Neeva has been pretty good in my experience, but the lack of ability to make it the default search engine in Safari (macOS and iOS) is what prevents me from using it 100%.

That's obviously not at all a knock against Neeva. Safari needs to allow more flexibility in its search engine defaults. I've filed multiple radars/requests to Apple to make this setting more flexible and/or provide Neeva as an option.
I just looked at a house next to a small airport. I was wondering about the lead exposure?
Does that $65K represent a trade against USD or a trade against Tether?
It is easy to go overboard with oh my zsh for sure, but startup time, as long as it's less than ~5 seconds, is not likely to be a big problem for most people. On slower machines the real killer is the time it takes for the next prompt to appear after each command. There are mitigations, but I've definitely had machines where it is almost unbearable.
That's true, while I hardly do any programming as a teamlead, some of the meetings, i feel so drained by end of day. That's why I write in the morning right now.

Working as a developer will lighten my cognitive load and may free up more hours to pursue writing.

On other hand, if I make more money, I can grow bigger nest egg and retire earlier.
If fiat had the same properties as cryptocurrencies, I'd agree with you. But you have to at least agree (or understand rather) that they are in fact different, for good or bad. So maybe people other than you see value in those differences.
> I think, the background was the word transpiler was used by compiler creators as a way of gatekeeping.

Why do you think that?
It's a fancy one though.
Don’t they need new engines at some point anyway?
Did it still use your AI?
> It waxes and wanes with the Bitcoin halving cycle, but always comes back stronger than before.

USD - you can buy and/or sell on the major platforms for that price.
It isn't even a settled debate whether CEOs know what is going on or are a particularly important driver of outcomes.

It's pretty clear that a negligent/criminal CEO will lead to the bankruptcy of a company and a loss for investors. So yes, you can say at the extreme end that CEO's are drivers of important outcomes.

Now whether it's effective I think is another subject all-together. My own opinion is that micro-expressions, body language, etc. have been studied and used by the FBI/CIA for their field work. The idea being that once you establish a baseline behavior, you can notice "clusters" that deviate from the baseline based on verbal+non-verbal cues. So I don't see why an AI couldn't do the job.
On Coinbase Pro (just one example) BTC-USD (real USD, not Tether or any other stablecoin) is currently trading at 66,659.99 USD.
Kind of needs a caveat: ... for engines not designed to safely operate with other fuels. I.e. it's not that we need Avgas 100LL to make piston-engined planes possible, we just have a lot of plane engines around that need it. (and one can argue that industry has sat on the problem a bit, because why change as long as 100LL is readily available. (and making 100% compatible fuel replacements indeed appears to be difficult, as far as I know there is only one that has any kind of permits for one plane type, and that also has somewhat nasty additives - so changing the engines is the thing to do)
With Bitcoin, it's not a good idea to sell at all. Just wait how it plays out over the years and replaces the existing monetary system. It's much more fun playing the long game, than trying to time the ups and downs.

However, if you want to try timing the market, then perhaps wait until December / early next year when hype is at maximum. The current hype cycle is just starting.
I read all that and I still don't see what the purpose of this is.
The property rights issue at question here is if the owner should be able to preferentially sell or or lease it to uses it aligns with, and not to the highest bidder.

E. G. If you have a plot in the city and want to lease it to an interest you agree with.
You can spend so much time on something, yet it wouldn't tell a YC interviewer that it's a problem you're intent to solve.

Case in point, my YC idea. I spent loads of my free time on building a MVP, got praise for it, but I did not have a burning passion to solve that problem, or even any desire that I wanted to be in that space long term.
What I learned after running my startup while traveling for a year
I don't actually want Google to index as much of the internet as it possibly can. I actually want streamlined indices that are tailored towards thoroughly searching a specific knowledge domain.

Edit: I would love, love, love a search engine specifically tailored towards programming questions. One that doesn't treat queries like "C# ?." as me looking for "C#" and getting the most generic results possible.
> It's a very sensible system scripting language, alongside Python, Perl, etc.

I’ve always assumed that the main benefit of bash scripts is that they’re portable and universal. If you’re willing to compromise that, why not just go with python? I don’t really understand which gap zsh fills here.
On a technical level there is a Chromium without Google

Or AT&T-like where they split up into different companies, then slowly combine over decades back into one that's bigger and more powerful after the heat is off.

For some reason people use their legal names on Facebook more than they do Twitter. Twitter has a more 'anonymous' vibe even though it's nearly impossible to have true anonymity on Twitter.
I mean if you're an environmentalist of course you would think that -- I think that. But it's a little naive to think anyone else really cares when it's that or cheaper gas and employment.
Interesting and I agree, China is actually a lot like the US. Arrogant, self-righteous and dismissive. Not one iota of critical introspection.
It's a futures based ETF, which means you pay fairly heft fees when holding it (vs a spot ETF).

If you have access to GBTC instead, it's trading at a discount, and intends to convert to a spot ETF, so it's likely the better option.

What scifi are you reading that doesn't have plot holes?

Also, I don't think anything could be less flat than Liu's Chinese characters—especially the women like Ye Wenjie and Cheng Xin. I suppose you might not have spent a lot of time with Chinese people, but you should know that due to their culture they live somewhat different emotional lives than Westerners, with much less emphasis placed on direct individual expression and much more focus on private or hidden (from family, society, etc.) actions.

Personally, I come to science fiction because I'm interested in seeing how human beings respond to the extreme situations in which imagined futures place them. In that regard, Remembrance of Earth's Past is one of the most engaging and successful scifi series I have ever read.
You're completely misinterpreting my point, and perhaps conflating is and ought.

In the industry, your educational background does matter, especially for the type of firm that asks leetcode questions.

I was not saying you need a certain background to be able to be productive in tech, that is a strawman.

But I would defend that your educational background is a signal (very far from a perfect one) at how productive you would be at knowledge work.
> I think, the background was the word transpiler was used by compiler creators as a way of gatekeeping.

I dunno anyone who makes compilers who would draw this distinction (I know a lot of people who make compilers). I think it's more used by language warriors who don't understand there really isn't a distinction.
If you bought in July, you've doubled your money since then.

If you bought in April, you only broke even in the past couple of days.

It's very much about timing the market.
The all time high at those dates was $20K, today is closer to $65K, how is that considered a "fall" for you?

Sure, zooming in at specific points in time you can find good/bad numbers, but the only thing that matters is what the current price is, not what it was before.
Yeah that’s a very good point, I didn’t think about it that way. Even two life-long friends couldn’t have made a deal under those conditions.
but it's not M1 Pro and M1 Pro Max (which would be arguably better than what they did)

It's M1 Pro and M1 Max.
A die-hard tcsh user myself, I mourn the end of an era, but has anyone done serious scripting in the C shell? I jokingly call it a sin in the eyes of the LORD, but seriously, it really, really sucks compared to even just the POSIX shell. It's probably time for me to finally give into Bash or zsh or something equally modern. Might be nice to get access to all of those shell completion hooks some tools have—not because tcsh doesn't offer custom completions, but because most tools don't target it. And so it goes.
Why ever sell your stock if they continue to go up? The answer is whenever you need the money. Same with Bitcoin.

People need a store of value that beats inflation. Cash is shedding its value. The return on cash is literally negative between low interest rates and high inflation.
I'm curious what was worse, leaded gasoline or Diesel? I was reading about France's phase out of leaded gasoline and saw that it happened relatively late with unleaded appearing on the market in 1990 and leaded gasoline being banned in 1995 only.

But before that, it seems that Diesel had started getting popular in the 80s and 90s.
Google did it before it went mainstream.
The companies being asked to include options/warranty/equity usually aren't public, so this wouldn't be insider trading on that basis. Overall, it's better to think of it as Big Co is making an investment in Little Co that it thinks will appreciate as a result of Big Co's business. The cost of that investment is included in the price of whatever Little Co is selling, ergo, there's a large implied discount because Big Co's business is so valuable.
Soon we're going to have questions like, "Our AI interpreted your words as so-n-so. Care to comment?"
Emergency calls from the police, hospital, your father-in-law’s neighbor, or other number not in your contact database are often even more important than sleep.

But the damn robocallers have destroyed the primary use case of telephones. When I was a kid the phone was for “important” stuff, and “tying up the phone” with an unimportant conversation or 1200 baud modem was frowned upon.
What if it just emitted C as its IR instead? MLton (the SML compiler) uses C as its primary backend (while they also have an x86 one) for portability and ease of implementation. By doing so, it bundles a small runtime needed for SML (garbage collection, closures, and such). Would you also consider that a transpiler? I personally wouldn't because SML to C is a drastic change, especially from the abstraction point of view. C just makes a convenient backend at that point.

But since it also has native backends and C is its only other high level language, would you still consider it a compiler since you specifically mentioned "several other languages"?

I think it's kind of fun to look at this philosophically, since these are broad terms without perfect definitions.
As I asked in another thread about APL readability few weeks ago[1], would you be surprised to learn this is valid Dyalog APL?

result←findMax data

max←0
:For i :In data
:If i>max
max←i
:EndIf
:EndFor

result←max

then

findMax 5 1 2 3 5 6 3 1

6

Writing it more neatly as findMax←⌈/ isn't mandatory anymore than `reduce(max, numbers)` is mandatory in Python.

Within 30 seconds of installing fish, I shouted, "How the hell do I disable these annoying suggestions?! This is worse than Clippy!" So I searched fish's docs and learned that it wasn't possible to disable the suggestions! The fish docs state, "Configurability is the root of all evil"[1]. As an Emacs user, this was the most offensive thing I've ever read, which is saying a lot because I once read a work of erotic Star Trek fan fiction about a love triangle involving Dr. Crusher, Wesley and Worf.

It's meant to be used in print, and print has bleed. It's too thin, by far, when it is used on screen (or even modern laser printers): see https://www.levien.com/type/cmr/gain.html
Powershell does have some really cool shit as far as scripting languages go, but it's just so damn verbose.
Sure, if you're out after minor short-term gains, then timing the market is important. But most people don't have time for day-trading and jstx specifically mentioned the last time they were looking at the price was multiple months ago, so they are probably looking for long-term investments, not to be glued in front of a screen all day watching the price.
"something" and "someplace" are the problems here.

What will they like? Which places will be interesting?

It's not at all a given that someone with data and information can't give a more informed opinion on what options are available that may be popular with a set of people than those people themselves.

Why should curated activities only be for tourists on vacation?

There are tons of activities people aren't aware are available, or are aware of but don't know whether would be suitable for them, and which they avoid because there's an opportunity cost to making the wrong choice. Exploring that yourself can be fun, but it's also hit and miss.

The biggest problem to me with this idea isn't the idea that they can do better, but that even the founder took an emotionally charged situation to get to the point of verbalising that this was what he wanted. Wanting to help people who aren't necessarily aware that there's an issue someone could solve for them is tricky.

I live in London. There's stuff to do all over the place. If anything, the challenge is filtering and curating. I'd love a site that did it for me. Especially if it could also book things. Heck, I might even pay for personalised recommendations if it could cut the time I spend on choosing.

But I don't think I'm typical.

I suspect a lot of their potential userbase would be really hard to reach.

that's sort of baked in assumption in questions like that: all your assets are in coins, why would you ever sell them if their value only goes up?

because living involves consumption of various resources, other than just coins.
This 1000%. I am a white American, but I read the book while living in China and working with Chinese people every day. The portrayals are not flat, they are spot-on. Many Western readers just don't realize there are other ways for a person to be besides the Western way.
Is Corn Feeding a Lie?
While this is true, I think it kind of understates the problem. The issue isn't just "a few vain people put too much emphasis on their superficial group identities", but rather they are part of a broader ideological contingent that puts tremendous emphasis on everyone's superficial group identities. These folks generally believe that these identities are useful bases for decision making (i.e., discrimination in the most literal sense of the term) because to know a person's superficial identities is to completely understand that person. It might be controversial to say (i.e., go ahead and take my Internet Points), but it seems to plainly run completely counter to the equality ideology that gave us the civil rights movement and popularized "tolerance" as a virtue.

I guess I would just use the. word compile. I'm not sure the "similar level of abstraction" distinction always holds a lot of meaning and just feel like splitting hairs to me. But maybe I'm missing something.
Other than the fact that they both cost money there’s basically no similarity between stocks in companies and Bitcoin.

Yes, signal (non-)interference is a big upside to optical communication. Photon streams don't interact even when passing through the same waveguide, so you can superimpose many bits/streams/connections in the same transmission channel at the same time (using varying wavelengths or polarisation), and two optical channels running side-by-side don't exert a magnetic force on each other either.

The main upside for optical processing (photonics) is in signal switching then, as in this case. Having to receive the multitude of optical signals, converting them to electrical, doing the signal routing and processing in the electrical domain, then converting back to optical for transmission is a lot of busywork.
Software testing: the ugly duckling of software development
In New England similar groups buy up land and just let it sit, maybe maintain a hiking trail through it.

New England went glaciers -> tundra -> grasslands -> forests managed by native peoples -> un-managed forests.

The ecological state theses environmentalists are promoting is basically the status quo of the early 1700s and late 1800s through present day. It's hard to define what the "natural" state is since it went from periods of rapid change to various states shaped by human activity with little in between. Generally speaking most people consider the forests as they would have existed as managed by the natives prior to European settlement as the state that is most worthy of reconstruction.
what kind of research ? was it computing related or something really different ?

I find it beyond fascinating that people on this forum who are deeply involved with Web 2.0, completely disregard Web 3.0 as a scam. Technology is growing exponentially during our lifetime, if you are not open to the idea of new technology you will be either late or completely left behind.

Many people thought Web 2.0 was a scam and it would never amount to anything more than an online newspaper. Imagine putting your credit card on the internet, Heavens no!

It’s easy to punch down that what we do not understand.

Assuming the 5 phases of a bubble would hold true, I wonder if the ability to scan the blockchain would allow you to analyze it and signal the profit-taking phase. There already seems to be multiple panics regarding bitcoin. Are these manifested as waves?

So many things were making it slowly less and less viable through extra costs/requirements would've likely been the better plan, but instead nothing changes until at some point there is enough pressure for change, and then there's complaints its "so suddenly". (I think with Avgas that has happened a tiny bit through storage regulations - its sufficiently more annoying to keep around that some places don't offer it anymore, making it a tiny bit less attractive for plane buyers)
I agree that it seems to be the case but I don't get it. Those who have worked hard enough to see cronyism in action (especially when it works against you) know that billionaires did not really earn their money on an even playing field. IMO, it takes far more skill to be a millionaire than a billionaire these days. Being a billionaire is mostly about situational and social factors; proximity to the money printers and politicians.

Without social connections, it's almost impossible to start a successful business nowadays. It's like a miracle when it happens because all the big capital is working against you; the easy-money-machines are constantly sucking away all the talent, all the investors, all the business connections away from you and constantly chipping away at your confidence and that of whoever decides to collaborate with you in spite of all this. The kinds of people who are willing to collaborate with a nobody on such projects genuinely believe that they will fail. They're prepared to work 50 years on something and see it fail completely. They know it's an all-or-nothing deal, the billionaires have turned the economy into an all-or-nothing scheme.

At this stage, I'm satisfied with the idea of success being "would have been a success in a world without manipulation of the monetary system." Maybe a bet you make today will pay off for someone else in 200 years; that will be success.
Yes and no, unless you have a magic ball its best to DCA. Maybe at best, you could do a modified DCA so that you're not buying Bitcoin when its at all time highs.

I think this is only in cases where you fake credentials as, or otherwise lead someone to believe, that you’re a licensed professional massage therapist. It’s not the most academically demanding thing, but doing that kind of work on someone you could really hurt them fairly bad if you don’t know what you’re doing whatsoever. So requiring licensure and prosecuting those who fake it makes sense.
People who are buying/holding now - what's the long term plan? Expect even more demand... until? Or is there not "until" and you expect it to go up indefinitely?
Best I can tell, it's largely the opposite: "transpiler" is mainly used to sound cool and build hype, traditional compiler folks tend to fall on your side and prefer to call them all "compilers".
