You can only do that at exchanges that are seriously exposed to systemic Tether risk and will also collapse if USDT goes down. So even if you're right, you won't get paid on USDT/USD swaps. Shorting USDT at Bitfinex is like shorting Caesars chips at Caesars. News flash: if Caesars goes bankrupt just which cashier do you think is gonna give you which dollars?
Maybe for the relative 1 socket / 2 socket differences.
Control is a part of ownership. If you don't control how something is used and by whom, you don't really own it. So either using it in unauthorized ways is in a manner theft, or Apple's "ownership" is not real ownership. I'm not sure what the solution is, but IP is a tricky concept no matter your position.
The current stats include a ridiculously large number of Asians, and the changes are racially motivated according to the proponents' own words.

It doesn't sound like the system was perfect, I'm all for reform that helps everyone. Hurting Asians to create equality isn't it.
So its ok to drag down smart kids with "You're not Asian in kindergarten" or some other bias? To provide better-prepared kindergarteners with more public money and better schools, for life, based on a kindergarten test, is what the objection is based on.
To quote the tutorial you linked:

> The syntax for labels and optional arguments is confusing, and you may often wonder when to use ~foo, when to use ?foo and when to use plain foo. It's something of a black art which takes practice to get right.

So I don't think it's just you.
I retired a few years ago on my savings, but I won the lottery as an early Airbnb employee (and I only recently cashed out). I've worked for several high-flying SV startups, and one BigCo, and startup multiple of my own startups (which all failed). I'm around 35 y/o now. I really grew to despise the whole of SV culture, the various get rich quick schemes based on screwing your customers, and capitalism is general. These days my only ambition is to farm on my homestead/commune, live as cheaply as possible, and avoid consumerism as much as I can. I still love working on software, am pretty active on various open source projects, am writing another book, but I don't feed the beast anymore.

Retirement is great and you shouldn't let anyone talk you out of it. The guys at the top of the pyramid aren't working very hard, so why should you?

Yes! Now they can fail all of the kids equally instead of possibly helping a small subset who did well on a test once.
I made a spelling correction: https://github.com/wimpysworld/quickemu/pull/66
I am all for supportive programs for really smart kids. FWIW my kids go to NYC public schools. We did not go with gifted and talented because we didn't really like the structure of the program. If the city ends up providing REAL enrichment for gifted kids past 3rd grade it will be a net gain for everyone.

It is pretty ridiculous how pervasive test prep is for pre-school age kids to get them into the G&T program.
I am generally quite liberal but I strongly disagree with he current strain of progressive education reform. There are inherent differences within the capabilities of students, we can detect these early, and we should use them to provide students with appropriate challenges. Our education system should provide avenues for top students to excel, ad hopefully these top students become the people who create businesses or invention that improve the world.
I can see this for some jobs. Retire from the army and suddenly you are not jumping out of planes anymore, but programming? Nothing is stopping you from doing that post retirement, and you get to work on whatever you want.
> 11. One of the biggest differences between a senior engineer and a junior engineer is that they’ve formed opinions about the way things should be

I found that another thing which separates a junior from a senior is tendency to give up and cut corners. Stuck a wall making that integration test work? get back to it after the current task, don't settle on manual testing.

But maybe that's a trait of bad developers, rather than junior ones.
More info please, how was your experience
Totally based on my experiences and opinion, this is because our society has very little appetite for prioritizing education and children over economics.

In reality, we should have more programs like this and investing more resources in developing alternative, public paths for educating children. Public education itself is relatively young in human history. Invest in R&D.

But that money would need to come from coffers already being drained for the sake of short term profits.

Pay the teachers.
Good question. I was fired, so I guess my case doesn't apply to OP. I also had enough in the bank that I don't need to follow orders from someone who's never made a mix tape, which is what would happen if I tried to rejoin the workforce.

I know, first-world problems.
Joined as senior software engineer when the company was under 10 employees and got about 1% (took almost no salary). To be fair I did a massive amount of contributions, so the company got a really good deal in my opinion. I was paid $60k a year for a while, when my market rate could have been easily $300k. I shaped the product and execution in a much more significant way than the founders. These guys are now sitting on mid 9 figures, crazy.

Stayed with that employer for the entire grant and left after about 5 years. The company today is worth a few billion dollars, and that value is based on the latest preferred share price, so obviously it assumes everything goes well and it will sell high enough that the liquidation preferences won’t be exercised and everything will convert to common. It could easily still all go to $0, I don’t count on it much.

The liquid portfolio is instead through boring saving, investing and fairly frugal lifestyle.
The pizzeria I use most frequently used to have a website, but it's now either gone or undiscoverable by search. Facebook comes up in search, but it's good deliver services like GrubHub at the top.

The GrubHub result is the most frustrating, because the pizzeria does it's own direct delivery too. And if you get it delivered through GrubHub, or even call the place via the # GrubHub lists, GrubHub gets a fee if some sort.

Google at least still shows their business listing in the right margin of search results though, so hopefully people mostly use that.
Optimizing your time so that you can live your life the way you want to is a great idea. I daydream of having a personal chef so I can spend more time reading, studying, or any other activity that brings meaning to my life. But let's be honest, most of that time that people are freeing up with Uber Eats is spent scrolling through social media or watching Netflix.
Yes, that’s while I don’t frame as disorder but rather explain order in terms of the micro state-macro state relation. While a built lego set and a crystal are well ordered and have low entropy, order and entropy aren’t the same thing.
Probably not, but I also have noch chance against mustard gas and bleeding out seems at least preferable.

Drones are extremely loud, especially those that fly that fast and small. If you have finely mashed net or large piece of cloth, drone already get into trouble.
Fail in what way?
Was the study ever replicated?
I think it depends on whether or not you are operating in good faith and you think he foundation is too. It sounds to me like people are attributing bad faith to this whole misunderstanding.

It’s unfortunate that this has become our mode of conflict resolution: blog posts, public apologies that don’t grovel enough and a trivial issue that people have turned into a political football so they can run that shit into the end zone and spike the hell out of it.

Grievance culture is weak, and frankly, dishonorable.
Well, it appears you may be right, there. As of last month, I read the consensus was Democrats wanted SALT repealed. It looks like that won’t be the case now, as the spending plan gets whittled down — now it’s looking more like a raised limit, at most.

Could you share a link to that random allocation of students into regular and advanced? Sounds fascinating, though not surprising: imagine the confidence hit of being told by the system you're not advanced.
What is early? What is stopping working? I semi-retired at 44, but I am still working as a contract programmer and bill for about 20-25 hours a week.

I worked a ho-hum programming job for nearly 20 years (yes, just the one), feeling miserable for at least the last 3. There was no "cashing out", though when the company sold to private investors I got something like an extra 75% of a year of pay. It wasn't that money, but saving (index fund investing) all along that would have let me say "to heck with it, I can retire today" (albeit with a slightly reduced standard of living).

Instead, I waited until something part time & much more fulfilling came my way. Now I get to work on open source all day, or as little as I want, and I get paid for a substantial chunk of it. To my surprise, working 50-60% as long each week not only means I don't have to do dip into investments, but I can still add to my investments.

Now, the timing of this change was not great, because 5 months later COVID hit, so the travel aspects of my new life haven't materialized in the way I thought they would. When I start travelling as freely as I thought I would when I left traditional work in late 2019, that's when I hope to truly feel semi-retired.

When will I fully retire? Not while I can get paid to work on open source software, largely on my own terms. When will I stop working on open source? Hopefully not anytime soon.
If a school system or program doesn't have enough black kids in it, it is by definition segregated.

School antisegregation laws care nothing for intent, only for effect.
Have you tried Modafinil mixed with alcohol?
I did it (when I was about 21) and I would not recommend it. They are not the most compatible chemicals; to me, It took a very large amount of alcohol to get the same effect and the hangover would be very powerful.
If USDT blows up FTX goes down with it, and they won't pay you out. That's just a 4-5% annual donation to SBF.
For those who dont have the time to listen, this is basically the article but in audio format, from what I can tell.
Subtitle: "Students who are currently enrolled in gifted and talented classes will not be affected. But the highly selective and racially segregated program will be replaced for incoming students."

The reasons can be debated, but it's a fact that on IQ tests, American blacks score about 1 standard deviation (15 points) below whites. A common threshold for a gifted program is an IQ of 130, 2SD above average. If you demand that all racial groups be proportionally represented, you cannot have a gifted program. You will not get proportional representation among FAANG programmers either. In general, America needs to make a choice between non-discrimination and government-enforced equal outcomes. Charles Murray's book "Facing Reality: Two Truths about Race in America" (2021) discusses this. He co-authored "The Bell Curve" (1994).
It's sad that Qemu is so hard to use that scripts like this are necessary.

All this autodetection of the OS to apply tweaks and workarounds to make the OS run properly should ideally be eliminated entirely, and if that really isn't possible, it should be part of Qemu itself rather than requiring a special wrapper script to apply the right flags to make things work.
I personally see it as an alternative. There have been moments where I didn't have much time to go for groceries and I have a Gorillas depo nearby. Literally 6 minutes delivery.

Now, I can tell, I wouldn't go regular on this. I compared the prices of the same items from Gorillas or Flink with branches (Germany) like Lidl or even Rewe (which is usually more expensive) and those deliveries are way more expensive. At least 10-15% more.

Now, in the end is a money/time trade... But also you earn money while investing your time, so it's up to you ;)
The current progressive movement is highly illiberal
We are all different in our expectations and desires. Ofcourse, It would be great to have that financial independence to say I don't "need" to work anymore for money. However, I am happy to work with computers at my job that pays money, be with my family and play with my little boy while not working, and do wood working in spare time(3 hours a week). Little bit of everything makes you appreciate their value. I for one would be easily overwhelmed if I could do woodworking the whole time, or watching my little boy the whole time(I love him, but I love him more when he is social with his friends at day care and I am there for him when he is home).

If I had a way to make more money without losing the ^ balance, I'd jump on it. But, I am not running crazy behind any one of those.

I realise what I said would probably not make sense to me from 10 years ago - it was all about fun, and money then.
Equality, to the priviledged, looks like persecution.

That many Asian kids got a golden ticket, and now won't get a golden ticket, seems like not such a problem to those who were denied any such chance at a golden ticket for generations.
Not according to German law.
I do. Hence the importance of OLED.

Suppressing knockoffs is often the reason behind (and something hidden within) laws and treaties against counterfeits. Clear knockoffs, whose buyers know they are knockoffs, are not counterfeits any more than Monopoly money is counterfeit currency.
It's also a fact that American blacks have several standard deviations less wealth than whites.

If wealth ultimately is the driver for such a disparity, and education is the gateway to said wealth, you're effectively trapping people.
My brother teaches at an exam school in Boston which similarly had its requirements dropped recently, and it seems like a lot of these changes are poorly thought out and done for optics. Sure, some of the exam schools in BPS are overwhelmingly White/Asian, but the school he teaches at is mostly Black/Asian/Hispanic.

While he was previously able to teach classes of bright, focused students, now they need to break up fights of unruly students and divert their attention to the ones that are struggling. I imagine the parents that can afford it will likely remove their kids from the public school system if quality continues to drop, which will only hurt funding.

The real issue is a much more complex socioeconomic problem, but that's hard to solve, so it's easier to point the finger at schools.
Interesting. I was always under the impression that you can run a macOS VM as long as it is on Apple hardware. But this says "that is already running the Apple Software".

Does that mean Apple Hardware -> Linux -> macOS is not allowed? Or is it simply saying that all 3 copies must be on the same machine? So you can run Apple Hardware -> Linux -> macOS as your "primary copy" and two more macOS VMs on that same Apple Hardware?
Turning Cybersecurity into Profit
The problem for NYC apparently is that the largest ethnic group in the program was Asian.
My understanding is they're relying on inertial navigation and water pressure sensor (to know the current depth) - you could turn on active sonar to map the sea floor, but that kind of ruins the stealth thing, and you can't look out a window.
If there's a submerged obstacle that isn't mapped, especially another sub, you won't know it's there until it's too late. Which is pretty much what happened in the HMS Vanguard and Le Triomphant collision.
Perhaps more than just 'expectation' i.e. those who feel they are special and talented may actually strive harder. Maybe a bit of pressure as well.

But there's a lot of truth to this I think people should cognize.

That said, I'm wary of NYs move, in the later years of high school, providing programs where kids can be among other kids that really want to learn is powerful.

At my school, they didn't actually 'vet' students in the advanced program. You just did it if you want. I think that's fair.

You can have Algebra 101 and Algebra 101++, which covers more ground, at an accelerated pace, and it's your choice to join. I think that would work.
>It's long been a fallacy that you can sort young kids into high or low performers.

As someone with teaching experience, I find this incredibly hard to believe if you were sorting by raw talent on not something that can be gamed like basing it on grades/good behavior. Certain students have a better natural aptitude for certain subjects.
So it is using Wine then and it is not officially supported?
Totally agree about Desktop Applications. On the other side, C# is becoming great language to develop for web applications with Asp.Net Core.
You realize a lot of those Asians are from poor, immigrant families, right? You ever spend time in Flushing?

Rich white liberals should not be tearing them down in the name of "antiracism".
> I dont understand why there arent more of them.

From my perspective, because they suck. The execution is poor. Your experience may have been better, but mine was one of missed opportunity. The course material was virtually the same, i.e., not challenging and thus insufferably boring. A dozen years wasted, GATE/TAG or not.
Highest grossing doesn't tell the whole story.

The highest grossing can be achieved with good timing , a huge marketing campaign and an all-star cast/director.

To really gather a sense of how much a movie influences the popular culture a better metric is people coming back to it to re-watch it.

So Repeat ticket sales (same person going to theatre multiple times) + DVD/BluRay sales + cable programming + TV + SVOD + piracy

Thanks for your perspective! I always love hearing what finance folks think about all this.
Exactly, you always got to have a middle man party. Bitcoin/Crypto is the only way that you can cut out that middleman, because you can directly view the blockchain for confirmations etc.
Private schools are great. They keep rich people snobby. How else are we gonna detect the asshats if they don't tribalise themselves at Poly Prep?
so much for decentralization...

> If a school system or program doesn't have enough black kids in it, it is by definition segregated.

No, it is literally not "by definition" segregated. Using the phrase 'by definition' is not that powerful a modifier that every word that surrounds it suddenly becomes true.

That's the most nonsense thing ever. Secondly, read the line I quoted:

> highly selective and racially segregated program

The program is not racially segregated. The NYTimes just needed to sneak in the word segregation because it's a very strong explosive word. To do that, it hammered it incorrectly to a place in a sentence which gives the impression the program itself is racially segregated.
A culture that highly values academic excellence for its progeny achieves it at disproportionate rates. I am shocked.
Unless it’s consumed by an AI. Which I don’t fully understand but am comfortable assuming that the AI might be able to ‘teach’ itself to consume an API.
The problem for Bill de Blasio....
I think you can, in some (many?) cases. Whether you should or not (or... how you do it) is perhaps the deeper question.

My parents were pushed by others around them to get me recognized as gifted/advanced (or whatever the term in the 70s was). Other parents (and my parents' parents) all recognized something different, so my parents went to the school, right before I started kindergarten. They got a reassuring pat on the head by the teacher and principal. "Everyone thinks their child is unique/special/advanced, especially their first, but trust us, everyone needs this..."

School started on Wednesday, and Friday afternoon they got a call saying "lowercased should be accelerated a grade or two - he's too advanced". So I was moved up a grade - that's the only lever the school had for "advanced" and, to my knowledge, I was the only one they'd done that for in the 20+ years the school had been open. I later learned it might have been 2 grades but my dad was concerned about socialization issues. And... 1 grade was bad enough in that respect.

There were multiple programs for "behind" students - kids were taken out of class for directed reading programs, other counseling sessions, etc. But there was nothing for 'advanced' kids in our area for several years. So yeah, I think there should definitely be more recognition and support for 'gifted' students in some capacity, even if it's subtle. Perhaps moreso if it's subtle. Being visibly 'different' is difficult for a lot of kids.
They probably determined that their older workers were more likely to refuse the vaccine. Another way to discriminate against a protected class.
The Parquet support, with the ability to handle row groups, skip over data not of interest to a query and aggregations that will likely be 3 orders of magnitude quicker are a pretty unique feature.

Also, there's no need to write any code here, it's a CLI app. There's much less that could go wrong versus rolling your own.
Wish there was more philosophy of science and exploration into what "technology" means in CS programs. Maybe get undergrads to read Crime and Punishment by Foucault. Not saying he's the be-all end-all but just that perspective of seeing technology as subjective and situated in historical contexts.

Technology in CS ends up instead being taught to be magical progress fuel that brings us towards the inevitable future rather than tools built by people with access to capital in order to achieve specific ends
Usually yes. They are running in a completely different process than the browser.
> NAT being essential for security

That's not what I said at all. Read it again. NAT is a more foolproof kind of security.

NAT is effectively a pretty good firewall isn't it? How would you access a device behind NAT?
I quit tech, moved to a rural area, and bought some farmland at the beginning of the year. got a couple different jobs to learn how to do things. first building polebarns and then framing houses. got to journeyman in framing last month and quit. finishing up my first barn and now i am getting ready to build a greenhouse over the winter. been preparing the soil. will be ready for planting next year.

technically i didnt really quit working. but rather i am free to pursue what i want to do. for example im going to build my own house. and grow and sell organic food. i want to develop technology to improve farming. i enjoy designing and building things in all sorts of mediums. i like working, but i have an entrepreneurial spirit. and in order to feel fulfilled i have to pursue my own ventures.
This seems to be a "present" of an older generation that fundamentally didn't put in any effort to understand their successors. With exception to the newest generation that now believes that racism is everywhere.

That said, I think logistics of education today can supply almost everyone with a high quality education anyway and the role to connect people moves from universities to other places. So less elite and more broad high quality education wouldn't hold anyone back and is a better approach.
