area that allows detergent to just fall out when you close the door and get used in the first cycle. Will be experimenting with this!
I was talking in the context of 9/11, not all the yellowcake stuff. IIRC the 9/11 commission report shows some evidence that intelligence was aware of a possible attack, but the administration didn’t act. Some people took this to mean the intel was deliberately ignored, which is the part that seems conspiratorial.

They haven't taken consumer's money, but they're not without funding. I know they've had investment from the Indie Fund ( https://indie-fund.com/games ) Though I don't know if they've had other funding sources, eg the extent of self funding.

I do expect that the nature of the Indie Fund (successful artists funding other artists) has put the pressure in the correct place: Take your time and make something great. I expect other types of investment would want you to staff a larger team, not spend so much time reworking things to perfection, and get that return on investment as quickly as possible...
>The goal of terrorism is to scare people into restricting their own freedoms. It has worked amazingly well so far.

I don't think that makes sense.

If say terrorist actions resulted in the opposite, say a nation providing less security / fewer restrictions:

We would then logic it out and say the goal of terrorism is to restrict fewer freedoms and thus allow the terrorists more freedom to do whatever it is they wanted.... including more terrorism.

But that's obviously also not the point of terrorism.

Terrorists are pushing their own political agenda via violence, that's it, the result isn't necessarily some intent / scheme. If they don't get what they ultimately want, I don't think they give a damn about security or etc.

Practical use cases before theory.

I studied computer science and media, but to be honest, it was only a help AFTER I worked in my first dev job for a while.

I'm more of an inductive learner.

Also, I was neither good at math, nor a quick learner. Currently I'm helping my girlfriend with her studies and I have the feeling, learning programming languages and using them for over ten years made understanding math syntax much easier for me.

I think, if I programmed for a few years before studing CS, I'd been much more successful.
Having economists do the cost-benefit analysis of technology development is like having a physicist who studies vibrations as a concert pianist. Having a really good understanding of the theory behind cost-benefit analysis does not in any ways inform you about the actual costs or benefits of a specific decision.

Literally every decision ever involves the allocation of finite resources, that does not mean that economists are qualified to triage patients at hospitals, optimize the design of bridges, or negotiate plea deals for criminal defendants. The climate is another example of an incredibly complicated system where decision makers must have detailed understanding of the actual costs and benefits they are evaluating.
I'm sorry you feel like I'm worked up but please don't put that on me.

I mean you pretty much can do this depending on the airport. I generally show up half an hour before boarding. If it's a weird time or an airport that never has a security line it'll be 10. I don't check bags and use my phone ticket so other than an abnormally long security line there's no reason to show up more than half an hour early.
> Most people I know have one sink. Two sinks were found in rich peoples homes

My tiny student apartment had one, but other than that even the social housing I've lived in had two. My experience is limited to slightly older housing in the Netherlands and Sweden tough, so the other commenters point about smaller sinks being a consequence of cutting costs might still be valid.

Also, provided there is enough space this can be done in a single sink too: wash all items first, then rinse them. Speaking from (student) experience.
I mostly agree with this assessment although I think it's still good for such efforts to continue. I wouldn't say carbon sequestration ventures only use is marketing (it's definitely the largest use and definitely the primary disingenuous monetary driver though).

There are groups that assume fossil fuels will still continue in some capacity regardless for some time, so if technology can be developed (without generating vast amounts of emissions in the process) to reduce undesired side effects of fossil fuels continued use, it's worth exploring. It may also become useful on the global stage where certain states don't seem to care at all about developing clean energy (e.g. China). If you do develop an effective cheap way to sequester carbon emissions for fossil fuels, you have a much better chance at persuading China to use and adopt it than telling them to shutdown all their coal fire power plants.
> The Howey test doesn't apply here.

Yes, it does.

> If it's not securitized and it's not tradable, it's not a security.

Neither securitization nor marketability are requirements for something to be a security.

> FINRA is an obvious choice. They already regulate securities lending, they already regulate margin accounts, they already regulate interactions with FDIC-regulated bank accounts.

I suppose if Congress were writing a new law to specifically assign new regulatory authority for cryptocurrency lending accounts there might be an argument along those lines. But this isn't a matter of choice, its a matter of application of existing law, and if it meets the Howey test and no exception in existing law, such as assignment to a different regulator, exists, its an SEC-regulated security.
You could always tell when a company switch their priority from B2C to B2B. Notion felt different when it was first released but in the last few years new competitors were able to replicate what they've done and make it better and faster (e.g. Craft) while notion focused their energy on teams/enterprise features.

Why argue global warming is not a massive existential threat? Both are huge problems, we have the resources to begin tackling/experimenting on both areas, so why downplay solutions to either? The sea is expanding in size as it heats, more ice is melting as it heats as well. This will devastate billions of coast-adjacent humans. It's pretty hard to argue against preventing catastrophic sea-level rise, never mind acidification also being a huge problem.
People have been getting sick literally since the dawn of man. I knew many co-workers who'd come in with a cold or a fever and get the rest of the office sick. Now, there's a virus that's so dangerous you need a test to know if you're even sick with it but people are demanding everyone stays home so nobody catches it. If you don't want to catch it, stay home, but don't ask myself or others to change their behavior

> It seems that this would never work in a fast moving and fast scaling environment

A fast moving environment by definition would never even consider mainframe computing. And most places who would consider mainframes are already at whatever scale they will be at the conceivable future.

I used to work for a public healthcare company in the US that used mainframes extensively and when I was there we legally couldn't open any new locations. The only way to grow the business at all was to acquire existing ones, a multi-year process. So any changes or integrations typically had 12-18 months of lead time, and this was after everything was negotiated and signed. We typically heard about it a few months before that so sometimes up to two years.

And as you can imagine with the amount of red tape and regulation around healthcare, and the requirements around being on the stock exchange, change control was a pretty arduous process.

> exemption from registration is functionally an exemption from most parts of the act

The commercial paper registration exemption exists because the Fed regulates it under the Bank Act. If the Fed won't accept your CP at its discount window, the § 3(a)(2) registration exemption doesn't apply [1].

And that aside, I personally think the question of whether Lend is a security is a red herring thrown out by Coinbase. According to Coinbase, the SEC said "they consider Lend to involve a security." Not that it is a security.

It is much more likely that Lend crosses over into bank- or broker-dealer-like activity. This hypothesis is strengthened by the SEC warning Coinbase and not Gemini, who are regulated as a trust company by New York, or Kraken, who are regulated as a bank by Wyoming.

> act does not mention commercial paper

The Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which created the SEC, absolutely does, under the section titled "exception for certain bank activities" [2].
