with that logic, what's the threshold for forcing them to spend down their wealth? 1 billion, half a billion, 1 million, 1 hundred thousand?

If the government takes it, what are they going to spend it on? Foreign wars, jails, lavish mansions for leaders?

But quite honestly, if somebody makes a successful business, wise investments, or works their ass off building an empire, who's to say they can't enjoy all the wealth they've brought in?

Bezos may be filthy rich, but because of the countless hours of work he put in (don't tell me he didn't work nights and weekends while his employees worked 9-5) so you can enjoy groceries on demand, 2 day delivery on almost anything you want, and great video streaming. Stop using the services he created if you want his wealth to go down.

> You replied and said you saw a psychiatrist when you were still on a anxiety drug and the insurance paid for it. Well, of course they did, you were taking a drug.

The insurance company doesn't know what you are discussing in your sessions and isn't going to let you see or not see a specialist just based on whether they prescribe you meds. That's not how it works - or not how it should be working if your insurer is acting appropriately. I also saw this psychiatrist a couple of times before taking anything. I didn't walk out of my first session with a prescription for buspirone.

> I never said psychiatrists pressure patients. I said they only treat patients on drugs. If the patient decides to go off drugs that's the natural end of the relationship.

It is, but that doesn't mean you just immediately stop seeing them and never communicate again. That's not how it works - with a good psychiatrist at a good practice. You taper off, verify the taper worked and you have no further issues, and then stop seeing them if you want.

> I'm also correct that many patients who have gone off the drug to see if the sexual dysfunction stops will probably no longer be making appointments with the psychiatrist. What would be the point? If they want to talk to someone that's what therapists are for.

You need to provide some data for this assertion if you are going to keep making it. The point is that the psychiatrist, as the person overseeing your care, is the person you would naturally tell about a problem you were having. I don't think "go off the drug and just stop talking to the doctor" is the normal behavior, I think it's more like "tell the doctor you're going off the drug, confirm you went off the drug, the doctor asks if you want to try another drug, you say no, and then you stop talking to the doctor."

I'm sure some people do just stop taking whatever they're taking and never speak to their doctor's office again - but most practices are set up to prevent that, because you'd have to actually cancel an appointment and ignore phone calls in order to get to that point. Doctors hate risk by and large, and letting patients randomly discontinue drugs with no supervision is not something they generally want to incentivize.

> I mean yea... we had a gigantic pandemic and people were getting sick. We can also attribute the fact that you have goods and services and a vaccine in your arm to the same markets. Certainly the government helped in some ways but it also completely botched the response to the pandemic.

I'm not arguing that the government response to the pandemic was good, though. I'm arguing that the market response to it is and was terrible. Sure, some things remained functional, but having a run on cleaning supplies, hygiene products, electronic components, and others because the markets could not cope with elastic demand isn't a great look.

I understand how we got into this situation (compared to having stocks of unsold product which is eventually written off sitting in a warehouse somewhere). That doesn't excuse it, though. There is little reason other than "satisfy shareholders" that industrial giants should not have been able to keep up on demand for _bleach_.

> No this isn't that. If you're going to bucket list a bunch of people and say "blah blah blah libertarians think this" then I'm going to point out why that's incorrect and not representative of general libertarian philosophy which is a lot more than what is being discussed in the OP. It's not a fair characterization, and clearing up misconceptions is a fair thing to do.

I am not bucket listing a bunch of people and saying "libertarians think this". I am saying that libertarians and what even qualifies as "general libertarian philosophy" is so incredibly fractured and scattershot that even speaking of "libertarians" as some sort of group is an exercise in futility, and not only because people like yourself will leap to the defense of "libertarians" without any clarification at all.

> Great so then why are we blaming them again?

Because it there's ANY unifying theme between "libertarians" and "libertarians", it's "markets handle problems better than governments", which they demonstrably do not.

> If you want to say "they did have an influence" then fine, I'll say that Communists and such have had a big influence too.

And who's arguing for communism here?

> I'm not sure what your point is here. I guess in response I could say we experienced uncontrolled Communism during the 1940s-1980s and now again with the CCP. We've been there and tried that.

Sure, great, amazing. That's a position I'm happy to live with. Quibbling about differences in communist theory isn't relevant, since it actually seems to be popular with Gen Z and Millenials, and maybe they'll get a chance to actually try it through advocacy and electing people who match their beliefs instead of living in some no-man's land of "we don't wanna be part of your system, man, but if we were we'd do it so much better".

That's how democracy works.

One way to summarize this article and relate it to software engineering: Before Starship, orbital launches and their payloads were like "snowflake" servers. Meticulously crafted one-offs. After Starship, launches and their payloads should become like containerized servers. (Starlink is already going this direction. No wonder, since Falcon is just a stop-gap and that system was designed for Starship)

This is one of those algorithms that, once you understand the fundamental concepts, opens up so many doors for you in systems-level thinking. Great tool to have, portable, and relatively easy to implement.

I recently had to figure out a short-term way of horizontally scaling a graphite service. I didn't really like the stateful complexity around the carbon relay-based solution, so I decided to build a simple orchestration layer in node that routes statsd metrics to graphite nodes using consistent hashing.

Given the use cases for that particular service, I didn't have to worry about long term data storage so I could hand wave some of the pain points in cluster membership changes. A simple keyspace-aware rsync daemon was enough to get the job done.
Nice article, well written. I like Alex's approach and I like that I have found all the information I wanted to know about this new shiny board :) Keep up the good work alexellisuk :)
> So in theory it corresponds to the maximum power dissipated by the CPU under load

I think this isn't quite right - TDP is the amount of heat the system needs to be able to dissipate in order to prevent thermal throttling at a given base speed. If the system can dissipate more (and provide more power), chips can clock higher to a turbo or boost speed.

Your comment seems to imply that, for example, the current consensus is that Newtonian gravity is 'pretty badly flawed' now that we understand it to be superseded by general relativity. This is not true; Newtonian gravity is considered to be a very good approximate theory for low velocities and field strengths.

The reason the ancestors of these people went to many of these places was to find jobs. Now those industries are dying out either we can start subsidising those jobs with more and more taxes from everyone else, we can take deductions from your wages to pay them to stay where they are, or those people can do what their ancestors did.

Not every country, or every region within a country, has to have the same economy. The Chinese economy is maturing, the global economy has absorbed hundreds of millions of Chinese workers into it's economy over the last few decades. That created huge opportunities, globally, and also caused some reorganisation. It has not been costless. Nevertheless it's happened and wages in china have risen to the point that manufacturers are expanding elsewhere but there isn't another China for the global economy to absorb in the short to medium term. The US economy is doing fine and is well placed to succeed. Throwing that away on massively costly protectionist navel gazing is not going to help.

I’m usually one to defend patents on the grounds that the claims are far more narrow than the general idea being criticized in internet comments… that being said, claim 1 is, on its face, very broad. Like super broad. I’d be curious to check out the prosecution history and the spec on this to see if there’s anything limiting in there. Because in plain language, claim 1 is … broad.
I have found when your account goes into this "you're posting too fast" purgatory, you can't post more than (I think) five times in some time period (12 hours?? not sure).

Not to be too mean about it (I do own an op-z) but there's a subset of synthheads who will buy whatever they put out.

The price is about double what i expect anyone else to sell it for so that is about on par with most of their stuff.

The most interesting thing to me is that they don't seem to give you a reason to want to buy it over some other mitx case. Its just "we made a small computer case it's small!". They're marketing to their own fans with this.

Extremely good analysis. I was also skeptical of the original podcast.
The underlying issue is that either the hair cells stopped working, or the auditory nerve is damaged in some way.

The ideal solution would be to repair the hair cells or replace them with a drop-in solution that restores their function. Likewise with the auditory nerve. Of course, these are pie-in-the-sky ideas currently.

Sound amplification essentially symptomatically resolves the problem by playing the appropriate frequencies louder, but in the case of hearing loss due to damage, amplification would just exacerbate the problem, unless I am fundamentally misunderstanding something.

In layman's terms, it would be like temporarily losing your hearing by going to a rock concert, and then raising the volume of everything around you to rock concert level, so you can continue to hear things.
It's true that I/we come down heavily on nationalistic flamewar, slurs, and groundless insinuations about spies and shills and bots and manipulators and all that kind of thing. But this isn't related to China—it follows clearly from the site guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html) and is the same whichever country or group is at issue.

Guidelines-breaking comments do frequently appear about China, but that is a function of geopolitical and media trends, not HN moderation. The way we moderate such comments has nothing to do with my/our personal views about China or any other country. If you stop and think about it and you know the HN guidelines well, this shouldn't be that hard to believe. The vast majority of these moderation calls are not borderline.

From a moderation perspective, everything in the above paragraph is obvious. From a user perspective, it's often impossible to communicate, because whenever someone has a strong feeling about $topic, their view about moderation is determined by their feeling about $topic. If they see us moderating something they agree with, they jump to the conclusion that we're secretly in cahoots with the opposing side. Of course the opposing side does the same thing.

In the days of steam powered factories, a central power plant was used to drive belts that would power various machines. More power intensive machines were sited near the central power plant to maximize efficiency and parts were moved to where the machines were.

Electrification allowed the replacement of belts with motors but machines were expensive so they were upgraded in place and electricity was thought of as just steam, but less messy and cheaper.

It took several decades into electrification before people fully wrapped their heads around: a) many small motors didn't cost more than one big motor and you should redesign your machines so that the motors were where they made sense and b) now that machines could be placed anywhere, you should design your factories so that the machines were in the path of the parts.

Sometimes, quantitative changes become qualitative changes and you need to start from a clean sheet because all of the existing received wisdom stemmed from obsolete assumptions. It takes a while for this process to happen because we don't fully know how all of our assumptions stack on top of each other and we resist the change because our power/identities rest on elements of the status quo.

Disruption theory is premised on upstarts recognizing opportunities that incumbents are structurally unable to exploit because they derive too much benefit from the old status quo.
> By the time you're getting anywhere near that, you're likely to have captured some comets and are processing fuel for interplanetary missions in an orbital refinery.

I think you’re underestimating both the mass of a comet and that the geopolitical implications of a private company being one industrial accident away from replicating something several orders of magnitude closer to Chicxulub than to Tsar Bomba would prevent them being allowed to even try it.

I did a napkin estimate a while back, and even optimistically 10,000 Starship launches is just where you start going “hmm, perhaps we should think about starting to seriously plan the basics of an orbital ring or a launch loop” — a 40Mm circumference steel loop with a cross section of 1m^2 is still about 30 times less massive than 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko.
Now you have the problem of if every TSA worker and other officials will believe your document with an X is not forged
What a mess. It sounds like command -v should have been the default from the get go and which should never have been introduced to debianutils. Once it was though, IMO, debian should never make a decision that breaks existing functionality.

In general, I don't care if you extend features beyond POSIX in your core utilities, but once you do, you have to assume people rely on that functionality.

I think this is the most poignant take:

>A proper transition plan would mean that I would never even notice this. One which would replace another and nothing would break. That is the sort of thing I expect to happen in Debian - we are generally good at this stuff, and it's a big reason for using the distro.
Does the port charge container owners for storing empties? Ramp up the storage fee, and voila... empty containers go back on empty boats that would otherwise make the return trip with no load. Container owners will find that shipping them back with a reasonable premium to keep ships around long enough to pick up the empties eventually costs less than storing them at the port.

Aside, I'd love to have an empty container on my parcel out in the desert, if there's such a huge glut of empties, why does one in any condition cost $10k, without delivery? If anyone has a source for empty containers for sale at reasonable prices, I'd love to have their contact info.

I don't know. If it's such a problem how can the mayor not be concerned, appraised, and trying to solve the problem? The article says "everyone knew this was happening and didn't do anything". So I'm not sure it's fair to suggest that people simply didn't know and thank god Flexport with it's vested interest in improving logistics took a look".
The extra views are probably good for their numbers too, if that's something they care about.
Your last point is being reported. It's cheaper for the Chinese to export containers (with subsidized steel) than it is for shipping them back, so they're just making new ones.

Conjecture, but policy wise, this could relate to steel tariffs, decrease Chinese steel imports to the US and finding the container market to allow you to keep pumping money into the industry
I use something better than MinGW which lets the Linux binaries I build, run not only on Windows, but also Apple, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and boot from BIOS too. It's sort of like what Java promised to be with the whole saying, "build once run anywhere" except it actually is and it doesn't need an interpreter either.

Probably because SystemD network management is harder to use on a headless install. With a Raspberry Pi you just need to edit a couple of lines in the boot.conf to have it connect to WiFi on boot.
