Yes, you are correct. The housing prices have been steadily climbing over the years, and that’s not because companies are getting worse and worse at building houses, and it hasn’t been because of rising material costs (the rises that currently are are all much shorter term and due to corona). Essentially every policy or local decision that could help to provide more affordable housing has also been a direct threat to the real estate investments of the politicians who have shut it down. It’s the biggest generational theft ever seen, where the older generation is deliberately denying the entering generations cheap access to zoning in order to inflate housing prices and extort as much money as humanly possible from the youth.
Likely. The election cycle is 2/4 years, financial results are issued quarterly and stock grants vest over 4 years. Since we abandoned the notion of a "nation" that transcends the individual short term horizon, there are zero incentives left to address long term concerns.

No they aren't. Where are you getting your stats from?
That's a different level of the discussion tree. I was talking about rail appreciation in reply to someone talking about rail appreciation. HN's structure lets people talk about different aspects of the same main topic. It's neat.
I love Red and want to use it more. Sadly my professional life keeps giving me hardware that I can't run it on, so Red is getting marginalized. I wish I had more skill and time to help them out with the 32 to 64-bit transition. [1]

I'm curious whether it is possible to extract and trace DNA down to existing relations from such a specimen.
But again, what's the incentive? For instance with something like CS: Go skins, the developers of the game are doing all the investment creating the asset, and they have zero incentive to make this available outside of their game?

Funny that I have to proof things when you're the one with the initial claim without any proof.

* But sure, let's start with to things. Right here in the thread, people who have acquaintances working for the original meta ulc under the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and them claiming they knew something is happening for months.

* The meta trademark transfer months ago

Also not sure why you think WSJ would contact them months before about/with a whistleblower. But I'm sure WSJ stated that somewhere then, right?

It was also pretty likely that this would be announced during Facebook Connect (former Oculus Connect), which always was around this time the last couple of years.

Was it still a welcome coincidence and convenient? Sure. And did they use it for that? Of course, too. Who wouldn't.

So for example, a BS narrative that worked was Zuckerberg claiming a week? before that he wasn't sure about the new name yet and that it wasn't set in stone yet. That was indeed eaten up by some media.
The way I interpreted it, the writer of the original question doesn't understand all of the mechanics of a Bitcoin transaction, and that's why they were asking.
> most people I ran at work into were not specially educated

We're talking about an historic timescale. If they are literate and have high school degrees, they are very well educated compared to pre-industrial people.

> woman in charge of my office bowed down in excuses after a lawyer insulted her for his own mistake. This is the sort of power people still don't have and that no book will teach you.

Those situations are stomach-turning to me. Books do teach people about that kind of power, how to get it and use it (unfortunately), and how to respond to it. Also, literacy and education led to that attorney's power (unfortunately).
Ask HN: Do you care about IP protection on deployment on client's site?
Hi HN, When deploying software that runs on the client's site, from classic compiled software, to Python and Neural Networks, do you care to protect your IP with obfuscation, encryption or some other solution, or it's not something worth your time? Personally I didn't find many solutions to this, did you?
A TTY like you get in your "ALT+F2" is a new login/session shell and uses .bash_profile rather than .bashrc (which is invoked when you create a new bash process in an already existing login session like when you open a terminal window). There are lots of moving pieces, but I've found the easiest way to get the same behavior in both is to have my .bash_profile source my .bashrc.
Metaverse concept in itself, as a utopian/distopian/whatever concept is not bullshit, since it's a concept.

Metaverse implementation under the auspices of Mark Zuckerberg and the Facebook machinery, is going to be complete and utter bull/horse/pig/.../shit and going to do much more harm to society, if it picks up, than Facebook is ever capable of.
Exactly. At some point you realize that explicit callbacks, async, coroutines, threads are all related.
As someone who operates mainly in Python, I am so jealous. As far as I'm aware [1], you have to re-write your tooling to take advantage of async in Python. Does anyone have any insight into why Python async doesn't work the same way? Does it come down to fundamental language differences?

Today's labor is different in that the individual is commoditized. You're indentured to your client, who then accrues a debt to be discharged in an agreed upon time with various contingencies appended, like showing up on time and regardless of completion of your given task (10 baskets/8h) you're nonetheless expected to put in your contracted time.

Basket weaving done in your home, with performance left to your own scruples, and a personalized schedule is leagues different than slaving away for someone else.

Eric Schmidt Discusses the Dangers of A.I
It's an interesting show and worth the watch to get a feel for it, even if you only sit for the first season.

It was a fresh take on the genre. Had hints/references of lots of past human conflicts (Iraq, wwii, ...). Lots of alliance forming and back stabbing. Political intrigue. Lots of conflicting factions: Colonists, invaders, collaborators (Vichy France), insurgents, counter insurgents, ... plus others - each with different goals and methods.

It goes through periods of police state, anarchy, surveillance state, offgrid living, advanced tech, and the normalcy of life during all of these periods.

It's not perfect by any means, dialog is about the level you'd expect, and definitely some plot holes, but honestly one of the more creative unique and enjoyable approaches in the genre I've seen in a while.

There is one high stakes scene that takes place in a bar that contains characters interacting at probably 4 levels of deception that is fascinating to watch. Trying to not blow their cover at each level, while still trying to complete their objective, and then possibly swap sides during the interaction without making it obvious. It was choreographed to almost like watching a dance.

Really enjoyable show. I could seen an alternate world where if it were produced for HBO (and with their budget) it being one of the more talked about shows of the past few years.

Ok, but its better than that if you are in the correct index... and index funds are based on company sizes. If you hold any SP500 index, you are a tesla holder by proxy.

Don't get me wrong, index funds are good but if your cost basis is 20% and your additions are weakly scheduled (ie if you are > some % at a 1 month interval you add to the cost basis to make it 20% up)... it is pretty safe.

I feel as though people who view risk on the market as not understanding that options, uncovered options and all kinds of other money-wizardry are the things people refer to as actually risky. You can lose your whole investment and there is a drop-dead date with options.
I enjoyed it too (I’d love to just light my files on fire when I’m not happy with a draft).

But I don’t see “email” going anywhere for a long time. At its core, it is text information and serves as a record of a transaction, usually related to the real world. If we think VR will take us past email, it means setting up a new standard for communication that is somehow better and will have enough network effects to take over from email (e.g. - everyone will need to migrate to VR before abandoning email).

So processing email more effectively is an open problem of VR. VR isn’t going to hook into our brains more than video or audio or text, so I view it as about how someone interacts with that in a VR environment.

So I think the way we process things will matter and could be massively improved. For example, you could have a “workbench” for insurance related items. Where you go and all of the things you were working on and relevant communications are neatly organized and sandboxed. You effectively wouldn’t have to put anything “away”. It would just be sitting there on a desk until you returned to it.

Training for work environments would be amazing - you could copy the environment for your employees and it would be intuitive. Right now companies often give people just a vanilla machine with basic office apps and expect them to find their optimal setup.
But was "normal" based on an earlier meter reading with him in the room? Or a proven baseline that applies in general?

Having inventory on the shelf is only an issue if it cannot be sold, which would only be possible if car sales never resume, an incredibly improbable outcome to the crisis. Everyone knew people would be back to buying cars soon enough. On the other hand cancelling orders carries great risk as no one is going to wait around for you to get more stock, if you miss your opportunity to make a sale it's gone, hence the mad scramble by auto manufacturers to reverse course once it became clear they had miscalculated.
It sounds profoundly unappealing to me but the leisure time has its charms.

I hear you. But it is also about effectively processing information in that environment.
I've somewhat deliberately left the pulverising mechanism unspecified.

But the point remains: under the influence of the cloud's own gravity a cloud of merely separated particles will re-coalesce. You can look up in the night sky much of the time to see an example of this yourself, the Earth's moon.

And again, depending on the mechanism, a fair fraction of particles, quite possibly / probably the majority, will approach the original centroid of the mass.

In practice, pulverising planets and/or planetoids is likely a challenging proposition. Early experimentation on animal models tends to support this hypothesis:

I got bitten by a dog that looked at me from six meters away when I came out of the owner's car (with the owner driving! We were chatting amicably at the time), then with no other warning than standing very still for two seconds ran at me and bit my leg to the point of bleeding.

Then, when I met it again three years later, tried to do the same thing but by that point they'd wised up and anchored its leash to something. Although, you know, maybe there existed a more constructive solution.

And my cousin was bit three times (required stitches) by a dog she never approached, and backed away from carefully after it became obvious that it was unfriendly, running away after it bit her the first time. She did accidentally enter the owner's property, though, while jogging. The property boundary wasn't marked.

I don't think you can generalize this stuff, unless you've made a detailed survey of the conditions concerning situations where dogs have bit people.
I just ran your example and I'm getting `puts results` line to output "Hello", just as the program intends. I'm not sure why you're getting a different result.

I have the same question as parent and I'd love to read more about this distinction. Please do blog about it.
As an old timer, it's always a bit tough to read takes like this from folks who missed the early days of the web. Obviously nobody's age is their fault, and new perspectives will own the future. But, as we said back then, your radical ideas have occurred to others [0].

Since everyone was fresh off Snow Crash, the early web was full of protocol drafts like VRML that were aimed at bringing about an immersive version of the decentralized creator space that was already blowing our minds. Since all that content was too fragmented to make the experience immersive, people built MUDs and early MMOs like Second Life to concentrate a critical mass of content. So why didn't this come to define the web? IMO:

- Nobody cracked how to jumpstart a real creator economy. Protocols only survive if people have incentives to participate, which is why the web ended up growing around frustratingly centralized pillar services with nefarious network effects.

- In a world of freely connected experiences, "immersive" isn't all that attractive. I let individual websites define how they present themselves to me, but only begrudgingly. Who would I give permission to organize that info into a physical metaphor, and why? This is especially true in a mobile first world, where my ability to shove a web based experience into my pocket is really valuable. Virtual reality is a constraint, not a new medium.

If "this time is different" it's probably because of the first bullet above. There is a generation of digital creators that is much more prepared to create immersive content than 20 years ago. And the biggest social media clearly believe they've learned how to organize them into an economy.

But it won't succeed because it's a new idea, or because we have better VR headsets. There needs to be a better argument about why it is more compelling than the freeform web.

Size-wise, it is very similar to mine, a cheap Itek Patriot Mini, which seems just a bit smaller than yours. 3.5" bays take space.

I don't care a lot about space either since it's under my desk. But I think it would be easy to create a smaller uatx case by dropping fans/3.5" bays/other things that a miniitx drops.

And a juicy (and damning) tidbit from the parent's second link - the San Diego (local civilian) Fire Dept, arriving at the ship's pier 30 minutes after FedFire, and at least 45 minutes after the ship's crew knew of the fire, and knowing nothing of the ship's layout or systems, and having to (in effect) ask passing sailors for directions - was the first organization to actually get a hose to the fire, and start doing something useful - before the fire grew out of control.

jwithington's comment about the whole fire response (presumably outside of the municipal crews) being a "clownshow" is profoundly understated.
So why did the author of "No, The Metaverse is Not Bullshit" choose to present his thesis using mostly text with a few images? Would not using three.js to create a rich web 3D experience have been a more compelling argument for the future growth of rich web 3D experiences?

If you provide the GET parameter "source" (which means you try /the-url?source"), it prints a pretty-printed version of the source code.

So basically it allows the reader to read the source directly without hunting it down on github of something.
Those motors don’t need to keep minuscule tracks lined up with increasingly small read/write heads. A dremel spins at 40k RPM but even though seek times are low total storage is also low.
The main thing that needs decoupling for me is the idea of _a_ Metaverse, which is what the author focuses on as the evolution of the internet, and Facebook's efforts to be a leading player in the space and define what the Metaverse is.

As much as I would love to believe that there is a benevolent future where Meta only owns part of the decentralized Metaverse, I'm not sure I believe that now. Facebook is a profit making organization that has worked hard to be _the_ place to go to online, and it fights hard to keep that status. Facebook bought Instagram and WhatsApp. It's working hard to compete with TikTok. A Facebook account is required to use an Oculus Quest 2. I don't see it quietly accepting a part of the decentralized pie. I see the company working hard to both lead and define the space, because that's where it sees the growth and the money.

Maybe the Metaverse isn't bullshit, but what Facebook is trying to create probably is.

Tangentially, the physical labor jobs I had when younger never really tired me out the way that the mental/bureaucratic/political job I have now does.

Physical work actually energized me, I mean this is all confirmed today as well, we know all the benefits exercise brings on well being.

There's something about desk jobs that is frankly soul sucking and literally mentally draining in a way where when the day ends, it's as if you suffer from temporary depression. Even getting motivated to do things you want to do is hard, resorting to the laziest activity is often what happens, phone, social media, television. Sometimes I can't even get myself to play a video game and I love video games.

And when the night comes, you'd think sleep is what you need, but that same day of desk job actually gives you insomnia, falling asleep is hard, and while you sleep it's as if all of that mental activity is still happening in your head from the work day.

If physical labor work paid me as well and provided the same benefits, I'd probably switch back to it honestly.

That is likely how your state selects jurors but again it's not because you have a right to a jury of your peers (for any definition of peers). In the US the only right is to an impartial jury, which is indeed what voir dire tries to do, which has been ruled to be possible even with pre-filtering the juror pool.

Jury questionnaires are made to provide a background for the attorneys during voir dire not as an aptitude test, as such they do not have an objective pass/fail score rather subjective information to allow attorneys to try to form the most impartial jury they can out of the pool. While the attorney could try to make an assumption of comprehension level based on the responses in the questionnaire

1) The attorney still has to consider lack of comprehension a negative thing for their chances at the case

2) The attorney has to be willing to use strikes for this reason vs other uses such as removing blatantly biased jurors

3) Even when both of the prior hold true the number of perceived "fails" may be higher than the number of allowed strikes. Therefore the ability to strike some from the pool for comprehension level is not the same as the pool being pre filtered for comprehension level.

To be clear the GP proposal is the universal application an additional comprehension test one has to pass to be part of the pool prior to voir dire, not just that someone with low comprehension is allowed to be struck for that reason.

Think of the proposal being like if your state randomly chose anybody instead of pre-filtering for eligible voters and GP proposed "we should filter out children and etc from the pool" with your response being "voir dire does that". Voir dire in that case may allow for the possibility of some of those people being filtered at the cost of a less filtered qualified jury of adults but it wouldn't be a replacement for pre-filtering. The same is true of the proposal on a minimum comprehension pre-filter, whether you agree with the pre-filter or not it's not the same as having the ability to filter some people in voir dire.
