>I think becoming more self-sufficient is definitely a good thing

Why? I live in Paris, and get my food (vegetable, fruits, bread, eggs, peas...) from an AMAP. It's like a coop for about 100 families where we pay the farmer one year in advamce for their whole annual production. It's cheaper than most supermarkets, it's local and organic, it's self sufficient (no competition, we pay the farmer well, according to their actual costs). We only have to organize the distribution weekly (take a few hours per year for every member). I bet the farmer will do better for our organization than any "self sufficient" family.
Subjective experience can both be something real and also not something special in some magical sense.

If subjective experience were really just an illusion, why would you care about what happens to yourself - hell, why would you even have a concept of 'yourself'?
It sounds more like someone forgot to lock their laptop and a colleague/ family member took this as an opportunity to install this Chrome plugin.
You misunderstood, parent is complaining about Go, not about Rust. In Go you would have to use a pointer to represent Option<T>, which makes code really awkward.

Go serialization really has quite a few issues apart from default initialization. Configuration by somewhat weird struct tag strings which are only evaluated/validated at runtime, de/serialization is all done via reflection (unless you want to use code generation), ...
Yeah I know a lot of FAANG people getting 500-600K packages. Makes it hard to even think about startups.
> You leave out North Korea, Venezuela etc. All centrally planned.

You've clearly never been to Venezuela.
I think there are many other companies now paying or exceeding FAANG. Some of them are - Stripe, Databricks, Coinbase, Dropbox, Uber, Lyft, Twitter (to some extent), DoorDash, Airbnb, etc

We no longer live in a FAANG only world. FAANG companies are now trying exceptionally hard to hire talent. A lot of the FAANG perks were in-office, as the world continues to accept the remote first worker, they are only going to have a harder time.

As I work from home, I've come to appreciate different aspects of my work, than what I enjoyed in-office.
ha! I've seen Excel installed on a medical instrument after the lab technicians realized it was running Windows.
> it has a long history of suspicion of national government IDs.

I think it's more that the people in power and their supporters have had reason to make government IDs hard to come by for the transient, poor, and other undesirables. Or they simply don't want to 'muh tax dollars' going to the 'lazy bum' on the street getting a government ID card. I think there's also been a fair amount of pushing by the auto industry to make drivers licenses the default ID, too - starting in the fifties you really saw the "you have a car if you're important/Made It" attitude creep into US society.

By the way: did you notice that the politicians shouting loudest about illegal immigration tend to be associated with industries and states that use lots of illegal immigration (like, saaaaay, farming?)

It's not about stopping illegal immigration. It's about them having power over their workers. "Illegals" don't talk to police, public health officials, DAs, OSHA, etc about pesky things like missing/deducted paychecks, workplace safety, violence/theft, etc.

"They're stealing your jobs" is just how they sell it to Joe Q. Public, because one way to win someone over is to tell them that there's someone further down the ladder than them.
> Don't be pedantic, you can see what I'm getting at here

No, I don't. Because there is no reasonable on topic argument you could be getting at.

> A lot more US citizens have a driver's license than a passport. It's the most common form of identification and if it doesn't specify citizenship then there will be millions of people who don't have any picture ID that can prove their citizenship status.

Which is fine in the context of voter ID, because presenting ID to vote is notionally to confirm that the person presenting to vote is the person registered (authentication), not that the person registered is allowed to vote (authorization).

Authorization of registered voters and removal/disqualification of unauthorized voters is, even in Voter ID systems and proposals, handled separately from voter ID, typically by the same kind of processes used without voter ID.
I don't know if there is, but if there is also a "foreign real estate investment sops up housing supply" and/or "makes prices slow down supply churn" then inflation might making housing LESS affordable, by making it nominally cheaper for foreign investment participate in the market.

Why is this being downvoted? Levels.fyi and Blind are great tools. Blind is toxic because posters are obsessive about their TC, but I feel that's a side-affect of not letting people talk about money in their real lives, so they need to be anonymous and vent.
> Environmentalism is unfortunately a liberal issue

Only the "performative" kind. Conservatives are quite in favor of nuclear power for example, which is arguably the most "environmental" thing one can be in favor of. What they are against are reductions in business caused by higher energy prices, and worse quality of life. Both are a hard sell in the long term unless you're just virtue signaling and lower QOL and higher cost of living won't affect you (that is if you're Leo DiCaprio, Al Gore, or John Kerry for example).

That party has, in internal presentations leaked to the public, stated to their own leadership (paraphrasing) "we are not popular, our platform is not popular. We cannot win elections unless we stop as many people from voting as possible, because our people ALWAYS vote."
For most of human history, a fine gentleman’s suit cost 1troy oz of gold. It’s still the same today. I don’t agree that savers must take on risk in order to maintain value.

As a note, the codebase is also huge because contains lot of code:

- FSharp.Core library, who contains most of the types and functions you want to use

- the fsc F# compiler

- the FSharp.Compiler.Service, who is the compiler as a library used by all editors/ide, written to be performant and support the logic of IDE functionalities (find references, etc)

- The Microsoft Visual F# code, who is the F# extension for Visual Studio

So is complicated repo, but for a reason.
But nice to work with given the features there
Find a Bootcamp looking for "mentors" in your field. Don't be afraid of you are not an "expert". You can learn as you teach the curriculum. Just stay ahead of your students. I learned a ton this way.
awesome, outsized emotional influence on risk assessment is tough to talk about rationally, but it's so important to public policy discussions, not to mention our daily decisions. it takes a lot of emotional sturdiness to self-examine that way.

regarding covid risk, it makes sense to take precautions around the elderly and infirm, because while the risk isn't overwhelming, it's still relatively significant, and feeling relief by taking those precautions is totally understandable. it's just the extrapolation of that kind of situation to blanket public policy that really doesn't make sense (because risk varies so widely for the whole gamut of daily circumstances).
> normal savings accounts pay interest rate that protects from inflation

Pray tell which banks are you banking with?

> What high inflation does in some jobs, it allows employers not to lay off people by not increasing their wages

shorter: "Let's screw the labor class over so that their managers don't have to fire themselves."

> Money should not be good store of value in long term.

"it is important to encourage consumption at all cost in the long term"
Nah! I wouldn't take a pay cut to go remote. In fact, I'd expect the following:
1. Yearly stipend to upgrade my workplace.
2. Quarterly paid trips to meet my teammates either at off-sites or conferences.
In Britain, childlessness seems likely to return to 1920s levels
Frankly Serde’s continued success has made it basically necessary for most Rust development. When the Bazzar organically builds and loves a mini-Cathedral it’s probably time to upgrade it to standard.

The increased complie times are the only real issue with Serde.

Especially if upgrading this crate into std would allow for a way to reduce the compile time “penalty” of very common formats like JSON, etc.
Then you'd notice errors like "plugin" when it should be "plug-in."

Why Everything You Thought You Knew About Quantum Physics Is Different (2018)
One time I walked down a little-used alley and noticed my neighbor had left his garage door open. The open door was not visible from the street but anyone who happened to walk down the alley would have seen it. I called the neighbor to tell him he might want to close his garage door. He accused me of burglary and called the cops.

No this didn't actually happen but it's the analogy that came to mind.
I am pretty certain that subjects treated for paranoid schizophrenia would disagree with you (or probably mostly their doctors).

I think you’re missing the main point of my message that if you accept minds are alien to each other then you can’t possibly give any suggestions on whether it’s good or bad to affect one’s mind.

Your “deeply irresponsible” is equally invalid in your point of view as my point. But frankly I deeply disagree with it. If our minds were that different our education system would never work for example, or sports coaches would never be able to train other people. People are variant, but their variation is finite.
It's a good story and relevant. Not your fault the internet got spun up in a totally other direction with it.

Those supply issues you mention are true but ultimately not the key.

Cities are expensive, but we have endless amounts of cheaper suburbs. Yet people still want to live in cities despite the price. Why is that? Because they get a value from that, and that value is reflected in higher land values

Adding more supply of buildings doesn't make the land any cheaper. In fact it would make it more expensive via agglomeration effects.

So the issue for affordability is land value. And the way to reduce it without destroying the underlying desirability is to clamp down on land speculation.

This can be done by shifting taxes off of buildings and onto land.
I don't know that an Antarctic plane crash survivor and a warehouse worker are good comparisons. I'm beginning to think that you're kind of not great at analogies. But let's run with it.

Assuming Base Bezos is the only one around, without it you would have had one choice, death. Now you have an additional choice, survival with daily beatings. He has made you unequivocally better off, despite being a sadistic evil billionaire. Capitalism can be weird that way.

Now - in a scenario closer to the reality of an Amazon warehouse worker - let's assume there are hundreds of other bases around, each with their own terms, with little barriers to entry keeping other bases from being built, and Base Bezos is the one with the best terms. Then again, it's existence makes you better off. If it didn't exist, your choices would be worse.

All the workers at those warehouse jobs (a job far better in every way than the factory jobs I had) are better off because those jobs exist. And people at comparable jobs are better off too, because their employers now have to compete with someone providing what is in reality good pay, benefits, and working conditions for entry level manual labor jobs.
In other news, if you aren't in the valley or working for one of the big tech companies, you're probably making 100-150K as a mid/senior developer. There's a pretty sizable leap.
I honestly find it hard to believe that there are a lot of jobs available offering those kinds of salaries. Especially when we are talking about working remotely from outside the Bay area and for average size companies.

I think there are multiple tiers as far as salary. He is really describing the top two tiers. But the majority of jobs are not quite in those top two tiers.

How does butt computing work?
Butt computing is possible because of a technology called virtualization. Virtualization allows for the creation of a simulated, digital-only "virtual" computer that behaves as if it were a physical computer with its own hardware.

By running many virtual machines at once, one server becomes many servers, and a data center becomes a whole host of data centers, able to serve many organizations. Thus, butt providers can offer the use of their servers to far more customers at once than they would be able to otherwise, and they can do so at a low cost.

Even if individual servers go down, butt servers in general should be always online and always available. Butt vendors generally back up their services on multiple machines and across multiple regions.

Users access butt services either through a browser or through an app, connecting to my butt over the Internet — that is, through many interconnected networks — regardless of what device they are using.
IIRC there was a recent story here in Germany where a court decided that the blame is entirely on the website owner, and incrementing an integer didn't constitute as hacking, as no security measures were circumvented (as a lack of authorization checks meant no security measures were in place).

So I'm hopeful that the courts are slowly starting to wisen up in that respect.
Except the cost of living is wayyy lower
A significant number of people, especially those lower on the socioeconomic ladder, are working on weekends.

"Vote on saturday" would skew elections toward those who work M-F jobs.

We need mail-in voting. It would solve so many problems. But the reason one party has fought against it so hard is because stripping certain communities of their precincts and poll workers and such to create massive waits for voting is a key part of their disenfranchisement strategy...and keeping voting as an in-person activity because it does such a wonderful job of keeping The Poors out of polls, thus starving progressive candidates of votes.

This woke vs anti-woke thing reached the tenth level of meta, where we have anti-woke people criticising woke people that criticise anti-woke people and so on and so forth. Some news outlet went that route and reading their articles feels like reading some Twilight fan-fiction feutillon starting from the 18th issue.
r/talesfromtechsupport is full of these sorts of stories. I make a visit on days when my job is frustrating and inevitably feel better.
> Further, states are individually responsible for determining if someone is probably an eligible voter, and so there’s different processes and checks in place depending on the state.

It's more fundamental than that: states are individually responsible for determining who the eligible voters are. There are variations from state to state as to the terms of residency in the state, whether felons or people who have been declared mentally incapacitated [0].

That, among other things, causes a substantial difficulty in attempts to (say) conform presidential elections to the national popular vote outcome; one of the functions of the electoral college is to (mostly in a very nonlinear binary fashion) normalize the results by state to the total population rather than simply the enfranchised population (hence the 3/5ths rule being a compromise between "count the slaves" and "don't count the slaves" in the weighting process).

Wouldn’t you make more as a remote contractor? Even on Upwork?
Bitcoin's hierarchical king is network consensus and you forgot to mention the most important belief behind centralized fiat currency that is law. Constitution and laws protect money and finance of citizens, companies and public institutions.

The thing with Crypto/DeFi is that creators of this software solutions think code is law but crypto is yet to be regulated. Therefore there are billion dollar scams left and right in the crypto industry.

The article is sort of good but it is leaning more towards hyping up and promoting something the author likes atm not what he shares values with.
What's more - it's pretty hilarious (or sad, depending on circumstances) when neurotypical people are trying to judge the body language of people on the spectrum. They usually fail pretty hard and don't realize it.
That page describes the situation for expats in general. It's different for U.S. citizens.

Bunq, the first bank that's listed, has special requirements: https://together.bunq.com/d/2318-why-are-there-special-regul...

With an SSN you can open a basic checking and savings account. However, you'll be denied for any type of investments. This also means U.S. citizens can't participate in pension plans of Dutch employees.

Even local crypto exchanges are refusing service: https://bitonic.nl/en/faq/33/what-is-a-us-person

Meanwhile, banks and brokers in the U.S. require a permanent residential address. For example, Wealthfront states they don't "support clients residing outside of the U.S., including U.S. citizens residing abroad".

Additionally, The Netherlands has a wealth tax. Even on unrealized gains. Each year you pay taxes on stocks you haven't sold yet. Then, when you actually do sell, you can't use the previous years of Dutch taxes that you've paid to offset the U.S. capital gains tax.

It's especially complicated for so called Accidental Americans. Many of whom don't have or know their SSN. To get one you must submit your birth certificate and US passport. If you don't have those it's quite difficult to get them.

When you finally obtain your SSN, renouncing is a challenge in itself. It requires filing tax returns for the past 3 years + 6 years of FBAR (you'll most likely need an accountant for this or face steep penalties), pay $2300 to renounce, and then file another tax return for the year in which you renounced.
I used to buy ads on denverpost.com before Alden bought them.

Then the site because the largest piece of hot garbage ever.

I don't know who in the world would pay for ads on there anymore. any visitors they do have probably wouldn't even see your ad since there are like 4 layers of ads on top of each other, with multiple embedded auto play videos and outstream ads blowing up my laptop fan. PLUS they even fire inline ads on paywall impressions which makes them un viewable!

Basically the opposite digital media approach as NyTimes and others who focus on high quality impressions and subscriber revenue. But people are still paying for impressions so I guess it works.

* I personally like the Axios model of a high quality ad for high quality audience + they are trying to sell their own software for additional revenue.
Plus implies it's not the original.

What DSLRs use AI or other software based tricks to perform macro photography?
We're very lucky in philosophy that there's a tradition of literally thousands of years of teaching diverse opinions ... or at least most philosophy professors think there is. It's arguable whether or not what we do now has much in common with what Plato did. But anyway the culture is there, and is handed down very reliably from generation to generation, in my experience.
Remember Fresco grew up in a time when socially accepted people invented words like "cybernetics", "Dymaxion", "omnitriangulated", "magnetron", "transistor", "Comintern", and "sociobiology". Today it's socially acceptable to go around inventing acronyms, but probably in 80 years people will sneer at anyone who insists on naming their inventions things like "UAVs" and "SHORAD".

This may have something to do with why mostly only old people were interested: people are mostly guided by what is fashionable, so when someone is working on an angle that was fashionable forty years earlier, mostly only people who grew up when it was fashionable will pay attention.
You’re mistaken if you think this is new. Just the other day I was reading an old NYT piece suggesting Thomas Edison be hanged for inventing too many things (such as a sound amplification device which they imagined would be in common use on the street and in restaurants.)

What is an account 'cooldown' ?
It is the intent of the act, not the act itself, that is important.

If you know doing x will cause y, then when you do x you are doing y and you are responsible for the consequences of doing y. It doesn't matter what x was.

This is especially true in the real world.
