Because when we turn responsibilities over to the government in the U.S., they often have a tendency to do a really bad job of it. How was your last visit to the DMV? Every time I go, while I'm waiting and waiting and waiting, all I can think about is how many glaring, easy-to-fix inefficiencies I would fix "if I were in charge." I would imagine that anyone who has tried to get unemployment benefits in California over the last year might be a little less than enthusiastic about turning more responsibilities over to the government.

We have no idea how the Hebrew tetragrammaton YHWH is supposed to be pronounced. And there are no etymological common roots between this semitic root and the attested Indo-European origin of Iove.

It's possible that the Yahweh vocalization has been influenced by the Roman Catholic church in order to "romanize" christianity
This is one of the reasons I switched from Android to iPhone. The phones are just higher quality, last longer and get software updates for longer.

I had like 3 Android phones in a row who's GPS would start acting up after 1.5-2 years. My Apple devices are fantastic.

Overall, the largest benefit of Apple devices is that they just work. I can buy them and not have to worry about them.
Those are not equivalent at all!

Legally, Alice does not own the vehicle in that scenario, and most/all states are quite clear on that. Bob had no legal right to transfer the vehicle to Alice. Alice is committing a crime by possessing stolen property the moment she is aware or reasonably should be aware it is stolen. The police do not seize it at all, and do not use Civil Asset Forfeiture to return it to it’s owner either.

Bob committed a crime of fraud and selling stolen property against Alice in your scenario, as well as the crime of grand theft auto (assuming the vehicle is worth much) against the owner. Alice would be committing the crime of possession of stolen property if she kept the vehicle after learning or if she reasonably should have known it was stolen.

The police, assuming they find the vehicle impound it and/or notify the owner to come pick it up.

Also, the owner is responsible in most states for the vehicle until a legal transfer has occurred, meaning they are on the hook for impound fees, towing fees, parking tickets, etc. in most states.

Civil Asset Forfeiture is when property is charged with the crime of being an ill gotten gain/related to a crime. It is then ‘held’ or seized like a criminal, except not being a person, it cannot defend itself, and has no rights. It is a rather bizarre legal fiction. It forces the owner to go to court to ‘bail it out’ or defend it against the charges, which is difficult for many people to do, and most criminals wouldn’t even try.

How would you show that your Yacht was paid for from legitimate proceeds beyond a reasonable doubt for instance, unless you kept detailed proceeds and an army of accountants to trace the funds? Most criminals (and many regular folks), don’t keep the records to do that anyway.

It is used when, say, the police can’t prove someone committed a crime, but they are wealthy and have assets, and even if they can’t prove they committed a crime, they know it will be almost impossible to prove it WASN’T from money earned from crime! So easy payday

I worked as 'the software guy' on a big customer infra project where I'd be 1/4th of my time on customer sites reproducing problems, narrowing their cause, asking users to show me how they broke it, testing exhaustively and exhaustingly new releases or quickfixes w/ specific complaining person at customers' site, writing detailed descriptions of new versions, relentlessly opening tickets as a customer advocate but also triaging my time and tickets. The rest of my time would be fixing some, pushing colleagues to fix others, documenting, reproducing, proposing changes to avoid whole classes of problems... And implementing features (either asked by customer and I had time, or new feature idea that we'd fit in customer's budget twice - once as a prototype/PoC and once as a qualified feature).

It was one of the best experiences in my life and 'software' in that system was quite the gamut. I loved over anything being the voice of the customer, bringing back some reality in an org that can be quite bureaucratic, myopic to real needs and forgetful of problems.

It also was the time I spent the most political capital and when I discovered I was appreciated but to a point and that you can be right and lose, and that some people feel the customer is 'the other team' and you play 'for them'. Quite eye opening about what happens when words (customer obsession) meet KPIs or actual incentives...

>> As a practical matter, I'd say it's more along the lines of just how do you control a crazy acting person without hurting them. A certain number of them are going to die, there's no way around it.

That’s… quite a summary of a cop putting his knee on someone’s neck while people all around screamed at him that the man was suffering, and staying in that position until the man died. Floyd was already on the ground and had four armed policemen surrounding him - how was he a threat, or someone who couldn’t just be hauled up and cuffed / placed in a police car? Compare it for example to the almost-courteous way Dylan Roof - who committed a crime far worse than anything Floyd ever did - was treated by the police when they finally caught up to him.

I’m sorry but you sound like a right wing TV host doing their best to paper over the truth / make it about anything else but the inherent racism of American policing. Perhaps if Floyd was an aberration your point might hold - but this is clearly a pattern, as we’ve seen over and over. The only way to solve the problem is by understanding its roots, not blasé statements reducing it to statistics and a “crazy acting man” who couldn’t be subdued without hurting him.
The same problem of the house price to income ratio shows there is as much of a housing shortage in rural America as well. "Solving" housing by moving all high CoL people to rural America is just going to price out all those with lower CoL area salaries. Our vacancy rate nation wide is low, likely well within the frictional margins that need to exist for a healthy market.
Yes but what's a 'clean-room browser'? The article doesn't explain what that term means.
250 probably isn't enough for highways and long distance riding in the US.

For example, Texas State Highway 130 has an 85 mph speed limit and traffic typically rolls along at 5-10 mph above that. There isn't a lot of headroom for passing a car going 80 mph on most 250cc bikes.

If I were buying a bike today, I don't think I would consider anything that didn't have anti-lock brakes.

My last bike was a KLR650 and it was pretty crude. I sold it and gave up on motorcycles because drivers around where I live are too distracted. I rode 35 years accident free and decided to quit before my luck ran out. I do miss it though...

Well yea. The longer the lifespan of a phone, the higher the resale value, and the higher the retail price you can support. If you want to sell at AAPL prices, you should be able to support devices for AAPL durations.

It's fun to blame the super rich but I'd say it's fundamentally due to a combination of population shift from rural to urban areas

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/urban-and-rural-populatio...

and normal homeowners stopping densification out of fear of reducing the value of their own home or just not wanting the riff-raff living near them. These people are really the ones doing a directly harmful thing for pure selfish greed. They're not super-rich, they're just people's parents. But they're trying to make money by excluding others instead of doing anything useful.

Is it? Are you taking into account battery degradation from 1 cycle every day? The vast majority of battery chemistries won't last more than 3-4 years under those circumstances, and those that would are either much more expensive or experimental.

As of now storing 10kWh at 1kW costs around 1000$ from the cells alone. If you're changing them every 3 years then you have to spend 10 000$/kW over 30 years whereas nuclear is the same price per kW for a 30 year period.

If you don't take that into account then sure.
Great advice and great job repeating the manipulative framing of “if you’re not a pedophile, you have nothing to fear.”

Also, if you have anything that may be matched by unknowable and unverifiable matching hashes and algorithms provided by multiple nation states now or ever in the future, including but not limited to political activists, protests, anti-animal-abuse activists, climate activists, and select ethnicities, or copyright violations of any kind… switch off iCloud sync.

Until that switch gets ignored.

This cannot and will not be limited to CSAM. The matching is much more complicated than “hashes of existing images.”

The prices are absurd on the surface, but hardly anyone pays full sticker, even the uninsured. Accounting for taxes, Americans pay less for healthcare than in the UK. The NHS is free but its paid for in part by higher taxes for everyone. Canada has free healthcare but a lot is excluded too. The US is the world leader in diagnosis . world leader in benign biopsies. The fear of litigation probably leads to a lot of unnecessary tests and more costs.
Not sure how that is marketing to criminals. Looks like they are selling privacy, which is something many people desire, not just criminals.
Remote work could solve a lot of this. I would love to live in a more rural area with cheaper housing.

"... a long distance from any of the amenities that most Americans now demand."

Like what? Many amenities and services have been moving to the at-home or online model for decades - arcades, movies, shopping, car buying, telehealth, etc. It seems there should be less reliance on physical amenities now than in the past.

We are starting to movement from HCOL and high tax areas. Companies are moving for tax and regulatory purposes and most people seem happy to follow when the cost of living is significantly lower.
Interesting. Dacia is in the Renault family. I enjoy seeing what Renault have been doing in Europe, though as an American it is mostly watching with envy. Their closest relative in the US is Nissan America and they are just awful and extremely out of touch. (They barely sell the Leaf and still haven't really brought any other of Nissan's EV efforts to the US market, and certainly don't have anything like the Renault Zoe much less a Dacia type low end model.)

We are using Clickhouse combined with GDPR's Data Deletion Requests. We store the user-ids in a separate system, and run the ALTER/DELETE statements once per week. Works pretty smooth, though I would prefer some more automation within Clickhouse for them.

This is a popular narrative promoted by the US medical industry. However, it doesn’t stand up to scrutiny. Just the first debunking I find in a google search is https://www.mhaonline.com/blog/healthcare-debates-funding-me...
This comment of yours however does smack of that run of the mill American xenophobia, "all it takes is a few YouTube searches to witness the level of violence that exists in Russia that far exceeds anything you'll see in the US. Russia really is something else in that regard." All it takes is a few YouTube searches to find some really fucked up footage of cops violating Americans' rights every day.

According to people I talked with, who did analysis for "Green hydrogen" as storage method, assuming Poland - we would need something along the line of 150% peak production, locally, before it started moving the needle at all - and I'm not sure of this wasn't in combination with nuclear (though limited by the idiotic free market on electricity).

All of that assumes that the demand doesn't go up... Which is not compatible with things like climate goals

What "don't tax the rich" policies? 61% of Americans pay zero income tax.

Why are the rich getting tremendously rich? Because the Federal Reserve has printed money at an astonishing rate, which inflates asset prices. Who owns the most assets? The rich do.

People are so focused on taxation (because it's something the average poor or middle class understands) when the real issue is the Fed (something most Americans aren't even aware of).
Money supply in theory is chasing actual economic effects such as growth, so your view of just one side is not very meaningful. The flaw is in considering assets static.

For anyone interested in a slightly different aspect of this:

A MIRI talk mentioned a hypothetical scenario when an AI gets duplicated. In this case the AI has a very high certainty about the state of its own duplicate. Also Nate argues that many everyday problems humans face are Newcomb-like. (And of course he talks about an AI that knows that humans know its source code.)

This statement may miss or minimize the argument for / against participation in a gang, especially without the presence of a paternal figure in a person's life, especially a young male's life ... who then becomes a father ... who then is removed from life due to decisions in circumstances ... whose child then grows up without a paternal figure, who then finds solace in a gang... who then...

See the cycle?

And then there's the argument for why gangs exist in the first place, or other small, localized militias providing protection and a place of belonging.

Neither of our political parties is _actually_ pro universal health-care. The farthest left we go is neoliberal, and let's be honest: that's not a realistic solution to anything other than expanding the wealth gap and enabling the ultra-rich.

And there lies the fundamental socially-embedded racism inherent in the idea of 'black'. That somehow, having even a fraction of an ancestral African lineage makes a person 'black' - it taints them, stains them and they are automatically labelled as that part, even though they may be 95% other lineages.

For clarity: Why isn't a person who has even 1/64th of a 'white' heritage automatically termed 'white'? It makes exactly as much sense that way. Yet we choose the other.

It's clear that an AI cannot know about this cultural bias. So how on earth can it map an x-ray to the imaginary idea of 'black'?
It happens in countries which don't allow that too.
What is the actual money supply though - if I earn 1k and put it in a bank and it gets loaned out to someone else is there now 2k in circulation since my money is insured?

Only a teensy tiny portion of "value" in the economy is actually on printed bills - but even the abstract value we can track won't tell the whole story.

Your original comment asserted that cars are essential for getting around and accomplishing tasks that an average person needs to do. My comment was refuting that assertion. Now you are talking about what constitutes a walkable city which is a different discussion.

> So what are these busses and ambulances driving on, exactly?

Roads. I never proposed getting rid of those! I want to get rid of parking which again, is a different discussion. But it is surely one informed by our original topic which was whether cars are required for daily life.

> I think you are describing lots of places where walkability has been achieved while maintaining perfectly functional road networks.

Of the three I listed, only The Netherlands fits that description. There are disincentives to owning a car there, like limits on parking spaces. I believe true walkability and livability is only achieved when we modify traffic signaling and road infrastructure to prefer pedestrians, transit, and bikes over personal vehicles. Or if space allows, provide completely separate road networks for the modes so there are no conflicts, with more direct routes given to transit, peds and bikes. We also need to remove parking. The Netherlands has done these things.

Pittsburgh and Toronto are not there yet. They are car-oriented cities with a transit system grafted on top. I'd be happy to go into more detail but we've outgrown the original topic of our discussion.
Because it's not an unlimited, infinite resource. They are physical systems with unsolvable bottlenecks, and as soon as you release pressure in one place, another crops up. By making it absolutely free, the cost to a rider for an inconsequentially short trip is zero, but the rider using it for that short of a trip makes the system as a whole less usable for other riders because the system is full at a chokepoint. This happened in Boston on the Green line. Riding the T was free for students, but the number of young healthy students using that perk to ride 1 station overwhelmed the system, causing it to be harder for everyone else that had to use the system for commuting. I support better access to public transportation, but free has issues is its own.
>The work of submerging air at atmospheric pressure vastly exceeds the potential energy value extractable from the oxygen in terms of ATP. He's using it to float.

he is wearing some armor, definitely head helmet - that allows to balance the floatation, and would be beyond most human capabilities without the goatskin. So he achieves 2 goals simultaneously - extra air for prolonged diving as well as diving while donning some armor. That goatskin is like 20-30 liters - good for several minutes of breathing and those 20-30kg of extra floatation allow for the typical armor/chainmail and weapons.

There is no issues with holding it submerged like other commenters suggest as he keeps it under the body, so the main force of those 20-30kg pushes onto his body up, and if anything it is very easy to belt it to the body so it wouldn't need any hands involvement to be maintained under the body.

There is also no issues with drawing breath as suggested by others as the goatskin is under the same water pressure as his lungs.
