Their stated reason for not buying more houses for the rest of this year is that they ran out of people who can fix the houses up before flipping them. https://slate.com/technology/2021/10/ibuying-zillow-purchase... So maybe they could sell these houses for more money if they just had the workers available to increase the value of the houses.
> It is the capital that Marcus has to offer that makes business owners listen to him

It would be fun to take on the challenge of converting the author to socialism, but I'm not sure if the author is making the call at the end of the article in good faith.

Related to what I quoted-- many, perhaps the majority, of reality shows don't rely on offers of capital injections to improve the social problems that plague business owners. Gordon Ramsey usually breaks through because he's loudly yelling his credentials at some stubborn restaurant owner. Or the bar rescue guy is yelling to the entire staff that the bartenders were stealing drinks to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars (as well as yelling his credentials to them). I mean they obviously tie in ads for various products that they give away to the owners, but a) that's never central to the business and b) I don't think they do that on every single show like that.

Human credibility and peer pressure exist in a socialist setting. That in no way is an argument for socialism, but it is at least an argument that one of the author's premises is probably mistaken-- i.e., that the guru needs capital in order to convince a failing owner to turn their business around.

So, would the author care to refine the argument? If so I'd be willing to take the challenge further.

He/she is right, though, polls say.
Oftentimes as in the definition of frequently or in many instances. There are no stats of it being anywhere near a majority though. It is a classic subterfuge trick.

Among the reasons cybercriminals love DDoS:

2)
It gives them a convenient smokescreen.
Cybercriminals like to create confusion - and they sometimes turn to DDoS attacks to distract and misdirect resource-deprived organizations from their primary goal: to pillage sensitive data. DDoS attacks are optimal subterfuge because they create noise and chaos that will attract the brunt of attention from your IT staff, leaving wide open the opportunity for your foes to simultaneously infiltrate your network and mask data exfiltration.

3)
It can be the digital pretext to a physical attack.
Sometimes a DDoS attack is merely a means to an end. Earlier this week our SpiderLabs team revealed a web-based vulnerability in a popular brand of printers that could result in denial-of-service attacks. Our researchers theorized that attackers could launch the printer attack and show up at the target organization pretending to be the "technician" called to fix the problem. This impersonation could net them direct physical access to IT resources that they might never have been able to access remotely.

glfw is very widely known because it's usually one of the recommended libraries to use when starting out graphics programming. It basically a cross platform library to create a window and initialize an opengl context .. or something like that. (It's been _many_ years since I last used it).
Unfortunately the app won't even compile on the simulator, it seems like some of the AR libraries aren't actually available when building for the simulator.

I presume the sellers are happy that they have been paid the inflated prices; and if Zillow eventually lists the houses at a loss then it comes out as effectively as paying a subsidy to local homeowners.
> I sold my home in 2019. At the time there was already a frenzy, multiple bidders, buying on day one. Just like today. The guy who bought my house went 30% over asking. I wasn't willing to be rushed, so just sold and didn't buy.

Cool story, but what does that have to do the root causes of rising home prices? What exactly are you trying to argue here?

> or other limits on investment homes

Limits on investment homes makes renting more expensive, the same way limiting the production of cars would make cars more expensive. You are literally advocating shifting the supply curve further to the right. Every post you make further proves my point about people not understanding basic supply and demand.
A large portion of homes are being bought and listed as rental properties. And whilst the overwhelming majority are purchased by individual investors, a non-negligible amount is via LLCs, LLPs, and corporations.

This has the same effect of complete removal from the supply-side as the home is no longer considered part of the 'for-sale' pool.

This leads to artificially inflated prices for homes that are actually for sale, since rental properties are removed from that pool.
I find it pretty odd to speculate that they are experiencing a very specific failure mode of a particular database. Do you even know whether they use Postgres?

Bash is much older than JavaScript. If it was going to turn into a real programming language, it would have by now. It hasn't.

Also, JavaScript really is not a very good programming language. We are just stuck with it because it's the only language the browser understands. (Well, until recently: things are going to change with the introduction of wasm).

But for the shell, we're not stuck with any one language. Whatever you want to do can be programmed in your favorite language. You can easily write a python script instead of a bash function.

The most "GM-like" experience I've encountered in a modern commercial product is the Kontakt factory library. It has almost complete General MIDI 1 coverage, plus a handful of random additions (a dozen electric pianos, samples recorded from some vintage synths, an SATB choir singing six different vowels, several drum kits...)

The quality is good, but it's not in the same league as specialised libraries. There are usually only two or three velocity layers (for example, the choir can only sing a subdued "aaa" or an intense "AAA"). The orchestral instruments only come with a few articulations, and the guitars and pop brass only provide one articulation each. None of the instruments have sampled legato.

Unfortunately, I think this is probably the quality ceiling for a sample library with good General MIDI coverage. If you were to add more velocity layers, articulations and legato transitions, the number of samples would start to grow exponentially, and the cost of the library would grow to match. I'm not sure there's any way around it.

I went through a phase where I was trying to put together a really comprehensive collection of samples, but in hindsight it was a fool's errand - you'll get diminishing returns fast, unless you're willing to spend huge amounts of money. Accurately emulating a live performer is a nice option to have, but it isn't actually a requirement for making good music. Huge amounts of excellent music has been made using synthesiser presets, or using instrument samples which would be considered "cheap" or "low-quality" nowadays. As long as you're willing to adapt your compositions to the instruments you have available, rather than stubbornly writing string melodies which could only be performed by a real-life violinist, you'll do well.
China did well after adopting a capitalist economic model. Not so well after adopting a communist economic model. Over 50 million dying just from starvation is basically the worst you can possibly be. Insane top down command like killing all the sparrows or collectivizing farms, or pulling nails out of furniture so that little villages can make steel describes the insanity of that approach. It had a shelf life of about 40 years.

They still maintain the party dictatorship.

Really what matters for dominance is a disciplined party apparatus that seizes power in some kind of coup or revolution and then rules the country with an iron fist.

The party may use a justification of envy -- appealing to people's anger that others have more than they do -- or it may use religion, or moral arguments, or national pride arguments. But those are all instrumental to the underlying aim of power.

Once you are in power, you can impose capitalism or communism or some mix. If communism doesn't work, you can discard it and look for something better.

It's interesting that many on the left just dropped working class issues like a used shirt and refocused on race with extreme ease. For me personally, that's how I distinguish between a group that wants power as opposed to a group that is advocating for some policy profile. If they can switch out the policy profile and replace it with something different, then they were never that interested in policy to begin with.

The problem is a variation of that, which makes it possible, as explained in the post. The large caveat is that the accuracy is probabilistic, and it’s expected that the receiver is getting many 1-bit from various sensors that are all measuring the same phenomena.

It’s a bit like the concept of dithering in images, where visually we can represent shades of grays just by using many 1 bit pixels.

> Zuckerberg calls the metaverse "an embodied internet where you're in the experience, not just looking at it."

A lot of the criticism is valid but it seems to me that many critics haven't experienced "embodiment". To me, that is the killer feature. Without it, the author is right, we already have the internet. I have a Oculus Quest that I don't use because there is not enough of that sense of embodiment. When the field of vision is extended to the periphery and the resolution is enough to not have the screen door effect, it will be much more likely to feel embodied. It's kind of mind blowing actually and the source of much of the quasi-religious fervor when some talk about VR.

Sounds like you didn't read the linked thread. Elon proposes donating $6B, which is 2% of his net worth, if the UN can demonstrate (which it claims) that it will solve world hunger.
For one thing, Elon is right -- a donation of $6B won't do much for world hunger. As is explained in the thread, hunger is a problem of politics and distribution, not money.
Furthermore, losing $6B would not have much effect on Elon's worth at all. Only 2% of it, right? Just the stock market going up and down affects his worth a lot more than that.
Thankyou, yes, that's exactly what I was getting at.

Ok. There is a pattern of people being punished disproportionately for saying or doing things that someone interpreted to be racially offensive or inappropriate, but weren't deserving of punishment from my perspective.

The principle underlying the pattern seems to be "if you offended a member of a marginalized group, you must suffer consequences regardless of context or any defense you may have for yourself." I disagree with this principle and I disagree with downplaying the consequences that have been doled out on its basis.

Let me know if you find this thesis interesting enough to discuss, question, or dispute. Otherwise I think I've made myself clear enough at this point.

How do you know which poll I am referring to? Actually I said "polls" and there have been several polls at least this year. For instance one in May where the majority of people (65%) where against gender-neutral words. Interestingly a poll made by the the same institute (Infratest Dimap) the year before had only 56% against gender-neutral words. So I conclude the opposition is growing.
Edit: I am a bit sad that I got downvoted. What's wrong with a contrarian opinion? I'm not suggesting we should all pick stocks. I'm saying there's not enough data to know conclusively that one couldn't outperform the market.

> What are the odds that you are of those 1%? (Hint: you're probably not in that group.)

Again, this was research on day trading (for which I didn't supply the source, sorry for that). It was not about buying and holding with at least for a 5 year horizon. That's what I meant with we have too little data. Day trading is not investing.

> What are the odds that you manage to pick those few stocks that produce those returns?

As I've learned with poker: only play on tables where you see fish. Which translates to: only play games that you are sure that you can win. The hard part is to not enter any games that you're not fully sure about of winning. And yes, there are not many games that you can win at all. But when you see one, you go at it aggressive and win. It's easier to say than to do it (based on my poker experience).

I'm not saying that people can beat the market. But I still believe even after all this that it's hard to say that people aren't beating the market. We need data of actual accounts over long time horizons. IMO that's the only way that question can be answered. Unfortunately, that's unrealistic since it's a feature that the stock market is anonymous and private to other market participants.

I feel there's a feedback loop going on where everyone echoes each other that you can't beat the market. And I feel that echo is stronger than the actual evidence. Don't get me wrong, the evidence that I see is quite compelling. But it isn't foolproof and it has many gaps. It's about as compelling as the efficient market hypothesis. Yes, in general markets are efficient, but why does it take 5 to 15 minutes for information to be incorporated into a stable price? That means if you'd trade at minute 2, you're almost guaranteed to make money [2]. I don't have sources for this, but these are my observations. This is even more true in the crypto markets where academics are saying that markets aren't fully efficient.

The only thing I can say with regards to the whole "you can't outperform the market" rhetoric is this: if you want to invest safely, then don't try to outperform the market. There is enough research that it's a dangerous endeavour. So is starting a startup (from a financial standpoint). However, that doesn't mean it's impossible to outperform the market, or create a great financially successful startup for that matter.

[1] According to Graham, he mentions it in his book The Intelligent Investor.

[2] Every time when I look at day price information and see a news event priced in, I notice it takes at least 5 minutes in many cases. It's never instant.
Right. Almost all the argument is not founded on the statistical claim.
> You seem to be missing this part:

No I am not missing that I just think that JIT done right (no true scottsman) doesn't require stable flow. At best it needs predictable flows and in the current economic system where a lot of information is lost at the company border => the only way to ensure predictability in our current system is have steadyness if things pass company borders.

If we are making statements about how our economic system ought to be it we should consider either flexible pricing that actually reflects information at the company border (with all the Pareto front guarantees that can bring us) or cross company optimization of the economy (providing better guarantees).
