> Hell, as a yearly income, that's poor much less a networth.

Not really, because this is primarily young people who are building savings. By retirement age, the savings are much higher even for the median household. Even in the 45-54 cohort, the median networth is 168K. By the time you reach 55-64, median HH income is $213K. Post-retirement, 65-74, median network is $266K. Then it starts to decline as people spend down their savings, so 75 and over it's $254K.

I mean, I guess you can call whatever you want "poor", but we have standard definitions for these things.

And an income of $58K is not "poor" for any age, but FYI median household income for all ages is north of $70K.
I wanted to start writing fiction for years, but I never made much progress. The thing that finally got me going was the (implicit) realization that I'd been censoring myself, and that the kind of fiction I like to write isn't really what I thought it would be.

> The remedy is simple, although it does involve a short, sharp shock of frankness with oneself. Stop lying about who you are, and write the things that are actually inside you. If, deep down, you want to write about misunderstood teen gymnasts with pet magic lions, your literary fiction about sad suburbanites will not easily come out of you, and it will probably not come off well.

This is great advice. Maybe not so easy to internalize for people stuck on the other side of the wall, but worth thinking about.
> I'm Jewish. I'm not a Zionist.

It's way easier to be anti Zionist from the comfy U.S right? You get all the benefits of appearing super moral and progressive and none of the risks. What's it to you if Israelis are (again) thrown out to become refugees all over the place. You've got zero skin the game. For us Israeli Jews end of Zionism probably means being refugees somewhere (hopefully Europe will agree to take a big portion but who knows). Sure, some Israelis (not all, not even the majority) have European citizenships but we all see how lovely it is being Jewish in Europe.
I mean, I'm all for the U.S to cease existing and become Indian - how does that sound? Give all the land back to the indigenous people and the underprivileged.

The on board battery was used on the Apple 2 GS, the 16 bit successor to the 8 bit Apple 2.

The GS used a 65816 CPU, and the Apple 1 and 8 bit Apple 2 computers used 6502 and 65C02 CPU chips.

A 65802 can be installed into the 8 bit computers, with the 64K address space limitation imposed by the hardware.

A bit of digging can get one an Apple 8 but computer for a few hundred bucks, sometimes cheaper, depending.

I got my //e Platinum a decade ago for $150'ish from Apple Rescue of Denver. At that time, it came with one disk drive, Super Serial card, and the 128K / 80 column display card.

Anyone interested in these machines could skip getting a disk drive, though using floppies a few times is fun, and go for a emulation card. I do recommend the CFFA 3000 card, if available. Those can take disk images right from an ordinary USB flash drive.
The $100m Endowment was their hedge against donations drying up, being a big enough cash hoard to allow them to stay online indefinitely if donations dropped to zero. It is now fully funded. I wonder how many people even realise this is the case, and will carry on donating under the false impression Wikipedia needs their help to survive.
I mostly disagree; I think the article hits it at something pretty true. Granted, "liar" is a bit of a strong term. But insincere -- definitely.

In particular I think the 'lie' most people who are trying to write but can't get it to happen are telling themselves is that they _want_ to be writing at all. Most of the time people want to want to write, but they don't actually _want to_. If you truly want to do something, it happens effortlessly (barring some problematic anxiety getting in the way). The rest of the time, you just wish you wanted to.

The distinction between "wanting to do something" and "wanting to want to do something" has been very helpful in my life. Particularly because it helps me not feel bad when I can't get myself to do something. Usually giving up on wanting-to-want and doing something else for a while eventually leads to the actual desire coming back, once it's freed from the anxiety of trying to force it.

This is what you get when part of Apple's Services Revenue is at risk . Finally doing something that it should have been since Day 1. Along with AppleCare+ Monthly option. Instead it took them the whole 2019 and 2020 before they act. I would imagine similar play will be made for Education market as well. As they are battling with Chromebook and now Windows 11 SE.

I wasn't aware of the credit the AA inventor gives for his fixing drinking problem to LSD - that's certainly an interesting story, From what I understand the connections one might make considering the religious tones AA has, the common idea of what a high dose LSD experience might entail and the fact that LSD and other psychedelics have proven effective against addiction all together match the science so far - tied together by the interesting fact that for people suffering with depression or addiction who seek out help through psychedelics, religious or spiritual experience, not necessarily dose, is what associates with life improvements including long term. Those who did not have what felt to them a deeply significant experience did not reap the same benefits.

I think though the psychedelic community can be somewhat pseudo-sciency (they were of course driven out of main stream science), the reference to psychedelics as a healing tool is apt. It is not the mere ingestion of psychedelics which helps people, but the intense and vivid realizations, visions, and feelings they come to experience which deeply affects them. Its a subtle difference - but I hypothesize that if you put people under anesthesia and gave them a high dose the long term results would be measurable weaker than those who were lucid for the experience.
A few years ago Backblaze started offering B2, a storage API priced at $0.005/GB/month, and dirt cheap egress fees unlike the big cloud offerings.

You'd save money switching to a client that supports B2, they have a list on the site, though I'm not sure which provide decent version management.
In reality it's a lot higher than 6%. You have to understand that the CPI is utter crap. They have continually adjusted the definition of it over time to make inflation seem not as bad as it actually is. It doesn't include house prices, equity prices, college tuition, etc. And the number generated from the remaining categories is dragged down by cheap software and electronics.

In reality I'd say inflation is closer to 60% than 6%.

The gaslighting is unbelievable. Now they are saying that spending trillions in ridiculous handouts will LOWER inflation!? Are you freaking kidding me?

Small nitpick, they are not full backups. I am continually discovering new gaps in what gets backed up.

One example: apps that you built onto your device as a developer. Get a new phone and restore from backup? That app is gone now.

I did not know Chile had a desert until I found myself in it, while motorcycling down to Ushuaia.

It was incredible - a Mars landscape, as far as the eye could see. We would pick up pallets by the side of the road and make a fire at night. Desolate, and of course amazing stars at night.

You could ride 120mph quite easily. That photo of the road going straight to the horizon is what it looked like, the whole way through.

Also, running into el Mano del Desierto was just surreal. A Buddha hand, just standing in the desert?!

Gas stations were plentiful enough, and clean, as I remember.

We rode over some small mountains to see Salar de Uyuni, rather than pay the fee for Americans to enter Bolivia, which was expensive at the time. There we ran out of food and water, and barely made it back over the border into Chile before running out of gas. Oil workers rescued us and gassed us up, declining payment on the grounds that this was hilarious.

We went to a little town which was an oasis and crashed in a hotel for a couple of days.

The south of the country is much greener, and full of vineyards, which they are very proud of. Around the middle they share mountains with Argentina, and the Mendoza wine region, which produces pretty much all South American wine.

Any odds, I can definitely recommend visiting Atacama.

The Programma 101 was a programmable calculator. Even though it could do more, out of the box, than many of those kits (built-in printer and card reader), I wouldn’t call it a personal computer.

But then I barely would call the Apple-1 that, either. You bought a PCB, optionally pre-assembled that booted into a system monitor. Even though you could directly connect a keyboard and a television (huge improvements; competing products still had toggle switches and indicator lights) that’s not something you could sell to ‘normal’ people.

The Apple II added a power supply, a keyboard (meaning buyers didn’t need to go to some dump to find a keyboard that worked or could be made to work with the system), a case and Basic in ROM. That, for me, made it a personal computer. If you bought it, you could go home, plug it in, and start tinkering.
Do you really think that's the reason? Or do you hope it is?
The whole idea is to not indiscriminately use electricity when the spot price goes up.
That depends on how much you value your time. I have had Hondas for the past 25 years that have not required major repairs for anything. Worst was having to get the automatic transmission solenoid replaced on a Pilot with 240k+ miles on it. In your world that would be 6 transmissions over three cars over 25 years; there's no way I would make that trade, since those 6 transmission failures represent significant lost time (opportunity and time costs when the car breaks down, getting it back and forth to the repair shop, etc., etc.)
I am guessing the 25 mg does here is of pure psilocybin, which is about 2.5 g of dried mushrooms.
6% is only looking at the CPI. Factor in equity prices, housing prices, tuition prices, and suddenly there is a lot more reason to panic.
It was useful, but they don't care. The same can be said about too many "changes" these days.

Bah.
There will still be comments. On tutorial videos they're a great source of information.
Really hits home for me! I kinda think it's honest enough that it genuinely only applies to some people, whereas -- in their own framing -- if you tried to make something palatable to everyone, you'd have trouble writing it (and it wouldn't hit _anyone_ very hard, probably, either).
> You aren't citing a "different metric". You are citing an unscientific internet poll by Bankrate.com

Again, this seems obtuse. It is interesting that your inference of a single poll ignores the many (well publicized) savings studies, that are regularly conducted by a wide number of organizations.

> I am citing the gold-standard study of household finances conducted by the Federal Reserve regularly since the 1970s

That's nice. Metrics adopted in the 1970s based on data from even earlier decades doesn't universally inspire the confidence that you seem to feel. I'd offer that metrics that well reflect the ~entirety of America who faces a meaningful risk of losing housing/medicine/food would likely be the metrics that most matter to people facing those risks.

Otherwise it feels similar to hearing the unemployment rate is 4.9% while >24% of 16-64 aren't working.

I'm about to go full vegetarian with these food prices.

Beef has been too expensive for years, the only beef I've bought for years from grocery stores is bulk pack ground on sale but now on sale is $7/lb.

Chicken breast has been my main staple, on sale usually for $2-3/lb, now it's on sale at $5/lb for the cheap bulk packs.

Around me it's a wash to cook at home or eat out (at small restaurants/food trucks). I expect restaurants to jack up the prices more soon because they've been fairly sticky.
It also used to form the basis for Redcode, the file format used by RED digital cinema cameras. Not sure if the current version is still based on JPEG2000 though.
If you want to go this route, I recommend exploring react-native as well.

Microsoft maintains desktop versions for Windows and macOS which are pretty functional. And you don't need to create 2 entirely different UI layers (which kind of defeats the purpose IMHO) - you'll be able to share 90% + (closer to 99% if you don't care about re-arranging content but still getting native controls for each platform).
Google became a household name without any extensions and even without navbar searching. They offered a superior search engine with good results, and everyone visited google.com to search. That is how “google it” became a household term and they achieved their 2 trillion dollar magnitude.

Duckduckgo worked the same way. Everyone visited DuckDuckGo.com to search, enjoyed good search results with their privacy factor. There were no extensions or scripts to start, it was landing page driven.

You are trying to circumvent the “hard work” aspect of creating a competitive search engine. You need to offer good search results from your landing page. Your domain is simple to type and shouldn’t be hard to remember for anyone on earth.

Stop trying to skip the important steps of having a search engine and trying to fly directly to the top.

Also, your api calls are ludicrous. Duckduckgo touts privacy and works without JavaScript enabled. Again, you need to stop trying to be google right out of the gate. Just offer a good product and allow people to use it as they will.
You have a strange definition of value. I'd wager Wikipedia hasn't prevented a single child dying of hunger, let alone millions.
Again, I'm not talking about storing electricity. Just storing heat or cold.

If you have a hot water heater, you already have a heat storage device that can be used to shift demand.

I cant believe they are moving forward with "generics". Programmers on average already tend to make things more complicated than they should be. Now every single module in the ecosystem is gonna use more abstractions, generics to fit their social environment. Its well known that abstractions are the devil. How many modules are gonna use generics when they should not? Most? Programmers are bad at programming and they are social herdy beast - they are human. Their code must follow the social norm. The consequences of that could be terrible for the language.

I dont understand why they move forward with this. Go is absolutely awesome, it's a gem, adding generics is too risky. This is such a bad news for me (i didnt know). I'm trully affected.

I’m going to be a little more charitable and assume that the author found writing easy once they got over their roadblocks.

Edit: that link seems to justify the title but it doesn’t fit the main article.

Seriously misleading title though. A default is a well-defined event. “Defaults” implies that it has happened. “Teetering” is something else. Needs fixing.

Are you arguing that Reagan reined in the military industrial complex? While you may be able to plausibly argue that he reduced government waste in some areas (emphasis on MAY), there is zero room for an argument that he somehow cut the fat on military spending.

Under his administration, military spending (deficit spending, mind you, none of this was paid for) increased:

"Reagan significantly increased public expenditures, primarily the Department of Defense, which rose (in constant 2000 dollars) from $267.1 billion in 1980 (4.9% of GDP and 22.7% of public expenditure) to $393.1 billion in 1988 (5.8% of GDP and 27.3% of public expenditure); most of those years military spending was about 6% of GDP, exceeding this number in 4 different years. All these numbers had not been seen since the end of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War in 1973."

Almost correct, but crypto isn't the real focus. It's whatever export controls prevent someone from easily shipping a computer outside of the US; I remember buying a CPU years ago and the retailer being extremely specific about not then shipping it out of the country.
I resonate with your second paragraph. The time necessary to file things with precision is not worth it personally.

I just name each document “yyyy-mm-did - description” and dump them into general categories like “finance”, “health records”, “misc”. If any folder gets unwieldy, I will create folders inside for each year and any additional folders that semantically make sense.
