DRM+ broadcasts digital audio over medium, short, and also long wave. It has 30 - 180 kbit/s depending on coding, in a 100 kHz channel.

Using 10 or 50 kHz down there as a data broadcast channel would not be an issue, as it's not like the longwave band is exactly crowded.

To me, that thread is Twitter in a nutshell.

Yes, I thought "typical Twitter" when I saw it as well. Small bits of interesting information, with a huge dose of identity politics mixed in.
Yes but if you've spent your career working in a programming language that just does the Right Thing (per business/accounting rules), and you're thrown into a project with a language you don't know and need to do money math, it's not unreasonable to expect, until told otherwise, that 0.1 + 0.2 = 0.3.

The COBOL-turned-Java programmers I worked with may not have been the best (nor is Java all that), but the fact that COBOL does money the way we intuitively expect "out of the box" is why it remains in wide use. What other language has a built-in Money type that handles error accumulation and rounding the way accountants expect?
> So having suppliers instead of being vertically integrated gets taxed repeatedly.

Yes. But maybe having a long chain of suppliers is worth a tax penalty.

The vertically integrated company has a stronger incentive to stay solvent.

I’m thinking particularly about construction businesses here.
The issue is that many billionaires effectively have zero revenue. For example, Elon's salary at Tesla is 0$ per year. So you can increase the top bracket all you want, they won't pay more.

Instead they get liquidity through loans backed by their shares, on which they of course have no tax.

I agree that taxing based on unrealised gains is not a good solution, but I don't see how raising the top bracket solves that either.
The more experience I gain the less I use SO and more I just go to the sources or read the docs.

With googling for SO answers I have to parse the question, find a modern answer (because the accepted one is 10 years old and won’t work), parse that and adapt it to my problem. With documentation I just search for what I need and go straight to solving my problem and I’ve never felt more productive.

I feel like people new to programming focus too much on a specific problem at hand instead of learning the problem solving themselves. I wish I would’ve learned to figure out the issue myself from the start.
My use of stackoverflow has vastly faded over time. I only ever go there to look for hints on ways to do something better, better practice, newer ways or a simpler way.

There are more and more wrong answers posted by what looks like the same people who have MVP on the Apple, Microsoft and Google forums who just whore for kudos points. I can't understand the motivation to dilute something of value.
1 and 2 are one in the same. The revolving door feeds itself.

It's not like the recruiter and/or hiring company are going to tell you up front "Yeah, the design team is clueless." True story: you only find that out after the fact. Pushing back is possible, and it does happen, trust me ;) But it either happens too late, management is clueless, or both.

So you update your CV in search of green pastures. That in turn creates an opening. Management won't admit it's them. The narrative is: we need better talent and that means paying more.

And so on.

To clarify, police can’t simply access Ring camera footage at will. They have to send out a request around a certain incident and Ring users are free to choose if they want to contribute their footage.

The article mentions this:

> In exchange, Amazon provides police departments with an easy way to request and store footage from thousands of residents at one time––allowing for massive warrantless surveillance.

“Massive warrantless surveillance” doesn’t make sense because police don’t need a warrant to ask people if they’d like to volunteer footage of an incident.
How are they implemented?

Compile time? With template expansion like D and C++?
All these BAD design decision ;)
You're right. I maintain a very large code base in a private repo and a successful open source project. Generics will allow me to clean up a lot of code duplication internally, but given that Go modules are distributed as source code, this would force everyone to use Go 1.18.

My plan is to not use generics for quite a while, as it's pointless to have two separate implementations, one for 1.18 and one for < 1.18, which is difficult, because I really like the feature.

The Grand Unified Programming Theory: The Pure Function Pipeline Data Flow with Principle-based Warehouse/Workshop Model

My theory based on the simple, classic, vivid, and widely used in social production practice, elementary school mathematics "water input/output of the pool" as a mathematical prototype, Therefore, it is scientific.

The "von Neumann architecture" and "programming paradigms" used by computers now has no mathematical model support. So it cannot prove its scientificity.

My theory rebuilt the theoretical foundation of the IT industry, The IT industry is fundamentally associated with mathematics. Solved the most fundamental and core major problems in the IT industry.

Therefore, my "warehouse/workshop model" will surely replace the "von Neumann architecture" and other "programming paradigms", become the first architecture in the computer field, and it is the first architecture to achieve a unified software and hardware.

Software and hardware are factories that manufacture data, so they have the same "warehouse/workshop model" and management methods as the manufacturing industry.

In the IT field, only it and binary system fully comply with these 5 aesthetics: Simplicity, Unity, order, symmetry and definiteness.

It has a wide range of applications, from SOC to supercomputer, from software to hardware, from stand-alone to network, from application layer to system layer, from single thread to distributed, from general programming to explainable AI, from manufacturing industry to IT industry, from energy to finance, from the missile's "Fire-and-Forget" technology to Boeing aircraft pulse production line technology, from myth to Transformers.

That doesn't inspire confidence...
Don't, mostly.
It's so strange that they did this because YAML looks nothing like JSON. The entire point of a standard is to impose constraints to ensure that different people will do things in the same way... That's how you achieve compatibility between different systems.

When you have a flexible standard which allows people to do something in many different ways, it defeats the entire point of there being a standard...
Intelligence agencies obviously rarely do PR. Give one example of a NATO hacking "proxy" getting caught. There have been multiple Russian ones.
I don't know the answer to that but Scala is also a precedent for using square brackets for generics (AKA type parameters). However in Scala arrays don't use square brackets so that confusion is avoided.
Warren Buffet lives in a 6000 sq ft (~600 sqm) house, drives a 2014 Cadillac, and has McDonald's for breakfast. Despite owning one of the most valuable companies in the world at most one could say he lives like a single-digit millionaire. If your characterization of the "average people" of New Zealand is true, then it seems like he would have no problem fitting right in.

If you're going to escalate in that direction, I'll point out that an organized group of criminals will happily escalate the issue to the point where 'Just use your guns for self-defense' is not going to end in your favor.

They'll only need to make an example out of a few people to make it clear that giving in to their demands is much cheaper than fighting them.
Isn't divesting different than police abolition?

Is anyone in this thread cognizant of some data that shows whether divestment has a correlation to actual crime data? I would really like to know.

There have been a lot of people talking about divesting. But, I wonder how much has actually occurred. And, whether in places where it has occurred, there has been demonstrated uptick in crime, or whether there are places where crime has risen alongside a marginal reduction in police forces (due to attrition, or whatever).

I would really like to see a factual discussion because it feels like the arguments are generally coming from a bias on both sides and the crime wave happening could be occurring because of number of contributing factors, not just divestment.
My dad was a HAM radio operator, and as a kid I used to tune in WWV on some of his radios. There was just something wonderfully magical about that -tock- -tock- -tock- sound and the voice. It was at its best when the signal was kind of weak and hard to tune in perfectly.
I think it's exactly what they do. Control doesn't have to be total. People lying in bed doomscrolling for hours are being controlled, even if just partially, by an engagement loop.

Engagement loops, like the other things you listed, are not inherently "good" or "evil". What organizations use them for may be good or evil, but that's a separate discussion.

Indeed, maybe even mutually intelligible, but we can never know for sure.

> Sanskrit has insane overlap in lexicon with modern Lithuanian

Not just lexicon but grammar also: they have very aligned case systems, for example.

In the case of Lithuanian what you are seeing however is an extremely conservative language. Many ancient IE languages, not just Sanskrit, have a lot of overlap with Lithuanian.

Those largest companies from 20 years ago didn't fail, they are all doing very well (well, GE excepted), they just did not grow nearly as fast as new tech did.
Precisely. In a case at work, I’ve found that some YAML is complicated because the abstraction level at which it’s describing things is too low; the fix is to move a most of the logic into code and keep some minimal flexibility in the YAML (or use SQL instead, though that choice is more about who we want to empower to edit it).
The problem here is with the step up in cost basis upon death, not getting loans against unrealized shares.
The original implementation used ( .. ), which I found an unreadable mess of parentheses soup, but luckily that was changed. The problem with < .. > is that it's ambiguous with the greater-than and lesser-than operators. From [1] (among many other discussions on this):

For ambiguities with angle brackets consider the assignment

a, b = w < x, y > (z)

Without type information, it is impossible to decide whether the right-hand side of the assignment is a pair of expressions:

(w < x), (y > (z))

or whether it is a generic function invocation that returns two result values:

(w<x, y>)(z)

In Go, type information is not available at compile time. For instance, in this case, any of the identifiers may be declared in another file that has not even been parsed yet.

Exactly this. And even worse, you are disincentivizing the most effective leaders from driving their companies to huge success.

It eliminates the risk to established entities to be disrupted.
Property tax is the recurring value tax, kind of a wealth tax while you hold a property, and prop 13 does shield much of the appreciated value from this. A new homeowner might be paying 1-2% of market price per year, while an elderly neighbor might pay 1-2% of an assessed value that is closer to a market value from 20+ years ago. The assessment does increase at a very slow rate, and in larger jumps with remodeling or other improvements.

At the sale, the appreciation becomes realized as capital gains income. There are some rules making a portion of gains tax-exempt for a typical homeowner, but the remainder of a large appreciation is taxed as income. There can also be a sales/transfer tax on the transaction, which is of a comparable rate to the annual property tax rate.

The third significant event is inheritance, where the house could pass to an heir without a sale and have its basis updated to current value. This is when the appreciated gains can really go untaxed.
Yes, which I find unfortunate but I can respect that approach as it's likely the simplest way of implementing it and Go does want to avoid heavy abstraction in its type system.

The downside is you can't do something like have a function pointer to the generic itself or specify generic members of a dyn trait/interface or otherwise treat the generic as a first class value (although you can treat specific instantiations of it as first class). The generic is basically syntactic sugar for a macro like substitution system. C++ and other languages that take the monomorphization route all have this restriction, whereas languages with more "first-class" support for generics like C# don't and hence do allow the moral equivalent of a virtual template.

I think it depends if you're getting paid. If they call you an intern because you're still in college or have no professional experience, but they're paying you fairly then it seems like a fine arrangement they ask you to do real work. On the other hand, if your compensation is primarily "experience" then I'd say you're being bamboozled.
Grimes' appearances on Numberphile are some of my favorites to watch.

I picked up a set of these dice from the official site a while back and they were fun to play with.

As board gamers, we also picked up some of the dice that you can roll to determine who goes first. (Dice have various numbers, each die is unique so no ties, but equal chance to have a higher number than the other.)

> The rest of the problems can be solved by quoting your strings.

How do I get all of YAML's millions of other users to quote all of their strings?

What about programmatically generated YAML?

Also, you're entirely ignoring two other major issues: meaningful whitespace (making YAML hard to read and write) and multiple ways of doing the same thing (making it confusing).
My wife (a physician) has heard tons of stories from people who were in very strict isolation for 6, 9, 12, 15 months and then did Thanksgiving or Christmas at their kids house once, got COVID and ended up in the hospital.

In comparison you're at much higher risk than they were since you're not in isolation. COVID is endemic in the US and most of the world, so your chance of eventually getting it is approximately 100%.

Once you get it, your risk of dying is between 1 and 20 in 1000 depending on your age and risk factors. Your risk of getting long COVID is approximately 1 in 10. Most long COVID isn't chronic illness, but some is, and it's awful.

In comparison, your risk of a mild heart infection from the vaccine is less than 1 in 100,000 and any other risks are less than that.
We'll believe it when AI begins negotiations.

The meaning of human language is to do with having an effect on the world, having a perception of the world, and having motivations related to the world - such as conquest, subjugation, hearing lamentations etc.

It seems possible to have the information content of language without the above extension in the world. Information is "just" combinations of patterns.

Humans need surprisingly little data to learn language. If we can discover our internal presumptions (a priori probabilities), AI mightn't need so much data either.
I've been in companies that became founder led to professional CEO led, and you can see the difference in how effective a company is. I think there is great shareholder value also in founder led companies too, which have led to the growth of some of the largest and most successful companies in the world. When gates left microsoft was probably the begining of the company becoming somewhat irrellevant. Apple, tesla, epic, facebook, google, etc are all great examples of this.

There is a really great possibility that america shoots it's future economic growth in the foot with something like this, just because it's future superstars companies are not led by their great founders.
It's harder to read than other methods, and it doesn't encode the URL parameters, which means it potentially produces an invalid URL, and in some cases could lead to security problems (similar to SQL injection).

The person controlling the company potentially has a much greater and longer lasting influence on the stock price!

Epic isn't going to be part of the S&P when it's private anyway, so obviously that's not a top concern for Sweeney.
Does the tax apply when money moves from one entity I control to another entity I control?

If so, that's clearly a problem.

If not, that's definitely a different set of problems.

Everything seems simple at first, and then it isn't. Every change in taxation rewards some behaviors and punishes others. Either your proposal would result in more tax revenue or less, either of which is a problem for someone, Maybe many someones.

The most obvious issue with the tax structure you describe--aside from who controls which entities--is that it is one of the most regressive tax policies I can imagine. Those at or near the poverty line would now be paying a percentage of everything they earn, while those earning far more would be paying that percentage on only a small subset of their earnings. Considered another way, while this seems mathematically equal, it's most burdensome on those with the least ability to afford it.
Maybe it would feel better if you thought of List as the set of all types that are List, and List[Thing] as extracting a single item from that set?
One Ring / Police program I am aware of provides cameras to victims of domestic violence when they find a new home.

There seem to be two responses to this problem:
1) Asserting that YouTube/Facebook/X is not "private" in any meaningful sense: they are acting in the public and affecting the public discourse, so they need to be regulated to prevent them absuing that power. There are sub-discussions about whether that regulation should be a Haugen-style imposition of extra censorship for our own good, or as in this case a need for the regulated effective monopoly to defend why they chose to censor this particular news organisation.

2) Asserting that it is possible to build our own platforms. But then we will see censorship like this at the level of Cloudflare, search indices, financial transaction processors all the way down to ISPs themselves. And that's even ignoring the problem of how to bootstrap (e.g. Parler) into something that enough people know about to make it useful.

I find #2 implausible at this point although I like the DIY ethos of it.

Ignoring the availability of regulation which exists and will be used by someone, is not helping ourselves to a tool that can be effective.
