Awesome. But. I didn't like the part where a 3D surface with linear interpolation was turned into a 2-D quadratic by placing 2 control points on top of each other. Yes, the interpolation formula becomes the same as a 2nd order Bezier, but I'm not sure the folding of the 3d surface like that was necessary. I though the author was going to show something new that I hadn't seen before, but soon ended up using the repeated-interpolation to describe higher order curve. That one part seems like a distraction to me.

> English at the core is based on German (an old German not spoken anymore - and one we probably can't reconstruct)

This is just plain wrong, or at the very least very misleading. It's true that English is at its core a Germanic language. As is German, but it's fairer to say that both languages share a common ancestor. And in fact, we can and have reconstructed these older ancestor languages. In fact, most European languages descend from Proto-Indo-European, which has also been reconstructed to quite some detail.

I can heartily recommend this podcast[1] by the way, which goes into a lot more detail about this as well as the history of how these things got discovered.

In my previous role, the secdevops groups (matrixed teams) were building custom terraform modules for our devs to use in order to easily deploy compliant AWS infrastructure - and devs could only deploy via terraform/CI-CD. While TF specifically states that custom modules are not meant to be used as wrappers, I thought it was a clever way to try getting security "out of the way" while still enforcing best practices.
> I agree some of the LLCs are investment vehicles for individuals, who buy a property, wrap it in an LLC, and pay a management company to rent it out, but that's a bit different (these are just passive investors buying into an asset class managed by professionals).

No, creating an LLC for your RE business does not require the use of a management service. The exact same individual landlords can own properties through LLC as without; the LLC just grants them some liability protection.

> To pay their bills, they have to sell their new bitcoin to people which is effectively like a fee …

No, that's nothing like a transaction fee. The person submitting transactions to the network doesn't pay the seigniorage for minting new bitcoins. There is inflation due to the mining rewards (currently less than 2% annually, and set to decrease over time) which places some slight downward pressure on prices. That inflation is a cost for those holding bitcoin, not those spending it—not that anyone would notice it given the way the price has appreciated.
Not just somewhat arbitrarily invented scales from the west ... in Byzantine musical culture, they do not have or assume the concept of "octave equivalence". That is, doubling the frequency of a sound does not, in classical Byzantine music, constitute "the same note". Byzantine musical culture is wonderful in so many ways. They rarely notate pitches, preferring to notate intervals, which as anyone who has ever tranposed a song from one western major scale to another will understand, is far more of a deep representation of a melody than pitches.

You are not in the business of shipping a million+ devices.

* Any connector is a potential failure point. Generally with a connector you double the connection points (ie, SSD -> Connector -> now soldered to board). So if you are soldering anyways, and can solder to board directly, then you save yourself both a part and a bunch of connection points. This is good news for everything (signal loss, noise / RFI / durability etc). When you warranty and offer applecare on expensive devices, you want these warrenty claims to be low.

* Apple's mode has been to integrate / tighten things up - that is their design philosophy. They are going to integrate as many chips into one as they can (ie, you won't be even able to unsolder a T2 chip because there won't be one). There stuff, again, is meant to be used as an integrated whole, there is no mix / match here.

* They are going to solder memory as well down - you won't be able to replace that either. Then they are going to try and integrate memory into same package as CPU / GPU. I realize this makes folks mad, but it's what they do and it's been very successful for them. I think some of their LPDDR stuff only comes in a solder on format (and M1 is going towards even more integration - I actually like mix and match on my desktops so don't use macs so not following so closely but I know they were thinking of literally not even soldering but integrating fully).

* I saw first hand a number of claims BTW where replacement batteries had been put into macbooks and iphones as part of resales and people then went and complained to apple or about apple online when those batteries had problems. I think even when replaceable, they've added warnings in these cases. But it goes to show the quality in the mix and match department is hit and miss.

Frankly, it's probably 95%+ of their millions / billions of devices that won't get an upgrade. They've done same with airpods, no removable batteries. A ton of companies, again, or COPYING these designs.
Yes, we (the Meadowlark team) did not make the this post in HN. It is definitely not "fully-featured" yet, we are still working on the MVP.

I'm excited to try and yet can't seem to get it working.

I followed the steps to install it on MacOS from the GitHub page and I'm thinking maybe I ran the curl command from the wrong directory, as when I try to run ./motor-admin, it gives two dlyd errors:

1) "lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: ___darwin_check_fd_set_overflow"

2) "Symbol not found: ___darwin_check_fd_set_overflow"

And it shows the "Referenced from:" being my current directory, somewhere in my Documents folder, and then "Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib"

Any idea what might be causing the error?

Thanks!
Sorry, I missed seeing this comment and wanted to respond because you at least tried to offer something concrete.

For the sake of clarification, is there any "apples-to-apples" statistical comparison available to prove some kind of bias? By that, I mean not comparing all powdered cocaine users and all crack cocaine users (comparing groups like that is bad statistics IMO), but comparing sentences among all white/black powdered cocaine users, or comparing sentences among all white/black crack cocaine users?

For instance, would a black businessman working for Goldman Sachs caught with 1 kilo of powdered cocaine get the same kind of sentence as a white equivalent? Or would a white crack cocaine user get the same kind of sentence as the black equivalent? To me, that's the question that's a bit more revealing and interesting.

PS: For the record, personally I don't believe that there ought to be any sentencing disparities. The War on Drugs is an abject failure for anything other than growing a destructive government intrusion into peoples' lives and the criminal penalty for possession of any drug should be precisely 0.

> people are very conflict averse and will avoid giving that sort of feedback

I'm not (that) conflict averse - I'm perfectly happy to suggest, when asked, that we could deliver better results faster if we could spend some time fixing some non-customer facing problems, had better tools, and had a testing environment that was closer to the production environment. I have no trouble saying those things, but I've never seen any action taken on any of them.
Not the parent but I had this happen to me. It was a top of the line Samsung SSD at the time. Catastrophic failure. Was working fine then one day I rebooted and it never came back. I usually plan for failure of each drive every 2-3 years and buy them on Black Friday. But if that took out my entire 3.5k-4k m1 max laptop I'd be rather disappointed. It's $200 to replace a SSD.

If it comes up, I'm pretty sure I'd leave my home vacant rather than renting it out. The loss in rent can be accounted for. The cost of a property manager can be accounted for. The costs of tenants who will not pay rent, who will fight eviction, and who will damage the house in a fit of pique upon leaving is immeasurable.

This decision isn't made though vague horror stories, there are people I know who've had tenants do thousands of dollars worth of damage before they're forcibly evicted. It's not worth the risk.

I'm not sure what you look for is realistic. As a seller, I'd surely prefer to avoid all those contingencies, inspections, etc. - just give me the money, take the property and be done with it! As a buyer, though, I surely want something that I pay multiples of my annual income for to be thoroughly inspected, and be absolutely sure everything is ok (or at least if something is not OK I know it and it's priced in). Risking this kind of money is not something I could afford. I'm not sure anybody - maybe except US federal government - could afford risks of this magnitude without covering oneself somehow. So there would be a process. You could pay somebody to undergo this process instead of yourself, but I don't think you could get rid of it entirely.

That said, intermediaries like you describe exist, afaik. E.g. Flyhomes do something like that.

As a Googler, it's often easier for me to setup a GCP consumer account, AWS, or Heroku account to demo something, compared to using anything internal. I remember the most annoying situation was like 10 years ago when me and other engineers ported Quake 2 to run in Chrome, we were in a time crunch to demo it multiplayer, and I ended up setting up an AWS account to serve it. But then I left it running and forgot and ended up getting a few hundred dollars billed to me because the Quake2 server was chewing CPU.

The "de-siloing" of some of the Microsoft Store in Windows 11 is currently in beta for Windows 10 (and partly for Windows 7) allows a lot more app distribution schemes into the store (including "give us the URL for your existing EXE/MSI Installer and we can even check it for updates") and I hope that will bring more apps back to the Store. I also would love to standardize on just a single update agent with an easy to manage GUI versus the bad old XP days of every app under the sun thinking it needs a Windows Service just to annoy you with update prompts.
I turned it off because the "default" use case seemed rather to be to boost their engagement because someone you know socially would upload a picture of something they did that happened to have you in it. That would lead to you being tagged and getting notified, presumably to talk about how much fun you all had or whatever it was. Unfortunately it's pretty useless to ask people to not upload pictures that you're present in, and FB used notifications essentially just to get you to open the app and re-engage. I turned off everything that generated useless notifications for a while, then I finally turned off notifications completely.
Technical debt is all of the forms of self-sabotage that don't have clear metrics associated with them.

If they had clear, unimpeachable metrics, then you could increase your status by fixing them. Since they don't, few people engage with them. Worse, engaging with some of these problems can lose you status, and so tackling them becomes a form of self-sacrifice.

My impression was they were also going to try and move the T2 off being a separate (potentially replaceable) chip and integrate it with the M1 - did that happen yet or still to happen? But one thing you get on a mac is basically hardware level security for the SSD.

Bad news, data recovery will be hard / impossible. Good news, if you sell the thing on pretty unlikely next person will get your data or can remove the "drive" and try to crack it offline. Not sure how imaging a mac drive works these days either?

The first phrase in that article says "Although cable television was never conceived of as television without commercial interruption" which 100% supports my position. The original "cable TV" was to get all the broadcast channels near by in perfect quality without an antenna, thus having ads. There were ads on "cable TV" from the beginning , many consumers just assumed it wasn't there. It also acknowledges the rest of my point in stating "Indeed, even pay television, once assumed to be secure from commercial interests, is attracting some attention as a potential vehicle for advertising." Note that essentially some channels were paid extras which did not originally have ads, while other channels like CNN, USA, and RCTV did have ads from the get go.

And yeah, advertising revenues weren't nearly as huge for cable networks at the beginning. The first cable networks started operations in the 50s, and you're sharing an article written in '81 pretty much showcasing that there were only a few cable-only TV stations at the time. At the beginning there were zero cable-only TV stations, and that was how it was for about 30 years. All channels you got on cable were just the broadcast stations. Many years later they started adding cable-only stations with some of those stations having advertising and some of them without.

The first real cable-only TV channel was HBO, which was without ads. The second real cable-only TV station was WTBS, which had ads (it was a nearly nation-wide rebroadcast of Ted Turner's broadcast TV station, so only semi-only-cable?) and started on cable in 1976. After that there was Christian Broadcasting Network which was ad-free. In 1979 we got Nickeloden and ESPN (ads), in 1980 we got CNN and USA (ads).

> home owners will benefit

It's going to hurt home owners, too - when the valuation of the house goes up, so do the taxes. It won't be long before the tax burden is so high, the only option homeowners will have is to sell (and then pay even more taxes on the gains on the house sale) and rent it back from Blackrock.

Your question shows the limits from reductio analysis. You have to look at it systemically.

Shifting the burden to the landlord, especially at a time of transient shock, is not only a direct tax, it's a tax when they may be themselves suffering a revenue shock just as their tenants are. Even replacing a tenant isn't automatic; there are transient costs and it can take time. While subsidizing the tenants takes cash from a large base (including debt, borrowed at a much lower rate than a landlord can get). That's the surface difference.

But you may ask "who cares? Why do the landlords a favor?" Well there's a systemic issue in such a shock (think of swimming in the ocean when a wave drops you then lifts you independent of your swimming). Keeping the tenants in situ means the landlords can continue economic activity (doing repairs, buying lunch, going on vacation, etc). The tenants can too -- if nothing else they can look for a job rather than looking for a job AND looking for a place to live. Or they may not have actually lost their job, but just suffered from transient reduced demand (e.g. fewer haircuts) which might end up being complete job loss if they lose housing. Essentially you are preventing a liquidity crisis.

And there are second order consequences as well: as the paper shows homelessness increases; this is a general tax on everyone not just in social programs but in all the followon consequences of having a lot of people on the streets.

It's the same argument for subsidising farmers, even if most of them these days are big businesses: they suffer a lot of transient economic pressure (busts and booms) but we need a reliable food supply. So we engage in dreadfully wasteful behavior because we've decided it's better to pay that than suffer a food supply shock.
